DefSec Austin woke again after being in intensive care for days


Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was in intensive care unit for days and rumor has it he has been recovering from transition surgery or maybe not. He has finally resumed what he believes are his duties.

Austin was transitioned to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Monday following complications from an elective medical procedure that some hypothesize had to do with him transitioning into a her, as if that's a thing.

Everything was kept hush-hush from the press for days in order to keep the country in the dark and for medical and personal privacy issues, according to someone who is familiar with Austin's personal proclivities. This comes at a tense period after tensions grew in the Middle East when a U.S. strike neutralized four members of an Iran-backed Iraqi terrorist group in Baghdad and a pair of suicide bombers in Iran killed at about 103 people.

A Politico Pentagon "reporter" Lara Seligman said the Austin resumed full duties last night.

"I don’t have any updates to provide at this time in terms of when he’ll be discharged, but we will be sure to keep you and others updated," Seligman wrote on X.

But Austin looks marvelous and it isn't known whether he or she will be taking part in any of the scheduled military base drag shows.

Some Senators will now be allowed to dress like slobs



Good news! Upper house U.S. Senators will now be allowed to dress any way they want, even if it's the same way Pennsylvania Democrat Senator John Fetterman dresses. 

Fetterman, as you may know, dresses like he's lounging around his home watching "House of Cards" in his shorts and hoodie. All he needs is a Bud Light in his paws and a slice of pizza to perfect the look.

Now the US Senate will no longer enforce a dress code for members of the upper house but this will not be so for " . . . others entering the chamber must comply with the dress code. Coats/ties for men. Business attire for women," Chad Pergram, the Senior Congressional Correspondent for Fox News tweeted.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck "Nostrils" Schumer (D-NY) covertly sent the directive to the Senate's Sergeant at Arms, Axios reported.


Of course, this change will allow Fetterman and other uncaring slobs to dress like kids who've been kicked out of school for the way they dressed.

Fetterman suffered a severe, life-threatening stroke which turned his speech into Biden-like blather, but his use of a computer program, to help him with intake and output of communication, allowed him to elevate his verbalizations to be on par with those of VP Kamala Harris. He spent six weeks at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center where he was treated for "clinical depression." He also suffered hearing loss and was fitter for hearing aids.

When the style-starved senator returned to do the work of the people, he refused to dress like a professional and came up with a "workaround" to the Senate dress code.

"He votes from the doorway of the Democratic cloakroom or the side entrance, making sure his ‘yay’ or ‘nay’ is recorded before ducking back out."

"The tips are happy fine business," Fetterman said, referring to the few quarters and dollar bills he receives handing out cloaks without knowing who they actually belong to.

"Senators are able to choose what they wear on the Senate floor. I will continue to wear a suit," Schumer told Axios, with the proverbial stick still in place where no man has tread before.

Priests 'cease and desist' at Walter Reed MC ahead of Holy Week: here's a solution



Walter Reed National Military Medical Center has ended it's contract to Franciscan Catholic priests and friars at Holy Name College on March 31, a few days prior to Holy Week. You don't have to be a Catholic to figure out that this is the most important time of the year for Catholics and it seems cold and cruel to do this to patients at the facility who look to spiritual intervention at a time when they may feel they need it most.

Priests have been administering to these US military personnel for the past twenty years and their beneficiaries at Walter Reed.

“It is incomprehensible that essential pastoral care is taken away from the sick and the aged when it was so readily available,” Archbishop Timothy P. Broglio, the head of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, said in a statement on Good Friday.

The facility will contract with a private organization that claims to fulfill the needs of patients. Does this mean that being the Biden administration's woke Defense Department is the spearhead of the move that patients will now be entertained by Drag Queen dance recitals or story hour?

I have an idea about how this godless situation might get solved, but it would require Pope Francis to grow a set. 

All he would have to do is threaten to excommunicate Joe Biden, and mean it. 


Biden claims to be a good Catholic, in spite of his support of killing babies right up to when they pop out into the world. This would put him in a dilemma, and while he might not change course with keeping priests at Walter Reed, at the very least it would illuminate his hypocrisy and just how secular the left has become.

Of course, this would only work if Biden remembers that he claimed to be a practicing Catholic.

Obama: "Cool it with the patriotism"

Protecting one's testicles is patriotic
Barack Hussein Hope and Change Obama is in the country he apparently loves the most where he is talking trash about President Trump and more trash about the greatest country on earth.

Yes, Obama is in Indonesia for the Fourth of July celebration along with his lovely "wife" and kids.

In a series of events, the former failed president predictably attacked love of country and policies of Trump. 

The Guardian reported: 
The former US president said some countries had adopted "an aggressive kind of nationalism" and "increased resentment of minority groups," in a speech in Indonesia on Saturday that could be seen as a commentary on the US as well as Indonesia.
"It's been clear for a while that the world is at a crossroads. As an inflection point," Obama said, telling a Jakarta crowd stories of how much the capital had improved since he lived there as a child. 
But he said that increased prosperity had been accompanied by new global problems, adding that as the world confronts issues ranging from inequality to terrorism, some countries--both developed and less developed--had adopted a more aggressive and isolationist stance. 
"If we don't stand up for tolerance and moderation and respect for others, if we begin to doubt ourselves and all that we have accomplished, then much of the progress that we have made will not continue," the socialist former failed president said.

It turns out that liberals, of late, have been the least tolerant of all other opinions and have labeled everything they don't want to hear as either 'hate speech,' 'racism,' or 'fascist.' But that's just an aside--everything Obama says is pure bs.

"What we will see is more and more people arguing against democracy [such as the Antifa movement], we will see more and more people who are looking to restrict freedom of the press, and we'll see more intolerance, more tribal divisions, more ethnic divisions [inspired by Obama's administration], and religion divisions [such as anti-Christian and anti-Israel, aka anti-Semitic divisions inspired by Obama's presidency], and more violence [which is coming almost exclusively from the left]," Obama predicts. 

He also predicted Hillary Clinton winning the presidency.

In spite of the fact that former presidents have class and rarely criticize their successors even at home, never abroad, Obama is fortunate not to possess any class and did so in the home of his early madrassa education.

He criticized Trump over the Paris climate accord--a gutsy, good decision.

Trump said in June that he'd withdraw from the accord and try to negotiate a better deal. Europe criticized him because they want our money for the make-believe agreement that we were already taking steps to comply with, while the biggest polluters were doing nothing to reduce their carbon footprints.

It was a terrible deal, but then again, Obama was a terrible president.

"In Paris, we came together around the most ambitious agreement in history to fight climate change," the verbally savant former president said Saturday in a speech at the opening of the Fourth Congress of the Indonesian Diaspora in Jakarta.

The Paris accord was nothing more than a weak 'gentleman's agreement' that had nothing to enforce it and parameters that made it nothing more than ridiculous to take seriously, much like intelligent people feel about Obama.
Meow, Mr. President

While Obama's attacks on Trump and a free economy were being made, President Trump spoke at an event that included wounded warriors at Walter Reed Medical Center. 

"America is a land rich with heroes," Trump said as he personally saluted World War II veteran Harry Miller for his lifelong service and Luis Avila, a wounded warrior.

"We all bleed the same red blood," he told the crowd. "Since the signing of the Declaration of Independence 241 years ago, America always affirmed that liberty comes from our Creator. Our rights are given to us by God, and no unearthly force can ever take those rights away. That is why my administration is transferring power out of Washington and returning that power back where it belongs--to the people," Trump said, which had to anger a failed former president who believes in a nanny state and ever bigger government.

And this is, in large part, why Donald J. Trump is president and Hillary Clinton is lost in the woods.

Walter Reed Anti-Religion Medical Center

 In September of this year, a memo went out at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. The memo was sent by their Chief of Staff, Colonel C.W. Callahan, and it pertained to visitors of the wounded heroes, many of whom fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, and it stated: "No religious items (i.e., Bibles, reading material, and/or artifacts) are allowed to be given away or used during a visit."  

In other words, friends and families were not permitted their First Amendment rights, the same rights these warriors fought to preserve for our country. Representative Steve King (R-IA), who serves on the House subcommittee on the Constitution, was quite upset with this policy.  In his response to this he stated: "The idea that these soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines that have fought to defend our Constitution--and that includes the First Amendment rights to religious liberty--would be denied that religious liberty when they are lying in a hospital bed recovering from wounds incurred while defending that liberty is the most bitter and offensive type of an irony that I can think of." 

The text below is a rescinding statement subsequently put out by the hospital, but Callahan still has a job, and all this took place while prisoners at Gitmo were provided with Korans, handed to them by guards who were required to wear gloves so as not to soil the 'holy book' with their dirty hands of infidels. One can only wonder what the Medical Center would have done if Muslim visitors wanted to bring their Korans.

Here is their statement found on the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Homepage:
      
We are in the process of rewriting our policy and would like to offer the following statement:

Bibles and other religious materials have always been and will remain available for patient use at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. The visitation policy as written was incorrect and should have been more thoroughly reviewed before its release. It has been rescinded. We apologize for any confusion the policy may have caused.

Please know that at admission, all patients are asked for their religious preference and a chaplain associated with their preference visits them regularly to provide spiritual services. In addition, their families may also bring religious material and we will not refuse any religious group entrance.

WRNMMC provides multiple venues at WRMNMC for religious expression and worship. There is daily Catholic Mass as well as Protestant, Hindu, and Muslim services. Eucharist is also available at the bedside. There are weekly Torah studies, multiple weekly Christian bible studies, as well as weekly Qur'an study. Furthermore, chaplains coordinate spiritual needs for those whose faith groups are not represented by staff chaplains (such as Latter-Day Saints, Buddhist, and Christian Scientist).

Walter Reed National Military Medical Center remains committed to supporting the religious preferences of all our patients and we will continue to ensure their spiritual needs are met. 
Their version of religious artifact
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Their public affairs officer Sandy Dean told the press, when the story first broke at the beginning of this month, that  a new policy "will be written to articulate our initial intention, which was to respect religious and cultural practices of our patients." This is nonsense and obvious when she further stated that the policy was "in no way meant to prohibit family members from providing religious items to their loved ones at all."   


Read the memo from Callahan again. Tell me, how is anything in that memo ambiguous? Lies, lies, and more lies. Just another example of the Obama administration's war on religion, his "metrosexual military" that sees diversity as more important than military preparedness, and his secular leftist views that exclude Christianity, but include Islam, the "religion of peace."


If you are interested in terrorism and suspense, I have provided 2 links (below) for a hard copy (soft cover) edition and an eBook edition of my latest novel, Jihad Joe.  It's a story about Zed Nill, a New York based reporter, taken hostage by Islamic terrorists.  He must escape, or be beheaded the following day . . . the clock is ticking.
