“Too bad that all the people who know how to run the country are busy driving taxicabs and cutting hair.” George Burns

Today, you can be a serial killer and the only thing you’ll get is a good book deal.
It’s Social Justice. That means no justice for you. And that criminals never have to say they’re sorry.
Crooks have seen Joe and Son “Smash and Grab” without punishment, and they figure that means it’s okay.
Social Justice, and equity, and diversity have made criminals the victims. Just like Joe.
Lunchbox Joe thinks of no one else but Joe. And always has.
When he was a senator, he lied and said he couldn’t afford child care.
When he shut down oil production last year, he lied and said he didn’t cause high prices at the pump.
And when his dementia and lack of skill outweighed his ability to blame someone else, Joe got a war to fix it.
Before the Mid-term elections.
The only thing Joe hasn’t said is, “The Devil made me do it.”
And all of a sudden, all we’re talking about is Putin.
Compassionate people that Americans are, they reacted compassionately to the war in Ukraine.
They agonized as they saw the Ukrainian people fighting in the streets for their country. For freedom.
And they saw Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky as a brave leader. But is he the principled guy he appears to be? We hope he is.
Although he seems too perfect. Like an actor.
Nonetheless, as Benjamin Franklin advised, “It is the first responsibility of every citizen to question authority.” Especially when that “authority” is spending our money.
So, let’s question.
Number One: Ukraine is the country that has paid Hunter Biden and the Biden family millions of dollars. And possibly still is. And It is a country that has been called one of the most corrupt.
Which means its leaders will do just about anything. Including a war on demand?
Two: The U.S. Congress is sending $13.6 billion dollars to Ukraine, in a compassionate gesture. But here’s the thing. How do we know that the money will not “circle back” to Joe?
We don’t.
Three: President Zelensky has asked, and repeatedly, for the U.S. to provide a No-Fly Zone. Sounds simple. But it turns out a No-Fly Zone isn’t simple.
“It means flying Airborne Warning and Control Systems 24 hours a day,” Sen. Marco Rubio explained in an ABC “This Week” interview.
“You can’t put those planes up there unless they’re willing to knock out the anti-aircraft systems that the Russians have deployed, and not just in Ukraine, but Russia and also in Belarus.”
“It’s the willingness to shoot down the aircrafts of the Russian Federation, which is basically the beginning of World War III.”
Who knew?
And call me selfish, but what’s in it for us?
Putin gets U.S.’s oil business and maybe a country. Joe gets to blame Putin for high oil prices and inflation. And he gets to maintain good relationships with Russia, China and the Ukraine. Win, win.
And the middle class still has high gas prices. And a war. And gets to pick up the tab for both.
All of this just goes to prove that distraction really does distract. And propaganda can be most persuasive.
Because now, all we’re talking about is the war in Ukraine, how ruthless former KGB Vladimir Putin is. And President Zelensky, and his current role as Winston Churchill.
Not what a mess Joe is.
All, coincidentally coming up before the 2022 Mid-terms.
Hold the line, America.
Support the Truckers!
Stay strong, Patriots.
