Memory is a strange thing. Arthur M. Schlesinger writes in A Thousand Days: John F. Kennedy in the White House that JFK once said that his brain was filled with random bits of what he called useless information and he often had memories of how he’d come to know it in the first place. The example he used is that he knew for some reason that the level of salt in our blood is the same as in ocean water. For myself, memory is like a roulette wheel where I’ll forget someone’s name two seconds after being introduced but somehow remember the color of the corduroy pants my mother made me wear 50 years ago… maroon and gold!
It's in this assortment of my memory that something sticks out like a pulsar in the dark of space: The moment the ring drops to the floor in the movie The Sixth Sense, when we suddenly realize Bruce Willis’s character is dead. I was simply dumbfounded. It immediately made sense, but I couldn’t believe that I’d not recognized it the whole time. The movie flashes back over the different scenes from Willis’s newly revealed perspective and it was suddenly as if I’d just watched a different movie than the one I’d actually seen. From Willis’s eyes, everything was clearly there, but I simply hadn’t seen it. The signs were there, but I just didn’t recognize them…
That movie came back to me this week when a piece of news came out that was every bit as crystalizing as that ring crashing to the floor and rolling. The Democrats hate Americans. As millions of Americans picked themselves up and surveyed the extraordinary damage wrought by Hurricane Helene, to their horror they discovered that the Federal Emergency Management Agency, an agency specifically set up to help American citizens and communities recover from natural disasters exactly like Helene, had run out of money. And it wasn’t because the agency wasn’t given any money. No, FEMA didn’t have any money to help Americans who had lost everything, were waiting to be rescued, or were hungry and thirsty because… the Biden / Harris administration spent $1 billion in the last two years providing housing and other services to illegal aliens. Literally, a program specifically created to help Americans recover from disasters didn’t have any money left to help Americans recover from disasters because it had spent all its money on services for people who had come into the country illegally.
Like that bouncing ring in the movie, that ill-spent $1 billion released a cacophony of images of the disdain in which Democrats hold American citizens. The release of at least 425,000 convicted criminal illegal aliens into the heart of America, including 13,000 convicted murders and 15,000 who were convicted of sexual assault! California literally making it illegal to require proof of citizenship when seeking to vote. Native born Americans losing 850,000 jobs over the last year while foreign-born workers added a whopping 1.2 million!
And if there was any suggestion that the disastrous response to Helene was somehow a fluke by an otherwise effective administration, one merely needs to recognize that it comes on the heels of equally disastrous responses to calamities in Maui and East Palestine, OH. The indifference to the plight of distressed Americans stands in stark contrast to the laser focus the Democrats have had for sending hundreds of billions of dollars to the extraordinarily corrupt government of Ukraine, flying illegals into the American heartland or using NGO’s to hide from the American people the billions spent on illegals.
This American horror story of despair should (but likely won’t) shock Democrat voters into recognizing that the party to whom they have given fealty hates America, disregards her Constitution, and sees her citizens – including themselves – as nothing more than cows to milk then eventually butcher.
How much love for their country can a party have that not only allows but encourages and assists in the invasion of its own country by eight million people in four years, a population of larger than 37 out of 50 states?
How much value does a party put on the lives of citizens when it unleashes 13,000 known brutal killers into their midst?
How concerned for the safety and security of women and children can a party be that releases 15,000 rapists to prey upon them?
The answer is simple to all three questions is the same: None.

Embezzlement
Hmmmm..... FEMA funds disappear .... World Bank loses BILLIONS of Green New Scam funds ...
Payout pressure on the Paymasters.
FEMA funds vanish.
BLM funds vanish.
EV Recharging station funds vanish.............
Seems to be a lot of that going around..........
Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan and any Republican that opposed money for the border wall during Trump's first term are equally complicit in opening the borders.
The common thread: Funds collected for one stated purpose, but spent for other purposes or simply stolen.
I'm going to use a term that used to be understood but has fallen out of favor. Everyone knew what it was and that it was wrong...
SLUSH FUND
Seems to me some other things should disappear.
Let’s not forget Hillary Clinton “losing” $36,000,000 while Secretary of State.
You know…..
That is the same amount Newsome has “lost” twice in California.
Hmmmmm…..
Same amount 3 times…..
I wonder if the Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate is paying blackmail money?
One more betrayal by the commies and filth running the Biden White House. Who are the people the Cartels are paying off?
