I’m sick of listening to Leftists lazily and endlessly repeat the phrases, labels and talking points they heard on the morning main street media news. I have neighbors around me who say truly stupid things like (and I’m paraphrasing closely from an actual, recent conversation) “I don’t subscribe to all the racism charges leveled at Dr. Seuss, but there are a couple of books that could be considered racist.” Yeah, right. “If I Ran the Zoo” is racist? Not then, not now…it’s absolutely ridiculous!
I get very angry when confronted by Leftist imbeciles denigrating all the things I value and hold dear and in the heat of the moment, it takes all my energy to keep from lashing out. Besides, with all the adrenalin coursing through me during one of these exchanges my usual glibness fails me. So I remain silent or neutral because I actually CARE about what I say. Afterwards, I often think of things I wished I had said.
Instead of having a ready supply of pejoratives to hurl at these cancer-carrying fools, I’ve come up with a number of questions that are only a little less confrontational. (Maxine Waters, I’m just following your admonition!) To wit:
Why would you want to be a member of the REAL racist party? It’s not the Republicans who practiced slavery in the South, enacted the Jim Crow laws, promoted eugenics, segregation and formed the Ku Klux Klan of which their leader Robert Byrd was most recently a member. It wasn’t Republicans in California who expanded mass incarcerations, which predominantly affected blacks, it was none other than Kamala Harris. On the other hand, it was the Republicans who freed the slaves, who supported the 1964 Civil Rights Act in greater proportions than the Democrats under the four years of the Trump administration, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians…all were lifted economically. Why would you want to be associated with and celebrate as your leaders race baiters like Maxine Waters, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, Ilahn Omar, etc.?
Why would you want to support leaders who don’t care about YOU or minorities or anyone or anything else but POWER. This is plainly exhibited in their push on HR1 which would be defacto the ultimate vote-stealing initiative. More importantly, HR1 is the epitome of racism – it plainly exposes the attitude of Democrats that poor people and minorities are too stupid or incompetent to get id’s when id’s are required to do just about anything today? Read the Bill!
Why would you want to be a member of a political party that can’t tell the difference between boys and girls, men and women? Who want to redefine human nature because they think it will benefit them politically? Why would you support people who are in favor of sex change operations for children and who want you to introduce yourself and ridiculously add “and my pronouns are…”?
Why would you want to be a Democrat when the Democrats preach “progressivism” but behave in virtually every way like true totalitarian fascists, doing everything and anything: cheating, stealing, lying, deceiving, bullying, cancelling, ignoring any truth or reality that contradicts their agenda, who think we must wear masks that REAL science shows are ineffective, not get together in churches and on July 4th with our families while you go into the grocery store or COSTCO all the time? Who want to confiscate not just your earnings but your wealth as well in order to doll it out to people whose political support and votes they believe they can curry?
Why do you insist on listening to, believing and parroting “narratives” crafted from focus groups and lazily repeated over and over as talking points by an admittedly dishonest Leftist media looking only for viewership and ad dollars while avoiding and suppressing the truth? Example? The Russian Collusion nonsense. The bases for both the first AND second impeachment efforts. The narrative that we should take two weeks to “bend the curve”. Most recently the editing out by NBC of the fact that the 16 year old girl in Ohio was about to stab another girl and repeatedly ignored the police officer who demanded she stop. Oh, and edited the 911 tape to remove the part where the caller screams the girl “is trying to stab us!”
Why would you want to support a Party that stupidly promotes defunding, “re-imagining” or eliminating the Police? Can you think of a more idiotic position to take? Yet, that’s what the Democrats are pushing.
Why would you want to be a member of a Party that wants no national borders so anyone at any time can just waltz across and receive tax supported handouts?
Why would you want to support Democrat sponsored environmental programs and legislation that won’t do a damn thing for “saving the planet” but will line the pockets of Green people and Green businesses but all the while allow the biggest polluters on the planet, the Chinese, to continue to pollute at will and impose draconian restrictions on America while turning a blind eye to those on, say, Europe. Oh, and who forget 6th grade science class where we learned that CO2 is not a pollutant but what plants use in photosynthesis to live and grow, and RENEW the breathable air on the planet! Do you really fall for the tripe that “CARBON is evil?” Guess what, carbon is what we’re made of!
Or maybe you subscribe to the “Can’t We All Get Along” utopian fantasy where everyone is granted a basic income, which of course is nothing more than a redistribution of wealth from the productive to the unproductive. Or where all nations are dissolved into a New World Order under a Great Reset ruled by a bunch of elitist, holier-than-though, self-proclaimed and condescending experts who will tell you, as they did in the European Parliament, what society as a whole can and can’t do. Some examples:
Limitation on balloon usage. According to EU rules from 1988 children under the age of 8 can not use latex balloons without a supervising parent. And text on the latex balloons must have such a warning on them.
Whistle blowers, that scroll out into a long colored paper tongue when sounded have now been classified as unsafe for all children under 14.
Eurocrats ban small fruit. “The diameter of the fruit is a way of measuring its maturity/development. Fruit grown organically or conventionally have to reach a certain degree of maturity in order to have a reasonable chance of satisfying the consumer.” – who is the EU to tell Europeans what satisfies them? Is it any wonder the relatively sane Brits said enough and seceded from the EU?
It’s this same kind of stupidity and tyranny that permeates every piece of Democrat legislation.
Why would you want to vote for an administration that will relax the sanctions on the world’s greatest sponsor of terrorism, Iran, and allow them to with impunity move forward rapidly on their nuclear weapons program?
Why is it that you Democrats squeal that no one should have guns, when you know damn well that when seconds matter, the police are only minutes away. Or that if all the 400 million plus guns in the U.S. were eliminated on Monday, there would be hundreds, perhaps thousands of guns circulating by Friday, and they’d be in the hands of criminals who, knowing you are unarmed and only defended by social workers (.sic), wouldn’t think twice of breaking and entering your home, place of work, or place of worship to rob or hurt you?
And why would you vote for and want a sadly demented, corrupt man who never had a real job in his life, who is nothing but a marionette whose strings are being manipulated by imbeciles and woke, lying, anti-american idiots like AOC, and professional political megalomaniacs like Pelosi and Schumer, and the worst kind of behind the scenes operatives like Susan Rice and now Obama, to be the President of the greatest nation the world has ever known?
Shall I continue? I could go all day pointing out the stupidity of what the Biden and Leftist Cabal are trying to do to “fundamentally transform” America. Into what? Into a sniveling bunch of recycled, quiche eating, limp-wristed, merlot drinking 60’s hippies staring at their iPhones while sitting around a campfire with terrorists trying to strike up a rendition of Kumbaya?
Or maybe you’ve been brainwashed to believe that we ARE a nation of racists, of colonialists, of exploiters of the earth, of knuckle-draggers bent on killing off minorities and gentle people?
All politics is abhorrent to me, and both the Left AND the Right say and do despicable things, but the vast preponderance, I repeat, the VAST preponderance of shenanigans, deception, falsehoods, hypocrisy, rules-for-thee-but-not-me attitudes, power-addiction, anti everything that made this nation great behavior and rhetoric is exhibited by Democrats. It’s not even close.
I’m very sorry for you. You have to be either asleep, willfully ignorant, too adolescent and subject to peer pressure and emotional blackmail, too dependent on their handouts, too brainwashed, or just plain stupid, to be a Democrat.
When I was growing up I was taught to “respect my elders”, meaning anyone who was a grown-up. Respect meant that irrespective of who they were it was “yes sir, no sir, yes ma’am, no ma’am” and behaving in a way that went along with the old adage, “children are to be seen not heard.” Included among grown-ups, especially, were policemen, firemen, soldiers. Today, from Hollywood, the media, celebrities, politicians, even teachers and pastors, kids are being taught to disrespect their elders and authorities. Perhaps worse, children are being taught to denigrate, criticize and belittle anyone, including their peers, who do not conform with the Leftist orthodoxy in speech and deed. Is there any wonder the country is so polarized?
Manners? Forget manners. They went out in the 60’s. Proper diction, grammar, basic getting the right answer in arithmetic…gone or being challenged by Leftist ideology. Meritocracy? “What’s that mean?” The fundamental differences between boys and girls, men and women? Blurred or in the process of being eradicated. Sovereign nations? A trite, old-fashioned concept. Borders? Naw…let ’em in.
Personal responsibility? Nope…the “Collective” means there is no such thing as an “individual” anymore. If you succeed, “everyone” succeeds. If you fail, “it’s the fault of society.
If you’ve either made money and accumulated wealth by the sweat of your brow or by creating a wildly popular “app” (today’s Pet Rock or Hula Hoop)… “you didn’t build that” (to quote Obama) – the GOVERNMENT made that possible.
With despicable race-baiters like Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, the “Squad”, Maxine Waters and countless others doing everything they can to divide the country (all the while accusing the Right of doing so, of course) no wonder there’s racism around every corner!
So when disrespectful, in-your-face animals pour water on the heads of police officers, threaten them, spit on them, shove them, curse at them – KILL them(!), from where did this behavior emanate?
White Supremacists? Old, Angry White Men? The Privileged?
No, it needs to be pointed out, but rarely is, that the reason there are more shootings in poor neighborhoods, often but not always black neighborhoods, is that’s where the crime is occurring! It is there that the greatest disrespect for law, order, traditional values and thus authority, exists!
The media makes martyrs of victims of police shootings but they rarely if ever point out WHY the incidents occur! It’s not because of racism damn it! Police forces are among the most integrated of all government agencies! Frequently, the police officers involved are of the same race as the victim.
No, it’s because 9 times out of 10 the perpetrators are criminals already! At this very moment the Left is being fueled by the shooting of a teenager wielding a knife actively trying to stab another teenager! The policeman tried to break up the fight repeatedly, and the knife-wielder ignored him and assaulted the other young person anyway. Bystanders shouted invectives as the police while all this was occurring. Disrespect of authority? That’s an understatement. Had the knife-wielding girl simply obeyed the officer, she would not have been shot and would be alive today. The policeman’s action may have saved the life of the girl about to be stabbed! But no, the cop is being called a racist and the perpetrator of the crime being heralded, once again, as a martyr.
” It wasn’t the perpetrator’s fault. It was Society, ” and systemic racism and white privilege and rogue policing and rogue cops that are at fault. Just listen to the puppet president stating boldly that America is systemically racist! What a bald-faced, demagogic LIE spoken to curry favor with the woke crowd!
Jim Crow laws were enacted by DEMOCRATS, i.e. THE LEFT! The KKK was founded by DEMOCRATS! It is the Democrats who are racist! If you want a detailed and accurate description of all the evil they represent and are trying to foist on our country and people, one has only to listen to what they say. Whatever they accuse the Right of is precisely what they exhibit themselves. The hypocrisy is beyond breathtaking. It’s infuriating!
The lack of respect for traditional values, the absolution being granted by the Left for any personal responsibility for one’s actions, disregard for the individual and celebration of the “collective”…these are precisely what bring great nations and even civilizations down to destruction.
And it’s happening right before our eyes, right here in River City!
I can’t change the attitudes of several generations of brainwashed Leftists in the inner cities – that’s the job and challenge for reformed, converted-from-darkness-to-light inhabitants and refugees of such places. But I CAN speak out against my own neighbors, school district administrators, power-addicted and woke politicians where a smidgen of reason and critical thinking ability still occupies a tiny part of their addled brains.
The first article introduced the concept of forming a nation within our nation comprised roughly of all the counties that voted red in the last election. Here’s the map from brilliantmaps.com reproduced in the article:
As we know, geographically Red dwarfs Blue and there are even pockets of red in all the Blue states with the exception of Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Vermont! The author suggests that just as many Americans hold dual citizenship today, those of us aligned with the Red should pledge allegiance to BOTH the United States as well as the new nation called, simply, the “Free People of America.” The fundamental creed of the FPA is embodied in a pledge, which is: “I pledge to live free and responsibly, and to respect the freedom of my fellow citizens.”
The author then goes on to explain what each component of the pledge signifies, and how such a nation would grow and eventually displace the federal and state system which will inevitably decline. It is a novel and enticing proposition and a worthy and serious alternative to the discussion of red-state secession.
The second article focuses on the simmering, some might say boiling cry for the formation of militias. The author’s thesis in this article can be summed up, “Not now.” Rather, he suggests, “At just the right time, in 3,000+ counties across America many groups will coalesce, independent of the government, the military, and law enforcement.” Cutting across all generational, race, socio-economic and gender boundaries, at the tipping point where the U.S. descends into socialist, communist, or some other ‘ist’ tyrrany, imagine, he suggests, thousands of groups (not militias per se but communities of fed up citizens coalescing around the basic principles of liberty and freedom), at the right time, all coming together spontaneously to resist collectivist rule and economic slavery. Thought-provoking stuff!
Finally, the third article suggests what we can and should be doing now to ready ourselves for that time, in the future, when the tipping point is reached. Put simply, it is NETWORKING. I have a neighbor who is a veteran, trainer of state police SWAT teams, well-known critic of Leftist drivel, who has lived in our Blue town virtually all his life. Even today, he points out, there are far more Red residents in our town than would be expected given the number of virtue-signaling lawn signs displayed. And far more voters who are now embarrassed by their vote for Biden-Harris than one could imagine as well! We will seek to recruit them, quietly, to our network.
I’ve taken the last article to heart and yesterday sent out an invitation to a number of friends whom I know to be 2nd Amendment supporters to come out to an informal get together of “like-minded” individuals, and to bring a friend. A purely social event: Pot luck, BYOB, masks optional, a day later I’ve already received acceptances from a half dozen participants, and I really look forward to getting everyone together to create an informal network of friends and neighbors on whom we might call in the event of something nasty going down!
I urge my readers spread out across the country to think about doing the same in your own communities. It’s not in our nature (conservatives/traditionalists) to coalesce. We are, after all, fiercely individualistic rather than collectivist. But the only way we can prevail against this encroaching leftist cancer now and in the future is by setting up communication links and attaching faces to voices and names, looking one another in the eye and acknowledging that we’re in this fight together. That we can’t go it alone. That for the benefit of our families, friends, communities and citizens, we’ve got to leave our comfort zones and reach out to one another.
May we take steps to associate, socialize, commiserate, and join together, even informally, in opposition to the darkness that threatens to overtake our great land!
The following article is printed with permission from The Toll Online, a site I came across this morning. Doug Lynn, or “Uncola” (his pen name), is as thoughtful and insightful as I’ve read. He clearly falls into the category of those who “can say it better than I ever could.” It is not a highly religious discussion as one might anticipate from the first few paragraphs. Read the whole essay…it’s most definitely worth the time and effort.
During an afternoon escape from high school in a Ronald Reagan world, I opened a Bible that was sitting on an end table in a doctor’s office. The physician was a specialist located an hour away from my hometown and was to advise on a Septoplasty procedure for my deviated septum. It was nothing serious –merely the result of mishaps which occurred, primarily, in martial arts and wrestling.
While paging through the Bible, I flipped to the back because I was an impatient soul back then. It wasn’t the first time I had scanned the pages of Revelation, nor would it be the last, but on that day I was simply waiting. The third verse of the first chapter said: “Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand”.
The following words then formed a kaleidoscope, of sorts, in my mind whereupon visions appeared through the mist and shadow of time: There was an ancient apostle dreaming on an island about congregations future and past; of symbolic animals, beasts and reptiles; angels, priests, and kings… good and evil, all amidst smoke scrolling up toward heaven as plagues and earthquakes ravaged the lands below in diverse places.
The thirteenth chapter was quite interesting in that it described a blasphemous beast rising from the sea and a dragon that gave power to the beast over “all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.” Another beast was said to have risen from the earth and caused all of the accursed to worship the image of the first beast which had suffered a devastating wound and lived. Those who did not worship the beast’s image were appointed to die; while others, upon their own volition, would receive a mark on their right hand or forehead so they could “buy or sell”. The mark might be the name of the beast, or the number of his name… of which those who possessed “wisdom” would identify as 666.
Strangely enough, the descriptions in the Bible’s Book of Revelation also appeared to correspond with the Apostle Paul’s “son of perdition” (KJV), or “man of lawlessness” (NIV), in 2 Thessalonians 2:
Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition…
-2 Thessalonians 2:3
…. whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
-2 Thessalonians 2:9–11
As a high school student, four decades ago, I wondered if the earth’s entire population could be deceived and controlled to the point of being branded like cattle in order to buy and sell. I seriously questioned if the metaphysical mysteries of prophecy could manifest in modernity and, if the visions did come to pass, how a “falling away” would occur that would take humanity from here to there.
Of course, back then, there were just four channels on TV and my only computing device was a Texas Instruments calculator. So the idea of future kings handing over the world to a wicked and all-powerful dictator seemed far-fetched. Cynically, at the time, I even made immature mental comparisons to Marvin the Martian’s attempts to blow up the earth.
Admittedly, however, there were totalitarians throughout history who reveled in their sick lust for power. Yet, I believed, there was no way they could control entire populations dispersed across the globe, let alone in the United States; especially with patriotic American presidents like Ronnie Raygun at the helm and in possession of the nuclear launch codes.
Even so, throughout my adult life, I still retained a sense of doom. Why? It’s hard to say. After all, I survived childhood in the sixties and the seventies; growing up on Skynyrd, Zeppelin, Zappa, and Petty; amidst 22’s, 12 gauges, and custom mini-bike races with no helmets; jungle gym’s over asphalt and lawn dart wars in the black of night; early skateboards and shooting bats in moonlight; stolen Playboys and cigarettes and fist-fights by fire-light.
Yet the pervading pessimism remained as the streets were filled with yuppies in their BMWs during Reagan’s “Morning in America” and while Springsteen sang “Born in the U.S.A.” Even then, I had the sense we were living on borrowed time. Perhaps I was predisposed to such thinking after viewing movies like “Bladerunner” and “Terminator”, or by reading Tolkien’s’ “Lord of the Rings” trilogy along with my steady diet of science fiction and dystopian literature.
Even with the advent of cable television in my hometown, I recall flipping through the channels and seeing a TV preacher passionately exclaim: “If cables can deliver video into your home, they can send it out too!”
But that was only the beginning.
Next came personal computers, the internet, cellular phones, wireless technology, and smart devices that kept getting smarter and smarter; all accompanied by The War on Terror®, killer drones, and panoptic digital surveillance.
How far we fell, indeed, and the year 2020 was a veritable occult rite of passage into The New Normal®. A global initiation ritual was performed and a spell was cast upon the earth. Now, most of America, and the world, live under the hex of a hallucinogenic fever dream.
Welcome to the new reality where global health institutions, including the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO), are funded by billionaires and politicized by communists planning to purge entire populations; as nation-states around the globe have surrendered to medical tyranny with cult-like obedience. Even worse, in the new age, strange beings with peculiar voices and odd mannerisms warn, chastise, and cajole through electronic screens; and, paradoxically, one even resembles Marvin the Martian.
How we arrived in our current circumstances is certainly debatable… but there is no denying the future is here.
Just days ago, as of this writing, a musical pop star sold 666 pairs of “Satan Shoes” for $1,000 each. The shoes included a pentagram on the laces, 666 on the back, a Bible verse on the sidewall (Luke 10:18 – referencing Satan’s banishment from heaven), and a drop of human blood “somewhere along the soles”. The 666 pairs of $1,000 satanic sneakers sold out in less than a minute.
Additionally, a compromised pervert and his snickering side-kick now lead America’s Executive Branch while corrupt clowns control the U.S. House and Senate. Our politicians are pay-for-play puppets installed by grift and fraud in a lawless nation.
President Trump’s former White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows, recently summarized the new reality in a Tweet:
In Joe Biden’s world: you don’t need an ID to vote, you don’t need any kind of ID to cross our border… but you might need a government “vaccine passport” to resume your normal life.
So how did we pass into The New Normal®? Certainly, there were many reasons: We saved a few bucks at Amazon.com while local businesses withered on the vine. Millions worked hard to pay universities that turned the nation’s young adults into leftist loons while others let their sons and daughters finance their destructive indoctrination over a period of decades. We allowed politicians to subsidize the welfare state with our tax dollars. We valued fake food more than health; sportsball, paper money and McMansions more than our future; and entertainment above civic responsibility. Then we stood stupefied as our institutions collapsed around us.
America could be likened to a hardened macroaggregate that was first softened, then liquefied, collapsed into a vortex, and drawn down the proverbial drain; with echoes of laughter and wailing over Trump’s tweets and Ross Perot’s giant sucking sound ringing in our ears.
“Solve et coagula” said the central planners, as the criminals chuckled back stage and the loons raged; all drunk on the will to power, they sought death and destruction.
Regrettably, there is no way to escape the madness now. It is too late, partially because propaganda thoroughly permeates the airwaves of the new reality; and in a manner that would surely cause Huxley and Orwellto writhe in their graves.
As a young man, I could have never imagined a world where a media-hyped virus would serve as the gift that kept on giving to totalitarians actively consolidating their power. But here we are.
At the end of last month, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky warned of “impending doom”following another “rise in COVID cases”. This is, in fact, the strategy underlying the Covid deception: The pressure is applied, then released, then applied again.
We’re about to enter into a real Walking Dead scenario and the Dark Powers will be getting years of mileage out of COVID-19 in every aspect of post-American life.
Truly, the new age will be delivered by concentrically tightening circles of control – like a noose. The Powers That Be have successfully divided and dispersed what they have deemed a threat: the American people. All that remains now is the conquering, and it will come in waves, or seasonal cycles…
Undoubtedly, the deception is meant to be continuous as the information war is waged.
Consider how honest skeptics have questioned why Florida’s measured response to the “pandemic” resulted in death rates which were statistically similar, and even superior, to other states such as New York and Michigan – both of which were locked down in Orwellian fashion. Having no factual response, the propagandists, instead, uniformly post articles which simultaneously show on “smart” devices around the globe:
Conservatives have celebrated [Governor Ron] DeSantis for his handling of the pandemic, which has killed more than 30,000 residents of the state. Critics of the combative governor, meanwhile, say that many of those deaths would have been prevented if he had listened more diligently to health experts. DeSantis resisted lockdowns, downplayed masks and has made it increasingly difficult for localities to institute public health measures of their own.
And the state could be on the cusp of a new coronavirus surge…
Did you catch that? A “combative (conservative) governor ignoring the “health experts” paired to the warning of another surge. Always another surge:
…according to Dr. Calvin Sun, an NYC-based emergency medicine physician, there are three main factors driving this recent uptick: the virus mutating, the rolling back of safety measures, and the recent increase in travel.
… The CDC still recommends not traveling, both domestically and internationally.
… No one is forcing you to quarantine. That is based on your ethical guidelines and what you feel is right or wrong but when something bad happens, that’s on you when you infect other people.
… Don’t wear your mask underneath your nose. That’s not wearing correctly and of course you’re going to have consequences when you don’t do things correctly, half heartedly.
…. Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)…. highlighted a bright spot on Tuesday, telling MSNBC: “Our data from the CDC today suggest that vaccinated people do not carry the virus.”
Isn’t that interesting? Amidst all of the manipulative emotional blackmail… the director of the CDC told MSNBC “that vaccinated people do not carry the virus.”
Certainly, in The New Normal®, the truth has become irrelevant; especially as digital tsunamis of Orwellian “suggestions” flood billions of internet devices throughout the world. The messages arrive as subtle warnings and outright decrees; seemingly whispered by the devil himself:
At the same time, whistleblowers and honest skeptics such as America’s Frontline Doctors, Dr. Sherri Tenpenny, Dr. Judy Mikovits, and others, have revealed the successful conventional treatments for Covid-19 while warning against the experimental, and even potentially harmful, Covid vaccines. Yet, all of these respected physicians have been summarily slandered and censored by the “more equal” Health Authoritarians of the New Reality.
That is, in part, how we arrived to this particular “future”: Through the propagandizing of deception as contravening information was maligned and censored. And the tech gods had only to provide the slightest of nudges to a majority of Americans. This allowed the “sheep” to contentedly sip their Starbucks and wear their respective normalcy bias like wool blankets.
For those who may not know, the “Event 201”plandemic exercise was held in New York City in October 2019 – just weeks before the first Covid-19 deaths were reported in China. The event was sponsored by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, John Hopkins University, and the World Economic Forum (WEF).
Since that time, Bill Gates, the founder of a software conglomerate, has been on the news every week promoting various healthcare initiatives. Gates first urged more Covid testing before quickly transitioning into a moderately successful Global Vaccination Passport Salesman. John Hopkins University posted all of the Orwellian Covid Mapsthat terrified the internet over the last year, and the founder of the WEF, Klaus Schwab, is actually the architect behind the communistic Great Reset®.
Most recently, Schwab has organized efforts toward a “global pandemic treaty” with multiple world leaders in order “to prevent future pandemics, distribute vaccinations, and implement a unilateral approach to global governance”.
In a joint letter, this international consortium of globalists declared the following:
Together, we must be better prepared to predict, prevent, detect, assess and effectively respond to pandemics in a highly co-ordinated fashion. The Covid-19 pandemic has been a stark and painful reminder that nobody is safe until everyone is safe.
Klaus Schwab further clarified the group’s statement with a clarified declaration of his own:
As long as not everybody is vaccinated, nobody will be safe.
Klaus Schwab
Self-Declared Defender of Humanity
I believe I would trust Marvin the Martian, an actual cartoon, more than the risible comic book clowns vying for world domination today. At least Marvin the Martian stated his true intentions and was not attempting to blow up the earth under the pretense of saving it.
But, seriously, it seems only the wrong side knows exactly what it wants in the grand zeitgeist of our time. And, unfortunately, the elite billionaires are better organized with superior communications, surveillance, and strategy. Furthermore, considering the warfare has been informational so far, they have air superiority, so to speak, given their centralized control over media and technology.
It has now become obvious that Conservative America was preemptively decapitated by a billionaire reality TV star with orange hair and social media flair, as the Health Authoritarians were busy weaponizing the flu toward the goal of establishing a global medical dictatorship. And the end result has been Conservative America being deceived into shuttering their businesses and churches while wearing face coverings and standing 6-feet apart in the public square; ultimately, even tricked into accepting government-issued stimulus cash while staying self-sequestered in their homes.
In the commentary of my last article, a commenter posted the following quote by Winston Churchill:
If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
To be sure, this outright call-to-action makes a strong argument for choosing one’s battles (and hills upon which to die) earlier as opposed to when it’s too late.
As for me and my tribe: We will seek to live our lives unimpeded. We will select our battles carefully. We will practice non-violence while defending ourselves, with vigor, when necessary. To shield our minds, and for the same reasons we refuse to inhale toxic air or drink poison, we will ignore the news and neglect the mandates of the Health Authoritarians. And when the propaganda cannot be avoided, we will fully understand the agenda behind the headlines and the arbitrary and unjust mandates.
Even so, we may still lose the war. In fact, it could be we have already lost. But even the aforementioned Book of Revelation’s chapter 13 states in verse 10…. that they who go into captivity, will go, and they that who will be killed, will be killed – and with the corresponding call for the patience and faith of the saints.
Undeniably, history has been kind to the legacies of courageous people who have stood for what they believe. They did so with the hope and faith of knowing history would right itself in time: Even into captivity; even unto death.
Many, if not most, Americans consider twentieth-century civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. as an American hero. And even though others may claim he was a philandering communist agitator, the words King penned in an April 1963 letter from a jail in Birmingham, Alabama may be pertinent to our time. The missive was a plea to King’s fellow clergyman, as well as to those who had professed to support the cause of civil rights yet lacked the full measure of commitment which was required to win.
In what has become known as the “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”, the admonishing tones in King’s appeals are, in my opinion, quite similar with the Apostle Paul’s petitions to the early churches of The New Testament. Perhaps this is not surprising, however, given the fact King actually referenced Paul of Tarsus in the letter.
Here are some excerpts which may have relevance to our current circumstances:
We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.
…..We had no alternative except to prepare for direct action, whereby we would present our very bodies as a means of laying our case before the conscience of the local and the national community.
….Lamentably, it is an historical fact that privileged groups seldom give up their privileges voluntarily…
….We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.
….The answer lies in the fact that there are two types of laws: just and unjust. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that “an unjust law is no law at all.”
… How does one determine whether a law is just or unjust? A just law is a man made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law. Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust. All segregation statutes are unjust because segregation distorts the soul and damages the personality. It gives the segregator a false sense of superiority and the segregated a false sense of inferiority.
…consider a more concrete example of just and unjust laws. An unjust law is a code that a numerical or power majority group compels a minority group to obey but does not make binding on itself. This is difference made legal. By the same token, a just law is a code that a majority compels a minority to follow and that it is willing to follow itself.
….time itself is neutral; it can be used either destructively or constructively. More and more I feel that the people of ill will have used time much more effectively than have the people of good will. We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people. Human progress never rolls in on wheels of inevitability; it comes through the tireless efforts of men willing to be coworkers with God, and without this hard work, time itself becomes an ally of the forces of social stagnation.
I have learned many lessons in my journey from past to future, including these facts: The desire to control others is, ultimately, rooted in fear. Accordingly, fear is utilized as the means to control others.
The proper response to these precepts, therefore, is to… fear not.
As some readers may know, I started my blog in the fall of 2016 as a middle-finger flip to the (seemingly then certain) eventuality of President Hillary and her criminal cabal. I did so after being inspired by the courage of the writers throughout the still-unregulated internet. Although I was initially optimistic regarding Trump, I wrote just nine days after his 2016 election victory that either “constitutionalism, liberty and renewed nationalist vigor” would prevail in our future… or that a new order could arise like a phoenix – but no matter what happened, either way, there would be “no middle ground” between liberty or tyranny.
Since then, over a period of years, I honestly analyzed President Donald Trump as a reality TV show, and two-sides of the same coin, as well as writing article after article speculating on the MAGA movement as the nation’s “bleeding of the brake lines before the big stop”.
But even before Trump was elected, I wrote on sinister powers in high places ceaselessly sowing societal seeds of chaos; and, last year, documented The New Normal’scult-like initiation with 2020 vision.
So, how were all of those words written in real time with impeccable accuracy? Surely, the articles derived from honest skepticism and curiosity as applied via logic and reason. But, at the very least, each article was written as the result of a gut feeling.
Or, perhaps, the pieces were posted pursuant to my perusing the back of the Book.
Here in America we are descended in blood and in spirit from revolutionists and rebels – men and women who dare to dissent from accepted doctrine. As their heirs, may we never confuse honest dissent with disloyal subversion. –
This morning I came across an article on our education system and was surprised it was published on a site dedicated to selling ammunition: Ammo.com. Turns out they have a whole library of articles that are worth reading and knowing about.
I found this to be a veritable treasure-trove of insightful, conservative and traditional material that “says it so much better than I ever could.” I commend it to my readers and want to thank the authors and editors of Ammo.com for making it available for sharing under a Creative Commons license.
The dust hasn’t settled, but the Left has wasted no time attempting to complete the “fundamental transformation” of America. Unless one has one’s head in the sand, which, regrettably, millions do thanks to a media that has successfully created an alternative reality that they’ve been brainwashed to accept, the slide down the slippery slope to the destruction of the greatest civilization ever known to man has accelerated almost to the point of no return. As we go forth, we must never forget what the Left did to us in 2020.
What we see happening right before our eyes is Evil unleashed. I used to think of the Leftists as whack-a-moles. At least with whack-a-mole the player has a chance at winning. I would now characterize what’s happening as the gates of Hell being opened and its hounds unleashed. The outcome of this war is uncertain. And while I hope and pray that Right and Truth will prevail, the tide is clearly in favor of the Left and Lies.
The Left has been trying to gain complete control of our country for several generations. All the political shenanigans, all the lies and distortions, all the mischaracterizations and outright falsehoods the Left has perpetrated, the cheating, the duplicity, the outright theft…in 2020 all was coordinated to bring about the outcome we are now witnessing: the destruction of America as we know it and its replacement with a Marxist/socialist utopian wet-dream.
“Come on Grumps, don’t you think you’re being a bit shrill and melodramatic,” one might ask?
I don’t think so. As each day goes by a new atrocity is unwrapped. Here it is the end of March, and look at what’s happened. I’m going to assume that readers are already quite aware of all these things, so this is a just a list to summarize what we’ve since inauguration day:
The “Biden-Harris” administration directive.
Harris speaking to world leaders instead of Biden.
1:15 PM “lids” on Biden’s day routinely.
$1.9 Trillion Covid boondoggle handouts to Leftists – only 9% actually for Covid.
” So here we are. Unity? Moderation? Not in a Biden-Harris administration that brags about passing the most “progressive bill in American history.” Not in an administration driven by reversing Trump policy no matter how successful while driven by divisiveness, lies, ideology, and power. But Trump’s gone so we have that going for us. Sadly, the 74 million American voters who didn’t cast ballots for these awful people and policies will pay the price for the vapidity of Americans filled with enough hate and ignorance to elect this garbage.”
“Remember 2020” needs to be the new patriot’s rallying cry!
The shooting in Boulder, Colorado yesterday immediately generated a tsunami of ‘news’ reports which included references to an “assault rifle” used by the perpetrator. Before the facts were even known, Biden already had his teleprompter ready to decry “high capacity magazines” and “assault weapons”. He boasted that he previously authored the 1994 ban on “assault weapons” which was allowed to expire in 2004. Why was it allowed to expire? Because it didn’t work![i]
Setting aside the hysterical white male supremacy drivel that spewed forth from the Leftist press, I’d like to remind my readers of some hard facts:
1. AR, as in AR-15, does NOT stand for “assault rifle” as so many ignorant politicians and reporters allege. It is a reference to the Armalite Company’s model AR-15, which was a scaled down version of the earlier AR-10 rifle designed by Eugene Stoner, a design engineer. Thanks to Stoner and Armalite, the M16 military version capable of fully-automatic (a.k.a. “select-fire”) was developed. Over 8 million M16’s have been manufactured and most of the U.S. military adopted it at one time or another as standard issue.
2. The AR-15 style rifle, which is manufactured by many companies, is NOT capable of fully-automatic/select-fire operation. It may LOOK like an M16 or M4 (another military version), but it is, by definition, NOT an assault rifle. It is a semi-automatic weapon, which means the trigger must be pulled each time it is fired. An assault rifle, by contrast, has the fully-automatic capability of a machine gun. For a layman’s discussion of what IS and what is NOT an assault weapon, here’s an excellent article on the subject. It is incredibly naive, inaccurate and misleading to equate the term “assault rifle” with any rifle that looks like an M16, M4 an AK47 (the other of the two most popular military rifles in the world) or any other semi-automatic or even a “scary looking” single shot pistol. I was appalled to see in the officer’s report on the Boulder shooting the misuse of the term, which shows just how successful the anti-gun-lobby has been in bastardizing the definition!
3. If the shooter hadn’t used an AR-style semi-automatic pistol/rifle in the incident, are there other weapons he could have used? The answer is YES! Here are some examples of very powerful semi-automatic shotguns that don’t look scary but could have indeed been used, with the same tragic effect.
4. As an aside, it is a fact that the greatest school mass murder in U.S. history was not Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, University of Texas – Austin or Columbine. It was the 1927 Bath, Michigan bombing, which claimed 44 lives, 38 of them children. In other words, a committed murderer has many weapons available to him (or her). If the Boulder shooter didn’t have ready access to a semi-automatic, AR style rifle and was bent on murdering innocent civilians yesterday, he had lots of other options.
5. If all 300 million-plus guns in the hands of private citizens vanished on a Monday at the snap of a finger, how many guns would there be in America by the end of the week, and in whose hands would they be? The answer, many, and they’d be in the hands of criminals who would have free rein.
6. While it’s a slogan, it’s nevertheless a true one: “The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is with a good guy with a gun.” While the anti-gun lobby wants you to believe this isn’t true, this article describes just a few, documented examples of this principle. Had another good guy with a gun (officer Eric Tally was obviously one) been present yesterday, how many of the ten lives that were lost might have been saved?
7. “Of all murders recorded in 2018 by the FBI, rifles accounted for 297 deaths. Handguns accounted for 6,603 deaths, and shotguns and all firearms not described otherwise accounted for 3,365 deaths[ii].”
So when all the hyperventilation and anti-gun rhetoric spews forth over the next days and weeks, quoting directly from the article referenced in the footnote:
“The last point to declare once again and for all is the inarguable fact that prohibits a piecemeal or total gun ban from ever working: A criminal intent on committing a mass shooting, murder, or other crime will not decide against it because he or she must use a handgun, or shotgun, or some other gun instead of an “assault rifle.”
An assault weapon ban never has not changed that and it never will. The only thing a gun ban does is restrict the Second Amendment rights of Americans. To argue a certain type of firearm should be prohibited from ownership by Americans in a factually useless attempt to reduce shootings is to fail to grasp the scope and intent of the Second Amendment.
The Second Amendment was not written by those who escaped tyranny for the purpose of hunting. Nor was it written to provide a means for the individual’s self-defense. It was written to ensure American citizens will always have the physical force which might some day be required to once again protect liberty and their Constitutional rights from tyranny. In 2020, perhaps even those on the far left of the political spectrum would concede such a necessity exists.”
[i] For a comprehensive exposé, see the article here entitled “Did the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban Work?“) And if you want to read the official federal sponsored study entitled “Updated Assessment of the Federal Assault Weapons Ban: Impacts on Gun Markets and Gun Violence, 1994-2003” you can read it here.
HR1 is every bit as bad as we predicted it would be. Same goes for the other bills the Leftist mob is trying to ram down our throats. There are not enough pejorative adjectives and adverbs to describe the depth of the depravity, their willingness to do anything, say anything to garner power and lord over us.
What is so galling to so many Americans is that the Democrats/Leftists were allowed to not just fraudulently steal the 2020 election, but the two Senate seats in Georgia as well. The GOP were truly deer-in-the-headlights after November 3rd. Had we one even ONE of the seats we would have maintained the Senate majority and had a shot at stopping the onslaught in its tracks. So conniving, so dishonest, so evil is the Cabal’s machine that the honest voters in America never had a chance! Our election officials failed us. Our legislators failed us. Our governors failed us. Even our judiciary at the local, state and federal level, all the way up to the Supreme Court failed us. And the military, whom we hoped would step in, failed us as well. We have only ourselves to blame for this abrogation of adult responsibility!
Obviously the Fourth Estate and Big Tech’s control of social media had a lot to do with this takeover by the Left. As I consciously didn’t watch, listen or read any of the Leftist propaganda during the election cycle I was only in passing aware of how destructive the misinformation and resultant brainwashing was. While the notion that Biden got 80 million + legitimate votes is unadulterated nonsense, that he would get even 50% of that number speaks to how good a job the Cabal did at not just obscuring perception but altering it completely for millions upon millions of gullible, non-thinking voters. And as we all know, perception IS reality. Thus, even committed, traditionalist voters were swayed to vote either for the Democrat ticket, or against Trump. And now look what we’ve got!
We frequently hear the phrase from the oath of office, “…support and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.” Who domestic enemies are is defined in Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. Essentially, it is those who “have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same (the United States) or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.”
With that background, have the Democrats given aid to enemies of the United States? Are not members of the Obama administration and now the Biden administration doing exactly that by joining or now rejoining the so-called “Iran Nuclear Deal?” Or the Paris Climate Accord? Doesn’t the imposition of draconian lockdowns that damage our industry and commerce weaken us and therefore put us at a disadvantage against our economic and military adversaries? Doesn’t turning our armed forces and intelligence agencies into social engineering experiments similarly weaken us against our enemies? Does the incurring of debt obligations so great that they make us incredibly vulnerable to debt holders who could simply refuse to buy our debt, thus sending interest rates skyrocketing with devastating effect on our economy not qualify as aiding our enemies? Doesn’t creating mass chaos at our Southern Border with all its consequences also aid them?
The conclusion is obvious. It is precisely the Democrat Party and its megalomaniacal leaders who are domestic enemies. They of course continuously and egregiously guilty of projection and claim the opposite – that Republicans, Conservatives, even non-partisans who don’t fall in line behind their woke, socialist, some would say communist, agenda are the domestic enemies. Saul Alinsky is jumping up and down for joy in his grave!
But it is the Democrats altogether, not just the lunatic fringe of the “Squad” and other wackos who are destroying our country right before our eyes. It’s been happening for years…death by a thousand cuts, but in 2020 the leftist Cabal finally achieved what they weren’t able to achieve since Obama’s first term…total control over our politics. Then there was still some lip service paid to written and unwritten rules of political and ethical conduct. Now the Democrats don’t even bother trying to maintain some semblance of patriotism or normalcy. They are completely, radically, unhinged!
With the help of the wokies in the media, who are also domestic enemies, we’ve entered Bizarro-World where lies are truth and truths are lies, good is evil and evil is good, where up is down and down is up…a state fomented by the Democrats all consciously and deliberately intended to ride roughshod over their political opposition, the welfare of our country and its people be damned!
Bottom line is, these Leftist politicians and media types are by their completely visible and transparent actions domestic enemies and by extension represent an existential threat to our republic. Is it any wonder that there is talk of secession and armed rebellion? Until these enemies begin to face consequences for what they’re doing they will continue pushing their idiocy.
The understatement of the moment is, “It’s getting rather sporty out there.” Someone the other day said, “If I hear one more person say, ‘hang in there’, I think I’ll deck him!” We’re way past that. The cavalry (.sic) isn’t coming and we’re going to have to think and act every day like our families’ futures hang in the balance.
They do.
I’ve started using my coffee cup with the slogan “No More Mister Nice Guy” on it. I’m writing checks to every cause supporting freedom and our constitution that I come across. I’m not lowering my voice in restaurants when I speak of the damage the Democrats are doing. I don’t keep my mouth shut anymore when I hear drivel or nonsense come out of the mouth of a wokie. If someone condescendingly tells me to put on my mask I reply, “You’re wearing yours, so you’re protected. I’m protected by common sense and REAL Science! I try to remain civil, but “I’m mad as hell and I’m not gonna take it anymore.”
The “GDA”/”Global Domination Agenda”, the “New World Order”, the Illuminati, “The Great Reset”, “Democratic Socialism”, “Cultural Marxism”…all refer to theories that at the core posit that there is a cabal of hyper-wealthy oligarchs arm-linked with elite political figures bent on subjugating and controlling humankind. In my opinion, there isn’t an organized cabal bent on “global domination” per se but rather an uncoordinated group of “holier than thou” utopian fantasy nuts believing in a state where we “can all just get along,” where there is no poverty, or illness, rancor, jealousy, crime, competing religion…you get the idea.
Not a global, unified plot on the part of these oligarchs, there is nevertheless a common arrogance that stems from wealth and success that gives people like Gates and Soros, etc. the mistaken notion that they know what’s best for society. Even the modestly-living Buffett is not immune.
With a blend of misguided altruism, (i.e. “if we control everything we can make the world a better place for all”) on one hand and a pre-occupation with power for power’s sake (a psychological state of megalomaniacal socio-pathology) on the other, this SPECTRE-like group (see James Bond) don’t meet in secret so much as rub shoulders at the Bilderberg and Davos meetings and arrive at similar conclusions and adopt similar strategies because of the human disposition towards Groupthink.
These are human beings subject to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, at the top of which is Self-Actualization. Once one has so much money that there is nothing more to buy, self-actualization or self-fulfillment comes from talking about and instigating activities and events that affirm their infinite wisdom. It takes the exercise of power and the delusion that one is smarter than 99.9% of the rest of humanity to feed their egos.
Warped, social-paraplegic geeks like Gates, Zuckerberg, Dorsey and Bezos use the platforms handed to them to preach their nonsensical ideas, ideas that would never apply to them of course, because they are “above all that”. In a wonderful display of one-upmanship, they in a sense compete with one another to see who can “do the most” for the peons.
With this wealth, power and influence the oligarchs naturally adopt/assume/gravitate to the role of benevolent dictator. They learned quickly that to try to convince thinking people of the merit of their idiotic ideas is exhausting. So they rapidly default to simply making pronouncements from on high, paying people off to do their bidding, and summon the press to spew their diktats. It’s easier to command than to convince.
Meanwhile the media: attention-craving, narcissistic spotlight hounds that they are, scrambling to climb the ladder, desperate for recognition good or bad, willing to step on anyone or anything that impedes their rise, take every opportunity to hang out with the oligarchs and political celebrities in hopes their glow will reflect upon them. Anything they can say or do which advances the canon preached by the oligarchs and curry their favor they will do, truth and good be damned. They are the chief enablers of these utopian elites.
In the other, non-business sphere (although they frequently mesh together), under the heading of elite political figures, Hitler, Mussolini, Castro, Gaddafi, Hussein (Saddam, not Barack…) (on second thought…maybe Barack as well – but more on that later)…all are examples of politically/militarily successful demagogues who consciously or unconsciously, effectively or de facto assumed the ‘benevolent dictator’ role.
Today, combining the likes of the Gates, Zuckerberg, Dorsey, Bezos, Soros, etc. crowd with megalomaniacal celebrity politicians like Schumer, Pelosi, Sanders, Trudeau, and of course Harris, and their acolytes/puppet-masters like Susan Rice, makes for toxic soup.
I deliberately leave out Biden because he’s really a non-entity anachronism/placeholder without any real power aspirations – just the desire to make it through another day without keeling over. As an aside, it’s his wife who’s the megalomaniac, just like Michelle.
With the oligarchs and the politicians singing the same tune, here we have both pathologies: utopian fantasy and power mega acting in concert. And the woke sheep, equally needful of ego-food, nod and worship them and their ideas. “Hey, they MUST be right, they’re so rich and/or powerful!“
History teaches that this doesn’t end well. Unfortunately, it takes cataclysmic events like wars and revolutions to unseat these eternally destructive ideas and the demagogues who perpetrate them.
A lot of damage gets done in the meantime. Examples: HR 1 – the bill that would institutionalize voter fraud and guarantee Democrat power retention; the so-called “Equality Act” that would shred any remaining gender definition; the pork-laden $1.9 TRILLION (yes, that’s with a T) COVID Relief bill that is unnecessary but doles out favors to democrat constituencies; the gutting of our energy self-sufficiency in genuflection to the god of environmentalism and THE CANCELLATION OF DR. SEUSS for Pete’s sake!
Right now the cauldron is bubbling…the American people KNOW the train is falling off the track. The flak in the air is so thick it’s impossible to navigate the near future without peril. Secession and armed rebellion are topics seriously being discussed, and the globalist oligarchs and politicians contemplate whether they moved too fast/pushed too hard as they stir their martinis and laugh all the way to the bank.
Everyone is afraid to speak of armed rebellion – it’s not politically correct and a direct affront to the Leftist agenda to suggest it. I can’t even count how may times I hear every day some politician or pundit saying something like “Violence in any form is wrong and cannot be tolerated.” All the while, LEFTIST violence and destruction IS ROUTINELY TOLERATED! Could we be headed to armed rebellion?
Is there are strategic plot to subjugate the world’s population à la George Orwell? I think not, but there’s no doubt the megaphones of wokeism and cancel culture are blaring, the hounds of hell have been unleashed, the cancer of utopian leftism is rapidly metastasizing, and the steamrollers of oppression are belching smoke (at least until they make electric ones) from their exhausts.
If the Left keeps this up, it’s just a matter of time before “the common folk” truly rebel against the sick depravity and evil they’re trying to force upon us.
Ok, it’s been a little over a month now and as I predicted, the damage being done by the Left is already starting to take its toll. Our energy independence has already been damaged and gas prices are rising quickly, The Democrats are bending over backwards to hug the Iranians. They’ve rejoined the farcical Paris Climate Accords. There’s a bill just passed by the House that will encourage boys to invade the girls’ bath and changing rooms and win all the track and field awards. Everything GOOD about the last four years is being deliberately undermined. Why?…to try to erase/cancel anything and everything about Trump and permanently banish him from politics and the Earth!
Is it just me, or does this appear to be the most childish, petulant, unhinged and tantrum-throwing behavior ever exhibited by human beings…grown-ups (not adults and not children) you’ve ever witnessed? I wish I could draw…I’d have two scenes in the cartoon I have in mind. In the first Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Adam Schiff and the rest of the Cabal are lying on the floor in a circle stamping their feet and fists and screaming, “Hillary should have been President! He stole the presidency from her.” In the second they’re all standing, jumping up and down screaming, “We showed them! We won!”
I think a third scene is needed. The same Cabal is sitting around a table, this time with the addition of people like Soros, Gates, Zuckerberg, Kerry, etc. Kamala Harris is there, of course, and Susan Rice is whispering in her ear saying, “Now, let’s do anything and everything we must to ensure we have power permanently in our hands: we’ll open the borders and give the illegals voting rights; we’ll demand compliance with draconian identity and “protection” regulations and statutes like mandatory vaccinations and mask wearing that will subjugate the peons and make them bend to our will. In short order they won’t be able to shop for groceries without an approved identity card! We’ll reward the homosexuals, transvestites and transgender ‘dysphoriacs’ so we can show how woke we are and continue the brainwashing we’ve been engaged in since the 60’s. We’ll push the military and intelligence community into accepting, no, celebrating sexual deviance and put leaders in place who will kowtow to us. Oh, and we’ll take away people’s ability to defend themselves by scrapping the 2nd Amendment. Don’t worry Ms. Vice President, as you know, Joe isn’t going to last for long and YOU will soon be our first woman (.sic), er gender-neutral, President.”
The tragedy of the above scenario is that it isn’t Orwellian fiction. It’s happening, right before our eyes and right here in River City (1)! The lunatics are indeed running the asylum, and the adults are chasing around after them as if they were herding cats or trying to catch a swarm of crickets. The Right is desperately trying to preserve traditional norms in politics and government. We are trying to act dignified and mature while the idiots on the Left don’t give a damn anymore who they offend, who they hurt…they don’t even acknowledge the United States as a sovereign, constitutional republic anymore! They say anything, do anything and with the endorsement and unbridled assistance of Big Tech and the media, will continue with their depravity and self-destructive, puerile antics until one of two things happen. Either: a) the People successfully revolt and cause the idiots to suffer the consequences of their idiocy (e.g. Gavin Newsome and Andrew Cuomo getting politically lynched) or b) enough anger and disgust builds up that the People, witnessing their impotence in the face of razor-wire protected government spewing forth diktats against their best interests, realize that collectively they have the power to root out and defeat the Leftists. The secession movements get traction, or some people get so pissed off that they REALLY incite armed rebellion and insurrection!
Both of the above are already happening, and this may not end well. So, in the meantime, getting prepared for not just temporary but long term utility interruptions, diminishing our reliance on tech and finding and supporting alternative sources of news and opinion are just some of the things we ought to be thinking about.
It’s said that “We are what we read.” Well, we also need to cleave to the voices we agree with! Forget the honest, liberal notion that we should welcome all opinions and views and subject everything, transparently, to honest debate. BS! If you think an honest debate can be had with domestic terrorists like the Democrat Party hyena leadership, I say, “Open your eyes…you’re sadly deluded!” Instead, gain strength and fighting words from those who can “say it better than we.”
A lot of people say, “That’s crazy! Reading and listening to conservative media is as bad as what the Left is doing listening to the mainstream demagogues and sycophants.” “It’s just as bad to live in the Right -wing bubble as it is to live in the Leftist one!”
I disagree. I’m discriminating and smart enough, thank you, to separate conspiracy myths and right-wing click bait from conservative-leaning and neutral news reporting and opinion. And I’m a skeptic of ALL media if I smell that what I’m reading is nothing more than sensationalism meant to lead the authors to “The Money”!
So, I constantly review and alter my newsfeed diet. Here is what I’m reading/viewing now:
The Epoch Times Gateway Pundit The Liberty Daily Bongino Report Just the News Zero Hedge Town Hall American Thinker Newsmax Free Republic The Daily Wire Mike Huckabee.com The Conservative Treehouse Straight Line Logic Liberty Nation News Whatfinger Love Breeds Accountability World News Daily Redstate Jonathan Turley Mark Levin
You’ll notice Fox News isn’t on the list. Since Rupert turned over management to his son(s), their “follow the money” pursuit has caused them to abandon their original traditional/conservative roots. The Right personalities and pundits who remain, like Tucker Carlson, Maria Bartiromo, etc. will eventually abandon the sinking ship and move to new, alternative platforms (or, like Lou Dobbs, will be cancelled).
You’ll also notice that I no longer have the Wall Street Journal on my list. The Journal, which was a mainstay of my diet for over 40 years, I’ve come to realize with age and wisdom is exclusively dedicated to the “Follow the Money” theme. In their case, of course, Money IS the topic and to have the worship and pursuit of money, even “clean” money as a constant in my diet seems misplaced now.
So I encourage my readers to be wise, be skeptical, be careful, be patient, thoughtful. Rededicate yourselves to Right principles. Live them. Do not abide fools…some of your friends may simply have to cease being your friends.
Be tolerant and patient with family members still under the spell of the little screens two inches from their noses… who lack wisdom, are filled with Leftist doctrine because they haven’t the exposure to Right principles, who lack courage to throw the BS flag and go along to get along. Love them despite their profligacy, sheepishness and naivete. It’s very easy to be angered when we hear nonsense coming out of their mouths with so much conviction. It often takes tremendous restraint to calmly, in our “indoor voices” try to exorcise the cancer they’ve been infected with.
Trying times.
Never give up. Never, never, give up.

Quips & Quotes
January 2, 2024 "As we enter 2024, there is widespread public agreement about two things: (1) something big is about to happen, and (2) whatever that something is, it sure as hell won’t be pretty! While it may get pretty ugly pretty fast, though, there is an upside to what’s coming: as a country, we can finally pull this disgusting Band-Aid off, face reality for what it is, and stop pretending. However bad this year might prove to be, it might also be tremendously liberating.
Why? Because, one way or another, things will soon change. For too long, those who “run” America have had two things in common: (1) a hatred for individual freedoms, and (2) an even deeper hatred for the one country on the planet explicitly founded on their protection. As a national security surveillance State superseded the U.S. Constitution, leftists have controlled academia, journalism, the legal system, and entertainment. They have shoved anyone with a working brain out the door while assuring themselves that they deserve their privileged social positions and unearned accolades. They tell themselves that they are smart and enlightened, but anybody capable of self-examination knows this not to be true. Leftists are not happy people. They have not figured out any special meaning to life because, to them, life is meaningless. In other words, for too many years, a collection of the most depressed, least curious, morally relativistic, and intellectually homogenous people on the planet have been given pampered positions in exchange for acting as nihilistic and narcotic-dependent sea vessel captains willing to steer America into an iceberg of decline and failure." J.B. Shurk, American Thinker, January 2, 2024 "Do We Hit the Iceberg or Finally Change Course?"
November 3, 2023 "There’s a subtext to nearly all American political trends today. It’s hardly ever spoken about overtly and explicitly. But the topic is nonetheless always there. All insiders know about it. It’s also the central and critical debate concerning America’s future.
The question is as follows. Will the United States continue the present system whereby representative democracy persists as a mere veneer to keep the public distracted and defocused on the real rulers in the nation? Or will something dramatic be achieved whereby the swamp is truly drained, the administrative state gutted, the agencies disempowered, and we return to an actual constitutional system in which the people truly rule themselves through their elected representatives?
These are the two paths. It’s one or the other. They’re mutually incompatible." Jeffrey A. Tucker, November 3, 2023, Epoch Times, p A22, "Are You an Institutionalist or Anti-Institutionalist?"
October 30, 2023 "If you want an indicator of how lost Western civilization has become, go to your kids’ school and check their rules on fighting. Most likely, you’ll find out if two kids get into a fight, both get suspended, regardless of whether one was a punk bully who started it and the other was simply defending himself or some little kid. This is a moral disaster, of course – violence in the defense of what is right is a moral obligation and a symbol of a greater rot within society."
"The world's true nature is that good is forever pitted against evil."
"We must learn again to be ruthless in defeating our enemies. The big lie that Western civilization tells itself is that there are no real enemies, that there are no bad people – except the people of the West themselves, who bear some sort of original sin for not being corrupt and inept Third World barbarians."
"We have forgotten our strength and our courage. We have forgotten that we survive not through gentle hugging but through sword-swinging.The idea that Israel should somehow give these Hamas barbarians food, water, and electrical power even if it surrounds Gaza and prepares to attack is mind-boggling insanity. The moral illiteracy of expecting Israel to care more about the Palestinian people than other Palestinians do is simply bizarre."
"The hard truth is that the world contains bad people who must be crushed through ruthless violence, which shocks and horrifies modern sensibilities. But it is reality nonetheless. When people want to kill you, you are at a decision point. You can either let them kill you or stop them. But stopping them often involves aesthetically displeasing actions, such as blowing them into little bits with bombs or shoving a bayonet into their guts and watching them die in agony. And it necessarily means inflicting death and damage on the noncombatant camp followers around them. That’s why they say war is hell. And that’s why starting one is probably not a good idea. But when someone else starts one, you have to choose them or you. Someone’s going to die badly, and you know, I propose it is those other guys."
October 16, 2023 "Though around the world sociopaths stabbed some folks, the Day of Jihad fizzled in America – how many bummed patriots slammed in a mag hoping some mutant was going to choose his small town to prove Jason Aldean right? But it is only a matter of time. When you allow millions of military-aged males to come unvetted into your country, including many from bizarre hellholes where hatred for Americana is more common than food and indoor plumbing, there is a non-zero chance that some of them are part of sleeper cells waiting for the signal to murder Americans here at home." Kurt Schlichter, Town Hall, October 16, 2023, "We Are Sitting Ducks And Our Leaders Do Not Care"
August 22, 2023 "When arguing in federal court in HI in 2020, I had to get permission from the governor to enter his precious state to argue that his silly COVID lockdowns violated the Constitution. I lost. This same state, in real life, has shown how little respect for life its leaders really have. My perfectly healthy clients were not allowed to travel from one island to another to visit their own property. American citizens were turned away at the airport because they got the wrong COVID test on the mainland. The hotel gave me “parole” from the one way card key rule only to do my legal business and leave. I could not call an Uber or take a taxi at the airport. The National Guard met me at the gate to escort me to Hawaii COVID immigration to provide my information, which they verified with the hotel. I was to keep my phone on at all times so that they could track my location. This same police state didn’t turn the water on in Lahaina, didn’t have sirens, can’t begin to tell you how many children died from their incompetence. Or begin to explain it. Remember all this the next time you are asked to comply with farcical, unjust “laws” made by dictators. They are lying when their lips are moving about how much they care about you and your little life and your paper constitutional rights. Americans are beginning to realize how much we are on our own. Such a betrayal." Harmeet K. Dhillon, on "X", 8/22/23 12:44 AM
August 17, 2023 - A MUST READ!!!! The following is a transcription of Newt Gingrich's comments on Hannity last night. "“I think what you’re seeing tonight is one tree in a forest, and I think we are drifting towards the greatest Constitutional crisis since the 1850s, uh, and the rise of secession and the Civil War. I don’t mean that as hyperbole. Uh, if you read Andy McCarthy’s remarkable book, Ball of Collusion, which came out in 2019, he makes very clear that it is Barack Obama who corrupts the Justice Department, it is Hillary Clinton who routinely breaks the law and gets away with it. And now we have Joe Biden who’s learned, he’s learned from Obama that is doesn’t matter what you do, if you’re a liberal Democrat, you will not be prosecuted. He learned from Hillary that a person in high public office can get millions and millions of dollars. And they learned from watching Donald Trump that a true outsider, willing to take on the entire system, could destroy their entire machine. So what you’re seeing across the country, is a desperate, last-ditch effort by a corrupt machine to destroy their most dangerous opponent in a way which not only breaks the Constitution, destroys the rule of law, and establishes a moment of bitterness, uh, which I think will last for a generation or more. I think this is gonna be a horrendous period and we just need to understand: The people who want to control America and dictate to the rest of us will break any law, lie about any topic, and manipulate the system any way they can, and that includes a lot of the elite news media.”
August 10, 2023 "The fact that young men are getting more conservative is a cause for optimism. Remember, if you grew up male in the last ten years or so, every institution has been deployed against you. You’ve been told you are bad and horrible and evil and worthless. In contrast, every girl is an empowered girlboss ready to take her rightful place at the pinnacle of society. And to facilitate that, they must displace the dudes. And it’s no secret – that displacement, that consignment of men to second-class status, is not merely admitted but celebrated by our trash ruling class." Kurt Schlichter, August 10, 2023, Town Hall, "Angry Young Men Are Going To Disrupt The Garbage Paradigm"
Articles/Writings We Think Are A Must Read
Who Will Say No More to the Current Madness?
Once again, Victor Davis Hanson has nailed it. In his article there is a list of the most egregious crimes and failings of the Left and this Administration. Stronly urge readers to read the whole article. Here’s an excerpt of the most salient points:
“America is in existential danger.
The Biden administration has utterly destroyed the southern border — and immigration law with it.
Biden green lighted 7 million illegal aliens swarming into the U.S. without legal sanction or rudimentary audit.
China spies inside and over the U.S. with impunity. Beijing has never admitted to its responsibility for the gain-of-function COVID virus that killed a million Americans.
President Joe Biden printed $4 trillion at exactly the wrong time of soaring post-COVID consumer demand and supply shortages. No wonder he birthed the worst inflation in 40 years.
In response, interest rates tripled, gas prices doubled.
Our military is thousands of recruits short. It lacks sufficient munitions.
Following Biden’s humiliating pullout from Afghanistan, vast troves of arms were abandoned in Kabul. Billions more in scarce weapons were sent to Ukraine.
The Pentagon’s woke agenda trumps meritocracy in promotions and advancement.
Our enemies — Russia, China, Iran, North Korea — are on the move, while the U.S. seems listless.
The Biden renegade Department of Justice, CIA and FBI have become weaponized. Ideology, politics, and race — not the law — more often guide their investigations, intelligence operations and enforcement.
The downtowns of our once majestic major cities are becoming unlivable.
They are mired in refuse and trash, violent crime and homelessness. Stores and businesses leave. Millions each year flee the blue urban coasts to the red west and south.
To even say there are still two biological genders, that global warming may not be entirely manmade or necessarily destroying the planet, or that class, not race, is the proper barometer of inequality is to face ostracism and career cancellation.
The public assumes that Biden is severely cognitively challenged, likely corrupt, and a serial fabricator.
Most know what must be done, but few will tell the truth: Balance the budget. Return to legal only immigration. Restore a well-funded, but unwoke Pentagon.
Insist on racial unity. Curb the overweening administrative state. Enforce the rule of law.
Produce more gas and oil. Reestablish civic education. Insist universities protect free speech and due process — and stop proselytizing.
In other words, restore what until recently made America the strongest, most prosperous, and freest nation in the world. And quit undoing all the great good that eight generations of prior Americans bequeathed to us.”
Victor Davis Hanson saying it better than anyone. Perfectly describes the childish, impetuous behavior of the Left. A quick and incredibly accurate take on everything we see before our eyes.
An excerpt:
“Cry-baby tantrums won’t win over the public. These nonstop puerile meltdowns have turned off most Americans who tire of whiny narcissistic hypocrites.”
Strongly recommend the artful summary of what the Left is trying to do with the Disinformation Governance Board canard written by Michael Walsh in “The Pipeline”, May 2, 2022. You’ll find the whole article here. Some excerpts:
“So now the mask has dropped and, for the first time, the American people can see the modern Left in all its hateful, unadorned, vituperative, spiteful glory. Case in point: the announcement last week that the Department of Homeland Security—one of the excrescences of the Bush administration, cobbled together in its panic over 9/11—has created the “Disinformation Governance Board” in order to combat what it has, via its hitherto little-known Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, already dubbed “mis-, dis-, and mal-information.” Otherwise known as alternative points of view, but shut up, citizen.”
“Let us now remind ourselves of the late historian and Soviet scholar Robert Conquest’s third law of politics: “The simplest way to explain the behavior of any bureaucratic organization is to assume that it is controlled by a cabal of its enemies.” At this point in American history, that is not only a theory but a fact. Having narrowly “won” the 2020 election by stealing it fair and square, the Left is putting pedal to the metal to accomplish as much of its anti-foundational agenda as it can before the clock runs out on its tiny congressional majorities this fall.”
On the Subject of “Things happening in the background to purge the illicit Biden administration“
The article in American Thinker by Dr. Brian Joondeph entitled: “Nothing Can Stop What is Coming. What if Nothing is Coming?” lays out the case for the increasingly skeptical that anything is going to halt the Leftist Leviathan. Strongly recommend this article not to throw cold water on all the hope so many of us have of there being some justice on the horizon, but to lay out the stark possibility that it’s all wishful thinking and we’re stuck with what we’ve got at least until January 2023.
On Climate Change Fraud
One of the best debunking articles/videos I’ve seen recently on the revolting fraud being perpetrated by the climate alarmists. In very calm, easy to understand terms the author shows how graphs and picking the right starting point for data visualization is being used to create the narrative that they rely on for their funding, their power, their nefarious attempts to alter society and our world. This same manipulation occurs with ALL kinds of data and the Left is expert in obscuring truth, altering perception and brainwashing a lazy, non-thinking mass of sheep to believe what they want them to believe. Strongly recommend watching this…12 minutes long and a must see!
