Happy future birthday to James Tiberius Kirk

And to William Shatner, who (most fortuitously) shares his birthday 94 years ago and 198 years in the future

Robert Mueller has passed. 

Much like Mark Twain, I will not attend the funeral, but I will send a card saying I approve.

It isn’t his partisan investigation witch hunt for “Russian Collusion” (which was pretty bad and for which he should have been prosecuted) but rather the thing he turned the FBI into after 9-11…his part in creating and controlling the Department of Homeland Security and what he did with the FBI. For that, I cannot help but hope he gets his just reward….and does not pass the Pearly Gates.

In case you haven’t heard (I was busy yesterday and didn’t hear until late last night), Chuck Norris died .

‘Tis said the devil offered to step aside and allow him to take his place, but Chuck declined and is headed in the other direction.

A good actor, and from what I hear, a good man. The world is a little less great today because he is gone.

How man of the Somali Daycare money recipients have been arrested, much less tried or convicted? How many of them have been shut down and their assets frozen for fraudulent business practices?

Where is the DOJ? (Much less the Minnesota cops)…

Who is in jail for all the fraud?

Or are Pamela Bondi and her employees as useless and absent as they appear to be in the Epstein investigation?

For those who keep track of such things.

As primary elections start across the country, (already happened in some states) may Blue States are claiming that ICE agents showing up at polling places is “Illegal Election Interference”.

If Illegal aliens aren’t voting in our elections, what does ICE or Border Patrol agents outside of polling places matter? Who is being intimidated?

Somehow, for some reason, I  think the claim that “No Illegal alien invaders are voting”  doesn’t hold water. I think someone is lying

Anyone who calls in sick now that the TSA folks are actually, you know, missing a paycheck (up til now it has all been theater) should be fired. The news reports of their agents suddenly being evicted or having to donate plasma are crap,

If you are an “Essential Worker” then you need to show up or be fired. Period. It’s a part of the game. Part of your terms of employment. 

They only missed being paid, only didn’t get a paycheck, last Friday, so it isn’t like they have not been paid for weeks or months…they’ve missed a few days. And they knew it was coming. The news reports of their agents suddenly being evicted or having to donate plasma are crap,

And make no mistake, the TSA management is part of this “Sick-Out” bullshit. They know what is going on and are actually encouraging it, even if only by tolerating the behavior. They want long lines at airports and are hoping to close a major airport in order to make things as painful as they can for the public in order to get their funding restored as quickly as possible. They too should be fired for this allowing this crap.

When one third or more of the TSA workforce decides to suddenly call in sick (it is, apparently normal for 3-5% to be out on any given day) that is a job action, and it is illegal.

At this point, the TSA folks are breaking the law. If they can’t show up for work, then they should be fired at a minimum.

Their aim is, apparently, to have enough TSA “agents”  call off in a single day that they ca shut down a major airport to force their funding being restored by making life as miserable as possible for the people they are supposed to be serving.

If the agency is truly “Essential”, then the management and our government needs to act like it, and enforce attendance. If they aren’t gonna do that, then we can see, they are demonstrating,  that the TSA really isn’t “Essential”.

Anything else is just playing games.

Enough of this bullshit. Allowing these folks to stay home and to excuse that behavior is as false as the stupidity during the last two budget battles when the Parks Department coned off scenic overlooks and closed parks that never had Park Rangers before the budget battle just to inconvenience tourists and make the public as unhappy as possible.  This TSA theater is the same sort of thing.

“Essential” or not. Get in or get out. Decide.

Simple as that.

“The right to bear arms is not so we can enforce out will on others, but rather so others cannot force their will upon us”

“History doesn’t repeat, however; it often rhymes”

“A year from now, all the things you are worrying about today will be forgotten”

“If all women are crazy, you might as well pick a pretty one

“Most people don’t want the truth, they want comforting words and support”

“That which leaves, friend or lover, was never truly yours.”

“Always keep your clothes and weapons where you can find them in the dark”

‘If you are unwilling to sacrifice for what you desire, that desire will become the sacrifice”

“People jealous of your success will often mention how lucky you are,….discounting the hard work, motivation, early mornings, late nights, sacrifices, fear, and self doubt that went into that success”

“The end of a journey with someone is also a part of that journey”

Y’know, every time there is a weather event we hear (often from the meteorologists, who should know better) how the “extreme” weather is caused by Climate Change….especially if it is an even wherein the temps are slightly warmer than average. Always pushing the Glowbal Warming narrative

But, strangely, not a single weather presenter (many aren’t meteorologists) has mentioned the fact that Tuesday was the COLDEST St Patrick’s day in 60 years…..Funny how that works, innit? Must be Glowbal Cooling or something.

Of course they only mention when it is a warm event.

Or it could just be weather.
