VETERANS RALLY

M.I.A.

The Ripp Report has been missing in action for about two months. I had my 14th shoulder operation on Nov.4th and that took me out for about 4 weeks. That operation has been very successful. Then quite unexpected I got vertigo which has taken me about 4 weeks to kick to the curb. At the same time Meta locked me out of my social media pages, The Ripp Report, BCLE and F. Paul Ripp.

Scalped

A terror attack was stopped from reaching a larger crowd by traffic. A vet built a car bomb with AI, blowing up a Tesla. Leaders waste tax money on shady deals. Sheriffs hide their mistakes. Scholarships for students went to insiders. The governor’s health rumors stir worry. Teens with rifles fight in streets. A body found in a sunken car. Politicians let state pick police chiefs, ignoring locals. And finally, a festival and a demand to punish corrupt leaders. Alabama’s rules break like melting snow.
