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 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.
What is up with Matt Gaetz? I wonder if he was duped by the establishment, deep state Republicans to give up his House seat only to yank the rug out from underneath him or is he really guilty of what he is being investigated for? Trouble is my cynicism for Washington D.C. has me believing the former rather than the later. However, the later definitely could be within the realm of possibility considering all of the dirty nasty evil that is dealt out in the halls of power.
It seems the dogs of war have not skipped a beat after the elections and especially before the inauguration of DJT. President Biden has authorized short range ballistic missile and anti-personnel mine use manufactured in the U.S. by the Ukrainians against Russia!? You have got to be joking me. One thing that I can say for certain is Vladimir Putin is not just a talker but a doer as well. These arrogant, pompous perfumed princes in D.C. and the west keep poking the bear and the outcome is not going to be good. I pray yet again that cooler heads will prevail because the specter of nuclear war is not a good one for anybody. A better idea would be to focus on the threats pouring across the US southern border which is much closer to home. Kind of like Vladimir Putin is focusing on his backyard.
Speaking of incompetent civilian leadership of the military. It seems Lloyd Austin is already defending the generals and admirals who are pushing DEI and who, undoubtedly pushed the untested jab on US military members. I certainly hope that there is a purge of general and flag officers who put their jobs and careers ahead of the health of those they lead and the defense of the United States.
I read that the San Jose State University woman’s volleyball team could win their conference championship by default because of the teams who refuse to play against San Jose State. Once again, I hope and pray that the judge in Denver will rule against San Jose letting a transgender player be on its woman’s volleyball team. A man who is shattering all sorts of female records in the sport. Quite honestly, San Jose should have to forfeit all of the games that this person has played in and all of the games that it has won by forfeit because other teams refused to play it. XX should compete against XX and XY should compete against XY.
I have not had much to say about Speaker Johnson but I do have to give him credit for drawing the line on bathrooms in the nation’s Capital. At least in the Capitol it will be XX using XX bathrooms and XY using XY bathrooms.
Laken Riley’s killer has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole which, to me, is the least of which that should have happened to him. Especially considering that he will now be in prison and probably join a gang and spread his poisonous evil to those that will eventually get out of prison and take the poisonous even with them. I suppose it is not my place to judge but it certainly makes me wonder.
Google might have to sell Chrome by order of the DOJ. So much is wrapped up in this that it is hard to sort out the wheat from the chaff. I for one think Google has way too much power and much of this power is thanks to government bureaucrats and probably even some intelligence agencies. Is this the solution? I do not know because I am certain the government officials, in whatever capacity they are in, will not be held accountable. However, I also know that Google needs to be shown for what it is and their leadership in no way puts constitutional rights above the pursuit of their own power and wealth. As I said tough to sort this matter out.
Speaking of tech behemoths, what about Amazon? Talk about a company with a seemingly insatiable lust for power and wealth. Amazon is everywhere.
Oh geez, Ellen DeGeneres has fled to England after the election of DJT. I hope you have fun in England Ellen and I am so sure it will be so much better for you there. I will not waste any more time on that subject.
Lastly, I for one hope the incoming administration leaves Jerome Powell mostly alone. If the administration is going to do anything it would be to eliminate the Federal Reserve completely which it will not do. So, just leave him alone and focus on the border, freedom of speech, and gutting the Federal bureaucracies to include the rot at the top of the military.
God bless America and all her citizens and residents, no matter whether they are enemies, not enemies or somewhere between. Additionally, forgive me my trespasses as I forgive those who trespass against me.
