Fun fact, the Great Wall in China was actually subsidized by the West looking forward hundreds of years to prevent illegal drugs from leaving China

I can't wait for the day when the tourism dollars start flowing in from future civilizations fascination with the, "Mediocre Wall of the United States".

I hear that you can see it from space!

all of these heroin/fentanyl overdose/deaths are really sad and need to be addressed like yesterday.  there is approximately 1 death/overdose every 5 minutes...EVERY 5 MINUTES!!!  translation, if there was a death due to bad big macs every 5 minutes would something be done?  the acknowledgment and/or action on this epidemic is being largely ignored.  so what the heck, let's legalize 'shrooms, they're naturally occurring anyway

but the border is secure eyn'a?

The vast, vast majority of fentanyl brought into the US from Mexico- like 90 percent - is done so by people entering the country legally. And the vast, vast majority of people convicted of trafficking fentanyl into the US  - like 86 percent- are American  citizens.
But sure, build a wall. It'll be as effective as the War on Drugs.

He does need to do more to combat the overdose problems in Mequon since the mayor is ignoring it

The most terrifying thing about the Biden presidency is that there were hardly more than 5-10 overdoses a year before he took office.  Now you might just get fentanyl in your toothpaste or can of Diet Coke.

I agree that Karine Jean-Pierre stinks, but she's just carrying the mantle of the press secretaries of the last 5+ years

Couldn't stand Psaki, but I think she was very good in her job. The press secretary now, is simply a disgrace and an embarrassment, hey?

I saw fentanyl getting gas at the Kwik Trip in Oconomowoc.  If it's in Cooney, can you imagine where else it is?

I can honestly say I have never had an opinion on a press secretary.

Yep. Same here, except for James Hagerty, press secretary for Eisenhower. Either that or I am confusing him with Jim Hegarty.

Always liked the sign over the front door of that bar when old man Hegarty owned the place. It had a Schlitz logo and the welcoming " Jim Hegarty Wants to See You" below the logo.

I was a fan of George Reedy.

Me too. What a contrast to the long string of press secretaries over recent years who are nothing more than suck up, kneejerk apologists for their presidents.

Why would you want to steal another vehicle if your whip is a Kia Telluride?

Given the no plates, wouldn't be shocked if that was stolen too
