Goodbye 2020

It has been a week since I last posted a comment and to be honest the reason I have not posted is because I am a bit despondent. I will admit that I donated money to a couple of political campaigns this year and I am still receiving solicitations from the campaigns. I am now dismissing them out of hand because I see absolutely no action being taken to hold the cheats, sneaks, and fraudsters who have stolen this most recent election from me and people like me. I still say count every legal vote and the evidence is not being shown to me that every legal vote has been counted and that tens of thousands of illegal votes have occurred. To those who say they will take care of it later I say, “Yeah right do you think I am stupid? You want to drag your feet and hope that people will forget about it so that you can make your money off of the next election”. I am still waiting for the “bombshell” and needless to say I am getting a bit impatient with all the rhetoric and other bologna being peddled.

What this pause to reflect has given rise to within me is the thought that when I do not like a service that I receive from a business or I do not like a particular stance they take politically I can choose to no longer do business with that particular business. For instance, I do not do business with Amazon and will never pay for any of its services, I have not been on Facebook in six months and I will choose any store over Walmart if I can, I am looking at how I can move my business email account off of Google, long ago I quit using Google as my search engine, and now I am looking for alternatives to Netflix as well. Additionally, when Colin Kapernick started taking a knee I took all of my 49er gear down, quit watching the NFL, and this year quit watching MLB when I saw a BLM on a pitcher’s mound. This really has been difficult for me because I like to save money like anyone else and really enjoyed watching sports for entertainment and really have enjoyed the services of Netflix and quite honestly Google had the best search engine for years. I was a happy consumer until these companies, however, now that the owners of these companies have shown themselves to be megalomaniacs with no love for my country and openly support Marxist Leninist Trotskyite organizations and principles I will start my one man boycott of their companies. If others join me all the better but I will at least do my part.   

However, I do not have this recourse when it comes to my government. I do not have the choice to not pay for the so called services that the governments provide me. Let me state up front that I am not an anarchist. I do believe that government is necessary but I am a firm believer that government and its powers should be limited if this has not been clear in the past. I enjoy the notion that thugs that rule China, Russia and elsewhere cannot send ships carrying troops to invade the United States. In other words, I believe the federal government is tasked with the self-defense of our country. It is stated so in the US Constitution for good reason. Because there are those who believe in taking the hard work of those who are industrious and productive by force. I get it. Quite honestly, I enjoy the roads that I drive on though I am not so sure a private company could do the job of maintaining and building roads far more efficiently than my state government. I know there is waste and fraud in the awarding of these contracts as there obviously is in the awarding of military contracts on the federal level. I also enjoy the relative peace that having a local, county and state police and or sheriffs provide in my local area. Without them I am quite sure society would degrade and I would always have to be thinking about mine, my families, and my community’s safety.

But, what I do not enjoy is when my government becomes corrupted and when public service becomes a path to riches at the expense of me I do not have a choice to not pay for the government’s services like I do with commercial enterprises. I do not have a choice to not pay my taxes because if I do not pay my taxes the sheriff or some other branch of law enforcement (who ostensibly only purpose is to keep the peace) will show up at my door with their guns and arrest me. The main recourse I and my fellow citizens have is our vote. Our vote is the currency that each and every citizen has in the marketplace of political ideas and actions. We are each supposed to have one vote no matter how rich, poor, politically connected or not politically connected we are. And now it appears that this has been a charade going back at least twenty years if not further back. At least twenty years since the use of voting machines and probably a century or more in the case of cities with large political machines that have perfected the art of voter fraud.

I would have to say that my grievances are numerous but currently I am not happy with either the executive, the legislative, nor the judicial branches of government nor either of the major political parties in my country. It seems to me that elements of the Executive are out of control with the CIA, FBI and DOJ come to mind right off the top of my head. With regards to the Legislative Branch it seems to be so completely corrupt that they are willing to allow the Executive to run rough shod and comply with their overreaches as for instance in the allowing of the investigations of President Trump and the people around him and carrying out a phony impeachment. I am thinking of James Comey and his underlings in particular in this moment. Additionally, they pass a $1.4 trillion dollar “omnibus” spending bill that provides only $600 to me yet provides $1200 dollars to non-citizens and tens of millions of dollars to foreign interests and etc. It is so obvious that Congress is run by lobbyists and their interests. The Judicial Branch appears to be gone as the Supreme Court will not even do their job as granted them in Article III Section 2 of The Constitution. Texas vs. Pennsylvania has no standing? Give me a break it is your judicial Power to adjudicate controversies between states! This does not even get into all the instances of judicial activism which would be too numerous to list over the last 100 years. Just look at all of the Propositions in California that the people voted for and passed that were subsequently thrown out by corrupt leftist judges.

I sit here and I have to wonder where the leaders are in Washington DC? I have supported President Trump because I see him as being a leader and though I do not agree with everything he stands for, I probably could never work directly for him, and some of his Tweets have made me laugh and cringe I can respect him and his executive abilities. President Trump has not made his fortune off of his position in government as have so many of his detractors both inside and outside (i.e. Big Tech with their Section 230 protection and etc.) of government. What frightens me is that the people inside government have become so comfortable and dependent upon government largess that they have come together to apparently unlawfully prevent mine and others votes from counting. I am fearful that if this is allowed to keep Donald Trump from winning this election then our republic is lost because the one currency I have to express my pleasure or displeasure with current elected office holders, my vote, has been utterly debased and invalidated. To me there is no happy ending to this story if this truly is the level of power the foreign and or domestic enemies of my Constitution have gained and are allowed to keep. As the year of my lord 2021 dawns I will wait quietly to see what, if anything, comes out of Washington DC and around the country in the next week to three weeks. Time is running short and I have to think that I may need to go underground because I will admit that I am more fearful of the left in power than the left carrying out their threats should who appears to be the rightful winner of this election keep power.

Hello 2021!!! Happy New Year!!!

Post Script: Commissions on election fraud, special councils, and Congressional hearings will not change my mind on how I feel about the legitimacy of this past election. I want answers now or the opportunity will be lost forever I fear. If it looks like a delay tactic, and smells like a delay tactic to get the current nonpolitical office holder out of office then it probably is a delay tactic.

Random Musings 12.11.20

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, it appears that Twitter would most likely censor what I have to say any way and Facebook certainly would censor what I have to say.

I am reading the breaking news about the Covid vaccine and question why many are hell bent on purchasing and distributing the Pfizer vaccine. Something bothers me about putting something in my body that must be super cooled and could potentially affect the RNA of my body. Another thing that bothers me is the rumors that the US Military has already purchased large doses of this vaccine for distribution to our troops. Again I call on the leaders of this country to please do not allow our military to be used as guinea pigs for the vaccine. Right now the only vaccine I am remotely comfortable with is the Oxford Astra Zeneca vaccine which uses similar technology to previous vaccines and additionally it does not need to be super cooled when stored.

Another thing is to all of these government officials who say they will take the vaccine in public to set an example. Pardon my cynicism but I know how easy it would be to fill a syringe up with a saline solution and play it off as a dose of the vaccine. I personally would prefer to catch the virus right now and treat it like President Trump and Rudolph Giuliani and countless others have and survived.

Chinese honey traps?!? Hmm, some things never change in the espionage game. The good representative from California should immediately be stripped of his security clearance and seat on the House Intelligence Committee pending the outcome of whatever investigation that may be underway if there is one underway.

I am smiling at the actions of Texas and the other 18 states who have enjoined the lawsuit and are challenging the states who have apparently committed fraud against the elections. I am frowning at the states who have filed amicus briefs in support of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Georgia. Of course the states supporting the four states are Democrat Party controlled states such as California, Nevada, and others. I know, big surprise there. I am patiently awaiting what the Supreme Court has to say about this as, to me, this is one of the biggest cases in my lifetime. Even bigger than Florida in 2000 and I certainly hope the Supreme Court takes it up despite the perils fraught with whatever decision they make. Of course, personally, I hope the Supreme Court rules against judicial activism and executive overreach and goes with a conservative originalist interpretation of The Constitution.

Please, whoever is responsible for the security of the Supreme Court Justices and their families security, do your job. I would not put it past radicals on either side but especially the left to find a way to threaten them. Now, if one of them has been dumb enough to compromise themselves then let it come to light so they can be impeached and removed from office because they do not deserve to sit on the bench.

I watched news reports of the city of Los Angeles’ new District Attorney stating that he will not enforce select laws, eliminate cash bail and a host of other actions. Isn’t this just another example, similar to judicial activism, of an elected official overstepping their authority? One man who has been elected using money from an enemy of the state (George Soros) and probably money from Nancy Pelosi considering the new AG is from San Francisco to one position is legislating. To me this is unconstitutional and borderline if not outright criminal. Once again Pelosi ways are being exported to another city to feed off of and destroy. Baltimore to San Francisco to Los Angeles and let us hope not the United States.

I am listening to people who are afraid of threatened violence by the left should the election be legally overturned by the Supreme Court and a legal count is ordered which overturns the election. I personally do not believe we should be concerned as I am fully confident that true patriots have been keeping quiet, preparing and most importantly keeping their powder dry. It may not be pretty but it may be necessary to ensure the survival of our constitutional republic.

A Thanksgiving Proclamation

The following has been reprinted without the permission of anyone, however, the source of this proclamation is A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents 1789-1908, by James D. Richardson, Representative from the state of Tennessee, 1908, Published by the Bureau of National Literature and Art:

Proclamation

A National Thanksgiving

Whereas it is the duty of all nations to 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 11.19.20

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, it appears that Twitter would most likely censor what I have to say any way and Facebook certainly would censor what I have to say.

I listened to the news this morning while working out and there are reports of intimidation against Republican poll watchers and against an attorney who is or perhaps was working on one of President Trump’s lawsuits against the election results. One of the stories takes place in Michigan and the other takes place in Pennsylvania. These would then be examples, if proven true, of thuggish brutish and criminal behavior and the perpetrators of these crimes need to be held accountable.

So, Google starts Google Pay and thus creates their own bank, Amazon has now gone into the pharmacy business all announced in the span of a whole two days. Geez, who has been making money during this pandemic while countless numbers of small businesses are shuttered? Yet again, can anyone say anti-trust?

California Governor Newsom caught on camera with leaders and a lobbyist of California’s medical community eating in one of the most expensive restaurants in the country. That in and of itself stinks in the midst of a pandemic but to add icing to the cake none of them wore personal protective equipment (ppe), they were sat indoors, and the whole party of twelve was packed around a table with obviously less than six feet between each of them. Can you say hypocrisy?

What bothers me most is that Governor Newsom can meet with the so called medical leaders of the state for dinner in a group of twelve, which by the way exceeds the maximum allowed by state edict, to one could ostensibly assume to discuss their next actions against the citizens of California in the name of the pandemic. This while on the other side they are placing increasing numbers of counties in “purple” status which shuts down restaurants and are encouraging people to not hold Thanksgiving Dinners in their own homes. Wow, do you think perhaps Governor Newsom, his handlers and minions and all of the others across the country, (i.e. Governor Cuomo) and etc. like him do not want families, friends, and associates to gather because they fear political repercussions? You know the sort of political repercussions that could germinate when friends, family, and associates gather, talk, and begin comparing notes so to speak.

Let us not forget that the British did allow large gatherings in the days leading up to the American Revolution as have plenty of other dictators and etc. throughout the course of human history. Let us not forget that often the Sons of Liberty met in taverns throughout the American Colonies because obviously this fact has not been lost on the perpetrators of the COVID restrictions.

I just finished watching he press conference with President Trump’s attorneys and have to say I am encouraged. I am still digesting a fair amount of it but have to say overall it was encouraging despite Mayor Giuliani’s perspiration streaked face. Of course doing a Yahoo search I pull up the headlines such as” Giuliani quotes ‘My Cousin Vinny’ as he sets out conspiracy theories at bizarre press conference”, “Most respectable lawyers have quit Trump’s lawsuits…”, and “Confusion as Trump’s lawyers how press conference nest to sex shop”. I personally think Sidney Powell and especially Jenna Ellis were very well laid out. Ms. Ellis mentioned, and I am paraphrasing, that these are essentially opening statements and that the case is not to be judged in the court of public opinion but rather in the legal system. Therefore, there is no need to provide the details to the press. So true! If you are to believe Yahoo News one would think that the team is nothing but a bunch of crackpot conspiracy theorists. I wonder if they are saying this because each of the attorneys called the members of the press for their lack of objective reporting. I for one am patient and would like to see this played out in court. I certainly do not believe an iota of what the media is reporting. In fact, seeing the facts that can be laid out in the manner that they have been so far seems to me that more investigating is needed. I lived through the election of 2000 and it took much longer to resolve than has expired so far in since this current election was supposedly held.

One last thought is when people need to be bullied, censored, and otherwise threatened and intimidated into a view other than what they initially believe I ask myself why? I ask myself who are the people doing the bullying and intimidating and what are they hiding and trying to pull over on me? Something stinks when this simultaneously occurs geographically disperse areas and at the same time. Kind of like the “spontaneous’ eruption of protests and riots across the country as if on cue and with equal fervor.  

Scam at the Fringes

I remember many years ago reading a newspaper, when there was still some actual journalism happening and not propaganda, about some people who were arrested for a unique scam. In the scam, if I remember right some bankers and or accountants set up a scam in which they shaved fractions of cents off of financial transactions which in large transactions or spread over a huge amount of transactions and deposited these fractions of cents were deposited into bank accounts controlled by the scammers. At first glance one would not think that would amount to a whole lot of money but since I am an engineer and work with numbers I will provide an easy example. Let me state that these are not the actual figures of the scam but for the sake of this argument I am presenting a simplified example.

Say for instance one is brokering a $1,000,000 transaction in which their firm charges a 10% commission. That means the brokerage firm that the accountants and bankers work with will get a $100,000 commission. If say, for instance, 1/10th of a cent is shaved digitally during the transaction of the commissions then if a penny is 1/100 of a dollar then 1/10th of the 1/100th means 1/1000th of the $100,000 is shaved or $100 is shaved. From this I say ok, no big deal, a hundred dollars will fill two of my cars up with gas with some left over to get a weeks’ worth of groceries. Please do not get me wrong I would not be happy losing the $100 but compared to the overall transaction the $100 is actually 1/10,000 of the original $1,000,000.

Where this scam becomes interesting is when there are many separate and un related transactions occurring in which this 1/10th of a cent is shaved and collected into this account or several accounts controlled by the same group of scammers. In the United States I am sure there are more than hundreds of millions if not billions of transactions happening on any given day. For the sake of this argument let’s say a $100 million dollars is transacted and 1/10,000 or this $100 million is $10,000. If a billion dollars is transacted in a day 1/10,000 of the one billion is $100,000. Now we are looking at some serious money that was made in a single day by shaving off the edges of the hundreds if not thousands of financial transactions occurring without anyone really noticing for a significant length of time. The malfeasance and illegal activity of the conspirators did not attract the notice of regulators and law enforcement for significant amount of time.

Why do I bring this scam up on a blog dedicated to the Constitution you may ask? Well, I will answer your question, it is because I cannot get this scam out of my head observing the events of the past months that have culminated with the election this past week. Specifically, the calls by the press and Democrats asking for proof of election fraud and making statements that there is no wide spread voter fraud. When I began to hear of this the previous mentioned fraud was the first thought that came to mind. Number one there is increasing evidence of election fraud. This is substantiated by the fact the numbers of people beginning to sign affidavits to the fact that they witnessed fraud, coercion, and lack of transparency belies this fact.

Secondly, I would like to posit that there may be wide spread and organized fraud hid in plain sight. Hid in plain sight similar to the fraud committed by bankers, computer programmers, and accountants in the scam I mentioned. It is just too convenient that a voter machine switched votes from President Trump to Joe Biden in Michigan that would not have been caught had it not switched a traditionally Republican district and someone actually looked into the switch. It is my understanding that this machine is used in over thirty states and let us say for instance 1/10,000 of the votes were switched to Joe Biden. Would anyone notice?

To imagine a scenario in which 30 states has this happen and 140 million people total in the country voted. If 3/5 of the states have this machine this would mean 3/5 of 140 million people is 84 million people. If 1/10,000 of these 84 million votes were switched this would mean 8,400 votes were switched and no one would notice. If 1/1,000 of the votes were switched this would mean 84,000 votes were switched and no one would notice because they are spread over thirty states and multiple counties. In this election there are more than thirty states who used this machine and in states with large populations.

Now, we have in some of the large cities controlled by Democratic Party machines where there are allegations of so many different types of fraud and we can see that taken each type of fraud individually it does not appear to include large significant numbers that could change the outcome of the election. You know the argument that 10 votes here and a 100 votes there will not be enough to change the election.

What bothers me is like the scam I presented below we may not be looking at the forest because looking at only the 10 votes here and the 100 votes there we are just looking at trees. These 10 votes here, 100 votes there, 12,500 votes dumped overnight in a counting center, 4,500 votes flipped by a computer program written by a company with definite managerial ties to prominent Democrat politicians, who knows how many votes counted without Republicans able to verify a legal count, states changing laws to benefit mail in ballots which are subsequently counted without signature verification without observation, states Attorney General’s changing signature verification requirements, a complicit Twitter, Facebook, Amazon and mainstream media, COVID and it becomes easy to see that there is a pattern. A pattern in which suddenly, to me, it becomes plausible and within the realm of reason that the criminal Democratic Party organization could be pulling of a massive fraud against our country. This vote is so close that all of these seemingly unconnected “small” events could add up and that we of the United States are being duped and having our freedoms being stolen from us in broad daylight.

I do not accept the results of this election as it stands at this moment. This apparent fraud must be investigated and shown to not be fraud for me to accept the results. Do I expect the DOJ to open a RICO Investigation? No, I would imagine there is a snow ball’s chance in Hawaii of that happening. I notice the press is ramping up their reporting of the COVID spike on the heels of the COVID immunization announcement. States are beginning to shut down again and I cannot help but be cynical that the political class is using COVID yet again to shut down large public gatherings as opposition to the election results grows.

Now I hear calls to just accept the elections and agree that changing the voting process needs to happen from conservative sources. What?!?!? No! This is the type of acquiescing that has gotten us into this situation. Do you think the Democrat Socialists will allow the voting process to be changed in a way that disfavors them? It will be uncomfortable to stand up to the thugs, crooks, and bullies. Let me tell you that it was not comfortable for me to train, go and live in Afghanistan wearing my countries uniform. To you conservatives who want to just throw in the towel I say grow some fortitude because if you do not my time in the military for nothing!!!

Legitimacy

To be legitimate or not to be legitimate seems to be the question at hand in our country at the moment. Of course, I speak of the most recent elections held last Tuesday, November 3, 2020. This after Joe Biden and the media have begun pushing the agenda that Mr. Biden has won the election.

Sitting at my kitchen table letting my fingers push a key pad I am left wondering if my country and its institutions are nothing but a charade to prop up a corrupt, self-serving, parasitic ruling class in this country. A class that has no party affiliation other than to perpetuate their power and their families.

Let me state first and foremost that I do not recognize Joe Bidden as the President Elect any more than I recognize President Trump as the President Elect. What I do recognize is that everything about this election has a certain stench about it and I am starting to think that there is a vast attempt to disenfranchise me and, quite honestly, many other Americans.

It is my opinion that the big city political machines need to be destroyed and efforts must be made to ensure they never gain the power that they apparently still have. These political machines from New York to Baltimore to San Francisco including Chicago and other Democrat Party run cities in between have corrupted and laid waste to once great and vibrant cities and states. These political machines have created nothing more than a class of gentrified leeches and cheats who live off of the carcasses of these once great cities and states. Now, like a tape worm growing inside the guts of their host they want to spread their corruption to the White House and fundamentally change the whole country. It is time, if we want to save this constitutional republic, that we must first ascertain a proper diagnosis of the parasite so that a proper treatment to eliminate this parasite can be prescribed.

I do not care how many weeks it takes to sort out the allegations of fraud in the contested states so that only legal votes are counted. If a vote was received late, was of a dead person, or if machines had their software changed to miscount votes in favor of Joe Biden or even, quite frankly President Trump, then this needs to be rooted out and it needs to be rooted out now! This is not a can to be kicked down the road until a future date which is so often the default of the parasitical class. If you expect me to consider this election as legitimate then you need to convince me that this is a legitimate election! Oh and just because the Justice Department doing an investigation their findings alone will not convince me. As I wait for the Durham report and considering how little of the Justice Department’s bureaucracy has turned over since the Obama administration there are doubts in my mind at just how effective they can be.

These are dangerous times because if I am questioning the legitimacy of the election then how many others out there are coming to similar if not the same conclusions. I have to question returns that have what appears to be a very corrupt politician being propped up by what appears to be very corrupt political machines in corrupt cites and being protected by a corrupt media class who happens to be headquarted in many of these corrupt cities and states. Now we have members of these same big city parasites in both the media and government calling for the blacklisting of Trump staffers and supporters? This type of rhetoric is moving our republic down a path that does not have a good ending. Then again, perhaps this is the truly the end game of this minority of parasites which is to sow discord and create anarchy?

This comes back to what many consider to be chaos and uncertainty regarding the election and its results for me. It is better to ensure that the election is fair and that any votes cast illegally have been disqualified and endure the potential chaos that comes from a fair election than to go further down a road that delegitimizes our republic. After all I quite certain the loudest opposition to a fair election are those who would seek to delegitimize the republic and install a government more suitable to their ends. Ends that certainly are not beneficial to the population and country as a whole.

Yes, a constitutional crisis may ensue in which court precedent may need to be set. It will not be the first time this has happened and I pray to God I hope it is not the last time that it will happen. The Constitution was purposely made to be a living document so that it could change and flex as our nation aged and times changed. However, it was not made to be so flexible that it could be bent shaped and broken according to the whims of a small group of elite parasites. If we, as a nation, expect this republic to live what better time than right now to ensure that our elections are fair, clean, and legal? May the parasitical class thugs who are threatening violence if the election does not go their way carry through with their threats of coercion? Yes, they probably will and they should be held accountable. However, if the election is not shown to be legitimate we could presumably begin to see the disintegration of the republic in ways that will make the agitations of these thugs seem very minor in comparison.

I thank President Trump and his team for standing up to the bullies and thugs in the big city political machines and their lackeys in the press. For if President Trump will not stand up then who will? I know it certainly will not be the likes of Mitt Romney and the other RINOS in the Republican Party and most certainly not from the other side of the aisle in the Democrat Socialist Party ranks.

Random Musings 10.8.20

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, it appears that Twitter would most likely censor what I have to say any way and Facebook certainly would censor what I have to say.

I will not Zoom my Thanksgiving dinner! F*&k you CDC and any others who would even suggest this. I am my family consist of responsible adults who can make their own choices. Go back to being good little bureaucrats and keep your noses out of my business because you are no longer scientists.

So, the Presidential Commission on Debates wants to have a virtual debate because of COVID fears. Hmm, let me see I wonder if I could have backed out of my deployment to Afghanistan because of my fear of being killed? No, I took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States and so I did my duty. Excuse me Commissioners the Presidential Election is guaranteed by the Constitution and your fears of COVID ring hallow to me. Wear PPE and if you get it, the odds are you will not die. The numbers just do not back it up. Besides President Trump obviously has beaten it and so will not be in danger.

I think it is a great thing that the FBI broke up the plot against the Michigan Governor. I do not agree with any one of her policies but there is a way to legally remove her from office and that is the way to go about it in my opinion. Now, why can they not bring charges against the members of the Justice Department who plotted a coup against the duly elected President of the United States and arrest the bastards who committed these seditious acts?

Grandma Nancy Pelosi will not pass any COVID relief because she cannot get her pork passed? Good for you President Trump!

Supreme Court Vacancy 2020

With the year 2020 continuing its series of twists and turns we are confronted with yet another opportunity to either acquiesce to the sowers of discord and hatred or find our inner courage and stand up for what believe to be right. This time it is the passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the guaranteed political maneuvering, machinations, and perils of her passing less than two months before the elections. Elections which include the President, nearly the whole of the Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and elections which have the specter of a leftist extortion threat of violence if the left does not get its way hanging over them.

Despite all of this my first take on Justice Ginsburg’s passing and the subsequent vacancy of her position on the Supreme Court bench is that President Trump and the Republicans have potentially a great opportunity to take control of the narrative in the days leading up to the election. Though I will be the first to admit, from what I see as an outsider, the path is fraught with peril, it will require some stiff backbones and it will require intestinal fortitude from the Republican Senate caucus. Much of which seems to be missing at times in the Republican caucus.

Specifically, I do not see too much downside to pushing ahead with the nomination and confirmation of a new justice. I say this for several reasons which include the opportunity to control the pace of events in Washington DC in the month or so leading up to the election and the ability to appoint a true constitutional conservative who will not be a proponent of judicial activism. Least of all and most importantly the President and Senate have the Constitutional authority to do so under Article II Section 2 of the The Constitution of the United States.

Starting with appointing a proponent of judicial activism it appears that the Republican majority could be in jeopardy of being lost in the election. If this is truly the case then waiting until after the election would be the squandering of a generational opportunity. Sure, the Democrats and their surrogates in the media will scream hypocrisy (which seems to be the going narrative already the day after the Justice’s death on NPR and other Leftist Media sites). However, Senator McConnel has already laid the messaging groundwork in stating that Republicans control both the White House and the Senate. So, game over, the Democrats, Marxists, and Leftists can whine and cry, but they do not have the Constitutional authority to do anything about it.

Politically, it does have the potential to create consternation and headaches for the Senators who are running in contested elections which I get. But again, this is a generational opportunity and a duty specifically spelled out in the constitution. So, they need to get over it.

This leads to the last thought I have regarding the proceedings and hearings which can be quite public. I would love to gauge the public reaction would be if the Bret Kavanaugh hearings were to happen right now? I am not saying the Democrats would approach the hearings the same way they did Justice Kavanaugh’s hearings but I would almost dare them to do so. I would especially like to see what Senator Harris and the other leftists have to say in the hearings which will undoubtedly be broadcast nationally. I this especially considering how quiet she has been the last several weeks.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

As expected, the year 2020 keeps on rolling unabated with yet another not altogether unexpected surprise but a shock nevertheless. I walked into my living room yesterday evening and my wife informed of the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG). Needless to say, the first words out of my mouth were, “Whoa! This is big”.

First though I would offer my condolences to her family. I am sure they, a person who never met her personally, have been watching her decline and speaking from firsthand experience of similar experiences have begun their mourning and will be doing so for some time to come.

To be quite honest I personally have paid little attention to the life of Justice Ginsburg other than that I pretty much disagreed with her positions on the bench in just about every imaginable way possible up to and included her use of her position for judicial activism. Just look at the name of my blog and this should come as no surprise. However, after watching some of the hastily assembled tributes and recounts of her life last night it is hard not to respect all that she accomplished in her life. A lifetime that began in 1933 and spanned across a period of time in which included so many changes in the world and our country. A period of time that encompassed wars, great social changes, a man land on the moon, the advent of the computer, and many other things to say the least. I must respect that she was able to have a family, go to law school, practice law and ultimately rise to one of the highest judicial positions in our country. To Ruth Bader Ginsburg, “I say Shalom and though I am not Jewish it certainly is not lost on me that you have passed on the Shabbat at the beginning of Rosh Hoshana. May you rest in peace Justice Ginsburg”.

Random Musings 9.18.20

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, it appears that Twitter would most likely censor what I have to say any way and Facebook certainly would censor what I have to say.

I cannot believe so much time has passed since my last post already. This especially considering all the events that have happened and so much that could be commented on. Then again perhaps it is because all the events going on that have prevented me from typing.

In my part of the world we have been sucking California’s smoke for literally the last month except for three days. Today is one of the relatively smoke free days and maybe that is a reason for me doing some typing.

Hmm, it seems that Senator John Thune is partners with Senator Lee in supporting and protecting big tech. Senator Thune why don’t you just confirm President Trump’s FCC nomination? I wonder how much they have paid you, your campaign, and or one or some of your constituents. Are you a RINO or just a greedy bastard?

And the cheat by mail fraud scandal continues on with Pennsylvania and Michigan being the latest characters to join in the plot.

I hear that the State of Nevada Governor (Steve Sisolak) is now withholding coronavirus relief funds from the county that hosted President Trump last weekend. What a petty little man.

Talk about another petty man and petty dictator the mayor of Nashville is another one. I just cannot help but wonder how many more of the petty men and women in positions of power are doing the same?

I finally got around to taking my NFL, MLB, and NBA teams off of my DVR list. The next things for me to do are to cancel my Netflix subscription and shutdown my Google accounts.

I wonder if Prince Harry knew what Meghan Markle was really about when he married her? I would think that Marxism flies in the face of all that his family stands for but then again, he did step back from his official duties.
