Raconteur Press is publishing a new anthology in their noir series. Sultry Murder Jazz is aimed at the femme fatales of the business, the leading ladies who are as deadly as they are beautiful. And if you want to check out one of my femme fatales while waiting for it to go live, check out the Goblin Market for my contribution. Joanna of the faeries is possessed of great power and greater control. But someone has stolen something precious from her, and she will have it back, over their dead bodies if possible. Check out the Goblin Market if you dare. You never know what you’ll find within…
DOGE has recommended billions of dollars in cuts. Based on the information they’ve collected, they might be pointing at trillions. Billions of it are outright fraud. Other billions are to Left Wing causes. And they are pointing at firing at least 10s of thousands of government bureaucrats.
The first thing to understand is that I have no sympathy for any bureaucrat who loses their job. Government bureaucrats are a drain on our economy and should be cut back to the absolute minimum capable of running the government. And then maybe cut some more. All they generate is paperwork and I don’t want them. So that is my bias number one.
My second bias is that I don’t like fraud. I want it found and I want it cut. And I want anyone who fraudulently received our tax paper funds to be sued and put in prison if convicted of it. There must be a cost to defrauding the government and the tax dollars the citizens sent to it. It is our money that was stolen.
My third bias is that I don’t want my tax dollars going to support Left Wing causes. Cutting up children. Sending boys to beat up girls in girls sports. Paying the hotel bills of illegal aliens. Gay pride parades. Some things I just don’t want happening at all, and other things I just don’t want my tax dollars paying for.
The problem is, that while some of these things are discretionary funding that the President absolutely can cut at his discretion. But some of these things have been specifically approved by Congress, and according to the current understanding of the law, the President still has to fund those. In the end, the President and DOGE can only cut so much. We need Congress to really get the cuts and to make them permanent. Because otherwise, the next time the people send a Democrat to the White House, and there will be a next time, that President will just restore all this stuff all over again and try to burn the country down again, just like Biden’s administration spent four years doing.
DOGE is great. I love what DOGE is doing. I love the fraud and waste they are finding. But we need Congress to do something too. And I don’t know if they will.
We have learned over the last few months what depths the government bureaucracy and the media that supports it will go to protect its agenda. And that agenda is not to make American greater. They shoveled billions of dollars out the door into whatever projects they could find on the way out. They escalated the war in Ukraine by firing American-operated missiles directly into Russia. They pardoned thousands of criminals, including violent offenders. And that’s after they permanently closed one third of America’s small businesses.
But now Trump’s team is taking over, and they are taking a page from Obama and Biden. Trump’s firing the bureaucrats and replacing them at every opportunity. Trump’s reporting what the government has been spending money on all these years. The thing that surprises me is that they didn’t hide it. They never thought someone would come in and ACTUALLY fire them and run an audit of their spending. So they didn’t hide it. And now the people see what they are doing with our money.
Our money. Our taxes. The things we pay because so they won’t put us in jail. The people who care to look are seeing what they are spending our money on, and the people are disgusted. It’s a narrow majority right now. Terrifyingly narrow. Far too many people are still asleep, but for the first time in my life I can see that just maybe a bare majority of voters see enough to recognize what we are all up against. If we can keep that coalition of sane Democrats and sane Republicans together, if we can keep them standing against the radicals of both parties, then maybe… just maybe…
Do you hear the people sing? I do… And that fills me with both hope and worry. They are singing the songs of angry men, and far too often angry men burn the house down around them. But maybe… just maybe we can roll the inside straight and do what our Founding Fathers did over two centuries ago.
Some of us remember 2021 one way. Others another. Some remember a violent mob breaking into the capital on January 6. Others a peaceful protest that walked through doors held open for them by capital police, and followed police guides inside the capital. Many news agencies reported that violent rioters beat policemen to death with fire extinguishers and flagpoles. Others that only protestors died on January 6, one shot in the neck on camera and three more who “died of natural causes” during altercations with the capitol police that were not caught on camera.
Many Americans never saw the peaceful protest because the main stream news didn’t cover it. Those of us who watch more than just the mainstream news saw the peaceful protest at the same time as we saw the riot.
Four years of Hell followed that day. Impeachment. Lawyers stripped of their licenses. People banned from social media. Pro Life protestors sent to prison. January Sixers in prison. Most of them peaceful protestors. Some of them not even there. Businesses shut down. Americans kicked out of their jobs if they didn’t take an experimental injection.
A senile old man who couldn’t speak without a teleprompter sworn in as President. Abandoning Afghanistan to the Taliban. War in Ukraine. Hamas attacking Israel. Americans dead or captive in foreign lands. Boys beating up girls in girls sports. Children being cut up or drugged up and told they’re different genders. Wide open American borders with hundreds of thousands of women and children lost in the system. Illegal alien gang members killing Americans.
Trump shot on the campaign trail.
Presidential candidates from BOTH major parties joined Trump’s campaign because they couldn’t support what the government was doing. And then for the third general election in a row, the people came out and voted for the outsider again. And this time the polls stayed open. No 3AM vote dumps to flip the result like 2020.
