Here at Independent Voter site Balladeer’s Blog it’s time for another installment of “Has to be Said.”
ANTI-DONALD TRUMP LOONS ARE REPEATING ALL THEIR ACTIONS FROM HIS FIRST TERM – Do the people who hate President Trump 24/7 have any kind of long-term memory? Last time around assorted showboating judges tried halting his perfectly constitutional actions but over the following months and years most of what Trump wanted to accomplish was upheld.
Trump-haters obviously lack a sufficient attention span to follow court rulings as they ascend through various levels of appeals. The attention-seeking judges are overreaching and exceeding their powers for purely political reasons, just like last time. And just like the farcical political trials they used against Trump during the years that Biden was installed.
For overseas readers who don’t understand why so many judges have abused their positions, it’s all part of the Democrat motto “By any means necessary.” In the “Everything is political” mindset of such partisan robots it is like a religious commandment – “If your job puts you in a position to screw over The Party’s enemies, then you MUST do so, even if your actions later get overruled.”
Trump has only been back in office roughly two months. It’s a long road ahead and many of the lower court rulings that Trump-haters are celebrating today will eventually be overturned. As usual.
And by the way, the U.S. president who has most often been overruled in the end by the U.S. Supreme Court by unanimous decisions was BARACK OBAMA. But his political party’s media outlets – as house organs will do – refrained from covering that fact with the same breathless hysteria that they use in covering Trump.
Over and over again since 2015 the mindless, uncomprehending anti-Trumpers have insisted that the Donald – America’s Nelson Mandela, Lech Walesa and Gandhi – is through. Remember all of the unfounded attacks on Trump since then? All of which his vile enemies insisted was the end. Every. Single. Time. Continue reading
CHAMPIONSHIP GAME – The 4th seeded NEWPORT NEWS APPRENTICE SCHOOL BUILDERS (Shipbuilders) took the court against the 3 seeds – the VILLA MARIA COLLEGE VIKINGS. The Builders embarrassed Villa Maria College on both sides of the ball, leading them 33 to EIGHT (!) at Halftime. From there, the Apprentice School coasted to their 2nd National Championship in a row with a 64-43 victory. Chris Hinmon’s 16 points led the Builders, and teammate Donovon Means had a Double Double of 10 points & 10 rebounds.
A PROPHETIC ROMANCE; MARS TO EARTH (1896) – Written by Boston’s John Mccoy in the form of reports sent from future Earth to Mars.
Balladeer’s Blog continues celebrating the FORTIETH anniversary year of this neglected cult show which debuted Saturday night February 9th, 1985. As I often mention, before MST3K came The Texas 27 Film Vault. Before Joel and Mike came Randy and Richard. Before Devil Dogs, Pearl and Deep 13 came Cellumites, Laurie Savino and Level 31.
MOVIE: The Food of the Gods (1976).
SERIAL: IF the February or March of 1985 date is correct – and that’s still up in the air – then the serial episode would definitely have been from The Lost City (1935). That serial dealt with a mad scientist and his futuristic city hidden in the African jungle.
THE FOOD OF THE GODS – This was one of the many, MANY “size change” movies of Bert I Gordon, “Mister B.I.G.” himself. (Amazing Colossal Man, Attack of the Puppet People, Earth vs the Spider, Beginning of the End, War of the Colossal Beast, The Cyclops, Village of the Giants, Empire of the Ants, etc.) 



THE PHANTOM CHARIOT OF CUCHULAINN (Siaburchapat Con Culaind) – This tale is dated to around the mid-400s A.D. because of the presence of St. Patrick.
The next day, St. Patrick and King Loegaire are both on hand at the appointed place when Cuchulainn appears, riding in his chariot driven by his usual charioteer Laege. The demigod’s two horses – the Dub Sainglend (black horse of Saingliu) and the Liath Macha (gray horse of Macha) – are pulling the chariot.
HAPPY SAINT PATRICK’S DAY! From People’s Favorite Magazine in 1916 to Argosy in the 1930s, the saga of Irish pirate and mercenary soldier Denis Burke unfolded from the pen of H. Bedford-Jones. The fictional buccaneer deserves to be remembered in the same breath
FIRST QUARTERFINAL – The 4 seeds – the CROWN COLLEGE POLARS – faced the 5th seeded GRACE CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY TIGERS. GCU was on top of the Polars 39-33 by Halftime, but Crown College came out of the locker room ready for a comeback. In the end the Polars triumphed 74-69 led by 24 points from Tyrus Buckner.
SECOND QUARTERFINAL – The 3rd seeded MANHATTAN CHRISTIAN COLLEGE THUNDER took the court against the 6 seeds – the CAMPBELLSVILLE UNIVERSITY AT HARRODSBURG PIONEERS. At the Half the score was knotted up 38-38. From there the Thunder squeezed out a little separation from the Pioneers for a 72-69 victory. Xavier Lucas led MCC with 20 points.
