Another one who's fighting for relevance and won't just shut the fuck up and go sit at a buffet somewhere...
Is this guy delusional - does he really harbor dreams of relevance - or, god forbid, the White House? The country's largest RINO thinks people give a fuck what he thinks. Disgraced and over-gorged former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie criticized President Donald Trump’s approach to Iran during a recent appearance on ABC’s “This Week with Shrimpo Stepontopofus.” He emphasized that if Iran emerges from the ongoing conflict largely unaffected, Trump’s intervention would signify a significant geopolitical failure. Christie stated that the current situation places considerable pressure on Trump, especially as rising energy prices coupled with stalled diplomacy fuel domestic backlash against his foreign policy.
·Christie articulated his 'concerns' that Trump risks returning to the initial state of affairs if Iran’s nuclear capabilities remain unchanged after the conflict, with the Strait of Hormuz reopening merely allowing a return to the status quo. He remarked on X, “The president is playing checkers, not chess. He thought this was going to be Venezuela. Iran is not Venezuela.” No shit - Guv - I had hig school geography, too.
Such outcomes, he argued, would prove politically damaging for Trump. ·Christie insisted that if Trump intended to act decisively, he must “finish the job,” referring to the president’s previously stated goals of regime change and dismantling Iran’s nuclear program.
The former governor issued a stark 'warning', stating, “If we come out of this with a stronger Iran, this is a geopolitical failure of enormous proportions.” Okay dipshit. With no Army, Navy or Air Force and their country blown to shit, can you explain how they could possibly 'come out of this stronger'? I'll wait here for your answer...

Do you like a strong cup of tea? I found this in Belfast a long time ago.
It's the best tea I've ever tasted. Buying it in packs of four boxes
reduces the cost to just 20 cents per cup.

Tell me your an 'influencer'. I dare you. Especially after I've had a few beers...
Some people just don't know when to shut the fuck up - like this self-proclaimed 'stylist'. The only reason she's in the news is because even reporters think she's a jerkoff. A self-described “socialist socialite” - whatever the fuck that is - who boasts about dressing in fur and lux designers is being blasted after she ridiculed Pete Hegseth’s wife for apparently wearing a budget-friendly gown to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
Ella Devi, 18 (the balls of this friggin' teenager), was trolled online after she pointed out the Secretary of War’s spouse, Jennifer Hegseth, opted for a dusty pink dress that bore a striking resemblance to one found on the Chinese bargain site Shein for Saturday night’s gala.
Who the fuck is she to be saying anything about anybody? Barely out of high school, she's bought in to this whole 'influencer' fuckin' nonsense. Well, honey, the only thing you 'influenced' me to do is to call you a jerkoff on my blog. Well played. Now go home and shut the fuck up...

New Jersey - leading the nation once again...
Truth is, I love rankin' on my home State, firsst and foremost because it solidifies my reasons for leaving, and, honestly, they make it so friggin' easy. I do feel for my friends who're stuck there for family or other reasons, and I wish they'd all (well, most of 'em) would move down here. We could spend the rest of our lives talking shit about the way things usta be.
Anyway, More New Jersey residents are leaving than arriving for the eighth straight year, with about 62% of moves in 2025 classified as outbound, according to the United Van Lines National Movers Study. The continued population shift reflects mounting pressure from the nation’s highest property taxes and rising cost of living, with retirees and older households driving much of the exodus.
The data places New Jersey once again at the top of the country for outbound migration, a trend that has held steady for nearly a decade - coincidentally to when I left? Hmmm.
While some residents continue to move into the state, they account for just under 38% of total moves, highlighting a persistent imbalance.

Alabama Jack's isn't the only great dive bar in the Keys...
The Florida Keys are full of history - and that includes where you eat! From conch fritters and fish sandwiches to cold beer with a view, these old-school spots have been serving up Keys classics for decades (some for over a century!).
Alabama Jack’s - Card Sound Road, Key Largo
Opened in the 1950s, this roadside, waterfront joint has been feeding guests for generations. Today, it’s known for conch fritters, cold beer, and its coveted Old Florida vibe.
Caribbean Club - Key Largo
One of my top ten bars for sure - it was built in 1938 as a private club, it later became famous as a filming location in the 1948 film 'Key Largo'. Now it’s a funky semi-biker casual waterfront bar with stunning sunset views, live music, and an ocassional food truck.
Green Turtle Inn - Islamorada
Since 1947, this spot has fed travelers everything from turtle steak and soup (back in the day) to fresh seafood and comfort food today.
Herbie’s Bar & Chowder House - Marathon
Opening in the 1940s, Herbie’s is the oldest continually operated restaurant in Marathon. Originally known as Maggie’s Chowder House, it became Herbie’s in 1963 and remains a beloved Middle Keys spot.
No Name Pub - Big Pine Key
Built in 1931 as a store, it became a pub in 1936. In the late 1930s, a brothel was added upstairs to boost business… but it didn’t last long as the fishermen were said to be better looking than the ladies. Today, it’s known for being a little hard to find, its pizza, and the dollars covering the walls.
Louie’s Backyard - Key West
Housed in a Victorian home built in 1897, Louie’s Backyard has been serving up island fare since 1971, when it opened with seating for 12 and a single waiter. The building has withstood more than a century of storms, and today The Afterdeck is a favorite cocktail spot.
Pepe’s - Key West
Established in 1909, Pepe’s is the oldest eatery in the Florida Keys and the second-oldest in Florida! Known for hearty breakfasts, fresh oysters, and Key lime pie, it was a favorite spot for President Truman.
Make these bars your very own bucket list.
There isn't one that'll disappoint. They're all funky, some are inexpensive - some are a little too 'touristy' for my tastes, but I've been to each and every one of them - have the coozies and the hats to prove it.

Somewhere in Florida. Every day...
Somewhere in Florida there’s always five guys that look exactly like this standing beside a pickup truck… except now it’s parked near the water with crushed shell gravel, palm trees, and air so thick you can practically drink it. Same uniform - just adapted for “it’s 90° but feels like 110°.
Baseball cap pulled low, sunglasses (mandatory now), t-shirt or lightweight hoodie, maybe a fishing shirt, cargo shorts or jeans, and boots that probably shouldn’t be worn in this heat but are anyway. Hands in pockets or holding coffee - yes, still coffee - or something cold in a can that’s instantly sweating more than they are.
Ages range from about 30 to 75, but every single one of them has looked 65 since about 2015. One guy runs entirely on gas station coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Another one’s been up since sunrise “checking the tide.” The rest are powered by fried food, Cuban sandwiches, and “we’ll just stop for a minute” that turned into the whole afternoon.
At least two are sweating through their shirts but refusing to admit it. One’s got a truck running for the A/C. One swears he knows a shortcut that “avoids all the traffic” (it will absolutely go past three school zones and a drawbridge).
And at least three of them have very strong opinions about driving that always involve I-95, I-75, or “trying to get through Orlando.” Within about 90 seconds they all agree on the following:
the weather makes no sense (it rained five minutes ago), it’s definitely going to storm later, hurricane season is coming, traffic is getting worse, gas used to be cheaper, and somebody definitely saw a gator not far from here.
One guy knows the best place for seafood or wings… but he’s not telling anyone because “it’s already getting too crowded.” Nobody really knows why they’re standing there - and honestly they don’t need to. They’ve been having the same conversation for years, and if you drive by tomorrow, they’ll still be there. Hands in pockets. Nodding. Looking out at the water like they’re waiting for something to happen.
Thanks to Florida Life on Facebook for the inspiration.

A very smart move on the part of USAF...
The US Air Force Won’t Retire the A-10 Warthog (for Now).
The Air Force has agreed to keep three squadrons of the A-10 operational at least until 2029, but its survival beyond then is doubtful. The US Air Force has announced that it is extending the service life of the A-10 Thunderbolt II (“Warthog”). According to Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink, three squadrons of the venerable ground attack aircraft are to remain active at least until the end of the decade.
“In consultation with [Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth], we will extend the A-10 “Warthog” platform to 2030,” Secretary of the Air Force Troy Meink wrote on X (formerly Twitter) announcing the extension. “This preserves combat power as the Defense Industrial Base works to increase combat aircraft production.”
For years, the A-10 has fought back from the retirement cliff. Now, once again, its retirement will be delayed due to ongoing operational demand and gaps in its prospective replacement.

The problem with telling lies and other truths...
This whole fuckup in Iran is dramatically different from any of the other fuckups we've fucked up other times. This one's a headless horseman - nobody knows who's in charge, but that's not the problem. The problem is - these guys are fuckin' professional liars, and as such, have no idea who's telling the truth and who isn't.
They said yesterday that they want to discuss re-opening the straight (for obvious reasons) but will not discuss nuclear weapons. They don't believe the reason we're gonna end up bombing them back in to the stone age is so they cannot ever have a nuke. Given recent events, it's probably not the best time to test Trump's resolve. What was that country song about 'We'll put a boot up your ass - it's the American way...'

She is now facing allegations from four women, including three elected officials, who say she restrained them during advances they considered sexual and unwanted. Lopez Chavez denies wrongdoing and says one alleged encounter “never occurred.”

In May 2013, Etta Mae Lopez, a 31 year old woman from Sacramento, waited outside the county jail for hours with a specific plan. When a uniformed deputy finally walked past, she stepped forward and slapped him, later explaining she wanted to be arrested so she could quit smoking in a smoke free jail.
The deputy, Matt Campoy, said the attack came without warning as he was leaving his shift. Lopez struck his face and then hit his arm as he tried to restrain her. Once handcuffed, she told officers she had chosen a deputy on purpose because she believed it was the only way to ensure real jail time.
Lopez pleaded no contest to misdemeanor battery on a peace officer. A judge sentenced her to 63 days in jail, including credit for time already served, along with additional probation related to a prior case. She was also ordered to have no contact with sheriff’s deputies.
According to deputies, Lopez said she believed jail was the only place where she could not access tobacco and stay long enough to break the habit.

There's something worth noting about Amazon and the stuff you see on
here. Their prices on items literally change every day depending on
demand. Yesterday, there's was a pair of sneakers on here that went for
$ 60.00. Today they're $ 70.00. Just be aware that I only allow ads on
here if the price is their lowest available. You're welcome...

How bitter is the Conservative-Progressive split in America? Polls show 50% of Americans don't want Iran to have nuclear weapons that could attack us.
The other 50% feel we deserve the attack.

The U.S. aircraft carrier Bush joined the carriers Lincoln and Ford off Iran's coast, joining 37 U.S. war ships enforcing the blockade at the Straits.
Still, CNN claimed Wednesday 8 Iran oil tankers were able to run the blockade. If true, then Iran's new naval commander is David Copperfield.
