People Grow Up!

A face photo would be best. But, this is pure hatred. Have they ever featured Trump as a swindler?  I can. That is definitely Trump as a swindler.




This is only one reasons this administration is great.

Cities are heat islands for several reasons, but, a large contributing factor is concrete. There is a focus that is taking place about concrete sidewalks that is also a health emergency.

Literally, people are falling on concrete sidewalks and getting burned because the surface is 130 F. These burns, no different than other burns, can be life threatening. 

The high tech solution would be to set a sidewalk surface that is heat resistant on top of refrigerator coils. This type of adaptation can be noted in cities with high snow fall and the danger of icey sidewalks, only it is heat coils.

A solution like that takes time to develop, is very expensive, and requires energy. In order for such a system to work without burning fossil fuels it has to powered by wind turbines. These specialized turbines can be small, as tall as 3 to 4 feet and installed all alone by the walkway. The turbines will work, 24-7 and 365 days of the year.

Grants like these empower change and save lives. I am very proud of the hard work the Biden administration has provided all these years. And, as Joe would say, “But, the work isn’t done.”

Indeed.


Misogyny will not be tolerated!

Yes, that is exactly what that is. Nowhere will anyone ever read Keep Calm, Trump headlining an email from “USA Today.”

Memes by the public can be cruel but they don’t need help from a major USA newspaper. Honestly. The last thing I expected today was a slight of Vice President Harris.

ANOTHER THING!

Women are not men and they approach communication differently. They tend to be more gregarious and spontaneous. That isn’t going to change because some bozo newsman or newswoman thinks a woman should be more like a man to lead this country.

So, it is a new standard “you all” are going to have to meet to come close to providing the best possible coverage of a magnificent public official.

Kamala Harris has had decades of experience in leading people, making informed and educated decisions, being an advocate, and FINDING justice for those who never thought they would ever see it.

And, by the way, if she starts to find white hairs on her head due to the stress involved in the highest office in the land, she’ll probably have it colored. That is common practice among women, in case no one but Wall Street noticed.

She has to make her case to the American people,

(Click here)

If Kamala is the party’s choice, she has a wide array of incredibly talented governor’s to be her VP. Some are Red State Governors, like Roy Cooper. North Carolina loves him.

But, this race is the make or break moment for women, their right to health care, equal pay, and the right to decide their own path forward. 

This is a tough race, but, an important one. She needs to let the people know she can take on the presidency with a fantastic cabinet that can help her make that case. Equality is still a huge issue and no one is claiming that territory except her.



I think the President made the right choice.

It is going to be very exciting to see the next generation find the best footing for Democrats.

This, of course, releases all President Biden’s convention delegates free to elect a different nominee. It may take more than one ballot as favorite daughters and sons are nominated. It wil prove to be a very good convention.

So where is the solution?

Society has to reverse engineer its “heat island” infrastructure. The simplest, easiest, and cheapest way is to get rid of the concrete and plant trees along the dirt sidewalks.

High heels will have to be carried in a bag along with the wing tips. What do people care if it resolves the heat island effect of the cities?

There is nothing to know.

I thought I read where the gunman’s father had called the local police about a missing son and missing gun. That was about 100 miles away.

Look, this is the new normal in the USA. A person gets angry about something he picks up a weapon of war and sets out to kill people.

Why should Trump be different than all the other gun violence victims? There is just so much that can be done. Why Las Vegas? Why Buffalo? Why Sandy Hook? Why do any senseless murders happen in the USA?

This was Trump. It gets noticed. How many more murders or shootings happened?

Could additional measures been taken? Sure, there are always measures that can be taken. This 20 year old came out of nowhere. It is time the gun toters reassess where gun ownership is headed besides profits of sales.

If Trump is going to insist on holding outdoor rallies where people are not pre-cleared to attend and magnetometers can’t regulate rooftop assailants, then more will occur. 

Voter registration and encouragement to vote happens at the local level with volunteers that believe in the mission. There are right ways and wrong ways to go about things. If Trump insisted on his way or the highway this is the risk he takes.

My understanding was that the gunman was searching presidential candidates to kill, including President Biden. Why did he settle in Trump? Because Trump was getable.



So Earth’s moon is made of Swiss Cheese.

(Click here)

It might explain why the Luna Landers are sinking into oblivion and why there are moonquakes that threaten the very satellite that orbits delicately around Earth. 

There is no place in a responsible society for exploration of Earth’s moon experiencing quakes. Recently, NASA scrapped still yet another lunar lander that was supposed to explore for ice there. It was the right thing to do. 

This clearly demonstrates that a spacial void is a very delicate organism that requires much more fact finding than Americans have done. 

Mining Earth’s moon is extremely irresponsible. Moons are not planets and this one orbits our only home. 

The absolute proof of the very delicate nature of space is realized in the ease of NASA to move asteroids to a different trajectory than being on the path to colliding with Earth. It didn’t take a hydrogen bomb to achieve it. Not at all. 

Childhood fantasy needs to be set aside in the stark realty of facts. Venture capitalists have been known to make bad investments and need to eat their losses. Additionally, sacrificing one human life to the solar wind is a gross disrespect for life at all.



The Blue Angels at the National Cherry Festival.

It isn’t the best photo in the world, but, these men and women are incredible in their handling of our aircraft.

I am glad this video loaded. This is four of them in an inverted dive. They are flying upside down while diving at high speed. There ain’t nothing they can’t do with a machine.


This is tree top flying around the periphery of a small bay. They were fantastic and fearless. It was delightful and reassuring to witness their precision flying the beginning of July.

They came into town, too. Some had families. They would go over to the midway at the festival. It was good to see them out and about enjoying themselves.




Any American journalist still in Russia doesn’t value their own life.

Russia will never have freedom the way the USA does. There is nothing more to know of Russian society or government. 

Evan, in this picture is dying a slow death. It is by design and without respect for human life. This is recreation for Putin. Evan isn’t even given the presence of his lawyer.

Americans need to go home. They are not wanted in Russia.

The war is not proceeding well (click here
) so Putin gets satisfaction in other ways. Contrary to media reports to diminish Biden’s appeal, Russia has loses.

I strongly encourage Western journalists to go home. There is nothing more to learn here. Evan’s life is in the hands of the diplomats.

Monitors

The Democrats have to be prepared to monitor the election in all aspects of the presidential balloting right down the ballot to county clerk. I sincerely believe there is a great deal of corruption that has taken place in these last four years among Republicans.

There is a reason former Secretary Raffensperger is no longer in office in Georgia. He was removed because the Republicans are the last party on Earth that wants a good and honest man making decisions who lives up to his oath of office.

The “Game of 2020” is still in play. While Vice President Harris will be ruling in the Electoral College, the Republicans will proceed to attempt to disrupt and change “the vote” should a Democrat win in November.

Prosecuting wrong doers have meant nothing to the MAGA party, except, to elect a president that remains as corrupt as they see him in order to set those in jail and prison free. Trump is what they believe is their justified liberator. That includes hard core racists who are known to be dangerous men. After they dust themselves off, pick up their bump stock guns, then what? Are they going to be changed men or determined men with their own militias?

These deeply strange problems still exist. Now, through inauguration will be a rough road for the country.

I think Pat Ryan has the most sincere statement.

Joe promised he would only run for one term. I realize the geography is a little scary right now, but, there is a promise to be kept. Others have been preparing during these four years. There are many capable people in the Democratic Party to lead this country. The American people are looking for a capable leader who has confidence in those he lead. I think Joe has to consider those many Democrats that were looking forward to running for president. 

President Biden needs to open his mind and his heart to others in the party that feel differently and may even be hurt by Joe’s broken promise.

The Fight Club

I just don’t know why.

Everything according to MAGA is a fight. Next to “That’s unfair,” “fight” has to be a staple in their very vocabulary right next to Amen.

Ya see, Trump is constantly surrendering. He surrenders to China, Russia, and North Korea without a doubt. So, where is the fight?

The best I can tell, the MAGA fight is domestic. We are Trump’s enemies. It is the only fight that makes sense. If Orban is your best friend internationally and he is using Trump to dismantle the USA democracy in the name of PEACE, then the fight certainly isn’t an international focus. The Fight Club of JD and DT is about hate and every other American that isn’t MAGA.

(Click here)

Poor Donald. Life is so unfair.

You have got to be joking. Trump described his encounter with a bullet? He is completely self-absorbed. How many people can’t tell their stories about gun violence. At least one fireman can’t. How many people have PTSD because of gun violence? And instead of discussing gun control, he wants to divide the country and inspire violence as he did on January 6th. How deeply does he hate this country?

He wants vengeance against anyone in the near vicinity because he can’t have vengeance against his would be assassin. Tough to fight a dead man.

Trump is dangerous. He beholding to no one. He used all the RNC money to get this point and now he has what he wants. Everyone is willing to lie for him and do what it takes to put him in office. Trump answers to no one from this point on and everyone answers to him. We have a real problem. No one is standing up to him because he is in control and viewed as a sympathetic figure. What a mess he has created. 




Do Republicans want to solve problems ..

…or make them worse?




The Homophobe Party

I think this is a valid opinion, but, there is a little more to it. 

Vance is no threat to Trump. He is nearly old enough to be president under the constitution. Vance is 39 and the constitution requires 35 years of age. So, from a political standpoint Trump is reaching out to younger generations.

But, Vance is a populous candidate that is mostly wet behind the ears. He is also a social climber, probably from his upbringing , because, “Poor, White, Trash,” as the south calls them will seek to use charisma and sexuality as a method of lifting themselves out of poverty.

However, Vance has a storyline that is mostly notable in the Democratic Party. Hard work, taking education to the level of personal achievement, getting into a profession that mostly allows autonomy in income and financial security, and them wasting no time to move into politics. That is an unusual identity for the golf club/Mar-a-logo types. The RNC is dominated by the elite. So, while, yes, the soul of the USA is on the line this election, this is a paradigm shift for the Republicans, too. 

But, Vance also marketed himself to
The populist he is today and that is attractive to Trump. I would not be surprised if Trump recommended writing that book and making the movie to turn heads in this election. Vance is like the WWF when it comes to voting for the American poor. They have champions, not professions that pay well.

The immaturity of Vance to even qualify as a Vice Presidential candidate is obvious and quite frankly is a worry if such events occur. Vance graduated from Yale, a magnificent university, but, the Yale Grad is more traditionally thought of as a liberal Democrat. The one reason to be a Republican is the potential to a quicker assent to power. A what a quick rise it was.

I sincerely believe he is too immature for the job. He is not qualified to be Vice President, but, neither is Trump to be president, so the two do compliment each other in regard to the voters they attract. I really do believe this pair of candidates are a worry. But, as the opinion below states, they are also racist isolationist that rather destroy the USA since the Mayflower, than relish it.





President Biden

Axios is reporting President Biden could be resigning his presidency, especially with his latest exposure to COVID. 

Joseph R. Biden will be admired no matter his decision. He didn’t have to come out of retirement in order to save the USA from a second term of Trump. That will never be ignored by history. Joe Biden, his great faith in God, and his ability to overcome life’s trials will always be ranked among the great presidents of this country. There are no character flaws.

There are many things the Biden Administration has accomplished that others didn’t, especially with his diverse Cabinet.

Look, Joe, you haven’t really had a real retirement with the beautiful First Lady Jill. I think they both deserve the retirement that was cut short by the country’s need four years ago. 

I trust President Biden above many other politicians in this country and I will trust his decision this time, too.

Water is too warm for the fish. The eagles will look for prey where they find it. This is still another negative feed back loop from the climate crisis.

Cops at RNC convention killed an unhoused man.

Get used to that. Between Trump and his Supreme Court, Americans will be dying on a regular basis. If a person is unhoused and sleeps in the open without permission that means they are utilizing public or private land. The Supremes are saying the unhoused don’t have rights to utilize any property. That type of trespass can be a legal problem. Basically, the unhoused have to keep moving on public thoroughfares. They won’t be tolerated to sleep on the road either.

There will be encampments to protect the common good, followed by riots when they are torn down, the rioters will be killed, and the land left barren. 

This will become the new normal for the unhoused, veteran or no veteran.

To understand Trump’s ill will against the people, realize he and his cohorts are ideologues that plan and currently are dismantling the governments, definitely federal and in some cases, the states. He and those he trusts want the country to be claimed by pilgrims that were here before the Revolutionary War. Governors of the 13 COLONIES were land owners. That also translated into practice during and after the Revolutionary War. Their goal is to never have public land.

Senator Menendez has overstayed his welcome.

(Click here)

Senator Menendez a brush with these issues before and was able to prove the charges to be wrong. Now, he has gone further to be big and bold. He even involved his wife’s reputation whose hearing is on hold. 

It is time for him to go. The DNC did well in this and nominated a new, fresh face to replace Menendez.
