The ratings for the Emmy Awards were an all-time low. Who wants to see a bunch of egomaniacs pat each other on the back and spout liberal political babble?

Whatever happened to the disclaimers that before starting a diet regimen or an exercise regimen, check with your doctor? Don’t see them anymore.

Everybody shouldn’t be worried about President Trump’s taxes until Al Sharpton pays his millions.

After reading The Squawkbox for years, maybe the City Commission should rename Albany the Illiterate City.

Bo Dorough is right.

Why hasn’t our dysfunctional president appointed Dennis Rodman as ambassador to North Korea?

Eventually another of Trump’s tax returns will be released and when it is, we will find out that he has not broken the law and he pays at a higher rate than Obama does. I hope you liberals love crow. You’ll get a triple helping of it.

Motormouth Trump’s economic experience is inheriting a fortune, going bankrupt multiple times and not paying people for work they’ve done. This whole Russian thing’s unnecessary if he’d release his tax returns.

As I drive down the streets/highways all I see are drivers on their cell phones and most of them are texting. The police need unmarked cars to enforce the laws. You would think our street, Acker, was a drag strip.

Lawyer said Georgia Tech policeman was wrong in shooting the victim who came after the police with a knife, saying he was having a mental breakdown. So, the officer should just stand there and let the guy stab him to death? Once again police get blamed for the other’s actions.

Squawker excuses God for hurricanes and blames mankind for living in Florida and dying. When God sent tornadoes that killed five people in Albany last January, are you going to blame the victims for living here as well? Ridiculous.

Why don’t we have CON on convenience stores? Every time you turn around, they are building a new one.

To the squawker who alluded to looting and skin color: Whenever we attribute skin color to a particular character trait, then we are indeed practicing racism. A person’s race holds no bearing on what their character is as an individual.

Peter Sireno for president!

It is inaccurate to say President Trump has done so much for our country. The most “do nothing” president in my lifetime, all he has done is strike down some safety and environmental regulations that hurt the environment, but help his “top 1 percent” friends.

All the people in Hollywood who said they were going to leave the country if Donald Trump won, they’re still here. Why don’t they do this? Make California its own country, make Hillary Clinton their president and see how far they get.

I’m fixing supper right now and my husband wants a fork and a knife. I told him I need his last four socials, his mother’s maiden name and name of his first pet before I give him weapons.

A store here in Albany advertises cheap chicken, then a commercial promotes good, honest chicken. Decisions, decisions.

It’s a shame Ringlng Bros. Circus closed down. Guess they couldn’t compete with the circus in the White House.
