Shut Down!

Image
To what extreme would Trump go to get his WALL built?...well, you know the answer...he would threaten to SHUT DOWN the government. ..in his delirious mind, the thought of that would suffice in convincing the doubting Democrats...and, those in his (?) own party...to change their collective votes, to get HIS WALL ...with the money situation that the country is in (thank you Donny) it seems absurd that we would even be talking about more expenditures like this antiquated idea... So what was the response? ... nope, not now, not in a week, and not in the next 2 years, even if he stays in office ...he turned the self preserving idea, into a massive break in the everyday lives of the Federal Gov't...yup, unless there is a late breaking deal achieved...of course, not by him...but, by the House and the Senate...we will be involved in a SHUT DOWN ...totally due to him...Trump...make you ill?... Here is an item that has been floated out... he was unhappy that the Fed leader, Jerome P...

In Limbo

Fallout ...what else can you call it?...reaction has been fast and furious...as the WALL surrounding Trump continues to collapse...as the latest departure, Mad Dog , sent shockwaves throughout Congress...listen, kids, this resignation perks the ears of the Republicans...in both sides of it...the Reps AND the Senators... James Mattis, is the guy with the Mad Dog nickname ...and has been a stabilizing factor in the regime ...until now...he heard, like all of us, Trumps desire to pull the US troops out of Syria...he went in to meet with the bloke presently occupying the White House...to have him reverse course...delay his actions.. .giving him rationale and the reasons we have our military there ...alas, his discourse went out the door, just as he did...gave his resignation because he could no longer support what Trump is doing ... Trump tried to save face, citing that Mad Dog was retiring, in yet another innocuous Tweet ...Mattis would have none of that, and released his resig...

Out Of The Blue

Image
You can call me skeptical ...sure, it may sound like I am talking from both sides of me mouth...but...the latest ploy of Trump ...his announcement that he is pulling our 2,000 troops out of Syria. ..that we have 'defeated ISIS!' ...on the other hand, if true, bringing our guys and gals back home is always a blessing... however... This came OUT OF THE BLUE ...I just don't believe a word or thing he does or says ...is this a diversionary tactic to combat the Judicial things that are closing in about him?...lordy, don't you think it aides the other super power in the region, ah, Russia?...as Putin is tickled that the US is vacating that country and says so...might this be another string that the puppeteer has pulled? ...payback for getting elected?... The Republicans are irate! ...he did this without their approval...and they too, are lashing out at Trump... his rhetorical Tweets hit the web net, exhorting his awesome announcement and action.. .listen, kids, this ...

Be Merry

It is real easy to be a bit frightful , during these days...the non-stop barrage of Tweets...the plight of the stock market...listen, I could go on...but, step back and look at your REAL life...what YOU have to be thankful for...the people that surround YOUR happy home...it's what I'm doing, and I'm telling ya, to listen to the Christmas (Holiday) music and it will happen...at least, it helps... to be Merry!... The courts and the dominoes of the former Trumpites ...there are three in limbo right now...the one yesterday, Mike Flynn , got quite the earful from the judge overseeing his case... 'you let your country down' ...the dealings with the Russians, while in the Oval Office in the White House ...the word that surfaced, then was quietly retracted, 'treason' ...and then gave Flynn a 90 day stay, to figure out his defense...more...all the while 'singing like a canary' to the Mueller guys...er, so it is rumored... Cease and desist ...ano...

Speculations

Image
'Tis the season...for all the newest memos and SPECULATIONS ...what, where, and why?... the Stock Market really is affected by what Donny does?... Mike Flynn does or doesn't get a prison sentence?... Roger Stone actually admits to floating lies about making up statements that a Chinese businessman made illegal donations to Hillary during the last campaign?...and this out of 'Hardball's' Chris Mathews , that Trump will RESIGN in a deal with Mueller, to spare his kids from going to prison?...and, what the heck, a President would actually SHUT DOWN the government cuz he doesn't get money for a WALL?...and Donny's lawyer, Rudy , states that paying off girl liaisons with his client, is NOT illegal (as he says, it happens ALL the time) and had nothing to do with affecting votes?...you want MORE?...how about this...the Russians continue their work over social networks, trying hard to sabotage the dude who is investigating the Russian Collusion, Robert Mueller?...

Meet The Crew

Morning, kids... I'm trying to stay away from politics today. ..aw, fuggit about it...here is a composite of probable big time players in the next month...when the Demos take over the House ...get used to their faces, as they will be very prominent...the leaders are the team of Nadler, Schiff, and Cummings ...this just has to be gnawing on the Trump bone, right?. ..well, it will...as we can look into the crystal ball of the New Year of 2019...yup, fodder for the Horse...lots of it... So, here at the home, we had the gala Xmas (Holiday) Party , held at a local restaurant...in lieu of in the parlor of the building...I must say a major improvement...and kudos to whomever came up with the idear. ..just a few blocks away...and the entire establishment was set up for us...topping the evening off, was a band, The Roadkill'...oops, I mean 'The Roadkats'. ..one final observation, that single ladies seem to have loads of reenergized bodies, as they led the kats on the danc...

Houston, We Have A Problem

Just takes ONE judge to shake up the health world...well, the USA's version...a District Court Judge ...the ONE ... Reed O'Connor ...from the grand state of Texas ...has done so... found that the so called 'Obamacare' is not worthy...er, unconstitutional ...euphoria for Trump, I suppose...and throws a huge wrench into all of us that are dependent upon that part of health care...this, as so many are in the throws of signing up FOR it...geez...what does this all mean?...I dunno...listen, kids... this is not his first attempt at putting a hold on 'Obamacare'...did so in '16, too. ..yup, he has the conservative approach, as he was selected into office by Prez Bush...one of 'em...want more?...notice how he rules on minorities, too...homework for ya...yup, just ONE judge... In these days of telling lies...lots of them...which starts at the TOP of our political system...apparently, you can just shrug things off, and say I didn't really mean them...the...
