What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 247 & BENKYO RADIO 247.

We finally got some rain in Central California! It’s great to see, but as always, please be careful out there, for some reason, Californians always forget how to drive in the rain.

I’m looking forward to watching Press Conferences from various parts of the Biden Administration. It’s so nice to see grown adults back into the White House. There is so much work to do, especially since we endured 4 years by (how an old classmate used to say) LES INCOMPETENTS?

I am halfway through the Barack Obama Memoir VOL 1. It’s a great read. He really reminds me of Dr. King Jr. or Malcolm X. How throughout history, there is great injustice, and how people try to blame Black and other Minority people when instead it was White Nationalism which was the problem. Obama didn’t create the “Military-Industrial-Complex,” it was here long before him. Bernie Sanders has been preaching for 40 years about many topics, and everybody know he is right. Let us listen to him. Progressives are happy that Biden is President, but don’t you forget that we’re still biting our lips over how Corporate Democrats royally fucked up the IOWA caucus when it was clear that Bernie had won. We want #MedicareForAll. We want #FreeTuition. We want #FightFor15. We want #DACA. We want more stimulus checks. We want recurring $2,000 checks monthly until this Pandemic is over.

Somebody PLEASE tell the Israeli Govt that they MUST vaccinate Palestinians. Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. Bididi Netanyahu looks pretty fucking stupid today because he is attempting to cause ethnic cleansing against Palestinians. There were only a few brave Democrat Senators/Congressmen/Congresswomen who spoke out. Everybody was quiet. If you do not speak out, you are COMPLICIT. You have rooms of thousands of soldiers looking at stupid goddamn PowerPoint presentations asking “why do they hate us? Why do brown people hate us?” Well, allow me to explain to you, IT’S BECAUSE OF SHIT LIKE THIS. Vaccinate Palestinians, immediately, get MSF & Red Cross on board if you need be. I don’t want any more additional fucking terrorist attacks because Bibidi Netanyahu is being a fucking asshole.

I just binge-watched the first season of Spycraft on Netflix. It was pretty good! A big warning to many of you against “femme-fatales.” Especially with the Russia & China threats out there.

Alright, I got to go to Casa Bonita and help Mysterion, his sister has been abducted (South Park DLC).

Until next time!
