Peace on Earth was obviously just a fantasy.

Trump has the chance to kill woke and all its consequences stone dead.
Hopefully he'll do it.

Way too much tolerance in Western civilisation, so Poland sent it packing, all gone, bye bye.
Ah, great to live in Poland these days.
The President/Govt there doesn't care what anyone thinks about them, they're making no apologies for doing what their People want.
Trump could consult them for what works.

Michigan has a large Polish American population, with some estimates suggesting that there are 900,000 Polish Americans in the state. Macomb and Wayne Counties in Metro Detroit have the highest number of Polish immigrants, with Macomb County having almost 4,500 and Wayne County having 3,300 as of 2014.

Polish immigrants were attracted to Michigan's Copper Country and mining industry, and became a significant immigrant group in many important industries. Hamtramck, Michigan is considered a focal point of the Polish American community, and the Piast Institute is located there.

Some other cities with large Polish American populations include:

    New York City, New York
    Chicago, Illinois
    Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
    Milwaukee, Wisconsin
    Los Angeles, California
    Cheektowaga, New York
    Buffalo, New York

------

Pope John Paul II was from Poland, and he helped Poland to get their freedom from the USSR, and Lech Walesa and Solidarity also helped Poland to get their freedom.

And the bushy bushy blondes from the Beach Boys song might be Polish-Americans here in California.

Salute,

Tony V.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -  Nearly 200 absentee ballots somehow went uncounted in Wisconsin s liberal capital after the Nov. 5 election, prompting state election officials to launch an investigation Thursday into whether the city clerk broke the law...


Huh.  The Right Wing electoral fraud outrage machine is weirdly silent about this.  Usually it only takes a ketchup stain on a single ballot in Bumfaecal, Idaho to send them all to Defcon 4 and have Trump shouting fraud on Untruth Social.

A guy blew up a Tesla Cyber Truck in Las Vegas and committed suicide. He was a Green Barret. He blew up the vehicle in front of the Trump building. No damage was done to the building.

Of note, Nevada is all Cowboys like Texas and Montana and Wyoming, etc. There was the sad terrorist shooting during the music festival from a hotel window, but Vegas is safer now. Vegas is ran by the Italians and the Jews and the Cowboys. The Cops in Vegas are all Cowboys. And even the little old ladies in Vegas carry guns.

The terrorist lost on this one, he died for nothing, and he did not even scratch the Trump building. And I think they will put a planter in front of the building now, or a fountain, or something to protect the front of the building from future attacks.

The terrorists will not succeed on American Turf, and certainly not in Cowboy Country.

( Bambu, watch the movie "The Cowboy Way" starring Woody Harrelson and Keifer Sutherland. )

Salute,

On the issue of New Orleans, the crime has been high because of high unemployment, aside from the terrorist attacker who was killed by the police who may be tied to the attacker in Vegas. They were stationed at the same base.

On the issue of the crime, the people from Colombia can help by sending chocolate and coffee to New Orleans, the people can work roasting and grinding coffee, and they can make chocolates to sell, etc. Also, the poor refugees from Colombia can come to New Orleans, and Shakira and Sofia Vergara can open restaurants in New Orleans, etc. Kiwanis can also help in New Orleans, and the Catholic Church can help, etc. They can also do beautification in New Orleans and they can employ the people there to lay cobblestones and to do landscaping and to build fountains, etc.

Also, get the Police out of their cars and have them walk the beat in downtown New Orleans, etc. And the shops can all have security like they do here in Hollywood now, and the apartments can have doormen, etc.

And bring some new French immigrants to the French Quarter in New Orleans, give them a shot at the American Dream.

Also, New Orleans can have cannabis cafes like in Amsterdam, with live music, etc, and they can serve the Colombian coffee and chocolate at the cannabis clubs, etc.

And they can put a new fresh coat of paint on New Orleans.

Salute,

Tony V.

Mayor Bass just cut the red tape today to get the Homeless Veterans into housing faster. I suggested some RV Parks in the desert such as at Del Sur Gardens, and along Sierra Highway, and in Acton, and also in the Mountains in Lake Hughes. I also told her of the need for Libraries, and swimming pools, and tennis courts, etc, and they need to have 7 Eleven 24 hour convenience stores, etc. Then the Vets can sign up for nice apartments and get on a waiting list, etc. They can barbecue wonderful feasts and they can drink margaritas at the RV Parks and just live like everyday is a vacation while they wait for permanent housing. They can also join Kiwanis International, etc. Doctors, Psychiatrists, and Dentists, are also important, and Pharmacies.

People can plant trees in the desert, and they can do nice landscaping, along with the swimming pools, and tennis courts, and libraries, etc, and 7 Eleven stores, etc, they can make nice RV Parks for the formerly homeless. Right now the streets of Los Angeles are lined with motor homes and travel trailers that can be towed out to the desert, etc, to RV Parks in the desert where the people can live.

And of course there is a need for cheap hostels in Los Angeles, and cheap sober living homes, etc.

Mayor Bass is doing a good job, and she cares.

Salute,

Tony V.

 :o
Good stuff, DJ.  Enjoyed the Trump appointee depictions.  You can expect near infinite quantities of cartoon material in the next four years. 

As for what's in Luigi Mangione's head, who knows - but I can imagine it is very Ted Kazinski like.

Republicans - Heads we won, tails you cheated!


About 6 in 10 Republicans said they have a great deal or quite a bit of confidence that the votes in last yeats presidential election were counted correctly nationwide, according to the poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. That is a sharp rise from about 2 in 10 Republicans who were confident in an AP-NORC poll in October. And about two-thirds of Republicans in the new survey said they were confident in their states vote count, up from about 4 in 10 before the election.

On the issue of Vermont, Vermont can help to make the world a better place. Vermont is only 300 miles away from New York City, and the Mentally Ill, and the Abused Women, and the Foster Youth, and the Homeless Veterans, and whoever needs help can go to Vermont to get help. And Bernie Sanders is in Vermont. Vermont also has communes, and hippies.

It is better for one to get well in a nice garden while listening to Opera as opposed to being locked in a mental institution. Vermont can have Wellness Centers with Gardens, and Mental Health Centers, and Mental Hospitals with Gardens, etc.

For the Foster Youth, they can have working farms with products they can sell to New York City such as Eggs, Milk, and Cheese, etc. They can have libraries on the farms, and schools, etc.

The homeless of all sorts can live and work on communes in Vermont, and they can be helped there, they can get well there.

They can all read "On Becoming a Person" by Carl Rogers, etc.

And they can read and write poetry, etc.

Bernie can be on the cover of Time magazine instead of Trump.

And Bernie can teach Governor Newsom, etc.

And they can all learn from the Wellness Center in Orange, and from the Mental Health Association in Santa Ana.

The best school for Psychologists and Psychiatrists is San Diego State University.

Salute,

Tony V.

Reading comprehension really helps.


Republicans lost in 2020 and spent the next four years trying to overturn the vote, trying to violently overthrow the government and throwing multiple scores of shit fits.
They swore the election system was terrible.
Until they won.

My friend Shirley McCracken died, may she rest in peace. Shirley picked me up to go to Kiwanis meetings with her when I joined Kiwanis, and she was Mayor Pro Tem, when 9/11/2001 happened then she was the Mayor of Anaheim, and she handled the crisis here in Anaheim. She also was on California's Gold with Huell Howser when he did a show about the Water System here in Anaheim. Shirley volunteered with the Key Club and Kiwanis, and she was also the Catholic Woman of the Year, along with other honors. Shirley was a wonderful Christian woman who helped a lot of people, and she was a hero here in Anaheim, may she rest in peace.

Salute,
