EVERYTHING I SAY IS REAL – NO AI . . . NO PRETENSE – NO SKULLDUGGERY:
I Am Being Swamped With Hustles For Money – Especially From People I’ve Given To In The Past.
IN TWO DAYS . . . WE ARE GOING INTO 2026 . . .
The Years From 2020 To 2024 Were Dreadful – I Can’t Think Of A Better Way To Describe Them.
For Many People – 2025 Hasn’t Been The Best Year Either . . . Other Than, Because of President Donald Trump and the Republican Congress, America Began the Process of Returning from the LEFTIST Swamp . . . to Believe (I Really Hope Legitimate Belief) . . .That 2026 Will Be The Year Of Plenty.
I Don’t Hold Much Hope For Canada . . . But I Am Hoping America Will Carry Canada In Its Wake.
I Don’t Think Anti-Semitism Is Going To Ebb . . . I Think Jew-Hatred is Going to Become More Mainstream, More Aggressive, and to be Used as a Political Cudgel, Especially By The LEFT & By The Resurging Far-Right.
Israel Will Be No Safer Nor Better Received Internationally In 2026, Until Moderate European Countries, and Countries Like Canada & Australia Choose Conservative Governments, which will Acknowledge the Threat of Anti-Semitism, the Political Menace of Radical Islam, and the Continuing Loss of Basic Human Rights & Freedoms.
THE ENTIRE WORLD IS ON A LEFT/RIGHT/ISLAMIC COLLISION COURSE:
China, North Korea, Iran & Russia Are Not About To Willingly Change Their Stripes.
LATELY . . . WE’VE STOPPED MOST OF OUR CHARITABLE-GIVING:
Even Though Anne & I Aren’t “Flush”, We Do the Best We Can, to Donate Money Where We think it will Genuinely Do the Best . . . Whether it be a Charity Like Tunnel For Towers, Animal Causes, Worthwhile Media, and Conservative Political Parties which We Believe Can Make a Conservative Difference. But with the Exception of a Few Charities like T2T & Some of the Animal Shelters we Support – Most Of The Rest Has Turned-Me Off.
Except to those Groups that Truly Do What they say they are Going to Do with the Money they Receive, We are Not Interested in Being Hustled – By People & Groups Who Use Skullduggery To Hustle From The Givers.
I Get Plenty Of Phone Calls From Political Parties I Support, Just About Always Beginning with the Salutation of . . . Hi – Howard . . . as if the Caller is my Friend, which then Continues with . . . I Trust You Are Doing Well? Or Are You Having A Nice Day? . . . And then the Script Begins with their Gratitude to my Past Generosity to their Party or Group, Asking For More Money.
I AM NOT INTERESTED IN BEING HUSTLED BY ANYONE FOR ANYTHING!
And When I Tell Whoever Is On The Other End Of The Phone . . . I Will Make a Further Donation at an Appropriate Time of My Choosing . . . Which is When the Rhetoric & Passive/Aggressive Guilt by the Money Hustler on the Phone Begins to Pick-Up the Pace, Which At That Point, is When I Tell the Caller to Stop Speaking, And To Put Me On Their Do Not Call List . . . Seconds Before I Hang-Up.
THE SCAMMERS ARE RIDING THE STEEDS OF AI:
I Am Writing This . . . Because It Bothers Me More Than Just Somewhat, When Anyone Tries to Take Advantage of my Generosity – Whether it is for Money or for a Vote, by Making it Seem as if we are Somehow Buddies, Which Somewhat Obligates Me To Accept Whatever The Hustler Is Pitching.
With AI . . . The Hustle Has Gone From Chronic To Acute, Much of the Time on Behalf of People or Groups I Never Would Have Expected-It From, Leaving Me Very Disappointed in the People at the Head of the Groups or Associations, Which The Hustlers Are Hustling For On The Phone, Through Email, And Even Occasionally By Text.
LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR . . . 100% CLEAR – WITHOUT A DOUBT!
My Editorial Title Says It All – When I am Not Reading, Listening or Watching News, I Am Listening To Great Music From The 50’s, 60’s & The Blues, Which Aren’t AI Generated.
They are Not Phony Sounds & Spectacles Created on a Backdrop of Naked Women, Near Pornographic Dancing, Dazzling Lights & Computer-Generated Music & Sounds. I am Listening, and very Often Watching the 50’s & 60’s Performers on YouTube when Songs, Dance & General Entertainment were the Real Thing.
I am Not Hearing Vulgar, Hateful & Violent Lyrics When I Listen to Music from the 50’s, 60’s & The Blues. And In Addition – From Time To Time, I Indulge Myself with some Good Country Music that is Always Uplifting in One Way or Another.
The Preceding Is My Reprieve From The Lunacy Of Today’s Media & Insanity Of AI.
IN 2026 – I AM PRAYING FOR TRUMP. . . AND I AM PRAYING FOR NETANYAHU:
I’m Praying The LEFT Will Meet Their Waterloo In November 2026 . . . But I Worry Otherwise.
I Worry That Academia, the Media, the Billions of Dollars Invested in America from Countries like Qatar & Billionaires like George Soros, Are Used To Poison The American Well . . . Whether at the University Level, or by Political Mega-Donors (Lobbyists) who Buy & Peddle Influence in America, In Order To Set Local, State & National Policies.
THE FOLLOWING IS NOT JUST HAPPENSTANCE . . . IT IS A MESSAGE:
The Election Of An Anti-Semitic Communist To Become The Mayor Of New York City, the Election of a Socialist Unqualified Mayor of Miami, the Election Victories of Two Democrat Governors (Virginia & New Jersey Respectively) who Won Against Far Better Republican Candidates than Themselves . . . Were (Are) Not Outliers.
The LEFTIST Election Decisions Delivered A Strong & Clear National Message.
I WILL NOT WRITE AGAIN UNTIL THE NEW YEAR:
I Will Not Make A New Year’s Resolution – Except For Two . . .
I Resolve to Live my Life in the Best Way I Always Aspire to Live. And I Pledge to Continue Writing, Speaking & Advocating as Best I Can for as Long as I Can.
MY WISH FOR 2026 – BE BETTER BY FAR THAN THE 5-YEARS PREVIOUS:
I Wish The People Who Read Galganov.com – The Very Best Of 2026. May Your Hopes Come True.
Best Regards . . . Howard Galganov

I agree with you Howard about the influence of A. I. In the media and more so in the financial, political and electronic media. I am just a retired farmer who has served on a few provincial boards, municiple council & have a little computer experience. I think the key wording is served, not ruled as too many people allow being elected to go to their head. I truly appreciate your outlook. Special Blessings to you & Anne in the coming year! Interesting that Hanukkah & Christmas coincide this yr!
Happy new year Howard and Anne!
we all need to cheer for ourselves and our beliefs. Believe in how you feel and stand up, don’t be scared to show your beliefs and feelings
Best wishes and Happy New Year to all Galganov readers. If you like reading the TRUTH as Howard brings it to us make a New Year Resolution to send him a donation from time to time for all his good work. For 2026 I would be very happy if we, in Canada, can dump the Globalist Carney before he totally destroys this country. We will live to regret AI that like the Internet has a dark side that will do much harm.
i am surprised u waste your precious time answering all the assholes who call. as a retired physician who is blessed with some affluence i only answer calls from numbers i recognize and t he rest can kiss my 90 years old aging ass. i wish u and anne health happiness and good fortune in the new year filled with every “shabbat shalom “
I appreciated your comments about the good “music” of yesteryear. I host a radio program on Fridays from 1::00 to 3:00 called ” Bring back the Memories.” It’s heard on 96-7 FM in Sudbury at CKLU–LU being Laurentian University. Also played on the internet. I’m heading into year 12. I play vinyl–the gentle ballads & big band material. I’m nearly 90, so you can appreciate why I play the music of my youth. Dave Innes
Howard, we agree on much. I’m (at 75) also still listening to 50’s-60’s and 70’s music, own dogs, but we diverge on motorcycles as I am still riding! Anyway Happy New Year to you and Anne and your dogs!
Governor of Georgia is a republican and strong supporter of israel
You have the same view I do. Quality over garbage. The music of the 50/60/and some of the 70s was the golden era of r&r. Same for country with the exception of a couple of artists (George Strait/Alan Jackson, etc. of that vein). The rest is nothing but noise. We should be on our knees every day praying for Trump, Bibi, the USA, Israel, and those rare quality leaders who are standing in the way of the 1 world government, communism, and islam. II Chron. 7:14 Shana Tova.
Re: the newly elected Governors, I think you meant to say Virginia rather than Georgia. Happy & successful New Year to you & Anne . . . as well to all of your readers.
My band, of the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s. Played the music you like, may it live forever. We were very popular In military clubs. Happy New Year to you and Yours and keep up the great work.
I’m older than you, so starting with the 40’s thru 60’s, Country in the 60’s and 70’s, and musicals, especially the musicals! Ken D., agree with your thoughts on assisting and A.I. Happy New Year wishes to you, Mr. G., and Anne, and to all who follow you here.
Totally agree with you about the phone calls and mail asking for money. You and Anne have a great and happy new year. Robert Deere, Evansville, IN USA
Those are phone solicitors. They are paid minimum wages. They make commission when you agree to donate. So, how much goes to the charity? Very little. If you answer such a call by mistake, push the red off button immediately! Don’t waste your time listening to the pitch. Happy New Year to one and all.
