If they can do it to them, they can do it to you as well:

Look: I like the idea of making life difficult for those rich Russian folks who were supporting the Putin Regime….Without their support, Putin would not have  the power he does. Getting them to put pressure on him to end the invasion of Ukraine is a wonderful thing. But here is something to think about:

The US Government froze assets, impounded property, and otherwise waged economic war against those rich (Filthy Rich!) Russians…

Did they commit a crime? Were they even accused of committing a crime? Were there trials? A hearing? Any evidence presented?

What happened to the Rule of Law? When I was growing up, my parents taught me that it was the Rule of Law and the associated framework of protections from government overreach that separated the United States of America from all other countries in the world.…but that was a long time ago….more than half a century…. I guess that has changed.

If the US Government can perpetrate such acts in the name of convenience, just to piss the Rich Russian folks off, so they apply pressure on Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin, what is to say they cannot do so with YOUR assets? Say you go to a protest and the Feds decide that you are a troublemaker…..Or your brother, or father or son does something and is branded a troublemaker, and they wish to make your life miserable in order to discourage him from continuing in his protest( or other actions) which make the State uncomfortable….Or a close friend…..Or some members of your church.

Canada did it to those protesters in the “Great Honkening” just a few months ago….but that was Canada not the United States….but now? I dunno if there is a difference anymore.

If they can do it to these “Oligarchs” who have not committed a crime (nor even been accused of committing a crime) what is to stop them from using such tactics on you and your bank account and your property?

“Nice retirement account you have there….shame if somethin’ happened to it….”

Seriously….think about what I say. Your car impounded, locked out of your (legally possessed) home…your bank accounts seized without even a pretext, your credit cards revoked or suspended…..all to apply pressure on SOMEONE ELSE or because you pissed off the wrong Officer of the State.

 

Vaccinated Democrat lawmakers get covid at maskless retreat

And here all this time we’ve been told by the DNC types that Covid was gonna kill us all if we didn’t get the Jab and wear Face Diapers forever…

Yet they had a retreat where masks were optional…and they were ALL vaccinated.  7 Lawmakers are positive and all are symptomatic. 

So much for their lies. I will believe that the disease is a terrible killer when they start acting like it. They certainly don’t act like they believe it.

Remember this when they tell you about the NEXT “variant”….

What is it about “Woke” corporations?

So DuckDuckGo decided that I am not able to determine what is “Disinformation”. Huh. Not like I’ve been determining who is lying to me for most of my adult life. Not like I;’ve been able to determine what internet sites, what newspapers, what TV news organizations or what political party is lying to me.

I’m old enough to remember when the only on-ramp to the internet for most people was via a college log-in and when most web pages were text-based. There have been disinformation sites since those dark ages, and ther likely always will be.

I don’t need a web browser company to tell me what is RightSpeak and what is WrongSpeak. I don’t trust any of the media anymore, nor do I trust the folks at Microsoft nor Goggle to tell what I should believe. Now I can’t trust DuckDuckGo, either. Apparently they think I can’t make my own determination….and that they want me to trust them to do the filtering for me. Yeah, that is like letting Snopes tell me what is truth.

How can I trust that they too won’t be biased like Google?

So, currently using Brave with Ecosia (not Duck Duck go on Chrome anymore) as the bowser, but am open to suggestions for a browser that thinks that I am intelligent enough to smell bullshit when I step in it. I am, after all, not a Leftist Millennial who can be easilyh led.

“They got what they ordered”

Kamala Harris said the Democratic voters “Got what they ordered” and that the DNC should stand proud of their accomplishments before the midterms.

‘Our task is to show people that, in many ways, they got what they ordered,’ the vice president said Saturday
While much of Biden’s planned agenda has failed at the steps of Congress the party is touting the American Rescue Plan and the bipartisan infrastructure bill
‘A lot of what they demanded they got and so let’s get out there as we do and remind them…because we know that they will show up again,‘ Harris said

Yep, she’s right. Anyone who bothers to look at recent DNC history should know that every time a Democrat is president (especially when there is a DNC majority in Congress) we get higher energy prices, runaway inflation, less national security, more regulation, less freedoms and a higher cost of living. Carter, Clinton, Barry the O and now Biden.

The American voters (less the Margin of Fraud and Midnight (Found) Votes) got exactly what they voted for. Enough of them, anyway, that adding a few suitcases full of fraudulent votes in the right precincts and a few votes by dead people could sway the election.

Sadly, she is also correct that the DNC voters will show up again to vote for her side. Blacks and Hispanics as well, even though they are always at the bottom of the Democrats list and the DNC policies always hurt them the worst and early.
