No Justice For Laken Riley

Was justice for Laken Riley served today? It is hard to say.

 

Jose Ibarra was found guilty and was sentenced to life imprisonment without parole. But he did not show remorse; he did not show regret; he did not express empathy nor sympathy.

Instead, he showed indifference and coldness, a cruel soul and a cold heart. And hate.

He had no feeling for the family and friends of Laken sitting in the gallery. For her Mom, who was sobbing for having lost her child. Her Dad and Step-Dad. Her sister. Her friends.

He was a criminal BEFORE he illegally came into this country. Because the Biden-Harris-Mayorkas regime chose to IGNORE our laws.

And he committed crimes in a SANCTUARY CITY before he traveled to Georgia and acted with malice to kill an innocent person. Someone’s child, sister, friend.

His attorney will appeal, of course. And hopefully, he will lose.

 In the meantime, Ibarra will be in prison, beginning his sentence, getting his three daily squares, free medical as needed, exercise, TV and entertainment, at the State of Georgia taxpayers’ expense, courtesy of Biden and his goons.

All while Laken Riley will continue to not live, and her Mom and loved ones will continue to grieve.

Justice will only be served for Laken Riley when we finally stop the illegal and wanton border crossings by those who come here brazenly and commit crimes against our citizens.

So, no justice for Laken Riley, today.

The Hypocrisy of a Certain World Leader

It is a funny thing about international hypocrisy. Every world leader is guilty of it .

 

Vladimir Putin is “indignant” because President Biden authorized the use of ATACMS in Ukraine's war with Russia. And of course, Ukraine immediately used them.

This prompted Putin's response to change his nation's nuclear response policy. Oh the indignity! The horror!

But wait! He is guilty of the same action against Israel by furnishing weapons to Hezbollah. Yes, folks. He is claiming his national status has been violated as he is clandestinely violating Israel’s national interest.

How do we know this? Well, it was reported by Newsmax and The Wall Street Journal that the IDF found caches of Russian weapons in Hezbollah stash sites. In Lebanon.

Russian weapon systems found in Lebanon include not just the modern Kornet, but also other guided anti-tank missiles like Metis, Konkors, Fagots, and Saggers. And they are not old, out of date weapons.

While Russia may have sold them to its ally, Syria, or so Russia is claiming, nevertheless, Hezbollah is now in possession of them.

Putin is trying to say his hands are clean. But, like Biden, they aren’t, Vlad.

So, knock off the nuclear bluster and get busy to resolve the conflict you have with Zelensky. It will show the world you are a diplomat, rather than a bully.

There is a new cop in town and he WILL make you see the light in less than eight weeks.

The Cabinet Is Shaping Up

President-Elect Donald has made the turn at the three-quarter pole, as he begins heading down the home stretch to complete his Cabinet and Staff designations. And once again, the stink of the Swamp is not here.

 

Instead, they are people he has trusted, and will continue to believe in his America First policies:

Mehmet Oz - CMS

Will Sharff - Staff Atty

Brendan Carr - FCC

Sean Duffy - Transportation

Howard Lutnick – Commerce

Still to be decided are the following, which will complete his key positions: Agriculture CIA CDC Education FBI FEMA HUD IRS Labor NIH OMB OSHA Secret Service Surgeon General SSA Treasury and several other important posts.

You will find his previous picks in More Choices To Fix Us and and the previously included links.

Watch for a flurry of activity this week.

Time to Throw Out Corrupt Alvin Bragg

The most polite thing I can call Alvin Bragg, corrupt DA of Manhattan, is Jerkweed. I have tried to restrain my language so my readers are not offended.

 

It is being reported all over that this miserable crook recommended to Judge Merchan that sentencing for the illegal felonies concerning “hush money” that Bragg tried Donald Trump on be postponed until 2029, after Donald Trump completes his term in office. Hopefully, the Judge realizes this is Unconstitutional by any measure and means of interpretation.

And when Attorney General Matt Gaetz is confirmed and sworn in, he will federally indict this ignorant SOB on federal charges for violating Trump and anyone else’s Constitutionally-protected rights under the Fifth, Sixth and Eighth Amendments.

Bragg is brazen to think the people of Manhattan approve of his corruption of the justice system; not only of his illegal lawfare tactics, but also for letting real criminals go free without so much as an indictment or trial. He has announced that he is running again.

Hopefully, Manhattanites will stand up like the citizens of San Francisco and Los Angeles did, and throw him the hell out of office.

And perhaps, Judge Merchan will do the right thing and dismiss this political charade altogether, before the Court of Appeals embarrasses HIM, as it did to Judge Engoron.

It is time for real justice to be served again in NY and all across America.

First Engagement of WWIII?

In February, 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine, I supported the United States response to assist Ukraine to defend itself. At that time, it seemed like the right thing we could do.

 

But by the summer of 2023, after watching our government justify defending Ukraine’s sovereignty and border, while not defending our own, my views began to change.

Then, by the fall, I believed it was a money-grab to launder money, circumventing our own laws in the process. By this time, I believed we needed to stop.

It was announced by the Biden-Harris regime that Biden authorized the use of Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS),deep within Russia. On Sunday, I wrote about it in my commentary entitled, “Are We At DEF-CON 2?” and discussed the ramifications, and Vladimir Putin’s potential responses should they be used.

This morning, CNN and other outlets are reporting on Putin’s initial response. And it isn’t withdrawal. Instead, he has authorized a major change in Russsia's nuclear response policy.

The New York Post and others are reporting that Ukraine has engaged the ATACMS system and destroyed a large Russian weapons facility near the town of Karachev, around 70 miles from its border.

An unidentified defense source told RBC-Ukraine that it was a US-supplied Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS), which lame-duck President Biden recently gave Ukraine permission to use, sparking threats of World War III.

In my commentary, I said, “Biden may have stumbled us, even unwittingly, into World War III or DEF-CON 1. And as much as I hate to say this, Vice President Harris needs to be placed into the role of Acting President so she can order that mistaken order to stand down.

“Before it is too late.

“And Donald Trump needs to be sworn into office much sooner than January 20 in order to negotiate a peaceful end to all ongoing hostilities in that region.”

When I said this, I was told I was over-emphazing, being over-dramatic and overthinking the issues, the problems and the solutions to avoid a catastrophic outcome.

What say you now?

Time To Cut Bait - Again

The Aaron Rodgers Experiment is over. It is time for the New York Jets to admit it. The fans have lost patience with the losing week after week, with no chance for another season to make the playoffs.

 

Their current record is 3 wins and 8 losses. This was not the season the fans signed up for. Nor endured last season,  when Rodgers blew out his Achilles on the third play of his first series of downs. But we stuck by because we thought he would come back.

Maybe, mentally, he did think he was going to make a triumphant return. But, his age is showing. He is NOT the player he was in Green Bay.

But, he is not a total loss, even if the season is. After all, chances of winning six straight games will be  improbable, if not impossible.  One more loss between now and the season's end guarantees another losing one.

Yet, he is under contract until then. So why not use him to coach up Ty Taylor, or trade for a replacement with some experience willing to be coached by a future Hall of Fame QB?

I have been a fan since the team was called the Titans in the old AFL. I am not ready to give up after sixty-three years of loyalty. And one Super Bowl.

But it IS time to overhaul this team. Coaching Staff. General Manager. Players. Including their Hall of Fame quarterback.

 Again.

Time To Ignore Pelosi

According to my Merriam-Webster dictionary app, Emeritus, (Latin, masculine) is defined as a person retired from professional life but permitted to retain as an honorary title the rank of the last office held. And of course, Emerita, is the Latin and feminine alternate use.

 

It is bestowed, usually, by a committee of one's peers as a sign of respect for past performance, while still holding a comparable position in the same place. For example, a university or business may deem the title, Chairman Emeritus, to the soon-to-be retired honoree.

One NEVER bestows thar honor on himself or herself. Except Nancy Pelosi.

As it was recently reported in the Washington Examiner and other sources, the 84-year-old, self-described Speaker-Emerita, filed a statement of candidacy Thursday with the Federal Election Commission after winning a 20th term last week. A spokesperson for Pelosi declined to say whether she is running for reelection, but the paperwork is an early indication of her intentions.

But as the results of the last showed, her time is loooong past. The voters in San Francisco need to see this. And after she single-handedly took down the ENTIRE Democrat machine, by HERSELF, the leadership needs to tell her to sit down and shut the hell up.

This is a revenge-play, pure and simple. She is so deranged that she believes she can stalk Donald Trump for the next four years. But the new breed, Hakeem Jeffries and his leadership team, needs to put her in her place.

 She is like an albatross around any attempt that the Minority Leader wants to accomplish getting bi-partisan support for his agenda. His power will be contained and he will fail as long as she is given any face time in the media.

He was courteous and respectful over the last two years to her. But if he continues to defer to her, he will lose his base.

As for Donald Trump, he IS the President and does not need to concern himself with her. She is but a gnat, trying to annoy him. He only needs to flick her away with his finger, like the pest and parasite she is.

And as for Hakeem, if he doesn’t stop referring to her with her self-styled title, he will NEVER earn the respect of his caucus.
