Pop Quiz

 Attention class:  Today is a terrific time for test.  Tests are administered – or were – in schools to determine how much or little the students are learning.  I’ve been writing this blog for more than a dozen years, and it’s about time to check on our progress.

 

Question One:            Ketanji Brown Jackson is the nominee to be the first black woman Supreme Court Justice.  Throughout her multiple-day forum answering questions from our Senate and House, Jackson fielded countless softball inquiries while accepting scores of accolades.

 

She appeared to have a difficult time answering exploratives relating to the judicial system, her past court records, and her family, both generally and specifically.

 

She bragged with pride about her white husband and mixed race children, while she proudly said her given name was of African decent, a gift from her parents.

 

One question asked of Jackson, by Senator Marsha Blackburn, was if Jackson could “define ‘woman.’”  This potential Supreme Court Justice, Justice for life, as a matter fact, said, “I can’t.”  Her addled brain also precluded her from answering an opinion on when life begins.

 

Jackson was unable to differentiate between a woman, and presumably a man.

 

Q:  Although open-minded and judicial-sounding, does Ketanji Brown Jackson appear to be a qualified black female if she is unable to self-identify as a woman?

 

 

Question Two:           President Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., has been President for more than a year. Since his inauguration in January 2021, inflation began spiraling toward the heavens.  Most of this happened because of Biden’s so-called “Infrastructure Bill.”

 

Costing American tax payers trillions of dollars – dollars that don’t exist – Biden’s solution was to simply print more money.

 

Recalling his Senate career from 1973 – 2009, then his term as Vice President in the years 2009 – 2017, Biden realized he could do anything he wanted, financially.  After all, we are now $27,000,000,000,000 in debt.  Let’s print mo’ money until we run out of ink.

 

Unfortunately, instead of his law degree – the one in which he graduated second from the last in his class – one would think he would’ve pursued a degree in economics, thereby providing him with a solid lesson of how money is earned, saved, and spent.  Alas.

 

Because of his poor-at-best understanding of how money works, Biden’s budget has created havoc with America’s economy, summarily sending our long term financial outlook into deep inflation bordering on a major recession that may be on the horizon.

 

Q:  Is President Biden as stupid as he looks?

 

 

Question Three:         Vice President Kamala Harris is the first black, non-black female vice president of America.  She has been vocally proud of her Jamaican father and Indian mother, neither of which is technically black.

 

VP Harris and the First Hubby

Traveling about the world, and at least lying about visiting France and America’s Southern border, demonstrated her shallow thinking skills and her integrity.  During her bland initial year in office, Harris has drained her office of personnel, many of whom became soulless after working for this demanding witch.

 

Further, her ability to not laugh at any and every public question asked has reached a zenith, for better or worse.  Cackling about international travel, foreign war refugees, her smoking illegal drugs, and Afghanistan disaster, Harris proved to be a total embarrassment, if only for her inane, rambling speeches.

 

She appears to talk down to everyone except her mirror, even foreign leaders and her constituents.  Once again, this race traitor, who is married to a white man, completely backs critical race theory, Black Lives Matter, and, tacitly, segregation.

 

Q:  Who in their right mind voted for this circus clown?

 

 

Question Four:          Fuel prices are soaring, and have been doing so since Joe Biden’s Inauguration Day.  It was at that time when he signed Executive Order after Executive Order, to shut down the Keystone XL Pipeline, which was designed to help send crude oil by the hundred-of-thousands, from Canada to the United States, safely and efficiently.

 

Oil prices, and subsequently gas and diesel fuel, have skyrocketed since that notable day.  But Biden has been lying – as well as his press secretary, Jen Psaki – as is evident in her less-than-honest demeanor for months now with the American people.

 

Both insist the Keystone Pipeline banning had no bearing on the soaring gas prices, with some rising in cost more than $2 per gallon since Biden’s EOs.  California reports a cost of regular gas gallon running over $6.

 

Still, after repeated querying about restarting work on the Keystone Pipeline, Biden and Harris are colluding to hide the trust about their out-of-touch programs and manipulations.

 

Q:  Is Spokes lady Jen Psaki’s brain damaged from her hair dye, much like Biden’s may be damaged from his hair plugs?

 

 

Question Five:            Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Representative from New York, rose through the ranks of life rather quickly.  She attended College of Arts and Sciences, and Boston University, and working as a bartender, just before running and winning her seat in the NY-14 district, as a Democrat; she has held that position since 2019.

 

Earning a double degree in international relations and economics, Ocasio-Cortez, AKA: AOC, squashed more jobs than most politicians by nixing an Amazon Center in her NYC district.  Promising thousands of jobs in the $140,000+ per year range were simply scoffed at by her, causing Amazon to build elsewhere.

 

She also proposed taxing certain individuals at a 70% rate, in order to fund her hare-brained environmental/climate project.  Her apparently useless economics degree prevented her from becoming anything more ambitious than a bartender following her Boston University graduation.

 

In addition to destroying the lives of both her constituents and the balance of Americans, AOC, as a self-described Democratic Socialist of America, has more ambition than brains.

 

Q:  Can someone please send her a job application for a bartender’s position?  Please?

 

 

Question Six:              Although difficult to determine from seeing her, is Nancy Pelosi still alive?

 

 

Question Seven:         Dr. Anthony Fauci, Chief Medical Advisor to the President of the United States, has been serving in the federal government, in varying capacities, for nearly a half-decade.

 

The highest paid government employee, Fauci has been front and center during the 2019 COVID-19 pandemic.  He was instrumental in handling the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the early 1980’s.  Allegations about his handling of the HIV/AIDS epidemic were leveled by members of the LGBTQ+ community, saying he slow-walked a possible cure.

 

Still, he was a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force under President Donald J. Trump.  He has regularly appeared on countless news and magazine-style television programs, has been revered for his decisive medical actions, and has been a viable contender for wearing N-95 masks and receiving vaccinations, regardless of their usefulness.

 

Q:  Since he lied to the public about mask and vaccine efficacy, should he be arrested and incarcerated for 250+ years in a SuperMax prison?

 

 

Now that wasn’t so bad.  Just for the record, all your answers are correct because they are your opinions.  Congratulations on a perfect score!

 

Hope to see you next week.

Brilliant Strategy

 Joseph Robinette Biden, current President of the United States, dragged our nation out of the Afghanistan quagmire in 2021.  He claimed the 20-year war in which we were entrenched was hopeless and exited with an estimated $64,000,000,000 worth of U.S. military gear and supplies left behind.

 

Ol’ Lunch Bucket Joe insisted we depart that giant Middle East toilet immediately because he was sick and tired of seeing American soldiers needlessly die on foreign soil.

 

His brilliant strategy was to simply pack our bags and boogie out of harm's way.  Brilliant.

 

Because the mainstream media (MSM) are extra quiet on our exit strategy, the truth may never be known.  But were our military leaders involved with input on leaving Afghanistan, or not?

 

General Mark Milley, the current Chief of Staff of the United States Army, insists his input was ignored by the great military strategist, Joe Biden, who gave the orders.  Alas.

 

Lloyd Austin and Mark Milley, both are on the Left

In case you missed it, Four Star General Milley is the same Four Star General Milley that only months prior, had begged the world for insight into racial equity and systemic racism in both American society and the United States military.  Quite a guy.

 

According to news reports, Milley, along with Lloyd Austin, teamed up to improve our armed forces by accusing White military personnel of systemic racism. With accusations of discrimination flying faster than an F-117, our defenders we subjected to accusations, lies, and humiliation, all in the name of equality.

 

In the event you were unaware, Lloyd Austin is the current Secretary of Defense of the United States, and is black.  He was likely born black – not a personal choice – but he has somehow become established in this systemic racism tripe, apparently without regret.

 

Black Lloyd Austin is the antithesis of white Mark Milley.  Both have attained quite lofty positions of power and status, without crying racism for their achievements.

 

But Joe Biden’s Afghanistan immediate departure resulted in a suicide bomber killing 13 American soldiers immediately preceding this cowardly-appearing escape.  And speaking of escape, Biden, Milley, and Austin left behind not only billions of dollars of useable military hardware, but also seemingly countless Americans.

 

The plan to get these patriots out?  Biden explained to us that most of them stayed behind by choice.  Sure, because that Middle East toilet is so much nicer and freer than America.

 

The bottom line is that Joe was wrong once again on foreign policy, something the MSM has yet to call him on.

 

And to prove that he is smarter than he looks, Biden is dipping his big toe into the waters of war once again.  Heck, it’s been nearly a year since our soldiers needlessly died in another unwinnable political war

 

This time, he feels he’s smarter and more mentally sharp than President Vladimir Putin.  Putin is the President of Russia; Russia is a giant landmass of a country that has, not only quite an impressive army, but also lots of oil and natural gas, both of which much of Europe needs, but America, as well.

 

Since the day of his inauguration, Biden signed Executive Orders as “thank you notes” to the environmentalists who helped get him elected.

 

Those EOs included shutting the Keystone XL pipeline, halting drilling in ANWR, canceling oil leases in the continental United States, and freezing fracking.  This was all done in the name of the Global Climate Change conflict.

 

This self-contrived conflict has been around for decades, with each decade bringing a new dire warning about the imminent demise of all human life within a handful of years.  Since the early 1970’s, we have been subjected to lies and manufactured computer prognostications of the Earth’s longevity.

 

The warnings have been predictable with rising oceans, disappearing ozone, over forestation, pollution, dirty water, major climate swings, and erosion.  The cure?

 

Windmills, solar power, and other renewable forms of energy to summarily replace our use of “fossil fuels,” are the solutions to extermination of all things living.

 

The good news is that Tesla, Ford, General Motors, Audi, and numerous other vehicle manufacturers are pioneering the way to electric vehicles.

 

The bad news, however, is that with the current push toward renewable energy, we have fewer capabilities to recharge, cell phones much less electric vehicles.

 

The truth?  Biden’s hare brained EOs stopping-up our domestic oil production is already proving to be a national disaster by helping increase the cost of living/inflation.  With food, home heating, clothing, vehicle, air travel, and housing costs out of control, the estimate of a family’s inflation has risen to an extra $511 per month!

 

Our military has been dithering with inane racial matters in lieu of being accused of racism by racists.  Now they’re ready to hold hands on the battlefield with the enemy.

 

Environmentalists’ simple-minded plans to cede America’s strength to foreign powers seem to be working, inasmuch as we are buying 350,000 barrels of oil, per day, from Russia.  That is important because we are against them attacking Ukraine.  In other words we are financially subsidizing Russia to fight Ukraine.

 

Blacks, and black apologist/guilty whites, are banging the drum of racism while they falsely complain about their accomplishments.

 

Our nation is decidedly overrun with illegal aliens who have poured into our sovereign nation for the past year, by the millions.

 

Democrats have reached the brink of total chaos by telling so many lies that they don’t recognize fact from fiction.

 

Where it will all end is anyone’s guess.  My hope is that it will end in November 2022, immediately following the mid-term elections.  Of course time will tell.

 

But it won’t be soon enough.

The Genius Bunch

 In the corporate world, there is a saying: Problems are opportunities. 

 

Simply put, that little ditty means that “when you think of problems you’ll only attract more problems,” according to Inc.com.  Hence, if you recognize a problem, you can address that problem to turn a negative into a positive.

 

Rather than hemorrhaging money or resources, you could analyze your situation to rectify your position and reverse your financial bleeding.

 

That is basically the way private companies and corporations get revenues for reinventing, thereby making more money and more money and more money.

 

On the other hand, “the guvment doesn’t use those systems of belief because the guvment was designed to hire the unhireable.” Those simple seventeen words are attributed to yours truly.

 

If you’ve ever had to deal with guvment speed bumps, you know of what I speak.  Think back to your last trip to the DMV.  How about a call to the police or sheriff to report a crime?  Reaching out to your federal Representative or Senator, or the Veteran’s Administration was likely more than challenging.

 

Remember the angst associated with your most recent federal tax return?  How about your state tax return?  Any questions you had were promptly addressed, weren’t they?  Don’t even get me started on building permits or construction inspections – two more manufacturers of guvment red tape.  And vehicle inspections are simply the worst.

 

All these roadblocks are because the guvment employees associated with the IRS, DMV, police, Department of State, VA, FBI, etc., know they control you and you need them more than they need you.

 

You’re likely thinking you have no recourse for acquiring your driver’s license, building permit, tax filing assistance, passport and visa help, and automobile registration, so you need to be beholden.  And you’re right.

 

But what is genuinely maddening is the way these guvment types lie to us.

 

Take our current White House, for example.  Since the President and Vice President are both very, very busy, they have a “spokesperson” who daily meets with the press to offer current situations and answer questions for those media-types.

 

As of January 2021, the day Joseph Robinette Biden was sworn in as the 46^th President of the United States, the Oval Office nearly ran out of ink while Biden was signing one Executive Order after another to erase any and all evidence of former President Donald J. Trump.

 

One of those EOs was the rollback of the Keystone XL Pipeline, a major energy conduit for the United States.

 

Almost immediately, the price of gas began rising, and that price has been soaring ever since.  In January 2021, regular gas was selling for and average of $2.67/gallon on the East Coast.

 

Today, fourteen months later, we are in the midst of a Russia takeover of Ukraine, a former Soviet Union state; both Russia and Ukraine produce oil as an export.

 

But inasmuch as Russia and Ukraine are battling one another, America’s purchase of crude oil from Russia would be a tacit funding of that bloody conflict.  Standing on the sidelines borders on heartless, but the U.S. entry into another no-win war is suicidal.

 

Today, our gasoline prices are a healthy $4.99/gallon on the East Coast, and have no sign of changing course.

 

No caption necessary

Already, after only a few short weeks of fighting, US politicians are ready to jump into the fight – but I cannot figure out why, and no politician can give Americans a really good reason other than the price of oil.

 

A trip through the Wormhole Activating and Bridging Automatic Computer (WABAC) Machine – a fictional time travel machine from the Sherman and Mr. Peabody cartoon show, offers some interesting insight.

 

For all you youngsters, and old fogies too ancient to remember, America suffered several “gas crises” decades ago.

 

In the early 1970’s, “Arab members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) imposed an embargo against the United States in retaliation for the US decision to re-supply the Israeli military and to gain leverage in the post-war peace negotiations,” per History.State.Gov.

 

I was stuck in miles-long lines to refuel my car at gas stations back then.  Gas went from 33¢/gallon to over $1.25/gallon.  That was lot of money because minimum wage in 1973 was $1.60/hour.  That should put things into perspective.

 

But ask White House spokesperson Jen Psaki, about today’s astronomical gas prices and she’ll answer with a whopper.  She claims this fuel price is rising because of Russian President Vladimir Putin.  Putin is conducting his nefarious business in Europe.  Our Keystone XL Pipeline runs through Canada into the United States.

 

That weak cover story is an attempt to hide the truth behind the record shattering gas price rise.  The truth may anger you, so if you don’t want it, quit reading now.

 

A look back on the campaign trail in 2019, Biden stumped from town-to-town for his election.  When elected, he promised he would eliminate fossil fuels in America.  This was his promise to the eco-warriors who allegedly got him elected as president.

 

Biden is now taking advantage of the European crisis to cling onto the environmental fanaticism.  No more Keystone Pipeline, no more oil from Russia, no more oil from the Middle East, no oil from Venezuela.  How fortuitous. 

 

The definitive solution was recently offered by our U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.  Recently pregnant Buttigieg rose to fame as a Mayor in South Bend, Indiana.  He likely never even rode a bus, but he was qualified enough to earn this lofty position.

 

Along side Mayor Pete, is Jennifer Granholm.  Granholm is the current Secretary of Energy; she was the governor of Michigan, so naturally she meets the criteria for managing America’s energy.  Unfortunately she was as poor a governor as she is a Secretary.

 

Mayor Pete, Gubenor Jenny, and President Nitwit, contrived a rather simple solution to this economic mayhem in which we reside.

 

All three feel the definitive solution is to buy electric vehicles (EV).  Pretty simple, huh?

 

Of course, the least expensive EV costs around $60,000, while many other manufacturers sell theirs for $150,000, and up.

 

This Mensa group glibly stated that you will save so much money from having to purchase gas if you owned an EV.  Unfortunately, they forgot to mention the outrageously expensive and rare recharging stations for your new EV.  Alas.

 

As the late Paul Harvey used to end his radio program: “And now you know the rest of the story.”

 

And now you know how the unhireable solve your problems by creating an opportunity.  Yea!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

It seemed like only months ago.  President Joseph Robinette Biden was sworn-in during a back-slapping ceremony in January 2021.  Perhaps that’s why it seems like only months ago; it was.

 

America was coming off a glorious ride of prosperity, hope, and the first presidency that began and ended without the White House resident starting a war.

 

Upon Biden’s inauguration, the world was in turmoil with something called the COVID-19 flu.  We heard a lot about COVID during the 2020 Presidential debates, with Biden pointing a wrinkled finger at his opponent, incumbent President Donald John Trump, on which Biden blamed each COVID casualty.

 

Throughout the months leading up to that election, the mainstream media (MSM) effectively buried any and all traces of the riots, looting, arson, and deaths.  Most of this mayhem spurred on a new movement of racial division for America precipitated by a truly sick organization called Black Live Matter (BLM).

 

With all the anarchy, Biden allegedly won the election by the largest number of votes ever.  Reasons for this coup include anger over President Trump, most of which was induced by the MSM for three solid years.

 

In any case, Biden gleefully hit the ground running by signing one Executive Order after another to virtually run America into third world country status.  And he has done so with aplomb.

 

In July 2021, Biden insisted the 20-year war in Afghanistan be ended, post haste.  He ordered an immediate withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan; details about his generals’ wishes and suggestions are still oozing out of the Pentagon, but few seem to agree with Biden’s military genius.

 

Actual goat rodeo imitating U.S. Military

This goat rodeo-like exit is best described as chaotic.  American civilians were left behind, troops were left behind, and $84,000,000,000 worth of military hardware was left behind – all in an effort to optically enhance his falling popularity polls.

 

As such, thirteen Special Forces soldiers were killed, as were many Afghani civilians.  The Taliban immediately seized the abandoned weaponry and capitalized using photo ops with that weaponry before distributing it for use against straggling Americans and other allies.

 

Biden’s take on all this was that he needed to stop the 20-year war.  Period.  Then it was off for ice cream.  A reporter’s question was what flavor: “Chocolate chocolate chip,” our Commander-in-Chief responded with a grin.

 

Meanwhile, a fellow named Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, was busy in his European-Asian stronghold.

 

Elected in 2012, Putin has been occupied with assisting Iran with its nuclear program, selling expensive natural gas and oil to Western Europe, and jockeying for position to retake Ukraine; it exited Russian control in 2014, and has remained a sore point for Putin ever since.

 

Ukraine, for the record, is the second largest country in Europe behind Russia.  It was also an important part of the former Soviet Union before its breakup in the 1980’s.  Ukraine’s location is strategic in that it offers access to the Black Sea, while sharing borders with Poland, Belarus, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Moldova.

 

Among its strategic position, Ukraine geography holds iron ore, coal, manganese, natural gas, oil, salt, sulphur, graphite, titanium, magnesium, kaolin, nickel, and mercury.  Many of these natural resources have military uses and can become more valuable in times of war.

 

Putin is said to feel Ukraine rightfully belongs to Russia, as he may desire to reassemble the Soviet Union to its perceived glory days of yore.  Over the past few months, Putin has been moving troops, tanks, artillery, transports, and fuel to the Ukraine border.

 

In what certainly appeared to resemble an imminent invasion, the Biden Administration has been leaking whispers of threats to Putin.

 

As usual, Biden, who appears weak on a good day, recently mumbled that Putin would pay dearly if he entered Ukraine.

 

Still wearing that stupid COVID mask, Biden slurred his threat repeatedly over the course of weeks, that sanctions would be painful to Russia.  That remains to be seen.  All the while President Putin vowed he would not attack Ukraine.  And the back and forth continued.

 

In an epiphany, President Biden realized he would do well to send Vice President Kommie La Harris to Ukraine in an effort to stop any possible invasion by Russia.

 

Harris, for the record, was in charge of America’s southern border.  She could not stifle the flow of illegal immigrants there.  Her stern “Don’t come here,” warning evidently lacked the strength to deter law breakers, drug smugglers, and child sex traffickers, from trespassing on American soil as felons.

 

Videotaped news stories about her effort seem to show her half-hearted stab at threatening the most powerful man in the world, President Putin.

 

I say this because Putin’s optics includes him riding a horse, shirtless, with bulging muscles.  He carefully examines and fires military firearms and shoulder fired missiles, and he walks and speaks with purpose.  There is little doubt Vladimir Putin is a no-nonsense guy.

 

On the other hand, President Biden verbally mumbles, physically stumbles, falls asleep during meetings, and just appears fearful and feeble by wearing that stupid mask. 

 

Although those points are not necessarily concrete indicators of strength or success, they are barometers of personalities that can, and have in the past, sent the world down the wrong path.

 

Yesterday Putin declared eastern sections of Ukraine under Russian control.  Many Ukrainians have already fled the country, while others are standing tough.  What punitive actions Putin will take remain speculative.  But Putin has copious amounts of oil to sell the world.

 

Just bear in mind that Biden and his administration fumbled our departure from Afghanistan – a war in which we had no real fight or goal.

 

Ukraine is now something Biden desperately wants to stick his nose into.  Another 20-year war?  Let’s hope not.  He’s got enough failures on his plate already.

 

If President Biden is concerned about “winning” an incursion in Ukraine, he won’t.  If he’s worried about President Putin, Putin will thoroughly embarrass Biden and the United States.

 

Bottom Line:

 

America’s most dire genuine problem today is the economy, led primarily by the price of oil.  Biden intentionally cut off our oil through the Keystone XL Pipeline, to appease the climate change crowd and a smattering of anti-American Democrat Congressmen.

 

As a result, America is relying on foreign oil from the Middle East, South America, and Russia.  Yes, Russia.

 

By buying our oil from Russia we are paying Putin to threaten us while bankrupting our economy.

 

It’s time to tell that White House nitwit to open the oil flow again, and tell the environmentalists to move to another environmentally friendly country lest we pay $7/gallon for gas, or more.  

 

That old, dead White guy, Thomas Jefferson, said: “ The government you elect is the government you deserve.”

 

Amen.
