The Watchdog on Wallstreet Weekly Recap for 4/3/2023
Lindsey Graham cries over Trump Indictment!
One of my listeners sent me a video of Lindsey Graham appearing on Sean Hannity’s program. And again, Lindsey Graham is, he’s basically like a little dog that Paris Hilton used to have. He used to carry in a little pocketbook. And again, he’s that little dog for Donald Trump.
So Lindsey Graham’s got tears in his eyes. Oh, this terrible prosecution. And he demands that listeners go to Donald Trump’s website and give him money to pay for his defense. And now again, we’ve had god-awful tornadoes rip through this country and there are people in need. And you’re asking people to go give money to a guy that’s got a private jet, has his own golf course down there that he’s staying at, played golf all weekend down at Mar-a-Lago, and you’re asking people to send him money? Shame on you and shame on Hannity for not calling him out.
CHINESE SPY BALLOON CONFIRMED!!!
Oh, as it turns out, the Chinese spy balloon was a Chinese spy balloon. And you’re going to hear a collective freak out. There’ll be a lot of panel discussions into the handling of the Chinese spy balloon and sensitive information from US sites. People, OK, take a couple steps back again. A lot of these television shows and programs out there, they’re reaching for ratings and I get that. But do you not think that we’re doing the exact same thing?
Do you think that we don’t have, I mean, for crying out loud, you know, Langley, a central intelligence agency, what do you think that they do there? For crying out loud, back in 2010, we got caught right handed. We were spying on our allies, their emails, all this stuff. You remember that with the whole Snowden scandal?
So before everybody has a collective freak out over this, understand that everybody does this to one another.
The United States is becoming China
Story after story after story, what should you do about China? What are we gonna do about China? China is a big threat. Well, if there’s such a threat, why do we look to become like them? Well, why is seemingly everything that we’re doing right now is Chinese? You know, you get this ridiculous restrict act, which again, furthers censorship on the American people. It’s a very, very Chinese thing to do.
To mention, let’s think about our economy as a whole. We’ve become very much like China. We almost have a national industrial policy where you have Washington DC giving money to chip companies and electric vehicle manufacturers because we’ve got to do things this way. That’s what China does. That’s not what has made us successful. And again, we need to get back to the basics.
Chicago’s new mayor Brandon Johnson is Lori Lightfoot 2.0
I, if I can be honest, I hope Chicago fails. Oh, I said it. Oh my God, how could you say something so terrible? Honestly, people, I know it’s gonna fail. I don’t have to hope it’s gonna fail. I know what this new mayor, Brandon Johnson, who’s further to the left than Lori Lightfoot is going to do.
What I’m actually hoping for when I see failures, I hope that people will actually at some point in time see the light and make wise enough choices. I was looking at some of the statistics today. One out of 20 black students in Chicago public schools, and mind you, the Chicago public teachers unions, they pushed this guy over the line, got him in office with the type of money that they spent. One in 20 cannot pass math or reading proficiency tests. This guy is totally defunding the police. And what do we see every weekend? You know, dozens of murders. Some important time, you got to wise it up.
How to deal with China: Don’t complain, compete!
I’m tired of pundits and think tank people on news programs talking about China as a great threat and parading military personnel as if China is going to invade us. Its dragon phobia is what it is. While I believe China is an adversary, I don’t think they’re completely a threat to us. Instead of whining and complaining, we should go out and compete. Competition breeds excellence. TikTok is outcompeting our social media companies, so let’s develop something better.
