The $6-Billion Loss?

 Someone brought up today....that ultra-modern crappy air  defense system that Russia delivered to Venezuela....on credit....had a pay-back bill of $6-Billion. 

The question is....will Venezuela pay the money?

I  paused over this....what was rigged up....was a China-to-Venezuela-to-Russia deal.  China bought Venezuelan oil....likely paying in Yuan....which gave Venezuela a chance to buy Russian crap....paying with Yuan.   The Russians?  They probably then used the Yuan to buy crap from China.

So....if the cycle is stopped....China and Russia are probably both starting to worry about the finances they have rigged up.  Plus....they have to wonder....what if Trump moves onto Columbia, or Cuba.

Are we all done?  Well....there is this massive oil/natural gas find in Guyana (2024) and Maduro was thinking of consuming that. 

Five Things Out Of The Maduro Situation

 First, he's going to blab (for a deal) over election fraud in Venezuela, several Latin American countries, and probably the 2020 US election.  He'll blab over CIA operations that aren't officially supported by the Trump team.  He'll blab over training deals with Iran.  And he'll blab over financial support for US Republican and Democratic Senators (my guess is that at least 15 of them are getting cash flow).

Second, I don't think his sentence will involve more than 5 years of prison....to be released into Dubai, with X-amount of money.

Third, after all the election corruption comes out....the 2026 November election will be a problem for several states who intended to run electronically.  I suspect the Administration will mandate E-voting is too corrupted to use.

Fourth, just guessing....more than ten US senators will resign by spring....because of his capture.

Fifth, drug cartel folks probably stressed out and looking for a new avenue.

Five Problems With Society Today

1.   We have people who grew up online....that they actually do not believe reality is really real and act accordingly.

2. Probably a quarter of society finished high school/college....and if you tested them....they are maturity-wise....still a 12-year-old kid.

3.  TDS-sufferers (Trump-Delusionary-Syndrome people).....can never be cured, and will advance to VDS (Vance-Delusionary-Syndrome) or RDS (Rubio-Delusionary-Syndrome).

4.  I would imagine one out of every three Americans between twenty and thirty....are seriously into debt and probably will never own a home.

5.  I suspect if you drug-tested 1,000 adults....more than a quarter of them will have 'something' in their system....illegal.

Four Humble Thoughts

1. Pete Buttigieg comment on doing podcasts: “I've started doing some of these podcasts, that are like three hours long. Even if you intended to be on talking points for three hours, it is just not possible, which is risky!”

What exactly does Pete have to share....that takes more than 15 minutes to share?  To be honest....from the Obama/Biden eras....there just aren't people who should be talking more than 20 minutes max.

2.  I sat and watched a female trucker in a video this AM....in a snowstorm....dealing with a state patrol guy....in flip-flops.  Yeah....non-American.

3. Just a wild suggestion....by December of 2026....at least three state governors will be giving  testimony in a grand jury situation, and face up to five years of prison....for connections to the Somalian fraud business. 

4.  About once a week....I ponder....if Islam is so great, why do Muslims flee to Western countries?

Where This Iranian Revolution Is Leading Onto

Basically, the Shah (son of the original Shah)....is staging a comeback, and the bulk of society is ready to accept him, and kick the Mullahs out.  Added drama?  There is some relationship between the Shah and Israel....meaning that if the revolution is successful....this bitter Islam-versus-Israel is likely to end.

More drama?  Liwa Zainebiyoun: A Pakistani Shia militia group....sponsored by the Mullahs. Hezbollah: A Shia Islamist political party and militant group in Lebanon. Hamas....a Gaza-Islamist group.  There's at least forty-odd groups that the Mullahs sponsor....that would come to a end under the Shah's government.

Peeved public?  Since day one of the Mullah era....they have not been concerned over the economics of  the working-class Iranian.  The bulk of society have been angry for the past decade....as things continually crapped out.  The older folks remember the 1960s/1970s....when they had higher living standards than today.

Where do former Mullahs go, if chased out?  No one has spoken to this topic. Dubai, Turkey and Saudi Arabia....will NOT take them in. Lebanon?  No way.  Syria and Iraq?  No way. They might be able to enter Afghanistan or Pakistan and just disappear.  

If the revolution is successful....terrorism in the Middle East takes a big stumble, and there's virtually no money to sponsor folks.

Minnesota Fraud Thoughts

 After a week of examining all this Somalia business and fraud.....I've  come to five thoughts.

1.   I don't think any of the child care operations....some run for 10 years....were ever legit with Minnesota tax authorities, or IRS.

2.  Based on some commentary about banking with the billions.....as operation #1 got paid $10-M....they transferred the $10-M to operation #2, who transferred to operation #3, and #4.

Some people suggest five to ten layers.....which leads me to ask....did each layer report an 'income' to IRS and state tax offices?  With all this movement crap....didn't banks ever notice?  Then I wonder....the second, and third bank accounts.....did the guy have a legit ID, or a fake ID?

3.  Looking at this....was this achieved in all fifty states?

4. If some county DA was given $50,000 in campaign donations from a child center....what were they paying for, and did the DA do a 'favor' for them?

5.  Finally, I wonder....if you were handling the money....shouldn't you pack up ASAP and leave the US?

The Alien Scenario

 I read a piece yesterday....someone with the theory that one out of eight humans on Earth....are 'guests' (aliens in disguise).  Course, there is no substance to the idea.

After a while....it did come  to me....it would be fairly easy for some crowd of aliens (similar  in appearance) to just arrive....mingle...create a identity of some type....and 'vacation' in some weird fashion on Earth. Certainly....the one out of eight number....is way too high for this idea to work.

Why some  idiot alien would vacation on Earth?   I pondered upon this....remembering the movie 'West-World'.  If you were a fairly advanced culture (say a thousand years more advanced).....you probably would be entertained by Earth's wild behavior.
