The Decider

(Click here)

I am sure many are thrilled with the “idea” of the first woman chief of staff. 

Really?

Look what she did.

She used megabucks to elect the president that cast women into being second class citizens.

Why would a woman do that? 

Because she is a loser, too. 

She was practically banned from any power position in Republican politics a couple decades ago. So, she first found a man to create a consulting firm. She was then decided on after 10 years of consulting work to be “good enough” to become a MAGA loyalist and be enamored by Trump. No surprise there. 

She was fired by DeSantis in his campaign because she was considered Trump’s spy. So, Donald bought her back to run this campaign. She is now “The Decider” for an aging Trump.

This is the way it is going to be and the MAGA jerks will practice chronic politics. Every decision and focus will be for the purpose of politics. 

While on the subject, who in the Democratic Party is going to run in 2028? That process and the ones ambitious enough need to be vocal to counter all the violence that will accompany this presidency.

Currently, Trump is coming up with plans to begin his round up of people to either deport, imprison, or kill. Someone with plenty of security guard protection that will be running in 2028 needs to speak against every adverse decision that further controls our democracy as Trump steers it into oblivion. 

There has to be someone. Someone men identify with and will become loyal to in recognizing the poison to our democracy that is Trump.

The “Citizens United” decision ruined the USA democracy.

That Supreme Court decision was made by judges owned by a religious right extremist group, the Federalist Society. It is a completely incompetent decision for a democracy. 

This is a no brainer.

Example: Musk, in all his eccentric ideology was promised the moon by the MAGA jerks and he went for it. He gathered up all the money he could from his companies and set himself on a path to help himself to unfettered treasury money without regulation. 

WHO CAN COMPETE? 

A democracy is based on a level playing field for all candidates. We even set aside monies allocated through a simple question on federal tax returns and even that measure is scoffed at now 

Musk bought himself a president so he could obtain USA treasury wealth. He doesn’t want NASA regardless of the helping hand they provided. Musk could not have been the least bit successful without NASA and now they are getting in the way of his plutocratic ideological dreamscape. NASA no longer sees the moon as a realistic goal and sees Mars a more viable stepping off point to interstellar.

That is where the space agency should have its focus.

The idea that Musk could be outspent to buy candidates is idiotic ideology that removes democracy from the people. That is the truth. It is now witnessed as the truth. Unfortunately, the people are too blind to see it and now they are stuck with losers at the top of the USA government.

Trump won with other people’s wealth.

This is absolutely the problem, besides the macho propaganda. The Plutocrats, at the federal level for president and senate can buy whatever candidate is willing to do their bidding. Donald John Trump is the loser of the century and what were his other options? He had none.

First the Plutocrats’ greed ruined the country.

Now they came to empty the USA Treasury and kill the people. 

That earmarked trillion for COVID should go to pay the federal debt to SSI.

Musk is going to defund the government.

My understanding is that there is a trillion US earmarked for COVID-19 that was never spent. He will be sure a huge chunk of it ends up in Space X.

He took an enormous amount of money out of his companies this year. He is going to refund his treasuries and it’s ours. 

Again? This time he is a convicted criminal?

Everyone I talk to is shaking their heads with an expression of disbelief. The outcome of this election is not a minor issue and those concerned won’t just go away.

The FBI needs to conduct an election integrity investigation. See, if AI corrupted the election, it would not be obvious. It would be like taking a penny from a million dollars. It is virtually undetectable if noticed at all. So, for every electronic ballot recorded there could be a micro fragment of a vote cast. The microfragments then create a vote without a citizen attached to it.

No one would have to present an ID or prove their citizenship. The vote would belong to no one. It would just be in the tabulation.

There is something wrong. I don’t know what it is, but, 8 years apart two highly qualified attorneys ran for the office of President of the United States of America, and lost to the same idiot. It is time we get to the bottom of it. 

Someone needs to pick up where Mueller left off. He never finished his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Maybe a retired agent would be interested in a hobby.

SDNY and the New York AG has his financial records. He is guilty of enormous fraud. That reality can’t be erased by an inauguration either.

In some states Kamala was deprived electoral college votes because of third party candidates like Jill Stein. Third party candidates did a lot of damage to Kamala.

The Secretaries of State need to do their work.

No matter the seat in this election, I would not concede any election until the electoral college convenes. I have a suspicion there is something wrong and the Secretaries of State need to scrutinize the outcomes to every election in their state.

I really hate AI. 

It just doesn’t smell right.

The polling data is very different than the outcomes. I can understand if it was a marginal difference that swung one way or the other, but, these election differences don’t reflect a tight race that was consistent among all the innumerable polling services.

Sometimes covering up meddling with million dollar tickets make things understandable. Just sayin’.

This is only one poll. All the others looked very similar. They all can’t be that wrong.

This is ridiculous.

Even this early look at the popular vote vs. the percentage of the vote that yields three electoral votes. Like? What?

The Electoral College makes voters feel as if their vote doesn’t matter when it comes to deciding a president.

Trump isn’t winning marginal states, the third party candidates are winning it for him. 

I wanted to share my journal.

It really is quite nice. It is leather. If I am going to have a journal in my hands everyday I want it to feel comfortable and familiar. It ties shut, has pockets inside for miscellaneous items as well as two slots where I keep excellent writing pens.

It was a gift from my sister before I went to Iceland and eventually to the Juneau icefields. I rather like this journal and I can get new books for it as I fill one after another.

The FBI stated today any warnings about terrorist activity at polling sites are bogus. The FBI never issued such warnings. All those bogus warnings are legally terroristic threats and should be reported to State Bureaus of Investigation. 

Propaganda

The communists like to maintain “group think.” It provides a basis for government action whether it is valid or not. It is the method Trump media and his minions use to attempt control over government. 

The way it works is rather simple. The evil genius will look across the people he wants to control for a certain outcome and customize a theme to a topic based in that fear. A simple example of that is fear of lead in water. Why not harness that fear along with a long standing hate of established government and raise fear of fluoride in water? Then there will be people compelled to vote for the one candidate that believes fluoride should be banned from water. 

Or, embrace a wacko cult like QAnon. Why not? After all, eventually the USA will be nothing but an evangelical paradise, so, that takes care of Q.

Then there is the seduction of wealth. Hence, Musk hands out Halloween candy in the way of $1 million winners at his political rallies.

I suppose some people would think unethical political practices are okay to justify the end. To me? That is playing unwitting voters for fools, especially when it will end badly for them in the long run. That kind of Steve Bannon politics is nothing but insulting to my intelligence.

What happens with “knee jerk” policy making?

Flint.

Be prepared to end any state of emergency Trump may declare upon entering office. If President Biden sees no reason for a national state of emergency, the reason Trump would institute one is for the power, no valid reason.

If I was president and wanted to declare a national state of emergency, hated every minority in the USA, and was a religious bigot; I’d declare the emergency at the southern border. That would give the president the right to order a round up anyone be felt was a threat and deport and/or imprison them. Texas has a lot of room for big internment camps.

Putin turned terrorist.

Did you see that in the news? Russia’s Putin took a page out of bin Laden’s playbook. He has plans of sending explosives through DHL into jets flying into the Free World.

He was found out. No surprise that he was found out. 

DHL is a magnificent cargo company.

Hello?

The politics of fear.

Trump is making all sorts of radical statements and promises in order to

attract voters after his media and minions have driven deep seated fear into their audience.

Should he be given a second term the best approach is to oppose or some like the word resist ANYTHING that comes out of the White House. Those measures will be based in hysteria, basically.

Trump’s carrying on can be called fear, but, fear is something one experiences for real danger. Even the worst slasher movies are about unexpected alarm leaving a feeling of wow I won’t go into a motel for the next hundred years (thinking about the Bates Motel).

Trump creates hysteria. It is fear based in urgency. That is not realistic at all in the USA. Federal and state policies have always been grounded in reality and research.

So, if one is voting with feelings of anxiety, fear, or dread; I encourage a step back from those feelings, a deep breath, and a return to calm before making serious decisions. I am not saying to immediately change your mind, but, only to make those decisions well, rationally, and with a degree of calmness that gives a sense of happiness at the decisions made.

Happy voting.

Fluoride in water.

There is no sound proof that fluoride in drinking water in the USA at 0.7 mg per liter will cause any harm to people. The standard has existed since 1945. The American people are well. The research that has been done and peer reviewed has only moderate confidence on the findings.

The issue is with international standards that are more than double of the USA standard. This concern is in relation to pregnant women and the effect on infants when exposed to higher levels in water. The international standards are recommendations and have been lowered. Some countries are still administering amounts that could easily be adjusted down without causing harm.

The ideas surrounding all these complaints about ESTABLISHED standards is more politics than any valid concern. No one should be signing a presidential executive order the first day in office to ban fluoride in drinking water.

The best approach to changing long standing policy when it comes to health in the USA is to hand the question to the National Institutes of Health and require research to validate the health benefits and any adverse effects if they exist. To completely disrupt a long held health practice in this country is extremely irresponsible and dangerous.

Internationally if the USA is recording adverse outcomes from higher levels of fluoride in the drinking water it can make strong recommendations through the UN and/or the World Health Organization. 

Kennedy and Trump’s point of view is too extreme and if enacted needs immediate lawsuits to stop it until more is known about the important well being of the American people. Their approach is marred with unfounded fear.

There is simply no solid research to

cite for this blog post. Thank you for your kind attention.

Debt relief won’t come under Trump.

(Click here)

Why is there such a difference between Democratic and Trump budgets? Come on you know this. Who receives the greatest relief under Democrats? The Middle Class. What happens when the Middle Class does well? The revenue to the Treasury increases. What happens when the revenue increases? There is less of a deficit to add to the national debt, AND,…AND…come on you know this…AND important programs like Social Security, Medicare, and funding to the USA military is safe.

What is going to happen when President Harris passes her programs? Who will benefit the most? Yes, the Middle Class and Lower Middle Class. They will move up in income and benefits contributing to the USA Treasury revenue as well as their own financial security and the American Dream. 

WHERE DOES THE FUTURE OF THE PEOPLE OF THIS WONDERFUL COUNTRY LOOK MOST PROMISING? 

You know this in your heart.

President Kamala Harris.

Volkswagen

I believe it’s Chattanooga plant is gearing up to build EVs. It looks like a really tough vehicle. It is called the “Scout.” It is expensive, but, what vehicle these days aren’t. Looking forward to have the Scout roll if that assembly line. Thank you, Chattanooga.

Concrete

It is only as good as the land it sits on. It is not a replacement for a mountain. Trees will grow through it, crack it, and render it useless. 

The land has to be stable.

It is dangerous business.

I imagine folks think it sounds silly that a mountain can be unstable, but, there was a lot of disruption to those mountains when tons and tons of wind and gravity driven water came out of the sky.

Water is heavy. I was in the thick of it when the periphery of Floyd hit Wilmington, North Carolina. Floyd returned Wilmington to its former island status, but, Floyd was nothing like Helene. The water came out of the sky and buckled my knees when I first waded into 18 inches of flood waters to begin to move all the vehicles the family owned. The weight of the water from above is what buckled my knees not the still flooding waters.

To realize the level of devastation by Helene is to understand what water can do to an entire region of the country. I have been in those mountains and they were beautiful and the people as well. It is hard to write these things, but, many people died and I dearly don’t want to have it happen again.

The CEOs from IT can take a piece of ownership of the mine. They need to take an interest. The country is supplying its best people to do all the heavy lifting. The Army Corp is the best and they are ready. There is no waiting with their readiness.

Let’s do this thing!

The Army Corp needs to concentrate on the mine.

It appears this area may have the highest death toll and the residents know it is going to be a difficult and long term recovery of bodies.

The woman in the video appears to have become a community organizer. She is wonderful. Very frustrated, but, that is completely understandable. The National Guard is invaluable in this area.

The big concern for national security is the silica mine. She speaks to it. The problem is whether or not the area can be made safe and stable to continue the mine operation. The IT industry needs to supply much needed monies to assist in the recovery of this area and especially the mine. It is okay if CEOs are heroes this time. The country has its hands full already. The IT guys can probably assist in assessing the instability in the area in working with the Army Corps maps and expertise.
