Argus Hamilton's Rogue Report
President Biden asked Congress Wednesday for a federal tax holiday at the gas pump. That day I sideswiped a post when I turned my Cadillac too sharply into the gas station and the car damage cost me five thousand bucks. The good news is, it made the one hundred-dollar fill-up feel like a real bargain.

The Supreme Court extended Thursday’s rulings to Friday on gun rights, abortion rights black voting rights, and border control. Fasten your seat belts. The Distilled Spirits Council aired a public service TV ad ahead of the ruling urging every American to burn your city responsibly.

NFL owner Daniel Snyder of Washington’s football team may testify before Congress to answer allegations he hired hookers for team plane fights, groped women and pimped cheerleaders to VIPs. Reaction by leading Democrats was swift. Bill Clinton just changed his ringtone to Hail to the Redskins.

President Biden mistakenly blamed high prices at the pump on gas station owners Tuesday when it’s snack sales where they rake it all in. I remember when I could go to the gas station with a quarter in my pocket and come home with an RC Cola and candy bar. But today they’ve got cameras everywhere.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell admitted to Congress that his determination to instill interest rate hikes could tilt the economy into recession territory. The Fed Chief told the committee it’s very challenging to have a soft landing. He held up what’s left of the president’s bicycle as evidence.

The White House was beset by statistics Tuesday indicating runaway inflation, higher gas prices and economic stagnation. I’d say the next step is to get all the young swingers to forsake Hip Hop and Fentanyl for disco music and cocaine. Look, we’re either going back to the Seventies, or we’re not.

The New York Times roiled the mainstream media with an article Sunday questioning President Biden’s mental fitness to run for re-election, much less serve a second term. His policy is fixed on our needs. He’s going to Saudi Arabia next month to ask the Crown Prince to pump more baby formula.

Al Jazeera reported that a massive six-point earthquake rocked Afghanistan Tuesday that was felt for hundreds of miles throughout Central Asia. It must’ve been a very strong earthquake. Next day I was watching the news and everybody in Afghanistan is walking wounded with bandages on their heads.

Tiger Woods was reportedly offered a billion dollars by the Saudis to leave the PGA and play on Saudi Arabia’s new golf tour. Now all we need to do is get the Girls Scouts to offer Tiger a million dollars to identify as a woman. That way he won’t be allowed to drive a car over there and it’ll save lives.

The London Daily Mail reports that Brad Pitt was the mark of a French real estate swindle when he overpaid for a chateau believing the seller’s yarn that there’s a medieval treasure buried on the estate. Brad spent years digging for it to no avail. He’s set to star in a movie about it called Ocean’s Zero.

The British government is taking steps to deal with all the illegal Africans arriving by boat from France, and despite protests, the English have decided on a strict policy of repatriation to Rwanda. Last night the first British refugees arrived in Rwanda. They were Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla.

A Delaware judge allowed Dominion Software to sue Fox News for quoting the claims by Trump supporters doubting the 2020 vote count. The Leftists have their own fairy tales. The same people who said Trump colluded with Russia will also tell you with a straight face that Stephen Colbert is a comedian.
