Great Wall, Pandas, and Mcdonald's

 Our secretary of the state is calling out birthright citizenship.  Well guess what?  His parents were illegals when he was born in our country.  Does that mean ICE should deport him?  His parents did commit a crime, just like they say others are doing.  It's so sad how our country has gotten.  We are running off doctrines of racists and calling it normal.  Trump was selling housing to Russians for the same purpose.  I guess when they pay you millions, you can look the other way.  As for the secretary's parents, I bet they had money.  

 So, this title sounds like something trump would say. His anonymous "everyone says".  Well, Wisconsin had a primary yesterday.  The Democratic Socialist lost.  The headlines I saw this morning are all about the upset win.  Then, I look at the numbers and she only lost by a little over a 1,000.  Is that an upset?  Maybe for establishment Democrats.  I see a close race.  I still see the problems the establishment refuses to recognize.  People want change.  They do not want status quo and politicians trying to sing kum by ya with republicans who have refused to work with Democrats.  The party really needs to work on its strategy.  If they do not and do like they always do, they will turn off people.  They will vote for the next radical that has a crazy vision, even if it is all lies.  

 I saw the story that trump had to escape Turkey by a catering cart.  Now, was it a McDonald's cart?  He says he was escaping Iranians, but I'm wondering if he was just too hungering and lazy to walk on the plane.  So, they called McDonald's and arranged a pick up.  Doesn't he realize how weak this makes him?  I thought he was the "big" man who stood up to his enemies!  Nope, just another bunker dweller hiding from the public.  I guess he only stands tall when he organizes the situation!  

 You'd think we would have learned from Vietnam to beware of insurgent situations or other areas we know nothing about.  Iraq we had insurgency because we failed to learn about the situation of all the people and religions.  In Afghanistan, the people we helped deter the Russians knew how to deter the US as well.  Now Iran.  Iraq tried to take them over.  After many years, they gave up.  Israel and our country have done plenty to no avail.  Then we get someone who thinks that we can bomb them into compliance.  As you can see, it has failed.  If you think Iran will give up because of sanctions, you know nothing.  They know that the US will cry uncle before they will.  They live hardship.  It will be nothing to them.  One day, we will have educated people running the government again.  If we go into a conflict, hopefully, they will do the research.

 I made the mistake of buying a salad from WalMart three weeks ago.  I saw it was Taylor, but I thought it was not including the salad bowls.  My daughter paid for it.  Diarrhea for 3 to 4 days.  I stopped buying them.  I went to Aldi and she has been fine.  One thing I have noticed is that the salads at Walmart have a lot of yellow tag reductions.  Now there will be more with the latest news of salmonella.  Maybe instead of trying to sell it, even at a reduction, Walmart should just pull it and tell them to fix their problems.   

 I have caught the cooking bug lately.  Mainly because it cost so much to eat out.  Also, my wife has issues with the food not agreeing with her.  After some of the meals I have made, I have noticed that I do not feel bloated or get heartburn.  I think it is because of the cheap products these companies use to make their foods.  Yesterday, I made McRib copy cat sandwiches.  They were easy to make, everyone loved them, and not regret after eating them.  I did the same for spaghetti.  I made my own sauce and bought Italian spaghetti.  It tasted better and no regrets.  If eating out bothers you, look up the recipe on the internet.  Someone will have a recipe out there.  

 Today, my kids go back to school.  For that, I am glad.  I can imagine sitting around the house with nothing to do.  I wish I could spend more time at home during the summer.  It is my busiest time at work. Plus, it's Florida!  It's too hot to do anything outside.  Not to mention, everything is getting expensive.  Even the beaches, due to parking fees.  I still do not know why people come here during the summer.  You might say theme parks, but I will tell you they are hot and expensive.  You have to be upper class to go to most of them.  Unless you want to go into debt.  

 I love this time of year.  I get the urge to cook.  This morning I made an Apple Crumb donut.  I had found the recipe on Facebook.  It actually turned out.  Usually when I try to make crumbles, it does not turn out.  Up next, McRib sandwiches.  My wife loves it.  Of course McDonald’s only does it for special occasions.  I think the one I make will be better for me.  

 Get ready for more bogus cases against trump's perceived enemies!  The spineless politicians voted in his personal lawyer.  Now he can get paid by our tax dollars to still be his personal lawyer.  If Democrats thought this mid term was going to be hard, it just got harder.  Just imagine all the bogus investigations into vote "rigging" if a democrat or non trump pick gets elected.  I hope the states are ready to fight to protect voting.  This year will be important to vote.  It may not matter.  Musk is pledging to help.  He helped in the last election.  Now one of his kids moms is saying he rigged the election for trump and the republicans.  Who will investigate?  Spineless Democrats won't do it because of the Russia allegation from the first election.  Who will protect the American People!  I have no hope that our attorney general will do it.  He's trumps whipping boy and will do whatever he wants him to do...

 Seems like our politicians are giving our country away to the rich.  They have no spine to stand up for the American people.  Just watch, if one party loses power and the other actually uses or borrows a spine, watch the spineless come to life to defend the rich and their traitorous administration.  I bet there will be at least one Democrat to fight for trump and a couple will fight for status quo.  The two leaders will say wait two more years and hopefully we will regain the White House.  Others will be chastised for actually going after the waste and criminal laundering of our tax dollars into a few pockets.  This is the worst administration of my lifetime.  Not only that, these people below are just yes men for trump.  

 We have one of those electronic door locks.  When you close the door, the lock will engage after a second or two.  Someone left our house last night.  Let me describe our area.  It's rural to a point.  Up the road is civilization.  We have to worry about night critters and predators.  It was also storming.  One good gust of wind and the door will fly open.  That is exactly what happened.  The next morning it was discovered.  My wife checked the camera footage to make sure nothing came in the open door.  On the camera a black shape appeared and seem to disappear.  It could have been a raccoon.  I think it was too big to be the cat.  Luckily, nothing came in the door.  But my wife thinks it is other worldly.  It did not come in because it was not invited.  What did we do?  Did we buy a haunted house?  Stay tuned!

 I really want to see this.  I don't know when my break is coming.  I don't have to worry about competition knocking it out of theaters.  The new movies do not strike an interest for me.  A new generation love story and a raunchy comedy.  The comedy is based on a series and two other movies.  If I find a break this weekend, I my try to watch Obsession.  Someone told me that they liked it.  I know there are a couple of late summer movies coming.  I really don't care for another Jurassic Park rip off or another video game movie.  I was working at a theater when the first Street Fighter came out.  I just don't like movies based on a video game.  Maybe September will have some better movies.  

 I'm sitting at my computer listening to Youtube.  I am too cheap to buy any plan.  Maybe poor is a better term.  Then, McDonalds comes on with a cheery spokesperson.  She goes on about this great "value" meal.  It's only $8 dollars!  Can you believe it?  So, are they trying to tell us that is cheaper than a burger meal at Chili's or some other sit down restaurant.  When I look at "value" meals that used to be $3 to $4 dollars, I am now seeing close to $10.  A regular meal is closer to $20 at a fast food place.  The thought of spending that much of food of poor quality makes me sick.  I'd rather buy the ingredients and make a healthier version of the same thing I can buy.  They think there recipes are top secret.  Anyone can find a copy cat recipe on the internet.  I made spaghetti sauce and use Italian spaghetti the other day.  It did not make us feel bloated or sick.  I wonder why?  Well, I did l...

 Our weird Florida weather continues.  We have started getting daily rains.  This is what usually happens in May to June.  I wonder if hurricanes will start getting worse in October instead of September.  I am glad I did not start a garden this year.  I do not think it would have done well.  Either there would have been smaller and thinner yields of the plant would have baked in the sun.  I do have a plan to create a garden area with shade.  I have bought a couple of shades from Temu and some watering things.  Stay tuned.  I really need a green thumb.  

 I find collecting to be a scam.  I collected baseball cards, comics, posters, books, etc.  Now that they have aged, I look to sell them.  As I am finding out, the collectable market has put roadblocks in to prevent me from selling some things at a high price.  That is unless I pay some company hundreds of dollars to get rated.  Why should I pay a company to do what a person can clearly do themselves?   Why is it these companies can profit like this?  I think it's so the rich can buy these items off people cheap.  Then, they can get them "evaluated" and resell them at a higher price.  These people know that people that collect are not rich.  They collect as an investment hoping that one day their collectable will be worth something.  If I gave advice on collecting, I would say don't!  Just like the appraisal companies, it's a scam.  These appraisal companies are a joke.  You have to pay them hundreds of doll...

 The AIPAC woman lost her election.  I guess she should have explained to voters how she was going to help them versus sending money to another country.  Establishment Democrats don't get it.  They act like progressives are promising the world.  I don't see why our tax dollars should not benefit Americans.  What about free healthcare?  Stop making healthcare a capitalist cash crop.  If companies are given a chance of saving a life or letting a person die, they will say it is cheaper to let us die.  They do not care about people.  They care about bonuses.  Our money could be spent to make life better for Americans.  Instead we spend more than every country in the world on weapons.  That money buys politicians to keep the money flowing.  If you think AI is going to help, in America, companies are using it to save on employing people or just down right firing them.  Look at Disney.  They had one of the biggest ...

 So Sony says they will not continue their alternative Spider-Man movies.  Why?  Because viewers don't really want them.  I would beg to differ.  They would probably want them if they were not so bad.  They are obviously a set up for a bigger movie with Spider-Man.  These are supposed to be villains.  They seemed more like anti villains.  What were they thinking?  All of a sudden, these sort of good guys are going to get together to go after Spider-Man?  I didn't see that.  Luckily, I stayed away because their reputation was so bad.  Sony needs to create better stories and not AI looking crap.   

 When I was younger, my brother and I would attend the Boys Club.  It was fun.  We got to do things and it kept us from wandering Oceanside streets while my mom worked.  The would do trips to parks and baseball games.  I even got autographs one time.  Sometimes, they would do a sleepover at the club.  Those were fun.  They'd have food, games and movies.  I got to see some classics.  One movie I remember was called Shogun Assassin.  It was a Samurai exploitation movie.  It had some graphic violence.  What I did not know until later in life was that Shogun Assassin was a mixtape movie.  Some studio had taken this Japanese movie, of which there were multiple, and cut them down to one movie.  That movie series went under Lone Wolf and Cub.  It is the story of a Samurai whose family and master are killed.  He roams the land with his toddler son seeking revenge, while offering his services to people in need....

 My daughter has a plumbing fixation.  She listens to Youtube tutorials on what a plumber does.  I told her she needed a plumbing license for her to mess around with plumbing.  She asks for things like plumbers table and wax seals.  Unfortunately, she learned where the wax seal was located.  So, she kicked over the toilet to get to it.  We had to replace it and make it more secure.  Prior to that, it did not take much to knock it over.  I was thinking about that.  I decided to look up toy plumbing items.  They actually have thinks.  I guess it's for doll houses.  We can buy her mini toilets, sinks, etc.  Then, we can use them as a reward to do other things like taking her meds.  

 School is getting ready to start in America.  The GOP is welcoming kids by taking away their lunches, their free schools, etc.  Today I read that trump wants to do away with Head Start.  Why?   Well, he said it.  He likes stupid people.  For him, they are easier to control.  They believe his lies without question.  An educated person would question him, investigate his many crimes, and not put up with with holding the Epstein files.  The GOP is truly the party of the rich.  They are not the party of families.  They are not the party of fiscal responsibility.  They are the party of endless wars and enriching their rich donors, as wells as themselves!  At this rate, they want to turn the US into a Christian Taliban state guided by the laws of the bible.  Sounds like Christian Sharia!
