The Platform of Chelsea Manning

Jan 17, 2018 J. Kb 9 comments

I’m going to keep covering the Manning Campaign.  This is the Left wing version of the election of Trump.

If Trump was the Right saying that they were done with career politicians and they wanted a fighter than Manning is the Left saying they are done with career politicians and want a traitor in office.

So here are a few Tweets from his Twitter feed from only the last week.

This would end the economy.  What percent of Americans who got a UBI would never work?  What percent would decide that a life of subsidized indolence is all they want?

Manning is part of the no boarders crowd.

If you combine these first two Tweets, it seems like his platform is let anybody into America who wants to come here and then give them a basic income at tax payer expense.

We might as well just up and forfeit the nation because it would invite just about every person from every third world, shithole, nation on earth to live for free on the American taxpayer’s dime.

Nope.  Just nope.  This is not the systematic hunting down and extermination of people because of their religion or ethnicity.  These are people who are arresting criminals who willfully violated federal law.  But seeing as how he violated a law that stood in the way of his politics, it’s obvious he doesn’t actually care about the law.

Here is the Fox Tweet.

There are roughly 323 Million people in the US.  That puts the “full blown domestic occupation” at 0.29% or 1 cop for every 346 people.

When the German army invaded France, they used 3.3 Million troops to take a country of roughly 41 Million people.   That means the German army had 1 solder for every 12 Frenchmen.  A ratio of 1:346 is not an occupying force.  That’s like saying Austin, Texas is occupying the United States.

But why let facts get in the way of emoji laden hysterics.

Chelsea Manning is a full blown anti-Cop, anti-functioning goverment, anti-boarders, redistributive nutjob.  This is the Antifa platform.

You would think that taking him down would be easy, but he is a god damned darling of the Left.

“Booo! I is scary!”

Senator Corey Booker had a temper tantrum against the DHS Director Kirstjen Nielsen . It was not only bad acting but a great display of the overuse of the Race Card.

But once again, it is a picture that provides a better description than a thousand words and if Senator Booker had any intention of being treated serious after this event, he can pretty much kiss it goodbye.

Jesus, what a fucking clown.

PS: It goes without saying that is a GOP Senator to a Democratic cabinet member what he did to Ms. Nielsen, the Media and the Libs would be standing in front of his house with pitchforks and torches accusing him of sexual violence.

The tide shifts in Hollywood

The Trump effect on Hollywood is going to be interesting.

There are two trailers for movies coming out in 2018 that have blown my mind.

First is CHAPPAQUIDDICK:

Holy fucking shit, does that make the Lion of the Senate and the entire Kennedy clan look like a bunch of fucking monsters.

The other is 15:17 to Paris:

A move about the 2015 Thalys attack, when three off duty American military personnel kicked the shit out of terrorists on a train in France.

If Hillary were president, I doubt either of these movies would have been made.

Not the Onion: NYC suing the Oil Companies because Superstorm Sandy.

Jan 16, 2018 Miguel.GFZ 11 comments

Mayor Bill de Blasio announced yesterday that New York City is filing a lawsuit against Big Oil, seeking unspecified damages that will likely total in the tens of billions of dollars. The immediate cause for the suit, filed against BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil, and Shell, is the damage and expenses associated with climate change— caused by the oil companies, on this view. In particular, the city wants to recoup the costs of rebuilding from Superstorm Sandy and the $20 billion that it plans to spend on storm resiliency.

Suing the Industrial Age.

Hold on, I need a minute to stop laughing.

OK, done. Damn, that is some funny shit. Now let’s get down to some comment, the reason why De Blasio is suing (besides being an idiotic Socialist) is because Superstorm Sandy did not trigger Hurricane Emergency Federal Funding. “But Miguel! It was a Superstorm!” Sorry that is made up bullshit by Chris Christie (At lest that is the first one I hear using the term) in order to see if Trenton would release some extra cash to get things fixed.

Sandy got to that area as a weak Category One Hurricane (80 mph) and when making landfall and as it happens with all hurricanes, the speeds drop down immediately and the National Weather Service downgraded it to Tropical Storm. (73 mph and under) and making all that FEMA superfunding unavailable.

If you are a regular visitor of the blog, you know Floridians have very little respect for Tropical Storms. We cannot even have a hurricane party simply because there is no hurricane.  Schools maybe close for a day and you don’t see the shelves in supermarkets bare of milk and bread. At most you make sure that the outside furniture is tied down and you bring the parrots and other birdies inside the house for the duration. And companies do not care if you house has no power, you better show up for work the next day.

Hurricane Irma hit the Keys with sustained winds of 130 mph and proceeded then to hit the West Coast of Florida with sustained winds of 115 mph and gusts up to 142 mph. Over at this side of state (125 miles away)  we were getting sustained winds 70 mph with gusts of 100 mph.  That was a fucking monster storm, not some whiny-ass rain and wind bitch soaking the panties of NYC residents.

If anything, today shows that Democrats do not learn from history. First we fiind out that they are pissed a study they ordered to prove more Gun Control is necessary goes south again but they want to do repeat it till it comes their way and then they are going to sue somebody who they claim cause the problem they had without any frigging evidence to back them up, only propaganda. It does sound so eerily familiar to the 1990s lawsuits against Gun Makers in order to get compensation for ER medical expenses they claimed were direct result of guns being tossed about in the Ghettos.

That did not go well and the Gun Companies did not have the available capital Oil Companies have to fight in court. Maybe De Blasio is seeking some sort of arrangement, a check with a billion or several hundred millions as way of sealed settlement which more likely a good part will go to lawyers friends of the Dems who will spread the wealth in campaign contributions and ultimately a house by the sea-shore for those upcoming retirement from politics years. I do hope they build them to Hurricane Specs, though.

Takes one to know one

This post starts as something that recently came to my attention but the original post goes back a year.

Melinda Byerley is the founder and owner of Timeshare CMO.  In January of 2017, she sent out a Tweet (her account is now gone) in which she posted this Facebook screen capture.

A tolerant liberal called Middle America a shithole.

Ms. Byerley has spent the last 14 years in Silicon Valley.  She is based in San Francisco.

Let’s talk about shitholes.  San Francisco is one, literally.  It is a city filled with the excrement of homeless people.  Also needles.  Shit and needles fill the streets and alleyways of the City by the Bay.

There is an interactive map of where homeless people are shitting to help locals avoid the worst of it.

At the state level, California is the poverty capital of America.

Taxes are driving billions of dollars of business out of the state.

Investors has been tracking the business leaving the state, a trend which has been going up.

Toyota pulled 3,000 jobs out of California and moved them to Texas.

Not just did Toyota pull out of California but “Toyota Motor Corp. and Mazda Motor Corp. announced in August a joint venture to build a $1.6 billion assembly plant in the U.S. which would create 4,000 jobs and be up and running by 2021.”

Where are they going to built their plant?  San Fran-Shithole?  Nope.

Huntsville, Alabama.  Rocket City, USA.

So what does all that elitism in Silicon Valley get them?

One of the second highest costs of living in North America and streets full of human shit.

Us in “shithole” Middle America are happy to take the jobs you are hemorrhaging.

When Democrats were Republicans

I wanted left a comment on Miguel’s last post, that was until today, my favorite quote by Daniel Patrick Moynihan:

Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.

Today I found a quote by the beloved, moderate, “gentleman from New York” Democrat Senator, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, when he was ambassador to India:

“Food growing is the first thing you do when you come down out of the trees. The question is, how come the United States can grow food and you can’t?”

Seems to me like he was asking the question “Why is India such a shithole?”
