C’mon, NASCAR

I”m not a fan of staged racing in the Daytona 500. It’s a bit baffling and seems designed primarily to increase time available for commercials. Bring back the good old days.

Budget cuts

$20 million for President Trump to go to the Super Bowl, only to spend his time tweeting and then leaving before halftime. Then, another $20 million to go to the Daytona 500. This is budget cutting?

Messaging

For four years, all we heard was fake news and voting fraud. Now I guess the cheating has stopped because President Trump won. I can’t wait for mid-terms.

What about ...

Elon, Elon, Elon. What about George Soros? If the whiners would have had the courage to pull back the curtain next to Joe Biden, what kind of excuse would be offered up?

A real politician

Jeremy England for governor. I love any politician that will stand up for what he believes in, and not necessarily what his party tells him to stand up for.

Be careful

Delusional Democrats are trying to attack Elon Musk. They see him as an easy target, because he wasn’t elected. The richest man on the planet isn’t scared. They should be scared of him.

Weed it out

The amount of fraud found by the Government Accountability Office says is staggering. Yet, Democrats are crying with their hair on fire. And their only legitimate complaint is a data breach? Really?

Not right

No one is objecting to eliminating widespread government waste. No one wants workers who can’t or won’t do their job to stay on the government payroll. The problem causing outrage is who has been appointed to do it and the methods, often illegal or unconstitutional, with which it is being done.

A real problem

I would like Elon Musk to investigate Big Pharma and health insurance companies.

Batter up

Football season is over, which can only mean one thing: It’s almost baseball season in Biloxi. Looking forward to a season of Shuckers baseball.

King cake

Lee’s Grocery did a great job Saturday. There was a long line of customers waiting on Dong Phuong king cakes and everything ran so smoothly. And they’re not jacking the price up like so many other people are locally. Thanks to everyone involved.

Privacy

If Elon Musk wants to do an audit, he should be able to do it without accessing our social security numbers. He should be looking at productivity and deficits in each department. He’s acting like a corporate raider.
