Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

They will eat their own, specially if money is involved.

I click open Twitter and I see this making the rounds:

Apparently there is some sort of tiff and I would even dare to suggest an unpaid bill between The Faux Beheader and The Liberal Ambulance Chaser.

It is never good to piss your lawyer off. Ms. Bloom chose to respond:

Now, I do not know if that happened, but since Kathy Griffin is known as a comedian and is known for saying off the cuff things, Bloom’s tale tends to be a bit more believable.

Anyway, the end result is the same:

12 Strong.

The first warriors on the ground in Afghanistan after 9/11 were not Delta or the Seals or some super-duper bunch of Door Kickers, it was a team of Green Berets who literally helped bring down the Taliban government with a GPS, a radio and on horseback…yes, horseback. While the rest of the military was trying to unfuck themselves back at home, they were in the middle of a country that had no love for America engaging people that they did not trust in order to bring down the government that supported Bin Laden and his attack on US Soil.

No, the preview is not exaggerating. They never rode horses, yet they learned and ended up in a cavalry charge against modern armor and artillery…and they fucking won.

If you can’t wait for the movie, get the book Horse Soldiers by Doug Stanton.

 

More reasons why we need to get the f*** out of the United Nations

Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe has been called a lot of things by supporters and critics over his 94 years on this planet: revolutionary; freedom fighter; dictator; alleged perpetrator of human rights violations. He’s about to add another controversial moniker to the list—”Goodwill Ambassador” to the World Health Organization (WHO).
New WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced that Mugabe would be a goodwill ambassador to the public health agency at a conference in Uruguay. Mugabe, according to Ghebreyesus, who is from Ethiopia, could then leverage the high profile (if largely symbolic) role “to influence his peers in his region,” ostensibly referring to African countries. Mugabe would be an ambassador on broad health issues like noncommunicable diseases such as heart disease and cancer.

After Fidel, Robert Mugabe was best pals with Hugo Chavez.

So the United Nations once again shows that they are more into making sure Socialist Dictators get Good Buddy badges than actually tackle people suffering under their regimes.

You country racked by Malaria, TB and HIV? No problem, we got you. Neonatal and Under-Five Child Mortality out of control? Call it population control.

I am honoured to be joined by President Mugabe, of Zimbabwe, a country that places universal health coverage and health promotion at the centre of its policies to provide health care to all.
Today I am also honoured to announce that President Mugabe has agreed to serve as a goodwill ambassador on NCDs for Africa to influence his peers in his region to prioritize NCDs.

These were the words of Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General of the World Health Organization. and former Minister of Health for Ethiopia, another Socialist from a Country without very much in the public health department.

We do need to GTFO.
