Random Musings on Current Events 1.27.23

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

Peaceful riots have turned violent yet again, only this time in Atlanta as leftist hijack a protest against police violence and trouble appears to be brewing in Minneapolis, Minnesota again. Minneapolis is probably in response to the threats to remove Ilhan Omar from the US House Intelligence Committee I suspect. Same playbook, different year, only this time I must wonder what the leftists are up to considering they do not have a Presidential election to overthrow. Or perhaps maybe they are already starting and the true leftist leaders, the ones who hide behind the scenes, are finished with Joe Biden and his corrupt family.

Lindsey Graham is in the Ukraine lecturing us all on how we need to send more arms and even tanks to the Ukraine and blah de de blah blah. I tuned out listening to him because I imagine he probably was going to tell me that if I have one doubt then it is treason. I stole some of the previous sentence’s words from a song written about Vietnam as it seems the new bosses are the same as our old bosses to steal words from another song of the same era. Lindsey Graham is nothing more than Neocon spokes mouth at a minimum and who knows what else in the worst case. Is there any doubt in anyone else’s mind?

Speaking of Neocons and others in Congress I heard that the national debt is now $31.5 trillion, interest rates are rising, the economy is slowing and national government spending is now over $1 trillion per year in the United States. Additionally, the Bureau of Labor and Statistics just announced the Consumer Price Index (CPI) calculation will be changed and yet they have failed to provide transparency on how the calculation will be performed to the general public. All I must do is read the two previous sentences in which a Neocon spokes mouth wants to launder US Taxpayer money through a war to feed the coffers of the defense industry and the other in which the numbers will be fudged to pay retirees and others less money by obfuscating what the real inflation rate is. It seems that the US Federal Government’s sole purpose and those in control of it is to feed itself no matter the cost to the citizens it purports to serve.

I spoke with a friend several months ago who is very knowledgeable in the world of tech. He told me that he believes that we will be cyborgs (part machine, part human) in the near future. It is his opinion that many of us are already part cyborg considering how much we carry our minicomputers disguised as cell phones (smart phones) with us wherever we go. Trouble is, I can see his logic and it disturbs me. Where does the line between being human and tech end? At what point do we cease being human and become a machine with intelligence? Where are our philosophers and clergy to help us define and debate this potential impending reality?

I had reason to visit a medical office the other day in a city nearby where I live. I really did not know what the medical center’s primary focus is but for some reason I was dreading and felt a sort of darkness around the place. Even trying to find it was a bit difficult as the building that I was trying to find that housed the office that I was visiting is tucked among a group of similar buildings. It was as if the building and offices in it were disguised and repelling at the same time to obfuscate their existence to all but those who knew what to look for. I turned the correct corner finally, felt a sense of unease, and the building had a giant sign announcing it was a Woman’s Reproductive Health Building. It was at that moment I realized the type of offices the building held. What I noticed was how warm and inviting the building seemed to be at the same time I felt a sense of nausea. It was well apportioned and the office that I visited had dimmed lights, was warm, and smelled of vanilla. All of which seemed designed to put a woman at ease and now I fully understand why I have felt a darkness emanating from that particular business center.

I have to buy cartridges for my printer which happens to be a Brother color printer and I find it really is no different than any other home office printer whether they be Canon or Epson or whatever. The ink is really expensive for what I get. Essentially what I am getting is two halves of molded plastic, albeit tailored for each individual machine, that is filled with ink. I would imagine the cost of the raw product is less than one tenth of what I pay. I thought about this for some reason staring at a Cross Pen and thinking about how hard it is to get refills for it and how most people, I would believe, have moved to using computers to do their writing. Therefore, there really is not a huge demand for the type of pen that I prefer to use and partly explains why Cross Pen has off shored their production to, hold your breath, China. Yet another consumer good experiencing supply chain issues.

There is news all over the alternate and fringe mainstream media about Project Veritas recording a Pfizer executive. What he says specifically I would encourage others to find but do not use Google because it has censored Project Veritas and anything to do with the recording of this executive. It is interesting that now the so called executive’s social media has been completely scrubbed and there are calls that he was a disinformation agent and blah blah blah. Perhaps either or both are true. What I do know is that Pfizer has a huge advertising and lobbying budget and that they took no money from the US Federal Government to develop their version of the modified ribonucleic acid (nRNA) jab to prevent COVID-19. This so they could reap all the profits unencumbered. So, in summary, I know Pfizer has the deep pockets and ability to be guilty of setting this whole thing up, being guilty of what the gentleman professed Pfizer being guilty of, and I also know Pfizer can certainly afford to have a sophisticated damage control operation instituted.

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.

Random Musings on Current Events 1.20.23

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

I must decide if I want to spend the money to continue this blog. This blog that is read by few and far between and lately half of them are in mainland China. Evidently, I am circling somewhere over the target, at least relative to my ramblings concerning China and the Chinese Communist Party, otherwise, why would they be watching me? Yes, I assume in is the government of China that is watching me with no proof because I firmly believe that there is nothing that happens in China without the explicit or implicit approval of the government.

I learned that the net worth of Jerome Powell in the two years that he has been chairman of the US Federal Reserve has seen his net worth grow from $20 million to over $60 million. This while my net worth and standard of living has shrunk during this same time period. How is it that a man who creates no value whatsoever but merely oversees an organization that essentially is devaluing the value of currency more than triples his net worth? Does anyone else see something fundamentally wrong with this?

Speaking of rich people, smoke and mirrors, and hypocrisy. It seems that the number of private jets flying into Davos has skyrocketed for the meeting of the worlds uber elite. This and they are requesting pilots who have not participated in the mRNA injection experiment and will be serving beef at the meetings and restaurants surrounding the meeting areas. Why do we collectively give our freedoms and power over to these self-aggrandizing, selfish hypocrites who do not give a rip about our standards of living?

I read yet another Associated Press (AP) report and this report is on the storms that keep rolling into the US west coast. As per script the article details some of the trials and tribulations of Californian’s this winter to include flooding, heavy mountain snows, and the Los Angeles River, among other coastal California rivers running unabated into the Ocean. As per script the article had the obligatory sentence blaming this all on climate change. As per script I rolled my eyes how fires, drought, flooding, winter storms are all due to climate change. Well, duh, the climate did change when the Hua Tonga Tonga Volcano ejected water vapor and ash to the outer reaches of Earth’s atmosphere last January only mankind had nothing to do with it.

It seems the drums of war keep beating without any change in their tempo. Now the US and NATO are sending tanks, more money, and whatever else to the Ukrainian NAZI fascist. This while natural gas prices rise in the US because ours is being shipped to Europe. This because a war was started by the west and Russia shut off Europe’s natural gas and the west sabotaged another pipeline from Russia. It seems that Fascism is alive and well in the West, a portion of the world that ostensibly destroyed fascism in World War II.

Speaking of fascism, Davos, and their intersection apparently the Chairmen of Siemens, the huge multinational conglomerate that even includes the once venerable Westinghouse, a company of US origins, apparently feels that a billion people need to stop eating meat. OK, so what he is saying is that he needs a billion undernourished servants who will not have the energy to question that he and others like him dictate. I am supposed to believe a man who is chairman of the board of yet another company that flourished underneath the fascist German Nazi’s is altruistic and has my best interests in mind when he spews his venomous, inciting, and condescending drivel?

Now Green Berets are being arrested for trafficking illicit drugs from Central and South America. Add them to the inglorious list that includes Navy SEALS. It seems that the collapse of the United States is nigh now that our elite warrior class has also been corrupted.

Personally, I know that I need to step up my spiritual practice because the institutions that I once held in high regard are no more. Perhaps it was a mistake in the first place to hold these institutions in high regard because as Moses said, “We must hold no false idols before God”. Perhaps I did not hold my God in high enough regard and so now I must step up my practice. This because mankind’s leadership is certainly failing and appears to be on the road to mass destruction.

Random Musings and (mostly) Election Observations 11.11.22

Random Musings and Special Election Observations 11.11.22

The pundits are already blaming the poorer than advertised showing of Republicans because of Donald Trump. This was from a “New York Democrat” on Fox who voted Republican. He blames Donald Trump for the Republicans not winning in New York. All I can say right now is get lost New York and get lost California. I do not give a rip about what you think, say or do. Go and do something with yourselves and leave me out of it. For you who care, I toned down and removed several expletives in this draft as compared to my first draft in case you wondered what I really think

The area that I live in, which is predominately Red, had the number of polling locations consolidated from 2 to 1 in this election. In the one remaining polling location, where I voted yesterday, there were five machines, one of which was not working, and this number was down from nine voting machines at this location the previous election. Within 45 minutes of my arriving to vote, the line was long, all of the voting machines (Dominion Voting Machines in case anyone wonders) quit working and the workers at the polling location said that a technician had been called. In the meantime, I live in a State where all voters were mailed a ballot, the workers made sure everyone who was in line to vote in person knew that if they had a mail in ballot, they could drop them off in the box provided at the polling location. The voters in line were informed that they could go to another polling location in the county as well. Needless to say, I would estimate around 40 people took advantage of dropping their ballots into the box and the line grew increasing short in a relatively short amount of time.

Due to the rapid decrease in the length of the line I quickly found myself inside the building where the machines were located only to learn that the computer that was used to somehow synchronize a card that is used to insert into the voting machines themselves was the problem. The woman who was working on the computer was the same person who suggested and argued that the drop box was secure and that there was no way to commit fraud despite the mail in ballots having no way to verify their accuracy via signature once taken out of the envelope.

All the while as people cast their mail in ballots more people arrived and the remaining stalwarts, me included, remained in line waiting to see what was going to happen. At some point the workers made mention that no technician had been dispatched at about the same time a news crew from one of the local television stations showed up. The crew mentioned that there were problems in another area of the county that is predominately Red also, shot some footage, and left. Miraculously, within five minutes of the news crew leaving the computer that synchronized the voting machine cards started to work and within ten minutes I was able to cast my vote on a machine. I spent a total of two hours waiting in line for a machine and the computer did not work for about 50 minutes.

I decided to check the national news a few hours later during my lunch break and learned that in Arizona’s Maricopa County there was massive trouble with voting machines and in other places around the country voting machines did not have the right ink or ink distribution to print ballots. Funny that it seemed, according to reports, that most of the problems, like the one I experienced, were mostly in Red areas. I thought to myself, uh oh, how can a first world country, supposedly, and the inventors of high tech computers have these sorts of troubles?

Moving on to the evening, the results were on television in my household whether I wanted them on or not. I learned that in the big Democrat run city of Philadelphia the democrat candidate at the time had over 90% of the vote. Does that seem a bit extreme to anyone else? Of course, the talking heads have all the reasons in the world that this is happening in Philadelphia, Atlanta, Phoenix, and other areas. I am sorry but it is all starting to sound a bit too canned for my taste and a bit too formulaic. Let us not forget that Philadelphia and New York are essentially “no go” zones due to rampant crime.

The day after the election, I woke up to find that the Arizona and Nevada races were too close to call and at the same time the election office had been closed for hours in my home state. In Nevada Republicans were ahead in the Senate and Governor races but only 76% of the votes had been counted which puzzled me to no end. Nevada is a state that uses the dominion voting machines but county officials are stating that it will take longer because of the mail in ballots. This after they shut down their ballot counting machines overnight and claim the results will not be in for over a week. Wait! What really is going on here? Something smells fishy here and it is not just the fishy smell blowing north across the border from Arizona.

Now, it is Friday and in Nevada Adam Laxalt barely holds a lead for Senate, the Republican Governor candidate, Joe Lombardo, is barely holding on to a lead, in Arizona Kari Lake just cannot seem to get over the hump, and Arizona’s Republican candidate for Senate Blake Masters cannot seem to really close the gap. In Washoe County, Nevada which has the cities of Reno and Sparks, the second most populous county in Nevada behind Clark County which has Las Vegas I have heard reports of voter machine malfunctions on election day. Additionally, I have heard that Washoe County has a live stream of their vote counting rooms that up until about 3 PM yesterday, Thursday November 2, 2022, and Adam Laxalt was up by nearly a thousand votes. At about 3 pm two of the cameras went down for a couple of hours and when the four cameras came back online Catherine Cortez Masto, the Democratic candidate for the US Senate, had a five thousand vote lead in the county and the Joe Lombardo’s lead was drastically diminished. Coincidence? I do not know but it certainly seems strange in today’s world and climate. One would think that the County, which once could produce election results on election night, would be able to do the same in today’s day and age.

Speaking of Arizona and machines breaking down in Maricopa County, the Secretary of State responsible for monitoring the elections is running for Governor and did not recuse herself from monitoring the election!? Whoa whoa whoa! Talk about a blatant conflict of interest and the mainstream press is not reporting a thing about this, not even Fox.

A good Veteran’s Day to all in the United States who have served and to those outside the United States have a good Remembrance Day.

What is going on here? Have we given up so much of our freedoms in the name of convenience and maintaining stability that we cannot even call a spade a spade? All of this reeks of corruption and no one within the establishment will call it so. Only people outside of the establishment are calling it what it is.

A good Veteran’s Day to all in the United States who have served and to those outside the United States have a good Remembrance Day. 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.

Liz Truss is out and Jeremy Hunt, globalist extraordinaire, is back in the mix along with BoJo in Britain. What else could possibly happen in the topsy turvy world of British politics? Quite honestly, why do I give a twitters tweet?

The average family has lost the equivalent of $6,000 dollars this past year due to the ravages of inflation. Everyone wants to blame Joe Biden which he should be blamed but he is not the only one who should be blamed. How about all the other members of Congress on both sides of the aisle who passed the ridiculous spending packages in the name of COVID relief.

New Zealand is canceling Shakespeare? What? Huh?

President Biden was just telling us all how to get student loan forgiveness. I wonder if I would be able to file a claim for the loans that I paid off more than twenty years ago? The loans that I paid off ahead of time because I can do math and realize the amount of money that I saved by paying these loans off early. Oh, let us not forget the sacrifice in lifestyle that I committed to pay these loans off early.

Mike Lee the Senator from Utah is outing Mitt Romney, Utah’s other Senator, because Mitt Romney will not endorse him in Mike Lee’s reelection. Yet again Mitt Romney’s true colors are on full display and they are blue, not red.

So, a juvenile kills 5 with a shotgun and President Biden calls for an assault weapons ban yet again. Last time I checked, a shotgun is not an assault weapon and the kid had a weapon he was not supposed to have. So, I am now supposed to believe that criminals will still not be able to get weapons if the weapons are illegal to have? Get real.

President Biden extended the COVID Emergency declaration another 90 days? What? Huh? Why did he need to extend it? What sorts of dictatorial power do his handlers not want to give up? As if to follow in lockstep the Governors of California and Illinois have done the same thing for their respective states. In the same news segment that I saw the coverage I saw coverage of the Chinese Communist Party Congress. I found it interesting that the Politburo, sitting up on the dais, did not have to wear masks yet everyone else in the room had to wear masks. Hmm, the optics are not good on this for the Governors of California and Illinois but, then again, perhaps they are just how these two governors lean? Perhaps they are in all actuality being controlled in some way by the Chinese Communist Party? I bet if the two governors attended the Chinese Communist Party Congress they would be required to wear masks.

I found it interesting that Secretary of State Blinken has met with Condoleezza Rice in California at the University of Stanford. A socialist is now meeting with a neocon in an East Coast elite stronghold on the West Coast. Whatever were they cooking up?

I am still waiting for the Secret Service to investigate Nancy Pelosi for threatening a sitting President with bodily harm. Wait, is what is good for me not good for thee?

I am still grappling with the notion that someone of General Michael Keane’s’ stature and experience would want to give nuclear technology to the House of Sa’ud? Is it as a sort of balance against Israel and potentially Iran? If so, how does this help the situation for maintaining peace? Something just is not sitting right as I read about NATO and the US conducting regularly planned strategic bomber exercises in Europe. Is it not hard enough keeping the existing nuclear powers on the right side of war let alone allowing more into the nuclear club, so to speak?

One time I donated to President Trump’s campaign and, in fact, I even supported Senator Graham during the 2020 election. It was obvious that my information was either given or sold to the Graham campaign because I was sent emails and texts that were remarkably like those that the Trump campaign sent. This election cycle my texts are getting blown up with solicitations from mostly Republican candidates and yet again they all essentially look the same as from 2020. What is amazing to me is how many phone numbers that these campaign organizations of businesses are purchasing because no matter how many of these numbers that I ignore, which is all of them, more texts keep rolling in.

Speaking of which I recently got several of these texts from the Republican National Party (RNC) despite being called by their phone callers more than once in which I told them that I will no longer support the RNC. I told the phone caller, both times, that so long as Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, the RINO Senator from Utah and other Republicans who would rather be in the minority rather than be leaders received support from the RNC I could no longer support the RNC. I have not received any more phone calls to my knowledge but I sure am getting a lot of texts. Of course, I ignore at least five calls a day that are obviously telemarketers or spam so perhaps I am giving them too much credit.

More January 6 hearings in the kangaroo committee in the US House of Representatives. I would yawn if it were not for the waste of taxpayer money, time, and affront to freedom that it represents. Just ask Brandon Straka and others while Nancy Pelosi who threatened to punch President Trump while he was still in office was never arrested and will surely not be called before the kangaroo committee. Who really incites violence?

Speaking of California, the state that Nancy Pelosi’s tiny district that she supposedly represents is part of, I just learned that there is an organization or perhaps even a movement called the New California State which appears to be legitimate at least on the surface. I am impressed to learn that this seems to be well organized and to be honest well along in its development and organization. Stay tuned for more on this because I believe that I may have to “recognize” this new state. My concern is that I hope they are prepared for the attacks that inevitably will come at them from all corners of the dictatorial regime in California with backing from Washington D.C. See my comment on Nancy Pelosi in the preceding paragraph. One also need to look no further than the chair of the kangaroo committee representing yet another small district in the Golden State.

The Russians have shot several rocket volleys over the Ukraine in the past week. I thought their rocket reserves were decimated and that Russia was on the verge of collapse? You will have to pardon my cynicism and pessimism but I do not believe a word that is coming out of the mainstream media, the US Government spokes people, and certainly not out of the White House. Now Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin is saying the Ukraine conflict was solely started by Russia? This is the same man who is forcing by coercion US Military personnel to take an experimental mRNA injection or be separated from the military and I am supposed to believe and trust what he says in truth? A man who was until just a couple of years ago on the payroll of Raytheon? I don’t think so.

Alex Jones has been handed a penalty of nearly a billion dollars based on a sham trial in which the Judge, an obvious political hack, would not even allow him to defend himself. This because he failed to produce documents that did not exist and in which Alex Jones admitted that he made a mistake. Whoa whoa whoa! Wait a New York second. I am not familiar with the details of the trial and what Mr. Jones said, did not say, or what his organization did. However, I have been aware of Alex Jones for well over a decade and know that he is anything but a conformist. My impression is that he is passionate and will say what is on his mind at any given moment whether it is right or wrong but will admit when he is wrong which apparently happened in the case of Sandy Hook. This leads me to question the magnitude of response against Mr. Jones in this matter. It seems to be way out of proportion and has me questioning if this is not a political-economic hit job when the media is constantly falsifying and covering up for those in the elite (i.e., Hunter Biden, Iraq War justification, Benghazi, Hillary Clinton server, Russia Collusion etc.). All I can think now is that apparently Alex Jones is over the target for there to be such a ridiculous trial and penalty to be levied against him. I must ask, for the umpteenth (who knows how many) time, what really is going on here? This appears to be a complete sham against him and quite honestly a criminal conspiracy. What about Mr. Jones’ First Amendment Rights and thanks to this ridiculous over reaction by the establishment and its blatant violation to guarantee his First Amendment Rights I must think that Mr. Jones is probably correct about more and more things than ever before.

I have been checking this website’s statistics and how many visitors I am getting per day and per week. Needless to say, it is not too many and I am OK with that. After all, I must wonder with the bots and algorithms written and controlled by Twitter, Google, Facebook and the others just how many visits their sites really are getting? I know it is more than me as it should but I now am quite confident that they really are not as big as they purport to be. In fact, like Lucifer they are mostly illusion using lies and deception to hoodwink a great number of people into giving up their souls.

Don’t Ask Me To Your War Party

Watching and listening the news surrounding the Ukraine, the Nordstream pipeline, President Biden and his family lining their pocketbooks by promising more aid to Ukraine, and now the Russians firing missiles into Kyiv I am feeling even more uneasy. This uneasiness was stoked initially after watching General Jack Keane (Retired) speaking on the Mark Levin Show a week ago. For those who may not know Jack Keane, in addition to being a retired US Army 4 star general officer, he currently sits on the board for the Institute for Study of War funded by General Dynamics, DynCorp and previously by Raytheon according to Wikipedia (I know I know I don’t have time to verify). Additionally, Gen. Keane is a founder of International, Peace, and Prosperity (IP3) whose purpose is to transfer nuclear technology from the United States to Saudi Arabia (again according to Wikipedia).

In the interview I was surprised at the vehemence that both the General and Mark Levin had in branding the Russians as the enemy and additionally denouncing those who would even merely suggest that the United States or its surrogates may have anything to do with the sabotage of the Nordstream Pipeline. There was one moment in the interview when the real Jack Keane flashed his combat look and it was that of the steely eyed determination of a combat veteran and quite honestly it was frightening. I have seen this look before, in more than a few instances, and I suddenly became aware of something. That is that a war is, indeed being waged, and we Americans better wake up.

Why am I uneasy now one may ask? I am uneasy of this because it appears to me that not only are the Neocons (I now put Mark Levin and General Keane in this category) waging war against the Russians but they are waging war against free and open debate on the Ukraine in the United States. What I deduced from this conversation is that they want to dictate the narrative and that they not only want me to agree but that they expect me to believe what they are saying. Even more frightening is that I now believe that they will do whatever is necessary to ensure their agenda succeeds and they have serious backing (defense industry backing) for support.

The reason I believe this is General Keane is part of a group supporting the transfer of Nuclear Technology to the House of Saud, sits on the board of a think tank backed by huge players in the defense industry, and is on the Mark Levin show discussing how to fight a nuclear exchange with the Russians at the same time Russian President Vladimir Putin is publicly stating that Russia reserves the right (and capability no doubt) to use nuclear weapons to defend itself. I am supposed to accept that all is rosy in their view of the world knowing these facts? Why is no one in the mainstream media and politics not discussing the increase in rhetoric around the use of nuclear weapons and how to cool this situation off?!? This is not a good thing and I would argue that the Russians have just demonstrated this fact with the missile strikes across the Ukraine!

Is it because the greedy members of the Democratic Party (i.e. Biden and Clinton Families) are making too much money from kickbacks from the Ukrainian aid, is it because the leftist ideologues in the Democratic Party (i.e. Obama, Rice etc.) want a nuclear war to tear down the system so they can rebuild it in the image that they envision, or perhaps the Neocons who run the deep state who see an opportunity to further or somehow strengthen their grips on the levers of power in the government? Or could it be some hermaphrodite version of either or any or all the above or even something else I do not know. What I do know is that they are playing with a fire and that is dangerous beyond all comprehension and the consequences of this fire getting out of control are not good.

As a child of the Cold War, I find it reprehensible and an affront to my service that these so called leaders would even consider taking steps in the direction that they are going. I must ask myself where are the adults in the room when these characters are having these conversations? It appears to me that they believe they are truly untouchable and most importantly they truly believe the rhetoric and are not afraid of the consequences of the actions that they are supporting, suggesting, and or executing.

I believe in summary what is bothering me is that there really is no good explanation being made to the public as to why these actions are underway. Maybe there is a good reason from their point of view but it is not being shared with me nor do I expect it to be shared with me because I am more than familiar with the arrogance of the East and West Coast ruling elites in the United States. To them I am cannon fodder and menial labor to be kept waiting and expected to jump when called upon to jump. Do I believe they care about me, my family, or my friends? No, I do not, and if fact I am starting to understand that they really do not even see me as a human being but rather as chattel to be used and discarded as they see fit. Perhaps, this is what Vladimir Putin is feeling right now as all forms of communication in terms of trade, finance, and travel are being cut to the country he presides over?

As the East Coast elites hype up the war in Ukraine, I must ask myself who has our six with regards to China? China seems to be conspicuously silent as their surrogate North Korea launches missiles and I cannot but help but wonder what they are up to? America be careful of the East Coast elites who by nature tend to focus primarily on Europe while they are unwittingly losing a war against an Asian enemy who does not play by the same rules.

In closing, I am reminded of a song by Eddy Grant a Guyanese British artist who was born in 1948 called “War Party” which was released in 1982 on his Killer on the Rampage album. I am not sure specifically for what conflict or what continent this song was written, but it seems to have universal meaning, at least for me sitting in North America thinking about Europe and the rest of the world. The lyrics go something like this:

You invite me to a war party, me no wanna go

Everybody seem to be invitin’ me to a war party, me no wanna go

Heard about the last one so thanks but no thanks

yo ho, a yo ho

You killed off all the Indians and you killed off all the slaves

and not quite so you kill of the remains

you look for me, I lookin’ for you

I can’t believe what say bout you is true

That you are a bastard just like Pharaoh

You kill the children just like Pharaoh

Now you send a ticket for me

You don’t have a RSVP

Oh Lord it’s a war party, me no wanna go

Everybody seem to be invitin’ me to a war party, me no wanna go

Heard about the last one so thanks but no thanks

yo ho, a yo ho

You invited all our wise men many times before

To dance around your fires and even up your scores

and when those spaken of the valiant and the brave

The only decoration is the one above the grave

You’re a bastard just like Pharaoh

You kill the children just like Pharaoh

Now you send a ticket for me

And you don’t have RSVP

Oh Lord it’s a war party, me no wanna go

Everybody seem to be invitin’ me to a war party, me no wanna go

Heard about the last one so thanks but no thanks

yo ho, a yo ho

Please don’t send no ticket for me

No, don’t send no ticket

No, don’t send no ticket for me if you don’t have RSVP

Oh Lord it’s a war party, me no wanna go

Everybody seem to be invitin’ me to a war party, me no wanna go

Heard about the last one so thanks but no thanks,

do you wanna go, say no

Do you wanna go, say no

Me no wanna go right now, Me no wanna go right now

They invite me to a war party, me no wanna go

Everybody seem to be invitin’ me to a war party, me no wanna go

God Bless

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 6^th 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.”

Memorial Day 2022

Each year as Memorial Day and its associated weekend comes around, I take time to pause and reflect upon my service; the service of others that I know; the service of those before me; and most importantly the ultimate sacrifice paid by many of those who served. I will, however, be the first to admit that as a child and young person I looked forward to Memorial Day as a three day weekend in which I hoped that the weather would decide to be summer instead of winter as can happen where I lived and grew up. After all, Spring is nothing more than an increasing number of summer days interspersed with a lessening number of winter days in the inter mountain west of the United States of America. I do not remember my parents or family acknowledging Memorial Day much besides flying of the US flag except for one time. This one time my parents went to one of the local cemeteries and visited the graves of my father’s grandparents and put flowers on their graves.

The Memorial Day prior to the COVID scam being unleashed on the world I went to my first Memorial Day ceremony at the Veteran’s Cemetery closest to me and found it to be a terrifying, moving and somewhat healing experience. Walking into the cemetery I found myself instinctively pacing and separating myself from my wife as if I was on patrol despite myself never actually participating in a combat patrol. I was deep in thought remembering the time I spent in Afghanistan, those who I knew and those who I did not know that perished in Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan. I also thought about those who I had worked with who served in WWII, Korea and Vietnam and my late Grandfather, a WWII vet, who is buried in the same cemetery that I was entering. It must have shown on my face and or countenance because my wife forced me to hold her hand and I soon realized that I was holding her hand tightly when one of the workers at the ceremony, a Vietnam veteran, looked at me and said, “welcome home”. It was like having water thrown on me as I suddenly came into the presence of that moment, and I thanked him in turn. Interesting enough I am wiping away a tear or two as I type this paragraph.

This year will mark the first year that I plan to attend the annual Memorial Day ceremony at the Veteran’s Cemetery as COVID marred the previous two years; the fist being canceled; the second year by my refusal to wear a face diaper outside in fresh air and the natural anti-microbial light of the sun. This year, as I reflect on the death of my child I also reflect upon the needless loss, in my opinion, of the twelve marines, one sailor and numerous civilians at the Abbey Gate of the Hamid Karzai International Airport last August. Twelve families, like me, who mourn the loss of their young, loved ones. Young lives needlessly cut short by the ineptitude of senior political and military leaders who placed their careers over proper planning and execution of an organized and planned withdrawal from a combat zone and or their out and out disregard for the lives of those who served under them.

The first place that I place responsibility is with the senior political leadership of the United States of America starting with the President and Secretary of Defense. I know that they were not responsible for the actual planning and execution of the withdrawal, however, it is my belief that they set the tone for the withdrawal that made what was a difficult situation a worse situation. I believe they most likely understood this because of the warnings prior to the attack and the lack of action in holding anyone including themselves accountable for the botched withdrawal. I say this considering the Commander of the US Central Command at that time, General Kenneth F. McKenzie Jr., was allowed to serve his tour out and the Commander on the ground at that time, Maj, Gen. Chris Donahue, has since picked up another star and is now the Commander of the XVIII Airborne Corps. It amazes me how a young officer or junior sailor, airman, or soldier can have a career ruined by one alcohol related offense and or failing to adhere to the politically correct agenda being foisted upon them by senior civilian and military leadership. Yet, commanding generals who lose lives in a combat zone are promoted and allowed to serve their combat tours out.

This leads me to the failure of these senior military leaders and what to me constitutes a failure to take responsibility for their failures as was done in bygone eras in which senior leaders, being honor bound to “falling on their swords”, would take responsibility for their wartime failings. Yes, I do not know what sort of, if any direction, these senior military leaders received from their senior civilian leadership, but it is my opinion that these military leaders failed not only their civilian leadership (or maybe they didn’t and were following orders) but they certainly failed those who served underneath them. I say this because I believe that most who have spent any time in Afghanistan knew or should have known how corrupt and fragile the government was and how deep the Taliban had penetrated the government and country at large. I cannot believe knowing the US was pulling out of Afghanistan that the military leadership allowed the base at Bagram to be evacuated prior to the remaining troops and diplomatic personnel being evacuated from the country. True, they may have been ordered to evacuate by senior civilian leadership, but they could have easily resigned their post rather than execute a bad order! Again, I will say these Generals would not have lost their pensions had they resigned and so really had nothing to lose financially with their prides being the only item to lose. Instead, lives were lost so that they could maintain their pride, egos, and military careers which is a complete tragedy and failure of honor at the highest level. I would expect more from those who wear the uniform regardless of service branch.

In summarizing my thoughts for this Memorial Day, it is hard for me to be angry anymore as I feel a sense of defeat. Yes, our senior civilian and military leadership are nothing but a bunch of self-serving, sociopaths who have no honor. Quite honestly, in my opinion, it is just a reflection of society and where we are as a country, and it makes me sad that we as a people have allowed and given people of this ilk positions of power and influence in our country. I will salute those this year who have paid the ultimate sacrifice and as usual I will salute those who have served and those who do serve. For the civilians who died in the bomb blast “ta didar bad”, for the Marines and Sailor who perished “Semper Fi and Fair Winds and Following Seas”, and for the United States “God Bless”.

A Crisis in Confidence with National Leadership

I have a crisis of confidence in the leadership of my country to effectively lead on my behalf and the behalf of the majority of Americans. This has been further exacerbated in the last week with the apparent failure of senior leadership to effectively and orderly pull out of Afghanistan followed by their inability to assume responsibility whatsoever for their failures.

First, what has happened throughout Afghanistan in the past several weeks that has culminated with the fall of Afghanistan and the debacle at the airport falls squarely on senior political, civilian, and military leadership. As Joe Biden has pointed out the “buck stops here” and now the question is how big or epic will this “blunder” be. I have no illusions that the Joe Biden made this decision in a vacuum as his handlers, I am quite sure, made the decision. From this day forward I will refer to Joe Biden as the Joe Biden Cabal (JBC) because in his dotage I seriously doubt he has one shred of independence of mind left. It is time for some resignations, retirements, and quite honestly some criminal investigations.

Secondly, how am I to support and believe any of these leaders when they are now pulling out every conceivable card in the effort to make me a test subject in a mass gene therapy experiment? I was totally disheartened when Lloyd Austin claimed that every member of the armed services will be subject to the experimental shot by September 15, 2021. The jab has not even been approved by the FDA yet for goodness sakes. Mr. Austin that in not a lawful order and you should, if you were still in service, face a court martial if you make in mandatory. The military leadership appeared to have spent more time figuring out how to give an experimental jab to all sailors, airmen, and soldiers than ensuring the safe exit of Americans out of Afghanistan. I can only wonder what is being done to thwart any military planning against the Peoples Republic of China.

Speaking of the FDA and their corruptions. I find it interesting that they will push through testing on experimental gene therapy and its acceptance for a disease that really poses no more threat to the population than a flu yet they will not approve CBD, which is not marijuana, for use in food. I really find it interesting that now a pharmaceutical company is claiming to have a patent on CBD, which I thought one could not get if it is a naturally occurring substance, and the marketing of CBD will become illegal. Hmmm, does this smell of corruption to anyone else but me?

Of course, do not let me get started on the EPA which has essentially become a tool wielded to shake down industry and business in the country along with the various other bureaucratic government institutions. How did we get to the place where government agencies choose who can succeed and who cannot in our economy? I must wonder about the type of person who would aspire to positions of authority in these organizations. Are they power hungry mediocrities or useful idiots for those in the businesses who use the government to protect and gain favorable market conditions?

Lastly, for today, is the utter contempt I have for the media and big tech in this country mainly for not holding the leadership of the country accountable and, in fact, blatantly supporting the leadership’s information operation. It has become so obvious that the system has become or is so corrupt that honor no longer is present amongst these vipers and they will do whatever it takes to provide cover and concealment to the crooked political class, the crooked senior military class, the crooked business class, and especially themselves. I no longer consider any of you authorities in your so called areas of expertise. You may have power and can wield in the material world more so, but you do not in my mind which is the real seat of my power.

Random Musings 1.6.21

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, now I know that Twitter and Facebook would censor what I have to say any way.

I heard today that Lin Wood may have evidence of child molestations up to and including murder being used to blackmail prominent members of the political and executive elites in this country. Just the thought of this disgusts me and if it is true these people and people who would condone and carry out this sort of act to gain political leverage should be held accountable. My stomach roils at the thought of this happening and if someone has this evidence they should be releasing it so the light of day can shine of this utterly despicable atrocity. I mean having an affair with a consenting adult whether of the same sex or not is one thing but this is a crime against the innocent which to me is unpardonable.

The news was just turned off in my house and I screamed when I learned that voting is Georgia has been halted for the night. You have got to be absolutely kidding me!?!? What happened did all the cheats move from Fulton County to DeKalb County because they knew the light was shining too bright in Fulton County? Yet another you have to be absolutely kidding me moment!

I have to admit that when I tuned into FOX News at 9 PM EST I was pleasantly surprised that they had not called the election yet. Although I am sure Paul Ryan and Rupert Murdoch are giggling as they go to sleep tonight knowing that counting has ceased.

Rasmussen Polling keeps calling me and I keep ignoring the call. To be honest I am ignoring everything remotely “mainstream” and especially all requests for money. I am one step away from divorcing myself and declaring myself independent in mind if nothing else. Quite honestly I am asking myself why I even waste my time listening to such drivel when there are so many other things I could do. For instance read some Aristotle and other Western classics.

On that note, I will place equal blame on President Trumps election trouble and the fact the elections is so “close” in Georgia at the feel of Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney, Mike Lee, Tom Cotton, Ben Sasse and other milk toast, greedy, and corrupted Senators who will not stand for the sanctity of my vote. I have heard others say and I agree that the GOP is on life support and thanks to President Trump it is not dead. I for one will never support a GOP lead by any of these corrupt politicians who seem to profit from public service nor will I any candidate regardless of party who profits from public service. If they are profiting they are stealing from me and now I am convinced of it fully.

On a more international note has anyone noticed that both China and Iran have stepped up their bellicose rhetoric in the last week? I also see that Saudi Arabia is reducing their production of oil. I find it fascinating that over the past four years their rhetoric has quieted and they have, in fact, been put in their place more than once. Now, on the eve of what many believe will be a change in the Presidency they have become bolder. Is there anyone else drawing a similar conclusion? I would imagine it will be even worse if Joe Biden becomes President as the rogue actors who have lost money and power the last four years work to refill both their financial and power coffers. In fact, they cannot even wait for an inauguration!
