One Year In...

 Good early morning to everyone, especially to Curt Cignetti, who has successfully turned what was a traditional basketball school into a football school with their triumph over Miami last night. Congrats, Hoosiers. Before the game, as the "Star-Spangled Banner" played, the cameras at Hard Rock Stadium cut to a shot of the Petulant Toddler in Chief, to a mixed reaction. Which reminded me that we are now exactly one year into Trump's second term, and to call this administration of Keystone Cops a shit show wouldn't do it any justice whatsoever, and folks this seems to be the general consensus around the world.

Seriously, covering Trump if you're a journalist (unless it's Fox "News") has been more than annoying and exhausting, and it's only getting worse because HE'S getting worse. Did you hear his latest presser outside Air Farce 1 (that's what I'm calling his plane while he's in office) last night? Batshit crazy stuff coming out of the man's piehole. Remember last year when I predicted on this very blog that Trump wouldn't make it for the entirety of this term? That still applies, but I'm now willing to bet his presidency doesn't survive the calendar year. 

This just in: Trump is threatening to send Army troops to Bloomington, Indiana if Curt Cignetti doesn't hand over Indiana's newly earned National Championship trophy. 

I just want to post blogs about music charts of days gone by, sports, and life in general. But these past two weeks have really been tough. 

Oh, by the way, about that ICE shooting. I am of the opinion that the wife of Renee Good bears some responsibility for what happened. Now does that justify his actions? Abso-freaking-lutely not. He was very thin-skinned and obviously less than qualified to be in such a position, however, the wife, obviously not knowing he was this way, didn't help the situation by taunting him and getting in his face. That's all I have to say about that.

Back to Trump though. He's leaving (or has left) for that economic conference in Davos this morning, and the way he's been carrying on about occupying Greenland in what is tantamount to what is called in the business world as a "hostile takeover," this should be a doozy.

And we're only one year in...

Happy New Year, Welcome To World War III

 Good afternoon, I'm more than a little bit late with this, but since I had to wait to have a procedure done in Tampa yesterday (isn't getting older fun?) I had to wait until now to say it...

...and no sooner than the calendar had been freshly turned, the United States, or rather Donald Trump's regime, sprung itself to a war with Venezuela. JFC.

Now, is Maduro in the words of Trump a "bad hombre?" Of course he is. But the way this administration has went about this capture and arrest, as well as the reasons we're being told Maduro was arrested, is totally bogus. It isn't about fentanyl, which is evil in its own right because there have been friends of mine that have been greatly affected by it. It isn't about cocaine either. It's about Venezuela's crude oil supply all for the purposes of making the American Oil Lobby richer. Remember George Carlin's line from that one comedy special he did about twenty years ago, in which he said, "it's a big club, and you're not in it" when he was talking about the rich and powerful? The American Oil Lobby is part of said club.

And now, Trump is bitching and whining about wanting to take over Greenland...again. Greenland was part of the Kingdom of Denmark long before the United States even came to existence. Furthermore, Denmark has been a long-standing ally of NATO. In the words of Scott Van Pelt, "what are we doing here?" Then again, Trump has never been a friend of NATO and totally wants to upset the "New World Order" applecart that George H.W. Bush spoke of in 1988. It seems like he wants the new axis of evil to be us, Russia, and China. Let me repeat that, US, Russia, and China, an axis of evil.

Folks, we're better than this. At least I thought we were. Because this isn't the same America that I gave six years of my life defending in the US Navy in the early 1990s. One such indicator is probably the obscenest "billboard" I have seen in my life, heading northbound on US 41 just north of Tampa. If you're from that area, and you know my world view, I think you know what I'm referring to.

But don't take my word for it, check our my reposts on my TikTok page (@bonyscribe1), especially from Former MLB agent Joshua Kusnick. There are other reposts I have on there sounding the alarm that World War III is impending.

Folks, it isn't impending, it's here. The world is at war. Buckle up buttercup.

I should have my normal flashback blog post sometime later in the week. But for now, 2026 is off to a rough start.
