Mendacity

Would you give 15 million dollars to someone who was "liable for rape"?  Of course you don't have 15 million dollars but let's say you're some rich S.O.B. who has quite a few billion?  No!  You you would stand on principle.  Good for you.  

BTW why would anyone pay a rapist?  How would the victim feel?  Like she was raped again.  Right?  Well looks like you're not ABC news or George Stephanopoulos.  Because they did just that.  ABC just agreed to pay 15 million to Former and Future President of the United States DJT's Presidential library.  They also threw in another million for his lawyers.  All because George Stephanopoulos kept saying DJT was "liable for rape" when that, just wasn't true.  BTW, ABC and Stephanopoulos have got to be wondering why they have to pay for saying something that wasn't true.  And, at this point can we say...  The truth hurts.

And as the skies over New Jersey and New York fill with not Christmas lights but those of unknown origin Drones, all manner of culprits have been assigned to their source.  It's Iran, the Hamasses, the Hezbollalas or even the evil empire themselves, the Russians!  But we kind of doubt it's any of them, as the Hamassess are going extinct, the Hezbollalas are running for cover, Iran sold all it's Drones to the Russians and the Russians are stuck in the mud.  Our Federal Government claims they don't know but it's nothing to worry about.  No one believes them, not even other politicians.  Which if we stop to think about it, is kind of refreshing for a change.  But before this turns into another Covid miss information saga or gets labeled Dronegate, let us say we think the Drones are ours.  The Drones have the good ole U.S. of A. stamped all over them.  Nothing else makes sense, not even Aliens.  So now you ask why would the Government lie?  Very simple, it's what they do.

And CNN got caught with their pants down.  Seems they interviewed a supposed prisoner held by Assad in Syria.  It turned out out that he wasn't  an actual prisoner but rather a brutal prison guard.  We're not saying the whole scene played out like a bad segment of Jerry Springer, Real Housewives or some other not quite, Reality Show but a whole lot of other people are saying so.  CNN is claiming they were duped.  This would be really bad for CNN, a really big blow to their status and credibility except, well...  No one watches them anymore.  

Mendacity definition: untruthfulness, lying

Getting There

We've all seen the MVP of the World Series, the Superbowl or other championships, standing amid confetti or sprouting champagne, trophy in hand, smiling broadly and saying. "I'm going to Disneyland!"  The season ended in final victory and Disneyland is the cherry on top of the sundae or the icing on the cake.  We'll for Bashar al-Assad it's not Disneyland, it's Moscow.  Now Bashar did not  look right into the camera, as he got off the plane there but he was smiling just as broadly as Patrick Mahomes or Freddie Freeman.  Bashar is still upright, still breathing and still above room temperature.  For a Middle Eastern despot who has been deposed, that's just as good as winning a World's Championship and going to Disneyland.

For Donald John Trump HLH, HIAH, Former, Future and some seem to think, current President of the United States, it's the White House.  He actually lives pretty near Disneyland, so he could just go there anytime he wanted.  But what he wanted was The White House.  And he's got it, in spite of being impeached twice, indicted 90 something times, convicted 34 times and shot.  We don't expect him to look into the camera and say.  "I'm going to the White House." as everyone already knows it.

For the Islamic Rebels who've just taken over Damascus, they say their next stop is Jerusalem.  We're kind of thinking, they might have a better shot at Disneyland.  If they're not on a no fly list, as yet.  Then again, maybe they have a better shot at Moscow or Tehran.

And this last Sunday, The New York Jets once again snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory.  The New York Giants just lost ignominiously.  The fans of both teams may well be gnashing their teeth.  Some of them are on staff here and they are.  But the more savvy among the fans are keeping their eyes on the prize.  With the season for both teams firmly in the toilet, the savvy amongst us know that wins are impediments right now.  The goal is getting the first pick in the 2025 draft or as close to it as possible.  That will put them on the path to the Superbowl, at some imagined point up ahead.  Right now, the Jets have 3 wins and the Giants only 2.  The only team in their path are the Raiders with only 2 wins.  So the goal here is to play out the string, loose them all and hope the Raiders win 1 or even 2 more games.  Now some of you are saying that's no way to play football!  But remember, the object is getting there and there, is the Superbowl.  Hopefully, before the decade is out.  Sort of like the goal of getting to the Moon was, back in the 1960's.

Man of the Year 2024 Joe Biden POTUS

Now some of you are snickering and some of you are laughing.  Some of you are just going what?  But just answer a few questions first.  One, how many of you know an Octogenarian who has a job, any job much less an executive one?  Two, how many of you know an Octogenarian who is senile, mangles words, can't string more than a few coherent sentences together and is still has that job?  And again, an executive one?  And last, how many octogenarians or anyone at any age who has everyone on his team telling them it's all over and yet, they still remain in that job.  Not only is this senile 81 year old, still at that executive position, that position is Leader of the Free World, the most powerful man in the world, the POTUS, President of the United States.

Never in the annals of American history has anyone so old, so infirm and so unable, ever been, The President of the United States.  Joe Biden, is Rocky, going the distance.  He's Emilia Earhart, in that his mind is missing, never to be found again.  He's Alfred E. Neumann and for those of you who don't know the reference, Alfred E. Neumann was a cartoon character who adorned the cover of a comic Mad Magazine.  And no matter what happened in the world, his mantra was.  "What Me Worry?"  Joe Biden seemed to be echoing that sentiment, as nothing fazed him.  Not the Covid, which he got multiple times.  Not ,high inflation.  Not, the price of gas.  Not, the war in Ukraine or the one in Gaza.  No, no  matter what happened, Joe Biden just stood there munching on his ice cream cone, unruffled, unfazed, his countenance seeming to say, no matter what you got, I'm enjoying this ice cream cone.  His signature statement made to Donald Trump during their 2020 debates of "C'mon man!" seamlessly morphed into.  "What Me Worry?"  All of which makes him unique in the annals of the American Presidency and American history.  And, all of which makes him our, 2024 Man Of The Year.

Still laughing?

Man, Woman Or Whatever You Prefer Of The Year 2024

First the runner ups.

1, Donald John Trump 45th POTUS, HLH, (He's Like Hitler) HIAH (He Is A Hero), current President-Elect.  DJT got impeached twice while President.  He lost the 2020 election.  He got indicted.  He got convicted.  He got shot.  He should be our Man of the Year but then incumbent Grover Cleveland lost an election and won the next one.  Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton both got impeached.  Bill Clinton also got convicted.  And, Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley, Teddy Roosevelt, JFK and Reagan all got shot too.  So, while in the aggregate DJT, is unique, all of the elements have been done before.  It was close but no cigar.

 2, Elon Musk.  He's got Spaceships, Space X.  He's got TESLA.  He bought Twitter now X.Com.  He's creating Nura-link.  In a sane world, he'd be our Man of the Year but then we don't live in a sane world.  Sorry, Elon,

3, Megyn Kelly.  Her rise from the ashes was duly noted on our site.  She was fired by NBC and sent off to the cornfields or so NBC thought.  Undaunted and unbowed Megyn created her own Podcast and now her audience dwarfs whatever is on NBC in the time slot she used to inhabit.  Maybe NBC was the cornfield.  They just didn't know it.

4, Taylor Swift.  She'll be on a whole lot of lists for Person Of The Year but she's not here.  Not even as a runner up.  We just threw her name up here to catch your attention.  Sort of like everyone else.

5, The BMind Smart Mirror.  Since we usually explain that it is Man of the Year if it is a man, Woman of the Year if it's a woman and whatever the winner wants to be designated as.  This seems like a good time to explain that this runner up would be the Thing A Ma Jig of the Year.  You look in this BMind Smart Mirror and with it's AI brain, it tells you, your mental status.  This could be really good.  Then again, how many of us really want to know our mental status?

Tune in next week for our 2024 Man, Woman, Whatever You Prefer or Thing A Ma Jig of the Year.

Whose In Charge Here?

Is it only us or does it seem as if Donald John Trump former POTUS, HLH, HIAH, has already assumed the office?  Like he's already the President.  Like do we need Inauguration Day?  This has nothing to do with whether you love him, hate him or even voted for him.  It's just he's up in front of the Podium telling you what he's going to do and everyone is reacting as if he's already doing it?

Joe Biden 46th President of the United States seems to have already left town  Like he is a face on a postage stamp or a picture on a place mat in a diner.  You know those things that lists all the Presidents in succession and you sit there and try to see if you can remember things about them.

It could also be due to the total meltdown of What Once Was The Mainstream Media.  They cringe, they cry, they moan over every utterance of DJT, HLN, HIAH. as if it's already happened.  As if it's already in the history books or it's etched in stone.  Since all they live in a bubble unscathed by "the slings an arrows of outrageous fortune", perhaps for them, it already has.  The members of What Once Was The Mainstream Media all have huge salaries, so the cost of things or high inflation, doesn't touch them.  They ride in limousines to and from their gated communities and then they seemingly float from one spectacular event to another, like Bees in a magical garden.  Homelessness and crime is something, they never see or experience,  They view the world through a camera lens and only worry if they're not in front of it enough.  So if something looks like it happened, perhaps for them, it has.  You know like some Sci-fi movie, where the characters imagine things and then those things come to fruition.

Maybe it's only us and we could be wrong.  But like we said before. whether you love him, hate him or if you voted for Kamala Harris, it sure looks like DJT, FPOTUS, HLH, HIAH, President-elect, is already. calling the shots.

A Few Election Observations

 

A few irregularities seem to have propped up from last week's election.  In 2020 Joe Biden got over 81million votes.  Kamala Harris in 2024 got 71 million votes.  That's 10 million fewer votes.  Where did those people go?  That's a lot of people.  They didn't vote for Trump, as he got 74 million plus in 2020 and got pretty much the same in 2024.

We can't believe with the election being in the news 24/7 and with every nitwit celebrity telling us to "Vote" every 2 minutes that people forgot.  Plus you could vote early, weeks early.  And, the weather wasn't bad.  Where did all those people go?  And, why is no one asking this question, except us?

Now way back in 2004 they said the election was stolen.  What?  Well at least that's why a whole lot of people were saying, as they kept counting the votes over and over again, in Florida.  This went on for weeks.  Then in 2016, The Russians stole the election.  How?  No one could quite put a finger on it but this went on for years.  Then in 2020 the election was rigged.  That's not so long ago that anyone should forget.  But now in 2024?  Well no one and we mean no one, has even hinted at any impropriates.  Did they get it all fixed?  How?  When?  Where?  And why are we the only ones asking?

And, once again the polls were wrong.  They had Kamala Harris leading and winning in a close election.  Where did that election take place?  Certainly not in the United States of America.  Maybe they had another one, somewhere.  Maybe in a computer game or some AI concoction.  Maybe on a Reality Show.  Why would anyone with any common sense or shred of credibility, ever consult or even mention one of these things ever again?  But they will.  Probably are right now.  And, they wonder why no one trusts the What Once Was The Main Stream Media.  Exeunt.

Election Analysis

Now the analysis will come pouring in from all the Know It All's, The Cognoscenti Of The Known World and all the Talking Heads.  There is the Glass Ceiling crowd.  Kamala is a woman and the country is not ready for a woman President.  Then there is the skin color crowd.  Kamala is a black woman and the country is not ready for a black woman to be President.  But then her mother's family came from India and her father's family came from Jamaica.  That's the island nation not that part of the Borough of Queens, NYC, where most of our staff  and President elect Donald John Trump HLH, HIAH, come from.  So maybe it's the country isn't ready for a East/West Indian woman to be President?  

And yes, most people from Jamaica are black and her father was black.  But the black connotation from the Know It All's, The Cognoscenti Of The Known World and The Talking Heads, usually means the individual was descended from slaves or at the very least their family was dead, broke, poor.  And Kamala?  Well her father's family weren't slaves.  They owned slaves.  So, maybe it's that America isn't ready for a Scarlett O'Hara, to be President.

Of course we're pretty sure that speculation from our last article was correct.  It all came down to...  Who actually made the French Fries.

Now of course there were other contests all over the country and as we mentioned before, some of the worst people in America are those who run for office.  We site as proof, all the ads we've all been inundated with for the last few weeks, months or has it been eons?  But no matter how you voted or who you voted for whether you liked them, loved them, hated them or just looked on with disdain, everyone should be happy today because at least half of them are gone.  You won't hear from them again, at least for awhile.  Maybe never.  And, it might be more than half, as some races have more than one candidate.  And, as we pointed out, sometimes candidates die and yet their name is still on the ballot.  Sometimes, they even get elected.  So, it may be more than half.  Maybe we should declare a holiday?  What to call it?  Hangover Day?  Bye Bye Miss American Pie Day?  Or maybe Elvis Has Left The Building Day?  Or just E Day for short.  Everyone will know what it means.

If we can get serious for a moment.  No matter who won, who lost, we think most modern day politicians are just actors mouthing focus group tested, talking points.  Maybe we're wrong.  Maybe some of them actually care about you and some may even love their country.  We kind of doubt this, as none of them seem to have ever done anything except run for office.  The list of real American heroes is long and lengthy but consider just one guy for a moment, General and President Dwight David Eisenhower.  Now compare his life story, to the people running nowadays.  

But regardless of how you feel, none of the modern day characters are worth fighting over with the real people in your life.  You know, your friends, your family, the people you really care about and the ones, who really care about you.
