U.S. State Department Releases New Warning for Popular Destination.

With spring and summer travel just around the corner, the U.S. State Department warns travelers about increased risk in one of the most popular Caribbean destinations: the Bahamas.  

The State Department has a four-level system for advising U.S. citizens about international travel. Level 1 signifies “exercise normal precautions,” and Level 4 means “do not travel.”   

The latest advisory maintains the Bahamas at Level 2 and recommends visitors “exercise increased caution. ” It was also updated to “reflect crime, swimming-related risks, and information on traveling with firearms and ammunition.”  

 Is it still safe to visit the Bahamas? In general, yes. The State Department is not advising against travel to the Bahamas. Still, it does want travelers to be aware that “violent crime—like armed robberies, burglaries, and sexual assaults—can occur anywhere in The Bahamas. “Certain places like Freeport and the “Over the Hill” area in Nassau should be avoided or visited with extra precautions. 

The alert also concerns three other main risks that travelers should consider. 

Jet skis and boating  

According to the State Department, injuries and deaths have occurred due to a lack of regulation in boating in the Bahamas. The advisory warns that “watercraft may not be safe, and some operators are not licensed or insured.” Operators sometimes ignore local weather forecasts, going out even when it’s risky. Sexual assaults by jet ski operators have also been reported.   

Beach safety 

The State Department advises travelers to pay close attention to jet skis and other watercraft operating close to shore and never swim alone. They also recommend keeping track of local weather forecasts and staying alert for sharks, although attacks are rare.  

Travelers are more likely to run into trouble because they do not understand the risks of snorkeling and swimming, especially for extended periods or for those with less experience. “Swimmers and snorkelers have died after overestimating their physical fitness or health,” the advisory reads. 

For those headed to the beaches on or near downtown Nassau, the State Department also warns that travelers should “be aware of your surroundings and stay alert in public restrooms,” as sexual assaults have been reported in the area. 

Weapons and ammunition 

Firearms and ammunition are illegal in the Bahamas. This rule is strictly enforced, and some travelers have recently run into issues because of the small quantities of ammunition they inadvertently brought into their suitcases. You can face arrest, fines, and even jail time. 

 No matter where you travel, enrolling in the State Department’s Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) is recommended. This free service allows U.S. citizens and nationals traveling and living abroad to enroll in their trip with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. By registering, you will receive any local safety alerts from the U.S. Embassy, making it easier to locate you in an emergency.

Bus Driver Violates Miami-Dade Weapons Policy, Tragically Kills Customers.

Bus Driver Violates Miami-Dade Weapons Policy, Tragically Kills Customers.

A Miami-Dade Transit bus operator, whose duty was to ensure the safety of his passengers, has been placed on administrative leave after a tragic incident. He shot and killed two customers, a deeply distressing event that occurred just before 3:50 a.m. Sunday morning.

A male passenger attempted to board the bus with an electric bike at NW 183 Street at NW 7 Avenue in the City of Miami Gardens. The Bus operator, suspecting the customer stole the electric bike, immediately sprang into action, like a great crime fighter. But is that what the county pays him to do? Fight crime? Drive the bus!

The bus driver fired six shots in the bus, striking the cyclist and his friend. Nobody steals a bike on my watch, is the mindset.
It was like Superman rescuing a “stolen bike” with Kryptonite on his back. And that’s just what it is. The bus driver saved a stolen bike but took two lives in his bike-saving mission.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue airlifted the victims to Aventura Hospital in critical condition. They were later pronounced dead from their injuries, police said.

Dade County transit officials are tight-lipped about whether the bus driver called his dispatcher for help before confronting the customers. However, they have announced that they have started the termination process for the gunslinging bus driver. MGPD released the driver after questioning. Miami Gardens police and Miami-Dade Transit are withholding the bus driver’s name.

Any county employee bringing an unauthorized firearm on county property is the equivalent of Superman riding around with Kryptonite on his back. He’s done. His fate is sealed. The City of Miami Gardens is a rough place. That is the same city where Miami-Dade County cop Danny Alvarez and his cronies dragged Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill by his neck out of his car.

Since January of this year, the Department has officially changed its name to Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office. The new Sheriff, who was part and parcel of protecting police brutality in the past, is now involved in the investigation of this incident. She continues to sweep police misconduct under the rug.

Miami-Dade County Released Statement

“It is the policy of Miami-Dade County (10-07-36) to ensure that all employees can enjoy a work environment free from all forms of violence and threats. This policy includes an absolute PROHIBITION AGAINST EMPLOYEES CARRYING FIREARMS OR PERSONAL WEAPONS DURING AND IN THE COURSE OF THE EMPLOYEE’S OFFICIAL DUTIES, EXCEPT AS MAY BE SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED.”

Rapper Sean Kingston And His Mother Found Guilty of Fraud.

Rapper Sean Kingston And His Mother Found Guilty of Fraud.

Ma Barker And Her Son

Rapper Sean Kingston, who once soared to the top of the music charts from humble beginnings, has now taken an unexpected turn in his career. Born Kesean Paul Anderson, he finds himself back where he started—at the bottom.

On Friday, a federal jury delivered a significant blow to the reputation of 35-year-old ‘Sean Kingston’ and his mother, 62-year-old Janice Turner, by finding them guilty of a “luxury fraud scheme.” This verdict has tarnished their names and cast a shadow over Kingston’s rise to fame, which began in 2007 when he co-wrote and performed the hit “Beautiful Girls,” using Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me” in the background.

Ma Barker Syndrome.

The song “Beautiful Girls” has garnered over 1.5 billion views on YouTube. Kingston started at the bottom and scratched his way to a top spot in the music scene. His mother, Janice Turner, a virulent thief, went to prison in 2006 after she pleaded guilty to defrauding a bank out of $160,000. She served one and a half years. Afflicted with the Ma Barker syndrome, Janice Turner brought her son Sean Kingston into an irresponsible life of stealing.

Hence, last August, Ms. Turner and Kingston were arraigned in a one-million-dollar fraud scheme to which they pled “not guilty.” Today, a federal grand jury begs to differ on their pleas.
According to TMZ, Sean Kingston was visibly distraught and wept when the verdict was read.
This emotional response from the once-celebrated artist offers a glimpse into the personal toll of the legal troubles.
Last May, the Broward Sheriff’s Office issued a warrant for Kingston. He was taken into custody while performing at Fort Irwin Army Base in the Mojave Desert.

Sticky Fingers vs Goldfinger.

Kesean Paul Anderson, aka Kingston, was born in Miami. In his earlier years, he moved to Jamaica to live with family members. Later, he returned to Miami to finish high school. With the release of “Beautiful Girls,” Kingston made it out of slum life. Success is sweet. And then he became greedy.
Sticky fingers syndrome took over his mind.

At the time of his arrest, the rapper was serving two years of probation. On the same day Kingston was arrested, the Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) raided the rental property Kingston shared with his mother in Southwest Ranches, Davie, Florida.

“In 2018, a New York jeweler successfully sued the two for $301,000 after they scammed the store out of nine items.”
In the James Bond movie Goldfinger, the great novelist Ian Fleming wrote the famous lines, “Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a pattern.” Sticky Fingers vs. Goldfinger.

This fraud spree isn’t their first run of committing fraud by scamming people out of their money, goods, and property. It is a well-developed pattern. Like a crackhead addicted to crack cocaine, they could not stop stealing. They had to get their fix. Whenever there is an addict, someone must supply the dopamine enhancer.
‘Kingston’ enjoyed being the fixer who got high off her supply. Broward Circuit Judge Ernest Kollra called her the ‘fixer’ and the ‘nerve center’ of the criminal enterprise.’

The warrants issued last May for their arrest allege they stole money, $480,000 worth of jewelry, a $160,000 Cadillac Escalade, and furniture.
Kingston and his mother were found guilty of defrauding a Florida entertainment systems company in February 2023. The company alleged that he failed to pay $120,000 of a $150,000 bill for a 232-inch television it installed in his home. The TV is approximately 17 feet by 9.5 feet and covers a wall.

The mindset is one of living in a rental property. The companies who installed the goods would have to place a lien on the house to get paid. However, Sean Kingston and his Janice Turner won’t be affected because they live in a rental. Well, they are FAFO.
Now, a jury has convicted both of them of all five charges leveled against them, with each of them potentially facing up to 20 years in prison.

CNN Guest Angela Rye Accused Shark Tank Kevin O’Reilly: You Invaded My “Space.”

CNN Guest Angela Rye Accused Shark Tank Kevin O’Reilly: You Invaded My “Space.”

You Can't Touch Dis.

Angela Rye has again stirred controversy. This time, her target is Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary, whom she accused of invading her personal space by touching her hand during a conversation, sparking a heated debate. The ‘She Too’ movement, which advocates for respect of personal boundaries, is a key factor in Rye’s reaction.

It’s important to note that Abby Phillip, the Host of CNN’s New Night, is unrelated to the renowned Australian pirate Arthur Phillip.

Feeling like an old sinking pirate’s ship, CNN resorted to bringing back guests like Ms. Angela Rye and Tiffany Cross, metaphorically referred to as’ albatrosses’ and ‘ship anchors’ due to their perceived lack of value. Ms. Cross’ one-sided approach to journalism, including her combative and substanceless appearance, underscores the need for balanced perspectives in media commentary.

The “She Too” movement left her without making any money off of some poor schmuck. Angela Rye is back at it again. Rye likes to cry for special effects and sympathy. Her sense of entitlement is off the Richter scale. This time, she slammed Shark Tank host/investor Kevin O’Leary for touching her hand while conversing.

Feeling like an old sinking pirate’s ship, CNN resorted to bringing back guests like Ms. Rye and Tiffany Cross, metaphorically referred to as ‘albatrosses’ and ‘ship anchors’ due to their perceived lack of value. This choice of guests, including Ms. Cross’s combative and substanceless appearance, highlights the need for more substantive discussions in the media.

Ms. Rye Was Within Her Rights

Although Ms. Rye was within her rights to tell O’Leary that he was invading her space. However, sometimes a little tact goes a long way. Since he did not touch her arm—just his hand motion touched her hand—she could have waited until the show broke to confront him. O’Leary did the right thing and immediately apologized to Rye, saying, “It won’t happen again.”
Then he looked at Abby Phillip, his eyes saying, I didn’t know. He was embarrassed. He wanted the earth to open and swallow him up. Humiliating someone in front of millions of people unnecessarily is foolish.

Some people are touchy-feely. CNN’s Senior Commentator Scott Jennings had to yell at Bakari Sellers, “Don’t touch me,” on the “News Night With Abby Phillip” show; Sellers likes to touch Jennings.

CNN Logo

It isn’t clear that Sellers is an Andrew Gillum in waiting. However, Scott Jennings’ presence sets his skin on fire. And that’s fine—to each his own.
After appearing on “News Night With Abby Phillip,” Republican Nancy Mace accused Professor Michael Eric Dyson of sexual harassment. Dyson and Rep Mace had taken a photo together at the show.

She fought with all the other guests and commentators. She was auditioning for a permanent guest commentator or Host as a Democratic host shill. While the Host of “Unhinged With Dr. Rashard Richey” praised Ms. Rye for her ‘bold’ stance, most sane-thinking people found her abrasiveness a put-off.

“You can pay for school but can’t buy class.”—Jay Z. Tiffany Cross had a two-year run on MSNBC. Her “Cross Connection” show got disconnected after she went on a vulgar rant on Comedy Central. The wild-out Host of “Native Land Pod” is especially fond of advocating for the castration of men.

O’Leary is known on Shark Tank as “Mister Wonderful,” a play on his character as someone with a blunt personality, Shark Tank. Cross complained that the leaders at MSNBC never took her seriously and often questioned her ‘intelligence.’

“Tiffany Cross said she faced “constant criticism” from network executives who questioned her intelligence and wanted her to be part of the anti-Trump “echo chamber.” MSNBC suddenly severed ties with Cross in November 2022, deciding not to renew her contract after two years….Jan 19, 2024.

Southwest Airlines Is Reversing Its Popular Free Luggage Policy.

Southwest Airlines Is Reversing Its Popular Free Luggage Policy.

Southwest Airlines has made a significant move by proclaiming the elimination of its long-standing luggage policy, which previously allowed two free checked bags per passenger.

This change aligns Southwest with other major U.S. carriers, a departure from the company’s previous stance. Company executives had consistently highlighted this popular policy as the key differentiator between Southwest and other budget airlines.

Travelers who book their Southwest flight after May 28 will have to pay for checked bags unless they purchase a Business Select ticket, which will still include two complimentary checked bags.

Frequent flyers with A-List Preferred status will also get two bags, while A-List level members will get one free checked bag. Southwest credit card holders will also get one free checked bag.

While the airline has not yet disclosed the exact cost of checked luggage, it’s expected to be in line with the fees charged by other major carriers. Based on industry standards, passengers can anticipate paying around $35 for their first checked bag.

Southwest’s decision to reverse its luggage policy is part of recent changes to boost revenue. The airline has also removed other perks, such as changeable tickets and open seating. With federal data indicating that U.S. airlines collectively earned over $5 billion from bag fees in 2024, Southwest’s policy change could significantly enhance its financial performance.

Southwest’s policy change has not gone unnoticed by its competitors, who see it as an opportunity to attract new customers.

Delta Air Lines President Glen Hauenstein expressed his thoughts on the potential customer shifts, saying, “I think there are some customers who [chose Southwest] because of that [bags fly free policy], and now those customers are up for grabs.”
This sentiment reflects the potential for significant changes in the industry as Southwest continues to implement multiple product changes.

Black Twin Boys Found Shot To Death: White Firefighter Arrested.

The family of two nineteen-year-old twin boys found shot dead are in a state of disbelief and are vehemently disputing the authorities’ claim of a murder-suicide. Hikers discovered the bodies of Qaadir Malik Lewis and Naazir Rahim Lewis near the top of Bell Mountain in the state of Georgia.

Meanwhile, 42-year-old Scott Kerlin, of Hiawassee, Georgia, a volunteer firefighter, has been arrested on misdemeanor charges in connection to sharing online photos of the dead bodies of the boys. This arrest has sparked a wave of shock and disbelief in the local community.

Bell Mountain is about 90 miles from where the Lewis twins lived. “Investigators are still seeking answers on how Kerlin gained access and shared photos of the scene.”

Family members became suspicious when the boys missed their flight to Boston to meet some friends. While the Georgia Bureau of Investigation’s continues its claim that “their deaths resulted from a murder-suicide,” the Lewis boys’ loved ones vehemently contradict that version of event. They said the boys were inseparable, rarely fought, and unfamiliar with the mountain range.

“How did they end up out in the mountains? They don’t hike out there; they’ve never been out there,” Samira Brawner, an aunt of the twins, shared with NBC affiliate WXIA of Atlanta. “They don’t know anything about Hiawassee, Georgia. They never even heard of Bell Mountain, so how did they end up right there?” The family’s confusion adds to the mystery of the case.

Investigators have yet to reveal if the young men had a mutual girlfriend with whom they may have disagreed about sharing.

Former Congresswoman Cori Bush’s Husband Indicted PPP Loan Fraud?

Former Congresswoman Cori Bush’s Husband Indicted PPP Loan Fraud?

Sticky Fingers?

On Friday, federal prosecutors brought serious charges against former Congresswoman Cori Bush’s husband, Cortney Merritts. They allege that Merritts defrauded the taxpayers of a substantial sum, $20,000, through the Paycheck Protection program.

The implications of such actions on the Paycheck Protection and Economic Injury Disaster Loan programs (PPP) are significant, akin to a long-term Ailment that keeps resurfacing.

When you get it, you’ve got it. And just when you think that you have shaken it, got rid of it, it comes back to you, usually in the form of an indictment and handcuff attached.

“Mr. Merritts intends to plead not guilty to the charges,” Merritts’ lawyer, Justin Gelfand of Margulis Gelfand DiRuzzo & Lambson, said in a statement. “As with any indictment, this is only the government’s version. We look forward to litigating this case in federal court in Washington, D.C.”

Celebrities And Cops Arrested For Stealing PPP Money

The allegations made against Cortney Meritts, a military veteran, is nothing new for well-know people. Hundreds have been charged and pled guilty and sentenced to jail. For many, during the COVID years, the temptation was too hard to resist. Hundreds took a bike of the poisoned apple.
In September 2021.” Maurice Fayne, who starred in Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, has been sentenced to more than 17 years in federal prison for conspiracy and wire fraud related to a Ponzi scheme, for bank fraud, and making false statements to a financial institution pertaining to a fraudulent Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan application.”

Maurice Fayne used the scammed money for a variety of reasons:
• $40,000 for past-due child support;
• $50,000 for restitution owed in a previous fraud case;
• $65,000 in cash withdrawals;
• $85,000 for custom-made jewelry;
• $136,000 to lease a Rolls-Royce;
• $230,000 to associates who helped him run a Ponzi scheme;
• $907,000 to start a new business in Arkansas.

 

On October 12, 2023, “Sheriff Gregory Tony announced the arrest of 15 employees on federal charges related to Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) fraud.” As many as seventeen BSO staffers were arrested. The arrestees ranged from a SWAT team officer to a top-notch BSO Detective.

According to federal prosecutors, ‘Cortney Merritts, 46, of St. Louis, falsified details about his purported businesses to obtain loans from the Small Business Administration in 2020 and 2021.’ Former (D) Rep Cori was a member of a group known as the ‘Squad’, which was a group of progressive Democratic congresswomen who were known for their outspoken views and activism. The Squad consisted of Cori Bush, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Talib, and Ilhan Omar.

Former New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman, who got booted from Congress for criticizing the war in Gaza, was confused. He was surprised to see a male, Merritts, involved in a situation that was typically associated with the ‘Squad’, a group of progressive Democratic congresswomen.

The feds have a 97% conviction rate. Around 2% of federal criminal defendants go to trial. Most defendants who are criminally charged plead guilty for a reduced sentence.

Rep. Jasmine (Mammy) Crockett Challenged By Black Republican Sholden Daniels.

Rep. Jasmine (Mammy) Crockett Challenged By Black Republican Sholden Daniels.

A Pivotal Moment in Texas Politics. Professional claptrap Texas Democrat  Jasmine Crockett, known for her empty rhetoric, and combative behavior now faces a formidable opponent.

Defense Attorney Sholden Daniels, a US Army veteran deeply rooted in the community, has thrown his hat into the ring.

 Unlike Crockett, who has gained a reputation in Congress for her confrontational style, Daniels presents a stark contrast with his more collaborative approach.

Putting on a show worked for Obama and eventually catapulted him into the White House. Will this tactic work for Representative Jasmine Crockett? No, it won’t. Rep Crockett, not Rep Davvy Crockett, is a performative politician.

Sholden Daniels might have an uphill battle dislodging Jasmine Crockett from Congress because AIPAC backs her. Jasmine Crockett supports the war in Gaza and votes to fund it. Yet she likes to brag that she’s a civil rights attorney.

The family of Botham Jean forced Ms. Crockett to remove a lie from her political website, claiming that she represented the Jean family in the wrongful killing of their son, Botham.

The “Unbeatable” Representative Crockett?

Just a few days ago, Representative Crockett was on CNN, bragging that no one could beat her in a race for the seat she holds in the House of Representatives. Since arriving in Washington, Crockett has accomplished nothing of substance for her constituents.

She has proved herself to be a great dancer and meme generator. A lot is happening in Texas, and the times call for bold action for Texans and America writ large. Can the “unbeatable” Crockett be beaten? It’s easy to declare oneself ‘unbeatable’ without challengers.

Now, Rep Crockett faces a challenger of substance. Sholden Daniels launched a thorough investigation into Crockett’s campaign, alleging that it used money ($16,000) from the bank account of a retired couple in Texas. Daniels personally visited the couple’s house to inquire about the contribution made in their names.

Daniels directly questioned the couple about the contribution made in their names. The wife’s denial of any knowledge of the charges on their bank account raises serious questions about the transparency of Crockett’s campaign finances.

Sholden Daniels says Jasmine Crockett’s performative behavior in the Halls of Congress is unbecoming of the office.
“Jasmine would rather virtue signal on Twitter. She would rather talk than do the job.”
Let’s bring some common sense to Washington in 2026. I’m Shelden Daniel, the candidate who will remove Jasmine Crockett from Congress and send her back to the beauty salon where she belongs.

Baton-wielding Track Runner Beats Her Competitor: Un sportsmanship.

Baton-wielding Track Runner Beats Her Competitor: Un sportsmanship.

Wham! Take That!

Virginia Prosecutors Charge High School Track Runner with Assault After Baton Attack on Competitor.
In a turn of events that left everyone stunned, Seventeen-year-old Alaila Everett appeared enraged when another runner (sixteen-year-old Kaelen Tucker) passed her on the track.

Everett’s reaction to being outpaced led to a social media backlash, with threats and racial slurs directed at her. This incident has sparked a debate on sportsmanship in the track community.

This biased media coverage is reminiscent of the tactic used in the O.J. Simpson case, where he was portrayed as the archetype of all men who commit spousal homicide. The reality is that men of all races have committed such acts, even before O.J.’s alleged involvement.
And other violent white men have killed their spouses after the O.J. incident. Yet O. J. Simpson’s black face is made the poster child of violence. That is white supremacy at work.

Bad Behavior Buttressed By Her Parents

Alaila Everett’s refusal to acknowledge her actions is concerning. It raises questions about her character and ability to take responsibility for her actions.

Backed up by her parents, Alaila Everett refuses to take responsibility for her dastardly actions. Instead, she blames her victim for the attack. Ms. Everett took the news media to complain, “You’re physically hurt, but you’re not thinking about my mental,” the self-absorbed Alaila Everett said of her victim, Kaelin Tucker.

Wow. Now, that sounds like someone who gets cut off on the highway, gets into a road rage, and then uses her car as a deadly weapon.

Later on, she turns around and blames the person she kills for their death. Such behavior is self-absorbed and unconscionable.

It’s crucial that Alaila Everett faces the consequences of her actions. However, it’s equally important to emphasize that her behavior does not represent Black culture. Let’s not forget that unsportsmanlike behavior transcends race, as demonstrated by the Tonya Harding incident in 1994.

The NAACP has joined the fight on behalf of the road rage Everett.

NAACP is correct to a certain degree about the racist animus because this is not the first time un-sportsmanship behavior shocked the sports world. In 1994, figure skater Tonya Harding paid a man to attack her competitor, Nancy Kerrigan. Kerrigan’s attacker beat her in her knee with a baton. Both Kerrigan and Harding were white. No one hurled racial slurs at Tonya Harding for her dastardly deed.

The standard weight of a relay race baton is about 50g or 1.76oz. There are sixteen ounces in one pound. Kaelen Tucker claims that she suffered a concussion from the whack she received from Alaila Everett. Here comes Morgan and Morgan.

“In January 1994, figure skater Nancy Kerrigan was attacked and injured by a man with a baton, leading to speculation and later confirmation that her rival, Tonya Harding, was involved in the plot, though Harding herself pleaded guilty to conspiring to hinder prosecution.” Wikipedia.

All President Trump Is saying is: ‘Give Peace A Chance.’

All President Trump Is saying is: ‘Give Peace A Chance.’

And the time for this chance is not just now, but it’s urgent and crucial.
After Joe Biden’s clumsy military withdrawal from Afghanistan and an unnecessary war in Iraq, President Trump is now advocating for peace. The contrast in their approaches is stark, with Trump’s call for peace in Ukraine standing in sharp relief against Biden’s military decisions. President Trump often said the war in Ukraine and the Middle East would not occur on his watch.

On Saturday, for good or ill, Trump sent warplanes to unleash bombs on the commercial ships pirates known as the Houthis.
Meanwhile, Trump still faces strong resistance from Democrats for wanting peace between Russia and Ukraine.

In response to opposition to Trump and his Ukraine / Russia plans, the President gave his explanation as to why he wants to end the war in Ukraine.

President Trump’s Reason For Seeking Peace Deal

“People are saying, ‘Why are you doing this?’ Trump reiterated. “Well, 2500 people a week are dying.” “And they have families. They have mothers, and they have fathers,” Trump said, his voice carrying the weight of his concern for the human cost of war.

To some observers, Trump appears to side with Russian President Putin against Ukraine’s Zelenskyy. Trump has mentioned that Zelenskyy took advantage of former President Joe Biden because of Biden’s age and mental decline. The Internet is crawling with scammers who scam the elderly out of their money. Zelenskyy pulled a fast one on the American people using Biden.

They have sisters, and they have brothers, as well, and they are dying.” they continued, “I have seen satellite pictures [of the dead bodies], and it looks like Gettysburg in its prime. It’s horrible,” he said.

Ironically, though, while the President advocates for peace in hot wars, he’s also engaging in several trade wars with the nation’s allies. This dual approach is a cause for concern, as any tactical General will advise against fighting several battles on numerous fronts at once. As a strategy, this is a sure way to lose your shirt. Starting March 4th, Trump imposed tariffs on Canada, China, and Mexico, which could undermine his peace advocacy.

Canada and China retaliated against the US with similar tariffs. Mexico has remained lukewarm in the fight. Mexico’s President figured a tariff war with America would leave her with tons of rotten Avocados to dispose of.

They engraved it in stone for a valid reason: a reminder that no man is an island. And as they say, “No man stands alone.” America is a self-sufficient country. However, America is not an independent Burning Bush. Instead of picking off his supposed adversaries one at a time, Trump has decided to eat them in a single bite. Even a python attempting to eat a cow gets sluggish when trying to digest the cow. At such a time, others can readily take advantage of Python.

As the old saying goes, ‘You eat an elephant one mouthful at a time.’ Eating Canada, Mexico, and extra-large at once can only cause things to get bogged down. Hence, the stock market’s free fall is an outward manifestation of symptoms of an internal disorder. If only you pay attention.

The Down Jones Stock Market.

Tech stocks have been in a free fall for the past five days. The Dow Jones and the S&P must have changed their names to the Down Jones Industrial.
The uncertainty caused by Trump’s policies has sent the Stock Market into a topsy-turvy tailspin. 

The Dow lost 478 points on Monday, and the selloff continued on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On Friday, the market rebounded, but The Wall Street Journal has reported that Stocks are down 10% from its massive rally when President Trump began his second term. This volatility indicates the impact of Trump’s economic policies on the stock market.

Trump casually dismissed the economic turmoil as growing pains. “Markets go up and down,” he said. He mentioned that America measures its economy once every three months to calm the people’s fear. He noted that China takes a one-hundred-year measurement of its overall economy. In other words, don’t panic. Trump is right about the stock market going up and down. However, the overall trajectory of the long-term market is up.

Elon Musty has no idea how the government functions. He’s lost in the sauce. Elon is a little boy playing with matches in a dry forest. He is starting to believe his press—or Twitter. Business is business, and America is a business. However, the United States of America is not Twitter.
Elon must have seen that stupid Miss Piggy-looking reporter April Ryan, who hailed him as a god while she was on The Beat with Ari Melber on “MSDNC, per President Trump.” She is a dumb ass. She knows nothing about the “God.”

Elon Musk Calls Social Security Is A Ponzi Scheme.

Elon Musk says ‘Social ‘Social Security‘ is a Ponzi plan, and he is correct. Social Security is a “Ponzi Scheme,” which is necessary at this stage. Tens of millions of Americans have joined the ‘Ponzi scheme.’ And tens of millions of hard-working Americans pay into that ‘Ponzi scheme’ each year. Social Security is not the ENRON, Ivan Boesky, or Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme. This is more like what Latinos call a “tanda” or “cundina.” People pool or put their money together, which is returned to them later.

If workers work 40, 50, or 60 years and contribute to the “tanda” or “cutting,” when it’s their turn, they must get it unless someone steals the money, which Elon Musty threatens to do with the people’s Social Security. In 2023, Americans contributed almost $1.4 trillion to the Social Security Administration (SSA). “Cast your bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days.” –Ecclesiastes 11:1. millions of Americans have cast their bread (money) upon the waters. Now, they await their turn to draw from the pool.

For fiscal year (FY)2025, SSA is scheduled to distribute $1.6 trillion in benefits to roughly 69 million Americans, of whom 51 million are at retirement age.

The SSA will pay other benefits to 2.6 million dependents, 7.2 million disabled workers, 5.8 million survivors, and 1.1 million to their dependents.

The Insolvency of Social Security?

Has the Social Security Administration reached a stage of insolvency? Not really. Granted, COVID did not kill enough elderly people to balance the SSA’s budget. According to the figures above, Social Security has a two hundred billion-dollar deficit for FY 2025.
Instead of pumping another 200 billion dollars into Ukraine, the government could put that money into the SSA. A balanced budget is not just a financial term; it’s a principle of responsible governance.

Give peace a chance. Mexicans who have been paying into the system for ten years or more should be allowed to continue paying into the system.
The twelve million who just jumped the fence during President Joe Biden’s open border policy? They’re on their own. Next time, come through a Port of Entry.

A War Economy Is Superficial.

Will President Trump renew the  In August 1935, Congress passed the Social Security Act, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed it into law. Congress designed it to prevent America from becoming a shithole country. In 1929 — 1941, America was on the brink of becoming a shithole country. The SSA was created to prevent hungry White men from becoming angry White men.

Thus, it prevented them from turning their anger towards the government. Of course, it helped to pull the United States out of the 1929 Great Depression—along with WWII. However, the United States is at a juncture where it can no longer depend on wars to keep its economy going.
