The lockdowns changed people. I work in the hospitality industry and I have seen it first hand. I work in a professional town filled with blue and white collar workers but even here I see the crazies. The people who snapped and lost all reason when they got locked up for momths on end. Now they see hotels as the place to go, cut loose, leave the kids behind in the room, and party with friends at the bars until it is time to drag their drunk butts back to the hotel to yell at the front desk. In the twenty years I worked before the lockdowns, I called the police on a guest once. I have lost count of how many times I’ve called the police in the last five years. People have changed, and not for the better.
It’s My Birthday and I’ll…
Well… anyone my age knows where that goes, and I’m not going to.
But I will smile and enjoy my life.
To all those blessed people like me born on this date, Happy Birthday.
Lots of us have been calling to see the Epstein List for years. Now i don’t expect to see big news out of the list. I expect so many redactions that most names are off. What I did not expect is for the bureaucracy to just refuse to hand the documents over to their superiors when ordered to. I mean, I expected them to resist but to be more subtle about it. Just outright refusing is just going to result in more people being fired. Not that I have a problem with that. I am totally fine with mored fired government workers. But I expected them to try to make the targeting solutions for the firings a bit harder to generate. I was wrong.
I said before that there are around three million federal government workers. They were told over the weekend to reply to an e-mail saying five things they did the previous week and that failure to respond would be taken as a resignation. In reaction to being asked to show their work, they screamed and cried and protested the idea that they had to show their work. The response was to say that the e-mail is partially a test to see how many people actually read it and reply to it, because it is doubted that all three million actually exist. Approximately one million employees responded. Interestingly, one million is how many employees the federal government had a century ago. Going back to the size of the federal government of a century ago sounds like a good start to me. Then we can start looking at actually important cuts.
Trump and his people have been doing some good things over the last month. But there is a great deal of resistance from the bureaucrats. People inside the government are impeding many of the policies. One of those is the ICE plan to deport the worst criminal illegal aliens. The rapists. The murderers. The ones currently under arrest for committing crimes.
The resistance in some cities is making certain to release these criminals when ICE tells the city to detain them so they can go out and hurt more Americans. Resistance in the federal government is leaking ICE plans to arrest violent gangs so they can get away and hurt more Americans. Resistance outside the government is DOXING ICE agents and using bullhorns to alert the violent criminals that ICE is coming for them. These are the violent criminal illegal aliens that the vast majority of Americans want deported. But the resistance is fighting to keep them out in the wild so they can continue to hurt us.
Every government official that does this needs to be fired. The problem is that they will get a heroes’ exit, a comfortable job with good pay from an ally, and the next Democrat administration will just hire them back to return to what they were doing. And there will be another Democrat administration.
How do we stop them from doing this again? People who do this need to go to prison for aiding and abetting the enemies of America. The violent, deadly, criminal gangs that are killing Americans every day. If they don’t, they will simply continue. And we must protect our fellow Americans from these criminals. That is the least we must demand of our government and everybody who works for us.
