Don Grogg Was Such a Man

Recently and unfortunately United States Marine, a wonderful person, and my  American Brother Don Grogg passed away.

“Can you see the measure of a man?

Who smiles throughout his pain.

Who always embraced the sunshine

And laughed through all the rain.

I have seen the measure of a man

Whose family hold him dear,

Whose strength was inspirational

And intent always sincere.”

Don Grogg was such a man.

I’ll see you on the other side Marine.

 

This week in Never Never Land the failing of banks was covered by the “indictment” of Donald Trump.

Hillary committed multiple felonies, Biden and his brethren are on tape taking bribes, Obama gave billions to terrorists, and Bush cost us thousands of our best and bravest but it is President Trump who will now face the “justice system”.

This is beyond a Banana Republic.

This move is treasonous yet the only thing heard on the “news shows” is will this help Trump in his reelection attempt in 2024?

Seriously?

Trump’s “indictment” won’t change any of the votes by the dead people who chose Biden.

It won’t change the votes of those who traded their ballot for cash, beer, drugs, or a sandwich.

It won’t change the “mule” system proved beyond a reasonable doubt by Dinesh D’Souza.

The votes out of Philadelphia who “elected” a guy who couldn’t speak, barely dressed himself and is an overt communist will stay the course.

The ballots “cast” in Arizona that elected a woman who nobody liked and hid in her house will continue.

Same with the votes out of Cartelfornia, OreGone, Chicago, Baltimore, New York City, etc.

These “ballots” are already counted.

Whether anyone believes this or not is irrelevant.

Facts don’t change due to ones opinion or propaganda.

The system known as American jurisprudence is gone never to return.

What now?

That really depends on one thing.

Whether or not the powers-that-be can literally keep the lights on and food moving.

I wouldn’t count on it.

The only thing proven so far is without a doubt Fentanyl will continue to travel throughout.

All the way to the end or the new beginning depending upon your view of life.

Glass half full or half empty.

Either way bottoms up before all the glasses break.

As the world turned this week the banking “crisis” was the next thing on the list.

Covid’s over, or at least on the back burner, to be released at later date.

“Climate Change” just isn’t that sexy to the newer generations anymore and they are wary of John Kerry whose jets seems to never be idle.

Yep, this week it was the banks, and because some Liberal money laundering institutions in the Bay Area got caught with their pants down, the entire system was about to fail.

I visited a few branches this week and spoke to different people on different days.

“Anybody pulling all of their money?”

The answer was a resounding no, of course I didn’t deal with banks that harbored money for criminals named Pelosi, Newsom, BLM, and La Raza, collectively known and connected, to the Mexican drug cartels.

You want to see how California elections happen every two years spend a few hours watching Narcos Mexico.

I digress.

After more than a few discussions it appears, aside from the talking heads, no one is too concerned with their bank failing.

Of course those of us with brains know this house of cards has to crash eventually but so far the population seems comfortable with the status quo.

I traveled home and pulled up the internet where everything changed in a New York minute.

Janet Felon Yellen and her cronies announced to the world the banking system is “sound and resilient”.

Go get your money folks.

This is akin to Jim Cramer saying “buy buy buy” and everyone who wants to keep their cash turns and sells sells sells.

It’s comparable to doing the exact opposite of whatever Mark Cuban is frothing while off his Adderall.

Janet Just Stop Yellen is the ultimate jinx, the sure fire time to bet red, when she goes black.

She’s so cursed that if she told you to stay on twenty, with the blackjack dealer showing a six, you better take that card.

Heck, taking a card with 21 would still give you a better chance than listening to Another Planet Janet.

She’s never right.

NEVER.

The only person who has racked up more fails than Yellen is her boss and he doesn’t know where he is half of the time while spending the other half calling a crack addict a genius, his wife his sister and wandering around his daughter’s shower.

Let’s go Brandon, and while Brandon drools his way through the weekend, you may want to load up on a few things, and some corn.

If NostraYellen is at it again a whole bunch of stuff is about to go pop.

Always Shoulder to Shoulder With You

First and foremost, and with sadness, I offer my condolences to my American Brother Mr. Mike Vail whose lovely wife recently passed away.

“Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.”

Always shoulder to shoulder with you.

Jason.

 

This week found banks failing, bailouts occurring and Janet Blind Melon Yellen confirming for the country that Liberal deposits will be backed but banks in the heart of the country are sh*t out of luck.

My only surprise of this entire endeavor is the surprise of the electorate who still believe things will be “okay”.

Really?

Then again I guess it depends upon one’s definition of okay as we know the term sober means something dramatically different in California than in reality.

Sharon Stone and Gavin Newsom both cried and lied about their relationship to Silicon Valley Bank but again no one should be surprised.

This is what Liberals do, I mean come on man, Propane is now the new “green” gas.

Global warming, climate change, California drought, masks save lives, blah blah blah.

This entire charade can be explained simply.

Let’s say you have a friend or relative that doesn’t work and doesn’t have any money. They approach you for a loan to get them out of debt, keep their cell phone on, housing and car from eviction/repossession, etc.

Of course you’ve worked hard, earned your money and saved while your brother-in-law is perpetually collecting some type of government check for doing absolutely nothing.

They beg and plead and finally you give in and loan them a significant amount of cash to get their lives back together.

“Equal opportunity.”

Three months later you try and track them down to retrieve your loan.

The cell phone has been turned off. Their house has been foreclosed upon and you heard their car was towed.

No good deed goes unpunished.

A week later you and your friends head to the lake to relax after a sixty hour work week.

You carpool to save gas, bring homemade food and foldable lawn chairs to chill. No one has a boat or any kind of water vehicle as you and your brethren are smart and continue to put that money in the bank, not aptly named SiliCON of course.

As your group settles in you notice a guy ripping by on a new jet ski and the closer he gets the more you realize it’s your brother-in-law who lost it all and still owes you.

He pulls up, recognizes you and of course without a care in the world asks for a beer.

Stunned you tell him you called but his phone was cancelled.

“Yea but I picked up a free one, one of those Obama phones.”

Getting angrier by the second you ask about the house and car.

“They paid me to leave the house, hilarious because I hadn’t made a payment in almost a year, and the car was towed when it was found in my storage locker that was auctioned for lack of payment. I probably won’t get the car back but I found a lawyer who is going after the storage company for infringing on my rights. He thinks he can get a few thousand out of them.”

Fighting back the urge to throttle him you ask about the jet ski.

“Crazy right? No matter where I go I keep getting credit card offers. I just send em in and the companies keep sending cards with different limits. I used the card to buy the jet ski.”

“How’d you get it here?”

He points to a truck and trailer in parking lot. “It’s my friend’s. Picked it up with Covid money.”

As he bums another beer you ask about the money you loaned him.

“Dude haven’t you heard, banks are failing, we’re in a recession, times are tough. I’m broke.”

Sound far fetched?

It shouldn’t.

I’ve personally witnessed every single thing you just read.

In fact this doesn’t even scratch the surface of how far gone our systems are.

Not broken.

Gone.

Our country isn’t corrupt.

Corruption can be rooted out.

It’s an entirely brand new world as we speak.

What kind of world you ask?

That depends on your preparation and how much more you are willing to accept.

Affirmative Action 2.0 known as Reparations is right around the corner.

At five million a piece banks will no longer exist.

Neither will freedom.

Poems, Prayers, and Promises

Dear Jason,

Recently I read an article written by you years ago. I am amazed at how accurate you’ve been. Can you address what you think our country will look ten years from now?

Thank you for your comment and question and yes I can.

First and foremost ten years from now the country will be dramatically thinner as millions will either stop eating so much, and move around more, or will die from a combination of heart attacks, strokes, diseases and of course medical/government intervention.

We only have to look back over the last twenty-four months to see the powers-that-be at work scaring people into injections that either killed them or continue to do major damage inside their bodies, never mind decades of “take this pill” that only went to covering up symptoms and ignoring the real issue(s).

You can pay now, significant daily exercise and caloric sanity, or pay later, surgeries, chemotherapy, incapacitation and death, but eventually you will pay.

The willingness of too many humans to live in fear because they are obese, something they control, or to live in stupidity, as the government literally told people their skin color made them more susceptible to a “virus” that was leaked from a Chinese lab, proves millions in this country will perish much earlier than they should over the next decade.

Lie to me once, shame on you.

Lie to me twice, I’m an idiot for ever listening to you again.

Ten years from now the fraud of “man made” climate change will be a footnote laughed about in bars as once again PT Barnum continues to be absolutely correct.

Yes, bars will still exist. This new generation loves to drink even though every recent major study is now telling the truth.

Alcohol and marijuana are HORRIBLE for your glands, organs, muscle and joints, basically every cell in your body is weakened by these poisons but these kids gotta get their groove on so play on playa, hate the game not the gamer, you’ll simply hate it for less time than the “sober” Gen Zers.

Not California Sobriety, actual sobriety.

This canard will also be connected to the “mask wearers” as people will stop asking how the “Jews just got on the trains” to be replaced by how insane one had to be to willingly wear a scarlet letter on their face and believe they were protected because a man, Fauci, the poster boy for Adrenochrome, said so, before he said no, before he said yes, before he said to double and triple up.

Of course ten years from now references to Jews and trains and the Scarlet Letter will disappear anyway as history is removed, changed, burned, or lost because very few will read books anymore.

There are dozens of other changes coming, some positive, some not, as different types of “energy” will be created although I doubt in ten years if anything will replace the power and sustainability of the Earth’s gift of natural fuels known as coal, oil, natural gas, wood, etc.

Currencies and banking will be dramatically different as the forty and under crowd overwhelmingly embrace some form of “digital” exchange.

The cell phone has already replaced the mind and without question will go down over the next decade as the most addictive substance in human history, eventually replacing sugar as new creations will tap the drugs in the brain through the eyes rather than the stomach.

Overall it will be different, and not so much, as the more things change the more they stay the same.

What about you Jason?

I’ll be further into the mountains lifting logs, climbing trees, and walking miles on uneven terrain breathing deeply the gift from God known as the forest, soaking up the sun and singing John Denver songs.

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy.

I hope to see many of you there in the decades to come.

Of course that choice is yours.

Invest now or pay later.

I’ve never believed in debt so I’ll happily invest now and as part of my investment I’ll borrow another Denver song to finish this column.

Poems, prayers and promises and things that we believe in.

I believe in Freedom.

I believe in America and I believe in you.

God has done enough, the rest is up to us.

Let’s get to work.

See you next week.

As always I’ll be right here.

Damn That Clam

What can one say about another week in Biden Land?

At least he didn’t fall down any stairs, at least that we know of.

Under the “guidance” of Progressives everything has become more expensive and the world is sadly more dangerous.

The Dems fix for this?

Biden’s toast, and will spend the rest of his time signing bills that only relate to Washington DC, while learning how to say, “Hey Gavin would you like to kiss my sister, I mean my wife, I mean come on man, moonbeam, corn pop, you know the thing. . .everyone else is doing it.”

No, not everyone.

Just the perverted Progressives lead by Paul in his underwear Pelosi or Biden’s kid who of course was caught on tape doing crack, and prostitutes, while banging his dead brother’s wife.

There’s also a secret diary in there somewhere.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Why would you unless of course you are Stephen King who apparently needed to be stoned out of his mind to create his “books”.

Actually I have no problem believing that sicko was high and probably still is.

That is one soulless Liberal loon.

Today’s “Democrat” supports open borders, which allows for more drugs, child molestation and rape through human trafficking.

Today’s “Democrat” supports abortion on demand, which allows them the opportunity to “keep the babies comfortable” while they cut them into pieces to be sold.

Today’s “Democrat” supports forcing the jabbing of needles filled with drugs no one is accountable for, into everyone, even after all the death and destruction, caused by these “vaccinations” that aren’t vaccinations.

Liberal California is going through its second round of a “cyclonic river” also known as drought.

Those with a functioning corpus callosum refer to this time as winter and also recognize that it is impossible to have a drought in a desert, regardless of how many apartments are built or “speed trains” that aren’t.

Any good news?

Well Lori Lightfoot found herself without a chair when the music stopped in Chicago.

Understandably  it was the fault of the white man as she predicted more black on black crime would happen without the leadership of Beetlejuice.

Of course the two who made it through are both Dems, one who says he supports the cops, he doesn’t, and the other who wants all cops cancelled.

Sounds about right.

Just bring in Antifa and BLM and have another Summer of Love.

Instead of covering any of this the media dazzled us with a “sugar replacement” scare, Real Housewives drama, and a clam born the same year as Abraham Lincoln, who two centuries later is now a hated racist supplanted by a Brandon who thinks Barack is nice and clean.

Damn that clam.

Probably a slave owner.

From Another Planet Janet

It is utterly amazing how politicians and their ilk can lie and/or be wrong at every turn and still be considered “experts” by the public or given credit for a “job well done”.

Bill Clinton lied so many times he changed the definition of “sex” or “is” or sex with is. If that wasn’t bad enough his policies are still wreaking havoc on the nation.

George W. Bush  ran against Clinton’s policies, doubled down on the worst ones and then lied us into Iraq costing the lives of thousands of our best and bravest.

Barack Obama called Bush every name in the book, until he won, then said it was time to turn the page, doubled down on Bush’s double down and kept us at war every second of his two terms.

He now hugs George while his wife Michelle kisses Bush seemingly every time they meet.

Three horrific humans, who made every wrong turn possible, and in the middle of it all was Janet Yellen.

Ms. Always Wrong But Never In Doubt.

There are quite a few politicians and talking heads out there who lie, cheat, and steal, Bernie Sanders, Chris Dodd, Barney Frank, but rarely has there ever been someone so wrong all of the time.

Even Paul Krugman, whom I’ver never heard say anything right has never been as wrong as From Another Planet Janet.

She’s on record as missing every major economic catastrophe in the last thirty years.

Not just one mind you.

All of them.

It’s been said that Joe Biden has been on the wrong side of foreign policy issues for the last four decades, and yes he continues to keep that streak alive with every passing day, but he’s got nothing on Yellen.

In the face of rampant “inflation” and the Fed continuing to state rates are going higher, Yellen reportedly chimed in on Friday with “there’s a chance the United States will avoid a recession.”

We have now run through crash landing, soft landing, my personal favorite, no landing at all, and appear to be again climbing the ladder of insanity by repeating the same lines in reverse order.

While the Fed cut rates all the chatter was “Don’t fight the Fed”.

Now that the Fed is raising rates it appears most want to “Fight the Fed”.

This includes Not our Planet Janet who sees smooth sailing ahead.

Yellen has Jim Crameritis and is either Bear stupid or Stearns lying.

Then again it is possible she is both.

Just look at who hired her. . .this time.

For those worried about the markets, gold, or silver never you mind.

Keep stock of clean water, a pantry of the right vitamins, amino acids, and lead.

Electricity is a powerful thing and when the lights go out in Georgia, well, as we all know, that’s when they try to shoot the innocent men.

Drought and a Cyclonic River

As the Biden Administration tried to not fall down at any given moment I gave some thought as to how obtuse someone had to be to vote Democrat.

Don’t get me wrong I don’t find most Republican politicians to be very bright but the depth of intellectual depravity one must have to keep voting Democrat is stunning.

The “science” has finally been released and as those of us with a pulse already knew the combustion engine vehicle is cheaper to make and “better for the environment”.

Will Democrats change their ways and admit this entire “electric car” disaster has been a multi-trillion dollar loss that the American taxpayer has had to burden?

Absolutely not, never mind the fact that the most polluted cities in America, are run by Democrats.

Let’s throw a generator in the trunk right next to these mini nuclear reactors known as batteries and really watch the “science” explode.

The “science” is also out, in California specifically, on the word “drought”.

I won’t bother with Webster because this is too easy.

Drought means it hasn’t rained in a very long time but according to Gavin Newsom, California is still in a drought because the water wasn’t “captured”.

I know some Dems are reading this right now so let me sloooooow waaaaaay downnnnn.

Newsom states the “science” of the California drought must continue because he and his cronies didn’t build enough reservoirs and/or continue to flush water into the ocean.

So, regardless of “record rain” or a “cyclonic river” the Golden State is still in a drought because of the lack of capture and that lack of capture is caused by global warming, err, climate change.

I once had a conversation with a Dem who repeated the lie of climate change/Cali drought.

I asked them why they thought it would ever rain in the DESERT, as a good portion of California is labeled.

Building low income housing, 7-Elevens, and giving out free needles to the homeless isn’t going to change that.

It’s SAND! It’s always going to be SAND!!!

Tell em Sam Kinison.

Of course these are the same folks who could be found triple vaxxed, quadruple boosted, their entire bodies hand sanitized, wearing the same two masks crammed between their seats for a month, sitting by themselves in their cars idling for hours in an attempt to get a coffee that had been touched, at a minimum by three strangers, who on average used the bathroom at least twice per shift.

For the coup de grace they did all of this sitting in the rain bitching and moaning about a drought caused by human consumption.

Ten cents for a “recyclable” bag that no one could reuse and paper straws for all ought to fix it.

Hang in there Dems.

AOC is almost old enough to be President and if she can’t save you in the next seven years then you can always sneak Greta through the border or better yet just float her over in a balloon.

Just make sure it’s Chinese and not some American hobbyist.

The Trewth

One of the more wonderful things about being an American is meeting those who love this country.

Who believe in working hard, in giving to others and the Truth.

Who believe nothing is more important than Freedom.

Nothing.

One of the opportunities given by the Internet is to reach into homes with my heart and the hearts in those homes reaching back.

This opportunity has given me hope, camaraderie, laughter and joy as I and my fellow Americans joined across this great nation, in an attempt to show a better way.

Along that way I discovered one Yvonne Trew.

Although I never had the chance to meet Yvonne in person, my loss indeed, each Sunday without fail she graced my life with her presence as she added a comment and a share to whatever I deemed necessary to scribe.

Ms. Trew, ever a positive light used the Internet via her facebook page to welcome the gift of each new day with a “Happy Sunday or Monday,” “Good morning everyone” “The coffee is on” and always finished with “Hugs and Love to You.”

Other items were added along the way, always filled with the truth, and many times humor, as I personally laughed out loud at one meme she entered that stated, “Judge me when you are perfect, until then keep your mouth shut!”

Also through the Internet I met two of her grown children, Benjamin and Kathryn, both freedom loving Americans, and it was quite clear Yvonne had done a wonderful job as a mother.

It is very rare that I am at a loss for words, but they all feel inadequate in my search to show my respect, to give my love to a beloved woman who sadly passed away so I will borrow from some of her friends who said it so perfectly.

“She always made me feel like family. Sweet memories of you will keep us smiling.”

“Your sweet presence will be missed. I pray God’s comfort for all mourning your loss.”

“Coffee will never be the same again.”

“She brightened my mornings with her posts. She was just so lovely. Wish I could have met her in person.”

I wish I could have too.

To my wonderful, intelligent and at times feisty American Sister I say thank you, I miss you and congratulations to a life well lived.

I’ll see you on the other side.

In the meantime,

“Happy Sunday and Good morning everyone, the coffee is on.”

“Hugs and Love to you.”

Oh What a World

The search for a topic this week lead me down a road I rarely arrive.

I just didn’t feel like writing.

I’m tired of covering the same stupidity, the same insanity, the same hypocrisy.

It’s become mind numbingly boring.

Then it hit me.

I’ll write from the Liberal perspective where everything is great because the world will end in less than ten years.

Where Joe Biden has saved the planet from Donald Trump.

Where masks cure every virus, disease, and even broken bones.

What a world it must be to believe in “electric” cars, that genders matter so much they don’t, and that the only thing more important than skin color is being lesbian or gay or bi or trans and let us not forget “queer”.

What a world indeed!

Where black on black crime continues in cities lead by black politicians yet somehow it’s the fault of the 19th century white man or the 1980’s CIA.

In fact it is such the fault of the krackers San Francisco wants to give every “black” five million dollars.

My only question here is what about Oakland?

Let us continue.

Where eggs are to blame for heart attacks and strokes in young people even though the only thing these youngsters have in common is the jab.

Where Chinese balloons can hover over America but it’s okay because the Big Guy says so.

Where sanctuary cities and states offer millions of dollars to criminal foreign nationals and then throw temper tantrums when they arrive.

Where Hunter Biden is considered an artist and Stephen Colbert a comedian.

Where rent doesn’t have to be paid, graffiti never stops and trash never removed.

Where fentanyl is everywhere and available right along with government provided “clean needles”.

Where ten cents for plastic grocery bags is saving the planet, the “Biden economic success story” has rampant inflation and empty shelves everywhere in America, and molesting children on tape is considered good ol Joe.

Where “cyclonic floods” also bring about more drought.

Where the only person killed during an “insurrection” was an unarmed white woman shot to death by a government agent who was then given an award.

Where a man behind bars and on twenty-four hour watch hung himself as the cameras no longer worked and both “guards” took naps.

Where the Feds admit the boosters are causing harm at the same time Pharma releases new boosters.

Where debt is irrelevant and trillion dollar coins can be minted to make all our problems disappear.

Where the soft landing has occurred and the Carter/Obama/Biden New Normal has finally arrived.

Where their next trick will be to agree on a debt ceiling raise to borrow more money because borrowing is always the key to solvency.

Oh to be a liberal where walking around with a mask made by Chinese children is the only thing needed to safely make it to Starbucks and Krispy Kreme.

I cannot wait for the next “balloon” to invade United States air space.

Hopefully it will be captured by that wonderful American entity known as Tik Tok.

Unicorns and Rainbows

It is an interesting time to be alive and it definitely beats the alternative.

Well, probably.

Over the week as I trimmed trees, cut and stacked firewood and enjoyed the sun I took the opportunity to listen to a few podcasts.

In one the guest speaker came off as a pompous know it all who opined about the end of the world as we know it and the beginning of a new time. Nothing he said was original to me but because his manner of speaking was clear and concise, and he moved through multiple topics without “ums” and “likes,” it was a mostly enjoyable listen even though the overriding theme was extreme disaster.

He also was a “greenie” who thought “climate science” was “settled fact” and that batteries were a waste of time and resources.

Science is never settled and I like batteries in areas where they make sense.

Using them to start a car is great.

Counting on them to power anything consistently beyond a Vespa is silly, especially in the winter.

A conundrum rolled into an enigma to say the least never mind he voted for Biden yet stated that Trump was good for our relationship with Mexico because The Donald liked Mexicans.

I almost dropped my chainsaw when I heard that one.

It appears that to be a Liberal one must live highly medicated on pot, Ozempic, and an incredible amount of hallucinogenics.

On a different show I listened to a speaker on the subject of happiness, who probably meant well and was also easy to listen to grammatically, but his lack of reality left him without credibility as he stated his purchase of a Tesla brought him happiness because he did not want to burn any more fossil fuels.

Apparently electricity is delivered on a unicorn via a rainbow.

Of course this was dramatically better than tuning into mainstream media who spent their time explaining that Pfizer isn’t doing anything wrong no matter what a Pfizer employee actually said or attempting to explain racism and white privilege while “five cops beat an African-American man to death.”

Piggybacking this dumpster fire of “news” was the video expose of Paul Pelosi and pal, who appeared hammered and was then actually hammered by his special friend.

Why these two incidents were released at the same time is definitely up for speculation, and I’m sure millions will, as well as why there was commentary about the “size of Nancy’s cans.”

Unsurprisingly both Lebron and Oprah had nothing to say about the new “Rodney King”.

Of course they are always silent in the face of “black on black crime” unlike Corn Hole Biden who had they let him speak probably would’ve dazzled us with something like, “Corn Pop probably didn’t vote for me which pancakes moon pie sweet tea, God bless you stand up and take a bow Chuck, my wife’s my sister, rub my hairy legs and Hunter is the smartest person I know.”

Then again I’m probably being too harsh on the Big Guy.

We all know his thoughts were based around how nice it was to see a black man who was “clean and articulate”.

Say it isn’t so Joe.

I’m heading back into the trees.

See you next week.

Let’s go Brandon.
