Let's start with the border. What the fuck are we doing? Why is this happening? Illegals or undocumented--the semantics don't matter. Stop with the distractions. Some of them are coming in and beating up police, raping women and nobody's doing anything about it. Not all, but some. Enough to wreak havoc. Bottom line is they must be vetted.
I want to say that the most kind, hard-working people I have met are from Central America and Mexico. My neighbor’s housekeeper who is from Honduras, has been here for 15 years and wants to get her green card and I am trying to assist her with the help of my husband who is an attorney. People like her, who follow the law and are so hard-working, should be able to get a green card.
I think most people who come whether legally or illegally want a better life. The law is so murky here and just allowing people to cross without checking their criminal status is dangerous for all involved. Telling people from other countries they will not only have no problem crossing but will be given money and more perks is disastrous. So many have died on the voyage over including young children. It’s as if we are luring them here. How is that a good thing any way you look at it? Then some of the undocumented are getting put up at the Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan…
Seriously? How is this actually happening? From the internet—“Migrants are raking in $3,000 a month as they work illegally as delivery drivers and send their kids to local schools while living in NYC's luxurious Roosevelt Hotel. NYC has taken in at least 95,000 migrants just this year. The Roosevelt Hotel has become a hub for registering new asylum seekers. Many of the men staying at the shelters are making thousands delivering food.” I would do the same if I were from a country like Honduras. I’m not picking on Honduras as thousands are fleeing from all over Central America, Mexico and even China—the latter of which deserves its own post.
Next sucker topic—trans women. Now let me make clear, I am all for trans rights. That said, allowing men who say they are women so that they can get into a woman's prison because all they have to do is say they're a woman to get in is like allowing a kid into a candy store. On a lesser scale they get to go into women's locker rooms and compete as female athletes because they couldn't make it in the men's division. Boo hoo. Notice how it’s not the other way around? Then the least egregious of all is in restrooms where I have personally witnessed a trans woman peeping into a stall. Disgusting.
Next topic—Covid bullshit. Not allowing people to go outside to the beach or to the park with their kids without masking? More suckerdome. I just made that word up thank you. Not allowing people to have activities outside during the pandemic, when getting vitamin D, fresh air and exercise would have been the BEST things you could do, is insane. People going along with it even more so.
Not permitting people to get together to worship or for get-togethers OUTSIDE where there were exactly ZERO cases of the virus being transmitted outdoors—insane. I need a better word. Lunacy. Yet allowing BLM protesters out whenever and wherever they wanted to, maskless? How stupid do they think we are? Apparently extraordinarily stupid. How are people not seeing this? Even really intelligent people that I know just don't see what's going on. It's the most bizarre thing I've ever witnessed in my life.
I think I understand how totalitarianism happens now. We are not there yet--yet being the operative word. It's diabolically brilliant. They make us get accustomed to things slowly. Getting used to having our individual rights taken away by having mandates all in the name of for our "safety" is a fantastic strategy.
And the award for most egregious of suckerdome is this new term called minor attracted persons. WTF? Pedophiles pure and simple. Then there are the furries. These furry conventions are beyond…
Who said Texas was too conservative?
How about this one--you can't use cash in a lot of places now. They say it's because cash is vulnerable to loss and theft. Yeah right. Isn't there something called electronic hacking? So digital currency is going to dominate if not obliterate cash. That’s how it’s going to go guys—I mean people;)
It's true criminal enterprises thrive on cash currency but what about when you want to go to a hotel room with someone and not be tracked? That's not me but just saying. What's a cheater to do? Again not advocating, just pointing it out. Personal privacy supersedes the government saying it’s for our safety and that they need to know all about our sexual activities, political leanings and contributions, medical conditions, what alcohol you consume, if you vape and the list goes on.
There are those who are too far conspiracied out and I get it. Not every single thing is a conspiracy, however, a lot more of these theories are true than most people think. I think people want to believe that their respective governments want the best for them and I so wish that were true but it’s just not.
Power is powerful. It even holds true for the door guy at a club. Remember the Stanford Prison Experiment? It was a simulation of a prison environment. Volunteers were selected to be "guards" and given uniforms specifically to de-individuate “prisoners” and they were instructed to prevent prisoners from escaping. “We wanted to see what the psychological effects were of becoming a prisoner or prison guard. To do this, we decided to set up a simulated prison and then carefully note the effects of this institution on the behavior of all those within its walls. We concluded that people will readily and quickly conform to the role that is expected of them, particularly if these are heavily stereotyped, such as a prison guard.” Essentially the guards became real assholes. Power can alter human behavior dramatically.
Epstein Island is a great conspiracy that proved to be true. People thought that was the most ridiculous thing they ever heard. It was too far out there to believe this Epstein guy took young girls and hooked them up with rich, powerful men and then recorded them in compromising situations and then could use this against them. Case in point—“Jeffrey Epstein reportedly had an oil painting of former US president Bill Clinton dressed in women's clothing conspicuously displayed in his Manhattan townhouse.” It is believed he was doing some kind of a role play with some barely 18 year old. If someone still thinks Bill Clinton is a saint, they are a moron. Don’t get me started with the Clinton Foundation. Again, I would have to devote an entire post to that. Also I don’t want to get suicided.
This is so beyond Left and Right politics. This is about being lied to by all politicians. Right now the Democrat Party is the party that is worse. However, all you have to do is look back to Iraq with the weapons of mass destruction, all of the lies, and guess what—everyone just forgot all about it. They keep getting away with it.
Get the vaccine! It stops transmission. No actually get the vaccine and maybe have a heart attack or get Guillain-Barre syndrome. No one is held accountable. No one.
The point is it doesn't matter which party it is, it’s that the people in power want to retain and increase that power. I'm not sure what it's going to take to wake people up but I do think they are starting to. Some people anyway. Not until it affects their personal lives will people start to really get it. When you pay $25 for a cantaloupe— somethings awry.
Tulsi Gabbard is an outstanding exception to this. She started as a Democrat and look what happened. She was the Vice Chair of the DNC and she came to realize what was going on. And what did they do? They lambasted her with all kinds of accusations about being a Russian spy operative. They said that she was disloyal. People like Mitt Romney and Hillary Clinton, who have never spent any time in the military kept reiterating these lies about her. I have particular disdain for Hillary and remember having to drive my friend’s car that had a bumper sticker that said “I’m With Her” and it was all I could do to not rip it off. Again, how are intelligent people not seeing this?
Hillary is a war-monger plain and simple. A really intelligent war monger who is a very gifted orator. Vince Foster anyone? Libya? From Hillary herself—“I have no regret about Libya. The intervention didn’t go according to plan but that wouldn’t have changed my actions.” She could use a shot of empathy. Wow!
Tulsi Gabbard has spent over 20 something years in the military, serving her country, and they come out with his bullshit about her because it doesn't go along with the narrative that keeps them in power. This is a disgrace. And by the way, if you are disloyal, and you are in the military, the punishment is death. And when Tulsi Gabbard spoke out and asked Romney to further explain his assertion that she was a Russian operative, he declined to answer. I wonder why that is.
I wish people would get off their stupid teams and open their eyes. This is not about Right and Left. It's about people in power. When you have power you can get away with so much. Why do you think Nancy Pelosi and all these congressmen are able to engage in insider trading with zero ramifications? “The annual compensation for most Senators, Representatives, Delegates, and the Resident Commissioner from Puerto Rico is $174,000.” Interesting as they are all multimillionaires. Why? You know why.
This should be an absolute 100% no go yet no one talks about it. This is all of Congress not just Left or Right so stop thinking in those terms. It's so tired. It's time that we as a people open our eyes and see what's going on. They want us to be more at eachother’s throats than to see what is really going on. Distraction, slowly introducing legislation which erodes our rights, saying everything is racist, sexist or whatever to keep you from speaking out—all of this is a ploy to keep the ones in power in control. It’s not about Right and Left. Get out of the echo chamber and into thinking critically. If not, we are doomed.
Now it's time for TOTD. Brush your dogs every day if possible. This makes a huge difference! If you don't have a dog, get one. Get any pet. They are the best! The love you get is truly unconditional and people with dogs (cats etc. too) live longer and happier lives!
Lastly, I am trying to monetize my Substack because I really enjoy writing and would like to make some money doing it. I heard about this new site called buymeacoffee.com. It’s like a tip jar of sorts. So I’m giving it a go. Click on the button below if you feel like giving me some love…Thanks everybody! #wereallyaresuckers
Hey Kristy! TOTD is Tip of the Day. Citizens United was a terrible decision. Also I'm voting for Kennedy! 💕
Great stuff. I’m listening to it in the car and laughing in agreement.
