What a fun week in Greenwood Village, Colorado with the grandkids…Robert (5) and Aubrey (4). We did everything and more. MJ is worn out. He left nothing in the tank.
Hockey, hiking, golfing, homerun derby, a death street hockey game while the parents were away, hot-tubbing, ice hockey scrimmages at the University of Denver ice facility, gymnastics at the Univesity of Denver’s Gymnastic Center, the beautiful Denver Zoo, sightseeing in the foothills of the Rockies, and watching the iconic golf movie the Legend of Booger Vance.
Then a tour of the Colorado campus where the kids will begin the next part of their educational journey next August.
It was beautiful.
I DID NOT watch one single moment of national or local news. I DID NOT watch one single moment of either a college or NBA basketball game. While the kids were asleep I finished Alexei Navalny’s memoir entitled Patriot.
I did not witness Trump and Vance’s shameful performance with President Zelensky at the White House until this Monday evening. I’ll just say this to you Trump voters…if you maintain that Kamala Harris should never have been the Dems nominee…MJ would sugget to you JD Vance should never have gone beyond being a state senator from Ohio.
Stick to the fake Hillbilly novels, JD. Know your wheelhouse. You’ve got that non-college educated white trash demographic wrapped up for certain in 2028. Yup.
I wonder if me being the only honest writing voice in the intellectually desolate Oklahoma landscape will eventually get me killed like my buddy Navalny. I wonder if at some point Markwayne Mullin, Ryan Walters, Mike Gundy and their boss the orange tinted Reality Televison Star will haul me off to an execution camp in Southeastern Oklahoma.
If they do…they do.
But unlike the passive-submissive Lindsey Graham, the pathetic JD Vance, and the floppy-eared Little Marco Rubio…..MJ will blog the truth on what is quite frankly the best underground blog left standing five weeks into Trump’s second term. If only the Dems had one-fifth of the editorial courage this blog has then maybe Trump’s second term would never have happened in the first place.
And Little Marco…you don’t need to worry about Trump’s dick…either get an ear job or cover those things up with a cap.
What I’m saying is the Democratic Party ‘almost’ makes me want to puke as much much as the gutless fifty-three Rebublican U.S. Senators.
But enough of this. I need to focus in on basketball as we are now in full March basketball mode.
Freedom is a beautiful thing.
But it requires attention, courage, and some integrity. All of which are achingly lacking in America circa 2025. You people are getting ready to get a full dose of what the Greek gods called perpetia…or just basic karma. It will be a bitch. Ask Eva Braun.
Trust me.

HI,
I will come back to GW Bush’s excellent programs to prevent and treat HIV and Malaria. Despite “so-called” waivers these programs and staff have been gutted in the last 30 days and really do not exist at this time. I do think it is important to understand why GW created them and their strategic importance to the US.
However, given the increasing number of measles cases I want to say that if your children or grandchildren are not vaccinated you need to do it ASAP. A child has died in Texas; the first measles death in the US in over 15 years. This is a direct result of low immunization rates in some communities.
To maintain community (aka herd) immunity communities need to have ~95% vaccination coverage. This is because children only receive their first vaccine dose at 12 months and are not fully protected until about 3-4 yrs old when they receive their second dose. Also children with compromised immune systems are at high risk e.g. cancer.
The measles, mumps, rubella vaccine (MMR) is very effective and safe. Over 231 million doses have been given in the last 30 years (since 1995). We eliminated measles in the US in 2000 with vaccination so we are moving backwards.
Measles is super contagious, if a person with measles walks through your grocery store the virus is still able to infect you or your child 2 hours later. The virus is transmitted up to 4 days before symptoms and 4 days after.
Love,
Jan
