Disney doesn’t have anything to do with Fox News. Fox News was left out of the Disney/Fox deal.


You and EB should really try and keep up. The quote below is from the foxnews site.

"Fox News and Fox Business are now part of the newly created Fox Corporation. ... The Walt Disney Company's acquisition of 21st Century Fox will become official early Wednesday morning, with Fox News becoming a key part of the newly created Fox Corporation.Mar 19, 2019"

Which means Disney bought "21st Century Fox" and the newly formed Fox Corporation owns Fox News and Fox Business.

This is a good move by Kentucky, to install ankle monitors on infected people who refuse to stay home and have them be monitored by the corrections system.

I am optimistic that more states will start to do this.

I'm sure your president will explain it to you and it will make perfect sense.


Why exactly would he want military action in Iran? Please point to something in his history that would show this.

Trump has not gotten the USA involved in any wars. Not the case of Bush, Clinton, Bush, or Obama. Trump has had the most peaceful reign in memory.

So please, explain what on earth you are getting at.
The President is a fink.
