And There It Is

I fucking KNEW IT!

This would be why the Republicans are screaming bloody murder about the FTX scandal and millions getting laundered back to the Democrats.

Disgraced FTX Founder Donated To Six RINOs Who Voted To Impeach Trump

They are all dirty as far as I can see.

One way or another.

At least we finally get some entertainment and get to watch the DemonRats play defense as a metric buttload of investigations on their dirty dealing get launched.

Grab some popcorn.

A Thought On The Coming Digital Currency From A Reader

I’m going to leave the name out.

Other than that, this s a copy/paste of a message I just got.

A quick thought for you:

     The latest cryptocurrency failure was most likely not an unforeseen accident.    Only the douchebag left standing was ever aware he would be the patsy.

     Now, banks and governments are pushing for digital currency.    In some cases, they are using the current state of crypto usage as an example to change.

Unfortunately, converting everything to electronic means that not only can your own finances be tracked and frozen at will, the VALUE of your money and the country’s can be manipulated at will……     or held hostage.

Electronic anything is looking to be an increasingly less wise choice.

Every

Single 

Minute

Perhaps you could postulate this on your blog.

My thoughts on the matter are pretty straight forward.

They can stick their digital currency straight up their asses.

Total control, subject to the whims of God only knows who and also limited to having electricity and access to the internet?

Yeah.

Fuuuuuuuck, That.

Besides all that, it’s not true Block Chain technology and is very much subject to hackers.

And, ON TOP OF ALL OF THAT….

It’s the same game they played with Fiat Money.

They pull this shit out of thin air at almost zero cost and then tax us on it.

Fuck, That.

We need REAL MONEY, backed by PHYSICAL ASSETTS.

So there ya go.

The Biggest Mystery Surrounding The FTX Crypto Scandal.

In case you have been living under a rock and have not heard of the massive theft of millions and millions of U.S. Taxpayer monies, Investors Monies, the Laundering of said monies from us Taxpayers to Ukraine, who “invested” those monies in FTX Crypto, who’s founder then illegally transferred from people’s (including the Ukranian’s) accounts and then donated back to the Democratic party, who spent $40 MILLION of said dollars on this last election?

Here’s a couple of quick images to help you see what happened.

Now then, back to the headline of this post.

What is the biggest mystery related to this MONSTER of a story?

Why aren’t the Republicans all over every news channel in the world, screaming for investigations, special prosecutors and the paper trail of where every single U.S. dollar of ‘Financial Aid” to Ukraine went?

I mean, I would think that this is a GIMME to hang around the necks of all these DemonRats and would give them the ability to scream to high heaven about the obvious money laundering, illegal campaign contributions, foreign interference, basically the biggest and sharpest stick they have ever had in the history of politics in this country to beat and poke the DemonRats and FJB especially with and all I am hearing is…

CRICKETS.

Could it possibly be, that this subject is a little sensitive to the Republicans too?

That maybe exposing the soft white underbelly of the way some people have been moving money around might subject both parties to some very seriously unwanted scrutiny?

I wouldn’t bet against that.

It’s Gettin’ Plenty Chilly Around Here Already, I wonder How Those EuroPeons Are Doing?

There has been ice on my windshield for the last three days in the mornings.

I was working on a piece of equipment inside the warehouse yesterday with the doors wide open for about an hour and a half and I had to stop twice to go find a heater to warm my hands up, even with those rubber/fabric gloves on.

I couldn’t feel my thumbs anymore.

We have some little disposable pocket warmers I will be loading up on here in the future.

Since the MSM has an agenda and only pits out what the Commie Fucking Bastards in charge want you to hear, I haven’t seen much news about how cold it’s getting across the pond yet but I can guarantee we will be.

Maybe they will start hunting corrupt politicians to keep warm.

In other news, I saw a picture yesterday out of South America where they are pissed off and protesting their corrupt elections. THREE MILLION PEOPLE in one crowd.

I sure hope they had enough Porta Potty’s.

Well, I am going to cut this short, I gotta go start the truck and let it run so I can get even a little heat out of it before I get to work. Even though I replaced the thermostat last year, when it gets cold, that truck won’t get warm until after fifteen minutes of driving. Just about two miles from work it will start getting some heat. This is after I cut some cardboard and covered up a section of the radiator.

I suppose I would rather have it this way than over heating.

It’s always something.

Keep your heads and your asses down, your eyes and ears open.

Another thing I can guarantee you, there is plenty more fuckery coming our way.

Despite What FJB Says, Bezos warns a recession is looming – and Americans should ‘prepare for the worst’

 Bezos warned the US economy is likely to slump in a painful recession.

He advises consumers and businesses to delay purchases and stockpile cash.

Jeff Bezos has warned a US recession is looming, and advised consumers and businesses to stockpile cash in case there’s a devastating downturn.

“The economy does not look great right now,” Amazon‘s billionaire founder and executive chairman told CNN on Saturday.

“Things are slowing down, you’re seeing layoffs in many, many sectors of the economy,” he continued. “The probabilities say if we’re not in a recession right now, we’re likely to be in one very soon.”

Bezos recommended American households delay big-ticket purchases such as new TVs, refrigerators, and cars, given the risk that economic conditions worsen. Similarly, he suggested small-business owners consider holding off on investments in new equipment, and build their cash reserves instead.

The e-commerce pioneer declined to estimate how long the recession could last, but he urged people to be ready for an economic disaster.

“Take as much risk off the table as you can,” he said. “Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.”

It’s not like we aren’t in one already, it’s more like it’s going to be longer, deeper and more painful than most people have been predicting.

As in Depression.

Even if it never reaches that status officially, millions of people in this country are going to get wiped out completely.

It’s already horrible for some.

65% of Americans live Paycheck to Paycheck by official estimates.

That number is low, trust me.

Credit card debt is already Sky High and lot’s of people have already maxxed out their credit limits before this part of the show even gets started.

Personal Debt overall is already at record Highs.

The Fed keeps dumping money into the system and whining about inflation out the other side of their mouth, while knocking interest rates up incrementally, trying to make someone believe they are doing something about the inflation they are causing.

All these interest rate increases are doing is reducing demand, which retailers have been screaming about for three months now.

Christmas is going to be a bloodbath this year for them and sparse for the rest of us.

This trend is going to last at least into Spring and more than likely into Summer.

Those of us who have been watching what’s been going on aren’t the least bit surprised and now we get to watch everyone else get up to speed with economic reality.

That B-17 Mid Air Collision

Such a travesty and unnecessary loss of life and rare equipment.

I found this on a forum but there wasn’t any source given so I couldn’t see if there were more like it and it was the only picture posted,

Not Something You See Everyday Anymore

I was just out in the Danger Zone going through some old coffee cans full of crap that the Old Guy across the street was going to deep six that I couldn’t bear to see when I ran across an old Ball Peen hammer head with the handle broke off.

So I stuck it in the vise to knock the broken part out of the eye.

Low and behold, I see a Flat Bladed screw sticking up out of it.

“Fuckin’ Rednecks” I mutter to myself under my breath.

There just so happened to be an old wood handled screwdriver in the can also so I snatched it up to get the screw out.

Imagine my surprise when this is what came out.

A real wedge screw made just for holding hammer handles on.

I can’t even REMEMBER the last time I saw one of those but it HAS to be at least forty years ago.

This is why I do everything I can not to let that old bastard throw anything away that even REMOTELY looks salvageable.

He still has several buckets full of old crap sitting over there that I am just dying to get my grubby little mitts on, just to see what other little surprises he has stashed away.

I have told him repeatedly not to throw anything away and that I will PAY for anything he doesn’t want anymore.

I still have another coffee can full of crap to go through and I also found another perfectly good wood handled screwdriver.
