Random Musings on Current Events 6.6.2025

Once again it is time for some Random Musings On Current Events from the mind of a quiet, unassuming (at least in my own opinion) person observing the ramblings, rumblings, rants 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.

The Donald Trump and Elon Musk bromance seems to be over. Geez, I have to wonder if there really ever was one and do I really care? The press sure seems to be making a big deal over it and so, therefore, there probably is nothing much to be made of it. So, I will just leave it at that.

Now what really is a big deal to me is the apparent use of the “auto-pen” during the Joe Biden presidency. I have to question whether or not Joe Biden was mentally fit and if not, who was really signing official presidential orders? To me this is a far more serious matter than Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s relationship.

It appears that Chuck Schumer is going the way of Joe Biden in that what he saying in public makes little sense and is not grounded in reality. Although, I will admit that Senator Schumer is different in that he prone to hyperbole as evidenced that his favorite saying is that everything that Donald Trump says or supports is going to cause everyone to die. OK, that last sentence might have been a bit hyperbolic but I hope anyone who reads this gets the gist.

I read something that California cattle ranchers are now having to deal with cattle deaths due to wolves making a come back and really can do nothing about it because of laws that prevent the hunting or shooting of wolves. Although if one thinks about it if they are allowed to hunt the wolves it probably would not really matter. I say this because in California the ranchers are probably not allowed to carry firearms on their own ranches in their own vehicles. If they are allowed to carry a firearm, they would have to probably transport the weapon in the engine compartment and the ammunition in the trunk with the weapons broken down. Additionally, if the ranchers were allowed a weapon, it probably only could be a bolt action rifle modified to only accept one round at a time that has to be manually fed.

I will admit that I just went a little bit hyperbolic in the previous paragraph and if you see sarcasm dripping from my example it is because there is sarcasm dripping. I will admit that I do not know the exact laws regarding firearms in California but I do know that it is nearly impossible for one to carry a sidearm in the state. I have to wonder what one is to do if they encounter a wolf pack while out in some of California’s back country? One certainly cannot open carry in California, it is next to impossible to obtain a concealed carry permit in California as a resident let alone a nonresident, and let’s say we could, then there are magazine restrictions that are only applicable in California. I tell you what makes more sense, for starters, is to implement a nationwide concealed and open carry law and strike down California’s magazine size laws. Sure one could say that the country would become like the Wild West but isn’t it already with lawlessness in the big Democratic Party run cities? Isn’t it time that the average citizen be empowered to protect themselves once again and to take personal responsibility for their wellbeing and not some overstuffed, self-aggrandizing pompous, power hungry bureaucrat in some state capitol or our nation’s capital?

I want to take a moment to acknowledge the sacrifice and honor of the fallen and those who participated in the invasion of Normandy, France eighty one years ago today and, for that matter, all of World War 2. Let us not forget the Greatest Generation and their sacrifices and grit to keep the world free for at least another couple of generations.

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.

Once again it has been two weeks since I last posted any rumblings, ramblings, and rants, however, if you are one of the few who read my writings you knew that it would be two weeks and so here, I go.

I read an interesting article in which the US Social Security system could still actually be saved, however, it would require some hard decisions and the sooner the better that these decisions be made the less painful the decision would be. This considering the system has a looming insolvency issue in about seven years. Do I believe the politicians in Washington D.C. will make any of the hard decisions required to save Social Security for me and my generation of Gen Xers? No, I do not believe they will because the politicians are far too short sighted and only seem to be worried about their next elections to continue their abilities to live off of the system.

South African refugees seems to have become a hot topic in the last couple of weeks in the main stream. Well it is about time as I have been aware of gun battles etc. happening in South Africa as the government and others have been trying to force the white Afrikaners off of their lands. First, was apartheid, right? I will answer absolutely no. However, does two wrongs make a right? Another time I will answer no. It seems the South African government is taking out both sides when they claim not to be part of a genocide while at the same time they are allowing for the repatriation of white owned farms. Something is up down there and I do not think the memory of Nelson Mandela and the Springboks are going to hold the South African society together this time. There is trouble brewing and I have to wonder if there might be foreign agent or two or however many financing and stirring up the radicals in that nation?

Elias Rodriquez has been charged with the murder of the two Israelis in Washington D.C. last week. A man with ties to Party for Socialism and Liberation and who knows what other organizations is accused of murdering two Israelis in cold blood. One has to wonder what or who was really behind this man. Regardless, my thoughts and prayers go out to the two victims and their families.

There have been many other things that I have worked on, explored, and dealt with the past two weeks but they are too personal to mention on line. Until next time, happy rumblings and ramblings.

Random Musings on Current Events 5.16.2025

It has been two weeks since I have posted any of my rumblings, rambling, rants, and musings because, quite honestly, I have been too busy and deep into projects. Projects that have demanded my full focus, including the not paying attention of too many so called current events being pushed in the media. Not only that I have barely had time to listen to my favorite podcasts for the same reason. I will say also that I do not normally comment on the podcasts that I listen to because they are much more focused, in depth, and certainly too cutting edge to merely ramble about. I will also not be posting next week because I will be finishing up a project started last fall that will require my full attention.

It appears Jake Tapper and his crowd are ready to throw Senator Fetterman under the bus because of his “cognitive decline” or whatever they are calling it this week. This, despite what I understand, has been Senator Fetterman’s very good recovery from his stroke during the weeks leading up to his election. Of course Jake Tapper’s recently written book about Joe Biden’s decline is the works of a self-serving former sycophant of Joe Biden who claims not to have known about the former president’s mental state when it was obvious to even the most casual observer. Personally, and I have to agree with the gentleman’s post that I read alerting me to this, I think Senator Fetterman’s cognitive decline as detailed by the legacy MSM media is that Senator Fetterman is a free thinking man who comes to his own conclusions and is guilty of not keeping to the left wing ideological Democrat party line.

I now have had two people tell me about former FBI Director James Comey’s text, tweet, or whatever it was, posting of the code 86-47 which in this case could mean murder. You have got to be kidding me that a former head of what is advertised as the nation’s preeminent law enforcement agency did not know what this meant? I do understand that to be 86’ed can also mean banned from entering a premise so there is some wiggle room. However, in my mind, if he did not know then it explains the utter incompetence of the FBI and how politicized it has become at the expense of true law enforcement or it publicly shows the level or arrogance James Comey has for me and the rest of the average everyday American. Perhaps, it just provides evidence of both. Regardless, I certainly hope the Secret Service is investigating this and that any violation of law is referred to the Depart of Justice. Also, if referred that now civilian Mr. Comey is treated no differently than any other American who faces the charges. I am tired of the two tiered justice system and, if guilty, no one should be treated differently than anyone else, especially if they once held a high position in the District of Columbia.

I am not even going to comment on President Trump’s trip to the UAE other than to say I am going to need to take some time to catch up. As I said I have been busy and it seems that, as is typical with President Trump, there was a lot going on that was made public. Who knows what was happening behind the scenes?

I have to admit that I have been uncomfortable with Senator Lee in the past, especially with his support of big tech and their locating of major data centers to Utah. However, I have been quite impressed with the Senator’s support of the Trump agenda, in general. I get that no one is going to agree with me on every issue but what I respect is someone who stands for something and, though the verdict is still out on Senator Lee in my mind, he certainly is gaining points along with Senator Fetterman.

Best of luck to interim US Attorney Jeanine Pirro.

Is anyone else watching professional sports? I for one am not watching any professional baseball this year along with any of the Nike Basketball Association playoffs. I have to admit that I am not missing any of it. I am not missing any of the never ending commercials punctuated by some competition. I certainly do not miss a competition between millionaires who are being protected and who push the brands that they represent.

I had to laugh when I saw a headline about Trump having the all-time lowest first 100 day approval rating, or something to that effect. It caught my eye because this has not been my experience and after the blathering about Trump and how unpopular he is along with some other nonsense I got to what I was looking for. The poll was sponsored by ABC News, The Washington Post, and Ipsos. At that point I yawned and realized the piece was nothing more than leftist globalist propaganda.

It seems the evidence is growing that the collision between the US Army Blackhawk helicopter and the commuter plane over the Potomac River several months ago was the result of the helicopter’s pilot error. I just have to wonder what was going on in her mind and in the cockpit which we will never truly know. May everyone’s souls who perished in that disaster rest in peace.

Oh my goodness Bezinga and Yahoo reported that the International Monetary Fund and the US Bureau of Economic Analysis are saying that California now has the 4^th largest economy in the world!!! Of course, California governor Newsom made sure to announce this and I am quite certain that he is taking credit for this. Yet again, however, I have to question the source and means by which this metric was derived? I question this because though California may have the fourth largest economy in the world how come it has a large homeless problem? Why is there great economic disparity between the haves and the have nots? Why is industry leaving the state and yet it still goes up in terms of its economic size? How can it have a large economy when it cannot even manage its electrical infrastructure grid and the forests that surround it? Why can’t this state complete infrastructure programs on time and on budget. No, this article did not pass the smell test and is yet another article reeking of propaganda from a state full of corruption.

The jobs report came out and beat expectations despite the shrinking of government jobs. It seems that around 90% of the jobs created came out of the private sector, which to me is good news. Now, let’s cut the corruption in California as well and see what really happens with its economy and allow its middle class to flourish instead of its continual decline into a petty third world oligarchy.

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.

I really feel bad for Harvard, Colombia, Brown, Princeton, Northwestern, Cornell and other institutions of “higher” learning losing some government funding and say that with sarcasm dripping, no flowing, from every word. You have got to be kidding me with the huge endowments that these universities have and they are belly aching over the loss of government funds?!? I have said this before and I will say it again. I observe the state of the United States and the fact that most of the leaders and leading class come from these universities and it all adds up. The institutions are cesspools of Frankist ideology and have become dead weight if not outright anchors to the wellbeing and prosperity of the united states of America. Here is an idea, take the funding that has been promised to these institutions and allocate them to infrastructure repair and development.

For some reason I missed that nearly 100,000 Americans die each year currently from fentanyl poisoning and the main supplier, which I already knew and learned of around 2005, of fentanyl precursors in China. Additionally, many of the major computer hacks of US Government systems and databases recently have come from China, the CCP’s Thousand Talent program, the publication of the CCP Doctrine of Unlimited Warfare in 1999 all point to the CCP being a direct enemy of the united states of America. For me it has been obvious for at least a decade but it seems not to obvious to many of our gilded elite leadership. However, considering the paragraph above and where most of this gilded elite has received their educations is it any wonder? Let’s not forget over 100,000 Americans die each year because of Chinese unlimited warfare against the united states of America. Paraphrasing Sun Tzu he said the best way to defeat an enemy is to defeat it before any battles are fought. Do I need to make it clearer?

Oh my goodness my sides ached with laughter when I read that the White House eliminated the entire wire services from its press pool. This after the AP and Reuters whined to CNN about losing their seats in the press pool. I think the mainstream legacy media should all read Spenser Johnson’s book “Who Moved My Cheese” because the cheese has moved.

So there is movement in the antitrust cases against Meta and Google and I am not following all of the detail but it is about time. I just know if it is enough or without teeth considering I do not know the details. What I find fascinating is there has been no moves against Jeff Bezos’ Amazon and I have to wonder why? What does he have that provides him with overarching protection from the US Government’s regulators when Amazon has exhibited predatory and monopolistic behavior for decades now. Is it because he does not get involved in politics, does he have lucrative government contracts on the dark side as well as the light side or any combination of these and other things going on? What about Bill Gates and Microsoft? Yet another company that is a darling of those in government circles it just makes me wonder as Skype has been officially subsumed into Microsoft Teams. It truly is fascinating to me.

It appears that the FBI is finally doing something as I read that some contractors have been arrested for chem trail spraying otherwise known as weather modification in the atmosphere. I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about this until I went outside the other day and observed two planes flying, one at 36000 feet and the other at 38,000 feet and both had taken off from the same airport. The plane flying at 38,000 feet had a trail that went from horizon to horizon while the plane at 36000 feet had an obvious contrail considering that it disappeared within seconds of leaving the plane. I thought to myself that perhaps the atmospherics at the different altitudes caused the difference when I noticed a plane flying at 34000 feet. This plane flying at 34000 feet left a trail from horizon to horizon and so it has become apparent to me that there is definitely something going on here that needs further investigation.

One last item is that I cannot believe how much power one District Court Judge can have over the powers granted to the Executive to protect the borders of the united states of America. I am not going to go into detail but I just read of yet another judge, this time in California, ruling against a Trump Administration policy. Something needs to be done about this but, again, I would imagine these judges have received their educations, albeit indoctrinations in one of the elite Frankist institutions in the country.

It seems that the perpetual need for evil to consolidate power is rearing its ugly head yet again in my part of the world. Doesn’t one just got to love when legislative bodies meet and outside interests work to corrupt politicians in order to enrich themselves at the expense of the common man?

I am watching the never ending drama of a federal circuit judge shutting down the executive in what appears, to me at least, a gross overreach of judicial power. I am reminded of all the conservative propositions that have been voted in by California voters and then overturned by the state’s Supreme Court. Do you think this may have been an overreach of power by the Judicial and that it was a proving ground for these corrupted judges? Hmm, it certainly makes me wonder.

Is there anyone else who sees the apparent hypocrisy of an institute of higher learning, say Columbia, fuming about government interference in the case of Kahlil or Kalid or whatever his name is, when Columbia is more than willing to accept federal funds?

I am watching the unfolding of Signalchatgate with amazement and amusement. Amazement at how much hay the MSM is making with an incident that is already being dealt with. Amusement at how easily the MSM and the Dems have fallen for yet another information operation that was obviously designed to serve notice to the EU and WEFies in Europe.

So I am learning that there are bureaucrats who are pushing stringent antibiotic policies for the nation’s meat farmers, in particular beef and chicken. This while chicken and beef supplies are at their lowest levels in many years. So let me get this straight. The bureaucrats are pushing new and improved so called vaccines and not letting these flocks and herds develop their own immunity. This while big pharma rakes in the profits from selling these vaccines. Geez, am I the only one that does not see the potential for corruption in this model?

I woke up this morning to the news of a transformer fire in London, England that has forced Heathrow International Airport to be closed for a whole day. Oh geez, stop the presses, batten down the hatches, and shiver me timbers because the major airport that serves the city at the center of the known universe has been shuttered for twenty four hours!!! Although rare, transformer fires do happen especially if not maintained properly or if they are deliberately sabotaged which apparently the British security services are looking into. One can hope that in light of President Trump pushing to stop the Ukraine war, the darling war of MI-6, the WEF and the CIA, that this is not some sort of false flag operation. I suppose time will tell.

I have been following somewhat the brew ha ha surrounding the deportation of the Venezuelan terrorists, the District Court Judge ruling against this deportation and the information battle being waged on both sides of this current conflict and I will call it a conflict for now. First, how can a District Court Judge rule against the Executive branch from doing its job? I do have to agree with the Trump Administration’s argument that these judges have no authority to hinder the Executive Branch from carrying out their Constitutionally granted powers. I would imagine this case and others like it will eventually end up at the Supreme Court and personally I am ok with that. What I am not ok with, however, is the usurpation of any branch of government of another branch’s authorities and powers. I truly believe that we must all hold our government and ourselves to strict interpretations of the Constitution as the name of this blog implies.

I see that some more documents regarding the assassination of JFK have been released but from what I understand most of these have previously been released only this time they have no redactions. I can only wonder if these will provide irrefutable proof that the CIA, LBJ, and who knows who else knew who was responsible for the assassination if not they themselves were responsible. I am not going to hold my breath and time will tell.

I have been made aware that the courts in the USA are, in fact, courts with maritime jurisdiction only and that the entire Uniform Commerce Code (UCC) is really only a code able to be enforced within a maritime jurisdiction. As I dig deeper into this, I believe that I am beginning to see how this has been used to usurp and twist the original Common Law jurisdiction in the country. An effort backed by the British Accredited Registry (BAR) registered attorneys to overlay a jurisdiction over the comings and goings of Americans. Stay tuned for further rumblings, rants, and musings on this topic because I am starting to believe that there is something to this.

In the spirit of DOGE and the engineers and software developers now scrutinizing and investigating waste fraud and abuse within bureaucratic Washington, could the Constitution be considered the legal firmware of America and the different courts be the legal operating systems overlaid on top of the firmware? Hmmm, something to ponder.

Is there anyone else who is laughing at the leftist Democrat response to what Donald Trump and his team are doing? I certainly am.

Speaking of another point of laughter, concern, or perhaps just observing the light get shed upon a corrupt government I was amused to see that the Mexican President, Claudia Shinbaum, is moving to protect the drug cartels by changing her country’s constitution. I have long postulated that there is no way anyone can become the President of Mexico without support of at least one of the drug cartels. I believe her actions in light of the US Government designating several of the Mexican cartels as terrorist organizations is definitive proof now. It is obvious that the government of Mexico has no interest in seeing the end of these criminal cartels that run drugs and people that enrich so few Mexicans while keeping its middle class very small and the majority of its citizens living in near poverty conditions.

Congratulations too by the way to Kash Patel receiving the confirmation to be the head of the FBI.

I have to admit that there is a part of me that is waiting for the proverbial other shoe to drop. I do not trust the CIA, FBI, other deep state actors and the globalists to remain quiet through all of the cuts and exposure by DOGE.

Seeing the news of Los Angeles mayor, Karen Bass, deflecting and placing the blame of the devastating fires on others just reaffirms my conclusion that California is a failed state. I, for one, am hoping that the Feds put strings on all aid to California and not just for the fire response. Personally, all federal payments to California and how the money is spent should be DOGE’d and or audited. There is no way the current group of incompetent, corrupt hacks could maintain their power in the golden state without the federal funds that are continually being used to prop up its finances.

Speaking of California I took a drive in the last couple of weeks and entered the state from one of its neighboring states on a smaller state highway. Transitioning on the highway from its neighboring state to California the general condition of the highway became much worse that in California’s neighboring state? Why is this I have to ask myself considering I have now entered the state from three different states and traveled several of its more remote state highways. All of these highways are in a general state of decline and the lack of maintenance is evident. While I am at it where did the $7 billion dollars approved in a 2014 proposition to expand water storage go? Perhaps it went to the same place funds to maintain California state highways went?

I am watching about the actions of DOGE and the loss of funding going to USAID and others and I have to wonder how many NGOs and non profits will remain after the cutting is finished? One thought that crossed my mind is I wonder how much this spending has contributed to inflation? All of these government dollars chasing the same goods and services that I have to buy and without this government backing I wonder what it will be like with fewer government dollars chasing these goods and services?

It has been quite some time since I have expressed any of my rambling, rants, and revelations I thought it was high time that I did so. Especially now that the two former Democrats have been confirmed to their respective cabinet positions in DJT’s new administration. It appears that there is only one controversial cabinet pick, Kash Patel, left to be confirmed.

Speaking of President Trump and nominations I wish he and his staff well and will certainly be sending them prayers in the coming weeks months and years.

I have been gleeful, amused, and disappointed at the reactions of the deep state and their supporters the past couple of weeks since DJT took over as the President. Gleeful to see the speed, organization, and force of action that his administration has struck Washington and the entrenched elites with. I is like a breath of fresh air and amusing to watch how ill-prepared and how disorganized the Democrats and official Washington have been. Having worked and done business in the private sector where one’s livelihood is not guaranteed it is good to see the same for official Washington DC. On the same hand it is disappointing to see just how corrupted, lazy, and incompetent official Washington has become. I always knew in my gut that it was rotten but has Elon Musk has pointed out in many cases there is no apple left but rather just a ball of worms.

Quite honestly, I have been following the news much more regularly since DJT took office because events are moving much faster. One time I took a couple of days off for business reasons and when I checked back in, I was surprised how much new news there was. Therefore, I am not really sure where to start with my observations outside of what I said above, at least publicly.

I will say that I have had my misgivings about Elon Musk in the past and I will keep a sort of metaphorical distance from him. Primarily my misgivings center around him pushing for tax incentives in states that he has figuratively set up shop in. Although, I am fully aware that perhaps there should not be taxes in the first place and what bothers me is why does he get the tax breaks while I and others like me do not. Is that jealousy or is it justified? I am not sure at this point and perhaps I would just like to see these breaks apply across the board.

Now that that is out of the way I am very impressed with what DOGE is doing. Its legal standing is sound and I really am impressed with the tools that DOGE is bringing to bear upon the bloated bureaucracy. It is beautiful and I can only hope and suggest that the results be made public as much as possible. Sunshine is a great anti septic and we all know how moldy, dank and dirty swamps get because of the lack of sunlight. Please let the sunshine in and do not keep the new found knowledge secret for the gain of a few.

Lastly, I must admit that I have some anxiety because I am not sure when or how the deep state will strike back. Time will tell but I have no doubt that the deep state is not out for the count and they will not go down without a fight. The question is how and when will they regroup and mount some sort of counter offensive. There is no doubt that they are currently back on their heels and their counter responses have been mostly feeble at best. I can only hope the Trump administration will keep the pressure on and press their advantage as much as possible within the original and traditional constraints of the US Constitution which, quite honestly, allows for quite a bit of latitude. For instance, retaking executive authority over corrupt executive agencies, like USAID, etc.

For some reason I have the song “California Dreamin’” by the Mamas & Papas in my mind but quite honestly what I have floating around in my mind is more like “California Nighmaring”. My nightmares start with the OpenAI whistle blower being found dead in San Francisco. Upon learning of this all I can think is that OpenAI’s meteoric rise must be due to a government agency’s influence (i.e. CIA, FBI). To me the evidence is in that a whistle blower has been suicided. I wonder how many unexplained deaths and suicides occurred when Google, Facebook and Amazon were in their ascendancy that we did not know about because the internet was still in its infancy.

Speaking of some more California Nightmaring it appears that California’s Governor Newsom is declaring an emergency over bird flu at the same time I hear reports of more bird flu around the country. Does anyone else see a pattern late in the year eerily similar to late 2020? I have to wonder if Governor Newsom made his decision from the French Laundry restaurant in Napa Valley? I also have to wonder what the state of California’s budget is because I wonder if he is angling form some more Federal pork? Perhaps there was a bailout of some sort or another that Nancy Pelosi snuck into the failed continuing resolution? Perhaps, there is a line item in the money being allocated for disaster relief for California’s disaster known as its state government and ruling elite.

Mitch McConnell threw the polio card out against his support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s confirmation. Geez Senator McConnell, were you too busy crafting up the pork laden continuing resolution over cigars and bourbon with Reps. Jeffries and Johnson and Senator Schumer to dream up something original to attack RFK Jr. with? Maybe you should ask the pharmaceutical lobbyist, CCP agents or whomever paid your campaign and is employing you to at least draft up something original to attack him with. It is obvious they are more important to you than the American people after all waiting to the end of the year to attempt to push this CR laden with pork through. Here is an idea, why don’t your four stay in Washington through the Holidays working on this CR in a manner that suits the majority of the American people, let the rank and file off, and wait until they come back to vote on this. Or better yet, why don’t you step aside, a little early in Senator McConnell’s case, and let some adults who value other American’s time and resources do the job you four have so miserably failed at.

Eliminate Daylight Savings Time once and for all! I really do not see any good reason to have it and the argument that farmers have for having more daylight at the end of the day is bull pucky. Farm animals rise with the sun no matter what time it shows on a clock and yes, they roost, go to bed, or whatever animals do when the sun goes down. That is unless they are nocturnal and opposite occurs at sunrise and sunset. If someone has problems with not enough daylight at the end of the day start your day an hour earlier in the summer. If anyone who has had to work outside knows a lot of trade people start their days earlier in the summer to avoid the midday heat. In other words, get up earlier and quit your whining.
