Argus Hamilton's Rogue Report

Nancy Pelosi gave the commencement address to the graduating seniors at Brown University last Saturday in Rhode Island while her husband Paul Pelosi was getting arrested for drunk driving up in Napa Valley. They have been married for fifty-nine years. He's asked the court to count it as time served.

• Barack Obama tried to exploit the shooting in Uvalde by a mentally ill eighteen-year-old Hispanic teenager to try to advance his social justice agenda. I would assess Obama's reaction as disturbingly annoyed. How dare you shoot up the school during George Floyd Week and not be a white supremacist? .

• The Johnny Depp defamation trial against Amber Heard went to jury Friday after four weeks of mortifying testimony. For the most post, both parties have been well behaved. Friday there was some confusion in the courtroom as everyone was being seated when Johnny offered to push Amber's stool in.

• A California Appeals court ruled an L.A. woman cannot rescind a settlement offer she'd accepted after an LAX bus hit her car. She wants more money saying the collision gave her a foreign accent, ruining her Valley girl accent. Californians are the reason shampoo comes with instructions on the label.

• The Wall Street Journal said inflation is driven by high transportation costs due to the high gas prices which raises the price of everything. The Biden Administration means well. America is now in the grip of a severe obesity epidemic, and inflation is the easiest way to get poor people to go on a diet.

• The Journal of the American Medical Association reported the ten most obese states in America are in the South. That's because fried food tastes so good. Obesity is so rampant in Louisiana that a stage revival of Tennessee Williams plays in New Orleans is opening with A Streetcar Named Dessert.

• NBC News recently ran a poll on the mood of the nation and vast majority of Americans said the country is heading in the wrong direction. It's no surprise what issue is driving this current version of malaise. The poll asked if inflation is affecting you, and three hundred and twenty percent replied Yes.

• President Biden arrived in Uvalde amid the week-long around-the-clock cable news coverage of the tragedy there. The media saturation was unprecedented. If that sick kid who shot up the school tries to get into heaven, about all he can say is, he ended the war in Ukraine and eradicated Monkey Pox.

• CDC officials assured Americans that Monkey Pox is not the same type of airborne virus as Covid and can't result in shutdowns. Let's not waste a good scare. Research into Monkey Pox is starting to attract so many federal dollars that Senator Elizabeth Warren just claimed she is one-quarter Baboon.
