Disney Grandson Languishes in the “Unhappiest Place on Earth”

by
by Downey Brand LLP

While Disneyland may be the “Happiest Place on Earth,” a California probate court may be the opposite for a Disney heir, mused the U.S. Court of Appeals in Lund v. Cowan (9th Cir. 2021) ___ F.3d ___. Bradford Lund, a 50 year-old grandson of Walt Disney, sued the probate judge who rejected a settlement agreement that would have allowed him to access his approximately $200 million inheritance, and the federal appellate court affirmed the dismissal of the suit.

The real drama has played out in the probate department of the Los Angeles County Superior Court. Litigation there has spanned 15 years with no FASTPASS or end in sight. Bradford’s story is unlike any Disney movie we have seen, but equally entertaining.  (Click to continue)

Teachers union sues Rhode Island mom over critical race theory public records requests, cites teacher privacy

by

By Sam Dorman | Fox News

The Rhode Island branch of a major teachers union is suing to block a school district from fulfilling a mother’s public records requests, citing the sheer volume of requests and concerns about teacher privacy.

The case revolves around a mom, Nicole Solas, who caught national attention for her quest to address critical race theory (CRT) in her child’s district. School board members previously considered suing Solas over her copious records requests – at least 200 – but declined prior to the recent lawsuit.

“We are asking the Court to conduct a balancing test to determine whether our members’ privacy rights outweigh the public interest,” said Jennifer Azevedo, who serves as deputy director of the National Education Association Rhode Island (NEARI). “We believe they do, and those records should either not be disclosed or should be redacted accordingly.”

In a filing dated Thursday, NEARI requested a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction from the state’s superior court. Both Solas and employees of the school district are named as defendants.

Solas fired back, telling Fox News, “You cannot be employed by the state and also demand immunity from public scrutiny. That’s not how open government works in America. Academic transparency is not a collective bargaining negotiation. It’s a parental right.”

NEARI’s verified complaint, which was filed Monday, states: “Given the circumstances of the requests, it is likely that any teachers who are identifiable and have engaged in discussions about things like critical race theory will then be the subject of teacher harassment by national conservative groups opposed to critical race theory.”

Cornell law professor William Jacobson also argued that “[t]his lawsuit makes little sense on its face. The unions purport to be protecting their members non-public documents and  information, but the public records law only applies to “public records“ as defined under the statute.”

The filing from Monday, however, seeks for the court to examine certain categories of documents which are “potentially public records” under the Access to Public Records Act.

It adds that if records aren’t determined to constitute a “clearly unwarranted invasion of privacy,” they should be disclosed with redactions of personally identifiable information or “information which may lead to the identity of such teachers.”

The lawsuit reflected an ongoing battle playing out across the country where frustrated parents are demanding answers from education officials.

Both the NEA and American Federation of Teachers (AFT) have opposed efforts to limit CRT and its related ideas in school. NEA previously approved a resolution conveying its desire to fight “anti-CRT rhetoric.”

Another prompted Senate Republicans’ scrutiny by declaring that the NEA would “research the organizations attacking educators doing anti-racist work and/or use the research already done and put together a list of resources and recommendations for state affiliates, locals, and individual educators to utilize when they are attacked.”

I Don’t Care

by

By Carrie K. Hutchens

I don’t care if people accuse me of being pro-cancel culture. It is, after all, the least of what I have been called over the past few years by the gaslighters and indoctrinated puppets that fail to use the brains God gave them, as a tool to process and conclude based on reality, rather then “as told to.”

I used to willingly watch various shows on Fox News, such as “The Five,”       “Outnumbered” and “Greg Gutfeld.” Now I only willingly watch Tucker and Greg’s show, if I watch anything at all.       Why? Because I do not like liars. I do not care to listen to them or watch their stupid facial features meant to call the other person’s comments untrue. Or, how about the Richard Fowler types that take over the segment with their interrupting, talking over everyone and just downright being rude? I don’t need it.

I have often said – and definitely mean – that it is one thing to have differing opinions presented and quite another to allow lies to be spouted and unchecked by people who insist on finishing their incorrect and untrue comments. And there you have it… this is why I won’t watch my once favorite shows on Fox News. Too many Libs get by with repeating over and over and over – things that aren’t true, especially about, but not limited to, Trump and/or his supporters.

I’m not over-protective of President Trump. I have no hesitation to call him out, if he has done or said something wrong.       However, as we all know (or at least those of us that think with our own brains), Trump is always blamed for everything and then some by the MSM & other Trump haters, even when he hadn’t a thing to do with it or NEVER SAID WHAT THEY SAY HE SAID.

I can’t stand liars and do not associate with them in real time. Why would I waste my time in front of a television listening to them and watching those eye-rolls, smirks and shaking heads? I wouldn’t and I don’t and I won’t.

It’s one thing for Fox News, for example, to have Libs or anti-Trumpers on to provide the opposing view-point, but quite another to allow distortions that amount to lies. Fox News should have a rule that only the truth is allowed and if caught lying – the person will be suspended, until they can control their urge to lie about those on the other side of the aisle, including President Trump.

If Libs think my opinion makes me a hypocrite and part of the “cancel culture” – so be it! I don’t care. As a matter of fact, I’ll proudly claim to be a member of the “Cancel Lies & Propaganda Culture!” It is, after all, a culture worth developing and being a part of!

Unbelievable: The Stamp of Approval for Lying & Cheating

by

By Carrie K. Hutchens

It’s difficult for me to understand how people who fight for justice for themselves or others, can then find it acceptable for someone else to be treated unjustly and lied about?  But that is what I see too often transpiring.

In my lifetime, I’ve spent a great deal of energy fighting for others, especially underdogs that seemed to be standing alone against the powerful or at least more powerful than they.  Sometimes I was directly involved in the cases and other times, I was merely someone striving to get the truth out and the attention of others, who were in a position to fight the particular injustice. 

No matter my part, big or small, I was all in on fighting against whatever the injustice was.

I’ve seen innocent people look totally guilty.  Likewise, I have seen guilty people look totally innocent.  Appearance can be absolutely deceiving and often are – especially in today’s insane world, where deceit is accepted if applied to those not agreeing or somehow in the way.  You know, like President Trump.  The man who has often been in the way of what so many have wanted.

I don’t know how many times I have heard people say that Trump lied about things that he did not lie about.  It was a lie that he lied.  In short, numerous times, I have asked people to name the lies they are accusing President Trump of.  Each time, there has either been a response of silence or an allegation of something not true or something he said or did that was taken out of context to give the appearance of something not true.

Yet, some don’t care.

Some don’t care the President has been lied about or treated unfairly because they don’t like him.  The latter supposedly makes it okay.  But it doesn’t.

No one should be treated unfairly or lied about.  If it is wrong – it is wrong no matter who does it or who it is done to.  Liking the person or being the person is, or should be, irrelevant if we truly believe in justice for anyone, including self.

In addition to some thinking it is okay to lie about Trump – it’s amazing how so many are saying there isn’t any evidence to support the Trump Team’s claims without their own evidence that there is no evidence.  These people simply throw their allegations out there – without evidence – with the expectation that their word is all that is necessary.  In a sense, they are right.

Many people only hear news from media that is hostile to President Trump.  Media that doesn’t share much, if anything, that is ever positive involving him.  Therefore, there are many things those viewers aren’t aware of.  As a result, too many too often get dug in and ready to believe anything bad said about Trump and refuse to listen to anything that challenges those beliefs.

I had some contacts that I thought the world of.  I would have sworn that their integrity was beyond reproach and nothing could ever shake it.  Then came Trump and the hatred of him.  Sadly, I watched some become everything I believed they could never be – liars.

Then there are those people, who were treated wrongly, who now seem to think being treated wrongly is wrong, unless it is President Trump, of course.  Somehow, in their minds, he is fair game because they have believed all the lies about him and failed to see all he has done for them.  They just believe what they were fed, while fighting to get the courts and supporters to not believe all the non-truths involved in their case or the case of someone they were fighting for.

Amazing.

Court decisions are not always right or fair.

Investigations are not always thorough, whether by intent or by obstacles blocking those in pursuit of the truth.

Truth assertion is claimed by propaganda artists and truth-tellers alike.

Not all is as it seems.

Major media is not necessarily your friend providing truthful information.  Sometimes… some of them… are nothing more than gaslighters leading you to where they, and their masters, wish you to be, so you can be controlled and think what they want you to think, as obviously they have done with many.

This election should concern us.

Perhaps you were for Joe Biden, but do you really want him to win if he has only won by lying and cheating by any?  If your answer is yes, will you feel it is okay for the next person to win that way as well – especially if it is not a person you are for?  Or, is it only okay if it is done to Trump and your person always wins?

Biden may have won.  How do we know though, as things have and are transpiring?  How can we trust an election that has had Trump votes given to Biden and all the other irregularities?  Shouldn’t we want our elections to be on the up and up?  Shouldn’t we want to know?  Shouldn’t we want to be assured we were right and our vote was, and always is, counted accurately?

 Yes, this election, and many other things, should concern us all.

We should never give the stamp of approval for lying and cheating no matter who it is done to or who it is done by.  Truth and justice only exists when we demand truth and justice for all – including those we don’t even particularly like.  And, yes, that includes President Trump.

I HATE GASLIGHTERS & THEIR LITTLE INDOCTRINATED PUPPETS

by

Still image from – “Hello Baltimore by Lloyd Marcus the Unhyphenated American” video – 2015

By Carrie K. Hutchens

I’ve met some gaslighters throughout my life-time, but never in the abundance found in present day society.  It’s overwhelming.  It’s maddening.  It’s enough to make a pacifist go ballistic and not so gently put some faces (along with the bodies) in a corner for a major forced time-out.

Oh, and those little indoctrinated puppets that think they are so very smart and righteous make a polite person want to scream all those words we thought we would never use. 

Who raised those brats who have no impulse control and think they have some special right to kick people in the head (attempted murder in my book) and not have anyone fight back?  Who taught them that it was pure and good to run in packs in search of a helpless victim to viciously beat, stomp and kick without mercy?

The feral monsters roaming the streets looking for prey have lost their way – if ever they had it to begin with.  They are nothing more than a plague the masters have released upon society to cause a chaos they blame on the opposition… a chaos they claim they can save us from.

It’s all a game.

A dirty game.

A game only the dishonest and vicious would instigate.

The masters have no conscience, as they seek power and more power and even that isn’t enough – they must have the ultimate power to control all people and all things at all times.

The indoctrinated have no clue.

It’s said quite frequently that Trump supporters are a cult, which would suggest that they mindlessly follow him with no thought of their own.   How wrong those are who say it and those who believe it.  Trump supporters are not of “one mind” or “one thought” and definitely not into “talking points” such as seen on MSM, where it seems everyone is following the same script hour after hour, day after day.

Nope!  You aren’t going to see Trump supporters parroting talking points like good little puppets.  They think and talk for themselves – obviously so.

I’ve never seen or heard of Trump supporters stopping traffic, pulling someone out of the vehicle, beating the heck out of them and kicking the person in the head for the heck of it, but I have seen the feral monsters of the Left do so and so have you, if you follow the chaos on the internet.

All that violence is from the Left… allowed by the Left… and protected by the Left.

(Who encourages them… allows them to do… and bails them out after they have?)

MSM spews the lie that the rioters are the victims (or champions of same) and we are all to blame, and therefore, by insinuation, if not direct claim, that we deserve the violence, destruction, injury and even death at the hands of these so-called victims, aka champions.

BS

Yes, that is right.

I call BS, as you should.

I call it as I should, as you should, as every normal and law-abiding person should.

The feral monsters are obviously physically dangerous and meant to terrify the population.  There seems to be no reasoning with them, once they have their sights on a chosen victim.

Then there are the indoctrinated puppets that get on Twitter, for example, and proclaim they are all knowledgeable and everyone else that doesn’t agree with them are ignorant racist Trump-supporting Walmart shoppers who probably live in trailers and don’t have degrees, because after all, that is what they are told the opposition either is or to accuse them of that anyways.  Alinsky tactics come to mind, as well they should.

The latter indoctrinated puppets are quite dangerous in their own way.

While the feral monsters are meant to gain power and conquer the population by fear, the latter indoctrinated puppets are used for mind control, so to speak.

They sound smart and in control.

They lie.

They say lies well.

They toy with peoples’ minds.

They are gaslighters-in-waiting.

They may not even have a clue they were gaslighted.

Maybe they do.

What they don’t do is refer to history or even current events about how this story has played out elsewhere and will play out here, if they win the game.

They “think” they will be the winners.

Wrong!

They are only tools… only a means.  They are/were never meant to be anything more, should the Left win this battle of the souls.  After all, there are only a few slots at the top of the power grab and only a select few were ever intended to occupy them.

Think a puppet would be given one of those precious slots?

I hate gaslighters and indoctrinated puppets.

(Did I say that already?)

Both try to convince you truth is a lie and lie is a truth.

One is trying to redefine truth into what they say it is for the purpose of taking control.  The other is a fool that has fallen for all the gaslighting and is nothing more than a tool to be tossed aside, should the gaslighter win the game.

The irony…

Only a few slots exist in a realm of dictatorship.

(Did I say that already?)

Not all gaslighters get a slot either, but I guess they haven’t figured that out yet.

I enjoy knowing that I am far smarter than the puppet, since I think for myself, rather than think what someone feeds me to think.

I enjoy being smarter than a gaslighter as well.  I don’t need to make others think they are crazy, so I can win by forcing wrongful thoughts and illusions upon them.

I enjoy not having to chase people down and beat them to death, or near death, for the lack of impulse control and whatever else creates such feral monsters that I am not.

I hate gaslighters and indoctrinated puppets.

Oh yes, I do.

I’m ready for sanity and law and order to return and put them out of business.

It’s time.

The Concept: In the Midst of Orwellian Madness

by

I never thought I would see it, but here we are.  The concept is no longer merely works of fiction.  We are living a present day version of George Orwell’s 1984 and Animal Farm combined.  Who would have thought so many “modern” people could be so very indoctrinated as to fall for the elite’s and elite wannabee’s spiel of lies? 

We’re watching riots.  There is no misunderstanding of what they are.  Buildings and cars are being destroyed and burned.  Citizens and police officers alike are being viciously attacked.  Yet, a multitude of Democrats call it peaceful protesting and suggest the Republicans, Bill Barr and whomever else is trying to prevent people’s right to protest.

Are these Democrats that delusional or do they think we are that stupid and they will be able to convince the rest of us that the lie is the truth and the truth is the lie?

Watching and listening to a portion of the Judicial Committee hearing hosting Attorney General Bill Barr on Tuesday, July 28, 2020, I not only wanted to scream at the power seekers – I did scream at them.  I screamed at them for slinging false allegations and then refusing to give the attorney general an opportunity to respond.  Their behavior was childish, hateful, deceitful and worse – a conspiracy in motion.

I’d say there is no excuse for the behavior of the Democrats on that committee, but there is a reason.  They are trying to grab power not rightfully theirs.  They are attempting to lie their way into that power not earned nor freely given them.  And… obviously… they will try to destroy anyone and anything in the way of that power grab.  That, or they are simply mentally ill and so delusional that they cannot ascertain the difference between their fictional concept floating around in their defective brains & the reality actually transpiring before them.  Either way – they are in the wrong.

Someone in the right need not lie nor deceive to prove their allegation or position is true.  They present facts and give reason why their position should be the accepted one.

These Democrats and Republicans of ill-intent, on the other hand, tend to deceive and deceive some more!

It’s pathetic!

It’s definitely unbelievable that so many regular people are falling for the radical lib lies.  How can that be? Simply use the brain without bias and one should be able to see what has been transpiring.  It’s right there in plain sight.  Unless one is only watching hate-Trump networks and like print material, where only half-truths (full lies) are told and the spin leaves out important information, while at the minimum offering spin, spin, spin.

Friendly reminder:  Protests do not involve looting, destruction and attacks on police and others.  That is RIOTING and criminal behavior.

Back to the liberal narrative…

A journalist I had admired, and liked as a person as well, surprised me a few months ago.  She suggested that President Trump had mocked Serge Kovaleski disability, something that had been debunked years ago.  Being good at her job – she should have known that – or did she and said it anyway to put down Trump?  I don’t know.  I’ll probably never know.  However, I did tweet her about it and sent along a video as a reminder.

To this day, there are people who don’t like Trump because they believe he mocked the reporter’s disability.  As a result, these people despise the president and see (judge) everything he says as does based on the person they believe him to be – not the person he is.  In short, they are against anything he says or does prior to him saying or doing it.

If anyone needs a reminder…

Serge’s disability does not involve flailing.  He has arthrogryposis.

The flailing that Trump did is what he has done for years in reference to people being flustered or frustrated.  He did it in reference to Ted Cruz, too.  Did anyone accuse the president of mocking his disability?  Oh!  That’s right.  Senator Cruz doesn’t have a disability.

What about the lie that President Trump didn’t disavow David Duke, though he has repeatedly done so over the years.  It’s a lie, but it was repeatedly said and to this day, even with video proof out there that it is a lie – there are people who still believe that Trump is pals with Duke.

What about the lie that President Trump said there were good people on both sides and that he was referring to the KKK and White Nationalist?  No!  He was talking about the people that came to protest for and against keeping the statue.  That should have been obvious to anyone actually listening to what he was saying – yet… many are repeating the lie (some on purpose & some unknowingly) and other people are hating Trump and calling him a racist because of the lie – not because he is.

What I do love is when people state for fact that Trump is a liar and lies all the time, yet, when asked, to name the lies – they can’t do it.  Why?  Because most of the people I’ve run into that are making the claim have no idea what the alleged lies are.  They are merely parroting what they have heard or been told to say.

Turns out that one of our fine outlets (sarcasm) was allegedly counting what they considered a lie, as a separate lie every time the president stated it.  In other words, if an economist stated a five dollar bill was worth $5 and Trump repeated it, but their expert said it was worth 5 cents – then, rather than considering two experts were disagreeing – they claimed Trump lied.  And, if he repeated that expert’s claim 100 times, then it was claimed he lied 100 times.

Difference of opinion is another area. 

If Trump has a different opinion than the fine outlet (sarcasm) – he lied.  He’s not allowed not to agree, it would seem.

And then there are the exaggerations merely to make a point.  They are called hyperbole.  You know, statements not meant to be taken literally.  Like when I say, “As I’ve said a millions times” – it’s understood that I really didn’t say whatever a million times, but I’ve said it lots – maybe half a million?    Yet, when President Trump does likewise – it’s called a lie by the fine outlet (sarcasm).

You may wonder what all this has to do with the riots, indoctrination, Animal Farm, 1984, and the Judicial Committee hearing with Bill Barr.

Everything.

Lies mold perceptions.

Perceptions define reception.

Reception defines reaction.

In short, if you believe one man is truthful and the other is a liar, you will most likely believe the one you consider truthful over the one you consider a liar, right?  But what if your truthful man is mistakenly wrong or actually lying?  What if you are blowing off the man who is actually telling you the truth, because you believe him to be a liar?

That’s the point. 

When one let’s perceptions rule the roost, so to speak, rather than consider anything contrary to what they have been told and encouraged to believe – they have allowed bias to destroy their ability to come to an informed conclusion about anything.  Instead, they become indoctrinated puppets to be used at will – not the smart people they think they are.

Normally, people ask questions they would like the answer to.  So why would anyone, except for the people that create, present and believe all the propaganda suffocating our very existence just now, be so excited that Barr was treated with such disrespect and not allowed to answer the questions posed to him? 

Wasn’t that the whole point after all – to ask and get answers?

Then, though we viewed and heard what transpired, Democrats actually came out and portrayed a scenario that suggested Barr was the rude one and Barr talked over everyone.  Oh, hear me laugh rudely at their audacity to attempt a gaslight moment as I “take my time back.”

I think of the riots and wonder how anyone can actually justify allowing them to happen.  It’s good because why?

It’s justified because of built up anger and oppression?

Does that mean I can go smack Nancy Pelosi around, steal her ice cream and set fire to her expensive refrigerators, because she has so upset me because her decisions affected me badly?

Well, of course not.

Neither is there an excuse for all the riots that are occurring or the people in authority that are allowing the harm to businesses, their cities and their citizens.

What’s wrong with these people?

Why are so many listening to them?  Will they continue to listen once it is their home that is being destroyed and family hurt or killed?

I’ve read Animal Farm & 1984.  It should be required reading for those indoctrinated puppets that have fallen victim to the propaganda of the pigs (not cops) that start out being the heroes only to lose their fairness in the pursuit of power.

Furthermore, no one should want recorded history changed from what it actually was, except for those who feel guilty for what they or their predecessors have done.

Who is trying to remove history?

It certainly isn’t the Republicans or pro-Trump people.

Shouldn’t that give pause?

Shouldn’t it give reason to take a look at what is actually transpiring, rather than what one is being told is the reality they should accept as theirs, though it really isn’t a “reality” at all?

Riots are occurring.

Governors – not Trump – are allowing those riots!

Citizens are being attacked because of the Democrats – not Trump.

Do you really think it is okay for people to be attacked because they happen to be on the street or in their business or homes, while rioters decide to do their wrongful deeds?

Some seem to be all in for the riots, so they can blame Trump, but it isn’t his fault.  Nothing that can be said or done will make it his blame to claim.

Before I close, which I intend to do…

My approach is to prove myself wrong in any situation.  If I can’t – then I am most likely right.

Someone tells me a video proves something?  I watch it with that in mind as a possibility.

Someone tells me someone said something?  I listen with that in mind as a possibility.

I have no problem being wrong, if I am wrong.

I’m like – okay.

What I do have a problem with are people who are indoctrinated puppets, who seem to have a toddler IQ, gaslighter intent, or simply the willingness to follow the pack and spew whatever is the talking point (truth or false) against the other side for the day.

Again…

Riots are occurring, which are illegal & officers should be allowed (required) to step in and stop them.

Governors, who stop officers from acting within the law, should be charged with all crimes committed as a result.  In other words, if I am slugged because a governor forbade the officers to enforce the law – that governor should be accountable for the assault on me.

If you don’t agree, I guess someone can come slug you, your kids, mom or dad and that is okay – cause, in your mind, riots are good and anything that happens as a result of the riot is good.

What a stupid thought.

It’s time to take a step back and consider all things based on truth – rather than political illusion and the puppet feed thrown out by the hate vultures to be consumed by the ill-informed.

Riots are wrong.

Kicking people in the head is wrong.

Ganging up on a person is wrong.

Burning down or otherwise destroying someone’s property is wrong.

Lying about someone is wrong.

Lying about what someone said is wrong.

Trying to take over power by deceit and for wrongful purpose is wrong.

What was once wrong, and works of fiction, has become our daily lives because…?

It’s time to take back our sanity and control of our lives!

It’s time to tell the radicals of both parties that we are done with them!

It’s time to seek and focus on the truth!

Trump isn’t the one that has being lying!

It’s time to admit it!

THE MISSING STIMULUS PAYMENTS: A MYSTERY UNSOLVED

by

So, where are the missing stimulus payments?  One can only wonder, it would seem – and many do.

I’ve been reading the articles and reviewing the IRS site.  I even listened to the IRS recording.  The answers are not there for more than a few people.  (Just read the articles if you are interested or have a doubt.)  Too many people haven’t a clue what the holdup is and haven’t a way to find out.

I personally know one person that should have received his stimulus payment direct deposit on April 29th, but he didn’t.  He doesn’t know why.  None of the possible reasons fit his situation.  He is a Social Security recipient, no one’s dependent, has a legitimate social security number, doesn’t owe child support and certainly doesn’t make anywhere near $75,000.  However, every day the “Get My Payment” says that they don’t have enough information (they’re working on that) or that he is not eligible.

It doesn’t matter that this person is not alone. 

It matters that there is an unsolved mystery that is adversely affecting people. 

It matters that these people have no way of finding out what is transpiring and why they haven’t received the stimulus payment or when they might – if ever.

Is it a glitch, did information fail to transfer properly from the Social Security Administration to the IRS, some other error or just an inconvenient delay because payments were going out to so many and some had to be last?  Only the IRS knows, if anyone does, but perhaps they haven’t a clue either as to why some have and some haven’t received the stimulus payment in a timely and promised fashion.

Maybe the politicians should stop playing politics for a while and worry more about where these missing stimulus payments are and what can be done to help fix whatever is causing the delay. 

It would actually be the right thing to do, put people on the right side of history and give actual meaning – for once – to all those political terms usually thrown around like sand in a dust storm.

It’s time to help those in need, who are still waiting and wondering.

Time to solve the mystery thus far unsolved!

Lying On My Mind

by

By Carrie K. Hutchens

Super Tuesday has not only kept “lying on my mind” – it has heightened the intensity of annoyance and threatens to call forth a few yells (or more) at the television set and computer monitor.  How did we ever get to this point of lying as the norm among a group of people that insist they absolutely deserve our trust? 

It’s crazy to say the very least of all things that could be said just now.

I hear – not by choice – ole Bloomberg’s ads and I wonder what planet he is on to so freely lies about President Trump and our country.  Does he think we won’t notice his lies don’t match up to reality? 

It’s mindboggling.

Mike Bloomberg, the nanny-wannabe, is apparently addressing the indoctrinated and uninformed when he makes the lying ads and statements.  Why then, since I’m not one, doesn’t he stay off my computer screen and television set?  I certainly didn’t invite him into my home or office or even the waiting rooms that always seem to have the television sets on the most irritating channels they could pick from.

Are they secretly testing impulse control?

Listening to “The View” in a waiting area, where one may not escape, is quite the challenge.  Lies and insults and more lies and insults.  And all the while, having to politely sit there and wait and wait some more and look at the clock to see how much longer I’ll be forced to endure the lies and insults, while my fumer is fuming on the inside like a volcano ready to explode and fill the room with hot lava of furious mad mean words.

How lucky my impulse control was in exceptional working order.

I fixed the problem of forced “The View” exposure by refusing to take people to any appointment where I’d be required to sit in a waiting room with a television tuned into it.  However, shaking ole Bloomberg hasn’t been so easy.  His ads have been all over the place and invading my space like he thinks he owns it.  Like he thinks I somehow owe him my time, as he spews the lies about President Trump and our country.

I’m not for sale.  My space is not for sale.  But Bloomberg sure has earned my rage with those ads he bought that I have not been able to escape.

Alas, Super Tuesday may have brought relief.

Unable to buy the election thus far – there is a chance that Bloomberg will drop out of the race and fade back into his world where money means everything and honor means nothing and we won’t have to be overwhelmed with his darn ads everywhere.

What a relief.  Oh, did I already mention that?  Okay, then… how about we go with liberation?  And liberation we got!

“Mini Mike” Bloomberg exited the race!

One down and many more to go before I no longer have “lying on my mind,” but today… I celebrate!

I may not like you!

by

I may not like you!  Actually, it’s an absolute that I don’t and won’t like you, if you are one of those people who lie about others for personal or political gain!  PERIOD!… COMAS… and EXCLAMATION POINTS!

I’m not sure which is worse… those who think they have a right to use “by any means necessary” tactics to get what they want because they think their cause is so righteous or those who merely like to get what they want because lying and cheating is simply a means to get what they want and there is no righteousness involved.

It doesn’t matter.

If you ever lie about someone, how can you be trusted by anyone? 

How can you be trusted about anything?

Personally, I don’t think you can ever be trusted again because it takes some low-down evilness to lie about a person, who has done nothing, and yet, here you are trying to destroy their life… their livelihood… their future… their hopes & dreams – all for your benefit or entertainment.  You don’t deserve any trust and you certainly aren’t “righteous” by any means!

I often wish we had virtual reality perfected, so people could be put in various situations to see and feel the consequences of their efforts and wishes, or simply for them to see how it would feel if something were done until them that they are trying to have done unto others.  In some cases, it might be an effective tool.  In other cases, it would be a lost cause, unless the person could see “whatever” would have a negative effect on them, because nothing matters, except how it affects them.  They have no conscience.  They have no empathy for others.  They are defective!

Politicians get no pass from me!  For years, I have been saying that there needs to be a law put into place like “false advertising,” “fraud”, and “stealing by deceptive practices” related to election matters & performance of duties associated with the office obtained.  If they get elected on a lie – they should be immediately removed from office.  If they lie as Schiff & Pals have lied against others – they should be removed without the due process they attempted to take away from their target.  Likewise, the victim and the public, as a victim by extension, should be permitted to sue those, who wrongly tried to take away their chosen representative(s) and void their votes.

The media claims the status of a “free press” that is to be a watchdog for the public.  As such, they should then be held to a higher standard.  Suing the media for slander and libel should be much easier than it is at this point.  Furthermore, any media, whether by intent or neglect, that reports a falsehood to take down a duly elected official or candidate – should have its license revoked and forced to immediately close down its operation.  In short, Propaganda Rags should not be rewarded or allowed to sway public opinion in an attempt to achieve their agenda by deceit.

People make mistakes.  People sometimes state things as fact, believing they are, but they aren’t.  People sometimes have more confidence in one expert than another and there is a disagreement about which expert is right.  These are not lies.  These are honest mistakes (without intent to deceive) or merely difference of opinion.

On the other hand…

We do have the intentional liars.  Do I need to name names or can you name them yourself?  You know… the people that repeat debunked claims, as if they are true.  People who repeat the lies over and over, no matter how many times the actual videos or audios are presented to them.  Or, the people who simply pull whatever out of the air on the spur of the moment simply to be able to do a putdown of their target, which seems to usually be President Trump, his administration and supporters.

Can’t they find anything truthful to support their position?

Probably not!

The media… the politicians… the puppet masters… the indoctrinated and simply uncool people, who live life lying about others for personal gain, entertainment or to lift yourself above others – so you think – I don’t like you… I will never like you… I will never forget and most likely – I will never forgive you for the evil and destruction you have attempted or accomplished.

May you be shamed with accountability for all the heartless words and deeds you have showered upon the innocent!

May no one trust or believe you again!

I won’t!

I don’t like you!

A Socialist? What in the world is wrong with people?

by

I’m amazed at all the commentary praising Bernie Sanders.  Worse, are those who have thus far voted for him.  What in the world is wrong with people?  Why would anyone want a socialist for President of the United States of America?  Why would anyone wish to live in a socialist country?  Can’t people grasp the reality of what they are supporting and how it would eventually affect them?

A good example of how well socialism works out is Venezuela.  Yet, the socialism champions can’t seem to grasp the devastation and destructive system that is reality and can be verified to be so.  Instead, on they champion as if oblivious to anything that does not match their fairy tale vision of the perfect society with all necessities provided to all people at all times.

Can we say – lack of critical thinking?

Twenty-first century indoctrination?

How can one reach these hateful and sometimes violent zombie-brained warriors before their numbers take the rest of us with them into a nightmarish region of suffering, hopelessness and even the potential of death?

Would a letter work?

Dear Socialist:

Do you truly understand the consequences of your quest?

You think socialism means everyone gets food, housing and medical? 

Think further.

There is a loaf of bread.  Everyone gets to share that loaf.  Do you ever consider the “portion” each would then receive?  Have you considered it might not be enough to sustain health or even life?

You seem to forget, in your little illusion of a world without need, that it doesn’t mean everyone gets all that they need, but rather, that there is “less” for all because all is shared.  And… eventually… that “less” moves into “nothing” left to be shared.

That’s right, dear Socialist Warriors – your illusion will become a nightmare of desperation and hopelessness.  It always ends that way.  It’s the only way it can end.  You, no matter what you think, don’t miraculously have a secret plan that will change the outcome.

Pick up a history book or two. 

It’s time you learn to live in a world of reality and work towards fixing and making the “workable” better, rather than rushing into an “unworkable” system that is nothing more than a fantasy with a deadly ending.

I, too, have thought of how wonderful it would be to fix all things for all people.  However, I’ve also faced the reality that when one pools money and goods – someone has to be in charge of the gathering and distribution.  This “in charge” person and/or group would decide what the people will get and how much they would get.   It’s how it has to work, if all people are to share all things.

Do you socialist champions really want others to decide how many slices of bread you get for the week?  Or how much electricity you are allowed to use?  Think of all the iPhones & other devices that you would no longer be able to use at will.  Someone else would be in charge of all that.  And, when they say, “no more” – there will be nothing you can do to safely fight the decision.  The government – a select few – will be in charge of every part of your life because you made it so.

You don’t get that, do you?

They indoctrinated you well.

Shake yourself.

Give yourself a chance to think for yourself again.

Think about this…

Those who are indoctrinating you, most likely think they will be among the “ruling” group that will be able to make all decisions for the lowly people such as yourself.  Why else don’t they want you to have necessary information and the ability to explore ideas other than their own?  You must, after all, think as they have told you to think, if you wish to be accepted, rather than shunned and perhaps even viciously bullied.

Do consider my words, if you can.

Could such a letter shake the manipulated out of their stupor of indoctrination?  I’m not holding out any hope of such a lightening strike. 

Wrongly perhaps, I often wish we could gather up all the socialist champions and take them to the land of their fantasy, so they can live socialism first hand.  I’m sure it wouldn’t take long before these people – who think they know more than anyone else – would be begging to return to the United States of America and its imperfect capitalism they once wanted to destroy.

Yes, too bad that we can’t give the socialist champions a taste of what they so desperately want, without taking everyone else down the path to a deadly nightmare. 

Maybe one day virtual reality will give us a means to do just that without causing harm to any.  In the meantime, we must fight to save ourselves from death by socialism and deadly destruction by those who are fighting to conquer and rule at our expense, not our benefit.

Bernie Sanders may think himself a savior, rather than the power grabber socialist type.  What he thinks and what his intent is matters not.  Once the door is open, and a socialist wins control, the country moves to the conditions and opportunity to become all the bad things of socialism.  It doesn’t take long.  It doesn’t take imagination.  Proof exists.

Look at Venezuela.

Open Letter to the Democrats in Congress

by

Dear Impeachment Obsessed:

The facts are simple!

Ukraine received the approved aid.

Ukraine received the approved aid by the deadline.

End of story.

You have no case.

You have no legit grounds to impeach President Trump.

You only have lies & spin.

It’s time to stop the Alinsky tactics.

It’s time to act with integrity.

It’s time to vote “NO” on impeachment.

Sincerely,

An Informed & Angry Voter

Open Letter to the Offended

by

Dear Easily Offended:

Tell me…

Do you intend to live out your life as a perpetual toddler, or do you have plans to eventually grow up and act and think as an adult?  Watching & listening to you, one has to wonder.

News flash…

Unlike what you have thus far been taught, you are not the center of the Universe to all people within the Universe.  Other people live in this world with you.  Other people have wants and dreams.  Other people have thoughts and preferences.  And, perhaps to your surprise, some other people are totally offended by your seemingly constant state of seeking things to be offended by.

I, for one, am not impressed by your snotty, self-righteous, selfish, baby-brat ways.  I’m especially not impressed by those of you who destroy other people’s property; as though you think you have some right simply because it offends you.  No, you don’t have that right.  It isn’t yours.  Keep your hands off other peoples’ stuff.

Even less impressive are those of you that take it a step further and think you have a right to assault others simply because you don’t agree with them.  You all deserve to have the handcuffs slapped on you & some serious time in a jail cell.  You are nothing more than vicious little criminals.

And…

Hilarious are those of you that claim you are fighting fascism, when in fact – YOU ARE THE FASCISTS!  (If you were as brilliant as you “think” you are – you readily see that to be true.)

To be quite honest, I’m tired of some government officials and radical lefties indoctrinating you and enabling your fascist little bratty easily offended ways.  It’s time you grow up and act like a respectful adult.  Or, do you plan to live out your life as a perpetual toddler, being played like an ignorant puppet by the elite seeking power that you’ll never have?

Just wondering.

Sincerely,

A person tired of your inexcusable behavior

I SAID IT, SO IT IS

by

By Carrie K. Hutchens

In this mind-blogging era, the media is full of statements of fact that aren’t actually statement of facts.  Some comments are merely opinion, while others come from some fantasy land that only the group-thinkers exist in.  And then, there are the actual Gaslighters, who knowingly say what they want us to believe in spite of the fact that it isn’t true and was never true and will never be true.  Their motto is, “I said it, so it is and anyone who does not believe has something seriously wrong with them.”

I both hate the news and hesitate not to listen.  We need to know what is being said, so we aren’t blindsided down the road and unable to turn back the results of Gaslighting and other lies.  Still, listening to the hosts, reporters and bias politicians that are obviously out to get President Trump, no matter how they have to do it, is maddening.

On November 5, 2019, a reporter – I’ve forgotten his name – said that the transcripts were damning to the President without a breath as to how they might be damning.  I guess we are just supposed to take his word for it, but I don’t.

Bias has a way of affecting our hearing and reading skills.

I’ve noticed that many people that hate President Trump, hate him because of lies – not because he actually did anything to be hated for.  Likewise, they hate Trump supporters because of untruths that have been spread as truth about them.  Hate them and think it is acceptable to destroy those supposed intolerant racist that they have no reason to believe are intolerant racist, except someone said it sometime… somewhere controlled by the Trump-haters.

To this day, people claim that Trump mocked a disabled reporter for his disability.  People hate him for being that type of person.  Problem is… it isn’t true.

People still claim that Trump was lying when he said he was wiretapped, though it was on the front page of the New York Times and Hillary Clinton was saying that Trump’s computer was communicating with a Russian computer.

Some continue to say that Trump never denounced David Duke & other white supremacists, though there is video of him repeatedly doing so over the years and into present day.

In reference to Charlottesville, Trump said something to the effect that there were good people on both sides.  The hate-Trump crowds rushed to claim he was saying white supremacist were good people.  No, he was talking about “regular people” protesters involved in removing/not removing the statute of General Lee.

Trump never said that all Mexicans were criminals.  He was referring to specific illegals – not all Mexicans – but the hate Trump crowds never let that get in the way of their false claims.  Likewise, the ban from certain countries was not a “Muslim Ban”, but to this day, lying politicians and other haters claim it was and is.

Take all the lies away and what would these haters hate Trump for?

He isn’t a racist or xenophobic, which should be obvious to the rational mind.

He hasn’t lied as has been claimed.  And, needless to say, the paper publishing the lie about him lying, should be held accountable.

Trump supporters have been attacked and yet radical-left friendly media has claimed that it is the Trump supporter that is violent, racist and intolerant.  Gaslighting in plain view.

Those who have a stake in people believing the lies, will be annoyed, if not furious, about the truth being told.  Can’t have anyone detoxing the indoctrinated minds and moving them into “think about it” mode. 

Those who are indoctrinated will simply be furious and irrational because that is how their handlers have taught them to react to anything not defined and condoned in the “group-think” state-of-being.

Those who don’t have a stake in promoting the lies, and aren’t indoctrinated, understand what the ongoing lies and media propaganda is meant to do.  It’s obvious. 

First, you destroy a person’s likeability.  (If you don’t like someone – everything they say and do can be irritating and ripe to be questioned.)

Second, you make it seem like the person lies.  (If you believe a person is a liar – first response to anything said will be disbelief.)

Third, lie and lie some more about the person.  Get media to support your position & plant even more lies, as the movement continues its effort to change all the good into something distorted that they can control.  After all, the goal is to make this a country controlled by a few, with zombie followers to do their bidding and keep the few in power over the masses.

Not much to ponder.

It’s that simple.

It’s that obvious.

It’s a mind-boggling era, where otherwise intelligent individuals have fallen for the lies and propaganda and don’t even realize – if they win – they are likewise destined to be one of the masses.  Yes, one of the masses – not one of those in power – not one of those graced with some benefit from their blind and wrongful movement of hate and intolerance for President Trump and his supporters.

Difference between those in need of power and those such as me – we don’t try to destroy people by lie.  We don’t cheat to obtain what we want.  We weigh the evidence regardless of our feelings about the individual.  We believe in truth, justice and fairness for all!  And when we say, “I said it and it is so!” – it really is.
