Once again it is time for some Random Musings On Current Events from the mind of a quiet, unassuming (at least in my own opinion) person observing the ramblings, rumblings, rants, raves and revelations in the media from behind the front lines of a purple state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants, revelations and gratitude’s in a sort of stream of conscious journal format and, yes, there may be some sarcasm thrown in.
I am watching the news out of Belfast, Ireland with a bit of interest. Two summers in a row that there have been anti immigrant protests that appear to be in predominately protestant or mixed protestant catholic neighborhoods of Belfast, if that matters any more. I find it interesting after a couple of decades since the Good Friday accords it seems that London is screwing over their base of support in Northern Ireland. But, why should this be too much of a surprise considering that London is screwing over the rest of England, Scotland and Wales as well. In fact, it makes me wonder just who controls London now a days and what is their cultural background? Something to ponder, no doubt.
Oh California, what a mess it has become thanks to the Frankist’s who took root in Berkeley in the 1930’s and that spread like an unchecked weed. First taking over the University of California system, exporting the ideology of Marxism to the rest of the once Golden State, then up the Pacific coastline to the states of Oregon and Washington, pushed into the hold out neighboring states of Nevada and Arizona and have since linked up with the New York City Frankist’s at the national level. Trouble is the Frankist’s really are Communists as evidenced by the legalization of (and I am sure some not so legal) election rigging in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona and else where. The US Senate needs to pass the SAVE Act because if the Communist Party of America disguised as Democrats ever were to gain power, I have no illusion they will do whatever it takes to maintain their power. All one has to do is look at the once Golden State of California to see what will happen and like a well established weed it will take much blood, sweat and toil to uproot and clean that weed out.
Is anyone else finding it interesting that gasoline prices are holding stable despite all the pontificating, fear mongering, and noise being spewed in the media regarding the Strait of Hormuz closure? I had been reading that some oil had been getting out and wondered how considering the US Navy had a blockade ongoing over the strait. This week President Trump cleared that question up for me and I am sure it had to sting the groups in Iran and their foreign backers that the US Navy was able to escort ships out of the gulf.
It seems that Israel is taking all opportunity to spread their de facto borders out as they are now pushing northward in Lebanon threatening and, it seems, in some cases even destroying Christian communities under the guise of Hezbollah hiding in their communities. If Hezbollah did hide in the Christian communities the residences of these communities may not have had a choice considering how well armed and organized Hezbollah has been over the decades. What is sad is that it is yet another Christian population in the cradle of Christianity being targeted by war in the cradle of Christianity. We have seen Christianity all but wiped out in Iraq, Syria and elsewhere by the Wahhabi and now the Zionists. One has to wonder when or if it will end and who will be next? Also, one has to wonder who created the Wahhabi and Zionism and something tells me they are shoots off of a common root.
Well Social Security is purportedly going to run out of money in 2032 and I am supposed to get worked up over it? This is the same tired old attempt to work everyone up yet again and I am tired of it. Congress is unwilling to do what it takes to restore my confidence in Social Security any more than they were the first time I heard this more than thirty years ago and quite honestly it makes me angry. I have been having Social Security deducted from my pay or decades and now I am being prepared to accept less than what I have paid into because of mismanagement by Congress! I do not know why I would expect anything less than incompetent corruption coming out of Congress when they cannot even guarantee my vote but it still makes me angry. Thing is, I think they want me to become resigned to the fact that I am not going to receive my share of Social Security but the more I think about it and the more angry I get I think it is steeling a sense of resolve in me to not be resigned.
God bless America and all her citizens and residents, no matter whether they are enemies, not enemies or somewhere between. Additionally, forgive me for my trespasses as I forgive those who trespass against me.
