Episode 342 – Tsunami Inbound!

It’s coming. Like the cicadas. Like the Chinese rocket from space. It’s coming and it’s going to bite us all.

AOC is still an idiot.

Joe Biden needs to stop calling himself a Catholic.

And Andrew Cuomo, the guy who should have been impeached by now, is embracing segregation.

 

Things Aren’t Going Well

Joe Biden got some bad news. The jobs numbers came out today and it was one fifth of what was expected. This is going to have some consequences.

  • There were 266,000 jobs created in April.
  • The Budget Office expected almost a million jobs to be created in April.
  • The unemployment rate went up to 6.1%.
  • The unemployment rate is expected to be higher based on the fact a lot of people are not returning to the workforce.

Reasons why this is happening:

  • Schools are still closed.
  • The economy remains closed. It is opening but states like California and Michigan are still really restricting business.
  • The mixed messaging by the White House and Tony Fauci about the effectiveness of the vaccines and where we are in respect to the pandemic.
  • There have been reports that we may never reach herd immunity. This thing is never going to end.
  • The government has been giving out money for the last year and there are no plans by the Democrats to stop. People are being paid more to stay at home.
  • Businesses like McDonald’s can’t get low wage workers. They are offering $50 to people for just applying for a job.

Joe Biden thinks this is not a bad thing. He said today:

That’s a lie. He probably knows it though what he knows these days cannot be actually measured. But even CNN know this is really bad news.

It’s Coming Faster Than We Thought

CNN pretty much summed it up in a story today or yesterday. I was shocked:

The job numbers mean inflation is coming. Here’s the problem:

  • People have a lot of money right now. That’s because they have been given money for the last year.
  • Because people are making more money by staying home than working, they are not going to work.
  • Because there are less workers, supply lines and supply chains do not have enough people for products and services.
  • As demand goes up and supply goes down, prices for goods and services go up.
  • Walla! Inflation!
  • Who is this going to affect most? The poor and lower middle class. Their limited income is now going to buy less.

I thought this wouldn’t happen for a couple of years and this inflation is not what we are going to see because of the trillions of dollars of spending. This is the inflation from low supply and high demand.

Prices from March 2020 to March 2021:

  • Lumber is up 65%. Great for the housing market.
  • Gas and crude oil is up 40%. Prepare for the cost of driving and flying to go way up.
  • Iron and steel up 38%. Don’t need to worry about gas if you can’t afford a car.
  • Copper is up 75%.
  • Cotton is up 35%.
  • Fertilizer is up 26%.

These are actual increases from last year to this year. The projections are far worse. They are projecting lumber to increase between 200-400%. Gas could be up 50-70% because crude oil could get to over $100 a barrel again since we stopped being energy independent with Biden’s garbage policies.

In 2008, Obama said that we should be prepared to skip things like travel because of the environment. He was with a Congress that told him to buzz off. Now, the insane crap that Obama wanted is now being realized and we are going to suffer.

God, She’s Dumb

Did you know that Planned Parenthood actually saves lives? Yeah, I didn’t either. But here is the logic of the insane and stupid justifying the killing of babies by Planned Parenthood:

What she doesn’t get: Abortion is a policy that kills people. OK, there’s a lot to unpack here.

  • First off, AOC was born into an upper middle class family. I doubt her very well off family had anything to do with Planned Parenthood.
  • I love when people compare abortion to the death penalty. They really have nothing to do with each other.
  • I also trip out about the reverence people like AOC hold for Planned Parenthood
    • It was founded by Mary Sanger, a rabid racist and eugenicist.
    • She opened her clinics in black neighborhoods because she saw blacks and the disabled as inferior to whites.
    • Her clinics were for providing birth control, sterilization and abortion targeting the “inferior” people of color and the disabled.
    • The science community, including eugenicists, saw her as so radical, they rejected her, her research and her writings.
    • Planned Parenthood, this year, rejected Mary Sanger because people are beginning to learn a little bit about her and they do not want to be associated with her. It only took about a 100 years.
  • Now, on a more important note, Planned Parenthood kills 300,000 babies a year. With some adjustments, and don’t quote me on this because I have heard it is way higher, 10 million babies have been killed by Planned Parenthood.
  • Of that, less than 2%, and I’m being liberal here, are aborted due to rape, incest or danger to the mother. That means 98% of murdered babies are killed for convenience.

AOC is either really dumb or lying to you. I think it’s both. How she can up hold a clinic whose main purpose was to eradicate the United States of black people and the disabled.

Why Bother?

Yesterday was the National Day of Prayer. Joe Biden had something to say about it:

“Throughout our history, Americans of many religions and belief systems have turned to prayer for strength, hope, and guidance. Prayer has nourished countless souls and powered moral movements — including essential fights against racial injustice, child labor, and infringement on the rights of disabled Americans. Prayer is also a daily practice for many, whether it is to ask for help or strength, or to give thanks over blessings bestowed.

“The First Amendment to our Constitution protects the rights of free speech and religious liberty, including the right of all Americans to pray. These freedoms have helped us to create and sustain a Nation of remarkable religious vitality and diversity across the generations.

“Today, we remember and celebrate the role that the healing balm of prayer can play in our lives and in the life of our Nation. As we continue to confront the crises and challenges of our time — from a deadly pandemic, to the loss of lives and livelihoods in its wake, to a reckoning on racial justice, to the existential threat of climate change — Americans of faith can call upon the power of prayer to provide hope and uplift us for the work ahead. As the late Congressman John Lewis once said, ‘Nothing can stop the power of a committed and determined people to make a difference in our society. Why? Because human beings are the most dynamic link to the divine on this planet.’”

He’s not much of a Catholic but he’s a true Leftist. He does want you to pray every day. But he wants you to pray to the government, to the climate and to race. He doesn’t care about God or religion because, as Marx said, “Religion is the opiate of the people” and government will find it impossible to control a population that knows there’s a higher power.

Just sad.

Episode 341 – He Just Can’t Keep His Foot Out of His Mouth

They’re baaaack!

LeBron James looks stupid again.

And what could complete the last year in a half better than a swarm and crap falling from the sky.

 

These Guys Can’t Help Themselves

Way back, the government used something called earmarks to fund the pet projects for some politicians. This was supported by both parties. It is one of the reasons that term “swamp” came out for defining the government.

What an earmark is an amendment to a budget bill to include pet projects. It is used to buy the vote for the bill so that it can pass. In the old days, there would be dozens and dozens of earmarks in a bill just to guarantee that the bill would pass. The big problem is that a bill that costs a little bit could suddenly costs billions more because of those earmark. What’s worse, people only looked at the title of the bill and didn’t know what was in the bill. They only heard about it from some news outlets.

Couple of things happened that made Congress get rid of earmarks in 2011:

  • The Internet – People can not look up what is in a specific bill.
  • Non-legacy news like Daily Wire and The Blaze (even Fox News) that would call out these earmarks.
  • Corruption.

Two ex-lawmakers even faced jail time after an investigation into their earmarks. Former Rep. Chaka Fattah, D-Pa., used earmarks to launder taxpayer money through a nonprofit, while former Rep. Duke Cunningham, R-Calif., accepted $2.4 million in bribes for earmarks and even lived on a yacht owned by a defense contractor.

Well, they’re back. And this is the worst time to spend money.

Congress is trying to set up the federal budget this month. This is outside the $6 trillion that Joe Biden is throwing out there. This budget is just to keep the government open. Basically, we are going to have to spend a ton more money to keep the government running. Here ae some of the earmarks that are being added to the federal funding bill:

  • $1,750,000 to spruce up the Japanese Garden in Portland.
  • $436,100 for a “meditation and restorative yoga” program in New Jersey.
  • $250,000 to expand the Michelle Obama Library in California.
  • Rep. Brad Schneider, D-Ill., wants $3.75 million to restore the Waukegan Carnegie Museum.
  • $2 million in funding for a new art collection at the Brooklyn Museum in New York.
  • $2 million for a Pickleball and Fitness Circuit in Orange, Calif.
  • $1.5 million to provide free public Wi-Fi in a California city and $250,000 for a performing arts center that, according to the website of Rep. Val Demings, D-Fla., “should be more than a beautifully designed building.”
  • There are dozens of projects that list diversity and equity among their goals, including $742,000 for a New York program that would feature “conversations around difficult issues such as racism, gender discrimination and cultural bias”.
  • $166,000 for the development of an equity program at Lincoln University.
  • There are also millions of dollars, collectively, earmarked for public arts programs, climate change initiatives and Planned Parenthood.
  • This additional spending will add over $6 billion to the current federal budget.

This is a bipartisan issue too. A total of 326 members of the House, including 220 Democrats and 106 Republicans. There are 435 members of Congress so you do the math.

Shut Up and Dribble

LeBron James had faced a lot of criticisms lately:

  • His support for BLM while remaining silent on China’s suppression of Hong Kong.
  • He supported kneeling for the National Anthem.
  • He keeps bitching that he’s oppressed because he’s black. Never mentions that he’s worth a billion dollars. Literally.
  • The doxxing and threatening of the police officer who shot Ma’Khia Bryant. That’s the 16-year-old girl who was shot by a police officer while she was trying to stab another teenager.
  • The Lakers sucking because he’s playing like crap.
  • The fact the Lakers may not make the playoffs.

He took a lot of crap for doxxing that cop. So much so that he pulled down the tweet and would not address it again. But now, he has decided to read one of the most horrendeous articles from Vox and use that as a reference for why the death of  Ma’Khia Bryant was proof of systemic police racism. He tweeted:

One thing I want to propose to you is building your political case on a lie is not a way to argue. Let’s read a little of the article and debunk it right from the start. This is actually a really long article but I did not feel there was a point in reading it all when the premise of the first couple of paragraphs was based on a lie.

It is titled, Why they’re not saying Ma’Khia Bryant’s name by

After watching 15 seconds of police body camera footage last week, viewers of various races and political affiliations had made a decision: 16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant was “the aggressor” — the “fat,” “huge,” “knife-wielding attacker” and “maniac” who deserved to be fatally shot by the police on April 20 in Columbus, Ohio.

  • People didn’t make the “decision” Bryant was the aggressor, the body cam footage showed she was going to stab another 16-year-old black girl.
  • In fact, the video caught her saying, “I am going to stab you, bitch” so it seems like there was plenty of intent for what she was going to do.
  • I have read a lot about this case and never heard anyone call Bryant “fat”, “huge”, or a “maniac”. By the way, all of her references are not coming from main stream media outlet except for knife-wielding. Probably because she was wielding a knife.
  • I have heard that the police officer did not have a choice, no one said she deserved to be shot.

According to these viewers, Nicholas Reardon, the police officer who immediately shot and killed Bryant, who was holding a knife, was justified. That she was a teenager in the middle of an altercation, in which she was presumed to be defending herself, did not matter.

  • Nick Reardon had, literally, ten seconds to save the other girl’s life. There are two videos proving this.
  • And this is common thing with the news media. This was not an altercation. Bryant was going to stab an unarmed girl. Me yelling at someone and him yelling at me is an altercation.

Reardon shot Bryant dead about 20 minutes before a judge announced that a jury found former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin guilty of murdering George Floyd, a killing that catalyzed worldwide protests against police violence. For a moment, those seeking justice for Black life exhaled in relief, knowing that the officer who callously took Floyd’s life would be imprisoned.

  • This case has nothing to do with the Chauvin case.
  • This, like most other uses of force, was completely justified and needed for saving the life of another black teenager.
  • By the way, you do have to accept that Derrick Chauvin did use excessive force against an innocent person. We’ve talked enough about hat case and I don’t buy the narrative.

But the cries for justice that applied to George Floyd did not ring out as loudly for Bryant. Even after it was discovered that Bryant was living in foster care, that she was in the middle of a fight with older women when police arrived, and that she was allegedly the one who summoned the police for help, people — some of the same people who called for justice in Floyd’s case — used police talking points to justify the four bullets that Reardon unloaded into Bryant’s chest. She was brandishing a knife, many pointed out, which meant the other Black women needed to be protected.

  • Bryant living in foster care is irrelevant here. In fact, it brings to question her upbringing and is proof that a good family life is important.
  • The older woman was a year older. She was also a teen! 
  • And what difference do ages make here? Would that have changed something?
  • Bryant did not call the police. It was the girl who was attacked. This is just a lie!

Crisis response experts noted, however, that deescalation tactics — like commanding Bryant to drop the weapon, physically getting between the women, or simply communicating with her — could have kept everyone alive. In many recorded encounters between the police and white people carrying weapons, for instance, officers didn’t shoot first or even reach for their guns — they successfully managed to peacefully apprehend the suspect.

  • I love getting alternate scenarios from people who were not involved.
  • The officer had ten seconds to save this other girl’s life. There was no time for de-escalation.
  • Yes, many recorded confrontations don’t lead to use of force. That actually is proof that police don’t shoot people willy-nilly.

I’m done reading this. When an article is based on narratives and lies, it’s hard to take it seriously especially when we actually have video of the shooting. By the way, the article did not include the video. I wonder why.

LeBron James just made a dumb tweet dumber by referencing this article to prove his point.

Science and Nature

As The Daily Wire reported in January, “In one of nature’s mysteries, 15 states will soon witness the reemergence of Brood X — or the Great Eastern Brood — of periodical cicadas. These ‘large, winged, kind of scary-looking but mostly harmless flying insects known for their almost deafening buzz’ emerge in-unison every 17 years.”

We’ve been shut down for the last year and a half so, why not throw in a swarm or a plague or two.

Brood X is expected to appear in Delaware, District of Columbia, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Ohio, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia.

I love this explanation from University of Maryland entomologist Michael Raupp:

“You’ve got a creature that spends 17 years in a Covid-like existence, isolated underground sucking on plant sap, right? In the 17th year these teenagers are going to come out of the earth by the billions if not trillions. They’re going to try to best everything on the planet that wants to eat them during this critical period of the nighttime when they’re just trying to grow up, they’re just trying to be adults, shed that skin, get their wings, go up into the treetops, escape their predators.

“Once in the treetops, hey, it’s all going to be about romance. It’s only the males that sing. It’s going to be a big boy band up there as the males try to woo those females, try to convince that special someone that she should be the mother of his nymphs. He’s going to perform, sing songs. If she likes it, she’s going to click her wings. They’re going to have some wild sex in the treetop.

“Then she’s going to move out to the small branches, lay their eggs. Then it’s all going to be over in a matter of weeks. They’re going to tumble down. They’re going to basically fertilize the very plants from which they were spawned. Six weeks later the tiny nymphs are going to tumble 80 feet from the treetops, bounce twice, burrow down into the soil, go back underground for another 17 years.”

So there is not going to be a lot of sleep on the East Coast.

Is It Really a Surprise?

A large out-of-control Chinese rocket is going to smash into Earth this coming weekend.

According to CNN:

“The large Chinese rocket that is out of control and set to reenter Earth’s atmosphere this weekend has brought about an alarming but not unprecedented situation.”

Notice CNN really wants to make this a big deal? Happens all the time. Guess where it doesn’t happen all the time: With rockets made in the United States!

Most of the time, when a rocket heads back to earth, it is burned up in the atmosphere. This ship is huge. It was suppose to drop supplies up on the space station when China lost control of it. The think weighs 22 tons and is traveling at 18,000 miles an hour.

Though NASA won’t know for an hour or two before the rockets enters the atmosphere, there is very little chance that this rocket is actually going to land on something.

This isn’t the first time China has lost control of a rocket. The last time they launched a rocket of this type, it came down and there were a bunch of rods landed on a house. No one was killed but it could have been a bad situation.

This just shows the incompetence of China and how iffy their technology really is. Well, it’s our technology that they stole but they can’t get any of it to work.

Episode 340 – Let’s Go Over This Thing

News from Facebook about the Donald Trump account ban.

And let’s talk about Joe Biden’s American Families Plan.

 

What is this American Families Plan Thing

Joe Biden wants to spend another $2 trillion for his American Families Plan. He made a big stink about it in his speech last week. Let’s take a look at the plan from the horse’s mouth at whitehouse.gov.

It starts:

Right now, too many Americans are struggling to meet basic needs and cover basic expenses. An economy that fails so many of us is not only unfair, it’s unsustainable. The American Families Plan is a once-in-a-generation investment in the foundations of middle-class prosperity – education, health care, and child care. It recognizes that policies to make life easier for American families must focus on bringing everyone along: inclusive of gender, race, or place of residence – urban, suburban, or rural. Beyond helping American families meet the needs of today, this plan powers the innovation and growth of tomorrow.

Of course, gender and race have to be brought up. You know something, I’m pretty sure all laws apply to you no matter your gender or race. That’s because this country is not systemically racist and all are laws are applied equally. I think I read that somewhere.

The plan is broken up into three sections.

The first section is titled Make education more affordable and expand opportunity. It includes:

Investing in education is a down payment on the future of America. The American Families Plan will make transformational investments from early childhood to postsecondary education so that all children and young people are able to grow, learn, and gain the skills they need to succeed.

Two free years of community college for millions of Americans.

What a waste. Today, people out of college are given entry level jobs. Why? Because they have no useful skills. Apparently mastering in Lesbian Dance Theory is not a useful skill. Reality is most college students take liberal arts not STEM courses. These are not useful.

Also, there is no limit on what students can take. They can take anything. Maybe force them to take something useful. I think trade schools would be far more helpful than a community college degree. To me, this seems like more of an opportunity to indoctrinate.

Here’s something I might support: money for trade schools where students actually learn a skill that can benefit society.

Universal access to high-quality, free Pre-K for 3- and 4- year-olds.

Really? Kids at 3 need free access to an education in block building? One word: indoctrination.

Lower college costs for low-and middle- income students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), and institutions such as Hispanic-serving institutions (HSIs), Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-serving institutions (AANAPISIs), and other minority-serving institutions (MSIs).

This is racist and unconstitutional. It is a law that favors one race over the other.

An increase of up to approximately $1,400 in Pell Grants and allowing DREAMers to access the funding.

Making future voters, illegal aliens, legal. Why is my tax money going to people who are not citizens and actually have no business being in this country?

Provide support to students to increase retention and completion.

Not sure what this is going to do but if students need help to retain and complete their college education, should they really be going to college?

A $9 billion investment to strengthen teacher pipelines and address shortages, increase the number of teachers of color, and support the growth of teachers.

This is more money to the teacher’s unions. Seriously, how much money do these people need? They haven’t worked in over a year!

The next section is entitled, Provide economic security for families

Our nation is strongest when everyone has the opportunity to join the workforce and contribute to the economy. But many workers struggle to both hold a full-time job and care for themselves and their families.

Ensure no one earning under 150% of state median income has to pay more than 7% of their income on high-quality care for children under 5.

This encourages single-home families. That’s what it’s for. I know we are in a society that discourages single motherhood and really doesn’t care about fathers. Heck, nuclear families with a stay-at-home parent has been condemned my Karl Marx himself. That’s because they want the government to be the second parent. Be damned to the kid being raised in a healthy, caring environment with two parents, the government will look like a foreigner.

This also brings up something that annoys the crap out of me: If you can’t afford kids, do not have kids until you can afford kids! 

Provide comprehensive paid family and medical leave, allowing workers to take the time they need to care for a new child, their own serious illness or a seriously ill loved one.

You know, I never got this. The reason is that business needed to run  even if I had a kid. Taking six months off to have a baby was never an option. If I needed six months off then I better start looking for another job. This is just not fair to the business, the business owner and my fellow employees.

That brings up another point: who is going to pay for this? What the hell do you need three to six months off for to take care of a kid and why should you get paid for it? Again, if one cannot afford to have a kid, do not have a kid.

Expand nutrition assistance, including school meal programs and the summer nutrition benefit program, for children and families.

More nanny-state crap.

There are three jobs of a parent: provide shelter, clothing and food. It’s not the government’s job to do that and none of those are a “right”.

If you can’t afford to feed a child, don’t have children.

Invest $3 billion in maternal health.

Not sure more money is a thing. There are a ton of services available already. I used to work for one. I would like to see what that $3 billion will be going to. Abortion on demand? Planned Parenthood? I might have a problem with this.

The final section is to Expand tax credits that help workers and families.

I don’t like this one. Tell me what you think:

Make the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit permanent, providing up to $4,000 to cover expenses related to care for a child under age 13 or dependent with a disability needing care and up to $8,000 to cover expenses for multiple children or dependents. Families making under $125,000 can claim the full credit, and families earning up to $438,000 can claim a partial credit. It will be fully refundable so low-income families who don’t owe a lot in taxes can fully benefit.

No, no, no.

This is paving the way for Universal Basic Income. This is already a serious drag on the debt. It is too expensive.

Again, if you can’t afford to raise a kid, do not have a kid.

Make the Earned Income Tax Credit Expansion for Childless Workers Permanent, benefitting 17 million low-wage workers, many of whom are essential workers including cashiers, cooks, delivery drivers, food preparation workers, and child care workers.

Paves the way for Universal Basic Income and more dependence on the government. If you are single, you should be able to take care of yourself.

Extend the Child Tax Credits increases in the American Rescue Plan for another five years – increasing tax credits for child under 6 from $2,000 to $3, 600 and for child over 6 from $2,000 to $3,000.

I wouldn’t mind this much except for the fact that the extra money given to those who qualify will be stolen from people who make more and are already paying a ton of money. This is just another way of redistributing wealth.

Lower health care costs by making the American Rescue Plan’s health insurance premium reductions permanent, saving families an average of $50 per person per month.

Make a bad idea permanent. We are going to see in the coming “Biden ideas” that he is slowly and through deception try to implement parts of the Obamacare plan. This is part of it.

And, remember this, it sounds like a little thing but that money is going to come from somewhere.

My Thoughts

The American Families Plan is simply a wealth redistribution plan. It’s socialism. It uses the greed of the middle and lowers classes to justify stealing money from those who make more. It’s a bad plan.

  • It is introducing us to the untenable Universal Basic Income.
  • It embraces bad decisions. Having children out of wedlock and having children when one can’t afford them just to name a couple.
  • It creates dependence on the government.
  • Doesn’t encourage people to work and improve themselves or their circumstance.

It is a bad and wasteful plan. It won’t pass by itself, if Republicans have the balls to wave it off. Joe Machin and Kirsten Sinima have already said they are not sure of this bill so it hardly looks like it has any chance of getting passed (much like Old Joe’s infrastructure bill).

We shall see.

Episode 339 – That’s Racist!

The Left continues to prove that they are racist.

Joe Biden is bringing back Obama’s tyranny.

And Old Joe just keeps creating his owns controversies.

 

That’s Racist

Tim Scott, the Senator from South Carolina said something that just could not be tolerated from a black man. Scott said this in response to Joe Biden’s speech last week. Listen:

Here’s the thing:

  • I did not listen to the speech because I thought he would be right. I like Tim Scott.
  • Time Scott was right.
  • Joe Biden’s speech was terrible, racist and completely missed the target when it came to the United States and the Constitution.
  • Old Joe is suffering from dementia.

But the Democrats response to Tim Scott’s speech was priceless because it showed just how racist the left is. And I mean they are racist. The way they have always been racist. And the blacks who have been subjugated by leftist racists have decided to join them and have also become racists.

By the way, all these people are white.

Sonny Hostin of The View said about Biden’s speech:

“We haven’t seen that kind of speech in four years. So I was really enamored of that. I was also really happy that he called out white supremacy. He clearly said that white supremacy is — our intelligence agencies have determined that white supremacy is terrorizing our country. That is just the truth of it.”

No, she was wrong. The speech was boring, filled with lies and divisive.

Then, Sonny had this to say about Tim Scott’s speech:

“I was disappointed that he said America is not a racist country without also talking about the systemic racism that is plaguing this country. Why was he chosen to give this rebuttal? He was chosen because he is the only black Republican senator,” she added. “He is that person. He is the person that Republicans want to put out front because of the problem of racism in this country and he knows that. So I was sort of disappointed that he was used in this way and didn’t take that opportunity to address that type of — this type of issue head-on. That was a disappointment to me.”

I do want to point out that Scott is the only black Senator. Guess how many black Senators the Democrats have: 2.

By the way, saying that the only reason Scott was picked to do the rebuttal is because he’s black, not an intelligent and important part of the Republican party and that he is right, is racist.

Not to be out-dumbed on The View, Joy Behar, an old, rich white woman said:

 

Gary O’Conner, a white representative from Texas stated:

“I had hoped that Scott might show some common sense, but it seems clear he is little more than an oreo with no real principles.”

There have been calls for him to resign. Probably won’t happen.

Are you seeing the pattern? There are more but I am not in the mood to hunt for ALL the racist videos out there because a black man, who is a Republican Senator, told the American public that the country is not systemically racist.

I just want to say something really out there:

  • Every comment by the leftist media and politicians about Tim Scott is racist.
  • Democrats are racist. They always have been…historically.
  • The Left is racist.
  • Critical race theory is racist.
  • American is not racist or systemically racist.
  • Most people in the United States are not racist.

Do you know who else thinks so? The Left. Their opinions are not being embraced by the public and we have an election coming up.

Maybe We Should Change Our Direction

Here’s the thing: systemic racism is not popular with the average citizen. What sucks for the Left is that there is going to be an election in 2022. They are beginning to see that. They are beginning to see that people do not like all this critical race theory crap.

Here We Go Again

Ugh…

Barrack Obama:

  • Weaponized the IRS.
  • Weaponized the Justice Department.
  • Weaponized the CIA.
  • Weaponized the FBI.
  • His his indiscretions with the Weather Underground, the Reverend Jeramiah Wright and a possible cocaine fueled, homosexual affair with a man named Larry Sinclair. I can’t confirm any of that because Larry Sinclair is dead. Sound familiar?
  • Imprisoned reporters.
  • Tapped phones.
  • Spread disinformation through the news media.
  • Ignored Joe Biden’s indiscretions, Hilary Clinton’s E-mail, blocked the Fast and the Furious scandal and lied about Benghazi.
  • Had news agencies investigated by the Justice Department.
  • Used CIA spies infiltrate the Trump campaign.
  • Created the scenario that led to the impeachment of President Trump.

Guess what? All that fun is starting again with Barrack’s minion Joe Biden.

Rudy Giuliani’s home in New York was raided early in the morning last Wednesday and confiscated a bunch of electronic equipment including phones, computers and tablets.

The raid, which was unjustified according to Giuliani’s attorney, who was all ready cooperating with the DOJ. Apparently, the DOJ is investigating a FARA violation that may have been committed by Giuliani when he was investigating Hunter Biden while in Ukraine.

Couple of problems with this:

  • FARA is the Foreign Agent Reporting Act.
  • Giuliani was Trump’s personal attorney. His investigation had nothing to do with the government so he was technically not an agent for the United States.
  • John Kerry did represent the United States, didn’t apply as an agent with Iran and tried to undermine Trump during his administration. This is what-aboutism but I find it disturbing.
  • FARA is probably unconstitutional because of free speech. That has never been litigated.
  • Seven people have been accused of a FARA violation and only three went to trial and no one got convicted. It’s a BS investigation.
  • This is just governmental bullying. The problem is that this type of bullying has a tendency to lead people to go broke. Ask Mike Flynn and Roger Stone.

So be prepared for all our governmental institutions are going to be politicized and they are going to be coming after us.

Biden Made This a Story

India is having a massive problem with COVID. The infection rates are the highest since the pandemic began and the death rates are so high they are burning bodies in the streets.

In order to contain the virus, Joe Biden has banned travel to and from India.

This makes sense and really shouldn’t be a surprise or controversial, right? Well, it is. That’s because when Trump halted travel to and from China in January of 2020, Joe Biden, then candidate for President, tweeted this:

There was definite backlash.

Episode 338 – Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire!

Joe Biden has his first State-of the-Something speech. I bet if you talk to Joe Biden, he wouldn’t know what it was. Or what time it was. or where it was. Or what day it was.

Whatever, let’s talk about it.

 

How’d the Speech Go

This speech was suppose to be a, kind of, State of the Union and an address for the Congress. Basically, Biden has hidden himself so much that he, or should I say, his administration is getting pressure to start talking.

But there is also a reason he needed to talk. He wants to push his American Families Plan. This is another $2 billion plan that does all sorts of bazaar things that will put us further into debt. This stuff is going to get harder and harder to sell.

In his first hundred days, Biden has passed:

  • The COVID rescue plan that was $2.4 trillion.
  • Proposed an infrastructure plan that only provides 6% of the $1.9 trillion to actual infrastructure.
  • We still have to pay over $4 trillion just to keep the government open.

 

Biden wants to spend over $10 trillion of our money, which we don’t have, on garbage programs. Later, we are going to go through the American Families Plan from the WhiteHouse.gov website and talk about what this plan is going to give money to. I don’t even want to waste much time on the speech because it was simply a a bunch of platitudes and lies.

  • First off, there were only 200 invited guests in a hall that holds about 1800. Everyone was distant but all were required to wear masks.
  • As Biden was walking in, everyone was fist bumping. Seemed more of a backyard grunge party than a political speech.
  • Biden started by pointing out he had a black woman as President of the Senate and a really old white woman as Speaker of the House. I’ll point out that this is a man who believes gender is fluid so why does he care.
  • He started by talking about how America is awesome. Weird since he, this week, was saying how we were all systemically racist.
  • He started selling his new plan saying how great it would be and that it would not add to the deficit. What?
  • He said that his plan would only affect people earning $400K a year. A lie.
  • He said the rich need to pay their fair share. A lie.
  • He took credit for the COVID thing…again.
  • We would “build back better” by “building back better”. OK.

0

As the speech went on, Joe began to lose it. He began to stumble. Fifty minutes into it he started to get mean against the United States. Just when people stopped listening. Or, like Ted Cruz and Chuck Schumer, started falling asleep. He talked about:

  • America is racist.
  • Guns violence is an epidemic and we must get rid of a gun.
  • He talks about rifles having 100 rounds. I’ve never even seen one.
  • He lied about gun violence and the “assault weapons” ban of the 90s.
  • He brought up the “ghost guns” thing…again.
  • White supremacy is a threat and is terrorism.
  • He said that January 6 was the worst thing to happen to the United States since the Civil War. No talk about the riots of the last year.
  • Allow men to compete against women.
  • Violence against women act. Guess what? It’s already illegal to kill or beat a woman.
  • He said some things that are really bad. Listen to the first:

 

No, no, no!

  • OK, the deer in the Kevlar vest thing was kind of funny. But the number of rounds doesn’t count, it’s the size of the bullet that matters.
  • By the way, armor-piercing bullets are illegal? Really?
  • I’m a proud gun guy but I’ve never seen a 100-round magazine. In fact, I thought they were already illegal.
  • Anyway, who is he to say what I need? Maybe I do need a 100-round magazine. Maybe I have a bad rabbit problem who keep eating my “organic” lettuce and carrots? Maybe there are so many bunnies, their farts are eating the O-zone layer?
  • Gun owners do not support this. That’s a lie.
  • Or maybe I fear a tyrannical government is trying to violate my Constitutional rights and I want to fight that tyranny. That’s what the Second Amendment is about. Don’t believe me? Read it.
  •  Finally, the Constitution is absolute. If the law is not mentioned in the Constitution, then the law is up to the states.
  • In fact, the Second Amendment of the Constitution is so absolute, people were able to keep cannons in there homes and ships. Because it was absolute.
  • As far as the “You can’t yell fire in a crowded theater,” that’s BS. It’s not law. You can. If there’s a fire in a crowded theater. If you do and there is no fire, you are civically libel. Not Constitutionally.

 

This just proves that Joe Biden doesn’t not believe in the Constitution.

In the Constitution, “We the people…” does not mean all people. Those in the government are not considered, “We the people…”. The Constitution means citizens of the United States. It’s written to protect us from government.

Here’s the thing, the Founding Fathers were afraid we would free ourselves from one tyrannical government just to be overtaken by another, in this case organic, tyrannical government. Government officials are still considered citizens from “We the People” but were seen as very ambitious. So ambitious that they would become tyrants is left unchecked.

Episode 336 – I’m Becoming Cynical in my Old Age

Let’s talk abut Caitlyn Jenner. Some things may surprise you.

Joe Biden does a good thing…I think.

Then he does a bad thing.

Why Not?

As I said last week, Catlyn Jenner, or Bruce Jenner to my generation, has decided to run for California governor. She’s trying to replace Gavin Newsom, who is being recalled.

In his statement, Jenner said:

“California has been my home for nearly 50 years. I came here because I knew that anyone, regardless of their background or station in life, could turn their dreams into a reality. But for the past decade, we have seen the glimmer of the Golden State reduced by one-party rule that places politics over progress and special interests over people. Sacramento needs an honest leader with a clear vision.”

“I am a proven winner and the only outsider who can put an end to Gavin Newsom’s disastrous time as governor.”

You knew that was coming. He is going to be running as a Republican on the platform of lowering taxes and pushing business. Something he says was destroyed due to overdone lockdowns during COVID.

He also took some at Newsom:

“This isn’t the California we know. This is Gavin Newsom’s California, where he orders us to stay home but goes out to dinner with his lobbyist friends.”

He was referencing Newsom getting caught dining with friends indoors without masks at The French Laundry, an opulent Napa Valley restaurant that charges $1,200 per person for a white truffle and caviar dinner.

Reaction

One would think that Jenner, a Trans female, would be really popular in California. He won an Olympic gold medal in 1976 in the decathlon, he was on the popular reality TV show, Keeping Up with the Kardashians. He has always been a supporter of the LGBTQ community. Then he had a sex change a few years ago and became ESPN’s Person of the Year.

Shortly after Jenner made the big announcement that they would run for governor, LGBTQ activists were upset that Jenner would be running as a Republican.

Equity California, an LGBTQ organization, tweeted right after Jenner announced:

“Make no mistake: we can’t wait to elect a #trans governor of California. But @Caitlyn_Jenner spent years telling the #LGBTQ+ community to trust Donald Trump. We saw how that turned out. Now she wants us to trust her? Hard pass.”

I find it funny. Trump actually has always been supportive of the LGBTQ except when it came to the military. And that was based on a recommendation from the military itself.

See, it’s all about the identity until the beliefs are different.  Then their identity doesn’t matter.

Well, it doesn’t sound like Jenner buys all the LGBTQ crap either. Last week,  The Views Joy Behar apologized for “misgendering” him. Kind of like I’m doing now. But I can’t get over calling Bruce Jenner a her. When asked about it, Jenner said  she thought there were more important things to worry about in California than using the wrong pronouns. I like that.

Politics isn’t going to be what the media will be beating on. Jenner does have some skeletons. He was involved in a car accident that killed a person. Neither drugs nor alcohol were involved but it was found to be Jenner’s fault.

Jenner supported Ted Cruz in the 2016 election. When Trump won, Jenner didn’t like what Trump did with the LGBTQ and stopped supporting him though rumors have it he loved Trump’s foreign and economic policies.

Will I vote for him? Not sure. I don’t know who else is running and still need to see his policies on important things like the economy, immigration and the homeless issue. I am also curious to see what he does about voter reform in this state.

Be honest with you, I would vote for a transgender rabbit with wings and horns if it fixed this state.

This Was a Good Move

I give Joe Biden a load of crap but I will give him credit when credit is due.

In a call to the President, or dictator, of Turkey, Joe Biden said he was going to acknowledge the Armenian genocide that occurred about a century ago. The genocide and displacement was responsible for the deaths of about 1.5 million Armanians.

Acknowledgement of this has been promised by past presidents. I remember this being a story during the Clinton administration. But no President had the guts to do it because Turkey has been such an important ally.

Though I agree with this,  I am cynical. I asked myself why he would do this now when there really isn’t much of a benefit to it?

Well,  tensions between Israel and Iran are kicking up again. Apparently, Israel attacked an Iranian nuclear facility, destroying several nuclear centerfuges. Iran responded by using their terrorist network in Syria to shoot missiles into Israel. Of course Israel is responding. Things are really heating up in the Middle East and we know how Joe Biden loves Israel.

So what does that have to do with Turkey?

Turkey has always been a base for the United States when there are conflicts in the Middle East. They were during the Iraq wars and the conflicts in Syria. If Turkey refuses to be an ally because of this, it would be an excuse the Biden administration can use not to get involved in a conflict between Iran and Israel.

Biden is also really pushing rejoining this Iranian nuclear agreement. I think he’d do anything to get that ball rolling again including screwing Israel.

The left, for some reason, loves the Palastinians and have always d we demonized Israel for it. Even the  Palistinians are run by a terrorist organization that suppresses their people. They would love to see Israel wiped from the face of the earth.

We will have to see what is going to happen. But I don’t think Biden did this for some sort of historical significance.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/report-biden-tells-turkish-president-erdogan-he-will-recognize-armenian-genocide

 

This Is a Dumb Move

With the good the Biden administration does comes a dumb move.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken has given blanket approval for U.S. embassies and consulates around the world to fly the rainbow LGBT pride flag on the same pole as the American flag.

This Was done because the Trump administration banned flags of these sorts on federal buildings. He did this because he believed the flag of the United States said all about us it needed to. Our flag represents all the people not just a subset of its population. It was part of his America First policy.

The thing is, for Americans, we understood this. Biden’s move just shows that he’s not America First. He’s about creating divisions. He’s about certain groups, certain Americans. Not America as a whole.

I know if I walked into a federal building,  like an American embassy,  I can tell you that flag doesn’t represent me. The only flag the represent me is the old stars and stripes. Our flag encompasses all Americans no matter their beliefs.

This story makes me wish Trump was still on Twitter. I would love to hear his opinion on this one. And you know he’d have an opinion and it would probably be funny.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-admin-gives-green-light-to-fly-rainbow-flags-at-u-s-embassies-worldwide

 

Ole

A bunch of cops were on a call and, of course, they had to be harassed by a couple of black teens, recording with $600 cell phones so they could upload it to social media. But one of the police officers had a response when asked by one of the teens if he was going to shoot him.

The video did go viral. But I don’t think it went viral for the right reasons. That cop made that little rat scallion look stupid, admitting that the girl actually tried to stab someone.

Now, there is a rumor on Twitter, which one has to take with a grain of salt, that the police officer is facing suspension for “unprofessional behavior”. Not sure how it is unprofessional. Unprofessional would have been to pull his billy club out and start beating the crap out of this kid which is what he really needs.

By the way, I think the cop might have been a person of color. It’s hard to say because he’s wearing a mask but there was at least one black cop there.

And, just a little update, the kid didn’t get cited, arrested, beaten, tased or shot. He just looked stupid in the video when he posted it.

Episode 337 – More Double Standards

John Kerry might be in some trouble but I doubt it.

About 1.6 million people don’t like Gavin Newsom.

People are saying chow to blue states.

And the federalization of local police departments starts.

 

When Is His Prosecution

John Kerry is in some trouble. It’s going to be interesting to see if anything happens to him.

  • A tape of a conversation with  Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif was secretly released without his knowledge.
  • This was a big deal. It showed that it was actually the Iran Revolutionary Guard and the Mulluahs creating the policies in Iran, not the political arm of the government.
  • This was suspected but now has been confirmed. This is important because the Revolutionary Guard is responsible for a lot of terrorist plots.
  • In the tape also came the surprise that John Kerry, the former Secretary of State, was telling Zarif that Israel was responsible for more than 200 attacks on Iran.
  • News flash: this is against the law. He’s not allowed to do that. He cannot give classified information when he is no longer in the administration

 

Kerry tweeted:

“I can tell you that this story and these allegations are unequivocally false. This never happened – either when I was Secretary of State or since.”

When asked, Jen Psaki, the Press Secretary, said:

“We’re not going to comment on leaked tapes.”

Listen, John Kerry is a piece of crap. There was no question he was undermining the Trump administration during his presidency. Kerry was Iran twice and he had no business to be there. That’s because Trump pulled out of the JCPOA. He was recorded saying that Iran would just have to wait until the Trump administration was replaced and things would go back to the way they were with the next administration.

That’s not only a foreign agent violation, I would call it treason or, at least, sedition.

A bunch or Republicans are calling for Kerry to resign:

  • Rep. Elise Stafanik (R-NY): “his is a criminal act and John Kerry must be immediately investigated and PROSECUTED. President Biden must immediately remove John Kerry from any government or advisory position.”
  • Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley: “This is disgusting on many levels. Biden and Kerry have to answer for why Kerry would be tipping off Iran, the number one sponsor of terror, while stabbing one of our greatest partners, Israel, in the back.”
  • Donald Trump Jr.: “Imagine for a second a Trump official sitting on the NSC, like Kerry does, told Iran details about Israeli strikes? I believe the media would be screaming TREASON and they wouldn’t be too far off, but of course they’ll say and do nothing because they’re useless propagandists.”
  • Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN): “John Kerry must resign immediately. The investigation should be retrospective.”
  • Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR): “These reports are concerning—I’d like the opportunity to ask Secretary Kerry about this in a closed hearing.”
  • Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN): “If intel leak rumors are true, John Kerry should seriously consider resignation.”
  • Sens. Dan Sullivan (R-AK) and Rick Scott (R-FL) both called for Kerry to resign.

 

Listen, nothing is going to happen to him. But, if I were the Republicans, I would go after him. Hard. I would not only try to get him kicked out of office but I would try to get him indicted. The same thing happened to General Mike Flynn, who actually didn’t do anything illegal. And, if Kerry did say this, he gave away classified information that puts in danger one of our allies. I know he hates Jews and Israel but it is illegal to give away classified information. He should be indicted for that too.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/a-criminal-act-calls-grow-for-kerry-to-resign-following-explosive-report-gop-demands-investigations

 

It’s a Go!

The recall count has just been completed and we will have a recall election in California!

Gavin Newsom, the incompetent and hypocrite governor of California, is facing the second recall in my lifetime. He has been an absolute disaster and I would not be surprised if he were actually recalled.

  • His COVID response was terrible.
  • His state has the highest taxes in the country and a huge debt problem.
  • His state has the highest homeless rate in the country.
  • He has a huge drug and crime problem in the state.
  • He’s a hypocrite on his COVID policy, spending time, unmasked, at the French Laundry Restaurant.
  • His immigration policy is very unpopular.
  • His transgender policy is very unpopular.

 

The recall is a two-step process. First, we vote on the recall. If we say “no” done. If we say “yes” we vote for another candidate. All we know is Caitlyn Jenner is running so we’ll see who actually runs.

I don’t think anything is going to happen. He won’t be recalled. Not because he wasn’t but because California is so corrupt that he will get away with it. I do not know one person, and I know a lot of people, who think he’s doing a good job or likable. I don’t know one person who is not going to vote to recall him. That includes leftists.

I have a feeling this recall election is just going to confirm my distrust of the voting process in California.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-gov-newsom-recall-moves-forward-after-petition-reaches-1-6-million-verified-signatures

 

Speaking of F-ed Up States

People are getting sick and tired of these liberal states. The census numbers are out and the Democrats are running into some problems.

Democrats may now lose the Congress. They only have a 5 or 6 lead in it now.

Hopefully, those leaving blue states will not bring their crappy beliefs to the red states. What I think is that most people that actually vote red are moving to red states. That’s why I’m moving. I won’t be in California much longer because I hate this state.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-five-out-of-seven-new-seats-go-to-red-states-after-reapportionment-following-census

 

Here We Go

The Department of Justice is now launching a probe into the Louisville, Kentucky police department. This comes after the Justice Department is running the same investigation into the Minneapolis Police Department.

This is not good:

  • Small police departments can’t compete financially with the Justice Department. They usually concede and adopt the Justice Department’s recommendations.
  • The problem with these investigations is they only look at who is being arrested and pulled over but do not look at the actual crimes committed and who committed them. They assume everyone is innocent.
  • The recommendations usually do not lower crime. In fact, Obama did this several times during his Presidency and crime in each of those cities went up.
  • This is really bad because it federalizes local police jurisdictions

 

.This is the federal government taking control.

Episode 335 – More Dumb

I never really finished with all the stupid stories that I wanted to talk about on Monday. And there are a ton of them. I decided to take a little time and finish these stories up. Let’s face it, there is way too much coverage of the big news out there and I don’t want to just rehash everything.

So, let’s get to it.

 

Nothing but BS

I’m really late on this one but it is too much just to skip.

Do you remember last year when it was reported that Donald Trump was told that the Russians were giving radical Muslims bounties on the killing of American soldiers. He was condemned throughout the media for it and Joe Biden during both debates used that to show that Trump hated the military? Remember that?

Trump reported that the story was not true and unverified.

The intelligence community said that it was unverified and was never even reported to the President.

Well, guess what? The intelligence community reported that the story had little to no verification and was probably untrue.

This is a two part clip. I want you to listen Jen Psaki when she is asked about the truth of Russia not putting bounties on American troops:

Do you know how a leftist is lying? She starts talking. Her answer was to “Does the Biden administration believe that the Russia placed bounties on American soldiers?”

A truth-teller would say, “No.” That’s it. But Jen Psaki is a liar and she knows what the next question is going to be so she throws out this word salad that no one understands.

Then comes the question:

By the way, no asked about the previous administration. The question was about your administration.

Again a 45 second question to a two second answer. “Yeah, we f-ed up and, no, we don’t care. No apologies”

The media beat the garbage out of this narrative for a week and it all turned out to be a lie.

https://www.foxnews.com/media/media-critics-erupt-russia-bounty-fizzles-nonsense

 

You’ve Got to be Kidding

Need some more proof that the United Nations is a garbage heap and needs to be removed from the United States and sent to Venezuela? Heck, it’s on prime New York property and we could always use another Starbucks.

The United Nations has selected Iran and China to be on their Commission on the Status of Women. Really?

Iran does not permit their women to drive, vote, date, watch videos, marry or divorce. Killing a woman in Iran by her husband is considered an honor crime. Disrespect of her husband could be a death sentence. A single woman traveling without a male family member could lead to imprisonment. Not covering her face could lead to imprisonment. Rape is considered the fault of the woman and she could face imprisonment.

That’s right! A woman could be imprisoned for being raped! Talk about #MeToo.

Yeah, this sounds like a country that should be analyzing and weighing in on women’s rights.

China is running concentration camps that is forcibly sterilizing Uyiger women, committing gang rape and had the One Child Policy that forced women to get abortions if the family already had a child. Yeah, this sounds like a country that should be analyzing and weighing in on women’s rights.

Why this garbage organization continues to be supported by the United States, even getting quality land in New York City amazes me.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/u-n-elects-iran-china-to-womens-rights-commission

 

Yeah, That’ll Work

From ABC News:

The city of Berkeley, California, moved forward Wednesday with a proposal to eliminate police from conducting traffic stops and instead use unarmed civilian city workers as part of a broad overhaul of law enforcement. The City Council also set a goal of cutting the police budget by 50%.

Yeah, that’s going to work great. Leave it to Berkley, land of the hippies to come up with some stupid ass crap like that.

Mayor Jesse Arreguin said:

“For far too long public safety has been equated with more police.”

Do I even need to comment on this? Well I will anyway. What if:

  • The driver is armed?
  • The driver is drunk?
  • What if the driver has drugs?
  • The driver makes a break for it?
  • The driver has a warrant?
  • What if the driver just doesn’t give a damn?

 

See the problem?

  • Berkley has 54% white, 20% Asian and 8% black.
  • Out of 77,000 call in 2020, there have been a total of 32 police use-of-force calls.
  • Of the 77,000 police calls, 3000 led arrest.
  • That means that, of the 77,000 police interactions only led to 4×10^4 of calls led to use of force or .0004%. That is 4% of all police calls led to an arrest.
  • Of the 3000 arrests, 30% were black. That means 900 0f the 3000 were of black people.

 

Yeah. A lot of police brutality in Berkley, CA. This procedure is going to be implemented in September of this year.

Tyranny

Democratic Oregon Gov. Kate Brown’s health department has proposed a permanent masking rule as the current regulations are set to expire next month.

The Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Division, led by administrator Michael Wood, received 5,000 comments on the proposed rule before the public comment period ended.

Wood said:

“The majority of comments were simply hostile to the entire notion of COVID-19 restrictions. The vast majority of comments were in the context of, ‘You never needed to do anything.’”

You think?

Wood floated the proposal to keep masking requirements in place until “no longer necessary to address the effects of the pandemic in the workplace” last month. Wood said that the new “permanent” rule is needed to keep the current regulations from expiring on May 4.

Republican State Senator Kim Thatcher said:

“When will masks be unnecessary? What scientific studies do these mandates rely on, particularly now that the vaccine is days away from being available to everyone? Businesses have had to play ‘mask cop’ for the better part of a year now. They deserve some certainty on when they will no longer be threatened with fines.”

News flash: This is the goal of Democrats and leftists. Control. They are using this pandemic, which is almost over, as a “crisis” to maintain control and obedience.

We are being told by Joe Biden that if others do not want to get vaccinated, and I don’t blame them, we might have to cancel Independence Day celebrations. That’s a tad ironic.

Well, here’s a news flash: No one is going to care about what Joe Biden thinks. We have been dealing with this pandemic for a year and I think we’re pretty done being told what we can’t do. So Biden can f-off with his threats and I’ll eat a big burger and hot dog on July 4th with all my family.

The Embrace of Perversion

Remember when I told you I was never really against gay marriage but I was afraid that it will open up the flood gates of perversion.

So far, I have not been wrong at all.

In New York, a lawsuit has been filed by a mother who thinks she should be able to marry her adult son. She argues that making incest illegal is unconstitutional.

The names, ages and genders of the people is unknown and has not been made public.

The suit says the parent wishes to remain anonymous because they recognize that their hope of marrying their child is ‘an action that a large segment of society views as morally, socially and biologically repugnant.’

According to the Daily Mail, the lawsuit reads:

‘The proposed spouses are adults. The proposed spouses are biological parent and child,’ the suit reads.

‘The proposed spouses are unable to procreate together.’

According to the suit, the parent and child regard themselves as a ‘PAACNP’ couple – ‘Parent and Adult Child Non-Procreationable’ couple – and believe it would ‘diminish their humanity’ if they could not marry one another.   

The claimant argues that the ‘enduring bond of marriage’ would take the parent and child union to a ‘greater level of expression, intimacy and spirituality.’ 

‘Parent-and-adult-child couples for whom procreation is either virtually or literally impossible can aspire to the transcendent purposes of marriage and seek fulfillment in its highest meaning,’ the suit reads. 

New York attorneys say there is very little chance the suit is going to go anywhere but can you imagine how f-ed up our society is to believe that this might be something that a court will go with.

Speaking of Perversion

Caitlyn Jenner, who used to be Bruce Jenner before he decided he was a woman, has decided to run for governor as a Republican during the recall election against the current governor Gavin Newsom.

Our society has gone so crazy this is not only unsurprising but Jenner will probably win.

Episode 334 – Mob Justice

The George Floyd trial ends with Derrick Chauvin being convicted on all counts. But, with the reactions of the results, we can see that this will never end.

 

The Verdict

The verdict is in:

There are major questions about this trial. I saw him getting man slaughter but never thought he was going to get convicted of murder because I didn’t think the evidence was there.

It took ten hours for the jury to convict Chauvin and they had no questions. This was a month long trial and it only took them ten hours?

The jury basically had to ignore some things:

  • The drugs in his system. Fentanyl and meth.
  • The fact that Floyd overdosed in drugs two months before.
  • Floyd’s enlarged heart.
  • Floyd’s constricted arteries to his heart.
  • Floyd’s hypertension.
  • Floyd’s criminal history.
  • The videos.
  • The lies about Chauvin being on his neck.
  • The assault Floyd committed in the police car.
  • Floyd resisting arrest.

 

The reality is the jurors feared the consequences of voting not guilty. There is no way they could convict on murder in only ten hours. The fact that the media already had a description of all the jurors is very telling and that all of them lived in the area.

This is what is going to lead to appeals. There was plenty done wrong in this case and I don’t see how an appeals court doesn’t overturn some of this. This might even lead to a mistrial.

  • Change of venue.
  • Sequestration.
  • Non-probative, prejudicial witnesses for the prosecution.
  • Biden and Waters comments.
  • Third degree murder? Depraved Heart murder?
  • Second degree murder? Intent to assault which caused the death of an individual?

 

I am a cynical guy these days. I would not be shocked if this case was declared a mistrial and will need to be retried. Not because of all the bad decisions by Judge Cahill but because the left wants a retrial. The left wants to be able to point and say there can never be justice for black people.

We will see because this is going to be appealed and the case for appeal is quite strong.

 

 

Reaction

The reaction from George Floyd’s girlfriend is basically the reaction everybody had:

BLM and Antifa continued to protest. They made it clear that they would never be satisfied with the results.

  • These people are never going to stop. Peace and justice aren’t enough.
  • They see Chauvin’s conviction as justice but see it as motivation to continue on trying to destroy the system.
  • They want communism, the ending of the police. Heroes are criminals and criminals are heroes.
  • George Floyd is not seen as a criminal but as a symbol. He is seen as one being sacrificed for the movement. Not a drug addict handing out a fake $20.
  • These people do not care about George Floyd or Derrick Chauvin. They care about destroying the system.
  • I also want to point out that everybody I’m going to talk about is basically admitting they influenced the jury.

 

Al Sharpton, maybe the greatest race baiter in modern American history, said:

 “… we don’t find pleasure in this. We don’t celebrate a man going to jail. We would have rather George be alive. But we celebrate that we — because young people, white and black — some castigated, many that are here tonight, marched and kept marching and kept going. Many of them looked down on but they kept marching and wouldn’t let this die. And this is an assurance to them that if we don’t give up that we can win some rounds but the war and the fight is not over. Just two days from now, we are going to have to deal with the funeral of Duante Wright in this same county, this same area.

“We still have cases to fight. But this gives us the energy to fight on and we are determined that we are going to fight until we make federal law — the George Floyd Justice In Policing Act must be law. We want to thank all that were involved, especially the attorney general and the governor and others.

“We want to thank President Biden, who the first time he came out of his house during the campaign he flew to Houston and met with the family and Attorney Crump and I. And he sat there and I will never forget — he said to George’s daughter that ‘I heard you say your father is going to change the world.’ Well, we can now tell George’s daughter she was right. Her father has begun the changing of the world for real.”

  • Again, this will never end.
  • George Floyd is not going to change the world. He’s not a hero. He’s not a civil rights champion. He didn’t die for the cause.
  • He was a criminal that died for resisting arrest and drugs.
  • One of Floyd’s supporters actually compared George Floyd to Emmitt Till. This is insane.

Reaction in Politics

Biden and Harris

President Biden and President-in-waiting Kamala Harris weighed in on this. Of course, what they promulgated, as usual, is that we are systemically racist and we need President Biden and the federal government to change the system, have more power and save black people.

Kamala Harris said:

Biden’s comments weren’t much better and certainly didn’t deviate from the narrative:

OK:

  • I find it creepy that Kamala is with Old Joe all the time.
  • Let’s face it, this is only a local crime. Why is the White House weighing in on this? Could it be to push this narrative?
  • Old Joe and Kamala are pushing that this verdict is only the start and the end is no where to be seen.
  • Notice they talk about the “protests” of last summer. There is no mention of the riots. These riots are continuing. They have not stopped. The violence happened again last night.
  • There was never a comment about the police being good in any way.
  • They are bringing up something that the prosecution never brought up: race or racism.
  • What is really ironic is hearing about systemic racism coming from a guy who has been part of the system for 60 years and a gal who was known for throwing people in jail for longer than their sentences in some cases.
  • The thought that these two boneheads are going to fix anything is crazy.

 

These guys want to federalize everything. They want power. They need the “crisis” to continue. It cannot end with a guilty verdict of Derrick Chauvin. I’ll go a step further: I feel they really wanted a not guilty verdict. That would have gone with the narrative much better.

Nancy Pelosi

This had to be one of the most idiotic statements by a politician. OK, I didn’t get to AOC and her squad yet. But let’s listen to Nancy Pelosi:

  • This just an insane statement and actually very cold.
  • George Floyd did not sacrifice anything for anything. This wasn’t his attempt at social and racial justice. He probably died of a heart attack and a drug overdose.
  • George Floyd was not calling out to his mom, who died two years earlier. They think he was calling out to his girlfriend who he called mom. It was the name of her contact on his phone.
  • Floyd was saying “I can’t breathe” while he was sitting in his own car. He said it about 10 times.
  • This is trying to to make a martyr out of a criminal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Do you see a pattern here? This is not going to end until the entire system is torn down.

Ilhan Omar, in a series of tweets, really summed up what the squad and the left wants.

Omar listed the following items, which included calls to disband police departments:

  • Independent agency to investigate police misuse of force
  • Criminalize violence against protesters
  • Demilitarize police departments
  • Disband and deconstruct failed police departments
  • End traffic stops for minor equipment violations
  • Federal investigations into departments who utilize practices like arrest quotas
  • End the school-to-prison pipeline
  • Ban all racial profiling by federal, state, and local agencies
  • Legalize recreational cannabis nationwide, expunge the records and seek amnesty for those incarcerated for cannabis-related offenses
  • Restore felon voting rights
  • Ensure that formerly incarcerated individuals are fully supported in their transition back to society
  • End mandatory minimum sentencing laws for low-level offenses
  • Invest in a public-health approach to the addiction crisis

 

Getting a clearer picture to what the left wants? Anyone who is against this is a racist.

Need to Keep the Crisis Going

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/derek-chauvin-verdict-garland-announces-doj-minneapolis-policing-probe

 

Here We Go Again

Need more proof that this is never going to end? Yesterday in Columbus, Ohio, a couple of hours before the Chauvin verdict, police were called because a 16-year-old girl, who was black, threatened people with a knife.

The girl was shot after she appeared to attack two girls with a knife. The officer was white. There are huge protests over this whole thing so the Columbus police department released the body cam footage. It showed the girl in question push one girl down and attack another girl, also 16, with the knife.

By the way, the girl who dialed 911 and was attacked with the knife is also black. That officer saved her life.

Ben Crump, the race-baiting lawyer representing the family of George Floyd released a tweet:

See the pattern? Lies, lies, lies. All this to stir up emotion and suppress reason. This girl was intent on killing someone. Another black person. It was never mentioned that a white police officer saved the life of a black youth.

Now, I feel that this case is so obvious that it’s going to go away. There is no way the left is going to BS this story into something it’s not. It’s too obvious. This girl assaulted two other girls with a knife. This police officer is a hero. But he’s under criminal investigation anyway.

This is what is going to happen in the next couple of years because the left won’t stop gaslighting and enraging the naïve youth:

  • The good police officers will start retiring.
  • Those left will not go out of their way to help people for fear of being persecuted.
  • Cities will have problems getting new police officers.
  • With less police officers on the street there will be more crime.
  • The most crime will be in black, brown and poor neighborhoods.

 

It’s that simple. The good news is that gun ownership is going to go up because the people are going to learn to protect themselves.

Here’s the thing and I am going to use some terms from greater minds than I:

  • This was a mob conviction. And mobs are never sated. This will never end. Everyone on the left has said it. -Tucker
  • George Floyd has become a symbol, a martyr, an idol.
  • Politics has hijacked the Floyd movement and our institutions. The courts were the last remnants of our civilization. It looks like even that has been taken over. There were some Conservatives that were relieved that Chauvin was guilty. It’s cowardice and it will never end unless we fight, but one can understand. -Greg Gutfeld.
  • This trial was influenced by politicians and rioters. Violence works is the message. Rioting works.

Episode 333 I Love Talking About Dumb

Sometimes we, as Americans, are so busy worrying about dumb things that we forget there are actually real issues in the world.

Let’s go through some of the news, talk about some of those dumb things and then talk about some of those things we might be missing.

 

Rest in Peace

Walter Mondale passed away at the age of 93. Most people won’t remember much about him and that’s not a surprise. He wasn’t a really relevant politician in my time.

  • He was born on January 25, 1928 in Minneapolis, MN.
  • He served as a Senator from Minnesota from 1964-1976.
  • He served as Vice President under Jimmie Carter from 1976-1980.
  • He ran for President in 1984 against Ronald Reagan.
  • Mondale chose U.S. Representative Geraldine Ferraro from New York as his running mate, making her the first woman nominated for that position by a major party.
  • He ran on raising taxes to cut the deficit and support the ERA.
  • He lost that election by one of the largest landslides in history, only winning his home state and Washington DC.

 

What a Dumbass

The judge in the Derrick Chauvin trial had some rather harsh words about Maxine Watters during a request for a mistrial. Judge Peter Cahill said:

Cahill also said that this could be means for overturning a verdict on appeal since it sis sound like Watters was trying to intimidate the jury. The defense council brought up the fact the jury was not sequestered and the news of the trial is everywhere. The judge rejected the defense’s stance saying there was no evidence the jury was not following his orders not to watch the news.

What Happens When Libs Get Extra Money

Los Angeles is $5.1 billion in debt. Now, that’s not the state of California, that only Los Angeles. That will cost each tax payer would have to pay an extra $4000 to dig us out of this debt.

Now, Los Angeles and California will receive money from Joe Biden’s COVID recovery bill, which is something that really turned Republicans off to the law. Actually, it turned off all of the Republicans. So is the mayor of Los Angeles, Eric Garcetti, going to used that money to balance his mismanaged budget? Of course. He’s going to spend it.

It has been reported that Eric Garcetti is going to implement a Universal Basic Income trial that will give $1000 a month to 2000 families in Los Angeles below the federal poverty line. This is part of his Equity and Justice budget.

The program is called “BIG: LEAP,” an acronym for Basic Income Guaranteed: L.A. Economic Assistance Pilot. It will cost $24 million.

When asked, Garcetti said:

“We have to end America’s addiction to poverty. For families who can’t think past the next bill, the next shift or the next health problem that they have, we can give them the space to not only dream of a better life, but to actualize it.”

OK:

  • So he expects to end poverty by giving away money?
  • What this actually does it put more people under more dependence of the government.
  • Universal Basic Income has been tried over and over again and has failed.
  • It was tried in Stockton, California for about three months. Guess what happened? Stockton ran out of money.
  • It’s these redistribution programs which are killing California and is causing their tax base, like Tesla, to move out of California.
  • I think it would be much better if Mayor Garcetti decided to pay off his debt instead of giving money away and increasing the debt.

Changing of Language

President Joe Biden has banned federal immigration agencies from using terms such as “alien,” “assimilation,” and “illegal alien” in official documents and statements.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) acting director Tae Johnson said:

“In response to the vision set by the Administration, ICE will ensure agency communications use the preferred terminology and inclusive language.”

OK:

  • The term, “illegal alien” is a legal term. It has nothing to do with race.
  • Biden is changing the terms to make illegal aliens more legal. I won’t change my usage of the term for this reason.
  • It amazes me that the reason Biden is contacting ICE is to change their terminology. You’d think he’d be more worried about the disaster on the border than the terms they use in their reports.

How Is She an Expert?

Greta Thunberg has come out of her basement and continued to chastise society for not doing what she wants us to do. I think this is great because now she is 18-years-old and now I can make fun of her without being accused of being mean to a child (which I never gave a damn about anyway).

Here she is at a World Health Organization presser discussing how the vaccine distribution is not equitable:

A few things here:

What is she doing at a WHO presser? She just, theoretically, a high school graduate. She has no expertise in anything and is autistic. As far as I’m concerned, this really damages the already rickety credibility of the WHO. And who is she to listen to when in comes to prioritizing who gets vaccinated.

I will also point out that she never actually thinks anything of this up. We already know that her father is running her Twitter account. If you watch the video, one can see she is actually reading a prepared statement. In the past, when she had to speak in front of the press without any preparation, she couldn’t seem to get a word out. She should just have her parents talk to the WHO.

A couple of things she says here are kind of odd:

  • The richer countries are getting vaccinated, and I think she’s specifically speaking of the United States because she hates us, we came up with the vaccine. We pain for the production of the vaccine. If Ghana wants the vaccine, they can invent, produce and distribute it.
  • She also brings up this from the stance of globalism and anti-capitalism. That’s her real thing. She does the same thing with environmentalism. She doesn’t go to China about any of this. She points only to the United States. She detests nationalism which the left always associates with white nationalism or white supremacy.
  • I’m a proud nationalist. You know what other country is? China.

The Real Problems

Remember I said a while back that we have become such a self-centered society we only fight about the stupid things and are missing that there is an entire world out there? By the way, I have two other stupid stories but you’ll have to wait for those till tomorrow.

We, Joe Biden’s weakness is beginning to embolden other countries and is pissing other leaders. Jen Psaki is being asked some question about it and her answer is always to circle-back to it. But we are really looking at some serious conflicts that are probably going to read their heads in the next year and I don’t know if the administration has the leadership to deal with them.

  • Iran is purifying uranium to the highest purity that they ever reached, 60%. I think it might be a little late to rejoin the Iranian Nuclear Agreement.
  • China is running fighter jets over Taiwan. The Taiwanese have asked for more weapons to counter the threat.
  • Russia’s military is building up on the Ukrainian border. The troop counts are as high as they were since the 2014 invasion of Crimea.
  • North Korea has started missile testing again and still refuses to communicate with the Biden administration.
  • The Presidents of El Salvador, Guatemala and  Honduras are blaming the Biden administration for opening the borders and causing mass migrations from their countries. This is an issue for them because they are losing working age males.
  • The President of Mexico is blaming Biden for the open border policy because the cartels are getting rich and more powerful through human trafficking. This is making them hard for the Mexican government to deal with.

 

We are so busy in this country worrying about race, police, equity and whether a man can compete against women we are missing the big picture.

By the way, did you know the United States flew a drone on Mars yesterday.
