One of the joys of the COVID-19 slowdown for me has been that it has offered me an opportunity to do more reading and rereading of books that I read many years ago. One such book was “The Media is the Message” by Marshall Mcluhan. After reading the book for a second time the new […]
Use common sense and don’t believe everything you hear The hysteria being brought about by the liberal media is nothing short being an enemy of the people and trying to destroy our country by causing a panic.

But the defense industry has nothing on the DC Swamp, Deep State, Democrat Party and the group that does their bidding- “the Liberal Media Industrial Complex.” They will do anything, lie about anything, slander, manipulate, in order to make government bigger and […]
