President Biden will address the nation from the Oval Office tonight at 8pm to explain “His decision” to drop out of the 2024 Presidential race.

We think…

I mean that’s what the letter he sent out on Social Media over the weekend said…

Who knows…

But things are so confusing right now, your guess is as good as mine as to what’s going on and what’s going to happen. Le’t all make some popcorn and tune in…

Do You Believe in Books??

After 70 years of “Living life on her own terms”, 78 year old Cher is set to release a two-part Memoir that will detail the true story of her life in what she says is “Intimate detail”. Part One - which is said to focus on her marriage to Sonny Bono - hits bookstores Nov. 19th ands is 480 pages long.

- I was able to get an advance copy of the book… Don’t let this get out… but here’s how it starts:

“I was born in the wagon of a travelin' show

My mama used to dance for the money they'd throw

Papa would do whatever he could

Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of Doctor Good…”

THIS JUST IN…

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has RESIGNED… ten days after the failed Assasinatination Attempt on the life of former President Trump. Her resignation, which was announced via email, came one day after what many considered a disastrous bi-partisan hearing on Capitol Hill during which Ms. Cheatle answered virtually zero questions.

Meanwhile...

President Biden... Who has not been seen since issuing a statement ONLINE that he would not be seeking a second term... send out another tweet saying that he'll address the nation from the Oval Office tomorrow (Wednesday night) to let us know what's next.

Stay tuned...

On this day in 1966… Frank Sinatra's album “Strangers In The Night” reached Number one on the U.S. charts. And if I’m not mistaken… It’s the song Bill and Hillary Clinton play every year to mark their Wedding Anniversary!

And on this day in 1973… President Richard Nixon refused to release the Watergate tapes of conversations in the White House relevant to the Watergate investigation.
