Biden Closes Southern Border by Executive Order!

 Al Ritter


Although President Biden has claimed in the past that he has no power to close the southern border by Executive Order, today someone changed his point of view on the subject.

Undisclosed high ranking sources within the Whitehouse have revealed that President #44 whispered into Biden’s wrinkled ear that his perception was incorrect and that he could in fact close the border by executive order.

On March 31, 2024 Biden signed EO 14122 virtually shutting down our southern border with Mexico.

Upon hearing the news President Trump reportedly spit out his coffee at his morning breakfast at Mar-a-Lago

I know you halfway bought into this……lol…..April fools!

The Collapse of the Key Bridge was an Accident, here’s why

 Al Ritter


Last Tuesday in the early morning hours the DALI, a South Korean built container ship registered in Singapore, registering some 980 feet in length, 158 feet in width and displacing 148,000 tons rammed into one of the supporting structures of the Francis Scott Key Bridge which virtually sealed the entrance to the second busiest port in America.

While tragic in nature because of the loss of human life, things could have been worse. Had the Transportation Police not closed off the bridge due to a mayday call from the pilots on the ship the loss of life would have been far worse. This is the first indication that this was not an intentional act. If it had been intentional no warning would have been given. Secondly there are far more deadly targets available to terrorists in the Baltimore area. I won’t go into them here because I wouldn’t want to put ideas in their head. I will say however that other bridges would be better targets for a terrorist act.

The Dali hasn’t been on the water long. The keel was laid in October 2014 and finished before that year’s end. Some conspiracy theorists are blaming the accident on outdated navigation equipment which isn’t true because no matter how old the ship there are requirements as to the equipment they all need to have so that point is moot. Some are saying that the fuel was contaminated which to me seems comical at the very least. These types of container ships use HFO (heavy fuel oil.) The viscosity of this oil is so thick, it is said that a man can actually walk on it! It is just two steps in refinement from the oil used in asphalt production. To burn this fuel extreme heaters are needed to melt it down to the viscosity to burn. So as you can see, to claim the fuel could be somehow contaminated is ridiculous.

The DALI is no stranger to accidents in the past either, and not from the same Captains either. She collided with a berth in Antwerp, Belgium in 2016 causing serious damage to her stern and transom.

Some people think that because the “fly by wire” systems in these ships that computer hacking is possible because those systems aren’t encrypted. I am no ship’s engineer but I highly doubt the transmission of commands is done through Wi-Fi but rather hardwiring within the ship thus making the command impervious to outside hacking.

Too many people seem to think that today’s technology is technical perfection. Nothing could be farther from the truth. IMO the more technology you use the more possibilities for failure.

They call these tragedies accidents for a reason. Not everything is cut in stone there can always be equipment failures and not everything is a terrorist attack.

Why a Narcissist assumes you’re Stupid

Al Ritter


Because the narcissist’s grandiose sense of self- importance the narc will always think you are the less educated of the two. Of course when you compare any two people there will usually one that is more intelligent than the other. One point you need to consider with a narcissist is that is that ever since their younger years they have always thought of themselves as superior.

As a result of this they never have the inclination to expand their horizons and to continue their education of life so to speak. Development of the normal person is different however. The well- adjusted person always seeks to better themselves and learn throughout their life span. The narcissist sees no need to improve because they see themselves as way above average even if they aren’t.

As I addressed in an earlier article, the narcissist only gets worse through time. As you can imagine if that narcissist actually attended a school of higher education they would have learned a little bit in the first few years but near the end they probably thought that they were smarter than the teacher and held the idea that they could probably teach the teacher.

One thing that most narcissists lack is a sense of logical thinking which can put them at a severe disadvantage when dealing with a well-adjusted person or as we say, someone with street smarts. Creative thinking is not one of their strong suits. They see the world as theirs and you are just visiting, anything outside the realm of what they see as righteous and normal has no place in their life.

As a result of this thinking pattern everyone else is stupid in comparison in their eyes.

Professionals such as doctors, lawyers, politicians can easily fall into the darkness of narcissism, I’m sure you already know a few.

Obama Violates the Logan Act in England Today

 Al Ritter


The Logan Act basically says that nobody may usurp the power of the Presidency and have unauthorized negotiations that undermines the positions of government.

That didn’t stop Barack Obama from showing up unannounced a 10 Downing Street on Monday demanding to see the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. A meeting was granted and lasted about an hour.

Although nobody is really talking about the context of the meeting one has to question what the meeting was all about. Is Barack Obama actually doing negotiations with the UK on Biden’s behalf and if so does he have the credentials to do so?

It also begs the question….Who IS the real President in America? Is this merely Obama’s third term and Biden is merely his puppet?

I think the American people need answers on not only this but many other issues facing our nation.

Didn’t Barack Obama do enough damage to our country in 8 years or did he need another 4 to finally accomplish his total destruction of the United States of America?

Biden and the UN Offer Interest Free Loans for Illegals to Fly Here

Al Ritter


We already knew that non-governmental organizations were funding the southern invasion, but now other players are emerging. It seems that through a UN program called IOM Migration Program and our own State Department are funneling taxpayer dollars to offer illegals interest free loans to fly here.

The strange part is that they aren’t loans at all because there is no punishment for non-repayment. While people in this country struggle to make ends meet in this period of harsh inflation the government is flying illegals all over the country for free.

The recent arrest of 228 people in Florida by Sheriff Grady Judd for human and sex trafficking has uncovered even stranger scenarios of how our government flies prostitutes to major cities for free to meet their “Johns.”

So the UN and our own State Department are actually in the human trafficking trade, and yet our Congress won’t do a thing to cut off their money supply.

Continuing resolution after continuing resolution are passed without consequences and we the people are footing the bill!

The Spying Narcissist

 Al Ritter


Anyone who has come in contact with a Narcissist knows the terms, gaslighting, devaluing, grandiosity, and projection. Projection is what I want to address today. Normally the narcissist will project their own short comings on you. As one person said once, “An accusation from a narcissist is actually a confession.”

How many of you have heard accusations such as….”Why are you always spying on me?” “You are the one with the mental health problems, not me.” “People have told me about you!” All confessions of their sagging self-esteem.

The projection of “Why are you always spying on me?” is a direct admission of what they are doing to you! They have been doing it all along without your knowledge at first. They search you on the internet they gather as much information about you as possible. They go on social media, they find out who your friends are there. They setup false accounts and send you friend requests. They find out your hobbies and interests so they can “shape shift.” In much the same way a chameleon can adapt to its surroundings a narcissist can remold themselves to your interests and likes in the love bombing stage.

In short they spy on you constantly and they will do so until the discard stage (whether it’s you doing the discarding or them.) Just be aware they are the one’s doing the surveillance, not you!

In my case the narc dragged me back into court claiming I was in contempt of court for violating a peace order for doing surveillance on him. But after presenting many photographs that he took of me INSIDE my home the Judge finally started to realize that the narc was the one doing the spying on me, admonished him, and dismissed the case.

In my state along with 12 others have what they are known as Two Party Consent States which means they need the consent of both parties to record, video, or photograph another person when there is an expectation of privacy, ( especially inside the curtilage of their own home.) You might want to look into those laws in your home state.

You should also look into the definition of stalking laws in your state also as they vary from state to state. And above all…document, document, document, it’s your best defense against the narcissist, because they always trip up eventually with their lies.

Oh and Happy St. Patricks Day!

Rumination as it Pertains to Boomers and Property

Al Ritter


A close friend of mine and I were talking about home ownership problems today. And we are both facing older home deterioration issues. We both addressed the problems of our ancestral homes earlier in our years. We both saw upgrades of “40 year warranties” as our purchasing points. Now 20 and 30 years into the future we are seeing accelerated failures at an alarming rate.

Not only that but we are starting to see that our once “upgraded” modifications are not either upgraded but now substandard and in some cases not even up to code anymore.

My once 40 year roof not even 25 years in is regarded as in a severe rate of failure according to my home owners insurance.

It seems that all of our neighbors regard our houses as “knockdowns.” It doesn’t matter that we have maintained our houses to a high standard. We are struggling to keep our heads above water to no avail.

The young millennials seems to want to purchase a house with no property in this day in age. They either want a postage stamp built on top of a shopping mall or they only want a condo where they have no have any real investment into the land.

The old “Boomers” such as my buddy and myself don’t really understand the new realm of buyers.

We understand the respect of land transference from our parents to us and we hold that dear to our hearts and we see that as something that we need to hold onto.

As my buddy asked today because of our ruminations ….. “What happened between today and when we were kids?”

I replied because we were stupid back then, we had no idea the ramifications of what our actions would have become back then.

And it’s totally true, back then we were new to the stage so to speak, we had no clue as to what our actions would be construed as either for good or for bad. We just picked a course and did it.

We just went blindly onto life as adolescents.

As we age we start to understand the ramifications of poor decisions. As a result we constantly second guess ourselves.

We wonder if our decisions are correct. We can’t sleep wondering if the past decisions are correct or if we should have made an alternate decision.

I don’t know if we have made the best decisions toward keeping our homesteads in a historic site status or if the new generation just wants to tear it all down.

But the questions begs… do you just want it to subdivide the land or do you want it for an historic homestead?

I’m willing to sell it for either but don’t try to steal the acres either.

Come to me with a fair market value on just the property or walk on by.

Land developers want to offer us half the land values alone, but not even mentioning the landfall profits they would make in subdivision of the property.

My point in all this is…as we age we constantly wonder if either we have made the right decision on anything or if our future decision is correct.

Worry and anxiety seems to come with age, but as my dear Mother used to say “And this too will pass.”

Drug Use and the SOTU Address vs Past Presidents

Al Ritter


Even Stevie Wonder could see the difference in declining Joe’s demeanor at the State of the Union Address. Biden was not only combatant but downright divisive in his attack for every citizen that didn’t see his way. His demeanor was very different from the past speeches. Although he was semi-focused on MAGA supporters, a.k.a. Trump supporters.

Certain outlets saw his dilated pupils as an indication that somehow Uncle Joe was being propped up by drugs.

Say it ain’t so America. There is lots of proof that world leaders have been propped up in the past by drugs and stimulants. The most prominent example of course is Adolph Hitler.

But American presidents have also had the same accusations including FDR, JFK and that doesn’t include the immediate families. We have already seen the drug use by Bill Clinton (but I never inhaled) including Barack Obama.

So if you think that a possible drug infusion wasn’t possible before Biden’s State of the Union address  you are delusional. It is not only possible but probable.

Fauci Might get Prosecuted After All!

 Al Ritter


In testimony on Capitol Hill Yesterday Dr. Robert Redfield former director of the CDC formally dispelled almost every claim that Anthony Fauci had previously made in his multiple committee testimonies.

Redfield exposed Fauci’s funding scheme and his subsequent briberies to various doctors to change their assessment of the Corona virus’s origin.

Folks this is a bombshell testimony by Fauci’s top boss. There was a reason Redfield wasn’t on Fauci’s Covid-19 team. He knew the real story, but only recently was given a chance to testify before congress on Fauci’s perjured testimonies of the past.

Redfield served as the head of the CDC from 2018 to 2021.

From his testimony yesterday it would appear that he was never a fan of Anthony Fauci or his back door tactics to fund gain of function research in conjunction with the Chinese Army’s lab in Wuhan China.

Maybe we will finally get the prosecution of Anthony Fauci the world so desperately wants

Terrorist Attack is Imminent

 Al Ritter


At a National Sherriff’s Conference held just 4 weeks ago in Washington D.C., the FBI told those present that a terrorist attack will be coming. Terrorists have been flooding our country since 2020 and more are on the way.

The Chinese seem to be the biggest threat for cyber attack, but many more have crossed our southern and northern borders from 160 different countries that wish us harm.

The FBI said, “It’s not if they will attack, it’s when.”

It’s a sad day when even the politicized FBI has to admit that there are people here wishing us harm, when it’s the Whitehouse that has allowed it.

Joe Biden, Wray, and Mayorkas are the ones violating their oath of office by not protecting its citizens.

The Narcissist and Flying Monkeys

Al Ritter


I always referred to this as building allies but there is an actual term for this that Psychiatrists use called flying monkeys. Yes it is a reference to the Wizard of Oz.

I can only talk about certain circumstances that relate directly to me, so I’ll try to impart that to you. The Narcissist tries to recruit people to their side against you. It always involves falsehoods and outright lies against their victim.

In my marriage it involved a bunch of women that my spouse used to invite over to my house, always when I wasn’t home. One night when I arrived home after one of their meetings, they attacked me in force about their “man hatred.” I have to admit I was blindsided but as a result never allowed them back in the house again. It seemed that she had told them some lie about me. Monkeys abound they were flying all about!

Fast forward to the new Malignant Narcissist. One day I observed the Narcissist was walking up our mutual property line with his two adolescent children in tow. Once at the top of the property he continued to walk down the heavily congested street out front which is pretty narrow with a child in each hand. I kept thinking to myself he’s going to get killed on that street with those kids.

He was on a mission to the neighbor on the other side of me dragging his two sacrificial lambs with him. I could see this all play out from my recliner in the man cave.

Once he had arrived he struck up a conversation with the other neighbor in his back yard with his two children in hand (I had never seen him holding their hands like that before.) I can only assume that he was using his two kids as pawns in the game of his diabolical narcissism. They stood in the other neighbor’s backyard staring and pointing to my property all the while holding the children’s hands.

Once he returned to his property he released the kid’s hands and they were on their own.

He has texted me multiple times in the past “all the neighbors warned me about you.” Which was wishful thinking on his part as only he met very few since he moved in 3 years ago. The rest of the neighbors amount to over 10 now and don’t really like him or his attitude towards his neighbors. The rest of the neighbors have lived harmoniously together in this area for decades and don’t spread lies about each other.

Flying Monkeys……the recruitment of people against you, be prepared for it…. the question is not if but when!

Tips for Dealing with Narcissists

Al Ritter


Narcissism is more prevalent than most people think, the conservative estimate now is that one out of every 6 people has Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Those numbers seem to be climbing each year.

I constantly see articles and videos that claim “How to beat a Narcissist,” or “How to live with a Narcissist,” even “How to understand a Narcissist.”

I am here to tell you that with over 40 years’ experience with a Grandiose Narcissistic spouse and now a Malignant Narcissist neighbor, those ideas fall on deaf ears with me.

It normally takes a while for you to see the habitual lying, the constant gaslighting, the continual personal insults to see this for what it is it is nothing more than mental abuse.

It took me years to put a name to it, but we are talking 40 years ago, the beginning of the internet and a time where the words Narcissistic Personality Disorder was still new in the field of Psychology.

I was first told about the disorder by a friend after a lengthy discussion about my marriage. He listened patiently and after a few hours he said to me, “I want you to research this term NPD, once you have done it get back to me.”

Well this opened a whole new world to me, I was seeing one tactic after another that a typical Narcissist uses. She had degraded, lied, and gaslighted me almost our entire marriage. Back in that time chatrooms were becoming a popular way of communicating with people of like interests on the internet. I was shocked after joining one such group on Narcissism. I wasn’t as shock by the subject matter than I was about how many people were in the group….thousands!

I’ve written most of my life so I decided to keep a journal and the subsequent progression of my marriage. I went for counseling both marriage and individual for 7 years before the Psychiatrist said there wasn’t anything else to see me for, but he wanted to see my spouse separately. That was the end of that because in her eyes I was the one with problems not her. I was now planning my escape.

Sadly I waited way to long but I made a pact with myself that once our son graduated from college the marriage would be over. I missed that goal by 3 weeks but it was finally done.

Because narcissists love the interaction, the back and forth, so to speak. The interaction can mild or even screaming, but the narcissist gets their “supply” from that interaction. If you refuse the supply the rejection stage is just around the corner for you.

The only real way to get away from the Narcissist is to cut off any and all communication. If you are dealing with a spouse and have underage children that you share custody with only communicate in one form, whether it be email or texts. Keep all communication to as few words as possible and DOCUMENT EVERYTHING.

Don’t wait for years down the road to try to recall certain incidents because over time those recollections will become clouded, it’s just human nature. This documentation is really necessary because if you are dealing with the legal system in any way, you will find out that Judges are easily fooled by a Narcissist’s tactics in the beginning. Just remember how long it took you to discover it. Month, date, time of day, and year in your journal will show a judge your diligence and record keeping skills.

Please understand there is no such a thing as getting even with a Narcissist because they don't have the social restraints we have as normal people. There is nothing they won't do or boundary they won't cross to hurt you. We would never act the way they do because we have empathy and wouldn't want someone to do that to us. Never let a Narcissist know that their intimidation is working, even if it is causing you great mental anguish and anxiety. These are the very things they feed on and fear is one of those things.

In court keep as unemotional as possible and expect the lies and accusations to come as they always do. Hire a lawyer that is experienced in this type of behavior, but when interviewing them use catch phrases such “supply” and “gaslighting” to see if they truly grasp the concept otherwise the whole situation may be lost on them also. In your journal NEVER mention the word Narcissism in any form as the court will see you as a self-professed Psychiatrist, and that is the last thing you need.

One legal device they will used is “peace order” in some states it’s a “restraining order” or even a “Domestic abuse order.” These are what is called Ex parte orders and require no proof to be enacted it is merely the petitioner’s complaint against you. They are about $100 to execute and could cost you a lot of money for legal representation on your part. The court doesn’t wait around to enact these ex parte orders. From inception to court date is 6 days in my state.

It would be wise to have a lawyer ready on your side to defend you in the possibility of such charges. Once heard in court the judge will normally extend the temporary order to a period of 6 months of no contact. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that will be the end of the peace order either. The Malignant Narcissist will probably send you threatening letters through his attorney claiming yet more lies about how you violated the peace order and will file a contempt of court petition, to which you will have to respond with an attorney once again.

Now if you defend yourself well and your attorney represented you perfectly and the contempt of court petition was denied, it still doesn’t mean the end of it. The petitioner has 30 days to apply for an appeal. If the appeal is granted the case will now go from district court to circuit court and be heard all over again as if the original peace order never happened.

Sadly this how our court systems work. I my case the peace order has now expired and we are once again on hold awaiting his application for appeal. As you can see this can be a revolving door for a lying Narcissist and a legal nightmare for the victim.

In conclusion there is only one way to deal with a Narcissist and that is to severe all contact PERIOD! Eventually they will see that you no longer give them the supply they need and they will move on to a new victim that they already have waiting in the wings. There is no way to “win” here only to survive. Try to keep your emotions in check and understand they are the ones who lack empathy, morals, and respect for anything. It is up to you to keep your sanity through this tough journey, just know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it’s not always an oncoming train. Treat yourself well!
