A View From The Castle - News Blog

Where Is My $49.3 Million For The Distress Caused By Hillary Clinton’s Lies

Can anyone explain why it takes so long to get simple answers to simple questions”


Maybe the powers that be think we will forget about these issues and “move along.”  But I — for one —  have not forgotten.  And I want to know:


1.  Why no one was held responsible for the 13 unnecessary military deaths that occurred when our country foolishly abandoned Afghanistan and whatever became of those Americans who were left behind enemy lines?


2.  Why do we still not know who committed the felony of leaking a Supreme Court preliminary ruling?  If our investigators can’t discover the identity of this person then we should hang fire them and hire new people with brains who know how to use them.


3.  Why did Ghislaine Maxwell get transferred to a “country club” prison in Florida and where is the book of Jeffrey Epstein’s that has the names of all of his pedophile clients?


4.  When is John Durham going to give us the report on the Russian hoax or has John Durham died?


5.  Why has the FBI not investigated the Hunter Biden laptop which they have had in their possession since October of 2019 (not 202)  since 20 freakin’19!  There are at least seven felonies self-reported on the laptop by Hunter Biden himself in his own words and in his own pornographic photos.


6.  When will the 50 intelligence officers who proclaimed the Hunter Biden laptop to be Russian disinformation apologize to the American public for interfering in the 2020 election ad when will they be stripped of their security clearances?


7.  Whatever happened to the 5 Muslim immigrants that the Pope took in to live at the Vatican?


8.  Why do we still not know who placed the pipe bombs outside the DNC and RNC headquarters on Jan. 6?  There are security cameras and Ring doorbell cameras on every street and corner in Washington D.C.  It would be so easy to trace this person back to their vehicle and then trace the license plate.  Also - surely there was some DNA left on the bombs.  If our FBI can not identify this very obvious “terrorist” after 17 months then we are at the mercy of every bad person in the world who has snuck into our country in the last two years.


9.  Why has the old person caught on take on Jan. 5 and Jan.6urging protestors to “go into the capitol” been arrested and thrown in jail?  Everyone in the world knows who Ray Epps is.  Everyone in the world knows where he lives (ranch in Texas).  Why is he still not been prosecuted for insurrection?


10. Why is podcaster Alex Jones being fined $49.3 million for causing “distress” to the families of children lost in the Sandy Hook school massacre?  If they can fine people for causing distress by telling lies, then why have we not fined the 9/11 deniers or the Holocaust deniers.  And how about Hillary Clinton who lied about Donald Trump doing dastardly things in Russia by peddling the infamous Steele Dossier?  Her lies caused Trump, his family, and me and millions of other Americans great distressful the past six years.  


Where is my $49.3 million?

Cookie Queen Cakes

For your wedding, birthday or any other special event

It is most important that your wedding cake taste good. You want guests leaving your reception to say, “That is the best wedding cake I have ever tasted.” That is why you have chosen THE Cookie Queen to bake the cake for your Special Day. My cakes taste really good. I do not specialize in elaborate decorations.


I specialize in making “one of a kind” cakes. I do not have a portfolio of cake photos because I simply refuse to do any cake design twice. Each cake is unique and is designed for YOU alone. If you have a photo of what you would like your cake to look like, please bring it to our initial consultation or Email it to me (cookiequ@verizon.net) prior to your consultation to save time.


Here is a selection of the most popular Cookie Queen wedding cake ideas:


1. A two-tiered “show” cake with the 10” bottom to be cut at the reception and served at the head table and the 7” top to be frozen for the First Anniversary. Undecorated double-layer sheet cakes are served to the other guests from the kitchen. This way everybody gets icing. There are no center cuts.


2. Filled cupcakes and Weecakes (mini cupcakes) are ideal because your guests can choose their favorite flavor of cake and frosting. I recommend still having a small two-tiered “show” cake to cut at the reception.


3. A selection of 8” or 9” cakes in many different flavors: You can choose the usual chocolate, vanilla, marble or anything else you might want to have: carrot, spice, chocolate-cherry, chocolate- raspberry, German chocolate, rum cream, lemon cream, pineapple cream, peanutbutter-chocolate or a choice of your own. Cakes are on display where guests can select their favorite and cut their own slice.


4. 8” cakes on each table - so the guests can serve themselves at each table. This provides dessert and eliminates the expense of table centerpieces. But - there sometimes is wasted cake with this method. However - any leftover cake can be frozen for use at a later time.


Prices: based on the batter, filling, frosting and number of servings you will need.


Floral Decoration: I will coordinate with your florist and have them design the flowers or I will work with your colors and design the flower decorations myself from either real or silk flowers..


Frosting: I do butter cream or whipped cream only. If you wish a smooth rolled fondant finish, please select another baker. The fondant may look nice but tastes terrible. Also I do not use “white” chocolate. There is no such thing and “white chocolate” has a strange after-taste. (FYI: White chocolate contains no chocolate liquor. It is a mix of cocoa butter, sugar, lecithin, milk solids and vanilla. Chocolate liquor is the brown paste leftover after the cocoa butter has been extracted from the cocoa nibs.)

Stop Wearing Those Dangerous Face Masks

Mask Mandates Caused Higher COVID-19 Death Rates - Follow The Science


I did not write the following news report.  This study was reported by one of the most dependable, unbiased and intelligent ”real” journalists writing today  — Natalie Winters.


Winters  has broken many government scandal stories and will be hailed for years to come as the person who puts a stop to moronic mask mandates.


Winters wrote this week in the National Pulse and in the Citizens Free Press about  a new medical journal report analyzing fatality rates across the state of Kansas.  The study follows another recently published analysis of international data showing the same relationship between COVID-19 and masks. 


“The paper analyzed “whether mandatory mask use influenced the case fatality rate in Kansas” during the time period of August 1st, 2020 to October 15th. Kansas was used for comparison because the state allowed each of its 105 counties to decide whether or not to implement mask mandates, with 81 counties deciding against the measure.


“The most important finding from this study is that contrary to the accepted thought that fewer people are dying because infection rates are reduced by masks, this was not the case,” summarized the paper.


“Results from this study strongly suggest that mask mandates actually caused about 1.5 times the number of deaths or 50% more deaths compared to no mask mandates.”


“The study also posited a potential reason for the disparity in risk ratio (RR) for dying from COVID-19:


“A rationale for the increased RR by mandating masks is probably that virions that enter or those coughed out in droplets are retained in the face mask tissue, and after quick evaporation of the droplets, hypercondensed droplets or pure virions (virions not inside a droplet) are re-inhaled from a very short distance during inspiration.”


“Dubbed the ‘Foegen effect,”’the theory suggests that COVID-19 “virions spread (because of their smaller size) deeper into the respiratory tract.”


“They bypass the bronchi and are inhaled deep into the alveoli, where they can cause pneumonia instead of bronchitis, which would be typical of a virus infection.”


“These findings suggest that mask use might pose a yet unknown threat to the user instead of protecting them, making mask mandates a debatable epidemiologic intervention,” concludes the paper.”


Now - let’s see … who also has been saying this for the past two years??   Oh, yeah, it was ME!  I know something about how respiration works because paid attention during class in fifth grade where it was explained.  And from my seven years of medical studies to be a good paramedic I know something about the size of virion droplets and because I was a home ec major and dealt with the construction of cloth I also know something about density of various kinds of materials that were used for masks….cotton, linen, polyester, etc. etc. etc.


But you don’t need to know how a spirometer works or microns or pounds per square inch to know that face masks don’t work.  All you have to do is go outside on a very cold night wearing your mask and exhale.  Then tell me what you see.  Oh, yeah — your breath.  No kidding.  Face masks don’t work.  


You want to wear a useless diaper on your face, be my guest.  Just don’t force me to do something so stupid and ridiculous.  


Also - if you are one who did this…please take time right now to look up the word “lemming.”
