For those of you who may have noticed the event in the paper last week for the meeting of the Musselshell Amateur radio club, you will have noticed that it is Ham Radio that the group is meeting about, not a radio group for the music you hear in your car.

Joe Biden is writing checks without checking our national budget. Apparently he sees no reason for a budget. After all, the Chinese have paid his bills and bought all his houses. He hasn't any worries. The sad thing is these checks are not made out to the American people. He just signed a $30 million dollar check in the name of "Equity" to help Crackheads buy pipes and crack and methamphetamine drugs. This is of course what the state of California has wanted all along. He also is releasing between 100,000 to 200,000 illegals who jumped our sout...
