Another week of absurdity.

Progressive Economics - STOP COMPLAINING
A couple of days ago I wrote about the new narrative where Progressive Media Elites tell us that we're too prosperous and should stop complaining about inflation. After all, Joe is the best Pres EVER and inflation will help propel us to a utopian green future.

Well, here's another one.

Michelle Singletary, a WaPo columnist, says the economy is great and y'all should just stop complaining about inflation and shortages. I quote:"There is a great deal of Americans where it is uncomfortable that they're spending more, but they are not gonna go under. You've got to stop complaining ... you still have your job" she goes on to say... "[Because of inflation] you may only have $2 Million instead of $3."

What an arrogant POS. But don't take my word for it... click the pic to hear the whole rant. I do like the antique typewriters in the background... makes her look like a real journalist.

The End of PB&J
The United States Air Force has given up on actually fighting wars and is busy reinventing military rations. Introducing the new war-fighter-approved PB&J. It consists of broiled sweet-potato slices, peanut butter and bananas or blueberries on top.

I'm sure it's delicious... I think our soldiers deserve the best, nutritious food. I'm just not sure this belongs on the battlefield. Click the pic, even the Military Times thinks this is pathetic.

From this..........

... To this .... in just 80 years

Honestly... I'm sure the Chinese are deterred by our culinary superiority.

Anchors Away
While the US Air Force is working on snack superiority, the United States Navy is focused on projecting pronoun power. This is an actual Navy training video... it is so embarrassing.

Roe V Wade Meltdown
I've said this before but it's worth repeating. I'm not getting into the pro-abortion vs pro-life debate. I'm not a lawyer, priest or biologist so I'm simply not qualified to add anything to the debate.

BUT, I feel totally qualified to mock hypocrisy and absurdity. The picture on the left is a dangerous domestic terrorist from the Jan 6th 'insurrection'.

The picture on the right is a call for 'extreme violence' against churches and pregnancy centers.

Of course, Jane's Revenge could be a hoax or a publicity stunt. So far, the demonstrations have been mostly peaceful.... we will see if Progressives are civilized people in the weeks ahead.

I don't understand why AOC isn't being arrested for inciting violence since vandalism and arson have already started.. (Click the pic)

I'm So Afraid

6/25/2022

I'm not actually sure what this Progressive Urban Socialist is pissed about. I'll assume it's probably RvW since they refer to "radical Christians" and "backward ass rural conservatives".

I'm always amused when 'educated' people imagine that they are superior to "disillusioned redneck/white trash/blue collar types". So intelligent, elite and arrogant.

These are the same folks who worship WaPo and believe Joe is doing a great job.

The best part of the post from this courageous soy-person is "I'm not the organizing type. But maybe some who is can organize..."

This particular Tweet was deleted quickly. If this was one isolated nut-case I wouldn't bother to write about it. But I have read (without exaggeration) 100's of deranged posts calling for burning the Supreme Court, burning churches or other violence. I just don't understand why Twitter allows posts that clearly violate their standards.

I have a thought for @ripitthrowaway.

Scarcity Report

6/25/2022

Aluminum - About To Get Worse
Producing aluminum is extremely energy intensive. neoterra.us/blog/self-inflicted-scarcity-part-1

Aluminum production in Europe and China has been cut back due to the rising cost of energy, though China is rapidly building more coal-fired power-plants to keep their economy strong.

Century Aluminum, is shutting down its Hawesville, KY facility due to escalating energy prices. This is the largest producer of high purity aluminum in North America and one of the only plants able to produce aircraft-grade aluminum. 628 employees will lose their jobs and the United States will lose its domestic supply of this strategic metal.

In the meantime, the Biden Administration continues its war on domestic energy production. Good job, Joe.... best economy ever.

Energy
Green Germany has decided to reopen CO2 belching coal-fired power plants.

Of course they say it's Putin's fault. In reality... this is what happens when a country tries to run a modern economy on sunshine and unicorn farts (i.e. wind). Click the pic for more.

Elitism - Inflation Ate Your Free Lunch

6/24/2022

Wow!... This almost belongs in Clown World, but it is so dishonest and clueless that it deserves its own segment.

Does anyone reading this segment really believe they've been enjoying a 'free lunch' for the last 30 years??

Allison Schrager, a genius (Senior Fellow) at Bloomberg, has jumped on the 'inflation ain't so bad bandwagon'. This is the new emerging narrative to convince Progressives that the Biden shitshow is totally awesome before the midterms. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2022-06-22/inflation-ate-your-free-lunch-but-you-re-still-better-off?cmpid=socialflow-facebook-view&cmpid%3D=socialflow-twitter-view#xj4y7vzkg

"Believe it or not, we live in the best of times.... generally, most people experienced huge gains in living standards. We shudder to think what life was like in the 1980s or 90s, when air-conditioning was still a luxury as were dishwashers; people had to defrost their freezers, we were tied to landlines, and homes had only one or two televisions — and they weren’t even flatscreens."

This is total bullshit that can only be believed by people too young to have actually lived in the 80's-90's and too lazy to check the facts. Generally, most people have NOT experienced huge gains in living standards. Why doesn't Twitter cancel Bloomberg for lies and mis-information??

I do NOT shudder to think about how primitive we were in the 80's. I assure you....we had air-conditioning, dishwashers, frost-free freezers, jet travel and vacations in the Caribbean.

It's true that we were mostly tied to landlines... I got my first cell-phone in 1990 and it was a satchel that weighed as much as a cement block.

OMG, we didn't have flatscreens.. the horror! How did we survive TV before flatscreens?

SUCK IT UP UNGRATEFUL PEASANTS. You've had a free lunch for far too long..
... AND IT HAD TO END SOMETIME.

Winning

6/24/2022

Summer has arrived and perhaps it is the start of Winning Season.

The 2nd Reaffirmed
On his own birthday, Clarence Thomas (and SCOTUS) gave the American People a present by overturning the unconstitutional New York law that restricts possession of a firearm outside the home.

As a matter of full disclosure, all states allow concealed carry outside the home with various, state-by-state requirements and restriction. (as an aside, Illinois was the last state to allow concealed carry after being forced to do so by the 7th Circuit Court in 2013 www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-guns-illinois-idUSBRE9680ZB20130709 ).

The New York law was struck down because it required a lawful citizen to show they have "proper cause" to carry. The new decision affirms that the 2nd is a right and that a citizen shall not be required to demonstrate need to exercise a right. Of course felons, juveniles and the mentally incompetent are already prohibited from possessing firearms, so the New York law was nothing more than an additional hurdle imposed on the law-abiding.

Contrary to Progressive Propaganda (aka mis-information), this decision does NOT allow anyone to freely carry in public. States may still require background checks, training and/or licensing.

In any case, Progressives are going insane (click the pic).

Tulsi Gabbard summarizes the new ruling better than I can.

You can read the entire 135 page ruling here: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-843_7j80.pdf

Bicycles and Bullets

6/20/2022

As we all know, Joe fell off his bike last week. Fortunately he wasn't injured.

We also know that Dems have spent years (and millions of hours of media air time) demonizing evil semi-automatic 'weapons of war'. I know these are unrelated subjects but it got me thinking... what is a greater threat to life and safety? Are evil semi-automatic rifles more deadly than bicycles?

I like FACTS, so here they are: According to the National Safety Council (click the pic) there were 1260 bicycle related deaths in 2020. There were also over 425,000 serious injuries that required Emergency Room treatment.

According to the FBI, there were a total of 364 people killed with rifles (of all types) in 2019. In other words, you are almost 4 times more likely to die from a bicycle than a rifle.

If the Democrats were really concerned about your safety they would be passing legislation to take deadly 'assault bicycles' off our streets.... for the children.

You don't have to wait for Congress to act on the deadly bicycle menace. Do Your Part!... Trade your bike for an AR-15.

"Behind every BIG lie, there is a little truth"
- Mark@neoTerra

A New Pandemic
Here's a sign from a local Georgia restaurant struggling to get back on its feet. A picture is worth 1000 words. The best economic recovery ever... right Joe???

A Strange Coincidence
Alexa, when is pride month? "Pride Month is the month of June"
Alexa. when is men's health month? "Men's Health Month is the month of June"

No Hope For Progressives
Folks, if you want to understand the core of arrogant, delusional elitism in America all you have to do is watch 5 minutes of The View.

In a discussion about potential 2024 presidential candidates, Sunny Hostin mocked Trump and Florida Governor 'DeathSantis'. That doesn't bother me... the 'celebrities' are paid for ratings.

However she goes on to say... "I like Gavin Newsom because he's really pretty to look at and I think he does a great job in California." Wow!... a GREAT job in California.

She then goes on to say: "I like a Kamala and Pete Buttigieg ticket... I hope this country is ready for something like that. I think the brain power alone would just obliterate Trump or DeathSantis."

How on Terra does anyone use the words 'brain power' and 'Kamala' in the same sentence?? The really sad part is the applause from the Progressive Bobble-heads in the audience.

Click the pic to watch the segment. CAUTION: images of Whoopi... avert your eyes... you have been warned.

The Wall Is Too High
It's ALL Trump's fault. You cannot make this shit up!

NBC News (who are never biased) just published a piece whining about how illegal immigrants, entering our country illegally, are falling off the border wall... and getting hurt. Honestly, I don't want to see people getting hurt but maybe it is their fault for climbing the wall.

Over 3 Million illegals have flooded into our country since Biden canceled completion of the wall and crapped all over ICE. (I'm not making this up, here are the official statistics: www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/southwest-land-border-encounters

To put this into perspective, that is greater than the population of entire states such as Arkansas, Mississippi, Kansas, etc.

Maybe Biden's policies are the problem... but the NBC headline reads "Migrants are falling off Trump's 30-foot steel wall".

Hypocrisy at it's finest. (click the pic).

The Fourth Jab
Dr. Anthony Fauci, father of the Fauci Flu, has come down with COVID in spite of being double jabbed, double boosted and double masked. Ironic isn't it?

In related news, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, has caught COVID a second time!. Wow, double jabbed, double boosted and double COVID.

Trust the science.

Sheep
The Progressives (who are very wise and elite) believe that all conservatives are low-information sheep... a bunch of ignorant, rural rustics unable to comprehend science or society.

You know the types... the folks who have been jabbed four times, wear a mask when they're alone in the car and who blame ME when they get COVID (though I don't live anywhere near their glorious city).

Here is an example to enlighten your day. Dr. Greg Kelly has constructed a HEPA Isolation stroller (aka Pram) to protect his 6-month old from the horrors of Omicron. I'd like to think it's satire but it's a very lengthy thread. Can you imagine putting your kid in this to go OUTSIDE? (click the pic).

Apparently a Chinese woman ( @RealSexyCyborg ) came up with the idea first. twitter.com/RealSexyCyborg/status/1495615637204393984

Inflation, Famine and The Biden Bubble

6/18/2022

The Biden Recovery
Every time I hear Biden brag about his great economic recovery I want to scream or puke. Fortunately, I'm rather rational so I do a bit of research and write an article instead. (big pat on the back).

I've written about the fake Biden recovery previously so I won't repeat it all here. Biden has NOT created a single job. In fact, there are still about 1 Million fewer people employed than in 2019.

On top of that, Biden has intentionally destroyed energy independence, Mayor Pete has allowed the supply-chain crisis to languish and Kamala has looked the other way while an invasion is taking place on our border.

Reality Check
I know... right now you are saying 'Hey Mr. Terra, you're just a low-information Biden Basher". So, I'm compelled to beat you up with FACTS.

The Biden Bubble
Honestly, I know I cannot convince the Progressives that Biden is INTENTIONALLY destroying our country. The best I can do is to illustrate how his administration is destroying our savings, pensions and prosperity. (BTW I just invented the term Biden Bubble so I hope y'all give me some credit).

Here we go!!

I know it's hard to read in the image. When Joe took office the DGI was at $31K. It closed on Friday (06/16/2022) below $29k. In other words the DOW has lost 3% since Joe took office (not counting 10% inflation, Oh My). A 13% loss in actual value should tell you there IS NO ECONOMIC RECOVERY.

Please note the HUGE bulge in between... the market hit $35k intermittently. With the Dems controlling the House, the Senate and the Oval Office, Wall street was confident that the government would continue to print TRILLIONS of $$. The market had a buying frenzy... I call it the Biden Bubble.

If you believe that most of that money went to COVID relief then you have your head in the sand. The average American family got less than $3,000 in relief. I am being generous to say there were about 100 Million eligible people/families. Thus, the citizens got roughly $300 Billion out of Trillions that disappeared.

The rest went to folks like Blackrock, so they could compete with you trying to buy a home. This is a FACT.

Perhaps you think I'm cherry-picking ... that the DOW was an anomaly. Well, I suppose it is... because the DOW got hammered the least. If you were heavily invested in NASDAQ your investments have lost almost 30% under Joe (in spite of the big speculative bubble in between).

The NASDAQ is truly in the outhouse right now.

REALITY
The Great Biden Recovery is one of the biggest lies in human history. Sadly, educated Progressives believe it, suck it up and celebrate Joe's brilliant success.

I hope that you can see the last 15 months have been a Progressive speculative bubble. I'm not sure if the Biden Bubble has actually burst yet... but it certainly looks like it is finally deflating.

If you got out early then inflation has devalued your cash savings by about 10%. If you stayed in the market then you lost even more... your 401k or pension fund has lost more than 13%.

The next 12 months will be a roller coaster. There will be shortages in America and famines in poor nations later this year. It will fill the news going up to the midterms... and it will all be blamed on TRUMP, COVID and Putin.

The reality is that Joe lit the fuse and Joe is making the impending starvation of millions worse by diverting corn (food) into ethanol (fuel) in a desperate attempt to shave a few cents off gas prices before the midterms. He should be held accountable for all of the famine and death that occurs in the next 12 months.

The poor are hit hard but they have nothing left to lose.
The Billionaires running Davos are getting more wealthy by the hour
You and I, in the middle-class, are losing prosperity week-by-week.

Conclusion
The Biden Bubble made everyone think that the Green New Deal and Build Back Better would work out. But it was a Grand Deception.

The WEF, the UN and the Progressive Urban Socialists (PUS) that control the Democrat Party are intentionally destroying the American middle class.

There is no safe haven and nowhere to hide. We must remove them from power in November.

Sustaining Liberty - Winning

6/18/2022

Some signs that the tide may be turning.

Mayra Flores
The Texas 34th District held a special election to replace Dem Filemon Vela, who resigned. The region has long been a bastion of Democrat rule... It was the site of the last battle of Democrat Confederates against the Union in the Civil War and has been held by the Democrat Party since 1870, www.historynet.com/battle-of-palmetto-ranch-american-civil-wars-final-battle/

Mayra won the largely Hispanic district by a 12% lead over Dem Dan Sanchez. Mayra is not only the first republican to win the district in 150 years, she is also the first Mexican-born woman to be elected to Congress (she is a legal immigrant who came here as a child). AND, she is also the first Republican that Elon Musk has ever voted for.

CNN hates her (click the pic). Since this was a special election, Mayra will have to run for re-election in November. The Dems openly brag about gerrymandering the district to make it more friendly to the Democrat Party. I quote: "she will be up for election for a full term in November against Democratic Rep. Vicente Gonzalez, who is shifting from the 15th Congressional District. The redrawn 34th District is considerably friendlier to Democrats"

Let's hope that Elon continues his considerable support. You can contribute here: www.mayrafloresforcongress.com/about-mayra/

Chesa Boudin Recall
In the midst of spiraling crime, San Francisco voters have ousted Chesa Boudin, the soft-on-crime DA, in the middle of his first term.

The Guardian views Mr. Boudin as a champion of criminal justice reform... but it seems that the citizens don't agree. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jun/08/chesa-boudin-san-francisco-recall-analysis

As an aside, Boudin is one of many Progressive DAs financed by George Soros. The list includes:

Kim Foxx (Chicago), who releases murders based on 'mutual combat'
George Gascon (Los Angeles)
Larry Krasner (Philidelphia)
Alvin Bragg (Manhattan)

Tom Rice
Five-term incumbent, Tom Rice, was thrashed in his primary bid for re-election by Russell Fry, a state legislator. Progressives are wailing about the Red Wave coming in November.

The Scarcity Report

6/18/2022

I will continue to reiterate (and explain) that most of the shortages are self inflicted. Here are the latest.

Sriracha Sauce
According to Huy Fong Foods, the makers of the famous 'rooster' sauce, there is now a shortage of chili peppers. If you love sriracha you'd better stock up yesterday.

Personally, I prefer good old Louisiana Tabasco. Aged for up to three years in American white oak barrels, it is far superior to fake Asian pepper sauce from Kalifornia, which is aged for three days.

So, there is a fake shortage of chili peppers needed to make fake Asian pepper sauce .... but there is no shortage of traditional Tabasco. Maybe it's time to embrace tradition.

Energy
It's old news, but energy prices continue to climb. Of course, unaffordable fuel is a 'Good Thing' because it will accelerate our 'progress' to even less affordable 'clean energy'.
