ISRAEL ROLLS INTO LEBANON TO TAKE OUT HEZBOLLAH We talked about Israel making a very clear choice to execute their war the way they see fit and today they are moving into Lebanon according to Israel, while Hezbollah is all like Nuh-uh.

WHY YOU NEED TO VOTE NO ON THE MOUNTAIN LION HUNTING BAN I know, I know, they are very pretty. And can be very dangerous when meeting up with humans and civilization.

09-23-24 Interview - Kristi Burton Brown - Please Pay Attention to the Board of Education Race

PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THE BOARD OF EDUCATION RACE Because they are the people who can make life miserable for charter schools and force outrageous lessons on our little kids about sex work and drag queens. This race matters so much. Here is an article that asks all the candidates about parental rights and any of the candidates who downplay the efforts of school districts to insert themselves between parents and students should be immediately disqualified in my opinion. I've got Kristi Burton B...

09-17-24 Interview - Peter Boddie - One Simple Word is a Job Killer

ONE SIMPLE WORD IS A JOB KILLER A simple bill about plumbing got high jacked by special interests to change on word and it killed businesses. Peter Boddie is sounding the alarm while he runs for Colorado House District 28 to unseat the person who put lots of people and small businesses out of work in what he calls the The Big Backflow Blunder, which you can read about here. He joins me at 12:30 to discuss.
