Ridley’s Believe It Or Not For April 4, 2019 The
number of women complaining about Biden’s inappropriate touching has risen to
7; on the Congressional front, Nadler, who is about as partisan as a poisonous
adler is a pathetic hypocrite with his subpoenas on the Mueller Report when he
fought tooth and nail against Starr for secrecy to prevail (hate to attack ad
hominem but this biased little hack merits the condemnation of Randy Newman in his
song “Short People” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bfyS-S-IJs;
the Chicago Police Union has voted no confidence against biased State’s
Attorney Kim Foxx; the House moving full speed ahead to
investigate not legislate has demanded from the IRS 6 years of Trump’s tax
returns, totally ignoring the need to legislate an end to the border crisis
prompted by the asylum scam; AOC despite all her bobbing and weaving seems to
be running into a web of ethical and FEC violations in her campaign while she
sanctimoniously rails against campaign spending abuse (when will the déjà vu of
McCarthyism rejection stop this idiot in her tracks?); Louis Farrakhan despite
all his anti-American and anti-Semitic hate rants still has a Twitter non
banned account is on the rant parade demanding a separate state for blacks and
insinuating he is Jesus (what an absolute idiot but the poster child of bias in
social media of allowing radical hateful left yet banning conservative thought);
Jeff and McKenzie Bezos have come to an amicable divorce settlement; Tim Ryan,
a rare and perhaps endangered Blue centrist who had the audacity to challenge
Nancy Pelosi has thrown his hat into the ring to run for president; a judge in
New Jersey who displayed total ignorance and lack of empathy to a rape victim seeking
a restraining order against an attempted rapist by advising her to close her
legs has been suspended without pay for three months; in a glaring example of
why we have a flood of illegals lured by the promise of higher wages and lifestyle
and why we must have e-verify and a logical guest worker program, ICE agents raided
the offices of cell phone repair company CVE in Texas and arrested 280 illegals
working there (hopefully they will be quickly deported and the company will be
fined big time); Australia has moved to criminalize the failure of social media
to remove violent content like the mosque shootings in New Zealand from the
internet; as of April 3, 2019 452 people have been shot in Chicago of whom 82
have died (what makes the Smollett case so frustrating is that it forced the
city of Chicago to allocate scarce detective resources when in only 9% of the
shootings resulting in murder have a suspect being charged this year).
As always,
I hope you enjoy today’s holidays and observances, a music link to the
Bee Gees, factoids of interest for this day in history, the fact that you are
the recipient of an act of a palpetbraton; and a relevant quote from Martin Jacques on NATO,
secure in the knowledge that if you want to find a gift for any memorable
events like college graduations, birthdays, weddings, or anniversaries,
you know that the Alaskanpoet can provide you with a unique customized
poem at a great price tailored to the event and the recipient. You
need only contact me for details.
1. 404 Day—created to protest the fact that a web server has been
contacted but failed to find the information requested or more likely which is why
there is a protest the information on the requested site is subject to
government or social media censorship. 404 is used since it represents the 4th
day of the 4th month.
2. Hug a
Newsperson Day—a holiday that should commemorate a vigorous
free, objective press by expressing appreciation when unfortunately the reality
is that we have a MSM obsessed with advocacy and anti-Trump bias.
3. 1978
Number One Song—the number one song on this day in 1978 on a run of 8 weeks
in that position was “Night Fever” by the Bee Gees. Here is a recording of
the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ihs-vT9T3Q
4. Word of
the Day—today’s word of the day as we move
from words beginning with “o” to words beginning with “p” is “palpetbraton”
which means winking an act that all of us should enjoy when an attractive person
sends one our way.
5. Drugs on
the Liability Side of the Ledger—celebrating
the birthday on this day in 1979 of Australian born actor Heath Ledger who received
an Academy Award Nomination for Brobeck
Mountain but who at a way too young age of 28 died of an accidental drug
overdose on January 22, 2008.
On this day
in:
a. 1949 eleven nations signed the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization to create NATO which has expanded and is still growing strong and
with Trump’s urging is back on track to expanding member nation’s expenditures
on defense to deter Russia.
b. 1973 the Twin Towers began their 18 year reign
before being destroy on 9/11 at the World Trade Center by being inaugurated.
c. 1975 Microsoft was founded as a partnership between
Paul Allen and Bill Gates in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
d. 1984 President Ronald Reagan called for an
international ban on chemical weapons.
e. 2009 France came to its senses and returned to be part
of NATO.
Reflections on NATO: “Following the end of the Cold War, there
was much discussion concerning the point of NATO. In the event, it was
reinvented as a means of reducing Russia's reach on its western frontiers and
seeking to isolate it. Its former East European client states were admitted to
NATO, as were the Baltic states.” Martin Jacques, noted British author and
commentator.
