Random Musings on Current Events 10.7.22

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 lines in an increasingly blue state.

 I see that Anthony Fauci and his wife’s net worth increased $5 million during the “Wuhan Virus (COVID) Pandemic” from offshore nonprofit organizations. What? Wait a minute? This in addition that he, a long tenured Public Official, has a net worth of over $12 million dollars? An unelected official with the power to shut economies down! How did this happen?

It seems that there are protests all over Iran and the Biden administration will not even acknowledge or express support for protesters against a totalitarian repressive regime. Instead, the administration wants to be part of a deal that sends hundreds of millions if not a billion dollars to this repressive regime. What does this say about the Biden Administration? I understand this is a rhetorical question but who really is in charge of the Biden Administration? It appears to be the Shi’a operatives in the administration and who have a firm grasp of the administration want their own form of totalitarian regime in the United States. Otherwise, they would be in support of the protesters and not be repressing free speech, freedom of assembly, and not be supportive of censorship in the United States.

UK born Peter Daszak’s Ecohealth Alliance, a non-profit non-governmental organization, received a $3 million grant to do research in Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos that will go through 2027?!?! You have got to be kidding me!!! This guy and those that fund him appear to be responsible for the Wuhan (COVID) Virus disaster and Anthony Fauci is giving them more money! Why are these experiments being conducted in three of the world’s poorest countries? Would it be because these countries are so poor that the allure of money blinds them or perhaps it is because they have been deceived to the realities of what these experiments could lead to? I cannot help but think that if something looks like a dog, wags its tail like a dog, and barks like a dog it probably is a dog.

California Governor Newsom is promising $1050 stimulus checks to the residents of California to minimize the effects of inflation. I do not know what is more troubling, that California residents believe there is no downside to receiving these checks or that Governor Newsom is using American Rescue Plan Act money either directly or indirectly as a slush fund to buy votes in the coming election. Even more troubling is that opposition politicians and media inside and outside the Golden State are not calling the use of the American Rescue Plan Act funds in this matter for what it is, a slush fund.

Herschel Walker is being accused of action by an anonymous source on the eve of an election in which he has a legitimate chance to win. I don’t know Herschel Walker other than that he was a great football player and yes, I know football players live a far different lifestyle than I do. Also, that this lifestyle can be one that catering to young men and their appetites. Is it a good lifestyle, necessarily? No, and it is within the realm of possibility that he committed these acts or has been close to others who lived this lifestyle. However, there is no proof, the accuser will not face him, and this is such an overused tactic of the Democrat Left, the most recent being Brett Kavanaugh, that I find it hard to believe.

State Farm Insurance is airing commercials featuring Patrick Mahomes this year and not Aaron Rogers during National Football League games being broadcast. Something tells me Aaron Rogers is no longer being asked to be in commercials because of his refusal to take the experimental mRNA jab and more importantly that he has taken a public stance in this matter. It is moments like this that I am glad to no longer use State Farm Insurance as my insurance carrier. I certainly will not be taking them off the list of companies who do not deserve my business any time soon.

God bless America and all of 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.

Vladimir Putin has declared that he is mobilizing reserve forces in Russia and reiterated his statement that he will use nuclear weapons if he feels it necessary to protect Mother Russia. Well, to me there is nothing new in this statement. What is surprising to me is the feigned shock being displayed by our so called incompetent leaders in this country and the west.

Queen Elizabeth II has been eulogized and interned this week and for me as well as many others she will always be known as The Queen despite my owing nor professing any allegiance to her nor will I to King Charles III. I will simply call him King Charles or Charles Windsor. I do so not out of respect nor disrespect but rather, probably, out of ease of communication, efficiency and my ambivalence to the notion of aristocracy. Perhaps I should not be quite so ambivalent because there is a class of people in the US and world who still consider themselves to be aristocratic and above the law. This would be the class of people who are the so called leaders in government, business, and media who tell me directly and through their controlled surrogates that I am a worthless piece of dung while they jet around the world on their jets, yachts and limousines. I would imagine that they will have plenty of food and be warm this winter. After all this is attitude of efficiency, ease, and ambivalence is their attitude toward me which probably is giving them too much credit if I think twice about it.

I watched replays of the procession from Westminster Castle to Westminster Cathedral and from the cathedral to Windsor Castle’s St. George Cathedral and took note of Harry and his not being allowed to be in uniform and as well his Uncle Prince despite each of them having been in combat. It is a strange world and I would trust Harry more than I would William despite knowing and understanding why he did not serve his time in combat. Then again, I suppose Charles sees the writing on the wall and knows that he needs to trim up the family because the business will be under attack in the next many months if not years.

Speaking of which, the other day someone asked me if I think the monarchy is a good thing and should survive the death of Queen Elizabeth II? My response was a bit muddled and at times incoherent but nevertheless I did manage a bit of an extemporaneous reply. I acknowledged that the English Bill of Rights from which the US Bill of Rights was derived was developed to curb the power of the monarchy and for that reason I believe everyone should be wary of someone or one institution or cabal of institutions developing absolute power. For this reason, I am wary of the monarchy and at the same time I am aware of the growing power of Big Tech and the International Elites and how we should fight as if our lives depended upon the rights guaranteed us in the Bill of Rights and our Constitution as if our lives depended upon them. Because quite frankly, they do.

On the other hand, Queen Elizabeth II and her reign were a relatively benign reign and she was not too interested in amassing power for herself but in turn provided a sense of stability, a sense of history, and a sense of formality midst a world that seems to be intent on destroying or forgetting. Again, I have mixed emotions of this and wonder why we as humans are drawn to this, if it is necessary, and at the same feel a certain wonderment about it. It seems almost hypnotic and yet comforting at the same time.

The Clinton Global Initiative is back for the first time 2016. What is going on here? I wonder why the Clinton’s are ramping up their money laundering machine yet again? It seems there will be a host of celebrities in attendance as well. Celebrities that I will no longer watch, listen to, and especially purchase anything of again. Yes, I am speaking especially to you Bono.

I will say one good thing that has come out of The Woman King’s release this past weekend is how much uproar within the left there is about the Dahomey tribe’s involvement in the slave trade. As for the movie I will not pay nor will I take the time to watch it ever. So much of the unoriginal drivel being pumped out of Hollywood is woke garbage based not on fact but on ideology. I watched the latest Lord of the Rings spin off and the warrior leaders are women and women of color. I am sorry but in combat, and there are a few exceptions to the rule, women, in general, are not going to last too long no matter what Hollywood says. I would imagine the real Woman King always had a guard of male warriors around her.

It provides me a sense of relief, albeit temporary, to see that the Firth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the Texas bill allowing users to sue social media platforms if one feels their accounts have been wrongfully suspended or censored. Of course, I would assume this will go to the Supreme Court. What is disturbing is the level of corruption in Congress that has allowed this censorship to happen in the first place. Again, I call for the removal of Section 530 protections! However, since Congress seems incapable of doing so it appears Texas will.

I think Senator Graham is in the same camp as Senator McConnell and wants to work in the minority in Congress. After all, why would he make abortion a federal issue when it already has been settled by the Supreme Court that put the decision regarding abortion with states? Go home you neoconservative lap dog and keep your mouth shut until after the election for goodness sakes.

President Biden is addressed the UN General Assembly and all I heard was blah blah blah. He was either hooped up on drugs or they have the mean and serious looking double delivering the speech. Blah blah blah, Ukraine this, Russia that, the right to freedom of navigation and blah blah blah. How does any of this help me fill my vehicles gas tank up or have enough money for food? Blah blah blah and watch your step on the way out.

The illegal immigrants sent to Martha’s Vineyard are booted after one day. Hypocrisy on full display. What is good for you does not apply to me so says the Democrat elites.

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 learned something about quantum computing and the meaning about the language used when discussing quantum computing. Specifically, a qubit is a basic unit of quantum information used by quantum computers. Whereas traditional processors use regular bits, which can be turned on or off to create binary code. Qubits, however, can be turned on, off, or both on and off simultaneously in a phenomenon known as superposition. I see why this is now the topic of a race between China, US Big Tech and others. I am sure because this is not a linear increase in computing power but rather a magnitude of order change in the ability to crunch data.

A group known as the New Civil Liberties Alliance has filed a lawsuit in the US District Court for the Western District of Louisiana stating, “Public statements, emails, and recent publicly released documents establish that the President of the United States and other senior officials in the Biden Administration violated the First Amendment by directing social-media companies to censor viewpoints that conflict with the government’s messaging on Covid-19.”  For me this is an exciting development and long overdue. It is one thing for Big Tech to censor free speech but if they are doing it at the behest of those in government it is wrong on so many levels and it is indeed unconstitutional no matter what the subject matter is. Of course, is Zuckerberg and others in big tech merely throwing this out now because their end game is the elimination of government as we know it now? It would not surprise me because they really do not want to answer to anyone and it appears they consider themselves above the law.

Does anyone else believe for a New York second that the only reason Nancy Pelosi, Gavin Newsom and others are against the American Data Privacy and Protection Act solely for altruistic reasons? After all a large data holder is defined as generating $250 million in revenue and processing covered data of 5 million individuals. This immediately includes Amazon, Facebook, Google, and Twitter for starters and no doubt they are large campaign contributors and employers in California, Utah, and other states. They are not fooling me.

Speaking of the growing technocracy which appears to be in lock step with global elites I learned that Apple will be able to market their latest iPhone in Russia. So, Europe is going to freeze this winter, to travel to Russia, one must go through Turkey or the Middle East and yet Apple can sell their newest phone in Russia? Tell me who really is in charge here?

I am seeing the increased use of crowds behind President Biden and his public addresses similar to what President Trump pioneered. Typical behavior from the political leech class that has very little if any imagination. Too bad President Trump’s team could not have copyrighted the use of crowds behind him.

It will be interesting to see how Nevada’s governor, essentially a man granted dictatorial powers by the Democratic supermajority in Nevada’s legislature due to the COVID “emergency”, will respond to the murder of a reporter critical to one of his appointees. A man who has been charged with the murder of the appointee.

I just read a quote from James Madison and it goes, “A standing military force, with an overgrown Executive will not long be safe companions to liberty.”

Rest in Peace Bernard Shaw, Semper Fi, and my condolences to your family and friends.

Lastly, my condolences and prayers go out to the Windsor family and rest in peace Queen Elizabeth.

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 learned some new terms today and these are Milankovic Cycles and anthropogenic CO2 to describe, respectively, the long term changes in the tilt of the earth’s axis and manmade sources of CO2. It seems the Milankovic Cycles have a frequency of about 41,000 years and can explain the comings and goings of ice ages. Am I to believe that what man has put into the atmosphere in the last 100 years compares with the tilting of the earth’s axis when it comes to changes in the environment? 100 years is 2/10 of 1% of the time for one Milankovic Cycle. I am supposed to believe there is an environmental crisis based on this information? I do not think so.

It seems that Americans for Limited Government conducted an internal poll asking its supporters and subscribers who they would be least likely and most likely to vote for President in 2024. Not surprisingly, and refreshing to know, that I am not alone the results have Liz Cheney followed by Mitt Romney as those they would be least likely to vote for. President Trump followed by Governor DeSantis are those who they would definitely vote for.

Oh my goodness! The FBI is coming to counties and harvesting individual concealed carry permit information as reported in Missouri. Fortunately, for the citizens of Missouri, their Attorney General, Eric Schmitt, is fighting this gross overreach and in my opinion abuse of power by the FBI. I say stay out of my business you bloated, power hungry, and corrupt organization. What frightens me is I can easily guess that the Attorney General of my state, I would imagine a Pelosi Democrat, will do nothing to prevent this from happening.

Democratic congressional candidate Christina Bohannan is boasting that she worked as an environmental engineer when, in fact, she was an engineer intern and worked for the Department of Environmental Protection in Florida. So, to educate those who are not aware of the title Engineer and how it pertains to the Engineering profession, one cannot claim to be an Engineer without obtaining the title Professional Engineer. To obtain this license, it requires 8 years of experience of which 4 to 6 years can be offset by years of education in most jurisdictions depending upon whether a bachelors or master’s degree in engineering is obtained. So, in Ms. Bohannan’s case, she would have her four years of school (intern years do not count as experience) and would need another four years of experience to use the title of Engineer. Granted she did obtain the title Engineering Intern which she can use, however, it must specifically be spelled out as Engineering Intern. I can say from my experience the four years of experience truly makes a difference especially if the experience is obtained in the private sector. Of course, she is a professor at the University of Iowa’s law school which explains her hypocrisy and manipulation of language.

Citi Group is predicting 18% inflation in the UK! I should be happy that it is so much lower in the US but I am not. After all, anyone with any wits knows this is closer to the reality in the US as well.

The local Gannettoid in my hometown just had a headline that reads, “How the pandemic created a seismic shift in (state’s) election system.” Yes, it did create a shift. A shift in which the Democratic super majority in the Legislature, late on a Friday evening while meeting online during the Wuhan Virus fraud, passed emergency mail in balloting. This same legislature subsequently made permanent the rule changes at their next regularly scheduled convening. Of course, the Pelosi machine backed governor of my state signed the bill making mail in balloting permanent. I suppose that has been a seismic shift. A shift that, in my opinion, has made it much more difficult to ever see a serious Republican contender again. It seems that California has taken one step closer to turning my state into a third world petty one party oligarchy as has happened to California.

I sure wish I had not paid off my student loans, albeit I paid them off early and more than twenty years ago, because I could sure use some debt relief or a $10,000 payoff better yet. I have written in the past how the only new office buildings being built where I live are at the local university. The university has purchased entire blocks around its perimeter and has been expanding into these blocks for years. How is it that while the economy is faltering the University is expanding? How does the J. Biden administration have the authority constitutionally to forgive these loans? Why have tuition rates continued to outpace inflation in the last decades and yet incomes have not? Is it, perhaps, because most of the institutions of higher learning in our country are nothing but an industry to bilk people and the taxpayer out of money while providing cover to enemies of our Constitutional Republic? What value and values are most of these institutions really providing? Once again, more questions than answers but the one fact that remains is that there is something seriously wrong with what is happening in these “institutions of higher learning”.

Dr. Fauci may be retiring but I will never forget the appearance of fraud, violations of US Federal Law and violations of the Nuremberg Codes (international crimes) that appear to swirl around him. Whether he is purely a figure head, or not, he is the embodiment of all that is wrong around COVID. It is my belief that he and his cohorts need to be investigated under the full extent of the law both nationally and internationally. Do I believe it will happen? No, he probably has the same lawyers that Paul Pelosi has.

It looks like the Shi’a in the Obama, I mean Biden, administration are firmly in control and ready to flex their power even more with the Iran Deal being pushed through. Is it any wonder why homosexuality and child rape normalization are being pushed? Isn’t this business as usual in states and regions of the world where Sharia and or Islamic Law is the law of the land? Sometimes I feel that the ancient war between Greece and Persia is still being waged.

 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.

The Sowing of Chaos

I talked with my spouse and some of her family members this past weekend and found myself a bit resigned to what they were saying. I think what I struggled with is they seem really good at regurgitating what they have been told by whatever media source it is that they are listening to. One, obviously, was listening to a lot of Fox News, another to some alternative news sites and others who obviously were listening to other legacy news sources. I think what led to my sense of feeling resigned is how unoriginal their thinking and reasoning processes were and the lack of solutions to the problems they are being fed by the propaganda press. I asked them to take their listening and mental processing a step further, but I am not sure they heard me. A step further than just being able to regurgitate what is being told to them, to think about what the news means to them, at the same time to ask themselves if what is being reported important to them and why might the media claim it to be important? Again, I am not sure if they heard me, but it certainly helped me to clarify my thinking and thought processes.

For example, the other morning, sitting at the breakfast table, my spouse and I had a conversation about the transgender movement and who is doing what and what is being said by whom, according to our reading, listening, and watching. I was able to articulate, perhaps for the first time, in our conversation that this is all noise to me. It is noise that appears to be meant to distract me from something. What specifically that something is I do not know. However, when someone tries to tell me that a man can call himself a woman and compete against women despite still having a viable penis, testicles and who still produces testosterone at levels that a man produces testosterone is a woman, I must wonder. In fact, if this person has not had a change in sex before puberty they would still be at an advantage, in the case of a male transitioning to female, because their musculature and bone structures would have developed as a male. Sure, they could take drugs to reduce the amount of testosterone in their systems at that time, but they still would have the foundational advantage of a male in a competitive female sports competition. So much for Title IX and woman’s rights and another example of how the left will turn on their own when it no longer suits their goals.

As one can see, just in this small diatribe of mine, I have already wasted my readers and my time reading and writing a paragraph on a subject that should not even be an issue. Outside of the rare instance in which a person is born with hermaphrodite like sex organs this whole transgender movement is a ruse. A woman is born with female reproductive organs, a male is born with male reproductive organs, and each has their own sets and ratios of hormones being created within their bodies. Sure, some will have different ratios that place them outside the norm of their sex (i.e., some women may produce more testosterone relative to estrogen than the average female and likewise some men may produce less testosterone relative to estrogen than the average male) but that does not change the fact that they are the sex that they are born with for the vast majority of people. This is a non-issue that is being made into an issue and for what reason?

So, back to the conversation and the distractions being peddled by the propaganda media complex and government, I come back to the fundamental question of, “why?” Why are these distractions being peddled and I consider the question of sex identity to be one of many distractions. What I see in the immediate future is the release of the Supreme Court decision regarding Roe v. Wade and a seeming bipartisan agreement regarding gun control which I think is a bunch of hooey considering current laws are not being enforced but, for now, I will leave that as a subject for another conversation. What I see is midterm elections and the chess board being set. As far as I am concerned right now the news cycle, if you want to call it news since it really should be called the propaganda cycle, is gearing up for the midterms because there is a ton of money to be made in advertising and pushing the agendas of the corporate globalist leftist elites.

Refining my line of questioning I ask myself, “OK, why are these stories being pushed at this time knowing the midterm elections are just around the corner and only mere months away?” Further questions arise in my mind when framing the question this way such as, why has there been an uptick in “mass shootings” in the last couple of months that are now causing Congress to come up with “bipartisan” gun control legislation? Why has a George Soros backed company bought several Spanish language media outlets in the past week? Why is the uproar already building over the Supreme Court’s release of its Roe V Wade challenge? Summing all these questions I would say the common denominator is there seems to be an uptick in chaos that is purposely being stoked and I must, again, ask myself, “why?”

My thoughts are starting to coalesce around the idea of chaos and the loss of an objective application of the law. The sex identity movement is yet another movement designed to confuse language and with the confusion of language it makes it easier for the autocrats (bullies) in this world to subjectively lash out with impunity against all who do not agree with they say. It does matter if what is being said refutes logically what the bullies are saying it only matters that you agree with what the bullies are saying and this is totalitarian in nature. With the gun laws being proposed does anyone really believe they will help stop these seemingly random acts of violence? No, it only will give more power to thugs and bullies who care not what the law says. Besides with the trust in the institutions of the country already flagging the application of law will become even more subjective and whoever has the biggest club, so to speak, will be the final arbiter of law.

In addition, reading alternative non legacy news sources, I have learned that the Saudis, Russians, Indians and Chinese have been talking about trading Saudi oil using non US Dollars as the medium of exchange. This coupled with the fact that the Europeans are still purchasing Russian oil and natural gas with Rubles using cutouts it is obvious that the days of the US Dollar being the world’s Reserve Currency are numbered. Paraphrasing what I have learned from Mr. Dalio in his book, “The Changing World Order” once a Reserve Currency becomes a fiat currency history has shown it is the beginning of the end for that currency. It has now been fifty years since the US Dollar became a truly fiat currency, thanks to a Republican President and Democrat Congress, and quite frankly it appears that the gas tank supporting the US Dollar as the worlds reserve currency is running out of Saudi oil which is what has supported the dollar thanks to Breton Woods. Couple this with the reluctance of the ruling elites in the US to “face the music”, for instance, not allowing a true free market clean out of the economy after the 2008 financial crisis, the economy has hobbled along with a deadly government backed cancer being artificially kept alive and being allowed to metastasize. It has been kept alive only to benefit corrupt government politicians, corrupt businessmen with government connections and especially a corrupt and bloated banking industry. I know with the stripping of reserve currency status for the US Dollar the US economy is in for very difficult times and historically these difficult times include civil unrest against the current ruling powers in a country. Lastly, unlike most Americans who believe or accept the drivel being peddled by the corrupt government media propagandists, I have no illusions that the Russians, Indians, Saudis and Chinese are not buying what is being sold.

The conclusion that I have come up with is that chaos is being sowed so that the Constitutional Rights of Americans can be taken away from the general citizenry. From my perspective a rapid increase in the iterative cycle of the autocratic seizing of citizens’ rights began with the passing of the Patriot Act, then the autocratic use of executive authority of emergency powers in the name of the COVID scam, and now, gun control in the name of “out of control gun violence”. What I am suspecting is this grab for autocratic dictatorial power by the globalist elites in the United States is because, like it or not, the US Dollar is losing its reserve currency status.  Therefore, there is economic hardship and quite frankly sever economic hardship looming on the horizon and the powered elites in the US beholden to the International Socialist Globalist movement know this. It seems that many events are being engineered to instill fear on the one hand so that the other hand can pass laws that erode the fundamental rights guaranteed by the US Constitution. One of the fundamental arguments for the creation of the Second Amendment was that periodically the rank and file citizenry must rise and throw out any rulers who have become too enamored with and or addicted to the power of their offices. I think the powered elites, inside and outside of government, are afraid of this potential scenario looming on the horizon. They are afraid that when the rank and file of the United States citizenry wake up as their standards of living erode much faster than they have over the past twenty years there will be great social unrest.

God bless America and God bless the world.

Random Musings on Current Events 6.10.22

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. Additionally, I know, and it has been proven that Twitter and Facebook would censor what I have to say so I will say what I feel the need to say in this medium. However, with Elon Musk purchasing Twitter perhaps I will have to take Twitter out of my introduction but not just yet. Time will tell I suppose and for that reason I will not remove Twitter just yet from my Random Musings On Current Events introductory paragraph.

Why is an attempt on the life of a Supreme Court Justice not being decried from every corner of the land? Why is it that none of the liberal media outlets made this their top headline? Who really are the violent ones in our society? Congressional Democrats block bill to provide Supreme Court Justices additional security yet at the same time want to limit my ability to protect myself? Does anyone else see a pattern here? A pattern of subjective application of logic and law. A subjective application in which chaos, is being fomented and allowed to flourish.

I cannot believe that I am paying more than $5.50 (now it is $5.70 since I wrote the initial draft four days ago) per gallon for low grade gasoline and now I am also having to increase my food budget more than $200/month! This is happening while the Congressional January 6th committee hearings are happening. Hey Congress and media! Do you think I give a rip about this committee and its televised broadcast with commercials? No, I will be too busy working extra hours to make ends meet thanks to you! Besides it really is just a bone being thrown to the media by Congress to boost some ratings. Nothing substantial will come out of the Kabuki Theater show being put on because there is nothing to it. If something does come out of it it will just be further proof of how corrupt the ruling elites, Democrats and RINO Republicans, truly are.

Another item closer to home is my local newspaper/media outlet that happens to be a Gannet owned rag and an article on their website yesterday. The headline mentioned that Democrats are turning out more early voters that the GOP in the county that I live in. I read the article and there is much speculation and reasoning as to why this is the case but I will not go into detail. However, call me cynical, I cannot help but think what a bunch of bull or how meaningless all the debate can be. My state’s Legislature used COVID to pass an initial mail in ballot law and then made it permanent in the most recent Democratic majority legislature. I cannot help but wonder if we will ever see a Republican win in this state again considering that we are neighbors of the one party Peoples Republic of California and the power hungry elite that controls the Golden State. This on top of the rumors that Speaker Pelosi and her minion, Governor Gavin Newsom, have funneled large quantities of campaign money to the Democratic coffers of my state’s Governor and other Democratic candidates.

What I would have considered, at one time, my two favorite basketball teams are playing for the Nike Basketball Association’s (NBA’s) championship, and I will not watch a game. The NBA’s self-congratulatory statement of feigned pious self-appreciation explaining how the NBA has lost hundreds of millions of dollars due to being shut out of the Chinese market after the former Houston Rocket General Manager Daryl Morey’s “Fight for freedom, stand for Hong Kong” Tweet does not elicit one tear from me. Mr. Silver, you and your advertisers do not deserve my attention let along my financial support. I have been to Hong Kong and what was once a free, healthy and vibrant city is no more. There are more important things in life than a sport created by Naismith to keep his students occupied during the cold Massachusetts winters. You may want to explain that to your boss, Mr. Knight, as well explain that my Constitutional Freedoms far outweigh any entertainment product that you offer. I only wish that Mr. Morey had stood his ground and not apologized. After all, despite his groveling, he still lost his job.

President Biden said, “enough is enough” regarding gun violence in this country. I agree Mr. President, when will you support the right for all law abiding citizens to carry firearms whenever and wherever they choose? Because, as I saw in Uvalde, Texas, I cannot rely on law enforcement to protect me and my family. Mr. President, give me a break! 

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis vetoing a bill earmarking $35 million for a Tampa Bay Rays facility days after the team went on an anti-gun tirade. I think this is awesome!

The US Department of Justice announce they will not prosecute Scavino and Meadows but Navarro is arrested on the same day this is announced. I must agree that there is a witch hunt underway, and people will continue to be arrested until finally a charge sticks somehow and somewhere to someone. Talk about the rotten politicization of what should be an objective law enforcement organization. Can anyone say GESTAPO, STASI, KGB, or FSB?

I watched “Top Gun Maverick” the other day and have to say that I enjoyed it. It was a fun movie to watch, and it even elicited some emotion, like movies did in my youth. This without the overtly political garbage being pushed by Hollywood these days. Sure, there was some changes from the original such as female fighter pilots which certainly different than the US Navy that I joined shortly after the first Top Gun was released. However, this is the new reality, and it is my understanding that some of the female pilots are good. I think the Vice Admiral Beau “Cyclone” Simpson played by Jon Hamm is actually an accurate representation of most flag officers in the US Navy today. That of being risk adverse and valuing their careers more than mission. Of course, there were the stretches, for example stealing an F-14, pulling 10 g’s as a 50+ year old, and location realism, however, I really did not care. It was an entertaining movie that I did not mind paying to see in a theater. Additionally, judging by the reports, I am not alone as revenue records are being broken by the movie.

Early results are coming in for the first round of primary elections and it does look like left wing cities may have pushed too far to the left. This is most evidenced by the recall of San Francisco’s District Attorney. Maybe there is a ray of sanity left in the world and in this nation’s once vibrant and healthy cities, but I am not going to hold my breath. San Francisco keeps reelecting Nancy Pelosi, so they have a long way to go to recapture its lost brilliance.

I went to a high school graduation ceremony for a niece and a nephew and it was held in one of the local auditoriums in the city nearest me. It was full of people with no regard for social distancing or vaccination status. Albeit there were still a few people wearing masks, but they were doing so of their own volition. For my wife, daughter, and myself, however, there was a cloud over the ceremony because our youngest daughter, who graduated two years ago from high school, did not get to have this experience thanks to the COVID scam. She and countless others missed out on their graduation ceremony’s along with however many others missed out on events thanks to the mass hysteria created, generated, and foisted upon us by our so called leaders in politics, the press, and bureaucratic institutions. Let me say that I am happy for those who get to have ceremonies this year, but it is a bittersweet moment for myself, my family, and others like us whose children did not get to have this experience.

In closing this week I have only one thing to say, “God bless America and to all who are in this country both patriots and enemies equally.”

Random Musings on Current Events 6.3.22

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. Additionally, I know, and it has been proven that Twitter and Facebook would censor what I have to say so I will say what I feel the need to say in this medium. However, with Elon Musk purchasing Twitter perhaps I will have to take Twitter out of my introduction but not just yet. Time will tell I suppose and for that reason I will not remove Twitter just yet from my Random Musings On Current Events introductory paragraph.

I always wonder what the topic of the week in the press will be. So many careers are being made on the never ending news cycle; a cycle that requires periodic injections of crisis to keep it rolling. In my line of work crisis is the last thing that I want or need. So much so that I work to design the possibility of crisis out of my work and so it is somewhat of anathema to my training and thought processes.

I learned this morning that there is already a vaccine being pushed first responders for Monkey Pox. What a coincidence that the vaccine just happened to be ready for distribution within days of the Monkey Pox being declared a problem.

Two days after updating this blog last, I logged onto my computer and had to boot it up three times. Twice to get my screens to work properly and yet another boot after I deleted and reloaded my virus protection software that would not work. I must wonder if there is any coincidence that just as soon as I begin to update this blog that my computer begins to get glitchy. I suppose others would say, “there can be no coincidence as the left leaning controlled big tech monopolies or government agencies would never hack into conservative leaning blog sites and their administrators’ computers.” Additionally, if I were to mention the possibility of any aforementioned possibilities, I would be branded a kooky conspiratorialist who is out of touch with reality. For that reason, I will qualify that I have no proof that this happened, and all evidence is circumstantial.

I find it fascinating and not surprising that with Mr. Musk’s purchase of Twitter, the panic of the established operatives working within and outside of Twitter, the twitter (all pun intended) and buzzing about algorithms, and how the number of followers for certain tweeters have changed that the operatives have been artificially inflating and deflating follower numbers using algorithms. Additionally, it is seeming that the algorithms have been tweaked to favor those whose political ideologies more closely matches those with the same left leaning ideologies of the Twitter operatives. This seems to coincide with the revelation that many of the members of Twitters board of directors were installed and had no investment in Twitter of their own money. I, for one, would like to know which investor(s) in Twitter installed these people on the board? Is it Blackrock or some other murky investing group who may or may not have ties to the CIA, FBI, or some other agency in government? Whoever it may be, they are the power behind these enemies of free speech and discourse in violation of Amendment I of the US Constitution. I say this because with the Section 230 protections granted Twitter and others under law they are, like the government, not a private company but fall into the public sphere and must be held accountable as a government/public entity. They do not, in my opinion, get to censor as if they were a private company.

Gun control, gun control, gun control! Yet again gun control is the topic du jour. Americans!!! Do you think the lock downs were bad in the United States due to the fraudulent fabricated fratricidal COVID mumbo jumbo hocus pocus? Just look at what the governments of Australia, New Zealand, and England were able to get away with in the name of the globalist WHO scheme. It would have been far worse for the US and, in fact, the world if Americans did not have their Second Amendment Rights. In fact, the global cabal, would have succeeded far more than they have been able to because, trust me, they know there is a wall of freedom loving individuals in the United States who will not cow tow to authoritarian dictators.

That being said, in the preceding paragraph, we as Americans should be getting prepared and getting prepared in a hurry for the next wave of authoritarian governmental maneuvers and manipulations as the people who engineered COVID are drunk with power and will continue to demand, defame, denounce, denigrate, delude and create any crisis in order to maintain and usurp more power. They do not care about me and the most certainly do not care about the majority of Americans and freedom loving people in the world. 

The Washington Post on May 30, 2022, ran a headline of a piece written by Mike Madden and Rachel Siegel saying, “US Policymakers Misjudged Inflation Threat Until it was too Late.” Huh? What did you think was going to happen when trillions of dollars were dumped into an economy that was having its production of real goods cut due to draconian government interference because of a “pandemic”? Though I am not an economist, the simple premise that more dollars chasing less goods causes inflation is not a hard one to grasp. Inflation will happen in these conditions just as sure as the sun will come up in the morning. Is there any wonder why I do not trust the media, the Federal Reserve and Washington DC insiders? I mean, duh!

Johnny Depp won his defamation case against Amber Heard? Quite frankly I really did not give one rip about this case simply because of all the media attention it was getting at the expense of real reporting on real issues. Also, it seems that whenever a media frenzy develops around something related to celebrity it is a distraction away from what is really important. Say, for instance, the failure of the sanctions against Russia as the value of the Ruble increases, there is now trade of Saudi oil in a currency other than the US Dollar, and an escalation mentality of US and European leaders against Russia instead of a de-escalation mentality against a well-developed and mature nuclear power. Despite this, I am happy that Johnny Depp stood up to Amber Heard and won. She appears to have been abusive, manipulative, and an outright liar. She used the MeToo movement to cover her evil and has been exposed. What a shock! There are evil women too? Wow, we just cannot take a woman’s word at face value any more than we can a man’s word? The sarcasm just seems to be flowing out of my fingers thinking about this topic.
