Junk Drawer (9)

Roughly, 70 million Americans are fathers. One of them--the current President of the United States--pardoned his son for crimes committed the past 10 years. I'm guessing about 69,999,000 fathers would do the same. Of course blood is thicker. End of story. Full stop.

Except--except for the fathers of sons in prison for tax and/or firearms felonies. I do not know how many sons are currently serving a sentence, but I do know one thing. Not one of their fathers is the President of the United States.


I saw as part of local voting results our sheriff was reelected. He ran as a Republican candidate. Hmmm, a Republican sheriff as opposed to a Democratic sheriff? Wonder how many of the constitutional sheriff gang forgo party affiliation.


The college football playoff setup makes me laugh. All the chatter about this team or that team. What's funny? The tournament is not going to have the 12 best teams in the country. Lots of the better teams are going to be left out. And these mega conferences? This, too, is what you have wrought. Also makes me laugh. Will I watch? Hell yes. 


Sources set our illegal immigrant population at around 11 million. Eleven million. Think the populations of either Georgia or Ohio. We're going to need a lot more detention camp tents and beds. In 2018 we spent a bit more than $200 a day per detained immigrant. Holy government contracts, Batman! Cha-ching!


As for the TikTok influencer with 300,000 followers who was arrested for deliberately mis-scanning $500 worth of items at Target.... Shut. Up.
