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.
The first thing that I have to say is that I flew my United States war flag at half mast this morning up until noon in observance of those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in defense of this great nation and ideals that were laid out by our founding fathers. Ideals espoused in the US Constitution and the principals of common law and equity. Not to defend the European and old world ways of life that still exist in Europe and in most other places of the world but for America.
I read reports of a possible settlement between the US and Iran in which Iran will agree to give up its enriched uranium and not pursue any further weapons development. I think this is great. It now will be interesting to see who tries to break the tentative deal up and if they are successful doing so. Great Britain is purportedly agreeing to assist with clearing the strait of mines which on the surface is great considered their long and sordid history of pitting sides off against each other and fomenting forever wars going back centuries. Perhaps, Lloyd’s of London has burned through some of their savings and needs to turn their toll, pardon me, insurance cash flow machine back on as they have?
Speaking of prayers and those wronged by the old world way of doing business and law enforcement I learned of the killing of Bryan Malinowski in Little Rock Arkansas a couple of years ago. Evidently, the US Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms served a search warrant at 6 am during a cold March morning in full tactical gear on Mr. Malinowski who was asleep at the time with his wife. According to the story I heard they knocked on his door once, waited approximately 60 seconds and proceeded to knock he and his wife’s front door in and proceeded a full tactical entry into their house. In the process Mr. Malinowski responded by grabbing his weapon and fired at the entering agents not knowing who was entering his house. He fired a shot or two at the intruders and the agents fired a bullet into Mr. Malinowski’s head which lead to his death. Of course, I have only heard one side of the story but on the surface it is chilling to me as I believe it should be to anyone. If someone is breaking into my house and rousing me out of sleep I cannot honestly say how I would react especially knowing how criminals work and knowing that I may have only seconds to protect my loved ones. On the surface, at least, it appears that Mr. Malinowski was a lawful peace abiding citizen and if they would have given him time would have, most likely, allowed them entry into his house. Something stinks about this whole operation and I pray the full truth sees the light of day.
I have read the sensationalized news regarding the latest strain of Ebola and Hantavirus with a great deal of cynicism. Especially, considering the first news outlets to latch onto and push the health scares the most were news outlets in the UK. Now the US major main stream outlets have jumped on the band wagon and are pushing these scares. It certainly seems very similar to what was pushed at the beginning of COVID and the timing could not be more similar either. Only this time it is being pushed prior to the US mid term elections instead of a Presidential elections. Elections that matter to how President Trump can continue with his agenda. An agenda that certainly is less supportive of the globalist status quo.
I learned that when the Golden Gate Bridge was being sold to residents of San Francisco and Marin County back in the early nineteen hundreds the toll was only going to be put in place until the bridge was paid off. Of course the bridge was paid off, the tolls were never removed and, in fact, the tolls just keep going up and up and up. Considering the bridge was completed in 1937 and the original bonds were paid off in 1971, 41 years after the bonds were approved. Of course, the tolls remained and the original entity, The Golden Gate Bridge and Highway District, created to finance and build the bridge remains in place. What I find interesting is that during the ensuing years from the district’s founding the Frankist (leftist communist) movement took root in Berkeley, just east of the Golden Gate on the San Francisco Bay and flourished throughout the state of California to include infiltrating and expanding the University of California system to preach and indoctrinate first California’s youth and ultimately serving as launching pads to indoctrinate other state’s and country’s youth in the Frankist brand of Marxism. One can only put dots together in one’s mind why the tolls have gone up at a greater rate than inflation and District is still in business. Even if one were to adjust tolls for inflation they still are as much as they were when the bridge was built. There is no way maintenance costs, adjusted for inflation, meet the original costs of the structure.
This leads me to the last point that I am thinking about on this sacred and holy Memorial Day and my thoughts still are on the Golden State. I am reading about Governor Newsom using his position of authority to encourage Californians not to use Chevron gasoline because Chevron stations are blaming Sacramento and its leadership, which has been fully trained and indoctrinated in the Frankist school of Marxism, for the high cost of gasoline in California. Blame that rightfully should be placed on Sacramento and its insatiable greed for ever more taxes to feed the California Frankist corruption machine at the expense of the vast majority of California citizens. What exactly do the citizens of California get for the money that lines the coffers of the Newsom’s, Pelosi’s, Browns, Getty’s and small cadre of others but additionally drug addicts in stupors on her cities streets, the stench of urine emanating from once great cities homeless encampments, the flight of middle class wage supporting industries from her cities, the crumbling of her roadways outside of her largest cities, and the destruction of once thriving small communities that supported logging, farming, and other middle class wage paying jobs? What one gets is a dystopian third world Marxist hell hole that enriches an increasingly smaller number of families is what one gets.
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.
