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!

December 17th, 2024 – New York judge Juan Merchant has denied Trump’s attempt to have his criminal convictions tossed:
https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/16/politics/trump-immunity-hush-money-conviction-merchan/index.html
Trump is, … the, … prime example of someone so wealthy, he can continually file appeals for every manner of frivolous until finally some court that agrees with his policies decides to hear his case. I have no doubt that ten years from now, unless he can overturn it sooner, he will still be filing appeals. Trump, … who lived in NYC for 76 of his 78 years, … was found guilty by a jury of his NYC peers for 30 felonies committed for actions that took place before he became president in 2016. Where does he belong, … certainly not in the White House. He should be sentenced by Judge Merchant to roughly 1.5 years in prison and start his second administration from there. Even better, … perhaps he can be housed with a large African-American man who does not like whiny little bitches who have enjoyed privilege their entire lives.
December 14th, 2024 – Some of the largest scientific discoveries of 2024:
December 12th, 2024 – There has been much talk about Luigi Mangione, the suspected killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Like everyone sensible, I do not condone violence and if Luigi is indeed guilty (and the evidence looks pretty overwhelming), I believe his actions are horrific.
That said, there are roughly 36 First World nations across the globe. Every single one of them but the United States has a national health care system (socialized medicine). Almost all of these First World nations recognize that patient care is not something that should be profited from. I think it is also worth pointing out that roughly 73 to 85% of the CEOs and senior executives of major healthcare companies in the U.S. are conservatives who are generally fine with making a profit off someone’s illness, … something I 100% disagree with. For these reasons, I urge all my readers to continue supporting any legislation that works to bring a national health care system into reality.
December 11th, 2024 – Hartmut Neven, the founder and lead of Google’s Quantum AI project says in his blog that the company’s latest quantum processor, Willow, likely computes across many parallel universes:
https://blog.google/technology/research/google-willow-quantum-chip
There are several major “interpretations” of quantum mechanics with two of the most popular being the Copenhagen viewpoint espoused by Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg, and the “Many-Worlds” theory of Hugh Everett. I have always been a big proponent of Many-Worlds because the Copenhagen view requires an “observer” to collapse the wavefunction. In turn, that requires another observer to bring the first observer into existence, creating a nested set of Matryoshka observers. One of the most important principles in science when evaluating competing claims is Ockham’s Razor, … all things being equal, the simplest explanation is usually correct. Everett’s Many-World’s theory does away with all the observers for a far simpler (but tremendously head-scratching) claim that all possible states of the wavefunction (which can be any of an infinite possibility) are equally valid, … or in laymen’s terms, occurring in their own “universe.”
December 8th, 2024 – Bashar al-Assad, the former dictator of Syria has unsurprisingly flown the coop to Moscow:
https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/08/middleeast/assad-wherebouts-russia-syria-regime-intl/index.html
Hope you brought your winter coats Assad, …. Moscow ain’t no Damascus 🙂
December 8th, 2024 – Trump says that he will immediately pardon January 6th rioters on the first day of his new administration:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-most-likely-pardon-capitol-160041028.html
Couldn’t disagree more. Almost every single Trumplican who marched on the Capitol building knew that it was off limits as Congress voted to certify the new Biden administration. You don’t get a pass for breaking windows, assaulting officers, and putting your feet up on desks in various offices you broke into.
December 7th, 2024 – A monthly public service announcement to avoid 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.
December 6th, 2024 – Bashar al-Assad, the dictator of Syria since 2000, has been removed from power by Syrian rebels after more than a decade of fighting:
https://apnews.com/article/syria-assad-sweida-daraa-homs-hts-qatar-7f65823bbf0a7bd331109e8dff419430
Al-Assad and his father, Hafez al-Assad ruled Syria brutally for 54 years and despite the backing of Russia and Iran, could never fully defeat the rebel forces which arose because of Assad’s heavy-handed response to the Arab Spring (he killed roughly 1700 of his own people by using chemical (gas) munitions). I don’t think too many people are going to miss his mismanaged and cruel reign.
December 5th, 2024 – Apparently after almost 40 years, the wearing of salmon hats has come back into fashion for orcas near Puget Sound, Washington (state):
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/for-orcas-dead-salmon-hats-are-back-in-fashion
December 5th, 2024 – Notre Dame cathedral in Paris is reopening after a devastating fire 2019:
https://apnews.com/article/notre-dame-paris-latest-e50813cf016f08607c20ab115bc4b153
November 30th, 2024 – Orcas use inventive techniques to incapacitate the world’s largest fish (the poorly named whale shark):
November 29th, 2024 – Noah is four years old and loves both SpongeBob and popsicles. What is better then than ordering hundreds of SpongeBob popsicles from Amazon when Mom’s back is turned?
https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/4-old-hacks-mom-amazon-182712004.html
November 27th, 2024 – Happy Thanksgiving to my readers! Some people like turkey, ham, and stuffing, …. I prefer a good pepperoni pizza and a few glasses of wine!
November 26th, 2024 – Nine scientific discoveries that resulted from Napoleon’s invasion of Egypt:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/9-scientific-breakthroughs-resulted-napoleons-213705701.html
November 25th, 2024 – A good layman’s article on differential aging:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/inside-body-aging-unfolds-remarkably-143534490.html
November 25th, 2024 – Special Counsel Jack Smith has dropping all federal charges against Trump:
https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/25/politics/trump-special-counsel-jack-smith/index.html
I couldn’t disagree more both with the case as specific to Trump and with the overall legal justification, which is that sitting presidents cannot be charged with a crime. That is a slippery slope that leads to autocracy and bad ends. Any president who receives even a fine for jaywalking, should have to appear in court and answer for it the same as any other citizen. Trump clearly tried to remain in power illegally and his plan consisted of three parts; 1 – Incite a mob of his rabid followers to break into the Capitol and disrupt the voting. 2 – Persuade Mike Pence to have the Electoral College vote thrown into question, and 3 – Form fake slates of electors from the battleground states. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, Trump is guilty and for the crime of attempting a coup, should face life in prison or the hangman’s rope.
November 22nd, 2024 – A close look at a massive star in one of the Milky Way’s companion galaxies (the Large Magellanic Cloud):
https://www.yahoo.com/news/scientists-reveal-humanitys-first-close-130056548.html
November 21st, 2024 – Score one for the good guys: Matt Gaetz has withdrawn his candidacy for Attorney General:
https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/trump-transition-news-11-21-24/index.html
The reason he is supposedly stepping down is that it has come to light that Gaetz had a second sexual union with the same 17-year-old girl that he paid money to previously, … even after realizing that she was underage (he was 35 years old at the time and had a fiance, … and like so many other Trumplicans, claimed to a be a good “Christian”).
Many readers not familiar with the halls of Congress may not know this but for years, Gaetz has shown other members of Congress dick picks of himself or photos of himself having sex, mostly with women under twenty years old (some of whom he apparently paid) while he was roughly 35 to 38 years old to amp up his “alpha male” credentials. Gaetz also has a DUI from 2008 that occurred on Okaloosa Island, FL which was soon totally expunged due to political contacts in Tallahassee and the State Legislature.
The great news is that not only is he stepping down, … but that he also resigned from Congress (it is a parliamentarian question as to whether he will be able to come back to Congress since he publicly resigned). I am sure Trump will try to find someone even more evil and despicable (Art the Clown would probably work well with the upcoming Trump admin) but at least this is a win for the people who didn’t want a pedophile as our nation’s top legal officer. And while my interactions with Federal officials were one of only thousands or tens of thousands, I can happily report that my personal actions were a tiny, tiny bit of the reason this vile person won’t be serving in our government.
November 21st, 2024 – RFK Jr. who has been nominated by Trump to be the Secretary of Health and Human Services (despite having no medical training whatsoever, opposing vaccinations, and in possession of zero managerial experience in any health care setting) called most of Trump’s followers “belligerent idiots” and “Nazi’s” back in 2016:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/2016-rfk-jr-desribed-trump-194816207.html
There are few forms of spinelessness more egregious than those who completely shift positions to gain political power.
Remember though, … Trump only picks the finest! Freedumb, … hell yeah motherf#$%#@ !
November 21st, 2024 – Linda McMahon, the former wife of WWE owner, Vince McMahon and Trump’s pick to head the Dept. of Education is being sued for enabling the sexual abuse of children who worked as “ring boys’ before and after wrestling events:
https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/21/business/linda-mcmahon-abuse-wwe-trump-education/index.html
November 20th, 2024 – National Geographic has released twenty of their best photos of 2024 culled from 2.3 million submissions:
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/photography/graphics/pictures-of-the-year-2024
November 20th, 2024 – Continuing what appears to be one giant middle finger to the people of America, Trump has nominated toady, Linda McMahon, the wife of WWE president, Vince McMahon to be the Secretary of Education, …. a department he would like Linda to close down.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/19/politics/linda-mcmahon-education-secretary-trump/index.html
If readers recall, the previous education secretary under Trump was Betsy DeVos, the daughter and wife of billionaires, and a woman who hated education. At least to her credit, she stepped down after Trump tried to lead the only coup in U.S. history. My suspicion is that Linda will do whatever Trump commands, … no questions asked.
There you have it, …. oil drilling yes, partisanship yes, pedophiles yes, sexual assaulters yes, toadies yes, …. education, …. mehh, … not really a priority.
Here is where a sensible person might point out that many of the countries in the world renowned for their education systems (Finland, Singapore, Denmark, etc ….) all use a standardized approach which covers and tests the same science-based material equally for every student. Of course, … why would we want that, …. this be ‘Merika by God. Oklahoma and Alabama should have lower standards than California and New Hampshire. We don’t need none of that “standards” sh$! here!
Freedumb motherf#$%@#, …. hell yeah!
November 19th, 2024 – Fortunately, hackers have accessed the files behind Matt Gaetz paying for sex with women under age 18 when he was aged 35 years old.
Ya gotta admit, the guy looks like Greg Stillson (check in literature if you don’t know who that is).
I mean, …. who does not want to have a pedophile as the highest legal officer in the entire country? I know I do, …. way to go with that Alpha male behavior Gaetz. You should be congratulated Sir!, …. You would have gotten even more points if she had been 16 or 15, … and even more so if you were able to pay her less than a fifty!
Hopefully, the hackers will release the info to the public in the next few days.
November 19th, 2024 – I was joking around with some friends and we have come up with the perfect poster to represent the future Trump administration:
Nothing speaks to the over the top stupidity of Trump better than Team America. The team even has their own modded vehicles:
November 18th, 2024 – Next up, the man chosen to run the Health and Human Services Department does not believe in vaccination:
Ya know, … that vaccination s#@!, … the same s#@! that has saved over a billion lives during the last two centuries, … but of course, RFK Jr, who has never attended one day of medical school or training in his life (like Joe Rogan) knows better. Getting my popcorn ready for the cluster$#@! 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$#! yeah!
November 15th, 2024 – The FBI says that racist and hate filled messages are now being sent out to Hispanic and LGBTQ people:
Ahh, Trump, …. he and his supporters always working to make the world a warmer and kinder place.
November 13th, 2024 – Muslims, especially in the state of Michigan who gave Trump their votes are disheartened at his pro-Israel cabinet picks:
Hold my beer a minute, ….. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. Here is my message to Muslim supporters of Trump in Michigan, …. you’all dumb as f$#@ !
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:
November 8th, 2024 – Predictions for the next four years under Trump
Starting in January of 2025, Trump will attempt to 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 owe their loyalty 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. Decent human beings like Juan Merchant and Liz Cheney 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, Trump 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 $15. Mass deportations will then quickly stop due to the Republican businessmen who own companies like Foster Farms. If you thought your grocery prices were high before the election conservatives, … let’s see what happens when you deport 1.5 million Hispanics. This should be an interesting dumpster fire.
Trump will claim he is going to finish building the wall at the Mexican border (of which only 47 new miles was actually built from 2020 to 2024, … none of which Mexico paid for)(in truth, 454 miles was built, but roughly 407 miles were reinforcements to wall sections that had already been built). By 2028, only twenty more miles of new wall will actually be finished and Mexico won’t be paying for any of that either.
All the millions of Hispanics who voted for Trump will initially be happy until black vans from ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) start capturing and black bagging people in their neighborhoods. This is the seed that will eventually lead to the domestic suspension of habeas corpus (the domestic equivalent to what the CIA did after 9/11 with black sites in various countries outside the U.S.). In the first year or two, mainly illegal immigrants will be targeted but eventually, ICE will often attempt to capture legal U.S. citizens of Latin American descent for forceable repatriation. All those Hispanic families who thought they wanted Trump as president will very soon be his first victims.
Under Trump’s orders, thousands of private companies will begin drilling for gas and oil in national parks and wildlife refuges. Animals, plants, rare species, …. f$%! 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. He will threaten China, Canada, and Mexico first.
The 40 million people in Ukraine will be overwhelmed by Russia as Trump abandons them to Putin. At the least, Putin will be rewarded as a bully and mass murderer who is allowed to keep the 19% of Ukrainian territory he has illegally seized so far. 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, 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:

Important Past Posts – On May 1st, 2024, my first novel, The Song of Kiri was finally published and will soon be available on Amazon
I am hopeful that this book will present many interesting paradigm shifts to currently held scientific viewpoints.

I hope my readers enjoy!

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.
