Well, the grand finale is underway. The Medal of Freedom is now like the Nobel Peace Prize; anyone can get one. President Biden awarded Hillary Clinton and Liz Cheney medals during a ceremony saying, “These are individuals who have made exemplary contributions to the prosperity, values and security of the United States.” UNBELIEVABLE! If you had any doubt he was feeble, this is proof. Might as well set up a vending machine in the White House lobby . . . just swipe your bitcoin wallet and out pops a Medal of Freedom. Wouldn’t it be something if one day a President awarded this medal to a police officer, teacher or animal rescue owner versus these sheltered millionaire politicians? I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the pardons for Biden’s criminal gang including Cheney, Mayorkas, Fauci, Garland, Wray and Jim Biden are just days away.

Meanwhile, President Trump is headed back to the courtroom. Judge Merchan decided to sentence The Donald ten days before his inauguration in the hush money case. This is nothing more than political extortion. When members of Congress dip into their taxpayer slush fund and pay off accusers, is that considered a legal expense? When will these incidents be investigated? Most likely when Hell freezes over.

President Carter’s funeral is this week. When he ran against Ronald Reagan, I was in grade school and Mrs. Drake staged a mock election for us, ballots and all. I can’t remember who won. I do remember that time in our history though; high gas prices, inflation and the hostages in Iran. President Carter had a tough go at it, but he was a good man. Other than Harry Truman, he was the only recent President who didn’t profit from the office. Both men were too honest for the D.C. cesspool. Fair winds and following seas Mr. President.

It’s a strange world we’re now living in. That may be one of the oldest expressions in the world. Hang in there Old Buddy and remember you can’t keep happiness out of your life anymore than you can keep trouble away. The problem is, you never know when it’s coming.

'Til Next Week:
