They Called It A Test, Feels Real To Us

By Ray Cardello for October 5, 2023, Season 22 / Post 22

At 2:20 PM on October 4th, the Government, through the FCC, tested the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. Regardless of carrier, every cellphone in the country got a screeching audible signal and an alert on their home screen. This alert is an extension of the old system we used to see on our TV screen or hear on our radio. With cable, satellite, streaming, and whatever else is out there, the old system did not work to reach the majority of Americans. Since we are a country glued to our cell phones, the system tested today appears to work for today’s technology.

Scheduling the test might be a bad idea this week as many see the country in such a horrific place that maybe we should be sounding the alarm. Anybody with their head above the sand, and I fear that is the minority, knows we are a hot mess. We owe it to the 24% of the voters to wake them up to reality. Joe Biden is destroying our country. It is a tough call whether it is Joe’s plan or on behalf of China or Russia. We know that Joe Biden is not fully functional, so somebody other than the President is calling the shots.

The crisis and emergencies are everywhere, and we may be reaching a tipping point where we cannot correct these situations and the country is lost. It has been said that I only write about what is wrong. That is not true. I contacted the local Government and school board. I Faxed my Federal Representatives about every issue on my list. I resorted to Fax versus the contact form on their websites. They both go into the heavens, but at least I have a record of the Fax. In the old days, you used to get a response, albeit a customary form letter, but today, you get nothing. I have a stack of Faxes and a complete silence from Shaheen, Hassan, and Pappas. As a Republican, they do not see me as a constituent and as they have all qualified for their Congressional Pensions, why put in the effort to speak to the people. That is why I write.

Where to begin logging the issues? If you listen to KJP every day, you are wrong. All is well. She is wrong. Biden can say the economy is strong, but the only thing strong is rising prices. The typical shopping basket is probably 30-40% higher than last year, and a quick run to the grocery store will set you back $75 to $100. Gas prices are pushing $4.00 in New England and $7 on the Gold Coast. Home heating fuels are up 30%, and we have yet to start heating our homes.

Auto and healthcare workers are striking, and their wages have been frozen for years, but nobody is freezing costs. We are short on workers in every field, and the Administration is more concerned with taking every gas appliance and vehicle away from us rather than urging people to get back to work.

The Southern Border is hemorrhaging, and we will see 10 Million illegals enter America on Joe Biden’s watch. Housing, wages, rents, medical costs, and education are all being impacted adversely by the Biden Doctrine.

Our standing on the International Stage has been damaged. China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran all flex their muscles, and we are watching our military fall into disrepair and lack readiness. We are dumping billions of dollars into Ukraine with no accountability and no way of seeing how much gets funneled back to Biden’s LLCs.

We should be sounding the alarm, but this is not a test. This mess is the vision of the Democrat Party, and that is who we should be focusing our attention. Democrats are an existential threat, and that is no hyperbole
