Vote Red like your life depends on it...because it might
Vote Red like your life depends on it
Because it might
The Jetsons – where’s that? Why does air plane travel suck? Where’s the baby food? Why do beautiful places like California just not have electricity sometimes? Whoops no lights. Homeless people everywhere.
Its terrible policies and priorities. Democrats are to blame
· Crime – juvenile crime is outrageous. Shooter of Brian Robinson, one in front of Lee Zeldin’s house
· Inflation – remember inflation is transitory? Let’s have hearings on that. Who thought it and why? Let’s hear it
· BLM scam – every politician who supported the riots or supports bail reform. How about supporting victims?
· COVID everything – they shut down businesses and schools. All in the name of racial justice nonsense.
· They will lock you down again, they will discriminate on you based on your race especially if Asian or white. Go look up the lawsuit going on against Harvard right now. Its all about equity communism nonsense
· Democrats have shown themselves unfit to govern. They care more about LGBTQ++ “priorities” than you affording healthy food for your family.
· They care more about mutilating kids than the 100,000 overdoses against Americans
Kick them out. America is the greatest gift any people have been given. Let’s make it happen.

Good Morning Afghanistan! Meditations on my lifetime war
Today US troops leave Afghanistan, ending a war that started my freshman year of high school. How did we get here and what can we do to re-think western society?
I believe we need to have more soul, flow, and love back into society. We became a beacon of hope for the rest of the world by being aggressive and having rhythm, soul and flow as a nation. We need to get that back.

Good Morning, Afghanistan! Introduction and Episode One
On September 11, 2001, the TVs turned on in my high school cafeteria. I spent study hall watching the events unfold.
On August 15, 2021, the twitter notifications blew up as Afghanistan fell to the Taliban. This time, I did not notice right away as I was on paternity leave with my seven week old son.
Join me over the next twelve mornings for my twelve part mini-series:
Good Morning, Afghanistan!
I will cover international updates on the evolving #Afghanistan situation, as well as what it is like to change, feed, burp, walk around, soothe, put to sleep...and then repeat all over again for sixteen straight days while my beautiful girlfriend and mother of our son, Mirjana, gets some much needed R&R.
First episode is up! I rant a little bit. Being sleep deprived for the last five days has already started to mess with me. I have no idea what time it is and words are now hard.
Topics covered include the upcoming comedy/hopefully not tragedy of the women's rights movement vs. a 6th Century terrorist ideology, Uncle Pro Ject Pat comes to town, and why America needs to get it together.

When to say What the EFF
In honor of Da Bears saying what the eff and trading up to draft Justin Fields, here are three stories of when I have said what the eff.
All three led to fantastic results and illustrate:
1. You know less than you think
2. It is ok to live life on the edge
3. Go with your gut! Do some baseline thinking, but go with your gut Too many people, ESPECIALLY NOW, are living life too close to the vest. Makes moves!
