Random Musings on Current Events 5.15.2025

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, raves and revelations in the media from behind the front lines of a purple state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants, revelations and gratitude’s in a sort of stream of conscious journal format and, yes, there may be some sarcasm thrown in.

Speaking of sarcasm being spread for the first post of mine in a few weeks I learned that Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, US Senator from Michigan Elissa Slotkin, Alex Soros, and former US President Obama met in Toronto this week. Oh my goodness, I can only imagine the good for me and the countless others like me that could come out of that meeting of true luminaries of the international world rules based order. Speaking of luminaries I seem to remember that Lucifer was once a light bearer and, in fact, still is a light bearer of sorts, just not the light that I choose to follow. How easy it is to make the conceptual leap in my mind that this cabal could easily be following the illumination provided by Luciferian origins because they certainly do not support human endeavor in the classical American sense.

President Trump and his entourage are returning from China if they have not already returned by the time I put this post up. On the surface it sounds like some good things have been said in the joint statement(s) coming out of Beijing with no surprise on China’s Taiwan stance, China’s agreement with the US regarding the Strait of Hormuz is welcoming, purchasing oil, gas, aircraft and agriculture products potentially from the US, and agreeing to “strengthening diplomatic and military communication channels over the next three years and beyond. As I have said this looks good on the surface and not much more can be expected, in my opinion, from people who take a much longer view of politics than we do in the west. One striking example of this is the three years and beyond. It is obvious in the one statement that the Chinese understand full well and good the President Trump will no longer be the President in three years. It will be interesting to see if a planned state visit by Chairmen Xi to the US will happen later this year and what may come of it.

I find it difficult not to get a bit excited about America’s looming 250^th birthday. I am old enough to remember our bicentennial and what a big deal all of the media made of it. I remember seeing it on the television, broadcast only at that time, and the festivities around it in the town that I was in at the time. I wonder if the division in the country will dampen what should be a celebratory time? One thing for certain is the radical leftists in America would just as soon forget that the American Revolution ever happened. In fact, one has to wonder if they are the modern day Tories that our founding fathers defeated because they seem determined to destroy all that is good that came out of the American Revolution.

I learned in recent weeks that the US Dept of War is requiring some defense contractors to put up their own money in capital improvement projects to meet the DOW’s demand. I hope this is true because I am aware of just how corrupted the DOW procurement process is and could be. Even Harry Truman, when he was a Senator, butted heads with the corruption in the system and I can only imagine how much worse it has become in the intervening decades. I have no illusions that the military industrial complex needs some serious haircuts and restructuring to lean it out and get itself into some semblance of fighting shape.

Speaking of corruption and how power corrupts I need to look at the energy sector a little bit and specifically oil and gas. For years the cost of gasoline always goes up in the summer during the peak automobile travel period and this year is no different. Only this year is approaching the most expensive that I have seen in quite some time and not too far away from ever. I admit that I am not adjusting for inflation. I grasp a bit that the Strain of Hormuz is impacting Europe and Asia much more than the US because in the US we have our own oil. This is great but it just puts more demand on US oil and keeps the price up that I have to pay. OK, fine, if the dollars that I spend are going to US companies that will in turn invest in the US. However, I am not sure of this when I see Shell oil, a European owned company and others siphoning the profits to spend anywhere but on US infrastructure. In fact, I would guess that many of these foreign owned companies see to it that groups within the US are funded that are opposed to developing and maintaining US energy independence. All one has to do is look to California and what the green movement has done to its refineries, its own oil producing capacities and its industry.

I have heard some say that we are at a critical point in this country not unlike where we were as colonies in the days of the American Revolution, in some respects. It seems there are foreign powers who do not want any manufacturing to occur on our shores, the populations is divided by those desiring freedom and those who are comfortable with the status quo and a government that is largely unresponsive to the populace. Let’s hope that we do not have to have a shooting war like during the American Revolution but that the fundamentals of the American republic can be restored to what made this nation great.

Now, onto current events I have to ask why there has been no voting reform? How come the SAVE act is languishing in Congress? I have no trouble whatsoever providing identification to prove that I am who I say I am in order to vote. I just completed travels in which I had to use domestic air travel and I had to provide my identification to check in for my flights. I have to carry identification to drive, two forms of identification to open a bank account and the list goes on. To those who say it is not fair all I can say is life is not always fair. Why should those who have entered the country illegally or those who are no longer alive or any host of other fraudulently voting individuals be allowed to infringe on my right to free and fair elections? Come on Senators and Congressmen, get off your duffs and get to work!

God bless America and all her citizens and residents, no matter whether they are enemies, not enemies or somewhere between. Additionally, forgive me for my trespasses as I forgive those who trespass against me.

Random Musing on Current Events 4.18.2026

I had planned to type this up the day after the successful completion of Artemis 2’s mission splashdown off he coast of San Diego. It was awesome to watch with amazement and pride as an American to watch and understand the precision that went into the mission. I can vaguely remember the last Apollo mission and of course, as a child, I watched the first Space Shuttle launches and returns. Of course, I also remember vividly both Space Shuttle tragedies. I will admit that while others in my age group dreamed of being like Mike or making it into the Big Leagues one of my dreams was to go into space. Like most of us, a dream that never bore fruit for various reasons, the least of which is not being physically qualified or able. Regardless, all congratulations go out to the Artemis crew, ground crews, engineering staff, manufacturers supporting the mission and their families.

Now, moving half a world away when I started this post the first round of talks between the US and Iran ended with no agreement. In response the US had declared a blockade on all Iranian ports and shipping coming in or out of these ports. On top of this the Pope and President Trump were at odds as is NATO and President Trump. Then I learn of the Liberal World Order and I cannot help but wonder if the Pope and NATO are one in the same in supporting this Liberal World Order as the European elites have worked hand in hand with Rome throughout history. Sure, Pope Leo is American by birth but he has long since sworn his fealty to The Vatican and I must remember to keep that in mind when reading the news and in the back of my mind I cannot help but wonder who might be orchestrating the anti-Trump media blitz.

On the other hand I read all sorts of information being pushed about President Trump being beholden to Israel and there is no doubt that he has some close ties to Israel especially through his son in law Jarred Kushner, going back to working in what was Italian Mafia controlled New York City when he was younger, and who knows who with the Jewish Mafia that might or might not have bailed him out after one of his bankruptcies. Evidently President Trump’s daughter has converted to Judaism and rumors that President Trump has as well if he ever had a spiritual base to begin with. Sure, I am uncomfortable with this and it is something that I have to keep an eye out for. One thing, however, I will say so far is the restraint that is being shown in not bombing the majority of Iran’s basic infrastructure is commendable. Another observation at least for today is the price of oil did not jumping quite as fast as I would have thought with the announcing of the US blockade of Iran.

Now, a week later, it appears that peace is about to break out in the Middle East yet again with negotiations underway. I do have to say that the price of oil is settling down a bit with West Texas Intermediate trading at $83.85 per barrel. I will not even mention Brent Crude price, which is higher because, to me, I cannot understand how the price of oil is determined by a group of entities that will not even allow the country that they are based in to develop their own oil. Therefore it should be irrelevant what they price oil at.

Of course, as if on time, reports are coming out of the Middle East that the IRGC and the US are still keeping tankers from transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Who is to blame for this? Who knows. Could it be elements in Iran that have nothing to do with the dealing that are responsible? Could be and I understand why I do not know but one thing for certain is Iran and the conflict is still a very fluid situation and elements within Iran are not interested in giving up their power which is not a big surprise to me. On top of that Keir Starmer and Emanuel Macron are supposedly spearheading a push to establish the peace in the Persian Gulf so the fact that elements of the IRGC are shutting the Hormuz again does not surprise me. In fact, I would not be surprised if Macron and Starmer are not somehow behind the events of the day considering how much of a threat to their power and rules based order the Americans represent. Shoot even Saudi Arabia buckled after Keir Starmer visited the kingdom. If one has any doubt about the power of London and Paris all one has to do is look at the Ukraine and how London has repeatedly torpedoed peace deals there.

Moving on to the looming midterm elections in my country I personally have to prepare for the fact that the Republican Party is still too fractured and or unwilling to mount any sort of reasonable campaign to keep control of either house of Congress. The ballot rigging is not being addressed and the requirement to ensure only US Citizens vote is not being addressed. It is so obvious that even many Republicans are benefiting from the ballot cheating and will not cut themselves off from the gravy train. They should be ashamed of themselves for not putting country over themselves but I wonder if many even have the capacity to be ashamed. I have heard it said that sociopaths tend to gravitate toward power centers and will do whatever it takes to gain and remain in power and it certainly seems to be the case in Washington DC.

Now, I could and probably should expound much more on the points that have rambled on about in the post but it is Spring and I have work to do. Actual physical labor tasks that help keep me from going crazy and losing focus as many in the media and the hall of power want me to do. They want me to focus on what they tell me to focus on instead of what I know that I need to focus on.

Random Musings on Current Events 4.3.2026 for Good Friday

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, raves and revelations in the media from behind the front lines of a purple state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants, revelations and gratitude’s in a sort of stream of conscious journal format and, yes, there may be some sarcasm thrown in.

Another week has gone by and the war for space in my head continues to rage. On one side I have those who are vehemently opposed to the President for whatever reason it may be, another side those who are vehemently in favor of the President no matter what he does, another side includes those who are saying nothing but typically have plenty to say, another side consists of what I have to deal with every day to make a living, and of course there is the side of me that strives to be Christian in my actions not just in faith and in words.

So, I will start out by acknowledging that today is Good Friday of the Holy Week and that this commemorates the Friday or Passover that Jesus Christ was crucified by the Roman’s of Jerusalem at the behest of the Jewish Pharisees and Sadducees. Men who ostensibly saw Jesus of Nazareth as a threat to their temporal power base only because there is no way, in my opinion, they had any spiritual currency in heaven that the Nazarene threatened. The Pharisees, Sadducees and Romans were nothing more than thugs who wielded threats, fear, and nothing more. What I find interesting, though it comes as no surprise, that the moral descendants of these men and women still roam and still seem to firmly hold the reigns of temporal powers on earth. What can I do but pray for them and move on.

Following up on last weeks comment regarding the price of oil being set by the British and Brent Crude oil pricing it seems that West Texas Intermediate oil has now surpassed Brent Crude in price. Evidently, this because oil from the United States can still be pumped and delivered whereas British crude cannot. Speaking of which, how come North Sea oil is not able to replace the loss of crude delivered through the Strait of Hormuz? Is because there is not enough capacity, the British and Europeans have relied on their bully boy (the United States) for so long that they no longer have the ability to project power, is it because they cannot rape the Russians for her energy or any number of self sabotaging actions over the preceding decades that have led to this moment? Yes, I am paying more for fuel but at least the money is being spent to producers in the United States and not being sent to self serving pompous perfumed princesses in London, Brussels or Riyadh. Now, I just hope the administration stays out of the way of the alternate energy industry in addition to allowing the fossil fuel industry to flourish. We have a golden opportunity for innovation as a result of necessity.

Pam Bondi is no longer the Attorney General of the United States and, of course, we will probably never really know why. I can speculate it is because her Department of Justice (DOJ) was not aggressive enough pursuing the release of the Epstein Files, the perpetrators of the Ukraine hoax against the President, and or any number of referrals out of Congress. What I can hope and pray for is that under the next Attorney General the DOJ will be more aggressive and at least make an attempt to balance the scales of Justicia.

General Randy A. George is out as the Army Chief of Staff and I sit back trying to make sense out of all the chatter around his forced early retirement and the manner in which it happened. First, the President has every right to fire a Chief of Staff in his duties as the Commander in Chief. There need not be anything more said. It happens and it will not be the last time it happens and all one has to do is ask the ghost of General Douglas MacArthur while the Korean War was raging. So all of this chatter about letting him go in the midst of military operations is bunk and noise. It happens so grow up and realize that this President, whether you like it or not has his own agenda, and is within his rights to fire and hire in the military within prescribed limits. Secondly, I learned that General George oversaw the reduction of the US Merchant Marine Preposition Forces, the reduction of Engineering units across the Army and Navy, and the Merchant Marines, and US Army watercraft funding. Considering the previous administration’s attitude towards the military and that General George stayed in the military and quite possibly made rank it would not surprise me if this is true. Regardless, he did not stand up to the Biden Administration’s unlawful COVID injection mandates and so it is really difficult for me to feel sorry for him or the other Generals who were fired this week if only for the COVID issue alone.

Lastly, the Conservative Constitutionalist would like wish everyone a blessed Good Friday, Holy Saturday and most especially Easter.

Random Musings on Current Events 3.28.2026

I watched the skies around me the past week and it has been a crisscross of trails left behind by airplanes. Some of the trails have gone literally from horizon to horizon and are definitely different than the condensate (con) trails left behind by aircraft in my youth. A time when jet engines were much less efficient and left behind all sorts of additional unburned fuel than the aircraft of today. Now I am reading that there has been an effort to change weather using aircraft and it makes me wonder. For years now it seems that the skies have been progressively getting dimmer and to what end? The science supporting global warming is dubious at best and most likely fraudulent and was started by scientists out of the UK. Geez, what could be wrong with this picture?

Senator Thune, why did you recess the Senate after passing the bill that was to finance the DHS? From my point of view it seems that you are unwilling to do what is necessary to stop Senator Schumer and the leftist Democrats that he purports to represent. I find it arrogant and hypocritical that while our soldiers, sailors, and airmen around the world will miss Easter with their families you and your fellow Senators will not miss or delay your planned Easter recess when arguably the DHS is charged with defending the homeland? Whether you agree with President Trump or not it does not matter. You are playing with people’s lives and now it will be two weeks before anything substantive happens. You and your fellow Senator’s actions are shameful.

Perhaps it is too early to say so but it appears the Trump administration is waging more than just a shooting war in the Middle East. It appears that an economic – information war is also being waged against European and, in particular, London based interests. Interests that have time and again used North American wealth to further their aims of imperial domination. I hope what I am reading is right and that President Trump could once and for all be devolving the US and European partnerships to ones that are more favorable to the US. It would be nice one day to be able to type, “RIP Lloyd’s of London and London’s control and speculative pricing of commodities.”

Lastly, I am still full of unease and a bit queasy over the lack of prosecutions surrounding the Jeffrey Epstein files etc. To me, the most heinous crimes that can be committed are those against children and Jeffrey Epstein appears to have facilitated much of this. Sure, the reason these crimes were facilitated was to gain leverage over powerful people but the root of this evil is a crime being committed against a child. What bothers me is we are not even seeing the vast network of financial funding, laundering, and or other financial facilitating that Jeffrey Epstein and his handler, Ghislaine Maxwell, were involved with. Why is it the rich and powerful can get away with any sort of crime yet I have to provide two forms of identification to my bank and any transaction over $10,000 dollars is reported to the government? I know the answer and it is as old as men but I thought the United States was supposed to try and right some of these ancient wrong way of doing business. That Justicia was to remain blind to whomever the transgressor might be?

I will say that I am encouraged that some of the fraud in California is being exposed to the light along with the fraud in Minnesota. I would certainly have to believe in the reports that fraud is much more expansive in California and I hope others see that this is just the tip of the iceberg. Quite honestly, after watching Eric Swalwell, who no doubt is at a minimum a sociopath along with California’s Attorney General and probably its Governor, this will not be an easy fight and a fight it will have to be. These people will drag this fight into the gutter and will use whatever means they have at their disposal to remain in power. These people are criminal thugs using Communism and Socialism to support their ends. It is time for the California citizens to be allowed to be woken up and retake their power. Retake and, quite honestly, make it so the current group of people in California behind and in front of the stage can never regain power in the state.

Random Musings on Current Events (Europe and Middle East) 3.20.2026

I was sitting down quietly this week thinking about the ongoing conflict in the Middle East between Iran and the US and Israel and had a couple of thoughts. First, why is it that the Straits of Hormuz and any energy that flows through this strait impact the cost of fuel in the United States? After all, the United States can sustain itself and even more so with the supposed new oil coming in from Venezuela. Then I started to think about the international price of oil (Brent Crude) being the benchmark from which all prices flow, evidently. So, I had to ask myself, why is it that the price of oil in the North Sea off the coast of Scotland and England, ironically, the benchmark? Furthermore, why is there an international setting of the price of oil in the first place and that it is based out of London?

In case you are wondering, I continued to sit and think and it dawned on me that the country’s most in peril with the lack of energy resource coming out of the Persian Gulf are Europe and Asia who need the energy way more than we do in the United States and the Western Hemisphere. The next logical step in my logic chain was to ask why is it that Europe is always using the Straits of Hormuz as a bully stick to get the United States to provide security for Europe’s oil supply? I have left out Asia in this equation because, let’s face it, Europe is the instigator in most of these situations and of the Europeans there is no doubt in my mind that London is behind much of it. Again, I have to ask why is the United States still beholden to a power that we supposedly fought for our independence from in the 1770’s, again in 1812, and that supported the Confederacy in the war of Southern Rebellion?

So again I ask, “Why has the United States born the burden keeping Middle Eastern oil lines open over the past several decades?” I am aware of the theory to not use US oil reserves but rather use those from other countries first but is it worth it? I am also aware how British Petroleum became what it is on the backs of Iran and Iran’s oil for a century. I am also aware how the Saudi’s have used their petrol dollars to create the virulent form of Islam known as Wahabism. Perhaps the question I should ask is what or who has been behind all of the machinations in the Middle East the most over the last century or more? The answer is, not the United States but rather Londan and Paris.

Getting back to the Middle East and current events there at the moment. I do not think the radical Islamic regime of Iran should have nuclear weapons and if this truly was imminent as has been presented, I can understand the need to stop this. However, Israelis to include Benjamin Netanyahu, have been saying Iran can make nuclear weapons for years if not decades in an effort to drag the United States into doing their bidding, Much as Europe is always dragging the United States into their wars to finish them and that the founding fathers of the US warned us about. Who knows, perhaps Tel Aviv and London are one in the same? What is ironic is that MI-6 drug the CIA into overthrowing a popularly elected Iranian leader to replace him with the Shah. Then, the Shah was deposed by the Ayatollahs who were educated in Paris. Is this evidence that either French and or English intelligence have been pulling strings in Iran for decades? It certainly seems plausible. So, Tel Aviv with deep London connections and Tehran with deep Paris connections go to war and the Strait of Hormuz get shut down. These are the same countries that have spawned the WEF and their stated goal of population reduction and that champion the use of environmental causes as one of the means to their ends. I have to wonder who really is going to benefit the most from this?

Speaking of games that ruling elites are playing it seems that the TSA employees have missed their second paychecks thanks to the Democratic Party’s refusal to fund the TSA. All this because of ICE which is already funded. I have to shake my head and say, “What?!?”. I really do not know what the Democrats expect to gain besides talking points pandering to their leftist base, ironically supported by the WEF, their minions, and various cut outs, because they are losing points in many other places. I for one am not a fan of the DHS’ forming on the heels of 9/11 and the subsequent passing of the Homeland Security Act. It was an act that essentially was already written to impose on constitutional freedoms and was just waiting for the right crisis to get passed. That being said, it is a reality now and it is going to start impacting our economy and already is with extended waiting times at airports etc. Somehow, I do not believe the Democrats really care. I can only hope that Congress can pass the law that repeals that members of Congress can bypass airport security screening lines.

I am starting to see another pattern emerging from the WEF and European elites and these are crisis of one form or another that typically start in the spring or the fall. The first ones that come to mind are COVID, the 1929 stock exchange crisis, the 1987 Black Monday stock crisis, 9/11, and like clockwork every spring another health scare of some sort. Heck, even the Spanish Flu outbreak started in March of 1918. It all just seems to be one large iteration of the same script and the vast majority of us are merely members of the audience. All one has to do is read the UK news outlets and this year it is meningitis.

Why is the Church of the Holy Sepulcher closed during Christianity’s most sacred season? I have read that the Dome of the Rock and David’s Tomb are open in Jerusalem’s Old City. Although this may change now that an Iranian missile actually struck the Old City yesterday. How come the most sacred place in all of Christianity is closed during its most holy time of the year but the Old City at large is still open? I would hope that there is not some sort of anti-Christian bias operating in Israel as American Christian men and women are fighting against Israel’s enemy in Iran. For now I will withhold judgement but it makes me wonder of the same forces are at work that shut an entire economy down during COVID to include churches but allowed big box stores to remain open? Could it be London or other intelligence organizations fomenting religious strife to achieve their ends as they have done for centuries? So many unanswered questions.

Random Musings on Current Events 3.13.2026

I did not even realize that it has been two weeks, yet again, since I rambled and ranted about the media and all that is happening or not happening. Here I go whether you like it or not because, quite frankly, I do not care.

I am going to start out with a question. Why is it that we do not have a Ft. Grant or a Ft. Sherman anymore in the United States? At least the names of Ft. Hood and Ft. Bragg no longer commemorate Confederate generals who, quite honestly, were losers in the War of Southern Rebellion. A rebellion led by Democrat Party slave holders who were supported by Great Britain. Last I checked US Grant and William Tecumseh Sherman kicked the stuffing out of both Hood and Bragg in the US Civil War which helped to maintain the union. Were Grant and Sherman perfect? No, absolutely not and I would guess that they would each admit that they were not.

My prayers go out to the souls of those killed and their families in the latest war. I also pray for those currently involved in the war and that the war is being fought for the right reasons.

I did not comment on President Trump’s State of the Union speech previously but my biggest take away is how obvious the members of Congress are puppets, especially on the Democrat side of the aisle. I watched the Democrats when President Trump challenged them with regards to who they support more, Americans or illegal aliens, and it was obvious some of the Democrats were uncomfortable remaining seated. However, they did not stand up. The only reason I can conclude is it did not fit the script given to them before the State of the Union address. I can only wonder who wrote the script ahead of time for them but the writers certainly did not expect the question that the President asked of them. It would be so refreshing to see members of Congress who are able and confident enough to stand on principal rather than from whom their next campaign’s contributions will be coming from. Quite honestly, I have to give the President and his team high praise for the work of art that the State of the Union was. Secondly, the “crazy” people occupying office and their backers need to be rooted out of public service if not for their incompetence than for their traitorous behavior towards the American people.

I learned the other day that Joe Biden’s FBI had opened four special privileged investigations under the Counter Intelligence code against President and citizen Donald J. Trump and the MAGA Movement Furthermore, a counter intelligence operation, as currently written in US Code, allows for extreme measures against the subject of a counter intelligence operation. In other words, it is classified, it circumvents the constitution, and pretty much allows for whatever it takes to destroy the subject of said operation. Hence, we have the Russia Collusion Hoax, Mira Lago, the roundup of January 6^th protesters, and who knows what else up to including, possibly, the assassination attempts on President Trump. These laws must be changed and those who participated in the obvious political weaponization of these laws must be brought to light even if they cannot be legally prosecuted.

This brings up another subject and that is the overuse of security classifications by the US Government. It has become so easy to issue classifications so much that everything becomes classified and unable to be scrutinized by any nationals of the united states. In and of itself it is cumbersome but what becomes nefarious is when the classifications are used, much like the FBI and its operations run against President Trump, for political reasons and or other reasons suited to one’s ambitions.

Lastly, how come the SAVE Act is stalling in the US Senate? Once again, I have to show identification to get a job, drive a car unless I am an illegal in California, buy a house, open a bank account and any number of other activities. Yet, I do not need to show identification or show up in person to vote? I will say that I am glad that Republicans narrowly control both houses of Congress but come on Republicans. Have you guys been getting elected fraudulently as well? How come you are holding up and not passing the SAVE Act? If you are trying to attach a bunch of garbage to the bill stop it and just pass the bill. Quit listening to you donors and if it means you do not get reelected because you lose your donors, so what? Grow a spine like the members of our military who are serving in the Middle East right now have and do what is right. Be an American for goodness sakes.

Random Musings on Current Events 2.27.2026

I listened to a bit of what the US Chamber of Commerce has become and more specifically that it has become a tool for global elites. I guess at one time it supported US small businesses but that is no longer the case. It has supported every globalist led initiative going back decades to include granting China most favorable nation status. Quite honestly, I have to say now that I believe the US Chamber of Commerce is an enemy of the United States and a tool of the Elites.

I am not concerned about the Supreme Court ruling on the protective tariffs in the way that Trump initially applied them. I am not too concerned because he will continue to do so in other ways and as he mentioned in his Statue of Union speech many agreements are already in place and will most likely not changed. Now, however, I can see people within the US are pushing the Trump administration to refund tariffs based on the Supreme Court ruling. These people do care a whit about me and their masters are obviously to the global elites.

I had to laugh when I read that Britain’s “The Economist” had an editorial piece saying President Trumps State of the Union (SOU) was unworthy. “Unworthy of what?” I had to ask myself. Unworthy or foreign bank, foreign intelligence and other anti US influences, perhaps. Memo to the editors of The Economist this is not Great Britain, which is not so great BTW, and why should I care a whit what you think about my President’s SOU?

On a serious note I read that Susan Rice is threatening corporations with payback and essentially black balling them for not supporting her pet projects and supporting President Trump and his administration’s policies. This is frightening because she is no longer hiding in the shadow and now, we know who in the Obama and Biden sphere who was calling the shots regarding delisting, debanking, and other DEI inspired corporate take downs. I now have to wonder what else in these two administrations she was orchestrating and just how anti American she truly is. I feel the bile rising from my stomach just reading her comments.

Congratulations to the US men’s and women’s hockey teams as well as to all the other athletes who were part of the Olympics.

Random Musings on Current Events 2.20.2026

I have watched some more Olympics and quite honestly, I am disgusted that the Russians are not allowed to compete in the games. This, obviously, a decision by western European elites who have pushed and pushed the bear and because of their own failures at governing have once again chosen the bear to be their bogey man. Their bogey man that is used to distract their constituents while they run Western Europe into the ground with their deindustrialization schemes and quite honestly are running Europe and her culture into oblivion. In the process they are trying to drag the United States into their self-created crisis of incompetence or self-immolation or cultural suicide.

I watched some more snowboarding events and it is without a doubt, in my mind, that the judges of this once American sport are now Europeans who judge according to political norms rather than based on how good a snow border is in a particular event.

On another note how can one not praise Alysa Liu and her family’s journey to become an American and to represent her country. Congratulations Ms. Liu on your accomplishment!

I am reading about Tucker Carlson being harassed by Israeli security services after an interview of the American Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee. According to Mr. Tucker the US ambassador did not investigate his version of the events but instead took the side of the Israelis or perhaps Benjamin Netanyahu. It sure smells of an Israeli information warfare operation with perhaps the collusion of the Ambassador being run on Mr. Carlson and his crew.

Oh and by the way I read today that Ambassador Huckabee is spouting the Netanyahu line today about Iran still enriching uranium and building up ballistic missiles and yada yada yada. OK, Mr. Netanyahu, I mean Ambassador Huckabee. We know that you are part of the old guard Republicans and I would imagine closely aligned with the Neocons led by Senator Graham. I still say that if Israel wants to attack Iran, then let them. Would I rather live in Israel than Iran, no doubt and my loyalties fall firmly in Alexander’s camp versus the Persians. However, I am sick and tired of Americans being the worlds police force while our treasure is plundered by old world oligarchs and this anti Iranian drumbeat is nothing but another ploy to embroil the United States in another war that only benefits old world European oligarchs. Go fight your own damn fight and do not ask me to bail you out or protect you.

I was always a bit dubious of the grounds that the Trump administration used to support their tariffs on foreign countries and it appears the Supreme Court’s majority felt the same. Quite honestly all I have to say is so what. The Trump administration either had contingency plans in place or developed them in this eventuality and has already replaced these overturn tariffs with others using different justifications which appear to be much tighter and legal. Shoot even Justice Kavanaugh spelled out some of this. It seems the tariffs which really are not as bad as some would lead us to believe are working after all and will continue to do so. The best of it is that the tariffs support actual industry in the United States and if it comes at the expense of the banking and financial industries all that come to mind for me to say is, “So what”.

This tragic Nancy Guthrie fiasco continues in Tucson, Arizona. Everyone knows that Tucson is in control of narco terrorists and the Sheriff is an empty suit in the mold of Gavin Newsom. One cannot help but wonder if the Guthrie kidnapping is a cartel connected operation gone bad and if the Pima County Arizona Sheriff is covering for it in some way? The evidence sure seems to be pointing more and more in the direction considering the Sheriff is not using any Federal assistance. It really is too bad for the Guthrie family and my prayers go out to them.

Random Musings on Current Events 2.13.2026

I am sitting down this morning to type my ramblings, rumblings, rants, revelations and gratitude’s this morning and seem to be drawing a blank. Throughout the course of the week I have listened to so much, read quite a bit and even had a couple of conversations and do you think that I can remember what I thought about typing this morning? Well, if you guessed not a thing then you guessed correctly. So, I believe I will start with what I am grateful for this February morning the day before St. Valentines Day.

First, I am grateful for the founding fathers of the United States of America and, in particular, George Washington, Alexander Hamilton and others of their group who could have set the United States of America down the path of a European monarchy but did not. Instead George Washington chose to live by the Constitution as best he could and Alexander Hamilton charted a course that expanded the new nation’s economy and actually paid of the Revolutionary War debt. George Washington even raised an army of sorts to stamp down the nascent rebellion fomented by Thomas Jefferson and his allies in an effort to preserve the Constitution and, therefore, the Union. I am grateful that I live in the country founded on these principles despite the effort of so many to subvert the ideals and the Constitution itself from within.

Speaking of which I am hearing all kinds of nonsense about President Trump making unconstitutional executive orders and etc. Perhaps he is but I have to say it is refreshing to see a true executive in the position of Chief Executive wield the power granted to him as a Chief Executive could and would. Now, it is up to the other two branches of government to step up to the plate and balance President Trump’s use of executive authority as the founders intended our government to work. That being said I would hope the judiciary does what the original intent was and that is to weigh the merits of the case against the Constitution and not try to legislate from the bench. The legislative branch, well, what can be said about that group of individuals that most often seem more interested in pandering to special interests and getting reelected than actually being law makers. When members of the legislative branch let special interests write legislation there is a big problem. Personally, I think it is time to resurrect the idea of term limits for Congress in order to avoid or at least limit the influence of special interests.

Speaking of a complete shirking and relinquishing of authority by Congress, I am learning of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 in which Congress gave away the power given to it by the Constitution and, quite honestly, I am not too thrilled with what I am learning. I think one of the biggest fallacies that I am coming to grips with is the so called independence of the Federal Reserve that I have been told about my whole life. Sure, the Federal Reserve is independent of Congress and the Executive but is it really independent? No, it is not independent of the super huge banks that underpin the Federal Reserve Bank and that are essentially its shareholders. It does not take a mental giant to see how the Federal Reserve and its policies have not been to support the US middle class, industrial class or any other class but the financial class over the decades and it is only getting worse. Perhaps it is time for Congress and or the Executive via the Department of Treasury to reel back some of the Constitutional powers into the hands specifically spelled out in the Constitution.

I have been watching the Olympics a little bit and have to say a certain European arrogance has taken over what was once a uniquely American sport. The sport of snowboarding is the sport I speak of and perhaps even short track speed skating. In particular, I watched the snowboard slalom finals yesterday and one of the Americans was disqualified despite what appeared to be incidental contact. This after what appeared to be groups of Europeans working in concert to keep him and others in other races out of the lead. Quite honestly, I would say Mr. Vedder, at least on the television, kept his composure, did not cuss, and just called it insane, which is good but I will say that I did a bit of cussing for him in the privacy of my own home. My question is how many of the judges are American now for snowboarding?

I just learned that the House has cleared the SAVE Act and it now moves to the Senate. Let’s us all hope and pray that the Senate Republicans can get out of their own ways to pass this bill. If it does not pass, it will be even clearer who of the Republicans are on the take and corrupted by the current voting process. Quite frankly I would like to see the act include banning mail in ballots but I suppose one cannot get too greedy at this moment. Oh, I would have added Democrats to the above sentences but I believe it is implicitly assumed that they are already on the take as the democrat party benefits most from the current voting system.

I have to throw a thought out there to see if it provokes any discussion. Has anyone else noticed that it is the same political party, Democratic Party, that fomented and got the Civil War going on in the 1800’s that is pushing for civil war again in the country? This is the party of slavery, civil war, now mass corruption and money laundering, and leftists. Geez, one would have to think that maybe they really do not support the Constitution.

I will close out my ramblings and rants with another moment of gratitude. I am grateful that my European ancestors left Europe to seek out, search, and build greater opportunities and freedoms that they never would have been afforded in their home lands. I am grateful that I have inherited the spark of industry, perseverance and courage that has been rewarded in the United States and that would never have been rewarded in Europe. Now, I can pray that we as Americans can wake up and quit sending our treasure our ideas and inventions to a class of freeloading parasites that seem to have remained in Europe and that will never be satisfied with what they have.

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, raves and revelations in the media from behind the front lines of a purple state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format and, yes, there may be some sarcasm thrown in.

OK, it has been two weeks and I will admit that they two weeks have been quite the swirl of personnel events and work that I will not get into detail about here in my ramblings and rumblings for privacy reasons. I am well aware for the tendency to censure, ostracize and generally stamp down those like me who dare to speak up for the Constitution and against those who subvert and otherwise ignore the Constitution both inside the US and outside the US.

Speaking of outside of the United States it is fascinating to watch Western Europe descend into fascism. The same fascism that they who rule purport to abhor as they institute draconian anti speech laws and Keir Starmer is delaying, yet again, local elections in the UK. It is any wonder that my European ancestors left Europe and is it any wonder the left behinds are still sheep being herded by their masters? Of course, who am I to talk as there is certainly a fair number of sheep in this country as well, expecting their master’s to take care of all their needs.

The midterm elections are looming ever large on the horizon and it is interesting to observe the rumblings out in the media and the reporting as such. Of course, the milk toast old school Bush Republicans are still at it in the Senate and House. It is so obvious that they do not care a whit about being in charge but only about maintaining their status quo which means keeping their comfortable cushy jobs intact. Trouble is if the Republicans are going to keep and maintain the Senate and House this fall, they need to amplify what President Trump is doing well and how they are going to be part of it. President Trump won the country in 2024 and it seems many of the Republicans did not get the memo about why and how the President won. I say this because it seems they are following the same script laid out for them by the Bushes decades ago.

It seems the Epstein files are a gift that just keeps on giving and now we are seeing more into what and who Jeffrey Epstein really was involved with. From Israel’s Mossad to JP Morgan, to politicians and media darlings. The guy really epitomized evil power at all levels to include his disdain for non-Zionist Jews. I really have to say there is no lower form of life than those who use children to achieve their power and political aims.

Speaking of those who will do whatever it takes to obtain and keep their power. I am learning about Lord Palmerston of the UK and some of what he did before and after Queen Victoria’s reign. It seems his lessons are still being followed and his name is being thrown around by Canada’s opposition leader and in the UK itself. This is the man who essentially invented the color revolution albeit under another name to counter the growing US influence around the world with its own form of economy and they are at it again, it appears.

It was pointed out to me that the Minneapolis, MN director of emergency management or whatever it is called that does the same function is a former USAID and served in a NGO doing work in many of the worlds garden spots such as Libya, Haiti, Iraq and others. Geez, if that resume does not scream deep state that has worked for three letter agencies in the past. We all know that the CIA was a tool set up and eventually co-opted by MI6 after WWII. Oops, did I just say that out loud. I probably better keep an eye out now because we all know that despite the CIA not legally entitled to work in the US, they certainly have surrogates at work in the US who appear to be running operations against the President and others who support him.
