You're first, fat boy!




"Lukashenko and Putin deserve no quarter, and none shall be given. They are the worst of the bad apples. They are part of the the Fourth Horseman - the one called death."   


I have grown weary of watching the carnage in Ukraine. I have grown weary of those lying murderous Russians, targeting civilians. And I have REALLY grown weary of being threatened by Vladimir Putin. If not threatening us, threatening our allies. Threatening NATO. Russia does not have the chops to hurt NATO using his conventional forces (which are shrinking fast). But because he was 6,000 or so nukes, he thinks he is the cock of the walk.

Right about now, it would be wonderful to have a normal President. Someone who has the balls to talk to Russia the right way. For example, this puppet whom Putin helped install in Belarus - Lukashenko - wants to be part of the fray. Okay, so be it. If I were President, I would look directly into the camera and say, "If there is any attack on NATO, Belarus will be the first to pay the price. If there is any nuclear device used on NATO, we will turn Belarus into a wasteland."

Right now, all this saber rattling that Russia is doing, is bolstering NATO forces. NATO now has 300,000 troops in the area. The United States is going to put a permanent base in Poland. Why? Russia has threatened Poland. If Russia ever did invade Poland, they would be crossing the Rubicon. War in Europe would break out immediately. Hopefully, having a base in Poland would blunt any adventuresome movements by the Red Army.

By the way, the addition of Sweden and Finland to NATO cannot be emphasized enough. This is HUGE. Probably should have been done years ago, but the political spirit and will was not there until Russian invaded Ukraine. That tipped the scales.

Because the horrors and bloodshed from World War II are still fresh in many minds in Europe, most really don't want to see this movie again. Right now, with NATO troops being 300,000 strong (and growing), that should (we hope) give Putin pause.

On final thing. President Zelenskyy has released some footage of the missile impacting the shopping mall. The Russians denied this ever happened, but the video evidence shows otherwise. This will be yet one more chapter in the book of war crimes which is being put together against Russia. Does Lukashenko also want to be named in this book? Keep he keeps playing with Putin, and no doubt he will be.

Okay fat boy - listen up. You might have chased Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya out of the country, but her voice remains strong for the independent minded folks of Belarus. If you lead your country into ruin, that is all on you - most of your people want no part of it. Evil men like you and Putin, are whom enslave their citizens and turn their soldiers into war criminals. 

Lukashenko and Putin deserve no quarter, and none shall be given. They are the worst of the bad apples. They are part of the the Fourth Horseman - the one called death.

The trials of misdeeds





"We need to un-ring this bell as much as possible. This unfortunate series of events, which started a year ago last January on Inauguration day, needs to be fixed, and fixed fast. Are Republicans perfect? Far from it. Can they screw things up on occasion? Yep. But they know better than to deliver a fatal blow to our economy. That skill - belongs solely to the Democrats." 



The "stunt" which was pulled on January 6th, was nothing compared to the misdeeds which have been done during the runup to the 2016 elections, the aftermath of the Floyd issue, the entire "deep state" interference of the Trump Presidency, and of course, the disaster which is now called the Biden Administration. One of my left of center friends is concerned that when the adults retake the room next January, nothing but investigations will get done. He is right - do a degree. 

Someone has a great meme on social media. "I remember exactly what happened on January 6th. It cost less than $30 to fill up my car." Bingo! If we are going to call this stunt an "insurrection", than we will call all misdeeds just listed insurrections also. For example, what happened in Minneapolis for three days immediately following the Floyd issue, was a hundred - no a thousand times worse than what happened in Washington on January 6th. It was a war. And the aftermath of the Floyd riots? Crickets. Yawns. The cabal of an owned press, and the Democrats, have smothered the truth of that debacle.

How bad are things right now? This constant tidal wave of immigrants, many of whom say Biden invited them here, suffered a major tragedy yesterday. In the scorching heat of the southwest, smugglers managed to get about 60 illegals over the border in a panel truck. Then for reasons unknown, they abandoned the truck. That allowed these poor souls to literally "cook". When the truck was discovered, over 40 were dead. For this alone, Mayorkas needs to be impeached, and do the perp walk.

What happened on January 6th, was so minor compared to these other misdeeds, it is laughable. Do I agree with the stunt which happened that day? Not a bit. Do I understand the frustration of people who witnessed four years of Democrat malfeasance? Actually, yes. That being said, I still would have not been part of the stunt. All it did, was give Democrats ammo to use against the citizens and patriots. It was foolish.

What needs to be fixed in our country once the adults retake the room in January? Just about everything. The House and Senate need to pick up where the Supreme Court left off. They need to blunt everything Slo Joe and his minions have done or are trying to do to this country. Reverse what they can. In other words, they need to save us before we sink. Before Biden gets us into a nuclear shooting match with the Russians.

We need to un-ring this bell as much as possible. This unfortunate series of events, which started a year ago last January on Inauguration day, needs to be fixed, and fixed fast. Are Republicans perfect? Far from it. Can they screw things up on occasion? Yep. But they know better than to deliver a fatal blow to our economy. That skill - belongs solely to the Democrats.

Meanwhile, back at the war...





"We continue to stay on the precipice of somebody doing something very stupid over there. Like - letting the nuclear genie out of the bottle. If that happens, we will be in new territory, with very few exit ramps."  



ICYMI - Slo Joe is over in Europe right now, meeting with our G-7 allies. Showing the flag, so to speak. A bit of a pep talk. You see, the folks over in Europe right now are almost on the front lines. Way, way too close to Mother Russia. And things in Ukraine are going from bad to worse. 

First the good news. British intel is showing the Russians are running out of just about everything - everything needed to sustain their war effort. Lots of body bags, lots of destroyed armor, lots of lost aircraft, and a fair number of ships being sunk. I mean come on folks! This is Russia we are talking about! Going up against a far inferior army like Ukraine? Take away the nukes, and a fight between NATO and Russia would be a turkey shoot. 

Now the bad news. Russia is using the much dreaded thermobaric weapon on targets in Ukraine. These are nasty things, which can kill in the most horrible way. Why are the Russians using these types of weapons? They have little choice. This "slugfest" with the Ukrainian Army is proving very costly to both sides. It is a war of attrition, and Russia cannot afford to "attrit" much longer. 

Back to the good news. United States supplied Harpoon missiles have proven to be very effective for Ukraine. It has taken the Black Sea fleet, and pushed it way back, out of effective range of the Harpoon. President Zelenskyy is convinced if the Russian fleet were closer, they would be raining hell down on port cities like Odessa. Again, the Ukrainians have taken out a lot of Russian ships, even though Ukraine has not put one of their own ships to sea. When this war is over, that should be one of the major tag lines.

Now the real bad news. Putin has promised the nut ball who is charge of Belarus, Iskander - M missiles. These are capable of being tipped with nuclear warheads. With a range of 300 miles, it puts quite a bit of the Euro zone in play. This is a dumb, dumb thing to do. Now besides having someone like Putin with an itchy trigger finger, we have another loose canon like Lukashenko, with access to nukes.

How is the war going? Not well for anyone. Lots, and lots of death. Many children in Ukraine are orphaned or displaced. Russia's war machine has taken a huge hit. Many countries in Europe are now seeing the financial consequences of this war.

We continue to stay on the precipice of somebody doing something very stupid over there. Like - letting the nuclear genie out of the bottle. If that happens, we will be in new territory, with very few exit ramps.

"Can't we all just get along?"





"If the left choses to gnash their teeth, howl at the moon, yell at everyone, and threaten our judges - that is on them. I would hope they would not. What the courts did was fix a couple of knots in our national fabric this week. Things which needed to be done. Now it is over. Time to move on. Time to all get along."  



Whom, who was alive during that time, could ever forget the plea of Rodney King after he was beaten by four white cops - all of which were charged and then acquitted? In 1992, the city of Los Angles exploded in riots and violence. A truck driver named Reginald Denny was pulled from his truck and beaten - because he was white. Things got so bad, the person who initially who was wronged - Rodney King - publicly pleaded for all of us to just "get along."

Rodney King, who unfortunately is no longer with us, would be helpful to have around right now. Why? He could see the greater good. Even though he was wronged, he wanted the violent aftermath to end. He wanted all of us to get along. Maybe (my words, not his), to forgive and forget. 

After this week's SCOTUS rulings, especially the ones on 2A and abortion, our Democrat leaders, especially the President and the Speaker of the House, showed anything but leadership. They threw the "Trumpian" Supreme Court under the bus, and all but encouraged protests (albeit, this time, non-violent). They also encouraged everyone to remember this day - where the courts let the people down. "We need to codify Roe!" screamed our Roman Catholic President and Speaker. "We need to elect people who will support a woman's right to choose! It is a right which the court has now taken away!"

Really? Here is what the court really said. Roe was flawed law. Should have always been an Article 10 issue. The court also said the Second Amendment was sacrosanct. Our rights which accrue to that amendment, do not end when you walk out the door of your house. That is it. Simple as that. The 2A ruling was about what was already in our Constitution, and the Roe ruling was about something which was never in our Constitution. What? You don't like our Constitution? Good news for you - there are ways to change it. Not easy ways - but ways. 

Now this week is about to pass into history. What happened in the Supreme Court is over. Time to move on. As Rodney King said, "Are we all going to now get along?" I am ready to. Time to address our nation's real problems. Time to fix things. Time to move forward. 

If the left choses to gnash their teeth, howl at the moon, yell at everyone, and threaten our judges - that is on them. I would hope they would not. What the courts did, was fix a couple of knots in our national fabric this week. Things which needed to be done. Now it is over. Time to move on. Time to all get along.

Birth of a nation!





"This should not be political. It should have never been political. But it is. And that is unfortunate, as it is ripping this country apart."

 


One thing I have never found, is someone who is 50/50 on abortion. People either love it, or hate it. Not much turf between those two positions. Because of that, when Roe was overturned today, half the country went into toxic shock. The other half said a prayer of thanksgiving. But there is much more to this decision - if folks would take the time to stop, look, and listen.

Roe v. Wade was flawed law. Hey - not my words. Those are the words of RBG. Although very much pro-choice, she was not pro - Roe v. Wade. In fact, most legal scholars worth a salt and have a lick of honesty, would say the same thing. From day one, this should have been an Article 10 issue. It was NOT a right, as guaranteed to us by the Founders. The entire Constitution is silent on abortion. To take this out of federal law, and return it to the states, was the right thing to do.

Will this end the killing of the unborn? Not even close. My home state, Minnesota, will still practice abortion. Colorado will perform abortions up until birth - up until infanticide. "Woke" corporations like Amazon, have already told employees they will give them money to travel to states in which abortion is legal.

Many on the left, who think the judicial branch is only a part of their ideology, have promised "days of rage". What does that mean? First off, they feel betrayed. The courts usually always side with them, even when it may not make Constitutional sense. Next, they will take their revenge out on the cities. Like George Floyd, all over again. BURN IT DOWN! MAKE THEM BLEED! (Hint: might be a good idea to stay out of the downtowns for a while).

There will be some states which recognize life at conception. Other states, life begins at the "quickening". Still others, like Colorado, life is not life until the baby is out of the birth canal, and makes its first cry.

From a faith based position, I know where I stand. This should not be political. It should have never been political. But it is. And that is unfortunate, as it is ripping this country apart.

🎵Leaving, on a jet plane🎵...(or NOT!)






"This could be the summer of discontent for many of us. Vacation? In your dreams, baby. Those days might becoming just a memory."    



Headed out of town this weekend? Going to fly? Good luck with that one! Last weekend, we had over 10,000 flights which were either cancelled or delayed. 10,000! Does nothing work anymore in our country? What is the boy wonder, Mayor Pete, doing about this? Same thing he did about our container ship mess at our ports. Nada. But he is being very PC, by taking maternity leave, so his husband can continue to "bring home the bacon." 

We have a hot mess stacked on top of a cluster right now with our air travel. What was at one time pretty much routine, has become anything but. Why? Mostly staffing. Some weather, for sure. But the staffing is the big problem. And what is the government doing to help this situation? Mayor Pete? Hello? Is anything being done, or is this the way things are going to be from now on? 

I traveled quite a bit in my working days. If not for work, then for the Navy, I spend a lot of time in the air, or at airports. Sure, I had the occasional delay. Or even a less common cancelation. But those were rare, and not common. These days, air travel is a crap shoot. And if you do get on a flight, most times you are packed in like a sardine in a can. No comfort, no perks, no nothing.

We are suppose to fly out later this year to go on a cruise. I can't wait (satire). The last time we flew out for a cruise, we were on a small jet, loaded to the gills. It was about as much fun as having a root canal. HOWEVER (comma), between a flight like that, and not getting on any plane to make our cruise - I will take the sardine can. Will Howdy Doody be able to fix this very important transpiration issue prior to us leaving? I doubt it.

"The golden age of transportation is over." That is the name of an article I read the other day. I guess what Biden and Pete Butt wants us to do is practice the art of staycation. This could be the summer of discontent for many of us. Vacation? In your dreams, baby. Those days might becoming just a memory.

Old and stale bread





"Maybe we need a futurist as a cabinet position. Someone who really knows how to think and imagine, while still being rooted in reality. Do we only have one person, out of over 300 million who knows how to think and imagine?"


Got up this morning, and went into the kitchen to find some breakfast. As usual, there was very little new and exciting to munch on. Like, all we had was the leftovers from a loaf of bread. And since we have had it for a while (actually, a long while), it was old and stale. 

Okay - that was a fable. But the "old and stale" thing came to mind when I heard on the news today, the Administration was going to (try and) authorize a "fuel tax holiday" for three months. On all diesel and gasoline. How is that going to work? We just won't be collecting monies for the highway trust fund. Wait - what? I thought we were in dire need of infrastructure improvement. How do we square that circle? Good question. And that, brought up another foolish idea from years past.

During the now infamous "stagflation" period of Jimmy Carter, another foolish idea was floated. The economy was SO BAD (yes, even worse than now), Carter's wizards of smart wanted a "FICA holiday". Same flawed logic as a gasoline tax holiday. FICA funds our Social Security fund. Even back then, there was talk about Social Security running out of money. So what logic, if any, would come from a "FICA holiday"? None. Fortunately, it never happened. It was another "old and stale bread" solution.

We need some new and crisp thinking, with new and crisp ideas leading to new and crisp solutions. I can't remember when I heard something new and exciting coming out of Washington, DC or St. Paul. Nothing. Nada.

I read an article online yesterday by a transportation expert. His thesis was our "golden age" of transportation might be over. Congestion and cancellations at airports, and expensive gasoline. People just won't travel as much. Are we going to just roll over, like a sick dog, and take it? Or, are we going to come up with some new and crisp thinking to give us some new and crisp solutions?

No offense to anyone who has a dog in this fight, but we need a new breed of people in government who really know how to think. No more old and stale thinking giving us old and stale solutions. One moderate Democrat, who my wife and I like to listen to, has a new and crisp solution for our gas woes. Do everything, including opening up ALL out drilling. Come up with a plan, how the country will phase into EV or other renewables by the end of the decade. Right now, our transportation is a cluster. No thinking, knee jerk solutions which lead to nothing, and needless expense in driving anywhere. 

We need leaders who know how to think. Know how to imagine. Like Elon. He knows how to imagine. Not perfect thinking all the time, but pretty darn good most of the time. What do we have in leadership? Women who know how to laugh and cackle. Men who know how to pontificate and lie. Meanwhile, China, which should be a lesser country to ours, is passing us in leapfrog movements. 

Maybe we need a futurist as a cabinet position. Someone who really knows how to think and imagine, while still being rooted in reality. Do we only have one person, out of over 300 million who knows how to think and imagine? Come on folks! We can do better than that! If we can't, one day our grandchildren might all be speaking Mandarin.

Poking a bear in the middle of a hot mess






"All I know is this. If the world can come out of this mess in Ukraine without a major spread of conflict, it will be a miracle. Our only hope is regime change in Russia - sooner rather than later."     



Kaliningrad. A part of Russia which is set apart from the rest. How much of Russia's land mass is Kaliningrad? A wee bit. Not much at all. But Kaliningrad is mostly Eurocentric in its thinking, and its world view. But nevertheless, it is still Russia. And last February, Putin put some  Iskander nuclear capable missiles in Kaliningrad. Why? To blunt what NATO was doing. That being said, this very small part of Russia, is more similar to its neighboring Poland, than it is Mother Russia. But now, due to the war in Ukraine which Putin started, innocent little Kaliningrad is getting pulled into this mess.

Let's pretend for a minute, that we had some very bad blood with Canada. So much so, that Canada told us we could no long fly in their airspace. Makes it tougher to get up to Alaska, which is part of our country. Then to make matters worse, Canada told us we can no longer use their roads or railways to ship certain products up to Alaska. That is kind of what is happening to Kaliningrad. It is being isolated by Lithuania, a member of NATO. Without the ability to deliver material to Kaliningrad through Lithuania, that leaves Poland as the only other option. And we all know how that would work out - NOT.

Bottom line? Kaliningrad is a little piece of Russia, adrift in a sea of NATO countries. Not a good situation for Russia. What options does that leave Putin? When tiny little Lithuania dictates terms to him on how he can get material to Kaliningrad? He threatens them (of course). But here is the reality check - Poland and Lithuania are members of NATO, standing firm behind the aegis of Article 5 of the charter. Unless Russia wants to expand Putin's war into Europe, there is not much he can do about the isolation of Kaliningrad.

The question which I have wrestled with is simply this - how many times can we poke this nuclear tipped bear, before Putin does something stupid? Heavier and better arms, albeit not enough, continue to pour into Ukraine.

The Russian Navy has taken a pounding in this war. I read the other day, the losses Russia has suffered, are the most tonnage lost since World War II. And the most amazing part of this statistic is this - the Ukrainians had yet to put one ship to sea during the conflict.

Some say Putin has opened a can of worms when he invaded Ukraine. Others say he popped open Pandora's Box. I think something similar, yet different. I think Putin is both the third and fourth horsemen of the Apocalypse. The third for famine, and the fourth, the pale rider, for death. The stage is set. 

I don't mean for this to be political. But man or man, would this ever be a good time to have a strong President. Someone who could stare Putin down. Joe Biden is not the man who can do that. And that puts us closer to a slugfest with Russia. I miss having a Reagan type of diplomacy. Hello, Star Wars

All I know is this. If the world can come out of this mess in Ukraine without a major spread of conflict, it will be a miracle. Our only hope is regime change in Russia - sooner rather than later.

The difference between black and brown





"Supply and demand were left out of the equation. We now have more demand than supply - especially during very hot periods in the summertime."


Sorry Gary - this is not about race. This is about the number of articles which have appeared as of late concerning our precarious power situation. Wait - what? What power situation? The people we have elected to represent us, have decided over the past ten to 20 years, to make us greener - by force. We have our power sources now mandated by big government. More renewables, less fossil or nuclear. One very small problem with that. Supply and demand were left out of the equation. We now have more demand, than supply - especially during very hot periods in the summertime.

This year, for the first time in my memory, we could have either brownouts, blackouts, or "rolling" blackouts. Time to get smart on what all of these are. Some already know this, others do not. So, here we go:

Brownout - This is when the power dips for a period of time. There still is power, but everything looks "dim". The good news, is there still is power, albeit, not enough for normal operations. The bad news is a brownout is not benign - it can be harmful to electronic devices. 

To protect yourself if you find you are in a brownout, unplug your TV(s), computer (s), chargers, and so forth. Maybe even turn your air conditioner off for a while - at least until normal power resumes. And even then, the power can "bounce around" for a while. Brownouts are not planned events. They happen when the load is too much for the supply. 

Blackout -  These are normally unplanned. Most of us have been through a power outage due to some kind of weather event. I know - it sucks. Nothing works. No well pump, no air conditioner, no lights, no freezer, no fridge, no electric stove, no TV or radio (unless battery driven) - nothing. This happens when the load is so strong on a grid, the grid actually shuts down - it fails. How long it would be down depends on the severity of the failure. If it is a cyber attack instead of a load issue, the outage could take a while. 

Rolling Blackouts - These are planned. The utility company, to keep from any unplanned brownouts or blackouts, will notify customers that between the hours of "x" and "y", their power will be shut off. A two hour outage for example, is inconvenient and a pain. But the house should maintain a good temperature, and the food in freezers should remain frozen.

ALL of these conditions, could have been prevented, with the right kind of grid and power sources. We have over 100 years of natural gas left in this country. It burns clean. We could still be using that in our power plants. Nukes are very green. We could have more nukes. Yes, even windmills help to a degree, but they are not yet ready for prime time. Until renewables are ready for prime time, we need to use everything we have, to ensure power continuity.

Ill begotten gains






"Ill begotten gains. With the expense of much national blood and treasure, Russia wins Ukraine. And then what? Was it worth it? With this invasion, Russia has awakened many sleeping giants. Including some isolationists in America."



How is the war in Ukraine going? It depends. If you are on the receiving end of Russian artillery, not well. The war has become a "slugfest" between "arty" on both sides. A war of attrition. The Ukraine Army is losing between 100 and 200 souls every day. The Russians? Hard to say, although their losses are now north of 30,000.

Just for the sake of discussion, let's suppose the Russians finally break the spirit, and drain the resources of the Ukrainian Army. They win the war, and take Ukraine as their own. What do they win? For starters, a country which has been half destroyed. The conquered citizens will HATE the conquerors. Major cities such as Mariupol, lay in ruins. And who is going to pay to have these cities rebuilt? Russia? If they win the war, the sanctions would last forever and a day.

The Hauge is going to be very busy at the end of this war. Human rights commissions in both  Ukraine and outside of Ukraine have been very busy documenting war crimes against both Russia as a country, and Russian individuals. What does that really mean? Can Russia or Russian soldiers be made to stand trial? To face justice? Unknown. But one thing is for sure. Russia has managed to brand itself as the "new Nazis". They are the pariahs of Europe - maybe the world. Very few countries will want to deal with them. Those who have been accused of war crimes will be fearful of traveling outside of Russia. They could be caught and tried. What a life. 

NATO will have grown by two countries. The boundary between Russia and Finland is enormous. NATO will no longer need to be shamed by a US President to uphold its share of the organization - each country will willingly do it with no prompting. The lessons of Ukraine will last much longer than a generation or two. To counter Russia, every free country in NATO or not, will want to be prepared.

China might take pause in it ambitions for Taiwan. Does China want to be respected in the western Pacific and beyond? Or, does China want to make a move on Taiwan and be held in the same undesirable class that Russia is? The United States I feel, will be much more vigilant and involved should China make its move on Taiwan. South Korea, Japan and Australia might also be involved. China needs to know a large war in that part of the world will not do anyone any good.

Ill begotten gains. With the expense of much national blood and treasure, Russia wins Ukraine. And then what? Was it worth it? With this invasion, Russia has awakened many sleeping giants. Including some isolationists in America.

When the Russian people realize what Vladimir Putin has done to them, he will need to look over both shoulders - twice if not thrice. His remaining life on this planet will not be as it was before the invasion. His life once he leaves this planet, might be a whole lot worse.

The AG, the DAs, the Judges, the Speaker, and January 6th





"What Garland is doing about the protests outside the SCOTUS justice's homes, is the same as what the Democrat DAs are doing with upholding local laws. They are refusing."


I am going to start right out by throwing a bomb. This should cause my leftie friend's hair to catch on fire. I want, no, I demand, that all citizens who have been thrown into jail due to the protests on January 6th, 2021 - be released immediately. AND - their records should be expunged from any wrongdoing. Was that clear enough? And by the way - this is no satire. I am deadly serious.

Title 18, Section 1507 of the U.S. Code, which was enacted in 1950, makes it illegal to protest outside a judge's or jurist's home. Period. Violations are punishable by a fine, up to one year in jail, or both. This has been happening on a daily basis since the now infamous "leak" about the possible overturning of Roe. Merrick Garland, the most useless tool who has ever sat in the AG position, has refused to uphold this law. Refused. If we had a normal President who was in control of his marbles, Garland would have been fired on the first day he refused.

What Garland is doing about the protests outside the SCOTUS justice's homes, is the same as what the Democrat DAs are doing with upholding local laws. They are refusing. And even if they do agree to charge some mutt with a lengthy rap sheet, some Democrat appointed judge often times will stay their sentence. Let the mutts go, so they can re-offend.

So let me get this straight. The law is the law. If the Attorney General of the United States will not uphold the law, if the District Attorneys of large cities will not uphold the law, if appointed judges will not uphold the law, why in the world do we have this faux January 6, Committee? Do we have two different sets of laws in this country? One for Democrats and the other for Republicans? If so, we do not have a country. We have only a tribal group of carnal ideologues, who are now "governing" us.

One more thing. Nancy Pelosi, wife of Paul "may I have another?" Pelosi, heads up the House of Representatives. This is the body which is suppose to create our laws. As such, I would expect them to enforce our laws as well. Ms. Nancy was asked about the protests outside the SCOTUS jurist's homes. Her answer - "Well, a woman has the right to choose. That choice should be between her significant other, her doctor, and her god." That gobblety-gook answer did not fit the question asked. But we are used to this. Abortion is the Democrat's god, and they will protect it as such.

Back to my opener. If we can't enforce some laws in this country, then we should enforce none of them. We have a sham for law enforcement right now. The FBI becoming weaponized during an election, is only one example. Our country needs an enema. We need to get rid of all the crap which is staining Lady Justice. Without that enema, the stains on her scales (for impartiality), her blindfold (for fairness in judgement), and her sword (for power) will remain. And our country will remain a broken arrow.

The old man who cannot sea...






"One more thing. There is an entire cascade of reasons on why we are not equipped for an electric future as yet. Many of those reasons revolve around the fact that much of the material needed does not lie in friendly hands."



BREAKING NEWS! We have a new villain for whomever is responsible for the high gasoline prices! It took a lot of sleuthing, but I think we really are onto something now! It is our own gas and oil refineries. They are screwing us fellow Americans. Bigly, screwing us. The fat cats who run these things, are sitting back in their chairs, smoking Cuban cigars, and counting their money. Their refineries are running at half capacity, and with that capacity, the refineries are making record profits. Meanwhile, Joe Sixpack and his union buddies, are breaking under the pressure of high fuel prices.

Anyhow, that is how the world looks to our over the hill, dementia affected, President. None of what he is saying about the refineries is true. Here are the facts. The last major refinery in this country was brought online in 1977. That was a long, long time ago. Since then, many have been proposed, but all have died in the process of making it through the miles of red tape and hundreds of lawsuits. The refineries we do have, are going bahls to the wall, sometimes hitting 96% of capacity. If a refinery goes down due to fire, hurricane or other, we are screwed.

Someone came up with a wonderful idea, for our refinery starved country. Lets build a new refinery in the middle of nowhere. Where the NIMBY should not matter. Like the Bakken oil fields of North Dakota. Build the refinery where the oil comes out of the ground! Brilliant! It has taken a dozen years of planning and litigation to get to right now. Is it online? Nope. Maybe, just maybe - by 2024. Or maybe it too, will die on the vine of redtape.

Here is the problem. We have plenty of oil to make into gasoline - if Slo Joe lets us drill for it again. But we also need more refineries. And not with an approval cycle of 10 to 20 years to get online. Without refineries, we are whistling past the graveyard. Having vast oil resources, just won't matter. 

Here is the bottom line. We have way too many people, including the ones in charge right now, who believe in wizards and fairy dust. Completely devoid of reality. Windmills, solar and EVs are NOT the total answer. They are part of the answer, and someday, they might be the total answer. But right now, we need gas and oil (and refineries). And lots of it. It is a matter of national security. Economic security. By not using what we have, we are making our people poorer - and quickly.

The amazing thing is how tone deaf our administration is. Every month, the tall tales continue on how our energy woes are the fault of everyone and everything BUT - Joe Biden. And 90% of us Americans are not buying it. There are a few kool aid drinkers who still do believe in Biden's hogwash. But most don't.

One more thing. There is an entire cascade of reasons on why we are not equipped for an electric future as yet. Many of those reasons revolve around the fact that much of the material needed, does not lie in friendly hands. We don't have the material, nor the electrical generating capacity, to go all in electric.

Most smart people know this. The wizards and ferries working for Slo Joe - do not. They are still working on the gender identities of unicorns.

As phony as a three dollar bill





"Today the Fed is expected to lay a whopper on us. Maybe as high as .75 points. This is tough medicine we need to take, because our faux President has led us down the trail to massive inflation."


Yesterday, our very astute President addressed his peeps (in his opinion) - a convention of the AFL/CIO. His peeps? Whatever do you mean? Slo Joe always says he is union from the top of his head to his bottom toe. Really? How so? What union do you belong to Joe? The forty year plan of sucking off the American taxpayer by living in Congress? And your "scrapper from Scranton" stick has got to go, Mr. Tough Guy. Yelling at folks instead of talking to them. You tell us you would like to take people out and smack them up. Sorry Joe - you are about as tough as Betty Crocker.

Truthfully, from his aviator glasses to always saluting people, Joe is a phony. He never flew anything, he never served, and he is not former union. What is he? A faux. A fraud. A nothing burger. And guess what? His worn out and very tired analogy of "Republicans are the party of the big bankers and rich guys", is not only beyond trite, it is not very true anymore. The boardrooms are loaded with "woke" RINOs and Democrats. But who cares? Joe likes playing to the crowd (so he thinks).

Even the local paper today took off after Biden on his "solution" to our out of control inflation. First off, he has no solution. Second, and this was not in the paper, Biden is the one who is CAUSING the inflation. But who cares? He is now after the newest culprit to the sky high gas prices. The refineries. Huh? Why? Because they dare to make a profit. Never mind this country is woefully short on refineries. Like - we have not built a new one in decades. But - the fault with our gas prices lies with Putin, Republicans, Asian shipping companies, Trump, the Tooth Fairy, and now the refineries. Everyone EXCEPT Biden.

Sometimes (actually most of the time), when I see Biden addressing any sort of crowd, I just need to shake my head in disbelief. I am amazed he has any type of following at all in this country. How more people cannot see through his paper thin veneer. Now that he did what he was suppose to do (get rid of Donald Trump), what good is he? His results are not mixed - they are 100% negative. Phonies don't do well at running countries. They do however, do nicely at ruining countries.

Today the Fed is expected to lay a whopper on us. Maybe as high as .75 points. This is tough medicine we need to take, because our faux President has led us down the trail to massive inflation. Thanks Joe - thanks for nothing. Now you can take your phony aviator glasses and your meaningless salutes and go back to Delaware. You are no longer needed here.

Kicking a corpse





"So, go ahead Democrats. Keeping on punching and kicking a corpse. You have sound and fury, but you signify nothing. As for the citizens and patriots, we will continue to point out how Slo Joe has all but ruined us in less than two years."


I really don't know what to make out of this dog and pony show the Democrats are forcing on the American people. NEWS FLASH: Donald Trump is no longer the President. 45 is dead and gone. Even if Trump comes back as 47, 45 is gone. You can't impeach him (again). Was not two times enough for these statists? So, what is the plan, man? Donald Trump is down at Mara Lago, playing golf, enjoying a semi-retirement, and the Democrats are running around like headless chickens with their feathers on fire. And for what? 

How riveting are these hearings? Yesterday on CBS, it was reported that a re-run of Young Sheldon topped these Democrat hearings. That would be an ouch. But is there an upside? Sure is. Liz Cheney has gone from having a questionable political future, to being a "dead (wo)man walking." She has totally aligned herself with the dark side. And for what? For her visceral hatred of Donald Trump. Trump may be gone, but he still lives rent free in millions of blue heads.

I am flummoxed about what the Democrats are doing right now, other than changing the subject. They can hate on Donald Trump for every day until he is gone, and then many days thereafter. He is gone from office, but what he accomplished will remain forever. And as much as the mutts on the left are trying to re-write his history, some things will never change. Like, how he made our economy hum. Comparing the Trump economy with the Biden economy is like comparing the temperatures on Mercury with Pluto. Hot and cold. Night and day. Good and bad.

The MAGA movement was born under Donald Trump. It will never die. It changed us. It changed how we think of ourselves as Americans. That we are still a good country, who can make good stuff, and lead a good life. Whereas Biden continues to show us our denominator, Trump always stretched for a higher numerator. He was the closest thing we have had to Ronald Reagan since the Gipper left us. For those kool aid drinkers who think Biden is all that and a bag of chips, go ahead an keep kicking Trump's political corpse. Even when Trump is not in power, his shadow is miles bigger than anything the blue team has to offer.

One more thing which is of merit to mention. I read a very good piece on the Hill from this past March. What if, what President Trump had alleged was true? That election was stolen? The answer is something many of us have known for some time. What would happen? Nothing. The crook would have still be sworn in, and become President. Why? Our Constitution states once the electoral college certifies the election - it is over for good. Period. No going back.

So, go ahead Democrats. Keeping on punching and kicking the corpse. You have sound and fury, but you signify nothing. As for the citizens and patriots, we will continue to point out how Slo Joe has all but ruined us in less than two years. We will make sure when the Democrat Party sinks this November, Biden sinks with it. MAGA may live on, but Build, Back, Better was more flaccid than a nocturnal remission.

Protect the Jurists!





"Here is the bottom line. Chuck Schumer threatened the Republican appointed jurists shortly after they were appointed. Why? Abortion." 


Today might be the day. In fact, "Ruth sent us", and some other nut ball organizations, are all set to try and shut down SCOTUS today. Workers of the world unite! Take it to the streets! Burn it all down! Yes, the mutts in WDC are ready to rock and roll. Why? Because there is a chance the feds will keep their mitts off of the abortion issue. That abortion, would be determined by the states instead (like it always should have been). I have never seen so many leftist misfits, so anxious to terminate the next generation - before they are even born.

After hearing Chris Coons (Democrat Senator from Connecticut), it appears we need to have two different sets of laws protecting our Supreme Court Justices. One for if you demonstrate outside a Republican appointed Jurist. That would met with a maximum of a $17 fine (maybe). The other, would be a law should you demonstrate outside a Democrat appointed Jurist. That would be punishable by the death penalty (or worse). 

The latest threat I heard on the news this morning, was some of these mutts wanted to go after Amy Coney Barrett's kids. Really? Are no boundaries at all any more? And what would the purpose be, of going after someone's kids? Maybe we should ask Chris Coons. His answer would be, "Well, we need to walk that fine line of First Amendment and protecting a jurist's rights." But, but Senator Coons, going after someone's kids? "We need to protect the First Amendment rights of 'Ruth sent us'. That is more important than anything else."

Here is the bottom line. Chuck Schumer threatened the Republican appointed jurists shortly after they were appointed. Why? Abortion. In our topsy turvy world of right is wrong and wrong is right, many on the left now worship at the shine of Margert Sangar. We have skipped right over Sanger's position on eugenics, and are now into full out infanticide. The is the hill the left has chosen to die on. Why? Ask them.

Can we protect our jurists against the onset of today's mutts and lefties? I doubt it. Soon it will be as hard to find someone to serve on the court, as it is to find gas for $2/gal. But this is our own creation. We let the left become as lawless as it is right now. Who pays the ultimate price for this? As usual - the unborn. May God have mercy on us all.

Enter the blockade runners?





"Vladimir Putin has shown us cruelty unlike the world has seen for decades. He has demonstrated the most carnal of all sub-human instincts. To kill innocents, to destroy at abandon, to allow people to starve - these are without measure."


What kind of a country would willingly and forcefully invade a sovereign neighbor? What kind of country would kill innocent women and children just for the sport of it? What kind of a country would kidnap 200,000 children from another country, and put them in "re-education camps"? What kind of a country would bomb and shell a building which was clearly marked "children". And what kind of a country would deliberately withhold and blockade sea shipments of grain to feed a hungry world? If you guessed Putin's Russia, you guessed right. 

Yesterday on the news, a retired United States Admiral gave the same dire warning the General Secretary of the UN recently gave. If we (the free world) do not start escorting grain shipments out of the Azov and Black Seas, many in this hungry world are going to starve. There will be food riots and general mayhem. So what does this mean we need to do? Basically putting allied man-of-war ships, up against Russian man-of-war ships, to allow grain shipments to get through.

If your "spider senses" are starting to tingle at this one, you are not alone. The first time a Russian and allied warship exchange fire, it could put us at the tipping point. Mr. "itchy finger" Putin might look at that as an excuse to use one of his Satan II nukes against a NATO (or us) country. And then where will this war be? What everyone has been afraid of, might come to fruition. A Euro wide, all out battle, between NATO and Russia. 

But what is the result if the world does not act? Let millions go without enough food? Let children die from hunger? Engage the world in more, not less, suffering? What is wrong with Russia? What is wrong with a people who allow such a cruel and uncaring person lead them? Biden was chastised by the press for calling for regime change in Russia months ago. I will also call for regime change. The people of Russia need it. The people of the world need it.




If the world cannot fight totalitarianism to protect the least of us, what then, are our values? Could protecting this grain to help feed a hungry planet lead to a world war? Absolutely. But this might be the hill worth dying on. The UN has already turned a blind eye and a deaf ear to the thousands upon thousands of war crimes that Russia has committed against Ukraine.

But this - this is a crime against humanity itself. Africa will be the hardest hit by not getting this grain. Is this being our brother's keeper? Are we going to sit back, and do nothing? Or are we being called to act? Now is the time to stiffen our spines and check our resolve.

Vladimir Putin has shown us cruelty unlike the world has seen for decades. He has demonstrated the most carnal of all sub-human instincts. To kill innocents, to destroy at abandon, to allow people to starve - these are without measure. Evil still lurks and prowls over the land - and that land is called Russia.

The tipping point





"Many years ago, when I was in high school, and there had been a dystopian book about you and your 'cabinet', and what you are doing to our country, it would have been labeled as fiction. Why? What you have done to the land of our fathers, is beyond imagination."


A few weeks ago, I was listening to an expert on fuel futures. It was a good time to listen, as gasoline, as well as diesel, was going up like a rocket. He said it was going to continue going up, through the $4/gal range, and then hit a "tipping point". A "tipping point"? What was that? It was when gasoline hit $5/gal (nationwide average). It is territory we have never been in before. It is territory NO PRESIDENT in his or her right mind, wants to preside over. And yet - here we are.

The reason $5/gal is so toxic politically, is simply this. When it takes "Joe Sixpack", (the union worker), $130 to fill up his F-150 for the week, that is very un-American. American workers (even union workers Slo Joe), live and breath by their trucks. To sabotage our fossil fuel industry, so many hard working folks can't make it to work, and sure can't make it to their fishing hole or hunting lodge - is crap. But Slo Joe says, "Don't worry - be happy! Just go buy a $60K Tesla."

Here is the bottom line, and you better listen up Joseph. In November, there are tens of millions of people who are going to take this all out on your party. They can't touch you (unfortunately) for another two years, but they can sure run your party out of town. All the happy horse crap you have tried to pull on us will be remembered - and remembered in spades. Your place in Presidential history is already etched in stone. Any additional remiss on your part, will only make those etches deeper and wider.

You have hurt this country deeply. Donald Trump may have been hard to get along with, but he never hurt this country. You did, for reasons unknown to most. During the days post Revolution, someone who did to this country what you have done, well, it would have not ended well for that person. For what you and your clown car have done to us, you deserve no quarter - only castigation.

Many years ago, when I was in high school, and there had been a dystopian book about you and your "cabinet", and what you are doing to our country, it would have been labeled as fiction. Why? What you have done to the land of our fathers, is beyond imagination. It is so vile, it turns bile to vomit. What frustrates us so much? You are wrecking everything, and there is not a damn thing we can do. That is - until November.

   

Silence is NOT golden!





"The transparency of this Administration is anything but. The same goes for the socialist Congress that Pelosi and Schumer lead. Lie, lie, lie. Obfuscate, and then some."


Did you hear President Biden yesterday, really give a tongue lashing to those who were demonstrating outside of SOCTUS justice's houses? And then how Biden really went after that young man who was arrested outside of Justice Cavanaugh's house? Because he came there to kill Justice Cavanaugh (and maybe his family)? Did you hear him? No? Neither did I, as Biden has not yet said a peep about this issue.

Did you hear the soon to be former Speaker of the House Pelosi, give an in depth explanation on why, after President Trump had requested the National Guard be called up to ensure the peace on January 6th - why she refused? And then did you hear the absolute stunning explanation on why and how Capitol police force were trained to keep protests like the January 6th protest from getting out of hand? No? Neither did I, as it seems like the cat has the Speaker's tongue.

Did you hear the explanation given by the very strange talking Merrick Garland, how the criminal proceeding is coming against Capitol Police Officer Michael Byrd, for the cold blooded murder of Ashley Babbitt? How this was no different than the murder of George Floyd by Officer Dereck Chauvin in Minneapolis? Why in one case it was a white cop killing a black man resisting arrest, and in the other it was a black cop shooting a white woman (a vet) in the face while protesting. The white cop got decades in prison, and the black cop is off, free as a Byrd. Did you hear Garland? No? Neither did I. I guess justice is blind under Biden. 

Did you hear DHS Mayorkas explain to the American people how he and his department were going to handle this huge wave of new immigrants coming up from Mexico? How it is so dangerous now to make this journey (many say Biden invited them here), that over 700 have died since Biden became President? Did you hear Mayorkas explanation of our fentanyl epidemic, and the thousands of American deaths it has caused, due to our open southern border? Did you hear Mayorkas also explain why we have clandestine air traffic, to shuttle illegals all over the country? No? Me neither. This bald headed Cuban needs to be impeached sooner rather than later. Maybe also try him for murder due to all the drug deaths due to our open borders.

The transparency of this Administration is anything but. The same goes for the socialist Congress that Pelosi and Schumer lead. Lie, lie, lie. Obfuscate, and then some. When the Republicans take over, Democrats "heads will roll". Whomever has been derelict in their duties or even remiss, will be impeached. And maybe more than impeached. 

One more thing. Anyone who willfully and knowingly voted for this bunch of misfits, needs to have a cognitive test. Or, maybe some just hate this country that much.

The January 6th slumber party





"What really caused January 6th? Hate. The vile, visceral, and unending hatred from the left. It led to January 6th. That is my takeaway from last night, and I am sticking with it."     


They spied on him when he was running for President. They tried to derail his Presidency many times. There were attempts to have him thrown out of office due to "Russia-gate". There were (let's just say) "oddities" in the 2020 election. By the time January 6th rolled around, Donald Trump had reached his limit. He could see his second term slipping away. He felt isolated. Alone. The Deep State he had fought for his entire term, was going to win the day.

Last night, was the first of the dog and pony shows the Dems were going to show the American people. What was my main take away? Was Donald Trump responsible for what happened? Unprovable. Does the Democrat Party, the RINOs, and part of this nation still have a visceral hatred for Donald Trump? Absolutely. Will the Democrats and RINOs try to politically assimilate Donald Trump before the 2024 election? Count on it.

I personally, don't think Donald Trump will run again. Why should he? He is a proud man, who has many accomplishments in his life. He did do (and if you say not, the truth is not in you), many good things as President. But he did have a fatal flaw. He did not play well with others. Until the Donald assumes room temperature (and maybe afterwards), the haters will not stop hating on him. 

Once the Republicans take control of the House and Senate, the real and untold story of January 6th will be told. It was not a coup orchestrated by an out of control President. Was there blame there? Yes - on everybody, blue and red. But now it is time to move on. Move forward.

I do know this however, and it was dittoed last night. Nobody can hate like Democrats or Liz Cheney type RINOs. Whomever the Republicans pic as their nominee, better be prepared. Very few people are cut from the same tough piece of wood Donald Trump is. The attacks on the Republican nominee will start when the campaign starts, and continue on until he (or she), is out of office. Don't believe me? Look at how the mutts on the left are treating the Republican nominated SCOTUS justices. The hate drips off these socialist Democrats. It is their way, or the highway. And once on the highway, they will try to run you over. Period.

Why do the Democrats perseverate about January 6th? Because they have nothing else. Zip. Nada. Do you think they want to talk about the price of gasoline? The price of food? The price to heat their homes this winter? The invasion on our southern border? Being at the nuclear tipping point with Russia? No, January 6th is the hill they will die on.

What really caused January 6th? Hate. The vile, visceral, and unending hatred from the left. It led to January 6th. That is my takeaway from last night, and I am sticking with it.

Fair trade?





"Trading one Democrat today for another gains you nothing. They are all cut from the same stock."


Kathy Hochul. The present governor of New York. She was to be the bright shining light, needed to illuminate the darkness caused by disgraced governor Andrew Cuomo as well as New York Mayor Bill Di Blasio. Once Cuomo was dispatched with, and de Blasio's term was up, you could hear a quiet hush all over the hills and valleys of New York state, followed by a sign of relief. Andrew, son of Mario, was finally gone.

But what are we finding out about Governor Hochul. Was this a move up for New Yorkers? Or was this trading one bad apple for another? I mean, I can see how the average person might have been hoodwinked by her. Low profile, all American family, no salacious details like her predecessor(s). Looked like a good pick.

But hold on for a minute. What do we really know about the good governor? The one who pledged she would be different than Cuomo. She would be a different kind of Democrat. Much more bipartisan. Well - she is not. She has just signed into law, more gun grabbing legislation. Laws which would have not prevented the previous month's shootings. And as most of us know, New York is already ripe with gun laws. And also Democrat DA's who prefer not to enforce this law. You know - that equity thing.

Hochul also is continuing New York's war on the unborn. Hochul is all in, to have New York be a mecca for young women who want to get rid of their babies - and I don't mean adoption. When the anti-abortion pregnancy center in Buffalo was recently firebombed, the governor was asked about it. Outrage? Nope. Just some canned response about being against all violence. I could only imagine what she would have said if that had been a Planned Parenthood clinic instead.

What have we learned? Trading one Democrat today for another gains you nothing. They are all cut from the same stock. "Bipartisan" to them means "do it my way". Don't be fooled in the voting booth. Pulling the blue lever gives you gun grabbing, baby terminating, tax increasing socialists. Period. There are no exceptions. They are all the rule.

Something bad this way comes...





"Does something bad, this way comes? Sure seems that way at times. Maybe - if we let it. We are still the land of milk and honey. But we need to have a government which will allow us to feed, heat and nurture the world."



One of the benefits of being the age I am, it is harder and harder to be surprised. Something happens, and more times than not, I think, "Oh, I have seen that before - or at least, something very similar." I am sure other septuagenarians have had the same feelings. But what is happening in our world and our country, is a new one on me. In fact, it is not only new, but is also very unsettling.

Actually, I am starting to feel like we might be on the edge of a precipice. Edging ever closer to a cliff, which at the bottom of the cliff, sits a bottomless pit. What is it? Our way of life, the American way - and it feels like it about to change.

Things we have taken for granted in the past (like eating, driving, and staying warm in the winter), might be changing before the year is over. How so? The price of regular gasoline is just under $5/gal right now. In about a dozen states, it is over $5/gal. One industry analyst said by Independence Day, gas in the $5/gal range would be "common", nation wide. And the trip upward will not stop there.

As we slide into winter, the next shock will set in. Natural Gas is up 200%. Why? All part of the master plan. The one which most of us did NOT vote for. Make internal combustion cars so unfordable, they will become undrivable. Force folks into electric cars, which today, are not yet ready for prime time. Then make the heating of homes, suitable only to be done by "green" energy. Make natural gas (even though we have decades of it left underground in the US), unaffordable. In fact, in MA, there is a law where new homes construction MAY NOT be heated with natural gas - only windmills and solar. Good luck with that one!

What about the rest of the world? This is where it gets bad. Russia. Remember them? The country with 6,000 nukes who want to nuke us? The weekly threats? Here is how it will play out. Russia, is firing missiles from inside its territory into Ukraine. So the citizens in Ukraine, are just sitting ducks. We have told Ukraine that we will supply longer range missiles to them which will reach into Russia. Seems fair - right? Not to Putin. He knows he has Biden cowed. So Putin has told us, that any missile which is supplied by us, and fired into Russia, will be responded to with a nuke on American soil. And that - is a this year thing.

Speaking of Russia, next man up, please. The manmade famine. Russia wants to blockade any grain shipments coming out of Ukraine. This is from last year's grain harvest (before the war). The UN has put Russia on notice, that the UN countries (other than Russia and its cronies), will not put up with that. If this grain cannot get to market, famine will grip Europe, Africa and beyond. And to break this blockade - we will need to sink Russian ships and kill Russian sailors. And then what???

Does something bad, this way comes? Sure seems that way at times. Maybe - if we let it. We are still the land of milk and honey. But we need to have a government which will allow us to feed, heat and nurture the world. With our current administration, we have gone from benefit givers to needy benefit receivers. Remember that in November.    

  

 

No arrows left in his quiver...




"Can I quote what Obama, Biden's former boss, (allegedly) said about him? "Leave it to Biden to really f*** things up". Yes, that is our Brandon." 



Want to take a trip back down memory lane? How about a hint? Does the name Solyndra ring a bell? Solyndra was one of thirty six (36) different companies which went belly up during the Obama Administration. All to make us "greener". Many of these failed companies, were made flush with taxpayer money. And Solyndra was a whopper. This was the company which Obama and Biden really showcased to the nation. The one we dumped a half billion into before it went belly up. This happened when Biden was Veep under Obama. Guess what? Biden as President, might be wanted to do this all over again. Like deja vu, all over again?

Ready for this one? During this superstorm of almost hyper-inflation, when gasoline just hit $4.91/gal, Joe Biden is considering using the Defense Production Act (DPA), once again. Like for what? Insulation for houses. Huh? When people can't afford the gas to get to work, they want their houses insulated? What planet is this on?

It gets worse. He also wants to have solar panels as part of this DPA. Plus (you will love this one) - he wants to eliminate some Trump era tariffs on China. Like - tariffs on the solar panels the Chinese make. So much for the "Buy America Act". So much for "Make America Great Again". Was is this then? What is going through Biden's mind? It is called "No more arrows in the quiver" act. 

Can I quote what Obama, Biden's former boss, (allegedly) said about him? "Leave it to Biden to really f*** things up". Yes, that is our Brandon. Everything he has touched since taking office, has backfired. The guy who many dolts voted for, because he was the "adult in the room", has run the White House like Romper Room.

We are now a nation of cars without affordable gasoline, babies without enough formula, a nation without borders, an economy is tatters, and streets afire with unfettered crime. There is more, but you get the picture.

The thought I had the other day, might be a good illustration as to what is happening right now. Biden is like a little kid who dreams of driving a car. He has watched others drive cars for decades now, and it is something he has always wanted to do. One day, almost two years ago, some misguided people gave this little boy the keys to the car. So, he got behind the wheel and started to drive. The rest is history. The boy (Biden) wrecked the car, and everything it came in contact with. 

We need to get the keys away from Biden. We can start in 154 days when the voting happens for the midterm elections. We need to first take away Biden's cohorts in the House and Senate. Replace them with real adults. Then we can focus on 2024, by taking the car keys out of Biden's hands.
