Jack On, Jack Off: The Naughty Airman

Jack Teixeira? 21 years old, nice-looking kid, with photos in his Air Force uniform which make him appear almost angelic.  I wish I looked half as good when I wore the USAF uniform long ago.  THIS is the guy Bud Light should have bottled and canned commercially, instead of the incomprehensible human cartoon character abomination currently pissing off beer drinkers from coast to coast.  No military garb for that one, dude.

As we mentioned before -- teenage brain, not developed until about age 26, according to some mental health professionals and/or crazy luminaries.

I confess, I don't know anybody with an x in their name.  Yes, the x here has Spanish origins, but I'm usually reminded of an ancient Aztec mummy or something when I see an x in a name.  Well, maybe not when it's somebody like motion picture actor-of-old Francis X. Bushman, and certainly not the spaceman Exeter in the fifties movie, This Island Earth. The x isn't among most folks' daily name encounters in the USA.

Well, kid in blue, you sure did it up big time.  What were you thinking?  Was it worth it to be top dog in the Internet gaming kennel?

We old folk are woefully out of tune with the younger generation.  These people are different, built bone by bone and nerve synapse by synapse with digital input and blue screen mesmerism.  To them, we elders are hoary remnants of a forgotten past, doomed to spin our wheels as we sink among ancient relics of the 1940s, fifties, sixties and maybe even the seventies.  The young are not altogether wrong on this point.

Bu'cha can't be releasing classified information to your friends under the best or worst of circumstances.

One problem is, Teixeira happens to be an airman attached to government regulations at exactly the same time the people of the United States suffer under what has evidenced itself almost overnight as perhaps the most incompetent and corrupt presidential administration in our history, lying to and willfully withholding information from the public which has a right to know certain things.  Unconstitutional Executive Orders fly out of this White House like locusts hungry to decimate vast farm fields of truth, while crops of authoritarian weeds flourish in their place.

So, thanks to Airman Jack we now know there were at least four more Chinese balloons vacuuming up vast amounts of sensitive ground data around the globe.  And the amounts of money we're spending in Ukraine has the potential to cripple us perhaps more than we on the "outside" imagined.  Which reminds us, why couldn't Putin be languishing in a Russian prison, dying of his own poisonous concoctions, instead of rival Alexei Navalny who may well have made Russia a wondrous nation worthy of international respect?

Airman Jack is apparently far more crafty and intelligent than many of his superiors, and that's the sharp instrument currently stuck in their craw.  How did a low-level blue-suit have access to highly classified data regarding in large measure the Biden gang's monumental failures?  Maybe a few more horses will leave the barn before the storm door shuts.

My oh my, how easy it is to dump on a low-level airman, while nobody seems able to determine who leaked information from the Supreme Court prior to the takedown of a major abortion decision.  Weren't there basically 12 suspects, each attired similarly, when the Roe v. Wade leak hit the media streets?  What else is going on here?

Teixeira's info leaks "embarrassed" the Pentagon, we are told.  Does that mean like in some kind of War Games movie scenario, except in this case the oopsie bomb falls strictly upon the brass?

Airman Teixeira respects his country, loves God and guns, embraces Christianity and in all respects -- well, except for, um. . . -- seems the all-American boy.  He wasn't selling top secret information for financial gain, he wasn't trading anything to a foreign power, nor was he receiving cash or sex from some spy.  In his mind, if we can believe what we have been told to date, Teixeira's goal was to impress his friends, and the act of attempting to put one's self above the rest seems to be what was in play here, accomplished by the no-no of imparting secrets.  Stupid, yes, and there's plenty of that to go around these days.

Democrats must be particularly seething, especially because his revelations hang this bunch of bums in the White House (and their intelligence failures) out to dry in the sunlight.  Did informants or others lose their lives, or now face serious jeopardy because of the leaks?  Quite possibly, and that needs to be addressed.  Wars are nasty business all around.

But 15 years in prison for this young man under the military code?  Nah. This is very much a matter involving a lack of common sense, and common sense is often the sense which grows slowest among the young. Spank him, demote him for a while, exert hard probation -- and then give him an appropriate job in military intelligence comparable to his apparently impressive skills and level of brain power.  What are a few years in prison going to accomplish, when criminal intent appears absent?

And if anybody, to quote horse talk, is chomping at the bit to start throwing out words such as TREASON or SEDITION here, please direct them to a place where they may actually apply, and that location is way far south of Massachusetts, known for beautiful cherry blossoms and other things not quite as pretty.

Apprehended!

Success!  An arrested 21 year old Massachusetts Air National Guardsman is allegedly the culprit who circulated classified government documents on the Internet.  A game player! Well, the video game is everything, you know?  Wait a minute -- if the teenage brain isn't fully developed until age 26, who's to blame?

I had my problems with ANG airmen during USAF basic training.  Some of them came from influential families and would taunt regular four-year guys about us going to Vietnam while they'll be living a normal life back at home once basic was over.  But it's a whole new era!
 

To our surprise, here's part of a transcript of what is alleged to be from the airman's interrogation this very day, received from a confidential source:



INTERROGATOR:  "You're in serious trouble, airman."

AIRMAN:  "Yes sir."

INT:  "I'm going to ask you some very important questions.  First -- are you aware that a man can get pregnant?"

AIRMAN:  "Yes sir, they taught me that during basic training."

INT:  "Can a man change his identity immediately and say that he is a woman, capable of participating in female sports?"

AIRMAN:  "Yes sir."

INT:  "Can a man who believes himself a woman menstruate?"

AIRMAN:  "Yes sir, we have tampon dispensers in all bathrooms on base."

INT:  "Did you distribute classified documents on the Internet?"

AIRMAN:  "Yes sir."

INT:  "Did you distribute them to any people who entered the United States illegally and might benefit if we sign them up for President Biden's free health care, food, education and housing rights?  If so, what are their names?"

AIRMAN:  "No, and I don't know of any illegal aliens."

INT:  "Just one more question:  Under penalty of severe punishment by the United States government, would you be willing to change your gender and travel with the U.S. Air Force as a woman in the name of diversity, equity and inclusiveness?"

AIRMAN:  "I. . .I. . ."

INT:  "You'll travel the world, extolling the virtues of the Biden administration, helping to convince our former allies that we support and honor them, even as they continue to turn against us one by one."

AIRMAN:  "I. . .guess I could do that."

INT:  "Of course, this doesn't lessen the gravity of the charges against you, should you fail to live up to our agreement.  By the way, have you or your family members ever done any business with China or Ukraine that gained any of you millions of dollars in return that may be politically troublesome in the future?"

AIRMAN:  "Um, no."

___________ TRANSCRIPT ENDS HERE______________

Bits and Pieces for April 2023

Draft Pushback:  Regarding the previous post promising a new military draft, and I received comments, I do hope I'm wrong, but I make no apologies for blaming primarily Democrats for our current international dilemma.  Some of you were offended, and that's fine, but it should be for the right reasons.  Truth is, the Biden bunch totally screwed Afghanistan and now blames Trump for what they had eight months to do the right way and didn't -- resulting not only in thousands of deaths (including 13 American military personnel all at one time during a chaotic episode), but stupidly leaving behind (according to recent estimates) 175 billion dollars of equipment and weapons, much of it very high-tech and now in the hands of China and Russia.  Giving up an essential air base was more icing on this sour cake.

In just two years this administration of White House and congressional idiots, utopian dreamers, fellow dolts and fools, with major involvement and input by the lunatic left green cult, have chopped, drilled and bullied the superpower status of the United States into slices of utter weakness and indecision regarding foreign policy, while simultaneously working to destroy American culture, energy and social norms.  If you think it was wise for Biden to dramatically deplete petroleum from our Strategic Oil Reserve in order to look like some kind of hero intent upon lowering national gasoline prices, you have a problem.  None of this was lost upon our international enemies and last week's decision by the Saudis and Russia to lower oil output was not merely a coincidence.  In mere months Biden has either made enemies of former allies important to us or given those barely hanging on the cold shoulder.

When we have another 9/11 in the USA, just remember what administration opened the borders to terrorist crossings and murderous drugs.  Drugs?  To be bitterly honest, let's put it this way:  Putin destroys his enemies with polonium; Biden paved the way to kill fellow Americans with fentanyl and a host of newer concoctions simply by doing nothing.  Once upon a time, some guy named Trump was successfully building a wall and helping keep world conflict in check at the same time. Or was that just a dream preceding a nightmare?  Oh yes, I see a renewed military draft in our future because the world is on fire and this administration will be directly culpable for its fine-tuning.  Good luck explaining this to your draft-age children, if you can even get a spare moment with them when they aren't attending sensitivity training or pondering their gender with the kind assistance of some lunatic college professor.

Nobody of a rational mind desires a military draft.  Unfortunately, few rational minds are currently in charge, and some of you unknowingly voted for the situation in which we were quickly immersed.  The inevitability of a draft is becoming crystallized, unless intervened by an unseen solution or miracle.

From the Weird File:  I mentioned him a few years ago, one of my college professors who was NOT a lunatic, and in fact the three classes I took with (now deceased) English professor David Feldman in the early 1970s helped polish my writing and approach to journalism.  Here's the strange part:  Of late I've been sorting through old boxes of "stuff" I packed away in the seventies, some of it from my four Air Force years.  Among these questionable treasures were a few things I wrote during off-duty hours at Air Force bases just to pass the time.  One spiral notebook's pages were filled from beginning to end with my scribbled handwriting which related a fiction story about a vampire (another relic from my past deserved of the shredder -- don't we all have those around the house?).

The cover of my notebook-engulfing scrawl was clearly dated 1969, and the story would have been put to pen and paper while I served at what was then the Air Force's fifth largest hospital (Texas).  Thumbing through yellowing pages, I happened upon an occasional character's name, but there were only a few to be found.  Suddenly, I was struck by a major character's name, and until now I had never given this old story a thought.  The character's last name was Feldman.

Feldman?  I wrote this in 1969 and never met David Feldman in college until somewhere around 1973 or 1974.  How strange, how very.

I wish David were alive, continuing to teach and still functioning as a recognized playwright aside from his college work.  He would have dismissed all of this with a laugh. . .or would he?  After all, turns out he knew some things about NY UFO history of which I was unaware, a total surprise to me.  The point of all this?  One never knows if the past might hold a peek into the future.  Or not.

Now, hmm, let's see -- where did I put that trash bag. . .

Saturday Night Lifeless:  When a long-established prime time TV show once known for a variety of political barbs has degenerated pretty much to the point where it needs to use a former Republican President for its weekly openings, or work him into the show in some derogatory way -- AND FAILING to focus upon all the failings and dangerous actions of a CURRENT Democrat clown President in Office for over two years now -- what'dya got?  You got a rusted, Bolshevist-ready train of the intellect stuck in frozen mud.  That's not a compliment.

Society Is Not Going to Embrace the Trasgender World:  Society will not form around them.  Trans people, if they don't kill themselves due to depression and/or drugs, are a sliver of the population, destined to remain on the outside, assuming once rational thought returns to a culture begging for common sense.  Be what you want to be, be happy, but know that logical, thinking people know what you are and are not psychologically, anatomically and physiologically.  You guys costumed as women don't menstruate, you can't have babies and the parts will never be far off from what your moms gave you in the delivery room.  Shed the myth and embrace reality.

Girls' sports:  Boys are not girls.  Where are the once-militant women's organizations which should be outraged about women's sports being systematically devastated by the Biden bunch's idiotic decisions.  Do we really need to espouse the scientifically proven differences between two genders?

First, do no harm, Dr. Frankenstein:  Having once worked in the military medical arena, I maintain a respect for the physician class.  However, I have seen ambitious surgeons at work, and would suggest that any surgeon dedicated to mutilating children's perfectly functional sexual organs to produce a transgender result before the kids can reason all of this out when they reach maybe age 18 needs to go to trial and off to sex prison.  Probably ditto for physicians who alter youth development with drugs, which we know can take a terrible toll on bone growth and other maturation systems.

The Pharmaceutical Circus Tent:  Depriving women of mifepristone, the popular abortion drug, seems a political move, dropped in as the decision was after some 20 years of availability.  Again, why not go whole-hog and invent more birth control options so abortion isn't even a question?  Next drug:  Naloxone for drug overdosing?  Sorry, I'm not carrying it with me, I have enough trouble finding space in my pants for pepper spray to ward off raging transgender attacks, and if you take bad drugs and overdose in my presence on the street you're probably going to die, plain and simple.  Rest in peace.

Nashville:  Wow, let a probable Christian-hating tranny kill off three adults and three children and everybody blames the gun (which was NOT an AK).  But let a Republican legislature kick out two members, who happen to be black, for doing something illegal in the chamber and -- zoom! -- there goes old Biden shooting off his mouth about race, and -- zoom! -- there comes VP Harris, mouth cocked and loaded and ready to rant in loud words about racism in the legislature and how we need more gun laws.  It never ends.  You don't silence people in a democracy, she shouts.  Really?  Isn't that what the Dems and their willing associates did on Twitter to the max to anybody speaking against their view? And by the way -- where is that tranny manifesto written by the murderer?   Seems like other such writings by crazy or dedicated people who do bad things usually get to the media right away.  So where'sit?

I think the Biden element is happy as a spring songbird about Nashville making the news.  It serves as another diversion to keep thinking minds from caring what Marxist criminals and plain stupid people in charge are doing to the country.  Biden's latest rejection of a Republican plan to increase energy production will result in unaffordable costs for everybody.  Somebody had better extol the virtues of now-safe nuclear energy to a skeptical public quickly.  And while they're at it, better make a few more bullets and nuke bombs, one can't have too many around the house.

Return of the Fortunate Son (and Daughter)?

Empowering us was what Donald Trump's presidency was all about, yet a significant portion of voters apparently opted for a pathetic joke of an administration attached to a mentally failing geriatric progressive president whose radical plans and associates know no bounds when it comes down to taking away our freedom, power and wealth.  Congratulations Democrats, you got what you voted for, we're well on the way to becoming a Third World country, and even this month's elections in some states indicate your continuing love for oppressive leftist candidates.  Gloating as many of you are with the indictment of Donald J. Trump before a Manhattan clown court, there's something else you won't really like:

Your kids, their kids and almost everybody's kids of a proper age being drafted into the military.  Soon.

Just days ago we commented about the possibility of a military draft, but were actually surprised this week to see some members of Congress, in conjunction with military brass, suddenly realizing that recruitment efforts have fallen far short.  Far be it from leftists who currently lord over military standards and practices to have a clue that diversity, equity,  inclusion, sensitivity training, loosened disciplinary options, transgender displays and other social engineering actions are as effective as a plague in keeping potential personnel from joining up.

Nevertheless, I believe a draft is closer than people outside the military realize.  When your primary recruitment choice is to solicit young people with morbid obesity, hard drug or alcohol addiction, and brains fried in other ways, you're screwed.

So what's left?  "A few good men" and women will enlist, of course, but what does a nation do when its future, generally unwilling conscripts are "snowflakes" in possession of no courage beyond their computer screen activities?  How do you quickly convert a barracks full of life and history-illiterate crybabies devoid of common sense into fighters or support personnel of any sort?

Long before Iraq and Afghanistan there was Vietnam and years of the military draft.  I know this all too well because the draft came for me and thousands of other young men.  I was definitely not a "fortunate son."  How well I remember the pre-induction physical, the questions, the indignities of a journey to loss of self-identity -- and two lucky high school friends rejected on the spot for physical reasons.  I was 19 when I enlisted in the Air Force and beat my final draft "invitation" by one week.  As it turned out, there was no trip to Southeast Asia for me during the next four years.  For that I was grateful, but the ultimate sacrifice of more than 50,000 dead military personnel -- many of whom, no doubt, wished they could have avoided the war's horrors -- remain on my mind.

Back then, yes, women served in the military also, and of course there were female nurses who performed exemplary actions.

Quite a few young men, if not successful as conscientious objectors who avoided combat on religion grounds, skipped off to Canada, often with parental support, to avoid the burning deadly hell that was the Vietnam war (some insist upon using the word, conflict, but I won't).

It's important to know that in the years following the war, the USA and Canada plugged that escape option, and future "draft dodgers" would no longer be accepted lovingly into Canada, which has now become an authoritarian paradise under blackface-lovin' leader Trudeau and his strong-arm associates.

As we hover on the verge of forced military service (if you expect patriotism from the current crop of potential inductees who have long been taught to hate America, good luck), some might ask in a panic:  Is there any escape?

Why yes, as a matter of fact there is a way out.  Unfortunately, this option is probably not for you.

Back during those Vietnam years Credence Clearwater Revival tapped into public sentiment with their song, "Fortunate Son," addressing the very real subject of the rich and powerful among us exercising the ability to have their sons excused from serving, whether through "essential" college attendance, an extended trip out of the country to Europe -- or, yes, a hop across the border to Canada.  The focus here was very much upon the political class and the generous options available to keep their kids safe.

Will the era of the fortunate son -- and now daughter -- return before a new military draft gobbles up the best and the brightest, right along with the fat, the drug-infested and brain-fried?  I'm betting the exodus has already begun among various families of means.  No, I'm not judging the merits or downside, and I'm not pushing for a draft.  But that's out of my control -- and likely yours.  I would not want to have military-eligible children at this increasingly chaotic moment in time.

A draft should not be a surprise, for Democrats are in charge and they love war.  So does the military-industrial complex President Eisenhower warned about.  I do believe the country and world would have been way better off under Trump, had he remained for another term.  Instead, irrational and dangerous people now populate the White House and a nation of faceless, non-elected bureaucrats are chewing your country and what founders called God-given rights to pieces.

So what does a country short on military population do when China and its growing affiliations threaten peace and stability?  We wish the answer could be run for the hills, but that never works.  A draft is coming.  The draft is coming.  We hope to be wrong because we remember being young and suddenly snared by a chilling government invitation arriving in the mail.  We also remember a hot and humid June day when there was barely enough time to pet the dog and say goodbye to the family, before flying from New York to Texas for basic training and then a pathway to the unknown.  Some of us got lucky, but so many others did not.

Hey, Congressman This and Senator That:  I have an idea, as long as something already seems to be in the works..  Why not quickly come up with a law making it a felony to protect YOUR OWN kids from a military draft? Let's call it The No Fortunate Son or Daughter Act of 2023.   I think we can promise widespread, if not overwhelming support from your constituents.

Too Bad You're Crazy

I'm about 30-40 years behind in watching movies or TV programs I might like, but that's not really an issue because someday, when death's black hole of mystery gobbles me up forever like a dog walker on the shore of an alligator swamp, I doubt I'll care, remember or have any concept of a previous existence. Going, going, gone.

Nevertheless, Comet TV was running a cute little slasher-but-not-a-slasher movie last month entitled, April Fool's Day, a teen audience flick from the eighties, I believe. The premise actually works in a tolerable fashion to please both young people and adults, but as ho-hum as I was about the movie it's the end theme that smacked me across the face.  Call me weird, but I usually love soundtrack music more than the motion picture, and in this instance I was charmed. 

Too Bad You're Crazy, performed by Jerry Whitman with what seemed to my ears a trace of zydeco is just a super novelty song with implications for the world of doomed human relationships, but an individual listener can take its lyrics far beyond original intent and be inspired by the lunacy which pervades our life force in the world's current social climate.

Putin?  Successfully self-intentioned if you don't mind murders by the thousands, but too bad he's crazy. It appears.

And how about Mr. Lady who killed six people at a school in Nashville?  Is this the sort of person the new Supreme Court justice what'shername had in mind when asked what is a woman and she couldn't provide an answer?  Mr. Lady:  Too bad you're (or were) crazy.

Murder-suicide incidents are always more than frustrating.  Obviously, in most circumstances suicides are wrong and serve to hurt those closest to the perpetrator.  Suggestion?  The suicide-prone should get help to excise whatever demons bite at their heels.  However, if one is absolutely and positively determined to exit this life without fail, they should keep it a private affair and not take other people with them.  What if, for instance, an afterlife actually exists and maybe the suicidal person is judged one way or another based solely on that little moment when he or she murdered innocent bystanders before taking their own life?  Okay, maybe no afterlife exists, but why even risk angering a higher power?  Just in case.

Transgendered men born as male who believe they menstruate and demand sanitary pad dispensers in restrooms?  Too bad you're crazy, Mr. Lady.  People who claim men can be pregnant sans bizarre surgical procedures or the like?  Too bad you're crazy.

Elected and unelected bureaucrats of an out-of-control administration allowing any and every piece of human filth and drugs to cross U.S. borders with the rabid assistance of cartels and incoming gangs?  Too bad you're NOT crazy, though intent upon transforming ours into a Third World country.  Nevertheless, there must be radical leftists in Congress infested with mental disorders, so to that select group we enthusiastically say -- too bad you're crazy.

Reminiscent of the movie, The Omega Man, followers of Antifa and dozens of other violent, organized groups come off like radiated zombies as they cut, pummel and burn their way through what used to be a nation respected throughout the world.  Dedicated, yet clearly insane university professors help, poisoning student minds with utter nonsense as people with rational and different points of view are shunned.  Too bad you're crazy.

A bought-and-paid-for district attorney in NY City joins a bevy of pod people motivated through pure hatred to indict Trump, awarding themselves almost cult status.  Trump, the President who saved America and in his brief time in Office worked toward endorsing established American values for all.  The leftist mob?  Too bad you're crazy.

The ongoing take-down of Donald Trump, conducted by human attack dogs almost foaming at the mouth, very much seems like a vacation in Crazytown.  For the moment, however, few notice what's brewing on the Biden family investigation front.  Too bad?  You're crazy.
