Easy choice

President Biden has spent more than half his 81 years in public service and is known for his knowledge of government, honesty, integrity, devotion and love for family, and benevolence even toward those that choose to bully and exploit his few shortcomings. Donald Trump is known for his long career of running from the law due to corrupt and shady personal and business practices.

Was he confused?

The accused shooter of Donald Trump was a registered Republican. Was he confused as to who he was supporting?

Unfit for office

Mississippi should be deeply ashamed of the most reprehensible person representing us in Congress. It starts with his own district being often reported as the poorest in Mississippi and perhaps the country. He also ran the meanest, most partisan Congressional “investigation.” He followed up by trying to remove Secret Service protection from Donald Trump. And one of his hirelings wrote her regrets that Trump wasn’t assassinated in Pennsylvania. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we need to remove Bennie Thompson.

The difference

When Donald Trump was president, I had wiggle room. With President Biden in charge, I’ve been visiting food pantries.

What’s next

Democrats are acknowledging the Donald Trump win will be a near landslide, so to save face, they are going to allow President Biden to run. They figure they’ll have an excuse for the loss and four years to rebuild. Trouble is, J. D. Vance will be the incumbent vice president and he’ll steamroll to victory. Prosperity is just around the corner.

DEI

The head of the Secret Service had only two jobs to do: protect the president and fill a DEI quota. She only fulfilled one of them.

Shad should go

Shad White wants Rep. Bennie Thompson to resign. Resign? If anyone should resign it should be White. He’s been giving, and continues to give, shade to Phil Bryant for years in the biggest DHS scandal in US history. Resign? Look in the mirror.
