Weekly Update

Greetings from Tyler,

Can things not slow down at all? Nancy Pelosi thought it appropriate to risk China’s wrath and has been hailed for doing so. She seemed to sing a tune that’s not exactly in line with official foreign policy. But as National Security Spokesman John Kirby said, she’s going to do whatever she wants. The ominous threats various China officials were making might have made her think twice, but she went anyway. The purpose of her trip remains a little murky.

Now China is conducting war games and firing off missiles, threatening by intimidation. But Taiwan purportedly produces nearly all the chips that power everything from common devices to automobile systems. You’d think we’d repatriate all that. Chinese officials undoubtedly possess ruinous information, but why use it? Well, maybe use it as leverage, but what could be better than a hapless old codger that is told what to say by Obama’s people? From the Chinese perspective, of course.

Odd isn’t it, that America’s foreign policy challenges are occurring at the center of corruption we’re not supposed to know about? No doubt the arms producers are gleeful that the old inventory is being expended and they must produce the new version of everything for our own military. We hope that’s what they’re doing.

Oohh, they’ve almost got him this time! Having seen a clip or two from channels that are not welcome at my place, they’re salivating over the prospective criminal charges threatening the former President. What was he doing in private on January 6? The cable networks have legal analysts, including the infamous Jeffrey Toobin, who are just sure, “The Walls are Closing In.” Sounds like a rerun from two and three years ago. Oh wait. The same culprits were saying these same things two and three years ago! It was Russian Collusion and two impeachments, and he survived much to the chagrin of the establishment.

They’re going to make a criminal out of Donald Trump if it’s the last thing they do. If they charge him with a crime, that makes all his supporters accessories. They must hate him in a way we don’t quite understand. But maybe there’s more to it. The liberals are always associating fear with hate, and they might be scared. The house-cleaning should have happened last time, but it didn’t. It’s been published that Trump is planning a second term and is already making plans to do just that. That’s probably why the legal experts are making dire predictions.

How many years ago was it that the mainstream began to equate fear with hate? They took to calling us all homophobes when no one was scared. It’s not even a word, but when has that ever slowed down an angry weirdo? We’ve been going along, keeping our heads down as every mainstream product and service preached this stuff. They just might have overplayed their hand. Several of the wokest of the big concerns are falling in value, they’re laying off employees. Maybe we don’t have to stick our heads up, maybe they’ll just fall out of favor and go broke. We can only hope.

It seems the government is not about to back off the global warming kick, or whatever they’re calling it these days. The European institutions are all pious about saving the planet. They’ve just got to get us to OBEY, and everything will be fine. We only hope they live long enough to realize what buffoons they are. Meanwhile, we’re not buying.

Neither Russia or China are bought into any of this nonsense. Nor are they “doing their part” to help with the cause. You might be interested in the video put out by the Russian ambassador to Spain, “Time to move to Russia.” It brags that Russia has good food (doubtful), cheap and plentiful gas and water, and don’t forget beautiful women. It may be satire or a spoof. But it’s a sad day when Russia can gloat about so much that we’ve lost. Europe, more so.

We’re probably all going to get drug through the laptop from Hades, ready or not. The status quo is too rickety for something not to go awry. The pretender is in isolation once again. He’s got us all wondering why we didn’t get double vaxxed and boosted. We hope for his speedy recovery. We wouldn’t want him to miss what’s coming down the tracks. The Lord works in mysterious ways.

Mark
