Random Musings on Current Events 1.20.23

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 11.18.22

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?

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?

Ukrainian President Zelensky claims Russia fired deliberately, purposefully at ordinary houses. Ok, this is war and atrocities happen undoubtedly. However, I do not know the full story. Perhaps the “ordinary house” was being used to shoot at Russian troops? Perhaps, it really was not really an ordinary house. President Zelensky, you messed up when you listened to your CIA handlers and allowed a war to happen between you and your next door neighbor who happens to be a big brother that you do not get along with. If you expect the United States to be able to support you just ask Poland what happened to them when England promised to support them before WWII.

Netherlands farmer’s revolt over what I have heard are nitrogen emissions or pollution or something else about nitrogen. This, to me, does not make sense considering crops require nitrogen to grow and our atmosphere comprises something in the neighborhood of 89% nitrogen. What really is at play here? Who is behind these “environmental” regulations and what is their real end game? Something is a foot here and it seems anti life and as if someone or something is trying to really disrupt the world’s food sources. I cannot help but think about how Stalin starved the Ukrainians and how the English starved the Irish. It would not be the first time food has been used as a weapon for certain.

I read that the price of gold and silver are falling because the price of the dollar is strengthening. This because there is “…flight from the Euro and Yen to the dollar”. So let me think about this for a New York second. People are dropping fiat currencies and fleeing to another fiat currency because that particular fiat currency is the world reserve currency because Saudi Arabia has, up to this point, only traded its oil in this particular fiat currency. Saudi Arabia’s crown prince has stated that Saudi Arabia should be willing to trade its oil in other currencies to “balance” the world’s economic powers or something to that affect. Uh oh, how long will the paper gold and silver traders be able to keep their charade up? It is becoming apparent to me that, perhaps, the gold and silver trader’s paper could be fiat at this point as well.

China has an increase in COVID outbreaks leading to shutdowns at the same time banks are beginning to fail in China. Is this coincidental or are they related? Call me cynical but I would not be the least bit surprised that a power hungry elite controlling the largest population on earth would use a virus to imprison their people as the specter of bank failures and increasing riots loom. If they had free and fair elections, I would think that they might even use a virus to rig the elections but I am not the least bit cynical.

Interesting that Canada is allowing Russia’s Siemens repaired turbine be returned to Russia. A turbine that Russia owns by the way. I guess Canada blinked because of the threat of Europe freezing this winter. I wonder how many people realize that Siemens Canada was once a Westinghouse facility, an American company, that built turbines?

NPR Tweets about Shinzo Abe’s death and called him an ultra-nationalist. This while President Obama, woops, I mean President Biden used his death as a platform to call for gun control. These people have no respect for life or death.

I learned a new term this week and it is called Dragflation and it means inflation rises while an economy declines. It seems some are predicting just this for the US and other post COVID economies around the world.

Rest in Peace Ivana Trump and my condolences to your family.

God bless America both to those who are patriots, those who are enemies and to those who fall somewhere in between.

Random Musings on Current Events 6.17.22

Once again it is time for some Random Musings On Current Events from the mind of a quiet, unassuming (at least in my own opinion) person observing the ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in the media. Additionally, I know, and it has been proven, that Twitter and Facebook would censor what I have to say so I will say what I feel the need to say in this medium. However, with Elon Musk purchasing Twitter perhaps I will have to take Twitter out of my introduction but not just yet. Time will tell I and for that reason I will not remove Twitter just yet from my Random Musings On Current Events introductory paragraph.

I was remembering an incident in my childhood the other day and it was of my playing a game called Blitzkrieg with a friend at his house after school. Blitzkrieg is a board game in which odds are placed on different pieces depending upon what the piece represents (for example armored division, infantry division, etc.), dice need to be rolled to determine battle outcomes, and the objective, like the name of the game implies, is to use tanks and infantry to overtake your opponent’s territory. Needless to say, one could spend a fair amount of time just reading the instructions to learn the intricacies of ensuring the dice are rolled right to ensure the alignment of odds remained objective and as realistic as possible. Well, my friend, who did not remain my friend for too much longer, did not want me to read the instructions. We would play for a while using the rules as he explained them until I began to get the upper hand and then would “remember” or read another subtly in the rules that gave him the advantage. This went on for a little while until I had to go home for dinner or something like that. I later asked for and got the same game for Christmas and learned that he had changed several rules to his advantage and that playing the game, according to the rules, was much different and it is something that I have never forgotten. Later this same kid grew up, went to work for former Senate Leader Harry Reid in Washington D.C. and has permanently settled in the greater Washington DC area working for or as a lobbyist. It seems like the perfect place for an individual who does not want others to know the rules and who arbitrarily changes the rules to their advantage with no regard for me but in fact to ensure the rules are changed contrary to my benefit.

The S&P 500 is officially in bear market territory, the CPI is at 8.6%, crypto currencies are in the midst of a huge sell off, there has evidently been a run on banks in rural China and all I can do is yawn. So what? Gasoline is now over $6 per gallon and unlike Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and others in New York and San Francisco, I do not have public transportation available to me. I must fill my vehicle up to participate in the economy. This means less money to spend on other items and less time to listen and watch media drivel because I am having to work more and work harder to make dollars stretch just to make ends meet.

I heard someone talking about how this is the worst inflation since 1981 and I had to yawn yet again. This inflation may be much worse than 1981 because the basket of goods used to determine the CPI has changed since 1981. However, after a cursory look at the Bureau of Labor Statistics it is difficult to determine what specifically is in each basket of goods. Additionally, there is the CPI, the core CPI and the core core CPI to further cloud my research. Looking at a summary of changes page on the website it states what categories of the CPI were changed over the years but it provides no specifics. In my line of work, I want and must have specifics, but I do not have the time to dig any deeper into the CPI calculations currently. When something is this difficult to tease out, I must wonder if they are hiding something? For instance, I have heard, that in 1981 the basket of goods used to determine the widely reported CPI included food and gasoline which it does not now. I this is true I know the price of gasoline has doubled in the last year. Using real simple math, not the fancy equations that economists are so fond of that further refine numbers, there has been a 100% increase in gasoline price this past year and food has gone up at least 25% in this past year. Applying these numbers, I would have to say the inflation rate must be near 20% if food and fuel were included in the CPI. If food and fuel were used in the basket of goods in 1981, I then must ask myself, “Why are food and fuel not used in the CPI’s basket of goods today? Why hasn’t the Federal Reserve jacked up interest rates in the same manner that Paul Volcker did in 1981? Why are the rules not being told to me and why are they selectively being changed and why has everyone fallen for the fraudulent Keynesian Economic theory?” So, I have concluded that the currency is being debased to pay for debt and because the US Dollar is the world’s reserve currency the globalists in the US have been able to get away with it. Additionally, I think the numbers are being manipulated to make it appear not as bad as it really is for the propagandist in the press to disseminate.

It is election season and advertisements are being mailed to me and commercials are running nonstop on television when I get a minute to watch my favorite baseball team’s game. What amazes me is what is printed or said in these advertisements is nothing substantial and or substantive. I know this has been going on for a long time but, for some reason, I feel like typing about this now. It just tells me how corrupt the election process is that it does not matter what a candidate stands for but how much money they must essentially hypnotize enough people into voting for them. The latest nonsense I read in the media involves one of the Republican’s more viable threats to the Nancy Pelosi machine backed Governor of my state. This news conveniently came out on the day of my state’s primary election. The nonsense involves a story published in the Democrat controlled media propagandists that the candidate made an election related phone call or phone calls using the office phone while at work in his previously elected position. OK, this is probably not the best thing nor an ethical thing for him to have done and he should be fined or whatever but in the big picture, really? Who cares? This allegation comes midst rumors of Nancy Pelosi’s (or perhaps Harry Reid’s) Democrat machine secretly funding of a fringe Trump supporting group that mysteriously formed out of nowhere that advertised against this Republican challenger to Grandma Nancy’s man in which the candidate was portrayed as not “Make America Great” enough. This would not surprise me considering the Harry Reid machine did just the same to get himself re-elected many years ago causing a Republican Candidate to win a Senatorial Primary knowing that the candidate could never win the general election. Additionally, the current Governor signed an election reform bill allowing mail in ballots on a Sunday evening during the pandemic passed by a Legislature late on the preceding Friday night that did not meet in person. Hmm, I ask myself, what should I believe and who is calling who unethical?

A storm raked where I live this past weekend with winds in excess of fifty miles per hour. Tree limbs fell and not a word in the press. If something like this happened in the eastern United States there would be at least a day or two of headlines and an emergency declaration made with at least a hundred million dollars pledged to affected state or states. Of course, this happens all the time here and we know and accept this is something that has to be dealt with several times a year and we survive without the government’s help. Why is it that other parts of the country cannot accept and deal with their own problems without going to the federal government for help?

Speaking of which, installed President Biden visited New Mexico to address the Federal Government started wildfires that are raging across New Mexico. I drove through this part of the country mere months ago and it was gorgeous but tinder dry. What mental giants conceived of starting a controlled burn in this area knowing a storm was coming? Oh, wait a minute, they are probably related to the same mental giants in the area near where I live that had a controlled burn several years ago and decided not to post fire watches when a storm was approaching. That fire erupted into an inferno that destroyed multiple homes, threatened mine along with the whole neighborhood, but fortunately was extinguished by the rain that eventually arrived in the storm after nearly twelve hours of dry winds. Evidently the New Mexican mental giants are less mentally gifted than their relatives in my neck of the woods because they chose the spring to start their fires when the likelihood of moisture in the storm is far less than in the fall as was the case in the fire near my home. What also amazes me is there is so much weather information out there to see what sort of weather might be coming in. How can mistakes like these be made? How are people in these agency’s being vetted for positions of responsibility and authority? Evidently, it has nothing to do with competence because these types of mistakes are unacceptable and not only should the people making these bad decisions be fired but so should the people who gave these people the authority to make these sorts of decisions. It does not take a rocket scientist to read and understand a weather forecast. Although now that I made this comment the National Weather Service will have the attention of the left wing lunatics focused their way so that only politically connected can be promoted if it has not already begun. It seems the cancer of forest neglect and mismanagement has now metastasized well beyond the borders of California.

In closing I have only one thing to say, “God bless America and I mean God bless to all who are in this country; both to those who are patriots, those who are enemies and to those who fall somewhere in between.”

The Sowing of Chaos

I talked with my spouse and some of her family members this past weekend and found myself a bit resigned to what they were saying. I think what I struggled with is they seem really good at regurgitating what they have been told by whatever media source it is that they are listening to. One, obviously, was listening to a lot of Fox News, another to some alternative news sites and others who obviously were listening to other legacy news sources. I think what led to my sense of feeling resigned is how unoriginal their thinking and reasoning processes were and the lack of solutions to the problems they are being fed by the propaganda press. I asked them to take their listening and mental processing a step further, but I am not sure they heard me. A step further than just being able to regurgitate what is being told to them, to think about what the news means to them, at the same time to ask themselves if what is being reported important to them and why might the media claim it to be important? Again, I am not sure if they heard me, but it certainly helped me to clarify my thinking and thought processes.

For example, the other morning, sitting at the breakfast table, my spouse and I had a conversation about the transgender movement and who is doing what and what is being said by whom, according to our reading, listening, and watching. I was able to articulate, perhaps for the first time, in our conversation that this is all noise to me. It is noise that appears to be meant to distract me from something. What specifically that something is I do not know. However, when someone tries to tell me that a man can call himself a woman and compete against women despite still having a viable penis, testicles and who still produces testosterone at levels that a man produces testosterone is a woman, I must wonder. In fact, if this person has not had a change in sex before puberty they would still be at an advantage, in the case of a male transitioning to female, because their musculature and bone structures would have developed as a male. Sure, they could take drugs to reduce the amount of testosterone in their systems at that time, but they still would have the foundational advantage of a male in a competitive female sports competition. So much for Title IX and woman’s rights and another example of how the left will turn on their own when it no longer suits their goals.

As one can see, just in this small diatribe of mine, I have already wasted my readers and my time reading and writing a paragraph on a subject that should not even be an issue. Outside of the rare instance in which a person is born with hermaphrodite like sex organs this whole transgender movement is a ruse. A woman is born with female reproductive organs, a male is born with male reproductive organs, and each has their own sets and ratios of hormones being created within their bodies. Sure, some will have different ratios that place them outside the norm of their sex (i.e., some women may produce more testosterone relative to estrogen than the average female and likewise some men may produce less testosterone relative to estrogen than the average male) but that does not change the fact that they are the sex that they are born with for the vast majority of people. This is a non-issue that is being made into an issue and for what reason?

So, back to the conversation and the distractions being peddled by the propaganda media complex and government, I come back to the fundamental question of, “why?” Why are these distractions being peddled and I consider the question of sex identity to be one of many distractions. What I see in the immediate future is the release of the Supreme Court decision regarding Roe v. Wade and a seeming bipartisan agreement regarding gun control which I think is a bunch of hooey considering current laws are not being enforced but, for now, I will leave that as a subject for another conversation. What I see is midterm elections and the chess board being set. As far as I am concerned right now the news cycle, if you want to call it news since it really should be called the propaganda cycle, is gearing up for the midterms because there is a ton of money to be made in advertising and pushing the agendas of the corporate globalist leftist elites.

Refining my line of questioning I ask myself, “OK, why are these stories being pushed at this time knowing the midterm elections are just around the corner and only mere months away?” Further questions arise in my mind when framing the question this way such as, why has there been an uptick in “mass shootings” in the last couple of months that are now causing Congress to come up with “bipartisan” gun control legislation? Why has a George Soros backed company bought several Spanish language media outlets in the past week? Why is the uproar already building over the Supreme Court’s release of its Roe V Wade challenge? Summing all these questions I would say the common denominator is there seems to be an uptick in chaos that is purposely being stoked and I must, again, ask myself, “why?”

My thoughts are starting to coalesce around the idea of chaos and the loss of an objective application of the law. The sex identity movement is yet another movement designed to confuse language and with the confusion of language it makes it easier for the autocrats (bullies) in this world to subjectively lash out with impunity against all who do not agree with they say. It does matter if what is being said refutes logically what the bullies are saying it only matters that you agree with what the bullies are saying and this is totalitarian in nature. With the gun laws being proposed does anyone really believe they will help stop these seemingly random acts of violence? No, it only will give more power to thugs and bullies who care not what the law says. Besides with the trust in the institutions of the country already flagging the application of law will become even more subjective and whoever has the biggest club, so to speak, will be the final arbiter of law.

In addition, reading alternative non legacy news sources, I have learned that the Saudis, Russians, Indians and Chinese have been talking about trading Saudi oil using non US Dollars as the medium of exchange. This coupled with the fact that the Europeans are still purchasing Russian oil and natural gas with Rubles using cutouts it is obvious that the days of the US Dollar being the world’s Reserve Currency are numbered. Paraphrasing what I have learned from Mr. Dalio in his book, “The Changing World Order” once a Reserve Currency becomes a fiat currency history has shown it is the beginning of the end for that currency. It has now been fifty years since the US Dollar became a truly fiat currency, thanks to a Republican President and Democrat Congress, and quite frankly it appears that the gas tank supporting the US Dollar as the worlds reserve currency is running out of Saudi oil which is what has supported the dollar thanks to Breton Woods. Couple this with the reluctance of the ruling elites in the US to “face the music”, for instance, not allowing a true free market clean out of the economy after the 2008 financial crisis, the economy has hobbled along with a deadly government backed cancer being artificially kept alive and being allowed to metastasize. It has been kept alive only to benefit corrupt government politicians, corrupt businessmen with government connections and especially a corrupt and bloated banking industry. I know with the stripping of reserve currency status for the US Dollar the US economy is in for very difficult times and historically these difficult times include civil unrest against the current ruling powers in a country. Lastly, unlike most Americans who believe or accept the drivel being peddled by the corrupt government media propagandists, I have no illusions that the Russians, Indians, Saudis and Chinese are not buying what is being sold.

The conclusion that I have come up with is that chaos is being sowed so that the Constitutional Rights of Americans can be taken away from the general citizenry. From my perspective a rapid increase in the iterative cycle of the autocratic seizing of citizens’ rights began with the passing of the Patriot Act, then the autocratic use of executive authority of emergency powers in the name of the COVID scam, and now, gun control in the name of “out of control gun violence”. What I am suspecting is this grab for autocratic dictatorial power by the globalist elites in the United States is because, like it or not, the US Dollar is losing its reserve currency status. Therefore, there is economic hardship and quite frankly sever economic hardship looming on the horizon and the powered elites in the US beholden to the International Socialist Globalist movement know this. It seems that many events are being engineered to instill fear on the one hand so that the other hand can pass laws that erode the fundamental rights guaranteed by the US Constitution. One of the fundamental arguments for the creation of the Second Amendment was that periodically the rank and file citizenry must rise and throw out any rulers who have become too enamored with and or addicted to the power of their offices. I think the powered elites, inside and outside of government, are afraid of this potential scenario looming on the horizon. They are afraid that when the rank and file of the United States citizenry wake up as their standards of living erode much faster than they have over the past twenty years there will be great social unrest.

God bless America and God bless the world.

Random Musings 1.6.21

Once again it is time for some Twitter (for those with a litigious bent there is a trademark symbol just after the “r” in the previous word) like random musings from the mind of a quiet, unassuming, at least in my own opinion, person observing the ramblings, rumblings and revelations in the media. Additionally, now I know that Twitter and Facebook would censor what I have to say any way.

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

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

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

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

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

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