Kamela Harris babbles aimlessly in this interview with Shannon Sharp. Listen to the entire interview to gain insights into how empty headed she is. Her answers do not address policy questions in a substantive way. Listen to her whole answer so that you will not take her out of context.

In the latest episode of Club Shay Shay, Shannon Sharpe welcomes none other than Vice President Kamala Harris for an inspiring conversation filled with historic moments, personal reflections, and big dreams for the future. Vice President Harris opens up about her journey of groundbreaking "firsts,"....

I feel the same way about those in Congress who are resigning in droves.

Plenty of Congresses have been unpopular, but the 118th Congress has been so unpopular for lawmakers themselves that an unprecedented number are quitting midterm.

I was interviewed yesterday regarding the resignation of Citrus Heights City Council Member Bret Daniels. I think resigning from the City Council for the second time is wrong. I believe his reasoning is flawed and insufficient. The only message you deliver by quitting before the end of your term is that you have no respect for your community or the people you are elected to serve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&si=14x9-vx3dXr_mJ30&v=_gi9Ur_x-3g&feature=youtu.be
https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/sacramento/news/citrus-heights-mayor-who-called-california-politics-evil-resigns-amid-kentucky-move/ There are legitimate reasons to quit your office. Personal or family health issues come to mind or an opportunity to serve in a "higher office". The political reasons given by Mr. Daniels are, in my mind, insufficient and dishonest. I have disagreed with Mr. Daniels on many issues over the years. I think disagreement is good and healthy. My disagreement has now turned to disrespect because he has shown disdain for the people he was elected to serve. I feel the same way about those in Congress who are resigning in droves. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/03/16/congress-lawmakers-resignations/

It has been a while since I last posted the US Debt Clock https://www.usdebtclock.org/ We have slid past 35 Trillion Dollars. In case you are wondering, that is 35 Thousand Billion Dollars! Take another step back, because One Billion Dollars is One Thousand Million Dollars. 1 Trillion Dollars is one Million Million Dollars. Replace the 1 with a 35 and you get 35 Million Million Dollars. These numbers are impossible to comprehend, and they are ignored by our elected officials on both sides of the aisle. When the bill comes due, who will pay? ? ? Take a moment to think about it. Have you had enough time? The answer is me and you. The younger you are, the more you will pay back. With no answer coming from Washington, I would propose a 1% across every agency cut every year for the next 3 years. After that, we can reevaluate and perhaps try something different. Mine is a simplistic solution to a complex problem. I understand that, but we have to start somewhere.

There is a 9 hour difference between California and France. The invasion started just after midnight on June 6, 1944. At the time of this posting, they were an hour and a half in. Paratroopers and soldiers in gliders had already set foot in France. Landing craft were moving toward Normandy with thousands of sea-sick men who would begin landings just a few hours from now. I am humbled by the courage of these young men who led the way in liberating France. At the same time, remember that just a few weeks from now, Operation Bagration began on the Eastern Front. The Russians were critical to the victory in France.

Diplomacy be damned! It is wrong to offer "condolences" for a murderer. https://freebeacon.com/national-security/biden-admin-sends-iran-condolences-after-mass-murderer-president-killed-in-helicopter-crash/ The government of Iran is a maniacal dictatorship. There is nothing fair or free in that Theocracy. They support terror around the world. Raisi murdered thousands of his own people because they oppose the regime. There was a moment of silence at the UN for this killer! Our ambassador stood and bowed her head for this killer. Did the UN give a moment of silence for those Raisi killed? Why do we continue to support the UN? If they honor murderers, perhaps it is time to get out of the UN.

The Biden administration on Monday sent “official condolences” to the Iranian regime following a weekend helicopter crash that claimed the lives of its hardline president and foreign minister.

After watching the fiasco in the House of Representatives last week, https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/house/3007590/mtg-aoc-crockett-heated-oversight-hearing/

I believe that this Heinlein quote should be put on the door of every member of Congress.

"Moving parts in rubbing contact require lubrication to avoid excessive wear. Honorifics and formal politeness provide lubrication where people rub together. Often the very young, the untraveled, the naive, the unsophisticated deplore these formalities as “empty,” “meaningless,” or “dishonest,” and scorn to use them. No matter how “pure” their motives, they thereby throw sand into machinery that does not work too well at best.""

Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Jasmine Crockett were just some of the congresswomen engaging in tense back and forth on Thursday night.

Another good Heinlein quote.

Any government will work if authority and responsibility are equal and coordinate. This does not insure “good” government; it simply insures that it will work. But such governments are rare--most people want to run things but want no part of the blame. This used to be called the “backseat-driver syndrome.”
