    In real estate, it's location, location, location. In investigative journalism, it's sources, sources, sources. For nearly 50 years in Connecticut, readers and whistleblowers trusted me to expose corruption, consumer ripoffs and abuses of power without fear or favor. Today,

    As a registered independent all my life and as a 50-year journalist, I can assure you that outside of the WSJ most mainstream journalists are liberal. I don’t have a problem with that, but we shouldn’t lie about it.

    No wonder people think the squad is made up of Marxists. I’m a Biden person but I oppose sending checks to well-off people. You guys can take credit for all the house losses and for possibly loosing two upcoming senate seats.

    He didn’t pardon him. The document showed clemency. Not the same thing.

    Our black kitty. Can’t wait to see you back. I’m already tired of the professors. My wife and I want to see you take it all the way.

    How about convincing the Mormon Church to use some of its hidden $100 billion yes billion from the IRS to feed our hungry children.

    I’ll save my sympathy for the dozens if not hundreds of people he put at risk with behavior bordering on criminal. Can you imagine what those people are now going through? And he will get better medical care than they will.

    Why not a targeted stimulus. We don’t deserve any money as we didn’t lose anything from the virus. There are millions of others in the same situation. We’ve given our stimulus checks to food banks but I doubt a lot of others have.

    The 4.4 million is just the estimate for deaths in India. The real total around the world is at least 10 million.

    Interesting that the Miami Herald has not written a single story about DeSantis being AWOL. Their last story was from AP about a Democratic mayor being critical. What the hell is going on?

    If we want to outlaw assault rifles all we need to do is convince one million Black men to use their stimulus money to each buy one.
