Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Join Jim and Greg as they applaud the direct and devastating attack from GOP New Mexico gubernatorial candidate Mark Ronchetti, as he blasted Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham for grabbing the crotch of a male staffer, claiming she did nothing wrong, but also paying the staffer $150,000 to settle the complaint while forbidding the staffer from discussing the matter publicly. Ronchetti was also very effective at calling out the governor for imposing lockdowns she violated on numerous occasions. They also cringe over the latest consumer inflation numbers that come in worse than expected and prove higher prices aren’t going anywhere for awhile. Finally, they slam Politico Europe for naming Vladimir Putin as their top “green” figure because ending dependence upon Russian energy will force a revolution in renewables – ignoring the reality of people freezing to death and facing astronomical energy costs.

Even if inflation somehow ended TODAY, prices wouldn’t go back DOWN unless there was equivalent DEflation.
Poor Jim’s Trump blinders fail him again. Trump didn’t say you could grab a woman if you were famous. He said that women would let you grab them if you were famous, a celebrity.
The story I read about my Governor Wuhan was that she knocked a drink in his lap and pulled the old ‘let me help you clean that up’ trick to feel him up. I thought a second guy came forward at some point.
She felt like a second tier Democrat during Kung Flu, bad but not horrible. Sexually harassing staff but not Cuomo numbers. Locked us down, but not like Whitmer closing aisles of a store. Caught flouting her rules but not at French Laundry levels. New Mexico just doesn’t have the panache of the popular states.
I’m a political news junkie, and I never heard of the New Mexico Governor grabbing until now.
I liked a billboard I remember seeing years ago, something like “Welcome to New Mexico. 60% cleaner than Old Mexico.”
It did make it on the Ruthless Podcast once, so it was briefly in the national news. Definitely didn’t get the traction it would have if someone like Kristi Nome had done it.
