Odds & Ends
The great divide in America is not between lefties and righties. The divide is between the governed and the government.
Our politicians are just grubby money men out of touch with the country. And that brings me to the January 6 obsession in Washington.
Food inflation is in the double-digits. It costs $100 now to fill up a pickup truck. Baby formula and tampons are in short supply. Soon we may be unable to fuel the trucks that deliver our goods and that includes food. The stock market is tanking. Poverty has come for many due to the insane lockdowns of the recent COVID era and it is just around the corner for many others. Drug overdose deaths now top 100,000 a year. Millions of terrorists, gangbangers and other illegal aliens have flooded in under Biden and been sent across the country.
So what do the Democratic elites in Congress do? Congress hires a former ABC executive to put together a TV extravaganza on J6. Are you kidding me? Just how out of touch are these people?
Salena Zito notes:
“This ugly reality will affect the elections this fall, probably far more than the political class understands. Why? Because they never take the time to walk down a street like Cedar Avenue and ask how it is going. More importantly, they take for granted that they will always have the voters they have always had, never realizing most people have a breaking point.”
Let’s hope this is true.
