Here’s an update on the tariffs. My wife today needed 2 paint brushes from Target. One cost $9.99 and a second brush was a 70% markup at $16.99. She was told that the new price is from restocking the same product that just arrived after she got the last of the old stock. Yep, he’s made America great

My view for today’s SEC matchup between a pair of ranked 3-0 teams, as the Auburn Tigers visit the Oklahoma Sooners. Kickoff at 2:45 CT.

It’s funny. He NEVER remembers 💩 he says, but everyone is quick to pull up the clip of him saying it. That damn worm did a number on him. It’s like a pathological liar, they can’t remember all the lies they tell.
KASIE HUNT: Over the summer you said, “There’s no vaccine that’s safe and effective”. Do you still believe that?

RFK JR: “I never said that.”

Any member of the House who don’t sign to release the files better be voted out by their constituents in the next election cycle. These people do not represent their districts, they bow to a man who frightens them for some reason.
GOP Rep. Thomas Massie is publicly pleading with his Republican colleagues to break rank with House GOP leaders and join his crusade to force a vote on the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Massie said he needed just two more members on his side of the aisle to sign onto the discharge petition.

The Kentucky Republican is defending his approach as his leadership tries to undermine the effort.

The fact that the president and his band of bobblehead dolls in both the house and senate are the reason this crackpot RFK Jr. is in the position to destroy our health system. If not stopped soon, it will take years for the country to recover.
RFK Jr. prepares to name new vaccine panel members.

The list of names includes at least three people who have questioned the safety of messenger RNA shots against Covid.

My best “Pop” story was him flying alone to Atlanta to attend Craig Sager’s funeral, then busting it back to San Antonio as soon as the service was over so he could coach the Spurs that night. He just sat in a row by himself toward the back of the church. An absolute class act.
With Gregg Popovich's retirement, the game has lost what many of his peers consider one of — if not the — greatest coach in NBA history.

He found success with a fiery and direct approach, but not without unwavering compassion and care.

"Pop is a generational leader."

I’ve seen today’s lineup and noticed that Vinny’s back, so here’s Vinny’s back from spring training.

Opening Day has always meant the world to me and today is no different. Even retired from the game, I will still enjoy every pitch today as 2025 officially gets underway.

UNCLE!!! I am fed up reading how Social Security is an entitlement. I’m retired. I’ve paid into it for over 50 years. It’s my freakin’ money. I don’t need a billionaire to tell me or anyone else we’re not entitled to our money. I’ve been real quiet about what is going on but this is out of control.

So, it’s Chiefs Sunday in the family room and Brody is already waiting to be entertained by dad (me). He’s just staring me down for my daily reactions knowing if I yell he’s not in trouble.
