Eric Swalwell Oblivious To A Liar's First Law Of Lying--Lie Only When the Truth Is Hard To Find

 

Eric Swalwell is the poster child
Of lies and anti-Trump bias running wild
Not sure if he is completely too lazy to the truth find
But time and time again he lies to the American people blind
From seeing or hearing the truth from undisputed facts
When he opens his lips you know saying the truth he lacks
On February 17^th  he posted on X a posting that 7 million viewers were dumb enough to view
"No president has had more planes crash in their first month in office than Donald Trump," which was blatantly untrue
He must have been dreaming of his time with Fang Fang he wanted to revive
55 airplane accidents from Biden’s Inauguration Day to February 17, 2021 compared to Trump’s 35
Exposed to the blatant lie he said he misspoke
Meant to say commercial airliners not the truth to revoke
After Chucky Schumer’s rant that the crashes near Reagan and Toronto were Trump’s fault for firing FAA personnel to merit his disgrace
Lying Swalwell must have been trying to win points and get in Schumer’s good graces
He claimed a Biden statue on a Blue Mt. Rushmore will be sent
When his convincing Jill and the MSM to conceal his dementia until the Trump debate was his only noted accomplishment

Epstein Lolita Express Files Being Released By AG Bondi--What Perverts of Minor Females Will Be Revealed

 

Across the nation men who flew to Epstein’s Debauchery Island on the Lolita Express If married are feeling a lot of anxiety and distress
Meeting with their lawyers and reviewing their prenuptial agreement
Wondering what disclosures are in the declassified Epstein files and how hard to be able to with an outraged spouse repent
For those men of power and pursuing political gain
Are fearful their promising political careers may be flushed down the drain
Infidelity in today’s licentious world too often runs wild and seems the norm
But sexual relations with underage female minors will release career ending condemnation firestorms
If the Epstein files by AG Bondi being released show such criminal behavior
That D.A.’s seeing the outrage for such perversion criminal prosecution will favor
If convictions for such perversions are obtained and the once high and mighty are sent to prison
To their horror and regret will find their perversions by fellow cons are not forgiven
They will be in constant fear that this day will be the last day to live
Fearing a fellow con likely to have been molested as a child will kill him with a shiv
Had not Trump won and appointed Pam Bondi as his AG
The Epstein files might have remained classified so any Lolita Express perverts’ crimes would remain in classified obscurity

Keith Olbermann Rails Against MSNBC For Its "Racist" Purge of "Joyless" Reid

 

Keith Olbermann, his brain and judgment devastated by TDS Stage 4
Is having a meltdown claiming the firing of “Joyless” Reid is an MSNBC racist purge that super biased Madow, O’Donnell and Hayes can’t ignore
Totally oblivious to the apparent ratings fact
That needed viewers her hosted show lacked
Not because she is black but because of her never ending anti-Trump tirades
Among viewers with channel clickers failed the ratings needed passing grades
It is unbelievable Olbermann who has been on TV for decades
Has not learned that without viewers ad revenue totals quickly degrade
Olbermann with his bias blinders firmly in place against MSNBC rails
That if they continue to replace black hosts with white men they will fail
Like all leftists who are so lazy they never make an effort to the truth find and instead the truth ignore
Reid’s replacements are Sanders, Kamala’s black female spoke person, Steele, a black former head of the DNC and Alicia Menendez, daughter of a convicted felon Senator
Olbermann is like crab grass and difficult to eradicate
Has degenerated into another podcast with no information on number of viewers it rates

America Is Getting Fed Up With Hosts on MSNBC Infected With TDS Stage 4 As Wagner and Reid Let Go Along With Half of Madow's Staff

 

Finally MSNBC of “Mainly Slanted Narcistic Biased Cack”
Is feeling the effects of TDS Stage 4 as more and more viewers it lacks
Shows of hosts like Madow, Reid, and Wagner have been shedding viewers like a dandruff blizzard
And the reasons for the accelerating loss of viewers does not need a rocket scientist or a wizard
With more than 70% of Americans supporting most of Trump’s agenda to “Make America Great Again”
Viewers have quickly tired of the anti-Trump “journalists” spewing stale advocacy anti-Trump distortions that don’t end
The hosts and their staffers blinded by TDS Stage 4 cannot comprehend
That advertisers do not want to shell out millions showing ads on shows a declining number of viewers choose to view
That are less like news and more like propaganda repeated over and over of the DNC trying to elect more out of touch Blues
So MSNBC’s prima donna Rachel Madow who with the truth plays fast and loose
Is losing half her staff hopefully making it more difficult for her to her lies produce
Wagner as a host was given her pink slip
And Joy no longer, replaced by Joyless, Reid grips
Forced to leave MSNBC but like a true leftist warrior fired her last shot
Blasted MSNBC for its fascism and that the U.S. is awash in fascists which it clearly is not
Hate to wish unemployment on any American even one so biased as Reid
But she will be off the air for a long time if her blatant bias is not shed and she does not the siren  call of objectivity heed

67 Year Old Murderer in South Carolina To Be Executed On March 5 Chooses Firing Squad

 

Shades of a Gary Gilmore déjà vu in 1977 executed by the state of Utah
With the convicted inmate choosing between hanging which if not done right was painfully flawed
Not falling far enough to break the neck with near instant death
But slowing and painfully being choked until out of any breaths
Or the firing squad of 5 rifles firing through slots aimed at the heart
The condemned would not hear the sound and would feel impact as life almost instantaneously would depart
Fast forward to South Carolina where 67 year old Brad Sigmon is to be executed on March 7 for beating 2 victims to death in 2001
His choices were to be burned to death with a massive amount of volts which considering the agony he chose to shun
Or by the slow process of injection of a drug cocktail|
Which has the dubious record during the process pain ending fail
With the last choice being the firing squad of 3 rifles targeted through slots at the heart
Hooded to not see the flash and bullets too fast to hear the sound and maybe feel the impact as life quickly departs
Once again the time often in many decades spent on death row as brief after briefs are filed to the execution halt or at least stay
Leads one to really question whether the death penalty as a deterrence of a contemplated murder stands in the way
And if life without possibility of parole means that a governor or president cannot under any circumstance issue a get out of prison card to release
It may really be time to the death penalty for all but terrorism, treason, espionage or multiple murders of the scale of 9/11 cease

Unlike 2018 President Trump Has Invited Super Bowl Champs the Eagles To the White House

 

There was a time before TDS Stage 4 among the Blues ran amok
Accelerated by HRC’s Rope-A-Dope campaign that never freed itself from the unlikability muck
That winners of the Super Bowl received a Disneyland visit and to the White House an invite
A persuasive view supported by the NFL that a visit was an honor and delight
In 2018 when the Eagles won the Superbowl, the NFL was engaged in the National Anthem dispute
Where many players, including Eagles, chose to kneel and respect for the flag seemed to refute
Trump was outraged over the NFL’s taking a knee and opposed to standing with helmet off and  the players’ right hand covering the heart|
He did not want to see disrespect for the flag viewed on TV by 100’s of millions before the game would start
He cancelled the invite and a visit to the White House the Eagles missed
A country divided sliding into protests of Trump’s not my president abyss
What a difference due to the suffering by Americans under the demented Biden rule
With Trump winning more votes than the Word Salad Queen who could rarely complete a sentence with words like a stream of drool
And over 70% of voters eagerly sporting Trump’s policies|
A revolt by the winning Eagles kneeling during the National Anthem would be the height of idiocy
Trump the master of the deal and able to always the photo ops to seal
Invited the Eagles, our National Bird, to the White House knowing that if there might be some anti-Trumpsters they will their feelings conceal

Chicago and NYC Are In Illegals Induced Financial Mess We Need a Balanced Budget Amendment To Crawl Out Of National Debt Hole

 

Our first and third cities in terms of population are The Big Apple and the Windy City
Both are governed by Blues and both are looking at empty kitties
Chicago, led by leftist Brandon, a teachers’ union organizer who has never held private sector job,
Is cursed with a failing public school system so bad that for so many students a chance for a decent future is robbed
Parts of Chicago with black majorities are deadlier than Iraqi or Afghani killing zones
Only the foolish or really with semiautomatic rifles are willing to set foot outside their homes
Facing a budget deficit of 10 million bucks
If you are a minority or poor white you are out of luck
In NYC the chaos and budgetary disaster of being a “Sanctuary City” reigns
Its budget for services for illegals cost over $5 Billion in two years and its social safety net for citizens has been flushed down the drain
But with Trump and Vance elected their policies will turn these 2 Hellish pits into Phoenix’s once again destined to fly
Adams has finally seen the light
Trump’s agenda on removing illegals he no longer wishes to fight
But Chicago backed by the state's obese governor is fighting against Trump tooth and nail
To the extent the Mayor of Chicago and the Governor of Illinois are blocking ICE to the cheers of residents we may soon find them in jail
While DOGE is recovering millions upon millions of dollars of waste, fraud and abuse
Hakeem’s Blue lackeys are trying to obstruct DOGE’s every move not wanting to any spending reduce
Sadly since any reductions by DOGE will not a Blue President Survive
Without a Balanced Budget Amendment budget busting spending would be quickly revived|
A hurdle so very, very high needing to be passed by 2/3’s of both Houses and sent to the states to ratify
Where if 3/4’s of the legislatures or constitutional conventions do not ratify in time allowed the amendment would die

Noem Ends Open Border Loophole Ending CBP One App Unless Flights Used to Self Deport Illegals

 

Thank God “The Boder Is Secure” Lying head of DHS Mayorkas has been replaced
By former governor of South Dakota Christi Noem who is deporting illegals at an increasing pace
Biden’s inane CBP One App that allowed illegals to fly awaiting deportation hearing without producing ID
Enabling illegals the ability to use planes to into the interior of the U.S. to flee
Thanks to Noem, has come to a complete halt
Making if difficult for illegals to continue to our immigration laws assault
With one exception that should cause all of us to cheer
If the illegals are appearing at the counter to self deport to the boarding area they will be steered
With upwards of 20 million illegals in the shadows residing
The CBP and ICE have a heavy burden to find and deport those illegals, especially felons, in hiding.

Biden's Kid Glove Treatment of Iran Coming Home to Roost As Surface to Air Missile Attack F-16 and U.S. Drone Near Yemen Coast

 

Sadly the terrorist regime of Iran when it comes to no longer supporting terrorist like the Houthis has only deaf ears
In a major escalation surface to air missiles launched  against a F-16 and a U.S. Reaper drone on the coast of Yemen appeared
Such brazen attacks  should merit a lethal reply
Either or both locating Houthi leaders and killing them from the sky
Or degrading Houthis’ armories and storage facilities wherever they may be found
Still on the list may well be Iranian antiship missile and  petroleum production or distribution facilities on Iranian grounds
Whatever sanctions against Iran and countries that import Iranian oil that Biden waived
Which probably most likely the Islamist Mullahs’ control of the government saved Should perhaps be put back in place
Clearly assuming Iranians would be reasonable would be merely a time waste
And although our planes and ships have destroyed all missiles while enroute to them  in the air
We cannot be certain our naval ships will always destroy a Houthi missile launched against us in anti-ship warfare
If one of our ships is damaged we may not be willing to wait
Before unleashing any forces needed to Iranian nuclear warheads production facilities devastate

If Bryant Were Alive Today There Would Be 2 New Mankind Crucifixion Crosses

 

William Jennings Bryan ended his anti-gold speech with “Thou shall not crucify mankind on a cross of gold”
In California with its $58 billion deficit taxpayers are shaking under expected FTB attacks on their billfolds
Californians are being deluged with the fiscal winds of a new perfect storm
Business corporate headquarters and high income taxpayers fleeing the state, causing our tax  base to be tattered and shorn
Highest gasoline costs in the nation, highest income tax and 9^th highest sales taxes and an anti-business regulatory environment to choke a Clydesdale Horse
While Newsom and the super majority Blues pursue yet another fiscally damaging course
California shells out $22,821,903,942 in goods and services to illegal aliens and is proposing to add illlegals to Cal’s Medical for another $2 Billion cost
While Newsom submits a request for $39.6 Billion for disaster relief for the homes and businesses in the wildfires damaged or lost
Californians deserve federal help even if Newsom’s failure to build Proposition mandated reservoirs is partially to blame
Feds’ response should be to reduce aid amount by money spent on illegals to the increase in our national debt contain
If Bryant were alive to today in California there would be 2 new crucifixion crosses to add tp the gold
The escalating costs in the billions of the Bullet Train and the funds spent on illegals that empty our taxpayers’ billfolds

Accusations Fly Between Trump and Maine Governor Who Vows to Fight Trump's Ban of Transgender Males Competing in Women's Sports and Sharing Locker Rooms

 

Trump held a luncheon meeting and invited the governors of all 50 states
And after the attendees had finished the meals on their plates
Trump announced his executive order that prohibited federal funding to states which allowed transgender males to compete in women’s sports and female locker rooms share
Knowing that Maine’s governor had vowed to reject his executive order asked inf he Maine governor was there
She announced that she was and would follow federal and state law
Trump interrupted to state his executive order was federal law and her disobeyance was flawed
Worse he reminded her that an overwhelming majority of voters in Maine
Wanted male transgenders competing in women’s sports and in locker rooms to refrain
She defiantly responded that she would “see you in court”
Prompting a Trump dismissal that her efforts would be wasted and she would come up short
Maine’s governor is so infected with TDS Stage 4
That she thinks both the will of her voters and federal she can ignore

You have to feel sorry for the citizens of Maine

As they cannot sell enough potatoes if federal funding for schools they can no longer retain

The current governor is term limited and cannot in 2026 run

But If 35% of the voters sign a recall petition and a majority vote to recall her anti-Trump blocks are done

Believing the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Was Too Focused on WOKE and DEI Trump Replaced Him With Air Force Lt. General Dan "Rasin" Caine Who Destoryed ISIS In a Matter of a Few Weeksced toopinn "Raisin" Caine Who Destroyed ISIS in a Few Weekstoo

 

Although tradition often results in that the Chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff  when an Administration changes does not leaver
Trump and Hegseth both felt a focus on Woke when we needed to focus on making our military a stronger warrior class to achieve
Decided that the current Joint Chiefs of Staff a 4 star General former  fighter pilot of the Air Force
Was spending too much time and attention instead of building a warrior class was following a WOKE and DEI course
So Trump after thanking him for his years of service fired 4 Star Air Force General CQ Brown
And replaced him with Air Force  Lt. General Dan  “Raisin” Caine who wiped in a few weeks ISIS from the ground
With 2800 hours in a F-16 and 100 hours in combat a General who from combat does not shy
And knows to a tee that a strong military deters war so fewer military personnel and civilians will die
The Pentagon already put on notice that waste and abuse is in DOGE target sights
Is probably scrambling to jetson WOKE and DEI convincing Hegseth and Trump the military is focused to deter and win any fight
In a culture of $1500 coffee cups and $150 grand soap dispensers DOGE’s intrusion is a breath of fresh air
With future money to be spent on military pay and weapons systems and the WOKE and DEI cupboards emptied bare

Crowley and Bass in a Snit Fit Of Who Is To Blame as Bass Fires Crowley

 

Karen Bass was once a rising star among the Blues
Many were believing a Presidential or Gubernatorial bid in 2026 would ensue
She passed the DEI gender requirement test
As Mayor of the 2^nd largest city DEI goals in programs she stressed
In 2024  $300,154.69 and $11,724.71 in benefits she earned
A healthy pay check for someone MIA as the Palisades and Altadena burned.
A firm supporter of DEI goal in all agencies including the LAFD
n top positions women who met the gender and LBGTQ tests you will see
Kristine Larson,  a black lesbian, Chief of Diversity with $307,000 in pay
Infamous for blaming male victims if women firefighters did not have strength to carry them from a fire away
Kristina Kepner, lesbian Assistant Fire Chief $264,468 in pay
Kristine Crowley, fired Lesbian Head of the LAFD, who pushed DEI big time from her first day
She passed the firefighters’ exam in 1998 ranking in top 50 of 16,000 tests taken
But embroiled in a snit fit with Bass as to who on warnings and occurrence of the fires was mistaken
Crowley said Bass was warned of extreme fire dangers before the fires and before she left for Ghana to add to her political curriculum vitae
To in 2026 aid her as she onto the list of presidential or gubernatorial  hopefuls she makes her way
Bass eager to point the finger blame
For her absence as the fires broke out to be shamed
Never received advance notice was her claim
And added that Crowley had not completed an after action fire report that that causes and failings contained
So Bass fired Crowley and appointed recently retire Chief Deputy Ronnie Villanueva as interim  LAFD Chief
A veteran of 41 years at the LAFD--wonder if he was passed over for Crowley because he abstained from DEI beliefs
Harris must be both sighing relief as an marred Bass in the 2026 governor’s race would her a whole load of grief

Kash Patel Confirmed 51-49 as FBI Director as McConnel Shifted From Nay Aye

 

The FBI was once the most revered law enforcement agency on this Earth
With its vaunted Crime Lab and its investigative talent keeping us safe from terrorist plots if proved again and again its worth
But under Comey and his top associates it degenerated into a politicized Hell
And under Wray became a bastion of DEI and Woke and on curtailing MAGA supporters it chose to dwell
We will never forget Wray’s FBI labeling parents protesting at school board meetings as domestic terrorists
And planting agents on January 6 to incite protestors and not those engaging in criminal activity to resist
The federal government is becoming awash with new sheriffs in town
Replacing the destructive agency heads who were inept DEI picked weaponizing and politicizing clowns
Kash Patel after delaying tactics by Durbin that were based on lies
Was confirmed as the new FBI Director by a vote of 51-49 as another Trump nominee was not denied
Instead of the FBI being weaponized or politicized
“Transparency is essential” and “letting good cops be cops” he vowed to prioritize
If there are any more agents like Strzok and Paige they will soon be fired
A return to its former vaunted law enforcement agency the FBI under Patel will aspire
And any thoughts of retributions must be tossed by Patel onto a pyre
As Americans hope Patel will be one of the best FBI Directors yet hired© 2/20/2025 Michael P. Ridley aka The Alaskanpoet

Bragg's Office Pled Down Gun and Drug Charges to Misdemeanors Resulting in Release As Opposed to Deportation

 

ICE is with all hands on deck putting pedal to the metal to deport illegal alien criminals
But in sanctuary cities like NYC with a Soros like D.A. of Alvin Bragg cooperation with ICE sadly seems too minimal
Mayor Adams announced that ICE would have an office in Rikers Island Jail
Where 85% of the inmates are awaiting trial or trying to raise bail
The rest are serving short sentence waiting to be released
While Bragg and his lackeys dismissing or plea bargaining down never rarely cease
Suspected members of the violent Venezuelan Gang Tren de Aragua Tamaronis-Caldera, and Garcia living in a NYC illegal alien shelter
Were arrested on gun charges and being illegal drug sellers
The D.A.’s office felt it could not prove gang membership so charges were reduced to misdeamenors of possessing an air pistol and imitation firearms
They were released without bail with charges dismissed if by August they have committed no criminal harm
Sadly Adams agreement with ICE must not have been in effect
So they could both be deported and the plea deal and release subject to reject
If D.A.’s do not stop pleaing illegal alien crimes down to lesser charges
And jail officials keep Ignoring detainers to ICE’s mandate to deport will be blocked and hundreds more illegal alien criminals will become at large

In Another Win for DOGE Trump Has Signed an Executive Order Banning the Production of Pennies

 

Trump has become the master of the pen stroke
In a second or two practices and policies  that lack common sense are revoked
In these needed actions to save money, insure safety or improve lives’ quality
Well executive actions beneficial intentions have some collateral damage fatalities
Trump signed an executive order eliminating further production of pennies due to costs to produce
Almost 4 cents for a cent of value which is the type of inefficiency DOGE is hellbent on trying to reduce
If costs are by sellers are rounded up or down to the nearest nickel it is a tossup on whether buyers or sellers save the cents to be gained or  lost
Depends on whether the last digit is not “0” or “5” for the costs
But the sales tax law will have to address how the prices are rounded up or down to “0” or “5” when sales taxes are added to the bill
Suspect we will see rounding up as the thirst for more taxes is impossible to kill
While observing that someone is failing by focusing only on the small insignificant details
While ignoring the big picture and being derailed
So the adages: “A Penny for your Thoughts” or “Penny wise and Pound foolish”
Will no longer in our lexicon flourish

Time to complete the Wall with sensors to detect tunnels and walls to destroy financial incentives to come here

 

If we are ever going to stop illegal aliens from illegally entering the border
Causing additional crime, deadly illegal drugs and causing to our social safety nets destructive financial disorder
We have to complete the wall and install sensors across its length to tunnel construction is detected
And with another Trump executive order the magnet to illegals for federal aid be rejected
A wall must be placed around the offices of the DMV’s to prevent drivers’ licenses from being issued especially with automatic voter registration
An enforceable e-verify system to prevent employment of illegals across the nation
A charge on any money orders an illegal wishes to send back to his or her native land
And work permits but not permanent resident status where Americans will not the rigors or pay of certain jobs be able to withstand
For the brightest and the best and expedited work permit and path to permanent resident status
Followed by a path to citizenship after passage of some years and assimilation hiatus
The law must be made crystal clear that a desire to improve one’s economic standing is not grounds for asylum and the right to stay
Will be difficult but if we cannot control our borders and who can become citizens this nation and its prosperity will fade away

Gayle King is an echo chamber propaganda arm of the DNC as in a interview with Delta's CEO claims Trump's firing of FAA personnel was the cause of the Toronto flip overataonthe eco

 

Consistently Biased Systems News Anchor Gayle King once again proved the MSM is the propaganda arm of the DNC
After Biased Chucky Schumer claimed Trump is at fault for the Delta Airline flip over at Toronto  viewers were shocked see
Most were amazed that the passengers with seat belts on and feet in the air and heads pointed down like bats had no fatalities
Blues and MSM were quick to rush to judgment without the black boxes to create their own causation reality
Gayle King was interviewing the CEO of Delta Airlines claiming Trumps firing of FAA personnel contributed to the cause
An echo chamber parroting Schumer’s inanities that CEO Bastian pointed out was flawed
The FAA he said has 60,000 employees and the 200 fired workers had nothing to do with airline safety
In short he viewed King’s and Schumer’s cause remarks as in error and far too hasty
As DOGE following Trump’s marching orders is weeding out waste, fraud and abuse and the mediocracy of DEI
Look for Blues, the MSM and Government Unions to any cuts and firings try to deny
But Musk has made it crystal clear if the national debt is not reduced each and every year
The disaster of bankruptcy of the nation on its safety and prosperity will soon appear
Not sure if Musk was serious as he suggested we return to every American $5,000 from the spending DOGE has cut
260,046,087 Americans 18 and over would receive $5,000 checks if $1,300,230,435,000 were saved but we would still be mired in a $37 Trillion rut

Schumer, Whose Adult Life Is that of a Political Hack, Loses All Credibility When He Becomes an Aviation "Expert" To Blame Trump For the Toronto Tipover

 

The Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
Will be known as the Blue recovery Doomer
After looking like a fool on D.C. steps
Ranting antiTrumpisms that even rabid Blues would want to forget
Launched into a blaming rant that takes the cake
Claiming that Trump was responsible for Delta Airlines Toronto landing mistake
Claiming Trump was not absolved because the plane took off from the U.S.
This hack politician’s only checks have come from being an elected Blue yet thinks he can the cause of tip over assess
A rush to judgment without any examination by aviation experts and examining the black box
Clearly anything from Schumer’s lips will be distorted by his biased partisan pox
He wants us to believe the lack of FAA personnel due to Trump failed to detect a defect
The Reds were smart enough to McConnell’s becoming a majority leader reject
The Blues if they want to rise above a bunch of TDS Stage 4 zombies worshipping gridlock
Should dump Schumer and replace him with a Senator capable of compromise and lowering the amount of debt we are in hock
This poet is not an aviation expert but knows strong gusts of wind are powerful force
And very likely in Toronto tipped the tail to the left for the gusts to lift the wing and put the plane on a turnover course

Russian American Peace Deal Without Ukraine Looks a Lot Like Munich 1938 Grant of Sudetenland Without Czech Consent

  know that Zelensky's predecessor was a Russophile

With on the corruption phone was a number 1 speed dial

Given the sacrifices the Ukrainian military and civilians have endured

Including those abroad who returned to Ukraine's victory try to insure

Makes me wonder if Trump is right claiming a support of a percentage of only 4

Your comment on is right on on holding elections in time of war

But Lincoln suspended habeas corpus and FDR sent Japanese-Americans including those born here to concentration camps

As a student of history it is troubling that a Russian and American peace deal without Ukraine has a Munich 1938 like stamp

Might be better if like in Afghanistan where the Soviets folded their cards after only 15,000 dead

We increased the Russian death total to cause Russia to have to mobilize its reserves and then try to have the peace process move ahead

Putin may be an autocrat with an iron fist

But a 100-200 thousand more coffins and wailing mothers demands for Russian withdrawal may be hard for him to resist

With Biden and Harris Gone Look For Directors and Staff Members To Blow the Whistle on Illegal Aliens Criminal Behavior and Abuse of Fellow Illegals at Shelters

 

During the Biden/Harris administration with its 24/7 “the border is secure lies”
In Blue States any criminal behavior by illegal aliens was sugar coated or denied
Now that a new President with new DOJ and ICE sheriffs in town
Directors and staff workers in illegal alien shelters are speaking out no longer fearing career ending putdowns
For example Jon Fetherson, the director of an illegal alien shelter in Marlborough,
Claimed the such shelters are breeding grounds for criminal activity unchecked as it grows
Personally attacked after confronting a Haitian illegal for raping his minor daughter so many times her pregnancy started to show
One would think illegals facing potential deportation if they committed crimes
Would try to while in a shelter leave their criminal behavior behind
But in Massachusetts not the case where shelters reported 319 serious incidents in a year
To no one’s surprise the Haitian illegal was not arrested but sent by Lyft to another shelter so illegals deportation would not fear
ICE, despite sanctuary cities who have instructed their police to not with ICE assist or cooperate, is a on deporting violent criminals role
Leaving little doubt that in deporting gang members and felons they will achieve its goal

Circuit Court in Missouri Nails Biden's Student Loan Forgiveness Coffin Shut

 

Highly unlikely that our mentally impaired former President Joe Biden was much of a history student
But his shadow government of wife, aides and advisers clearly to a study of Boss Tweed, Mayor Daly and Rome had much time spent
Whereas Roman Caesars curried public favor with free bread and gladiator contests
And Daly and Tweed disbursed political jobs and voting day cash to votes to opponents arrest
Biden was given the easy task to forgive student loans to endear himself with the youth vote
Despite due to student loans colleges were given blank tuition checks and created courses that leading to a paying job was remote
The millions of students in past years who paid off their student debt were outraged As were Red governors who clearly saw through the reality of vote buying waged
And fought the student loan bailouts in the courts tooth and nail
But Biden’s shadow government was pedal to the metal to their wishes prevail
And by hook and by crook was able to escape some adverse court judgments
Until now when a circuit in Missouri with a scathing judgment would Biden’s goal of loan forgiveness prevent
So student debt which is nondischargeable in bankruptcy will have to be repaid
Tragically too many of the degrees were useless in the real world so the graduates’ dreams of prosperous or cushy jobs were waylaid
Further evidence that Biden will go down as the worst president in our history
Not mentally or physically fit for the job with his policies lamely justified with pure sophistry

When the Temperature Hits 0 Degrees Being a Green Warrior Is Political Suicide As Hochul Approves Natural Gas Pipeline Expansion

 

It is easy to be a Green Warrior, ignoring the fact that China and India are building coal fired power plants at a rapid pace
And the coal emissions are not confined to their nation’s boundaries but travel all over the place
When temperatures are moderate, not requiring air conditioners or furnaces to run 24/7 at max power
So you are not covered with sweat in the summer or conversely in the winter too cold to exit a warm shower
Cuomo was a green warrior and worse shut down a Hudson River nuclear power plant
Hochul readily picked up the gauntlet to escalate New York’s war on fossil fuels rants
Banning gas powered heating and gas powered stoves on new construction
Pushing homeowners and businesses to use electric power for heat and to eat which if obtained through renewable sources would end climate change destruction
With temperatures near zero and the power grid not able to generate enough juice
To warm structures so the inhabitants were not exposed to freezing abuse
Hochul seeing the ice forming on the walls was forced to eat crow
And finally approve expansion of a critical 400+mile gas pipeline so more natural gas would flow
May be too little and too late
Even if not deadly, residents will suffer a being cold and miserable fate
And if the summer is one of high temps and high humidity residents cursing Hochul will fear
That in large areas of New York, power black outs or brown outs will appear
Hopefully voters with memories of their miseries will not be too short
And voting Red as opposed to Blues will her second term abort

Ragin' Cajun Urges Blues To End Meltdown Over Trump DOGE Agenda and Play Possum Till It Ends

 

As Blues are melting down and urging followers to take to the streets
Blowing the dog whistles not of peaceful protest but violence to the Trump agenda defeat
Fired federal workers who probably were mere dead weight
Are showing anxiety over being discharged as their unexpected fate
Claiming to the MSM that they are being thrown out into the street
With no more salary to ends of necessities of life meet
Ignoring the fact that their discharge is coming with 8 month’s severance pay
Hopefully some of them formerly on the federal payroll have some skills to the length of unemployment allay
With each new news item that DOGE has discovered more billions of waste
The meltdown panicked frenzy of the Blues will be perceived as acting in too much haste
Sadly the Blue Swamp Fox political adviser is touting their way out of the DOGE installed distress of cutting spending ways
James Carville, the “Ragin Cajun” is advising Blues to  take a deep breath and possum play
Reds hope he is wrong that the tide for MAGA will soon turn
And the country will to burning money it does not have return
But each billion DOGE the taxpayers save
Duly noted will send the Blues into a political grave

Leftist Blues Intent on Destroying Our History Are Proposing a New State Flag That Will Remove Washington From It

 

Washington is known as the “Evergreen State” which minimizes what the state has become
An “EverWoke State” which was infamous for its 23 day Floyd death inspired CHOP which attracted a host of scum
Blue Governor with Blues in control of State House and Senate but nearer supermajority to ape California’s Banana Republic rule
Until then the Blues in the Legislature are on a history rewriting mode that makes them look like fools
  On this Presidents’ Day Weekend when we honor Lincoln and Washington, our first president
The legislature is moving forward in a new state flag that will the image of Washington be eliminated and to the trash bin sent
A commission will design a flag that represents the state’s “shared history, resources and diverse cultural communities”
That without Washington will diminish and distort our Revolutionary War realities
Without a George Washington the Revolutionary War would have been lost
The weak and inept Continental Congress would never be able get the colonies to contribute to the cost
Redesigning the flag is fine but to remove our Founding Father is just like the  mobs who teared down or defaced the statues of Washington, Jefferson, Key  and Grant,
Ignorant anarchists and Antifa pawns with an intolerant leftist slant

Instead of Resisting, Michelle King Did What Bureaucrats Should Do When They Disagree With Presidential Policies--Resign

 

Michelle King, a federal employee for 30 years and newly appointed acting head of the SSA,
Suddenly resigned after DOGE officials probably in disbelief that the SSA records show 20 million Americans over the age of 100 able to wake up each day
Arrived with laptops and briefcases in hand seeking confidential records  at the offices of SSA
Like all bureaucrats her initial response was to delay or perhaps tell them to go away
When that tactic failed she fell on her bureaucratic sword and resigned
Trying to fight Trump and his DOGE tailwinds a wise bureaucrat would deign
Not sure what records the DOGE personnel sought
Could be disability payments when the recipient’s physical or mental condition entitled the recipient to naught
Or perhaps payments to those of the 20 million now listed as not dead
Or to the millions younger but age eligible for SS also dead as benefits by mail or direct deposit still sped
Do not be surprised that this red warning flag is not just a data entry mistake
But an amount of fraud icing that covers completely the fraud cake
Time will tell but one thing today is certain the DOGE train is speeding down the tracks to uncover fraud, waste and abuse to insure its end betakes

Blues filing cases against DOGE left and right to prevent its efforts to spending cut while much of $4.7 trillion spent has no tracking number to be able to trace expenditures

 

We all know that the Federal Government has for years been spending more than it collects
Which explains why were are facing nearly $37 trillion in our national debt
That amount which is growing each day can only be described as a complete political disgrace
Worse we now find which has to be a crime that $4.7 Trillion has been spent in many cases lacking a Treasury Code which would enable DOGE to the expenditures trace
In years past when Democrats held the Oval Office they railed against waste, fraud and abuse while almost no expenditures cut
But when Trump and DOGE are cutting billions in fraud, waste and abuse Blues are filing court cases to insure their efforts are open-and-shut
What the Blues clearly fail to understand as the intelligence and feelings of Americans they dismiss
Is that Americans when it comes fed spending any fraud, abuse and waste they want the government to resist
Trump has the tail winds in favor of his policies moving his agenda forward at near hyper speed
While the Blues attempt to resist face CAT 5 head winds to their defeats now and in 2026 lead

Government Ineptness Off the Chart As Social Security Database Shows 20,000,000 Americans Over the Age of 100 Alives cia

 

Americans are obsessed with living longer are turning to diet, exercise, and tobacco and excessive drinking deign
Buying all manner of vitamins and minerals, herbal supplements and creams to cause the symbols of aging to wane
For those who enjoy steaks and fine wines but had to forego to longer life claim
And had to spend hours in the gym lifting weights and to treadmills chained
To the joy of couch potatoes every where
DOGE has found the secret of longer lives it now shares
Be listed on the Social Security Administration’s data base
Where the chance of dying is too many times erased
The Census Bureau shows that 80,000 centenarians are alive today
But the Social Security Database shows 20,000,000 over a 100 waking up each day
Clearly most of the 20 million are not alive but dead
But how many benefit checks to the nonliving are in the mail or electronically monthly sped?
The number is not yet known but we should expect it to be high
As in just a few months the Treasury Department has recovered $31 million in payments that should have been denied
If the amount of fraudulent checks issued under the 3 COVID-19 stimulus checks $3.6 billion is a guide
The number of benefit checks to dead recipients once DOGE finishes will also be on the billions high side
While most Americans are overjoyed for the millions of  waste and fraud DOGE is uncovering
Other than attacking Musk as an unelected official, Blues are sweating in the corners cowering

Breenan Ridiculed For Claiming Free Speech Was Weaponized in Nazi Germany To Cause the Holocaust

 

Margaret Brennan a veteran of the Consistently Biased Systems, CBS  
Has a record of interviews and covering Earth shattering events that should most viewers impress
So it should come as a great surprise that when she delves into history to support an argument
Any digging into the past to justify her conclusions seems to out the window be quickly sent
Interviewing Vice President Vance on his views that Europe must step up to the defense spending plate
And its growing efforts to curtail free speech it must quickly abate
Prompted Ms. Brennan to justify its free speech increasing curtailment
Since the Nazis weaponized free speech to begin the Holocaust after Jews were to their ghettos sent
She must have been ignorant that there was no free speech in Germany to be found
Other that a few anti-Nazi pamphlets from a small band of dissidents from the Gestapo hiding under ground
Also that antisemitism was flourishing in Germany long before Hitler wrote Mein Kampf and dreamed of Lebensraum and the Final Solution
Martin Luther, published Concerning the Jews and Their Lives in 1543
In an antisemitic rant that while Hitler almost 400 years later writing Mein Kampf would see:
“Let the magistrates burn their synagogues
And let whatever escapes be covered with sand and mud. Let them be forced to work, and if this avails nothing, we will be compelled to expel them like dogs…”
Vance proved that he is articulate, intelligent and able to foil the leftist press
Brennan revealed she is a fool, unprepared and a disgrace to Uncle Walter’s once esteemed CBS

Life Long Legal Immigrant and Blue Member and Mega Blue Fund Raiser, Linda Li, Leaves Democratic Party

 

When it comes to immigrants for those who follow the law the welcome mat rests before a door that is open wide
Seats are open on the Welcome Wagon to contribute to and enjoy the American Dream Ride
Linda Li born in China and lucky to move with her parents to England and legally immigrate with them to the U.S.
Who were smart enough to know that living under the rule of the CCP would mean nothing but a lot of distress
Graduated from Princeton as its only 4 yr class president
For a stint in investment backing then off to the world of Democratic politics went
Never succeeded in her runs for office but soon was a fund raising queen
Millions raised for Blue candidates but not those of the Bernie Sanders mien
Troubled by the party’s shift to trans woke she still raked in dollars for Harris
And after lack of policies and campaigning by celeb performances and endorsements her campaign perished
Like almost every mega donor felt she had been sold a phony bill of goods
That Harris and her radical Blues had not the needs and goals of the middle class understood
She left the Democratic Party which she feels is in the shambles of pushing woke
Which despite the loss of the Senate, Oval Office and the House refuses to revoke
Do not be surprised if this epitome
Of the type of immigrants we need and want to see
Attacks with a vengeance those many Blues attacking DOGE as it uncovers millions of dollars of waste
Of unelected Blue bureaucracies whose only Hold Grail is to spend without accountability taxpayer dollars In great haste

Left Ranting That Trump Is a Threat To Our Democracy Should Read the Constitution and Accept That We Have a Constitutional Republic and Popular Vote Does Not Determine the Winner the Electoral College Does

 

You hit the nail on the head with your "America is not a democracy" claim
Which enabled the left in 2016 to claim that lacking a majority of the popular vote Trump could not reign
Ignorant of the fact that the Constitution requires that winner of Electoral College is the president
Unless there is no winner the determination is to the House of Representatives sent
4 times in our history the president has not won the popular vote
Yet only in 2016 did the Blues assert the need to cross the popular majority moat
We have an Electoral College that the smallest of the states in terms of population have 3 seats
Without such a guarantee we would have never dissolved the Articles of Confederation and forming the United States would have gone down to defeat
Today some states like California, Illinois, and New York are more like Blue one party Banana Republics able to pass leftist goals at will
Causing residents wanting two party government to shiver in autocratic chills
The left is determined to rid itself of Electoral College rule and the campaign to so rid has begun
Instead of winner take all the number award will equal the proportion of the votes won

Blues Ignore Findings By DOGE of Millions of Waste and Fraud To Attack Musk As Not Being Elected

 

Our Constitution provides for 3 independent branches of government
The Legislative which creates the laws, the Executive that enforces and the Judiciary where disputes on the Constitutionality or meaning of the laws are sent
But not mentioned in the Constitution is a 4^th branch the press
Other than by the government in most cases it cannot be suppressed
In our beginnings when the federal government’s personnel and expenditures were miniscule
Very few bureaucrats creating very few regulations to daily lives and businesses rule
In 1937 the first year after the publication of the Federal Register on March,16, 1936, the Federal Register was 3450 pages long
Today it is a record 107,262 pages, which includes 3,248 final rules and regulations to the rule of unelected bureaucrats prolong
2,400,000 federal servants only 1200-1400 of which need to be by the Senate confirmed
Not subject to the will of the voters as rules and regulations in a steady stream churn
The press’ title of the 4^th Branch has been surpassed
 By the never ending not elected bureaucratic masses
Worse the MSM has lost most of it objectivity to become the propaganda arm of the DNC
Still refusing to shed TDS Stage 4 to dump its leftist advocacy
DOGE which will cause the reduction of bureaucrats and their job killing rules
Has been subjected to dog whistle blowing attacks by Blues whose ignoring of fraud and waste reveal them as useless fools
Railing against Musk as the billionaire who was unelected yet blind to the fact
That only less than 1400 bureaucrats need to be confirmed which being elected lacks
Guts their dog whistles against DOGE and Musk who are the national debt attacking
If they are prevented by the Blues from reducing the Blues in 2026 will face a bloodbath shellacking

Truman Sadly Was Mostly Right When He Intoned That Only Crooks Go Into Politics

 Truer words were never spoken even though Truman left office in a penurious state That being a president, senator or even a lowly house member is a path to wealth is beyond debate Insider information to enrich one on stock trades As Pelosi with her husband receives an "A" grade Millions of lobbyist dollars in campaign contributions diverted to hire relatives and gifts With billions in funding at risk the ability to oppose bribes is quickly cast adrift Menendez may not be the head poster child easily passed by Hunter's access to Biden quid pro quo But the gold bars in his closet shows how easily corruption of a senator can grow The Blues are over DOGE's uncovering of waste and fraud melting down Imagine the extent of the meltdown if DOGE starts uncovering the quid pro quo of our leaders in D.C.

A Romantic Poem By the Alaskanpoet May Be the Ideal Valentines' Day Gift

 

On Valentines’ Day when you want to woo your girlfriend or enhance your love of your wife
What gift can you give to your love convey and enjoy a longer life?
Roses stand front and center in the list of gifts to celebrate the day
Such beautiful bouquets to warm a woman’s heart even though the petals soon wilt and into the trash find their way
Gourmet chocolates are probably in second place
Blessed with such a succulent and pleasing taste
But too quickly devoured  and leaving a pound gained as its trace
A dinner at a five star like restaurant with gourmet courses to your table grace
If lucky a photo of the two of you eyeing each other and the courses before grabbing fork or spoon
Which if framed might make the memories of the evening never fade away soon
Perfume is also a likely gift winner
The scent turning heads into spinners
But like the rose petals the scent will fade way
Maybe a diamond necklace or bracelet is the gift that will stay
But not if you live in a city where violent crime in too many cases exists
And the temptation of a felon to pull a gun and rip them off is too hard to resist
So the answer to the question should be an original commissioned romantic poem
Framed and recited over dinner to later be hung in a room at one’s home
The words should bring tranquility and serenity and insure the expression of love never fades away
AA bulwark to keep the winds of dissension, anger and divorce at bay

Vaccination Rates Down and Flu Cases Off the Charts With 13,000 Deahs

 

This season is  proving to be a bad year for the flu according to the CDC
Through October,  24 million illnesses, 310,000 hospitalizations and 13,000 cases ending in fatalities
Public Health Officials were thrilled that cases of COVID-19 and RVC were on a downward trend
But the rise in flu cases and deaths brought any celebrations to a quick premature end Not sure yet whether a deadlier and more contagious strain of the flu is now here
But only 44 % of adults for flu vaccines chose to with their arms bared to the needle appear 
And children whose immunes systems have not grown to in virus attacks be all hands on deck
The percentages for vaccinations dropped from 50 to 45 percent that their parents would elect
Whether the vaccine is more or less able to the flu virus attack and contain
Is not yet known but the lower vaccination rates the more likely that flu epidemics will reign

Trump Signs an Executive Order Banning Transgenders Born as Males From Competing in Females' Sports

 

Every Blue with a daughter or granddaughter playing or trying to play on a school sports team must be silently overjoyed
Especially those Blues lacking a good deal of spine fearful of the wrath that Hakeem Jeffries against those opposing transgenders in females’ sport will employ
When it comes to opposing Reds and Trump, Blues must vote together as one team
Or face committee assignment purgatory from minority dictator Hakeem
Now able to with a straight face proclaim the transgenders are females line
Ignoring the more muscle mass and larger heart and lungs the being a male defines
Trump signing an executive order banning transgenders with a birth certificate that labels them a male from competing in female sports
If a school ignores his order that school is in violation of Title IX and federal funding to that school the funding officials will abort
The NCAA reacted with hyper speed ruling that transgenders could not as females compete
Now the authorities at the state level must ape the NCAA and the end of transgenders with male equipment intact on the field and in the women’s locker rooms will be complete
Riley Gaines who has been attacked and endured all manner of abuse as a Horatio at the sports bridge preventing the transgender barbarians from coming across
Enabling common sense to prevail and hand the transgender fad movement a crippling loss
She deserves all manner of praise and after she turns 25 in April of this year
We should hope she runs for Congress as an intelligent, well versed speaker who would be a counterweight to the leftist inanities that from AOC’s lips usually appear

Stoners' Long Term Use Destroys Memory Functions and Smoking It Leads To Greater Chances of Heart Attacks and Strokes

 

In the U.S. more and states and the District of Columbia have legalized marijuana’s recreational use
Studies are being undertaken to reveal brain damages when stoners chose to abuse
Daily usage attacks the memory functions of the brain
The ability to recall facts to solve problems goes done the drain
With DEI and its mediocracy on its way to the trash can
Lifetime stoners trying to hurdle the “best and the brightest” barriers are going to have difficulty in finding jobs in this land
Add to a lifetime of marijuana use starting in college or earlier in high school
The fact that education today is failing too many who are not learning life coping tools
To find and keep a well-paying to a family support
Instead living paycheck to paycheck going into debt and coming up short
The news about adverse brain effects is not the end of the gift that keeps on giving
Stoners smoking marijuana have a 25% greater chance or a heart attack and 42% greater chance of a stroke, events which are not helpful to stay living

American Airlines Pilot Calming Pre Flight Speech Before Takeoff To Miami Was Taped and Viewed by 6.5 Million

 

With 2 back to back aircraft disasters in the U.S.
It should come as no surprise that passengers boarding are undergoing a lot of anxiety stress
Which is probably not soothed by the flight attendants memorized list of safety features in the event of a crash
When videos of the collision over the Potomac causing the chopper and the plane to burst into flames as into the river they smashed
Or the video of the medavac Lear Jet diving straight into the ground
Killing all aboard the Lear, injuring 24 on the ground and massive fires spreading all around
The American Airlines pilot must sensed the stress of the passengers wondering why they were on this flight
Nerves causing shaking, blood pressure rising and pulse rate climbing out sight
Here’s what the non-poet pilot said to trying to the anxiety calm
That passengers would believe they were in good hands and free from deadly harm
“[You] may be fearful about flying, and that's certainly understandable, but just please know that my first officer and our flight attendants and myself place your safety and the responsibility of carrying you to Miami, to your families, your vacations, your gates, at the highest level. I have no higher calling than carefully, professionally transporting you today so with that, relax and enjoy the beautiful evening that we get to fly in. We'll begin shortly [and] welcome aboard”
The normal chatter of passengers ignoring the normal safety instructions was not heard
As passengers listened intently to the pilot’s sincere calming words
A flight attendant taped on TikTok the pilot’s speech
That 6.5 million TikTok viewers it reached

Jordan Day Wearing Sweets Slammed by Social Media Fashion Police For Denigrating the Sport

 

In the business world and in the political world to a large extent
Mark Twain’s quote “Clothes make the man” explains why to improve others’ perception more money on clothes is spent
In the political arena Senator Fetterman discards the rule except on the Senate Floor
Where he needs to wear coat and tie to get the sergeant at arms or doorkeeper to open the door
In professional sports there are clothing rules primarily linked to sponsors edicts and in golf played on elite country clubs the rules that for members exist
Why during a PGA event no matter how hot or humid the temperature is comfortable shorts the golfers must resist?
Today at Pebble Beach Jordan Day was dressed in gray sweats over a white T-shirt
Prompting howls of displeasure on social media that the proper respect for professional golf he had hurt
Jordan finished tied for 8^th so his apparent casual garb did not adversely affect his play to earn $368,500 from the players’ purse
The PGA is on a crusade to entice more players to take up the game which is hindered by the pros subject to the fashion police curse

Punxsutawney Phil Saw His Shadow Predicting 6 More Weeks of Winter on the 11 Anniversary of Mayor di Blasio Dropping Staten Island Chuck and Killing the Weathermarmot Mareb opping i ith e more

 

Today is Groundhog Day when Punxsutawney Phil appears from the ground to predict
When winter will end and humans suffering the winter chills will be warmed when the first day of Spring hits
Today before a raucous crowd of locals and tourists at Pennsylvania’s Gobbler's Knob
He saw his shadow on the ground so spring 6 weeks early residents will be robbed
He has become such a tourist attraction that other locals ape the event
With their own named ground hogs to predict when the first of spring to their locale will be sent
Staten Island Chuck: Lives in the Staten Island Zoo in New York City. Chuck is known for his accuracy, but his behavior can be unpredictable. 
General Beauregard Lee: Georgia's official weather prognosticator, Lee lives in Weathering Heights, a groundhog-sized mansion in Jackson, Georgia. 
Buckeye Chuck: Located in Marion, Ohio.
Flatiron Freddy: A stuffed groundhog in Boulder, Colorado. Freddy is carried to the Chautauqua Ranger Station by his handlers to predict the weather. 
Jimmy the Groundhog: Located in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. 
Stormy Marmot: One of the few famous groundhogs west of the Mississippi. 
Woodstock Willie: Located in Woodstock, Illinois. 
Potomac Phil: Located in Washington, DC.
In this cast of Weathermarmots who predict when spring will arrive
There was one of great fame and notoriety who sadly is no longer alive
Bill di Blasio, probably the worst and most despised ever New York City Mayor
In an attempt bolster his sinking ratings on Ground Hog Day 2014 lifted Charlotte in the role of Staten Island Chuck into the air
To better see if her shadow on the ground was there
Holding her with a weak grip
Dropping out of di Blasio’s hands she slipped
Falling hard to the ground and a week later from injuries her heart quit
Other mayors have ruined their cities like di Blasio but only one can claim
He killed New York City’s tourist attraction Staten Island Chuck to his lasting shame

101 Freeway Blocked by Hundreds of Misguided Leftists Protesting Deportation of Illegal Aliens

 

Americans who have lost loved ones due to illegal alien felons are breathing a sigh of relief
In the first week ICE has been arresting over 7,000 illegal alien felons though not soon enough to prevent parents of murdered kids unbearable grief
One of the many reasons that Trump won is that Americans were sick of open borders and did not feel safe with illegal aliens’ crime
Were outraged during the Biden Harris years of lies that the border was secure time after time
Even among the most liberal Blues finding someone who does not want to deport illegal alien violent felons is very rare
Ice’s deportation raids of violent felons are for almost all of us a needed breath of fresh air
But in Blue State California where Gruesome Newsom with his super gel
Wants to Trump proof and ICE proof deportation of illegals, residents will be exposed to a never ending Hell
On Sunday morning hundreds of protestors waving Mexican flags and signs claiming “No human is illegal on stolen land”
Shut down the highly congested 101 Freeway on both lanes in a vain effort to the deportations
countermand
Rather that deport illegals when the border is not secure with an incomplete wall
Defense Secretary Hegseth is calling to send illegals arrested to Gitmo to the surge and reentries really stall
Trump has declared a National Emergency which should give states  the right to call out their National Guard to in border and citizens’ security aid
While ICE should be using social media to reach home nations to show the incarceration that awaits to reduce the parade

Forget Compromise As Blues Elect Ken Martin, Who Has Claimed Trump Should Be Charged With Treason, As the Head of the DNC

 

If you thought that the Blues’ loss of the White House and Senate and the failure to the House majority regain
Might have caused some introspection on their losses and the tired race card, abortion one trick pony card, and misogynist card now deign
Think again as Blues have elected as their new head of the DNC a rabid political hack
Ken Martin, head of the Minnesota Blues who in one of his more vitriolic Trump attacks
Claimed that Trump should be charged with treason which carries with it the penalty of death
A most effective way of ending any chance of compromise and about as rational as a tweeker on meth
Americans are tired of the vitriol and civility lack
They want this nation to be on the solutions benefiting all track
Trump is on a role despite facing some potential bumps in the road
More importantly unlike most politicians who vow for votes but after election the vows unload
Is doing what he promised the voters if elected he would do
If Martin continues in the rut of attacking those who voted for Trump he will be dining on crow stew
Already in the Potomac collision we see that DEI kills
The passed Laken Riley Act which all parents should applaud was the first passed bill
But even on something so basic as the safety of our kids
156 Blues voted Nay on allowing us to violent illegal felons to from the nation rid
After months in captivity surpassing the time the American hostages in the Tehran Embassy spent
Trump’s involvement led to a ceasefire and American hostages beginning to  home be sent
For the sake of the nation and for the Blues we hope Martin acquires some reason
And discards and retracts any claims of Trump treason

Ping Pong Diplomacy Led to Normalizing Relations Between China and the U.S. and the Game Has Kept 92 Year Old Ivan Pedley Alive and Well

 

China opened its doors to the Western World and the U.S. with the diplomacy of ping pong
A sport in which they excelled at a time when in relations between China and the U.S. diplomacy seemed not to belong
A chance meeting between U.S. Table Tennis player Glenn Cowan and Chinese player Zhuang Zedong at the World Table Tennis Championships in Japan in 1971 took place
On the bus the two exchanged gifts as athletes the failure to do so would bring both in the sporting world disgrace
Which was quickly followed by an invitation for the U.S. Table Team to visit China between the two teams matches play
An example of the power of sports to defuse the desire of warring parties to try to each other slay
Leading to President Nixon’s historic visit to China in 1972
Opening the door to normalizing relations between the 2
Sadly those early seeds of defusing hostilities between the 2 has not born fruit
As China has threatened Taiwan, engaged in an arms race and trade practices that were unfair and continued to our IP loot
While ping pong diplomacy did not survive for long
As a tool to extend life expectancy it still belongs
Ivan Pedley, a 92 year old retired toolmaker, plays ping pong twice a week
That he believes is the secret to a long life being able to seek

ICE Deporting the Low Hanging Fruit of Violent Criminal Illegals; Time to Plan What We Do with the Millions of Illegals Who Are Gainfully Employed and the Border Is Secure From Crossings?

 

The Biden shackles on ICE have been removed and the arrests of illegal criminals are proceeding at hyper speed
7,400 violent illegals Have been arrested in a week to be deported or sent to Gitmo which for safety we need
We have not yet seen the active resistance, hindering, or concealment from sanctuary cities mayors yet
As the ICE Director threatens arrest of such mayors which should cause them to taking such actions forget
But a new attempt to frustrate ICE’s duties to remove illegals from this nation
Has arisen—the ability of illegals to change their names to avoid arrest and deportation
An illegal may be able to legally change his or her name
But the fingerprints will remain the same
Instead of protecting the criminal element of illegals that reside within our borders
Mayors ought to be compiling data to show that mass removal of illegals as employees will bring economic chaos and disorder
The plan ought to be as long as an illegal is employed in a critical job that cannot with American citizens be filled, permanent resident status he or she can obtain
But if the illegal cannot support him or herself and needs welfare the right to deport will reign

A Chinese Banquet To Enjoy the Year of the Snake at Playport Mobile Home Park

 

 

Chinese Year of the Snake Banquet at Playport

 

Christianity vilifies the serpent or the snake whose apple biting tempting Eve
Caused God to force Adam and Eve to the Garden of Eden Leave
But the Chinese view the Year of the snake as a time of rebirth and to achieve
Cannot think of a better way to achieve the good times than to a Chinese banquet receive
For the efforts of Playport’s Social Committee we should our hands or chopsticks clap
And after sating ourselves with tasty Chinese cuisine like a good reptile retire for a nap
Each bite was a bite to savor
Our taste buds drenched in flavor
A time to break the coffee chains and sip tea
Proof positive that of all mobile home parks Playport is the place to be
Politics in Playport is frowned upon but the Year of the Snake’s last trait I must tell
Too many Blues are ranting the claim that Trump wants to be king to the public they want to sell
Ignoring the fact Trump took a bullet for democracy which if he had not turned his head we would be hearing funeral bells
It is regality, king or queen like, which if it slithers out of D.C. Trump is well aware that with the public, it will not fit well
A great kickoff to Super Bowl LIX so once again
A great thanks to our Social Committee whose great cuisine events never seem to end
