Play chess for peace, not war!
my beautiful wife, wife, Jme, the ubiquitous California hippie, tie dye wearing, feathers and bead, peace loving bell bottom and sandal clothed girl who grew up on free love and Grateful Dead , Jackson Brown rock and roll, has always told me that she doesn’t believe in war to solve problems, and that nations‘s leaders should sit down and play chess to solve their disputes, that the winner gets to win. No wars. Well, in my mind, that is a naïve example of dispute resolution and not realistic. I came from Africa, where I was born and raised, very conservative, whereas Jme was born in the San Francisco Bay Area, California and grew up during the 1960s . She’s mellowed me out a little, but not too much. I still think that world leaders can’t just sit down and play chess to resolve their National issues. But right now we have a president who is a master chess player and is playing a geopolitical game of chess on the world stage, for all of us to see. And like a master chess player, he makes his moves with a strategy 3, 4, 5 or more moves ahead of his current play, and all the world leaders are watching. His bold moves in Venezuela cuts out oil supplies to Cuba, a communist regime in our back yard, and also China, our biggest adversary Who relied on cheap discounted oil from Venzeula also For their energy needs. Making a move on Greenland to ensure we can protect the western hemisphere and North America from hostile nations such as Russia who has proven their lust for conquest And has been our enemy for 70 years. Then his attack on Iran who has been at war with America for 47 years and chants “death to America”. He has stopped their nuclear ambitions And also stopped China from getting cheap discounted oil from them. And in the process has put every hostile nation on notice that we are strong and won’t put up with their hostilities any longer. Like North Korea. Against the United States or any of our allied nations. But also put our friends on notice that they must pull their weight if they want our support. Like with NATO. Pay their dues. Like they are obligated to do. Every move president Trump does has a ripple effect all over the world, and it is making the world a safer place. Peace through strength.Russia, who has been attacking Ukraine mercilessly for 4 years and hasn’t had much success, and China, who has just been itching to invade Taiwan, are watching very closely to what Trump is doing and achieving, and are being put on notice that we won’t be an easy opponent for their hostile ambitions. So really, he is playing chess, on the world stage, and is winning. I guess Jme, the peace loving hippie, has been right all along.

The Story of Mary Van Brittan Brown
Mary Van Brittan Brown (1922 – 1999) – Home Camera Security System In the quiet hours of night, when most of New York City had finally lulled itself to sleep, the row houses of Queens told a different story. Streetlights flickered against cracked sidewalks, shadows moved where no footsteps sounded, and the uneasiness of the era seemed to settle into the very bones of the neighborhood. It was the mid‑1960s, a time when the city pulsed with ambition and creativity—but also with rising crime. For many residents, safety was something you hoped for rather than something you could rely on.
