I had the ABSOLUTE PLEASURE of having Carlos Lopez, the Spanish Voice of My Tennessee Volunteers, join me on "Crick's Corner" yesterday & the man DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! He shares with us... His family's journey from Venezuela to America, his path that has led to him sitting in the booth now, as well his future plans for "Vamos Vols"!! I LOVE the PASSION this guy brings EVERY SINGLE DAY & I'm excited to see what's next for him because I believe the SKY IS THE LIMIT!! He has an unwavering faith in God, as well as an UNMATCHED DESIRE to spread a POSITIVE MESSAGE TO BRING COMMUNITIES TOGETHER ALL ACROSS THE GLOBE!! The world needs MORE FOLKS like Carlos... I can promise you that!!! I have ZERO DOUBTS that God has selected the RIGHT GUY TO DELIVER HIS MESSAGE!! I wish him NOTHING BUT THE BEST & Look forward to seeing what the future holds in store!!

Bondi dismisses charges in Dr. Moore prosecution!
"Thank you @AGPamBondi for listening to the voters in the end and not letting this trial drag on another week.
I want to thank everyone who pitched in making sure Dr. Moore didn't serve any time and is not a felon."

“The United States of America won’t stand for a socialist New York City, never mind the Upper East Side. And not to mention the real estate moguls who’ve fallen in love for the first time with the current mayor, Eric Adams. They view him as the best bet against the pro-Palestinian and socialist Mamdani, whose policies would be bad for business.”
“Already, fundraisers are being held in the Hamptons and uptown, with high rollers writing checks and making pledges to support Adams, who looks as if he just won the lottery. Dapper and smiling while shaking hands, Adams is the sudden beneficiary of New York City’s richest residents.”
