Jimmy Kimmel’s Monologue Last Night

Posted on by

I don’t normally post Kimmel’s stuff. While I think he is usually dead on in his criticism of Trump, I frequently don’t enjoy his comedy sketches. The events in Los Angles are a welcome distraction for Trump, from his “Big Beautiful Bill” that will kick 7.7 million people off Medicaid, reduce or eliminate SNAP benefits for needy families, make most civil servants eligible to fire and replace with sycophants, and so many more dreadful things. Not to mention Elon’s casual mention of Trump being in the Epstein files (something most of us knew anyway). So Trump wants this fight. Kimmel puts the whole thing into perspective…

It is interesting that Trump’s insurgents, who broke into the Capitol and assaulted police, were “fine people” who were mistreated. But these protestors are “bad actors” and “paid protestors”.

Arnold is the Voice of Common Sense

Posted on by

Arnold Schwarzenegger tells climate activists to ‘stop whining’ because they don’t have any support from the White House. ‘Sometimes problems need to be solved by the people’

Will Smith said when he was just starting out he met Arnold and said, “I want to be a movie star like you. How do I do it?” Arnold replied, “If you want to be a movie star you can’t just be popular in the U.S.” Smith said it was common sense, but no one else ever told him that, and it was important. Back before he was governor in California, Arnold had a Humvee converted to electric. He said, “No one will buy electric cars until they’re sexy.” Tesla proved that one right. Watching a video of a Tesla Plaid Edition blow the doors off a Dodge Hellcat in a drag race was pretty cool. Arnold often has the sense to put things into perspective really simply. If you haven’t before, watch his video he released after the January 6th 2020 insurgence. Great stuff. Sadly you have to be native born to be President because he’s one Republican I would vote for.

The Planet is on Fire

Climate change is going to cost A LOT. This year is predicted to have record temperatures. Guess what year is the current record holder? That would be last year. Second place goes to 2023, third to 2022 and so on. The longer we wait to deal with this, the longer we stall, the more it will cost our kids.

Drugs are Bad, Unless Elon Does Them

Drug claims overshadow Musk’s Oval Office farewell

Hmmm. Well I’m sure that’s not going to fly…

Stephen Miller on report of Musk drug use: We’re worried about drugs crossing the border

I guess it did. Incompetence and drug use all in one. Invest in Tesla now!

BTW, Those that are ignorant of history are doomed to repeat it. If only Musk studied the stories of other businessmen who tried this…

100 years before Elon Musk, one of America’s richest men came to fix Washington. It didn’t end well.

The richest men are always surrounded by sycophants who will tell them they are geniuses. Maybe they are smart, but they are also lucky. They forget that part. Business and government are two completely different entities. They would be wise to remember that. It looks like Elon also thought he knew more than doctors and prescribed himself medications he shouldn’t have. Elvis fell for that one.

A Solemn Message of Remembrance from the President

Posted on by

This morning Donald Trump wrote this…

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY TO ALL, INCLUDING THE SCUM THAT SPENT THE LAST FOUR YEARS TRYING TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY THROUGH WARPED RADICAL LEFT MINDS, WHO ALLOWED 21,000,000 MILLION PEOPLE TO ILLEGALLY ENTER OUR COUNTRY, MANY OF THEM BEING CRIMINALS AND THE MENTALLY INSANE,THROUGH AN OPEN BORDER THAT ONLY AN INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT WOULD APPROVE, AND THROUGH JUDGES WHO ARE ON A MISSION TO KEEP MURDERERS, DRUG DEALERS, RAPISTS, GANG MEMBERS, AND RELEASED PRISONERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD, IN OUR COUNTRY SO THEY CAN ROB, MURDER, AND RAPE AGAIN — ALL PROTECTED BY THESE USA HATING JUDGES WHO SUFFER FROM AN IDEOLOGY THAT IS SICK, AND VERY DANGEROUS FOR OUR COUNTRY. HOPEFULLY THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT, AND OTHER GOOD AND COMPASSIONATE JUDGES THROUGHOUT THE LAND, WILL SAVE US FROM THE DECISIONS OF THE MONSTERS WHO WANT OUR COUNTRY TO GO TO HELL. BUT FEAR NOT, WE HAVE MADE GREAT PROGRESS OVER THE LAST 4 MONTHS, AND AMERICA WILL SOON BE SAFE AND GREAT AGAIN! AGAIN, HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY, AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I’m not sure what to say, from “happy Memorial Day” onward. How can this be our country? Aren’t we better than this strange petty man?

Another Attack on Public Education in Ohio

Posted on by

It is hard enough for districts to get levies and bond issues passed. This is just another assault on Public Education because teacher unions are the last public unions that reliably raise money for Democratic candidates. I mean, if Republican candidates supported schools like some of them used to, this wouldn’t be an issue. But it’s the kids who are losing out.

YouTube video from WEWS Channel 5: Ohio bill would restrict election, levy information from being sent out during early voting

You can’t embed a video from News Channel 5 I guess, so you must watch it on Youtube.

Why Has Trump Fired the Librarian of Congress?

Posted on by

The Librarian of Congress is a position appointed by the U.S. Congress and they run the Library of Congress. It’s a a political appointment and for once the lady holding the position, Dr. Carla Hayden, actually has a PhD in Library Sciences. So what’s up? Well, the congressional librarian also hires the head of the copyright office.
Currently A.I. companies around the world are looking for massive amounts of data to feed into their large language learning models. Copyrighted material costs money to buy for such a use. Artists are notoriously worried about losing control of their work permanently once it goes in. That is not irrational. Tests in the past have shown that when you ask the A.I. to write, say, a poem and describe an existing poem that has been entered into its program, it simply retrieves the original poem or writes one so completely derivative it might as well be the same one. Did I mention that Trump’s good friend Elon Musk owns an A. I. company? The same Elon Musk who has advocated for dumping all intellectual property laws for this reason?
Just another payout.

So We Are Now Doing Putin’s Dirty Work

Posted on by

This woman is being held because she expressed opinions about Putin’s war against Ukraine. She used the supposed freedom of speech we have in the United States (or at least, we used to have) to express her opinion of Putin’s illegal war. No she may be sent back to his clutches. Make no mistake, Trump is doing what his boss wants here…

Education in America

Posted on by

So recently I saw a new Thomas Sowell video cropped up on Youtube entitled: “Sowell EXPOSES Why American Education Is a Global MOCKERY”. Sowell is an interesting guy. Sometimes when I watch a video of his I think yeah, right problem, weird conclusion. It’s like you took your car to a mechanic and he said, “Spark plugs are bad so we should drop your gas tank.” You’d think “What?” I won’t link to the video, as America’s most prominent African-American conservative intellectual does not need my help in publicizing his views.
