I, a lifelong night owl, now get up every morning at 6am to read your blog. At 74. Wow. My constant prayer is for you to live longer than me.

Excellent summary, Don. That is just sick about the Social Security Disability awards for depression. That should get alot more news coverage.

And thank you, also, for always making me laugh out loud--my favorite line today was: "What theory? The theory of Clapping Hard To Save Tinker Bell?"

I haven't watched any of that hateful old man's speeches since he was inaugurated. My blood pressure is high enough already.

In a previous life I investigated life and health insurance claims for fraud.

As a rookie I was sent on "annuitant checks" that's looking up someone who's been on worker comp for so long there are questions of whether a relative is cashing the checks or continued disability. Visiting dozens of people who have been collecting disability checks for decades was educational in the way intended. Seeing one after another who went out with, say, a back injury who now has diabetes, heart disease, depression and over-medication issues puts a fellow in the right frame of mind to go catch people faking it.

Disability payment are a trap. I am certain the UBI being touted will be the same or worse. Imagine millions of people with nothing better to do than demand more $$$ and better drugs. Social metastatic growth.

I am still laughing at the clip above, with Bidumb stumbling, due to the bombardment of satellite balloons. You made my day. AGAIN!! HAHAHAHAHAH.

Yes, Don you are correct. It's deep state interference, now a bigger threat than Russia! And aren't China and the deep state and the military co-operating since Thoroughly Modern Gen. Milly said he would give China a heads up about a U.S. attack. Some of this would make Orwell blush. It's usually the enemies from within that cause the greatest harms because they act through stealth. You are also correct to point out that Brandon is 10-0 in winning elections. That's amazing for a stupid but evil grifter. He has cunning down to an art. I didn't watch Brandon last night and chose a nighttime French soap opera instead. It gave me more comfort. I watched a few clips this morning and the ones with Brandon yelling and not making much sense made me think of Beavis of Beavis an Butthead fame. He certainly is an elderly Beavis. On the face of it, it's all pretty discouraging but like I always try to say: Tomorrow is another day to fight.

Unintended consequences perhaps. I have been following Highlights for years. I thought I would miss them, and I do, but the new longer daily posts are edgier, informative, and even more satisfying.

Thank you.

Sorry, can’t vote on the state of the union. I did’t watch it. Did not watch it during Marxist Obama’s Marxist transformation nor during Marxist Biden’s reign of terror!

The similarities between 2023 United States of America and Mad Max beyond Thunderdome Bartertown are becoming more apparent. Compare Biden and Kamala Harris to Bartertown’s master/blaster and Auntie Entity. And yet the justice system in Bartertown was much faster...”Bust a deal... face the wheel.
