Life Beyond My ‘Hood

So much going on and so little time to comment, which means we are due for another installment of news and views.

News: Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson debuted his Twitter broadcast Tuesday and racked up 71.6 million views in less than 24 hours.

Views: I didn’t watch, but something called Taylor Lorenz (in this era we don’t want to chose the wrong sex or pronoun from a mere picture), predictably from the Washington Post, panned the broadcast as not even stacking up against the average streamer or YouTuber. And that speaks volumes about the lack of perspective from leftist LameStream media.

News: Johnstown was courting a high-tech firm from California, Bitwise, in early May and by the end of the month that same firm reportedly was well on its way to laying off 100 percent of its workforce.

Views: But we still can count on Greater Johnstown having a never-ending supply of new pizza and coffee shops, not to mention all those trails drawing massive tourist dollars into the area.

News: CNN head man Chris Licht has been fired after just 13 months on the job.

Views: It was evident Licht’s days were numbered at the Clinton News Network when he went public with the plan to balance the network’s Democrats-always-right, Republicans-always-wrong coverage. There is an abundance of tone-deaf leftist media types to replace Licht. Maybe Taylor Lorenz was auditioning already with its Tucker Carlson diatribe.

News: Clueless Joe Biden, taking a break from falling onstage or hitting his head on the helicopter doorway – both of which he did last week – has drained the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to a 40-year low, continuing a 10-week run of extracting oil from the reserve in a political quest to attack oil market prices in pursuit of votes.

Views: This is the same Biden regime that announced in mid-May it would begin refilling the depleted SPR. Go to your calendar and note mid-May has come and gone and still the reserve is tapped weekly to bolster Biden’s already ridiculously low approval ratings.

News: Nearly one-third of Generation Z (ages 18-29) approves of government installed cameras in U.S. households to monitor for domestic violence and other illegal activity, according to a survey by the Cato Institute.

Views: The reality that 29 percent of these cretins are willing to give up constitutional freedoms for alleged feel-good purposes just reinforces my longheld observation that we’re doomed as long as public and private schools, as well as most colleges and universities, are minting fresh misguided Democratic voters.

News: Polling continues to confirm Biden is extremely unpopular among the electorate, that Democrats would prefer another candidate, and yet most will vote for him again because . . .

Views: . . . they are partisan zealots incapable of making an informed choice. See above News and Views installment about domestic surveillance.

News: True to the headline, there was nothing about my ‘Hood in this blog post.

Views: But I would suspect that narcissist Charlie Brown types spent an hour or so moving their lips while reading to make sure.
