Thursday Motes, Whew…

Mother Nature is pizzzed: An unknown number of orcas have sunk a yacht after ramming it in Moroccan waters in the strait of Gibraltar, Spain’s maritime rescue service has said, in the latest in a series of similar incidents involving the animals. The passengers reported feeling sudden blows to the hull and rudder before the boat started taking on water. After alerting the rescue services, a nearby oil tanker took them onboard and transported them to Gibraltar. The yacht was left adrift and eventually sank. Hey, it’s their ocean we’re just visitors.

Snake Plissken* says: “These are the things the Dems have promised to abolish if they regain power. The 1st, 2nd,4th,5th, and 6th amendments. The Senate. Electoral College. Supreme Court. Borders. ICE. And probably a few things I neglected to mention. Can we declare them enemies of the nation yet? This is exactly what they are.”  (* Kurt Russell by way of Kevin Sorbo)

He didn’t mean it: Comedian Jon Stewart called out former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Bob Menendez, D-N.J., and Hunter Biden during a segment on Monday focused on corruption titled, “How Dumb Is You?” The comedian described Pelosi as one of the “biggest beneficiaries” of their ability to trade stocks before showing video of the former speaker of the House saying members of Congress should not be banned from trading stocks. He’s just climbing on the band-wagon. Google how many times Stewrt has ridiculed, insulted, and otherwise slammed President Trump. You can’t count the times without an abacus.

In the public service : Three inmates charged in the violent killing of notorious Boston mob boss James “Whitey” Bulger while imprisoned with him in West Virginia have accepted plea agreements, court filings show. The three men have agreed to plead guilty, according to motions filed by prosecutors Monday. The filings do not indicate to which counts they are pleading but say the defendants “agree to cooperate with the United States Probation Office.” Too bad there isn’t a “murder in public service” thingy. Bulger would have certainly fallen into that category.

The check was in the mail: The charity founded by Prince Harry and his wife, has been found delinquent in California and cannot raise money because the state has determined Archewell Foundation has not paid its annual registration fees or submitted an annual report. A spokesman for the couple says all the charity documents were filed on time, but the required cheque appears not to have been received. Maybe it was in those thousands of pieces of undelivered mail.

Wednesday Motes, New Stuff

Questionable: On the afternoon of May 3, Roger Fortson opened the door of his Florida apartment with a gun in his hand and was immediately shot six times by a sheriff’s deputy responding to a complaint about an argument. There is going to be a lot of back and worth about this but I see a couple of glaring questions. If the deputy was responding to an “argument” call, why was his gun in hand? Or was he so fast at the draw he drew and fired before the other man could raise and shoot? Why was this deputy so prepared to encounter deadly violence? These must be answered in order to good/bad this shooting.

Good words: “Right or wrong, make a choice. The road of life is covered with “flat squirrels” that couldn’t make a decision.

Everyone’s had this nightmare:  A New Hampshire man is facing charges after police say he knocked over a portable toilet containing a woman and child who became trapped inside. When the woman, who apparently didn’t know the 18-year-old man, went inside the port-a-potty to help her daughter, the man pushed it over and it landed with the door on the pavement. Bystanders ran over and overturned the toilet, freeing the woman and child who reported being covered in feces and bodily fluids. I have this nightmare every time I use one of these ccrappy things. (Pun intended)

What the ever-loving hell: Just as Hamas targeted young children, even babies, for unthinkable torture and death, pro-Hamas demonstrators in Berkeley targeted a Jewish Community Center with preschool students in class as they chanted slogans through a bullhorn and marched. Even worse, the students who walked out were reportedly accompanied by two vice principals from the Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School as they intimidated the innocent toddlers, guilty solely of being Jewish. There is only 1 reason to do this protest outside this school, to instill fear in children. These people should be met with firehoses and biting dogs. And sent to jail for terroristic actions.

Remember: Biden said “No amendment to the Constitution is absolute.” This is the most dangerous thing a “P”resident has said in my 75+ years. In fact, in my opinion it is the most UnAmerican, communist statement to be spoken by a sitting president.

Hypocrisy? : British actor Nicholas Galitzine admitted that he feels “guilt” for taking queer roles even though he is not a member of the LGBTQQIAAP2S+ community. Don’t worry, Galitzine has earned a place on the list of the most influential stars of 2023-2024, and with this came several successes, not only in films but also in terms of salaries. It seems that the British actor has been accumulating significant earnings from his recent titles, and everything indicates that  Galitzine currently has a net worth exceeding $1 million. I wouldn’t shed too many tears for the guy.

Tuesday Motes, No Repeats

Kinda sad Good-Bye: Roger Corman, who for decades dominated the world of B movies as the producer or director of countless proudly low-budget horror, science fiction and crime films, died on Thursday at his home in Santa Monica, Calif. He was 98. From 1954 to 1970, Mr. Corman produced or directed dozens of movies for American International Pictures, cult classics like “A Bucket of Blood” (1959), “ The Masque of the Red Death” (1964), “The Wild Angels” (1966) and the original “The Little Shop of Horrors” (1960). Schlock? Yes. But I spent many enjoyable nights at the drive-in watching his movies. He will be missed.

No wonder they’re broke: Recently picked up a package at the post office. Clerk got huffy and told me the package had been sent on a “special books only” rate. I told him it was only book’s and he demanded to open it and check. I told him go ahead. He opened it, found the 4 books, and then in a huff told me he should charge me for the weight of the newspaper that had been used to pack the books. By now I’m a little p-o’d, so I dropped a $100 dollar bill on the counter and told him go ahead, weigh that shxt out and charge me. He immediately started like he was doing me a favor and “let it go this time”. I left before I could get myself another fed charge.

From https://middleoftheright.com/: So the parents of a robber, holding HIS gun at the heard of store staff, are angry that some bystander chose to intervene and shot their son…..He shoulda just Left the store and gone on” I am sure that s soon as this latest robbery was done he was gonna “Turn His Life Around”. Remember, deceased robbers do not re-offend.

This is who is teaching your children: A 56-year-old New Jersey school board president told a civil sexual abuse trial jury Wednesday that he met four of his six “religious wives” when they were 18 as he denied accusations he groomed one whom he taught in middle school. Camden School Advisory Board President Wasim Muhammad delved into his multiple marital relationships on the stand, which he admitted is “an exception and not the rule” and “very controversial.” YA THINK??? A 45-year-old woman is suing Muhammad, who is a minister and community activist in the Garden State city, for allegedly sexually abusing her when she was a minor. This pos is NOT a minister in any way, shape, or form.

It’s a shame: On a recent Facebook post it was claimed: “The US Women’s team has made it clear they will resign immediately if the Olympic Committee allows “Lia Thomas” to try out.” It has been found there is no evidence that the claim in the Facebook post, or the quote attributed to “the Coach,” is true. Searching for credible news reports or public statements online, there was no proof discovered. I say it’s a shame, they didn’t do it. If more people will stand-up, the sooner this insanity will go away. IMOO. But what do I know.

Monday Motes, Starting Over ..Again

Crown of thorns: Before two beauty queens resigned their positions this week, Miss USA organization was in such disarray that Miss Teen USA, UmaSofia Srivastava, had a broken crown for months. CEO Laylah Rose Loiczly didn’t have the money to fix it, sources said. “Layla didn’t uphold her end of the contract,” said Claud Michelle, a former social media manager who resigned on May 3. And why? Because Loiczly lost a sponsorship deal from Fred Mouawad, the long-time maker of Miss USA and Miss Teen USA crowns, when she allegedly sat a member of his staff in the nosebleed seats at a pageant event. “Beauty Pageants”, like Unions, have outlived themselves, IMHO.

You don’t own anything: A senior from Montana has delivered a viral speech about the sorry state of property taxes in the Treasure State. “I’m on Social Security, I’m 68-years-old and working just to pay my taxes,” says the retiree, in a clip shared  by Ryan Busse, who is running to be the next governor of Montana. The homeowner claims that over the last couple of years, his annual property taxes have soared from $895 to almost $8,000 — an increase of around 790% — which he says is like paying almost “$700 a month rent to the state to live in our own house.” The state has an Elderly Homeowner/Renter Tax Credit, and the maximum credit is $1,150. Property taxes are the “rent” you pay on something you already paid for. How the hell do “property taxes”, based on “property value” go up almost 800% ? To me, it sounds like someone else wants his land, and someone in .gov is helping. Sure, it sounds like a Yellowstone script, that’s because it really happens. Could it be our homes in Hawaii are next?

Another remake I won’t be watching: “Matlock”. I could barely stand the Andy TaylorGriffith version. I pretty sure Kathy Bates won’t be any better. A stero-typical southern person, with a think southern-drawl, that everybody thinks is a dummy, but is actually a very smart person who always outwits the other guys. Please, stop. Don’t do it.

Some really good news: The farm in Missouri that breeds Budweiser Clydesdales is welcoming 15 new foals.  Warm Sprins Ranch in Boonville, Missouri, said 15 Budweiser Clydesdale foals were born during the 2024 Foal Season. According to Warm Springs Ranch, when Clydesdale foals are born, they are about 3 feet tall and weigh roughly 150 pounds. As adults, they are usually about 18 hands (6 feet) tall and weigh around 2,000 pounds.

Another “filing error”: Charges against hundreds of illegal aliens have been dropped by a Democratic judge thanks to the magic of a “bureaucracy filing error.” The illegals breached the concertina wire, tore down the fencing, overwhelmed National Guard members, and made a mad rush into the United States. Isn’t it interesting how Democrat judges will find magical “bureaucratic filing errors” when it helps hundreds of illegal aliens, yet conservatives have the book thrown at them for wrongthink.

Sunday Rant D T I – Storyteller

8 May 24

Few things in this world upset me more than witnessing unworthy scum-bags desecrating/vandalizing our nation’s national monuments, particularly our war memorials!

 These craven buffoons, none of whom ever served their country, are unfit to stand in the shadow of heroes who fought and died, along-side me, in Vietnam!

 Their lawless, disrespectful vandalism is tolerated only because we have cowardly college presidents, city mayors, and assorted other contemptible “officials,” who are no better.

 “Posterity!

 You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom!  

I hope you will make good use of it.  

If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the pains to preserve it!”

 John Adams, 1814

This is not “protest” : Pro-Hamas protesters took out their frustration on Old Glory and American heroes from World War I with no police in sight after failing to disrupt the Met Gala Monday night.  The agitators vandalized a 107th Infantry Memorial in Central Park. The base was defaced with hideous graffiti reading “Gaza” in large black letters. Other terror supporters vandalized the statue’s soldiers with stickers of the Palestinian flag that read “Stop the Genocide. End the apartheid. Free Palestine.” Some of the agitators climbed atop the statue and draped the flag of terrorism over the figures. This is not “protest”, this is desecration, vandalism, and destruction. And does their “cause” no good. Storyteller

Saturday Story

Happy Sams

Last week I had a story about a minister and his attempted shooter. Reminded me of my experience……………….

Captain Revenge always figured he’d give me enough rope to really hang myself. It never worked, but he kept trying.  I guess he figured the other times were just flukes.

He calls me into his office and explains how much faith and confidence he has in me, because now he’s got a really “special” assignment, just for me.

We had just started the 9 week mids cycle, 10:30 pm to 7:15 am. For the rest of that cycle, I would do nothing but cruise late night areas, except Hotel Street and Waikiki areas. I was to stay out of those areas.

I was to check bars, restaurants, parking lots, and other late night open establishments. If I was in the “immediate” area of an “in progress” call I could respond, but otherwise I was to observe, make “on view” arrests, and he wanted a full “To-From” report at the end of every shift detailing where I was at all times, who I spoke to, and what information I had gathered.

He would be the sole judge of my performance. Again, enough rope to hang myself.

So night after night that’s what I did.  I patrolled the strip club parking lots. I talked to bar owners and late night restaurant managers. I did not go into Waikiki or Hotel Street areas. I did not go to the big restaurants and bars. And every morning I put a typed report on the Captain’s desk.

The 1st one was something like 6 pages. They got bigger almost every night. In a month, 15 pages were the usual.

I also got wanted vehicle and warrant lists from records and dispatch. That was my idea.

Now my nightly reports also included stolen vehicle operator arrests, outstanding warrant arrests, and a load of usable information for the detectives. Let’s face it; sleazy bars need love and protection too.

One of those little sleazy bars was “Happy Sam’s” on Kapahulu. Sam’s had been through a number of evolution’s over the years but at this time was just a small hostess bar on the outskirts of Waikiki, outskirts being the optimum word.

The owner, a middle aged Korean lady who called herself, well Sam, was nice enough. She didn’t encourage her girls to rip off customers or try to sell way over-priced “champagne”.

The clientele was mostly neighborhood men, sometimes couples, and the hostess’ were mostly girls trying to pick up a little extra money with a couple of Sam’s relatives called in on Friday and Saturday or whenever the club got really busy during sports nights.

A nice clean neighborhood hostess bar, sometimes strangers would wonder in, stay or not. Sam’s had a pretty regular group. Good drinkers that could walk home or would use a cab. No problems. Sam, and her bartenders and hostess’ always seemed glad to see me and always treated me with courtesy and respect.

No trouble at Sam’s.

Which made it even more surprising when dispatch called me to report the manager of Happy Sam’s had called requesting my assistance with a customer.

I wasn’t too far away, told dispatch I’d respond, and another area officer, Bobby L. says he’ll back me up.

Bobby and I got there about the same time. As I got out of my vehicle, a customer walks out the front door, and starts across the street.

I look into the club and Sam is pointing at the customer walking away. Pointing furiously and speaking Korean, of course.

I told Bobby to talk to the guy walking away. Get some ID or something to hold him till I talk to Sam.

Bobby walked across the street toward the departing male. I walked to the front door and there met Sam and one of her girls.

The hostess was jabbering away. Of course, in Korean and Sam was trying to tell me in English. Finally, I heard one word clearly “gun”. And the hostess is rubbing her hand around the back of her hip like someone was hugging her and patting her right hip. But I heard “gun” loud and clear.

I looked across the street and the former customer had been stopped by Bobby. The customer had his back to me, and Bobby was still talking so I started across the street as fast as I could without actually running.

As I approached, I heard Bobby demand some ID. It appeared it wasn’t the first time Bobby had asked for it. The customer reached his right hand behind his hip as if reaching for a wallet. But from my vantage point I could see the outline of a wallet, in his left rear pocket. As his right hand reached under his shirt I could see a small holster, hidden by his shirt, at the back of his hip.

As he pulled the gun, a small semi-auto pistol, I was right behind him.

I yelled “Gun” to Bobby, grabbed the guy’s right hand, and pulled it hard, against my chest, and bullet proof vest.

Bobby was a serious weightlifter and had big biceps. At my yell, Bobby didn’t even hesitate; he just threw a right-hand punch. The sound of his fist impacting the guy’s head was almost louder than the “click” of the guns hammer falling. Almost.

As I had grabbed the gun, his grip had pulled back the trigger. The gun was later identified as a Colt Junior, a .25 caliber semi-automatic pistol with an external hammer, and it had a round in the chamber. Because the “junior” didn’t have a grip safety, it didn’t require a complete grip to fire. But it hadn’t fired. It just went click. The round didn’t fire.

Bobby’s punch had knocked the guy unconscious and as his body collapsed on the ground. I stood there holding his hand and the gun tightly to my chest.

When he saw what I was holding Bobby’s knees sagged just a little but he was right back and pulled out cuffs. We cuffed the guy, I put the gun in my pocket, and we had to almost drag him to Bobby’s vehicle.

Once we got him secured in the vehicle cage Bobby called for a sector supervisor, a detective, and ambulance for our “customer”. I cleared and locked up the gun and we started the investigation fun.

Sorting out what Sam and the hostess had to say was as I guessed, confusing. The hostess had sat down next to the customer, he bought her a drink, and when she slid her arm around his waist she felt the holstered gun.

She tried not to alert the guy, so she kept smiling and told Sam in Korean, what was up. The customer may have spoken some Korean or may have just spooked, but he walked out without finishing his beer. That’s when we got there.

The customer turned out to be a Marine stationed in Kaneohe. A search of his vehicle turned up a K-bar knife, a smoke grenade, and an explosive grenade simulator which is basically a very large firecracker.

Basically, the detectives took over from there. Bobby and I went back to type our reports.

At the end of that watch, 7 weeks later, the next shift Commander also assigned units to check the bars, parking lots and restaurants. To do what I had done for those long weeks. Two men units were assigned after that. They were assigned to succeed, not hang themselves. And of course, Captain Revenge received an attaboy letter for coming up with the idea.

Shortly after the Happy Sam’s incident, Bobby was picked to transfer to a plain clothes unit from which he eventually became an investigator for the City and County Prosecutors Office under Charles Marsland.

I don’t know what happened to the “customer”. I tried to follow up with the detectives and was told the case had been “passed upward” whatever the hell that meant.

At the end of that 9 weeks the Captain, put me back into the patrol pool and I spent the next 2 cycles patrolling the area around Hawaii Kai, Sandy Beach, and Hanauma Bay. Basically, the ass end of district 1. But at least I was away from the Captain.

I’ve heard that “click” in my nightmares in the years since, sometimes it goes off. Well, it is just a nightmare.

At least that’s what I keep telling myself.

Friday Motes, Schools Out For…Now

Well, that settle’s it: Well know scholar and self made idiot Kathy Griffin says Stormy Daniel “Does not lie and will not lie”. This comes from a person that admits she meow’s like a cat and moo’s like a cow during her “yoga”. This to help her with her TIPTSD (Trump Induced PTSD).

Never let them forget: “You’re willing to walk among us unvaxed, you are the enemy”, Gene Simmons; “Who gets the ICU bed? A vaccinated person, come right in. An unvaccinated person who gobbled horse goo, rest in peace”, Jimmy Kimmel ; “Screw your freedom”, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Don’t you forget them, their lies, and what they REALLY think about you.

Gor for a cruise, it’ll be fun they said:  A cruise ship,  the Meraviglia,  has pulled  into NYC  harbor bearing a gruesome cargo in the form of a huge, 44’ long, dead whale sprawled across its bow. The incident happened on Saturday, and the event is being held by some as further evidence of the unfortunate impact on sea life that large vessels can have. (AND) Angela Bridges was aboard the Carnival Venezia cruise ship with her family, including son Aiden, en route to New York City from the Caribbean when he fell seriously ill, concerning the medical team on board. At the time of the critical medical incident, the ship was outside of North Carolina and more than 350 nautical miles off the coast. The 920th Rescue Wing of the Air Force, consisting of two HH-60G Pave Hawk helicopters, two HC-130J Combat King II aircraft and two teams of combat rescue officers and pararescuemen had to fly to the ship’s position to safely extract the patient for transport to the nearest capable medical center. In other words, I’ll pass.

I commented on this in the past: U.S. House Republicans passed a bill Wednesday to add a citizenship question to the census and exclude noncitizens from the official headcount when determining population for representation in Congress and electoral votes. They have 37 ways to determine your “ethnic background” but not one on your citizenship. Time to fix that.

The check was in the mail: A recent audit revealed tens of thousands of pieces of delayed or undelivered mail at a single Minnesota post office. The audit was conducted at the Bemidji Post Office by the USPS Office of the Inspector General with its findings released on Monday. Last year, there were reported concerns about increased package volume disrupting mail service. Did you know there are over 1,200 ARMED Postal Inspectors? Hmmmm. 

Thursday Motes, Waiting for the Fibal Bell

A four-legged hero: An 85-year-old Colorado woman who went missing last week was found by a K-9 police dog after she got stuck along the side of a “steep ravine,” officials said. Within minutes of beginning the search, Mercury located the woman “clinging to a tree down a steep ravine where she could not be seen from the roadway or canal.”  A body-worn camera video that showed Greenwood Village Police Department Officer Austin Speer and K-9 Mercury working to track the unnamed woman, who had been missing for around two hours on Thursday, May 2.  Wat to go Mercury.

Or a picinic basket: A driver likely killed in a horror car crash in Massachusetts was found next to a bear that appeared to have then dragged his body into woods, according to cops. The driver lost control of his car on Route 91 in Hatfield Sunday morning, striking the guardrail multiple times before hurtling off the road and down an embankment. Another driver alerted police to the remains of the wreck off the roadway around 11 a.m. When first responders reached the scene, the deceased male occupant of the vehicle was outside the car and a bear was observed in the woods in the vicinity of the scene, evidence suggests the bear at some point had made contact with the victim’s body. Maybe Yogi was just trying to help.

Way too much time on their hands: Noelia Voigt’s decision to relinquish her Miss USA crown has sparked a flurry of online speculation after fans noticed a strange detail about her statement.  in the comments of her post and elsewhere on social media, users noticed that taking the first letter in each sentence of her statement reveals the phrase “I AM SILENCED” — though this discounts the last three sentences, the first letters of which spell “HIP.” It was not immediately clear whether the message was intentional. People, for godds sake, get a life.

No, I didn’t go to the Met Gala. I was doing something really important, watching re-runs of “My Mother The Car”.

This is not “protest” : Pro-Hamas protesters took out their frustration on Old Glory and American heroes from World War I with no police in sight after failing to disrupt the Met Gala Monday night.  The agitators vandalized a 107th Infantry Memorial in Central Park. The base was defaced with hideous graffiti reading “Gaza” in large black letters. Other terror supporters vandalized the statue’s soldiers with stickers of the Palestinian flag that read “Stop the Genocide. End the apartheid. Free Palestine.” Some of the agitators climbed atop the statue and draped the flag of terrorism over the figures. This is not “protest”, this is desecration, vandalism, and destruction. And does their “cause” no good.

This is third world communist stuff: Andrew Weissmann is the face of DOJ corruption. He has been overturned by the Supreme Court and he’s been behind most all the efforts to attack President Trump through lawfare. Now he’s a top Deep State player behind DA Bragg’s bogus Manhattan case against President Trump. In a tweet this past weekend, Weissmann shares that he believes that a defendant in the US must prove their innocence. Silly me, I always thought it was “Innocent until proven guilty”. Beyond all shadow of doubt doesn’t seem to apply anymore either.

Wednesday Motes, Lunch Break

One more step to the loss of freedom: The feds are set to launch new safety rules for transporting some livestock. However, some ranchers are now concerned about how much it might impact them. Ranchers and cattle farmers are bracing for a big change. Under a new rule, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is soon expected to require high-frequency or low-frequency electronic tags on most cattle and bison being transported on any American highway. “They” will know how many cattle you have, where they are, and when you move them. Can some kind of “tax”, (for the good of public safety), be far behind?

World involvement has started: France has sent its first troops officially to Ukraine. The French soldiers are drawn from France’s 3rd Infantry Regiment, which is one of the main elements of France’s Foreign Legion (Légion étrangère). The initial group of French troops numbers around 100. This is just the first contingent of around 1,500 French Foreign Legion soldiers scheduled to arrive in Ukraine. Hey France, does Dien Ben Phu ring any bells? How about Algeria? Ding Ding Ding

Remember; The people who shut down your businesses and killed your careers are now telling you to re-elect them so they can keep their jobs. Never forget what they’ve done to you and your families. If they are re-elected, they WILL do it again.

It’s not a “protest”: Paint splattered on floors. Spray-painted messages and screeds covering walls. Furniture moved and overturned. Security cameras disabled. Fire extinguishers missing and entrances blocked by stacks of chairs.  A white sign painted with red lettering that proclaimed, “WELCOME TO THE REFAAT ALAREER MEMORIAL LIBRARY,” was draped over a painted mural that generally greets library visitors. Pro-Palestinian demonstrators renamed the library after the Palestinian poet who died in an Israeli airstrike in December. The library’s ground floor was splattered with orange, red and yellow paint, with empty water bottles strewn about. File cabinets and other furniture blocked elevator doors. Glass-covered displays were smashed. There are also reports from campus security and staff of potential thefts of rare archival material, including its full Dark Horse Comics collection. You ae NOT a protester. You ARE a vandal, a burglar, and YOU ARE A THIEF. You should be treated as such.

Not much sympathy here: At the height of his Magnum P.I. prominence in 1985, Tom Selleck was reportedly earning $500,000 per episode, which in today’s economy is equivalent to an estimated #$1.2 million dollars. In recent years, Selleck is best known for the role of Frank Reagan in CBS’ police drama Blue Bloods — for which he reportedly earns $200,000 per episode, averaging a total salary of $5 million per season. Sellek,79, has been starring “Blue Bloods” since 2010, but later this year, the show is set to end. Without the income he earns from it, Selleck may be forced to give up his California ranch.? ? Hey Tommy, tell me again about that “reverse mortgage” you do commercials about. Maybe take your own advice.

Tuesday Motes, Recess Playtime

Protected class: A second “black book” of 200+ contact names and numbers belonging to the well-connected late sex offender Jeffrey Epstien is going up for auction in two weeks time. On May 15, the black book will be offered for private sale by sealed bids by Alexander Historical Auctions. A forensic document examiner’s report on its authenticity will be provided alongside it. And not one -single-solitary indictment.

Hoisted on his own petard: The word “petard” comes from the French word  that means to break wind. Kevin Parker, a Democrat state senator representing Brooklyn, is calling the Adult Survivors Act unconstitutional, and yet he voted for it. When Democrat politicians in New York passed the Adult Survives Act to punish Donald Trump and provide the ability for E. Jean Carroll to go after Trump 30 years later, their Trump Derangement Syndrome blinded them to how it might impact them. So the demorats are hoisted (exposed) on their own farts. (Te He snicker snicker).

Outlived their worth: The Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) has many demands in their latest salvo in negotiating a new contract with the public schools system. he $50 billion they are asking for includes a 9% wage hike, fully paid abortions for its members, new migrant services and facilities, and a myriad of LGBT-related requirements. I have often said, union’s have outlived their usefulness. Theu no longer do their “members” any good.

Shades of Baader-Meinhof: College campus protests are being infiltrated by outside forces and supported by professional agitators. One such alleged professional agitator is James Carlson, who was arrested inside Columbia University’s Hamilton Hall and has no affiliation with the University.  Carlson “fights the man,” and rages against capitalism, which he can afford to do since it has benefitted him and his family, he goes home each night to his lavish $3.4 million Brooklyn brownstone property. Useful idiots like this don’t realize, the first thing “they” will do after “the revolution” will be to line people like him up and put a bullet in their head. Why take the chance they’d start another revolution.

Feel old? American Graffiti was filmed in….1973. Half a century ago. Ouch.
