The Kevin Jackson Show
Welcome, folks, to The Kevin Jackson Show! First, let me start with gratitude. Happy Father’s Day I put out few tweets that I would like to share with you. Happy Father's Day to conservative dads. Somewhere a progressive woman is posting, "My dad is my hero," right before explaining why men are the problem. Holy Mother of Hunter, whatever else you say about Trump, at least he knows how many children he has and he accepted them all. Because "safe spaces" rarely stop an intruder, but a good father always will. America's world's most criticized demographic and its most relied-upon one. What a coincidence. For one glorious day, the war on men pauses for cake. My birthday was on Sunday as well, and thanks to those who sent well-wishes. Thank you to everybody who sent birthday cards, gifts, well wishes, and contributions to what I now lovingly refer to as "Operation Costa Rica." Based on the current balance, I believe I can spend approximately three days there, consume several meals, enjoy a few adult beverages, and possibly stand near a golf course. Actually playing golf may require a supplemental appropriations bill. But seriously, thank you. Melissa got me one of those see-through travel fund banks a few months ago, and I can literally watch the money accumulate. It's like a conservative version of a Democrat budget. The difference is my jar actually contains money. And I will tell you this. Every time I look at it, I'm humbled. I really am. Now... Thank you also for not celebrating Juneteenth. I know that sounds harsh, but hear me out. America already has a holiday dedicated to liberty. It's called Independence Day. We don't need a committee meeting for freedom. We don't need Liberty 2.0. We don't need Freedom: The Sequel. July 4th already covers the subject matter. The Left has become obsessed with creating boutique holidays the way Starbucks creates seasonal drinks. Every historical footnote gets its own observance, awareness campaign, commemorative T-shirt, and eventually a federal employee day off. Pretty soon we'll have National Day of Recognizing the Committee That Planned the Meeting About the Event We Already Celebrated. Meanwhile, the rest of us are waiting for fireworks and barbecue. Speaking of fireworks... We've got a full plate of crow to serve today. And Democrats are once again seated at the head table. Last week Barack Obama officially opened his presidential library. Now, Democrats treated this thing like archaeologists had discovered King Tut's tomb. The media acted as though civilization itself had reached a new milestone. I watched the coverage and thought, "Did I miss something?" Because from where I sit, this felt less like the unveiling of a monument and more like the grand opening of a very expensive explanation. Think about it. The Obama presidency generated so much mythology that eventually they needed a building to store it all. And the event itself had all the cultural impact of finding out what happened to Jesse Jackson. In fact, quick question: Where were you when Jesse Jackson's political relevance was buried? Exactly. Neither do I. The media keeps trying to manufacture nostalgia for things the public already moved on from. It's like watching somebody hold a high school reunion for a graduating class that never actually liked each other. We'll get into that story because there were moments at that event that were so awkward they deserve their own documentary. Then there's Jeff Bezos. And ladies and gentlemen, we may have witnessed something rare. A billionaire experiencing reality. Bezos apparently decided to say something that employees at the Washington Post did not want to hear: See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy [https://art19.com/privacy] and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info [https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info].
