GENIUSES

Let me explain the difference between being a genius by IQ and a real genius on a particular subject. I am pretty sure that I would qualify as a genius under the IQ over 140 criteria but that doesn’t mean anything when it comes to being an actual genius in a particular area of competence. As I have said before, I have never done anything that wasn’t easy to me even though I have done things that no one had ever done before. My daughter is I think maybe more intelligent than me but she never pursued a singular field. My son who is a mathematical genius and I if I remember correctly proved an unsolved mathematical theorem but is not in mathematics now.. He is the one I previously posted about that just graduated in French. He is literally a mathematic genius,

So my point? Being an IQ genius is not the same as being an actual genius in a given field. As I have ranted about before I did something in computing that hadn’t been done before but I didn’t think about a career in computing. I went into litigation. And was very successful, but it wasn’t game changing.

Musk’s kids are people that have from their earliest days ate and breathed code. They are the kids that hacked government systems and now they are uncovering the corruption in the federal government. My point is that there is a difference between those with a high IQ and those who have a particular area of expertise.

I know several Mensa people who were worthless.

TUCKER

I don’t know if you have seen it but he has posted a video. Look it up because I’m to lazy to put up a link. But anyway he was in the European Alps not skiing but at a conference and he noticed that most of the big spenders were Ukrainian people. Spending up to a million dollars on a few days vacation. Guess where the missing $100 billion dollars went? And he also discovered and said it was a fact that half the weapons that we have sent to Ukraine were sold to other sources, most notably the Mexican Cartels. We are funding our opposition.

BONDI

I am so happy that she and Trump are going after the leftist who have been fighting against ICE and the CBP. Homan has said it would happen and now Bondi has charged Hochul and Loopy Letitia with crimes. Hooray! It’s about time and it will send a serious message to all the other lefties that you are not going to get a pass for your virtue signaling. Actions have consequences and your ass is facing jail time. And it’s apparently working because Newsom and California are now saying that they are cooperating with ICE even though they are a sanctuary state. Indict them all.

WIZ KIDS

I continually crack up at all the losers on the left who are ranting about Musk having young people in DOGE. Let’s remember that Microsoft and Facebook and many other companies were founded by people who didn’t graduate from college and were in their late teens or early twenties. AI is being developed by young wiz kids. Some people are just geniuses in computer programming and everyone else isn’t. So the left is complaining that geniuses are auditing the government instead of people who are incompetent. They are stupid and desperate.

Btw it’s the young hackers who infiltrated Hillary’s server and provided the information to our enemies.

Listen almost all computing advances come from wiz kids not the stodgy older generation.

ENOUGH ALREADY

I have talked about this before but it’s time to limit the power of US District Court judges to issue nationwide TRO’s and injunctions. In the federal legal system there are 94 districts and 12 geographic circuits plus a 13th the Federal Circuit which has nationwide jurisdiction but only over a specific set of issues.

Now I think I previously advocated for district court judges to only be able to issue injunctions that pertain only to their districts. Thinking about it today, I think they should be able to issue injunctions that pertain to their circuit. The reason I changed my mind is because when some action is clearly illegal or unconstitutional, then it would require the filing of 94 suits to stop it. I think 12 is enough. However either the Supreme Court, and Justice Thomas has suggested such before, or the Congress needs to pass a law restricting the district court judges. Under the Constitution the Congress sets the power and jurisdiction of all courts below the Supreme Court.

Look we had Loopy Letitia file a case in Manhattan to stop the confirmed Secretary of the Treasury from having access to Treasury Department documents and records. On its face that is ludicrous and yet the activist judge issued a TRO ex parte, meaning without hearing from the other side, on total unsupported claims of irreversible damage. Now consider that the Treasury Department and the Secretary are located in DC not NY. He has no jurisdiction in DC!

This has to stop.

EDUCATION

Now I have been calling for the elimination of the Department of Education forever. Now that it is a possibility and given the faux outrage over USAID, I suspect that the real outrage by Mad Maxine and her cronies is because DOGE will discover that Education is just a place where our money goes to be redistributed to teachers unions who then donate it back to the idiots like her.

They never thought that they would be exposed because they never thought that an administration would come in and have a different type of audit or review. I heard today that the reason that Elon and his team are able to move at the speed they are moving is because they are using AI. His computer wizards are so far ahead of what the agency has and it’s scaring the crap out of them. My guess is that most IT people in the government are clueless about AI. I certainly am. Not that I was an IT person but in the course of litigating cases I had to enlighten them on how to do somethings.

SECURITY CLEARANCE

I saw that today Trump revoked Magoo’s security clearances and I was shocked because as I have ranted about before, Jack Smith maintained that Trump lost his security clearances at 12:01 pm on January 20, 2017. Now I questioned the basis for his position because it now appears that Magoo and all former presidents are given daily intelligence briefings. As I recall Magoo canceled Trump’s clearance and access after the raid on M A L. So it would appear that the classified documents witch hunt was even more ridiculous than I thought. And clearly Magoo should never be given access to any classified information. He’s brain dead!

Now this administration needs to do a full on search of Magoo’s various locations where he had classified information illegally stored before and indict him and anyone else who had access to it including Hunter and Jill. And Hunter’s pardon is irrelevant because every day you possess the information illegally is a new crime.

THE UNELECTED

This is another pet peeve of mine. Every time the left doesn’t get its way, they start raving about the unelected. The only branch of government that is elected is the Congress. No one on the Supreme Court is elected and in the vast reaches of the swamp, only the president and the vice president are elected. The millions of others are unelected.

It’s just a meaningless talking point that they use when they don’t have anything else to say. Have you noticed that none of these jackasses ever defends the actual individual grants that have been exposed? They can’t and don’t even try because they’d look even dumber than they already do now. They never had a problem when unelected officials and attorneys in the DOJ and FBI targeted parents and Christians. They are all grifters who don’t want their scams exposed. You can count that they are all feeding at the trough off of our tax dollars and they only get upset when someone shuts down the slop.

SHOCK AND AWE

I am just amazed about the speed at which Trump is going forward. I was going to comment on all that’s going on over the last two days but due to a problem with my ability to recharge my laptop on the porch, I decided to do it in the morning and you know how that went.

First to follow on my follow on, I had said that I wanted Trump to fire all plum book employees and escort them out of their offices without any warning or documents and then cut off their security clearances and access to any federal computer systems. He did that in OPM and USAID and maybe with the people he fired in DOJ and FBI. However I’m not sure that DOGE has acted fast enough and it may have been an impossible task, but I’m pretty sure that employees at the Department of Education are busy shredding documents and deleting emails and wiping federal computer systems now that they know that they are next.

Just keep it up. I won’t pretend to keep up with what he’s doing and it now appears that he will get all his appointees confirmed. The Dems are apoplectic and have no response except just to just yell bullshit.

Btw I love his idea of turning Gaza into a US property and a Riviera on the Mediterranean. Listen when I first heard him say it my immediate response was that it’s just what I would expect. He’s a real estate developer and he sees an opportunity just like he did with little rocket man in his first term when he opened his meeting with him with a couple minute video showing what could be. Because I’m lazy you can believe that I got that from someone else because a couple of people have also said it. I guarantee you that that was my immediate thought.

And lastly I truly loved his executive order today on keeping men out of women’s sports and locker rooms. It was fabulous and the background of all the girls and women was spectacular.
