Random Musings on Current Events 3.28.2026

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 watched the skies around me the past week and it has been a crisscross of trails left behind by airplanes. Some of the trails have gone literally from horizon to horizon and are definitely different than the condensate (con) trails left behind by aircraft in my youth. A time when jet engines were much less efficient and left behind all sorts of additional unburned fuel than the aircraft of today. Now I am reading that there has been an effort to change weather using aircraft and it makes me wonder. For years now it seems that the skies have been progressively getting dimmer and to what end? The science supporting global warming is dubious at best and most likely fraudulent and was started by scientists out of the UK. Geez, what could be wrong with this picture?

Senator Thune, why did you recess the Senate after passing the bill that was to finance the DHS? From my point of view it seems that you are unwilling to do what is necessary to stop Senator Schumer and the leftist Democrats that he purports to represent. I find it arrogant and hypocritical that while our soldiers, sailors, and airmen around the world will miss Easter with their families you and your fellow Senators will not miss or delay your planned Easter recess when arguably the DHS is charged with defending the homeland? Whether you agree with President Trump or not it does not matter. You are playing with people’s lives and now it will be two weeks before anything substantive happens. You and your fellow Senator’s actions are shameful.

Perhaps it is too early to say so but it appears the Trump administration is waging more than just a shooting war in the Middle East. It appears that an economic – information war is also being waged against European and, in particular, London based interests. Interests that have time and again used North American wealth to further their aims of imperial domination. I hope what I am reading is right and that President Trump could once and for all be devolving the US and European partnerships to ones that are more favorable to the US. It would be nice one day to be able to type, “RIP Lloyd’s of London and London’s control and speculative pricing of commodities.”

Lastly, I am still full of unease and a bit queasy over the lack of prosecutions surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files etc. To me, the most heinous crimes that can be committed are those against children and Jeffrey Epstein appears to have facilitated much of this. Sure, the reason these crimes were facilitated was to gain leverage over powerful people but the root of this evil is a crime being committed against a child. What bothers me is we are not even seeing the vast network of financial funding, laundering, and or other financial facilitating that Jeffrey Epstein and his handler, Ghislaine Maxwell, were involved with. Why is it the rich and powerful can get away with any sort of crime yet I have to provide two forms of identification to my bank and any transaction over $10,000 dollars is reported to the government? I know the answer and it is as old as men but I thought the United States was supposed to try and right some of these ancient wrong way of doing business. That Justicia was to remain blind to whomever the transgressor might be?

I will say that I am encouraged that some of the fraud in California is being exposed to the light along with the fraud in Minnesota. I would certainly have to believe in the reports that fraud is much more expansive in California and I hope others see that this is just the tip of the iceberg. Quite honestly, after watching Eric Swalwell, who no doubt is at a minimum a sociopath along with California’s Attorney General and probably its Governor, this will not be an easy fight and a fight it will have to be. These people will drag this fight into the gutter and will use whatever means they have at their disposal to remain in power. These people are criminal thugs using Communism and Socialism to support their ends. It is time for the California citizens to be allowed to be woken up and retake their power. Retake and, quite honestly, make it so the current group of people in California behind and in front of the stage can never regain power in the state.

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.

Random Musings on Current Events (Europe and Middle East) 3.20.2026

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 was sitting down quietly this week thinking about the ongoing conflict in the Middle East between Iran and the US and Israel and had a couple of thoughts. First, why is it that the Straits of Hormuz and any energy that flows through this strait impact the cost of fuel in the United States? After all, the United States can sustain itself and even more so with the supposed new oil coming in from Venezuela. Then I started to think about the international price of oil (Brent Crude) being the benchmark from which all prices flow, evidently. So, I had to ask myself, why is it that the price of oil in the North Sea off the coast of Scotland and England, ironically, the benchmark? Furthermore, why is there an international setting of the price of oil in the first place and that it is based out of London?

In case you are wondering, I continued to sit and think and it dawned on me that the country’s most in peril with the lack of energy resource coming out of the Persian Gulf are Europe and Asia who need the energy way more than we do in the United States and the Western Hemisphere. The next logical step in my logic chain was to ask why is it that Europe is always using the Straits of Hormuz as a bully stick to get the United States to provide security for Europe’s oil supply? I have left out Asia in this equation because, let’s face it, Europe is the instigator in most of these situations and of the Europeans there is no doubt in my mind that London is behind much of it. Again, I have to ask why is the United States still beholden to a power that we supposedly fought for our independence from in the 1770’s, again in 1812, and that supported the Confederacy in the war of Southern Rebellion?

So again I ask, “Why has the United States born the burden keeping Middle Eastern oil lines open over the past several decades?” I am aware of the theory to not use US oil reserves but rather use those from other countries first but is it worth it? I am also aware how British Petroleum became what it is on the backs of Iran and Iran’s oil for a century. I am also aware how the Saudi’s have used their petrol dollars to create the virulent form of Islam known as Wahabism. Perhaps the question I should ask is what or who has been behind all of the machinations in the Middle East the most over the last century or more? The answer is, not the United States but rather Londan and Paris.

Getting back to the Middle East and current events there at the moment. I do not think the radical Islamic regime of Iran should have nuclear weapons and if this truly was imminent as has been presented, I can understand the need to stop this. However, Israelis to include Benjamin Netanyahu, have been saying Iran can make nuclear weapons for years if not decades in an effort to drag the United States into doing their bidding, Much as Europe is always dragging the United States into their wars to finish them and that the founding fathers of the US warned us about. Who knows, perhaps Tel Aviv and London are one in the same? What is ironic is that MI-6 drug the CIA into overthrowing a popularly elected Iranian leader to replace him with the Shah. Then, the Shah was deposed by the Ayatollahs who were educated in Paris. Is this evidence that either French  and or English intelligence have been pulling strings in Iran for decades? It certainly seems plausible. So, Tel Aviv with deep London connections and Tehran with deep Paris connections go to war and the Strait of Hormuz get shut down. These are the same countries that have spawned the WEF and their stated goal of population reduction and that champion the use of environmental causes as one of the means to their ends. I have to wonder who really is going to benefit the most from this?

Speaking of games that ruling elites are playing it seems that the TSA employees have missed their second paychecks thanks to the Democratic Party’s refusal to fund the TSA. All this because of ICE which is already funded. I have to shake my head and say, “What?!?”. I really do not know what the Democrats expect to gain besides talking points pandering to their leftist base, ironically supported by the WEF, their minions, and various cut outs, because they are losing points in many other places. I for one am not a fan of the DHS’ forming on the heels of 9/11 and the subsequent passing of the Homeland Security Act. It was an act that essentially was already written to impose on constitutional freedoms and was just waiting for the right crisis to get passed. That being said, it is a reality now and it is going to start impacting our economy and already is with extended waiting times at airports etc. Somehow, I do not believe the Democrats really care. I can only hope that Congress can pass the law that repeals that members of Congress can bypass airport security screening lines.

I am starting to see another pattern emerging from the WEF and European elites and these are crisis of one form or another that typically start in the spring or the fall. The first ones that come to mind are COVID, the 1929 stock exchange crisis, the 1987 Black Monday stock crisis, 9/11, and like clockwork every spring another health scare of some sort. Heck, even the Spanish Flu outbreak started in March of 1918. It all just seems to be one large iteration of the same script and the vast majority of us are merely members of the audience. All one has to do is read the UK news outlets and this year it is meningitis.

Why is the Church of the Holy Sepulcher closed during Christianity’s most sacred season? I have read that the Dome of the Rock and David’s Tomb are open in Jerusalem’s Old City. Although this may change now that an Iranian missile actually struck the Old City yesterday. How come the most sacred place in all of Christianity is closed during its most holy time of the year but the Old City at large is still open? I would hope that there is not some sort of anti-Christian bias operating in Israel as American Christian men and women are fighting against Israel’s enemy in Iran. For now I will withhold judgement but it makes me wonder of the same forces are at work that shut an entire economy down during COVID to include churches but allowed big box stores to remain open? Could it be London or other intelligence organizations fomenting religious strife to achieve their ends as they have done for centuries? So many unanswered questions.

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.

Random Musings on Current Events 3.13.2026

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 did not even realize that it has been two weeks, yet again, since I rambled and ranted about the media and all that is happening or not happening. Here I go whether you like it or not because, quite frankly, I do not care.

I am going to start out with a question. Why is it that we do not have a Ft. Grant or a Ft. Sherman anymore in the United States? At least the names of Ft. Hood and Ft. Bragg no longer commemorate Confederate generals who, quite honestly, were losers in the War of Southern Rebellion. A rebellion led by Democrat Party slave holders who were supported by Great Britain. Last I checked US Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman kicked the stuffing out of both Hood and Bragg in the US Civil War which helped to maintain the union. Were Grant and Sherman perfect? No, absolutely not and I would guess that they would each admit that they were not.

My prayers go out to the souls of those killed and their families in the latest war. I also pray for those currently involved in the war and that the war is being fought for the right reasons.

I did not comment on President Trump’s State of the Union speech previously but my biggest take away is how obvious the members of Congress are puppets, especially on the Democrat side of the aisle. I watched the Democrats when President Trump challenged them with regards to who they support more, Americans or illegal aliens, and it was obvious some of the Democrats were uncomfortable remaining seated. However, they did not stand up. The only reason I can conclude is it did not fit the script given to them before the State of the Union address. I can only wonder who wrote the script ahead of time for them but the writers certainly did not expect the question that the President asked of them. It would be so refreshing to see members of Congress who are able and confident enough to stand on principal rather than from whom their next campaign’s contributions will be coming from.  Quite honestly, I have to give the President and his team high praise for the work of art that the State of the Union was. Secondly, the “crazy” people occupying office and their backers need to be rooted out of public service if not for their incompetence than for their traitorous behavior towards the American people.

I learned the other day that Joe Biden’s FBI had opened four special privileged investigations under the Counter Intelligence code against President and citizen Donald J. Trump and the MAGA Movement Furthermore, a counter intelligence operation, as currently written in US Code, allows for extreme measures against the subject of a counter intelligence operation. In other words, it is classified, it circumvents the constitution, and pretty much allows for whatever it takes to destroy the subject of said operation. Hence, we have the Russia Collusion Hoax, Mira Lago, the roundup of January 6th protesters, and who knows what else up to including, possibly, the assassination attempts on President Trump. These laws must be changed and those who participated in the obvious political weaponization of these laws must be brought to light even if they cannot be legally prosecuted.

This brings up another subject and that is the overuse of security classifications by the US Government. It has become so easy to issue classifications so much that everything becomes classified and unable to be scrutinized by any nationals of the united states. In and of itself it is cumbersome but what becomes nefarious is when the classifications are used, much like the FBI and its operations run against President Trump, for political reasons and or other reasons suited to one’s ambitions.

Lastly, how come the SAVE Act is stalling in the US Senate? Once again, I have to show identification to get a job, drive a car unless I am an illegal in California, buy a house, open a bank account and any number of other activities. Yet, I do not need to show identification or show up in person to vote? I will say that I am glad that Republicans narrowly control both houses of Congress but come on Republicans. Have you guys been getting elected fraudulently as well? How come you are holding up and not passing the SAVE Act? If you are trying to attach a bunch of garbage to the bill stop it and just pass the bill. Quit listening to you donors and if it means you do not get reelected because you lose your donors, so what? Grow a spine like the members of our military who are serving in the Middle East right now have and do what is right. Be an American for goodness sakes.

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.
