Note: This article is for those who are familiar with Windows Network configuration, Sharing Public Folders and Troubleshooting. Jumbo Frames can increase the throughput on a Gigabit or higher speed LAN port significantly. It requires a separate network and that all devices on that network use the same Jumbo Frame size. On Windows 11, a Jumbo Frame test bed network can easily AND CHEAPLY be setup with Windows Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) services. For brevity, we will assume you have 2 brand new systems with Windows 11 freshly installed, updated with good drivers. Each with a 2.5Gz Ethernet Port and...

The Democrats are CruelThey launch an economic boycott while Americans suffer under Biden's ruinous inflation. They work against peace in the Ukraine, telling Zolinski to demand things and not work with President Trump. WHile Ukrainians are dying daily. How could they be so cruel? They have learned nothing from the last election.

Trump holds the Trump Card in his Hand When a president of the United States signs an Executive Order stating an Emergency he holds Trump cards in his hands. And especially so when it is within the Executive Branch. Trump has done so. And USAID is within the Executive Branch. Now, the army is within the Executive Branch and Trump also signed an emergency executive order for them to seal our southern border. If we look through the Army we can more clearly see what the Trump card looks like. Say, a Private in the army, built some bombs, blew...

Hundreds of protesters marched in streets across the U.S. on Sunday to protest President Donald Trump’s deportation policies. Protesters in Dallas shouted “Mexico, Mexico, Mexico” while carrying Mexican flags.

Why do we Have Trump as President Today? I think it is due to one person, His Wife Melania Trump. And that Hat she wore at the recent inauguration tells the whole story, in my mind. Imagine Trump and his wife leaving the White House after the election and the Biden's are on their way in.And the Misses says "I'm not just done, I'm totally burned out, please can we have a break and just live our lives now, just you and I"? "Can you go and conquer something else for me for a while?" And Him saying something like...

Trump's Forcing Issues Out into The Open is Already Getting Results! Through his Executive orders, he has already obtained this/these Results: Executive Order(Generalized): Deport those with illegal entries, with Criminal Records. Result: Self Deportation or Gathering to Resist. Many rather than be deported with unknown results, have chosen to deport themselves to stay in control. Even many without criminal records, but existing on America's social services from the beginning, are taking what they have saved from this, to go back to where their gains will last the longest. Self-Deportations may be in the 10s of Millions. Gathering to Resist: MS-13...

Bye Joe, Don't let the Door on the People's House Catch You on the Way Out! We'll miss you... /Naught

Biden On New Orleans Attack: No One Should Jump To Conclusions

Democrats: Your Leadership and Press went Woke/Marxist. In case you haven't figured it out. Your top leadership went Woke/Marxist. We who were independent figured it out long ago. Others outside the party and it's press knew it too. Your press knew it too, but didn't want to talk about it. But it was obvious they went Woke/Marxist too. How did we know? Well, one big clue was the Burning/Looted/Rioted Democratic cities after COVID. Your leaders and press either stood aside or CHEERED THEM ON. They, by en large, let your cities be Burned, Looted, and/or Rioted. And the justification of...

Bad Mainstream Media Memes Memes are a bad thing for Journalists. It is to take up a storyline tact that will color all future articles. But what's worse is that they tend to Morph and take a journalist away from reality and objectivity. Take the Meme, Orangeman Bad. Built on the idea that Trump was a Racist because of his statements in Charlottesville Virginia. After Charlottesville, anything that Trump said or did would be flagged as bad and him to be vilified. However, the Meme soon Morphed: Orange man bad. Republicans Bad. Since Trump was a racist, so the Republicans...

Just Stating the Obvious: Kamala and the Democrats purpose is to Replace Citizens Votes with Illegal Ones to Gain Control over America. And once Achieved, to implement their "Democracy" under their control alone. If you haven't noticed or paid attention, "IE the Democrats Press", you've seen the massive invasion of the Border Hoppers in the last two years. Each year it is described as "unprecedented". I call it OVERWHELMING. And along with that Kamala and her Democratic elites have been demanding they be given the right to vote in our national elections immediately. In fact, this is happening in Arizona...

General Petraeus: "Will his (Sinwar’s) brother take over? Will he be able to establish control?”

Funny how the Democrats and their sick press depend on us forgetting what they did. How could we ever forget? Just after COVID, "Protesters", you know who they were. Went from one Democratic major city to another Burned, Looted and Pillaged while our vile Democratic Press cheered the Looters and Burners. So, let's start with Tim Walz's MINNEAPOLIS. As Governor of MINNESOTA since 2019. What did he do while Minneapolis burned?? Why NOTHING, he sat on his hands and Progressively saying those under him "did not provide the specifics necessary for deployment at the time". And in short order... "throughout...

Something stinks in the voting system and I won't give a dime to ANY POLITICAL PARTY till it doesn't stink. For the majority of people, our only participation in our government is our Vote. That's it, and when it seems like something or someone is playing with our votes, I TAKE NOTE. And when I'm told not to look at it, I GET REALLY MAD. And I am really angry. Can you tell? For years, the voting polls were projected. You went and voted and then watched the news about the projected polls. And, sometimes, even before the voting was...

In order for Global Warming/Global Cooling/Climate Change (or whatever they call it next) to become catastrophic, it must start overcoming Chlorophyll first. And, until scientists can prove that we are at that point, climate theories are just so much hogwash. Without Chlorophyll, all Oxygen breathing animal life on earth is impossible. Found in most plants, and some animals, Chlorophyll cells take in Carbon Dioxide and Sunlight and expel Oxygen. Animals (including humans like us) take in Oxygen into our lungs (gills in fish) and expel Carbon Dioxide. Chlorophyll cells LOVE Carbon Dioxide, increased warmth and cause plants and plankton to...

Sorry Republicans, I'm not Watching the GOP Debates.Ever since Donna Brazile, The infamous Democrat Activist from the Clinton Administration fed Hillary Clinton the debate questions in advance. I decided I'm not watching any more Debates 'Moderated by Progressive/Liberal Democratic press members anymore. And not one thin dime given to the Republicans until they stop it.These moderators spew Democratic talking points into the questions and keep the Republicans from talking about what we want to hear. From what I read about the 2nd Debate is that the Progressive Moderator did just that.If I want Democratic Talking points, I just have to...

Woke Equals Death. Have you noticed everything Woke touches dies or is dying. Whether states, corporations, marriages, children or even the whole countries; whatever Woke touches - it brings death. And notice that it doesn't build anything up, doesn't make society better or even to do what it promises. More than that, it blames its opponents for the things it does. Racism- it has anti-white racism written all over it. Bring Justice?-, no it brings cancelation of your job or your family. And it's definitely NOT PRO FAMILY.But it is pro illegal immigrants. It is pro thievery. It is pro-abortion...

Democrats, Biden will be as he was in 2020, but Trump will be as he was in 2016 and you should be worried. My prediction is, that as bad as he is in the polls, Democrats will circle the wagons around Biden and Kamala Harris. They and their sycophantic press will cancel any pretenders to the Throne in the White House. And being fully to the LGBTQ Left, the press and the Party will forgive their tack to the middle; to fool the country as they always do at election time. Trump, on the other hand will be faced with...
