Hello, my friends, allow me to apologize for my long pause, especially considering all that's been happening. I wanna briefly touch on the recent Olympics and the efforts by so many to make them the Wokelympics. Never in my life did I think I'd find myself rooting against any US team, until Purple Hair, with her militant bitchathon, took over the women's soccer team. I'm glad they got beat and had to settle for bronze. It looks like Carli Lloyd may have been the only player with the guts to stand up to this anti-American disgracefulness and not kneel in protest of the flag of the greatest nation on earth. If other players felt the same but were too intimidated to speak out, shame on them. It's not complicated, if you hate the USA, don't go to the Olympics representing the USA. But these hypocrite zealots want it both ways, get the publicity, fame and endorsements, but still trash the nation you're representing. Needless to say, I won't set foot in a Subway, not as long as they use that nasty ingrate in their commercials. That aside, Team USA kicked ass, great for them! I was happy to see that the athletes stood proudly for our flag and anthem when they were awarded their gold medals. GO USA!!
Yes, our nation is melting down on many fronts and it's by design. Plugs & Da Ho are hell bent on destroying our livelihoods, scaring people to death so they return to total lock down misery and making sure they pay the wholly shiftless to sit on their butts at home. They're also doing all they can to open our borders fully to the invading hordes. This is bad for the surges it causes in crime, dangerous drug influx, loss of American jobs and hits to our social safety nets, all of which they know full well. But the Dems see these catastrophic consequences as a small price to pay for punishing red states and eventually flipping them to blue, if they're ever able to make all these illegal aliens lifelong govt. dependent Dem voters. Never mind the violence many of the illegals are facing from MS-13 gang members and other thugs. Rape, abduction, being sold into sex slavery, and murder are but a few of the things Biden's irresponsible, self serving border policies are causing. Below are some photos taken at the border, SW region, that show one of the many ways the Plugs immigration policies are undermining the nation he swore to protect. These can be opened when torrential rains fall, to avoid flash flooding and excessive debris accumulation. To make sure all of this fails, the Border Patrol Agents don't have the keys to lock the doors, other Feds do and they can't seem to ever find them. So, the gates remain wide open and it's easy to see any numbers of illegals can get through unfettered. But wait, there's more. We've reached a point where we've gone from Trump's mostly sealed border, to Biden's degradation of our enforcement numbers and capacity to a current state where the cartels are calling the shots. That's because we have skeleton crew numbers manning very extensive border wall distances and the cartels have far greater numbers of lookouts on hilltops with high tech communication and visual equipment. As soon as our limited assets run to a site that has activity, they leave open other areas, of which the lookouts inform the coyotes and they know that sector is unsupervised. There's also the issue of roadways that run in a grid along the border. Those are designed for fast, relatively easy access by SUVs that aren't capable of severe off road abuse. The coyotes know this, so they use ATVs and we end up chasing them on very rugged trails, rife with storm run off, ruts, branches, boulders, etc. That takes a toll on our SUVs, which are soon sidelined. The paperwork and bureaucracy won't even allow for a still road worthy SUV that just needs a new transmission to have one taken from a trashed SUV with a still working transmission and placed into it! This is insidious and tailor made failure, something Plugs et al are experts at.
The first photo is an Obama era border fence, with zero reinforcements, then a Trump era fence with some improvements, however limited. The next 3 photos are of the wide open monsoon gates. A good analogy is your front door, which you always lock, except when you or someone you allow comes in. Now imagine you're given orders that not only is your front door not to be locked, it must also stay wide open 24/7. That's our current border policy. These were all taken at the southwest border region.
I'm sure you've all seen the disgraceful debacle in Afghanistan, no need to add videos or heart breaking photos. Despite the Taliban's promises to have a peaceful transition, all lies, there are scores of people being beaten severely, shooting into crowds who dare protest the Taliban's abuses, and check points blocking refugees from entering Kabul airport. Remember that photo of 600+ Afghans packed into a cargo plane like sardines? Well, now there are planes taking off with many empty seats and minimal passengers. Yes, this mess has the fingerprints of several past Presidents, starting with Clinton, who had 4 chances to kill UBL and passed on all 4. Bush, Obama and Trump did little better. It can be argued that it was the idiot, Dubya, who did the most damage, although more Marines died in Afghanistan under Obama's watch than any other POTUS.We should have been outta there ages ago for the following reasons.
1) It was Al Qaeda (read Bin Laden) who planned and executed the 9-11 attacks, not the Taliban.
2) UBL & Al Qaeda fled mostly into Pakistan, due to incompetent desk jockey generals like Tommy Franks, where we never went to pursue them. Remember UBL was found and killed in Pakistan.
3) It was clear from the get go that countries like Afghanistan are backward, tribal places who have no interest in the West imposing democracy, Christianity, women's rights, or any other freedoms we enjoy upon them. They also took issue with the idea we'd kill their opium business and try to supplant it with some other means of income.
These endless wars with nothing gained are what happens when we ignore Ike's farewell address, where he warned us in no uncertain terms about the dire consequences of the military-industrial complex, if it were allowed to run amok. Well, 60 years later we know it did and we've been paying dearly in American blood and treasure. We spent $2+ trillion in this sand toilet, and for what?! The only things we have to show for it are untold numbers of dead, wounded and permanently maimed soldiers, who deserved far better than the no win quagmire they were sent into. Biden even left sophisticated military equipment behind, just like Obama did for ISIS. This will no doubt be used by the Taliban to oppress their own people or fight any military opposition they ever encounter. Our 20-year Afghan boondoggle was also enabled by clueless diplomat idiots who placed their own own appointments and self interest above all else. Add to that the ill advised tendency to side with war lords and other corrupt despots, loathed and feared by the local people, and you have a nation that was ripe for implosion. You see, my friends, war is big money and good business, for contractors and other vested interests who supply the much needed materials to wage war. Vehicles, tanks, planes, Humvees, firearms, ammo, ordinance, food, uniforms, comm equipment. etc. the list is endless and the venture quite lucrative.
There's a reason we haven't won a war since 1945, we no longer consider victory as essential when we commit our troops. In both Viet Nam and the Middle East, our enemies were able to flee to neighboring countries and they knew the ROE forbade our troops from seeking them out. Can you imagine the Allies during WWII not chasing the Germans and Japanese into any nation they fled to, for fear of world opinion or violating a so called sovereign nation who's aiding and abetting our enemies? In WWII our enemies had no safe harbor and we sought and destroyed them, wherever they were. Until the US military is free to regard any nation that harbors terrorists as an enemy and bring the fight to them, we will never win again. If that's the case, let's put our military on our Southern border and not fighting in some foreign land that resents us and won't even share the costs. When you have fools like Gen. Mark Milley Vanilli, more concerned with white supremacy and imposing Critical Race Theory BS on our military than killing the enemy, how can our troops be expected to focus on defeating the enemy? The best phrase I've heard the last few days to succinctly describe this debacle is "Blame the suits, not the boots!" Add this retreat to the long list of everything Plugs touches turning to excrement.
Let's look at the economic doldrums we're in, also by design. Plugs et al know 2 things, many people are stupid but also lazy. So they've figured out that many of them can be paid off to sit at home on their duffs and not work. Even the spineless, pathetic GOP is complicit, they know it's hard to run against Santa Claus and are scared to push for an end to this inflation burgeoning, money printing time bomb. Any of you who run a dental practice or other business know what I'm talking about. Try hiring any employee, good luck! This also has a trickle down effect on every aspect of the economy. People who aren't working are getting Biden checks and that's generally less than they'd normally earn. That means they're less likely to do things like elective treatment, travel, or buy consumer goods. We went to a very nice restaurant Sunday night in Merrick Village, and there were as many employees standing around as there were people having dinner, pitiful. Even the dumbest among us know gas and anything else they pay for has gone up in price. We can only hope they figure it out and decide to go back to work. Either way, it's a tough sell and the SOBs who imposed this on us have guaranteed jobs and salaries, so they don't really GAS. Listen to Plugs, that smug bastard who's never had a real job in his adult life or run a business, telling us to compete with our money earned by real work, against the Fed's printed money. I guess he's too brain damaged to realize that added expense would be passed on to consumers?

Needless to say, the Covid fear campaign is never gonna end. The narrative changes every few days and now we're looking at annual boosters for a vaccine that was touted to be the end all, cure all after only 2 pokes. This nation had better wake up by 2022 and vote out the arrogant tyrants who are oppressing them, ditto 2024. The Dems added an additional leg to their 3-legged stool of failure- surging crime, the border, and inflation, with the Afghan humiliation. Voters had damned well better remember!
I'll end with a little dentistry, primarily the FDA, for those who are colleagues. You all remember the travesty of the June 2019 House of Delegates and the resulting decision we took in our S. Fla. district not to attend any more FDA events, especially the House of Delegates. That determination has been adhered to and it's being noticed. Well, to no one's surprise, the perpetrators of this infamy are lying to new dental students and delegates, telling them all of this was due only to one candidate we ran that was unfit, leaving them no choice but to reject her, and that we're cry babies for not going. The only problem with that fiction is that we recently presented a dynamic, young, highly articulate and talented candidate who has served the FDA with distinction, for FDA Today magazine editor. He was roundly rejected and the wizards of smart had the audacity to pull an old former editor out of the moth balls, a guy who should be about ready to retire, and they recycled him. Clearly, this is NOT about one person they don't like, mostly over petty resentment of her talents and accomplishments at the national level. This is about an entire district that is disliked and resented by a small cabal of frustrated old dentists who are perpetuating an good ol' boy's and gal's club. They managed to convince much of the FDA Delegation, who are either equally resentful or suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, that this is a valid action. To these little people I say this. While you make our state increasingly irrelevant in the national dental arena, we elected the first Floridian to ever be ADA President (something you tried and failed to do 3 times) and our delegation is being recognized and written up nationwide for our successes in membership recruitment and retention, as well as creative events.
