FROM THE PUBLISHER’S

FROM THE PUBLISHER’S DESK “Jackie are you here? Where’s Jackie?” When Biden was elected, I remember my conversation with our editor, Rex Evans. “It’s only four years, how much damage can he possibly do?” Well, we’re half-way through his presidency and boy was I wrong. Just this past week Biden was looking for Representative Jackie Walorski at one of his boring conferences at the White House. “Jackie are you here? Where’s Jackie? She must not be here.” Uh, she’s in Heaven you idiot. See Jackie died in a horrible car accident back in August. “I thought she was going to be here to help make this a reality.” The reality is Mr. President, you’re way past your expiration date. You need to retire to your basement for good. And his staff just keeps making excuses for his mental instability. Like his Press Secretary making up some BS line about his “Top of Mind” for calling out dead people at a press briefing. What the hell does “Top of Mind” even mean? I wonder if his “Top of Mind” had anything to do with his other screw ups: • Like how he screwed up our departure from Afghanistan and got 13 servicemen and women killed. • Or the fact our border is wide open, and millions of illegals are roaming free in our country. • And because of that open border, Fentanyl is flowing freely into our country killing hundreds of Americans every day. • His so-called new energy deals have closed the XL Pipeline; prompted US energy companies to stop drilling for oil; resulting in the US begging for oil in all the wrong places; which caused gas prices to soar; and if all of that isn’t bad enough, he’s depleted HALF of our strategic oil reserves. • All of his “New Energy” deals have sent Inflation through the roof which stands at 8.5% - a 20 year high. • Families can’t find baby formula to feed their babies. • The so-called pandemic literally destroyed hundreds of thousands of businesses in this country, and hardworking citizens were fired because they wouldn’t get vaccinated and now the President says the pandemic is over, but these individuals still can’t go back to work. • Finally, he has all but killed ICE cars in hopes of creating an all-electric transportation system without the infrastructure to support it. So Evans, I was wrong, Biden can screw up America and it didn’t take four years. Forget the fact, he can’t ride a bike without training wheels, he shakes hands with people who aren’t there, can’t complete a sentence, must have a teleprompter to order lunch and has spent 80% of his time in Delaware. And despite the fact the border is in crisis, he hasn’t once taken the time to fly down there and meet with the troops on the ground and see what they are facing each and every day. Millions have flooded the border towns and the liberals go Sgt. Michael Barron RET crazy when 50 show up at Martha’s Vineyard. But let’s talk about the REAL CRI- SIS here in Texas. BETO O’ROURKE. If this clown gets elected as Governor, you may as well be living in California. Because his liberal ass is going to try and annex Texas into California. Constitutional Carry - he would abolish it along with any conceal carry laws. He hates guns. And he would repeal Texas’ Abortion Ban. The only saving grace if he is elected, we’ll still have a Republican House and Senate stop him dead in his tracks. I said all that to say this. Elections have consequences. Your vote does make a difference. If you don’t want stupid politicians running your country, state or local government, then make sure they don’t get elected. Which brings me to the most important race in Harris County – Harris County Judge. We all know Lina isn’t qualified to hold the office of County Judge. She needs to go! Go to the polls and VOTE FOR Alexandra del Moral Mealer. She has our endorsement as well as that of virtually every law enforcement group in Harris County. Let all that be “Top of Your Mind!” 6 The BLUES The BLUES 7
