CNN Has Fallen, And Can't Get Up

 I watched the Joe Rogan episode with Doctor Gupta of CNN, and it was painful to watch Gupta take the punch-after-punch-after-punch.

In general....I can't watch much of CNN anymore.  It's just too much pain involved, and continually hitting the mute-button....say for three minutes, and the releasing mute in hopes that they moved onto another topic.  

It's like dealing with 5th-grade juveniles who've gotten a network job, and jabber away on things that they know little about.  

Still anti-Trump?  Around a month ago....I pulled up CNN for a few minutes, and they had launched back into another anti-Trump piece.  I had to maneuver through four years of that type of specialized reporting and really don't care to linger on the topic.  You'd think that they'd go over Hunter Biden, or any of a dozen-odd mistakes of the Biden Administration.....but they can't seem to find that logic.

The story behind the story?  You can view just about anything on CNN now, and have doubts that CNN laid out the entire story.  It's like a group of juvenile kids, who just want to tell you about one particular slant of a story, and you know there's three additional facts in the story....which are never mentioned.

In terms of 'trust'?  It's gone.

What happens to them?  I suspect in two to four years....some Mexican news syndicate will buy them, and convert it into Mexican-American news.  Sadly, no one will even notice this flip that will occur.  

Fixing the Christmas Gift Mess

 After a long bit of pondering, and considering the poor actions by the Administration (they should have grasped the problem already in June), I've come to three solutions to resolve the logistical mess:

1.  Christmas-Savings-Time (CST).  Basically, it'd work like Daylight-Savings-Time.  On the 1st of December, we'd move things back a month....so Christmas would come on the 25th of January....not December.  

I know....this sounds pretty hokey but we do Daylight-Savings-Time all the time....so why not CST?  That extra month would ensure store shelves are full.  

2.  We create a Christmas-Civilian-Corps (CCC)....where all out-of-work Americans are mandated/required to report to local logistical offices, and put into work.....driving trucks, and unpacking crates out in California.  

3.  Finally, we should just blame Donald Trump for the whole mess while it is the fault of the Biden Administration (particularly 'Mayor-Pete').  It'll make President Biden happy, and perhaps lessen the burden of Biden speaking in public about the massive problem.
