This week’s highlights!

February 10,2023

-China sent a spy balloon over the US. traveling from Alaska to the Carolina Coast. After a week of gathering data, the balloon flew over the ocean and US. jets shot it down. What took so long! Guess the Commander and Chief was busy dealing with racial justice and terrorist parents.

-Biden delivered the State of the Union Address on Tuesday. The TV audience was at a 30 year low. Biden lied throughout the speech and completely avoided major concerns of Americans. No comments or plans on crime, southern border, recession, inflation, food prices, war spending in the Ukraine, and National debt. He also viciously attacked Republicans and made false claims regarding their platform. He was not patriotic, nor upbeat. He is the worse US. President in modern times. Our local paper, The Charlotte Fishwrap, ran a headline saying Biden’s speech was a call for unity. Fools!

-Govenor Huckabee was correct. Our political system has two parties, the Normal and the Crazy.

-No truthful answers on the Pelosi attack. The video was bizarre. It’s been 4 months. The October timing seems consistent with attempts to influence voters.

-The “Squad” displayed childish behavior on the floor of Congress. Tantrums are not good for the US. Members of that group are ignorant and dangerous. All show

Nicole Hannah-Jones, shown below, is an angry, Black, racial injustice activist. She criticized inner city drug stores for installing cages in their stores to prevent shoplifting. The looting has been so bad that many stores just closed!!!! UNC-CH was right not granting her tenure. She is a shit stirrer.

-It is quite obvious that Twitter acted against the Republican party in the 2020 National election. The FBI told them what groups to censure, almost entirely Conservative, and to withhold information about the corrupt Biden family. Chief executives at Twitter called the Republicans Nazis. This matters because Twitter has 367,000,000 active daily users.

—–Biden’s Federal agencies misspent $191 billion in Covid aid. That was the report from the Inspector General of the US. Dept. of Labor. Congressional leaders have called this “the greatest theft of taxpayers money in American history.” Corruption, criminal acts and fraud were cited in the reported loss.

LeBron James has scored 38,390 points in his NBA career of 20 years. He set a new record this week. The old record was held by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

Lastly, the NC House of Representatives voted to move forward with the “Parents Bill of Rights.” The bill requires that parents must be included when the schools are surveying students on issues like gender transformation. Parents have recently (Covid) learned a lot about what the hell is actually happening in school classrooms and with curriculums. Parents have always had these rights. Friends-do we really want a recently graduated 23-year-old third grade teacher lecturing students on gender transforming surgery. I say teach math, science and reading/writing. NC is ranked 37th in the US. in education!!!!!!!

My Weekly Musings!

February 2, 2023

Last week the country of Pakistan lost power. It’s electrical power grid failed. Pakistan has a population of 235,000,000 people. No lights, refrigeration, motors, medical equipment, streetlights, heating, traffic signals, etc. No word on the cause.

Britain’s inflation rate is 10.5%. Food prices are up 16.7% over the last 12 months. Most unions in England are now on strike. Also in Britain, the car battery company Britishvolt filed for bankruptcy. Three years ago, the government funded the company as part of the “green industry.” Now officials and executives are expressing doubt about the viability of making batteries for electric cars.

Nine million young men in the US. are not participating in the labor market. Most are at home videogaming. This is a major cause of the labor shortage. And-when men don’t work while young, they don’t work when they get older. Huge problem. Stopping the “free stuff” is the answer.

In my home city, high school girls wear pajama pants to school. Just let that sink in!

Whole Foods won its court case brought by 3 ex-employees who claimed discrimination. All three were fired for wearing Black Lives Matter face masks while working. The store has a dress code that prohibits slogans on clothes. Frivolous!

Biden can’t do anything right. Nice car next to boxes of classified documents.

Microsoft is investing $10 billion in OpenAI the company behind “chatgpt.” This technology will let users query robotic website to get language spoken answers. Kinda of like Siri but much more advanced. This will change/eliminate many low skilled jobs.

Universal basic-income (UBI’s) schemes are popping up in the liberal states and cities. In Chicago, checks for $500 will go to people making less than $69,000 per year. The checks are monthly and will continue for at least 2 years. A horrible policy!

Cori Bush is an ignorant fool. She is a Congresswoman from St. Louis, (a very dangerous city- 356 murders last year) and recently blamed white supremacy for the tragic death of Tyre Nichols. The chief of police in Memphis is a Black woman. Blame her!!!

Steph Curry (NBA) is a fraud! He claims to be a liberal and supports Biden but made some major moves to block low-income housing from being built near his $30 million California mansion.

Lastly, Kevin McCarthy is the new Speaker of the House. I support him! This week he said the biggest threat to America is our National Debt, now standing at $31 trillion. I totally agree.

Who is Responsible for Raising Children?

Our local newspaper, “The Charlotte Fishwrap,” recently ran an article about low-income mothers. The author spelled out all the problems low-income mothers face, including low paying jobs, childcare, medical costs, and especially lack of “support” from the state/county.

If an uneducated, unskilled, unmarried, young mother is struggling to support her kids, then according to this author, it is the state’s fault. He says, “low-income mothers have been placed in an untenable position” by the State of NC.

Nowhere in the article does the author place blame on the mother, nor responsibility. The author says the State must provide higher wages, child tax credits, food stamps, Medicaid/universal medical insurance, childcare, family leave, and unemployment benefits to mothers. And this does not count Biden’s Stimulus payments and rent payment moratoriums.

I do not agree! If the State of NC provided all of those services, mothers would not work. They would “net” more income staying at home.

Family planning, family structure, parenting skills, and education are the answers. Read just one essay from James Heckman, Nobel Prize Economist. Low-income mothers are mostly Black and living without husbands and the husband’s income. Just having dual incomes per family would solve many of these problems.

Education of women is an excellent long-term solution. See below.

I believe this chart is a very good summary. The State of NC should put support $$$$’s toward the education of low-income women. Help young women avoid pregnancy, graduate high school, learn a skill or trade, choose life partners carefully, and live healthy lives. This is possible! It just requires education and learning.

NFL Helmet Messages!

I watched a lot of football over the weekend. Playoff games! Ate wings and drank Truly!

Could not help to notice the various messages of the back of player helmets. I think the NFL should stop messaging. But, if it continues, here are some of my suggestions:

—–Study Hard

—–Learn Math

—–Read Books

—–Graduate

—–Help Family

—–No Drugs

—–Get a Job

—–Say No to Gangs

—–Help Police

—–Stop Crime

Democrats run the most dangerous cities in America!

Violent crime is murder, rape, aggravated assault, armed robbery, manslaughter and most domestic violence. The FBI classifies these crimes as “intent to commit serious bodily harm.”

This table shows what the Democratic party is doing about crime. Nothing! Where is the outrage from minorities and women? Most homicides occur against Blacks. Chicago had 695 homicides in 2022. Blacks were the majority of victims. Where is the outrage?

Yet, year after year, Blacks continue to vote for Democrats. I do not understand their logic.

There are hundreds of cities run by Republicans. But only 1 city, Jacksonville, Fla. is on this chart. The data is clear.

Footnote–most of the mayors from these cities are Black! Same with Police Chiefs!

National Wildlife Federation has turned radically liberal!

The National Wildlife Federation was founded in 1938 by Henry Wallace, a white man and Vice President of the US. The Federation is a non-profit, with 35% funding from private individuals, mostly white families, and 20% funding from major corporations. Much of the wildlife land in the US. was donated by wealthy white families, like Muir and Dupont. Almost all the land grants from the federal government to establish national parks happened during the presidency of white male presidents. Teddy Roosevelt is a grand example.

The same is true for state parks and city parks. Much of those areas were the direct result of white men and women in leadership positions with grants from white families.

Our National Parks and National Forests are wonderful. I have visited at least 24 in 12 states. Their beauty and grounds can be experienced by all who visit. In my 50+ years of enjoying the outdoors, I have never heard of anyone being excluded.

Yet, the National Wildlife Federation is condemning white people in their recent quarterly magazine. This is an outrage! Here are some excerpts from the Winter 2023 publication:

-“claiming our birthright…Black people are transforming conservation”

-“that relationship (Black Americans and the land) became deeply intertwined with oppression and unspeakable violence.”

-“Black researchers, writers, and environmental justice activists are changing the face of conservation.” Why is it necessary to single out 1 group?????

-“being out in nature often has not been safe for Black people.”

-“promoting events such as Taking Nature Black.”

-“Part of my childhood was camping trips, fishing, and ski trips in public outdoor spaces. It was only later that I realized it was unusual for a Black family.”

-“Historically, the conservation movement has tended to be insular and exclusionary, serving the interests of white male conservatists, and not allowing space for diverse perspectives.”

Why does the National Wildlife Federation find it necessary to condemn white males? Why does the NWF single out Black people? If Black people want to become involved with nature, I suggest they participate in the annual “Spring Clean-up of Rivers and Streams.” I have been involved with that effort for 6 years and I never saw a Black family being involved. It’s all volunteers!

Liberals have taken over another facet of America. Too Bad. I will do my best to see that their funding suffers.

Waffle House Fight Club!

My new reality TV show!

I have officially submitted my idea for a new reality show on Netflix. I call it “Waffle House Fight Club.” Each week the show will feature the best fights from that restaurant chain, with interviews from eyewitnesses and analysis of the fight from guest thugs. The show will be a combination of Jerry Springer and WWE!

I propose to air the show on Friday nights so sports bars can play the week’s best fights. The Waffle House has 2100 locations serving late night breakfast in 25 states, mostly in the South. Of course, the show will have many local celebrities like ” Mash Brown, Cookonator, Master G, Counter Boy, Grit, The Scrambler, and Mama Link.”

I have begun to sign sponsors for the show. So far, Everlast, Nike, Folgers, Jimmy Dean, and Jiffy Mix have signed letters of commitment.

The selection process for the show’s host has started. Some good choices could be Will Smith, Alvin Kamara, Rhonda Rousey, flight attendants from American Airlines, and a few high school teachers from Chicago.

Wish me luck!

The Media is going after Va. Governor Glenn Youngkin!

Glenn Youngkin was elected Governor of Virginia in the fall of 2021 and took office on January 15, 2022. He is the first Republican governor in Virginia in over 20 years. Currently, his approval rating is almost 60%.

Yet, the liberal media, including The Charlotte “Fish wrap,” is publishing slanted and negative articles about Youngkin’s agenda. The liberal press does not like his position on “gender-fluid” students. Youngkin believes parents have to approve when a student wishes to change his/her name or gender on official school records. I certainly agree with Youngkin.

As governor, Youngkin has proposed and is enacting many excellent policies for Virginia. Here are some examples:

-Complete overhaul to State’s mental health and substance abuse programs

-Adding 2000 more police officers

-Add more teachers and nurses

-Pledged that every high school (623) in Virginia offer classes in higher math

-Spending $685 million on preserving the Chesapeake Bay and investing on low carbon energy

-investing $15 million on opioid abatement. $38 million for mobile crisis teams

-$1 billion on tax cuts including lowering the State’s personal income tax

-Lowering the States corporate income tax to 5%

-Funding programs to fight the Fentanyl poisoning risks among kids and teens.

Governor Youngkin has pledged to get “all of this done” during his 4 years in office. My advice: charge ahead! Ignore the liberal media! And Best Wishes for Success!

The Truth about Police Shootings in America!

Black political activists and “race baiters” use police shootings to stir up this country. Everyone knows that. These self-serving bigots appear in public and make grand generalizations about America’s oppressed minorities, usually Blacks. These same fools use the police shooting of a Black man to claim that America is systemically racist. Here is the truth.

In 2021, the police in the US. made 4,530,000 arrests. Regrettably, during those arrests the police killed 1,051 people. That percentage is .00023 per arrest! Approximately 200 of those killed were Black. And a certain number of those killed were “suicide by cop.”

That same year, 129 police officers were killed in the line of duty. Most of those deaths were felonious assaults, some even premeditated ambushes. The prior year, 2020, police deaths were 46! That is a 280% increase.

Any deaths during arrests and deaths of police officers while on duty are tragic.

As you can see from the above graph, deaths of unarmed suspects are at record lows. Most occur to white men. Approximately 11 unarmed Blacks were killed by police last year during the course of 4.5 million arrests! This is tragic, but not a sign of “systemic racism.” My research concludes that these 11deaths resulted from bad training, accidents/mistakes or committed by “bad cops.” Of course, there are bad cops just like there are bad teachers, coaches, dentists, lawyers, ministers, Congressmen, plumbers, judges, nurses, and auto mechanics. In 2021 there were 697,195 full-time police officers in the US. If 10 were “bad cops” then that percent is .0000143 of the total.

The shooting of an unarmed Black man in New York City is not a sign of systemic racism across America. If a male dentist in Houston sexually molests a patient that does not mean all dentists in the US. are molesters.

During 2021, the US. experienced 19,600 murders. A vast majority of these murders occurred in our large (Democratic) cities like St. Louis, Milwaukee, Baltimore, New Orleans, Atlanta, Memphis, Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia, Newark, Oakland, San Bernadino, Cleveland, Kansas City and Little Rock. It is tragic that a vast majority of these murders were committed by repeat offenders. It is also tragic that a large number of victims were Black.

Also, my research shows that 1200 felonious assaults were committed by illegal immigrants in 2121. And the police arrested a total 10,763 illegal immigrants last year for various crimes. These numbers have increased dramatically over the last 2 years.

It is blatantly obvious to me that serious crime does occur in the US and that the amount of crime is increasing. It is equally obvious to me that the police are not the problem! They are the answer.

Words and phrases from the Democrats!

The democratic party leaders are very good at controlling the narrative. A central team from the DNC, White House, senior advisors, and key Congressional leaders decide the words to use when in public. That group is very strict. And-they makeup words and phrases, often these bits of narrative are hard to understand. Here are some examples:

-Climate Justice- no clue?

-Inclusive clean energy- not sure what this means but does sound “cool”

-Racial roads and trees. how is this possible?

-Disinformation (propaganda issued by the controlling party)

-Dreamers (this is very clever)

-Insurrection (what?) Guy in Viking horns

-Climate czar (private jets)

-Transitory inflation (Yellen is a fool)

-Native born Blacks (minorities in Major league baseball)

-Domestic terrorists (Trump supporters-70 million citizens)

-Covid relief bill (spending millions on pet projects)

-Inflation Reduction Act (spending more $$$$)

-Life’s Struggles (replaces SAT for college admissions)

-Gaslighting (bullying)

-Threat to democracy (opposition’s point of view)

-Woke investing (using social programs and environmental responsibility as criteria to select investments) Energy companies are being boycotted-UGH!!!!!

-Virtue signaling (social/political correctness when speaking)
