What I Think of While I’m Drinking My Coffee
- Kamala Harris as my President is almost as plausible as a vegetarian T-Rex
- America is not a country of black or It bleeds red, white, and blue.
- Any young American who disrespects veterans should be treated to a 4 year compulsory draft into America’s Armed Forces.
- Representatives Comer and Jordan have released a comprehensive, almost 300-page report detailing President Biden’s impeachable Every American should read it, cover to cover.
- If all you read, listen to, and watch are CNN, MSNBC, NPR, The New York Times, and The Washington Post, you are a remarkably ill-informed and biased American.
- Imagine for a moment being the first Founding Father to sign the Declaration of Independence, and no one knows your name.
Fire Them All, and Start From Scratch – You Couldn’t Do Any Worse
How can Illinois’ billionaire governor J. B. Pritzker stand up and say he’s proud of his state’s public education? Under his leadership, it has utterly failed. Pritzker and his leaders should all be tossed out on their collective asses for gross incompetence.
I’m not the only one who thinks this debacle is worthy of attention. None other than Vivek Ramaswamy, Elon Musk, and Jordan Peterson helped bring to light the utter failure of the Illinois Public Schools.
In a scathing article published on February 13, 2024, in Wirepoints, journalists Ted Dabrowski and John Klingner exposed that not a single child in 53 Illinois public schools is capable of doing math at grade level. They also stated that when it comes to reading, the failure rate is 30 state schools. This data was from a 2022 published report. According to the article, the 2023 scores, per the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) 2023 Report Card Data is even worse.
In 2023, they reported that there were 67 Illinois public schools where not one pupil was proficient in math at grade level. Somehow, these schools are graduating almost 70% of their students. And they still say they need more money. Money does not improve scores. Clearly, the present disastrous leadership is incapable of anything except whining for more money. HEADS MUST ROLL!
Meanwhile, Chicago’s crime rate is the envy of every Mexican gang. It would not surprise me if the gangs send their young rookies to sharpen their skills in Chicago. With all the murders, robberies, and carjackings, Chicago would provide first-class, on-the-job training ground for future thugs and gang leaders.
Kamala Harris’s Goal of a Single-Payer Healthcare System in America
According to presidential candidate Kamala Harris’s platform, “Medicare for All will cover all medically necessary services, including emergency room visits, doctor visits, vision, dental, hearing aids, mental health, substance use disorder treatment, and comprehensive reproductive healthcare services. Under my Medicare for All plan, we will also expand the program to include other benefits Americans desperately need.”
To pay for this abomination, which will provide government-paid abortions, Harris will tax the country to hell, targeting banks, Wall Street, investors, and of course, the rich who still don’t pay their fair share—whatever that is. Folks, we are nearing $36 trillion in debt as a nation. Socialist Harris’s plan will be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.
Do you think U.S. Treasury securities are the safest investment in the world? Think again. What backs them? The word of a socialist with a printing press? By transferring responsibility to the government to provide healthcare, we will become even more dependent on a government bureaucracy, and in case you haven’t learned yet, the government does practically everything poorly.
Why the United States would want to mirror Cuba’s decrepit healthcare system is beyond me. Yes, excellent medical care is available in Cuba, but only to the elite, politically well-connected, and high-up military officers and their families. Everyone else on the island nation is SOL (shit out of luck). And good luck visiting an official Cuban government pharmacy. Yes, they are neat and spotless with empty shelves devoid of the most needed medicines. Meanwhile, the Cuban government continues to mislead the international community about the stellar results of their socialist healthcare system. Should you doubt that, why not hop a plane to Havana the next time you need surgery, and try your luck on their free, broken healthcare system. Without the historic subsidies from the now-defunct Soviet Union, Cuba stands broke and broken. Just because something is free does not mean it comes without a huge cost.
Fact
On July 2, 1776, the Continental Congress adopted a resolution that the United Colonies of America officially would henceforth be known as the United States of America.
Fiction
The average American cares what Taylor Swift thinks of American politics.
Fact
In 1791, the Bill of Rights was added to the U.S. Constitution. These first 10 amendments should ring as loudly today in the hearts of all Americans.
Fiction
President Joe Biden’s likeness should be added to Mount Rushmore.
More on Kamala? Unfortunately…YES
Kamala Harris must think the American people are functionally illiterate. While that might be true for a thin minority of voters, I believe the vast majority sees that she is an economic and financial illiterate. Listen as she boasts about the strength of the US economy where the majority of jobs gained are in government-supported healthcare or in the US government bureaucracy.
There is no meaningful growth in private sector jobs. In fact, manufacturing is already in a recession, but that is lost on her. Meanwhile, 30-year fixed-rate mortgages, for anyone who wants to buy a home, are a disaster. Case in point, on January 21, 2021, the average interest rate on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was 2.77%. Fast forward to August 16, 2024, and the rate is 6.49%. That’s a 133% increase. The numbers were courtesy of Freddie Mac via the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank.
The Lunatic in Charge of Michigan
I could write about the imbecile (pardon me) lunatic in charge of Michigan until geese begin flying north for the winter, but I digress. Gretchen Whitmer, the Governor of Michigan and co-chair of Vice President Harris’s campaign, proudly proclaimed in a video news interview that Joe Biden is “going to go down as one of the greatest presidents we’ve had in a long time in this country.”
By the way, you might be interested to learn that you can purchase bumper stickers on Amazon that read, My Governor Is an Idiot.” Should you live in Michigan, I would highly encourage you to purchase several for friends and family, and display them proudly.
Even If This Wasn’t True, I Would Still Believe It
During an April 29, 1962, dinner reception at the White House honoring 49 Nobel Prize winners, then-President John F. Kennedy remarked to the audience:
I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.
This Is Profoundly Disturbing
Oh, how times have changed. Stop any Democrat on the street and ask them if they are in favor of completing the southern border wall. You probably already know the answer—Hell NO! They answer the same as the Democratic leadership, all against the wall that Donald Trump built.
Yet…
Barrack Obama: “We simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States, undetected, undocumented, and unchecked.”
Hillary Clinton: “I voted, when I was a Senator, to build a barrier to try to prevent illegal immigrants from coming in.”
Random Thought
Does anyone give a damn about the Jenifer Lopez and Ben Affleck daily nonsense in every paper in America?
If You Think Oil and Gas Energy Independence Is NOT a National Security Issue, Count Yourself Unenlightened
Like many Americans, I am old enough to remember the Arab oil embargo, license plates determining which day of the week the government permitted you to wait in gas lines, and the massive inflation that followed as the price of oil skyrocketed and the Arab nations sought to strangle and bankrupt America. This was America’s reality that began in the fourth quarter of 1973, brought on by our support for Israel in the Arab-Israeli war. By January 1974 (I was driving and in 12th grade), the price of a barrel of oil skyrocketed from under $3 per barrel to almost $12. That’s quadruple, folks, and we had no fracking or energy independence whatsoever. America was vulnerable and at the mercy of hordes that chanted “Death to America.” Make no mistake, our national security is inextricably linked to our energy independence.
President Carter was a well-meaning idiot, kind of like Joe Biden, but at least Carter was an honest idiot. Biden should be hauled off to jail if we can find an honest court in the land to convict him and his family of treasonous activities and enriching themselves at the expense of America. The foreign policies of these two presidents are downright embarrassing. Each one unknowingly drove America off a cliff.
Windmills (China accounts for over 65% of global wind turbine capacity) and solar arrays are not going to keep everyone’s Teslas charged up and on the road. Even head-in-the-clouds Californians realize they don’t have enough electrical generating capacity to keep those turbines spinning to create enough electricity without brownouts and $700 monthly electric bills. I will point out as I have done in the past that there is a geologic formation known to many Americans as the Marcellus Shale that was created hundreds of millions of years ago under what we call the Appalachian Basin.
The areas of the Eastern United States found under New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, New Jersey, Tennessee, Virginia, Kentucky, and West Virginia ALL lay claim to a portion of the massive area containing more than 400 trillion cubic feet of natural gas resources that can supply America’s energy needs for hundreds of years. In case you fail to recognize the significance of that, let me reiterate—AMERICAN ENERGY INDEPENDENCE.
According to a press release of the United States Geological Survey (USGS), an agency of the United States government, Director Jim Reilly stated, “Knowing where these resources are located and how much exists is crucial to ensuring our nation’s energy independence.” Well, at least one person in the United States government cares about American energy independence and the importance of our oil and gas industry. Yes, there will be a future where Americans do not rely on fossil fuels for energy, but unlike the Biden Administration’s dishonest dialogue, it is not in 2030—a scant six years from today. I believe in American ingenuity, something that would be totally lost under a socialist form of government where self-interest and the profit incentive no longer exist.
Medical Debt Is Next on the Forgiven List
It should come as no surprise that Kamala Harris favors extinguishing billions of dollars of medical debt, just like she favored, voted for, and openly advocated forgiveness of student loan debt. All this is to buy votes. Here is what you can expect next:
- Forgiveness of gambling debts
- Forgiveness of auto loans
- Forgiveness of credit card debt
You Can Be Disheartened, or You Can Make a Massive Difference
Americans can stay timid, or they can get off their asses and help get this country back on the right track. I’m not asking that they do great things. I’m asking that they do something like take responsibility for their actions and their inactions. Maybe they will make an extra effort to not only vote but to tell their friends, neighbors, and colleagues to get to the polls and make their voices heard on Election Day.
So let’s make this personal. Would YOU—yes, I mean YOU—commit to convincing one who is apathetic and uninvolved to get involved, take an interest, and make a difference? What if millions of us did that? Do you see where I am going with this? Hey, catch the patriotic fever!
Folks, the torch of liberty is flickering, and God help us if it goes out.
The purpose of our government is to protect its citizens, to establish and protect its borders, to enforce the rule of law, and to make sure all citizens are equal under the law. This is spelled out in much greater detail in the United States Constitution. It is worthy of your time to re-read it. Most people have not sat down to read it since high school, if they even read it then. That’s a damn shame because we need more Americans to understand that this country was created over much bloodshed when the King of England decided his Redcoats should quell the rebellion and kill all the rebels. With the help of over 200,000 men, led by George Washington, the giant was awakened, the British were defeated, and the world was never the same.
There are those out there today fighting for our rights and our liberties. You don’t always see or hear them, but they are there. They believe in separation of powers. They believe that stacking the Supreme Court is wrong. They believe that government officials are not above the law. They don’t take kindly to the Executive Branch of government making laws. That right is reserved solely for Congress. I believe that Donald Trump, RFK, James Jordan, James Comer, Ted Cruz, Congressman Corey Mills, and others are part of that movement, and that’s why I support them.
I’ve written before about Judicial Watch and its president, Tom Fenton. It is an organization that fights against government corruption. It sees the grave damage done to our country by those in power and uses the law as a battering ram to beat them into submission. I implore you to go to the website and look around. You will be amazed at the extent of its vision and active battles against government overreach and dishonesty. The organization sues federal and state governments in court and often wins. It exposes voter fraud, government deceit, and law- breaking. I support this organization and ask you to consider doing so as well. If you choose to support them, tell Tom that The Equal Opportunity Critic sent you. Here is a link to the website:
Democratic Groupthink Is America’s Cancer
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines groupthink as “a pattern of thought characterized by self-deception, forced manufacture of consent, and conformity to group values and ethics.”
Should you look around today’s America and not see that this is happening from coast to coast, you most likely would not notice a pissed off bull on your front porch. In other words, it’s a delusional ideology and extreme bias forced on willing Americans who are not paying attention.
Listen to the words of the unhinged Squad members, the progressive members of Congress who band together for everything progressive and socialist. They see themselves as social justice warriors. Their ideology is one-sided, that the U.S. Treasury must clothe, warm, care for, cuddle, educate, and bathe everyone, regardless of citizenship, and ultimately bankrupt future generations that will be saddled with massive national debt that can never be repaid.
They seek to sway opinions of the ill-informed and lazy minds who clamor for more and more entitlements. They are on a quest to destroy our republic from within. It would be better if they were confined to Guantanamo for a decade. Let’s see if that would change their tune.
What My Washington Semester Program Really Achieved
As a political science major in the 1970s, I was accepted to my college’s Washington Semester Program. It was an opportunity for a dozen students to study in Washington, DC, while interacting and working in various government agencies and Congress. We all lived in a seedy converted hotel on Rhode Island Avenue located in the armpit of town, nowhere near Capitol Hill or the fancy tourist hotels.
The most important thing I learned during my time studying and working on Capitol Hill was that our government was more dysfunctional than I had ever suspected. It made me question my choice of major—political science—and convinced me that I made a massively ill-informed decision. Would I have gained more skills working in my dad’s laundry? You betcha! Did I make a wise choice? NOPE!
Had I majored in marketing or sales (were they even taught at my college?), I might actually have come away with abilities that were in demand by employers. It’s kind of like today’s gender study majors. Those graduates show up for an interview in yoga pants with their iPhones in one hand and a Starbucks $7 latte in the other.
Anyway, I have no one but myself to blame. It kind of reminds me of my dad who often said he ONLY made one mistake in judgment each year. But boy, was mine a big one! Looking back, I noted that members of Congress couldn’t even agree on which bagels to order for their committee meetings, so how did they have a chance in hell of governing effectively? Did I want to be part of that? The simple answer was no. So I dusted myself off and made a promise to develop new skills that were in demand by employers who paid well.
My first homework assignment for myself was to get some self-improvement books because I recognized that I needed a lot of improvement. The only one responsible for that was the idiot looking back at me in the bathroom mirror. I started studying Brian Tracy, Jim Rohn, Tony Robbins, Og Mandino, and others. Over time, it occurred to me that members of Congress would benefit by reading these books as well because it was very evident that they were as ignorant as I was
