I would like to comment on the recent developments regarding those brave Border Patrol officers who used their reins to prevent people sneaking into a country illegally, prevent them from getting stomped under their horses' hooves. I have been to the border several times. Uniformly, all the Border Patrol felt those people behaved appropriately, and I think continuous studies have shown they behaved appropriately. But sadly, President Biden has decided to pick them out for punishment. It reminds me when he calls the police of this country racist--both completely unfounded. He only does it, I think, to divide our country, create divisions here. I would demand that President Biden apologize to the brave Border Patrol, those great guys or gals who, on that day, prevented the Haitians trying to slip into this country from getting stomped underfoot. I would also like him to apologize to the police of this country who are not racist and are doing a great job to try to hold down our murder rate. ____________________

lies, lies, lies. Sometimes you have just got to deal with common sense. Who gets overtime? When we cut the tax on overtime, the CEO of the pharmaceutical company who makes $12 million a year, does he get overtime? As a matter of fact…
