Greetings from Tyler,
The State of the Union was last night, I didn’t watch. I waited for the aftermath, and it’s all over the map. Apparently the pretender needed to prove he was “with it.” That might have been a strategic error. His own Department of Justice just concluded that he was too elderly to be held accountable to the evidence they have, so he just knocked their theory into a cocked hat. No doubt he played up his elderly-ness in the interview we’ll never see, and must have been convincing. But that’s all in the past now. Apparently the pretender acquitted himself reasonably well. How, is another question.
There’s a phone conference circling the globe that was never supposed to see the light of day. In it German generals are conferring about how to bomb the bridge to Crimea. Other things got discussed that were not ready for prime time. But now it’s out. The Russians intercepted and released it. Putin already knows. It threatens to erupt into a scandal, but everybody’s afraid to talk about it.
The farce of equipping Ukraine to fight Russia on the pretext of preventing a full-scale European war is wearing thin. France has training grounds, and is putting them to use. Maybe I’m wrong, but it seems to me the specter of you know who becoming president again hangs over most everything. Not to get too political, but when has the leader of a powerful nation not been important?
Another scandal broke this week. They’re flying “vetted” foreigners all over the country, but couldn’t tell anyone. It might compromise the safety of the migrants! It’s a free-for-all in Haiti. Crimes we dare not imagine are being committed. That’s one of the places they’re flying in from, all properly vetted, we’re sure. They can commit crimes hand over fist, it’s almost accepted. You better not get in their way. What are you, prejudiced?
The crime wave has already begun. You see snippets of it on the news, but that’s not the half of it. We’ll probably never know the extent of immigrant crime. The authorities are making sure we don’t. Are they going to have to impose martial law to protect Americans from the immigrants? They’ve already got the National Guard checking bags in the New York subway. Are we all going to have to submit to humiliating “checks” to go somewhere? It’s already happening.
I hope feelings are not running as hot as the comments on news sites. The news media keeps playing along as if everything is normal, and people know nothing is normal. Much is being made of Biden’s “black eyes” and there’s a lot of speculation. None good. The mainstream is touting the speech as having been “fiery.” That teleprompter really told us off.
We still have no idea how many times, or with who-all we’ve been compromised. The family business takes precedence, and it’s none of our business. The first son walked out of his deposition looking confident. But there are problems. One of them was confirming that Daddy is the big guy. Other witnesses have been interviewed, and there are some…contradictions.
For days they’ve been touting a cease-fire in the Israel-Gaza war. Meanwhile… Things are not going too well between the pretender and Netanyahu. “It’s disproportionate!” the critics cry about the Israeli response. I hope you don’t have I-24 news, it’ll break your heart. Listening to the anguish of close family members of the hostages, or those murdered on October 7 may not be good for your peace of mind. Israel it seems, doesn’t want this to happen again, ever. All the diplomatic pressure in the world can’t penetrate the anger and the grief they must feel. U. S. diplomats have no idea, certainly Biden hasn’t a clue.
