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

Most Venezuelans Are Dancing in the Streets with Joy Over Maduro's Snatching

 

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
