Bits and Pieces for January 2020

The "Tic Tac" UFO video(s):  Interesting to know early on not only that more than one military-accomplished video of this particular incident exists, but that the U.S. government has no intention of releasing a second publicly.  As usual, explanations are absent, but we can wonder whether (1) additional military observation equipment itself is classified and likely to be enemy-compromised by going public with another video or (2) additional video and/or technological evidence the unidentified aerial object provided during the incident provides exceptional clarity or clues regarding its source or structure or (3) this particular object relates to a highly classified domestic or foreign military project {ha, as if. . .} or (4) in a society already crazy enough, government does not want to inflame the situation further by letting on how little control we really have over "things" which freely come and go to pique or assault our senses and confound our so-called high tech inventions.  As planetary citizens of the universe, maybe in relation to other space or inter-dimensional entities we just suck and government officials prefer not to dwell on this proclivity.

Black History Month:  Oh Je-e-e-e-e-e-zuz, here it comes, perennially ready to devour February and force-feed non-black folk portions of guilt walking hand-in-hand with hatred.  Even a fair share of (can barely tolerate this designation) African-Americans wish this fairly recent societal aberration would go away because it has served its originally well-intended purpose to the point of ad nauseam.  Here's an idea:  Maybe start teaching civics classes in high schools and colleges again and include all the good things about black history and white history and every other color and variety of history in America,  Could be some people will learn not to hate everything about the country, once deliberately excluded facts about the good parts are brought back into play.  But stop holding every precious day of February hostage, please.

Virginia's white black face freak governor and his legislative accomplices apparently celebrate in their own way, hoping to place further restrictions on the Second Amendment.  Will the peaceful appearance of thousands of Virginia's gun owners make a difference to progressives intent upon changing the country to their socialist whim?  Good luck.

Divisive.  Diversity.  Two words, so different.  Or are they?

All the gold that glitters:  How charming of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to hand out gold pens upon subdued yet frenzied signing of Trump's impeachment orders for the Senate.  Were these one-time-only pens produced in China, or instruments of quality equipped to accept refills so that Democrat House members can continue to feel the love for years to come?  I'm pretty sure they weren't stick pens bought at the dollar store, but one never knows when cheap affairs disguised as elegant ballroom activities occur in Washington.

Mutating a gecko into Godzilla is what the Democrats do best, per the House's impeachment infection now infecting the U.S. Senate.  When this current leftist foolishness hoping to set a bear trap for Trump melts into failure, Dems will be one month closer to trying to explain to constituents why they should be re-elected based upon little to nothing of substance.  We wish the Joe and Hunter Biden story would be explored in the Senate, as this evolving story appears to serve up the epitome of corruption.

New York, New York:  Somebody should apologize for the national excrescence of Schumer, Nadler, Jeffries and other clowns as they join with California demons Schiff and Pelosi to waste taxpayer money and time in this pathetic Trump hijack attempt.  Yet, as pathetically as this crew demonstrates its abilities every day, NY hosts an entity at least as annoying:  Megalomaniac governor Andrew Cuomo.

Having already publicly announced that the state has no room for some conservatives, this progressive (read as socialist) hack continues to tout nebulous accomplishments in the state -- as people persist in escaping in droves every year.  Already six billion dollars in debt with at least a couple billion more on the way in 2020, the best this fool can suggest as overly generous NY Medicaid benefits continue to destroy fiscal stability is to suggest taxing people's health insurance!  Additionally, Cuomo hopes to have legalized marijuana in the state so he can tax the daylights out of that as well.  Having already attempted to ban vaping components in NY and fretting publicly over health concerns, how incredible that Cuomo would push marijuana on New Yorkers, knowing what science knows about the toxins associated with its usage.

Oh, but just mention "ghost guns" which shoot real deadly bullets instead of marijuana toxins and Cuomo becomes inconsolable.  Yes, homemade guns with no serial numbers.  So whadaya think you're going to do about it?  They're here, and they will only become more popular among the killer class harboring no wish to be apprehended and imprisoned

Meanwhile, Cuomo travels to Puerto Rico and frets over what New York can do for PR, when doing something is clearly a federal issue.  We would never suppose, of course, that Andrew Cuomo has taken the best interests of the Puerto Rican people to heart particularly because so many of PR's residents -- e.g. voters --currently reside in NY following territorial disaster.

Environmentalist Cuomo, on the other hand -- or do we mean hat? -- embraces solar panels and wind turbines, with nary a word about what eventually obsolete or damaged equipment will do to landfills and enviro quality.  And not a word about the millions of birds executed by solar and wind instrumentation every day.  We wonder whether 16-year-old Swedish wunderkind Greta "Oona Goosepimple" Thunberg would approve?  How about Cuomo's aspirations for "high speed rail" in NY, cutting a swath through just about everything ecologically important?

There are megalomaniacs and there are hypocrites and there are leaders who deceive by insisting that the citizenry-affected actions they take behind closed doors without encouraging public discussion in advance are best.  New York is blessed with Cuomo, his complicit legislature and bags of NY corruption to encompass all of this, and none of it reflects the country in which we grew up once upon a time.
