Little tidbit that only Crime Watch will tell you:

MPD administration is requiring cops to work these "Chief's Beats" high stress/risk summer night shifts with no overtime. They will be required to take off a regular weekday shift in order to replace it with working a summer weekend evening shift so they don't trigger overtime.

Rank and file are less than thrilled. We're told: "Morale is trash" right now and spiraling downward.

BILL CLINTON & 911

(Part Two)

The following is excerpted from my book, “Dereliction of Duty:”

The White House Situation Room was buzzing. It was fall 1998 and the National Security Council (NSC) and the “intelligence community” were tracking the whereabouts of Osama bin Laden, the shadowy mastermind of terrorist attacks on American targets overseas. “They’ve successfully triangulated his location,” yelled a “Sit Room” watch stander. “We’ve got him.”

Beneath the West Wing of the White House, behind a vaulted steel door, the Sit Room staff sprang into action. The watch officer notified National Security Advisor Sandy Berger, “Sir, we’ve located bin Laden. We have a two-hour window to strike.”

Berger ambled down the stairwell and entered the Sit Room. He picked up the phone at one of the busy controller consoles and called the president. Amazingly, President Clinton was not available. Berger tried again and again. Bin Laden was within striking distance but the window of opportunity was closing fast. The plan of attack was set, with American patriots on the ground and in the air. Biden Laden was cornered.

For about an hour Berger couldn’t get the commander in chief on the line. Though the president was always accompanied by the Secret Service, he was somehow unavailable. Berger stalked the Sit Room, anxious and impatient.

Finally, the president accepted Berger’s call. There was discussion, there were pauses—and no decision. The president wanted to talk with his secretaries of defense and state. He wanted to study the issue further. Berger was forced to wait. The clock was ticking. It was only a few hours that America had to pull the trigger or lose its prey, with assets on the ground and in the air. The president eventually called back.

He was still indecisive. He wanted more discussion. Berger alternated between phone calls and watching the clock.
The NSC watch officer was convinced we had the right target. The intelligence sources were conclusive. The president, however, was concerned about offending neighboring nations in the region. He wanted a guaranteed hit or nothing at all.

This time, as was often with Clinton when offered the opportunity to defend America and Americans, it was nothing at all. We didn’t pull the trigger. We “studied” the issue until it was too late—the window of opportunity closed. Al Qaeda’s spiritual and organizational leader slipped through the noose. And the citizens of the US would suffer the ultimate terrorist attack three years later.

As I detailed in the first part of this series on 9/11 and Clinton, I was a recently retired Air Force pilot and flying as a Delta Airline’s copilot on that horrific day. I was scheduled to fly, ironically, that morning from Atlanta to New York’s LaGuardia Airport.

It was then I knew. I knew that the years of indifference and risk avoidance on the part of Bill Clinton had come home to roost. America had been attacked. The intelligence he’d seen and that I’d seen had predicted this. We knew they were going to do it…and he did nothing. And they did it.

The United States of America was founded on a foundation of God-granted principles, but we send our men and women into combat around the globe to defend and fight for those principles. My former boss, Bill Clinton, failed us, and 3,000 were killed domestically and over 15,000 killed in the wars of Iraq and Afghanistan, due to his dereliction of duty.

America can’t afford another leader like Bill Clinton.

Yet here we are with Democrat cowards like Gavin Newsom, Pete Buttigieg, and AOC. Vote accordingly. Otherwise, we’ll be enduring more days like September 11, 2001.

BILL CLINTON & 911

Part one of Two

On the morning of September 11, 2001, I was a recently retired Air Force colonel, pilot, and a wet-behind-the-ears pilot for Delta Air Lines. I was scheduled to fly that morning from Atlanta to New York’s LaGuardia Airport with a departure around 9:30 AM.

As I was kissing my wife and children goodbye for a few days, I noticed the living room television in the background and witnessed the impact into the first World Trade Center tower. Katie Couric and NBC were speculating that it was a small, private aircraft that had somehow wandered off course and collided with the tall tower. I sat down on the couch and told my wife, “There is no way.”

It was a crystal-clear blue day in New York City, absolutely perfect for flying. Pilots refer to this as “visual flight rules.” The aftermath of the first attack was demonstrably more devastating than anything a private small craft could produce.

As we sat there, I watched the second aircraft hit the sister tower. Same immediate damage, and a convincing display of force. “That’s a lot of jet fuel,” I said. “We’ve been attacked.” It was yet to be determined who the attackers were, but we’d quickly learn that it was racial Islamic terrorists seeking to undermine the U.S. and kill Americans. And I immediately knew that my former boss, President Bill Clinton and his administration were largely to blame.

A few years previously, I’d been assigned to the White House and was Clinton’s Air Force Military Aide and carrier of the “nuclear football.” The “dereliction of duty” of the Clintons had come home to roost.

The Delta Operations Center called me and said, “You’re not going anywhere. Stay home and hunker down.” The nation’s airspace had been completely closed with the exception of Air Force and Navy fighters that screamed across the silent skies over Atlanta searching for new attacks are eerily remembered. The republic of the United States had been forced to its knees by a group of terrorists operating from caves in Afghanistan. 

When the airspace over the nation was reopened three days later, I resumed my trip for Delta and flew the original trip, or “rotation,” from Atlanta to NYC. As we were making our final descent into LGA, I looked to my left and saw the attack scene in downtown New York. Just over my shoulder. It was still on fire, and the smoke billowed hundreds of feet into the sky. It was quiet and sobering. I asked the passengers on the left side of the jet to take a look and remember.

Now, 22 years later, it’s important to remember exactly what happened and how we got there.

As the military aide to Bill Clinton, I was privileged to see the same intelligence that our president and senior staff members were privileged to see. When I first arrived at the White House in the spring of 1996, I immediately began seeing message traffic that suggested there were Al Qaeda plans to pull off a significant attack on U.S. assets involving the hijacking of American targets of the Trade Center, Pentagon, Chicago’s Sears Tower, and Los Angeles. As a pilot, that fact obviously raised the hairs on my neck.

And I started paying attention to the commander-in-chief and the decisions that he made.

In the next piece here, we’ll specifically address what Clinton knew, when he knew it, and the toll that Americans, then and now, had had to endure. Especially that of the direct victims of that tragic day. 

Never forget.

IRS: you owe us taxes

Me: how much do I owe?

IRS: you get to figure that out

Me: can I just pay what I want?

IRS: no we know exactly how much you owe but you have to guess the number too

Me: what if I guess wrong?

IRS: jail

Happy tax day!

Minnesota is so retarded

We give hundreds of Billions of dollars to daycares and autism centers and they don’t verify they are an actual business or have kids or clients there

Meanwhile,
I’m getting my kitchen remodeled.

My licensed and insured contractor had to get a permit to unhook and rehook my sink

Then we had to have a city inspector verify the work

The Government literally does more auditing on a citizen installing a sink than they do to verify that learing centers getting Millions actually have kids there

The left’s argument for birthright citizenship is obviously insane but it’s even more insane when you consider that they actually don’t believe in your or my “birthright.” We are on stolen land and don’t belong here, according to them. But the anchor baby whose parents got here from Guatemala 10 seconds ago has a “birthright” and is tied to this nation by blood for all time. That’s actually their position. It’s so psychotic that you can’t even argue against it. Like trying to have a political debate with a dog. These people are not rational.

The comments 🤣

[Mr. Star Spangled MAGA @4thOfJuly365]

I’m sick and tired of it all.

I’m sick and tired of traitors wearing suits and smiles while they sell us out.

Sick and tired of Candace Owens turning every headline into her personal drama tour.

Sick and tired of hearing about Joe Kent, somebody I’d never heard of three days ago.

I’m tired of MTG's Botox sunburnt face and that cheap boxed bleach job she runs through her hair every six weeks.

Tired of Thomas Massie’s Jerry curls looking like he just rolled out of a 70s porn set.

Tired of Tucker Carlson and that weird thousand-yard stare he does like he’s reading your soul.

And this ain’t just a Republican problem.

I’m calling balls and strikes on everybody.

I’m sick and tired of the Krassensteins flooding my feed with their cry-baby rage-bait, racking up hundreds of thousands of impressions while the rest of us grind.

Tired of seeing JoJoFromJerz's face caked in enough makeup to spackle a house.

Tired of seeing that thing on Ilhan Omar’s head.

Tired of Jasmine Crockett’s non-stop loud mouth and AOC’s horse face lecturing me about “systemic” everything while she flies first class.

I’m sick and tired of people who break the actual law never seeing the inside of a jail cell.

Fraudsters, corrupt politicians, pedophiles on the Epstein list.

I’m sick and tired of hearing “no one is above the law” when it’s crystal clear that everyone is above the law except you and me.

I’m tired of good things happening to bad people.

Tired of the worst accounts on X blowing up while honest voices and talent gets buried.

Tired of Hollywood elites and late-night “comedians” telling me how to live while they snort coke in mansions.

Tired of corporate suits pushing DEI quotas that punish hard work and reward skin color.

Tired of teachers in schools sneaking in agendas instead of teaching real history.

I’m sick and tired of people telling me to live my life a certain way so I don’t “offend” folks with mental illness.

Biology isn’t bigotry, and I’m not rewriting reality to make anyone feel special.

But what I’m sick and tired of the MOST…are the people who hate America.

The ones who burn the flag, kneel for the anthem, and scream that this country was founded on “stolen land” and “oppression.”

The ones who flood across our border, take our benefits, wave their own flags, and then trash the greatest nation God ever gave man.

The ones in Congress who call America “racist” while cashing taxpayer checks.

The so-called journalists who apologize for every American achievement like it’s a crime to be exceptional.

These America-haters don’t love freedom, they fear it.

They don’t want opportunity, they want equality of misery.

They push socialism in our schools, woke nonsense in our military, and shame in our hearts because a strong, proud America stands in the way of their globalist wet dream.

Well I’m here to tell you...

I love this country with every fiber of my being.

I love the dirt in my backyard, the fireworks on the Fourth, the smell of barbecue on a summer night, and the fact that my three kids can still dream bigger than anywhere else on Earth.

I love the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the flag that flies over my house, and the men and women in uniform who’ve kept us free.

I love that we’re the only nation on the planet dumb enough and brave enough to say “give me liberty or give me death” and actually mean it.

I’m done being polite about it all.

I’ll keep writing, keep voting, keep raising my kids right, and keep standing for the greatest experiment in human freedom the world has ever known.

Because if loving America makes me the bad guy…then lock me up with the rest of the patriots.

I’m sick and tired of the haters.

But I’ll never be tired of this country.

MAGA forever.

We STILL ARE NOT talking about this enough…

Members of Congress are exempt from ObamaCare.

Members of Congress are exempt from vaccine mandates.

Members of Congress are exempt from insider trading crimes.

Members of Congress are exempt from the Freedom of Information Act.

Members of Congress are exempt from FISA warrantless spying.

Members of Congress are exempt from term limits.

Congress has always been the problem.

America’s Founding Fathers must be rolling in their graves.
