Governor JB Pritzker, the governor who twists everything is up for election.  Darren Bailey is trying to unseat him again.

But the real work is to get rid of the incumbents from both parties that are in the Illinois House and Senate who are not acting in the best interests of the State of Illinois while acting in the best interest Iowa, Indiana, Florida, Tennessee and many other states that Illinois residents are fleeing to.  Also, clean up all of the other statewide offices. It is time to get to work.

Dick Durbin is stepping down from the US Senate, finally.  Juliana Stratton the Democrat is going against Don Tracy the Republican.  Thsi seat also contributes to people leaving Illinois.

Illinois, get to work and fix your state.

There are many different medical procedures and techniques.  Some are "covered" by insurance.  But there are many others that exists.  

I had some severe knee stiffness and soreness. I had heard from many with knee replacement surgery.  To do this I would be out for a number of weeks with curling season just about to start.  Then I learned of a Chiropractic procedure that if my knees did fit the situation I could continue to be active and curl.

The procedure was not covered by insurance.  There was a twenty four months same as cash option.

A year after the procedure was done my knees are working properly.  The twenty four months will soon be completed.  And yes I was able to curl.

For years hypnotherapy kept me playing softball.  I had developed a sore throwing arm on and off all the years.  Hypnosis helped me with pain management.  Today I have limited pain in my arm if any.

I do see a regular practitioner but we discuss.  We come to a conclusion.

Editorialpinups.com advice: Look beyond the insurance policy!!  There may be cost, but if and until the medical payment system gets straightened out weigh the costs and it may cost you more if you only do what insurance can cover.

The United States, its 50 subordinate states and various territories are not run top down, but bottom up.  Kingdoms and communist countries are ruled top down.   

 

If Marvin Martian were to come to the United States and say take me to your leader, we would take Marvin to a governing body, not one person.  This may just confuse Marvin.  By history, people are led by an individual.  In the old testament, God first, then the judges, were not enough for the Israelites.  So first Saul, then David, the Solomon, then an earthly mess of failed kingdoms.

 

The founders of the United States had just dumped a tyrannical government led by the then King of England.  Based on their religious beliefs that all were created equal in God’s eyes and that liberty and freedom were nature’s desired way, the government they would create would be for the people by the people and not be a full time life long occupation, but an interruption for a few years then return to live under the laws they created.

 

They also knew that they would need to have dialog, discuss and debate issues to form the laws for the country.  These three D’s must be peaceful, but vibrant, based upon fact, knowledge, science, and empathy.  People cannot die during debate at the hands of others.  The debate if tried to be silenced will only create a strong debate and make the terminators look like fools and idiots.  

 

The United States thrives with robust debate, discussion and dialog.  Anything less is worrisome and dangerous.

 

The 2024 NCAA Women's basketball final four had two games with over ten million viewers.  Those games had Caitlin Clark playing. Caitlin Clark has grown crowds not only in her college games especially her senior year, but also in her short time in the WNBA.

The 2025 NCAA Women's basketball final game had a good healthy viewership.  It had more viewers than final four games not including Caitlin Clark.  But it had more than previous NCAA Women's basketball final games.  

Understand.  There is growth in interest and there is the bubble in growth hen a specific player garnered the interest of a nation.

While a team with the greatest player drew more than the team that was coached by perhaps the best Women's coach in the NCAA history.

Growth is there, keep it growing and understand the possible peaks!

The tariffs that the Trump administration is putting in place will give incentive to bring manufacturing back to the United States, manufacturing critical to the defense of the United States!

The corpse has screwed up this government and near about destroyed our standing in the world sphere.  He has promulgated never ending wars with money gifts to countries taking from future resources.  Both Republicans and Democrats must be put on the record of governing.  No longer shall un-elected bureaucrats make rules and laws.  The constitution defines the process.  The process is one of accountability.

Mr. Johnson, get the laws to the floor that are wanted by President Trump and all of his advisers. Get a budget passed and not continuing resolutions. Get these bills passed in the house so the republican led Senate can be put on the record.  Democrats don't participate, they are on the record.  This is what Newt Gingrich did with the "Contract with America".  He made elected officials on the record.

Listen to MTG. She knows more about what is happening and what needs to be done and is in the record.  She is not afraid to say it.

The only way this government gets rid of the administrative state is to vote it out according to the rules of the constitution!

Mr. Johnson, many are praying for strength for you including the staff at editorialpinups.com in this endeavour!

The open borders crowd have come up with a new way to create a distraction for discussing illegal immigration.  Bring up a legal immigration program for people bringing in specific skilled foreign nationals to do specific skilled jobs.  While the H-1B program is not perfect and like all government programs has those that abuse it and there may be some fraudulent activity, it is a program designed for legal entrance into the country.

All programs should be under review whenever there is a new Administration, and for that sake, when there is a Congress.

But do not be fooled.  This program is legal.  There are applications, sponsors and employers.  Far different than traipsing into the country illegally!

And what about all of this unaccounted Ukraine money.

Elon shrunk X and X is still running, running better than when it was twitter under a different owner. Elon and Vivek have started identifying waste.  They brought it to Trump's attention with the continuing resolution and Trump spoke up.  Others spoke up also! Changes were mad.

This is just a positive start.  Watch fore more to come!

Stepping down from the House was suppose to lock the results of the allegations investigation by the House. But... storage area hacked!  Investigation is out!  Incomplete though.  But just enough to create more havoc.

Many thought he was nominated to do the job.  Dana Loesch has another take.

Most interesting is the nomination of Linda McMahon of the WWE fame for Education Secretary.  There is a stated goal to eliminate the Department of Education.  Will it be done in one fall or two?

Editorialpinups.com supports the nomination of Matt Gaetz for the Attorney General.  He is needed to clean up the Department of Justice.

President-elect Donald Trump is wasting no time in building his team.  Some were expected, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to break up the adminstrative state and also make the government run efficiently.  Tulsi Gabbard Director of Intelligence, Kristi Noem Homeland Security, Marco Rubio Secretary of State, Pete Hegseth DEfense, John Ratcliff CIA, Mike Waltz NSA, Elise Stefanik Un Ambasador, Mike Huckabee Ambassador to Isreal, Tom Homan Border Tsar, RFK Jr. Health and Human Services.

But the one that is making the insiders piss, moan and panic is Matt Gaetz, the selection for attorney general.  This must mean that cleaning up the attorney generals office means that the entrenched uniparty reps and senators are brick shitting saying he is no good.

That means they are nervous and running! I wonder why that is?

Reflective of Biden policies and the economy.  Many aspects of free fall!

 

So you thought that the 4 to 5 percent raise was great. Well, 8 percent inflation, the stock market tanking, crypto currency tanking!

The Alleged Biden administration (yeah right, 80 million votes) is doing all things wrong. Or is it intentional?

At least there is purpose for the greenback.

editorialpinups.com is introducing Outtakes. Over the years editorialpinups.com has accumulated a number of unused pictures that have been left on the editing floor but look quite nice. Some racier than others, but all worth noting.

Editorialpinups will combine a message with the picture but the picture does not necessarily match the message. In other words, you will get to see some of the other fine pinup portraiture outtakes.
