Destroying the police

The left has to destroy local and state police so that they can replace them with Federal police. They need centralized control so that they can consolidate power into one location.

So they advocate for “fixing toxic police” and “unbundling” police departments. The more they do that, the more crime and lawlessness. Once that happens, people will clamor for the Federal government to step in and “fix” the problem.

China Building Supercarrier

China’s new aircraft carrier will be as large as the Ford class, will have electromagnetic catapults, and will thus be able to operate large, first class aircraft and AEW aircraft.

This ship is for power projection, and China will have four aircraft carriers by the end of next year. The US Navy only has 5 carriers in the Pacific fleet.

The USA is busy focusing on using the military against its own citizens and in diversity. The Russians and Chinese are about to make the US irrelevant.

April 19

April 19 is a busy day in US history. I get a sneaky suspicion that there will be an addition to this list for 2021. I hope that this suspicion is unfounded.

1995 Oklahoma City Bombing

1993 The Waco siege ended when the FBI burned the compound to the ground

1989- A gun turret of the USS Iowa explodes. I was nearby on another ship. Had friends on the crew. The Navy tried to make one of the dead sailors into a patsy.

1985 – Two hundred ATF and FBI agents lay siege to the compound of the white supremacist survivalist group The Covenant, The Sword, and the Arm of the Lord in Arkansas; the CSA surrenders two days later.

1865 Abraham Lincoln’s funeral is held

1861 First Union soldier killed by rioters in Baltimore while quelling pro-secession riot

1775 Battle of Lexington and Concord

SCOTUS update

Just one day after my post on packing the Supreme Court, the Democrats have decided not to wait for Biden’s commission to pack the court. They are going to announce a bill on Thursday to expand the court from 9 members to 13. Of course this means that Biden would get to nominate 4 members to the court, and would give them an 8 to 5 majority an every issue to come before the court.

I know some Republicans would be saying, “The next time the Republicans get a majority, they could simply increase the SCOTUS from 13 to 17.”

After watching the last election, does anyone think there will EVER be another Republican majority?

Disney more woke?

Having lived in the shadow of the mouse for decades, I can’t tell you just how stunning it is that Disney World is relaxing grooming requirements- called “The Disney Look.” The story behind that is that Walt Disney once took his brother’s children to a carnival. He saw the unkempt workers and decided that he wanted to open a park where a family could take their children to see a wholesome, family oriented carnival. The idea of Disneyland was born, and that look remained unchained for over four decades.

Now all of that is changing. Disney says that they want to be more inclusive. One of the people in comments wasn’t happy and said so. One lefty responded:

“Cast Members” include all employees, not just those who dress up as characters. Those who clean the bathrooms, man the retail shops, the food service workers etc. ALL employees, not just the characters. So this is great, makes more opportunity for more people, If the MAGA crowd cannot stand to even LOOK at people different than they are, I suggest they go somewhere, like an island, where they can all look at each other and not be offended.

This is more projection- I am betting you that if the tattoo looks like this, the person criticizing above wouldn’t be so supportive of inclusion.
