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 have been quiet the past couple of weeks because I, quite frankly, need a break from all of the junk on the news coming from both sides. However, I just watched the Clint Eastwood story of Richard Jewell, the security guard initially accused of planting the bomb at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. Needless to say, the movie left me angry and reminded me and brought my mind back to current events. Specifically, what brought my attention back is how in the story and unholy alliance between and FBI agent and a member of the press unleashed a witch hunt on an innocent man. An innocent man who was smeared and whose family was put through a press fueled ringer. All this for a crime committed by a man who later plead guilty to the crime.

So, if this happened more than 24 years ago how am I to believe, in today’s world anything that the FBI or government bureaucrats say? How am I to be expected to believe anything that the media says? So, now we have the FBI who spied on citizen and President Trump based on trumped up (all pun intended) charges when they claim Russian interference is responsible for Hunter Biden’s computer being left at a computer repair shop? How am I to believe all the major press outlets print and digital with the exception of Fox News and the New York Post? How am I supposed to believe all who appear to be in an all-out blitz to prevent President Trump from being reelected?

Oh yes, has anyone else found it fascinating that COVID cases are on the rise within mere weeks of the election?

Governor Newsome is now recommending that Thanksgiving celebrations in California? I am shaking my head.

I also have been traveling and have in fact flow into and a little out of the swamp of Washington DC in the last week and perhaps this is why I can not longer avoid the news and have to write something. It seeps out of the television and where I am staying, I am seeing BLM t shirts and hats being worn by people openly. I have to admit that my first thoughts are to ask if the people wearing them understand that they are supporting a Marxist organization?

Also, I have been watching CSPAN 2 the last couple of mornings and have to admit that I am unsure what to say. On one morning being interviewed by Karen Tumotty of the Washington Post were the coauthors of a book called Presidents, Populism, and Crisis of Democracy: Terry Moe and William Howell. This morning a woman named Tara McGowen was one of the people being interviewed and each morning the named people were Progressive apologists and supporters of the Progressive movement. Again, I felt a visceral reaction as these people are quite eloquent and truly believe in what they are saying. To be honest this is what frightens me. This frightens me because I do not believe these intellectuals really give a rip about me nor do they understand the laws of physics. I think these people truly believe that because they say something it is true and if anyone disagrees with them, they will do whatever it takes to suppress opposing views. Perhaps, they are being paid by Facebook, Google, and or Amazon? This is a small example of the problem that exists in our institutes of higher learning. Their minds are made up and using circular logic they are professing to know what is best for me.

Good on the Justice Department for filing a suit against Google. I am still waiting to see how people who ran a coup against a duly elected President are going to pay for their crimes.

I think I may have a new byline for my home page, and it is going to be something like, “Eventually the laws of physics will trump the laws of man”. The question is when and in what form will the laws of physics push back and slap the laws of man in the face?

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!

Since I was working at something last night, I missed the beginning of the Presidential Debate. I did listen to it on my drive home and watched the last half hour or so once I got home. I have the following comments:

Chris Wallace pinged on President Trump and certainly was not objective. He even seemed to bail Joe Biden out more than once.

The debate format stunk.

President Trump never once mentioned draining the swamp. I hope he has not become a permanent denizen.

Joe Biden was either very well rested or on some sort of drugs.

I think the Trump team should bring some radio jamming equipment with them next time. At times it looked like Joe Biden was listening to someone for his response and a simple visual inspection is not enough to confirm the presence or absence of an earpiece. Surgically implanted? Perhaps.

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.

I had to laugh at Richard Grenell dressing down the reporter at today’s press briefing ostensibly held to discuss the Serbian Kosovo discussions and each establishing diplomatic relations with Israel. Mr. Grenell, I remember what was happening over there more than two decades ago and I agree with you that this is a big deal. A bigger deal than sadly many understand.

I was disturbed by a conversation between someone my age and youngsters who are the product of my states public school education and one a graduate of my local state university. In the conversation the college graduate kept repeating the typical left leaning talking points. Asking myself where they learned this as I know they did not learn these points growing up I can only surmise that it came from the schools they have attended. Taking this a step further I can see, first had, that something needs to be done to our institutions of learning.

Watching Fox last I was struck my Tucker Carlson pointing out the groups who have been endorsed by members of Congress and several in Hollywood. I have to wonder if there are legal repercussions that can be brought to bear on these left wing hate groups? Specifically, can the businesses who have been destroyed as a result of the violence fomented by these groups bring suit for civil penalties against these groups? Additionally, could criminal charges be brought against some of these groups and their donors for the violence fomented and what to me are seditious actions?

I never have really liked the articles that have started reading in The Atlantic in the past. Now I guess I will never try reading another article in the rag. I cannot believe the article saying President Trump said disparaging things about veterans was vetted by the DNC. Hmmm, do you think this may have been a side swiping politically motivated article? To me what The Atlantic reported something more like what Hillary Clinton or Perhaps Mrs. Pelosi might say. Hair? Give me a break.

Mr. President! Do you feel as if you are being stalked or perhaps have someone following you? Someone who seems to want to suddenly say the same things that you say and visit the same places that you visit? I think perhaps you do have someone doing this to you, however, you will not be able to send the Secret Service to investigate this person. I do not suppose it would be fitting considering this person, Joe Bidden, has his own Secret Service detail guarding him. I find it interesting, after listening to the speech he gave on Monday, that the speech ended sounding eerily like the speeches at the Republican National Convention last week. He even said God Bless America at the end. Not only that he decided to visit Kenosha today just days after your visit. Something sinister is afoot here. I do think, Mr. President, that you truly are being followed. Please do not let your guard down because that person, I am quite confident, can and will catch you if given half a chance.

Shocking!!! The city of Seattle has finally decided to clean out the park at the center of their own version of Marxistan and what do they find? Weapons, spike strips, and all sorts of other equipment used for rioting. All the while people are questioning in a yelling manner who is going to look out for the homeless? This because the professional rioters are claiming to protect the homeless. Well, memo to protesters, the police are finally being allowed to protect taxpayers!

Mrs. Pelosi I know you are vain and it comes as no surprise that you have been able to keep your hair colored and cut and maybe even get a nip a tuck though I am not sure of the later during the so called pandemic shutdowns. I rolled my eyes because I figured you probably had someone coming to your home and you know I cannot afford something like that but I know you can so I though to myself, “so what”. Now, however, I see that you have been sneaking into a shut down hair salon the whole time! A hair salon that has been forced to be shutdown and the owner maybe going out of business! Then you have the gall to claim that you were set up!?!? Maybe you were set up and you know what? You should have been set up and I am glad the store owner leaked the security tape. Oh, and though I live in a state that allows salons to open we have to wear masks and there are plexiglass windows and the governor of my state even has his gestapo (state OSHA officials) running around checking on businesses to ensure they are in compliance. If not, the salon is fined $5,000 the stylist $3,000 and the customer $2,000. So, needless to say when getting hair washed, everyone must wear a mask! Mrs. Pelosi, you are nothing but a hypocrite and cheap thug. What happened, did you just forget to read the fine print and just thought to yourself that you would figure it out? Now your minions are threatening, insulting, and bullying the salon owner! Apparently, the abuse of power is routine for you because it seems to be someone else’s fault and not yours.

I say take Tik Tok down and I am glad to see the restrictions being put on Chinese diplomats. What I find insidious is how the CCP is using the youth of America to insinuate their intelligence apparatus on and into American culture. I listen to my kids and they are upset that President Trump is going after Tik Tok which is one of my kid’s favorite apps. Honestly, I am breathing a bit easier knowing the President is going after Tik Tok and has restricted the diplomat’s freedom of movement.

I had a thought the other day after listening to some news report somewhere or perhaps it was after listening to or reading several news stories. Particularly this thought went to voting and all the hoopla surrounding mail in and etc. I for one am against all mail in voting except for absentee. In fact, I have voted absentee while on duty in the military and was grateful for this opportunity. But what strikes me is this push to make voting convenient. First it was early voting and now it is mail in voting and a push to provide time off and etc. I am ok taking a day off to allow voting but mail in voting I do not think so. Anyway, the thought that came to me is, “Voting is a right and responsibility and it is not supposed to be a convenience!”

I keep seeing the image of Senator Paul holding up the police officer who had been assaulted by the mob that had surrounded the Senator and the police escorting the Senator and his wife back to their hotel. This was not a peaceful protest nor a peaceful situation and nothing bad would have come from it had the police not been there. I find it frightening that these protests have gotten to the point that they have gotten. Furthermore, what bothers me are the thoughts that I am starting to have with regards to making myself prepared to defend myself and my love ones. Preparations that I never would have imagined that I would have to make in the United States when I was serving in Afghanistan. I ask why has this lawlessness been allowed to deteriorate the point that it has? It is also plain to see the ignorance of those who surrounded the Senator regarding his legislative agenda in general. Or was it truly not ignorance on the organizers of the riotous behavior but something more sinister at its roots?

Oh, and memo to LeBron James and your fellow NBA players since you have chosen to boycott the NBA for a couple of games? Well I am going to boycott the NBA for at least a season or two. Screw you and imaginary horse you rode in on! I will not support a Marxist sympathizer nor a Marxist sympathizing organization. I know there are racial injustices and I have witnessed it, but Marxism is not the answer and I will fight it. Get an education before you spout uneducated diatribes that bite the hand that feeds you. Or better yet, move to China since you seem to like the CCP better than the United States. Go ahead and renounce your citizenship and get the f*&k out of my country!!!

Mr. Silver, you and rest of the professional sports organization better wake up and wake up quick. You have lost me and others who have been lifelong sports fans for the first time ever are doubting whether they will continue being fans. Quite catering to the lowest denominator. Educate about the evils of racism yes but supporting Marxist organizations and movements is going to cost you if it is not already costing you.

Tim Cook, same to you. The status quo is probably not the best but Marxism is a dark dark road and if you think you will be immune good luck. I am sure there were some powerful businessmen in France, Russia, China, Vietnam, and Venezuela who thought they were immune too. That is unless they voluntarily took their knee to whatever dictator it was that rose to the top of the anarchy, chaos, and brutality.

So, Riot Kitchen members were arrested with gasoline filled fuel cans, helmets, gas masks, protective vests, illegal fireworks, attempted escape and are members of an Antifa linked terrorist organization? Let’s see a group from Seattle in Michigan, with instruments of violence, resisting search? Hmmm, I am sure there is a federal statue somewhere that can put these bad actors out of service for a while.

I was impressed and glad to see no Hollywood speakers during the RNC this past week. It may explain why I watched the whole convention after the first night. Oh, and that firework display was amazing! I wanted to be there and watch it firsthand and it reminded me how the Democratic Governor of my state put such a wet blanket on all the Fourth of July celebrations in my state. I will definitely not forget. I love, amongst many other one liners from President Trump’s speech, “The Biden agenda is made in China, mine is made in America.”

Oh yes and where is Kamala Harris denouncing the killing of Patrick Underwood in her hometown of Oakland, California? It disgusts me.

The Purge, great ad.

I read the three men shot by Kyle Rittenhouse were each a felon! He was using a weapon loaned to him by a friend who lives in Kenosha after helping his friend clean up graffiti all day and, additionally, he and his friend were asked by the owner of the auto shop to help in its defense. Again, it is good to let the facts come out before rushing to judgement regardless if waiting fits one’s narrative or not.

I watched the entire RNC telecast last night which, I admit, is the first live coverage of any convention I have watched since watching my first which was with my Grandparents in 1976. This was the convention that Ronald Regan lost to Gerald Ford and we all know how the election turned out in November of 1976. Something ironic about that is my grandparents were die hard democrats and had nothing good to say about “The Actor”.

First off, I enjoyed watching and listening to the five people take the Oath of Citizenship. I have to be honest that I have never listened nor read this oath before and I was humbled. To listen to these people voluntarily renounce allegiance to their previous government was as I just wrote, humbling. I think every high school civics or government class could include a reading of this oath. Having taken the military oath a few times I noted the similarities and differences. The one striking similarity that I noticed that both have the oath taker protecting The Constitution of the United States against all enemies both foreign and domestic.

Of course, this was a nice set up for First Lady Trump who herself has taken the Oath of Citizenship. For her speech I only have a couple of words and that she is a smart lady and one has to respect her journey based on her own merits at a minimum if nothing else.

Kentucky Attorney General Cameron rocked. He came across as poised, self-confident, intelligent and a politician. The last I would not consider a positive, however, the fact that his parents owned a coffee shop when he was young certainly helped to shape his outlook on life. In other words, I like his small business background and I hope he did not forget this in law school.

I noted after the conclusion of the RNC for the night Fox News had Chris Wallace speak last. What struck me is Chis Wallace’s talk about the president using the White House for a political convention and Secretary of State Pompeo being the first Secretary of State to speak at a convention. Ok, by themselves these are good points and should raise an eyebrow and Mr. Wallace did after pointing this out. However, let us take these comments into context. First, these are the first pandemic conventions with social distancing requirements and all the fear that comes along with a pandemic. Second, let us not forget all the other precedents that have been broken by the Democrats going back to President Roosevelt breaking through the two term limit and recently the weaponization of the DOJ and FBI against a political foe, and the completely partisan impeachment. Mr. Fox give me a break and I have to wonder why Fox gave Juan Williams and Chris Wallace the last word amongst pundits?

Ok, my mind took a dark turn this morning thinking about the possibility of a contested election as Hillary Clinton seems to be calling for. What if this goes on and the UN decides they need to send in “peace keeping” forces? Could this be the end game? No no no, the globalist elites would never endorse such a thing. Yes, there may have been some sarcasm dripping from the last sentence and yes, I agree it is far fetched but if I am thinking about it I have to believe someone else could be thinking about it.

Lastly, Kenosha, Wisconsin. The riots took a dark turn last night and not necessarily for the good. I see this afternoon that a young 17 year old has been arrested but I will not rush to judgement. I see the governor and others are now calling for an end to the violence and more National Guard is being called in. My first reaction is to say to the governor why did you wait for people to be killed? You had to know the way it was going to play out considering all that has happened this summer since the George Floyd death.

Quite honestly, I was beginning to wonder how long it was going to take before something like last night happened. When business owners, who are tax paying citizens, cannot expect or trust their government to protect their businesses there is going to come a point when the businesses owners are going to protect their businesses with or without the government. Governor Evers, and the other governors out there, can you blame the formation of groups like The Boogaloos from occurring? Remember the businesses pay taxes and license fees and provide employment. When you deliberately do not allow the police to do their jobs nor do you allow others to help people will be forced to take matters into their own hands or be destroyed. This is not a good thing because what this means is that people have lost faith in your government. This is dangerous and can lead to much pain and heartache. Quite honestly, the responsibility rests on the current batch of local elected leaders in my opinion. Elected leaders who seem unqualified, cynical, corrupt and or generally unsuited for their jobs.

My condolences to President Trump on the loss of his brother. It sucks and there is no better why to state it in my opinion. May he rest in peace.

Moving on I must believe that China is a testing and proving ground for the use of technology and its use in the suppression of a people. I see what the FANGS are doing to the conservative movement and it is obvious that they have perfected this suppression and their explanations for why they are doing it. Straight from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Playbook and perfected in China at the behest of the CCP.

Another place of rioting has erupted in Wisconsin. I will be the first to say that I have no idea what happened but unlike the Wisconsin I am not going to rush to judgement. Of course it is too late now for the helpless businesses, churches, and innocent citizens as the Wisconsin governor, a Democrat, has already let his genie out of the bottle so to speak and has further fanned to lawless rioting that is occurring. I ask the citizens behind the lines in Democrat controlled states and cities when are you going to wake up and realize that when you continually vote these people in there will be no meaningful change? At least with President Trump he has done something meaningful. No thanks to the RINO’s and entrenched Washington bureaucracy.

The Republican Convention is starting and I wonder if theirs will be any more exciting than the Democratic Convention. Please do not get me wrong as I have never watched a convention in its entirety because I would rather poke my eyes out. However, I do realize that these can be important places for party leadership to meet, candidates to socialize with party leadership and a cohesive plan to campaign can be worked out. What I wonder with all this COVID bull is if this will be possible this year? I wonder what is going to happen to the Republican Party since it appears the Bushites are continuing to their true party. The Progressive Party which if anyone could see they belonged to all along. Will the Neocons continue their defection to the Democratic Party also? Who will stay behind and try to sabotage President Trump’s reelection campaign as I am sure some will do? Will there be enough left behind or will President Trump’s organization continue to have what it takes to keep the White House? I certainly hope so for the sake of free markets and the US Constitution.

Fifty three years ago the Summer of Love happened in San Francisco in which, apparently, the media fawned over the hippies and their “counterculture” movement. Now, fifty three years later with some of those same hippies and their acolytes fully ensconced in power it appears the counterculture movement has morphed. Now they organize and support the Summer of Hate counterculture movement.

I read a great sign the other day and it said, “Do not question authority, they do not know the answer either.”

I wonder how much money from international donors goes to finance domestic political campaigns.

To the General and Flag officers of the US military. Please do not allow the COVID vaccine to be tested on the members of the military. Remember the junior members of the military are in your charge.

I watched a shingles vaccine commercial the other day and all of the actors were elderly. Then it suddenly dawned upon me that the COVID response is a Baby Boom Generation response. I say this because the Baby Boom generation essentially is the generation in charge of government at the present time. Judging by history this is one of the most selfish generations ever in the United States and now, when faced with their own mortality, what do they do and support? It appears to me that a lot of the fear that is currently being peddled is being directed at the elderly and for good reason considering the elderly are most likely to be killed or experience long term effects from the virus. But shut down the whole nation and its economy? Like everything else the Baby Boomers will leave a wide wake behind them as they depart. Their mantra seems to be if I cannot have fun then you cannot have fun!

What is up with Justice Roberts siding with allowing the State of Nevada to keep churches closed? What happened to the separation of church and state and First Amendment Rights? I say church and state because the secular progressive dogma has infiltrated the state, evidently.

I heard a couple of weeks ago that Mayor DeBlasio of New York City is putting up COVID check points going into the city. It really does not bother be because why would I want to visit that s&*t hole?

I read something else somewhere that the Silicon Valley FANGS are scrubbing data from their websites. In particular, any data supporting conservative principals or counter to the progressive Marxist agenda. George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty Four’s dystopia is knocking on our door!

I wonder what would happen if I showed up in Portland with a wheelbarrow full of Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto and started burning them? I wonder if the response would be the same as if I showed up with a wheelbarrow full of Holy Bibles?
