Obama on Trump

“I may not be Donald Trump now, but just you wait; if I don’t make it, my children will...”

The foregoing was once written by Barack Obama and Robert Fisher in a collaborative paper titled: Race and Rights Rhetoric. 

The brotherhood of happiness

The swamp is "the brotherhood of happiness." It's all-inclusive and doesn't discriminate. All are welcome, regardless of political affiliation. Drain the swamp!

The Hissy Fit of tbe Week

While Wall Street was rising, Main Street was going down for decades. The market goes up and down every time investors react. We haven't seen any collapse thus far, but some self correcting seems to be manifesting. Wall Street can have a hissy fit, but they very likely might be selling stocks for more than what they are worth (over value). Tariffs didn't cause the Great Depression, but bad economic policy did. Propaganda? Very likely!

If tariffs didn't work, other countries wouldn't put tariffs on the United States. Thus far the biggest critic seems to be China. I interpret that to mean they know the Trump strategy will work. We are obviously off to a good start, and it appears that the working class' liberation has indeed begun. 

Hegseth? Please?

What was going on the previous four years (Biden Administration) wasn't even a lesser evil, it was extreme evil. If you want to tell me about Hegseth being careless on Signal, I am pretty sure I can top you because nepotism in government is the gateway to all corruption in this country and it is rampant. I could elaborate on that with relevance to Hegseth, but I won't in this post. By the way, Biden didn't do shit with relevance to the Huthis. But, he also did nothing about the border while many human beings were being raped, robbed, and killed by the Cartels. Moreover, he and his party turned a blind eye with the hope of having millions enter the United States to maintain election power and a one party rule, and control.

We've jumped!

The world is being renegotiated at this time. We've jumped to another parallel universe, but sadly many aren't aware. A year from now we probably won't recognize this place. I am just glad I jumped because I would not want to be in that previous place. The corrupt should be very concerned!

With relevance to Cuba

With relevance to Cuba, I've always found some of the past U.S. policy difficult to comprehend, or perhaps hypocritical. Why? We went to fight the North Koreans (communism) before Castro was ever in power. Castro said he was Marxist–Leninist (communist), and so was his government. Afterwards, we went to fight communism in Vietnam for years. Both Korea and Vietnam are thousands of miles from the U.S. on the other side of the Pacific, yet Cuba is only 90 miles from the United States, practically next door. Mind boggling!

Of course, I heard Richard Nixon once say many years after he was out of office that maybe those missiles were still down there. Nixon had intelligence briefings, so why would he say something like that since he would have known for a fact if it was true or false. Mind boggling!

On eggs and chickens

It takes four and a half (4.5) months for a baby hen to become an adult chicken that lays eggs. If millions of chickens died or are culled (entire flock is euthanized), it takes quite a while to repopulate with any that are left alive. The following excerpt explains something.

More than 20 million egg-laying chickens in the U.S. died last quarter because of bird flu, data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture shows, marking the worst toll inflicted on America’s egg supply since the outbreak began.

The record number of chicken deaths, which includes those birds culled when infection is discovered in a flock, come as figures show egg prices have soared to the highest they have been in years, driven in large part by the virus (www.unmc.edu).

 

Keep in mind that the foregoing excerpt refers only to the last three months of 2024 during the Biden Administration. Moreover, the full article is from January 14, 2025. However, since 2022, supposedly more than 100 million chickens had been affected. Infected, however, is a different word which I recommend inserting when researching the issue.

In conclusion, don't count your chickens before they hatch. I am sure we can all figure this one out

This Ukraine thing seen through this Cuban-American's lens

The world has gotten used to the United States being the global police and military assistance provider/funder. Does the United States as a sovereign nation really owe any country anything? Technically, it doesn't! We have a huge national debt, and this we do owe. With relevance to Ukraine, we have sent billions of dollars for help in their war against Russia. Although, much of the money seems to be unaccounted for, which anyone's guess perhaps is thay it was used for money laundering.

The United States currently has an administration that puts Americans first, so basically the rest of the world can take a number. Zelensky comes to the White House supposedly to sign an agreement (deal) with the United States for rare earth minerals in Ukraine which also involved a peace treaty with Russia which the United States was negotiating simultaneously. Zelensky deep down seems to want to defeat Russia, but he doesn't have the upper hand. One can spin this many ways explaining. I personally don't even care about the details anymore, so I am going to change the subject to Cuba and Castro.

On December 31,1958 Castro took over the island of Cuba. Do the research and find out how many soldiers Castro had in the Sierra Maestra? I highly doubt he had enough to take over an island like Cuba. I am pretty sure that someone (maybe CIA) in the United States made a phone call to Batista and told him you have to get out, and Batista followed the instructions and left the country, although Batista had won the November 1, 1954 election with a majority of voters.

Subsequently, Castro came in and marched through the streets with his cronies, almost everyone seemed to back him. He was now the new guy in charge. Two years later in December 1961, Castro said he was a Marxist–Leninist. Castro had begun seizing United States property already before this happened. In 1962, President Kennedy sanctioned the Castro regime with an embargo. A few months before in April of 1961, the Bay of Pigs invasion took place. I strongly suggest reading up about the brave guys from Brigade 2506. They managed to kill many of Castro's guys although they were  outnumbered, abandoned, and their supplies and back-up never made it. Moreover, they actually changed the geographic area of the invasion from the original plan at the last minute to a rougher terrain (bay of pigs) making things more difficult. In October 1962, the Soviet Union placed nuclear missiles in Cuba aimed at the United States from only 90 miles away. Long story short, that was 63 years ago and the United States is still doing well on the world's stage. I will stop here and return to Zelensky briefly.

Who does Zelensky think he is coming to the White House trying to blackmail President  Donald Trump saying if we don't fund him the war will be here at our door eventually? Mr. Zelensky we've already had the missiles pointed at us from next door practically. I am so done with this rant.

To conclude, I wish Bay of Pigs would have turned out differently and Cuba would be free today. Many of us Cubans lost property, businesses, farms, and much more. I wish someone here would make the phone call and tell the regime in Cuba to leave, but that hasn't happened. Our new Secretary of State 63 years laster is actually Cuban-American such as myself, so that's a little optimistic. Now, if Zelensky wants to defeat Putin, he still can try, but don't come around here threatening us ever again. Got it?

Proxy using Ukraine

The proxy war with Russia using Ukraine was for money laundering for and by elites, but mainstream media didn't paint that picture because they are bought and paid for by those same elites. Let's see if the other NATO countries can fund the continuation?

DST is unhealthy, but we return to it on March 9th

Standard time matches our body’s internal clock. The daily cycle of natural light and darkness is the most powerful timing cue to synchronize our body’s internal clock. When we receive more light in the morning and darkness in the evening, our bodies and nature are better aligned, making it easier to wake up for our daily activities and easier to fall asleep at night. Daylight saving time disrupts our internal clock, leading to sleep loss and poor sleep quality, which in turn lead to negative health consequences.

On Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

One knows the idea behind DEI was total bullshit when it was never ever applied or incorporated in professional sports such as baseball, football, or basketball. Can you ever imagine watching an all-inclusive Super Bowl? Think about it!
