Fox News Friday: Biden, Homeless, Tree, and one helluva prostate massage
When the government contracts out big projects, one of the requirements is that developers pay development fees. Federal statute mandates that developers pay that fee prior to construction on their lease, a potentially hefty fee designed to guarantee federal property is returned to its original state after a lessee departs its lease. The Bureau of […]
Henry Kissinger dies at 100
Henry Alfred Kissinger who was United States Secretary of State and National Security Advisor under Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford has died. A Jewish refugee who fled Nazi Germany with his family in 1938, he became National Security Advisor in 1969 and U.S. Secretary of State in 1973. For his actions negotiating a ceasefire […]
Tuesday twinks
Let’s open up with the 100 State Department employees who sent a letter to Biden accusing him of “spreading disinformation” about Gaza. (Wasn’t ‘dizinformacia’ a KGB term?)

A new task force for San Francisco’s opioid crisis will empower law enforcement to investigate fatal […]

It all started when the former speaker, Kevin McCarthy from California, was ousted. Since then we have watched two […]
Thursday shorts – oil, Bush, and insults
