Man, oh man, President Joe Biden is a great negotiator. He traded the merchant of death, Victor Bout, for an anti-American basketball player who just happens to be Black and gay — which seems to be the main concern of the administration. Never mind about ex-Marine businessman Paul Whelan, who has spent four years in Russian prisons while maintaining his innocence.

Mr. Biden learned from the other great negotiator, Barack Obama. You know, the great trade of five high-value Afghanistan terrorists for one American traitor. Then the Obama administration left the U.S. Embassy in Benghazi unsupported. It didn’t turn out too well for the Americans protecting it.

President Biden has his own Benghazi, called Afghanistan. Again it didn’t turn out a well for Americans. But don’t worry, President Biden is working on it.

I don’t think I’ll take Mr. Biden along when I buy a car.

In my company, like so many others, all my employees get paid first and before I get paid. It would appear this is not true for the federal government.

I keep listening to the Democrats whining about the Republicans not being willing to negotiate to fund our country.

Here they go again. Gov. Joe Lombardo has announced a legislative special session and the unions immediately started beating the drum for massive tax incentives for the TV and film industry.

This seems to me as good a reason as any to cancel this boondoggle.

Although our illustrious leaders (tongue in cheek) believe that breaking everything down into little categories keeps us from knowing how they nickel-and-dime us to death, it doesn’t elude us.
