Our Election and the Supreme Court
Joe Biden and his family had a pow-wow at Camp David over the weekend and convinced Joe Biden to stay in the Presidential Race, even though several LIBERAL MEDIA NEWS OUTLETS called for him to DROP OUT of the race as a result of his poor performance in the debate.
As a result, the LIBERALS have gone on the attack again using the recent Supreme Court decision on immunity directing it towards Donald Trump.
There attack is completely MISLEADING or an attempt to mislead the general public.
While the Supreme Court's decision does favor Donald Trump regarding several of his recent and pending jury trials, it was not just a decision favoring Donald Trump but was a decision FOR ALL PRESIDENTS PAST AND FUTURE.
Obama, Clinton, and Carter as well as Bush are free from any criminal prosecution while in office. While this may seem like a minor point, it is actually a HUGE POINT because it is NOT JUST FOR TRUMP but for all presidents.
It amazes me that the Democrats continue to mislead the public just because the Supreme Court made a decision that went against their beliefs.
The Supreme Court interprets the US Constitution and sometimes its decision favor one party over another party but that does not mean they are BIASED... it just means their interpretation is different.
AOC for instance wants to remove certain justices from the Supreme Court via the impeachment process because they did not agree with her. To do this would be a corruption of POWER. It is this corruption of POWER that will destroy DEMOCRACY not the opinions of politicians or the President.

November Election Worries and Concerns
Reflecting upon the debate between Biden and Trump the other night, while some say there was a clear winner, my thoughts were NEITHER CANDIDATE is suitable to be POTUS.
From the very beginning, I have been against Biden since he reversed everything that Trump had done just for SPITE. However, Trump had a difficult time articulating himself or providing the audience with what he would actually do.
However, it is true that the rest of the world would prefer dealing with the timid Biden as opposed to the unpredictable Trump. And while what happens on the global stage is important, I would think what happens at home is of more importance.
- We are a extremely divided country
- We have a sluggish economy brought about by inflation
- We have a military that is rapidly degrading
- We have 10-15 million illegal immigrants in our country
- We have enormous influx of illegal drugs in our country
- We have an alarming increase of crime and violence in many of our cities
- We have a piss poor education system in our country
- We have a racist problem in our country dealing with blacks and Jews and Hispanics
These are the issues that need to be dealt with and I still do not think, except for one or two of them, that either candidate has the ability to deal with all of them... not because he couldn't but because he does not want to.
As our population increases, I believe that our general intelligence increases as well... and yet, this increasing intelligence is willing to accept the status quo for fear of losing more... PLUS there is an increasing number of young citizens who want the federal government to take care of them like their parents did.
That means, they want more SOCIALISM...
I don't believe that the USA will become FULLY SOCIALISTIC, but I do believe the more socialistic we become, the more it will slow down the growth of our economy further exacerbating our quality of life in the future.
That future could further be disrupted by aggressive actions on the part of China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. Our previous government actions have created a growing hatred of the USA. While those prior actions may or may not have been justified, they have place us in an uncomfortable position globally.
Knowing all of this does not help, in my mind, ease the frustration and concern for the November Presidential election. Biden is clearly mentally incompetent and while Trump has mellowed slightly, his actions could be disastrous. Unfortunately, there is NO ONE ELSE to substitute at this stage in the game, and we will just have to live with the election's consequences.
Neuralink's Brain Implants
In January, Neuralink implanted its device in the brain of Noland Arbaugh,
its first patient.(Neuralink)
Hacking my brain implant wouldn't do much, Noland Arbaugh asserted, adding, "You might be able to see like some of the brain signals.
Neuralink's first recipient Noland Arbaugh has seen promising results since he received the brain chip by Elon Musk's company in January. But can the chip be hacked?
Noland Arbaugh said yes as he was questioned about the possibility of humans being hijacked and becoming cyborgs. READ MORE...

The Month of July
School boards extended the school year so they could justify giving teachers a higher salary. And even though their salary increased, the quality of their instructional teaching did not. If anything, it decreased.
Not only is July an indication of mid-summer, it is also an indication when backyard gardens start bearing fruit. So far, we have been eating cucumbers, yellow squash, and zucchini out of our garden. Cucumbers in salads, yellow squash in soups and casseroles, and Zucchini chopped up and friend with onion and olive oil.
In fact, we have gotten so much yellow squash and zucchini that we have been able to freeze several bags for the fall/winter.
July also brings with it, in three days, the annual celebration for our independence from Great Britain. When we celebrate the 4th, we seldom think about the sacrifice our ancestors made in order for us to have the freedoms we enjoy.
Traditionally, the meal is composed of hamburgers, hotdogs, coleslaw, potato salad, baked beans, apple pie, watermelon, and homemade ice cream. Most of those items will be served at our house this year.
While inflation has taken a hold upon many households, it will not stop Americans from spending the money to enjoy the 4th and pay off the debt later. We need this kind of celebration in our lives right now, especially when many of us are concerned about our future.
Most of the time, the rest of July is devoted to family vacations either at a beach, in the mountains, or visiting some tourist attraction with family and friends. It is a time to relax and enjoy being alive.
For those of us who do not take vacation during the month of July, like my wife and I, we spend time enjoying the comforts of being outside most of the day. While the yard may need mowing, the house pressure washed, or the deck stained, we will still spend most of our days outside.
Many of us enjoy the warmth of the summer and for those who do, the month of July is considered one of the best months of the year.
Joe Biden's America
His performance was another confirmation of the Special Counsel Hur Report that stated Biden was an old man with a bad memory...
Since the Democrats DO NOT have a reliable substitute for Biden, they are now saying that Biden performed better than Trump at the debate. This is after several LIBERAL MEDIA OUTLETS called for him to drop out of the race.
WHO ARE THEY TRYING TO FOOL?
Unfortunately, Biden is no longer capable of making tough decisions that impact our domestic as well as global policies. It is no longer about the Democrats and their power, it is about what is best for the USA.
Donald Trump, believe it or not, is the lesser of the two evils.
Let that comment sink in for a minute... once you do, you will realize the importance of that statement.
Trump is not an ideal President. He created a strong economy and full employment, but some economists say his policies would have hurt us in the long run. Maybe so... maybe not... but that is still better, if it were to happen again, that Biden's mental incompetence.
Biden's mental incompetence will be manipulated by our global enemies to their advantage. We also know, by default, that Biden is not the one who is making the decisions. And finally, if something were to seriously happen to him, that would leave us with KAMALA HARRIS... she was the first candidate to drop out of the Democratic Primary Race.
What does that tell you about the SAFETY OF AMWERICA???
Reminiscing
.jpg)
Perhaps I am just too sentimental for my age, but I am extremely sad that the USA is turning into a country that I do not recognize, nor do I like anymore.
My America is the America of the 1950s, 60s, 70s, and 80s. It was a country of innocence and wonder, of trust and respect, of hard work and loyalty, of an appreciation for authority, and it was a time where most of us had very little but made the most of what we had.
Perhaps, I am just too naive, too romantic, too sensitive to make the transformations that I need to make in order to live and survive in a world that has literally GROWN UP before my eyes. Sometimes, I think it has aged faster than me, becoming more bitter and hateful each day.
- There is no respect for authority
- There is no respect for personal property
- There is no trust to be given to friends and family
- There is no desire to understand anyone
- There is only what's in it for me
Our government tries to undermine the governments of foreign countries in the hopes they will be more like us.
Our companies manufacture products with a built in obsolescence of 3-5 years to guarantee repeat business.
Our law enforcement typically breaks the law in order to catch and prosecute criminals.
Our Politicians make all these promises with the intentions of never fulfilling them, spending more time on re-election that doing what is right for the people.
Our companies care more about profits than they care about employees or building quality products.
AND YET, we want the rest of the world to be like us and accept our democratic republic lifestyle.
This is simply not the America that I grew up 76 years ago, and it is not that I am ashamed as to what she has become, it is more like disappointed and sad that such a once great country has now lost its way.
Faster than the Speed of Light
Researchers have confirmed that quantum entanglement persists between top quarks, the heaviest known fundamental particles.
Physicists have demonstrated quantum entanglement in top quarks and their antimatter partners, a discovery made at CERN. This finding extends the behavior of entangled particles to distances beyond the reach of light-speed communication and opens new avenues for exploring quantum mechanics at high energies.
An experiment by a group of physicists led by University of Rochester physics professor Regina Demina has produced a significant result related to quantum entanglement—an effect that Albert Einstein called “spooky action at a distance.”
Entanglement concerns the coordinated behavior of minuscule particles that have interacted but then moved apart. Measuring properties—like position or momentum or spin—of one of the separated pair of particles instantaneously changes the results of the other particle, no matter how far the second particle has drifted from its twin. In effect, the state of one entangled particle, or qubit, is inseparable from the other. READ MORE...
