“When something becomes too much fun, the government will move swiftly to tax it. Disgruntled Taxpayer

Outside Vicksburg, Mississippi on Route 80, my brother Howard and I cranked east through the midday heat. He was spending two weeks of his vacation to travel with me.

Heat waves rippled off the summer pavement while the blazing sun baked the land. Trees lined the highway, with crows and sparrows flying in all directions, but nowhere in particular. One crow was having a difficult time as four sparrows darted in on him, pecking at his feathers. Each time they attacked, he dove away from them.

“Those guys are giving that big fella’ a hard time,” Howard said.

“I never have figured out why they attack a crow like that,” I said.

“Maybe it gets down to territorial turf,” Howard said. “Hey, we should make Vicksburg pretty soon. You want to stop at a salad bar place and clean them out?”

“Good idea.”

Riding in the south during the summer cooked bicyclists with heat and humidity. It was so hot we looked like one of those commercials where they fry an egg on the hood of a car. We were the eggs. And, like the Michael Jordan Gatorade advertisement, we were sweating colors. Howard and I left a trail of splashes from our sweat-soaked bodies. No matter. We looked forward to the Civil War monuments in Vicksburg. We smiled and waved at passing cars. The Deep South was laid back and moved at a snail’s pace. People seemed to get a kick out of our riding cross-country through their state. They took pictures of us, sometimes having their family crowd around our bikes.

With so much attention, we had a lot to talk about after leaving a photo session. People said the darnedest things about long distance touring riders. They kept us laughing because they thought were courageous or crazy.

We were talking about the comments from a family that had stopped their car to take our pictures when a black and white police cruiser passed us traveling west. We waved at him. He waved back but had a stern, redneck look on his face.

I wave to policemen out of respect or fear—I’m not sure which. I know they can give me a ticket for speeding. On a bicycle, they can’t, so I never give them much thought. I watched him go by in my rear view mirror, when he flipped the car around and turned on his flashing red lights.

“That cop turned around,” Howard said.

“Must be he got a call for an emergency back down the road,” I said.

I expected the cruiser to fly past us. But it didn’t. The police officer pulled in behind us.

“That cop is pulling us over,” I said.

“Probably for speeding,” Howard joked. “Maybe he’s going to give us a ticket for going too slow. Now wouldn’t that be a good one? No, I’ve got it, he’s going to give us tickets for not having a license to drive a bicycle.”

We pulled our bikes to a stop. A rotund, middle-aged officer in a blue uniform got out of his cruiser. We stood astride our bikes, looking back, not sure why he had stopped us.

“Afternoon boys,” he said, walking up to us.

“How are you, sir?” I said.

“I’m fine,” he said. “When I passed you boys, I noticed you were smiling and laughing.”

“Yes, sir,” Howard said. “We’re having a great day. We just love it here in Louisiana. In fact, we’re hoping to meet Huckleberry Finn when we cross the Mississippi.”

“How far ya’ll goin’?” the officer asked in a brusque voice.

“We’re on our way from coast to coast,” I said. “Pacific to the Atlantic.”

“You boys ever had your heads examined for mental righteousness?”

“Our Mom told us we were crazy to ride our bikes across America,” Howard said. “But, so far, the craziness hasn’t killed us.”

The officer looked over our packs as if he might be looking for drugs.

Right then, I didn’t like this guy’s demeanor. My Dad always told us to be polite and keep smiling at a policeman. We should always say “Yes sir” or “No sir,” to a man with a badge. This was one of those times to be extra polite.

“Have you had a good time in Louisiana?” he asked in a stern voice.

“Yes, sir,” I said. “We’ve had a real fine time and we’re looking forward to Mississippi.”

“Right now, you’re in my jurisdiction,” he said. “When I drove by you, it looked like you were having a lot of fun.”

“Yes, sir, you could say that,” Howard said.

“Would you say you’re having TOO much fun?” the man asked, straight faced.

“TOO much fun?” I said. “Well, er, yes sir, we’re probably having too much fun, right Howard?”

“YES SIR, that’s right, we’re having too much fun.”

The officer stepped closer. He looked serious. Maybe I had seen too many movies with redneck cops hassling people. Nonetheless, I was concerned. He looked the part—thick neck, crew cut, short fat fingers, belly hanging over his belt and boots that hadn’t been polished in a coon’s age.

“I hate to say this boys, but there’s an ordinance in this county for having too much fun. People have gotten out of hand in the past from having too much fun. Because I’m an officer of the law, I’m sworn to uphold that ordinance. I’m gonna’ have to write ya’ll a citation. May I see some form of identification?”

“Sure officer,” we replied, giving him our driver’s licenses.

“A law against having too much fun?” Howard said.

“That’s right boys,” he said. “You wait here while I write you up. I see you’re brothers.”

“Yes, sir,” I said.

“I’ll be right back in a few minutes,” he said, walking away.

“This is crazy,” Howard said. “This guy is out to lunch. He’s only got one oar in the water. He’s 51 cards short of a full deck.”

“He’s got a badge and gun,” I muttered.

“He can’t give us a ticket for having too much fun,” Howard said. “That does it! I’m going right into the county courthouse and demand a jury trial on this one. I mean, this is nuts! We can’t take this lying down. I’ll get the ACLU if I have to. We’ll take this one all the way to the Supreme Court. Too much fun, right!”

“I thought he was kidding, but he’s not kidding,” I said.

While we waited, I drank a quart of water and switched my bottles on the down tube to have a full one ready. It was warm water, but quenched my thirst. Darned if I could figure out what we had done to get this cop upset. But I had learned never to argue with a police officer. They had absolute authority. Minutes later, he walked up to us with two tickets in hand.

“I know ya’ll think this is out of line,” he said. “But I don’t make the laws…I just enforce them. By the way, I like riding bicycles, too. How come you boys are riding mountain bikes with drop bars?”

“They’re more durable and we don’t get many flat tires,” I said. “They ride smoother. Plus, we have three positions for our hands with drop bars. Straight bars fatigue our hands by keeping them in one position.”

“I’ll have to remember that,” he said. “By the way, I live in Vicksburg. Are you boys hungry?”

“Yes, sir,” we replied, not understanding why he was so friendly when he had given us a ticket.

“There’s a nice restaurant called “Aunt Dorothy’s” right after you cross the Mississippi. You can’t miss it,” he said, after giving us our tickets and walking away.

He drove toward Vicksburg. I stood there looking at Howard, who was just as incredulous as I was.

“What in the hell just happened to us?” I asked.

Howard looked down at his ticket and started laughing his head off.

“What’s so funny?” I asked.

“Read it,” Howard said, laughing and slapping his thigh.

On the ticket in long hand, it read, “This is a citation to the Wooldridge brothers for having too much fun on their bicycle trip across America. You can either pay a large fine down at the county courthouse, or you can come over to my house (directions below) and take showers, plus eat my wife’s great cooking. You’re welcome to stay overnight. My kids would love to hear about some of your experiences. It would be an honor and a pleasure to have you visit us.”

“I’ll be damned,” I said.

After riding into town that evening, we followed Officer Buford Jackson’s directions to his house. We leaned our fully loaded touring bikes against the white railing on the front porch of an old-style home where a couple of rockers awaited for the evening sunset and friendly conversation.

I knocked.

When the door opened, I had never seen a wider smile, a bigger grin, a larger heart nor a face so full of mirth and mischief as I saw on Buford Jackson at that moment. Behind him, two little girls and a boy must have been told that Clint Eastwood and his brother were coming to dinner, because their faces reflected youthful expectation of something special about to happen in their lives.

That evening, we ate a dinner set for a king. Martha Jackson was the perfect hostess. We answered dozens of questions from the children—Shirley, Paula and Zac. It was truly an evening of having TOO much fun.

The next morning, as we pedaled onto the highway, I was reminded again, as I had been hundreds of times in the past, that people are beautiful. Never assume you know what or who they are. No matter what their color, religion, job, or location–people are unique, and mostly, they are doing the best they can with their lives.

Even with all the ‘bad’ things going on in this society, it’s basically a generous, caring, respectful and decent nation. I know we focus on the news every night because bad news travels fast. But when you think of every little child that laughs or smiles at you, your life is blessed. When you say “Good morning” to someone and pay him or her a compliment, you change the world. When it’s returned to you, it changes your world. Try it the next time you buy groceries. As you check out, compliment the cashier, “Gee, your earrings look beautiful on you.” Or, “That’s a nice shirt, sir…you look sharp in it.” Your compliments are warmly received which makes you feel good, and wonderfully enjoyed by the person you complimented.

In the case of Buford and Martha, my world became richer all because I

was smiling and having too much fun. Bless them both for their love, generosity, sense of humor and their children with big bright eyes filled with expectation. I am thankful that most of the world is filled with Buford’s and Martha’s, and because it is, we are all blessed with joy at surprising moments in our lives.

In my lifetime, I hope to get arrested many more times for having too much fun.

“Courage is one thing. A sense of purpose another. When you put them together in one human being, the world can be changed.”  —John Brown

By the mid 1970’s, Viet Nam’s stranglehold had loosened its grip on America. Our crippled country was trying to heal itself as wounded veterans limped home. The more unfortunate were stuffed into hospitals. My Army military duty was spent working with amputees and burn patients.

Afterwards, I returned to teaching.

That summer of 1984, I pedaled through heavy traffic for the beginning of my coast to coast bicycle adventure. The Los Angeles smog choked me for 100 miles into the Mojave Desert. After crossing the Colorado River, I breathed easier when the brown cloud flowed south toward Phoenix. I pedaled into cleaner air in the mountains. Climbing steep grades took half the day while coasting down the backside took only 45 minutes.

In New Mexico, I crossed the continental divide and descended into the desert on Route 380. With a blazing sun overhead, I struggled along the two-lane pavement. Sweat dripped from my face and arms. Every breath crowded my mouth with air as dry and hot as cotton balls. Heat waves rippled over the pavement as I descended further into the barren landscape. The thermometer hit 103 degrees by the time I was ten miles out of Roswell, New Mexico. With no aliens in sight, I kept going.

(Sandi and Frosty on the Columbia River Gorge of Lewis & Clark Trail)

Ahead, I noticed a lone figure walking along the left side of the road. It was hard imagining how anyone could be walking down the highway in that torrid heat.

“I wonder what that guy’s doing walking in this heat?” I said to myself. “Looks like he’s got a dog with him too.”

“That isn’t a dog,” I gasped seconds later, doubting my eyes, and straining harder to make out what I saw.

It was another man walking on his hands. Within a few seconds, I found out why. His legs were missing.

Less than forty yards away, the lone figure was a man reading a book, walking beside another man walking on his hands. A camper van was parked on the shoulder a half mile ahead. I rode up even with them. Something inside just made me stop and lay my bike in the gravel.

I couldn’t help crossing the road, knowing that whoever this man was, he possessed inconceivable courage. What was he doing out here walking on his hands in the desert? He saw me and stopped. He lowered his body down to the ground, resting it on a leather pad that covered his two severed legs just below the groin. His Paul Bunyan upper arms led down to his hands, which grasped two rubber pads. Sweat soaked his T-shirt. His dark hair framed a tanned, round face punctuated by a pair of clear brown eyes.

“Hi, how ya’ doin’?” I said, approaching with my hand extended. “My name is Frosty.”

“Glad to meet you,” he said shaking my hand. “I’m Bob Wieland.”

“Pleasure to meet you,” I said. “I have to say, Bob, I’m more than a bit curious seeing you out here in the desert.”

“The same could be said about you,” he said. “What are you doing out here?”

“I’m riding my bicycles across America.”

“That makes two of us,” Bob added. “I’m walking across. I’d bike but my legs are too short for the pedals.”

His humor was natural. We bantered a few minutes about the weather. Bob gave me a short history of his journey. His friend drove the car ahead and came back to walk with him. Bob lost his legs in a grenade explosion in Viet Nam. I asked him when he had started.

“I’ve been out 19 months and have completed 980 miles,” he said. “At my speed, I can finish this adventure in three more years, maybe less.”

“Why are you doing it?” I asked.

“I want Americans to know what wars do to people,” he said. “Besides that, there’s a lot of adventure out here on the road. I suppose I could sit back and get fat watching TV for the next fifty years, but I want to do something with my life. I want to make a difference. I have to make do with what I have left. You know the saying, you only go around once.”

“You have my greatest admiration,” I said, shaking his hand again. “Guess I better get moving.”

“Take care,” Bob said. “Have a good ride. I’ll get there one of these days.”

Turning away from that amazing human being, tears filled my eyes. I started crying half way across the road. What he was attempting staggered my imagination. My friends thought I was nuts taking a transcontinental bicycle trip, but they had no understanding of how easy I had it compared to Bob Wieland. Miles and years down the road, that moment colors my mind as vividly as the day it happened.

Most human beings have handicaps in one way or the other–physical or psychological. What’s important is how they handle their limitations. He concentrated on what he could do, not on what he couldn’t do. Instead of giving up, Bob pushed forward into the unknown not only determined to succeed, but expecting to succeed.

George Bernard Shaw celebrated people like Wieland when he wrote, “This is the true joy of living, spending your years for a purpose recognized by yourself as a right one…to be used up when they throw you on the scrap heap of life. To have been a force of nature instead of a selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.”

Bob Wieland pushed himself through 3,500 miles of hardship that few people could comprehend. He gutted his way up mountains, sweated his way across deserts, and fought through raging storms. Every labored breath drew him closer to his goal. Along the way, he saw his share of sunrises and sunsets. He breathed free the sweet and succulent breezes of life. With every human being he met, Bob Wieland inspired and transformed them with his quest. Along the way, he was shown the opposite of war–in human kindness.

After three years, eight months, and six days, Bob Wieland reached the Atlantic Ocean, succeeding in his quest to walk on his hands coast-to-coast across America. There may be no greater triumph over tragedy than Bob Wieland’s will to live his life with purpose, power and meaning.

He is an inspiration to all of humanity.

“Bicycling unites physical harmony coupled with emotional bliss to create a sense of spiritual perfection that combines one’s body, mind and spirit into a single moving entity. Bicycling allows a person to mesh with the sun, sky and road as if nothing else mattered in the world. In fact, all your worries, cares and troubles vanish in the rear-view mirror while you bicycle along the byways of the world: you pedal as one with the universe.” —Frosty Wooldridge

It could happen in the morning when you pedal down the highway to see dewdrops sparkling off the leaves of a cherry tree. You stop to pull cherries off the tree along the Lewis and Clark Trail in Oregon. Their succulent sugars bathe your mouth with magical energy and cause your taste buds to turn summersaults on your tongue.

How about that moment where you saw a DQ along Route 66 in New Mexico? You could not stop yourself from buying an ice cream cone that slid down your throat with all the joy of a culinary waterslide that you loved when you were a kid. It splashed your entire being with happiness.

Do you remember that night by the fire with new cycling friends camping in Morro Bay, California on Route 101, with Arctic Terns, Canada geese and another 50 species of migratory birds squawking in the water? How about those flames licking the night air while you watched your dinner bubble up on the coals—ready to be devoured by your hungry body? The magic of a day well-lived day on your bicycle!

Remember that ride across Kansas when the sun hung low in the sky to create your own shadow that stretched 30 yards across the highway into the next field? Your shadow followed you, delighted you and in the end, when the sun burned into the western sky, you found yourself missing its magic—when your shadow suddenly vanished—poof! Yet, the memory delighted you!

How about that moment this summer, pedaling with your friend on East River Road along the Yellowstone River, Montana headed south toward Yellowstone National Park? The western sky burned scorching orange colors into the thunderheads in the heavens at the end of the day. You felt a slight mist of rain falling lightly on your shoulders. As you raised your eyes to the east, a double rainbow touched down where the sun blazed on a 100-acre meadow of summer green. Talk about magical moments!

“Don, look to the East,” I yelled.

“Holy catfish,” my friend said. “My God! It doesn’t get any better than this!”

“Can any greater joy come from life than living inside the ‘moment’ of an adventure? It may be a fleeting ‘high’, a stranger that changes your life, an animal that delights you or frightens you, a struggle where you triumphed, or even failed, yet you braved the challenge. Those moments present you uncommon experiences that give your life eternal expectation. That’s adventure!” Frosty Wooldridge, on tour, Lewis and Clark Trail

It’s summer! Let’s go on some adventures!

Eudaimonia—“A Greek term often translated as “happiness” or “flourishing,” represents a state of living well and doing well, which is the ultimate goal in Aristotelian ethics. It’s not merely a fleeting feeling of pleasure, but rather a deep sense of well-being and purpose that comes from living a virtuous life, aligning actions with one’s true values and potential.”

Aristotle spoke about it being “a moment of happiness.” In Johnathan Living Seagull, Richard Bach wrote, “You will begin to touch heaven, Jonathan, in the moment that you touch perfect speed. And that isn’t flying a thousand miles an hour, or a million, or flying at the speed of light. Because any numbers is a limit, and perfection doesn’t have limits. Perfect speed, my son, is being there.” Buddha spoke about it as ‘Satori’ or that ‘instant of perfection.’ Those who smoke mind-altering drugs call it being ‘high.’ The Dali Lama said, “People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they’re not on your road doesn’t mean they’ve gotten lost.”

While riding my bike, eudaimonia strikes me at the most felicitous of times. It could be sunny, rainy, cold, hot, hilly or flat-as-a-pancake riding. Eudaimonia might strike during the spring, summer, fall or winter while riding my bike. For certain, it can hit you during your rides on your bicycle, or backpacking, or skiing, or rafting, or anything out in the wilds. How many “perfect moments” have you journaled in your own travels? What epic moments changed your life? What profound ideas sat on your shoulders while pedaling your bike? It’s a bet that you could write your own stories.

One time, while on tour around Lake Superior in the autumn, Doug and I wrote our colorful bicycle jerseys through the fall colors. We pedaled on the southern shore of the lake, which featured endless miles of red, crimson, pink, purple, lavender, topaz, green orange and stunning combinations in the underbrush. At one point, we stopped to take pictures. A couple of fishermen drove up in their pickup truck.

“What are you guys doin’?” the driver asked.

“We’re riding our bikes around Lake Superior for the next three weeks,” Doug said.

“On bikes?” The other guy said…“For me, no motor, no fun!”

“That goes for me, too,” the driver said. “You guys would be better off on motorcycles.”

“You know the old saying…different strokes for different folks,” said. Doug.

“Suit yourselves,” the driver said, before blasting away.

Once again, the woods quieted. The air stilled. The leaves rustled in the slight breeze. The sun shone down through the cornucopia of colors while a bluesy overdosed us. Through the myriad of maple, oak, poplar and spruce trees, the crystalline waters of Lake Superior shimmered with millions of diamonds. For us, the quietude served our spirits and calmed our souls.

At that moment, a hummingbird, mistaking my jersey for a flower, flew right to within 12 inches of my face. He looked at me as if he might find nectar from one of the flowers on my jersey. His wings beat at 72 times per second. He hovered for five seconds, eyeball-to-eyeball with me. Not seeing an opening of a flower, he gave his little motor chirp, and vanished as quickly as he appeared. The woods swallowed him into its grand scheme.

“Man,” I said to Doug. “Did you see that little guy?”

“Sure did,” Doug said. “Pure Magic! He thought you were a wildflower.”

“It doesn’t get any better than this,” I said. “As the man said, ‘no motor, no fun.’ Let’s try to do the best we can without motors.”

Another ride up to Splugen Pass in the Italian Alps, my friend Gary Hall, sat on his bike guzzling his water bottle. As he finished, a metallic-blue-winged butterfly landed on his finger. It sat there for 30 seconds, flapping its wings in a kind of dance. We both watched it in wonder as to why it hand landed on Gary’s finger. Seconds. Later, it flew up to his shoulder. Again, it sat there for 15 seconds. From Gary’s shoulder, it flew up the mountain and vanished into a field of wildflowers.

Another time, in fact, last summer, on Route 287 in Montana, as we started out in the morning, a golden eagle with an 8-foot wingspan. Leaped right out of the bush beside the road and flew at eye level not 20 feet in front of us. The rising sun caught his underbelly so brightly that we watch his muscles ripple as his wings beat. We watched the sheer energy of this magnificent flying miracle in action. Down the road that day, the image of his muscles working under his feathers and the sun bouncing off his body continued to amaze me. David and I talked about that moment for the rest of the day. And, we will take about it around the campfire to others in the coming years.

There’s some kind of ‘eudaimonia’ moment awaiting anyone on a bicycle, carry a backpack, scuba diving, windsurfing, and/or rafting through the wilderness. Any moment in the wilds can stun you with incredible “perfection.”

Some of those moments might dramatic such as the bear-moose event I lived through up in the Yukon Territory years ago. Others might be as serene as watching a beaver cross a pond on his way to his lodge at sunset. I will always remember that V-wake behind him as the sun sparkled off ripples he created on his journey home.

John. Muir said it best, “How many hearts with warm red blood in them are beating under cover of the woods, and how many teeth and eyes are shining? A multitude of animal people, intimately related to us, but of whose lives we know almost nothing, are as busy about their own affairs as we are about ours.”

Hopefully, you ride your bike into ‘eudaimonia’ moments that bring a smile to your soul, face or spirit. Each eudaimonia instant offers you creative engagement, emotional uplift and a sense of your common bond with all. Life on this planet. Let’s make the ‘Roaring Twenties’ of the 21st century a bicycle phenomenon for all people on Earth.

The adage goes, “Time heals all things/wounds.”

Let’s take a step back concerning that statement.

“The phrase “time heals all wounds/things“ suggests that time lessons pain over time. While it’s a common saying, it’s not always accurate, as some emotional wounds can linger or even worsen without active healing efforts. Time can dull the pain and provide perspective, but it doesn’t automatically resolve deep emotional wounds. True healing often requires conscious effort, self-reflection, and sometimes professional support,” says Psychology Today.

A week ago or so ago, the psychopath killer Bryan Kohberger, who slit the throats of those four college kids in Moscow, Idaho—found himself in a 8’ by 10’ by 12’ prison cell for the rest of his life. I sat listening to the “victims impact statements’ of the family members with tears streaming down my face the whole time.

He destroyed four lives in the spring of their years. He destroyed eight parents. He destroyed dozens of friends of those college kids. He destroyed the emotions of relatives, college instructors and worse—-he destroyed those four kids’ future husbands and wives, their kids, the jobs they would have worked, the travel, the joy of being alive.

Kohberger did a number on my emotions because I’ve lost friends and family members to early death. I’ll bet he did the same to you. The sheer senselessness and horror of his actions defy a sane person’s imagination. While he sits and rots in that jail cell for the next 50 years, his life grows more meaningless and vacant with every minute of every day. How did such a monster ever set foot on this planet?

Will time heal all wounds? From my perspective, not a chance. The pain he inflicted on those kids, their families, and even the nation will remain as a life-long “dagger” in everyone’s hearts.

But then, here in Denver, Colorado, I witnessed the slaughter of innocents at Columbine High School over 26 years ago. Those two walking “insane asylum” teenagers destroyed lives and families that reaches into today because “time heals all wounds” doesn’t really soothe anyone’s painful experiences of that day.

Then, you look at another Denver tragedy when a shooter walked into a movie theater to shoot 12 dead and injure 70 others. None of the living will ever recover from that horror.

And then, December 14, 2012, look back at the parents of those 20 kids and four adults at Sandy Hook Elementary who suffered death at the hands of a mentally sick kid with an automatic weapon. I would be interested in the long-term pain those victims’ parents and friends still suffer today.

Just this week, a nutcase drove from Las Vegas to New York City to kill four people in cold blood. It makes you sick to your stomach that so many “crazy people” walk around shooting up and destroying countless lives.

Over the 4th of July weekend in Chicago, 55 shootings with 6 dead, or maybe more after they didn’t survive surgery. It’s nuts!

Why does this bother me?

At my age of 17, my father died of a heart attack at his youthful age of 46. It devastated me. It changed my personality. It changed my life. It wrecked my sister and did a number on one of brothers. We were doing our lives with paper routes, school, baseball, basketball, and football. We played golf, tennis, bowling and canoeing. All of a sudden, I come home in April of 1964 with a whole bunch of cars in the front of our house. My Dad’s best friend took me aside, “Frosty, I’ve got bad news…your father died umping behind the plate at the Albany game…I’m so sorry.”

My world collapsed. My understanding of life disintegrated. My concept of myself in the world spun into tears, debilitating crying and horrific heartache. My brothers and sister cried all night. I hit the bunk totally numb. In the morning, I woke with my brain burning with pain. My body didn’t know what was happening. Thank my mother for her courage to keep moving forward.

At the funeral, they put him in a casket and I was forced to walk through to see him dead. I have never attended an open-casket funeral again. I would rather remember my friends and family alive in my mind rather than “dead” in a casket.

Back in 1964, no grief counselors. I staggered into each new day with a kind of “dread” that I cannot explain. Just a deep, painful kind of emotional poison that pervaded every cell in my body. I was sick, sad, hurt, and completely a victim of death visiting at my doorstep in my young life.

It still pains me when I visit my Dad’s gravesite at the Rose Lake Cemetery in LeRoy, Michigan. I just break down and cry my eyes out. My father was SUCH a good man, good father, good human being.

So, when I see all these killings in our society today, I KNOW that every family that suffers a loss of a mother, father, friend, sister, or brother—it’s horrible, sad and, guess what, “Time does not heal all wounds.”

What do I do to keep my life, mind and emotions in balance?

At first, I staggered through each day. I discovered that nobody else cares that your parent died. Everyone else faces their own challenges each day. Some fathers beat their kids. Other parents verbally degrade their kids. Some parents ignore their kids. In the inner city, you’ve got drug use, incest, alcohol, and the TV “parents” millions of kids. Today, the cell phone has become the new parent. We no longer see, “Father Knows Best” TV shows. Today, it’s “Love after Lockup.” Which is about the MOST sickening, stupid and ridiculous show on television! You’ve got to lower your IQ below 60 to watch it.

As time passed, I attended college. I booked seven days a week. I decided to make my Dad proud. I carried his picture in my wallet. I wrote letters to him. I wrote letters to my Mom. I made the Dean’s List often.

While “time” lets the pain subside, 61 years later, I still cry over my father’s early death. He didn’t get to see me become the man he was raising. He didn’t get to see me become a world explorer or an author of two dozen books. He didn’t get to meet my wife. I didn’t get to see him grow old with my mother.

And yet, I say “Hi” to his 8”X10” picture in my office each day. I surround his picture with my adventure pictures so he can enjoy me standing on the Wall of China, scuba diving the Galapagos Islands, working and living in Antarctica, riding my bicycle across six continents.

My father was an average man, yet he is a tower of excellence that gave me the courage to live a spectacular life.

For you, reading this commentary, I hope you have survived the loss of a parent or friend. I wish you to experience all the infinite joys and disappointments in life, and simply keep moving forward. Life takes courage. I wish you courage, forgiveness, happiness, health, joy, love and understanding.

You see adults and teens staring down at their cell phones at every conceivable location in the world. You may see them tapping on their cell phones at bus stops, in the park, while riding their bicycles, while skiing, in the weight room, at the pool, on the beach, while attending a lecture, in church, in classrooms…virtually everywhere in America and around the world.

Cell phones may prove more deadly than the Bubonic Plague of the 14th century.

“The Black Death was the bubonic plague pandemic that occurred in Europe from 1346 to 1353. It was one of the most fatal pandemics in human history; as many as 50 million people perished, perhaps 50 percent of Europe’s 14th century population.”

Today, “Currently, more than half of US teens spend an average of 7 hours and 22 minutes of daily screen time on their cellphones.” The other 50 percent spend anywhere from an hour to five hours. The horrific use and hours of cellphone usage may prove to “kill” normal thought processes, creative ideas, critical thinking, rational understanding and common sense.

In other words, cellphones and social media addict children and adults to a life of staring into a small screen…with nothing to show for it…nothing gained from it…and, an astounding waste of 40 to 50 hours a week. It ruins workplace productivity. It also degrades interpersonal relationships and one-on-one communication, and community among humans beings.

It’s pretty deadly, too. One of my colleagues crossed Broadway Blvd in Denver while tapping away on his cellphone. He wasn’t looking for traffic. A car ran over him. He now lives in his wheel chair with brain damage that dropped his mind to about a five year old.

As reported on the news (The Middle), a high school teacher suffered when one of her students took a picture of her in class, and then, converted it to AI that rendered her as a nude Playboy model. Then, he circulated it to the entire school. She was devastated! She resigned and may never recover from the trauma. What happened to the student? Nothing. What happened to the teacher? Her life-path drastically and tragically changed for the worse.

While I taught school in the 70’s through the 90’s, students passing notes made for a tiny distraction in my classrooms. Today, those same students in their classrooms watch Netflix movies, play games, watch pornography, and generally pay little attention to their teachers. Thus, they fail to learn math, science, history, writing, chemistry, biology, computer science, art and physical education. Or, they become mediocre students with a mediocre life in front of them.

Another issue surfaces called, “Text Neck”, as reported by chiropractors across the nation. A healthy human being enjoys a “C curve” from his or her 5 cervical vertebra in his or her necks. But when a person spends seven hours a day with his or her head bent down, they destroy the “C curve” by straightening it out. You’ve probably seen old people whose neck forces their heads forward with a straight extension. They’ve lost their “C curve.” It messes with their nerve impulses that direct the body’s functions.

Additionally, when I hit the weight room six days a week, I have to wait for teens tapping on their cellphones while resting on the sitting benchpress, sitting on the lat pull-down, sitting on the sit-up machine, sitting on the curling machine, and sitting on the quad machine. They sit and tap up to 10…even 15 minutes. Once I asked a teen to let me use the benchpress after he had been tapping for 10 minutes. He said, “Dude, I’m between sets…don’t get your pants in a twist.” Not wanting to get really p*ssed off, I just walked away. I don’t care to get into confrontation in the weight room. I’m there to exercise and work my body…not get into a conflict with an addicted cellphone user.

At the same time, I tried to get cellphones banned from the weight room. That didn’t work, either. It’s a different world where etiquette has been replaced by arrogance, and/or self-importance. It’s going to be interesting how it’s all going to work out in the coming years.

As reported, texting while driving caused: “In 2024, distracted driving, including texting while driving, continued to be a significant safety concern in the US, contributing to thousands of deaths and injuries. Approximately 3,000 deaths and over 400,000 injuries were attributed to texting while operating a vehicle.” I actually saw a bus driver texting while driving once in Denver traffic. I reported the bus, the time and plates. They wanted a picture…which I didn’t have because I was driving my motorcycle at the time. Tell me that 3,000 annual deaths and 400,000 injuries don’t add up to another form of “Black Death.”

“In the U.S., there are approximately 372,682,000 cell phones in use, according to World Population Review in 2022. This number represents a significant portion of the population, with a large percentage of Americans owning smartphones. A Pew Research Center report indicates that 98% of Americans own a cellphone of some kind, with 91% of those being smartphones.”

In other words, the Black Brain Death of children and adults in the 21st century may be greater than the Black Death of the 14th century.

When you look at how it’s twisting our young peoples’ minds, will it not change the way they operate in the world? Will they enjoy learning how to think critically? Will they learn reasoning? How will their bodies be healthfully sustained? Will they develop common sense? How will they learn to communicate beyond speaking to an AI girlfriend or boyfriend who isn’t real? What about their physical well-being? What about the mass shootings in schools?

If you read Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, or George Orwell’s 1984, I think young Americans and America are tripping into an entirely new “Black Death” that’s killing our young peoples’ minds. It’s also affecting their bodies with horrific consequences such as obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease from eating junk foods, no exercise, and mental/emotional problems exploding our teen suicide rates.

At some point, we need to get out in front of the “Black Death” of the 21st century: Cellphones and Social Media.

What are my solutions?

♦ No child needs a cellphone before the age of 18. Make them pay for their own cellphone after age 18.
♦ All cellphones should be banned from high schools. Either check them at the door or don’t bring them to school.
♦ No cell phone use while driving. Make the fine for driving while texting $10,000.00 on first offense, and $20,000.00 on second offense, and loss of license for five years on third offense. If that doesn’t do it, for a 4th offense, loss of license for life.
♦ If parents allow a cellphone, they must buy blockers from pornography sites, from violent movies, from violent apps, and anything that would be detrimental to their children’s minds.

Finally, if parents are too stupid or careless, it’s anyone’s guess as to who their children will kill while texting, or become perverts, or school shooters, or commit some crime they learned from their cellphones.

I’m sure I haven’t covered all the solutions. What other factors did I miss? What are your solutions so that I may write a Part 2 for this series? We, as a society, NEED to address this “Black Mind Death” of the 21st century before it destroys any chance for normalcy, decency and commonality for all Americans.

Encephalopathy refers to a broad range of conditions that affect brain function, causing neurological symptoms. It’s not a single disease but rather a syndrome resulting from different underlying causes. These causes can include infections, metabolic issues, toxins, brain injury, or other systemic conditions. Symptoms can range from mild cognitive changes to severe neurological deficits, including confusion, memory loss, seizures, and even coma.

Cassius Clay, a.k.a., Muhammed Ali, one of the greatest boxers in modern history, lived the last 25 years of his life in chronic pain, onset Parkinson’s Disease, trembling limbs, inability to speak and suffered from dementia.

Once the talk of the world, he enjoyed good looks, an awesome 6’3” 220 pound physique, and lightning speed. He also sported a limited 78 IQ. While he enjoyed incredible attention, he suffered intellectual challenges.

“It is widely cited that Muhammad Ali scored a low IQ on a US Army entrance exam in the 1960s. Some sources state the score was as low as 68, while others say 78 or 83.”

While he commanded millions of dollars and millions of adoring fans, his finances hit bottom to the point he had to fight Larry Holmes who was 20 years younger, bigger and even more powerful. Holmes used Ali’s head for a speed bag during the fight. It proved a sad ending to Ali’s fabulous life. Ali lived the last 25 years of his life in utter misery.

Joe Frasier, one of Ali’s contenders, could not put two sentences together at the end of his life. In fact, most fighters who remain in the ring, live their lives with CTE or Chronic Trauma Encephalopathy. Debilitating, painful, dementia, misery.

Today, we see kick-boxing cage fighting. Those guys and gals literally knock the stuffings out of each other’s brains. If you’ve ever seen a fight, it’s quite sickening to see their heads rock back from the blows. You have to be a sadist to see the human destruction of another human being. It’s a blood sport.

Yet, like the Romans at the Coliseum, where 1.0 million men met their bloody deaths, and 3.0 million animals were slaughtered to the delight of the barbarian crowds, Americans love to see physical damage onto another human being.

That’s why the National Football League enjoys 80,000 to 100,000 modern day spectators or “fanatics” to pay huge money to watch gladiators tear into each other with incredible violence. The greater the collisions, the more the crowd roars. When someone is knocked out of the game, another gladiator comes into to take his place. The crowd could care less as to who gets hurt or how badly.

Consequentially, 92 percent of professional football players suffer from CTE. They suffer onset dementia, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. The average death for pro football players is 59 years.

“The average lifespan of a former NFL player is reportedly 59.6 years, which is significantly lower than the average lifespan of an American male, which is 76.3 years. Another study found that former NFL players die about 7 years earlier than former MLB players. This shorter lifespan is linked to higher rates of brain and heart disease, especially among those who played as linemen.”

The more an athlete gets his or her brains bashed in, the sooner they suffer dementia, Parkinson’s, tremors, and CTE. One of football’s greats from the Dallas Cowboys, Tony Dorsett, suffers horrible late-in-life consequences to his brain and body.

The Patriots’ famous tight end, Rob Gronkowski, at 6’7” 260 pounds, suffered 22 major concussions in his life. Even Tom Brady suffered hundreds of “sub-concussions” in his storied career. It’s going to be interesting how the last 1/3 of their lives will turn out after they turn 50.

The same goes for all the kids playing soccer when they use their heads, called “heading”, to hit the ball toward a team mate. With repeated “headings” as a young child, that young person faces damage to their developing brains. The more they play, the greater the damage.

With hockey, we’re talking tremendous brain damage when players get “checked.” Such hits from 230 pound hockey players rattles a person’s brain inside their heads. The damage multiplies over the years.

Parents need to examine how they want their kids’ lives to progress. Any and all contact sports where a person’s brain gets “hammered” repeatedly, need to be examined.

From own experience, I played Little League football, high school, and into college. I played at Michigan State at 6’2” 195 pounds, split end, fast with excellent hands. I used to get pounded on the practice squad with 6’8”, 280 pound Bubba Smith. I used to try to block him at his shoe laces so I would not get forearmed. My speed and size didn’t mean much in the Big Ten because there was always someone bigger, faster and meaner. In my junior, I got knocked out and in a coma for two days. I tried to cross body block a 240 pound linebacker, but I hit his up and coming knee. My helmet flew off and my body went limp. I woke up in the hospital two days later. That was the last time I suited up.

What am I saying? If you’re a parent, you might think twice before sending your child into a contact sport. Since I suffered that head trauma in college, I took up racquetball, tennis, bicycle racing, triathlons, mountain biking, swimming, squash, running, skiing, badminton, bowling, pickleball, rafting, rowing, weight lifting, dancing, and another dozen non-contact sports. I’ve enjoyed myself, played my heart out, won a few, lost a few…and thankfully, I can speak, write, talk, think, and still play all those sports.

In this life, there is nothing more important than your health. Money, fame, status mean nothing if you lack good health. You need to eat right to keep slim, such as the Mediterranean Diet, exercise one hour daily, maintain your spiritual balance whether church or meditation, and keep learning. As President Thomas Jefferson said, “I cannot live without books.” Hang with healthy friends, maintain purpose, laugh a lot, and be thrilled that you’re living a gracious, productive, happy and fulfilling life. Our lives are a one-time miracle in this universe. Make the very best of yours. Life and light, Sandi and Frosty Wooldridge

Right now, in Washington DC, we’ve got politicians like Charles Schumer, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, Maxine Waters, Cory Booker, Hakeem Jeffries, Ilhan Omar, Jasmine Crockett, Van Hollen, and Rashida Tlaib advocating for violence against America’s police officers. They are advocating for millions of illegal aliens instead of American citizens. They advocate for lawlessness. They urge democrat followers to go out and “get shot and bleed” in order to stop ICE agents from doing their jobs.

It’s beyond comprehension that every one of those vacant-minded, duplicitic and totally out-of-touch-with-reality politicians didn’t speak up once in four years against Biden’s handlers as they encouraged, invited, and supported 12 to 21 million unvetted, criminal, and illiterate illegal aliens to cross our borders. The White House even gave them “Apps” to speed their entry illegally into America.

Never mind the fact that NONE of those senators or House Members honored their oath of office to uphold our U.S. Constitution. U.S. Code 8, Section 1324, 1325, 1326 specifically gives ICE agents the ability to arrest and deport illegal aliens.

Breaking into our country is the same as someone breaking into your home. It’s illegal. It’s criminal. There are no excuses. Our laws provide our safety as citizens to live in our own homes without threat that someone can break into our homes and make us feed, water and provide for them.

And yet, all those aforementioned elected officials support illegal aliens. Then, you drop down to Governors New York’s Kathy Hochul, California’s Gavin Newsom, and Illinois’ J.B. Pritkzer—they are all breaking our laws. Drop further down to Chicago’s Mayor “Intellectually Deficient” Johnson, or NYC’s Mayor Adams, and LA’s Mayor “Moron” Karen Bass—-and you’ve got a bunch of lawless, idiotic, and truly stupid leaders. They’re the same ones that support men competing in women’s sports.

Last week, LA’s Mayor Bass, who watched her city burn down because she set the benchmark for incompetence—promised to pay illegal aliens a stipend to stay in their illegal housing apartments. She should be arrested and prosecuted. Same with Chicago’s Mayor Johnson! Same with NYC’s Mayor Adams. Same with Denver’s Mayor Johnston.

If all that craziness is not enough, we’ve got a Muslim Communist Democrat vying for mayor of New York City. Zohran Mamdani could turn the world’s most capitalistic city into America’s first Muslim Caliphate. First those Muslims destroyed NYC with 9/11, and now, we could see them voting their Muslim brother into the mayorship of New York City. Don’t laugh. It’s already happened to London, England. Mayor Muslim Kahn runs London like a Muslim caliphate because he’s got the numbers. There are more mosques in London than English churches. Tens of thousands of them stick their rear-ends to the sky in the streets of London five times a day. It’s enough to make you sick to your stomach when you see it personally.

Here’s a cartoon: “lslamophobia: The act for practicing knowledge for self-defense from Islam or a Muslim whose prime directive is, ‘Death to America’. Every American should be an educated Islamophob.” Just remember that 9/11 was only one of their first steps into America. It’s U.S. Senators like Charles Schumer who made sure they enjoyed driver’s licenses that gave them full freedom to carry out their deadly plans. Remember Muhammad Atta…and his Muslim brothers.

Here’s another satire cartoon: Daughter asked, “Mommy, why won’t politicians order the release of the Epstein client list?” Mother replied, “Because they are the clients.”

Another cartoon shows Vladimir Putin of Russia: Psychopath—an animal or person possessing an egocentric and antisocial behavior marked by a lack of remorse for one’s actions. An absence of empathy for others. And, often, criminal tendencies.

A psychopath can decimate whole countries, governments, hospitals, families, men, women, children, farms, friends, ships, airplanes—stomp them dead, and have no remorse, shame or guilt—none at all.

That pretty much sums up Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Hamas, Iran’s Muslims, and Putin. And, the rest of the world sat/sits by while they continue their treachery down through history.

What about the fact that our Congress has allowed China to buy up 277,000 acres of our farmland? How do you get to the bottom of that pile of cow manure?

How is it that Democrat Controlled Congress during Biden’s years allowed Medicaid payments for 1.4 million illegal aliens? Those are your tax dollars.

President Thomas Jefferson said, “The first consideration in immigration is the welfare for the receiving nation. In a new government based on principles new to the rest of the world, and resting on the sentiments of the people themselves, the influx of a large number of new immigrants unaccustomed to the government of a free society, could have detrimental to that society. Immigration, therefore, must be approached carefully and cautiously.”

Since there are now somewhere around 80 to 90 million foreign-born people in America, both legally and illegally living within our country…you’re seeing it play out with attacks on ICE, on 287G, on ATF, Border Patrol and within our cities. We’re seeing our own elected officials turning against our laws. If this kind of “elected lawlessness” continues, we could see America reduced to a “Bananas Republic” with no cohesion, patriotism, no single language, no cohesive culture, no dominant religion and now no sense of responsibility to our Constitution.

If that Communist Muslim Mamdani wins the mayorship of New York City, that’s one more step in losing our country to mass immigration.

You, no doubt, followed the horrific flooding in the Guadalupe River in Kerrville, Texas. Media reports provided the deaths of over 110 people, thus far. During every report, the river rose within an hour to over 28 feet in the dead of night.

Virtually every report brought up the “Climate Change” phenomenon that’s causing such catastrophic weather that’s killing people not only in the USA, but around the world.

If that weather phenomenon proves to be true, we humans face a sobering future. Essentially, “climate change” could wipe out our ability to grow crops. It could wipe out our ability to live in a temperate, stable climate. It could and will, create horrific species extinction rates because plants and animals will not be able to evolve quickly enough.

Each time you hear that “climate change” is causing all these catastrophes, you NEVER hear about the “driver” of climate change. What is that driver? Answer: human overpopulation that adds 83,000,000 (million) more of our species, net gain, every year, year in and year out, decade in and decade out.

And every newly added human will burn fuel to grow crops, grow livestock, transport food, eat those foods, warm their homes, drive cars, buy products that are produced by burning fuels and dozens of other ways to produce carbon footprint from burning fossil fuels. We’re talking millions of tons of carbon gas warming up the planet.

What’s astounding about the entire American media stems from the fact that none of them will educate the American public as to what it faces in the long term. Instead, we just keep packing human beings into America like there’s no tomorrow. Biden invited somewhere between 12 to as high as 21 million illegal aliens. At the same time, we legally added 4,000,000 immigrants in his four years. Then, you start adding their babies, and you’re talking millions more people added to America. Those immigrants, of course, fled their overpopulated countries like Somalia, Congo, Sudan, India, China, Indochina, and the list grows to over 150 countries—that cannot sustain their own populations.

But you won’t hear a peep about it from the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post or Los Angeles Times.

Just keep cramming bodies into America until our carrying capacity collapses.

Thirty years ago, one of my readers wrote me the following letter: As George Sura in Colorado said, “Immigration is the most formidable weapon of mass destruction threatening America today. Ironically, invaders have put our country at risk without firing a shot. The White House, the heavies in Congress and the smaller fish in state legislatures do not seem to have the collective intellectual depth or common sense to see what is upon us and how rampant immigration will degrade the lives and opportunities of our progeny. Every day brings America closer to irreversible chaos. Behind this issue are blind forces to reckon with. No politician, political party, corporation, religious fervor, investment, pop morality or individual aspiration should come before our country. The brokers who recklessly advocate or condone pervasive immigration are steersman with Titanic-like wheelhouse credentials.”

Mr. Sura saw it 30 years ago. I saw it 50 years ago. Top demographers screamed about it during Earth Day 1970. Back then, only 3.5 billion humans lived on planet Earth. Every news outlet reported that we humans were destroying Earth’s balancing systems by burning up the Amazon Rain Forest, the “Lungs of the Earth.” Everyone screamed about plastics polluting everything, but today 170 trillion pieces of plastic overwhelm our oceans according to an NPR report. Another 84,000 chemicals are spewed into the air, land, and water 24/7. We’ve jumped to 8.2 billion humans on this planet in 2025. We humans are accelerating our own collective suicide at an astounding rate of speed.

You cannot help but ask, “How completely stupid are Americans, and how totally stupid is the human race?”

Yours truly has written three sobering books on America’s overpopulation crisis. Immigration’s Unarmed Invasion—Deadly Consequences in 2004…the Eight Ways to Destroy America; America on the Brink—The Next Added 100 Million Americans in 2009, America’s Overpopulation Predicament—Blindsiding Future Generations 2021.

Copies were sent 60 Minutes, NPR, PBS, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, Tucker Carlson, Anderson Cooper, Joe Rogan, Fox News, and dozens of independent networks. Result: not one response. Not one interview offer.

Whether you were affected or not by the tragedy in Kerrville with the flash flooding, do you appreciate that ever greater tragedies will rain-down upon our civilization in the coming years as we grow from 350 million to over 650 million within 75 years by the end of the century? With more people, those tornado’s will kill more people! Is anyone listening the dozens of books written about exhausting all our resources? Have you read Christopher O. Clugston’s: Blip—Humanity’s 300 Year Self-Terminating Experiment with Industrialism.

That book should be a national bestseller. It should be in every college classroom and every boardroom. When will we exhaust our resources? By 2050 or sooner! He documents how we are exhausting water, energy and resources that allow our civilization to thrive. Once we exhaust every resource, our civilization collapses. It’s that God-awful simple. He should be interviewed on every TV network and radio show across America. We either start preparing for what’s coming…or, we become a giant civilization that will suffer the same fate of those people in Kerrville, Texas on the Guadalupe River. It’s that simple. They weren’t prepared for that “climate change” flood, and we are not prepared for what’s coming by 2050.

As a journalist who has visited six continents to see humanity overwhelming this planet’s ability to sustain human life, I can say unequivocally that, “WE ARE NOT PREPARED FOR THE FUTURE!” We’re not prepared for the next 20 years let along when we reach 650 million people in America by the end of the century.

How do you destroy America? One reader said, “Massive numbers of immigrant invaders is one strategy. Destroys national cohesion. Overload our systems.”

As you witnessed those 11 anarchists shooting up ICE officers in Texas, you’re seeing Governor Newsom of California and Los Angeles Mayor Bass defying Federal Law. Both of them are too stupid to address the fact that California races toward adding 20 million more people, net gain, by 2050. Again, as illegal numbers grow, law and order cannot be maintained. At some point, those numbers create a “Hobson’s Choice”, which means there is NO CHOICE!

As our human population numbers explode beyond sustainability, consequences accelerate to their final rendition. Your kids don’t deserve what’s coming.

July 7, 2025

Over the 4th of July weekend, the conservative half of America celebrated the glory of America, the energy of America, the promise of America and the patriotism of America.

The liberal half of America marched against Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. Hundreds yelled out to impeach Trump. Hundreds screamed about Alligator Alcatraz’s cruelty toward illegal alien migrants in the Florida Everglades. Three hots and a cot in an air-conditioned building while awaiting deportation back to their own countries, was, “Cruel and unusual punishment.” Still more liberals burned and spit on Old Glory.

On the good side of America, Joey Chestnut took the national title back by eating 70.5 hotdogs in 10 minutes. How does one man’s stomach tolerate such a hotdog onslaught? Millions raced in 5.0- and 10-kilometer races. Millions more sailed, canoed, kite-surfed, skied, fished and sat on the beaches across America. In most towns across America, Old Glory waved from flagpoles at the front doors of millions of Americans.

Does that mean something’s going on with America that AOC just can’t handle or understand? Does it mean politician Somalian Muslim Ilhan Omar talks through her turban as she trashes America? Does it mean that Maxine Waters ran out of mouth? Does it mean that Nancy Pelosi’s personal fortune buys her more time on this planet? Does it mean that Communist Muslim Sohran Mamdani, an immigrant from Uganda, will be voted mayor of New York City?

You know cartoon satire cuts deep…in fact, it’s the best of the editorial pages.

A guy is reading the paper standing next to Mamdani, “There’s an ad running inviting New York businesses to Pennsylvania if you get elected mayor.” Mandani replied, “Just because I support global extermination of the Jews, Marxism, and taxing white people—shouldn’t be a big deal.” The man with the paper said, “How could that fly in America?” Mamdani said, “I got the vote.”

The guy reading the newspaper replied, “Sure are a lot of dumb people out there.”

“Democrats are worried that Iranian terror sleeper cells will now attack America from within. They are the same democrats who let them into America. The same democrats don’t want you to own guns.”

Walt Disney said, “I’ve been up against tough competition all my life. I wouldn’t know how to get along without it.”

New York’s mayoral candidate Sohran Mamdani asked his enthusiastic supporters, “Who wants free stuff?” Everyone raised their hands. Then he asked, “Who wants to pay for other peoples’ free stuff?” No one raised their hands.

“There are only three requirements for success in this life. First, decide exactly what you want in life. Second, determine the price you’re going to pay to get all the things you want out of life. Third, and this is most important, resolve to pay that price.”

One picture shows the famous, “The Rock” Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay. The second one shows “The Croc” Alcatraz in the Florida Everglades. Which would you pick if you were an illegal alien?

Trump at McDonald’s working the fries, “In 2025, a guy working at McDonald’s changed the world.”

The immigrant Arnold Schwarzenegger on “The View”, said, “If an immigrant comes to America, he or she is a guest, and they need to come here legally. It’s the only way America can survive.”

Ben Franklin said, “The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You must catch it yourself.”

“Why would you invite people into your country with a religion that dictates to them to ‘convert or kill you?”

“What’s a thing that you might have to get after you lose your food stamps?” Answer: a job!

Picture of a bombed train in France, “Islam is mostly a peaceful religion…except when it’s torturing infidels (that’s you), mutilating women, suicide bombing or shooting innocent people, honor killings, decapitations, ambushing neighboring countries or chanting “Death to America.”

Picture of AOC, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, “Iranian sleeper cells located in Congress.”

CNN commentator Van Jones, “Guys, can we cut it out? Trump is not an idiot. Let me make this clear. Trump is smarter than me, you and all his critics. This dude is a phenomenon. He is the most powerful human on Earth and in our lifetimes. We look like idiots.”

Guy flying the Mexican flag from a motorcycle in Los Angeles, “Oh the irony of a man flying a flag from a place he doesn’t want to be sent back to, and destroying the place he doesn’t want to leave.”

“Fire Elizabeth MacDaunaugh. Nobody wants to pay for 1.4 million illegal aliens on Medicaid.”

For certain, satire gets to the underbelly of what’s going on in America: in pictures and phrases.

Do we want illegal alien migrants who have cheated our immigration laws to become members of Congress? Well, Ilhan Omar is one of them. Do we want nutcases like AOC to be leading our country while trashing our country?

Should we tolerate foreign immigrants like Marxist Muslim Sohran Mamdami to run for mayor of New York City? Let’s face it, he’s a Muslim who is avowed to follow his oath, “Death to America.” It’s in his genetic makeup. It’s in his Quran. It’s his “prime directive” to destroy America. Marxism stands against the very foundation of America.

Mamdami, AOC, Mayorkas, Obama, Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, Keith Ellison, Maxine Waters, Presley, Jayapal, and Detroit’s 300,000 Muslim immigrants, along with Minneapolis’ 125,000 Somalian immigrants proves conclusively that we are slowly, yet methodically losing our country to ideological terrorists bent on destroying and/or undermining our U.S. Constitution. You’ve already witnessed what’s happened to Europe. Western Culture has been terminated in country after country in Europe.

We need to take action to stop them before they possess too many of their comrades for us to stop. If you think I’m kidding, just visit Sweden, UK, France, Germany and the rest. There are 10,700 mosques in Europe. No one is safe. Western Culture isn’t safe. None of us are safe from foreign onslaught.

July 4, 2025

Let’s celebrate July 4th because every American lives in the most profoundly fortunate “essential country” in the world. America’s Constitution remains the hallmark for governance on this planet. Every citizen enjoys the freedom to chase his or her dreams, live their lives in peace, and succeed in hundreds of lines of work, play or choices.

Every person in America—-black, white, brown, yellow, or red, might kneel on his or her knees and thank their lucky stars to be living in America.

At the same time, recent polls show 82 percent of conservative Americans love America. An appallingly 64 percent of liberal Americans condemn America. A growing number of youthful Americans hate America. That same group demonstrates against America, spits on Old Glory, burns the Stars and Stripes, and generally shows their unpatriotic feelings toward their own country.

Because of our brilliant, one-of-a-kind, U.S. Constitution, such adverse behavior against America enjoys the freedom to spit-on and burn our flag. Which means they spit on our sacred Constitution.

The question grows: where would you move to enjoy a more satisfying, fulfilling, and happy life? Perhaps North Korea? If you spit-on or burned their flag, you would be executed on the spot. You would live in poverty without choices your entire life. What about moving to Communist China? You would be executed in a heartbeat if you challenged the CCP dictator. You would live among 1.4 billion people, massive pollution, and few choices. What about moving to Russia? You would immediately be conscripted into the Army to fight and die in the Ukraine war.

What about moving to India? You would suffer polluted water, polluted air, scant food, lack of education, rivers that run like sewers to the sea, and 60 percent of Indians lack a toilet let alone water purification systems. Special note: 4,000,000 Indians are born in the streets, live in the streets and die in the streets of the major cities like Mumbai, India. If you ever saw it for yourself, like I have, you would thank God for being born in America.

If you moved to Africa, you would not enjoy a shower, toilet or running water in most of Africa. You would not be able to educate your children as illiteracy is the dominant reality in Africa. You would most likely be embroiled in tribal wars. You would be constantly standing in line for food. You would most likely have been one of the 15 million Africans who died from AIDS because they lack medical, birth control and sanitation to stop the disease. Also, massive illiteracy in Africa remains a steppingstone for major diseases.

What about Mexico or Central America where drug gangs dominate? Why do you think over 25 million illegal aliens who have invaded America didn’t stop in Mexico to enjoy that country’s endless opportunities?

Every time we hear Whoopi Goldberg, a black actor, scream about racism in America, she doesn’t mention that her personal worth of $67 million came from the wallets of all those white people. Self-professed racist LeBron James never mentions that his $1 billion bank account came from white people. We can show that African-Americans appreciate that America houses the MOST black, brown, and yellow millionaires and billionaires on this planet.

For the record, about 4.0 million children die annually of starvation around the world. Another 8.0 million adults die in horrible poverty, annually. Millions of people teeter on the brink of starvation and horrible living conditions. Even the 800,000 homeless in America can tap into food pantries and food kitchens.

So what’s good about America?

What about every kid in America being able to play football, baseball, basketball, tennis, hockey, soccer, swimming, rugby, lacrosse, rodeo, surfing, windsurfing, scuba diving, triathlon and another 100 activities for self-fulfillment.

Everybody may enjoy their own path toward God in thousands of churches that fit their spiritual needs. Even the most despicable and deadly religion on this planet, Islam, enjoys freedom to express itself in America.

Every young person enjoys K-12 education to better their minds, pursue their athletics and become a viable, contributing person in America’s workforce. Such knowledge allows them to earn a job, live in a house or apartment, drive a car, grocery shop and buy merchandise that gives them many choices in life.

Most Americans enjoy fantastic travels around the world by cruise lines, flights, sailboats, backpacking, scuba diving, skiing, bicycle travel—-literally—-just about any choice you might imagine. Americans travel the world. Out of 195 countries in the world, only Western countries afford their citizens the ability to travel around this planet. That’s less than 50 countries!

How about parades? What about rodeos? Anyone stuff themselves at a church social? How about Christmas parades? How about the Thanksgiving Parade in New York City?

In every imaginable path possible, we Americans choose our lives to fit our needs. We can be farmers or lawyers or police officers or mayors of cities. We can become teachers or businesspersons or nurses or run for president of America.

We see every conceivable sport on the planet, including “Curling.” We can mountain bike race in the Leadville 100. We can run across Death Valley. We can kite-surf off Malibu. We can attend the Indy 500 or the Daytona 500.

We enjoy the finest medical care in the world. Our traffic system speeds all of us toward our destinations seven days a week. We enjoy environmental laws to keep our air cleaner, our rain purer, and our eco-systems intact.

We may join every kind of organization such as Lion’s Club, Rotary Club, Scuba Diving Clubs, sky diving clubs, Golf Clubs, and Pickle Ball. How do you beat that in any other country in the world? Answer: you can’t. There is not another country in the world like America for personal opportunity and choices.

Why are we an “essential country?” We command the economics that billions of people around the world rely upon. We buy and sell goods that benefit the world. We are the largest market on the planet. We are innovative, creative, and idealistic.

For certain, this appreciation of America could go on for pages and pages. We’re the luckiest people in the world to live in the land of opportunity. Women enjoy equal footing in the arts, in music, in acting, in sports…thank you Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham, Coco Goff, Serena Williams…and millions of high school and college female stars…thank you Riley Gaines…all the way to female governors, mayors and corporate heads across America.

Thank you to every man and woman who has served our country in the Army, Marines, Navy, Coast Guard and Air Force for the past 250 years. Thank you to all our police officers. Thank you to all our fire fighters. Thank our Constitution for law and order in America.

This July 4th, 2025, let’s raise Old Glory to the sky. Let’s look forward to the “GOOD” of America. Let’s look forward to the “PROMISE” of America. Let’s thank our lucky stars that we live, work and flourish in America.

That thanks comes from a little old farm boy from LeRoy, Michigan.

This past weekend, “Gay Pride” LGBTQ parades flourished in large cities across America.  Approximately 5.5 percent of Americans identify as homosexuals, bisexuals, lesbians, queers, transgenders and other forms of sexual expressions and/or perversions. That equates to around 14 million people who live a lifestyle outside the norms of average American society.

That same group suffers horrific suicide rates: “Among gay or lesbian youth, 37% seriously considered suicide and 19% attempted.”  In other words, such a life-path renders emotional and psychological consequences far beyond “normal” American youth.  If such LGBTQ people lived in Islamic lands, they would suffer decapitation, hung, shot or thrown off a roof to their deaths.

Even in America, such life-choices leave such individuals to live among those like themselves.  Luckily for them, gay cities like San Francisco, and establishments exist where they can express themselves freely.  When it comes to sexually transmitted diseases, such individuals suffer and die in large numbers.

As of the last 10 years, we now stand in the crosshairs of men “identifying” as women in order to compete in women’s sports.  When a rational person tries to make sense of all these “new” abnormalities facing our society, it dawns on the 95 percent of us that live “normal” lives—that these “recent” things of life tilt toward “nuts, crazy, irrational, deranged, insane, and demented.”

When historians write about these abnormal times in the first quarter of the 21st century, it’s going to be interesting how they come to terms with human sexual activities that explode into such parlors as Sean Diddy Combs, the millionaire songster who beat his women, trafficked sexual victims and carried on endless sexual perversions.  He’s now facing life in prison. His fate rests in the hands of a jury.  But if you look out across America’s landscape, there must be hundreds of Sean Diddy Combs carrying on violence against women on multiple levels. About three women die daily from American men beating them to death.  Pretty ugly stuff from American males.

But the latest form of degrading women on a national level must be “transgenderism.”  That’s when biological males that “identify” as women are allowed to compete in women’s sports.  When those DNA men beat the crap out of women, we’re seeing major athletic bodies supporting it. We’re seeing female governors and U.S. Senators supporting it at the national level.  We’re seeing “political correctness” supersede common sense and biology.  We’re seeing the NCAA support the stupidity and arrogance of transgender men pretending to be women.  It wouldn’t be so bad if those “men” stayed in their own sports gender.  

But because they are mentally ill or psychologically arrogant, they actually step into a girl’s swimsuit, testicles and all, and out-swim the females so they can stand on a podium with a gold medal that should announce them as a “Gold Mental Nut Job.”  

Same goes in volleyball with that one DNA male who hit a girl so hard with a spike, that she suffered a severe concussion, brain damage and lost her chance at the professional level. Yet, “he” got away with it.

All the while, you don’t see DNA transgender males competing against women in professional tennis or skiing.  Why’s that?  Crowds would “boo” them off the court!

It’s way past time that more rational and logical men and women in America in high schools and colleges…stand up, speak out, and take action against the insanity of “transgenders” competing out of their biological lane.  

Like those two girls who Boycotted the podium at a recent high school track meet, or the female fencer who refused to compete against the DNA male fencer—-every female athlete needs to Boycott any event where a DNA male attempts to compete.

If those transgender “guys” want to compete fairly, they and their supporters need to create the National Collegiate Transgender Athletic Association.  They can create their own events with their own rules.  They could promote every “he” to compete in every “she” event.  They could promote every “she” in every “he” event.  Makes sense, doesn’t it?

Finally, in the end, such arrogant men like William “Lia” Thomas, a male swimmer with a ranking of 492 in men’s college swimming, would be able to swim in a girl’s bathing suit along with 10 other “guys” in women’s bathing suits.  You just have to wonder who would watch such a contest?

Or, how about that volleyball player smashing women’s heads off?  He could wear a padded bra to show his athletic abilities in a fair and equitable contest with his peers, their equals, and their biological mates. Wouldn’t that be a show with DNA male volleyball players wearing padded bras on both sides of the net?  Not only would they be able to “identify” as women, they could look like women, wigs, tampons, padded bras, et al.  I’m sure volleyball crowds would pay top dollar to see such a show.

Maybe at some point our latest Supreme Court female Justice Jackson could finally define a woman. Or, she could return to her 10th grade high school biology course to discover her own biology. She certainly got educationally “spanked” by fellow Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett in the latest ruling. In the end, D.E.I. gets exposed for what it really is: affirmative action failing to measure up.

Or, what about that DNA male fencer parrying and thrusting with another DNA “guy” pretending to be a female to show his “feminine” side?  Maybe they both could wear padded bras to show their femineity.

When the historians write about the absurdities, insanities, and the idiosyncrasies of the first quarter of 21st century America, they’ll be laughing to themselves or crying as to how humans could become so deranged, mad and insipidly stupid? 

Hopefully, no DNA men want to go up against Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham and Lexie Hull.  We want full-blown, all female super stars out on the court. Can I hear an “A-men!”

Finally, When Is A “He” A She & A “Her” A He?  Answer: AIN’T NO SUCH BIOLOGICAL ANIMAL!

If you search the Internet as to the collective IQ’s of countries around the world, you’ll notice that the most successful countries enjoy average IQ’s over one-hundred. The further down the intelligence quotient ladder you descend, the worse the conditions of that country.

You may check the collective IQ of every country in the world.

If you look at the Republic of Congo, you see their population averages 63. Somalia averages 67.7. China enjoys 107. Guinea 53.5. United States at 99.7. Most of Canada, Australia and Europe at 100 plus.

When you look at all the countries of the world, it’s a good bet that the most successful countries enjoy an average IQ of over 100. The lower down the scale, the lesser the quality of life, the lesser their standards, the lesser their education levels, and the worse the general lives of the citizens of that country.

As an educator in the early 1970’s through the 1990’s, I taught in the inner city to discover that IQ made all the difference in the world as to the engagement of the parents and the success of their children. College educated parents engaged their kids in school, and attended parent teacher meetings. High school dropout kids’ parents could not be bothered.

After fleeing the inner city, I taught in an average middle class school system in Denver. Many of the kids arrived from college educated parents. Others enjoyed high school educated parents.

High-performing students enjoyed incredible comprehension of math, science, chemistry, algebra, history and language. Their IQ’s ran from 105 (bright) to 120 (very bright). Several of my students over the years enjoyed over 130 IQ’s. With each point in IQ, the student commanded all subjects and enjoyed top grades. They advanced to successful lives.

Is it fair that some are smart while others struggle? That’s the way it is in academics. It’s the same in athletics. Those 6’6” basketball players are the ones that win scholarships. Those 6’6” and 250 pound linebackers enjoy free college educations. The fastest track students also enjoy scholarships. Top swimmers that fly through the pool waters enjoy the Olympics and a free ride through college.

It’s the same in the movies. Brad Pitt’s handsome good looks landed him a fabulous life in Hollywood with leading ladies. Marilyn Monroe remains an icon 60 years after her death. Buxom and dazzling good looks gave her an amazing life.

To be sure, life is unfair as it doles out good looks and bodies to some people, but the rest of us must deal with our average brains, average bodies and average lives. Thankfully, we live in America or Western free countries where you may seize equal opportunity because of free enterprise and creativity. Many times, “effort and gumption” trump brain power.

But when it comes to politics here in the United States, we’re got to do something about electing dingbats and gross incompetence among those who are charged with making our laws.

Right now, for 2028, democrats are promoting for president of the USA, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, (D-NY), a totally intellectually vacant dingbat in the House of Representatives. Her district is decimated with crime, drugs, illegals, trash, rats, unemployment and filth. She couldn’t pass an 9th grade Algebra I class if her life depended on it. If you look at her podcasts, you see someone as self-absorbed and dumb as a turtle on a fencepost. She’s on that fencepost, but no one knows how she got there.

Then you’ve got another dingbat in Jasmine Crockett, (D-TX) in the House of Representatives. She’s being touted as AOC’s running mate. Like AOC, this lady is dumber than a fencepost. And yet, democrats are promoting her to become VP for the 2028 presidential ticket with AOC. May the Good Lord help us if those two ever reached the White House.

One look at California and you’ve got 30-year veteran in the House, Maxine Waters, the dingbat of dingbats, who does nothing for over 175,000 homeless in her district, and not one single solution to California’s unbelievable nightmare of drugs, illegals, crime, failing schools and sheer breakdown of society.

One look at the foreign dingbat of the year with a documented IQ of 67.7 is Somalian born Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who immigrated to America, married her brother, cheated our immigration laws, and yet, she’s in the House of Representatives as she subverts our Constitution. That lady stated that we are the worst country in the world. She represents 125,000 other Somalians with an average IQ of 67.7. Over 90 percent of them are still on welfare after 10 years in America. They lack any drive to become educated because they simply lack the intelligence to care about education.

One look at Hank Johnson, (D-GA), shows you a dingbat who stated on the Congressional Record that the Island of Guam would tip over if too many more people ran to one side of the island. Last week, he pretended to play a guitar and sing about impeaching Trump for destroying Iran’s ability to build nuclear bombs. Johnson should be impeached for being so stupid that he doesn’t know that he’s THAT stupid. He couldn’t pass a 6th grade geography course. Yet, he’s voting on laws that affect all Americans.

Yes, there are another dozen U.S. Senators and House Members that are as useless as lipstick on a pig…but they show their stupidities, and incompetent uselessness at every juncture. Either they are dumb, or stupid, or useless because of their low IQ’s. Or their stupidity by adhering to their liberal ideology.

Therefore, we need to pass a bill in Congress that anyone running for highest offices in the land needs at least a 105 to 110 IQ in order to comprehend what’s going on in the world. That way, we would stand a chance that our elected officials actually know what they are doing. Again, the most successful countries enjoy higher IQ’s throughout their common citizens.

When it comes to mass immigration out of those third world countries, we would be much wiser to accept only individuals with minimum IQ’s of 100 or higher.

We also need to accept people with compatible cultural and religious backgrounds that are in line with our country.

Otherwise, we’re seeing our standards dumbed down. We’re talking about standards of hygiene, personal grooming, and pride in self. Have you seen teen suicide rates lately? We’re seeing our schools dumbed down to the point of illiteracy for millions of kids. We’re seeing the quality of our work spiraling down the drain. We’re seeing a loss of pride and loyalty to our country. We’re seeing a breakdown in the cohesiveness of the fabric of America.

If you disagree with this commentary, please give me some ideas on how we can make America better. How can we escape dingbats like AOC, Maxine Waters, Rashida Tlaib, Hank Johnson, Jasmine Crockett and many more? Would you not agree that we need academic standards and IQ tests passed by our national leaders. Or, do you want dumb people managing our national affairs?

Born out of the 6th century in the desert sands of the Middle East: a violent, illiterate, deadly, and rapist tribesman named Muhammed created the cruelest religion on planet Earth. It has ravaged men, women, children and animals ever since.

If you read the Quran, you see that it commands its followers to “Convert or kill all non-believers.” It commands its male followers to martyr themselves in the name of Allah in order to enjoy 72 virgins in the afterlife. Its violence toward animals via torture is profoundly sickening.

Its violence to its women, as reported by the United Nations, equates to 20,000 honor killings annually…right up into the 21st century. If you breathe the wrong thought or action, a father or husband will kill his wife or daughter. Its violence to female babies with female genital mutilation must be the cruelest of its many cruelties.

“The Quran has 123 verses that call for fighting and killing anyone who does not agree with the statement, “There is no God but Allah and Mohammed is his prophet.” Jews and Christians are specifically included among such “infidels.” The Quran’s Sura 5:33 says about infidels, “They shall be slain or crucified, or have their hands and feet cut off.” Sura 9:5 says, “Slay the infidels wherever you find them … and lie in wait for them … and establish every stratagem (of war against them).” Sura 47:4-9 promises paradise to whoever cuts off the head of an infidel.”

Over the weekend, President Trump bombed three major nuclear enrichment sites in Iran in order to take out their ability to produce a nuclear bomb. Why did he do it?

If you look back at 1983 with 241 U.S. Marines, Navy and French peace keepers that got bombed to death in Beirut, Lebanon—you understand that Muslims will do anything to kill the infidels. That’s you and that’s me.

If you look at their deadly attacks at the 1972 Olympics as they executed 11 Jews, you understand that Muslims are as sick and single-minded as the Nazi’s under Hitler. They kill without emotional or mental or rational thought. That guy who shot and killed the Jewish couple only weeks ago in Washington DC illustrates their lust for death to a point of being psychopathic. That one Muslim U.S. Army major shot up our soldiers in Texas. Another father killed his two daughters for wearing jeans in South Carolina. One Muslim father shot his daughter in her sleep in Ohio. Another Muslim-American ran over his wife and daughter in Arizona for being “too Westernized.” They followed the deadly dictates of the Quran.

Therefore, Islam is a psychopathic religion: “Psychopathy is a personality disorder characterized by a specific set of dysfunctional traits, including a lack of empathy and remorse, impulsivity, manipulativeness, and deceitfulness.”

What does that reality mean when it comes to the WORST terror-sponsoring country in the world—-IRAN?

What do they chant by the tens of thousands in the streets of Tehran? They scream, “Death to America…Death to Israel.” We are The Great Satan to them.

If given the chance and/or the ability, they would kill every last Jewish person on this planet. They would exterminate every last American. That’s how Islam works. That word means: submission. In other words, once you accept Islam, you submit to everything in its dictates. You may kill your daughter or wife because it’s mandated by the Quran if that female should cross you. Your wife submits to being 1/2 the value of a man. Women do not possess any rights in Islam. Their sickening treatment of animals for “Halal” meats turns a First World person’s stomach. Their cruelty to animals exceeds anything you can imagine. If you ever leave that religion, they put out a “fatwa” on you—-to have their henchmen kill you.

“Islamist terrorist attacks (1979-2024): According to one source, at least 249,941 people have died in Islamist terrorist attacks worldwide during this period. Fondapol recorded 66,872 attacks during this time. Post-9/11 wars (including indirect deaths): Research from Brown University’s Costs of War project estimates 4.5-4.7 million direct and indirect deaths related to post-9/11 wars in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, and other areas.”

So, what is my point?

It’s this: if Iran ever obtained a nuclear bomb or bombs, they would absolutely use them to exterminate Israel. They would try to exterminate America. They would try to exterminate Canada and Europe. That’s how deadly that religion remains in the 21st century.

Do you see anyone immigrating to the Middle East? Do you see peace in Europe with its millions of Muslims? Douglas Murray wrote about Islam conquering Europe with his book: The Strange Death of Europe. Islam has degraded, degenerated and completely ruined Western Society in Europe. They won’t stop until they turn Europe into Sharia Law…which in reality is horrendous barbarism.

So, when you’ve got dingbats like AOC, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Maxine Waters, and others that want to impeach Trump—you must understand they remain clueless in the face of reality.

If they lived in Muslim dominated countries, they would remain illiterate because they would not be allowed to be educated. They could not leave the house without a male family member. They could not drive car or ride a bicycle. They could not dance. They could not paint a picture. They could not swim in a pool with a swim suit or with other males. They would not be able to choose their own dress or spouse.

Would any of those four women accept such male dominance? Would you as an American female accept this kind of nightmare in your life?

Would you accept this dictate?

As stated by Omar Ahmad, director of C.A.I.R. (Council on American Islamic Relations), “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Quran should be the highest authority in America and Islam the only religion on Earth.”

Now you understand why Trump took action. He took it for all of Western Humanity. He took it for every Israeli. He took it for every American citizens. In the final analysis, we live in dangerous times with a dangerous religion. If Islam’s leaders could, they would behead or cut the throats off anyone who would disobey them.

This is why I am an American Patriot. We either stand up for freedom, equality, integrity of thought, choices and freedom of religion—or we let ourselves devolve into the insanity of Islam. (Caveat: If I was in power, I would deport every Muslim out of America because it’s too deadly to keep them here. They simply cannot accept our way of life and our religious freedoms. Their Quran demands they spread Sharia Law. They would bring us down just like they are bringing down Europe.)

God bless our U.S. Constitution. God bless Donald Trump. God bless those men and women who carried out the raid on Iran. God bless every loyal American. God bless America.

British philosopher Lord Acton said, “Power corrupts…and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” He knew human nature all too well.

He might have added, “Longterm power corrupts long-term power holders.”

The worst mistake our Founding Fathers made: to allow endless political careers for politicians who desire personal wealth and prestige over service to the people. South Carolina’s Strom Thurmond served 49 years as a U.S. Senator before dying in office at age 100. U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA), wheel-chaired, nearly blind and suffering from dementia died at age 90, while still in office. Joe Biden, suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease, aged 82, wanted to run for another four years as president of the United States, while in fact, his staff illegally “ran” our country because Biden was not in charge of his mental faculties.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, having served for 35 years, wants to serve another two years as she babbles past 84 years of age. At the same time, she fed her husband stock trades as “insider trading” to defense contracts while she voted to keep the Afghanistan-Iraq wars continuing for 20 years. Her corruption sinks as deep as the Mariana Trench at 36,000 feet in depth.

General George S. Patton said, “Politicians are the lowest form of life on Earth. Democrats are the lowest form of politicians.”

When you examine the extraordinary corruption in America’s U.S. Congress—-it’s most disturbing that the majority of 535 Congressional Critters solve very little while letting enormous issues boil out of control. We all pay for those consequences. We paid billions for the Vietnam War. We lost 58,479 young men. That war brought Drug Addictions to America into the millions of kids. It destroyed any sense of “right and wrong” as our politicians and the Military Industrial Complex kept pumping that war up with lies, big lies and more lies for 10 years. All of it for nothing but big bucks in Congressional Pockets and the M.I.C. corporate heads.

Same thing for the 20 year Afghanistan-Iraq War: we lost $6 trillion in that engineered war. We should have fled that war after killing bin Laden in 2011. Instead, once again, the M.I.C. and Congress kept us in it for another 10 years. Over 7,500 kids paid with their lives and over 131,000 soldier suicides since 2001.

All the while, we’re eyeball-deep in a $36 trillion national debt. Our Congress allowed Biden to inject 12 million illegal aliens our midst, at INCREDIBLE COSTS of billions to our citizens. We’ve got over 800,000 homeless Americans sleeping on our streets or slum camps around the country. We’ve got our own governors, senators and mayors protecting, feeding and housing refugees who have invaded our country. Those elected officials violate our laws. What happened to oath of office, serving American citizens, and abiding by our laws?

Then, when you look at what D.O.G.E. has turned up as to the trillions of dollars stolen from American taxpayers over the past 50 years—you gotta’ starting wondering, “What the hell is going on with our corrupt Congressional Critters?”

For certain, my two U.S. Senators, Hickenlooper and Bennet, are both corrupt. They lie, they cheat, they do nothing to serve any of us in my home state of Colorado. My Governor Polis is also corrupt, a liar, and he violates his oath of office to force us into paying for over 50,000 illegal aliens that he invited into Colorado.

When you look at over 25 million of them hanging out in America, it’s all because of Congress and all those long-term corrupt politicians that could give a damn about, we, the American citizens—who are paying for this nightmare in our dead children killed by illegals, drugs everywhere killing over 270,000 kids in the past five years, crime in all 50 states, rapes, shoplifting, failing schools, and resources being sucked up faster than we can begin to understand. Not to mention all the foreign invaders marching around with their countries’ flags instead of ours. You would think that we’ve been conquered by Mexico because that’s the dominant flag being flown from California to New York.

“Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. Ah, but I repeat myself.” ― Mark Twain

What can we do and what must we do to change the corruption of SO MANY rats in The Swamp of Washington DC? The fact remains: if we had at least 51 percent of them honoring their oath of office, we wouldn’t be in our current mess.

“When buying and selling are controlled by legislation, the first things to be bought and sold are legislators.” – P. J. O’Rourke

The solution is: TERM LIMITS for all senators and House members. We give them a max of two four-year terms. If they are doing a great job, we give them a second four year term. If not, we dump them after their first four year term. That’s it!

We need fresh American minds in Congress in these critical days in the first quarter of the 21st century. There’s no way an old man like Kentucky’s U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell, at 83, should be in charge of our lives with his “forever” career in Washington DC. Same with Charles Schumer of New York. Both of them have held Senate Majority leader chairs, but they solved nothing while in office. And we sure should not tolerate House Member, Somalian illegal immigrant, Ilhan Omar (D-MN) who said this week, “America is the worst country in the world.” We should not tolerate House Member Rashida Talaib (D-MI) from Detroit, siding with Hamas and wrapping herself in a Palestinian flag when Detroit’s Muslim population voted her into office. Both should be deported and/or tossed out of Congress.

So, the solution is: TERM LIMITS! How do we get there because it’s been brought up numerous times, but the bill gets tabled and thrown into the “oblivion” circular file?

We will receive term limits by voting into office elected officials who campaigned for such passage. We can also write our senators and House members in such large numbers that we make it a national calling. It’s got to come from the ground level American citizens in order to become a popular mandate. If you want term limits, you’ve got to speak up, write up, and stand up.

Let’s invite democrats to examine their own stupidities along with vacant mindedness—-and began the long, hard road back to reality—in order to serve the American people.

Wasn’t it sheer stupidity or just plain arrogance to watch Alzheimer’s victim Joe Biden for four years—stagger around, lost on stage, fell on his face, wandered into the woods, fell asleep at an international ecological conference, tripped on the steps going up Air Force One, read from a teleprompter because he couldn’t write or speak spontaneously, and visually showed everyone he was incapable of being the president of the United States.

And yet, his press secretary said Biden ran circles around her and the rest of the staff in the Oval Office. Along with Jill Biden, KJP carried on the biggest cover-up scandal in American history. All for the sake of “power” or personal importance.

This past week, you’ve seen Governor Gavin Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass condemning Trump for sending in the guard to quell anti-ICE demonstrations that boiled over into violence, looting, burning cars and Molotov cocktails being thrown at police. You gotta’ wonder what planet those two started their lives upon? They’ve promoted their Sanctuary State and City to the tune of 3,000,000 illegal aliens breaking every law in the books—yet they protect those illegal aliens over American citizens.

Writer Dan Gainor said, “Outlet after outlet has slipped the word “peaceful” into their coverage of the violent riots. There’s The New York Times with “largely peaceful” twice in the same story and one more “peaceful” for good measure.” Reuters said, “largely peaceful,” too. “The View,” scarily an actual ABC News program, had host Whoopi Goldberg claim, “it’s been peaceful for days.” Over at CNN, they said people were there to protest, “initially peacefully.” Even wars are initially peaceful. Till they aren’t. The Washington Post called the protests “muted,” and, honestly, we’d all love to see rioters muted or even gagged. Sometime comedian Jon Stewart went with, “peaceful protesters, mixed with anarchists and vandals.”

With our free press, the truth ultimately arrives on a platter to undermine liars, liars’ wives and politicians.

Those “brilliant minded” women on the TV Show, “The View” said, “An army turned inside to police its citizens can cause chaos and fascism.” Goldberg added, “Civil war.” Gainor said, “The idea that enforcing the law could lead to civil war is the kind of threat Marxists make. If you try to make me obey the law, I will break more laws.”

What astounds this journalist stems from the fact that the directors, producers and stars of “The View” simply hate America. They make a living out of it. Ironically, more than a dozen people watch their insipid program. Thankfully, MSNBC fired Joy Reid and Rachel Maddox because they got sick of their ignorant programs.

As to the cars burning in the streets, what’s the big deal? What’s the problem about all the businesses looted? Is that what a Sanctuary City is all about?

Spokesman Jory Rand said, “It could turn very volatile if you move law enforcement in there in the wrong way, and turn what is just a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn into a massive confrontation and altercation between officers and demonstrators.”

At times, it’s difficult to understand the “mindset” of liberals. They live on this planet, and in this country, but their minds rotate around the moon.

Let’s look at journalist like CNN’s Dana Bash and Jake Tapper. They pretend to be journalist when, in fact, they turn every truth inside out and upside down.

Bash does what the left always does. She blamed Trump.

On her show, “Inside Politics With Dana Bash,” she ranted, “I know this is a promise that he gave on the campaign trail to do whatever he could to deport illegal immigrants. But what you just posted is basically an arsonist saying, ‘I better call the fire department because they got to come in fast to get the flames out.”

Yeah, right Dana. Maybe you could become a reporter for the “Daily News” in Podunk, Oregon.

Then you see Jake Tapper deny Biden’s vacant mind for four years, but denied his decline. But when the facts became undeniable, he wrote a book about how he and the rest of the media were fooled. No Jake, it’s called, “How I B.S.’d myself and the American public.”

While California burned, Newsom and Bass gave “excuse” speeches. While Border Patrol Head Tom Homan is doing his job to rid the country of criminal illegal aliens, Newsom and Bass do everything in their power to undermine America’s laws, border and society. Except, even Californian citizens are sick of paying out billions in welfare, medicaid, prison housing, schools going into the gutter, homelessness, drugs and crime.

When you look at the whole mess of “liberal” California, Washington State, Oregon, Illinois, New York, Massachusetts, and places like Maine—you cannot help but wonder what’s in their drinking water? How do you feed and/or sustain the mindlessness of a “liberal mind?”

How do you support biological men smashing the hopes and dreams of biological women? Well, that “vacant” liberal mind does just that. It supports that which cannot be supported—-not biologically, morally, ethically or rationally.

How do you support U.S. AID cheating, lying, scandalizing and screwing the American taxpayer out of trillions of dollars over the past 50 years? Guess what? It’s all about “mindset.” A liberal can rationalize the lying, cheating and stealing—-as long as it’s going into their NGO’s pockets.

At some point, we need to introduce an academic class in our high schools that our teens must pass in order to be released into our country: “Logic, reasoning and critical thinking.”

That class is desperately need by Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Joe Scarborough, Brian Stelter, Jonathan Karl, Jake Tapper, Dana Bash, Rachel Maddox, and everyone at CNN, MSNBC and NPR. That’s my invitation to liberals. I will teach the class!

Oh, and by the way, I LOVED the 250th Anniversary of the United States Army Parade. Every man and woman who has served our country in the Navy, Army, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard gave their lives that we might enjoy our lives. God bless America!

June 12, 2025

Before writing this column, I want to make a correction noted by a reader in Thornton, Colorado, concerning my commentary on June 9, 2025: Consequences of 25 Million Illegal Aliens in America.

Frosty: “There were ten victims in the Boulder King Soopers shooting, not 13 as you stated in the piece. I was a civilian employee of the Boulder Police Department at the time and lost my friend and colleague Officer Eric Talley, the last to perish after nine civilians had been killed and before the slaughter was stopped by fellow responding officers. A correction would be welcome.” James D.

Thank you James for keeping me on top of my research on anything I present to the public. It’s extremely important to give accurate information to you, the public. The event took place on March 22, 2021. The killer is now serving 10 life sentences with no chance for parole.

We are all pained and give our prayers for Officer Eric Talley, and his friends and family. In so many ways, it tears at my soul at the loss of fellow Americans at the hands of illegal aliens—those who arrived in violation of our laws—and worse, to do harm to our citizens.

Let it be known that I try my level best to give you “ground level” reporting based on my observations and commensurate research. If I fail you, I fail myself. Thanks for keeping me on my journalistic toes.

Another thing along with James D.’s bringing to my attention, stems from the fact that our elected leaders continue making excuses for their incompetence, their violation of their oath of office, and their disregard for fellow Americans.

What’s happening in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, NYC, Boston and more cities, stinks. You’ve got governors, mayors and city councils opening their cities to lawlessness. Even worse, after the riots explode, clowns like Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass blame anyone but themselves. The reality remains: California encourages lawlessness by inviting lawlessness into its own population. When you create a lawless citizenry like we see in California, you’re going to see it explode because, right now, there’s got to be at least 1,000,000 illegal aliens in LA, alone. Another 2,000,000 around the rest of the state. Probably more!

And yet, you hear “newspeak” from Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass, like they practiced it right out of George Orwell’s book: 1984. They lie through their teeth. They obfuscate the facts. They’ve lied so much, they believe their own lies.

They pretend to be competent when they are the perfect example of The Peter Principle by Lawrence Peter. “In industrialized countries, people are promoted to their highest level of incompetence.”

In this case, you have so many illegal aliens in California, of course, they have registered to vote, and they voted for people who would protect them from deportation.

But the caveat remains: if you keep growing a third world illegal alien citizenry, it’s going to backfire. When you grow enough of them, they can and will overwhelm our systems of law and order.

If you noticed, you’re seeing a predominance of Mexican, Venezuelan, Guatemalan, Hamas, Palestinian and other flags being flown in all those demonstrations across our country.

One girl screamed out on a news report, “This land was stolen from Mexico. We want our land back.”

Soon enough, not only will you hear from our Muslim enclaves, “Death to America”, but in Sweden, they are boasting, “Sweden will become an Islamic caliphate…we only accept Sharia Law.”

College students supporting Hamas’ attacks on Jews spreads like wildfire across our eastern colleges. You’re seeing only Palestinian flags and NOT our Stars and Stripes. How could that happen in America? Well, it’s happening. That Jewish couple just got shot to death several weeks ago.

We better ask ourselves how far do we want to go down that “insurrection, sedition and chaos” rabbit hole?

The fact remains that Biden allowed over 12 million refugees with conflicting religions, cultures and world views. They will start demanding that we abide by their ideologies. It’s already occurring across our country this past week. It can only worsen as we import more of them, legally or illegally.

What’s beyond stupid grows beyond reason: our own youth are burning Old Glory and spitting on it in the streets of LA, and more than likely, across the USA. These kids didn’t serve in the military, while at the same time, our universities are teaching them to hate America. If you teach enough young people to hate America, it will fall into “insurrection, sedition and chaos” just like what happened with the George Floyd riots.

Yes, we encourage peaceful demonstrations in America, and it’s guaranteed by the First Amendment—but we cannot, should not and will not tolerate anarchy, looting, firebombing our police and stoning our law officers and National Guard.

The reality is, these riotous youth don’t have any “integrity” skin in the game. They don’t have any understanding of the costs of “freedom” in America. All of them need to be shipped off to North Korea, China or Russia to serve on the front lines of Ukraine. They would gain one heck of an education. Totalitarian dictatorships use anyone as they please and they kill people in a heartbeat.

Personally, we need to deport every single last illegal alien in America. You want to wave your country’s flag? Wave it in your own country. You want a better country? Then, work in your own country to make it better. We need to mandate English as our official language by Congressional Law. We need honest reporting by our mainstream media…which we don’t enjoy! We need governors and mayors and city councils to rescind “Sanctuary City” status…and follow our laws as put into place by our elected leaders.

We need to support our troops, our police officers, our firefighters, and our laws. We need those hellishly political animals in Washington DC to stand up for America and Americans. They need to work with Trump instead of against him. We voted him into office, so that’s his mandate. We need term limits, NOW! We need fresh minds to solve 21st century problems. Old men and Old women in Congress won’t and don’t get the job done. In fact, they don’t know what’s going on in America at the local level.

Finally, I am proud of America. I fly Old Glory outside my front door every day. I love this country because I’ve seen some really nasty countries around the world. We offer every American citizen the very best in opportunities no matter what their race, religion or color. Americans are the luckiest human beings on the planet. Wouldn’t you agree?

One look at New York City’s illegal alien invasion might not create any reaction—other than illegals rioting in the streets over the weekend. But if you look at Boulder, Colorado’s illegal alien invasion, Jewish people might find themselves terrified at the prospects of more Muslim illegal aliens lying in wait to set them on fire. Or, what about that Muslim who machine-gunned 13 people at Boulder’s King Sooper’s three years ago? All died. Or, how about one look at the plethora of Mexican flags now flying in the streets of Los Angeles—you might get the idea that our country buckles under an invasion of illegal aliens.

Millions of them now enjoy entrenchment into our society to such a degree that they feel entitled to riot, block traffic, kill and burn our cities to the ground.

Can you imagine what’s it’s going to be like when we start seeing Islam’s black flag flying all over our streets across America? Heck, if you travel to Detroit, Michigan, that’s what you will witness—black Islamic flags. How do I know? I traveled to Detroit to see them, personally. Does the chant, “Death to America” coming from Detroit ring in your ears?

Today, in 2025, our past four presidents and Congress have allowed in excess of 25,000,000 (million) illegal aliens to take up residence in the United States.

Before Biden, the mainstream media reported 12 million illegal aliens within America. After four years of Biden/and his handlers, we understand from the Border Patrol that 12 million more entered from over 150 countries. That’s 24 million illegals. Another 2 to 3 million illegal aliens, known as “gotaways”, avoided capture as they slipped into our country. That’s 26 to 27 million. Then, you have to figure another 10 to 20 million of their babies. That’s at least 36 to 50 million people who don’t belong in our country.

What are the consequences? The costs scream off the charts. The hidden costs boggle a rational person’s mind. The long-term costs will upend our society in ways that will remind you of every country that’s fallen into the dustbin of history.

As to the financial costs, we’re talking into the billions, if not trillions of dollars. If anyone thinks we will still be financially viable with a $36 trillion national debt that will soon be $40 trillion, you’ve got another thought coming. We’re in DEEP doo-doo.

Have you heard of cash-transfers by legal and illegal refugees? “In 2024, immigrants in the US sent over $81 billion in remittances back to their home countries, according to the World Bank. Another source indicates the figure was $79.15 billion.”

That’s your money flying out of your country. At the same time, you paid for millions of illegal kids’ educations K-12.

Every year, you also pay for 400,000 “anchor babies”, their births, their care, their food, their housing, their schooling, their ESL courses—-to the tune of trillions of dollars over the past 50 years.

You paid for billions in shoplifting because you make up for it with your purchases: “In the US, retailers lose over $13 billion annually to shoplifting. This equates to more than $35 million per day.” Entire foreign gangs engage in shoplifting. Our Congress imports entire criminal enterprises in those millions of illegal aliens.

How many cars are stolen annually? “In 2023, over one million cars were stolen in the United States. Specifically, 1,020,729 vehicles were reported stolen, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB).”

What about our citizenship? How has it been betrayed by 1.4 million illegals leeching off Medicaid as reported last week by OMB? That’s a lot of cash and services going out to people who did not earn it and are in violation of our laws.

Remember this statement: “Corruption is a mechanism by which third world countries operate.” When you import millions of people from the third world, you too, become a third world country because of their sheer numbers. When they lack ethics, morality, honesty and integrity—-stealing and ripping off the system is cultural.

How many illegal aliens are in U.S. prisons? “In 2023, an estimated 67,813 illegal immigrants were incarcerated in the United States.”

What did those 67,813 illegal aliens do to reach prison? They raped, killed, tortured, burglarized, shoplifted, and worse—-American citizens. What comes to mind? Well, that 22 year old University of Georgia co-ed Laken Riley would be alive today if not for Biden’s open borders or New York City’s Sanctuary status. Hundreds and thousands of Americans would not have suffered rape, robbery or death at the hands of those illegals.

What about all the jobs illegals steal from Americans or lower our wages? Oh, you hear that illegals pick the crops. Only 1 percent of illegals pick crops. They are better at picking your pocket. Oh, they do the jobs that Americans won’t do. False, every job in every town where there are no illegal aliens—-gets worked and completed by the American citizens of that town. The free market always ups the wages to cover the job.

What about the riots playing out in Los Angeles right now, with all those Mexican flags flying in her riot-torn streets? We’re talking Mexican conquest of Los Angeles. Over 4,000,000 illegals inhabit California and LA to the point that the schools must teach in Spanish to detriment of taxpayers and our own students. California’s schools have been downgraded to slum-level academics. In other words, illiteracy wins and education loses. LA’s American kids suffer.

At the same time, U.S. House Rep Maxine Waters (D-CA) and House Rep Norma Torres (D-CA) incited more rioting. Both should be thrown out of Congress for betraying their oath of office to the U.S. Constitution. Both are anti-America and anti-laws of America.

What you’re seeing is a loss of the rule of law in America. Decent and loyal American citizens don’t throw rocks at our DHS, FBI and Border Patrol officers. Law-abiding Americans support our immigration laws and the men/women who enforce them.

Without our laws, and without solid borders, America simply becomes a “destination” for criminals from all over the world. Notice how MS-13 gangs have killed off 270,000 of our kids with drug overdoses in the past four years under Biden. Or, we become a swirling mega-boiling pot of incompatible, illiterate and dangerous religions, world-views and ethnic conflict.

We didn’t stop the Black Lives Matter riots. Result: deaths of police officers, billions of dollars burned up, and total loss of the rule of law. If we don’t stop the riots in Los Angeles, it only emboldens all those street rioters to do even more damage to our country.

It means a total breakdown in American society. It means incompetent mayors like LA’s Karen Bass or California’s Governor Newsom cannot be trusted with administering our laws. Same with that buffoon Governor Walz in Minnesota. Same with that useless Chicago Mayor Johnson or Denver’s Mayor Johnston. Useless, all of them!

You must ask yourself: do you want a Mayor Bass or Newsom or Walz or Johnson to run your town? Do you want lawlessness to take over? Do you want another 25 million more illegal aliens? Do you want their gangs in your neighborhood? Do you want them killing or raping your daughter? How do you think the parents of Laken Riley or Kate Steinle or Jocelyn Nungaray feel? How do those parents of those 270,000 drug deaths feel?

Finally, do you want the fabric of American society to dissolve under this immigration invasion?

Last weekend, illegal Muslim migrant Muhammad Soliman drove from Colorado Springs with his 16 Molotov cocktail bombs— into Boulder, Colorado, to fire bomb Americans walking along Pearl Street Mall. He injured 12 people that he lit on fire with his homemade flame thrower.

“According to the criminal complaint, on June 1, 2025, at approximately 2 p.m., Soliman threw two lit Molotov cocktails at individuals participating in a gathering near the Boulder Courthouse of members of “Run for Their Lives,” which organizes weekly walks to call attention to the Israeli hostages in Gaza. When he threw the Molotov cocktails, Soliman yelled “Free Palestine!” The Molotov cocktails ignited in the crowd of people, causing burn injuries to eight individuals.” (Source: U.S. District Attorney’s Office, Boulder, CO)

For the record, Boulder, Colorado invites illegal aliens to live, work and commit crimes in Boulder. I used to live in Boulder that stands as a mini-California where laws don’t count. Criminals hide in Boulder with immunity from the police. Their schools suffer from illegal children overwhelming the social services as to “free lunches”, free schooling, free books, free ESL classes, and free medical care. The “free” parts are citizens’ tax dollars.

In fact, the mayors of Boulder and Denver support open borders and Sanctuary City status. Our two U.S. senators support open borders and Sanctuary Cities. At the same time, Governor Jared Polis supports open borders and Sanctuary Cities. We’ve got 45,000 illegals in Denver. They cost us billions of dollars. They trashed downtown Denver beyond recognition. But, as they say, our mayors and governor invited them!

“The complaint also alleges that when Soliman was detained by local law enforcement, at least fourteen unlit Molotov cocktails and a backpack weed sprayer, potentially containing a flammable substance, were found nearby. A car registered to Soliman, parked a block away, contained a red gas container, red material consistent with rags used in the Molotov cocktails, and paperwork with the words, “Israel,” “Palestine,” and “USAID.”

When Soliman’s wife and kids were arrested immediately, and were set to be deported back to Egypt—a Colorado Federal judge stopped the deportation. The fact remains that the wife knew her husband was going to firebomb Boulder’s residents. She was complicit in his plan. Yet, she’s protected from being deported. In other words, even if Soliman had killed two dozen or four dozen people with a machine gun or C-4 bomb, the leaders of Boulder would continue to maintain Boulder as a Sanctuary City.

How crazy is it when two Jewish kids were gunned down in Washington DC a few weeks ago because our leaders are allowing open borders, rampant anti-semitism, and total disregard for the law? It’s becoming endemic in our colleges, our Sanctuary Cities, and throughout the country. Just kill Jews because they are Jews—-is the standard by which Muslims operate.

“The complaint further alleges that, during an interview with local and federal law enforcement, Soliman stated that he had researched on YouTube how to make Molotov cocktails, purchased the ingredients to do so, and constructed them. He traveled to Boulder in his vehicle with the Molotov cocktails and threw two of them at individuals participating in the gathering. He stated that he wanted to kill all Zionist people and wished they were all dead. He stated that he would do it (conduct an attack) again. Throughout the interview, Soliman stated that he hated the “Zionist group” and did this because he needed to stop them from taking over “our land,” i.e., Palestine. He stated that he had been planning the attack for a year.”

You cannot help but wonder when will mayors and governors get the message or connect the dots that we don’t want to incorporate Muslim terrorists into mainstream America? Do their own kids or wives or husbands have to suffer death from a terrorist attack before we stop accepting Islamic followers into America? Do we need another 9/11 or dozens of mini-9/11’s?

To show you what’s coming to America, in Vienna, Muslims are now more than 50 percent of school children. Teachers are quitting in large numbers because student attacks on female teachers, violence against authorities, and verbal abuse.

RMX News reported, “Teachers are quitting schools in Vienna in droves, with up to 20 teachers quitting per day due to the extremely stressful environments featuring mostly migrant Muslim children, many of whom do not speak German or very little German.

“According to a study by the Austrian Statistical Office, around 70 percent of school-age children in Vienna do not speak German in their everyday life. Now, the rise of mass immigration has created growing problems in the Austrian school system, with the Vienna school system threatening to collapse.

“Austrian politicians were more or less backing German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s idealistic approach to mass immigration from Muslim countries during the first big wave of migration in 2015. Now, Austrian schools are no longer able to cope with the problem they have been entrusted with because integration is still not a compulsory subject for immigrants.”

As you know from earlier commentaries, Detroit, Michigan stands as an Islamic Caliphate in our country with 300,000 of them practicing de facto Sharia Law. Another 125,000 Muslim Somalias in Minneapolis, Minnesota also practice Sharia Law. Same with New York City!

When the Hamas slaughter occurred October 7, 2023, the Muzzies in Detroit chanted on social media, “Death to America.” In other words, they are 300,000 strong—terrorists imported into our own country. Europe is already being displaced by 55 million Muslims, 10,000 mosques and incredible tension that will eventually morph into civil war. You know it’s coming as surely as the dawn. And, it’s going to be a bloody conflict. You cannot mix a 6th century barbaric religion into 21st century first world societies.

Muslims are already creating a 400-acre “Islamic City” near Dallas, Texas. It’s ALL Muslim, walled, and a territorial marker. We’re just sitting around thinking they will “play nice.” With Islam, there IS NO INTEGRATION into Western Society.

So why are we following in Europe’s footsteps? Islam is a 6th century savage religion that honor kills 20,000 women annually, all of its women suffer female genital mutilation, and a woman is 1/2 the value of a man. We’re talking about a religion that is GROSSLY incompatible with Western Culture—yet we keep inviting it into America to kill our own culture, free speech, women’s rights, children’s rights and animal rights.

Why are those scoundrels in Washington DC unable to “see” the obvious? Is it the same reason they didn’t want to “see” Joe Biden’s Alzheimer’s Disease for the past four years? Is the main stream press in on the same stupidity with Islam as they were with Joe Biden’s dementia?’

This quote cannot be repeated enough: “Islam is not in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Quran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only religion on Earth,” Omar Ahmad, Director of Council on American Islamic Religion.

Finally, in the Quran, “Convert or kill all non-believers.”

Whether it’s another BIG 9/11, or hundreds of mini-9/11/s like Muhammed Soliman in Boulder last weekend, if you’re a non-believer, you’re in their gunsights.

The ultimate question: Why are we doing this to ourselves?

June 2, 2025

Last week, NewsNation talking head Chris Cuomo said, “Illegal immigration is an artificial issue.” In other words, it’s not THAT big a deal here in America.

After watching Biden’s illegal alien invasion of our country for the past four years and all the pain and destruction he caused, I about fell out of my chair. How could someone with an IQ over 100 make such an absurd, obscene and horrifically stupid and callous statement?

Would such a declaration of “Artificial Issue” fit Laken Riley? An illegal alien named Ibarra, brought into America by Biden, and let out of prison after sexually assaulting a girl in New York City, by Mayor Nick Adams (sanctuary city)—-Ibarra struck her down as she jogged on a path on the campus at the University of Georgia. He beat her into submission, raped her and mutilated her body beyond recognition. Do you feel her parents think illegal immigration is an “Artificial Issue?” What about her promising life cut short by a beast of an illegal alien? What about the pain, physical torture, and inhumanity toward that young woman? How could Chris Cuomo, safely tucked into his New York City office, know anything about the meaning of “Artificial Issue?”

How about Kate Steinle, in 2015, in San Francisco, killed by an illegal alien? As a student, as a woman, as an American citizen with promise, she died with a bullet aimed at her by an illegal alien killer. Do you think her parents feel that their daughter’s death is an “Artificial Issue?” What about her life not lived? Do you have any other excuses for the illegal alien who killed her, Mr. Cuomo?

This past week, two illegal aliens ran over and killed Air Force cadet Ava Moore on a lake in Texas. She was kayaking. They ran her over with a jet ski and fled the scene. Thankfully, an onlooker chased them down and notified authorities. They will sit in jail for years, but Ava Moore’s parents and friends will suffer her loss for the rest of their lives. She won’t get to enjoy her life or serving her country. How do you, Chris Cuomo, brush that off with such an asinine and heartless statement that her death was/is an “Artificial Issue?”

CNN’s Jake Tapper may be one of the most duplicitous journalists on TV, but, Mr. Cuomo, your “Artificial Issue” statement should take the “Dumbest Statement of the Year Award” by a country mile. It proves you heartless, obscene, stupid, corrupt, unfeeling, uncaring and just plain pathetic. It’s a good thing you won’t get a chance to interview me…because I would verbally chop you up and spit you out like a fish burp!

Why? Cuomo’s “Artificial Issue” balderdash doesn’t take in the fact that we’ve got over 25 million illegal aliens in our country that are screwing our country financially, linguistically, scholastically, medically, gangs, drugs, shoplifters, drunk drivers, and another dozen consequences. Thousands of American men and women have suffered incredible tragedies because of illegal aliens. And just wait: we’re going to get hit by a major terror attack by those Islamic illegal aliens who have breached our borders under Biden.

As Speaker Johnson noted over the weekend, we American taxpayers pay for Medicaid for 1.4 million illegal aliens. We pay for 400,000 “anchor babies” annually. That’s our money into the trillions of dollars over the past 30 years of that fraudulent nightmare. Worse, it’s enabled by our own elected 535 scoundrels in Congress. Now, it’s being enabled by some moronic Federal judges stopping Trump’s Executive Order to stop all anchor babies from instant citizenship. The 14th Amendment was meant for children of former slaves…NOT illegal alien mothers.

What about the 270,000 drug overdose deaths in the past four years of the Biden administration brought to us by MS-13 drug distribution gangs working all over America to kill our kids? How much “Artificial Issue” do you think that nightmare is, Chris Cuomo? Do you possess any understanding of the level of pain and loss life that constitutes? What about the loss of a loved one?

The latest report showed that we American taxpayers shelled out $150,000,000,000.00 (billion), annually for four years under Biden, of our money to house, feed, and educate over 12 million illegal aliens Biden engineered into our country. That’s on top of the 12 million already here before Biden’s stupendously corrupt four years in the White House.

What about our car insurance rates? What kind of insurance do illegals pay when they get into an accident? Or drunkenly kill another American while operating a vehicle? Answer: they flee the scene. Is that an “Artificial Issue”, too, Chris Cuomo?

When I hear such stupid remarks by TV personalities such as Chris Cuomo, or Joy Behar on “The View” or a Jake Tapper or Kristen Welker at NBC—I intellectually feel like retching my guts out.

Same with some of the outspoken Congressional critters like Ilhan Omar, AOC, Rashida Talaib, or the “one splash wonder” named Jasmine Crockett (D-TX).

U.S. Senator John Kennedy (R-LA), at a Congressional hearing stated, “Omar, AOC, Talaib and Jasmine Crockett are the reason manufacturers must put directions on a bottle of shampoo.” That’s how intellectually vacant those ladies prove themselves every time they open their mouths. In fact, the latest polls say that AOC and Crockett could be the front runners for the president and vice-president in the 2028 election.

As a former teacher, I wonder how in the hell did they graduate from the 8th grade? Those two set a whole new benchmark for the words, “STUPID BEYOND BELIEF.”

So what can we ask of Chris Cuomo? First of all, please send this column to Chris Cuomo: programming@newsnation.com

Invite him and his staff to interview me. I guarantee you a lively conversation. He won’t be allowed to over-talk me!

You can also write into “60 Minutes” over Scott Pelley’s ridiculous commencement speech at Wake Forest University. (60M@cbsnews.com) Pelley spoke about our freedom of speech disappearing. He said our country was under attack by Trump. Notice Pelley said NOTHING while Biden blatantly opened our borders to the greatest invasion in all of history. Notice that all of “60 Minutes” won’t touch the fact that America faces an added 100 million people by mid-century, give or take a decade, because of mass immigration. They won’t explain the consequences of our $36 trillion national debt.

As an American citizen, I’m sick and tired of our mainstream media feeding us a bunch of crap, daily. That means Lester Holt, now Tom Llamas, David Muir, John Dickerson and the rest of them at the big networks. Same with NPR and PBS. They keep all of us in the dark.

The same thing is going on in Europe with mass immigration out of the third world. Western Culture is being brutally marginalized and vanquished by the insanity of Islam and the entire illiterate continent of Africa. They can’t solve their own problems, so they invade Europe, Canada and the United States.

What can you do? Answer: you need to write your two Senators and House member. If they work for America and your best interests, thank them. Give them more ideas that need to become laws. If they are like that stupid Senator Van Hollen (D-MD) going down to El Salvador to try to return that MS-13 gang member into our society—- you need to vote them out of office. You need to speak up to your governor who supports men in women’s sports—and tell that governor what you think of him or her. You need to support the men and women of DOGE. The fact remains: we American taxpayers are getting screwed: up, down, left, right, forwards, backwards and around and around.

You need to help bring common sense and integrity back into the American mainstream. After all, it’s still your country!

Out in California, the land of fruits and nuts, school boards that control the educational levers for 5,200,000 American kids—are ready to pass a new grading system: “Grading for Equity.” In that new system, everyone “earns” an “A” whether they perform the work or not. As a former teacher in the “Inner City”, along with teaching in Boulder, Colorado—I can verify that once you delete standards, tests and discipline—you prepare students for lives of mediocrity, indolence and illiteracy. That prepares our civilization to dive into stupidity, poverty and failure.

The same “fruits and nuts” school boards advocate for biological men pounding the daylights out of biological women in every sport imaginable. What stands as the greatest tragedy in American academic and athletic history stems from the fact that “sane and rational” Americans haven’t stood up to the insanity of “transgender” boys competing against girls. Why haven’t all girls and women Boycotted any event where a biological man competes? Give every girl the courage of swimmer Riley Gaines. It would stop the madness, immediately.

And yet, the main stream media avoided covering everything from Biden’s Alzheimer’s Disease as early as 2019 all the way to 2025. Not until his dementia-riddled mind could not function at the basic levels…did journalists like Jake Tapper write a book chronicling Biden’s dementia. It’s almost a sure thing that Karin Jean Pierre will write a book saying that until 2024’s debate, “Biden was a sharp as a tack, and he ran circles around the White House staff.”

Again, the lies at the highest levels escaped any legacy media coverage. Come on! Covid 19 originated in a Wuhan Virology Lab in China. Yet, the media lied through its teeth to keep us all in the dark.

My colleague, Victor Davis Hanson said, “For years, the Left has advanced utter untruths for cheap partisan purposes that they knew at the time were all false. And now when caught, they just shrug and say they were lying all along.

Once it was known that the first Covid case originated in or near a Chinese communist virology lab engineering gain-of-function deadly viruses—with help from Western agencies—the Left went into full persecution mode.

“They damned as incompetent, racist, and conspiratorial anyone who dared follow logic and evidence to point out that the Chinese government and its military were both culpable for the virus and lying.

“A million Americans died of COVID-19. Millions more suffered long-term injuries. Still, the left-wing media and the Biden administration demonized any who dared speak about a lab origin of the deadly virus.”

The lies were designed to protect the guilty who had helped fund the virus’ origins, such as Drs. Fauci and Francis Collins.

The Left media covered up the fact that Biden engineered 12 million illegal aliens into America in violation of our laws.

Our FBI under James Comey hired Steele as an informant. It helped disseminate his concocted files and was also instrumental in trying to subvert the Trump campaign and later administration.

No sane person ever believed that Hunter Biden’s Laptop was the work of “Russian disinformation.” Its contents a year before the 2020 election were verified by the FBI, but it kept mum about its confirmation.

Hanson said, “The pornographic pictures, the evidence of prostitution and drug use, the electronic communications implicating Joe Biden in his family’s illicit shake-down operation of foreign governments—all were never challenged by anyone who was associated with the laptop’s contents.”

Biden cited lie after lie, to claim the incriminating laptop was fake. It was and is real! A lying media damned Trump as a puppet of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Biden, little more than a week later, won the 2020 election.

Even my own U.S. Senator Michael Bennet participated in the lies. He has stated, “Our broken immigration system….” ad nauseam. What he means is: we’re not enforcing our immigration laws, so we need to make new laws that we won’t enforce.” It’s like half of our U.S. Senate works overtime to destroy our America with the greatest invasion in history.

Then, you’ve got “nuts and fruits” like U.S. Senator Van Hollen (D-MD) going down to El Salvador to spring an MS-13 terrorist back into the United States. Let’s not talk about 270,000 citizen drug-overdose deaths because of MS-13 drug distribution networks all over America. Van Hollen forgot about a Maryland woman of five children being brutally beaten, raped and killed.

The media fabricated the excuse that “comprehensive immigration reform” was needed to enforce federal immigration laws already on the books.

Notice, upon inauguration on Jan. 20, Trump, in a matter of days, stopped what Biden had deliberately engineered for years. And yet, the legacy media, that’s Norah O’Donnell (now retired), David Muir, Lester Holt, MSNBC, NPR and PBS stand complicit in the cover-up of the invasion.

Biden’s handlers engaged the Cloward-Piven Strategy to overload our welfare systems with millions of poor illegal aliens, dependent on social services, to swarm the borders.

If you look at the facts, Biden and his handlers have made a huge success with the present count of over 20-25 million people added to our country that violated our borders, and are sucking off our welfare and food systems—against all of us and our wallets. “All these lies have divided the country and permanently damaged the U.S.,” said Hanson.

What’s worse, no one will ever be held accountable or go to prison.

In the end, our Legacy Media will never be trusted again. Joe Biden, his pervert son Hunter, his corrupt wife Jill Biden, and the entire Biden Crime Family will more than likely skip off into the sunset without missing a beat.

Finally, what is “Grading for Equity”? Its ultimate goal is to create a “dumbed down” citizenry that cannot think critically, vote wisely, or maintain this Constitutional Republic. (Note the people who vote for Maxine Waters, Ilhan Omar, Hank Johnson, Rashida Talaib, AOC, Pressley and other “mental midgets.”) Meanwhile, look at all those “fruits and nuts” cheering for “transmen” to beat the crap out of girls.

Most American kids today take their freedoms for granted. Most don’t possess a clue as to the “Greatest Generation” that saved the world from Nazi aggression in World War II. Most bury themselves in their “Smart Phones” while our society moves at frenetic speed to a destination none of us really understand.

My father, M/Sgt Howard Wooldridge, born in Reed City, Michigan, 1918, joined the Marine Corps immediately after December 7, 1941. He gave up his baseball scholarship to Western Michigan University. Hitler, Japan, and that “War to End All Wars” stole my father’s youth, his scholarship, his education and his life. He punched through Marine Corps Boot Camp training to become an Infantryman heading to the South Pacific.

You might not know where the term “Infantry” originated. The Romans always thrust the youngest kids, the “Infants”, onto the front lines to be killed in battle. That’s how the word “Infantry” entered the world. It hasn’t changed to this day…old men start wars that kill young men by the thousands, and into the millions.

A perfect example stems from Russia’s 70 year old Vladimir Putin having killed over 200,000 kids on both sides of the Ukraine War that Putin started. If you look back at WWII, Hitler caused the deaths of over 70 million kids from the ages of 15 to 21. Same with the Vietnam War where 58,479 American “infants” died in Robert McNamara’s and Lyndon Johnson’s war that slaughtered 2.3 million Vietnamese. What did the Vietnam War accomplish? Answer: nothing but death.

Okay, my fathered fought in the South Pacific in some of the deadliest fighting against the entrenched Japanese in Iwo Jima. We’re talking about blood, guts, mangled bodies, horrific emotional trauma, thousands died, and many that survived—never recovered their minds or emotions.

Somehow, and this is a fact, it doesn’t matter how smart, strong, fast, tall, short, or educated you are in a war—-if a bullet or bomb has your name on it, you’re off the planet in an instant. As the “luck of the draw” would have it, my father survived combat. I can tell you this: it’s nothing like it is in the movies. “Saving Private Ryan…Band of Brothers…Fury” and other war movies give you a taste of sheer misery, pain and sorrow of war—but they can never give you the sheer horror of what a soldier feels when he’s a face to face with death.

If you notice, those movies never give you a taste of what it’s like to kill another human being. If you have any humanity in your being, how do you process killing another person?

I remember my own U.S. Army Fort Benning, Georgia Boot Camp in 1968. Sgt. Pierce screamed at us, “What is the bayonet fighter’s call?” We screamed back, “To kill, drill sergeant”, as we stabbed the dummies in front of us. During boot camp, we learned to take orders, shoot our rifles into enemy ranks in order to kill as many of the “gooks” as possible.

As we marched with our 35 pound packs in Georgia’s 105 degree heat, we sang, “I wanna’ go to Vietnam, I wanna’ fight the Vietcong…I wanna’ go see Ho Chi Minh, to pull the whisker’s on his chin…sound off 1,2 sound off 3,4, sound off 1,2,3,4….”

During night maneuvers, we crawled under concertino wire while live bullets and tracers fired four feet over our heads. With your rifle across your forearms, you hug the dirt, praying that you won’t die. All the while, the drill sergeants called us, “Maggots, scum buzzards” and other unsavory names. If you made a mistake in the ranks, “Drop for 50 Wooldridge!” “Yes, drill sergeant.” (Pushups)

For certain, when I survived Boot Camp, I figured I was a dead man walking because I knew I would be shipped out to Vietnam.

Why is that? If you and I ever meet, and you shake my hand, you will notice a gold peace ring on my right pinky. My college roommate, who was drafted right out of our room, stopped by to see me before he shipped out to Vietnam as an Infantryman. He said, “Frosty, I bought this peace ring for you. If I get back, we’ll go drink a beer and laugh about it. If I don’t get back, wear this ring and be a man of peace the rest of your life.” The Vietcong killed him in a firefight within three months in Vietnam. I’ve worn that peace ring on my pinky since 1968. He’s traveled all over the world with me…his memory lives with me as an “infant” that never got to live his life. When I visit The Vietnam Wall in Washington DC, I place my hand on his name and cry my guts out. Now you know why I vomit at the thought of McNamara, Lyndon Johnson and General Westmoreland.

So, my Dad returned from WWII. For his reasons, he remained in the Marine Corps. I became a service B.R.A.T. Many think that service kids are “Brats.” Instead, it stands for “British Regiment Attached Traveler.” In other words, my brothers, sister and I were “dependents.” We traveled every three years to new duty stations in the USA and abroad. By the time I was 18, I had seen most of the USA.

With each new duty station, my father started baseball leagues, football leagues, umpired ball games, wrote up the games in the sports pages, and even was awarded a citation from a Marine general for my Dad’s work with youth. He brought up all five of us to become decent, educated, athletic and contributing citizens of America. We stood for the flag on base at the sound of taps, attended church, and did our best on the athletic fields. I can tell you that I am PROUD to be the son of a United States Marine. He and my mother brought all of us kids up to be good American citizens. We’ve all made our parents proud.

But then, while serving our country at Camp Lejeune, my father died umpiring a baseball game at the youthful age of 46. He was lean, in shape and full of life. All I can say is that I’ve loved him with all my heart six decades later. He still inspires me. I know he’s looking down on his kids and he’s very proud.

At the funeral, the preacher said, “In this society of ours, we have come to expect a person to get in bad health and approach the door of death slowly and painfully. We expect the end to come this way so that we can prepare ourselves for it—whether it be us or someone close.

“It always comes as a shock when someone apparently in good health and endowed with boundless energy passes on to his reward swiftly, quietly and painlessly.

“Such was the case for M/Sgt Howard Wooldridge. One day you see him at work, the next day at the bank, and the next day you read about it in the newspapers.

“If it is in-comprehensible to us, mere friends, it must be especially difficult for the family. More so for Wooldridge’s family more than the ordinary family.

“He was an athlete and reared a family of athletes. In earlier years he was a participant as well as a coach and leader in sports wherever he went. Later, he stuck to coaching and officiating, and left the participation to his fine array of athletic sons—Frosty, Rex, Howard and John.

“To an active man, nothing in this world can be more rewarding than a son. With four of them, Wooldridge could have known little but happiness. He watched them grow, encouraged their endeavors, and suffered their defeats side by side.

“In his passing, it may be difficult to find the grit to regroup and advance. But, in sons and friends, Wooldridge left the hard core of aggressiveness and the will to win.

“The human body lasts less than a century; a man’s achievements, good and bad, endure to infinity. This, then is the end result of fatherhood and friendship—-memories that survive the ages. In the eyes of the people that knew him, he shall remain and man of limitless courage, iron determination and a monumental sense of humor and compassion.”

God bless you Dad! Semper Fi from your sons. And God bless the United States Marine Corps. The very best to every man and woman who has served America from Valley Forge to the Middle East.

It started in the 1970’s with “Affirmative Action;” it continues in the 21st century with “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion.” It allowed unqualified American citizens of color or gender to gain jobs over qualified Americans who educated themselves, worked hard and proved their worth.

Those two entities proved to be the biggest cons in American history as to trying to offer equal opportunity. It started in the 1970’s with dumbing down America’s educational system. I know because I taught school during that decade and into the 1990’s.

It’s as though our leaders deliberately planted the seeds of illiteracy into the educational systems of America. “Let’s degrade our standards in reading, writing, math and science to such low levels that anyone can pass tests, and if they can’t, then pass them anyway,” said one teacher.

As an educator, I can vouch for the fact, that if you don’t learn the basics of your grade level, it leaves a hole in your learning curve. Once you cannot read or write at your grade level, you build your educational foundation on a house of cards. I saw it firsthand in the 1980’s when Detroit, Michigan’s dropout/flunk-out rate reached 88 percent as reported by anchor Brian Williams. It led to violence, horrible bullies, lying, cheating, stealing and academic fraud. It destroyed Detroit. That situation spread across the land.

Today, “In the United States, approximately 21% of adults have low literacy skills, translating to about 43.0 million people. This includes 26.5 million adults at level 1 and 8.4 million below level 1. Additionally, 8.2 million adults were unable to participate in literacy assessments due to language barriers or other reasons, further contributing to the overall issue. Roughly 54% of American adults, or 130 million people, lack proficiency in literacy, essentially reading below the equivalent of a sixth-grade level.”

If there is one marker for a successful society; it’s education. If you suffer an illiterate society, you face a failing society. Because, once a huge collective of society lacks basic education, everything begins to fall apart as to ethics, integrity, self-worth, critical thinking, job skills, shoplifting, and lack of personal accountability.

In his book, DEI Exposed, Stanley Ridgly said, “The DEI Con has enriched thousands of hustlers nationwide. It has embedded many hundreds of apparatchiks and supernumeraries in college bureaucracies, and it will require herculean efforts to root them all out…“Diversity” had already been around for many years, its hustler scratching at the university door. Not actual diversity, mind you, but the skin-deep diversity of noxious racialism tarted-up with fake Enlightenment discourse. This concept of “diversity, equity, inclusion” quickly metastasized until it was everywhere, and this was no accident.”

It was no accident that it was violence and the threat of violence that opened the door for this effervescence of DEI.

Ridgly continued, “This was the madness of crowds brought en masse onto the campuses, and it was wildly successful. It was one thing to the public, and it was another altogether when enacted on the campuses… It was the classic Potemkin village offering, with a façade masking a brute, racialist substance.”

“Already, “inclusive excellence” is supplanting DEI as this trusty acronym becomes freighted with failure. Con stories are essential to convincing gullible people to act in ways that simply make no sense to a normal person who is tethered to reality.”

On top of devolving our educational systems, we’ve got NGO’s sucking off the American taxpayer as exposed by DOGE and Elon Musk into the trillions of dollars, your tax dollars. We’ve got 400,000 anchor babies annually leeching off the American taxpayer’s wallet.

According to a new report from John Binder at Breitbart, there were roughly 400,000 anchor babies born in the U.S. in 2024 alone.

“An average of 400,000 anchor babies per year means around 1,100 anchor babies per day; this means more than 11 percent of births taking place on U.S. soil are individuals who are not legitimate citizens and have no right to be here.”

That means, according to writer Olivia Murray, “400,000 anchor babies means… probably 400,000 illegal alien mothers are now fast-tracked to their own citizenship, and we can assume a majority of these anchor babies also anchor an illegal alien father as well. For a very rough estimate, that means 800,000 illegals now have a “legitimate” reason to remain in the U.S., and if each woman were giving birth to one child, that’s 1.2 million people each year being grafted into American society through unscrupulous and unfair means.”

With the median cost of childbirth and postnatal care amounting to around $17,000, that’s $6.8 billion a year.

Murray finished, “That being said, there is no obligation, moral or otherwise, to continue with anchor baby policies—the parents must go home, and take their children with them. I refuse to give in to the gaslighting that somehow the plight of these foreign children is my burden and it’s on me to cede ground to lawlessness.”

In other words, the American taxpayer has been taken for a ride, not only stealing from his/her wallets, but additionally, severe destruction of America’s educational foundation. Again, you cannot teach our kids with 50 different languages in that classroom. It’s not our job as Americans to save the world.

Thankfully, President Trump has written an executive order to stop “birthright citizenship.” It shouldn’t be contested because it was meant for the progeny of freed slaves back in 1865. It does not apply to people breaking into our country, dropping their baby, and instantly be given citizenship, food, housing, school, medical care…essentially a free ride on your tax dollars. It’s been going on for five decades. May the Supreme Court justices bring the stupidity and insanity of “anchor babies” to an end.

It’s as stupid as our own House Members and U.S. Senators trying to stop deportations of rapists, killers, perverts and sex traffickers who have violated our borders. You cannot help but wonder what kind “moronic minds” fill the seats in Congress? Let it be known that U.S. Senator Van Hollen (D-MD) should be impeached for being an intellectual idiot, un-American, and stupid to the point of absurdity.

We desperately need a renewal of educational standards in America. You attend school. You pay attention. You study. You pass your tests. You become an educated 18-year-old. You go to college or technical school or job training programs. You become a contributing member of American society. You make yourself useful, viable, educated and fully responsible for your life.

That’s what the American Dream is all about!

This commentary may give you a sneak preview into the future of America’s civilization. It’s based on the facts that we know, and the coming facts that our children will endure or perish from, because we didn’t take action to change the course of history. Everything I write about stems from my lifetime of world travel across the planet. I’ve seen countries that failed to change course. We cannot afford to follow them down the same rabbit hole.

Since Earth Day 1970, we humans have kept digging a hole for ourselves: ever deeper, ever wider, and ever more dangerous for ourselves and our children.

Did you notice that dozens of tornadoes ripped up Colorado, Illinois, Missouri, and Kentucky over the weekend? Did you notice two dozen deaths along with massive property damage? Did you notice the destroyed lives through all the rubble presented on the major news networks?

Do you remember the hurricane that destroyed Mexico Beach, Florida all the way into South Carolina several years ago? I witnessed them on a bike trip right after they occurred. You cannot get your emotional arms around such disasters until you see them firsthand. Everything gets pulverized in the wake of a tornado or hurricane. Katrina showed us Nature’s wrath on a scale beyond imagination.

Did you notice that in the summer of 2024, the heatwaves scorched the southwest of America. Death Valley hit 130 degrees F. I’ve bicycled through Death Valley at 116 degrees. It’s like riding through Dante’s Inferno with no letup. At 130 degrees, I’m sure I would have shriveled-up like a prune and died. Heat rages over 120 degrees daily in Arizona in the summer.

Wildfires burned hundreds of thousands of acres California, Washington State, Oregon, Arizona, New Mexico…all the way to dozens of wildfires in North Caroline, Pennsylvania and beyond. Those fires destroy homes, cars, buildings, schools, and entire cities.

LET US CONNECT THE DOTS

What am I getting at?

Whether or not you accept or reject “catastrophic climate destabilization” a.k.a., “climate change”, you must understand that humans, at 8.2 billion of us, are burning 100 million barrels of oil every single day of the year. We’re burning millions of tons of coal and wood annually. We’re injecting millions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere beyond anything EVER realized on this planet since that last meteor hit 65 million years ago—and snuffed out 97 percent of all life. That carbon falls into the oceans. It changes the oceans’ temperatures, which in turn, changes the dynamics of the air, which then creates massive hurricanes and tornadoes when hot and cold air collide.

Additionally, such massive carbon footprint changes the alkalinity of the oceans into acidity. Which, in turn, kills reefs and destroys the ecology for all living things in our oceans. That’s why we’re seeing horrific species extinction rates of over 100 species vanishing from the planet, DAILY!

What about here in the USA? Well, our population stands at 340 million. We’ve added a whopping 40 million, plus at least another 25 million illegal migrants since October of 2006 when we reached 300 million. We’re on course to jump “officially” from 340 million to 371 million (lowest projection) by 2050. That’s 31 million more humans that will be crowding into every lick of land in America. If we hit the middle population projection of around 400 million just past mid-century, which we will definitely reach, that’s 60 million more of us. Top demographic experts tell us the United States, at current growth levels driven by immigration and birth rates, will hit 675 million by the end of this century. That’s a mere 75 years.

Can you imagine how those numbers of humans burning fuels in the USA will contribute to MORE DAMAGE to our landscape? It’s going to get hotter and dryer. More wildfires will scorch the landscape. But it’s going to destroy millions of lives from people living in homes engulfed by the fires or hurricanes, and tornadoes.

In other words, we keep driving the ecological disasters that destroy us by adding millions upon million of humans that drive the reasons for those disasters.

At some point, those disasters will accelerate as our numbers accelerate. That’s just the climatic disasters! Can you imagine jamming our mega-cities like New York, Chicago, LA and Atlanta into even more population overload? What happens when we cannot supply water to them? What about when gasoline is exhausted? How do you feed THAT many people concentrated into such tiny places?

How do you keep up with ground water pollution? How do you keep up with exhausted acquirers? How do you deal with over 1,000,000 roadkills daily…when it reaches 2,000,000 roadkills daily? What about quality of life? What happens when our 800,000 homeless citizens become 1,000,000 homeless citizens? What happens when our 40 million people subsisting on food stamps becomes 100 million people subsisting on food stamps? I could name another dozen nightmares we’re facing as a civilization.

How about the “high speed” insanity of our frenetic society that’s driving our kids to “live” in their cell phones?

Does anyone in America understand what’s coming? Do you realize that we’re painting future generations into a corner? From which there is no escape?

If we continue to import the rest of the world to our shores, we are importing the world’s troubles, violence, misery and massive overpopulation to our shores. Along with that, we’re importing our own demise as a functioning and sustainable civilization. What’s coming stems from the sheer numbers that cannot be sustained.

Have I connected the dots well enough? Why aren’t the top networks addressing what we face? What do they hope to accomplish by keeping the American public in the dark? Why wouldn’t a sane-rational-educated-proactive civilization change course toward a sustainable future? Why can’t America be an example for the rest of the world…by changing course?

Why would we want to repeat China’s population nightmare? Why repeat India’s population nightmare? Why? Why? Why?

THE GREATER OUR NUMBERS; THE GREATER OUR CONSEQUENCES

“Whether we accept it or not, this will likely be the century that determines what the optimal human population is for our planet. It will come about in one of two ways:

Either we decide to manage our own numbers, to avoid a collision of every line on civilization’s graph – or Nature will do it for us, in the form of famines, thirst, climate chaos, crashing ecosystems, opportunistic disease, and wars over dwindling resources that finally cut us down to size.” ― Alan Weisman, Countdown: Our Last Best Hope for a Future on Earth?

The incredible corruption in the Biden regime continues to pile higher and deeper. Whether it was the Green New Deal, or U.S. AID slush fund, or the 15 million illegal aliens he invited into America and/or flew into America in the dark of night, or his son Hunter’s bringing cocaine into the White House, or his Alzheimer’s Disease that was covered up for four years, or choosing Kamala Harris not for her competency but for her D.E.I. designation—-historians will scratch their heads as to how he maintained his fraudulent activities over his life time.

He screwed, cheated and filched billions of dollars out of hardworking taxpayers with his continued U.S. AID, billions in costs for ingesting 15 million illegal aliens with taxpayers paying for food, housing, medical, education, and cell phones; and now, the cost of deporting them, which will take years and years. If we don’t deport them, they are changing the “Personality of America” into an international farce. Same thing going on in Canada and Europe. We’re simply “Self-Terminating” ourselves by displacing ourselves with the human immigration mob demanding to get into America.

Fellow writer Pamela Keller said, “As soon as Kamala Harris lost the election, Biden began sending Democrat-aligned NGOs and companies $1.3 billion per day, almost $100 billion before Trump took office. In the prior 15 years the same loan office gave out just $40 billion, just $8 million a day. This was theft on a scale the world has never seen before. Trump needs to claw this money back.

“The Biden Administration pushed out $93 BILLION in green energy loans in the three months before President Trump took office.”

Joe Biden deliberately sabotaged Americans, all of us.

DOGE reported: The Biden admin’s last-minute $93B green loan spree epitomizes everything wrong with DC’s spending addiction. While the previous administration rushed to lock in pet projects, the Department of Government Efficiency has already clawed back $165 billion in waste through canceled contracts and fraud elimination.

Real energy leadership isn’t shoveling cash out the door – it’s strategic investments like the UAE’s $1.4 trillion commitment to American AI/energy sectors through stable, growth-focused partnerships. The days of midnight regulatory vandalism are over.

One of the promises on our money system states: In God We Trust.

As a country, as a culture, as a government, and as a civilization, we need to get back to the ethics, responsibilities and common sense of a citizenry that honors, teaches and mandates law and order. Without that, we will become a nation “gone under.”

What can we do? Answer: we need to stand up, speak out, write out, and call out corrupt politicians that “play” the system.

We must demand and mandate “Term Limits.” Whether it’s a maximum of serving four years or six—that’s it! As the British philosopher said, “Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” That’s how former Speaker Nancy Pelosi became a multi-millionaire—-sheer, pure corruption. She knows it, her husband knows it, her family knows it, and fellow corrupt politicians know it. The only way to stop that “corrupts absolutely” is to vote for “Term Limits.”

Another thing that’s beyond stupid and beyond corrupt: the “Asylum Laws” voted into place a long time ago—-that can no longer remain applicable. We simply cannot save the rest of the world’s masses. Again, the third world adds 83,000,000 new babies annually, net gain, to the world. They are starving, dying, miserable, uneducated and their line only grows. It is WAY past time to terminate the “Asylum Law” that allows millions to walk into our civilization with no end in sight. Additionally, we cannot continue to import 1,000,000 third world immigrants annually. We’re full, bursting, bloated and overwhelmed with their numbers. We need to mandate “Zero” immigration from here on out. How much more crowded do we want to pack ourselves like sardines in a tin?

What else needs to change? How about we have half of the country that wants to degrade the other half of the country to actually speak about “solutions” instead of castigating the current president of the United States. Run on solutions, not on complaints. Start with those two mental midgets AOC and Jasmine Crockett. Good grief…are they intellectually challenged!

The same thing as to our educational systems: we need schools that mandate honoring our society, our governance, our history, our extraordinary U.S. Constitution and our culture. It’s not that hard to be proud of America when every single person of every race, color and creed enjoys INCREDIBLE latitude as to personal growth, personal wealth, personal effort and extraordinary enjoyment of “Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.” You just don’t find all of that in SO MUCH of the world.

We really NEED to come to terms with “Common Sense” when it comes to allowing .0000000001 percent of our citizens who are biological males competing and beating biological females…it’s nuts, unfair and dangerous for women. There’s a whole bunch of politicians and organizations with their heads screwed on backwards, illogically, irrationally and completely in LaLa Land. It’s up to us, the moral, ethical and rational portion of this society to STOP degrading the females of America. Again, as I’ve said in the past—-if transgenders want to compete among themselves, and form their own competitions, they can compete against each other—fairly, squarely and reasonably. Their supporters can cheer them onward. So, create the National Collegiate Transgender Athletic Association. That’s the only reasonable and common sense solution. Anything else is pure balderdash.

How about “Fair Trade” instead of “Free Trade”? You buy $100 billion in goods from us, and we buy $100 billion in goods from you. Keep it even and fair. Everyone wins!

How about the fact that millions our kids can’t read, write, spell or perform simple math? Let’s change the educational system to be based on merit, performance and parental responsibility. Let’s pay teachers the highest and best salaries because teaching is THE MOST IMPORTANT job in America. We can’t keep turning out the more than 800,000 illiterate, homeless Americans that drag this society into the gutter…along with themselves.

It’s either we return to “Common Sense” and resulting solutions in America, or we all lose.

It wasn’t so many years ago that the Kenyan by birth, Barack Obama, a.k.a., Barry Soeterro, rose illegally into the White House on his silver, duplicitous tongue, and that he said, “America is no longer a Christian nation.” Being a Muslim, and he lied like a snake pretending to be a Christian, he also pledged himself to Islam over America. We need to stand up to anyone who would undermine America. It’s our country for heaven sakes.

The one thing that matters: stand up for America in your home, with your kids, with your school, with your college, with your school board, with your city, with your state and with America. Uncle Sam and Aunt Samantha deserve your best; because when you do your best, America will remain in good hands down through time. God bless America.

In last week’s column, this journalist “spelled it out” like few other writers. “Why Are We Devolving America’s Western Culture? Can We Save Ourselves?” offered a ‘point blank’ assessment as to how America will continue to decline its culture, its own people, its language, and its own way of life.

President Teddy Roosevelt said it over 100 years ago, “In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith (legally), becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”

Whether you watch the riots at colleges, or cities in southern Florida, or southern California, you’re watching Hamas flags, Palestinian flags, Mexican flags, and Muslim flags dominate on the news, but also in those ethnic and religious enclaves. And notice, America now features “no go zones” where those ethnic enclaves dominate. You won’t see any loyalty to America or our flag, i.e. Minneapolis, Detroit, NYC, California. That Somalian U.S. House Member Ilhan Omar despises America…because she can get away with it.

As you watch the evening news, you can see that U.S. Senators Van Hollen, Charles Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and dozens of others don’t like America or its people. They furiously work against Americans. Senator Van Hollen (D-MD) didn’t do a thing for four years to stop 13 million illegal aliens from crossing our borders in violation of our laws. But when one MS-13 terrorist named Garcia gets deported, Van Hollen rushed to bring him back to America. Notice that when one of his constituents, mother of five Rachel Morin, was killed by an illegal alien gangbanger, Van Hollen did NOTHING!

Forever Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) did NOTHING to stop 13 million border jumpers for four solid years! Nancy Pelosi has been an insider-trader on defense contracts that have netted her husband $120 million in the past 30 years of her “forever” tenure in the House of Representatives. She’s a thief, plain and simple!

We’re talking about our U.S. Congress being a “Den of crooks, liars and frauds.” Why do you think we’re $37 trillion in debt? None of them ever get called out, prosecuted or thrown into prison. Their “slush fund” at U.S. AID has been a 50-year nightmare for taxpayers.

In that column last week, you learned that China has purchased 350,000 U.S. farmland acres. They own major food processing plants. They own hotels and warehouses. They virtually supply 90 percent of our goods in Lowe’s and Home Depot. They are buying up fast-food joints. And, nobody in Congress stops them.

So here’s a reader named “Laura” who responded to the truths that were presented in that initial column, with permission:

Frosty,

As to your latest commentary! I’m a speak-my-mind kinda’ woman; always was, always will be!

Anyway, the ‘woke’ crowd skewered me on Reddit when I took issue with the Palestinian uprisings not just on campuses but all around the world and my statement was that you cannot habituate people that are unhabituate-able; as in, Muslims move to Western countries with NO plans on assimilating.

The real plan is to overpower in numbers, then violence should we not capitulate. The general consensus of the Muslim males in particular, do not care for the people of the West, we are merely a means to an end – total domination of America and all she has; however, they have counted out the Chinese who have spent a considerable amount of money on acquiring this country; not just farmland, but they are buying not just condos in NY, but whole buildings; they own either all or almost all ports in SF and maybe ALL ports in CA, and then we can mention all the politicians they own!

China may wait to see how far the Muslims push to overtake various, strategic counties/cities first then make a move on the whole state if they use violence to reduce our numbers; just look at what Belgium, Germany, France and Britain are going through with them; and not just the Muslims from the usual places but the Somalians or Syrians and Pakistani men – all of whom are in HOST countries that are paying for every need at the expense of their OWN people!!!

Every time I hear about another gang rape of either a teen/young adult or child committed by an illegal, all I can think of is how they shouldn’t have been here in the first place, and now we will pay for their housing in a prison somewhere where they get appeals and an attorney all of which we pay for, not to mention the government assistance their family will receive; I have heard stories, that is why I’m so crazy for Viktor Orban and the way he controls the borders of his country and how he protects his people! It was too funny the way he shut Angela Merkel down when she thought she could strong arm him into allowing all those Muslims to storm his gates!

I believe it was Ireland that is having a Muslim problem and it was said that if not changed soon, Muslims will overtake them in the number of births and not leaving, thereby establishing roots while the native Irish, German, French and British birth rates plunge. They do NOT plan on assimilating – this is an occupation and by the time we organize, it will be too late. Already they are entering into our lower government positions and will move up and through until they reach a position of power that could cost us and our families’ lives.

Even in their Muslim homelands they have no ‘true’ peace so our countries should offer sanctuary without thought because they were the “called out ones” the people God chose to inform the world of the way. The Muslims will never assimilate into Western culture; on the contrary, parents very often do not allow their daughters to date an American and nearly all males of this culture would love nothing better than to have Sharia Saw be legal here like it is in their country. And, they have actually killed family members because of some broken rule of co-mingling with anyone outside of their own people. (According to the United Nations, Muslims “Honor Kill” 20,000 women annually.)

I just go by what I see, research and read about the people/countries that are all around me so I know what I’m dealing with. It’s called being proactive and I think we are in for a bumpy ride! Thank you for your excellent piece! Laura

If an average American citizen can see what’s happening, why can’t 535 members of Congress “see” it, and stop it? Again, we need a total “shut down” of all immigration into America. We must demand only “English” be our national language. If guys like Kahlil or Garcia don’t like our country or wave the Hamas flag…deport them.

Over the weekend, a major network reported on skyrocketing teenager suicides, lack of self-worth, and a general sense of malaise for millions of high school students across America.

A mind-numbing: “10,000 teens commit suicide each year. Over the past 25 years the rate of teen suicide has increased 300 percent. Suicide attempts occur more often in females than in males, the ratio is 9:1. Girls who attempt suicide tend to overdose on drugs or cut themselves.” (Source: www.smith.edu)

“In the United States, Drug Overdoses Are The Third Leading Cause of Death in Adolescents in 2022. From 2019 to 2022, the rate of fatal drug overdoses among U.S. adolescents (age 13-17) more than doubled.”

Researchers estimate that from 2006 to 2016, the total amount of money spent by Americans on these four drugs fluctuated between $120 billion and $145 billion each year. By contrast, a different analysis finds that spending on alcohol in the U.S. was estimated to be $158 billion in 2017. Those drugs are: fentanyl, heroin, Methamphetamines, cocaine. In other words, millions of people chose mind-altering states of being that were addictive and detrimental to their minds.

Those drugs and those figures accelerated during 2021 through 2024, during the Biden open borders tenure. The drug cartels enjoyed an open season for drug distribution to our youths.

The United States has the highest rate of drug overdose deaths out of 30 countries, according to a report from the health nonprofit the Commonwealth Fund. March 17, 2025.

Without a doubt, parents, teachers and leaders face troubling times in 2025. Every time you turn around, another school shooting blazes across the evening news. A majority of American students cannot read at their grade level. Some nut cases drive their cars down crowded streets to kill a dozen people.

Over the weekend, a minority teen, after committing a robbery, attempted to allude the police instead of staying in his car. The police shot him. The next day, his father ran down and killed a police officer directing traffic for vengeance.

A 19 year old teenager attempted to kill President Donald J. Trump by firing from a rooftop with a high-powered rifle equipped with a scope.

You could name another dozen violent incidences in your state, especially if you live in a big city.

What’s causing America’s moral, ethical and spiritual decline?

Are the ubiquitous violent video arcades in every city, and available for any kid’s computer to blame? Are the never-ending stream of violent movies to blame? What about the dozens of TV cop programs where all you see are guns drawn and firing? Is it the 50 percent divorce rates in America? Is it the mind-altering cell phones kids are addicted to 4 to 8 hours a day? Is it the lack of discipline by parents or schools that generates a loss of a sense of personal accountability or personal responsibility for one’s actions?

Whatever the reasons for unending youthful turmoil in 2025, we adults need to gather together to discover the root causes of SO MUCH youthful anger, pain, loneliness, poor educational achievement, teen pregnancies, and violence.

As a retired educator, and a person who arrived on this planet with a good mother and father, I think we need to provide “Marriage Classes” for couples contemplating a life together. They need to discover if they are fundamentally compatible as to: personality compatibility, sexual compatibility, religious compatibility, interests compatibility, financial compatibility, educational compatibility, spending compatibility, and several other aspects that lead to a healthy lifelong relationship.

Next, we need all couples to pass a “Parenting Class” in order to discover the best methods for parenting children. Another course is, “Love and Logic” as to rearing teenagers. Everybody needs a peaceful and civil upbringing.

Meeting in September and getting married in June doesn’t allow either spouse to discover if he or she enjoys longterm compatibility. From this educator’s experiences, your kids deserve to have you both together during all of their formative years. A divorce destroys a child’s sense of trust, being loved, structure, security and emotional makeup. One of the best books on how to enjoy a happy marriage is: Are You The One For Me? by Barbara DeAngelis. It will tell you whether or not you stand a chance at a successful marriage. For men and women, How To Deal With 21st Century American Women—Co-Creating A Successful Relationship by Frosty Wooldridge. If couples would read those two books, marriage success rates would jump to 80 percent.

While you might want to delve into how to make America’s youth emotionally and spiritually healthier, it gets down to what I call, “Self-worth and self-confidence are my two greatest possessions.”

As a teenager, my father and mother instilled in my brothers, sister and me, a sense of “HIGH SELF-ESTEEM.” Whenever I faced a rough patch at school or sports, my dad would put his arm around my shoulder, “Son, if anyone can succeed at that task, YOU can do that! I’ve got faith in you.” He gave me a sense of solid self-worth and self-confidence that remains in my heart, mind and soul to this day.

When we were kids, if we hurt ourselves, my mother would pick us up, hold us, and make sure we felt safe and secure in her love and caring. Her sense of security has remained with me all my life.

While these times in 2025 appear to be more chaotic and more violent along with being more confused, when a child has a sense of high self-esteem, self-worth and self-confidence—that child will pave his or her way toward life and all its challenges.

“Children need love, especially when they do not deserve it.” —Harold Hulburt. “I may not be able to give my kids everything they want, but I give them what they need: love, time, and attention. You can’t buy those things.” —Nishan Panwar

“One of the most important things parents can do is to tell your children true, positive statements that they can repeat to themselves. For example: Your smile makes me happy. You are an interesting person who is going to do great things.”

“Understanding yourself is the cornerstone of emotional maturity.” “Maturity is not measured by age, but by the acceptance of responsibility.” “Letting go of grievances is a hallmark of emotional maturity.” “Maturity is understanding that not every action requires a reaction.”

During an interview with a big network, the host asked U.S. Senator John Kennedy (R-LA), what he thought about Alexandra Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) being named as the front runner for the democrat party for the presidency in 2028.

He answered, “Well, she has the brains just about even with a billy goat and the voice of a mockingbird.”

She possesses the intellectual talent of a snail and the common sense of a cricket. Yet, AOC hates Trump with a vengeance. She’s a committed socialist who jets around America condemning all of Trump’s accomplishments in the past 100 days. She stands for men competing against women in women’s sports. Thus, she wants all women to fail in the athletic arena. She hates Trump for sending an MS-13 terrorist back to San Salvador’s major prison where he can no longer harm anyone. She hates it that Trump has secured the borders. She supported and still supports the 15 million illegal border jumpers. In other words, she loves illegal aliens, terrorists and men beating up women in women’s sports.

What has she accomplished in her four-year tenure in the House of Representatives? Answer: NOTHING!

House Member Ilhan Omar (D-MN), an immigrant from Somalia where, if you’re a woman, you’re half the value of a man, you suffer female genital mutilation before age nine, you are forbidden to be educated, you have no choice of a mate, and you can be honored killed in a second by your husband or brother—condemns Trump at every speech she gives in public. In reality, she’s never read the U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights or the Declaration of Independence. She couldn’t pass a 9th grade Algebra I test to save her life. She married her brother to help him gain entrance to America—-which she should be deported for breaking our immigration laws. But, being a minority, black and a female, she’s immune from prosecution. If she had her way, she’d turn America into Sharia Law. That’s her final intention. She wants Trump to fail. During October 7th slaughter of Jews in Israel, her constituents chanted, “Death to America”. Same thing in Detroit with House Member and Muslim, Rashida Talaib, “Death to America.”

Governor Gavin Newsom of California, with $76 billion in state debt, failing schools, destroyed medical systems, crime everywhere—-spent $25 million to “Trump-proof” his 4.0 million illegal aliens from deportation. In other words, Newsom’s doing everything to help law-breakers continue to break the law. He wants to defeat his own state and continue California’s slide into a third world country—where poverty, homelessness and illiteracy become the norm. Newsom stands against everything about Trump.

Then, you’ve got two female democrat governors in Maine and Massachusetts that want to beat Trump in court by mandating that biological men can beat up, hurt, destroy and conquer biological women on the sports field, tennis court, volleyball court, wrestling mat, pool and everywhere else. In other words, women helping women fail and be hurt in the process. It makes no sense, yet democrats want women to fail. They want America to fail. They want insanity and stupidity to prevail.

What about the ACLU? Formerly, it stood for the individual rights of American citizens. Today the American Civil Liberties Union takes Trump to court to bring back terrorists into our midst. They are stopping Trump from sending MS-13 drug dealers and TDA terrorists out of our country. In other words, 270,000 drug overdose deaths in the past four years of the Biden open borders session—-wasn’t enough for them. They want more drug dealers and terrorists within our country. As Senator Kennedy said, these people possess the minds of billy-goats and voices of birds.

If every one of those democrats had birthed/raised a child named Laken Riley, who was killed and mutilated by an illegal alien, would they still be screaming to keep all of those criminals within our society? Millions of Americans have been adversely affected by four years of border insanity, yet democrats want more of it. But why? What provokes such insane thinking?

What about the tariffs? We owe China over $1.3 trillion in trade deficits. We’re screwed by tariffs in all those countries that are taking advantage of us. Trump wants to level the playing field, but you’ve got the “Legacy Media” giving 92 percent negative coverage on Trump’s equalizing tariffs. No wonder the American public does not trust NBC, CBS, ABC, MSNBC, CNN and NPR. They report in favor of liberals who miserably failed the American people for the past four Biden years.

They covered up his Alzheimer’s Disease, plain and simple. Whether it was Jake Tapper, Jonathan Karl, David Muir, Norah O’Donnell, Lester Holt, Scott Simon, et al.—-they all lied by omission. It’s the greatest scandal in American history.

What about “law fare” people trying to jail Trump by a bunch of liars, cheats and thieves like Alvin Bragg, Fani Willis, Letitia James, and the rest? Now, the law is coming down on Letitia James for her own cheating and lying. Ah, Karma is a b*tch!

Almost beyond ironic—U.S. AID milked the American public for 50 years by soaking taxpayers out of trillions of dollars. And yet, everyone screams at Elon Musk for exposing the fraud on levels never heard about in American financial history. The Deep State bureaucrats don’t want anyone to expose their “Slush Fund” paid for by you. How do you think we accumulated a $36 trillion national debt? Answer: politicians!

Then you’ve got the daily TV show, “The View”. It consists of some of the greatest peanut brains ever to speak on national television. Whoopi Goldberg, aka, Cayrn Johnson, hates anyone who is white and anyone who is conservative. Nonetheless, she enjoys a $67 million bank account from all of us white folks who watched her movies. And while Rosie O’Donnell moved back to Ireland, there’s no way Whoopi would move back to the Republic of Congo. No toilets or showers or food! Yet, the people who watch her and her colleagues, think she possesses a brain. Whoopi matches AOC in that department.

As General George Patton, WWII, said, “Politicians are the lowest form of life on this planet. And democrats are the lowest form of politician.”

Let AOC run for president in 2028. As with Kamala Harris, we would again become the laughing stock of the world. I rest my case.

Chief Seattle said, “The earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself.”

Fifty-five years ago, U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson watched with dismay how horribly humans were damaging our planet home.  He created Earth Day, April 22, 1970.  At the time, I participated at Michigan State University, but didn’t really “see” the damage being done to Planet Earth.

Plastics began their onslaught of our oceans in 1965.  But, not enough impact to be noticed.  Air pollution caused acid rain that killed our soils, but we didn’t do much to change that.  At the time, we had created over 40,000 chemicals, but no one noticed. The “Sixth Extinction Session” had begun in full-swing, but who notices a couple thousands species vanishing from the planet when their disappearance didn’t make headlines.  Gridlock traffic plagued NYC, Chicago, LA, Houston, and San Francisco—but no one cared.  By 1970, humans slaughtered 20 to 30 million sharks annually for “shark fin soup”, but no one thought about sharks.  The Amazon rainforest was being cut down and burned at 1.0 acre per minute…but again, if it’s out of sight, it’s out of mind.  In 1970, a mere 1.4 million people starved to death annually around the world, mostly in third world countries—-but again what could you do about it? The Peace Corps tried, but failed!

In 1963, my brother Rex and I began scuba diving all over the Gulf of America. From there, we dove into every ocean on this planet. We explored rivers and lakes.  Nothing beats seeing the magic of the world beneath the waves: whales, sharks, eels, dolphins, penguins, turtles, diving birds, Great Barrier Reef, Hawaii, and marine life in the Galapagos Islands. Just incredible to witness the Natural World underwater!

At the time, China neared 1.0 billion people along with India making its bid for 1.0 billion humans.  But, no one noticed.  America stood at 200 million by 1970, so what’s the big deal?

Paul Ehrlich wrote the Population Bomb in 1968, but again, if it didn’t affect any of us, so what?  At the time, the human population on the planet in 1970 stood at 3.5 billion people.

Human overpopulation stood as THE MAIN topic for that first Earth Day.  Everyone talked about TOO MANY humans at 3.5 billion of us—and all the damage we were doing to the planet.

WHAT DID WE DO AFTER EARTH DAY 1970 TO IMPROVE OUR HARM TO THE PLANET?

Answer: we accelerated our abuse beyond imagination.

What did we do about human overpopulation and our impact on the planet after 1970?  Answer: we jumped from 3.5 billion to 8.2 billion, currently. We added 4.7 billion humans. And within another 12-14 years, we’ll see 9.0 billion.  From there, humans will “try” for 10 billion.  Guess what? There are intellectual morons out there supporting humans to reach 10 billion.  In fact, there is one writer in America, Joel Kotkin who wrote a book supporting 100 million more people in America by 2050. He’s THAT stupid, THAT arrogant, THAT absurd!

If you notice—whether 60 Minutes, Terry Gross or Scott Simon at NPR, or PBS, or NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX or any other network—you won’t hear a peep out of any of them about America’s accelerating population growth—all of it brought about by exponential immigration growth. Those networks suppress any consequences of population overshoot, and they aim to keep Americans uneducated and clueless.

It wasn’t until 1983-84 when I took a bicycle trip around the world where I touched down on four continents.  That adventurous journey to see overpopulation firsthand knocked me upside the head.  China just about hit 1.0 billion along with India. I witnessed people stacked up on people beyond anyone’s comprehension in Europe,Canada and America.  Who could imagine expressways with 50 lanes in one direction, which is their reality in 2025?

While scuba driving the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, I noticed plastic containers littering the reef and ocean floor. In the Galapagos Islands, I saw more plastic crap washed up on the beaches.  In the Mediterranean, plastic bags looked like a new form of sea weed.

Did we solve air pollution over our big cities?  Have you breathed the air in Chicago, Denver, LA, Houston, Atlanta and most other enormous cities?  You would be breathing over 100 chemicals and particulate 24/7 from factories, Dow Chemicals, Monsanto, coal fired electrical plants, millions of cars and trucks exhaust, and millions of homes burning fuel.

How about those 40,000 chemicals in 1970? Today, try 84,000 chemicals and few of them are tested for long term consequences.  Monsanto and Dow Chemical poison the world with impunity. Notice “Bee Colony Collapse” everywhere you spread Roundup, Weed-b-Gone, and hundreds of other horrific insecticides. Worse, all of that poison ends up in our oceans.

Also, 40 years ago, 1 child in 10,000 births suffered Autism. Today, it’s 1 child in 36 births faces a life of Autism.  Do you think Monsanto or Dow Chemical care that Roundup and their other poisons are killing the Natural World and humans?  Answer:  they could give a damned!  That’s why our food chain provokes cancers, messed up biomes in our stomachs, and dozens of other skin and bodily disorders.

What about the oceans and sharks?  Today, as documented by Julia Whitty in OnEarth Magazine, we have been killing 100,000,000 sharks annually since 1990 with no end in sight. We’re destroying the ecology of the oceans. We’re bleaching the reefs with our carbon footprint.

What about that “Sixth Extinction Session”?  Most people don’t notice that we’re causing the extinction of 100 creatures 24/7.  The eminent Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson said that at our current rate of encroachment and poisoning of the Natural World, we will kill off 1/4 of plant/animal life by 2050 and as much as 2/3 of plant/animal life by the end of the century.  And, every year that we add 83 million more humans, net gain, that extinction session impact accelerates.

What about human starvation rates since Earth Day 1970?

“An average of 733 million people (1 in 11) go hungry every day. Half of all child deaths are linked to malnutrition. Nine (9) million people die from hunger-related causes every year.”

Can you imagine what those numbers will show in 2050 with another 1.0 billion added to Earth?  We’re talking starvation numbers beyond comprehension.

What about gridlocked traffic in our overpopulated cities?  Answer:  it’s only going to get worse as our 35 most populated cities will double in size by 2050 as we add 100,000,000 more people to the USA, net gain, within 25 years. Back in 1960, we burned 40 million barrels of oil worldwide, daily. Today, it’s over 100 million barrels of oil, 24/7.  It’s been reported that China will burn 90 to 100 million barrels daily by 2030-40.  (Source: The Long Emergency by William Howard Kunstler)

As we’ve tossed 170 trillion pieces of plastic into our oceans in the past 60 years, and another 8 million pieces of plastic daily into our oceans—do any of the leaders of the 190 countries around the world give a hoot? Are they starting recycling programs in their countries?   Answer:  that would be a resounding, NO! (Source: “Plastic in our oceans” NPR News, Scott Simon)

Here in the USA, a mere 32 percent of Americans recycle anything. Only six states mandate a 10 cent deposit/return law for bottles, cans and plastic containers.  Americans generate 268 million tons of trash annually.

“In the U.S., an estimated 140 billion drink containers (including bottles, cans, and plastic containers) are wasted annually. This includes approximately 74 billion plastic bottles (commonly used for water and soft drinks), over 50 billion cans, and nearly 15 billion glass bottles, all tossed into landfills or along highways.”

Obviously, this report covers a mere fraction of the damage humans are perpetrating onto this planet. We could speak to catastrophic climate destabilization that accelerates with each new figure of 83 million new babies added to the planet annually. Each of them burns fuel to create more carbon footprint.  We could cover the nightmare of fresh water being used and polluted.  We could report on the ground water pollution. We could talk about how our freedoms suffer more restrictions as we add the numbers. This report would terrify you for your children if more subjects were covered. (I’ve written a book about what we face: America’s Overpopulation Predicament: Blindsiding Future Generations by Frosty Wooldridge)

As to the quote by Chief Seattle, if we keep doing to this planet what we’ve been doing to it for the past 60 years since plastics and chemicals arrived, and we keep adding millions/billions more of our species—America and the human race face a sobering if not deadly future.

We, the American people, all of us, voted for mass deportation of 25 to 30 million illegal alien fugitives. We’re sick and tired of our own U.S. Senators and House Members flying down to El Salvador to re-import an illegal terrorist back into the United States. He would only be deported again because he is an illegal alien, MS-13 gang member as noted by two federal judges, wife beater, trafficker of illegal aliens, distributor of fentanyl, and not a positive contributor to our country.

How is it that an illegal alien who broke our laws seems to have lawful “due process” in our country when he’s a foreign terrorist? He has no right to “due process.” Even if he did, he would still be deported because he’s a criminal alien.

A fellow American, Merlin said, “We’re hearing from angry Americans coast to coast, outraged and frustrated by the Supreme Court’s recent decision to handcuff President Trump’s bold plan for mass deportation of millions of unvetted lawbreakers flooding our country. These illegal immigrants, exploiting our borders and falsifying asylum claims, are a direct threat to our safety, jobs, and sovereignty.

“The Left’s law-fare, from district courts to SCOTUS, is abusing flimsy case precedents to grant illegals due process they don’t deserve. There’s no constitutional basis for this—our laws, like the Immigration and Nationality Act, demand swift removal! Biden’s open-border disaster let in 10+ million illegals, with at least 70% fake asylum claims, clogging our courts for a decade. But here’s the truth: 80% of you, per Rasmussen polls, want these criminals deported NOW. We’ve got to act together to make it happen!”

Write this Open Letter to your senators and house member. Just go to their website, cut and paste, and give them a piece of your mind:

Dear President (Your senator and House member),

The American people are fed up. Our sovereignty is under siege by millions of illegal immigrants who exploit our borders, falsify asylum claims, and burden our communities with crime and economic strain. Rogue district judges, wielding baseless legal theories, grant these lawbreakers the same protections as U.S. citizens, defying the Constitution and the will of 80% of Americans who demand mass deportation, especially of violent criminals, per Rasmussen Reports. Under Biden, 10+ million illegal crossings since 2021, with 70% fraudulent asylum claims, have overwhelmed our courts, mocked our laws, and endangered our nation. It’s time to act decisively, outsmart the Democrats’ law-fare playbook, and restore America’s borders.

THE LARGEST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION INVASION IN HISTORY DEMANDS THE LARGEST ILLEGAL ALIEN DEPORTATION PROGRAM IN HISTORY

We, the citizens of America stand with you, President Trump, Tom Homan, Kristi Noem, and ICE to execute the largest deportation operation in history. We urge you to implement the following actions to secure our nation and honor the citizen voice—expressed through millions of emails, petitions, calls, and social media posts:

Mass Deportation Hearings: Implement group hearings in immigration courts for similar cases—criminal aliens, false asylum claims—to bypass Alien Enemies Act (AEA) legal hurdles and expedite deportations, clearing the 3 million-case back-log efficiently.

Expand Expedited Removal: Enforce the January 21, 2025, Federal Register notice under INA § 235(b), applying expedited removal to aliens within two years of entry nationwide, targeting millions of recent illegal entrants while avoiding constitutional challenges.

Enforce Executive Order 14159: Make non-compliance with EO 14159 (Jan. 20, 2025) a felony, mandating registration of unregistered aliens. Issue immediate notices and arrest warrants by a set deadline for non-reporters, addressing low compliance reported by USCIS to locate and detain millions.

Enhance the AEA: Amend the AEA to designate illegal entry—via borders, visa overstays at airports, or falsified asylum claims—as a “hostile act.” This empowers the President to detain and deport without standard due process, bypassing activist judges. Work with Congress to ensure due process compliance to withstand court challenges.

Narrow Asylum Criteria: Redefine “refugee” under INA § 101(a)(42) to limit asylum to a SHORT LIST of citizens of non-hostile nations with U.S.-recognized persecution (e.g., North Korea). Explicitly exclude migrants from Mexico, Central, and South America, forcing them to seek asylum in culturally and economically similar neighboring countries.

Focus on New Entrants: Apply the enhanced AEA prospectively, using military-controlled Roosevelt Reservation land for rapid CBP/ICE processing to deter future illegal entries, avoiding retroactive legal quagmires that courts would strike down.

The Supreme Court’s alarming trend of siding with due process for illegals, as seen in Biden v. Texas (2022), and lawsuits like Espinoza Escalona v. Noem (2025) blocking deportations, reveal a judiciary out of touch with the Constitution as originally written and intended for the American people. The Immigration and Nationality Act empowers rapid removal, yet judges obstruct ICE’s mission. We cannot tolerate this abuse of power. Your administration must leverage military logistics, expand detention facilities (e.g., Texas’ 1,400-acre ranch), and fund this $45 billion operation to execute deportations at lightning speed. The American taxpayer—workers, families, and patriots—demands a secure nation free from unvetted, job-threatening illegal immigration.

Today, we call on every citizen to flood Congress with our demands, amplify support on social media, and rally behind President Trump, Homan, Noem, and DHS. Let’s back mass hearings, expedited removals, and a fortified AEA to deport illegals en masse, ignoring fake cries of “inhumanity.” The citizen poll is clear: millions stand united. Act now, and let nothing—judges, lawsuits, or critics—stand in the way of America’s future.

Sincerely,

Your Name

Dear fellow American citizen,

You need to speak up, write up, and stand up for your country. Cut, paste, and send this letter into your senators and House member. Thank you to Merlin for the bulk of this column. We either take action for preservation of our country…or consequences will visit us in greater tragedies, endless crime, homelessness, lack of American representation, schools trashed, growing loss of pride in America, and ultimately, an unsustainable civilization.

This entire situation with the MS-13 illegal alien Kilmer Abrega Garcia stuns any rational, reasonable, and common sense American citizen. He violated our borders. He beat his wife numerous times. She took out restraining orders against him. He trafficked other illegals without a license. Two judges deemed him an MS-13 gang member. He is not a citizen. He has no rights to ‘due process’ under our Constitution. He belongs in prison in El Salvador.

And yet, we’ve got a U.S. Senator Van Hollen flying down to the prison to tell us that that Garcia is “traumatized.” But when one of his own constituents, Rachel Morin, mother of five, was killed and brutally raped by an illegal, Van Hollen said nothing. He did nothing. He’s a political farce! And yet, the liberal talking-heads are telling us that if Garcia can deported, we all can be deported. I must admit that the talking-heads on MSNBC, CNN, NPR, and other “fake news” outlets prove themselves journalistic idiots.

We’ve got a mental moron House Member Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) telling us that we’ve got a criminal in the White House worse than Garcia. We’ve got another mental moron being touted as the next democrat candidate for president of the USA—Alexandra Ocasio Cortez who doesn’t know her butt from a hole in the ground. She’s beyond stupid…she’s a walking, talking vacant-minded helium balloon. And yet, crowds gather to hear her speak her vacuous stupidities. She’s about as qualified to become president as a grasshopper.

When you look out across the American landscape, especially our cities, you see total chaos, crime and craziness going on weekly.

Let me give you my credentials. I started out teaching school in 1973. In the summers, I moved furniture for United Van Lines. I trucked through 48 states and Canada. In 1965, I watched Congress sign into law the Immigration Reform Act that blew open the flood gates to our country. We’ve added over 140 million people within 60 years. It’s the greatest population growth ever recorded in the history of the world in the shortest amount of time. I watched this country grow in 1970 from 200 million to our current 350 million plus another 20 plus million illegal aliens.

I watched our cities across America explode with cars, trucks, houses, skyscrapers, freeways, toxic air pollution, accidents, polluted rivers, trash along our highways, horrendous gridlock and road rage.

We’re simply a civilization that has grown too large, too many, too big, too complicated, too fast, too chemicalized, and too much to fix any of our problems.

This past weekend, 16 tornados cut through the heartland killing a half dozen people, and destroyed dozens of homes and buildings. Why? There’s just too many people taking up too much space. And, “IF” climate change causes the severity and accelerating numbers of tornados, rains and flooding—- adding more people with more carbon output creates more aberrant climatic destabilization. And yet, no one connects the dots.

Look what’s happening to California. They face drought, fires, windstorms and massive destruction with their 40 million people. Those fires ravaged thousands of homes. Have you visited LA or San Francisco? I have for the past three years. When I was trucking, it was a nightmare. Today, it’s a triple nightmare. They can’t solve their problems today as to horrible roads, potholes everywhere, severe poverty, incredible state-wide debt over $76 billion, massive homelessness of over 250,000, incredible 4.0 million illegal aliens camped out everywhere, skyrocketing taxes…yet, California continues to grow by 6,550 people, net gain, daily. Virtually all of it via legal and illegal immigration, plus their birthrates. How do you think that’s going to end up? How do they fix their problems or solve any of their growing nightmares? Answer: they can’t, they don’t, they won’t. Their problems will grow beyond solving. In the end, total breakdown of civil society. (Source: California growth facts: www.capsweb.org)

What about New York City with 8.3 million people stuck in a concrete, glass and metal jungle? They suffer over 100,000 illegal aliens with no solutions. People defecting and urinating on the streets, and criminals stealing everything from stores to knocking people dead on the streets. They cannot medically serve their own citizens let alone the overwhelming needs of the illegal migrants. Schools? No education for our kids! NYC features 3.0 million rats running all over the place. Filth, disease and sickening insanity! Can they solve the rat problem? NO!

Governor Kathy Hochul mandated a $9.00 fee for driving into the city, and it’s supposed to mitigate the massive traffic jams. I remember them well in my trucking years. NYC must be one of the worst cities in the world for traffic. And yet, demographers project NYC to reach 9.4 million people within 25 years. In other words, no solutions, no answers, no way in hell of bringing about any kind of quality of life to “The Big Apple.”

Let me tell you about trucking through Chicago, “The Windy City.” It’s a nightmare to roll off I-80 and then, north into Chicago. The 18-wheelers have worn the drive lane into four to five inch grooves. It’s scary for cars to navigate through the grooves. You can lose control of your steering wheel in a heartbeat and be thrown out of the lane.

Then, of course, if you travel into South Chicago, you could be one of the dozen, up to two dozen, who get shot every weekend. At 2.6 million in Chicago in 2025, look for 10.0 million within 25 years by 2050. How insane is that?

How about the beltways around Atlanta, Houston, Miami, Dallas, Fort Worth, Denver, Cleveland, Phoenix and Minneapolis? Total, unsolvable, and complete automobile insanity! And yet, each one of those cities stands to add another 3 to 5 million people. I trucked through every one of those cities. Just sheer insanity!

What did those trucking years with United Van Lines show me?

It showed me that legal and illegal immigration have destroyed America beyond anyone’s understanding. It showed me that those “rats” in Washington DC WANT America’s civilization to collapse. It showed me that they WANT the Cloward-Piven Strategy to succeed. What is that? Answer: simply overwhelm our entire society with so many immigrants that it eventually collapses into chaos and conflict.

Again, I didn’t just truck for 25 summers around 48 states. I visited six continents in the past 45 years filled with billions of people. I’ve seen the sickening aspects of cities like Mexico City with 22 million people. God awful toxic air with every breath. God help anyone living in Beijing, Shanghai, Rio, Sao Paulo, Toronto, Paris, Mumbai, Hong Kong and another 20 overpopulated cities. I saw China. I winced at what I witnessed. I traveled into the sickening depths of India to give me a whole new understanding of humanity’s arrogance and ignorance. We’re talking filthy water, filthy food, filthy living, filthy trash everywhere, and millions living in poverty and filth—with no solutions. Note: 60 percent of people in India do not have access to a toilet! Over 4.0 million are born in the streets, live on the streets, and never enjoy a home, shower or toilet. Look it up!

What makes me the sickest of all? Answer: we’re handing over to our kids the same nightmare being lived in China, India, Mexico City and all the rest of this overpopulated planet. Ask yourself: why are millions clamoring to live in Europe, Canada and America? Answer: their miseries bring their desperation. But they did it with their profligate fecundity in their own countries.

Well, once we add that next 100 million into the USA by 2050 that will render our civilization unsustainable—where do you think you and your kids are going to flee “for a better life?”

What do we need? We DESPERATELY need a national discussion/debate on the future of America. Can we sustain the numbers? If we can’t fix our problems today, how will we fix them in 25 years with THAT many added people?

I don’t think anyone in America is ready for what we face. Worse, most Americans don’t have a clue as to what’s coming.

Part 2: It takes years to tear a country down. But once you move over the failsafe point, the decline accelerates.

As you can imagine, some very compelling letters arrived after “How to Destroy America” published this week. The one that grabbed my attention arrived from the Middle East. Yes, an American living in the heart of the beast. He gave me full permission to share his thoughts.

“I read your article today on how to destroy America, and I wanted to comment,” he said. “Below is a Paul Harvey clip from 1965 that illuminates the problem and illustrates how helplessly we have followed the path to destruction. The base problem confronting the West is the same problem that every dominant civilization has confronted throughout human history: success. It has been shown that hard times breed strong men, good times breed weak men, weak men bring bad times, and bad times breed strong men. No civilization so far has found a way around this fundamental truth. This inevitable process can occasionally be disrupted and slowed but never stopped entirely.”

Today, we see guys pretending to be girls. They’re giving psychologists headaches trying to figure out what kind of mental illness to categorize them. We’ve got “gays” parading around like crazy people wearing absurd outfits and performing sickening acts of decadence. Morality, children, ethics and rational behavior be damned! Anyone want them in uniform defending our country?

“America stayed pretty close to the soil for more than 150 years because the land was so huge and the taming of that territory required guts, determination, and persistence,” he said. “Starting in the early 20th Century, the US began to become predominantly urban, and the degeneration accelerated. Jefferson said

“When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe.” When a population ceases to work with their hands and works only with their intellect, they become soft. This is why I have profound mistrust of intellectuals, defined as people who produce nothing but ideas and pay no price if they are wrong.”

As we watch the national scene, we’re no longer close to the earth in our work or play. We live in concrete jungles with steel, glass and pavement. We’re separated from our roots. Look at the use of drugs, cell phones and social media to distract our young.

“I have been in this part of the world for 43 years,” he said. “I have done a lot of business with Europe, and my main observation is that Europeans are almost universally cowards. After the privations of WWII, all they wanted was to be taken care of. They do not have a tradition of personal independence and personal responsibility. Centuries of monarchs have reduced them to subjects. I was at lunch recently with my brother-in-law, who is a Brit, and a close friend who is Turkish. In our discussion, I mentioned that the Founders’ concept that ultimate sovereignty resided in the individual and not the government was reflected in the Constitution, which governs us (or at least should).

“The Constitution reflects a deep distrust of government and was a sincere effort to limit government to the extent that it would not be an interference in the lives of citizens, as the King’s dictates had been for so long. Unfortunately, over time, the lack of public vigilance has allowed the government in America to grow and possess enormous power. It is my hope that Trump can succeed in the destruction of the deep state and the entrenched bureaucracy. I am encouraged so far, but it is not enough.”

As his term advances, I would like to see..

♦ Outlawing ALL public sector unions. Collective bargaining has no place in the public sector. One works as a public servant for some altruistic reasons. If the compensation is not sufficient, go to the private sector. Trump is making some moves on this at the Federal level, but it needs to be universal.

♦ Trump must insist on term limits. This will be a struggle but he should explore the possibility of not letting Congress recess until legislation is passed requiring term limits and denying any sitting member of the legislature from receiving a pay raise that they voted on.

♦ The administration, in cooperation with the Supreme Court, should have an open and honest reappraisal of the Enumerated Powers outlined in the Constitution, and move to reverse all Federal involvement in areas beyond those powers.

♦ The administration should bring perjury charges against all sitting and past members of the legislature who voted for acts of Congress in excess of these powers.

♦ The administration should investigate and prosecute all members of the legislature who profited due to inside information or conflict of interest. Musk says he will address this issue.

♦ Laws must be passed stripping the Civil Service of ALL career opportunities. We do not need a professional bureaucracy. It has proven to be very dangerous and uncontrollable.

♦ The administration needs to repeal the 16th and 17th Amendments and the Federal Reserve Act. Wipe 1913 (a year that lives in infamy) out of our history. Before income tax, the government did not possess huge funds to pass out flagrantly. Look at all the nonsense DOGE has uncovered. How did the federal government get itself involved in huge grants to private universities??? Obviously that whole issue needs to be studied carefully, but if some form of income tax is still needed once all of this waste is permanently stricken, a flat tax system could be instituted and the IRS dissolved.

♦ Trump should withdraw the US from the UN and deport all UN Personnel. There are better uses for the UN Building than sedition against the US.

“The problem of Islam is a difficult one,” he said. “Western populations clutch their pearls at any attempt to interfere with religious freedom. They do this mostly because they are abysmally ignorant of history. Christianity has been at war with Islam for centuries. Because Islam has been backward for the last 300 years, we have been able to subdue them and dominate. What people are so ignorant about is that the Quran instructs the faithful that when they are in a weak position, they should be meek and subservient until they achieve an advantage, at which time they should strike aggressively to conquer the infidel. If you inform people about this, they will not believe what it said. It is too frightening and if believed would require action, which in turn requires courage which does not exist.

“At some point the West must recognize the fact that Islam is not really a religion, it is a fascist ideology, and it must be confronted with that in mind. I live in a Muslim country. My family are secular Muslims, but they know less about Islam than I do. They also refuse to face the truth about Islam and refuse to even address fundamental issues in the Quran such as abrogation. I have discussed the problem with family and friends many time and they know that the good guys within Islam are losing the battle with the Islamists, but they are completely helpless.

“The reason that they are helpless is that in the strict reading of the Quran, the Islamists are in the right. The Quran really does instruct the faithful to spread the word by the sword and slaughter all opposition. That is why it is suicidal for Islamists to be accepted in the West. Europe is approaching a saturation point and unimaginable violence is on the horizon. And yet, they are still too cowardly to face the bald fact. They are too lazy to have kids, and too spoiled to work hard, so they have become dependent on the Islamic workers for labor. God help them. In my view, eventually we will either exclude practicing Muslims or be faced with the same problem.”

This quote says it all: “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Quran should be the highest authority in America. And Islam the only religion on earth.” Omar Ahmad, Director of Council on American Islam Relations.

And THAT fellow American shows you what we face as a culture, language and freedom-loving way of life. When it comes to Islam, they only work with absolutes. “Convert or kill all non-believers.” Once their numbers begin to dominate, they enclave their power and their Sharia Law. It’s happening in Detroit, Minneapolis, NYC, Miami, LA, and many other cities. Just to give you an idea of their advancing power, in 1990, only 300 mosques in America! Today, 2,769 mosques dot the American landscape.

At the same time, Americans have become secular, but they’re not protecting their U.S. Constitution. Few have read it, and most don’t care. It harkens back to what Ben Franklin said when they asked him what kind of a government did the founding fathers create. He said, “A Constitutional Republic; if you can keep it.”

With Islam growing in numbers and power in Canada, Europe and America, they mean business; they mean Sharia Law; they mean the business of Allah. America’s decline and destruction creep ever closer to reality.

April 14, 2025

Over 20 years ago in 2003, Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm gave a speech in Washington, DC on how to destroy America.  He titled the speech, “The Eight Ways to Destroy America.”  I sat in the crowd, dumbfounded at his brilliant/sobering points on how to take down our country.  At the end, no one applauded because they were pretty stunned at his thesis—and for the most part, the actions of our U.S. Congress with mass immigration—were facilitating our destruction at breakneck speed.

Here we stand in 2025 watching our cities disintegrate into massive crime, homelessness, drug deaths into the hundreds of thousands, American students who cannot read, write or perform simple math, obesity, diabetes, millions of fatherless children, and a host of inner-city violence.  We’ve got foreign students dictating to us at our major universities as to exterminating Jewish students.  We’ve got men identifying as women—as they beat the crap out of our female athletes in sports. We’ve got over 30 million illegal aliens lurking in the shadows while many of them as terrorists are planning their next 9/11, whether big or small.

At the time in 2003, Victor Davis Hanson gave his own speech based on his book, MEXIFORNIA.  It showed a complete “takeover” of Mexicans of southern California.  Another book published in the past five years as to the phenomenon of Europe being “Muslimized” by mass immigration out of Africa and the Middle East.  Douglas Murray titled the book: THE STRANGE DEATH OF EUROPE.  I witnessed both southern California and all of Europe.  It’s a nightmare come true for them, and for us.

Recently, Victor Davis Hanson talked about “How You Can Destroy America” in a podcast.

First of all, what makes our civilization work?  Hanson said, “Their borders, finances, unity, fuel, and food.  If you had an agenda to hurt the United States, Joe Biden couldn’t have done a better job of destroying the viability of America in the past four years.”

The best way to destabilize America would be to do what Biden did, completely dismantle and dissolve America’s borders. Just let anyone come across illegally, without warrant, and invite any number of terrorists who would like to repeat another 9/11 on a larger or smaller scale.

What about those 12 to 15 million border violators? They cost you, the American taxpayer, over $150 billion annually to care for them.  It cost your kids in failing schools.  It cost you in failing medical systems. It cost you in over 800,000 homeless Americans who cannot find a job or rent an apartment.

How else would you destroy America?  Easy, print more money. Increase inflation. Increase the $36 trillion federal debt to $40 trillion—which is where it’s headed.  You’re already paying $3 billion in interest every single day of the year!

How about killing America’s nuclear energy, coal power, hydro power and more?

What about sewing disunity?  Right, in Dallas, Texas, our legal and illegal Muslim immigrants are repeating what happened to Detroit, Michigan by creating a separate 400 acre Islamic City for Muslims only. It will feature mosques, a wall around it, shopping centers and homes—all built to enclave Sharia Law.  If you tried to do that in any Islamic country, you would be decapitated, shot or soaked in a vat of oil according the dictates of the Quran.   Please understand that such enclaves are nothing less than Islamic Fortresses meant to take over territory.  We did it to the Native Americans, and now, the Muslims are doing it to us—at our invitation, or should I say, The Swamp in Washington DC?!

Another aspect of disunity would be creating D.E.I. or Affirmative Action to promote individuals on the color of their skin or their ethnic group as to quotas rather than merit, education or excellence.  Such disunity undercuts the quality of excellence in America’s standards. In fact, it dissolvers our excellence into mediocrity, illiteracy and poverty.

Then, we could predicate higher education based on quotas for race, or color, or skin pigment rather than intellectual excellence.

You keep doing that long enough, and you degrade a first world country into a degraded third world country.

Hanson continued, “After 7,000 years of civilizations, we change two sexes into three sexes.”

Let’s allow biological men to compete in women’s sports to create enormous tension, disunity, confusion, anger, frustration and sheer resentment as to the unfairness of all of it.  This transgenderism is destroying women’s lives at a prodigious rate of speed.

Hanson said, “If you wanted to do all these destructive things, you couldn’t have done a better job than what happened under Biden/Harris from 2021-2024.”

Much like in Governor Richard D. Lamm’s speech in 2003 in Washington DC, Victor David Hanson adds other consequences we never faced back then.

And, the Grand Daddy of our immigration crisis stems from the fact that demographers predict no less than 60 million more people added, net gain, by 2050.  That’s the low estimate.  The middle estimate stands at 75 million. The top estimate runs us up over 100 million more people, net gain.  Any way you cut it, the numbers prove ugly, unmanageable, unsustainable and totally will turn our quality of life into a quagmire of life for all Americans. Those numbers are going to degrade everything in this country of ours.

When you toss in all those 430 different languages, you’ve got trouble.  When you toss in those millions of Muslims, you’ve got a growing nightmare of a religion that arrives to subvert our way of life and turn it into Sharia Law. When you realize we endure 80 million foreign born legal and illegal refugees already here, you’ve got one devil of a problem.  When you realize the conflicting cultures, religions and world views we’re importing, it will become impossible for America to survive as a viable civilization.

So, what do we do?  Answer: we start demanding a 10 to 20 year pause for all legal and illegal immigration.  It’s that simple, that smart, and THAT sensible.

Why?  Because there is no way we can ever solve the 800,000 homeless Americans by piling more of the world’s poverty-stricken and illiterate refugees onto ourselves.  There’s no way to solve our educational failures by tossing more refugee children into our classrooms.  There is no way to solve our gridlocked cities by adding millions more cars and trucks.  There is no way to solve our air pollution by DOUBLING the populations of our 35 most populated cities.  There’s no way to solve our water shortages by adding millions more people using water.

Eleanor Roosevelt said it best, “We must prevent human tragedy rather than run around trying to save ourselves after an event has already occurred.  Unfortunately, history clearly shows that we arrive at catastrophe by failing to act when we should have acted.  The opportunity passes us by and the next disaster is always more difficult and compounded than the last one.”

How can America be destroyed?  Answer: it’s being done very effectively by our own leaders in The Swamp of Washington DC.

“I’m tripping into the vicinity of being an old man.”

Instead of raging against all the bad news in April of 2025, how about each of us contemplating our own struggles while living in America, especially us baby boomers. We’ve lived through some pretty amazing moments since WWII. I don’t have to name them because you all know them from living through them.

Today, I skied at 12,000 feet over Parsenn’s Bowl at Winter Park, Colorado. Across from the Panoramic Ski Lift when I jumped off at the top, a bluebird sky revealed the grandeur of the Continental Divide with 13,292 foot Parry’s Peak piercing the frigid air right in front of me. I sucked fresh, clean, energizing mountain breezes into my lungs before I cut left for a glide down that pristine mountain that I’ve skied for 50 years.

For my fellow 1965 high school classmates, this is not about ‘me, me, me’ or ‘ego’ or any of that stuff. I’m TOO old to worry about conceit or self-absorption. This is just about recounting moments of my life, because I know the adventure is soon coming to an end. If you find this account amusing, you might write one of your own. I’d like to hear every story of every high school graduate. What did you do with your life? Obviously, we boomers lived some amazing moments on this planet before what Charles Lindbergh called, ”Death, the last great adventure.” I wish you well in 2025. This is Frosty ruminating about old age. Oh, I’ve got another 10 years in me!

This winter, I stepped into my 78th birthday, same day as Paul Newman’s. My wife Sandi and I took a hike at 9,000 feet in a dazzling snowstorm on Genesee Mountain near our house. Snow covered everything with a magical white blanket. We ate a quiet dinner by our fireplace that ended with a cupcake with a candle poked into the top of it…to make it easier to blow out and make a simple wish. “Please God, grant us good health in the coming years and health to all our friends and family.”

As it is, I pray each day for world peace, health for everyone, tranquility for America, and I wish every human being the very best in his or her own journey. After these 78 years of world travel, I know most human beings try to live as decently as possible. For the ugly humans in the world, I wish them commensurate Karma.

Because of a life lived with extensive adventures, I never suffered a mid-life crisis. Every time I hit 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70th year birthdays, I traveled in some for-off lands such as Antarctica or cycling across the Outback, or exploring India, or standing on the Wall of China. Each decade brought astounding moments whether scuba diving off the Galapagos Islands or the Great Barrier Reef or riding my bicycle across some continent or around it.

During those years, I became an U.S. Army officer, teacher, United Van Lines truck driver, magazine-writer-photographer, dance teacher, bartender, cardiac catheterization medical tech, safety director, personal trainer, ski instructor, heavy equipment trainer, house painter and roofer. I raced in 81 triathlons. Ski bummed for two years. Backpacked into big wilderness regions of Alaska, South America and the Himalayas. How about 15 bicycle adventures coast to coast across America? That bicycle trip from Nord Kapp, Norway to Athens, Greece stands tall in my memory. All those jobs and adventures created 17 published books, and more to come.

Yes, I know delicate work and mostly, I know hard work. In the end, it was that brutally hard labor of moving furniture for United Van Lines at 90 to 100 hours per week that launched me toward my world travels. And you know what, I am thankful for that opportunity.

With those last five decades, it’s been a blast, but now, I’m tripping into the vicinity of being an old man. It’s an age where nothing works, and everything hurts. Darnedest feeling to cut loose from the powers of youth where I enjoyed boundless energy, a spirited body and the next high adventure somewhere on this planet!

In my front room, I enjoy a large cabinet with a “Memory Shelf” of 55 years of adventures across six continents. Pictures and little things collected along the way.

Jack London said it best, “I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man/woman is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.”

That quote is pegged to my cork-board and I read it every day to infuse my being with its energy. Several others inspire me, too. I read them often to keep my mind right. Poet Jack Gilbert said, we all face “the ruthless furnace of this world.” You can either navigate the generated heat or you can allow yourself to be cooked. I chose to work hard, play hard, honor all life and maintain optimal integrity in the “ruthless furnace of this world.” So far, so good.

On the sobering side of old age, from my high school graduating class in 1965, over 20 have died for various reasons: Vietnam War in the 60’s, heart attacks, cancer, diabetes, suicides, drug prescription reactions, car accidents and other reasons. Our class president Billy Canon and his wife Jill died in their 60’s. I miss them. The Student Council president Judy died of ovarian cancer in her 40’s. Our top basketball athlete Scott McLennan died of lung cancer from smoking. How is it that they died so young and the rest of us keep living? Where’s the fairness? Answer: in this life, there is no fairness. Mostly, it’s the luck of the draw. You can be here today and gone tomorrow…in a blink!

As I look back on my life, I am thankful I didn’t get killed, maimed, poisoned by Agent Orange or incinerated by napalmed in the Vietnam War. The most thankful day of my life remains my honorable discharge date out of the U.S. Army on June 13, 1971. I had seen so much death and mutilated bodies…it was constant depression for me. When I visit the Vietnam Memorial Wall in Washington DC, I rub my hands over the names of four of my old friends and weep uncontrollably. They never got to enjoy school, romance, wife, kids, family or fishing on the lake. Their lives were cut short by politicians, the Military Industrial Complex, liars and bankers. May LBJ, Nixon and Westmoreland rot in Hades.

Of course, I married right out of college to a fabulous lady who possessed a totally different lifestyle than me. So, after three quick years of mutual frustration for both of us, we shook hands and pursued our chosen lives. She loved elegant hotels and clothes. I loved tents, sleeping bags and campfires. Thankfully, we avoided children, so we went our own ways without burdens. I am happy to say that she lived a highly creative life as a successful artist and art teacher at a college. She finally married the perfect guy for her lifestyle. I am thankful because everyone deserves to live a happy life.

Late in life, I met and married Sandi, who loves to camp, dance, ski and laugh. A-men! Everyone deserves to find their best mate. I hope we humans get serious about our home planet, it’s sacredness and beauty. I’m looking forward to bicycling the Lewis & Clark Trail from St. Charles, Missouri to Astoria, Oregon some 4,100 miles. Sandi will ride with me along with a few friends. As long as I can pedal, I can enjoy great adventures on my bicycle.

And what about you at whatever your age? Are you enjoying a good time? Are you happy with your work? Are you interested in your life? Are you happy with your fitness and your body? What is important to you? Are you enjoying a life worth remembering? Because if you’re not, you can change it by choice.

I hope you’re having a blast. This life offers incredible opportunities for those of us living in free societies. I am hoping you have discovered your dream, are chasing your dream, have caught your dream, and are living your dream.

Captain Jean Luc Picard of the Starship Enterprise said, “Someone once told me that “time” stalks us all our lives. I’d rather believe that “time” is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.”

And, my own thoughts—Spirit of Adventure

“If the roar of a wave crashes beyond your campsite, you might call that adventure. When coyotes howl outside your tent–that may be adventure. While you’re sweating like a horse in a climb over a 12,000-foot pass, that’s adventure. When a howling headwind presses your lips against your teeth, you’re facing a mighty adventure. If you’re pushing through a howling rainstorm, you’re soaked in adventure. But that’s not what makes an adventure. It’s your willingness to struggle through it, to present yourself at the doorstep of Nature. That creates the experience. No greater joy can come from life than to live inside the ‘moment’ of an adventure. It may be a momentary ‘high’, a stranger that changes your life, an animal that delights you or frightens you, a struggle where you triumphed, or even failed, yet you braved the challenge. Those moments present you uncommon experiences that give your life eternal expectation. That’s adventure!” Frosty Wooldridge

Have you looked out across the American political landscape for the past three months? If you remember, President Trump won the popular vote, the electoral vote, the Senate and House. Such victories gave him a mandate to correct multiple problems with America’s finances, political standing and resurgence in the world.

Yet, you see democrats like Schumer, AOC, Crockett, Omar, Tlaib, Booker, Sanders, Markey, governors Newsom, Healey, Mills, mayors of major cities and many more—condemning and chastising everything from Trump’s massive deportation of MS-13 gangs to keeping biological males competing in women’s sports.

You see the (anti) American Civil Liberties Union suing Trump to bring killers, drug dealers, rapists and mentally deranged illegal aliens BACK into America. You see Trump being sued to stop the reciprocal tariffs that benefit American workers. You see Elon Musk saving Americans trillions of tax dollars and stopping fraud, but then, hundreds of Americans firebombing and burning Tesla dealerships.

California’s Governor Newsom, one of the most incompetent governors in America, with a state debt of over $76 billion—-passing a bill to Trump-proof his 4 to 5 million illegal aliens in that state—that cost California taxpayers $25 millions, more!. California has become an absolute financial, cultural and educational disaster. If you read Mexifornia by Victor Davis Hanson where California has been turned into another corrupt and poverty-stricken country like Mexico, or watch any of his podcasts, you begin to understand that liberal policies prove catastrophic for the average California taxpayer. You see their educational systems have become dumpster fires. And, yet, Newsom wants to keep 4 to 5 million illegal aliens leeching off the taxpayer for housing, food, education, social services, medical care, ESL courses, and free breakfast/lunches for millions of illegal students.

All of it at the cost of American students. All of it at a cost to California’s economy. All of it at a cost of billions in cash-transfers to foreign countries. All of it at a cost of the rule of law. At HUGE cost of what it means to be an American.

It’s evident that liberals in America do not want America to be FOR Americans, but want chaos, linguistic Tower of Babel, corruption and angry foreigners in charge. Look at the 400 acre Islamic Fort in Dallas, Texas, which is being paid for by middle eastern oil money to become a Territorial Marker for Islam in America. You better believe that savage religion has not and will not assimilate into the American Dream. They are here to supplant our Constitution and enforce the Sharia Law Dream. They’ve already conquered Europe. We’re next along with Canada.

One look at the intensive anger and violence at our Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Brown, Columbia and SO many other universities by anti-Jewish, pro-Hamas terrorists, and pro-Muslim violence foreign visa holders shows you that we Americans face tremendous internal conflict in our own country by those enjoying the freedoms of this country with no accountability. And no allegiance! And yet, the ACLU defends the violence of men like Mahmoud Kahlil. In other words, they defend a man who provokes violence against Jewish people. Such a man wants to exterminate all Jews from the face of the Earth. He must think we’re all a bunch of Muslim-lovers who want to decapitate every Jewish person, or in fact, anyone who doesn’t believe in THAT religion. Islam mandates in the Quran, “Convert or kill all non-believers.”

What’s the simplest method for stopping such provocative/violent behavior? Easy: send all those visa-holding student terrorists back to their own countries. That would put a stop to it, NOW!

What about the female fencer this past week who took a knee rather than fence with a biological male?

“Stephanie Turner took a knee in protest after standing on the piste before her bout against Redmond Sullivan at the University of Maryland. She was shown a black card and informed she would not be allowed to continue in the women’s foil tournament.”

Guess what? With that male competing, it wasn’t a “Woman’s Foil Tournament.” He was/is a dude pretending to be a woman. He wasn’t, isn’t and never will be a woman. He carries the telltale XY chromosome.

Why haven’t all women simply boycotted every athletic female sport where a man with a pair of testicles signs up to beat the crap out of female athletes? Why haven’t those transgender misfits/mentally ill individuals formed their own athletic leagues to compete against themselves to level the playing field? Why is it that 99.9 percent of Americans do not support biological males competing against women, but that .01 percent gains all the power?Did Stephanie Turner deserve a black card disqualification for standing up for women’s sports?

Why do you think female democrats hate women in women’s sports? Why would Maine’s and Massachusetts’ female governors defend men beating the crap out of women. What happened to their minds, their ethics, their sense of fair play? Whatever happened to “Common Sense”? Whatever happened to “Women’s Rights?”

Let’s examine Trump’s reciprocal tariffs. An incredible number of countries in the world throw up tariffs against American products. We’re being robbed blind by NAFTA. We’re being screwed blind by China. They tariff the daylights out of us. Canada and Mexico have taken advantage of us for decades as we buy from them, but they tariff us to death if we try to sell to them.

When Trump mandates reciprocal tariffs, the dems go nuts. The stock market fizzles when it should be celebrating. Are the American people supposed to suffer at the hands of the corporate elites? Who in the devil has been cheating all of us for so long that they think it’s normal?

What about DEI? It’s in violation of Title 6 of the Federal Civil Rights Act. So is “affirmative action.” DEI places unqualified individuals into an airline cockpit or graduates medical doctors into practice according to their skin color rather than their merit and intellectual excellence. Would you want a DEI pilot flying you across the Atlantic? How about operating on your heart bypass grafts? Is that a resounding, “NO!” Let’s face it; DEI is racist, discriminatory, against the law and has no place in America. It makes one race intellectually inferior and another race a victim. America offers equal opportunity, not unequal mandates because of skin color.

Yet, liberals scream about keeping it in place at high schools, colleges, workplaces and more. It’s about as stupid as allowing biological men to compete against biological women. It might be noted that if a trans-man tried to compete in women’s professional tennis, they would boo him off the court at the U.S. Open.

Finally, with Elon Musk cutting trillions of dollars out of U.S. AID’s fraudulent slush fund for the past 50 plus years, you would think taxpayers would cheer him onward. Instead, they are trying to destroy everything he’s doing for all of us. Guess what? Those very destructive people are democrats. At first, they bought his cars for saving the planet from climate change, but now, they’re burning them for saving trillions in taxpayer dollars.

Finally, do democrats want Trump and America to succeed in the marketplace, in trade, in keeping illegal aliens out of America, in raising our standard of living and returning to law and order?

Answer: apparently not! Apparently, democrats like how Joe “Alzheimer’s” Biden, and/or his handlers ran America into an ongoing nightmare.

It’s up to the rest of us with common sense, ethical standards, support of our police and firefighters, our military, our economics, and our way of life—-to move forward toward a healthy, prosperous and happy America.

Let’s face it, today we KNOW that the Deep State bureaucracy in Washington DC has been lying, cheating, screwing and stealing American taxpayers blind. Over the past 50 years, you have been paying into the U.S. AID slush fund for the benefit of every rat, scoundrel and politician in that Swamp called our U.S. Congress.

Not only that, you’ve got Social Security being paid out to millions of people who are dead, or over 120 years old. Millions of relatives keep signing those checks they have no business or right to obtain that money. Then, you’ve got the incredible fraud and waste of the U.S. Defense Department into the trillions of dollars. Notice that $850 billion a year use of your tax dollars has not passed an audit in seven years.

What about insider trading on defense contracts by Nancy Pelosi, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Hakim Jeffries and dozens of other U.S. Senators and House Members? They fund the contracts, tell their husbands or wives which stocks/shares to buy, and then, make millions of dollars off those contracts. They live the high life while you pay your tax dollars into Washington DC.

Back during my youth, the Vietnam War, the Military Industrial Complex corporate heads created the war, extended it for 10 years, and didn’t give a damn about 58,479 kids who got killed, and another 300,000 hideously wounded.

“The total cost of the Vietnam War is difficult to determine precisely, but the U.S. military share of the conflict from 1965-1975 was estimated at $138.9 billion, not including the cost of veterans’ benefits or the human cost of the war.”

As written in many books by soldiers and correspondents, the Vietnam War proponents lied to us about everything! We killed 2.3 million innocent Vietnamese people. We poisoned their land and rivers with Agent Orange. We fire bombed them with Napalm. We destroyed their villages and society. Why? To make Washington’s top dogs, RICH!

The same horrific consequences occurred with Afghanistan and Iraq. Over 7,500 combat troops lost their lives for nothing. Another 131,000 U.S. soldier kids committed suicide in those 20 year wars. It shows you the hopelessness they suffered at the hands of fighting an insanely religious enemy on his own turf. What did it cost you as a taxpayer? How does $6 trillion sound? That’s what the accountants report.

Much like Vietnam, the power elites did not want to win those two wars. Just let our kids get killed for your tax dollars into the trillions—and into M.I.C. corporate heads’ bank accounts.

During the last 50 years of U.S. AID, every thief in Washington DC has dipped his or her hands into your tax dollars. We’re talking trillions of dollars!

THEN CAME DEPARTMENT OF GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY

Bill Clinton talked about government waste, fraud and abuse of taxpayer dollars. Bush spoke to the waste. Obama talked about how to stop the enormous lying, cheating and thieving going on in all the big departments in government.

What happened? Answer: nothing! They didn’t do squat.

How much money has been sucked out of your wallet for U.S. AID since 1971? Try $6.1 trillion. That’s a lot of green backs. Where has most of it gone? Into the pockets of politicians and every lying scoundrel who could get his hands on your money.

Even someone as dumb as a “box of rocks” as Georgia’s gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams managed to siphon $2 billion out of the fund. She used the money to help poor people buy environmentally responsible appliances. Yeah, right! And line her pockets in the process!

You no doubt have heard or read about creating Sesame Street cartoons for people in Afghanistan for $20 billion. You’ve heard about condoms for millions of dollars for Africans. Please note, their religions don’t allow birth control, and they are too illiterate to read the instructions. How about sex change operations for people in Central America? How do you like paying for that? How about your taxpayer dollars going out to fund Hamas? Look it up!

“In 2024, the US provided $12.7 billion directly to sub-Saharan Africa, and billions more through global programs, with Africa being the primary beneficiary, totaling $41 billion in American foreign assistance.”

That’s makes about as much sense as pouring money down a rat hole.

Then came President Donald J. Trump with the most intelligent man on the planet to clean up the fraud, waste and abuse! Musk’s team has culled trillions out of the fraud going on in DC.

He stopped payment to all the “slush fund” projects that were beyond criminal. He defunded U.S. AID programs that were clearly illegal, criminal and abusive. He’s saving you in just the last four months, over $800.00 for every American taxpayer. He’s intelligently attempting to reduce the $36 trillion national debt. He’s been firing people who have not gone to work for five years since Covid, but have kept being paid for doing nothing.

And yet, you’ve got all these people sucking off your tax dollars crying, dancing and firebombing Tesla Dealerships and cars. You can’t make this stuff up.

We’re in a Catch 22 situation where our economy WILL collapse from the national debt if we maintain the fraud. Or, we support Musk’s team to trim the fat, trim the fraud and stop U.S. AID, and its liars from robbing us blind.

Thankfully, the American people realized that Biden’s four years were a criminal disaster beyond measure. They realized another four years under Kamala would have sealed America’s coffin. It’s about time Hakim Jeffries, Schumer, Pelosi and the rest of those congressional crooks hop aboard the Trump train. Tariffs, Musk, cutting fraud, law and order, sealed borders, deportations, prosecute and jail MS-13 members, life in jail for Luigi Mangione, kill a cop and you go to jail for life, rape a woman and you find yourself in the slammer for 20 years, drink or smoke weed and drive—in the slammer for no less than two years and lose license for 5 years on the first offense, 10 years on second…and you can think of more. Let’s make breaking our laws more prohibitive and consequential that even brainless morons won’t commit crimes because they know the slammer awaits them.

At some point, we come to terms with reality, or reality is going to come to terms with us.

In the past 50 years, I have bicycled the length and width of California seven times. I have motorcycled the coast 10 times. I have driven a car up the coast 8 times. I’ve driven a United Van Lines 18 wheeler dozens of times around California during my trucking years. In other words, I have seen California from every possible angle.

I’ve visited Yosemite, Prairie Creek Redwoods, Avenue of the Giants, San Francisco, Monterrey Aquarium, Big Sur, Los Angeles, End of Route 66 at Santa Monica Pier, Sequoia National Park, Death Valley, Sultan Sea, General Sherman, Golden Gate Bridge, Hearst Castle and dozens of other incredible landmarks in that once Golden State of California.

At the same time, I witnessed the decline from “extraordinary” to what it has become today: a growing third world trash heap of something around four to five million illegal third world refugees who have created an entirely “different” California.

Added to that, an estimated 250,000 homeless Americans as well as illegal refugees. They’ve set up camps in the canyons where they subsist much like Third World encampments that I witnessed in my travels around the world. Los Angeles features 175,000 homeless. San Francisco tolerates 50,000 homeless pitching tents all over the city, human waste, drugs, mentally ill crazy people, and a total loss of the rule of law and standards.

Both cities see crime rates into the multi-millions if not billions of dollars over the past 20 years. Illegal aliens that get caught and prosecuted for their crimes fill up over 50 percent of the prisons in California.

Drug lords such as MS-13 distribute tens of thousands of doses of heroin, Fentanyl, Meth, Ecstasy, MJ, and other poisons to kill American kids or addict them into uselessness.

“Since 2000, nearly 1 million people have died of a drug overdose. As of 2020, over 37 million people 12 and older actively used illicit substances. About 13.5% of Americans 12 and older have used drugs in the past 30 days. Another 25.4% of all users of illicit drugs suffer from drug dependency.”

Shoplifting has bankrupted dozens if not hundreds of convenience stores, mercantile stores, gas stations, drug stores and more. In the past year, Walgreen’s withdrew 17 stores in San Francisco alone.

Yosemite National Park hires full time “trash pick-up groups” to clean the enormous amount trash tossed by visitors. Additionally, the park suffers millions of visitors to a point that the animals flee the park to save themselves from the hoards of humans.

Smash-and-grab gangs dominate San Francisco and Los Angeles to a point that no one can park their cars to visit the trolley cars or downtown. If they do park their cars, they suffer trunks pried open and driver-side windows smashed where the thieves steal everything in the car within 30 seconds—and they vanish into traffic. I witnessed one smash-and-grab during my last visit.

The traffic in LA and San Francisco jams up every freeway, street and avenue to the point of paralysis even with 10 lanes going one way.

Crime dominates those cities to such a point because the legislature voted to not prosecute anyone who has stolen less than $950.00 in goods. Entire gangs come into stores and steal them into bankruptcy. Who mandates that kind of insanity? Answer: Governor Gavin Newsom and the mayors of those cities.

California politicians support illegal alien refugees with food, housing, schools, medical care, interpreters and more—so the state stands $76 billion in debt. All the while, those same refugees mail billions of dollars back to their home countries, annually. Even worse, the ones that do work, get paid under the table so that California features the largest underground economy in the world. California’s taxes at 13.3 percent are the highest in the United States. Citizens pay the highest gas taxes in the country at 70 cents a gallon.

California’s roads are among the five worst states in the Union. Maintenance cannot keep up with potholes and torn up pavement.

Twenty seven percent of the people in California were not born there. They bring dozens of languages that do not and cannot learn in our classrooms. Student test scores are in the bottom ten states in America.

California pays for the health care of illegal aliens into the billions of dollars. Millions of illegals cannot and do not pay their electric bills.

California is a dysfunctional and unsustainable society declining into collapse at some point. It’s SO BAD, somewhere around 10 to 15 million Americans have fled California according to historian Victor Davis Hanson.

California features more illegal alien refugees than any other state with NO PLAN on how to integrate them into our culture, language and working class. (Source: Victor

Davis Hanson Podcast) One out of three people in America is on public assistance in California. Twenty percent of California’s population lives below the poverty line.

I’ve watched this nightmare develop in California for the past 50 years with my dozens of visits. It’s SO BAD, please watch historian Victor Davis Hanson talk about it on his podcast:

To make it even worse, because of mass and unchecked immigration, California is projected to grow from 40 million to 60 million by 2050. They don’t have the water, energy or resources. And, they don’t have a plan! If ever one of America’s states resembled the same course as the H.M.S. Titanic, California would fit that historical nightmare.

And, you must understand, once a state like California collapses, places like Chicago, NYC, Detroit and Miami won’t be far behind.

We as a civilization need to check our course, and for sure, we need to change course. Wouldn’t you agree?

“Political liberty exists only when there is no abuse of power. But all experience proves that every man with power is led to abuse it.”

Benjamin Franklin – “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”

In Sam Jone’s new book, Five Steps to Kill a Nation, he forcefully argues that a republic cannot stand without a citizenry of moral and virtuous people guiding the cultural mores and checking the public servants when they stray from the principles upon which these United States were formed. These citizens must have a common and objective ethical standard on which to base their shared lives and prosperity.

Back in 1776, America consisted of a majority of farmers, ranchers, sheep herders, homesteaders, cattle and horses. If you farmed, you worked hard for your living and for your life. You learned common sense with each mistake you made while growing up. If you left the gate open to the pasture, the cows got out, and it took you an hour to round them up for milking. If you don’t keep the barn manure shoveled out, you can just about die from the smell.

Today, most Americans live in cities. They do not learn common sense, critical thinking and/or standards. Over 60 percent cannot perform reading or mathematics to the 8th grade level. Few comprehend a “hard day’s work.” Students today suffer “text neck” from bending down over their cell phones for four to six hours a day.

In the past four years, with the last president, ah, I forgot his name…because he forgot his name…we lowered standards, lost critical thinking, forgot “reason”, and abandoned “common sense.” The results exploded in the crime rates, drug overdose deaths, suicides into the thousands, shoplifting into the billions of dollars, stolen cars, thievery of all kinds, illiteracy exploding and another dozen problems. We lost the “rule of law” and allowed an invasion of our country like nothing ever before in history.

In place of critical thinking, politicians spun “political correctness” into WOKE, D.E.I., C.R.T., Transgenderism, men competing against women in women’s sports, affirmative grading, and allowing men to pretend they were women by “identifying” as women.

American Thinker writer Robert Smith wrote, “In our dawning Era of Common Sense, here’s some common sense. If you unchain junkyard dogs, you better be sure they won’t bite you in the rear. Democrats are being bitten in their collective behind lately. Not just once but repeatedly. Siccing DEI and woke dogs on folks — those not them — is turning on them. [Dems are being devoured by their own kind.]”

Smith continued, “In today’s hip, urban, dwindling Democrat Party, the dumb and untalented have been promoted while the best and brightest take back seats.”

Talk about a loss of standards! Let’s bring a national initiative to obliterate D.E.I. before America seriously declines into chaos.

You must ask yourself how did half the country vote for someone like Kamala Harris whose only qualification for the Vice Presidency showed up as “female and a person of color”? If she did reach the White House with such qualifications, it would have been a continuation of Biden’s Alzheimer’s Disease, incompetence and “someone” telling her how to run our country.

Let’s face it, “DEI dictates that only the most superficial qualities possessed by humans’ count. The focus is on skin color, gender, and fashionable sexual preferences. In practice, leaning on those superficialities has ruinous consequences. Innocents suffer, but now, so do Democrats.”

What really happened with that helicopter and airliner crashing at Reagan National Airport? Was it D.E.I.? What are the bets we’ll never be told the truth.

Let’s face it: Joe Biden followed his figurehead presidency by following his wife…because the fact remains…Biden didn’t know which way to exit the stage let alone any knowledge about the correct day of the week.

Common sense would tell you that we cannot not tolerate men who think they are women in our military. We need ‘TOXIC MALES’ in all our military branches to go out and kill the enemy. We don’t need guys in dresses “dancing” with the enemy.

Common sense dictates that we need a man like Elon Musk to cull the enormous amount of theft out of the taxpayers’ largess. And yet, when he brings his genius to discovering all the covert thievery, the liberal masses scream, cry, blow up Tesla dealerships, key Tesla cars, and make a mockery out of “law and order.”

MILKING THE GOLDEN COW TO OUR UTTER DISASTER

Smith added, “That doesn’t sit well with the progressive walking dead — from D.C. lifers to academics to corporate welfare-ists to grudging bureaucrats to 159-year-olds in Social Security’s database to rainbow-hued minions. USAID is more than a boondoggle. It’s emblematic of the extensive money laundering done in Washington. It lines pockets and is used to spread woke’s warped gospel across the world. Saving the planet comes in a distant second to keeping the federal milk cows pumping milk. Let the arrests roll across the fruited plain like thunderclaps.”

TALK ABOUT WOKE DISASTERS ACROSS THE BOARD

The latest “Woke” disaster, Snow White, budgeted at an estimated $250 million, but pulled-in only $43 million last weekend, may prove the tip of Mariana Trench in terms of woke and DEI folly. You can’t keep pushing men pretending to be women on Bud Light beer cans, or creating movies that do not jive with America’s culture and mores.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Maxine Waters (D-CA), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Hank Johnson (D-GA), and Jasmine Crockett (D for dumb) appear to be the next leading “WOKE” Congressional critters. Too bad all of them couldn’t pass an 8th grade math test or write a decent sentence. If any of them gain more power, they will trash the U.S. Constitution.

While in office, democrats lower every standard to a point that there are no standards. Do you think that’s any way to run a country?

“Whether it’s a sheepskin in law or Third World pottery, either opens doors to the oppressed,” said Smith. “Plagiarizing research is winked at if you fit certain categories. Ask Biden! Plagiarists are just striving to overcome historical injustices. Bullying Jewish kids on campus is okay. Hate speech is free speech, though when it leads to thuggery, well, it’s still labeled free speech. Campus nannies turn blind eyes.”

In the end, at least for this moment in time, enough educated/common sense Americans rejected the stupidities of “WOKE” and the rest of Democrats’ non-productive platforms. You rejected an unqualified female candidate for president. How would any of us have ever survived her snarky laughter for another four years? You rejected our country from being invaded. You chose the “rule of law” over the insanity of letting thieves walk off with $900.00 in goods with no penalty. You rejected giving illegal invaders free hotels, food and medical care. You rejected endless drugs killing your children from overdoses. You rejected shoplifting by throwing the little thieves in jail for long periods of time.

Let’s face, Donald J. Trump broke the wildfire of stupidities engulfing our nation in a mind-bending conflagration for the past four years. Today, we actually know who stands at the helm of the United States of America in 2025. He’s already gutting the stupidities of D.E.I., which in itself is racist, unfair, stupid and unethical. When it comes to jobs like air traffic controllers, airplane pilots, doctors, nurses and the like, it’s downright deadly. He’s got the most brilliant mind on Earth digging into U.S. AID’s fraud, cheating, lying and criminal financial activities on a scale unheard of in human history.

At some point in the next four years, we must “right the ship” of America. We must demand standards, common sense, ethical actions, and honest leadership by competent people in the Oval Office. We citizens want to know that our handywork and our taxes are spent to keep our streets safe, keep our borders secure, no more dangerous drugs in our schools, and some eggs in our supermarket coolers. We want our schools to teach our kids to read, write, work math, work computers, biology, history, health, sports and becoming a contributing American citizen via every kid’s personal accountability and personal responsibility. Let’s be proud of America and teach that pride to our kids. Let’s send the 20 to 30 million illegal aliens back to their own countries to solve their own problems in their countries.

We’ve earned citizenship as Americans whether we are plumbers, nurses, truck drivers, teachers, doctors, handymen, electricians, janitors, cashiers, construction workers, sewer cleaners, burger flippers or pizza delivery boys/girls. All those thousands of jobs that make America great are worked by Americans who make America viable.

We want ourselves and our children to “Live the American Dream.” That means a fair shake by our elected officials. It means honesty, integrity and common sense. It means that Democrats need to get off their fat rear-ends, quit whining and support what most of us want—love of our country, our future, our way of life, our kids, our freedoms, our educational systems, our police, our firefighters, and everything that makes our country the single greatest civilization, ever, on the face of the planet.

“America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand.” Mark Twain

Mass and endless immigration out of the Third World degrades America’s, and all Western Countries’, literacy and educational standings in the world.

As a former math-science teacher in middle schools and in the inner-city, along with being a college lecturer, I discovered that IQ’s, whether high or low, define a student’s ability and/or desire to excel in academics.  With an IQ over 110-120+, a student “wants” to learn.  In fact, nothing can stop his or her curiosity to learn, achieve and apply knowledge.  Such individuals become “critical thinkers” along with becoming engineers, doctors, inventors, teachers, entrepreneurs, nurses, leaders of industry and in the sciences.  Just about everything Western Countries enjoy in the 21st century stems from “brilliant minds” working their curiosities into inventions such as clean water, toilets, hygiene, sanitation, abundant foods, conquered polio, tetanus, created transportation, and much more.

Essentially, intelligence brought the human race out of the Dark Ages and into the Age of Enlightenment.

If you look on the world stage, every country’s collective IQ dictates its “modern” standing in the world.  If that collective IQ runs in the 70’s, its people suffer a lower standard of living, lower sanitation, lower food sourcing, lower educational achievements, and lack of modern freedoms.

China owns the highest collective IQ in the world at 107.  Ghana suffers the lowest IQ at 59.  Most African nations suffer 65 to 80 IQ’s. Somalia averages 67 IQ’s among its people. That defines Somalian immigrant Ilhan Omar’s basic intelligence level. (She’s a US House of Representatives member, but was not elected by Americans, only fellow immigrant Somalians.)

Before the Immigration Reform Act in 1965 that imported millions of refugees from all Third World countries, America’s average IQ stood at 100, which is a decent amount of intelligence in order to maintain a First World country. Today, our national IQ level stands at 97.4.  That’s a huge drop in only 60 years.  (Source for country by country IQ’s:

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/average-iq-by-country )

“72% of the world’s illiterates are in Africa. That’s out of 1.4 billion persons.  In 2008, nearly 796 million adults (17% of the adult population worldwide) could neither read nor write. Approximately two thirds were women. A large majority of illiterates live in Sub-Saharan Africa. Ten countries account for 72% of adult illiterates in the world. According to

the “2011 Monitoring for All Global Education” report from UNESCO, in the last ten years significant advances have been seen in education. However, there is a fear that it is slowing up. In any case, even today 43% of children with no access to schooling live in Sub-Sahara Africa.”   (Source:

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/meetdocs/2014_2019/documents/acp/dv/8-education_/8-education_en.pdf )

WHERE ARE ALL THOSE IMMIGRANTS’ ORGINS? 

What is the most important factor for a First World country to maintain its freedoms, its excellence and its success?  Answer: a solidly educated citizenry that “wants” to learn and grow.  It needs youth to excel in schools in the STEM subjects.  An intelligent and educated citizenry remains the ONLY way to maintain a First World country.

Last week on network news, you saw that over 60 percent of American 4th graders cannot read at grade level or perform math at grade level.  Eighth graders performed even worse.  Millions of our youth do not graduate from high school—-rendering them functionally illiterate.  “Every year, over 1.2 million students drop out of high school in the United States alone. That’s a student every 26 seconds – or 7,000 a day.”  (Source: www.dosomething.org)

We’ve got 45,000,000 (million) Americans and immigrants subsisting on food stamps and other welfare. The National Center for Education states that 43,000,000 Americans are functionally illiterate. They are too illiterate to participate in our society and/or contribute by working a job.  We’ve got millions of immigrants living on SSI welfare food, housing and medical care on American taxpayers’ backs. Of which, those immigrants did not contribute a dime.  They simply moved here from Third World countries. Minneapolis, Minnesota houses 125,000 Somalians who remain eternally on welfare and food stamps.  Same goes for 300,000 Syrians in Detroit, Michigan.

Sadly, if not sickening, millions of our minority kids in places like Chicago, LA,  Detroit, NYC, Miami and beyond, cannot and do not become educated citizens.  That lack a father.  They lack decent housing. They lack nutritious food. They lack afterschool guidance. Little wonder why drugs have killed over 300,000 in the last four years!  Little wonder why kids are shooting/killing kids in cities across America by the thousands.  When you’re poorly educated or of low intelligence, you revert to the lowest common denominator to solve a confrontation: violence.

All the while, we keep pumping 1.2 million legal immigrant refugees into America from all those countries that have failed because of very low collective IQ’s.

In other words, we have millions of functionally illiterate refugees, along with functionally illiterate Americans unable to perform anything more than driving a taxi, slinging burgers or sweeping floors.

“For example, at current legal immigration levels where the U.S. imports more than 1.2 million legal immigrants a year—at the detriment of American workers’ job prospects and wages—every American loses either a job or taxpayers pay for welfare recipients.”

Note once again, we suffer 774,000 homeless in America. We keep serving and caring for millions of legal and illegal migrant refugees without solving our own problems in the first place. Do you think that’s reasonable or intelligent?

All the while, we keep exploding America’s human population toward that magic number of an added 100 million more people, from 350 million to 450 million, net gain, by 2050.  Who on God’s green Earth thinks those numbers are going to keep our country sustainable as to water, energy and resources? Can you imagine our horrific loss of “quality of life” in America when those numbers manifest?

Here’s another beef about mass immigration: all the top scientists cry about “global climate change”, but they do not, will not, and NEVER speak to the fact of what drives it!  Answer: human population growth. For every added person to America, that person goes from a Third World minimal energy use—-to driving a car, or riding a bus, or burning energy in an apartment, using up more water, more food, and dozens of other consequences that burn oil—-that ultimately creates more carbon footprint, and accelerates “catastrophic climate destabilization.”

It’s almost like we’re “on purpose” destroying our own future. Or, we’re allowing those “intellectual” giants like AOC, Maxine Waters, Hank Johnson or Jasmine Crockett in Congress to continue destroying America for us.

Dear reader, have I made it plain that we’re in DEEP trouble?  How can I make it any clearer?What can I do to gain a greater voice on 60 Minutes, Meet the Press, Face the Nation, NPR, PBS, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, Joe Rogan and beyond to get this message out?  Can you write Joe Rogan to ask him to interview me?  He’s got a website that offers you to write him.  Can you write 60 Minutes and ask them to interview me?  60M@cbsnews.com   If we don’t create a national discussion/debate on what’s coming, our children are screwed. Would you agree with that fact?

Write these top journalist on TV and radio to invite me on their shows:

Megyn Kelly: megyn@megynkelly.com
Chris Cuomo: programming@newsnation.com
Clay Travis: clay.travis@gmail.com
Diane Sawyer: diane.sawyer@gmail.com

How do you get your mind, emotions and arms around the insanities gripping America? Every day in the news, you hear or read about peoples’ madness occurring in our cities that baffles your mind, cripples your sense of ethics and destroys your understanding of common sense.

That honor student named Luigi Mangionie walked up to the president of United Health Care—a shot him in the back several times until he died on the street. That left a mother and her children without a father. That kid killed a man in cold blood.

Even more insane, thousands of Americans posted $750,000.00 in cash to defend him in a court of law. How do you wrap your mind around that kind of insanity? In the end, he should be sitting in a jail cell for the rest of his life. Cold blooded murder!

But then, you’ve got Bryan Kohberger, who by all the evidence compiled, walked into a student house in Idaho and executed four young college kids. For all intents and purposes, he did it for kicks to see if he could get away with it. And yet, he’s got tens of thousands of dollars given to him to try to judge his innocence. Let’s face it, the same thing happened when O.J. Simpson killed his wife and the boyfriend, but O.J. walked free. Was that nuts, or what?

How do you intellectually digest THAT kind of insanity?

Look at the nursing co-ed at the University of Georgia, Laken Riley, running down a runner’s path, and murdered by one of 15 million illegal aliens and thousands of hardened criminals—set upon our country by Alzheimer’s patient Joe Biden, but no one in Congress did anything to stop the invasion in four years. How crazy is that?

And then, President Trump rounds up thousands of illegal alien criminals via Border Patrol’s Tom Homan, sends them off to jails in another country, but a U.S. judge blocks the Executive Order to deport them. Would that judge have made a different decision if he was Laken Riley’s father? Three other judges have blocked Trump’s deportation orders, too. Are they THAT stupid or THAT corrupt?

At the same time, the anti-American ACLU, that once stood for individual citizen rights—-fighting for criminal rights. More ironic, they place ads on TV for more funding. I would not give them a wooden nickel.

Why is it that we’ve lost all common sense in America?

You’ve got one of the smartest people in the world, Elon Musk, weeding out and cutting out all the corruption, graft and criminal waste of our tax dollars at U.S. AID, and multiple other government agencies—but internal criminal terrorists are firebombing his Tesla car dealerships. Does that mean they want more corruption, waste and fraud to continue with their (our) tax dollars?

Is that nuts, or what?

What about the fact that we spend billions if not trillions of dollars to fly to the moon and on to Mars, when we have over 1.0 billion human beings living in abject poverty on earth. We’ve got 4.0 million children under the age of 12 starving to death annually and 8.0 million adults. The misery is beyond comprehension, but do we solve THAT problem on our planet home? Of course not!

Then, you have to ask yourself, “Who in their right mind wants to live on the moon? Or Mars? Why would you want to live in a concrete bunker on Mars for your whole life? Anybody think that would be a “really wonderful experience?”

We’ve got 774,000 homeless in America, but spend billions on war preparation. Why didn’t we solve THAT homeless problem before we sent $200,000,000,000.00 off to Ukraine? Who in their right mind, with an ounce of common sense, keeps doing these really stupid things?

General George Patton said, “Politicians are the lowest form of life on Earth. And, democrats are the lowest form of politician.”

When you see the reports of the INCREDIBLE corruption in all our federal agencies, you cannot help but wonder who is running our country? Answer: crooks, swindlers, liars, thieves, gangsters, but mostly, politicians.

When it comes to absolutely insane craziness, we’ve got female governors supporting biological men beating the crap out of biological women in sports. Worse, those same women and men move toward the courts to support their insanity. How do you wrap your rational mind around THAT degree of stupidity, insanity, and madness?

How is it that the entire mainstream media covered up the fact that a sitting president, Joe Biden, for four years, suffered from Alzheimer’s Disease, and he could not govern our country, and relied on his wife and inner circle to cover up and fool the American public? We’re talking a level of journalistic corruption that will go down in the history books as the biggest scandal in American politics.

Why is it that our 30 million legal immigrants and illegal aliens have been sending over $800,000,000,000.00 (billion) in cash transfers back to their countries, ANNUALLY, but not a word written about it by the mainstream media? Source:

“International remittances have recovered from the dip in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Migrants sent an estimated USD $831 billion in international remittances globally in 2022, an increase from USD $791 billion in 2021 and significantly more than USD $717 billion in 2020.27 As in previous years, low- and middle-income countries continued to receive vast sums of remittance inflows, which increased by 8 per cent between 2021 and 2022 from USD $599 billion to USD $647 billion.”

We are being robbed blind, but we pay for their anchor babies, their breakfasts and lunches, their schooling, their medical care, and Section 8 Housing. We pay legal immigrants billions in SSI payments just for moving to America without any funds whatsoever. Examples are: Detroit Muslim population over 300,000. Minneapolis’ Somalian Muslim population at 125,000—all eternal welfare. You can chalk all that fraud up to our politicians in Washington DC. They party; we pay!

In 2025, we’re being “Woked” to death with absurdities beyond understanding. Instead of your mother, she’s a “birthing person.” We’ve got homosexual drag queens giving shows to grade schoolers. We’ve got 12 year old “trans girls” getting their breasts removed so they can identify as boys. Little biological boys are getting castrated so they can “identify” as a girl.

You, dear reader, can come up with more insanities that you’ve watched on TV or in the news. At some point, we need to come back to “reason”, to “rational thinking”, to “critical thinking”, to “common sense.”

Because if we don’t, our civilization faces some rough consequences in the years ahead.

Just for a moment, let’s separate ourselves from the troubles of Washington DC, world conflicts and the disarray that splashes across our television screens, nightly.

The one thing that our third president, Thomas Jefferson wrote, “Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”, continues to ring true in my mind for all of my lifetime. I am thankful for the luck and the privilege of being a citizen of the United States of America. That “luck” afforded me a life of personal choices and opportunities in whatever path I chose to live this amazing journey that all Americans may choose.

Therefore, at my advancing age, what have I done with my life? Was it meaningful? Did I accomplish anything of merit? Was I a kind person? Did I treat my wife well? Did I honor my friends? Did I support my community? Did I make a difference in the lives of the people I touched? Did I make the most of my “time” during my life on this planet?

It takes 60 seconds to make a minute, 60 minutes to make an hour, 24 hours to make a day and 365 days to make a year. What is ironic with the perspective of age, is that “time” flies by faster than anyone ever imagined. Before you know, those years piled up into a lifetime already past.

Captain Jean Luc Picard of the Starship Enterprise said, “Someone once told me that “time” stalks us all our lives. I’d rather believe that “time” is a companion that goes with us on a journey. It reminds us to cherish each moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we have lived.”

When I think of my youth, I am thankful for my luck of having had good, solid, loving parents. While we were strictly lower middle class, I always enjoyed a roof over my head, bed, toilet, shower, and food on the table. I attended average schools and played many sports. I delivered papers on my bike from age 12 to eighteen. Dad and mom were always proud of my siblings and me.

Tragedy did devastate my youth when my father died at the age of 46 when I was seventeen. His death wrecked my emotions, my mind, my spirit and my understanding of life. I questioned God, life and my part in it. Dad’s death took the wind out of my sails. It staggered me, and I can honestly say that his death changed my personality from high-spirited to a sobering and unique understanding that life is fleeting.

And yet, his guidance, along with my mother, who carried us onward, still guides me to this day. The pure goodness and tenacity of my father dwells in me for my entire life.

Whenever I faced a problem, he would put his arm around my shoulders, “Son, if anybody can do this, you can do it. You’re going to make a difference in this world.”

That stuck with me my whole life as a student, as an athlete, as a math-science teacher, as a cardiac medical tech, as an Army Lieutenant, as a college environmental science lecturer, as a United Van Lines truck driver, as a volunteer ski instructor for the disabled, as a husband, friend and stepfather. Dad’s guidance and confidence allowed me to continue my quest to become a writer and author.

I’ll never forget one customer that I moved from Detroit to Tampa said when I finished the job, “Frosty, thank you for doing an exceptional job with our move. But you just don’t seem to be a truck driver. What’s actually driving you?”

I said, “You’re right! I am a writer, temporarily driving a truck so I can pursue my dream of world travel and becoming a published author.” He replied, “I could see something different in your eyes…and now, I know.”

So, what about you? What about your life? What about your hopes and dreams? What about your path toward you gaining a “meaning for your life?” Are you having a good time? Are you tapping into the wellsprings of your creative talents? What makes your life worth getting up in the morning? Are you sitting in front of that TV set 4.1 hours daily like most Americans?

Henry David Thoreau said, “If you advance confidently toward your dreams, and endeavor to live the life which you have imagined, you will meet with success unexpected in common hours. You will pass through invisible boundaries. You will engage new and liberal laws. And you will live with the license of a higher order of beings.”

His words stare at me on my office cork-board for more than 50 years now. I’ve discovered that if I maintain positive energy toward my daily life, then, life feeds that energy back to me. In that line of “flourishing your mind”, such energies speak to your soul, to your spirit, and carry you onward toward your own destiny and toward living a “meaningful life.”

The Roman philosopher Epictetus said, “Tentative efforts lead to tentative outcomes. Therefore give yourself fully to your endeavors. Decide to construct your character through excellent actions and determine to pay the price of a worthy goal. The trials you encounter will introduce you to your strengths. Remain steadfast…and one day you will build something that endures; something worthy of your potential.”

To give you an example as to how he inspired me, it took me hundreds of rejections slips from my first eight book manuscripts, and 22 years before a publisher accepted one of my books. Had I given up, I would never have become the author of 17 published books, and two more on the way, I’ve shown my dad that his guidance paved the way for my tenacious literary journey. HowToLiveALifeOfAdventure.com

Mind you, it’s not important that you become a New York Times bestselling author, or an artist like Rembrandt, or one of the Beatles, or Taylor Swift, or Dolly Parton, or Shania Twain, or Karen Carpenter. It’s not important that you become a football star, tennis star, LeBron James, or the next Simone Biles.

What’s important is that you use your time on this planet to bring out the best in yourself. Live each day with zest, joy, energy and positive thoughts. Write a poem, sing a song, write a play, volunteer at your local food bank, take a walk in the woods, meditate, say a kind word to a cashier at the grocery checkout stand, eat a chocolate chip cookie, or, maybe a half dozen!

Viktor Frankl said, “Man/woman does not simply exist but always decides what his/her existence will be, what he/she will become the next moment. By the same token, every human being has the freedom to change at any instant.”

Finally, Viktor Frankl said there were three paths to finding meaning in life (1) through creative actions, doing something creative, (2) experimental encounters, experiencing beauty, truth, goodness, nature, culture or loving another person, and (3) attitudinal choices, how to respond to unavoidable suffering such as a loved one’s death.

At my father’s funeral, the preacher said, “…In his passing it may be difficult to find the grit to regroup and advance. But, in sons, daughter and friends, Wooldridge left the hard core of aggressiveness and the will to win. The human body lasts less than a century. A man’s achievements, good and bad, endure to infinity. This then is the end result of fatherhood and friendship, and memories that survive the ages. In the eyes of the people that knew him, he shall remain a man of limitless courage, iron determination and a monumental sense of humor and compassion.”

“The adventure of life offers every human being the ability to live ‘the’ moment of his or her most passionate idea, fantasy or pursuit. It may take form in the arts, acting, sports, travel or other creative endeavors. Once engaged, a person enjoys ‘satori’ or the perfect moment. That instant may last seconds or a lifetime. The key to adventure whether it involves painting, dancing, sports or travel: throw yourself into it with rambunctious enthusiasm and zealous energy—which leads toward uncommon passion for living. By following that path, you will attract an amazing life that will imbue your spirit and fulfill your destiny as defined by you alone. In the end, you will savor the sweet taste of life pursuing goals that make you happy, rewarded and complete. As a bonus, you may share your life experiences with other bold and uncommon human beings that laugh at life, compare themselves with no one and enjoy a whale of a ride!” Frosty Wooldridge

In summation, thank you dear reader for reading my columns, and your comments over the years. Thank you to each kind person who offered me lunch or a bed or directions on my bicycle journeys around the world. Thank you to my wife Sandi for dancing, romancing and sharing this grand journey.

What is the meaning of life? It’s all right there in the palm of your mind.

My preacher, Rev. Josh Reeves, inspired this column. Thank you!

“Can you think of any problem in any area of human endeavor on any scale, from microscopic to global, whose long-term solution is in any demonstrable way aided, assisted, or advanced by further increases of population, locally, nationally, or globally?” Dr. Albert Bartlett, University of Colorado

Let’s look at the realities throughout America’s civilization. A 747 jet plane limits its passenger number to exactly 416. Not one more person will be allowed onto that plane. A restaurant shows a limit of 110 people because that’s its maximum seating. A pool limits its swimmers to 80 to make sure its lifeguards can safely watch them. A high school, college and pro football team can only field 11 players on one side for the entire game. A basketball team features only five players per side. More than five players on each side would result in total chaos.

In other words, everything in modern civilization demands, carries and mandates limits on the number of people who can participate.

Today, in America, our leaders force us into a nightmarish future with unlimited population growth caused by horrific legal and illegal immigration.

As a young teacher in my twenties, I traveled all over the planet on my bicycle. I enjoyed extraordinary countries, cultures and languages on six continents. Call it my age of innocence! While I did participate in Earth Day 1970 on Michigan State University’s campus, I didn’t possess a clue as to what was going in the world.

That all changed in 1984 when I reached China. They had topped 1.0 billion people, now 1.4 billion. As I made my way from Hong Kong to Beijing and the Great Wall of China, I witnessed Chinese people packed, stacked and compressed into every corner of every piece of land in that overpopulated nightmare of a civilization. It was so bad, that, in 1979, they forced couples into 1.0 child per woman. Even with that draconian birth control, because of SO many women, their “population momentum” brought them to 1.41 billion by 2025.

China’s air, water, and soil suffered incredible pollution. Their rivers ran like sewage conveyor belts to the ocean. At the mouths of their major rivers, 20,000 square mile dead zones prevailed. Most vertebrate marine life could not survive the chemicals and sewage spewed into the oceans 24/7. That’s still true in 2025.

Today, China cannot feed its people. It must import food from all over the world. It’s commandeering land and food from Africa and South America. China owns over 350,000 acres of American farmland. Air pollution is a nightmare. People wear masks to filter out the soot to breathe in its cities. China features millions of cars on 50 lane highways, one way. If you think I’m kidding, just look it up on YouTube where you will see if it for yourself.

In other words, they’ve overpopulated themselves into an unsustainable civilization where “quality of life” spirals into the toilet. If they go to an ocean beach or a lake, people overrun and overwhelm everything.

The same thing escalates in India, Indochina, Japan, Brazil and more as the human race continues growing at 83,000,000 new babies, net gain, annually. In the past two years, humans topped 8.0 billion, but we aren’t stopping there! We will hit 9.0 billion within another 12-14 years. And then, 10.0 billion. In other words, we humans aren’t slowing down…at least third world humans aren’t stopping.

Do you notice our country filling up with Indians, South Americans, Central Americans and Chinese who are “chain-migrating” from their countries? Do you understand that the line of immigrants never ends.

Right now, the Biden administration invited somewhere around 15 to 20 million illegal aliens into America in the past four years. We also allowed another 4.0 million legal immigrants. That’s 24 million people. They are expected to birth at least another 24 million people if they only have two children per couple. That’s 12 million couples at 2.0 kids per couple—-that equals 24 million more kids.

In 2025, U.S. demographers show somewhere around 340 million Americans, with another 20 to 30 million more illegal alien migrants. We’re growing at around 4.0 million, net gain, annually.

In 1970, via birth control, American women have averaged 2.03 children per woman. We would have leveled off at 250 million people. Our cities wouldn’t suffer gridlock. Our standard of living would have remained high. Our quality of life would have remained the envy of the world. Instead, because of mass immigration, we exploded from 190 million in 1965 to over 340 million people in 2025, not counting the 20 to 30 million illegal aliens.

Today, our cities have become impossible to sustain. Our schools are turning out functionally illiterate students. Our Mississippi River features a 10,000 mile square “dead zone” in the Gulf of America. Our air pollution poisons all our cities and everyone breathing in them 24/7. Acid rain contaminates our soils. Those 84,000 chemicals and pharmaceuticals poison water, land and air.

In other words, we follow in the footsteps of China, India, Mexico, Japan and the rest.

Worse than that, you hear every kind of cry about stopping “Global Climate Change.” But you won’t hear a single stinking word about what causes it: human overpopulation. It’s like we’re brain dead or in denial or, we’re just too damned stupid change to save ourselves.

Fact: demographers project that America will jump from 340 million to 440 million by 2050, give or take a decade. But we’re also projected to accelerate to 675 million before the century is out. One look at the graph will show you our plight.

So, what do you want to do about what’s going to happen to your children? Do you have any solutions? What would you like to see happen? Do you feel we can force our president and Congress to take rational action to move us toward a sustainable future and a sustainable civilization?

What’s my solution? Simple: let’s take a 10 year pause on all legal and illegal immigration. Let’s examine how we want our civilization to survive.

Second solution: “Ingress equals Egress Solution”. If 50,000 people leave America annually, we can allow 50,000 into our country. They must be educated, speak English and bring a viable desire to work with a viable skill to benefit our society. Stop all welfare to immigrants.

One way or the other, we must create a stable and sustainable civilization. Because if we don’t, Mother Nature WILL take us down via global warming, water shortages that cannot be solved, conflict over resources, animal extinction rates, horrible quality of life, energy exhaustion, resource exhaustion, racial conflicts, and another dozen consequences ranging from our oceans being saturated with plastics to chemicals destroying our viability as a species.

“Pressures resulting from unrestrained population growth put demands on the Natural World that can overwhelm any efforts to achieve a sustainable future. If we are to halt the destruction of our environment, we must accept limits to growth.” World Scientists’ warning to humanity, signed by 1,600 senior scientists from 70 countries, including 102 Nobel Prize laureates.

Are we in trouble or what?!

Each week in America, something weird, crazy, stupid, nuts and off the wall, crazy—pops up in politics, sports, race relations, and the environment.

To start off, a letter arrived over my transom about America’s racial divide, political chasm and the incredible bias in main stream news reporting.  Just watching the enormous fraud continuing at U.S. AID curls your guts.  What’s more, all the people that protest against Musk for exposing it, are the people defrauding the American taxpayer. Or, those same people support all the fraud into the trillions of dollars over the decades.

To all of that, this reader from Michigan said, “Many or even most ‘journalists’ today, yourself not among them, are in reality propagandists supporting the agenda of the Left. Some of those on network television, similar to the late Rush Limbaugh’s self-assessment, are ‘entertainers’ who may present the news while representing a political viewpoint with a certain flare. What is lacking is a uniform effort to portray the Truth in an objective manner which allows viewers and listeners the ability to decide for themselves what is relevant based on the unfettered facts.

“Unfortunately, critical thinking has become passe’, and many are unable or unwilling to understand the possible long-term consequences of current events, and how these will affect the future of our nation and world. This makes ‘the news’ even more likely to succeed in its attempts to influence and control public opinion. It also begs the definition of ‘Truth’, a question which has been a conundrum for ages. As Bill Clinton offered as one example under other circumstances, “It all depends on what the meaning of ‘is’ “is”.

“All of this not new. The retiring editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer many years ago stated that objectivity had been lost long ago in journalism. You and I are, similar to the state of Social Security, living out a Ponzi Scheme in which any benefits accrued today by us will reduce their diminishing number available in the years ahead. The future and freedom of our children, grandchildren, and future generations are at stake.” G.G., MI

In the end, each American must examine the “truth” from bias reporting, from his or her own wisdom, and/or gathering all the facts from different sources.  That’s why I watch MSNBC, CNN, NPR, ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, Meet the Press, Face the Nation, 60 Minutes, and PBS.  I’ve got to decipher all of it in order to write a decent, truthful and reasonable piece of literary work—such as this commentary bi-weekly for the past 20 years.

This past weekend, a radio show on NPR aired a piece on “The Middle” that dealt with “Transgenderism.”  Callers responded with many different points of view.  Why such a topic has garnered such massive attention remains a mystery because the adherents to “Transgenderism” remain a tiny, tiny population in America of around .000000000001 percent.  Yet, because of social media, they garner extraordinary attention.  True, homosexuality has made giant strides in this country, too.  Their numbers might be as high as 2 to 4 percent of the American public.  Since we are a free country, and not Islamic, “gay” people enjoy all the rights and freedoms of every citizen.

So, how do you feel about children under the age of 21 choosing to have their mammaries removed by a scalpel?  Or, male boys choosing to be castrated at the age of 12 because they ‘feel’ they are a female?  How would you feel if your daughter chose to have hormone blockers to change her chemistry?  Do children under 21 possess the maturity to make such life-altering choices?

How do you feel about biological males “identifying” as females and competing against girls that cannot possibly match the speed or strength of those biological males?  Is it fair?  Who are those female governors of entire states advocating for biological males to beat the crap out of biological females in swimming, wrestling, boxing, volleyball, weightlifting and so many other sports?

How is it that 47 U.S. Senators voted to keep DNA male XY athletes competing against biological females?  Are they THAT ideologically locked into their own lack of common sense and knowledge of biology? How did they graduate from high school biology class?  What do they use for common sense?  Little wonder Congress earned a 17 percent approval rating for the past 10 years!  They’ve done more for non-citizens than for American citizens.  They’ve funded fraudulent U.S. AID without questions or auditing.

Back to transgenders: where are those that choose reason and critical thinking over emotions and hormone blockers?

How could the leaders of the NCAA choose to crush young women’s lives by allowing 6’4” William “Lia” Thomas to swim against them, and then stand on the podium with the 1st place trophy?  What a complete joke, fraud and insanity against reason!

Why not create the National Collegiate Athletic Transgender Association to have transgender athletes compete against their own kind?  Why not take the rational and reasonable choices to create a fair and balanced competition?  The Olympics feature the main course of competitors! And, they created the Para-Olympics to allow disabled sports stars to shine.  In fact, during my 25 years of teaching at Winter Park’s National Sport Center for the Disabled, I taught a few men and women how to ski to compete in the Para-Olympics. Incredible heart, talent and courage!  I often walked away from a day on the slopes crying my eyes out at their courage.

As to transgenders, the fact remains: a DNA biological male can “identify” as a female all “he/she” wants, but his XY chromosomes will NEVER be changed into XX chromosomes.  “His” or “her” mind may choose another gender, but his body will never switch genders no matter how many drugs he/she/it injects or consumes.

Even with high-profile transgenders like Cher’s daughter, Chastity Bono, who was born a female, all the hormones in the world to give her a beard, deep voice and “masculine” appearance—have not, and cannot change her DNA XX chromosomes into XY chromosomes.

In the end, we can accept their choices as long as their choices do not impede into other peoples’ lives like on the athletic field. If they want to cut off their breasts or castrate themselves, it would be more reasonable to legally wait until they are 21, with a more mature mind, to make such drastic, life-altering surgeries.

As an ending to this piece, let’s celebrate the Kentucky All State Choir for singing our National Anthem each night in the hotel lobby. There must be 20 stories of singers singing proudly and together, from all walks of life, all races and many religions.  We’ve got so much to be proud about in America.   Let’s raise our voices:

God bless America

Fact: Mixing one culture into another never works. Mixing multiple cultures into other cultures doesn’t work. Diversity doesn’t work. Mixing religions never works. Mixing tribes never works. Mixing “world views” fails on every level. Mixing languages in one country leads to linguistic chaos in that country.

In the first quarter of the 21st century—Europe, Canada and America participate in a racial-linguistic-cultural-tribal experiment that has proven horribly destructive, non-viable and threatens the existence of Western Culture.

As shown in Trump’s State of the Union address this week—angry, volatile, and nasty congressional critters attempted to create chaos in America’s most sacred chamber in Washington DC. One disrupter got tossed out on his ear. Others walked out with large signs on their backs, “Resist.” Still others raised signs calling the president a liar. Others said to, “Send Musk back to Africa.”

This week at Barnard College, Muslim Palestinian activists stormed the building chanting anti-Jewish slogans. They want to see every last Jewish person exterminated.

On the news, a congressional hearing forced four of the top “Sanctuary City” mayors to explain themselves for breaking federal laws. Johnston from Denver. Wu from Boston. Johnson from Chicago. Adams from New York City. All of them could and should be arrested for aiding, abetting and harboring tens of thousands of illegal aliens in their cities in direct violation of America’s laws. Yet, they remained defiant.

At the same time, those mayors have stolen billions of dollars from American taxpayers’ pocketbooks. They’ve placed illegal aliens over American citizens. They’ve gotten our citizens killed, raped and robbed.

While we know and understand that allowing biological men to compete in women’s sports is illegal, immoral, unethical and completely insane—-all 47 democrat U.S. Senators voted to keep men in women’s sports. It shows that when you’re THAT open minded, your brains fall out of your skull.

When the president spoke to the joint session about the death of Laken Riley and other women killed by illegal aliens, not one single democrat stood up to honor the mother and sibling of Laken Riley. At the same time, those same female congresswomen wore pink dresses in support of women—but voted against those women because those congresswomen voted for open borders to allow 15 million illegal alien criminals into America. You can’t help but scratch your head over that one.

Several members of the infamous “Squad”, a group of congressional women who support men in women’s sports, who support open borders, who openly call all white Americans ‘racists’, and who simply hate the U.S. Constitution—do everything they can to undermine law and order. *I’d bet none of them have read our U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights or the Declaration of Independence.

Today in major cities like Detroit, Minneapolis, New York City, Denver, Miami, Chicago, Atlanta and more—-you’ve got immigrant Muslim “citizens” practicing Sharia Law from the Quran—with NO affinity toward America’s culture, language or law and order. They’ve created their own enclaves or “no go” zones where America’s laws can be broken at will.

Experts tell us that America houses people who speak 430 different languages in our country. In 1965, virtually everyone spoke English because they wanted to become Americans. That all changed with the Teddy Kennedy’s 1965 Immigration Reform Bill that opened the gates to anyone and everyone with no mandate to speak English. We’re forced to placate them at the ballot box, mercantile stores and schools. Please remember that every single language brings a different “world view” and different “understanding” of reality. Not having a common language in America brings misunderstandings, political tensions, cultural disintegration and religious conflict.

In 2025, we’ve got somewhere around 20 to 30 million illegal aliens living and working underground—-siphoning off our tax dollars, stealing our mercantile goods, overwhelming our food banks, and creating havoc in our school systems, prisons and hospitals. They wire over $100 billion annually back to their home countries.

We’re seeing a complete devolution of America’s culture, America’s laws, America’s Constitution and our way of life.

How much longer can we maintain governance over our country with millions of people NOT born in our country, with no affinity toward our country, no affinity toward our language, and millions more arriving in the next 25 years?

Right now, demographers tell us that 55 million legal immigrants, not born here, inhabit America. Another 20 to 30 million illegal aliens inhabit our country. That’s up to 85 million foreigners out of 340 million Americans. Over 45 million Americans subsist on food stamps and welfare.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, we are projected to grow via mass immigration from 340 million to 440 million people within 25 years. That’s a 4 million annual growth rate, net gain, X’s 25 years. Voila! That’s 100,000,000 people. They are arriving from over 190 countries with every incompatible world view, religion, culture, and language you can imagine.

How do you think that’s going to work out?

How do we feed, house, educate and assimilate THAT many people? How do we grow enough food, provide enough water, and maintain any semblance of sustainability for our own citizens? How do we educate children with over 430 languages? What will happen to the “common thread” of being an American?

What happens when the incompatible languages and cultures start feuding with one another?

Have you read the history books of failed nations?

What about our depleting non-renewable resources at a horrendous rate to feed 440 million people? What happens when we can’t feed ourselves or them?

Resource author Christopher O. Clugston said, “Our deteriorating natural environment – especially increasingly pervasive global NNR scarcity – is causing our deteriorating cultural environment – increasing political instability, economic fragility, and societal volatility. We’re becoming increasingly frustrated, angry, and violent as a result…If I’m right, as Nature’s Squeeze intensifies, so will our unraveling – so I don’t see things improving, EVER! We can try all the political, economic, and societal expedients we want, but our predicament is geologically-based, and there is nothing we can do about it…Not what we want to hear, for sure, but Nature doesn’t care what we want to hear!”

Finally, when you see all the political, linguistic, world views, cultural and religious conflict in the world—how in the hell will we survive it by importing another 100 million legal and/or illegal immigrants into our guts? Why isn’t anyone speaking up about it? Am I the only journalist who sees it?

Are you as mystified or exasperated as to the irrationalities going on in America and around the world?  Does any of it make sense?  How do you wrap your arms around the wars, rocketing to Mars when millions are starving on Earth, and men injecting themselves into women’s sports?  How do you watch $200 billion being shipped off 9,000 miles away to Ukraine to fight a war that’s reported to have killed 1,000,000 young men on both sides— while America features millions in poverty and 774,000 homeless at last count?

Why do you figure American taxpayers send billions to Israel to protect them from Muslim aggression, but U.S. AID has been sending millions to support Islamic terrorism in the Middle East? That nasty little bit of news was reported on numerous networks by DOGE. In other words, we American taxpayers are getting screwed by the unelected bureaucrats working for U.S. AID—every which way but loose!

What about the fact that our ghettoes feature children who cannot read or write, and are functionally illiterate upon reaching the age of eighteen?  Thus, we house 45,000,000 illiterate Americans.  What’s reasonable about that?  Why hasn’t that nightmare been solved with viable solutions?

How is it that one president shut down the borders within 30 days of taking office while the former president invited 12 to 15 million illegal aliens to violate our borders—while he paid for their transport, hotels, phones, medical and food—on your billions of taxpayer dollars?  And he got away with it!  How is it that dozens of governors and mayors could provide unlawful “Sanctuary Cities” to support those 15 million border violators, and they get away with it?

Why would California Governor Gavin Newsom pass a $25 million taxpayer-funded bill to protect his 3 to 4 million illegal aliens in his state?  It’s clearly against every law on the books.

How is it that we allow Middle Eastern students visas to enjoy our incredible universities of higher learning, but allow them to riot and scream out, “Death to America”?   Why aren’t they arrested and deported immediately?

How is it that some knot-head elected official in Congress dreamed up WOKE, Transgenders in the military, D.E.I. injected into the most important positions, and C.R.T. implementation with no ideas as to the consequences?

When you watch the news at night, whether you are a democrat, republican, Independent or don’t care—we watch one insanity after another continue into the next insanity.

For instance, according to an NPR report, we have tossed 170 trillion pieces of plastic into our oceans in the past 60 years since chemists invented it.  We’ve done NOTHING to stop tossing it into our oceans.  Reports show we dump 8,000,000 pieces of plastics into our oceans daily in 2025.  There are NO coordinated recycling programs worldwide!  Every country in the world ignores those plastics while they destroy the ecology of the oceans.  Those plastics kill countless millions of marine life. Those plastics have broken down into tiny pieces that fish ingest, so that when we eat ocean-going fish, we are eating our own oil via plastics. Those plastics inhabit the ocean floor, float on the waves, contaminate our delicate reefs and beaches around the world.

You would think the leaders of the world would gather together…and create an international 50 cent deposit/return law for all plastics, glass and metal containers.  Because if they don’t, we’re looking at doubling from 170 trillion pieces of plastic to 240 trillion pieces of plastic.  What happens when there are more pieces of plastic in our oceans than fish, turtles, whales, sharks, et al.?   Do you see how completely irresponsible the human race is toward its own planet?

Along with that nightmare, since 1990, as reported by Life Magazine, “Predator Becomes Prey”, we have been killing 100,000,000 sharks annually.  And, with no letup in sight!  We’re wrecking the ecology of the oceans, but you never hear about it on the news or in documentaries on major networks.  It’s like if we bury the facts, maybe they will vanish so we don’t have to worry about them.  But of course, the FACTS will come back to bite us in our collective rear-ends.

At the same time, we’re spending billions of dollars to rocket to the moon and Mars. I saw the movie, Ad Astra, starring Brad Pitt, where he rockets to the moon, and then off to Mars to find his father. Who, by the way, had lost his mind somewhere out near Saturn on a space journey.  On the moon, all the concrete bunkers showed pictures of plants and animals on Earth.  When Pitt arrived at the concrete bunker on Mars, more pictures of Earth’s wild places.  So, what’s the point of spending billions/trillions to colonize Mars when we don’t give a damn about our planet here on Earth.  And, anyway, who wants to live on a rock-planet?  Answer: 99.9999 percent of the human race would choose living on our green Earth!

When I worked in Antarctica years ago, an artist named Schimmel painted a beautiful portrayal of the life on the ice. He had painted the devastation of locations around the world. He said, “With a species like humans, even the stars aren’t safe.”

Yes, I’ve written about this insanity many times, but again, what kind of deranged mind supports biological men beating the crap out of biological women in women’s sports?  That’s got to be the most incredible insanity of the 21st century.  How do you process it when you know it’s wrong, it’s nuts, it violates rational thinking, and it’s completely off the wall—CRAZY?   And yet, you see female governors like in Massachusetts supporting it! You see biological men who dominate the NCAA—-supporting it.  Who votes for such stupidity?  Let’s face it, for a biological male to stand on a podium with a trophy ment for a women’s competition—illustrates a special kind of mental illness.

Another insanity beats the heck out of me: supporting over 20 to 30 million illegal aliens who violated our borders with hundreds of billions of our tax dollars to support them—-when our ghettoes simmer and explode with killings, illiteracy, drugs and futility. How do you wrap your mind around that one?  What kind of a Congressional Critter voted to allow such insanity?  Fact: the rest of the world adds 83,000,000 (million) new babies, net gain, annually.  Most of them will become refugees who dream to move to America, Canada and Europe. How can we save them all?  We can’t!   Fact: we already import 1,000,000 legal refugees from around the world, annually.  It’s a drop in the bucket, and, it does nothing to alleviate the world’s overpopulation crisis—now at 8 billion—headed for 9 billion in the next 12 years.  Mark my words: this human invasion will ultimately drive America into an unsustainable future as we add another 100,000,000 people by 2050…that will end in collapse of our civilization.  It’s that simple and that harsh.

My former colleague at the University of Colorado, Dr. Albert Bartlett said, “Unlimited population growth cannot be sustained; you cannot sustain growth in the rates of consumption of resources. No species can overrun the carrying capacity of a finite land mass. This law cannot be repealed and is not negotiable.”

Read the book:  Blip: Humanity’s 300 Year Self-Terminating Experiment with Industrialism by Christopher O. Clugston. By 2050, we will have run out of all our non-renewable resources, specifically, OIL!

Here’s the final kicker that every news network avoids, but it’s coming:  “As we go from this happy hydrocarbon bubble we have reached now, to a renewable energy resource economy, which we must do in this century, will the “civil” part of civilization survive?  As we all know, there is no way that alternative energy sources can supply the amount of per capita energy we enjoy, now,  much less for the 9 billion people expected by 2050. And energy is what keeps this game going.  We are involved in a Faustian Bargain—-selling our economic souls for the luxurious life of the moment, but sooner or later, the price must be paid.”  Walter Younquist, Energy

HOW DO WE PROCESS WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR COUNTRY AND ALL WESTERN COUNTRIES?

This quote gives a clear picture of what we face:  “At this point,  it’s almost certainly too late to manage a transition to sustainability on a global or national scale, even if the political will to attempt it existed, which it clearly does not.  Our civilization is in the early stages of the same curve of decline and fall as with so many others that have gone before.  What likely lies in wait for us is a long, uneven decline into catastrophic starvation, violence and chaos, a new Dark Age, from which, centuries from now, the civilizations of the future will gradually emerge.”

Dear fellow American, we better start voting for representatives that understand what our civilization faces. We better come up with solutions.  And, having traveled around the planet,  I can tell you this:  the more we overpopulate America via immigration, the harder and faster we’re headed into the abyss.

Because this is a Constitutional Republic, it’s up to you to start writing, speaking, voting and taking action for your children. The year 2050 is less than 25 years away.

“Power tends to corrupt; and absolute power corrupts absolutely,” said British philosopher Lord Acton. (1834-1902)

You’ve seen that harsh reality play out in thousands of news articles where a bank teller embezzled money for years.  You read about it where a treasurer for an organization wrote checks out to a person, only to be exposed after years that the “person” was his or her bank account.  High school kids cheat on exams.  College kids cheat on tests by paying for someone to take those tests.  Teens buy false ID’s in order to buy booze.

Shoplifters in America steal over $100 billion annually. They walk out the doors of grocery stores, Home Depot, Walmart, Kohl’s, T.J. Max, Macy’s and thousands of other mercantile stores—with a load of loot stuck under their dresses, into their coat pockets, between their legs and in their baby strollers.  Others steal from ATM machines. Still others rob trains. Millions sell illegal drugs that kill people.  But that doesn’t stop any of them from working outside the law.

If you look back at the millions of dollars of the Kennedy Clan, Joe Kennedy, during the Prohibition, he ran whiskey and beer across borders and state lines to amass incredible wealth. In other words, for a certain percentage of people in America, crime pays.

If you read about the “Robber Barons” of the 1800’s, J.P. Morgan, J.D. Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie,  Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jay Gould and John Jacob Astor were all a bunch of high level crooks. They made slaves out of their employees by paying them very little, but worked them to death.  They cheated, lied and accumulated incredible sums of money.  They had university’s named after them.  Some of them, in their older years, actually did some good things like J.D. Rockefeller saved the Redwoods from being completely wiped out.  Carnegie created libraries across America. Sometimes, “guilt” makes a crook change course.

NOTHING MUCH HAS CHANGED IN AMERICA IN 2025

When it comes to the United States government, it really pays, big time to filch money out of the U.S. treasury.

U.S. Senator John Kennedy, (R-LA) said, “A big percentage of Congressional critters should be making license plates at the local prison.”

We’ve got U.S. Senators like Nancy Pelosi giving her husband information on military defense contracts. He turns around and buys millions of dollars in stocks so he can make more millions of dollars on all those munitions.  Pelosi is worth over $100 million from insider trading.

At the behest of President Trump, the smartest man on the planet and its wealthiest billionaire, Elon Musk charged into that “Den of Thieves” in DC with his D.O.G.E. mandate.  Within weeks, he found billions, if not trillions of dollars being wasted and stolen.  He discovered that U.S. AID provides a slush fund for politicians to extract million and billions of dollars of YOUR tax dollars for the most incredibly corrupt and stupid programs worldwide.

He discovered that only 4% of government workers in the Washington DC area came to work.  Entire office buildings were bare of workers.  Those people make over $100,000.00 a year to sit at a desk, but 96 percent of them haven’t come to work in four years.  They get paid to do nothing!  When Musk asked them in an email what they accomplished in the past week, the majority of them refused to answer the questions. In other words, they leech off the American taxpayer, lie like hell, and cry like a baby when their scam is discovered.

But the lies continue with the main stream legacy media.  They made sure than NO ONE knew about the incredible corruption of U.S. AID. It’s been going on for six decades.  A whole lot of people have tapped into the billions if not trillions given away by U.S. AID unelected bureaucrats.   Once the exposure exploded via Elon Musk, you’ve got all the scammers demonstrating, singing to deport Musk, and crying for their “jobs”.

THE WHOLE THING STINKS IN WASHINGTON DC

If you look back in history, kings and queens lived in their castles while the “serfs” labored in the fields to produce food for those royal “gods.”

If you look at our U.S. Congress today, you’ve got 21st century kings and queens living off our tax dollars from our labors. Notice Nancy Pelosi doesn’t wash her own dishes. Her housekeepers do it for her.  She doesn’t fix her breakfast.  She doesn’t vacuum the carpet. She doesn’t clean her toilet.  You, the taxpayer pay for her maids.

What confounds this journalist stems from the fact that we Americans keep voting these political leeches back into office for decades.  Let’s face it, House Member Maxine Waters has done NOTHING for her constituents in California for 30 years. She’s done nothing for the 170,000 homeless in her district.  But she lives in a $4 million castle.

That bartender in New York, AOC, now enjoys $1,000.00 coats, dresses and the latest styles. She’s the new royalty, yet has done NOTHING to make her district better other than invite thousands of homeless illegal migrants to use your tax dollars to keep them fed, house and protected from ICE.

There’s one thing about royalty 500 years ago, and the same thing in 2025: they wouldn’t give up their royalty back then.  And our new royalty won’t give it up now. Our new royalty won’t vote for “Term Limits.”   Once they are voted into the DC “club”, they want to stay in the club.

In the meantime, you and your hard work pay for their homes, wardrobes, status, bank accounts, lies, cheating, stupidities and all the vagaries of the new DC privileged class.  Career politicians are the 21st century “Royal Class.”

At some point, we “serfs” need to DEMAND term limits.  Because if we don’t, Lord Acton’s quote will remain a burden for every American taxpayer every working day of their lives.

Finally, let’s support Elon Musk and his brilliant DOGE team!

February 24, 2025

At some point, endless and massive immigration from the four corners of the planet—-into Western countries, will prove the disintegration of Western Culture, law and order, values, mores, religious/spiritual affinity, and commonality of community.  Love of one’s country finds itself being replaced by chants of, “Death to America” by recent immigrants from the Middle East into Detroit, Michigan.

This past week, February 15, 2025, in Munich, Germany, an Islamic immigrant ran his car into shoppers killing a mother and her daughter, and wounded 37 people.  Almost weekly, immigrants stab Germans, Brits, Danes, Swedes, Norwegians, French, Italians and Fins to death.  You don’t hear about it because they keep a tight lid on the harsh realities of immigration afflicting Europe.  In Paris several years ago, a bunch of Islamic immigrant terrorists shot up restaurants and killed dozens while attacking a huge theater crowd.  Imams have declared that Sweden is now an Islamic State.  Where they become a majority, no woman can walk down a city street alone.

The infamous hundreds of “no go” zones in France and most other Muslim dominated areas means that natives of those countries are not welcome in those areas because the Muslim inhabitants don’t tolerate women’s rights, equal rights, religious choice, Western laws or anything having to do with law and order.

Nearly half of London has become dominated by Middle Eastern immigrants, both legal and illegal.  This was on YouTube:  An Islamic scholar in the UK said, “Impose British values on Muslims? No, we don’t like your culture or democracy. Islam is better and we want Sharia law. We only believe in Allah!”  That holds true in America where Detroit Muslims during the recent marches against Israel chanted, “Death to America.”  They aren’t kidding!

In Minneapolis with 125,000 immigrant Muslim Somalians, the majority of them choose and practice Sharia Law.  They defy U.S.  Constitutional law.  Same anywhere in the USA where those Middle Eastern immigrants dominate.  “Somaliland” in Minneapolis is already a “no go” zone in America. Ditto for Detroit where 300,000 of them dominate Dearborn.

Canada continues on the same course of destroying its own culture to bow to Islamic culture.  What most Western Cultures don’t understand is the fact that the Quran teaches only one Prime Directive,  “Convert or kill all non-believers.”   They don’t immigrate into Western Cultures to assimilate.  They come to dominate, destroy and replace.  If you look at Vancouver, Canada, it’s completely dominated by Chinese immigrants, yes, a little more civilized, but they have imposed Chinese culture to run out the Canadians.  You almost have to wonder if Western Culture wants to commit suicide of its own way of life.

In the USA, Omar Ahmad, director of the Council of American Islamic Relations said, ”Islam is not in America to become equal to any other faith, but to become dominant.  The Quran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only religion earth.”

Fellow Americans, those Muslims can’t make it any clearer than that.  One look at the nightmare in Europe and Canada gives you a sobering idea of what’s facing America with continued Islamic immigration into our Western Culture.  They aren’t and won’t assimilate into Western values, community or mores.

For the past 20 years, you have been subjected to  “Celebrate Diversity and Multiculturalism” here in the United States.  Where has that motto gotten us?

• Muslim shot to death 13 people at King Sooper’s grocery store in Boulder, Colorado three years ago.
• Immigration gave us 9/11 from Muhammed Atta and crew.
• In New Orleans, Muslim ran over and killed 14 with 57 wounded this past December.
• We now suffer an average of 23 to 27 honor killings annually of women in our American Western Culture because of Muslim immigrants. (Source: Department of Homeland Security.). It’s 20,000 honor killings worldwide according to the United Nations reports.
• Female genital mutilation in America is now into the millions of little girls under the age of nine.
• “Death to America” chanted by Muslims in Detroit.
• Full-fledged American Muslim terrorists supported October 7, 2023 slaughter in Israel at our college campuses.
• This is only a short list of Muslim atrocities in America.

So dear fellow American: how far do we want to go down this nation-destroying rathole of endless immigration madness?

Who will be the next victim of an Islamic attack on America soil?  It could be your loved ones being shot up or stabbed at the grocery store. It could be your entire city going dark from an attack on our electrical system.  They could poison your water supply.  They are clever and they are relentless.

Please understand this harsh reality: Muslims don’t change. They are brainwashed by the Quran. Once it’s imbedded in their brains, nothing can change their terror concepts or quests. Those 72 virgins await every Muslim martyr!  The modern world won’t change them.  Facts, logic, education, freedom, choice, women’s rights, and a free country—none of Western Culture will ever change that 6th century violent religion into any kind of moderation or acceptance of mutual respect in a Western society.

“My position is that this idea of a multiethnic society is a disaster. That’s what we’ve got in Central Europe, and in Central Africa. A multiethnic society is insanity.  We should restrict immigration for that reason.”  Garett Hardin

—Interview with The Social Contract, 1997

At the very least, in America, we’ve struggled with our black/white situation for over 250 years.  It’s torn us apart with the Civil War. It’s caused riots and anger virtually every week in the news. We’ve created laws, affirmative action, D.E.I., C.R.T., SNAP, WIC, EBT cards, and much more to level the economic playing field. But for the most part, we keep struggling along with our racial conflicts. Thankfully, race-baiter Joy Reid has been tossed off MSNBC because of her outrageous hatred of white people.

But if we continue to import incompatible religions and cultures, there will come a time in the near future when all hell will break out in our cities where we have imported immigrants that simply cannot and do not get along.  When that time comes, we won’t be able to quell it or deal with it or solve it.

What are the possible solutions?  We need to pause all immigration for at least 20 years.  Or, if we continue it, we must follow the “ingress equals egress” plan with compatible and educated people who actually want to and can contribute to America’s wellbeing—rather than chanting, “Death to America.”

For the most part, Europe has immigrated itself to death.  They are already cooked beyond redemption.  Read the book: The Strange Death of Europe by Douglas Murray.  It will sober you as to our future if we continue mass immigration.

The final question is:  Do you wonder if America wants to commit suicide of its own way of life?  If we continue on our current path, we will suffer national suicide.

A sagacious person is wise and insightful, and has the ability to make good decisions. They are often described as having keen judgment and discernment.

“Satire” promotes the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people’s stupidities or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

When you combine a sagacious person with his or her ability to create satire, it’s a sobering combination of truths that everyone understands, but those truths are kept below the surface. Sometimes they erupt or smolder or simmer. But they are there!

Here’s one: Somalian immigrant U.S. Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, who forged her immigration papers, married her brother to get him papers to enter the USA, and broke numerous immigration laws—enjoys a seat in America’s Congress. But she wasn’t elected by any Americans. She was elected by 125,000 Somalian immigrants that Barack “Barry Soetoro” Obama dropped onto Minneapolis, Minnesota. We know where Omar came from, but we still don’t know where Obama came from because his Social Security number begins with 042, which originated in Connecticut, a place he never visited or lived. And yet, the mainstream media covers it up!

Here’s another: How did 125,000 illiterate Somalian immigrants in Minneapolis, Minnesota outsmart American Electronic Benefit Transfer cards officials by stealing $200,000,000.00 (million) in cash from those cards? Inquiring minds want to know. A whole lot of us taxpayers would like to know how they did it, too. Not one single Somalian fraudster was convicted because Minnesota’s Governor Walz didn’t want to appear “racist”, so he didn’t prosecute anyone.

Here’s one: “Social Security wasn’t drying up, government officials were/are stealing it.” If not for Elon Musk, we might never know how corrupt those government officials handling our money have become.

This one’s brutal: Here’s a satire on the three lesbian women promoted to fire chiefs in California through D.E.I., but didn’t have the brains or foresight to prevent those wildfires from destroying billions in property. But each was paid an annual salary of over $400,000.00. Incompetence can be costly, to you, the taxpayer. Please God, deliver us from D.E.I.

Here’s one piece of satire from North Carolina: Islamic Sharia Law has been banned in the Tar Heel State as it is criminal and in violation of our Constitutional Laws. As it should be! We do not support honor killings of women and/or female genital mutilation of little girls. Muslims can take their culture back to the desert sands of the Middle East. Note that the United Nations reported that 20,000 Islamic women lose their lives to honor killings annually. Most little girls suffer FGM in Islamic countries. It’s now in America with our Muslim population. You can take the person out of the culture, but you can’t the culture out of the person. An average of 25 women suffer honor killings in the USA annually according to the Department of Homeland Security.

Here’s one: Wuhan China’s bioweapons scientist blows the whistle: Covid was engineered to depopulate humans off this planet.

This one mystifies: Why are all the liars, cheats and thieves in Washington DC fighting in favor of U.S. AID’s gross corruption of sending billions of dollars to foreign countries for absurd pet projects such as $20 million to promote Sesame Street cartoons to give women equal footing in a Muslim country, when in fact, Islamic men devalue women to 1/2 that of a man? Who in U.S. AID thought they could change that 6th century barbaric religion that cut’s women’s heads off if they speak up? There must be a cartoon for that one!

Love this cartoon: Four democrat donkeys are standing in front of a picture in the middle of the woods. In the center of that picture in the wilderness of thick green trees is a blank spot…it reads, “You are here.” One of the donkeys said, “Anyone got a compass?” It shows how lost the democrats have become in America after they got trounced in the last election. Maybe Kamala Harris could wade into the wilderness with a compass to guide them out. But, of course, she can’t read a compass. But she can toss a “word salad” in front of the cameras.

This was on YouTube: An Islamic scholar in the UK has clear ideas: “Impose British values on Muslims? No, we don’t like your culture or democracy. Islam is better and we want Sharia law. We only believe in Allah!” The same holds true for Muslims in America. They hate Constitutional Law because it gives equal rights to women, children and animals.

This satire can’t be beat: “Instead of watching the Super Bowl, I’d rather watch four hours of Tom Homan deporting illegal aliens.” With more than 20 to 25 million of illegal aliens now housed in America, that’s going to be quite a show. The numbers make you numb because you’re paying the price for the 12 million that were reported by the Legacy Media for the past 20 years, and the 12 to 15 million invited into our country by Joe Biden or was it his wife Jill? We’ll never know. Go Tom Homan!

You can’t stop laughing on this one: Comedian Will Ferrell, sitting behind a TV desk, is reporting the news, “This just in…Closing our border is reported to be causing mass shortages of lethal drugs, rapists, killers and new Democrat voters.” It’s not so funny if you’re the parents and friends of Laken Riley.

This one from Baron Trump: “The richest man (Musk) in the world is working for free to stop your government bureaucracy from robbing you blind. Instead of complaining, why not sit down and say, ‘Thank you.’”

This one digs deep: Only in America can one ethnic group have Black Awareness Month, All Black Only TV, Black Holidays, Black Only Colleges, Miss Black America, Black only dating sites, Black only bars and clubs—-but turn around and call the rest of the country “racists.” That would be Whoopi Goldberg! Ironically, Black Americans enjoy the highest standard of living in the world, best educational opportunities, most millionaires and billionaires, dominate colleges and professional sports, get paid enormous salaries on TV, movies and sports—while their brothers and sisters in Africa are starving to death, dying of AIDS, being raped, and don’t have running water or toilets, and suffer hopelessness from their conditions.

Love this one by a fellow journalist Tom DeWeese, “To believe that all is doomed is to say that the ideas of Adams, Washington, Jefferson, Franklin and Madison aren’t strong enough to stand up to the delusional ravings of Marx, Lenin, Hitler, Mao, and the tyrants at the United Nations.”

Let’s get down to Brass Tacks:

It matters little if you are Black, White, Brown, Yellow, bi-racial, gay or straight, smart or stupid, educated or uneducated, male or female, liberal or conservative, independent or you don’t care—-you are one lucky human being to be living in the United States of America.

Whether you’re a liberal, conservative, independent, or, you just don’t participate—you cannot help but appreciate that the last four years under the previous dementia-led administration brought America a whole bunch of craziness, absurdities and lunacy.

I mean, come on! The president of the United States and Congress allowed, invited, and engineered the entry of over 12 million unvetted, illegal and totally unqualified refugees to storm our borders. Those refugees have saturated our cities, overwhelmed our food banks, housing, schools, prisons and medical systems. Those refugees displaced our own 774,000 homeless citizens along with tens of thousands of homeless veterans. Those refugees have cost you over $150 billion annually to care for them. Thousands of them have robbed you blind, and dozens of them have raped and killed our citizens. That beautiful young nurse Laken Riley will never get to live the American Dream. Her death is on Joe Biden, Governor Kathy Hochul and Mayor Nick Adams.

Just last week, Mary Comans, head of FEMA, a multi-million dollar agency in our government, sent $59,000,000.00 (million) of our tax dollars to keep paying for tens of thousands of illegal aliens in New York City. Is that nuts or what? Thankfully, Trump’s team intercepted our money, fired that lady, and kept that money for Americans. Hopefully, those hotels in NYC start tossing out those illegal aliens who have been living large on our tax dollars.

The bigger question remains as to WHY people at that level of our government were hired when they’ve got sh*t for brains. But if you look at the head of U.S. AID, you’ve got thousands of them sucking our taxpayer dollars down an endless drain. The entire workforce for U.S. AID should be fired for their ruthless corruption! Why is that? They all know the fraud going on and they are complicit.

Isn’t it amazing to see all those bureaucrats crying, singing and demonstrating to keep U.S. AID going so they can stay home, draw a paycheck, and do nothing to earn it.

At the same time, you’ve got lame-brains like House Member Alexandria Ocasio Cortez continually pushing for biological men competing in women’s sports and wandering around leering at women in women’s bathrooms.

Thankfully, super star swimmer Riley Gaines and other brave women stood up to “that” insanity and brought the NCAA back to “reason.” Trump used his executive order powers to stop men from competing in women’s sports and stopped them from showering with women in women’s changing rooms. That’s “REASON” returning our country. That male swimmer, William “Lia” Thomas will go down in NCAA history as the biggest farce, joke and emotionally ill “pretend” woman in U.S. history.

Has anyone ever realized that the Somalian immigrant, House Member Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who married her brother to obtain papers for him to immigrate to America, has broken too many laws to list, but is a member of the House of Representatives—-but she wasn’t elected by Americans. Over 125,000 immigrant foreigners, who practice Sharia Law, voted for her. None of them were born here and 90 percent of them remain on welfare after 10 years. Whose bright idea was it to jam 125,000 illiterate Somalians into Minneapolis to bring more color to that formerly “white” enclave? The Somalian babysitting costs are off the charts!

Then, you have to ask how they got away with stealing $200 million worth of EBT card money before getting caught? They might not be too intelligent, but they outsmarted the heads of the food stamp offices.

When you look at Detroit’s House Member Rashida Tlaib, she’s a Muslim with a vengeance. When elected by 300,000 Detroit Muslims, she wrapped herself in the Palestinian flag outside her office. She hates Jews! Obviously, she doesn’t stand for the U.S. Constitution or America. She would mandate Sharia Law into effect if she had the power. With higher numbers like in the UK, they will overpower Constitutional laws.

Yaglob, the Islamic scholar in UK made it clear about Muslims: “Impose British values on Muslims? No, we don’t like your culture and democracy. Islam is better and we want Sharia law. We only believe in Allah!”

Is anyone sick of the entire transgender insanity? How could anyone operate and mutilate little children, and think it’s okay for someone under 18 to know if they want their breasts cut off or to be castrated? There’s a special kind of insanity and stupidity for anyone who thinks those operations are moral or ethical. Let those kids, by law, wait until they are 21 before they make such stupid and ill-advised body mutilations that will last for a lifetime.

What about our money from U.S. AID going to the United Nations, but those corrupt rats gifted it to the Taliban? What a heck of a cover-up by our own government and the people in it.

As reported by journalist Daniel Greenfield:

1. In 2021, Afghanistan’s central bank, controlled by the “financier of the IEDs” that had killed over 1,000 U.S. soldiers, began tweeting pictures of shipments of blue bags of hundred dollar bills as “humanitarian aid”.

Australia’s ABC even featured a photo of the blue bags on the tarmac at Kabul International Airport containing $40 million. One of several such shipments.

Where was the money coming from? The American taxpayer!

2. Here’s how I break it down in “USAID’s Taliban Money Laundering Scheme.”

USAID put the money into pooled UN accounts which it did not control allowing it to deny sending money to the Taliban.

3. The UN bought and shipped billions in hundred dollar bills to Afghanistan. Then deposited them in a private bank and transferred money to ‘non-profits’ on the ground. This let the UN deny it was giving money to the Taliban.

4. The non-profits then exchanged the money with ‘Afghanis’ from a Taliban-controlled bank. (Source: Daniel Greenfield, jihadwatch.org)

Hopefully, Trump extracts America out of the United Nations. It’s a useless, worthless and corrupt bunch of bureaucrats sitting around pandering, but doing nothing for world peace. In fact, it’s been proven that many members financially facilitated Hamas for the October 7, 2023 slaughter of men, women and children in Israel.

Hopefully, we’re moving away from “Affirmative Action” and “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion” to “Education, Determination, Excellence, Qualifications.”

What about Ukraine? Why aren’t all of Europe’s countries financially supporting the people of Ukraine? Why our tax dollars? Europe has the most to lose if Putin absorbs Ukraine. He could go after country after country. Why are we being financially sucked dry?

Why do we see all the liberals supporting the insanity of U.S. AID? Why do they support men beating the heck out of women in sports? Why do they want to see little kids butchered in transgender operations? Where is the common sense? How do people like AOC or Ilhan Omar or Joy Reid or Whoopi Goldberg even possess an audience of more than one—themselves? How do governors and mayors create Sanctuary Cities for criminals?

We’ve got to move back toward what made America SO successful: Law and Order. Personal merit. Personal accountability. Common sense. Personal responsibility. Educational excellence. Pride in America.

Part 4: Your personal journey with help from many who have tread the same path back toward health.

The fact remains, most fast-food establishments across America continue adding chemicals, fillers and toxins to their food offerings. No question that their foods taste great, but you become a guinea pig for long-term health consequences.

You might tap into some of the leading health/nutritional coaches out there in America.  Jillian Michaels offers nutritional and exercise programs that provide you with a path toward maximum health.

Vani Hari, better known by her “Food Babe” online persona, knows firsthand how altering one’s eating habits can change a person’s life for the better.

As a young woman, Hari suffered a litany of health conditions. While recovering from the surgery, she studied and examined her eating habits.

After cutting out bad foods from her diet, starting with artificial food dyes and processed foods, Hari’s health turned around.

“I went off all my prescription drugs,” she said. “My asthma disappeared, my eczema vanished, and I started to look like a different person. All the inflammation from my face and under my eyes disappeared. And the people around me who grew up with me couldn’t believe the transformation.”

She began tracking down junk food joints by exposing them:

Chick-fil-A Victory– After writing the piece “Chick-fil-a or Chemical-fil A” in 2011, Chick-fil-a invited Hari to their headquarters to discuss her concerns. After speaking with representatives at their headquarters, Chick-fil-a took her concerns and those shared by the Food Babe Army through facebook posts, calls to the headquarters, and boycotts of Chick-fil-a products; they decided to improve the quality of their food. In 2013, Chick-fil-A responded to the heat to change by announcing they were removing artificial dyes, artificial corn syrup, and TBHQ from their products.  Chick-fil-a also announced a plan to use antibiotic free chickens within the next 5 years – her #1 request to them!

Subway – In October 2015, Subway committed to eliminating the use of antibiotics in all of their meat in the U.S. – This announcement came following her major petition in conjunction with other petitions launched by other consumer advocacy groups (U.S. PIRG, NRDC, Center for Food Safety, Friends of the Earth and others). All of these petitions received a total of over 250,000 signatures!

She exposed another 10 top junk food companies. What do Hari’s actions mean?  They mean YOU too, can change fast food to healthy foods by your knowledge and where you spend your money.

In this interview, Hari shared the following advice for how others can begin the health and wellness journey she herself underwent years ago.

1. Read the ingredient labels

“You’ve got to understand what you’re eating,” Hari said. “And if there’s an ingredient on there you don’t understand, look it up. You need to understand what you’re putting in your body.”

She added, “Once you understand that the majority of chemicals that are being put into processed foods are there to just improve the bottom line in the food industry and not improve your health. You will make better choices.”

2. Take ‘ownership’ of your food 

“Cook at home,” Hari advised, “Take back that ownership of your food. Really understand the items you’re putting into your body.”

3. Seek cleaner alternatives 

“It can be hard to ditch favorite foods — but alternatives exist,” she said. “For breakfast cereal, purchase a “natural version” of an existing cereal, one that does not contain refined sugar, dyes, preservatives, or artificial ingredients.”

“Buy brands that don’t have the MSG and artificial food dyes,” said Hari. “And to satisfy your cravings, make French-fries at home with safe oils.”

4. Keep things simple 

“Just choose real food with one ingredient,” Hari said. “There are so many swaps available today to go from the very highly processed ingredients to better-for-you brands. I think the food industry has been put on notice that they are no longer going to be allowed to use ingredients they don’t use in other countries. Americans are fed up.”

Americans, she said, “Want the same safer ingredients that these food companies have already figured out how to make.”

5. Shop around 

“Go to the local farmer’s market,” Hari said. “Go organic.”

Finally, you might choose the “easy way” out of being fat like Ozempic, or Sono Bello, or all the weight watcher organizations that guarantee you a fabulous body.  If you examine most of them, they do not speak about exercise. And again, most of the foods they ship to you are processed in a box, package or plastic envelope.

One young lady got all her fat sucked out of her body, but continued to eat the same way she did to get herself into her obese state.  Within 18 months, she gained back another 50 pounds because her body could not deal with all the calories and unhealthy foods she fed it. She discovered the hard way that healthy eating and exercise were her only choices.

Hopefully, this series offered you positive nutritional understandings and knowledge.  Take charge of your body, your health, and your life.  Make it a healthy, happy and wonderful journey.

Since 1961, when President John F. Kennedy created this organization, the U.S. Agency for International Development now stands for mega-fraud, unfathomable corruption, and horrific waste of American taxpayer dollars into the billions, even trillions over the past seven decades.  Their $40 billion annual budget doesn’t see the light of an audit or any accountability at any level.

U.S. AID grew into a giant slush fund for endless individuals and organizations that lie, cheat and steal from the American taxpayer.

Let’s look at several of the most obscene corruption enterprises ever concocted by our elected representatives and given to unelected liars, cheats and thieves.

Let’s DEI the whole world

Many of the expenditures have gone to make the rest of the world more DEI and LBGTQ-friendly.

• $1.5 million to “advance diversity equity and inclusion in Serbia’s workplaces and business communities”
• $70,000 for production of a “DEI musical” in Ireland
• $47,000 for a “transgender opera” in Colombia
• $32,000 for a “transgender comic book” in Peru
• $2 million for sex changes and “LGBT activism” in Guatemala

Promoting the climate change agenda

• $4 million of funding for the Center for Climate-Positive Development
• $2.5 million for electric vehicles for Vietnam

Weird money to send to other countries

• $6 million to fund tourism in Egypt
• $12 million in support services to the Bureau for Resilience, Environment, and Food Security
• $3 million in non-emergency funding to provide evaluation services for planning and learning programs
• USAID gave $68 million to the World Economic Forum…

Global health agendas

• Millions to EcoHealth Alliance — which was involved in research at the Wuhan lab
• $37 million to the World Health Organization
• $600,000 to fund technical assistance for family planning in Latin America

Directly funding terrorist groups that are enemies of the US

• Hundreds of thousands of dollars for a non-profit linked to designated terrorist organizations — even AFTER an inspector general launched an investigation
• “Millions of dollars to fund “irrigation canals, farming equipment, and even fertilizer used to support the unprecedented poppy cultivation and heroin production in Afghanistan,” benefiting the Taliban

George Soros…yes, George Soros

• $270 million to the East-West Management Institute, an organization partnered with George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, in the last 15 years, according to data from USASpending.gov

Influencing national and worldwide media

USAID has been using these funds to provide training and support to “strengthen independent media,” including large media organizations and smaller or individual media sources operating under “repressive conditions.”

• Reporters Without Borders (RSF) revealed that USAID funded 6,200 journalists, 707 non-state media outlets, and 279 media-focused NGOs in more than 30 countries in 2023.
• $8.2 million to Politico for “pro memberships”
• Multimillion dollar investments in Hungarian news to promote a “free press.”

Those are your tax dollars pandering and being pocketed by individuals all over the world with absolutely NO benefit to any American citizen.  The agency itself hired 10,000 workers who do nothing more than facilitate the theft of your tax dollars.

There is one case where U.S. AID spent money to promote “Sesame Street” in Muslim-dominated Afghanistan or Iraq where women possess no rights whatsoever.  It’s beyond absurd that our Western society could ever change an Islamic society.

U.S. AID pays Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO’s) to process illegal aliens into America so those same illegals can siphon off your tax dollars for their food, schooling, medical care, housing and transportation costs.

U.S. AID pays Lutheran Churches, Catholic Charities and other religious organizations to process and resettle legal immigrants who lack any ability to contribute to our society.  If you take one look at Detroit or Minneapolis where we imported 300,000 Muslims from Syria and another 125,000 Somalia Muslims—over 90 percent of them remain on welfare after 10 years.  They are not intellectually capable of being educated to the levels of Western civilization, let alone culturally assimilated.  Notice that we import 1,000,000 (million) legal immigrants annually—-more than all other countries in the world combined.

When it comes to corruption, notice that Charles Schumer (D-NY), 35 years in the U.S. Senate, yells the loudest against Musk, when in fact, Schumer is one of the most corrupt politicians in our country. He and Nancy Pelosi are twin rip-off artists of your tax dollars. (As to insider trading on defense contracts.)

Then you look at our Defense Department that has failed 8 audits in the past 8 years because they know we can’t do a thing about their $850,000,000,000.00 (billion) budget.  It shows you that defense contractors rip-off the American taxpayer at every opportunity.

Can Elon Musk bring sanity to the Federal Government?

It’s going to be a whale of a battle between the entrenched, corrupt Deep State bureaucracy, and Elon Musk and Donald J. Trump.  If Musk wins, you win. If he loses, we all lose.

If Musk loses, our national debt will explode beyond $40 trillion until it ultimately collapses our financial system. That’s what happens when you keep flushing money down a rathole!

Part 3: We’re going to cover “how and what” to eat. How to detox your body from heavy metals and chemicals. How to make sure you avoid all the “crap” food, sugars, dyes, poisons, deadly synthetic sugars, best stores for your health, and how you can force your schools into healthy breakfast and lunch programs. Your dollars will drive this new “Make America Healthy Again” crusade.

The fact remains that America offers the largest selection of foods in the entire world. No other country offers over 60,000 food items in large grocery stores. In the produce section, dozens of healthy greens, reds, yellows, and orange-colored vegetables await your purchase. You’ve got every kind of apple, banana, grape, Kiwi, lime, lemon, peach, coconut, blackberry, strawberry and blueberry at your command. You find those fruits in the frozen section as well as in jars and cans. Notice there is no special packaging that demands your attention in the vegetable section. That’s because fruits and vegetables constitute your healthiest foods. Over the course of human development, we all ate very simply, very basically and close to the earth.

In the grocery store, the butcher shop displays every cut of meat in the world. It all looks good, but unless they are organically-fed critters, the average cow and chicken on display have been fed or injected with nine different chemicals from growth hormones, GMO’s to antibiotics. When you eat their flesh, you eat all those chemicals.

Along the shelves, you may purchase cereals, breads and pastries. Some stores offer an entire aisle of ice creams. Other aisles offer juices the color of the rainbow.

Rows of canned, packaged and boxed foods await you. Instant dinners offer their easy fix at meal time.

Ah, but there is a catch! Just about everything you might purchase in a box, can, package or glass/plastic container—offers up an endless line of ingredients from dyes, preservatives, sugars, salts and more. If you read the ingredients, you realize you’re eating a chemical bath injected into that “food.”

Let’s make this fact perfectly clear: white refined sugar, high fructose corn syrup, Sucralose and other synthetic sugars are VERY DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH. There must be 50 different names for “sugar”, but they are all nasty for your health. Top prune juice companies put high fructose corn syrup in their products. Some baby food manufactures inject sugar into their jars—that addict your babies. It’s a ‘cartel of ill health’ that gets all of us by our throats.

At the checkout line, you come face-to-face with every kind of sugary candy known to humanity. Those grocery stores feed your sugar addiction, also known, as “point of purchase.”

No wonder 66 percent of Americans are overweight, fat and/or obese! No wonder our 12 year old kids feature 40-year old pot bellies and diabetes. No wonder America leads the world in heart attacks, cancers, diabetes, and obesity along with dozens of other consequences to poor eating. No wonder Alzheimer’s Disease explodes among our baby boomers! They’ve spent a lifetime eating a lot of bad foods.

As the Surgeon General said last month, “Because of alcohol consumption, 100,000 Americans are diagnosed with seven forms of cancer annually, and 20,000 die.” Was anybody listening? Probably not!

Are you ready for a slim, trim, healthy body? Do you want a vibrant body, mind and spirit? For many people, it feels SO out of reach because of emotional problems that make “comfort foods” very addictive. Many times, when you see overweight parents, the children also suffer from obesity because their parents feed them the same foods that made the parents fat.

Please notice that when you stroll down the “cereal aisle”, you’re face-to-face with an advertising campaign with a tiger that tells your kids that his sugar-coated flakes are, “Wonderful!” Well, there are another 15 cereal brands covered in sugar, dyes, colors, chemicals and worse. Buy the organic cereals with “no sugar added.”

Avoid all soda pop! It’s really bad for your longterm health. Drink water!

How about fast food joints? Do you think they care about your health? Not a chance. They advertise to your emotions and feed you a nightmare of fats, oils, chemical foods and worse. That’s why they are called “Junk Food Joints.” Choose healthy eating establishments. Let your dollar dictate what kind of fast food joints succeed and let the bad ones fail.

Are you already to be slim and trim? You can still clean up your food intake with organic choices, chelate heavy metals out of your body, and delete toxins.

Speaking of heavy metals, if you’re a baby boomer, and you live in a big city, you’re subject to breathing heavily polluted air that carries dozens of heavy metals. Lead, mercury, cadmium, palladium, and other metals get into your blood stream to be deposited to every part of your body, including your brain. That’s how older people suffer dementia.

How can you detox your body of heavy metals? Well, my wife Sandi suffered severe heavy metals in her body. We discovered a combination of cilantro leaves, Humic/Fulvic Minerals (liquid) and Chlorella (green algae) pills—-that chelate those metals out of the body. After one year, she dropped from the highest levels on the urine test to baseline. We keep her on that schedule to keep her entire body detoxed.

Yes, there are lots of detox formulas on health food store shelves. You can detox your liver, blood and colon. See a specialist in those natural food stores.

What about high blood pressure? Men and women suffer from it along with their overweight bodies. First off, you must move your weight back to your “lean and clean” high school days. Lose weight the natural way with Weight Watchers, GoLo, Sienna, Nutri-System and many more. In order to bring down high blood pressure without pills, buy an incredible book by Dr. Steven Sinatra: The Sinatra Solution. It saved my brother’s life, and I have used the “solution” for 14 years to maintain a healthy heart and blood pressure. It even offers a “solution” for “couch potatoes” along with top athletes.

What about your liver? It’s the filtering system for your entire body. Give it a liver cleanse twice a year.

The biggest thing you can do for your health is to buy food products that are organically grown, non-GMO, not sprayed with chemicals or grown with petroleum fertilizers. Check every food package for ingredients. If you can’t pronounce them, avoid buying them.

If you’re a parent with kids in school, please realize that the “dominant” food paradigm is already dug-in to serve your kids poor foods, sugary foods, soda, pizza and the like. You must go to school board meetings and demand a healthy, nutritional breakfast and lunch program.

Since this topic is massive, I give a one-hour program: How to Regain, Sustain and Maintain a Healthy Life past 40,50,60,70,80. At the end of the program, attendees come up to the podium to thank me for educating them toward a healthier life. If you would like an email four-page handout, it will fill you in with incredible knowledge, breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas. It features books to educate you to your highest and best. Email me at: frostyw@juno.com. While I can’t guarantee you anything as to health or wellness, this program will give you a pathway toward well-being.

Good health and high spirits,

Part 2: Your healthy choices early, rather than desperate choices later, when it’s too late

Indeed, Part 1 proved quite a “waker-upper” for a lot of readers. You flooded my inbox. That column wasn’t supposed to make you feel good if eat you poorly, fail to exercise and lack enthusiasm for life. Let’s make one point very clear: you decide to give yourself a “great” life of health and wellness as early as your teens. Once you form healthy habits, you enjoy a lifetime of wellness, enthusiastic, and energetic living.

What I’ve discovered during my time on this planet: most Americans don’t worry or care about their health until they lose it. The majority of Americans fail to exercise regularly. What does that mean? It means you need to spend 60 minutes of aerobic exercise five to six days a week. That means swimming a half mile daily, bicycling for 20 miles, playing tennis for an hour, walking for an hour, and/or Zumba dance classes for an hour. You may enjoy dozens of hard, medium and easy exercise programs. Find an activity that you enjoy. The key: you want to use all your muscles to accelerate blood flow to all your organs, especially your brain.

As for my exercise program, I swim a half mile for 30 minutes, six days a week. After 15 minutes in the hot tub where I pray, meditate and stretch my muscles, I hit the shower. From there, I lift weights for 45 minutes, and then, the rowing machine. Also, I “run” a mile on the elliptical machine to save my knees from the pounding of running. About 1.5 hours later, I walk out of the gym refreshed, invigorated and ready to live life.

Of course, you will hear people say, “I don’t have that much time to exercise.” To that I say, “The average American male watches 4.5 hours of TV daily, and the average American female watches 3.5 hours of television daily. What do they receive in return? Most of them could not tell you one piece of information at the end of the week that they received from such programs as “Wheel of Fortune; Love After Lockup; NCIS” ; and dozens of other insidiously moronic programs that do nothing for their lives other than waste time.

What are the consequences of not exercising? This example pains me: there’s really fat guy about 55 in my gym who could be described as obese. He comes to the gym daily. He pushes a few weights, walks for 15 minutes on the treadmill, but mostly talks to other gym rats. After his shower, he sits on the bench. He must place his underwear on the floor, then put his feet into the holes, then pulls up his underwear, and then struggles to stand up until he gets his shorts up to his waist. Same for his trousers. It’s painful to watch. Ironically, he refuses to get help to lose 60 odd pounds of fat packed onto his body.

Worse than that, he’s speeding toward a heart attack, diabetes or a stroke. What is amazing to me stems from the fact that millions of American men know their obesity will kill them or cripple them, yet they keep eating the same way that got them so fat.

Now, if you’ve been exercising all your life, it’s no big deal to hit the gym daily to breeze through your workout. It’s almost comical about the men and women who make a New Year’s resolution to exercise, but drop out after the first month.

It takes courage, dedication and fortitude to workout five and six days a week to maintain your physical health.

Therefore, how to you make a habit when you never learned to make that habit before?

You can join a yoga class, Zumba dance class, Pilates class, senior exercise class, beginning racquetball class, stationary cycling class, and/or swim classes. At some point, you will find an exercise regimen that fits your mind, emotions and spirit. It’ll be fun.

You may hire a Personal Trainer. I am an ACE certified personal trainer. I work toward what delights my clients. I do the exercises with them. If they want to swim, I swim with them at their speed. If they want to cycle, I cycle with them. If it’s lifting weights, I lift with them. I jump on the rowing machine to make it a mutual workout. Rowing is incredible. You work around 170 muscles while pushing your lungs and heart to their optimal functioning.

So, you too, can secure a workout partner. You’ll find you’re both busting your butts much better when you work together. You’ll find that you breeze through your workout. Your body, mind and spirit will love what you’re doing for your life.

Join a “Meetup” in your area of hikers, cyclists, skiers, swimmers, tennis players, mall walkers, and much more. You’ll find yourself in the middle of people turned on toward life.

If you’re in a rural area, you’re probably working outdoors in your garden with your hands in the dirt. It’s called “Earthing or Grounding” that balances your electrical vibrations with the Earth’s electrical vibrations. It’s healthy to stay in touch with this planet’s rhythms. There’s a book out there by Clint Ober, Earthing: The Most Important Health Discovery Ever! You can buy Earthing foot pads or sheets to “Earth” all night long.

If you notice, all animals touch the Earth 24/7 because they don’t wear shoes. They maintain a healthy contact with the planet’s energy. We humans are animals, too, but we wear shoes that isolate us from the Earth’s electrical field. You’ll find tremendous health benefits when you get into Earthing daily.

Okay, a lot of your emails asked me about that point I made as to average Americans only eating 15 to 20 grams of fiber daily. That’s why we face millions of cases of hemorrhoids, diverticulitis, leaky gut, and colorectal cancers. How many grams should you eat? Women should consume 30 to 35 grams daily. Men should eat 35 to 40 grams. How do you know when you consume 35 grams daily? You will enjoy comfortable and easy bowel movements of 10 to 15 seconds—-and you’re up and ready for the day.

How do you obtain those 35 plus grams? Lots of fruits and vegetables, especiall pears and prunes! Also, an easy way is to drink prune juice. Drink one or two or three glasses at breakfast to lead the way for food moving through your colon. When you discover the right amount of fruits and vegetables and/or glasses of prune juice, you will enjoy those 15 second bowel movements once or twice a day. You can also consume psyllium fiber, or Super Seed, or Vital Fiber online or at your health food store. There’s no reason to suffer constipation or hemorrhoids with simple solutions. And, you don’t need to buy all those fancy laxatives. They are filled with chemicals. Keep it simple and basic.

Can Robert F. Kennedy help you if he becomes HHS secretary? In the end, he might be able to stop Monsanto from poisoning our food supply. He might put into play food standards that make the fast food joints stop feeding all that junk food filled with chemicals. But, it’s YOU who have to choose healthy exercise and eating.

In Part 3: We’re going to cover “how and what” to eat. How to detox your body from heavy metals and chemicals. How to make sure you avoid all the “crap” food, sugars, dyes, poisons, deadly synthetic sugars, best stores for your health, and how you can force your schools into healthy breakfast and lunch programs. Your dollars will drive this new “Make American Healthy Again” crusade.

Part 1: What you see is what will kill you. Becoming an obese society.

Last week, a 495 pound Detroit, Michigan woman made national news because her Lyft driver could not carry her because he said his car couldn’t take the weight and his tires wouldn’t survive.  She brought a lawsuit against him this week.

One look at that woman would bring to mind severe diabetes, a massive heart attack before age 35, or a devastating stroke that would render her crippled for life.  By 40, she would need both knees and hips replaced, and a new heart transplant all on the American taxpayer’s dollar.

If you watch TV programs, you might have seen, “My 600 Pound Life” or “Biggest Loser” or “Fat Friends.”  Each show captivates the audience with Americans struggling to lose weight 100, 200 and even 300 pounds from their bodies.

There’s one show that’s pro-obesity, “My Big Fat Fabulous Life.”  The women on the show flaunt their gargantuan obesity with tights, wigs, makeup, ugly cleavage that you want to “unsee”, and jewels.  You can witness their flabby arms and flabby legs dripping over their knees. Their ankles look like giant sausages gone wild.  To be sure, none of them are living a “fabulous life.”

Why is that life?  They must swallow endless high blood pressure pills, insulin to deal with their diabetes, pain killers to deal with their joints aching, livers disintegrating, stomach pills, Preparation H, and Metamucil to help them eliminate their deadly intake of sugar, salt, processed foods, diet sodas and just about every kind of unhealthy ‘food’ that they ingest.

What’s incredibly sad, they are eating the “S.A.D.”, which stands for the Standard American Diet.  It’s deadly to 66 percent of Americans because that’s the number of Americans who face obesity and gross obesity.  Half that 66 percent hit the “grossly obese” category. You can see it all around.  While you’ll witness 200 to 250 pound women in the Midwest and East Coast, you’ll see 250 and 350 pound men across all 50 states.

The medical costs are into the trillions of dollars.  You’ve got 1.0 million heart attacks annually for men. You’ve got another 1.0 million cancers of all kinds.  You see 399,000 deaths annually from diabetes. (Source: American Diabetes Association, www.diabetes.org)

We’re so unhealthy that most Americans suffer grave consequences because they consume only 15 to 20 percent fiber daily. That makes for an “eating to elimination” period of 72 to 90 hours.  That way, the food rots in the colon and rectum to create colorectal cancer, diverticulitis, hemorrhoids, polyps, and leaky gut. Colorectal cancers kill 50,000 Americans annually and another 150,000 discover they contracted that cancer each year.  All because of their “S.A.D.” food intake.

All those obese American women set themselves up for breast cancer because their “thick” fat blood cannot feed their mammary glands with enough oxygen and nutrients to keep them healthy. It’s called “high triglycerides” in the blood.  The red blood cells are stuck together with all the “oil” (fats) in the blood so they cannot deliver oxygen and food because the red blood cells are clumped together as they try to move through the capillaries.  The fatter a woman, the faster cancer will visit her.

Recently, the U.S. Surgeon General announced that drink beers and liquor causes seven kinds of cancers in 100,000 American males annually. On average, 20,000 die from those cancers.

As a former Cardiac Catheterization Medical Technician at Butterworth Hospital in Grand Rapids, Michigan, I witnessed obese bodies come into the heart lab daily. Fat, fatter, and obese!  Most of them in their 40’s and 50’s.  Smoking, drinking and 30 pound bellies of fat was their norm.  I would be talking to them before their procedure, and sometimes, I would watch them suffer a heart attack on the table. I would wheel them the morgue. It scared the living hell out of me.  Why? Because my father died at the age of 46.  He wasn’t fat, but his cholesterol was off the charts at 350 mgs per deciliter unit measure of blood.

For anyone reading this series, you need to keep your serum cholesterol at 160 mgs or below. The American average is 220 mgs, which is 60 points over saturation level. AVOID STATIN DRUGS AT ALL COSTS!  The higher you rise in cholesterol, the faster you clog your heart’s coronary arteries. Your HDL should be above 50 mgs/dl. Your LDL should be less than 100 mgs/dl.  If you allow yourself to cheat those numbers, you’re headed for instant death or the ICU, and/or stroke and being crippled.  That’s why I became a vegetarian 54 years ago and avoid dairy products.  Two of my brothers didn’t follow my advice. One died of a massive heart attack at 50 and the other suffered a horrible stroke at 55.

Do you drink soda pop or diet soda?  If you do, you’re part of the billions of dental cavities filled annually by dentists. Those carmels get between your teeth, set up bacterial colonies, and devour your enamel.  If you drink diet soda with Sucralose, it’s a synthetic sugar GMO that your system doesn’t know how to handle…so it stores the molecules in your fat cells.  You become a walking synthetic chemical sugar dump. By all means, if you don’t care, then, do the Dew!

DO I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION?

In the foregoing paragraphs, I’ve only covered a few things caused by the “S.A.D.”  If this series doesn’t sober the living h*ll out of you, I don’t know what will.  If you are fat or obese, I will give you keys to a “slim and trim” future.  If you would like to be around to see your kids graduate from high school, I can help you with knowledge.

If you think all those Big Pharma products with all those weird names will cure you, that would be a big mistake.  They never cure you. They keep you sick so they keep making money off you.

Most Americans think that the grocery stores fill their shelves with nutritional foods.  The average grocery store offers around 60,000 ‘food’ items.  About 50,000 of those cardboard packages, glass containers, plastic containers, metal containers…contain every kind of chemical under the sun.  Do you think the candy or cereal companies care about your health with their “massively sugared” cereals or fancy chemicalized drinks or preservatives that will make a packaged bakery good last for six months?  Answer: not on your life.

If Robert F. Kennedy enjoys confirmation to become the Secretary of HHS, we might see him going after grocery store food manufacturers who poison their foods. He might educate Americans on how to eat.  He might bring the weight of his office on the junk food joints.  Let’s face it, none of those burger places care about your health.  NONE!

In this series, you will learn how to eat well. You will learn how to live slim and trim. You will learn how be a healthy human being. In the end, the government won’t save you because there are TOO many mega-corporations like Monsanto that want to continue poisoning you to death. Money speaks louder with members of Congress.

Part 2: It’s the little nasty things from eating packaged foods daily that do all the damage.  If you want me to cover more facets of this series, email me: frostyw@juno.com I will research your request.  We all deserve to live a healthy, fulfilling and happy life.

“To clean up the mess Biden made, Trump has to clean up the mess that ‘made’ Biden.”  —Mark Alexander

For the past four years, January 20, 2021 to January 20, 2025, the American people have been lied to, cheated out of their taxpayer dollars, swindled out of their citizenship and roundly besieged with lies from Joe Biden, Jill Biden, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Talaib, AOC, Mayorkas, Austen, NBC, CBS, ABC, NPR and just about every liberal-leaning newspaper in the country.

All of them created a “fog of untruths” parading as “truths” to keep the American people in the dark.  Never in history have a cartel of news networks obfuscated the facts and downright lied like this in modern times.  The biggest questions is: WHY?  What did they hope to achieve?  What was their end game?  Who stood to benefit by cheating the American people about the truth about Joe Biden and his handlers?

How did the charade, mascaraed, and facade continue for THAT long?  How could men like Joe Scarborough, Jake Tapper, Jim Acosta, John Dickerson, Rachel Maddox, Joy Reid, et. al., be SO deceptive, SO filthy in their charade as to mislead the American people as to “Woke”, “Transgenders men competing against women as if it was acceptable”, “Critical Race Theory”, and “D.E.I.”, along with their endless attacks on Trump as to the Russia Hoax, Hunter Biden’s laptop, calling him “Hitler” and worse?

Joe Biden will go down in history as the crookedest, creepiest and most deceiving criminal ever to hold office in America.  He lied, sniffed little girls’ hair, “handsied” women, and brought millions of dollars via influence peddling to his family. In the end, he “preemptively pardoned” his family members crime syndicate.

If not for citizen-journalists across the gamut of America and the First Amendment, citizens would never get the facts as to what was actually happening in America.  Thank God for men and women like Victor Davis Hanson, Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Dana Perino, Greg Gutfeld, Pete Hegseth, Brian Kilmeade, Jesse Watters, Martha McCallum, John Scott, James Comer, Devvy Kidd, Lex Greene, Steven Yates , Kelleigh Nelson, and SO many others that brought Americans the facts and the truths about what was happening.

Let’s face it, our C.I.A. and F.B.I. lied to us. Our Merritt Garland at DOJ lied and waged “law fare” against Donald Trump with no other purpose other than bend the law into a quagmire of falsification of reality.  Thankfully, in the end, basic truths prevailed. The American people prevailed.

“The two enemies of the people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the Constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first.”  Thomas Jefferson

You can’t say it any better than that.  Our Founding Fathers knew about the Divine Right of Kings, and their treachery. You can go to Louis the XIV, or Napoleon, or Stalin, or Mao, or the rest of those treacherous men of history.  They all killed and lied their way to the top.

And so it is in America. Jill Biden covered up Joe Biden’s Alzheimer’s from 2019 to this day. Right now, she’s in their house in Delaware as his permanent caregiver 24/7.  But remember that she wanted him to run for a second term when it was MORE THAN OBVIOUS that he was decrepit in mind and body.  But that’s the nature of those who are extremists and covet power.  They don’t give a damn about, “We the people”, but they give everything to maintain their power, money and prestige.   Thankfully, with House Member James Comer, his latest book on Joe Biden’s financial fraud, the history books will expose Biden like the history books have exposed every tyrant for millennia.

Is there any chance we could expose people like U.S. Senator Schumer (D-NY) who granted driver’s licenses to illegal aliens Muhammod Atta and his gang that drove airplanes into the Twin Towers to give us 9/11?

What about exposing House Speaker Nancy Pelosi extended 20 year wars where she made millions on insider trading of defense contracts?  Any chance to prosecute her and her colleagues?

What about that bartender Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, (D-NY) in our House of Representatives who couldn’t pass a “common sense” test for a third grader?  She’s part of “the Squad” of mental midgets that lack, much like the Mayor of Philadelphia, Cherelle Parker,  the ability to spell “E G L E S” correctly.  Ma’am, please return to the fifth grade, and pass your spelling tests, repeat after me, “E A G L E S.”  That’s your NFL home team lady.  She is an example of “D.E.I.” which means, DIDN’T EARN IT, as to a high school diploma. It’s also called educational “affirmative action.”  That’s why the American Reading association reported that 45 million Americans are functionally illiterate.  Unfortunately, some of them bluff their way into becoming mayors or even House Members like Rashida Talaib, Maxine Waters, Sheila Jackson, Hank Johnson, and WAY too many others.

What about our country importing people like Somalian Ilhan Omar with a verifiable IQ of 68, yet she’s voted into the House by her countrymen in Minneapolis who also tip the scales as a collective IQ of 68?   She hates America because its not Islamic.  She stands with the Quran, which means she cannot pledge her honor the our U.S. Constitution because the Quran forbids it.  She stands with Sharia Law.  How did we allow that to happen?  She’s dumber than a box of rocks, but enjoys a platform she never earned and was not qualified to hold.

What about Whoopi Goldberg or Joy Reid?  Two of the biggest, emptiest mouths and brains in network TV.  They both hate America, yet both are paid millions to blabber their “horsefeathers.”  Talk about “WOKE” stupidity on a level unheard of in history.  Don’t forget, all White Americans are racists.  To both of them, many have said, “Those two are a collective of intellectual gerbils.”

How did we get a Cuban migrant DHS secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, along with his mutton-brained border czar Kamala Harris in positions to stop the border invasion, when they aided, abetted and organized it?  And yet, for four years, they lied to us, point blank weekly that, “Our borders are secured.”  What a bunch of crap!  Those two were the biggest “D.E.I.” hires in America’s history.  Where did they get us?  Oh, about 15 million illegal aliens biting us in the financial, taxpayer a** for billions of dollars.

We must go back to what brought us to the point where a major criminal like Joe Biden attained the White House.  Who actually ran this country for four years?  Some say it was Jill Biden, or Barack Obama, Chief of Staff Jeff Zients, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, maybe Kamala Harris.  It’s a foregone conclusion that Joe Biden was not capable of running America for the past four years.  Which makes all of them liars, Constitutional criminals, and American power extremists.

And, we paid their salaries!  We paid to watch NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, NPR and the rest of the hide the reality of Joe Biden’s dementia.

In the end, nothing could hide Biden’s incompetence and mental decline, but it gave us Ukraine, Hamas, our universities erupting in pro-Islamic riots, the 2021 George Floyd burning down riots, the $200 million in EBT card frauds by Somalians in Minneapolis and the incredible taxpayer burden of 15 million illegal aliens leaching off our taxes.

It’s sickening to see what has happened to our country!  It’s sickening to see what’s happened to North Carolina, and especially in California where incompetence reigns supreme in its “WOKENESS”, governor and mayors.

We need to bring back common sense, merit-based leadership, and patriotism toward our country.

As George S. Patton said, “Politicians are the lowest form of life on Earth; Democrats are the lowest form of politician.”

That pretty much sums up Joe Biden and what happened to America, and now, California. Oh, and Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker needs to learn how to spell her NFL team’s name:“E A G L E S.” Any fifth grader could teach her!

If the American people knew what Joe Biden did to this country with his engineered invasion of America, every citizen, whether liberal, independent or conservative, would be screaming for his head on a platter. In four years, the enormous damage he did to all 50 states, and to all 340 million American citizens, will go down in the history books as the biggest betrayal of public trust, EVER!

In a discussion with Jeremy Beck, Vice President at NumbersUSA.com, I came away with a newfound disgust for Joe Biden, and/or his handlers, for their betrayal of all Americans.

Mr. Beck, just give my readers an understanding of the incredible lies, deceit and consequences Biden perpetuated on America:

“President Trump was elected by voters who overwhelmingly rejected the historic wave of inadmissible aliens released into the country during the Biden administration,” Beck said. “This was arguably the issue that decided the election. And yet any attempt to repair the damage done by the border crisis will be undermined as long as the government is issuing U.S. citizenship to every child born to an inadmissible alien who has been released. Moreover, once that child turns 21, they can take advantage of our chain migration policies to sponsor the parents who violated U.S. immigration laws in the first place.

“President Trump’s order would end automatic citizenship for children who do not have at least one parent who is a U.S. citizen or a legal permanent resident. The order will be immediately blocked in lower federal courts. Roughly two dozen states have already sued to stop the administration. We at NumbersUSA have always said that the debate over whether or not automatic birthright citizenship (a practice only the U.S. and Canada practice among developed nations) is required by the 14th Amendment is one that will have to be answered by the U.S. Supreme Court.”

What most Americans don’t know stems from the fact that a minimum of 300,000 illegal pregnant women violate our borders annually, and birth their babies within the USA to gain enormous amounts of welfare, money, food and housing. Not only do we pay for the new babies, but for their care for 18 years while the mother enjoys welfare and food stamps. The costs over the decades rise into the trillions of dollars. And yet, Congress does NOTHING to stop it.

Reinstating “Remain In Mexico”

Beck said, “The Migration Protection Protocols (or MPP) is better known as “Remain In Mexico.” As the nickname suggests, the MPP required asylum seekers at the Southern border to wait in Mexico until their case was heard. Most asylum seekers decided to go home, rather than wait in Mexico while their illegitimate case was decided. President Biden ended the program. Biden allowed over 12 million illegal aliens to invade our country. The House passed a bill in the last Congress to reinstate it but the Senate never picked it up. Now, President Trump is reinstating it. We do not want to roll the dice on future administrations keeping the program in place. Congress needs to pass a law to make “Remain In Mexico” permanent.”

Ending the “CBP One” App

Beck added, “Millions of Americans who followed immigration over the last few years were shocked to learn that the Biden had been running a cell phone app where inadmissible aliens could schedule their appointments to be released into the United States. More than 900,000 inadmissible aliens have used the app to get released into the country. This absurd program is now over. Congress should pass a law to make sure it never comes back.”

Terminating all “categorical parole” programs

“As part of his securing our borders mandate via executive action, President Trump directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to “Terminate all categorical parole programs that are contrary to the policies of the United States established in my Executive Orders, including the program known as the ‘Processes for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans [CHNV],” said Beck. “The vast majority of inadmissible aliens released into the country during the Biden administration (peaking at about 1 million people per year!) were done so through parole. Parole is a legal process but it is supposed to be granted on a case-by-case basis. The Biden-Harris administration granted parole to broad categories of people, essentially nullifying any legal limits on immigration Congress put in place.”

One of those programs was the CHNV program mentioned above. Andrew Arthur at the Center for Immigration Studies gives the good, the bad, and the ugly on CHNV:

He said, “As I have explained in the past, CHNV parole is uniquely vulnerable to trafficking and exploitation, and in fact DHS stopped the program last summer amidst fraud concerns.

“Dealing with the hundreds of thousands of beneficiaries of the program here is the responsibility of ICE and Trump’s “border czar” Tom Homan, but the good news for them is that the application web page for CHNV parole is now blank, with the words “Page Not Found.”

“President Trump was elected by voters who overwhelmingly rejected the historic wave of inadmissible aliens released into the country during the Biden administration,” said beck. “This was arguably the issue that decided the election. And yet any attempt to repair the damage done by the border crisis will be undermined as long as the government is issuing U.S. citizenship to every child born to an inadmissible alien who has been released. Moreover, once that child turns 21, they can take advantage of our chain migration policies to sponsor the parents who violated U.S. immigration laws in the first place.”

If the American people possessed a clue as to the insanely enormous numbers of refugees, now at over 30 million, that have violated our laws, and our borders, they would vote out every U.S. Senator and House Member in Congress They’re all complicit in the invasion because the majority of them did nothing to stop Biden or his handlers.

Ever more interesting, we taxpayers fund hundreds of NGO’s, Lutheran Churches, Catholic Charities, and Sanctuary Cities into the billions of dollars. Each one of them serves lawlessness, violates our Constitution, and profits off every taxpayer—-while destroying the foundation of America’s laws.

As I’ve reported many times, the third world adds 83 million new babies, net gain, annually…therefore, the line of refugees never ends. Do you think we can save the rest of the world’s refugees? How? Can we continue to allow them to invade our country? Biden’s illegal actions, and those who supported him, lack any understanding that this “Biden Engineered Invasion” will cost every American citizen for decades to come. Biden launched America toward a demographic catastrophe heretofore never seen in human history.

Can Trump save our country? Will those insidiously stupid mayors and governors abide by our immigration laws? Will Sanctuary Cities be banned? Will we stop “anchor babies” by the millions from dipping into our welfare programs into the trillions of dollars with no end in sight? Can we survive the sheer numbers being added to America that will reach an added 100,000,000 (million) more people, net gain by 2050? Will we remain a sustainable civilization? What do you think?

A few nights ago, Joe Biden gave his farewell speech to the nation. In it, he whined about America being taken over by rich oligarchs. He blamed “red states” for making mistakes with their economies. He gave a litany of his accomplishments from his teleprompter. His ashen face, his frail body and his dementia-plagued mind did not shine through to the dozen or so Americans watching the broadcast.

His final speech might have been one where he apologized to the American people for his horrendous mistakes that led our country into a four-year nightmare. Here’s what Biden could have said:

“I am sorry for opening our borders to 15 million illegal aliens that comprised some of the worst criminals, rapists, murderers, gangs, mentally ill, illiterates, drug dealers, anchor baby mothers, MS-13 gangbangers, Tren de Aragua gangsters, and millions of their children that overwhelmed our schools, hospitals, and communities. I really screwed up worse than any other president in American history.”

“I am terribly sorry for causing the death of University of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley and hundreds of other women who have been raped, beaten, and abused by the illegal criminals I invited into our country. I cannot begin to make amends to her family and friends for my own stupidity, incompetence, and callousness.”

“I am sorry for choosing a vice-presidential running mate because of her color and gender. I should have chosen someone of merit, earned credentials and knowledge who would have done well on the world stage. I’m sorry that I allowed her to fail at being the “Border Czar”, because she did nothing to stop the invasion of our country. Of course, I’m sorry that I directed her to fail. Which shows me to be an utter failure. I failed my oath of office to the U.S. Constitution to protect the American people.”

“I am sorry that I appointed DHS Alejandro Mayorkas, a Cuban-born immigrant, to man the borders to protect our citizens. He proved a total and complete failure, liar and incompetent. He destroyed his character, and he destroyed the men and women of the U.S. Border Patrol. I’m sorry that he and Kamala Harris told the American people that our borders were secure, when they were clearly not secure.”

“I am sorry that, as commander-in-chief of the American military, I caused the death of 13 military personnel by my sheer incompetence of pulling out of Afghanistan. I allowed General Milley to lose $90 billion in U.S. military hardware. I oversaw the worst boondoggle in American military history. For their lives, their families, and our embarrassed military, I apologize from the bottom of my stone-cold heart.”

“I am sorry for my rampant stupidity in killing the Keystone Pipeline that would have provided oil energy to our country. My actions will be judged by historians as completely “dumb, dumber and dumbest.”

“I am sorry that I appointed a bunch of sycophants to my cabinet that were men who pretended to be women as they wore dresses, wigs, and high heels. That HHS Rachel Levine, somewhat obese, unbalanced and out of “his” league failed to inspire anyone toward betterment. That other guy I appointed wore dresses and stole suitcases at airports…well, he was/is a piece of a work. I apologize.”

“I am sorry that as my Alzheimer’s progressed over the last four years, my entire cabinet, and Kamala Harris, along with many liberal politicians and the mainstream media “covered” for me. I must thank my “teleprompter” speech writer for covering up my fading mind. I am sorry that they were dishonest, lacked integrity, and wanted to remain within the ring of power afforded them here at the White House. It proves British Lord Acton’s quote, “Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts, absolutely.”

“I am sorry to every American family that got hammered with impossible housing costs, rents, and food. I am sorry that I caused horrible inflationary prices for homes. I am sorry that I drove food prices through the roof. I must admit that I surrounded myself with people who didn’t know that they were doing because I didn’t know what I was doing. I’m sorry.”

“I’m sorry that I did nothing for the 774 million homeless Americans that slept on the streets while I supported millions of illegal aliens being paid to stay in hotels, with food, cell phones and medical care. I really screwed up on that one. I’m sorry that I supported Sanctuary Cities where incompetent and corrupt governors and mayors supported those millions of illegals in violation of our laws.”

“I am SO sorry that I supported DNA men competing in women’s sports because it was beyond stupid and recklessly idiotic that I would support such an irrational and totally moronic policy. I should have saved women from men stomping on them, hurting them, and betraying them. I am sorry for allowing DNA men pretending to be women to walk into women’s bathrooms and showers. I am sorry for what I did to Title IX women’s rights.”

“I’m sorry for supporting “woke” policies. Just a stupid way of thinking! Woke doesn’t fit reality or the 21st century. Every person in America earns his or her way into this society by personally accountability, personally responsibility, hard work, integrity, and credentials.”

“I’m SO sorry for supporting “Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity” because it’s worse than “Affirmative Action.” We all need to be responsible for equality of opportunity by our efforts.”

“I’m very sorry for causing a 70,000 shortfall in our military recruiting by my own stupidity of pushing Critical Race Theory, Woke policies, and other hair-brained ideas that don’t work.”

“I am sorry for the harm and deaths I caused for 270,000 Americans who died from drug overdoses from fentanyl, heroin, meth, and other drugs that I gave full measure to be allowed into America. I apologize to all those parents who lost kids to drugs.”

“I am sorry for weakening America’s power in the world that led to the Ukraine invasion and the October 7, 2023 slaughter of over 1,000 innocent Israelis by Hamas terrorists. I’m sorry for allowing Muslim terrorists to take over our colleges while waving Islamist Hamas flags along with Palestinian flags in our country. I’m sorry for encouraging that Islamic terrorist to kill all those people in New Orleans. I failed Americans.”

“I’m sorry that I allowed $81 billion annually, for the past four years, to be sent out of America by legal and illegal immigrants who send our money back to their countries while we pay for their medical, schooling, housing and food costs.”

“I’m sorry for pardoning my career-criminal son Hunter Biden. I also must apologize for my part in using my Vice-Presidential position to extort millions out of foreign countries to enrich my family members and son. I’m sorry that I raised such a drug-crazed, dishonest, perverted, and criminal son. He really should have gone to prison. As they say, like father…like son. He’s a chip off the old block.”

Finally, all Americans can only hope that such a dishonest man like Joe Biden never again inhabits the White House. We must vote for leaders who stand for America, first, always first, and forever first. We must vote for common sense, integrity, honesty, and leadership.

One of the heroes of WWII, General George S. Patton has been credited with saying, “Politicians are the lowest form of life on earth, and democrats are the lowest form of politicians.”

That comes from a no-nonsense man who changed the course of the WWII in Europe. Yes, General Dwight D. Eisenhower, commander of D-Day, made other pithy statements in his tenure as a general, and also as president of the United States. That’s back when Americans called a “spade a spade.” Back then, you learned “common sense” because you grew up on a farm.

On that farm, you learned never to pee on an electric fence more than once. You learned to shut the pasture gate, or you would take an hour chasing down all the cows to get them back into the barnyard. You learned to check the oil every day so grandpa’s John Deere two-cylinder motor wouldn’t burn up. You learned to repair the wire on the chicken coop so the fox wouldn’t eat all your chickens.

Another thing about growing up on the farm; you needed to do your chores, take care of your machinery and be accountable to your family. You had to learn how to read, write and perform mathematics. You learned to treat your neighbor like you wanted to be treated.

On a Sunday afternoon, you got to go fishing on Hogback Lake, Rose Lake or Crystal Lake. Those largemouth bass awaited your lure. You enjoyed life on the farm because you lived close to the earth, you changed with the seasons, and you understood your place in the world. You also knew that boys were boys and girls were girls.

That was then, and this is now. Today, “common sense” got lost somewhere between 1950 and 2025. Law and order got thrown into a woodchipper by moronic politicians to the point that crime and criminals provide daily fodder for news organizations. Something like only 20 percent of murders get solved in big cities. Thievery has become common place everywhere.

In big cities, teachers worry about getting killed by their students, and female teachers could very well get raped and killed by their students. Academic standards have been reduced to baseline rubble. The proof of that remains with the estimated 45 million functionally illiterate Americans wandering around America without a clue about life. They leach off the welfare system and drag the “Social Contract” into the gutter.

Then you get into the mind-bending drugs being distributed to our children by the hundreds of thousands. The deaths stats run off the charts. To help our citizens poison their minds and bodies, those same politicians open the flood gates of the country to drug cartels, dealers, and gangs. We’re talking millions of youths that cannot perform at school, don’t care, lack any understanding about contributing to our society, and think an E.B.T. card is their highest intellectual calling.

What about those politicians who break our laws, don’t serve our citizens, and couldn’t care less about the loss of life? One look at California’s current nightmare provides an ample example of Patton’s words. But, it doesn’t end there. That “Swamp” in Washington DC at this moment shows that a bunch of “self-important” buffoons are running America into the ground.

While they’ve made “transgender” and “CRT” and “Woke” policies their uppermost important mandates, they face around 70,000 military personnel shortfalls because “common sense” American youth don’t want to be insulted or squeamish by all that balderdash, malarkey, and bunkum. At some point, if and when, common sense returns to America, those transgender guys will be found to be a new class of mental illness. Who in their right mind wants to serve in our military with nut-job males who wear high heels and skirts? What women want to serve alongside such emotional and mental illness? Yes, they have the right to their madness, but 99.9 percent of the public should not be forced to comply with it.

When it comes to the “lowest form of life on earth,” look at the four-year Alzheimer’s illness in the White House that the majority of politicians covered up, along with the mainstream media. Let’s face it, those politicians and the “Legacy” media did everything to cover up the obvious. No wonder our U.S. Congress received a 17 percent approval rating. And, a minority of Americans believe anything the major networks are reporting.

And, what about this question: when it comes to common sense, who were the major players and “WHY” did those politicians open America’s borders up to over 12,000,000 illegal aliens from all over the planet? What was their purpose? What did they hope to accomplish by spending our tax dollars to the tune of $150 billion annually to take care of them—-when we can’t take care of our own citizens. What do I mean? The latest NPR reports showed 774,000 American citizens remain homeless. In the last week, another 20,000 plus in California are homeless because of the wildfires.

Those wildfires raged because Governor Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass cut over $117,000,000.00 (million) out of the Forest Management programs, and firefighting units. They let 100 firetrucks sit in the maintenance yard without mechanics to repair them. General Patton would have slapped both of them, and demoted them to water boy and water girl. What are the costs of their lack of foresight and preparation? Answer: NPR reported more than $350 billion to replace all those structures.

This commentary could be turned into a book with the enormous amount of corruption in “The Washington DC Swamp.” From Nancy Pelosi making millions off insider trading on military contracts, to $120 billion a year in cash transfers leaving our country from illegal and legal migrants. Then you’ve got intellectual morons like House member Maxine Waters who has done nothing in her 30 years of doing nothing for her constituents or for America, except to incite violence. The list must be as long as a football field.

If there was an ounce of common sense in Washington DC, they would take rational actions in favor of Americans, first. They would use common sense to change the violation of “anchor baby” mothers. They would stop the millions and billions in cash transfers. They would rescind the asylum bill. They would stop the sheer stupidity of DNA (XY) men competing in women’s sports. They would get out in front of dozens of problems and “correct” them instead of let them boil into irreversible problems with unsolvable outcomes.

Is it possible that “common sense” could return to America? Answer: it’s doubtful. Heck, over 50 percent of our youth cannot name the first president of our country. Most never heard of Ben Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and/or Abigail Adams or Eleanor Roosevelt.

Why do you think? George Patton said it, “Politicians are the lowest form of life on earth. Democrats are the lowest form of politicians.”

That’s why we call Washington DC, “The Swamp.”

In a recent podcast, a man I highly respect, Victor Davis Hanson, said, “D.E.I., Woke, and the Green New Deal are like a social hydrogen bomb hitting America. These new terms being practiced are de-civilizing California into a third world country. If other states follow California, they will end up in the same boat.”

The fires that destroyed California were preventable!  But Governor Gavin “Nero” Newsom, LA Mayor Karen Bass, and former San Francisco Mayor London Breed define incompetence, ineptitude, lack of skills, outright stupidity, and complete disregard for their constituents.

Instead of competence defined by “merit and experience”, “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion” places unqualified people into top positions they cannot handle. Additionally, they cannot command.  They don’t realize their own incompetence until the social nightmare of endless crime, Woke policies, D.E.I. policies, transgender insanity, and now, wildfires costing the Golden State a nightmare that will take years to recover.

While Mayor Karen Bass cut the LA Fire Department out of $17 million, she secured $1.2 billions of taxpayer money to feed, house, and protect illegal aliens in her Sanctuary City…of which number around 3.0 to 4.0 million invaders. They fill California prisons. Governor Newsom mandated $25 million to ensure his illegals would not suffer deportation.  Instead of serving the people of California, he serves illegal migrants from all over the world.  Thus, California buzzes like a beehive of crime, corruption, violence, looting, smash and grabs, schools trashed, hospitals overwhelmed, and, now, because he did nothing to mitigate wilderness areas of kindling and fire breaks, he watched helplessly as over 10,000 homes burned and rendered 50 square miles of scorched earth.

Those BIG mayors and that governor created a “systems breakdown” of their cities and the State of California.  Please note: Governor Newsom will run for U.S. President in 2028, and his key credentials will be good looks, toothy smile, and slicked back hair. Like Biden, he won’t have any solid “merits” to competently guide the United States of America.

When it comes to sheer stupidity, LA Mayor Karen Bass celebrates her hiring policies of 70 percent D.E.I. candidates.  When in fact, she’s the worst example of D.E.I. herself.  Former San Francisco Mayor Breed created the largest crime city in America by allowing thieves, if they stole less than $900.00, to walk free. The results were: 17 Walgreen Drug stores bankrupted. Smash and Grabs of cars’ valuables exploded into a crime syndicate worthy of national prominence. Two hotels bankrupted. Drunks and drug addicts to the tune of 170,000 and 50,000 homeless sprawled all over the LA’s and San Francisco’s streets.  Whole Foods failed after one year from shoplifting and violence toward employees. Dozens of other mercantile stores bankrupted.  Murderers roam the streets.

Again, “Corruption is a mechanism by which third world countries operate.”  If you import enough third world illiterate migrants, you are inviting endless crime in every major city that houses those migrants.

As it stands on the national scene, to get down to brass tacks, Joe Biden will be remembered as America’s weakest and most inept president in our entire history. He will also be remembered for his Alzheimer’s Disease that left him impotent for four years on the world stage.  He violated his oath of office by inviting 15 million illegal aliens to violate our borders.  He will be remembered for the “Biden Family Crime Syndicate” that sucked money out of foreign countries for favors while he enjoyed the Vice-Presidential office.  When the history books are written, we can only hope they expose the “inside circle” of his staff running our country into the ground.

Victor Davis Hanson said, “A combination of two self-evident truths. Joe Biden’s inept administration proved an ungodly disaster, not just for America but for the West as well, which looked abroad for a stronger America but found it weaker.”

Joe Biden’s bumbling arrogance, “Nearly destroyed the American military in Kabul. It ruined Western deterrence. It showered the Taliban with a multibillion-dollar new windfall arsenal. His lies, his incompetence, and, yes, his narcissism demoralized Americans and our allies.

“Biden sought to turn the once preeminent U.S. military into a cruel cultural woke joke. The train-wreck of the last four years was force-multiplied by Biden’s own feebleness, masked by the most scandalous media-politico conspiracy of suppression of it in U.S. history.”

Question: did the liberal U.S. media machine, on purpose, try to destroy America by not reporting Biden’s dementia?  Answer: you betcha!

“No one fears or listens to the now defenestrated frauds and tiring dissimulators: the Bidens, Fauci, Mayorkas, Garland, Milley, Austin, Jean-Pierre, Comey, Brennan, Clapper, or McCabe—and their old lies that Hunter was a brilliant artist, Biden is fit as a fiddle, no gain-in-function viruses, a bat caused COVID, the border is secure, Chinese army generals are more trustworthy than Trump, and the laptop was Russian.”

What an amazing four years of “horse manure” put out by Jen Psaki, Jean-Pierre, and the rest of the Biden entourage.  From this journalist’s perspective, Mayorkas should be tried, convicted, and deported back to Cuba. He cares NOTHING for the American people.

On January 20, 2025, we begin anew!  We denounce “Woke” thinking because it’s absurd, insane, inept, and stupid.  We denounce DNA men competing in women’s sports because it’s absurd, insane, unfair, and mindlessly moronic.  We denounce D.E.I., because it’s as unfair as “affirmative action.”  We need to return to common sense, merit, hard work, education, and personal responsibility.  If you’ve got a problem in a big city ghetto, get your butt down to the school board and speak to excellence in teachers, and children ready to learn because their parents taught them to enjoy learning.

If you demand a “greener and healthier planet”, vote for bottle, can and glass recycling laws at .20 cents per container. Move to have your city enforce all recycling laws.  Demand “Stop Growth” policies in big cities that cannot handle their already overwhelmed traffic gridlock.  Demand that grocers delete GMO’s, chemical sprays and fertilizers that poison your food supply. Offer cereals that aren’t saturated with pounds of white sugar, Sucralose, apertame, and high fructose corn syrup.  Use your dollars to put artificial foods and Monsanto out of business.

Demand that all criminals and illegal aliens see a jail cell and deportation.  Support our new president because he stands for all Americans.  We all need to pull in the same direction.

Let Joe Biden and Kamala Harris fade into the rear-view mirror like a bad dream.

This commentary may well sober you to understand, at our current foreign aid and immigration path, the wildfires in California won’t even make a footnote in the history books. Hurricane Katrina, Milton and Helene will hardly receive a few sentences. That date, 9/11, won’t make a paragraph. In the history books, those historians will document how America murdered itself as to foreign aid and immigration in all its forms.

In the past four years, we’ve given more than $250,000,000,000.00 (billion) dollars to Ukraine. All of Europe didn’t pay a tenth of that much money to help Ukraine. Yet, they stand in the crosshairs of Putin’s war machine, and now North Korea joined the battle! Almost certainly, Ukraine will lose the war and lose their country to Mother Russia. The latest reports show that we’ve given over $50,000,000,000.00 (billion) to Africa in the past year or so. We’ve given $158,000,000,000.00 (billion) to Israel since 1948.

In the past four years, your tax dollars have given illegal aliens and legal immigrants $150,000,000,000.00 (billion) annually. That adds up to $600,000,000,000.00 (billion) that none of us will ever see again.

Last year, your tax dollars paid out to 41,000,000 (million) low-income people in America in food stamps (EBT cards). The cost? Try about a minimum of $50.00 a day times 41 million people, X’s 365 days in a year. We’re talking into the billions and trillions of dollars! We’re talking your tax dollars are paying out to people from all over the world to live, eat and feed off the American working and woman.

What about foreign add to other countries. Your tax dollars pay out $70,300,000,000.00 (billion) in foreign aid annually. To whom?

Some of Countries That Received the Most Foreign Aid from the U.S. in 2024:

Ukraine ($17.2B)
Israel ($3.3B)
Jordan ($1.7B)
Egypt ($1.5B)
Ethiopia ($1.5B)
Somalia ($1.2B)
Nigeria ($1B)
Congo (Kinshasa) ($990M)

None of that money did any good whatsoever because foreign aid means stealing money off the poor taxpayers of a wealthy country and giving it to the rich people of a poor country. What’s more, most of those countries despise America. Try to figure that one out.

What about Anchor babies? The average of 300,000 pregnant illegal alien mothers cross our borders illegally annually, give birth in our hospitals at an average of $8,000.00 per birth, and the child enjoys free education K-12, with free breakfasts and lunches, while the mother enjoys EBT and Section 9 Housing. The money escalates into the stratosphere, and you’re paying it.

As stated before, illegal alien gangs shoplift $102,000,000,000.00 (billion) annually. You pay more for goods to make up that loss. In other words, your own government in the past four years allowed, invited, and transported 15,000,000 (million) illegal aliens to set up shop all over America. Governor Healy of Massachusetts suffered a breakdown that her Sanctuary State featured an illegal alien working a $1 million drug operation out of one her shelters. She will not cooperate with Trump’s I.C.E. teams, but she aids and abets illegal aliens in violation of America’s laws.

This column ONLY touches a few aspects of how the United States taxpayer, that’s you, suffers incredible financial damage by the very senators and House members you elected.

What does it all come to? We stand $36,000,000,000,000.00 (trillion) in national debt. Our tax dollars pay $1.5 trillion in interest annually to service the debt.

CAN WE SAVE THE REST OF THE WORLD FROM ITSELF?

I live in Colorado. We pay for somewhere around 50,000 illegal aliens with food, housing, transport, education and medical care. We can’t take care of our own 10,000 homeless poor, but our moron Denver Mayor Johnston said he will go to jail to save “his” illegal aliens. I.C.E. director Tom Holman said, “If he wants to go to jail, I’ll arrest him, prosecute him, and see that he goes to jail.”

The taxpayers of Colorado cheered!

Right now, in Colorado, at 3.3 million people, the Brown Toxic Cloud over Denver assures each resident breaths poison air 24/7. Projections show that Denver will reach 4.3 million within two decades. In other words, more poison air for everyone to breath with each breath. Mothers, babies, kids, and athletes all get to poison their lungs and blood streams with more polluted air, heavy metals, chemicals, et al.

On a weekend, starting at noon in the summer and winter, I 70 to campgrounds and to the ski resorts are bumper to bumper, 3 to 5 mph, stop and go for 90 miles to summit county. Once you get there to ski Vail, Copper, Breck and Keystone, you must fend for your life because it’s a human bumper car rally with SO many people.

Try to secure a campground at Lake Dillon, and you will be out of luck 99 percent of time. If you sail a boat, you can collide with another boat at every tack.

Try to get into a National Park each summer! You need a lottery number. If you do get in, you’re one of a mob of Americans trying to enjoy a wilderness experience. Yosemite might as well be New York Times Square; it’s so crammed with people. Same with dozens of other parks.

What’s driving the numbers? Answer: legal and illegal immigration and their birth rates drive about 80-90 percent of America’s population growth rate. We’re somewhere around 350 million, and headed for 440 million by mid-century.

I’m reminded of the Titanic on April 14, 1912 as it sped through the iceberg infested waters of the North Atlantic to reach New York City in record time. Darn, if it wasn’t for that iceberg off the starboard bow, 1,300 people would have enjoyed NYC instead of a watery grave. Everything looked good until everything went to hell in a hand basket.

Well, right now, the U.S.S. America looks good. Richest country in the world. Citizens enjoy the highest standard of living in the world. Energy still abundant. Food everywhere. Who cares if every city stands eyeball deep in problems of transportation, air pollution, over 800,000 homeless Americans, etc., etc., etc….

What we don’t see grows ever-bigger like that iceberg that awaited the Titanic. Third world countries keep adding 83,000,000 new babies annually, net gain. That’s right; in 2024, third world humans added 83 million new babes that they can’t feed, house, educate or sustain. Guess what? They’re coming to America, Canada, and Europe.

So, what do you want for your children? What are you going to tell them in 2050 when they’re in the middle of 440 million people in America fighting for water, energy and resources? Will there be any solutions? Will there be any quality of life?

Yes, I am an “Outlier.” I’ve already seen 20 of the largest cities in the world. It’s not pretty. It IS pretty sickening!

Can we save the rest of the world’s billions of desperately poor? With money? With military hardware? With Food? Answer: not a snowball’s chance in hell. They must save themselves.

Every person reading this column, especially if you have kids, you need share it until every American citizen reads it. We must educate our population to what’s coming, and then, we must take action to STOP mass immigration and change course like the Titanic should have, toward a sustainable civilization. It’s the only way our children will stand a chance to live a reasonable and fulfilling life. Otherwise, we will continue on the same course as the H.M.S. Titanic way back in 1912 with the same result.

Last week, the U.S. Surgeon General stated that imbibing alcohol in all its forms, causes 100,000 cancer diagnoses annually and 20,000 deaths in several different forms: colorectal, breast, throat, mouth, liver, stomach, and other organs.

Those are some “heavy”, if not sobering statistics for anyone drinking beer daily, or on weekends. For those college students who “binge” drink, nothing like a colorectal cancer diagnosis to spoil your entire life.  For the individuals who get “smashed” at parties, drive drunk and kill themselves or others, what a way to ruin your life and the lives of others.

All sorts of different kinds of drunks live in America.  One of my old college girlfriend’s father drank only at home.  His wife attended Al-Anon meetings to help her cope because she wouldn’t divorce him.  One of my friends drank two bottles of beer nightly, seven days a week, until he read in a medical journal that two beers a night constitutes “alcoholism.”

During my youth, my Uncle Scott and Uncle Jack drank themselves silly.  But they expressed their drunkenness in two different ways:  Uncle Scott drank seven days a week.  At milking time, he would beat the cows with a 2 by 4 wood club to get them to move into position.  He beat his dog “Puchie” until the dog hid out at our farmhouse across the road.  He beat his wife and daughter until they both fled, never to be heard from again. When Scott drank, I left the area.  Uncle Scott was a mean, nasty drunk.  One weekend while fishing on Hogback Lake, my brother Rex and I heard on the transistor radio that Uncle Scott got into an argument over the size of a window being fitted into the garage. It got so heated that Uncle Scott’s friend pulled out a shotgun and blew Uncle Scott in half. We sat there in the boat, traumatized.  We’ll never forget it.  Scott was 44 at the time.

Now Uncle Jack proved himself a “funny” drunk who would tell jokes, dance the jig, and generally make a fool of himself.  His wife and kids could not have anyone over for dinner or to visit.  He drove only 30 miles per hour in his 1949 GMC pickup, but he would top a hill on the left side of the road.  I sat in “shotgun” one time when he drove that deadly habit, but never again. At only 15, I rather enjoyed living.  Because Uncle Jack smoked two packs a day, plus 15 to 20 beers at a clip, he died of cirrhosis of the liver, along with lung cancer at 52.

One of my old college buddies drank himself from a 6’1” 180-pound stud-muffin into a 280 pound ball of flab. I didn’t see him until 50 years later by accident—- to witness his grotesque body. We didn’t possess much in common because I’d rather ride a bike or play tennis than drink.  He’s still alive, but smoking and drinking turned his body into a walking cadaver.

Because of Uncle Scott and Uncle Jack, at 15, I decided I didn’t want to be like them.  So, I never got drunk. I’ve been a “Teetotaler” all my life.  Does that make me boring?  Heck the ladies used to line up to dance with me because I took all that money for dance lessons.

In fact, when I talk to high school kids with my “Living Your Spectacular Life” program based on my book, I invite them to save over $250,000.00 without working.  How?  “I haven’t drank,  done drugs, smoked or drank coffee for my whole life.  If you add up the minimum costs of steady drinking, smoking, drugs, and coffee, you can save a quarter of a million dollars by the time you’re 60-70.”  While they sit in the audience, they figure up what it costs on their cell phones, and they whisper, “He’s right…he saved a quarter of a million dollars.”

Then I say, “What did I do with all that money?  Well, I’ve bicycled across six continents, 15 times across the USA, stood on the South Pole, stood on the Wall of China, scuba dived all the oceans, explored the Galapagos Islands, and eight biking trips to Alaska.  And, I stand before you today with clean lungs, healthy heart, healthy liver, and fit to do more.”

I’ve had students who followed my program write me years later, “Your book changed my life. I found my dream, chased it, caught it, and I’m living it.”  It feels good to help others find their path.

On the perils of drinking besides cancer, 42,000 people die on our highways annually.  An average of 13,000 die from being drunk while driving and/or kill others. Another 4,000 die from “texting” while driving, plus 362,000 injuries and wrecked cars.  The costs grow astronomically.

“On average, 37 people die in drunk-driving crashes in the United States every day, which is about one person every 39 minutes. In 2022, 13,524 people died in alcohol-impaired driving crashes.” (Source: Alcohol Abuse Inst.)

Additionally, alcohol becomes a license to kill your female partner in many cases.

“Every day, nearly 3 women are killed by an intimate partner — making the United States one of the deadliest countries for women and girls.  Honor killings in Islamic countries account for 20,000 female deaths at the hands of family members, annually.” (Source: www.Sanctuaryforfamilies.org)

If you look at the 540,000 homeless in America, you’re looking at alcohol and drugs as the main culprit.

Excessive alcohol use can lead to:

• High blood pressure.
• Heart disease.
• Liver disease.
• Stroke.
• Alcohol use disorder—this affects both physical and mental health.
• Digestive problems.
• Weaker immune system—increasing your chances of getting sick.

Alcohol and Divorce

If you’re married to an alcoholic, you face twice the chance for divorce and violence.

How many alcoholics in America?

According to the 2023 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 28.9 million people in the United States ages 12 and older had alcohol use disorder (AUD) in the past year. This is about 10.2% of people in this age group.

In the end, we all see those beer, wine and whiskey commercials. Sexy women and handsome men!  What we don’t see are the incredible tragedies that beset 28 million American people and their families.  I must thank my Uncle Scott and Uncle Jack for turning me into a “Teetotaler.”

Are you angry about what’s happening to our country? I am livid! I could just spit at this president and Congress. Every day we click on the television, yet another tragedy visits endless Americans. It’s beyond comprehension.

Some nut job Muslim ISIS terrorist killed 15 and wounded 30 by driving his truck down Bourbon Street, New Orleans at high speed. He carried I.E.D.’s along with a reported couple of other terrorists with more I.E.D.’s set up in other parts of the city. They’re calling it the “New Orleans Massacre.” It’s another mini-9/11 perpetrated on the American people because our horses-ass president and Congress won’t stop mass-illegal immigration from Islamic countries.

They said Mr. Jabbar was an American citizen. That’s false! He’s a pretend citizen. No Muslim will ever be a loyal American citizen because they believe in the Quran. And, the Quran forbids any believer to betray the dictates of that most violent book of Islam. It commands its believers to, “Covert or kill all non-believers.” Muslims only honor Mecca and Mohammed, along with their violent god, Allah. They cannot and do not subscribe to the U.S. Constitution. Yet, our idiots in Congress keep pumping them into our country like fleas off a camel’s rump.

I’ve worked in New Orleans. I admire Senator John Kennedy (R-LA). He’s down-home country with common sense and incredible humor. I wish the rest of the U.S. Senate and House thought like him, spoke like him and made sense like him.

If you visit Detroit, Michigan, you can see “Little Baghdad” being recreated in our country. All on welfare! If you visit Minneapolis, Minnesota, you’ve got “Little Mogadishu” of Muslims piled in on each other at over 120,000 of them, and they’re all on welfare off American taxpayers’ backs. It’s almost mind boggling to think some politician in Washington DC thought it was a good idea to import that savage 6th century religion into our country. Look what they’re doing to our Jewish citizens whom the Muslims want exterminated. And, we sit here paralyzed when they march around with ISIS flags and Palestinian in America. Those holding those flags vehemently hate America.

Why did Joe Biden absolutely betray our country? Or, why did his handlers betray our country in the past four years? Why? Biden and/or his handlers invited, engineered, and paved the way for 15 million illegal aliens of every kind of stripe: terrorists, rapists, murderers, crazy people, ISIS Jihadists, illiterates, drug dealers, MS 13 gangs, Tren de Aragua gangs, shoplifting gangs, and worse. Even the ones that are simply refugees, cost U.S. taxpayers $150,000,000,000.00 (billion) annually for the past four years. (Source: www.fairus.org)

Those illegals have killed Laken Riley at the University of Georgia. They’ve killed women and raped them in San Francisco, LA, New York City, Miami——and yet, those fools like Gavin Newsom, Kathy Hochul, Jared Polis in Colorado, and that worthless mayor in Chicago, Brandon Johnson, keep their Sanctuary Cities open to all those criminal illegals. None of it makes any sense!

Is Biden gunning for becoming the WORST president of all time? Well, he’s there! He is the worst U.S. president, ever!

About 270,000 drug overdose deaths in the past four years of Americans because of Biden’s open borders would tell you that Biden is hundreds of times worse than 9/11 of only 3,000 deaths by Muslim terrorists.

Whose city and which Americans are the next, “_______Massacre” that we all get to read about, or we are dead because of Biden’s open borders and Congress doing nothing to stop 15 million illegals.

France did the same thing to itself in the 1970’s. It opened its borders. Jean Raspail, in Camp of the Saints, said, “You don’t know my people—the squalor, superstitions, the fatalistic sloth that they’ve wallowed in for generations. You don’t know that you’re in for if that fleece of brutes ever lands in your lap. Everything will change in this country of yours. They will swallow you up.”

Today, France stands eyeball deep in division with its “Muslim brutes” who are taking over. All of Europe has bent itself into a pretzel to welcome the third world’s illiterate brutes—-and now, they have destroyed their countries as to culture, language, and way of life. It’s sickening to see it firsthand.

America continues to “diversify” itself to death. “Diversity within a nation destroys unity and leads to civil wars. Immigration, a benefit during the youth of a nation, acts as a disease in its mature state. Too much internal diversity in large nations has led to violence and disintegration,” said social scientists Garret Hardin. “We are now in the process of destabilizing our own country through the unlimited acceptance of massive immigration. The magic words of the destabilizers are “diversity” and “multiculturalism.”

One historian said, “Most great nations don’t die by being conquered; they die by internal suicide.”

In the end, Biden IS the biggest liar, biggest con man, and most dishonest president in U.S. history. He was part and parcel of his son’s millions of dollars from influence pedaling with Burisma and China. He pardoned his liar, thief, con-man, drug addict, whoring son named Hunter Biden. To pardon him for 10 years and 11 months of crimes means he was a career, hardened criminal. Like father like son!

If we Americans continue to vote people like Schumer, Pelosi, AOC, Rashida Talaib (Muslim), Ilhan Omar (Muslim), Brandon Johnson, Gavin Newsom, Hickenlooper, Bennet, Polis, Biden, et al., we Americans are putting a noose around our necks, while they pull the drop cord that lets us die a miserable death.

In 2025, we must take action to support President Trump to pull us out of this nose-dive. Our very existence as a viable civilization hangs in the balance.

Without a doubt, 2024 brought America some big HIGHS and some horribly sad LOWS. Good things happened most of the time and some really BAD things happened that shake-up your faith in humanity. Let’s examine a few of them.

Let’s give tribute to Jimmy Carter, our 39th president, for his 100 years of service to America. From a poor peanut farmer without running water or a toilet, or electricity in South Georgia, he rose through the ranks of the United States Navy, and later, to governor of Georgia, to become president of the United States. While some berated his presidency, history will show that he was one of our most honorable, honest and compassionate presidents. He honored the Bible, taught Sunday school classes, built homes for “Habitat for Humanity”, and led the world by example toward peace and harmony.

Next, let’s honor the most Gold Medals in swimming by Katie Ledecky in the summer games in Paris, France. And, at the top of the crown jewels of gymnastics, Simone Biles captured our hearts with her incredible feats of brilliant athletic maneuvers. Who can forget Patrick Mahomes bringing home the crown jewel of the Super Bowl for a third time? At the same time, the University of Michigan won the national title. America enjoys SO many exceptional athletes. We bow our hats to all of them.

Yet, for each little leaguer who took home a trophy in every state of the Union, his or her triumphs made a lot of moms and dads proud. Sports binds us together like no other medium. Whether it’s tennis, racquetball, triathlons, Iron Man, NHL, MLB, NFL, Kentucky Derby, and so many other sports—America stands rich in athletics for all of us to enjoy.

In 2024, thank you to every teacher and college instructor who gave your “all” to educate our children toward accomplishing their highest and best in America. Thank you to every police officer and firefighter, and/or first responder for saving lives and giving hope when others turned away. Thank you to every registered nurse or aide that helped someone in need. Thank you to our doctors and staffs for giving others a chance to live. Let’s honor St. Jude’s, and Tunnel to Towers, and the Humane Society for their work to save humans and animals.

Obviously, the saddest aspects of 2024 continue as wars provoked by Russia against Ukraine. Hard to figure out why one man would want to kill hundreds of thousands of young men. And, why one religion wants to eradicate another religion off the face of the planet. We humans remain the strangest and oddest, and most violent species on this planet.

Then you have an illegal alien come to this country to light another person on fire in a New York subway until she burned to death. That one broke this journalist’s heart.

For those tens of thousands of homeless in America, why can’t we find solutions? What are we waiting for in this richest nation on Earth?

Thank you to Daniel Penny, former U.S. Marine, in a NYC subway for standing up to protect others from harm. Thank you for every Marine, Navy, Army, Air Force and Coast Guard service man/woman for defending our country. This country stands as the beacon for freedom and the light around the world.

Thank you to each “trash picker-upper” who takes a bag out on the highway every spring to pick up the trash from cars, trucks and others who toss millions of pieces of trash every year. I call them “litter-bums.” I’m with you as you walk out there along our nation’s highways, lakes, rivers, and streams to keep them clean.

Thank you to each mother and father who treats your children with honor, respect, kindness, and maintains their “curiosity” at school and in life. You’re the real heroes that make this nation thrive.

While there is very little “good” to say about our outgoing president, let’s hope a new form of leadership in 2025 brings us a more peaceful, prosperous and ecologically balanced world.

Let’s hope that common sense and rational minds deliver us from “WOKE” thinking and “WOKE” stupidity such as men competing in women’s sports. Let’s toss off the stupidities of D.E.I. and turn toward personal merit, education and effort. Let’s cast off the lines of the insanities of Critical Race Theory, and become a nation where everyone enjoys an equal chance, equal respect and equal life opportunities.

While we respect everyone’s right to LGBQT+, let’s keep it out of our elementary classrooms. Let those children grow up healthy and balanced in their developing years. They’ll learn about other ways soon enough.

For heaven sakes, let’s stop “transgender” operations of children. We need to pass laws that no one can mutilate a child until that child is aged 21 to choose with a more rational mind, if they want to disfigure their bodies. It’s like tattoos; once you disfigure your body with ink, you cannot change the damage. Once you disfigure your body by cutting it up, you cannot get back what you once enjoyed as body parts.

Let’s hopefully move our politics to “term limits.” We’ve been led by a man who suffers from Alzheimer’s Disease for the past four years. He caused the press to lie for him. He caused his wife to lie for him. His closest associates lied for him. His press secretary lied for him. His four years in office have made him the second worst president in United States history, according to historian Bill O’Reilly in his latest book. Little wonder when you realize that this president did not have command of his mental faculties. We’re lucky to have survived as a nation under such lies and deceit.

Nonetheless, history marches forward. This New Year promises new possibilities. Dana Perino at FOX NEWS said, “Scientists are going to find a cure for Alzheimer’s in 2025.” I immediately burst out crying because every day of my life is affected by that cruel disease.

Maybe humanity will find a way toward peace in 2025. Let the Russians let the Ukrainians live their lives in peace. Let Hamas allow Israel to live in peace. Let citizens of Iran change their leadership to that of peace and harmony toward their neighbors.

Let’s move toward feeding the world’s starving masses. Let us help one another toward a better world where everyone thrives in freedom, peace, opportunity and happiness. While that may be a tall order, remember what Gandhi said, “You must be the change you want to see in the world.” God bless America!

If you look out across movie-land during this Christmas season, you see Gladiator II, which depicts how Roman rulers entertained 60,000 of their blood thirsty citizens via the famed Coliseum. When I visited Rome on my bicycle ride from Nord Kapp, Norway to Athens, Greece—I took a guided tour around the arena. Over 1,000,000 men died in that Coliseum and another 3,000,000 animals during the 400 plus years of the “games.” For some reason, even in 2024, we “love” violent movies, Stephen King’s books, scary movies, robot killing machines and all sorts of mayhem. That’s why Hollywood keeps pumping them out. It’s little wonder that our youth shoot each other at the drop of a hat in our big cities. They’ve been trained by violent video games, movies, and TV shows. Personally, I don’t watch horror movies because I don’t want that kind of “gruesome activity” scaring me half to death in my dreams. Once you see a horror movie, it remains in your head for your lifetime. I also don’t like wars, violence, or deviant human behavior. But every time you turn around, you read about disturbed people committing all sorts of horrible acts of every conceivable type.

So, for a moment, let’s get away from the violence, the horrors, the endless bad news—and take a bicycle ride with me. You may have read this story before, yet it shows the beauty that humans create through song.

The mystique of bicycle travel fascinates most people. Why would anyone “endure” the pains of providing their own locomotion via pedaling rather than the comfort and speed of a car, boat, plane, or train? The answer lies in the antiquity of “pedaling bliss.” It thrives in the meshing of your energy with the vivacity of the universe. It rushes into the secret corners of your mind to explore the world on your own terms. Too much comfort leads to tedium or the indolence of life. Once you swing your leg over the saddle of a bicycle, a whole new mental, physical, and spiritual dimension opens to every cell in your body. You “fly” at the “perfect speed” with a comet’s tail of memories following you into eternity.

(Frosty Wooldridge, outside the Coliseum in Rome, Italy.)

On a bicycle tour through the enchanting history of Europe, my friend Gary and I sweated our way into the Italian Alps. We pushed our bikes around hairpin curves, through boreal forests and across mountain ramparts. At Spluggin Pass, we coasted 37 kilometers along a winding, sharply descending mountain road that carried us through dark tunnels that led into bright sunshine and flowery Italian meadows.

Ancient Roman ruins dotted the landscape. At lower elevations, 1,000-year-old stone homes housed farmers who worked the land. At the bottom of the Alps, we entered Lago Como (Lake Region) for a ride south into the enchanting land known as Tuscany. If you watched the movie “Under the Tuscan Sun” with Diane Lane, you felt the romance of that vineyard-filled region of fine wines and superb dining.

When you travel through Italy, you travel back in time to walled-cities that protected their inhabitants from the constant charges of competing armies from other towns. Whether you travel through Sienna, Cali-val- Delsa, Florence, Naples, or Rome—all those cities once featured or still maintain thickly layered brick ramparts surrounding their main living and commerce areas. And always, each walled-city features an ancient, marble church with tapestries, paintings, stained glass windows and stunning architecture.

One night, we pedaled through a hilly region of Tuscany until we reached a river with a hill that swept upward.

“Let’s bed down up on that ridge after we take a bath in the river,” said Gary.

“Roger that,” I said.

Upon washing the day’s grime off our bodies, we walked the bikes up the hill about 150 feet above the highway to a flat spot. We pitched the tents, cooked dinner, and watched the night sky reveal millions of twinkling stars.

Next morning, we pedaled along the same road until, in the distance, we discovered a walled-city perched high on a hill.

“Let’s check that one out,” said Gary.

“I’m with you,” I said.

We pedaled through woods and fields until the road spiraled upward toward massive 150-foot-high brick walls over 1,500 years old. Along the way, we passed a small, abandoned chapel where a work crew repaired furniture. We stopped to see old paintings and statues along the church walls. Those repairmen didn’t think much about working with artifacts and antiquities from centuries ago.

Finally, after sweating up the road, we reached the massive 20-foot-high wooden gates of the city. They hadn’t been closed for a hundred years or more. Once inside the city, we stopped at a water fountain to fill our bottles and splash cool liquid into our faces. Around us, shopkeepers and patrons walked along the inside of the walls. A few kids pedaled their rusty bikes as they stared at us. About 100 feet from the fountain, a gray, marble cathedral soared toward the sky. At the top, stained glass windows perched atop beautiful carved frescos.

“Do you hear kids singing?” I asked Gary.

“Sounds like a children’s choir inside that cathedral with someone playing a guitar,” he said.

“Let’s check it out,” I said.

We walked up the marble steps of the church. “Look at these steps,” Gary said. “They’re worn down an inch at least from the centuries of worshipers coming to church. Generation after generation for over 1,500 years. Man, this is living history.”

We entered the church to sit in 1,500-year-old wooden pews that sat 100 people. In the front, about 20 children and a guitar player practiced their songs in Italian. Their young voices mesmerized us.

For the next half hour, children’s voices carried like musical chariots across the inner chamber of that ancient church. The sun shone through the stained glassed windows like colors from a double rainbow. The scent of history permeated every painting. Gray marble columns rose 150 feet over our heads. A stunning statue of Christ hung from a cross with blood dripping down from his hands and body.

For the next 30 minutes, we sat in sublime joy with Italian songs floating through the air. We couldn’t understand the language, yet our hearts and spirits felt their beauty.

While my bicycle carries me into magical moments on this planet, that day in the cathedral with a children’s choir lifting their voices to the heavens must be one of the most sublime moments of my lifetime. Afterwards, we thanked the children with, “Grazia” and “Molto bene” (exceedingly good) from our limited Italian language talents.

Back into the sunshine of the day, we remounted the bikes for our journey through the enchanting countryside of Tuscany. I thanked Gary for his friendship. I thanked the children for their voices. I thanked my lucky stars to bear witness to the beauty humanity offers in music, spiritual quest, and architectural beauty.

On our touring bikes, we added another thread into the tapestry of our lives.

Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed starred in Frank Capra’s 1946 iconic Christmas movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life.”  At the time of its release, critics condemned it, and movie-goers gave it a lukewarm reception.

But most baby boomers have watched it over 50 times in their lives. I know I have!  It pulls at my heart strings.  It pulls at my sense of friendship, purpose, dreams and wishes.  The brilliant underlying theme remains to this day that we all need love, friends, family and purpose in our lives.

At the end of the movie when George Bailey stands on the bridge in a snowstorm about to end his life, he is granted his wish to come back to his time and be with his family. The angel Clarence said, “No man is a failure who has friends.”  Of course, because Clarance did a good turn to help George Bailey from committing suicide, the little daughter said, “Every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.”

This Christmas in America, Canada, and Europe where Christianity still tugs at peoples’ heartstrings, millions of people will celebrate the birth of Christ. That divine birth stands as “renewal” for living, hope, and faith. Our species needs “hope” in the face of the multitude of challenges we have created for ourselves in the 21st century.  Often times, I’m at my wits end as to how America is going to survive our exhaustion of energy, our overpopulation crisis, our water crisis, our immigration predicament, catastrophic climate destabilization, species extinction rates, our national debt, and terrorism.

What’s happened lately with that Mangione kid executing that CEO of United Healthcare—-just leaves me sickened. Worse, 40 percent of Generation Z kids support his killing the CEO Brian Thompson.  It tells me that their “moral relativism” will tear at the foundation of our “rule of law” and sense of living in a free society.  You just can’t go around shooting people…and think it’s okay for your reasons.  Chicago and New Orleans, the murder capitals of the United States, cause everyone to fear for their lives just walking down the street.  That’s where “moral relativism” ends up.

This Christmas, many people will spend time with friends and family. Many other people, less fortunate, will spend Christmas living on the streets in their rags, tents and sleeping bags.  Their only comfort might be a bottle of Scotch, or a syringe filled with some horrible drug.

It’s the dichotomy of life in the United States and around the world.  We’ve got tens of thousands being killed in Ukraine on both sides of the battle line.  We’ve got starvation and death in Gaza.  We hear about 3.1 million children who have starved to death in 2024 around the world.  Another 10 million adults died from starvation and malnutrition in 2024.  Even in the richest country in the world, we see 1 in 6 people in America facing food insecurity. Soup kitchens find long lines of desperate people. If you live in a large city, you see beggars on many street corners.

For this journalist, this time of Christmas grows my sense of gratitude for my good fortune.  Unlike George Bailey, I did get to travel the world.  Thankfully, in the United States, most people live decent lives.  We’re the fortunate ones.  We’re the lucky ones.  Yes, for certain all of us have faced some nasty persons in our lives like that banker scoundrel Mr. Potter.  That guy would cut your throat for a dollar.

But you know, I have discovered in my long life, that nasty people like Potter get their “Karma” returned because they lack honorable friends, family and standing in the community.

The one rule that I follow when I meet up with such insidious characters that lie, cheat and/or steal from me—-I maintain my integrity.  I forgive them.  I thank God that I am not one of them.  Definitely, the world is full of pickpockets, embezzlers, liars, cheats and thieves.  They can keep that negative energy and negative life force. I’ll move toward the light.

I’ve always chosen education, hard work, and determination to guide me along my life’s path.  Last year, trying to get a movie contract for one of my books, I got conned out of a chunk of money.  After it happened, I said to myself, “Never again!”

As you watch the different dark paths that George Bailey walked during the movie, you can’t help but understand the genius of the writer who created the script that was a short story by Phillip Van Doren Stern, “The Greatest Gift”, in 1943.  You must know that WWII had all our parents by their throats for five years.  Millions of kids died in WWII.   It’s tough trying to look at the good side of life, but Stern created his masterpiece that we all watch 70 years later with Donna Reed and Jimmy Stewart.

So, this Christmas, wherever you are in your life, whatever your age, whatever your family, and whomever your friends—take stock of your blessings.  Please know that your friends depend on you for laughter, fellowship, listening ear, love and heart.  Many times, they cannot express it, but each person they touch, or you touch, makes a difference in all our lives.  A civilization like ours succeeds when we respect one another, care about each other, and work toward the common good.  That’s the beauty of the United States of America.

May God bless you. May God bless your family. May God bless your community.  Vaya con Dios!

Merry Christmas from Sandi and Frosty Wooldridge, Golden, Colorado

Part 2: Forcing Americans into a criminal hole. Forcing Americans to deal with consequences brought directly to them by illegal immigration and sanctuary cities.

At a city council meeting this past week in Chicago, Illinois, a Sanctuary City, Mayor Brandon Johnson forced another $40 million borrowing debt on the people of Chicago to house, feed and care for 51,000 illegal aliens in their midst. Even while hundreds of African-American Chicagoans screamed at him to serve them instead of the illegals, he tossed them out of the meeting. Then, the council passed the $40 million loan to care for the illegals.

At the same time, Illinois Governor Pritzker houses 400,000 illegals all over the state. They constitute a new criminal class of shoplifters, anchor babies, Section 8 Housing recipients, educational nightmares, medical super-nightmares, and total degradation of life in the Land of Lincoln. (Source: www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org ) What’s the cost for all this to Chicago residents? Answer: $527.5 million as of this year to house, feed, and sustain those enormous numbers of illegal aliens. Worse, there’s no plan or solution as to what to do with them.

This kind of insanity continues in democrat strongholds around the country. It’s like democrat leaders put illegals first and Americans last.

What does it cost Americans? Remember this, “Corruption is a mechanism by which third world countries operate.” Because it is, when a person arrives from a third world country, that person brings his or her culture and criminal proclivities with him.

Right now, illegal aliens constitute an enormous amount of gang shoplifting that costs Americans $112 billion annually, and another $85 billion in fraudulent returns. That’s up from five years ago when the national shoplifting rate stood at $52 billion. With Biden’s open borders and another 15 million illegals in the country, it’s almost tripled because that’s how those third world people operate.

“In 2022, US retailers lost $112.1 billion to retail theft, which was a 19% increase from 2021”:

* Shrink: This is the term for inventory losses, which are mostly due to theft and organized retail crime (ORC). In 2022, the shrink rate was 1.6% of sales, which is the same as 2019 and 2020.
* Fraudulent sales returns: Retailers also lost $84.9 billion in fraudulent sales returns in 2022.

Who pays for all that fraud? Answer: you do in higher prices because merchants need to make up their losses with higher prices.

Who else suffers? In Sanctuary City San Francisco, 17 Walgreen Drug stores bankrupted from shoplifting. Whole Foods bankrupted within one year of operation. Two hotels closed. Dozens of small businesses bankrupted because 50,000 illegals in San Francisco continue to rob, shoplift, steal and cheat wherever they can work their thievery.

If you walk down a city street in San Francisco, you would be dodging piles of human waste, stench of urine, needles everywhere, filthy tents, and drugged up and stoned bums on every block. How do I know? I walked down those streets to see it for myself.

Additionally, Sanctuary Cities won’t prosecute criminals so I witnessed a 30 second “Smash and Grab” of a BMW car. They stopped their car, smashed the back windows and the driver-side window, and within 30 seconds, they stole a purse, camera and three suitcases and vanished into traffic.

To show you how bad it is in Sanctuary Cities, Los Angeles “tents” 175,000 homeless illegals and legal immigrants along with a bunch of drunk or stoned Americans. It’s ugly to walk among them. They constitute of collection of America’s loss of the rule of law. They constitute the growing third world conditions within our own country. They constitute a breakdown in the civility of humanity.

And, Biden keeps pouring them across our borders, and he’s doing everything he can to thwart Trump’s attempts to build a border wall, and to engage ICE.

What’s happening in our major cities with all these illegal aliens now numbering over 30 million? Answer: a total breakdown in our civilization. At some point, if their numbers continue growing in America, we will not be able to maintain law and order. There will be a tipping point where there are no solutions. That tipping point has already been reached in LA, San Francisco, New York City, Detroit, Seattle, Atlanta and more cities that aid and abet illegal aliens.

The question that we should ask ourselves, “How many Laken Riley’s that die at the hands of illegal foreigners does it take to finally convince Washington DC Congressional Critters that we Americans deserve to live in our country with law and order, secure borders, and safety within our communities?”

It’s obvious that the people commanding Joe Biden could care less about America’s sovereignty. They could care less how many of us are murdered or raped. They don’t care about the massive costs to us as to shoplifting.

But the real killer with Sanctuary Cities stands out as Islamic Jihadists who work at creating another 9/11. How many of us will die at their hands? You must understand that religious zealots will stop at nothing to kill as many Americans as possible. Just think of that nut case Luigi Mangione who point blank executed Brian Thompson the CEO of United Healthcare. His blind hatred caused a complete loss of sanity to shoot Thompson in the back. Thompson is dead and his family suffers a lifetime of devastation. And, Mangione will rot in jail for the rest of his life.

Well, that’s how Islamic Jihadists think. They want to kill as many Americans as possible in order die and enjoy 72 virgins in the afterlife. They are THAT crazy…and they live in our sanctuary cities with total immunity.

This column covers a tiny bit of what Americans face as their leaders deny reality. Biden is flat out incompetent, suffers from dementia, and cannot comprehend what he’s doing, or his handlers are doing, to our country.

What is the answer to Sanctuary Cities? We must demand our Senators and House Reps to outlaw them, once and for all. Those leaders of those cities need to be thrown into jail to get the point across. They can start with my Denver Mayor Johnston. He’s willing to go to jail to protect our 45,000 illegals in the State of Colorado. I’d love to see him sit in a jail for a few years. Whatever it takes, we need to bring law and order to the forefront and deport all illegal aliens. We don’t need them. We don’t want them. We cannot tolerate them. They are ruining our country on multiple levels. Let’s be done with the utter stupidity of Sanctuary Cities.

Answer: a financial nightmare of costing billions if not trillions of dollars to U.S. taxpayers, murders of our citizens, rapes of our innocent women, billions-trillions in cash transfers out of our country, gangs taking up residence in our major cities, MS-13 plying its deadly drugs to our youth, shoplifting gangs, millions of homeless costing us billions of dollars, degradation of our cities with bums injecting meth syringes into their arms, anchor babies, degrading American culture, trashing our educational systems, changing our language…have I missed anything? Oh, we’re $36 trillion in national debt. Our politicians pit half the country against the other half of the country—-instead of democrats and republicans working together for our betterment.

How bad is this national nightmare of four years of Biden’s open borders, violating our U.S. Constitution, and spreading over 15 million illegal aliens across 50 states?

First of all, our absorbing refugees from 180 countries is not doing a single thing to alleviate the world’s problems of 83 million new refugees, net gain annually—-born into this world by third world citizens who lack or won’t use birth control. Whether religion, poverty, or illiteracy, that’s why humanity faces an added 83 million new babies that cannot be fed, watered, educated or housed, annually. Whose fault, is it? The three aforementioned factors tell the sordid tale.

Will it stop, will they stop? The answer is a resounding, NO! World demographers show that humans add another 1.0 billion people to the planet every 12 to 14 years, net gain. So, the line never ends into first world countries. (Unless we gain the gumption to stop mass immigration by stopping it at our borders via our laws). While all Western Countries practice birth control of 2.0 children per woman, the other 4.0 billion humans on the planet, do not.

Therefore, what do “Sanctuary Cities” do to benefit America? Answer: absolutely nothing. They and their leaders, in fact, continue to house criminals, drug gangs, anchor babies, rapists, homeless, illiterate masses, shoplifters, and worse.

According to the Federation of American Immigration Reform, we, the U.S. taxpayers provide $150 billion annually of our money to feed, house, educate, medicate and care for over 30 million illegal migrants who have crashed our shores. (Source: www.fairus.org ; additionally, www.cis.org or Center for Immigration Studies). That’s a lot of cash leaving your wallet to be given to those people who have violated our borders, and arrived with no skills, no education, no language, and only their hands out for welfare.

To give you an example, New York City houses, at last count, 752,000 illegal aliens. One of their hotels, The Roosevelt Hotel, offers 1,300 rooms at $500.00 a night for two people, and $100.00 each for two people for food 24/7. Just do the math! We’re talking billions for people who do not respect our laws and do not belong here. Chicago the same. Los Angeles, San Francisco, Atlanta, Boston, Detroit, Denver—all of those cities, their mayors and governors do not respect their oaths of office or the U.S. Constitution. They swore on the Bible to uphold our laws, and they aren’t abiding by their oaths. Who are they? Governor Newsom of California, Governor Jared Polis of Colorado, Kathy Hochul of New York, Governor Pritzker of Illinois, Governor Walz of Minneapolis, Governor Healy of Massachusetts, and the list grows. The respective mayors of major cities like Denver, Chicago, NYC, LA, San Francisco, and all the rest are legally a bunch of criminals for violating our federal laws.

Which laws are they? Article IV Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution. And, U.S. Code 8, Section 1324. It is illegal to transport, house or employ an illegal alien within the United States of America. Fines range to $2,000.00 per illegal, and up to 5 years in prison. So if you transport, employ or house an illegal, or create a sanctuary city, you are a criminal, yourself. With 30 million illegals in America, we’ve got several million illegal American citizens who are feeding this nightmare.

What do you think it costs us in cash transfers to other countries from all these immigrants? Answer: $800 billion annually is sent back to their home countries from the United States. In 2023, it hit $857 billion because Biden engineered over 15 million more illegals. Understand that most of that money is paid in cash, so it’s not taxed. It also means our own citizens remain on welfare rolls to the tune of 35 million subsisting on EBT cards, food stamps. That’s our money going to their countries, all of it illegally gained. (Source: www.weforum.org) We’re literally being financially bled to death by 55 million foreign born immigrants in our country, and we don’t know what the 30 million illegals are sending back because we can’t track them.

What else do those sanctuary cities do to America? They house the drug cartels that have killed 250,000 of our youth in the past four years. That’s a lot of Americans killed because our government won’t enforce our laws.

You hear that, “America’s immigration system is broken.” FALSE! Biden and Congress won’t enforce our laws that are already on the books. Who is broken? Answer: our career corrupt members of Congress and our Alzheimer’s victim Joe Biden. That’s where our system suffers “broken.” You could pass any and all laws for immigration reform, but if you don’t enforce the laws, any new system would be “broken” also. Meanwhile, we keep letting 4.0 million immigrants into the country annually.

What about our classrooms? Question: how do your own children enjoy a viable education in a classroom with 20-50 different languages? Answer: your kids are cheated out of a reasonable education because the teacher must always teach down to the lowest common denominator. How do I know? I taught in the inner city for two years. Our teachers across America are poorly paid, overworked, and given an impossible task to teach all the millions of kids from illegal and legal refugees.

What about those “anchor babies” that arrive at 300,000 annually according to www.CIS.org ? An illegal alien pregnant mother comes over here, drops her baby in our hospital, and you pay the bills. You pay about $8,000 per birth. Then, K-12, you pay about $9,000.00 annually for its education. You pay for its breakfast and lunch at around $10.00 per meal X’s 18 years. You pay for the mother’s Section 8 housing.

Anyone wondering why we’re $36 trillion in national debt?

I want to scream or cry as I research what our idiot “Sanctuary City” mayors and governors are doing to us. It’s a fact that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, New York Governor Kathy Hochul, and Mayor Nick Adams directly are responsible for killing Laken Riley by an illegal Jose’ Ibarra whom they set free after he was arrested in their jurisdiction. But Laken Riley is one of thousands of women raped or beaten by illegal aliens. We’re just not hearing it on the mainstream news. People like Norah O’Donnell, David Muir and Lester Holt, Scott Simon, Terry Gross (NPR) and 60 Minutes make sure you don’t hear about the underbelly of illegal alien migration.

And, it’s going to get much worse!

Coming Part 2: More underbelly of Sanctuary Cities usurping America’s laws, and we pay for it.

One of my dearest friends, Fred Elbel and I enjoy lunch together in Golden, Colorado often. We discuss what’s happening to America. We collaborate our observations while we come up with ideas in order to educate Americans.

In the past week, the Iowa basketball phenomenon Caitlin Clark enjoyed being nominated for “Athlete of the Year” for Time Magazine. Unfortunately, in the interview, she mentioned that the Women’s National Basketball Association, which is 95 percent African-American, hasn’t been watched to any great extent until she became its most popular player after years of “nobody noticed” the all women’s league. Why? Because it was pretty boring!

To give you an idea of her talents, she became the highest scoring college player in American history. She outgunned Pistol Pete Maravich, Michael Jordan and Larry Bird while playing in the college ranks. In other words, she’s an extraordinary athlete who singlehandedly raised the WNBA from its obscurity, to a new level of national prominence.

Unfortunately, during the interview, the “Woke” madness urged her to admit that she enjoyed “white privilege” for the reason she has become SO prominent. In reality, her presence on the court caused the other players to literally beat her up during each game with shoulder shoves, smashed her from behind, knocked her silly and did everything to hurt her. It got to be an obvious “Black basket players matter” more than a superstar white player.

My fellow journalist Fred Elbel said it like this, “Jean Raspail wrote in 1973 a masterpiece, entitled Le Camp des Saints (The Camp of The Saints). Greg Johnson wrote a wonderful review of the novel, Counter-Currents, 29 November 2024.

Johnson writes that “The Camp of the Saints is a beautifully written book, filled with aphoristic turns of phrase worthy of Nietzsche. The narrative is gripping. The characters are vividly drawn and feel real.”

He continues, noting that “The Camp of the Saints is obviously a dystopian novel. The purpose of every dystopian novel is to be wrong.”

Regrettably, it wasn’t wrong. Johnson observes that, at the age of 94, with the gnawing feeling that he had been right. The Camp of the Saints was written as a prophecy, but with each passing year, it reads more like the daily news.”

If you look at what’s happening to all of Europe, you’re seeing the destruction of Western Culture and Society. Whether it was Tesla’s brilliant mind, or the Western inventor of the toilet and shower that brought hygiene to everyone’s house, or Madam Curie’s understanding of germs—-the Western World and its culture fostered brilliant minds that brought humanity into greater understanding of this world.

But if you look at what’s happening to America and Europe, along with Canada, you’re seeing The Camp of the Saints playing out in ever uglier ways.

Daniel Penny’s actions brought him to court, but he was acquitted of all crimes, yet African-American U.S. House members are addressing “Dear White People” in their blogs, because its whites’ fault for the death of that drugged-up maniac Neely on the New York subway.

Then you see a radicalized kid out of the University of Pennsylvania killing a United Healthcare CEO because capitalism needs to be replaced by Utopian Socialism. So, just kill someone in cold blood rather than work through the system.

For the life of men, you’ve got a mental midget named Joy Reid at MSNBC condemning all of America for being “white” and guilty of the “crime of whiteness.” Ironically, it’s white executives that pay her over $1.2 million a year to blather into a TV camera.

TV commentary Rachel Maddox can’t stand half of America, either. She seriously needs therapy of some kind.

Back to the book: Writer Greg Johnson said, “The Camp of the Saints also belongs to another genre: the murder mystery. The victim is the white race. But Raspail leaves it to us to unravel the identity of the killers and figure out how the crime was committed. If we can do so, maybe we can halt the same crime that is happening to our race today.

“For it is the White race who inherit and are obligated to preserve the Western Civilization built by their ancestors, and who in Raspail’s novel – and in today’s Europe – fail to defend their civilization against destruction.

“In the novel, a million starving Indians embark on a voyage to invade Europe, ultimately targeting France.”

When the fleet approached the French coast, trust in the system evaporated, and millions fled. While their lips paid homage to universal brotherhood, their feet carried them to safety. All of them asked, “Why won’t other people take a stand to protect our lives and property and civilization itself – and, of course, allow the Left to martyr them for doing the right thing?”…

Once the fleet landed and France descended into chaos, the government was overthrown by a Leftist junta. The new government then used the French military to suppress the resistance of the native French. France was finished as a white society. It became legal to rob Frenchmen and to rape French women.

Johnson continued, “If whites do not find the will to stem the tide, future historians, no doubt Chinese, will debate why the white race allowed itself to be extinguished. Throughout the book, Raspail invites us to consider different explanations…

“Why are we hated to the point of genocide? It is complicated, but whites are not just hated for our crimes, real and imagined, but also for our virtues. The beauty of our race and our creations; the power of our science, technologies, and armies; our wealthy, free, and orderly societies: all of these inevitably stir feelings of resentment and envy, the desire to take what we have – or, barring that, to make us lose it.”

Are you seeing any parallels in America, Canada and Europe in 2024 and beyond. Joe Biden engineered the largest third world invasion in human history in just four short years. He tried his best to “kill America.” How do you think that’s going to work out?

Johnson called the spiritual weakness that enables White genocide “white guilt,” noting that “White guilt means that whites are somehow responsible for the suffering of non-whites all over the world.”

As in Raspail’s novel, today’s invasion is facilitated by leftist minority. Johnson asks how the Left gained so much power, observing that:

“The Right foolishly allowed the left to take over religious, cultural, and educational institutions as platforms to preach white guilt. To the Right, such ideas seemed at best high-minded and impracticable, at worst stupid, crazy, and evil. But never for a minute did they take them seriously and think that they might matter someday.”

At this point, hopefully, Donald J. Trump stops the invasion, kicks out the invaders, and restores America to law and order. Because if he doesn’t, some historian will scratch his or her head and beg the question, “Why did America allow itself to be invaded, destroyed and tossed onto the rock pile of history?”

For damned certain, people like Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Reid are not going to lead America to the promised land.

To Caitlin Clark, I say, “Stand proud that you’re the top “Athlete of the Year” in Time Magazine, and be proud of your talents, skills, hard work, and Western Heritage.

Every day you turn on the news, something even crazier than yesterday appears on your television, or broadcasts on your radio, or flashes across your computer screen.  The dichotomies and insanities keep mounting and multiplying at breakneck speed.

As in the kid who shot, in cold blood, United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson!  He stalked him, shot him in the back, and walked away.  He killed a husband, father and friend.  He caused incredible grief to the entire Thompson family.  Now, those two kids grow up without a father.  I know the feeling as I lost my dad in my teen years.  His loss totally upended my life, really, for all of my life.  I’ve never been the same since my dad’s death.  That “moment in time” never leaves me.  But then, you’ve got people on social media cheering that father’s death. NUTS!

Not only that, but that kid’s life will vanish into a jail cell or an injection of a needle.  That kid destroyed his life. It’s completely insane.

Then, you look at that Jose’ Ibarra beating to death Laken Riley!  He destroyed her life, her family, and her friends.  And, he’s in jail for the rest of his life.  For what? Just because she wouldn’t surrender to him for sex?  So, he bashed her head to pieces.  It’s absolutely nuts!

When that dirtbag felon of a human being, George Floyd, died in Minneapolis, he caused a national riot of $2 billion in damages, and many deaths, but Kamala Harris provided bail money for all the arsonists, looters and terrorists.  Floyd more than likely died from ingesting fentanyl before he got arrested for passing counterfeit bills.  He began as a carjacker at the age of 16, but continued as a thief, porn star, woman abuser, felon and all around God-forsaken criminal.  Yet, they are naming schools after him.  Then, Kamala Harris, who supported the $2 billion in property damage, said that the riots should continue.  Ironically, she became vice president of the United States.  Is that NUTS or what?

Talk about dichotomies, we elected, or it appeared we elected forever politician Joe Biden into the White House, only to watch him destroy our country by inviting, engineering and forcing over 15 million illegal aliens into our country.  Biden along with New York Governor Hochul caused the death of Laken Riley.  That’s a fact!  Yet, they didn’t/don’t give a damn.  The illegals continue pouring over our borders, daily, by the tens of thousands, by the hundreds of thousands.  Is that not absolutely, incredibly insane?!

Here’s another insanity:

After the fiasco of 1965 Immigration Reform Act that dumped over 140 million legal immigrants onto our country, Congress passed another bill in 1990 that increased the flow of foreigners to displace American citizens by the hundreds of thousands.  That bill caused the distribution of $500 billion annually from American workers to the investment people on the Stock Exchange. To hell with American citizens and their families.  In other words, our own elected Congressional Critters screwed all of us out of jobs, solid incomes, and in the process, sewed incredible cultural conflict that accelerates today.  It’s a fact that our elected officials put all legal and illegal migrants FIRST and American citizens, LAST!

Now, the mainstream media has brought all sorts of bogus charges against Pete Hegseth to stop him from reforming the Department of Defense.  Instead of a decorated U.S. Army veteran, you’ve read that he is a horrible person.  Just like the Russia Hoax that Trump suffered, the “Deep State” doesn’t want anyone to stop it from its power over America and the American people.  As if all those “dudes” in the Deep State aren’t part of the Epstein Island sex parties.  Notice how the mainstream media buries any of the stories they don’t want the American people to read about.

What about that “WOKE” crap being forced down the throats of our American soldiers.  We don’t want our Marine and Army killers wearing dresses and earrings.  We want men to get into the field to kill the enemy.  The fact is, when you get around “transgender individuals”, you get a really icky feeling all over your body and mind.  It’s a biological “ickiness” that a straight male cannot shake.   Along with that kind of craziness within our military ranks, you’ve got Secretary Austin promoting CRT within the military.  It’s beyond insane to teach such insanity within the military, but that’s what’s happening.  If that continues, our men and women in uniform won’t be able to coordinate their military skills to fight their way out of a paper bag.

What about the insanity of “Defund the police”? How much more crime can we accept?  How would you like to live in San Francisco where it’s totally and completely nuts with 50,000 homeless drunks, mentally ill, drug addicts and bums subsisting on the streets because the mayor and city council ALLOW IT!  In other words, no standards of decency or law and order!  Just turn the city into a third world “sh*thole.”   I’ve seen it firsthand; that’s what it is and it is sickening.  And California Governor Newsom is lining up to run for the U.S. presidency in four years?!  How insane and totally crazy would our country become with him in the White House?  He harbors and protects over 4.0 million illegal aliens in his state. He’s about to spend millions to protect them from Trump.  It’s so nuts, that you can’t make this stuff up.

How about the insanity of 250,000 drug overdose deaths from fentanyl that was invited over our borders by Biden in the past four years?  Joe Biden stands as the number one drug distributor in America that caused all those deaths.  Why?  Because he caused it, plain and simple.  The man should be impeached for treason.  That’s why Bill O’Reilly, in his book, Confronting the Presidents: Washington to Biden, stated that Joe Biden is the second to worst president in the history of 46 presidents.

Plenty more dichotomies continue in the United States.  We spent $6 trillion in Afghanistan, Iraq and beyond.  We imported the world’s mentally ill, criminals, gangs and worse.  Biden turned Springfield, Ohio into a daily nightmare. Biden turned NYC into a nightmare. We’ve got Chicago residents ready to put their mayor in jail for his part in this entire stupid “Sanctuary City” nightmare.

What does all this confusion, chaos, dichotomies, transgenders, woke-ism, Muslims chanting “Death to America”, killings, massive drug use, Sanctuary Cities, $36 trillion national debt, mass and endless immigration out of the third world, infrastructure crumbling, killing a CEO walking on a city street—-all boil down to?

It’s almost like we’re a nation committing national suicide.

Colorado Governor Lamb said in 2003, “We must first make America a bilingual-bicultural country.  History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. One scholar, Seymour Martin Lipset put it this way, ‘The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy. Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon—-all face rises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy if not independence.  Pakistan and Cyprus divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with its Muslims, Basques, Bretons and Corsicans.”

Arnold Toynbee observed that all great nations rise and fall. But it’s their method of demise that creates an intriguing point. He said, “An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.”

America is well on along that path.

At some point in the course of human events, it becomes necessary to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God.

After a lifetime of living on the public taxpayer’s dole, sniffing little girls’ hair, inappropriately groping women, and not wanting his children to attend integrated schools because he didn’t want his children in the “jungle of inner-city education,” Joe Biden’s Karma returned with a vengeance in the past week.

After this entire year of telling reporters that he would not pardon his son Hunter Biden who is a perverted, drug addicted son—-old Joe didn’t pardon him for one act of crime, but 10 years and 11 months of crimes.  Joe Biden will have to pardon his brother Jim, too, because the “Biden Family Crime Syndicate” stands eyeball deep in defrauding the American people.

Whether it was the Burisma Oil Company in Ukraine paying Hunter Biden millions because of his father’s influence to do nothing, or blackmailing kingpins in the Middle East to pay his family millions because his father was “The Big Guy” calling the shots, we’re talking a lifetime of fraudulent behavior that make Al Capone and the Corleone family of the “Godfather” blush.

In Bill O’Reilly’s latest book, Confronting the Presidents, Washington to Biden, he dissects our 46 presidents from Washington to Biden.  O’Reilly ranked Washington and Lincoln at the top.  He ranked Biden second worst president in U.S. history.  O’Reilly chronicled the facts of Biden’s four years in office.  He showed how Biden’s incompetence engineered an invasion of America’s southern border at an incredible 15 to as high as 21 million illegal aliens from 180 plus countries.  Biden opened our doors to the largest invasion of any single country in the history of the world.  Biden invited terrorists, rapists, mentally ill, career criminals, drug cartels, killers, and gangs.

One of his dumbest acts must be his support of biological men competing unfairly against women in all sports.  He ruined countless women’s athletic lives.

As to open borders, those drug gangs he let loose on our borders killed 250,000 American youth.  Those rapists raped and killed American women without mercy.  Think Laken Riley at the University of Georgia.  Think of all the drunk illegal drivers who killed pedestrians and American citizens in their cars. Think of the next terrorist attack that you know will kill more Americans.  That’s all on Biden and his sidekick Kamala.

Think of the $150 billion, we, the American taxpayers paid out annually for the past four years, to house, feed and educate those 21 million illegal aliens.  Even the people of Chicago’s sanctuary city cried out about paying $500 million for illegals.  New York City sinks into financial crisis because of its sanctuary city that cares for 756,000 illegal aliens.

Joe Biden put illegal aliens first and American citizens, LAST!  He put every victim of Hurricane Helene and Milton into tents and trailers while he put every illegal alien up at plush facilities like the Roosevelt Hotel in NYC, and top hotels in Chicago, Los Angeles, Denver, Miami, San Francisco, and Seattle.  The backlash hit all of them on November 5th, 2024.

The British philosopher Lord Acton said, “Power corrupts; and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

That quote holds true with Vladimir Putin in Russia, Kim Jung Ung in North Korea, Che-Ping in China, Madura in Columbia, and list runs the gamut as to Mussolini, Mao, Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, et al.

Even with our incredible U.S. Constitution, Joe Biden has been a corrupt politician for five decades plus.  It’s almost incredible what he has pulled off.  All for money!

But what remains astounding about all this scenario stems from the fact that everyone, i.e., his wife, his brothers, his friends, his cabinet, Kamala, the mainstream press,  “knew” that Joe Biden suffered from Alzheimer’s Disease four years ago.  And, now, it’s full blown.  And yet, the quest for power, especially Jill Biden’s quest for power, would not let her reveal that her husband suffered from Alzheimer’s Disease. So, she forced him to run for a second term.  Let’s face it, the man is a walking cadaver.  He doesn’t know what day it is or what direction to walk.  His calling card is to stick out his hand to shake the air.  The fact remains: after January 21, 2025, doctors will reveal that he’s suffered from dementia for the past five years or longer.  Oh, what a surprise!

Never mind his sordid past sniffing little girls’ hair or groping women at social events, or just plain lying so much that he doesn’t know the truth from his lies.  He can’t keep up with how to cover them.  With Joe’s dementia in full swing, Kamala will go down in history as an accomplice to presidential malfeasance.

In the end, the TRUTH will transcend all the lies.

Thankfully, as the famous Will Rogers said, “This Constitution; good men can’t make it better; and bad men can’t make it worse. It will meander down through time to protect the average man/woman in America.”

As for this journalist, I watched the invasion at our southern border for the last 24 years.  My book, Immigration’s Unarmed Invasion: Deadly Consequences, published in 2004 described exactly what’s happening today. The “Eight Ways to Destroy America” in that book makes for sobering reading.  It should have become a New York Times bestseller.  It should have carried me onto 60 Minutes, Meet the Press, Face the Nation, NPR’s Terry Gross, PBS, Diane Sawyer, Lester Holt, and every talk show in America.  Instead, all of them ignored it.

Those 15 million plus illegals and their birthrates are going to cost America greater consequences in the coming years.  In fact, all immigration will drive us toward adding 100 million more people, net gain, by 2050, that cannot be sustained.  We face a “Faustian Bargain” with a “Hobson’s Choice” ending. The drugs will cost tens of thousands of kids their lives in the coming years.  The terrorists yet to unleash their horrors on us will take American lives. Busting up our American culture will be much like the devastation of Katrina, Helene and Milton combined.

In the end, we might all feel sorry for Joe Biden.  The greed, the lies, the perversions, the incompetence, and worst of all his Alzheimer’s Disease. There’s nothing cruller than Alzheimer’s to end one’s life.

Bill O’Reilly placed Joe Biden at second to the bottom of the worst presidents in U.S. history.  Biden’s legacy cost all of us.

Six days a week, this kid swims a half mile at my recreation center to keep in top shape. Afterwords, I sit in the hot tub to meditate and pray for my wife’s health.  In all my meditations and prayers, I pray for world peace in Ukraine, Iran, Lebanon, Israel, and Gaza.  I pray for health in AIDES-torn Africa.  I pray for food for the 3.1 million children who starve to death annually around the world.

“Poor nutrition and hunger is responsible for the death of 3.1 million children a year. That’s nearly half of all deaths in children under the age of 5. The children die because their bodies lack basic nutrients. A child dies every 10 seconds from starvation. Globally, 822 million people suffer from undernourishment.”  (Source: www.theworldcounts.com )

As to adults, over 9.2 million starve to death annually worldwide.

“Around 9 million people die every year of hunger and hunger-related diseases. This is more than from AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined.”  (Source: www.theworldcounts.com)

With those horrific numbers of people starving to death, we see madmen in Iran and Russia waging wars on innocent people of every walk of life.  We watch Islamic Hamas terrorists along with Muslim Iranian terrorists committing every kind of inhumane atrocities known to humanity.

Sep 17, 2024 — “A confidential Ukrainian estimate from earlier this year put the number of dead Ukrainian troops at 80,000 and the wounded at 400,000,” according to a Wall Street Journal report.  At least that many have died on the Russian side of the equation.

Over 35,000 have been killed in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.

You can’t help but wonder exactly what drives human beings and/or their leaders to commit to so much killing of other human beings.  It’s been reported that humans spend $1,000,000.00 a minute 24/7 to maintain armies for either offense or defense.

Can you imagine if all those costs of killing one another were changed to feeding, clothing, and housing all those humans that die of starvation annually?  Wouldn’t common sense drive humanity to care for its 8.1 billion individuals on this planet?  Feed them?

What about the 170 trillion pieces of plastic now floating or sunken into the depths of earth’s oceans? (Source: www.npr.org)   What about the 100 million sharks killed annually for their fins or the sport of it?  What about the 84,000 chemicals dumped into the oceans annually by the tons?  What about earth’s reefs dying at an astounding rate of speed?  Anyone eating fish from our oceans also consumes that broken down (oil) plastic within the fish tissue and chemicals drained into the oceans as our final toilet. Wouldn’t common sense tell world leaders that we humans need to change course to preserve our wondrous planet that is our home?

Today in America, only seven states offer a deposit-return law for all their plastic, metal, and glass containers.  Forty-three states couldn’t care less!  Why wouldn’t a first world nation like the United States implement a 50-cent deposit-return law on all plastic, glass, and metal containers to ensure a 99 percent return to stop the trashing of the planet?  How hard can it be to honor our planet home by maintaining a level of decency and respect for our wilderness?

At this date, “social media” via cell phones has corrupted millions of our children into drugs, pornography and video death games that do nothing to bring our children up to be contributing and responsible adults. Those phones are “rewiring” our children’s minds to be anti-social, unable to communicate in person, and creating perversions beyond our understanding. Why are parents allowing their children, and buying their children those cell phones that take up their time of four to eight hours daily? Several states have passed laws to stop kids from using social media until they reach 16 years of age.  That’s a start!

After I swim, I hit the weight room. Virtually every teenager in the weight room carries a cell phone, and, they hog the machines while tapping away, with no regard that the rest of us would like to push those weights.

Then, you read about 250,000 drug overdose deaths caused by heroin, fentanyl, cocaine, et. al., in the past three years.  Why would the president and vice president of the United States allow such a horrific number of deaths that were easily preventable by simply closing down the drug trade at our borders?  Why not make the crime of drug trafficking punishable by life in prison for anyone caught?  Aren’t our children worth it?  Wasn’t Laken Riley and thousands of other young women who have been raped and/or killed worth it?  Answer: apparently not.

Today, we house more than 30 million illegal aliens in our country. They have broken our laws, dramatically, and in horrific numbers. Yet, our own president and vice president, along with our U.S. Congress, engineered this invasion. The big question is: WHY?  Wouldn’t it make sense, in order to maintain a stable and sustainable civilization, that we stop this invasion, and repatriate all those people back to their own countries?  How about they fix or repair or fight for their own countries?

Why are our major cities harboring all those illegal aliens with our tax dollars?  Is there any common sense to “Sanctuary Cities?”  It’s costing us billions in housing, food, medical and crime—but we have state governors-mayors-citizens protecting illegals. The best line I heard this week was my Denver Mayor Mike Johnston. “I am willing to go to jail to protect our undocumented immigrants.”   Incoming DHS/ICE director Tom Holman said, “If Johnston is willing to go to jail for breaking the law, I will put him in jail.”

What about the fact that our war-making machine, The Pentagon, with an $833 billion annual budget has failed the last seven audits, and that billions, if not trillions of dollars have been squandered-siphoned-ripped-off by the Military Industrial Complex corporate heads?

Few Americans realize that an average of 20,000 Americans are murdered in America annually.  They get shot, stabbed or cut to pieces.  Why is that going on in a free country?

Yes, it’s all those little questions that need answering.

What about biological men, pretending to be women, pushing, smashing and shoving their way into women’s athletics?  Who thought THAT mental-emotional insanity deserved a seat at the American athletic table?  Haven’t women been shoved to the back seat or the back of the bus throughout most of recorded history?  Why would we allow such stupidities in 21st century America?  Transgender male athletes in women’s sports will prove the most inane, insane, stupid, moronic, and idiotic era of American sports.

And now, this artificial intelligence. It could be used for “good”, but can you imagine what it’s going to be like when it’s in the hands of “bad” people?  We’re in for a nasty ride with AI.

It’s been said that humans prove themselves the most intelligent species on this planet.  When you look at our long, bloody history, which continues today, it’s safe to say we humans are not that intellectually balanced.  We lack common sense.  We lack actions that would benefit our planet, all living creatures and ourselves.

In 2025, perhaps we might choose a more enlightened path toward the future.  All it takes is: common sense.

November 29, 2024

During this Thanksgiving week, let’s take a rest from the grief and tribulations of the world.  Let’s plan on exploring to somewhere new, somewhere else, somewhere to the edge of the map.  Someone once said, “The best road is the one that leads to the horizon.”

Some pedal for emotional peace.  Others pedal for exercise. Still others pedal for the “high” it brings to every cell in their bodies.  Many pedal for friendship in a group ride.  A few find spiritual bliss…well, make that “many” find spiritual harmony. Others pedal for the competition to see who can burn up their thighs in the process of going for more speed.  As you age, you pedal to relax while you pedal around the neighborhood hoping to stop and talk with someone.  It’s a mix of emotions on your bicycle from that first ride at the age of seven until that last ride at the age of seventy…or maybe eighty.

But some men and women possess a need to “Pedal to the Edge of the Map.”   You read about them cranking their bikes all over the globe.  Why? What makes them do it?  How can they survive those tenuous miles across the Outback of Australia or the endless sand of the Atacama Desert in South America?  What makes them want to ride up to the Wall of China or visit the Taj Mahal.  What would drive a man like Robert Fletcher at the age of 80 to ride from Alaska to Panama City in 2022 (BTW, he just made it December 12, 2022)?  Or, Heinz Stucke to ride around the planet his entire life?

After 50 years of chasing toward the “edge of the map”, I think I’ve discovered what drove Amundsen, Shackleton, Amelia Earhart, Bird, Leif Erickson, Lewis & Clark, John Muir, Jack London, Nellie Bly, Jane Goodall,  Harriet Adams, Heinz Stucke, Gertrude Bell, Sarah Marquis, Thomas Stevens, and many more.

Heinz Stucke has pedaled over 600,000 kilometers in 60 years of bicycle travel.  How do you wrap your arms around that?

When I finished college, I made a promise to myself that I would pedal all seven continents and as many countries as possible.  I hadn’t heard of Stucke.   Why did I make such a preposterous commitment?  At the time, I didn’t understand what I was telling myself.  But “myself” kept speaking to me somewhere in my gut, or maybe in the deeper recesses of my creative mind.

Whatever that “myself” was saying to me, I simply answered the call.  I made plans to ride coast to coast across America.  Of course no one would go with me.  “You are out of your mind,” several friends told me.

I’m sure they said that to Columbus, Shackleton, Amundsen, Scott, Captain Cook, Amelia Earhart, Nellie Bly, Jane Goodall, and all the rest.  Well, screw them!  Some of us dance to the beat of a different drummer. Some of us hear something in the wind.  Others of us decide that we want as much out of life as we can stuff into our 80 years of living.  What separates those who quest versus those who sit and watch?  Action! Perseverance! Guts! Gumption! True Grit!

And finally, creative living with a certain gusto!

Once I pushed off the Pacific Ocean in 1975, with a fully loaded touring bike…and not knowing what the hell I was doing…I just kept pedaling.  Once I got out onto the Mojave Desert of California, the road stretched to the horizon.  I followed it.  I drank a lot of water. I devoured gobs of food.

What did I notice?  The horizon pulled me toward it. It beckoned with sunrises that stunned me.  Those mountain peaks tugged at my heart-strings.  The breezes whispered in my ears.  That heat caused me to sweat whether in Death Valley or the Atacama Desert or the Outback.

Was it miserable?  You bet it’s miserable in 120 degrees F. heat with bush-flies trying to eat you alive in the Outback. Just cooks you in the saddle and the flies rattle your brain.  Was it wet in the Amazon?  Gees, four hours of rain every day…mildewed my gear…sweated me to death…and the bugs…oh my God the bugs. How do you survive 1,000 miles of nothing but sand in South America in the Atacama Desert, the driest in the world.?   And yet, the edge of the map pulled me through.

Yes,  that’s where the edge of the map really tests your resolve.  Do you really want to get to the edge of the map?

For those of us that feel the “tug of adventure” in our guts, that “edge” brings some pretty amazing moments.

To this day, I remember the West Coast of Australia where I stopped at the Pinnacles of Cervantes, north of Perth.  I had to grind it out on a sand road to reach those giant sand pillars near the ocean.  In the morning, I woke up with sand in my tent, but as I packed, a mother kangaroo and her little roo jumped out of the bush, up a ridge and vanished into the dunes.  Mother Nature knows how to entertain a long-distance touring cyclist. Later, I made it to the Pinnacles to see one of the strangest sights on that circumnavigation of Australia.  How did Nature form them?  Why? What purpose?  Walking among those natural skyscrapers was like walking through downtown New York City.

Later, I rode up on Monkey Mia Beach where I discovered some people playing with dolphins racing around in the water. The Aussies invited me to play with the dolphins, too. I jumped into their play-pin to catch a ride on their dorsal fins.  I was literally dancing in the water with wild Indian Ocean dolphins.  How’s that for pedaling to the edge of the map?

Do you remember Jurassic Park I ?   Remember that frilled lizard that surprised the escaping fat boy who stole the embryos of dinosaurs?  At first the lizard looked innocent enough, until he “frilled” his fan to scare the living crap out of that bad guy.  Well, in Northern Australia, I awoke one morning,  looked out of my tent to see a lizard looking right at me.  When I moved, he “frilled” his red fan that scared the crap out of me.  Thankfully, he wasn’t big enough to eat me like in the Jurassic Park movie.  But I’ll tell you this, that moment remains in my mind for the  rest of my days.  Talk about pedaling to the edge of the map!

In the end, what’s your “edge of the map?”   Are you pedaling toward it?  Do you possess the same “guts” or “determination” associated with Jack London, Amelia Earhart or Thomas Stevens (the first man to bicycle around the world, and he did it on a Penny Farthing High Wheeler 1884 to 1886.)?

I can say this: it’s not a foreign country or those “moments” in wild places that tingle your senses, enthrall your heart or scare the living hell out of you. It could be a ride across your own state or across your entire country.   You will have countless “amazing” moments in the USA as you will have on all the other continents.  It’s that amazing formulation of the creative yearning that dwells in every cell of your body while you’re alive on this planet. Some heed it, most don’t.

If you heed it, you may equal anything Amelia Earhart, Jack London, John Muir, Nellie Bly or any of the rest of those famous people accomplished.  The road awaits you for your journey to the “Edge of the Map.”

“Optimism is a strategy for making a better future.  Because unless you believe that the future can be better, it’s unlikely you will step up and take responsibility for making it so.  If you assume that there’s no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope.  If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, that there are opportunities to change things, there is a chance you may contribute to making a better world.  The choice is yours.”  Noam Chomsky

Every human being on this planet wakes up each day with choices.  At least in free countries, that person enjoys opportunities in the realm of work, play, friends, and attitude.  Perhaps, “attitude” may be the most powerful entity of those choices.

As of this Thanksgiving week leading to Christmas and on to the New Years, let’s explore the miracles of being alive.  Most of us wake up with sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell.  Each one of those five senses allows you to enjoy incredible things such as “sight”, like a sunrise, sunset, campfire under a starlit sky, seeing your loved ones and navigating through this world with your vision.

“Hearing” allows you to listen to your spouse, friends, or kids. Maybe a bird chirping!  You may listen to music to start your day. You might find yourself dancing at Grizzly Rose on a Saturday night.  Hearing allows your body to explore movement and physical, if not spiritual expression.

“Touch” may be that magic of holding your lover’s hand or guiding your kids down a water slide.  You protect them by holding them in your arms.  Touch offers such incredible feelings of being alive.  A kiss of your lips to another’s lips brings such emotion, such joy, such sensation.  To be blessed with the ability to touch—such magic!

Ever “taste” a fresh pizza out of the oven?  What about a savory apple, pear, orange, cherry or gob of grapes?  Ah, that amazing thing called “taste” delights your senses every time you sit down for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.  Tell me you don’t like to bite into a hamburger dressed with lettuce, tomato and cheese!  How about fresh mushroom soup?  What about that Italian pasta primavera? Whether you eat sit down to Chinese, Mexican, Thai, or another dozen ethnic dishes—your taste buds do handsprings with all the flavors of the food cornucopia that touches your life.

Finally, what about the “smell” of coffee in the morning?  Can you beat those scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and jam raging with your nostrils?  “Smell” delights you with its aromas from that freshly cut flowers, that delicious chocolate cake, or a fresh batch of chocolate chip cookies.

Tell me you aren’t living life with “Radical Amazement” with all your senses flourishing throughout your body.

Right now, we face that “Energy Wave” of the holidays racing toward us at breakneck speed.  That big, fat turkey with all the dressings, vegetables, wine, apple pie and ice cream—oh what a delight to your senses.

Some folks get depressed during the holidays. Some get excited.  There’s an old saying by my minister Dr. Michelle Medrano, “When you change the way you look at things; and things you look at, change.”   How about looking at the world with “high expectation?”   How about expanding your mind to enjoy the moment you’re living?

Set your intentions to accentuate your outcome of your personal life or life in general.  Henry Ford said, “If you think you can do it; or you think you can’t do it; you’re right.”

During this “Season of the Heart,” life brings you an opportunity to eat all you can eat. It brings you an opportunity to reconnect with loved ones. It brings you an opportunity for gratitude, inner light, love, and deeper spiritual connection.

The Greek philosopher Aristotle called it, “Entelechy, which means to gift yourself to a higher path.”

Last month, one of my dear friends of 20 years, an amazing mountain climber and cyclist, Rufus Miller, died in a climbing accident. When I heard the news, I dropped to my knees and cried my eyes out.  Last summer, he bicycled with his wife and two girls, from Mexico to Canada.  He was reading my latest book, The Kickstand Chronicles, and we discussed his favorite chapters.  We enjoyed so much friendship. At his memorial, over 300 people cried, hugged and shared their stories of his remarkable life that touched them all.  I was sick to my heart.  And yet, I count my life richer for having known him, biked with him, climbed with him and sparred over the latest book he shared with me.  Sure, his loss brings me to tears.  And yet, his life gifted me to Entelechy, a higher path.

Another man Dr. Michelle Medrano mentioned, suffered blindness.  And yet, he became a photographer.  Ted called himself “The blind photographer with big vision.”  He takes pictures of places like the Golden Gate Bridge, then, raises everything up in the pictures so that when a blind person feels the picture, that person “sees” the photograph, in this case, the Golden Gate Bridge.  Since I’ve bicycled over it six times, I know its secrets, its magic, and its “higher path.”  Ted, the blind photographer shares that magic of the bridge with all who “touch” his photographs.

The bet is, you know other people in your life who have conquered their many challenges. You may be one of them.  You have shared your gifts.

One of the things I do, which Dr. Michelle spoke about, is, I write letters of appreciation and gratitude to people who have touched my life deeply.  I wrote my high school English teacher Nancy Steller, before she died, a letter of profound thanks for inspiring in me, a love of literature and writing.  I wrote a letter to my college sophomore Creative Writing teacher, Beatrice Monaghan, for inspiring me to read Jack London, Emerson, Thoreau, Service, Muir, Jane Goodall, Diane Fossey, Nellie Bly, and other greats of literary history. Each one of them reached out over the decades to add to my life.  My bet is, you too, have photographers like Ansel Adams or painters like Van Gogh or composers like Mozart or philosophers like Socrates who have brought you to “Entelechy.”

One of my greatest employers, Paul Corrigan, of United Van Lines, allowed me to drive, load and work for him.  He’s late in his life. His kids come to visit him in Florida, so he won’t be by himself since his wife Kathleen passed. I sent Paul a half dozen of my books, a three-page letter of appreciation for his part in my world travels.  His daughter wrote me a dear letter where she said her father cried deeply because he was so thankful that one of his drivers celebrated his leadership and his life, along with his wife Kathleen.  That’s another form of “Entelechy.”

During this season, when Christmas arrives, my church offers six candle- light services.  It’s an incredible sight to sit in the back when 1,500 people raise their candles to wish humankind peace, abundance and good will toward all.  We wish the best for our loved ones who have passed. We wish our best to all faiths, all paths to God, and all spiritual energy toward the world.

So, as you move through this next month of Thanksgiving, Christmas parties, and New Years—-give thanks that you enjoy your five senses. Be thankful to live in America, Canada, Europe, New Zealand, Australia, and any other free countries. Be thankful for your health, your family, your worth to yourself and your loved ones.

“Remember when you go into the world to keep your eyes and ears wide open, and be kind.
Love one another.  Take care of each other.  Tell the truth.  Always do your best.
Listen to the big people and the little people.  Explore new paths and have fun.
Know that you are loved like crazy.  Give thanks for all your blessings.
Above all else, love and you will do wonderful things in this world.”   — Rebecca Puig 

Thanks to Dr. Michelle Madrano for her inspiring this essay about “Living Life in Radical Amazement.”    God bless you, God bless America, and God bless all of humanity.

Pre-November 5th, while interviewing on the crackpot TV program, “The View”, candidate Kamala Harris found herself with the best question ever asked during her run for the presidency.

“If you had the last four years to do over, what would you do differently?” asked one of the hosts.

Kamala answered, “Nothing comes to mind.”  THAT response became one of the biggest reasons the American people voted Trump into the White House.  It showed that privileged people in high places could care less about what happens to ordinary Americans.

Yesterday, the iconic trial of illegal alien Jose’ Ibarra, who brutally murdered, raped and disfigured nursing student Laken Riley at the University of Georgia—came to a dramatic finish.  That monster received two life sentences without parole for killing Laken Riley.

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris wouldn’t change a thing over the past four years. While Joe Biden doesn’t know what day of the week it is, or what year it is, or where he is—-Kamala was the last person in the room during each decision that got countless Americans raped, killed or robbed. She’s guilty of high crimes and neglect for her roles in those deaths.  Both of them stand responsible for Laken Riley’s death. Both of them stand responsible for the 13 military personnel killed during the withdrawal out of Afghanistan.  Both of them stand guilty of 250,000 American deaths for from drug overdoses that Joe Biden and Kamala caused because of open borders.

Worse, they KNEW they were inviting international criminals, drug cartels, terrorists and worse into our country. They knew that hundreds of thousands of children would be trafficked into America. They KNEW terrorists would converge on America to plan and carry out more 9/11 events, big and small.

We watched the final statements of Laken Riley’s roommates, friends, and family.  Tear-filled, painful recollections of her happy, laughing and runner’s life before Ibarra’s bludgeoning her to death!

Then, you find out that the Governor of New York, Kathy Hochul, and Mayor Adams of New York City—-let Ibarra back onto the streets after he attacked another girl.  That governor and mayor stand by their lawless support of “Sanctuary City and State” to allow criminals to roam free to kill, rob and distribute drugs.  Hochul and Adams should be locked up for their part in Laken Riley’s death.

But then, you travel to Chicago, one of the deadliest cities in America to live in and die from gun shots, and the governor of the state, Pritzker vows to prevent Trump from deporting 50,000 of Pritzker’s illegal aliens out of his “Sanctuary State.”  Who cares how many of those illegal aliens will kill endless numbers of Americans.

In other words, we have leaders like Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, AOC, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Charles Schumer and many more House and Senate members who support crime, criminals, drug dealers and terrorists.  Those leaders stand against our laws and against the American people.

You’ve got WOKE women Congressional critters standing up for a “Transgender” male House member to take a leak in a woman’s bathroom, and to shower with women.  He’s pathetic and the people who support his mental illness are doubly sickening.

We’re talking about some really pathetic people voted into office who do not and will not abide by our Constitution.  AOC needs to be returned to bartending, or better yet, cleaning toilets.  Omar needs to be deported back to Somalia.  Rashida Tlaib needs to go back to Palestine.  Maxine Waters needs to repeat the sixth grade.  House Member Hank Johnson (D-GA) needs to return to the third grade because he didn’t pass geography or science.  Charles Schumer needs to retire to an assisted living home right next door to Joe Biden’s room.  Those people prove themselves calcified fossils.

Let’s face it; somebody besides Joe Biden has directed this country for the past four years.  It sure as hell isn’t dementia-ridden Joe Biden.  Whomever writes his speeches controls our country.  That person, or persons, engineered opening our borders to over 15 million illegal aliens.  Their intent remains clear: to destabilize America, to see terrorism manifest, to break our civilization into ethnic enclaves, and to totally bankrupt us.  Not to mention, poison our citizens with endless overdose deaths and addictions.

Thus, for Kamala Harris to pretend that she deserves anything more than disdain from Laken Riley’s family, and residents from all the cities and towns like Springfield, Ohio, and all the military families who lost loved ones—Kamala should examine herself, find incredible incompetence and escape back to Jamaica or India.  We certainly do not want her in America.

You’ve heard of the Military Industrial Complex in the good ole United States of America.  They’ve been creating and controlling America’s wars since 1945.  They oversaw the useless Korean War, they extended the Vietnam War for 10 years,  they supported and maintained Desert Storm, Afghanistan, and Iraq Wars for 20 years.  They burned through over $10 trillion American taxpayer dollars—-all for nothing—-except for their own bank accounts.  As WWI General Smedley Butler said, “War is a racket.”  It’s a BIG racket.

Those bunch of corporate heads didn’t/don’t care about American soldiers.  They may be defined as a bunch of corporation heads of war making machines such as jets, bombs, bullets, tanks, Jeeps and anything that furthers war.  They own companies that make textiles, foods for soldiers, and just about everything that supports wars.

In the past 50 years, we find a new “complex” known as the “Food Industrial Complex.”  It feeds the American public every kind of chemicalized, artificial, and deadly food known to humanity.  Many food scientists state that, “Of the 60,000 food choices at a super market, about 50,000 offer every kind of artificial coloring, preservatives, harmful additives, massive doses of sugar, high fructose corn syrup, GMO’s, pesticides, insecticides, glyphosates, Roundup Ready crops, and factory farmed animals that eat GMO’s and live on dung piles their entire lives.”

The average cow and chicken are fed or injected with nine chemicals to make them fatter, grow faster and also withstand the chemical assaults on their bodies.  If Americans witnessed a Montford cattle yard, and how horrible those animals live, they would puke.  If they saw the inhumanity to chickens, pigs or turkeys, they would vomit emotionally and physically.

Nothing remains “humane” in our country with 350 million mouths to feeds 24/7.

Fast food companies’ food explodes with additives like MSG, which is an “excito toxin” that makes you hungry for another burger, more fries and deadly soda pop.  You like sweets?  You’re addicted to them from your first Gerber Baby Food sugar additives, to every candy bar at the checkout counter. Have you examined the sugar and dyes in Frosted Flakes, Fruit Loops, and just about every cereal offered in the grocery store?  “Sugar” goes by more than 30 other names.  It’s in everything!  We Americans are addicted to the point of over 80 pounds for each of us annually.

And, those companies show no mercy.  The soda pop companies hook you on sugar and caffeine.  Then, to make you thinner, they offer “diet” soda which features synthetic sugars such as “aspartame and Sucralose” that are so foreign to your body, that your blood stores them in your fat cells with no way to get rid of them.  Endless millions of Americans are addicted to Coke, Pepsi, Mt. Dew, RC Cola, and flavored drinks of all kinds. Millions of kids and adults suffer from millions of cavities because the Carmel gets between their teeth and starts up bacterial colonies between the molars, that go on to rot their teeth.  Drink a can of soda pop? Next, floss and brush!

Water in America might as well be a “foreign substance” not consumed by citizens.

If you read the ingredient labels on those “50,000” food items, you cannot pronounce the names.  It’s a good idea NOT to buy them for you or your family.

Do you see that candies of every kind line the shelves when you go through the cashier lines at your grocery store? It’s called, “Point of purchase” and since you’re hooked on sugar, you buy a couple of Snickers or Butternut candy bars.  Of course, you kids cry if they don’t get their sugar fix.

When your kids enjoy lunch at their schools, the dominant food paradigm companies make sure your kids eat plenty of pizzas, soda pops, processed foods and sugar.  One man in Chicago proved to an entire school district that their kids were receiving enormous amounts of trans fats, sugars, pizzas with gobs of cheese, and nutritionally poor offerings.  He tried to show them a balanced food menu.  He lost!  The dominant food companies flooded the parents with propaganda to keep the bad food choices.

For the past four years, I have called Sunsweet to have them stop from including “high fructose corn syrup” in their jars of prunes.  Each time, they tell me they will take it to their top people.  I wrote them with the consequences of “high fructose corn syrup.”  I said, “Why not put regular prune juice in your wet prune jars?”  As of this date, they NEVER get back to me, and they NEVER delete “high fructose corn syrup.”   Why? Because they don’t care about your health.

At Whole Foods, King Soopers, Publix, Kroger’s, and Safeway’s, I’ve written the companies as to why they offer organic fruits and vegetables, but then offer chemically sprayed fruits and vegetables.  Their excuse, “People with less money buy the sprayed produce.”  I said, “Have you given customers a sign over the fruits and vegetables that tells them that they are eating Roundup Up weed killer that causes cancer, birth defects and stomach issues from GMO’s?”  I asked for a response. To date, no responses, but they still offer chemicalized fruits and vegetables.  In other words, all grocery chains would rather poison their customers than offer solely organic produce and packaged foods without poisons.  A few stores offer only organic fruits and produce: Natural Grocers, Sprouts, and local organic food stores.

Will fast food chains ever provide wholesome, nutritious and organic food offerings?  Unless forced to change by laws, they couldn’t care less about your health.

That’s why 70 percent of Americans suffer low, middle and high obesity. Over 77 percent of young Americans cannot pass a physical for the Armed Forces.  Middle aged and old aged Americans spend billions on weight loss companies.  Unfortunately, most fail.

The reality remains: American citizens are one of the most unhealthy populations in the world. A million of us die of cancer annually. Another million die of heart attacks. Diabetes kills 100,000 annually.  We spend trillions on pills, diets, and companies that promise health benefits to solve our problems.  But when you look out there, the monster chemical company Monsanto keeps poisoning everything you eat with its chemicals on all our crops.  It buys off Congress and anyone who gets in its way.  You better bet that the FDA will not save you.  The American Cancer Society wants your money, but they won’t do squat to save you.  The American Medical Association won’t save you, but they will prescribe more drugs to stomp on your symptoms. Even the American Diabetes Association won’t do squat to stop diabetes.

Will the appointment of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to HHS change the poisoning of America and the “Food Industrial Complex”?  That remains to be seen. I’m not holding my breath.

Why would it be so easy to provide for your own health?  If you refuse to buy all that “crap” offered in food stores, if you refused to buy all those “sprayed” foods, if you refused to eat all that sugar, if you refused all those packaged foods with all those additives, and you demanded the Food Industrial Complex actually offers wholesome, organic foods—you would put Monsanto and the sugar people out of business.

Oh, you don’t have enough time?  Fact: the average American watches 4.1 hours of TV after work daily.  Can you imagine all the good things you could do by deleting all that TV time and cease all those hours on your Cell Phone that add up to a whole lot of nothing?

In the end, YOU must eat organic, wholesome and nutritious foods. Pile on the organic fruits, vegetables and non-GMO foods into your grocery bag.  YOU must exercise 90 minutes a day five- six days a week. You must keep your body, mind and spirit in balance.  You must choose to move through your youth, middle and old age with positive eating, positive exercise and positive spiritual practices.  You would/will make yourself healthier and our nation fit and fabulous.  God bless your journey.

November 14, 2024

After an 80-day intense $1,000,000,000.00 (billion), Kamala Harris’ advertising campaign to win the White House, the Diversity, Inclusion, Equity candidate fell down Air Force II steps, in flames.  What happened showed the entire nation that money cannot buy you the presidency.

The harsh reality remains: Biden invited her into the Vice Presidency with only two qualifications—she was a female and she was a person of color.  Those two items were not and are not qualifications—-they occur at birth by DNA.  Not only that, her parents were not American citizens when they birthed her on American soil. They were legal visitors.  One from Jamaica and the other from India.  Kamala was an anchor baby who was not legally qualified to become president.  Finally, in four years at the Vice Presidency, she accomplished NOTHING.  She answered for nothing, and when asked if she would change anything during her Biden years, she answered, “Nothing comes to mind.”

Well, anchor baby lady, about 15 to 20 million illegal aliens invading our country under your “border czar” watch, “Come to our minds”, the citizens of the United States.  We don’t want hundreds or even thousands of Springfield, Ohio’s with 15,000 illiterate Haitians flown into the towns in the dead of night and dumped onto the American residents.  Plus, we don’t want to pay for them, their crimes, their kids, their food, their housing, and their medical care.

It also showed that Kamala Harris who over-spent that $1.0 billion “buying” Oprah Winfrey with $1 million price tag along with Beyoncé’ and Taylor Swift, stands $20 million in campaign debt.  If she couldn’t manage $1.0 billion responsibly, how was she going to manage the trillions of dollars of the entire United States government?  It shows you that Diversity, Inclusion, Equity, DO NOT WORK.  As a nation, we cannot afford to promote anyone as to their gender, race, color, or ethnic group.  In a free society, you must earn your way through education, hard work, critical thinking, and plain old common sense.  You need to be qualified for a position. Kamala proved her only qualifications were to work at McDonald’s flipping hamburgers, but she didn’t even do that work!

Let’s let D.I.E. die a common sense, rational and total death in America. You want to succeed in our country?  Earn it!

What makes America great?  Meritocracy, educational excellence, creativity, money management, get to work on time, discipline, principles, and dedication.

Trump promised to shake things up in “The Swamp.”  Looks like he’s making that happen. With Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, with two Bronze Stars from combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, graduate of Princeton and Harvard, we won’t see any more Critical Race Theory being force fed to our troops. We won’t see generals with earrings in their ears and wearing dresses along with high heels.  We won’t see dudes who want to be girls in the fox hole with “toxic” American males charged with defending our country.  In the end, as to the U.S. Marines and U.S. Army, you need a MAN in that foxhole who is willing to kill the enemy…not ask for a dance with him.  We need men to lead other men, not baby them with promises of a pair of high heels, and a cocktail at a dinner party.

What about Critical Race Theory?  It’s a stupid, outlandish, racist rendition of absurdity that pits one American against another because of the color of their skin.  It’s outmoded, out of date, and out of touch with American values.  Notwithstanding, multi-millionaires Joy Reid and Whoopi Goldberg can dance and scream about racism in America, but they wouldn’t move back to their homeland in Africa for all the money in the world.  If they did, they would stand in food lines, sleep in thatched huts and use stinky outhouses if they were lucky.  They need to thank God for their lucky stars for being Americans.

What about W.O.K.E. thinking?  Answer:  “Woke has been used as shorthand for some ideas of the American Left involving identity politics and social justice, such as white privilege and reparations for slavery in the United States.”

Since there hasn’t been slavery in the USA for over 150 years, the term no longer applies to any race, creed, or color.  You make it in America through your own choice of excellence in education, hard work, and discipline.  While you may choose to live a subsistence life on welfare, people of color and all races in the United States of America live the highest standard of living in the world.  W.O.K.E. excuses won’t cut it.

Additionally, what about the insanity and stupidity of DNA males pretending to be females and competing in women’s sports?  Characters like “Lia” Thomas at 6’4”, a swimmer, beat the bathing suits off women half his size and strength.  For him to stand on the podium with a smile because he won a “Woman’s Trophy” in a woman’s race, must be the height of hubris/arrogance/narcissism and sheer mental illness. My bet: go with Riley Gaines, All-American, All-Woman.

For the NCAA people to allow it, and democrat politicians to support that kind of insanity—-everyone needs to take a biology test on what DNA stands for and how it mandates a “woman” and a “man.”  No matter how much you pretend to be one or the other gender, you are forever confined to your male DNA XY or female DNA of XX chromosomes.

Yes, by all means, dress up like a girl if you’re a man, if that’s your deal.  Dress up like a boy if you’re a woman. We don’t care.  But if you want to compete in sports, organize your own “transgender” competitions and quit desecrating American women’s sports.

Finally, no matter what you think about the Ukraine War, yes, it’s horrible that over 200,000 kids have been killed. But it’s not our war. It’s not ours to spend $200 billion of our tax dollars on their fight.  If anyone should help them, it would be the entire group of European nations.  We’ve got enough problems with 500,000 homeless, 250,000 drug overdose deaths in three years, Veterans living homeless in the streets, a $35 trillion national debt, 45 millions functionally illiterate Americans, 30 million subsisting on food stamps, total incompetence in the White House under Biden-Harris, infrastructure decay, horrendous gangs and criminals usurping our cities, over 30 million illegal aliens, being financially bled to death with over $120 billion cash transfers annually by legal and illegal migrants in our country back to their home countries.

We’ve got 80 million foreign born along with another 30 million illegal aliens, which disintegrates our culture, language and national cohesion. We’ve got American Muslims chanting,  “Death to America” as they openly support the extermination of Israel and every last Jewish person. Hamas and Palestinians in our country openly defy our laws of religious freedoms.  They fly their flags in open disgust for Old Glory.  They need to be deported, starting with Rashida Tlaib in Detroit and Ilhan Omar in Minneapolis.

Why are we putting up with all this political crap?  Why are democrats supporting such bulls**t in our country?  Why aren’t our lawmakers making logical and rational decisions to further American citizens’ interests?  Answer: DC is a majority swamp of corruption of career politicians that increase their bank accounts and do little to further American interests.  We need “Term Limits” to get fresh uncorrupted blood into Congress every four years.

It matters little what you think of President Trump as to his personality, but the one thing you can count on is the fact that he loves America, and he works for all Americans.  God help him and his cabinet and top staff to guide this country back onto a successful path in the next four years.  Plus, let’s give a “shout out” to Tulsi Gabbard for being extraordinarily astute, extremely well-spoken, highly intelligent, Colonel in the U.S. Army, Congresswoman, and now head of the Department of National Intelligence.  If anything, she should be the next woman president of the United States of America.

In a contest of any kind, somebody wins, somebody loses, somebody celebrates, and somebody cries. Ironically, during an NFL football game, each team tries to smash the heck out of its opponents. But at the end of the game, most of the players talk to their opponents and even hug them while laughing. The two coaches shake hands, say a few words, and go on their way.

But not in politics! Of course, nothing is reasonable or rational in politics. If you listen to Joy Reid on MSNBC, every American who voted for Trump is a misogynist, racist, xenophobe, trans hater, woman hater, unfair, unhappy and disgusting. According to all the girls on “The View”, half country lost its mind or doesn’t have a mind, or portrays the worst of America. The Woke crowd started screaming after “News Nation” called Trump the winner of the presidential sweepstakes. Even Van Jones said that his democrats were stupid in the way they didn’t address what was happening to America. “It was the border, stupid,” one pundit said.

My minister on Sunday morning said, “Well, on the political front, the republicans are happy, the democrats are shocked, and the independents are yawning. But in the end, we’re all Americans and we live in an amazing country where free speech, free choice and personal freedoms are guaranteed by our Constitution. We are lucky beyond anyone’s imagination to be Americans.” He received a standing ovation. Later, he asked all of us veterans to stand when the music was played for the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force and Coast Guard. We all received a standing ovation. I saluted the congregation through my own tears.

Because no matter how you cut it, our Armed Forces provide us with our freedoms. Every man and woman to serve America, in life and death, gave all of us the precious gift of freedom.

Kamala Harris will become a footnote in the history books. Donald J. Trump will fill a few pages. In the end, it’s we, the American people, and our precious lives, who benefit from the Founding Fathers’ genius. It’s those men and women at Valley Forge who made it possible. It’s those men in WWI, WWII that gave Europe its freedoms. Ultimately, it’s our Constitution that has been the foundation for free countries around the world. Yes, you still have Putin in Russia, Ung in North Korea, and Ping in China, and the dictator in Iran—-but across the globe, many people enjoy freedom from the concept of democracy.

At the same time, without a doubt, America bumps and grinds along with its warts and boils.

Kamala lost because of inflation, illegal immigration, and Harris’ focus on transgender issues, the next three factors named by all voters were that debt rose too high under the Biden–Harris administration, that Harris is too similar to President Joe Biden, and that Harris would let in millions more illegal aliens. One choice that scored high among swing state voters was that “Democrats did a bad job running the country.”

“In the end, Harris couldn’t outrun her past or her party—perhaps it was a lack of time, but it was certainly a vice grip that proved impossible to escape,” the polling report’s authors wrote.

Another said, “Kamala flat didn’t know what the hell she was doing. She couldn’t lead her way out of a paper bag.”

But then you see the political cartoons that told the story!

The “Trump Effect” – 72 hours after winning the 2024 Election:

♦ First female Chief of Staff appointed
♦ EENYC to stop giving debit cards to illegals
♦ US companies bring production home
♦ Stock market hitting all-time-highs
♦ Bitcoin hitting all-time-highs
♦ Newest migrant caravan breaking-up Qatar agrees to evict Hamas leaders
♦ Hamas wants “immediate” end to war Taliban claims to want “new chapter” China wants “peaceful coexistence”
♦ Russia is “ready” to speak with the US TEU wants to buy US gas, not
♦ Russian gas Ukraine leaders in talks with Trump/Elon

Picture showing Trump making French Fries at McDonald’s, “Yeah, this is going to be my last shift. I got my old job back last night.”

Picture showing Nancy Pelosi, 84, crying, “Well, good morning…well, this is not a good morning, but it’s here.”

A baby sleeping in her crib, “How you sleep—-knowing you won’t have to hear that cackle for four more years.”

Picture of the Harris-Walz bus careening over a cliff, “Maybe we should have veered to the Right a little more.”

I shopped at Barnes & Noble last night to ask the clerk, “Do you have the new book out on how Trump is going to deport all those illegal aliens?” She fired back, “Get the F*** out of here and don’t come back.” I said, “Yes, that’s the book. Do you have it in paperback?”

Then, a picture of Forrest Gump on a bench, “And just like that…the cackling stopped.”

The loudest sound on Earth, “Those screaming with Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

Picture of the Rachel Levine, a biological man who is fat, wears dresses, and is head of Health and Human Services, “I am an expert on mental health and food disorders.” Only in America!

Picture of House member Adam Schiff, a citizen said, “If people can go to prison for lying to Congress, shouldn’t Adam Schiff go to prison for lying to the American people?” (i.e. Russia Gate Hoax)

Picture of 15 million illegal aliens storming America’s borders, “Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Deport all 30 million illegals and taxpayers won’t have to feed them again.” (Costs range over $150 billion annually for food, housing, schools and medical care)

As we approach Veteran’s Day, my hat’s off to every American who served. My hats off to my grandfather Jesse Ward Johnson who served in WWI, to my father Marine M/Sgt Howard Wooldridge, my brother Scott Navy, my brother John Air Force and Army, and to all my old Army buddies who made it through Vietnam. God bless you, and God bless America.

Well, what do you know? Trump won! How do you feel? What is the Golden Age of America? How does the other half of the country feel? When will we all get on the same page?

One talking head said, “If you’re in the Super Bowl, and Tom Brady gets injured, you do not put in a quarterback who has never played a down or thrown a pass. In other words, you don’t put Kamala Harris into the presidency when she has never done anything to earn the spot. She wouldn’t know what to do, how to do it, or how to handle the reins of power. The other team would crush her. In other words, you don’t toss someone into a position whose only qualifications are “Diversity, Inclusion, Equity.”

America escaped having someone who didn’t know what they were doing other than vacant speeches with bromides and platitudes of emotional “garbage.” The American people saw through it from every angle.

Morning Joe Scarborough and his side kick should be renamed, “Mourning Joe.” Joy Reid should take on the moniker, “Joyless Blabber.” Jack Tapper might be renamed “Jake the Snake.” Whoopi Goldberg might be called “Well Shut My Mouth, Mama.” And Al Sharpton might enjoy being renamed “Executive Liar and Thief Race Baiter.”

Whatever you want to call it, the mainstream media got their butts kicked. An enormous 98 percent of their cover of Trump ran to the negative. An enormous amount of reporting for Kamala ran positive. But in the end, the American people would not take the bait. They would not swallow the Kool Aid. They would not succumb to how “dumb” the power elites thought of them.

The farce of the Russia Hoax, the New York Hoax Trial with the “D.I.E.” lawyer didn’t work, the Fani Willis hoax in Georgia fell apart, Attorney General Merick Garland was exposed, and the entire Biden-Harris facade of “competence” dissolved into a puddle of rancid balderdash.

While America faces endless challenges, we wont see another 20 million illegal aliens invading our country beginning January 20, 2025. We won’t see 250,000 drug over dose deaths from all the drugs invading our borders. We won’t see more criminals raping and killing our women. We won’t see our schools turned into linguistic and educational horror shows with kids from 180 different countries. We won’t get midnight flights from third world countries to bring in over 350,000 illegal aliens by our own president. No more Springfield, Ohio’s. We won’t have all that power in the U.S. Senate being used to cover up the corruption going on in that “Swamp.”

For all of us, we are watching the greatest political phenomenon to rise into the White House in all of American history. He couldn’t be law-fared into submission. He couldn’t be broken. He couldn’t be killed by two snipers. He didn’t bow to the pollsters. He stood up in the face deadly danger, pumped his fist, yelling, “Fight, fight, fight.” He embodied America.

When Kamala was asked what she would change after four years in the White House and in power during a soft interview on the TV program, The View, she said, “Nothing comes to mind.”

That did it for million upon millions of Americans. She proved she was incapable of becoming president of the United States.

The fact remains: Biden and Harris broke the U.S. Constitution at every juncture. When the history books are written, both of them will be written up as Constitutional criminals. They broke our laws. They broke our cities. They broke our bank accounts. They broke our drug laws. They enabled criminals to kill and rape our kids. They cost us billion to house criminals and cartels. They encouraged Jihadists to enter our country to blow us up.

In the end, Harris finished herself with her own hubris, her own incompetence, her own inability to be a leader. Emotions only carried her so far.

As a full blooded American, I love my country. I love the U.S. Constitution. I love my fellow Americans. I love legal immigrants. Too many men and women have died serving our country. Kamala did not and would not serve our country. That’s why she will never rise to any national prominence again.

Thankfully, the Founding Fathers knew what they were doing with the three branches of government. They knew what they were doing with the Electoral College. They knew what they were doing with the Supreme Court.

And now, we have a leader who knows what he is doing. And, he works tirelessly for all Americans. Whether you’re a liberal or conservative, be thankful she didn’t take over the quarterback slot when Tom Brady was injured. In the case of our team, she would have lost the Super Bowl. We would have lost our country.t

A cautionary tale of another democracy, Canada:

What happens in a country that loses its own cultural through mass immigration? Look no further than Canada, where its national identity is disintegrating. In 2015, soon after taking office, the new Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gushed to a fawning New York Times that, “There is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada. There are shared values – openness, respect, compassion, willingness to work hard, to be there for each other – but there is no core identity, no mainstream in Canada.”

Along with his fellow travelers in the institutions, he set to work ripping the country’s historic identity to shreds. The three prongs of the attack involved setting fire to its past, promoting LGBTQ and critical race theory in schools and government, and unleashing an unprecedented wave of mass migration. Only now that the full impact of this cultural revolution is sinking in is the country waking up. Even the mainstream liberal left admits things have gone too far.

Former Tory cabinet minister Kevin Klein added, “Today, our country’s identity is under siege, not from outside invaders but from within – by an ideology that seeks to erase what it means to be Canadian. The left’s relentless attack on our values, history, and sense of belonging is tearing at the very fabric of our democracy.”

Look no further than the last four years of Harris-Biden in “ripping up America’s national culture and identity.” When democracy dies in the darkness, we citizens all live in the shadows—not heard, not honored and no longer part of the conversation of our own country. No longer in the conversation for our own national destiny! No longer a Constitutional Republic! We no longer enjoy a cohesive national identity.

When it comes to voting, the mainstream media now refers to “Arab-Americans.” What a farce! Muslims do not and will never subscribe to “democracy.” They only subscribe to Allah, Sharia Law and bowing to Mecca five times a day. They subscribe to honor killings, female genital mutilation, women valued at 1/2 a man, four wives, beating their women to keep them in line, and just about everything in violation of our laws. They cannot and will not assimilate or value what it means to be an American citizen. They will continue to use their numbers to out-vote America’s laws and culture, to turn their enclaves into Sharia Law. One look at Detroit, Michigan will bring that point home rather drastically. During Hamas’ attack on Israel, our Detroit Muslims chanted, “Death to America.”

Last week, in Norway, their top Islamic Im’am stated that “Norway will become an Islamic state.” All the top newspapers ran the story of their own country being destroyed by mass Muslim immigration. Since Norway houses a mere 4,000,000 people, its smaller numbers will easily be overtaken by Islamic immigration. And, like Harris’ America of mass illegal migration, those African/Middle Eastern immigrants keep pouring into Norway’s guts. Canada and Europe’s Western Cultures face being exterminated.

OUR FATE IN AMERICA

America faces being run by an unknown cartel of powerful men with mega money to control ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN, NPR and the like, to control our choices, our thoughts, our understanding of events as they spin them away from reality.

Harris deliberately allowed the importation of 15-20 million illegal aliens that were not vetted, not lawfully invited, not a part of America’s cultural fabric, outright criminals and insane asylum patients, and worse. She injected millions of fentanyl pills into our country to kill several hundred thousand American kids, 250,000 kids, to be exact.

And yet, the mainstream media promotes her and degrades Trump. He’s had every kind of illegal and unwarranted attack on him such as the Russia Hoax, the New York Trial Hoax, the Impeachment Hoax, the Georgia Trial Hoax, Law Fare Hoax and more. And then, he’s got the media calling him Hitler as they take aim to kill him. Even Biden said he needs to be in someone’s “bull’s eye.” That inane talking head Joy Reid, who couldn’t pass an eighth grade science test, wants him “eliminated.” And the Secret Service has become a laughingstock for anyone who wants to kill him.

Exponential Growth Cannot Be Sustained

My friend and fellow colleague, Leon Kolankiewicz, Science Director at www.NumbersUSA.com said, “Our greatest blunder with unlimited immigration is not being able to understand exponential growth because it can come on so suddenly and it hits you like a ton of bricks. If you’re growing at one percent a year, that’s a doubling time in population of 70 years. If you’re growing by two percent a year, that’s a doubling time of 35 years. Any species that grows exponentially is unsustainable.”

As a world traveler, I cannot come back to our harsh reality often enough. The top scientists back up everything I write about.

“Unlimited population growth cannot be sustained; you cannot sustain growth in the rates of consumption of resources. No species can overrun the carrying capacity of a finite land mass. This law cannot be repealed and is not negotiable.” Dr. Albert Bartlett, University of Colorado

Every single person that votes for Kamala votes for their own suicide of their community, their family and their own country. If she wins the White House, she’s not going to stop another 15 to 20 million illegals from pouring into our country, their birth rates and their use of resources. When you add this national nightmare up, we remain on course to add 100,000,000 (million) people, net gain, within 25 years. Like my friend Leon said, “These numbers are not sustainable.”

There’s no way we will ever feed, water, work, house, medically care for, or educate the numbers that we face as a civilization. And then, you must address “quality of life.” What happens when you’re locked out of your own National Parks because of the sheer numbers of people who want to visit them? What happens when air pollution becomes toxic beyond solving? What happens when our country rots from within as we see more mass shootings weekly from crazy people who cannot function in our overpopulated cities?

And, solving climate change? That’s the biggest farce of all. Why? Answer this question. How will we ever solve catastrophic climate destabilization by adding another 100,000,000 people to America? How will we be able to provide them with all the electricity, fuel and transport energy to maintain a civil society?

How will we culturally survive all those cultural enclaves that lack any affinity with Western Culture? Anybody out there want to answer those questions?

“A simple look at the greenhouse emissions indicates we will continue to squeeze the trigger on the gun we have put to our own head.” Eugene Linden, The Winds of Change: Climate, Water and the Destruction of Civilization

Anyone voting for Kamala Harris votes for the destruction of their own country on multiple levels. She simply does not know what she’s doing or how to solve any of the Mt. Everest of problems facing America. But in reality, she’s compounding them beyond solving.

Finally, you and your family will be facing all these problems without any solutions. And, those problems steam toward you like a brakeless, runaway locomotive. When democracy dies in the darkness, you will live in the shadows.

“People supporting Donald J. Trump are garbage,” said Lame Duck Joe Biden.

Way back when John Adams battled Thomas Jefferson for the presidency, the papers wrote scathing editorials about Jefferson. He proved to be the second coming of the devil himself. Their extremely tight race ended up in the House of Representatives. Jefferson prevailed.

Both men, at the end of their lives, rekindled their friendship in a series of letters over the years. They both died the same day 50 years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

You know, and I know, that “free speech” stands as the hallmark in our U.S. Constitution. It’s the first amendment because it’s the most important amendment. No question that our freedom of speech waxes VERY MESSY at times during political battles. Thankfully, the Founders balanced our Constitution in order to give every free citizen a chance to speak for himself or herself.

That’s how Susan B. Anthony gathered all of America’s women to give the ladies The Vote. Good for her and good for free speech.

For over 50 years of my journalistic life, I’ve said a few things that may have curled a few ears that don’t like my perspectives. But the one thing that I maintain stems from the incredible “right” to speak one’s mind in our free society.

So when pretend president Joe Biden calls half of America “GARBAGE”, I take issue with such a rude, crude moniker. Why is that? Answer: most Americans love this country, love their families, pray to God, go to church, pay their taxes, and stand for Old Glory. Sure, we’ve got warts, callouses, wrongs, and dark rainbows of past mistakes. Most of those mistakes come from underhanded politicians. When historians write about Joe Biden’s “forever” life in Washington DC, it’s going to come out that he was/is one of the most deceitful, lying, dishonest and biggest blowhards ever to live in the White House. His four years in the presidency prove an incredible failure as to following his oath of office to protect and defend the United States of America. He invited/allowed the greatest invasion of America’s borders ever to occur in world history. I can state that because it’s true, and unlike Russia’s Vladamir Putin who kills his opponents for telling the truth, Joe Biden can’t touch me.

But when Old Alzheimer’s Joe calls half of Americans “GARBAGE,” well, he can get away with it. Except, he’s supposed to represent all Americans equally. It’s our country, too.

At 11, I mowed lawns for 25 cents. I delivered papers for two cents a paper. I washed cars for 50 cents a vehicle. I bagged groceries and stocked shelves. In high school, I lifeguarded for 75 cents an hour. I painted houses. I worked as a baggage handler for United Air Lines during college. I waited tables for paltry tips. I became a bartender. I taught dance. I became an ROTC officer in the U.S. Army. I was a head resident advisor in college. I worked as a cardiac catheterization medical tech. I earned a teaching certificate and taught for $5,400.00 annually. Then, I became a United Van Lines long haul trucker moving furniture. A brutal job of hard work and LONG hours. I worked my way into becoming a journalist and author of many books.

All those experiences got me in touch with every kind and type of American. Guess what? From the tire changer, to the waitress, to the trucker, to the grocery clerk, to the plumber, to the electrician, to the secretary—I’ve worked with them all. And ALL OF THEM LOVE AMERICA. And 99 percent of them are anything but garbage.

In the end, it’s not politicians that make America work. It’s US, the common ordinary American citizens who get up each morning and go to work, pay their taxes, serve their country, volunteer at schools, love their husbands, wives and kids.

So, in the end, I really feel sorry for people like Joe Biden or even Kamala Harris because both of them have made a mess of America for the past four years. Opening our borders like they did should have gotten both of them impeached. Allowing criminals into our country should have gotten them impeached. Allowing all those drugs that killed several hundred thousand kids should have gotten them impeached. Getting those military personnel killed in Afghanistan should have gotten somebody fired. Getting Laken Riley and dozens more citizens killed should have gotten Biden and Harris impeached.

Instead, we citizens, who actually make this country run, keep paying the price for our politicians’ lies about the wars they create, the drugs they import, the crime they encourage, the homeless they refuse to solve, and another 100 problems facing America—————HOWEVER, WE, THE PEOPLE, WILL PREVAIL. HOW? BECAUSE OUR VOTES WILL TAKE OUT THE TRASH!

We, the American people, suffered under cognitively bankrupt Joe Biden for the past four years.  His incompetence and/or that of his handlers has created an economic, racial, cultural and border nightmare never before seen in American history.

He chose as his vice president, a woman with an exceptionally narrow if not empty resume’, that depended on the fact that she was a female of color. Her Jamaican father and Indian mother were not citizens when they birthed her on American soil. Her “anchor baby” beginnings may give an understanding of her blatant disregard for America’s immigration laws, America’s borders, and America’s right to the rule of law.

After Biden’s disastrous debate with Trump last summer, Schumer, Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi shoved Joe Biden out of the running—-and without any delegate votes—the Democratic National Convention “coronated, installed and injected” in total disregard of the rules, Kamala Harris into presidential candidate spot.

They installed her when several other candidates like Minnesota’s    Dean Phillips stood head and shoulders above Kamala’s horrifically inept record as vice president.  Robert F. Kennedy Junior stood ahead of Kamala Harris. Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI), an Army Colonel, towered over Kamala. But much like the farce of Joe Biden’s Alzheimer’s presidency, the DNC Deep State decided on another puppet to be placed into the White House.

The question remains, who in their right mind, with an ounce of common sense, would elect a woman who has failed every day in her capacity as vice president of the United States?

First of all, in 3 1/2 years, 92 percent of her staff resigned because they could not stand her lack of civility.  Those staff members enjoyed very nice salaries, yet 9 out of 10 of them quit while serving under Kamala.  You might engage the Peter Principle to show her incompetence.

As the leader of her office staff, any corporation head would have fired her!

Second, when given the “Border Czar” status to stop the invasion, she did NOTHING in 3 1/2 years to stop in excess of 15 to 20 million illegal aliens from violating our borders. She invited the largest invasion of any country in the history of the world.  She violated her oath of office, the U.S. Constitution, Article IV, Section 4 of the Constitution, and U.S. Code 8, Section 1324.  She demanded that Immigration, Customs, Enforcement be disbanded, and that the U.S. Border Patrol operated like the KKK.

If given the green light, Kamala will open our borders to another 15 to 20 million illegal aliens.  We will pay and pay and pay. Does that make for any common sense?

What did she cause?  She caused over 250,000 drug overdose deaths of American citizens as the drug cartels enjoyed carte blanc for distributing drugs across our border and into all our cities.  Kamala stands responsible for untold misery of addictions, crime and deaths.

Kamala allowed hundreds of thousands of criminals to migrate into America and set up shop.  We see enormous crime spikes in every major city where illegal alien migrants persist.

Kamala’s directly responsible for dozens of deaths like college student Laken Riley, out for a jog, suffered death, rape and brutality from an illegal alien.

Third, in 2020, she personally organized “bail bonds” to free criminals from jail that were burning down our cities after George Floyd’s event.  She encouraged more lawlessness.

Fourth, once in office, she and Joe Biden were the last two people in the room when they “okayed” the catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan.  She and Joe engineered the single greatest military blunder in American history.  Some 13 military active duty died because of her.  When asked on “The View” if she had any regrets over the past four years, she replied, “None that come to mind.”  When you add up over 15 million illegal aliens, 250,000 drug overdose deaths, and horrific collapse of the rule of law in America—why in the name of common sense would any American vote for such sheer incompetence?

Fifth, when asked how she would change inflation, lower food prices, and lower gas prices, she replied,  “I want to create an ‘opportunity economy’.”  That includes price controls and government interference in basic capitalism.  In other words, she admitted to being a Marxist like her father.  In reality, she lacks any understanding of economics, inflation, value of the dollar, international currency.  She doesn’t have a clue as to how the stock market operates. She’s never run a business. She’s the “coronation” child of “Affirmative Action”, and now the presidency of the United States.

Sixth, she’s SO inept that her handlers will not let her speak without a teleprompter that gives a specific message, and that message always ends up with a “word salad” of meaningless gibberish.  She flat out doesn’t know that the hell she’s doing.

Seventh, when you look at the absolute corruption and incompetence Biden and she brought to the White House, who in their right mind vote for another four years of THAT kind of sheer stupidity?    Do you realize that someone with that level of incompetent will surround themselves with others at THAT level of incompetence.  It’s called, “The Peter Principle” support team.  It means that she will blunder into the presidency without a clue on how to deal with Ukraine or Israel.  She said she will initiate “peace”, but she doesn’t have a clue on how to bring that about.  She lacks any clue as to the dynamics of the Middle East. NONE!

Eighth,  President Lincoln said, “You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can’t fool all the people all of the time.”  Since Joe Biden has escaped the long arm of the law in his pathetic “forever” tenure in Washington DC, it’s only a matter of time before he and his son Hunter fall to the rule of law.  In Kamala’s case, she’s running on emotions rather than policy. Much like that unaccomplished U.S. senator from Pennsylvania, John Fetterman, who could not speak a reasonable sentence, voters voted him into office via emotions rather than merit.

Right now, anyone voting for Kamala votes because of their undying attachment to the democrat party.

Unfortunately, on the world stage, Putin, Kim Jung Un, China’s Jin Ping will eat her for lunch.  If Kamala reaches the White House, you can bet China will invade Taiwan. Russia will devour Ukraine and Iran will spread terror everywhere across the globe.

As stated before, in Western industrial societies, The Peter Principle shows that most people are advanced to their highest level of incompetence.  If the American people fail to use their common sense, fail to see Kamala’s failures, they (we) face another four years of catastrophic and epic failures on a national and global scale beyond anyone’s imagination.

Kamala Harris in the past four years of her pretend Vice Presidency invited 15 million illegal aliens into America. That’s on top of the 15 million already here. In a recent interview, she wants to give them a pathway to citizenship.

Why would anyone want 30 million illegal aliens to gain a foothold in America? Why would anyone want third world crime to become entrenched in America? What possible reason drives such a path for democrats in Washington DC?

Our country continues to become less safe no matter where we Americans live. The Harris-Biden administration does not care one bit for the lives of Americans. Those two scoundrels in the White House couldn’t care less about the massive crime wave they’ve perpetrated on Americans.

Just five months before Luis Calzaeilla-Rojas, a Venezuelan illegal and Tren de Arangua gangbanger was arrested after a shooting outside a probation office in Aurora, Colorado, he was welcome into the US by Harris the Border Czar who was supposed to deport criminals. He crossed over illegally, but Harris welcomed him along with another 1.3 million like him.

Absolutely no vetting whatsoever for any of them! Harris created the program without any approval by Congress. Homeland Security sources said that there is no vetting of migrants from Venezuela, Haiti, Central and South America. Homeland Security Chief Mayorkas should be tried for treason.

Illegal alien Fermin Garcia-Gutierrez, 46, used seven different names and three different birth dates. He was deported eight times with 11 arrests and now faces murder charges in Ohio.

North Dakota Attorney General Drew Wrigley warned that illegal immigration flows through the northern U.S. border accelerated under the Biden administration, “Will continue with the worst yet to come.”

Wrigley said, “The situation has deteriorated dramatically in recent years, and the current situation is untenable with millions of illegals entrants streaming across America’s southwest border. Norther. Dakota is already experiencing negative law enforcement impacts because of Biden’s refusal to shut down the border, but the worst is coming as to street crimes, violence as well as America’s national security.”

Chacaguasay-Ilbis, 21, from Equator, an illegal migrant charged with suffocating, killing young woman on her birthday. Her names as Joselyn Toaquiza of Syracuse, New York.

These human animals continue their spread and gang activity throughout the United States.

“As if New York isn’t already plagued by rampant crime, the Venezuelan migrant gang Tren de Aragua has now extended its violent reach throughout the city (“Big Apple is a Tren wreck,” Sept. 23).

“Their criminality has even affected the safety of schools near Roosevelt Avenue, where a sordid brothel has been operating. The criminal degradation resulting from the influx of illegal immigration worsens by the day, threatening the safety of neighborhoods and residents alike.

“When illicit activities occur so close to schools, it is clear that we are approaching societal collapse.”

From Texas:

Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang recruiting kids from Texas middle schools.

Cova was identifiable as Tren de Aragua from a five-point crown tattoo on his arm.

A confirmed Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang member has been arrested for allegedly recruiting students from two Houston schools to become new gang members.

Jorgenys Robertson Cova, an illegal alien from Venezuela, entered the United States two years ago, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The 32-year-old was arrested Monday after a string of alleged thefts.

Cova is also alleged to have recruited middle school students from Jane Long Academy and Las Americas, which are part of Houston Independent School District.

“Government leaders in the United States, Western Europe (save Hungary’s Viktor Orban) and Israel are, for the most part, as corrupt as any mafia gangster. In fact, mafia gangsters might have more scruples than these crooked politicians. They are truly people without conscience,” said journalist Baldwin.

The fact remains that Harris-Biden has deliberately brought over 15 million illegal criminal aliens into America in the expectation that they will vote Kamala into the White House.

This commentary could go for pages and pages as to the criminality of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. In four years, they created the greatest invasion of any country known to humankind. The numbers reach beyond insanity into a “netherworld” where most Americans just can’t get a grasp of what’s happening. Painfully, David Muir, Norah O’Donnell, Lester Holt, Scott Pelley, Terry Gross and Scott Simon will not tell you about this invasion. Even when they know their own children and grandchildren will be swept up into its ugly clutches!

What is the worst part? That’s the harsh reality that Kamala Harris commands at least 50 percent of the American electorate. She’s the result of “affirmative action” in her education, and “D.E.I” in her rise through the ranks of California, and finally, “given” the Vice Presidency for being a person of color and a woman. Her supporters cannot comprehend the fact that if she gains the White House, none of us will enjoy our lawful society any longer.

“The budget should be balanced, the treasury refilled, public debt reduced, the arrogance of officialdom tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands curtailed, lest Rome become bankrupt.” ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero

Douglas Murray wrote a European bestselling book: The Strange Death of Europe.

When millions of people migrated and are migrating into America in the 20th and 21st century, which they have now at over 140 million third world souls, they do not, will not and cannot relinquish their languages, their customs, their dress, their religions and their world views. In other words, the American people are being “denationalized” to a point that no one identifies as “American.”

If you visit Detroit, Michigan, you will not be greeted as a fellow American by the dominant 300,000 Syrian Islamists who chant, “Death to America.” You won’t see Old Glory being flown, but you will see Palestinian flags along with Hamas flags being flown. You won’t hear English at the local restaurant. You won’t see Christian churches, because mosques have replaced them. In fact, if you are a Jew or Christian, you are not welcome in Detroit’s Muslim dominated areas. You WILL see women wearing burkas that turn them into “non-beings” as required by the Qur’an. Oh, and the majority of those immigrants live on welfare from your tax dollars.

A trip to Minneapolis, Minnesota would find you landing in Somaliland, which is dominated by 125,000 immigrated Africans that find no affinity with America or Americans. They absorb welfare, enjoy welfare lives, yet fail to become educated or contributing members of that area. An American would not be welcome in their communities.

A trip to Miami would show you dozens of other ethnic tribes and languages that you would feel totally out of place. If you’re Caucasian, you would be in a very severe minority. If you speak English, you won’t understand the dozens of languages spoken in Miami. If your children attended schools in South Florida, their education would be lowered to the lowest common denominator of “dumbing down” a classroom.

A trip to Chicago would find you dodging bullets. This past 4th of July, 117 people were shot over that weekend, with over a dozen killed. Because it’s a “Sanctuary City”, it festers with tens of thousands of homeless migrants being paid to live in hotels at your expense for as long as they like. That’s brought to you by the U.S. Government, Harris-Biden, and your U.S. Congress.

In Denver, Colorado, foreign gangs roam the streets and take over apartment buildings where they plan their shoplifting sprees, pickpocketing, stealing cars, and living in hotels provided by that “Sanctuary City.” How do I know, I live near Denver, and the nightly news used to shock us, but now days, just about as normal as Chicago.

As to Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas, Santa Anna didn’t have to conquer the Texans at the Alamo, he just had to wait until most of Mexico, Central and South America migrated into the Lone Star State. The Dallas Cowboys are no longer “America’s Team”, because you won’t find too many “Texans” to represent Texas.

And, Los Angeles? What a complete and total nightmare of millions of third world illegal aliens who could care less about our laws, the U.S. Constitution, speaking English, engaging in an education, or identifying themselves with anything “American.” When you add the 175,000 homeless Americans and illegal aliens, you’ve got a stinking toilet of humanity degrading everything as to what once was, an All-American city.

What about that fabulous “City by the Bay” in Tony Bennett’s song about San Francisco. Today, it’s a crime-ridden multicultural nightmare played out with 50,000 homeless pissing and defecating in the streets, shops closed, hotels closed, Whole Foods pulled out, and taxpayers fleeing because of robberies, pickpockets, murderers running at large, no respect for our laws, and drugs on EVERY corner and near schools. San Francisco may be one of our most dysfunctional cities in America, right alongside Los Angeles. Ditto for Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington.

As noted in an earlier column, Harris-Biden have forced the United States into growing at 10,000 to 15,000 people net gain, DAILY. That’s in the vicinity of 4 million more people added, net gain, annually. But, they are not Americans, and they don’t ever expect to become Americans.

Why do you think we have all of a sudden become an anti-Jewish society? All those Palestinian flags flying all over those college campuses should give you a hint as to what’s coming.

And yet, more Americans are more interested in who wins the next NFL game rather than if their own country will survive this immigration invasion.

Historians are going to remark that we were as stupid as the Romans. We were as stupid as Great Britain. We were as stupid as Germany. We were as stupid as every country in Europe that allowed an invasion of incompatible cultures and religions to inundate them into total loss of their cultures, languages and civility. They did it to themselves. They “de-Europeanized” themselves, their civil societies, their cultures and their way of life.

Guess what? America follows right in Europe’s footsteps. We are being “denationalized” at a rate of speed never seen in the history of the world.

Some say we deserve it because we conquered the Native Americans right out of their home continent. Others say we deserve it for our part in slavery. Some say it’s “cosmic payback” on a grand scale.

As an American who visited all those cities in the past two summers, I can tell you that if we keep speeding along this current path set upon us by Harris-Biden, there’s no way in hell we’re going to survive what’s coming.

President Theodore President said, “The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, or preventing all possibility of its continuing as a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities.” 1904.

“America’s immigration policies have launched us into a risky experiment never tried by a modern day country or any country in history,” said Dan Stein, www.Fairus.org , “What remains to be seen is if this country has the capacity to accommodate and assimilate an unending wave of mass immigration. Failure to do so will result in a balkanized, fragmented, strife-torn and dysfunctional America.”

As you can see immigrants add clashing cultural conflicts that arise at the drop of a hat. In states across our nation, they wave their own country’s flags, promote polygamy as their cultural right, female genital mutilation, honor killings, home school in their own rituals and create enclaves that are fast balkanizing.

As you can see in Springfield, Ohio, or any small berg being forced to incorporate incompatible illegal aliens, we’re all on a rough road leading us right into the depths of cultural and demographic hell.

“You don’t know my people—-the squalor, superstitions, the fatalistic sloth that they’ve wallowed in for generations. You don’t know what you’re in for if that fleet of brutes ever lands in your lap. Everything will change in this country of yours. They will swallow you up.” Jean Raspail, Camp of the Saints

Fellow Americans, we are being swallowed up at the hands of our own elected leaders.

Are you confused as to what’s going on in Washington DC, in Ukraine or Israel?  What kind of a dumpster fire blazes in a community near you?  Are you a Chicago resident near 10,000 homeless illegal aliens?  Are you working or living near the 175,000 homeless in Los Angeles?  Do you live near the 180,000 homeless illegals in New York City? Are you living in Arab-dominated Muslim enclave in Detroit?  Are you sick of seeing Palestinian flags displacing Old Glory at our universities?  Are you sick of wide-open borders, skyrocketing grocery prices and nothing ever gets solved?

Gees, join the club. Let’s face it, we’ve got millions of kids glued to their cell phones, 24/7.  We’ve got tens of thousands of American drug addicts from drugs pouring over our borders.  Even the 250,000 drug overdose deaths in the past 3 1/2 years hasn’t stopped the Harris-Biden administration from allowing more drugs to continue pouring over our borders.

If you look at our TV programs, you will find this country’s networks think Americans constitute some of the dumbest people on the planet.  Let’s face it, “Love After Lockup” must be the most illiterate, moronic program on Earth.  It’s SO stupid, you must lower your IQ to that of an imbecile.  Those gameshows mimic the Roman Games with no bloodbath. Just food and circuses for the masses!  Totally meaningless!

All the while, we’ve got 14 million drunks driving cars on our nation’s highways 24/7 according to Mothers Against Drunk Driving.  That results in 20,000 deaths annually, but no one in state legislatures or governors’ offices will stop it by mandating severely stricter laws to impound cars and licenses for 10 years upon the first drunken event.  Why not make drunk and drugged or texting driving consequences SO SEVERE that no one would dare break the law? If they do, they hit a jail cell.  We’re talking simple and effective!

Why does our U.S. Congress allow the drug invasion of our borders to kill our citizens by the hundreds of thousands?  Why are 100 U.S. Senators so useless, and why do we keep re-electing them?

What if Laken Riley was your daughter?  Would you be happy that Kamala Harris, in a national interview, would not change one thing in the past four years of her administration?  She and Biden allowed/invited more than 15 million illegal aliens, murderers, rapists, criminals and worse in our country.  We’re talking GROSS incompetence, but no consequences!  If it wasn’t gross incompetence, then, she and Biden did it on purpose to destabilize our country, and ultimately, to set it on a path toward internal destruction.

That Afghanistan debacle, withdrawal that got 13 service people killed should have faced consequences.  Heck, what about the reported 131,000 military Marines and Army soldiers that died from soldier-suicide?  What about their families?  Why didn’t we withdraw from the Middle East the day after Osama bin Laden was killed in 2011?  Are the Military Industrial Complex corporate heads that sadistic?  Answer: Hell yes!  That’s why they keep creating and expanding wars.

In the name of common sense, with all those Dumpster Fires blazing across America, why do our Congress critters and Senators send billions of dollars to dozens of countries around the world ANNUALLY——WHEN WE NEED IT FOR OUR CITIZENS?!  Can you answer that question?

And now, artificial intelligence portends every kind of disinformation known to humanity to be pumped into our society.  No wonder teen suicides accelerate because our kids cannot maintain any emotional—spiritual—physical balance in their lives.  It’s beyond insane that our kids spend four, six and even eight hours a day on their phones.  And then, you look at the diabetes—obesity levels exploding among our young!  It’s crazy to see it from the sidelines.

As to those Dumpster Fires, have you seen the TV programs promoting every kind of “cure” for every kind of physical problem that none of us have ever heard of before?  At the end, they give a proviso that taking this drug, “Could cause internal bleeding, vomiting, constipation, headaches, sudden death, high blood pressure….”  Then, more smiling faces from users.  What a load of crap.  How about eating organic, balanced, healthful, and nutritious meals with at least 35 grams of fiber, daily?  Gees, what a concept.

The biggest Dumpster Fire we face continues to explode into our faces as America is being forced to grow by over 10,000 to 15,000 people, net gain, daily.

That’s in the neighborhood of 4 to 5 million annually, net gain. That’s another 100 million within 25 years.  I’ve been warning my U.S. Senators for over 20 years. They refused to listen.  It’s a joke that we’re pretending to solve Catastrophic Climate Destabilization by GROWING our population.  It shows you we are being led by incompetent fools in Biden and Harris.  Anybody that thinks we need more immigrants is like the man with cancer, who will take any cure the doctors give him, as long as he doesn’t have to stop smoking three packs of cigarettes daily.

WE ARE NOT PREPARED FOR WHAT’S COMING

“As we go from this happy hydrocarbon bubble we have reached now to a renewable energy resource economy, which we must do in this century, will the “civil” part of civilization survive?  As we all know there is no way alternative energy sources can supply the amount of per capita energy we enjoy with oil today, much less for the 9 billion people expected by 2050 on this Earth.  And energy is what keeps this game going.  We are involved in a Faustian Bargain selling our economic souls for the luxurious life of the moment, but sooner or later the price must be paid.”  Water Youngquist, Energy

What happens when all the terrorists that Harris-Biden allowed into the country begin their Jihad on us, “The Great Satan”?  How many Americans are going to die?  You can bet it will be more than a few.

Please realize that these citizen journalist reports go beyond the WSJ, Washington Post, New York Times, et al. Those reporters get paid to suppress or avoid the serious consequences coming down on our society.  When “The View” asked Kamala Harris what she would change in the past four years, she said,  “Nothing comes to mind….”

Which makes you wonder if she actually houses a brain in that skull of hers.  And Lord, can any of us endure her cackling laugh for another four years?

Let’s face it, America became a Dumpster Fire for the past four years under Harris-Biden. The mainstream media does everything in its power to hide what’s really happening and what happened to our country. It matters little whether its Lester Holt, David Muir, Norah O’Donnell, Scott Simon, Terry Gross, Martha Raddatz, Jake Tapper, John Dickerson, Scott Pelley, Forest Whittaker, Leslie Stahl, Diane Sawyer and all the rest. On purpose, they refuse to report on what’s really happening to America.

Yes, they cover the daily “news” stories that don’t mean much, don’t affect Americans, and, in the end, are forgotten within a few days. But what’s really going on under the surface, they ignore, they suppress, and they hid.

It’s a running joke around Washington DC that Joe Biden does not know the day of the week. He shakes hands with the air. He doesn’t know which way to go off stage. Somebody writes his speeches because he is incapable of writing his own. He’s not all there, cognitively, and hasn’t been for the past 3 1/2 years. His own wife knew he suffered from Alzheimer’s, but instead of informing the American people four years ago, she forced him into running for another four years. Thankfully, that debate with Trump showed Biden to be totally incapable of remaining commander-in-chief of the United States.

Adding to the Dumpster Fire, the powers that be in that Swamp in Washington DC, decided that a cackling anchor baby fool who was chosen only because of her race and female attributes, should be president. She did not gain one single vote in the DNC voting. They simply installed her as the presidential candidate.

She did admit about how she and Biden planned everything from the same song sheet. She doesn’t have one regret for her actions for the past four years. She should apologize to the families of the 13 military personnel who died in Afghanistan because of her incompetence intertwined with General Milley’s unbelievable debacle and failure at the withdrawal.

But the Dumpster Fire that Harris-Biden created in the past 3 1/2 years has wrought extraordinary consequences to Americans that will be “BURNING” for years to come. Yet, the mainstream media hides it and suppresses any mention of it.

The FACT remains that Kamala and Mayorkas allowed over 15 million illegal aliens to violate our borders, while, at the same time, she lied to the American people that our borders were secure. Mayorkas should be tried for treason. He should be booted back to Cuba, his homeland. But, the mainstream press hid those facts. Now, we’ve got thousands of murderers, rapists, terrorists, mentally ill, illiterate, and unfit illegal aliens in our midst. We’ve got over 30 million illegal aliens leeching off our society. We’ve got drug gangs distributing drugs that have killed over 250,000 of our kids in the past three years.

Harris-Biden illegally flew over 300,000 illegal aliens into the country to dump them on towns like Springfield, Ohio, but you won’t hear about it from the mainstream media because they suppress and hide anything that would sully the current administration. Oh, and Harris-Biden continue flying them into our country at a reported 30,000 monthly. Who pays? YOU, the American taxpayer.

Undermining our country, Kamala wants to defund our police, open our borders even wider, and allow more drugs to kill more of our kids. She and that clown Walz want boys in women’s sports. They support boys in women’s bathrooms. Walz supports tampons in boys’ bathrooms. You can’t make this stuff up! It’s nuts!

What does that mean in the future? Answer: the Dumpster Fires will ignite all over the cities and towns of our country as our schools sink into the conflagration of students from over 180 countries that cannot speak our language, cannot assimilate into our customs, and become gang members, angry, pregnant, and dependent on our welfare tax dollars.

Guess what? As the Dumpster Fires spread across the land, you won’t hear a peep from “60 Minutes, Fresh Air at NPR, Rachel Maddox, The View, Scott Simon” or any of them.

As I have stated, “Mass immigration results in war with conflict delayed…but it’s coming.”

What body facilitates and supports the foundation of all this corruption besides Harris-Biden? Answer: the Unites States House of Representatives and the United States Senate. They have facilitated illegal immigration since 1986. Instead of protecting and securing our borders, they have done nothing to stop it once and for all. They refuse to apply the laws on the books like Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution. They refuse to engage U.S. Code 8, Section 1324. Instead of protecting young college girls like Laken Riley in Georgia from killer illegal aliens, they let our innocent citizens die as collateral damage.

Yet, the mainstream media won’t touch the fact that our entire financial system stands $36 trillion debt. We pay over $1.2 trillion in taxes for interest on that debt annually. What does that mean in real terms? It’s called a Faustian Bargain, where we sell our economic souls for the luxuries of the moment, but we will be forced into a Hobson’s Choice down the road. You WILL NOT like Hobson’s Choice, or at least, your children won’t because they will be forced to deal with it.

Last week, the entire school board in Chicago quit because of the chaos in that Sanctuary City where tens of thousands of illegals have pitched their tents. Hundreds of thieves steal from stores, home robberies and cargo trains in LA, San Francisco, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta because we’ve lost the “Rule of Law” across this nation. All those Sanctuary Cities beg for and receive money from the Federal Government that caused the immigration invasion. Who pays? You do! Unfortunately, money will NOT solve what’s happening to inner cities in America.

A kid can steal up to $900.00 in California and not be charged with any crime. You can steal, rape or shoot someone in NYC, and be back on the street within hours with no bail. You can sell drugs that kill, but never see a jail cell.

We’ve got women like Ilhan Omar in Minnesota as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, but she in fact, has broken our immigration laws and should be deported. As a born Somalian, she’s a perfect example of third world corruption. Will the mainstream media report on her fraud? No, they would rather go after an American citizen like Donald J. Trump.

Today, 14 states do not require a picture ID or proof of citizenship for voting for the president of the United States. With over 30 million illegal aliens in our midst, any number of those millions of illegals could actually “vote into office” their choice for our president. This kind of corruption will destroy our Constitutional Republic by our own hands.

What have I learned from my world travels? I learned that “Corruption is a mechanism by which third world countries operate.” Once it imbeds itself into the fabric of their political societies, it cannot be dislodged without a revolution where many people die in conflict. We are well on our way to becoming a third world country.

October 10, 2024

More than Hurricane Helene and Milton bear down on America with deadly force! Our country finds itself being bashed around on multiple fronts more than those two devastating storms.

First, let’s look at two of the deadliest hurricanes since Katrina. Helene punched the Southeast in the face. Milton hammered Florida to the canvas. Look at the storm surges of 15 feet and 18 inches of rain in 24 hours! You’ve got to swallow before you can wrap your mind around those kinds of reports. Incredible loss of lives, property and the ability for communities to function. Those storms took out electricity, water, roads, rails and energy sources.

So, what caused such devastating storms? Let me take you back to 1997-1998 when I spent six months at McMurdo Station in Antarctica. I reported for the Antarctic Sun Newspaper. I interviewed top scientists. They pointed to the coming nightmare of global “Catastrophic Climate Destabilization.” I wrote about it with an interview with a scientist name Mr. Rutledge. When he told me that humans’ carbon exhaust was warming the oceans that would ultimately cause horrific responses on weather patterns around the globe, I said, “Why aren’t you shouting about this situation to the world?” He replied, “I just study the phenomenon. It’s your job to report it to the world.”

Indeed, I wrote about it in my book: Antarctica: An Extreme Encounter by Frosty Wooldridge. I tried to interview on “60 Minutes…NPR…Terry Gross…Scott Simon…PBS and more.” They wouldn’t touch it. At the time, over 7.0 billion humans inhabited the planet. All of them burned fuel for energy to eat, warm their homes and travel. Humans burned over 100 million barrels of oil 24/7. They’ve been burning it at that rate since the 1990’s. In 2023, humans reached 8.0 billion. We burn millions upon millions of barrels of oil, propane, coal, wood and other fuels. The carbon exhaust runs into the billions if not trillions of pounds released into the atmosphere annually. It falls as acid rain that poisons our soils. It falls into the oceans to warm them and acidify them. It’s killing our reefs. It’s killing the ecology of the oceans. When you include the 170 trillion pieces of plastic rolling around our oceans, along with 84,000 different chemicals—-good grief, how else do you expect Mother Earth to respond?

Those storms warn the human race exactly what’s in store in the future. Everything humans do to this planet will be matched by Mother Nature in the coming years—in highly consequential catastrophic events.

Yes, the media gave us names like Global Warming. Then, Climate Change. Have we done anything to change course? Answer: virtually nothing. Instead we add 83 million new humans, net gain, annually. We surpassed 8.0 billion in 2023 on our way to 9.0 billion by 2040 or sooner.

Electric cars prove about as effective as pissing into the wind to keep dry.

To really bring this home, Florida today houses 21 million people. They remain on course to reach 40 million by 2050. If you think it’s going to get better in Florida or any state, think again. At some point in the future, we’re facing a “cluster-you know what….” of epic proportions. As a matter of fact, we stand clueless as to what’s coming. This quote by my friend, the late Dr. Albert Bartlett, professor of physics, University of Colorado says it all: “Unlimited growth cannot be sustained; you cannot sustain growth in the rates of consumption of resources. No species can overrun the carrying capacity of a finite land mass. This Law cannot be repealed and is not negotiable.”

The larger the United States’ population becomes, the greater the consequences to human life, plant life and animal life. We race blindly via mass immigration to add another 100 million people to the USA by 2050. Can you imagine what the carbon footprint will be at that time? Can you imagine what kind of hurricanes and tornados will blast our populations to smithereens?

Again, I tried to interview on “60 Minutes” and all the networks. They would rather keep the American public in the dark. They would rather see mass immigration destroy our ability to maintain a functioning civilization. Somebody is hell-bent on destroying America. And, you know something, they are succeeding.

Juxtaposed to Catastrophic Political Destabilization

Now we come to the juxtaposition of destroying our civilization by by introducing massive foreigner numbers to a point where we no longer enjoy a cohesive society. Note that we have in excess of 70 to 80 million foreign born in our country. That’s legal and illegal immigrants. Like Dr. Bartlett’s quote on sustainability, I can state unequivocally that our current sociological, ethnic diversity and cultural disenfranchisement will most certainly destroy the fabric of American society.

“No civilization can withstand the emotional, religious and cultural conflict brought about by mixing incompatible tribes, cultures, religions and world views. Such a social experiment is destroying Western Society. Such an explosive experiment can only end in conflagration, chaos and turmoil. Such deadly experiments will leave Western Societies on the verge of extinction like no war or any enemy could have done with the sword. Mass immigration equates to war with conflict delayed…but it’s coming.” Frosty Wooldridge, 2024

You cannot mix Islamic tribes who covet the Qur’an with American tribes who live by the Constitution. You cannot import terrorists and expect them to be civilized. You cannot import illiteracy and poverty, and hope it will assimilate into the mainstream. You cannot force diversity, and hope for a positive outcome. You cannot change human nature.

You can see the examples of our demise in 2024 with Hamas supporters rioting, killing, marching and demanding death to Jewish people. You can see it in Congress with Muslims like Ilhan Omar in Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib in Detroit. You can see it in NYC where immigrants speak 800 different languages. You can see it in the 250,000 drug overdose deaths in the past 3 1/2 years of the Harris-Biden administration with open borders. You can see it in the sheer numbers of over 15 million illegal alien migrants who have invaded our country at the hands of our own president and vice president.

If you don’t think America faces its own Armageddon, think again.

It’s beyond my rational mind to understand that our President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Homeland Security Chief Mayorkas and Congress have spent over $150 billion on distributing illegal aliens across America and caring for their welfare in the past 3 1/2 years, BUT when it comes to rescuing our own American citizens from the disaster of Hurricane Helene along much of the East Coast—we’re out of money.

It’s beyond my comprehension that our Congress imported 125,000 illiterate Somalians into Minneapolis, Minnesota, only to watch them defraud our welfare EBT food stamp system of $200 million while electing Ilhan Omar, a devout Muslim who follows only Sharia Law of the Qur’an—- to our United States Congress. She hates Jews, she despises our Constitution, she defrauded our immigration laws by marrying her brother to bring him here, and she openly does everything she can to undermine the American people. Her citizenship should be revoked and she should be deported to Somalia.

After 3 1/2 years of inviting over 15 million illegal aliens into our country, it astounds me that Joe Biden, under cover of darkness and total illegality, has flown over 320,000 illegal aliens into airports across the country to dump those illegal aliens into our country at our cost. He’s resumed that program that dumps 15,000 to 20,000 illegal aliens onto towns like Springfield, Ohio. If that’s not treason, I don’t know what is! Additionally, throughout his treasonous presidency and vacuous five decades in Congress, he told reporters over the weekend that Kamala Harris and he play from the same song sheet. In other words, they’re both undermining the laws of our Constitution in concert.

Then you look at Detroit’s Squad Member Rashida Talaib, a devout Palestinian Muslim, who wrapped herself in the Palestinian flag upon being elected, denouncing Israel, and calling for all Muslims to support Hamas. How anti-American can you get? She needs to be stripped of her citizenship and deported to Iran to get a taste of what it’s like under Sharia Law as to treatment of women. Maybe she could experience FGM and/or become one of the 20,000 annual honor killings in the Muslim world, because she’s too outspoken for a woman. Muslims want their women to be shrouded in a Burka physically or emotionally.

Does anyone understand that legal and illegal immigration destroys the fabric of our American culture? If not, why not? What more proof do we need as we watch American Muslim Hamas supporters tearing at the foundation of our country? They’re defacing statues of President George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin. If given a chance and their growing numbers, those Hamas Muslims would destroy our society. They mean to tear down the structure and the very essence of our Constitutional Republic. Are our elected leaders THAT stupid?

What astounds this journalist stems from the fact that our own governors and mayors vote for Sanctuary Cities to protect lawbreakers. Then, once overwhelmed by 45,000 illegal aliens in Denver, Mayor Johnston wants U.S. taxpayers to pay for their care. Ironically, we suffered 10,000 homeless in Denver for the past 10 years. Now, we face 45,000 illegals in our streets, and our own 10,000 to equal 55,000 homeless. If Harris and Walz reach the White House, that number could/will very well DOUBLE to 110,000 homeless. What do we do then?

It’s like we’re in a race by half of Congress, and all those who support Harris-Walz to see how fast they can destroy America. Does anyone think we’re going to survive another 15 to 20 million more illegals from 2025 to 2029 with Harris in the White House? Do you?

What about the lands of America? What about the desecration of our culture? What about the very essence of being an American citizen?

As I traveled across America this past summer, it’s beyond sickening to see our lands littered with every form of trash, junk, hazardous materials and worse. Aldo Leopold said, “Conservation is getting nowhere because it is incompatible with our Abrahamic concept of land. We abuse land because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us. When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.” With any kind of respect, we need to outlaw Monsanto and all other chemical and GMO companies poisoning the good earth.

At some point, we need a national glass, plastic, and can deposit-return law at 50 cents a container. It’s the ONLY way we will ever stop tossing trillions of metal, plastic and glass containers onto the land. I estimate at least 10 million car carcasses left in the woods to rust in all 50 states. Another 10 million tractors and farm equipment pieces have been left to degrade over the next 1 billion years. It’s embarrassing that our fast food industry does little to police the millions of plastic bags, plastic cups and pizza boxes that litter every mile of most roads across America. We need to teach our young to respect the land, to respect their responsibility to the land, and to pick it up when they see it spewed across highways.

How about the desecration of our culture? What do you think is happening as we import tens of millions from 180 different countries/cultures/languages from around the world, illegally? Do you honestly think they will absorb and/or contribute to our civilization? At what point do their numbers overwhelm our numbers, so much so, we become strangers in our own land? That’s already happening in cities like Miami, NYC, LA, San Francisco, Chicago and Denver.

With in excess of 30 to 40 million illegal aliens in our country, what is the value of United States citizenship in the eyes of Harris-Biden, Congress and all of our sanctuary city governors, mayors and city councils? What happens when they out-vote us? What happens when they decide our elections? What happens when they turn our country into little Haiti’s that become larger Haiti’s inside our country? Just one look at the weekend “kill rate” in Chicago or New Orleans should give you an idea that we’re already in deep trouble.

Finally, where are we headed? Let’s face it, you’ve been watching the news as to the massive war coming with Iran-Israel-Lebanon-Yemen. Do you notice that incompatible religions simply war against each other until one wins and the other suffers slaughtering? Do you think we’ll be able to stop Muslim conflict breaking out in America? Let’s face it; Muslims provoke war to establish Sharia Law wherever they land. Sharia Law is deadly to all living beings. Europe today has condemned itself to eternal Islamic decay. Canada, too. In fact, yes, America, too. We’re too damned stupid, apathetic and uninvolved to see it coming. Europe didn’t see it coming, but it’s upon them like the Bubonic Plague, and Islam is devouring Europe.

If Harris-Walz reach the White House, all Americans of every color, creed and ethnic group are in for one hell of a nasty ride.

October 2, 2024

It’s been one heck of a journey from 1965 to 2024. As a reporter for the largest college newspaper in the world at 44,000 copies daily at the Michigan State News, I interviewed top professors, activists, and wrote commentaries about the Vietnam War. At the time, being a service brat, I thought presidents and our U.S. Congress offered the finest men and women to guide our country. I thought truth, justice and the American way were the hallmarks that made our country Great. I thought that, “Father Knows Best” and “Leave it to Beaver” were the standard for American families. I was proud to be the son of a WWII veteran U.S. Marine. Boy, was I in for a surprise.

Instead, the Military Industrial Complex’s corporate heads had different plans for my life as they created the Korean War, and the Vietnam War to make profits while they killed 33,000 and 58,479 innocent kids. They wounded over 150,000 kids, brought drugs to America, and created P.T.S.D. that ruined tens of thousands of innocent lives. You can bet that those money mongers could care less about one single military life shed in Vietnam. When I ran through Boot Camp at Fort Benning, Georgia, U.S. Army “Queen of Battle” Infantry in 1968, I KNEW i was a walking dead man. In war, it makes little difference if you’re tall, short, fat, lean, educated, or stupid–if a bullet has your name on it, you’re done. And, in the end, nobody cares other than your family. Sobering stuff for a 20 year old kid trying to become the first college graduate in his family clan out of LeRoy, Michigan, population 500 farmers.

After I survived the U.S. Army and the Vietnam War, which I am proud that I served because I DO believe in America, I taught in the inner city. Wow, what a drastic change from the “Father Knows Best” fantasy family life protrayed on television! Detroit is a teacher’s nightmare. illiteracy, incest, violence, drugs and horrible inner-city misery prevailed, American Blacks may be victims, or they may be perpetrators of their own problems because of their cultural inclinations brought to America from Africa. “Don’t be like Whitey,” they chant in their gangs. I found that tribalism of Africa does not fit the White Man’s cultural laws of democracy. Mixing two incredibly different cultures has been America’s greatest failure and nightmare. Or, it’s simply impossible to mix drastically different races and cultures. We’re seeing the problems surface in 2024 even worse than 1965. Blacks like P. Diddy Combs give all of us pause as to racial differences. He is a violent, sick and perverted human animal. But then, you’ve got movie mogul Weinstein drugging and raping women until he, too, got caught.

But then you look at the way Muslims treat their women, and you get sick to your stomach because Islam is a violent religion that promises its brutes 72 virgins in the afterlife. The fact is,It makes you want to give up on the human race. America might find itself sending more U.S. kids into the Middle East to die in the name of “what”, I don’t know.

As I sit here in America, we’ve got an Alzheimer’s President Biden who thinks that trans men should compete in woman’s sports. That’s as stupid and disgusting as Muslims not allowing their women to ride a bicycle or drive a car. Not to mention female genital mutilation and honor killings. Can’t wait to see what happens when Congress ships another 10 million of those religious savages into our country.

Same with Springfield, Ohio. Whose bright idea was that? Why did they sen 15,000 illiterate Haitians into a tiny 60,000 person midwestern white town? It shows you that those people in Congress valid Mark Twain’s sage words, “Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”

Then we’ve got an anchor baby presidential candidate in Kamala whose parents are Indian and Jamaican, but were not citizens when they birthed her. Plus, her father is a Marxist, and she’s made of the same cloth. Not only that, she was picked for VP because of being a “Black woman”, who did not possess any other credentials for being VP. Ironically, she’s done nothing of merit, but invited over 15 million illegal aliens into America a against her oath of office and against our laws. That’s called Treason. But because she’s a “black woman”, she is exempt. Also, during her tenure as VP, 92 percent of her staff have quit in disgust of her behavior. Should give you an idea of what we’re in for if she hits the White House.

Then you think of the consequences of Kamala’s open borders: A mind numbing 250,000 fentanyl overdose deaths.Not motion 500,000 convicted criminals

Also, if Tim Walz gets into power, we’ll have women’s tampons in every men’s bathroom so trans men can use them to swab their rear ends or whatever those mentally ill dudes do to themselves.

God help us from ourselves.

September 30, 2024

In the past week, U.S. Border Patrol agents and Immigration, Customs, Enforcement (ICE), informed the American people that Kamala Harris and Joe Biden allowed 435,431 convicted felons, non-citizens to enter America without pause or investigation of their profiles. Take a deep breath. Take that into your mind.

Kamala allowed/invited another 13,099 convicted murderers to enter the United States without so much as an ankle bracelet. She invited another 25,272 sexual assault rapists from dozens of countries…into our country. She allowed another 15,800 convicted rapists, non-citizens into America. A mind numbing 30,000 criminals of all kinds were allowed into America. The report stated that 1.9 million illegal alien non-citizens were “got-aways” who never reported to the Border Patrol, but escaped into America. Some 300,000 minors were brought into America, but no one knows where they landed. Virtually NONE of the 13,000,000 illegal aliens that entered our country illegally in the past 3 1/2 years, and reported by the U.S. Border Patrol, gave a valid ID as to their birth dates, place of birth or country.

“There is no greater act of disloyalty for Kamala Harris than to destroy her own country’s sovereignty [on purpose].” -Donald J. Trump.

And yet, half the country’s voters will vote for a woman who has accomplished/invited/allowed the greatest invasion of our country or any country in the history of the world. If you don’t think 13 million plus illegal border hoppers aren’t part of an invasion, what do you call it? On social media, “You cannot reason with people who believe the woman (Kamala) who has done nothing in 3 1/2 years is suddenly capable of fixing everything in the world.”

Then you look at “Sanctuary States and Cities” democrat mayors and governors who procure their citizens’ tax dollars to house, feed, warm, transport, educate and birth their illegal anchor babies. “Name one country, just one, that taxes their people and sends the money to the United States…I’ll wait for your answer.”

Then you have to ask yourself, how in the name of rational thinking and common sense with a touch of ethics did Jill Biden allow her dementia-ridden husband to continue toward the White House? How in the name of sanity did she try to have him run for a second term when she knew he suffered from accelerating Alzheimer’s Disease? Why did his closest advisors remain silent? Why did Kamala continue the facade? Does treason come to mind? We’re talking about a man who has the nuclear codes, but doesn’t know what day of the week it is! A quote on social media, “Kamala is twice the stupidity without dementia.”

Who in their right mind would vote for Kamala when she is responsible for countless tons of fentanyl and other drugs that flow across our borders like the Colorado River in reverse? I mean, she’s responsible for over 250,000 drug overdose deaths. She could have stopped the flow of drugs with the simple stroke of a pen. She simply needed to uphold the laws on the books. Instead, she acted like a runaway drug store supervisor who dispensed those drugs to everyone! Do you think the parents of all those dead kids are going to vote for her? What about the parents of the next 250,000 drug-overdosed kids who die if Kamala reaches the White House? I’ll give you a 10 to 1 bet that she will open our borders to another 13 million more illegals if she enjoys four years in the White House.

“Before we ask what is fair to illegal immigrants, we must ask what is fair to American families, students and taxpayers.” Donald J. Trump

Why do democrats put illegal aliens first and American citizens last? Why don’t all those democrats open their homes to the 13 million illegal aliens that they supported to break into our country? Why don’t those Sanctuary Cities let their citizens give those millions of illegals a spare room and food?

Do you see the duplicity?

After Oprah Winfrey interviewed Kamala Harris, you could see the look on Oprah’s face and what was spinning in her mind, “Oh my God, Biden is smarter than her!”

If Kamala reaches the White House, China will invade Taiwan. Israel will be wiped off the face of the planet, and Putin will blow Ukraine to pieces. Kamala, who lacks any understanding of economics, will wreak havoc on the American consumer. In simple terms, she’s a woman who has jumped into the 12 foot deep end of a pool, but has no idea of how to swim. Worse, there are no lifeguards to save her.

Kamala’s father was a prominent Marxist Professor named Donald Harris who wrote the book on Modern Day Marxism. You’ve heard the phrase, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” Well, when your parents brainwash you into thinking Marxism stands as the answer, it’s virtually impossible to change that kind of programming.

Remember when she said, “I haven’t changed my values.” You can be certain of everything she said about “defunding the police…abolishing ICE…tearing down the border wall…price controls…allowing illegals to gain citizenship…ad nauseum,” she will employ if she reaches the White House.

So, you better ask yourself if you want your neighborhood to become loaded with 20 thousand Haitians or Somalians or Congolese or Sudanese or Iraqis or Turks or Egyptians or another hundred ethnic groups living on welfare like Springfield, Illinois? You might want to ask yourself if you want countless Middle Eastern Muslims to be chanting, “Death to America” at their rallies in favor of Hamas slaughtering Jewish women and children. You might ask yourself if you want your kids to be introduced to fentanyl. How would you like your children’s classrooms filled with really low IQ’d third world immigrants who will totally degrade your children’s education to a point where they too, become functionally illiterate.

You might ask yourself if you want Kamala to support “Defund the Police” like she stated in 2020 as Minneapolis, Minnesota burned to the ground. She supported lawlessness, and defended it, and stated that it should continue.

If Kamala Harris reaches the White House, the majority of Americans who voted her into our most sacred office will find that they were the dumbest, utterly stupidest, and brainwashed people on the planet. They will discover that NBC, CBS, ABC, NPR, PBS, MSNBC, Joy Reid, Joe Scarborough, Jake Tapper, et al., and the rest of the biased media will have led Americans over a cultural, demographic, linguistic, religious and world view cliff. Once we go over that “cliff”, there will be no parachutes to save us.

I know that most American citizens are not prepared for the future that is screaming toward them by their own hand.

If you don’t think so, read my book: America’s Overpopulation Predicament: Blindsiding Future Generations by Frosty Wooldridge. That book will graphically and factually show you that our civilization cannot and will not survive this massive immigrant invasion.

Answer: PLENTY!

It’s almost beyond comprehension that the Harris-Biden administration has betrayed the American people on a level of criminal intent beyond understanding. They have violated Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution everyday for the past 3 1/2 years. They have violated our U.S. Code 8, Section 1324. Our U.S. Congress has let Harris-Biden get away with violating our laws, our rights, our citizenship and our sovereignty.

In the process, they’ve gotten over 250,000 Americans killed with drugs coming over the border via Mexican cartels that care little about human life. Ask the parents of all those dead kids how they feel about open borders into the USA.

Harris-Biden killed the University of Georgia student Laken Riley and hundreds, if not thousands of American victims as to murder, rapes, drug deaths, drunk driving deaths and worse. Harris-Biden killed 13 of our finest military personnel in the incompetent, absurd and deadly exit from Afghanistan. General Milley commanded the largest military debacle in U.S. history. Yet, no one paid any price or demotion for that fiasco. VP Harris smiled at the reporter when she said she was satisfied with her part of the withdrawl. She was the last person in the room with Biden when he called for the withdrawal. Ask anyone of the parents of those 13 kids who Harris-Biden got killed.

An invasion like no other in history.

What do you mean? Answer: self-inflicted by Harris-Biden. At no time in history has one country absorbed over 15 million to as high as 21 million illegal migrants in a 45 month period. Harris and Biden do not hold or honor America as a sovereign state. They have abolished our entire southern and northern borders.

If you break into most countries unlawfully, they arrest you, some countries shoot you, and others slap you into prison. Under Harris-Biden over 15 to 21 million illegal aliens receive taxpayer housing, food, schools, medical care and transportation.

Places like Denver, Colorado have been overwhelmed with 45,000 illegals. They steal, rob, shoplift, and form gangs to terrorize citizens. Springfield, Ohio features a nightmarish 15,000 illegals destroying the fabric of their city into lawlesses, chaos and death.

What do we do with 15 million illegal aliens? What’s the purpose of Harris-Biden’s engineered invasion of our country? Do they want to destabilize our country beyond solving our own problems which are epic? How are we to contain Muslim immigrants who chant, “Death to America” when their numbers grow to greater numbers than our own citizens? Have you visited Detroit, Michigan or NYC? They are no longer American cities. Over 800 languages are spoken in NYC. How will that kind of linguistic chaos play out? Answer: not well.

Have you seen the 500,000 homeless in America? How do you solve their plight? Why would you import an added 15 million homeless on top of our own homeless? What kind of solutions does Harris have for that nightmare? What if she gains the White House? What if she succeeds in her call to “Defund the Police” and “Reimagine the Border Patrol” to fit her needs to destroy our sovereignty?

Point blank: Kamala Harris stands clueless as to geopolitical gamesmanship. She’s not only ill equipped, but blatantly incompetent to deal with Putin, Ung of North Korea or the leader of China. Those boys will eat her for breakfast.

As to economics, she is barking down the wrong road with “price controls.” Don’t work! Never have worked! Can’t work!

It’s almost beyond astounding that all democrats will vote for her when, eight weeks ago, they were terrified that Biden might die, and she would become the new president. The fact is, Biden has been the most corrupt and incompetent president in modern history. He has suffered from Alzheimer’s for over four years. His wife knew it, but lusted for power, and covered it up. Kamala knew it, but kept it hidden. Biden’s inner circle knows it, but they, too, cling to power.

No question that if Kamala gains the White House, she brings Governor Walz from Minnesota with her. He’s the man that lied about his military career. He told reporters that he doesn’t respect our sovereignty as a nation. He told a reporter that he does not honor America’s borders and that if Trump built a 25 foot wall, Walz would invest in a 30 foot ladder company to have illegal aliens breach that wall. Walz allowed 125,000 of his Somalian immigrants to steal $200,000,000.00 in EBT card fraud, and, get this, he didn’t press charges because he didn’t want to appear “racist.”

Then, the insanity of “transgenders” men being able to compete against DNA women must be the most incredibly insane aspect of modern day America. Yet, Kamala wants to give transgender surgeries to criminals in prisons. We already pay an average of $65,000.00 per criminal in our prisons, annually, and she wants to give them taxpayer surgeries to cut them up and turn them into physically and mentally deformed freaks. None of it makes sense, but it makes sense to Kamala Harris. Which shows you that she, too, suffers from a few loose screws in her brain.

America Becoming a Criminal-Dominated Country

The more Harris-Biden continue importing criminals, the more our country becomes a society of chaos, lawlessness and conflict. Note this headline:

“It’s chaos as vast hordes of criminals literally Rule the streets in major cities all over America”
09-23-2024 • https://theeconomiccollapseblog.com, By Michael

“As you will see later in this article, law enforcement authorities in Chicago have completely lost control of the Windy City, and a major gang war could erupt at any time. But of course it isn’t just Chicago that has descended into a state of complete and utter chaos. In Los Angeles, a horde of approximately 50 young criminals ruthlessly looted a 7-Eleven on Friday evening…A group of about 50 juveniles on bikes ransacked a 7-Eleven in Pico-Robertson on Friday evening, the latest in a string of recent robberies targeting the convenience chain,” authorities said.

Here is a letter from a reader that defines our future if we continue on this massive immigration invasion path:

Hi Frosty,

Thanks for this important article. I live 25 miles from Springfield, Ohio. I worked at a travel agency in Dayton, OH around 1975.

We would send travelers anywhere on the planet, EXCEPT Haiti!!! Feel free to mention that in your articles.

On travel.state.gov website it shows a travel advisory to Haiti as a Level 4 & warns DO NOT TRAVEL.

It’s due to kidnapping, crime, civil unrest, & limited health care. So why would the USA bring them here?

Such lies in believing somehow these 3rd world animals will behave like civilized persons. It has traumatic consequences on every city they invade. So glad you see them for what’s really happening.

On November 5, 2024, it’s up to intelligent, rational, and informed citizens to vote for a president that actually puts Americans first.

September 23, 224

The spokesman for the 15,000 Haitians who have invaded Springfield, Ohio, population 58,000, via the Biden-Harris illegal alien invasion policy/presidency, said, “America should be an open country for everybody in the world.”

Here’s the catch: on Earth Day 1970, the human race on planet Earth stood at 3.5 billion people. At the time, human overpopulation stood as THE single greatest crisis facing humanity. Too many humans spelled disaster as to our climate, the Sixth Species Extinction Session, poisoned oceans, crammed cities, lowered quality of life, plastics beginning to pollute land and sea…and a litany of consequences accelerating upon the human race.

At the time of Earth Day, First World countries heeded the call to birth control by birthing 2.03 babies per woman, on average, throughout Canada, America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, et al. However, Third World countries continued their prolific birth rates in Africa, Asia, Indochina, South America, and beyond. They jumped the human population from 3.5 billion up to 8.1 billion by 2023. That’s a 4.6 billion person increase. Why anyone pretends that we’re still honoring “Earth Day” must be the greatest irony/joke of the 21st century. As reported by National Public Radio’s Scott Simon, we’ve dumped 170 trillion pieces of plastic into all the Earth’s oceans over the past 60 years. An international deposit-return law would have solved it, but humans are too busy killing each other in wars.

At the current birth rate of Third World women, they add 83,000,000 (million) more babies, net gain, annually. India out-birthed China to become the most populated country in the world at 1.44 billion. China hit 1.4 billion. Even with one child per woman, China still adds 8,000,000 babies, net gain, annually via “population momentum.” India adds 16 million people, net gain annually.

Note that their quality of life sets the benchmark for the human misery index, water purity sinks into the toilet, and air quality causes lung cancers, poisoned soils and global climate change. Indians and Chinese chain-migrate into America by the millions to escape their misery in those two countries.

Places like Bangladesh house 170,000,000 (million) people in a landmass the size of Ohio. The United Nations projects that they will reach 203,000,000 (million) by 2050. That’s an increase of 33 million. That’s 26 years from now. Bet you can’t wait to open your doors to welcome them to your community. (Source: https://www.populationpyramid.net/egypt/2050/)

Egypt in 2024 houses 117,000,000 (million) people, but at current birth rates, expects to reach 160,000,000 (million) by 2050. That’s an increase of 43 million more people. Note they must import 80 percent of their food in 2024. (Source: https://www.populationpyramid.net/egypt/2050/)

By the way, Haiti houses 12 million people, on their way to 15 million people by 2050. As you can imagine, they would love to send their excess humans to your town just like Springfield, Ohio, because we must “Open up America to everybody in the world.”

This commentary could cover another 100 Third World countries with similar growth rates (because of their customs or religions or their illiteracy rates that won’t allow birth control). That adds up to 83,000,000 (million) new babies, net gain, annually. Those countries will add another 1 billion to as high as 2 billion new people to the world by 2050. Give or take 10 or 20 years!

Therefore, if America, Canada, Europe and Australia keep “opening their doors to everybody in the world”, every First World country that chose NOT to become overpopulated, would, indeed, become horrifically overpopulated.

In 2010, one guy named Joel Kotkin wrote a book, The Next 100 Million: America in 2050, supporting America housing another 100,000,000 (million) people. He wanted to jump us from 350 million to 450 million people. I wrote his website telling him what an intellectual idiot, fool, moron and dufus he was for such a stupid, inane, ridiculous and absurd thesis. I had already traveled to all those countries where peoples’ lives were horribly degraded. I told him that we don’t have the water, energy and resources to maintain such a horrific amount of people.

The most distressing book in America shows we don’t have the resources to support another 100 million people: Blip: Humanity’s Self-Terminating Experiment with Industrialism by Christopher O. Clugston. He’s brilliant and we’ve been colleagues for over 20 years. His book shows how we are on the verge of running out of all the metals, minerals, water, and energy to support our massive industrial nations. He predicts total exhaustion of those resources by 2050, give or take a decade. To tell you the truth, during our last conversation, he said he was too optimistic about 2050. It’s going to get really ugly by 2040.

“Unlimited growth cannot be sustained; you cannot sustain growth in the rates of consumption of resources. No species can overrun the carrying capacity of a finite landmass. This Law cannot be repealed and is not negotiable.” Dr. Albert Bartlett, University of Colorado.

Clugston isn’t the only one. You may read another 10 books on our overrunning and exhausting our water supplies. We face the end of The Age of Oil. We’re destroying our oceans with 170 trillion pieces of plastic. We face the Sixth Extinction Session that is causing the loss of thousands of plant and animal species.

This column could give you 20 terribly sobering if not frightening quotes from the top minds in the world. This one should sober you: “If present growth trends in population, industrialization, pollution, extinction rates, food production and resource depletion continue unchanged, the limits to growth will be reached sometime in the next 100 years.” The Club of Rome 1972, with 1,600 signatures from top environmental scientists.

Therefore, when you hear that Haitian spokesperson in Springfield, Ohio tell the American people that we need to “open America to the world,” what he’s actually saying is, “Let us immigrate-overpopulate America just like Haiti, so Americans can become just as miserable as the rest of the Third World’s poor, illiterate, polluted, overcrowded, miserable and starving masses.”

To sum up this Biden-Harris immigration invasion dilemma, do you think either of those two individuals or their handlers, possess any idea of what they are bequeathing upon anyone living in America in 2050?

Do you want this projection for your kids? “Most Western elites continue urging the wealthy West not to stem the migrant tide that adds 80 million people, net gain, annually to the planet, but to absorb our global brothers and sisters until their horrid ordeal has been endured and shared by all–ten billion humans packed onto an ecologically devastated planet.” Dr. Otis Graham, Unguarded Gates

Finally, ask the people of Springfield, Ohio what they think?

Our own Harris-Biden government works to destroy the fabric of our society! In fact, those two are dead set on destroying America.

In 1860, Mark Twain said the lie of ‘silent-assertion’ finds politicians, media and religious groups, “Obfuscating, clouding, denying, suppressing and/or ignoring a social wrong or something in between.”

My Canadian Journalist friend Tim Murray said, “I came upon an orchestration, the environmental movement, and all the musicians were playing violins to the tune of “Overconsumption, overconsumption, overconsumption.” They refused to play any other tune or use any other instrument to compliment that narrow repertoire. Apparently, some corporate donors were paying them to be a one-trick pony.”

WILFUL IGNORANCE IS THE BEDROCK OF DENIALISM

My longtime friend at the University of Colorado, Albert Bartlett once spoke about Mark Twain’s “silent lie”. It refers to the habit of lying but not revealing the truth. If I know that someone has planted a bomb in the local subway, but I chose not to share that information with the authorities, by Twain’s definition, I am a liar. But when the information that I withhold is of critical importance to our lives or the lives of innocents, then I am more than a liar. I am criminally negligent. Such is the case with many politicians and environmental leaders. They know that we are facing economic collapse from dwindling oil supplies and ecological Armageddon from over-population, soil degradation, overtaxed aquifers and species loss, but they choose to shield the public from the truth.

What We’re Seeing Today with The Liberal Media Equates to the Highest Rendition of “Silent Assertion.”

None of the mainstream media will educate the American people as to the consequences of Biden-Harris dumping 15 to 21 million illegal migrants into the guts of America within four years, and possibly another 21 million if Harris wins the White House. If you think Springfield, Ohio represents a growing nightmare, just wait until your city becomes yet another Springfield, Ohio!

Several reasons have been advanced to account for their silence. One is ideological. The syncretistic blend of “New” Left thinking, feminism, cultural relativism, xenophilia and political correctness, sometimes bundled under the rubric of “cultural Marxism” has been a proven reality filter. The stark fact that there is not “enough to go around”, that we are already in overshoot, cannot be acknowledged by ideologues who view the present through the prism of an antique social justice agenda. Their focus is not on stopping growth, by managing and deflecting it. It is not on acknowledging limits, but ‘growing’ them with more efficient use of resources by land use strategies, pie-in-the-sky technologies and Spartan living habits.

And it is not about family planning to cap population growth, but granting women reproductive choices even if those choices result in unsustainable growth. For the growth management syndicate there is never a “long-age” of people but a shortage of food. A shortage that can be cured by perpetual foreign aid, political reform or fair and efficient distribution. The notion that modern agriculture will collapse with the demise of fossil fuels or that organic farming or “re-localization” cannot sustain 8 billion people is beyond their comprehension.

There is another more mercenary reason for population myopia and green silence, however. Simply put, political parties and mainstream environmental NGOs, for the most part, are paid “not to understand”. Organizations like the Sierra Club, Conservation International, Nature Conservancy and the David Suzuki Foundation, accept corporate money. Some even permit corporate representatives to hold directorships. This comes at a price. What are corporations, and particularly financial institutions all about? Growth and Debt, which go together like a horse and carriage. An apt simile for the post-carbon future that looms around the corner. So we shall have growth, but it shall be painted green. Voila. “Smart” growth. Smart growth or dumb growth all equal the same result: a first class ticket on the U.S.S. Titanic- America. American citizens are not prepared for what’s coming with an added 100 million people.

But most importantly, corporations crave the certification of social responsibility that environmental organizations can give them. In the 1990s big business felt the winds of change. Environmentalism had gone mainstream. It became evident that opposing the public mood was not a wise business strategy. So rather than war with environmental organizations, it proved commercially advantageous to jump on their bandwagon. If they could gain the environmental seal of approval in exchange for acquiescence to growth, they could proceed with business-as-usual.

But this fact raises a more fundamental issue. Proof of this corporate infiltration is available by the mere perusal of their financial reports. So why aren’t the members of environmental NGOs doing their homework? Why do people who would conduct a title search or home inspection when they buy a house, or scrutinize the financial report of their union or strata council, or make the purchase of a car subject to a mechanical inspection not care to apply the same rigor and due diligence to the environmental organizations they support?

Why don’t they care to know who is paying the piper? And why do they rely upon the filtered, spoon-fed news that these green organizations dispense rather than do their own research? Why do they delegate their thinking to these kept women of corporate duplicity, their chosen gatekeepers of knowledge?

Are people lax, indolent and ignorant? The mainstream media makes sure they remain clueless. Despite numerous opportunities, I have chosen to be ignorant about the workings of my car, or how to trouble-shoot my computer problems, or even how to fill in my own income tax form. But like other people, I address many areas of my life with earnest curiosity. Many of us effect great interest in proper nutrition, effective exercise, better gardening, shrewd shopping and a host of hobbies and interests.

But we are deliberately oblivious to those societal issues which threaten our collective survival. Many adopt the posture of “positive thinking” —the willful ignorance of the blatantly obvious. Like those who persisted in playing cards while the Titanic listed, they whistle past the graveyard of a civilization that edges closer to the cliff. The writing is on the wall, but they choose not to read it.

While the media collaborates with their self-imposed stupefaction, it only panders to their appetite for escape. There is an insatiable market for denial and self-indulgence. Even news must be entertaining. We are transfixed by stock market quotations, economic indices, sporting events and movie star divorces, but bored with the end of the world as we know it. Of those who read, it is murder mysteries, horror stories, romance novels, tales of the supernatural and pop psychology that seem to command interest.

We are literally amusing ourselves to death. Even those nations with democratic levers are captive of an ecologically illiterate electorate. Everywhere we are oppressed by the coalition of the uniformed, who consist of, in the words of Tasmania’s Peter Bright, “People who don’t think, and who don’t want to think; people who don’t know—and who don’t want to know; and those who don’t care, and don’t want to care.”

The American public stands eyeball deep in fatal flaw. Unfit and undeserving of a better fate than that which awaits us like a black-hooded executioner beside his chopping block, axe in hand. Poetic justice for the architects of the Sixth Extinction Session, a species that despite its vaunted intelligence, continues to undercut its own life support system like a cannibal feeding off his own limbs. The fossil record is full of failed models like ours. A Greek tragedy in the making.

If you understand what I am trying to convey in this commentary, please take action to stop mass immigration into America. Your children’s lives depend on it…and/or anyone living in America in 2050.

Part 5: This is what’s coming to America, and it ain’t pretty.

“It takes a special kind of stupid to want to repeat the last four yours under Biden-Harris by electing Harris, again,” said Bugs Bunny.

Daffy Duck said, “Harris gave us inflation, invasion, and incompetence…now she wants to complete her quest to destabilize, tribalize and dissolve America.”

John Wayne said, “Life is tough; it’s even tougher if you’re stupid.”

With a second attempt on President Donald J. Trump’s life on Sunday, we’re getting a taste of the destabilization of America. Biden-Harris imported over 15 million illegal aliens in the past 3 ½ years. A breakdown on national news showed 200,000 of them from China. Tens of thousands of them from the Middle East.

You cannot help but appreciate that Muslims have been fighting and killing one another since the 6th century. They follow the most violent religion on earth. They carry a “world view” of “Convert or kill all non-believers.” The Chinese “world view” remains one of dictators, emperors and the supremacy of their culture.

So, let’s bring them into America! Let’s unload/dump all these incompatible cultures, ways of life, and languages onto America. They arrive here from countries where all governance comes from the top/down. America was the first country in the world where the citizens vote leaders into positions from the bottom up. But you better believe that huge money/power interests want to control from the top/down.

The latest book showing their intentions: According To Plan: The Elites’ Secret Plan to Sabotage America by Kevin Freeman

Another book shows it already happened to Europe: The Strange Death of Europe by Douglas Murray.

Those are not the only books predicting our future. And yet, half of all eligible Americans are too lazy to vote in the coming presidential election.

We Are Allowing America To Be Destabilized With Mass Immigration

If we allow continued mass legal and illegal immigration, we march along the same path that has befallen Springfield, Ohio, a sleepy town of 58,000 Americans. Today, Biden-Harris dumped 15,000 Haitian illegal aliens onto that town. Its schools are in total meltdown. Its streets are unsafe. One local was killed recently just taking out her trash. Those 15,000 illiterate Haitians lack skills, education, knowledge and any affinity to our way of life. Their culture is one of violence, poverty and illiteracy. If you look at Haiti, you can see that they lack any ability to maintain a civil society. So, let’s just ship another 15,000 of them to every small town in America. They would love to live here with free housing, food, transport, schools and medical care.

Or, let’s look at 300,000 Syrian “Death to America” Muslim immigrants in Detroit, Michigan. Over 90 percent remain on welfare after 10 years. Their goal remains the same to install Sharia Law, which, if you didn’t know, is violent, obscene, ugly and top/down by its religious leaders. The Qur’an dictates total submission to its savage philosophy. In other words, no freedom of personal choice on any level. Talk about destabilizing America!

Let’s look at Minneapolis, Minnesota’s 125,000 Somalian immigrants that trashed their schools, live on welfare, lack any academic thrust, adhere to Sharia Law, and lack any affinity to the U.S. Constitution. They used their tribal cunning to scam $200 million in EBT card money before they were caught.

Out here in Denver, Colorado, we’ve got Venezuelan gangs distributing drugs, shooting up apartment buildings, openly defying our laws and our police. Denverites flee their apartments with those thugs’ growing numbers.

Can you imagine striking up a friendly conversation with any of these incompatible, totally alien immigrants? What would they have in common with you or you have in common with them? Answer: NOTHING!

In that same report, it stated that 4,000,000 Mexican illegals roam our country. (Source: The report was on FoxNews by Brian Kilmeade over the past weekend, September 14, 2024.) They do not adhere to our laws. They commit every kind of crime carried on the books. Our citizens suffer death on the highways, robberies, rapes, drug overdoses, trashed schools and a complete “destabilizing” of our civil society.

With Biden-Harris’ open borders, our own leaders violate our laws, blatantly and, with a new “top/down” power that, “We the people and our Constitution” don’t matter.

What if you and/or a loved one are affected by the 250,000 drug fentanyl overdose deaths in the past three years? That’s a lot of mothers and fathers who lost their kids via Biden-Harris’ open border policy. What if Harris gained the White House and allowed another 250,000 drug overdoses? That’s criminal, but Biden-Harris haven‘t answered for it. How do you like it that Biden-Harris have totally and completely wrecked the U.S. Constitution, and that lady wants to win the White House so she can commit this country to four more years of open borders? Four more years of thousands of young people dying from drug overdoses! We’re talking, NUTS! But half of Americans support her and will vote for her. As John Wayne said, “Life is tough; it’s even tougher if you’re stupid.”

At what point do we import millions of more legal and illegal immigrants that cannot and do not subscribe to the U.S. Constitution before we see even more violence in our cities? How many more Hamas terrorists do we want roaming our college campuses in defiance of our laws. At some point, our police will not be able to handle the enormous numbers of immigrants who hate America. Do you want to see Palestinian and/or Hamas flags to continue to dominate the news?

As Kevin Freeman describes in his book, According To Plan, we’ve got some high-powered elites who hate this country built on, “We the people.” They want to be the new “We the controllers.”

They support Kamala Harris because she really doesn’t know what’s she’s doing. She possesses NO grasp of economics, or geopolitical intrigues, no understanding of race relations, no comprehension of education…in effect, she’s the perfect “affirmative action or D.E.I.” candidate. Totally unqualified!

For anyone who reads this commentary and thinks we’ve got to save the world’s poor and homeless, please understand that I have traveled across six continents on a bicycle to “see” what I am talking about. As the third world adds 83 million more desperate people, net gain, annually, we can’t save them. But we can, and at this time, we ARE killing our country by following this insane immigration path. We’re already facing a future where we can’t sustain the 350 million already here. Just watch when our resources are totally exhausted!

Who in their right mind thinks we’re going to survive another 100 million immigrants, and their offspring projected to be added to our country in 25 years, by 2050? How will we solve any of our problems with THAT many people? Answer: we won’t!

It’s a guaranteed fact that if we don’t maintain our civil society, much like Haiti has failed, there’s nowhere else in the world for us to flee. Each society must heal and deal with its own people and they must deal with their own society.

We, as a people, need to stop all immigration into America, NOW! There is no Plan B.

If you think I’m kidding, just watch these videos:

Immigration, Overpopulation, Resources, Civilization by Frosty Wooldridge

Part 4: “Suppose you were an idiot; and suppose you are a Congressman; ah, but I repeat myself.” Mark Twain. Terrorists among us, food production, poison food, sugar, obesity, apathy, non-voters.

Mark Twain said a century ago, “Suppose you are an idiot; and suppose you are a member of Congress…ah, but I repeat myself.”

If you look at the majority of Congressional critters such as Colorado’s John Hickenlooper and Michael Bennet, Twain’s wisdom hits dead on the mark. If you apply it to California’s Maxine Waters, you would be giving her too much credit. When you apply it to 84 year old Nancy Pelosi, dementia would be the first word to come to your mind. Why is America facing a growing nightmare? Answer: the majority of those 535 Congressional critters representing Americans rarely solve anything. They let problems fester to the boiling point. They fund 20 year wars that cannot be won. They sacrifice our nation’s youth to death brought to us by the entrenched Military Industrial Complex. Who wins? The bankers and corporate heads of war machine producing companies.

Suppose you were an Alzheimer’s victim; and suppose your name was Joe Biden…ah, but I repeat myself. Jill Biden knew her husband suffered from Alzheimer’s four years ago. But the lust for power drove her to drive him to the presidency. After 50 years of shaking hands and meaningless hot air speeches, he’s placed America into an insufferable nightmare of 12 to 15 million illegal aliens of every stripe—terrorists, mentally ill, drug addicts, gang members, drug dealers, rapists, killers and worse. Biden set America on a course of internal conflict that may be our last journey. He’s got Palestinian flags along with Hamas flags parading through our cities. He’s got American kids hating their own country. He’s invited Muslims to chant, “Death to America” right in our own streets. He invited them to burn Old Glory.

Suppose you were uneducated; and suppose you were an American citizen…ah, but I repeat myself. According to educational experts, 42 million Americans cannot read, write or perform simple math. They represent a huge chunk of “functionally illiterate” Americans. They are represented by 540,000 homeless in America. They represent over 200,000 homeless in California. They represent drug addicts and alcoholics driving on our roads that kill 18,000 Americans annually in car crashes. And still, our legislators won’t create laws that make drunk driving a serious crime by impounding cars, taking away licenses for life and serious jail time. It’s a bet that those 18,000 annual deaths would have liked to still be alive because of drastically stringent laws against drunk or drugged driving.

Suppose you were eating poison foods; and suppose you were the American public…ah, but I repeat myself. Today, sugar, high fructose corn syrup, sucralose and another dozen names for synthetic sugars, poison our kids, ourselves and our lives with diabetes, obesity, ADHD, heart disease, cancer and worse. We’ve got RoundUp glyphosate from Monsanto poisoning everything in our food chain, but Congress will not put a stop to that deadly chemical. Instead, Monsanto dumps tons of money into Congressional Critters’ pockets to keep spraying its deadly poisons everywhere across the land and onto our foods. It’s in our groundwater. They even created GMO corn and soy to combat glyphosates with ‘ROUNDUP READY’ seeds. So, you not only get the poisons, you eat genetically modified foods that wreak havoc with your intestinal system. Then, of course, you get to drink Pepto Bismol for heartburn tablets to combat the bad foods.

Then, wow, drink a Mountain Dew, or Diet Pepsi and/or Coke to consume 13 teaspoons of raw sugar or sucralose to poison your cells because that’s where that synthetic sugar gets stored because the body cannot process it. Feed your kids Sugar Pops or Fruit Loops to poison them with sugar overload and chemical dyes. Is it any wonder that 70 percent, that’s 7 out of 10 Americans suffer from 20 to 40 pounds overweight to obesity of 50 pounds or more. Then, we wonder why cancer, diabetes, and heart disease kill millions of Americans prematurely. On CBS news, “71 percent of military applicants are so fat that they are unfit for military service.”

When you look at the nightmare facing Medicare, it’s guaranteed to collapse as the Baby Boomers overwhelm the doctors and hospitals. People would rather eat a “happy meal” than wholesome, organic fruits and vegetables. Let’s slather on the trans fats, caffeine, sugar and preservatives…along with MSG, an “excito toxin” that makes you order a second Big Mac. That chemical gives you a “Big Belly” and a “Big Heart Attack.”

Suppose you were a big city with insane asylum gridlock traffic where you fume in your own fumes, but your city councils keep adding more apartments and businesses to continue exponential growth…wouldn’t that qualify them for the idiot category? Every major city we visited featured dozens of sky cranes adding tens of thousands of buildings in NYC, Chicago, Atlanta, LA, San Francisco, Denver, Houston and SO many other cities. You see SO many more people compacted into tighter and tighter living conditions. Then you wonder why 14 year olds are shooting up schools, or 20 year olds try assassinate presidential candidates.

Suppose you saw billions of bottles, cans and plastic containers strewn across America’s landscape, but 44 states do not have container deposit-return laws to change that equation…yes, you would be led by idiots. This country stands eyeball deep in the trash of every description. Motorhomes and trailers get thrown into the woods to degrade for the next million years. Entire homes, cars and junk fill pastures! A certain percentage of Americans possess no regard for the land. And the ones who don’t toss it, won’t pick it up or take action to get it picked up. Worst state? Mississippi…which is the poorest, but spends $100 million annually to feed, house and care for its 77,000 illegal aliens. Go figure that one out!

Suppose your open borders that allowed 12 million illegal aliens into our country in the past 3 1/2 years, and tons of fentanyl that has killed 250 ,000 young Americans in the past three years, but Biden-Harris did nothing to stop it…you would be a complete, immoral, unethical, and pathetic president-vice president-Congress, but that’s the kind idiots we have running this country. Yet, Kamala Harris stands proud of her work for NOT securing our borders. She’s responsible for thouands of rapes, robberies, drug deaths and murders like Laken Riley. So, what is Harris doing? She’s running to become president so she can invite another 12-15 million MORE illegals and millions MORE fentanyl tablets into our country to kill more of our kids.

Suppose you allowed 9/11 to happen because of lack of immigration vetting like giving unvetted immigrants driver’s licenses like New York did with Muhammod Atta, but now Governor Walz of Minnesota, gives them driver’s licenses. Plus if we build a 30 foot wall, he said he would be investing in a ladder company that would manufacture 35 foot ladders to help illegals breach the law. Governor Walz IS AN IDIOT.

This list of idiots can only be stopped at the ballot box in November. If you don’t stop the number one idiot, Kamala Harris, you will be amazed at all the misfortune, crime, homeless illegals, collapsing schools, collapsing welfare systems, chaos and Muslim events coming to the USA in 2025.

NEXT: Part 5: What I predict is going to happen in 2025 and beyond.

Part 3: Third World Gangs, terror groups, Hitler’s actions, enormous costs, societal breakdown, something rotten in America.

“There is something rotten in Denmark,” said Marcellus in Shakespeare’s Hamlet. He referred to all the nefarious goings-on, the rotting of characters, and the corruption pervading that country.

“Something is rotten in America in 2024,” report historians like Victor Davis Hanson, one of the most trusted academics of our time. He wrote, The Case for Trump. He also wrote, Mexifornia. His wisdom and knowledge surpass any of the talking pundits on America’s airways. I met him in Washington DC 20 years ago. I heard him speak. He made common sense then, and he makes more common sense today as to his take on what’s happening to America.

One reader responded, “Frosty, per your essay on America’s Growing Nightmare, the kicker is that the majority of voters in California keep voting for people like Gavin Newsome, Adam Schiff, Maxine Waters, the late Diane Feinstein, and Nancy Pelosi, who promise to give them even worse conditions in the future. They can’t get enough of it. If you can come up with a good answer for why the California electorate keeps voting to cut their own throats, then we will have a much better idea of how to save this country. Ditto for the voters in Washington State, Oregon, New York, Massachusetts, and all the blue cities and states throughout the country. Those people seem to WANT their country to become a third world hell-hole, and they keep on voting for anyone who promises to make that happen. Dear God in Heaven, how did we get to the point where so many Americans seem to want to destroy their own country and culture.” Milt

“In 2008, prior to the November election, Barack Obama spoke to a large, seemingly adoring, group in Chicago. In summarizing his potential plans for America as its next president, he said he was planning the ‘fundamental transformation of America’. Except for 2016-2020. Democrats have been in control of the White House, Antonio Gransci’s proposed ‘march through American institutions’ has been completed, and should Harris and Walz win in November, Obama’s promise may become a fait accompli by 2028. Klaus Schwab, head of the World Economic Forum, also made a prediction for us: ‘By 2030 you (we deplorables) will own nothing, and be happy’.” Gary/MI

What did Muslim Obama/Barry Soetoro do? He exploded Muslim immigration into America. He fomented incredible racial chaos and anger. He and Kamala Harris supported the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots and destruction of $2 billion in property. Along with “defunding the police,” Kamala Harris created a “Go Fund Me” bank account to bail out homegrown terrorists to get back out on the streets to burn, steal and kill.

Not only that, but we also now endure a growing Islamic Caliphate in Detroit, Michigan, where Sharia Law dominates those 300,000 foreign-born Muslims. Who, by the way, live on our welfare systems with no incentive to work or support America. In fact, those Muslims have been chanting on videos, “Death to America.” And, you won’t see a single American flag in that area of Detroit. You will see the Palestinian and Islamic flags being flown. Talk about, “Something rotten in America….” How do I know? I visited Detroit, Michigan last summer.

Now, we’ve got ISIS terrorists proudly burning America’s flag at Columbia University, Harvard and many more. They desecrate our founding fathers with paint and stickers, and celebrate that most sickening Hamas terror group that slaughtered 1,200 Jews on October 7, 2023. In fact, you will see their American Muslim proxies celebrating October 7th in our own streets. Does that remind you of Adolf Hitler?

How could America, a country that guarantees freedom of religious choice become the next birthing grounds for Hamas, Nazi’s, Iran, et al.?

Let’s talk about those 12,000,000 (million) illegal aliens who Biden-Harris invited into our country for the past 3 1/2 years. What happens if Kamala reaches the White House? How would you like another 12 million of those third world people residing in our country? How do you hope to pay for their food, housing, transport, medical and schooling? Do you have any idea as to their ability to contribute to anything in America other than lining up in soup kitchen lines or sleeping in the streets?

If Kamala Harris reaches the White House, much like the voters in California who keep voting in those lunatics, she would have a green light to invite 20 million or 50 million or more illegal aliens into America. You must understand that Congress didn’t stop Joe Biden. You must understand that Congress won’t stop this invasion with Kamala in the White House? How can I say that? Answer: Congress didn’t stop Joe Biden, and it won’t stop Kamala Harris. Most of them are ALL “rotten in America.”

How will the fabric of our culture withstand such God-awful numbers and such horrendously incompatible cultures, languages, and world views? What if Laken Riley, a University of Georgia nursing student out for a run, were your child? That Venezuelan illegal thug raped her, brutally murdered her, and destroyed her body. Well, there are thousands of Laken Riley’s who have been killed by illegal alien gang members, MS 13 drugs (over 250,000 drug overdose deaths in the past three years), and Muslims rapists who possess no social contract inclinations. All of them brought to you by Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and our indolent, useless and “rotten” Congress.

Do you know what happens in third world countries? Answer: NO LAW AND ORDER! That’s right! Your property, your well-being, your community, mean nothing to illiterate, hungry and sociopathic criminals on the hunt for turf, money, and gang status. Look to my own Denver, Colorado where Venezuelan gangs have overrun apartment buildings and shot them up. Our “beyond stupid” open borders U.S. Senators Hickenlooper and Bennet, along with Governor “Open Borders” Polis, along with Sanctuary City Mayor Johnston, all support the 45,000 homeless illegals marauding around Denver…defecating on our streets, selling drugs, shoplifting, and sucking up our welfare dollars by the millions.

Do you think it’s all going to work out? Do you think the next 12 million illegal aliens under Kamala Harris won’t “fundamentally change America”? Do you think we’re safe from another 9/11 event with all the terrorists that have taken up residence in our country?

If you think it’s all going to be “just fine” because this is America, you would be a damn fool.

Part 4: What it costs us? Our national $35 trillion debt. The $150 billion we pay for immigrants. Monsanto and our poisoned food chain. The sheer numbers that we cannot sustain.

Coming in Part 2: The Great Plains, the Heartland, Chicago, Illinois, Detroit, Michigan, onslaught into a degraded and declining America. We may not be able to pull ourselves out of this mess…much like India or any other third world country. When is enough immigration and growth, enough?

To give you a clue as to what’s coming: try this FACT on for size. Notice you will NEVER see any mainstream media reporting on this harsh reality facing every American. I don’t know how many people read my columns, but every American needs to read this series. You need to forward it to your mayors, city councils, governors, House member, U.S. senators and friends. There is no way we’re going to maintain our civil society if we continue on this course.

Before Covid, and before Biden-Harris, the mainstream media reported 12,000,000 (million) illegal aliens living within America. They created the largest underground economy in the world. They used our money to educate their children. They sent/keep sending $120,000,000,000.00 (billion) to their home countries annually. That’s money paid under the table, non-taxed, and illegal.

Since Harris became the border czar to stop illegal immigration three and a half years ago, another 12 to 15 million illegals crossed over our borders in violations of our laws, but with the certain mandate of Joe Biden and/or his handlers.

In 2024, we now pay more than $150 billion annually for feeding, housing and transporting those 24 million illegal aliens. But here’s the taser-gun to your guts. Another 55,000,000 (million) foreign born legal immigrants inhabit our country since 1965. If you take 55 million plus another 24 million (at the very least), that’s 79 million people displacing white, black and brown “born here” Americans. And, as you know, millions of them from the Middle East known as Muslims, are rioting in Minneapolis, Chicago, New York’s universities, and desecrating our founding fathers and mothers. They chant, “Death to America” with brazen hostility. You’ve already got Sharia Law being practiced in Detroit, Minneapolis, NYC, Miami, Denver and any city with a huge pocket of Muslims. Everything within Sharia Law stands against our Constitution. Muslims do not subscribe to freedom of speech, freedom of religious choice, freedom of dress, freedom of spouse choice, women’s rights, animal rights or human rights. The Qur’an commands, “Convert or kill all non-believers.”

So, What Is All of This Immigration Doing To Us?

As we drove east off the West coast across the Great Plains, we witnessed tens of thousands of white wind turbines swirling across the landscape. Those electricity-generating machines chop up annually 538,000 eagles, hawks, Canada geese, white winged pelicans, whooping cranes, and every bird migrating or trying to live its life. That’s just in America. Worldwide, those turbines chop up millions of birds while they tear a whole through the Natural World.

Can you imagine with another 100 million people added to America? You can witness a bird-graveyard beneath each one of those savage wind turbines that kill without mercy 24/7.

Think about the enormous loss of birds just to provide electricity to our mega-population in 2050.

Have you heard of the Cloward-Piven Plan? The Cloward–Piven strategy is a political strategy outlined in 1966 by political activists Columbia professors Richard Cloward and Frances Piven. The strategy aims to utilize “militant anti-poverty groups” to facilitate a “political crisis” by overloading the welfare system via an increase in welfare claims, forcing the creation of a system of “redistributing income through the federal government.”

We already pay for 30,000,000 (million) Americans and immigrants subsisting on food stamps…now known as Electronic Benefits Transfers. Three years ago, note that the 125,000 Somalian immigrants in Minneapolis scammed the EBT cards to the tune of $200,000,000.00 under Governor Tim Walz. He didn’t act to prosecute them because he didn’t want to appear “racist.” Not one of the ring leaders ever saw a day in jail. But your tax dollars made a lot of them rich.

Did you notice Chicago over the 4th of July weekend? Police reported 117 shootings of Black Americans shooting Black Americans. Nineteen died. Can you imagine the costs to patch them up at the local hospitals? Can you imagine the crime, rapes and chaos in Chicago’s south side? Third world doesn’t even begin to describe Chicago’s ongoing and unsolvable nightmare. Since they voted to become a “Sanctuary City”, they feature somewhere north of 50,000 illegal aliens soaking up billions of dollars to feed and house them. Those illegal migrants are shoplifting and stealing Chicago natives to death. There is no way Chicago’s leaders can solve the crime, roads and drugs in that insanity hellhole. The current mayor proves more incompetent than the last one, and just about as stupid.

What else can we cover? How about the fact that another 100 million people added via immigration to America will DOUBLE the size of our 35 largest cities. I’ve asked this question many times in my columns over the years: how do you water, feed, educate, work, medically care for and even begin to maintain a civil society with THAT many people. Do you notice NO ONE in the mainstream media approaches these topics.

What about the roads across America? We drove over, dodged and about busted our suspension on the horrible highways in California, Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Georgia. You put your life in the hands of drunks, stoned and just plain texting morons driving cars in our major cities. Mothers Against Drunk Drivers found that 14 million Americans drive drunk 24/7 on America’s highways. Can you imagine your odds of death when another 100 million “stoned, texting or drunk” kids or immigrants drive America’s roads? We already see 20,000 traffic deaths annually from texting, drunk and stoned drivers, annually.

What about the 250,000 drug overdose deaths of American kids in the past three and a half years of Biden-Harris? If Harris wins the White House, she remains staunchly pro-open borders. She stands in direct violation of our United States Constitution, yet she will invite millions of tons of drugs to cross over our borders to be distributed by MS-13 gangs now well-established all over our country. Our kids don’t stand a chance.

How Bad Will It Become for All Americans?

All Americans, black, white, brown, red and yellow need to ask themselves what kind of a civilization are they (we) galloping at full speed toward? Will it be a manageable society? Will it be a happy society? Will it be a civilization that’s in tune with the Natural World? Will it be a civilization that solved catastrophic climate destabilization? Will each person enjoy quality of life? Will it be a society where opportunity and resources will sustain all of us?

Answer: the nightmare will become unmanageable and horrifically nasty with violence, poverty, misery and disintegration of America. What do you think?

Part 1: You can’t believe it until you see it.  When you see it, you can’t believe it.  I’ve traveled through third world countries. I’ve been sickened at what I saw. I am now sickened at what I’ve seen in America’s cities.

After a summer of 18,000 miles, 30 states, 20 major cities, West coast to East coast, Florida to Michigan, I learned a few things about the “State of America.”  When you see it with your own eyes, hear it with your own ears, touch it with your own hands and smell it with your own nostrils—all the flowery words of politicians come crashing down around a “reality check” by a regular citizen journalist.  You can’t make this stuff up as to what’s happening to America in 2024.

Notwithstanding, California provides a disheartening if not sickening example of what’s coming to many states and cities in America. Led by handsome Gavin Newsome, the state staggers under insanely gridlocked traffic with its 40,000,000 residents.  Its air-polluted skies offer every resident of LA and San Francisco poison toxins with every breath 24/7.  Close to 250,000 homeless Americans live on the streets, in parks, housing areas, underpasses and abandoned buildings. They defecate, urinate and toss trash anywhere and everywhere. MS-13 gangs push drugs into grade schools, high schools and colleges.

Another 4,000,000 illegal aliens’ children overwhelm California’s schools, welfare systems and sanitary systems. Smash and grab Asian/Black gangs steal anything and everything in sight.  You really don’t want to visit Fisherman’s Wharf or Pier 39 in downtown San Francisco for fear of losing your life with a stray bullet.  Most certainly, your car will be smashed and robbed.

California has defunded its police and/or degraded them with such animosity that criminals enjoy a higher standard of respect and opportunity.  No one goes to jail as long as they steal less than $900.00 worth of goods.  Whole Foods, Macy’s, Walgreens and hotels have shuttered their doors in the big cities.  They were shoplifted to death by vagrants, drug addicts, homeless and Venezuelan/Asian/Black and Chinese gangs brought into America by Biden-Harris.  When Biden invited 12 to 15 million illegal aliens to cross our borders, he also invited all the criminals, gangs and drug syndicates to bring their goods to our kids.  No less than 250,000 fentanyl-heroin-meth drug overdoses occurred in the past three years from Biden’s open borders. It’s a total criminal free-for-all with no penalties.

Everything in California is overwhelmed with too many people, too little enforced laws, degraded educational systems and incompetence from the governor’s office all the way down to all the DEI mayors and city councils.  They placed themselves into a “no-win” situation by negating laws, degrading police and simply allowing themselves to become third world cities.

California’s elite like House members Nancy Pelosi, and Maxine Waters provide incredible incompetence beyond the Peter Principle. Both of them possess no clue as to what they have done to California and America.  They provide a level of stupidity that sets the benchmark for uselessness in 21st century America.  They provide leadership that guarantees that California has become impossible to work in, impossible for functioning schools, totally impossible to work with fellow Americans because so few of the illegals speak English or care one iota for America.  Illegal aliens constitute more than half of California’s prisons at a cost of billions of dollars.  That’s the ones they caught. Millions of others continue to shoplift, rape, carjack and trash every city in that state.

There’s nothing sane or rational as to what’s happening in California.  Nancy Pelosi wants to give illegals $150,000.00 to buy homes. She wants to give them citizenship, cart blanche.  At the age of 84, she lacks any comprehension of the long-term consequences of her actions. As to House member Maxine Waters, if brains were gasoline, Maxine would NOT have enough gasoline to fill ant’s motorcycle and drive half-way around a BB.

With all that happening, www.capsweb.org ,  of California, discovered that legal and illegal immigration adds 6,550 people, net gain, every day of the year. In other words, the leaders of California continue their quest to turn that state into another India, Mexico, Congo, Baghdad or Columbia.  How’s that you ask?  Well, that’s where those illegals originated.  If we keep importing them, we too become a third world country.

Like India at 1.44 billion people, they’ve become SO ENORMOUS in population, that their citizens live in human misery at a level unknown heretofore in America. But if you add up that acceleration of population growth in California now at 40 million, because of immigration, that state expects to reach 60,000,000 (million) by 2050, give or take a few years.  How do you water, feed, house, educate, transport, provide work and maintain a civil society with that many disparate cultures and people.  How do you regain law and order?  How do you stop massive drug cartels from killing our citizens?  How do you solve any problems?  Answer: you don’t. You drag America’s citizens into a third world community.

On top of that, let’s examine the quality of life in California.  On one episode of “60 Minutes” with Leslie Stahl, she reported that water has become so scarce that they now provide “toilet to tap” water. In other words, you get to drink water that’s been chemicalized out of the toilet water to drink as drinking water.  What she didn’t say in that report: with another 20,000,000 (million) people, there won’t be enough “toilet water” to turn into “tap water.”  When I wrote her about that, and asked her to interview me with my book, America’s Overpopulation Predicament: Blindsiding Future Generations, she didn’t return the book or offer an interview. In other words, let’s ignore the crisis until it becomes an unsolvable and irreversible nightmare.  That’s where America races, full steam ahead.

On top of that nightmare, Biden-Harris degrade California’s and America’s standard of living.  They just imported 12-15 million third world illegals who have no connection to or love of America.  They cost you and me, American  taxpayers $150,000,000,000.00 (billion) a year in  welfare, food, housing, schools and prisons.  (Source: www.fairus.org)

The ongoing kicker, Biden-Harris continue importing Middle Eastern Muslims who chant, “Death to America” in Detroit, New York City, Miami, LA and San Francisco.  In my own city of Denver, we’ve got Venezuelan gangs taking over, gunning down and terrorizing apartment building-dweller American citizens.  Worse, our two U.S. senators, Governor Polis, and Denver’s mayor support open borders.  Also, Denver as a Sanctuary City and our state as a Sanctuary State.  We already suffered 10,000 homeless in Denver, but now, we’ve got another 50,000 homeless illegal aliens.  We taxpayers foot the bill into the billions of dollars.

Do the politicians in Washington DC or our state care?  Answer: they stand by while we citizens pay the price in getting our children  killed, as in Laken Riley, our stores robbed, and drugs distributed to our children.  What’s happening to America, at some point, will not be solvable.   We all become victims of this invasion.

As I said, “You can’t  believe it until you see it; and when you see it you can’t believe it.”  But it’s here and it’s growing worse by the day.

Coming in Part 2:  The heartland, Chicago, Illinois, Mississippi, Detroit, Michigan, onslaught into a degraded and declining America. We may not be able to pull ourselves out of this mess…much like India or any other third world country.

We humans make judgments on just about everything that comes into our eyesight. We judge ourselves when we look into the mirror in the morning. We judge our friends by the cars they drive. We judge strangers by the clothes they wear. We judge incessantly beyond the borders of our minds.

(On the smorgasbord of life, choose strawberries dipped in chocolate with your comments about other people. Such actions will bring you a feast of positive energy that will enliven your life.) Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

All judgment causes some kind of pain, anguish or trepidation within and without a person.

The late comedian George Carlin said, “I love humanity; it’s people I can’t stand.”

When you judge someone else, you maintain the illusion of being right. You pretend to know more about another person than you know about yourself. You send specific emotional vibrations into the air around you, and eventually, those vibrations return with a vengeance.

Judgments go hand-in-hand with conflict: religions judge other religions. Races assess other races. Social classes critic other classes. Rich arbitrate against the poor. The educated condemn the uneducated. The beautiful degrade the plain people.

But let’s get down to ourselves and how to move out of one of the most destructive aspects of human nature: judging others in comparison to ourselves.

Please make one point certain: everyone on this planet paddles his or her canoe to the best of his or her abilities. Just as you may experience ups, downs, happiness and tragedy in your life—the rest of humanity walks that same path with you.

Sure, you enjoy preferences in your life. You wish everyone thought, acted and behaved like you. You may identify with school intellectuals, the smoking crowd behind the parked cars in the school parking lot and/or the sports stars in your high school. No matter which path your fellow humans take, each holds pitfalls, snares and downsides. Each chosen path also offers positive opportunities.

Some of your judgments may be offhanded remarks like, “She’s fat; her hair looks terrible; looks like her grandmother dressed her; look what the cat dragged into the school and one-hundred other comments.”

Some judgments might be vicious like, “I heard Cindy went all the way with Randy the football team captain; did you hear about Jack being caught cheating on his test?”

When anyone speaks poorly of others, it insulates that person from their “mark”, i.e., the one subjected to the judgment. It matters little whether they hear it or not, find out about it or not. At the same time, such thinking blocks us from our own humanity. Judgments expose the lesser self in our being.

Essentially, judgments might be defined as “high level fear wearing a mask.”

When we make hurtful judgments, we call in more pain upon ourselves. Whomever might hear our judgments must decide to agree or disagree. If the victim hears them, that person must deal with the bias, prejudice or pain at their frailties being pointed out. No matter what, the negative vibrations condemn the judge and the one judged.

Say you see someone suffering from obesity. It could be someone begging on a street corner. It might be someone in school failing a class. It could be someone experiencing a divorce.

Become aware of the moment. See each person in a new light. Instead of a judgment thought or comment, forgive yourself and bless the other person—perhaps with a prayer or tranquil thought that blesses them on their life journey.

Release your lesser consciousness. Evolve toward your highest and best mindfulness. With that “fat” person you see ringing up your groceries, you might pick out her set of earrings or necklace for an honest compliment. “Miss, those earrings look fabulous on you…I just love that sapphire necklace you’re wearing.”

Suddenly, that person lights up, smiles and graciously feeds back to you the positive energy of her universe to your universe.

When you compliment someone rather than condemn him or her with judgment, you bestow intrinsic truth that infuses him or her with joy. You call upon your greater good to mesh with their greater good. Finally, you create a better world, especially with you in it.

In recent weeks, my son Trevor quit his well-paying pharmacy tech job in Denver, Colorado for a “room and board” position in a quiet village in the Austrian Alps. He sickened of his role in filling drug prescriptions for people addicted to poor health, synthetic solutions and no personal accountability for their own wellness.

(Open yourself up to a joyful life by spreading your arms and smiling to the universe. When you do, like butterflies to flowers, you attract the highest and best into your life. You create high vibrations in your cells that equate to positive frequencies for living. You attract people, places and happiness into your life.) Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

Additionally, he tired of co-workers “living” on their Smart phones while being paid to work. He tired of the stress of Denver traffic, and ultimately, he tired of the meaninglessness of the job.

Within a week of his landing in Tirol, Austria, he sent video pictures of his cozy room with a view of dramatic mountain peaks rising from the ramparts of his bucolic new home.

His job? He searched on line for internationals jobs at “Help-X”. People who need workers post from all over the world. All Trevor needed: a ticket to Austria. It cost him $482.00, which took him to Iceland, then to Frankfort and a train to Tirol. Finally, to his mountain lodge. He teaches English to guests in a yoga mountain retreat. Hot tub, of course! He also cooks breakfasts, lunches and learns dinner preparation from an Austrian chef. He’s learning how to teach yoga.

After work, he takes hikes along serene mountain streams flowing through winter snowfields. Next week, he intends to ski at one of the area’s alpine slopes. In the spring, his bicycle awaits.

He said in an email, “I am happier in my new life than any words can explain. I needed to save myself from my stress-filled life in Denver. I needed to see the world for a fresh perspective of myself.”

Ironically, he’s not making a dime. Yet, because he shifted his priorities, he’s happier than I have seen him in years.

Trevor reminded me of my own journey toward self-discovery. In college, I studied to become a teacher, but when you’re young, you cannot “know” which of the 37 life paths you might pursue. I refer to Dan Millman’s book: The Life You Were Born To Live. In that book, any reader can determine which life path works for him or her. Instead of stumbling along through their teens and into their twenties without a clue as to what “turns them on in life”, readers discover their highest and best life work.

Decades earlier, after becoming totally frustrated with teaching in Brighten, Colorado, I resigned to live on a farm in the rolling hills near Cadillac, Michigan. I lived on 80 acres with beautiful hardwood maple, spruce and poplar forests. In the back part of the acreage, a small babbling brook gurgled under an old stone bridge. I built a bench near the stream to sit during the autumn colors.

I enjoyed a pond about 50 yards from an old farmhouse similar to Thoreau’s cabin on Walden Pond in Massachusetts. Many an evening, I watched fireflies, dragonflies and fish jumping under a starlit sky while I gazed into the embers of a stone-encased fire pit that I built with my own hands. For two years, I cut firewood, ate a vegetarian diet, read two to three books a week, took long hikes, cross country skied and discovered that I loved writing.

My life on the farm became the foundation for my quest to travel the world on a bicycle, write about my adventures and fulfill my deepest longings toward a literary life. All these years later, I am thankful for the courage to change course in my life.

How can you respond to your invitation to live a great life?

♦ Repurpose your thinking. In order to change your life, you must change your thoughts. Remember that thoughts become things.
♦ Accept yourself and your ideas for a happy life. That means you realize that you’re not happy with what you’re doing, so you change paths. From that choice, life offers you new opportunities.
♦ Remember your thoughts represent “seeds” in your mind. Plant “thought seeds” to grow into your new self, your new path and your new concepts.
♦ Feed your mind “positive” vibrations that yield a higher “frequency” in your consciousness.
♦ Pretend that your mind resembles water when meeting obstacles that stand in the way of your dreams. Water finds ways around, over and under obstacles. It always finds a way to its ultimate destiny. By choosing to “think” like water, you move yourself toward your chosen destiny.
♦ Don’t know that destiny? Like water, keep moving in a positive flow toward your highest and best. Life unfolds toward your way.

Like I did at age 26, my son Trevor at 29 decided to move toward his destiny by changing his path. What will he find in Austria? How will he pay for his journey through Europe? The answers evolve along his chosen path.

Those same answers await you on your selected route toward living a prodigious life by your own invitation to your greatness.

It’s crazy out there in America today. My own State of Colorado’s unelected supreme court justices just took candidate Donald Trump off the ballot.  They are SO political that they will do anything to stop him. They haven’t read the U.S. Constitution because what they did is unconstitutional.  Another black NFL player said that mediocre white players should NOT be allowed to give commentaries on the games.  He said that blacks are superior to whites and need to have black commentators to call the games. Of course, his writing abilities reflected his low IQ as well as his inability to write and speak  a coherent sentence.

Boston’s Chinese-American mayor just hosted an all-minority Christmas party, excluding white people because of their color.  It was called, “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.”  Are you still scratching your head on that one?  Joe Biden invited 8,000,000 illegal aliens over our borders, so we now have 20,000,000 criminals in our midst.  He can’t figure out how to house them, so they are our new entrenched poverty class. Bet you can’t wait for the next 9/11-like terrorist attack!

Sanctuary Cities for illegal aliens like New York City, Chicago, Baltimore, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angeles and others are sinking into an unsolvable quagmire of third world refugees.  Yet, they support open borders. Go figure!

It’s so nuts out there in America, that I can hardly stop my stomach from exploding.  So, these next two columns just before Christmas will give you a little reprieve from what’s happening to our country:  Your Inner Life Elevates Your Outer Life 

Back in our college years, my younger brother cut himself shaving one morning. He bled all over the washbasin.  Blood ran down his neck and into the drain.

(Everyone hits some “deep” snow on their journey through life. You can choose to get stuck in it or keep moving toward your ultimate goals.  A good attitude makes the journey easier.) Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

He yelled, “Howard, you stupid expletive, expletive and more expletives!  How can one man be so stupid?  You’re an idiot moron dufus!”

“Aren’t you being a little hard on yourself bro?” I said.

“I’m an idiot for slicing up my face,” he replied.

At the time, I took a psychology course for my teaching certificate.  In that class, the professor lectured on “parent tapes” and how children suffer “scripting” from their parents.  Every child’s brain acts like a computer. It downloads everything parents do or say in front of their children.

When kids grow up in abusive and verbally violent homes, they download such speech and physical behaviors.  Later, they act them out.  They hang with others who express themselves in a similar fashion.  It’s called “group bonding” that allows for identity for each individual.

When a child grows up in the ghetto, his or her brain downloads a lot of unfortunate life lessons.  In my twenties, I taught two years in the inner city.  I watched parents and their kids interact at teacher-parent conferences.   Good parents sent good, healthy and confident kids to school.  Poor parents sent angry, frustrated and indolent children to school.

Those kids faced lifetimes of struggle because their inner lives manifested in their outer lives.  Such individuals become bullies or victims.  They become drug dealers or teen pregnancies.

When I taught in nicer schools with educated parents who enjoyed good jobs and nice neighborhoods, they sent positive-minded kids to my classrooms.  Those children flourished in art, science, math, history and chemistry.  They joined clubs to dance, act and create paintings.

No matter which kind of parents brought you up, in the end, today, you must take responsibility for your actions.  You can “rewrite” your parent scripts from flawed ones to noble ones.

I said to my brother after he patched up his face, “Wouldn’t it be a better idea to say something more positive like ‘silly boy, I need to slow down while shaving to save my face from the razor’s haste.’”

“You know something brother,” he said.  “I think you’re right. I’m going to speak highly of myself during life lessons.   I’m a cool dude so I might as well grow from such lessons via a razor blade.”

“That’s my bro,” I said.

While my brothers and I enjoyed great parents who supported us, it’s easy to condemn yourself for doing “stupid” things or making a “mistake” that causes you rebuke yourself.   So how many ways do you chastise yourself?

Let’s change “self-punishment” by creating a new positive “script” that we write into our brains daily by our choices.

• Think positive, act positive, feel positive and speak positively in everything you do every day.  That means to catch yourself if you fall into negative thoughts or actions stemming from anything that happens to you.  Once you climb onto the “positive” thought train, your inner life leads to your outer expression in positive ways.
• Create enhanced energy actions that promote your highest and best.  You may “rewrite” your scripts no matter how negative in the past.  Make sure you avoid blaming anyone for your current situation.  Take full responsibility and move toward changing your personal conditions with your actions.
• Associate, work and play with other positive people.  Avoid gossipy people, condemning people and negative people.  Leave their influence by departing their arenas.
• When you fail at something, learn from it and move forward.  When you fall, make sure you fall forward.  Get up, dust yourself off and move with a positive attitude to your next challenge.
• Pick some historical figure who inspires you.  Understand they faced enormous difficulties, too.  Make their strengths yours!

I am inspired by the late comedian Robin Williams who said, “Please, don’t worry so much. Because in the end, none of us have very long on this Earth. Life is fleeting. And if you’re ever distressed, cast your eyes to the summer sky when the stars are strung across the velvety night. And when a shooting star streaks through the blackness, turning night into day… make a wish and think of me. Make your life spectacular. I know I did.”  

I wrote a book on how to live a spectacular life.  You may give it as a gift to yourself.  Living Your Spectacular Life by Frosty Wooldridge, Amazon.

Whom do you admire?  Make your life as spectacular just like they did by changing your inner life to enhance your outer life.

Merry Christmas from our house to your house. Much love, Sandi and Frosty Wooldridge

Americans living in big cities race through their days with gridlocked traffic, honking horns, cheeky taxi drivers, police sirens and jostling pedestrians racing toward their destinations. At work, they juggle temperamental co-employees, deadlines and ashes-in-the-mouth bosses.

(A sunset over Tuscany in Italy creates spiritual bliss of quietness. Reflection and meditative thought.) Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

Once finished with work, they race home to spouses, kids and dinner preparations. The working groove consumes them while their responsibilities for daily living press their emotions to the wall. With all the automobiles, appliances and conveniences in America—we oftentimes lack peace and quiet in our lives. As we race through our metropolitan arenas, even optimists admit that science will be hard pressed to replace this precious spiritual commodity: solitude.

How can we step back to an oft forgotten pleasure in our lives, in our hearts and in our minds? How can we refresh our spirits?

John Stuart Mill writing in 1848 when cities remained smaller, less hurried and enjoyed more community among their residents said, “It is not good for man to be kept at all times in the presence of his species. A world from which solitude is extirpated, is a very poor ideal.

Solitude, in the sense of being often alone, is essential to any depth of meditation or of character; and solitude in the presence of natural beauty and grandeur, is the cradle of thoughts and aspiration which society could do ill without.”

If you feel the same way in your journey, the quest for solitude grows as you add birthday candles. A certain spiritual bliss accompanies your advancing years. Solitude brings divine calm and intellectual clarity. To abridge your life creates more simplicity in your daily rigor. Once mastered, you will enjoy an inner peace and an outer enjoyable countenance.

How does anyone move his-her body, mind and soul into solitude?

Take a daily walk in the nearest park in your city. Sit under a tree. Sit by a pond. Stare into a patch of flowers. Pull up a long stalk of grass and stick it into your mouth. Suck the green insides of the stalk of grass to feel the heartbeat of the universe pulsing over your tongue.

When you reach a stretch of grass or forest; take off your shoes and socks. Stab your feet into deep grass or sand or rock. Let your body reconnect with the vibrations of the Earth to re-harmonize your entire body’s vibrations with our planet. Many call it “grounding” and it works profoundly to refresh your spirit.

Choose the best time of day for your “solitude” moments. It may be early before work as you sit by a river, stream or on the beach. It could be a stroll along a quiet walk at dusk where the sun’s final glory mesmerizes your spirit.

While solitude means being alone in the “moment”, you might be one who loves solitude with another who shares your “heart strings” about life. By all means, make your “solitude moments” a couple-thing if that works for you.

The point of solitude means to be luxuriously immersed in the quiet moments of your own choices. You become fully aware of being alive without being ushered into the scurry of daily living.

In my own hiking times through the woods in acceptance of solitude, I feel the “sweet spot” of temperature playing upon my skin. I feel the essence of light shining through my eyes. I accept my quiet essence pulsing into the energies of life. Once I reconnect with every blood cell charging through my body, I churn with delight.

Therefore, walk into the woods, the park, along the river or by a pond to discover solitude. You will enjoy renewed strength to relish your days.

My friend Fred sat down in the booth at Woody’s Pizza in downtown Golden, Colorado last fall. He represented sartorial splendor in that he wore a suit and tie with Italian shoes. I slid into the booth opposite him.

“Good evening gentlemen,” the waitress greeted us.
“May I get you some drinks?”
“I’ll have a beer,” said Fred.
“Water works for me,” I said.

A month earlier, Fred drove home with his wife to an upscale housing area when she turned in the car, “I can’t do this anymore.”

Fred knew exactly what Jackie meant. She wanted a divorce from a marriage that didn’t work for her any more than it worked for him. When they married, everyone wondered how a high roller real estate maven hitched up to a mountain man who loved a tent more than a hotel. Nonetheless, they “made” it work for eight torturous years.

“Well,” said Fred. “I finished moving the last of my things. Thanks for helping me move the big stuff into my new digs.”

While he knew the marriage didn’t work, the pain of separation caused him emotional anguish.

That evening, over a pizza, Fred expressed his sorrows to me, his longtime friend.

As we talked, he ordered a second, third, fourth and fifth draughts—16-ounce big beers. Enough to knock down a buffalo! Near the end of our conversation, I wanted to speak up about his driving home with so many beers in his belly. But, unsure of myself, I remained silent. Fred drove home that night legally intoxicated, but he somehow avoided detection by the police.

Too often in our society, we use different drugs to numb the pain within us. Sometimes, friends watch friends spiral into alcoholism or drugs, or eating disorders without saying anything.

That night, I didn’t muster the courage to call for my wife to come down and drive him home while I drove his car back to his house. I failed to gather the courage to call him a cab and insist he use it.

Many times in life, in retrospect, we “wish” we said something at the time, but regret it later when we didn’t.

Two months later, after too many beers, Fred pulled out to pass a car on a two-lane highway, but didn’t see the yellow line. A cop pulled him over. The officer gave him a DUI ticket.

With $10,000.00, he fought it in court. He asked me if I could help him with driving him around for a week until he received an “interim” license because he appealed the ticket.

After a great deal of soul searching, he came to terms with his situation. He took personal responsibility. He understood his personal accountability.

He stopped drinking.

“After that night,” he said, “I evaluated my circumstances…I can’t drown my sorrow in booze. I can’t numb the pain. I’ve got to deal with it and deal with myself. I must meet it with a clear mind, clear heart and clear understanding. That’s what I’m doing. This ticket will cost me a lot of money, but I’m lucky the cop stopped me before I killed myself or someone else. I’m done drinking.”

A writer-alcoholic Dina Kucera said, “I felt empty and sad for years, and for a long, long time, alcohol worked. I’d drink, and all the sadness would go away. Not only did the sadness go away, but I was fantastic. I was beautiful, funny and I could do math. But at some point, the booze stopped working. Every time I drank, I could feel pieces of me leaving. I continued to drink until there was nothing left. Just emptiness.”

“Fred,” I said. “What made you decide to stop drinking?”

“To be quite honest,” he said, “I am going to make it through this divorce. I feel the pain. I am working through it. I felt fine before I got married. I am going to be fine again. I decided to choose me.”

“Life” charges around your body every second of every day until your last breath on Earth. Your red blood cells race through thousands of miles of arteries, capillaries and veins. Everything about you thrives toward performance and function.

(Sandi Wooldridge with her new car. You can smile, frown or shout. You can send positive energy or otherwise. Energy drives your car, drives your life, drives your dreams. Discover your energy, your passion and your excitement in life.) Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

Blood feeds your muscles, bones, hair, teeth and eyes. It provides food, water and oxygen. It provides you with hearing, sight, touch, smell and taste. Subsequently, you enjoy drinking water, eating food, seeing the night sky, touching your pet and hearing the crickets around a campfire.

Pretty cool to be alive! You enjoy the rarest of rare events in the entire universe: aware of your own living being. You enjoy the opportunity to live at your highest performance and most profound functionality.

Once you pass through your teenage years, you gain tremendous consciousness born from experiences. Soon after, you gain choices for your life—meaning and work. Ultimately you discover your creative potential.

However, along your path, you may experience “parenting” roadblocks, emotional traumas and a growing “sense” of inadequacy. It’s been proven that the most important years of your life range from your first breath to your 13th year.

Everything happening to you during those formative years either makes you or breaks you. If your parents presented you with a positive mental attitude for learning and guided you toward doing your best at school, you thrived in studies, sports, band and social clubs. You yearned for educational excellence. You drove yourself on the athletic field. You excelled in jobs and responsibilities. Your “performance” drove you to greater skills, talents and activities.

If, during your formative years, you suffered from parents who lacked parenting skills, or perhaps treated you poorly mentally, physically and emotionally—you face different challenges on your road to excellence. At all times, you remain at choice.

The one thing that life offers: you may choose excellence or mediocrity; justice or injustice; financial freedom or penury; health or lack of health; choice through action or scarcity through inaction.

If you reached 18 and you enjoy excellent health, you may choose to continue your education via college, vocational tech school, night classes, remedial classes, specialty courses and many more educational avenues. Yes, you may have to work nights and go to school days or vice versa. In this society, unless you enjoy musical talent like Taylor Swift or you command an artist’s brush—you need more education to move toward your destiny.

Consider these questions:

♦ Where do you want to go with your life and how can you discover your talents?
♦ Do you feel optimistic about your future and/or how do you figure out how to be optimistic?
♦ What turns you on to get excited about moving into each new day?
♦ How do you take control of your future?
♦ What would make you happiest in your life at this point in time?

If I can bring any words of wisdom on how to live a fabulously happy life, I recommend: reading, reading and more reading.

Reading feeds your mind with the wisdom of others who have gone before. Each non-fiction writer spills his or her guts to you. They share their secrets.

Right now, I am reading a book by Jon Gordon: The Energy Bus—Ten rules to fuel your life, work and team with positive energy.

He shows you how to identify your strengths, focus on your dreams and manifest your highest function and performance. Yes, other writers give you similar ideas on maximizing your life—and, they might resonate more with you. This book gives you a start. Try it out like a new pair of shoes. If what he says inspires you, go for it.

Realize that the “universe” or the “Great Spirit” conspires in your behalf. You may use positive energy to drive your life toward your best performance and highest function. Inculcate the lessons, apply the learning, take action and live your dreams.

As Robin Williams said, “Please, don’t worry so much. Because in the end, none of us have very long on this Earth. Life is fleeting. And if you’re ever distressed, cast your eyes to the summer sky when the stars are strung across the velvety night. And when a shooting star streaks through the blackness, turning night into day… make a wish and think of me. Make your life spectacular. I know I did.”

So can you!

Confusion dominates American society. Endless choices cause stress, uncertainty and frustration. Americans gobble painkillers, stomach calming pills and sedatives to relax themselves.

One look at the local news through the week illustrates bewilderment, irritation and distress with local politicians, gunfire among neighbors and students quitting schools.

Many television shows portray angry drama among married couples, office politics and conflict over values. To put it bluntly, we live in confusing times.

If you enjoyed parents who bequeathed solid values into your mind along with spiritual balance in your heart—you may count yourself among the lucky ones who meet confusing problems with a clear head and sound choices.

However, no matter what your situation in life, confusing moments challenge you on multiple levels: conflict with a spouse, argument with a best friend, co-workers and bosses. Just about anything can set them or you off.

Individuals deal with confusion in numerous ways: pills, alcohol, drugs, sports, confrontation, outbursts and passive-aggressive behavior. Some hide it, mask it and deny it.

No matter what, each of us expresses our confusion in some way or other. For the sake of mental, mental and spiritual health—let’s try a newer dynamic in the 21st century. Try to understand that confusion may shake up your understanding of life. Therefore, engage new dynamics to deal with it.

♦ Identify your confusion in order to pinpoint it and understand it. It may be a friend’s anger, job frustration, social status, and/or a physical challenge such as obesity, depression or dependency.
♦ Employ a new attitude toward your confusion. Say, “What can I learn from this challenge?”
♦ Watch for possible solutions to spring forth from your confusion by looking at it in a positive manner.
♦ Visit a quiet place to think, draw deep breaths and contemplate.

Realize that no matter how rich, privileged, or successful your situation in life, you cannot escape confusion. With greater understanding, you can deal with it.

Take these steps:

Understand that you live with the exact creative energy of the universe as every human that ever lived on this planet. That “universal vibration, frequency and pulsation” charges through your body 24/7. Engage that living energy into your thought processes. Think, grow and act on your own behalf.

Be honest with yourself. Get down to your basic humanity by being authentic. Those vibrations help you arrive at truth or stability, whichever the case may be for you.

You may talk to the Great Spirit. Not begging or beseeching that Power to solve your confusion, but instead, to grow you to your highest and best. A journey of recognition awaits your spiritual contemplation. Understand your oneness with the natural world.

Take stock of your strengths and weaknesses. Understand your downfalls from the past by building on their wisdom. Every negative in your life offers a lesson. With understanding of your foibles, you may corner confusion within yourself. Once you stare it down, you may choose clarity.

The late comedian Robin Williams spoke through “Jack” who prematurely aged to the point where he suffered old age before he graduated from high school. He gave a speech to the young people in the audience, but he spoke to everyone at any age,

“Please, don’t worry so much. Because in the end, none of us have very long on this Earth. Life is fleeting. And if you’re ever distressed, cast your eyes to the summer sky when the stars are strung across the velvety night. And when a shooting star streaks through the blackness, turning night into day… make a wish and think of me. Make your life spectacular. I know I did.”

By choosing for your highest and best through life’s confusions, you may repeat those same words throughout your life.

Snow White discovered her prince, embraced him and kissed him. Prince Charming swept her off her feet and carried the young maiden to the castle to live happily ever after. John Wayne, Clint Eastwood and Steve McQueen captured the desperadoes before riding into the sunset with Marilyn Monroe, Rachel Welch and Sharon Stone.

Russell Crowe, Pierce Brosnan, Bradley Cooper, Ben Affleck and George Clooney swept Angelina Jolie, Beyoncé, Jennifer Lawrence and Scarlet Johannson off their feet to “live happily ever after….”

Whether you follow fairy tales of old or live in this fast-paced, hectic world of the 21st century—you may choose tools to live happily ever after. One note must be added: day-to-day.

While our heroes ride off with their heroines on horses or BMW’s, you must wake up in the morning to deal with that person of the opposite sex. You must deal with his or her foibles. You must skip out the door to work, which in itself may cause you stress, fatigue and irritating people. You must pay a mortgage, credit card bills and parking tickets.

Stress may be the greatest cause of countless diseases afflicting millions of Americans. Heart attacks, anxiety, suicides, obesity and other afflictions find their origins in some kind of stressful situation manifesting in countless numbers of people.

Several items cause stress:

You fill up your life with too many things.
Congestion of commitments. No balance in your life.
Internal expectations to be perfect.
Latent fears and insecurity revolving around your mind.
You feel like a victim.
Bosses pushing you beyond your limits.

In the end, pills of every color, shape and size fail to alleviate stress. Alcohol exacerbates your stress because it temporarily masks it, only to watch it erupt in other areas. Overeating only compounds your emotional turmoil as you grow your girth.

Body, Mind and Spirit

Life evolves with a dance of your body, mind and spirit. By keeping them in balance, you move smoothly through your world. Engage all three daily for optimum results.

First of all, stop hanging on to a stressful condition, situation or memory. Decide to move your mind to other thoughts. Turn frustration into fascination. If you fall, fall forward. Keep your mental, emotional and spiritual gears moving onward.

Second, choose quiet places to soothe your spirit toward your highest and best. A daily swim may be your Zen. A walk down a quiet path after work may be your needed solitude. A game of checkers with a friend may hit the spot.

Third, awaken your personal power to make choices that lead you to a higher truth. That may mean a different job. It may mean different friends that you engage by going to a www.meetup.com website. It’s your choice to make; so make it.

Fourth, you may like your stressful work; so, change your attitude toward your work. Gandhi said, “Be the change you hope for in the world.”

Fifth, as you “busy” through your day, sit back to take a deep breath. Inhale life and exhale spent energy. Be aware of a quiet time at your desk or outdoor job. Think grateful thoughts that yield abundant energy.

Sixth, you constitute the most important person in your life. Invest in your mental, physical and intellectual well-being by taking care of “you” first. With you own internal balance and self-nurturing, you may enjoy your job, spouse, children and friends. Place as much capital into your “you” account as possible to maintain balance in this high-speed world. Practice your joy of living daily, not somewhere in the future.

One famous psychologist said, “What if you acted as if everything is easy?” Such actions and thought processes lead to healthful living.

Two women neighbors talked across a short fence one day with a garden between them. The elderly woman expected an intellectual conversation. The younger lady watched her six-year-old daughter who continually asked her mother over to, “Look at this angleworm mama…come see this bee mama…look at this spider….”

The older lady said, “Doesn’t that drive you crazy?”

The younger woman replied, “I brought this child into the world, so I might as well let her show it to me.”

Look at stress as an opportunity to grow. You can only live happily-ever-after one day at a time.

Gossip remains the mainstay of social media, sewing clubs and emails worldwide. Humans love talking about someone else more than the weather. They choose rumor, tattle-tales, speculation and allegation over facts, truth and reality.

Gossip may be called “The devil’s radio” for lack of a better metaphor. You’ve heard, “The devil is in the details…the devil made me do it.” We somehow use the “devil” to sidestep our own culpability. Aristotle, Socrates and Kant realized that the “devil” in all of human foibles remains our own choices.

Let’s define gossip:

♦ It reveals passive aggressive behavior
♦ It serves as social grooming
♦ Ironically, it builds a sense of community with shared interests with those who partake
♦ It reinforces personal bias
♦ It provides person-to-person dissemination of truths, lies and bias

In one term, it may be understood as “backbiting” or eating the flesh of another.

When it happens in the office realm or even in social groups, it causes stressful problems for victims and negative consequences for everyone:

♦ Erosion of trust and morale
♦ Anxiety among employees or friends
♦ One statement may become hyperbole after passed around a few times
♦ Gossip causes divisions among those who like a person and others who despise that person
♦ It hurts others’ feelings
♦ When acid environment pervades a workplace or group, healthy people evacuate

What does this information have to do with you? Do you see yourself in the definitions of gossipers? How does it feel? Have you ever been the victim of gossip?

Years ago, I gossiped to myself with judgments of other peoples’ financial condition such as a beggar on the streets of my city. I made comments to myself as to the condition of another person’s obesity. I muttered comments to myself as to a stranger’s garb, as if it made any difference to the world or to me. I look back on it as passive-aggressive gossip. At the minimum, I only hurt myself with my negative “thoughts” that created negative mental and body frequencies that harmed my balance as a human being.

Along my life path, I heard many a “rumor” started by someone where I taught school. I watched teenagers create rumors to ruin a girl’s reputation. I watched how bullies made a mockery of another person.

Along my journey, I discovered that self-actualized people, people with passion and a path toward their self-chosen destiny—eschew silly drama comments about anyone else. They live and let live.

However, if you find yourself in the midst of such verbal abuse, you may engage a few actions:

♦ You lead by your examples of word and thought. You speak well of people, or, if you possess issues with them, you simply remain silent.
♦ If a gossiper continues his or her “anger” toward someone, you might become the bold one to confront such behavior.
♦ Choose not to be drawn into such actions.
♦ Ask questions rather than condemn. Allow gossipers their moment, yet firmly educate them to their highest and best.
♦ Usually, a gossiper complains about a person or situation. You may be the light that dissolves the darkness by offering solutions.
♦ Some gossipers are downright vicious. It’s best to simply avoid them, walk away, and/or choose the high road of forgiveness.

When confronting or dealing with small mindedness or a toxic environment, whether at the office or at home, the key remains openness, hearing all sides and an appreciation of all perspectives. Once you move issues into the open, many people step to the positive side of the equation.

In the end, you vanquish the “devil’s radio” while you open lines of communication for better understanding, greater appreciation for all involved and a sense of community. We all want to be accepted, feel heard and finally, appreciated.

Many people drag the past back into the present. Others make excuses for poor choices. Still others wave personal responsibility onto circumstances. Others abandon themselves in favor of the modus operandi of their “shadow” side.

(Enjoying outdoor lunch.) Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

When arrested for drugs in her pockets, one movie starlit said, “These aren’t my pants. I don’t know anything about what’s in the pockets.” Another fashion model, upon being arrested for speeding said, “This isn’t my car so I’m not sure about the speedometer.”

You may remember as a child if your mother caught you with your hand in the cookie jar, “The devil made me do it, mom.” In fact, you wanted to satisfy your sweet tooth.

In today’s world, people seek approval and love more than anything in their daily lives. If they fail to turn in their term paper on time, “I just didn’t have enough hours in the day to get it done” instead of facing the fact that he-she spent the time absorbed by fleeting pleasures.

Others want to please friends rather than making themselves the most important person in their lives. They create a “shadow self” through their actions at work and at social gatherings. Realize this: everyone makes mistakes on their life journey.

You can “own” your mistake or you can make excuses. You may make little mistakes that minimally affect you. You might commit huge mistakes that cause you great consequences.

One the greatest lessons my father gave to me: “Son, if you tell a lie, you must cover it with more lies until one day, you cannot remember how to cover it. You face exposure, which eventually will undermine friendships and respect from others. I want you to know this son; you’re going to make mistakes. Own them. You never have to “cover” the truth. It runs straight and true for your entire life.”

If you “run” a story about your life as an excuse for your current problems, failures or mistakes—take stock of that story. Own it, better yet, what drives your story and fabrication? Decide to change it. You always command a “choice” point in your life.

In other words, you cannot “blame” your boss for your unhappiness in your job. You cannot blame the job. You cannot blame your spouse for your frustration. You cannot blame the kids. You cannot blame your past.

Instead of obsessing over mistakes, take a long look in the mirror. Who stares back at you? What does that face tell you? In the end, the only relationship that counts must be an authentic one with yourself.

How do you accomplish an authentic relationship?

♦ Become scrupulously honest with yourself, with friends, people under you at work and people above you at work. Honor them as you honor yourself.
♦ Realize that you make mistakes through the process of living. Learn from them, grow from them, move on to your highest and best.
♦ Instead of allowing that “shadow” of yourself dictate your choices, stand in your own integrity at all times. Make choices that benefit your life, your work and your relationships.
♦ Instead of excuses or blaming others, stand in your own integrity. After all, everything in your life ends up with you.

One other thing: maintain your body, mind and spirit in a unified whole. Physical exercise six days a week for one hour each day. Eat nutritious foods that maintain your cells with the vibrancy of living. Read a book each day before retiring, and engage classes and learning. Speak as well as listen to the Great Spirit however you define the “divine” in you.

Finally, on your life journey Portia Nelson said:

Chapter 1: I walked down a street. I spotted a deep hole. I fell into it. I said, “It’s not my fault. I’m lost.”

Chapter 2: I walked down the same street. I spotted the same hole. I pretended I didn’t see it. I fell into it. I said, “I can’t believe I am in the same place. It isn’t my fault.”

Chapter 3: I walked down the same street. There was a deep hole. I saw it. I still fell in. It’s a habit. My eyes opened. I know where I am. It is my fault. I climbed out.”

Chapter 4: I walked down the same street. There was a deep hole. I saw it. I walked around it.

Chapter 5: I walked down a different street.

Walk toward your highest and best by your choices. How soon can you walk onto a different street? It’s an easier road to travel. Along the way, wear your own pants and know what’s in your pockets.

“Cultures have long heard wisdom in non-human voices: Apollo, god of music, medicine and knowledge, came to Delphi in the form of a dolphin. But dolphins, which fill the oceans with blipping and chirping, and whales, which mew and caw in ultramarine jazz – a true rhapsody in blue – are hunted to the edge of silence.”Jay Griffiths

In 1963, I began scuba diving in the Caribbean. After nearly 50 years, I dove in the marvelous waters off the Great Barrier Reef, Galapagos Islands, Hawaii, Great Lakes, Mediterranean, Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans.

I personally watched the oceans turn from perfection to a rolling garbage pile ebbing and throbbing with the tides as humanity tossed plastic in millions of forms, glass, tires, chemicals, nets, nylon, canvas and worse into the oceans of the world.

No doubt, you heard about the 100 million tons of plastic floating 1,000 miles off San Francisco, the size of Texas, known as the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch.” It runs from 30 to 60 feet deep with plastic in places. It’s gigantic, it’s sickening and it grows by 2.5 million plastic containers 24/7. Fact: 46,000 piece of plastic containers float on every square mile of oceans of the world.

To see it grow over a lifetime sickens me to no avail. Yet, after Oprah Winfrey exposed the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch” ten years ago, not one single world leader or American leader or even citizens of the world stepped up to work for a 25 cent deposit-return law on all plastics coming out mercantile stores worldwide.

(Plastic containers ultimately travel to the sea to produce 46,000 containers on every square mile of our oceans.) Photography by www.huffingtonpost.com

Oceanographer Jacques Yves Cousteau said, “Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans.”

As we poison, plasticize and acidify our oceans 24/7, we will pay dearly at some point.

Enter artist Angela Haseltine Pozzi, director of www.WashedAshore.org , who lives on the beach in Brandon, Oregon. She makes art out of all the plastic that washes ashore from the vast Pacific Ocean at her doorstep.

Enjoy this four minute video of her work:

“The Washed Ashore Project is a non-profit, community-based organization with a mission of educating and creating awareness about marine debris and plastic pollution through art,” reads her website. “Washed Ashore is a project of The Artula Institute for Arts & Environmental Education, whose mission is to provide opportunities to express and teach environmental issues through the arts.

“Under the leadership of Angela Haseltine Pozzi, community members of all ages work together to clean up our beaches and process the debris into art supplies to construct giant sculptures of the sea life most affected by plastic pollution. This has resulted in thousands of pounds of debris removed from local beaches and turned into works of art. These unique art pieces are part of a traveling exhibition that includes educational signage and programs that encourage reducing, refusing, reusing, repurposing and recycling.

“As lead artist, Angela Haseltine Pozzi orchestrates the construction of these towering, aesthetically striking sculptures of marine life with the assistance of many volunteers and a dedicated staff. Angela has been an exhibiting artist and educator for more than 30 years and now chooses to use art as a powerful tool to encourage community and environmental action about her true passion…cleaning up the world’s oceans.”

“A frightening 90% of the debris we collect is petroleum-based: plastic items, nylon ropes and net. We are able to use 98% of this trash to create sculptures, including a walk-through replica of an ocean gyre, a Styrofoam coral reef, Henry the fish, a plastic bottle sea jelly, an oil-spill replica, and a musical sea star (tuned to an e-flat scale!). An interdisciplinary environmental arts curriculum and a feature-length documentary are in progress to accompany this work.”

“Many of us ask what can I, as one person, do, but history tells us that everything good and bad starts because somebody does something or does not do something.” Sylvia, Earle, Oceanographer

Pozzi stated, “300 million pounds of plastic is produced annually and less than 10 percent of it is recycled.”

Where does it end up? Answer: humanity considers the oceans as its ultimate toilet.

In her plastic ocean art, she produces seals, starfish, birds, turtles and dozens of other creatures. Ironically, the “Great Pacific Garbage Patch” kills millions of those critters and seabirds via suffocation, starvation, snaring them under water, gut stuffing and worse.

At some point, we humans must ask ourselves if we possess moral responsibility and ethical choices toward preserving all life on this planet by respecting its right to exist alongside us. As of today, we fail miserably.

What can you do? Answer: get involved. Work in your state for 25-cent deposit return laws for all plastics leaving every store in the USA and around the world. It takes you at the local level to create “consciousness shift” which leads to “critical mass shift” that moves into “tipping point” whereby give our home planet a chance to function biologically along with all its animals. With strong deposit laws, if anyone throws their glass, metal plastic containers, kids of every description cover the land to pick-up debris.

Contact Pozzi at her website and ask her how you can chip in with money, volunteer and make a difference in your own area. www.washedashore.org

“I had fought on behalf of man against the sea, but I realized that it had become more urgent to fight on behalf of the sea against man.” Alain Bombard, Biologist

“If man doesn’t learn to treat the oceans and rainforest with respect, man will become extinct.” Peter Benchley, author of Jaws.

As a lifelong scuba diver, I attest to those statements.

As you grew up, you experienced different lessons along your life-path.  You discovered a hot stove hurt when you touched it.   A candle flame caused pain when you passed your finger over it.  A rosebush thorn made your finger bleed.  A bee sting caused you terrible agony.

(Delicate Arch offers a “gem” of understanding to those who seek it out in the desert.  You must climb to reach it. You must experience heat, altitude and struggle to attain your goal.)

From those experiences, you avoided the obvious in your daily meanderings.  Marching into your teens, you discovered friendship, jealousy and betrayal.  A bully beat you up. A girlfriend undermined you in your pursuit of a boyfriend.

In nature, you learned to run for cover during a lightning storm.  When a dog gave chase, you picked up a stick to protect yourself.

You learned life-lessons either by your parents advising you or you learned the hard way by direct experience.

As you grew into your twenties, relationships grew more complicated, you worked a job with acerbic bosses and cantankerous fellow employees.  You discovered many different aspects to how people operate in the world.

Along the way, you picked up new understandings and created game plans on how to deal with your circumstances.

All the while, you became a better you.  But sometimes, you wondered about your choices or predicaments.

I’m reminded of the ancient king who held court each day.  He beckoned the local sage for words of wisdom. Each day for a year, the sage brought the king an overly ripe piece of fruit along with a witty statement.  When the sage left, the king tossed the fruit into a hole in a pillar where it fell to the basement, untouched.

One day, after the sage gave the king the overly ripe fruit, he turned to exit, but noticed the king tossing the fruit into the pillar.

“What are you doing?” asked the sage.  “Did you not know I gifted you with a gem in the middle of each fruit?”

The king made an excuse before the sage exited the throne room.  Quickly, the king ordered a knave to recapture the fruit.

The king cut it open to reveal a valuable gem. He said, “I never knew such beauty could be found inside an aged piece of fruit.”

The king ordered his staff to recover the gems from all the fruits in the basement.  The gems of knowledge enlightened him, which allowed him greater understanding.  He became a better king for all the people of his realm.

The great writer Thomas Moore said that every person faces the deadly turpitudes of living: obsessions, addictions, depression, loss of meaning, judging others, violence, anger, hate and prejudice.

It’s your challenge to connect with the divine in you.  You might call it the “spiritual” within you.  Choose to identify with your higher self.  That quest creates a transformation that leads to your better well-being and better choices.

When bad things happen to you, decode the experience to see the gem.  As you discover the synchronicity of the lesson, take advantage of it.  Synchronicity coupled with purpose equals “coincidence.”

Once you step into the “flow” of life, those synchronicities multiply because your energies coordinate with the natural vibrations of the universe.

Engage these talents: walk in the light, walk tall, walk with a song, walk strong, walk wise, walk with hope, walk with joy, walk with purpose and walk with passion.  People notice your demeanor.  You attract them to their own higher self.

Take advantage of a bitter experience, betrayal of a friend, unfair treatment by another or any of the overly ripe experiences of life.  You will find a “gem” in the rotten fruit that will enhance your life beyond all ordinary understanding.

While cycling coast to coast across the United States in 1984, I met a man south of Socorro, New Mexico, out in the middle of the desert, walking on his hands across America.  When I stopped across the road from  him, I threw my bike into the gravel. I walked over to shake hands.  Hey man, “Frosty Wooldridge.”  He replied, “Bob Wieland.”  I said, “If you don’t mind my asking, what are you doing out here in 105 degrees heat?”

He said, “I am walking across America…what are you doing?”  I said, “I’m bicycling across America.”  He said, “I’d like to do that, too, but my legs are too short.”  I grimaced at his humor…because the man had no legs.

He had his legs blown off in Vietnam.  At that moment, he had hand-walked 936 miles in 19 months. Two years later, I heard on an NPR newscast that it took him 3 years, 8 months, 6 days to complete his coast-to-coast journey.  I cried my eyes out upon hearing about his triumph.  I was humbled beyond measure to be a tiny moment in his journey.

From that single event in my life, I have never complained once since 1984.   I take each day as a gift.  I love each second on my touring bike, road bike and mountain bike.  I promised myself to live a life worth remembering.

Totally blind in his teens, American Erik Weihenmayer became the first sightless person to climb Mount Everest.  He continued until he climbed the highest peaks on all seven continents.   Bob Wieland lost his legs to a bomb blast in Vietnam, but walked across America on his hands coast-to-coast.  Time: three years, eight months, six days!  Later, he hand-cycled west to east and east to west across America.  Not finished, he became the first double amputee to complete the Hawaii Ironman Triathlon.  He ran the New York, Boston and Chicago Marathons that took him five days to finish each race.  At 67, he again hand-cycled coast-to-coast across America.

(A group of kids eating treats in the Grand Tetons. How will their life histories turn out?  Will they live lives worth remembering?)  Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

American Aimee Mullins, 37, without legs below the knees since childhood, races track, models and gives motivational speeches. She said, “True disability is having a crushed spirit.”  She redefines what a woman can be and what she can accomplish.

Wilma Rudolph, sickly as a child, wore braces, but became the first woman to win three gold medals at the 1960 Olympics where they celebrated her as the world’s fastest woman.

Your choices in life transform you from the banal to the poetic—even to the noble.  Wasn’t it Shakespeare’s character “Shylock” a moneylender in the “Merchant of Venice” who spoke these words that ring out in the 21^st century, “If you prick us, do we not bleed? And if you tickle us, do we not laugh?  It is our humanity and all the potential within it that makes us beautiful.”

With those words ringing into the rafters of your mind, how will you live a life worth remembering?

If you’re 20 years old, you enjoy choices to lead an epic life that propels you to heroic memories.  By age 30, you burned through your 20s and may relish some epic moments.  By 40, you you’re half way through.  Have you lived a life worth remembering?  Or, did the “mid-life crisis” hit you square in the eyes—leaving you with a panicky feeling?  By 70, your after-burners exhausted themselves, leaving you in a gentle glide to your final moments.

If you live on this side of 40, are you creating a remarkable life for yourself?  Do you live on any “searing the edges”?  Are you carving out some extraordinary physical, intellectual or spiritual expression of yourself?

What made the above four “ordinary people” overcome their horrific physical conditions?  What drove them to greatness?

Remember this:  if something doesn’t challenge you, you won’t change.  Therefore, instead of watching an average of 29 hours of television weekly by the majority of Americans, create challenges in your life that propel you to more “noble” encounters.  If you divide 29 hours by 7 days, that equals an extra 4.1 hours daily to think about, dream about and participate in activities or challenges outside your comfort zone.

Opportunities: weight training to build a healthy body, cross training to run a triathlon this summer, or buy a canvas, paints and brush to dabble with a painting roiling around in your ingenious mind.  You might enter a pottery class to find your talents at throwing pots with intricate designs.  How about becoming a chef?

On the intellectual front, read books that interest you.  Enroll in a class in jewelry making.  Enter a mechanic’s class to repair old cars.  Most cities feature “Free University” classes to incorporate dozens of arts, hobbies and other classes to fit your propensities and passions.  How about joining the Peace Corps or Americorps?

Want to express yourself more creatively?  I read a book by Elizabeth Gilbert that profoundly affected me.  It will enthrall and inspire you:  Big Magic—Creative Living Beyond Fear.  I’ve read it 37 times!  I want it rampaging through my mind to catch and express new ideas.

In this life, discover what makes your life worth remembering.  What will they say at your memorial service?

“She (he) lived with exuberance, imaginative energy and a song in her heart,” smiled the preacher.  “She entered the realm of potential and opportunity to live a grand and glorious life.  She wasn’t lucky; she chose her destiny.  We remember her nobility through her actions.”

Millions of Americans live their lives with low self-esteem.  Teenagers learn it from one or both parents.  Others choose it by comparing themselves with movie stars.  Many young women mutter to themselves, “I’m not good enough…I’m not as pretty as Becky the captain of the cheerleading squad…I’m not smart enough to pull top grades.”

(Go ahead, kiss the girl, kiss the guy in the Valley of the Gods because you chose high self-esteem)  Photography by Frosty Wooldridge

Often, young men drink booze to numb their frustrations from not being handsome, athletic or academically successful.  They hang with the wrong crowd or stay home where they find solitude.  Too often, teenagers of both sexes compare themselves to others.

Low self-esteem may be one of the greatest detriments to personal success socially, mentally and/or economically.  But, since it’s a learned behavior, it can be unlearned and changed.

Recently, one of my lifelong friends, the successful author of four published books, visited me in Golden, Colorado.  That night, after dinner on our deck, he and I reminisced about our college days together. We both became teachers. During the conversation, I asked him about his fifth book.

“I can’t seem to motivate myself to finish the book,” he said.  “I’m still dealing with low self-esteem.”

Mind you, this man earned a world record in one category of weight lifting. He earned a Master’s degree in advanced education.

He reared four successful children.  His wife elevated herself to a world-class artist through his encouragement.

“So, Paul, are you going to coast your way to the doorstep of death?” I asked.  “Are you going to waste your literary gifts because of low self-esteem?  What’s the value in that choice?  Why would you squander your gifts because somewhere along the line, you bought into the ‘low self-esteem’ train, and you’re still riding it?”

“I’m not sure how to figure it out and how to get off the train,” he replied.

“It’s amazing,” I said.  “All my life, I’ve been accused of being too over-confident and self-assured.  Some call me brash.  I never thought of myself as inferior to anyone or anything.  Plus, I never compared myself to anyone.  In my youth, my dad put his arm around my shoulder when I faced difficult challenges. He said, ‘You can do that, son.’  That became my truth.  Maybe you could borrow that ‘truth’ and incorporate it into you own life.  It’s more fun to live a life of high self-esteem. It creates a higher vibrational frequency in your daily life. It makes you happy. It makes you creative.  It allows you to laugh often.  It allows you to move toward your highest and best.”

“I never thought about it that way,” said Paul.

I pondered how a man of Paul’s accomplishments could carry such low self-esteem?  How do you escape low self-esteem?

First, change your view of yourself. Are you a victim or a product or a tragedy?  You decide. You choose your relationship with any of your challenges or situations.  In the end, life doesn’t bequeath you a positive or negative thought pattern. You choose it and you live it.  Either way, you evolve your life by your choices. If you run from something, it consumes you. When you face it, you gobble it.

Second, choose by daily habit to up-level your intentions for your world.   Choose to value every problem, disaster and defeat.  Use the gifts of defeat to grow your life.  At your funeral, would you feel good when your best friend spoke about you in the eulogy, “Paul lived a so-so life because he chose low-self esteem, which buried any chance of living a truly remarkable life.  He wasted so many of his incredible talents.”

Third, no matter how tough the problem, you choose the solutions and engage the intention to grow.   Remember that an answer exists for every challenge in your life.

Fourth, unbridle your dreams.  Henry David Thoreau said it best, “If you advance confidently toward your dreams, and endeavor to live the life which you have imagined, you will meet with success unexpected in common hours. You will pass through invisible boundaries. You will engage new and liberal laws. And you will live with the license of a higher order of beings.”

Fifth, consciously open to the joy, happiness and creative energy of your life by shedding the ‘low self-esteem’ skin to engage a ‘high self-esteem’ energy field around your heart, mind and body.

Finally, you write the next chapter of your life by your hand and by your choices.  Engage your brain, heart and soul toward your highest and best outcomes.  Engage the power of brave thoughts.  And, enjoy the ride!

Since we’re heading into the summer of 2024, let’s turn toward some uplifting essays that instruct, inspire, and maybe, just maybe…assist you in your unique journey through this life.  Whether you travel by bicycle, backpack, canoe, sailboard, kayak, skis, or other methods…this story may inspire you toward your highest and best adventure-seeking during your time on this planet.  It would be SO satisfying to see all Americans, indeed, all people around the planet being able to pursue their dreams.  Find your own “edge of the map” and move toward your destiny.

Some pedal for emotional peace.  Others pedal for exercise. Still others pedal for the “high” it brings to every cell in their bodies.  Many pedal for friendship in a group ride.  A few find spiritual bliss…well, make that “many” find spiritual harmony. Others pedal for the competition to see who can burn up their thighs in the process of going for more speed.  As you age, you pedal to relax while you pedal around the neighborhood hoping to stop and talk with someone.  It’s a mix of emotions on your bicycle from that first ride at the age of seven until that last ride at the age of seventy…or maybe eighty.

(Frosty Wooldridge inspecting a map to see where he is located. Quickly, he realized he was in the middle paradise. Ten minutes later, he pitched his tent and watched the sun go down over the Rocky Mountains.  Location outside Dubois, Wyoming, on the Continental Divide, coast to coast bicycle adventure.)

But some men and women possess a need to “Pedal to the Edge of the Map.”   You read about them cranking their bikes all over the globe.  Why? What makes them do it?  How can they survive those tenuous miles across the Outback of Australia or the endless sand of the Atacama Desert in South America?  What makes them want to ride up to the Wall of China or visit the Taj Mahal.  What would drive a man like Robert Fletcher at the age of 80 to ride from Alaska to Panama City in 2022 (BTW, he just made it December 12, 2022)?  Look him up on Facebook.  Sandi and I met him on the Oregon Coast during his ride this summer.  He’s 80 years old and out there giving life his all.  Or, what about Heinz Stucke riding around the planet his entire life?  Good grief, but Stucke has pedaled over 600,000 kilometers in 60 years of bicycle travel.  How do you wrap your arms around that?

After 50 years of chasing toward the “edge of the map”, I think I’ve discovered what drove Amundsen, Shackleton, Amelia Earhart, Bird, Leif Erickson, Lewis & Clark, John Muir, Jack London, Nellie Bly, Jane Goodall,  Harriet Adams, Heinz Stucke, Gertrude Bell, Sarah Marquis, Thomas Stevens, and many more.

When I finished college, I made a promise to myself that I would pedal all seven continents and as many countries as possible.  I hadn’t heard of Stucke.   Why did I make such a preposterous commitment?  At the time, I didn’t understand what I was telling myself.  But “myself” kept speaking to me somewhere in my gut, or maybe in the deeper recesses of my creative mind.

Whatever that “myself” was saying to me, I simply answered the call.  I made plans to ride coast to coast across America.  Of course no one would go with me.  “You are out of your mind,” several friends told me. I’m sure they said that to Columbus, Shackleton, Amundsen, Scott, Captain Cook, Amelia Earhart, Nellie Bly, Jane Goodall, and all the rest.  Well, screw them!  Some of us dance to the beat of a different drummer. Some of us hear something in the wind.  Others of us decide that we want as much out of life as we can stuff into our 80 years of living.  What separates those who quest versus those who sit and watch?  Answer: Action! Perseverance! Guts! Gumption! True Grit!

And finally, creative living with a certain gusto!

Once I pushed off the Pacific Ocean in 1975, with a fully loaded touring bike…and not knowing what the hell I was doing…I just kept pedaling.  As soon as I pedaled onto the Mojave Desert of California, the road stretched to the horizon.  I followed it.  I drank a lot of water. I devoured gobs of food.

What did I notice?  The horizon pulled me toward it. It beckoned with sunrises that stunned me.  Those mountain peaks tugged at my heartstrings.  The breezes whispered in my ears.  That desert heat caused me to sweat whether in Death Valley or the Atacama Desert or the Outback.

How did it feel?  Was it miserable?  You bet it’s miserable in 120 degrees F. heat with bushflies trying to eat you alive in the Outback. Just cooks you in the saddle and the flies rattle your brain.  Was it wet in the Amazon?  Gees, four hours of rain every day…mildewed my gear…sweated me to death…and the bugs…oh dear God the bugs. How do you survive 1,000 miles of nothing but sand in South America in the Atacama Desert, the driest in the world.?   And yet, the edge of the map pulled me through.

Yes,  that’s where the edge of the map really tests your resolve.  Do you really want to get to the edge of the map?  What is your location in life? Where are you headed?

For those of us that feel the “tug of adventure” in our guts, that “edge” brings some amazing moments.

To this day, I remember the West Coast of Australia where I stopped at the Pinnacles of Cervantes, north of Perth.  I had to grind it out on a sand road to reach those giant sand pillars near the ocean.  In the morning, I woke up with sand in my tent, but as I packed, a mother kangaroo and her little Joey jumped out of the bush, bounded up a ridge and vanished into the dunes.  Mother Nature knows how to entertain a long-distance touring cyclist. Later, I pedaled to the Pinnacles to see one of the strangest sights on that circumnavigation of Australia.  How did Nature form them?  Why? What purpose?   Walking among those natural skyscrapers was like walking through downtown New York City.

Later, I rode up on Monkey Mia Beach where I discovered some people playing with dolphins racing around in the water. The Aussies invited me to play with the dolphins, too. I jumped into their play-pin to catch a ride on their dorsal fins.  I was literally dancing in the water with wild Indian Ocean dolphins.  How’s that for pedaling to the edge of the map?

Do you remember Jurassic Park I ?   Remember that frilled lizard that surprised the escaping heavyset boy who stole the dinosaur embryos?   At first the lizard looked innocent enough, until he “frilled” his fan to scare the living crap out of that bad guy…then, ate him!  Well, in Northern Australia, I awoke one morning, looked out of my tent to see a lizard looking right at me.  When I moved, he “frilled” his red fan that scared the daylights out of me.  Thankfully, he wasn’t big enough to eat me like in the Jurassic Park movie.  But I’ll tell you this, that moment remains in my mind for the rest of my days.  Talk about pedaling to the edge of the map!

In the end, what’s your “edge of the map?”   Are you pedaling toward it?  Are you walking, backpacking, and/or climbing toward your dreams? Maybe you’re a birder taking shots of every species you can discover.  Perhaps you’re into macramé.  Maybe landscape painting turns your crank. What about photography?  Do you possess the same “guts” or “determination” associated with Jack London, Amelia Earhart or Thomas Stevens (the first man to bicycle around the world, and he did it on a Penny Farthing High Wheeler 1884 to 1886.)?

I can say this: it’s not a foreign country or those “moments” in wild places that tingle your senses, enthrall your heart or scare the living hell out of you. It could be a ride across your own state or across your entire country.   You will have countless “amazing” moments in the USA as you will have on all the other continents.  It’s that amazing formulation of the creative yearning that dwells in every cell of your body while you’re alive on this planet. Some heed it, most don’t.

If you heed it, you may equal anything Amelia Earhart, Jack London, John Muir, Nellie Bly or any of the rest of those famous people accomplished.  The road awaits you for your journey to the “Edge of the Map.”

This past week, we met him after walking back from a cliff on the Oregon seacoast.  As we descended out of the brambles of the cliff area, the sign on the back of his bike read, “Alaska to Panama…trading the sofa for a bicycle seat.”

No big deal since hundreds of cyclists have ridden trans-Americas. Yes, I’ve done it too, but in my 30’s.  In your youth, the energy, strength and true grit come naturally.  As you read this story, hundreds of cyclists around the world pedal into their own adventures. They’re riding on six continents…trail blazers.  They’re cycling into endless adventures with their own stories.

“So, how are you doing?” I asked the man.

“Not bad for an old dude,” he replied.

“So, what’s old?” I asked.

“Turned 80 this year,” he said.  “I decided that I was running out of time-turf, so I better make some miles before my time is up on this planet.”

“You just rode down from Alaska?” I said.  “And, you’re riding to Panama…heck man, that’s a hell of a ride at 80.”

“You know what they say,” he said.  “Better late than never.  It’s been a great ride so far.  I didn’t get eaten by a grizzly bear and I survived the mosquitoes.”

Talking to Robert D. Fletcher inspired me to appreciate a whole new understanding of the age of 80.  The average man in America dies by 77.3 years.   Past that, it’s a toss-up whether or not you will see the next day.

So, instead of waiting for the final day of his life, Fletcher got his butt off the couch, and he started pedaling.  By the time he reached the spot where we met, he’d lived a dozen lifetimes.  It’s no small item to cycle down from the Arctic Circle, Alaska.  I’ve done it, and I can verify that a cyclist faces  being eaten by grizzly bears, stomped by moose, and/or eaten alive by mosquitoes.  The demonic little blood suckers give no pause in their pursuit of your body’s fluids.

“There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.” —Sophia Loren

What I didn’t know about Robert Fletcher while speaking with him: he’s a world class athlete, world explorer, educator and totally amazing human being.  A few of his credits:

• Climbed Kilimanjaro in December 2014 and was the second oldest to do that climb that month
• Visited more than 100 countries
• Volunteered at a rhinoceros sanctuary in Botswana in 2013
• Rode in over 20 countries
• Ran five marathons with my fastest time of 3 hours, 28 minutes, and 29 seconds Completed three Olympic size triathlons
• Cycled from Agra India to the bottom of India in two months and about 4,200 km
• Hiked 125 km through the Riff Vally in Maasai territory of Kenya
• Completed two Caminos de Santiago, one by walking the 800 km French Route and one by cycling the 950 k Ruta de La Plata.

As I stood there talking to Robert, it occurred to me that no matter the enormity of his journey, he plowed into it with a youthful sense of enthusiasm that knows no age.  You just get on that bike, slip onto the pedals, settle into the seat and ride into the next moment.

It reminded me of a sermon I once heard…that life is vulnerable, that we must at times surrender and, of course, we all face struggle.  Every one of us on a bicycle faces vulnerability as to traffic and the whims of the weather.  The key is, are we vulnerable up or down?  If we choose down, we face defeat.  If we push forward, we give “up” a chance to flourish. We enjoy many rewards when we face each day with “up” on our faces and in our minds.

Then, we surrender to the ideas or moments of the day.  Do we surrender up or down?  If we choose “down”, we defeat ourselves. When we choose “up”, we move forward.  We face opening opportunities of adventure.

Finally, life presents struggles. You’ve experienced yours and I’ve experienced mine. Whether it’s family, friends, politics, religion or simply the human race’s vagaries and insanities—if we choose “down”, we can make them more unpleasant, or we can choose “up” as our personal path.  When we choose “up”, we affect our brains and bodies by injecting chemical realities into our beings.  Perhaps that’s why I’ve always been “happy out of my mind” while touring across the planet. What about you?

“Well Robert,” I said. “It’s really a pleasure to meet you. And really, it was only by chance. If we had stayed on that cliff another few minutes, we would have missed you.”

“Yeah, well, that’s the nature of life,” Robert said.  “You make the best of it and good things happen.  The best to you on your own journeys.”

“Yes sir, and I will be first in line to buy your book about your journey,” I said.

At that, he saluted me, slipped into the pedals and moved into his amazing journey at the age of 80.  But again, on a bicycle, are you 8 or 80?  Do you think about it  or even care?  There’s something about the magic of those spokes turning, that chain tightening on the freewheel, the tires gripping the pavement, the soft breeze in your face, the warm sun caressing your skin, your muscles pouring themselves into the magic of your ride, and finally, those moments that come and go. The ones that are “over” and the ones that are “yet to be.”

All you gotta’ do is get off the sofa and slide your rear-end onto a bicycle seat. Follow him at www.octoodyssey.com  His book will astound you: Octogenarian Odyssey: Trading a Sofa for a Bicycle Seat by Robert D. Fletcher.

Have you ever felt the energy of joy?  What about winning that soccer game, tennis match or racquetball tournament?  Incredible how every cell in your body ‘rises’ to such euphoric heights!  You feel good down into the deepest reaches of your heart, mind and body. You explode with something that only you can explain…sheer ecstasy!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the entire human race could feel joy and ultimately, daily happiness every day of the year?

On a long bicycle ride, you feel that joy once you reach the top of a mountain pass, from the grind up Independence Pass at 12,100 feet in Colorado…to the road leveling off, and then gravity propels you downhill, but you feel elated.  Or, ride along a rushing whitewater river…where the water imbues your cells with energy, joy and happiness.  Or, how about siting by a campfire with the embers throbbing with an indescribable beauty?  Every cell in your body dances with peaceful energy…spiritual energy.  Your entire being feels right with the world.

That’s a taste of the good times on long distance bicycle tours. For months, I followed Canadian Arie Hoogerbrugge across Canada, America and now into Mexico. I followed senior citizen Lee Rogowski on his journey from Key West, Florida to northern most part of Maine.  One man is young and vibrant.  The other is old, overweight, with a heart condition and used an E-bike to cover thousands of miles.

Both men shared that certain courage that it takes to strike out across the planet on a bicycle no less…much like Marco Polo, Captain Cook, John Muir, my lifelong friend Doug Armstrong (all 7 continents  on a bicycle), Heinz Stucke (over 50 years across 196 countries) and dozens more. On the female side, Tahnee Seagrave, Finoa Kolbinger, Sanne Cant, Juliet Elliot, Jenny Graham, my friend Bonnie Gagnon and dozens of others.   It’s certainly been an honor to have met some of them and ridden with them.

What do they all possess in common?  Answer: a certain mental, emotional and physical courage to reach outside of themselves for greater wonder, with true grit and pluck beyond the ordinary person.  As they live their lives, they inspire the rest of us mortal human beings.

That’s not only in bicycling, but all endeavors whether it be Simone Biles, Michael Phelps, Caleb Dressel, Tamyara M. Mensah or Sydney McLaughlin.  Some become famous for a moment or a lifetime…yet all face their inner demons…just like you do!

For this long distance rider, I’ve enjoyed the great ‘highs’ in life. It’s been a good journey over the years. But I’ve also discovered the ‘lows’…those times where I was so lonely or depressed that when Iooked up…all I could see was the bottom.

I lost my Dad when I was a teenager.  One lousy heart attack that hit my Dad at 46 years of age…completely changed the trajectory of my life.  Pain, hurt, anger, frustration, meaninglessness and rage.  One minute he’s there umpiring a baseball game, and the next, he’s falling over the catcher and died on home plate.  How do you process that ‘event’ as a young kid with dreams of a college athletic career?  I simply staggered into each day until the pain slipped into my  rearview mirrors. I kept going because that’s what my dad taught me, “Keep going son, no matter what…and you’ll get there…whatever your goal.”

Frosty Wooldridge, six continent world bicycle traveler, Niagara Falls

But these years later, on long distance rides across Europe, America’s Great Plains, the Continental Divide, Asia, Alaska’s wilderness endless expanse, the Atacama Desert, the Outback, China…I’ve found that grief is circular. 

While riding, my Dad visits me. Sometimes, he rides along with me, or he sits on a ski chairlift, or he swims a lap with me.  Sometimes, I spot him in a crowded mall only to wake up out of a dream.  At other times, he’s laughing with his buddies on an old 8mm movie. Seeing it immediately brings an instant Niagara of tears.  All the time, his 8”X10” picture hangs in my office.  His picture remains in my wallet on every journey.  He’s with me…he shaped me, he molded me into a man that he wanted to be proud of.   Sometimes, I burst out crying because I can’t talk to him.  I can’t hug him and he can’t hug me for assurance.

All I’ve got are memories, pictures and those ‘moments’ when he rides with me via my imagination.

For the millions of you who lost your father or mother at an early age, or any age, we share a circular grief that others don’t know, cannot understand and won’t be able to relate.  I remember that the Spirit of St. Louis flyer Charles Lindbergh said, “Death is the last great adventure.”

When I go on THAT adventure, I know my dad will be there straddling his bike with his hands on my bike.  We will ride together once again.

In his epic book, The Call of the Wild, Jack London said, “There’s a patience in the wild: dogged, tireless, persistent—like life itself.” You might like the movie portraying the book with Harrison Ford as the grizzled old man who befriends the dog, Buck.

A couple of years ago, I led a group of 60 to 70-year old’s across America on a coast to coast of the Northern Tier. On the Pacific Ocean of Astoria, Oregon to the Atlantic Ocean of Bar Harbor, Maine. It stretched across 13 states and 4,200 miles of rugged mountains, the vastness of the northern Great Plains, the beauty of the five Great Lakes, and the serendipity of the Catskill Mountain chain. To take such a bicycle journey at our advanced ages, took guts, gumption and true grit. (Some pain relievers, too)

Two of the guys on this journey proved themselves “day riders” for all their lives. But, at over 70, they enjoyed retirement with time to spare. All of us sported gray hair, or no hair, gray beards, high blood pressure, bad knees, sore hips, touch of diabetes, and spare tires around our mid-sections.

But when you overrun the age of 70, your life changes. Your perspectives change. Your understandings of the years, piled up like silage in a silo, remind you that this life is a terminal disease. You’ve used up a good bit of it. You might enjoy a year or ten years, but you’re not sure as you attend a lot of funerals.

But if you’ve lived through those first 70 years, you’ve got a sense of patience that allows you to penetrate life’s challenges with the wisdom of your old age. You know that if you maintain your course with dogged determination, you will ride across that mountain chain, one pass at a time. You will cross the Great Plains one mile at a time. You will glide by the Great Lakes one day at a time.

You also know that by being tireless in your pursuit, the final victory shall come into sight. Sure, your legs hurt, and your high blood pressure gives you a head-throb, but you rest, drink and then, you set out again with dogged determination and tireless resolve. It’s a part of age.

When you hit those Catskill Mountains along the Appalachian Trail, you realize that your persistence brought you this far, to this age, and so, why not present yourself onto the doorstep of life’s ongoing challenges? Really, on your bicycle, you’re absolutely no defined age. You’re living in your “eudemonia” pure and simple.

That’s what I discovered with those grizzled old men that rode with me. Gerry, Robert, Don, Frank! They delighted in their lives as if they were kids. They all knew that their windows of opportunity grew narrower with every sunset. That’s all the more sobering when one of our fathers died at 46 and another one died at 62. It gives you pause when you realize you’ve exceeded those ages already. Yet, you persist in your own choice of courage.

London portrayed it in that courageous dog, Buck. Dog thieves, in 1897, dognapped Buck out of his comfortable California. He found himself shoved onto a train and whisked away to Alaska and harnessed to a dog sled. End of luxury life: beginning of the hard life in the frozen north. (By the way, I cycled to Dawson in the Yukon to stand by Jack London’s cabin where he wrote his stories in the Gold Rush of 1897-98. Tiny log cabin at 100 square feet, potbellied stove, desk, chair and bed, and outhouse.)

Well, should you choose to harness yourself to your touring bicycle for such adventure, you too, face hellacious mountains to cross under your own steam. You will encounter dry, hot, miserable deserts that could sweat you to death, cramp your liquid-starved thighs and even break your will with the heat.

And talk about the liquid-misery of rain, cold, ice, even snow! Nothing like riding into a rainstorm to drench yourself in liquid-wretchedness. You’re soaked, you’re sweating, glasses fogged, and everything in-between. If you’re riding down from Nordkapp, Norway, you face freezing rain for days unending. Sheer liquid torture! Same on the Alaska Highway out of the Yukon. On that road, you might meet up with a grizzly. One thing stands as a certainty on your bike tour: Life lets you know you are alive!

“In this manner, Buck fought forgotten ancestors. They quickened the old life within him, the old tricks which they had stamped into the heredity of the breed were his tricks… And when, on the still cold nights, he pointed his nose at a star and howled long and wolf-like, it was his ancestors, dead and dust, pointing their noses at the stars and howling down through the centuries and through him.”

Like Buck, you choose to move forward. Let’s face it, we humans are animals, too, animals that think. We make choices. In those selections, we create an extraordinary life on two wheels. We never know what’s around the next bend. We never know where we might sleep that night. We devour food with rapacious energy. We never know who or what we will meet in the next sunrise. Isn’t that the “Call of the Wild” in each of us?

We thrust ourselves into the adventure. We engage it with the tenacity of Buck’s courage. With our 70 years of living, we choose our own valor at our own speed.

This coming summer of the “Roaring 20’s” of the 21st century, whether you day-ride or explore across the planet, young or old—let’s all pursue our own creative and expansive lives on our bicycles. Much like Buck in Jack London’s epic novel, a real-life adventure awaits you.

“Clean your plate and wash the dishes before you go to bed.” -Your mother

I camp in the wilds. It’s peaceful, aesthetic and spiritual. It is a communion with nature. Whether it’s the desert or mountains, I prefer the scent of the wilds.

But wilderness camping has precarious moments.

Sandi and I cranked our way toward Alaska, laboring up mountain grades in the Sawtooth Range of Idaho on Route 75. Late in the day, we came to a river intersecting the highway.

“Let’s follow that dirt path down along the river,” she said. “I bet we find a good camp spot.”

“Could be good for a bath and campfire,” I added. “Let’s do it.”

“I need to adjust my rear derailleur,” Sandi said. “Could you give me a hand with it.”

“If you’ll fix dinner.”

“You rat.”

“I’ll do dishes.”

“Deal.”

We followed the trail that looked as if it would reach the river, yet be out of sight of the road. Two minutes later, we found ourselves in the perfect campsite. Someone had built a rock fire spit in a clearing with a sandy beach on the river twenty feet away. Plenty of firewood lay around the area.

“I’ll grab some wood and start the fire,” I said. “I can check your derailleur before it gets dark.”

“Okay, I’m taking a bath.”

We enjoyed a warm night in June, and mosquitoes didn’t seem to be out in force. Sandi washed up while I started a fire. In a few minutes, flames licked the evening air, lighting up the surrounding trees. Darkness creeped across the land. I pitched the tent and set up the air mattresses and sleeping bags. I stripped the panniers off the bikes and set them inside. With my tool bag in hand, I bent down to check out Sandi’s derailleur. A stretched cable had thrown it off alignment with the freewheel. I tightened it and adjusted the derailleur.

“She’ll shift like greased lightning tomorrow,” I said to Sandi as she returned to camp.

“The water is lovely,” she said. “Hurry up and get a bath before it gets dark. This spot is beautiful.”

“Sure is,” I said as I grabbed my towel and bottle of biodegradable soap.

“I’m making spaghetti, so hurry up. It’ll be ready in fifteen minutes.”

By the time I returned from the river, the steaming pot of spaghetti wafted through the evening air. The flames danced light around the entire area. Sandi poured tomato sauce into a second pan. Minutes later, we gorged ourselves.

“That’s it for me,” I said, “My tummy’s busting at the seams.”

“We better wash the pans.”

“I’ll do it in the morning,” I said, getting up.

“What about raccoons?”

“Don’t worry about them.”

“Okay, if you say so.”

We doused the fire and crawled into the tent. One thing about touring through the mountains—my legs felt weary. I fell asleep in seconds.

Next morning, the sky brightened on the eastern horizon. It was one of those layered, surging, blazing red sunrises that got stopped by stratus clouds low to the horizon. Bursting through the heavens, it brought color to our world. It burned red on the rippling waters of the river, and contrasted with the lush verdant foliage of the trees.

“Frosty, wake up,” Sandi said, nudging me. “You smell anything?”

“Yeah, it smells like…….oh no, it’s…a skunk.” I said, squeezing my nose.

“Look outside the flaps,” Sandi said.

“What do you mean me…why me?”

“You’re closer.”

“You and your weird logic,” I groaned, looking out the flap. “You guessed it…we’ve got a big, fat, stinky skunk checking out our campsite. He’s waddling around the bikes…now he’s headed for the river…now he’s climbing up to the bikes again…whoops, now he’s sniffing the fire pit………now he’s into the saucepan.”

“I told you to wash that thing out.”

“You’re right. I screwed up…..oh good, we’re cool. There he goes back to the river…….ah good, he’s going into the……oh, oh, oh no, he’s headed over here. He’s less than twenty feet away and still coming. I’m gonna’ be sick. He’s coming right for our front door.”

“Quick, close the flap,” Sandi whispered.

“If that black and white stink bomb lifts his tail, we’re done. We can kiss off this trip for the next month. We won’t be able to ride or buy groceries or anything,” I said. “Nobody will be able to stand us for a month of Sundays. I think we’re doomed.”

“We picked a great spot all right,” Sandi added. “That skunk smells like something died inside of a garbage can. Stinking stink bomb anyway. How did we ever get into this one?”

“Dirty dishes,” I admitted. “But how we gonna’ get out of here?”

“See where he is now,” Sandi said.

“What is it with you?” I asked. “Do I look like I have F-O-0-L painted across my forehead?”

“Oh, take a peek.”

“I’m always the one who….” I grumbled, pulling back the flap. “Ohhooooooooo.”

I was nose to nose with the skunk. I froze. I couldn’t speak. I held my breath. Sandi remained motionless in back of me. The skunk’s beady eyes looked through the netting right into mine. If it had been Valentine’s Day, we could have kissed. All the while, her glossy black nose kept sniffing the netting, leaving drool marks across it. I was paralyzed with fright as I slowly lowered the flap.

“I saw my life pass before my eyes,” I whispered to Sandi.

“You look as if you saw a ghost.”

“I’m amazed she didn’t unload on me.”

“Maybe she got a whiff of your morning buffalo breath and knew she was bested.”

“You’re so kind to me, Sandi.”

“Look out now. See what’s happening.”

“Oh no, not me, nope, it’s your turn.”

“Okay, let me see,” Sandi said, lifting the tent flap. “I think it’s gone……..nope, it’s over there by the bikes again…oh, there it goes down along the river……….it’s headed along the bank, away from us.”

We waited another five minutes, but the waddling stink bomb vanished into the woods. Its essence lay in the air like a barnyard full of chickens. I looked over at Sandi.

“Let’s get our gear packed, and get out of here,” I said.

“Does that mean you’re not gonna’ wash dishes?” she said, smirking.

She was right. I had broken the rules of the wilderness, and we both nearly paid a heavy price for it. It’s important to clean dishes and remove all food in a wilderness camp setting. In bear country, food must be hung in a plastic bag 100 yards from camp. It’s even important to wash our faces and brush our teeth to remove food odor.

We flash-packed the bikes and tore out of there as if possessed with something akin to FEAR. But there’s something different about that kind of feeling. We didn’t fear for our lives, but we were afraid of being stunk to high heaven. Reaching the highway, we laughed in relief.

“What was it you said about me having ‘buffalo breath’?” I asked Sandi.

“Just kidding,” she said.

We headed north into the Sawtooth Range. It was a lovely day for bicycling through the fresh air of the mountains. Now, every time I smell a skunk, I remember that morning by the river.

Still can’t figure out how Sandi knows what a buffalo’s breath smells like….

If you work in a school, company, fast food joint, office or any other organization that forces you into contact with other people—you must deal with one or two characters that drive you nuts. They may be arrogant, rude, aggressive or impudent.

They offer you frustrations and, at the same time, lessons on your journey through life.

Did you hear of the older lady driving a Cadillac who aimed her automobile toward a slot in the parking lot near the store? Seconds before she pulled into the space, a young man zipped into her spot in his shiny sports car.

She yelled, “That was my spot you just took.”

“Tough lady,” he said. “I’m younger, quicker and drive a faster car. Deal with it!”

“I will young man,” she said as she slammed her Caddie into reverse, then, back into “Drive.”

She crashed into the back of his sports car—pulverizing it. She backed up and smashed into it two more times.

“You just ruined my car,” he screamed. “Why did you do that?”

“Because I’m old, rich and insured,” she yelled. “Besides, you needed a lesson in manners.”

In life, we find who people who march into our lives become friends, acquaintances and/or irritations; depending on their propensities. Some teach us lessons. They may bring us laughter, joy and anger.

What do you do when someone enters your life that drives you nuts? How do you deal with an obnoxious office mate, sibling, parent or teaching colleague?

First of all, you must realize that living on this planet offers you a “spiritual boot camp” that tests your ability to grow from one task to the next. Every person along the way offers new challenges and lessons.

We maintain responsibility for our own story. We may dance with a weak or wounded self-concept. We may need to be right all the time or protect our image. Or, we can become victims.

You enjoy choice of response to people who irritate you. If your mother irritates you, the easiest method for you to come to terms: sit down with her, talk to her, set the guidelines by which you expect her to act around you and make sure she appreciates your boundaries.

With an office mate that bothers you: sit down, ask them about their passions, their frustrations and their goals. After they provide you with their priorities, you can better gage your response to their actions. Additionally, by showing you care about their lives, you can spell out what you like and don’t like as to interaction in the office.

You must welcome the new you. Become available to something more. You must forgive others who lack balance. Choose a new perspective. You must give them a chance. You may speak in a new and conscious manner.

This topic reminds me of the story of a very irritating and perfectionist Italian mother who brought up her son Alberto by herself. She demanded that everything be “just so.” During dinner, Alberto loved to talk with his grandfather, but as the old man grew more infirmed, he broke a soup bowl because of his palsy. She banished him to the kitchen to eat alone.

Thereafter, Alberto hurried his dinner so he could talk with his grandfather in the kitchen. One night, the old man broke another bowl. At that point, she relegated him to a wooden bowl, which demoted him to the lowest rung on the social ladder.

One night, Alberto failed to show up for dinner. When she found him in his bedroom, he sat on the bed carving a piece of wood into a bowl.

“Why didn’t you come to dinner tonight?” she asked. “Don’t you know it’s rude to miss dinner?”

“Sorry mama,” said Alberto.

“What are you carving?” she asked.

“I am carving a bowl for you when you get to grandfather’s age,” said Alberto.

From that day onward, the mother invited grandfather back to the table to share in the family dinner and mentor her son Alberto.
