Stupid Climate Change People

During this recent cold snap that has much of the nation grabbing for an extra blanket, Canada has one upped the USA in stupidity. As most of you probably know, when it gets cold here, it is often times even colder in parts of Canada.

Due to stupid choices made by tyrannical governments, the folks of Canada are going to experience some dangerous conditions over the next few days. Coal fired plants have been shut down, gas powered are not keeping up with demand, and so-called renewable are rendered almost useless by the extreme cold temperatures.

At It Again

I was initially going to post this on fakebook, but the post got a little long winded for that platform. So I decided to do something that I have neglected for a while. Post it here on my blog. Surprisingly, it is still in operation despite my recent lack of blogging. Hopefully, somebody will actually read it. I'm sure the fact-checkers and the FbI will.

Just recently (January 2024), the Supreme Court might have put the final nail in the coffin of a proposed copper and gold mine in southwestern Alaska. For the past 2+ decades, Northern Dynasty Mines has attempted to begin mineral extraction operations but has been met with opposition at nearly every step.

This was a unique situation in that the high Court heard arguments for and against an EPA ruling before the suit made its way through the court system. The Supreme Court did not rule for or against the EPA ruling. The suit will now make its way through the courts in the normal manner.

Obviously, environmental groups and native groups were happy with the ruling, feeling the mine posses a threat to a valued watershed.

The Tide

Most of you already know that I am somewhat suspicious of law enforcement. Support the Blue is a movement on the right that maybe we should hold at arms length. In my opinion, there have been too many incidents involving law enforcement and folks on the right. I have provided numerous examples in previous posts. Here and Here and Here

The day prior and the day of his "stop the steal" speech President Trump stated that those in attendance needed to remain peaceful and the Capitol Police were on our side. As the events of Jan 6th become a little more distant, that narrative has begun to change. It has become obvious from the videos that has been released, the Capitol Hill Police, along with the FBI, were front and center in instigating the events that occurred that afternoon.

Guilt or Innocence

Dear Readers: As you read through this little post please understand that this should not be misconstrued as showing support for any actions that Brett Farve may have allegedly committed. If the allegations leveled against him for fraud have any merit, then he needs to have his day in court, and if convicted, he should pay the price.

It is more or less a very brief essay on the complete intolerance and hypocrisy of the left.

Read the sourced article here.

A few days back Farve was on a podcast telling people they should avoid the mainstream media. “If you’re watching the news, depending on who you’re watching, 99.9% of the news is the left. So there’s a huge agenda,” Favre said on the podcast. “They control the narrative.” Why he felt he had to say this on Donald Trump, Jr’s podcast, which most likely has a conservative audience, is just a tad baffling to me. As conservatives, we already know this, Farve was preaching to the choir. But as in the case with nearly all conservative podcasts, there is always a small sliver of the audience that are progressives.

Switching Places

The other day Senator Ted Cruz (TX- Awesome) absolutely demolished Rep AOC (NY-knucklehead), the not so bright bulb from NY. She made the mistake of stating on Twitter that at some point, the democrat party and the Republican party switched places when it came to racism. As the linked Twichy article points out this has been so thoroughly debunked, that serious people don't even attempt to bring it up any more. Every once in a while though, someone drags this out in an attempt to discredit. Just like all the other times, someone has to do some educating. This time it was Sen Cruz.

Pure Evil

The Washington state House just passed a bill that would allow children to have gender reassignment surgery without parental consent. Furthermore, parents would NOT be notified.

Currently, if a runaway minor goes to a youth shelter, the organization must inform the parents or legal guardians within 24-72 hours. However, state law provides "compelling reasons" for them not to do so, including the belief that notifying the parents or legal guardians would subject the child to abuse or neglect.

Read the full story here 

Of course, this passed along party lines. Further proof that progressives are not good people. And further supports my contention the left wants, with every fiber of their being, to take away children from parents, especially if those parents won't toe the party (progressive) line.

Possible Strike

I would imagine that the Washington Examiner editorial team has received a few responses from their readers who read If railworkers strike, Congress Can and Should Force Them Back on the Job

Something I want to make abundantly clear. I am in no way speaking for the union that represents me, my fellow employees and union members, nor the railroad I work for. These words are solely my own. 

Understand one thing, I realize the impact even a short strike will have on a very fragile economy. I don't want one either. But every once in a while steps have to be taken that are unpleasant and painful.

The New Digital Age

This link should be of interest to anyone who even remotely concerned about the direction the world is heading.

If any of my readers read the Left Behind series, the mark of the beast was discussed at length. If my memory serves me right, the mark was a brand of some kind. In depiction across the ages of this mark it was some kind of physical mark on the body. But the Bible never specifically states how the mark is displayed. Are these digital IDs the mark?

Is Trump Done? (Revised)

After much thought and deliberations I have decided to resind what I have written below. I don't think I wrote the post in anger. I did write with some despair. I watched us lose several elections that were very winnable. Probably taken via shenanigans. I also watched out GOP "leadership" fail in more ways than I can count.

They didn't provide the campaign funding necessary to win.

They have not, and will not, put forth any effort to overcome the strategies, both legal and illegal, that the progressives have honed to an art form.

They will not recognize the party has changed. Yes, we are still moral in how we live our lives. But no longer are we the party of big businesses. Take a look at the top 10 richest people in the USA. Eight of them donate solely to progressive causes and candidates. Only Peter Theil and Elon Musk donate to conservatives. And Musk is not fully on board. Nearly every company in the USA (and the world) have gone woke. Yet our party "leaders" continue to beg for table scraps.

Initially, my thoughts ran towards DeSantis. But the more I read about him the more I become concerned. That the McConnell/Romney branch have remained quiet regarding DeSantis says volumes. While I still feel, outside of Trump, DeSantis is our best options, I am no longer comfortable throwing my support behind him.

TRUMP 2024!!!!

I am going to say something that is going to be unpopular here. It is time we moved away from Trump. Not because I want us to go back to the old ways, but because he has become a bit of a liability. Before we go too far down the road here I will acknowledge that his track record endorsing candidates was nearly perfect. 93% of the candidates he endorsed won at all levels, including primaries, state level and national offices. The caveat here is nearly all of those wins were in districts that really weren’t all that competitive. In districts that were close, his track record wasn’t as good. In Washington state, his endorsed candidate lost. The previous District 03 representative was a republican. However, she made a mistake in voting to impeach Trump, which put her in the cross hairs. I’d bet a dime that she and her team tried to make a calculated decision for her upcoming 2022 campaign. In a purple district, sometimes one has to make decisions that MIGHT go against your normal stances. She was primaried and lost to Joe Kent who was endorsed by Trump. This district is and has been purple. A region that might not take to Trumpism. While I was in favor of taking down those republicans who voted to impeach Trump like Cheney and the putz from Illinois, Herrera-Beutler needed to be saved. Yes, she voted against Trump. But she was a reliable, if squishy, republican, and most importantly, represented a purple district. Incumbency has its benefits, and I have no doubt she would have won fairly handily. In Pennsylvania his endorsed candidate lost to a man who has the mental capacity of a 12 year old (just a guess, not a medical diagnosis). I wonder if Dr. Oz could have won if he didn’t have Trump’s endorsement. Considering how corrupt Pennsylvania elections can be, I do have my doubts. But maybe if Oz wasn’t endorsed by Trump, the cheating apparatus would have not swung into full gear. Who knows.

Twitter Changes

First of all, I need to make sure that you all understand that I have never been a twitter user. I have seen many threads over the years at various web sites I frequent, but I don’t (as of now) have an account. That could change though since Elon Musk has bought the company.

Two reasons for my lack of participation.

1. The censorship. If you have followed me over the years I am not someone who parses what I say. I’m opinionated and not afraid of stating what I think. I’ve been aware for quite some time that there has been some sort of connection between government agencies and social media. I didn’t need an in-depth study from any agency to tell me that social media companies and government agencies aren’t working hand-in-hand. It is so obvious to anyone who even remotely pays attention and is honest with themselves. Of course, we are all aware this censorship worked only one way. If you didn’t toe the official party/government/media narrative line, then you were canceled. 

2. While it may seem like a bit of a stretch the second reason does line up with the first. Never actually witnessed it myself but apparently there was much going on twitter that related to child exploitation. I will not kid myself and say perverts don’t run the political spectrum. The difference comes in how each side views child exploitation overall. Based on what has been going on over the last several years, it is notable there seems to be a movement slowly gaining traction to normalize child exploitation. This movement is NOT coming from the right, it is purely a progressive movement. Fortunately, it is still mostly condemned by a very large percentage. However, despite this nearly universal condemnation, twitter choose to focus their efforts on silencing conservatives rather than shutting down these other accounts. Twitter and other social media sites are owned, run, and staffed by progressives. Coincidence? 

Well, it seems that Musk is going to make an effort to clean up twitter. He is going to make it a priority to get rid of child exploitation on twitter. I view this as something that should be his top priority and apparently that is just what he is going to do. So, with his efforts to cut ties with the federal government censors who are telling what and who twitter to censor, he is now going to get rid of the perverts. Good on him. And I might just have to open an account.
