BEST INSURANCE POLICY I EVER BOUGHT

After spending easily over a thousand dollars over 15 years to repair the water line from the city meter to my house, it was time for insurance.  I paid $42.00 for the year.  Today's bill was easily over $500.00.  I hope to see it once Roto-Router submits the bill.  AWS assigned the case to Roto-Rooter, and they came immediately because of the leak. The repair was approved before Roto-Rooter arrived at my home.

My lawsuit against the city will be amended to include this mess.  The plumbing company which did the original work to replace all of my copper pipes with flexible PVC did not use copper for the outside connections.  The PVC was damaged by the sun and broke.  This is a violation of the code.  Although the city did issue multiple code violations after the project was complete, they did not issue a code violation for the PVC extending outside the house.  

It is clear the city inspectors are clueless as to the code.  Why are they not trained?  The other two spickets need repair, but they are not an emergency.  The low-cost repair for one is $350.00 in labor.  The parts are under $20.00.  I think I can find a DYI video for that one.  

In the last year I have spent over $1000 for plumbing repairs.  The big bill was the clogged line where my line enters the city line.  For $9 a month I can have complete insurance coverage for all the plumbing problems.  For me it is worth the $9 a month. 

I like the fact they use Roto-Rooter.  They were already my company of choice.

 

TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS ABOUT TO START DETAINING IMMIGRANTS WHO HAVE BEEN WAITING IN SOME CASES 3 YEARS FOR THEIR GREEN CARD

According to Trump he has shut down the border.  Illegal crossings are at an all-time low.  So why then is the Trump Administration building so many new detention centers?  He intends to round up people waiting on a Green Card.

"Federal officials have been scouting cities and counties across the U.S. for places to hold immigrants as they roll out a massive $45 billion expansion of detention facilities financed by Trump's recent tax-cutting law."

Can you imagine what can be done with $45 billion?  Health insurance, housing, services for veterans.

NBC News

The Administration has the address of every applicant for a Green Card.  It will be a massive round-up.  The Administration has already said it has all but stopped issuing Green Cards.

We are talking spouses who in some cases has been here for some 20+ years.  They graduated our high schools and in some cases universities.  

Many are married with several children.  They spent years living in the shadows trying to raise the money to apply for a green card.  In the case of married immigrants, it was almost a perfunctory process towards approval. Not anymore.  They will be round-up when the detention centers are ready.  Children will watch their mother, father dragged out of their homes to be deported.

The Democrats are doing what they do best, nothing.

They have to know the round-up is coming.  There needs to be immediate congressional hearings to get a straight answer from ICE and others who will be involved in the roundup. 

This is tragic.  The Democrats choose to be complacent, and thereby complicit in the soon to be a holocaust type attack on families.  They were told to play by the rules.  They did, but Trump then changed the rules.

The MAGA supporters fail to understand many of the mothers and fathers about to be deported have children who vote.  They have large families who vote.

WE KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT FROM VICENTE GONZALEZ

"I'm shocked Trump is deporting all the Green Card applicants."  Gonzalez is clueless on this issue.  He should be leading the call for Congressional hearings to determine Trump's intent with the new detention centers and if he intends to start detaining Green Card applicants now that the applications are no longer being processed.

 

ADELA GARZA A HARD NO FOR TSC - SHE PROUDLY STANDS WITH THE CORRUPT SAENZ FAMILY

THE ANTI-INCUMBENT REVOLUTION MUST CONTINUE - VOTE ADELA DOWN

Saenz would never sue me on this issue because he knows what I can prove.  He wife Delia Saenz turns a blind eye to the corruption because she likes the money.  Adela Garza. is desperate to be part of the cliche which keeps Cameron County oppressed, because she needs to be relevant.

If you vote for Adela Garza you are rewarding the bad conduct which denied Maria Fidela Garza and Mary Tipton justice.  Any public official who turns a blind eye to Saenz criminal enterprise for an endorsement should not hold any public office.

Also do not forget how she humiliated herself and our education system when she ran for Congress.  

At minute 2:44 listen to her say when she is elected to Congress and goes to DSC to implement all of her promises.  As if not knowing it is DC and not DSC, she seems confused that as only 1 of 435 members she is powerless to do anything on her own. She either lies or is ignorant.

Adela Garza:  "I am going to implement everything you have told me the last few years"

She makes the above statement after stating when she goes to DSC - our capital is Washington DC, or DC for short - not DSC

I can go on for pages, but the injustice after the murder of two innocent women should be all you need to vote No on Adela.  We need to demand Adela apologize to these families for her support of Luis Saenz and his wife, Delia.

Also do not forget TSC still does not have a job training Liaison with Space X or the port to insure we are providing the necessary job training for the new jobs soon to come online.

NO ON ADELA GARZA - YOU SUPPORT SAENZ YOU OPPOSE JUSTICE FOR THESE MURDERED WOMEN.

WHAT IS ADELA GARZA TURNING A BLIND EYE TO? - THESE FAMILIES WANT JUSTICE

MARIA FIDELA GARZA WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE JUSTICE

During the 2024 legislative session, at the request of Texas AG Paxton, the law was changed to make it easier to remove Saenz from the office of DA.

The law is not 100% clear, but it basically says for official misconduct on all issues since his election are subject to review.

It will begin with day one since Saenz retook office.  Saenz' client Sandra Blanco allegedly killed Maria Fidela Garza as a pedestrian.  Blanco was on the run for 15 years as Saenz' client.  When Saenz took office he had Pete Gilman seek to dismiss the first degree felony case against Saenz's client Sandra Blanco.  Round one did not work.  Even Judge Euresti would not go along.

So Euresti forced the appointment of a special prosecutor.  Blanco was on the run from a first degree felony, and Euresti gave her probation.

BV archives:  "This morning in a state of panic, Luis Saenz went to court and spoke with Ed Cyganiewicz and Louis Sorola, before the plea."

Ed Cyganiewicz was made the special prosecutor, since Saenz was conflicted out.  Louis Sorola substituted in as Blanco's defense counsel. Cyganiewicz was also the special prosecutor in the cases of Saenz nephew by marriage.  You know the case where the victim was left nearly dead on the side of the road. That will also be in the removal action. 

Who gets probation on a first-degree felony case after being on the run for 15 years?  I had an eyewitness who was Sandra Blanco's roommate who told me Blanco's daughter was giving her the money to get Saenz as the DA to dismiss the charges. 

I will be posting example after example.  It will take days.

I will not be the plaintiff in the removal case.

WE GET SOME JUSTICE FOR MARY TIPTON BY VOTING HELL NO ON ADELA GARZA

THE CASE OF MARY TIPTON WHICH WILL BE USED IN REMOVAL OF SAENZ, WHO PLAYED ALONG WITH VISITING JUDGE BANALES TO ENSURE THE DEFENDANT WALKED

This case is tragic at so many levels, but mostly because Mary Tipton, the woman killed did not get justice.  The truth is justice, even if the criminal defendant walks, so long as on the truth Mary Tipton would have received justice.

Marisa Hernandez was charged with "failure to render aid" 

Based on the criminal charge, I believe the case could have gone either way had Judge Banales not tainted the jury deliberations with the spoliation instruction.  This basically allowed the jury to infer the missing evidence was in the criminal defendant's favor.  But there was no missing evidence.  

The missing evidence was Marisa Hernandez along with family searching the area where she thought she hit someone or something.   The tape was changed, edited, who knows the truth, allegedly by the investigating detective.  It showed Mary Tipton being hit, but then the part of the video showing the search was gone.

HOW SPOLIATION WORKS

Clearly in a case of failure to render aid, a video of the defendant and the family searching for a possible person who may have been it, is more than enough for a not-guilty verdict.  This is why I say without Judge Banales playing free and lose with the law, Marisa Hernandez still could have been found not guilty.

You see, all of the people in the field with flashlights looking for a possible victim were allowed to testify that they went out to the field to see if they could find someone so they could render aid.  That testimony if properly presented should have been enough for a not guilty. Although the possible negative is how long it took to do the search.  A jury could have believed because it was dark and raining, Marisa Hernandez needed time to find help.

The jury could have gone either way.

BUT THAT IS NOT WHAT HAPPENED

There was no basis in law for Judge Banales to issue the spoliation instruction.  All of the evidence which was on the missing part of the tape got in as live testimony, which is always better than a video take. 

The only damage I saw for the defendant was the time lapse between the hit and search. Given it was dark and raining the jury could have found that was cause for the delay. But the impermissible spoliation instruction was all but Judge Banales telling the jury to find the defendant not guilty.

Saenz's office could have filed a mandamus to stop the spoliation instruction.  A day or two of delay would have allowed the court of appeals to rule on the matter.  I have done the research and his is the proper procedure. In re State ex rel. Weeks, 391 S.W.3d 117, 125-26, (Tex.Crim.App.2013) (orig. proceeding

Again, the issue of justice is not the result, but how you get there.  The defendant could have been found not guilty without the spoliation instruction and then the case would have been clean.  But Saenz let it pass, and Mary Tipton was denied justice.

This along with other cases involving Banales will be cited in the Petition to Remove Saenz.  This is how Mary Tipton will receive justice. 

 ALBANIANS SAY, "HELL NO" TO KUSHNER/TRUMP DEVELOPMENT

Imagine had Brownsville stood up to Elon Musk.  Albania's powerbrokers are not going to chance being forced from office.  Protest can work, when you are in the right.

 

SO MANY DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS

PROSTATE:  I am finally being scheduled for partial removal of the prostate. It is not a big deal.  Men are foolish about the surgery. Yes, it is possible I may not fully recover my use of the prostate.  There is a good chance I will not be able to get someone pregnant. That is actually good news.

The surgery can cause Retrograde Ejaculation.  This is yet another natural form of birth control.  The ejaculatory experience is the same as a regular ejaculation in terms of pleasure; the sperm just goes into the bladder.  

It will be several days using a catheter, but in most cases, the patient has a lot better quality of life after the surgery.

If the biggest side effect of the surgery is not getting someone pregnant, I say it is a win. 

Prostate health has changed.  There are noncancerous reasons to remove part of the prostate.  During this process the doctor can visualize the prostate for possible cancer. Unless you are in a medical emergency it seems to be the best way to assess the man for prostate cancer.  The painful prostate biopsy in many cases is no longer needed since the doctor is going into the prostate anyway to remove part.  If the doctor sees anything unusual, they can biopsy it while removing part of the prostate for unusual inflammation. 

I will say with 100% certainty, a man's PSA is not a reliable test for cancer or inflammation. There are all sorts of PSA testing.  The doctors do not agree as to the relevance of any of the test results.  Endocrinologist will tell you, a man on a high dosage insulin can have a false low PSA.  The urologists are clear, that is junk science. 

My issue is, most doctors believe Andro gel can grow prostate cancer.  But I need my Andro gel to reduce my blood sugar and improve my sleep.  It is also believed to have positive cardiac properties.

So, who do I believe?  If I have cancer and use the Andro gel, I can make it worse.  So now after more than a decade of being told how dangerous Ando gel is, I am now being told the science does not support Andro gel increasing the chances of cancer.  In the past I had doctors yell at me telling me if I continue the Andro gel I would get prostate cancer.  Now today I am told that was all junk science.

The good news without the old fashion biopsy my doctor will get a good look at the prostate during the partial removal. I am cool with how my doctor is proceeding.  But doctors need to understand it is confusing to the patient when one doctor claims Andro gel can cause or make cancer worse, and another says it is all junk science.  Then there is the issue of the doctors saying high levels of insulin can cause the PSA to be artificially low thereby causing the doctor to miss the cancer diagnosis., and then another doctor calls that junk science.

THE THROAT

It took some 22 months, but we finally know the problem.  The TMJ is for sure inflamed, making things worse.  But the throat doctor just listening to me speak, and to what I do to start breathing again was certain as to the problem.  She scoped me while stimulating a spasm of the vocal cords.

The vocal cords are damaged.  The damage GERD has caused the entrance of the throat is very visible. It has been so long in the making my voice has changed.  In fact, my pronunciation in Spanish has changed.  Yesterday while eating lunch, I ordered salsa verde to go with my meal.  No matter how many times I said it she could not understand.  It sounded like someone for the first time trying to pronounce words in Spanish. 

The diagnosis is Laryngospasm. 

Here is a short video.  To see how the vocal cords cause the spasm. Go to the end, it is about a minute.

I am waiting on the VA to approve the speech therapy.  Without it things will only get worse.

HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

Medicine is about balancing the good and the bad.  Normally a doctor would blame this on the GERD.  The GERD is the secondary issue.

If someone has a hiatal hernia any medical recommendation must take the hiatal hernia and its related GERD into consideration.  Before I started Ozempic I was already diagnosed a long time ago with a hiatal hernia and gastric paresis. Doctors love to blame Ozempic for the problem, when in fact the problem was well in place before use of Ozempic or any similar medicine.  I will admit the Ozempic was horrible for me.  It did not help with my blood sugar and in fact increased the GERD big time.  I am now on Mounjaro; the difference is night and day. 

For years the doctors insisted I should shrink my stomach as a way to reduce how much I eat.  I did well at shrinking my stomach.  But such as Ozempic does when you shrink your stomach, you increase the amount of acid going up into the esophagus.  You cannot win.

I do not know if the therapy will repair my vocal cords.  I am regularly doing the one exercise the doctor gave me.  It seems to have reduced the amount of GERD.  Of note she recommends Gaviscon to help control the GERD.  She is the first doctor ever to embrace my use of Gaviscon since age 19. I will reduce the amount of acid with Gaviscon and peppermint tea.

THE DIABETES

For me there is so much debate about how to treat diabetes the patients needlessly worry.  The doctors recommend the medications but are not very good at guiding the patient through the process.

I have been treated for sleep deprivation for more than 20 years.  Mind you, October will make 2 years since they started treating my diabetes.  Only in the last few weeks do we seem to have it under control. 

No one told me if you have sleep problems you should take your insulin in the morning while fasting.  It made a big difference with my sleep.

I am on a high dosage of insulin, and the lowest dosage of Mounjaro.  The combination seems to work.  But the appointments are too far apart.  So, I have to manage the diabetes based on what I have learned about dosages. FYI, Mounjaro has no impact on my weight.  You can starve yourself, but if you have no metabolism, you cannot lose weight.  In my case it causes a "food coma," which knocks me out if I eat the wrong thing.  I truly limit myself to two very small meals twice a day. 

After three weeks of very good BS, I will now decrease the amount of insulin I use.  I will go from 140 units in the AM to 136.  If I stay well within normal for two weeks I will go to 132 units.  It is a process, I have learned.  I am assuming the long delay between appointments is an insurance issue.

 

SPURS WILL WIN IN GAMES 1, 3, AND 5 - AFTER WEMBY RECOVERS FROM EACH GAME

The Spur's coach has realized, Wemby needs more than two days to recover after playing hard.  Wemby is big an requires more recovery time than the other players.

This is how I get to the Spurs winning games 1, 3, and 5.  It would be nice if they could win game four, but it is too soon to see how the Nicks hold up against the Spurs.

SOME FUN FACTS

HISTORY SHOWS INCUMBENTS ON THE LOSING SIDE OF ELECTIONS

Voting against incumbents is about saying, "we want change." It could mean voting for someone who is not particularly qualified. JJ Deleon's latest mailer would normally be enough for me to say "hell no to JJ."  It is actually that bad.  But it is a hard no on Adela.  Why, Adela and company have done nothing to create a TSC liaison with SpaceX and all the other companies creating jobs in Cameron County

TSC's job training center is not geared to the new manufacturing jobs SpaceX intends to bring to Cameron County.  So effectively the TSC job training center is worthless. It should shock everyone SpaceX will go to the Texas Department of Corrections for trained workers in Production and Inventory control.

So, it is a hard no on Adela for reelection.  By getting rid of incumbents, it will force change.  We may have to suffer a bad new elected official for one cycle, but no incumbent will ever feel safe again.

WE ARE WINNING THE ANTI INCUMBENT WAR

Incumbents who have lost in latest elections

Tony Yzaguirre

David Betancourt

Eddie Trevino

Joey Lopez

Senator John Cornyn

This hard-core reality should empower the voters we control the elections.

This week is a real hard-core no to Adela Garza.  Also do not forget the taxpayers had to pay Lily Terceros attorney's fees after she sued Adela Garza, and TSC.
