Kansas. Dust in the Wind. (Echoes Ecclesiastes)
The title of the song is a Bible reference, paraphrasing Ecclesiastes 1:14:
I reflected on everything that is accomplished by man on earth, and I concluded: Everything he has accomplished is futile — like chasing the wind!

BlackRock fund chief concedes
he's squelching full U.S. drilling
But Larry Fink says his execs hold weekly discussions
with energy firms in order to keep the oil lids 'fair'
Investment giant's CEO avidly backs green agenda,
sees war as boost in forced conversion to renewables
BlackRock's investment fund wields much unseen power
through its vast network of interlocking directorships
Many regard Fink as 'Boss of All Bosses'
with more power than any U.S. president
Though Fink sees a very dangerous period for workers
his views dovetail with the aggession of ex-KGB man Putin

A scenario to make Trump prez before 2024
But Trump supermajority
in Senate is necessary
in Senate is necessary
Scenario:
The Donald has been busy supporting GOP candidates who are not RINOs (Republicans in name only) but who support him.
If the Biden group continues to tarnish the reputation of the Democratic Party, a massive shift to the Trump wing of the GOP is likely in November 2022.
If that shift gave Senate Republicans a two-thirds majority, the Trump wing could potentially impeach Biden and Harris, followed by Senate votes to remove them.
In the meantime, the House GOP would have named Trump House speaker since the House can theoretically choose a speaker who is not a House member. Such an action would be contested in the Supreme Court, of course.
Once Biden and Harris have vacated the premises, the House speaker -- Trump -- becomes president. It is argued that the two years remaining until the next presidential election would not bar him from a second full term, though that assumption that the presidential term limits amendment does not apply would also likely go straight to the Supreme Court.
Though, in these parlous times, such a scenario is plausible, the question is whether Trump would be willing to gamble on not being permitted a full second term -- especially if the top court decided not to hear the matter until the 2024 presidential campaign season.

A regrettable error crept into the first version of this post. A House vote of impeachment requires only a simple majority, though a Senate vote to remove a president requires a two-thirds majority.

Better to Live than to die
Turn to Jesus as your Savior
and make him Lord of your life now.
Make a real, personal decision today.
Hurry! Don't wait for death to strike you down.
Let's take a current example. If you are Russian or Ukrainian, are you prepared to become an active combatant in the current war? Would you let the Lord decide your future, no matter what your family and friends think? And what of the possibility, that the Lord shows you a way to go that doesn't include taking up arms? Are you prepared to Follow him, come what may -- even prison or firing squad?
Are you ready to follow his lead, no matter how weak and contemptible you may appear? What you're after is LIFE, everlasting life. Go that way.
The Lord bless the people in Ukraine. The Lord bless the people in Russia.
and make him Lord of your life now.
