Here’s the audio of this week’s Wheels Up! segment with Bill Meyer over at KMED FM in Medford, OR. We talked about the Orange Man’s embracing of the Green Agenda and its high priest, Elon Musk – as well as the just-redesigned Nissan Murano and its new compliance engine:

Reply to Norman Franklin way down below: Does anyone really think things would be different if team-R had a lead-pipe-cinch majority?
So much reading suggests everyone is being double-teamed, bamboozled & thrown juicy bones to get them to go along on the path to the destruction of Liberty.
Consider these bits taken from LRC today:
‘Trump Opts For More War With Russia’
“The Trump administration has decided to resume the provision of weapons and intelligence to Ukraine. It is thus aiming at escalating the conflict.”
‘When Dissent Becomes a Crime: The War on Political Speech Begins’
“Arresting political activists engaged in lawful, nonviolent protest activities is merely the shot across the bow.
The chilling of political speech and suppression of dissident voices are usually among the first signs that you’re in the midst of a hostile takeover by forces that are not friendly to freedom.
This is how it begins.”
‘Is Trump Aiming To Replace the United Nations With the Organization of 70 Nations?’
“… should President Trump decide to separate from the United Nations, you can be assured that the Jewish Organization of 70 Nations will take its place. And if you thought the U.N. was bad, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!”
I wonder, has, ‘Covid Taught Americans To Stop Trusting A Government That Puts Them Last’?
“Coronavirus lockdowns alerted Americans to an uncomfortable reality: the institutions to which they’d entrusted their liberties were no longer trustworthy.” …
https://thefederalist.com/2025/03/12/covid-taught-americans-to-stop-trusting-a-government-that-puts-them-last/
How is it, that all of sudden, they are trustworthy?
Because there’s a new boss? …Not the same as the old boss?
Bueller? …
Hi helot,
I hope you didn’t get the idea that I trust these asshats. And I’m not naive enough to believe huge majorities would make that much difference overall. It might however be beneficial in waking more peeps to the reality of our uniparty slavers. Less excuses, means less wiggle room for the actors and a little more gets done. Also, if we lived in a country with honest elections, the Donks would quickly go extinct, with the pubes following along shortly thereafter.
Why even have political parties? They should be shunned and done away with. The only reason I can see is to perpetuate the owners lie that we have a choice in who monitors our enslavement.
The key in all this is pulling out of all foreign entanglements. Seems we’re running out of time for that. We can reorganize and downsize on our own terms, or, it will be decided for us in a way that goes badly. I think someone said it around here. being the tallest midget is still better than nothing. America would prosper if we simply cut the cord with NATO, and focused our inner berserker on the Mexican cartels and NGOs. Let King Charles and King Bee Bee solve their own freaking problems. If we continue to educate Americans that our issues are all solvable, if we minded our own business , this might end less bad for us than anyone else..
Hi Norman,
I agree with everything you wrote, unfortunately Amerika minding its own business will never happen. The DOGE boys are getting all the easy headlines but have they even looked at the gold standard for waste, fraud, and abuse known as the Pentagon? The “continuing resolution” pushed by Mike Johnson to keep Govco running has even more money for the MIC, gotta feed the empire even if it starves the serfs.
Hi Mike,
We might mind our own business more if we lose our exorbitant privilege. Someone is about to take a giant L. We might as well step away from the table and let it be NATO. If the Euro and NATO fails it might give us a bit of a reprieve. Gold is the ace in the hole. Whoever has the most will be the winner.
Not only is feeding the empire going to starve the serfs, the host will soon die if something isn’t done. The pentagon is like a giant tape worm feeding on itself at this point.
ZH – US Deficit Hits Record $1.1 Trillion In First 5 Months Of 2025
In only 5 months the deficit is over a trillion, the previous record was a trillion in 90 days. Something has to give, BRICS nations are selling US Treasuries, which will cause the USD to decline relative to other currencies and cause gold to go up. And it will cause interest rates to go up, because if the dollar is going down the US Treasury will be forced to raise the bid price.
The bottom line is the USGov is in deep shit, up shit creek without a paddle for a buyer for it’s shit paper. The 30 mortgage is set off the 10 year treasury, it is possible in the near future that the 10 year rate will push the 30 mortgage above 8% – which will be a shock to the housing industry. Huge financing crisis coming in our near future.

Like Trump 1.0, Trump 2.0 is big on threats, lots of flip flops, endless art of the deal deceptions.
Trump threatens Hamas
Trump threatens Iran
Trump threatens Russia
Trump threatens Zelensky
But who is listening and who cares? Hamas doesn’t care, Iran told Trump “do whatever you want”, Putin says no ceasefire, Zelensky gets UK and EU to bankroll him.
Amerika a nation wrecked by prolifigate spending, huge debts, massive internal corruption, a sold out Congress to AIPAC and Israel, a homosexual president, a fake unelected president in a rubber mask, and now the orange howler monkey president.
Who cares what Amerika says anymore? NO ONE. Amerika is an old toothless tiger with mange walking in delerious circles and groaning at everything just before it dies.
Morning, Jack!
I loved this: “Amerika is an old toothless tiger with mange walking in delerious circles and groaning at everything just before it dies.”
Magnificent!
“You have to corral 535 cats into a cage” Are you talking about Thomas Massie? That’s who helot mentioned. Trump is in cahoots w/MJohnson (they both work for the same people) and both care no more about you and me than they do the Gazans — or Mahmoud Khalil or the Iranians or US gov’t workers, medicare/SS TAX payers, they’re going to rob/destroy while pocketing money for themselves. Factories don’t get built–or jobs created–by announcing tariffs one day and postponing/rescinding them the next day/week/month (while Trump and his employers/congressional cats profit off market volatility and insider trading). The left is all over this: factories went to Canada because of union/US HEALTH care costs (wages are high in canada). An unpredictable president sparks HESITANCY, i.e. NO INVESTMENT. All here complain about high property and income taxes, burdensome regulations, high cost of living and out of control government (people like Trump who abuse their authority). Trump will be out in three years; midterms are in two; what’s the 535 cats/9 judges/next clownprez gonna do? In that time the factory won’t even be approved. These on and off tariffs are for the benefit of no-one but Trump and his cronies (same as the whole MAGA bs). He is destroying the US – just as he did w/Covid and building the one world gov’t from Greenland to Panama (it’s all Amerika).
It’s becoming very clear Trump is a traitor. So was Biden. Watch the video in this link, Biden broadcast from a fake oval office set.
https://www.westernjournal.com/trumps-lawyer-goes-public-bidens-fake-white-house-set-found/
Biden was an actor with a rubber mask. Biden’s niece said her uncle died 4 years ago.
Hi Who –
Your points are all well-taken because they are sound. Trump is exasperating because he says and sometimes does things that might reverse things – and then he does things like attack Massie, which tells me a lot about who Trump really is.
Listen to this shit – caller says EU is going to impose capital controls April 7th, and that Europe is going into a super depression.

The last record closing high in the S&P 500 was 6,134.50 on Feb 20, 2025.
This is early days, Wave 1 down, a 10 percent drop so far. And VIX at only 25.75 says, ‘What, me worry?’ If VIX were twice as high, we’d be due for a bounce.
Don’t we miss ol’ Bob Prechter, who once claimed that in the grandest supercycle of all, covering the few thousand years of recorded history, the next great bear market would crush stocks back to their level of the Middle Ages, imperiling human survival.
We’re goin’ medieval, bitchez.
Funny how much these predictions resemble the proverbial stopped clock. You know at some point, the stars align and it will be high noon. Then they can Pull It. I guess once the market is down 3O% would be a decent point to dip my toes in on stonks. Energy companies that pay decent dividends, a couple choice silver miners, and maybe a flyer or two. What I’d really like is a great big beautiful Real Estate crash retesting the 2OO5-2OO8 lows.
RE: “retesting the 2OO5-2OO8 lows”.
I dunno, perhaps, when it finally goes, think more along the lines of down to 1974 or ’76 when it all got started.
…What % of GDP is due to .gov spending? “Cascading cross-defaults”, what?
The stock market appears to be on the edge of falling into the abyss, that prognostication is based on Elliott Wave pattern that has formed thus far. Years ago I developed a mathematical model to describe the Elliott Wave pattern, by using the superposition nature of any wave (like water or eletromagnetic waves), I came up with a formula based on fractals to describe the pattern.
Sum of waves = 2.618i sin 1/4.236i
I spent much time studying this, and found a way to describe a developing 3 of 3 of 3 wave, and this morning such a down wave pattern seems to possess the stock indices. Thus I think the market is poised right now to “gap down” like Black Thursday.
Disclaimer – it is nearly impossible to know what the market will do next, just ask Jim Cramer. The best way to be accurate is to say the opposite of what you think in that moment, thus there is a good chance I am wrong.
Does this mean I should regret my early morning purchase of Intel stock?
Always use stop loss on trades. ALWAYS. If the market goes against your position have an automatic sell order in place on the trade. You can also buy a put option. INTC is moving up in the last couple of days, if it keeps going up – then keep raising the stop loss price to lock in profits.
Stop losses? Where’s the fun in that? My money is on Lip-Bu Tan.
Stonks are getting beat to shit again today, as Tariff Man threatens fresh depradations.
Who’s your Orange Hoover Daddy?
Trump is the man that cries wolf, Jim. Right now the Markets are all up and arms because their French Sauvignon Blanc is about to see a 200% tariff tacked on, but Trump does this every day and eventually the Market will grow bored with it and business will continue on as usual. Just ride it out and purchase some silver. The Dow Jones isn’t even in bear territory yet.
So, can we all finally agree, There is No Voting Our Way Out of This? Because I seem to recall a lot of back and forth on the issue of elections, and their legitimacy. I had hoped the OM would have learned some things. What a shit show this is going to be.

Hi Norman,
Will it be a shit show? Some parts, yes, but I think others are long overdue. I am not throwing in the towel yet. I have a been a Raiders fan for 39 years and spent another 30 years with Hercules. My loyalty knows no bounds. I am not willing to throw Trump overboard yet.
Loyalty is earned, he had mine then lost it when he refused to pardon Assange and Snowden at the end of his first term. Just saying, I was still willing to give him the benefit of the doubt at the start of this term. I’m no longer going along with the ‘Ole banana in the tailpipe,’ lets win by losing, make it up in volume routine.
This time he had one job, end the wars. Its amazing to see the lengths some will go to make excuses when our guy sucks, but not tolerate it when they do it. Stop equivocating, cut the coke head off, and take the L. It still falls on Biden, for now.
Show Russia some respect and start winding down our entanglement with NATO. Europe is a dead man walking, with no visible freedoms or means of support. Probably time to cut some ties, since they no longer bind.
To each his own, Norman. I don’t have to like everything he has done or everything he has said. I don’t even have to like him, but if this country has any chance of trying to survive for future generations than change has got to come. Right now, I see no other people other than Trump and Musk willing to do shit. I guess we could let it implode. More than a few on here keep saying they would love that to happen, except when it happens to their 401Ks or what they pay at the store…that is different. Apparently, that affects them and we don’t want that (sarc).
I am all for turning over every rock and trying every angle if it will provide this country’s children (including my own) a better life.
Trump & Musk, do shit? I mean, together? Like say how Trump is pushing this latest CR that doesn’t include the shit Musk did?
Why is that?
“Who wants to tell them?
By continuing 2024 appropriations into 2025 with a “Continuing Resolution,” Congress just locked in a large portion of the Biden agenda for the first nine months of Trump’s presidency.”
https://x.com/RepThomasMassie/status/1899841997101318265
Did ya see how Massie layed out the timeframe of the buildup to all this in an Twitter/X video?
Paraphrasing:
“We can’t do it now, wait”
“We can’t do it now, we’re not ready”
“Wait, & we promise we’ll do it later”
“There’s no time! We gotta do this [pass Biden’s budget] shit now!”
That. Is called, ‘Mothering’.
Okay, helot, you are President. What are you going to do and who are you going to get to cooperate with you?
You have to corral 535 cats into a cage and then also deal with nine people sitting on a court where maybe, two (three, at the most) are fond of you.
What is your plan?
Morning, RG!
Well, how about – as a start – Trump not attack Massie? How about he not pretend EVs are “great”? How about he stop sending money to Keeeeeeeeeevv?
I am not demanding Libertarian perfection because I am not a romantic fool. But I do expect him to stop doing what Harris would have done.
I get your point RG, I’m not one of those who dislikes Trump. He has exceeded the bar for presidents in my lifetime, in many respects. I think we just fundamentally disagree on a few points. The country is beyond salvage, fiscally. You as an accountant know that. Even if we balance the budget, get on a trajectory that eliminates most of the waste, fraud, and abuse, The debt is unplayable. Default or extreme debasement is a mathematical certainty. I’m willing to take some pain involved in an epic collapse in order to set things right for our kids and grandkids.
Diversified the best I can be, I’ll take my lumps, if it means a true reset, so….In the end, your kids life will be better without the half measures. the time for can kicking should be behind us.
Doesn’t quite look like the can kicking is over:
“These two propositions are not compatible:
1. “We had to do a CR that extends Biden spending levels to September because we don’t have 60 Republicans in the Senate.”
2. “We will pass conservative spending bills in September.”
Because we still won’t have 60 Senate Republicans.”

The funny thing, the Rs would have had a lead-pipe-cinch majority if they had stepped up and stopped the Donks from stealing the extra senate and house seats.
IDK, counting ballots for weeks afterwards then using the result as just another excuse doesn’t sit right with me.
Amen, Norman –
It’s analogous to an addict getting clean. More drugs – and delays – do not help that happen. It just has to stop. I’ll add, if a majority simply went back to the way most of our grandparents lived and lived within their means, the pain would be much less. It’s tragic that, as a culture, debt-fueled “affluence” has become the norm when it was once considered the way trashy people chose to live.
Hi Eric, totally agree about addict behavior. Clowngress is the biggest bunch of addicts on the planet. Wish more people understood this. I’m optimistic that we will return to the way of our Grandparents. Maybe not through choice, but surely, at some point out of necessity.
