underpants's JournalI just watched Fox & Friends and now I'm confused
I tend to flip around at 6AM to see what the leads are on CNN - Morning Joe - F&F.
What F&F shows is a blizzard of clips with the hosts throwing in “yeah but” type statements.
A summary is below but the point is that the viewer gets one step forward - two steps back. The obvious VAX MASK is stated but anyone who has “vaccine hesitancy” (because, politically correct) gets justification and questions.
Douchey (who plead for people to get vaxxed a few days ago and had all hell rain down on him in response) sat there silent, nodding, smiling through the whole thing.
Current female in middle with a camera angle juuuust above a peek up her dress looks repeatedly to co-hosts for approval starts every statement with “but then...”
Kilmeade (garbage) actually looks down and reads from a handful of stapled papers - talking points of what Sounds like statistics and facts. He speaks as fast as humanly possible too.
DeSantis clip - GET VACCINATED
Hosts: Leadership!
Biden (from last night) - GET VACCINATED
Hosts: but he said this a few months ago
Biden - VAX OR MASK
Hosts: very confusing. Yes agrees another host.
Kilmeade (reading feverishly) - over 2...under 12... (looks up) it’s just....
Reporter comes in screen - 83% graphic takes up the full screen “83% of cases nationwide are not vaccinated”
Kilmeade “again CHILD ABUSE” actual quote. He then reads more of 2 years...12 years old...schools...
It was a furious few minutes that left the viewer with little option other than to go with what they’ve heard for the last year every day all day.

Taco Bell's menu hit by nationwide shortages of ingredients
The menu at Taco Bell may be a bit limited these days, with the quick-service restaurant chain warning customers that it might not be able to fulfill their current appetite hankerings.
"Taco Bell employee told me there was a 'national shortage of everything right now,' and I have decided to get my economic news exclusively from drive-thru employees from now on," tweeted one patron of the Mexican-food themed eatery.
More specifically, a multitude of complaints on social media pointed to a lack of beef, chicken, hot sauce and 10-inch tortillas at the Yum Brands division, which runs nearly 7,500 Taco Bells, most of them in the U.S.
"Taco Bell has a 'district-wide shortage of hot sauce...times are tough," tweeted one patron. "For anyone craving Taco Bell tonight, I'll save you the drive, they don't have chicken or beef, national shortage or something. I just ate black beans in a hard shell," complained another in a separate tweet.

"SmartWater" first Va. indictment for theft. Lasts 5 years.
Petersburg man indicted in first case in Va. using liquid nanotechnology called 'SmartWater' - a substance that marks propertyA Petersburg man indicted in the burglary of an Ettrick business is the first person in Virginia to be charged with a crime based on the use of a liquid nanotechnology known as SmartWater CSI — a substance residents or merchants can use to mark property that could be stolen.
Gaines was confirmed as a suspect after police, using a special ultraviolet light, observed that his clothing was covered with smears of a colorless and odorless liquid that he had come in contact with when he allegedly entered the business.
The substance, known as SmartWater, is a traceable liquid that is coded with a forensic technology that contains a unique signature for each user. When brushed or sprayed on, it is undetectable except by ultraviolet light, where it glows yellow-green.
The SmartWater liquid stays on property for a minimum of five years. More than 200 households throughout Chesterfield — primarily in the Bensley, Bayhill Pointe and Mason Woods communities — have used the liquid to mark their various belongings, police said. Police typically seek to have residents use the substance in neighborhoods where burglaries have been a problem.
When applied, the liquid provides information to police about that item’s place of origin.

🤣 1,000 Accomplishments of President Donald J. Trump - no really he had one made 😂
As we sat for the interview, the former president’s press secretary presented us copies of a bound volume: 1,000 Accomplishments of President Donald J. Trump: Highlights of the First Term. On the back cover is an American flag, the presidential seal, and Trump’s thick, jagged signature. The book totals 92 pages and is organized with chapters dedicated to the economy, tax cuts, deregulation, trade, and so on.
Great read. Pay wall.
