Add obnoxious leader of the girlband The Chicks (formerly called The Dixie Chicks), Natalie Maines, to the ridiculous list of D-list celebrities with Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Coincident with the celebration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the American Declaration of Independence is the 250th anniversary of the publication of “The Wealth of Nations.” The full title of Scotsman Adam Smith’s book, published in 1776, is “An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations.”

The CBS Evening News had to cut its East Coast broadcast short after a cameraman suffered a health mishap, towards the end where anchor Tony Dokoupil runs either a “Good Stuff” feel-good segment or an editorial. West Coast viewers got to see the editorial, and it absolutely cooked.

Young people now blame capitalism for poverty, racism, high prices, even climate change.  They listen to people like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who says, “Capitalism ... is the absolute pursuit of profit at all human, environmental and social cost. That is not a redeemable system.” Give me a break.
