I will have another choice this year and I will make the right decision.
My resolution is to remember the right decision and move on from the bad.
ITEM 1: The New York Times ran an editorial, "Every Day Is Jan. 6 Now," making the Capitol protest an official Reichstag Fire to enable the fascist in Washington and Upper Manhattan to repeal our constitutional rights.
We don't need Donald Trump. He's too nice. I want a president who will shut down Twitter and Facebook. I do not want to get even. I want to take command. I never want to be in the situation we are now in where I am a second-class citizen.
ITEM 2: The Telegraph reported, "Polar bears are being forced to migrate from America to Russia due to climate change."
It's not climate change. It's freedom. Putin doesn't make them wear a mask or get a vax.
Cool picture, though.
The photo is from 2017.
They are feasting on a whale.
ITEM 3: Gab sent me an email, "Twitter banned Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene this morning. Thankfully Congresswoman Greene was smarter than many of her colleagues because she got on Gab over a year ago and built up a tremendous following over hundreds of thousands of people. Her ban from Twitter should come as no surprise. Once Twitter crossed the Rubicon and banned a sitting President there was nothing stopping them from banning each and every Republican from the platform without thinking twice."
If Gab were doing its job right, I would not use Twitter. I have tried Gab over the years and have been disappointed every time. I gave it $99 last year. Not this year. Nobody goes there because there's nobody there.
ITEM 4: Twitter suspended MTG for stating 18,000 people died from covid vaccines.
She cited CDC's own numbers.
Either you are for free speech or you are for tyranny. There is no middle ground.
ITEM 5: Fox reported, "Cleveland-area carjackers have ‘declared war,’ prosecutor says, after police officer shot dead
"Cleveland police Officer Shane Bartek, 25, was fatally shot while off duty around 6 p.m. Friday in the city’s Kamm’s Corners neighborhood."
They are carjacking police officers.
I lived near Kamm's Corner for a few years. It was so peaceful, it was boring.
But that was 40-plus years ago.
ITEM 6: Deutsche Welle reported, "The US removed access for Ethiopia, Mali and Guinea from a duty-free trade program on Saturday, due to their recent alleged human rights violations and recent coups.
"President Joe Biden had threatened to remove Ethiopia from the African Growth and Opportunity Act in November, due to human rights violations in the Tigray region. Mali and Guinea have been targeted due to recent coups."
Such a tough man.
Biden is taking on these itty-bitty countries. When is he going to take someone his own size like Red China? Its abuses are worse.
ITEM 7: Attention LuAnn.
Fox reported, "Health ministry officials in Quebec, Canada, had their tails between their legs Saturday after facing backlash for new coronavirus-related curfew rules that don’t allow dog owners to walk their pets between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.
"A previous version of the curfew rules allowed residents to help their pets take care of business in the overnight hours, provided they remained within 1 kilometer (3,280 feet) of their home, CTV News reported. Why the exception wasn’t included in the newest rules wasn’t clear, the outlet reported.
"'What if you can’t walk your dog [before curfew] because of work or other restraints?' asked Louise Makovsky, a dog owner and animal activist, according to CTV News."
Dog Bites Fascism is a news story.
ITEM 8: National Review reported, "Hong Kong Media Outlet Shuts Down Days after Raid on Pro-Democracy Website."
None of our American media need fear shutting down because they all blindly support our federal government.
ITEM 9: Just the News reported, "Insurance CEO says deaths up 40% among working age people, and it's not just covid."
Shutting down hospitals over fears of overcrowding in 2020 -- which rarely happened -- reduced early detection of cancer and other life-saving treatments. Politicians deemed colonoscopies to be non-essential based on advice from bureaucrats with medical degrees.
A year later, non-covid patients are filling up ICU beds.
America needs a complete review of this mess when Republicans regain control of the government.
ITEM 10: The New York Post reported, "A 28-year-old man died when he jumped a subway turnstile in Queens on Sunday and struck his head on the floor, cops said.
"'The man was attempting to evade the fare' at the Forest Hills-71st Avenue train station around 6:45 a.m. when he hopped the turnstile, a police spokesman said."
How sad to kill yourself over the price of a subway ride.
Look for liberals to demand softer floors.
ITEM 11: News.com.au reported, "Ghislaine Maxwell’s brother says she won’t rat out for lighter sentence.
"Ghislaine Maxwell may be linked to a number of alleged co-conspirators, but according to her brother, she’ll remain tight-lipped on the truth."
That's an interesting spin.
The reality is federal prosecutors do not want her talking.
The brother said, "Prosecution confirmed no plea bargain offers were made or received [before the trial]. I expect that position to be maintained."
She does not want a lighter sentence.
She wants to live.
ITEM 12: Glamour reported, "The Harry Potter Special Hilariously Mistook Emma Roberts For Emma Watson."
Maybe they should have asked J.K. Rowling which is which. She created Harry Potter. Oh wait, she has been banned from these celebrations for saying women menstruate.
ITEM 13: Zero Hedge reported, "A decade ago, Washingtonian pundits were buzzing about how New York's junior Senator, Kirsten Gillibrand, might someday eclipse her onetime mentor, Hillary Clinton, to become the most powerful woman in the Democratic Party. But in the years since, the senator has seen her public profile shrink remarkably after her 2020 presidential campaign fizzled before it even got off the ground. She still holds one of the most powerful elected positions in the country, but whatever she had been trying to prove with this strategy, it has clearly backfired.
"Because New York has a new celebrity politician who is younger and (arguably) better-looking than Gillibrand (even if her political chops aren't up to par). And the message to Gillibrand from her Democratic colleagues is getting increasingly emphatic: either step it up, or step aside and get ready for AOC to launch and win a primary campaign for the Senate seat just like she did when she challenged Joe Crowley for his seat in the House."
The seat is up in 2024.
Hmm.
That means AOC would give Schumer a pass in this year's Senate race.
ITEM 14: The Post Millennial reported, "In a viral video that has spread across Twitter, a transgender TikTok user accuses a baby of being transphobic, even causing the baby to cry at one point.
"The person in the video accuses a baby of liking them more with long hair as opposed to short, which they say makes them look more feminine. The person said that they confronted this baby about it, which caused the baby to cry."
So, if we are born transphobic, that means the onus is on others to accept transphobia.
Isn't that how it works?
Born this way, and all that.
ITEM 15: Bloomberg reported, "The Bloomberg Commodity Spot Index, which tracks 23 energy, metal and crop futures, is ending 2021 with a 27% gain, the biggest since the 2009 recovery from the great financial crisis. Prices for everything from gasoline and corn to copper and lumber have soared, making it more expensive to fill up the tank, build houses, eat meat, manufacture cars and heat homes.
"The rollout of vaccination campaigns and easing restrictions on travel and gatherings led to a surge in demand for raw materials at a time when supplies were still largely restrained due to lack of capital spending, weather-driven crop losses and logistic bottlenecks. Widespread shortages drove a rally that was particularly acute in commodity futures for near-term delivery, making the market even more attractive for funds already looking for exposure to energy, food and metals as an inflation hedge.
"As 2022 dawns, though, there are growing doubts about how far commodities can keep rising as a projected slowdown in economic growth, especially in China, and a rebound in supplies will likely weigh on prices. This year’s rally has put inflation at the center-stage of policy-making, with central bankers considering scaling back the massive injections of cash used to revive economies during the heights of the pandemic. The specter of rising interest rates also means commodities could appeal less to investors."
Hmm.
So inflation just cures itself. It magically shows up and then vanishes, according to Bloomberg.
That $4.99 a pound hamburger must be my imagination.
FINALLY, Morning Consult polled voters and reported, "Only Democrats Give Major Weight to Jan. 6 Attack."
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha (breathe) Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha (breathe) Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Ah yes, the "insurrection" in which people stormed the castle carrying nothing but the American flag.
Well, as the song says, thy banner makes tyranny tremble...
The poll also shows another reason people tune out the news. Often the news is about things people care little about presented in an unappealing manner.
Item 9 - "...when Republicans regain control of the government."
ReplyDeleteThe trouble is the same Republicans would be taking control of the same government, most likely with the same results because their private clients are the same people.
As the meme says, "What if I told you the left wing and the right wing are part of the same bird."
DeleteAnd the bird in this case is a vulture.
DeleteMany republicans and almost certainly RNC 'leadership' will also get way over confident, believing that they did it without Trump or Trump voters.
DeleteAnd then they'll shove Nikki! or Pence or Christie or Rubio down our throats.
Waud, And here's how they'll do it. If, say, DeSantis gets nominated, they'll do what they did to Reagan. They forced him to take Bush as his VP or they wouldn't give him any campaign money. Then, they loaded his administration with Bushies, which is why his domestic programs were all slow walked.
DeleteI have only one resolution: Lean on the Lord like you’ve never leaned before, Otto.
ReplyDeleteAmen. And lean not on your own understanding.
Delete"Only Democrats Give Major Weight to Jan. 6 Attack."
ReplyDeleteThis is Trump playing 3-D chess. He cleverly manipulated the Dems to focus their entire energy on something no one cares about. LOL

ReplyDelete#6 .. And none of those nations have a Muslim majority, although "Good Ali, its Mali" is close
ReplyDelete#11 They have to be a little less blatant with Ghislaine. You cant two ArKancides of high profile detainees in too short a period. The flyovers might really REALLY wake up .... Gonna have to let Ghislaine spend a few years out of sight so she drops off the radar screen.
Then, who knows? Maybe she slips out to freedom unnoticed or maybe she chokes on some overcooked roast beef. I dont think they can pull the Vince Foster scenario again. For one thing, women rarely commit suicide by shooting themselves in the back of the head
"...in the back of the head"...twice.
DeleteItem #11: G's father, Robert, was a rampaging bully / master thief who bankrupted 17,000 people in Britain.
ReplyDelete(This good news flew in the window after he committed suicide in 1991. He also took Goldman Sachs to the cleaners. See the relevant chapter in "Goldman Sachs, The Culture of Success," Lisa Endlich [1959- ]; Alfred A. Knopf 1999 hardcover; avoid all the rest of this shameless, stolid hagiography.)
His two sons got into all sorts of trouble and beat the rap, but losing their handsome good looks by the time they had been "exonerated" (a legal term that quite often has no basis in reality). They now look like vagrants.
Most of "The Happy Hack, A Memoir of Fleet Street in Its Heyday" by Mike Molloy [1940- ] (John Blake Publishing Limited 2016 paperback) is a crashing bore.
However, his chapters on being forced to work for the new owner of his newspaper (probably to protect his pension) are quite good.
(Whether or not that pension survived Maxwell looting the pension funds to prop up the newspaper share price was not mentioned. If you were writing a memoir and lost your pension thanks to your boss, would you mention it?)
To avoid The Nothing of the book's pre-Maxwell pages, one wishes that Mike had:
1) Been forced to work with Maxwell by age 18/page ten, and that ---
2) Mike had not waited until his was an enfeebled intellect before getting around to writing his memoirs.
Having read his, for the first time, I am now grateful for memory loss.
Not to mention his connection to Israeli intelligence. This is the world we live in; it ain't pretty.
DeleteMaxwell was instrumental in Israel obtaining 50 Spitfires through Czechoslovakia which helped turn the tide of battle in 1948. Sometimes, you have to take the good with the bad.
DeleteThe people in prison in DC care about it. I wish more so-called Republicans cared about them. When's the last time one of them even mentioned it? They are a disgrace. Will replacing one Republican with another change anything? I wish it would, but after decades of betrayal, I doubt it.
ReplyDeleteEven if it were for "show", the House and Senate Republicans, daily, could introduce a resolution condemning the treatment of the political prisoners. But.....oh, no, chasing lobbyist "loot" is more important!!!!
DeleteMy representative sucks. In a safe seat. Could speak out. Not a peep. He will be here in the coming months. I will ask about why he is not speaking out on this and other matters. If I am no longer posting soon after that, you will know why.
DeleteSL, Is there a more important issue than freeing political prisoners? It's outrageous in the extreme and, yet, from Republicans we get...crickets. They should be pounding on the podium every single day.
DeleteOpener, several years back I resolved to quit making New Year resolutions. That is the only New Year resolution I've managed to keep.
ReplyDelete#14 - This woman sounds nuts. Clearly, she can't be much of an expert in early child care if she doesn't realize that the baby probably was upset because looked different, period. Babies expect us to look the same. What a moron. And possibly a mentally ill moron to boot.
ReplyDeleteWhen my little brother's girls were small, he had a beard. One day he was persuaded to cut it. The girls stood right there in the bathroom while he shaved, watching unblinking. When he was done he wiped his face and bent down so they could see. Both ran away screaming and refused to acknowledge him for several days.
DeleteIn this case I think the kid spotted a phony.
My grandson (just turned one) cries when I have my hat on.
DeleteIt would seem insurrections are the new global thing: over the week end there were videos of insurrections in Amsterdam, Belfast, Saarbrücken (Germany), Italy over CCP virus jab passports. Looks like an insurrection is when the populace is peaceful but the government violently opposes.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be a fly on the wall of the Davos war room. "Are police dogs and batons enough?" "Is it too soon to declare martial law?" "What do you think, guys, shall we go to DEFCON 3?"
DeleteThe COVID emergency is over when people decide they have had enough. That means mass demonstrations and practicing Irish democracy one small act at a time. And the populace has been peaceful and governments will be violent to shut them down.
DeletePoopsie, our overlords change definitions of words all the time. Why not include "insurrection" or as some of the pundits called it, "erection"?
Delete#6. Guinea Ethiopia and Mali could only come up with $10,000 in bribe money, not enough to buy a Hunter original.
ReplyDeleteFor those people who want a full picture of the CCP virus, it's prevention, treatment and how government forces have aligned to block treatment, information and
ReplyDeleteproduce mass formation psychosis, the interviews with Dr McCullough and Dr Malone are eye-openers.
Dr Malone is on Spotify interviewed by Joe Rogan.
EpochTV (free on Roku) has a 2 parter with Dr McCullough and Dark Horse Podcast has great interviews with these doctors and Dr Pierre Kory but you have to search for them because Apple refused to number them and YouTube banned them.
Couldn't get Spotify to work on my computer. But the Dr. Malone interview is up on Rumble:
Deletehttps://rumble.com/vrtg8m-robert-malone-on-joe-rogan-podcast.html
These are long interviews, but Joe Rogan is the best host out there--he lets his guest speak without interruption. Absolutely devastating material to TPTB.
We can hope that the old saying about the internet is true: that it treats censorship as damage and routes around it. Let's hope that every attempt to silence these voices only results in better publicity for them.
Item 2: “Putin doesn't make them wear a mask or get a vax.” How did we get to the point that the leader of the free world is Vladimir Putin?
ReplyDeleteItem 9: “deaths up 40% among working age people, and it's not just covid.” He’s wrong. It is just covid. The increase in cancer deaths is due to not being able to get chemo and radiation because of covid. The increase in suicides is due to lockdowns and job loss because of covid. Grams and gramps are dying in nursing homes that are required to admit sick people because of covid. Regular Americans are being killed by thugs released from jail because of covid. Need I go on?
Item 10: “A 28-year-old man died when he jumped a subway turnstile in Queens” He won a Darwin Award. The good news is that he won’t be passing his genes to the next generation.
How did we get to the point that the leader of the free world is Vladimir Putin?
DeletePower attracts sociopaths.
Weirdly enough, I prefer Putin to Biden. And, yes I am aware of Putin's murderous tendencies.
DeleteKinda' like Hillary's murderous tendencies. Fauci is different. He's in the mass murderer category.
DeleteFauci is Dr. Mengele.
DeleteI agree with you, LuAnn. If I were in a Democrat hellhole like Newsom’s California, Whitmer’s Michigan, Hochul’s New York, Brown’s Oregon, or Ige’s Hawaii, I would be sorely tempted to repatriate to Russia, at least until January, 2025.
DeleteFJB is trying to turn the entire USA into a Democrat hellhole, but he’s being blocked at every turn. Courts are rejecting his vax mandates. Manchin and Sinema are blocking his pork barrel spending bills. The Senate has rejected several of his appointments. And the Democrat takeover of elections will soon go down in flames. We’ll have another decade of hurt before we can repair his damage, but we will recover.
Have to disagree with your #9 synopsis Randy... those examples were not 'because of Covid', but because of the Marxist not letting a good crisis go to waste...
Delete#13. She needs to challenge Chuck. By 2024 people will be on to her brain dead BS
ReplyDeleteIt's always tough to realize momentum once lost is tough to regain. The leftist wet dream is playing out its last bit of energy. She could get Schumer now I think, because the energy is still with her. But in 2024 the progressive left will be doomed, forced to take even loonier positions to rally the troops. C'mon AOC, take out Chuckie. And then in the Senate she will become meaningless, because her game doesn't play nearly as well up there.
DeleteAOC is running out of political juice. Schumer would win in a rout since the press will back him, not her. Wouldn't take much press in the MSM sites to reveal what a daft loser she really is. Schumer is legacy Democrat. He's not going anywhere. The elites have already bought and paid for him so he's not going anywhere soon.
DeleteSchumer represents Wall Street. Now that's power.
DeleteUnfortunately, I think AOC is here to stay. I wish it weren't so, but.
DeleteDr Malone is scheduled to be on Steve Bannon's War Room today 10 am to noon.
ReplyDelete"Putin doesn't make them wear a mask or get a vax."
ReplyDelete2022 will be the year of Putin. Russia is back and ready to assert itself against a once-great power in decline.
Russian wants a Multipolar World Order in which they are one of the poles, which is unacceptable to the Monopolar/Pax Americana world of the US empire.
Russia is pretty much doomed. They have managed to create a sense of country in the Ukraine, and amazing feat. They are a third world economy with an increasingly declining first world military, that is running out of new citizens to fill its ranks. Their borders are pretty much indefensible at this point - and supposedly they have told China that if they attempt to take advantage of this by taking eastern parts of Russia for the natural resources they have, Moscow will rain nukes down on them.
DeleteRussia will go off into the night. The advantage they have is that much of Europe is doing the same thing. Demographics are a bitch.
Isn't Red China in the same boat? Economy, demographics, military, etc.?
DeleteDemographics are a bitch.
DeleteRussia is only doomed in the low run, Europe in the short run, meaning 2022.
Putin has played a losing hand masterfully.
Demographically, Russia and China are both in really bad shape. Although I don't trust Russia, I view China as far worse.
DeleteJust read that Evergrande the big Real Estate Developer has pulled its shares off of the Hong Kong exchange. so China's got bigger problems..
DeletePutin however has misplayed the Ukraine situation. He has allowed anti-Russia sentiment to coalesce into a pro-Ukrainian identity, that will stop him from his efforts to subvert the country. He has created a hostile country right on his border. A border he cannot protect long-term.
DeletePrediction for 2022 - Someone we know will end the year still hoping for a Bentley in his future. Sorry, Don!!
ReplyDeletere: item 8 - Media are just an extension of government. That what the profession has devolved to, sadly.
ReplyDeleteOther way around. Govt runs media in China. Media runs govt in the US.
DeleteAgreed re: U.S. In Canada, they are simply an extension of government parroting the government's messages.
Deletere: item 14 - That is baby harassment. Plain and simple.
ReplyDeletere: item 9 - Any intelligent individual could have figured out that deferring cancer and other serious appointments for COVID would cause that. But then, we have been dealing with bureaucrats leading the way.
ReplyDelete"Shutting down hospitals over fears of overcrowding in 2020 -- which rarely happened -- reduced early detection of cancer"
ReplyDeleteThere's little we can do about cancer which are mostly "caused" by aging. The "War on Cancer" is another war we lost.
Meanwhile, medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death. There's no more dangerous place than a hospital.
We also just spent $100 billion and killed hundreds of thousands responding to AIDS, which doesn't even exist, as RFK Jr has pointed out.
Yes, the war on cancer has been lost. It is sad and tragic that cancer has gained the upper hand through fear of COVID.
DeleteActually - and I figure covid hospitalizations have negatively impacted that - cancer survival rates have kept increasing. Treatments get better.
DeleteAre their errors in hospitals? You bet. And this has to go with how they are organized and how their executives are compensated. You could fix alot of this by either forcing them to justify their non-profit status by acting like one, or stripping it away and taxing the hell out of them like everyone else, as well as their foundations that just act as a funnel for hiding excess revenue.
I didn't know that hospitals in the U.S. are designated as non-profit. Interesting.
DeletePeople think the corruption and incompetence of the medical-industrial complex is something new. It has been this way for decades. Only now are people realizing it. Big Pharma has brain-washed the public.
DeleteOh, yeah. I think the situation is even worse in Canada where health care is "free."
Delete"cancer survival rates have kept increasing."
DeleteThis the most misleading stat in medicine. They survive longer because the cancer is detected earlier, not from the "treatment." Gilbert Welch is a expert on cancer stats and has written about his.
Also, the stats don't include patients killed by the "treatment," which is swept under the rug.
Yeah - I am familiar with the argument. You can argue it either way, we just don't have a real great way to do that. AS we wipe out other killers, the ones we still have are identified earlier, and get the chance to kill more.
DeleteAt this point I'm still just going to use the standard stats because. And of course, when does the T cell reprogramming process get refined such that we don't have to almost kill you via chemo and radiation, to try and save you.
In finally:Ah yes, the "insurrection" in which people stormed the castle carrying nothing but the American flag.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to use the always added "deadly insurrection" in which the only person who died was a unarmed civilian shot by a cop who was excused for doing so.
I don't believe that average folks believe in this "deadly insurrection" tale.
DeleteI have a bunch of family members that do, LuAnne. Of course, they all live in lefty hell holes.
DeleteNow that I believe. Lefty voters believe in this stuff but surely not common sense folks?
Delete...and in the video made by the Antifa rioter four or five police were behind her and immediately rushed forward to give aid.
Deletere: item 7 (my favorite!): Yup, bureaucrats forgot that people need to walk their dogs when they've got to go, despite what time it is. All businesses, except for pharmacies, gas stations and convenience stores (known as dépanneurs in French)are closed on Sundays for three weeks. This is in addition to the other business restrictions to "save" our healthcare system. I guess that is COVID's busiest day to spread, hence the closures. Don, if you are going to activate the Smurf bridgade, please don't send the crazies to Quebec/Montreal. We've got enough to deal with. Please send them to Toronto where they will fit right in. On a happier note, I bought my galette des rois (almond puff pastry cake) this morning. It is a traditional French/French Canadian dessert to celebrate Epiphany and more commonly now is a New Year's dessert. Trying to stay positive although given the insanity I am living in, it is challenging.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing - enjoy it!
DeleteIt is totally yummy! For average cooks like me, it is far too difficult to make. A small one is $38 (Cdn) expensive but it is a once a year purchase.
Deleteformidable! BTW, who got the fève?
DeleteThat sounds yummy, LuAnn!
DeleteWe'll find out tonight, who gets it. But when you buy one, it's not a bean. It's a miniature statue that you have to be aware of or you could choke to death.
Deletebien sur, mon amie...my wife is French and the tradition survives encore in the Lorraine from where she hails...the first time around, I was warned about the "trinket" so as to avoid such "unpleasantness" - apparently it is not considered good form (in some circles) to choke to death on Epiphany, go figure
DeleteBonne année!
Bonne année. Choking not a good thing on Ephiphany or any other day.
Delete#9: what we need is legislation curtailing the use of “health emergency” power at all levels of government. It's clear these laws are too broad and open-ended and subject to abuse. We’ve already seen some politicans refer to climate change, gun violence and racism as public health crises. No chance of this at the federal and blue state levels, but it seems like something Republicans should bet behind. Except most of them like having unconstrained power too.
ReplyDeleteAgree totally. These so-called emergency powers are far, far too broad and have been subject to abuse. This pandemic has certainly brought out the Stasi, the Karen and the totalitarian within many, especially politicians and health bureaucrats.
Delete11. One of Ghislaine Maxwell's prosecutors was Jim Comey's daughter.
ReplyDeleteYep. Just another part of the big club that we ain't in.
DeleteToday: Biden is less popular with Blacks.

Yep...
Delete3&4 - Twitter is not gotten better since Dorsey left. It may be even worse.

Hoping PDJT brings a winner to the table.
"Hoping PDJT brings a winner to the table."
DeleteRight. I wonder when that will happen. I hope for that, too. But, I have to tell ya', as a conservative, I'm pretty exhausted from hoping.
2 - "Polar bears are being forced to migrate from America to Russia due to climate change." There's a way of dealing with made-up nonsense like this. Convert it to "Polar bears are being forced to migrate from America to Russia due to an alien invasion from outer space." That puts the whole thing in proper context.
ReplyDelete7 - Concentrate the francophone loonies in Montreal and keep them away from Quebec City (so they don't ruin it).
9 - In at least one U.S. state, ERs are being swamped by people who... have no symptoms but tested positive. Grow up, please.
13 - AOC won't run for a Senate seat unless it's a sure thing. She's following the bernie sanders (i - lunar orbit) plan - use an "office" for the title, salary, soapbox, travel budget, and grift... to become a multimillionaire whose only responsibility is regular hyperventilating about nothing.
15 - That Bloomberg editorial sounds a heck of a lot like the old soviet-era stuff blaming another poor harvest on everything but the real causes...
FINALLY - Like everything leftist, they NEED this sort of stuff for their self-image - that though they are really a bunch of cowardly losers, they NEED these incidents so that they can tell themselves that they are awesome and smart and incredibly avant-garde - so avant-garde that all the stupid reactionaries plot against them because of it. Yes, they really thinking like that (they live in bubbles).
re: Having lived in Quebec City, it has more than its share of crazies, too. The tourist zones are fine, but that's not really living there. When you live there, you don't bother with that. Then, you see what the place can really be like.
DeleteItem 9: I had cancer, Covid and a bulging disk problem in Feb. of 2020 while out of the country. I made it back, only to have the surgery for cancer put off until June, and the back issue until August - just because of possible overcrowding. I went there for cat scans, mri's and to be covid tested a number of times from May - August. The hospital, a very large one, was a ghost time the whole time. Apparently they had a covid section but everywhere I went in the hospital was a ghost town.

ReplyDeleteWe don't need Donald Trump. He's too nice. I want a president who will shut down Twitter and Facebook. I do not want to get even. I want to take command. I never want to be in the situation we are now in where I am a second-class citizen."
This.
Read somewhere this morning that January 6th is more like Tianneman Square. Tyranny and oppression of dissent by the government. You expect that of China but not here.
ReplyDeleteDonald John Trump is still our president.
ReplyDelete1: Sounds like Jeffery wrote that.
PS Some things you have to do for yourself.
3: Don't use Twat, either.
4: It's not free speech, it's intelligence. If Twat shuts you down for using the CDC's numbers against it, you're a fool to use it.
8: None of our American media need fear shutting down because they all blindly support the Red Chinese government.
FIFY
12: If she wants to live, she'd better have something hidden somewhere that goes off on news of her death.
Otherwise, she's a ticking time bomb.
FINALLY: If we have to be reminded of how awful it was, we're winning.
Nobody had to be reminded of Pearl Harbor.
Ed, You are correct about number 1. I did write that. I changed my handle. Nowadays, the "AlwaysWrong" bit seems wrong.
