Yeah, I'm thinking that the Pfizer execs and researchers need to be hung.

 Not only for the mRNA clot-shot, but for the kind of crap being discussed in a video caught by Project Veritas.

• Jordon Trishton Walker, Pfizer Director of Research and Development, Strategic Operations - mRNA Scientific Planner: “One of the things we're exploring is like, why don't we just mutate it [COVID] ourselves so we could create -- preemptively develop new vaccines, right? So, we have to do that. If we're gonna do that though, there's a risk of like, as you could imagine -- no one wants to be having a pharma company mutating f**king viruses.”

And let's not forget that pretty much everybody in the public health sector of the US Government is in bed with these people.  Little Fascist Fauci, the Mini-Mengele, made millions off of his Pfizer connections.

These people are evil.  Or as Dr. Malone says, they have no moral compass.

Jordon Walker: It's a revolving door for all government officials.

Undercover Journalist:  Wow.

Jordon Walker: Yeah, for any industry though. So in the pharma industry, all the government officials who review our drugs, mostly they come work for pharma companies. Like in the military, all the army and defense government officials eventually go work for the defense companies afterwards.

Undercover Journalist:  How do you feel about that revolving door?

Jordon Walker: It's pretty good for the industry to be honest.

These people have committed mass murder with the clot-shot.  And they're all in it together.

UPDATE:  Good Lord, this shit still doesn't stop.

The DoD just lavished EcoHealth Alliance — the nonprofit through which Warlord Fauci illicitly funded offshore gain-of-function coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology after the U.S. government shut down the domestic program over safety concerns — with a fresh $3 million contract to “reduce the threat of viral spillover from wildlife in the Philippines.”

I just can't keep up with the corruption.

How long till we start seeing commercials from law firms talking about myocarditis?

 

Ratzinger knew

 Pope Benedict XVI knew just how corrupt the church had gotten.  That's probably why the homopredator cabal made him step down.

When Pope Benedict XVI died on December 31 at the age of 95, it turns out that he had a completed book ready for publication upon his death. Written in Italian, that book, Che cos’è il Cristianesimo: Quasi un testamento spirituale (What Is Christianity: Almost a Spiritual Testament), is full of explosive revelations and trenchant criticism of his woke successor, Pope Francis. Could Pope Benedict begin a counter-revolution within the Roman Catholic Church from the grave? Stranger things have happened, although it would take any one of us a good while to think of one.

Plenty of people have laid out the problems within the Church; I know I've railed about it more than a couple of times.  Ann Barnhardt has written tomes of posts about the corruption in the Church.  In order to fix a problem you have to be able to identify it.  Well, this is like ripping the bandage off of a festering wound so that everyone can see it.

Bergoglio is the Antipope.  He's part of the homopredator cabal.  His boyfriend, Gustavo Vera, runs child prostitute rings in South America.  Bergoglio isn't going to fix shit, because he gladly worships Satan rather than God.

The only good thing I can point to is that we've had worse situations in the Church.  And Bergoglio isn't going to live forever.

Another day, another cartel killing in America.

 It's going to get worse.

In Mendota, about an hour from Goshen, MS-13 launched a “reign of terror” with at least 14 murders from 2015 to 2017. Before Joanna Soloria Maya could testify in a murder case, gang members hacked the woman to death and dumped her body outside an apartment complex. The victim’s sister Jannette told reporters that MS-13 was “killing people out there, like they are animals,” and it would continue because law enforcement “can’t stop it.”

Or won’t stop it. 

The cartels are making billions smuggling humans and drugs into America.  Do you really think the cartels are going to cross back over and say "Welp, that's the job.  Back home with us!"

Fuck no they won't.  And since the US Government refuses to do a damn thing about the border, and has refused to do anything about the border for decades, the cartels operate inside the USA as they will.

It's going to get far worse, until Americans are forced to defend themselves against drug cartels and the blood starts flowing.

It was never about stopping the Kung Flu

 It was about exerting control over a submissive population.

In hopes of containing the pandemic, everyone across the country was forced to suffer through lockdown orders, closed schools, and shuttered workplaces in the spring of 2020. In Democratic-controlled areas, many of these restrictions lingered into 2021. Yet they didn’t work. We all got COVID-19 anyway, more than a million Americans nonetheless died of the disease, and in a dark and ironic twist, most COVID-19 spread actually happened at home .

Meanwhile, those restrictions themselves evidently had deadly consequences. A new study from Casey B. Mulligan and Rob Arnett published in the journal Inquiry finds that non-COVID deaths were highly elevated above expected trends in the U.S. in 2020 and 2021. They report that over this period, approximately 97,000 Americans died annually (not including COVID deaths) above the baseline trend, a statistic known as “excess deaths.”

You could see the different reaction from states where the governors knew they might get lynched vs. the states who's Marxist masters knew they had nothing to fear from the proles.  It was never about stopping the Chinese man-made virus.  It was about controlling a population.  And it worked.  Look at what people did in New Fucking York or Michigan or California.  And then these same sheeple went and voted for more of it.

We'll see what happens when the next round of lockdowns gets announced.  And they WILL try to do it again, trust me on that.  

For Heroism

 Since P2 asked if I would share a little bit of the father-in-law's history.  I've blocked out most of his personal information.

A Shipwreck Tale: Absolutely NOT an Allegory!

I'm being lazy today.  Sorry.

TGIF

 I've been running for three weeks straight.  I'm going to sleep in tomorrow.  Make my lemon marmalade.  Drink coffee and smoke cigars and sit around in my pj's until it's time to go to bed again.

Vigilantism is what you get when you don't let the police do their jobs.

 Remember, Leftist:  The police don't exist to protect us from you,  They exist to protect you from us.

Regardless of the shot’s righteousness, this is another example of what happens when citizens feel they’re on their own. In Houston and El Paso, crime in Texas has run rampant, and the authorities are doing nothing to protect law-abiding citizens. So, again, citizens will protect themselves.

There’s no way this can end well. If the government doesn’t step up soon, we’ll start having the type of self-help we periodically see coming out of Africa or Latin America, where mobs beat suspected criminals to death or set them on fire. That’s a return to a pre-modern time that was bad enough the first time around.

Likewise, if crime continues to spiral with citizens left on their own, you can bet your bottom dollar that someone with totalitarian instincts will step in to “restore order.” At that point, you find yourself in the world Tacitus described: “They ravage, they slaughter, they seize by false pretenses, and all of this they hail as the construction of empire. And when in their wake nothing remains but a desert, they call that peace.”

The only time I don't go out armed these days is when I have to go on a Federal installation.  My retirement is beckoning and I'm not going to ruin that by getting busted with a gun on a military base.  Although my thoughts on that run to "Why the fuck do you trust me with a gun and then don't trust me with a gun?"  It makes no sense, but given the Marxist shitstains we have in senior "leadership" positions these days they're probably worried that someone in uniform is going to give them the ending they so deserve.

And speaking of Marxist shitstains, here's Antifa calling for more violence against cops after one of their little turds finally became a good commie.

Antifa staged violent protests (do they do any other kind?) to block the construction of a police facility in Atlanta. When cops attempted to clear them out, they opened fire, seriously wounding a cop. The cops returned fire and killed an antifa thug.

Now antifa is calling for "reciprocal violence."

All of these people will be out on bail faster than any January 6th grandmother arrested for "parading."

I'm willing to bet there's a lot of good 'ol boys down there loading magazines and giggling.  But as usual, the Democrat party isn't going to lift a finger against their street-level shock troops.  Of course not.  Antifa is a domestic terrorist organization in service to the Democrats, and so there's not one thing the government is going to do to corral them.

Until the fuck around with the wrong people and find out.  Which might happen in Georgia if the commie shitstains really push their luck.  Personally, I would make sure there's video of a backhoe digging one big mass grave, just to push the message home.

Following the science

 The actual science, not the dreck taught to us when we were kids in publik skool.

Throughout the late 1970s, Thaxton gave guest lectures at universities around the country in which he questioned the productivity of the current origin-of-life research program, including its variations on the theme of Darwin’s “warm little pond.” For example, he pointed out that only with significant intervention by the investigator could any of the experimentally replicated, hypothetical early-Earth environments actually yield biologically relevant molecules. Without intervention, interfering cross-reactions would prevent the desired molecules from forming. The prebiotic soup simply would not have been friendly to the evolution of life through abiogenesis.

You can't get something from nothing.

"Oh, but the Big Bang was the something!  All that energy!  Kaboom!"

Right.  And what was the cause of the big bang?  Where did all that matter come from?  What lit the fuse?  You can talk physics and quantum whatnot until you're blue in the face, but nobody can answer that basic question.  Where did it come from?  Because you cannot get something from nothing.

But you can't say "God" in publik skool these days.

But of COURSE China is involved

 That whole "Ban gas stoves" thing that the Left is pushing?  They're pushing it for China.

The green energy group behind a study cited in Consumer Product Safety commissioner Richard Trumka Jr.'s call to ban gas stoves has partnered with the Chinese government to implement an "economy-wide transformation" away from oil and gas.

Colorado-based nonprofit Rocky Mountain Institute, which published the December study that attributes 13 percent of U.S. childhood asthma cases to gas-stove use, is hardly staffed by an objective group of scientists.

I can remember back in the 80's when the Left was in love with the USSR, and I was told multiple times as a child by various leftists that the USSR was going to win the cold war.

Yeah.  Turns out not so much.

I think that the Left has glommed on to China because their primary Communist love is gone, and they needed a new Communist country to love.    Because every time we turn around the Left is bending over to suck China's cock.

In any case, anyone who's calling for banning gas stoves is an idiot first, and then a communist stooge second.

Cleaning up

 The father in law had a LOT of crap.

We held a "garage sale" yesterday.  We laid out all his effects and invited the family over to take what they wanted.  Mementos and what not.  I got some blades, a rather nice oil-skin coat and a few other things.  It was nice being around people who weren't greedy.  Nobody was pushing or shoving or demanding anything, they were just trying to find something they could keep as a reminder of who he was.

Shit tons of military stuff.  

Lots of canes.  Power tools.  With everything the inlaws wanted to give us, we should have driven the truck down instead of my little econobox.  The dogs are gonna be cramped on the way home.

I'm currently outside enjoying a cigar while the fam is inside watching a movie.  I needed a little space.  No post tomorrow as we'll be on the road all day.

Alice In Chains - Rooster (Official HD Video)

Reading through some of my FIL's award citations.  Dude was a bad ass.  Stone cold bad ass.

Driving again

 The father-in-law passed away in December.  It wasn't unexpected, he had been in poor health, both physically and mentally, for years.  So we're headed to the in-laws to help deal with the estate.  Separating out what's good from what is essentially rubbish (he was a bit of a hoarder), taking boxes to the thrift shops, and seeing what family wants to keep what items.

So yeah.  Gonna be gone for a bit.

Have I mentioned how much I love seeing Mr Fang-Fang get his commie-loving ass booted from whatever chair he was holding in congress?  I fucking love it.  And however I feel about McCarthy, I'm enjoying him pointing out that Mr Fang-Fang couldn't get a security clearance, so why the hell should he sit on the intel committee?

Feh.  Moar coffee.  Gotta drive.

Drooling Joe and his classified documents

 Is anyone shocked that Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants left classified shit just lying around?  Anyone?

And is anyone shocked that the fucking jack-booted Gestapo gave him the kiddy-glove treatment rather than the full Mar-a-Lago?

The only real satisfaction anyone on the right is going to get from this whole bullshit situation is watching someone throw Drooling Joe's words in the fact of his professional liar.  And can we admit that the professional liar we're speaking of is not only one of the most incompetent professional liars but also one of the dumbest.  Of course, that may just be due to who she works for, and also because of muh diversity.  Why did she get the job?  Because she's black and gay.  

That's it.  Kinda like why Mayor Pete Booty-judge got the job as Transportation Secretary.  He was gay.  That's it.  That's his entire list of qualifications for the job.  Hey, how's that working out for the country, eh?  Anyone enjoy their flight delays from yesterday?  But boy, Pete Booty-judge is laser focused on what really matters:  Language.

Fuck it.  I'm on day ten in a row and I'm fucking tired.  All I can do at this point is watch the shitshow unfold and buy more ammo.

Diversity is not a strength

 And tolerance is not a virtue.

When Sayfullo Saipov applied for his diversity visa, his name was likely checked (if the system was working properly, which it may not have been) against some databases of criminals and terrorists, and when he was found not to be listed, he was admitted into the country. No one would have dared question him about what he thought about Islam’s teachings of warfare against unbelievers; to have done so would have been “Islamophobic.” In fact, it’s unlikely that anyone who dealt with Saipov’s diversity visa application had any idea that such teachings exist, or that some modern-day Muslims take them quite seriously.

A "diversity" visa?  We're not a serious country.  And it will end up killing this country.  Hell, it already has.  We're all riding around on a corpse that hasn't fallen over yet.  It's all over but the shooting.

TOOL - Forty Six & 2 (Audio)

Represent

 

Blah.

 

The truth...

 

Fifteenth time is the charm

 McCarthy got his brass ring.

Look, McCarthy is pure establishment.  I don't like him.  He's been the minority leader while the GOP has been a feckless mess.  I hope that the concessions that actual conservatives wrung out of him help stop the bleeding, because if just get more of the status quo, ignoring the election fraud, allowing Democrats to commit any crimes they want while refusing to hold them accountable, go-along-to-get-along bullshit?  The GOP is already a house built on sand.  It used to have a bedrock foundation, but pathetic "leadership" like McCarthy ground that away to sand.  So if it's the status quo?  2024 is going to be another nothingburger as the voters are fucking TIRED of the McLeadership Failure Theater.

Fake news all the way down

 A bunch of "doctors" pushing the Covidiacy on Twitter were...  fake.  Fakity fake fake.

Last month, Dr. Robert Honeyman lost their sister to Covid. They wrote about it on Twitter and received dozens of condolences, over 4,000 retweets and 43,000 likes.

Exactly one month later, on Dec. 12, Honeyman wrote that another tragedy had befallen their family.

“Sad to announce that my husband has entered a coma after being in hospital with Covid. The doctor is unsure if he will come out,” they tweeted. “This year has been the toughest of my life losing my sister to this virus. This is the first time in my life I don’t see light at the end of the tunnel.”

Again, the condolences and well-wishes rolled in. But there was a problem: Honeyman wasn’t real.

Just like the narrative used to push the jab, everything and everyone pushing the jab and the panic porn and the fearmongering is and was bullshit.  Fake as hell.

Don't ever forget that.  The people pushing the jab do nothing but lie.

Round twelve?

I don't think it's going to make a difference.  Remember that old saying I posted yesterday?  Yeeeeeaaaaaaah.

Round twelve

I'm so damn tired

 But off I go to do this dance for another month.

Fuck, I need to retire.

And McCarthy still isn't speaker

 It's about time that someone sat him down and told him that he's not going to be it.  I'm getting the feeling that the days of "Oh it's your turn now" are over.

And Dan Crenshaw can go fuck himself.  Hey Dan?  Instead of insulting people and being a little bitch, why don't you try to figure out just who the hell could actually get the 218 votes?  Because it's looking like McCarthy ain't it.  

And can someone point me to something that McCarthy has actually done to deserve being speaker?  What legislative accomplishment happened?  What Democrat action did he block?  What has he done except hang around the longest?

I'm not saying he hasn't done anything but if he has I don't know about it.

Bah.  The longer this shitshow goes on, the less time they'll have to stab the GOP voting base in the back.  Again.

There's an oooooooold saying:  Be careful of the toes you step on today, because they might be attached to the ass you have to kiss tomorrow.  The way the 20 are acting, I'm guessing that McCarthy stepped on too many toes, and now it's coming back to bite him in the ass.  I don't know what interactions he's had with the 20 nay-sayers, but it probably wasn't good.

Oh, and when you're making a bid to be in charge, it would help if you didn't have a history of unmitigated failure.  The GOP voters are sick and tired of the status quo, and they don't think that the people who enforced the status quo are the same ones who might actually start fighting back for this country.

The Republican establishment that still believes they can manage voters’ expectations to maintain the status quo may want to do a reality check. The base had high expectations in 2022, and the elections did not meet those expectations. Many voters suspect that at least some establishment Republicans put a greater emphasis on ensuring that candidates tied to President Trump did not win than on winning back the Senate and a more significant majority in the House.

Then, the GOP members they did manage to elect voted to keep the wildly unpopular Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) as Senate Republican Leader. Then, with a RealClearPolitics average favorability rating of -33%, McConnell turned around and betrayed Republican voters by helping Democrats pass a $1.7 trillion Omnibus package along with 17 of his colleagues.

No one should be surprised that Republican voters are fed up. 

If you wanted to blame one single person for this clownshow, other than Kevin McCarthy, blame Mitch McConnell.  It was his push for the $1.7 trillion boondoggle that reminded Republican voters all over the country why they hate the so-called leadership of their party, and that said so-called "leadership" has hated them, ridiculed them and stabbed them in the back for years.  

McCarthy and the Speaker vote

 Dude has pissed off a few folks, eh?

There's a part of me that understands this is damaging to the GOP, but after what Mitch the DNC's Bitch did with the spending bill, I'd say the GOP is damaged goods anyway.  And there are people who now look at the GOP establishment and say "Fuck it, I'm done with you".  McCarthy is pure establishment.  

I don't have a problem with some members telling McCarthy to fuck off, but what's the plan?  Who do they want?  One name I heard, Jim Jordan, isn't running for Speaker and doesn't want the job.  So if you're not going to allow McCarthy in, who's the guy or gal you want?  Who do you have that can get the votes?  They haven't been able to answer that, which tells me that this is more about plain opposition to McCarthy than it is about strategy.  And that just doesn't fly in the real world.  That's cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Anyways, we'll see what happens today!

You first, shitstain

 Loony eco-freaks says kill humans to save the planet.

You first.  You suck-start that shotgun to save Mommy Gaia.  Because I'm tired of watching good people die due to Marxist idiots like you.

Moar F'n Snow

 Let me go shovel this shit some more.

Gotta go scrape the driveway again

 This shit is getting old.  

Didja see this bullshit?  Someone did a study comparing the effects of Monkeypox on men and women.  Only in the study, about half of the "women" were actually men.

Crap like this is why I laugh in people's faces when they blurt out "FOLLOW THE SCIENCES!!!!!!eleventy!!!!!"  You take men, you call them women, and then you say that the effects of the gay butt sex virus is the same in women and men.  Huh.  So that's "science" to people these days.

A study on monkeypox in women was published in The Lancet recently in which almost half of the cohort being studied were males who identify as women.

In the study published in the world-class medical journal on November 17, researchers analyzed data for a total of 136 individuals with the monkeypox virus infection across 15 countries. There were 62 “trans women,” 69 “cis” women, and 5 non-binary individuals who were grouped with the “cis” women to form a category of “people assigned female at birth.”

We know how the Monkeypox epidemic kept going:  Mass gay orgies where men would have unprotected sex with multiple random anonymous men over and over.  But rather than telling gay men to stop allowing anonymous men to fuck them up the ass without a condom, they've come up with the most ridiculous bullshit studies just so that gay men can have other gay men fuck them up the ass without even exchanging names first.

It's "science"!

Phaw.  The Left has managed to screw up the most basic shit.  I don't have a crystal ball, but I'm sure that 2023 is going to be a shitshow that makes 2022 look calm by comparison.

SSDD

 Same Shit, Different Day.

Anyone remember when the New Year came around and you spent about a week trying to not write the old year on your checks?

For any Millennials reading this, checks were what we used before debit cards.  Look 'em up.

The Pope is dead

 And the anti-pope holds the chair.  Brace yourselves.

Steel yourselves. The removal of the Restrainer in 2 Thessalonians 2 before the final advent of the Antichrist, whom Antipope Bergoglio has been and will no doubt continue preparing the way for, seems to be happening. The Pope qua Pope, Peter as the Vicar of Christ on Earth and visible head of the Church on Earth, is, for now, removed.

We have no idea how the Divine Providence will play out, but we do know with perfect confidence how the story ends, and who triumphs. And so, as we mourn the death of Pope Benedict XVI Ratzinger, and we gaze upon the See of Peter, vacant for the first time since April ARSH 2005, we can truly say and mean:

This is the LORD’S doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes.

Couple of tabs I've had open for a while

 And they tie together:  The Pentagon's Leadership Failure, and Woke and Broke US Army is now accepting recruits that it wouldn't touch a few years ago.

Let’s sum up the state of America’s military brass with one appalling comparison between how the admirals, generals, and civilian leaders chose to treat two different service members. One is a young naval officer, Lieutenant Ridge Alkonis, a family man who fell unconscious due to a medical condition while driving and accidentally killed two people in a tragic crash and was railroaded into a Japanese prison for three years. The other one is a creepy pervert who was an Army full colonel who put on puppy sex gear – yeah, that’s a thing – over his uniform in social media pics, and who maintained a litter of similarly bizarre subordinate soldiers/degenerate weirdos. 

Now, which one of these do you think our current military leadership is still paying?

You get a medal if you guessed Colonel Kink. Or a Milkbone, as the case may be.

The military's leadership has signaled for years who and what they were and what they wanted to do to the military.  Mark fucking Milley should have been tossed out on his ass when he put a racist diatribe on the recommended reading list and said he wanted to understand "White Rage".

Really?  You want to understand "White Rage"?  Here, let me break it down for you.  White Rage is what happens when one of the strongest, most trusted institutions in America gets turned into a woke social-justice experiment by corrupt piece of shit cocksucking politicians like Mark fucking Milley.

The woke "anti-domestic-radical" training that happened with Drooling Joe came in?  That was backed and supported by the military's so-called "leadership".  The fucking jab mandate?  Lloyd Austin, that fucking piece of talking shit, STILL thinks the jabs are needed.  I don't know how fucking retarded you can be, but Lloyd Austin constantly sinks to new lows in the retardation department.  But he's just another ass-kissing political worm and has been his entire career.  That's how he got his job.  Expecting Lloyd Austin to actually give a fuck about the troops is asking a pig to fly.  And that only happens with a sufficient amount of C4, which coincidently is exactly how I'd like Lloyd Austin to be ejected from the Pentagon.

So given that the military leadership is a pathetic shitshow of idiots, narcissists and corrupt political fuckstains, story number two should come as no big shock.

Being all uber-woke you can be has just about brought the Army to its knees. In this day and age, they’ve fallen so far down the rabbit hole anymore that they can’t get anyone who’s their normal target recruit to sign up to save their lives. Or anyone else’s, for that matter. Their recruiting numbers are dismal.

If someone asked me whether or not they should join the Army, I couldn't give them a yes right now.  I'd tell them to wait a couple of years and see how things shake out.  Why would I encourage anyone to join an organization where the leaders are unaccountable, back-stabbing bags of shit who only do what's politically convenient?  Why would I encourage anyone to join an organization that will throw you under the bus in order to get their stock portfolios to go up?  Why would I encourage anyone to join an organization who's top brass would leave Americans to die in a foreign country for political expediency?

I may have written about this already, but when I was Specialist Dave at Ft Riley, if someone lost a pair of NODs (Night Optical Devices, aka night vision) in the training area, that unit would STAY in the field until they were found.  And if the platoon or company couldn't find it, they would bring out the entire BATTALION and march them through the training area at double-arm interval until those NODs were found.

And in the end, if the NODs were not found, it was career over both for the Soldier who lost them, and his commander.

Mark fucking Milley left over 12,000 sets of NODs behind in Afghanistan when he ran away like the pathetic little fucking bitch he is.  Nobody has been held accountable for that.  Nobody lost their career.  Not one single "leader" has been called on the carpet for throwing away two decades of blood and sweat and tears.  The Taliban were using a US Army Blackhawk helicopter to dangle a corpse above Kabul.  A helicopter that we left behind in our mad rush to fuck things up even worse than anyone could imagine, and Mark fucking Milley was handing out awards last month to the commands who orchestrated that fuckup.  They got rewarded for their fuckup, and the people in charge all sit around doing one big circle jerk of ribbons and awards for each other.  Meanwhile, Soldiers who don't want to take an unapproved clot-shot get treated like shit and kicked out, or told that they're "extremists" for not wanting to read Mark fucking Milley's white rage book club, or demeaned for pointing out that taking in trannys, people with a 45% suicide rate whether they get their dicks chopped off or not, isn't going to help the military kill the enemy.

You think the young kids today don't see that?  You think all the vets and retirees watching don't see what's going on?  You think they're not telling their kids the very same thing I'm saying?  And keep in mind that military service is now a generational thing - kids join the military because someone in their family was in the military.  If those relatives are now saying "Hey, why don't you check out a trade school instead?" then those kids are probably going to listen.

At this point I'm of the opinion that almost every single flag officer needs to be handed their walking papers.  Bring in actual leaders.  Get the politics out of the military, or watch the military continue to fail.  Got forbid we get into a hot war with China.  The 69th Intersectional Dildo Brigade ain't gonna do diddly-squat against people who actually train how to fight. (Thank you Big Country for that little nugget of laughs)  

Gah.  Other than firing everyone in charge right now I don't have a whole lot of answers.  I'm glad I'm retiring now, before Drooling Joe's puppet masters fumblefuck us into a shooting war either with Russia or China or God knows who.  

The winter storm

 Some thoughts on what's going on in parts of the country.

In the late 1970s and early 80s I lived in such a part of the country, near a big lake.  There was no fuel injection; our cars had carburetors. By then we had advanced to the point that the choke was electric and "set" itself when it was cold with a slight press of the pedal.  There was no electric fuel pump; it was driven by the engine.  You got in the car, pumped the pedal once or twice so the accelerator pump would squirt the raw gas in the carb bowl into the intake, pressed it slightly one last time and released to make sure the choke was set and turned the key.  If you did it right for the conditions and your battery was in decent shape the car would start, often firing on two or three cylinders originally and running extremely rough for the first few seconds until the rest of them lit up.  If you got it wrong and flooded it you were screwed as there was insufficient battery power to keep cranking for very long, and if you left a discharged battery out in that cold it was very likely to freeze and split.  Thus if the car failed to start you better either be able to get an immediate jump or have the tools to remove said battery and bring it inside so it wouldn't freeze!

I didn't have a garage; that was a luxury and I had no money.  I was a young man.  I had to park outside.  After said car started you cleared the snow off (frequently a foot deep) and then you had to wait until the engine warmed up enough that you had cabin heat.  Not for yourself; you had on a winter parka and long underwear under your pants but rather for the defroster because if you didn't wait the first time you exhaled your breath would freeze on the INSIDE of the windshield and you couldn't see a damned thing.

Phones were connected with wires and the closest one required a quarter to be deposited in the slot and was probably 10 or more miles away once you got in said car and started driving.  There was a zero chance of you reaching it if you got out in 0F conditions and attempted to hike that; you were dead if you tried that stunt.  If you went off the road and into the piled-high snow, often by February 10' in height on both sides of said road, that had been previously removed from said road by twin-augur snowthrowers on the front of a dump truck filled with sand you'd be lucky if someone realized that hole was made by a car and the car is still in there; there was no way to call for help so your only hope was another vehicle that noticed as if wherever you were going called in your lack of arrival figuring out where you balled it up in those conditions was not going to be easy.  You were quite carful to not have that happen because if it did they'd probably find your dead body in April.  The mailboxes on said roads were hung on tall cantilevered chain rigs that would swing out of the way when hit because otherwise the first time said snow removal device came by it would destroy the mailbox.

You never went anywhere without good (ski-style) gloves in the winter months either on your hands or in the car, and you never went anywhere in the winter months without adequate clothing which included a thick knit hat for your head, gloves and emergency supplies in the vehicle, including plenty of blankets or other means of keeping warm (I was a broke young man so a pile of blankets it was; I didn't have money for a cold-rated sleeping bag/bivvy sack), a source of minor heat (e.g. a candle and means of lighting it), and a small tin or other similar thing plus a set of road flares so IF you were off the road you could lay a trail TO YOU from the road and increase the odds someone driving by would see it, especially at night -- assuming you could walk between the points, that is, which was by no means reasonably assured as there were no such things as airbags either so if you crashed odds were high you were BADLY hurt.  Why the candle and plenty of matches?  The candle wasn't for heat for you; it was to melt snow in said tin so you could drink it without killing yourself via hypothermia, and the means of keeping warm without energy was so if you had a mechanical breakdown and could not use the engine for heat, or had an extended problem and ran out of gas you didn't die.

He goes on.  Do go read the whole thing.

I would note that several of the people who died up near Buffalo died of carbon monoxide poisoning.  That means that they were running their car to keep the heat on, but they didn't clear the snow away from their tailpipe and the exhaust fumes came right back into the car.

Good times make soft men.

Both the wife and I have emergency supplies in our vehicles.  We grew up in colder climates.  We understood that snow and cold could kill you dead, and you had better be prepared.  Every winter you went through a list of things that needed to happen if you got stuck, and one of those things was that you got out of your car and dug out your tailpipe, so that if you needed to run the car you weren't sucking on your own exhaust fumes.  Apparently that little tidbit of information hasn't made it down to later generations.

I don't have any answers.  All I have is my own knowledge, and my attempts to pass it along.  But I'm willing to bet that many of those people died because of their lack of preparation and their lack of knowledge.

Oh, I'm pretty sure I know the reason the FDA said Ivermectin couldn't be used

 Despite all the evidence that ivermectin worked, the FDA did everything in its power to stop people from using it.

In a meta-analysis of 63 studies of ivermectin versus COVID-19 in humans, 100% of these have shown positive results.  Studies were from all continents except Antarctica.  Considered individually, 29 of those studies were found to be statistically significant regarding use of ivermectin alone.   Over the 63 studies in meta-analysis, pooled effects showed 69% improvement in early treatment, and prophylactic use showed 86% improvement.   Of those studies in the meta-analysis that were peer-reviewed, overall improvement in early treatment was found to be 70% (64% in randomized controlled trials), and 86% of those in which ivermectin was used prophylactically showed improvement (84% in randomized controlled trials).

Mortality from COVID-19 over all time periods of delay in treatment was 76% improved over controls (69% in randomized controlled trials), whereas mortality was improved 84% in early treatment of COVID-19 (82% in randomized controlled trials).  Forty studies were excluded from the meta-analysis for complicating factors or insufficient detail reported, and these also showed 100% positive results.

Guess what would have NOT happened if the FDA had admitted that Ivermectin works?  Right.  The jabs would NOT have been given an Emergency Use Authorization, because in order to get the EUA, there cannot be any other effective treatment available.  So the FDA had to demonize Ivermectin in order to issue the EUA for the clot-shot.

The clot-shot that is currently causing all kinds of "death by suddenly".  The jab that made lots of people in the government rich.

The shot is satanic, and the people who pushed it are Satan's minions.  Ivermectin works, the government knew, and they lied about it.

More Twitter files

 Twitter was banning doctors who quoted the CDC in order to push a political narrative.

But look, you knew this.  You're not dumb.  You knew that at the very least, Twitter was helping the government push their narrative.  Perhaps we didn't know the extent that the government was pushing directly, or how deep the FBI was buried in Twitter to make sure only the "correct" things got said, but you KNEW, deep down in your bones, that Twitter was censoring free speech.  When the government narrative and every social media platform is all parroting the same song, you know it's bullshit.

Which turns us to every other social media platform.  If Twitter was censoring speech for the government, what was happening in Google and YouTube and Fecesbook and Instagram and Reddit and aaaaaall the platforms who helped enforce the narrative?

I think you know.

The true meaning of Christmas

 Is getting a varmint rifle, and then being able to nail the raccoon that's been tearing up your mom's barn.

Because if it weren't for mom wanting that damn varmint done with, I would have never gotten the rifle.  So there we are.  One dead coon.

I'll be leaving the rifle for my dad to use in my absence.  But damn that's a nice gun.

Merry Christmas, everyone

 Christmas,  Christ's Mass.  Cristus Missas.  Remember the Reason for the Season.  Gather your loved ones 'round you and enjoy their company.  Eat much, laugh long, love a lot.

I'll be doing the same.

Is there any Democrat who doesn't cuddle up to pedos and child rapists?

 Because right now, all answers point to "No".

The $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill has $1 million earmarked for renovations for KidsPeace, a Pennsylvania nonprofit Wild represented in a 2005 lawsuit filed by a former patient who was anally raped by a counselor. Wild, who requested funding for KidsPeace earlier this year, argued in the lawsuit that KidsPeace should not be on the hook for a settlement payout to the patient because the rape was a "medical incident" that should be covered by its insurance plan, the Washington Free Beacon reported. She said KidsPeace did not have a "crystal ball" to prevent the counselor's "malfeasance," though the counselor was charged years earlier in the suffocation death of a 12-year-old patient.

At this point, if your baby sitter identifies as a Democrat you'd better watch them like a hawk.  I can't think of any Democrat group that doesn't want to either have sex with children or kill them in the womb.

And yeah, internet is still out.  Phone hotspot.

Internet out

 So the internet at the house here has gone tits up.  Which means I'm using my phone as a hot-spot, and as anyone knows that sucks, performance-wise.

Blogging gonna be light for a bit.

Early Christmas present to myself

 Mom:  Now if I could only do something with those *&^$% racoons...

Me:  Shoot 'em.  

Mom:  With what?

Me:  Small caliber something or other.  You don't need a big gun.

Mom:  I have a 22 pistol....

Me:  Meh.  22 Mag would be better.

Mom:  22 what now?

Me:  22 Magnum.  Same caliber, bigger casing, more omph.  One shot one kill on varmints.

Mom:  Well, I know a gun shop....

Long story short:  Rossi 22 Mag for $200 (it was on sale, $80 off), scope (also on sale for a HUUUUUUUUUGE discount), scope rings and ammo today.  Grand total, around $400.

I'm gonna sight it in and then see if I can nail me some varmints in the barn.

Get your popcorn ready

 Gonna be some fireworks down in AZ.

Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake’s lawsuit against Maricopa County will go to trial, a judge ruled late Monday.

Lake filed the lawsuit December 9, alleging that “hundreds of thousands of illegal ballots infected” the Nov. 8 election and led to Hobbs being declared the winner, and “contains more than 270 exhibits of evidence.” Lake’s suit also relies on expert witness testimony.

I want a bloodbath.  I want heads on pikes.  I want people in jail for their crimes on election day.

I want a reckoning.

The last time the RNC sent me a fundraising letter

 was a loooong time ago.  And I took that letter, whipped out a Sharpie, and wrote in big bold letters:

"NOT ONE DIME UNTIL BOEHNER AND MCCONNELL ARE GONE"

Then I put it in their envelope and mailed it to them.  And yeah, Boehner was still in the House, so that tells you how long ago that was.

But the backstabbing shitstain McConnell is still there, and once again he's selling out the GOP's voters and surrendering pre-emptively to the Democrats.

Republican voters have a right to be angry at this. The status quo is being maintained everywhere, from the Senate to the RNC. Past failures are being ignored, future ones are being instituted, and it’s quickly becoming pointless to even support the GOP.

At this point, McConnell must have photos of people in compromising situations, because I cannot think of a RNC politician that is as hated by the GOP voters as McConnell who maintains his position of power.  And because he's maintaining his power, he keeps other two-faced backstabbing shitstains like Murkowski in power as well.

And I'm still not sending one dime to the RNC.  In fact, I'm thinking that the RNC needs to go the way of the Whig party, and let people who actually care about America and represent their voters take the RNC's place.  

Lazy day today

 Woke up to a rooster crowing.  Made breakfast for the family.  Took my dad to the library to pick up a book, and the local library has a shop where they sell their older books at discount price.  Two bucks for a hard cover book.  Since I've had to give away books at every PCS, I'm anxious to rebuild my library, and when I find a book I want I buy it and put it on a shelf.  Since I'm coming back here anyways when I retire, I figure it's a good way to start my new personal library.

Lots of good discussions with my father.  Those are priceless at this moment.  You couldn't pay me to step away from them for all the gold on the earth.  I regret that I didn't realize this decades earlier in life.

Found a bottle of Irish whisky that my mom called "sinful" for being so good.  That's a win.

Made my version of beef stew for dinner.  My mom wants me to teach her how to make it.  Another win.

Sometimes you just have to slow down and enjoy life.  I'm trying to do that right now.

Drove all day

 I'm safe in friendly territory, with a cigar in hand and whiskey in a glass.

Lots of snow up North.  Like....  lots.  I drove about 150 miles at 45mph due to a little storm.

Let the holidays commence.  I'll post, but I won't post much.

At this point, I'm just adding posts like this to serve as a database of how badly the jab is hurting people

And it's not good.  This is a doctor, discussing the number of cases of vaccine injury he and his colleagues have seen.

When the vaccines came to market, one concern I had around their entire rollout (it was very eery) was that a few years after the mRNA vaccines came to the market, they would become significantly more deadly and this was a fear I kept in the back of my mind as I watched the rollout occur. Likewise if a delayed toxicity were to be the greatest issue, there would still be significant adverse events in the most sensitive members of the population (which as you know has happened). The delayed toxicity has begun to emerge and at this point I can see the following possible explanations for the increasing rate of death we are observing:

I know of at least two people who got the jab and were unable to move the next morning.  Literally unable to move their legs.  Body locked up tight.  And their employers (one private, one military) said "Too fucking bad, get the second shot or get fucked and lose your job."

There will be an accounting, in this world or the next.  I've said it multiple times, but it's the accounting in the next world that keeps me from bringing it in this world.  God's judgement is going to be far worse than anything I could do.

Any new news?

 I was on my feet from 0730 to 1800 yesterday, got home in time to grab the wife and run off to a friend's house for whiskey and cigars, then woke up early so I could head out again.

I see that Elon Musk is releasing even more files that show the Fucking Bastards of Ignominy were essentially running who got banned from Twitter.  I repeat my call that every three-letter agency in D.C. needs to go.

Trump sold some NFT trading cards of him drawn rather cartoonishly.  Not a good look.  I saw a video of Steve Bannon saying whoever convinced him to do that needs to be fired immediately.  And Steve Bannon is about as hard-core a Trump guy as you can find, so this isn't some squishy RINO bitch saying it.

Speaking of squishy RINO bitches, is there any political establishment who hates its voters more than the GOP?  

And is there worse political leadership than the GOP at this point?  I've had a couple tabs open on my browser for a while relating to the bullshit election in Arizona.  Fraud and Corruption.  The 2022 Arizona election fraud.  The fraud and corruption are so bad, so in-your-face, that the only people still trying to deny it are the ones who benefit from it.

So why the hell isn't the GOP out there fighting like mad?

To ask the question is to answer it, I guess.  RINOs don't benefit from people who put America first and actually stand on their principles.

Anyways - gotta run.

UPDATE:  Blogging without adequate coffee results in spelling mistakes.  Just so ya know.

Up and out early again

 I don't even have any funny memes for you.  Maybe when I get back tonight....

Four days in a row

 We got significant amounts of snow four days in a row.  That's me shoveling four days in a row.  And I don't just do my walkway, I do both my neighbor's as well.

My back hurts.  My shoulders hurt.  I'm about to buy a damn snowblower if this shit keeps up.  I've shoveled more snow in the past thirty days than I did all last year.

I don't know how many times we can say "I told you so" to the covidiots.

 But let's do it again.

…regarding data Moderna submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, which indicate a “statistically significant” number of rats were born with skeletal deformations after their mothers were injected with the vaccine. The documents also reveal Moderna elected not to conduct a number of standard pharmacological studies on the laboratory test animals.

The jab is not safe.  It was never safe.  It was never effective.  Every claim made to push the jab was a lie, and they knew it was a lie and they pushed it anyways.

And plenty of us out here were saying so from day one.

Stole these from 90 Miles

Because, well.....  yeah.

 

People do stupid shit in the cold when it counts

 So the Alaska National Guard brought Santa to a town, in -25 degree wind chill.  That's pretty damn cool.

Children in a small community in northern Alaska were so delighted for a visit by Santa that they braved wind chills of 25 degrees below zero just to see him.

When I lived in Wisconsin, there was a Christmas Train that came through the town every year.  Normally around the weekend right before Christmas.  The goal was to have people donate food, and you would bring non-perishables to the train tracks when the train came through.  They always, ALWAYS had a band in one of the train cars, and you would have an impromptu concert right there in the middle of the street before everybody would hand their food over and fill up the train with more food than you could count.

Honestly, it was awesome.  The band hand to deal with cold all the way along the route, and they would still rock it.  We would all stand out in below zero temps just to watch a ten minute concert and load food into a train car.  I have no idea how a guitarist could play dealing with that extended period of cold, and I have a small idea of how so many people could stand outside in temperatures that would freeze meat rock solid for an hour waiting for that ten minute concert.  But it happened.  

It gives me hope for humanity.

Daddy issues

 So I'm dealing with a few organizations that claim to be fraternal.  Two-wheeled organizations.  Brotherhood and all that shit.

Fucking daddy issues is what it is.

I won't name the groups because I just don't want to deal with the fucking drama.  But holy crap, people.  I've never seen so many grown adults transform into whiny, snot-nosed babies so fucking quickly.

When I was stationed in Virginia, I was asked by an MC to be a prospect.  I spent one night hanging out with them.  In that one night I had to try to keep one person from going off the rails and spent two hours outside in the winter night watching over my buddy who was talking down a drunk from essentially fucking his life up beyond repair.

Needless to say I didn't go back.

I think I like life as an introvert far better.

Moar snow

 What the hell, man?

Oh well, at least the mountains are getting snow.  That'll help during the summer.  But it won't be enough to stop the usual mid-wits from screeching about climate change.

And we got more snow

 If you'll pardon me, I'm going to suck down coffee and then go shovel three walkways.

We've gotten more snow in the past thirty days than we got all of last year.
