Random Musings on Current Events 10.28.2023

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 from behind the front lines of a purple state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format.

The drum beat for kinetic war continue to beat in the Middle East and sides are being drawn and activated. Is there anyone else out there concerned that this could lead to a much greater conflagration? It certainly seems not considering newly elected Speaker of the House Johnson’s first speech as such included more money laundering, pardon me, support for Ukraine. This while the politicians in the United States are practically in open verbal warfare against each other’s sides over whose side the U.S. should be on and to what degree we should be. War is a racket!

I still have not heard anyone in the mainstream ask the question about how the Israeli’s left their border with Gaza in such a way that Hamas was able to penetrate and do what they did and so successfully? Someone within the Israeli security apparatus had to stand the defenses down for the period of time it took the massacre to develop and occur in the way it did. You also cannot make me believe that the Israeli security and intelligence apparatus along with the United States and other western power’s intelligence agencies did not know something was up. Now it seems there are hidden forces doing what they can do to stoke this tension due to the continual uptick in rhetoric.

Another “mass shooting” in the United States only this time it was in the state of Maine. It seems the shooter and main suspect is now dead of self-inflicted wounds(?). This gentleman, according to the msm narrative had mental problems to include hearing voices in the weeks leading up to what he did. I must wonder if he had received the mRNA jab and if so when he received it? Of course, this little data nugget will never be reported on.

I am tempted to not comment on the immediate response of the Democratic Marxist Party members espousing the need for more gun control. This in the minutes after the story broke before any relevant information had been received. I was tempted to not comment because I have said it before and I am getting tired of saying the same old thing. They are Marxist/Leninist/Trotskyites and I will type no more.

I visited my local county offices this week and noticed that the flags they are flying have the gold fringe. It seems, I am learning, that this could mean that they espouse themselves to be some sort of corporation operating under Maritime Law and not Common Law, which is the original law of the land in the United States. Does this mean they are operating outside the bounds of the Constitution? Something that I need to learn and investigate, no doubt.

We are rapidly approaching the second anniversary of the death of my child whose death I blame on COVID, the response to COVID, and Pfizer who provided the vaccine that this child took thirty days prior to my child’s death. Am I angry? Sure, and I am also sad and not sure where this child’s death will take me. I constantly must remind myself of my Christian upbringing and pray for the purveyors of death who unleashed the man made virus and continue to profit from the government and industry’s responses to the virus.

God bless America and all her citizens and residents, 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.

I have been quite busy the last several weeks and have missed my personal deadlines not once but twice with regards to posting my ramblings, rumbles, rants and revelations. During the course of these two weeks, I had a bit of a personal revelation or perhaps made an interesting observation.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Israel and the victims of last week’s terror attacks perpetrated by the evil followers of Mohammad. Additionally, my thoughts and prayers go out to the peaceful followers of Islam in the Gaza strip. As it seems to always happen the innocent get caught in the crossfire of the evil one’s actions.

Does anyone else find it ironic that the terror attacks on Israel happened the Friday before the Monday that RFK Jr. announced his bid to run for President as a third party candidate? His announcement barely made the news as all the news was about the terror attack.

Kevin McCarthy is no longer speaker of the house and Nancy Pelosi held the Democrat caucus firm in its resolve to not support him. I have always questioned how a Republican from California could be leader of the Republican caucus in the House which is at the national level. I question this because the Republican Party in California is but a shell of a party and is essentially controlled opposition at the best. Perhaps Mr. McCarthy and any other Republican from California should focus on their own backyard before trying to assume the mantle of any national position because from where I sit there are mountains of work to be done in California to reverse the state’s slide into a third world, narco, corrupt, Marxist one party rule petty dictatorship.

I learned recently that the animal doctor CEO of Pfizer is the highest paid executive in the pharmaceutical industry. All I can say is God bless him because the other thoughts that I have regarding this demonic possession probably would not serve me well in the after life.

Please pardon any implied vitriol that may have been apparent in my previous rambling about the horse doctor. Perhaps it is vitriolic because I am approaching the second anniversary of the death of a child 30 days after taking the second dose of the Pfizer Covid vaccine. Thirty days that saw my child experience increasing headaches, dark thoughts, and what I call a disconnect from spirit. A batch that according to VAERS was one of the worst, in the months after my child’s death. However, over time, somehow, this batch’s adverse reporting changed to a batch that was not so bad. Call me cynical, which I am, and lacking trust over anything “official” now a days.

Speaking of which, all these events happening around the world and it is late morning in my part of the world. I think I am going to call a lid on my public activities and take a nap. Oh no! Wait a minute! I just stole a line from the Biden administration. I hope I do not get raided by a DOJ swat team for my feeble attempt at satire.

Speaking of satire and Joe Biden, where is Joe Biden? Where is the denouncement of today being a global day of Jihad by Hamas? Of course, why should I expect anything different from his puppets who kept their puppet Joe asleep and under lid after the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment and the Lahaina, Hawaii fire?

Texas Attorney General Paxton was acquitted by the Texas Senate in his impeachment trial. I do not know nor do I pretend to know the specifics other than AG Paxton supported Trump in the last Presidential Election to include questioning the validity of vote counting etc. With all the, pardon the pun, trumped up charges against President Trump and many of his supporters I cannot help but wonder if the same trumping up of charges was brought against AG Paxton.

An armed man posing as a US Marshall was arrested at a rally that featured RFK Jr. as a guest speaker mere miles from where his father was murdered. In the process of reading this story I learned that the Department of Justice has refused Secret Service protection for RFK Jr. despite his requesting this protection. I find this interesting but perhaps it is best for RFK that he does not have Secret Service protection like his dad and uncle had.

So, Hunter Biden has filed suit against the IRS. I wonder how much longer his handlers in the FBI, DOJ, CIA, DIA, and the Campbell Soup Factory are going to keep covering for him?

It seems there is yet another threat of a government shutdown. Yawn, another rerun from the 1980’s? Do I expect any different outcome than any of the other looming, threatened or otherwise potentially catastrophic government shutdowns? No, just a bunch of pontificating and jockeying for my brain space by the mainstream media and government mandarins. As I say, yawn.

President Biden’s handlers have put Kamala Harris in charge of an executive Office of Gun Violence Protection!?!? Let me scratch my head for a minute. I was in Oakland California earlier this summer and it looks like a third world dump, is crime infested, and is in California one of the states with the most restrictive gun control laws in the united States of America. Does anyone else think their homes are going to be safer? Oh yeah, I forgot, VP Harris has done such a great job at the border that I am sure she will do a good job in this new position as well.

I want to pause and remember the anniversary of September 11, 2001, and the memory of those who were murdered by Islamic Terrorists and those who supported the terrorists. Not only that but to honor the memory of those who paid the ultimate price in the Global War on Terrorism because of the that day. Additionally, I would like to honor those who served and their families who supported those who served over the decades in this endeavor.

I had to laugh at the elite effete snobs of Burning Man getting mired in the mud this year. No, I did not feel sorry for them one bit and I am sure that if one were to ask any of them, they would be the first to say they do not want anyone feeling sorry for them because they are too proud to admit it. The image of mud coming out of portable toilets conjured the image of the mud demon in the movie Dogma for me which, perhaps, is why I laughed. Even more ironic is that Chris Rock, who starred in Dogma was at Burning Man and had to hitch a ride in the back of a pickup truck to paved road to get out of Burning Man’s “Black Rock City”. It has been said it is better to laugh than to cry, though, at this moment I am not sure I necessarily agree with that statement.

What is going on in Lahaina? It seems that the installation of the curtain of opacity has been finished. No satellite, no drones, and collusion, yet again, between government and big tech to censor any news around this event. Not only that but the official propaganda, ahem pardon me, media has pushed this event out of its news cycle. What really is going on there? Will we ever know? Was it MECO equipment? Was it a directed energy weapon? Was it an arsonist? Why did the police stop traffic from leaving Lahaina? How come there are reports of hundreds of children if not thousands not showing up for school? Why is there a “dust control” fence up around the site? What did the FBI divers find? What is up with the former Las Vegas Police Chief now being the Maui County Police Chief? Why didn’t the US Coast Guard release the numbers of victims pulled from the waters surrounding Lahaina? Will we ever have the answers to these questions or will we be wondering decades later much as we still wonder about the assassination of JFK? Wait a minute, I have been to Dallas where he was murdered and there is no doubt, in my mind, that it was a coordinated ambush. What does this knowledge say about Lahaina to me?

Gen. Frank McKenzie was interviewed on Fox News and was asked about the withdrawal from Afghanistan. He stated that withdrawing from Bagram before the evacuation was a mistake and that he feels history will “…view the decision to come out of Afghanistan and the way that we did and the manner that we were directed to come out as a fatal flaw.” I had to read this twice because he is claiming that he was directed to withdraw in the manner that we did and I know it is within the realm of reality that he was ordered to do so. Number one, I can respect his following orders as he should have done so. However, that being said he was already a General and his retirement was secure even if only at Lieutenant General pay and almost any fool knew Bagram was much easier to secure than the Kabul airport. If he knew better then why did he not resign instead of following foolish, at best, or malignant and misguided orders in the worst case. Retiring with Lieutenant General pay would have been the honorable course instead of following foolish orders and with the utter failure of the withdrawal and the loss of the Marines, Sailor, and civilians an absolute requisite to maintain his honor as events transpired. General McKenzie you can try and punt the blame now that you are no longer in active service to the United States but on the face of it, your command failed and any honorable man would have fallen on his sword, metaphorically speaking, with the utter failure at Kabul’s Airport two years ago.

I learned recently that the Veterinarian in Chief head of Pfizer is the highest paid pharmaceutical executive in the world. Hey Doc! Why don’t you give up some of your money to the victims of your companies experiments? Oh no, I forgot, you ae evidently a sociopath and your actions clearly classify you as a anti human globalist with homicidal intent. You giving up any of your money will never happen, who am I kidding?

I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format.

I am reading the California governor wants to spend $4.5 million for undocumented aliens in the tarnished state. This is ostensibly to aid the workers in labor investigations. In all actuality it is for the attorneys that represent them and knowing the corruption and cost of attorneys this money will not last long. Better to spend the money repaving a section of pot holed road in the Sierra Nevada’s or elsewhere destroyed by this last winter’s storms. Will that happen? No, Gavin Newsom has a campaign to finance after all.

ESPN is asking for the sports leagues to invest in the company that is failing. Maybe ESPN, you should report on sports and not politics and you might see your ratings rise. Not only that but eliminate some of the commercial breaks and get rid of the self-aggrandizing, racist Stephen Smith. He is nothing but poison and is one of the reasons I no longer watch your network.

Hmm, New York state has a $36 billion shortfall due to “taxpayers fleeing”. Geez, I wonder why they are fleeing.

I read a report in which Utah Representative Jason Chaffetz called on House Speaker McCarthy and Senator McConnell to press for action on the Biden family’s business dealings. Congressman Chaffetz I do not believe either one of them will push the matter because Senator McConnell and his family are just a guilty and do not want to shine light on the practices of the uni-party. I am not sure about Speaker McCarthy but his actions or lack thereof certainly indicate that he is hamstrung for some reason.

Europe seems to be on fire this week and summer as Rhodes is being evacuated and Palermo’s airport on Sicily has been closed. My cynicism is on high alert as mysterious fires have developed, like those is Canada and the US West in previous years and this year.

Yellow Freight purportedly maybe filing for bankruptcy next week. Hmm, interesting I wonder what is behind their business failure?

I think Senators Durbin and Whitehouse should be brought up for impeachment or expulsion from the Senate under High Crimes and Misdemeanors. What gives them the right to target private citizens and conservative Supreme Court Justices’ communications? This smacks of a willful infringement of Constitutional Rights.

I am watching the fallout of Britain’s Nigel Farage’s debanking as the second CEO of a bank that he was debanked from has been fired-cum-resigned. What I find interesting, as well, is that the UK Government is the majority shareholder of NatWest one of the banks that delisted Nigel Farage.

The Hunter Biden saga continues and the courts are now revealing what the alternate media has said all along. Information that has been and is still suppressed by the old media and the big tech platforms going back to the last Presidential election. What I must wonder is why now?

Fox is forcing Jason Aldean to remove BLM riot footage from his video. Yet more proof, in a long list, of why I no longer trust or watch Fox News going back to 2020.

Speaking of Senators, Sen. Tuberville is pushing the Senate to seriously review the promotion of each General and Flag officer above the rank of O-7. This means he is tasking the Senate to review the second star and above for each officer selected by the DOD which is one of the jobs of the Senate. A serious review instead of rubber stamping the nominations. After the debacle of Afghanistan, the forced COVID bio warfare injections on our service members, and the military’s focus on transgenderism etc. I think it is high time more attention be paid to these promotions. The flag and general officer corps has failed this nation and the service members who serve under them and they need to be held accountable.

Juneteenth!? OK, I get there is good reason to celebrate and honor the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation as slavery wrong in so many ways. It is a stain on American history that we should never forget or try to sweep under the rug, so to speak. It is when we try to pretend that something does not exist or has never happened that the ugly part of humanity can rear its ugly head again. It seems that it already is in the guise of human trafficking, the sex trade, and child labor being imported through our southern border with near impunity. Is it good to honor the freeing of the African slaves in the United States? Sure, but do we need another holiday for the government working class to honor this day?

I am waking up after more than a month and a half of working on a project and the subsequent catching up required on my other projects. Needless to say, the sun is just about at its most northern arc across the sky and the days are the longest they will be for the year as a result.

One thing that I have noticed is the weather is cooler this year and the light does seem dimmer. I have lived in the area where I am for most of my life and it just seems a little odd that the sky seems to always have a dusty or light smokey quality. Perhaps it is because I am downwind from the cesspool known as California?

President Trump has been indicted on what appear to be erroneous Federal charges that one of the Clinton was cleared of at the Supreme Court level. This at the same time news is starting to leak that Joe Biden took a $10 million bribe. Geez, do you think this is coincidental? Spin spin spin, if one were to pay attention too closely to the news cycle they could feel as if they were in a laundry machine set for high spin.

It finally has come to my town. A drag queen story hour has been held at one of my local libraries and one is scheduled to be held at two of the other libraries in the greater community. Why is this happening? What is the agenda of these people?

It appears that Kevin McCarthy’s Congress has caved yet again to the Democrats and agreed to raise the debt ceiling yet again. What disturbs me is the bill also includes somewhere in the neighborhood of $800-900 billion for Ukraine. It is so obvious that even Republicans are in on the fleecing of America in the name of Ukraine.

Let me state as I have probably not stated before that I consider the child of mine who died more than a year and a half ago to be a victim of COVID. A victim not of the disease itself but a victim or the ridiculous over reaction and societal controls put in place because of this man made disease. My child did not get to experience a normal high school graduation, did not get to attend college in person, and then was coerced into taking the experimental mRNA injection which happened to be made by Pfizer by the government and her employer, Delta Airlines.

I have filed a claim with the CICP and have heard nothing after more than six months yet Congress has managed to send another more than $800 – $900 billion to Ukraine? Is it me or has anyone else concluded that there is way too much corruption on both sides of the aisle in D.C.? I know I know, this is a rhetorical question.

How come there has never been a national review and reconciliation around COVID and government’s response to COVID? Isn’t convenient that the politicians and media have just moved on as if nothing happened and they experiment with whatever crisis they next can peddle to the American people.

Elon Musk is cozying up to the CCP this past week in China. Big surprise considering he has made his billions cozying up to government officials in the United States too.

The World Health Organization has chosen North Korea to head up its new Executive Board. Wait! What? Huh? Hey Congress, I have a great way to reduce spending and that is to withdraw all US Funding from the WHO.

Monday morning and Tucker Carlson and Bob Lemon have both lost their jobs with their respective networks. Is this a coordinated action between two supposedly independent media organizations? It sure seems suspicious considering they are about as far apart from center as are their former employees, supposedly. Call me cynical but I must wonder if there is another power behind the curtain pulling the levers?

Speaking of FOX and Tucker Carlson no longer being with the network I see reports of Fox’s stock dropping sharply and many people unsubscribing from FOX Nation. Is this yet another example of leftist politics driving business decisions, for instance Anheuser Busch’s Bud Light? I just learned that Arnon Mishkin had been rehired by FOX News to cover the 2022 and 2024 elections. I will never forget the moment when Chris Stirewalt insisted that Arizona was going against Trump when Florida had still not been called in the 2020 Presidential Election evidently, it seems, at the direction of Mr. Mishkin.

Mr. Murdoch, I suspected all along that you were very uneasy with populism and especially original American values. I understand this considering that you were raised and become wealthy in a country still under the overt rule of Britain’s Crown. I have always suspected that Tucker Carlson made you and your fellow internationalists in and out of your company quite uneasy but I respected that you supported your stockholders and their investments. I know, however, know that you will sell yourself for political reasons and that Mr. Carlson’s show was the last program on Fox News that I watched. I only thank God that I am not a stockholder in your company because you do not have their best interests at heart. You have lost half of the United States with either your decision to let Mr. Carlson go or creating an environment that he had no choice but to leave Fox News.

The ideological war in the United States is truly escalating when large corporations no longer hold the best interest of their stockholders as a priority over ingratiating themselves with ideologues. The US broadcast media is now being guided by one overarching ideology and it is that of war with Russia and war with China while one of their biggest advertising revenue streams is Big Pharma.

The US is evacuating all embassy staff from Sudan and at the same time providing no readily visible alternative or communications to other US citizens living in Sudan. It seems eerily familiar and reminiscent of the pullout from Afghanistan. Is there any competent people at the helm in the State Department?

Susan Rice has announced her resignation from the Biden Administration. Of course, the spin is she only agreed to two years and is going to spend more time with her family. From what I understand Susan Rice is one of the vicious power hungry leftists in the Obama, pardon me, Biden Administration. I wonder what really is happening and where she is headed? I suppose time will tell.

One time is a random act, two times is a coincidence and three times is enemy action goes the saying. It is no longer a coincidence and yet so few appear to realize or accept the fact that the culture war in the United States is being lost to those who would rather be paid by Chinese Communist Party Sympathizers or at worst agents, leftists, and or globalists.

I like many others out there I am sure suddenly received another barrage of texts soliciting money for President Trump on the heels of his arraignment. An arraignment that is a complete sham and corruption of justice and I would say is a joke if it were not such a real thing. I am choosing, however, to remain neutral in this because I still have not heard President Trump take any responsibility for the sham COVID vaccine, the botched shutdowns, the failure to fire Anthony Fauci and others like him, taking money from Pfizer etc. I am sorry Mr. Trump but as President of the United States of America one has to hold themselves to a higher standard than even the founder of a billion dollar company.

A report is out in Washington D.C. about the botched pull out from Afghanistan. I will say, up front, that I did not read it but I have heard nothing coming out about why the Generals in charge of US Central Command and of the pull out were allowed to retire at his current rank in the case of the Central Commander’s case and given another star in the latter’s case. Until I hear a critical explanation of this it is nothing more than a puff peace designed to mollify the media and on this Good Friday wash their hands of responsibility for the sacrifice of Marines, a Sailor and countless others due to the failure of the White House, senior Department of Defense leaders, and senior State Department officials. They disgraced their oaths to the Constitution, the American people, and to themselves.

Speaking of Pfizer, they sure have a lot of money. I was watching a baseball game and there must have been at least two or three advertisements touting the benefits of the COVID treatment drug that only Pfizer has. This while they shutdown others for touting the benefits of Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine and other natural yet low profit margin treatments for the manufactured virus. Talk about modern day Pharisees, Sadducees and hypocrites.

Joe Biden is going to Ireland to meet with his fellow socialists and of course they must raise the threat level to justify the increased police presence for the tough talking chicken shit bully empty suit President of the United States with way too much power. The thug and grafter in chief of what was once the shining beacon on the hill of the free world. Talk about hypocrites.

I thought about Hunter Biden being flushed out of the US Navy because he failed a drug test and I have to wonder if it was all a deliberate ruse to provide a cover story for him. I say this because he seems to always dodge whatever legal bullet is hurled his way, it allows him the street credibility to meet with Ukrainian and Chinese thugs and seems to be play right out of a Hollywood style CIA recruiting plot. Not only that we all have suspicions of the CIA, FBI, and other three letter agencies helping to rig the elections and what a great story line this would make to have the President selects son being an undercover CIA agent. Who knows perhaps fact is not too far from fiction and if I were the Chinese, Ukrainians or Russians I would certainly consider this a potential reality. After all it seems Hollywood has a quite a lot of influence on this administration and within the deep state.

I am sickened to see the Tennessee slaughter in a Christian High School allegedly perpetrated by a young woman undergoing a transgender change and hopped up on who knows what pharmaceutical drugs to facilitate the change. I, for one, know a woman who “transitioned” and struggled with the sudden change in elevated testosterone having never experienced adolescence and the anger associated with it. Usually, however, society has its ways of directing and channeling young pubescent males to learn how to control these violent urges via sports and other activities. Yet another example of the crimes against humanity being perpetrated by the pharmaceutical industry on a daily basis. Now anti-gun transactivists are storming the Tennessee State Capitol after a trans person committed a gun crime. Wait, what, huh? My prayers go out to the victims and their families.

President Trump has been indicted on who knows what charges by a blatantly political hack of a District Attorney in New York City and I am supposed to get riled up by this? Says who? The media who benefit from the ratings spike that this will provide? The CIA, FBI, DHS, and whatever other three letter agency that would love nothing more than to see me protest so they can get more unconstitutional laws through Congress that infringe upon my God given rights? Is what is being done to Donald Trump right? Absolutely not. But what should we expect from the Progressive, Communist, Marxist, Trotskyites who want nothing more than to destroy all that is good and life affirming and that reminds them how demented and worthless that they are. God bless those who seek to destroy life and the greatness of this country.

On top of this Nancy Pelosi has tweeted, “…No one is above the law, and everyone has the right to trial to prove innocence…” regarding President Trump. If this statement does not stop one dead in their tracks, then they should not be allowed to call themselves citizens of the United States of America nor be allowed to vote. Representative Pelosi what happened to a person being innocent until being proved guilty. The burden of proving guilt is on the accuser not the accused. You, Mrs. Pelosi are a true enemy of the state if you believe this statement. A statement most likely Tweeted by one of your ignorant or malicious staffers twits.

The bird flu is coming, the bird flu is coming or rather the sky falling, the sky falling, the sky is falling or perhaps the little boys (and girls) are crying that the wolf is coming? What a bunch of bulls…, pardon me, who knows what this is a bunch of? Whatever it is I can say that it stinks. Just like clockwork when the weather begins to change and we men and women begin to emerge from our winters and start to think about outdoor activities in which we work and attend large events together to celebrate the life giving power of the sun here in the northern hemisphere the peddlers of fear and death seem to be concocting and implementing their weapons. Oh yes, and by the way, there is a Marburg Virus outbreak evidently in Africa now too.

We have the Trump indictment, the Tennessee shooting and bird flu catching most of our attention while a report came out that there are far more banks in serious trouble than originally reported. Far more banks in trouble thanks to the efforts of the Federal Reserve and the “Too Big to Fail Banks” that make up the Federal Reserve it seems to an outside colluding to consolidate their power and push small regional banks out of business. It is like the scene in “It’s a Wonderful Life” when Mr. Potter capitalizes on the fear and tries to buy out the Bailey’s Savings and Loan’s assets and accounts for pennies on the dollar.

In my lifetime I have seen the media consolidate into a few sources, the federal government’s power over my daily life increase by magnitudes of order and now the banking industry is consolidating. Geez, considering how much my standard of living and freedom have decreased over the recent decades I can only imagine how helpful the mega banks will be.

For some reason I have “Ramblin’ Man” performed by the Allman Brothers looping through my head today. In particular it is the chorus of the song that is on a loop and the lyrics go, “Lord, I was born a ramblin’ man, trying to make a livin’ and doin’ the best I can, And when it’s time for leavin’, I hope you’ll understand That I was born a ramblin’ man”. It is times like this that I must wonder what my subconscious is trying to tell me about all the nonsense going on in the world.
