Weekend Chatter

 I watched a Sunday morning talk-show clip....Marco Rubio....being interviewed by CBS's Margaret Brennan....where in the middle....she (Brennan) asserts that assertion that free speech in Germany in the 1930s caused the arrival of the Nazis, and the Holocaust.

Rubio pauses in the answer, and then blasts Brennan.  'Made-up' history crap.

You know....in the past 20-odd years....there were so many idiots who were hired by Presidents....that half of them would readily agreed with Brennan.  Rubio is ultra smart and more than capable to answer questions.

As for the arrival of the Nazis?  If you look back at treaty signed by Germany, the UK, France and the US....the reparations demanded by the victors....is the entry-door for the Nazis to be in position in 1929....to  benefit from chaos of Wall Street. 

Free Speech? By the mid-1930s....after the arrival of the Nazis...it was gone.  

How a Fraudulent Scam Using Gov't Funds Would Work

 Lobbyist group 'X' comes to exist, and has twenty companies supporting them.  Figure around $700-million in faked-up costs and the federal gov't  pays the 'bill'.

So the lobbyist group is paid $400-million.

Out of this, 10-percent ($40-million) is the cost of running the lobby organization in DC (building, operations, salary,  leased cars, paid lunches, booze, etc).

Another 10-percent ($40-million) goes to the Senate/House support staff.  This is to ensure the Senator or Representative goes by the script.  So you might funnel a $20,000 weekend trip to Vegas, pay a private golf membership club deal, pay for the staff-members daughter to attend Duke University, etc.  

Another 10-percent ($40-million) probably goes to the government agent who funneled the contract to the right company.  He might get a bag of forty gold-coins, a cash-card loaded with $10,000, or an exceptional low-interest house loan via a friendly bank. Maybe there's a private jet trip to the Bahamas for the agent and his wife every August.  

Another 10-percent ($40-million)would funnel off to the Representative/Senator himself.   Maybe you'd arrange for their wife to get a charity-operation executive job (say $150k a year), or arrange for the Senator's girlfriend to have an apartment in the DC area.

Finally, you have the big-pot to handle campaign donations.   You pay some TV station to ensure super-positive comment.  You pay a PAC to help.  You rig donations.  At the end of the campaign....if the Congressman has a $150k debt.....you arrange for special friends to pay the debt.

The funny thing....is that it's the gov't money funding all of this crap.  You can figure that almost all of the House and Senate members are tangled-up in this, and getting some type of 'gift'.  

My One Trip To The Kennedy Center

 This week, the Kennedy Center (in DC) got into the news.  Basically, President Trump dumped the 'manager', and brought in a new guy.

The new guy asked the budget-folks what's in the pot, and they responded 'nothing'.  Even in the maintenance pot....there's zero.  What they can show....the top-level  of the crew....for the past couple of years....had a fantastic salary, but could not make the Kennedy Center profitable.

I've been  to the Kennedy Center once in my life....back around 2012.

I went to a musical showing of Madam Butterfly.  

The Pentagon recreation folks had these discount tickets.....I still ended up paying around $75 for what I consider a nose-bleed seat in the top balcony.

I got there early and being from 'Bama'....I surveyed the facility (meaning I checked out the bathroom and it was 5-star).

Around the halfway point of the show....they paused for a break.   As I tried to exit the  balcony area, and this hefty older gal...probably in a tight evening dress....did some kind of fainting spell.  Some other gal....about 10 feet away....then seemed to sway a bit and seemed ready to collapse. At that point....I felt 'faintish'.  

To be honest, the story-line of Madam Butterfly didn't seem to thrill me, and the faint-business was starting to worry me.  

I decided....enough.   I left at the half-way point.  I took the DC subway home.

What's going to happen to the Kennedy Center?  I'm going to predict that the culture crowd....all bothered by Trump taking over....will refuse to offer crappy musicals, or leftist fits of rage, and the Kennedy Center by the end of 2025....is mostly closed down.  

To be honest, if you consider the local feeling for culture....you are better off with NFL football, or professional wrestling.

The Weirdest Angle Of Revealing?

 With Trump saying he's going to put the truth out....what's the weirdest angle that we might expect on:

1.  UFOs

- We discover there's only one single race of aliens, and they are marginally brighter than humans.   Over 70 years....we've only taken one single craft of theirs apart, and figured out the technology....mostly in the last five years....due to some guy coming in on weekends...named 'Elon'.

2.  9-11:

- We discover that Bin Laden was not the chief source of 9-11....that it was a CIA-group and a Saudi-prince who developed the attack, blamed it off to Afghanistan.

3.  JFK shooting

- We discover that JFK was on the verge of firing almost all of the top-level  of the CIA.   

4.  Covid agenda

- We discover that the plan  to develop  it occurred around 2008-2010, and it had more to do with getting a large segment of society inserted with nano-probs/bio-engineering than anything else.

5.  Epstein agenda and guests

- A Mossad operation from day-one, and over 500 guests compromised in some way. It was mostly to get financial information to bet on the future's market at Wall Street.

6.  Expenditures/Musk/Big Balls

- We discover that since 2008 and the increasing-factor of spending....relates to massive use of cash in the Fed for fraudulent lending, and fraudulent 'grants' to benefit only Democratic projects. In the end, we add up the numbers, and half of almost every single budget...was wasted.

Just a Story I Will Admit

 After I retired from the military, I spent around twelve years as a contractor....working hand-in-hand for the same military organization I retired from.  I worked for Company-X.

Things were fine with Company-X, for about six months, then the new contract had to be worked up. By the end, our company took a lesser contract.  It was a 'win', but on yearly salary/benefits....we all took a 3-percet 'cut'.  At that point, I lost respect for the contractor situation.

Five years would pass, and we'd re-compete once again....this time, Company-Y won.  Company-Y was fuc*ed-up to the maximum and they anticipated that all of people (currently in Company-X) would slip over.  

Well....no, once they laid out the pay-scale/benefits....maybe 10-percent of the people stayed.  

Me?  I ended up staying, and taking a 15-percent pay-cut.  The single-plus-up?  Well....they gave me seven days of sick-leave each year.  The sick-leave disappeared twelve months later.

So in my vault area....there were just two of us from the old team....with 12 empty positions.  

Company-Y had forty resumes.  They passed them to my military boss (a GS).  He came to me and said....pick.

I sat there mostly amazed.  He didn't want to waste an afternoon doing this.

So I  sat there with the one remaining Company-X employee....a female, and we discussed the 're-build'.  

Typically, the old company was pro-guy...meaning if they had four positions open, they hired one single female. That was the HR-tech side of things.

I eventually went and did something 'crazy'....I racked up the resumes (forty of them), and found 15 of them were female.  Of the 12 positions....I filled two guys and ten women.  

I figured my GS boss would catch this and say something.  No....he didn't.  

About six weeks later......they began to arrive, and the rest of the vault came to notice....an overwhelming female presence.  

Yeah, I rigged it....but no one from HR or the hiring authority grasped my prioritization. 

Three Crystal Ball Predictions

 1.  In about two to three weeks....someone is going to call the Mayor of LA (Bass) and simply say that Elon Musk's plane is landing in LA in about an hour.  She will call out her secret 'spies' to follow Musk.

So about two hours pass, and the 'spies' report back.  Musk is in the burned-out part of LA, and talking to locals....a lot of locals.  They will note that he's brought five or six of his 'get-it-done' young prodigy people (the Big-Balls crowd).

Six hours pass, and the 'spies' report Elon has departed.  

A day later, Trump will announce that the mayor and  governor are failing.....the federal gov't is stepping in, and a team of Big-Balls geeky guys are putting the fix-it operation in place, with federal marshals protecting them.

2.  Governor Newsom will approach Trump in late March to say that all the Latin American construction workers have disappeared because of ICE.....so he (Newsom) wants Trump to approve entry/work-papers for 30,000 Chinese  construction workers to enter the US....to get the job done.  Trump refuses, and instead offers Mexico 10,000 permanent work-permits.

3.  Finally, an audit will be done over the California high-speed rail....showing it has no real study done prove it would ever be used.  The project will quickly die-off. 

The Kiseki Man

 This past week....Japan's Prime Minister showed up in the US, and pledged $1-trillion for US investment purposes. 

Yeah, it's an awful lot.

So I pondered over this.

Japan has this term they use in describing a battle or assassination attempt.....where a massive effort was made....lives lost, and yet it was a failed attempt.  

In their mind....if you tried to kill someone and it failed....the person (surviving)...has some type of unforeseen destiny now attached.  They are no longer a mortal man.  The term?  Kiseki.  

This would be the description attached to Trump.  

Japanese folks attached to  the term 'immortal'?  They have a word which loosely translates to immortal....but it also means 'undying' and 'imperishable'.

I won't suggest that they are a bit crazy over traditions or legends, but they do attach a status to things....which goes beyond the norm.

The trillion-dollar gamble?  They seem pretty sure.
