Miscellaneous
Hey Guys! I apologize for not having the show on because I was forced to put it on hiatus. I was hospitalized for four days, and then I spent 3 and a 1/2 weeks exercising and rejuvenating my entire body! A lot happened, and I'm not at liberty to go into all the details right now, but I am elated that I am back on the show so that I can talk about issues I'm passionate about and allow people to make up their own minds about the current events transpiring in our country. So here are the topics for today: 1. The Mid-Term Primary Election Results. A lot of surprises and looks and shocked reactions from media pundits as well as Libertarians - and libertarians - on who got nominated and are now on the ballot. Michigan's gubernatorial battle on the Libertarian side was a disappointment as gubernatorial hopeful Bill Gelineau is now the nominated candidate over the candidate of my choice John Tatar. On the Democratic side, Gretchen Wilmer won the nomination as well as Bill Schutte. Lots of campaigns ran uncontested securing their hold on the ballot. New ballot initiatives are going to appear in November. My candidate Anthony Croff won uncontested and is gearing up for November, so as his campaign manager, Tony and his team and I have our work cut out for us. Who will win in November? Wilmer? Schutte? Gelineau? Democrats? Republicans? Or will it be Libertarians? Who knows. 2. Select Cities in California Ban Drinking Straws. A certain number of cities in California have launched a "War on Drinking Straws" because the Pacific Ocean is said to be contaminated with straws. A straw ban has been launched, making it illegal for restaurants and fast food eateries to dole out straws to customers who order drinks unless the consumers "ask for" them. Will this create a black market for drinking straws? Will these things be smuggled to customers, charging them outrageous prices? The plot thickens. and 3. Roseanne Barr's Interview with Sean Hannity On Her Racially-Charged Tweets That Got Her Fired from ABC. Roseanne Barr gave some shocking and detailed answers to questions that Sean Hannity asked her on his show, all over her racially-charged tweets that got her show yanked off of ABC and her fired from the network. Do people accept her apology? I do. As dumb as her tweets were she still had the right to her political views even if they appear to be "racist." Well, that's it. Enjoy the podcast! I know I will!
