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 and revelations in the media and from behind the lines in an increasingly blue state.
President Trump’s home in Florida is raided by the FBI and DOJ! I must ask myself if a Rubicon of sorts has been crossed and has a dangerous precedent being set? What strikes me is that even Yahoo and other leftist news outlets have been relatively quiet about this. I am surprised that they have not been trumpeting on and on about this event.
Considering the FBI and DOJ apparent conducting a search of a former President’s residence for what seems like politically motivated reasons I have to say that my mistrust of Federal Law enforcement notched up a tick or two. Now I must wonder what can happen to me because I am quite certain that what I am posting on my blog is not in line with the current left wing party narrative. Will the FBI come to my residence early in the morning unannounced and force me to stand outside while they “search” my residence? Who is to say that they will not plant something to charge me with or steal, pardon me confiscate or impound, valuable items that I may possess. I would imagine that Trotsky, Mao, and Stalin are jumping for joy in hell while Washington, Adams, and Jefferson are rolling over in their graves right now.
Speaking of federal government overreach and that I wrote earlier about the Inflation Reduction Act and my doubts that it will do anything to help me. Well, it seems my suspicions were not unfounded in at least one respect. 87,000 new IRS agents that as part of their job descriptions states that they must be willing to use deadly force if necessary? On top of that language that anyone making less than $400,000 per year keeps getting removed from the bill really does not give me warm feelings about this. It appears to be yet another front being reinforced in the war against the middle class. Additionally, it strikes me that as the military is being gutted from within by wokisms and mandatory injections of a product in stage 3 clinical trials the IRS appears to be raising an army. The only trouble is the army being raised by the IRS will not be held in check by Posse Comitatus ACT that limits the current military from acting within US borders.
I have a guilty pleasure that I must confess and that is I like to watch baseball. In fact, I even subscribe to Major League Baseball’s streaming service so that I can watch my favorite team’s games. This year I would have to say that my favorite team is under performing and not being on the inside I am sure it can be for any number of reasons that they are not performing. Some are obvious as they have been plagued by injuries which is just part of the game. Some reasons could be club house chemistry which I have no idea or I am in no position to comment. One thing for certain that strikes me odd is during the commercial breaks there are these segments that highlight different players from different teams around the league and not ever is there a highlighting of a player from my team.
Why is this I ask myself when there is multiple all stars on my team? Could it be a sort of retribution of my favorite team’s manager not going to the White House after their last World Series Victory for publicly stated political reasons? Could it be because my favorite team continues to support scams such as Black Lives Matter and flies all the rainbow flags loudly and proudly during Pride Month? I do not know for certain but all these examples have certainly soured my opinion of my favorite team’s management and ownership. I certainly appreciate their past commitment to winning, however, I will admit my feelings toward them have soured in recent years. So much so that I am considering whether I will continue to follow them after this year. It just is not entertaining having so much politics injected into what I consider to be entertainment. Especially when I disagree so vehemently with their politics and their opinions which are the opinions of millionaires.
I have been reading and hearing all sorts of things about a gentlemen named Yuval Noah Harari and none of it has been too flattering. I finally got an opportunity to watch him on television yesterday. I focused on his eyes while speaking and to be honest they never seemed to squint or open with expression. I could swear that his pupils never changed unlike those who were interviewing him.
God bless America and all its citizens, no matter whether they are enemies, not enemies or somewhere in between. Additionally, forgive me my trespasses as I forgive those who trespass against me.
