Biden hearts china

On his first day, President Biden put our nation at  unacceptable risk when he dealt a blow to the energy industry. The consequence of which means we will once again be dependent on petroleum from foreign and hostile countries. But in this case, it’s a Two-for. It also gives Canada a poke in the eye to their economy too. Brilliant geopolitical move by President Biden.

“Alberta Premier Jason Kenney said in a different statement that he urged Trudeau to tell Biden that “rescinding the Keystone XL border crossing permit would damage the Canada-US bilateral relationship.”

To refresh your memory, Under President Jimmy Carter, The ‘Department of Energy’ was instituted on August 4, 1977. Its purpose was to lessen U.S. dependence on foreign oil. During Carter’s malaise there were long lines for gas at the gas stations. Prices were high.

Today, and for a few years, China owns and or operates both sides of the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal.  Given the cozy relationship the Biden family has with Communist China, I’m sure Joe doesn’t see how that could be a problem.

So what difference at this point does it make? It doesn’t take a genius to see the consequences of such a move, given the ever increasing presence and pressure from China wanting to rule the world.

The United States is the largest user of the canal; the second-largest is China. Approximately 60 percent of all the cargo that passes through the Panama Canal either originates in or is destined for the United States.

Losing thousands of good paying and mostly union jobs, and an industry, while making us vulnerable to Communist China, is not looking out for America and our interests. 

So whenever China wanted, they can choke the U.S. right out of product, including fuel. The alternate route is around South America. But Hunter is doing OK, and the environmentalist wackos are celebrating. Biden family first, America Last.

Media incites assassination?

One can’t deny the unifying power of President Trump. Even when he doesn’t try.

Democrats, including their candidate for Vice President, have weighed in on the use of force and violence. They’re really in tune (in their own mind) on threats of this nature. For example . . .

Now, eight days before Biden’s inauguration, the media writes about “Targeting A President” in a story about “impeaching” President Trump. A title like “Impeaching A President” just doesn’t do enough for them. We know what Democrats and the Media, but I repeat myself, mean to convey by wording like this. Politically speaking,  there’s not much difference between a bulls-eye and target. One marks the target, the other is the target. For example, remember how they reacted to a Sarah Palin add about congressional district races, ie. Gabby Giffords?

Parties reversed, Democrat leaders would call this a dog whistle to assassinate the President. But they’re not. Giving the Sharpshooter Wing (any wackjob with a gun looking for an excuse) of the Democrat Party the green light. 

Here’s the Front Page of the local, shrinking, newspaper.

Oh the depth and breadth of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Without even trying, President Trump has unified the Democrat Party in supporting violence against their political opposition. Up to and including assassination. 

Note: Currently, Google returns 50 million hits on “democrats target trump.”

U.S. MARINES, Happy 245th Birthday

On November 10, 1775, the Second Continental Congress meeting in Philadelphia passed a resolution stating that “two Battalions of Marines be raised” for service as landing forces with the fleet. This resolution established the Continental Marines and marked the birth date of the United States Marine Corps. Serving on land and at sea, these first Marines distinguished themselves in a number of important operations, including their first amphibious raid into the Bahamas in March 1776, under the command of Captain (later Major) Samuel Nicholas.

The founding of the Marines in November 1775 during the times of the Second Continental Congress was to shut down the Barbary Pirates of Northern Africa who were pirating merchant ships, stealing the cargo and killing the crews in the Mediterranean Sea. As the Marine anthem goes “From the Halls of Montezuma To the Shores of Tripoli…” They were formed to protect shipping from pirates at first. Then grew into a force that can protect our country at home and abroad.

Happy Birthday Marines Corps. God Bless you and your families for your service and sacrifices, keeping us safe, secure, and free.

33.1% gdp, Pelosi claims credit

Nancy Pelosi, guest on a Bloomberg TV show, about the huge 33% GDP 3rd Quarter numbers.

“Does that make you think that we may not need another stimulus as much as we thought we did?”
 
PELOSI: No. In fact, it is proof that we need the stimulus even more so. The reason we had a good — a better third quarter is because what we did in the CARES Act and the subsequent legislation for PPP that put money into the economy. That’s gonna wear off, and we need another infusion.”
 
With no shame, Pelosi claims credit for the 33% increase in GDP 3Q. She also claimed that it required their wish list of COVID relief that has nothing to do with COVID.
 
Makes you wonder how much better the numbers would have been if New York, California, New Jersey, Hawaii, and a few other Blue states had participated? 
 
During the relatively flat 2% +or- GDP years of the Obama/Biden administration, we suffered two stimulus packages that did more for labor unions than the economy. No effect to GDP.
 
Truth is, Democrats are never satisfied, and can never be satisfied, when it comes to growing the size of government and government spending. That’s why they call it investing. Sounds better to the dumb masses.

Bobulinski blackout

“Tony Bobulinski, former business associate of Hunter Biden, addresses media in Nashville, Tenn. ahead of second presidential debate.”
 
And by “media,” only FOX News covered it live or reported it.
 
Here’s where the media is today. Well, aside from being the PR Department for the Democrat Party. For over three years, they have been reporting nothing but Trump/Russia collusion in trying to rig the election to favor Trump. Which was proven to be a lie. And they still carry it on today, a la Rep. Adam BullSchiff.
 
And today, when there is a real live participant (that would be like a real whistleblower), who wants to publicly set the record straight, the same media will NOT cover it. Which arguably could be considered an attempt to rig THIS election.

Ukraine, the Bidens, and corruption

The Ukraine government held a press conference on “international corruption and external governance of Ukraine.” The hour-long video includes recorded phone conversations between Joe Biden and Ukrainian officials. It necessarily includes Barisma and other corrupt Ukranian companies, including Hunter Biden, Joe Biden, and their participation. 

It lays out how Ukranian money left Ukraine for Hunter Biden and his shadow businesses and partners. It also accuses the U.S. Treasury Dept swamp of trying to stop this Ukranian official from releasing their findings.

Ukranian investigators want to talk to Joe and Hunter Biden about it, in Ukraine, under oath. How’s that for a way to end a campaign?

Bank out of change

Have you tried buying change at the bank lately?  They’re rationing whatever they have because they can’t get any from the Federal Reserve Bank in Mobile.  This probably doesn’t mean much if you don’t own a business, or you have a business that doesn’t deal in cash.

Quarters, for example, come in a box of 50 rolls. Knowing about this shortage, I tried to buy ten rolls instead of the usual box. She gave me two rolls. Try making change when there isn’t any. 

Below is a letter addressed to our State representatives and President Trump.

First of all, thank you for your service and representation. I am appealing to you for a solution to a problem I thought, as a small business owner, I would never have to deal with. I’m asking you because this is a Federal issue. 

I don’t know if is a national problem or just in NW Florida, but I can not get enough coin change from our Regions Bank in Pensacola. They tell me that the Federal Reserve Bank in Mobile, where they get their change from, is closed. Something to do with COVID-19. I don’t know if that’s the case, but that’s what I’m told.

I understand that, by law, a bank can not be closed for more than three days. So I was not concerned about not getting change for our business. But this has gone on for two weeks with no end in sight.

This is a problem. A big problem. And not a peep about it in the news, so I’m proud to be the one to tell you that the problem exists. Please find a way to solve this problem.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

2016 Election, Politics

That’s their story

On the four years of so-called Trump/Russia Collusion to beat Hillary Clinton:

“We apologize for being wrong on this story from the beginning,” said no Democrat politician or media personality ever.

And the media won’t say they were lied to by the Obama administration. Because they were participants.

. . . and they’re sticking to it.

Putin’s Puppets

60 Minutes reports that Russia’s goal is to sow discord and division in and about our country. Ironic that they don’t credit Democrats and the media for doing Putin’s bidding.

Former FBI spy-hunter Robert Anderson says Russia’s goals today are the same as in the Soviet era: to sow discord in the U.S. and doubt about our democracy around the world.
