National Holiday: National Meth Awareness Day: Created by President George W. Bush on November 27, 2006 and observed since 2006 on November 30 each year to promote awareness of the dangers of meth addiction and the need for rehabilitation services to fight the addiction. Sadly, meth addicts are too readily visible by the damage to their teeth from smoking it and their inability to perform simple mental tasks like speaking in complete sentences. MRI scans of the brain of a meth addict showing the destruction of the brain should be shown to anyone contemplating  the use of the drug. Meth’s far deadlier cousin fentanyl thanks to Senators DiFi and Grassley will have its own awareness day May 10 which was created this year.
          Word of the Day: The word of the day is “ablepsia” which means blindness which probably describes a fair number of our politicians to the dangers of an open border and desires of hegemony of China.
          Number 1 Song of the Day: The number 1 song in 2017 was “Rock Star” by  Post Malone feat. 21 Savage on a run of 8 weeks  to share with 11 other songs reaching achieving number 1 status, 12 acts, including Post Malone and 21 Savage achieved their first number 1.  Here is a video recording of Post Malone feat. 21 Savage performing “Rock Star”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UceaB4D0jpo
          Famous Birthdays: Keven Conroy,  born on this day in 1955, who became a noted film and TV actor and voice actor best known for the voice of Bruce Wayne/Batman in animated films. Conroy was a homosexual who concealed it until coming out of the closet in a New York Times interview in which he detailed the discrimination and lost roles due to his homosexuality. Also fondly remembered by NYFD and NYPD personnel who responded to 9/11  his cooking meals for them and when the meals were ready calling out to them in his Batman voice, I am vengeance! I am the night! I am Batman!  Sadly he died of colorectal cancer on November 10 this year.
          Famous Events that occurred on November 30th
          1.       1982—Michael Jackson’s sixth album Thriller was released to become the most sold album with over 70 million copies sold worldwide.
          2.       1999—Exon and Mobil Oil sign a $77.7 billion agreement to merge creating the world’s largest company.
          3.       2001—Gary Ridgeway, a serial killer of women and teenage girls who terrified the Seattle and known as the “Green River Killer” during the 80’s and 90’s was arrested based on DNA evidence gathered from 4 victims killed some 20 years ago. The police were so desperate to catch the killer, they even interviewed Ted Bundy who advised them to look at the dump sites for the bodies which they did and discovered fresh graves. To escape the death sentence, he disclosed where he had killed 41 missing persons and he is now in prison serving life sentences without possibility of parole. In a “I had no idea how lucky I am moment”, Ridgeway’s third wife had no idea of his past murdering activities but being with her significantly reduced his need to kill and it is believed only 3 victims perished while he was married to her. He is now 73 years old rotting away a Walla Walla State Penitentiary.
          4.       2018—In a lesser intense repeat of the 1964 Anchorage Good Friday Earthquake Anchorage sufferer a  7.1 earthquake with an epicenter of only 24 kilometers away but resulted in significant damage but no deaths.
          5.       2021—15 year old Ethan Crumbley armed with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun Oxford High School in Oxford Township, Michigan and shot and killed 4 students and wounded 7 including a teacher. He was quickly arrested charged with murders to be tried as an adult but after pleading not guilty by reason of insanity he plead guilty on October 22 of this year. He is awaiting a hearing on what circumstances would justify a sentence of life without possibility of parole the prosecutors want. His parents after fleeing have be arrested for involuntary manslaughter for failing to secure Crumbley’s weapon and are awaiting trial which if results in conviction could mean up to 15 years in prison.
          Quote of the Day: Dirk Kempthorne, former Senator and Governor of Idaho and Secretary of Interior under George W. Bush: “Methamphetamine is a hideous drug. Meth makes a person paranoid, violent, and aggressive – making them a serious threat to society and law enforcement. And maybe, more importantly, meth users threaten their children and families.”

In Iran Protestors Cheer the Great Satan's Win in Qatar and in China Nationwide Protests Over COVID Lockdowns

 

Two tyrannical regimes are facing growing unrest in their streets
The icons of human rights abuses China and Iran will use force and not retreat
In China an inane zero tolerance policy for COVID
Separating families and locking down almost all, protestors are trying to rid
In Iran another killing of a young woman is jail who was nabbed
For the crime of not in public wearing a hijab
In an example in Iran the winds of protest cannot be shuttered
Iranians took to the streets again to the Great Satan’s soccer victory praise in Qatar
Both nations are ruled by total tyrants unwilling to let go of their power
The people till now have been forced to obey and cower
Soon there will be bloodshed in the streets
The tyrants will go to any lengths to the protestors defeat
World opinion aghast at protestors gunned down by the hundreds or thousands will not the tyrants move
They will ignore and dismiss as rants all world opinion that will their acts disapprove
Iran with its porous border might a place where U.S. arms could be smuggled in
Doubtful if enough could find their way into protestors hands to aid them to win
Only when enough citizens in either country die
And the common soldier becomes so disgusted on orders to shoot he will deny
Will regime change have a chance
In China look for a Taiwan invasion to solidifying the tyrants’ rule advance

On Giving Tuesday Ivanka Trump Is Giving by Working With Ripe for Revival handing Out Meals

 

On Giving Tuesday Ivanka Trump showed she is the real deal
Working with Ripe for Revival to be handing out in rural communities needed meals
Clearly not merely a photo op but a helping hand to those in need
Wonder how many political stars of the left the cries of the hungry heed
We have become so consumed with intolerant hate
We can’t cross the aisle to real issues try to abate
It would not come as a surprise
But in addition to time a safe bet is she adds dollars to hunger demise
If any youth in this country are not adequately fed
Before with empty stomachs they crawl into bed
Their bodies and brains will barely grow
A generation of physically and mentally challenged kids we will sow
With Biden’s killing inflation
All around the nation
Food banks are under increasing demand stress
From nutritionally challenged under mounting inflationary distress
Food banks even those in “wealthy” counties like Orange need donations of money and dollars
To free the less fortunate from malnutrition crippling for a lifetime collar

National Holiday: Giving Tuesday: Celebrated on the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving and created in 2012 by the Belfer Center for Innovation and Social Impact and the United Nations Foundation in response to the commercialization associated with Black Friday, Small Business Sunday and Cyber Monday to encourage people to donate time and/or money to their favorite charities to give meaning to the “giving” part of Thanksgiving.
          Word of the Day: The word of the day is “abiotrophy” which means the loss of physical vitality or ability which sadly is one of the least desirable consequences of getting older.
          Number 1 Song of the Day: The number 1 song in 2018 was “Thank You Next” by  Ariana Grande on a run of 6 weeks non continuous to share with 11 other acts recording number 1 hits, 9 of whom, including Ariana Grande and XXX Tentacion who became the 8th artist to achieve number 1 status posthumously after he was shot and killed in a robbery by three suspects now awaiting trial for murder,  achieved their first number 1 .  Here is a video recording of Ariana Grande performing “Thank U Next”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEhZAHZQyf4
          Famous Birthdays: Chadwick Aaron Boseman,  born on this day in 1976, who became a noted film and TV actor starring in historical movies as Jackie Robinson, James Brown, and Thurgood Marshall and the Black Panther in Marvel Entertainment films. Sadly he was diagnosed with colon cancer in 2016 but continued to work until he died at age 43 on August 28, 2020 but his last film Ma Rainey’s Black Bottoms released after his death garnered him a posthumous nomination for Best Actor Academy Award Nomination.
          Famous Events that occurred on November 29th
          1.       1781—After running almost out of water, the crew of the British slaver ship Zong originally loaded with 408 slaves started throwing slaves, including women and children overboard which ultimately rose to 142 and on arrival tried to collect insurance for the slaves who were drowned. No crew members were charged with murder, but the barbarity of the incident was instrumental in galvanizing the British government to in 1807 make the transportation of slaves to the New World illegal.
          2.       1877—Thomas Edison demonstrated the phonograph for the first time.
          3.       1947—The United Nations General Assembly approved a plan for the partition of Palestine.
          4.       1963—Beatles kicked off the beginning of Beatlemania with the release of “I Want to Hold Your Hand” in the United Kingdom.
          5.       1972—3 Atari released the first commercially successful video game Pong.
          Quote of the Day: Great Britain’s Solicitor General Justice John Lee on refusing to bring criminal charges against the captain, crew and owners of the Zong for killing 142 slaves by throwing them overboard in the Atlantic miles from any land: “What is this claim that human people have been thrown overboard? This is a case of chattels or goods. Blacks are goods and property; it is madness to accuse these well-serving honourable men of murder… The case is the same as if wood had been thrown overboard.” Shocks the conscience but jettisoning part of a ship’s cargo especially when one learns that a rainstorm sufficient to fill 6 casks with water occurred the day after the drownings.

After 12 Season and Setting the Record For Most Stanford Wins Coach David Shaw Resigned As Stanford's Football Coach

 

At Stanford a winning 12 year career
In the beginning taking over from Harbaugh opponents would fear
Shaw’s teams with their huge offensive lines
Speedy backs and large speedy tight ends to smash ball defined
But mobile passing QB’s evolved and opponents learned to ape
And from the Admission Dean’s barriers to entry he could not escape
A shortened season due to the onslaught of COVID
Then two losing seasons as Stanford football went into a downward skid
In 2021 upset wins over USC and Oregon that became Pickett’s highwater mark
High hopes so quickly dashed as the Cardinal on a 7 game losing streak embarked
Worse a slaughter at home by Cal in the Big Game
Nervous alums and fans wonder if Shaw could bounce back after a season that went down in flames
Not to be as in 2022 in 9 games the Cardinal went down in defeat
To be expected since Tanner led the PAC-12 in tacklers behind the line he would greet
2 3-9 seasons back to back
Looking forward to 2023 alums were becoming triskaidekaphobiacs
What may have been in the coaching coffin’s last nail
When in a 4th quarter Stanford rally against BYU, a  PAT snap to the holder failed
As he resigned after the BYU game, we should remember this about Coach Shaw
Though in years 10-12 his play calling may have seemed flawed
He set a Stanford record for wins which alums should extol
Resigned in a class act as the winner of  2 out of 3 Rose Bowls
Future coaching in the pros or in college we wish him well
If in the pros he will be freed of the need to recruit and prospects gaining admission having to sell

Hinojosa and Amandi Wanting Open Borders Rant on MSNBC There Is No Crisis at the Border

 

If Maria Hinojosa and Fernand Amandi had any brains only on radio would they appear
Where they could rant their false claim there is no crisis at the border for the left to hear
But idiotically they chose TV instead to appear on “The Mehdi Hasan Show”
Same claim but after seeing thousands of videos Americans its lie they know
Hinojosa and Amandi both went to college so can they so dumb to rant the no crisis at the border claim
With clear visual evidence of an illegal tide crossing their rant seems somewhat lame
But in their mind our border should be open to all who wish to cross
Totally oblivious to the fact without borders nationhood and prosperity are lost
In their mind the only crisis that would merit concern
Is that illegals who wanted enter were spurned
Only then can we realize that the two of them are not really dumb
Only trying to control the narrative to achieve their open border outcome
And the Mostly Slanted Biased Cack Network true to form
Is more than happy to give them a lie spreading platform

Blues' Last Hurrah Rush to Pass Budget for Fiscal 2023 to Block Red Influence Over Biden

 

In what will be Pelosi’s Last Hurrah, Blues in the House are in a rush
To pass a budget with Blue spending agenda to Reds influence after 2022 crush
The only power the Reds have to curtail Biden’s leftist spending program
To billions of more inflationary dollars to down our throats cram
Is the power of the purse that Blues want to take away
Which Blues will lose after New Year’s Day
Battle lines by the Blues have been drawn
Totally unwilling to cooperate with Reds to soon enjoy a Red Dawn
Biden seduced us in his campaign as the adult who would unify
Continued the bait and switch myth in Inauguration speech which his acts soon would deny
Reds in the House and Senate should now have no illusions where Blues stand
They will go to any lengths to any influence on policy tooth and nail withstand
For the next two years any laws passed in the House will face a Senate demise
Given the Blues rushing to budget none of us should be surprised

McCarthy Can Only Lose 4 Red Votes and Be Elected Speaker

 

The Thin Red Line used to be known as the skirmish lines of British Red Coats
That was used to on a large part of the third world the British Empire to invoke
Today after the failure of the expected Red Wave
That was supposed to send dozens of Blues to their political grave
The Thin Red Line is now the majority in the House of 2-4 Red seats
That Pelosi’s tenure as Speaker went down to defeat
McCarthy in his quest to Pelosi replace as Speaker
Can only suffer 4 no Red votes to win in a squeaker               

If the negative votes total 5
Without mayor Freedom Caucus concessions his quest does not survive
At a time when the Reds must ape the Blues and close ranks
Instead with the Freedom Caucus more like the Squad Red Unity tanks                                                                                                                                
If the Reds cannot move from the tail moving the dog
We are in for a disastrous two year left steamroller slog
Freedom Caucus needs to decide which is worse
McCarthy not backing them 100% or the Biden-Senate leftist curse

          Famous Events that occurred on November 28th
          1.       1914—After being closed due to the start of World War I, the NYSE was reopened for business limited to the trading of bonds with stock trading reopened on December 15, but not below prices that existed on July 30, 1914 until April 15, 2015 when restrictions on price for trading stocks was removed.
          2.       1942—The Coconut Grove Theater, owned by Barney Walensky, whose mafia and political connections allowed him to operate in violation of fire protection standards, caught fire and with too many locked doors blocking exit resulted in 492 people dying and 130 injured and Walensky tried and found guilty manslaughter and sentenced to 19 years  but pardoned after serving almost 4 years to die of cancer less than 9 weeks after his release.

           Quote of the Day: New York Times, January 3, 2015  on The New Street, a stock exchange opened in NYC 8 days after the NYSE closure:  “It furnished a market where stocks could be bought and sold by those who had especial need of liquidating their holdings or had money to invest . . . . At the height of its activity, the New Street market consisted of about thirty-five brokers who dealt for cash only. In the downward slant of prices in October, it was estimated that fully 40,000 shares a day were handled for a number of days, fairly well divided between 100 share lots and 9 11 fractional amounts of stock. The average daily turnover during September, October and November was placed…between 8,000 and 12,000 shares.” Although the volume of stocks traded was some 3-5% of the number daily traded before the closure, it does represent the ingenuity of capitalists to circumvent the collapse of liquidity.

In Chicago Where Armed Armed Car Jackings Are the Norm A Woman Conceal Carry Permit Holder Prevent Hers by Shooting Car Jacker in the Headere C

 

Biden idiotically claims that owning semiautomatic guns is sick
Must think that a single shot gun against a felon with a gun will do the trick
Must be oblivious to the fact that people concerned about their safety are filing for permits to conceal carry
After leaving their house in their car, walking on a sidewalk or in a public place a danger to be shot and buried
Or to be confronted by a homeless person with a knife
Mentally challenged who will want to take your life
There are now 22 million Americans who have concealed carry permits
Is Biden delusional to believe these law abiding citizens will to a ban of their weapons submit?
In a city like Chicago where carjacking at gunpoint has become too often the norm
A woman permit holder was facing 4 carjackers and in sight no cops in uniform
One of the hijackers pointed a gun at her head
And she shot him first in the head instead
And from the scene although wounded fled
Had she not been a concealed carry holder she could now be dead
In the shooting gallery of Chicago one is not safe even in broad daylight
No one should want to be unarmed when in a felon’s gun sight

National Holiday: Eat With a Friend Day: Not sure when or by whom this food day originated, but it seems perfectly timed given the fact your refrigerator is probably crammed with Thanksgiving Day leftovers.
          Word of the Day: The word of the day is “abdominous” which means having a pouch or big belly which probably describes most of us after having a massive Thanksgiving meal.      Holiday of the Day: Today is Black Friday, the day in which after most of the year retailers are in the red, they have climbed back into the oasis of profit. Also the day may be rightfully named for the black and blue marks riotous shoppers surging through the stores fighting for bargains have suffered. Finally the day is appropriate for the black band that should be placed across one’s credit cards for the mortal wounds they have suffer in sating on bargain sales.
          Number 1 Song of the Day: So far this year as of today 23 artists have recorded a number one song 13 of whom achieved number 1 status for the first time while one artist Canadian Rapper Drake had 2 number one songs. Today Taylor Swift with “Anti-Hero” has the number 1e song on a run of 5 weeks. Here is a link to Taylor Swift performing “Anti-Hero”:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1kbLwvqugk.
          Famous Birthdays: Joey Chestnut, aka Jaws, born on this day in 1983 is a world famous professional easter and 15 time champion of Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest (breaking his own world record of 75 by winning with 76 HDB’s in 2021 and despite hobbled by a ruptured leg tendon won this year).

To the Truth Party Very Late Comes Completely Biased Slants (CBS)

 

The CBS acronym is supposed to mean Columbia Broadcast System
Years people tuned into CBS Evening News to hear Uncle Walter’s wisdom
Now the meaning is different and should to us all raise alarm
CBS stands for Completely Biased Slants and has delivered great harm
After two years of dismissing claims of Hunter’s shady activities as conspiracies of the right wing
And claiming Hunter’s lap top was a Russian to influence to the election bring
Ignored
the exposé of the New York Post and joined social media to the story kill
May have helped Biden win by censoring the story to prevent Biden’s chances from heading downhill
Now two years later CBS finally admits
That the Hunter laptop story was legit
The worse kind of censorship by the self-censors at CBS
Is the censorship of ideas by omission to the truth suppress

Mayorkas Fires Back at McCarthy on Impeachment Threat--Claims DHS Is Working to Secure Border

 

After McCarthy’s scathing remarks that Mayorkas must resign or face impeachment hearings
One would have thought he would view it as an empty threat and not fearing
With a slim Red Margin in the House and the Senate under Blue rule
Mayorkas must have viewed McCarthy’s remarks as the ranting of a fool
But Mayorkas to our great surprise came out swinging to try to defend
The indefensible as illegal immigration in October rose to continue the rising trend
He had the DHS claim it’s continuing to enforce our laws and secure the border
While building an immigration system that is safe, orderly and humane as we see crossing lines getting longer not shorter
Safety in the delusional minds of Mayorkas’ DHS
Must mean quickly transporting illegals to the interior to relieve that trekking stress
Orderly in the oblivious minds of Mayorkas’ DHS
Must mean illegals need not flee only stand and wait to be processed
Humane in the unrealistic minds of Mayorkas’ DHS
Must mean all illegals fleeing poverty must have unfettered access
Ignoring that if a lifeboat must pick up all who have been thrown into the drink
There is an almost certain chance that the lifeboat will flounder and then sink  
Sadly only three things will the border secure
First, that illegals morph into voting Red to lose their Blue allure
Secondly, that Reds take over the W.H. in 2024
And reinstate and enhance the Trump border policies Biden continues to ignore
Third, the border states joined by states feds are shipping illegals to declare they are being invaded
And turn all illegals without approved asylum back since their safety, security and prosperity are being degraded
If New Mexico, Texas and Arizona all so declare
It will mean California will have to almost all illegals have to bear
Causing Newsom maybe to preserve his presidential aspirations
To join with the three states and withhold any condemnation

2022 Thanksgiving Times

 

2022 Thanksgiving Times

 

A Tuesday near T-Day in the Beach Hut watching a Laker-Suns B-Game hoping a poem will appear
A clarion muse call in these divisive times to cause rancor to disappear
A Red Wave that fizzled in its crest to the House Speaker barely dowse
But by 2020 like Blue margins the Reds have taken over the House
The Senate to in Blue control still maintain
Still to know whether Walker can run through a Warnock tackle to his seat obtain
A time to be thankful for one’s blessings is part of the Thanksgiving name
But also a time for giving time and money to those who do not share the same
Also, a time to be tolerant of those with whom you have disagreed
In these divisive times ad hominem and violent attacks are not what we need
A time to the divisiveness scathing the nation come to an end
A change to without personal attacks trying to solve problems trend
If with a mouth full of turkey trying to chew
It is too hard to with vicious attacks spew
It is time to the over the top rhetoric cease
To focus on “Pass another serving of turkey please”
As the calming wave of L-tryptophan
Slowly after eating spreads across our land
Try to continue to ape the hallowed annual T-Day tradition
Pardon your foes like the two large white turkeys to escape being the day’s main nutrition

McCarthy Makes Empty Threat to Mayorkas to Resign Or Be Impeached While States Declaration of Invasion Might Work

 McCarthy like most Americans is outraged over our open border
Counting the illegals not caught some 3,000,000 this year
A welcome open portal for deadly drugs like fentanyl to make our lives shorter
With Title 42 ended by a federal judge, an increased number we should fear
The troika of the “border is secure” liars
Mayorkas, who won’t resign and impeachment won’t result in a guilty verdict, and  Harris and Biden
Ignoring the fact the numbers this year will be higher
With their heads in the sand hidin’
The border states other than just Texas must declare
They are subject to an illegal alien foreign invasion
And the costs, damages and dangers to safety they can no longer bear
And all the pleas for feds to secure the border have been met with evasion
Some 2.2M illegals with mostly bogus asylum claims crossing the Rio Grande
And then signed in with a promise to in an Immigration Court later to their “asylum” claim hear
Then put aboard by the CBP on a bus or plane and sent into cities across the land
And when their appearance date comes years from now they have disappeared
The declaration soon would head to the courts facing  TRO’s
Plaintiffs would argue illegals are not armed so an invasion it cannot be
As a first step as toward SCOTUS the case would go
As our schools, medical care systems, social safety nets and cities face insolvency
We need more immigrants who follow the law
Not just those wanting to flee to make more bucks
Claiming asylum status that is almost always flawed
If we cannot secure the border our prosperity, safety and quality of life will suck

U.S.A. Pride Seems to Be Missing from U.S. Soccer Team and Coach's Shirt

 The World Cup has begun but controversy there was not on the run

Qatar is a Muslim country that consumption of alcohol controls and somewhat shuns
Alcohol will not be sold in the stadium except in some exclusive hospitality suites
That will to the ordinary fans say no to their admission entreats

That should not be a controversy since in many stadiums alcohol consumption has been the cause
Large chaotic fights and brawls among spectators breaking all manner of laws
No wonder in this nation where serving beer is allowed the spigots end before the game
To while the game continues the proclivity for alcohol fueled fans running amok is tamed
But in an world athlete events were the fans of different nations are consumed with national pride
The U.S. Soccer Team appears to any pride in representing this nation curtail or hide
The iconic U.S.A. logo with a U.S.A. gay pride logo has been replaced
And the coach wore a plain black Nike shirt with the logo “STATES” and the “United” erased
China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea seeing this must be licking their chops
If the U.S. is really only 50 separate states, it will quickly fall from the top
When it comes to human rights we should never against gays and lesbians discriminate
Nor should they be allowed to on the straights have their life style dominate

Biden Oblivious to Avian Flu's Devastation of Turkey Stocks Has a Knee Jerk Blame Putin for Higher Thanksgiving Meal Costs

 

Is Biden so senile that it on him will never dawn
That he has lost all credibility with his Blame Putin blinders on?
The Avian bird flu not Putin has decimated poultry stocks
Some 8 million birds have been sacrificed on the chopping blocks
Never to find their way to a table
Supplies less than demand so prices not stable
A man with complete awareness would a virus blame
But in politics ends justify the means is not how you play the game
Prices, especially in energy, started their inflationary rise
Very soon after Inauguration Day well before Russian tanks attacked and missiles filled the skies
The main culprit for the higher costs on T-Day
Is that war on fossil fuels and higher spending makes inflation here to stay
The only rational thing that Biden has done as we near Thanksgiving
Is that he has continued the tradition of to two huge turkeys a pardon is giving

Former Miss Universe Dating Christian McCaffrey in a Relationship Based on God

 

2012 Miss Universe Olivia Culpo is a beauty to be awed
Who has proclaimed her relationship with her lover is “rooted in God”
So appropriate to learn Christian is his first name
McCaffrey of runner up Heisman Trophy fame
Now with the 49er’s and running free and catching passes
Since 2019 has been dating one of the more sought after lasses
Who unlike many in Hollywood today
Wants to have a large family come her way
Christian we hope on the field continues to healthy stay
And from tackles shift, dodge and run away
But being from Stanford he should be a very bright man
And knows she would a great catch to put a ring on her hand
When his running and catching days are done
Maybe a new skill he would his fans stun
Acting lessons to enjoy with her to the Oscars a scoring run  
Until then we hope he continues to tackles but not T.D.’s shun

The Mouse That Became a Chinaphile Lion Is Back From Retirement

 

Out of retirement at Disney after less than a year is Robert Iger
A Chinaphile and poster child for Year of the Tiger
Who followed Eisner’s often bended knee
To our existential threat the CCP
Most satisfying moment for him was opening Disney Shanghai
So eager for Chinese entry to the park for more profits on which to rely
While silent on the Chinese Uyghur genocide and slave labor to deny
From the U.S. and most of our allies only words while Uyghurs slave and die
If the U.S. had a Chinese calendar Robert Iger would the poster child of the Year of the Rat
For in our struggle against the existential Chinese threat unwilling to go to bat
Staying in the dugout of increasing Disney woke
While criticism of conservative alarm over the CCP to stoke
Parents with children on paying outrageous Disneyland and World admission fees
Should boycott a company which to the existential threat of the CCP
Self censors its entertain and views on China bends its knees
And no longer close its eyes and ears to the human rights abuses there to see
In his quest for higher profits at any cost this advice he should believe the CCP’s creed
When we hang the last capitalist we will have sold him the rope we need

A Playport Pre Thanksgiving Day Feast Beta Site

 

Pre-Thanksgiving 2022 Playport Feast

 

Once again near Thanksgiving we lucky Playporters celebrate a warm up banquet
To over turkey and its trimmings celebrate our blessings and our worries forget
Joyful that unlike the celebration of the real McCoy
To enjoy the cuisine and neighbors to enjoy
As opposed to the stress of Black Friday to soon be employed
When restaurants cannot find chefs, servers and busboys to deploy
We are blessed with a band of volunteers to enable us this meal to enjoy
What a better place than Playport to resolutions of dieting destroy
Water may be the universal solvent but this poet believes there is one better
That when enjoyed with others jealousy, anger and prejudice are soon fettered
Hard to find a soul spouting hateful speech
While the food needs to be passed since it’s out of reach
And not wanting to a morsel of stuffing or turkey spew
While savoring the taste while one enjoyingly chews
A bountiful warmup day for the near Thanksgiving Day to blessings reveal
Looking forward to what rewards and challenges the coming year will deal

McCarthy's Chance for Speaker May Be Iffy As 3 Reds Say They Will Vote No; How Many More Reds Will Join?

 

Under Pelosi’s tyrannical reign as sure as the Sun would rise in East each day
It was almost unheard of if a Blue from the Blue Caucus on critical issues would stray
She ruled with an iron fist as a fund raising without equal machine
No wonder deviations from the Blue Caucus would rarely be seen
Already with cracks in what has to be a united Red front are starting to appear
Some Reds are expressing for McCarthy hesitation and fear
With six seats still too close to call Reds have 218
With some 4 to 6 more winners in the Red column to be seen
3 Red have announced that as Speaker for McCarthy they will not vote
If 4 more join them McCarthy as Speaker will have missed the vote
Without the Senate in Red hands trying to advance an agenda will be a tough job
While fighting tooth and nail against Biden’s agenda that will our prosperity, security and standing rob
The first words out of McCarthy’s mouth was that the investigations start on January 1
When the words should have been the agenda to improve our lives will have begun
The Reds have probably less than 9 months into 2023
Before battle lines will be drawn for 2024 and blame game and gridlock we will see
While Trump’s personality not his policies for economic advancement will be a divisive force instead
Can the Reds in the House not be looking backward at investigating the past misdeeds rather with an agenda looking ahead?
To in 2024 to run on a record of what was in the best interests of the nation?
Blocked by a Biden White House and a Blue Senate instead
Will the Reds striving to replace  senile president be torn asunder
By a Trump sucking the oxygen out of the room trying restore his past thunder?
And will the Blues faced by cognitive disaster Edith and doctors cannot hide
Tear themselves apart in presidential mania trying to push Biden aside?
Too early to tell
Only for certain we face a political Hell

Musk Ridicules Blues in a Tweet while They Ignore FTX Fraud in Billions Because Founder is $38 Billion Donor?

 The left is in meltdown mode over Musk’s purchase of Twitter

The fact that he is a supporter of free speech makes them very bitter
7 Blue Senators unlike the movie are not the Magnificent Seven on whom mere mortals could rely Blumenthal, Lujan, Warren, Markey, Menendez,  Booker and DiFi  
Are demanding that Musk’s takeover is putting consumers at risk
Because Musk will champion free speech as censorship of conservative Red ideas will cease to exist

They have signed and sent a letter to the FTC demanding an investigation
Oblivious to the fact that the number 2 Blue donor appears to be guilty of the theft of billions to merit our condemnation
Blues are quick to point out Sam Bankman-Fried also donated to Reds
1% of the $38 billion total and the other 99+% to elect Blues instead
Twitter employees who have not been fired and choose to remain
Will find a new sheriff in Twitter Town to cause free speech and objectivity to reign
Musk may be in for a rough slog
Bringing some objectivity to this leftist bog
Look for the left to begin a concerted campaign
To have advertisers on Twitter spending to refrain
When it push comes to shove this poet on Musk would place his bets
Watching him succeed while making the biased left really very upset
© November 18, 2022 The Alaskanpoet
We also should cheer
His to the point tweets to appear
Ridicule the left for chasing windmills
While a huge Blue donor was fleecing his investors from a lot of bills

Joyless Reid on the Properly Named "Tune Reid Out" Claims No Saturday Voting Is Red Voting Block

 

Biased Joyless Reid’s show of leftist misleading rants is called “Reid Out”
If viewers on the existence of her misleading biased rants ever had a doubt
All they had to do is listen to her rant that Georgia is delaying early voting on Saturday
Because it follows a “State Holiday” celebrating the Robert E. Lee’s birthday
She must be incapable of reading the Georgia statute so easy to find
Or the ever present bias has poisoned any objective neurons in her mind
The statute is crystal voting is prohibited for 2 days after a holiday in the state
Which unless Joyless is a vegan but still meatless Thanksgiving as a holiday rates
If this biased purveyor of fake news cannot retract
She and her show must be sacked
Viewers to her show should tune out
With Joyless truth is subject to a biased rout

As Claims of FTX Fraud Grows, Cal Bears Remove FTX Logo From 25 Yard Lines Before Cal Stanford Big Game

 

On November 19th Cal at home plays Stanford for the 125th time in what is called “The Big Game”
But with each team non bowl eligible the contest has lost a lot of its prior fame
But one aspect of the site used to have a now infamous name
Cal’s stadium was called FTX Field but after the company went down in B/K flames
The Golden Bears on what may be an Enron like scam were quick to react
The FTX logo on the 25 yard line quickly met an erasure redact
So, the now “The Little Big Game” can now be played
Without the distraction of the FTX logo on display
The Cal Bears’ logo removal was not alone
The Miami Heat is quickly trying to find a new name for its arena home
Mercedes removed the logo from its Formula One racing cars
FTX before its B/K had snared Tom Brady, Stephen Curry and a lot of athlete and celebrity stars
Brady as a FTX Ambassador even made some ads for FTX
Now ruing he was paid in crypto as opposed to dollar checks

Crypto Currency King Sam Bankman-Fried Fall from Grace May Be Like Enron and Madoff

 

In the 2024 elections Blues look like they will be without their Number 2 cash cow
Sam Bankman-Fried in 2022 Blue candidates’ races with $38 million chose to endow
This 28 year old crypto currency king with the bitcoin bubble was riding high
Investors were lulled into to believing only upside great returns on which they could rely
His net worth was reported to be in excess of 17 billion plus bucks
With his company FTX now B/K with a near zero worth he is really out of luck
Worse sources are claiming like Rome being looted by the Huns
That he has stolen $1 billion of client funds
And transferred another $10 billion of client funds to his company Alameda Research
Shades of clients like those investors in Enron and Madoff’s Ponzi schemes being left in the lurch
Bankman may have to change the first of his hyphenated surname to Conman
As he is now under criminal investigation in the Bahamas for his alleged scam
Here in the U.S. Pelosi’s supposed successor Hakeem
Who received $5800 from Bankman not a donee PAC is silent on the scheme
And Waters that icon of honesty and objectivity on the issue of $38 billion to PAC’s to Blues only sent
When asked Maxine was quick to lie those donations to Reds also went
Conman-Fried needs to before Congress appear
Before this conman escaping extradition disappears
Another example of our democracy really under attack
Not by MAGA Reds but by the millions upon millions of donations elections attract

"The Is No Violent Crime Problem" D.A. Krasner Has Been Impeached by the Pennsylvania House

 

Philadelphia is no longer the City of Brotherly Love anymore

A surging violent crime spree that Krasner the D.A. chooses to ignore
It has gotten so bad the PPD in its reporting to the FBI
Is alleged to have been underreporting criminal activity in its reply
The Pennsylvania Red controlled House has finally on his soft on crime ruled enough
On party lines voted to impeach Krasner due to his soft on crime actions rebuff

To remove this failing prosecutor the Reds will have to find 5 safety conspicuous Blues
If they can it will be the first step that the reign of Soros’ soft on crime is through
Living in an urban shooting gallery is not a safe place to be
Both parties need to speak as one on ending Philadelphia’s crime spree

If the impeachment trial is delayed until next year
6 Blue votes to impeach will need to with the Reds appear

Jill Biden as Edith Needs to Step Aside to Be Replaced by Giselle Fetterman

 

In the needed role of being an Edith it looks like Jill may no longer be the one cast
She should be honored in her efforts to protect Biden from dementia in the two years past
But there now looks like a new Edith has arrived
Who believes from cognitive stroke disasters she helped Fetterman survive
Listening to Fetterman it should be clear a cognitive recovery he lacks
And Giselle Fetterman his surrogate was taking up his mental slack
It is said that a photo is worth a thousand words or more
A social media posting of her and the senator-elect at his office crops him half out the door
She is front and center looking like she not he  in charge will be
He is in a suit not a hoody hands clasped with body language showing anxiety
Over the difficulties he will as a cognitively recovering senator face
Or a realization that his wife looks like she wants to run the place?
We wish him for the next 6 years well
And hope another stroke does not send him deeper into cognitive Hell

 The Blues are whooping it up keeping the Senate and it looks like barely losing the House
But a silver cloud for Reds as Sam Bankman-Fried suddenly by insolvency has been doused
The second largest donor to Blue causes at 38 million bucks
Has seen his $17.6 billion net worth to near zero been chucked
His crypto currency company FTX filed for BK and closed its doors
This former touted genius now more like a crypto con man will donate no more
The third ranking Blue believed to be in line to Pelosi succeed
Hakeem Jeffries received $5800 from him to try to sate his campaign needs
Conservative investors who could not dig beneath the crypto hype
And failing to understand, did not invest and are sleeping better tonight
And Blues with 2024 just around the proverbial door
Are wondering where the next leftist patsy is to replace Bankman on the donor dance floor

Biden Warns Russia "not one inch of Ukraine" as Two Missiles Strike NATO Member Poland How Does the U.S. and NATO Respond?

 

The War in Ukraine has taken a deadly and dangerous twist
Raising fears that containing the war will get harder to exist
Two Russian rockets hit a Polish town near the border with Ukraine
While Russian missiles on civilian targets in Ukraine cities contain to rain
Putin seems hell bent to bring Ukraine to its knees
Oblivious to the growing number of Russian coffins Russian families now see
We cannot protect every village and city from missile attack
But the question must be raised why do Iron Domes the nation lacks
Maybe the Palestinian rocket are too crude
And so easy to destroy when Israeli airspace they intrude
Biden has vowed to defend every inch of the territory of Ukraine
Including the territories annexed which Zelensky has vowed cannot be retained?
Against a non-nuke power like Syria we were quick to retaliate
With cruise missiles to the offending air base devastate
What do we do if Russia does not apologize and reparations for the deaths and damages pay
We are out of sanctions and those in place gutted by China so do we send a limited missile strike Russia’s way?
The ante in this high stake poker game has been raised
Has Congress been briefed and consulted on the escalation dangers appraised?
Any military reaction has to be limited and well thought out
Designed to deter future attacks on NATO countries but not a Russian escalation bring about

A Texas School District Limits Bathroom Use to Biological Sex at Birth

 

The transgender bathroom wars are still being waged
For parents with girls having them exposed to chicks with dicks is an outrage
A transgender with a penis with hormones still intact
For a girl in the restroom fearing her safety lacks
The rights of the majority seem trampled by a very small number of transgenders
How do we accommodate the minority without safety of girls not surrender?
One solution might be unisex bathrooms with one stall that the user could lock
A girl could use it and entry by a chick with dick easily block
The only problem is that in some schools students light up or do drugs in the bathrooms
A locked door with a student doing drugs laced with fentanyl brings a deadly doom
Smoke alarms could solve the problem of tobacco or cocaine pipe use
But alarms do not exist to sense drugs injected by needle abuse
This is a problem that one would think rational objective minds could solve
Requiring gender transformation surgery for minors should not be involved
Surgery which may be nonreversible should be made by an adult not a teen
Who may be too influenced by the lure of the transgender scene
The lockable one stall bathroom solution seems the best
Along with massive efforts to educate on dangers of OD’s to fentanyl use arrest

Samantha Peer a Science Teacher at Thunderbolt Middle School and Khloe Karter on OnlyFans Forced to Resign for Porno Videos in Classroomgraece dscp{

 

The NEA already slammed and backtracking for its idiotic view
Probably tweeted as it is like a fund raising PAC for the Blues
That educators on kids’ education know best
May want to higher teacher’s salaries more forcefully suggest
In Lake Havasu, Arizona Thunderbolt Middle School teacher Samantha Peer
Was forced to resign after her pornos on OnlyFans started to appear
Using the name Khloe Karter and what looked like classroom sets
Raised money with porno scenes some with her teacher hubby and others she may have met
Her rationale was that the family’s salaries were not enough
So porno was a means to into their bank account needed cash stuff
Tried to anonymity in Arizona maintain
Arizona residents access to account was restrained
Forgetting that posting something on social media can in unlimited numbers be shared
Some students received the classroom sex act videos, and her identity was laid bare
She and her husband are now both out of work
But posting on social media to see if porno actress career lurks

NEA Backtracks on Slammed Comments on Kids' Education It Knows Best But Mom's of 4 Like DeVos Don't Count

 

On one thing the record of the impact of COVID-19 parents know well
Due to school lockdowns scores in Math and Reading fell
On line learning in elementary schools was a complete disaster
Poorer neighborhoods did not have lots of prior home computer experience to the lessons master
For schools that were open but had mask mandates covering most of the face
The learning skills picked up by seeing facial  expressions were erased
For the teachers’ unions who brag that they not parents for a kid’s education know best
The school lockdowns and mask mandates impact on declining math and reading scores failed the test
All the teachers had to do instead of fighting school openings and end to mask mandates tooth and nail
Was to look at the actions of Blue leaders like Newsom ordering the lockdowns and mandates 2 sending their kids to open maskless private schools did not fail
NEA rightfully blasted for tweeting educators know best
Then backtracking that families’ input needed but as to billionaires suggest
That DeVos as a mother of four was an out of touch billionaire
Whose ideas the high and mighty NEA could never with parents share
Total campaign contributing Hack for Blues  whose Midterm results cheering
Ignorant of the reasons more and more charter schools and in home learning appearing

Biden Punts on COVID-19 Origin, Fentanyl, and Taiwan Invasion in 3 1/2 Hour Meeting with XI but Praises Blues' Performance in Midtermsrewith

 

Once again Biden with China proves to be a complete wimp
3 ½ hour meeting with President Xi but on critical issues he chose to scrimp
Not one word on the issue of the Chinese origin of COVIV-19
That devastated our economy and turned our morgues and ICU’s into overflowing scenes
Not one word on China’s export of fentanyl to Mexican drug cartels
Made into pills or disguised in products and then across our open border to users sell
So deadly that one small pill or a product laced with the drug will kill
A very expensive result for a user looking only for a drug induced high or thrill
Fentanyl is 50 times more powerful than heroin with over 75,000 deaths
Of persons aged 18-45 fentanyl use is the leading cause of persons taking their last breath
No, our wimp President was probably shaking in his boots
Could only about the Blues’ midterm successes root
And of course his favorite energy independence target the need for climate change
With the U.S. tied down in supplying weapons to Ukraine and hoping for peace talks arrange
The world fearing that on a Chinese invasion of Taiwan is nearing the brink
Not a word on a believable U.S. military response that would make China on an invasion rethink
Watching a mentally impaired Biden on the world stage should make us fear
Knowing in the next 2 years without a Red Senate it will be worse as more and more on his needed neurons disappear

Hochul Be Dammed Another Good Man With a Gun Stops a Killing and Kidnapping by Being a Good Sam

 

Hochul whose soft on crime views suffering New Yorkers will have to endure for 4 years
With Hochul’s pronouncement that the time of the good man with a gun is done ringing in their ears
Had a chance to learn not in their state but in the Peach State
What a good man with a gun can do to crime abate
Getting an oil change in a Warner Springs Walmart
Kelcey Willis witnessed a kidnapping start
The young boy was screaming as he was being dragged into the woods
Fortunately for the victim what had to be done, Willis quickly understood
Grabbed his gun and into the woods to the sound of screaming ran
The kidnapper was on top choking the victim with death as his plan
The barrel of his gun pointed at the kidnapper’s chest
Was all it took to the choking stop, the victim let loose and wait for the police to arrest
Hochul on crime is a total fool and over the next 4 years will have massive blood on her hands
Thankfully there are still citizens who when danger calls they without fear become  Good Sams

Another Day Another Location and Another Biden Where Am I Major Gaffe--So Sad and No Longer Makes Us Laugh

 

It seems far too often when Biden opens his mouth listeners must cringe
As what comes out means he is moving faster past the dementia fringe
Each day more and more functioning neurons he lacks
Even though on his latest repeated twice  major gaffe the MSM is pushing for slack
After all both countries end with an “ia”  start with a “C”
Another example of his not knowing where he’s at to see
ASEAN meeting is not being held in Columbia over 11,000 miles away
But in Cambodia where the meeting delegates came to hear what he had to say
Maybe we can blame his handlers for not going through the “where are you drill”
But the world listening to him with the football must be feeling a chill
His increasing gaffes and lapses explains why the latest “mental giant” he supports
The effects of Fetterman’s stroke have not yet been cured viewers can report
The two look like in the mental disability race they are running neck and neck
But with his age, while Fetterman should improve, Biden’s increasing dementia we can expect
Jill may be good at what she does but against dementia growing she is not up to the task
For the sake of the country in 2024 we hope she will convince him it’s time for beach walks or by the ocean just bask

Mayorkas Has Order CBP Chief Chris Magnus to Resign or Be Fired When He the One Who Should Resign

 

The number of illegals we know about who were encountered and too dumb to run away
Totaled some 2.4 million which is a new record for illegals to be exceeded in fiscal 2023 if to Red Congressional majorities voters say nay
The head of the CBP Chris Magnus who has been in office for about a year,
Crippled by Biden’s and DHS policies has had little success in blocking the flood of illegals that daily appear,
Mayorkas best known for flat out lying to the public that the border is secure
While more than 2.4 million illegals are voting with their feet attracted by Biden’s open border lure
Has ordered Chris Magnus to resign his office or be fired
When Mayorkas whose performance ridicules why he was hired
Is the one who if he had any integrity would have resigned because securing the border could not be done
As long as the Biden welcome mat remained out enticing illegals here and Trump era policies that worked he continued to shun
Mayorkas resigning is a bet you cannot take to the bank
He's sucking down his pay oblivious to the nation going down the tank

Navarro Blasts DeSantis for "Gaming the System But Ignoring Blue PACs Contributing To Red Primary Candidates Believed To Be Too Extreme

 

If you want to watch and listen to “pundits” who are without on issues a clue
Turn on the TV and turn quickly to the channel that airs The View
 Navarro was ranting on how DeSantis gamed the system to win
The same old tired false narrative that Florida was making voting difficult spin
Then falsely intoned that Crist, a has been political corpse, was helped by DeSantis to win his primary
Totally ignored the fact Blue PACs were contributing to Reds thought to be extreme that in the general the voters would bury
The only intelligent thing that came out of her mouth is that in Miami-Dade County DeSantis ran laser-focused campaign
And was Johnny on the Spot when Hurricane Ian hit the state with massive storm surges and torrential rain
This supposed Red seems intent on joining the Belittle and Dump on DeSantis Band
Trying to knock him down so he does not get the nomination and become the next president of this land

The Big Sky State May Become the Left to Die State as Voters Rejected a Referendum Making a Viable Fetus Surviving an Abortion a Legal PersonmakmEfernree

 

Montana was known as the “Big Sky State” but after election day
It may become known as the “Left to Die State” to prolife voters dismay
By a margin of 20,000 votes a referendum that said a fetus that survived an abortion and was viable was a legal person
Entitled to medical care not left to die because it would be to the parents a now unwanted burthen
A fetus born live during a botched abortion would have the same rights as fetus born live and premature
Pro-life proponents heavily outspent by pro-abortion supporters were in shock and rancor
Montana has a Safe Haven Law that allows a parent to drop off a newborn with no signs of abuse aged less than 30 days
At a police, sheriff or fire station, hospital or emergency services provider and from parental responsibilities walk away
In a botched abortion since the referendum did not pass will there be a requirement to provide medical care?
Or will the abortionist be permitted leave the viable fetus to lie there
Until death completes the abortionist’s failed task?
Wonder if the mother seeking abortion or pro-choice backers will that question ask
