The Reptilian Menace

Screen-Shot-2017-03-06-at-8.57.53-PM

According to David Icke humans are being manipulated by a group of inter-dimensional beings who can shape shift into reptilian humanoids. These beings feed off of negative human emotions and control mankind through their mastery of technology making biological changes to humans and getting greedy humans to do their bidding to keep tensions and emotions between humans high and negative.

I had given some thought to spending this op-ed on criticizing David Icke and pointing out the techniques he uses to get people to believe this and some of his other theories. But what if he’s right? I’ve witnessed enough weird things in my life that I’m pretty sure that if tomorrow morning the President introduced the world to an alien diplomat I’d just shrug my shoulders and carry on. So why criticize an obviously smart man who in theory could be right when maybe the bigger point is why have humans worshiped reptiles.

On every continent and among every people there exists at least one generation (likely many more) who worshiped reptiles. Large lizards likely inspired tales of flying fire breathing dragons and throughout mans existence the images of snakes have adorned the most holy of buildings the relics. From Adam and Eve to your local tattoo parlor snakes have been at the center of human existence. I bet there are a lot more snake tattoos than there are dog and cat tattoos combined. Even my ex-wife has a tattoo of a snake on her thigh (which should have been a major red flag for me at the time).

So why do humans hold reptiles to such a high regard?

Snakes can be anywhere at anytime. They are very sneaky. It always seems like they are looking at you and they have a cat like attitude. Many reptiles are also highly poisonous and can kill something several times its own size with a single bite. Many are edible, make nice clothing items and some can even be halfway decent pets. Why did the Egyptians worship cats? See the similarities? Yes you can eat and wear cats and yes cats also have mystical properties like their nine lives might indicate.

So clearly the reasons to worship reptiles by simple people are many and those reasons are confirmed by the worship of other species with similar attributes. Just like a cat reptiles are quite aloof and always appear to be plotting some scheme to control the world.

David Icke bases a lot of his theories on ancient writings and images and he bases his Reptilian Overlords theory on a preponderance of evidence collected from civilizations around the globe that show humans worshiping reptiles. This is not proof of anything other than the fact the humans or at least simple humans, tend to turn things that are mysterious to them into symbols of spirituality. Could it be that the simple explanation about the very nature of human beings is to explain mankind’s obsession with reptiles or could it be that there is an inter dimensional group of aliens who can transform themselves into reptilian humanoids and control the emotions of all humans so they can feed on that emotion?

If your answer is the latter I’ll let Red Foreman help you out.

Useful Idiots

useful-idiots-your-biography-27796842

Much like every year I have to spend one evening a year at Christmas time in a B restaurant with a large group of liberals and play nice. Well play as nice as I am capable of playing. I pretty much put the CEO of the company in his place this year but there is only so much bullshit I can tolerate.

As I was sitting there in my Ben Stein garb (a suit with sneakers) astounded as to how these people could possibly harbor the political beliefs that they do. Don’t they live in the same world as everyone else? Last year several of them came up to me in complete shock that Trump won the election. Really? What do these people do with their computers play Farm Town all day?

As I sat wondering if the weed I had in my pocket was going to be enough to get me through the evening I swore I heard what for my ears was a bright light. Ah thank goodness I was sitting close to Kirk. My kind of obsessed businessman. And then there was another beam of light for my ears Steve who is also a businessman and also has a realistic view of the world. Why were these guys different from the bleeding heart snowflakes in the rest of the dining hall? What made all 3 of us so different from the rest.

Ding Ding Ding!

Have you ever had one of those moments where a million little pieces of a puzzle suddenly all came together? I had one of those. What made the 3 of us different from the others in the room was the level of struggle our side endured as opposed to their side. When you’re in business for yourself every single day is a struggle. You have to deal with realities employees never even think of. For the average worker their struggle pretty much ends at the end of the job interview. An employee gets paid every Friday or every 1st and 15th of the month. The guy who is self employed doesn’t know if he’s gonna get paid. Both these groups view the world through their own condition.

Employees tend to be much less focused than the self employed. Employees tend to be most focused on whether it is 5pm yet. Instead of struggling every day many if not most employees just kinda float through their workdays and perhaps putting a little extra effort in on Wednesday (hump-day) to make up for coming into work half asleep on Monday and spending half the morning getting yourself coffee or in the toilet. The self employed individual comes out of the starting gate early ready to rock and roll because he must. There’s no guaranteed paycheck for him on Friday.

It is easy to spend someone elses money when you don’t really understand where money comes from and how hard it is to get. It is easy to think that there is something wrong with someone who has a lot more than you do when you don’t, won’t, or can’t see their struggle and their effort. It is easier to live in a dream world when your own struggles are limited and focus is not a major requirement of your life.

The first time I saw the world for what it really was, was at 39 when every single day was a struggle to survive. As an investment broker I had no salary. I did have what they called a draw which was $300 a week to cover my smokes and other minor expenses which was actually a small weekly loan that had to be paid off in full as soon as I closed a deal and the clients check cleared. A good broker in a high risk investment opportunity makes 3-5 deals a month assuming the leads are reasonably good. If they are not he can lose his car, home and job in the blink of an eye. Most good brokers will be in the office from the moment the door is opened until it is locked for the evening (12+ hours) in a business that requires an incredible amount of focus for the entire workday. That’s just a tad different than doing a 9-5 and taking a hour long lunch. I almost always ate lunch at my desk and almost always worked through eating taking bites while the phone rang. I became very successful in that industry.

But in seeing the world for what it was and the people for what they truly were my entire outlook on life changed. Yeah I had a Mercedes S class and a BMW 5 series and why the hell not. I earned them. I busted my butt while others were watching TV. I researched every single day trying to increase my revenue not staring blindly at Wolf Blitzer congratulate himself and his coworkers. In fact, as I was brokering and trading on an international level I learned very quickly that American news sources were complete rubbish. Had I depended on the MSM for my information I would have gone broke. So I learned to research the news not just have it fed to me.

People are easily manipulated. I know I used to make a very nice living manipulating them. The people who are the easiest to manipulate are the ones who are the most ignorant. Ignorance is a choice just like being well informed is a choice. Most of the people at the Christmas party were incredibly ignorant on important topics. Because of their ignorance they are completely incapable of comprehending complex social and economic issues so they tend to side with something simple that sounds good to them. Empathy and charity sound good especially when the cost of such things comes from someone else.

This is the core of liberalism. Well meaning ignorant people who live not in a world of their design but of one created and maintained by others. They want more but they aren’t willing to work for it and struggle for it and take risks for it. And while some part of them admires the people who do, another darker side of them resents those who are willing to do what they are not. Because of that resentment they harbor ideals that sound good and maybe even punish those who struggle more than they do, and succeed. How easy is it to manipulate such people? Tug at their “heart” strings and they will follow you anywhere even to their own destruction. They are of the pool where the term “useful idiots” comes from.

Forgive them Lord for they know not that they walk with the devil.

Trump News Network Changes Ahead

banner TNN

Pretty soon it will be 2018 and with the turn of a new year we sometimes make resolutions that we hope change our lives for the better. TNN will be making some changes in the new year that won’t make us any more popular (probably just the opposite) but coincides with my vision of what this organization should be.

Our presidents first year is almost over and he has had unprecedented success as the leader of the Free World. It’s in my opinion time to stop gloating and get to the business of voicing our concerns, preparing for the midterm elections and educating the public in areas of politics, economics, history, science, rational psychology etc.

To date I have been making a habit of adding entertainment to these sites. There is going to be less of that and I may phase that out completely. My thoughts on adding such things to date was to remind Americans of a better America and a reminder of our traditions and culture. Only a great fool would refuse to “move backwards” if what was done previously worked better than what has been going on for much too long. But that part of the programming hasn’t turned out as well as I hoped and frankly I don’t want people following my sites for the entertainment. Hopefully the news and information will be entertaining enough.

I’ve also decided that in 2018 I’ll be writing for the sites a lot more than I have in the past and I may actually decide to write proper essays instead of the garbage I’m been puking out for the last 3 years. I don’t care if you read them or not. I’m not asking for money to run my sites so you can put up with my prose.

In the end we’ll be posting less but with more focused content. This means you’ll want to make daily visits to the page as opposed to just waiting for things to pop up on your feed.

Anywho you’ve been warned. Happy New Year.

How Taxes Really Work

5g60uhlb0kc338yb586q

Suppose that every day, ten men go out for lunch and the bill for all ten comes to $100.

If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:

The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.
The fifth would pay $1.
The sixth would pay $3.
The seventh would pay $7.
The eighth would pay $12.
The ninth would pay $18.
The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.
So, that’s what they decided to do.

The ten men ate lunch in the restaurant every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve ball.

“Since you are all such good customers,” he said, “I’m going to reduce the cost of your daily lunch by $20.00.” So lunch for the ten men would now cost just $80.

The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes. So the first four men were unaffected. They would still eat for free. But what about the other six men? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his fair share?

They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody’s share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to eat his lunch.

So the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man’s bill by a higher percentage the poorer he was, to follow the principle of the tax system they had been using, and he proceeded to work out the amounts he suggested that each should now pay.

And so the fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% off).
The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% off).
The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28% off).
The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% off).
The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% off).
The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% off).
Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to eat lunch for free. But, once outside the bar, the men began to compare the amount they got off.

The sixth man said, “I only got $1 off out of the $20 while the tenth man got $10 off!”

“Yeah, that’s right,” exclaimed the fifth man. “I only got $1 off, too. It’s unfair that he got ten times more benefit than me!”

“That’s true!” shouted the seventh man. “Why should he get $10 off, when I got only $2? The wealthy get all the breaks!”

“Wait a minute,” yelled the first four men in unison, “we didn’t get anything at all. This new tax system exploits the poor!”

The nine men surrounded the tenth and told him they they were angry that he got so much off while they each got very little.

The next day the tenth man didn’t show up for lunch, so the nine sat down and had their lunchs without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn’t have enough money amongst all of them for even half of the bill!

And that is how our tax system works. The people who already pay the highest taxes will naturally get the largest benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start eating overseas, where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.

America Loves an Underdog

shutterstock_280847123

For the last year I’ve read one hundred explanations for why Trump won if I’ve heard one. They are all a little right and a little wrong.

Right from the beginning the press was all over Trumps announcement to run. OMG not this clown again! Who does he think he is Andy Kaufman? It’s a joke he’s making a mockery of the election process!

Most Americans probably thought Trumps announcement was a joke I certainly did. Wouldn’t be the first time he’d indicated he might run. It was however the first time he actually announced he was running so let’s see what happens.

If it wasn’t for the press people probably wouldn’t have paid much attention to the billionaire television celebrity. The more the press mocked Trumps primary campaign the more American’s listened to him. Immigration, the economy, morality, security were all issues Trump took head on. He didn’t mince words or use lawyer speak and the press hated him for it. That didn’t sit right with most Americans. These were topics that had to be addressed in a nation many Americans sincerely believed was on a rapid downhill slide. Because it was.

Most men or women would have crumbled under the constant attacks by the press but their attacks seemed to fuel The Donald and Americans began to admire him for that. Indeed his tenacity was admirable and remarkable and something the public hadn’t been used to in a very long time from a politician. As Trump grew stronger so did the hate against him and not just from the Democrats either many on the right were having emotional meltdowns. As Americans watched this unfold they wondered why this man scared the establishment so much.

Donald Trump wasn’t a politician. He paid for his own primary. The Democrats whose dismal 8 years were bringing America to her knees hated him. Many of the Republicans who hated Trump were hated by Main Street conservatives who often referred to them as RINO’s (Republican in name only) like Songbird McCain and Prancing Lindsey Graham.

But most important of all was the fact that Trump was by far the biggest underdog in the race the summer of his declaration of candidacy. The more the hate piled on him the more of an underdog he became.

America adores underdogs. We always have. We even have a cartoon icon whose name is Underdog and he’s a super hero. You can see people in America cheering for an opposing team all the time if that team is considered an underdog and does exceptionally well. Donald J. Trump did exceptionally well and even on the night of his historic election he was still the underdog. Americans will always give an underdog a chance to succeed we’re just hard wired that way. When you think about it America herself was an underdog at her founding. No one, maybe not even the guys who were freezing their asses off at Valley Forge believed America had a chance in hell of beating the worlds most powerful army but she did. No one in Washington or in the press corps thought Donald J. Trump had a chance in hell of winning the primaries much yet the election but he won both.

The story of Trumps election as president is Americas story. It is the story that created us – the underdog who against all odds won the day. And after a year of false accusations and conspiracies our underdog is still winning the day every day.

Dam it’s great to be an American.

Her Biological Clock is Ticking Away

giphy

I’m going to dedicate this Op-ed to young women.

You’ve probably been told that you can have it all. You can’t. You are not going to find a guy who’s independently wealthy and can take care of you the way you “deserve” and can be available at your beck and call 24/7. I hate to break this to you but there isn’t going to be a Prince Charming.

You have a choice to make and it is simple, career or traditional wife/mother. This choice has to be made very quickly in your life. A females biological clock is short run and every time it ticks the odds of having a burden instead of a blessing increase significantly. A woman’s best breeding ages are between her mid teens to early to mid 20’s. After that it’s a crap shoot.

Take your average modern female. She goes to college and maybe finishes up around 24ish. To make her degree worth anything she needs a job and at that job she has to build her reputation. By the time she works her way up to anything respectable she’s maybe only 30 if she’s lucky. Well past her prime breeding years.

Where in this equation is the man of her dreams? Well if he’s looking to raise a family he is likely looking for a female who is still in her prime breeding years. There is never a shortage of very young women who will be with a much older man to raise a family with. This is our 30 year old career woman’s competition in the man lassoing business.

If you are a young woman understand that this is the time of your life when whatever decisions you make you will carry with you for the rest of your life. If you want to spend your life as an independent career woman have at it with my blessings. That being said it is also very important that you understand the consequences of that decision and there are many.

The first, as we have already discussed you may never have a family and if you do you have a pretty good chanced of ending up with maybe one kid that has autism or some other kind of issue. Then there’s the issues with your health. Most jobs are pretty rough on the body you are either standing or sitting most of the time. Fairly recently women have been suffering ailments that were once owned by men like heart disease and strokes.

Perhaps the worst part about being an independent career woman is the loneliness factor. Sure guys will still want to have sex with you but guys looking for a serious relationship are rarely looking for a career woman unless their own work history is dubious. Guys who want a serious relationship want the Suzie Homemaker. They want a woman who can cook and sew and clean and who does those things well. Men want a woman who can take care of them while they take care of the family. In the end many career women find themselves more and more “independent” as time marches on and much more interested in cats.

There is nothing wrong with being a career woman as long as you understand the consequences of being such. Some women never want to be in a committed relationship with a man, they don’t want to give birth or have families, and they don’t mind spending much of their lives alone. For them being a career woman is the right thing.

If being a mother and a wife is what you truly want, then you also have to understand that you don’t have very much time to make that decision.

Quest for a Dinette Set

18dfc7e78d354542875c46622b7bf7dd

I decided I had enough of the Asian height table and chairs I had in the kitchen that Walmart was good enough to let me take off their hands for the price of one of their low end bicycles (it was more than $20) so I’m going to kick my game up a few notches. I bought this piece of crap in the first place as kind of an intermediary set until I had the time to hunt for something better.

Some things I buy new but furniture isn’t usually one of them. Used furniture is practically worthless which might explain the low amount your insurance company will reimburse you for it if your house burns down. Because of its low value (real antiques aside) you can buy some pretty fancy furniture for literally pennies on the dollar.

Same thing with just about any household item. I eat pizza and chili-dogs off of fine Mikasa Ivory China that is only missing the presidential seal. I don’t care if I break em either because if I break enough of them I’ll just go to Craig’s List or Offer Up and find me another crack head or person down on their luck and buy another set. My drinking glasses are from the Hilton Head Racquet Club.  Livin large bitches!

So I start scanning through Offer Up first because I can bid without getting personal. It doesn’t help when people are posting patio furniture as dinette sets. Listen people if your furniture is made out of wrought iron (or the fake stuff made out of tubing) and glass that shit belongs outside like the dog. Same thing with that rattan mess. OUTSIDE! Out Out Out! Man I don’t care if you live where the sun shines warm every day of the year that shit is outdoor or collage dorm furniture. Empty milk crates are also college dorm furniture.

Looking at all this furniture gives you a real idea about how crazy people really are. You paid what for that? I don’t know what this fixation is with covering eating chairs with cloth but that is what you do to furniture you’re going to store not sit on. And those must be some cheap ass chairs in the first place to be covering them with cloth. Then there are those people who have to have a storage area under their tables. Really? Maybe you should stop hording things and throw them away. The only thing that belongs underneath a table is feet and gum.

High end furniture is a hodgepodge of good taste and carnival. It is also often less focused on quality and more focused on where a certain piece came from. Some high end furniture is just plain awful. Now to be fair a lot of high end furniture was originally purchased to be looked at rather than sat on which generally leave them in pretty good if not new condition but some of it is an insult to the eye and ones sense of art. Still a determined individual with several hours on their hands can, in time, find high end furniture that is as pleasing to the eye as it is to your bottom and backside.

What you are looking for basically is 2 kinds of people the ones who are moving and don’t want the hassle of moving furniture and those whose adds have been listed for more than a month. When you’re buying you have to be a salesman to get the best deals. First thing to overcome is the buyers illusion that he’s going to get a fair price. He isn’t. First of all his furniture isn’t worth anywhere near what he paid for it and that is a hard pill for someone to swallow. The second is everyone and their grandmother is trying to sell their furniture too. Thirdly you have to pay for pickup and delivery. This cost can vary greatly but as a buyer that expense has to come out of the value of the furniture.

So what did I end up with? Well I bought the table in the photo above for $25. I got $25 left on my $100 budget for chairs. I’m feeling pretty good about my chances of finding a nice set of 4 cheap. Kinda had to sell dining chairs without a table. LOL

 

 

Let’s Talk About Mary

nativity-mary-mother-of-jesus-baby-jesus-1301892-high-res-print

I was a bit curious today as I was compiling material to post on the 2 sites I run about how old the Mother Mary was when she gave birth to Jesus. I knew she was probably pretty young but I didn’t know how young and I wanted to know. Historians estimate that she was 15-16 years old meaning she was probably pregnant at 14. It may have been the custom to marry off ones daughter at an early age way back then but they were still the same type of little girls you might see walking home from your local middle school.

So imagine what it was like to be pregnant at 14, marrying a guy that wasn’t your baby’s father, and the story you have to tell about your pregnancy …. well it couldn’t have been easy. Imagine your 14 year old sister or daughter going through that. At 14.

As much as most Christians tend to worship the Mother Mary I wonder how many of them have really thought about her life and the challenges that life presented to her. I can imagine Joseph must have loved her very much and that love must have been an incredible support for her. Still the whispers at the watering hole or the market. You know how women are. Joseph probably took some flack from the guys he did business with.

Mary went through all that, and on the night she finally gave birth she had to do it among the livestock. Not exactly the most sanitary place to bear a child. And again I keep coming back to that same point of how she was likely a 15 year old mother. That to me is simply amazing.

So yeah ok tomorrow will be Jesus Christs birthday and this day is for him but maybe we could also spend a little time during the next few hours thinking about a 14 year old girl named Mary who changed the world and what she went through to do it. A prayer for her would also be appropriate.

To Hell with England!

cow_0

I’ve got a real problem with England or The British Empire or the United Kingdom or whatever the hell the limey’s have been calling themselves lately. First of all I think they are absolutely insane to have taken in so many immigrants or refugees or terrorists or whatever the politically correct term for them is today, that their capital city is in the hands of a Muslim. Have these idiots ever picked up a Koran or even a newspaper?

But hey it’s their country and if they want to destroy their heritage and traditions while handing their nation over to people whose greatest desire is to force them to convert to Islam, pay a fine for not converting, become enslaved for not converting, or simply beheaded for not converting. You can probably add tossing the faggots off of high rises to that list. After all that having the nerve to dis the President of the United States crosses a line and there’s no going back.

Remember us England? We allowed you to claim a win during WWI after you refused a more than fair peace offering from the Germans who were winning that war before you sold your souls to Lord Rothschild. Remember WII where you got yourselves in over your heads declaring war with the Germans….again. You people just never learn. Who was there to bail you out AGAIN?

And you scumbags have the nerve to dis a duly elected President of The United States of America? Good let Americans see what you really are instead of the pomp and circumstance you hide behind. Yeah Trumps going to England next year but he won’t be visiting with your crowned heifer will he?

What I find interesting in all this is that England still to this day, after starting 2 world wars, has still learned nothing. They think they are still some kind of empire instead of some little island whose biggest claim to fame is bad weather. Just like in the world wars England thinks it’s much bigger and a much bigger influence than it actually is.

Without the United States England is nothing. Without the United States England would no longer exist as a nation. So you’d better watch your step this time England because if you mess with us, there’s no one to save you again this time.

Toxic Femininity

C8WTHccXsAEiZt9

Although it could be argued that the women’s suffrage movement was the beginning of feminism it was the free love and drug scene of the 1960’s that really set off that powder keg. It was not long after that when divorces became common place instead of the shame that was generally, or at least outside of Hollywood attached to the ending of what was to be a death until part relationship. Suddenly sex was more than simple procreation it was an obsession among women and experimentation and multiple partners and encounters turned Suzie Homemakers into Debbie does Dallas. Pandora’s box was wide open.

Of course to be able to have multiple partners and encounters and sexual experimentation a woman had to be independent of a mans wealth as no sane man would tolerate his woman “experimenting” with other men and/or women. As women entered the workforce in greater numbers they completely took over some positions that were traditionally held by men. Believe it or not there was a time when secretary’s were men. Secretary of State is a prime example.

As divorce began to skyrocket the family completely fell apart. Generations of men raised by women who had no idea how to teach them to be men led up to a generation of beta males living in their mothers basement or becoming perpetual students until a father they see sometimes as much as 2 weekends out of the month doesn’t have to pay anymore or dies.

This entire process is something I like to call toxic femininity.

Nothing about the feminist movement has benefited the family. The movement in league with Hollywood and the press have done an excellent job convincing women that a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle. The only necessary function the male plays is as a financial resource and even then he can easily be replaced by a government that encourages divorce.

Clearly toxic femininity has done great harm to the family and to men but what about women? Are they better off being Debbies than Suzies? Apparently not. Study after study has confirmed that not only are women less happy than when they were making pies and sending the kids off to school, even their health has suffered with women in their 30’s having heart attacks just like the men. This was virtually unheard of before toxic feminism began taking hold.

Today’s intimate relationships aren’t very intimate anymore. Young men, having seen what their own fathers and grandfathers have gone through want none of it and are avoiding marriage and responsibility in general like the plague. For them the only winning move is not to play. On the other hand many young women long to have families of their own and want to be Suzie and not Debbie anymore but there are few takers.

Toxic femininity has knocked women off the pretty little pedestal they used to be perched on, gave her a 12 inch dildo and a valium and convinced her that meant freedom.
