Welcome to what may turn out to be a pretty crazy website. My name is Jay (obviously), and I am an engineer, budding author and most importantly, … father. Normally, I am pretty shy and wouldn’t fool with establishing a website, but as some of my AI models have begun to attract attention, and I release my first two books, it seemed like a more natural step than having my content spread out over many different platforms and sites. Whether you are here because you stumbled upon me by mistake, need someone adept in artificial neural networks, are considering reading a bit of my writing, or like me, are trying to find good experiences to pass on to your child, I hope you find this site useful and informative. I know the layout and design of this website currently suck, … but hey, … at least there are not annoying ads popping up, driving you to test the integrity of your screen with your forehead 🙂 Hopefully at some point, I will get the figurative doors attached and the roof tiles nailed down. Feel free to use the Contact link, as I welcome comments and hope to improve this venue as time passes. Enjoy some recent headlines below and thank you for your patronage!

November 20th, 2024 – National Geographic has released twenty of their best photos of 2024 culled from 2.3 million submissions:

November 20th, 2024 – Continuing what appears to be one giant middle finger to the people of America, Trump has nominated toady, Linda McMahon, the wife of WWE president, Vince McMahon to be the Secretary of Education, …. a department he would like Linda to close down.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/19/politics/linda-mcmahon-education-secretary-trump/index.html

If readers recall, the previous education secretary under Trump was Betsy DeVos, the daughter and wife of billionaires, and a woman who hated education. At least to her credit, she stepped down after Trump tried to lead the only coup in U.S. history. My suspicion is that Linda will do whatever Trump commands, … no questions asked.

There you have it, …. oil drilling yes, partisanship yes, pedophiles yes, sexual assaulters yes, toadies yes, …. education, …. mehh, … not really a priority.

Here is where a sensible person might point out that many of the countries in the world renowned for their education systems (Finland, Singapore, Denmark, etc ….) all use a standardized approach which covers and tests the same science-based material equally for every student. Of course, … why would we want that, …. this be ‘Merika by God. Oklahoma and Alabama should have lower standards than California and New Hampshire. We don’t need none of that “standards” sh$! here!

Freedumb motherf#$%@#, …. hell yeah!

November 19th, 2024 – Fortunately, hackers have accessed the files behind Matt Gaetz paying for sex with women under age 18 when he was aged 35 years old.

Ya gotta admit, the guy looks like Greg Stillson (check in literature if you don’t know who that is).

I mean, …. who does not want to have a pedophile as the highest legal officer in the entire country? I know I do, …. way to go with that Alpha male behavior Gaetz. You should be congratulated Sir!, …. You would have gotten even more points if she had been 16 or 15, … and even more so if you were able to pay her less than a fifty!

Hopefully, the hackers will release the info to the public in the next few days.

November 19th, 2024 – I was joking around with some friends and we have come up with the perfect poster to represent the future Trump administration:

Nothing speaks to the over the top stupidity better than Team America. The team even has their own modded vehicles:

November 18th, 2024 – Next up, the man chosen to run the Health and Human Services Department does not believe in vaccination:

Ya know, … that vaccination stuff, … the same stuff that has saved over a billion lives during the last two centuries, … but of course, RFK Jr, who has never attended one day of medical school or training in his life (like Joe Rogan) knows better. Getting my popcorn ready for the cluster$#@! nightmare that is about to befall America health.

Remember, … Trump only picks the best. Freedumb, …. hell yeah motherf#$@%$ !

November 17th, 2024 – Trump’s pick for the Secretary of Defense, Peter Hegseth, apparently sexually assaulted a woman he met at a conference in Monterey, CA. The incident took place on October 8th, 2017 at the Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa. The incident was so severe that she was taken to the emergency room in Monterey and a rape kit was used by the authorities. The woman had bruising on her thighs and it seems that Hegseth was able to pay her off with a settlement.

…. Ahh Trump, … remember, … he only picks the finest.

Now, ya gotta remember that Hegseth is a guy who goes around touting that he is a “Christian Warrior” for Christ. He even has tattoos on his chest advertising his macho Christian Warrior status:

The crazy cross thing on his right breast is a Jerusalem Cross, … as in the symbol used by knights involved in the Crusades over 800 years ago. Now, my memory is a bit fuzzy but I thought knights were supposed to defend the helpless, protect the weak, uphold justice, and be faithful to their wives. Apparently Pete, who claims to admire Jesus and the message of the New Testament has not actually read the New Testament. Sexually assaulting or raping women in a Monterey hotel room is not exactly the action of a “Christian Warrior.” Of course, 84% of self-described evangelicals voted for Trump in 2020, so perhaps it really is all relative, … right? I am sure Jesus would approve.

And while we are on it, let’s take a look at Pete’s “Christian” behavior:

Here is a picture of Pete beside his first wife, Meredith Schwarz:

According to numerous sources, the good Christian Pete, cheated on her numerous times and eventually ended up with wife #2 (anyone seeing a Trump-like pattern here), Samantha Deering:

But Samantha and the three children she produced for the cheating Pete apparently did not hold his attention long as he soon cheated again with Fox News producer, Jennifer Rauchet:

… with whom he had a secret love child, despite his Christian Warrior status.

Does this behavior resemble a warrior fighting for Christ to you?

Of course if you are a decent person reading this, you’re likely to be shocked this guy is even being considered for high office, …. or you could be a self-ordained Trump-loving male saying to yourself, “Hell yeah Pete, …. bang as many broads as you can before your willy stops working!”

Remember, … Trump only picks the best, …. right? Freedumb, ….. motherf#$@%$! … hell yeah!

November 16th, 2024 – Trump has picked Chris Wright, the CEO of a fracking company to be the U.S. Secretary of Energy. This guy denies that climate change is manmade and believes that increased drilling is the answer to America’s energy needs.

Do you care about the environment, …. want a better world for your children than the polluted one from the 1970s or 1980s that you inherited? Not with this guy, …. it’s gonna be drill baby drill!

Freedumb, …. f$#! yeah!

November 15th, 2024 – The FBI says that racist and hate filled messages are now being sent out to Hispanic and LGBTQ people:

https://www.usnews.com/news/top-news/articles/2024-11-15/fbi-says-bigoted-text-messages-also-sent-to-lgbtq-hispanic-people

Ahh, Trump, …. he and his supporters always working to make the world a warmer and kinder place.

November 13th, 2024 – Muslims, especially in the state of Michigan who gave Trump their votes are disheartened at his pro-Israel cabinet picks:

https://www.usnews.com/news/top-news/articles/2024-11-15/muslims-who-voted-for-trump-upset-by-his-pro-israel-cabinet-picks

Hold my beer a minute, ….. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Here is my message to Muslim supporters of Trump in Michigan, …. you’all dumb as f$#@ !

If you, a Muslim reader are reading this now, …. Do you know what the white men who control the Trumplican party think of you? You do know they would happily see you shipped out on old aircraft carriers by the hundreds of thousands if they could get away with it, … right? Some in the Trumplican party would be just fine with you disappearing into ovens, …Auschwitz style.

Wake up!!!

November 12th, 2024 – Trump has picked his own personal lawyers for high-level posts in the US Dept. of Justice. Top of his list is his personal lawyer, Todd Blanche. I mean, nothing has ever gone wrong when personal assistants are picked to lead national agencies. What could go wrong with that?

Hell yeah, …. Freedumb all the way, … motherf#$%@# !

November 11th, 2024 – Roughly ten thousand North Korean troops are supposedly in Russia and will begin attacking Ukrainian positions shortly:

https://www.usnews.com/news/top-news/articles/2024-11-12/north-korean-soldiers-joining-russia-in-combat-us-state-dept-says

Two wonderful, warm-hearted men that Trump is apparently very fond of. Much of the Trumplican world now considers them to be friends (while they laugh their asses off at how dumb and gullible the U.S. population is).

November 8th, 2024 – Predictions for the next four years under Trump

Starting in January of 2025, Trump will bypass the regular appointment process and place loyalists at-large across all the top 5000 political positions of the U.S. government. Most of these he won’t even bother gaining Congressional approval as is now the norm.

These loyalists will swear personal oaths to Trump, … not to the Constitution as all U.S. officer holders currently do. (This is the first step that Hitler undertook for his aides after being sworn in 1932.)

There will be no Bill Barr, Mark Esper, Mark Milley, or James Mattis to stem Trump’s worst impulses. He will have free reign to try things that are wildly illegal or unlawful.

Trump will assume he has carte blanche powers since the Supreme Court ruled presidents cannot be tried for official acts. The craziness of January 6th will seem mild by the time 2027 roles around.

Trump will fire Special Prosecutor Jack Smith on his first day in office to make his federal cases go away.

Within his first year, Trump will pardon all those convicted of attacking the Capitol Building. He will try to rewrite history saying that they were legitimately protesting how the election was stolen from him in 2020.

Within the first month, Trump or one of his lackies will fire most of the senior staff at the U.S. Department of Justice. They will be replaced with attorneys who are loyal to Trump personally. They will then begin to bring charges against political opponents that Trump feels attacked him from 2020 to 2024. His Reign of Grievance will begin. Judges like Juan Merchant will be his primary targets.

As he did in 2016, Trump will appoint people to Secretary level positions who have no expertise in the departments they are overseeing. Elon Musk is likely to be given some ability to begin cutting Federal civil service workers and remove their employment protections, … essentially turning them into political appointees that Trump can control at will. RFK Jr may be appointed as Health and Human Secretary and then stop some vaccines from reaching pediatricians across the country. If he can pull it off, he will do away with the U.S. Dept. of Education and possibly the EPA.

Melania Trump, who hated being First Lady will again be an absentee First Lady and will avoid doing most of the duties that First Ladies typically carry out.

Within the first six months, mass deportations of illegal immigrants will begin until very shortly after, a head of lettuce rises to $7 and purchasing six hot wings at KFC costs $25. Mass deportations will then quickly stop due to the Republican businessmen who own companies like Foster Farms. If you thought your grocery prices were high before the election conservatives, … let’s see what happens when you deport 1.5 million Hispanics. This should be an interesting dumpster fire.

Trump will claim he is going to finish building the wall at the Mexican border (of which only 47 new miles was actually built from 2020 to 2024, … none of which Mexico paid for). By 2028, only twenty more miles of new wall will actually be finished and Mexico won’t be paying for any of that either.

All the millions of Hispanics who voted for Trump will initially be happy until black vans from ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) start capturing and black bagging people in their neighborhoods. This is the seed that will eventually lead to the domestic suspension of habeas corpus (the domestic equivalent to what the CIA did after 9/11 with black sites in various countries outside the U.S.). In the first year or two, mainly illegal immigrants will be targeted but eventually, ICE will often attempt to capture legal U.S. citizens of Latin American descent for forceable repatriation. All those Hispanic families who thought they wanted Trump as president will very soon be his first victims.

Under Trump’s orders, thousands of private companies will begin drilling for gas and oil in national parks and wildlife refuges. Animals, plants, rare species, …. f$%! em, … conservatives must get their gas price down to $2.50 a gallon. Sponsorship of solar, wind, electric, and fusion will drop to almost zilch as fossil fuels industries resume their close connection to the Trump administration.

In the first year, Trump with allies in Congress will again pass a massive tax cut that will primarily benefit corporations and the those in the top 3% income bracket. This will drive up the deficit, placing more pressure on the US dollar.

If protestors march in the streets, loyalists at the Pentagon and National Guard will follow Trump’s directives to fire on U.S. citizens. Use of police and military forces against political opponents or marchers will begin.

Trump will likely implement large-scale tariffs on thousands of foreign products creating higher prices and enlarging the trade deficit.

The 40 million people in Ukraine will be overwhelmed by Russia as Trump abandons them to Putin. A far greater threat will then arise within two years as Putin threatens Poland and Moldavia and the Baltic States.

Trump may try to remove the U.S. from NATO setting off a worldwide calamity as China and Russia interpret that as a sign to expand offensive operations against places like Taiwan and Central Asia.

It is hard to say, but I roughly see something like a 30% chance that states like California or the entire West Coast may eventually break away and declare succession, perhaps starting a civil war if Trump rules illegally within 3 to 5 years from now.

Initially, Trumpers and hard-right conservatives will be overjoyed until the excesses begin to mount up. Eventually, things will become so unbalanced that it will begin to negatively affect even those who most supported Trump in 2024, … but there will no longer be a method for stopping the carnage. Plenty of Trumplicans (as of 2024, there is no more Republican party) will be profoundly shocked but much as they have done since 2016, they will bend the knee and the carnage will no longer be able to be stopped. This is exactly what happened to many who supported Hitler by 1937. They went from his supporters to his victims. They themselves could not believe it when the ideals they voted for killed them.

I see it as unlikely that Trump will leave office voluntarily in 2028. He will claim there is unrest and that vote counting has irregularities, declaring martial law and then postpone or suspend the election. Loyalists at the Pentagon will use the military to enforce his directives.

Eventually, Trump will become senile and then JD Vance or some other tool will not be elected but appointed as the replacement. I would roughly guess with 50% surety that 2024 was the last free election the U.S. will ever hold for president.

You wanted your egg prices to be lower conservatives, …. get ready for a truly dark path ahead.

November 6th, 2024 – Trump has won the 2024 election fairly. If current trends hold, he should sweep all the battleground states.

Congratulations America, … you just elected a convicted felon who was twice impeached and has cheated on every wife he’s had to our highest office in order to save $1.10 per gallon of gas. The people of the planet are laughing their asses off at how f#$%#@! stupid we are.

Why did he win?

In my opinion, too many people were hurt by the price of gas and the price of eggs and high mortgage rates. For a family of four, everyday items cost about $1153 more per month than they did in 2019. As James Carville told Clinton in 1992, “It’s the economy stupid.” Surprisingly, by most national and international metrics, the U.S. economy is actually doing pretty well, … better than many other First World nations as of November, 2024. But people can’t feel that in their pocketbook. 71 to 74% of U.S. voters thought the country was moving in the wrong direction, … mainly due to increased costs. COVID supply chain disruptions from 2020 to 2023 had a tremendously damaging effect leading to less supply and more demand, … and more inflation. That economic uncertainty sank Trump in 2020 and sank Kamala in 2024. People in America want their gas cheap and their eggs cheap, … and they don’t care if they have to kill tens of thousands of Iraqis to get it or give up democracy. So here is my message to Trump supporters:

Millions of Germany people in the late 1920s grew frustrated with the price of eggs and gas too. They grew so frustrated they began to have faith in a miserable human being who preached hate and darkness. They were willing to overlook that though if their egg prices went down. If their mortgage rate dropped. If a pound of meat was cheaper. They were even willing to give up their democracy for it. In the end, more than 4.3 million Germans were dead, 8 million were injured, and the country lay in ruins thirteen years later.

Back on July 21st (see below), I predicted that Kamala Harris could not win the battleground states. America is too conservative to elect a woman, especially a minority woman. Instead, … you, … the Trump voters have turned to a man who represents the worst of humanity. A man who has been preaching hatred and grievance and darkness since roughly 2012.

Initially, in the next 18 months, you may feel giddy. Hey, … we won! You did, …. but in the end the same machine that made him may unmake you. Mark my words, you may have just given up democracy for a tyrant. According to recent polling, roughly 42% of you would be happy to trade in democracy, … but you have never lived in Russia or China or Hungary. (Only about 51% of Republicans in the U.S. have ever left the country.) You’ve never seen the black vans that patrol the streets at night or the pro-forma trials. You’ve never seen political opponents killed or lived with an absence of the Fourth Estate. You may think, … Ah, that can never happen in America. …. Until it does, … and then even you, … the conservative, … won’t be smiling.

And to all the Trump readers who come across my site, …. best move me to the top of the opposition list. I will, …. NEVER, …. comply with any aspect of any future Trump administration. I will do everything in my power to undermine him and anyone he appoints politically in any sphere we co-occupy …. even if it costs me my life. Bank on it motherf%#@^!s.

November 5th, 2024 – Today’s message comes directly from President Obama:

To recall that famous phrase, … All it takes for evil to thrive is that good men and women do nothing. Let’s put a stake in the vampire that is Trump once and for all! Get out and vote!

November 4th, 2024 – As will come as no surprise to any reader that visits this site often, …. I am endorsing Kamala Harris for President for 2024. I encourage all my readers to vote for Kamala.

Why you might ask?

1 – Democracy. For many U.S. voters, their top concern will be the economy, … egg prices and a gallon of gas. I agree the economy is incredibly important but not more important than democracy. We’ve had it in this country for 248 years. I don’t plan on giving that up in my lifetime. Trump told Christians on July 27th that if they vote for him this November, “in four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.” People close to Trump say, “Ah, he doesn’t mean it.” If you believe that, … then you believe spiders wish to be friends with flies. He means every word and his team of Heritage folks will work to implement their Project 2025 from November 6th if he should win. Trump already attempted the only coup in U.S. history, for which he should be hung by the neck until dead. … I don’t plan to let him try again.

2 – Over 123 former, senior, Trump officials who worked with him daily from 2016 to 2020 are now casting their vote for Kamala and warning about the dangers of another Trump presidency. Every single one of those 123 is a Republican and strong conservative. I know of no former senior Biden officials who are warning about a Kamala presidency. If that many people who worked with Trump on a daily basis are warning us about him, … perhaps we should listen.

3 – Trump is a convicted felon. I am not voting for a convicted felon for U.S. President. I got standards motherf$%^#$ !

4 – The economy is terribly important, … and for myself personally, … my wallet has done better under Clinton, Obama, and Biden than under Bush Sr. Bush Jr, and Trump. End of story.

5 – Kamala is honestly a decent person. She shows compassion to others and genuinely tries to be a good human being. She respects opinions different than her own and is willing to listen to those who disagree with her. She can also laugh at herself and is not thin skinned.

6 – I firmly believe in the right of a woman to control her own body and her own pregnancy. Some religious people in the U.S. believe that abortion is wrong. My reply to them, … great, … practice that in your own house and don’t try to dictate policy to the millions of people who do not share your religious beliefs. If Trump and the white men who really control the policies of the Republican party got their way, women would be forced back into the 1950s against their will. I don’t want to live in the 1950s and neither do 75% of U.S. women.

7 – Trump is incurious. Unlike the vast majority of U.S. Presidents, he does not read widely or admire education. His primary hobbies are tits and golf. While countries like Germany had women like Angela Merkel with a doctorate in physics representing them, we had Trump, … a man widely known to know nothing. Trump was so unsuited to the White House that his advisors actually had to bring in a lawyer (Don McGahn in 2021) to explain the Constitution to him. That is a f#$%#@! embarrassment. Trump often mentions his genius level of intelligence, …. Pleassseeee bitch, … in the one debate you actually had, Kamala wiped the floor with your ass so badly that your handlers actually scuttled all future debates. Trump does not have the intelligence, curiosity, or …. most importantly, … the compassion to be U.S. President.

8 – Despite being a liberal, Kamala worked as a prosecutor and district attorney. She regularly went after drug cartels, medicare fraud, predatory for-profit colleges and bank loans. She also supported criminal justice so that people who like marijuana are not treated like felons and housed with hardened criminals.

9 – Science is real, … and it works just fine. It is the reason airplane fly, lights turn on, and cellphone networks work. Over the past 25 years, Republicans have increasingly disparaged topics as varied as evolution by natural selection to vaccinations. For many conservatives, conspiracy theories and pseudoscience have replaced critical thinking, mathematics, and the scientific method. I’ll never support that bullshit approach.

10 – African Americans, Hispanics, and those who are LGBTQ+ are not really viewed as people in Trump’s eyes. If the core white men of the Republican party could have their dreams come true, …. all three groups would be loaded onto aircraft carriers for mass deportation, …. or loaded into ovens. If you are Black or Hispanic reading this and think that Trump or his cronies gives even one shit about you, …. you are badly, badly mistaken.

11 – Kamala lifts women up, … Trump treats women like shit. This is the guy after all who famously said on camera, “I reach down and grab em by the pu##%.” Trump has been sued by 28 different women claiming various levels of unwanted sexual advance or rape. His first wife, Ivana, famously spoke out about being anally raped by Trump in 1989 (during her 1990 sworn divorce deposition). If Trump were anyone but Trump, he would long ago be in prison for the way in which he has abused women. Combine that with the fact that Trump appointed Supreme Court judges he knew would overturn Roe vs Wade, …. I mean for FFS, even Ireland, Spain, and Italy allow abortion and ya don’t get any more Catholic than that. The guy is clearly a threat to all women, … everywhere. Unless you admire Gilead, … vote Harris.

12 – I support the right of Ukraine to decide their own destiny and not be taken over by Putin. Putin has killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people (both Ukrainians and his own) in an illegal war when Ukraine posed no threat to Russia. For almost 25 years, Putin has attempted to forcibly remake the Soviet Union, … which is never coming back. If Ukraine falls, … Putin will then turn his attention to NATO ally Poland. Stopping Putin in Ukraine, although expensive, is what “good guy” nations do. It is what America and her allies did in World War II. I plan to support the good guys.

13 – Trump is taking advantage of gullible Christians who have somehow convinced themselves that Trump is a religious man. LMFAO …. the only God Trump worships is, … himself. If you’re Christian and respect the message of Jesus in the New Testament, … you would know immediately that Trump and Jesus have nothing in common. …. Nothing.

14 – Finally, Trump mismanaged COVID. If the U.S. had followed the same policies that Canada followed with respect to COVID, only about ~ 380,000 people would have died instead of the 1.2 million who have. Roughly 800,000 people died under the Trump administration who did not need to and would have been alive if they had lived in Canada. When the next crisis comes, I don’t want Trump at the wheel. I wanted a sensible, level-headed leader like Kamala Harris.

Please help our country out by keeping democracy and voting for Kamala Harris on November 5th for U.S. President.

November 1st, 2024 – Everyone knows that Trump will come out early before the tallying is even competed and claim victory. The only betting question is when? …. My guess, … 1:35 AM Eastern Standard Time. A few of my Republican friends have said that Trump will wait until all counting is completed. To that I say:

September 17th, 2024 – Scientific America has only made a recommendation once before for U.S. president in its 179 year history. In 2024 they are recommending Kamala Harris for president . This is part of what they had to say:

“The US faces two futures,” the editors wrote, pushing one candidate who “offers the country better prospects, relying on science, solid evidence and the willingness to learn from experience.”

They continued: “In the other future, the new president endangers public health and safety and rejects evidence, preferring instead nonsensical conspiracy fantasies.”

September 10th, 2024 – Kamala Harris has won her first debate with Donald Trump if betting markets worldwide are to be believed.

Most betting markets say Kamala was considered the winner by a 90 to 94% margin to 6% margin for Trump. She did manage to get Trump talking about people in Ohio eating cats. That was pretty funny, …. take a look:

I’ve also never seen anyone “alpha” someone with a handshake but she did. Congrats Kamala!

The biggest celebrity endorsement of 2024 is probably Taylor Swift. After the debate, she gave her support to Kamala Harris. Again, pretty funny since Trump released fake A.I. created images of Taylor supporting him.

September 8th, 2024 – This is a public service announcement to all my readers, … I am asking everyone to reconsider doing business with Ebay.

Ebay has become so greedy that they now feel entitled to take 15% of every single sale a seller makes on the platform. When Ebay began, I believe their commission was around 1%. I would urge all sellers to begin using other platforms in the same way customers are refusing to pay post-COVID prices in many areas. Ebay also has no phone number to reach anyone in the United States who can actually help you. You can only talk to pacifiers in the Philippines. I highly recommend my readers reject this company and their greed and turn to other auction and selling sites.

September 7th, 2024 – Arch-conservative Dick Cheney, the former Vice-President under George Bush has said that he will vote for Kamala Harris for president:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/09/06/dick-cheney-for-harris-like-liz-cheney/75106303007

He believes that Trump is the single greatest threat to the United States in the modern era.

September 6th, 2024 – Colin Gray, the father of Colt Gray, the boy who killed four people at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia has been charged with murder for purchasing his son an AR-15 as a Christmas gift AFTER his son threatened to shoot up the school:

September 5th, 2024 – Allan Lichtman, the professor and historian who has correctly predicted all the previous presidential elections believes that Kamala Harris will win the 2024 election:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/historian-accurately-predicted-9-last-115138503.html

Professor Allan Lichtman of American University

He did predict Al Gore to win in 2000 and Al Gore did win the popular vote but the Supreme Court stopped the counting in favor of George “Nukleare Strategery” Bush who went on to lead us to a massive war in Iraq that accomplished nothing and the Great Recession. Therefore, some might say he is nine out of ten when it comes to predicting.

September 4th, 2024 – Well, we were long overdue for the next school shooting, … and now we have it at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia. At least four innocent people are dead while nine others have been shot by 14-year-old Colt Gray.

14-year-old murder suspect Colt Gray

All the victims were shot with, … yes, you guessed it, … an AR-15 purchased by the boy’s father (Colin Gray) after the boy threatened to shoot up the school in 2023. Amazing, …. his son threatens to shoot up the school so the father buys his son an AR-15 as a Christmas gift so he can complete the job?!!! Even crazier, it appears he named his son after Samuel Colt, the 19th century firearms manufacturer! The father has now been charged with murder and manslaughter and will likely be going to prison along with his son.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/05/us/winder-georgia-shooting-apalachee-high-school/index.html

Richard Aspinwall, Christina Irimie, Mason Schermerhorn and Christian Angulo were all killed by another troubled teen who was able to take his father’s supposedly secured AR-15. Prosecute the parents like the Crumbleys in Michigan.

All would have been prevented if we simply adopted the laws and rules that 35 out of 36 First World nations follow (in Switzerland, anyone applying for a firearm permit must go for a live psychiatric interview). The rest of the world no longer lives in 1872 Dodge City, Kansas and it is time to join them!

August 27th, 2024 – The possibilities for Dark Matter continue to shrink:

August 23rd, 2024 – Tired of being asked, “What insurance card do you have?” rather than “What is wrong with you?” when you enter an American hospital? Afraid your kid might be murdered at school by the troubled teen whose father has loosely secured arms at home? Afraid you are going to have to take an expensive trip out-of-state to get treatment for a dangerous ectopic pregnancy? Upset that the richest 1% own 40% of everything you see around you? Afraid that the Supreme Court allows unlimited dark money to flow into elections? Afraid that Trump might be elected and continue his borish ass-clown behavior while lacking those most important human traits: integrity and compassion?

DON’T COMPLAIN, ……………………………. VOTE!!! You’re gonna get a chance in about 70 days!

August 22nd, 2024 – Kamala Harris accepted the nomination for President of the United States at the DNC:

August 15th, 2024 – The all important “double-hater” group of people who really did not want to see a rematch between Biden and Trump are now leaning heavily to Kamala Harris:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/harris-picks-double-haters-democratic-163023973.html

I would not say I am a double hater but I would really liked to be spared another 2020 type election. And unless Trump wins by a landslide, which all election exerts see as implausible (Biden won in 2020 by more than seven million votes nationwide), he is going to whine and whine and whine like a petulant child and claim he was cheated again.

August 14th, 2024 – Over the preceding eight days, Ukraine has taken over a section of motherland Russia near Kursk, …. and that makes me, ….. very happy.

https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/13/europe/why-ukraine-attacked-russia-intl/index.html

Putin is an absolute ass$%#!, ….and somehow thinks he is reforming the USSR. In reality, all he is doing is getting hundreds of thousands of people killed or maimed, including a staggering 530,000 (estimated) of his own men!!! And for what, …. a piece of Ukraine (about 14% of the country not counting Crimea which they illegally seized in 2014) that has almost no viable mines left, no viable factories operating, no major natural resources, and a grain crop that even at full production would take (according to the Economist) an amazing 43 years of full sales to pay for the money he has spent on war efforts so far. If someone said that Canada attacking Greenland is the dumbest idea they have ever heard of, …. Russia attacking Ukraine is even dumber. Absolute and pure stupidity.

August 12th, 2024 – Kamala Harris has now moved into the favored position at betting houses and online sites in Canada, the UK, and Europe.

Kamala, …. the favored candidate?

(Due to U.S. regulators, no legal betting site in the United States will take bets on a U.S. presidential election (thank God).) Most places now have Kamala at -100 to -125 in relation to Trump at even money to +100.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/harris-becomes-betting-favorite-presidential-105544205.html

Again, I don’t put too much stock in betting houses but they do very carefully gauge the sentiment of the public at large. If people are feeling upbeat about voting for a particular candidate or downbeat about another (as they did with respect to Biden in July), the betting markets will show that.

So many Americans were groaning in 2023 and early 2024, …. almost no one I know was looking forward to a rematch between Biden and Trump. It may be as simple as the first party to dump their old guy, … wins. About 80% of people are just looking for a return to normalcy, …. me included. I would actually look forward to a boring president who just does the job without all the theatrics.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/harris-3-points-against-trump-223749282.html

Several pundits back in the spring said that whichever party dumps their old guy first is the party that will go on to victory. They may be right. Let’s also not forget the lesson of Hillary in 2016 who thought she had the Blue Wall locked up and did not. Harris seems to be well aware of the mistakes that cost Hillary the election in 2016 and so far, seems to be making moves to avoid her difficulties.

August 6th, 2024 – Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota Governor, Tim Walz as her running mate for the 2024 election:

https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/kamala-harris-trump-election-08-06-24/index.html

Tim Walz, Governor of Minnesota and former Congressman, Educator, Coach, and Master Sergeant

Tim Walz began life after high school as a blue collar worker and later joined the U.S. Army as an enlisted soldier (later reaching the rank of Master Sergeant in the Army National Guard). He eventually earned degrees in education and later taught history and was a football coach in Mankato, Minn. From 2006, he was elected six times in a row and represented the 1st Congressional District of Minnesota. He is widely seen as a moderate who holds both progressive and conservative positions. He is mostly known for his likeable personality and ability to work with both sides of the aisle. Tim Walz is widely respected by both Democrats and Republicans both in Minnesota and in Congress for being someone reasonable and someone who can listen to opposing ideas.

August 5th, 2024 – I don’t put too much stock in polling as pertains to U.S. presidential elections. That being said, Nate Silver now has Kamala Harris slightly ahead nationally by about a point over Trump. Kamala is also leading in four of the seven battleground states (and continues to increase her share of voters in the other three):

https://www.yahoo.com/news/nate-silver-says-election-now-210456734.html

If polling is not that attractive to me, …. then what is? I tend to find Professor Allan Lichtman, who has correctly predicted eight of the nine preceding presidential elections correctly to be more trustworthy. (He actually predicted all nine previous elections correctly except that the Supreme Court threw the 2000 election to Bush. (Gore won the popular vote by over 500,000.))

Professor and Historian, Allan Lichtman

His system is based on broad trends and does not consider polling at all. Currently, he believes the advantages put Kamala Harris in a much stronger position to win the election than Trump. He has promised to make his official prediction in the days after the Democratic National Convention in late August.

There are less than 100 days to Election Day and I am excited to get out and drum up support for reasonable government by reasonable people who don’t want Gilead or a return to the 1950s! Am I a super fan of Kamala? … no I am not. But if my choice is between a rule abiding woman who will support democracy and reasonable government versus a narcissistic, wife-cheating, convicted felon, Putin wannabe who tried to start an insurrection and who hates American democracy, … the choice is clear, …. Kamala by a mile!!!

July 28th, 2024 – Trump is now saying that if he wins, … four years later in 2028, Christians won’t have to vote again because he will rig it so no more voting will be required:

He is now openly saying how corrupt he will be if elected, ….. WOW! Just cue the dictatorship. It is hard for me to believe that this guy is even attracting five percent of the American vote in a country where we have had democracy for roughly 250 years now!

Many Trump supporters have said that they like that the ex-President speaks his mind freely (please see Jim Jeffries comment on this) and speaks directly and off-the- cuff. If he speaks directly, …. then folks, … take him at his word; democracy is something he will work to destroy. Please keep him far away from the White House. He is a menace to humanity and freedom loving peoples everywhere.

July 26th, 2024 – The Trump assassination attempt, …. what to make of it?

Anyone who visits this site regularly knows that I dislike conspiracy theories with a passion. My motto has alway been the Laplacian minimum, better stated as ECREE: …. Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence. Simply put, if you claim that there are preserved alien bodies at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, you better have a sample of their tissue or a working ray gun, … or no one is going to believe you. How does that figure into the attempt on Trump’s life? …. We’ll get to that in a minute.

Yesterday, Director of the FBI, Christopher Wray testified that the FBI still remains unsure if Trump was hit with a bullet or shrapnel.

He basically said that the FBI is unsure what happened. It is also convenient that Crooks was killed almost immediately.

In a frame by frame analysis of the footage, there seem to be some contradictory claims. Given Trump’s penchant for theatrics and his TV background, ….. I will only say that my skepticism meter is ticking highly. In the photos where Trump is dropping down to dodge, there is no blood after the “impact.” (Photos taken by people in the crowd immediately behind him.) The shooter was directly to the right of Trump, so at the exact moment the bullets were fired (as Trump was looking straight ahead speaking to the crowd), they were not on a trajectory to graze his ear. Either they (the bullets) would have hit the right side of his head or missed. (There is some discrepancy as he began to duck and realized he was under fire, … so for now, I will say it was possible Trump had turned his head by the time of Crooks last shots.) Also, people who are under fire don’t in the middle of that fire with possibly more bullets on the way, suddenly raise their arm up in defiance. Anyone who has ever seen footage of people under threat from a shooter knows that people duck, run, and hide as fast as they can. It is base, low level programming of the mid-brain and brainstem taking over to preserve life.

The shooter was also directly to Trump’s right about 135 meters away. From 135 meters away with a modern AR-15 and optics, an 85-year-old could hit Trump with 95% accuracy if they previously sighted in their weapon, which Crooks did according to the FBI that morning. When I was a kid, I did a fair amount of hunting with my trusty 22 and Winchester 94. I never nicked a deer’s ear. One of two things happened and happened immediately, … I either hit dead on in which case the animal dropped or I missed and it ran off. The whole thing is one tiny hair away from being, …. staged.

That said, …. ECREE must hold. An extraordinary claim must have extraordinary evidence to support it. In this case, … there is no extraordinary evidence, …. yet. I look forward to continued investigation of the Trump shooting and Matthew Crooks motivations. Unless extraordinary evidence emerges, I will believe that an honest attempt was made on Trump’s life, and I would urge readers to not engage in unwanted conspiracy theories and consider the same.

July 25th, 2024 – Barack and Michelle Obama have given their endorsement to Kamala Harris for president:

https://apnews.com/article/barack-obama-endorses-kamala-harris-joe-biden-48e38547560ae64484399d278c697a7a

July 24th, 2024 – Potential life once existed on ancient Mars? Decide for yourself:

July 22nd, 2024 – As expected, Kamala Harris is trying to rally major Democratic party figures and donors to her cause. Again, …. with no disrespect to her, … she does not have the essential traits needed to win in the seven battleground states. For this reason, I urge my readers to call the Democratic National Committee at 202-863-8000 and voice your support for someone who actually has a chance to win, … like Mark Kelly and Gretchen Whitmer (and/or some combination including Beshear or Shapiro). In order to win a national election, the Democratic candidate MUST appeal to the possible Nikki Haley fan who dislikes Trump and the independents who have been hit hard by inflation and egg prices. That is not Kamala. If all of us call in now, the Democratic National Convention in August can hold open rounds of voting until the best candidates emerge. But we need to speak our voice NOW, … not in September when it will be too late.

July 21st, 2024 – Biden has decided to drop out of the race for U.S. president. He has endorsed Kamala Harris, his Vice-President.

I mean no disrespect to Kamala, …. but she has ZERO chance of winning in seven battleground states! (Which are the only ones that are important due to the messed up Electoral College system that the U.S. uses to elect presidents.)

Kamala does not endear or enjoy the respect of someone like Barack Obama. She is seen as too liberal and too partisan by many independents and conservatives to ever win in places like Georgia and Arizona. She would do far worse than Hillary did in 2016. Certainly, Kamala has some good traits, … but in a national election, …. she has ZERO chance of winning. Even if she is kept as the Vice President on a Democratic ticket, she will only pull it down. Now that Biden has stepped down, so should she.

So, … Who can Democrats put forth that actually has a chance to win and is widely admired amongst both conservatives and liberals? ….

How about Mark Kelly, Senator from Arizona for President, … and Gretchen Whitmer, Governor of Michigan for Vice-President. Both have won in battleground states, both are reasonable, both have integrity, and both according to those who have worked with them are good-hearted people. Please contact your local Congressional Representatives now and the National Democratic Party immediately to let them know that a Kelly-Whitmer ticket would attract many of the conservative soccer moms and Nikki Haley fans and Never Trump Republicans. A Kelly-Whitmer ticket would poll higher than Trump and Vance in every battleground state and would win widespread support from many independents (who actually decide presidential elections).

July 19th, 2024 – There has been much discussion amongst those I know as to what is best with respect to President Biden. Speaking for myself, I believe it is best that he and Kamala step down. Realistically, Biden tried to do good things and be an honorable man for four years but inflation and egg prices and the lingering effects of the COVID fiasco are now part of his label, even if that is unfair. He does not have the gas in the tank to go four more years and Kamala does not have the widespread popularity needed to win a general election across seven battleground states.

If they step down, who should replace them? My answer:

Arizona Senator, Mark Kelly

Arizona Senator Mark Kelly for President. He is moderate, well-educated, intelligent, and reasonable. He leans liberal on some social issues but also supports many conservative causes in Congress. He initially flew A-6E Intruder attack aircraft and later F14 Tomcats and F-18 Hornets for the U.S. Navy as a test pilot before commanding several Space Shuttle missions and then representing Arizona as a senator. Most notably, …. he has in abundance that crucial element that Trump lacks, …. integrity. He is widely viewed by all those who have worked with him to be a man of principle and a good human being overall. And who should be his running mate?

Michigan Governor, Gretchen Whitmer

Gretchen Whitmer is the governor of Michigan and is widely viewed as moderate and a person of good character. She would make an excellent Vice-President. She has initiated several decisions within the state of Michigan that have benefited her peoples. And she has the charisma and ability to appeal to independents who desire a team of moderates that will make decisions that benefit all Americans and not a select few.

A ticket with Kelly and Whitmer would not only poll well across the United States but would poll higher than Trump/Vance in all the battleground states. Independents and conservative Democrats along with all the Never-Trumpers and Nikki Haley fans would likely find a place for their vote in a Kelly – Whitmer ticket. Kelly and Whitmer also know how to win office in battleground states. In short, … it would be a winning ticket. If you are a reader of this site, then you know that I support moderate, reasoned government by people who are good human beings. Please contact both their offices and the National Democratic Office in support of a Kelly – Whitmer ticket.

Some might wonder, … why not switch the roles with Whitmer for President or a consideration of Josh Shapiro or Andy Beshear. Unlike numerous other First World nations who are now on their second, third, fourth, etc … female prime minister or president, …. sad as it is to say it, … America is just too conservative to elect a female to the top position yet. I would love to see our first female president, … but we as a nation just are not there yet. Hillary couldn’t pull it off and neither could Nikki Haley. Kamala Harris does not have wide support among independents needed to win. Michelle Obama might be able to but she wishes to remain out of politics. Sadly, we are close, … but not yet close enough to where we can have a female president. As to Shapiro and Beshear, either one could be an excellent running mate for Mark Kelly. The reason I like Kelly and Whitmer is that both are moderates who have won in battleground states. They know what it takes and they have a broad appeal that is lacking with Trump and Vance. I also like that both have good track records and both are widely considered by those who have dealt with them to be honestly good people. Being a good person, …. and a good-hearted person, …. matters, …. ALOT!!!

If Biden is going to step aside, then he needs to be replaced not by Kamala or Newsom or Pritzker, … none of whom can win a national election, … but by a team that really would work for all Americans and that is actually able to win. In my opinion, that ticket should be Kelly-Whitmer.

July 1st, 2024 – The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the president has some forms of immunity with regard to “official acts.” I couldn’t disagree more. One of the bedrock principles of the United States is that there is no Divine Right, …. no king, …. no emperor. Our country was founded by people wishing to flee such rulers. If the president of the United States receives a parking ticket, he or she must pay it or appear in court to appeal it, just as every other U.S. citizen must do. If the president commits an illegal act while in office, he or she must answer for it the same as any citizen. To say otherwise, … is not American. To argue that the President has a special immunity that is granted nowhere in the Constitution is a dangerous principle that will very quickly come back to haunt every citizen in the country. For example, under the new right granted by this immunity decision, Richard Nixon would not have been forced to step down. Biden could order DEVGRU (Seal Team Six) to assassinate Trump and then declare that he was protecting American democracy as an “official act.” Trump, who has declared he will be a dictator on only the first day if re-elected (who believes that bullshit?) will surely stretch this ruling to commit all manner of illegal acts.

Horrible decision for the U.S. people combined with the fact that six justices now dictate policy to 335 million people, 50 to 65% of whom disagree with the majority of their rulings. Take the overturning of abortion, …. 65 to 71% of women nationwide support the right to an abortion up until the 24th week and about 63 to 66% of men do. Polling done in 2023 shows that about 71 to 74% of Americans believe the president has no right to special immunity, with about 57% of Republicans agreeing.

As a result, I am now encouraging my readers to consider actively resisting any judgement which goes against the “good of the people.” Interpret that however you wish to.

June 28th, 2024 – The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that the Chevron Doctrine which has been used by the federal govt. to regulate numerous special areas of industry or commerce, … especially public health, consumer safety, and the environment is too far reaching in a 6 to 3 vote. This means that everything from monitoring the population of Maine lobsters so that they are not overfished to the amount of chemicals that food companies can pour into children’s cereals is now up for review and appeal by all the speciality bodies that make money off such tactics. In my opinion a major blow to the overall health and welfare of all U.S. citizens.

And the Biden versus Trump debate was a fairly large let down. Biden looked stiff, somewhat confused, and forgetful, particularly in the first ten minutes of the debate while Trump went off on wild tangents that had little connection to reality or involved well-known and disproven claims. Out of 335 million people in the country, … we can’t find two people who are both reasonable, grounded, in command of the facts and intelligent enough to do the job?

Important Past Posts – On May 1st, 2024, my first novel, The Song of Kiri was finally published and will soon be available on Amazon

Sept 28th, 2023 – Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Mark Milley, responds to Trump’s threat to kill him:

I know that roughly 35% of those that voted for Trump in the 2020 election were not true supporters of him. They just wanted the Supreme Court to remain conservative, or to deter illegal immigration, or to preserve their gun rights, etc … Sadly though, about 65% of them voted for Trump simply because they think he is a “fighter.” They like that he is uncouth, says whatever comes to his mind, is wildly unfaithful to Melania, and is not afraid to ruffle feathers. However, when you attempt to pull off a coup because you are not man enough to shake hands and congratulate a fellow competitor and then follow it up with wild antics such as threatening the life of America’s highest ranking armed services member, … that is pure and simple, … batshit crazy. If my great uncle who fought in WW2 and was a Republican his entire life until he passed in 2011 were alive, he would be enraged. Trump represents almost none of the qualities of the traditional Republican voter from the 1940s to about 2010. Respect for the family, limited government, work ethic, faith in God, faithfulness to your spouse, maintaining a strong military, strict on crime, modesty, remaining humble, etc …. You can be sure that should Trump win in 2024, it will be nothing but four years of revenge politics that do nothing to move our nation forward. Consider what is in your mind, … what is in your heart, …. this guy (Trump) is a fundamentally bad person. He is nothing like the honorable candidates of John McCain or Mitt Romney. Consider Trump’s demeanor and how much hate fills this guy (when does a day go by that he is not raging on social media?). Don’t believe me?, … listen to General Milley, … the guy is a lifelong Republican.

Everyday, … All Day, … until the Illegal War of Aggression Ends – I am a supporter of Ukraine and their right to remain independent of Russia and Putin’s kleptocracy. In a world where leaders are truly held accountable, Putin would be brought before the ICC and found guilty of waging an illegal war and crimes against humanity. Let’s all stand with Ukraine to repel Putin’s illegal invasion and attempt at mass destruction.
