GET YOURSELF SOME CANDY TAX TONIGHT! Because it's Halloween and we all send our kids out to demand free candy from our neighbors while we sit at home to raid their goodies for the yearly candy tax to be paid for a year's worth of room and board. At least that's how we roll at our house. What do you take as your tax?
I'M A YES ON PROP 130 Because it provides a large chunk of money to shore up our law enforcement agencies, most of which are running short staffed and not getting many applicants to fill those roles. Joe O'Dea is joining me today to talk about why this so important and he'll join me at 12:30 to discuss it.
FORGET ABOUT THE NEVER SURRENDER RALLY IN FOUNTAIN THIS WEEKEND And Natalie Tennant will join me at 1 for a few minutes to talk about why they cancelled the rally this weekend in Fountain.
TRUMP RESPONDS TO BIDEN GARBAGE COMMENT AND IT'S A DOOZY And I laughed out loud when I saw this last night.
Here he is talking about the garbage truck in the funniest way possible, including a curse word I could live without.
He totally understands how to be a person that people can relate to. As the Democrats spent two days with the vapors over a comedian's stupid joke he took the slam and made it a positive. t's the Uptight Scolds Vs. the He Can Take A Joke candidate. He completed the switch of the Republican party officially into the Party of The Workin' Man last night and it's hilarious.
IT'S CLEAR TO ME JOE BIDEN DOESN'T WANT KAMALA TO WIN And I'm genuinely shocked that more people are not talking about the fact he is clearly doing everything in his power to tank her. By having a Zoom call DURING her big speech, and saying Trump supporters were trash, he DOES NOT WANT HER TO WIN. We've all known Biden was petty and small for a long time, now it's time for the Democrats to find out just how small. Last night the White House put out this tweet:
I did a little digging on polling on this issue and it's pretty evenly split. Dems love it, Independents and Republicans not so much so why do this NOW? Why insert something that isn't going to win independents into the race now? He wants her and the Democrats who stabbed him in the back to lose, mark my words.
I WENT TO THE OTHER SIDE ACADEMY LAST NIGHT If you remember Bill the caller I helped connect with The Other Side Academy a few years ago when he was in the depths of his alcohol addiction you may remember when he and Lola from The Other Side Academy visited. I had a chance to visit them last night and it was so incredibly special. I spoke to the residents of the program, all of whom are spending two and half years not just overcoming addiction but rebuilding themselves after addiction all at no charge and I can't say enough good things about this place. The program is TOUGH, but the residents I met were so positive and kind and respectful and I'm rooting for each and every one of them to continue moving their lives forward. If you or someone you love need help, they have one bed open right now. Here is the website.
THE FUNNIEST STORY OF THE YEAR And for two days in a row I am complimenting Kyle Clark for the content on Next. This is magic.
DENVER DROPS THE CHARGES AGAINST PRO-HAMAS SCUMBAGS And this story is full of so much crap you're going to need toilet paper when you're done reading it. Of course Denver doesn't follow through and make the idiots who caused hundreds of thousands in damage to the Tivoli Quad at the Auraria Campus pay a price for their lawlessness. As long as you protest something that The Left agrees with you will always get off scot free in Denver. Now the protesters will probably sue for emotional distress and get a million dollars for their trouble. The takeaway here is Jews should not expect justice from Denver's DAs office. Period.
DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE THIS HOLIDAY And I mean all the way through the weekend. The DMV is offering $7 Uber vouchers today via their Instagram page to help prevent DUI and you can find out more here.
JENA GRISWOLD MUST STEP DOWN And I have no doubt she will not but this column lays out all the reasons why in one easy place.
DID THIS POLL WORKER REALLY CROSS THE LINE? And I mean that in the rhetorical sense because she actually really did cross the blue line of tape on the floor at a Gilpin County polling site where signatures were being validated. The poll watcher was then removed from the site by the Clerk of Gilpin county, who said the job of the poll watcher was NOT to actually validate signatures, but according to the Sec of State's website, the watcher should be:
permitted access that would allow them to attest to the accuracy of election-related activities,” the Secretary of State’s Office states on its website. “This includes personal visual access at a reasonable proximity to read documents, writings or electronic screens and reasonable proximity to hear election-related discussions between election judges and electors.”
Seems like the Clerk overreacted here but I'm not totally sure. This is one of those things where I'd rather the Clerks err on the side of MORE security, not less but that's not how they do things in Gilpin County I guess.
IT'S TIME TO EMBRACE GAY CONSERVATIVES, REPUBLICANS And I know this will be offensive to Dave Williams whose goal is to drive as many people he deems unacceptable out of the party but it's time. This story from The Free Press about gay conservatives shows how unnecessarily hard it is to be a gay Republican and it's time to stop with the "you're going to Hell" and recognize that we are ALL sinners and if you believe being gay is a sin, so be it but enough with the hateful rhetoric towards people who are our political allies. It's time for a little Matthew 7:1:
Do not judge, or you too will be judged.
If we all just took this approach and loved each other instead of judging each other we could build an even stronger coalition based on what we believe together.
DO YOU LIE ABOUT WHO YOU ARE VOTING FOR? If you do you're in good company, as more Americans are taking the Nunya Bidness stance when it comes to sharing who they are going to vote for. I think this makes polling even more suspect but I'm not sure what the percentages were before.
HOW MUCH CANDY DO YOU GIVE TRICK OR TREATERS? And we're not talking full size candy bars, we're talking fun size. The most common answer is 2 pieces but the "fun size" has gotten so small I would go a big higher unless I lived in a high traffic neighborhood.
AURORA TARGETS SHOPLIFTERS And I hope this sort of thing doesn't just move the shoplifters to new locations (which it totally will) but good for Target and Aurora PD for making an effort to show that shoplifting is NOT okay and will NOT be tolerated. That is the first step to solving the problem.
DODGERS WIN, LET THE LOOTING COMMENCE Demonstrating once again why Dodgers fans suck, they tried to set a bus on fire and then looted stores, stealing whatever they could get their hands on because their team won the World Series. Well done, Dodger fans.
THE DEEP SEEDED RACISM OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY I saw this column by David Strom at HotAir.com that included the tweet below and I must say, I am not surprised but find the blatant nature of the calculated racism of the Democratic party to be quite bold in it's in-your-face nature. Read this:
If you didn't read the whole thing, this is the paragraph to focus on:
The Democrats' long-term strategy is to stoke racial resentment to build their coalition and energize non-white voters. The rhetoric is designed to convince minorities that America is irredeemably, structurally racist, and only Democrats will look out for them. Social justice ideology, DEI, and wokeness are used in businesses, institutions, and schools to enforce Democratic rule and used internally to enforce party discipline. Note how Democrats united an entire coalition around Kamala Harris. No one wanted to look racist for suggesting there might be a better option.
It's a feature, not a bug. Just like the old Dixiecrats used fake tales of black men attacking white women to stir up racist white votes, the Dems are using fake tales of racism to gin up the black vote. Both are shameful because they work. You really should read the whole thing along with David's column.
AROD'S HALLOWEEN COSTUME This photo doesn't do it justice because you don't get to hear the accent he worked so hard on but here you go!
YOU MAY FINALLY BE ABLE TO GET THAT MCFLURRY NOW The long saga of the Broken McDonald's Ice Cream Machines may now be over with a new rule allowing vendors to fix the machines without waiting for an authorized repair person from the company that makes them. It's a convoluted story about trademarks and whatnot you can read here but our long national nightmare is almost over.
THE YANKEES SHOW HOW TO HANDLE THAT AHOLE FAN SITUATION By tweeting out this about last night's game:
Sorry the kid didn't get to see them win.
DON'T FORGET TO CHANGE YOUR CEILING FAN DIRECTION FOR WINTER And this story explains why you need to switch it up.
EXPIRATION DATES ARE A SHAM But this is a good video to explain why you don't have to throw out stuff unless it's truly "expired". Watch below or click here.
STAR WARS WITH FOUR GUITARS These guys are amazing.
THIS SEEMS UNNECESSARY BUT OKAY Watch below or click here.
THE TIGER KING FOUND LOVE IN PRISON And now he's engaged to a fellow inmate. This is somehow the perfect end to this story. Joe is serving a 21 year sentence, no word on when his betrothed is getting out. Mazel Tov to the jailbird couple.
REAL LIFE ANTISEMITISM IN AMERICANThis is so upsetting.
MY FAVORITE HALLOWEEN STORY TO DATE I just love this.
