    Two governors and two states moving in opposite directions

    The midterm elections of 2022 proved I was right to get the hell out of Illinois. Georgia re-elected Brian Kemp and Illinois re-elected JB Pritzker.

    The CDC Director tests positive for COVID… AGAIN. It’s time to stick a fork in COVID-19

    It’s high time we stick a fork in COVID-19 and the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The vaccines don’t work, Paxlovid doesn’t work, and the chances of dying from the virus, if you are healthy and under the age of 70, is less than a tenth of 1%. The only risk now is continuing to follow these numbskulls.…
