A Bleak Prognosis

When doctors impose "palliative care" and a "do not resuscitate", you probably don't have much time left. No sense counting the days though, as they have always been measured and finite. 

No More Tomorrows

You can be perfectly health but suffer a fatal fall in your shower. You can compete in triathlons but be hit by a drunk driver, What you can't account for may claim you at any moment, but when your body fails you, the inevitable seems much more imminent and certain. 

Out of Red

Is it sad that so many retailers are relying on today to start to turn a profit for the year? It will have taken almost eleven months to break into the black. Many shops are teetering and will not be in business next

 year. This is not a reflection on Trump though, as the economy was even worse when Biden was in office. 

Answer to Terror

If a terrorist is captured in the act of ambushing and assassinating Americans, he should be subject to summary justice, not years of trials, retrials, and appeals, but rapid execution. That would likely deter what just transpired in Washington from happening again. 

The Phony Pardons

I am not talking about the Biden autopen scandal in this instance, but do you really think the turkeys "pardoned" by Trump will not eventually end up on a dinner plate? They are just too plump and irresistible not to end up served with cranberry sauce. I like the birds actually; they are delicious with stuffing or dressing. 

The Leaders Talk

The evil dictator of China spoke with our President, the guardian of liberty throughout the world. They are scheduled to meet next year. Trump will talk to anyone to advance peace, but not at any price. Trump will not compromise America's security or freedom to appease China's despot. 

To Advance Peace

I think President Trump would meet with Satan himself, if it meant saving lives and bringing peace. Trump places the priorities where they should be- on ending conflict and sparing innocent people. Does Trump have an ego? Sure and a huge one at that, but so did the previous Presidents, who did not manage to end seven wars so far. Should Trump receive plaudits and the Nobel Peace Prize? Yes, but Donald is not ending carnage to stroke his ego. He is doing it for the sake of humanity. 

Trump Schmoozes Anybody

The evil little dictator of North Korea is an enemy of America and humanity, yet President Trump has met with him and embraced him warmly. Trump had a face-to-face with Putin, even though the American President realized the Russian despot was the aggressor against the Ukraine. So the President meeting courteously with the incoming, newly elected mayor of New York City should surprise nobody. Trump disarms opponents with a smile. 

Marjorie Taylor Gone

Jew-hating conspiracy promulgator Marjorie Taylor Greene will be leaving Congress. No more "Jewish space lasers" to worry about and no further concern about American "aggression" against Iran's "peaceful nuclear program". Maybe, Marjorie will join Tucker Carlson on his Jews cause the world's problems hate fest. Maybe the Jewish cabal crawled into the vast empty recesses of Greene's cranium to instruct her not to seek another term. 

Against the World

The entire world with the exception of Jewish and non-Jewish Zionists opposes Benjamin Netanyahu right now, but it is only those for Netanyahu that will ensure Israel continues to exist as a Jewish State. Bibi is not infallible, but he has been the Lion of Judah. Netanyahu bled for our People as a commando and has devoted himself to the safety of Israel ever since. 

Netanyahu for Survival

If a Leftist had been Prime Minister during and after the mini-Holocaust of October 7, 2023, Israel would have defended itself in a different way, seeking compromise more than victory. There is no doubt Netanyahu was more robust in Israel's response to the worst massacre of Jews since the Second World War than a Labor Prime Minister might have been. It is not that the Left in the Jewish State is suicidal, but that they still believe that there can be some deal reached with the other side, who are absolutely willing to accept a temporary cessation of conflict so long as the ultimate goal to drive the Jews into the sea and eradicate their nation is not slowed down too much, as Arafat's "war of stages" is completed to erase the presence of the authentically indigenous people of the region. Netanyahu is not perfect, but he has devoted himself to making "never again" reality for our People. 

Who Promotes War

Anyone pushing for a so-called "Palestinian right of return" simply wants to erase the Jewish State. Everyone who favors retaining "Palestinian refugee status" going into a fourth generation wants the Palestinians kept as a permanent provocation against Israel, rather than any solution that ends the conflict. Iran and Qatar want the Jews wiped out way more than any "free Palestine". 

Who Accepts Peace?

Israel has accepted the Trump Peace Plan. It is the terrorists of Hamas who retain their maximumalist demands after losing the war they started on October 7, 2023. The Israelis genuinely want the conflict to end. Hamas, and more broadly most "Palestinians" seek to extinguish the Jewish State, and the presence of Jews in the Holy Land. 

Not Expansion Team

My home town Tennessee Titans are an established NFL franchise. They are NOT the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the 1970's. Billy Cannon and George Blanda brought championships to the Titan's predecessors, the Houston Oilers. I am sure the Titans current ownership wants to put on a great show with all the pageantry surrounding football games. I only wish that Amy knew something about winning football. The Titans will soon have a magnificent new stadium to lose most of their games in, but the best Anthem singers and halftime shows in the League will brighten the occasion. 

Dutch Dogs Entertain

If you have never encountered a Keeshond, you are really missing out. These "Barge Dogs" have been called the "laughing clowns" of the canine world. They are versatile from agility trials to therapy dogs; this breed really stands out. I am a rescuer of this fine line of companions. I have helped liberate and place over seventy-five of these glorious pups through the years, and been smitten with the more than half dozen that joined our menagerie over the decades. If you want a dauntless protector, invest in a Doberman, but if you want hours of unforgettable entertainment, find yourself a Kee!

Tailored Straight Jacket

I am not a psychiatrist or psychologist, but in my humble opinion, Marjorie Taylor Greene is a lunatic. One fact of which I am certain is that the Georgia US Representative hates Jews who support Israel (which is the majority of Jewish Americans). Trump is right to drop his support of this conspiracy theorist. I hope a sane MAGA Trumpster defeats this albatross who has attached herself to the neck of the GOP. 

Peace Through Relocation

I am a Jew in Tennessee. If I were in New York City right now with the ascension of a Jew-hater to the mayoralty, I would leave. I might make aliyah, but I certainly would not remain in the city. There are places within America that are still Jew-friendly, at least at the moment. So an urgent flight to Israel might not be necessary yet. 

Long National Nightmare

The longest ever government shutdown has ended, not with a bang but with a whimper. In the dreaded event, exactly nobody died from lack of Federal services. Some had pay delayed, which will be made up. It was not great to lose continuity of government in certain areas, but the nation survived it. 

Some Venezuela Intelligence

The folks the United States Navy are rubbing out around Venezuela are NOT innocent fisherman, but transporters of deadly narcotics. Apparently, the United Kingdom disapproves of America being proactive in the "War on Drugs" and has stopped intelligence sharing concerning it. Since I want Americans to stop dying from Fentanyl and other drugs, the British can go screw themselves. 

The Shutdown Ends

Is it just a coincidence the United States Senate finally voted to end the government shutdown after the election? It is almost as if the DemocRATS maintained their unified stance only to win votes. It has always been DemocRATS that in past shutdowns had pushed to reopen government while Republicans were the recalcitrant ones. Oh, how the worm turned when an election was at stake. 

Made It Home!

Thanks to all for their prayers and support during my mother's recent health scare. She fought like a lioness and has made it home after twenty days of inpatient struggle. You are all angels for your intercession, and thank goodness, she is not an "angel" yet with her morale and fighting spirit more or less intact.

Change in Weather

Snow flurries may strike my hometown of Nashville, Tennessee. It will not be the "great blizzard" of 2025, but it is early for our first flakes of the season. You should protect the plants that will freeze and die on our twenty-six degree day. Stay warm Tennesseans! 

Just Snap Benefits

Folks in America should not starve. Nothing says though that churches and individuals can't fill in the gaps as government aid temporarily is curtailed. We have plenty here and should gladly share. 

Oakland Football Raiders

The Raiders used to be one of the most respected and even feared teams in professional football. In Oakland, the franchise was regarded as tough and even dirty, but they just won baby. The club moved and enjoyed some success in Los Angeles. Eventually, they took the gamble to move to Las Vegas. The Raiders seem pretty woeful now, managing just three points against arch-rival Denver. Maybe the silver and black lost some mystique moving to different cities. 

Not Conciliatory- Confrontational

The new Mayor of New York ran as something of a uniter who was going to lower costs for everyone in the Big Apple. In the event, he used his victory speech to tell those who had been stupid enough to vote for him that he is their new"Muslim" overlord. Many warned that this insouciant Muslim Marxist would put it to New Yorkers, and he will. 

Dark Day America

In the many places education has failed America, DemocRATS have just triumphed over good and common sense. New York City even elected a Marxist Muslim. These misplaced votes will inflict grievous damage on the places Leftism has prevailed. Yesterday was not a good day for Trump, but it was a catastrophic day for the United States. 

No Trump Referendum

Whatever the outcome of today's elections, Donald John Trump is literally NOT on the ballot. New York City is a progressive sewer. It will remain so even if Cuomo somehow defeats the Communist. If the Muslim Marxist wins, the city will sustain massive and possibly irreparable harm. Virginia is filled with Trump-hating government workers, many of them Federal, employed in or around D.C.  New Jersey has its own dynamic, where I believe the Republican gubernatorial candidate has a good chance to prevail. if the GOP loses all the major races, which is certainly a possibility, it will not be the fault of the President. If the results are mixed, it will prove we remain a divided nation (which we already knew). If the GOP sweeps, it will be a miracle and signal that the DemocRAT Party is now poison. 

Quarterbacks Under Duress

I have rarely witnessed so many big name field generals injured so early in a season. Football is a war of attrition, but I thought the League would protect the marquee players. It is only the Kansas City super hero who is receiving the force field of protection from the refs that I imagined every thrower would. 

Still the Champs!

The Los Angeles Dodgers may be on the path to a baseball dynasty. They outdueled a feisty and talented Blue Jays squad that never gave up either. We just were privileged to watch one of the greatest Series ever. My cap is off to both franchises, but as an American, I am happy a club from the country that spawned the game won. Toronto needs not be ashamed, They made a Herculean effort, but in the end, LA had just a bit more magic. 

Naming Mister November

Reggie Jackson earned the title "Mr. October", and deservedly so, as he shone in clutch time in baseball on the biggest stage of the World Series. Whoever rises to produce victory in tonight's November World Series Game 7, that player may well earn the moniker "Mr. November". This will be the consequential and closing game, and every player who is not physically debilitated is available to play. May the better team win.
