All falling apart
Texas A&M humiliated the Tigers. LSU is pathetic. Coach Brian Kelly cannot assess talent because the O-line he thought he grabbed from the portal has been hopelessly outmatched by every defense they’ve faced this season. They cannot handle a simple four-man rush. QB Nussmeier has been sacked and injured so much this season that it’s impossible for him to succeed. Kelly has been unable to prepare this team in the pre-season, nor improve them during the season. He and his staff are woefully inept at making corrections during a game and equally inept at offensive scheming and play calling. Accountability needs to catch up with him soon.
A ballroom?
Italy has buildings from the 1500s as part of its history and the Italians preserve them. President Trump just destroyed the East Wing. Why? For a ballroom? He’s nuts.
Illegal immigration
Can we all agree that the current round up of Illegal immigrants resulting in attacks and obstruction on law enforcement by radical liberals is a result of four years of open borders by the Biden administration?
Above and beyond
I just had to share this hilarious experience from the other day. Picture this: I was watching TV when an actor said, “call 911.” My Alexa speaker heard the TV and promptly announced, “911 called, and police are en route.” I quickly called Biloxi Police Dispatch to let them know it was a false alarm, but it was too late. In less than a minute, two Biloxi Police cars were at my house. There I was, outside explaining the unusual event caused by my overly helpful Alexa speaker to the officers. As we were chatting, my hyperactive Doodle puppy saw us through the window and was bursting with excitement to meet our new friends. One of the officers asked if he could pet my pup, and of course, I obliged. The moment I let my pup out, he showered the officers with puppy licks before bolting off down the street. What happened next was truly a sight to behold. The officers, three of my neighbors, and I all took off after my runaway pup, who was having the time of his life. He must have thought it was the best game ever, seeing six people chasing him, because he just ran faster and faster. Eventually, the officers managed to apprehend the little escapee and return him safely. Their quick response, good humor, and willingness to help with my mischievous pup were truly commendable.
The shutdown
As Democrats continue to hold federal workers hostage, they actually admit that the stress on individuals is real. But you have to suck it up for the good of the party. Imagine if President Trump said it?
Obamacare
Did the majority vote to end subsidies on Obamacare, the Democratic holdout position? I bet if a vote were held today on that one topic, subsidies would win out. Obamacare care is too popular and too critical for the health of our nation.
End it, already
It’s time for the Democrats to give the Republicans what they want and end the shutdown. Either things will fall apart and the Democrats will have been right, or things will work great, and the Republicans will have been proven right.
