    “During Covid, the federal government doled out money to provide free meals to children. It was Covid, so the government decided to abandon any pretense of preventing fraud — and plenty of people noticed immediately.

    In Minnesota, members of the Somali community built one of the largest fraud operations in US history. They fabricated ludicrously fake tallies of prepared meals, then pocketed $250 million in taxpayer cash — millions of which went overseas to Somalia. 80% of the money was never recovered.

    Now, the perpetrators are on trial, and one juror had $120,000 in cash dropped at her door, with more promises if she voted to acquit. The defense, meanwhile, is hiring college professors to lecture that scamming the government and sending suitcases full of cash abroad is a part of Somali culture, and trying to stop them is of course “racist.”

    In the 20th century Minnesotans were famous for their upright morals and civic-mindedness.

    Their stereotype in the 21st century is becoming something else entirely.”

    “You need to go in there knowing Fauci will lie and be prepared to shoot him down, use evidence and especially of his own words, to throw back in his face.

    You need to treat him like a hostile witness.

    Republicans are still worried if the media that hates their guts thinks they are “nice guys.”

    They never learn. And we have to assume that their ineffectiveness is deliberate until proven otherwise.”

  3. Your biased and partisan product sucks, and people aren’t gonna pay for the trash you peddle anymore. I think it’s rich how the editor pretends he’s not responsible too. Ya’ll built this. Own it.

  4. The NFL is rife with supplication to the LGBT lobby, but nine teams apparently have opted out of celebrating “Pride Month” despite the league’s bending of the knee to the radical gay agenda.

    According to a look at franchises’ official websites and social media accounts and a review of their plans for June, less than a third of the teams made no mention of the LGBT “pride” celebration, OutKick’s Armando Salguero reported Monday.

    As of early Tuesday afternoon, the teams that seemed to have opted out of the LGBT agendawere the Atlanta Falcons, Cincinnati Bengals, Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, Kansas City Chiefs, New Orleans Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers and Tennessee Titans.

    Rather stunned that Denver hasn’t gotten themselves off of this list yet!

  5. Much of the “pride” hoopla is mostly now a fad that I expect will die out in the next year or 2 or 3. It’s getting so redundant and copy-cat that it’s not going to be news for much longer.

  6. Feels like it’s hitting its peak (and after that comes boredom; it’s no longer “exciting” and it’s certainly not daring; it’s *yawn* status quo).
