Sully Says: Council Serves Special Interests

The County Council decided to reconfigure Little Falls Parkway to serve special interests instead of listening to the planning board or the public.

Rather than rerouting the Capital Crescent Trail 200 feet to the controlled intersection with a stoplight at Arlington Road, the Council implemented a “road diet” that removed two lanes.

I'm Surrounded by Immigrants

Legal immigrants just make sure they do it according to Hoyle and don't raise tempers to a boil. In the end, after all is said and done, we're done for, anyway.

The Melby Minute - No Kings Hatred

HATRED, VIOLENCE, NO-KINGS

There are groups constantly trying to gin-up political violence in America. Yet again the Left is planning another anti-Trump, anti-Republican protest March 28, using the No Kings moniker.

There are allegations that the George Soros organization, funding from Communist China and other far left anti-American sources are major beneficiaries, which should give everyone pause.

Correct me if I’m wrong but Republicans, moderates and folks on the right didn’t hate President Biden…they were disappointed he was elected, they could not understand why the media and the Democratic Party didn’t see or acknowledge his disabilities until after an extraordinary public TV debate, but the didn’t want him harmed – they wanted him replaced by his cabinet or voted out the next election (which indeed happened overwhelmingly). To put it bluntly, we didn’t want him killed.
