BUD'S BLOG WEDNESDAY, JULY 27TH
What's wrong with Trump? That's the question I kept asking myself Tuesday afternoon as I watched his first speech in Washington D.C. since leaving the presidency. He spoke at the American First Policy Institute Summit and focused on public safety and fighting crime that's running rampant in Democrat controlled cities. I watched, eagerly anticipating a high energy stem winder of a speech, with Trump tearing into Biden, and telling everybody what he plans to do if he wins the White House in 2024 ! What I got for the first full hour was a surprisingly flat presentation by Trump, with barely any talk of what his agenda would be moving forward. Finally, he picked up the pace and the energy level and got the crowd engaged. The biggest cheers for Trump came whenever he teased the audience that he might, in fact, become a candidate for President in 2024.
We'll play some sound cuts from the Trump speech at 6:12 and against at 8:12 and see what you think. And at 7:42, we'll talk live with our Newsradio WFLA National Correspondent Jon Decker, and get his perspectives on Trump's return to Washington.

Orange County leaders are considering a rent control scheme to put a cap on rising rental rates that are pricing a lot of people out of their homes. I'll you what they have planned and why I fear their ideas will only wind up making the rent crisis worse!
We'll talk about Monkeypox, which has just been declared a global emergency by the World Health Organization. Now President Biden may declare a national emergency over Monkeypox. A national emergency? Is that warranted, when almost no one has died from the disease and the outbreak is almost exclusively confined to the population of men who have sex with other men? Let's talk about it!
