Hopefully an actual conservative can challenge Neal Dunn. He is beyond awful.
@ Weed… credit when due; you nailed it. Like I always say; No matter how you arrange the letters D E M O C R A T… it will always spell HYPOCRITE.
DeepStatePropagandist and his/her/it’s banality is often good for a laugh.
@ West… I agree with Steve on this. Although Daily, Cox, and Richardson are Dems and I differ on most of their positions on most everything… they are not the delusional and rabid progressive Marxists the other two clowns are.
Note to Steve, I listened to your show today. You have got to stop giving cover to Dailey et.al. Dailey, Cox and Richardson are registered Democrats, when Ryan Ray makes a post as the head of the Florida DNC he is not “just speaking for progressives”. He is speaking on behalf of Democrats, of which Dailey is one. Dailey can say if he doesn’t agree with Ryan Ray if he wants to, and he has not done that.
First, thanks for listening. Second, Democrats Dailey, Cox & Richardson have distanced themselves from the progressives on a number of issues, including law enforcement (supporting more police officers) and growth (support for NE Gateway). I will discuss who controls the local DNC in future shows. Thanks your comment and please keep listening. Steve Stewart

Republicans took action and made corrections unlike….
“Ignorance Is Bliss”… Keep ignoring Afghanistan, the economy, inflation, high gasoline prices, out of control crime rate, inevitable impeachment, Hunter / Biden selling out America to Ukraine, Russia, and China equals traitor, and don’t forget the crimes against humanity.
Thanks for the laugh.
” During the Dec. 17 special meeting, the party stripped Ziegler of his authority and reduced his salary to $1. Ziegler would also not be allowed to fundraise or speak on behalf of the Florida GOP.”
I don’t know what the problem is. The guy with the 45+ point lead in the Republican primary skated through saying he grabs girls by the genitals. Ziegler should probably be under VP consideration based on the moral code of Republican voters.
“The major organizer of professional golf, the PGA Tour, is exempt from paying federal income taxes as a nonprofit.”
Great idea, why the hell are the tax exempt in any situation?
