I Don’t Blame Him, I Blame You…

This is for those who voted for him and for what is going on in our country. This man was hiding in his basement the whole campaign cycle and when he came out, he couldn’t put together a baseball roster with those who attended his rallies.

You voted for this man because you hated President Trump so much, but when asked why, you couldn’t come up with a rational or intelligent reason.

You voted for this man because having a secured border and keeping illegal aliens from your neighborhood was harsh, but now those illegal aliens will be able to buy the home you can’t afford as this man gives them a $450,000 gift for breaking our laws.

You voted for this man because, like Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, the promise of free stuff and welfare checks for all, sounded too good.

You voted for this man because you thought the economy was going to get better, although it was already the best in decades. Now you will be lucky to find a can of SPAM at your local grocery store.

You voted for this man because you thought under President Trump your rights were under attack. Now, you are being mandated to inject yourself with untested vaccines or lose your livelihood in the process.

You voted for this man because you believed the hypocrites who cried climate change while traveling the world in their expensive private jets. Now we are, once again, dependent on foreign oil and rogue nations for our energy needs.

You voted for this man because you believed President Trump was a racist, despite the fact the man you voted for has been a real racist all his life, while “businessman” Trump was handing out checks to Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson.

You voted for this man, this man who has shutdown our energy industry, putting thousands of Americans out of work.

You voted for this man who’s a certified liar and a corrupt politician. Truly owned by China and Russia.

You voted for this man because President Trump was too vulgar, and his tweets were mean and crude. Sure, President Trump was harsh and direct to the point, better than the man you voted for who lies to your face and you’re ignorant enough to believe him.

You can thank the man you voted for next time you pull at the gas station and gas is more expensive. The man you voted for is setting to close another pipeline, the Line 5 pipeline. Expect prices to go even higher. Get your bicycle ready!

You can thank the man you voted for the next time you don’t get a pay raise and inflation continues to outpace your paycheck.

You can thank the man you voted for as he admits life for Americans is getting harder under his failed administration.

You can thank the man you voted for when your children come home from school with anxiety problems due to being labeled a racist or a victim because of the color of their skin.

You can thank the man you voted for; he appointed incompetent fools to his administration who claim the supply chain crisis is a “good thing”. Only a moron would think this to be true.

You can thank the man you voted for when your tax bill is even higher than you thought. If you believe the man you voted for is going after his rich buddies, you deserve to pay an “Ignorance Tax.”

You can thank the man you voted for; he has put this country on the verge of collapse, and you will collapse with it.

So, stop blaming conservatives, white people, President Trump, and every other excuse you can come up with for your miserable life. After all, you voted for it.

Thank you for your vote!

Policy Still a Winning Formula

The victory of Republican gubernatorial candidate Glenn Youngkin in Virginia demonstrates most Americans still believe in individual rights, the rule of law, and the freedoms afforded by the Constitution.

Democrat candidate Terry McAuliffe ran on the typical fearmongering, race-based, and victimhood nonsense the Democrats continue to hang on to, and the people of Virginia rejected it.

Sure, McAuliffe got 48% of the vote, but that is the percentage of voters who were going to vote Democrat no matter what.

Youngkin ran an issues-oriented campaign, concentrating on education, the economy, and parental rights.

Critical Race Theory was at the forefront of the campaign as parents were concerned about the emphasis the public school system has put on such a divisive and racist propaganda subject.

While the Democrats continued to feed their base with cheap red meat like transgederism in schools, defunding the police, illegal aliens, and welfare for all, the Republicans were on point.

The economy, public, safety, education, and COVID-19, those were the winning issues and it showed at the ballot box in Virginia.

Democrats tried to make it about Donald Trump. The mainstream media tried to make Youngkin look like some type of racist and a “Trump Trooper,” with the Lincoln Project going as far as to stage a phony photo-op to portray Youngkin as some type of right-wing crazy. It didn’t work.

Virginians rejected that nonsense and saw it for what it was, cheap politics. The American people have seen the country go from a strong one to a weak one in a matter of months and they are opening their eyes to what the Democratic Party has to offer.

Under the Democrats, American citizens have become third class citizens while illegal aliens have been elevated to a position of strength. While the central government order Americans to vaccinate or else, illegal aliens are not even evaluated.

Gold Star families only get $100,000 for the death of a family member while fighting for his or her country, the Democrats want to give $450,000 to illegal aliens who dare to break our laws and enter our country illegally. If that’s not enough reason to reject Democratic Party policies, I do not know what else I could tell you to convince you.

Bottomline? Policies still matter, and the Republican Party could learn a thing or two from Glenn Youngkin’s wining campaign strategy.

A Repeat of the 1970’s Gasoline Shortages?

In the 1970’s we went through a couple of gas shortages in America. You would think, in 2021, our government would understand the need to become energy independent, especially when we have the resources to do so.

So, what happened in the 1970’s? Two things people are familiar with that came out of the 70’s crisis were Daylight Savings and the 55 mile per hour speed limit.

In a nutshell, in October 1973, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) started an embargo on oil exports to the United States because Arab countries were at war with Israel. The embargo was a result of the United States resupplying Israel’s military during the conflict.

The United States was dependent on foreign oil and gas prices almost doubled overnight . The system of “Odd and Even” rationing was born, and it lasted until 1974. More recently, we have seen this system reinstituted in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria destroyed the island in 2017.

In 1979 on the onset of the Iranian Revolution, Iranian oil production was halted. Oil shortages and gas price hikes showed up, once again, in the United States.

Oil markets went on a panic and the price of crude oil doubled. President Carter was quoted as saying of the crisis to be, “the moral equivalent to war.”  After the American embassy was seized, Carter declared and oil embargo on Iranian oil imports.

In 1990, after the invasion of Kuwait by “our former Man in Havana”, Saddam Hussein, another jump on crude oil prices and gasoline shortages were seen across the globe.

Fortunately for the United States, this was not a long lived shortage. Once the conflict was dealt with, prices decreased.

After these global incidents, most shortages in the United States have occurred due to unforeseen natural disasters and government ineptitude.

Before 2017, the United States was not an energy independent country. Mostly because of government over regulation of the oil and gas industries and Environmental Protection Agency mismanagement.

Once President Donald Trump was elected to office, the United States saw a renaissance of the oil and gas industries. Construction of the Keystone XL pipeline resumed and we were a leading producer of liquified natural gas in the world.

On June 2021, TC Energy announced the cancelation of the Keystone XL pipeline due to Biden’s denial of construction permits. This was the first stage of failure of American energy independence. Biden begged OPEC to produce more oil, but OPEC told him to pound sand.

After the “election” of Joe Biden, gasoline at the pump has gone up as much as $4.00 a gallon from an average of $1.85 before the 2020 “election.” In places like California, gasoline prices are as high as $5.00 a gallon and inching closer to $8.00 a gallon.

The difference between the shortages in the 1970’s, and today’s, is the fact those were caused by geopolitical and military actions.

In 2021, the energy crisis was perpetrated upon the United States by our own government and the reversal of almost every Executive Order issued by President Trump in support of energy independence.

This is a self-inflicted wound and one that it will be hard to heal. The Biden administration killed the energy sector in the United States, and you will pay the price for it.

This only hurts the working class, the poor, those living on a fix income and on government welfare.

People like Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, and the rest of the Elite class, will continue to ride their SUV’s, even if gas prices reach $10.00 a gallon.

Do I believe we can end up in the same position as in the 1970’s? Absolutely!

Get those gas cans ready!

Where’s Pete?

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg

Has you seen this cabinet member?

Why is it our presidents keep appointing unqualified people to important cabinet positions?

During the Trump administration, President Trump appointed Mitch McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao as Secretary of Transportation and she was a disaster.

Enter the Biden administration and the appointment of failed presidential candidate, Pete Buttigieg, as Secretary of Transportation.

Pete Buttigieg knows nothing about transportation or interstate commerce. Biden appointed him to the position so he could say he had a gay person serving in his administration.

Personally, I do not have a problem with his sexual orientation, but why not appoint a gay person who knows what he or she is doing.

While the lad has been on “maternity” leave, store shelves have continued to remain empty, ports in California have been at a standstill, truckers are not allowed to operate in California, and prices on everything from bubble gum to canned meat continue to go up.

Upon his return, he was nowhere to be found. He finally decided to grant an interview to the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party, CNN.

During his interview, he made several comments that did not addressed the issue or were flat out ridiculous.

 He told CNN, “Certainly, a lot of challenges that we have been experiencing this year will continue into next year.”  That is comforting knowing our government does not have a plan.

“But there are both short-term and long-term steps that we can take to do something about it.”  Of course, he could not say which steps they were ready to take.

To be funny, he suggested the supply chain issues causing prices to go up was, “beneficial.”  To whom? Ah yes, to the ruling elite who does not shop where you little people shop, and do not have to worry about shortages.

He went on to say the sight of empty shelves was a sign Joe Biden had “successfully guided our economy out of the teeth of a terrifying recession.”  Is this guy crazy?

We were not in a recession until the Biden administration took office. We are in a recession due to the failed economic policies of the Biden administration, period.

“Part of what’s happening isn’t the supply side, it is the demand side, demand is off the charts.” “Retail sales are through the roof. If you think about those images of ships, for example, waiting at anchor on the West Coast, every one of those ships is full of record amounts of goods that Americans are buying because demand is up, because income is up.”

Sure, but they cannot deliver because the Undertaker of California, Gavin Newsome and the Gargoyle of Los Angeles, Eric Garcetti, have put draconian regulations in place slowing down the process. So much for “privately owned” enterprises.

Retail sales are up because people are spending money they don’t have. When the hear the government talking about giving free stuff away for nothing in return; what is the point of being fiscally responsible?

As to higher incomes, I do not know how he can make that claim when workers are getting fired form their jobs over COVID-19 vaccinations. Perhaps he meant the politicians in Washington who go to D.C. broke and after a couple of terms they become multi-millionaires.

As he acknowledges supply chains cannot keep up, he used the opportunity to promote Biden’s multi-trillion dollar “infrastructure and reconciliation” bills. Because they think that throwing money at it is going to fix the problem.

Lastly, “Our supply chains…that’s a complicated system and mostly in private hands and rightly so. Our role is to be an honest broker, bring together all of the players, secure commitments and get solutions that will make it easier.”

An honest broker, sure Pete. That is why you have not produced a viable solution or have used the power of your department to get things moving.

Like Elaine Chao, Pete Buttigieg does not have the tools nor the know how to run anything of this magnitude.

I wonder if we are better off with him staying away. He is a small fish in the pond of Joe Biden’s incompetency.

Parents vs School Boards

Parents Are Not a Threat Mr. Agent Man

This is!!!!! Antifa and Black Lives Matters activists. Photo courtesy of en-volv.com

After the death of George Floyd, cities across the country went up in flames by the hands of BLM and Antifa activists.

Businesses were burnt to the ground, police officers were routinely assaulted, federal, and private property were defaced, and citizens lived in constant fear.

This went on for months while Democrats were claiming these were “peaceful protests,” and the Federal Bureau of Investigations concluded they did not have evidence showing Antifa was a domestic terrorist group.

Of course, for a person like me who has been trained in counter terrorism and worked for 15 years preventing terrorists from conducting another 9/11 style attack, this laughable.

Now the Department of Justice wants to designate concerned parents as “domestic terrorists.”  Just because these parents do not want their children to be forced fed Critical Race Theory garbage which is designed to divide our country.

I wrote about this a few days ago, but since then new details have come out about AG Garland and his relationship with promoters of Critical Race Theory.

It is interesting, AG Garland’s son-in-law, Alexander Tanner, is president of Panorama Education, a company who makes millions from the government education system by promoting and selling Critical Race Theory surveys and Critical Race Theory curriculums to government schools across the country. Can you say conflict of interest? YES, BECAUSE IT IS!!!

No wonder AG Garland wants to use the power of the federal government to protect his son-in-law’s bottom line. We saw the same thing during the Obama years with the Internal Revenue Service going after conservative groups like the Tea Party Patriots.

Using the FBI to go after parents who are only exercising their first amendment rights, and their rights as parents, is wrong and a waste of investigative resources. Furthermore, that’s Banana Republic law enforcement.

But how real is this threat by the Department of Justice? According to former SEAL, FBI agent, and fellow former Federal Air Marshal, Jonathan Gilliam, sources at the FBI have told him they have not seen any written directives. He shared this information during an interview with Breitbart News and went on to say he believed this was a bluff.

Personally, I do not believe it’s a bluff, but at the same time I would like to think the FBI would stay away from something that has nothing to do with real terrorism. If they want to deal with real terrorists, I could think about our porous borders and groups like BLM and Antifa.

BLM and Antifa may not be as active as they were during the Trump presidency, but they are still there, and they remain a threat to this country. There is nothing peaceful about burning buildings or setting police stations on fire.

Lastly, the hypocrisy of the left never ceases to amaze me. Just this week, “climate change” protesters clashed with law enforcement at the Department of the Interior in Washington, D.C.

The Department of Interior released a statement, not condemning the violence but saying the Department “believes strongly in respecting and upholding the right to free speech and peaceful protest.”

Say what? There was nothing peaceful about it. These protesters were trying to break into the building while fighting and disobeying law enforcement. By liberal standards, this was an act of insurrection.

But wait a minute, these were Joe Biden voters, so it is all right to commit acts of insurrection under the cover of “free speech.”

Just as the events of January 6th were quite different from an act of insurrection, the protests at the Department of the Interior were nothing more than a bunch of greenies complaining about lack of action from the administration. Nevertheless, they were not peaceful, and they should have been managed accordingly.

This is an example on how if you think like a liberal you can get caught up in a labyrinth of worthless slogans, labels, and accusations. Violence should be never justified, regardless of party affiliation.

The government, be federal or state, do not have the right to tell parents how to raise their children or what’s appropriate education. We are entitled to question, respectfully, our school board officials, after all, we all pay taxes to fund these schools, and we have the right to know how that money is used.

Instead of chasing concerned parents, I would like to suggest the FBI concentrate their efforts on real crimes and real terrorism. This is something I expect from Banana Republic security apparatuses, not the United States of America.
