Mark's Thoughts

Debate or Debacle, Jury Is Still Out – Well I am sure you either watched the debate or caught the talking heads review by now.  Me, I was, to a point disappointed.  I was really hoping for more substance and, if you will allow me, ‘Biden Bashing’.  Ron DeSantis did do the best job of that, when allowed.  Christie, I feel, just shot any hope of the white house out the window by the level of Trump bashing he did.  Vivek Ramaswamy had some really good talking points and some ideas that we, the working, normal people agree with.  However, that said, hi personality to me, was a smart ass, who knows everything just ask me, and I am the only one who  ‘was not bought and paid for’.  That remark, to me, was really off base, and showed that he is not ready to be President.  Mike Pence, what can I say, he was not, to me, not good at all.  Nikki Haley, did well, and showed she is ready to go toe to toe with whoever it might be.   The others, might as well pick up their toys and go home.

I just saw a pole, that DeSantis and Ramaswamy, and a 52% approval rating, and the others combined, didn’t even come close.

So, who won the debate?  Who stood out?  Well, Ramaswamy stood out, however, he is like the guy you see at a party and totally avoid, regardless of how good he can talk.  DeSantis, I hope will keep his attack going on Biden and democrats.  I think Donald Trump won the night.  After all, when they did talk about problems and solutions, most all of the solutions were what Trumps. 

I hope in the next debate that the questions will lead to more discussion on the Biden administrations failed policies, and the economy, and throw some of the crap about the Biden family corruption back at them, like they are throwing shit at Trump right now.

Just my thought, but if Trump wins this kangaroo court crap, he will win the Presidency with a landslide.

We will see what the next debate will be like.

Stay Vigil.

Special Counsel For Hunter Biden – Attorney General Merrick Garland last week appointed David Weiss, the Delaware federal prosecutor who has led the investigation into Hunter Biden, as a special counsel overseeing the investigation.

Who is David Weiss?  He was appointed by then-President Trump as the U.S. Attorney in Delaware.  Now I have heard some good things about him, however with that said, I truly believe this is nothing more than the beginning of a cover-up, bury job.  We know that the DOJ and Merrick Garland are nothing more than a tool to be used as the string puller in the Democratic party sees fit.  We are seeing it play out now as they go after Donald Trump.  I know I am not telling you anything, but OMG, they are going to charge and try and charge Trump with everything they can, and keep it in front of the public, and demonize Trump as much as they can.  I mean can you imagine if Trump, after winning the election, had turned the assets of the DOJ on Hillary, and attacked her the way they are attacking him now, the left and the legacy media would have gone off the rails, and I believe all but refuse to report on it.

I believe this action against Trump is just one of the many tactics that the Democrats will be using to divide and conquer the Republican Party, and this scares me.  The Democrats want nothing more than Trump to be out of the picture for both campaigning and the election.

Trump Votes – Well lets just say that Trump is not able to run, what happens to all of his supports votes, all 70 million of them.  So do those votes automatically go to the Republican candidate?  I don’t believe so.  I believe those votes will go to the candidate that does not do their best to trash Trump every chance they get.  The candidates like Pence and Christie, they might as well pack up their bags and go back home.  At this point in time they have beaten up Trump enough, to have lost any support from the Trump base they may have had or hoped for.

We will see what the rest of the week brings.

Trump’s Indictment:  Well, I know by now you have heard endless hours of Trump’s indictment.  How he will be in court tomorrow at 4:00pm, but he won’t be seen as he will enter underground.  Last night the legacy media broke in on programming and then spent the next 90 minutes hashing over the same thing over and over.  Now mind you, there was NOTHING on Hunter’s issues.  This is without a doubt the biggest display of a double set of standards I have seen.  Heck, even without Trump’s issues, you heard and/or read very little about Hunter, and if you the media was downplaying it and basically saying that the Republicans were picking on Hunter and Joe.  As a sidenote, Joe and his brood are on vacation when the indictments were handed down, and of course no comment on that.

This is a solid in your face people weaponization of the DOJ, and the back media to bring Trump’s issues to the for front, and bury Hunter’s.  And one other question, if Trump’s ‘supposed’ crimes were so damm important and earth shaking, why did these upstanding and righteous prosecutors wait for 2.5 years to go after him, even I can figure that out, they are going to do all they can to make sure Trump is not on the ticket.  We will see, this could backfire on them, Trump’s support could even get stronger.

No Joe Biden or Trump in 2024:  One of my followers had a real interesting idea.  He thinks that BOTH the Democratic and Republican parties are working together, kinda.  He thinks that Joe will either 1). Drop out cause of his mental state, and/or his distress of his loving son Hunter’s issues, and of course they really don’t Harris at all, no way.  As far as Trump, well once again Mitch has not said one thing in Trump’s defense, and wow Pence jumped on the bandwagon to bash Trump.  The others in the Republican race, were very, very careful on any remarks they made about it.  So now, if his theory is correct, would the Democrats put out there?  My guess would be Cavin Newsom, and then, Gretchen Whitmer for VP, that ticket would totally destroy the country.

Now for the Republicans, well I would lean toward DeSantis, and who for VP, not sure.  I think Pence is out of it, especially after his comments about Trump today.  What Pence forgets is, if by wild chance, he was able to be the choice, he WILL need the Trump supporters to win, and at this point in time, I think he has blown that big time.  I guess we will see after the debate who shakes out.

JB Pritzker Show:  Well Pritzker is doing all he can to show the far left socialists that he is worthy of being part of them, especially with the Democratic convention going to be held in Chicago.  He signed a House Bill that will allow NON citizens be in law enforcement i.e., police.  Let me repeat that NON citizens.  Does anyone else think this is totally wrong on so many levels, you can’t even start to count them.  Hell, Chicago is a wild city now, totally out of control, and Pritzker does not say one thing about that, does not hold the mayor accountable for it.  This is just a true example of shit-show leadership.  I bet this one might come back and bite him.  It will be interesting to see how many law enforcement agencies hire these NON-citizens.

We will see what the rest of the week brings.

As The World Turns For Hunter:  Well his ‘in the bag’ plea deal blew up on him.  A federal judge in Delaware on Wednesday ordered Hunter Biden to “actively seek employment,” abstain from drugs or alcohol, submit to random drug testing and not possess a firearm as conditions for staying out of jail.   For most of us out here in the real world, we would be grateful, and say thank you sir.  Now I am sure that when Hunter got in the car, he said ‘KMA’, this will be taken care in other ways.  I am sure someone will offer Hunter a big time job, that is do nothing, and get paid huge amounts of money, oh wait, he had that job, and blew it up his nose, and got blown in other way.  So I guess it will be back to business as normal for him and his family.  The only thing is, I think this whole mess might impact the Biden campaign, if there is one.  Too many questions that Joe would have to respond to in a debate, oh wait, never mind, those questions would not be asked by the moderator.  This whole thing was as big joke, just like the Secrete Service not being able to find where Hunter’s cocaine came from.

Heat Wave:  Well it is hot over a big portion of the country, and of course the climate change wacks  say the other way to stop this to stop using fossil fuels, RIGHT NOW.  Well first I was watvhing the local weather tonight and guess what, it was hotter in 1936, 101dg, that it was today, so see to my small mind, this is just a cycle the weather goes through.  However, the administration and every other climate change nut will use to push more renewable energy.  Please, PLEASE, do not get me wrong, I think we as a nation, should research, and develop renewable energy sources, but this is not done overnight, or in a year, or even over an administration.  It will take a generational shift, as well as a huge infrastructure improvement.  Never the less, this administration will do all they can to control how we use fossil fuels, and make it really hard for us.

Feds and Interest Rates:  Well, the feds did it again, raised the rate by a .25 basis point, and are hinting at a second one yet this year.  This will put the interest rate at a 22 year high.  This move they say is to cool inflation, but yet the administration says inflation is cooling and really not a factor anymore.  Really, gee, if you have a house, or a car, or RV, or boat that you are trying to sell, your buyer pool, just went dry.  And those companies that make fun things to do, like RV’s, boats, or any kind of fun toys, well due to this high interest rate, their sales will tank, and then of course they will lay off employees.  This will start the cycle all over again.  I am really surprised that the housing market for the seller has stayed as strong as it has, but I can’t believe that won’t change in the near future.

Mitch McConnell:  Pulled a Joe.  MitchMcConnell took a little mind break today, and after said he was ‘fine’.  Ok these guys that are driving the boat(government) are getting up in years, and in some case have lost their effectiveness.  We will see this more and more, and this will need to be address in the coming election.

ET Phone Home:  Ok I have to admit, I do believe in like outside of our planet.  That said, I sure never thought I would see the White House take a stance on it. But of course, they say they don’t know. Like where the cocaine came from, or Joe didn’t know what Hunter was doing.  Side Note:  Did you see the picture of Hunter driving Joe’s corvette, with two babes in it, wow, I mean really.

We will see what the rest of the week brings.

Kamala Harris Her Word Salad – This should prove to all that Kamala Harris is not a Vice President, and should prove she should never be a President.  Her word salad response to what is culture should prove that she cannot speak or put a sentence together that makes any sense, and all she can do is laugh.  There is no professionalism in her what so ever, I can see now why some in the Democratic party are wanting her off the ticket, she is a total embarrassment for the country.

Jill Scott – What she did to the National Anthem is beyond words.  She thinks she made a statement to further the black cause.  All she did was show that she is a fool, and did more damage than good.  I know I was thinking if I had been in charge of the sound system there, I would have turned her off, but then that would have only furthered her cause and make her stand out even more.  Hey lady if you don’t like this country, leave.  You said you were going to move to Sweden a couple of years ago, well hell, don’t let the door hit you in the ass.

White House and white powder – Well cocaine found it’s wat into the White House, gee there is a shock.  I am sure this is not the first time it has been in the White House, especially during Biden’s stay there.  Now, remember, this is the White House, one of, if not the most secure places in the world, and they can’t figure out who brought it in, Bu?? SH??.  The Secrete Service knows how it got in there, they are just looking for a patsy to take the fall for it so Hunter will be clean.  You watch, White House will come up with some wild ass story, and someone will take the fall, and it will all go away.

Janet Yellen – The one who could not even manage a kool-aid stand on the street corner is over in Bejing, going to lay down the law with China.  Actually she is over there getting her marching orders to bring back to the Biden Administration on what will happen next with the US.  She is no more than a very bad puppet, who’s strings are being pulled by the CCP.

These are just some examples of why we all need to get out and vote.  Vote I hope to remove the trainwreck of an administration from the White House and the control of this country.

We shall keep our eyes open and ears listening.

Happy 4^th of July, we celebrate our Independence again.

I apologize for not posting since May 24^th, but work had me very busy.

Biden and Sweden – I am sure you have read that Sweden wants to join NATO.  This country has pretty much been neutral, however when Russia went into Ukraine, well that changed everything.  That said, I watched part of the televised meeting between Biden and the Prime Minister, and to say it was sad, is a understatement. Biden looked half asleep, and everything he said was what he was reading of note cards.  What a poor excuse for a leader.

Biden and Harris 2024 – Well now this is going to get really interesting.  I am reading even people in the Democratic party are really beginning to question this ticket.  A vote for Biden will be a vote for Harris as President, which I am sure she would love, but wow, that is the last thing we need.  I am hearing talk to Newsome and Widmer as a backup plan, and of course the mainstream media would sell that ticket big time.  Then we have the wildcard of RFK Jr.  This is shaping up to be a real mess.

Biden and his crackdown on fossil fuel plants – Biden’s crackdown on fossil fuel plants is going to place this country at risk on so many levels, and really cost the American public huge amounts of money for their utility bills.

The progressive Democrat / Socialists movement and policies need to be stopped before this country goes so far down the path that we might not ever come back to what we are.

Now that I am back in the swing of things, I will be back to posting more often, and thank you all for reading and please post any comments you want.

Debit Ceiling:  Well neither side is just rushing to the table to resolve this one way or another.  You know the part that pisses me off is that is no deal is met, and the country goes into default, and items like Social Security, Medicare payments, and even salaries of like the FAA would not be ‘paid’.  Yet I am pretty sure Congress still gets paid, as they are our leaders.  Now mind you if that happens, and your Social Security check does not come, just call Ameren and let them know, as I am sure they will say that is OK, pay us when you can.  I fell that the Washington politicians have treated the Americans who put them in office, whatever side of the isle you are on, with total disregard, and a total lack of respect.

Ron DeSantis:  Well today was the big day, he made his announcement for 2024.  Now mind you, I am not sure I can for the way he did it, on Twitter, really?  I guess I am really out of touch these days, and that is how you do it now.  That said, now the battle begins.  I am pretty sure that things are going to get wild, and the mud slinging will be at all new levels, between Trump and DeSantis.  Two things worry me about this matchup.  First, the two of them sparring and trying win the nomination, the real issues will take a backseat and get lost, all the while the Dems / Socialists / Progressives will continue doing their damage.  Second, and the scariest is this could cause a split in the Republican party, those wanting Trump, and those who don’t.  Then the question would be could the Republican candidate win the general.  I don’t believe so.  The Republican party has to be unified and all behind whatever candidate is chosen, or Biden will do his old man shuffle right back into the White House, and this country will be a place we will not recognize.  We will see how this all plays out.

Shorts:

Secretary Of Transportation is doing great working these days.  He is worried about Tesla autopilot.  He is really digging into some real issues with transportation.  Mind you he could make sure rail safety is important.  Or maybe even update out ATC system to be state of the art, instead of 40 years old.  But that would require thought and work.

Target Stores:  Well I guess Target figured out that maybe their open support of pride merchandise may have been a bad business move.  You would have thought that seeing what happened with Bud Light, maybe would have given them second thoughts about moving forward with their plan.

It will be interesting to see how the Republican’s campaigning goes, and yes we will talk about Tim Scott and his bid for the nomination.

Well, we have no ‘agreement’ on the budget ceiling.  Which I do believe that both sides are playing their fracking little games and we are all in the middle of this.  You know really if it was that bad, I would think that the President would not be at the G7, and McCarthy would be on the offensive to force the issue, but that has not happened.  I guess they will begin talks when Biden gets back, in the meantime, financial markets will be going nuts because they will be afraid the country will go into default.

This administration has done the most of any other administration to destroy this country, and in the process rebuild it in a socialists / progressive way.  Think about this next time you turn on your TV and just look at the ads you see, and then tell me progressive ways aren’t being pushed down our throats, and anything and everything is acceptable and normal.

You know over the past 18 months, I have talked about the mainstream or legacy media and how they are so bias towards this administration and it’s progressive agenda.  Well, I am beginning to read CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CBS and others.  I will be picking two to three topics and see what their spin is VS Fox News, Wall Street Journal, and others.  I believe that I will find that the mainstream / legacy media is playing a big part in gaslighting and indoctrination.

Shorts:

Brandon Johnson Mayor of Chicago.  I thought that Lightfoot was off the rails, well Brandon has taken how to screw the people of Chicago to a whole new level.  Below is how he is proposing to raise revenue for the city.  Mind you, businesses are leaving as well as people, so he has to figure out a way to generate revenue:

$100 million from taxing financial transactions at a rate of $1 or $2 for every “securities trading contract”

$400 million over four years from raising the real estate transfer tax on high-end home sales, commercial, apartment and other properties worth more than $1 million

$98 million from “making the big airlines pay for polluting the air”

Over $20 million from reinstating the $4 per month, per employee “head tax” on “large companies” that perform at least half their work in Chicago

$30 million from increasing one of the nation’s leading hotel taxes

$100 million from new “user fees on high-end commercial districts frequented by the wealthy, suburbanites, tourists and business travelers.”

Now that you have read these, what a plan, wow, and of course lets throw a little class warfare in there as well.

This is just an example of how these socialists / progressives work, and as I have stated, they start at the local level.  Keep you eyes and ears open.

Well, this week was busy.  The end of Title 42 and the flood of border crossers is in full swing.  But, of course Alejandro Mayorkas says the border has never been more secure.  Remember people these are not just poor people from South America looking for a better life.  Some of these people are criminals, terrorists, gang members, and human traffickers.  But once again the Biden administration has told us all will be ok, we should welcome these poor people.  And the best one is VP Harris is saying all is going smoothly on a fund raising trip to Georgia.

Now we have the debt ceiling and possible default.  Of corse the administration is doing their very best to push the whole blame on the Republican House.  Which as we all know is a bunch of BS.

These administrations fiscal policies, as well as their foreign policies, energy policies, and virtually everything this administration has done are total and complete failures.  And yet the mainstream media prop up this administration as the best ever.

Now this week we might hear something on the Hunter mess, and how far it extends into the Biden family, but I am sure it will be spun to where nothing really happened that was that bad.

What I am hoping is that all you can see through this sham of a administration, and how ever important it is to remove this bunch in 2024.

Well April fools came a little late this year, but it did come.  Joe Biden announcing, he is going to seek reelection.  And he is, at this point, going to keep Harris as the VP.

I have to admit.  In past postings I did state that I thought that Joe would have been out within the first 3 to 9 months, and Harris would have been the President, and Pelosi the VP.  That did not happen, and I am not quite sure why.

I thought maybe the Democrats would have put someone else on the ticket, or at least thrown a name or 2 out there that might challenge Biden, but nope.  I will give you that Kennedy is making some noise, the problem with him is he has a brain, and his own thoughts, and just might not be able to be told what to do by those behind the doors.

Joe Biden is the perfect choice for the party, and I mean party as in Socialists Democratic Party.  Biden is no more than the face of the progressive socialists democrats, and will do their bidding for them.

So, moving forward, what will Biden run on?  He can’t run on the great economy. He can’t run on his foreign policy achievements, not after the mess in Afghanistan, and the second mess that is brewing in the Sudan.  He has show no strength towards China, or Russia, they know that Biden as a person is weak, and the government that he represents is even weaker.

His energy policy’s have driven fuel prices through the roof and, he has given our National reserves away countries that could give a crap less the United States, other than us being a cash cow for them.

As this election cycle moves forward, I am sure we are going to be treated to the biggest and best mud throwing and finger pointing, and name call event ever.  But hopefully through all of this, you will be able to get down to what each platform will stand for and on.

We know that the current administration is not for making America great nor does it want the people to be happy and prosperous.  It want division, and turmoil so that it can do it business under the cover of distraction.

Over time we will see how this plays out.
