Odds & Ends

Weird and goofy.  That’s the only words that even come close to describing this introduction by the giggler who pretends to be Vice-President of the United States.

“Good afternoon.  I want to welcome these leaders for coming in to have this very important discussion about some of the most pressing issues of our time.  I am Kamala Harris.  My pronouns are “she” and “her.”  I am a woman sitting at the table wearing a blue suit.”

At least Harris knows she is a woman.  We have a Supreme Court justice who does not know what a woman is.  Perhaps Harris could clue her in.

This is not normal regardless of how hard the Left tries to pretend it is.  No one introduces themselves by a pronoun.  However, as Don Surber noted, this is what happens when all the books you’ve ever read were penned by Dr. Seuss.

And what is with the face diapers?  Oh, the “sainted” Dr. Fauci now says we should wear them all the time.

One of the most pressing issues of our time is that this incompetent fool is a heartbeat away from being president. If that doesn’t scare you, nothing will.  This is especially true in view of Biden’s ongoing battles with words and sentences.


Multiple media outlets (starting with the Washington Post) have reported that the DOJ is investigating President Donald Trump’s actions as part of its criminal probe of efforts to overturn the 2020 election results, according to four people familiar with the matter.”

Oh, the irony!  The most corrupt administration in history has decided to investigate the cleanest.  Is China now directing the actions of the DOJ?


Breitbart reported, “The cartels and coyotes are earning $13 billion a year by delivering economic migrants to U.S. workplaces via President Joe Biden’s welcoming border agencies, the New York Times reported Monday.

I wonder if the Big Guy is getting 10% of that.  When will the DOJ open an investigation into that possibility?


GO Banking Rates reported, “Social Security beneficiaries could see their 2023 cost-of-living adjustment hit double digits for the first time in more than four decades as inflation in the United States continues to spiral ever higher despite government efforts to rein it in.

“Based on Wednesday’s Consumer Price Index report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics — which showed inflation in June surging 9.1% from the previous year — the COLA for 2023 will be about 10.5%, according to the Senior Citizens League, a non-partisan seniors advocacy group.”

I doubt that 9.1% will be the top.  Higher inflation rates are almost certainly baked into the future of this country regardless of what the Fed decides on rates.


Historically, residential real estate has to be priced in a way that the average person can buy the average house and raise an average family in it, on the wages that are available within that particular area. It’s very local.

Residential real estate in America is 50-80 percent over valued right now.  This means that one of two things has to happen; average wages increase, or home values decrease.  With a recession here and a depression lurking around the corner, I do not think we will see substantial increases in wages.

Housing prices appear to have topped out.  Part of this is the fact the big financial houses can no longer get free money from the Fed since the Fed raised its rates.  With a second increase in those rates here, we can expect to see a downward slope in housing prices.  How many people who recently completed a house purchase are going to find themselves underwater?
