Joe Biden's Democrat Party - the champion of the unwashed and stupid masses

"For Americans who are living paycheck to paycheck, the impacts of inflation can be even more devastating. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell warned lawmakers on Tuesday that high inflation takes a toll "particularly for those less able to meet the higher costs of essentials," such as food, housing and transportation. "People sometimes talk about inflation being kind of 'the cruelest tax' that really hurts poor people disproportionately, and I can see that certainly to be the case," Spatt told ABC News." Now, be a good little stooge, put your ridiculous mask on your ugly mug and go get your Covid-19 vaccination or booster or whatever the hell else your wonderful el Presidente' tells you to do. The fucking flying monkeys from The Wizard of Oz had more common sense.

I Was Truly Blessed to Have Such Wonderful Pets

Biden the Hapless Bag Holder

"A Hinsdale stock trader voiced his annoyance with an increase in Chipotle’s burrito price. He walked out of the eatery after learning the price of a burrito was more than $9, when it previously hovered around $8.50." - From the Chicago Tribune. After years of “serving” in lower government positions and jockeying for the “Big Chair”, Joe Biden now finds himself in position to be the fall guy for years of reckless government overreach and meddling. He epitomizes the phrase “be careful what you wish for because you might get it”. Jimmy Carter was not a terrible person. He was a more gentle and eloquent man than is Joe Biden and he ultimately appointed the Federal Reserve Chairman that broke the back of inflation (and cost Jimmy Carter his job). I’m talking about Paul “Balls of Steel” Volker who warned Carter before his appointment that getting prices back in line and protecting the value of the nation’s currency was going to be his primary job. People across the nation who had become the beneficiaries of the “Stagflation Environment” were enraged over Volker’s actions. The producers and end sellers of high end products who were overly reliant upon credit sales to move their products hated Volker’s Fed. Car dealers, builders, real estate agents, banks, savings and loan enterprises (remember them??) were being squeezed. Any business that sold shit on credit had their nuts in a set of vice grips and Paul was squeezing them. Did he do it out of spite? No. He did it because “great Americans” had once again gone bananas with the use of credit in their God given fucking right to pursue their dreams. There is no lender without a borrower. Everyone was to blame and spending and credit sales had gone nuts. It had been coming for a while. Vietnam, LBJ’s “Great Society” and the fucking costs that went along with it, NASA forays into space, welfare expansion, etc., etc. all had costs. The movement of people out of cities and into rapidly expanding suburbs all had costs. A lot of those costs had been covered by borrowing. The borrowing and spending of those days is dwarfed by the borrowing and spending of today. “The War on Terror” that dragged on for 20 fucking years, Obama phones, enhanced unemployment, EBT, the Space Force, four thousand (plus) square foot houses for two people and a Bichon Frise, a Lexus on lease with the option to buy at the end of the term, a Visa with a twenty grand limit, a populace that is obsessed with ways to “boost their credit score”, student loan forgiveness after reckless student loan borrowing, etc., etc., etc. Sound familiar? This country has lost its fucking mind (again). Powell is trying to “talk it down off of the ledge” and it remains to be seen if he will be successful. Biden was not my choice for president but he will be the unfortunate scapegoat for problems that were not his sole creation. Were I in his shoes, I’d say “Fuck it. If I’m going to be blamed for this God damned mess, I’m going out in a blaze of glory.” If Powell shrinks away from the task, I’d find a Volker disciple replacement and tell him (or her) to do what is necessary to break this bitch. Tell these whiny ass fuckers in no uncertain terms that the party is over.

Is His Name Really Anthony Fauci or Is It Really Thom Bray (Boz) From TV's "Riptide"??

The Stock Market Is As Fake and Manipulated As My Marriage to My Ex-Wife

"How many contracts had to be bought in order to turn the market up? Who has that kind of juice? Because it was like walking in front of a train. Dow down -1100? No prob. Qs off a cliff? They dove after them and put a pillow underneath. Someones got enough firepower to make that play and not worry if they fail." "The market spoke today and was immediately silenced before the bell. This is not the first time. Instantaneous coordinated buying > $3.1T is an AI-driven play with infinite pockets. We all watched it happen today and have seen it before- even in the gold market where sudden trades exceeded the actual stock of physical metal on planet earth. Only the Central banks can manipulate the markets in real time at this magnitude and hide their activity. This central bank coordination demonstrates that the WEF can time the crash at will- without market-driven volatility or pricing signals as a warning." "It's painfully obvious to even someone with one functioning brain cell that these "markets" are as phony as the Easter Bunny, Unicorns and Covid 19 vaccines. This is all going to end very badly for those market participants who can't see the magicians hands." "This is a bull trap. Market will tank tomorrow and the next few weeks. Watch out for Fed report on Wed." "Once you’ve lived through trading the 2008 market crash, you could see this coming a mile away. Bear markets are extremely volatile with incredible swings in both directions. It will chop you up and spit you out in the worst of ways, bulls and bears alike. The scars of navigating that event still haunt me today and I was positioned bearish. I’m not saying this is the beginning of a bear market, but then again who knows. Trade carefully." "Futures are in the toilet. The Fed will have to buy stocks tomorrow too." "There’s no logic to the clown show." These are some blog comments following the wild ride on Wall Street today.

He Was a Joy and Laugh Riot At Times

Soon, Open Jobs Will Be Filled or They Will Evaporate Into Thin Air

"Stop all this weeping, swallow your pride/ You will not die, its not poison -Tombstone Blues”
My advice to the picky and unemployed - don't be too picky for too long. Musical chairs has winners and losers. Jobless claims unexpectedly rise to 286,000, highest since October - says the headline. Some people are expecting that employers will continue to keep adding to the number of new jobs available and that this is a temporary uptick in the unemployment number. I could be wrong but I don't think that is going to happen. Slowing sales, aging boomers, over indebted middle and lower classes - our consumer driven economy is going to go through changes as employers adjust and figure out ways to operate without as many employees - one year from now, I see people ready, willing and able to fill jobs that they currently believe to be "beneath them".

We're Going Full Retard

"Illegal immigrants worried about having proper identification to fly can now use an arrest warrant as an alternate form of ID when presenting to airport security, according to a TSA letter obtained by the Daily Caller. Responding to Republican Texas Rep. Lance Gooden’s Dec. 15 inquiry about illegal migrants flying across the country, TSA Administrator David Pekoske explained that certain Department of Homeland Security (DHS) documents may be considered acceptable forms of alternate identification for non-citizens, including a “Warrant for Arrest of Alien” and a “Warrant of Removal/Deportation.” -Daily Caller
At this point, I expect the Department of Agriculture to advise farmers to start watering their crops with Gatorade.

I Will So Miss Him

I went to one of his favorite parks today, listened to "Songbird" and had a good cry. He was the best.

For you, there'll be no more crying For you, the sun will be shining And I feel that when I'm with you It's alright, I know it's right To you, I'll give the world To you, I'll never be cold 'Cause I feel that when I'm with you It's alright, I know it's right And the songbirds are singing, Like they know the score And I love you, I love you, I love you Like never before And I wish you all the love in the world But most of all, I wish it from myself And the songbirds keep singing Like they know the score And I love you, I love you, I love you Like never before, like never before, Like never before.

The Years Have Passed Quickly

This was taken June 11, 2011 when he arrived home in St. Louis. He was a beautiful boy that turned into a very handsome bird dog.

Lastly, About January 6 - Removing or Forgetting Your History Has Consequences

It's not the first time that protests at the Capitol have turned violent or deadly - July 28, 1932 "In protest to the Senate's action, the Bonus Army veterans marched down Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol Building. The D.C. police reacted violently, resulting in the deaths of two veterans and two police officers." "The principal demand of the Bonus Army was the immediate cash payment of their certificates. On July 28, 1932, U.S. Attorney General William D. Mitchell ordered the veterans removed from all government property. Washington police met with resistance, shot at the protestors, and two veterans were wounded and later died." WWI veterans asking the government to pay them the bonus they had been promised to fight the Hun in Europe.

January 6 Coverage, Omicron & The Upcoming Mid-Terms

The Democrats are setting a table. The breathless coverage over the January 6 riot in D.C. and Biden's speech reveals that they intend to keep Donald Trump out of politics and paint his supporters as domestic terrorists (that's like half of the country and mostly people who work for a living and grow the food necessary to sustain life - don't believe me? Just drive through rural Illinois and note the number of anti Biden and anti Pritzker signs on display). Make no mistake; Illinois is blue primarily because of the moochers in Chicagoland and because of a dwindling number of older voters who have the idiotic habit of being a "straight Democrat ticket" robot. They are like zombies - they can be relied upon to go to the polls and mindlessly vote "D" for everything from President to dog catcher. The good news for Illinois is that they are rapidly dying off. The moochers tend to kill one another at an alarming rate and the old guard "D" voters are like the proverbial turd circling the bowl during a good flush. Congress is currently contemplating a return to Covid stimulus for the unwashed masses - never mind the incredible debt already facing the country and further destruction of what remained of a work ethic in the U.S. Needing cash to further pay off their constituents, they are going to again try to reach up into Jay Powell’s rectum and pull out some Yankee Dollars. At this point, his asshole must be about as whopped out as Lisa Ann’s after a good old fashion BBC session on Porn Hub. Eviction relief funding is being depleted faster than anticipated so look for a push to refill that pork barrel soon. Biden decided to kick the can down the road for the debt serf student class that helped him defeat the Evil Orange Man but the date for repayment is to begin in May - those ass clowns have not been able to "get it together" for over two years now so I doubt that giving them an additional 90 days is going to help much. That default is coming. One way or another, that generation of over indebted pussies is going to default. It’s not a question of “if” but “when”. Lastly, Omicron coverage is wall to wall and nonstop. This is going to be trotted out as the excuse for the continued use of “early voting”, “mail-in voting”, “absentee early mail-in voting”, “voting on behalf of your deceased or bedridden relative”, “voting on behalf of your dog”, etc., etc., etc. The fun never stops when it comes to your God given fucking right to vote…because, you know, Covid….

"A Spokesperson Did Not Comment" - your silence is deafening

"The Fed initially described the Feb. 27 transaction as a previously planned move by Mr. Clarida away from bonds and into stocks, the type of “rebalancing” investors often do when they want to take on more risk and earn higher returns over time. But the rapid move out of stocks and then back in makes it look less like a planned, long-term financial maneuver and more like a response to market conditions. “It undermines the claim that this was portfolio rebalancing,” said Peter Conti-Brown, a Fed historian at the University of Pennsylvania. “This is deeply problematic.” The Fed did not provide further explanation of Mr. Clarida’s trade when asked why he had sold and bought in quick succession. Asked if the Fed stood by previous indications that the move was a rebalancing, a spokesperson did not comment." The ultimate insider job is having a seat at the table of the Federal Reserve.

Joe Biden Can Take His "Unity" and Shove It Up Nancy's Rotten Cooze

Since the nation’s media outlets will be obsessed with “the insurrection” and “the attack upon our Democracy” today, I thought I would trot out the image of Pelosi’s infamous side clap during one of Donald Trump’s speeches to Congress. The smirking. The smugness. The thinly veiled contempt that permeated the entire term of the duly elected President – she’s an awful crunt. Anyone who has had the pleasure of dealing with a petulant, entitled, fucked up piece of shit woman knows that look – I can’t stand that bitch or anyone stupid enough to think she is empowered or empowering. She’s a fucking huckster. In the coming year, I’ll be laughing my ass off watching the political class of Democrats throw their useful idiots under the bus.

Delaying the Inevitable

"On December 22, the Education Department announced it will be moving the date student-loan payments are scheduled to resume from February 1 to May 1, citing the Omicron coronavirus variant as the primary reason for the change. While this announcement did not specify whether it would be the "final" extension, contrasting the announcement in August, Biden urged federal borrowers in a statement to use the extra time to prepare for repayment in 90 days." Joe Biden is praying they will cough up the money in the spring. Meanwhile, on the eviciton frontline in Kentucky: "Proposed legislation filed by Rep. Nima Kulkarni, a Louisville Democrat, would instead require landlords to safeguard the belongings for up to 21 days, giving renters time to retrieve them." "Besides setting new rules for abandoned property, Kulkarni has proposed: Automatically expunging eviction judgments one year after they're issued, preventing them from showing up on future rental screenings" Because...you know, Covid.... This country (mostly the Democrat party) is so full of shit that its eyes are brown. The dollar deserves to lose the distinction of being the world's reserve currency. We don't pay our bills on time (unless we use the heretofore tried and true strategy of pulling dollars from the ass of who ever occupies the Chairman's seat at the Federal Reserve).

As Explained By Uncle Buck

The illogical, yet nonetheless real, aversion some people have to Donald Trump and “The Deplorables” who voted for him is akin to the hatred they have for Uncle Buck’s hat. I miss John Candy.

Theranos Board of Directors - What Do They Have In Common???

Henry Kissinger (former United States Secretary of State); Jim Mattis (retired Marine Corps four-star general); George Shultz (former United States Secretary of State); Richard Kovacevich (former CEO of Wells Fargo); William Perry (former United States Secretary of Defense); and William Foege (former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).
Let your old Uncle Kenny explain how it is that these geniuses jumped on board with this obvious snake oil saleswoman. They are elderly men who take too much Viagra and still think with their dicks. I heard a joke once – Why are you taking that prescription medication? Because your doctor got some free samples and some office stationary from a moderately attractive drug company saleswoman who makes her appearances wearing full war paint, a short skirt and some “fuck me pumps”. That’s why.
