Squawkbox – October 14, 2025

After reading the article in Saturday’s Herald, if the misguided Albany City Commission allows Tripp Morgan to re-open the downtown brewery, there should be a recall election to get rid of all of them.

Congress, please re-open the government so my wife can go back to work … and get a paycheck. 

I don’t think enough is being made about the possible traffic mess that’s going to occur Saturday. With a few thousand folks downtown for the ASU homecoming parade, I can only imagine the havoc that will take place afterward as many of those folks head for the football stadium.

So, Fletcher is an Albany State graduate. That explains a lot.

Wow, so we’ve only scratched the surface of Morgan’s financial mess with the brewery. Thank you, Albany Herald, for clearing up the financial shenanigans surrounding that whole mess. To allow this man to do business while owing that much money would be criminal.

I hear Kristi Pet Killer is trying to land Zach Bryan a gig at the Salvadoran Supermax.

All you Albany State alumni in town for homecoming, welcome. I hope you have a great visit on your return to your alma mater and that the excellent ASU football team continues to roll.

 It’s one thing when Joe Schmo doesn’t know what habeas corpus is; but when the President of the United States asks “Who” it is, or his Secretary of Homeland Security confesses she doesn’t know, is it any wonder why this nation is so screwed up?  Let’s not omit RFK Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services. He thinks a baby in the placenta (not uterus) can get autism if its mother takes Tylenol. Lord, deliver us from ignorance in high places.

The money Tripp Morgan got — from the bank, from the city and from the federal government in PPP loans — is in the millions. Why isn’t this man in jail?

Trump ordered the FBI to search records linked to the disappearance of Amelia Earhart. Forget the Epstein files, forget the government shutdown, and don’t worry about the rising cost of everything. Let’s go look for Amelia Earhart. Your tax dollars are in good hands, folks. That Man Without a Family

The Communist core of the Democratic Party wants a dictatorship. They commit election fraud to win elections. They work hand and hand with America’s foreign enemies.

That’s some detail-oriented, well-sourced and impactful journalism in the story about Morgan and Pretoria Fields. It’s one of those stories that makes you wonder how city officials could even remotely consider doing business with this man. Thanks for giving us the details.
