The Ragin Cajun Predicts Crockett's Over the Top Rhetoric Will Doom Her Campaign

 

James Carville, “The Ragin Cajun” has failed to Trump wins predict
Probably like most Americans he was astounded Biden’s basement campaign succeeded in a Trump loss to inflict
The Ragin Cajun anxious to be on top again of winners’ prediction game
Astutely Crockett with her foul rhetoric in the Texas Senate race will go down in flames
First she attacked the sitting Governor Greg Abbott confined to a wheel chair as “Governor Hot Wheels
Her lack of any humanity the idiotic over the top rhetoric she with the attack revealed
Second and just as bad she demeaned Hispanics who voted for Trump as having a slave mentality
Which violates a basic axiom of politics that she may attack the candidate but attacking his voters generates to her campaign lethality
In Texas hearing someone’s endless and useless prattle
The speaker is ridiculed as all hat but having no cattle
Hearing Crockett ranting lacking ideas to improve the voter’s lot
The saying is modified to “she has no brains and no cattle and we wish her ranting would stop.”

Nathan's Famous Acquired by Chinese Owned Smithfield But Contest Will Go On

 

When we celebrate the 4th of July
One food at the family is as American as Apple Pie
It’s the hot dog on a bun with condiments like mustard, chopped onions or relish
But at Coney Island on the 4th an annual contest to see how many hot dogs contestants can demolish
When it comes to dominating an eating contest when it’s hot dogs there is only one king
Joey Chestnut who has won the contest 17 times showing how many hotdogs to his stomach attendants must bring
The holder of the world’s record for hot dogs at 76 in ten minutes consumed
Causing spectators to wonder how any human being’s stomach would have that much room
The Chinese with their massive trade surplus balances
Are always on the hunt to their holdings of American food producing properties advance
Nathan’s Famous was recently acquired by Smithfield owned by the Chinese
Who plan to continue Nathan’s Famous hot dog eating contest not branching into Won Tons to their owners displease

Uvalde Officier Who Stood Aside and Created a Perimeter Found Not Guilty by Jury After 9 Hours

 

After the Uvalde school shooting in Texas that left 19 elementary school children and 2 adults dead
A police officer who waited at the school door while shots were heard inside faced a moment of dread
To charge into the building gun blazing or face an arrest for child endangerment for the wounded of dead
Or face charges for unnecessary use of force and create a perimeter instead
In a moment of multiple gunfire shots he chose the latter
And his career as a police officer was tatters
The jury spent reviewing the charges of child endangerment came with a verdict in 9 hours|
Acquitted on all charges and set free which the parents must have felt soured
Don’t know if he was trained to go to the sound of guns until the shooter as a threat was done
Hard to send a cop into a gunfight knowing his use of force the mayor and police chief might shun
The charges and the verdict prove cops when they draw their gun are on a tight rope
The decision to fire made in seconds puts them on a very slippery slope

Behar's Legacy Will Not Be Ousting Trump But Having Harris on the View Where Lost the Election By Declaring No Differences Between Her and Biden

 

Joy Behar, co-host of The View, who is 83
Is running out of time to achieve her legacy
Delusionary to her leftist ideas she thinks she can oust Trump
Either by use of the 25th  or impeachment to from the oval offices to dump
This biased has been leftist had a legacy chance with Biden and blew it
Anyone hearing his speech or watching his movements knew from the race he should resign or quit
His resigning would have given the Word Salad Queen
Instead of being chained to Biden could have revealed distance between
Biden, but for Jill and her love of Air Force One,
Could have retired on his Delaware Beach exaggerating in his memoirs what he had done
Resigning or better yet keeping his promise to serve only one term
Would have meant an open primary for voters to learn
Harris was DEI VP for Rep. Clyburn’s support of Biden who was on a losing track
And was not able or ready to in the Oval Office giving Blues a chance pick a candidate who Trump might shellack
Instead he ran and muddled though the first debate and only withdrew
After donors wisely told him the getting more money from them he was through
The Word Salad Queen was coronated to run and lost the election on The View
No primary debates with other Blues and her pick of Walz revealed on how to win she was without a clue
Joy’s legacy will she chose Harris to on The View appear
When Harris answered no difference between her and Biden her election chances disappeared
Joy Behar has achieved a legacy of over half of America who voted Trump despise her name
Said to see someone who started in the corporate mail room to climb the Hollywood ladder to cohost The View go down in flames

Anti-ICE Protesters Attack Worship Services Because Pastor Supported Immigration Laws

 

Anti-ICE protesters are becoming out of control
Anyone who supports immigration law risks life and limb being steamrolled
No matter the location--a night on the town, on a campus or in church to worship
One cannot escape anti-immigration laws protesters deadly grip
Anti-immigration law protesters have all tolerance to enforce immigration law lost
While ignoring illegals’ rapes, murders, violent crimes and welfare and healthcare costs
Lawful immigrants are welcome here with open arms
Illegal aliens who fail to assimilate and bring violent harm
Need to be deported which ICE and CBP are fighting protesters to do
Risking their lives to make us safes which if abolished our loss of safety we will forever rue

Walz Under Investigation for Fraud in Dederal Funds Disbursements in Minnesota

 

Tampon Tim fighting the fraud  and abuse albatross
Is now facing the Insurrection Act and his freedom loss
Governor Walz has lost his mind threatening to call out the Minnesota National Guard
Not to respond to floods, fires, blizzards and other natural disasters but to insure ICE in enforcing the law is barred
Members of the GOP are demanding that Walz’s calling out the National Guard violates the Insurrection Act
Since a state seeking to nullify federal law trumps state law and Walz ignores that simple fact
Already accused of being asleep at the switch
When the fraudulent disbursal of federal funds to fraudsters enriched
You would think Walz would be keeping a low profile as opposed to ICE defiled

Trump Threatening 10% Tariff On Denmark and European Nation Nations Opposing U.S. Greenland Acquisition

 

Trump needs to drop his plans to force Greenland to be purchased by the U.S. or become a state to acquire
imposing tariffs of 10% on Denmark and European nations  that deny U.S. obtaining Greenland may cause NATO as bulwark against Russian aggression to expire
Russia invaded Ukraine because it was not a member of NATO protected by Article 5
If all European NATO members, Canada and the U.S. responded the slaughter of Russian troops in WWII would be revived
If in desperation Russia used its nukes
To save from destruction its troops
The conflict would quickly escalate
And destruction of both sides, China and North Korea would be their fate
And a nuclear winter would affect the entire planet
With population reduced by starvation returning to the stone age all small bands of survivors would regret
To insure NATO continues as a deterrent and the nukes fettered remain
Make Greenland a member of NATO or enter treaties that provide that Article 5 for Greenland reigns

IOC Refuses To Ban 2028 Olympics in L.A.

 

The U.S. Olympic Committee was breathing a sigh of relief
The IOC was being asked to ban the 2028 Olympics in L.A. that would have caused us a world of grief|
The IOC refused the request keeping politics from interfering with sports
The ban would have been a financial disaster to L.A. if the 2068 Summer Olympics were subject to abort
Good chance a few countries in protest may the Summer Olympics Boycott
But given Maduro’s record of smuggling drugs it should be a minor onslaught
Too dollars in construction for the host city to put at risk
The IOC could levy sanctions if a large number of boycotters exist
It is tragic that politics have corrupted sports
Newscasters have strayed from results when they report

Shades of Rocky Mountain Hig; 4 Rocky Mountain States Awash In Illegal Drugs From Mexican Cartels

 

John Denver wrote and sang Rocky Mountain High in 1972 to reach number 9 on Billboard’s Hot One Hundred and was viewed as by drug use encumbered
Denver responded extolling the beauty and the pristine mountains’ destruction
Caused by all manner of high priced construction
The FCC briefly ruled that the song was promoting drug abuse and banned the song
The 7th stanza “Friends around the campfire, everybody’s high” soon did not belong Denver died in 1997 when his ultralight aircraft ran out of fuel fell out of the sky
The 7th Stanza now should be changed to “Friends around the campfire getting high to soon die
In Colorado, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming—the DEA seized approximately 8.7 million fentanyl pills and over 3,000 pounds of methamphetamine in 2025
Probably enough to leave very few in the Mountain States alive
The drugs in a flood are flooding into the Mountain States by drug cartels
The vans, trucks and cars smuggling the drugs should be treated like narco boats and sent to Hell
Mexico will not lift a finger stop the illegal drug flow
We must prevent dollars to into the U.S. go

Leaving Pinecrest Ridge as Result Of Insurance and Medicare Budget

 

Appreciation Poem for Staff At Pelican Ridge

The New Year’s celebrations have come to an end
Along with resolutions that our behavior to the trash can we send
But at Pelican Ridge the staff does not adhere to that trend
Outstanding patient care from meds, rehab, cuisine, diaper changes, to room cleaning never end
Too many staff to accolades to disburse
From the CMA’s to the long hours of supervision by the nurses
Sadly, given Medicare and insurance budgets a patient’s stay here is cut short
Despite Pelican Ridge’s best efforts too soon a patient’s stay is subject to abort
Never a complaint or at the patient pointing a finger of blame
When a patient when being moved suffers pain
A patient quickly hears “I’m so sorry” refrain
This poet has gratitude beyond belief
And leaves here thanking all the staff and in departing feels a lot of grief
I wish all the staff well and to proceed to advance their careers
It has been a real pleasure being here!

when Will Putin Run Out of Troops Willing to Die In Ukraine?

 

Before making a frontal charge the Soviets would large amounts of vodka guzzle
Yell “Hurrah!” then be slaughtered by massed German machine gun muzzles
Repeat the charges again and again with more Soviet corpses on the ground
In numbers that even to the Germans manning their Spandau’s would astound
Not Having gained any ground and  having lost too many troops to another frontal charge mount
But for certain the dead lying on the ground were too numerous to count
In Afghanistan the Soviet’s ill-fated invasion of that nation lasted a little over 10 years
While some 20,000 dead Soviets in cemeteries appeared
Too many Stingers causing dead and caused the Soviets to withdraw
Invading a  nation that fought invaders to the last man and killing some 2 million civilians was a fatal flaw
During the war, Putin was a Lieutenant Colonel in the KGB
Serving far from the battlefields in Dresden, East Germany
Explains why for four years he is not willing despite some 20,000 Russians a  month killed, ready to quit
And will his declining number of troops to Ukraine battlefield commit
Until Russian draftees ape those in the U.S. to Canada choosing to flee
Putin at the table negotiating an end to the and U.S. sanctions we will see
He needs to relearn history that bombs, V-1’s and V-2, did not bring England to its knees
Nor Germany that endured 1000 plane bombings day and night
Despite their cities reduced to ruin the German military did give up its fight

Clintons Facing Contempt of Congress While Monica Moves On

 

The Clintons subject to a valid subpoena before an House Oversight Committee refused to appear
He faces a fine of not more than $100,000 and imprisonment for up to one year|
Blues when it comes to Trump have “chanted no one is above the law”
But if a Blue official denies a subpoena the sounds of silence show their chants are flawed
The Clintons were subpoenaed for their roles in the Epstein sexual scandal
A coverup of which the MSM will have a hard time to handle
At the same time Monica Lewinsky while admitting her part in the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal
Blasted Clinton for his abuse of power that left her life in shambles
Driving her into isolation with thoughts of suicide
After seven years the suicidal thoughts would finally subside|
She’s moving on as an activist, speaker and producer and becoming part of Hollywood’s elite
While Bill is becoming in another scandal to his legacy defeat
Full circle again as Clinton’s possible sexual misdeeds this time with Epstein and his Lolita Express Where female minors did more than just undress|
nd Clinton’s sexual escapades moved to the White House
And involved probably more than Lewinsky removing her blouse
Doubt if voters were polled whether they wanted in the White House a pervert as the First Man
Which was another reason why HRC’s expected coronation was tossed into the trash can

Soros Major Threat to Condservatives

 

Philadelphia for many years had the “City of Brotherly” name
But in recent years the name was lost with neighborhoods of violent crime to blame
Certain areas were unsafe in the day and night, experiencing poverty and white flight
Violent crime is enhanced by the selections of George Soros a noted philanthropist
|Who contributes moneys to causes and candidates to leftists who conservatists resist|
In Philadelphia Blue D.A. Larry Krasner is attacked for being soft on crime,
A charge levied against Krasner any many Soros funded candidates too many times|
Soros, with his inexhaustible funds for liberal candidates, is to conservatives opponents a major threat
No matter how many volunteers, contributors or strength of platform, Soros’s donations may his advantages offset

Cuba Digs in Its Heels 'Despite No Oil

 

A nation without energy is doomed to see its economy collapse

Will soon see its residents rummaging for food scraps

Cuba’s oil was obtained from Venezuela and Trump has turned that spigot off

To zero oil reserves will soon fall off

Cuba will see find itself in the oil stone age

How long before Cubans erupt against the Communist government in rage

Doubt if Iran or Russia will be able or willing to come to Cuba’s aid

Low Cost ALDI Expanding Number of Stores 2 3200 by 2028

 

Grocery prices are moving up to 3 year highs, creating an opportunity for grocers selling low cost groceries
With aisles and shelves filled with low cost groceries shoppers filling their carts have  less miseries
ALDI where everything shoppers can buy for less
Shoppers are feeling less high food costs stress
The low cost food chain is opening 180 new stores
To bring its total to 2800 by the end 2026 and by 2028 open 400 more
To reduce costs, higher cost brands the shelves are rarely found
But low cost private labels abound
To reduce costs shoppers pay a refundable cart fee of 25 cents
That reduces the number of employees to retrieve are to the parking lot are sent
Ralph’s, Vons and Safeway must be in a world of worry
As to compete with an expanding ALDI, they need to reduce their prices in a hurry

WUML Allowed Post of Alumni to Kiill Vance

 

The chasm largely created by the left grows deeper, wider and more violent
As hanslopez.bsky.social posted on Bluesky that an assassin to kill Vance be sent
The sender was a host of  radio station WUML funded by UMass
And his post should render all Americans aghast
UMass must not teach that tolerance in arguments must rule
For the poster was evidently an alumni of the school
The Secret Service ruled that there was no immediate threat
|But the FCC which regulates TV and radio broadcasts has not weighed in yet
The leftists in this nation must learn that calling for assassination is not protected free speech
Something schools of  higher learned have forgotten or have chosen not to teach

Protesters Protest Any Cause Linked to Anti-Trump

 

Agitators occupying our streets demanding Palestine be free, dissolving ICE, releasing Maduro and not overthrowing Khomeini have one common trait

If Trump and his minions oppose their position they take to the streets to him and his minions berate

With a women shot and killed and allegations of ICE jailing citizens and green cards Americans can give some support to their anti-ICE demands

Not all illegals are violent felons but enough are in cities that are sanctuaries

That residents feel unsafe surrounded by violent adversaries

Residents for their safety must either be packing if they venture outside to wine and dine

Or remain behind locked doors in their homes confined

ICE agents must be better trained in the laws on when deadly force they can use

And who they can arrest and when they cross the line and the rights of protesters they abuse

But opposing changing a regime that vows our destruction and has vast quantities of blood on their hands

Solely to oppose Trump blows one’s mind

Raises serious questions as to whether as to reality they are totally blind

Terrible choices residents would have to make

If Congress defunds ICE which would be a disastrous mistake

U.S. Seizes Russian Flagged With Russian Naval Ships Heading Toward It

 

A Déjà vu moment harking back to Cuban Missile Crisis  when Russian ships carrying Russian IRBM’s were headed to Cuba and turned around
On January a reflagged oil tanker as Russian was to Russia bound
Was seized and boarded by U.S.’s seals
So far we have not heard the Russian Bear squeal
Trump is rolling the dice if a Russian flagged oil tanker heads for Cuba escorted by Russian naval ships|
Russia and the U.S. will be entering the path of brinkmanship
And the first steps toward the beginning of World War III
A disaster the world would never want to see
Whereas Putin is blessed with no opposition or dissent
Trump will hobbled by unified Congressional Blues whose opposition they will not relent
Another reason that Russia’s War with Ukraine must come to an end
While raging too many civilians dying and too many chances for escalation of the war to send

California's Proposed Wealth Tax Will Kill the Golden Goose

 In California Aesop’s Golden Goose fable

May come true if 5% of Billionaire’s wealth is confiscable

California’s Service Employees International Union–United Health Workers West Is proposing a proposition

To levy a tax of 5% on wealth of billionaires to replace federal funds subject to abolition
Billionaires have opened their wallets to the proposition defeat|
And Billionaires are already moving to friendlier tax states to some trillion dollars of wealth deplete|
Billionaires leaving the state will be having numerous taxpayers join the exodus
To cause an exodus of high taxpayers along with their entrepreneurial spirit representing a lack of intelligence
Worse if the proposition passes and billionaires flee along with a reduction of tax revenue
The legislature will try to restore the shortfall on the middle class or lower threshold on the wealth tax to millions to see more high incomes adding to the exodus queue
The proposition idea is so bad that even Newsom against it rails
Billionaires, millionaires and middle class taxpayers hope it fails

Crowd on Demand Founder Attacks ICE Protesters As Crossing the Line

 

Finally some sanity shows some sanity in the anti-ICE protests national wave
As a female protester called by Trump a domestic terrorist went to an early grave
Adam Swarts of Crowd on Demand called out the Minneapolis protesters as creating chaos in crossing the line
His company on assignments in Minneapolis would quickly decline
Due blocked roadways, obstruction of federal agents, and threats against authorities following a fatal shooting during an ICE enforcement operation
Preventing authorities from entering or leaving a protest exposes them to mob action and merits only condemnation
Sadly Swarts’ call is drowned out by the rising cries to of committing violence against ICE agents
Which will endanger the lives of genuine peaceful protests and result in demands for more ICE enforcement

Luis David Nico Moncada, left, and Yorlenys Betzabeth Zambrano-Contreras,  Venezuelan criminal illegal aliens and suspected members of the foreign terrorist gang Tren de Aragua were shot they as tried to run over a CBP agent

Who fearing for his life in self-defense drew his revolver and wounded both to his bodily harm or death prevent

Portland’s Chief of Police Day at his initial news conference refused to call the two wounded in their car terrorists

Only as the facts quickly came out he could no longer calling them migrants here illegally and suspected gang members resist

In instead of praising the agent who wounded but did not kill

He broke into tears that unreasonable force was not used to post the normal illegal use of force bill

So typical of the left to publish the facts

Of CBP, ICE, and Police force not used in excess attacks

Fraud in Federal Funding Grows into the Billions Yet Walz Refuses to Resign

 

The fraud in Minnesota is like playing a game of Whack-A-Mo
Every time you smash an outlet of fraud one sees another fraudster raking in fraudulent dough
Those officials charged with accountability from Walz to those who are entry level
Must be taking bribes, abandoning their posts or asleep at switch while fraudster are being enriched after selling their honesty to the fraud devil
It is too easy to point at Somalis the finger of blame
Who seem to be in the leaders in the fraud and abuse game
But fraud is easier when accountability over spending exists
But runs rampant when program officers rely on trust only and accountability resist
Walz should resign but won’t only ending his third party run
Rep. Omar, a Somali who is tainted by the growing fraud may see voters her shun
The USDA has reached the boiling and is cutting off any more aid  to fraudsters receipt of money
Until the fraud is curtailed, it refuses to allow taxpayers to be treated as dummies open checkbook dummies
A first step is for Coach Walz waving his arms like a scrare crow in the wind
To sign a resignation to his remaining time in office immediately rescind
The next step would be investigate to see if his asleep at  the switch is a criminal act
That would put him if convicted on the off to prison track
Fraud in government if office leaders in cases of fraud of underlings will never be curtailed
Until fraudsters and their leaders like Walz are jailed
So lawful recipients can receive aid from programs they need
And fraudsters and their leaders will think twice before receipt of funds they impede

The City of Roses Is Now Like the City of Corpse Flowers With Leftist Rioters Protesters Rioting Each Night

 

The City of Portland before leftists and illegal aliens took over was known as the City of Roses
Now due to its stench better known as the City of Corpse flowers so odorous to the human nose
But attracts insect pests to pollinate with a foul odor that does never abate
Portland with its sanctuary city status, violent illegal alien gangs like Tren de Aragua  and leftist mayor imitates the Corpse Flower and is in a riotous state
Hardly a night goes by without protesters attacking ICE agents
Resulting in the odor of tear gas into neighborhoods being sent
Peaceful protests protected by the First
Have degenerated into violent outbursts
A pair of illegal members of Tren de Aragua used their car to try to run over agents and were shot in self-defense
Not fatal but the two leftists argued the agents had no such rights and lacking any penitence
Our immigration laws Blues and leftists are being flushed down the drain
And those seeking to inflict bodily harm on the agents are insane

Khomeini Must Be Desperate Hiring 850 Terrorists as Protests Erupt in 200 Iranian Cities

 

As Iran’s economy sinks deeper in the tank and chaos
And quelling protests against the mullahs in 200 cities the mullahs are at loss
Fearing their security forces would not their fellow Iranians gun down to quell the disorder
Some 850 Hezbollah, Iraqi militia and Quds Force-linked forces have crossed the border
To attack Iranians protesting whom Khomeini has called paid mercenaries
Hoping they will kill Iranians the regime views as adversaries
Our experts at the State Department and  U.S. Military need to walk a tightrope|
Being viewed as an aider of the protestors, not invaders on a slippery slope
f the protestors are able to destroy foreign fighters and the jihadist mullahs oust|
Sanctions could be lifted in exchange for Iran’s goal to destroy the Great Satin and Israel, fund terrorists and destroy its nuclear weapons program be doused

But since they vote overwhelmingly for Blues they have an excuse
Blues mouth they are opposed to fraud and abuse taking taxpayers’ money
But their inaction against fraud and abuse means that anyone who believes their claims is a complete dummy

ICE Agent Run Over by a "Protestor in a Car But Survived to Shoot Her In the Head and at the Hospital Died

 

The violence directed toward ICE is escalating and spiraling into deadly violence
In Minnesota a woman trying to block ICE agents trying to arrest illegals shed her peaceful pretense
She ran her car over an agent who amazingly survived
To shoot her in self-defense and who at the hospital could not be revived
The reaction by Blues and leftists around the nation dismissed the ICE claim of self-defense
Howling that it’s time to point the finger of blame against whites and go on the offense
Governor Walz reeling under massive fraud charges and facing growing demands to resign
Put the Minnesota National Guard on alert showing he still has a functioning mind What should be frighting is that the protesting groups organized so shortly after the event
Creating warnings that violent outburst will occur and property destruction and maybe deaths will be  hard to prevent

Lakeview Hilton Banned ICE agents so GSA Banned Federal Immigration Agents From Staying There

 

The Lakeview Hilton was refusing to accept ICE or immigration  personal

Even though agents had reservations and the hotel had rooms to sell

The response by the GSA was to ban agents from at this Hilton stay

Not sure how much will be directed to stay away

But if you ban access to this Hilton the ban should be expanded by the GSA

No federal employee at this Hilton should not allowed to stay

Unfortunately the Civil Rights Act of 1964 does not cover employment

So cutting off sales is the only punishment

But thumbing one’s nose at the feds to support illegal immigrants

Is a poor business decision that will lead to red ink

And  should cause the hotels to their acts rethink

Trump will have his time full dealing with Venezuela and must not get involve with taking Greenland

 

Any thoughts we might have held that removal of Maduro would be accept by all Venezuelans were soon dashed
They faced the colectivos on motorbikes armed with guns hunting down Venezuelans who supported Maduros snatching as balderdash
The colectivos are largely controlled by Nicolás Maduro’s close ally, Diosdado Cabello, who has a $25 million bounty on his head
Any pretense of civility and not abusing human rights he has long time ago shed
Like Maduro he is deeply involved in corruption and trafficking of drugs
Without any doubt he is a very violet thug
But he serves as the state's Minister of Interior, Justice and Peace
Doubtful like a leopard who doesn’t change his spots his corrupt behavior will cease From the Vice
President on down the office holders are Maduro supporters
And in terms of Trump’s agenda complete and utter dedicated thwarters
Blues may howl up yet another breach of international storm
But officers who support Maduro who will be obstruction thorns|
Trump must continue to be tied up with Venezuela or he will make a big mistake
If from  a fellow NATO member Denmark Greenland he takes
Dominoes that would see Germany devour Poland and Sweden devour Finland
Leading to the dissolution, an alliance that was able to since 1949 Russian aggression in Europe withstand

Another Blue Official Charged with Theft of COVID Funds

 The COVID-19 pandemic, was a disaster for Americans as thousands died
Isolated with family allowed to view through glass but a last hug or kiss denied
But for dishonest politicians it become a golden goose
Millions of dollars flowed in bogus payments into politicians’ pockets in a stream of fraud and abuses
Biden’s minions couldn’t care less as the money meant votes
And with a Blues in control of Congress and a politized FBI the chances of investigation were remote
With Biden spending more time on a Delaware beach asleep at the switch
Too many politicians used the opportunity to their wealth enrich
There is a new sheriff in ferreting out fraud and abuse to put political abusers in jail
No matter how small or huge the FBI will be on an abusers’ trail
A 12 year Blue member of the Georgia House has been targeted by the DOJ
As an office holder, she could not keep the FBI investigators  at bay
Karen Barret will be charged with theft some $14,000 of COVID-19 funds
If convicted fines, possible prison time and money stolen refund
Stopping officer holders and officers is like playing Whack-A Mo
Arrest for theft of government funds and they find another funding to go|
Stopping officials’ fraud and abuse will be a difficult task
But must be done if any faith in or government has any chance to last

When Maduro and his wife were snatched to before American Justice to appear
Venezuelans were dancing in the streets expressing joy without repression fears
Blues, MSM  and leftist social media were claiming illegality and howling they weren’t informed of the snatch
That was a first step toward an if convicted life in prison path
Hard to believe a man whose policies caused almost 8 million to flee
Had supporters demand this indicted felon be turned to his native country
Most likely Cuban security forces and bodyguards were fomenting the protests
So soon the nation may be facing its first stable government test
The VP if she wants U.S. support
Should all Cubans hired by Maduro deport
We cannot allow the conditions in Venezuela ape the civil war in Iraq
Where U.S. forces became involve and were under constant attack

Thank God For Nurses To Patient Care

 

What would the world of medicine be when the only the M.D. Gods ruled
Where penmanship and bedside manner were not taught in Med School
And the poor patients questioning treatment were dismissed as fools
And expressing empathy of a patient racked by pain or loosing body parts or function was deemed as uncool
Where billing codes were so complex and determined if the M.D. was paid
Hit with paper blizzards in a never ending paper parade
Would render medicine a Kafka like castle with too many locked doors before one unlocked a patient could find
While M.D.’s are too often maligned
Nurses from Florence Nightingale are the nuggets of care found in a gold mine
Instead of lumps of iron pyrite a smart patient will decline
M.D.’s may prescribe drugs and treatment
But the nurse insures the shots to the right place went
And like a medical ULTRA deciphers the M.D.’s handwriting code
To pick the right drugs to administer so the patient can soon return to his or her abode
While writing a poem to post on my blog I struck up a conversation with a treatment nurse Michelle
A second generation nurse-her skills take too many pages to tell
Kudos to Michelle the noted nurse
Freed us from the M.D. are God’s curse

Venezuela's VP Is in Russia Thwarting Trump's Goal not Having Foreign Enemies Controlling Southern Hemisphere Nations?

 

Maduro ignored the results of the elections in 2018 and 2024
And many nations didn’t recognize him as president and want results of free elections restored
The Vice President Delcy Rodriguez was appointed Vice President in 2021
And must have been on the ticket in Maduro’s 2024 illegal election run
Now in Russia demanding Maduro be to Venezuela returned
To assume the office of the President to Trump’s plan to rule Venezuela on an interim basis spurn
The Venezuelan Supreme Court, which is a Maduro mouthpiece,|
Under Maduro had its independence for a long time deceased
Has declared that Maduro is no longer President and Rodriguez his office has assumed
For Trump’s goal of not having in the Southern Hemisphere dictators aligned with enemy foreign powers may be facing the first shadows of doom
Our vaunted intel in knowing where to Maduro before snatching locate
Needs to know why Rodriguez was in Russia—Seeking asylum or if Cubans were sent packing what aid they could put on her plate
The goal of an independent Venezuela will go down the drain
If she is in bed with the Russians or if Maduro’s Cuban body guard, military intel and advisors remain
The National Assembly fought Maduro tooth and nail until the Supreme Court stripped it of its powers
Trump should restore the National Assembly who any Maduro survivors will devour
Along with the Maduro rubber stamp pro Maduro Supreme Court
Who without fail ruled in favor of Maduro and sought to democracy abort

The World Cheers the U.S. Snatching of the Madero's While Here the Blues Blinded By TDS Stage Condemn the Act

 

Almost to a person the left in the U.S. have condemned the snatching of the Maduros without pause
Oblivious to the fact that TDS Stage 4 has created so much bias that their condemnation is flawed
Around the world people are cheering due to Maduro’s corruption and economy destruction
And the democratic process ignored by Maduro’s ruthless obstruction
Venezuelans wrapped in flags are cheering in the streets that Maduros have been snatched
And are in jail awaiting trial on charges that will send them on a lifetime in prison path
Many celebrants fled the country and still had family there spreading their tales of woe
You have to wonder why leftists who probably had no firsthand knowledge of the suffering inflicted by Maduro on the residents
Who had no praise but allowed TDS Stage 4 to their Trump condemnation vent
In a dangerous world where the threat or use of military needed when diplomacy fails
The Blues want to tie one hand behind his back so his efforts to comfort our foes can’t prevail

Snatching of Maduros May be the Torch to Light and Sweep Away Dictatators

 

After the U.S. landing in Venezuela to the Maduro’s snatch
Dictators around the world are lining up asylum places to avoid to federal jail being dispatched
And their suffering residents hoping for U.S. aid are taking to the streets
While the White House is planning how to remove them from their seats
The snatching of Maduros may have lit a torch that will cause residents to rise up to their dictators defeat
Their armed forces may find it difficult to gun down their fellow citizens with flowers in their hands to greet
You can hear the signs of desperation in Iran when Khomeini on a tirade
Calling Iranian protestors  mercenaries being paid
To light the torch taking over Venezuela must be more successful than our efforts in Iraq
Not a heavy hand but a determined push to keep the nation on a return to self- governing track

Maduro's Delusionary World That the U.S. Would Never Repeat Noriega's Arrest Met Reality As Special Forces Snatched Him and His Wife

 

Maduro wins the prize for forgetting Noriega’s lessons in history
Why as U.S. was adding to its military assets near Venezuela he did flee to seek asylum in Cuba, Russia or China is a complete mystery
He must have assumed Trump would follow Biden’s refusal to act
And therefore assumed Trump would never attack
Instead this indicted drug trafficking outlaw
Started to arrest Americans on false charges that broke the final straw
Today at his press conference Trump informed us U.S. forces were on hold due to adverse weather
|When the weather cleared, the storms were replaced with over whelming forces released from the meteorological tether
Doubt if Maduro realized the delay was caused by a weather hold
And had meteorologists to warn him that Venezuela would have calm weather to behold
What meager air defense systems the Venezuelans had were quickly destroyed
And the skies were soon fill of troop carrying choppers deployed
Special forces quickly found Maduro and his wife in their rabbit hole
Cuffing them into a helicopter and back blindfolded onto the U.S. Iwo Jima bloodlessly achieving their goal|
With the two accused felons heading back to the U.S. facing if convicted sentences they should fear
Sentences of life imprisonment to 30 years
The DOJ unsealed indictments of Maduro, wife and sons listing additional crimes
While Venezuelans were dancing in the streets, the Cack News Network in almost no time
Had an international law expert hack
Rant that the U.S. violated international law in the attack
So typical for them to not heap on Trump and the U.S. military praise
But questions on the legality of snatching the two alleged felons raise
No wonder viewers have fled CNN
No objectivity only on the airways they send

Swalwell Trying to Expand the Chasm Between Reds and Blues Vow To Revoke ICE Agent's Driver's License If They Wear Masks

 

Eric Swalwell will have to step down from his House Seat
To join the race for Democratic governor where he faces certain primary defeat
To improve his chances for a very unlikely win he goes on a talk show
Touting that if ICE agents wear masks he will revoke their driver’s licenses to deliver ICE a death blow|
In this misguided effort of boastful rhetoric he will fail
ICE agents have a legitimate need for masks to protect them and their families so federal law will prevail
Having Swalwell lose in the primary to fade away from the political scene
Will be the greatest gift to Californians seeking compromise they for many years have scene
The House needs to open an investigation on Swalwell’s association with Fang Fang, a well-known Chinese spy
Which all manner of common sense and security protections, Swalwell defied

Mondani Is Hell Bent on Eliminating Jews' Presence in New Mogadishu By Revoking Mayor Adams' Antisemitism Orders

 

NYC’s Muslim Socialist Mayor is hell bent on turning NYC into New Mogadishu
Revoked Mayor Adam’s orders on antisemitism to insure Jews in New Mogadishu are only a scant few
Probably wanted to ban all Jews but he knew the courts would ban his act
But eliminating antisemitism would quickly put Jews on an Exodus track
Soon Mondani will be seeking his war on private ownership
Of land, residences and businesses to lessen capitalists’ grip
Residents of the Big Apple will soon find
That as to Mondani’s of aping Stalin’s economic model they were blind
Fortunately New Mogadishu’s City Council will refuse to pass most if not all of Mondani’s programs
And will have no friends in the White House but rather those who will his funding requests to the most strenuous exams

California's Proposed Annual 5% Wealth Tax on Billionaires

 

Trump has alleged the fraud in Minnesota is a mere drop compared to the fraud and pork
That hardly moves the scale compared to California, Illinois and New York
With California headed toward an annual wealth tax of 5 percent
Phil Mickelson, a pro golfer wants a hold on the idea until we have accountability on where the money was spent
It seems Blue politicians not only spend taxpayer money like a sailor on a drunken spree
They avoid tracking where the money went and how it was sent while shedding any accountability
Phil Mickelson’s idea is a great one as it will kill the Silicon Valley Golden Goose
Entrepreneurs and venture capitalists will move out of the state and tax revenues will be reduced
Along with high tech employment and innovations in services and products such as electronics, drugs and AI
Upon which our daily life, comfort, prosperity, security and health rely
The Blue Reps and Newsom are oblivious that we are in high-tech with the Chinese
Who are hell bent to dominance in warfare, high-tech, and diplomacy achieve
Causing our high-tech venture capitalists and entrepreneurs to from California flee
Is like a fighter with one hand tied behind his back causing the Chinese to jump with glee

Protests Against the Mullahs As Iran's Economy And Protestors Are Being Shot

 

The Mullah’s of Iran must be wringing their hands and moaning to Allah as Iran’s currency has collapsed in the tank
Inflation is soaring through the roof and protestors are in the streets demanding leaders resign or walk the plank
Throughout Iran protestors are in the streets in great waves
Even as the regime has resorted to sending protestors to early graves
The mullahs have squandered Iran’s oil revenue not for its people but to finance Hamas and Hezbollah
And its nuclear weapons program bombed by the U.S. and labelled and international out law
The U.S. is walking the tightrope of supporting the protestors but not seen as inserting a new regime
While protestors in replacing the mullahs would be fulfilment of a long sought dream

Rose Parade Even Rained Upon Was Awesome and College Games Seeking to Crown a National Champion Nailed Us to the TV Sets

 

With celebrants on New Year’s Eve drinking in excess to welcome of the New Year
Wise drivers seeking to avoid DUI’s or crashing their car take Uber to enjoy consuming holiday cheer
But the roads and streets are populated with drivers you can’t control
Explains why New Year’s Eve sees such a deadly toll
Assuming you dodge disaster driving or being driven to a bar to celebrate
You are usually not aware of the dangers that may await
At the Le Constellation bar in Crans-Montana, Switzerland a fire broke out
Spreading quickly in the packed barn, the terrified celebrants were unable to bug-out
At least 40 persons died and some 114 were injured some in critical condition
Challenging the skills keeping the injured patrons alive by the admitting and treating physicians
Maybe the smart move to survive the first day of 26 and the last day of 26
Would be to stay at home or walk to a neighbor’s place, to eat their holiday snacks and quaff their holiday mixes
