Many years ago remittance money sent from the USA to Mexico became the # 1 method of having an Economy in the Country !
# 1. Remittance money in the Billions forwarded from Immigrants in USA + $ 10,000,000,000 Billions yearly !
# 2. Oil wells production.
# 3. Tourists.
Of course all these legal ways were eclipsed by the Cartels !
It's been a long time since I was employed as a New Jersey State Trooper and was REQUIRED to be armed ON AND OFF DUTY with specific types and calibers of Pistols !
RIGHT Now I have 2 loaded .38 and .357 pistols handy for quick and deadly access, come on down !
Many decades ago, my Mother and with a little help from my Dad, explained what "Sex" entailed !
It still seems to be working...
If they could control the yearly forest fires over much of the Country, think how much firewood they could sell to the States that touch their Southern borders !
What a dumb excuse. Her opponent is a female (a woman), an immigrant and a
POC. Spanberger is a crappy candidate.

Wow! This world and what Democrats and anti-Trumpers have allowed to happen keeps shocking the hell out of me.
I’d like to start seeing some arrests instead of letters.
I feel bad for Monica. She doesn’t deserve mentions like this. I would like to know when Hillary is going to stfu. She’s as insufferable as Barry.
The British burned The White House in the War of 1812 !
George III was King not Trump !
When Truman modernized the interior in 1948, the burn marks on some of the interior were exposed.
Not To Mention, the THREE HUNDRED MILLION outdoors hoop court that Obumma had installed with TAXPAYER FUNDS !

I was told I was being hysterical about 62,000 CDL’s given out by Newsom’s state to illegals. Keep your head on a swivel when driving, folks.

Fat Loser Generals Can Get Bent

Many years ago here I recounted how spreads and sports gambling were operated in the USA. BEFORE computers took over !
Phone rooms would be sited all over Staten Island, to take advantage of lax sentences for gambling in NY versus NJ. How bookies would lay off bets to higher books if their action got above 50 - 50 and how "The Point Man" set the spreads in the East.
Now you see how computers can not only assist the gambler to place a bet on their computer or cell phone !
There is ONE ISSUE !
Bets can be examined NATIONALLY as they happen for bets out of the norm !
If $10,000 is the normal average amount that accumulates on one team bet or "prop" bets, the computer can signal when a particular team or prop bets rises well above the norm and can be analyzed for reasons and who is making the bet !
Criminals exhibit ONE FACET of personality....they are LAZY !
So rather than betting small to stay under examination and keeping the scam going forever, they bet "all in" and get noticed and probably not paid !

Over 40 years ago, the NJ Highway Authority had the idea of alerting trucking companies of the bad driving of their employees !
EVERY MOVING VIOLATION that a Trooper issued to the Operator of any size truck also had a letter forwarded to the Company owning the rig alerting the company of their drivers issues/violation.
My Company had a guy that kept taking the Series 7 SEC examination to become a Registered Representative (Stockbroker ).
He would take the test fail it, sign up for a study course and sign up to take the Test one week later ! Yes, he would fail again !
Nice guy, but retention of the necessary knowledge was poor to none, so he kept failing the test. The SEC finally instituted a rule that prescribed what were the rules on how many times and when you could take the test.
He finally got a passing grade, but I was never sure how he did it ?
There has to be some method of tracking all these fails and taking control of the process !

Well, Jeff and Train won’t be posting today with inflation below expectations and the market at highs. Icky tucked tail and ran too.
All of them said inflation would be through the roof and the market in the dumps.
LOL. The only thing through the roof is my portfolio. Good for Train that he doesn’t listen to his very own advice since he bought the lows!

I'm thrilled you are doing well !
I HATE for the IRS to get their hands on your hard earned success !
My first advice is to have a tax EXPERT examine your holdings !
My second advice is to follow his advice and diversify !
No problems there. I turned over majority management to UBS decades ago. My 3 top holdings are all companies I personally don't like: Google, Microsoft, and Meta. I let the experts do their job without interference.
Wow, up 36, not down 36 percent as predicted by the deranged.
That's great !
Have no debt of any kind is a long term key.
Allocate yearly $ help to relatives above AND below the table. ( My Nephew just bought home in Colo cash for residence issues. His Cousin in going to house sit and saves her $ 24,000 + in outgoing rental costs. Also bought BMW to use when he's out in Col, which she can use and sells her car, no payments or insurance !)
Both are great people !
Be prepared for any dire economic or political SHF/event. Store some 1960's silver coins for barter, Ammo for self defense issues, Gun Safe with .12 gauge pump, .22 plinker (( short/long/long rifle compatible)) , 30/30 or other large cal semi-auto rifle, ((doesn't have to be assault weapon look alike)) , .38 or larger wheel gun, Glock .9 MM.)).
If you live in snake or large wild animals arm with appropriate calibers.
SHF Manuel will tell what you need to buy, store, learn.
Don't freak out, probably never need the info, but if you know basic first aid, CPR etc it nice to be confident that you will rise to most any emergency occasion.

Troops To Get Paid !
President Trump has an ally that will DONATE $ 130,000,000 million to pay troops !
Looks like he has some friends left over from the $ 200,000,000 millions for the East Ballroom !

Perhaps the Canucks could remember that President Trunp has garnered and overseen $ 19 TRILLION in investments into the USA IN LESS than ONE year !
USA manufacturing is being taken care of. That’s part of the tariff reasoning. I’ve made this argument about the carbon neutral/net zero nonsense. This picture explains it with no words needed.
