the sheriff ain't happy; 

Cullman Co. Sheriff Matt Gentry said in a press conference yesterday, "I'm pissed off today. I'm pissed off that we are even having this conversation". Gentry was  commenting on a situation where a Cullman Co. citizen was the victim of an online trailer sale that turned into a robbery. The seller was a local veteran who advertised a trailer for sale online. The perp was an illegal who had been caught and released by U.S. authorities. Yet, here he was. It ended up that the seller had a gun and shot the illegal invader after he pulled a knife and attempted to rob the him. Gentry went on to praise the victim for being armed saying "that probably was the only thing that saved his life". The sheriff is right. We should not even be having this conversation, but here we are with the very government that is supposed to represent the best interests of the American people force-feeding us this nightmare. These days the caretakers of the Republic have shoved the honest, hard working, taxpaying Americans to the back of the bus and have not only allowed, but openly encouraged a foreign occupying "army" onto the American populace. What Quislings there are among us! What drives these "leaders/officials" to do this? It was bad enough when we had banditos sneaking across the border. Nowadays, and in a concerted effort and for what I do not know, millions have been and are at this time being transported by planes, trains, and automobiles to points in the U.S.  Why we sit in bars, cafes, diners, and around supper tables we all ask, "why is the government doing this to us? Never does a sensible reply or solution appear, but only sinister motives..........more.........

it seems easy for mr peters to point out the insanity here in the empire; 

The push to “electrify” everything that rolls is turning out to be a lot like the push to “vaccinate” everyone in that both have turned out to have adverse effects.

VW hasn’t died suddenly – but it is dying.

Chief Financial Officer Arno Antlitz, speaking to thousands of maybe soon-to-be ex-VW employees, said VW has “one maybe two” years to turn things around else there may no longer be a VW in as little as two years from now. The company is reportedly considering shuttering its plants in Germany – a Hail Mary pass to reduce manufacturing/compliance costs. But moving manufacturing operations to places where it costs less to manufacturer things won’t solve VW’s problems because that is not VW’s core problem..........more..........

 

Go to school. Get programmed. Get a job. Spend your

life being a 9-5 wage slave. Pay off debt. Climb the

ladder. Have kids. Distract yourself by consuming

entertainment (tv shows, sports, video games). Pay off

mortage. Die.

 a teacher dropped this bomb on his way out the door;

It has been said, “Teaching is the greatest act of optimism”, and it is. I just retired from education after thirty-plus years as a high school teacher. I brought tremendous creativity, energy, and a little irreverence to my teaching, and students would tell you mine was one of their most enjoyable classes. Now in my 60s, I just don’t have the same enthusiasm I once did. My optimism for what is trending in public education is also running on fumes. Like a skilled party guest, it’s important to know when to leave.

It is said that you only need a sip of wine to know if the bottle is any good. What about three decades of “sips” in many classrooms? My first public school teaching position was in an “urban” Nevada school that was so gang-infested that one vice principal wore a kevlar vest under his button down shirt. I once asked a Hispanic student in one of the gangs, “Why don’t you warring gang kids band together and become a united group? You have so many of the same struggles.” He said, “Because if we’re better than at least one other gang at least we’re better than somebody, Holmes.” Telling.

By and large I genuinely liked the Spanish-speaking kids mostly because they interacted with me (as a bilingual) differently than they did with other teachers who weren’t. For the most part I found them friendly enough so long as you gave them a fair shake and never ‘dissed’ them. Hispanics are one-on-one reciprocal in interpersonal assessment, something I liked about them. That said, once you get beyond a percentage tipping point, they’re just as “our race over yours” as blacks.

The impact of illegal aliens on America’s schools is tectonic. The tax dollars spent to serve illegals (and feed and provide them health care) in our schools is obscene. Federal costs alone come to nearly seven billion dollars. In my state of Tennessee there is about $383 million in education spending on undocumented students (2017 figures.) Certainly it’s more now. Educating/serving children in foreign languages is twice as much per person as native born children. What do we get for this cash hemorrhage? Staggering truancy, a spike in discipline issues, low test scores and a high school dropout rate three times the white rate and twice the black rate. They receive free education, free meals, often free day care, and free medical services in school, yet, as with blacks, they loudly demand more rights, privileges, and entitlements. Mainstreaming these students into the regular classroom doesn’t serve them very well and results in a lower common denominator that puts a drag chute on higher performing students. (Much more on this to follow.)..........more..........

we, the empire, have fully become the enemy we once warned others about;

 I do not know how long the following video will remain on YouTube. My guess, is not long. However, you can watch it at Bitchute (here is the link). I copied it from Odysee and learned that not even WordPress will allow me to post a link to Odysee. We are living in an age of draconian authoritarianism in the West.

I remember a time when we in the West were smug and sanctimonious in condemning the Soviet Union and Communist China for punishing political opponents. Now, we have passed through the looking glass and are in an upside-down world, where it is the United States and Europe that are silencing political opponents and aggressively using social media to spread government propaganda.

The political hit job picked up steam today with the indictment of American citizen, Dimitri Simes, and his wife, for “violating US sanctions on Russia.” Just look at the following headlines. The last one is from the US Department of Justice website. Talk about misinformation. None admit the fact that Dimitri and his wife are US citizens and have held citizenship for 50 years. So much for civil rights. [Note: View the indictments for District of Columbia cases #24-cr-403 and #24-cr-404.].........more........
