WAR!
The Maples, and Black Cherry leaves are starting to fall here, the Sumac's are turning bright red now, we noticed a lot more color out there today running errands.
Winston is doing well training on his radio fence he hasn't been off leash yet, maybe in a few more weeks... He knows about the "bad white flags" we use to show him where his borders are and actively stays away from them now.
Rose and I went out for breakfast on Saturday, it was nice, we haven't been out to breakfast in quite some time.
We've shut off the outside faucet, added mouse traps in the shed, basement, and barn, along with the workshop, we'll do the attic later.
Put out another deer block, we've been getting these blocks in Hooksett they really like them, lot of corn, oats, and other grains in them.
We won POWERBALL, yeah, $4.00, but still! The last I heard the pot is up to 1.73 billion.
“[Farming] has to exist,” “Because it’s needed. It’s absolutely necessary. But to actually do it on a scale… where you feel connected and integrated into what you’re doing… is not ‘profitable.’ And that’s where we’re at.”
We're off to see the Moody Blues Singer/guitarist https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Hayward in Nashua Sunday evening with Jarrod and Crystal.
Off to Mom & Dads Saturday, Mom needs a grab bar installed in the stairway, and they need to replace their AC unit, we'll need to measure that.
We made a couple trips out this weekend, Home Depot, and Tractor Supply to pick Deer blocks, we got sand for when the snow and Ice come at HD, no snow shovels out that we saw yet, we'll have to wait I guess.
I replaced the batteries in a couple of the outdoor LED lights
Rose and I took out the bush in front of the kitchen, we now have a better view of the driveway. two trailer loads out to the burn pile
We're hearing the "F" word now, Yeap FROST! Tuesday, we'll see...
We stopped up to Mom and Dads, then off to Tractor Supply looking to replace 2-3 broken snow shovels, thought for sure they would have snow shovels... Nope.
Rose is working on sewing several projects
We're out today to put up four more solar charged lights around the house, shed, and barn, many of the plug in powered lights go off kilter whenever a power glitch hits them, sometimes they'll remain on for days before we notice they are on during the daytime running up our already high electric bill.
We turned off the dehumidifier in the camper, we caught two mice in the traps in there, I turned the radio on, we'll see how the battery does, it's running on batteries powered by two solar panels.
We got the blink camera moved lower on the house, and the batteries replaced.
Ladders were put away now that the solar lights are up. These new lights charge up an internal battery during the day. I'll check them tonight to see how they do.
The Maples on the side of the house have lost almost all their leaves, we'll need to rake and vacuum them up next weekend. Into the garden they go.
The end...

The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage rate reached 8% Wednesday morning, according to Mortgage News Daily. That is the highest mark since the year of 2000.
Strategic Petroleum Reserve Near Historic Lows – Biden Drained SPR Down to Just 17 Days of Supply as War Breaks Out in Middle East
No matter what happens in our world, Joe Biden always seems to find a way to respond in a way that is completely and utterly inappropriate.
We are literally teetering on the brink of World War III, and we have got the worst leader in the history of our country sitting in the Oval Office.
Biden has made disastrous decision after disastrous decision during his tenure, and now he has to figure out what to do about a Middle East war that is going to be very brutal and very bloody.
“Prices are high relative to what they were before,” Crofoot said. “So you’re spending more than you can save, and so retirement is going to be further off for you than it was for generations before you.”
The Government
Company I worked for used to see ICE "U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE)" stop in and "raid" the facilities several times a year to ensure we didn't have any ILLEGAL immigrants working at our plants. One can only wonder if we don't need another 80,000 ICE personnel to eradicate Biden's Illegal Immigration nightmare. I haven't heard of any ICE raids in years...
If you missed the memo, the United States Federal government and all of the associated agencies including and especially groups like the FBI and ATF, have declared the American people to be the enemy of the American state.
Never has it been more clear that there is no more virulent anti-American group in America than the American Federal government.
The language They use to talk about regular White Americans sounds an awful lot like how we spoke about al-Qaeda after 9/11 or the Japanese after Pearl Harbor. It is intended to dehumanize us and make it easier down the road to eradicate us. Make no mistake, it doesn’t matter if you own a dorky Make America Great Again Hat or if you ever voted for Trump. If you are White and not with the program, you are MAGA and therefore an extremist and thus viewed as a potential enemy combatant in your own country.

Bidenomics downgrade as the Bureau of Economic Analysis revises down the last 3 years of economic data.
Turns out inflation was higher. Growth and income was weaker. And federal spending is now replacing the consumer.
Gems include $1.1 trillion in vanished savings, a 9-sigma revision down in consumer spending, and higher peak inflation.
Finally, it turns out long after the fact — and long after the election — growth under Trump was higher. And growth under Biden is even lower.
Joe Biden is promising long-term economic prosperity through
- Massive accumulation of debt.
- Raising taxes
- Growing government bureaucracy at an unprecedented rate
- Increasing government regulations
- Tampering with free enterprise
- Opening our borders
- Crushing the middle class to finance the expansion of the ultra-wealthy and freeloader classes.
ISRAEL
“Trump cut off funds to the Palestinians, unleashed unprecedented peace initiatives in the Abraham Accords, killed the Iran deal, was starving the Iranian regime of resources with crushing sanctions, and Biden not only reversed it all, including funding the Palestinians and Iran, but undermined Netanyahu at every turn, refused to meet with him, demanded that Israel make more concessions to the Palestinians. Appeasement and worse has consequences.”
How could Israel not know an attack was coming?
Maybe they did see it coming and chose to let it happen to allow the hard right to sweep the left and moderates out in the next election cycle so they can go full hard with Uncle Joe's renewed commitment to help support Israel in the struggle.
It's not like a government has never let their people be slaughtered to gain more control ... we want safety. Please government protect us from the evils in the world.
Yeah, I'm just guessing but ...

If it really is the economy, stupid, Bidenomics is in big trouble. And so is its namesake.
Americans of all political factions are angry that seven-million-plus illegal aliens have strolled into our country since Joey took office. Who knows how many more will be here before the year is over…in fact before you finish reading this column? They are eager to enjoy Marxist Democrat hospitality: free lodging, free medical, free food, free education, free iPhones, free…free…free. In some states, the welcome also includes driver’s licenses, voting privileges, and work permits.
How much are you as American citizens getting for free?
How much are our valiant veterans getting for free?
Are you getting anything free when utilities send rate increase notices? Does the supermarket give you anything for free when grocery shopping? Can you get a free gallon of gas at the service station?
Polls
The hosts of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” appeared shocked Friday by former President Donald Trump’s polling advantage over President Joe Biden on several key issues, including the economy and inflation.
Republicans also have the largest leads ever registered over Democrats on issues like national security.
“There’s been one poll after another poll after another poll this week that has shown that the Republicans are just absolutely bashing Democrats when it comes to issues,” host Joe Scarborough said to open the segment.
DEPT...
If you are going to go out, you might as well do it with a bang. At the beginning of June, our national debt was sitting at $31,467,639,287,894.39. Today, it has risen to $33,442,148,619,617.43. That means that we have added almost two trillion dollars to the national debt in just three months. It is the largest single debt in the entire history of our planet, and it will never be paid off. Our debt spiral has reached a terminal phase, and all we can do now is prolong the agony.
J6
Metcalf’s line of questioning confirming jurors are being “recycled” became a running joke in the courtroom.
“Do recognize anyone in this room,” Metcalf a woman who was later seated on the jury.
“Yes, I saw some of the people here last week when I was called for jury selection in another case,” she replied.
Conspicuously, one potential juror after another took the stand with the same story.
As Metcalf spoke to the approximate twentieth potential juror who confirmed they were at jury selection the week prior for another J6 trial, Judge Dabney Friedrich visibly restrained from bursting into laughter.
If a prospective juror is not selected to sit on the panel or struck down, they are deemed to have fulfilled service and are not required until summoned again.
Once an individual actually serves, the Jury Act also exempts an individual from federal jury service for the next two or three years, depending on the jurisdiction.
Mortgage
Mortgage demand drops to the lowest level since 1996, as interest rates head toward 8%
Under Trump, mortgage rates dropped to 2.65%. Biden's mortgage rates have surpassed 7%. The Goldman Sachs index and the National Association of Realtors' measures show that housing affordability has reached the worst levels ever. First-time buyers are in the worst position to purchase a home since the early 1980s.
Trump slashed regulatory costs by $11,000 per household. Biden's regulations cost Americans a total of $10,000 per household.
Trump's energy policies drove gas down to $1.87 per gallon. Biden's climate policies resulted in a record $5.02 in June 2022. Gas hit $7.00 per gallon in some areas in late August 2023. Crude oil could soon surpass $100 per barrel.
In early 2021, just after President Trump left office, the average cost of cars was $35,000. Now, under Joe Biden, car prices exceed $46,000. The average car payment is an unaffordable $746 per month. Car repossessions are soaring.
According to Vice President Kamala Harris, well over half of all Americans cannot cover a $400 bill without taking on debt. Consumers owe $1.1 trillion on their credit cards. Fifty-three percent of Americans are living paycheck-to-paycheck, many draining their 401(k) retirement accounts to make ends meet.

More Border issues
Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador has warned that the United States will soon see about 10,000 illegal immigrants per day arrive at its border with Mexico.
Such a large number of illegal immigrants are reaching Mexico’s northern border with the United States partly due to about 6,000 illegal immigrants crossing from Guatemala into Mexico every day for the past week, President Obrador said on Oct. 2, according to The Associated Press. The Mexican president criticized U.S. sanctions on nations such as Cuba and Venezuela, two nationalities that make up a significant portion of the illegal immigrant flow.
On Sept. 29, President Obrador called on the United States to “remove blockades and stop harassing independent and free countries.” There should be “an integrated plan for cooperation so the Venezuelans, Cubans, Nicaraguans, Ecuadorans, Guatemalans, and Hondurans wouldn’t be forced to emigrate,” he said.
"With more than 99 percent of illegal aliens staying inside the United States after being released by the Biden Administration, there is virtually no enforcement of our immigration laws," the report says.
It claims that in the first 10 months of the 2023 fiscal year, the Department of Homeland Security released 929,496 illegal aliens into the United States after they were apprehended at the southwest border.
"Far from slowing down, the Biden border crisis is only accelerating," the committee report said. "Instead of relying on Trump-era policies that controlled the border, the Biden Administration has reduced the nation’s immigration laws to little more than a speed bump in the path of mass releases of millions of illegal aliens."
Trump was right again! The Biden White House announced it’s waiving 26 federal laws to complete aspects of Trump’s border wall in South Texas along the Rio Grande Valley Sector. Unsurprisingly, no Democrats have called Biden’s plan to finish Trump’s wall construction racist. This was hardly the case when Trump first announced border wall construction.

In 2023, it’s the economy again, but not only the economy. Our national debt is over $33 trillion, growing by $5 billion a day, with interest payments costing taxpayers almost $2 billion each day. Much of it is or was going to one of the most corrupt countries in the world, holding no vital US interest, or spent on the nonsensical “Green New Deal,” while most Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.
While not pleasant, America can survive a recession or depression, as we did a hundred years ago. But what if we are invaded and conquered?
That’s a new scenario for America. The past two world wars, and subsequent wars were all fought overseas, not in the US homeland.
Invasions don’t always happen by ships and planes. What if we simply allow the enemy to move into the country, ready for activation at any time? In other words, America’s future enemy combatants may already be here.
In order to protect public health, we must treat as “sick” any individual who doubts that the government’s primary concern is the public’s health!

EDUCATION
The ACT and the SAT have long been considered the gold standard of tests for colleges to look at when considering prospective students. Though these tests do change with the times, they are not getting harder. Sadly, students who took the ACT this year did not achieve. In fact, according to Axios, test scores have fallen to their lowest point in 32 years (since 1991).
The average score for this year’s hopeful graduate was 19.5 out of 36. This indicates that students aren’t even meeting the college readiness benchmarks in most or all of the academic areas tested. Most colleges and universities are looking for at least an average score of 21, private institutions closer to a 26, and elite institutions a 32-36.
