Since my life is relatively boring I am switching to the status of the country and world.
We stopped watching the news for good reason. All that is being spewed 'officially' from the White House press secretary is only being told to Fox news and their affiliates. No other news agencies are allowed in the press room. There are a few token foreign correspondents but they are never called on. This is not freedom of the press, this is repression of the free press. The press secretary was asked what he is doing about the price of eggs (that was part of his campaign promises of course). All she said was that during Biden's administration they killed thousands of chickens. No reason, just a blanket statement with no context. To make it look like to Fox viewers that Biden just decided to tell the government to kill chickens to drive up the cost of eggs.
There is rampant Bird Flu (HN1) running through different parts of the country and other places that is forcing farmers to destroy flocks to prevent it from spreading.
He has commuted the sentences and released all the January 6 felons that were responsible for killing, maiming police officers and defacing and damaging the building. A few of them have already sworn to go after the ones that put them in jail.
One of them was pulled over in a traffic stop in Indiana (I think), and resisted arrest when they discovered he had a weapon, he became violent and it ended up with one of the cops shooting him. He didn't survive. Thoughts and prayers.... may he rot forever.
Oh and he's also locked up any information sites like the CDC, pulled us out of the WHO and started the paperwork again to pull out of NATO. He has 'technically' renamed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America and is renaming Denali Mountain back to Mt McKinley.
They are trying to implement everything that we were warned about during the election campaign with Project 2025. Everything in that document is being implemented not by the Tangerine Traitor, Felon in Chief, but by the ones who orchestrated that document and interfered (unsubstantiated) with the election by voter suppression and disinformation.
Federal grants and monies going to organizations like Head Start, Medicaid and other vital and necessary help is being frozen. This is illegal. Oh and he also said he was going to withold federal aid money to CA for the wildfires and won't release it until we change the voter laws so everyone must have an ID to vote (we already do) and....::checks notes:: 'turn on the faucet in northern california to bring water down to LA to fight the fires'. Yes, he is ransoming the federal aid money until we cave in to his 'demands'. Our wonderful governor Gavin Newsom has called it for what it is and has dug into surplus funds to provide aid until the federal money is released.
TT 'fired' 18 Inspector Generals without notice which is also illegal. 30 days and valid reasons must be given. None of that happened. He is treating running the country like the failed businesses he ran dry and into the ground. Which means people will be losing jobs, support, funding.... all because he wants total control like a dictator
I am getting my information from reputable and neutral sources that I have been following for the past year. Jay Kuo, Heather Cox Richardson and a few others.
Every time the TT announces anything it is a blow to everything that we have grown accustom to and has benefited from for decades.
He wants to by Greenland and wants to buy back the Panama Canal. Absolute lunacy that is meant to distract us from keeping track of the other things he's doing.
All of this is so that he has a 'legacy' that people will speak of for decades. In his own warped and egomaniacal, mentally deficient, emotionally stunted mind he thinks this is going to make him the greatest President ever. In actuality it is making him a dictator and those who have been paying attention are pushing back.
the IG that were fired said 'no, we aren't leaving as that is an illegal order'. Other organizations are also being occupied by non related personnel that won't know what the heck they are doing.
The current rage of papers he's signing may well impact us and others that are on Medicare due to Medicaid being required for prescription coverage. I really am wanting to ask the redneck old guys that hang out at the table how they feel about all that.
In other news, it finally rained and is very cold the last few days. Didn't get above the high 50's all day and just as cold today but no clouds.
We had a wildfire to the south of us no where near us but it did give us a smoke cloud for two days. Until the wind whipped up and blew the rain storm in.
Yesterday and today's skies. Definitely winter now. Tonight it's barely a breeze and going to dip into the mid to low 40's. Brrrrrr.
We are scraping the bottom of the barrel but we have money coming in three days, luckily all those fund cut backs aren't going to affect Medicare or SS. Hopefully we get food money on the first. Will rant about it if we don't for sure.
