The x-axis is the median age of the country’s population.
The y-axis is the average age of the politicians.
We need basic cognitive tests, term limits and age limits. All three of them.
I don’t give a shit how smart your Aunt Edna is at 90 years old – the huge majority of 90-year-olds are not of sound mind. They make airline pilots retire at 65, which sounds pretty good to me.
There is obviously a sweet spot – men (yes, MEN – women have done enough damage so let’s ban that whole idea) in their 50s have the life experience to make wise decisions but are not addled with dementia yet. Anyone under the age of 35 is too young to know wtf is going on in the world yet. Which is why that is the age minimum for President. That needs to be expanded to EVERYONE.
OH -and no foreign-born legislators or anyone with dual citizenship. Bye bye Ilhan Omarand Pramila Jayapal. Although those two would be banned anyways since they are female.
Can you imagine how incredible the country would be if we had 535 MEN like Thomas Massey and Rand Paul running things? Smart MEN who have achieved success in the real world? Christ, we’d be a global superpower once again! We’d have flying cars and shit.
Think of it:
#1 No more Nancy Pelosis – who has three strikes: female, old as shit, been there too long. Gone.
#2 No more AOC-types – she is a child, a moron and a woman. Gone.
#3 No more Greg Casars – too young and stupid. Gone.
Who else would be gone in our new system? Bernie Sanders, Chuck Grassley, Mitch McConnell, Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Maxine Waters, Dick Durbin, Richard Blumenthal, all the idiot chicks in The Squad, Mazie Hirono, Mitt Romney, Steny Hoyer.
All of the mentally ill women who are incapable of perceiving reality even if it beats them over the head. The Fitzharris and Garner-Doughty types. Again – no great loss. They shouldn’t be allowed to vote anyways. Just stay home and gaze at your navels.
The winners with my new system? True Americans. Old-school patriots.
It just hasn’t been a good week for the libshits, has it? The thought of Grady Lucas, Bruce Haywood, Stephanie Fitzharris and Comrade Clayton Tuckers’ heads exploding in disbelief is REALLY putting me in a good mood to start the week!
Clayton Tucker, who wants to government to run EVERYTHING, is very upset that unelected moron bureaucrats cannot control the lives of people anymore.
For those who don’t understand what Chevron Deference is, and why SCOTUS ended it, here’s the long and short of it:
A family fishing company, Loper Bright Enterprises, was being driven out of business, because they couldn’t afford the $700 per day they were being charged by the National Marine Fisheries Service to monitor their company.
The thing is, federal law doesn’t authorize NMFS to charge businesses for this. They just decided to start doing it in 2013.
Why did they think they could away with just charging people without any legal authorization? Because in 1984, in the Chevron decision, the Supreme Court decided that regulatory agencies were the “experts” in their field, and the courts should just defer to their “interpretation” of the law.
So for the past 40 years, federal agencies have been able to “interpret” laws to mean whatever they want, and the courts had to just go with it.
It was called Chevron Deference, and it put bureaucrats in charge of the country.
It’s how the OHSA was able to decide that everyone who worked for a large company had to get the jab, or be fired. No law gave them that authority, they just made it up.
It’s how the ATF was able to decide a piece of plastic was a “machine gun.”
It’s how the NCRS was able to decide that a small puddle was a “protected wetlands.”
It’s how out-of-control agencies have been able to create rules out of thin air, and force you to comply, and the courts had to simply defer to them, because they were the “experts”.
Imagine if your local police could just arrest you, for any reason, and no judge or jury was allowed to determine if you’d actually committed a crime or not. Just off to jail you go. That’s what Chevron Deference was.
It was not only blatantly unconstitutional, it caused immeasurable harm to everyone.
Thankfully, it’s now gone. And small-dick, power-hungry bureaucrats (like Comrade Clayton Tucker aspires to be) have been neutered. It is a GREAT DAY in America.
We haven’t even begun to feel the effects of this decision in the courts. It will be used, for years to come, to roll back federal agencies, and we’ll all be better off for it.
And that’s why politicians and corporate media are freaking out about it.
Obama’s tweet supporting Joe Biden was disingenuous. In private, Obama is telling people Biden can’t win, and he is therefore in favor of an open convention. Obama will not say whom he supports, nor as of yesterday afternoon had he met personally with Biden to deliver the message.
Relations between the Obamas and the Bidens have never been warm. At times they’ve been hostile. But recently they’ve deteriorated further, mostly due to Jill Biden. In the hours and days after the debate, she kept her husband cloistered away from anyone who might convince him to drop out. Jill Biden is the driving force behind her husband’s reelection campaign, just as she was in 2020, when other members of the familyconsidered him too impaired to run. The next generation of potential Democratic candidates understands all this as an opportunity and they’re circling, particularly Gretchen Whitmer, who is promoting herself aggressively.
Well, well, well – what have we here? Yen ANOTHER AWFL (Angry White Female Liberal) who cannot see reality! They’re everywhere, aren’t they? Messing things up.
MY thoughts on this?
Jill Biden has no idea who she is fucking with. The Powers That Be are the ones who MADE Joe Biden. They handed him the presidency in 2020 (cheating), they pulled him from obscurity (he ran for prez twice before and never got more than 1%) and they have protected his secret of dementia for 3.5 years. They did all of this because they KNOW they can control him with the mountain of dirt and corruption they have on him. Quid Pro Joe.
That means they can STILL control him. Jill Biden be damned. Jill can ignore reality (her husband is a vegetable) but she cannot ignore the CONSEQUENCES of ignoring reality – which will be evident very soon.
When you hear ALL of the MSM outlets calling for Joe to get out just hours after the debate, you KNOW they have been sent their marching orders. It’s plain to see. It’s as obvious as when the ENTIRE MSM was chanting “pandemic of the unvaccinated” all suddenly at the same time in 2021. Obama and whoever else is pulling strings has made the decision to cut Joe loose. The only one who doesn’t get it is a delusional AWFL Jill Biden.
So how do the Powers That Be get rid of Joe? I expect we will hear increasingly disturbing leaks about how bad it is. Maybe they start getting into all the pants shitting he does. Maybe they even leak some embarrassing pictures of the pants shitting.
They ALREADY made a major leak just days after the debate:
I think the leaks will eventually get so bad (they HAVE to to get him out of there over Jill’s protestations) that everyone will be forced to question if he’s fit to be president NOW. Which may even lead to an early resignation.
We shall see. I’m either going to look like an idiot or Nostradamus on this call. But to me, it seems very obvious what “they” need to do to Joe now. I almost feel sorry for the bastard. Almost.
Unbelievable. But not surprising. Remember that local America-hating commie Clayton Tucker (Chairman of the Lampasas Democrat Marxist Party) adores and worships this piece of shit. They all have one thing in common: hatred of America and the desire to burn it all down and replace it with their socialist utopia.
This is what happens when you illegally import tens of millions of third-world dirt bags. They all cluster together like turds in a toilet bowl in a single Congressional district and start electing other turds to U.S. Congress. Next thing you know, you’re outnumbered.
Funny that in this photo of six huge haters of America, local socialist tapeworm Clayton Tucker has selfies with HALF of them!
Wow. They only had NINE MONTHS to get their shit together between the end of last pool season and the start of this one. Still couldn’t do it.
Last Thursday, they closed it at the last second for “unforeseen circumstances.” When I asked the City secretary what that meant, I got zero response. So I’m guessing it was something embarrassing they are refusing to divulge. Otherwise, why not admit it was “staffing shortages” once again?
[UPDATED 7/1 – it was a burned out pump motor! So…why not just say that? Idiots]
Somebody needs to get chewed out over this. Ultimately, it falls on the pointy head of City Manager DeGraffenreid – who makes over $200,000 per year in salary and benefits yet has been fucking up the pool situation for the last FOUR YEARS!! The guy started out as a YMCA Director, so you’d think he might have a grasp of this kind of thing. Not to mention he’s been on the Lampasas tit for about 13 years now. And you STILL can’t get it right? Sad.
Or maybe it is the fault of the oddly named “Sundae Hein” who is supposedly in charge of the pools. She’s doing a pretty shitty job of it, from my standpoint.
If you keep having staffing shortagesyou need to RAISE THE WAGE, as I have yelled from a hill for four years now. They FINALLY understood that $7.50/hr was a joke but from what the lifeguards told me last week, it’s now still only $12. STILL a far cry from the $15 it should be.
This isn’t 2021. You can’t blame Covid stimmies and a tight labor market anymore. Things are DEFINITELY softer in the labor market and $15 will get you what you need.
There are roughly 6 lifeguards on duty for six hours, five days a week. The pool is open about 10 weeks (also sad). That works out to 300 x 6 lifeguard hours, roughly. Or 1800 hours. A three dollar raise will cost you $5,400.
Yes, $5,400 in a City budget that is in the tens of millions of dollars. Hell, they wasted $45,000 on the failed Industrial Pork project and have zero to show for it. You could afford NINE YEARS of increased wages for that.
They also handed Mercer $20,000 for a “life safety grant” but don’t have $5,400 to pay local kids to work at the pool for the summer? What gigantic ASSHOLES you are!
So let’s take a look at the last nine days:
Sunday June 23: Closed (used to be open on Sundays in the old days)
Monday June 24: Closed (always been closed on Mondays – maintenance, etc)
Tuesday June 25: open as usual
Wednesday June 26: open as usual
Thursday June 27: CLOSED (‘unforeseen circumstances’ **UPDATED** burnt-out pump motor)
Friday June 28: open as usual
Saturday June 29: CLOSED (staffing shortages)
Sunday June 30: CLOSED (used to be open in the old days)
Monday July 1: CLOSED (scheduled closed as always)
Absolutely pathetic. It’s been closed TWICE as often as it has been open – and during brutal heat indexes, too!
But don’t worry, all the clowns involved will get a 4% raise across the board here in a couple of months.
Even the most deluded radical lefties are now admitting Biden has lost his marbles. This was obvious years ago, but remember: the Angry White Female Liberals (AWFLs) like Stephanie Fitzharris, Julie Landrum and Carol Garner-Doughty cannot perceive reality. They ignore it in favor of their own warped ‘reality,’ such as “men can menstruate” or two 21-year-old girls can move a piano up the stairs because, like, Boss Girl!
However, you cannot ignore the CONSEQUENCES of ignoring reality. That consequence is Trump getting back into the White House (currently 60% chance). Ignoring reality for the last 3 years has painted them into a very tight corner.
So what happens next?
I won’t admit how many hours I’ve spent analyzing betting sites the last 24 hours. The markets started jumping around again yesterday evening. Supposedly Biden is meeting with his inner circle TODAY to figure out how to fix this train wreck. The only thing in their way is yet another AWFL: Jill Biden. Taco Jill herself is clinging to power right til the end despite the obvious. Kind of like Diane Feinstein or John McCain.
The other big problem is that even if they can convince Jill/Joe to drop out of the race NOW, who are they going to install in his place? Their bench is not very deep.
Kamala is a low-IQ, highly annoying DEI hire who literally sucked dicks to get where she is. The Big Money people in the Democrat Party know she is a dumpster fire and apparently want nothing to do with her. Remember during the primaries in 2019? She was pulling about 1% in the polls. Team Trump also has access to about 100 hours of video of Kamala doing interviews and sounding like an absolute moron while making cackling noises that put any normal human on edge. There is a reason she has been a long-shot to win this entire time.
Only the most retarded virtue-signaling idiots think that this is a good choice.
As of this morning, here is the most likely scenario according to betting markets:
Some time in the next month (it can’t be too soon, or it will be obvious this is all because of Joe’s horrendous debate performance) Joe will resign from the presidency “for the good of the country” due to an undisclosed medical issue. This is an easy sell, since he is clearly going downhill fast. I’d be surprised if he is alive a year from now.
Kamala steps in and gets to be the First Female President EVER! She also now has a few months to show what she can do. Maybe they get a promise out of her to NOT seek the nomination in August…maybe they don’t. Kamala is just as power-hungry as the rest of them. I doubt she’ll go quietly unless promised a cushy job like Supreme Court Justice or something.
Meanwhile, the snakes at the DNC will need to figure out the mechanics of swapping Joe off of all those ballots and installing someone else. Bernie Sanders fans will understand how easy it is, since Hillary pulled a similar stunt pushing Bernie aside for the 2016 election. I don’t pretend to understand all the arcane rules the DNC uses, but rest assured, it will all be decided in smokey back rooms. So much for that “protecting democracy” they love to yammer about!
Now they need to install someone. The common thinking is that Newsom is a no-go because he is an “evil white male” and the libshits are all-in on only picking women and minorities for everything these days. They are so myopic about this, they’ll keep doing it even as it sinks their own boat.
Who’s left? Gretchen Whitmer is a name that keeps getting bandied about – and she has definitely popped in the betting markets. Of course, most of America has no cue who she is except the for being the center of an FBI set-up and for being an extreme authoritarian lock-down twat during Covid. She’s also still a longshot at around 30-1.
Then there is still Big Mike – Michelle Obama…who may, or may not, have a penis swinging around down there. Mike has said REPEATEDLY that he has no interest in running. Of course, they all say that. The dems have very little time to work this. Michelle ticks all the boxes and every libshit will be reassured that his wife Barack will be in the background whispering in Big Mike’s ear the entire four years. Obama has zero track record and therefore, nothing for Trump to attack on. Trump also risks looking like a “racist asshole” if he goes after Big Mike too hard. The Dem convention is in Chicago and the Obamas got their start where?
Oh, then we still have Hillary out there, flapping her leathery wings and circling around. I would not count THAT possibility entirely out, either. HillDog has gone from 200-1 down to 40-1 at a few places. So clearly some punters think she is at least worth a long-shot lotto ticket.
We all know what the best line of the debate was…..
We had a fantastic time watching Biden get murdered on national TV at Memos. Nobody got into a fist fight or anything! Apparently that is a concern over at Lampasas Beer Market, which made us miss the first 15 minutes of the debate because they refused to show it due to the “political nature” and possibility of a fight (?). Funny that they will allow Oklahoma and UT fans watch the same football game and not worry about a fight but letting us watch the debate (after SPECIFICALLY getting prior approval from the owner) was just too much to risk.
Sad, because I liked Lampasas Beer Market. Gonna have to boycott for the rest of the year, at least. Only way they will learn. We’re talking about the fate of the Republic here and you’re worried about people arguing? Total bullshit.
You know who goes out and spends money and tips well? Conservatives. You know who has no money and lives with their parents? Libshits. You better know where your bread is buttered.
My sack never lies. The degree to which it is sticking to my leg gives me a solid indication of how useless the billions of dollars in pinwheels will be today.
And from the way it was acting this morning while loading my piece of shit mower onto my trailer before it was even 9am, today is going to see about 97% of the state’s $83 billion in wind power sit useless, once again.
Pool already closed on Sunday and Monday of this week? Check.
Heat index of close to 110 today? Check.
Perfect day to hit the pool? Check.
Kids loaded up with towels, sunscreen, extra clothes and squishy ball for hitting whiney fat chick with? Check.
A gaggle of incompetent morons running things over there? CHECK!
Good thing they added the “no water aerobics” to the sign that already says the pool is closed. Otherwise, a bunch of people might stand there staring the obviously-deserted pool wondering if they might do water aerobics in the Campbell Park toilets instead.
