Random Musings on Current Events 12.8.2023

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.

Does anyone else ever get the feeling of a disconnect between reality and what is being fed to us through the media, thanks to the spread of the internet and all the content that it delivers? This just being an extension of the corrupting influences brought about by the radio first and then television. We as human beings spend more time in front of our devices than we do cultivating one on one relationships with other human beings. The noise and constant bombardment of our senses with images and sounds from televisions, radios, and computers filling our minds up and distracting us from the real world. The sounds and sights of the devices designed to distract us from the uncomfortable reality of human existence in what is, at times, an unforgiving and bleak existence. These devices have become like a form Huxley’s Soma for the masses.

What disturbs me or rather what I finally was able to see this past week is that the media and big tech masters are creating new worlds in their digital realms that people are dependent upon for nearly all their survival. They shop online, find entertainment online, communicate with others online using email and video conferencing and a whole host of other activities. All activities that fill our minds but do nothing for our bodies. It almost seems as if it is an entrapment of our minds to ensure that our bodies follow suit. It is a way to imprison our bodies without having to build a prison.

Ex British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has testified before that county’s COVID commission. This after at least a week or more coverage of this Commission and all I could, yet again hear, was blah blah blah.

The current British Deputy Prime Minister, Oliver Dowden, discussing Russian hacking group ahead of the elections. What I find interesting is that he also lumped in five eye countries. Russia’s FSB Centre 18 also going by the names Star Blizzard and Frontier. A British official said, “We are coming towards an election year. We want to get this hack and leak threat more into the bloodstream – so people are more aware.” This and the mystery pneumonia attacking children and old people has spread from China to the U.S. Does anyone else see a narrative table of sorts being set for next year? It almost seems similar to 2019.

As if on cue and to add another piece of flatware to this so called narrative table being set for next year’s elections the religious war could be heating up with the Presidents of Harvard, MIT and Penn all under fire for not condemning genocide. I agree genocide should never be tolerated and I am pleased to see an uproar. My only question now is why are people just now seeing these people for the spineless morally corrupt vipers that they are? How many others in academia have no moral standing but are merely leftist puppets? Too many to fathom I would imagine at this point.

Speaker Johnson has within twenty four hours caved and added the FISA Section 702 back into the NDAA. Now I have to wonder if it was all just theater in the first place as his first refusal put him front and center on media as standing up to the deep state. Now that he has caved news of the cave are not front and center in the media. Oh, and this “cave in” comes after dealing with the notably anti human Chuck Schumer and the military is still going to fund abortion, transgender operations and more funding to Ukraine? This the same day that Secretary Austin, who has no credibility with me after his going along with allowing US Service members to be subjects in Big Pharma’s mRNA experiment, is threatening that troops will need to be sent to the Ukraine while our Southern Border is open? I hope this bill does not pass any floor votes because it should not. Time to pull out each individual item for a floor vote. So, what if it takes more time because we need to know where these supposed Senators and Representatives truly stand and they may have to do some work instead of working the D.C. cocktail fundraising circuits. It is disgusting to see the arrogance of these people.

I see that Italy has withdrawn from China’s Belt and Road and I think this is good news. Now I wonder what or if Italy will do anything about keeping its churches and cathedrals from being turned into mosques?

A shooting in Las Vegas in a gun free zone, with a pistol and the Dems, as if on cue, immediately call for an assault weapons ban. I commend the UNLV Police who responded immediately to put the shooter down, however.

Taylor Swift is Time Magazine’s Person of the Year. She is dating Travis Kelce, Big Pharma’s poster boy. The image manufacturing business is running full time propping these two up with backing from Big Pharma no doubt. All I do is yawn yet again because I really could give a rip about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

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.

I watched the movie “The Legend of Bagger Vance” the other night and one of the main characters, played by Matt Damon, Captain Junah, is a man haunted by his past service in World War I in which many men who served under him were killed in action. Bagger Vance, played by Will Smith, is an angel sent to help steer Junah straight and help him get through his PTSD or Shell Shock or whatever they called it after WWI. There is one scene that sticks with me and that is when Bagger tells Junah to see the course. Essentially, he is telling him to see it with his heart. See his path and what he, Junah, needs to see to play his shot. Not anyone else’s shot but his shot.

Speaking of Bagger Vance and the fact the movie takes place in the United States’ south, I happened to listen to “Simple Man” by Lynyrd Skynyrd and the lyrics are:

Mama told me when I was young

“Come sit beside me, my only son

And listen closely to what I say

And if you do this, it’ll help you some sunny day, ah yeah”

Oh, take your time, don’t live too fast

Troubles will come they will pass

You’ll find a woman, yeah, and you’ll find love

And don’t forget, son, there is someone up above

And be a simple kind of man

Oh, be something you love and understand

Baby, be a simple kind of man

Oh, won’t you do this for me, son, if you can?

Forget you lust for the rich man’s gold

All that you need is in your soul

And you do this, oh, baby, if you try

All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied

…But, be a simple, be a simple man

Oh, be something you love and understand

Baby, be a simple kind of man

There is, to me, something about this song that sums up what I have been rolling around in my mind as I observe the ramblings, rumblings and rants of the world.

The Conservative Constitutionalist needs to slow down, pull in, and remember what is really important and it certainly is not what is happening half a world away in the Middle East, Ukraine, and in China. The Conservative Constitutionalist needs to play his game and not anyone else’s game. Sure, events there can impact what is happening to me eventually and probably will and, in fact have, but for now I have found myself, along with many others, getting worked up about these events for no reason. Every time I click a link, I am supporting some large media giant sell advertisement or every time I turn on a news broadcast, I am supporting yet another media giant and helping them to sell advertising.

I believe what I am trying to say is that I have, unintentionally been supporting the rich elitists and their lifestyles at the expense of my lifestyle and letting myself be swayed to live in their world, at their pace, and to ignore what is right in front of me. It is Thanksgiving week now and I was reminded this past weekend that this is really a time of Thanksgiving unique to the American experience. It is a time to reflect on this country’s native American heritage and its melding with the early English settlers and how the early Native American’s taught and saved the early English settlers from starvation and how to live in this new world. What I was reminded of is that I am an American first and foremost. I am not a European, an Asian, a Middle Easterner, or anyone else but an American, end of story. Also, that I need to focus on what is right in front of me and not what is happening half a world away.

I had the opportunity to spend some time in Southern New Mexico last week and it was a bit depressing. The town that I was staying in is depressed and there is no way around it. Two restaurants that I had eaten in the past were shut down for good, no doubt, victims of the COVID lock downs. The only jobs to be had were servicing the travelers along the interstate, a Dollar General and government jobs. Certainly, none of these jobs are jobs in which wealth is being created for this community. Instead, one of them, the government jobs, are nothing more than redistributing wealth by taking from wealth producers in order to support the recipients.

Oh yes, it was disgusting to see how they were able to clean up and keep the riff raff away in San Francisco for the visit of Xi, the Chinese dictator, while businesses flee the corrupt, decadent, third world bung hole of California. Yes, I said bung because I dare not write what I really want to call it. California politicians and remaining business leaders really are a clear and present danger to the stability of the United States. I will not even mention the sock puppet in chief of the United States who capitulated to the dictator. In fact, it appears they are in Xi’s employee which could be considered an act of treason if one were to pursue that line of thinking.

Senator Tuberville continues his hold out against the blanket confirmation of the President’s rubber stamp of military promotions in the General and Flag Officer ranks. However, some of his so called fellow Republican Senators are considering Senator Shumer’s with a resolution to the Senate Rules Committee to essentially do an end around Senator Tuberville’s insistence that he cannot approve some of the promotions because the promotions would violate the Hyde Amendment because of the proposed military promotions are for people who support abortion. Of course, the Republicans who are willing to vote for this rules change include Senators Graham, Romney, Ernst and a couple of others, so far, that I am not familiar with. Big surprise there and what surprises me is that Senator McConnell is not on the list at least publicly but I am sure he is privately. In the amount of time, they have spent waiting for this to play out I have wonder how many of these promotions they could have individually approved or rejected? That would have just taken too much work I suppose and furthermore would have required the Senatorial staffs and Senators to take public stands on this issue, specifically, and they cannot have that with elections looming on the horizon.

It really is too bad that the funding of the Vice President was not cut as proposed by several in the House of Representatives. She really is a failure at doing her job and really should be fired. Maybe she will donate some of her salary to Secretary Buttigieg. Not likely!

Stop the presses! The Screen Actors Guild strike looks like it is over! Oh, my goodness! Time for more fresh fecal matter to be put out by Hollywood. I would imagine there is some serious constipation ready for release.

The Associated Press has cut ties with Hassan Eslaiah the free-lance photographer who was embedded with Hamas during the October 7 attack on Israel. Of course, not before photographs that he took to include a selfie with Yahya Sinwar the Hamas mastermind of the attack. I wonder how many clicks and increased revenue the AP and other news outlets received publishing Eslaiah’s photographs?

Has anyone noticed how quiet and controlled the press releases from the Israeli side of the Gazan invasion are? The Israeli’s are true masters at controlling narratives and the press. So much so that there is still no mention of why Hamas was able to penetrate Israeli defenses on October 7. I am still not convinces that Israeli Intelligence, at some lever, did not know in advance the attacks were going to occur especially when freelance photographers etc. were embedded with Hamas. The best kept secrets are secrets never told and once told they are no longer secrets. Why was there an apparent stand down at the Gazan border that allowed this attack to be so successful? It just makes me wonder.

Houthis have purportedly shot down a US Drone in or around Yemen. Geez President Biden did you do that? Did your policies of delisting the Houthis and allowing Iran, who has declared the United States and enemy, embolden if not fund the Houthis?

Pro Palestinians have defaced Britain’s Cenotaph war memorial the same week as Armistice Day. When will the west wake up to the fact that Islam is not a peace loving religion? When will Christians and others realize that Islam that demands total subservience not only religiously but politically? Islam is a religion or movement that not only subscribes how to live life but how to govern peoples. It is an insidious movement that will do whatever it takes to infiltrate and overthrow existing governing structures and install its own according to the Quran if it cannot outright invade. Just read about what happened to Constantinople in its later years and how its decay led to inviting Muslim to do menial work for the corrupt, lazy, and incompetent elites of its crumbling empire. So many parallels it makes me wonder if there is any hope for the western liberal Christian based ideal.

Finally, I will take a pause this weekend and attend an annual Veteran’s Day parade in honor of all those who have served. It usually is a solitary event for me since none in my family or immediate circle of friends usually wants to attend and quite frankly it is OK with me since none of them are veterans and they really do not understand. They do not understand that it is not just a parade for me and that I really am not alone. I am not alone in my memories of all those over the decades that I served with who have come and gone in my life. Some I liked some I did not. Some liked me and some did not like me but we all took oaths and “did our time”. I am not sure of the motivations that led others to serve our country and my motivations changed over time, quite honestly. The one thing that we all did, however, was to serve our country whether we agreed to it or not in the case of many who were drafted in Vietnam through World War II, though the numbers of those who were drafted are diminishing. The one thing we all had to learn was to be part of a team at minimum a basic level just to make it through boot camp or whatever path to a commissioning that we took. To all the Veterans out there I want to say, “thank you for your service”.

I have committed to posting something to this blog at least one time per week and lately I have been slacking a bit doing this. So, therefore, I am typing despite not really having paid much attention to anything in the news this week. Regardless, here I go.

The United States has a new Speaker of the House and it appears that he is on the side of the Neocons in his support for Israel and going to war in the Middle East. God help humanity because the puppet masters pulling strings seem to want this war so that they can maintain their power in the world and in the process kill a whole bunch of people. These people do not support life but rather are purveyors of death.

Speaking of the new Speaker, I read that he is going to allow a border and immigration bill of sorts to pass through the House. Of course, it is already being written that the Republicans in the Senate, the ringleader being Sen. McConnell, will not allow it to pass as written. This because he and others are beholden to those who are making money off the out of control border immigration issue. Is there any wonder why even the RINO Republicans are against the border wall and controlling the border. They and those who they represent are making too much money and maintaining their power with an open border. All I can do is yawn when I read these stories. The media will make a big deal out of it and nothing substantive will change except that the politicians will tout their positions this upcoming election cycle. OK before I fall asleep, I need to move onto another topic.

Out west in the United States the mainstream media is touting an El Nino year and because of its blah blah blah. Personally, I think the winter will be a little warmer than last winter because the effects of the Hua Tonga Volcano eruption will not be as pronounced in the earth’s upper atmosphere as we are now deeper into the second year after the eruption. I believe much of the light reflecting particulate has settled back into the lower atmosphere, however, there is still some residual to reflect light. This will still impact weather patterns but not as severely. It will be interesting to see how this effects the weather patterns and only time will tell, not a media report quoting the so called experts.

I read today that JP Morgan, Citibank and others are taking huge losses to the tune of 10’s of billions of dollars due to their exposures to US Treasuries. Personally, I can hardly even comprehend the quantities being bandied about and want to use scientific notation to write these figures out to aid in the ease and simplicity of writing them. Nine zeroes after the figures and the banks get to just write them off as if nothing happened as people behind closed doors in the city of Washington, New York, and San Francisco argue among themselves trying to figure out how to maintain confidence in the system.

I must ask myself why do I even worry about paying my credit cards and debt? They certainly do not because it is not the money, they are concerned about but rather it is how to maintain their lifestyles at the expense of the vast majority of the people in the country. I still wonder what would happen if the country as a whole decided not to support their lavish lifestyles in New York City, The Hamptons, San Francisco, Marin County, Washington D.C. etc.? Would there be chaos? Sure, there would be but would it be worse for the men and women who have never had to do hard work in their lives or those who already know how to wash dishes, swing a hammer, turn a wrench, farm and or hunt for the food they eat?

Speaking of the food that we eat I went to the grocery store the other day and yet another item that had not had its price raised much in the last year suddenly had nearly a 25% increase in its price. The pundits, government officials and so called experts can talk all they want but inflation is real, it is here and it is much higher than the official CPI. All this so the elites can maintain and illusion of stability so they can maintain their lifestyles on the backs of most Americans.

Sure, it makes it less expensive to pay the debt but at what cost? The inflation eats away at savings in dollars and one must devote more of his time laboring to maintain their same lifestyle. What irritates me to no end is the beneficiaries of this inflation have no clue or care one wit what it does to those who labor to maintain the elite’s lifestyles. This can only go on for so long before the system can no longer maintain itself because the dollar is no longer tied to the real economy, the economy of labor for bread, shelter, and transportation. Of course, I would imagine the socially inept geeks who made their fortunes on computers will try and make robots to do this work because we all know they do not like nor want to be with or compete with real human beings. Human beings are too unpredictable, dirty, and free thinking to their tastes unlike computers that are cold, logical and controllable.

Israel Palestine Thoughts 10/21/2023

The tension in the Middle East is palpable, or is it? Quite honestly it has impacted me by creating yet another noisy media event and some of my Israeli colleagues being called back to Israel which, in a sense, is very real, especially for them. Peacetime business is drying up and the war dogs are howling beyond the background noise of the information war that always is being fought and that will no doubt always be waged.

I cannot help but wonder what elements within the Israeli Government allowed the atrocity to be committed by the Gazan vermin who happen to follow Islam? Watching videos of the vermin breaching the border I noticed at least one surveillance balloon; empty guard towers and fence lines being breached unopposed and I am supposed to believe the vaunted Israeli Defense Forces did not notice this happening in real time and they did not have the means to stop this before it spiraled in the way it did?

What I can believe is that an oppressive government who shut an entire country down for a bad and in many cases lethal strain of manmade flu, forced its population to become a giant pharmaceutical experiment for an untried and untested genetic modification, enacted strict gun control laws, and was facing a political threat to their government engineered and allowed this attack to happen to maintain its power. This to me, is the most plausible explanation for why this happened. Furthermore, this abject failure which appears to be an engineered failure is a discussion that needs to happen now and not after it drags the whole world into a maelstrom beyond that which has already occurred and it is a discussion devoid of emotion as much as possible.

Was what the Hamas vermin did wrong? Yes! Absolutely and they should be held accountable. There is no place in my world for these vermin. However, I must ask myself, “what about the vermin who allowed this attack to happen?” which supports my assertion that the discussion needs to happen now. As an American all I must do is look at what elements within my own country are trying to do. They constantly push gun control, states followed the lead of the Federal Government’s non-elected bureaucrats in shutting down most of the country over a bad case of manmade flu, States and businesses coerced millions into taking an untried and little tested genetic modification, an open southern border that is allowing who knows through with who knows what intent, and this powerful political element is facing an existential threat to its power due to a restive populist movement. This is the same vermin that forced the Patriot Act down our throats in the highly emotional times after the attack on the World Trade Center and Pentagon and hyped the coronavirus to impose even more unconstitutional “emergency” powers over the united states of America.

War and fabricated emergencies have been the answer of autocrats, despots, and dictators for hundreds if not thousands of years when its populace becomes restive. This is nothing new and they do not fool me nor, quite frankly, do they fool many others. The purveyors of war and death become empowered from the blood of the innocent and do not give a second thought about it. I can only pray that it is not too late because a genie has been let out of its bottle and I can only wonder if the genie will go back into its bottle sooner with minimal chaos being dealt rather than later with much much more chaos being wrought in ways that I do not want to even think of.

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 am reading the California governor wants to spend $4.5 million for undocumented aliens in the tarnished state. This is ostensibly to aid the workers in labor investigations. In all actuality it is for the attorneys that represent them and knowing the corruption and cost of attorneys this money will not last long. Better to spend the money repaving a section of pot holed road in the Sierra Nevada’s or elsewhere destroyed by this last winter’s storms. Will that happen? No, Gavin Newsom has a campaign to finance after all.

ESPN is asking for the sports leagues to invest in the company that is failing. Maybe ESPN, you should report on sports and not politics and you might see your ratings rise. Not only that but eliminate some of the commercial breaks and get rid of the self-aggrandizing, racist Stephen Smith. He is nothing but poison and is one of the reasons I no longer watch your network.

Hmm, New York state has a $36 billion shortfall due to “taxpayers fleeing”. Geez, I wonder why they are fleeing.

I read a report in which Utah Representative Jason Chaffetz called on House Speaker McCarthy and Senator McConnell to press for action on the Biden family’s business dealings. Congressman Chaffetz I do not believe either one of them will push the matter because Senator McConnell and his family are just a guilty and do not want to shine light on the practices of the uni-party. I am not sure about Speaker McCarthy but his actions or lack thereof certainly indicate that he is hamstrung for some reason.

Europe seems to be on fire this week and summer as Rhodes is being evacuated and Palermo’s airport on Sicily has been closed. My cynicism is on high alert as mysterious fires have developed, like those is Canada and the US West in previous years and this year.

Yellow Freight purportedly maybe filing for bankruptcy next week. Hmm, interesting I wonder what is behind their business failure?

I think Senators Durbin and Whitehouse should be brought up for impeachment or expulsion from the Senate under High Crimes and Misdemeanors. What gives them the right to target private citizens and conservative Supreme Court Justices’ communications? This smacks of a willful infringement of Constitutional Rights.

I am watching the fallout of Britain’s Nigel Farage’s debanking as the second CEO of a bank that he was debanked from has been fired-cum-resigned. What I find interesting, as well, is that the UK Government is the majority shareholder of NatWest one of the banks that delisted Nigel Farage.

The Hunter Biden saga continues and the courts are now revealing what the alternate media has said all along. Information that has been and is still suppressed by the old media and the big tech platforms going back to the last Presidential election. What I must wonder is why now?

Fox is forcing Jason Aldean to remove BLM riot footage from his video. Yet more proof, in a long list, of why I no longer trust or watch Fox News going back to 2020.

Speaking of Senators, Sen. Tuberville is pushing the Senate to seriously review the promotion of each General and Flag officer above the rank of O-7. This means he is tasking the Senate to review the second star and above for each officer selected by the DOD which is one of the jobs of the Senate. A serious review instead of rubber stamping the nominations. After the debacle of Afghanistan, the forced COVID bio warfare injections on our service members, and the military’s focus on transgenderism etc. I think it is high time more attention be paid to these promotions. The flag and general officer corps has failed this nation and the service members who serve under them and they need to be held accountable.

I present these ramblings, rumblings, rants and revelations in a sort of stream of conscious journal format.

I am reading about the ruling by US District Court Judge Karin Immergut regarding Oregon’s new gun control law. In her opinion she mentions that large capacity magazines “are not commonly used for self-defense, are therefore not protected by the Second Amendment.” Well, it is obvious that Justice Immergut has never been in a fire fight defending herself against a well-armed attacker intent on killing her. In that type of moment 10 rounds is not going to help one defend themselves for very long.

Well, my goodness gracious now the Screen Actors Guild has gone on strike to coincide with the Writer’s Guild of America being on strike. So, nothing new will be coming out of Hollywood for a while after the productions currently finished and in the pipeline for release are finished. Wait a minute, has anything really new or refreshing come out of Hollywood in a while? Come to think of it, no.

Evidently, according to a French poll, three quarters of France would approve stripping citizenship from dual nationals who participated in the recent riots in France. Um, I would think that more stripping them of citizenship would be required such as deporting them. I am sure the once citizens of Constantinople would agree with my statement were they still alive.

Does anyone really believe that John Kerry’s trip to China had anything to do with the climate and COP28? Give me a break it is all a cover for whatever the real reason behind his trip aboard his private jet. Does the word hypocrite resonate with anyone else?

Mike Pence’s campaign keeps trying to solicit money from me. Yeah right, like I am going to support a neocon. I will give him a bit a slack in that he does have some offspring serving or having served in the military.

A cross has been burnt at a church in England, East London specifically, and this church has also been threatened with being completely burned down. Shades of Notre Dame and other Christian churches being burnt down across Europe. Does anyone believe that Mayor Sadiq Kahn will do anything about it? London has probably already fallen to the non-Christians.

I have read about the US Woman’s soccer team not paying proper respect to the US National Anthem. Shame on them and I will not pay a whiff more attention to their games.

Does anyone else get a little anxious going into July? Perhaps, it is a bit of my Irish ancestry, on both sides of The Troubles and the Orange-men July marches, getting restless. Especially, as this historically has been the marching season. The days are long, the air heavy, and everyone is waiting for the summer harvest.

I had occasion to learn of a couple who hail from the San Francisco Bay Area (Sonoma for those who are familiar) who are originally from New York City. It seems they checked into one of those Airbnb or VRBO places nearby me which is in a semi-rural location. The hosts put it in their welcoming letter that the place is semi-rural and that there may be dirt, bugs and mice on occasion but to let the hosts know as there are mouse traps set etc. Well, it seems this couple saw a spider and a beetle no longer than ½’ long crawled out of the sink in this short term rental.

The couple complained and wanted a refund as they vacated the place within hours leaving the owner out at least two nights of rental. I cannot believe how spoiled big city Americans are and they claim to be the smart ones. The ones who know what is best for me and others who do not live in the coastal big cities. The same people who cannot deal with a spider and small beetle.

So, Mark Suckerberg, whoops I mean Zuckerberg, has started Threads, purportedly to compete against Elon Musk’s Twitter. Whoa, let me sign up for yet another platform started by a socially retarded geek who is most likely just a front for a government spy agency. Meta is claiming tens of millions of new subscribers on day one of the platforms launch. Geez, I wonder how many Meta users were either automatically enrolled by bots or how many of the tens of millions are just bots? Trust me I would not want to advertise with them.

Cluster bombs to Ukraine? Throw the neocons out or better yet; let the neocons themselves, their children, and their grandchildren go to the front. Perhaps a new law, constitutional amendment or something else totally beyond the scope of reality shout be created. This would require any law maker or holder of high office to be required to serve at the front. If they are too old then some of their offspring should be required to serve at the front. If they have no offspring then they should not be allowed to debate, vote, or be part of any decision that sends other’s or their offspring to war.

Yet again more child sex abuse by those in places of influence or high office. This time at the BBC. These pedophiles should be held accountable for their crimes and the most importantly those who create, allow or turn a blind eye to these types of folks need to be held accountable as well.

Wow! It seems Elton John has finished up the last gig of his last tour. I wonder how long it will be before he returns for another last gig of his last tour. I know I know a bit of cynicism on display.

It is relieving to see that a federal court issued an injunction that prevents the federal government from colluding with social media. Hopefully, this preliminary injunction will become a permanent injunction and eventually law. What happened in the last presidential election and during the COVID hysteria must never be allowed to happen again in a “fee” society. Thank you, Senator Schmitt from Missouri.

I see President Trump paid a visit to the UFC event in Las Vegas this last weekend. I loved listening to Kid Rock in the background as he made his entrance. Just watching the Twitter feeds showing his entrance made me smile.

Hey President Biden! Perhaps you should meet with Benjamin Netanyahu, after all, I would trust the Israelis any day over anyone else over there in that part of the world. Or did they not pay enough bribe money to Hunter or whoever else is running the family enterprise? Or maybe it is they do not agree with the followers of Islam and supporters of the Iranian Mullahs that are pulling your strings?

Oh, my goodness a teacher was stabbed by a student in Britain, a county with some of the strictest gun controls in the world!!! Wtf happened, you mean violence still happens. Imagine that. As I get older and not as nimble as I once was in my youth it gives me comfort to know that I can still carry a firearm to protect myself against those who are younger and more agile than me.

Another report shows three children were among the six killed in stabbings at a kindergarten in China. China, one of the most repressed countries in the world. If just one adult in the school had a firearm how many of the dead would be dead now?

Juneteenth!? OK, I get there is good reason to celebrate and honor the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation as slavery wrong in so many ways. It is a stain on American history that we should never forget or try to sweep under the rug, so to speak. It is when we try to pretend that something does not exist or has never happened that the ugly part of humanity can rear its ugly head again. It seems that it already is in the guise of human trafficking, the sex trade, and child labor being imported through our southern border with near impunity. Is it good to honor the freeing of the African slaves in the United States? Sure, but do we need another holiday for the government working class to honor this day?

I am waking up after more than a month and a half of working on a project and the subsequent catching up required on my other projects. Needless to say, the sun is just about at its most northern arc across the sky and the days are the longest they will be for the year as a result.

One thing that I have noticed is the weather is cooler this year and the light does seem dimmer. I have lived in the area where I am for most of my life and it just seems a little odd that the sky seems to always have a dusty or light smokey quality. Perhaps it is because I am downwind from the cesspool known as California?

President Trump has been indicted on what appear to be erroneous Federal charges that one of the Clinton was cleared of at the Supreme Court level. This at the same time news is starting to leak that Joe Biden took a $10 million bribe. Geez, do you think this is coincidental? Spin spin spin, if one were to pay attention too closely to the news cycle they could feel as if they were in a laundry machine set for high spin.

It finally has come to my town. A drag queen story hour has been held at one of my local libraries and one is scheduled to be held at two of the other libraries in the greater community. Why is this happening? What is the agenda of these people?

Random Musings on Current Events 4.28.23

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.

Monday morning and Tucker Carlson and Bob Lemon have both lost their jobs with their respective networks. Is this a coordinated action between two supposedly independent media organizations? It sure seems suspicious considering they are about as far apart from center as are their former employees, supposedly. Call me cynical but I must wonder if there is another power behind the curtain pulling the levers?

Speaking of FOX and Tucker Carlson no longer being with the network I see reports of Fox’s stock dropping sharply and many people unsubscribing from FOX Nation. Is this yet another example of leftist politics driving business decisions, for instance Anheuser Busch’s Bud Light? I just learned that Arnon Mishkin had been rehired by FOX News to cover the 2022 and 2024 elections. I will never forget the moment when Chris Stirewalt insisted that Arizona was going against Trump when Florida had still not been called in the 2020 Presidential Election evidently, it seems, at the direction of Mr. Mishkin.

Mr. Murdoch, I suspected all along that you were very uneasy with populism and especially original American values. I understand this considering that you were raised and become wealthy in a country still under the overt rule of Britain’s Crown. I have always suspected that Tucker Carlson made you and your fellow internationalists in and out of your company quite uneasy but I respected that you supported your stockholders and their investments. I know, however, know that you will sell yourself for political reasons and that Mr. Carlson’s show was the last program on Fox News that I watched. I only thank God that I am not a stockholder in your company because you do not have their best interests at heart. You have lost half of the United States with either your decision to let Mr. Carlson go or creating an environment that he had no choice but to leave Fox News.

The ideological war in the United States is truly escalating when large corporations no longer hold the best interest of their stockholders as a priority over ingratiating themselves with ideologues. The US broadcast media is now being guided by one overarching ideology and it is that of war with Russia and war with China while one of their biggest advertising revenue streams is Big Pharma.

The US is evacuating all embassy staff from Sudan and at the same time providing no readily visible alternative or communications to other US citizens living in Sudan. It seems eerily familiar and reminiscent of the pullout from Afghanistan. Is there any competent people at the helm in the State Department?

Susan Rice has announced her resignation from the Biden Administration. Of course, the spin is she only agreed to two years and is going to spend more time with her family. From what I understand Susan Rice is one of the vicious power hungry leftists in the Obama, pardon me, Biden Administration. I wonder what really is happening and where she is headed? I suppose time will tell.
