What Hath Elon Musk Wrought, Part 3

      Comments Off on What Hath Elon Musk Wrought, Part 3

Exposing a coup.

The Elon Musk/Twitter saga has been most interesting to watch.  After purchasing a 9.2% share of Twitter, he then proposed buying the company outright.

Twitter acted to prevent the takeover by using a poison pill approach.  This would involve issuing shares at half price if any investor would gain ownership of more than 15% of the outstanding shares.

Twitter’s actions (poison pill offer) publicized Twitter’s desire to censor free speech.

What is this the sole purpose of all of Elon Musk’s actions?

Ukraine Atrocities

      Comments Off on Ukraine Atrocities

I have not written a whole lot about what is going on in Ukraine because there is almost no way to get accurate information.  Russian State media runs propaganda for Putin.  In Western countries, Big Media is little more than the same kind of propaganda arm.  To quote one wag, the media here are just stenographers who repeat whatever the government elites tell them.  The days of independent journalists digging out stories are gone.

Odds & Ends

A Princess Cruise ship had an outbreak of COVID onboard.  The ship docked in San Francisco on Sunday.  All crew members and passengers were “fully” vaccinated.  All crew and passengers had also been tested for COVID prior to boarding.

People aboard the Ruby Princess caught the virus while on a 15-day Panama Canal cruise.  According to the company, those who contracted COVID did not spread it to others on the ship.  Right.  Sounds like the company is trying to avoid lawsuits.

And the White House continues to insist that the jabs are effective.  What are they effective at?  They do not stop infection.  They do not stop transmission.  And they do not prevent serious illness.  Oh, I know.  They are effective at lining the pockets of Big Pharma.

You Cannot Unsee The Corruption

      Comments Off on You Cannot Unsee The Corruption

There is an old saying.  Once you can see the strings on the marionettes, you can never unsee them.  The same is true with governments.  Once you see the lies and manipulation coming from governments, you can never unsee them.

On the other side of the coin, once you see the truth, you can never not see it.  Justin Trudeau was seen as a young, brash politician who happened to be elected Prime Minister of a functioning democracy.  How many people realized that he was a wannabee dictator after the likes of Fidel Castro and Xi Jinping?  After his recent actions against the Freedom Convoy, how many people now realize this?  This is truth that cannot be unseen.

Did Biden’s Handlers Bait Putin Into A War?

      Comments Off on Did Biden’s Handlers Bait Putin Into A War?

Let’s always keep in mind that the media (both Russian State media and western Big Media) will create narratives favorable to their owners.  Putin is the owner in Russia.  The Deep State is the owner here in America.

With that as a backdrop, Ukraine President Zelenskyy did an interview on CNN recently.  Zelenskyy has his own agenda and it is not quite clear to me just what it is.  Is he a puppet of the West who may not have realized just what a horrendous path he was being led down?  Is he a pawn who is and will be paid handsomely for his role in creating this war?

Projection

      Comments Off on Projection

When the Left talks about someone who is not in their tribe doing something that is nefarious and underhanded, one can almost always assume that the Left is already doing the same thing.  It’s called projection and it is something that Democrats are masters of.

On Tuesday Nancy Pelosi came out and identified what Putin’s strategy is in Ukraine.  According to her, the Russian president is trying to bait her into attacking his forces in Ukraine so that he can start World War III against her.

State of the Union

      Comments Off on State of the Union

Tonight the mindless inhabitant of the White House will give a State of the Union address.  Undoubtedly the Ukraine situation will be part of such an address. Also certain is the fact that COVID will be included.  I believe that the Democrats will attempt to declare victory over this scourge of mankind.

Ukraine

      Comments Off on Ukraine

Ukraine is possibly the biggest foreign policy blunder among the raft of blunders that Biden has engaged in.  And how many of his elite supporters will continue to support him when Russia takes over all of Ukraine as appears to be possible at this point?  Please be reminded that Biden invited Putin into Ukraine.
