Random Musings on Current Events 12.9.22 (a day late)

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.

Well, the Twitter files are being released and all the assumptions and suspicions of collusion between Federal Government law enforcement agencies are being shown to be true with hard evidence. I, for one, am outraged! More outraged at the apparent lack of outrage being shown by others in positions in power. Ask me if I expect anyone in the Department of Justice to investigate and bring charges? Are there enough in Congress that will change anything? I have not read a whiff about this in either of the local big city newspapers near me in either the news or editorial sections. Where is the outrage that government was telling a Big Tech firm what to block and shadow ban? Perhaps, the CIA, DHS, FBI, DOJ and or who knows what else funded the rise of Twitter? I am not sure really what to believe now except that I have lost full faith in confidence in the ability of my Federal Government’s current leadership in the DNI, CIA, FBI, DHS, DOJ, CDC, and the DOD’s senior leadership (i.e., Flag, General, SES level). What about Google, Amazon, the NY Times and other MSM outlets? What is most troubling is I am not sure what I can do, besides pray, about any of this.

I am happy that the military will no longer be requiring its soldiers, sailors, and airmen to get the experimental COVID mRNA injection. What still disturbs me and prevents me from supporting President Trump is his lack of apology or even acknowledging that there may have been a problem with the initial roll out of the jab. Is he beholden to Big Pharma, is he too stubborn to admit a mistake, or does he still believe it was the right thing to do? I will admit he made decisions under pressure and cannot fault him for the decisions he made. Someone had to make them but with a couple of years now passed and with a better understanding of the disease I would think it is OK to admit mistakes were made.

The Biden administration has traded a killer weapons dealer for a stoner basketball player while a US Marine still sits in a Russian prison. Seems equitable to me and if you detect sarcasm dripping from this it is.

I watched a bit of the Fox network’s news casts on Wednesday morning and they mentioned how the COVID mRNA experiment in the military was being ended. I call this a victory and yet on the newscast not one mention was made that the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA) portion was removed from the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). Hmm, do you think News Corp was not happy about this?

Once again, the MSM is blaming Trump for the loss of a Republican, Herschel Walker, in Georgia’s senate run off. Yawn, I say, put blame where blame is due. It is the RINO Republicans who would rather remain in the minority that are to blame. Yawn.

The JCPA has been added and now, deleted from the NDAA by Senator McConnell in a lame duck session! Wow, the bloated, corrupt, media really is pulling out all the stops to get this one through. They must really be hurting to use their big, corrupted gun Mitch McConnell to pull this stunt. All I can say is for them to do this sort of shenanigans to pass this bill it cannot be good for me. This is back room politics at its finest. It must tell one something when Amy Klobuchar supports it also.

What is up with Kanye West? This story has gone from messed up to reprehensible and now is entering the bizarre stage. Something is off.

Xi Jianping is visiting China. Interesting to say the least. It makes me mull over the fact that every reserve currency has failed and been replaced by another. Does this meeting mark the end of the US Dollar’s hegemony as the global reserve currency? Or is it the first, an intermediary, or a purely innocuous step in the future of currency in the world? Something tells me it is not an innocuous step with regards to the US Dollar.

Anthony Fauci has admitted that he talked to Mark Zuckerberg and that one of his daughters worked as a software engineer for Twitter. Now she works as a software engineer for a leftist organization the pushes vaccines.

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.

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.

It appears that the railway workers in the US have been dealt a bad hand by both the President, their Union leaders and now the US Congress. Here we are just emerging from a pandemic, fraudulent as it was, in which we were supposed to stay home when sick to learn that railway workers did not have sick leave. I had to ask myself, “What?” The railroads are a major component in the logistics backbone of this nation and its workers are not asking for much, at least on the surface. What is going on here that the politicians and union leaders are siding with the railway companies? Something stinks here and the rank and file appear to be getting screwed.

I just had a conversation in which I learned that Janet Yellen was on Stephen Colbert and she blamed the American public, writ large, for inflation. I heard this and did a double take as I could not believe what I heard. So, Secretary Yellen, you and others in government screwed us all with your ridiculous, overbearing, and unnecessary shutdowns for a man made virus that ostensibly was unleashed to implement legalized voter fraud, then you provided stimulus to help offset these shutdowns and now you are blaming us for inflation? So, you screwed us against our will and now you are going to tell us that we are to blame for the forcible screwing? That makes a lot of sense, not!

I am tired of the LGBTWRS movement. It is a waste of time, it is counterproductive, and I will not stand for it anymore. I do not support homosexuality, I will call people by gender specific pronouns whether they like it or do not like it, and I will not allow or support men competing in women’s sports because they are men no matter how they dress. The Socialist movement used women in the beginning and now the women are being kicked to the curb.

Speaking of cross dressing bald headed fools that somehow have gotten positions of leadership in the Biden administration. We have one who steals luggage and somehow plays it off that it was an accident. The guy is a criminal, his security clearance should be revoked, he should be fired without severance, and he should never be allowed a position of authority ever again. After all, I would probably have the same done to me just for typing the above paragraph.

Speaking of another cross dressing piece of work the Surgeon General should be given the option to either start dressing as the man that he is or resign. The person is a man, end of story. If you have a penis, you are a male whether you self-identify or not. I notice that you are unwilling to become a eunuch.

Arizona seems to be capitulating in the face of the most recent election steal while the White House throws a lavish state dinner in which celebrities and others are invited for French President Macron and his wife. It was a dinner to honor and stroke each other’s backs and egos for the globalist elites.

Still a very watered down response from the administration and MSM regarding the protests in China and in Iran. Of course, the Chinese have sent tanks in to quell some of these riots while some leaders in the west, for instance the CEO of Apple who was invited to the White House State Dinner, praises the government of China. This man and others like him do not respect me or my rights and I, for the record, never expect these types of people, if you want to call them people, to respect me or my rights.

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.

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.

Arizona is fighting their election results with multiple counties being unwilling to certify their elections. I believe this to be awesome and it appears there are true patriots in Arizona who are willing to stand up for their rights and freedoms. This is unlike their neighboring state of Nevada where the Republicans have once again merely rolled over and accepted the results of a fraudulent election in many cases. They conceded without nary a fight.

Hong Kong’s Cardinal Zenn has been convicted of pro-democracy support along with five others. So, just another example of what Communist Thugs will do to maintain their power and how words do hurt them. Like how Democrat Governors would shut down churches during the pandemic while allowing box stores to remain open. What was it the Democrat governors were afraid would be said by the clergy and others in houses of worship?

Does it surprise anyone that Pope Francis has said nary a word of support for the Cardinal or condemned the actions of the Hong Kong court? Why would it surprise anyone that an avowed Argentine socialist would not support a Cardinal who espouses and supports freedom in a city being forced by the government to submit to the will of the socialist dictatorship? One thing it seems socialists all over the world have in common is their belief and support of socialist dictatorships. After all, no one in their right minds, given all the information and realities of socialism, would ever willingly and freely choose socialism.

Is anyone else surprised that the mainstream media is not reporting one wit of the Foxconn riots in China? You know the factory that assembles iPhones and pays their workers a mere pittance of what their counterparts would make in Taiwan let alone in the United States.

More shootings in the US are being exaggerated up by the left as a reason for gun control. This despite the narratives being pushed by the mainstream media usually being proved false withing twenty four hours of their release. Blah blah blah and by the way you will not take my Second Amendment rights away from me.

I see the World Cup competition has started in Qatar with even a bit of drama scripted around Iran to give the requisite national drama. Personally, NBC has been advertising their coverage for months now and I do not plan to watch any of the globalist sponsored spectacles. I will, however, watch some American football and hockey. Soccer puts me to sleep and I will not contribute to NBC’s ratings, support any of the sponsors, nor will I give the globalist puppet masters any of my time.

God bless America, 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.

1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation

Proclamation

A National Thanksgiving

Whereas it is the duty of all nations acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and

Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me “to recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them and opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness;”

Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted; for the civil and religious liberty with which are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and , in general, for the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations, and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally, to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.

Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the 3d day of October, A.D. 1789.

Random Musings on Current Events 11.18.22

Once again it is time for 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.

Nancy Pelosi will not seek a leadership position in the new Congress. Wow, she actually kept her word. I wonder if it had something to do with the attack on her husband, her health, something else and or all the preceding? It will be interesting to see who wins the Democrat Party infighting to elect the next Speaker of the House. Will it be the Communists, Socialist, Fascist or just corrupt without any political ideology wing of the party?

Oh no! FTX has failed and with it $32 billion has disappeared!!! Disappeared into Democratic Party candidate coffers, disappeared into Bahamian real estate, disappeared into mysterious bank accounts, and since much of the value was speculative anyway it just vanished. It seems we live in a world where counter party risk seems increasingly, ahem, risky. Personally, I am going to sit back and watch the show on this one because its entertainment value seems to be increasing daily.

President Trump has announced his candidacy for another term of office. Although ostensibly I hope he wins I have my reservations. For instance, when will the irritating texts, emails, and phone calls start asking for money? This is when the RNC machine has not stopped asking me for donations for Hershel Walker’s campaign to finish out the most recent banana republic election that the RINO’s ensured will keep the establishment in power. Additionally, it will be an uphill battle for President Trump, no doubt, considering all the forces arrayed against him. After all, a worldwide pandemic was engineered to ensure he was not reelected in 2020. I say this because of all the mail in ballot laws passed which are patently corrupt during the plandemic, all churches and public gatherings were shut down in the name of public safety with Democratic states being the most militant in doing so, and President Trump could not have his rally’s, his strength, in the numbers he did the first time. I also have my reservations about President Trumps handling of the plandemic and his support for the experimental mRNA inoculations.

It certainly seems that Ron DeSantis has some favor with the establishment because he is being allowed to govern Florida as he sees fit and won his reelection easily which is a good thing, no doubt. However, as I was reminded by one of my favorite pod casters yesterday let us wait and see who the people are that surround him. If fact, isn’t that true of everyone? Trump surrounded himself with people who were part of the problem, no doubt.

Speaking of which, the results of this past election were not Trumps fault but rather, I would submit, it is the fault of the CCP/Globalist Controlled Uni Party. It is the fault of Mitch McConnell who has sold his party and country out to maintain power for what I am not sure. His not providing funding to Don Bolduc, Adam Laxalt, Blake Masters, and Kelly Tshibaka reeks of his willingness to ignore much of the populace of the United States, especially in those states they were running, and the Trump wing of the Republican because they would not take a knee to him. I commend these candidates despite their losses because unlike an inflexible loser who will destroy his party, stunt his party from changing to face the future, who appears willing to sell his country, and who is incapable of seeing the future in the name of maintaining his grip on power, these candidates have taken a stand. They have taken a stand for more than greed and going along to get along which is a course that has cost this country dearly and will continue until Mitch McConnell and those like him which include but are not limited to Nancy Pelosi, Mitt Romney, the Cheney’s, the Bushes, the Clinton’s, the Obama’s and the rest of the greedy power hungry group of globalists have been put out to pasture for good.

It certainly is interesting to read the news of celebrities and politicians reacting to the Musk takeover of Twitter. They are attacking Mr. Musk with the same fervor that they attacked Donald Trump and it is coming from the same quarter of society and the world. For instance, Kathy Griffin and German Socialists and others.

Before the election, the election office of Kari Lake was targeted by someone emailing suspicious envelopes with white powder and General Don Bolduc was physically assaulted and nary a peep in the mainstream media. Who really are the purveyors of violence in spreading fear? Maybe the answer is located somewhere in Chicago or someone who called Chicago home in their past.

So, George Soros’ Open Society Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and several Silicon Valley Tech Giants are funding an organization called Internews that claims to support “independent media.” In Hungary they are calling the branch of Internews “position media” and to me this provides further proof of the alliance between big tech, the US foreign intelligence apparatus and George Soros. Does anyone else ever wonder how Big Tech got so big so fast in a free market? To me, they had to have help and perhaps this is a chit being called in?

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 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.

Random Musings on Current Events 11.4.22

Once again it is time for some Random Musings On Current Events from the mind of a quiet, unassuming (at least in my own opinion) person observing the ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in the media from behind the lines in an increasingly blue state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format.

I am deeply disturbed but not surprised that the founders of True The Vote are currently sitting in jail in the week before the election. They must be over the target considering that they have been thrown in jail for speaking the truth and it is truth based on fact.

Evidently Pfizer, General Mills, and Audi are not going to advertise on Twitter anymore because of what Elon Musk is doing with his newly acquired acquisition. It seems I have three more companies to not spend money with. Of course, General Mills will be a challenge considering how many products they make but I will figure it out.

So, Paul Pelosi’s attached has seen a judge for the first time which he should as there was a crime committed and justice should be served. What struck me watching the news story is the artist rending of the proceeding shows the judge and all others in the court room wearing masks. You must be kidding me that in San Francisco they are still requiring people to wear the useless face diapers just like they required everyone but the Politburo to wear at the Chinese Communist Party Congress in the previous weeks. Is this further evidence of the influence the CCP and its communist sympathizers and supporters have in San Francisco?

Speaking of poorly run Democratically controlled cities I am thinking that I may create a domestic cities Fact Sheet that is similar to what the US State Department has for the countries in the world. Since I do not have the resources what I thought would be a good idea to start with is publishing a Travel Advisory Level ranking. The State Department’s Travel Advisory has four levels that range from 1-4 with 1 being the safest to 4 being the “Do Not Travel” category. Right now, I would place San Francisco and New York City in the 4 (Do Not Travel) category because they do not enforce laws and are essentially lawless cities. By the way Afghanistan is a country that currently has a Travel Advisory Level of 4 as an example.

Whoa whoa whoa!!! I just read that Las Vegas’ Operating Engineers Local 501 just reported Resort World to State of Nevada officials of ties to the Chinese Communist Party state owned military companies through its parent company, Malaysia based Genting Group. Why did they not report this to Federal Agencies whose task is. specifically spelled out in the United States Constitution, to protect the borders of the United States? Could it merely be an organizing stunt or could it be because the union has an inkling that the Federal Government and its agencies have been corrupted by the CCP?

Protesters got into the Supreme Court chambers this week shouting, “We will restore our freedom to choose! Women of America, Vote”. Pardon me? I must wonder if the Supreme Court justices felt threatened at any given time during these protests? Perhaps we should set up a November 2nd committee to investigate Nancy Pelosi and others who have called for the continuing protests against the Supreme Courts overturning of Roe vs. Wade?

It now appears that Liz Truss and England may have been responsible for the Nordstream Pipeline bombing. In my opinion, they may have been the tip of the spear but trust me it is a spear with a shaft that was thrown and that there were plenty of others who either turned a blind eye or helped the English materially in some way or another.

Bloomberg News has an article that we must get used to artificial intelligence (AI) and details some of how it will affect our lives moving forward. Personally, it appears that Bloomberg is pushing the AI narrative because they know the economies are being collapsed and seee it as a replacement for all the people that will soon be losing their lives through war, famine, and the ensuing disease that always is part of war and famine. It is as if they have read the tea leaves, so to speak, or perhaps they are part of the group engineering this war, famine and disease. Michael Bloomberg does almost have a sort of cyborg quality about him after all.

There is now documented evidence, evidently, that the FBI and DHS were colluding with Twitter, Google, and Facebook (Meta) to censor information on the Wuhan Virus, the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, Ukraine, Hunter Biden, George Floyd etc. to label information as misinformation. This is wrong at all levels and is in violation of the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. These people need to be held accountable up to and include criminal charges and restitution to those harmed by them being brought against them. They need to have all their rights to public discourse removed for life. They have failed this country. 

I am hearing that government, education, media and other officials who pushed the Wuhan Corona Virus narrative are asking for immunity from liability and amnesty for their actions (i.e., Jim Kramer, The Atlantic, New York Times, etc.). I am disgusted that after they plunged us all into an economic and life altering global shutdown, they now want immunity and an abdication of responsibility for the harm and devastation that they are responsible for? They will never get it from me and I would hope others will never give them a pass and that these globalist and petty dictators are held accountable for what appears to more and more be crimes against humanity. Let’s start with Anthony Fauci, Laurene Powell Jobs, Nancy Pelosi, Chris Cuomo, Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Murial Bowser, the United Nations, Facebook executives, Twitter executives, Google executives, Department of Defense officials, Big Pharma Execs etc.) n opportunist, an elitist, and a crony capitalist for sure but not a leftist. It appears the Pelosi compound has now been affected by the do nothing against crime group running San Francisco. A city which is on my no go list.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims of the twin suicide bombing attacks in Mogadishu, Somalia that killed more than 100 people and injured over 300. It has been a while since Islamic militants have staged this sort of attack. Perhaps there is something that people are trying to distract us from.

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 10.28.22

Once again it is time for some Random Musings On Current Events from the mind of a quiet, unassuming (at least in my own opinion) person observing the ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in the media from behind the lines in an increasingly blue state. I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format.

I have commented a few times on what at the time was Elon Musk’s bid to purchase Twitter. The purchase has been completed after many months and an iteration or two. Mr. Musk’s first action was to fire some top executives which is not surprising and common when a company purchases another company. Now, it will be interesting to see if the US intelligence agencies who actually run Twitter will allow Mr. Musk to open up the algorithms and restore the accounts who have been blacklisted for political reasons. I for one will still reserve my judgment for the time being as actions speak louder than words.

Where in the world is James Gordon Meek? Perhaps US Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco has the facts? Strange how there is a “lightning” FBI raid on his apartment that lasted approximately 10 minutes and it now appears his apartment is vacant. This all has happened to a man who is an Emmy Award winning reporter who happened to cover government wrongdoing. Nothing suspicious in the least about this is there considering he was purportedly working on a story of kickbacks from Ukraine to the US Democratic Party? Speaking of which I see this morning that the Biden administration is sending another $275 million to Ukraine. I wonder how much of that money will be going into the Democratic Party slush fund in the weeks before the midterm election? Do we live in the United States or Mexico where reporters are routinely killed or “disappeared” when they report against criminal drug cartels?

Speaking of the midterm elections. I see that President Obama is campaigning for some candidates. I would imagine as an ex-president that his appearance fees are astronomical. Perhaps that is the reason another $275 million is being sent to Ukraine.

I am so glad that I do not live in New York. I could not believe that the gubernatorial debate was held virtually. I saw this on a news report and nearly vomited. The Empire State has been reduced to rubble and run by a bunch of weak kneed corrupt globalist hacks evidently. Heaven forbids someone catches a sniffle by meeting other people in person. Get some fresh air!

Kanye “Ye” West has joined the club that includes Mel Gibson and probably did not even realize that he was applying for it at the time that he made his “anti-Semitic” remarks. I will confess that I did not listen to the entire context that his remarks were made withing so I will not say one way or the other if I believe them to be anti-Semitic. What I do know is that he has been judged by the court of public opinion and the court has ruled expeditiously and without hesitation. I am not even sure what to say about this other than he has the right to say whatever he wants under the US Constitution and at the same time others have the right to spend their money and support whoever they want under the US Constitution.

It appears Ben Shapiro has decided to admit that he was wrong about vaccine safety and effectiveness. I just hope for his sake that he is not too late to be jumping out of the rail car that few if any knew its destination. I, for one, am glad that I chose not to hop aboard that one.

So, Pfizer can produce a Wuhan Virus mRNA injection dose for $1.18, has sold these injections to the US Federal Government for $92 a dose and now will charge those with insurance $134 a dose. At the same time Pfizer is pushing mRNA boosters much like the flu injection is being pushed. Is this really about the wellbeing of humanity or about making money? It sure looks to me that it is about Pfizer paying off their $2 billion investment. What is more sinister is the media and federal agencies are in support of Pfizer’s plans. I wonder how much of that $2 billion investment includes payoffs?

Isn’t it interesting that Pfizer always knew it’s experimental mRNA injection never prevented the spread of the Wuhan Virus yet governments and businesses were forcing its citizens and employees to take the experimental injection in the name of protecting others? This sounds like a sham and, quite honestly, the beginnings of a criminal case of fraud. How come the Department of Justice is not investigating Pfizer? Is it because they are too busy going after journalists who expose government wrongdoing? Is it because they are going after a former President who was not a DC insider? Is it because they are building domestic terrorism cases against those who at worse committed misdemeanor trespassing on January 6th? Is it because they feel parents who stand up and question their local school boards about curriculum that their children are being taught to?

I have been thinking about Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta World and have to say that I do not like the thought of it. Personally, I would rather be able to go outside, get my hands dirty, feel the sunshine on my skin and even squint my eyes when it shines directly on me. I really do not see how losing myself in a digital world can be healthy. In fact, it reminds me a bit too much of the Matrix and becoming a cyborg or avatar in Mark Zuckerberg’s matrix certainly does not sound appealing. I think I will take a break after writing and go for a real walk in the real outside under the real sun and feel my legs step one in front of the other. Oh, I might even say hello to a neighbor or two using my real vocal cords along the way. I also do not really care if some pale skinned, bug eating attenuate calls me a troglodyte either.

So, realistically Google controls nearly 96-98% of the searches made on the internet. I suppose this site will never show up in any of the searches one may carry out on Google which is fine with me. I will just have to work harder and ignore Google. Why waste my time, especially when there is fresh air and sunshine to enjoy?

I researched the members of my state’s board that was stood up during the Wuhan Virus sham shutdown and learned that not one member of clergy was on the board. No wonder the churches were not allowed to remain open while big box and other “connected” businesses were allowed to either remain open or open early.

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.

Electric Grid Basics

I have been sitting quiet for the last year or so watching, listening, and reading all the news about energy, energy production, and specifically electric power production. I have a bit of experience in electric power production and thought I would share a bit of what I know.

Electricity in the United States and in other parts of the world is distributed to end users through what is called “the grid” or “distribution grid”. The grid in turn is supplied electricity by electric power producers who own and operate generators. These generators come in all sorts of sizes and shapes and are fueled using fossil fuels, nuclear fusion, and even alternative energy sources. Many do not know but the United States is divided into more than one “grid” that operate independently of each other much as the United States grid is separate from Europe’s grid, Japan’s grin, China’s grid, etc.

To maintain these grids a certain voltage must always be maintained on the grid and if one does not understand how electricity works, voltage (electric potential) is what drives electricity flow much as pressure from a pump or change in elevation drives water, oil or any other liquid flow.

Generators are the pumps of electricity and are what create the voltage or potential to drive current flow through power transmission lines, grid, to our houses and business. The generators create this voltage in different ways as some generators rotate in the case of alternating current generators and some create direct current voltage as in the case of solar panels, for instance. For us to plug in our computers, run our appliances, and turn on our lights this voltage is converted to electric current when these items are turned on. However, when the switches are moved to turn all these items on there is a drop in voltage (see ohms law). To maintain voltage on the grid when the demand for all these appliances, computers, motors, and lights the managers of the grid must ensure there is sufficient power generation to maintain this voltage on the grid. In other words, with higher demand on the grid the managers of the grid must ensure more generators are supplying the grid.

For the operators of the grids to ensure there is sufficient generation capacity to make up for all the switches being flipped they must maintain a certain amount of excess generation is supplying the grid at any given time to support the voltage on the grid. This excess generation must be available because the voltage drops due to increases in current flow are seen immediately and ripple through the grid in fractions of seconds. After more than a century of operating grids there has developed a science with tried and true methods to operating grids in relatively efficient ways. For instance, the operators of the grids can usually predict when electricity demand will peak and fall. For instance, it is well known that in the peak of summer heat air conditioner usage will be at its highest and so therefore maximum generation will be required. Thus, the grid operators have contracts in place and in some cases own peak generation capabilities that they can turn on or off depending on what the grid demands are.

This leads me to explain that there are two broad terms used in the electric power generation world and this is base load generation and peak load generation.  Base load generation is that “base” of power that is always going to be used no matter what. For instance, in our house’s refrigerators, some appliances always have lights shining and are never turned off and so this would be considered a base load demand. Extending these demands to tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of houses to include businesses whose security systems, many computer servers, and lights that are always on this becomes what is considered base load electricity demand. Peak load demand, in turn, happens during those times of the year or ay when more air conditioners, lights, appliances etc. are being used as previously mentioned.

The best base load generators are the big natural gas, coal, and oil fired facilities in addition in the alternative/renewable energy world geothermal and hydroelectric electric power production are also considered base load power generation sources. I will admit, however, there is an argument to make that hydroelectric being susceptible to droughts may not be considered a base load power source. To be considered a base load facility the facilities must be capable of generating power twenty four hours a day seven days a week. Solar and wind power cannot provide base load power because they are subject to the vagaries of weather on a minute by minute basis potentially. Wind does not always blow and the sun does not shine at night or as strongly when it is cloudy, for instance. Solar is great as a peak power supplement as there is a great increased use of air conditioners in the hot summer months when the sun is shining at its highest and typically when there is not too much cloud cover. We all must understand that solar and wind cannot be considered a base load generation capability but for some reason are touted as the best alternative energy sources or at least get the best press. Geothermal power production and hydroelectric power production are true base load sources. In fact, geothermal power production is the only alternative power production source completely independent of weather and weather patterns currently generating electricity at the commercial level that I know of.

This is a much more complicated system obviously but this is it in essence. It is more complicated as no base load facility can run indefinitely without maintenance shutdowns, the grid is quite complicated with series of transformers and protections throughout to change voltages up to down for the transfer of power to end users. In fact, in some cases there is a conversion of direct current generation to alternating current in the case of solar power generation and in some cases alternate current to direct current. Also, no one company owns the whole of electricity generation and delivery with small independent power producers to large utility generators and even different business owning the transmissions lines from the generators and everything in between. With the many interests there are also contractual challenges, natural resource supply, and regulatory issues adding yet more layers of complexity.

Random Musings on Current Events 10.21.22

Once again it is time for some Random Musings On Current Events from the mind of a quiet, unassuming (at least in my own opinion) person observing the ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in the media from behind the lines in an increasingly blue state in a sort of journal format.

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?

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.
