@LeaderJohnThune That’s a joke! We don’t have more money in our pockets, gas prices are astronomical! Imagine what the home heating bills are going to be this winter. This is not what I voted for.
FWIW, adding to the “When I Got Cancelled by Fox” archives.
Happened twice:
1) I lost my @FoxNews employee contract after refusing to sit quiet during NYT’s false and defaming allegations against me that I was to blame for the mass murder in AZ causing the deaths of a federal judge, an innocent child and others, and injury of Rep. Gabby Giffords (D). Fox wouldn’t defend me so I defended myself after being told by Roger Ailes I was not to talk about it on the air. Fox was capitalizing on the controversy while my reputation was getting ripped to threads, so I spoke up, as any responsible, ethical, innocent American would. They canned me for “disobeying,” as per word from on high.
2) Later, no longer an employee, they cancelled my scheduled @JesseBWatters guest interview after I shared my opinion with @ericbolling that @rupertmurdoch handing management reins to his sons resulted in the network straying from the Right, due to the sons’ liberal-leaning wives’ influence. I was never allowed on-air again. (I stand by my stated observation that - good, bad or ugly - Fox changed when Rupert’s influence subsided.)
Pretty fascinating behind-the-scenes actions I observed in all my years working for, and with, Fox. It’s their prerogative to shift wherever they want to go, and more power to them exercising their absolute right to hire and fire whomever they deem best fits their agenda, but interesting that independent characters refusing to go along just to get along (all to collect a paycheck) seem to be the ones shunned.
I went rogue by speaking up for truth. I’ll continue to do so.
Governor Shapiro's unseemly rush to Lancaster County to convene a national press conference and his giddy delight in announcing two measles deaths was a morose commentary on the contemporary political dialogue. The performance was a replay of the Democrats' COVID playbook: fearmongering, misinformation, finger-pointing, and the weaponization of infectious disease fears for political gain.
The announcement appears to have been premature, and the deaths may even have been altogether fabricated by one of the Governor's hopeful staffers. The Lancaster County Coroner says that it has no record of any measles deaths. State law requires that all measles deaths be reported to the coroner.
Governor Shapiro shattered tradition and violated standard public health policy by refusing to share information with the County Health Department or CDC.
Since I have been in office, CDC has had a superb record of cooperation, information sharing, and professionalism with blue- and red-state governors and health officials. Those collaborations have resulted in effective control of the global measles outbreak in this country.
Governor Shapiro got his headlines. He correctly gambled that the slavish mainstream media would dutifully amplify his scolding without any effort to check his facts.
"The "Philadelphia Inquirer" found dangerous chemicals in the astroturf of the now-demolished Veterans Stadium.
Six Phillies who played on that turf, Tug McGraw, Darren Daulton, John Vukovich, John Oates, Ken Brett, and David West have died of a rare and aggressive brain cancer. The six players all died in their 40's or 50's, roughly three times the rate of the average adult population.
Even more alarming was their mutual diagnosis of glioblastoma.
The Phillies sold pieces of turf in sealed 4 x 4" bags.
The "Inquirer" purchased four of those on eBay.
Samples analyzed by two separate labs found 16 types of dangerous chemicals in the turf.
They are referred to as “forever chemicals” because they don’t break down and can last in the human body for years.
The US federal government estimates that 12,000 artificial turf fields containing PFAS or “forever chemicals” exist in USA.

And still no updates on this story!!!
"You knew he was going to be great the minute you saw him"
One of the greatest to ever put on a Phillies jersey, Chase Utley, welcome to the Wall of Fame!
