Rewriting History

 

  People have been subject to the proverbial wool being pulled over their eyes for so long that the truth now seems nonexistent.


Let’s play a game.


If I handed you an egg, then asked you tell me what your thoughts are, you would likely have a paragraph or two as an answer. Descriptive words could include cold, white, ovoid shaped, and no odor.


Should you drop that egg on the ground, I dare say your description might be totally different. Now words such as gooey, slimy, room temperature, fragile, odiferous, kind of clear and yellow in color, and fragile, would change the narrative.


Still, another time and yet another egg would probably result in a description altogether different of cracked with something firm inside, chilly, white in color – both inside and out, as well as semi-fragile.


All those scenarios are both correct and incorrect depending on who is looking at a specific egg, and the condition in which it was given to you. Raw, uncooked, refrigerated, boiled, are all factors in what you experienced with the egg, as well as any bias you incorporate therein.


Personally, I like eggs. A professional TV chef named Guy Fieri, who has seemingly countless shows about food, hates eggs, in any way, shape, or form. I would wager Mr. Fieri would vomit coat hangers if he was included in our little game. But I digress.


As is evidenced, we can all look at something – real or imaginary – and contrive our own description. And just because it is what you see and feel does not equate to what others see and feel.


The former Soviet Union was comprised of varying nations divided up into half-countries following World War II. That horrific war changed so much of the world and its views, for better or worse, with the effects still being felt 80-years later.


Controlled by communist dictators, the Soviet Union, along with its many unwilling inhabitants, was summarily ruled with an iron fist. In fact, it was so strict that fences were erected around its satellite nations to prevent residents for leaving.


To aid teaching their Neo-history to their school children, old texts, as well as period photos were incorporated into their modern versions of Soviet history books, museums, even songs.


Unfortunately, the Soviet rulers, along with history censors, were especially busy “modifying” their centuries of existence prior to their border realignment following the war. To accomplish this re-write the censors quietly airbrushed historical figures and places from photographs, plus associated captions in addition to text from old books, all to be forever lost.


This history rewrite effectively modified the truth about not only their past, but their future, too.


Something similar is being attempted throughout most of the world with newly enthroned dictators, and Leftist premiers and presidents, gleefully altering their own kingdoms with similar revisionist histories.


Every nation is subject to this alteration of past times for the benefit of creating a narrative that will be beneficial to the new comers that will also assist the dictators maintain control of their new domains.


And yes, the United States is not exempt. An earnest effort to modify and rewrite our history has been in the works for decades.


Using the public school system, in conjunction with prominent colleges and universities, the Leftist-infiltrated “education” system has been incorporating revised text books plus totally contrived lesson plans for use in altering the minds and hearts of many Americans.


Beginning decades ago, those elementary lessons were changed to blame historic figures and their notable historic accomplishments for each and every ill that exists in the modern world.


Citing Christopher Columbus for invading North America, thereby bringing ‘white man’s disease” to kill American Indians, began the crusade to erase our history. Such outright lies are now politely referred to as “propaganda,” except by the claimant using terms such as “the truth.”


Since that ‘dip of the toe in the water’ to test for temperature, it was discovered Americans were eager for a change – real or imagined.


Today, causes of everything from diseases to floods, hurricanes to forest fires, have been attributed to not only America and American inhabitants, but “white Americans,” specifically.


With a lack of candor, a direct line was drawn from “racist America” to ills of foreign nations, all taught in schools as an umbrella to multiculturalism. Getting the populace to believe their woes were attributable to racism, a tribalisitic theme was begun in elementary schools, and eventually continued through the college level.


Dividing our nation was approaching completeness when indignant underachievers found new careers as professional race hustlers. Penning fictitious books, articles, making movies, and sniffing out television cameras plus microphones, only encouraged these phonies to continue their quest toward division.


Integrating this giant misdirection of facts into daily life of all Americans, a confidence game called “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion,” abbreviated as DEI, gave this scam legs for a continued immersion long after scholastic times, thus ensuring a reinforced method of brainwashing, along with division.


Breaking down each DEI letter would take days, but suffice it to say, they are not what they appear to mean to those consumers of new, trendy societal trials. Diversity means hiring based not on knowledge, skills and abilities, but on race, sex, even religion.


Equity is the fun word of this trio that uses measurements from when we begin our professional lives. If you are an engineer, you began your career years prior – while in school – to securing a lucrative position designing and developing everything from sneakers to cars to computers and rockets.


The theory behind equity is that too many straight white folks are already performing in jobs that eager minorities desire. Unfortunately, those yens can’t be quenched without an edge that will allow these wannabes an advantage. Rather than simply firing the seasoned straight white folks, they are expected to serve as tutors to the newcomers. Eventually, though, those newcomers will become bosses and managers without true knowledge, skills, or abilities.


While this may seem fair, under certain circumstances, it is. Designing a wooden pencil or a whistle is not necessarily critical to the world, but in the field of medicine, aeronautics, and research and development, it is.

Pro-DEI Representative Jasmine Crockett


One new loud voice from Congress is from Representative Jasmine Crockett, (D) Texas. She is only one of the proponents of DEI and is losing her mind because of President Trump’s saner policies. She has been making the TV talk show rounds accusing Trump of having a failing cranium. Evidently this champion of filling jobs with under qualified workers has never met former President Joseph Biden.


Several hospitals were overly enthusiastic about hiring personnel as doctors and clinicians via DEI programs to overcome their definition of “racism.” This zealous move toward more “fairness” to those being held back because of perceived racism, sexism, xenophobia, and misogyny fortunately hit the brakes.


And just like in the egg game, reality is in the eye of the beholder; we each see things differently, where all egg experiences are correct while simultaneously being wrong.


Each time, following several surgeries, I never once wondered what race, sex, or religion my doctors and attending nurses were. And to this day, I could also not care less.


But to some underachievers and whiny malcontents, jumping to the front of the proverbial line is critical to justness. It is not.


This exercise is an effort to rewrite history – history for which Americans fought so ardently: the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Prohibiting discrimination, by any other name, became law 61-years ago.


It’s about time we follow the “Rule of Law.”

Race to Nowhere

 

  As the title implies, something is amiss when those words are put together. A race is something in which people usually compete to win during a competition. Those folks could be running, driving, swimming, even knitting, vying to see who will be deemed the winner by finishing first.


Just imagine being a spectator at one of these races – excited to cheer for your favorite competitor only to be disappointed at the pace and scale of the contest itself. To make and keep these rivalries fair while being interesting for the fans, the weakest of competitors are often weeded out prior to the actual race.


Unfortunately, these excisions are not necessarily done with efficiency when talking about race participants in political arenas.


In fair political races, the people are able to go to the polls where they are then permitted to vote for, and oftentimes elect, their favorite candidate competitor. However, that’s not always the case.


With the ‘dumbing-down’ of America over the past few decades, many of the voters have had their brains excised to see, hear, and believe whatever they are told via mass media along with the press.


People have become lazy – too lazy to research their candidates – to make an educated and informed decision as to whether their votes will go to the best in the race. And that is troubling. And with campaigns such as Get Out the Vote, the suggestion is to simply vote without thought or consequence.


With the press lying to the voters regarding everything from obtaining a flu vaccine to casting a ballot for a department store mannequin, those educated and informed decisions literally dissolved right before their eyes.


A lifelong guvment employee – Joseph Robinette Biden – was summarily elected to the lofty position of president in 2020, defeating a one-term presidential rival Donald J. Trump, in an electoral race that appeared to be rigged in favor of Biden.


Using sleazy tactics like lying, fabricating facts, distorting the truth, besides filing one lawsuit after another to have rival Trump removed from the ballot, or incarcerated for trumped-up charges, Biden slid into office to quickly unwind all noble accomplishments implemented by President Trump.


This was clearly a Democrat exercise to discipline candidate Trump for defeating his 2016 lame opponent, Hillary R. Clinton. Clinton ran her part of that race from a van, and surrounded by aides toting ropes to keep the common folk far away from Queen Hillary.


Regularly hurried away from public meet-and-greet activities, the commoners were not allowed to approach or speak to Her Highness, thereby isolating her from agog, fawning constituents. Clearly her stellar plan didn’t work as she had hoped since her quest for presidential power failed badly.


It was 2024 when the next and last presidential race was held, and Biden – who plainly demonstrated he was incapable of caring for an avocado, much less a nation in which he begged an estimated 12 million invaders to enter, proved it was time for a change in the Democrat race lineup.


While the fawning press who carried Biden around the world for four years in a sedan chair, realized their favorite race participant was too incompetent to continue through his re-election campaign, the press began scrambling to find a viable replacement for El Jefé Biden.


The obvious choice was his hand-selected, four-year vice president, Kamala Harris. For the record, she was chosen because she met all the qualifications: black and female. No lie.


During her abbreviated presidential run, Harris selected an equally qualified vice presidential candidate for her race, a Tube Man.


In the event you’re unfamiliar to the term Tube Man, you’ve likely seen one outside a barber shop, car dealership, or new restaurant. They’re those inflatable things resembling a flexible, oversized drinking straw. With the benefit of an air pump, they flail and dance, waving their nylon arms to attract attention. They look really goofy, but garner attention.

A Tim Walz impersonator


Minnesota Gubenor Timothy Walz seemed to fill the bill for which Harris was so desperately searching as a quality running mate. Walz made quite an impression on the nation during the St. George Floyd riots in mid-2020. During those riotous weeks, Walz pretended the social misfits, fascists, miscreants, and black racists were expected to exact a form of justice through destruction of municipal and private property.


He further proudly began a very public critique of the Trump-Vance team. Pointing out their shortcomings Walz demonstrated his inability to grasp basic ideas of civility along with making the nation more cohesive.


Needless to say, Walz and Harris soon discovered the unemployment line following their miserable defeat during their historic run. Of course, they both set out to discredit and immediately blame the voting populace for their pathetic showing.


Not unlike a similar tirade from St. Hillary, Stacey Abrams, plus Al Gore, who all lost their political bids, the Harris/Walz dream team began their ‘We lost because of [you fill in the blank] tour.’


Not being their fault that they were smarter than those who failed to vote for them, Harris and Walz were quick to point out their incredible intellect while attempting to convey their message to such a stupid voting bloc.


In fact, Walz just complained about our 47th president, Donald Trump, who is ardently returning America back to a sense of normalcy. Walz, carping that China – the nation that enjoys slave labor from its Uygur population, as well as a criticism from a 2025 UN rights report – is his personal favorite example of a nation to be held up as a model for the United States.


Not to be outdone, California Gubenor Gavin Newsom has been nudging his own way into the 2028 Presidential Elections, as he likely sees an opening. Along with Newsom are failed Gubenors JB Pritzker, Kathy Hochul, Gretchen Whitmer, as well as Hillary Clinton, plus the aforementioned Kamala Harris along with Tube Man. Alas.


Perpetually wondering why they are not reaching the political acme they so desire, they all fail to realize that the voters are not necessarily as stupid as this gaggle of geniuses have come to believe.


With college campus officials turning blind eyes to movements to exterminate the entire Jewish race, black-clad fascists burning cities and wreaking havoc in city streets, besides organized and well-funded terroristic activities being apparently sanctioned by these Democrats, has driven a giant wedge between the sane and insane.


Continually parading about television cameras, these anti-American gladiators have been willingly joined by state and federal congress clowns and senators, alike, all in an attempt to appear superior to conservatives and pro-Trump supporters. Using slurs while sporting smirks and grimaces, these malcontents couldn’t to more damage if they tried.


Remember that giant wedge? That is the result of the infamous “Rule of law” we’ve nauseatingly heard about for years from the self-righteous Dems. To be exact, created, out of whole cloth, sanctuary cities were born as a way to allow – rather encourage – foreigners unfettered access to our once-sovereign nation.


Way back when, the world was stricken with something called the COVID-19 flu. That disease was defined and re-defined repeatedly. If American citizens didn’t cover their faces with masks, stand six-feet apart, or acquire vaccinations, they were subject to arrest. Period.


Military personnel as well as police and other first responders were subject to immediate termination if they failed to follow rules about getting “the shot.”


Fortunately, the 12,000,000 illegal immigrant invaders were not subject to those same rules. Neither were they vaccinated for other diseases and medical issues children attending schools were forced to get. Hardly the rule of law that suddenly didn’t apply to a favored status class of people.


Hiding behind the cloak of fairness, the aforementioned gubenors and congress clowns have been continually helping our illegal alien invaders literally escape justice, while promoting the value those lawbreakers bring to our country.


There you have it. After years of ignoring you and your pleas to help our populace, those same greasy critters who have been pooping in your hat are now readying for a run in the 2028 presidential race. And now they need and want your vote.


They have been and continue to feign deafness when you speak. It’s high time Newsom, Pritzker, Hochul, Whitmer, Hillary Clinton, Walz, and Harris find real jobs in the private sector, thus ending their perpetual race to nowhere.


They’ll be really, really surprised how tough it is to work for a living rather than simply lying and pandering.

Thanks for the Mayhem

 

  It’s been two weeks, and we've seen two targeted attacks on Jewish people on United States of America soil.


Now seems like a terrific time to dig into this travesty on American citizens by naysayers, to reveal the unvarnished truth.


Since the 2020 announcement Joseph Robinette Biden was going to run against then-President Donald J. Trump, the lies began against President Trump and his supporters. But those lies extended far beyond the reaches of civil society with total fabrications for then-Senator Biden.


Biden needed a presidential win to continue the upheaval of America by radicals. Those radicals are not hidden from plain sight and subsequent scrutiny by the media, rather they are acting overtly while defying the sanctity of human life, as well as courtesy.


Let’s begin by defining the word “terrorism.”


The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language defines terrorism thusly:

  • 1.) The use of violence or the threat of violence, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political goals.

  • 2.) The act of terrorizing, or state of being terrorized, a mode of government by terror or intimidation.

  • 3.) The practice of coercing governments to accede to political demands by committing violence on civilian targets; any similar use of violence to achieve goals.


That definition pretty well sums up horrendous actions that were directed by dangerous wackos inside the borders of the United States of America.



This is where I’m supposed to use those weaselly lawyer words such as alleged, supposed, accused, and charged, while referring to the suspects in both these instances. Here’s a free clue from me: in today’s world, everyone – EVERYONE – has a cellular telephone with a built-in camera.



Many of those cellphone users spend most of their lives recording daily goings-on with those phones. Those recordings are available to use as evidence in trials. I say, “Let’s employ that video evidence for convictions.”



A week ago, two Israeli Embassy employees stationed in the United States were allegedly shot to death by a Chicago, Illinois, nutjob who hated Jews. Period. This young couple was just beginning their lives together but were summarily allegedly murdered by some sub-human who confessed to the killings at the scene.



Yesterday, another senseless attack was conducted against peaceful marchers who were calling awareness to Palestine’s keeping Jewish citizens as hostages. This sick onslaught of First Amendment practitioners was done with a makeshift flamethrower, as well as Molotov cocktails. As of this writing, eight Israeli supporters have been injured, with no reports of deaths, yet.



The first attack occurred in Washington, DC, while the second took place in Boulder, Colorado, both of which, for the record, are sanctuary jurisdictions. This point is extremely important in as much as one of these alleged, supposed, accused, and charged attackers entered our nation under the lenient Biden administration years.



With both of these assailants – allegedly – screaming for a “Free Palestine!” both clearly were uninformed enough to not realize Palestine was already “free” then, and still remains “free.” Awkward, at best, since Palestine’s free elections should have been a clue.



All the while, people have warned the world that America’s foolish open borders policy was doing nothing except inviting trouble – trouble in the form of “getaways” who intentionally subverted detection by American authorities. We now have an estimated 2,000,000 getaways hiding in the bowels of our nation.


Alejandro Mayorkas caught telling yet another lie
With the 2024 re-election of Donald Trump, the dregs of society who illegally slithered into our sovereign nation have been the subject of round-ups and deportation. This is important because, after years of lies by Alejandro Mayorkas, countless mayors, overly generous governors, and President Biden himself, have been denying any damage was being done in the name of mercy.



But the question should be mercy for whom? Realizing most of these murderous attackers are quick to add they are seeking a “better life,” “freedom,” and “financial security,” they are further filled with hate and retribution.



Feeling as though America is the land of ‘milk and honey,’ denying the influx of mentally bent illegal so-called desperate immigrants' entry is often viewed as inhumane, even punitive, by the do-gooders on the Left. The quick way to level the playing field is to simply grant everyone a seat at the proverbial dinner table.



In order to aid these envisioned downtrodden, the over-enthusiastic influx of illegal aliens allowed the entry of miscreants and reprobates, alike, to the detriment of native Americans, as well as other law-abiding transplants. The problem, however, now lies with the homogenization of the populace.



Pretending all was copacetic once a person began residing in the United States has proven to be overly naïve. Sneaking across the border, evading detection by Customs and Border Patrol, taking illicit jobs, circumventing driving laws, and stealing scarce financial-related benefits from all legal citizens, have placed a crushing burden on those who regularly follow the rules.



Meanwhile, Mayorkas appeared before Congress on several different occasions to answer questions on the porousness of the borders. And on each occasion, he wore the same smug grin while looking down his nose at the congressional interviewers, demonstrating a total lack of candor each time.



Likely feeling he escaped without consequence, Mayorkas was part and parcel of his years-long overt deception leading to this very day. Also complicit are the elected state and local government officials who, with an extended middle fingers promised law abiding Americans they no longer held sway, relegating them to second-class citizen status.



All this didn’t go unnoticed, though. Unfortunately, Leftist Democrat politicians vocally insisting “No one is illegal,” easily found television cameras to further spread their propaganda, all for vote pandering.



Hoping the newly settled illegal immigrants in America would simply comply with all its rules and regulations, these arrogant actions began overwhelming the system while breaking the financial back of the United States.



This mass deception seemed to work. Until the river of free gravy stopped flowing from the “haves” to the “have nots.” Local and state self-declared sanctuary territory governments found themselves in dire financial deficits; those deficits were immediately foisted upon the federal government once Trump became president again.



But the genuinely radical illegals have clearly been lying in wait to emerge from hiding to begin their internal attack on their hosts: generous Americans.



Radicalized college students, as well as those masquerading as college students, have become emboldened enough to openly march, chant, and demand the extermination of an entire race of people: Jews.



This sick pronouncement is in direct lockstep with the way Nazis overtook Germany in the 1930’s, and it’s all on the backs of the Democratic Party.



It’s time to reign in these ill-affected wackos. If they are here illegally, they should be immediately deported without the ability to ever return. And if they are Americans legally here, they should be arrested, tried, and swiftly incarcerated under federal terrorism statutes.



If laws are not being applied in such egregious examples of fear manifestation, they should simply be removed from the books.



In any case, this horror needs to stop – immediately.

Imagine

 

  Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s, introduced my generation to things other than previous time periods. Of course, we had the seemingly endless Vietnam War and subsequent loss of lives, but we also had the “mod” culture creating hep kids, along with their equally hep parents, via drugs and free sex.


Meeting in colleges and universities, these new free-spirited kids were encouraged to experiment with ways to soften the speed bumps in life’s highways, something these youngsters were told was germane to them – never felt or experienced by previous generations of shavers.


Together, these young pukes were offered alternatives to life’s angst-causing tension. To make this tension more palatable besides mainstream, the clinical term “stress” was created, and applied as an excuse for any and all shortcomings in life.


The cure? Sex, drugs, and rock and roll were the prescribed solutions to relieving stress, and the already long-indulging college professors were more than willing to introduce a ‘virgin’ group of stressed out students to coping with life.


But to make this societal leap across the chasm of morals, the normalization of taboo acts and items needed to be bridged.


Drug use, including the mundane smokable marijuana, plus intravenous heroin, and exotic cocaine, became readily available to most youngsters agog to experiment with new things to exorcise their stress.


This availability of stress relievers allowed kids and adults, alike, to enjoy life more by engaging in more sex. Unfortunately, all that sex came with a price in the form of unwanted pregnancies. Abortions were illegal so, a societal push was generated to legalize something called abortions.


A tidy term, abortions were highly glossed over by explaining them as a means to terminate pregnancies. Exceptionally light on the details, abortions became a legalized way to ‘have your cake and eat it, too.’


Using legislation to permit the unfettered extermination of unwanted babies, the term was quickly modified from abortion to reflect something more sedate; women’s reproductive health care. While shifting the blame from the potential mother to the unwanted baby, this avenue to eugenics seemed to open the door to debauchery, exponentially.


As means of reinforcement of this movement, the music morphed from innocent doo-wop and street corner harmonizing into ballads full of propaganda about drug use, as well as the elimination of religion – in particular, God.


Until World War II, mainstream music consisted of orchestras led by familiar names such as Kay Kaiser, Bennie Goodman, and Count Basie, to name a few, until rock and roll surfaced across radio airwaves, plus the still relatively new medium, television.


TV allowed listeners to not only hear the artists performing, they were could now also see their singers and musicians performing.


This new visual exposé showed the world boys and men sporting long hair, women scantily clad, musicians rocking with their guitars, with most wearing bell bottomed blue jeans. Times were changing.


But it was the songs themselves that influenced the direction of America through this cultural modification, for better or worse; there was no going back.



One of the more influential bands was The Beatles. Comprised of John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr, this modest-size band from England brought a new sound, and new look, in addition to a new attitude readily accepted by the anxious youth.

The Beatles

Although exceptional, in terms of popularity and their ability to influence, The Beatles were decaying before our eyes. Being internally divided by their significant others, the longevity of this quartet marvel couldn’t bear the weight of its own success.


John Lennon, one of the primary song and lyric writers, felt compelled to pen a song titled “Imagine.”


Here are the lyrics in case you never heard this song to allow you to better decide if this was one of the earliest attempts to destroy America by removing religion and other norms.



Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today... Aha-ah...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace... You...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world... You...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one



Such abilities to influence are rare, but to actually witness this effort of destroying religion, morals, and chastity borders on unbelievable.


Yet here we are about a half-century later debating as to just how our nation reached the current level of self-destruction through the simple changing of norms.


America spent the last four-years debating how a mentally deficient man could run – and win a presidential election – by hiding in his basement. With the compliant media pushing their agenda to prevent candidate Donald J. Trump from winning the race, the “news” we heard and saw was simply manufactured to fit an agenda.


With repeated drum-banging that awful Trump and his supporters are evil – even Nazi-like – the narrative was set to alter peoples’ minds in an effort to make a lie the truth.


Using racism, misogyny, and xenophobia as diversions, calling candidate Trump “Hitler” did no favors for the unity of America society. All the while, this tripe began having the opposite effect on a dissatisfied voting bloc. Suddenly, the complicit media found themselves awash in questions as to President Joe Biden and his meteoric rise to the Executive Office.


After a lopsided election, enough smart voters chose Donald Trump over mannequin Biden. And with this exposure of electing a fireplace log as the Commander-in-Chief, in 2020, the intelligent among us felt it was time for a change.


But now the 2028 wannabes are jockeying for position for their own run toward The White House. Names such as J.B. Pritzker, Gavin Newsom, Bernie Sanders, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, all have their eyes on the prize, and will hold nothing back to achieve that goal.


Although more than three years away, these sleazes have been verbally maligning President Trump along with his societal-saving plans for a strong, safe, independent America.


With the election of Trump into the Oval Office for his second term, our changes for survival seem more promising for survival than a year ago. But it is time for imagining the hatred and slaughter of Jews by mentally deficient, self-anointed, wackos, being hidden by that tired media who excel at keeping important facts hidden.


Still, the Democrat clown show performs its antagonism against fellow Americans. It’s high time to begin legal action to stymie the hate and carnage against people they dislike.


Attorney General Bondi?

Smokey the Cat

 

  If you never owned a pet, in general, or a cat, in particular, this is an opportune time to move on to something more productive in your day.


Of course you have countless choices of personal activity: cleaning the bathroom, painting the kitchen ceiling, or mowing the lawn, are but a few brilliant ideas to keep busy devoid of today’s story. Whatever you decide, it hope you will return next week for a subsequent story. Until then, have a nice day.


Since you’re still reading without a toilet brush in your hand, I’m going to dive right in. Those quitters don’t know what they’re missing.


Fifteen years ago, a tiny gray ball of fur appeared in the lives of my sainted wife and me. Turns out this fist-size globe of energy was a malnourished feral kitten.


He seemed delighted to bounce and roll in the autumn leaf-covered lawn – occasionally snatching up an errant magnolia leaf in his mouth. Stumbling as he approached me, as if to bring me a toy, this demon-in-disguise had the energy I had, only fifty-years ago.


Attempting to keep up with his antics, I quickly found myself becoming more enthused about entertaining this itty bitty kitty than going about my duties of winterizing the property.


Curious about the lack of running machinery noise to include riding mower, leaf blower, and weed wacker, my sainted wife appeared, as if by magic, to investigate the unnatural silence of pretty much any kind of work in which I was supposed to be involved.


What is THAT?” she cried in surprise. And when I use the word “surprise,” it’s not in a good way. For example, asking about her new gift of jewelry that appears to consist of several one-caret real diamonds, would be a good surprise.


Her not being able to identify an overactive baby kitten does not necessarily fall into that category, though.


Smokey
I proceeded to explain the sexual gestation of felines, soon to be interrupted due to her next question about from whence it came, when she interrupted again. She began mumbling something incoherent about not having yet another pet, as well as a garbled statement regarding a divorce, when this endearing creature meandered over to her and promptly sat on her shoe.


Looking skyward into this giant’s blood-red eyes, this fur-covered orphan appeared to be heading into a new home.


Not only a new home, but a loving, caring doting home.


The following Monday, Smokey the Cat – his new moniker – made the trip to a local veterinarian to see if he had an identification chip; he didn’t. We all departed the vet after Smokey received his required vaccinations, a thorough examination, plus a brand-new
hatred for veterinarians.


It would appear as though his sore vaccination-filled butt was waning, in as much as he seemed to enjoy riding in a two-seater pickup truck. For your information, cats, unlike dogs, hate riding anywhere likely because each time a cat gets into a vehicle, the destination is the vet’s office.


Yet, he peered out the side window, taking in the sights until our return home. That was 5,475 days ago, and most of those days were jam-packed with adventures.


Many of those adventures have been subjects of stories on this blogsite since his arrival, in addition to the occasional gratuitous mention just for effect.


Throughout those years we discovered Smokey’s breed was that of a Korat, a pure breed of feline from Thailand. And, as with most every pet owner, their animal buddies are: the smartest, prettiest, quickest, funnest, tallest, shortest, bravest, fattest, or simply the bestest. Smokey was no different.


Still, none of that really matters because our pets are our best friends. Loyal, honest, caring, protective, and unconditionally loving. Our best friends.


They never came home with a bad report card, or were expelled from obedience school, complained about dinner, phoned for bail money, or became upset because they were safely indoors on those cold or thunder-filled rainy nights. They appreciated whatever they had.


Cheesy felt toys, balls of yarn, a crumpled piece of note paper, or an errant spider, often provided entertainment for our pets and their humans, alike, during idle times. Simple times.


Alas, Smokey left us for his trip across the Rainbow Bridge, “a place just this side of Heaven,” where pets go following their lives here on Earth. The poem entitled “Rainbow Bridge” is a touching tribute that simply, yet concisely, explains where Smokey and other pets reside awaiting to meet up with us, again.


And so, Smokey and his years of adventures will continue to live on through this blogsite for the foreseeable future. Godspeed, Smokey. Thanks for the memories.


And thank you for reading. Now go clean your bathroom.

Yogi-ism

 

  Yogi Berra, the late New York Yankees manager, is famous for not only his remarkable skill and subsequent success managing the Bronx Bombers, but also for his Yogi-isms. Yogi-isms are dashes of pure brilliance that Mr. Berra unwittingly transformed from mundane words into eternal gifts.


One such Yogi-ism is, “It’s like deja vu all over again.” Often attributed to his replying to a reporter’s comment on a missed World Series opportunity, this is our starting point for today’s story.

Legend Yogi Berra


Without offering an explanation or even a mediocre excuse, the legacy media, in lockstep with sleazy politicians, have begun resuscitating the tripe that worked in 2020 to help prevent Donald Trump from extending his first term into a second.


Racist,” “bigot,” “stupid,” “old,” “unserious,” and “rich,” are just a few of the arrows fired at Donald Trump during the 2020 Presidential Election between candidates President Trump and Senator Joseph Robinette “Uncle Joe” Biden.


Of course, we now know that the only true accusation against President Trump is “rich.” Still, those slurs worked well enough to keep President Trump from regaining a back-to-back term. As such, former President Trump found himself with enough ample time on his hands to improve his golf game.


Trotting out anyone with an opinion, the legacy media, who couldn’t get President Biden to answer what day of the week it was, suddenly found itself agog with new unfettered access to a living human being, plus vibrant executive, all rolled into one package.


Unfortunately, the Democrats, led by Uncle Joe – which is highly questionable – left re-elected Donald Trump with a monumental mess beyond comprehension. Biden and his street thug lackeys regularly tossed lies about everything from illegal aliens to electric vehicles and the economy, regularly blaming “the other guy.” (He was so offensive no one could even utter the name ‘Donald Trump.)


But four years of propping up a cadaver-like Uncle Joe became tiresome and difficult for most motivated Democrat scum bags attempting to circumvent The Constitution and the rule of law. And so the exodus began.


With feeble, spineless Congressmen and Senators huddling in smoke-filled backrooms – licking each other’s wounds – they found themselves much too busy to effect action from a corrective standpoint.


Repeatedly summoning the usual suspects in their Death-to-America Campaign to appear before a hapless Congress, people like Alejandro Mayorkas continued to demonstrate his arrogance and disdain for America as he continually repeated the lie our “borders were closed.”


To punctuate this grand display of narcissism, then-Vice President Kamala Harris, border czar, was called to task over the sieve-like border wall. Rather than answer the question, Harris insisted she was not the border czar, similarly lying she had “been to the border.” Alas, she had not. Alas.


But the legacy media found nothing wrong with these overt displays of arrogance, coupled with lack of candor, from the Biden Administration. In fact, not only did they ignore the lack of nonpartisanship atmosphere, they actually helped cover it up – not unlike business in a cat’s litter box.


So it was with great ovation that Donald Trump handily won re-election to the presidency in 2024, only to be heartily greeted by that same complicit media who suddenly found their voices.


Rather than being ignored by the White House press secretary, or even an exiting Uncle Joe, the media discovered their 47th President was not going to be doing impressions of a department store mannequin for the next four-years. What were they going to do now?


Backing up to the above second paragraph, “It’s like deja vu all over again.” Being hounded and harangued by this deaf, mute, and blind gaggle of Wannabe Gotchas these new attacks quickly leaped out of the starting gate almost before the signal bell sounded.


Throwing barbed questions and accusations at a new, fresh and intelligent White House spokesperson, the media found themselves angered that their application of Yogi-isms weren’t working as well as they had anticipated.


Using the ol’ hit-n-run tactic of tossing out a serious accusation against President Trump, then quickly publishing it before verification was complete, failed on several occasions. And that’s too bad.


Exhuming excerpts from the 2016 Russia Hoax, 2020 COVID-19 scam, the ongoing Climate Change Catastrophe, plus the manufactured fabrications regarding President Trump’s ailments having racist, bigoted, and stupid tendencies, would make Mr. Berra proud.


However, with tired, well-worn material from which the America-hating Lefties on the table, traction was not what Adam Schiff, Chuck Schumer, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, and Ayanna Pressley, were achieving.


In an effort to add fresh faces spewing the same ol’ invectives, all the above insufferable clowns welcomed two newcomers to their infamous “Squad.”


One is a Texas punchline to a joke named Jasmine Crockett. She a self-admitted DEI hire, and avowed anti-White racist, who popped up like the proverbial turd-in-the-punch bowl. Discovering just how many people could be influenced by her venom against civility, she instantly transformed into a camera whore without missing a step.


Often using a special dialect, this manicy representative has been gleefully lobbing invectives at anyone not black, female, Democrat, or filled with hate. This may be her signal to the Democrat Party that she desperately wants a shot at the White House in upcoming elections.


The other newest Squad member is a relic named Bernie Sanders. No relation to Colonel Sanders, Bernie is a long-standing Senator from ultra-liberal Vermont and has been so since 2007. An influential source in steering Vermont in a progressive shift, he is currently serving and running as an independent.


It seems as though Sanders is another one of those wannabe Communists who feel that he, along with travel buddy, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, should not subject to the same standards as the rest of us po’ folks.


Recently asked about his and AOC’s nation-wide travel on private, fuel guzzling jets, rather than commercial aircraft, Sanders indignantly retorted he shouldn’t be expected to have to wait in line to fly to the next propaganda fest on the sins of “oligarchy.” Amen.


Of course,
he and AOC probably don’t know the meaning of the word oligarchy. Kind of ironic, jetting about the country in first class while the less affluent need to wait their turn. Importance has its privileges, after all.


Still, it’s the constant attacks on President Donald Trump, as well as his supporters, that continue to divide our nation. But it’s not much different than when Yogi Berra attempted to use deja vu in describing the Yankees and their failed World Series quest.


Let’s hope hard-working Americans will see the forest for the trees in upcoming elections. These blood-sucking phonies need real employment, not jobs telling American taxpayers they need to pay more to finance nuttier ideas from these progressive kooks.


Although the time-proven invectives worked for the Democrats during the last few election cycles doesn’t mean they can, or will, work to further divide our sovereign nation.


Unless you want deja vu all over again, that is.

Conniptions

 

  Many of us have heard or even used the word “conniption,” but like so many who do use words, they don’t know what they mean.


According to The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, conniption is a noun for which there are several definitions. Its primary definition is “A fit of violent emotion, such as anger or panic.”


Without massaging or manipulation, the word conniption fits neatly – hand-in-glove style – into the behavior of Democrats, along with their international counterparts, toward President Donald J. Trump and his supporters, with little ebbing in sight.


We just passed the 100-days of Trump in-office mark on April 29th. Throughout those days of rough waters Democrats have decided to roil the governmental seas even more.


Trump, inheriting incredible inflation, combined with an unprecedented invasion of our once-sovereign nation with undocumented transients, historic spending, all supported by lies emitted from a complicit press, virtually guaranteed the ruination of the once United States of America.


Let’s take a moment to examine just how we arrived at this surreal moment in history.


To summarize, the Democrats, in cahoots with the mainstream media, aka.: legacy media, ran a life-long politician whose mental capacity rivaled that of an aluminum folding chair. Riding high with successes in pulling the wool over the eyes of citizens during the COVID “crisis,” the media took liberties to continue the scam whilst protecting then-president Joe Biden.


Effectively snookering the populace with fabrications abetted by government doctors, plus anyone naive enough to believe their tripe, the united Democrats and their media allies conned Americans to cower and blindly follow instructions issued without rhyme or reason.


Realizing how much power they could wield if only they could remain united, the proverbial sausage was being manufactured at a breakneck pace. This cooperative effort resulted in more than 12 million illegal aliens entering the United States under the cover of lies that the borders were closed.


They were not.

Our nation found itself at odds with itself with the two sides arguing with each other over some long-forgotten scams called “sanctuary cities” and “sanctuary states.” These words drove a giant wedge between those who feel Americans have bottomless wallets, and those who knew otherwise.


Tossing around accusations such as not having compassion, hating ‘people of color,’ being xenophobic, “trying to keep America White,” plus being greedy, did little to calm already soaring emotions from the great COVID lie.


Further apart than at any other time in history, the American people found themselves attempting to decipher truth from fabrication with little luck.


All this contrived deceit further split the nation, turning it into something unrecognizable to nearly any true American. Suddenly, the Democrat-controlled Congress and Senate, along with the Democrat-run Executive branch, held absolute sway in passing anything and everything without an iota of dissent.


It didn’t take long for the Democrat goat rodeo to further manipulate our American ways of life in spades. With legislation targeting life’s basics, for instance: outlawing all internal combustion vehicles, air-conditioners, incandescent light bulbs, fireplaces, gas-powered yard equipment, wood pizza ovens, besides eyeing the elimination of privately-owned guns, America’s future appeared dim, at best.


Based in fantasy, such inane ideas began driving the country’s economic bus straight for the edge of the cliff. Using contrived employment figures to deceive our populace, Democrats, still backed by the legacy media, ushered in grossly mislabeled economic bills at a breakneck pace.


Adding to an already bloated budget, Congressional spendthrifts began writing bad checks for money the Treasury Derangement didn’t have. Under the guise of “crisis aversion” and “critical diversions,” Congress, the White House, and Senate, all circled the wagons to pretend this next spending bill was needed to simply survive.


This lack of candor was eventually realized when the new jobs/employment figures were released each month on a Friday – only to be “readjusted” downward because of low calculator batteries spitting out false numbers.


All the while, that illegal immigrant invasion continued to plague – overburden – our infrastructure in a financial manner never before seen. To this day, that financial epidemic continues; in just one month in 2024, “Texas hospitals were left on the hook for nearly $122,000,000 in health care costs racked up by illegal immigrants for one month,” according to Fox News. (Emphasis mine.)


That’s a lot money, for your information. This figure is for the first month the state began tracking the figures.


Meanwhile, that empty checkbook on which Congress has been drawing is currently $36 trillion in debt, and soaring.


In a feeble attempt of make-believe to stop the cash hemorrhaging, Dems have been giving it their best Academy Award acting performances. Desperately trying to do damage control – something for which they hadn’t planned because they were absolutely certain they would retake the White House, Dems opened up their secret Dybbuk Box.


For your edification, a Dybbuk Box is a Hebrew container that contains an evil spirit – a disembodied human, or Dybbuk – that attempts to cling onto another living human. Upon opening the Dybbuk Box, this malicious, wandering soul enters the “new” body, remaining there until it is exorcised.


Clearly behaving in heinous fashion, Democrats have been recruiting and indoctrinating less-than-intelligent students, as well as other ignorant voters, to continue that bus trip into total destruction of our God-fearing country. The Dybbuk was loose in America, latching onto any Democrat with a pulse.


By insisting men can become women, and vice versa, they have bastardized the once-gospel sex education classes taught in elementary schools. By distancing themselves from “women’s rights,” that Democrats so loudly demanded, they are now attempting to normalize boys and men competing against girls and women. Odd at best.


They legalized incarceration of individuals who failed to receive COVID vaccinations, but found it totally acceptable to allow unscrutinized entry into the United States of illegal aliens ignoring COVID, tuberculosis, even polio vaccination requirements.


This entire exercise quickly collapsed, though, in November 2024, with the election of Donald Trump as our 47th President.


The once-complacent legacy media, plus the disinterested Democrat politicians, began scrambling to reorganize their efforts to crush any and all attempts of President Trump to return our country to honest, God-loving citizens.


Even following two assassination attempts on his life, President Trump continued marching toward his goals of making America great again, an acronym – MAGA – that has been transformed into a slur akin to the almighty ‘N-word.’


Badgering him and his supporters alike since his inauguration, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as well as other hapless wannabes, have rallied around each and every television camera and microphone to spew their invectives, albeit misplaced, leveled at people who are law-abiding citizens.


And just like dragging a $20 bill through a trailer park will attract an array of characters, those freaks began holding rallies, singing, dancing, and grandstanding on the Capitol steps all to make a point that Democrats have become more than just annoying; they are also an embarrassment.


This public display of insanity is far more than merely Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS), it is bordering on clinical. With Leftist governors, senators, congress fools, and media resorting to threats – even demands – of violence, the opposition to law and order is on the precipice of dangerous.


Trying everything that previously worked to trip up President Trump in his first term, the Democrats now find themselves in a panic. Not to worry.


Democratic Congressclown Shri Thanedar, Michigan (D), decided his moral righteousness would best America in saving the Republic with an old, familiar trick: by filing articles of impeachment against President Trump. If you don’t believe these street clowns are crazy, continue reading.

Shri Thanedar, one of our stupidest
representatives


Representative Thanedar, an Indian transplant. is so morally superior to everyone else, he plum forgot to mention his own faux pas of some ten-years ago.


Oddly enough, it seems as though “Thanedar left more than a 100 dogs, and 40 monkeys to starve to death in cages after testing chemicals on them when his business went bankrupt,” per Michigan GOP Senator Aric Nesbitt. Oops!


It would do our rebounding nation a lot of good to continue to watch the Democrats and their media cheerleaders do back flips while lying about President Trump’s accomplishments.


These fine examples of conniptions are the result of being caught telling repeated lies, interwoven with hate and unwarranted, misplaced hate.


Here’s a special personal note to Democrats: Grow up!


Enough already.
