BLACK ELECTED OFFICIALS: STOP BEING ‘STUCK ON STUPID’!

      Based upon what I have been reading and seeing concerning some of the latest scandals of our current crop of Black elected officials (many of them of the Democrat and liberal stripe) there SHOULD have been someone in their political upbringing who were willing to ‘school’ them on a few truths and realities.  Regardless of whether a Black elected official is a Democrat or Republican, it should be painfully obvious that—being a Black man

      Caught an interesting news item from Chicago recently.  It seems that some in that city’s legislative body—composed mainly of Democrats—want to put the issue of whether Chicago remains a ‘sanctuary city’ up for referendum before the citizens of Chicago in the spring of 2024.  Unfortunately, most of the Aldermen did NOT support such as move, as illegal aliens have flocked to Chicago—and pushed Black folk out of the way for jobs, education, social services,

THE OBAMA LEGACY UNDER THE BIDEN CLOUD

      You have already heard about the collapse of the Hunter Biden plea deal, and the soon-to-begin Impeachment Inquiry against President Joe Biden because of Bribery (and other) hanky-panky that took place, allegedly, during his tenure as Vice President.  However, the elephant in the room (pardon the pun, since I am a Republican) is what this may do to the legacy of former President Barack Obama.

The D Word

From The RampartsJunious Ricardo StantonThe D Word“At the root of the banks’ problems are the large losses they have undoubtedly taken on their securities and loan portfolios. But they don’t want to recognize the full extent of their losses, because that would likely expose them as insolvent. So they talk down the problem, and ask for handouts that aren’t enough to make them healthy (again, they can’t reveal the size of the handouts that would be necessary for that), but are enough to keep them
