UPDATE ON KNEE REHAB PROGRESS

Monday was the seven-week marker since knee surgery. To give you an idea of how this has its ups and downs; on the day of surgery I checked in about 8:00 am and went to surgery about 10:00 am. Surgery lasted about an hour. I exited recovery about 1:00 pm and walked out of the hospital with walker. My leg was wrapped in a full-length leg brace so I couldn’t bend it. Managed to get myself into the family chariot and my dearly beloved drove me home. I had no idea what was going to follow. Well, here I am 7 weeks later, I can walk (with the aid of a cane) and I can drive again. Make no mistake, this surgery is not for sissies. I lucked out, got a great physical therapist which is the key to total recovery. I’m on the road to a normal life, it improves slowly, but it improves every day.

VERY IMPORTANT LEGISLATION IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW WITH A HIDDEN SURPRISE.

I have been an avid car enthusiast since I was knee high to a wiener dog. I have owned just about every kind of car ever made in my life. Sometime around 1960 California and a few other states started passing laws to clean up the exhaust on autos. The early emissions laws were sorely needed. I lived in So. Cal form 1963 to 1990, so I experienced the horrific smog that inundated the L.A. Basin. It was brutal, by midafternoon your eyes were burning and watering, it was miserable.

To their credit, the state of California cleaned up the air pretty darn well in the next 20 odd years. The early emission devices on cars robbed them of their power and they were miserable to drive. But the automakers got better, made the cars cleaner, and brought back the horsepower from the old days. During these times the California Air Resources Board was formed (CARB). CARB was the driving force behind all of the gas mileage and emission standards all across the USA. As usual, when bureaucrats are charge, they justify their existence by constantly writing more and more regulations that get crazier and crazier. They have burdened the auto manufacturers with so many regulations that we can barely afford to buy their products.

This mindset that internal combustion engines were evil and had to be eliminated came from this never-ending attack by CARB. So, the state that can’t produce enough electricity to keep your air conditioner running thought the answer was electric cars. The power grid in this country, especially California is years away from being able to support a huge number of electric vehicles, when coupled with all of the other power needs of homes and industries.

The next bright idea these geniuses had was to eliminate diesel trucks and busses by 2035. As a matter of fact, California along with five or six other states have outlawed the sale of heavy diesel trucks, busses and motorhomes as of January 1st, 2025. Right now!! The motorhome industry was caught completely off guard thinking they would be exempt. Nope, these morons shut them down as well.

But, since we have a new sheriff in town, and a whole bunch of deputies that support him, all of this stuff is close to going away. The House just passed bill that will end this craziness once and for all. I am embedding a couple of videos by a guy that keeps up on all of these details. See below.

This never-ending river of regulations has always been about one thing, killing Americas dependance on the internal combustion engine, and killing the oil and gas industry that the left hates with passion. The left has this fairytale dream of America running on wind and solar and unicorn piss. It was never going to be achievable in the foreseeable future. Maybe not at all. If you take all of the different forms of energy and use them all in a sane and balanced format, that is the real answer. Anything else is wishful thinking at best.

I believe we truly are in the “Golden Age of America” thanks to Donald Trump and his faithful followers. This is just another example of a commonsense approach to solving problems without destroying all of the infrastructure we have spent decades developing.

FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH, I’M BACK AT MY KEYBOARD.

It has been a very long six weeks since my knee replacement. I’m telling you, if you have never had this surgery, it’s brutal. I haven’t had any creative energy; I have just been concentrating on trying to get my leg working again and learning how to walk again. I have been going to physical therapy twice a week, and it has had a super positive result, even though I am still not walking very well. The surgery is all good at six weeks, but you’re not going to be really mobile for another six weeks. I can climb up in my Suburban and get behind the wheel, although I have yet to drive it. It’s a bit tall to start with, then 20″ wheels make it a bit higher. By the way, I love my Suburban. One of my favorite cars in a long line of many different types of vehicles I have owned.

You can expect my production of articles to pick up again since I am slowly becoming more mobile and in a better mood. This is the time of the year for really crappy weather in the Pacific Northwest, that hasn’t helped my mindset.

One big plus in my recovery is that I am sequestered in my man cave with a 55″ tv and I have spent a lot of time watching President Trump drive the left absolutely mad. The Democrats have totally lost their collective minds. (which doesn’t amount to a lot of brain power) It’s so funny that Biden didn’t even know what planet he was on most of the time, and Trump is like twin 50 caliber machine guns on the nose of a P47 destroying everything in its path.

How about J.D. Vance? Ain’t he great? I love how he hammered the Europeans last week. He has a great future with the Republicans. I don’t think there is any doubt that he will occupy the Oval Office sometime in the future. Standing on foreign soil looking the Europeans in the eye, he didn’t exhibit any sign of weakness that I could see. He made me proud to be an American.

TRUMP SLAMMED THE GATES, AND TRIPLE LOCKED THEM AT THE SOUTHERN BORDER

We were made to sit and watch our beautiful country be overrun with illegal aliens for four long years, knowing all the time the Dems were doing it on purpose. We had to watch our cities being given over to people who had no rights to anything. We watched while the Democrats gave these people money for rent, clothing, cars, phones. Literally rolling out the red carpet for millions of illiterate peasants who had no skills, no money, and could offer nothing to make this country better. They are nothing but parasites. Sorry to be so blunt, but those are the cold hard facts.

How do you think that made a struggling black family feel that were working three or four low paying jobs just to have a roof over their heads and a used up old car to try to get to work every day, and the illegals are being treated like honored guests. Well, they understood very well what was happening to them, that’s why they voted for President Trump. President Trump needs to make sure these people are not forgotten again.

The Republicans and President Trump must keep that hard edge, if we are going to maintain the ground that has been taken back from the leftists. We need to reinforce our strength by adding more conservatives to the House and Senate in the mid-terms.

I was amazed that Trump was able to slam the gates and stop the flow of illegals across the border in his first week in office. It was like watching an old western movie when the new sheriff comes to town and cleans out the bad guys and all the townspeople are walking safe again. We are truly living in a historical time. I am so glad the good Lord allowed me to stay here so I could witness it.

DOGE AND THE DUMBASS DEMS

The House and Senate Democrats are losing their minds over DOGE and Elon. Considering the current state of the Democrat party they couldn’t take a more idiotic stance. Even the leaders of the party are telling them to let it go. They are only digging their hole deeper. Waste and fraud have been a talking point for Dems and Republicans as long as I can remember. Now that Trump and Elon are actually doing something about it, The Dems are acting like lunatics.

To understand why the Democrats are reacting this way to a totally common-sense act, you have to understand Democrats. To Democrats, the Federal Government is their God. Being a Democrat is a religion. The bureaucracies they have created are like sacred temples. They have a lot of sacred cows, one of the most important to them is abortion. Another is homosexuality. The latest of course is transgenderism. Race is just a tool to help achieve other goals. They shouted about women’s rights for years, then famously threw women under the bus to promote transgenderism. If you figure that one out let me know.

Everyday Americans are too busy to immerse themselves in this nonsense, they don’t agree with it, and realize it has no real meaning in the grand scheme of things, so the Democrat party keeps slip sliding away.

Well, my friends I am going to close up shop for the day, but I’ll be back soon. Thank you for hanging with me for the past seven years and taking the time to read my rants. I promise I will be producing better and more interesting articles in the future as soon as I can access my office upstairs with my big computer and oversized monitors. In my office I can read the news and comment on it at the same time. I am now working from a laptop with a single 15″ monitor. Maybe I’ll be back in my main office this weekend. (I hope)

SO MANY THOUGHTS AND EMOTIONS HAVE PASSED THROUGH MY MIND TODAY,

I’m not sure how many of you were aware of how narrowly we missed losing it all over the past four years. Most of you know I am 83 years old, it was a terrifying thought that I could see my precious nation destroyed by communist Marxist America hating Democrats during my last years on this earth. We literally missed it by a fraction of an inch when the assassin’s bullet barely missed its mark. That was the Democrat’s last-ditch effort to derail our effort to take back our beloved country. Along with illegal manipulation of the law in an effort to jail Donald Trump, and then finally providing a “half ass” effort to protect Mr. Trump in Pennsylvania, allowing the assassin to make an attempt on his life paints a very dark picture of who we are dealing with. The Democrats are no longer an American political party, they are a full-blown enemy of the state. If you don’t realize this, I invite you to take a harder look at the political events over the past 12 years of Obama and Biden. In the past four years they became so certain their efforts would be successful, they didn’t even try to hide their dirty deeds.

I KNOW THE LIST IS GETTING LONGER BUT ADD THIS MESSAGE TO “WE MUST NOT FORGET”.

Its only two short years to the mid-terms and it is critical for the Republicans to maintain and even expand their majorities to keep this train on track and full steam ahead. Do not let these dark memories fade away, we must remain strong.

Sorry for this short message on such an important event, but I am only 14 days out from a full knee replacement. I cannot yet access my office which is up a long flight of stairs, so I am writing this on my laptop sitting in my recliner. More come soon, I am making pretty good progress at getting back to a normal life.

What a wonderful day, God Bless all of you and your families. It is truly the beginning of a golden age for America.

WOULDN’T IT BE NICE?

Wouldn’t it be nice if each year was somehow packaged so that none of the bad stuff was carried over into the new year, and we indeed got a fresh start so we could try not to repeat last year’s mistakes. Sorry, unfortunately it isn’t that way, and we have to carry last year’s baggage into the new year. My wife often remarks about people moving to a new location to get a fresh start, she says “unfortunately wherever they go, they take themselves along”. So, that said the new year despite how we view it, is likely to be more of the same.

There is a bright side though, ringing in the new year causes us to reflect on our own shortcomings and gives us the incentive to improve. I don’t know about you, but some of my New Year’s resolutions made a profound impact on my life. New Year’s eve 1969-70, I went to a house party and got very, very drunk. To the point I was carried home in my own car as if it was an ambulance. I smoked so many cigarettes that night, along with everyone else, the next morning my throat was literally raw, I couldn’t walk from two sprained ankles from dancing while drunk. That night ended my smoking and drinking forever, 55 years ago today.

WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED OVER THE LAST YEAR, AND THE THREE YEARS BEFORE IT?

The answer to that question is things we didn’t think were possible.

I never would have thought it have been possible to rig a national election.
I never thought it would have been possible to elect a president with apparent dementia.
I never would have thought it would have been possible to cover up that fact for four years.
I never would have thought that a man-made virus would be intentionally released on the world for monetary and political gain.
I never thought the American people would have been so eager to give up their Constitutional rights without a fight.
I didn’t think I would ever witness a political party deliberately abandon border enforcement and allow millions of unvetted aliens into our midst.
I didn’t think I would ever witness a complete collapse of the United States military and turn over our weapons to our enemy. A complete and utter surrender.
I didn’t think I would ever see the DOJ, the FBI and the CIA turn on American citizens.
I still can’t believe the government actually created an agency to curb free speech, and openly censor American citizens.
I never thought I would witness blatant political persecution by state and local court systems working on behalf of the federal government to take out political opponents.
I still can’t believe the sitting vice presidents son was allowed to travel the world on a government aircraft, fleecing foreign governments in a “pay for play” scheme, hanging with hookers, doing illegal drugs, transferring a portion of that money to his father and uncle, walked away unscathed, and his father pardoned him, ultimately pardoning himself. It is a huge illegal operation that will go unpunished.
Last but certainly not least, in a last ditch effort to save the party, and stay in power, they invested one billion, twenty million dollars in a flawed candidate that was selected in a rigged manner by the DNC, not the rank-and-file members of the party. I am still stunned that anyone thought the moronic Kamala Harris was presidential material. But then again, she would have been replacing a certified brain-dead old guy.
So, I think the big take away from this, is we learned the Democrats will stop at nothing to gain, and hold onto power, be it outright cheating, or lying, or a combination of both plus a bunch of other stuff.

2025 AND RENEWED HOPE FOR A BETTER AMERICA.

It’s time to purge the scum from the DOJ and the FBI and stop the political persecution of everyday citizens protecting their children from perverted maniac school systems. It’s time to rebuild our police departments and make our streets safe again. It’s time to bring back common sense government. Stop the B.S. regulations on anything that moves. Stop the “green agenda” before it bankrupts our nation.

I’m excited about the new possibilities coming our way. The Democrats almost destroyed our economy, Trump and team have got to start moving fast to get it back on track. Being involved in new construction, I can tell you it is moving at a snails pace right now, and a lot of industries are hurting. I’m confident Mr. Trump and team will be able to resuscitate the business world and get things moving again. Good things are on the horizon.

YOU HAVE TO BE SMART ENOUGH TO SEE THROUGH THE NEVER-ENDING LIES

I wanna be clear from the start, I’m not trying to pass myself off as a super smart guy, but I think I’m smart enough to see through this barrage of lies that just goes on and on. I guess you could say I’m a bit of a conspiracy theorist, but my suspicions of conspiracies just seem to keep coming true. Let’s start with my first conspiracy theory way back in 2019.

In order to decipher the news you have to listen closely for key words they sprinkle in with the lies that are actual clues to the truth. In the beginning of the Covid disaster they told you a story was that the Covid virus came from a “wet market” in Wuhan, China. Then you also heard reference to a virology laboratory also located in Wuhan, almost thrown in as a point of reference. BINGO!!

It took me about 1.67 seconds to figure this one out. Immediately my brain discounted the “wet market” story, and realized the virus really came from the virology lab. I wasn’t sure if it was accidental or purposefully. Turns out, it was done on purpose. All of this has now been proven to be true.

The next part of this remains a conspiracy theory, but it is getting closer to be being proven true, because certain members of Congress will not stop digging, and they will eventually uncover the truth. I hope I am still alive to see that glorious day. Josh Hawley, Rand Paul, others continue to lead the way.

First part my theory is proven truth; immediately after the outbreak of Covid in China, the major Chinese Holiday occurred, and thousands of Chinese citizens traveled across the globe, taking the virus with them, and infecting millions of unsuspecting citizens of other nations. This was the beginning of the pandemic that killed millions of people, and devastated world economies. You probably remember Donald Trump being called raciest for not allowing flights from China into the USA.

The second part of this theory is going to be very difficult to unravel. But, as the tag line at the bottom of my blog states; “Truth Conquers”. It will eventually be known. My theory is that two powers came together for different reasons. The powers were the Democrat Party (hard core leftists) and the Chinese Communist Party. Not much difference here as you saw during the past four years. Both parties wanted Trump to lose the election. The Democrats wanted desperately to be back in power, Trump was tearing apart their agendas. The Chinese wanted Trump out of power, because he was hurting them financially and setting back their plans for world domination.

A global pandemic was the perfect plan. The Democrats were poised and ready to take advantage of the chaos that followed. They knew what was coming. If you look at the timeline, just as soon as the lockdowns began, the Democrat lawyers fanned out across the US establishing vote by mail and wiping away the deadlines for final vote counts, claiming people would be struggling to get to the poles during the so-called pandemic. In a few short months they deconstructed the decades old voting rules.

Now, lets take a look at the DNC. Kamala Harris flamed out within a couple of weeks, absolutely unable to get traction even from her own state. Bernie Sanders was gaining with a strong base of young voters. Biden couldn’t put a sentence or a thought together. He was clearly mentally compromised at that point. Then the Democrat party stepped in and took over, because their plan was not going the way it was supposed to. The guy who ramrodded Biden through the primary in the southeast was the black congressman James Clyburn, who has also played an important role in Bidens activities in recent months; read Hunter’s pardon.

Thanks to overriding what was inevitably going to happen, the DNC chose Biden as its front runner, then promptly hid him away so his mental decline could not be on display. His public appearances were strictly monitored and scripted, using Covid as a smokescreen. Trump was still on the campaign trail holding rallies right up to the end drawing huge crowds. Legacy media took over Biden’s campaign. When they did allow Biden to be seen and heard, he was constantly stumbling through his short speeches saying really dumb shit. Biden won by 74 electoral votes, and won the popular vote by close to 81 million votes despite being rarely seen or heard. This was accomplished through all of the changes to the voting system by the Democrat lawyers.

This is what you have to understand. And this is why I absolutely stand by my conspiracy theory. They had to put Biden in the White House at all costs to accomplish their goals of Obama continuing his agenda for a third term. His goal was always to transform America into something unrecognizable. Everyone in this camp knew Biden was not able to fulfil the duties of the President, but they needed him as a front man, and needed him to publicly sign bills into law, while they did their nefarious deeds behind the scenes. Did you ever notice how many of Obama’s cabinet were in Biden’s cabinet? For four long years these meatheads worked tirelessly to change the face and soul of America. Joe Biden just did as he was told, while wandering around on an endless tour of the ice cream parlors, and shaking hands with dead people. So where was Jill you ask? Basking in the false glory of being the first lady of a false president. The perfect example of greed over pride.

Then Karma took over and saved the day. The American people awakened, and saw what was really happening, and kicked the bums out. Trump flipped six states, winning the electoral votes by a whopping 86 votes while capturing 77,284,118 popular votes. That is the second highest total vote in history which the highest is held by none other than Joe Biden. Trump now holds the record for the most cumulative popular votes won by any presidential candidate in US history, surpassing Obama who ran for president three times. (remember, Obama said Trump would never be president) When you simply look at the numbers and analyze them, you can easily see, the 2020 vote was manipulated.

People, the Joe Biden presidency was a very clever charade. America was the victim of a giant fraud, perpetrated and managed by the deep state. When the DOJ made its report and said he couldn’t be held responsible for the secret documents in this possession, due to his advanced senility, the interviewers were probably stunned by his mental condition. I have seen senility up close and personal, it’s not easy to experience. BTW, that interview will never see daylight, guaranteed.

We are standing on the threshold of a new administration, with renewed hope that we can repair most if not all of the damage done by the evildoers. God bless Donald Trump and the United States of America. I will forever be grateful I was alive to see this glorious day in American history. But make no mistake, this beast that we have wounded is still a formidable power and will fight valiantly although seriously wounded. It’s tentacles have penetrated every government. department.

I hope all of you enjoyed a beautiful Christmas, and hope the New Year holds great things for you and your families. I start out my New Year with getting a new right knee, that is long overdue.

THERE’S A STAHL IN THE LEFT LANE

Lesley Stahl is in that legacy media group of women that I call the professional whiners. When they deliver their stories, they have that pouty look, and that whiney voice. The look on their faces looks like they just witnessed something horrific, like say a late term abortion. They are so fake, they make me sick to my stomach watching them perform. This is how someone acts when they are telling you a bald faced lie.

A few days ago, Lesley Stahl did an interview with another total bimbo, Peggy Noonan. Lesley proceeds to make the claim that she is terrified about the future of legacy media. She puts on the sad pouty face that your grandmother would have if she was just fleeced out of her lifelong home. She made the statement that “she’s very dark about that”. I immediately have flashbacks of all of the leftist crap I have heard gush from her lips over the years, and I can’t seem to find even a single microscopic morsel of pity for this wack job.

She mentions how sad it is that the public no longer trusts the legacy media. Damn, I wonder how that happened? Let’s see, could it be how they downplayed all of the tom foolery that happened in the 2020 election? Could it be how they couldn’t seem to find even a little tiny bit of positive news pertaining to Trump and the Republicans for four long years? Could it be they didn’t make any effort at all to hide their leftist bias. Oh yeah, and remember how they were all totally on board with all of the Covid lockdown shenanigans? You know, the ones that all ended up being proven false like the stupid 6-foot rule and wearing three masks. Remember how they glorified the lying little sucker, Antony Fauci? My gawd, I despise these morons.

But hold on, I remember other shit these idiots did. I remember one newscast in particular when the female anchor was gushing over Michael Avenatti. I’m sure it was on CNN. I literally thought she was going to have an orgasm on live TV. That definitely didn’t age well. Watch the video below and see if it bolsters your trust in legacy media.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9dTReu3bvw

Do you remember how they trashed Nick Sandmann? They reported the kids on a field trip to the Lincoln Memorial wearing MAGA hats, were harassing a native American elder. It was all lies created by the media. That story was created to disparage Trump supporters, and white people in general. Carma stepped in, and CNN ended up shelling out $275 million for that blatant pack of lies.

How about the Duke La Crosse players that were accused of raping a black female stripper. The media had these guys tried and convicted. I remember this well, how one sided the reporting was. The media wanted these young guys in the slammer forever. Then the truth started to rise to the top. See the story below.

https://abc13.com/post/crystal-mangum-today-woman-admits-during-podcast-interview-falsely-accusing-duke-lacrosse-players-rape-2006/15652531/

Who could forget this gem;

https://www.foxnews.com/media/cnn-panned-for-on-air-graphic-reading-fiery-but-mostly-peaceful-protest-in-front-of-kenosha-fire

This has been a never-ending pattern by the legacy media of looking straight into the camera and telling a bald-faced lie/lies. But before I go, I have to cite one more example of how the legacy media put all of its weight behind trying to get a conviction of an innocent man. That man is all but forgotten today, his name is Kyle Rittenhouse. He was rightfully acquitted of all charges when all of the evidence was presented in a proper court of law. The legacy media and leftist politicians would have been delighted if he had been strung up in a public hanging. His treatment during his incarceration before his trial was nothing more than cruel and unusual punishment. Read the details, you will be horrified.

The media was totally instrumental in swaying the opinion in the George Floyd trial. They tried desperately to tilt the scales of justice in the cases of Michael Brown, Freddie Gray, and Trayvon Martin.

I really can’t believe Lesley Stahl has been indoctrinated to the point she is no longer able to discern lies from truth. But it appears from her statements that is true. Also, if her fears that the mainstream media is collapsing comes to pass, it will be a glorious day for America. Freedom of speech and truth telling will have been reborn.

It has been a wonderful year dear patriots. America has been wrenched from the hands of evil people who wanted to destroy her. Rejoice in the celebration of freedom, and most of all the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. God bless you all.

THE DEPT. OF HOMELAND SECURITY IS EQUIVALENT TO A BOTTLE OF TABASCO SAUCE IN A DONUT SHOP.

As a former drone pilot and enthusiast, I know a little bit about this subject. I bought my first drone years ago, a small basic machine for beginners. A few years later, I did some trading and ended up with a DJI Inspire which is a very large drone, very popular with Hollywood for filming action shots. Very fast, great camera, and dual controls so you can fly, and your co-pilot can man the camera. Very powerful, able to lift 3.5 lbs. It has a range of just over 1.5 miles away from the controller. I have flown many times by camera only, the drone was out of sight. That will make you a little nervous with a $4,000.00 aircraft.

To fly a drone of that size, you have to be an FAA licensed pilot. There are two classes of pilots. I had a sports pilot license. I was not allowed to fly over people or traffic, and I could not market my photography taken during flights. If you are using your drone for commercial purposes, you have to have the same license as a manned aircraft. Then you can fly at night, above populated areas and trafficways. You can also market your photography, which is totally amazing.

I chose to sell my drone because of the new laws and regulations that were coming out requiring me to affix a transponder to my drone so it could be tracked and identified by the FAA officials. The rules were going to continue to become stricter in the future on drones of that size. There has even been discussion in Congress to outlaw DJI drones from being sold in the United States. DJI is the world’s leading drone manufacturer, and they are made in China. The concern is that the very sophisticated software the drone uses can be used by the Chinese for spying. When you register the software to control the drone, it is connected to your email address. This is concerning.

So, the reason I told you all of this, is because all of these laws and regulations are only good, as long as law abiding citizens are willing to comply. If you are not a law-abiding citizen, then you can operate whatever you want, whenever you want until you get nabbed. Exactly like gun laws and driver’s licenses. The average person complies with these nonsensical rules because they don’t have the money or time to fight with the Feds.

The Feds cannot identify the drones flying around New Jersey, because they are illegal, flying without transponders. That tells me immediately that they are rogue pilots intentionally breaking the law so they can’t be identified. That is also an indicator they may be up to no good. This flys in the face of the story the FBI and Homeland Security are telling you. John Kirby is saying today they don’t believe they have any malicious intent. He can’t know that, because he has no idea who is operating them. Also, they haven’t been able to identify the operating system used to control them. You can’t jam a signal if you don’t know what it is.

These are the same people that allowed a Chinese spy balloon to fly across the Pacific, entering our airspace in Alaska, and allowed it to continue it’s flight unimpeded almost all the way across the lower 48 before taking it out with a missile. I think they only reason they destroyed it, was due to the mounting public pressure. Otherwise Slo-Joe would have just let the damn thing drift off over the Atlantic. I’m sure he didn’t want to upset those folks that greased his palm for years.

These drones have been operating in the New Jersey area since mid-November. It is now mid-December and they still have no clue as to what the hell is going on. This doesn’t give me a “warm and fuzzy” feeling. Is the FBI, Homeland Security, and the Military really this inept. I told you earlier my drone would lift 3.5 lbs. These drones are much larger than the one I owned; they could probably lift upwards of 10 to 15 pounds or more. That is one hell of a lot of sophisticated explosives. I would be very nervous if they were flying around my neighborhood.

Here is another point for you to consider; My drone was small compared to these, which are over 6′ in diameter. My drone fully outfitted with accessories was over $4,000.00. A drone of this size can cost upwards of between $20-50,000.00. So, who can afford to fly these many drones with this kind of a price tag? I am watching this with great interest to see how the geniuses in our so called “Homeland Security” and the FBI deal with it.

Well folks, you can rest easy toight knowing that the Federal Government is watching the borders and the skies, keeping you safe from intruders.

THE DAY THAT LIVES IN INFAMY, BUT LARGELY IGNORED BY TODAY’S AMERICANS.

According to Google, the Japanese attack force that decimated Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941, consisted of six aircraft carriers, two battleships, two heavy cruisers, one light cruiser, nine destroyers, eight tankers, 23 fleet submarines, and five midget submarines. The aircraft carriers were carrying 353 aircraft. Britannica claims Japan had 67 ships within 200 miles of Oahu.

In the world we live in today, with satellites surveilling virtually every square inch of the earth in real time, it’s hard to believe that a naval armada of such magnitude could go undetected and get close enough to attack a strategic US asset such as Pearl Harbor. Another fact hard to ignore was the fact that Japan had been on the march in the Pacific capturing island after island for ten years prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor. A small contingency of Americans, the famous “Flying Tigers” had been assisting the Chinese in pushing out the Japanese aggressors. I’m sure this activity was being closely watched by United States intelligence.

As in all major events such as this one, all sorts of theories abound. The political climate in the United States prior to our entry into the second world war was one of isolationism. Americans didn’t want any part of foreign wars. The theory held by some, is that Roosevelt knew it would be difficult is not impossible to enter the developing worldwide fray politically, so the decision was made to ignore Japan’s eminent attack on Pearl Harbor, knowing an attack on the American Navy would spark the anger of the American populace and erase any resistance to entering the war.

Whether or not that is true, I have provided a very condensed history of what followed Pearl Harbor. The Japanese did in fact awake a “Sleeping Giant.”

The entire story of how America went from a peaceful Agricultural/Industrial nation to full on war machine is nothing less than fascinating, and somewhat unbelievable. But that story embodies the true spirit of America. We saw that spirit rise again a few weeks ago on election day. America is back.

BIDEN SEALS HIS LEGACY AS THE BIGGEST BONEHEAD PRESIDENT IN HISTORY.

I have written thousands of words about how corrupt the Bidens are. I’m hardly alone, every political commentator that I read and/or follow is saying the same things. One of the brightest and best at this game is Miranda Devine, a New York Post columnist. I’m going to post two recent videos by her that offer probably the most clear-eyed view of this event.

I told you last week that this pardon was for Joe himself as much as it was for Hunter, so he wouldn’t get caught up in the scandal.

I hope these videos help you more clearly see how corrupt this family is. One of the most important things you heard Miranda ask is how much blame the Bidens have for the Ukrainian war.

I’m so glad this is over now, even though these scummy suckers will never be held accountable for their dastardly deeds.

SORT OF A STRANGE THANKSGIVING, BUT A GOOD ONE NONETHELESS.

My wife and I have four offspring between us. I use the word “offspring” because all of them are old and couldn’t be remotely referred to as children. My oldest daughter turned 68 years old this year. Don’t bother trying to do the math. Anyhow, they are scattered from heck to yonder, and no way are they all going to show up for Thanksgiving. The only time all of them will show up at our house is for the reading of the will. Boy they will be surprised; I already spent their inheritance and then some. Don’t look at me expecting to see a sad face of regret, I had one hell of a lot of fun.

Anyhow, they all checked in by phone, messaging, and Face Book. I’m considering myself lucky ’cause all of ’em are apparently doing well, not one of ’em asked for money. I’m thankful for that, because I just saw a great deal on some 9 mm. ammo. Thinking I’m a little short of .45 cal. as well. The Democrats have been unusually quiet, I don’t trust those suckers. I’d feel better with a little more fire power.

How could Thanksgiving be any better with Trump back in the Whitehouse? Is that great or what? He saved us from the crazy Commie Harris and Tampon Tim. Now, stop and really think about that for a few minutes. Kamala and Tim are a couple of knucklehead clowns themselves, can you imagine what Kamala’s cabinet would be like? It would likely look like the latest Jaguar commercial. Could she even find enough freaks to fill the slots? I break out in a cold sweat just thinking about it.

Did you think even for a nano second that “Crooked Joe” wouldn’t pardon his crackhead son? When you really think about it, Joe couldn’t afford to have Hunter on trial, because he was bound to get entangled in the details. He had no choice, he had to pardon Hunter for his own protection. I can’t believe we had a crime family in the Whitehouse.

I don’t think Joe Biden actually knows what the word “truth” means. One of the biggest collection of lies is in the following short video. Click on the link below.

When you reflect on the past four years, you have been lied to like the wife of a drunken gambler. I challenge you to tell me one thing that came out of the Biden Whitehouse that was true. It was literally a full time “smoke and mirrors” show.

I have never been more proud of my fellow Americans who saw through the lies and deception and made the right decision at the ballot box. My faith in America has been restored and I am extremely thankful for that. God bless you all, you stayed vigilant, you acted courageously, and I am proud to be counted amongst you.
