May 26, 2023 Ridley's Believe It Or Not

 

L.A. County Superior Court Judge Lawrence Riff has issued a TRO banning L.A. County from requiring cash bail for misdemeanors and nonviolent felonies and those out cashless bail who commit offenses which means anyone who embezzles or defrauds victims of millions or smuggling illegal aliens across our border may have a get out of California or country flee card (the judge should have seen a study from the Yolo County D.A. that showed those who had been charged with either felonies of misdemeanors were roughly twice as likely to commit a crime before trial than those who posted bail. The NAACP has issued a travel advisory warning blacks not to come to Florida because of claimed racist policies of Governor De Santis. The L.A.  Dodgers have been caught in the Woke We Do Woke We don’t first inviting the anti-Catholic drag queen group Sisters of Indulgence, then after backlash disinviting them then after backlash from the LBGTQ community reinviting them only to then receive notice from Catholic Vote, one of the nation’s largest Catholic advocacy groups that it would be launching a $1 million ad campaign to urge the faithful to boycott Dodger games. Steven Forbes has made a bold prediction that Biden will not be the Blue nominee because of the “stench of a faltering economy” (if 1968 repeats itself Biden is LBJ,  Robert Kennedy, Jr. is today’s Gene McCarthy and Blues waiting in the wings are Robert Kennedy hopefully not aping the assassination). In the Go Woke Go Broke saga, Anheuser Busch and Target have lost a combine $28 billion in market value as a result of their transgender marketing decisions.  The nation is running out of time on the debt ceiling and one issue that should be a nonstarter to opposed by Blues is the Red goal to require welfare recipients who are able bodied and without young children at home to find work as the number of job vacancies exceed the number of job seekers by a large margin. As the debt ceiling crisis drags on and seniors were seeing their blood pressure rise amidst warnings from Yellen that the U.S. would run out of money on June 1 that would delay billions of dollars in Social Security checks, Yellen has lowered the blood pressure by affirming that the date we run out of Money is June 5.

            Word of the Day: the word of the day is “anomie”  which means the uprooting or breakdown of any moral values, standards or guidance for individuals to follow, examples of which are found in the smash and grab thieving mobs that have plagued many retailers across the nation.
