Now look at them Yo-Yo's

 that's the way you do it

You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and your chicks for free (Dire Straits)

well, at least the Yo-Yo's on MTV were singing songs or playing guitar.......more than we can say for the daycare centers in Somalia West.....aka.....Minnesota.....if you haven't seen it yet, give it a watch ......Nick Shirley ( an independent journalist) released a video on X , visited multiple daycare and learning centers in Mn, groups that collectively received over 110 million form our tax dollars.....and they rented office space.....put up signage ......spelled the word learning wrong....but the kicker is, they were empty.....no kids, no students, just a few women in hijabs hanging around......

The original scandal was reported a few weeks ago and it was estimated that $1 Billion was stolen/misappropriated by somalia illegals under the watchful eye of Omar, her brother/husband  & Walz and friends......they both immediately took to Face the Nation to scoff at the numbers and then blame the Govt ( of which they ARE) and of course White Men for the scandal.......well that number has grown to $9 Billion and we are only just beginning to pay attention.

the Ironic, Funny or Sad thing......is that maybe, just maybe if the left stopped covering for crooks that steal from our country, then maybe....the funds would be available to continue the ACA subsidies......i still believe that at it's core is a desire to bankrupt the country and then blame that on Capitalism ........it's easier to get a few starving sheep to follow you off the cliff than it is for you to convince and independent thriving individual.

I remember when DOGE first started out.......a common sense review of Federal spending to eliminate waste and redundancy....finally a bipartisan issue that everyone could get behind......BUT we didn't......instead the left mobilized to demonize Elon Musk, firebomb TESLA and organize boycotts....well NOW we know why...they were afraid of where this would lead.....i hope all the useful idiots that did Maxine Waters , Elizabeth Warren and Chuck Schumers dirty work for them feel stupid today.

2+3= BEEER         9 billion beers

Bangin' on the bongos like a chimpanzee
That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Get your money for nothin', get your chicks for free

Take the highway

 Lord knows I've been gone too long

Lot of sad days
One day you'll turn around and I'll be gone (Toy Caldwell+ Marshal Tucker)

music has always played a significant role in my life.........lyrics.........words and music....i don't think i could survive in a world without tunes......perhaps i am guilty of assigning too much significance to songs......searching for the right song at the right moment......believing in some outside forces to provide the soundtrack to monumental events....or creating them altogether.....

i spent an emotional few days in the Garden State......i spent 4 straight Christmas Days away from home in the late 1980's......Diego Garcia, onboard the USS Luce at sea or in Jacksonville Fla.......i always volunteered to work on Christmas day while we were on the ship.....so that the guys with families could have off to spend the day at home with the spouse and kids.....but when you are 20 you have your whole life ahead of you......so i was always fine........this year felt different and i had to come home for a short spell......and i am glad i did.......but traveling is exhausting and in 2025 very depressing........I found myself in the lobby of the Hotel Ballast in Wilmington NC awaiting an uber......the hotel was tuned to Sirius Southern Rock station and the GEM, GEM of a song referenced at the opening came on.

so much emotion tied to the Southern Rock titans for me.....Skynyrd, the Outlaws and the Caldwell Bro's and Marshal Tucker......ive listened to Take the highway 2,000 times.....but it never hit me in the gut like it did this week.....the beauty of music is that we can't always explain how or why it hits.....but when it does you feel no pain (as Mr Marley told us) .......i sat there immersed in the musical interlude , and although i saw my driver arrive.....i didn't leave the lobby until the song was over....

I'll be back someday
But darling, please don't wait for me too long
There's just one place I can't stay
Memories of your love still lingers on

And the time has finally come
For me to pack my bags and walk away
Make me stay

Conquistador your stallion stands

 

in need of company
And like some angel's hallowed brow you reek of purity
I see your armour-plated breast has long since lost its sheen
And in your death mask face there are no signs which can be seen ( Procol Harum)

Big night at the Worlds Most Famous arena as the Great, GREAT Kris Kreider returns in an unfamiliar Orange jersey with a silly duck on his chest......he brings with him an impressive 13 goals , more than any Ranger this season and his Ducks are atop their division ( as predicted on this blog back in August). Welcome Back Kreids, the Blueshirt Faithful still love ya and appreciate everything you did for us.....you were big time player , the bigger the game, the bigger the results....including a 3rd period hat trick in Carolina to bury the Canes and advance to the Conf Finals.......and of course a Franchise record 48 post season goals.....

After the welcome home video tribute , the focus should shift and a red hot spotlight should find one Chris Drury.....he dismantled a Cup Challenging team and drafted poorly and squandered Cap space.... it is time for Drury to move on.

I know you came with sword held high
You did not conquer, only die

 

BLUE of the Mighty DEEP

 Gold of God's great sun.

Let these our colors be
Till all of time be done, done, done, done.
On seven seas we learn
Navy's stern call
Faith, courage, service true,
With honor, over honor, over all.

I ain't gonna lie....this one hurts

4th of July..........no problem

Labor Day, Halloween......no problem

Thanksgiving.............no problem

but today i awoke with a pit in my stomach and an uneasy feeling.......a yearning , a strong longing.

today, i wish i was home.

today i wish i was gearing up with layers of hats, gloves and hooded sweatshirts.

today i wish i was standing around a keg for 10 hours.

today i wish i was inching closer to the fire pit during a game break.

today is my super bowl....my Christmas morning, my game 7 of the cup.

today is my day to gloat.

today is my day to gleem like a proud parent.

today i will manage to survive

today i will find a bar to cheer on the lads

but today it just won't be the same.

Go...............FIGHT....................WIN

Anchors Aweigh, my boys,
Anchors Aweigh.
Farewell to foreign shores,
We sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay.
Through our last night ashore,
Drink to the foam,
Until we meet once more.
Here's wishing you a happy voyage home.

i was feeling

 oh so bad,

i asked my family doctor just what i had (The Young Rascals)

well i can see the writing on the walls.......the demonrats did what they always do........they create or exacerbate a problem and immediately accuse the Republicans of being responsible or doing the same thing.

They spent 4 years denying Biden was a decaying vegetable and now they are 24/7 questioning Trumps mental and physical health.

They drove the economy into a ditch and were at the helm when inflation rose to 8% , and now they are blaming Trump for the affordability crisis.

But their next move is obvious.....they shut down the govt over obamacare subsidies, knowing full well that the Republicans were not going to give in during a budget negotiation, but they planted the seed in the American subconcious......and they are hoping that if and when insurance premiums go through the Roof on January 1, that avg Americans will blame the party in charge....ie the Republicans.....and will be so overwhelmed with health care costs, that they vote the Republicans out at the midterms.

Most American voters cast their ballot in the here and now.......how am i doing today ?  if it's not good, they vote for the other party.....most voters don't care if this is really the result of the Horrible Affordable Care Act that the dems rammed down the country's throat back in 2012....all they are going to care about is that in 2026 health care costs are bankrupting them.........they don't care that he country has an insurmountable debit because they have been subsidizing this horrible plan for 15 years......meanwhile, I spent 2 hours in a toxic dust cloud on 9/11 but my insurance won't cover me for a colonoscopy because i had one 8 years ago........everyone is cashing checks from the 9/11 fund for heartburn and skin rashes, but i can't even get an annual 9/11 physical until i am diagnosed with something tangible......great fucking country.....i failed the lung capacity test so many times that they just stopped giving it to me.........i should to Montreal for a ranger and then come back across the border and seek asylum......i would get the Triple AAA Health plan as an illegal.....

Anyway.....2+3=BEEER        GOOOOOOO Navy..........BEAT ARMY.

all you need.......all you really need........is Good Lovin.

you got something to say

speak or hold your peace
Well, you got something to say, speak now or hold your peace
 If it’s information you want you can go get it from the police (Dylan)

This is one of the posts that is not for the followers of this blog, but rather for future readers.....it is all just plain common sense....the kind that is eventually brushed under the rug .

The latest nonsensical complaint of  the left is that Trump is not doing what he promised to do during the election, he is not prioritizing deporting the worst offenders....instead he is deporting hard working family men that have been here for decades.

First and foremost, the left opened the borders, allowed 20 million into the country and denied to our face it was happening ....they refused to negotiate for obama's "Dreamers" and when they had all 3 branches of govt under their control they did not try to reform immigration whatsoever.......so they do not have a leg to stand on.

But let's talk about the merits of their argument....the worst offenders......the violent gang members and serial rapists are not working 9:00 to 5:00 in the corner Starbucks.....they are not attending BLM and Anti-Israel protests with signs around their next proclaiming their illegal status.......they don't want to be identified. they are lurking in alleys and shadows......they are members of criminal enterprise and have the financial support to stay below the radar.

NOW....IF if IF the sanctuary cities would allow for their Police, Schools, Hospitals and Jails to work together and cooperate with ICE , instead of stonewalling them; they could identify the "Worst" and alert and assist ICE is apprehending.....and ultimately deporting these dirtbags.

I'm still waiting for the first sanctuary City for the unborn fetus........and for a mayor who makes it illegal for the city hospitals to hire or assist abortion doctors...........i am sure the left would accept and support a municipality that ignores laws that don't fit their preferred narrative.

I personally am not the biggest supporter of going after illegals that are trying to assimilate and keep their noses clean and raise a family in this country.....BUT........the truth is we need for a significant # of people to self-deport........in fact recent stats show that 1.6 million people have self deported since February......and that is most likely the result of the non criminals being deported.......otherwise that 1.6 million would have just waited until after all the criminals were deported first.........now that they know they could conceivably get detained and deported tomorrow morning while buying coffee , well they might decide to just self deport and still have a chance to come back legally down the road.

common sense......just like 2+3=BEER

We Live in a Political World

 Love don’t have any place

We’re living in times where men commit crimes
And crime don’t have a face  (Dylan)

was watching the world cup draw yesterday and my mind began to wonder.....i know some people don't care for soccer and that's okay.......i'm not a true fan of the sport, but i love an event that commands international attention, an event that stretches on for 4, 5 or even 6 weeks now with the expansion to 48 teams.....an even that is primarily played during the daylight hours and sometime depending on time differences, it is played early in the morning.....and everyone packs the bars and drinks........they could be playing checkers for all i care.....if the bars are 3 deep at 8:00 am, I LOVE it.

i barely remember that 1978 WC.....i think the title game was televised on Wide World of Sports on a sunday afternoon....probably on tape delay......i remember watching it and thinking the cosmos and NASL were more exciting.......

in the early summer of 1982 my good friend Charlie H informed us that his parents were going to Ireland ( I think)  for 2 or 3 weeks........and myself, Dano, Donnie Hoff , Griffin, MCevoy, Collins basically moved into his parents home on 6th ave.......we were wrapping up our junior year of High School and we had ( or took) a lot of half days......Me, Donn, Eddie G ,Charlie, Chico, would walk up the hill from Xaverian via 69th street all the way to 6th ave.......buying suitcases of beloved budweiser along the way.....firing up the grill immediately and blasting Rock & Roll.....Dano would arrive from Ford, Collins from Xavier and Mac from the Fort.........and one day i was fiddling with the TV.....No Mets Matinees, but i landed on the Spanish channel ( 68 ? 47 ?) .....i landed on the Peru vs Poland game....fuzzy black & white Tv and the announcers were speaking Spanish.........Poland crushed them....and as we were crushing cans of Buds the announcers kept screaming Goal........the now famous call of GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLL

we loved it, we were drunk and we were hooked......10 to 15 guys watching a sport they didn't understand listening to announcers speaking a language we couldn't figure out (despite the fact that most of us took spanish in school for 3 years) ........I remember Dano squinting at the TV as if that would help him understand what was going on.....and finally just yelling at the television to "Speak English" .

we came back everyday.......watched soccer , drank a case and blasted the new album from the Plastic Bertrand "Ca plane pour moi " and sang along in french....or maybe even spanglish..........Charlie's older siblings were polar opposites.....Big brother Bobby cheered us on and even started taking his own half days and watching the games with us......but Sister Joan wanted us all hung from the Gallows.......and so some of the lads took to turning her high school graduation picture that hung on the wall around, so that she now faced the wall...

I don't remember what happened first.....did the world cup end ? or did his parents come home from vacation ? not sure.....but i do know that every 4 years i roll up my proverbial sleeves and get cracking on some serious day drinking.....from the Dubliner on Stone Street to the Iron Monkey in JC, to Texas -Az in Hoboken and of course the Liev........from watching Ireland advance in PK's in Martins Bar across from the Bull and 2 Broadway to hanging with Seamus O'Donnell and Danny McFadden in Woodside....from the Steak Exchange to the Redrock....from Suspenders on Broadway with my nephew who was a summer intern to the Brooklyn Dodger.......from drinking Guinness and having an Irish Breakfast at 6:30 am in the Fitzpatrick Hotel on 57th and Lex to just Guinness at Diamond Jim Brady's on Maiden Lane....that was 2002.......the games were being played in Korea ( i think) we were still in a 9/11 fog......but the bars secretly opened at 6:00 for a 6:30 kickoff.......yep...i do love the World Cup and i'm looking forward to watching games in Captain Archie's and Molly Darcy's this summer.....no matter who hoists the trophy, there is one constant.....2+3=BEEER

USA received a favorable draw.......we WILL be advancing to the knockout stage.....mark it down......and buy more AUR....it's starting to inch upwards

We live in a political world
Under the microscope
You can travel anywhere and hang yourself there
You always got more than enough rope

would ya please not stare at me like that

 It’s just my foolish pride

But sometimes a man must be alone
And this is no place to hide (Dylan)

well, i spent a nice few days eating and drinking like a pirate , watching College Football and Hockey and counting my blessings......but no more hiding, it's time to get back to work.

First and foremost....we expect a significant Sweater Nite 28 development and subsequent announcement in the week ahead....stay tuned.

so 6 members of the demonrat caucus created a video urging the United States Military to defy unlawful orders........imagine for a second that it was the Republicans that orchestrated this stunt during the auto-pen era with a vegetable as commander in Chief ?  Imagine if they drew the worlds attention to the obvious fact that Joe biden was in mental decline and could not possibly be the one issuing orders....well it would have made January 6th look like a PTA meeting..........but i digress.........back to the video.....the participants in this video all had military or intelligence community backgrounds...so they knew exactly what they were doing........I heard some media voices on the right complaining that they did not specify "which" orders were illegal.......that was by design....this was carefully planned with legal teams to protect the speakers from repercussions.....just a generic public safety announcement.....no specifics..........but they are hoping to strike a nerve with some within the military community .....let's be honest....we have a lot of lose cannons in a volunteer military force....some were nuts when they signed up....others were driven crazy by shipmates or the harsh, extreme experiences of serving .......some joined for the wrong reasons and now hate their chain of command.......so let's speak directly but ambiguously to those wackos and hope one of them turns their guns on their superiors.....anything at any level to throw a wrench into the Trump Administration......just like russia gate and the other distractions.............but i wonder if Mark Kelly and the other concerned members of the democrat party  supported the Military members that refused the since rescinded mandate to get the untested Covid 19 vaccine.......silly question, they did NOT........so Lloyd Austin issued a mandate in 2021.....and 2 years later after the damage was done, he rescinded his mandate.......begs the question, what exactly is a lawful order ? and more importantly, do we want soldiers in the field debating amongst themselves and further dividing the country ?  well, we know which party wants that exact scenario to play out.

speaking of the military.....The Naval Academy Football team ended their season in a 3 way tie for the American Conf Championship.........but because of tie breakers, they will not be playing in the title game......they lost the tiebreaker with North Texas because of a regular season loss head to head...understood....but they lost the tiebreaker to Tulane because Tulane is higher ranked in the CFP rankings.....not sure why.......Navy has 2 losses.......#9 Ranked Notre Dame at South Bend....and at Conf C0-champ 11-1 North Texas.........Tulane has 2 losses..... #6 Ole Miss at Oxford....and a bad loss to 6-6 UTSA.......I think the squids lost the popularity contest.......a shame for the kids, but now they can get busy preparing for America's Game against Army in Baltimore on Dec 13th.

Hockey note....although i firmly believe that the Rangers should trade the russian Goalie....i no longer believe that Chris Drury is an adequate judge of talent......so i hope he doesn't trade Shesterkin because we will probably get ripped off.....get a real GM in there first , then unload that ridiculous salary, use the savings to sign 3 or 4 grinders for the 3rd and 4th lines and maybe even a tier 2 free agent in the offseason....but what do i know.

i know    2+3=BEEER

No one tried to say a thing
When they took him out in jest
Except, of course, the little neighbor boy
Who carried him to rest
And he just walked along, alone
With his guilt so well concealed
And muttered underneath his breath
“Nothing is revealed”

well, there's all kinds of cities

 that I ramble around

But New York, New York
Now there's a helluva town

You know it ain't no lie
And it ain't no guff
They got five big boroughs
chock full of stuff
They got skyscrapers, subways
and a sea of humanity (Loudon Wainright III)

The master fiddler was at it again yesterday....it doesn't add up and it doesn't make sense to the masses at CNN, but there he was.....the Fascist Despot was breaking bread and exchanging ideas with the Communist Mayor of NYC at the White House.

This goes against the narrative that the demon rats have been pounding into the dirt for 10 years.......the most evil man on the planet (according to turkey neck nancy) hosted , greeted, congratulated and collaborated with his sworn enemy.........but that's Trump.....That's Business....and that's what America voted for......an end to gridlock, an end to divisive, fight to death , resist and disrupt politics ........find a middle ground, find a common ground, give a little, take a little and try to come to a conclusion that benefits the country...NOT ONLY THE PARTY........the rank and file demons are waking up and realizing that they are swimming in a rip current.....it's a time for ideas and negotiations, they need a platform, you can't just say affordability.......HOW ?  and you still can, but probably shouldn't run a campaign of fighting and resisting Trump......not after the darling of the left just went to the oval office and was courteous to Hit - ler.........and will undoubtedly walk away eventually with a boatload of cash  for his NYC constituents.

NYC is a rare and different tune........the anger i feel at it's downfall is tied directly to the Love I feel for her 5 boroughs.......it was for me, the greatest and the only place to grow up...........I have felt that i was lucky to have been in work (at my desk on the lucky 13th floor of tower one) on 9/11.......i needed to be there, and i needed to survive.........had i been off that day or away from the city on business, i think the questions and the "not knowing" of whether i would have survived, would have driven me crazy and tortured my brain over the last 25 years.......and to a lesser extent, growing up in Brooklyn at the time when i did was my greatest blessing, the people, places and events we experienced cannot be overstated......but it also answered the inner question.........as Sinatra would sing.....if you can make it there.......well, you know the rest.............and i take solace and i feel that i did indeed not only survive, but i made it there.......and i will never turn my back on NYC...........i hope this dialogue between POTUS and the Mayor Elect will lead to some good for the city....or at least some life support.

2+3=BEEER

Well, like I said before you know
I ramble around
And meet a whole lot people out there
that put New York down
Of course half of them
ain't never been there
So some of that criticism just ain't fair

Sure I know
New York is dirty and ugly
and full of cockroaches
and gonorrhea and rats and junkies
and hookers, rude cab drivers
bad air, bad vibes and unemployment
and they don't pick up the garbage

Ah, but it's not boring

I can't wait

 wait for you to change your mind

It’s late, I’m trying to walk the line
Well, it’s way past midnight and there are people all around
Some on their way up, some on their way down (Dylan)

"we" know that TDS is real.....but sadly some people in this great country were not afforded the gift of common sense......they do not have the time, energy or brainpower to research and debunk all of the nonsense they read on the internet.....and so when i come across something egregious, well, i have to find the time to shed some natural light onto the dark meanderings of the afflicted.

I read some grumblings on FB the other day about Trump and the Banks scheming against America with their talk of 40 or even 50 year mortgages........you see, it's all part of Trumps evil plan.

First and foremost......nobody is forced to buy a home.....nobody is forced to take ANY mortgage, let alone one for 50 years.......but they should.......home ownership is the gateway to escaping the circle of poverty so many families seemed to be trapped in.

The avg American first time home buyer is now 40 years old.

Assuming you finally leave home and get a place of your own at say 25......that still means you are paying rent for 15 years........at the end of the 15 years you still have zero equity.

Let's say at 25 you scrape together a down payment and buy a home/apt with a 50 year mortgage.

In those same 15 years the rates will probably fluctuate, at some point when the rates are down you may chose to refinance for a better rate.

In those 15 years on the job you may see some pay increases or a bonus, at some point you may decide you can pay more than the monthly ask.....you can always send additional $$ to reduce your principal....and you may decide to refinance for a 30, 20 or even 15 year mortgage.

along the way you are establishing a healthy credit record, and other lenders will offer you better rates because you are NOT considered high risk.

Along the way you are establishing equity ownership....house prices generally increase over time, so the house you bought for 100K may be worth 125 or 130K , and in the event of a family emergency, you can chose to borrow verse the equity.

At the end of the 15 years you have SOMETHING.........you have your original down payment, plus the principal you have paid down, plus the probable increase in value of the home itself.

If you stay in the mortgage for the full 50 year term will you pay a lot more Interest than a traditional 30 year mortgage ? yes of course you will........Banks are businesses after all, not social workers.....but the good news is that nobody is forcing anyone to buy a home and take a mortgage.........side note JPM dipped down to $300......buy the dip

second side note.....Cheetos and Dorritos have decided to stop using artificial flavorings and dyes in their chips.......can't wait to hear the MSM media give Bobby Kennedy the credit for these healthy changes.

2+3= BEER     and 50 year mortgage

The air burns and I’m trying to think straight
And I don’t know how much longer I can wait

Here I am,

 and in this city, with a fistful of dollars
And baby, you'd better believe (Ace Frehley)

yesterday i awoke and decided enough was enough.....this Ranger home ice drought has got to end......Gabe Perrault was called up.....he chose to wear # 94 ( a great sign and ominous reminder) and the stumbling preds from Nashville were in town.........and so I donned my lucky new hooded sweathsirt and went straight to Molly Darcy's.....the closest thing to a Manhattan Mahogany Oasis i can find down here....and low and behold the Rangers played 60 strong minutes and chased the Preds starting goalie enroute to a comfortable 6-3 win........i declare the crisis is Over.......we have one of the best coaches of young talent and we have enough pieces in place that we should be a playoff contender.....and we absolutely be above .500 st home......so buckle up....we have a good team.....Sullivan is still playing with the lines and evaluating talent.....but i think we are ready for a run....

 2+3=BEEER         and RANGER GOALS !!

I'm back, back in the New York Groove
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
I'm back, back in the New York Groove
Back in the New York Groove, in the New York Groove

I watched with glee

 While your kings and queens

Fought for ten decades
For the Gods they made (Jagger-Richards)

If the people of NY were not concerned enough with all the stories and resurfaced videos of Zohran Mandani, then i suppose nothing will ever change their minds...but again, i blog for the history books.......if the earth is still around in 100 years and the internet has not been purged by the mullahs, maybe these posts will shed some light on what was really happening while Nero Fiddled. 

First let me say that I left NY in 2000.......i can make observations, but i do not have a right to complain about whomever they elect. I, like so many others;  chose to move to NJ for some open space and some white Christian neighbors......I wanted the 5 boroughs to stay the same forever so that i could enjoy occasional visits....BUT i wasn't willing to sacrifice my adult life to stay and fight.

Gujarat is a region in Western India....Mandani claims the he is a Gujarat Moslem...he says people are amazed to hear this because PM Modi of India waged a genocide against the Gujarat Moslems (his words). He says defiantly that HE is one of the few to survive.(google it if you like).....such a tale of David and Goliath....some would be impressed.........now here is the truth ....and yes i read multiple accounts from both sides......a group of disgruntled minority moslems, living in the Biggest Hindu country on the Globe, attacked and burned a train of Hindu Pilgrims returning from a worship trip, they killed 59 Hindus.........and so this sparked 3 days of rioting and Hindu mobs attacking the moslems in retaliation ( gee sound familiar yet ?).  The official figures state that 1,044 people lost their lives.....790 of which were Moslems........the mass Genocide that Mandani miraculously survived never happened.......today there are over 5 MILLION Moslems in Gujarat.....so why would anyone be amazed by his existence ?  better question....this was only 24 years ago.....why would he make such outrageous, false claims ?  Because the world is filled with people that NEED a villian.....that crave tik tok conspiracies that make them feel better about themselves....people that can't be bothered by the truth when they are romanticizing by their own perceived victimhood......you know these fucking idiots.......the same ones that STAND with fictitious palestine ....even though Sharia Law calls for their beheading......Zohran must gave a good laugh at the over educated morons that are following his trail of bread crumbs to the alter of their own slaughter.

You see, The Moslems have been playing the long game for centuries, but have made enormous strides the past 100 years....they have a playbook that works very well for them. they infiltrate a region, then attack and massacre the majority .....then use the inevitable retaliation to recruit new naïve members and to sway global opinion as to whom the real victims are. it has been working .....and just by watching the protests in this country, it will continue to work....the simpletons that shun the first POTUS in decades to put the health of America ahead of everyone that is trying to destroy us....the morons that are addicted to the narrative that Israel is responsible for every rainy day.....the purple haired tranny-dykes that think islam is a religion of peace and tolerance........the moslems are not here to assimilate and succeed ( they way we define success) they are here to advance their cause of global dominance and forced conversion.....and like i said they now have a foot in Congress, the Senate, and multiple Mayors and city councils.....

to the people who said "let Mandani win, he'll bankrupt NY and that will be the end of socilaism"  i laugh in your general direction........what happened to Never Forget ? in the same city that saw 3,000 innocent people slaughtered at the hands of Moslems , we now have a Mullah Mayor.......do you really think anyone will hold it against the infiltrators in 20 years if New York goes bankrupt ? ......oh, and in case you forgot.......the real victims of 9/11 were the poor moslems that were afraid to wear a hijab on the subway in the aftermath......you get that through your thick skull Infidel.

2+3= GOATS milk you racist

Just as every cop is a criminal

And all the sinners saints

As heads is tails just call me Lucifer

I'm in need of some restraint

So if you meet me, have some courtesy
Have some sympathy and some taste
Use all your well learned politics
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, mmm yeah

don't speak too soon

 For the wheel’s still in spin

And there’s no tellin’ who that it’s namin’
For the loser now will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin’ (Dylan)

so here we are on election day......the nation once again goes to the Polls and cast their votes for their respective leadership.....I guess King Trump didn't cancel elections just yet.....maybe next year.

although the actual power of the Mayor of NYC may be limited, the psychological impact of electing an anti-Semite  moslem communist cannot be overstated. his mantra of going after the rich , to make things free for the masses is frightening.......and believe me.....it's supposed to be frightening......mandani is not afraid of the 1% club moving out of the city.....he is counting on it.....he wants to buy their precious land....BUT at a discount.........he wants to change the complexion of the city........he wants blue collar white folks to pack and run.....he wants trust fund moslems to buy up everything from the exodus jewish landlords.....that would be a giant step forward for the jihadists and their global intifada.......i think this is a real death struggle......i'm not waving the white  flag just yet.....early voting has been up significantly .....i have to think that benefits both Cuomo and Curtis...time will tell

over in joisey, i think Jack wins big.....and if he does, i hope his first agenda item is to stickup for Jersey resident who are being unjustly singled out by congesting pricing to pay for the MTA's disgustingly bloated budget.......if I am Jack i would workout a plan with Met Life Stadium to use their parking lots for Free Commuter parking Monday-Friday , and then offer free shuttle service to the Secaucus station just a few miles away....if even just 10% were to take this option (9 or 10K) it would hit NY in the pocket book for over $6 million a year........secondly, target NY business with the highest % of NJ residents on their payrolls.......offer them a tax break to incentivize relocation to the Garden State.....lastly , invest in the rails and even the buses, and offer subsidies to encourage NJ residents to leave the car at home and try mass transit again.....but when or if they do ......you then have to offer, clean, fast and reliable service.....it's that simple.

as simple as

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don’t stand in the doorway
Don’t block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There’s a battle outside and it is ragin’
It’ll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin’

i was talkin to my dcotor

 down at the hospital,

he says son it says here you're 27,

but that's impossible.

COCAINE......you look like you could be 45  (Jackson Browne)

it's now painfully clear that is the Govt shutdown is ALL about Obamacare.....both for illegals and legal citizens alike.....you see the projections came out for open enrollment for coverage in 2026.......well it seems that the cost of Obamacare is going up 26%.....IF the republicans cave and give in to subsidies.......and IF they Do Not.......well the costs are projected to double.....so somewhere in a dark cave, Schumer and his band of idiots probably got together and decided they would shut the govt to save Obamacare ....OR.....at least blame the republicans when obamacare implodes.

we all know that Obamacare is the biggest "contribution" to government that the demonrats have made in the past 50 years.....when it ultimately collapses they will have nothing to tout....except the inflation reduction act that created historic inflation....or the infrastructure bill that was just another version of the green new deal , and it hasn't resulted in any notable infrastructure projects......so they somehow have to steer the debate and convince their bases that the Republicans killed obamacare.....it was quite funny to see dipshit Durbin crying about the Republicans not funding his party's failed Monster Socialist Medical plan......but it's par for the course to see the demons punish citizens on behalf of the illegals......they insist on going down with a sinking ship.

Richie Torres represents a section of the Bronx.....a district.....not the full borough..the 15th district in the South Bronx has a total population of 750,000 people....and yesterday he claimed that over 300,000 people in his district receive SNAP benefits.......how many do you think are illegal ?  how many are working OFF the books and should not really be receiving the benefits based on their true income status, how many are adults living in Mammy's apt, playing video games and getting high all day......and how many are legitimate citizens living below the poverty line ? 

In any event....the avg SNAP benefit is $190.00 a month ...multiply that by 300K people and you have a reasonable $57MM a month......peanuts to a communist slob like George Soros.....surely he could slink out of the shadows and write a check to the 15th district....Republican citizens stepped up and ensured that the Military would get paid.....where are all the AWFUL women and wealthy nyc protestors ?  dip into your trust fund and pony up the cash to feed your wonderful neighbors.

on a national level we have 41 million receiving SNAP benefits ....over 7 Billion a month......imagine if we cleaned up the fraudulent claims ? the legitimate claims could probably see their monthly stipend increase to $250 a month.....you would think every American would want to see that happen.......think again......it's enough to make you sick.

6 7 was just declared the word or phrase of the year......it means absolutely nothing in reality, but speaks volumes to today's youth....it is their humorous answer to society........hmmm

2+3=BEEER

now i'm losing touch with reality

and i'm almost out of blow

it's such a fine line, i hate to see it go

Cocaine, running all around my brain

Philosophy, is the talk on a cereal box

This Government shutdown really is a small picture of a much larger problem.......too many elected officials were elected based  off of sound bites or optics......they really don't understand the issues today, and they either do not have a constructive thought or they have become too paralyzed to voice their own ideas........fear that down the road their own words would be used against them.......but here is the thing .....if your thoughts and suggestions are authentic....if they are your own.......if you believe them at your core.......what are you afraid of ? and that eliminates the majority of those governing today........their thoughts belong to the party or their top intern.....they do not understand basic economics, let alone some of the complex stuff they carefully tap dance around..... and so they resort to Bully posturing, Trump derangement sound bites, matador avoidance, Let's have a conversation after these hot microphones are OFF, or my favorite....."my position is available on my website, and I'm either too stupid or lazy to regurgitate what my staff put together".  the sad thing is that those too afraid to govern are being rewarded by the shutdown......the confirmation process for new judges is being blocked/delayed.......air traffic controller new class........pay for the military and other no brainer issues are all idling in the slow lane.....it might be nice if the dbags were also missing paycheks.....but alas, Congress & Senate still get paid as if they were working.......talk about a corrupt system.

for all of about 12 seconds i was rooting for Toronto to beat the hated Dodgers......but that crackhead mayor Ford decided to use our national past time to air commercials , falsely portraying Ronald Reagan of criticizing POTUS use of Tariffs   .....the Reagen foundation immediately cried foul and went on record to say the Gipper was being manipulated by the deceptive commercial.....and in truth President Reagan himself absolutely applied tariffs on Japan because of a threat to National Security.......didn't stop Canada from continuing to air the commercial all weekend......and their target is the SCOTUS and an upcoming hearing for Nov 5th on President Trumps use of tariffs.........talk about a foreign Nation interfering in American Politics ? well of course nobody in our stupid country is even paying attention or understands the intended purpose of the commercials....did i say nobody ?  i stand corrected.....the Great Donn has immediately broken off all discussions with Canada on trade and is planning to Raise their tariffs.......Slainte Baby.

i know it's all part of the judicial game, but it's still disgusting that these defense attorney's are most concerned with how their client can dress for his trial of killing Charlie Kirk ?  it's a blatantly obvious statement that the American jury system is filled with hapless clowns that could easily be swayed by a defendants appearance....and not the facts.

Brian Kelly OUT at LSU.........couldn't happen to a bigger douchebag than Kelly.........I would hate to see Kiflin leave Ol Miss.......but i do hope LSU finds a good coach.

if NYC falls for this act by mandani, they deserve what thy get......he gave a speech last week about 9/11......and how his poor Auntie was afraid to ride the subway in the aftermath because of rampant islamaphobia.......yep, he is serious.......3,000 innocent people murdered by his fellow moslems and his aunt was the true victim........turns out his aunt wasn't even in the country.....and so he quickly pivoted and said he was talking about someone he referred to as auntie......she conveniently died a few years ago.........he talks about affordable housing......but he is a multi millionaire and his wife is even richer.....they live in a rent controlled apartment that was supposed to be for low income individuals......yep....think carefully NY....

Choke me in the shallow water,

before i get too deep

I've been warped by the rain,

  driven by the snow

I'm drunk and dirty don't ya know, and I'm still, willin'
And I was out on the road late at night
I'd seen my pretty Alice in every head light
Alice, Dallas Alice (Lowell George)

nobody had their finger of the pulse of America back in the day quite like Lowell George  and Little Feat....another character of the long dark night taken from us way too soon......but i myself have just extricated myself after 4 long days journeying the roads of the south.....through State parks and national Forests......up mountains, around lakes and so on........we rolled through Greenville, took a respite in the land of JR.......we stopped in Nashville for 48 hours of Mayhem and rounded it out with a Visit to Clemson......saw a hockey game, caught a Blues Traveler concert at the Ryman and ate and drank like a Pirate looks at 60.....

I am Happy to report that America is Alive and Well.........the economy is booming for hardworking Patriots that played by the rules...lowered their heads and endured a lot of BS the past 20 years.....the dark cloud has lifted........and MAGA Nation was out on the streets of Nashville taking a victory lap , enjoying the seasonably warm temps, drinking cold beeeer like oxygen and Loving Life in the USA.

That's not to say that our great nation does not have a long, hard fight in front of us......the truth is the left was smart enough to seize the education system 40 or 50 years ago.....and we have to deal with a lot of people that have been brainwashed by the liberal ideology that globalism/Socialism is better than Capitalism....that open borders and traveling Nomads are better than controlled immigration and protecting our sovereignty , and that by tearing down the top echelon of society you somehow raise the bottom rings of the ladder.........the demonrats own the teachers union and use them as a piggy bank.......they have been fighting hard for decades to eliminate the Catholics schools and now the Charter schools.....they despise choice.....they want one singular voice telling students from 1st grade to college that America isn't exceptional, that we were built by slaves and trans is normal and not a mental disorder...... that it's okay to defy Federal law to protect an illegal alien but don't you dare try to form a sanctuary city for the unborn fetus........and for the first time in our lifetime there was a glimmer of hope on the college campuses.......a beacon of free, honest, truthful speech.......and after he was murdered by a trans adjacent assassin,  i was shocked to learn that conspiracy theories immediately arose to accuse a tired old villian.........Israel.......are they simple enough to believe that everything  bad in the world is the fault of the jewish state or are they clever enough to spew this nonsense as a distraction to the vapid ?

The next two weeks will offer a glimpse into the future of America.........NY stands on the precipice of electing a Jew Hating, Moslem, Socialist as mayor.......Nj may chose another DEI empty suit without a plan or an idea.....even her own party has distanced itself from her lone position on energy costs.......she was admitted to the Naval Academy at a time when anyone with a pair of tits and a pulse was given a free pass.....and she was caught up in a cheating scandal and not permitted to march at Graduation..... and down in Virginia the party of tolerance is supporting an AG Candidate that wants to put a bullet into his opponents head and the head of his children.....and their candidate for Governor can't bring herself to condemn these words......so yes, there is a lot of work ahead of us......

silly side note....the liberal left media is losing their minds because DJT is building a new ballroom on the White House.....using his own $ and Corporate donations.....unfortunately they couldn't delete all the clips of CNN reporting with admiration and glee when Obama spent $200 million of taxpayer $$ to construct a basketball court at the same White House........selective outrage and hypocrisy rule the day.......but hey......at least we still have NASHVILLE.

2+3=BEEER

 And I been from Tucson to Tucumcari

Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me weed, whites and wine
And you show me a sign

I'll be willin', to be movin'
