Weekly Update by Mark Armstrong – February 16, 2024

Greetings from Tyler,

It might be a good time to risk a peak at the mainstream news.  Even they couldn’t choke down Ms. Willis’ testimony yesterday.  Millions no doubt tuned in this morning to continue to watch the proceedings unfold, only to be told that she wouldn’t be appearing.  What a disappointment!  The Black Panther father who raised her is taking the stand today, after the surprise that there were no further questions for Fani.  They couldn’t take it anymore.  If you saw an extended exchange, you’ll know what I mean.

Mr. Wade appeared the day before.  There’s no need to explain the apparent trouble they’re in.  But it’s just business as usual.  They apparently want so badly to bring down Donald Trump that they think they can withstand the legal scrutiny by being confused, surprised, combative and several other adjectives.  It’s rather comical that they think they will be the ones to bring down Donald Trump.  

Apparently they’re trying to strip him of his empire with the New York court case.  They want all his assets under the claim that he overvalued his empire in order to obtain loans.  Which were paid without default.  Who ever heard of a case where no one was injured, even financially?  The sanctions are severe, but probably won’t stand the test of appeals. They think they can strip him of his wealth by making these claims after the fact.

It’s almost like people sat in a room and devised multiple tacks on which to prosecute the most popular candidate in memory.  They’ll bring him down if it’s the last thing they do!  We’ve lost track, but Trump’s lawyers haven’t.  It’s death by a thousand cuts, but the prosecutors are not up to it as you can see.  Who knows how these court cases eventually turn out.  The media is busy adding up the value of Trump’s assets, trying to figure out what he’ll do if the New York ruling stands.

You know there’s absolute panic among his detractors with government jobs.  He played nice last time, but they have kept using everything they can think of to get rid of him.  He’s still winning, and they’re scared to death about the prospect of him returning to the presidency.

It’s not the only absurdity we’re being treated to.  News from the border is too heartbreaking to watch.  Get ready for a crime wave.  It’s already underway, and we don’t know the half of it.  Who’d have thought that importing millions of desperate people who don’t speak the language would turn out so badly?  To hear Trump tell it, they’re not sending their best.  Have you seen the photos of the perpetrators of police beat-down in Times Square?  Let’s hope these aren’t the average.  

Suddenly we’ve seen an outbreak of mass shootings.  You don’t want to attend a celebration of a sports victory.  Somebody might have a grudge against somebody else.  Gangs will be there, and they’ll be armed.  There’s an article on the Drudge Report about how black people are moving to Africa for a better life.  

It looks like they’re trying to start WWIII in Europe.  When you look at the world now, versus three years ago, there are wars and rumors of wars to be sure. The righteous view is that the U. S. must keep sending countless billions to Ukraine because Putin is a bad guy.  We’ve known that for some time.  Other European nations are threatening to get involved. Tucker Carlson went over and interviewed Putin at length, and everybody’s outraged.  How dare he interview Putin!

Simultaneously we have news that Alexei Navalny has died in prison.  We’ve known that he was a vocal foe of the Russian leadership, organizing protests of one form or another.  If you’ve read anything about Navalny,  you know that the Russian hierarchy has been trying to get rid of him for years. He accused the “regime” in general and Vladimir Putin in particular of rampant corruption.  

We’re hearing that Israel’s troops are going to move into Rafah, the infamous border crossing from the Gaza strip to Egypt.  There are undoubtedly terrorists hiding among the civilians.  There’s no predicting what will happen, but it won’t be pretty.  

We don’t even want to know what atrocities the brave Islamic warriors committed.  But they filmed much of it.  There’s a limit to how much the human mind can take in, and they’ve gone well beyond it.  Hostages are still held, no doubt some being abused.  And the civilized world thinks it can persuade Israel to go easy.  It’s not working, at all.
