The View from Here

Today’s featured image is of Kayuta Lake. The lake is located near Forestport in Oneida county NY.


We start today’s View in the land of fruits and nuts, where rep. Eric Swalwell has been caught with his hand in the fortune cookie jar. Or more correctly, with his schween in a Chinese spy. The spy, Fang “Christine” Fang targeted several dem lawmakers, from mayor’s and city council members on up to good old Shart himself. Somehow she got an intern placed in Eric’s offices as well. As a reminder, Swalwell is on the House Intel committee.

Meanwhile, the other disasters from California, Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff, both knew Swalwell had a honey-pot problem and did nothing about it. In fact, Schiff put the compromised Swalwell in charge of CIA oversight. Watching Nan try to deflect from the issue is rather humorous, or would be if it wasn’t a huge NatSec issue.


While we’re on the subject of China, it’s looking like Joe is already taking orders from the CCP. Until last week, Joe used the term Indo-pacific to describe that region. Last week, something changed and he started calling it Asia-pacific. Seems his overlords in the CCP caused an article to be written in the CCP controlled Global Times spelling it out for Joe.


A pair of USAF B-52 bombers made a show of force flight over the middle east today. The planes, which took off from Barksdale AFB and flew non-stop to the gulf and back in a marathon 36 hour flight.


Brandon Bernard is scheduled for execution at 5 p.m. central today. He was convicted by a federal jury of two counts of murder back in June 2000 and the jury unanimously recommended a death sentence. Bernard was one of five teens who forced Todd and Stacie Bagley, who were married youth ministers, into the trunk of their car, robbed them, shot them, then lit the car on fire. Christopher Vialva, one of Bernard’s accomplices, was executed Sept. 22.


We had old West trivia this week, so this next item seems fitting. For a mere $1.6m you can buy the entire town of Gabriella in New Mexico. It’s a replica of a western town from the late 1800s and come with 18 buildings on 58 acres. The town, which includes a saloon, hotel, log cabin, dance hall, billiard hall, old-timey barber shop and stagecoach, is currently being used as a set for a Western, and is regularly booked for weddings and other celebrations.
