Free money

What’s going to happen to paying off the student loans? Vice President Harris will be giving $25k to first-time homebuyers. New president, new free giveaway?

Powerful

Wow. Vice President Harris has “destroyed” San Francisco, the state of California and, according to “The truth” writer, America, Europe and the Middle East. Now that is one powerful woman.

A suggestion

Ted Cruz could change his political prospects in just five minutes: Shave.

Hypocrites

Eating animals is an American tradition. We eat pigs, cows, birds, deer, everything but dogs and cats. So, what’s with the outrage? Animals are kept in horrible conditions to produce the numbers to satisfy our diet. I guess your conscience accepts this because these animals are not pets with names

If that’s dumb ...

Vice President Harris graduated from law school, passed the bar exam, became a district attorney and then the Attorney General of California before becoming vice president. Donald Trump calling her dumb is beyond dumb.

FOX News

I have been criticized for watching FOX News, with someone saying I did because I’m a Republican. Anyway, how about we get rid of FOX News? Then we can watch only news sources the Democrats want us to watch? Kind of sounds like socialist thinking?

Voter fraud

To stop voter fraud in national elections, pass a federal, not state, law that states anyone convicted of voting who is not a citizen can face up to five years in a federal prison.
