May inflation numbers are in, and the numbers are once again lower than expected. So Trump is right again. Gasoline prices continue to drop. It sounds like a deal has been struck with China. A rare earth mineral deal has been struck with China. Everywhere you look, Trump is winning for us, not the billionaires, but for us, the little guys.

One goofball commentator, Marc Brown of a Los Angeles ABC affiliate, said this about the LA riots, “Just a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn.” It is unbelievable that people don’t realize that the graffiti, the vandalism, the burning cars, the looting, etc., all cost everyone! Our insurance rates are affected by the insurance claims from these riots.

To all you knuckleheads who support the protests and riots in LA, go to dhs.gov to get educated. There you can find a list of the criminals, their pictures, and the heinous crimes they have committed.
Democratic Vermont Rep. Becca Balint said during a town hall in Newport on May 29 that “we won’t have enough people to wipe our a**es” (she was referring to illegal immigrants). Vermont Democrats are now using illegal immigrants to wipe their behinds. Talk about demeaning illegal immigrants. Democrats are an absolute disgrace.

Evidently, a lot of young people are liking the leadership they are seeing, not only in the White House, but also in the Pentagon. The Army has already hit the recruiting goals for the year. Thank you, President Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. That is what is known as Making America Great Again.

Could MSM go back and film and show us the properties that were destroyed during the 2020 riots, and show us the condition that they are in today? Also, please show us a list of the people who bought these properties after the 2020 owners didn’t have the capital to fix them up. Thank you!

Getting back to abortion, how can a former pediatric nurse who worked in a hospital delivering babies agree with abortion? The answer is, I am a Democrat and agree with their stance on abortion. This is the Democratic way of thinking and control of their party and votes. Another answer speaking about the former President was that Biden has no problems; he is in good health.
A bunch of idiots showed up at last week’s Montgomery County Commissioners meeting to beg the county’s Democrat leadership to prevent ICE from enforcing immigration laws. Sorry leftist morons, local Democrat radical progressive elected officials can virtue signal by passing all the ordinances they want, but Federal Law cannot be subjugated by local policies. Get legal or get out. And take your crying children with you.

Protesting genocide committed by Netanyahu/Israel isn’t, of itself, anti-Semitic, despite political propaganda saying it is. Hamas brutally killed 1,200 Israelis. Response was essential. Israel has killed an estimated 44 to 1 — 53,000, many innocent women and children. More to come. Serious overkill (literally!) Claiming they’re all Hamas supporters is a blatant lie. The IDF claim “it’s Hamas’ fault” is another blatant lie. “Kill them all!” is simply hate. Says everything about you!
It’s called “manufacturing a crisis”! Sending in the California National Guard to agitate a peaceful demonstration is a disgrace. If people object to the ICE Police and their nasty tactics, they should be allowed. The Project 2025 playbook does not allow for dissent, and so we will continue to see this. MAGA patriots will cower behind their keyboards as usual.

KC, bless your heart, again! Trump’s quotes on gasoline are wholesale; no one knows every station coast coast-to-coast prices! News reports are US average unless a local network’s doing a story on location, it’s not difficult! Is Trump reckless with words? Have you paid any attention to Weekend at Bernie’s Biden and word salad Kamala the past five years? I doubt it!
Just the facts!
It is quite evident that reading Sound Off makes you aware of the fact that people are oblivious to the truth.

Hey there, Diana. You associate yourself with the Free Palestine protesters, and in your reply, you parroted their talking points (lies). I quote, “Netanyahu has killed over 55,000 Palestinians, 70% of whom are women and children…” No thinking person believes that. That remains a complete lie. You support them by parroting their lies; you own their lies.

I wonder if those protesting ICE have actual brains, or do they consider their cellphones to be their brains? None seem to understand the difference between legal and illegal immigration. One helped build the fabric of our great country, the other is a criminal act.
Kamala Harris issued a statement condemning President Trump and the ICE actions in LA. Harris also called the riots mostly peaceful. Blocking highways is not peaceful. Blocking law enforcement is not peaceful. Throwing rocks at law enforcement is not peaceful. Burning cars is not peaceful. ICE is acting lawfully. Harris, Newsom and Bass are pathetic leaders and are not acting consistently with their oaths of office.

Question of the day. Why don’t the people who protest everything have the protests during the week when these women can get out of the house while “The View” is on TV? They might even be able to get Whooooopie to come to their gathering along with all the others who find all things wrong with the U.S.
Did you hear the climate crisis is over? Greta Thunberg has said it was the only thing that mattered. Now she has moved on to Gaza and is protesting Israel. That’s why it is obvious the climate crisis is over. When she tried to get to Gaza, Israel intercepted the selfie yacht and said “no,” you are going to Gaza, to Greta. Probably the first time in her life an adult has said no to her.

One tactic the LA police should definitely try to disperse the rioters, that I guarantee would disperse the crowd immediately: Hand out a bunch of job applications.
Billy G.
The easiest way to disperse destructive protesters [rioters] is to just get a “honey dipper” and spray raw sewage on the crowd and the fires they started. I guarantee that the crowd will leave to get a shower! No tear gas, no rubber bullets, problem solved. You’re welcome.
