No Man’s Land

I sit this morning with all media turned off to be with my thoughts, impressions, and prayers as I try and make sense of the election day and the four years leading up to yesterday and today. It is quiet but it is not a peaceful quiet. I am recollecting and pondering what I consider to be our nation’s first virtual election its implications today and potentially going forward. The nearest example to this eerie silence is the eerie silence that I have experienced before battle commences in military field exercises and the silence one experiences just before going outside the wire in a hostile combat zone. A sort of no man’s land in which anything could happen. The silence that one hopes they have all their kit in order and that their training will be sufficient for any contingency and that help will be close enough should contact be made. However, one difference today that I sense is I am not sure where or if there will be any help.

Let me state up front that I call this our nation’s first virtual election because as I recall the events of the last several years I am waking up even more to the corrupting influence Silicon Valley is having on our nations media, political class, and business in general. I will also state up front that it is not just Silicon Valley that is the corrupting influence but rather the dark unholy marriage between Silicon Valley’s vast financial resources with the corrupt political, media and business classes in our country.

In the last several weeks an expanded vision of corruption and the extent to which the vile nefarious wraith like influence of Silicon Valley’s influence has dawned in my consciousness. The vision of Jack Dorsey’s hollow sunken distracted eyes set in his hollow cheeked scraggly bearded face has haunted me since watching him get grilled by Senator Cruz. The brazen disrespect as exemplified by what I consider to be statements bordering on perjury regarding Twitter’s policies regarding posts and accounts that they ban and the reasons they do so just rang hallow to me. It took nearly another week for Twitter to remove their ban on the New York Post’s reporting of the Hunter Bidden laptop. It appears to me that Jack Dorsey considers himself to be above the law.

The next idea or realization that occurred to me is looking geographically where the most left leaning politicians in the country reside and represent relative to Silicon Valley. Obviously, we have Nancy Pelosi from San Francisco, Kamala Harris from Oakland, California. Two cities within a half hour drive of Silicon Valley when traffic is not too congested. Then radiate outward from here my mind goes to Hollywood a mere one hour flight from Silicon Valley which is represented by none other than Adam Schiff. And to the north we go to Portland another hour’s flight from Silicon Valley and finally up to Seattle maybe another half hour flight beyond Portland. Spreading east over time we have seen Nevada, Colorado, Arizona, and other states gradually leaning and going more left with passing time.  This year we have witnessed vast and huge sums of money being poured into political races throughout the country to include the South Carolina and Iowa Senate races. Where did this money come from?

I witnessed the Dot Com bubble and bust in the 1990’s and in fact participated peripherally in many of the conversations and actually embraced the advent of the internet and personal computing. I used an Intel based 286 computer to type up some of the first work packages, letters, and data base manipulations for my work and loved the flexibility and power that if provided at the tip of my fingertips. Using the Intel based 386 computer I explored the internet for the first time setting up an email account and communicating with my local universities servers I thought I was the mater of my own universe.

I remember visiting friends in the San Francisco Bay Area in the 1990’s and the energy and euphoria of the boom were palpable as one could almost taste the excitement and buzz surrounding the amount of wealth being created and generated. My friend’s wife started to work for a startup company and part of her compensation package was options on the company’s stock as promises were made, co-workers were investing their money in tech stocks expecting to retire at the age of thirty, and on and on and on. I remember noting the apparent, even then, ruthless competition to acquire talent as campuses were being created to keep employees satisfied and the vast sums of money being thrown at engineers to entice them to work for these companies. All the while property values and the cost of living in the San Francisco Bay Area continued to up and up and up.

Of course, this all came crashing down wiping out many life savings in the process and bankrupting countless internet and tech startups as it probably should. It is the way of business and only the strongest survived. To survive the slaughterhouse of the late nineties I will also submit that not only were some of these companies the strongest but some of them were the most ruthless. For instance, Amazon emerged taking out whole industries starting with brick and mortar book sellers. I will admit that Amazon is much more efficient at moving product than the traditional book seller but I am one who enjoyed the physical act of going to a store that smelled of new books, where one could browse many genres of books, and where one could sit down and manually flip through pages scanning and deciding if this was the right purchase for me. It was not a virtual experience illuminated by photons emanating from a computer screen. The survivors of this onslaught came out stronger, with increased market share, and began accumulating wealth beyond imagination.

What does one do when they have accumulated so much wealth that they do not know what to do with it? Personally, I do not know as I have not experienced this in this lifetime. But I have observed people like Bill and Melinda Gates building an expansive mansion near Seattle and starting a Foundation. I have seen Jeff Bezos continue to expand his reach into media, food, back to setting up brick and mortar store fronts, and seemingly reach to become the wealthiest man in the world. Google has quietly acquired countless companies while becoming a verb along with the most visited search engine on the internet. Facebook, to me is a time suck and quite honestly is drug like. I have spent some time on Facebook and have been shocked at how quickly the time has gone by engaging in conversations, reading posts, and making posts. Mark Zuckerberg has been quiet with where he spends his money at least from my point of view Twitter, on the other hand, sort of came out of nowhere in my world as I was already becoming disillusioned with the internet and all things Silicon Valley when they broke on the scene. And after seeing Jack Dorsey’s wraithlike drug fueled eyes I am glad I have not given Twitter much of my time or energy.

Where do they spend their money? Though I do not direct proof as I do not have the resources to thoroughly investigate my suspicions it has dawned on me that there is a pattern developing and patterns that I am suspicious of. First off, there is a rise in left wing Democratic politicians on the national stage who are from California. Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris, and Adam Schiff come to mind. Second, California is now a one party state and this has happened since the rise of Silicon Valley wealth. Nevada, Oregon, Washington are just about one party states and this shift has all happened since the wealth of Silicon Valley has been accumulated. The largest beneficiaries of the COVID 19 crisis has been Silicon Valley and their monopoly on virtual communications platforms and shopping. How many hundreds of millions of dollars of money were poured into Democratic Party candidate’s coffers? To me there is only one industry that can support the type of funding across the country and in the manner that the money was spent and the industry is tech and the media outlets it supports and is in collusion with. Have we, as a country, entered the land of Mordor in which the ever present eye of Sauron could fall upon us at any time and deploy his wraiths to do his bidding?

I know see the lines more clearly now and it frightens me. I am frightened and awestruck at the lengths these people will apparently go to maintain their power and influence. I now have to question the legitimacy of some conspiratorial theories that COVID 19 was a creation of an alliance between international leftists in the United States and the Chinese Communist Party to ensure President Trump is not reelected as possibly being correct. It seems while the majority of the people are in isolation a great power grab is being undertaken by leftist elites who are more than willing to censor, further isolate, black mail, and threaten violence in order to lead our country into a leftist collective hell hole ruled by an ever shrinking minority. If President Trump loses this election it will be a close loss and I have to wonder had there not been COCID 19 in which the Joe Biden campaign literally was able to get massive virtual support through television commercials, Silicon Valley censorship and suppression, media suppression of relevant news while in person meetings were limited if not outright banned by Democrat Governors in the battleground state would President Trump have won by a landslide? Would President Trump have clearly won once Democratic strongholds with ease? Again, with COVID 19 restrictions in place this election became a virtual election that played into the hands of Silicon Valley and their surrogates at the expense of freedom.

Death Cult

In the not too distant past, we learned and heard that ISIS or Daesh was a death cult. A label placed on this organization by our press and media. I have taken the time to look up and see if there is a formal definition of the term “death cult” and the most objective definition I was able to find is, “a fringe religious group that glorifies or is obsessed with death” courtesy of lexico.com. I think we can see why this descriptor was applied to Daesh as they spread their death and destruction across Syria and Iraq. They left nothing but death and destruction in their wake. I will submit that the German Nazi Party in the first half of the twentieth century, the Soviet Communist Party, the Maoist Chinese Communist Party and Cambodia’s Khmer Rouge could also be defined as a death cults. Though they would never consider themselves religious groups they based their power by preying on the fear of death in human beings. They not only threatened death but implemented and carried through with their threats. In the process they were responsible for the destruction of much of Europe and Asia which included tens of millions of deaths.

Yesterday morning as I woke up to the news of rioting and looting in Philadelphia ostensibly because of another police shooting of a black man the concept of death cult rummaged in my mind. These rioters and looters paid no mind to the fact that the black man shot was wielding a knife and coming at police officers. This and video footage showing the police officers actually backed away from the assailant in an effort to defuse the situation. Now we have yet another city run by Democrats in the throes of rioting and looting that will drain the life out of that city. I say this will drain the life out of the city because I can imagine very few of the businesses will want to reopen once the smoke clears, the glass is cleaned up, and the insurance claims are filed. Let us not forget that business is the life blood of communities, states, our country, and our way of life. I say business is the life blood because it is business that generates the wealth that funds and feeds our communities and even our governments. Business is the ultimate expression in freedom and innovation. Freedom because we have choices with who to do our business seeking out the best value for our money and innovation because the successful businesses will innovate to provide this value for the least amount of cost to the business owner. This so that they can number one pay for their expenses and number two profit from the sale of their product or products. These profits, in turn, are used to seek other services or goods supporting yet even more business. Like a healthy freshwater lake when water is flowing in and water is flowing out the water of the lake retains its vitality and is capable of supporting life.

Since I have started on the metaphor of lakes, I must point out that death occurs even in healthy lakes. Unfortunately, death is still a part of life especially in the material world that we live in. Eventually all biological beings expire and on top of that all biological processes generate waste. Even in the healthiest of mountain lakes biological processes continue and death occurs. What I will submit for the sake of my current argument, however, is the introduction of fresh water to the lake and subsequently the free flow of water from the lake allows waste products to easily flow out and at the same be replenished by and diluted by the fresh water flowing into the lake. All the while life continues and flourishes. However, in the unhealthy lake water typically does not flow out as freely or fresh water into the lake is completely shut off. When the water is not allowed to flow out the lake will eventually become brackish, swamp like, and otherwise much unhealthier for normal oxygen breathing creatures to survive. Likewise, when fresh water does not flow into the lake the lake will dry up and eventually die.

Likewise, from the bodies of ideas and politics, I believe, can be drawn comparisons to the examples of fresh water, brackish or dried up bodies of water. I will submit that the societies with the freshest of ideas continually replenishing the existing bodies of ideas lead to the healthiest societies and in parallel the freshest of political institutions are characterized by the free flowing of ideas in and out of the body politic of these societies. It is when the flow of ideas into the body politic is shut off or restricted that the body becomes brackish, polluted, suffocating, oppressive and unable to support healthy life. Or, in the extreme case, when the ideas are allowed to leave without any fresh ideas to replenishing the body politic the body politic has entered a death spiral that will inevitably lead to the body drying up completely leaving nothing behind but dried up brittle crusty sand.

Currently in our country we have huge out of control media conglomerates and internet behemoths who seem intent to shut out ideas counter to the opinions of the intellectuals and or ownership of these organizations. All the while, at least in the case of the internet behemoths, they enjoy the protections of law.  In the case of media, they seem intent to quash any news counter to the narrative the intellectuals who fuel their opinion. This while they claim to be objective purveyors of news. They have, in fact, almost seem to have doubled down on their claims and efforts to suppress and stymie the conservative message at every opportunity despite being called out and proven to be carrying out their seemingly nefarious actions. I will submit to my readers that because of this suppression we as a nation are precariously close to witnessing the death of the bastion of fresh thoughts, ideas, speech, and all other freedoms. We are precariously close to watching “the swamp” expand its poisonous life draining ideas and norms to the rest of the country.

Speaking of poison, I come back to the topic of the death cult. Let me remind you that the most objective definition that I found for the term death cult is, “a fringe religious group that glorifies or is obsessed with death”. I would submit that it appears with the suppression of opposing ideas in most of the media, the internet behemoths, the constant rioting and looting in democratically controlled riotous cities, and the obsession with Covid and their subsequent desire to shut down all business that the left is under the control of a death cult. No, they will never admit they are religions but as I have written about in the past, socialism is a religion. I say they are a religion because they expect blind servitude based on faith in the party or progressive ideals and have no proof to back up their claims of social utopia. So we have a very powerful group of people in this country who seem intent to usher in the death of the US Constitution and will use death and our fear of death in the guise of Covid 19 to bring death to our economy. Additionally, they use the death of black men to stage and support riotous looting behavior which in turn brings about the death of businesses which are the hallmark of lively prosperous communities. I see nothing positive or prosperous coming out of this except more death and destruction and this alarms me. This alarms me because I enjoy and give thanks for every day of life, the food that supports life, the means by which I have to support life, and for those in my life who I love. I also miss the freedoms to move freely in society without fear of retribution for not wearing a mask, attending live worship, sporting and music events, and all other manner of life sustaining group activities in which the free exchange of ideas, discourse, and social interaction occur. All the groundwork for the death cult to flourish even more seems be laid and the outcome cannot be good for any of us.

Random Musings 10.20.2020

Once again it is time for some Twitter (for those with a litigious bent there is a trademark symbol just after the “r” in the previous word) like random musings from the mind of a quiet, unassuming, at least in my own opinion, person observing the ramblings, rumblings and revelations in the media. Additionally, it appears that Twitter would most likely censor what I have to say any way and Facebook certainly would censor what I have to say.

I have been quiet the past couple of weeks because I, quite frankly, need a break from all of the junk on the news coming from both sides. However, I just watched the Clint Eastwood story of Richard Jewell, the security guard initially accused of planting the bomb at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. Needless to say, the movie left me angry and reminded me and brought my mind back to current events. Specifically, what brought my attention back is how in the story and unholy alliance between and FBI agent and a member of the press unleashed a witch hunt on an innocent man. An innocent man who was smeared and whose family was put through a press fueled ringer. All this for a crime committed by a man who later plead guilty to the crime.

So, if this happened more than 24 years ago how am I to believe, in today’s world anything that the FBI or government bureaucrats say? How am I to be expected to believe anything that the media says? So, now we have the FBI who spied on citizen and President Trump based on trumped up (all pun intended) charges when they claim Russian interference is responsible for Hunter Biden’s computer being left at a computer repair shop? How am I to believe all the major press outlets print and digital with the exception of Fox News and the New York Post? How am I supposed to believe all who appear to be in an all-out blitz to prevent President Trump from being reelected?

Oh yes, has anyone else found it fascinating that COVID cases are on the rise within mere weeks of the election?

Governor Newsome is now recommending that Thanksgiving celebrations in California? I am shaking my head.

I also have been traveling and have in fact flow into and a little out of the swamp of Washington DC in the last week and perhaps this is why I can not longer avoid the news and have to write something. It seeps out of the television and where I am staying, I am seeing BLM t shirts and hats being worn by people openly. I have to admit that my first thoughts are to ask if the people wearing them understand that they are supporting a Marxist organization?

Also, I have been watching CSPAN 2 the last couple of mornings and have to admit that I am unsure what to say. On one morning being interviewed by Karen Tumotty of the Washington Post were the coauthors of a book called Presidents, Populism, and Crisis of Democracy: Terry Moe and William Howell. This morning a woman named Tara McGowen was one of the people being interviewed and each morning the named people were Progressive apologists and supporters of the Progressive movement. Again, I felt a visceral reaction as these people are quite eloquent and truly believe in what they are saying. To be honest this is what frightens me. This frightens me because I do not believe these intellectuals really give a rip about me nor do they understand the laws of physics. I think these people truly believe that because they say something it is true and if anyone disagrees with them, they will do whatever it takes to suppress opposing views. Perhaps, they are being paid by Facebook, Google, and or Amazon? This is a small example of the problem that exists in our institutes of higher learning. Their minds are made up and using circular logic they are professing to know what is best for me.

Good on the Justice Department for filing a suit against Google. I am still waiting to see how people who ran a coup against a duly elected President are going to pay for their crimes.

I think I may have a new byline for my home page, and it is going to be something like, “Eventually the laws of physics will trump the laws of man”. The question is when and in what form will the laws of physics push back and slap the laws of man in the face?

I will not Zoom my Thanksgiving dinner! F*&k you CDC and any others who would even suggest this. I am my family consist of responsible adults who can make their own choices. Go back to being good little bureaucrats and keep your noses out of my business because you are no longer scientists.

So, the Presidential Commission on Debates wants to have a virtual debate because of COVID fears. Hmm, let me see I wonder if I could have backed out of my deployment to Afghanistan because of my fear of being killed? No, I took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States and so I did my duty. Excuse me Commissioners the Presidential Election is guaranteed by the Constitution and your fears of COVID ring hallow to me. Wear PPE and if you get it, the odds are you will not die. The numbers just do not back it up. Besides President Trump obviously has beaten it and so will not be in danger.

I think it is a great thing that the FBI broke up the plot against the Michigan Governor. I do not agree with any one of her policies but there is a way to legally remove her from office and that is the way to go about it in my opinion. Now, why can they not bring charges against the members of the Justice Department who plotted a coup against the duly elected President of the United States and arrest the bastards who committed these seditious acts?

Grandma Nancy Pelosi will not pass any COVID relief because she cannot get her pork passed? Good for you President Trump!

Since I was working at something last night, I missed the beginning of the Presidential Debate. I did listen to it on my drive home and watched the last half hour or so once I got home. I have the following comments:

Chris Wallace pinged on President Trump and certainly was not objective. He even seemed to bail Joe Biden out more than once.

The debate format stunk.

President Trump never once mentioned draining the swamp. I hope he has not become a permanent denizen.

Joe Biden was either very well rested or on some sort of drugs.

I think the Trump team should bring some radio jamming equipment with them next time. At times it looked like Joe Biden was listening to someone for his response and a simple visual inspection is not enough to confirm the presence or absence of an earpiece. Surgically implanted? Perhaps.

Supreme Court Vacancy 2020

With the year 2020 continuing its series of twists and turns we are confronted with yet another opportunity to either acquiesce to the sowers of discord and hatred or find our inner courage and stand up for what believe to be right. This time it is the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the guaranteed political maneuvering, machinations, and perils of her passing less than two months before the elections. Elections which include the President, nearly the whole of the Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and elections which have the specter of a leftist extortion threat of violence if the left does not get its way hanging over them.

Despite all of this my first take on Justice Ginsburg’s passing and the subsequent vacancy of her position on the Supreme Court bench is that President Trump and the Republicans have potentially a great opportunity to take control of the narrative in the days leading up to the election. Though I will be the first to admit, from what I see as an outsider, the path is fraught with peril, it will require some stiff backbones and it will require intestinal fortitude from the Republican Senate caucus. Much of which seems to be missing at times in the Republican caucus.

Specifically, I do not see too much downside to pushing ahead with the nomination and confirmation of a new justice. I say this for several reasons which include the opportunity to control the pace of events in Washington DC in the month or so leading up to the election and the ability to appoint a true constitutional conservative who will not be a proponent of judicial activism. Least of all and most importantly the President and Senate have the Constitutional authority to do so under Article II Section 2 of the The Constitution of the United States.

Starting with appointing a proponent of judicial activism it appears that the Republican majority could be in jeopardy of being lost in the election. If this is truly the case then waiting until after the election would be the squandering of a generational opportunity. Sure, the Democrats and their surrogates in the media will scream hypocrisy (which seems to be the going narrative already the day after the Justice’s death on NPR and other Leftist Media sites). However, Senator McConnel has already laid the messaging groundwork in stating that Republicans control both the White House and the Senate. So, game over, the Democrats, Marxists, and Leftists can whine and cry, but they do not have the Constitutional authority to do anything about it.

Politically, it does have the potential to create consternation and headaches for the Senators who are running in contested elections which I get. But again, this is a generational opportunity and a duty specifically spelled out in the constitution. So, they need to get over it.

This leads to the last thought I have regarding the proceedings and hearings which can be quite public. I would love to gauge the public reaction would be if the Bret Kavanaugh hearings were to happen right now? I am not saying the Democrats would approach the hearings the same way they did Justice Kavanaugh’s hearings but I would almost dare them to do so. I would especially like to see what Senator Harris and the other leftists have to say in the hearings which will undoubtedly be broadcast nationally. I this especially considering how quiet she has been the last several weeks.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

As expected, the year 2020 keeps on rolling unabated with yet another not altogether unexpected surprise but a shock nevertheless. I walked into my living room yesterday evening and my wife informed of the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG). Needless to say, the first words out of my mouth were, “Whoa! This is big”.

First though I would offer my condolences to her family. I am sure they, a person who never met her personally, have been watching her decline and speaking from firsthand experience of similar experiences have begun their mourning and will be doing so for some time to come.

To be quite honest I personally have paid little attention to the life of Justice Ginsburg other than that I pretty much disagreed with her positions on the bench in just about every imaginable way possible up to and included her use of her position for judicial activism. Just look at the name of my blog and this should come as no surprise. However, after watching some of the hastily assembled tributes and recounts of her life last night it is hard not to respect all that she accomplished in her life. A lifetime that began in 1933 and spanned across a period of time in which included so many changes in the world and our country. A period of time that encompassed wars, great social changes, a man land on the moon, the advent of the computer, and many other things to say the least. I must respect that she was able to have a family, go to law school, practice law and ultimately rise to one of the highest judicial positions in our country. To Ruth Bader Ginsburg, “I say Shalom and though I am not Jewish it certainly is not lost on me that you have passed on the Shabbat at the beginning of Rosh Hoshana. May you rest in peace Justice Ginsburg”.

I cannot believe so much time has passed since my last post already. This especially considering all the events that have happened and so much that could be commented on. Then again perhaps it is because all the events going on that have prevented me from typing.

In my part of the world we have been sucking California’s smoke for literally the last month except for three days. Today is one of the relatively smoke free days and maybe that is a reason for me doing some typing.

Hmm, it seems that Senator John Thune is partners with Senator Lee in supporting and protecting big tech. Senator Thune why don’t you just confirm President Trump’s FCC nomination? I wonder how much they have paid you, your campaign, and or one or some of your constituents. Are you a RINO or just a greedy bastard?

And the cheat by mail fraud scandal continues on with Pennsylvania and Michigan being the latest characters to join in the plot.

I hear that the State of Nevada Governor (Steve Sisolak) is now withholding coronavirus relief funds from the county that hosted President Trump last weekend. What a petty little man.

Talk about another petty man and petty dictator the mayor of Nashville is another one. I just cannot help but wonder how many more of the petty men and women in positions of power are doing the same?

I finally got around to taking my NFL, MLB, and NBA teams off of my DVR list. The next things for me to do are to cancel my Netflix subscription and shutdown my Google accounts.

I wonder if Prince Harry knew what Meghan Markle was really about when he married her? I would think that Marxism flies in the face of all that his family stands for but then again, he did step back from his official duties.

I had to laugh at Richard Grenell dressing down the reporter at today’s press briefing ostensibly held to discuss the Serbian Kosovo discussions and each establishing diplomatic relations with Israel. Mr. Grenell, I remember what was happening over there more than two decades ago and I agree with you that this is a big deal. A bigger deal than sadly many understand.

I was disturbed by a conversation between someone my age and youngsters who are the product of my states public school education and one a graduate of my local state university. In the conversation the college graduate kept repeating the typical left leaning talking points. Asking myself where they learned this as I know they did not learn these points growing up I can only surmise that it came from the schools they have attended. Taking this a step further I can see, first had, that something needs to be done to our institutions of learning.

Watching Fox last I was struck my Tucker Carlson pointing out the groups who have been endorsed by members of Congress and several in Hollywood. I have to wonder if there are legal repercussions that can be brought to bear on these left wing hate groups? Specifically, can the businesses who have been destroyed as a result of the violence fomented by these groups bring suit for civil penalties against these groups? Additionally, could criminal charges be brought against some of these groups and their donors for the violence fomented and what to me are seditious actions?

I never have really liked the articles that have started reading in The Atlantic in the past. Now I guess I will never try reading another article in the rag. I cannot believe the article saying President Trump said disparaging things about veterans was vetted by the DNC. Hmmm, do you think this may have been a side swiping politically motivated article? To me what The Atlantic reported something more like what Hillary Clinton or Perhaps Mrs. Pelosi might say. Hair? Give me a break.

Mr. President! Do you feel as if you are being stalked or perhaps have someone following you? Someone who seems to want to suddenly say the same things that you say and visit the same places that you visit? I think perhaps you do have someone doing this to you, however, you will not be able to send the Secret Service to investigate this person. I do not suppose it would be fitting considering this person, Joe Bidden, has his own Secret Service detail guarding him. I find it interesting, after listening to the speech he gave on Monday, that the speech ended sounding eerily like the speeches at the Republican National Convention last week. He even said God Bless America at the end. Not only that he decided to visit Kenosha today just days after your visit. Something sinister is afoot here. I do think, Mr. President, that you truly are being followed. Please do not let your guard down because that person, I am quite confident, can and will catch you if given half a chance.

Shocking!!! The city of Seattle has finally decided to clean out the park at the center of their own version of Marxistan and what do they find? Weapons, spike strips, and all sorts of other equipment used for rioting. All the while people are questioning in a yelling manner who is going to look out for the homeless? This because the professional rioters are claiming to protect the homeless. Well, memo to protesters, the police are finally being allowed to protect taxpayers!

Mrs. Pelosi I know you are vain and it comes as no surprise that you have been able to keep your hair colored and cut and maybe even get a nip a tuck though I am not sure of the later during the so called pandemic shutdowns. I rolled my eyes because I figured you probably had someone coming to your home and you know I cannot afford something like that but I know you can so I though to myself, “so what”. Now, however, I see that you have been sneaking into a shut down hair salon the whole time! A hair salon that has been forced to be shutdown and the owner maybe going out of business! Then you have the gall to claim that you were set up!?!? Maybe you were set up and you know what? You should have been set up and I am glad the store owner leaked the security tape. Oh, and though I live in a state that allows salons to open we have to wear masks and there are plexiglass windows and the governor of my state even has his gestapo (state OSHA officials) running around checking on businesses to ensure they are in compliance. If not, the salon is fined $5,000 the stylist $3,000 and the customer $2,000. So, needless to say when getting hair washed, everyone must wear a mask! Mrs. Pelosi, you are nothing but a hypocrite and cheap thug. What happened, did you just forget to read the fine print and just thought to yourself that you would figure it out? Now your minions are threatening, insulting, and bullying the salon owner! Apparently, the abuse of power is routine for you because it seems to be someone else’s fault and not yours.

I say take Tik Tok down and I am glad to see the restrictions being put on Chinese diplomats. What I find insidious is how the CCP is using the youth of America to insinuate their intelligence apparatus on and into American culture. I listen to my kids and they are upset that President Trump is going after Tik Tok which is one of my kid’s favorite apps.  Honestly, I am breathing a bit easier knowing the President is going after Tik Tok and has restricted the diplomat’s freedom of movement.

I had a thought the other day after listening to some news report somewhere or perhaps it was after listening to or reading several news stories. Particularly this thought went to voting and all the hoopla surrounding mail in and etc. I for one am against all mail in voting except for absentee. In fact, I have voted absentee while on duty in the military and was grateful for this opportunity. But what strikes me is this push to make voting convenient. First it was early voting and now it is mail in voting and a push to provide time off and etc. I am ok taking a day off to allow voting but mail in voting I do not think so. Anyway, the thought that came to me is, “Voting is a right and responsibility and it is not supposed to be a convenience!”
