Commissioners love to laugh...but not at themselves!

Commissioners love to laugh...but not at themselves!

Author: Wyatt Cox March 22, 2026 Duration: 1:00
I know that you all love to laugh.  You enjoy Rob Carson and Todd Starnes and their sense of humor.  Do you know who doesn’t have a sense of humor?  Your County Commissioners.  These people who love it when our hosts make fun of liberals, grifters, AOC and Ilian Omar don’t like it when others make fun of them.  One Commissioner went on the Drivel Dispatch Facebook page to claim that satire of the commission is part of the problem.  Satire has been at the heart of Conservative thought since Rush Limbaugh debuted nationally in 1988 until his passing five years ago.  It gets down to one simple fact.  If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. One Commissioner is under Federal indictment.  Could more be coming?  Remember Operation G-Sting?  The Clark County Commission may still be absolutely corrupt, but our commission may be a close second.
