Coffee Adventures

Posted In: Diaries

Raconteur Press is coming out with a new Moggie Noir anthology this week, once again focusing on the classy ladies and cats that change all of our worlds. I happen to have written stories about a classy lady who changed the world of Captain William Carter. Joanna promises to brew him the best cup of coffee he’s ever tasted if he just does one simple thing for her. Of course it all turns out to not be as simple as any of them thought. Check out Coffee Adventures for that and many other exciting tales.

Mass Migration

by Medron Pryde on April 30, 2025 at 12:01 am
Posted In: Diaries

The United States had a saying in the 1800s. Go West Young Man. Many historians consider it part of the movement that said the United States had a Manifest Destiny to spread the ideas of Republicanism and Christianity across the continent. It started with the Louisiana Purchase from France that doubled the size of the country all the way to the Mississippi River and opened up new opportunities of cheap land for brave young men trapped in the crowded, expensive, and already built-up Colonies on the Eastern Seaboard.

The Great American Migration built St. Louis into a prosperous center of the immigration pipeline, and hundreds of thousands of strong young men and women moved west to get their piece of the American Dream. Some land, a cow, and a home of their own, be it ever so humble. Tens of thousands died of disease or fighting Indians in Oklahoma, Minnesota, Texas and many other lands, but when only one in ten of a mass migration die, that leaves the other nine to settle the land. They built America into a continental powerhouse with a steadily expanding industrial base that formed the core of the America we know today. We built this land through the simple expedient of organized mass migration.

100 Days

by Medron Pryde on April 29, 2025 at 12:01 am

It’s been 100 days since Trump became president, and oh how different the world looks. And how similar.

Trump closed the border against illegal immigration, proving that we did not need a new law to close the border as the Biden administration told all of us. All we needed was an administration who wanted to close the border and stop illegal immigration. What a shocker.

Trump has begun deportation of illegal aliens, starting with tens of thousands of the worst of the worst. The members of foreign gangs and foreign terrorist organizations. There are tens of millions of them out there, so I consider that a good start.

The Democrats and the main stream media, but I repeat myself, have demanded that the illegal aliens they spent four years shoveling into America be released by the big meany Trump. Democrat judges have arisen to the fight, helping illegal aliens escape through any means necessary. One even housed an illegal alien gang member in his own home to keep him away from ICE. Two judges have been arrested, which I consider a good start.

DOGE found over a hundred billion dollars in fraud or waste, which I consider a good start. The Democrats and the media, but I repeat myself, screamed at the mere idea of cutting that fraud, and some judges have ordered Trump to continue committing the fraud or waste in question.

Trump has started doing his favorite thing. Telling government employees “You’re Fired” by the thousands. There are about three million of them out there, so I think that’s a good start. The Democrats and the media have screamed that not one federal employee should lose their job, and some judges have ordered him to return employees who have promised to fight their boss back to their jobs so they can continue to fight against their boss.

And for his crimes of doing what he promised to do in the election, Democrats have promised to Impeach Trump again the first chance they get. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

I do consider the first 100 days a good start, despite the setbacks. I hope to see Trump complete more of his campaign promises as I consider them to be good for America.

Trump – The Presidency

by Medron Pryde on April 28, 2025 at 12:01 am

On this week’s episode of Trump – The Presidency, Season Two…JD Vance visits the Pope and Francis dies shortly thereafter. Hedging their bets, people insist he visit the set of The View as soon as possible.

Four Democrats go to El Salvador to visit the deported criminal there, proving once more they are the party committed to wasting taxpayer dollars.

Dick Durbin claims that forty-years in Congress is enough, while the rest of the nation feels it’s twenty years too many.

President Trump announces he’s donating two flag poles for the White House, which leads the progressives to burn flags instead of Tesla’s. Later he announces that he’d like to give new mothers five-thousand dollars which fully committed the Democrats to proclaim that motherhood is racist.

In an unforeseen plot twist, Scott Bessent, the Secretary of the Treasury, goes to the IMF and tells them how entirely fouled up they are in a press conference that was eerily similar to Shakespeare’s King Henry V’s Agincourt speech. His referring to the IMF and World Bank as using, “vapid, buzzword-centric marketing” makes the testicles/ovaries of the IMF members shrivel in fear.

In a stunning pair of surprises near the end of this week’s episode; two judges were arrested for acts involving protecting criminals. Trump’s foes immediately forget their “Poor Maryland Father” narrative and label him as Hitler Version 2.0, even though he had nothing to do with their crimes or their arrests. Trump’s supporters referred to the arrests as, “A good start…more please.”

Will the new narrative gain ground or will Trump convince Zenensky and Putin to both stop being little bitches and stop trying to kill each another, forcing the Dems to declare peace as an alt-right scheme? To find out, tune in next week, same MAGA time, same MAGA channel.

Mass Migration

by Medron Pryde on April 27, 2025 at 12:01 am

When the Europeans first came to the Central Americas, they brought with them centuries of the worst germs and plagues known to man in their blood. Multiple pandemics flew up and down the Americas a few hundred years ago, each one wiping out a quarter or half of the local populations. Estimates suggest that the populations of the Americas were in the millions to tens of millions when the plagues began. That is how many died in the end.

By the time settlers arrived in New England, scattered Indian tribes numbering in the thousands or tens of thousands were all that was left of those who tended and gardened the ruins of the civilization their fathers, grandfathers, or great grandfathers remembered. The religious exiles that would later create the United States of America found a new-to-them Promised Land of immense riches and very few Indians to defend it all. That made our colonization of the Americas one of the more successful mass migrations in known history.
