    2024 US Presidential Election

    In my opinion, those who are qualified for legal immigration and apply correctly should be allowed entry into our country. The United States cannot simply ignore those rules, open the borders, and become the only place in the world where anyone can come and stay as long as they like, often at...

    There is a plan to open a new detention facility in the Everglades, Florida, which will hold illegal criminal aliens. Work is underway, and it is expected to be completed in early July. There are alligators, pythons, and other threats, including quicksand, outside the site, so trying to escape...

    Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told reporters that Australia supports U.S. actions preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. It is time for a regime change. In Trump's words, "MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN!"

    Pakistan has formally recommended Donald Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize for his “decisive diplomatic intervention” and “stellar statesmanship” in helping to end the violence between Pakistan and India in early 2025. According to the statement, the U.S. president played a key role in “averting a...

    2024 US Presidential Election

    The main reason Donald Trump was elected in 2024 is that the Democrats did not choose a competent and well-liked candidate to run against him.

    2024 US Presidential Election

    I was thinking about this earlier as well. It’s highly unlikely that he will be able to deport more than a fraction of the 15 to 20 million undocumented immigrants during his term. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reported that, as of June 11, 2025, over 207,000 migrants have been...

    I'm Fine — Tinnitus Is Basically Not a Thing Anymore

    Don’t give up. In the beginning of having tinnitus, we all experience moments when we do not hear it. Over time, those moments become longer—first stretching into minutes, then into extended periods lasting hours. Eventually, you may not hear the tinnitus at all unless you focus on it. Many...

    No, I have never had a stroke and probably never will. While there are some risk factors, I do not smoke or drink, I am not overweight, I have no heart blockages or blood clots, and I take medications that are very effective in preventing strokes in people like me.

    June 10th was the 85th anniversary of Norway's surrender to Germany, just one month after an invasion that began on April 9, 1940. The reason for mentioning this is that, as far as the matter of Russia and Ukraine is concerned, talk is cheap.

    2024 US Presidential Election

    Yes, the star of The Big Lebowski, Jeff Bridges, a fine actor, lent his name to the Democrats by supporting the White Dudes for Harris group. I wonder if he was paid a million dollars or more, or if he was simply doing a favor for the liberal elites in California. If you equate Nazism and...

    They did not come down by 400 percent because that is impossible. He made a mistake. He probably meant 40 percent. During the egg crisis in New York City, I was paying about 10 dollars per dozen, and now they are about 6 dollars per dozen. Obama once said that he had visited “57 states.” He...

    Gavin Newsom has continued the legacy of Liberal Elite leadership in California, which has destroyed the state.

    The National Guard and Marines are now in Los Angeles to allow ICE agents to do their job and be safe from danger. ICE is a federal law enforcement agency and, according to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, "has the right to safely conduct operations in any state, in any jurisdiction, in the...

    2024 US Presidential Election

    From what I can ascertain, those numbers are speculations by a Boston College professor, not facts. What is true is that the USAID foreign aid recipient agencies were pervaded with fraud and corruption. If Trump were able to do everything he said he would, he'd be the first president in history...

    Musk is the wealthiest person, and Trump the most powerful leader, in the world. It would be impossible for them to agree on everything, all the time. I think Musk is probably correct about Trump's big bill, but otherwise, the president is doing very well.

    The Democrats have allowed hundreds of thousands of violent criminals, including many gang members, to enter the United States. People in Europe, who often have little experience with this level of criminality, may not grasp the seriousness of the issue. They sometimes dismiss these facts as...

    Clonazepam (Klonopin, Rivotril)

    I don’t know if the tinnitus was made worse, but during my withdrawal I was working on CBT and other strategies to reduce my reaction to it. My only Clonazepam prescription was given to me in August 2017. It was for 1 mg, twice a day, with a total of 42 pills (three weeks’ worth). However, I...

    For the first few months, the physical and mental symptoms included insomnia, tension, anxiety, panic attacks, and more.

    Changing the topic when you have nothing substantial to contribute is a typical tactic of someone avoiding the issue. I see no problem with a urologist using shock wave therapy to successfully treat patients in need of help and would like to try it. This technology, known as extracorporeal...

    Joe Biden has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer, which has spread to his bones. I do not understand how his doctors did not catch this earlier. Wouldn't he have taken a PSA test every year, which all men over 50 should get? It makes you wonder.

    Clonazepam (Klonopin, Rivotril)

    Benzodiazepines are generally well-tolerated by most people, but they are not suitable for everyone.

    I highly doubt that the picture of Trump as the pope influenced the conclave cardinals to choose this man. The Catholic Church is far more conservative than Trump. This organization is officially against divorce and all forms of birth control, which Trump would never even consider outlawing...

    If the guy in the blue shirt had affixed a secure lock on his door, the person he ditched would not have been able to get back in. This is why we needed secure borders, which have improved immensely under Trump's second term. The other advantage to self-deportation is that the person will have...

    According to the Department of Homeland Security, it costs $17,121 to arrest, detain, and remove someone who is in the United States illegally. By offering them a plane ticket and $1,000 to leave, it would cost significantly less for individuals to self-deport rather than go through an expensive...

    The economy will do fine, with bumps along the way, until there is a significant improvement. I have no thoughts on the Pentagon. Farmers can rely on migrant workers who are here legally.

    Very few people have genuine hatred toward trans people. They deserve equal rights, but not rights that go beyond those of others. Until recently—over the past 15 years or so—trans and similar gender minorities generally insisted that their private lives were nobody else’s business. That...
