More Ramblings from A Grumpy Old Man… Are you sick of the anti-Israeli protesters. I am. But honestly I have never thought much about pro-Israeli or pro-Palestinian groups. Those people have been fighting since 1882 when an Arab man was accidentally shot by a Jewish guard during a wedding. Every time you think the dust has settled there, a conflict springs back up. It’s beyond tedious. But, to paraphrase the late Andy Rooney, I have Jewish friends. Good, upstanding people they are. They don’t seem any different than my non-Jewish friends. They put their pants on one leg at a time, breathe the same air, and bleed red just like me. I do have empathy for them in this most recent battle. I don’t think I know any Palestinians, though. I’m sure there are many good ones who only want peace.…

Congressional Deadbeats presently have an approval rating of 12%, about the same as dirt. Disgraced president Richard Nixon’s approval rating never got that low. Inept president Jimmy Carter’s rating never got that low. George Santos from NY was recently expelled from Congress. His 13% favorability rating was higher than the collective body tossing him out. Members of Deadbeat Nation are paid $174,000 per year, plus the unconstitutional payout they voted themselves last year of $34,000 for expenses encountered in the Swamp. None of that expense has to be documented – they all just get it. This makes their salary, according to my Chebanse Elementary education, to be $208,000 per Deadbeat. They are paid higher than 93% of Americans. The Deadbeats were in session “working” a mere 117 days in the last term. Only fifty bills have been passed under their governance, about half what is normal. They spend as much or more time begging for money to stay in their cushy position in the Swamp than working for us.…

Respected journalist Mollie Hemingway and The Federalist has reported that Liz Cheney and her Cabal suppressed evidence during the sham January 6th committee proceedings. Turns out Trump requested 10,000 National Guard troops to be present for assistance at the Capitol for the gathering crowd. This information has been hidden from us for over three years. You may want to read that last sentence again. The Cheney Cabal falsely claimed they had no evidence to support Trump’s claims he offered troop assistance. This information came from the interview of Deputy Chief of Staff Anthony Ornato that Cheney herself participated in January 2022. Oranato’s description of the events match that of testimony by Kash Patel, the former acting secretary of defense. In the interview, Ornato stated he heard White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows on the phone advising DC Mayor Muriel Bowser for troops to defend the city. He also testified under oath that Trump suggested 10,000 soldiers were needed at the rallies scheduled for January 6. Both Trump backers and left-wing groups were planning protests the same day.…

“Andy came to Shawshank Prison in early 1947 for murdering his wife and the fella she was bangin’. “ That was the famous line spoken by Morgan Freeman, aka Ellis “Red” Redman in the movie The Shawshank Redemption. How old were you when you found out that the movie was filmed at an Ohio State Reformatory rather than the fictional Maine prison the story led us to believe. Did you also know the movie was adapted from a book written by Stephen King named Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption. Me neither. Tim Robbins got the leading role as Andy Dufresne, sentenced to life for the murders of his wife and her lover,despite his innocence. Interestingly, Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise and Kevin Costner all wanted the part of Andy. Could you imagine any one of those others in that role instead of Robbins? Me neither. Personally, Morgan Freeman as Red,the contraband smuggler was the best character in the movie. His acting was superb, his narration even better. The prison where the movie was shot is equally interesting. Located in Mansfield Ohio, construction began in 1886 on ground formerly used as a training camp for Northern Civil War soldiers. After many funding delays, the facility was completed 24 years later in 1910 at a cost of $1,326,769.…

Webster tells us a scholar is a person who has done advanced study in a special field. It also calls a scholar a learned person. I’m going to show how that is not always true. Consider Webster’s words as you read the politically biased rubbish that 154 so-called-scholars unleashed for the liberal media to gobble and regurgitate last week. As gleefully reported by the main-stream media, “scholars” produced a presidential rating system that, of no surprise, ranks Donald Trump as the worst president in history. Those so-called scholars might have as well thrown a ham hock into the middle of a pack of coyotes to match the feeding frenzy by the media. We shouldn’t be surprised of a last-placed ranking for Trump by a band of collegiate professors. The report smacks of so much malarky that it points out the rot exists in American academia. Sadly, most professors today have about as much credibility as an Anthony Fauci report. Pathetically, these 154 “scholars” rated Joe Biden the 14th best president of all time, and then Barack Obama 7th. Go ahead and chuckle now before continuing to listen.…

After being shot at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade the poor Lisa Lopez-Galvan had not been buried yet nor the family time to grieve before anti-gun zealots stomped all over her memory. The mother of two was the only person to die in the shootout. At least 22 other innocent people were harmed. As of the time of this writing, there have been three people arrested. One has been released and two kids charged. It appears the gun violence was a result of a dispute, and in my mind, bad parenting. The anti-gun organization known as March for Our Lives was out quickly doing a great deal of the stomping. This is a student-led organization which promotes demonstrations in support of gun control while the rest of us are out working. MFOL began shouting that the shooting was “depressingly American.” The group claims to be young activists “promoting civic engagement, education, and direct action to eliminate the epidemic of gun violence.” Epidemic of gun violence? Did you know on the day of the shooting, there were 82,880,000 legal gun owners, owning 393 million guns that did not kill anybody?…

According to a 2019 Pew Research Center report, 38% of Americans claim to be Independent. However, only 7% of voters are actually really true Independents. But then I read further, you know, past the first paragraph. Turns out, of the 38% claiming to be an Independent, 17% of them nearly always vote Democrat. In full disclosure, I thought this number would be much greater. But then, it occurred to me, why would anyone admit they voted for Biden? He supposedly won with 81 million votes, but it is nearly impossible to find anyone that admits to voting for Biden. But that left 13% that usually vote Republican – another surprise to me. (I must be easily surprised) At 13%, it was a much higher number than I thought it would be. You suppose those folks voted for Trump but didn’t want anybody to know about it? Bet they do it again though! I can’t blame them, the media like to portray Trump voters as mouth breathing ignorant troglodytes. Pew did another poll in 2021 on the subject, but my eyeballs crossed trying to understand it. The poll showed there are actually 9 different voter groups calling themselves Independents. In case one is confused where their views place them in their spectrum, they included a handy-dandy 16-question poll to see where one might fit on the political spectrum.…

Ask yourself, are you better off now under Biden? A commentary appeared in a newspaper I also write for that bears mentioning – not so much for its journalistic excellence and insight, but for its lack of accuracy. This piece was so far left it could have been written for the Washington Compost or Russia’s Pravda. The piece I’m referring to is another hatchet job written about Donald Trump. Readers to that paper would have expected nothing less. Trump seems to be Darth Vader to liberals. A vote for Biden would mean the writer is fine with the millions of illegal immigrants flooding this country and over-taxing the economies of states and cities. They bring drugs, diseases, and terrorists with them. Many of those poor illegals are now freezing in the cold. Voting for Biden means the writer is okay with the effects of Bidenomics that has crippled the budgets of so many Americans. Voting for Biden means warmongering, paid for by taxpayers would continue. We would continue to keep pouring billions into Ukraine and Israel so kickbacks can be funneled to Congressional Warhawks? It also means it was fine to leave billions of dollars of military equipment to the enemy. Voting for Biden means being is peachy with the Biden Crime Syndicate misdeeds and kickbacks at the expense of Americans. A vote for Biden means a man showing signs of dementia at age 81 at the helm of the world’s top job, would remain there until 86 years old. Worse, if Biden become incapacitated, his replacement might be Kamala Harris! Voting for Biden means being cool with the Democrat ploy of keeping Trump embroiled in nefarious court proceedings to prevent him from being elected or worse, doing his job. How is that good for America. Yet, when Trump speaks of retaliation, he’s labeled a dictator. Folks, the list of people actually hurt by Trump while in office is small – minute compared to Biden’s time in office. In fact, most people thrived while Trump was in office, something that can’t be said of Biden. Ask yourself, are you better off now under Biden than you were when Donald Trump was your president?…

Ever hear of the “27 Club?” It’s not something you want to subscribe to, and given the demographics of my readership, the opportunity has long passed us by. The 27 Club is a list of well-known musicians who “bit the dust” at the age of twenty-seven. The term took off in 1994 when Kurt Cobain of Nirvana shot himself. The drug-addled musician was depressed and obsessed he might lose his house. At that point the media began to link the fact Cobain was 27, the same age as the demise of rockers Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, and Brian Jones. One publication stated the 27 Club is “one of the most elusive and remarkably tragic coincidences in rock history.” You suppose the author of that last line had a flair for the dramatic.…

As a grandfather of eleven grandchildren, I cannot imagine a worse day than to be told one of them has cancer or some other catastrophic disease. In my opinion that’s the place whale dung sits on in the totem pole of life.. We have a grandchild mysteriously losing her hearing, which pales in comparison to cancer, but even that nearly drives me to tears. I acknowledge life is precious to everyone, and that cancer is a bastard, but I would think most adults would willingly take their child’s disease if they only could. I bet the good Lord hears that prayer hourly. Disease may be a fact of life for “thinning the herd”, but children shouldn’t have to be subject to it. For that reason, my charity of choice is always the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. It costs them $1.7 million daily to operate that facility. Marlo Thomas and her colleagues do such a Herculean job of raising money and hammering the message home of what that wonderful organization is doing. And the fact that families never receive a bill from St. Jude for anything so they can help their child survive is incredible.

Next November 5th, I will be voting for Donald J. Trump for president. It will be the third time in nine years throwing my support his way. Initially, I voted for Trump because he was not a politician. He’s a self-made, wealthy businessman without political baggage. I admire people who can start from nothing and make something of themselves. My father was like that. Given my disdain for most politicians, I admire the fact Trump isn’t one. Politicians don’t own him – he answers to banks and shareholders. To do that, you have to have a good relationship with people. Trump’s presidency had some ups and downs, but few people suffered under Trump as they are now under Biden. Yes, Trump is brash and vain. Do you want a church mouse as your president? Trump knows how to wheel and deal. He’s used his business acumen and tough-nosed NY persona on the national and world stage, leading by being an America-first president. What the hell is wrong with that?…

So, let me regale you this Christmas season with the rich history of this ballet. Most people know the Nutcracker as a musical written by Tchaikovsky, the Russian composer, in 1892, and little else. In fact, Tchaikovsky only wrote the music; about nine months before the ballet, which was choreographed by Marius Petipa. The original story, named the Nutcracker and the Mouse King, was written by ETA Hoffman in Germany in 1816. His version was considered “dark and disturbing” and even “creepy.” I read the plot for the Hoffman tale, and he could put Stephen King to shame. The ballet was unsuccessful initially, though Tchaikovsky’s music, which was debuted before the ballet, was considered a classic score. Tchaikovsky, however, was unimpressed with the music he produced for it. In a letter to his employer, he complained “the awareness that things are not going well torments me and agonizes me to tears, to the point of sickness… As we now know, it would become a classic. Through years of adaptations, the ballet and its music have become a Christmas staple.…

I have had a mild interest in the modern technology called AI, or artificial intelligence. With my limited knowledge of computers, I might know more about women than AI technology. And even though I have been married to a great woman for over 43 years, I do not have much of a clue about her either. Wikipedia states AI is the intelligence of machines or software, as opposed to humanities intelligence. Invented in 1956, but not developed until 2012, eleven years later it is in use throughout industry, government, and scientific communities. Google, Netflix, Amazon, You Tube, Siri, and Alexa are examples of companies already using AI. Did you follow that, folks? AI is already here and in use. While we were busy raising kids, trying not to die from COVID, trying to eke out a living and all of other life’s mundane activities, artificial intelligence has already been employed all around us. This is particularly aggravating to me as I read AI is able to author novels at a time when I just finally got the time to do it myself. The thing about AI is it never stops learning and does so at speeds we cannot wrap our head around. Its goals are general intelligence, including reasoning, knowledge, representation, planning, learning, natural language processing, perception and support for robotics. Wait – support for robotics?

By now, you’ve probably heard of the efforts by certain states to remove Trump from the 2024 presidential ballot. Rhode Island is the most recent state to reject that effort. This rejection comes after similar dismissals from Florida, Colorado, New Hampshire, Minnesota, Michigan, and the District of Columbia. There are eighteen more states considering denying Trump on the ballot. The reason is Trump supposedly engaged in insurrection due to his actions related to the January 6th protest at the capital. The disqualification decree comes from Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which bars people from holding office if they have engaged in insurrection or rebellion. This Section was enacted to prevent members of the Confederacy from the Civil War from running for office. As it pertains to the court cases to remove Trump, I assumed this was another avenue the Swamp was using to derail the Trump train. It was a reasonable assumption when one considers the various bogus indictments that have been leveled at him by various corrupt states attorneys like Latitia James and Jack Smith. At present, there is only one individual filing all these cases through various law firms. Supposedly a Republican presidential candidate from Texas, John Anthony Castro is the man filing these frivolous suits. I say supposedly Republican because until 2020 Castro was a Democrat, which would include the time Trump was in the White House.

Not only do I not believe Biden will get the Democrat nomination, I also don’t believe the others running on the Democrat side will be the ultimate candidate. That would include Robert Kennedy Jr., Cornel West, Marianne Williamson, Dean Phillips, or somebody named Cenk Uygur. (If you’ve never heard of Mr. Uygur either, he’s a Turkish-born politician, commentator, and media host. This begs the question; I thought one had to be born here to run for president.) The Democrat party leadership, although seriously flawed in their ideology, are no dummies. In fact, these comrades are as intellectually formidable as they are socialist. They’re taking their time until after the Republican convention, held a month before the Democrat convention, to see if Trump has been tossed in prison for their considerable sham efforts, and if so, who has taken his place. At that time, they will decide if they want to run California Governor Gavin Newsom or Hillary “But It’s My Turn” Clinton. Clinton will be 77 years-old by the 2024 election and has gotten quite “frumpy,” seeing Russia behind every tree. They also believe they have Michelle Obama in the wings if they need a heavy weight, although it doesn’t seem like that is on Michelle’s docket right now. Another person who won’t be on the 2024 ticket is VP Kamala “Giggles” Harris. It will be very interesting to see what they figure out to do with her. She probably sees herself as heir apparent once Biden has been put in the Alzheimer’s ward of the nearest Delaware retirement home. You can bet, she will not be instilled as Vice President again either. After those candidates, there’s not much else available. I can’t see them running Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, or Bernie Sanders up the flagpole again. Perhaps they might throw up (pardon the pun) Michigan’s socialist governor Gretchen Whitmer, but I think Trump could beat her from prison. Same for the worthless Pete Buttigieg. It appears right now it will be Trump against Newsom. If the Dems are successful at reserving a prison cell for Trump, then it will be DeSantis against Newsom.

It’s official. In the words of Buddy Guy, “Well I done got old.” In a moment of bitter sweetness, I got my first Social Security (SS) check this week. I could have received it 4 ½ years ago, but decided to wait until full retirement age, 66 years, 6 months. For the rest of my life, I will get paid by the government on the second Wednesday of the month, minus Medicare insurance. According to the government earnings site, starting in 1972 when I paid in $228, I allowed the government to keep $210,073. Then my employers kicked in another $214,492, totaling $424,565 over 50 years. Imagine the amount had I been able to make interest off that money. SS was originally the brainchild of Dudley Leblanc in his failed 1932 attempt for Louisiana governor. Edwin Witte, known as the father of SS, a political scientist at the University of Wisconsin, used Lablanc’s idea to develop the concept for federally funded pension plans in 1934. It was then pushed through Congress by Frances Perkins, the Labor Secretary in the Franklin Roosevelt’s cabinet in response to the Great Depression. At that time, poverty rates for senior citizens exceeded 50 percent. The SS Act was enacted on August 14, 1935, during Roosevelt’s first term in office. He established the President’s Committee on Economic Security, using the infamous Keynesian Economics as part of the New Deal. This was the first time this country had established federal assistance for the elderly, identified as Title 1. Also hung on the New (Raw) Deal was Title 111 for unemployment insurance, Title 1V for Aid to Families with dependent children, Title V - Maternal and child Welfare, Titel V1 - public health services, and Title X for the blind.

Russia is pounding Ukraine into oblivion, while Israel, in retaliation is doing the same to Hamas in Gaza. Iran is probably next, which will catapult the world into further chaos. China is looking on while waiting for a chance to glob onto Tawain, figuring nobody would notice. Meanwhile back here in US, useless professors at liberal colleges are stirring up impressionable and ignorant students. They use this opportunity to voice anti-Semitic sentiments to further divide an already deeply divided country – sentiments they would have never uttered on their own. The fact that Hamas bombed Israel first seems inconsequential to those now busting their spleens to defend Hamas, described as an Islamist political and military organization Our border is hemorrhaging people coming here illegally, while we have no clue who some of them are nor what to do with them now that they are here.

California senator Dianne Feinstein’s death last week was great fodder for the media machine, but highly inconvenient for the Democrats, and more particularly, California governor Gavin Newsome. So, now all eyes are looking west to Governor Newsome as he has the task of naming a replacement to fill Feinstein’s seat for the next year until an election is held. This means Newsome will have to take time out of not running for president in case Biden does, to meet with top Democrat honcho’s to decide who they want to send. Surely you don’t think that selection is going to be Newsome’s alone. Newsome somewhat locked himself in before Feinstein’s death when he shot off his mouth and committed to appointing a Black woman if Feinstein were to pass or step down due to declining health. Seems to me his duty to the citizens of California was to commit to hiring the best candidate as possible, regardless of race or gender, but what do I know, I’m from Chebanse. There are three people that had previously tossed their hat in the ring for the seat, Representatives Adam Schiff, Katie Porter, and Barbara Lee. However, Schiff and Porter find themselves gender and/or pigment-challenged per Newsome’s selection criteria, leaving only Lee in the category of Black and woman. I have no idea if Newsome was trying to forewarn Schiff and Porter to back away from wanting appointed to the seat, but I doubt he gets Schiff to back off unless he were to do something to shut him up, like giving him San Diego. With Newsome campaigning for not running for president if Joe does, can he afford an enemy like Schiff and every Black voter in California? Ms. Lee is already calling foul. Newsome is probably going to want to drag his feet to placate the three California representatives, which would be diametrically opposed to what Chuck Schumer will want.…

The Pack will be putting their current eight game win streak over the Bears on the line with a new quarterback at the helm. Gone is the great, but pouty Aaron Rodgers, who has “owned” the Bears. In his place steps Jordan Love, with three years of sitting on the sidelines watching one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game. The contest kicks off at 3:30 CST. The Packers are 10-point underdogs in this game. I’m not saying the Packers will win this game, but I think they will get beat by just a few points on a late-4 th -quarter missed field goal by a rookie kicker. I also believe the Packers will win the second game at the end of the year in Green Bay.…

I watched the GOP primary debate from my living room last Wednesday, having not been contacted by FOX for tickets. In between listening to combatants talk over each other, I was texting my cousin, who is also a politically conservative animal. I was literally thinking how I wished they’d turn off the microphones on Nikki Haley and Chris Christie when I got a text from the cuz, “Nikki’s husband probably deployed again so he could get away from her.” This was followed by an expletive of Mr. Christie. We laughed at our crude humor – both being from Chebanse.…

Much to my horror, a good friend might have fallen off the Trump train. He’s always been for Trump passionately but inexplicably is leaning toward Vivek Ramaswamy. While I’m on record stating Mr. Ramaswamy would be an excellent choice for president, I just don’t think he can win the presidency in 2024, and it might be a vote taken from Trump. Our friendship was forged over many a round of bad golf and good wine, so I looked deeper into Ramaswamy.…

Perhaps it would be easier to pass age limit restrictions than term limits. An age limit restriction would have the benefit of limiting terms to some degree. The fact is, we don’t need the aged with little energy and geriatric issues meandering the halls of Congress. If I were to be introducing the law, I would push for an age limit of 80 years old – nobody can run for any office if they’re 80 or older. That would include president too, so Biden would not qualify.…

Have you heard about the new “contentious” song by country singer Jason Aldean? Well, I hadn’t until about a week ago when a friend sent it to me, knowing it would trip my trigger. She’s like that. If you haven’t heard it, run…don’t walk, to your nearest internet source, google YouTube, turn up the sound, and listen to the song. You won’t be disappointed. That is, unless you are a liberal snowflake that doesn’t like conservatives standing with a backbone to respond forcefully to wokeness. The singing is good, and the guitar work excellent, but listen to the message Jason is sending above all.…

The affirmative action decision by the Supreme Court, striking down racial consideration policies at Harvard and the University of North Carolina spurred me into looking into those universities a little closer. The biggest thing learned is that back in 1975, when I was considering what to do with my life, I should have set my sites for an executive or head coach position into higher education or running their enormous endowment programs. Looking at university endowment programs was eye-opening. Private higher education endowments are among the richest entities in the world, with a combined $854.11 billion. Harvard sits at the top of the heap at $53.2 billion. The average endowment of all universities is over a billion dollars. Long story short, these universities that are shunning your kid for admission, or charging an arm and leg for tuition, are sitting on over a lot of money.…

By now, it should be obvious to everyone that Dad and Lad Biden are up to their chins in corruption. Even the most fervent left-leaner must have that sinking feeling that this is not going to end well for Joe, perhaps carrying through the 2024 election. I imagine, in their head, they’re blaming it on Hunter, and that Joe was just being a loving father. Bull! IRS whistleblower, Gary Shapley is blowing the lid off the lies and cover-ups we’ve been fed by the Biden Administration, AND the Dept. of Injustice, AND the FBI, AND the complicit mainstream media about bribery schemes that took place when Biden was vice president during Obama’s Crime Spree. The lies, slow walking, and cover ups into Hunter Biden’s laptop, his tax evasion, and the gun charges have been going on for five years, helping Joe Biden win the 2020 election. However, it only led to a mere slap on the wrist for his son’s transgressions.…

We’re living in an historic era, one that will be written about extensively long after we’re gone. Unfortunately, our history might not be seen favorably. We may be seen as the generation that witnessed our government taken over while we slept. As we argue over gender and race, work less, and get high more, disavow our history, and allow others access to our children’s minds, a dark cabal has infiltrated our government, one that intends to fundamentally alter this nation into socialistic mediocrity. There is one man who has tried to do something about our malaise. But like most of us, he has faults; he’s brash and full of hubris; makes rude remarks; and has a checkered history. Because he’s successful, some people, evidently without fault, attack and ridicule him. They can’t see past the warts of a man who’s spent a lifetime committed to excellence, succeeding more than most, and possessing the wisdom of accomplishment. Of course, I’m talking about Donald Trump. He’s leading in all polls by a large margin, indicating he might be the Republican nominee. He’s also leading against the potential Democrat challengers. It would appear a majority of Americans would like to see Trump as their president again.…

The announcement the Professional Golf Association (PGA), the DP World Tour (Europe’s version of the PGA), and the LIV Tour are merging is not without precedent in professional sports. In 1903, the National League and the American League merged to form the North American Professional Baseball Organization. Up until then, they were two entirely independent organizations, and that merger has worked well. That doesn’t mean we have to like this merger in golf, details of which are still emerging, and still will a year from now. I have been an outspoken critic (imagine that?) of the LIV Tour and have more reason to be now.…

The other day I was listening to an album by a band you probably never heard of – Mason Profit. They put out a nice album in 1973 called Come & Gone . In the 70’s, neither me nor my friends listened much to the words as it was all about the sound – blazing guitars and booming drums. Mason Profit would have been considered more of the country rock genre, not rock ‘n roll. It would stand to reason if I hadn’t been paying much attention to the words, I was paying even less attention to the meaning of the words. As I now consider myself a writer, and words mean something to me, I missed half of the artistry of much of the music I loved. What got me thinking about this was a song on the Come and Gone album called Buffalo . The song itself is just okay, certainly not of the caliber of Two Hangmen or Everybody was Wrong . But this time, for the first time in 50 years, I listened to what they said, and I was astonished.…

The King of Beers No More 14:48

Recently, my wife and I were watching television when, lo and behold, a new Budweiser commercial appeared. If I were a beer drinker, and if I didn’t know the back story on the Budweiser issue, the commercial might have actually induced me to buy Budweiser beer. Some elaboration is in order. Budweiser has teamed up with the American icon, Harley Davidson, who is celebrating their 120 th anniversary with a limited edition can featuring the logos of both companies. After all, what is more American than Harley Davidson motorcycles? I used to think that about Budweiser until I shockingly discovered their parent company, Anheuser Busch, is a Belgian company. I have a problem with that as foreign entities are buying our country out from underneath us. I am in favor of a moratorium on foreign sales and putting back some protectionist policies, but that is a rant for another day. Anyway, with the original blueprints of both brands illustrated on the can, it’s an appealing package, particularly if you’re a macho “he-man” motorcycle enthusiast like me. In full disclosure, I prefer to drink American vodka and when I rode a motorcycle, it was an Indian, made by the American company Polaris. That should make me a Yankee-doodle-dandy. Methinks macho is just what Budweiser was targeting with their ad. It’s in response to the recent Bud Lite fiasco when an advertising executive, who is now on leave awaiting her canning, thought it a good idea to put a pervert’s face on a Bud Lite can to promote, evidently transgenderism. Consider the financial hit of Bud Lite and AB. Right now, AB is literally giving away Bud Lite by dropping the price of a case to $15, then offering $15 rebates. They’re doing this because they elected to buy back the beer that isn’t selling from their distributorships and, in my assessment, thought it better to give the beer away rather than pay for it to be hauled back to a warehouse for disposal. No word yet on what that is costing them. This past week, JP Morgan analysts stated that AB’s US earnings would fall 26% this year. They went on to state that the decline in sales is not expected to recover by the end of fiscal year in October of 2024. Now that’s a butt-kicking.…

Daniel Penny (24) is the Marine that put Jordan Neely (30) in a choke-hold, after Neely began threatening passengers on a New York subway, resulting in Neely’s death last week. Michael Byrd (56) is the Capitol Police Lt. who shot Ashli Babbitt (35) in the face after Babbitt tried to crawl through a window during the J6 protest, resulting in Babbitt’s death. Penny is being charged with second degree manslaughter. Byrd was exonerated and received no charges. A reasonable person might ask why our system of justice allows two different outcomes for similar events resulting in the death of another individual. Both Neely and Babbitt were involved in unlawful activities; Byrd and Penny moved to squelch their actions.…

Listeners of this podcast are aware I’m a huge Tucker Carlson fan. I recorded his show nightly to watch over coffee the following morning. I often used Carlson’s material as a source for some of my commentaries. Occasionally, he was the impetus behind the commentary. Carlson was unafraid to go up against politicians from both sides of the aisle, as well as the mainstream-propagandist media and those woke corporations who tried to flex their muscles. I thought so much of him I resigned a column in a newspaper over their slanted criticism of Carlson. So, I was shocked and upset when Fox News fired Carlson. It’s said Fox’s owner, Rupert Murdoch blamed him for the recent $787 million out-of-court settlement Fox reached with the Dominion Voting Systems libel case. Bonehead Biden is at again. What this time you are probably wondering. Might it be because against all polling, Biden has decided to run for president again? Evidently, he’s thinking he will pull that old “run from the basement” routine on us again, as it worked so well last time. Recall how the oldest man to ever run for president campaigned entirely from his basement and pulled in more votes than any other presidential candidate in history. Yeah, right.…

It comes up in conversation with friends and colleagues that people cannot recall America ever being so divided. The rancor is so bitter, which has not been seen in the lifetimes of people of our generation. A great deal of the rancor is no doubt due to Trump’s election. For reasons I’m unable to fathom, Trump is so divisive that there seems to be no middle ground of his likeability. I also believe Obama has some culpability with the divisiveness, rekindling the racial strife that seemingly had been waning before he took office. But there has to be more to it than just Trump or Obama. I’ve been searching for an answer because, being a staunch conservative, I sometimes wonder if I’m part of the problem. My heart and religious teachings tell me there has to be a common ground we can reach which will allow us to calm down and bring people closer together. After all, we’re all Americans.…
