USA Today: Trump says US getting ‘total access’ to Greenland

Fox Business: Trump: Greenland deal being negotiated now, US is not paying anything

… and once again, those who knew best were wrong again. You’d think they’d be asking why this keeps happening, but sometimes introspection within the narcissist class can be an unrealistic expectation.

More than any other global issue I’ve seen Trump tackle, his obsession with Greenland has shifted paradigms and broken brains. And I’m talking about big brains: diplomats, foreign policy analysts, economic specialists.
— Politico, 1/22/26

As written here many times before, our government is not run by our nation’s best and brightest. Our nation is mostly being run (on the town, city, state and federal level) by people who’ve never created or run anything successfully, if at all. Few, prior to their first election, have been a supervisor, department head, or business owner. Most do not know what the United States truly is; not a government entity but really a corporation which has two applicable definitions:

“a body formed and authorized by law to act as a single person although constituted by one or more persons and legally endowed with various rights and duties including the capacity of succession”

and

“an association of employers and employees in a basic industry or of members of a profession organized as an organ of political representation in a corporative state”.

For decades, the United States government has been run by those who looked at a political career as almost an entitlement. Once in, on almost every level, federal employees through political leadership deem their existence an imperative and to Americans as a blessing. But as we all know, when people believe their positions are safe, initiative can suffer and that lack of initiative can have profound effects on the millions of people they claim to serve.

Then on that fateful June 16, 2015 day, businessman Donald Trump, after many years of saying the American people have been ripped off by domestic and foreign policymakers, announced his presidency and the apparatus of comfort was put on notice. It was almost if the words of Gordon Gekko from 1987’s Wall Street “Greed is good” speech were prophetic.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, we’re not here to indulge in fantasy, but in political and economic reality. America has become a second-rate power. Its trade deficit and its fiscal deficit are at nightmare proportions. Now, in the days of the free market, when our country was a top industrial power, there was accountability to the stockholder. The Carnegies, the Mellons, the men that built this great industrial empire, made sure of it because it was their money at stake. Today, management has no stake in the company!

You own the company. That’s right — you, the stockholder. And you are all being royally screwed over by these, these bureaucrats, with their steak lunches, their hunting and fishing trips, their corporate jets and golden parachutes. Now, I have spent the last two months analyzing what all these guys do, and I still can’t figure it out.

The new law of evolution in corporate America seems to be survival of the unfittest. Well, in my book you either do it right or you get eliminated.

I am not a destroyer of companies. I am a liberator of them!
— Gordon Gekko: Address to Teldar Paper Stockholders

For many years, we the stockholders of the great American nation have been intentionally left in the dark as to the self-serving activities of bureaucrats and those in the media who suck up for access. Their policies, more often than not, saw people as collateral damage in an effort to achieve what they consider a greater good. As long as they insulated themselves from political and physical ramification, no misguided action was off the table. For example, do you really think politicians would be okay with millions of problematic illegal aliens coming into the country if they knew they’d be in direct contact with them in every daily facet of life and would not have personal protections? As long as those coming would eventually become a friendly voting block, the robberies, rapes, murders, child molestation, deadly drug dealing driving injuries and fatalities, fraud and more would be tolerable because it probably won’t personally affect them.

Donald Trump, an established and comfortable businessman, ran and at least twice won the presidency and clearly sees the nation as a corporation that actually values and aims to liberate its customers. What a concept, right?

If that means rooting out the dead weight entitled slackers in the federal government, or especially those unelected who believe they are really the ones running things, so be it. Yes, there was and will continue to be kicking and screaming tantrums but one thing Gekko said in his “Greed” speech was even more brilliant.

He said it “clarifies”.

The Trump presidencies have shown us all just how corrupt government has been, how vindictive it can be, how manipulative and dishonest the media has and continues to be, how dishonest prosecutors and judges are, how dangerous tax-cheat nonprofits are, and how willing almost all are to play deadly games with the lives of millions of people.

And on it’s present trajectory, if our corporation were to go belly up, the politician and bureaucrat golden parachutes are buried somewhere in millions of pages of legalese in legislation specifically crafted for their protection and survival.

SO, back to Greenland.

President Trump has sought to ensure the safety and security of the United States in our own hemisphere. According to the president during his Davos speech, news was made by reminding those always claiming to be smarter than he, that we actually gave Greenland back…?

No nation, or group of nations, is in any position to be able to secure Greenland other than the United States.

We saw this in World War II, when Denmark fell to Germany after just six hours of fighting and was totally unable to defend either itself or Greenland. So, the United States was then compelled – we did it, we felt an obligation to do it – to send our own forces to hold the Greenland territory. And hold it we did, at great cost and expense. They didn’t have a chance of getting on it, and they tried. Denmark knows that.

We literally set up bases on Greenland for Denmark. We fought for Denmark. We weren’t fighting for anyone else. We were fighting to save it for Denmark. Big, beautiful piece of ice. It’s hard to call it land. It’s a big piece of ice. But we saved Greenland and successfully prevented our enemies from gaining a foothold in our hemisphere. So, we did it for ourselves also.

After the war, we gave Greenland back to Denmark. How stupid were we to do that? But we did it, but we gave it back.
— Special Address by Donald J Trump, President of the United States of America

Like any successful CEO of a corporation, Donald Trump made a public proposal to improve the business and value to stockholders. While personally intervening and ending things like wars, he’s done again what those deemed more wise mocked as the obviously impossible.

Donald Trump succeeded because that’s what competent executives do.

Just ask Greenland.

It’s just about how good they are about concealing it.

The TRUST Myth

We’re told we can trust our leaders. Their words affect our daily lives and when repeated by our media, have profound effects on everything from grocery and gas prices to world peace.

However, there’s a very small number of people in the United States who can lie with near total impugnity. None of us can lie about our boss or to our customers without being promply fired. But if you’re one of the 635 on Capitol Hill (clearly not the best and brightest 635 in America either….), and as long as you’re on the clock, you can say anything you want about anything or anybody.

Must be nice….

The Senators and Representatives shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
— United States Constitution (Article I, Section 6, Clause 1)

And they’d NEVER abuse that privilege, right?

“If you like your doctor, you can keep you doctor. If you like your plan, you can keep your plan.”
— President Barack Obama, PolitiFact ‘Lie of the Year’

Obama knew Republicans would be hard pressed and/or gutless trying to prove “high crimes and misdemeanors” here as presidents were not included in the Clause, so he just repeated this whopper over three dozen times.

We had politicians on the floor of the Senate accusing a presidential candidate of not filing income taxes (knowing he did), and after the election one was called on the mistruth to which he responded, “Well, he didn’t win, did he?”

Americans have to live with the daily ramifications of falsehoods spoken and written by House and Senate politicians, echoed by both legacy and social media. Imagine how much better life could be if the elected were required to be honest….

The Only MEN ARE SLOBS Myth

There are probably hundreds of instances where women declare men slobs, pigs, etc. Husbands and boyfriends are the butt of such declarations on women’s talk shows, op-ed and social media posts, and are never called on it.

That’s because women know and consciously deflect from an ugly truth: they can be easily outed as mockable projection hypocrites if their behavioral tendencies were exposed and publicly acknowledged.

Go to any department store and look at the women’s clothing and shoe aisles. One will see blouses and dresses strewn on the floor under the hung garments. Women just throw garments anywhere but back on the racks where they found them. Shoes, instead on being put back in place after being tried on, are just left on the floor to be walked around or tripped over.

Laura has also decribed the horrors of using a women’s public restroom.

Shit, piss and menstraul fluid literally splattered on and around toilet seats, soiled femine hygene products left on the floors or stopping up toilets… yeah, it’s fuckng gross and the same women who punchline men as slobs will NEVER tell you how disgusting they are behind closed stalls.

The Myth About ACADEMICS

There is this perception that teachers and professors have the last word during any discussion. If one has any doubt, their academic credentials are thrown back in your face in an attempt to shut down any disagreement one may have with their conclusions. But why must we take their conclusion as the final word?

Because we’ve been trained to accept their word.

Teachers have the ultimate power, by issuing grades from first grade through college, to certify or destroy an academic record that has profound implications for an employment career. Since their grades are as simple as right or wrong, the implication is they know more than the student which most of the time is correct.

However in recent years, teachers (who are never given the opportunity to be vetted by parents) enter the classroom, not with the mission to educate children with the tools needed to function in society but with personal agendas that may be at odds with the values with parents. But because they are teachers with the power to destroy the academic record of any child, those agendas have been legitimized.

Parents are given no proof of the proficiency of any teacher but are supposed to accept they are good teachers simply because they’re employed by a school. We have no prior assurance teachers are actual decent people. But again because they are teachers, parents are not allowed to question their competence and sanity even when they repeatedly behave in deviant manners.

The LAWYER Myth

Given the lofty compensation for their emergency services (they’re mostly only hired when bad things happen), one would think lawyers are the ultimate professionals. Cinematic and television portrayals collectively sure give that impression.

And where’s the proof?

When looking for a lawyer, you’re presented with a headshot (usually taken when he or she was much younger). You’re to be impressed by the law school attended, their degrees, their years since passing the bar exam, and years in a legal area of expertice. But there’s one piece of very important information you won’t see in a lawyer’s bio.

When a professional sports team is looking for a new coach, the first metric their fans look at are the wins and losses. That’s the easiest way to gauge if that coach candidate is worth consideration. However with lawyers, you will NEVER see the wins and losses of any law firm or individual attorney on any website.

So how do you know if the hundreds of dollars per hour, or contingency, is going to a good lawyer or a bad one?

You won’t.

Ask an attorney for the number of their wins and losses and see what happens. Note the grammar in their response for a quick clue.

The DOCTOR Myth

Again because of their level and years of education, we’re told it’s extremely problematic to ever question the conclusion of a medical professional. But doctors and lawyers share one commonality in said professions.

They don’t perform law or medicine. They “practice”.

That long-standing word description alone should be pause for concern as the common definition is it’s a “method of learning by repetition”. Do you really want someone learning when your finances, freedom, health or life is on the line? Like lawyers, you’re to assume high-priced doctors are good at what they do despite your not given any documentation to back it up.

How many patients have they cured? How many have sued them for a misdiagnosis or negligence? How many patients have they lost?

Despite the high compensation demanded for their services, neither offer a guarantee of success.

If you don’t ask, they won’t tell you. If they do respond, they’ll probably hide behind HIPPA so they still won’t tell you.

The HEALTHY FOOD Myth

Just read the ingredients on any food product you purchase at your market of choice and you’ll be left dumbfounded because, chances are, you can’t even pronounce some of the chemicals added to what we consume on a daily basis.

It might surprise you to learn that many food additives found in bread, baked goods, and candy manufactured in the United States are banned or restricted in Europe and other parts of the world because of potential health risks. U.S. consumers generally assume that items on grocery store shelves have been vetted for safety, but a loophole in the approval process of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) means that 99 percent of new food chemicals aren’t evaluated before they are added to products.
— Everyday Heath

While the excuse may be these chemicals are added for visual and palate aesthetics or preservation, many of these additives have quite negative short and longterm health ramifications. High fructose corn syrup, maltodextrin, monosodium glutamate are some of the most widely used culprits. Funny how when you see drug commercials that reveal those pesky, possible negative side effects (that inconveniently include death), we’re never given similar warnings when it comes to the ingredients added to our food.

Are they trying to kill us?

The HOUSING SHORTAGE Myth

For anyone listening to news reports about the affordability and/or availability of homes, disregard all the metrics given as there’s one very important factor the media leaves out.

Realtors.

They set local and regional market prices based on their personal commission demands. They are the ones assuring hallucinating sellers how valuable their neglected or damaged homes are. There are more protections for buying a used car than a home purchase worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Why are the homes neglected or damaged? Because some people bought over-their-head and after mortgage, bills, and daily expenses, had little money left, let alone for routine maintenance. When the inevitable happens and repairs are required, handyman cheap appears to be the remedy of choice and shoddy workmanship will be discovered belatedly by subsequent owners.

If you have the misfortune of searching for a home, there’s one constant: the condition of the homes you’ll see range from tolerable to you-must-be-high. From experience it’s safe to say 98% of the homes you’ll tour are in some way damaged. To a seller and realtor, the buyer is a mark. They want your money and conscience is in very short supply.

Unless you have the wealth to build from ground up you’ll be choosing from poorly maintained, insect and/or rodent infested, mold and/or water damaged homes with inflated prices that will help an entitled seller hit the lottery and the greedy realtor receive that generous commission. If that house was initially listed at an realistic price with honest verbal and pictorial descriptions (big IF), it’ll most likely be scooped up quickly by another realtor/broker who’ll put the minimum into that house and flip it at a hefty markup. It’s the optional ethics of realtors that make home prices unaffordable for most buyers, not to mention the ripple effect of jacking up the property taxes of all those around that home.

Also be wary of the typical descriptions of houses found online: “meticulously maintained”, “nestled in”, “cozy”, “spacious” and other glowing adjectives that will be fodder for instant disappointment when you visit the property. Getting honest disclosures from realtors (required by law in some states) about the house is like pulling teeth. You’ll only be told what you know to ask. Then it’s a question of how much potential money you’re willing to tolerate or invest in that house after buying that expensive shack.

Despite all you’re told, there is no housing shortage.

There IS a shortage of houses that are worth the asking price.

The QUALITY Myth

Speaking of overpriced, there was a time in America if you were to spend a little more money on an item , you were assured of receiving something of higher quality that would last for many, many years.

Those were the days.

Cars actually had steel frames and bodies that could withstand a simple bump and could inflict even more damage to whatever it came in contact with. The left saw that as unfair, so all cars were subsequently constructed with lighter materials so damage would be more equitable.

Just look at some of the 60’s era kitchen appliances you can still find in homes currently for sale.

Today, the more you spend on anything, you’ll purchase the inferior in order to get you to repeat that sad cycle. Any product or service you don’t buy often will be used against you. The quality will be questionable at best to assure multiple repeat visits that will never fix the problem. Whether we’re talking about an appliance, store, auto mechanic, finding someone who’s first mission isn’t to rip you off is like seeking the Holy Grail.

As this appears to be the current business model, not sure when our money will be respected again.

The MEDIA Myth

We’re told to trust the media, and who says that the most?

The media.

Without those who consume their product, their overinflated salaries don’t happen. News anchors must come off as authorities on any given topic and when the inevitable happens and they get something very wrong, apologies and retractions are as brief and short as possible. To make matters worse, whether we’re talking about the news or entertainment industries, these people truly believe they are smarter that the American people whose ignorance on any given topic should be solely blamed on… the media.

Our job is to control what people think.
— Mika Brzezinski, 2/22/17

Note the use of terms used when describing the American people: “average”, “everyday”, “ordinary” people. Think of the narcissistic arrogance and sense of privilege it takes to constantly look at others in that fashion. It gives too many the license to misinform and/or manipulate because they believe they know what’s best for the public, and for those they prefer and deem protectable.

Many of today’s journalists also believe if it’s something they’ve never heard of, it never happened. What could go wrong with that thinking?

Also be wary whenever a journalist cites an “expert” to justify a conclusion. More times than not like “anonymous sources”, those experts are not named and if so, the number is as few as possible. That “source” can also be an academic (see: above), or based on past incidents, can be made up altogether.

Arrogance crosses into the entertainment industry where television and movie celebrities believe they’re deep thinkers and know it all simply because of where they work, not to mention those who work for them who don’t have the guts to risk their employment and tell these entertainers when they’re wrong. As a result, embarrassingly misinformed musings are distributed to the masses.

It has been brought to my attention that, in my support of Palestine, I have inadvertently re-posted articles, and/or statements, that have contained misinformation and falsehoods. I am aware how sharing inaccurate content can cause confusion and distress; for this I am deeply sorry. I will certainly endeavour to be more diligent in future to verify anything I share online.
— Guy Pearce, actor

“Inadvertently”….

For the most part, disregard their opinions unless you put them in the parody column.

When it comes to the world of broadcast sports, on-air pundits could be the worse as too many believe they’re also comedians instead of analysts. Their jokes and segments aren’t funny, and we’re to embrace their condescending belief that eye candy is necessary to keep men interested.

Stop.

There are other examples of myths that will inevitably come to mind as life continues.

I will admit Gen Z has political clout. Their votes (however uninformed and misguided), in part, gave us the Biden Administration and only a sheer ignoramus believes it’s been good for the country.

It’s clear that Generation Z has earned a seat at the table. We’ve led the social movements that have shaped our current politic climate and helped elect President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris into office. Our growing political power is driven by our unique perspective on the future as we ask ourselves: What does the future hold?
— The Hill, Eve Levenson, Opinion Contributor, 11/26/22

While you ponder that question, I will punctuate this response with videos that may answer what a Gen Z-led future may hold for America.

The fact that Millennials and Gen Z aren’t, for the most part, held in any regard is well known and justified. Let’s not forget, it was these geniuses who decided to drill headphone jacks in iPhones….

Most of the outlets are reporting on world events from Washington. The average reporter we talk to is 27 years old, and their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns. That’s a sea change. They literally know nothing.
— Ben Rhodes, former Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting under President Obama

Many of these know-nothings deliver news while on their personal time, advocate for causes and groups that are antithetical to a civilized nation.

But back to Eve Levenson’s “piece”….

This election cycle, young voters once again voted decisively Democratic and turned out in numbers that exceeded historical trends.

In other words, EVERYTHING going wrong in America today can be squarely blamed on Gen Z. They proudly admit they voted for it and we, as a nation, are paying the price while they escape to the refuge of their parents home when it’s their turn to feel the pain they willfully caused.

This made our demographic the deciding factor, delivering the margin for Democrats in close races for the last three major elections. As John Della Volpe, Director of Polling at the Harvard Institute of Politics and 2020 Biden campaign adviser wrote, “Winning one election might be an accident. Two, an anomaly. Three in a row proves that earning the support of the Gen Z-millennial alliance is essential to winning elections in our current era.”

But as important as engaging the Gen Z-millennial alliance is to winning political power, it’s just as crucial that young Americans are represented in the federal government.

There was a time when Americans expected honorable, experienced people in the federal government. Levenson should be careful if age, not responsibility, is the only prerequisite.

Sam Brinton, one of the first “openly genderfluid individuals in federal government leadership,” was charged with felony theft last month after allegedly stealing a woman’s luggage at MSP Airport. The MIT grad went viral earlier this year when he announced his new role as the deputy assistant secretary of the Office of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition in the U.S. Department of Energy.
— Alpha News, 11/28/22

Seriously, how many more thieves do we need in the federal government; a whole generation?

The boomer generation, they often mock, (for example) took us from the vinyl long-playing record to the eight-track to cassette player to compact disk to mp3 to streaming. Two generation prior, we went from antenna to cable television, from the Betamax to the VHS player to the DVD to Blu-Ray. There are many examples of significant contributions made by those who came before Gen Z.

Aside from appearing in what could be file footage used in an Idiocracy sequel, what have these 20-somethings created of value? Aside from manipulating existing technology to suit their phone addiction, they have yet to produce anything substantive and are seemingly more adept at taking from others, devoid of conscience.

See: Sam Bankman-Fried.

Levenson continues.

Many of us are strategists and policy experts, too — and our generation must be represented in all rooms where decisions that affect us are being made. Gen Z and millennials make over 40 percent of the electorate yet we are only 7 percent of the federal workforce.

Could it be many in Gen Z couldn’t fill out an application for a federal job, may be concerned they couldn’t pass a drug test, or find life living at home off their parents preferable to being a responsible, self-sufficient adult?

It IS a probability.

When I met then-presidential hopeful Kamala Harris in October 2019, I asked her what her message to young people was and without hesitation she said not to wait or ask for permission to lead.

Even Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are smarter then Gen Z, and that’s saying a lot. They know these young people are easily duped so we can expect more empty promises from politicians aimed at people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who, not until she was overpaid to be a United States Congresswoman, was “shook” that plants actually came from… dirt, like “magic”!.

Buying the votes of the clueless is a no-brainer.

Two years later, there are more than 100 supporting organizations representing over 3 million young people. The youth movement is unified across dozens of issue areas and ideologies in our call to create an “Office of Young Americans,”  empower youth in existing positions and create a “Young Americans Advisory Council.”

The creation of offices that really don’t have to do anything but sound good to those who’d never attempt to read what that office will never have to accomplish. Just a few TikTok influencer videos from inside a federal office building is all it would take to satiate skinny brains.

When our generation leads, driven by our unique perspective of our future, we are relentless in the pursuit of justice and our very democracy — we will march, organize and turnout to protect it. We have consistently shown up to protect the future of American democracy. We have shown up for the Biden-Harris administration. We have shown up for their agenda. Now, is the time for the administration to show up for us.

Good luck with that.

Gen Z seems more adept at organized woke hissy fits like disrupting traffic, burning, looting, injuring and worse, all before going back home to sleep all day. They are adamant about voting ploys like abortion so they can continue their unprotected sexual activities unfettered.

Respect is something that was earned. Gen Z types like this Eve Levenson believe they should be respected; not for what they bring to the table, but simply because they exist.

At some point, the general public will dismiss the partisan media and see the damage caused they have to endure; costs those who move back home won’t help out with. And thanks to attention-starved voters like Gen Z, Americans will know precisely who to blame.

They’ll just do what they do best: consume and contribute the minimum.

Let’s hope it gets ugly so these people won’t be taken seriously ever again.

It was billed as a coming “Red Wave”. It was supposed to be an informal referendum on Joe Biden’s disastrous inflation, intentional border collapse, unforgivable crime wave, unscientific pandemic fiasco, and fascist police state policies. Aside from Florida which was a masterclass on how to run an election and have results in a more than timely manner, the “Red Wave” never really materialized. The expected ballot shenanigans occurred, outcomes are delayed and as usual, votes will be “counted” until the Democrat wins.

But how was it that the topics that have affected so many millions of Americans were seemingly ignored and those who created the hardship and mayhem got reelected? It was because those whose lives were relatively unaffected had no reason to issue a protest vote.

Those who voted for more of the same are the entitled, government class.

While Americans were told to close businesses and lay off millions of employees, there is one group of people who have yet to miss one paycheck since the beginning of the pandemic: politicians, federal and state employees. It was clear from the start, they were indifferent to the plight of those who had to suffer shutdowns.

Voting maps routinely show small blue urban areas with large population centers mostly voting Democrat and large, rural landmass areas with smaller populations voting Republican. So, who was it that was okay with the direction of the country while the majority saw us going down the “wrong track”?

Federal and State Employees

Many of the nation’s wealthiest counties surround Washington, D.C. and the vast majority of federal employees donate and vote Democrat. In fact, some were willing to participate in a planned coup if Donald Trump was reelected in 2020, so unlike those who live outside the Beltway, the blue urban areas in gentrified cities saw no reason to abandon their party because they were fine. Many, if not most, federal employees “earn” as much as three times the median American’s income so higher food and gas prices were not an insurmountable hardship worthy of change.

Too many federal employees are liberal transplants from other states, move into red areas because of a friendlier standard of living, and dilute the votes of the Republican locals by voting Democrat.

Many federal employees earn enough to send their kids to private schools, so the teacher union-inflicted pain on parents and their children really didn’t affect them either. And unlike the majority of Americans who lost jobs, too many federal employees were encouraged to work from home and thousands continue to do so even though the pandemic is officially ended. They saw no reason to change course because again, they were fine and their votes nullified those who’ve been directly hurt by Biden’s policies and those who ratified them.

State employees, for the most part, were unscathed by pandemic and inflationary Democrat edicts. Aside from school bus drivers, almost all were compensated while most Americans had no paycheck coming in. As most support Democrats, they had no real complaints worthy of rebelling against their party.

Dependent Class

Like government employees, the entitlement class went relatively unscathed during the shutdowns and received their various subsidies and payments since losing a job (thus income) was never a consideration.

They voted Democrat by the millions because they know who butters their bread.

Government Education Class

Thanks to the traditionally liberal indoctrination, colleges are reliably Democrat. Like federal employee transplants, college students inundate local populations and dilute, if not nullify, the values of those whose area they temporarily inhabit.

Of course we saw the usual incompetence and/or planned interference by state election officials who have one job to do every two years and still managed to fuck it up. Until we join civilized nations and do away with voting machines (of which we were told are not connected to the Internet, but they are) and go back to the time where paper ballots were counted and the results were known very early the next morning, 2022 midterm elections will continue, especially when almost all of these issues seem to benefit Democrats.

Until we ALL feel the pain of destructive Democrat policies, one side with large numbers of voters will continue to support those who maintain their very comfortable lifestyle. They will mute the hell most Americans are experiencing as they will be immune, little things like inflation and crime can be avoided in safer red areas.

No-Class Youth

Don’t get me started (again) on Gen Z.

And this wouldn’t be an election aftermath if not for the…

Customary Democrat Cheating Class

We’re used to the pattern: when a Democrat wins his or her race, it’s called immediately. When a Republican is winning, all of the ballots need to be counted days or weeks after the polls closed until enough votes are found for a Democrat victory.

Sometimes the “math” reveals how efficiently Democrats count when so motivated.

We’ve got something for you if you’re looking for irregularities in your local elections. Columbia, New Hampshire. It’s way up north. A tiny little town that, according to the 2020 US Census, had 695 residents. But according to the Secretary of State, Maggie Hassan received 1,106 votes from the same town.

Don Bolduc had 193 votes.
— Granite Grok, 11/12/22

Funny how this kind of thing NEVER meets the media’s “zero evidence of vote fraud” demand we accept because they say so.

First, a few notable quotes from the “Soul of the Nation” speech, which was a sorry exercise in projection for Trump-hating dimwits who watch CNN, MSNBC and subscribe to the New York Times and Washington Post.

They [MAGA Republicans] refuse to accept the results of a free election. And they’re working right now, as I speak, in state after state to give power to decide elections in America to partisans and cronies, empowering election deniers to undermine democracy itself.
— Joe Biden, 9/1/22

It all depends if previous elections have truly been “free” from undo interference.

79% say ‘truthful’ coverage of Hunter Biden’s laptop would have changed 2020 election

Yep, it was the most secure election in history. Except for that Russian interference in both 2016 and 2020. Unfortunately, one accusation turned out to be a Hillary Clinton/DNC dirty trick and the other turned out be a cover story to mask an embarrassment to the Democrat candidate so patterns need be taken into account.

Back to Biden’s rantings, when it comes to repeatedly refusing to accept the results of a free and fair election, Donald Trump and his supporters need to get to the back of the line.

9/26/19: Hillary Clinton: Trump is an ‘illegitimate president’

In 2000, Al Gore (D) and his fellows contested the results all the way to the Supreme Court before conceding. And, of course, there’s 2016. How many leftists have there been who still don’t accept the defeat of Hillary Clinton? Good grief! After all this time, Hillary herself still hasn’t accepted the outcome. In fact, Hillary Clinton is the only person I’ve heard to openly advocate for a losing presidential candidate to not accept the election results. Hillary’s exact words were, “Joe Biden should not concede [the election] under any circumstances … he will win if we don’t give an inch…”

But wait; there’s more!

5/31/19: Why Stacey Abrams Is Still Saying She Won
5/9/22: Biden’s New Press Secretary Is A ‘Stolen Election’ Conspiracy Theorist Who Called Trump An ‘Illegitimate President’

In fact, Democrats routinely attempt to decertify Republican president-elects which ironically brings us back to Biden’s words in Philadelphia where he said, “Democracy cannot survive when one side believes there are only two outcomes to an election: either they win or they were cheated.”

Projection.

1/6/17 House Democrats fail to muster support to challenge Trump’s Electoral College win

It was a rather disorganized and pitiful display.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee said in a phone interview that she as many as 10 colleagues plan to challenge the validity of electoral votes in multiple states, where she argued voter suppression tactics may have tainted the outcome. The maneuver to impede Trump’s election also faces another potentially crippling problem: challenges to electoral votes require the support of at least one member of both House and the Senate. So far, Jackson Lee said, no senators have stepped forward to join the effort.
— Politico, 1/6/17

This was also standard operation procedure for the Democrats.

Democrats Objected to Electoral Vote Certification in 2000, 2004, 2016

There are dozens of instances and venues where Democrats have refused to accept their respective election defeats. Nothing from Joe Biden or Karine Jean-Pierre on that and there are Democrats who are doing all possible to work with compliant Democrat state legislatures to change voting rules, in some cases, months before an election.

5/9/22: Eric Holder on gerrymandering: “Republicans have to cheat in order to win” elections

Of course when Democrats do it, it’s called “redistricting”. Meanwhile, when it comes to the outrageous and unfounded criticism of the accuracy of voting machines…

Marc Elias, a prominent Democratic election attorney, argued in a court filing this week that faulty voting machines may have misread thousands of votes in a House election in upstate New York, a claim similar to the debunked allegation some Republicans pushed regarding the 2020 presidential election.
— Daily Caller, 2/5/21

If it helps Democrats defeat Republicans, they will create new illusions on the “free and fair” election that ultimately benefits them.

Ranked-choice voting
Voters rank candidates in order of preference. If a candidate receives more than 50% of first-place votes after the first tabulation, then they win, but if there is no majority winner, then the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated.  In the next tabulation, voters who chose the eliminated candidate as their top pick will have their votes go to their second-place pick. This process is repeated until one candidate receives a majority of the votes.
— Fox News, 9/1/22

Watch how quickly the left will call ranked-choice voting unconstitutional once their candidates lose in this system.

Biden rambled on.

They promote authoritarian leaders, and they fan the flames of political violence that are a threat to our personal rights, to the pursuit of justice, to the rule of law, to the very soul of this country. They look at the mob that stormed the United States Capitol on January 6th — brutally attacking law enforcement — not as insurrectionists who placed a dagger to the throat of our democracy, but they look at them as patriots.

Democrats conveniently dismiss any attempt to compare the January 6 foolishness to the liberal Democrat 2020 “Summer of Love” Black Lives Matter/Antifa rioting that occurred in hundreds of American cities and cost many lost enforcement personnel and citizens their lives, not to mention billions in private and public property damage.

But the takeover of a “People’s House” didn’t occur for the first time ever in Washington, D.C. after the 2020 election. Leftists have shot up and bombed the Capitol before, but let’s not get all distracted by the past. Actually, the takeover of a legislature building is a rather common occurrence when Dems don’t get their way, want something, and most of the time without a permit.

Liberal Democrats are encouraged and allowed to occupy government spaces but when the right protests, Democrats call the cops to have the gathering declared an “unlawful assembly”.

And they see their MAGA failure to stop a peaceful transfer of power after the 2020 election as preparation for the 2022 and 2024 elections.

Democrats denied Republicans the opportunity to celebrate Inauguration Day 2017 and Biden will never mention the attempted assassination of Republicans at a baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia by a Bernie Sanders supporter. Political violence has been extremely rare on the right and routine from the left.

They tried everything last time to nullify the votes of 81 million people. This time, they’re determined to succeed in thwarting the will of the people. I will not stand by and watch — I will not — the will of the American people be overturned by wild conspiracy theories and baseless, evidence-free claims of fraud. 
— Joe Biden, 9/1/22

Before we blindly agree that the 2020 election was on the up-and-up just because they told us so, don’t forget the growing number of instances where we were told to accept something the left and their media insisted was truth that had to be acted on just to find out it was either very wrong or an intentional lie. Remember those in the Trump administration and/or supporters who’ve been arrested (and in some cases financially ruined defending themselves against federal law enforcement) while Democrats who have genuinely broken the law get the customary wrist slap if any punishment at all.

Seeing how the United States is a constitutional republic, the only threat to “democracy” is the fact that most of the word Democrat is in it. Biden’s vindictive policies have been so destructive to Americans, he’s doing all he can to keep what semblance of a base he has left because when Republicans take the majority in 2022 and Trump gets back in the White House in 2025, there will be a reckoning.

It will be very ugly and well-deserved.

Couple that with placing academics and nonprofit activists who knew absolutely nothing about how an economy works in cabinet and policy positions, the results would be predictable enough to be a parody basis for a brutal Monty Python feature film.

That’s the headline of a report to be released Wednesday by the Committee to Unleash Prosperity, compiled by Stephen Moore and Jon Decker. The pair studied the résumés of 68 top executive-branch officials whose work shapes the economy—from President Biden and Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen to White House special assistants on economic policy.

“Average business experience of Biden appointees is only 2.4 years,” the authors found. Any fresh-faced 25-year-old on Wall Street has clocked more private business hours than most of Washington’s top officials. Sixty-two percent have “virtually no business experience.” By contrast, the average Donald Trump cabinet official had 13 years of experience in the private economy, the authors say.

Some familiarity with business is especially important given that President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have spent their lives in law or politics. But the authors found that Biden economic officialdom is dominated by careers in law (20), politics and government (21), and academia or policy-making (12). There are prominent exceptions. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo was a successful venture capitalist before entering government, and Interior Secretary Deb Haaland ran operations at a New Mexico tribal casino.

Yet it’s fair to wonder if the Biden policies and their results reflect a lack of even a basic understanding of how business works.

Innocence of profits, payrolls and competition seems to count as a virtue among today’s progressives. But that isn’t a virtue when modern government has so much power to regulate and punish private business. Presidents are free to appoint whoever they wish, but the results of business ignorance in this Administration are speaking for themselves.
— Wall Street Journal, 7/12/22

Going forward, don’t expect the politically privileged and arrogant to reverse course on a policies inspired by partisan hate with no regard to how those policies would affect millions of Americans. Those within the administration and Democrat party are pretty much insulated from the financial hardships their “principles” have unleashed on the nation. It won’t be an emergency until it negatively affects them and most of these wonks and academics will be able to land softly back into colleges and DC think tanks should they become midterm casualties, so they still aren’t facing real world ramifications.

The Capitol Hill beltway culture is a parasitical culture that will continue to indifferent to the pain they cause until the infrastructure is dismantled and rebuilt based on logic and need instead of what’s best for an entrenched political party.

More than ever, Americans this Fourth of July think the Founding Fathers would be disappointed in the nation they established 246 years ago. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that only 27% of American Adults believe the Founding Fathers would consider the United States a success, down from 34% a year ago. Fifty-three percent (53%) now say the Founding Fathers – George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin, among others – would view America as a failure.
— Rasmussen Reports, 7/4/22

Even with erratic and selective pandemic shutdowns, everything that’s a hassle to get and/or do now was available and doable then. Outside of progressive-plagued cities, there was law and order. Unemployment was at historic lows for all, gasoline was cheap, the border was as secure as it’s ever been, we couldn’t even comprehend a baby formula shortage, and the world was at relative peace.

When the Fourth of July of 2020 rolled around, most Americans were proud of where we were and where we were headed.

After a year and a half of Biden, America is unrecognizable and there’s so much more time for him to make life so much worse… and he will.

So, what are their very limited options seeing how much they love power and the lengths they would go to keep it?

Embrace the suck and seize power while they can.

While those in the legacy and social medias would blow this off as “conspiracy theory”, remember almost everything they demand we ignore as falsehood has turned out to be true. We must also remember to not only watch what Democrats expect Americans to endure; look at what they conversely do to protect themselves.

The select board approved a request for a 2,500-gallon commercial propane tank for 79 Turkeyland Cove Road in Katama — owned by former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. “We’ve never had a private propane tank come to us,” said select board member Arthur Smadbeck, with select board member Michael Donaroma noting a private-residence propane tank is typically a fraction of the quantity being requested.

We’ve already witnessed the breakdown of civility in major metropolitan centers and imagine when those smash-and-grabbers get hungry. We’ve also heard how freaked current officeholders can be when outside forces and/or misguided policies threaten their seats. 2022 is a referendum on fiscally reckless policies that have directly harmed the American people from an arrogant, tone deaf administration and party. Democrats currently in office know it, and for the most part, are fairly calm as if they know something we all don’t.

In his second ever solo White House press conference on Wednesday, US President Joe Biden was asked if November’s congressional elections would be legitimate if he could not pass his voting plans.

“It all depends on whether or not we’re able to make the case to the American people that some of this is being set up to try to alter the outcome of the election,” he said, referring to stricter voting rules enacted by Republican state houses. “I’m not saying it’s going to be legit,” Mr Biden said when asked about the possibility of fraud in the forthcoming elections that will decide the balance of power in Washington. “The increase in the prospect of being illegitimate is in direct proportion to us not being able to get these reforms passed,” the Democratic president continued.
— BBC, 1/20/22

Biden would never have made such an assertion unless he and his Democrats had doubts they would remain in power after November 8th so efforts are being made to create victims of those who’ll be counting the votes.

Maybe they won’t have to….

Despite the fact the term “martial law” doesn’t appear in the United States Constitution, it has been implemented over 60 times in the history of our nation, and for reasons more dire than to provide political cover for bad policy. But the Biden administration clearly has no respect for the American people so creating the atmosphere that could result in a suspension of an election is quite possible; a suspension that will be justified and promoted by a sycophantic, partisan legacy media.

If things start getting really ugly on the streets of America in September, watch out for discussions when gas rationing (a “next pandemic”?) could become a real possibility and how unfair such an environment could create for law-abiding taxpayers; especially those Democrats and RINOs are making a priority to disarm. An ability to get to the polls would be oh-so unfair to Democrat voters; as few of them as there may be, and all attempts will be made to preserve DEMocracy by all means necessary.

It’s been seven months of people quitting their jobs at near-record highs, and businesses are continuing to complain that they just can’t find workers to fill open roles. Many have termed it a labor shortage, although five decades of declining wages argue that it’s more of a wage shortage. Even the narrative that jobs are plentiful and for the taking is not quite right: There are certainly still people not getting hired because of the mismatch between the primarily low-wage roles hiring and workers’ qualifications.

Depending on where you get your “news”, you’ll hear a variety of explanations of why so many are electing not to return to the workplace. There’s also one very logical (and unmentioned) reason why so many are not going to go back: who would want to be immersed in an intolerant, politically-correct, woke space where it’s become praiseworthy, commonplace for some to try and cancel the hand that feeds you?

As far as Gen Z is concerned, it’s been their way or the highway on campus; so why should corporate life be any different? Unsurprisingly, Gen Z has rolled into the office place with demands. Bosses report employees asking for time off for period cramps or anxiety. They pressure their employers to take a stand on contentious social issues like BLM. And, if they don’t get their way, they’ll simply walk out. Workers in the previous generation — millennials — have served as a test case of how this mindset wreaks havoc on the workplace.
— New York Post, 6/11/22

Most older experienced employees would just want to do their job and do it well, but they’d be surrounded by young know-it-alls who demand mental health days, demand others be considerate of their feelings when they insist on doing things wrong and the expected negative results subsequently happen.

Monster.com’s 2022 global report found “more than 9 out of 10 employers (nationally) say they are struggling to fill positions because of a skills gap, and 29% agree that the skills gap has increased compared to a year ago.” And it’s hurting the economy, nationally and locally.
— Yahoo News, 6/3/22

Irrelevant issues like preferred pronouns and sexual preferences become dominate distractions that detracts from productivity and the lack of professionalism becomes something quite unattractive to anyone who just wants to do a job.

Call it a disruptor, but today’s younger woke employees have broken the normal employment cycle and you see it almost everywhere. Corporations that have long established a tradition of stability are tanking because the introduction of social issues, unrelated to their products, and have made them not worthy of their customers’ hard-earned dollars. We’re past the point of young people screwing up the business and older people can’t be paid enough to come in to clean things up.

Leaders should also consider the fact that this group has no desire to come back to work. Their main reasons for leaving are retirement and sickness, although the research shows that this started at least two years before the pandemic and wasn’t affected much by the pandemic itself.
— Management Today, 6/1/22

Woke work environments have been around for more than the last two years.

One small upside of the coming “hurricane” is that a lot a companies will have the perfect excuse to purge the woke and once a good percentage are gone, mature employees may reenter the workplace to do the job they’re hired to do.

The transformation of America is underway.

UPDATE (validation)

It takes ten years or so for the aforementioned cycle to be verified. Gen Z has sped up the professional assessment of their true “value”.

In a Dec. 2023 study, the New Jersey-based research group Intelligent surveyed 800 U.S. managers, directors and executives who are involved in hiring. The respondents reported that Gen Z candidates struggle to pick up professional cues, causing 39% of employers to favor hiring older candidates.

About 60% of employers said they are willing to offer more benefits and pay higher salaries to attract older workers rather than recent grads. For that same reason, 48% of employers are offering remote or hybrid positions to older employees and 46% are willing to hire overqualified candidates, according to the new study.

One in five employers reported that recent college grads are generally unprepared when it comes to interviewing for a job. More than half of employers surveyed said Gen Z candidates struggle the most with eye contact during interviews.

Candidates in this age group also ask for unreasonable salaries and have dressed inappropriately for in-person interviews, according to about half of the study respondents.

Even virtual interviews have posed issues, with 21% of employers reporting that some candidates refuse to turn on their cameras for the interview. Nearly 20% of employers said they’ve even had a recent college grad bring a parent to an interview.

Two in three employers reported that Gen Z employees are unable to manage their workloads, while about 60% said they are frequently late to work and often miss assignment deadlines.

Sixty-three percent of employers consider Gen Z employees to be entitled, while 58% said they get offended too easily and are overall unprepared for the workforce. Employers also noted that their youngest employees lack professionalism, do not respond well to feedback and have poor communication skills.

Almost half (47%) of employers in the survey said they’ve fired a recent college graduate.

Hire wisely.

With that, it’s no surprise that those in Joe Biden’s White House alone continue to promote and defend economic policies that have negatively affected American households since the inauguration. The consistent rise in fuel prices that resulted in the cost of almost everything increasing, coupled with the double-whammy of inflation, will take a negative toll on the American cost of living until the Biden administration comes to a jubilant end.

One reason Biden’s White House stubbornly stays their ideological course, ignoring the nation’s pain, is because it clearly doesn’t affect them too much. After all, if most of us were bringing home close to $3000 a week, life would be a bit more comfortable, especially if proximity to a White House gig made it possible for a spouse to acquire a great paying job as well.

We could literally go on and on.

If there are any shortages of consumer goods that plague taxpayers, there are no shortage of those in the D.C. area who’ll gladly hook these White House staffers up so their lives aren’t inconvenienced any longer than necessary. Don’t forget, the White House is only one part of the federal government with inflation-proof salaried employees.

The federal government employs nearly 9.1 million workers, comprising nearly 6 percent of total employment in the United States. The figure includes nearly 2.1 million federal employees, 4.1 million contract employees, 1.2 million grant employees….

Government employment operates separately from market forces and causes a disconnect from the economy. During downturns, many businesses have to pull back on operations or payroll, but since Washington has the power of taxation and printing dollars, there is no incentive for tightening its belt beyond vapid election year promises.
— The Hill, 4/14/19

The majority of Biden’s White House are “earning” more than enough to cover a mortgage/rent, utilities, food, and all the creature comforts afforded to those who are paid well while not have to show any physical product produced. We’re sure they do create a lot of Word documents, talk a lot on the phone, send and receive a bunch of emails, and attend meetings. Their offices are air conditioned, some may even have meals catered for them and the American people are privileged enough to pay for their time.

Time that includes making our lives more miserable every day the Biden administration continues, and until they start to feel a personal economic squeeze, they could care less.
