In the News II

Alan Dershowitz who I like immensely because he seems to tell the truth a lot and he's extremely intelligent has known Donald Trump for years. He visited him last week at Mar-A-Lago and he says Trump is absolutely at the top of his game even more so than in the past. He's fast, he's informed, he's witty, he knows exactly what needs to be done and exactly how he's going to do it. If Dershowitz did not believe this he wouldn't say it the guy is 85 years old and is still cranking out three or four New York Times bestselling books a year. He always has a new book coming out and it's always a best seller. The Democrats used to like him until he started to turn on the woke party and especially when Joe Biden turned on Israel. Now he has no use for the Democrats at all. He's not a Republican and never will be but he'll never be a Democrat again.

Trump is going to pull out of the World Health Organization on day one. We send them $7 billion dollars a year for absolutely nothing. We support 6000 bureaucrats whose loyalty is mostly to China. It's a totally corrupt organization and we're going to stop supporting it and the Liberals are going to go insane as they usually do.

I may miss a detail or two. Butttt…. There is an NYPD officer whose salary exceeded $400k due to ridiculous overtime. She’s been arrested for fraud. She is now claiming she’s been (COERCED!) into banging the superior who approves such overtime. He just resigned. She says she’d have sex with him in his office. Another upper level (or two?) top level cops also resigned. Luckily there is the indicted mayor to root out these intransigencies.
Vote in some Republicans to clean that department up. And to clean the mayor’s office up. (Probably makes no difference, but geez, these Democrat run urban centers are just a disaster. Google the mess in Chicago.

I have read so many stories about police and fire departments and how they can abuse the pay structure. One story was a firefighter that worked less than 16 hours a week but was making over $200k a year because he found a loophole in the system. He was not doing anything illegal, he was just APing the system.

That would be odd, because firefighters work as teams and 24/7 and someone not working many hours would stick out quite a bit because other people would have to cover. The fire chief surely knew what people were being paid and how much they worked.

You legit think it's only cop shops in Dem run areas that are a mess?

Unfortunately I do not remember any of the details. I believe it was in a very big city maybe New York or Phillly but I am not sure.

She's 82 years old for crying out loud. What's with these people on both sides they get in office and then you can't get rid of them. What's so great about this job that makes people want to stay in it till they drop dead in their tracks. This is not what the founding fathers had in mind. In those days you served one term for almost no money then you went home back to the farm and somebody else took your place. Now you're elected and you stay there until drop dead on the job. It's got to change.

No. But I do believe that cities/states that are Dem run will accept lawlessness/corruption/scandal way more than similar Republican situations. I live in NY. We have Paterson, Spitzer, Weiner, Adams, many of their underlines, etc…. They (the Dems) will only prosecute and convict you if.. you are a Republican running for President.

Anyway, Democrat run NYS/NYC is and has been a cesspool since Bloomberg left office.
