Made Glorious Summer ?

(Made Glorious Summer ?)

By this son of York ? Or that son of Biden ? The so-called plea deal between Hunter Biden that will keep junior out or prison, though lesser men would have been sentenced to terms. But because Hunter is his father's son, and probably the bread winner of the "family" and with the investigation a five years duration, the result, paltry as it is, was only the only possible outcome.


Like the reception to Special Counsel John Durham. He was testifying before the House Judiciary Committee and conformed what was already known. That Hillary Clinton paid for as fake dossier and using FBI allies to do it. Then former Director Comey used his termination to initiate the Muller investigation. There was no legal justification for the FISA warrants against Trump in the first place as everything had been fruit form a poisonous tree, so to speak. As for Trump's exoneration ?


All would seem to be taking place in the wake of the Chinese getting a foot-hold in the Western Hemisphere by a new spy/military base in Cuba. There had been a time when the Soviets had placed intermediate range ballistic missiles (IRBM) on that captive island. People might remember that the episode caused the Cuban Missile Crisis and World War III was only a heartbeat away.


Does the President know ? More to the point, does he even care ? Hunter, Durham, Chinese Cubans ? The President has other concerns. The new Iran nuke deal. Over-spending on Ukraine. And this guy named Bobby Jr. wants to chat. So, on this, the first day of summer, where Stonehenge gets lit up and Druids dance around. What is being illumined now is the strange relationship Biden apparently has with Beijing. Getting back to the President's son, not only with China but remember Burisma as well.


Biden has low poll numbers. He and Hunter are under House investigations. That being said, there is an infrastructure of support in the Department of Justice and other law enforcement to run interference. As long as that is in place, the most severe punishment will only be a slap on the wrist.

Siege Of The Alamo

(Siege Of The Alamo) Any visitor to Downtown San Antonio will recognize the City's most famous landmark, the Alamo. An old Spanish mission that means "Cottonwood" in English was the site where the likes of Jim Bowie, William Barrett Travis and Davy Crockett and about another 185 Texians defended the Mission and its compound for thirteen days against the Army of General Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana and his 5,000 troops. The garrison was finally reduced on March 6, 1836. However, the Texian defeat at the Alamo and another one at Goliad, bought time for General Sam Houston time to fall back and then face Santa Ana at San Jacinto. There, Houston's army surprised the Mexicans and yelling "Remember the Alamo, Remember Goliad !" all but wiped out the Mexican force. Santa Ana was captured and was forced to recognize the Republic of Texas. Which is now the State of Texas and, like 1836 Texas War of Independence, there is a new invasion from Mexico. Not the armed body o

TEQUILA !

(TEQUILA !) Happy Cinco de Mayo or May 5th. One can hope that a lot of you out there are awash in inebriation, seeking to mainline tequila shots or enjoying a nice margarita on the patio. Or, in other words, relax. Take a breath. De-compress. May 5th as it happens is the anniversary of Mexico's victory over French "occupation" of Mexico by Emperor Maximillian, brother to Austrian monarch Maria Theresa in what has been called the Battle of Puebla. The reason France was in Mexico in the first place was that Mexico, after the Mexican-American War and a more civil conflict called the Reform War, had bankrupted Mexico City. Mexican President at the time was Benito Juarez, who repudiated all foreign debt, of which France, Spain, and the United Kingdom were all major holders. A naval expedition was dispatched to Veracruz and France's Napoleon III thought it would be a good idea to establish a French "empire" in Mexico. But, on May 5th, 1862, in the aforementioned B

Intended Consequences

(Intended Consequences) For those Readers who live in the Tri-State area, who had the earthquake this morning, just be still.  There is a postulate called the Law of Un-Intended Consequences. Basically, it says that even with the best intentions, negative results sometimes happen. However, there are also instances when a negative result is precisely the desired outcome. Like with the Israel- Hamas war where the Biden Administration continues to press for an all but unilateral ceasefire on the part of Israel. In California, the new $20/HR minimum wage is wreaking havoc on the fast food industry. And finally, after depleting the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, oil has now become too expensive. How many times must the Biden Administration think it can influence Israeli affairs ? How many times must Israel ignore it. Threats from the President have become redundant at this point but is Biden really prepared to cut Israel loose ? In the middle of the greatest crisis Israel is facing since the
