Star Power

(With the notable exception of Ronald Reagan, of course.  Having witnessed a minute here and there of this year's lowest-rated and pedestrian Oscars fiasco, we fail to see anybody cut from future presidential material in attendance. No shortage of crybabies and leftist whiners, however.)

Bits and Pieces for April 2021

Note to (primarily) black people insistent upon attacking those of innocent Asian heritage in the streets without cause:  Wouldn't your nefarious "talents" be put to better use by instead attacking black people who kill other black people? BLM (black lives marauding) isn't looking too good here.

Get'cher millions here:  Nobody cares that far more white perpetrators are shot dead by police every year than black criminals.  Nevertheless, we suspect a new phenomenon will arise which we already witness: The Big Payoff of millions of dollars to families of shot-dead criminals by cities and towns already strapped for cash.  Isn't it interesting how attorneys such as Crump seem to show up magically when shootings occur?  Far be it from me to pretend what goes on in the heads of lawyers and grieving families of the shot-dead criminal record element, but I think we're just beginning to see a pattern of multi-million dollar payoffs / reparations to the grieving kin whose sobbing and tears shed over thug/punk daddy, mommy or sibling can only be alleviated by a cash avalanche.

It seemed a bit incredible after the shooting death of Andrew Brown in North Carolina last week that activists were all too quick to point out that this convicted felon was unarmed.  Oh, was he?  We suggest that the car in which he allegedly attempted to flee police was itself a weapon, capable of injuring or killing many as this drug perp attempted a fast get-away. We now await Brown's family, so proud of daddy and supposedly his rep, to sue local government into near-oblivion.

Every one of these police incidents seem to involve obvious wrongdoing on the "perp-victim" side as cops attempt an arrest, but the left insists upon overlooking this, demanding instead radical police "reform."  

Who's out there thanking the cops for shooting knife-wielding Ma'Khia Bryant dead just before she stabbed a female to death?  Nobody.  Why aren't the people whose lives were obviously saved by the magnificent straight-shooting officer right up front before the media, lavishing praise upon the cop who literally saved their ass?  Not going to happen, of course not.

How interesting that Biden's press hack, Jen Psaki immediately conjured police violence in the country instead of addressing the Bryant incident specifically when asked about it.

How much more of America can these political serpents slither through without causing irrevocable damage to common sense?

Biden addresses the nation:  Oh boy.  This is going to be even worse than sitting through the Oscars, which haven't occurred yet as I write this (and I'll only watch the part where they honor dead people, just to discover whether any of my deserved favorites make the list).  I think that every time Biden opens his mouth and states a radical accomplishment, TV screens should flash the words,"Courtesy of Obama, who never left."  Or maybe the words should read, "Goodbye, middle class."

Meanwhile, down at the border:  Frankly, the Southern border now reaches all the way north, as illegal aliens (I'm sorry, I meant to say criminals) invade the country without limits, bringing diseases, illiteracy, intolerable numbers and immense costs to taxpayers.  I'm no psychic, which might be an advantage over acting as a government official these days, but looking ahead one can imagine a dramatic rise in crime across the nation as illegal (that's still criminal in my mind, Jack.. .) aliens with no jobs, citizenship or hope turn to violence, the drug trade and murder for hire.  You know, so they can provide for their families.  Their children.

Your babies aren't cute anymore.  There, I said it again.  How many years have I said it?

What to do?  Go buy guns and (scarce) ammo now in case our national, overextended welcome mat can't handle the Biden syndicate's national suicide tour compassion.

Trump's policies sure look good today.  Anybody remember Trump?

Victims in Blue

If I'm expected to shed a bucketful of tears for a dead 13-year-old Chicago boy named Adam Toledo, as tabloid TV "news" shows post cutesy-poo photos of his pre-deceased countenance, that's not going to happen.  I do, however, grieve for the police officer who had little choice but to take that extra horrible step in a dark night place, instantly blowing Toledo's parental-failure, gun-toting ass to the cosmos.  Why cry about it?  There are plenty more to take his place, far younger and surely much older.

Your babies aren't cute anymore.

Toledo, perhaps with the assistance of the 21-year-old "friend" accompanying him on that fateful night, and with just maybe a noggin full of gang influence, shed his image as an innocent child when he entered or was dragged into the dark side.  We are ever so frustrated when family members of deceased wrongdoers inevitably step before the TV cameras to sob and tell us what a good boy their dead son, brother, cousin or nephew was before the mean, mean policeman blew him away for no reason other than being a racist.  13?  It appears, as never before, that age IS just a number.

We tire of this bull crap, and we fear it, too, because a significant portion of this country is apparently inhabited by ignorant, vicious mobs willing to organize at a moment's notice to riot, burn, harm, kill and destroy when anybody not considered white screws around with cops and generally gets what he or she deserves in the end.

Statistics, if memory recalls, indicate that nearly twice as many white folk were killed in the line of duty by police last year as colored people (again, before you correct me repeat to yourself what NAACP stands for).

Maxine Waters, meanwhile, is out there fomenting "confrontational" street engagements by the mobs. What a credit to her congressional office and her race, destined to be a hero to her people for all time.  Whomever her people are.  Combine her brain power with that of the similarly outspoken law enforcement expert and fading singer Madonna over the weekend and the tiniest thimbles of the country at last have something with which to be filled at least partially.

I'm deeply sorry that a Chicago cop was forced to do his job and take down forever a young thug whose age will forever scar that officer's mind. Unfortunately, there's a war internally, and as much as I would prefer to find some way to blast Chinese communists to hell and force Putin to make himself a polonium sandwich (bless you and thank you Mr. Navalny -- Russia's suffering class might have been so much better off with your influence), right now I'm all for giving cops the respect they deserve again and providing them all the weapons and power they need to clean up humano-toxic cities.

Hey Chicago (etc., etc.), you want to take this "child execution" to the ultimate step?  Find the person who made the 9-1-1 call complaining about gunshots, necessitating visits by the police, and arrest that caller!  It's their fault that any of this started, obviously. Hold the caller responsible for Toledo's demise.

The leftist radical bunch would have us believe that our police officers equate with Nazi storm troopers, but obviously they do not.  But what of a female office in Minnesota who accidentally shot and killed a young black man?  I'd be nervous too, considering his gun warrant.  Yes, she messed up badly, but for the first time in modern history every cop in every town and city across the country is faced with extraordinary emotional stress every day, wondering if the next day might be their last, forced to confront a generation of the most stupid, violent, unrestrained and undisciplined young people ever encountered domestically.  

In a nut shell, men and women who should never have produced children at all had a good time in the sack but produced an assembly line of youth raised with no standards at all.  And for many, gangs are their nannies.

So what do you do when a police officer grabs the gun instead of the taser?  Easy -- get rid of the tasers, those troublesome devices that add one more piece of sh** to constrain officers with belts filled with things city councils determined they Must Carry.  How about this -- let cops carry guns, nightsticks and cameras.  Forget the medical kits they "must" carry on their persons to save drug abuse consumers.  You drugged up, dude or ma'am?  Your choice and death ride together.

Which reminds me of a new scientific study (I haven't read this in depth yet) claiming that human penises are "shrinking."  Hmm.  Good.  Now maybe nature will do something for the ladies in the name of equality and leftist "equity."

By the time you read this, the George Floyd death trial jury will be in deliberation, or maybe they'll finish up in ten minutes.  Whatever happens, be assured that the leftist-prompted street trash who exist on welfare, drugs and hate and give absolutely nothing back to the country will be out there setting fires, aiming makeshift or well-organized weaponry at cops, and probably looting stores which will ultimately have no choice but to go out of business as insurance companies refuse to insure their potential reincarnations.

Don't look to the Biden syndicate.  They're too busy still blaming Trump, flooding the border utilizing their criminal incompetence & intent, and attempting to make us believe the Paris Climate Accord is our new God -- and among all of that the Biden folk still have time to reinitiate the Democrat/Obama practice of kissing Iran's ass.

But for the moment, the thin blue line in every community stands in jeopardy due to leftists and lunatics with legislative power.  Anybody in any position of authority clamoring to de-fund the police, weaken their authority or insist upon some crackpot idea of having weapon-less cops or mental health workers rush to crime scenes to converse with perps -- with no hint of firepower bargaining availability -- is a fool.

WOKE's Holy Trinity

Just as cinema zombies crave human brains for sustenance (or just for kicks), we must desire functioning, intellectually traditional brains for the United States.  As a society we've become complacent and unmoved about our rapidly declining place in the world, so much, in fact, that powerful forces once beyond concern now threaten to manipulate our daily lives with no apologies.

Yes, one can look upon an obviously long-conjured and now in effect Democrat-initiated, six-month "study" on "reforming" the Supreme Court, a blatant attempt to stack the Court in favor of the left.

But there's so much more at play.  Consider the  state of religion, especially the Judeo-Christian principles responsible for the nation's founding (whether native peoples should have killed everybody setting foot on the continent and been done with it back then is a matter to be argued elsewhere).  The left and its well-established Marxist element have waited for years to make itself the new religion for the masses, and indeed we witness "The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost"  being methodically replaced by The Government, The Multi-National Corporations and the Unions.

Welcome to the new Holy Trinity.  

The Great Reset is not fiction.  Is American capitalism and competition working for the individual facing dinosaur status?

The possibility of a hot war with China in the near term is likewise not fiction.

That a vast majority of the Biden syndicate's so-called infrastructure plan has absolutely nothing to do with roads and bridges, but instead goes to social(ist) programs speaks volumes.

100 or so major corporations and financial institutions, names we all know, pooled their resources and reportedly held a Zoom session a few days ago, plotting and planning against election reforms accomplished by or planned for states with Republican leadership.  Or to be more clear -- the Great Reset corporate/donor partners, in what seems the ultimate collusion with unions and leftist government elements, want to take decisions out of our hands and claim eminent domain for stripping us of our American (and, yes, God-given) rights.  States have every responsibility to organize fair elections, and that was reflected in Georgia and other states, despite what these mega-monster entities try to do by hook or by crook.

How long will it take before we resemble Venezuela?  I don't know -- but be sure to look northward to our friend, Canada, whose officials have now gone on a church-closing spree, arresting a pastor AND journalists attempting to cover the story. Stay in touch with Canada's Rebel News to read about a lifestyle rotting from the inside out, thanks in so small part to Trudeau, who should probably have a prison named after him as he becomes its first inmate.

Here in the states, Biden already took taxpayer money to pay off union debts and troubled pensions, and gave the usual gun control speech with Executive actions (they aren't confiscating guns, but just try to find currently scarce ammo at reasonable prices).

Unfortunately, the folks who pay little attention today to the slow drift toward fascism in their country will definitely sit up and take notice once the dollar is nearly worthless and bank savings are converted into digital currency whose value is determined by sources unwilling to argue with depositors.

Minneapolis Follies:  Cops trying to control the clueless, idiotic, but nonetheless violent inhabitants crawling and slithering about in major U.S. cities are surely stressed and at the end of their wits.  Maybe police administrators need to say politically correct things after the latest shooting death, but I don't, and here's my view:  So, a young man is shot dead by a veteran police officer who reportedly believed she was firing her taser, not a service weapon.  Oops.  Well, here's what:  When are these fools going to learn that running from the cops and refusing orders to halt simply amps up confusion and may result in something hazardous to their health, whether by intent or accident?  Daunte Wright?  Daunte wrong. Was there not a weapons (gun) warrant out for him? Did he not have a history of violence? Did he not resist arrest before attempting to flee (and perhaps the officer thought he could be reaching for a weapon)?  OF COURSE activist TV network news shows presented a cluster of angelic-appearing photos of Daunte Wright from earlier times.  Woo-hoo -- just wait until the civil court doles out mega-millions of compensation/"reparations" for this tragic loss to humanity.  Yes, this officer's error was a tragedy, but since everything now is race-based, we ask:  Had a white perp been shot dead, would anybody care?  Or would the civil court system pay more than a memory contribution?  As we said, everything is race now, and if it doesn't stop nothing will matter.

Regarding the inevitable roach cluster which materialized in the streets almost immediately after the fatal shot was fired -- yep, many were so consumed with a need for social justice and pity for the fallen perp that their rage and sorrow could only be alleviated by looting stores and bouncing objects off cops' heads.  I stand by past statements:  When mobs take to the streets and initiate violence against people or property, what can't be clubbed in the head should just be shot dead by law enforcement personnel.  It won't take too many. This nonsense and wildness against police dedicated to public safety has to stop, and respect for law certainly isn't being taught in the homes of dangerous human insects who have absolutely no interest in educating or bettering themselves or their neighborhoods.  Yes, unintended police shootings are terrible, but when one considers the level of stress police officers endure every day and night now at the hands of social justice warriors, hopeful cop killers and Internet-and cell phone-inspired clusters of maniacs, just what level of official street etiquette should we expect when incidents explode?  And a side note:  What the hell level of communist wannabees get elected to city councils with goals of destroying law enforcement?  When residents who obviously don't even know in many cases who they are voting for give these sucking louses power, that's a monumental reason why city neighborhoods deteriorate.

Cox Rox, Not Tox, Yet Sent to Hox Box Using Neither Dox nor Pox (De Void Goes -30-. . .But is That Really a Wrap, Bro?)

 

Have we read the last from newspaper reporter Billy Cox's De Void blog?  My link list is about to become one entry short, unfortunately.

By way of a Billy Cox alert passed through Internet sources, initially via researcher Grant Cameron's web site, we're told that a corporate decision -- not blog content -- sentenced De Void to said termination.  I could blubber on and on all day about this tremendous loss to, shall we say, UFO journalism (and I have always held a special place in my nevertheless wandering heart for newspaper reporters, the vanishing printing press breed who won't obscure truth behind sound bites or seconds-long brevity quenched by microphone & camera), but I'll shut up and take the liberty here of including in total the words of Billy Cox and my/our thanks for his superior UFO reportage.  Will he return in another format?  Don't count him out.  Yet this, writes Billy:


Since a few of you have asked (3), yes, it’s official – Gannett killed my UFO blog, De Void, yesterday. I knew it was coming a week or two ago, but I’d asked an editor at the Herald-Tribune in Sarasota if he could keep the hounds at bay until Monday. He said yes. By time I tried to log on Friday afternoon to write a bon voyage piece, it was already too late, the site had been permanently disabled. Sorry – be quicker next time.

Before anybody goes QAnon, it had nothing to do with content, although that would’ve been a more preferable motive. The futurists at Gannett – the biggest newspaper chain in America – decided De Void wasn’t “performing” well enough. The purge from on high was billed as part of an across-the-board hose-down of all blogs and other initiatives that weren’t generating the metrics they wanted. There was no discussion, only the relayed word that Gannett had identified “Readability” in the SEO analytics as the problem.

OK, I’m not that vain. De Void was no great shakes. A lot of it was repetitive and florid with self-pity, and my “Readability” scores were pretty shitty. Here’s the readout on one blog alone: There were “3 consecutive sentences starting with the same word.” There were not “any subheadings.” There were more than 20 words in 39.7% of my sentences, which is “more than the recommended maximum of 25%. Try to shorten the sentences.”

Days earlier, I attended a mandatory company Zoomer about our marching orders going forward, so I knew where I’d fallen short. Wheezing red mist under a crush of a billion $ in debt, and with 99 percent of all ad revenues sucked up by Google and Facebook, Gannett is hitching its fortunes to digital subscriptions. But Stone Age laptop users alone won’t be enough to survive. The key is getting device-users to buy in. Which means trying to seduce smartphone attention spans into staying with a story for the length of a stoplight.

The key phrases were “scannability,” “infogram,” “digestible and mobile friendly,” and “meets them in places they look for news.” Don’t forget the “why it matters” nut graph. Or “bullet points.” And “how does it impact me?” All of which makes perfect sense. Like, when was the last time you were impacted by a UFO?

Anyway, my farewell De Void was going to be about why, as the only daily newspaper reporter in the United States blogging about UFOs since 2007, I was/still am optimistic over the future of media coverage. Between the phenomenon’s sprawling scope, the early stages of government accountability, and a sustained surge of public interest following the Defense Department’s release of those F-18 videos three years ago, a competitive growth industry has barely even gotten started. There’s more, but this is already way too long.

So. To those in pursuit – two words to the wise: shorter sentences.


The not-surprising Southern border blitz:  The very fact that under international law  Mexico was supposed to be the first country to deal with migrants makes this leftist and drug cartel-engineered exercise in invasion of the USA a border war like few others.  Some cartel members are allegedly making several million dollars a day by sling-shooting children and adults into the country via high-tech or simply overwhelming operations.  How long is the average American going to ignore the real threats while immersed instead in stupid video games, in televised athletic events mastered by a clash of self-serving egos or in marijuana legislation guaranteed to make us an even dumber society?

Taking the rectal temperature in corporate boardrooms:  These folks are increasingly becoming infected with the WOKE virus, all of which is orchestrated by domestic and global thought terrorists, denizens of elite think tanks and social(ist) network punks bathed in too much privilege and an abundance of idle time on their hands.  So, in light of MLB baseball suddenly leaving Atlanta, and in light of Coca-Cola, Delta, Dell and other major corporations cowing to the WOKE cult, may we suggest that you folks just continue selling your damned products and leave phony social tantrums behind?  Regarding Georgia's new voting law, it appears that some corporate officials are unable to come up with a single reason why the new legal standards are unfair to "minorities."  But the mainstream media will never belly up to the truth bar on this issue.  And again:  "Jim  Crow" legislation of the past was the Democrats' baby, despite leftist lies.  To throw Jim Crow to the wall of public opinion now and hope it sticks is so typical of this bunch.

Noah X and why are the streets quiet?  Capitol (alleged, my butt) cop-killer Noah Green, dispatched to a well-deserved dirt nap by the courage of law enforcement, apparently having a preference for his Nation of Islam name, Noah X, was of course almost immediately removed from Facebook even as his family was prepared to moan, true enough I guess, the mental illness chant.  While X's use of both an automobile and a knife to perpetrate his horrors for some reason did not cause car and knife-control advocates to march in neighborhood communities across the land, we did raise an eyebrow or two when it became strangely obvious that streets were quiet, period.  That is, when George Floyd or other colored people (ref. NAACP spelled out, language geeks, don't blame me ) have succumbed at the hands of law enforcement in recent years, mobs routinely took to the streets, setting fires, burning cars and breaking windows and other inanimate objects -- um, yeah, sometimes people, too -- in "protest" while usually enduring the side benefit curse of a necessity to steal TVs, electronics and other goodies.

Yet, if we're going to stay racial 24/7, I must admit, it was rather amazing that this black-perpetrator-on-white-cop table-turning crime did not lead to gangs of white folk hitting city streets and going on an immature destructive or free TV-grabbing tour.  Where was the white rage?  Surely, Americans NOT of Col-Or have the same right as the street rats and thugs to demolish the taxpayer-funded public square, or to shoot, pistol-whip or destroy by any means necessary cops, business owners and shops obstructing their pathway to violent juvenile or infantile-level reactions.  

Good grief, you white folk trash, how dare you quietly sit back and let American justice take its course without a display of idiotic physical and criminal input?  This country is clearly going to hell in a hand basket (um, is hand basket a racist term?).

The President:  Pardon my confusion, but I've seen his few speeches and I've watched him fall on airplane steps, so I can't resist asking:  When the press states this President has been "briefed" on something, do they mean briefed. . .or Pampered?  Hmm.

Tax us some more:  The Biden syndicate continues to come up with big ideas funded by future you and I.  If taxes are raised on corporations to help pay for an extraordinarily socialist agenda, corps will pass the increase on to the consumer.  If Biden taxes the bejeezus out of the wealthy, the wealthy will find a way to escape this madness.  To basically put a "hate tax" on businesses innocently engaged in American capitalism values puts the country on a collision course with disaster, as defined by our given rights.  I am especially disturbed by -- more than once -- hearing Biden's minions talk about good-paying UNION jobs.  Not just jobs.  Because the previous multi-trillion bill already saved union pension funds (for now), it's only natural that declining unions would be clawing in the background, demanding that paid-off politicians exert influence to reinvigorate their almost ghostly carcasses.  Biden's so-called "infrastructure" proposal, if passed, will insure a unionized grip on American workers and the people they used to serve when the country enjoyed more than a modicum of freedom in a free market society.  In any case, it is essential to bear in mind that when Democrats speak of unity, unity is THEIR personal "dog whistle" warning of a commitment primarily and overwhelmingly to leftist goals.  There just isn't much room for real compromise among Democrats and true conservatives (if one can actually find the latter in numbers of any consequence).
