Oil, y’all? Texas tea?
Big Red Car here down in the Oil Patch of Austin By God Texas. OK, no oil wells in Austin, but I can get to some in half an hour.
So, we talked about Texas oil here:
Today, we talk about oil in the United States.
Big Red Car in the ATX, which is headed to 105F today – it looks like 112F on Monday. Hello, Texas summer! It hit 102F yesterday.
So, the entire kerfuffle of Putin – a despot – meeting with our president got me interested in the history of US-Russia summits. Turns out there is a lot of history which is pertinent to the subject.
What is particularly interesting to me is the first such summits.
The players were Stalin, Nikita Krushchev, Vice President Nixon, President Eisenhower, and President Kennedy.
Declassify what, Big Red Car?
Big Red Car here on a sultry Texas Sunday. Ahh, on Earth as it is in Texas, y’all.
I am tired of the continuing saga of the FBI, the DOJ, the Trump admin, the Congress, and the Mueller investigation.
There is a way to end all of the pissing and moaning “most rickety tick” (this is an Army saying meaning right way.)
Everybody in Washington, DC knows it, but only the President can make it happen.
The solution is very simple – DECLASSIFY AND RELEASE EVERYTHING.
That is where we are now.
Russian espionage, Big Red Car? Huh?
Big Red Car here on a lovely, cool, sunny ATX morning. Ahhh, breathe in the air of the last free state in the Union. On Earth as it is in Texas!
So, the Russians are engaged in espionage of the garden variety. Not the “collusion” kind, the real kind.
Wiley Russian spies looking for American secrets to purloin. Be on the lookout. Please note the skirt hems. A dead giveaway when dealing with Russian spies. Also, the footgear. Recent FSB grads getting ready to go out to the field.
Let me explain it to y’all.
Want to talk illegal immigration with the Big Red Car? Sure, why not?
Big Red Car here awaiting the rains. It is supposed to rain today, but who really knows? We love rain in Texas! On Earth as it is in Texas!
So, the Big Red Car is focused on actual policy decisions by the Trump administration rather than the latest twenty minute meeting between Jared or Don or Ivanka or Eric or Paul and somebody at the Russian Tea Room.
What the Big Red Car likes is the impact of the bully pulpit and policy on illegal immigration.
Russia, the Big Red Car is talking Russia today. Let me bottom line it, Russia is a punk.
Let me tell you why.
US GDP $17,947,000,000,000 — $18 TRILLION.
European Union GDP $16,220,000,000,000 — $16 TRILLION.
Russian GDP $1,324,000,000,000 — $1.3 TRILLION.
Italy GDP $1,815,757,000,000 — $1.8 TRILLION.
As you can see, the US and the EU (a fair approximation for NATO) has a GDP of $34 TRILLION v $1.3 TRILLION for Russia.
Hell, Italy is bigger than Russia!
Hello, world, you getting this? Russia is tiny when compared to the West. Hello, America!
Big Red Car here on a cloudy Texas day. This is a lot of clouds, y’all, but we like them. Syria and North Korea are a couple of lawless, outlaw regimes, but did you know they have had a relationship for years?
Syria is the bunch run by Bashar al Assad who has killed 500,000 of his countrymen, internally displaced 6,000,000 more, and turned 5,000,000 into refugees. [Can you imagine any scenario in which this shithead continues to run Syria?]
North Korea is the bunch run by Kim Jong Un whose family has lorded over his country like a penal colony and has literally starved them so badly that the average height of a North Korean has diminished three inches in the last forty years. [To be technically correct, a South Korean is, on average, three inches taller than a North Korean. Same gene pool, different nutrition.]
Kim Jong Un — a fat, expando-pants wearing guy who hasn’t missed a meal in a while, no? This is a guy who starves his people while spending the nation’s wealth on developing nuclear weapons and ICMB delivery systems.
So what have they been up to? Continue reading
Big Red Car here with a belly full of tacos from Taco Deli — where one goes to get breakfast tacos on a Saturday morning in the ATX. Hard to make the transition to sarin, but here goes.
So, the Syrian butcher, Bashar al Assad used sarin gas against civilians and killed men, women, and children — babies. He is a ruthless, heartless butcher who makes war against civilians and has now killed 500,000 of his countrymen as well as displacing 6,000,000 persons internally and 5,000,000 refugees.
He is a bastard and he is the manifestation of evil on earth. How does the world tolerate such a butcher?
He is allied with Russia, Iran, and Hezbollah. The Chinese have spoken out in his favor, also.
When he used sarin previously, President Obama threatened him with retaliation — the Red Line Threat. Of course, when it became apparent he used it again, in 2013, President Obama went to the US Congress pretending to seek authority to retaliate.
President Obama did nothing and from that nothingness the sarin attack of last week was born. Look at the picture below and know these babies are dead because of the ineffectiveness, incompetence, and fecklessness of President Obama.
