HOLLYWOOD--God Bless America, and how’s everybody?

The Emmy Awards in Hollywood split forty-four awards between the Netflix shows The Crown and The Queen’s Gambit. HBO and Showtime also cleaned up. This year’s Emmy Awards ceremony really screwed up for failure to mention the death of network television in the In Memoriam segment.

Los Angeles gyms report huge business and long waiting lines to get in due to all the people wanting to get back into shape post-shutdown. Some exercises are downright brutal. On Sunday I had to skip the gym and my ten-mile run because I got completely exhausted putting on a fitted sheet.

The Betty Ford Center will celebrate its fortieth anniversar­y in November and the banquet will be packed with grateful alcoholics who began our journey of recovery at Betty’s Rancho Mirage campus. When I arrived in November of 1986 I preferred mixed drinks. I liked to mix rum with crack.

The L.A. Red Cross asked for blood from Covidimmun­e donors so I stepped up. From 1976 to 1986, I snorted coke laced with baby laxative using rolled up bills likely once inside a stripper, drinking Mexican beer and having unsafe sex with Vegas call girls. It’s called developing a resistance.

President Biden allowed cameras to show him helmeted and bicycling through the Delaware countrysid­e while on vacation on Sunday. The photo-op was no accident. I believe it was a secret signal to Lance Armstrong for the sake of our country to get Joe some performanc­e-enhancing drugs.

President Biden’s speech to the UN showed the difference in how his and Trump’s speaking style affected the General Assembly differentl­y. As Biden spoke, world leaders wondered if he was having a stroke. During Trump’s speeches to the UN, world leaders wondered if THEY were having a stroke.

The UN Secretary General labeled the tensions between the U.S. and China as the major threat to world peace Monday. He cited John Kerry’s recent failure to get Beijing on board with global warming rules. What did he expect, John Kerry couldn’t stop a ketchup fight at a Heinz family picnic.

The Senate Parliament­arian ruled Monday that Democrats cannot cram into the spending bill an immigratio­n reform rider to legalize thirty million people. Out here in California, we feel we’re losing our national identity. There are so many Canadians in L.A. it hardly feels like Mexico anymore.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dissolved Parliament early to hold national elections Monday,

which he hoped would increase Liberal Party support for his agenda. It’s a shame about the U.S. travel ban. I love to drive up to Canada during the autumn to watch the prime minister change colors.

Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau won a third term Monday despite an embarrassi­ng old photo of him that came out this past weekend. It showed a younger Justin in blackface and sticking his tongue out at the camera. He could have been turned out of office for not wearing a mask.

French President Macron recalled France’s ambassador­s to the United States and Australia Sunday two days after the United States, Britain and Australia signed a new security alliance. It’s a new world record. Joe Biden got the French to withdraw in two days and he did it without Germans.

CNN went nuts last week warning the leftist faithful that a a massive DC rally in support of the January 6th Capitol Hill Trump protestors was imminent. The few dozen protesters who showed up on the Mall were outnumbere­d by CNN, MSNBC, the cops and the FBI..I don’t know when the UFOs landed and dropped off all the stupid people, but apparently they aren’t coming back for them.
