So the excuse for suspending new permitting for Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) export projects back in January, when it took place, was that there was “uncertainty about the security of the supply for domestic use beyond the 2020’s” ….All well and good. A good excuse for stopping the permitting and exports.

Except now, Joe (or his handlers, anyway) has said that he is willing to reverse the ban AS LONG AS HE GETS FURTHER FUNDING FOR UKRAINE.

Interesting, innit? Either he was lying about his reasons then, or he is lying now….or he is willing to sell out the security of the United States energy supply in the future to get funding for Zelensky in the short term. One wonders what sort of kickbacks are promised to Joe, his brother, and his son for this funding made him change his mind about the LNG ban so quickly…..

So which is it…was he lying then, about the reasons, or is it that he no longer needs the lie and is just using it as a bargaining chip.

(as an aside, I have to wonder what exactly Ukraine is using to pressure our President and many members of our Congress to continue to push for additional money to be sent to Ukraine…money that is, essentially, unaccountable…..despite ever increasing opposition by the citizenry of the US….yet they are still considering and pushing for that funding…..what are the incentives?…I mean, they’ve even gotten to Mike Johnson….Is there that much money available in kickbacks? Or are our politicians selling themselves for cheap? )

I didn’t win the Powerball.

This is gonna put a wrench in my retirement plans.

Hookers, booze, and blow are expensive, you know.

I mean, Covid “helped” last time…..What with all the Mail-In ballots that were manipulated, adjusted and otherwise allowed.

We could expect nothing less this time around….should we?

‘This could be 100 times worse than Covid’: Bird flu warning from scientists who say HALF of infections with H5N1 in people are fatal – as White House says it’s ‘monitoring’ the situation

Battlespace Prep and all that….

The Left Leaning (and Anti Israel/Pro-“palestinian”) media can’t wait to tell us how terrible it is that the Israeli military killed a bunch of aid workers….

Now, lets point out a few things: This was at night, with unlighted vehicles, not daytime. Look like the enemy, get treated like the enemy. You gotta ask what the folks were doing travelling at nigh in an unlighted convoy of vehicles. Odd, that.

Further, do the Media bother to tell us about all the other aid workers killed around the world every year by other militaries? Generally those deaths are ignored. Why is this incident so high profile?

The only reason that these deaths happened at all, along with all the other folks in Gaza, is because the “Palestinians” chose to support Hamas, and to hide them and camouflage them as they coordinated their attack on Oct 7.  The people in Gaza supported those who started this, and they are reaping the rewards for it.

Don’t wanna get stung? don’t kick the hornets nest

Migrants, I mean, Illegal ones,

REVEALED: The U.S. cities Biden is flying hundreds of thousands of migrants in controversial program that sparked national security fears

It is bad enough that the Biden Border Patrol folks are bringing in all these people.

It’s worse that they are completely un-vetted, un-tested for diseases, just let into the country and given free handouts and housing paid for by the US taxpayer.

Anyone complicit in this sort of shit, from Biden on down, needs to be hounded out of government service, lose his or her pension, and be beaten with a stick.

I include the contractors who are flying and bussing these people. These people need to be barred from ever doing business with any Federal agency….and if possible, their licenses pulled. They are aiding and abetting treason.

Now the Blue Sanctuary cities are turning on each other:

I find this amusing. Incredibly amusing.

Denver warns new migrants to leave sanctuary city and move elsewhere – saying that their lack of resources means asylum seekers will ‘suffer’

‘The opportunities are over,’ Carrera says in Spanish. ‘New York gives you more. Chicago gives you more. So I suggest you go there where there is longer-term shelter. There are also more job opportunities there.’

It’s great to be all high and mighty and Virtue Signaling until you have to bear the load and pay the cost of what you preach, innit?

By an old member at my range…

That today was the start of “Operation Iceberg”….the start of the Battle for Okinawa.

Just take a minute to reflect on the fact that we can laugh, and joke and prank each other today, but for some back then, it was a different story.

Johns father was lucky…he was only wounded. But he remembers….So should we.

This is the one single day of the year that people actually check what they read on the internet  for truthfulness before believing it and reposting.

But just because you think a symbol is hateful or racist, or otherwise offensive is no reason for the law to allow you to force others to not use it.

Fury as FDNY firefighters are forced to remove Stars and Stripes honoring 9/11 heroes after Democrat lawmaker branded it a ‘fascist symbol’ 

The ‘thin red line’ flag, which is a black-and-white American flag with a red line across the middle, is meant to show solidarity with firefighters who have fallen or been injured on the job.

The man reportedly called the flag a ‘fascist symbol’ and asked to know why it remained up.

I really don’t care that you find a flag or other symbol to be racist or hateful or intimidating…..I find the Black Lives Matter flag, and the LGBTQ flag, offensive…but I will support your right to fly it regardless because that is part of the freedoms we enjoy as US citizens.

People need to be told, at some point, to shut up and go home.

FDNY Deputy Chief Joseph Schiralli needs to be quietly allowed to find another job.

I hope you have friends and family to celebrate it with.

Please, remember why it is a holiday.

Think about those who are serving somewhere that can’t be home for Easter.
