Everything Has Turned Upside Down And Stark Raving Crazy
“Cities and governments tolerate crazy people. Companies don’t!” —Geoffrey West
God knows how anyone can watch the news any more. Each day one or more crazy things happen that defy logic, intellect and common sense. For example, why are 70,000 people a year dying of a drug overdose? That doesn’t include the hundreds of thousands (or is it millions) that are “hooked” on drugs. Remember, there would be no drugs crossing our southern border if millions of stupid Americans weren’t consuming the drugs!!!
Why is every 2020 Democrat candidate for president coming out with socialist policies that would play well in Communist China, but hardly in the United States of America? Where were these people born? There is no way they could have been sired by American parents. Or, has Progressive brainwashing been so successful that socialism is now in the main stream?
Why do we let millions of illegal aliens cross our borders and not do everything in our power to stop it, even if that means building fences across the 2,000 plus miles from San Diego to Brownsville? We are the only nation on earth that does not adequately protect its borders. But worse, we are a nation that provides huge incentives for every person in the Western Hemisphere to break down our doors and then demand we pay for them when they enter illegally. Why do legal Americans put up with it? They should fire every politician that supports open borders and refuses to fund the necessary defenses.
Why do we let local, county and state politicians pass sanctuary policies for illegal aliens, thus allowing the illegal criminals to rob, scam, run is down with their cars and kill us?
Why do we give these illegal aliens driver’s licenses and allow them to register to vote, when it is illegal for them to vote?
Why in the Hell did we-the-people let Congress destroy one of the best health care systems on the planet by passing Obama Care? It is now politically unfixable and we did it to ourselves because we didn’t make a loud enough noise against it. We literally sat there and did nothing, while those elite, can-do-no-wrong politicians (all Democrats) screwed us. Why? Because Obama Care was just another ploy by the Democrats to buy votes from those tens of millions of Americans that have allowed themselves to become dependent on government. The cost be damned.
Why did we let the state of New York, or any other state for that matter, pass an abortion law that is outright infanticide and allows the fetus to be killed after birth? What’s next, euthanasia for our seniors? Remember the 1973 movie “Soylent Green” where they turned the remains of euthanized old people into cookies? Could fiction become fact?
Why have we authorized the federal government to establish a Department of Education, (DoED) when education is a state responsibility? Why did we let the DoED nationalize the education of America’s children and establish a curriculum better suited for the children of Russia? American education has become socialist indoctrination. Hitler must be smiling in his grave.
Why did we let the federal government pass so many environmental laws that have effectively repealed the fifth amendment and rendered property ownership a barren right? The American landowner has become an indentured slave to almighty government and the environmentalists. Today, under current environmental law, we could not build the nation’s freeway system. Further, every building project requires a very expensive environmental impact statement that does nothing but force the builder, or the taxpayer, to pay for the weapon that will shoot him in the foot.
And why have we found it necessary to protect every wetland in America to save the planet, when 12,000 years ago over one third of the earth’s surface was covered by an ice sheet over one mile thick? There were no wetlands under the ice sheet. How DID the earth and its plants and animals survive without all those wetlands? What happened to reason, logic and common sense?
Why is it we have allowed government and the environmentalists to perpetrate one of the world’s greatest con games ever devised on the people under the guise of alleged man-caused global warming? Why are the people allowing government to burn up their tax money by the trillions for an alleged disaster that hasn’t happened and has little to no basis in science?
Why are college kids dying under barbaric initiation rituals? What makes a college kid think that it is a good idea to force another college kid to drink a gallon of 180-proof alcohol until he’s dead? We know that high school and college kids tend to leave their common sense at home when they arrive at college, but outright murder when you know better, isn’t just criminal, it’s crazy.
Why are urban ethnic groups robbing and killing each other at unprecedented rates? Why are their cultures breaking down? Why has the tried, true and tested family unit of father, mother and child become out of style or passé, a family unit that was and still is a culture’s answer to cultural stability?
Why have we allowed our standards of decency to descend into the gutter? Why have we allowed debauchery, swearing, violence and gratuitous sex in movies and TV to become commonplace? If we go see the movies or watch TV and accept these lower standards without any outcry, we effectively condone them.
Why is it that high-level officers at the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation found it perfectly OK to break the law and stage a silent coup against a sitting president, by opening an investigation against him in search of a crime? If we can’t trust the top law enforcement agencies of our country to play by the rules and the rule of law, a little thing like a constitution won’t make any difference. Everyone knows that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Is that the Alice-in-Wonderland rabbit hole Americans have decided to go down ….. at their own peril?
Why is it that the DOJ or FBI decided that a heavily-armed, overwhelming S.W.A.T team was necessary to take Roger Stone into custody for a process crime, while other politicians, guilty of the same offense, are wondering around free as a bird? Shall we name names? How about Hillary Clinton who lied to Congress and destroyed evidence that was under a Congressional subpoena. How about Huma Abedin, advisor to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, ex-wife of sex pervert Anthony Weiner, who also lied to Congress. How about Assistant FBI director Andrew McCabe who not only lied to Congress and other agencies, but whose wife received huge sums of money from Democrats for her political campaign, a huge conflict of interest for her husband Andrew, who was investigating both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump? And why isn’t former FBI director under investigation for taking classified information out of his office when he was fired by Trump? Why hasn’t an FBI S.W.A.T team descended on their homes at the break of day with guns drawn to take them into custody? The list of perpetrators goes on and on but accountability is nowhere to be found.
But our lives are a mysterious contradiction. On the one hand we constantly observe idiotic events that make no sense at all, like the ones we have just described. But on the other hand we observe man’s humanity to man in so many different ways. If we are in trouble, others come to our rescue, sometimes at great risk to themselves. First responders and citizens pull people out of burning houses, or cars, or rescue them from drowning in frozen ponds. During national disasters, we come together as if we were all related by blood. If we are truly bad in heart and soul, then why do we reach out a helping hand to people we don’t even know? As a culture we are one of the most generous on the planet. We share our good fortune with others in ways too numerous to describe.
So how can these two sides co-exist? It is as if we live on a schizophrenic teeter-totter with one side weighing down the other side and then the opposite side reversing the process, in a delicate balance of alleged sanity. But what if the bad side, the crazy side, the debauchery side, overwhelms the sane, reasonable and commonsense side? The delicate balance is gone forever and our culture collapses, which is the direction we are headed.
Just recently we heard President Trump give the State of the Union address. Sadly, the “State of the Union” as proffered by the President, only tells a small portion of the real “State of the Union.” What we describe in the first paragraphs of this article and in our short VIDEO, appears to be the giant share of that “state”, but not addressed by the President. In contrast, the other side of the “State of the Union” is that we are a people of fairness, empathy and generosity.
Nevertheless, truth and history tells us that if we give up on honesty, integrity, honor and morality, if we strangle ourselves in a morass of millions of laws, rules and regulations, if we abandon economic principles, if we forsake decency standards, if we give up on the foundation of our freedom and liberty, as codified into law under the U. S. Constitution, we have no hope to remain as “We the People” governing ourselves under a Constitutional Republic and in pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. We will become just another third-world socialist country in a bleak life of shared misery. The Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Shumer crowd and the current crop of crazy socialist presidential candidates will have won.
If that is what you want, you are not far from receiving it. If that ISN’T what you want, you better be prepared for a long, protracted and maybe even bloody, fight. The crazies among us are only going to get crazier and our once-balanced teeter-totter life will be resting on the ground on the crazy side.

The “people” keep electing the same dolts every election cycle. As an example, Michigan Democrat representative John Dingle just died a few days ago after serving almost 60 years (1955 to 2015) in the House of Representatives. John’s father served two decades before him. Nepotism is alive and well. Dingle, the longest serving representative, was behind the passage of Medicare, Medicaid and Obama Care, all socialist programs. His life-long dream was Medicare-for-all. Does that sound familiar?
Scientist Isaac Newton once said: “If I have seen farther than others, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.” Newton did not make all previous scientific discoveries all by himself that he used for his own discoveries. It is the accumulation of scientific knowledge by thousands of other scientists that came before him, that allowed Newton to be one of the premier scientists of his time.
It is the Progressives, the liberals, the Democrats, the socialists and the Marxists (identical “Quintuplets”) that err on the side of over-regulation, control, manipulation, cajoling, herding and taxing those over which they have political power. These “Quintuplets” buy off large segments of the masses with promises from the public treasury and then turn them against those that must, by force of law, fill the public treasury. To rile up the bought-off masses, they vilify and demean those forced to pay, creating an irrational, irreconcilable divide between rich and poor. Sadly, the masses are too stupid to know they are being duped, being blinded by the beneficiaries of government largess.
But then most of you know all this by now since her face is on the national news almost every night. The question is, is she worthy of the attention she is getting? Does she represent the NEW FACE OF AMERICA? The mainstream media and the Democrats would have us think so.
It has been said that the American system of government and justice is the best system on the planet. But after many years of observing the antics of the nutcases in the political, bureaucratic and judicial asylum, by an octogenarian, that ain’t saying anything special. If what exists today is the best we can do, then America, its people and freedom are in real trouble.
Perhaps you think that you are secure in your person, your home, your papers and other effects as the Fourth Amendment implies. Were you aware that government agents and law enforcement can lawfully come up on your porch (trespass) and knock on your door so that they can talk to you? That’s right. It’s called the “knock and talk” provision handed down in two U. S. Supreme Court decision that grants government agents and law enforcement an “implied license” to talk to you whether you grant them permission or not. No, they can’t search your home without a search warrant, (maybe) but that is no solace when two armed law enforcement officers suddenly show up on your doorstep demanding to talk to you, as what happened to us in response to an article we had written. One of those officers knocked on our door and the other officer stood about 12 feet away with his hand on his gun. Yes, we WERE intimidated!
free to enslave those it purports to represent. The government owns the law and the capability to enforce it, by whatever means and they are determined to use that force if you get out of line. You are just in their way in their quest for absolute power under a one-world government. If they succeed, sovereignty and international borders will be meaningless. The people will be crammed into crowded cities where they are more easily controlled. Environmentalists will wall off all rural areas from from humans where only animals and birds can roam free. Freedom will be a small entry in a dusty history book that sits behind thousands of other books, in an old communist library.
enough of the script to keep commerce and the exchange of goods and services within the colonies, in balance. When King George and the Bank of England heard of this, they quickly passed legislation in the House of Commons to require that all taxes to the crown would be paid in gold and silver. Then in further retaliation the British government increased the taxes on the colonies in the form of the Stamp Act and taxes on Tea. This act by the British quickly depleted the gold and silver of the colonies and led to a virtual depression. The only outcome of this was to force the colonials between a rock and a hard place, leading them to revolt against the King. In response to the revolt of the New World colonials, the King sent in the troops and the guns and a revolution was born. If you don’t think that history will repeat itself, you will find that the artificial bubble you are living in is a mirage.
$6,000 per year. If we “let all 5 Billion poor people in” as Linda suggests, the cost would be in the neighborhood of $30,000,000,000,000 (that’s trillion folks) per year, on a current Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of around $19,000,000,000,000. (And you think our current national debt is bad.) But then of course we would all be living like sardines in a can (or rats in a cage) ruled by a brutal dictator, in a state of constant fear, chaos and war. We describe such a scenario in our article entitled: “
macabre series of experiments conducted at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). He had placed several rats in a laboratory in a converted barn where – protected from disease and predation and supplied with food, water and bedding – they bred rapidly. The one thing they were lacking was space, a fact that became increasingly problematic as what he liked to describe as his “rat city” and “rodent utopia” teemed with animals. Unwanted social contact occurred with increasing frequency, leading to increased stress and aggression. Following the work of the physiologist, Hans Selye, it seemed that the adrenal system offered the standard binary solution: fight or flight. But in the sealed enclosure, flight was impossible. Violence quickly spiraled out of control. Cannibalism and infanticide followed. Males became hypersexual, pansexual and, an increasing proportion, homosexual. Calhoun called this vortex “a behavioral sink”. Their numbers fell into terminal decline and the population tailed off to extinction. At the experiments’ end, the only animals still alive had survived at an immense psychological cost: asexual and utterly withdrawn, they clustered in a vacant huddled mass. Even when reintroduced to normal rodent communities, these “socially autistic” animals remained isolated until death. In the words of one of Calhoun’s collaborators, rodent “utopia” had descended into “hell”.
Corruption in government also grows and politicians pander to the high dense urban populations (the mobs) for their votes by giving away “free” stuff, with the “free” stuff being stolen from taxpayers by unconstitutional law. Cities, almost wholly dependent on government for survival, started moving left towards socialism. Normal populations started giving sway to the growing demands of zealots, lunatics and fringe communities. Common sense, logic and intellect were and are being replaced by liberal propaganda and political correctness to the point that the entire American population was and is being systematically brainwashed. After eight years of Obama’s fundamental transformation, by 2018 the normal fringe elements (zealots and lunatics) of the bell shaped curve had more than doubled in size from 1955. Our society was and is manufacturing birdbrains and criminals at greater frequencies.
Once again a massive migration began westward across the mountains, the plains, the deserts and the forests. Americans were on the move again for that insatiable desire to own land and be free. They traveled by horseback and they came by covered wagon and they came by foot. They faced unspeakable obstacles in their path. From unmerciful weather, to steep mountains, deserts and rushing rivers to cross, to hostile Indians, to dust, to locus, they just kept coming. Many made it all the way to the Pacific and started a new life in the Sun. Many died along the way.
burning down! We are engaged in a 10-alarm fire but so few seem to care, or don’t know what to do. Unexplainably, Conservatives haven’t even employed their first line of defense in a fire and that is to engage fully committed “fire fiighters.” Sure there are token efforts to fight Progressivism going on all across the country, but the token efforts are too small, mostly rudderless and hopelessly underfunded. Only a massive, nation wide effort has any chance to peacefully undo what Progressives have done to this country while the rest of us watched. Is our only alternative to peace and freedom, war?
Another way TV car advertisers lie is to put the disclaimer information in such small print you can’t read it. But even if it was in larger print, you couldn’t read it anyway because the disclaimer only appears on the screen for a few seconds. Obviously, the advertiser puts up the disclaimer on the screen to comply with the law. But what good is a disclaimer if you can’t read it?
TV programs, movies and other forms of entertainment, perpetuate the violence. We won’t admit it, but the news media and “Hollywierd” are the carriers of the violence disease. Is it any wonder that our society has become more violent?
learned academics would have us believe. That goodness lies at the center of the natural family and the love that binds families together. It is both biological and spiritual at the same time. Some will say that this special kind of family “glue” is a gift from our creator. Others will say that it is natural, as coming from nature. Both may be saying the same thing.
that mandated the teaching to children of 5th through 8th grades, the U. S. Constitution and how the U. S. Government works, purportedly as lessons in civics. We investigated further. In the legislation, two textbooks were mentioned as being required for study. The first was “WE THE PEOPLE” and the second was “PROJECT CITIZEN”.
separation at the southern border due to irrational Democratic pressure and U. S. District court decisions, the word traveled like a wildfire to Central and South America. On September 13, 2018, DHS reported a huge spike in the number of families crossing into the U. S. seeking asylum. Of course, we have to take them all in under U. S. law.
lawyer, or a judge, or those that hold power over others like politicians or bureaucrats, are held to a higher standard of “normal”, “reasonable” and “prudent”, than that of the common man. A physician can hold the power of life or death over a patient, or an accident victim, and by logic has an extra duty to exercise the utmost care, in keeping with his training and experience. If not and bodily injury or death occurs, he or she could be guilty of negligence, gross negligence, or extreme negligence.
But justice is more than lawyers, court clerks, judges, dockets and courts. Justice is also measured how a person is treated by government agents or law enforcement. The IRS, the EPA and the BLM can be thought of as Gestapo like agencies that have the power to steal your property, fine you into oblivion, or throw your sorry caboose in jail. The stories of private citizens being harassed and tormented by government agencies, is legendary. What they do in the name of bureaucratic rules, or outright corruption, is anything but justice in an allegedly free country. Here is an IRS story where justice was not only blind, but was arrogant, corrupt and deadly at the same time:
further believe that the U. S. Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land, a Supreme Law that mentions nothing about socialism, much less government dependency. Just the opposite is true. These millions of freedom-loving Americans believe strongly in natural, God Given, unalienable rights, individual freedom, self-reliance and personal responsibility. The contrast between these two groups of Americans is so stark that compromise or co-existence becomes not just problematic, but virtually impossible. They are in fact oil and water that never mix. Those that represent the people in government (politicians) are a direct reflection of the American mindset. Thus, this stark contrast in mindset is why the U. S. Congress has become an impotent legislative body and an impediment to good government under the Constitution.
care and cash to the lazy able bodied and the fried brain deadbeats of society that have been brainwashed into believing that everything they get is “free.” The cost of all the hundreds of federal, state and local socialist programs is irrelevant to them just so long as the government keeps their checks coming every month.
lion’s share of all these fatherless children. In a report put out by the Fatherless Children Initiative, they estimate that the cost to the taxpayer for fatherless children is $99,800,000,000 (that’s billion). As a responsible taxpayer, why should you have to pay for irresponsible men and women that sire and bear fatherless children they can’t support? Because government says we are obligated to do it and if we don’t, we go to jail. And we call that freedom?
3 billion people — live on less than $2.50 a day. More than 1.3 billion live in extreme poverty — less than $1.25 a day. 1 billion children worldwide are living in poverty. Exacerbating the poverty are huge populations living under vicious dictators, or are the victims of brutal wars. At only 4.3% of the total world population, America can’t be the safe haven for half the world’s population who are poor, or are victims of poverty, famine and war. IN SPITE OF WHAT THE SOCIALIST DEMOCRATS ARE TELLING US, WE CAN’T LET THEM ALL IN WITHOUT SINKING OUR OWN SHIP ….. NOR SHOULD WE!
100 years. The reason it has is because way too many people are lazy in mind and body and it is always easier to believe in fairy tales and “free” lunches (promises from politicians) than it is in the irrefutable and natural principles of liberty. Freedom and liberty are hard and they were won at great sacrifice. It takes courage, self-reliance, independence and personal responsibility to live in freedom and defend it. In contrast, socialism, communism and collectivism are easy. All you have to do is to capitulate and hand over your free will, your life and your possessions to the collective (Socialist Democrats). Some people do it because they figure the world owes them something. Others do it because they are weak and find freedom too hard. Still others do it because they have a legitimate need.
implement environmental goals. Once environmentalism was legislatively triggered, national and international interests radicalized it. Radical environmentalism was and is now fully indoctrinated into the American psyche, taught in our public schools and colleges and propagandized by national and international governments, environmental groups and corporations. Environmentalism is not a science it is in fact a cult.
experiences and knowledge and other influences from a variety of sources, gleaned over the years of their lifetime. Sometimes those beliefs and opinions evolve into new beliefs as they accumulate new information. Sometimes the beliefs become firm and fixed no matter what new information comes their way. As a general rule, our political beliefs are heavily influenced by what our parents believe and the actions they took, or are now taking, in furtherance of those beliefs.” As the population ages and the older generation begins to die off, the general beliefs and opinions of that generation die off with them and those general beliefs and opinions of that generation are replaced by the emerging generation. That is why President Reagan said: ‘Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.‘”
Republic out of a perception that the vision of our Founding Fathers will be forever enshrined in the annals of politics and the halls of government. That would be true except for the human failings of greed, lust and power that build up over time when left unattended. The Founding Fathers warned us that government could eventually evolve into political favors, bribery, pay offs, double dealing, corruption, collusion, conspiracy and racketeering ….. if the people let it. The sad reality is, we have. Some of the people are trying to undo the government cabal, while millions of other Americans like it just the way it is, because they are freely profiting from our increasingly corrupt, unconstitutional system.
There is Comey and Mueller, friends for many years.
population will even know about the laws, or understand them, or know of their consequences or penalties for violation, much less be in compliance with them. The consequence of too many laws is that huge segments of the public are totally unaware of their existence. And yet, under the law, ignorance of the law is not a defense. Then, when the hapless individual comes face-to-face with the law, it results in anger and frustration for that individual and a spiraling degradation of freedom and liberty for all of us.”
Republican votes with a mandate to disrupt the establishment and dismantle the deep state. He dipped a hot poker into their elite enclaves, while ripping to shreds their socialist platform. He began to expose the DC political machine for what it was on day one and went after the dishonest media with a vengeance. In a breath of individual liberty fresh air, he has resurrected some American foundational principles and is attempting to make America great again in the image of our Founders …..in spite of the massive efforts to stop him.
on oath that their version of the truth is the only “true” one, despite the testimony of two other witnesses that tell a totally different account of the accident. The “truth” might be pieced together by fragments in each of the three testimonies, and then again, maybe not. Therefore, it can only be concluded that history is an individual perception, or observation of events, not necessarily a factual representation.
Blacks and Latinos take aim at Whites. Whites aren’t very fond of Black and Latino intransigence, or the Black Lives Matter movement.
have state sales taxes, the time necessary to fill out each state form and write a check and mail to each state would literally overwhelm a sole proprietor. Larger companies will be forced to hire one or more administrative personnel to manage the forms and taxes for each state.
scientists also tell us that CO2 is the major culprit in forcing the temperature increase. But of that 2% of greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) is only 3.62% of that 2%. Man’s contribution to GHG is 3.4%, of that 3.62%, of that 2%, or 0.00246%. Even if CO2 in the atmosphere is the great forcer of climate change, as climate scientists would have us believe, man’s contribution to that force is so miniscule as to be well within the statistical measurement error rate.
have willingly abdicated their unalienable rights for money that was theirs in the first place. Every admonition by the Founding Fathers has been realized and several generations of once-free Americans have no clue as to the depths of the profound loss of their freedom and the irretrievable dilution of state power. State lines and state autonomy under the 9th and 10th Amendments are an illusion. We are the nation of federal America, not the United States of America.
But America is not all blue. If you look at a county map of America, the majority of the counties are red.

the total population won freedom for the other 97.3%. Approximately 8,000 colonial fighting men gave their lives for freedom. Another 17,000 Americans died of disease during the war and around 25,000 men were wounded or maimed. The remaining 2,800,000 colonial inhabitants were set free from British rule by the extreme sacrifice of 80,000 patriots. How many patriots must sacrifice their lives to set 320,000,000 Americans free from the aristocratic, dictatorial rule of America’s Establishment Class, high paid lobbyists and the big city Democrat vote? Which Americans will engage in the battle to “secure our unalienable rights, where once again, governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed?” (Provided the “governed” know what freedom is and are willing to defend it.)
What hogwash. For God’s sake people, we fought a revolution to be free of Kings, Queens, royalty, the elite and the bankers. Now we glorify them?
your “hole”. At first, you don’t feel the impact of the laws and you can still slosh around. It’s a minor inconvenience and you ignore it. The slurry (law) rises a little bit more and you bitch and moan about increasing restrictions, but still you ignore the cause of the rising mud. Your freedom of movement becomes more restricted each day as the slurry (flurry of laws) grows exponentially. The laws are designed by special interests to inflict greater restrictions on the people to implement some narrow focus agenda. The laws are passed by immoral legislators who pander to the special interests so that they can buy votes and retain their political power.
we had social studies, the benefits of multi-culturalism, the positive effects of massive immigration from poor countries, how humans are killing the planet with carbon dioxide emissions, collectivism is the only true way for people to interact and individualism is selfish, the stereotypical myths about marriage, sex and transgender people, the merging of nations into world government, how political correctness can be used in society in order not to offend people, and some more stuff I can’t remember.
into the general population while waiting on a deportation or an asylum judicial hearing. Democrats! What made Democrats think that illegal aliens so released, would ever show up for their court case? Or, did Democrats orchestrate this whole debacle for the sole purpose of gaining future votes, knowing full well peasant immigrants from poor countries would vote Democrat?
What economic magnets draw these illegal alien invaders across our borders? Very generous safety net benefits; free housing; free, bi-lingual education; free health care and a Federal Government that does not adequately enforce current laws against hiring illegal aliens. Added to this gross negligence by the Federal Government, are cities, counties, states and churches that set up sanctuary policies, giving a free pass to illegal aliens, or a place to hide.
you read the part where it says, ‘Owner(s) refuse to permit any access, search, audit, assessment, or inspection whatsoever of this property without the presentation of a warrant, prepared as prescribed by the 4th and 14th Amendments to the U. S.’ ….. unless you have my written or verbal permission, which you don’t.” What part of that sign don’t you understand?”
and exploits the weakest in the society for their votes with the funds in the public treasury and turns them into a voting mob, a mob that demands by force of law that the strongest and most capable among us must pay for the mob’s subsistence. This is an exact definition of Karl Marx’s failed socialist ideology, “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.” The Progressives have in fact, over time, created a government in America, under a distorted form of Democracy that uses and manipulates the weakest among us for the sole benefit of the manipulators and their hold on political power.
land. I refused. More sloughs were filled in, a county road made lower in some areas and higher across my property. Trees with Eagles nests were bulldozed. The only thing left alive, were the mosquitoes. The chum salmon get swooshed onto my fields where they flop around and die. The rivers depth went from 21 feet to 9 feet due to the increased sediment and debris thrown into the river, thus destroying fish spawning areas. Much of their so-called restoration work was done in the dead of night so that it would go unnoticed by the locals.” 
A deranged NFL football player, possibly high on drugs, alcohol, steroids, narcissism, or too many bumps on the head from football skirmishes, pumps nine bullets into the mother of his 3-month old baby and then publicly commits suicide in front of his coach with a handgun. An out-of-his-skull idiot, doing an imitation of Batman’s nemesis, the Joker, dons body armor and arms himself with an AR-15 and some handguns, open fires in a theater in Aurora, Colorado and kills and wounds dozens of people.
No, America’s military or national guard have not taken up residence in a person’s home (the 3rd Amendment) ….. yet, but heavily armed SWAT teams have invaded the wrong person’s home on way too many occasions.
take up to 95% of an owner’s property, or the right of use of an owner’s property. When environmental protection laws were passed in the early 1970’s it meant that the government could stop a landowner from using up to 95% of his or her property for environmental reasons before government would have to pay. Government might just as well confiscate all of a person’s property, since 95% is essentially all of a person’ property. Even though you lose the right of use of your property from government action, you still have to pay property taxes for the entire property. The elimination of property rights continued un-abated by Congress and the High Court in coming years.
The state has the right to demand of every racial comrade [Peoplesgenosse] that he live according to the law. Whoever violates the laws of the state will be punished. The state has officials to execute its laws and regulations. The constitution of the state is the basis for its legislation. The state embodies power! In the state men of different opinions and different outlook can live beside each other. The state cannot demand that all men be of the same opinion. It can, however, demand that all men observe its laws.
At first, Jessica and Tom beamed with joy. They couldn’t wait to tell everyone the news about little Billy and how uncommonly delightful he was. The news of his birth and his uniqueness spread far and wide. People traveled many miles to see little Billy, as if he was the magnet and they were the paper clip. Jessica and Tom had brought this beautiful child into the world that seemed to be the promise of all things good, wholesome and true.

gaining and maintaining perpetual political and financial power in the United States and must be held accountable. This in no way absolves Republican federal political office holders, the Republican Party and the Republican National Committed for committing similar acts.
ignoramus politicians, (amnesty) is to encourage more illegal aliens to cross over the border and go into hiding in the bowels of America, never to be seen again, except at the welfare office, or the DMV, or until they kill, shoot, run over, or rob a lawful American citizen and get caught.
Corruption started when man invented politics, some 5 to 6,000 years ago. There always has been political corruption and there will always be political corruption because the propensity towards corruption is a human failing, especially for those who hold political or religious power over the masses, or control over large sums of money. The only thing that holds corruption in check is the people. If the people don’t care and will not hold those that govern them accountable, political corruption grows and becomes institutionalized, just like it is now in America and has been in Europe and the rest of the world for centuries.
shall be uniform throughout the United States.” (Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 of the U. S. Constitution.)
Latinos, women, illegal aliens, or even free loaders, or anyone else that finds it necessary to be dependent on government. The Democrats only care about the votes they can garner by promising some benefit or cold hard cash, stolen from the public treasury, and handed out to the government dependents in some large constituency group.
On that fateful day in April 2014, the BLM assembled a large team of armed agents to oversee the rounding up of Bundy’s cattle by a private contractor and then positioned snipers (snipers mind you) and surveillance cameras on the high ground surrounding the ranch. What was the BLM afraid of?
California, that just legalized recreational marijuana in 2018, is set to rake in many hundreds of millions of dollars more than Washington State. They need that money to fund all those Democrat-sponsored social programs, the rising drug-infested homeless population, heroin injection stations and the millions of illegal aliens sucking up millions more taxpayer dollars, or killing legal Americans, as in Kate Steinle. Meanwhile, the state of California and its people are set to get on a permanent buzz from legal marijuana. Driving a car now becomes even more perilous. How nice!
more in taxes to pay those who won’t work and want something for nothing, using the power of government to get it, in a grand scheme of wealth re-distribution. This “scheme” is socialism by any other name. If the urban beggars and whiners don’t get their way, they resort to violence, property damage and mayhem. This display of “Gimee! Gimee! Gimee!” is disgusting and not worthy of a people who once called them selves free, sovereign and independent.
But there is one other very real part of our lives we should cherish above any of the five senses, or an arm, or a leg. That very real part of our lives in America is the freedom of “choice”. The freedom to choose to do what you want provided what you do hurts no one else. That includes the freedom of movement, the freedom of what to buy, the freedom to spend your hard earned money as you see fit, the freedom of what to wear, the freedom of where to live, the freedom of where to work and the kind of work you want to do, the freedom to be different, the freedom to live on and use your land without undue government restriction, the freedom to roam freely throughout America without having to go through check points and body searches and the freedom from excessive taxation and regulation.
citation against U. S. Attorney General Eric Holder. In collusion between President Obama and AG Holder, Obama claimed presidential privilege and information naming the perpetrators at ATF who supplied the guns was shielded. What did we learn? Nothing! Who went to jail? No one!
The jury was composed of six men and six women. Three of those jurors were immigrants. It is not known whether the immigrants were legal or illegal but that contingent of immigrants may very well have played a role in a “not guilty” verdict. The killer pulled the trigger but the sanctuary city mindset was tattooed on the bullet.
So why are millennials going for socialism? One only needs to look at our public schools and liberal colleges to figure that one out. At least three generations of teachers, parents and young adults have been indoctrinated in collectivism, multi-culturalism, political correctness, socialism, radical environmentalism and the one-world-order mantra. Academia has gone so far left that it does everything in its power to silence any other point of view, including using violence, harassment and intimidation. Check out the riots on college campuses these days against conservative ideas.
We can’t control our borders, or legal, or illegal immigration because some bleeding-heart liberals take every effort by this Administration to control the borders to their favorite liberal judge who then blocks the effort in federal court, forcing the Administration to go to the U. S. Supreme Court to get their immigration law passed. It’s nuts!
But the behavior of individuals living tightly in big cities produces its own share of problems. High crime rates and noise, air and water pollution are just a few of the consequences. Big cities require large police forces to enforce laws and civility. Big cities dump their concentrated pollution on the environment and then expect everyone else to comply with environmental protection, except the inhabitants of big cities. Big cities are very expensive and a massive drain on the national economy.
How did we get here? We changed our original direction based on individual liberty, towards a collective society, heavily influenced by a human-created ideology solely based on seeking political power by exploiting the weaknesses of mankind and offering “free” gifts (money) in exchange for votes. This flawed ideology has infected all of our institutions and the culture itself and has sent our sovereign nation careening towards a very high, vertical cliff with the final result being national, culture and sovereign annihilation. The people of America know no other way because they have no memory of the way it was, purposely removed from memory by this human-created flawed ideology that tells them that dependency on government is their only secure and safe reality.
Without the land, there would be no farming, ranching, mining, timber harvesting, recreation, or even us. However, our land is under a vicious assault by government and environmentalists. The greatest threat facing rural landowners today is the encroaching, egregious and unconstitutional environmental regulations that are sweeping every corner of rural America. In most cases, these regulations violate the 5th Amendment to the Constitution where it states:
As countries grow and population increases, as diversion of interests propagate, as divisions in agendas spread wider apart, as governments, corporations, businesses, unions and special interest groups get larger and larger, a point is reached where the foundations of our culture and the ability to control our own individual lives under that foundation, begins to breakdown. We are well past that point now and we are truly out of control, where politics takes precedence over reason and common sense, where our “fixes” don’t work, where rules are meant to be broken, where more rules become necessary and enforcement of all the rules becomes much more difficult.
What became immediately apparent from the story is that the big business – big government collusion, racketeering swamp was well oiled and working like it always does when awash in big money. Many of the DEA attorneys responsible for investigating and prosecuting illegal opioid distribution were spirited away with the offer of big salaries by the major drug distributors, who then lobbied for the drug distributors to obtain favorable legislation in Congress. Since most members of Congress have no honor, on either side of the aisle, the offer of big money for their next campaign (or money in their pockets) is too tempting to pass up. One of the sponsors of the bill that severely limited DEA opioid drug enforcement was appointed by the President to become the next Drug Czar.
According to the purveyors of climate change, the science is settled and anyone who disagrees with the alleged “science” should be prosecuted for providing false information to the public. If a person can be prosecuted for denying climate change, then every politician who ever engaged in a political campaign should be in jail for lying.
As the above image reflects, America is approaching economic and sovereign Armageddon directly due to Progressivism. A massive, financial, nation-destroying avalanche is coming and all Americans are standing on the very top of that avalanche, while being totally oblivious to the imminent danger. If they do know, they don’t care.
On November 8, 2016 the American people assessed the damage inflicted on the nation by years of collectivist mis-government and delivered a thundering verdict at the polls. The election of Donald Trump signaled the culmination of one process in our politics and the beginning of another. What culminated was the growing disenchantment of the American public with shopworn practices generally called “liberal” but which in their devotion to big government and hostility to individual freedom are in fact illiberal and reactionary.
The only reason they lobby for and pass unconstitutional socialist legislation is to buy these groups off for their votes. In their politically driven hearts they care not one whit for these groups. Sadly, they cannot help themselves because after five generations of liberal indoctrination, this Progressive genetic disease is firmly embedded in their gene pool.” —Ron Ewart
Most of the policies the UN promotes and attempts to implement internationally, are based on socialist and Karl Marx principles. Its alleged objectives are to promote human rights, foster social and economic development, protect the environment and provide humanitarian aid in cases of famine, natural disasters, or armed conflict. The UN, for all intent and purposes, has become an international body that tries to enforce those socialist policies on all member states across the globe. America capitulates to the policies of the UN, while the rest of the countries, like Russia and China, thumb their noses at them. We “pay,” while the two other super powers get off scot-free and then get in our way when we try to use the UN to perform its stated objectives.
Last week in our article entitled “
One of the print and electronic news media’s flawed policies is personified in one statement: “….. if it bleeds, it leads“. Instantly, our news is distorted by the negativity, bias and general acceptance of almost any kind of violence. Transportation and vehicle accidents, war, pestilence, riots, famine, genocide, floods, hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, tsunamis and the like, dominate the front pages of our newspapers and are the lead stories for evening Television news. On the other side of the negative picture we get political and individual corruption, fraud, adultery, betrayal, treason, murder, robbery and unbridled greed, added to our daily diet of information. Every little sordid detail is trotted out for those who gorge on the grief of others, or thrive on doom and gloom, in soap-opera fashion.
“You think back and wonder how you got here. You briefly remember while you were flying free, a voice in the distance said: “come into my home and I will take care of you.” You had many troubles and the thought that someone else would sooth your savage breast and stroke your fevered brow was so enticing you thought it foolhardy not to enter their house ….. especially since the help would be free.”
marriages and nations begin to crumble. And so it is, as the divide between Americans grows wider, as the principles of our freedom are eroded by the actions of those who seek more power over the masses and those who seek to live off the sweat of others, America is beginning to come apart at the seams, as the resentment towards opposing views becomes even more acrimonious.
It all started one Sunday when I was working one of my fields with a tractor, preparing the field for the next round of hay for the season. The exhaust pipe of the tractor was belching black smoke, as it usually did. The old diesel engine kept on chugging in a low staccato, as it always did, old reliable as it was.
From climate change, to ethanol made out of corn, to wind and solar energy and now to electric cars, these con games have escalated into a full-blown racketeering enterprise where the rich and politicians get richer and the people get poorer …. from a bald-faced lie. Americans especially have been played for suckers because most of these “games” that government and the environmentalists are playing have a second purpose ….. wealth re-distribution to the rest of the world. That was and is what the Paris Climate Accord was all about. Why do you suppose Europe was all for it and moaned and groaned when Trump pulled the plug on the Accord? Europe and the other 192 UN countries want American dollars ….. for free. Trump’s action is probably one of the most sane things an American president has done in decades.
In the spirit of surprising civilized behavior, one by one, the landowner’s stories came pouring out, sometimes punctuated with a few expletives, sometimes with passion bordering on wanting to do physical harm to the perpetrators of their extended grief. Words like Gestapo, brown shirts, Nazism, communism and socialism were frequently on the lips of the landowners, as they related their individual experiences with land use code enforcement officers.
Our guilty conscience is working overtime these days. It seems, according to many politicians and pundits, that we and the rest of productive humanity, are somehow responsible for the inequities and social injustices being perpetrated on the poor, who are trapped in “poor-dom,” by those of us who are a little better well off. The pundits and politicians want to rectify this tragic injustice (and have) by doing what the socialist Karl Marx advanced, and that is to “take from those with the greatest capability (those of us who are a little better well off) and turn our sweat, blood, tears, effort and money over to those with the greatest need”, you know, those poor folks who are forever trapped in “poor-dom.” Who gets the job of turning our tax money over to those hapless victims, the government of course, the great champion of the poor, the aged and the downtrodden, or the Blacks, Latinos and the LGBT crowd ….. in exchange for votes.
We will describe a few details on what the people have gotten, at the hands of a rogue, out-of-control and Hell bent on domination of the masses, government. These events taken one at a time in and of themselves do not necessarily cause any alarm. However, taken in their totality should raise the hackles and the fear of even the most naive American. Some of these events are well known. A few however, have received a bored ho hum from the media.
And so it has been. John was off by a couple of days but he was right about the celebration of “Independence Day” by ALL succeeding generations.
One might ask how did this come about? It happened quite simply actually, without anyone being aware of it. First, America went from an agrarian culture to an industrial culture in the middle to late 1800’s. Small cities began to grow into big cities to feed industrialization. Chicago literally blew up almost overnight when the trains came and because of its centralized location to the grain and livestock resources of the mid West. Being situated on Lake Michigan also allowed ship and barge travel to and from the Eastern big cities.
We further stated to Agent Lewis that: The IRS is grossly incompetent and frankly, we grow weary and irritated by the constant barrage of 45-day, 60-day and 90-day letters from the IRS, from multiple IRS Offices, that are never answered and letters stating that taxes are due when they are not due. As a testament to that incompetence, a few months ago we received an IRS Demand Notice for over $12,000 that the IRS says we owe for Calendar-Year 2015, except that the Demand Notice was addressed to a person in California, not us. Nevertheless, the IRS letter said we owed it. It is a criminal act for the IRS to send us a Notice for another taxpayer, containing their name, address and social security number. If we were dishonest we could use that information for unlawful purposes. In fact, the IRS Agent that sent that Demand Notice to us, violated 26 USC Section 6103 for releasing confidential taxpayer information to an unauthorized third party. Such a violation of Section 6103 is a felony and is punishable by a fine up to $5,000 and imprisonment of not more than five (5) years, or both. (26 USC Section 7213) Will this IRS Agent be punished for her crime ….. probably not? But if we did it, we could end up in jail.
Understand that we are not making or taking a moral position in what transpired. Nor are we taking sides in the conflict. We are only describing the events that led up to the passage of the 14th Amendment, to demonstrate to what links government will go to get what they want.
“Roughly six months after the audit, I received a Notice of Lien stating that if the company didn’t pay up, the government would seize bank accounts and other assets because my time to file an appeal with the Tax Court had run out. Additional penalties and interest had been added to the original amount. However, there was nothing attached to the Notice of Lien indicating that they had acknowledged my dispute of the charges, or recognized my FOIA request. I was devastated. The IRS could literally put us out of business. I had to act immediately, but I didn’t know what I should do next. It is what I did next that started a parade of events over which I had no control.”
But this week we delve into the heavy hand of government on private citizens and in this case a Virginia farmer. His story should send shivers up and down the back of every American but only a very few will see the whole picture and what it foretells.
“5. As part of the confusion of the Income Tax Code (Title 26 USC), the question arises on who is “liable” to pay income taxes. Upon a strict interpretation of the Code, the answer seems to be that the average American citizen is NOT “liable” to pay federal income taxes and yet millions of Americans overlook this conflict and pay their taxes in compliance with what appears to be not required under the Code.
Americans have fallen victim to this rogue, inept, out-of-control, bureaucratic agency that is relentless in its pursuit of your tax dollars to the point of abuse, harassment, blackmail, coercion, bungling mismanagement, law-creating, law breaking, corruption and blatant criminality. If you think you are protected from the IRS by the 4th, 5th and 14th Amendments against illegal search and seizures, violations of due process or constitutional rights, or protected against self-incrimination, think again. Every time you sign the “Jurat” statement at the bottom of Form 1040 under penalty of perjury, you have abrogated your 4th and 5th Amendment rights and opened yourself up to being penalized or charged with a crime because the Internal Revenue Code is basically unconstitutional, complex and is rife with errors, omissions and conflicts.
But babies are not responsible for whom or what they become, their parents and their teachers are. That is a huge responsibility that way too many folk take lightly.
“The Oversight Committee conducted dozens of transcribed interviews with Treasury and IRS staff and determined that the former Director of Tax-Exempt Organizations (EO) at the IRS, Lois Lerner, was the at the center of these efforts to target political groups. Lerner asserted her Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination before the Oversight Committee, declining to answer questions while simultaneously asserting her innocence.”
For over eleven years we have been writing a weekly column pointing out the injustices inflicted upon Americans and the American taxpayer by government and special interests. But no injustice is more egregious than allowing foreign nationals to invade our country by the millions where they get to profit from the invasion, rather than being put in jail or deported as they would be in any other country. No other sovereign nation on earth allows illegal immigration to exist on such an enormous scale, as does the United States of America. What is even more unfathomable is why this injustice doesn’t fester in the hearts and minds of the American people to the point where they put an immediate halt to it, or fire those in government who are responsible. What does it take for the American people to rise up against this injustice in full force and fury, as they should?
During the Obama Administration, Republican Senators joined with Democrats to confirm two of the most liberal U. S. Supreme Court justices that Obama could find in Kagan and Sotomayor. Republicans even voted for Bill Clinton’s nomination of Ruth Bader Ginsberg in a 96 to 3 vote. Justice Ginsberg is so liberal she believes that the high court should consider other international law in deciding Supreme Court cases, in addition to the U. S. Constitution. Why didn’t the Republicans filibuster Ginsberg’s nomination?
So if “all legislative powers” reside in the legislature, what “law”, passed by the legislature, gave the federal bureaucracies the power to also pass laws? Is it because they call them “rules” instead of “laws?”
The U. S. Constitution and the Constitution of the several states do not start out with “We the Government“, or “We the Group“, or “We the Collective“, or “We the King.” They all start out with “We The People” and for good reason. The whole concept of “We the People” was and still is based on the fundamental law that each person is endowed with personal sovereignty over their lives and their property. America’s total foundation was built upon sovereignty resting in the people, not the government. Government was limited to seventeen (17) enumerated powers. All other rights were reserved unto the states and the people. Each individual person is equal to all other persons, as joint tenants in a government created by them, with the right to throw off that government or “….. to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
one-world-order that bears no relation to the individual rights under our Constitution? Have we become so naive, ignorant, self-absorbed and apathetic that we would succumb to the propaganda from government, where a handout from them, or a new law, carries with it the handcuffs of slavery?
There appeared to be more clarity seven decades ago than there is now, even with all the magical toys that technology has created since then. Sadly, the new technology has become an obsessive distraction for those under 70, and even more so for those under 50, leading to an “I don’t care” mentality when it comes to their individual freedom.
What is the purpose of the news media? Once again, any reasonable person would say that the news media should report the “news” accurately and with as little bias as possible, except for one little nagging characteristic, humans are, by their very nature, biased. The reporter who reports the news, the journalist who investigates and reports the news, the historian that writes history books about the news and the reader that reads the news and the history books are inherently biased and they are biased because of what is inside their “
Can the news media be bought? To the concerns that the Founding Fathers had about the news media being hijacked by the powerful and the wealthy, Forbes Magazine reported in June of 2016 that 15 billionaires own most of the American news outlets, from the major networks ABC, NBC and CBS, to the cable networks like FOX, MSNBC and CNN. Michael Bloomberg, Rupert Murdock and George Soros are just three of those 15 billionaires. Bloomberg LP has over 2,000 correspondents around the world collecting the “news”. Who controls the final editing of all the news that is being reported by those 2,000 correspondents when Michael Bloomberg has a huge financial interest in the success or failure of the outlets he owns? What is the bias of the correspondents and the editors and how does that bias influence what is being reported? How is the reader supposed to filter out that bias?
A couple of the “crew” were from Canada, but most of the arguments of the dissenters were focused on the idea that Putin had every right to invade and claim Crimea for Russia because George Soros, with American involvement, put $5 Billion into destabilizing Ukraine. And correspondingly, Putin had every right to invade Ukrainian territory because the people in the eastern part of Ukraine were of Russian descent.
