<p>Greetings from Tyler,</p>
<p>It’s been another week of pitiful embarrassments, as<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://www.newsweek.com/ukraine-weapons-military-aid-pleged-nato-summit-vilnius-lithuania-1812381"><span style="color: #008000;">world leaders exchange glances</span></a><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space" style="color: #008000;"> </span>at televised events.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The video of him pulling his chair on the beach says it all.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>They’ve edited that scene out of some videos, for good reason.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The only question now is, will he get to see how all this turns out?</p>

Army Reserves have been called up</a><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span></span>and are being sent to the perimeter of the Ukrainian war.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It’s turning into the 21<sup>st</sup><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span>Century Vietnam.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Only everybody switched sides.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>What are the Reserves for?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>A display of readiness should things go to the next level?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Or intended to confuse Putin into believing that we’re prepared to start WWIII over what’s left of Ukraine?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It seems like our tranquility is being disturbed by the Biden administration.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Whoever is calling the shots.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>The Secret Service called a Congressional briefing to let everybody know that the<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space" style="color: #008000;"> </span><a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/no-fingerprints-dna-found-on-baggie-of-cocaine-left-in-white-house-lobby/ar-AA1dR5Ji"><span style="color: #008000;">coke case has gone cold</span>.</a><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>They cannot<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>solve it, not even with all the forensic means available.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Certainly not with cameras!<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>There are three or four documentary series on TV, where the most complex crimes are solved.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>But this time they’re stumped, and furthermore no<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>one should worry any longer because it’s been officially declared dead.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>So let that be the end of that.</p>
<p>Did you see any of the<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/house/nine-takeaways-fbi-wray">Chris Wray testimony</a></span><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span>before the Senate Judiciary Committee?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>He held his own, but got told off by several conservative Senators.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The stock answer is that the matter at hand is under active investigation and therefore not to be discussed.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It seems like that was the answer to quite a few questions.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>If something is under investigation, nobody can talk about it.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>What an ingenious device!<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The excerpts go on and on.</p>
<p>Why must they make us all complicit?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We’re not celebrating any of their goofy months or weeks or whatever.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Who decides this nonsense?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>They can’t ban us all, can they?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It’s as if all kinds of ideology has been applied to society in general, and you better not step out of line lest some wire be tripped, and oops, you’re canceled.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Is this what we’re facing?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We have to lock arms with anti-God idiots to survive?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We’ll pass.</p>
<p>It is probably already too late to turn this juggernaut around.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>We’ve been<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.usdebtclock.org/index.html">spent into debt</a></span><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span>in terms that are difficult to comprehend.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The interest on American debt is set to supersede some of the most cherished government programs in coming years.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>But Ukraine!</p>
<p>How long has society been practicing “affirmative action?”<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The Supreme Court just ruled the practice un-Constitutional, and you should hear the howling.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It’s been understood for decades that<span style="color: #008000;"><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://nypost.com/2023/06/29/affirmative-action-was-an-injustice-to-people-of-all-races/">institutions have their rules for admission, and…</a></span><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Well, they’re not going to be able to go by those rules in the future.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>No doubt somebody will come up with another righteous theory, and it’ll take another thirty or forty years to straighten out.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>But in the meantime true believers are losing it.</p>
<p>Who wants to join the military?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Apparently it’s become a bastion of woke philosophy, and recruits are not easy to come by.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>The military has become a<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.newsweek.com/republicans-ban-racial-diversity-offices-inside-military-1812968">testing ground for equity, diversity and inclusion.</a></span><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>You know that must be great for morale.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>No wonder<span style="color: #008000;"><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/fewer-young-americans-are-enlisting-is-patriotism-waning/ar-AA1dhrKB">recruiting is difficult.</a></span><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>In addition, who wants to be on the front lines when<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>they’re flirting with WWIII?</p>
<p>Is it true that we’re burning through so many munitions in Ukraine, that the administration is having to send cluster bombs?<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>It’s hard to imagine that the<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.cfr.org/article/how-much-aid-has-us-sent-ukraine-here-are-six-charts">U. S. is dipping deeply into its supplies</a></span><span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space"> </span>because Putin has greedy intentions.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Ukraine has been reduced largely to rubble.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>Heart wrenching scenes of mothers emerging from bombed buildings wondering where to go.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>I’m sure the experts have it all figured out.</p>
<p>There’s no question that the U.

<p>It doesn’t look too good and God cannot be amused anymore than we are.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>America better get back to its founding principles and turn against all this godless philosophy, or everything’s going to go horribly wrong.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">  </span>That’s how it works.<span class="gmail-Apple-converted-space">    </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Greetings from Tyler,</p>
<p>There have been a lot of times over the years where you think the population has lost its mind.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The anchors with furrowed brows, so transparent in their deceit.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>So the long-awaited<span style="color: #008000;"> <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/damning-durham-report">Durham Report</a></span> has come out.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Presumably he got to the bottom of it.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I remember wondering at the time how much of our lives they would dare waste with nonsense.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But, as you know, the mainstream ate it up.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Boy!<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Was Donald Trump in trouble this time!<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Day after day, month after month, for two and a half years there was expert speculation about treasonous crimes.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It would seem appropriate if they’d have to answer for the countless hours of valuable airtime they spent trying to convince us of what they thought.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Or what they wanted us to think.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Did they really believe any of the nonsense they were reporting?</p>
<p>The Durham Report?<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>A big nothing-burger.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Some of the “experts” are still ranting.</p>
<p>You just can’t go by what is being preached on every network but maybe two.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2023/05/15/turley_at_what_point_do_we_have_a_de_facto_state_media_the_press_is_consenting_to_this_no_coercion_needed.html">press behavior around the big guy</a></span> is unconscionable by any standard.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Any questions about scandal?<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>They’ve made a decision somewhere that if it’s ignored it’ll go away.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But they may have miscalculated.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The stuff they’re involved in may be too big to fail. But it’s like all the people who matter are on the same page.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Not only that, they’ve squandered their credibility.</p>
<p>They’ve delayed the inevitable by three years, so far.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But the officials and agencies are guilty of selective targeting and untold malfeasance.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>The Fake News has another misdirecting story for their audience.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Even the attempts to manipulate us have become so apparent, it’s hard to stand.</p>
<p>We’ve been told (by polls and experts) that half the country is pure lunatic.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>That doesn’t seem right somehow.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Sure, a lot of them are caught up in some fad that they’ll hopefully outgrow.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But if reality ever dawns…<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Sooner or later it will.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But surely half the country can’t be crazy!</p>
<p>It was some weeks ago that somebody asked a European diplomat what would happen in the event of the U. S. defaulting on it’s debt.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>She said the ramifications would be so severe, that it just couldn’t and wouldn’t happen.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span><a href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/us-stocks-close-lower-after-republicans-and-the-white-house-hit-an-impasse-in-debt-ceiling-talks/ar-AA1bq6In"><span style="color: #008000;">But here we are again, the two parties playing tough.</span></a><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>When you consider how much is being spent going green, or whatever, and then the military services getting involved in some of this idiotic nonsense, it’s enough to disgust everybody.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>If you don’t count the ones who are giggling and congratulating themselves for having brought it about.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But no one dares say a word, or they’ve got all kinds of devastating names to call you. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Call it what you want, but the <em>Sports Illustrated</em> has put some of the most beautiful women ever in it’s magazines.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In swimsuits, mostly.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But here comes word that <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment/entertainment-celebrity/sports-illustrated-faces-backlash-over-trans-pop-star-kim-petras-as-swimsuit-issue-cover-model/ar-AA1bhuBD">they’ve decided to put a dude in drag on display.</a></span><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>In a swimsuit.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>This can’t be a good move, financially.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://ijr.com/anheuser-busch-execs-hit-bad-news-bud-light-sales-not/">May they reap the whirlwind that Bud Lite created</a></span>.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>We’re looking forward to a full blown disaster.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>I guess supermodels are going broke.<span class="Apple-converted-space">   </span></p>
<p>We’re finding out to our dismay, that the three letter agencies are not dealing off the top of the deck.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2023/05/18/watch_live_fbi_whistleblowers_testify_at_weaponization_of_government_hearing.html">Do you believe the stories of the “whistle-blowers”?</a></span><span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>They’re giving testimony that’s just devastating to whatever credibility remains in the eyes of the public.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>But we didn’t even need their testimony.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It’s confirmation of what we already knew must be going on.</p>
<p>It’s really getting old, the news telling us things on full authority that isn’t even true, but was cooked up for the sole reason of shaping our thinking.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>We hope that this can be worked out through familiar channels, but the indoctrination goes pretty deep. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
<p>Sports Illustrated thinks they’re going to change our minds by putting some glamorous trans on the cover?<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>There used to be a commercial on all the time, probably margarine.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>It said, “It’s not nice to fool mother nature.”<span class="Apple-converted-space">    </span></p>
