Roe v. Wade Overturned

Government, Law and Order, Morality, Politics

Immediate thoughts: 1. Roe was decided 50 years ago based on convoluted contortions of constitutional law and was the HEIGHT of judicial activism. 2. What happened today reverses the wrong done 50 years ago. 3. It’s not about pro-life vs. pro-choice…it’s about the essential meaning of the Constitution. Roe violated the principles of federalism. This decision restores them. 4. The Left’s/Democrats’ whining, weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth is just their typical histrionics. Any fair reading of the opinion underscores this decision doesn’t outlaw abortion! 5. Comparisons between this decision and the 2A decision yesterday are ridiculous. The right to bear arms is an ENUMERATED right in the Bill of Rights. Abortion is about a judicially activated ‘right’ that was NOT based either on the Constitution or the Bill of Rights.

The “Bruen” Gun Control Decision

2nd Amendment, Emergency Preparedness, Headlines, Reason, Society & Culture

The Left and the Right are immediately reacting to the SCOTUS decision to strike down the New York “must show cause” law that requires citizens to prove they have some kind of special need for self defense to obtain a concealed carry gun permit. Justice Thomas’ opinion for the majority is straightforward and the conclusion obvious. You shouldn’t have to PROVE you have a special need in order to benefit from the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights. Period! What galls me, however, is the panting whine of the Left that “this will turn New York City into the Wild West”. Nonsense. New York and all the other major cities are ALREADY the Wild West, where LAWLESSNESS RULES! What the possibility of ordinary citizens walking the streets of Manhattan with concealed guns will do is DETER many a thug from playing the “knockout game” (for example) or give a citizen a fighting chance to defend himself or herself when accosted by bad guys. The media doesn’t talk about the deterrence impact, however. They immediately go to the extremes to formulate the debate and controversy. That conflict, of course, like the car wreck by the roadside, is where the money is. Follow the money.

Attrition – The Dems’ Most Successful Strategy

Government, Politics

Ever wondered why the Dems don’t just double down, but triple and quadruple down with their stupidity? Ever wondered how it is they will lie, deny, dissemble, deflect, detract, destroy over and over and over again without ever tiring? The reason is they cannot convince their opponents, a.k.a. sane people of their ideas so they fight a battle of ATTRITION. It is the strategy of wearing us down so that we become desensitized to their constant droning and just shrug our shoulders without fighting back. The mask mandates/fear-mongering over COVID, for example. Despite all evidence that at a minimum there are questions regarding the infectiousness, the efficacy of the jabs, etc., they droned on and on about mask wearing till we shrugged and just put them on for months and months! Take for another example the protests in front of the Supreme Court Justices’ homes. It is against the law to conduct such intimidation but it goes on and on, with no action by the justice department, until an armed lunatic confesses he’s outside Justice Kavanaugh’s house to kill him and thus “have meaning in his life.” In this case, the repeated and perpetual inaction to stop the protests led to this event, but by deliberate neglect of the law breaking, the Left (=the Media) suppresses/forgives the inaction so we don’t notice until someone with a weapon (a gun?) shows up and the Left has something they can use to their advantage. Same goes with the border crisis, the formula debacle, the price of gas. These people are truly despicable.

Endgame

America, Government, Headlines, Politics, Values

So, the Electoral College submitted their votes, and even Newsmax reluctantly dubbed Biden “President Elect”, but seven states also registered competing votes!

I will never accept that the American People selected a bumbling, demented, hyper-corrupt puppet spewing nothing but carefully crafted verbal diarrhea as its leader. President Trump must use every legal power he has to arrest this national travesty of an election and ensure Biden, and more accurately, Harris, never take office. I for one will support him because our constitutional republic teeters in the balance.

Where do we go from here?

The tsunami of, frankly, unadulterated nonsense that it’s all over, Biden won and we need to “move on” seems overwhelming. What’s been interesting to see is who continues to fight for the truth and the proper result to this election, and who has capitulated to the Leftist mob. So many Republicans have given up… they represent the professional political class worried only about their own skins. “Live to fight another day” is their cry!

To that I throw the BS flag! They’re cowards, weaklings and deserve to be thrown off the field of battle for their treason. How ANY self-respecting, elected GOP legislator or executive could let this travesty of an election stand disgusts me.

But I digress. As I have stated numerous times, I will not concede unless Trump does. I earlier said I’d concede if the Supreme Court rules Biden won, but they haven’t. They’ve used procedural arguments to absolve themselves of responsibility for this fiasco. From what little I know of jurisprudence, the door is still very much open to the right case brought before them, but so far it appears the only way this debacle will be rectified is with some pretty dramatic action on Trump’s part: the invocation of his 2018 Executive Order, the rejection of the Electoral College vote count on January 5th, or the ignoring of the fallacious Democrat electoral votes when they are read by Vice President Pence.

This situation is so dire, and the Democrats’ deceit, fraud and felonies so egregious, I hope the boom gets lowered on these despicable, megalomaniacal oxygen wasters!

And that just might happen!

I have not given up and will fight, with words and as much influence as I can wield, till it’s over.

And it ain’t over!

Is Your Seatbelt Still Fastened?

America, Government, Headlines, Politics, Reason, Society & Culture

It’s the Monday after Thanksgiving. As many predicted, since November 4th what we’ve seen is a S#$% Show. I have been glued to my go-to channels trying to decipher every move being made by the adversaries in what I believe amounts to a battle for the soul of our nation.

Things are moving so fast and are so confusing it’s difficult to keep up. Take for example what happened in Georgia yesterday. Learning that election officials planned to wipe the November 3rd election data from the voting machines Team Trump filed for an emergency injunction in Federal Court to stop what would have amounted to destruction of evidence. The judge granted the injunction. The Leftist defendants went into action and within a couple of hours the judge reversed his decision on a technicality. The Parler-sphere (what used to be the Twitter-sphere) exploded crying “foul”! Late last night the judge reversed again, slapping the injunction back on. Can you imagine the frenzy of lawyers crowded around the bench in the courtroom arguing this? AND THIS IS JUST ONE STATE!

I don’t really know where this is going to end up. I said months ago that the Democrats’ strategy was to create chaos and run out the clock. That’s precisely what they did in what in retrospect looks like a truly spy-novel-worthy way. In my head and heart I cannot nor will I ever believe that Joe Biden won the election. As jubilant as the Left is that he did, I don’t even think THEY believe it, even less perhaps than we did when Trump won in 2016!

Proving Trump won and Biden lost, or at least reaching the Supreme Court with evidence that the whole election was sufficiently tainted that a so-called “contingent election” is absolutely necessary (see Article 2, Section 1 and the 12th Amendment) is a legal and political cat and mouse game played in a labyrinth. If the State legislatures don’t step up sufficiently to represent the people’s true wishes, I hope and pray SCOTUS will look beyond deadline dates and technicalities to save our nation from what would be the greatest debacle and injustice ever perpetrated on the American people.

Yesterday, I penned a letter to the Supreme Court Justices that I published on Parler. It summarizes where I am at this point.

Dear SCOTUS Justices,

The vast majority of Americans know the Nov 3rd election was fraught with irregularities and violations of state and federal statutes at least, and at worst, unprecedented fraud. We are at a huge disadvantage trying to ferret out the truth of who honestly won the election. We want justice but are ill-equipped to seek and obtain it given the complexities of our judicial system. Justice would consist of a transparent and honest audit of the results, or if that is impossible, proceeding forth with a contingent election per Article Two, Section 1, clause 3 and the 12th Amendment. Either can only happen if YOU decide they can.

Please search your hearts and minds, setting aside all legal technicalities, as to what is best for our nation. As our third branch of government, we implore you to take it upon yourselves to do what is right for our country.

Sincerely and with respect,

Grumps & The American People
