Ms. Warren: Red Lobster was a dying brand with very low average store volumes. They could not afford to pay their pad rents (even though on average, the rents were low). Their cost of goods was high ( seafood) relative to other uses. Had nothing to do with debt service. You have no idea what you are talking about; however, there are other countries that you could move to that agree with your socialistic viewpoints. Need airfare?

Let's be clear: Red Lobster went bankrupt after private equity bought the chain, loaded it up with debt, and gutted it.

@RealVegasLocaIs I think the message is clear: stay where you are and live in the political environment you created. If it's shit, vote to change it. But do not bring your shit to our state.

Thinking about leaving California and moving to Las Vegas? Before loading up the U-Haul and crossing the Mojave Desert, here are a few things Californians quickly learn when they arrive in a city where blaming California is practically part of Vegas culture. So be prepared. There will be loud opinions, and plenty of locals who will happily tell you one thing the moment you arrive: “Don’t California My Nevada.” 1. Californians get blamed for the housing market Even if you just arrived yesterday, someone will confidently explain that home prices doubled specifically because Californians sold their tiny bungalows for $2 million and showed up here with cash. 2. Californians get blamed for rent going up If our rent increases by $200, a local will probably say it’s because Californians moved here and landlords realized they could charge California prices. 3. Californians get blamed for traffic Any time 215 backs up or 15 slows down, someone will say it used to be smooth sailing before Californians started moving here. 4. Californians get blamed for bad driving If someone cuts us off in traffic, there’s a good chance the first guess from locals will be that the driver probably just moved here from California. 5. Californians get blamed for construction everywhere All those new apartments and subdivisions popping up across the valley will quickly be explained as housing built for more Californians moving here. 6. Californians get blamed for crowding the city If you mention Vegas feels busy, someone will remind you it wasn’t like this before Californians started showing up. 7. Californians get blamed for ruining “old Vegas” Vegas locals have deep nostalgia for the old days when everything was cheaper, easier, and less crowded, and many will tell you that all changed when Californians started arriving in waves. 8. Californians get blamed for turning Vegas into California You’ll quickly hear the phrase “Don’t California My Nevada,” which locals treat like a sacred desert proverb. 9. Californians get blamed for bringing politics with them If you say anything political, someone might immediately worry that Californians are going to turn Nevada into California 2.0. 10. Californians get blamed for changing neighborhoods If you buy a house in a quiet neighborhood, someone will probably say the area started getting expensive once Californians moved in. 11. Californians get blamed for the housing shortage Even when thousands of new homes are built, locals will say Californians will buy them all before locals have a chance. 12. Californians get blamed for missing license plates If you see a car driving around with no license plates, locals will probably assume it’s another Californian who just moved here. 13. Californians get blamed for saying “the” If you say “the 215” or “the 15,” locals will immediately know you’re from California, because in Vegas that’s a hard no. 14. Californians get blamed for California license plates If you still have California plates, change them to Nevada immediately or get eye rolled every time you drive. Trust us, you’ll thank us later. 15. Californians get blamed for wearing masks If you’re still wearing a mask in public or have one hanging from your car’s rearview mirror, locals will immediately assume you’re from California. 16. Californians get blamed for complaining about weather If you mention that 110 degrees is unbearable, locals will tell you “it’s a dry heat” and assume you’re new and just moved here from California. 17. Californians get blamed for trying to change things If you suggest Las Vegas should do something the way California does it, you may accidentally start a war. 18. Californians get blamed for the “California roll” If you blow through a stop sign without fully stopping, locals will assume you’re from California doing your California roll. 19. Californians get blamed for crowding Lake Mead If you go boating on a busy weekend, someone will probably say half the boats came from California. 20. Californians get blamed for restaurant lines If our favorite restaurant suddenly has no reservations left, someone will say, “Damn Californians discovered it.” 21. Californians get blamed for house flipping If a home gets remodeled and relisted for double the price, locals will often assume a Californian investor is behind it. 22. Californians get blamed for changing the vibe If locals say Vegas feels different now, the explanation usually circles back to Californians moving here. 23. Californians get blamed for bitching about our culture If you question fireworks, guns, or giant American flags at gas stations, locals will immediately assume you moved here from California and trying to change our culture. 24. Californians get blamed for higher grocery prices. If eggs go up a dollar, someone will eventually say Californians moving here increased demand. 25. Californians get blamed for gas prices too If gas prices rise, locals will somehow find a reasonable way to blame Californians moving here. 26. Californians get blamed for bringing LA attitudes If you seem a little too influencer-focused, locals will say you must be from California. 27. Californians get blamed for crowding the hiking trails If Red Rock Canyon is packed, locals will say Californians are ruining our desert. 28. Californians get blamed for Vegas growing too fast Any conversation about rapid population growth eventually circles back to Californians moving in. 29. Californians get blamed for still moving here Despite all the jokes and complaints, Californians keep moving here every year, which means locals will always have someone new to blame. 30. Californians get blamed by other Californians too Once you move here, you will quickly find yourself blaming other Californians for moving to Vegas. That’s when you know you’re officially a local and part of Vegas culture.

Well said. I'm not gay. But I will say that anyone, gay or straight, who has not been infected by stupidity, understands that men dressing as women is a lewd sickness that for some stupid ass reason (media, college campuses, politicians, etc.) has almost become normalized. This type of shit is what led to the fall of the Roman Empire! Thank you for your post. Patrick

Any group claiming to be LGBTQI+ are fucking frauds. Nothing but mental illness, groomers and fetish freaks. Real Gays and Lesbians want nothing to do with that woke degenerate trash agenda. Real lesbians do not date or fuck mentally ill men in dresses. Let's be really fucking clear on that.

Candace, you are wrong. I trust my President. The only President with the balls to perform the necessary. Conjecture, but my instincts are good: If you were honest with your instincts you would admit that when (not if) Iran had Nukes they would annihilate Israel and bomb the USA. There is no negotiating with Jihadists. History has documented this fact for thousands of years. And no, I'm not a Zionist (whatever that is). I support Israel because they support us. Iran's Theocracy does not....they hate us, and that will never change as long as they remain in power. Thank God for President Trump; finally a President with the foresight to eliminate the enemy that has sworn to our annihilation...... before they achieve their nuclear goal.

Washington D.C is lying to the American people about what is going on in Iran. It is not going well. Also where is Bibi Netanyahu? Why is his office releasing and deleting fake AI videos from him and why is there mass panic at the White House?

Hi Megyn: My wife and I have been loyal followers. I don't give a shit about Shapiro. However, in my view, Candace, and yes Tucker, have gone off the rails (National Enquirer shit). I'm sorry to say, our viewership of your program has waned. We support the war effort. A country that chants "death to America" for 47 years will not hesitate to annihilate US and Israel. Your view of the war is shortsighted...and you have lost us. In closing, two thoughts: Iran is evil and will stop at nothing to destroy us (whether it were to happen soon or much later), they had to be neutralized. Secondly, Candace is smart, but completely unstable as of late. Tucker is right behind her. Please Megyn, speak the truth, and prosecute them on your show. In my view, it is the only way for you to regain your credibility. Simply stated, call the out the fringe, otherwise you are one. Thank you, Patrick D.

Poor little Ben - and I do mean little - desperate for me to protect him. Can you imagine being this emasculated? Sad.

@FmrRepMTG Really? Be more intelligent.

Just called Thomas Massie. Phone rings. Thomas answers. Me: hey what are you doing? Massie: I’m at Kroger. Call you back in 10. lol, he’s knows the grocery prices. Do you think Trump has been to a grocery store to do his own grocery shopping in the past 30 years? Nope.

@JHWeissmann Why are the resources limited? In what universe do you continue to write checks when your bank account is negative? The answer is staring you in the face: reduce spending.

In what world is a property tax break for a wealthy senior citizen a good use of limited resources?

@atensnut My hunch: he is completely heartbroken.

President Trump has better things to do than attend the opening of that Gigantic, Ugly, Garbage Can!!

@grey4626 Candace, please listen to me: I think you have lost your mind. I don't think you are in a good place. If I were your father, I would tell you, be a great mother, raise your children well and love your country. Sign off on the podcast.

YES... IT IS FUCKING ILLEGAL... Candace Owens just publicly broadcasted this cancer across X: "Do not join or remain in the United States Military. Trump has betrayed America and expects you to die for Israel. There is no honor in being led by dishonorable men to your death." Read that again. Slowly. "Do not... remain." That's not vague opinion. That's direct, surgical counseling to every active-duty service member: walk away, refuse duty, abandon your oath. She's not whispering in a bar...she's blasting it to millions, including the very troops she’s targeting, with crystal-clear intent to shred loyalty, morale, and discipline. This is 18 U.S.C. § 2387...Activities Affecting Armed Forces Generally...staring you dead in the face: "Whoever, with intent to interfere with, impair, or influence the loyalty, morale, or discipline of the military... advises, counsels, urges, or in any manner causes or attempts to cause insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty by any member... or distributes... any written or printed matter which advises, counsels, or urges [the same]...Shall be fined...or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both." Tweet = "written or printed matter." "Remain" = explicit urging of refusal of duty and disloyalty. Accusing the Commander-in-Chief of betrayal to "die for Israel" = textbook impairment of loyalty and morale. Her platform reach = distribution with malice aforethought. Intent? Undeniable. This isn't abstract philosophy. This is psychological warfare, domestic division ops 101: poison the chain of command, erode the warrior ethos, turn patriots into ghosts who question every order. She's not debating policy...she's executing a precision strike on the one institution that stands between civilization and chaos. Classic fifth-column psyop: make honorable men feel like suckers for serving, then watch recruitment crater and desertions spike. We've seen this playbook in every conflict from Vietnam psyops to modern hybrid warfare. She knows the psychology of the foxhole...doubt kills faster than bullets...and she's weaponizing it against her own country. For any service member dumb enough to follow her venom? Article 85 UCMJ desertion or Article 86 AWOL, facing courts-martial, brig time, dishonorable discharge, and ruined life. But Owens? As a civilian, she's staring down federal prison, a decade in the hole, and permanent ban from any government work. This statute doesn't give a fuck about your "muh First Amendment" cope when you're actively trying to mutiny the force from the outside. This isn't one isolated rant. She's inciting desertion, refusal of duty, insubordination, morale collapse, and recruitment sabotage...all at once. In military legal terms, this is the exact shit that gets you charged when the nation needs its defenders unbroken. She's not "criticizing Trump"...she's telling the tip of the spear to drop their rifles and go home while enemies watch and laugh. Fuck this treasonous grifter. Fuck the enablers who call it "just a tweet." The DOJ has the tools. The statute is black-letter law. Enforce it, or watch the rot spread until the only "honor" left is the kind that gets you buried in an unmarked grave while the republic burns. This is how you lose a nation...not with tanks in the streets, but with one calculated knife to the spine of its military soul. 🗡️💀⚖️🗡️....... @Stellaaa

@bennyjohnson NATO is toast, a past due relic. For those who appreciate isolationism, we are there. Ruin our enemies, isolate and prosper.

President Trump: “We're gonna cut off all trade with Spain, we don't want anything to do with Spain.”

@johny_theblessd @EricLDaugh Hell yes.

@EricLDaugh Is this the president you all voted for America?

🚨 HOLY CRAP! President Trump is now CUTTING OFF all trade with Spain after their leftist PM said to not use bases in their country to strike Iran "Spain has absolutely nothing we need...we're gonna cut off ALL TRADE with Spain. We don't want ANYTHING to do with Spain." FAFO!🔥

You are simple minded. Start a war to distract from files that heretofore have implicated more democrats than republicans? My God, we are at war with a country that has sworn to our annihilation (death to America!) for over 45 years. Read the tea leaves, and rise above the partisan bullshit. Support your Country.

You and he are liars. He was a shitty "anchor", or whatever he was at CNN. His ratings were abysmal and that is why he got fired. "internationally known and renowned journalist"? Sharing dishonest comments like this is part of why you and most other politicians have zero credibility. Be honest; it might feel good for a change

Don Lemon, an internationally known and renowned journalist and friend, was arrested last night by federal agents and is now in custody in Los Angeles – simply for doing his job and following a protest into a church in Minneapolis while reporting the story. Emmy-winning news producer and Minnesota-based journalist Georgia Fort – another widely respected Black journalist – was also arrested by federal agents in Minnesota for reporting on the same protest. The arrest of journalists for going into a church in the course of reporting is shocking enough, but what’s even more alarming is that it's no secret that Don Lemon is a Trump critic. Let me be very clear – President Trump is not de-escalating anything after the fatal shootings of U.S. citizens by federal agents. In fact, the arrest of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort demonstrates quite the opposite – he is escalating. First, Trump’s agents shoot and kill people exercising their First Amendment rights, and now we’re arresting journalists going into a church. It’s an egregious assault on constitutionally protected First Amendment rights. I have reached out to the U.S. Attorney to check on Don Lemon’s status.

@BreitbartNews Durbin, you are dishonest. I would recommend you retire, dishonorably. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sen. Dick Durbin waved around an AI-generated image of the Alex Pretti shooting during a Senate appearance, insisting "the photo tells the story" — even though the image itself was fabricated.

@RapidResponse47 @RealTomHoman @POTUS If you’re not an idiot, you don’t die.

.@RealTomHoman: @POTUS said to me when I came here that he doesn't want to see anybody die. I have buried Border Patrol and ICE agents through my career and the saddest thing I've done is hand a folded flag to a wife or child. I pray every night that everybody goes home safe.

@LasVegasLocally Never heard of them, been here 25 years. Certainly will never go there now, I am officially boycotting businesses that advocate for lawbreakers. I support my COUNTRY. Go woke, go broke.

Yukon Pizza, one of the most popular pizza shops in Las Vegas, plans to close tomorrow January 30th to join a nationwide "economic blackout" protest against ICE and recent federal immigration enforcement actions.

@anbokrz @DMRussini Winters.

@DMRussini Why would he not be interested in the bills job but still has interest in the Raiders job? Huh??

Update: Mike McDaniel pulled out of his scheduled meeting down in Florida with the Bills yesterday, I’m told, and the two sides never met. McDaniel remains in contention for the Raiders’ head coaching job, but if he takes an OC position, it’s still expected to be with the Chargers. More: nytimes.com/athletic/69938…

@DorisMatsui THANK GOD, FOR BRENDAN CARR.

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr is pulling every dirty trick in the book to weaponize his agency against dissenting voices and attack our First Amendment rights. He is trying to mislead the American people and pressure talk shows to go easy on the Trump Administration. We must stop it. This is why Congress must pass my Broadcast Freedom and Independence Act NOW. hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-…

Frankly, if this is true Lexie, you should and will rot in hell. You are evil. I am conservative, but would have never wished those evil thoughts towards anyone liberal. BTW, I’m not overly religious, I believe in God, and I would strongly encourage you to go to a Christian Service, and read the Bible. You need help. PD

Meet Lexie Lawler, a labor and delivery nurse at Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital (@BaptistHealthSF). She says she hopes Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt suffers a severe 4th-degree tear during childbirth and has medical complications. "I hope you f*cking rip from bow to stern and never sh*t normally again, you c*nt." This woman DELIVERS BABIES. Terrifying.

@RonFilipkowski @SenMcConnell @RadioFarda_ @RFERL Patience grasshopper. Using the word "maybe" means you don't know shit...and you're speculating. Stay tuned; Trump is the author of FAFO.

@SenMcConnell @RadioFarda_ @RFERL Well, he told them he would protect them if they rose up, and then did nothing. So they are probably better off not hearing his lies and false promises. I wish we could black out his communications to us. Thousands died - maybe some who relied on his lies.

It’s been a week since the regime in Tehran blacked out the internet, and 10 months since USAGM blacked out its transmitters for Farsi-language @RadioFarda_ from @RFERL. What a waste of America’s tremendous capacity to share the truth. The regime is using the cover of darkness to slaughter brave Iranians who have taken to the streets. When @POTUS speaks to the Iranian people, why on earth would we limit that signal?
