We all should defend free speech in America

Speech is power, speech is to persuade, to convert, to compel

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

It’s been a week since my last blog post and it’s hard to decide where to even begin. First, I’m going to say that I’ve been challenging the Dem/liberal media spin information war since 1998 – that’s the truth. It’s been 25 long years. On July 7th I posted a thread on X, which I ‘m going to type it out here , even though I’m including the link – just in case my X posts disappear at some point. I’ve had other online messages of mine disappear online over the years, since the Clinton impeachment. Here’s the link: https://x.com/susan_heward/status/1809907361814806706

Here’s the text:

Many Americans probably have no clue about the seriousness of having a POTUS in the Oval Office, with advancing cognitive decline, holding the office. The President is also the CINC. He’s the person who leads our military and has the ultimate control of our nuclear arsenal.

It was one thing to have an Edith Wilson, right after WWI, it’s another, when America today, according to our own FBI and intel officials, have stated we are in a very complex and dangerous threat environment.

Since 1999, I committed myself to expose the corrupt Democrat spin information war. I’m an ordinary American. I don’t know any important people and live in GA. During the Clinton impeachment scandal, I unintentionally became a target to silence.

My late husband was an active duty soldier in 1999 and I believe a retired general was recruited to silence me, when pretty new to the internet, I wandered onto the internet and started posting comments on the politics Excite message boards.

My husband served under that general during Desert Storm and respected him. That general was a brigade commander and his wife was another Hillary or Jill – wielding all the power of her husband’s position.

During Desert Storm we were in Germany.

Due to my husband being a First Sergeant, I was the family support group leader for his company. The company commander was single.

Things are trying when solider deploy, many with young wives, kids, lots of problems, but being in a foreign country compounds them.

I had some run-ins with that brigade commander’s wife during Desert Storm, regarding family support matters.

The Army leaves a rear-detachment commander in charge when a unit deploys. A smart commander appoints his worst to that position and takes his best to war.

Ours was a LTC. I called him once about an issue. He told me he wasn’t the rear-detachment commander, that was some major.

The brigade commander’s wife, on the other hand, had no problem taking charge – even things that were official Army matters.

She and I had some run-ins. She called me once and told me that she was going to have to report me to her husband and tell him I wasn’t cooperating. I refused to go along with her dictates and told her the Army has rules and I was following them.

I am a rules person.

As all sorts of things started to happen, I wrote letters to my husband. I decided to write letters to my husband’s company commander to inform him about what was going on too, because it’s important for morale that soldiers know their families are safe back home.

I thought he should have a head’s up. Years later I realized those letters had made their way to DOD [DA] after Desert Storm and caused a ripple. Those letters were rather snarky and not flattering accounts of that brigade commander’s wife or many family support situations.

Then during impeachment in 1999, I believe that brigade commander, by then a retired general, (and Dem general) was recruited to try to shut me up.

I can’t prove it and am not going to go into details, because the important thing is this current crisis.

What’s happening now is about more than an election, it’s about all of us – each and every American citizen could be at risk, because many people believed they didn’t have to play by the rules and that it’s okay to use any means necessary to win.

I see people on the right on here wanting apologies or recognition that they got the story right or people obsessed with polls and the partisan fervor. To defeat this spin information war, expose the wholesale public corruption, and protect our Constitution will take all of us.

If you recognize the seriousness of a CINC with advanced cognitive decline & an unknown circle running the White House, then please look to people trying to expose the scandal, not spin it sway [away] and cover it up. Please, put ego aside, share information, work together.

We are all Americans.

Back in 2013 I wrote my story messages of mhere on my blog and it’s still on my home page. All of the people named are real people. mhere was my user name on the Excite message boards during the Clinton impeachment. It was a joke of sorts, because mir in Russian means peace and I have always been a pretty strident Cold War warrior mentality, but I’ve always dreamed of a more peaceful world.

I believe I was confronting Clinton spinmeisters on those Excite message boards, as the Clinton spinmeisters started going scorched earth mode in 1998 – doing exactly what they’re doing now – aggressive spin word messaging barrages across all of liberal media – except back then it was ranting about “sex, sex, sex” and a prominent law professor showing up on cable news nightly to argue that Bill Clinton lying about sex under oath wasn’t a crime, because everybody lies about sex.

Granted things are more sophisticated now with social media platforms, stealth editing online to make stories disappear, algorithms used to depress flow of information, shadow banning people and other deceptive means to control information in America. As I argued on those Excite message boards, my intent was to counter bullies, who were trying to drown out dissenting opinions with their aggressive spin word tactics on those message boards. Then I noticed that some of my lines from those message boards were being borrowed by actual right-wing pundits in the media in the spin war being played out.

I believe that I was tracked down during that process and that they came across my husband’s Desert Storm brigade commander, who hates me. I know he hates me – after Desert Storm there was a family get-together and he and his wife were walking past me and my husband and kids, His wife made a point of saying, hello to me and her husband gave me an angry glare that scared me honestly.

It was years later at another Army post where a woman (paid government employee) involved in Army family support started trashing the wife of a brigade commander’s wife, who had just left. I told her I knew this lady during Desert Storm. This brigade commander’s wife had been my husband’s Desert Storm battalion commander’s wife (petitesouthernbelle) – who stood up to that Desert Storm brigade commander’s wife (I named her QueenoftheRock). This woman told me she was friends with the QueenoftheRock. Then this woman told me about some wife’s letters that had created quite a stir after Desert Storm. That’s when I realized my husband’s company commander had turned those letters in with the after-action reporting. The Army does after-action reports, so the Army can learn from mistakes and build on things that worked well. The US Army has a lessons learned approach.

My late husband was not into politics and he didn’t pay any attention to the politics around the Army. He was always just concerned about his soldiers and the mission. He trusted his Desert Storm company commander, battalion commander and that brigade commander and in no universe could he have imagined that brigade commander wishing me harm.

The events in messages of mhere, to the best of my recollection, began in the fall of 1998 and ended in early 1999.

It’s fine if you decide I’m just some crazy person online, but I urge you to be prepared for an intensification of this Dem/liberal media spin information war, which goes way beyond this November election. It’s about controlling information in America and deciding who can speak publicly and who can’t. There’s epic abuse of power, abuse of government resources and information (especially within the FBI and our intel agencies) to aid and abet the Dem/liberal media spin war effort. There are scores upon scores of former top government officials willing to sign on to these corrupt Dem spin war efforts (51 former intelligence officials claim Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinformation). During impeachment with that attack on me, I strongly suspect some active duty people and Army assets were employed.

Fast forward to 2017 and the Obama administration set into motion the development of a massive federal government/civilian contractor effort to develop a “cognitive security” apparatus to ostensibly combat dis/misinformation, as they were leaving the White House in 2017.

Americans will have to open their eyes to this looming threat to our free speech rights and to the vast corruption. Then they’ll have to decide if this is the kind of America they want to live in.

This goes way beyond partisan politics. I was a homemaker, who’s never owned a firearm, and I was attacked in my own home during the Clinton impeachment. And yes, I’m still going to continue speaking out about this abuse of power and corrupt Dem/liberal media spin information war, as long as I can.

Pace of dramatic news events keeps accelerating

Lately, there are so many big political news stories breaking in America that it’s hard to keep up with all the details, let alone calmly and quietly analyze them.

June 27, 2024: While it may seem like a long time ago, considering all the news media spin cycles and big political news events in the past few weeks, but the Trump-Biden debate was on June 27, 2024 – not even a month ago.

June 6, 2024: From bad night to condition vs. episode spin attempts, then the July 6, 2024, New York Post revelation that a top Parkinson’s expert from Walter Reed visited the White House earlier this year and met with President Biden’s personal physician: President Biden’s physician met with Parkinson’s disease specialist in White House.

June 8, 2024: Denials and more obfuscation followed the news that it was 8 visits to the White House: Parkinson’s Expert Visited the White House Eight Times in Eight Months.

June 13, 2024: Former President Trump survived an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, PA. Here’s an AP timeline – A timeline of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

Last week was the RNC Convention

June 17, 2024: President Biden tested positive for COVID in Las Vegas and flew home to Delaware to recover. He has not been seen in public since last Wednesday – Biden tests positive for Covid-19 and will self-isolate in Delaware, White House says.

June 21, 2024: President Biden announced he is dropping out of the 2024 race via a letter posted on X. No video announcement or public appearance – just a letter posted on X. President Joe Biden drops out of 2024 presidential race.

June 22. 2024, The director of the USSS, Kimberley Cheatle is testifying in front of the House Oversight committee about the attempted assassination of President Trump.

Still no sighting of President Biden, but VP Kamala Harris is busily trying to assert herself as the potential Democrat presidential nominee. There are reports about the strangeness and unexpected nature of Biden’s decision – WH staff was unaware, campaign staff had no notice either. Something is very wrong here, because none of this makes sense and smells like something not above board is going on. I don’t want to venture down a lot of conspiratorial rabbit holes, so I’ll leave it at – I don’t believe we’ve been given the full story with Biden dropping out of the 2024 race.

Here’s from minutes ago, a Bloomberg reporter:

I feel like we should know more about the health of President Biden, both past months and years and most definitely today. Is he really okay and did he really agree to that letter posted on X?

This feels very off-kilter.

It’s time to mainstream emergency preparedness

Over the weekend former president, Donald Trump, was shot at a rally in Butler, PA. A rally attendee died trying to protect his family from bullets flying. The Secret Service failed in a shocking way to protect a former US president and all the security efforts failed to keep rally attendees safe.

Conspiracy theories on the left and right immediately took on a life of their own, but I think this City Prepping video hones in on the more important issue, beyond the politics – we came close to an event that could have triggered major civil unrest. We all need to make sure our homes are stocked with an adequate emergency food and water supply. Situations can change in an instant, as we saw over the weekend. Now would be a good time to calmly talk to family and loved ones about this important topic.

A week ago on X, I shared City Prepping’s three week emergency food supply guide:

There’s no need to panic or go into debt on a massive shopping spree, just start seriously assessing how much food, water and basic supplies you have on hand, in case there is some sort of serious disruption in this chaotic time we’re living in. Leading up to this election in November isn’t only about domestic chaos. America’s adversaries would find a time of heightened American divides as a vulnerability to exploit. How many times do officials have to warn you about increasing attempted attacks on our most critical infrastructure, particularly our power grid, before you think you should prepare, as best you can? I sincerely urge you to start working to beef up your emergency food and water supply.

Many people do not pay attention to the news at all, while many others pay too much attention to every detail of the news and spend way too much online scrolling and clicking. getting immersed in all the political drama. I’m trying to take some breaks from online political drama. It’s important to keep in mind we’re always being manipulated by social media algorithms to keep funneling info to us that keeps us viewing and participating in this drama. I’m trying to devote more time to my own home and personal preparedness.

We can’t change anything that’s happening in the news, but we do have the power to make sure our families can carry on basic functioning, no matter what crisis befalls us.

Here are two book recommendations, one non-fiction, the other fiction to get you thinking about the seriousness of an extended power outage or grid down situation. This isn’t a situation like the power’s out for several hours or a few days and then everything gets back to normal. I didn’t understand that until I read these two books. First, Ted Koppel, a fixture on TX news for decades, wrote Lights Out: A Cyberattack, A Nation Unprepared, Surviving the Aftermath in 2015. This book opened my eyes to how devastating this situation would be. The second book is a 2009 fictional novel, One Second After, by William R. Forstchen.

Being prepared for emergencies used to be part of our American mainstream culture, not treated as something weirdos and apocalyptic wackos engaged in. It’s time to bring emergency preparedness into the mainstream again, where it’s considered a prudent and practical part of our lives.

Note: 7/17/2024 – 4:45 pm – I just came across this video and think this is very timely information:

Dem/liberal media spin war finally hit an iceberg

American news media underwent a seismic shift since the 2024 Presidential Debate on June 27, 2024. Very quickly, top Democrats, like former presidents, Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, along with many other prominent Democrats came out and declared that President Biden’s terrible debate performance was just “a bad night.” The liberal news media took that talking point and ran with it.

This Democrat spin messaging led to more X spin war battles and slowly, because Democrat spin mouthpieces on X weren’t able to divert their battle back to more Trump derangement allegations, well, all sorts of information has begun pouring out. The liberal news media has grudgingly begun investigating and doing their job, of looking into Biden’s health, lies and corruption. Most of that liberal news media adversarial reporting on Biden is in furtherance of top Democrats now deciding that Biden is likely to lose in November and he’s going to damage down ballot Democrat candidates. They want to ditch him on the 2024 ticket.

On July 2, 2024, Former Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi appeared on a cable news show for an interview, and launched a new Democrat talking point, that there’s a difference between whether Biden’s alarming “bad night” debate performance was just an “episode,” not some “condition to be concerned about. Here’s a report from NBC: Nancy Pelosi: It’s a ‘legitimate question’ whether Biden’s debate performance was a ‘condition’ or just an ‘episode’

Then last weekend, the NY Post, the same news source that broke the Hunter Biden laptop story in October 2020, which powerful Dem elites got banned on social media and had 51 former intelligence sign a letter insisting was Russian disinformation, broke this story:

President Biden’s physician met with Parkinson’s disease specialist in White House

This past week has been a deluge of information pouring out, as top Democrats are leaking like crazy to pressure Biden to drop out of the 2024 presidential race. They show no concern about having a CINC with serious cognitive decline, only about winning in November.

As these Dem leaks pour out, Chuck Todd belatedly reports that he knew two years ago:

That brings me to this reality:

Here’s a tweet of Jake Tapper, who dutifully ran the Dem spin attacks, including the 2016 Clinton campaign dirty trick – bogus Steele dossier, is now running dirt on Biden. I believe it’s to aid top Dems in pressuring Biden to step aside and not some newfound integrity, but that’s just my opinion:

Mollie Hemingway has written extensively on the liberal media working with this WH messaging:

On July 11, 2024, the DailyWire reported: Biden Has Not Met With Full Cabinet Since October 2023; Members Uncertain Of His Condition: Report.

Here’s John Kirby speaking to Biden’s ability to handle calls in the middle of the night. He claims two years ago Biden took a call in the middle of the night… and returned it at 8 am. Seriously, he said 8 am.

Most people on the right knew all along that this White House was a Potemkin village since that bizarre Biden in the Basement 2020 campaign. Everything since then has been endless smoke and mirrors to cover-up Biden’s “condition.” And now with Obama trying to pressure Biden to step aside, all of those who believed it was Obama pulling the strings, should be wary, because it’s now looking like Jill and Hunter have way more influence than Obama or Biden’s cabinet officials, who have been just fine running the executive branch however they choose, while their boss signs off on things, which his close aides hand him for signatures… The liberal media and elites finally going public with concerns about Biden’s fitness, regaling us with incidents from months and years ago, speaks to how dishonest, disingenuous, and morally bankrupt they really are:

This scandal goes way beyond a bad debate performance – it’s widespread public corruption, that is breathtaking in scope. I’ve been trying to expose the Dem/liberal media spin information war since 1999 and refuse to get sucked into the November presidential race drama and all the nonstop polling frenzies. I believe exposing this level of corruption is more critical than any election. Our FBI and intelligence agencies have been corrupted, in service to Dem/liberal media spin war operations and almost all our institutions have been corrupted too.

In the 2020 election 51 former top intelligence officials signed a letter that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation and it wasn’t until this year when Hunter Biden was convicted of a gun purchase violation in Delaware that an FBI official testified under oath that the laptop was not Russian disinformation and they had it since 2019. The 51 intel letter happened in 2020 and no one from the FBI said a word, even though they had that laptop:

I’m not getting too optimistic, but finally after all these years it looks like this corrupt Dem/liberal media spin information hit an iceberg and their Titanic of lies and corruption is taking on water.

Who knows how many lifeboats are on board, but personally I hope all these corrupt liars go down with the ship.

Dem projection hits again

The Democrats’ spin word games usually end up being weird projection. When the Steele dossier was dumped claiming Trump was colluding with the Russians, Dems kept asserting the information was “from sources close to the Kremlin.” If you relied on sources close to the Kremlin for dirt on your political opponent, that would be colluding with the Russians.

So, here we are with all the revelations about Biden and a Parkinson’s expert from Walter Reed visiting the WH 8 times in recent months. Karin Jean-Pierre has got to be the worst press secretary ever. She kept repeating stupid explanations, that made no sense, as usual. This scandal will build, no matter how much Team Biden and Democrats try to get past it. Biden’s condition will continue to worsen.

I came across this Washington Post story from October 2020, as Democrats were running the Biden in the basement campaign…

I suspect Biden had this serious neurological condition for years. I suspect they were running this story accusing Trump of hiding his health problems, while covering up Biden’s serious neurological condition during the 2020 campaign. I didn’t know exactly what was wrong with the Biden in the Basement campaign, but it alarmed me so much I voted for Trump, despite being turned off by a lot of his behavior, I supported most of his policies.

As a reminder, Dems pulled this same thing with Mueller heading the Trump-Russia investigation. Mueller’s name was bandied about from May 2017 to March 2019 as such a respected person, trustworthy choice – former FBI director, blah, blah blah. Then when Mueller appeared before Congress to testify about his special counsel investigation, the day before his office requested that his aide be allowed to sit next to him. Mueller had serious memory problems when he testified about his report and it was obvious he wasn’t running that investigation. There was no investigation or accountability for that fraud.

Unless he does something totally crazy, I will be voting for Trump in November and I hope more of this Democrat wholesale public corruption will finally be exposed. This Democrat ruthless lawlessness and abuse of power has been growing by leaps and bounds since the Clintons. Dr. Jill high on a power trip feels like we’re back to 1998 with Hillary clinging to the WH drapes. That alone caused a shiver up my spine.

I am praying for America.

“Sharp and focused but sometimes confused and forgetful”

I hate to write this blog post on the 4th of July, but feel like I want to get this off my chest, since I have been trying to expose the corrupt Dem/liberal media spin information war since 1999.

Many people buy into the way the liberal media and Democrats frame issues, like after famed Watergate reporter, Carl Bernstein, who also is a rabid Trump-hater, sat down with Anderson Cooper on Monday, moments after Biden gave a 4 minute speech to try to launch a “new management” PR effort. Bernstein was relating 15-20 episodes his sources reported in the past year. Other reporters are reporting things they’ve known about for a year or more too. They all knew and kept it quiet, but they’re trying to pretend this is some big breaking news that they just found out about. And if they weren’t aware of Biden’s cognitive decline from his bumbling/stumbling wandering around on stage, well, then they need to find a new job other than journalism. Since 2020, with that Biden campaign in the basement, this Dem/liberal media cover-up has been going on, while our illustrious liberal media regaled us constantly about Biden and his ice cream flavors…

Then there’s how Dems and the liberal media drop spin words that the liberal media (and usually conservative pols and media gets duped into adopting too) – like Nancy Pelosi came out after Bernstein’s reporting to spin some idiocy about whether these 15-20 incidents are “episodes” as Bernstein described them or a “condition”… Anyone with those episodes of freezing/memory issues isn’t fit to be POTUS and the real question is anyone who had a family member with those “episodes” would insist on medical tests to find out what was causing them – the “condition.”

It’s all spin word nonsense, that Dems and their liberal media friends run with and Americans buy into. Powerful Dem Congressman, James Clyburn, came out and was talking about a “mini-primary,” as a way for Dems to figure out their 2024 ticket. Here’s Mark Levin explaining what that new “mini-primary” really is:

The largest spin effort is to frame this as about the Dem 2024 ticket, when the obvious question, as more and more Dems unleash this Dem media spin effort to pressure Biden to drop out of the race, is they have exposed that Biden isn’t fit to be POTUS now and he’s certainly not up to the job until inauguration day in January 2025. They are thinking they can switch their ticket and still keep Biden in the Oval Office and with enough spin, they can con the American people into buying this.

Last night AP ran this headline on X:

We are quickly barreling into a constitutional crisis. This Dem/liberal media cover-up of Biden’s condition is a huge scandal – not just some story about the Democrats 2024 ticket. None of the liberal media have uttered the words 25th Amendment, but instead they’re running some powerful Dems’ spin game to pressure Biden to step aside, because he’s now a political liability to their 2024 chances. When Trump was president the liberal media had a different position:

That was on June 28th and it’s now July 4th and we’re being led around with spin word games about a “mini-primary” and who’s going to be on the Dems 2024 ticket. We should be asking who all knew and when did they know it.

Biden has been relying on note cards and a teleprompter. The debate left him stranded without those, and even with them he’s struggling. My fear is what on earth will they try if his dementia reaches the point he can’t read the note cards or teleprompter and then who on earth is calling the shots within the WH. I say this because my late husband, who loved to read, did get to where he couldn’t read, couldn’t follow TV show plots or even do simple tasks in the proper order. America can’t allow Hunter Biden to be running the Oval Office.

I would like to be hopeful that this corrupt spin information war might be self-destructing, but I am very concerned it might leave America in a very precarious position in the world. America’s adversaries are watching this Democrat political circus, that our liberal media participated in all along.

Biden 2024 being knifed from within

The past few days of mainstream media coverage fully-exposed how completely the liberal “mainstream” media is really just part of the Democratic party messaging operation. To be clear FOX News and conservative media are definitely not unbiased either. Last night FOX had former Trump press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany and former Trump Counselor to the President for Trump, Kellyanne Conway, guest hosting two primetime hour shows The difference is the “mainstream” media has been portrayed as being objective and unbiased and they believe themselves to be beacons of the truth, when in reality they’ve become just Democrat spin mouthpieces.

What’s playing out now is another Dem spin operation, as the liberal “mainstream” media started reporting on Biden’s decline post-debate. Biden’s cognitive decline can’t be covered up anymore, so for a couple days Dems tried running a “bad night” spin messaging effort, while liberal media hyped all the Trump lies in the debate, to try to move past the issue of Biden’s condition. That effort failed and polls started indicating that Biden is losing more ground to Trump.

Top Democrats and their liberal media friends don’t want Trump winning, so now they’ve pulled the plug on Biden.

Yesterday there was a divide still playing out on liberal news media, as some were still trying to blab about how Biden needed new management efforts, while other Democrats were plotting and leaking to force Biden out. On July 1st:

7:45 pm – Biden was rolled out and read remarks for 4 minutes from a teleprompter – the new “management” launch.

8:00 pm – on CNN Anderson Cooper had Carl Bernstein, famed Watergate reporter, on while Bernstein stuck the knife into the Biden presidency, as gently as he could. Bernstein “reported” on 15-20 episodes that Biden’s had similar to his debate freezing moments/blank staring over the past year and a half.

That opened the floodgates and all of a sudden liberal media is reporting on all these incidents like it’s breaking news, yet these are the same crack journalists who carried water for Dems dismissing the Hur investigation and report about Biden’s inability to answer questions and impaired memory.

We’re just being played again, as the liberal media is trying to recover credibility, while they work with top Democrats in moving past Joe Biden.

A few interesting tidbits about Biden’s “episodes,” as famed journalist, Bernstein, described them is let’s look at what was known about Biden’s medical history. I posted this on X yesterday:

The first sentence in that 2008 CBS article is this: “While John McCain’s past battles with skin cancer has received a great deal of scrutiny, Joe Biden’s near-fatal aneurysms in 1988 have yet to come under the spotlight.”

The article goes on:

“In his book “Promises to Keep,” Biden says that he was unconscious for over four hours before he woke up in a hospital in Wilmington, Del. The senator was told that an artery was leaking blood into his brain and he was given his last rites by a priest. He was transferred to Walter Reed Medical Center where it was discovered that he had a second aneurysm on the other side of his brain.”

“Biden immediately underwent a four-and-a-half-hour operation to remove the leaking aneurysm. He had a second surgery in May to repair the other aneurysm and fully recovered after taking a seven-month leave from his seat as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.” https://www.cbsnews.com/news/bidens-medical-history-not-scrutinized/

So, we’re supposed to believe that Biden, with a medical history of two brain aneurysms, hasn’t had brain scans or diagnostic testing for these “freezing” episodes and other alarming symptoms? Yesterday, the WH press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, insisted Biden just had a cold during the debate… Just ask yourself, if your loved one had this medical history and all these “episodes,” wouldn’t you insist on more testing to find out what’s going on?

I am convinced Biden won’t be the 2024 Democratic Party nominee and the odds are increasing that he might not finish out his current term, as more details about his actual cognitive function and condition become known. If Biden’s not fit to run for re-election due to his current condition, then he’s not fit to be POTUS now.

The prospect of Kamala Harris as president, even for a few months, fills me with dread, but it’s hard for a POTUS to have any credibility on competence, when Democrats and people inside the Biden WH now have their long knives out for Biden, because they don’t want to lose in 2024. There’s no concern or talk about having a cognitively impaired old man having control of nuclear football, being CINC and having the POWER to make the most important decisions in America – it’s all about the polls.

Jill Biden is on the cover of Vogue this month and over the weekend, while reportedly having family discussions about whether Biden stays in the race, they were having a photo shoot for this Vogue cover… Jill blabs about how power feels in this Vogue piece. The article began with Jill Biden talking about what power feels like:

“If you want to know what power feels like, try to get yourself driven around in a motorcade. Flashing police chaperone lights form a perimeter as you blaze down an empty highway, waiting cars backed up on entry ramps as you pass. It’s as if the world is holding its breath. For you. Also, rules don’t apply: On a cool spring day, driving down suburban Minneapolis side streets, we run red lights and whip round curves so fast I can barely take in the commonplace American view. Tract housing, big box stores, churches, office parks, semi-​industrial no-man’s-land. Finally, we arrive at our destination, Nine Mile Brewing, in Bloomington, Minnesota. “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go,” commands someone—a Secret Service agent, maybe—as the motorcade pulls into a loading dock. Politics, I will come to discover in the next few days, involves a lot of backstage spaces: service entrances, freight elevators, places where Very Important People can slip in and out of events unnoticed. Politics also involves a lot of comically fast walking—to wit, at Nine Mile, an entourage of 30 or so are noisily hustling to follow a trim, blond woman in a pristine white suit as she strides nonchalantly past clanging, gurgling brewing vats, aiming for a back office. This is my first glimpse of first lady Dr. Jill Biden: Exiting the sealed chamber of power into the middle of America, a vision of calm amid utter cacophony.” https://www.vogue.com/article/first-lady-jill-biden-august-2024-cover-interview

To compound problems, yesterday there is reporting that Hunter Biden is now attending WH meetings with Biden and at his father’s side, since returning to the White House on Monday:

Our liberal media is a national disgrace. And this situation with how Democrats get Biden out of the White House might become a huge national embarrassment with trying to get this corrupt family out of the White House. Back in the 90s, there were jokes about Hillary clinging to the White House drapes, but now we have Dr. Jill high on what power feels like, Hunter, who is facing more criminal charges and sold out to hostile foreign countries and a cognitively-impaired old man, who some insiders say is mean and blows up a lot.

The Democrat/liberal spin information war has crashed and burned, but never fear they’ll try to emerge from the wreckage and rant about Trump, Trump, Trump soon.

July 3, 2024, 9:10 am – wanted to add this prediction – On Monday Carl Bernstein was sent out to stick the knife in Biden, as gently as possible… this info is from people who love him, blah, blah, blah… On Friday, Biden is scheduled to sit down for an interview with former Clinton press secretary, now at ABC News, George Stephanopoulos. I predict Stephanopoulos has been tasked with snuffing out Biden 2024, with dignity… nothing bloody and messy. We’re always being played by the media – left and right – so be skeptical about all new sources and do some research on your own.

The biggest political miracle in years is that so far Trump has not gotten in the way of Biden’s post-debate demise. He’s let the Biden fall-out dominate the headlines without trying to get the liberal media spotlight back on himself. I never believed Trump had the ability for strategic patience, but here we are.

The 25th Amendment should be under consideration

After thinking about the situation with our presidential race, almost all the debates center on polling and the November election, but I’m more concerned about today and the window between now and January, when the next president gets sworn into office. Presently, we have a president, who obviously has impaired cognitive capacity, so first Americans deserve to know where medically he is assessed with his dementia. There are stages to dementia and professionals can assess a patient’s abilities through various testing – brain scan and various diagnostic testing. Has he had brain scans and other cognitive tests? If not, then why haven’t his loved ones had that done? My late husband had brain scans and other diagnostic assessments with performing various tasks.

The issue isn’t about polls and who wins in November, it’s that we need a functioning president now and every day. The true state of President Biden’s weak condition was exposed for all the world to see during that 90 minutes. Trump promised to take tougher actions against our adversaries during that debate.

Our adversaries won’t care one iota about all the spin war games and polling garbage. Stepping into our adversaries shoes, you should be asking yourself if you would see the window of opportunity to take more hostile actions against the US and our interests from now until the next POTUS is sworn into office in January or wait until possibly Trump is elected?

Watching Team Biden and Dem/liberal media spin games since that debate, our adversaries know that this crowd is only concerned with polls and their spin word battles. Trump’s team and his supporters are focused on winning in November too.

All of our elected officials in Congress and the White House swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. Safeguarding American citizens and our troops all over the globe should take precedence over the partisan politics. There should be some adults in the room in Washington who understand the national security risk with a mentally incapacitated president and a volatile election year.

My position is that the 25th Amendment should be under consideration, because we have troops around the world in harm’s way now and every day. And it’s reckless to have someone with dementia entrusted with the nuclear football.

Having said that, I believe it would be prudent for every American to work on becoming better prepared for emergencies. I’m not suggesting panic-buying, but assessing basic supplies – food, water, medical supplies, personal security needs, etc. Don’t rely on this crowd in Washington or “the experts” to have a plan to keep you safe, that’s for sure

After watching that debate, do you sleep better knowing President Biden is supposed to take those 3 am calls?

Despite Biden’s “bad night” the Dem spin info war continues

So, I watched the presidential debate last night and want to jot down my thoughts. This debate isn’t about who won and who lost, because the truth is the American people lost a great deal with Biden’s disastrous performance. The whole world saw that we have a sitting president whose cognitive decline is to the point that if he were our loved one, we’d be afraid to leave him home alone for a day, let alone hand him the nuclear codes. That’s the reality and it’s been the reality for a long time now, despite all the dem/liberal media spin cover-up.

My main concern isn’t about November, it’s about the days, weeks, and months before the election and how America’s adversaries read this provocative display of weakness – a POTUS who isn’t up to 3 am calls and a cabal of aides and Dem powerbrokers who have some hidden working arrangement outside of the chain of command.

It’s been obvious to many people, myself included, that Biden had some degree of cognitive decline since that bizarre Biden in the basement 2020 campaign. Of course, his handlers used COVID as a mask (excuse the pun), to shield him from media and public scrutiny. Then we’ve had three and half years of this bizarre Biden spending more time in DE than at the White House and having only a few hours a day in the office.

Once again, the foremost question is who is really running this White House and close on the heels of that is does anyone want the Biden they saw last night to have the nuclear codes or making life and death decisions for our troops?

The lies spoken by Trump and Biden won’t really matter much, because the optics were devastating for Biden and this debate exposed much bigger lies – the Dem/liberal media spin information war lies. Trump looked physically and mentally competent last night and the side-by-side images of him and Biden showed Biden looking confused, lost and he even had his mouth hanging open at times.

His handlers have carried out this charade by controlling Biden’s public appearances, giving him note cards, or having him read a teleprompter. Last night his handlers and his wife sent him out there alone – without any of the memory aids he relies on. It was like taking away the walker from an elderly person, who relies on it to avoid falls. It was cruel and elder abuse, but overriding that, this man is the POTUS and in charge of life and death decisions that could impact all of us..

Despite the Dem/liberal media panic last night about Biden’s debate debacle and despite the calls for him to step aside, many of the big guns are already regrouping and launching new spin talking points. The Biden team has said he won’t step aside. That means Dems and their liberal media friends will quickly try to move past this debate and create another crisis or Trump scandal as a diversion. Their corrupt spin information war will drag on…

I am deeply concerned about America’s national security in the coming days, weeks, and months.

November feels a long way away.

Debate blather vs. real life

Living in a highly partisan America leaves me sad sometimes. Things aren’t hopeless, but our politics might be. Tonight the stage is set for a presidential debate, before either party has officially held their convention and selected a candidate. That alone seems surreal and it’s going to ramp up the partisan craziness before we even get to the party conventions.

I don’t expect anything to be fair or honest about a debate hosted by CNN and my distrust stems from CNN’s record, going back to 2012, when CNN’s Candy Crowley, the debate moderator “fact-checked” GOP candidate Mitt Romney, and her fact-check was wrong. Nothing has improved with presidential debates since then.

A presidential debate this early will likely only solidify partisan support, while the small number of independent and uncommitted voters remain soft on support up until closer to election time, when more Americans are really dialed into the election. This debate could prove disastrous if Biden fumbles, since prominent Dems have voiced concern about Biden’s abilities, not just Republicans.

Trump’s support among his base and among Republicans distressed by Biden policies, likely wouldn’t be rattled by whatever Trump says or how he acts. Bombastic Trump or more presidential Trump matter less than Trump’s commitment to border security, tough on crime, changing economic policy direction for Trump supporters, I think. Even many people not enamored of Trump are alarmed by the direction our country’s taken with Biden policies. So, I think Biden has more on the line and apparently his handlers do too and that’s why they’ve sequestered Biden for a week to try to get him prepared for a debate, while Trump has been out and about doing rallies and meeting with all sorts of people. This past week has showcased that Trump is the one acting presidential, while Biden needed to go into hiding for a week to prepare for a debate.

Many other things besides the candidates could impact this election – like civil unrest, disastrous results from the open border policies (like a terrorist attack), more economic turmoil, etc. For that reason, despite the media drama about how important this debate is, I’m not wasting any emotional energy on it.

I’ve been working on my small container garden and since cucumbers are coming in and piling up fast, I’ve been making pickles this past week and yesterday I decided to try a cucumber relish recipe from my Ball canning cookbook.

It might be tempting to bury our heads in the sand and tune out the news, but we should pay attention to wars breaking out, escalating foreign situations, political events, weather happenings and other local news, so it’s not good to try to retreat from the world. Add to that we’re in another contentious presidential election year, so more crazy happenings can be expected. Just yesterday there was a NBC news report of some got-aways coming across the US southern border, who might have ties to ISIS.

Working on putting some boundaries on news and social media consumption is a challenge for me, but I’m getting much better at not getting emotionally invested in news or political drama.

Finding balance between paying attention and paying too much attention can be hard and that’s why I realized that I also need to work on growing more hope and gratitude, because it’s too easy to get sucked into news media and social media drama. What I don’t think many people understand when they use social media is influencers aren’t the biggest concern. Social media platforms are set up to make you the product. Those platforms are designed to collect data on you every second you’re on them and then figure out ways to use algorithms to modify your behavior.

Your social media feed is all about algorithmic behavior modification, as social media algorithms fill your feed with information, analyze your behavior, then adjust your feed to keep you clicking/scrolling and watching. Your social media feed fills with things geared toward your previous searches and viewing habits. If you click on a particular topic, the algorithms will adjust and fill up your feed with more of that topic. It’s easy to assume other people are seeing the same things you are, but truly you’re allowing yourself to be guided down partisan rabbit holes and into a very narrow bubble. Many people talk about their online community, but these aren’t real communities – they’re echo chambers you’ve been guided into by algorithms you’re not even aware of. Millions of people get their news from social media sites too, so it’s important to be aware that the news that fills up your social media feed is all about algorithmic behavior modification too.

We all have to pick and choose what news and information we consume and react to. I live in an area that can be impacted by Atlantic hurricanes and the experts are predicting a more active hurricane season. Likewise, there’s escalating far-left protesting happening around the country, reminiscent of the 2020 BLM “mostly peaceful” protest chaos. I don’t live in a big city, but 2020 shook my faith in never having to worry about shortages or civil unrest disruptions in America. So, I’m reassessing my emergency preparedness.

I’m checking my pantry and other basic supplies and stocking up a bit more, although I continually stock up extra stuff as part of my normal routine. I’ve decided to up my efforts some, just in case. If you aren’t prepared at all, well, all I can say is you don’t have to go all in and become a hardcore prepper, but certainly having some basic items stocked up doesn’t take that much effort. Having extra food, water, medication/first-aid items, etc. ahead of time can mean the difference between an unusual event being a crisis or just an inconvenience. Sure, everything is more expensive, but stocking up a little at a time is still doable for most people.

This beautiful zinnia grew on it’s own in one of my squash containers. The squash plant bit the dust, but this zinnia has thrived. I love squash, but this zinnia softened the blow of losing the squash and it sure brightens my day. I will definitely be saving seeds from this zinnia.

Along with those preparedness efforts, I’m working on trying to become a better listener, especially with people I don’t agree with, and I’m trying to limit my time spent on political drama or people getting worked up about everything in the news. Stocking up hope is much harder than stocking up material items, but it’s the most vital thing to stockpile, no matter what happens.
