Music, Video And Message by Sissel

Auld Lang Syne

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rtajxo8d7js

The title of the Scottish tune translates to "times gone by"

and is about remembering friends from the past

and not letting them be forgotten.

Despite its strong association with New Year's Eve,

"Auld Lang Syne," written by Robert Burns in the 1700s,

was never intended to be a holiday song.

Self-defense Still A Valid Legal Defense In Florida

Florida politician shoots intruder who crashed vehicle into another house while fleeing cops, police say

“Williams, armed with a gun, confronted Vasquez-Perez in his garage. The suspect attempted to push past and punch Williams, who then pulled the trigger, striking Vasquez-Perez twice.

Williams will not face charges in the incident because he acted in self-defense, police said.”

Judges Major Contributors To Border Deaths And Suffering

“Supreme Court upholds block on Trump's asylum ban

The administration's policy, signed on November 9, would temporarily bar migrants who illegally cross into the US through the southern border from seeking asylum outside of official ports of entry. A federal judge in California quickly blocked the order, and the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals agreed.”

https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/21/politics/supreme-court-upholds-block-on-trumps-asylum-ban/index.html

The Judges have spoken – you migrants head for the unprotected remote border areas to illegally cross into the US instead of the nationally recognized ‘ports of entry’ that are close to immigrant processing, emergency medical help and basic accommodations facilities.

Two young migrants have died recently crossing at points a full 8-hour drive, over dirt desert roads, from any meaningful help or processing.

Over 16 years, the Border Patrol documented (those they found) 6023 deaths in the four states bordering Mexico, (that includes all of Obama’s terms – didn’t hear about that during his timeframe)

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/05/04/us/texas-border-migrants-dead-bodies.html

What a pathetic situation when the US judges (small j) direct these poor people to the most inhospitable and dangerous areas of our southern border to suffer major deterioration and many deaths.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year --- Your Honors.
Any wonder that 90% of the American People are in-contempt-of the courts!

Roanoke Times Embraces Voting Fraud And ID Theft

The campaign manager behind Democrat Chris Hurst’s state House victory last year is turning his attention toward two Republican-occupied seats on the Montgomery County Board of Supervisors."

How pathetic! Big flowery and positive RT article about a campaign manager at the center of absconding with 40,000 RU and VT voter ID files that were then used to exploit these unwitting student victims.

Obama Legacy: No US Defense Against Putin’s Missiles

Roanoke Times, Pg N&W 3: New Putin Hypervelocity Missiles cannot be intercepted

(Note: tiny print buried in the back, wouldn't want to highlight such an apocalyptic Obama Legacy)

8-years of Obama Legacy that implemented the US Military Sequestration and thereby ‘played nice with Putin’ and put the American People and Country at risk! And all the while running the debt up to $20-Trillion for his 'dependent society' at the expense of National Security.

Not to worry – remember ‘The Cold War was over’ as Obama explained to the American people and mocked Romney during the debate to the delight of the left-wing and PravdaMedia.

What If There Was A Christmas Riot In Roanoke And Nobody Knew?

Why lack of coverage not clear, however, could be the embarrassment of having the Virginia AG here for a ‘anti-violence-thing’ just last week.

Liberal Democrats Playing The Anti-Christian Card At Christmas

-
Dems challenge Trump judicial nominee over Knights of Columbus membership

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/harris-and-hirono-question-federal-judicial-nominee-over-knights-of-columbus-membership

(may have to copy-paste link into browser to view fox article)

“Sens. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, raised concerns about Omaha-based lawyer Brian Buescher's membership as part of the Senate Judiciary Committee's review of his nomination by President Trump to sit on the U.S. District Court in Nebraska, as first reported by the Catholic News Agency.”

“Kathleen Blomquist, a spokesperson for the Knights of Columbus, blasted the questions by Hirono and Harris as a throwback to past anti-Catholic rhetoric.

“Our country’s sad history of anti-Catholic bigotry contributed to the founding of the Knights of Columbus, and we are proud of the many Catholics who overcame this hurdle to contribute so greatly to our country,” she told the CNA.

Blomquist added: “We were extremely disappointed to see that one’s commitment to Catholic principles through membership in the Knights of Columbus—a charitable organization that adheres to and promotes Catholic teachings—would be viewed as a disqualifier from public service in this day and age.””

Would these Liberal Democrats question Muslim candidates over their Muslim religion and associated organizations? We think NOT!

It’s noteworthy that none of the media anti-Christ, anti-Christmas, anti-Easter bobbling-heads ever chose to express anti-Muslim comments in-spite-of Sharia's conflicts with American beliefs and laws.

Apparently these ‘Brave anti-Christ Crusaders’ have reflected on the Charlie Hebdo event and chosen to just focus on the docile meek Christians --- no risk bullying them!

Ending The Afghan Expeditionary War

Roanoke Times, 12-22-2018, Pg N&W 1, 3: Afghan generals worry about US withdrawal.

https://www.roanoke.com/news/world/wire/a-blow-to-morale-afghan-generals-worry-about-us-withdrawal/article_aa7b4cd8-6ae7-5a7f-befe-bb2a0e0e5197.html

“Trump had campaigned for president on a promise to end the Afghan war, which has already cost Americans nearly $1 trillion. More than 2,400 American soldiers have also died in Afghanistan since the 2001 U.S.-led invasion.”

14,000 US troops still in Afghanistan after 17-years of our blood and treasure!

The reality is that the Afghan government has failed to win the hearts and minds of their people. Compounding the problem is the reality that this is a fractured society (another case of diversity death syndrome), a militant tribal society, conflicting Sunni Shia religions all compounded by great outside forces from Iran and Pakistan.

The US military command is understandably very disturbed with Trump’s decision to start a major withdrawal. They have asked and commanded our troops to give their all to this endeavor.

The bitter pill: yet another war without a clear and concise win!

The prognosis is not bright for the people of Afghanistan.

Democrats just shut-up already – you had your turn at bat!

Syria Withdrawal The Obama Legacy

The result of Obama’s ‘lead from behind’ decisions is that Syria is now dominated by Putin, Turkey and Iran with their major ground forces and land and sea bases and the latest anti-aircraft systems.

These are the fruits of Obama’s tenure --- NOT Trump!

The Syrian BottomLine: Obama gone – Assad still there!

Message to Democrats: just shut-up already – you had your turn at bat!

Going forward with 2,000 US troops on the ground and needing to ask for permission to fly in Putin’s no-fly-zone is NOT a plan for success going forward!

Migrants At The Border Intruders At Your Door

12-22-2018: Congress searches for deal to end partial government shutdown

https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/22/politics/government-shutdown-day-1/index.html
-
-
Why do we need a ‘barrier’ at the border?

Why do we need a door with a lock at our home entry?

With no effective border barrier migrants can step into the US. With the Democrat-Kennedy Law they then are catch-and-released into wherever they want to go within the US, with some returning for a hearing in two to three years.

Suppose the same rules applied to home intruders breaking into your home.

The cops come but instead of arresting them, they give the intruders a court appearance order due in two to three years.

The intruders then have full occupancy of your house!

Maybe they’ll go to the hearing in two years, maybe not.

It’s nice in your house – lots of good reasons to stay.

If it turns out that they are violent, they will be shielded by a sanctuary law.

If you object, you are labeled a really bad person.

Anyone see a problem here?

A Pathetic Meeting On Roanoke Crime Pandemic

Va. Attorney General comes to Roanoke to talk about ‘hate crimes’.

That’s Roanoke’s BIG crime problem --- Really?

For its size category – Roanoke has one of the highest crime rates not just in Virginia but in the country and the ‘hate’ thing is trivial compared to the long-ongoing total crime pandemic.

Apparently the good news is that the Roanoke Times, ACLU and BLMers didn’t turn the whole thing into a trash the cops fest!

If this is the Va. AG and Roanoke leadership’s anti-crime focus, there’s little hope for improvement and particularly the black community will continue to suffer the most and lose the most.

How sad! Shades of Chicago and other sad examples.

“Roanoke, VA crime analytics. With a crime rate of 46 per one thousand residents, Roanoke has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities.

Roanoke Times, 12-18-2018, Bus Pg 6: DOW plunges again while Fed raises rates again

For eight long years the Obama-FED keep rates at virtual zero!

Now they are greeting Trump with the fourth rate increase this year!

Obama maintained that his $20-trillion debt was Not a problem. Of course not, not with interest rates at Zero!

Obama’s Zero rates have been a disaster for seniors who instead of reaping reasonable returns on their savings – seniors have been eating their seed corn – depleting those savings.
Obama And FED Forcing Retired People InTo The Poverty Society

But alas, now that Trump’s economy is gaining ground on 8-years of economic malaise, with no significant inflation in sight, the FED is raising rates that stifles consumer spending, housing investment and business expansion, all accompanied by major hits to the stock market.

Apparently Obama’s FED-Resist Movement is getting ready for the 2020 election season! You Think?

Of course the economy is going to ‘slow-down’ with four interest rate hikes this year and more to come in 2019!

FED-Trucker:

I added 4-tons to the load -- we’re slowing down – wonder why?

A New York CongressWoman Walks Into A Bar

-
Jack walked into a sports bar around 9:58 pm. He sat down next to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at the bar, and both looked up at the TV as the 10:00 news came on. The news crew was covering a story of a man on a ledge of a large building preparing to jump.

Alexandria turned to Jack and said, "Do you think he'll jump?"

Jack said, "You know what, I bet he will."

Alexandria replied, "Well, I bet he won't."

Jack placed $30 on the bar and said, "You're on!"

Just as she placed her money on the bar, the jumper did a swan dive off of the building, falling to his death. She was very upset and handed her $30 to Jack, saying,

"Fair's fair... Here's your money."

Jack replied, "I can't take your money, I saw this earlier on the 5 o'clock news and knew he would jump."

Alexandria replied, "I did too; but I didn't think he'd do it again."

Jack took the money. Alexandria went back to represent New Yorkers at the US Congress....

Comey: Trump’s Fault FBI Degraded

Comey slams Trump, 'shameful' House Republicans after 2nd Capitol Hill meeting

https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/17/politics/james-comey-congress-fbi/index.html

After the Monday meeting with Congress, Comey was flailing at those who simply wanted some straight answers.

Why did Hillary and her gang get mass immunity instead of grand juries, subpoenas under oath, and indictments for malfeasance in the cases of the Top Secret Emails, massive foreign contributions to Hillary’s slush fund, and the 20% of US uranium ore to Putin?

Also, how did so many top leaders of the FBI participate in a political anti-trump jihad including the unethical launch of the ‘collusion’ investigation of a political candidate with false data presented to a FISA court?

How can it be Trump’s fault that six of the top FBI leadership have been canned, replaced or reassigned deeper into the swamp?
These were Comey's Top Team -- Not Trump's!
