Weekly Update by Mark Armstrong – December 16, 2022

Greetings from Tyler,

We can hardly watch news from the border.  The third world is flooding into Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and California.  The administration has other priorities.  It can’t be bothered with questions about the invasion that’s taking place.  We’re being warned that the human flood that we can’t even watch is about to get a whole lot worse.  What’s going on?  I think I heard it somewhere, “If you don’t have a border, you don’t have a country.”  We’ve seen the seizures of deadly drugs.  The statistics are mind-numbing.  The news shows us that the “migrants” are wearing wristbands showing that they’ve paid the cartels for organizing this disaster.  It looks like we’re cooperating with the cartels.  Can this ever be turned around?

No, the war in Ukraine is much more important.  If the pretender can make out the words on the teleprompter, we’ll all be put in our place and realize that the war in Ukraine is the most important thing going on.  And it might be.  We’ve long-since lost track of the money that’s been sent, and not just from the U. S.  They’ve been begging all the Western nations, warning of dire consequences should Ukraine once again become a Russian possession.  You hear of the “domino effect,” and wonder whether we’re headed for world war.  

Never mind the domino effect.  We’re told that the missile systems we’re providing require American operators.  Yesterday the big headline on the Drudge Report was that Putin was readying his nuclear arsenal for attacks on Western nations.  You have to consider the source.  But it looks as though most of the concern is way off in Eastern Europe.

Every bad actor on earth knows it’s the time to move.  We certainly hope the pretender is not the one making decisions.  He’s shepherded around by people who tell him what to say, and he tries to put a little of that pretender spin on it.  You think he would dare balk at anything he’s told to say or do?  He’s in deep trouble as it is, and will need all the cooperation he can get in the months ahead.  It’s going to be gut-wrenching if the Ukrainian and Chinese dealings are ever taken up by the mainstream media.  

Elon Musk used to be a darling of the left. Then he bought Twitter. Now Mr. Musk is their whipping boy. The mainstream media is just beside themselves that free speech, wrong or right, would be allowed in the public square. It’s an outrage to the tech world and the government agencies that they can’t control information anymore. At least they control the TV networks, the newspapers and most social media concerns. They’d love to ban Musk himself. It turns out that some of these reporters were tracking his private jet and his personal calendar. He pulled the plug on their accounts. Now they’re screaming from the rooftops that he’s silencing reporters from big papers. He says they’re trying to get him assassinated.  

He keeps dropping secret Twitter information revealing that the social media company was meeting with the heads of government agencies with requests for the banishment of “disinformation.” They couldn’t allow free speech on the subject of Covid 19! They couldn’t allow mandated closures to be discussed by regular people!  

I hate to be the one to break it, but it looks like the wall has cracked and there will be enough embarrassment to go around once the inner workings are exposed.  You’ve heard it, “They’re a private company and they can do whatever they want.”  It gets a little dicey when they’re fulfilling the requests of government agencies, with regulatory power.  And they call us “fascists.”  

It won’t be any fun hearing about the corruption.  It’s just so embarrassing for the country.  It’s liable to be ruinous to the pretender. The broad outlines are available, but you wonder what this administration will do to make sure we don’t understand the full extent of it.
