New Years

By Paul Engel

December 31, 2023

  • Whether you make New Years Resolutions or not, the beginning of a new year is a good time to consider the future.
  • What will you do in 2024 to help you better understand the Constitution, your rights, and how to defend them?
  • What will you do to help protect liberty and freedom for all in 2024?

I don’t “do” New Years Resolutions. To me, they’re one step above a campaign promise. (At least you intend to keep your resolutions.) That said, the beginning of a new year is a good time to consider your future. What plans do you have for the new year? So, while I do not make New Years Resolutions, if you do, here are a few ideas I think you should consider.

Read the Constitution

I know, I sound like a broken record, but I believe reading the Constitution is something we should be doing at least once a year. In fact, it you read the Constitution 3, 4, or even 12 times a year, that would not be a bad thing. I agree with our first Chief Justice of the United States, John Jay. If you want to know when your rights are being violated, and be prepared to defend and assert them, then read and study the Constitution of the United States.

If you are feeling really ambitious, how about reading both the Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers while you’re at it? These were the essays, published in New York newspapers, discussing what the Framers expected the Constitution to actually do, and the concerns some of them had about the central government. If you’re really looking to go deep, follow that up with reading the state ratification debates.

Attend a Bootcamp

Even if you are not considering The Patriots Program, I would recommend attending the bootcamp online. It’s free, and you’ll walk away with tools you can use today to defend and assert your rights.

I’m considering doing a few bootcamps online via Zoom. If you are interested, either sign up for one of my mailing lists or watch the website for the announcement. These Zoom Bootcamps will contain the same information as the recorded one currently available, but it will offer you an opportunity to ask questions and get feedback.

Meet your Sheriff

Believe it or not, the most powerful law enforcement officer in your county is not the State Police, the FBI, or any federal agency, but your Sheriff. Shortly after moving to Middle Tennessee, I setup a meeting with the Sheriff in my county. At first, he was confused because I wasn’t there to complain. I wanted to meet him outside of any campaign, just to know a little bit about the man.

During our meeting I told him what I wanted to know was if anyone from my house calls 911, I wanted to be sure the deputy that showed up was trained that their first and primary responsibility was to protect the rights of everyone involved. The good news, at least for me and the others in my county, my Sheriff agreed. I told him that if he protects our rights, then I would have his back. Granted, I have a unique set of skills; I can teach his deputies, or write a position paper based on the Constitution. I told him I would also stand with him at a press conference, or testify to the constitutionality of his actions.

Have you ever talked to your Sheriff? Ever made sure they understood what you expected from them? More important, have you let your Sheriff know you’ve got their back? If you expect your Sheriff to protect your rights, is it too much to ask that you will back them up when they do? OK, so maybe you don’t think you could write a position paper, but you can stand by them during a press conference, offer to speak up at a county meeting, or just help in any way possible. Imagine what it must feel like for a Sheriff, knowing that if they do anything controversial, the media, politicians, and yes, the public, will be after them. How good would it feel to know that if they fulfill their oath to support the constitutions of their state and the United States, at least some of the citizens of their county will back them up.

Attend School Board or Board of Elections’ Meetings

Now, let’s think about the future. Our children will grow up in the world we leave for them. What will your children learn about themselves, our history, and this country? Since about 90% of children attend a government school, don’t we have a responsibility to make sure they are taught properly? Taught the truth about this country, i.e., the good, the bad, and the ugly? Shouldn’t we make sure they are taught what their rights are, and what their civic responsibilities are to keep this nation free? Then, whether you have school aged children or not, being involved in the school board is a great step. If nothing else, you can help make sure the racism and pornography that has been spreading across academia lately stays out of your schools.

If schools aren’t your thing, what about the Board of Elections? If the United States is to remain a republic, then We the People must choose our representatives by election. Recent history has shown that those elections are under attack. What better way to help preserve the republic than to make sure the elections in your county are free, fair, and transparent? Remember, every election starts at the county level. Keeping your Board of Elections on the right side of the Constitution may not seem like much, but as more and more people do so, we can change not just our counties, but our states and our nation, too.

Vote Wisely

So many people focus on whether or not you vote, few consider how you decide who to vote for? Don’t get me wrong, voting is an important civic duty, but how you decide who to vote for is just as important.

Here’s what I do. When anyone asks for my vote, I start by asking them one question. “Show me when you did something to fulfill your oath to support the Constitution when it cost you something?” I’m looking closely not only at what they say, but how they act. Most people are caught off guard, unsure, and reply with some sound bite platform plank that doesn’t mean a thing. Occasionally, someone will tell me that they raised their hand and signed up to defend this nation, but most people are all talk and no action. To me, it’s not what you say, but what you do that really matters. As we look toward the chaos of the 2024 elections, if you make resolutions, please resolve to vote wisely, not just this year, but in all future years.

Conclusion

If you are making New Years resolutions, I hope you’ll consider some of these ideas. If, like me, you don’t make resolutions, I still hope you will consider these things you can do to help restore liberty and justice to all. Remember, as President James Garfield said at this nation’s first centennial:

[N]ow more than ever before, the people are responsible for the character of their Congress. If that body be ignorant, reckless and corrupt, it is because the people tolerate ignorance, recklessness and corruption. If it be intelligent, brave and pure, it is because the people demand these high qualities to represent them in the national legislature … [I]f the next centennial does not find us a great nation…it will be because those who represent the enterprise, the culture, and the morality of the nation do not aid in controlling the political forces.

James A. Garfield, A Century of Congress

In the middle of our third century, just as it was at the end of the first, the character of not only our Congress, but of our state legislature, our governors, and our county office holders, is our responsibility. I hope you will take that responsibility seriously.

Prepared Beforehand

by Rolaant McKenzie

December 31, 2023

The Thirty Years’ War was a series of conflicts between various nations, mainly in Central Europe, involving religious, territorial, dynastic, and commercial rivalries. Taking place from May 23, 1618, to October 24, 1648, it was one of the longest and most destructive wars in European history, costing an estimated 4-8 million lives from battle, famine, and disease. Many areas in present-day Germany were especially hard hit, losing more than half their populations.

Statue and Memorial of Georg Friedrich Handel with “I know that my Redeemer liveth” from Messiah by Louis-François Roubiliac (1702-1762) at Westminster Abbey, London, England

Valentin Handel was a coppersmith and respected member of the Halle city council in Saxony (a state in present-day eastern Germany). Georg Handel (September 24, 1622 – February 11, 1697) was born to him and his wife Anna, but the war came to their city and brought great devastation. While Georg and his mother survived, Valentin died of the plague when Georg was 14.

In 1683, a year after the death of his wife Anna, Georg married Dorothea Taust, the daughter of a Lutheran pastor. Three years later, Georg Friedrich Handel (February 23, 1685 – April 14, 1759) was born. According to John Mainwaring’s Memoirs of the Life of the Late George Frederic Handel (1760), the junior Handel had a strong inclination toward music, but his father urged him to pursue a career in civil law and discouraged him from playing any musical instruments. But he managed to secretly acquire a small clavichord and become proficient at playing it at night while his family slept.

Somewhere between when he was seven and nine years old, Handel and his father went on a trip to Weissenfels in central Germany to visit a male relative who was serving as a valet to Duke Johann Adolf I (November 2, 1649 – May 24, 1697). It is said that the young Handel found his way to the court organ in the palace’s Chapel of the Holy Trinity and amazed everyone with his musical skill. He attracted the attention of the Duke, who recommended this musical prodigy be permitted to take lessons in musical composition and keyboard technique from eminent organist Friedrich Wilhelm Zachow.

Over the next decade, Handel enjoyed increasing success in his musical career. In 1712, he moved to England to settle permanently and became a naturalized citizen. There he composed numerous operas, oratorios, and other works that brought him great renown.

Disaster struck when Handel suffered a stroke in the spring of 1737 that caused temporary paralysis in his right hand and arm. A subsequent stroke after a brief recovery caused some deterioration in his mental capacities. Following the advice of his doctor, Handel reluctantly took a break from his work and took advantage of the medical spa therapy available at Royal Tunbridge Wells. By the end of the year, all the symptoms of his stroke had disappeared.

During this time, Handel became friends with Charles Jennens (1700 – November 20, 1773), a devout Christian, wealthy English landowner, and patron of the arts. Jennens authored a number of libretti, texts intended to be used for lengthy musical works such as operas or oratorios. In a desire to counter the growing influence of Deism (a belief in a God who does not intervene in the affairs of men) and proclaim the gospel to people who did not usually attend church, Jennens wrote the libretto Messiah, created entirely of biblical passages documenting prophecies about Jesus’ birth, death on the cross, and resurrection, which he gave to Handel to compose an oratorio.

The music for Messiah was completed on September 14, 1741, just 24 days after Handel began working on it. It is said that he never left his house during this time. According to early-music scholar Richard Luckett’s Handel’s Messiah: A Celebration (1992), the number of errors in the original 259-page score was incredibly low for a composition of this length. After Handel wrote the “Hallelujah” chorus, he exclaimed to a visiting friend with great emotion, “I did think I did see all Heaven before me, and the great God Himself!” Not wanting praise for himself for this work, at the end of the score manuscript he wrote the letters SDG for Soli Deo Gloria, meaning “Glory to God alone.”

Contrary to the Deists, Handel believed, as did Jennens, in God, who not only created the heavens and the earth but did not abandon the creation to run itself. He could see the intervention of God in his own life. The devastation of a long war in his homeland could have ended his father’s life through violence or disease, as it did his grandfather, and the junior Handel would not have been born. His father could have succeeded in causing him to abandon his calling to music and embrace a civil law career. Handel may not have emigrated to England and befriended Jennens or miraculously recovered from a stroke that could have ended his musical career. He realized that God placed him where he was with the talents he had to glorify Him and be an instrument of His blessing to those around him and beyond.

Messiah was first performed on April 13, 1742, at the Great Music Hall in Dublin, Ireland, to great acclaim. It went on to be performed in theaters, concert halls, and churches in London and elsewhere. For more than 280 years, this masterpiece of music accompanying the words of Holy Scripture has moved audiences around the world, delivering the message of the greatest intervention of God in the world: demonstrating His love by sending His Son Jesus to reconcile lost humanity to Himself through His living the perfect life we could not live, dying on the cross the death for sin that we deserved, and rising again from the dead to guarantee eternal life to all who trust in Him.

While many of us have not had the same kind of life as Handel, we can look back on our lives and recognize God’s involvement in maintaining us and, at times, arranging our steps. God created and sustains all things, and He “made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation” (Acts 17:26). We are in this place and time in history because we are supposed to be.

Discover the gifts that God has given you and the talents that you have. He will guide you if you ask Him in faith (James 1:5-8).

“For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.” (Ephesians 2:8-10)

Fulfill the role God has for you in the world. The good that you do in Jesus Christ can, like Handel’s music, be like a stone thrown into a pond, the ripple effect expanding outward and benefiting others even long after your time on earth has ended, and leading to eternal reward (1 Corinthians 3:5-15). Then, with the angels and all creation, we will give praise to God as in the final chorus of Messiah, based on Revelation 5:11-14:

Worthy is the lamb that was slain,
And hath redeemed us to God by His blood,
To receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength,
And honor, and glory, and blessing.

Blessing and honor, glory and power, be unto Him
That sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb,
Forever and ever, forever and ever.

Amen.

The Pope is Not Catholic

By Cliff Kincaid

December 30, 2023

Just in time for Christmas, Pope Francis tried to water down the church’s teaching on homosexuality, to accommodate those who practice and film anal sex in the Senate chambers. No wonder various Roman Catholic dioceses are going bankrupt because of child sex abuse scandals.

Still, outlets like Fox News featured Christmas interviews with such characters as “His Eminence” Timothy Cardinal Dolan, without raising the issue of what exactly is happening with the moral teachings of the church he represents. “God is with us,” he said. But apparently the Pope is not.

We can expect either more bankruptcies under this latest proclamation from the Roman Catholic Pope or more of an exodus of conservative Catholics, who will justifiably refuse to contribute one red cent to this morally bankrupt institution.

The release of a Vatican document that permits the blessing of same-sex unions runs directly contrary to a March, 2021, document from the Vatican’s doctrinal office. It said “the Church does not have, and cannot have, the power to bless unions of persons of the same sex…” Suddenly, this has all changed.

Even before this flip-flop, anti-communist Professor Renato Cristin had commented that Pope Francis had emerged as the leader of the global left. The only question is whether Francis is a Marxist masquerading as a Catholic, or whether he has somehow in his own mind synthesized Christianity and Communism into a bizarre philosophy of “Christian communism.”

It appears that Francis is auditioning for the role of what many religions (other than Christianity) believe is a “World Teacher” who is to come, also known as the “Coming One.” Groups like Lucis Trust say he is known under such names as the Lord Maitreya, the Imam Mahdi, the Kalki avatar, and so forth.

Lucis Trust is an occult Theosophist group in charge of the United Nations’ Meditation Room which sponsors the group known as World Goodwill.

Theosophy teaches that man can become God through mystical experiences, and can even perform miracles. Its original publishing house was named Lucifer Publishing and was changed in 1924 to “Lucis Publishing.”

I once visited the New York City headquarters of World Goodwill, noting books on the shelves that included several by Russian mystic Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831–1891), Mikhail Gorbachev, and the influential The Coming of the Cosmic Christ by Matthew Fox. A United Nations flag greeted visitors.

Whatever the case, as I noted in a previous column, Francis has become a significant impediment to the restoration of the fundamental values of Judeo-Christian civilization.

The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith taught in 2003, with the authority of Saint John Paul II, that “Catholics are obliged to oppose the legal recognition of homosexual unions” and that “Catholic politicians are obliged to do so in a particular way, in keeping with their responsibility as politicians.”

If church leaders have lost their way morally, it is no surprise that politicians are morally confused as well.

Consider the outrage on the right that has greeted the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to throw Trump off the presidential ballot when he questioned the 2020 election results and urged people to protest peacefully and patriotically.

It is certainly true that Trump was never convicted of insurrection and not even charged with such an offense.

By the same token, the Supreme Court once legalized gay marriage for no rhyme or reason, and very few “conservatives” put up a stink.

In our report, “The Deep State Wears Black Robes,” we examine the non-existent grounds for the Supreme Court’s gay marriage decision. It was Justice Anthony Kennedy who gave us gay marriage, writing, “At the heart of liberty is the right to define one’s own concept of existence, of meaning, of the universe, and of the mystery of human life.”

This New Age gobbledygook lies at the heart of the pope’s recent declaration.

Kennedy will go down in history as “the first gay justice” for his bizarre rulings in favor of homosexual rights. Perhaps Francis will go down as the first pope to turn the Vatican over to the Lucis Trust and the United Nations.

A writer for the leftist Center for American Progress acknowledged that Anthony Kennedy “wrote an opinion that was constructed largely from discarded Age of Aquarius lyrics…” and he added “that will make it much easier for the Court’s new majority to blow this right away.”

We are still waiting.

There is no right to gay marriage in the Constitution, just as there was never a right to abortion in that document. Kennedy had also upheld Roe v. Wade, leading to more than 60 million abortions.

So let us protest the Colorado Supreme Court while demanding that the so-called “conservative” Supreme Court discard Kennedy’s gay marriage decision.

But can the Court be counted on to rule the right way?

Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, a law clerk for Justice Anthony Kennedy, relaced Kennedy. There were rumors that Kennedy decided to retire only if one of his law clerks, such as Kavanaugh, were picked to replace him.

So Kavanaugh, nominated by Trump, is an unsteady conservative, at best.

The Supreme Court is a political institution, just like the Roman Catholic Church of Pope Francis. It cannot be counted on to do the right thing. It cannot be counted on to obey the Constitution.

Franklin Graham says that “none of us, including the Pope, has the right to ‘bless’ what God calls sin.” He is right.

To think that homosexual couples, like the kind performing in the Senate chambers on film, are entitled to official church blessings is abominable and sick.

Still, the Pope’s decision, as one homosexual journalist wrote, is the equivalent of an atom bomb. He notes that the Vatican, which functions as a government internationally, “has global influence, at the United Nations and with heads of state who mean regularly with the pope.”

For traditional Catholics, this means more than just that the church has lost its way. It means the Vatican has entered into an alliance with the “Powers of Darkness,” a growing group of people in America and around the world who have broken with the Judeo-Christian tradition to instead endorse the notion of God as a mystical force inhabiting humans, the earth, or spiritual “masters.”

As we have seen with the Pope or Anthony Kennedy, one of 15 Roman Catholics to have served on the Supreme Court, being “Catholic” doesn’t mean obedience to moral teachings of the Christ and the Bible.

Foundations of Truth are Prerequisite to Understanding the Times and Seasons

By Ms. Smallback

December 30, 2023

Some years ago I was asked to teach a high school Sunday School class.  I had just recently started attending that church and knew very few people.  I had recently done my own study of John the Baptist and found it fascinating.  As I was talking with God about what to teach, I said to Him, “I’ll teach them about what I’ve learned about John the Baptist!”  I immediately saw (in my mind’s eye) a large structure like a pavilion with a large load of snow on top and I heard the Lord say, “No.  The weight of that teaching is too heavy.  It will collapse.”  Then I saw the pavilion collapse.

I didn’t really understand why He was telling me that so I argued with Him about how great a teaching I thought that would be because they’re the future generation, and there are so many parallels to John the Baptist and those awaiting Christ’s return in present generations.  He told me again the weight of that teaching would collapse the structure, and that I must first lay a foundation.  He said the kids didn’t have a foundation under them to carry such a weight.  I argued again (sigh), and He said, “Okay, ask them.”

So that Sunday I asked the high school aged kids who built the ark, who was considered the patriarch of the faith, who was sold by his brothers into slavery, who was Nicodemus, and a number of other basic tenets of Christianity including who was John the Baptist.  To my great shock and surprise, they maybe answered ten percent of those questions correctly.  I was truly surprised.  Most of those kids had been raised in Christian homes and spent considerable time in the church.

I then backed out.  I got a piece of butcher block paper and hung it on the wall, and we started from the beginning.  We started in the Garden and moved through the chronological history of the basics of the faith.  It took us months to get to the birth of Christ.

What an apt description of America today.  We have a majority of the population with no solid foundation of anything of real importance really.  They don’t understand the premise of the Revolutionary War, the function of government, the threat of tyranny, or any other number of things that establish a plumb line for truth.  They think freedom and hedonism are synonymous, and they disregard the personal responsibility of human conduct.

They are slaves of emotions and the whim of popular opinion.  They lack conviction connected to truth and righteousness, and instead rage against standards of righteousness and truth with no understanding of WHY such standards have existed for millennia.  They are easily deceived, easily ensnared in folly, and pawns of a regime and system intent on using and discarding them for the sake of the system being set up.

The intricacies of the current system we’re entrenched in are nearly impossible to teach on or elaborate upon with the lack of foundation under the status quo.  How do you expound upon the perils of trans-humanism to a generation raised by video games and virtual reality?  They think it’s just another step to an exciting superhero mentality.  They have no foundation under them for understanding the profound greatness of our humanity in its creation.  They’ve been programmed to despise the frailties of humanity and the design of its Creator.

I haven’t decided if we’re in the era of 1984, Brave New World, or Atlas Shrugged.  But it feels to me like a combination of all of them.  Do you remember George Orwell’s last recorded interview?  He described the future as a “boot stamping on a human face forever”.  When asked what he would advise future generations, he simply said, “Don’t let it happen.”

And yet here we are.

At the same time as I lament the lack of foundation of truth and understanding of the status quo, I remember that scene in The Princess Bride where Wesley has been mostly dead (from the torture machine), and was brought out of it and they needed to rescue the Princess.  When he wanted to be brought up to speed on the current setting, he was told, “Let me explain.  No, there is too much; let me sum up.”  I feel as though we are perpetually under time restraints, where we must sum up because explanations are too long.  Presently the need for action is imminent but there is not enough time to bring people to a fuller understanding.

Regardless, we must try.

When I first fell in love with God, felt the enormity of His goodness, His love, His salvation, I wanted to know Him but didn’t know where to start.  A wise woman bought me a yearly Bible (a Bible divided into 365 readings to read it through in a year).  She told me to just read it.  Just read it.  So I did.

I didn’t realize in that year what I was reading.  Much of it I had no context for, no real understanding.  But it was a starting point.  It laid a foundation of sorts that could be built upon.  I would go on to read the Bible completely through several more times.  Each time there was more I understood.  If I read it through again in 2024, I will learn even more.  There is no end to the knowledge contained in its pages.

Recently a dear friend reminded me of this passage in Daniel 2….

“He gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those who have understanding….”

And it reminds me of when Christ gave the parable of the talents and he says, “For to everyone who has, more shall be given and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does not have shall be taken away.”

So I guess the point I’m trying to make is we must make effort to understand the foundations, to build upon the solid foundations.  There are things in our world that don’t make sense without a foundation of knowledge, understanding, wisdom.  I don’t think it’s too late (though I do think time is running out) to learn the ancient paths, to seek knowledge and wisdom, to put beneath us foundations we can build upon, and foundations that enable us to discern fallacies and deceptions.

You don’t understand calculus without learning basic arithmetic.  You can’t comprehend literary classics without grasping language concepts.  You can’t foresee economical crisis without understanding basic economic concepts.  You can’t discern propaganda without knowledge of political agendas.  The list goes on and on.  The sleeping world would not have been bamboozled into poisonous medical injections had they understood basic (real) science and biology, and they would have rejected the propaganda had they learned of the pharmaceutical mafia and its agenda.  Imagine how many other dangers and ills that could be thwarted if we would just seek foundational knowledge and truths.

I didn’t understand “covid-19” when it first came out, but my discernment indicated it was not as it appeared.  I spent untold of hours trying to bring myself up to speed on all sorts of things like viruses, contagions (and what that even means), past historical examples, etc.  I didn’t have a foundation yet to make a decision on whether to comply with the public narrative, so I suspended judgment and action until I had time to gain a foundation of truth.  There were others who already had such a foundation which enabled them to make quick decisions.

I had to find sources of truth that were foundational and not sensational.  I had to pray a lot that God lead me to truth, and I had to silence the loud voices of fear and manipulation.  There’s a process to laying a foundation.  There’s a slow, steady process of laying layer upon layer, line upon line, precept upon precept.  Then there’s the quik-crete process of crash studying, little sleep, disallowing distractions, focused and intent learning in a short span of time, etc.  Covid-19 was a crash course for me.  Other things I don’t have to “study” for because I already have a foundation for that has been laid over longer periods of time and testing.

The point is to lay solid foundations, whether through a time enhanced process, or a quicker crash course.  Reject the spoon-fed answers and seek the paths of truth that lead to understanding and ultimately, wisdom.  We cannot possibly learn all we need to know in the limited time and resources we have on earth, but we can still be set on the right paths.

A new year is upon us.  Maybe it’s a good time to lay down the superfluous activities of the current systems that are trying to create dystopic futures, and instead use the talents given us to invest in lasting investments of knowledge that lead to understanding, which ultimately leads to wisdom.  There’s a very exciting future in front of us where indeed the purposes of God are made manifest in the face of the deceptive darkness trying to project its agendum.

I’m going to write about some things in the coming days that are easier to understand with some foundational truths.  I pray they will be laid upon foundations of truth that can bear the weight.  This is not to imply I have some superior knowledge; it’s just to elucidate wisdom and understanding are usually found within the foundations laid by truth.   In the meantime, may you seek the Living God and His truth before all else.  In many ways, it is the most exciting time to be alive on earth.

Suzanne Harp and the Cultural War for America’s Future

By: Amil Imani

December 29, 2023

Suzanne Harp, an America First candidate in Texas’ Third Congressional District, is one voice that emerges as a beacon of traditional values and unwavering patriotism – a voice urging self-education, vigilance, and a return to the foundational values that define America.

In a recent interview, Harp passionately outlined her vision for America, addressing pressing issues such as the cultural war, the role of faith, accountability in politics, and the potential challenges in the 2024 election. Harp is not just a politician; she represents the enduring spirit of American exceptionalism.

At the heart of Suzanne’s message is a call for citizens to go “beyond party affiliations” and actively engage in the political process.

According to her, the real test lies not in political clubs or online discussions but in physically testifying in front of hearings in Austin, Texas. She believes this is where the rubber meets the road, where citizens can make a tangible impact on decision-making.

The conversation unfolds into a broader discussion about generational education and its pivotal role in winning the cultural war. Harp emphasizes the need to educate the next generation about how the political system works and how to use their voices effectively. To her, this education is not just about civic studies; it’s about empowering the youth to “be active participants” in shaping the nation’s future.

Accountability in politics becomes a focal point as Suzanne urges citizens to stay in communication with their elected representatives. According to Harp, knowing your congressperson intimately and holding them accountable for their decisions is an essential aspect of ensuring responsible governance. This approach aligns with her belief that citizens should have direct access to their representatives, knowing them personally.

A notable aspect of Harp’s vision is the advocacy for “hiring patriots” over politicians. Drawing attention to the effectiveness of business-minded individuals, she cites the impact of Donald Trump, asserting that hiring patriots can lead to more efficient problem-solving. The idea is to shift from the conventional approach of electing career politicians to embracing individuals deeply committed to the nation’s well-being.

The interview takes a deeper dive into the ongoing cultural war, positioning it as a battle between a constitutional republic and the potential threat of a socialist, Marxist dictatorship. Suzanne echoes the sentiments of the Founding Fathers, emphasizing the importance of faith, family, and freedom. In her view, these foundational values are under threat, and citizens must actively engage in preserving them.

Foreign policy, particularly the involvement in the Ukraine conflict, becomes a point of scrutiny for Harp. She questions the alignment with leaders like Zelensky and raises concerns about the motives behind such decisions. Harp advocates for a careful and prudent approach to international relations, stressing that decisions should be aligned with the nation’s best interests.

As the conversation shifts towards potential challenges in the 2024 election, Suzanne emphasizes the need for citizens to equip themselves with the right information. This includes understanding global challenges and ensuring fair and transparent elections. The call is for an informed electorate that can counteract any attempts to undermine the democratic process.

One of the recurring themes in Suzanne’s vision is the “crucial role of faith and morality” in political leadership. She cautions against supporting candidates who shy away from discussing their faith, asserting that a moral compass is essential for effective governance. This aligns with the historical notion that a constitutional republic is only sustainable with a moral and religious citizenry.

Suzanne Harp also addresses America’s global challenges, emphasizing the need for citizens to understand the enemy. She calls for a united effort to win in such great numbers that the groundswell is undeniable in any state. This strategic approach involves educating oneself about the global cabal challenging American values.

While expressing frustration and anger among Americans, Suzanne urges caution against rushing into civil unrest. She acknowledges the challenges but emphasizes a careful and informed approach, including holding those involved in treasonous acts accountable. Her message resonates with a call for responsible action rather than impulsive reactions.

The conversation concludes with Suzanne drawing inspiration from historical figures like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, highlighting the importance of speaking out against evil. She commends the courage of mothers who speak out against issues in classrooms and boardrooms, emphasizing the need for collective action in safeguarding the nation’s values.

In essence, Suzanne Harp’s vision revolves around active citizenship, informed engagement, and a strategic shift in leadership.

Should We Allow Islam to Destroy Civilization?

by Peter Falkenberg Brown

December 29, 2023

Synopsis:

  • There are millions of moderate, good-hearted, freedom-loving Muslims around the globe who do not want to destroy civilization. But their forces are not dominant.
  • Orthodox Islam teaches hostility toward unbelievers and commands its followers to conquer all non-Islamic countries and create a global caliphate. Nations such as Iran and Saudi Arabia are actively promoting and funding violent jihad.
  • The West has been lulled asleep about the dangers of Orthodox Islam and has fallen prey to the stultifying canard of “Islamophobia” that prevents rational critiques of Islam.
  • The West (and the rest of the world) is in danger of losing its freedoms to Orthodox Islam. Will it wake up in time?

===============================

Four Intro Quotes:

Islamic Terrorists have carried out more than 44,459 deadly terror attacks since 9/11.

[https://thereligionofpeace.com/ as of 12/25/23]

=======

Fight those who do not believe in Allah and the Last Day, nor comply with what Allah and His Messenger have forbidden, nor embrace the religion of truth from among those who were given the Scripture, until they pay the tax, willingly submitting, fully humbled.

[Qur’an 9:29 (The Clear Quran, Dr. Mustafa Khattab)]

=======

It has been narrated on the authority of Abdullah b. ’Umar that the Messenger of Allah said: I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, and they establish prayer, and pay Zakat and if they do it, their blood and property are guaranteed protection on my behalf except when justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah.

(Sahih Muslim, Book 1, Number 33)

=======

They wish you would disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so you may all be alike. So do not take them as allies unless they emigrate in the cause of Allah. But if they turn away, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and do not take any of them as allies or helpers.

[Qur’an 4:89 (The Clear Quran, Dr. Mustafa Khattab)]

=======

Let’s establish the fact that we must protect freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Of course! This article doesn’t dispute that. Instead, it focuses on the issue of “incitement to violence” which is intertwined within Orthodox Islamic teachings. Incitement to violence is not protected speech. (See legal analysis below.)

The title of this essay may seem outrageous to some, but I contend that thoughtful, freedom-loving individuals must consider this topic carefully, or indeed, a world of peace and freedom will not grow or be maintained. I’ve written this article for those who know very little about Islam and may not have given this topic any thought until now. For others, bear with me as I attempt to follow a logical path to what I believe is an inevitable conclusion.

Again, I’m not talking about banning Islam as a religion. I am speaking of its political doctrines that affect both Muslims and non-Muslims. Islam is a totalitarian political system animated by the fervor of religious belief. If Islam had no negative impact on the peace of the world, there would be no need to discuss it at all.

Beliefs Have Consequences

To discuss the issue, we must agree on certain definitions, principles, and ideals. Why? Because beliefs have consequences and affect human behaviors. Beliefs can create peace or tragic hostility and war.

The very first and most vital point of all is that every human being is a sacred creation of God with inalienable rights—even those who have different beliefs.

Individuals are not atheistic bags of meat with legs; organic machines that have no eternal value. Humans have intrinsic deep value no matter what they believe because their souls spring from a sacred source. We all think and feel and hope and dream. We’re all capable of receiving and expressing transcendent, unselfish love. We’re all capable of growth and change.

If you’re an atheist or Orthodox Muslim, you may disagree with this definition of humans. Yet is it not true that you want to live a free and fulfilling life? Or do you think that you are just organic material with no transcendent purpose? Are you just a bag of meat with legs? Shudder the thought… Our souls shout, “No!”

Do you only have value if you follow a strict set of totalitarian, religious laws? Or does your soul yearn for a direct, personal relationship with the source of love and freedom? Millions of Muslims are converting to Christianity at great personal risk.[1] I believe it’s because the root of Christianity is based on sacred love and freedom.

On a practical level, we must remember that the atheistic definition of humans as “material without spirit” allowed the Marxist slaughter of over one hundred million people in the twentieth century.[2]

In a similar manner, the Islamic definition of humans allowed and encouraged Orthodox Muslim jihadis to slaughter non-Muslims (“kafirs” or “infidels”) at will, because Allah stated that those who reject Islam are “the worst of creatures.” [Qur’an 98.6 (Safi Kaskas)]

Beliefs have consequences.

The Divine Rights of All Individuals

Many non-religious people might say, “What’s all the fuss about ‘sacred inalienable rights’? Just be nice and treat everybody well. We don’t need to be connected to God to be good.”

“And besides, Muslims believe in God, so what are you talking about?”

Thus we arrive at one of the central requirements for true peace and freedom in the world. It must include all people equally. Beyond race, religion, and nationality: peace and freedom are meant for all. This requires that every person is treated equally, with rights that stem from a higher source. Call that source what you will, but the key component is that rights and freedoms ultimately derive from the transcendent ethics of kindness, compassion, and love—virtues that are birthed and animated by a non-material origin.

I suggest that it’s essential and logical to state that unselfish love is generated by the infinite source of all life. I call that Source God, but the name doesn’t really matter. Many might disagree, but how do they answer this question?

“Can love and kindness develop from an unfeeling void, or does it need a transcendent Source?”

There is no logical sequence of events that allows love and kindness to spring from a black void of “nothing.”

What happens when human societies ignore or abandon the divine rights of the individual? Just turn to any non-biased history book: virtually every page is awash with the blood of conquered victims. The largest numbers of victims have been generated by totalitarian ideologies. Those thought systems defined humans in a way that allowed millions of people to be slaughtered: men, women, and children.

They were slaughtered by people who sincerely believed that their victims had no value at all.

Beliefs have consequences.

Hitler’s ideology of Nazism killed around eleven million people, including six million Jews.[3] It is less well-known by today’s young people that Marxism killed between one-hundred and one-hundred-fifty million people between 1914 and the year 1991 when the Soviet Union was disbanded.[4] Even though it’s popular to believe that “the threat of Communism is no more,” its murders continue, most recently highlighted by the plight of the Muslim Uyghurs in China, who are killed while their organs are being harvested.[5]

Orwellian Propaganda

And now we arrive at a crossroad of the cleverness of evil. George Orwell’s novel 1984 described it with his example of the “Ministry of Truth,” the department where truth was changed and repackaged. Lies became the new truth.

In 2023, the world is drowning under an onslaught of Orwellian propaganda and indoctrination. Mass media and educational systems have miseducated our youth for decades, in a campaign that the Italian communist Antonio Gramsci called “the long march through the institutions.”[6] It’s one thing to not know who Sherlock Holmes is (yes, I met a literate, thirty-something person who looked at me blankly when I mentioned that name), but it’s an entirely more tragic outcome to believe that Good is Evil and Evil is Good.

We see that sad phenomenon with the destruction or removal of statues and monuments that in many cases celebrated men and women who risked everything to bring goodness to the world, such as the statue of Abraham Lincoln in Boston that was taken down.[7] He was a prime mover in the emancipation of American slaves during the Civil War. His statue’s removal succinctly illustrates that the real target of the rampaging mob is Western civilization, not just individuals.

The responsibility for that miseducation rests on all who participate in it, but it’s important to acknowledge the temporal source: the long arm of Marxism which has invaded Western society since the time of Marx and Lenin. Their source materials and heinous plans are available for all to see, proudly displayed on communist websites and at their bookstores.[8] Unfortunately, their source materials and stated goals are ignored by the vast majority of citizens.

You might wonder why I mention Marxism in an article about Islam. I do so because Marxism is at least temporarily allied with the forces of orthodox, totalitarian Islam—what many are calling the “red-green alliance.”[9] They are “strange bedfellows” because of their mutual hatred of the Judeo-Christian West. If they ever conquer the West, they will turn on each other viciously. Which side would win is an open question.

Orwellian propaganda is also produced by the followers of Orthodox Islam. One of their recent victories is the propagation of the canard of “Islamophobia,” vigorously promoted and monitored worldwide by the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation.[10]

Their campaign to combat Islamophobia (a so-called “irrational” fear of Islam) has been so successful that a large majority of Westerners sincerely believe that “Islam is a religion of peace,” and that “any criticism of Islam or Mohammed is Islamophobic, and is thus unacceptable.”

Islam Is a Religion of Violent Conquest

However, the falseness of the claim that Islam is a religion of peace is simple to prove. Go into any Muslim neighborhood in any country of the world and say critical and insulting things about Mohammed and Islam and watch what happens. You’ll be physically attacked and possibly killed, in short order.

Go into a Christian neighborhood and say critical and insulting things about Jesus or Christianity. If there’s any response at all it will most likely be, “I’ll pray for you.”

Compare the reaction of the Islamic mobs rioting and burning around the world because of cartoons of Mohammed published in a Danish newspaper[11] to the minimal response from Christians regarding the profoundly insulting photo exhibit called “Piss Christ” of a crucifix with Jesus in a jar of urine, displayed in a museum in New York in 2012.[12] Can you imagine how Muslims would have rioted if that same museum had a jar of urine with a drawing of Mohammed in it?

The evidence is unmistakable and can be proven at any time, anywhere: Islam is not a religion of peace. Blasphemy and apostasy are both severely punished, often with the death of the perpetrator. The website thereligionofpeace.com records acts of jihadist violence by Muslims on a daily basis. The mainstream media ignores almost all of the incidents. Yet if they had been committed by Jews or Christians, the global uproar would be deafening and continuous.

The media’s double standard about reporting Islamic violence was birthed in fear and an adherence to the red-green alliance. But that’s another story…

Consider what all this means as it relates to living in a world of peace and freedom. If you criticize Islam (whether you’re a Muslim or not) or leave Islam (if you’re a Muslim) then you can be put to death. They don’t have a goodbye party for apostates and give them a gold watch and thank them for their service. They don’t wish them well. They do their best to kill them.

Why? Because that’s what Mohammed did and that’s what Mohammed taught. The doctrines and historical records are clearly stated in the Qur’an, the “Hadiths” (the record of Mohammed’s words and actions), and the “Sira” (the biography of Mohammed). Most Westerners have never read any of these sources and thus accept at face value the propaganda of Orthodox Muslims who state that “Islam is a religion of peace.”

But the words of Mohammed are clear:

[In the words of] Allah’s Apostle, ‘Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.’ (Sahih Bukhari 9:84:57)

After Mohammed’s death, large numbers of Muslims tried to leave Islam and were attacked and killed in the Apostasy wars. Muslim leaders realized early on that a majority of people did not want to be Muslims. The only way to grow the “religion,” which should be more honestly labeled as a “totalitarian religion of political control,” was to threaten members of the religion with death if they left or criticized Islam.

Today, if Islam’s blasphemy and apostasy laws were revoked or ignored, criticism of Islam would destroy its credibility in very short order, and millions upon millions of Muslims would leave Islam. I believe that if Muslims felt truly safe to leave Islam, the number of Muslims in the world would drop from almost two billion followers to a few million, at least over a period of a few decades.

In fact, the late Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, an Egyptian, orthodox, Muslim cleric who was an influential spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, inadvertently provided the best and primary indictment of Islam when he stated, on video:

If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn’t exist today.

Islam would have ended since the death of the Prophet, peace be upon him. So, opposing apostasy is what kept Islam to this day. Surah Al-Ma’idah (5:33) says: “The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle is that they should be murdered or crucified.” According to Ali Kulaba’s narration this verse means the apostates.[13]

The punishment of death for blasphemy and apostasy is entirely medieval, horrific, and, most importantly for this discussion—incitements to violence and murder by Islam and its proponents. This is how Islam treats its members and its critics.

Let us now turn our attention to jihad, defined as “A war by Muslims against unbelievers or enemies of Islam, carried out as a religious duty.”[14]

Faithful Muslims have the right to believe in Mohammed and everything else that goes with that belief. But they do not have the right to force their beliefs on anyone else, even though they believe that “Mohammed said so.” And that is the crux of the entire issue of “Islamic incitements to violence” and why the canard of “Islamophobia” is totalitarian nonsense.

Just because one person believes that “Allah” made Mohammed the only authority for all of humankind doesn’t mean that any other person is obligated to agree. In fact, Mohammed’s descent into the use of violent jihad, murder, and conquest as his primary methods to get people to agree with him reveals how disagreeable Islam was to the citizens of Mecca, Medina, and the rest of Arabia. Very few Arabs agreed with Mohammed until he killed so many of them that disagreement was no longer a healthy option.

Mohammed preached in Mecca for thirteen years and gained around 150 followers. He then moved to Medina, and, perhaps because of severe and resentful frustration with his lack of result in membership recruitment, changed his method of outreach from simple preaching to conversion by the sword. By his death, he had forcibly converted approximately 100,000 individuals.[15]

In spite of the threat of Islamic violence over the next fourteen hundred years of Islamic jihad, millions of infidels who disagreed with Islam chose death instead of conversion.[16] That says a lot about the integrity of those murdered victims, but it says even more about the inherent ugliness and totalitarian doctrines of Islam. “Infidels” had a very strong reason to reject Islam, even though death awaited them. Islam’s historical and current death toll is massive, especially when the count includes all of its victims, whether in war, martyrdom or during slavery operations.

Dr. Bill Warner’s article “Tears of Jihad” documents that approximately 270 million infidels have perished under the sword of Islam, including 120 million Africans who died during the African slave trade. As Warner states: “Islam ran the wholesale slave trade in Africa.”[17]

These facts are not well known in the West, undoubtedly due to the distortion of history that has taken place for many decades. The reality that Mohammed and Islam were and are committed to violent jihad, global conquest, and slavery has been buried under ignorance and propaganda, both essential ingredients that fuel the accusation of Islamophobia.

It’s Time to Ban Islam’s Incitements to Violence

This article takes the position that it’s time to ban Islam’s medieval incitements to jihad, conquest, and slavery. The rationale for that position is based on two things: a) the actual history of Islamic jihad and conquest and b) the current goals of Islam as it relates to the world today.

As documented by many sources, including Robert Spencer’s superb treatise The History of Jihad: From Muhammad to ISIS [18], Islam roared out of Arabia in the seventh century and within around a hundred years conquered and enslaved vast areas of formerly Christian lands. Islam occupied North Africa, including Egypt, and dominated the Mediterranean. It conquered Jerusalem and Spain (temporarily) and effectively shut down European trade across the sea. Dr. Bill Warner states that Islam was a direct cause of the so-called Dark Ages because of its impact on free trade.[19]

Charles Martel turned Islam back in 732 at the Battle of Tours; if he had not it’s highly likely that Europe and England would have become Islamic, which means that all the art and music of the Rennaissance would not have been created.[20] America would have been founded as a totalitarian Islamic country. The Western religious, literary, cultural, economic, scientific, and political advances that created “Western Civilization” would not have happened. The entire world would be as backward—and unfree—as Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Afghanistan. In fact, considering the lack of original scientific advancement coming out of Islamic countries, it’s a safe bet to consider that an Islamic world in 2023 would be a pre-industrial world of poverty and want.[21]

Although Britain, Europe, and America avoided Islamic conquest, the Christian Byzantine Empire fell in the fifteenth century, with the streets of Constantinople running with the blood of slaughtered Christians. Now, Turkey, once entirely Christian, is run by Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, an Islamic fundamentalist and totalitarian.

All of this conquest stemmed directly and irrefutably from the words and actions of Mohammed and the teachings of the Qur’an and its associated texts. These words and actions were and continue to be direct incitements to wage jihad against unbelievers until the entire world is Islamic. They are direct incitements to violence and murder and are believed and acted upon by millions of Orthodox Muslims, as was just demonstrated by the massacre of over 1,400 civilians in Israel on October 7, 2023, by Hamas. Here’s a sample of some of those “words of incitement to violence and murder.”

Your Lord revealed to the angels, “I am with you. Make the Believers stand firm; I will put terror into the hearts of the unbelievers. So strike above their necks and cut off their fingers.” [Qur’an 8:12 (Safi Kaskas)]

Allah’s Apostle said, “The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. ‘O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him.’ ” (Sahih Bukhari 52:177)

Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and spread mischief in the land is death, crucifixion, cutting off their hands and feet on opposite sides, or exile from the land. This ‘penalty’ is a disgrace for them in this world, and they will suffer a tremendous punishment in the Hereafter. [Qur’an 5:33 (The Clear Quran, Dr. Mustafa Khattab)]

The militaristic and supremacist doctrines of Orthodox Islam are the direct cause of Muslim terrorism and jihadi violence. In a 2017 interview reprinted in Time Magazine, Yahya Cholil Staquf, the general secretary of Indonesia’s fifty-million-member Muslim organization Nahdlatul Ulama, stated:

Western politicians should stop pretending that extremism and terrorism have nothing to do with Islam. There is a clear relationship between fundamentalism, terrorism, and the basic assumptions of Islamic orthodoxy. So long as we lack consensus regarding this matter, we cannot gain victory over fundamentalist violence within Islam.[22]

Yahya added:

Within the classical tradition, the relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims is assumed to be one of segregation and enmity.

Perhaps there were reasons for this during the Middle Ages, when the tenets of Islamic orthodoxy were established, but in today’s world such a doctrine is unreasonable. To the extent that Muslims adhere to this view of Islam, it renders them incapable of living harmoniously and peacefully within the multi-cultural, multi-religious societies of the 21st century.[23]

It is clear that Orthodox Islam continues to drive its adherents to “incite violence against others.” Shouldn’t those words and teachings of incitement to violence be banned? The historical and current records show that if nations and civilizations allow the violent teachings of Islam to propagate, those civilizations or nations run the extreme risk of perishing under the tyranny of Islam.

Thus, it is a question that goes far beyond the issues of freedom of speech and freedom of religion. It is a dire and immediate issue of the survival of the free countries of the world. It creates an obligation to prevent the murders and extermination of millions of people around the world who disagree with Islam and are not willing to live as second-class citizens (“dhimmis”) or convert to Islam.

Can Islamic incitements to violence be legally banned?

The National Coalition Against Censorship has a white paper called “When Can Speech Be Punished? A Primer on Unprotected Incitement to Violence.” It states:

Incitement to violence, including incitement to racial violence, is not protected by the First Amendment. This is a very narrow exception; mere advocacy of violence cannot be made criminal “except where such advocacy is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action.” Three elements must be met: (1) the speaker must intend to cause violence, (2) he or she must intend that the violence occur immediately, and (3) the violence must be likely to occur immediately.[24]

Islam clearly fulfills the requirement in (1) “intend to cause violence.” Two and three restrict the test to “immediately.” Islam does not match that requirement at all times.

Note that this standard of law was passed by the US Supreme Court and can thus be revised by the Supreme Court to remove the requirement that the incitement be immediate.

Education Is the Key

We must, as members of Western civilization (and any non-Islamic civilization) ask these questions:

  1. Since Islam clearly teaches that it will conquer all of humanity, by force if necessary, and in so doing will remove all the sacred liberties that humanity was created to enjoy, should we allow that doctrine of conquest to grow and be acted upon?
  2. Should we allow Imams to teach the doctrines of Jihad and incite their followers to commit acts of violence?

After World War II, General Douglass MacArthur’s administration of Japan included the banning of Emperor worship and the teachings of Japanese supremacy. Because they were outlawed, and replaced with educational curricula that taught the concepts of democratic freedom, a new generation of Japanese citizens grew up with a different mindset. Japan became America’s friend because the philosophies of the Japanese people evolved in the direction of freedom.[25]

I believe that we must do something similar with the problem of Islam.

If Muslims continue to be taught that America is the Great Satan and Western civilization must be destroyed and replaced with Mohammedism and Islamic Sharī‘ah law, and if Western citizens are not awakened to the direct peril of Islam, then the remaining countries of the West will be subsumed, just as all of the Christian countries that Islam dominated were lost to tyranny.

This is a very real threat. The Indonesian Muslim leader, Yahya Cholil Staquf, warned the West of this danger in his 2017 interview:

Over the past 50 years, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states have spent massively to promote their ultra-conservative version of Islam worldwide. After allowing this to go unchallenged for so many decades, the West must finally exert decisive pressure upon the Saudis to cease this behavior.[26]

Orthodox Islam is hell-bent on destroying the West. Of course, Marxism might destroy the West first. It’s a deadly race between two totalitarian evils.

What direct steps can the West take about the dangers of Orthodox Islam, ethically and legally?

As Dr. Warner emphasizes, it doesn’t matter if someone believes in Mohammed—per se. The issues are the religious and political mandates to conquer the West that come with that belief. There are indeed Muslim reformers who abhor the medieval violence of Orthodox Islam, including the aforementioned Indonesian Muslim moderates of the Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) organization. They follow “Humanitarian Islam.” They reject a global caliphate and have published declarations that:

…emphasize the legitimacy of modern states’ constitutional and legal systems, and thus reject the idea that it is a religious obligation to establish a state based on Islamic law.

Additionally, these declarations stress the importance of equal citizenship by refusing to make a distinction between Muslims and non-Muslims as legal categories.

They call for a deeper cooperation among Muslims, Christians and followers of other religions to promote world peace.[2]

I honor the motivations of the Muslim reformers and hope that they’re successful. The West should support them and work with them wholeheartedly. Yet, I doubt that Islam can be reformed to become a true religion of peace because the central heart of Islam is Mohammed, and Mohammed—as evidenced by Islamic teachings—was a Very Bad Man. Reforming Islam would mean rejecting Mohammed, which would mean that it would no longer be Islam.

If we can’t criticize Mohammed, I believe that reform will be severely limited. There is some thought that the teachings about Mohammed are inaccurate and can thus be dispensed with. Unfortunately, it’s not just Mohammed. The Qur’an itself is filled with violence and hatred toward “kafirs” or unbelievers. A genuine reform of Islam would leave a very thin book.

Thus, it’s my view that the real, ultimate solution to the global threat from the violence inherent within Islam is that the majority of Muslims must reject and leave Islam, and thus reject Mohammed and his teachings.

Action Steps

To hasten that day, there are steps we can and should take.

Muslim incitements to violence, whether immediate or long-range, should be clearly illegal. Incitements to tear down Western civilization must be illegal. Actions that support those incitements (such as Islamic education and propaganda) must be illegal as well. That will mean the closing of Orthodox mosques and the deportation of Orthodox imams and other Orthodox Muslims who participate and contribute to the destruction of constitutional freedoms.

These are steps that will shock many and thus it is vital that the governments of free nations begin a substantial and long-range effort to educate their citizens about the immediate dangers of Orthodox Islam. Think “Radio Free America.”

One thing is clear. We cannot—cannot—allow the cancer of violent Sharī‘ah Islam to destroy American freedoms and free civilizations around the world.

Can we find the willpower, bravery, and wisdom to safeguard our freedoms? I am sure that we can, but will we?

Democrats Total Disconnect from Reality

By Lex Greene

December 28, 2023

We have to face the reality that our government, through satanic Hollyweird, the government-controlled news media, social media, academia, and the worst K thru 12 education system anywhere in the developed world, has managed to cause a total disconnect from reality in their deaf and blind loyalists.

And…All true Americans will be forced to deal with it in 2024…by whatever necessary. Today’s democrats are as anti-American as George Soros, Klaus Schwab, BLM, ANTIFA, Bill Gates and the pro-Hamas terrorists in our streets.

No matter how peaceful and patient conservatives remain, democrats will continue to ratchet up their anti-American violence, theft, arson, and mob rule, eventually leaving Americans no choice but to confront their evil.

Today’s democrat voters have sunken to the bottom of the anti-American pit headed for hell. In truth, they have been Pavlov-trained driven to hell by their lying, cheating, criminal anti-American Party leaders. Unfortunately, they are so disconnected from reality now, that many of them are beyond reform or salvation.

I’ll talk about misled Republicans in another piece. Right now, America has a huge problem in the democrat voting bloc, including millions of illegal votes in their ranks. If real Americans are not ready to deal with this, our Constitutional Republic may gasp its last breath long before the November 2024 elections.

Nothing current democrat voters believe is true…

  • They believe there’s more than two human genders…There is not.
  • They believe in the Climate Change hoax, despite science proving that there hasn’t been any abnormal climate change on earth since the Ice Age.
  • They believe that socialism and communism are better than freedom and liberty.
  • They believe that Trump is a criminal despite every attempt to charge him having resulted in acquittal after acquittal.
  • They believe that false accusations are enough to convict someone without a trial or judicial conviction.
  • They believe that Trump was involved in “Russian Collusion” despite all evidence proving it was the Clinton Campaign and DNC who was caught colluding with numerous foreign enemies in an effort to take down Trump.
  • They believe “nobody supports Trump” despite knowing that Trump leads the GOP primary field by 50-points or more, at 69% in GOP polls and gaining ground with democrats and independents.
  • They believe that women have a “constitutionally protected Right” to murder their own children in the womb, despite a fundamental Right to Life in our Founding documents.
  • They believe Biden won the 2020 elections despite Biden not even campaigning, and Trump receiving 11-million more votes in 2020 than he won with in 2016.
  • They believe America is a “democracy” when the Constitution guarantees every Citizen and State “a republican form of government.” They don’t even know the critical difference between the two.
  • They support known global terrorists like Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, and the #1 terror sponsor state Iran.
  • They believe they are entitled to the earnings, incomes, and assets of those who work hard to earn those things and they vote for candidate who will rob others to give to them.
  • They believe Biden is a great President, knowing he can’t complete an intelligible sentence or even read a teleprompter correctly. Kamala Harris is even worse.
  • They love Obama, even though it’s foreign agent Obama who doubled the national debt in eight years, divided our country beyond repair, and set our country on the path to extinction.
  • They believe that illegal invaders should have a Right to vote if that’s what it takes to win elections and get more taxpayer-funded gifts from the treasury.
  • They believe that lying and cheating, even political persecution is an acceptable means to an end.
  • They believe J6 was an “insurrection” despite the FBI Investigation concluding that there is no evidence of an “insurrection” on that day.
  • They believe Trump is guilty based on false accusations alone, instead of innocent until proven guilty, no matter how many times Trump is charged and acquitted.
  • They believe they have a right to riot, loot, burn cities and murder to get what they want, that which they lack the decency and courage to EARN.
  • And they also believe that it’s right for government to be weaponized against all political opponents, without realizing that those weapons will take them down too in the end.

I could keep going for a few pages here, but this should be enough for any sane person to conclude that the future of our country is not safe in the hands of people who have quite clearly…lost their minds.

Democrat voters have been so dumbed down and drugged up that they now represent a serious threat to the future of freedom, liberty, real justice, peace, and tranquility. Our country is doomed to extinction in their hands.

If this truth offends you, then the shoe must fit, and you should kick yourself with it!

Today’s democrat voters are the most immoral, unethical, ignorant, lying, cheating scumbags in our country. Our country would be far safer and happier without any of them!

As for you so-called “independents” who lack the courage or good sense to take a side in the fight for the future of this country, shame on you! You people act like there’s such a thing as perfect candidates in a world full of nothing but imperfect people. Grow up…realize that as long as you sit on that fence, your future is doomed along with everyone elses. You’ll get no award for helping to destroy this country by simply refusing to work with others to prevent it.

America is in very deep trouble now, thanks to many who have chosen Satan’s path, and those who have refused to work with others to save this nation.

Everything on the list above is true and we all know it. We cannot continue to “go-along to get-along” because at the end of that road is total collapse of a once great nation and people. Modern Marxist democrats have become entirely intolerable.

There are some fights in this world where the odds do not matter. Some fights have to be made no matter the odds, because it’s the right thing to do and the future of our way of life will depend upon it.

On December 25, 2023, millions of Americans celebrated Christmas almost as if everything is normal, when nothing is normal or even safe right now.

But on December 25, 1776, General George Washington crossed the Delaware in freezing temperatures without even shoes on their feet, to free this country from a tyrannical rule that was nowhere near as bad as the tyranny coming from our own government today.

It’s going to require that level of commitment from every American to free this country from government tyranny again, in 2024.

If We the People are not up to this challenge, even God will not save this nation! Believe it…because God isn’t a dictator, he gave free will and works through his people here on earth. God is in “total control,” but what God chose to do with his control, is put each of us in control of our own destiny and that of this blessed country.

WE are God’s stewards responsible for what happens in this country. We all have a duty, the same as our forefathers. God will provide for our victory if we stand together to fight evil. If God was going to do it alone, he would not have needed Moses or Noah.

Let’s get busy!

We Can Beat the Woke!

by Lee Duigon

December 21, 2023

A friend has distressed me by saying we don’t have anything left but our votes. Heaven forbid.

We can beat the Woke. And here’s how.

More Boycotts. Why should we patronize Woke businesses? Haven’t we learned, from the example of Bud Light, that we don’t have to take this guff? Pour it on! They’ll give up before we do.

Pull Our Children Out of Public Schools. That might do it right there. Wokies are so busy aborting their babies, and making their children sterile through “gender reassignment,” that the only hope for them is to use the schools—that we pay for!—to turn children against their families, against their country, and against God. That’s what public schools are for.

Home schooling is now more affordable and more effective than ever. Teachers’ unions want to groom your kids for sex. But they can’t do it if the kids stay home.

Above all, stop fighting among ourselves! Now is the time for all hands on deck. Our grievances amongst ourselves are nothing, compared to what the Wokies and the globalists have in mind for us. The enemy is out there, everybody! Out there in the schools and universities, Hollywood, inane celebrities—and in the Democrat Party. Yes, our votes ought to count for something. We certainly can’t afford to stay away from the polls. We have to reform our election laws, after the travesty that was the 2020 national elections. Getting into pissing contests with each other will only help to sink us. President Trump and Governor DeSantis, this means you. Stop fighting! The fight’s out there.

Stop Being Afraid. There’s a whole world out there waiting for the pushback flare to go up. Very few people actually like the woke DeLuxe Fun Pack! Those characters we’re up against are not what they claim to be. They are not Smart. They are not Righteous. Their program doesn’t work—never has, never will. They are idiots, with a hefty sprinkling of villains. John Kerry—are we going to be afraid of John Kerry? The World Economic Forum?

Give them mockery, not fear.

It should hardly be necessary to say these things. I have kept this essay short because its point is self-evident.

We are many more than they are, we are stronger—we are better. Let’s prove it.

I have discussed these and other topics throughout the week on my blog, http://www.leeduigon.com/ . Click the link, drop in for a visit, show some solidarity! My articles can also be found at www.chalcedon.edu/ .

Looking Back on 2023: Painfully Looking Toward 2024

By Frosty Wooldridge

December 21, 2023

Historians will record 2023 as the year Joe Biden started into motion the destruction of the United States of America.  They will record his incompetence, his dementia, his corrupt family’s financial greed on the international stage, and his handlers’ incredible duplicity to prop him up with stimulants, teleprompter speeches and their sheer arrogance for holding onto power.  They will record that his only achievements were shaking hands with the air and giving speeches that meant nothing for 50 years of a career living off the public dole.

Historians will record the most devastating invasion by 8,000,000 refugees, in 36 months of Biden’s reign, of illegal aliens from all over the world who burst across America’s borders with no regard for our laws, our way of life, our culture, our language and our freedoms. They were not invited, and they had no right to break our laws.  This invasion heading into its 36th month, will prove the undoing of our cities, our infrastructure, our welfare systems, our schools, our language, our culture, and most of all, our ability to continue as a functioning society.

Those historians will write that the American people sat on their hands along with 535 Congressional Critters—-and did nothing to stop the invasion.  They will record numerous 9/11 repeats, big and small, by terrorists invited over our borders by our own president. Those historians will ponder how stupid, how ignorant, how absolutely insane the inaction of our leaders.

If you look back on December 7, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt said about Pearl Harbor, “A date that will live in infamy.”  Joe Biden’s speech writers should write, “I, Joe Biden, invited this invasion of our country…and my actions will be written in history books as my presidency goes down in flames and infamy.”

Historians will record that this open-borders policy will prove in the years ahead to be what the social scientist Garrett Hardin called, “The Tragedy of the Commons.”  “The tragedy of the commons is a metaphoric label for a concept that is widely discussed in economics, ecology and other sciences. According to the concept, should a number of people enjoy unfettered access to a finite, valuable resource such as a pasture, they will tend to over-use it, and may end up destroying its value altogether. To exercise voluntary restraint is not a rational choice for individuals – if they did, the other users would merely supplant them – yet the predictable result is a tragedy for all.”

These uninvited aliens will overrun, overwhelm, overuse and destroy any chance for us to remain a viable and sustainable civilization.  Again, those aliens stem from 83,000,000 new babies, net gain, they add to the planet every single year. Historians will record that America, Canada and Europe boldly and stupidly destroyed their Western Heritage, and overwhelmed their ability to remain sustainable civilizations.

Additionally, those historians will record that America committed national suicide by inviting some 4 to 8 million Islamic Muslims whose sole purpose remains to infiltrate Western countries and by their sheer numbers, they will install the barbaric, violent and incompatible to Western Civilization—Sharia Law.

Those historians will note that America allowed its own 540,000 homeless citizens to remain homeless while it transported, housed, fed and medically cared for 8,000,000 people who did not belong to America nor were they invited and, in fact, could not function in an already overpopulated country of 350 to 370 million people.  They will record in the history books that America housed 50 million foreign born people in 2023 and another 20 million foreign born illegal aliens who possessed no affinity or compatibility to Western thought, Western laws and/or Western ideals.

Those same historians will write questions as to who wanted to destroy Western Countries?  How did those who wanted to destroy Western civilization gain such a foothold?  Why did they want to destroy the most successful civilizations on Earth such as America, Canada, Europe and Australia?   I think it was the historian Seymour Lipset who said, “Great civilizations are not conquered by the sword; they commit suicide.”  Rome died from alien migration.  Troy died by taking in the Trojan Horse.  France died in 2023 with over 5,000,000 Muslim refuges who possessed no affinity for Western laws, religion or culture.  Same with every other European nation. The historians will scratch their heads as to “Why?’

As the historians write about 2023, they will ask why Americans cared more about Ukraine than Europeans?  They will ask how and why Americans invited millions of incompatible Muslims into America, so much so, that those same Muslims supported Hamas’ barbaric brutality, barbaric killing and barbaric torturing of innocent women and children?   They will ask why an entire religion wants to exterminate another religion such as the Jews of Israel.

Those same historians will remark that once the Muslims kill every last Jew on planet Earth, who will they go after next?  And, how will that make their lives better? What did they accomplish that Hitler didn’t accomplish?

As to the many crimes in America in 2023, the historians will speak to 100,000 drug overdose deaths of young Americans. They will ask why Biden allowed those drugs to fill every city street in America…yet 33 percent of Americans supported Biden’s actions. Why?

Those same historians will ask why a country that’s $33 trillion in debt kept giving money to Iran and other middle eastern countries that want to see the “Great Satan” destroyed?   Those historians will ask why Americans allowed $100 billion annually in shoplifting crimes to go unpunished?   They will ask why America allowed so many people in Chicago, LA, San Francisco, Detroit, New Orleans and NYC to shoot each other by the thousands?  Why weren’t solutions engaged?

Historians will wonder why American politicians worked against the American peoples’ best interests.

The Prospects for 2024

Dear fellow American,

The coming year will bring more pain, more wars, more drug deaths, more shoplifting into the billions of dollars, more destroyed American  schools, more illegal aliens and more breakdown of American society by another 2 to 4 million illegal aliens about to break into our country.

As an observing historian, I don’t see anything getting better. I see  everything getting worse.  I see another 100,000 young people dying from drug overdoses because Joe Biden opened the borders to unlimited deadly drugs and cartels that distribute those drugs to every city and school in America.

Those 8,000,000 million illegal aliens are going to turn into 10,000,000 illegal aliens at current border crossings daily over 10,000  24/7.  At a bare minimum of another 5 to 10 million of their babies, we’ll  be seeing our country turned into a permanent collection of refugees who manifest poverty, crime, diseases, illiteracy and terror.

All of us average citizens will be affected by the largest and fastest invasion of any country in the history of the world.

The year 2024 will prove pivotal, dangerous and devastating.  If we allow a decrepit, senile, corrupt old man to continue what he has done for the past 36 months, America will not survive as an intact, single culture, single language, and/or single people ever again.

From me to you, I fear for America in 2024.

Donald Trump and Antifragility

By Steven Yates

December 27, 2023

“Some things benefit from shocks; they thrive and grow when exposed to volatility, randomness, disorder, and stressors; and love adventure, risk, and uncertainty. Yet, in spite of the ubiquity of the phenomenon, there is no word for the exact opposite of fragile. Let us call it antifragile.

“Antifragility is beyond resilience or robustness. The resilient resists shocks and stays the same; the antifragile gets better.”  —Nassim Nicholas Taleb, Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder (2012)

To my mind, Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s book Antifragile is one of the most important of the new millennium so far. Dense and demanding, but rich and encyclopedic, this book is a must read for those wondering how the world of the 21st century could work if allowed to do so — whatever your ideology or perspective.

The basic idea is not especially complicated. If something is fragile, it breaks easily. Think of your average wineglass. My wife accidentally knocked one off our kitchen counter the other day. When it hit the floor, it shattered. That’s fragility.

If something is resilient, it doesn’t break when you drop it. Wood and plastic implements are resilient. I accidentally dropped a burger flipper a couple of weeks ago. I picked it up, cleaned it off, kept using it.

People can develop resilience (informally called “grit”) and weather a lot of personal storms that cause the emotionally fragile to go to pieces.

If something or someone is antifragile, though, it/he/she benefits from opposition, struggle, stress, disorder, unpredictability. In human life, this is a choice we can make, even if most people never make that choice.

Author and latter day Stoic philosopher Ryan Holiday wrote a book a few years ago that I also recommend: The Obstacle Is the Way (2014). Ryan’s basic claim: we’re all going to encounter disappointments, setbacks, obstacles, even failures. We have no control over these, because we don’t control the circumstances that lead to them. What we have control over is our responses. We can allow failures to stop us in our tracks, or we can learn from them and get stronger, more knowledgeable, better.

The most basic Stoic adage is that we can distinguish what we can control from what we can’t control. We get into trouble when we confuse the two.

We cannot control the opinions of others, any more than we can control traffic, the weather, or what the economy is doing. Which is why we shouldn’t worry about them but just let them go. Learn from them if possible; otherwise, forget them.

And then continue with our goals, which we control.

In other words, to be antifragile is not just to survive opposition, but to thrive on it, to get stronger from it, having used it as psychic fuel.

Kind of sounds like Donald Trump’s campaign to recapture the presidency, doesn’t it?

And why, contrary to the official narrative, the Colorado Supreme Court may have just handed him the presidency — a lot of other things being equal, of course.

It’s clear, from Trump’s rising poll numbers and Biden’s falling ones, that if the election were held today, and making the (admittedly tall) assumption it was honest, Trump would win in a landslide!

As Frank Luntz of all people (of CNN) recently conceded, “Donald Trump thrives on negativity…. I’m convinced that his polling numbers are going to go up….  Trump is gaining. The more he is prosecuted, the more he is condemned, the higher his numbers go, as people rally around him.”

That’s antifragility! Trump is antifragile! Intentionally or instinctively!

Consider: when the globalist-leftist alliance controlled FBI raised his house gestapo-style in Mar-a-Lago in August of 2022, his poll numbers went up. When Trump was indicted by the New York City Grand Jury early this year at behest of a corrupt, Soros-backed (Democrat) attorney general, his poll numbers went up further. His prosecution at the hands of more Democrats in Georgia has helped his numbers even more. And finally, despite his prosecution in the Asylum on the Potomac for his supposed involvement in the January 6 “insurrection,” he’s now leading Biden in all but one of the swing states, and as if this writing he’s leading Biden nationally by around 10%!

There is no reason to think this Colorado Supreme Court decision declaring that Trump’s name will be removed from the state’s primary ballot is going to be any different, and so far, it hasn’t been different.

His supporters — the “deplorables,” the “uneducated,” etc., etc. — recognize that every bit of this is political. The New York charge is substanceless. Judge Arthur Engoron, clearly no mathematical genius as shown by his blithe dismissal the other day of an actual expert on how these sorts of finances work, clearly has nothing. He’s unilaterally declared Trump and his organization guilty of fraud without a real trial because somehow, I have to suspect, he knows his case is a nothing-burger.

He is, in a sense, “just following orders”: those with real power want Trump stopped.

The same is true of civil cases like those of E. Jean Carroll, who can’t even remember the year of the alleged “sexual assault.” Her lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, is one of the most powerful people in the legal profession, however.

Everything they’ve done to date, Trump and his base of support has turned around on them, the result being that Trump has gotten stronger and his likelihood of defeating Biden in any actual free and fair election has only increased.

Trump is now stronger than he’s ever been!

I’ll say it again! That’s antifragility!

Coming to the Colorado Supreme Court decision which has thrown a lot of people because once read carefully and completely, it isn’t really a decision at all!

Four leftist justices unilaterally declared that Trump should not appear on the Colorado primary ballot because he’s an “insurrectionist,” although he’s not been charged, much less convicted, of any such crime.

It fits an official narrative, though, and this should indicate how important official narratives are.

Can you now be punished for a crime you’ve not even been charged with, much less convicted of, because it fits a narrative?

Apparently, in the New Normal, if your name is Donald Trump, you can!

So much for the much-vaunted rule of law.

The Colorado Supreme Court went on, however, to stay their decision until January 4 of next year, giving the U.S. Supreme Court the opportunity to weigh in on the matter. In other words, Trump’s name is still on the Colorado primary ballot. The ruling means nothing until the U.S. Supreme Court acts on it.

The leftist Democrats behind this ruling understood that Trump’s legal team was going to appeal immediately.

It’s as if they see this whole thing as theater, and themselves as bit players.

Does anyone really believe the Supreme Court is going to let this decision stand?

If they did, leaving the matter of whether to retain Trump on their primary ballots or remove him, other “blue” states would quickly follow Colorado’s lead. Something like 14 states are considering such moves, although they’ve been rejected in Minnesota and in Michigan. The most likely result would be a totally unprecedented state of affairs where some states would have Trump on their primary ballots and others wouldn’t.

That would precipitate chaos! Even liberals ought to be able to see that!

Or the Supremes could also declare Trump an “insurrectionist” in the manner of Colorado — Because We Say So — despite the absence of any actual conviction in any court of law (conviction corporate media never used to count). That would kick him off every primary ballot in every state, on 14th Amendment grounds.

This would mean two things.

No one is reading the 14th Amendment completely, as I’ve explained elsewhere  (see also here).

But beyond that, any such decision would end any and all remaining pretenses that the U.S. is really a democracy. Permanently.

I’ve contended, also elsewhere (numerous places), that the U.S. is more of a plutocratic oligarchy than a democracy, but never mind that now. The pretense exists that Trump is a “threat to democracy,” and that keeping him off ballots therefore “secures democracy.”

When every other gambit has failed, said elites (or, more exactly, their visible servants) would have ended the right of the (probably) 90 million or so people ready to cast ballots for Trump to do so.

Does a real democracy do that?

No, of course not! As is typical of our New Normal, the truth is exactly the reverse of the official narrative, as should be clear from the application of simple logic. You do not preserve democracy by denying people the right to vote for the candidate of their choice.

Reading well-heeled corporate mainstream media, from The Washington Post to The Atlantic Monthly, it’s clear how fearful its owners are of Trump 2.0.

Why?

Because whatever his faults which I don’t deny, Trump is the person presently feared the most by GloboCorp, the Establishment, the ruling globalist elites, as well as their many leftist on-the-ground foot soldiers in government, media, academia, and elsewhere.

He is the biggest existential threat to their plans for total global domination to emerge in our lifetimes.

The vast support Trump has out in the hinterlands is an indicator of the degree to which the ruling elites are despised.

He is feared all the more because he’s unquestionably a lot less naïve now than he was back in 2017. Back then, he didn’t know who to appoint. Some of his appointees turned out to be worthless, or worse: they sold him down the river.

Were he to win in 2024, he’d refuse to appoint people he doesn’t know well, whom he isn’t sure are on board with his policies, and who might therefore work to undermine him. One of his first acts, which he’s already promised, will be to end the disastrous open borders policy that characterizes the Bidenista era. He is also just liable to end the equally disastrous sending of billions to that cesspool of corruption on Russia’s border, meaning that the war there will be ended in days, not months or even weeks. This will save lives on both sides. Trump will recognize that Putin’s motive, all along, has been to promote the interests of Russia, and of ethnic Russians, not to dominate the world. The future of NATO, a Cold War era alliance that has outlived its usefulness, will be in doubt.

This, among other policies of a Trump Administration 2.0, will end everything the globalist-leftist alliance wants, including the authoritarianism which they’ve projected onto everyone who has worked against them.

GloboCorp is increasingly up against a wall. Could it prevent the scenario above?

Yes, but not without giving away the game.

Frankly, I think this the globalist-leftist alliance very dangerous!

Because even antifragility has limits!

When 2024 gets here in a few days, we enter probably the most dangerous period any of us have seen in our lives. Whatever happens with some of the scenarios I’ve sketched, the country and possibly the world are going to look very different a year from now than they do today. I don’t believe the ruling elites want to assassinate Trump. But only because that could cause repercussions they’d have a very hard time controlling, and by doing so, they’d give away their game all that much faster. They might decide that they are close enough to their goal of global dominance — technocratic world government serving their corporations, and a fully digital currency operated through their central banks — that they might just say, in effect, “The h*** with it!”

At that point, all bets are off!

Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!

New Minnesota Flag: Your Country Is Being Handed Off To Foreigners

By Bradlee Dean

December 27, 2023

“As long as you remember that if you get involved in politics you have to be very careful that your leader is Allah.  You get involved in politics because politics are a weapon to use in the cause of Islam.” –Siraj Wahhaj

Refugees come from a failed state, failed ideas, and failed family structure in asking for American asylum, only to find that they are not here to assimilate but to drag their culture in with them (Deuteronomy 28:43).

They are doing this in spite of the fact that the mainstream media working hand in glove with corrupt politicians claiming for 18 years that they were terrorists.

Their contribution to our society as we know it:

Daycare fraud, Marriage fraud, dismantling of the educational system, in putting theirs in the place of ours, giving them prayer in place of our Christian heritage in both the schools and the workplaces.  They are even going so far as to give them a call to prayer citywide.  Then, they are given representative roles in the halls of government only to have them attack us.  Yet, Minnesotans already knew this and did nothing, all this with the help of our spineless capitulating politicians who have failed to uphold constitutional law (Psalm 94:16).

Just when you didn’t think it could go any further, we find ourselves with a terror-tied representative named Ilhan Omar.

She is also the one who likes to defend the enemies that are at war with Americans.

If that is not good enough, she is looking to gain insurance policies for Muslims from Minnesota who fight on behalf of ISIS.  Can you make this up?  Not at all.

Oh yes, and if you were thinking to yourselves that she has the support of people from the Middle East, please do think again.

No, the only ones supporting these “useful idiots” (Their demise is included) within are the powers that are tolerated behind these bad actors.  They are being used as political battering rams to upend America as you know it (Proverbs 26:27).

Out-of-their-own Mouths the Muslims are Telling You Their Plans to Infiltrate American Government – video

Now, knowing all of this, you would think that people could put two and two together, but apparently, not.

Minnesota’s finest corrupt politicians just decided, without delegated authority, to go ahead and create a new flag that just happens to look much like the one from the country that Ilhan Omar came from in Northern Africa.  This is a sign of victory, a conquering. Are you paying attention?

Famous preacher John Wesley stated long ago, “Ever since the religion of Islam appeared in the world, the espousers of it…have been as wolves and tigers to all other nations, rending and tearing all that fell into their merciless paws, and grinding them with their iron teeth; that numberless cities are raised from the foundation, and only their name remaining; that many countries, which were once as the garden of God, are now a desolate wilderness; and that so many once numerous and powerful nations are vanished from the earth! Such was, and is at this day, the rage, the fury, the revenge, of these destroyers of human kind”.

Conclusion: The American people, along with the churches and politicians, need to, for their own sake, quit acting like the battlefield is a playground.

Will Trump’s Attorney’s Stop the Second Steal in Nov. 2024?

By: Devvy

December 26, 2023

“I think that if Biden was on a gurney and couldn’t move anything but his eyes to blink ‘yes’ or ‘no,’ he’s our person.” Conspiracy theorist, actor Robert DeNiro.

Americans paying attention to the zeitgeist of dirty political shenanigans currently underway to keep a presidential candidate off the ballot are beyond angry.  As should all fair-minded Americans.

The shadow government who owns Washington District of Criminals are backed into a corner as their plans to destroy Donald Trump with bogus lawsuits has backfired in their evil faces.  Conspiracy theorist, Jack Smith, appointed by low intelligent illegitimate U.S. Attorney General, Merrick Garland is a major player in this grotesque game and he’s in trouble.

GATEWAY PUNDIT EXCLUSIVE: Allegations of Procedural Missteps Surface Against Special Counsel John Luman Smith, aka Jack Smith, Dec. 24, 2023.  Of course, conspiracy theorist clowns who blabber lies upon lies 24/7 on radio and “news” networks about Trump don’t feel it’s necessary for the American people to know this about Jack Smith.  Larry Johnson is the author and he is a very credible, accurate investigator:  BREAKING: Trump Prosecutor, Jack Smith’s Alleged Role In Extortion Scheme While At the International Court of Justice Is Revealed, Dec. 13, 2023  //  Former AG Pens Jaw-Dropping Letter to Supreme Court: Jack Smith’s Appointment as Special Counsel Wasn’t Legal  //  The Hitman Is Exposed!… Former DNI Ratcliffe: Jack Smith Lost More than a Legal Issue at Supreme Court – This May Be His Bob Mueller Moment (VIDEO), Dec. 24, 2023

Dirty Big Fani Willis

Georgia Gov.  Brian Kemp is allegedly a very popular governor who hates Donald Trump.  Why?  Because Trump exposed the thoroughly corrupt election in Nov, 2020 in his state.  Democrats love Kemp and Raffensberger for being key figures in covering up the massive election fraud.  The Unreachables and low information voters have NO idea just how bad the stealing of an election was in Georgia aided and abetted by Kemp for turning a blind eye.  And quite frankly, the Unreachables don’t give a damn just as long as their party favorite wins.

I’ve written about this before:  I watched every hearing on election fraud in GA, NV, PA, AZ and the other swing states.  Countless hours and even more reading every brief filed in all the lawsuits.  The evidence to this day is overwhelming Trump and the tens and tens of millions of Americans who voted for Donald Trump were all cheated to install a career criminal with dementia back then.

All the conspiracy theorists who write for propaganda rags like the Washington Post, LA Times, the NY Times (all the news that’s fit to fake) and all the “leftist” web sites. Blabber mouths on CNN, NBC, ABC, FOX, MSNBC and even big name talk radio show hosts who continue to vomit up “President Biden” won the election are either completely ignorant of the proven numbers and cheating or political hacks who’ve disgraced their reputations and are as Un-American as the commies infesting college campuses poisoning the minds of their students.

One of their favorite mantras is “Trump tried to overturn the election.” Carefully worded propaganda devoid of truth.  You can’t overturn an election that was decided by fraud and in violation of federal election law.

Big Fani Willis is as dirty as a newborn’s diaper.  Big Fani is a political whore who sold her soul for personal and political gain.  GOP GA Gov. Brian Kemp continues to protect her.  Georgia’s dirty GOP Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, who played a major role in covering up Trump’s win in Georgia is missing in action.

Kemp Says Special Session On Fani Willis Conduct / Indictments WILL NOT HAPPEN, Aug. 31, 2023 – “We have a law in the state of Georgia that clearly outlines the legal steps that can be taken if constituents believe their local prosecutors are violating their oath by engaging in unethical or illegal behavior,” Kemp said.

“Kemp said, up to now, he has not seen any evidence that warrants any action by the prosecuting attorneys oversight commission.  If that is the case let us point out some for you Mr. Governor:” Rest at link and please note the dates.

This is the quintessential example of a conspiracy theorist using clever word-smithing to convince readers a lie is the truth:  Georgia’s Election Denying Lt. Governor Attacks 2020 Hero Brad Raffensperger Over ‘Election Integrity’ – “Georgia’s election-denying Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones (R) debuted a new broadside against his fellow Republican, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, over his supposed failure to champion “election integrity” on Monday.

“Has anyone seen Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger? You know, the same guy who’s supposed to uphold our state’s election integrity?” asked the ad’s narrator, who went on to lay into him for his failure to attend state senate appropriations and election hearings, as well as for supposedly having “only worked 42 days this year.”  Continuing:

“Jones was a vocal believer in and propagator of Trump’s lies about the 2020 election. In December of that year, Jones signed a petition calling on Kemp to convene the Georgia legislature to reallocate the state’s electoral votes.

“Georgia Patriot Call to Action: today is the day we need you to call your state Senate & House Reps & ask them to sign the petition for a special session. We must have free & fair elections in GA & this is our only path to ensuring every legal vote is counted. @realDonaldTrump,” wrote Jones on X while promoting the petition.

“The lieutenant governor was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Fulton County election case brought against Trump in August.”

Okay, let me get this straight.  Gov. Kemp and SOS Raffensperger are both guilty of covering up the stolen election in Georgia in Nov. 2020. Both claim Biden won fair and square.  Both allegedly get reelected.

The voters then elect a Lt. Gov. who says the 2020 election for Donald Trump was stolen.  (All three are Republicans.) Does that make any sense to you?  Oh, and Big Fani went after Lt. Gov. Jones:  Co-Conspirator Individual 8: Georgia Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, Aug. 16, 2023 – “Then-Georgia state Sen. Jones was one of the so-called fake electors who tried to give Georgia’s 16 electoral votes to former president Donald Trump instead of President Joe Biden.

“Because of a conflict of interest, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was ordered not to include Jones in any possible prosecution.”  Who ordered Big Fani to drop Jones and when? 

Perhaps it has something to do with Big Fani and investigative piece below.  This is a very long read but I encourage you to take the time – especially if you live in Georgia to read itA five-star investigation that’s far from over.

The ONLY way to root out corruption is to dedicate the time and effort to see bottom feeders like Big Fani Willis indicted, tried and convicted should a jury find her guilty.  Which I have no doubt would happen after I spent many hours (usually in the evening when it’s quiet and my doggies have a full belly and snooze away) cross checking and deep diving into the players.  That investigative piece is deadly serious.

“Explosive Revelation: Fani Willis Linked To Massive Election Fraud And Money Laundering RICO Enterprise!”, Aug. 31, 2023 – “In a shocking turn of events, a bombshell investigation has uncovered jaw-dropping connections between Fani Willis and a sprawling web of election fraud and money laundering activities.”

“The investigation, which spans across multiple states and multiple jurisdictions, has revealed a complex network of illicit operations aimed at undermining the very foundation of our Constitutional Republic and the rule of law. Sources close to the matter suggest that Willis was a massive beneficiary in the Federal and Georgia RICO enterprises. It appears that she is currently playing a key role in orchestrating a systematic scheme to manipulate election outcomes, casting doubt on the integrity of the entire electoral process.

“In the lead up to the 2022 midterm elections, my team uncovered a massive money laundering network of campaign finance contributions being made via ActBlue. One of the top beneficiaries of this money laundering RICO enterprise was none other than Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock. The Gateway Pundit was the first news organization to cover the massive money laundering network that financed the Raphael Warnock campaign.

“As our investigation progressed, we expanded our efforts into other states such as Missouri, Maryland, Wisconsin, Arizona, and then into every single state.

“Working with the Epoch Times investigative journalist Steven Kovac, we made a stunning find. Many of the top ActBlue “Contributors” never made the individual contributions. Many of these “Not Employed Individual Contributors” were the victims of a highly sophisticated money laundering scheme.

“The scheme was further exposed when I provided the data to James O’Keefe and his people at O’Keefe Media Group who captured many unwitting “Money Laundering Smurfs” in Maryland.

“This massive ongoing money laundering operation involves wire fraud, evasion of campaign finance limits, structuring of financial transactions, tax fraud, non profit fraud, identity theft, and elder abuse.

“The RICO operation is still in operation today. Using the identities of unwitting elderly, and other democrat voters, this massive RICO money laundering enterprise is the fuel for the entire election fraud RICO operation.

This is as disgraceful as the sham impeachment trial against our (TX) Attorney General, Ken Paxton this past summer.  I wrote Sen. Colton Moore thanking him for standing for the truth while his cowardly GOP colleagues tried to destroy him.  Outrageous! Georgia GOP Caucus Ousts Brave State Senator for Trying to Impeach Corrupt Fulton County DA Fani Willis, Sept. 28, 2023

The bad news for the shadow government:  All those indictments against Trump have boosted either new GOP voter registrations or Democrats and independents changing their registration to Republican across the country.  Let’s move on to the next BS lawfare hustle:  Keep Trump off the ballot in more than two dozen states using the Fourteenth Amendment as the bogus basis to “get Trump”.

Four partisan (DemonRats) judges on the Colorado Supreme Court decided Trump should not be allowed on the ballot for planning and inciting an insurrection.  There are still a dozen more ‘blue’ states attempting to do the same thing.  Gee, that’s news because Trump has never been charged, indicted or tried for insurrection regarding the Jan. 6th inside job.  Now, it’s off to the U.S. Supreme Court.  Let me cite from an analysis by a truly wonderful gentleman and skilled attorney, Mario Apuzzo who passed away Oct. 10, 2021, regarding using a Quo Warranto because it goes to the heart of whether or not Trump can even be charged under the Fourteenth Amendment:

Neither the president nor vice president is an officer of the United States

“The impeachment clause of the Constitution does not consider the offices of president and vice president as offices of the United States. Article II, Section 4 provides: “The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.” Note that the sentence does not say “all other” civil Officers of the United States.  For example, members of Congress are not civil officers subject to impeachment and removal.  See “Impeachable Offenses: Early Historical Practice (1789–1860).”

“Notwithstanding the Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3 which does separately list “Senator or Representative in Congress” apart from “any office, civil or military,” but does not separately list the president or vice president, the president would also not be found to be a civil officer subject to the quo warranto statute. Congress in passing the D.C. statute did provide private litigants with a statutory mechanism for bringing quo warranto actions in the DC District Court, but it did not intend for it to apply to ousting sitting Presidents.

“Under the Appointments Clause (Article II, Sec. 2, cl. 2), it is the president that is given the power to make, with the advice and consent of the Senate, appointments of “Officers of the United States” and other positions that are not considered inferior. Given the president’s power to fill these offices and the impeachment mechanism existing in the Constitution, it is doubtful that Congress meant to include the Office of the President itself, which appoints those officers, when it wrote “public office of the United States” in § 16-3501.”

Why didn’t Trump’s attorneys stop the stolen election in 2020 when they had a U.S. Supreme Court ruling on their side? 

I’ve written about this ad nauseum since the Big Steal.  Massive ballot dumps in the middle of the night – hundreds of thousands between Georgia, AZ and Pennsylvania alone.  Mail in ballots not only accepted days or even a week after a federal election ends, but counted.

Counting of ballots put off until the next day.  In Allegheny, PA, counting of ballots stopped at 1:30 am and didn’t resume until the next morning at 10:00 am.  In Fulton County, GA, counting was stopped on Nov. 3rd due to a pipe bursting which was not only fixed, but the polling center was still operational.

All in violation of federal election lawFoster v Love, 522 U.S. 67, 71-72, is a 9-0 decision back in 1997 by the U.S. Supreme Court.  They agreed to take up the issue of federal election law vs Louisiana’s election for federal offices and state election dates.  The case that started it:  MURPHY J. FOSTER, Jr., GOVERNOR OF LOUISIANA, et al., PETITIONERS v. G. SCOTT LOVE, PAUL S. BERGERON, KATHLEEN B. BALHOFF, and BENNIE BAKER-BOURGEOIS.

It’s rare SCOTUS has a 9-0 decision and this one surprised me considering the late Ruth Bader Ginsberg was on the bench back then.  You can read the transcript of the oral arguments in Foster v Love here.

Quoting Ginsberg:  “It is an election, and it seems to me, being an election it conflicts with the Federal single Election Day.” It’s unfortunate this was not the key argument in Trump’s lawsuits although several of us tried to get him this information.

Constitutional attorney, Ren Jander’s November 18, 2020, piece Elections Undecided by Midnight are Void & Preempted by Federal Law – Foster v Love (1997; 9-0 Decision) is a thorough examination of that case and federal statutes.  Jander wrote, “Federal Election Day statutes were designed to curtail fraud, and to infuse a prima facie sense of integrity in our electoral process.  But these States – in failing to obey Congressional deadlines – have flagrantly attempted to preempt federal law.  This is certainly prohibited, and this is why the late election results are void.”

After a comprehensive analysis of the Constitution, federal and state statutes, Jander further writes:  “Consider all of the above in light of the results of the 2020 presidential elections; in Pennsylvania today, two weeks after Election Day, 8000 votes suddenly appeared, and the initial count is still not complete; Arizona has tens of thousands of ballots left to count in the initial canvass;  Georgia discovered over 2,600 missing votes yesterday, and the entire State is conducting a recount; Wisconsin just announced the details and costs of a forthcoming recount; Michigan is buried in litigation supported by many sworn affidavits alleging irregularities.  None of these states consummated their elections on November 3rd. The elections have failed, as a matter of law.  The results should be voided.

“Reading Foster v. Love, together with the 9th Circuit’s analysis in Voting Integrity Project v. Keisling, we know that consummating an election before federal Election Day is prohibited, and that early voting is not prohibited, as long as the election is finally consummated on Election Day.  If that be the case, then statutory construction makes it obvious that elections consummated after Election Day are preempted by the federal Election Day statutes.

“Any other construction would render the statutes inoperable.  If “the election” – which is defined in Foster v. Love – as the combined acts of voters and officials – begins before Election Day, then continues after Election Day, there is no real Election Day.  The statute would be utterly inefficient, and the plenary authority of Congress over the time to choose electors would be denied.  There is no possible construction of the statute which would allow State elections for presidential electors to continue after Election Day.”

Many thousands of votes were “discovered” days after the November 2020 election and still more in the last two months.  Counting of votes in key swing states extended well beyond Election Day when counting of the ballots had to stop at midnight ON Election Day.

On Nov. 5, 2020, Fox News reported, “The Postal Service failed to deliver 150,000 completed ballots to polling stations before Election Day, the Washington Post reported, including 12,000 in five of the states where the U.S. still eagerly awaits a final count.”  Pennsylvania decided they would accept more ballot counting three days after Election Day as if the Foster v. Love Supreme Court decision didn’t exist.  Courts in Pennsylvania and other swing states loaded with partisan judges simply ignored federal election law – as did other states of the Union. 

And so here we are today with Trump spending more than $10 million dollars on legal fees and trying to stay out of prison.  It’s unfortunate this was not the key argument in Trump’s lawsuits although I tried my best to get him this information.

After reading Jander’s analysis above, I spent a considerable amount of time looking up the case.  SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES – FOSTER, GOVERNOR OF LOUISIANA, et al. v. LOVE et al. – CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUITNo. 96—670. Argued October 6, 1997–Decided December 2, 1997.

Foster v. Love, 522 U.S. 67 (1997): 9-0 decision

Foster v Love, Oral Arguments in front of the U.S. Supreme Court.  Print & Audio.

I saved part of Leo Donofrio’s analysis about federal elections ending ON election day on his now shuttered web site.  Leo is a very smart attorney.  Here’s an excerpt:

Foster v Love Oral Argument, Oct. 6, 1997 – “If the state Legislatures would just sit down for an hour and listen to the oral argument in Foster v. Love, they would have such an easy time understanding their plenary authority was triggered at midnight after Nov. 3rd. (You may listen to the audio here.). Let’s examine some of the transcript:

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg:

It is an election, and it seems to me, being an election it conflicts with the Federal single Election Day.”

“You can’t canvass for days/weeks on end. As Justice Ginsburg said, it’s “the Federal single Election Day.” And the unanimous opinion in this case was consistent with the oral argument, holding that “the election” must be consummated on “the day”.

“Justice Souter then had this heated (listen to it) exchange with the Louisiana Attorney General, who was knocked out cold at oral argument, and then lost in a 9-0 decision. That’s going to be the outcome now as well if the state Legislatures would stop being bullied by their governors, secretaries, and attorneys general, and start fighting to end the usurpation of their elector choosing plenary authority.”

After doing all the research I sent a copy of Jander’s column plus the oral arguments to Trump overnight express mail.  Twice at $29.98 each; one package to Trump Tower office and one package to Mar-A-Lago.  I sent a copy again overnight mail to his attorney, Jesse Binnall at his office in Virginia.  Binnall did an admirable job arguing the fraud case in Nevada where thousands of individuals who no longer lived in Nevada but voted from out of state along with other fraud.  The partisan, elected judge ruled the fraud committed was okay.

I explained that instead of all these lawsuits, go straight to the Supreme Court for an emergency hearing using THEIR OWN DECISION IN TRUMP’S FAVOR.  GA, PA, MI, MN, NV, AZ – ALL VIOLATED FEDERAL ELECTION LAW.  And it wasn’t just about Trump as I have written in the past:  All those federal offices, U.S. House & Senate – all candidates were also cheated because ballots were counted AFTER midnight.  Federal elections are decided ON election day, not date of certification.  This also has a profound effect on electors which Jander goes into in his analysis above and those individuals who’ve currently been charged as ‘fake electors’.

Response from Trump and Binnall:  ZERO.  Did they ever see my correspondence and documents?  Who knows since I’m a nobody.  So, it’s going to be up to State GOP Chairmen or Chairwoman and We the People to make sure Trump knows the clear path to stop the election from being stolen, again.

No questions the Democrat/Communist Party USA is DESPERATE because their obscene efforts to keep Trump off the ballot (and hopefully thrown into jail) isn’t working.  Their presumptive nominee, a life time crook with Altzheimer’s and now facing a possible impeachment, Joe Biden, is a stinking turd.  My question:  What is team Trump going to do this time to keep from having the election stolen from him again?  If they do the same thing as last time with a dozen or two lawsuits, it will be another disaster.

Several of the swing states passed new “integrity” election laws.  That’s good.  BUT, the silver bullet is making absolutely certain every GOP State Chairman or Chairwoman, Secretary of State and county clerk in this Union is made aware federal elections end at midnight ON election day, period.  No ballots counted after midnight.  I’ve already explained all this to our county clerk and I will make sure I’m there election night during counting.  Machines are used but that’s easily overcome.  Your state GOP Chairman/chairwoman can put out a notice to every county clerk in the state; easily done with a computer.

Next will be a meeting with our Judge who oversees the Commissioner’s Court and all county business – including elections.  Today my letter goes out to our new Secretary of State and our state GOP Chairman, Matt Rinaldi, one of the good guys.  SNAIL MAIL LETTERS WITH DOCUMENTATION can’t be ignored like email.  They MUST all be made aware of that Supreme Court decision so we don’t have yet another circus of endless lawsuits and indictments when Trump wins.

What can you do?  The same thing I just described above.  Yes, it takes some time, but we’re either going to have a fair 2024 election or just rip up the U.S. Constitution.  State GOP conventions will be here before you know it.  Ours (TX) is May 23-25 in San Antonio.  I can be a delegate; hopefully I’ll be fully recovered from the horribly painful spine fusion surgery I recently had to be able to attend.

Become a delegate in your state.  Call your local GOP county committee (you can get the right person and phone number from your county clerk) to find out how they choose (it’s usually volunteers) delegates.  Put together a concise flyer, order 500 and hand them out at your state GOP convention.  That will inform Republican delegates who will spread the word to voters in every state of the Union the decision by the Supreme Court that federal elections end at midnight ON election day.  It doesn’t matter if some partisan judge in Pennsylvania rules it’s okay to count mail in ballots for a week or two.  Federal law trumps.

Only you and I can stop another steal.  The most important thing is to get this information out to all of the above.  And don’t forget this about the 2024 election besides voting for president, house reps and senators:  the U.S. Supreme Court.  Clarence Thomas is 74.  Alito is 72.  They might wish to retire.  With Mitt Romney retiring, it’s critical Republicans take control of the senate.

For those who send me emails saying why vote, I say you damn well better get out and vote.  Get off the couch and do your part in making sure Secretary of State’s, county clerks and Republicans throughout the states understand what I’ve covered in this column.

In Remembrance of My Dear Louie

By: Amil Imani

December 26, 2023

It is Christmas again, a time to rejoice, but I find myself grappling with a pain from last year that runs deep within my heart. On a quiet morning like today, one year ago, my heart was shattered as I held my dearest Louie for the last time. I cradled Louie in my arms as he ventured into the great beyond. It is with a mix of sorrow and gratitude that I share these words – not seeking condolences, but simply wanting to celebrate the beautiful soul that meant the world to me – a tribute to the extraordinary spirit that was Louie.

This ache in my heart has not dulled with time; on the other hand, it has allowed me to reflect on Louie’s warmth and profound impact on my life. He was more than a pet; he was my confidant, source of joy, and steady companion through all the highs and lows of life. In every wag of his tail and every gentle nuzzle, I found a friend who understood me in a way words never could.

I remember our unique bond as I travel across the memories we created together. Louie wasn’t just a dog; he was family. His loyalty was a constant, his presence a balm for my soul. I could feel his spirit forever etched in every part of my being in the quiet moments. I find solace in knowing that time hasn’t dimmed the vivid colors of our journey.

The pain of losing a pet is because of the depth of love we share with them. Louie left an indelible mark on my heart with his expressive eyes and boundless affection. While the ache of his absence lingers, so does the warmth of his memory.

To those who have experienced the loss of a beloved furry friend, I understand the heaviness in your heart. Our pets may be gone, but the love they gave us lives on in the memories we hold dear. It’s a flame that flickers in the corners of our hearts.

As I light a candle in honor of Louie’s memory, I invite you to join me in celebrating the joy, companionship, and unconditional love our pets bring into our lives. In these moments of reflection, let us remember Louie and all the cherished pets who have left paw prints on our hearts.

Rest in peace, dear Louie. Your memory isn’t a fading photograph but a living, breathing presence. Your memory will forever be a beacon of love, guiding me over time. I will always love you.

Bonhoeffer’s Theory of Stupidity

By Lewis Brackett

December 26, 2023

… Reminds me of today’s mindless following of the silly stupid mantras of “Global Warming” … “Climate Change” … along with the thought that we just plain must kill all the cows because they produce the world-ending menace of Cow fart methane.

Some days I think that Stupidity is a greater World-ending menace than Satan’s legions.

Quotes from the October 19, 2021 article By Jonas Koblin

Dietrich Bonhoeffer argued that stupid people are more dangerous than evil ones. This is because while we can protest against or fight evil people, against stupid ones we are defenseless — reasons fall on deaf ears. Bonhoeffer’s famous text, which we slightly edited for this video, serves any free society as a warning of what can happen when certain people gain too much power.

BONHOEFFER’S LETTERS FROM PRISON

In his famous letters from prison, Bonhoeffer argued that stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice, because while “one may protest against evil; it can be exposed and prevented by the use of force, against stupidity we are defenseless. Neither protests nor the use of force accomplish anything here. Reasons fall on deaf ears.”

Facts that contradict a stupid person’s prejudgment simply need not be believed and when they are irrefutable, they are just pushed aside as inconsequential, as incidental. In all this, the stupid person is self-satisfied and, being easily irritated, becomes dangerous by going on the attack.

The Mad Director

By Late Roy Masters

December 25, 2023

You cannot overcome your environmental subjectivity, from which your fears and inferiorities rise, until you let yourself realize the root cause: making THINGS too important in order to feed your ego a sense of security and importance.

It is easy to recognize when your attitude is favorable toward God, because when the yearning for Truth is paramount, goals and things are naturally less important. And at this point all your manipulators lose their power which you have given them.

For this reason it is written in the Scriptures, “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and all else will be added to you.” And in another place it says concerning gain: “Where your treasure is, there your heart is also.”

(When your mind is on money, you can have a shock around your heart when you lose your wallet.) And in yet another place we read, “What does it profit a man that he gain the world and lose his soul (to the world)?”

To gratify yourself with any material thing, no matter how small, transfers the rapport (relationship) of your ego—your mind and your body—to the object of desire. It is this separation of your ego from your God center which causes guilt.

And the stubborn belief in what promises to deliver becomes the enslavement to what lies. The loss of the person or object reveals that enslavement, and you experience the familiar shock, guilt, anxiety and fear that spring from that loss. (This is the threat reaction syndrome from a non-threatening or non-existent danger.)

I can still recall the discomfort from buying a small gadget that fascinated me and that new car I thought I needed. The anxiety I felt was very well-founded.

So please be careful of your buying sprees. Be conscious that any time you buy ANYTHING, no matter how cheap and insignificant—even one single penny’s worth, if you buy it for luxury or for amusement, to give your ego a lift, you will notice first the tug of war with your conscience, then the excitement that hypnotically separates you from Reality and binds you to the thing.

“The stupid ego has, in a sense, a portable environment. It becomes the mad director of scenes and players for its private pleasure and glory. “

If you are a sensitive person, you can sense the meaning of the moment, and the effect of that awareness will be discipline. And you will walk away triumphant, feeling freer for each denial of lusts of the beastly ego self.

But in your lack of wisdom you will feel the aftermath of a growing anxiety. Anxiety also comes in the form of monthly payments and in great waves of boredom and futility as the novelty and newness wears off.

But here you can luxuriate again through recall, or by secretly resenting your spouse, the salesmen, or the object, as though it had cheated you. After all, it did appeal to you, and it did promise your ego a measure of happiness and satisfaction.

But it lied and cheated; it hurt more than it helped; it enslaved as it promised to set free. Your resentment and blame evoke and involve you with memories which so neatly keep you from seeing your fault.

Every sin experience leaves an impression in your head that is kept alive, recalled and reused later when you have nothing external to entertain or upset you.

A faulty attitude, then, is the secret cause behind most emotional states. Attitude does not actually cause the emotional response; it simply allows a transference of allegiance from Reason to environment.

And so each trauma fixes memories in your mind which are manipulated by your ego as a means of generating excitement for work or escape.

The stupid ego has, in a sense, a portable environment. It becomes the mad director of scenes and players for its private pleasure and glory.

People literally photograph your body and soul and pull you inside themselves. You become the plaything of a mad god in his private universe.

Give ‘Em The “Dickens”

By Tom DeWeese

December 25, 2023

Now that the trial is over the truth can finally be told. Bob Cratchit and Scrooge’s partner, Jacob Marley, conspired to steal the business holdings of Ebenezer Scrooge. Also involved in the diabolical plot were Scrooge’s housekeeper, Mrs. Henderson, and Bob Cratchit’s wife.

In the end, they were caught, of course, but not before it looked as though they were completely successful, and not until many years later. Their demise came when young Tiny Tim grew to maturity and learned the whole truth.

Cratchit had forced Tim to live his life, pretending to be crippled, in order to gain the townspeople’s sympathy and their support in his plan to discredit Scrooge. Having learned all of this, Tim turned his father and co-conspirators over to the authorities. During the trial all the sordid details were disclosed. Their scheme was to cause Scrooge to suffer a complete mental breakdown. Like the team from Mission Impossible, Marley and Cratchit carefully plotted their moves.

They began with the fake death of Scrooge’s partner, Marley. No longer encumbered with the day-to-day chore of working with Scrooge, Marley moved behind the scenes, recruiting those he needed to carry out the plan. He started false rumors about Scrooge’s character, creating an image that showed him to be harsh, cruel, and one to be scorned. Marley even intercepted checks Scrooge had written to various charity organizations.

Meanwhile, Bob Cratchit worked to reinforce Marley’s actions by saying that Scrooge was a harsh taskmaster. Using the excuse of his supposedly crippled child, Cratchit played on the sympathy of the townspeople and turned them against Scrooge.

All of this began to take a toll on Scrooge’s business. He became worried and despondent, finding it difficult to understand why the community refused to deal with him. As money grew short Scrooge was forced to cut back on office personnel. Marley, of course, used this opportunity to spread false rumors that Scrooge simply wanted all the money for himself. Cratchit was now the only worker left in Scrooge’s employ. He then seized that opportunity to ask for a raise, knowing full well what the results of the request would be. When Scrooge refused the raise, Cratchit told the townspeople he needed the money for Tiny Tim’s medical bills.

Finally, Marley and Cratchit knew the time was at hand to complete their plan. Sinister as they were, the two chose the Christmas season for the background to their final play. On the morning of December 24th, while Scrooge was at the office, Marley visited his housekeeper, Mrs. Henderson, and gave her a small vial. It contained a white powdery substance. He paid her one hundred dollars and handed her an envelope containing instructions on how and when to use the contents.

Later that afternoon, Cratchit informed Scrooge that he wanted to leave early to join his family for Christmas Eve. Scrooge was expecting a very important shipment of special-order goods, but he had to attend a business meeting. He then asked Cratchit to please stay, at least until it was delivered. In fact, Cratchit was not planning to go home at all, rather he was to meet Marley to finalize plans for that night. He waited for Scrooge to leave for his meeting and then promptly closed the office and left.

That night, as Scrooge prepared for bed, Mrs. Henderson brought him hot milk. Upon drinking it the entire room seemed to grow dark and misty as if in a dream. Moments later, Marley, whom Scrooge believed to be dead, appeared before him. The effect was devastating.

Throughout the night, Marley and Cratchit, using special effects and psychological torment, systematically tortured their victim, now in a weak mental state. They spun his bed; they led him into the cold night dressed only in a nightshirt and cap; and Marley continually changed costumes, pretending to be several different characters, each accusing Scrooge of various crimes.

Consider the testimony of Constable O’Malley, who told of seeing three men on Baker Street at approximately 4:00am, December 25th. One, dressed only in a nightshirt and cap, was babbling incoherently, and was understood to cry out, “No more, Sir, please, I don’t want to see anymore.” One of the men with him was tall and wore a hooded robe. He did not speak. As the Constable approached them, a third man, who had been following about as half a block behind, quickly rushed forward and nervously told the Constable that all was well, “My grandfather has just had a little too much Christmas ‘spirit’ and we’re just taking him home.” According to Constable O’Mally, the spokesman matched the description of Bob Cratchit.

The traumatic night, of course, took its toll on Scrooge. He suffered the planned mental breakdown and was reduced to a babbling idiot who, every day, walked through London’s market exchange, shouting Christmas greetings to all and handed out plucked turkeys to the vendors. Finally, Bob Cratchit managed to have Scrooge committed to a mental hospital and Cratchit himself was appointed guardian of his estate. Authorities found Scrooge on a July afternoon, wandering through the exchange, shouting his Christmas greetings. They loaded him into a wagon and took him to the Home for the Euphorically Deluded.

Years later, as reported, Tiny Tim learned the truth behind the whole story and reported it to the authorities. It was too late for Scrooge, who died in the Home, a broken man. Jacob Marley too had died, never able to enjoy his ill-gotten gain. He also had suffered a breakdown brought on by an identity crisis. Bob Cratchit, his wife, and Mrs. Henderson did stand trial and were found guilty. They were sentenced to work in a sweatshop run by the government.

Tiny Tim was granted control of Scrooge’s estate. He invested the money in a toy company and soon built a vast financial empire by hiring a marketing firm. Together they were able to turn Christmas into a huge commercial buying season for toys. Tiny Tim hung a huge sign over is factory so that all could see. There, written in gold letters, was the name of his corporation, “HUMBUG ENTERPRISES.”

A Christmas Gift: You Can Do That

By Frosty Wooldridge

December 25, 2023

Have you ever faced a situation that caused you to question yourself?  Did you confront a teacher that you disliked or a fellow student who badgered you?  Have you dwelt with co-workers that made you tear your hair out?

(Standing between two redwoods along the California coast that have been saying, “I can grow for 2,500 years and keep growing.”) Photography by Frosty Wooldridge and ten second delay tripod.

Welcome to the human race!

When I grew up, my father gifted me with one of the most profound statements in my young life.  I faced a science project at school that felt impossible, beyond my skills and over my head.

I grumbled, whined and complained.

“Dad, that science project feels like I have to fly to the moon with Tinkerbell’s wings,” I said.  “It’s killing me.”

He said, “Son, I learned one thing on my winding road through this life: some people sit and watch while others take action, and take the lead.  Most give applause, and cheer those who take the lead.  A few people take the lead.”

“Okay,” I said.  “Where does that leave me?”

“You can complain about your situation,” he said,  “but that doesn’t get you anywhere.  You can make a lot of excuses, but that sets up failure.  You can decide to take action. That will get you to your destination.”

“Yeah, but dad,” I said.  “I can’t….”

“Son, this may be the most important advice I’ve ever shared with you,” my dad said.  “There are two kinds of people in this world. The ones that say, ‘I can’t’ and the ones that say, ‘I can’.  You get to decide.  Once you make a decision, it will follow you the rest of your life. It will dominate your life-journey. It will give you a rich life or an average life.  Do you understand?”

“Yes sir,” I said.

“Whenever you face a problem, task, challenge, test or anything that confronts you in life,” he said,  “I want you to remember these words:  ‘I can do that.’”

“Yes sir,” I said.

“Okay, repeat after me,” he said. “I can do that.”

I repeated, “I can do that.”

From that point to this day, I know in my heart, in my mind and in my spirit that, “I can do that.”

Ironically, in the 10th grade, I took world history from a wonderful teacher, Mrs. Barbara Rainwater.  Halfway through the semester, we studied China.  I saw a picture in the history book of the Great Wall of China.

“Someday,” I said,  “I’m going to walk on the Great Wall of China.”

Mrs. Rainwater gruffed, “You can’t walk on the Great Wall. It’s closed to all foreigners.  You will never walk on the Great Wall of China.”

“My dad said things always change in the world,” I said. “I will be ready when China opens to the world.”

Years after I graduated from high school and after my college career was completed, China opened its gates to the world in 1984.  I bought a one-way ticket around the world on an airplane.  I bicycled through Europe. I backpacked into the Swiss Alps. I walked through the Vatican.  I stood on the steps of the Parthenon in Athens, Greece.  I landed in Hong Kong. I pedaled, trained, hiked and worked my way to Beijing. From there, I pedaled my way north to the Ming Dynasty tombs.

Never in my life could I have imagined “The Summer Palace”; “Forbidden City”; “Ming Dynasty Tombs”; and “The Streets of Beijing”. I snapped hundreds of pictures.

But my one goal remained: walk on the Great Wall of China.  Several days later, I labored up some hills and pushed myself to the limit. Finally, I stood at the steps of the Great Wall of China.  A bunch of kids raced toward me to sell me a “Great Wall of China” T-shirt. I bought it for a few bucks.  Within minutes, I climbed the steps and walked along the Great Wall of China. It’s nearly 4,000 miles long. It’s huge. It’s thousands of years old.  Millions of Chinamen died building it to keep out the northern invaders.

I set up the tripod to take a picture. To this day, my proudest moment remains the day that I walked on the Great Wall of China.  Not only that, my “Adventure Wall” shows me bicycling in Antarctica, Australia, South America, Europe and all of Asia.  I also bicycled 15 times across America.  I scuba dived in all the oceans of the world.  It’s been a glorious lifetime of adventures.

Why and how did I do all of that?

My dad said, “You can do that.”

So, make my dad your dad. Repeat after him, “I can do that.”

You bet your life you can!  Merry Christmas from our house to your house.

A Politician Wins on the Pro-Life Issue

By Cliff Kincaid

December 24, 2023

At a time when Christians celebrate the birth of Christ, the baby in the manger, a new survey finds that 24 percent of Democrats would base their vote on abortion. That is, pro-abortion. Only 14 percent of Republicans would vote pro-life. That means pro-abortion is winning. Except in Argentina.

“Philosophically speaking, I am in favor of the right to life,” declares the new Argentinian President Javier Milei. “Beyond that, there is a scientific justification to be had. It’s the fact that life begins at conception, it’s at that very instant that a new being begins to evolve with its own unique DNA,” Milei said. “Beyond that, there is a matter of mathematics,” he explained. “Life is a continuum with two quantum leaps: birth and death. Any interruption in the interim is murder.”

Plain-speaking of the kind practiced by Javier Milei or even House Speaker Mike Johnson is needed. Johnson was honest enough to have written an op-ed in 2005 referring to abortion as “a holocaust.” Democrats object to such language. But how else is an objective observer supposed to describe the murder of tens of millions of unborn innocent babies?

Johnson comments, “The Left openly celebrates the extinguishing of innocent and beautiful life through the evil of abortion.”

If the issue is framed in terms of science, morality, and the war on the unborn, Republicans have a chance to win the argument.

Better yet, show them the pictures.

One heroic Democrat, Terrisa Bukovinac, is running for president to stop “abortion extremism” in the Democratic Party and to show “the victims of abortion to the American people…” Her campaign is running 30-second TV ads showing in gruesome detail the remains of five babies killed by late-term abortion. Bukovinac says she captured the footage when she recovered the remains last year outside an abortion business in Washington D.C.

“These are the faces of a genocide,” she says.

We hear the term “genocide” a lot these days, regarding the Middle East. The so-called Palestinians are not facing a genocide. They are part of the Arab/Muslim world, with a population of more than 1.8 billion. The Jews, on the other hand, faced extinction before and are under attack again.

However, the unborn are also current targets and have been for decades.

Abortion is a central element of a population control strategy once employed by Hitler, to eliminate people considered weak and inferior. Mimicking Nazi Germany’s “race purification” program, Margaret Sanger of Planned Parenthood had openly endorsed the euthanasia, sterilization, abortion, and infanticide programs of the early Reich. Such an approach ultimately resulted in the Holocaust.

Today, however, the abortion holocaust is packaged in terms of “women’s rights,” giving women the “right” to destroy their own offspring and call it “progress.”

The year 2020 marked the 100th anniversary of the first government authorizing abortion, the Russian communist regime, and more than 1 billion babies have been sacrificed in one century. In America, abortion has claimed more than 63 million lives in America since Roe v. Wade, since overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.

For some feminists, it has become a sacrament, a form of child sacrifice common during the pagan era of Moloch worship.

To sacrifice your children at home, the FDA approved abortion drugs on an illegal and expedited basis even though they are associated with the deaths of not only the unborn babies but the pregnant women, as well as hospitalizations, blood transfusions, and cases of infection that jeopardize the lives of women and their children.

Matthew Kacsmaryk, a U.S. District Court Judge, has cited substantial evidence that the FDA’s approval of chemical abortion drugs was illegal and that the drugs themselves are dangerous to women and children. He noted that the FDA ignored a petition challenging approval of the drugs for over 16 years, even though the law requires an agency response within “180 days of receipt of the petition.” He explains, “Had FDA responded to Plaintiffs’ petitions within the 360 total days allotted, this case would have been in federal court decades earlier. Instead, FDA postponed and procrastinated for nearly 6,000 days.”

In providing the facts about the destruction of human life, the judge wrote in clear and direct language that the drugs result in the killing of a human baby and the extinction of a human life. There is simply no dispute over this.

He wrote, “Mifepristone —  also known as RU-486 or Mifeprex —  is a synthetic steroid that blocks the hormone progesterone, halts nutrition, and ultimately starves the unborn human until death. Because mifepristone alone will not always complete the abortion, FDA mandates a two-step drug regimen: mifepristone to kill the unborn human, followed by misoprostol to induce cramping and contractions to expel the unborn human from the mother’s womb.”

The Supreme Court has taken up this case for review.

Ex-communist Whittaker Chambers said it was through recognizing the humanity of a child, a “fetus” in today’s jargon, that the influence of communism on his thinking and life was gradually eroded. While Chambers would prevail over Alger Hiss, communism would continue its advance, here and abroad.

Chambers didn’t have access to a sonogram of his wife’s unborn child. He didn’t know about unborn children feeling pain. But it just made common sense to conclude that the unborn child was a human being. This awareness and human emotion began the process of unraveling the communist philosophy of atheistic materialism.

The “Christmas Thing”

By Kelleigh Nelson

December 22, 2023

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. —John 3:16 KJV

For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.  —Isaiah 9:6, KJV, Handel’s Messiah

It’s Christmas, with all the joy and frenzy and shopping, and food, and family gathering, and it’s the Celebration of our Saviour’s birth.  Can you say Hallelujah!  I love Christmas…I simply love it!

Christmas Cookies

Most folks know, I own a wholesale commercial bakery and I’m very busy this time of year.  In September I start baking Christmas cookies to be shipped all over the country the Monday after Thanksgiving.  It is the part of my business that I enjoy the most.  I love creating the cookies, buying the boxes, ribbons, and ornaments for packing, and sending them to all the folks that look forward to them every year.

It’s a labor of love, and I enjoy this part of the Christmas preparations the most.  That might sound crazy to some of you, but my great-great grandfather was a restaurateur, confectioner, and amazing baker in Philadelphia, PA.  He also owned an ice cream shop along with his three restaurants.  G. Byron Morse actually developed the pinafore bread that became the Hoagie bun.  So, the baking gene runs in my blood.  This, however, is not what Christmas is all about…yet, it too is a part of the joyous celebration and the joy of giving.

Christmas Cards

Christmas cards are special for me.  Every year, the local Christian bookstore runs a 60% off sale on Christmas cards the day after Christmas.  Since I’ve lived all over the country, we send out over 100 cards every year, and we want them to express the truth of why we celebrate the birth of Messiah.  So, I’m there at 7 a.m. the morning after Christmas.

My sweet friends in Florida sent us a beautiful Christmas card this year that I want to share with you.  Like the cards I choose, this one relays the essence of Christmas…it was the Christ child, born for us, to die on a cross for our sins, so we could approach the throne of God with the blood of Jesus having washed away our sins, gone, not just covered over, but gone.  This card was so lovely in its message, I simply had to share it.  So here it is:

JUST A LITTLE DONKEY

Just a little donkey, but on my back,  I bore, The one and only Savior, the world was waiting for.

Just a little donkey, but I was strong and proud–I gladly carried Mary through the chaos of the crowd.

I brought her to a stable where she made a tiny bed…A place for Baby Jesus to lay His little head.

I pray the world remembers that special Christmas night, when just a little donkey carried Heaven’s Precious Light.   Rita S. Beer

I hope the sentiment in this card touches your heart as it touched mine. It is the story of the King of Glory who humbled Himself to come to earth as a baby, to die on the Cross for all of us.  The cards are special greetings to those we know and love who are brothers and sisters in the faith, and they are a part of Christmas, but not the full essence, just a part of the whole celebration of the King’s birth.

Decorations

There are not many places in America bereft of Christmas decorations, except perhaps Dearborn, Michigan. Many of the yards and windows of homes are adorned with lights and wreaths put up around Thanksgiving.  Holley Gerth wrote about the wonderful Christmas Wreath:

“The Christmas wreath is more than just a decoration…it’s a special reminder of Jesus, the reason for our celebration.  The circle of a Christmas wreath is a never-ending ring, a reminder of eternal love from our Lord and King.  The Christmas wreath is a sign of welcome, inviting all to enter in… a reminder of Christ’s invitation for all to come to Him.  The middle of a Christmas wreath is a bare and empty space, a reminder of what life would be without Christ’s love and grace.  So, each time you see a Christmas wreath hanging from a door, may your heart rejoice in the One that Christmas is truly for!”

When I was a child, my mother and I would get on the train and go into Chicago to see the decorated store windows on State Street; Marshall Fields, Wieboldts, Carson, Pirie, Scott and Company, Goldblatts, and so many more.  In the 1950s, there were amazing crèche displays in the store windows…and of course Santa and the reindeer.  The crowds were enormous.  Decorations were everywhere.

When I see all the homes alight with decorations, I think of them as candles on the Saviour’s birthday cake.  This is another part of the celebration of Messiah’s birth, and it speaks to believers and non-believers…”We have lighted up our homes to celebrate the birth of the Saviour of the World.” 

Shopping

Then there’s the shopping.  Since I have owned my bakery for 23 years, my shopping has to be finished before Thanksgiving and ready to ship to out-of-town family the Monday after Thanksgiving.  I really don’t like to shop during December, especially on the weekends, and I don’t do Black Fridays…not ever.

Having said that, the joy of the celebration is in the majority of stores.  The time goes quickly for employees when it’s busy and they all seem to be smiling and happy and saying, Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas.  Of course, I prefer Merry Christmas, but Happy Holidays is from the original, Happy Holy Days. So, when I’m wished “Happy Holidays,” I always answer them with, “Merry Christmas to you and Happy Holy Days!”

This is the south and we’re in the buckle of the Bible Belt, so everyone smiles!  Shopping is the part of Christmas where we buy gifts to give to our family, friends, and those less fortunate, to share the love of the Christ child whose birth we celebrate.

One of my wonderful Christian cyber buds sent me a short email of vast import.  When you’re out doing the hectic last-minute shopping thing, remember this story,

“Who Started This Christmas Stuff?”

A woman was out Christmas shopping with her two children. After many hours of looking at row after row of toys and everything else imaginable; and after hours of hearing both her children asking for everything they saw on those many shelves, she finally made it to the elevator with her two kids.

She was feeling what so many feel during the holiday season time of the year – overwhelming pressure to go to every party, every housewarming, taste all the holiday food and treats, getting that perfect gift for every single person on our shopping list, making sure we don’t forget anyone on our card list, and the pressure of making sure we respond to everyone who sent us a card.

Finally the elevator doors opened, and there was already a crowd in the car. She pushed her way into the car and dragged her two kids in with her and all the bags of stuff. When the doors closed, she couldn’t take it anymore and she stated, “Whoever started this whole Christmas thing should be found, strung up and shot.”

From the back of the car, everyone heard a quiet, calm voice respond, “Don’t worry, we already crucified Him.”

For the rest of the trip down in the elevator, it was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. This year, don’t forget to keep “the One who started this whole Christmas thing” in your every thought, deed and words. If we all did it, just think of how different this whole world would be.

It’s not simply the baking and cooking, it’s not the cards, or the decorations, it’s not the shopping, or the family gatherings, it’s all of these things!  It’s because this is the month of the birthday celebration of the King of Glory, the Messiah.

Ahh, yes, the “Christmas thing.”  The “Christmas thing” is Christ.  The “Christmas thing” is the Saviour of the world, the “Christmas thing” is that He came and died for all of us, the “Christmas thing” is the joy in knowing that we have everlasting life because the perfect, sinless, creator of the world shed His blood for us, the “Christmas thing” is that God loves us so much that He sent His only begotten Son to die for us.  The “Christmas thing” is that we are to celebrate His birth with joy, love, peace, kindness and gentleness.  And we’re to share our reason for that joy!

So, for the month of December…you might want to answer those who say Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas with a resounding, “Happy Birthday Jesus!”   That’s the “Christmas thing!”

Bearing One Another’s Burdens

By Rob Pue

December 24, 2023

It’s been a very tough year for a lot of people.  We’ve had to watch our nation and the world continue to become more violent, more perverse, and more cruel.  We’ve had to endure rising costs of everything, the invasion of our nation by foreign enemies, homelessness, drug abuse, our major cities destroyed from within and lawlessness everywhere we turn, as our government leaders turn one blind eye to the persecution of the innocent, while turning the other blind eye to those who are obviously guilty of the highest of crimes.

Meanwhile, the Globalists, the Satanists, and the Communists continue their march toward their make-believe “Green Utopia,” in which only the rulers are free, while everyone else is tracked, monitored, silenced and enslaved.

Artificial Intelligence has made major inroads this past year, though real intelligence, real wisdom, has eluded us.  We have SMART phones and SMART homes…now they want to mandate SMART cars, equipped with “kill switches,” so your vehicle can be shut down at the whims of our taskmasters.  The Globalists even burned the once-beautiful, historic town of Lahaina, on the island of Maui into ashes this year, to make way for their experimental new “SMART city.”

And although we haven’t heard a whole lot about a new, one-world digital currency in the last few months, don’t think they’ve given up on the idea.  In fact, such a thing must become mandated in the future.  Control of the people — everything from monitoring and approving or disapproving of our purchases to our healthcare, our travel, and the amount of utilities we use — depends on the implementation of controlling everyone’s ability to buy or sell.  It’s ironic, isn’t it?  The people who put our nation $33 trillion dollars in debt are the same ones who want to issue US a “credit score.”

We also haven’t heard a lot about the war in Ukraine lately, though we continue to hear about the billions of dollars that we continue to send there.  And now we have Israel in a no-win situation. Their enemies hide among civilians, don’t wear military uniforms and use guerilla warfare, so when Israel strikes back, they’re seen as the aggressors, the war mongers.  No one will win in Ukraine, except the American politicians laundering obscene amounts of money there.  And the only winners in the middle east will be the military industrial complex.

No, friends, the news is almost never good.  It hasn’t been for a very long time.  The outlook for this nation and this world is grim and the constant negativity of the daily news wears on a person.  It’s especially hard for Christians, Conservatives and those who value truth and justice…patriots, constitutionalists, nationalists — and NO — “nationalism” is not a bad thing.  God Himself established the nations.  He destroyed Babylon.

On top of all this, we’re also now seeing the results of the mandated “clot shot” jabs, which are doing what they were designed to do all along — kill people.  There are too many studies to count, too much research to point to, proving the long list of deadly side effects Big Pharma knew about, but hoped to hide for 75 years.

I don’t read our local secular news very much.  Despite the fact that they call themselves “Fair and Independent,” and promote their publication as “more news, less fluff,” it’s mostly articles about sports, puff pieces paid for by local businesses and Left-wing articles they pull from NPR.  When they run a Letter to the Editor, it’s always, without fail, written by an extreme liberal, touting the latest thing from the LGBTQP+ movement, the importance of transgender-positive books in libraries and snowflake-affirming safe spaces in schools; not to mention the climate-change crazies who want to ban our gas stoves.

But I do make a point to read the obituaries.  Specifically, I’ve been keeping track of people who have “died suddenly” or “died unexpectedly.”  There’s usually at least one in every obituary list.  A couple of months ago, there were six who “died suddenly and unexpectedly” within a week, just in my small town alone.  Some in their 50s, 40s, 30s and even younger.  Not all obituaries list the person’s occupation, but of those that do, all of them would have been places that mandated the shots in 2021.

I also look at the birth records.  Sadly, there’s an obituary report just about every day, with a half-dozen or more people who have passed away.  Birth reports only pop up maybe once a week at the most, and the list usually only has one or two babies born.  Even more telling is the parents’ names.  Rarely do the mothers and fathers have the same last name, which tells me that most of the births we do have today, are to people who are not married.

What a strange world we live in.  Good is called “evil” and evil is called “good.”  It’s not surprising, because God’s Word told us it would be this way.  But it is disturbing to see so many who have chosen to believe the lies of the devil.

But this past year has been tough on people in other ways too.  From our newspaper readers, radio listeners and TV viewers, I hear from people all the time, many requesting prayer.  So many are dealing with such heavy burdens.  And those I hear from are God’s people — true Christians — who seem to be bearing much heavier burdens now than those who’ve given themselves over to false doctrines, fake churches and Satan himself.

There are those dealing with marriage problems.  Some have been struggling in unhappy marriages for years or decades; some enduring life with an unsaved or an unfaithful or abusive spouse.  There are strong, faithful Christ-followers who raised their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, but now their children want nothing to do with them; they’ve cut off all communication, they’re never allowed to see their own grandchildren.  There are no Mother’s Day or Father’s Day cards, phone calls or even texts.  No family gatherings at all, not even at Christmas.

Others are dealing with a spouse with serious health issues, some battling dementia or Alzheimer’s, so they’ve become full time care-givers in their retirement years.  One couple confided in me that they invested their life savings with a man who claimed to be a strong Christian, but was recently arrested for investment fraud and now their entire nest egg is just gone, overnight.

Other families are dealing with children who’ve “come out” this past year and announced they’re homosexual or “transgender,” as the brainwashing finally got them now, too.  There are also families dealing with the loss of children who’ve gone insane or committed suicide, in this “new normal” world of obscenity, perversion, lies and deception.

And then there are those who have passed away in their old age.  In this last year alone, at least twenty of our readers and faithful supporters have died, having run the race for the glory of God and finished well.  These were the saints of God who served Him daily throughout their lives and right up until the very end, and I know for sure they’ll all hear the words, “Well done, thy good and faithful servant.”  In some cases, both husband and wife have passed away, in others, just one of them.

I can’t imagine the loneliness of losing your mate after so many years together.  Even if you have a loving, supportive family and children who honor you and care for you; though, once again, there are many whose children have abandoned them, and don’t even acknowledge their parent’s passing, or attend the funeral, much less come alongside and tend to the needs of the surviving parent in their time of mourning.

I can’t imagine the pain, grief and sorrow, even though they know their spouse is in the loving care of Jesus, which brings them some level of peace and comfort.  There will always be an empty side of the bed, an empty chair at the table, and a loss that can never be replaced.

I mention these things because many of us are not dealing with such situations… but we need to remember that there are also those who are, because many now find themselves in uncharted territory — experiencing Christmastime, when it seems everyone’s joyous, with a spirit of love, giving and sharing like no other time of year.  But this year, many will be alone — perhaps for the first time in their lives.  James 1:27 tells us to, “…visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction.”  James also reminds us that “faith without works is dead.”

We need to not only remember those who are suffering loss, grieving a wayward child or a broken family, but we need to come alongside them and offer whatever amount of comfort we can.  Minister to those who are hurting.  Of course, there are no words we can offer that will truly ease the pain, but don’t let our fellow saints in Christ suffer alone.

All it takes is a visit, a gift, a little bit of your time and the loving heart of Jesus to make all the difference.  As Christians, we’re to bear one another’s burdens.  All who name the name of Christ and truly follow Him are at a point we’ve never been before.  We’re all bearing burdens that are really hard, truly difficult and often heart-wrenching.  Some are suffering loss and most are lonely.  The wickedness of this present darkness we’re living in is hard enough for any of us who value truth and justice.  But to bear such burdens, and at the same time be all alone, can be devastating.

Even faithful church-goers may not really have true, close relationships with anyone at their church.  In the past I found this especially true for the older folks.  There were the handshakes during the “greet your neighbor time,” and sometimes even a rare hug, but no real connection.  So don’t assume people are fine. Don’t assume someone else will come forward to comfort the lonely and those who mourn.  In most cases, no one will come. They don’t know what to say; they think it might be too awkward or out-of-place.

Bearing one another’s burdens and showing real love for the least of these is never out of place, and always the duty and obligation for those who want to follow Jesus.  But understand, we don’t do it to earn any gold stars for ourselves.  This is our reasonable service, and on the contrary, it’s shameful if we don’t.  But I think you’ll find, that as you reach out and minister to those who are in need — financially, emotionally, spiritually or in any other way —  as you serve and minister to them, your own heart will be ministered to by our Lord as well.  Perhaps even more-so.

This world is a dark, often lonely place.  People need the Lord desperately, and I pray those who don’t yet know Him will find Him while there’s still time…but people also need one another, and as Christ’s own children, if we don’t minister to our own brothers and sisters and help lift the weight of the burdens they’re bearing off their shoulders, even just a little bit, even just for a time, then who is going to?

Seek out the elderly, the widows, the orphans, look for the couple on the verge of divorce, or the family who’s lost a child to the “trans” and “LGBTQP+” predators, or to drugs, or to insanity or suicide.  Break the awkward silence.  Hug them and let them cry on your shoulder.  Share a cup of tea and hold hands together and pray to our Father in heaven.  Bring comfort and joy.  Let those who are still standing strong come alongside and lift up those who’ve been suffering all alone — because one day it will be you who needs that same blessing.

The Most Precious Gift in the World Is for You, Too

by Rolaant McKenzie

December 24, 2023

William Sydney Porter (September 11, 1862 – June 5, 1910), best known by his pen name “O. Henry,” was an American writer of poetry and nonfiction. But his fame came primarily from his witty short stories, usually based on personal observations of human interactions, that often included surprise endings.

One of Porter’s best-known short stories was The Gift of the Magi (1905), a heartwarming tale of Jim and Della, a young married couple in a small apartment, short on money on Christmas Eve, seeking nonetheless to surprise each other with a special Christmas gift.

Della had beautiful long brown hair, something in which she took great pride and considered to be one of her most valued possessions. For Jim, it was a gold pocket watch inherited from his father, who inherited it from his father, attached to an old leather strap instead of an appropriate chain.

Della was grief-stricken when she discovered that she had only $1.87 (more than $65 today) to buy a present for Jim, a $21 dollar (more than $700 today) platinum fob chain for his watch. She decided to go to a nearby hairdresser to sell her hair, for which she received $20. Della then quickly returned to the store to buy the pocket watch chain.

When Jim came home from work that evening, Della admitted to him that she sold her hair to buy the chain for his watch. Jim gave Della her present, something he knew she had wanted from the department store for a long time: a set of beautiful ornamental combs. He told her that he sold his watch to purchase the combs.

While the gifts that Jim and Della gave each other could not be used until he could get a new watch and her hair grew back, the sacrifices they made for each other showed how precious their love truly was. The story ended with a comparison of these sacrificial gifts of love with the devotion of the Magi for the Lord Jesus, who traveled a great distance to bring precious gifts and to worship Him (Matthew 2:1-12).

Shepherds during the birth of Jesus were among the humblest of the people who lived around Bethlehem. Their work, not considered as valuable as that of other members of society, was hard, and their wages were low, made worse by the oppressive taxation of the Roman occupation. Yet, as shepherds kept watch over their flock at night, it was to them that God sent His angel to announce wonderful news (Luke 2:8-20):

“Today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

Then, with the angel, a multitude of angels appeared before the shepherds, praising God:

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased.”

God made it known to the shepherds, among the lowest-ranked people in their society, that He was pleased to bestow upon them His peace, and He valued them so much that He sent His most precious gift, His own Son Jesus, to be their Savior, too.

Filled with wonder and joy, the shepherds shared these glad tidings with their neighbors and all who would listen to them. They realized God’s love and acceptance through this newborn King, the Shepherd of Israel and of the world.

Pearls are considered valuable gems, but they come about through suffering. A pearl is made when a mollusk, such as a clam or an oyster, is afflicted with a foreign object that causes painful irritation. The mollusk sheds a substance called nacre over the object, layers of which form a pearl.

During Jesus’ earthly ministry, He taught many parables about the kingdom of heaven. One of them described a man who valued a pearl so much that he sold all he had to purchase it (Matthew 13:45-46). This is an illustration of the greatest sacrificial gift of love ever given. Jesus prized lost humanity so much that He gave all He had, His blood, to purchase people from every tribe, tongue, and nation (Revelation 5:9).

Revelation 21 describes the unsurpassed beauty and wonder of the New Jerusalem, the heavenly city of precious stones and gold, graciously given as a gift by God to all who believe in Him through Jesus Christ. The city includes twelve gates named after the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel. Each gate does not contain pearls. Each gate is a pearl (verse 21). This points to the affliction of Jesus, the King of Glory, shedding His blood on a foreign object, a Roman cross, and raising it up to be an object of exquisite beauty that provides entrance into the city for all who trust solely in His righteousness (Revelation 22:14).

Jesus’ Parable of the Pearl of Great Price and O. Henry’s The Gift of the Magi illustrate the power of sacrificial gifts of love. But the most precious sacrificial gift of love was when:

“God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

Jesus emptied Himself of His glory, came to earth in the form of a poor, lowly man, and died on the cross to pay the penalty for sinners (Philippians 2:5-11; 2 Corinthians 8:9). He was buried and rose again from the grave, granting eternal life in His kingdom to anyone who trusts in Him.

No matter your station in life, whether you are rich or poor, high class or low class, regardless of your ethnicity, nationality, or language, no matter your past history, the gift of forgiveness, reconciliation with God, and eternal life is for you, too, in Christ Jesus.

A Christmas Wish

By Paul Engel

December 23, 2023

  • As we celebrate Christmas, I wanted to share a few of my Christmas wishes for you, America, and the Constitution Study.
  • While most people would probably list peace on earth among their wishes, what about wishing for liberty?
  • What do you hope for in our future? What would you like to see in 2024?

Thankfully, I have not seen the level of controversy over name “Christmas” this year that I’ve seen in years past. Whether or not you celebrate the holiday, 5 USC §6103 lists December 25th as the holiday “Christmas Day”, which is why government offices are shut down today.

Since I do celebrate the holiday, I decided to take a few minutes and consider some Christmas wishes I have for you, this country, and The Constitution Study.

Peace on Earth

As the Christmas Carol I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day goes, I have the wish “Of peace on earth, good will to men!” Living in a fallen world, I know this is highly unlikely. However, it does not stop me from wishing for it. Since none of us have control over the entire world, how about we start with a little peace in our neighborhood? Again, that may be a pretty tall order and dependent upon your neighbors, but I can still wish that as much as it’s within our power, we live at peace with our family, friends, and neighbors. Of course, that would require all of us to grant to our neighbors the liberty to live their lives as they see fit, as long as they do not infringe on the rights of others. As Benjamin Franklin, writing under the pseudonym Silence Dogood wrote in 1722:

Without Freedom of Thought, there can be no such Thing as Wisdom; and no such Thing as public Liberty, without Freedom of Speech; which is the Right of every Man, as far as by it, he does not hurt or controul the Right of another: And this is the only Check it ought to suffer, and the only Bounds it ought to know.

Silence Dogood, No. 8 – Printed in The New-England Courant, July 9, 1722

Hope

I’ve received several emails and comments to the effect that it’s over, it’s time to turn out the lights, and to admit that the American experiment has failed. Fair enough; things are pretty ugly right now, and I must admit I don’t see things getting that much better in the near future. I generally have two replies to such statements.

First, how do you know it’s over? After all, none of us know the future, so how do you know things won’t get better? And really, what is the alternative? Simply bending over and shouting, “Thank you sir, may I have another!” while tyrants paddle your behind?

Second, I point out that everyone so far who has made such a statement seems to be focusing on Washington, D.C. Yet we can still have quite in impact within our families, neighbors, towns, and cities. Just because D.C. has become a tyrannical hell-hole, it doesn’t mean we have to live in one as well. When you throw some sound knowledge about the Constitution, our rights, and the limited powers of the federal government in the mix, there is more opportunity for hope than there is for despair.

Therefore, my wish for Christmas is that we do not give up on freedom and that we all stand against the the light of liberty dying.

Liberty

This season I wish that we can all live at liberty.

Freedom from restraint, in a general sense, and applicable to the body, or to the will or mind. The body is at liberty when not confined; the will or mind is at liberty when not checked or controlled. A man enjoys liberty when no physical force operates to restrain his actions or volitions.

Liberty – Webster’s 1828 Dictionary

The thing about living at liberty is that it’s a combination of how we choose to live and how we choose to treat others. As our first Chief Justice of the United States said:

By knowing their rights, they will sooner perceive when they are violated, and be the better prepared to defend and assert them.

John Jay, First Chief Justice of the United States

Living at liberty means not only knowing your rights, but being prepared to defend and assert them. Much of what we do here at the Constitution Study involves helping people do just that. Even if the world around you is living under tyranny, if you are prepared to defend and assert your rights, you are free and at liberty. Yes, they may incarcerate your body, but if you are prepared to defend and assert your rights, they can never incarcerate your mind.

Just as there’s a responsibility to defend and assert your rights, you have a duty to allow others to exercise theirs. Just because you disagree with someone does not give you the right to shut them up. Unless that are interfering with the exercise of a legitimate right, being at liberty means allowing others to be free as well.

The Future

As we celebrate Christmas, followed shortly by New Years, let us consider the present all of us are leaving to future generations. Will our children, and our children’s children, live in a country better than the one we live in now? That depends on what we do today, tomorrow, and for the rest of our tomorrows, as we try to secure such a nation for them. It’s my wish that we leave them a nation better, freer, and more at liberty than the one we have today. I also wish we leave those generations with a better understanding of the blessings of liberty, how we secure them, and a desire to leave this country to their rising generation in a better condition than they received it. My fervent wish is for the United States to live up to its national anthem, and be the land of the free by being the home of the brave.

Conclusion

I want to conclude with a personal set of wishes. Earlier this year I launched the Constitution Study Patriots Program, designed to help individuals, groups, and organizations better defend and assert their rights. My Christmas wish is that more people will join me, not only by getting the education needed to live as free men and women, but by helping me build more and better tools to help educate others. To that end, I wish for others to help me communicate what’s going on to an ever widening group of patriots, I wish for others willing to stand up for their rights, and for the rights of others. Lastly, I also wish for others willing to support the work we’re doing, in any way possible.

Oregon’s High-Minded Muddle

By Dennis Linthicum, Oregon State Senator

December 23, 2023

I’ve been off-line for a while because I ran straight into the voracious appetite of the Censorship Industrial Complex’s very own information shredder – OMNIVORE –

There was never any violation of the so-called: Acceptable Use Policy! Although, I have been adamant about the need for holding government to account with regard to CxVid, I never made false claims or tried to sell any products, other than TRUTH. Yet, because my Newsletter referred to CxVid. And… in my next breath I mentioned the high possibility of fraXd. That was enough to get my account served up to Omnivore. This is nothing less than government control over what speech is acceptable and what is not. (… No, this isn’t just a private company exercising their private contract rights.)

This is the start of a very dangerous trend.

Oregon’s own Secretary of State is trying the same tactic. Several of us have filed a Motion for a Preliminary Injunction to immediately halt the unConstitutional practice being implemented by RFP 7470 with regard to MDM (Mis-, Dis-, Mal-Information.)
Who, exactly, will define what is Mis-information? Dis-information, or Mal-information? The government, apparently.

These guys can’t define a woman and don’t know the difference between a heifer and a bull-calf. They have totally screwed up our education and criminal justice systems, increased homelessness, poverty, and drug abuse, and put the economy into the ditch. So, why not give them control of our thoughts, speech and language too?

Most people I encounter, as I travel about Oregon, raise questions about government overreach. They are anxious to share their opinions about this danger and the potential for tragedy.

We see government growing. We see more programs with dreamy titles and no meat on the bones. Proficiency tests are no longer used in Oregon for students to graduate.

We have gone from STEM to NM, or from Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math to Never-Mind for a High-school diploma. Our tax dollars are being wasted by agencies and bureaucrats and many programs negatively influence children by filling them with the state’s propaganda instead of skills they can use.

Whether these actors are elected office holders, executive appointees, agency directors or only members of the bureaucratic army, everyone is just doing their job. They are happy to be employed. They don’t want to be cancelled. It’s better to keep your mouth shut than get into trouble. Everyone seems to be happy doing their job, doing the bidding from higher up…

But isn’t this the universal tragedy of big government? Isn’t this exactly why the USSR collapsed? Hasn’t this been the tragedy of all dictatorial rulers, across all time and history?

This is not a modern problem. It is not a new dilemma. It is the same old gigantic problem that has always faced mankind. It is a universal evil. It is a giant so big and dark, so omnipresent, and so filled with lust that its overreach can contaminate every aspect of life.

In Solzhenitsyn’s The Gulag Archipelago he recalls:

“[It was while I] … lay there on rotting prison straw that I sensed within myself the first stirrings of good. Gradually it was disclosed to me that the line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either, but right through every human heart, and through all human hearts.”

This is how so many are easily bought. Everyone is just hungry. Hungry and worried about their families’ futures, their health and their well-being. Solzhenitsyn points out that there is only a thin-line between right and wrong and that distinction is not based on your political affiliation, or your national heritage. There are no tribes here, only people. The moral hazards we face can entangle anyone willing to deny Truth.

In our Founders’ era, people commonly understood that, “TRUTH may be burnt alive, but never dies.” In other words, it always prevails, there is no denying what is True.

Yet today’s academics advance new definitions that promote petty distinctions without any differences, except now everyone is confused, like the heifer-bull. They end up muddling Truth with falsehood. Unfortunately, this muddle gets picked up by media and broadcast about until finally a handful of dim-witted advocates for vice and villainy will try to teach this high-minded muddle to our kids.

Truth must be sought, respected, and obeyed. Otherwise, lives will become materialistic nightmares as people greedily receive the rewards flowing from their respective bosses. People will get sucked into the false sense of happiness by doing something immoral or wrong-headed because their boss made a request.

So, the real question is, “Who is the boss?”

John Adams, in Thoughts on Government (1776) helps us sort this out:

“Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it.”

So, all the above referenced actors, whether accidental, coincidental or purposeful, become one grand collusion team and their behavior plays a pivotal role in enabling state tyranny over the people.

Our responsibility is to advance Truth and Liberty – not empower the state, fund wasteful programs or protect diabolical state actors.

Canceling Culture with Foul Tax Laws

by Kathleen Marquardt

December 22, 2023

Do you like your home? Do you want to keep it? Your business?

It isn’t Halloween or April Fool’s Day, but you’d better be scared. The Supreme Court of the United States is hearing oral arguments on a case that reads like a trip to Dante’s hell. But if this case takes a wrong turn, we all will join Dante Alighieri there.

We have recently been warned that property taxes are going to go up, but there hasn’t been a mention that we are going to be paying taxes on monies that we might see for years or decades. Well, well, look at what is happening to the Moores.

David Catron’s article in The Spectator, “The Scariest SCOTUS Case This Term,” informs us of one of the evils our federal government is cooking (cooked?) up for us.

Tuesday morning, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments pursuant to a case in which Charles and Kathleen Moore argue that an obscure provision of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is unconstitutional.

At issue is the “mandatory repatriation tax” (MRT) and a 13 percent stake owned by the Moores in a company that supplies low-cost equipment to small farmers in India. The couple has never received income from this stock because the company reinvests all its profits in the business. Historically, the IRS hasn’t taxed shareholder “earnings” until they receive dividends or sell their stock for capital gain. Yet, pursuant to the MRT, the Moores received a $14,729 tax bill on their share of company profits.

According to Amy Howe in SCOTUSblog, “… until 2017, nothing in U.S. tax laws authorized the federal government to tax a controlled foreign corporation’s foreign income unless and until that income came to the United States – for example, through a distribution to U.S. shareholders”.

The Moores sued the government on the grounds that the IRS violated the Sixteenth Amendment. They lost in federal district court and in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, as legal scholar Steven Calabresi explains at the Volokh Conspiracy. [i]

We’ve known for decades that the Ninth Circuit Court is almost beyond hope of ever coming down on the right side of the law. Yes, occasionally, they throw in a fair finding just to make people think they are unbiased.

The court of appeals concluded that realization is not a precondition for income, and so the Moores could be taxed on unrealized gains in wealth. That rationale is not limited to the Moores, or to the particular tax, which the court applied in their case. Rather, under the Ninth Circuit’s analysis, investors might be taxed on their unrealized capital gains in their Vanguard funds or their stock portfolios. Moreover, homeowners might be taxed on their unrealized capital gains in their houses and land (emphasis mine) … The Supreme Court should reverse the Ninth Circuit and restore the original, commonsense meaning of the Sixteenth Amendment.

Asking that SCOTUS reverses the Ninth Circuit is definitely in order. If this is allowed to stand, every homeowner and business owner may be looking at onerous “pie in the sky” taxes that may or may not ever be realized. This is so far out there it boggles the mind, yet how many people will ever hear of it? This “mandatory repatriation tax” is so egregious that one wonders how it was not noticed immediately it was offered up – and then shut down. Who’s minding the store? And, remember, this came in Trump’s term.

To grasp the significance of Moore v. United States, it’s necessary to remember that the original Constitution didn’t permit income tax. [ii]Article I, Section 9 prohibited direct taxes on individuals unless apportioned on the basis of the population of each state. The huge cost of the Civil War prompted Congress to pass the first income tax in 1862, but it was phased out after the war. Congress passed another income tax law in 1894, but the Supreme Court struck it down in 1895. The Sixteenth Amendment was passed by Congress in 1909 and ratified in 1913, and it does indeed bestow on Congress “the power to lay and collect taxes on income,” but it was not as clear as it could have been on the precise definition of “income.” 

That issue was resolved in 1920, in Eisner v. Macomber, when the Supreme Court ruled that an increase in the value of a stock holding, in the absence of a monetary dividend, isn’t income: “Mere growth or increment of value in a capital investment is not income; income is essentially a gain or profit in itself of exchangeable value, proceeding from capital, severed from it, and derived or received by the taxpayer.” (emphasis mine.) The Moores have received no such benefit from the investment in question and therefore never incurred a legitimate tax liability. A ruling in favor of the government in Moore v. United States will eliminate any restrictions on Congress’ taxing power

This is not an “inside baseball” case that only compulsive Court watchers will care about. If the justices rule against the Moores, it will supercharge the government’s confiscatory powers by enabling its inclination to tax unrealized income. This will affect everyone reading this column, not just investors with large stock portfolios. It would, in theory, permit the IRS to tax an increase in the value of your home as a capital gain — whether you have sold it or not.

“Mere growth or increment of value in a capital investment is not income.”

There is more meat in Catron’s article. Please click on the link and read it. And get mad! Then do something. If this is allowed to stand, many of us will lose our homes and businesses because the government determines the value of our home or business will grow exponentially (we can only hope) and tax us on it now, even if we aren’t realizing that for ten or twenty years down the road. And with our economy going in the direction it is now, our homes will be worthless in a decade. And will the IRS reimburse us – with interest? Dream on.

Join or start a Freedom Pod and add this issue to the fight. Without the right to property, we are slaves.

The Harder Road Away from “World Order”

By Steven Yates

December 22, 2023

Sidney Secular’s short piece last Friday brought forth a few thoughts, in light of items I’ve encountered recently about Rome’s long and painful decline.

The Roman republic ended with the rise of the Caesars. That was shortly before the time of Christ. The empire expanded and continued, lurching from crisis to crisis, for almost five more centuries. Contrary to some Hollywood-esque depictions, Rome did not undergo a sudden and relatively unstructured collapse, so much as fade into irrelevance (except for the Vatican in its midst, of course). Its eastern offshoot, based at what is now Istanbul (originally Constantinople), continued for several hundred more years.

While comparisons between Rome and the U.S. are a dime a dozen, the question seems salient: will America’s decline be similar? Or that of Europe, since as should be clear from events there, the confrontation shaking America extends well beyond our shores.

It’s common to picture a violent confrontation coming between left and right. A civil war, in other words. Or an economic collapse.

Probably Hollywood stuff. Because Mad Max movies attract audiences.

What we can say for sure: two broad factions are battling for control over narratives as well as political-economies: those who want more global consolidation, versus those who don’t. Calling this a battle between leftists and rightists oversimplifies this. There are people “on the left” who don’t want global consolidation; there are people “on the right” who quite comfortable with it so long as they are the ones running it.

Those who want global consolidation are globalists, obviously; those who don’t are localists (one might call them, although globalist-controlled corporate media prefers for the latter terms like nationalists, nativists, xenophobes, white supremacists, racists, etc.).

Writers who support global consolidation have spoken quietly of “the hard road to world order” and advocated stealth in eroding national borders for a very simple reason: almost no one outside elite inner circles shares their goals. A few naïve academics see the sort of “global governance” the UN advances as akin to a natural evolutionary process. Globalists don’t care what their agenda does to common people.

Most want economic stability, cultural normalcy, and border security. They don’t want chronic disruptive change, instability, chaos.

Big Tech doesn’t get this. Silicon Valley is full of geeky types who follow the adage, “Move fast and break things.”

And naturally, most people don’t want war. Unlike the elites, they have no psychological need to support wars on the other side of the planet which advance only elite interests.

As I contended last week, a desire to rule all of humanity is not normal!

The problem now is, the agenda is so far along that not only is stopping it proving very difficult, but even if that agenda disappeared completely, nations and communities restoring the political values and cultural norms that originally built them is not going to be easy. They’ve been destroyed in all but a few of us, a generation that is rapidly aging (the youngest of us are in our 60s). The unsettling fact is, we’re not going to be around that much longer.

Meanwhile, two generations, Millennials and Gen Z, have grown up / are growing up never having known a world without political correctness, now called wokeness.

Many of their number take, e.g., “group rights,” for granted, and react angrily against attempts to curtail them.

Meanwhile, there are a few younger folks who never had anything specifically ideological in mind, just a desire to be left alone. They don’t appreciate being told they are racists when they express this desire as best they can.

It’s not hard to see more militant subgroups within the two, those who want to be left alone and those who won’t leave them alone (e.g., by moving illegal aliens into their neighborhoods, or by forcing “transgenderism” on their kids in government schools) coming to blows in the near future.

These, as Mr. Secular observes, would be skirmishes. Not a civil war.

He’s right: very, very few of us are up for that. Too many Boomers and Gen Xers are spoiled, distracted, lethargic. And speaking of distractions, too many Millennials and Gen Zers aren’t likely to put their smartphones down long enough to fight a civil war.

The latter are far too entitled.

I recall when I was teaching, especially in “flagship” universities, the students who believed themselves entitled to good grades just for showing up.

We live in an attention economy, moreover. Leviathan corporations control it, and they know more about you than you know about yourself, because their algorithms track your online activity. They automatically construct your feeds accordingly, to keep your attention as long as possible, advertising along with it, so you’ll be likely to purchase the goodies tailored to your interests they put in front of your eyes.

We’re easily thrown off track by email, messages, notifications, etc. Thanks to smartphones, we’re literally on call 24/7.

Small wonder many of us are lethargic mentally.

We’re also lethargic physically. Bad food is a massive contributing factor. The nutritional content of what is to be had from grocery stores has been dropping for decades. Don’t even get me started on processed foods filled with mildly-addictive flavor-enhancers and preservatives. Why preservatives? So they could be transported over sometimes thousands of miles in accordance with globalist political economy, as opposed to being grown or raised locally.

Many people have poor time management (i.e., self-management) skills and an inability to focus on what we can control, as opposed to what we can’t control.

Small wonder we’re easy prey for the corporate state.

Moreover, as Mr. Secular also observes, both “reds” and “blues” are too busy squabbling amongst themselves over priorities to organize in a fashion necessary to fight a civil war.

So what happens next?

I’ve sketched over a dozen scenarios. Some I’ve discussed, some not. Curiously, the outrageous ones (e.g., this) received the most responses.

What happens long term might be far more mundane, and look more like Rome’s long term fade-out than something Hollywood might concoct.

I’m unconvinced, first, that Trump will be allowed to win again.

I hope I’m wrong.

But the leftist-globalist alliance has learned from the results, so far, of three years of lawfare machinations that its loyal servants in both corporate media and government can demonize election critics, imprison stolen-election protesters most of whom were peaceful, and financially destroy those who refuse to shut up.

This militates against the likelihood their being another January 6 — even if the election is stolen in broad daylight!

The Establishment plan is to tie up Trump’s schedule next year with court dates, and try to drain his finances.

Meanwhile, controlled media are frantically demonizing him and his associates as hatching a plan to “end democracy.”

Sadly, by calling leftists “vermin” and saying he’d be a dictator “only on Day One,” in the present environment he’s not helping himself.

And whether Biden is somehow able to continue as president or the Democrat Party puts someone else in there (Gavin Newsom is the obvious choice), the left will continue its path of domestic destruction, as open borders policies allow more illegals who do not share American values or speak English to enter and colonize the country. Education will continue to unravel at all levels, although a few parallel institutions (e.g., the University of Austin, scheduled to begin offering courses next fall) will strive to educate a small community to maintain sound values.

The foreign wars will continue, and further drain American resources. Among the most disruptive scenarios I can imagine is if the idiots in the Asylum on the Potomac invent some pretext to launch a war against Iran. Teheran responds by mining the Strait of Hormuz. The price of oil immediately skyrockets. Gas in the U.S. shoots up not to $4/gallon but twice, three times, or even four times that!

Instant economic paralysis!

Not to mention the likelihood that among the migrants leftist policies have allowed to enter the U.S. are networked with Hezbollah, backed by Iran, who would start launching terrorist attacks in American shopping malls and sporting events!

What would happen next probably wouldn’t be pretty!

Another national lockdown! For your safety, of course!

Fortunately, common knowledge that gazillions of barrels of oil pass through the Strait of Hormuz every day probably saves us from this scenario, however badly neocon hotheads might want a war with Iran.

That brings us back to … America doesn’t collapse catastrophically but simply fades out, long-term. As did Rome.

Bottom line: unless there is a massive turnaround in America, a spiritual revival and recovery of the values that built the country, America’s standing as a world power is finished. It won’t take a civil or any other kind of war.

All it might take is the gradual end of the dollar hegemony, via an end to the dollar’s status as the world’s reserve currency.

The prevailing standard of living, depending as it does on this status, would drop. There would be nothing to sustain it.

The U.S. government would be seen for what it is on the world stage: a parade of clowns overseeing dysfunctional institutions.

We might find out how bad the Executive Branch might get if Kackling Kamala ever becomes president. At this point, I would not regard her chances as zero. Especially if the Democrats really do keep Biden where he is.

All that has to happen is for him to “win” next November, and then die in office.

President Kamala Harris!

Excuse me while I run to the bathroom!

It has been “a hard road to world order” by the elites — because it was hard to build the kinds of systems the globalist project required and keep it under wraps. There were always a few smart people out here in the hinterlands who figured out at least some of what was going on, articulated clearly what they saw, often naming names, with a few able to mount some level of resistance even if they couldn’t stop the process.

The Internet made that road harder … suddenly, defenders of alternatives to official narratives in every field or endeavor had a means of getting the word out to as wide an audience as they were able to reach.

When Trump upset Hillary in 2016, the globalist-leftist alliance panicked and scrambled to get control over information back. On social media platforms, they called this content moderation. We entered an era of censorship and gaslighting. The wealth consolidation of left-leaning Big Tech corporations helped this process immensely.

A road away from “world order”?

It’s likely to be even harder — harder for us than building “world order” has been for them. The political system may be corrupted beyond hope. Mainstream education is equally useless. I would place what hope exists in homeschooling and in emerging parallel institutions, which may function as monasteries once did during medieval times. They preserved values gleaned from the ancients through the dark years precipitated by Rome’s fade-out. If America fades out and does not flame out, we’ll need institutions able to do the same thing.

We have to know where we’re heading. There’s much to be gained in asking: (1) What kind of society do we want? and (2) What are we willing to do, and perhaps go through, to build it?

We need an account of what a healthy advancing civilization looks like … versus the causes of instability and deterioration. This goes beyond what I can do in this piece, and beyond what I’ve said previously about collapsed credibility of dominant narratives (“Globalization will make us all rich” “Diversity is our strength” etc.). I hope to pen some proposals early in the upcoming year. I can only pray to our God they amount to more than shouting in the wind.

How to Write Like a Propagandist

By Cliff Kincaid

December 22, 2023

Bloomberg is back with another ridiculous opinion piece masquerading as a news story, as a “journalist” with an “Evening Briefing” disguised as a “news” dispatch is telling his audience that Trump echoes Hitler and is a would-be dictator. This is what passes for “journalism” these days.

Like you, I have gotten sick and tired of the unrelenting bias, but since they send me their email messages free of charge, I figure I should reciprocate with my own analysis of how media bias these days has become outright propaganda. It is a turn for the worst but a fact of life I encountered when I majored in journalism in college 40 years ago. Back then they called it “advocacy journalism” or “interpretative reporting.”

The journalism business cannot be reformed. It is getting worse by the day.

The good news is that the bias is so overt and propagandistic that people can’t help but notice how corrupt it is.

Here is just one example of the supposed incendiary rhetoric of former President Trump, according to this phony journalist. He says “Trump again used inflammatory, anti-immigrant rhetoric seen as echoing that of the Third Reich, this time at a rally at the University of New Hampshire where he praised modern day authoritarian leaders including Vladimir Putin.”

Instead of Trump sounding like Hitler, Bloomberg is doing so, using the Big Lie technique of the Nazis. It is an amateurish attempt to compare Trump to Hitler, almost laughable. The awkward phrase, “seen as echoing that of the Third Reich,” is based on propaganda from the Democratic Party.

When the article claims “Trump again used inflammatory, anti-immigrant rhetoric seen as echoing that of the Third Reich,” he in fact links to a CBS News story that is based on something said by Biden-Harris campaign spokesperson Ammar Moussa.

This is journalism?

The Democrats are repeating the “Trump is Hitler” mantra, as well as denouncing “MAGA extremists,” to scare people. The Nazis did the same thing about the Jews. In this case, as we shall see, the scare techniques are necessary because Biden is crashing in the polls.

On command, Bloomberg “reporters” repeat these lies ad nauseam.  Of course, Trump didn’t praise Putin for his authoritarian rule; he has consistently said that Putin is a killer who has outsmarted Biden and other Western leaders, and that is an obvious fact.  Trump’s foreign policy was anti-Putin and anti-China. Biden’s foreign policy has led to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the Hamas invasion of Israel, and more serious Chinese threats against Taiwan.

The Bloomberg piece is yet another lie in a long list, as I documented in the recent column, “The Contant battle Against Constant Lies.”

I am accustomed to the media lying on a constant basis, but the fact that Bloomberg is so bad at lying and so transparent is somewhat surprising. I guess I expected coverage of a higher quality from a “news” organization that is supposed to be objective, at least on the economy.

I wrote this column in the hope that somewhere in the higher echelons of this “journalism” business it will be acknowledged that the extreme slant to their “news” stories has gone too far and that Bloomberg “news” has become a joke.

I guess I’m in a hopeful mood these days.

What explains this desperation on the part of the “journalists” at Bloomberg? One paragraph finally admits a piece of bad news for Biden: “Meanwhile,” he says, “President Joe Biden’s approval rating has hit an all-time low, according to a new Monmouth University poll.” (Click here to view poll).

To save Biden, they must lie about Trump, using images of Hitler and dictators.

But there is more. Trump, Bloomberg tells us, is “twice impeached and facing four felony indictments.”

Not a word about the partisan nature of any of this.

The author is identified as “Managing Editor” of Bloomberg Digital, a top dog and a big cheese with 29 years of experience as an “award-winning legal reporter, columnist, freelancer, editor and newsroom manager.”

Seriously? If so, journalism is in worst shape than I ever imaged.

I am returning to my days as a media critic, since the daily dispatches from the Democratic Party operatives at Bloomberg are so full of extreme bias as to make one laugh hysterically.  I can’t in good conscience ignore this kind of deception and dishonesty.

I believe this exercise on my part is worthwhile since the columns and stories on this supposed business website may be fooling some people. I hope you are not one.

Sandra Day O’Connor’s Disgraceful Legacy

By Cliff Kincaid

December 21, 2023

Fox News calls her a “moderate conservative.” That is a lie. The truth must be told, even though Washington’s elites have gathered to honor her. Her funeral service is taking place at Washington National Cathedral, and pro-abortion President Joe Biden is delivering a eulogy.

Conservative Caucus founder Howard Phillips was a true conservative who predicted that Sandra Day O’Connor, a Reagan nominee, would turn out to be pro-abortion on the court. He noted that she was a pro-abortion member of the Arizona State Senate and a liberal judge on the Arizona Court of Appeals. “She was chosen because of her gender and a desire to attract to the GOP the support of feminists,” he said. Again, Howard stood with principle, and he was correct.

When O’Connor gave a speech declaring that the court would increasingly make its decisions in deference to international law and foreign opinion, Phillips said she had violated her oath of office — swearing allegiance to the U.S. Constitution — and that she should be removed from office.

Howard didn’t make excuses for conservatives — even if it was Ronald Reagan — when they bowed to liberal pressure.

The process that began with Roe v. Wade in 1973 has left more than 60 million dead. This is a form of slavery that has made unborn babies into the property of others, subject to whims about when and if they live, or die.

“Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves,” President Ronald Reagan said. “Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide.”

But his nomination of O’Connor undermined those words.

Dr. Paul Kengor notes, “Though O’Connor generally was considered a court ‘moderate,’ she was a decisive swing vote in favor of preserving so-called ‘abortion rights,’ including the outrageous January 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, a judicial abomination with no basis whatsoever in the U.S. Constitution.”

In its Dobbs decision, the Supreme Court did throw the issue back to the states, ruling there is no right to abortion in the Constitution. That was correct. But that does not mean politicians should acquiesce in the decision by states or individuals to permit abortions.

What is needed is a Human Life Amendment to the Constitution, making it crystal clear there is an individual right to life. Anything short of that risks the soul of America and the souls of those who endorse the murder of the unborn.

I was switching channels all day, after so-called “abortion advocates” won in Virginia and Ohio, trying to figure out why some “conservatives” are now saying that Republican politicians must somehow “compromise” and permit the killing of the unborn under some circumstances. Senator Ted Cruz was on Newsmax, arguing for the “state’s rights” approach approved by the Supreme Court. But if an innocent unborn human being is in fact an innocent unborn human being, how can any death sentence be justified?

I can understand abortion in the rare case of self-defense, or when a woman’s life is in danger, but how is it to be rationalized as a matter of convenience to the woman when the woman had a role in making this life possible? A baby is not the property of the mother or anybody else.

If a woman cannot for medical or health reasons carry the baby to term, that is one thing. That is not a deliberate abortion.

Republican Rep. Nancy Mace says we must find a “middle ground” on abortion. But our nation did not find a “middle ground” on slavery. The outcome was supposed to demonstrate that people are not the personal property of other people. I thought this issue was settled with the American Civil War.

In cases of rape or incest, the baby is still innocent.

NBC News says that O’Connor regularly attended services at the National Cathedral and served on its governing board. “Grounded in the reconciling love of Jesus Christ,” the institution proclaims, “Washington National Cathedral is a house of prayer for all people, conceived by our founders to serve as a great church for national purposes.”

What national purpose is served by killing the unborn?

Like feminist Ruth Bader Ginsburg, O’Connor was an example to young women, and a very bad example. She led women to believe that they had property rights over the unborn babies within them, and that they alone could decide their fate.

Women should be in the forefront of the motherhood movement, dedicated to the proposition that all lives matter and all lives are created equal.

No Borders? No Country

by Lee Duigon

December 21, 2023

Italy and the UK are beginning to talk seriously about limiting immigration—especially illegal immigration from Muslim countries—and France and Germany had better follow suit if they know what’s good for them. Can’t have all these jihad johnnies on the loose.

The problem, as stated by Giorgia Meloni, prime minister of Italy, is that certain varieties of Islam are simply “not compatible” with European values—surely the understatement of the year. Shari’a law, Islamic law, she says, is “impossible” for Europe. It has certain features—the death penalty for homosexuals, for instance—that just won’t fly in Europe. This just won’t do, she concludes.

Not that she knows, yet, what to do about it. She admits that. But she doesn’t want to float any policy that’s only so much window-dressing: that sounds good, looks good, but doesn’t solve the problem.

Immigration law has a long history. In ancient Israel, “strangers” (as they called them) could live and work in Israel as long as they obeyed the laws. They could convert to Judaism: King David himself was descended from Ruth, a woman of Moab. Later kings grew rather careless about this and imported foreign gods and religious practices leading eventually to the loss of both their kingdoms.

Solon the Lawgiver made immigration laws for Athens. To become an Athenian, you had to publicly renounce all ties to your mother country. If you weren’t a woman or a slave, the way was clear for you to become a full-fledged citizen. His policies were generally successful.

Roman legions guarded Rome’s borders along the Rhine and Danube rivers; but over the years, Rome extended citizenship rights to many people throughout the Empire. St. Paul himself, and other apostles, was a Roman citizen with full legal rights—up to a point. That point was passed by many early Christians, who died for it.

As long as Rome could enforce her borders, she prospered. But when those borders failed, the western half of the Empire collapsed, overrun by Huns, Vandals, Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Alans, etc., etc. The eastern half, by dint of military force and dodgy diplomacy, hung on for another thousand years.

Where is it written that national borders are only there for laughs? That anyone who feels like it can just waltz into your country and get free stuff? And that, once there, they can agitate, protest, and make demands to their hearts’ content—and let the host country bear the consequences?

It can be stated simply: a country without borders is not a country. Furthermore, a country with a plethora of cultures within its borders can only survive if either all those competing grounds are kept in line by their fear of the state’s overwhelming force—Roman legions, for instance—or, much less common, a shared commitment to the peace and order of the host country—which was Solon’s model… and, until recently, our own.

“Yeahbut, yeahbut! Without borders, we can have a world government! It’ll be ever so much nicer!” [Readers may provide their own rude noises. I’m going with a long, loud raspberry.]

Are America and Europe prepared to keep their states in being by applying overwhelming force? Ms. Meloni doesn’t think it’s possible to get radical Islamists to make a commitment to Italy as it is: they don’t want it as it is. How can it possibly be argued that she’s wrong?

Wishful thinking and pious lip-service to “diversity” will not serve us any better than it did the Western Roman Empire.

Let’s Make Americans Moral Again

By Coach Dave Daubenmire

December 21, 2023

I just celebrated my 71st birthday on Thanksgiving weekend.  It is hard to comprehend.  Seventy-one is something that I would expect my father to be…but he would be 105 on his next birthday…if he had not already ridden into the sunset.

I often wonder what he would think if he were alive today to see the world in which his great grandchildren were living.  He was a child of the Great Depression, a time when most of his generation learned to make the most out of lack.

“The Greatest Generation,” the history books called them.  A generation of Americans, as JFK said, “Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans–born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage–and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.”

That generation conquered Hitler, Stalin, Hirohito, and Mussolini and from the deep wounds of a foreign war, America forged the greatest economic explosion the world had ever seen immortalized by “Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet.”  For a brief time, America was that “shining city set on a hill” illuminating the known world with the “blessing of liberty to ourselves and our posterity…”  Until American men went soft.

But we ignored the warnings of the Scriptures which for 200 years had been the blueprint upon which the American miracle had been built.  “A good man,” the Scriptures extolled us, “leaves an inheritance to his children’s children.”  A good man builds a future for his grandchildren…a legacy if you will…something to leave behind.  A path to follow.

Psalm 78 says it this way, “For he established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which he commanded our fathers, that they should make them known to their children: That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children: That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments: And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not stedfast with God.”

Somewhere along the journey we missed the boat.  The inheritance we were supposed to leave was not money, but HERITAGE…the idea that it meant something to be an American…Christian…Daubenmire…a legacy of the footprints that our PERSONAL fore-fathers carved out.  Goodness and mercy is supposed to FOLLOW us…as our virtue leaves breadcrumbs for those coming after us.

But we have blown the inheritance.  America’s bank accounts have been drained, financially…morally…Spiritually.  Our legacy is a quagmire of murky “freedoms” that masquerades as “rights.”  Self-sacrifice is yesterday’s news.  MY body…MY choice…MY rights.  “Dying to self” was thrown out with the bath-water.

It is time all Americans took a PERSONAL inventory of what REALLY matters.  Psalm 11:3 exhorts us “If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?”  That IS the question, isn’t it?  America is going to hell in a handbasket and what are THE RIGHTEOUS going to do about it?

We discussed this on my morning podcast today.  Forgive the obvious self-promotion, but you would do well to give it a listen in your leisure… it is free.  HERE.

As we often do on the show, we journeyed into www.webstersdictionary1828.com.  The site is valuable in understanding the LANGUAGE in which our Founders spoke.  Words have meaning, you know?  We would do well to all speak the same language.

Our journey took us to three pillars which we need to rebuild. Without these foundations America will never survive.  What are they teaching in your local schools?  What are the professors puking into the minds of our college students?  What is the media daily “programming” us with?  How about we stand up and push back?

Noah Webster defined DUTY as “That which a person OWES to another; that which a person is bound, by any natural, moral or legal obligation, to pay, do or perform.”

The Declaration of Independence speaks of duty.  “But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”  Heritage, my good men.  Duty.

HONOR is “The esteem due or paid to worth; high estimation.”    A man gets paid according to his value.  What is the average Christian American worth?  What are we teaching America’s children to value?

VIRTUE is “Moral goodness; the practice of moral duties and the abstaining from vice, or a conformity of life and conversation to the moral law.”  Americans are good at fake virtue…virtue signaling is what they call it today.  “A form of godliness “is how the Bible explains it.

John Adams, one of our nation’s founders warned us, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

Is it any wonder why we are in the mess we are in?

President Teddy Roosevelt warned us “To educate a person in the mind but not in morals is to educate a menace to society.”

Are our schools teaching this today?  Is our government?  Are our churches?  Whatever happened to shame?

Alexis de Tocqueville is purported to have said “America is great because America is good.  If America ever ceases to be good, she will cease also to be great.”

If we are to ever Make America Great Again we must first strive to make MEN great again.

Duty!  Honor!  Virtue!  Let’s make individual AMERICANS MORAL AGAIN!

Among Pilots, Heart Failure Up 1000%

By Bradlee Dean

December 20, 2023

“For the life of the flesh is in the blood…” -Leviticus 17:11

Last week a friend of mine who just happens to be a pilot for a major airline sent this over to me to share with you.

Armstrongeconomics.com reported:

New data from the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) indicates a significant increase in heart issues among pilots, with heart failure spiking nearly 1,000% in 2022. Lieutenant Ted Macie, an active-duty officer with the U.S. Navy Medical Service Corps, raised concerns about the health risks associated with the COVID-19 shots, including heart-related ailments. The data, obtained from the Pentagon’s Defense Medical Epidemiology Database, shows drastic spikes in various diagnoses for serious medical issues, prompting questions about the potential impact of the COVID-19 vaccine on the health of service members.

In addition to serious cardiovascular issues, the Pentagon saw significant spikes in numerous ailments well beyond their five-year averages including hypertension (2,181%), neurological disorders (1,048%), multiple sclerosis (680%), Guillain-Barre syndrome (551%), breast cancer, (487%), female infertility (472%), pulmonary embolism (468%), migraines (452%), ovarian dysfunction (437%), testicular cancer (369%), and tachycardia (302%). Heart-related ailments have soared over the past 5 years as well including hypertension (36%), ischemic heart disease (69%), pulmonary heart disease (62%), heart failure (973%), cardiomyopathy (152%), and other non-specified heart diseases (63%).

The findings have reignited discussions about the safety and efficacy of the vaccine mandate for military personnel. A 1000% increase in heart failures among pilots in just one year is cause for major concern. Why must we continually force service members to take these vaccines when we know they are likely unsafe?

Regardless of the facts and findings as to who is responsible for these criminal acts being committed against innocent people, Big Pharma, with the help of the corrupt within the halls of government, continues to push forward with its wicked agenda (Jeremiah 11:9).  Where is the justice?

Only Americans can bring that, and if they fail to do so, there will be more of this on the horizon, rest assured (Amos 6:3).

Washington’s Farewell Address, Part 2

By Paul Engel

December 20, 2023

  • Previously we started reviewing the farewell address of George Washington.
  • As we conclude this review we’ll look at Washington’s view on separation of powers, Religion and Government, Debt, and more.
  • As we read Washington’s farewell to public life, we should learn some of the lessons he tried to teach us.

In the last article, I started reviewing George Washington’s Farewell Address. As we pick up in the middle of the document, you may want to go back and refresh your memory. Washington has already talked about the strength of the union and the centrality of the Constitution. Now, we pick up his advice with the separation of powers.

Separation of Powers

Liberty itself will find in such a government, with powers properly distributed and adjusted, its surest guardian.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

There’s a reason why power is distributed in this country, not just within the federal government, but between the state and federal governments as well. Liberty, the ability to live your life as you see fit, is protected by such separation. So when we see the Executive Branch being delegated and assuming powers not their own, your liberty is in danger. Even worse, when the states relinquish their power to the bribes and intimidations from Washington, D.C., liberty is not only in danger, but under direct attack.

Political Parties

The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of public liberty.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

The only thing worse than the states turning over control to a centralized government, is for them to turn their power over to political parties. The spirit of revenge Washington talked about is alive, well, and on full display not only in Washington, D.C., but in many of our states and cities as well. And as he warned, more and more people are turning to the absolute power of an individual to restore order, but they will only find the ruins of our public liberty.

It serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection. It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which finds a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions. Thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

This war between the political parties not only distracts those we hire to represent us, but in many cases makes it impossible for them to govern based on the Constitution to which they took an oath. It foments the animosity of groups, driving them toward more militant positions which will one day lead to riots and insurrection. If you search the news, you will see several groups have already gone that far, and their political allies accuse their opponents of doing the same.

Religion and Government

Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Before the Supreme Court wrote their own opinions about separation of church and state, Thomas Jefferson stated the it was created to protect the church from the state, not the other way around. Before Jefferson’s letter where we get that phrase, Washington stated that religion and morality were indispensable to political prosperity. Or as John Adams put it:

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other

From John Adams to Massachusetts Militia, 11 October 1798

So why do we work so hard today to keep religion and morality out of politics? If, as Washington said, you cannot claim the name of patriot while subverting these two great pillars, what does that say about those today who labor so hard at tearing them down?

Debt

As a very important source of strength and security, cherish public credit. One method of preserving it is to use it as sparingly as possible, avoiding occasions of expense by cultivating peace, but remembering also that timely disbursements to prepare for danger frequently prevent much greater disbursements to repel it, avoiding likewise the accumulation of debt, not only by shunning occasions of expense, but by vigorous exertion in time of peace to discharge the debts which unavoidable wars may have occasioned, not ungenerously throwing upon posterity the burden which we ourselves ought to bear.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

The full faith and credit of the United States is a source of great strength and influence, not only in times of peace, but for our ability to fund necessary wars. Therefore our credit should be something jealously guarded. Today, with our almost $34 trillion in debt, (that $34,000,000,000,000), it seems we not only no longer guard our national credit, but debase it. Rather than using our credit sparingly and shunning occasions of expense, as Washington suggested, we’ve been finding every possible way to expend more and more money, generally for political gain. When in times of peace, rather than taking the opportunity to discharge our debts, we have been ungenerously throwing upon our posterity a burden they could never bear.

Foreign Relations

In the execution of such a plan, nothing is more essential than that permanent, inveterate antipathies against particular nations, and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded; and that, in place of them, just and amicable feelings towards all should be cultivated.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Washington was trying to make a point. As a nation we should not have strong positions, either for or against, any other nation. This is quite the opposite of America’s foreign policy for several generations. Why did Washington think we should stay out of foreign entanglements?

The nation which indulges towards another a habitual hatred or a habitual fondness is in some degree a slave. It is a slave to its animosity or to its affection, either of which is sufficient to lead it astray from its duty and its interest.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

When we make a relationship with another nation, when we tie our future to theirs for good or for ill, we put them in charge of our foreign policy. Our alliance with Great Britain got us into two world wars, and our alliance with Saudi Arabia has frequently put us at odds with other Middle Eastern nations, including until recently having our embassy in Israel in Tel Aviv rather than Jerusalem. In the same way our fear of the Soviet Union influenced our decisions in Eastern Europe for decades, our fear of China means we still won’t officially recognize Taiwan as its own country.

Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. … Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Compare Washington’s urging against foreign influence to today’s agenda of the United States as the world’s policeman, the nation you go to when you need assistance or protection. So what would Washington have us do? How would he have us deal with other nations?

The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Put another way, in commerce friends; beyond that we should have as little connection as possible. Think back, how many wars have started because of treaties between nations? Now we have calls for the U.S. to not only send weapons to Ukraine, but put American boots on the ground.

Why forego the advantages of so peculiar a situation? Why quit our own to stand upon foreign ground? Why, by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalship, interest, humor or caprice?

It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world; so far, I mean, as we are now at liberty to do it; for let me not be understood as capable of patronizing infidelity to existing engagements. I hold the maxim no less applicable to public than to private affairs, that honesty is always the best policy. I repeat it, therefore, let those engagements be observed in their genuine sense. But, in my opinion, it is unnecessary and would be unwise to extend them.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

If honesty is the best policy, both in public and private affairs, here is a truth we all should share. My father told me not to co-sign a loan for a friend, because your future is tied to them paying the loan. When we link our futures to the affairs of other nations, they are in control, not us. Put another way, we enslave our future to their decisions.

Farewell

Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors. Whatever they may be, I fervently beseech the Almighty to avert or mitigate the evils to which they may tend.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Here is something rare in politics today: Humility. The father of the nation, the first President of the United States, and the only man known for walking away from power, had the humility to know that he has probably committed many errors. Now there is a farewell with class. If only our current crop of politicians, bureaucrats, pundits, and so-called experts, could show a faction of such class.

Conclusion

What have you learned from the farewell address of the Father of our country? Was it the importance of following the Constitution, or of religion and morality? That we should avoid debt and foreign entanglements? Or was it something else? While no man is perfect, a fact Washington not only knew but expressed, there is a lot to learn from his advice. Perhaps a frequent review of his sentiments on such matters would alleviate us of many of our problems, turmoil, and pain.

To the Ends of the Earth: Lost White Migrations and Civilizations, Part 5

Sidney Secular

December 20, 2023

Great Zimbabwe – the Scottish Picts

Evidence suggests the ancient Picts of Scotland — not the Bantus as some claim – were the builders of the enigmatic African citadel of Great Zimbabwe.  Modern history has devolved from attempts at discovering facts into racial politics so that the Blacks can claim accomplishments where their connections to the forward march of progress are tenuous and trivial at best. This has been to allow Blacks to “feel good”  about themselves as a race. This is obvious in the current “historical” nonsense of permitting Blacks to take credit for the advanced civilization of ancient Egypt although there is infinite proof that at its zenith, this civilization was White and only began to deteriorate as Blacks become an influence. But, of course, if history can be ignored in the north of the continent, why not do the same at the other end at the ruins of a late Iron Age site in southeastern Africa called Great Zimbabwe? At one time, it was the largest population center in sub-Saharan Africa (see below)

Pharoah Seti I ………………Queen Tiye

Pharoah Seti I was the second King of the 19th Dynasty during the New Kingdom period, ruling about  1294 or 1290 BCE to 1279 BCE. He was the father of Rameses II, also known as Rameses The Great.

Queen Tiye (also known as Tiy, 1398-1338 BCE) reigned in the 20th Dynasty. She was the wife of the pharaoh Amenhotep III, mother of Akhenaten, and grandmother of both Tutankhamun and Ankhsenamun. This was a period of great strife in Egypt.

The principal structure at the main site of “The Great Zimbabwe” is a conical tower, which tapers gradually inwardly towards the top to give it stability. It is composed of granite stones of varying sizes matched together like a great jigsaw puzzle with no mortar to hold it together, obtained from the surrounding countryside. It is 30 feet high, and 18 feet wide at its base. It is only one of about 300 stone structures of varying size and shape enclosed within a circular wall similarly constructed of stones, which is an incredible 20 feet thick, 36 feet high, and 820 feet in circumference, creating a fort-like appearance. It really wasn’t a fort because one could walk into it through its unimpeded entrances and it displayed no defense-type features. There were about 200 small scale replicas of the main “fortification” which one could think of as “suburbs.”

Monumental structures in pre-historic and early historic times often were just used for storage and ceremonial purposes and were not fortifications or domestic residences in the sense we think of them. Stored in the “facilities” within the “fort” were a variety of objects, many composed of gold. Six-hundred fifty tons of gold were found lying about within the “fort”, which was but a fraction of the gold mined in the immediate vicinity. In addition to the said gold, there were a variety of objects and jewelry crafted from gold including beads, bracelets, pendants and sheaths. In a similar vein, there were a variety of elaborately worked objects composed of ivory, copper, and iron, including ingots, wire, crucibles, gongs, and agricultural equipment.

The inhabitants apparently were engaged in a lucrative and worldwide trade involving objects obtained from or sent to various places. Syrian glass beads, Arabian and Roman coins, Chinese pottery, and Persian ceramics were found at the site. Such trade would require a  fleet of seaworthy vessels capable of traversing long distances. The international commerce was supplemented by regional agricultural abundance including large scale cattle raising. None of these accomplishments were known to exist in the rest of sub-Saharan Africa when, indeed, the wheel was unknown.

There is a wide difference or divergence of opinion as to when the complex was established and who established it, the time periods ranging from that of King Solomon to the First Century, A.D. to just before 1,500 A.D. Some consider the site to be the mysterious Ophir, the place at which King Solomon’s legendary mines may have been located while others consider the site to actually be the Great Zimbabwe. To some, the Phoenicians (a people who did construct conical towers) and medieval Arabs have been cited as the founders of the site. But today, that is the age of political correctness run amuck, present day Black nationalists have claimed that the local Bantu tribes established the site and had slaves that did the agricultural work associated with it. By far, however, the most likely creators of the localized civilization were the Picts, a Celtic tribe that occupied north and northeastern Scotland for at least 1,000 years but who disappeared as a separate people when they  were assimilated into other Celtic tribes moving into the area, a process that was completed by about 800 A.D.

But before that assimilation occurred, some of these White people apparently made the 8,000 mile voyage from Scotland the southeastern Africa. Now this is hardly impossible as there were already White people making such trips about the world as can be seen by the Roman invasion of Britain! And there is other proof as, for instance, the fort-like “Great Enclosure” of Great Zimbabwe is almost an exact replica of borh Clickimin Loch or Mousa Broch in Scotland, structures that were creations of those same Picts and had already been in existence 2,000 years ago. The conical Great Zimbabwe tower is a typical dry-stone building of this type that is found only in Scotland, even to their mutually shared height of 44 feet. Inside the Mousa Broch, archeologists recovered a three-foot long model of a prehistoric deep sea vessel carved from fir wood. The vessel itself would have been 40 feet in length, with a particular hull style specifically designed to ride out high waves. It would have been eminently seaworthy and therefore sufficient to carry the Picts from Scotland to southeast Africa.

Radiocarbon testing of various building materials at the Zimbabwe site show that different eras were involved in creating and modifying the site with the earliest consisting of a large crossbeam installed during  the reign of the Roman Emperor Antonius Pius circa 138 A.D. Some construction work was conducted around 600 A.D. and some modifications were being conducted immediately before abandonment of the site around 1,450 A.D. due to a prolonged drought that caused drastic water shortages and resultant famine. Historically, a major arrival of Pict settlers appears to have occurred around 590 A.D. which coincided with the abandonment of the Clickimin Loch in Scotland.

Nor is this just speculation. The local Bantus have tribal recollections of a foreign race of coming among them and known as the “Pink Men” for their red hair and rosy complexions as creators of the site. These recollections described the newcomers as having blue, green or brown eyes with some having long flowing black or yellow hair as well as those with red hair. One of the “Pink People” appears to have been depicted in a large display of rock art called the “Great Man of Chamavara”. a complementary work of rock art known as the “Woman of Chamavara” shows pale skin, long-flowing red hair, baggy pants, pointed shoes, and shoulder armor similar to that worn by the Classical Greeks.

The Pict presence in Scotland is proved by a large groups of standing stones completely covered with carved circular and spiral symbols. The Picts also created a blue-colored paste from the Woad plant with which they decorated their bodies with symbology and tattoos similar to that depicted on the standing stones. The English derivative words “picture’ and “depiction” directly refer to the decorative arts for which the Picts were famous.

Get Rid of the “Black Vote”

By: Devvy

December 19, 2023

Oh, good. I have your attention.  At the conclusion of my column last week, I wrote part II would be:  Separate States from Federal Tyranny

Every election cycle we hear the same old worn-out propaganda from incumbents and challengers in Congress about what they will do for the black vote or the Hispanic vote; Asian voters are rarely mentioned.  Oh, and don’t forget suburban moms and “women’s issues” which I covered in my Jan. 8, 2007, column, Pelosi & Her Brassiere Brigade:

“This last pretend election cycle, voters heard the same old recycled mantra from female incumbents and candidates. The Sisterhood of Sycophants relentless carping on “women’s issues” in furtherance of “empowering women,” “for the children,” and “building the community” (pure communism). What absolute bilge. The feminization of Congress has been destroying constitutional government for decades, running America into oceans of unpayable debt and breeding generations of helpless women, whining for mother government to take care of them and their every need.

“The U.S. Constitution, specifically Article 1, Section 8, specifically enumerates the only areas where Congress can legislate. There are no “women’s issues” in that section of the Constitution. That eliminates education, altering the Second Amendment, after-school programs, studies for breast feeding, child care and a thousand other areas where women in elected office have been unconstitutionally introducing and passing bills for decades. The resultant laws have saddled all of us with unpayable debt.”

Spineless “conservative” male reps and senators went right along with it for votes.  No thought to the U.S. Constitution was or is even considered to this day.  Only what mother government will give them even though they are destroying their children’s future by passing along unpayable debt that is going to come crashing down despite the lies coming from the conspiracy theorists in the “mainstream media” about a rebounding economy under liar and cheat, Joe Biden.

It’s time to turn the tables on the race baiters trying to divide We the People.  Professional politicians of both parties always trying to out do the ‘other side’ with fake promises of this that or the other for the “black vote” when they could care less about black Americans.  I say throw it back in their face and ask where in Art. 1, Sec. 8 of the U.S. Constitution which you swore to protect and defend does it single out any race or ethnicity for the only issues Congress has legislative authority?  Trademarks and patents?  Taxation?  Coin money, create post offices?  Those are functions that benefit ALL natural born and naturalized citizens.

Do the same thing when calling talk radio or at meetings for your group or organization.  We have to get Americans on the same page as far as stopping the tyranny coming out of DC and that Congress can only legislate functions listed in Art. 1, Sec. 8 that has nothing to do with race.  A good example is funding for the abortion industry, particularly Planned Parenthood.  NOTHING in Art. 1, Sec. 8 authorizes Congress to fund private corporations like Planned Parenthood nor can the federal government act as a bank making loans to college students or private corporations commonly known as “bail outs”. [1]

The planned destruction of America began to ramp up when FDR began implementing socialism dressed up as democracy – a form of government the Founding Fathers hated.  FDR served as president from 1933-1945.  Arthur Henning of the Chicago Tribune said back in 1935, “The New Deal will bring the Communist Party within striking distance of overthrow of the American form of government…” Mark Sullivan of the Buffalo Evening News also expressed alarm in 1935: “The New Deal is to America what the early phase of Nazism was to Germany.”

Then came Lyndon Baines Johnson, [D-TX] who tragically became president.  A man with the morals of an alley cat whose bragging about the size of his penis was legendary;  LBJ called it ‘jumbo and that is a fact.  LBJ was going to get rid of hunger, poverty and create a wonderland for all!  LBJ’s “Great Society”.  Never mind the constitution does NOT give any president the authority to do what he promised and the same applied to Congress.  Art. 1, Sec. 8 – Scope of Legislature Power of the U.S. Constitution ONLY authorizes Congress to legislate as strictly defined here.  War, trade, taxes, copyrights and so forth.

Each and every clause of Art. 1, Sec. 8 are for necessary functions of the general government to maintain a constitutional republic for the good of ALL natural born and naturalized citizens of these united States of America.  Politicians using race and sex (male, female only because there are only two biological sexes) is strictly for votes.  They lie through their teeth and as soon as they’re sworn in it’s back to business as usual:  Screwing all of us.  There are rare exceptions in Congress today but we need more of them.

At the time the Constitution was written and adopted which created two separate chambers of Congress, the general government was to be strictly limited to ensure the states would not be trampled by a tyrannical government.

Remember this famous line in the great movie, The Patriot (Mel Gibson) who didn’t want to take on the British; he wanted to keep petitioning them?  Why should I trade one tyrant 3,000 miles away (King George) or 3,000 tyrants one mile away? was his question.  You see, farmer Benjamin Martin was a widower with seven children he fiercely loved.  He did not want to go to war.  Then it touched him and his children.  The British killed one of his sons.

Today we have a Congress infested with traitorous intentions, gutless cowards and those who lust for money and power.  Hundreds of them who take the oath of office and turn right around and defecate on the Supreme Law of the Land for votes and power.  That is why the 2024 elections are so critical.

There were many involved in creating this new government and country who were justifiably concerned about putting too much power in the hands of the general government so the Bill of Rights was birthed.  The Bill of Rights for ALL natural born and naturalized citizens whether Caucasian, black, Asian or human beings with brown skin.  Regardless of skin color, those are our God-given for all of us, rights the federal government cannot erase or trample on unless we allow it. 

In particular for this column is the Tenth Amendment:  “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.”  There is nothing in there about anyone’s skin color or “women’s issues”.

Those external powers granted Congress in Art. 1, Sec. 8 were checked by the Tenth Amendment.  At least that was the intention of the authors at the time.  It’s truly disgusting states of the Union for almost as long as I’ve been alive have caved and allowed the federal government to walk all over them with promises of more money in the form of taxes, taxes, taxes.

The other tool used against us has been the ‘general welfare clause’ that I’m betting 80% of adult aged Americans know nothing about but is so important:  General Welfare Clause [The Congress shall have Power] To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States.

“As Rob Natelson put it in his paper, The General Welfare Clause and the Public Trust: “The clause was designed as a trust-style rule denying Congress authority to levy taxes for any but general, national purposes. Because the Clause prevented Congress from using tax revenue for local or special interest purposes, the Clause indirectly qualified the appropriation power. Even if some enumerated power could be enlisted to support the appropriation, federal tax money was not to be used for the private benefit of a museum-however worthy-in Savannah, nor an artist-however struggling-in New York.”

“To take the clause as a general grant of power for the federal government to do virtually anything would, as Madison put it, “would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators.”

The insanity coming out of Congress for half a century has not been squashed by enough states.  The result is now a $33 TRILLION dollar debt to the unconstitutional, privately owned “Federal” Reserve – the candy store for corrupt politicians in Congress to carry out their agendas for votes and to stay in power.

Here in Texas and a few other states like Missouri, Attorney General’s have been suing the illegitimate Biden cabal.  While on solid legal grounds, too many of their legal challenges have been trashed by partisan federal judges who should be impeached.

As I’ve written so many times:  The majority of Americans have NO clue regarding the ‘national debt’ and how it is going to crush them in the near future.  It’s more important to spend time screaming and yelling at the U.S. Capitol for the “right” to kill a beating heart, the unborn.  Or more “rights” for queers, or other issues for which Congress has NO legislative authority.

Since Congress refuses to adhere to the Tenth Amendment and partisan judges also ignore it, once again, states have the duty, the obligation to invoke nullification.

We had two important nullification votes in the first session of our legislature, which I wrote about:  Two New State Nullification Bills – Will They Pass?, Jan. 23, 2023.  House side:  HB 384 and on the Senate side SB 313

It has been a war in Austin this year due to our rotten SOB Speaker of the House, RINO Dade Phelan who led the way to impeach our Attorney General Ken Paxton who has found 100% innocent after the sham impeachment hearing and trial by our state senate.

HB 384, The Sovereignty Act (READ IT).  That Act was introduced a half dozen times in other sessions but never made it to the House floor in our legislature.  Just allow the tyrants in DC to continue stomping on Texans and our God-given rights.  SB 313 was the sister bill in the Senate where it died in committee.  Our legislature is GOP controlled.  What does that tell Texans?  It’s time to clean house in the March primary.

The tyranny coming out of DC must be stopped and a great deal can be done by nullification but it doesn’t appear our state legislature has any interest in slaying he dragon.

GOP State Conventions are coming soon.  I was a delegate for 2021 but because I ended up in the hospital with pneumonia and needed time to recover, I couldn’t attend.  Here in my ‘red’ city, we can’t even get enough delegates we are due to attend the convention.  Truly disgusting. What goes on in those state conventions is critical.  For all the complaining, talk is cheap.  It takes boots on the ground and sacrificing our time and financial resources by getting into the machine and educating them (delegates) about solutions.

I’ve provided a great deal of information on that the bottom of my Jan. 23, 2023 column on how to fight back.  I know everyone is gearing up for Christmas Day, but God helps those who help themselves.  Hopefully you can find time to read the highlighted links in this column over the Christmas holiday.  Share with friends and family.  Either our state legislatures are going to fight back or the destroyers will kill us off for good in 2024.  It’s that urgent.

This is a MUST read over the Christmas weekend holiday:  Myths of the Great Depression by Lawrence W. Reed, 1981.  It’s so very important to understand the sleight of hand – the federal government creating jobs – the ultimate goal of creating a helpless, government – dependent population.  A true free market is the only solution unless someone wants to live under the yoke of communism.

People always say they don’t have time to read. Well then, they don’t have time for freedom, either. Knowledge is power, but only if we acquire and use it.

Freedom is our noble cause. Stay the course.

The Scary Similarities Between FDR’s New Deal and the Coronavirus, August 12, 2020, by Ron Ewart, God rest his soul.  Ron passed away in 2021, a fighter right up to the end.

DeSantis is DeSperate, Seasons Blessings Not Coming His Way

Kat Stansell

Dec 19, 2023

Looks to me like DeGov is getting lumps of coal in his stocking(s) this holiday, and they may interfere with the lifts in his shoes that make him feel like a big man. He HAS been a bad boy, and Santa knows all.

Since most know of Ron DeGov’s problems by now, I won’t list everything that is disintegrating under him. I’ll try to stick to the stuff that ticks Santa off the most.

From the start, DeSantis angered many by breaking his promise to fulfill his second term as governor of the State of Florida. Then, he threw the $80 million remaining in his gubernatorial campaign warchest into the run for POTUS. Wouldn’t be surprised if several million Floridians wrote Saint Nick about these, in advance of the season. Now for the holiday lumps.

November 21, DeSantis bought an endorsement from an Iowa evangelist, Robert VanderPlaat, for $95,000. The man of God immediately picked DeSantis over Trump. Another note to Santa may well have gone out here.

The next day, Nov. 22, the CEO of the DeSantis Super Pac, “Never Back Down” Chris Jankowski, did. After a meeting that nearly ended in blows, UPI reported that the “resignation comes among continued uncertainty and infighting”

Although Super PACS are legally not allowed to coordinate with campaigns, they have pushed these boundaries. says US News. Jankowski gave a statement that his position had become “untenable”. Was this illegal activity part of what caused the rift? It IS, political, after all, so we’ll probably never know for sure. But breaking the law is definitely not on Santa’s “nice” list.

Just days ago, on Dec. 17, the Never Back Down chief strategist, Jeff Roe, also stepped down. Roe quit effective immediately. It is unclear the extent of Never Back Down’s role going forward after a wave of departures, including the exit of its CEO and its board chairman, Adam Laxalt, a former Nevada attorney general and one of DeSantis’ oldest friends in politics. Earlier this month, on the day DeSantis reached his goal of visiting all 99 Iowa counties, the super PAC dismissed three senior officials close to Roe in a move that confounded many people working there. Sounds like his friends may be bailing to avoid getting lumps from Santa themselves.

Should I even mention Mrs. DeSperate’s invitation for people to come vote in the Iowa caucus, even if they are not registered to vote there?? Seems that Casey is learning from the best of the Deep State cheats.

What IS clear is that Ron DeSantis is getting increasingly desperate as his campaign support is quitting on him. You’d think (I do, anyhow) that all that expensive Ivy League education, would have taught the guy to read. The handwriting is on the wall, and has been for some months, as DeGov continues to drop in the polls. But the Yalie named Ron, just cannot seem to read it. More proof that higher education is often useless in real life.

I KNOW that neither Santa nor God will forgive Governor DeSantis for his treatment of the J6 families in his state, until he comes clean and asks forgiveness. Nor, for the head-fake legislation on medical “freedom: and election “integrity”. Lots of us never will.

Speaking of election integrity, MUCH more on Florida voting machines is coming next. Know how we’re all told “they’re not connected to the internet”? Yeah. Stay tuned.

American Democide 2024

By Lex Greene

December 19, 2023

Why was J6 declared an “insurrection” when even the FBI investigation concluded that there was no evidence of any such thing? Why have the Nazi global elites labeled every red-blooded American a “threat to democracy” and every Christian a “right-wing extremist?”

Why has the O’Biden Administration illegally flooded our country with more than 8-million military age males from more than a hundred foreign toilets, including the terrorist hotbed in the Middle East, while causing international conflict with Russia, China, North Korea, and the Middle East?

Why are millions of American kids swarming the streets of our cities in support of known terror groups Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad? When did every Poison Ivy League college in the USA become run by far-left extremist female lesbians, now staffed by more than 96% of whom are proud far-left extremists? These people are true parasites…

Why has the Democrat Party spent millions of taxpayer dollars and eight years in an unprecedented “get Trump” witch hunt intended to take out a political opponent using outright lies and bogus charges in an endless and baseless attack on the most popular political figure since Reagan?

Why are the Obama’s producing scare-films, or are they “predictive programming films,” like “LEAVE THE WORLD BEHIND” and the Spring 24 blockbuster “CIVIL WAR?”

Like the Obama’s said in their C quality movie, “it’s easiest to take over a country from within, in three simple stages” …

  1. Isolate the people (CV19)
  2. Synchronized Chaos (health, economic, ideological, religious, class warfare, lawfare)
  3. coup d’état – Civil War – collapse (the end)

The simple truth is a quiet coup d’état of the United States Federal Government took place on January 20, 2009. Since that day, the USA was put through a systematic “fundamental change” by way of numerous unconstitutional policies, most of them Executive Orders. Kenyan Barack Hussein Obama did exactly what he said he was going to do… “fundamentally transform America.”

He also built his “citizen army” in BLM and ANTIFA, both of them funded and commanded by DNC international money laundering outfit, ACT BLUE, created by Obama & Co. in 2004, having raised over $12-billion in international laundered funds aimed at destroying the USA since.

For four brief years, Trump threw a monkey wrench in their maniacal plan to destroy America. But failing to “drain the swamp” on arrival, Trump was soon eliminated from the equation by way of the most unlawful election cycle in human history. Trump was flushed out of the White House by the global elites in charge of both Obama and Biden.

Massive evidence of the 2020 theft was everywhere, despite all who falsely claim no evidence exists. Over 70 attempts to present that evidence in a court were turned away at the door due to an alleged “lack of legal standing” to enter the court. State Elections Laws were violated in all 50 states in 2020 and 2022!

The answer to all of this and much more, is a preparation of the United States for final collapse in what can only be called Democide.

“Democide is the murder of any person or people by their government, including genocide, politicide, and mass murder. Democide is not necessarily the elimination of entire cultural groups but rather groups within the country that the government feels need to be eradicated for political reasons and due to claimed future threats.”

The Clinton, Obama, and Biden regimes are by far the three most criminally traitorous and dangerous families to ever enter the halls of government in the USA. But a significant portion of US society is no longer able to even tell what gender they are, much less properly identify good from evil. So, they will continue to vote themselves and everyone else into chains, with the help of millions of illegal voters.

Our government and the global elites who control them have set a timer on the end of the USA, and they have caused every ill facing our nation today, with grave intent. That timer is set for 2024…

All of this hell on earth could have been avoided in 2008 if Americans had enforced just one simple clause in Article II of the US Constitution, the natural-born Citizen clause…

  • “As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.”
  • “The country of the fathers is therefore that of the children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent.”
  • “in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth, and not his country.”

ALL others are blatantly constitutionally ineligible to occupy the Oval Office, PERIOD! Obama, Harris, Haley, Cruz, Rubio, Ramaswamy, and other frauds.

But it’s not just the USA. They have done the same to countries all over the world in a maniacal plot to eliminate a vast majority of human beings and meld every once sovereign nation into a global commune under their total fascist control.

For eight years, Obama tested his plot across the Middle East toppling six of seven governments in his so-called “Arab Spring” operations, wherein he used “free Obama phones” to ignite “organic uprisings” backed and commanded by his administration. The same system is used to direct and mobilize BLM, ANTIFA, and now millions of illegals pouring into the USA at all borders.

How did you think millions of pro-Palestinian flags, t-shirts, and posters were ready to hit the streets on college campuses all around the world in under 24-hours from the October 7th attack on Israel? Only possible under the guidance of the great community organizer… Barack Hussein Obama.

The young people today do not know that all forms of totalitarianism — Marxism, Maoism, Leninism, Stalinism, Communism, Socialism, et al; are forms of fascism. They have been Pavlov trained that freedom is fascism. They believe that government is the solution to their every problem, when in reality, government is the source of every problem.

They claim to oppose racism while acting out in the most racist fashion possible on a daily basis. Young Americans can’t possibly be any more backwards than they are, and even worse, they are trained to not listen to people with a lot more experience and wisdom than them.

All the way back in 2008, when Hillary Clinton was a “sure thing” DNC nominee for President, the globalist plan was eight years of Hillary, followed by eight years of Obama…sixteen years to finish off the USA, ending in 2024.

But global powers advanced the nobody from nowhere to become the DNC nominee for President instead, a foreign agent and US imposter they held total control over, Barack Hussein Obama. In his eight years, he successfully fundamentally transformed America. Millions of Americans knew it and had had enough of the DC cabal, enough to elect a non-politician to turn the tide in 2016.

But the swamp was simply too deep and wide. They tried to remove Trump on arrival via the 25th Amendment and failed. They tried to eliminate him with two baseless impeachments and failed. So, they removed him by way of the most fraudulent and illegal election cycle in all of human history and the entire world knows it.

They have since chased Trump and his family in every failed legal process available in an effort to prevent the most popular political figure on earth from seeking office again, and they are still failing, because there is no basis for their witch hunt.

As for the so-called GOP challengers, DeSantis, Haley and Ramaswamy, along with the other losers, they all know 2020 was stolen from Trump, the GOP, and the American people. So, why are they running against Trump, instead of working to make sure he is re-elected?

If any of them were what they want voters to think they are, they would have worked to expose 2020, and would be supporting Trump and his 100-million voters today. But they aren’t, they are just more WEF members of the global cabal in current control of our country.

What we face now is democide 2024… the extreme global left will not back up or back down without being forced to back down.

Are there still enough real Americans for the task ahead?

Everything Is Connected

By Karen Schoen

December 18, 2023

Have you heard to the new scheme by the corporate elite to own and control us?

The SEC is going to end the public comment period on January 2, 2024 to allow Natural Asset Companies (NACs) to be on the stock exchange. Read this very important article and join us on Wed. Dec 20 at 1-347-857-4364.

at 7PM EST, 6PM CST, 5PM MST, 4PMPST Learn how to stop this treason on America.

12 Years ago, we started a group called the Agenders – dedicated to educating and ending UN Agenda 21. Their goal has never changed following Marx and Islam they believe PRIVATE PROPERTY OWNERSHIP MUST END. Over the years the same Agenda has been presented under new names. The Agenda is a total lie. The goal is to depopulate the planet and own and control all private property as well as all means of production and distribution of all human activity. Read their own words:

Maurice Strong former UN Secretary General –Oil Billionaire –stated: “Land, because of its unique nature and the crucial role it plays in human settlements, cannot be treated as an ordinary asset, controlled by individuals and subject to the pressures and inefficiencies of the market. Private land ownership is also a principal instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to social injustice; if unchecked, it may become a major obstacle in the planning and implementation of development schemes. Social justice, urban renewal and development, the provision of decent dwellings and healthy conditions for the people can only be achieved if land is used in the interests of society as a whole.”

David Rockefeller, formed Trilateral Commission with one goal

This unfinished Rockefeller agenda became Agenda 21/2030 calling for A New World Order. First aim was depopulation using Climate Change.

David Rockefeller’s Dream: Global Governance through Climate Change

This article is a great explanation of the Agenda and  the treachery and deceit these people have for the population. It is a must read. ” Agenda 21 Chapter 5 almost lets the cat out of the bag, blaming the growth of world population for “placing increasingly severe stress on our planet.” Chapter 7 calls for an end to private property, claiming that “social justice … can only be achieved if land is used in the interests of society-as-a-whole.”

Maurice Strong who worked with Rockefeller mentored Klaus Schwab, Chairman of the World Economic Forum of “you will own nothing and be happy” fame.   Schwab was a student of Globalists, David Rockefeller, and Henry Kissinger. To speed up depopulation, Kissinger wrote the secret 1974, U.S. National Security Study Memorandum 200, which called for abortion on demand, widespread birth control, and sterilization to stem global fertility rates and “overpopulation.”

They must cripple the west and any freedom the people have. They can not have America as an example for other countries to want. They must get all government agencies using the same lies. Computer models not facts are use to prove their lies. Globalists are always on the attack. They never stop. The attack now is the American economy.  America must be forced into debt, fossil fuel America’s power must be demonized and shut down. Unreliable electricity that can be controlled by your smart meter is their answer.  Corporations now run by nonsense regulations and incompetent Affirmative Action graduates focus on DIE and ESG not on making a quality product. Stakeholder capitalism forces the corporation to consider “public welfare before individual gain.”   Sustainability programs for “climate change” will do nothing except shift wealth to the wealthy putting others out of business as they can not comply. Schwab signed an agreement with the UN in 2019 to expedite the Agenda.

The middle class will be decimated. They will be unable to meet the expensive demands. They will be watched, surveilled, monitored constantly. Wrong words, actions of them and their families will cause fines and lack of mobility or services.  We will be issued social credits in order to make any purchase. We will not be able to leave our 15 minute city without permission. This is not a joke. globalists are serious. Once CBDC and disarmament are in place say goodbye to freedom and liberty.

The true goals of Agenda 21/2030, in 1991, Maurice Strong wrote in a report for the UN’s Conference on Environment and Development: “Current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class — high meat intake, use of fossil fuels, home and workplace air-conditioning and suburban housing — are not sustainable.”  He forgot to say, for you that is, I will still enjoy what I choose. Notice he said MiddleClass not UpperClass.  Remember Obama told an African Town Hall that they can’t have Air Conditioning, car or big house, he meant it.

Their newest scheme to destroy America and put Americans in bondage is called Natural Asset Company (NAC).  The Wall Street elite solicited the unelected SEC to form a new corporation that can solicit invertors (worldwide) to buy American land and natural resources. The goal is to leave the land undeveloped so that they can offset carbon credits and save the planet. BS.  Remember, they will have, you won’t.

Karen Bracken’s Truth Bomb has a great description

THE THREAT OF ESG (Envrionment-Social-Governance) – this is VERY important information. ESG is bad enough but have you heard of Natural Asset Companies. NACs are a new form of ESGs which to me were just a new form of the old B Corporations? NACs will hold the rights to “ecosystem services,” or the benefits people receive from nature, such as food, pollination, tourism, or clean water; such global benefits are valued at an estimated $125 trillion annually. They all use the climate change hoax but the real reason for these schemes is to make money and steal our freedom and liberty. As soon as people catch on to their devious unconstitutional schemes they change the name. With some states backing away from ESGs in rolls NACs (which have been around for a couple of years now). They are all wrapped together for total fascism in America. Learn about ESG, NAC and Benefit Corporations (B Corp) – It is now very obvious why Gates is buying up farm land….MONEY. The SEC is going to close he comment period on January 2, 2024 to allow NACs to be on the stock exchange. PLEASE call your US Rep and US Senators and demand they vote NO on allowing NACs to trade on the stock exchange. PLEASE call your US Rep and US Senators and demand they vote NO on allowing NACs to trade on the stock exchange. I created a power point about 10 years ago on Benefit Corporations. But all 3 are doing the same thing but just in different arenas. At the end of the day they will own and control everything. 42 min. VIDEO

Join us on Wed. Dec 20 at 1-347-857-4364 or on at 7PM EST, 6PM CST, 5PM MST, 4PM PST learn how to stop this treason on America.

The SEC limited the comment period for the proposed rule and is set to make a decision by January 2, 2024.  Immediate Action is needed!

The Constant Battle Against Constant Lies

By Cliff Kincaid

December 18, 2023

I was a partner with AIM founder Reed Irvine for several decades and documented through the AIM Report and several books the “misdeeds” of our Big Media establishment. He taught me a lot. Unfortunately, media bias has gotten worse, not better, and even infects such one-time “conservative” outlets as the Drudge Report.  It also infects so-called “business” outlets such as Bloomberg, known for fancy charts and graphs about the economy. I get their emails and never cease to be amazed at the lies the various Bloomberg reporters spew out, as if nobody notices or cares. They must think people take them seriously.

Consider this one:

“Republicans in the US House of Representatives voted to formally authorize an impeachment inquiry into Biden without any evidence of wrongdoing. Democrats contend the unprecedented move is being driven by a twice-impeached Donald Trump in an effort to muddy the waters ahead of an election year. The Republican frontrunner, who has threatened to abuse power and retaliate against opponents if he returns to the White House, faces four felony prosecutions, any one of which could land him in prison upon conviction.”

There are so many lies in this paragraph, part of the “Weekend Reading” from Bloomberg,  that it’s almost impossible to know where to start.

The authors of these lies were probably educated in the “interpretative” school of journalism, popularized by Marxist Curtis MacDougall, or the Walter Duranty school of journalism, named after the Marxist mole at the New York Times who covered-up Stalin’s crimes against Ukraine.

The idea that the impeachment inquiry suffers from a lack of evidence is perhaps the biggest lie of all, stemming from the apparent inability of these Bloomberg reporters to comprehend the meaning of the “Big Guy” in Hunter Biden’s schemes and Biden’s service to the Chinese and the Russians.

The corruption is evident. Call it bribery or influence peddling. The evidence shows that Hunter used Joe’s name to obtain millions of dollars. The schemes constitute impeachable offenses based on any objective standard.

If it was all so innocent, why the cover-ups, as documented by the whistleblowers and Biden business partners?  All of this is now unraveling.

I’m amazed that it has taken the Republicans this long to get moving. Biden’s high crimes and misdemeanors, as defined in the Constitution, include much more than his pandering to China. He is also conducting criminal activities regarding the open border.  Even some elected Democrats are blowing the whistle on that.

Leaving aside Hunter’s schemes, the open border is itself a basis for impeachment and conviction. Even Senate Republicans are coming to understand this fact.

The “unprecedented” impeachment of Biden is only “unprecedented” because it is the first such inquiry. But that doesn’t make it unprecedented in some sinister way. It only means the Republicans are getting around to something that is already apparent to tens of millions of Americans – Biden is selling out America to our enemies, and that one basis of the impeachment inquiry is the ever-changing lie about his “financial” involvement in Hunter’s schemes.

Getting to the bottom of these lies is, according to Bloomberg, an exercise in “muddying the waters.”

The “twice-impeached” President Trump was not convicted. Trump’s alleged threat to “abuse power” is another lie. He has vowed to use presidential and executive powers, all of them legal under the powers he is given.  The alleged “threat” to “retaliate” is a reference to using the same powers and legal tactics against his opponents that they have used against him. That’s justice.

The Bloomberg “reporters” fail to mention the flaws in any of the prosecutions against Trump, some of them brought by a “Special Counsel” trained by the United Nations in extra-legal tactics and who has a dubious record of having been overturned by the Supreme Court in a previous case. This is of course Jack Smith, whose wife did a film beatifying Michelle Obama. She donated to Biden.

Bloomberg doesn’t mention any of that, demonstrating their fealty to the Biden White House. They are not reporters. They are lapdogs for confirmed liars.

In the analysis we have at this point, Biden’s defenders note that no hard-core evidence has been produced so far that Biden personally cashed checks from foreign sources or personally in his own name received foreign money. But this doesn’t mean that he is clean and that impeachment is unwarranted. He didn’t have to personally cash a check. The money flowed to the Big Guy though various bank accounts. He has already been implicated in the financial dealings of his son, the front man in the scheme. The evidence is overwhelming and more than justifies the impeachment inquiry resolution.

What’s more, as noted, the open borders alone justify impeachment.

Biden is a confirmed liar. In a 2020 campaign debate, Biden declared he was the victim of Russian disinformation, citing the lies concocted by 51 former intelligence officers to dismiss Hunter’s laptop. The lies are piled in the lies, and these lies had an impact on the election, implicating the Deep State in the “Intelligence Community” in the ultimately successful effort to depose Trump. And then reporters like those at Bloomberg conveniently forget the lies and lie about those trying to get to the bottom of the lies.

On top of those lies, we have Biden hosting a friendly meeting with Chinese Communist dictator Xi on American soil! That alone should justify impeachment, especially after the China virus killed one million Americans and forced the nation to spend $10 trillion to protect and save the American economy from the ravages of the virus.

And yet, according to the Bloomberg reporters, there is no evidence for impeachment.

I wonder if they get handsomely paid for their lies.

Wondering why people lie for a living, I remember that, during my studies in college, I came to admire the Christian existentialist philosopher, Soren Kierkegaard, who wrote about the corruption in the Danish State Church. He declared that everyone knew privately that the system was rotten and corrupt but they would not say so publicly. “Just as one says that death has marked a man, so we recognize the symptoms which demand to be attacked. It is a battle against lies,” he said.

This is the situation today. The Big Media lie constantly. We have to say so publicly.

I have previously discussed how I came to believe that the press has become as corrupt as government. I noticed this trend when I went to college and studied a textbook, Interpretative Reporting, by Curtis MacDougall, a communist fellow-traveler who admired Castro and hated anti-communist Senator Joe McCarthy. That’s one reason why I went to work out of college monitoring the media for Accuracy in Media.

I got sick and tired of monitoring and exposing the lies in the media. But sometimes they are so egregious that we still have to take note, especially when they are gushing from a supposed respected outlet like Bloomberg.

This Immigration Invasion Will Not End Well: No Discernible National Identity

By Frosty Wooldridge

December 18, 2023

America in 2050: No discernible national identity and unique heritage to be proud of, other than being one of the first globalist non-nations.

How would you like to throw a Christmas party in your 3,000 square foot home, but instead of your 10 friends coming over, another 100 strangers show up at your door…and without knocking, barge into your home not only for the party, but for the rest of your life?  Not only that, they demand that you feed them, while providing them beds and bathrooms for their own use.  Their children expect to attend your schools with free education, free breakfasts and lunches…plus you get to pay for their transportation and medical costs.  How would you like that for a Christmas present?

Right now, that’s what’s happened at our Southern Border with Mr. Joe Biden, the pretend president, who possesses not a single, iota of a clue as to what he is doing to the United States of America. He and Congress have imported 10,000,000 third world refugees into America in the past 36 months. They are overwhelming our major cities. You can expect another 3 to 4 million more within the next 12 months of Biden’s dementia-plagued mind.

What’s happening across America cannot and will not be good for American citizens. It’s a full-scale invasion costing you billions upon billions of dollars in welfare. It’s a full-scale invasion that will alter the course of American history, negatively and drastically.

My friend and colleague Leon Kolankieowicz told it to me this way, “I see such strong parallels between the mindsets in Canada and California; California is basically America’s Canada when it comes to a “liberal”  worldview, including ostensibly “generous” views of immigrants and a “welcoming” attitude towards mass immigration high levels and/or open borders with no end in sight, i.e., as a permanent policy fixture, and on the part of most or many whites in particular, a deep sense of “white guilt” that colors their worldviews and policy preferences.

“And who is Gavin Newsom but Justin Trudeau with an Anglo surname?  Handsome, superficial, glib, hip, woke, white dudes and intellectual light-weights from their respective political dynasties.

“But, as many may know, California’s population, after having exploded super-exponentially from under 2 million in 1900 to 34 million in 2000, and then approaching 40 million in the last decade, has actually declined in the last three years.

“If this were from vastly reduced immigration and stable, replacement-level birth rates we could declare victory and go home, but no, no, no, it’s not that at all.  Instead, mass immigration into California and the country as a whole continues virtually unabated even before Biden’s puppeteers erased the Southern Border, but it is now accompanied by a mass exodus of the working and middle classes of all races and ethnic groups OUT of the state, and into The Rest of the West.

“So Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Idaho, Colorado, and even Texas and Florida are all filling up with hordes of ex-Californians fleeing the traffic, crime, sprawl, depressed wages, homelessness, and unaffordable housing, in essence, a quality of life and standard of living degraded by overpopulation and the mass immigration that caused it, i.e., the perhaps inevitable consequences of an inability of liberals to “just say no” to mass immigration.

“Just this month, for example, NumbersUSA.com released a new study on urban sprawl in Idaho, and here was the cover of our publication:  Californicating Idaho by Roy Beck and Leon Kolankiewicz.  Is Idaho ready to house another 1 or 2 million people?

“Along the same lines, I wanted to point out these three recent videos concerning the former Dominion of the North, aka Canada, which the Liberal Party under Trudeau has punished with the highest rate of immigration in the Western World.  It’s a central feature of their treacherous scheme to deracinate Canada and transmogrify it into a “post-national” factory and flophouse with no discernable national identity and unique heritage to be proud of, other than being the first globalist non-nation and plaything of the globalist ruling class.

“As a Canadian colleague Madeline Weld writes: ‘I’d prefer Canada’s immigration to be 12,000 ordinary people next year rather than 1.2 million geniuses. The 12,000 will cause less ecological damage and contribute less to housing unaffordability than the 1.2 million geniuses.  Mass immigration kills housing affordability which hurts vulnerable people, first and foremost recent immigrants. A mass immigration policy is a brutal neo-liberal policy that seeks to commoditize people, with business calling the shots with the government as a front.’”

I don’t know about you, but ask yourself if you want another 10, 20 or 50 million refugees added to America?  Why would you want them added to your “house”?  Why would you want your children faced with 50 different languages in their classrooms?  How would you deal with a dozen different religions demanding their own Christmas celebration?  How will you pay for millions of refugees who suck off our welfare systems to the detriment of our own citizens?  How will you deal with your neighborhoods becoming SO “multicultural” that you no longer enjoy your own American Culture?  What are you doing to stop this massive invasion of your “house” by illegal aliens?  Do you understand the enormous environmental consequences as to water, energy, resources and quality of life?

You might best be voting U.S. House and Senate members who want to save your house, your home, your country and your children.

Housing crisis vs. immigration: Is it time to slow things down?

The Systematic Killing of America, Part 6 of 6

By Reverend Glynn Adams

December 17, 2023

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children.” (Hosea 4:6)

What is killing America? It is not Klaus Schwab, Barack Obama, our politicians, the wealthy demonic occults, or the Democratic Party – they are but instruments of a demonic globalists world system just faithfully obeying their god, Satan. What is killing America are the ones who claim to be followers of Jesus Christ who are disobedient to their God because they lack the knowledge of the Word of God to be obedient and resist those who are exalting themselves against the Word of God and capturing this nation to the ways of Satan.

Straying from the Word of God, we have developed the doctrines and traditions of men and we have become religious. For example, the Holy Spirit moved Martin Luther through the Word of God as he received a fresh word from God for his day. As this “new light” was spreading, more and more people saw the same truths that Luther had seen. These people gathered around this light -this truth – and treated it as if it was the whole gospel.

The result was the formation of a new religious structure, both in doctrine and organization, which later became the Lutheran Denomination. Generally speaking, those who followed Luther will accept only the light he had. If someone from another denomination tried to tell the Lutheran Denomination some new truth they received, they would not accept it. Why? Lutherans only receive what their denomination say and the same is for all denominations. The amazing truth is that if Martijn Luther were alive today, he would be diligently seeking for more light from the Word of God.

When people look at the Word of God from the Baptist, Lutheran, Methodist, Pentecostal or whatever religion point of view other than God’s point of view, they have tunnel vision. Tunnel vision causes them to gather around only a part of the Word of God rather than the whole counsel of God. They will also have a Pharisaical attitude of “we have all the light.”

Then their religious structure become an idol in their hearts. They cannot be led out of darkness or any change take place because they will not receive any truth that conflicts with their denominational doctrine or traditions. This is exactly how an idol in someone’s heart causes a veil to be over their face today. They do not have spiritual eyes to see, or ears to hear and they cannot understand God’s Word.

The Pharisees loved their religious system more than they loved Jesus when He came to them. Therefore, the words Jesus spoke could have no place in their hearts; their religious structures had their hearts. If they loved God and if Jesus had their hearts, they would have received the whole counsel of God’s Word and could have been led out of darkness.

However, they could not receive any new light that conflicted with their doctrines because they thought they already had all the light. Therefore, they did not have ears to hear, eyes to see, nor could they understand any spiritual truth that Jesus taught because their religious system had become their whole source of truth.

In America today, most people in these denominations cannot be led out of spiritual darkness because their hearts have become hardened by resisting God’s Word. Jesus said to the Pharisees, “Why do you not understand my speech? Even because you cannot hear My word.” (John 8:43) At this hour in America, many cannot hear because they took part of the Word of God and built a religious structure that had captured their hearts. They could not receive any new light because the words Jesus spoke would not fit their religious structure.

The religious structures in America today have become an expression of a form of godliness through their traditions, doctrines, and rituals rather than becoming an expression of Jesus Christ which is true Godliness. These structures lead people to make a commitment to the structure rather than to Jesus. Then the structure becomes an idol in their heart.

It does not really matter how the church members live or whether they have unforgiveness one toward another. It only matters that they show up for the religious service and tithe. When this happens in a congregation, a spirit of sleep and darkness covers them. The Spirit of God can have no control over their lives. They are lords over their own lives and live in spiritual darkness.

Jesus said, “This people honor Me with their lips but their heart is far from Me. Howbeit in vain do they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the traditions of men.” (Mark 7:6-8) If you love fleshly traditions and carnal doctrines, your heart becomes hardened and you resist the true Word of God. If Christ had all of your heart, you would come to the whole counsel of God’s Word and obey it.

Hear what the Spirit is saying to you: It is only through God’s Word showing us the true motives of our heart that we are ever able to turn from sin and walk in righteousness. It is only as the Word divides spirit from soul and flesh that we can learn to hear the Holy Spirit speak to us. We can then turn aside from soulish and fleshly religion and walk before the Lord in holiness and purity, putting to death the deeds of the flesh.

“As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance. But as He who has called you is holy, so be you holy in all manner of conversation. Because it is written, “Be you holy for I am holy.” (1 Peter 1:14-16)

In religious structures throughout America, we have been lied to by the pastors. They have told us that to follow Jesus Christ is comfortable, easy, non-threatening, and safe. That is a ball-faced lie straight from the pits of hell. While the pastors have lied to us, Jesus was straight forward about following Him.

“Enter by the narrow gate, for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction and MANY are those who enter by it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life and FEW are those who find it. (Matthew 7:13-14). Better learn the difference between MANY and FEW!!!

Jesus said this about His Word: “Therefore everyone who hears these Words of Mine and acts upon them, is building his house on the rock and when the storms of life come, it will stand.” When you read the Word of God and do what it says, you are safe. “Therefore, everyone who hears these Words of Mine and does not act upon them, is building his house on the sand and when the storms of life come, great will be its fall.” When you read the Word of God and do not act upon it (you disregard or ignore the Word you read and do not act on the Word), Great will be your fall and your love ones!!! HATH GOD REALLY SAID? Yes, we just read it!!! You can’t abide in Christ unless you read and act on the Word of God!!! Who says following God is easy?

Jesus said in Matthew 6:33, “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Read Matthew 6:25-32, and you will see what things will be added to you. HATH GOD REALLY SAID? If you seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, God will add all these things to you. However, if you do not seek first the Kingdom of God, then these things will be subtracted from you. My friends, what is coming to America, you cannot afford for one minute to ignore the Kingdom of God and have provisions from God subtracted from you!!!

So following Jesus is easy and comfortable. You are not reading the Bible and your pastor is lying to you. Jesus did not have an easy time on the earth and neither will you and neither did His disciples in the First Century. In Matthew 10:16-42, “I will send you out like lambs among wolves, men will deliver you up to court on account of Me, you will be hated (not might, perhaps when it is 85 degrees but the promise is you will be hated) because of My name but the one who endures to the end will be saved. When they persecute you in one city, go to the next.

Jesus said a disciple is not above his teacher. If they called Jesus names, they will call you names. Do not fear men who can only kill the body but rather fear Him who can kill the body and cast your soul into hell. But whosoever shall deny Me before men, I will also deny him before My Father who is in heaven. Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace but a sword.

He who loves father and mother, son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. He who does not take up his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. He who has found his life shall lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake shall find it. He who receives you receives Me and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward and he who receives a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward.

Paul said in 2 Corinthians 4:11, “For we who live are constantly being delivered over to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.” Paul continues in 2 Corinthians 4:16, “Therefore we do not lose heart but though our outer man is decaying yet our inner man is being renewed day by day. For momentary light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison, while we look not at the things which are seen but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal but the things which are not seen are eternal”

Now I want to end this article with something we seldom talk about in the life of a believer who is faithfully and obediently following the LORD Jesus Christ. If you are without understanding, you will never believe or understand that Jesus is more interested in your “character” than your “comfort.” “Many will be purged, purified and refined; but the wicked will act wickedly and none of the wicked will understand but those who have insight will understand.” (Daniel 12:10)

Every person that is a true follower of Jesus Christ has been or will be “broken” by Jesus Christ in one way or the other if you recognize it. That is another purpose of the cross in your life to conform you into His image and for you to die to your flesh so His spirit may prevail in your life and not your flesh – your old nature from Satan.

God will break you to train you to live by His power and not your human effort, to get you to depend on Him and not your strength, to get you to see things from His point of view and not your denomination. He breaks you to test you, “Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result that you may be mature, and complete, lacking nothing.” (James 1:2-4 and 1 Peter 1:6-7)

“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the surpassing greatness of the power may be of God and not from ourselves; we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body.” (2 Corinthians 4:7-10)

We have this treasure in us but we must be broken for the treasure to come out. Religious people or nominal followers will never know their treasure. We serve others with our treasure after we are broken. I once heard of a lady who needed healing but she could not stand the lady who had the treasure of healing. What a waste over something petty. Jesus said we are to love even our enemies and you fulfill the law of God by loving Jesus with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself. If you are a follower of Jesus, you are to forgive everyone and love them as you love yourself. The lady never got her healing and she perished over a lack of knowledge!!!

The entire Bible is a manual for war, breaking, dying to self, persecution, getting and being prepared, becoming humble, repentance, renewing the mind, maturing us, and on and on with end. Next time some pastor says that following Jesus is comfortable, non-threatening, easy, and without pain, you rebuke him in the Name of Jesus and tell him he is lying and does not know what he is talking about. You better leave that pastor because Jesus said you will become like your teacher – you will become like your pastor while Jesus desires you to become like Him and His character!!!!!

God has an abundant life for every follower of Jesus Christ but we must cooperate with Him in our spiritual growth and maturity. Jesus must have our heart and not our denominations. There are no shortcuts in this process and it is long and painful. We will never enjoy the fulness of our inheritance if we drop out or turn to religion. Remember, Jesus said, “Those who endure to the end shall be saved.” We must learn, you are either saved or lost; there is no middle ground!!! We are in and faithful to the death or we are not in at all!! A tremendous number of religious people in America are under the current judgment and the judgment that is getting ready to come!!!

Read “The Coming Battle”  written during the civil war, how the socialist European banksters came to America, infiltrated influential universities, collages and seminary schools .… By reading this book you will better understand the events taking place today. There is nothing new under the sun. History is repeating itself. Different players, the same game. World domination.

It is time to take a serious look at what it means to be a real follower of the LORD Jesus Christ, LORD of Lords and KING of Kings. The religion killed Jesus and it will kill you!!! God bless, I remain His warrior and watchman, Glynn Adams (Thanks to the late Milton Green, “The Great Falling Away Today”, the late Leonard Ravenhill, “Why Revival Tarries”, James Mahoney, “Journy into Fulness”, and a podcast by Frank Viola, “Two Anointings.”

Thank God for Jesus

By Rob Pue

December 17, 2023

We’ve been living in days of very bad news for a very long time now, and every day it seems to get worse and more intense. Our country — and the world — has become something I never thought I’d live to see. I suppose every generation experiences some of that as they reminisce about the “good old days.” And in retrospect those “good old days” were not as good as we probably remember them, but again I never thought I’d see the day when _____________ (fill in the blank): there are plenty of options to choose from.

But today I want to try to put all of that stuff aside.  Quite honestly, I’m tired of it.  Sick to death of the “new normal,” the mandates, the commands, the New World Order, the Great Reset, the Jab, the depopulation agenda of the globalists, the lies of the mainstream media, the filth of Hollywood and the censorship of the truth.  I will need to get back to reporting on what’s happening soon enough.  But this week, as a Christian, I’ll be celebrating Christmas with my family.  And even THAT is controversial now.

After this message goes out, I’ll undoubtedly get plenty of flack from well-meaning “Christians” who don’t celebrate Christmas and feel the need to correct me.  As always happens, I’ll be told it’s a pagan holiday, that we were never told, in Scripture, to celebrate the birth of our Savior, that it’s a “Catholic thing,” even that it’s satanic.  It’s not bad enough that most retail stores have now banned the word “Christmas” or that God Himself has been thrown out of every public institution.  Cities ban nativity scenes from public property.  The White House doesn’t allow Christian-themed decorations on the official Christmas tree. The very use of the greeting “Merry Christmas” will draw the ire of many in our post-Christian America now.  It never used to be this way.

When I was growing up, we always looked forward to this time of year.  It was a wonderful time of year, starting with Thanksgiving.  I remember how special those family Thanksgivings were.  My parents had six children; three girls and then three boys.  I’m the second to the youngest, number five out of six.  By the time I came along, all my sisters were all pretty much grown up and moved away.  Thanksgiving was a special time when everyone would be home again and I looked forward to my sisters and their husbands joining us.  My Mom was an amazing cook, and I remember the smells of the turkey in the oven, the stuffing, the pumpkin pie.   The fun we had when the family was all together.

And I remember that the Christmas season would really begin right after Thanksgiving.  There was no such thing as “Black Friday,” — or “Cyber Whatever” — when I was a kid.  But right after Thanksgiving we’d start spending all of our Saturdays at church.  That was when us kids would start practicing for the annual Sunday School Christmas program.  Usually, it was a play depicting the Christmas story.  Each of us kids would play a different part.  Being a part of the Christmas program taught us many things, not the least of which was diligent Bible study and learning to experience and teach God’s Word ourselves, as we would study and then act out the parts, and read Scripture aloud to the grown-ups in the audience.

When it was over, the church gave everyone a special gift bag of Christmas treats.  I remember there was always a popcorn ball and always an orange, among other candies and sweets.  The church Christmas program was always a centerpiece of the entire Christmas season.  My own kids took part when they were young.  But then, over the years, it became more and more difficult for the church to find grown ups willing to organize and put the Christmas program together.  Eventually they quit doing them altogether.  It’s a shame that kids today will never experience that.  It’s even sadder to think that most kids today don’t have a clue as to Who Jesus is or understand their need for the Savior, why He came to Earth, what He taught us, why He was crucified, died, was buried, rose again and where He is now — and that He most definitely IS coming again soon.

We also celebrated Christmas in my public school.  Students performed an annual Christmas Concert.  This was different from the church’s program, because there were songs about Santa Claus and Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer.  But there were ALSO songs like “Silent Night,” “Joy to the World,” “O Holy Night,” and “Hark the Herald Angels Sing.”  Nobody ever complained about the Christian Christmas carols — much less sued the school district over them — and there was no confusion that the celebration at hand was, indeed, Christmas.  Imagine that.  Today even Linus is censored and cancelled — no longer allowed to speak the true meaning of our celebration in “A Charlie Brown Christmas.”

One of my favorite memories was, every year, about the first week in December or so, my Dad would bring home the Sears Wish Book.  How fun was that?!  Of course, you would pass right over the front half of the catalog, because that was all clothes and boring stuff.  But in the second half… now THAT was where the fun began!  I remember many times, laying on the floor in my footie pajamas, paging through the Wish Book and seeing all the neat things that looked like fun.  And my parents would make sure there were good things for each of us kids under the tree every year.

And us kids also took what meager funds we had available and either made or bought modest gifts for our parents and each other as well.  Even though we were kids, we knew what it was to be thoughtful and generous, and to do nice things for one another.  That it was more blessed to give than to receive. We received our Christmas gifts with gratitude and thankfulness.  And they were good gifts too….  fun things.  Craft projects, model airplanes, science kits, things that helped us learn, be creative, productive and responsible.

When I look at the way kids experience Christmas today, I’m sad for them.  Christ has been all but totally removed.  If they somehow happen to hear about Jesus and ask their parents about it, the parents, in most cases, are not even able to tell them what Charlie Brown knew.  No more Sears Wish Book either.  Today, kids make their lists on their smart phones using Amazon Prime. And the gifts they ask for are not wholesome, creative or learning tools.  They’re usually the most expensive, newest digital device or video game on the market… these things don’t encourage learning or creativity or productivity.  They just dumb the kids down further into a mind-numbed cyber stupor.

It’s not a whole lot better even if you’re a regular church-goer.  Christmas celebrations in churches run the gamut from such nonsense as “Ugly Christmas Sweater Sunday,” to pastors dressing up like Santa Claus and twisting Scripture to include the man in the red suit in the Nativity, to big theatrical productions with rock bands, fog machines and laser lights.

Public schools can no longer include traditional Christmas Carols in their “Holiday Celebrations.”  For that matter, they cannot even suggest there ever was such a person as Jesus Christ.  Of course, they have no problem forcing kids to recite the Five Pillars of Islam or sending them on a field trip to a mosque.  But sing “Silent Night?”  Mention the name of Jesus?  How intolerant and bigoted!

If kids seem different today, it’s because they are.  How could they not be, growing up in this sort of atmosphere, where God is removed from everything in public, and shunned by all?  Unless, of course, “God” is defined as “allah,” or perhaps, “The Force.”  Today, they open their presents and complain they didn’t get better things; or more things or the RIGHT things…  Instead of being thankful for what they’ve received, they’re thankful what they received came with “gift receipts,” so they can return them for cash.   And then, when all the gifts have been opened, instead of relishing the warmth and love and togetherness of family, we have a group of people sitting in the same room, but each one tapping away on their Smart Phones, iPods, iPads, Kindles, tablets and laptops.  Nobody talking… all you hear is the  “tap,” “tap,” “tap,” of fingers hitting screens.  Heads down.  Like always.

Pious Christians look with disdain on the annual “naughty or nice list” to see which stores will say “Merry Christmas” to them and which ones won’t.  But it doesn’t change their shopping habits.  Not really.  Worst of all, most do virtually nothing at all to be salt and light in their communities the rest of the year.  Like the ungodly, they don’t speak of Jesus or serve as the hands and feet of Jesus throughout the year.  Most don’t even try.  To say His name out loud is actually an embarrassment to them!  When they see the atrocities committed by abortionists, they turn the other way.  When they see homosexuals redefining marriage, they see that as “politics.” “Ewww, so distasteful, I’m just not interested in POLITICS.”  And with more information available at our very fingertips than ever before in history, most Christians prefer to remain ignorant, while the world is turned upside down and inside out by New World Order globalists, and they obey satanic commands, dutifully wearing their face masks while standing in line with their kids to get yet another “jab” of poison.

Liberals and progressives love to talk about inclusiveness and tolerance.  When it comes to this time of year, one has said, “Why do I wish people ‘Happy Holidays?’  Because from November first to January 15th, there are approximately 29 holidays observed by seven of the world’s major religions, and I don’t think mine are the only ones that count.”

You see, in America today, we’ve become so “inclusive,” that we’re sensitive to everyone — except, of course, those bigoted Christians.  But what are these so-called “seven major world religions?”   Here’s a list: Buddhists, who celebrate “Bohdi Day.”  Never heard of it?  Me neither.   The followers of Kemetic Orthodoxy, the religion of ancient Egypt from 4500 BC. who celebrate “The Day of the Return of the Wandering Goddess.”  (I’m not making this stuff up, folks, this is what they list as being one of the most important celebrations and one of the world’s most major religions.  THIS IS WHY we must say “Happy Holidays!” and not “Merry Christmas”).

Then there are Muslims, who celebrate Eid al-Adha.  (The dates of Muslim holidays, however, change every year, because the Islamic calendar is based on phases of the moon; since they worship the mood god).  Then there are the Aboriginals and American Atheists and pagans who celebrate the Winter Solstice.  Of course Hannukah, celebrated by Jews, and though it sticks in their throats to say it, Christmas, celebrated by Christians.

Yes, I’m sad for the children of today, growing up without Jesus, or growing up with a “fake Jesus” as taught to them by so-called “progressive churches.”  We’ve lost our reverence for God, our awe for His Son and we’ve become so intimidated by a spirit of political correctness that we’ve trashed not only our own history and heritage but even our once-deeply-held Christian faith.  The true meaning of Christmas is not being passed on to our young generations.  In fact, it was lost a long time ago.  Is it any wonder that today, 39% of our young people, in homes all across this country, will be asking for Christmas presents that will help them celebrate their newly embraced “LGBT” or “transgender” identities?  Is it any wonder that many won’t gather with family at all if their loved ones aren’t fully ‘jabbed?’  Is it any wonder that even as families gather together in living rooms on Christmas Eve, they’ll be sitting six feet apart, wearing their masks — just to be safe?

Friends, I’m going to celebrate Christmas with my family, and continue to instill some of the wonderment and awe, and reverence I had as a child at Christmastime into the lives and hearts of my own children.  To me, the Ghosts of Christmas Past are fond memories of a simpler time, a more innocent time.  A time when God was God and it was OK to love Him, sing praises to Him and to thank Him for all the many gracious blessings He’s continued to shower us with — even as we sojourn here among a world of depraved minds.   I hope you do the same.  And hold your loved ones close.  Hug them.  Tell them you love them.   Reverence God and teach your children what the truth really is.  And in the new year, endeavor to make your lives count by being always in the service to the King of Kings.  We can never go back to yesterday, but we can teach our children again what “Normal” is like, and together we can look forward to the glorious return of our Savior, who really IS Christ the Lord — and the only answer to all the evil, wickedness, lies and nonsense this world continues to heap upon us.  Thank God for Jesus.

Only the Prince of Peace Can Bring True and Lasting Freedom

by Rolaant McKenzie

December 17, 2023

In the Star Trek: The Original Series episode, Day of the Dove (Season 3, Episode 7, 11/1/1968), a glowing entity composed of pure energy lures the USS Enterprise off its patrol route with a false distress call from a human colony on a nearby planet claiming to be under attack from an unknown vessel. Upon achieving orbit, no sign of any inhabited settlement could be found. To investigate further, a landing party including Captain Kirk, Dr. McCoy, Lieutenant Johnson, and Ensign Chekov transported to the planet’s surface. The glowing entity, lurking in the background out of sight, influenced the landing party to believe that one hundred men, women, and children were slaughtered, though no evidence of this could be seen.

Moments later, a Klingon ship appeared at the planet responding to a false distress call from a Klingon outpost. But upon arrival, the glowing entity caused the vessel to experience explosions and other damage that totally disabled it. Commander Kang of the Klingon ship beamed down to the planet with some of his crew and took Kirk and the landing party prisoner, believing him responsible for the damage to his ship and the deaths of 400 of his crew.

Kirk, under threat of death from Kang, authorized First Officer Spock on the bridge to beam the Klingons aboard the Enterprise, but he was able to tip him off through his communicator that they were in distress. Once on the Enterprise, the security team took the Klingons into custody and held them in the crew lounge. The surviving Klingons on the disabled ship were also beamed aboard the Enterprise.

Unbeknownst to the Klingons and the Enterprise crew, the glowing entity also came aboard the ship. It was able to block communication with Starfleet Command, send the ship hurtling towards the end of the galaxy at warp nine, create malfunctions on the ship’s infrastructure to trap above deck 38 Klingons and 38 Enterprise crew, create swords and other antique hand weapons for both sides in place of hand phasers, and exploit their animosities for one another to cause them to fight, yet not die from the injuries inflicted on each other.

Kirk and Spock later discovered the glowing entity and that it gained nourishment from feelings of hostility, hatred, and violence. Kirk reached out to Kang and persuaded him that in order to defeat the energy creature that held them all captive and thrived on their conflict, the fighting must cease. Kang agreed, and the hostilities ended. Both Kirk and Kang began to laugh and mock the entity which had appeared above them, causing its power to weaken and fade as it fled the ship.

The tactic of “divide and conquer,” illustrated in this story, has long been used by great powers of the past, such as the Greek and Roman empires, to exploit divisions between peoples in order to maintain control over them and their possessions. A more recent example of this is the domination and subsequent rule of India from 1757 until its independence in 1947, first through the British East India Company (EIC) and later directly under the British Crown.

Britain was able to manipulate the religious, social, and economic divisions and rivalries of the diverse peoples of India to gain first economic dominance over them, then political and judicial control. Over time, many Indians came to understand this and resented their foreign rulers. Their people and the country’s valuable resources were being exploited for the profit of Britain, not the welfare of the people of India.

This resentment eventually developed into the Indian Rebellion of 1857 (May 10, 1857 – November 1, 1858), where several factions of Indian society fought to overthrow British rule in their country through the EIC. One of the leading figures of this rebellion was Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi (November 19, 1828 – June 18, 1858), who became a national hero and symbol of resistance. However, one of the primary reasons the rebellion failed was because, though many Indians opposed the British, many fought for them, and the majority remained compliant with their rule.

Just over 51 years later, Indian lawyer and independence activist Mohandas K. Gandhi (October 2, 1869 – January 30, 1948) published a book called Indian Home Rule (1909). In it, he declared that British rule was established and maintained because of the cooperation of Indians. If Indians refused to cooperate, then British rule would collapse, and India would have its independence.

In the 1982 film Gandhi, a meeting took place between Gandhi, accompanied by other nationalist Indian leaders, and Lord Chelmsford, Viceroy of India for the British government, and his advisors. A prideful rhetorical question was posed to Gandhi, declaring that Britain would not simply relinquish control and walk out of India, to which he responded:

“Yes. In the end, you will walk out. Because 100 thousand Englishmen simply cannot control 350 million Indians if those Indians refuse to cooperate. And that is what we intend to achieve: peaceful, non-violent non-cooperation until you yourself see the wisdom of leaving, your Excellency.”

Gandhi recognized the “divide and conquer” tactics used among the peoples of India to maintain British rule over them, but he succeeded where Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi did not. He helped to achieve independence for his country not by raising armies to expel the British, but by convincing large portions of Indian society from a wide spectrum of religious and social backgrounds to adopt his philosophy of non-cooperation and non-violent resistance.

In the United States, we can see many examples of local, state, and federal government politicians and bureaucrats, both elected and unelected, pursuing policies that cause chaos, confusion, and animosity between people in order to maintain control over them and enrich themselves.

Proverbs 20:10 says, “Differing weights and differing measures, both of them are abominable to the LORD.” One of the forms of differing weights and measures employed to “divide and conquer” society is the elimination of equality under the law and the use of the legal — not justice — system to persecute political opponents and people with the “wrong” skin color or religious beliefs, and absolve their political allies or those who check the so-called correct “diversity” boxes of virtually any crimes they have committed.

Those managing this cruel system realize that eventually some of their victims will reach a breaking point and seek to retaliate against them, so they will engage in greater oppressive activities to provoke their victims to react violently. In doing so they seek to use any violent reaction as a pretext to crack down on dissent and exert greater control over everyone.

Do not take the bait and be goaded into actions that lead to defeat and greater slavery. It is far better and more effective to work together with neighbors and local leaders to peacefully nullify and not cooperate with any federal, state, or local unconstitutional edicts.

Matthew Trewhella, pastor of Mercy Seat Christian Church near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is the author of a book entitled The Doctrine of the Lesser Magistrates (2013), which promotes the teaching that when superior or higher ranking civil authorities make unjust or immoral laws or policies, the lower or lesser ranking civil authorities have both the God-given right and duty to refuse obedience to that superior authority.

One of many examples of where the principles of this book were successful involved a barber named Karl Manke of Owosso, Shiawassee County, Michigan. He was ordered in May 2020 by the governor to shut down his small business, his livelihood, under the guise of a state-wide medical emergency. His neighbors, Sheriff Brian Begole, and County Circuit Judge Matthew Stewart came to his aid and stood between Mr. Manke and the governor, refusing to comply with the unconstitutional and selectively enforced executive order that allowed big businesses, but not small ones, to remain open. Threats from the governor and attempts to pit local authorities against the people came to nothing because they peacefully stood together and refused to cooperate.

Eugen Wilhelm Schwab (1899-1982), worked as director of Escher Wyss AG, an industrial company that manufactured weapons for the Nazi regime, including attempts to develop nuclear weapons. It was the mercy and grace of God that his efforts to establish the worldwide rule of the Third Reich did not succeed.

His son, Klaus Martin Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF), along with his globalist partners, hope to succeed where his father failed by working to establish the global rule of the Fourth Reich, a dystopian antichrist kingdom of slavery, death, and destruction (Revelation 13). But thanks be to God, they will fail as well (Revelation 17-19).

Throughout the world, crises abound, including ethnic and religious conflicts, mass migration, famine, energy shortages, plagues, economic failure, and the looming threat of World War III. The WEF, United Nations, non-governmental organizations, and very powerful oligarchs generate these things to keep much of the people in the world distracted, divided, and under their influence as they work to bring about the Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).

Notwithstanding its benign-sounding words, SDG means to entrap people in digital IDs, currency, and cities; turn them into programmable cyborgs (transhumanism); destroy their ability to have families; and eliminate most of them through depopulation.

The global elite view the earth’s resources as theirs, and they wish to eliminate most of the world’s people from using them. They and the world leaders and organizations that follow them are inspired and energized by Satan, the deceiver of the world (Revelation 12:7-9). Because of his hatred of God, he uses them to destroy His creation, employing disharmony, confusion, and disorder.

The glowing energy entity in Star Trek and the British Empire in India aimed to keep those under their control alive and perpetually divided in order to enrich themselves indefinitely. The devil, through his globalist servants, seeks to keep us divided, not only to control and exploit us but also to destroy us.

It is right and good to push back and make inroads against efforts to bring in this dark night by working together with others to peacefully not cooperate with them, but this will not be enough for ultimate deliverance. Satan and those who serve him are extraordinary foes that seek our enslavement and destruction. Such enemies are too powerful for us to ultimately overcome, and we need an extraordinary Deliverer.

Approximately 700 years before the birth of Jesus, the prophet Isaiah wrote of this coming Deliverer:

“For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, on the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness from then on and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will accomplish this.” (Isaiah 9:6-7)

Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace, who taught that peacemakers and the meek are blessed because they would be considered sons of God and would inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5-9).

He came into the world, lived the perfect life we could not live, endured the wrath of God on behalf of sinners by dying on the cross, rose again on the third day, and is coming again to establish His own permanent government of peace.

Believe and trust in Jesus, for He is the only Deliverer who saves from the destruction of the devil and his kingdom, our sins against God and each other, and grants citizenship in His eternal kingdom of true joy, freedom, and peace.

Cancel Culture: Do you like Your Home? Do You Want to Keep It?

by Kathleen Marquardt

December 16, 2023

Do you like your home? Do you want to keep it? Your business?

It isn’t Halloween or April Fool’s Day, but you’d better be scared. The Supreme Court of the United States is hearing oral arguments on a case that reads like a trip to Dante’s hell. But if this case takes a wrong turn, we all will join Dante Alighieri there.

We have recently been warned that property taxes are going to go up, but there hasn’t been a mention that we are going to be paying taxes on monies that we might see for years or decades. Well, well, look at what is happening to the Moores.

David Catron’s article in The Spectator, “The Scariest SCOTUS Case This Term,” informs us of one of the evils our federal government is cooking (cooked?) up for us.

Tuesday morning, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments pursuant to a case in which Charles and Kathleen Moore argue that an obscure provision of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act is unconstitutional.

At issue is the “mandatory repatriation tax” (MRT) and a 13 percent stake owned by the Moores in a company that supplies low-cost equipment to small farmers in India. The couple has never received income from this stock because the company reinvests all its profits in the business. Historically, the IRS hasn’t taxed shareholder “earnings” until they receive dividends or sell their stock for capital gain. Yet, pursuant to the MRT, the Moores received a $14,729 tax bill on their share of company profits.

According to Amy Howe in SCOTUSblog, “… until 2017, nothing in U.S. tax laws authorized the federal government to tax a controlled foreign corporation’s foreign income unless and until that income came to the United States – for example, through a distribution to U.S. shareholders”.

The Moores sued the government on the grounds that the IRS violated the Sixteenth Amendment. They lost in federal district court and in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, as legal scholar Steven Calabresi explains at the Volokh Conspiracy.[1]

We’ve known for decades that the Ninth Circuit Court is almost beyond hope of ever coming down on the right side of the law. Yes, occasionally, they throw in a fair finding just to make people think they are unbiased.

The court of appeals concluded that realization is not a precondition for income, and so the Moores could be taxed on unrealized gains in wealth. That rationale is not limited to the Moores, or to the particular tax, which the court applied in their case. Rather, under the Ninth Circuit’s analysis, investors might be taxed on their unrealized capital gains in their Vanguard funds or their stock portfolios. Moreover, homeowners might be taxed on their unrealized capital gains in their houses and land (emphasis mine) … The Supreme Court should reverse the Ninth Circuit and restore the original, commonsense meaning of the Sixteenth Amendment.

Asking that SCOTUS reverses the Ninth Circuit is definitely in order. If this is allowed to stand, every homeowner and business owner may be looking at onerous “pie in the sky” taxes that may or may not ever be realized. This is so far out there it boggles the mind, yet how many people will ever hear of it? This “mandatory repatriation tax” is so egregious that one wonders how it was not noticed immediately when it was offered up – and then shut down. Who’s minding the store? And, remember, this came in Trump’s term.

To grasp the significance of Moore v. United States, it’s necessary to remember that the original Constitution didn’t permit income tax.[2] Article I, Section 9 prohibited direct taxes on individuals unless apportioned on the basis of the population of each state. The huge cost of the Civil War prompted Congress to pass the first income tax in 1862, but it was phased out after the war. Congress passed another income tax law in 1894, but the Supreme Court struck it down in 1895. The Sixteenth Amendment was passed by Congress in 1909 and ratified in 1913, and it does indeed bestow on Congress “the power to lay and collect taxes on income,” but it was not as clear as it could have been on the precise definition of “income.”

That issue was resolved in 1920, in Eisner v. Macomber, when the Supreme Court ruled that an increase in the value of a stock holding, in the absence of a monetary dividend, isn’t income: “Mere growth or increment of value in a capital investment is not income; income is essentially a gain or profit in itself of exchangeable value, proceeding from capital, severed from it, and derived or received by the taxpayer.” (emphasis mine.) The Moores have received no such benefit from the investment in question and therefore never incurred a legitimate tax liability. A ruling in favor of the government in Moore v. United States will eliminate any restrictions on Congress’ taxing power.

This is not an “inside baseball” case that only compulsive Court watchers will care about. If the justices rule against the Moores, it will supercharge the government’s confiscatory powers by enabling its inclination to tax unrealized income. This will affect everyone reading this column, not just investors with large stock portfolios. It would, in theory, permit the IRS to tax an increase in the value of your home as a capital gain — whether you have sold it or not.

“Mere growth or increment of value in a capital investment is not income.”

There is more meat in Catron’s article. Please click on the link and read it. And get mad! Then do something. If this is allowed to stand, many of us will lose our homes and businesses because the government determines the value of our home or business will grow exponentially (we can only hope) and tax us on it now, even if we aren’t realizing that for ten or twenty years down the road. And with our economy going in the direction it is now, our homes will be worthless in a decade. And will the IRS reimburse us – with interest? Dream on.

Join or start a Freedom Pod and add this issue to the fight. Without the right to property, we are slaves.

China’s Total War Against America

By Cliff Kincaid

December 16, 2023

On the heels of the passing of Henry Kissinger, who was praised by politicians of both major political parties, the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party has concluded in a report that Kissinger’s pro-China policy was a complete failure. It says, “For a generation, the United States bet that robust economic engagement would lead the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to open its economy and financial markets and in turn to liberalize its political system and abide by the rule of law. Those reforms did not occur.”

Who made that “bet,” on which the survival of the United States depends? It was originally made by Henry Kissinger, the former Secretary of State, and ratified by Republicans and Democrats over the years.

The committee did not, of course, name Kissinger as the main villain in this unfolding debacle. And that is why this report is itself a failure. It is an example of how Washington, D.C. and its political figures are never held accountable for decisions that put the survival of the United Sates in jeopardy.

Instead, in a series of court cases, former President Trump is being held “accountable” for things he clearly did not do. He is being charged by United Nations-trained lawyer Jack Smith with organizing a violent revolution to overthrow the U.S. Government, when he urged peaceful and patriotic protests, and unlawfully possessing White House documents he was entitled to have under the Presidential Records Act.

Incredibly, the government’s response to China’s aggression, in part, is to spend $400 million on a so-called Countering PRC Influence Fund (CPIF) at the presidential level – under China Joe Biden. This is one of the bizarre recommendations of this committee. It is worse than laughable.

Nothing less than the impeachment of China Joe and the jailing of his son could begin to address this problem.

Instead of wasting $400 million on federal bureaucrats who followed Kissinger’s lead and helped get us into this position in the first place, the committee should scoop up all available copies of “Soviet Total War,” a 1956 two-volume set of reports published by the old House Committee on Un-American Activities. The subtitle refers to the “historic mission” of “violence and deceit,” as originally practiced by the Soviets and now the Chinese communists. Volume 1 is 421 pages. Volume 2 is 898 pages.

These documents cover all aspects of the communist war on America that has brought us to this point. The strategy used by Moscow is being copied by Beijing.

I argue in my new report that the prosecution of Trump has everything to do with the fact that the Chinese tried to destroy his presidency with the China virus, they succeeded, and don’t want him to return to the White House.

In the process, of course, more than one million Americans died, and yet China Joe recently had a friendly meeting with the Chinese dictator in San Francisco. An impeachment inquiry isn’t needed to confirm that China Joe is in fact an agent of Xi Jinping.

In terms of the origin of this debacle, the House committee report explains, without naming Kissinger, how the Chinese Communist Party pursued a “campaign of economic aggression” which flowed “directly from the Party’s ideology,” that is, communism. It quotes dictator Xi as having made clear that he believes “capitalism will inevitably perish, and socialism will inevitably triumph.”

What the report itself doesn’t make clear is that Kissinger and his acolytes in the “Intelligence Community” were behind the idea that communism was dead in China and that the communists would turn capitalist. It was a lie. Instead, the communists all along had wanted to use capitalism to build up communism. They accomplished this through corporate deals and U.S.-China cooperation of the kind practiced by Henry Kissinger and the Bidens.

Such “cooperation” was also evident in the activities of one of America’s most prominent medical and scientific organizations, the federally-funded National Institutes of Health (NIH), which was  caught funding development of dangerous viruses in China. Francis Collins, an Obama holdover who had a long history of collaborating with the communist Chinese regime, presided over this “experiment,” along with Anthony Fauci.

They remain free of corruption charges. They are not being threatened with jail time.

There is a difference in the Biden and Kissinger cases. Kissinger did a lot of his deal-making out in the open, while China Joe used fake email names and Hunter funneled the money, including to the “Big Guy,” through shell companies.  But there is much that is similar. Kissinger worked on behalf of China and Russia, and so did China Joe and Hunter.   The Bidens also took money from Ukraine.

Now that the House of Representatives has voted to authorize a formal impeachment inquiry, the investigation should examine how Henry Kissinger’s pro-China policy paved the way for this corruption, and whether Kissinger was ever a communist operative, as once claimed by a communist defector.

One problem with the report is that it uses the Chinese term “socialism” instead of communism. This is more than semantics. The report uses the word “communist” only because it is in the official name of the Chinese Communist Party.

This is important because while the committee mentions the “ideology” of the CCP, it never explains what this means.

This leads to a major flaw in the report. Here’s what the executive summary report says:

“Since its accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001, the CCP has pursued a multidecade campaign of economic aggression against the United States and its allies in the name of strategically decoupling the People’s Republic of China (PRC) from the global economy, making the PRC less dependent on the United States in critical sectors, while making the United States more dependent on the PRC. In response, the United States must now chart a new path that puts its national security, economic security, and values at the core of the U.S.-PRC relationship.”

But China didn’t suddenly become communist in 2001. The communists seized power on the Chinese mainland in 1949. It should have been obvious since the communists seized power that they intended to exploit their economic relations with America to achieve their goal of world domination. Kissinger facilitated this process, leading to China’s current advantages over the United States and a possible invasion of Free China on Taiwan.

The problems we are encountering with Russia and China these days could have been avoided if we had taken the communist threat seriously.

The additional tragedy is that some conservatives these days think that Russia has also given up on communism, even as Vladimir Putin wages war on the former Soviet republics and has his sights set on anti-communist Poland.  They are dupes in the same way that Kissinger was a dupe, willing or otherwise, of China.

In this context, we can’t forget that Rep. James Comer has produced evidence showing Russian payments to the Bidens. He notes that Elena Baturina, Russia’s wealthiest woman, who was formerly married to the mayor of Moscow, paid Hunter Biden’s company over $3 million in 2014. This was the same year that Russia, under President Obama and Vice-President Biden, first invaded Ukraine.

Yet Baturina, who allegedly dined with then-Vice President Joe Biden and Hunter and others in 2015, has been excluded from the public sanctions list of Russian elites and oligarchs.

Such payments may also help explain why Biden has failed to give Ukraine the weapons it needs to defeat Russia and even encouraged the “minor incursion” into Ukraine in the first place.  It is consistent with Biden’s position of publicly supporting Israel after the terrorist attacks but then attacking the government of Israel for its military response.

But the China problem in particular didn’t begin with the Bidens. Kissinger started the Chinese Communists on the road to world domination when he cultivated friendly relations with Mao, the greatest mass murderer in history.

As my report demonstrates, it was Kissinger who did business with corporate clients looking for business in both China and Russia as he pursued what he openly called a “New World Order”  after Barack Hussein Obama was elected president in 2008.

Israel Was a Barren Wasteland Before the Jews Came in the 1880s

By Lewis Brackett

December 16, 2023

Outrageous antisemitic articles in local Portsmouth NH paper this week.

I was horrified that every article in the paper was written by those defending Hamas and their slaughter of Israelis. Of course, also denouncing Israel’s entering Gaza to kill the Hamas terrorists, and demanding that all Jews be driven out of “Palestine.” Even the graphic cartoons were the utmost vile hatred.

Truth and humanity are always the first casualties in such blatant evil. The historical record of the area is that in the 500 years before the late 19th century, climate change stopped the rainfall in that part of the world, leaving the area a mostly uninhabited desert. Go online & search the book “Innocents Abroad” by Mark Twain for a vivid picture of the area’s desolation in 1869.

The only people living there were a few desert Arab Bedouin wanderers. The travelers found a small pathetic community around the Sea of Galilee, and almost no one on their trip to Jerusalem. Total desolation, Twain said of the whole area.

The historical record continues that A few Jews began entering the land in the 1880s turning swampland into productive farmland. Arabs began entering “Palestine” to work in the Jewish fields, soon trying to drive the Jews out.

In God’s providence, the Moslom rulers stopped the violence. and protected the Jews! The basic reality is that both the Jews and Arabs/ Persians migrated into the land at the same time. In reality, there are very few native Arab Palestinians. All the rest are recent economic migrants.

Fast forward to 1948, the Jordanians drove all the Jews out of the West Bank. The United Nations built a very large number of towns there to lure the wandering Bedouin and people all over the region into the West Bank to occupy the land to prevent the Jews from returning.

These are the inconvenient truths the God-hating world does not want you to know about. Today’s narrative is saying the Jews displaced the Arabs. As I have just shown, this is a lie from Satan and his minions.

Jerusalem has become “The Burdensome Stone” just as God said it would. “The time of Jacob’s trouble” is upon the Jew, and tribulation upon the whole world … and the rapture for us. Maranatha, Lewis

Another Civil War? No, Probably Just Domestic Squabbles

By Sidney Secular

December 15, 2023

There is no one group calling for it, none has enough pull or is capable of pulling it off, and the militias have long since lost their momentum, having spent it on trying to help the Border Patrol who spurned the advances they were making. The professional pundits, who have to dream something up to agitate people in order to keep their jobs or ratings, are ranting over the idea that a civil war is in the offing. They will look for some angle to implicate whites or “domestic terrorists”(who are, of course, necessarily white) for the plots they contrive. Gun owners and conservatives have been added to the ranks of the non-existent white terrorists along with Traditional Catholics and other traditional Christians so that the surveillance state can tighten the screws of tyranny on everyone, especially anyone with a right to own and who does own a gun.

The left fears a right-wing dictatorship, even promoting the ludicrous fear of a Christian theocracy, more than anything else, because only that far remote possibility would mess up their mindless march to utopia, and a civil war could usher in such a dictatorship, so they are talking it up as some kind of threat to stifle the idea. The “reds” and “blues” say they couldn’t stand the prospect of the other side from taking over, but they haven’t thought out what they would do in such an eventuality. America has degraded to the point that it doesn’t have enough capability or agreement between the various factions to pull off another civil war. We’re too accustomed to fighting Israel’s or other people’s battles and too feminized to effectively fight any real battles anymore anyway. We hardly have enough energy to dissipate or fall apart gracefully.

To have a civil war, you need warriors will to die for a cause. We are too spoiled, distracted and lethargic for that level of commitment. Most people couldn’t handle losing their wireless connection for half an hour. Even the red and blue states are split between urban and rural factions. There are the non-whites against the whites, the coasts against flyover country, the whites split between libbers and Trumpsters, the English speaking against those who refuse to learn it, one generation against another, and native-born vs. immigrant and other foreign factions. Unexpected splits will splinter what were thought of as united fronts. People’s energies will increasingly be consumed in screaming matches and internal disputes within groups. What’s coming is less of a coup than a probable depressing spate of localized wildfires where freedoms get burned up and the Government steps in to keep an uneasy peace. We have sunk from a first-world power to an unstable third world one without going through an intermittent state on the way down.”

The American Dream Becomes the American Nightmare

By Karen Schoen

December 15, 2023

Kill the Jews; Kill the Christians; Kill the American Whites, Destroy the West is all we hear from the cries of Hamas, Hezbollah and now the Houthis, and their new found disciples, the college students and the LGBT… community.  I call them terrorists and savages. Of course, the ignorant disciples have no idea that they are fighting and demonstrating for their own demise.  They don’t understand what the fighting is all about.  Dennis Prager had a great explanation, The Middle East Problem.

I wonder if these followers realize the history of their new masters. After the Jews and Christians are dead, the terrorists will focus on them. Some women will be raped constantly. Those allowed to live will have their genitalia removed only to become sex slaves forced to make babies. No baby killing abortion choice for them. No food choice, music choice, clothing choice.  The Qaran calls homosexuality a crime so the gays will be tossed off a building, after their organs are removed. The men will be tortured and starved. Then they will become permanent slaves and when they outlive their usefulness their organs will be harvested.  These terrorists are savages, and are still living in the middle ages. The savages revere death, while the Jews and Christians revere life. The Marxists will impose strangling regulations, surveillance, spying, high taxes, high inflation, law and order according to Sharia, no alcohol but abundant drugs. Illegals will continue coming from who knows where. No borders, no country. You will own nothing and enjoy your serfdom.  We are living the American nightmare.

Eight years ago Geert Wilder the newly elected leader of The Netherlands made a speech which we are living today. Geert Wilders was in NewYork. During a lunch sponsored by the Hudson Institute on 25 September 2008, he made this speech worth reading, commonly titled “America as the Last Man Standing” or “The Lights are Going Out All Over Europe” in Internet circulation.  You can listen to the speech on the Greg Kelly Reports 12/7 or read it here. Greet described the pending American nightmare. We are living the results of inaction described by Geert.

I was watching the interview on Warroom.org with the Real America’s Voice reporter, Oscar Blue Remerez. He was reporting from the southern US border. I didn’t see any Congressmen at the border, just Oscar. The new caravan coming to America is 60,000 illegals from all over the world. 60,000 illegals. With this count there will be more than 15 million illegals in America. No one will check them. 75% are military age single men, many gang members.  Just wait until there is a natural disaster, food shortage, or another man made pandemic or crisis.  The US Miitary has been depleted with lower standards. Eventually I can see OBiden calling for illegals to join the military in order to become citizens. If you think they will have a problem shooting Americans? Think again.

Will American cities look like Beirut, Lebanon after they were overrun?  And then of course, who is paying for this? Why the American taxpayer. Seniors and vets are getting about $1400 a month SSI, while illegals get everything free equating to about $2-3000 a month.

America is under a planned invasion with an economy that is mirroring Argentina. See this video and see what is coming to America compliments of Obiden and Mayorkas.  Start at 17:46 Send it to your legislator.

I am now more convinced than ever that the GOP is filled with lowered standard Affirmative Action graduates. Expelling George Santos was one of the single most insane acts the GOP has committed.  Republicans are either stupid or the problem. They can’t count.  We have a slim margin in the house so they made the margins slimmer because they are afraid media will call them bad names. What is wrong with these people? Sounds like as long as they are not called bad names they don’t mind losing.  Remember that when a democrat wins Santos seat or Hulkill says special election not needed, I will appoint a Rep. Primary these losers/traitors they are to stupid to lead anyone. . How can you win anything when losers are leading?

The GOP has only $9 million to spend while the DNC has over $20 million. Instead of spending the GOP money on a strong get out the vote effort helping the grass roots, Ronna, the RINO, Romney is spending the little money against MAGA and Trump, and for debates that no one watches for candidates that no one wants. GOP is on a path to lose. They have been the majority for a year and they still can’t get rid of the blight of the OBiden administration destroying America. They have no plan except destroy Trump and MAGA.  Do they even know what MAGA means? In addition their messaging sucks. We need to vet and support the candidates not the party.  We must make sure Trump wins by a huge margin and has the right people in congress who will grow America not destroy it.    Thank you Senator Mike Lee and Rep Chip Roy for introducing a bill to defund the communist United Nations.

Our RINO legislators are allowing this nightmare to happen by siding with the DEMS and not their constituents.  All they do is hold meetings and claim there isn’t enough evidence. Then they want to give our money to their man made crisis so they can launder money back to themselves and continue the American nightmare for us. So what can we do?

Get your legislator on speed dial and tell them what is going on. Ask why aren’t they doing something like impeaching Mayorkas and OBiden? Don’t  let House members get away with lying by saying there isn’t enough evidence.  Follow them on line and see how they vote. Are they paying attention or are they off bowling like Vern Buchanan (R, Dist 16 FL.) Hold them accountable. Vet your candidates, investigate their voting record politicsthatworks.com  is a good place to start. Check their donors so you know who is pulling their strings. opensecrets.org will show you their money. Pay attention to your local legislators. Look for the strings of government grants. Let them know you are watching and tell them what you think.  Always ask questions and be polite but firm. Then get rid of as many RINOS as possible. First expose them, then primary them. But you must VET the new candidate as well.  Check their actions.

Then introduce Civics and America’s heroes to your children.  Get them prepared so they will not be fooled into socialism.  Make sure they can read, write and do math. Homeschool whenever possible. Check out the Florida Citizens Alliance, Microschool project.  goflca.org

Everything is connected. Nothing is random, Everything has a plan. All plans are lies. All Globalists want is MONEY, POWER, CONTROL Don’t give them yours. Challenge them with the truth. Doing Nothing is affirmation.

Teaching Children to Lie

by Lee Duigon

December 14, 2023

I’ll never understand why people continue to send their kids to public schools run by far-left teachers’ unions. Like, for instance, the Chicago teachers’ union, which a few years ago sent a delegation to Venezuela to (ahem!) “learn” from smirking tyrant Hugo Chavez.

Recently a 10th-grade student in Washington failed a quiz… by telling the truth. It was a “world history” quiz  (please feel free to honk if you understand how this has anything to do with world history), true/false, in which the student didn’t come up with the answers that the “teacher” wanted. He was flunked for labeling “false” two preposterous statements: “some women have penises,” and “men can get pregnant.” He was supposed to describe them as “true.”

Those are not true statements. Period.

And so Compelled Speech has seeped down into our grade schools, and children are being taught to tell lies because that’s what “Teacher” demands of them. They are taught to pretend that they agree with statements that they know to be false.

They are taught to be idiots.

Herodotus said the Persians became a great nation by teaching their children to tell the truth: they prized it very highly. But we prize lies. It would be hard to calculate what will be the price we pay for this; but I think it fair to say that the price will only go higher and higher as we keep on doing it.

You pay for it with your school tax dollars. Don’t hold your breath waiting for the “teacher” to be fired. The union will never let that happen.

Why do we put up with this? In what way will we benefit? The “educators” who dream up these capers defend it as “promoting inclusion”—whatever the deuce that means. I don’t think it means anything: do you?

Once upon a time, local boards of education represented the communities they served. The board members were our neighbors: in my home town, years ago, our school board consisted of small business owners and employees, a police sergeant, a retiree or two—ordinary people who shared our values.

But now? In Pennsylvania recently, a school district called Bucks Center, the Democrat Party poured heaps of money into the local school board election to capture a Far Left majority on the board. Back when I was a reporter who covered several local school boards, this would have been unthinkable. Unheard of. Board candidates didn’t have campaign funds. You could win election with no more than a dozen votes. People expected to be able to trust their school boards; and for the most part they weren’t disappointed.

Lulled into a false sense of security, you might say.

So the school boards were taken over by ideologues and apparatchiks financed by out-of-town political interests: that’s whom they represent. The plebs out there can go soak their heads—we’re gonna teach the kids what we want! All aboard for the socialist-transgender express! And be warned, parents—we’ll sic the FBI on you if you complain.

The only way out of this is a massive movement to homeschooling. “Public education” has deserted the public.

It has deserted you.

Diversity Versus Racism Equals Equity?

By Frosty Wooldridge

December 14, 2023

America continues at odds with its ethnic racial groups.  Brown people.  Black people. White people. Asian people. Jewish people. Muslim people.  Yellow people.  Biracial people.  It appears after many decades; ethnic groups cannot find harmony.

Every city in America finds itself racially separated.  Black people prefer to live with other black people.  Asians self-segregate at lunchtime by eating together.  Same with blacks.  Same with Whites. Same with Muslims.  Everyone generally likes to associate with their own groups.

Yes, because of laws made to create integration, many groups work together, but when they go home, they move toward their own groups. No matter how many TV programs pretend to integrate people, average people move toward their own racial groups.

Everything happening in America stands as a contradiction to reality.  The big people in high places push for “Diversity, Inclusion and Equity.”  The “Woke” people want males to compete and beat females…as if it’s normal or realistic or fair.  It shows that “Wokeness” continues as a mental disease that cannot be cured.

And, then you have LGBTQ+ concentrating on their own group trying to fit into America as something normal, usual and everywhere. It’s a minor percentage of people. They mostly hang with each other.

Yet, the old guard conservatives try to maintain some kind of ethics and morality in the face of America’s latest craziness.  So, what is racism versus diversity versus equity?  Why is all the racism pointed at White people?

If you look back in history, Native Americans were incredibly racist. If the Dakota crossed over onto Blackfeet’s land, the Blackfeet killed them.  The Apache killed the Comanche’s for crossing over turf boundaries.   The Cherokee didn’t like the Seminoles. The wars among tribes continued for centuries.  In other words, different tribes just didn’t like each other.

But in America, Whites are blamed for racism, White privilege, and virtually everyone’s problems.  And yet, 99 percent of the last 10 million legal and illegal aliens crossing over America’s borders are people of color.  Ironically, American minorities enjoy the high standard of living in the world.  So, what’s up?

Writer Bo Winegard said, “Liberals profess contradictory views about racism and diversity. On the one hand, they contend that whites are pervasively though often unconsciously prejudiced.  On the other hand, they contend that diversity is one of humanity’s great goods.

History clearly shows that diversity is not such a good thing among races.

“But if whites are almost irremediably racist, and if their racism stifles and traumatizes blacks (and other “people of color”),” said Winegard.  “Why would diversity be a strength? Why would it not be wiser for blacks to avoid whites and to create their own communities as free from the baneful influence of anti-black racism as possible?”

In reality, the former Mayor of Jackson, Mississippi called for a Black America made out of the five southern states. He died of cancer, but his son continues on that same path.  He’s got tens of thousands of supporters.

“The claim that racism is pervasive, stubborn, and stultifying is not new,” said Winegard.  “People on the left, in the center, and even on the right have forwarded it to explain a variety of black ailments and dysfunctions, from high crime rates and fatherless homes to low grades and test scores. But the claim has become more popular and more integral to mainstream political narratives since the rise of racial progressivism (also called “wokism”).”

But if you look at Detroit, Michigan, the Muslims have their own form of racism. They’ve made an Islamic Caliphate in Detroit.  Non-Muslims do not dare live in that neck of the woods.

Only white people can be racist because only white people have the power to oppress….

“And of course, after the death of George Floyd,” said Winegard.  “The narrative that ubiquitous racism engenders disproportionate outcomes in the criminal justice system became so conventional that it was endorsed and promoted by prestigious corporations, many of whom proudly (or, perhaps, cynically) advertised the Black Lives Matter banner. The theme, the meaning, the raison d’être of racial progressivism is that white people are responsible for the failures and dysfunctions of black people.”

In reality, America features the most black billionaires and black millionaires in the world. America features the highest rates of education for blacks in the world.  American blacks enjoy the highest standard of living in the world.

Wingard continued, “Diversity is a rhetorical sleight of hand which ultimately means “fewer white people in positions of power and prestige.”… Diversity is not about diversity; rather, it is about redistributing resources from white people (and Asians) to black and brown people.”

In the final analysis, success in free countries where democracy encourages personal effort, it gets down to IQ’s, educational excellence, individual choices, personal determination and free will.  Blaming other races for your own failures such as flunking out of school or joining a gang or getting hooked on drugs…well, that’s on you.  Only you can change that no matter what your color.

After having observed America’s racial divisions for five decades, this journalist sees no solutions, no resolutions, and no peace among races. It’s all pretty much how Mother Nature created the human race. There is no equity no matter how much inclusion or social engineering.  You’re seeing that play out in Ukraine, Israel-Gaza, Sweden, France, Great Britain and every country forced into endless immigration of disparate/incompatible racial groups.

In the Undeclared War of 2024, Liberals and Conservatives Must Create an Alliance to Defend American Freedoms

by Peter Falkenberg Brown

December 13, 2023

I am not suggesting acts of violence. Instead, we must use every possible legal avenue to prevent the totalitarian takeover of America.

~ I think it’s a strong possibility that Biden and the Left will activate hostile illegal aliens and domestic rioters to commit acts of violence, murder, and terror across America, to such a tragic degree that Biden will then have an excuse to declare martial law and cancel the November elections. I think that’s their plan. Whether they can carry it out is another matter. ~

In the last three years since Joe Biden was sworn in as President, large numbers of liberals have come to realize that the fanatical members of the hard-left are not their friends, and more specifically, are not the friends of liberty. These liberals have found unexpected common ground with conservatives and yes—even Trump supporters.

The lockdowns and dictatorial mandates during the Covid pandemic shocked freedom-loving citizens. Rejections of cures, hospital malpractice, mask and vaccine mandates, vaccine injuries and deaths, and the squashing of free speech and civilized debate about the issues revealed layers of power-hungry totalitarians spread throughout society.

Simultaneously, Americans have watched inflation soar and our economy turn toward collapse. Businesses shuttered during Covid have not rebounded. Farmers and the food supply are in peril. Fuel supplies are low and costs are rising. The percentage of financially struggling Americans has grown while the wealth of the “richest one percent” has multiplied in an obscene fashion. It is no coincidence that far too many of the ultra-wealthy are not champions of democratic values. They fly on carbon-producing jets to conferences abroad to discuss ways to crush the freedoms of “the common man”—all in the name of saving the planet. Their “science” has been challenged and their motives and actions seem thoroughly self-aggrandizing.

Observing all this, common men and women, otherwise known as freedom-loving Americans, are asking themselves if they really want to be forced to live in fifteen-minute cities with no cars, no cash, and bugs on their dinner plates. They will not be happy “owning nothing.”

What happened to freedom?

Amidst all of these stress-inducing crises, it has become increasingly clear that there’s something deeply wrong with the results of Biden’s open-border policies. An October 30, 2023 article in The Washington Examiner, stated:

“More than 10 million people have been reported illegally entering the United States since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021, the greatest number in history and of any administration. They total more than the individual populations of 41 states.”[1]

It would be one thing if all ten million illegals were peace-loving and wanted to integrate as patriotic Americans. But many are the opposite. Wayne Allyn Root wrote, on October 11, 2023:

“Biden (and his boss Obama) have left the border open. They’ve let millions of dangerous foreigners in. Most of the migrants entering our country are military-age males from China and the Middle East along with MS-13 thugs and gangbangers under the control of the Mexican drug cartels. This is an army of killers now roaming around our country.

If I ruled China, I’d order this army into action to paralyze America with low-tech violence and terrorism — just like the Hamas terror attack in Israel.”[2]

Which brings us to 2024, the year of the “undeclared war” on American freedom. If you were a hard-left totalitarian oligarch, what would you do in 2024? For starters, you’d be deathly afraid of the November 2024 elections. A November 30, 2023 opinion piece by Robert Kagan in The Washington Post presented this headline:

“A Trump dictatorship is increasingly inevitable. We should stop pretending.”[3]

It seems evident that the hard left believes that Trump might win the election. Thus, the media histrionics about Trump and conservatives as evil Nazis, or their ilk, is growing increasingly shrill. Their accusations that Trump is a dictator reflect their own morals and actions. They don’t just see the world darkly—they use lies and calumny as strategy. In case you really, really, really don’t like Trump, I invite you to acknowledge that the Left’s hatred toward Trump is not really about him at all. It’s simply because he’s in their way. Their real target is you, and me, and every person who prefers freedom as a way of life.

The level of American freedom and prosperity during Trump’s four years was far beyond what ordinary Americans are now experiencing under Biden. Unable to admit that truth, the hard-left accuses conservatives of what the Left is doing. But isn’t that always the pattern of evil men and women? To accuse the innocent to cover their own crimes?

The hard left is both hubristic and afraid. The Left is running scared, but at the same time, it’s consumed with its own arrogance and desire to crush the unimportant citizens for whom they have contempt. With the threat of a conservative victory in November 2024, what will the Left attempt?

To remain in power, they must not lose the 2024 elections. Can they win by cheating, as they were accused of doing in 2020? If Trump’s margin is too wide, they might not. What then can they do?

I think it’s a strong possibility that Biden and the Left will activate hostile illegal aliens and domestic rioters to commit acts of violence, murder, and terror across America, to such a tragic degree that Biden will then have an excuse to declare martial law and cancel the November elections. I think that’s their plan. Whether they can carry it out is another matter.

But they have the firepower and the will to do it. They have many leaders of the newly-woke military at their disposal, along with hundreds of thousands of administrative agents who have large amounts of weapons and munitions stored away. This is not a recent development, even though the hiring of 87,000 armed IRS agents has recently been in the headlines.

Ten years ago, on March 10, 2013, Larry Bell wrote an article for Forbes called “Why The Heck Is DHS Buying More Than A Billion Bullets Plus Thousands Of Guns And Mine-Resistant Armored Vehicles?” He stated:

“Maybe some folks remain confused about what he really meant during 2008 campaign remarks, when speaking in Colorado, then-presidential candidate Obama said: ‘We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded.’ ”4

In December 2020, the public charity OpentheBooks.com published a report called “The Militarization of the U.S. Executive Agencies.” That report stated:

“We estimate that there are now more federal officers with arrest and firearm authority (200,000 ) than U.S. Marines (182,000).”5

What are the “national security objectives” that Obama referenced? The Left has revealed its intent quite clearly over the last few years. Patriotic Americans are now deplorables and a “threat to national security.”

Can the Biden administration legally declare martial law and suspend the November elections? It would seem unlikely, but if they go to a war footing against Russia (or any country), they’ll have extra power. I’m not a lawyer or constitutional expert. But look at what they’ve gotten away with in the last three years, with the assistance of the compromised mainstream media. Illegality isn’t important to Biden and crew. It’s not important to China, or Sharī‘ah Islamic jihadis. It’s not important to cartels and other criminals.

I believe that Biden’s team is planning to create a massive amount of violence and chaos in America in 2024 and use it as an excuse to throw American freedoms out the window. If this is even a remote possibility, it begs this question:

What will freedom-loving Americans do about it? I’m not suggesting acts of violence. I am stating that it’s far past the hour for liberals and conservatives who love freedom to join together in an alliance of liberty—an alliance that will create a super-majority of American citizens.

That alliance needs to preemptively use every possible legal avenue to prevent Biden’s runaway administration from turning America into a totalitarian country.

Liberals: your hearts are good. You love freedom. It’s now time to reject the propaganda of the leftist media and Biden’s administration and join with your neighbors, family, and friends who are conservative, and together, shoulder to shoulder, save America.

Sponsored Video Content

Conservatives: reach out to your liberal friends and family and convince them that a free America is worth saving. Do any of us, either liberal or conservative, want to live in a totalitarian police state? Of course not! Thus, we must act now.

I believe that God will approve.

How The Political Game Is Played: It Doesn’t Get Any Easier To Understand Than This

By Bradlee Dean

December 13, 2023

“They control and supply to both sides.”

Last week, we all had the opportunity to see how the political games are being played (Ephesians 4:14).

During one of my radio broadcasts, the conservatives of the day (yesterday’s liberals), were parroting the CIA Mockingbird media’s lying propaganda narrative (Matthew 5:13; Micah 6:16).

The propagandists were driving people to the seats to watch their favorite clowns in the circus of politics ramp up for, as they called it, its next “showdown.” Read Mark 8:15.

The clowns (Distracters), being used to entertain the goats, were Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and California Governor Gavin Newsome.

Of course, Ron DeSantis is sold to the American people as the good guy while Gavin Newsom, of course, is sold to the American people as the bad guy.

This system of deception is predicated upon divide and conquer (Mark 3:25). It is in hopes that the people will actually follow along and believe both of these stooges in taking them for face value when pitting them against each other as arch enemies.

However, the same agenda by one source is being pushed forward through both sides.

What is worse is when people are not paying attention to the corrupt fruit hanging on both branches of their administrations in accusing each other of what they are both guilty of doing (Revelation 12:10).

This is leading and controlling the opposition. They create the problem leading up to their political objectives.

“The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves.”-Vladmir Lenin

This is controlled opposition. Controlled Opposition is when a deliberate attempt is made to either create an opposing effort to any existing power base, or, to obtain control of any opposition to one’s own efforts.

The American Politician: Yes, We Are Corrupt!

Some time ago, the mainstream media useful idiots came out and did a fair report, unbeknownst to them.  It was the perfect example (Outside of the Harlem Globe Trotters bringing a losing team with them to each venue that they played) of what, and how, politics in America are being played.

CNBC highlighted chicken sandwich wars. They reported, “When it comes to Chick-fil-A versus Popeyes, Tyson Foods wins, Jim Cramer.”

When it comes to the chicken sandwich war between Popeyes and Chick-fil-A, investors should buy the hand that feeds them both: Tyson Foods.

That’s CNBC’s Jim Cramer’s take on the viral clash on Twitter in recent weeks where users pit the two fast food chains against one another. Both restaurants turned to the social media platform to promote their respective sandwiches, which resulted in millions of free advertisement for both companies.

“When you see all these people lined up outside Popeye’s waiting for a bite of their terrific new chicken sandwich, you should buy the biggest arms dealer in chicken world … Tyson Foods,” the “Mad Money” host said. “Whether Chick-fil-A or Popeyes wins the chicken wars, Tyson will always come out ahead.”

Popeyes, which is a subsidiary of the publicly traded Restaurant Brands International, rolled out the first chicken sandwich on its menu nationwide earlier this month. Many of its locations had sold out of both its mild and spicy chicken sandwiches in recent weeks due to the frenzy of customers looking to get their hands on one.

Cramer, however, doesn’t recommend buying shares of its parent company if investors expect to get a noticeable piece of the profit bump. Popeyes accounts for 12% of the holding company’s store base and potentially 7% of its earnings, the host said. Restaurant Brands also owns Canadian coffee franchise Tim Horton’s and the aptly-named burger chain Burger King, which makes up most of the conglomerate’s revenues.

Chick-fil-A is privately held, so the public won’t be able to get in on the action of the highest-selling chicken chain in the U.S.

“Maybe the real takeaway here is that people just love chicken, and if that’s the case, you don’t need to invest in the chicken war directly, you need to buy an arms dealer,” Cramer said.

The chicken business in Tyson Foods, one of the largest producers of poultry, beef and pork, makes up 30% of sales, he added. The stock has seen its share of ups and downs in recent years, in the wake of higher labor and transportation costs, but the share price has run more than 70% in 2019. The stock closed Monday’s session above $91 a piece.

Conclusion: Politicians are pitted against one another to fill the seats by the same ones pulling the strings and driving the narrative, just like that of “Chick-fil-A” and “Popeyes” in Tyson’s being the one behind selling them both the chicken.

‘Snow Is Black’ Syndrome Taught In Our Schools

By Anita Hoge

December 12, 2023

How do you create equity and diversity in the classroom? Family background, age, religion, beliefs, values, character, personality, IQ, biology, and multiple arenas of experiences make each child unique…but not in the eyes of DEI, diversity, equity, and inclusion. It is unconscionable thinking to make children equal but the wheels keep grinding forward. Realize, it’s not equality in opportunity that is the charge. It is the child  who will be mashed into a mold to be forced to think the same.

The whole child must serve the democracy of sameness. When social and emotional learning interventions are implemented how do teachers decide which emotion or value will be targeted? And how do teachers pick which intervention to use to change a specific value? They don’t. It’s a blanket of psychological manipulations. Hopefully, parents are beginning to realize that social and emotional learning is social engineering and the goal is to create controversy in a child’s belief and value system. Emotion regulation means to dissolve your child’s emotions, not one particular one, all of them. A child cannot say he hates strawberry ice cream because that would be discrimination or racist. So now Johnny cannot have an opinion or value judgement about the weather. If it’s cold to him, it might not be cold to others. The teacher asks for other opinions. He would worry that he would be wrong. Others may condemn him. He refuses to speak. Others shame him. The group surrounds him. The group shouts him down. His will is broken. The group is awesome. Peer pressure dominates. Snow is black.

When children were pressured in a federally funded Kohlbergian moral growth project to determine if Hitler was bad, Lisa was afraid to answer because of someone criticizing her for her answer. The concept is universal values. The teacher’s Socratic questioning remarked, “was Hitler bad or whether he was wrong?”(Source: “Promoting Moral Growth from Piaget to Kohlberg,” Hersh, Paolitto, Reimer; (page 189) This technique is called, cognitive conflict or cognitive dissonance, or creating a conflict in what the student believes:

The student replied,

Lisa:  “The only thing -I can tell you I’m really confused because, since this class
I’ve had to consider an awful lot more than I ever would.  And I’m so confused as
to what is really right and what is really wrong.  I feel like in a sense that I know so
little about what is right and what’s wrong that I can’t say that Hitler was even
bad. Or that we have a right to our own lives. I don’t know.”

Teacher:  “One thing, we are making a distinction between whether Hitler was
bad or whether he was wrong.”

Lisa:  “I don’t really know whether he was wrong.  Just because I don’t want to
say anything definite.  I’m afraid of, somebody could prove me wrong in a
different way.”

“Thinking skills” are twisted to impose a new way of thinking by using critical race theory   to create a new kind of prejudice where the oppressor is the victim. Even in kindergarten classes this technique is used to turn the tables in the Three Little Pigs story where the wolf is the victim because he likes pork.

A behavior changing activity reported some years ago included roll playing where the student had to write a persuasive essay as the individual in the first-person to argue that the Germans were the victims during the holocaust.

“Think like a Nazi.” (Source: Think Like A Nazi🙂

This following activity was news worthy of a value changing technique: “Students in Albany High School English classes were asked this week as part of a persuasive writing assignment to make an abhorrent argument: “You must argue that Jews are evil, and use solid rationale from government propaganda to convince me of your loyalty to the Third Reich!”

Students were asked to watch and read Nazi propaganda, then pretend their teacher was a Nazi government official who needed to be convinced of their loyalty. In five paragraphs, they were required to prove that Jews were the source of Germany’s problems.”

Shoving artificial stress on children through a series of conflict exercises and Marxist antagonism to change fragile belief systems is wrong. The true question of why depression and suicide is on the rise in young children, should we first  look at this agenda in our nations schools? These techniques and activities change value judgements, emotions, and dispositions of children through controversial curriculum. The idea of mass social engineering started in the behavioral sciences by Lord Bertrand Russell, who joined the Frankfurt School in his effort of “producing an unshakable conviction that snow is black”. Taken from his 1951 book, The Impact of Science on Society:

“The subject (mass social engineering) will make great strides when it is taken up by scientists under a scientific dictatorship….The social psychologists of the future will have a number of classes of school children on whom they will try different methods of producing an unshakable conviction that snow is black. Various results will soon be arrived at. First, that the influence of home is obstructive. Second, that not much can be done unless indoctrination begins before the age of ten. Third, that verses set to music and repeatedly intoned are very effective. Fourth, that the opinion that snow is white must be held to show a morbid taste for eccentricity. But I anticipate. It is for future scientists to make these maxims precise and discover exactly how much it costs per head to make children believe that snow is black, and how much less it would cost to make them believe it is dark gray.” (Emp.mine.)

Priming Kids For Change Through Universal Screening

Prevention they scream. Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports, PBIS, universal screening IS mass social engineering and your school is the touch point of changing your child’s behavior through Skinnarian reward and punishment. However, the PBIS teaching techniques and interventions are not a curriculum like history or math that parents can walk into the school and look at a book or computer program. No. It’s Universal Screening and PBIS teacher training that will control their behavior. (Source: PBIS Training)

These are time honored and time purchased teacher PBIS training sessions for teachers to become that fake, unlicensed psychologist in the classroom. And yes, data they will collect. Teachers are enablers. Note that all of this data collection is arbitrarily collected of how a teacher feels, or thinks about a child! Yes, teachers monitor their behavior and catalogue every move your child makes. How does a teacher really decide what points to enter into their data dashboard about Johnny or Suzy? And how does this data collection reflect the rewards and punishments in a classroom?

Universal interventions are the first step to control behavior. This makes the child receptive through conditioning. The next step uses Critical Race Theory (conflict activities) that replace the child’s values and beliefs.

The Whole Child Must Be Controlled

To control behavior (how a child will act) you must create conflicts in what the child believes and feels, the whole child. All standards in a strategic plan at school are written in “performance” behavioral objectives. Blooms Taxonomy uses the following prototype: cognitive + affective = psychomotor:  think + feel = behavior:  MIND + SOUL = BODY.

This means the whole child. The soul is the target in social and emotional learning.

The Snow is Black Syndrome or Not Quite Snow White

Once the Skinnarian techniques (PBIS) prime the conditioned child, an example of an activity using the book “Not Quite Snow White” proves as this parent from New York City explains, teaching her 7 year old diversity and equity is implanted as indoctrination. (Source: Not Quite Snow White)

According to the woke culture, laws of nature would be exploited.  Biology must be changed. Rules and regulations must be thrown out. Remember, BF Skinner would prove that pigeons could play ping pong or play the piano. This is quite significant because he wanted to prove Nature could be controlled. The artificial is more valuable than the natural. Thereby, science becomes that which we can manipulate with Nature, not what we understand of it. (Source: Skinner teaches pigeons how to play ping-pong) Human nature becomes moldable and captive children fit easily into that mold. Transgender aligns to this thinking by destroying and ignoring science albeit biology and genetics still rule what gender truly is, male and female. But the push for androgyny is upon us, ask female swimmer, Riley Gaines.

Following this concept of being woke, we would now teach students that their ancestors were racist. Our Founding Fathers were white male supremacists. History books are wrong. Defund the police to control crime. Males are too competitive and aggressive. Loans, housing, and laws are racist. Everything you were ever taught about America is wrong. Nature will be controlled and so would human biology through massive mutilation of little boys and little girls although through an artificial process of surgery and hormone blockers. America is the evil empire and your children are the target for change if they believe in God, family, loyalty, patriotism, or the Constitution.

A new mindset is developed. Moral absolutes are replaced with a flexible mindset. All of the past Industrial Age of academic knowledge-based content would be tossed into the air to let fall in disorder and chaos. 2 + 2 = 5. Equity and democracy would create the level playing field. There would be no one smarter, more beautiful, more wealthy, or more anything. Redistributing wealth would rebalance the economy. Pure democracy would create equity in human beings across the board. This means teaching to an average that would create a functional literate by The Deliberate Dumbing Down of AmericaIndividualism no more.

The spies around us are taking notes and the filtered data will come back to haunt us.

This system will rip the soul from your child.

Snow is black.

Washington’s Farewell Address, Part 1

By Paul Engel

December 12, 2023

  • While preparing to leave office, the first President under the new Constitution left the country he loved a present.
  • He not only discussed why he was retiring, but provided some salient advice on how those who would pick up his mantle should seriously consider.
  • The advice he gave his nation is something we should review, more than once.

As he prepared to leave office, President George Washington gave a Farewell Address.

Friends and Citizens:

The period for a new election of a citizen to administer the executive government of the United States being not far distant, and the time actually arrived when your thoughts must be employed in designating the person who is to be clothed with that important trust, it appears to me proper, especially as it may conduce to a more distinct expression of the public voice, that I should now apprise you of the resolution I have formed, to decline being considered among the number of those out of whom a choice is to be made.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

As our thoughts are employed in the designation of the person who is to be clothed with the trust of administering the executive branch of the government of the United States, I think we should look back at the advice and warnings from the first occupant of that office.

Retirement at Last

As Washington said in the opening of his farewell address, he would not serve a third term.

The acceptance of, and continuance hitherto in, the office to which your suffrages have twice called me have been a uniform sacrifice of inclination to the opinion of duty and to a deference for what appeared to be your desire. I constantly hoped that it would have been much earlier in my power, consistently with motives which I was not at liberty to disregard, to return to that retirement from which I had been reluctantly drawn. The strength of my inclination to do this, previous to the last election, had even led to the preparation of an address to declare it to you; but mature reflection on the then perplexed and critical posture of our affairs with foreign nations, and the unanimous advice of persons entitled to my confidence, impelled me to abandon the idea.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Not once, but twice, George Washington was called on to be President of the new country under the new Constitution, and twice he agreed. With the expectation that he would be called again a third time, Mr. Washington wished only to retire to Mount Vernon. After seeking advice from those in his confidence, he made it clear that he intended to return to the retirement he had previously enjoyed.

In looking forward to the moment which is intended to terminate the career of my public life, my feelings do not permit me to suspend the deep acknowledgment of that debt of gratitude which I owe to my beloved country for the many honors it has conferred upon me; still more for the steadfast confidence with which it has supported me; and for the opportunities I have thence enjoyed of manifesting my inviolable attachment, by services faithful and persevering, though in usefulness unequal to my zeal. …

Here, perhaps, I ought to stop. But a solicitude for your welfare, which cannot end but with my life, and the apprehension of danger, natural to that solicitude, urge me, on an occasion like the present, to offer to your solemn contemplation, and to recommend to your frequent review, some sentiments which are the result of much reflection, of no inconsiderable observation, and which appear to me all-important to the permanency of your felicity as a people.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

As Mr. Washington prepares to retire, his concerns over the welfare of the people of the United States leads him to one last duty. He takes the time to record the dangers he foresees and to provide advice. It was his hope that the people would frequently review his warnings. Let us renew that tradition, starting today.

Strength of the Union

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth; as this is the point in your political fortress against which the batteries of internal and external enemies will be most constantly and actively (though often covertly and insidiously) directed, it is of infinite moment that you should properly estimate the immense value of your national union to your collective and individual happiness; that you should cherish a cordial, habitual, and immovable attachment to it; accustoming yourselves to think and speak of it as of the palladium of your political safety and prosperity; watching for its preservation with jealous anxiety; discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event be abandoned; and indignantly frowning upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now link together the various parts.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Washington knew that enemies, both foreign and domestic, would seek to pull this nation apart. That only a people devoted to unity within the union would support the peace and safety they so greatly prized. That those enemies would work to devalue and divide the union. That the division and alienation that has become the basis of so much of our society would be the destruction of more than the union, but of our domestic tranquility itself. We are witnessing the prescience of Washington’s warning. Perhaps we can learn how best to rescue ourselves from this situation by reading more of his words.

For this you have every inducement of sympathy and interest. Citizens, by birth or choice, of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation derived from local discriminations. With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political principles. You have in a common cause fought and triumphed together; the independence and liberty you possess are the work of joint counsels, and joint efforts of common dangers, sufferings, and successes.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Being an American used to be a source of pride. Whether a citizen by birth or by choice, patriotism should supercede our petty differences. Our willingness to tolerate our minor differences led to our independence and liberty in a way no other nation has ever achieved. Our willingness to come together to face our common dangers and sufferings and to protect the rights of our neighbors and fellow citizens now seems to have weakened to the point of failure. Because of this, the American motto e pluribus unum, out of many one, is collapsing into e unum pluribus, out of one many. More and more we are no longer Americas, but African-Americans, Latino-Americas, Asian-Americans, LGBTQ-Americans, along with another host of hyphenated titles. We forget that what all of these labels have in common is that we are all Americans. While we set ourselves against our hyphenated brethren, while we tear the Union apart with our focus on division, we lose one of the things that once made America the shining city on a hill Ronald Reagan once talked about: Affection for our neighbors.

In contemplating the causes which may disturb our Union, it occurs as matter of serious concern that any ground should have been furnished for characterizing parties by geographical discriminations, Northern and Southern, Atlantic and Western; whence designing men may endeavor to excite a belief that there is a real difference of local interests and views. One of the expedients of party to acquire influence within particular districts is to misrepresent the opinions and aims of other districts. You cannot shield yourselves too much against the jealousies and heartburnings which spring from these misrepresentations; they tend to render alien to each other those who ought to be bound together by fraternal affection.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

It’s not just ethic backgrounds that are being used to divide us. Have you noticed how we all have fallen into these geographic distinctions? North vs south, eastern vs western, coastal vs central, even urban vs rural. How often have we seen those who seek after influence lie about those of other groups? So often that we even have a joke about it. “How can you tell when a politician is lying…” We have divided ourselves to the point that some are calling for a national divorce, a dividing of the union, or even a civil war. It seems to me that most of this division comes more from political agitation than actual differences.

Centrality of the Constitution

The basis of our political systems is the right of the people to make and to alter their constitutions of government. But the Constitution which at any time exists, till changed by an explicit and authentic act of the whole people, is sacredly obligatory upon all. The very idea of the power and the right of the people to establish government presupposes the duty of every individual to obey the established government.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

For this union to exist, all parties must agree to the obligation of following the Constitution established by the people. We create governments via constitutions. Until the people change the powers and function of the government established by the Constitution, we are all obliged to follow that government. However, what happens when that government violates the constitution which created it? As the Constitution states, we owe our allegiance to the Constitution as the supreme law of the land, not to the men who may pervert it. Yet how many today even know what the Constitution says? You are almost certainly not going to learn it in law school, where they teach the opinion of judges supersedes the supreme law of the land. If we do not read the Constitution for ourselves, how are we to know whether an act of Congress, a regulation from the executive branch, or the opinion of a judge is obstructing the supreme law? How are we to know if those who serve in government are obstructing the very law they swore or affirmed to support?

All obstructions to the execution of the laws, all combinations and associations, under whatever plausible character, with the real design to direct, control, counteract, or awe the regular deliberation and action of the constituted authorities, are destructive of this fundamental principle, and of fatal tendency. They serve to organize faction, to give it an artificial and extraordinary force; to put, in the place of the delegated will of the nation the will of a party, often a small but artful and enterprising minority of the community;

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Have you noticed how the execution of laws seems to be focused on factions and political parties? What one group does goes unpunished while a group from another faction is severely punished. This is not merely double standards, but is destructive to the fundamental principle of liberty and equal protection under the law. We shouldn’t be surprised, since for decades those in charge of making and executing the laws, not to mention those tasked with deciding controversies, have been obstructing the execution of the Constitution as the supreme law of the land while We the People stood around, watched, and cheered.

Conclusion

There is so much we can learn from Washington’s Farewell Address I’ve had to break it up into two parts. In the next article I will review the rest of the document. Before I close today though, I would like you to consider this. At the birth of our country, our very first President set the standards and traditions that Presidents have followed for almost 150 years. As the people we have placed in office, along with those we hire to represent us and the states, have walked away from his advice, we have watched the crumbling of the republic. Perhaps, by frequent review of Washington’s advice, we can return the republic to the constitutionally sound country he helped create.

It’s Now Our Patrick Henry Time in History

By: Devvy

December 11, 2023

I am compelled to take Americans back to a time in history that so mirrors today – (actually far worse than back then) because there is no more time to simply hope things are going to get better.  Almost beyond comprehension, the Democrat/Communist Party USA put up a career criminal candidate in 2020 who was already suffering from dementia to run as their choice for president.

The shadow government (aka deep state) took over, put career criminal, Joe Biden in the basement and used the media manufactured COVID-19 hysteria to keep the American people corralled and hog-tied by locking down this country.  And to keep Biden’s obvious dementia out of the public spot light as much as possible while the prostitute media crucified Trump.

America, formerly the most powerful, free and prosperous country in the history of mankind installs a lying cheat losing his mind as our president.  How world leaders must have laughed watching Biden speak to 15 people at a rally vs Trump speaking to 30,000 at a rally.  It’s not funny for us but it was the plan of those working to destroy America.

Powerful forces went after Donald Trump with a vengeance never seen in the history of this country for a political candidate; in this case, an incumbent president running for a second term.  A second term Trump won because five swing states all violated federal election law and a simply ignored a U.S. Supreme Court ruling.  Once Trump was removed from the WH, Americans paying attention knew without a doubt the indictments brought against him are to destroy Trump before the election in November 2024.  The impeachments didn’t work, so we’ll go with bogus indictments brought by political hacks like Leticia James and big Fani Willis.

That ploy has backfired big time and has made Trump even more of a hero to millions because fair minded Americans are disgusted over indictments brought to keep a political opponent tied up in court rooms instead of on the campaign trail.  Election interference driven by dirty politics.

The Unreachables out there so committed to their morally bankrupt, dirty, filthy corrupt Democrat/Communist Party USA, they don’t give a damn.  Every time I hear someone (usually talk radio hosts) say ‘polls show votes for Biden’, I want to scream.  What rubbish.  Nothing but meaningless noise while real solutions aren’t even hinted at by big name talk show hosts and nightly anchors on ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, MSNBC.  Just the same old recycled election year rhetoric.

Even the most uneducated, brainwashed Democrats out there are not voting for Biden who without any doubt has Altzheimer’s disease.  It matters not to the empty-headed crones on The View boob tube show entertaining an equally vacuous audience of dullards who continue to support that empty suit who stole the election.  It matters not to millions of registered Democrats and likely many ‘independent’ voters because they are not voting for Biden.

They are voting for the massively destructive policies being shoved down our throats by unelected officials in cabinets and agencies that have ZERO Constitutional authority to exist.  Policies implemented by non-elected individuals who hate Christians and constitutionalists.  Those policies and endless regulations are simply a resurrection of tyranny by constitutionally ineligible to run for president, Hussein Obama, who stole two elections via fraud.  That lying piece of human garbage who promised to “transform America”.  The fools out there believed his sales pitch and here we are today.  A nation divided, the herds tamed, hate dominating our culture and institutions of lower learning.

But make no mistake: Hussein Obama and one of his key coconspirators right through today, Valerie Jarrett, (FBI Files Document Communism in Valerie Jarrett’s Family) take their marching orders from higher up and make sure Biden follows through.  And right now, they have a huge problem.  Medicating Biden into zombie land for any public appearance is no longer working.  The shadow government is done with old Uncle Joe.

This latest and very serious indictment of his son, Hunter, is not a minor burp Biden’s cheerleaders and official mouthpieces can brush off.  There’s not going to be any rescue this time around.  You can read the full indictment here.  Where does that leave Joe?  Mentally he’s already gone so he’ll follow orders.  If he’s told by his elder abuser wife, Jill, he has to step down to “give his full support to his son”, that’s what Joe will do and probably – although he’d never say it out loud – relived not to have to perform as a sock puppet day in and day out.  Just give me my favorite ice cream cone and let me sit on the beach.

After my husband passed away, about a year later I became a part time substitute teacher.  The first summer when school was out, I worked part time at the wonderful veteran’s home just outside of town.  I had 20 hours of formal training on dealing with and caring for vets (men and a few women) suffering from either dementia or Altzheimer’s.

I spent many hours that summer around men (mostly in the 70 years old to their mid-90’s) who fought in undeclared wars and protected our homeland.  Too see them no longer able to do more than play simple board games, BINGO or just wheel them around was pretty heart breaking.  Former top shape Marines were frail old men having to suffer the humiliation of a female nurse change their diaper or give them showers.  Some would remember me as I did my best to make their day a better one.  Others were just confused and at times afraid because they didn’t know what was really going on.  Some just sat alone on a couch talking to the wall or an imaginary someone.

My late mother had dementia for about six years before she passed away and was inching towards Altzheimer’s.  When you really stop and think about it, it’s simply unbelievable the people of this country would tolerate a president (this one who cheated his way into the WH) who has been in mental decline for many years.  A very dangerous situation.  Biden has been a huge embarrassment at every public function since he became the Democrat/Communist Party USA nominee.

Some say Biden was okay in 2020 but has “lost some steps” since then.  BS.  His handlers kept him out of the public eye as much as possible and no doubt in my mind, meds kept him somewhat coherent until the Nov. 2020 steal.  Not anymore.  That habitual liar stumbling around in full view of the world has become a real liability for the shadow government.

The dilemma for the destroyers is next in line, “Legs in the air”, Kamala Ho Harris.  Another absolute embarrassment to this country.  No one wanted her when she ran against Biden and the last nearly three years have shown Harris to be a cackling, brainless nitwit.  So, what will the destroyers do as the clock ticks and those upcoming primaries loom? They know damn well Trump would reduce Biden to a crybaby if the two debated.  Biden’s campaign will not commit yet to participating in general election debates in 2024, Dec. 6, 2023

I know millions of Americans who know the truth on so many of the major issues feel defeated because despite all the congressional hearings, not a single person has gone to jail.  None of the liars and crooks have been held accountable.  Remember how Trump very vocally promised to have Hillary Clinton investigated for using a private e-mail server, among her other crimes?  The shouting which brought down the roof at rallies:  Lock her up!  Lock her up!

June 2, 2016 – “Trump called for Clinton to be jailed during a campaign rally in San Jose, Calif., calling her “guilty as hell.”  “Hillary Clinton has to go to jail. She has to go to jail. I said that.” Nov. 22, 2016 – “I don’t want to hurt the Clintons, I really don’t. She went through a lot and suffered greatly in many different ways,” Trump told The New York Times.

“My inclination would be for whatever power I have on the matter is to say let’s go forward. This has been looked at for so long, ad nauseam,” he continued.  “Trump quickly faced backlash from his supporters, most notably the conservative media site Breitbart.com, which ran a headline blasting Trump’s “broken promise” to his base.”

Hildebeast suffered in many ways?  What about our dead in Benghazi?  If you haven’t watched 13 Hours:  The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, you need to.  When testifying in front of Congress about Benghazi, Hildebeast famously growled, “What Difference, At This Point, Does it Make?’ (Video clip)  The witch.

Intel expert: New docs confirm Hillary gun-running op, Oct. 21, 2015.  “At long last, some of the details about Secretary Clinton’s Department of State gun-running operation to the al-Qaida-and-Muslim-Brotherhood-dominated Libyan rebels are beginning to emerge,” said Clare Lopez, a member of the Citizens’ Commission who served as a career operations officer with the CIA and is currently vice president for research at the Washington-based Center for Security Policy.

“It’s long been known that under President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton, the U.S. switched sides in the global war on terror, but the White House successfully concealed much about its agenda to replace secular North African leaders with Muslim Brotherhood regimes – until now,” she said.”

How could ANY veteran vote for Joe Biden after the worst military disaster in our history:  Cut and run from Afghanistan.  13 dead soldiers and thousands of Americans left stranded while Joe puddled around the WH or off to his multi-million-dollar Delaware beach front vacation home.  Not to mention $80 BILLION dollars of our military hardware and equipment left behind.  How obscene.

Patrick Henry.  His speech to the Second Virginia Revolutionary Convention meeting at St. John’s Church, Richmond, on March 23, 1775, was a turning point in our history.  This is a small portion but the state of our nation in 2023 is in even worse dire straits than back then.  What the Crown in Great Britain under King George was doing to the people who inhabited this new land pales in comparison to where we are today.

Read his words.  They go deep into the soul.  Patrick Henry knew what was going to happen down the road.  He also knew cowards would turn their backs and side with the British Crown.  Except for about 3% of the population at that time who were committed to busting the yoke of servitude and tyranny.

“This is no time for ceremony. The questing before the House is one of awful moment to this country. For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.

“Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it. I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.

“I know of no way of judging the future but by the past. And judging by the past, I wish to know what there has been in the conduct of the British ministry for the last ten years to justify those hopes with which gentlemen have been pleased to solace themselves and the House. Is it that insidious smile with which our petition has been lately received? Trust it not, sir; it will prove a snare to your feet.

“Suffer not yourselves to be betrayed with a kiss. Ask yourselves how this gracious reception of our petition comports with those warlike preparations which cover our waters and darken our land. Are fleets and armies necessary to a work of love and reconciliation? Have we shown ourselves so unwilling to be reconciled that force must be called in to win back our love? Let us not deceive ourselves, sir. These are the implements of war and subjugation; the last arguments to which kings resort. I ask gentlemen, sir, what means this martial array, if its purpose be not to force us to submission?”

This is not a ‘call to arms’ but it most certainly is our Patrick Henry moment in history where Americans need to stop being distracted by flashy headlines or trivial pursuits.  While I do a lot of serious research, I do glance at some headlines here and there to keep up with trends and last week was a doozy.  A singer named Taylor Swift was given front cover and named Person of the Year by the joke called Time Magazine.  Taylor Swift Is Forbes’ 5th Most Powerful Woman in the World

WHAT?  If I have it straight, Ms. Taylor has already hauled in a billion dollars from her current world tour with more expected.  B for billion. That is a ton of moola.  A woman (as woke as they come) who apparently doesn’t have such good luck in the love department and after the endless and predictable break-ups, writes songs for her albums chronicling her pain.  Boohoo.

God save us from the “influencers”.  Tik Tok as well as other platforms have exploded with videos of mostly women called influencers.  Get a better body, better make-up – you name it, there’s an influencer out there to tell you how to think or do for a thousand different things.  Oh, and they’re making BIG money doing it – especially the ones half-dressed with big breasts.  God only gives us so much time on this earth.  I should waste mine watching some ‘influencer’?  How in the world did America get along for hundreds of years without all these nobodies trying to direct you to some way of thinking? 

Those are just a couple of quick examples while the shadow government’s minions never stop working towards implementing their plans to destroy us.  NGO’s (non-governmental agencies) are some of the worst aiding and abetting those working towards a world government as well as non-profits like The Rockefeller Foundation.  I covered the congressional hearings on those evil doers soon after my web site went on-line, July 4, 1998.

Come January, patriotic Americans need to get on the same page as far as top priority issues:  Election fraud and the massive invasion at our southern border.  We have come to the point where it’s either the Constitution or submission.  Yes, our elections have been stolen from We the People since the late 1960’s.  Yes, partisan judges should be removed from the bench.  Can we beat them at their own game on those issues?  Yes, we can.  No more Band Aid bills that don’t cure the problems made by Congresses and state legislatures over the decades.  Right at the top is the privately owned “Federal” Reserve and manipulation of our currency.

The upcoming primaries are absolutely critical.  I know I sound like a broken record but if you don’t oust an incumbent, come November we end up with the shadow government’s choice, R or D.   Re-hire the same incumbent responsible for where we are today.

But, how do we do this?  There are literally thousands of groups and organizations fighting for our very existence as a constitutional republic.  Really hard-working dedicated Americans.  I know because I’ve been in the trenches full time for 31 years and I do a hell of a lot of research.  Unfortunately, too many get infiltrated by RINO’s pretending to be for American values, real freedom and liberty while stabling us in the back.  Too many don’t really know the genesis of when and how the problem started so they accept scraps from Congress and state capitols.

Unlike the years leading up to the American Revolution and the war of independence, we have tools they didn’t have which enables us to reach tens of millions of Americans.  But we need Americans to make that commitment to America first; past times, hobbies and leisure time has to be put on the back burner.  People say they’re fighting for their children and their future and we are but still, too many sit on the side lines expecting someone else to do the work.  Others are waiting for ‘the rapture’, Jesus will come and save us all.  No, it’s up to us.

In part II, what must happen:  Separate States from Federal Tyranny

Tucker Carlson’s Cure for Stress and Key to Happiness

By Steven Yates

December 11, 2023

One of the most hated men in media suffers “zero stress” because of it. Here’s why.

I began streaming episodes of Tucker Carlson Tonight a couple of years ago, having read his book Ship of Fools: How a Selfish Ruling Class Is Bringing America to the Brink of Revolution (2018). If you haven’t read this book, you should.

His show on Fox News had already become the most watched of its kind.

Obviously, Tucker Carlson is polarizing. This is because he’s hated by the ruling elites, their servile employees and disciples up and down corporate media and among left-indoctrinated populations (young, urban, “diverse,” “educated,” etc.) — but loved by an audience that craves often unpleasant but always truthful information, presented in a manner that is positive, upbeat, and sometimes even funny.

The man clearly loves what he’s doing, loves his life, enjoys serving his audience, and seems genuinely happy!

Fox News abruptly canceled Tucker Carlson Tonight back in April under circumstances no one has revealed. This was on the heels of Fox’s settlement with Dominion, so many suspected a connection. None was proven, so we don’t know; Carlson himself denies knowing what transpired. Obviously, it wasn’t a purely business decision. With Carlson’s departure, Fox lost a lot of viewers.

What struck me was how gracefully he handled it. He didn’t react angrily, or strike out at his former employer. “It’s not my company,” he told podcasters in one interview. Landing on his feet, he created Tucker on Twitter (now Tucker on X) and kept on as if nothing fundamental had changed.

A moment of self-disclosure: I lost the best teaching job I had (early 1990s) because a senior faculty member went behind my back. I’ll spare you the details, except to say: when I learned the truth (two years later), I wasn’t a happy camper! Not for months! No, make that years!

My inability to forgive and move on cost me. My recollection of that era led me to want to know: What was Tucker’s secret?

Well, thanks to Sasha Stone on Substack, we now know. It’s an epiphany!

Not only do we learn Carlson’s secret of happiness and how to move on, but we gain insight into why our national and global ruling classes are so horrible — why everything they touch, they ruin.

A double-whammy, in other words!

Carlson’s secret: care only about the opinions of people who care about you.

Corollary: do not anguish over the opinions of strangers. The opinions of people who don’t know you, don’t care about you, and never will, shouldn’t matter to you.

Choice quotations:

“The opinions of people you don’t know mean nothing.”

“Never hand emotional control to people who don’t love you.”

“Keep the circle of people whose opinions you care about really small. Pay very close attention to what they think, and ignore everybody else. In my case, obviously, I’m one of the most hated people in the world, and that causes me zero stress.”

“Everybody cares what other people think. Make the decision who you hand that power to.”

Who should you hand it to? Family, for sure. If your spouse hates what you do, you should pay attention (!). If your children don’t respect you, you’ve done something wrong. Feedback from close friends, colleagues or work associates, employees: these matter. Neighbors? Possibly. Depends on the neighbors. The resulting orbit whose opinions you should care about will probably be fewer than twenty people.

What about the rest?

Especially if you’re a writer, hardly famous (!), who’d like to expand (or build) an audience!

I’ve no idea how many people see what I write. I have no access to NWV stats. A select number of readers email me semi-regularly. A handful I’ve gotten to know a little. Most enjoy my articles. One or two do not.

Carlson’s point still seems valid, even for guys like me. To obsess over negativity from strangers is a recipe for stress and anxiety — even for relatively unknown writers.

I was recently motivated to do some thinking about who I am writing for — especially as my output goes all across the map, from political economy to personal development to paranormal fiction! What came to mind: (1) Readers suspicious of vested authority, including so-called “experts.” They realize that, at best, “our” political class is as self-interested as everyone else: more so, however much they try to hide it. Many “experts” are where they are for political reasons. Look at Dr. Fauci. Lauded not just as a doctor but “the nation’s Number One Expert in infectious diseases,” he hasn’t treated a patient in decades. He’s an upper-echelon career federal bureaucrat. His enjoyment — if it really is that (and I have my doubts) comes not from serving people but wielding money and power, and in ways that unleashed destruction.

Many of us concluded long ago that trust in authority should be earned, not given away for free.

I’d love to connect with more such people!

Because (2): bad experiences with authority open minds to new options. I’m writing for readers interested in learning more about them. Even if they aren’t about to let a writer they don’t know personally lead them by their noses. (Not that I’m trying to do that.)

The Hidden Psychology Of “Our” Ruling Class Explains Why It Ruins Everything It Touches.

We have, in Tucker Carlson’s ensuing words, an account of why “our” ruling class is so disgusting (his word).

It’s not simply that political and corporate elites want to control others, or get rich through corruption or “passive income,” i.e., income gained without having done any work that genuinely serves others.

Some may be born sociopaths. Others may have become sociopathic because they are emotionally damaged. This compels the worst of them to seek absolute power. The more modestly damaged aren’t content unless they have adulation from masses of strangers.

How does this work?

Earlier this year, a friend and I did some deep dives into the psychology of the desire to control others. I’d vaguely known: Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, all grew up under fathers who beat the daylights out of them.

It’s common knowledge: abused children frequently become abusive adults. The neglected become narcissists or develop other personality disorders.

I’ve seen this firsthand. I’ve encountered and even sometimes worked alongside people who were highly intelligent but also opportunists unafraid to use people and situations to get what they wanted. They weren’t self-aware enough to see what they were doing, why others eventually steered clear of them, why their marriages failed, or why in a few cases they even ran afoul of the law.

It’s a matter of degree. Those damaged beyond repair as children learned only violence and hatred. When they got absolute power, they exacted maximum damage on their countries, sometimes sending millions of people to their deaths.

They hate people, because they hate themselves and the world generally.

Sometimes the damage is more modest. Parents were emotionally absent, or families were dysfunctional. These are the folks who live for the adulation of people they don’t know, whose problems they don’t know beyond a few superficials, and whom they can’t possibly care about as persons.

While individual cases doubtless differ, as a group these folks seek attention from strangers because they never received any genuine nurturing as children.

Tucker Carlson called this “the darkest sickness of all.”

That’s “our” political class — even those who see themselves as well-intentioned (doesn’t everybody?).

This need for adulation, even love, from strangers isn’t tied to party affiliation or even ideology, although I suspect it afflicts those on the left more than it does those on the right.

Bill Clinton came from a dysfunctional family.

Donald Trump? Hero to many, but also (sadly!) damaged. His father, Fred Trump, was not a nice person, and his older brother Freddy Jr., cut from a different piece of cloth altogether, sank into alcoholism under their father’s verbal abuse and died tragically at age 42. The Trumps were rich and talented, but also dysfunctional. These are not mutually exclusive.

Carlson implies that when those who seek adulation from strangers don’t get it — the strangers don’t simply fall in line — this tendency easily morphs into a desire to control them. They then rationalize this by proclaiming their Love for the People.

Which is complete BS, of course. This is clear in how they treat the people around them.

Karl Marx’s children nearly starved to death.

Hillary Clinton has a reputation for verbally abusing those under her, and on at least one occasion got physically abusive with her husband. Not because Bill philandered with an intern, mind you, but because he got caught. Hillary’s childhood and upbringing seems fairly normal, suggesting that she was born a sociopath.

Love Trump or not, the world dodged a massive bullet back in 2016 when the country did not anoint her the First Woman President!

Biden family dysfunction is seen in his son Hunter. The man is an utter mess!

Marx proclaimed the “collectivity” of humanity as its essence.

Hillary wrote (or had ghostwritten) a book entitled It Takes a Village (1996), and was heard to say, “It takes a village to raise a child!” She’s a hardcore collectivist who Loves The People.

Tucker Carlson, in a pivotal moment from the talk referenced above:

“It’s all a lie. There’s no The People. There’s just people, with names, fingerprints, unique histories and desires, and weaknesses that need bolstering. They’re individuals, and that’s all there is. God didn’t create groups of people at once. No woman ever gave birth to a community.”

The plain truth: abstract collectives do not exist. Only individuals: you, reading this; me, having written it; the people around us we care about; neighbors; coworkers or other associates; etc. All with their own unique life trajectories!

They fight different private battles. Beyond shared superficials like having food to eat, a roof over one’s head, electricity, work sufficient to sustain these, what keeps you awake at night is probably different from what keeps your neighbor awake at night.

My point here, following Carlson’s: members of the political class — and globalists even more so — don’t get this because they can’t.

Thus their attraction to top-down solutions, sometimes to “problems” which aren’t real.

We’re not talking mere sin here, although in a fallen world, that’s doubtless a factor. I firmly believe most people mean well, even if they need God’s grace. Very few people deliberately try to hurt others, or take pleasure in their suffering.

I could make a compelling case that our globalist and political classes fundamentally hate humanity, and that this is reflected in their beliefs and in their policies.

The point is, we’re dealing with a fairly small group, all with genuine privileges, most of whom have a deep psychological compulsion to be followed, adored, loved, by strangers. When they don’t get this love, their compulsion morphs into a need for control. Subconsciously they hate people. They hate the human race in the abstract, because they hate themselves.

It should be clear: this makes them very dangerous, because when they get power, the results range from the constrained dysfunction we see in Congress to the utter disaster that would occur if the world followed, e.g., globalist dictates to end the burning of fossil fuels for energy in response to the “climate emergency.” These people, in their bid to save the world collectively from itself, elevated a teenage girl to the status of “climate expert.” That’s indicative of how irrational they really are.

Tucker Carlson’s Counsel Revisited.

What can you, as a person, do? What can I, as a writer, do? It all comes back to that.

You can remove yourself from the political and globalist class’s sphere of influence as much as you can. Unless you’re someone like me who writes about these things, you can ignore most of what they do if it doesn’t affect you.

In my case: some will respond, many won’t, so what?

Returning, then, to Tucker Carlson’s counsel, especially relevant as we near the start of what may well be a volatile year.

Make the decision to care about people who care about you, or who you are in a position to help. Don’t hand emotional control to strangers. Otherwise, you’ll suffer chronic insecurity, stress, and anxiety.

Not only that, you’ll be prone, however modestly, to what afflicts our ruling elites.

For many, this will mean making peace with having had abusive or emotionally absent parents. Or having grown up in a dysfunctional family.

Awareness is the first step.

The second is to absorb this, also from Tucker:

“You were put on this Earth to serve the people right around you.”

Not masses of strangers in foreign lands, or even the masses of strangers in your own.

Keep the range of people whose opinions you care about small. Never hand de facto emotional control to others who don’t care about you. Those others don’t know you, don’t know your situation, any more than you know theirs. The conditions for meaningful caring simply aren’t there.

It may sound harsh, but there’s no rational way to care about The People or “the world as a whole”!

This isn’t a license for indifference to those outside your circle but whose paths you cross.

Be kind to the housekeeper in your building, if you live in one. Even if she speaks broken English. Tip your waiter or waitress. Respect store clerks and cashiers. These people’s jobs and lives may make yours look like paradise by comparison.

Be a good human being.

I think our Creator demands this of us. Did He not create us — all of us — in His image?

This means accepting limits.

For most of us, our best bet in “denting the universe” is to make a positive difference in the lives of the people we are in a position to affect for the better. If we’re not serving them, we’re not serving our Creator.

Limitedness is normal. Localness is normal. I don’t think any human being or human institution was meant to have global power. That’s not normal.

We’re not wired for it — designed for it if you prefer.

Which is why honest histories of such efforts record only mayhem, destruction, and suffering.

Maybe the best answer to global, political and corporate ruling classes is: don’t be like them. Don’t be anything like them.

Just work on yourself and be a better you. I think you’ll find in this the key to happiness.

United States of America Being Colonized by the World’s Refugees

By Frosty Wooldridge

December 11, 2023

Once the European white man discovered North America, he began to “colonize” this continent to the point where it subverted 522 Native American tribes.  The white settlers drove Indians out of their lands on the East Coast to the Midwest, and after Lewis & Clark, European settlers ravaged Indians all the way to the Pacific Ocean.  Very much the same happened in Canada!  Many of the tribes suffered extinction at the hands of the white man from diseases and outright slaughter.  Indians with bows and arrows did not stand a chance against mechanized calvary, rifles and canons.

After defeating all those tribes, the American government placed Indians on reservations where they remain today. Very few Native Americans mix with American society.  Their customs, their language, and their religions did not/do not work well with our high-speed civilization.  In fact, they were considered savages.  The Indians’ children were placed in orphanages to try to convert them into white man’s ways.

The results continue today in confused lives, alcoholism, domestic violence, drugs, welfare, food stamps, government housing and an aimlessness not understood by average white Americans.  Ironically, they build casinos on their reservations, but no amount of the white man’s money can rebuild Indian cultures, religions, languages, life-purposes and good health.

Whether you read Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, The Sand Creek Massacre or Trail of Tears-—nothing can bring back or correct what happened to Native Americans.

From that point in the late 1800’s, the white man completely controlled North America.

But in 2023, America faces a new “colonization” by different tribes from around the world.  They crash America’s borders by the millions.  They arrive with incompatible/terrorist religions that expect to dominate America. Who is that?  Answer: Muslims of the Islamic religion. It is a political-religion of conquest.  It makes no bones about it.

“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any faith, but to become dominant. The Qur’an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.” Omar Ahmed, director of Council on American Islamic Relations.

This past week, the C.A.I.R. director praised Hamas and supports the genocide of Israeli Jews, in fact, all Jews.  He’s got 8 million American Muslims to back him up.

“The precept of the Koran is, perpetual war against all who deny, that Mahomet is the prophet of God. The vanquished may purchase their lives, by the payment of tribute; the victorious may be appeased by a false and delusive promise of peace; and the faithful follower of the prophet, may submit to the imperious necessities of defeat: but the command to propagate the Moslem creed by the sword is always obligatory, when it can be made effective. The commands of the prophet may be performed alike, by fraud, or by force”. John Quincy Adams: written in 1829

If that doesn’t send a shiver up your spine, what will?  Muslims have completely invaded Europe. They’ve changed everything in Europe. From civil society in European countries, no one can escape the violence of Muslims whether it’s outright terrorist attacks, or Muslims decapitating people on the streets of Paris or London in single acts of terror.  Thousands of cases of such terror attacks are recorded by Robert Spencer at www.jihadwatch.org

Today, we’ve got between 4 and 8 million Muslims in America. We’ve got terrorist cells growing with Biden’s open borders for the past 35 months.  They arrive with no intention, whatsoever, of becoming American citizens who are loyal to the U.S. Constitution. They remain loyal to the Qur’an and Sharia Law. That “law” stands in direct opposition to our Constitution.  They plan to install Sharia Law as their numbers grow.

As a matter of fact, one look at 300,000 Muslims in Detroit, Michigan will show you that de facto Sharia Law is already being practiced with honor killings, female genital mutilation and women are valued at ½ that of a male Muslim.  You can take them out of the desert, but you cannot civilize them as shown by all the great men of history such as  Churchill, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and dozens of other thinkers. They said that Islam is the worst retrograde religion on this planet.

What other kind of colonization?  Right now, reports by Clayton Morris show that a caravan grows with 4,000,000 people in lower Mexico.  They expect to arrive at our southern border by mid-January 2024.  He made a 15-minute video:  America is about to change forever by mid-January 2024.

After watching that video, you need to start sharing it with your networks. You need to write your two senators and House member. You need to take any kind of action to make this issue the number one issue of the presidential race.  We’re talking about the end of our country as we know it. This massive invasion will fracture and fragment us into caliphates, tribes, racial conflict, religious conflict and ultimately, break us into pieces.

Biden has already imported 8,000,000 illegal aliens from over 100 countries.  He’s giving them cell phones, credit cards and tickets to fly or bus to any city they demand. They come from Russia, China, Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Somalia, Kurdistan, Yemen, India, and another 90 countries.  They are costing us $163,000,000,000.00 annually to sustain them.  That’s all those Muslims in Detroit, Chicago, Miami, Los Angeles,  Denver and beyond. They live on welfare payments. Once a lady drops her baby on our soil, she is paid $2,200.00 monthly to care for that baby.  Those refugees receive SSI payments, WIC, ADC and Section 8 Housing.

Is that not “COLONIZATION” of our country?

So, the questions become:  When does it end? Can we take on another 10 million or 20 million or 50 million refugees?  The reason I ask these questions stems from the fact that those refugees come for an overload of 83,000,000 new babies born annually, net gain, on this planet.  In other words, there is no end to the line.  So, can we save all of them?  How long before we become like Europe’s countries?  What happens when our systems collapse from the sheer numbers?  What are we going to do when our citizens breakdown into chaos?  What happens when the Muslim terrorists start their internal war against us?  Do you not understand that total chaos will visit us at some point?

Final questions: how stupid and senile is this president and how stupid is the U.S. Congress and how stupid are the American people to sit by and watch their country devolve into a third world country?

Answer: really, really, totally, completely and utterly STUPID!

The Systematic Killing of America Part 5 of 6

By Reverend Glynn Adams

December 10, 2023

I certainly don’t claim to know everything about what is going on in our nation today but I read the Bible and books written by men and women who are influenced by the Book.  The Bible is our instruction book on how to follow the LORD Jesus Christ and to live His abundant life.  Hopefully, you will find out today if you can “handle the truth” of Scripture and commit to its obedience!!!

Today in this article, I want to bring your attention to some most important facts that most pastors and those of us in the Body of Christ have forgotten or never knew.  There is so much I could write on but I am going to state what I feel are the most important to our current situation in America.  I am amazed how little we follow the Word of God today and how little we actually know in order to be obedient to the LORD Jesus Christ.  If Jesus Christ is your LORD, then He is LORD of everything in your life including your golf game, your money and how you use it; everything and God means everything!!!!

Deception is a powerful word.  One of the profound truths which most followers of Christ do not know is, “by definition, a person who is deceived does not know he or she is deceived.”  Once deception is cast down, there is light and revelation that amazes the one who was deceived.  A major deception among the followers of Christ in America is the work of Satan in the world and in the lives of believers.

We are taught that Satan is bound and chained.  Yet many cannot account for the attacks that come our way and the besetting sins in our lives that we cannot seem to overcome.  We pray and pray, we struggle, and we just ignore hoping all will just go away.  Much of the thought and counsel concerning dealing with Satan in the American religious systems today is “ignore him and he will flee.”  What a deception.  Most Christians today are confused and deceived about the work of Satan and how to effectively defeat him in their lives.

In Ephesians 4:11, the Bible says that we have been given apostles, prophets, evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the Body of Christ until we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God……  Is that going on in your religious system today?  I doubt it!!!

Most pastors I know and interview, don’t want to talk about Satan, demons, and strongholds.  They ignore the subject while the Bible says to resist and that pastors are to teach this to the Body.   I can tell you I went seven years to the best Bible School, university, and seminary that Southern Baptist have and not at any time in class was I taught about Satan, strongholds, and demons.

Most pastors in America know how to bring people to the light but know nothing about how to protect his congregation from the deception of Satan!!!  I learned about casting out demons and anointing the sick with oil and praying for them from a Charismatic lay person and in the pastorate, it sure came in handy as a young man was brought to me who was on drugs, in the occult, used a Ouija board, a DJ at an acid rock radio station and in all types of sexual activity and perversion.   Was I to tell him Jesus can’t help him?   The Southern Baptist denomination I was in thought so. They labeled me a “Charismatic” and fired me!!!  I praise God I was set free from all that demonic religious mess!!!

Because we have ignored Satan and refuse to resist him, America has been captured by Satan, we are ruled by Satan and not by God and we have become a habitation of demons in our culture and nation, and now the gods of Egypt and Babylon are now sitting up their high places and only God knows what else in our nation and we ignore Satan and his powers of darkness!!!!!

This revival of the occult such as witchcraft, satanism, and spiritualism have invaded our land in flood tides. Eastern religions have found new footholds in the land of the free and the home of the brave.  We are a deceived nation – all because our pastors and religious institutions are deceived and ignore Satan and his powers of darkness and refuse to resist him.

We are in a war and we must get on a war footing; put on the whole armor of God and do warfare.  Most people ask, “What warfare?”  This is the response which often results when spiritual warfare is mentioned.  Traditionally, the subject of spiritual warfare is disregarded by most people.  Though the devil is admittedly a part of the total theological spectrum, he has been largely disregarded and ignored in most generations in this nation.

Don’t anyone in this nation blame the useful idiot Democrats or Republicans, or Klaus Schwab, the Council on Foreign Relations, all the demonic occult elites, Rockefellers, or whoever for the demonic demise we are currently in.  They are just following their god, Satan who gives them nothing.  The real blame is the pastors and those that claim to follow the Lord Jesus Christ, who died for our sin, gave us dominion, all authority and power to resist Satan and we refuse to be obedient to our loving God!!!  HATH GOD REALLY SAID?  Yes, He did – throughout the Scriptures we are warned not to be deceived and the Scriptures are clear we have an enemy called Satan and we are commanded and warned not to ignore Satan but to resist him!!!

Why do we ignore Satan?   First of all, we are deceived but Hosea 4:6, tells us, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.  Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest.  Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.”  Knowledge and the law of your God comes from the Bible – the Word of God.  Are we as the followers of Jesus Christ prepared to continue to attempt to live the life of Christ without reading and abiding in Christ – the Word of God?  My God what is it going to take to wake us up?  Rejected from being His priest and God will forget our children.

We can’t continue to be disengaged in this war going on in this nation.  As a follower of Christ, you can’t hide, you can’t play it safe – you try to save your life you will lose it so said Jesus.   We have no fear of God among too many of the believers in this nation.  In the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 24:14, Jesus explains you are a wicked and lazy slave if you try to play it safe in the Kingdom of God.

Let me before I continue on help your fear of God.  Folks, I am not trying to be unkind or mean here but we have turned following Christ into a religion and a game and it is neither.  We have been lied to by pastors and religious systems that following Jesus is a comfortable religion and you can do as you please and still go to heaven.  You will be held accountable by Jesus Christ, Lord of Lord, King of Kings!!!  In Revelation 21:8, the first to be cast into hell are cowards, immoral people, liars and etc.

When you made a covenant with God to follow Him and to obey, commit, submit, to be faithful, and show allegiance to Him, God one day will hold you accountable for what you did with what He gave you.  You are not a follower of Jesus because you say you are but what you really did with what God gave you!!!  As Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer said in trying to wake the followers of Christ in Germany up against Hitler, “Silence in the face of evil is itself evil; God will not hold us guiltless.  Not to speak is to speak; not to act is to act.”   To follow Christ is no game here.  We are talking about life or death, heaven or hell, blessed or cursed, light or darkness, right or wrong, and truth or lies.  This is not “Ho Hum!!!”  This is serious stuff!!!

Jesus really will send you out as lambs among wolves.  You will be hated, reviled, persecuted, and you will be handed over to authorities and put in prison or worse.  If you can’t take that, then you will probably end up in hell.  With Jesus, you are all in or not in at all.  Again, we have been lied to.  All you have to do to follow Jesus is go to a building, be comfortable and care-free, be yourself, sit there in your sins, listen to the sermon, its friendly, no challenge and you can feel good because you went to “church” and then go home do as you please because you have hyper-grace.  When is the last time a pastor said you have spiritual responsibilities and you will be held accountable to carry them out.  I really do hope this will help your fear of God.  It’s all in the Word of God for you to see and obey.

As I have said many times over the years – WE ARE IN A WAR!!!  Oswald Sanders, in his timely volume, ”Satan is No Myth,” says, “The consistent theme of the Bible from beginning to end is the conflict between good and evil between God and the Devil.  It begins with the serpent in Genesis and ends with the devil in the lake of fire in Revelation 20.  The intervening chapters depict the swaying tides of battle in conflict waged in the heavenly sphere as well as on earth.”

Despite the obvious truth of the statement, the average follower of Jesus today hears very little that would encourage him or her to prepare and equip himself or herself to fight confidently in this life and death struggle”.  I can tell you if you are not resisting Satan, you will be overcome by him.  Can you imagine an army which does not understand the nature of the engagement nor the character and methods of its enemy?

Yes, we are at war, like it or not and our war is not going away by ignoring it.  It is a real war with real antagonists, real battles, and real weaponry.  It is unseen but no less real than the smoking battlefields of Israel’s exploding war going on today.  It is more than likely that we shall understand more and far better as believers as we continue to face the fact of this warfare in our nation today.  Doubtless, the time has come for the followers of Jesus Christ to wake up, repent of our deception, and to sound the battle cry, get on a war footing, mobilize, train, and equip the soldiers and “fight the good fight of faith.” (1 Timothy 6:12)

Even a casual observance of the Apostle Paul’s writings will reveal that they are sprinkled with military terms denoting an intense warfare.   (If you can’t see this it is because you have not read it in the Word.)   Paul told Timothy to endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ in 1 Timothy 2:3, and to fight the good fight of faith in 1 Timothy 6:12.  Paul’s own testimony was I have fought a good fight, I have kept the faith in 2 Timothy 4:7.

In writing to the church at Corinth, he declared, “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh; for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” (2 Corinthians 10:3-5)

That one statement contains at lease seven implications of warfare (war, weapons, warfare, pulling down strongholds, casting down, and captivity.  In Romans 8:37, Paul announces, “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.”  Our Savior Himself announced, “Think not that I am come to send peace on the earth.  I came not to send peace but a sword.” (Matthew 10:34)    It is clearly and very obvious that the ministry of Jesus on this earth was a continuous warfare.  He announced to His disciples that in the world they would have tribulation and further declared that He had already overcome the world (John 16:33]  Folks, we worship “another” Jesus that we have made up and not the real Jesus in the Bible.

Peter informs us that we should be sober and vigilant, knowing that our adversary, the devil, as a roaring lion, walks about seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8)   But nowhere in the Bible is the subject of spiritual warfare treated with more seriousness and depth than in Ephesians 6:10-19. “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.  Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

 Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand the evil day, and have done all to stand.  Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness.  And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.  Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.  And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.  Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.  And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel.”

The Apostle Paul is saying in this passage to all Americans to: “WAKE UP TO THE WORLD OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE.”  We must discern who Satan is using to carry out his destruction and then openly confront them in the power of God and the authority of the Word of God.   We have been given all power over the enemy and we must take the fight to them starting now!!!

Go speak to your pastor about your concern.  Please be polite and Christlike – being moved with compassion and not indignation. Attempt to pass on what truth you have to him.  If he will not listen to you, get out of there immediately.  He is not your friend but an enemy.   Take as many as you can with you and form a group and in unity do as the Spirit leads you in this warfare.  We must come into unity and get out of any religious organization that will not come into unity and obedience to Jesus Christ.  We cannot afford to neglect this spiritual warfare in this nation any longer.

If you choose to remain in a church system, the pastor should not preach salvation sermons only and neglect the culture of our nation.  If he does, he is disobedient to the LORD Jesus Christ.  Jesus is Lord of the salvation experience but also of what goes on in our culture that affects people.  To neglect what is going on in our nation and culture is disobedient to the Lordship of Christ and He will not only hold the pastor accountable but those who sat in the pew and say nothing to the pastor.  You are part of the Priesthood of the Believer and you are responsible for what goes on in your church system!!!

Please, read “The Coming Battle”  written during the civil war and published in 1899. READ – how the banking money power, brought to America European socialists to infiltrate influential universities, collages and seminary schools .… By reading this book you will better understand the events taking place today. There is nothing new under the sun. History is repeating itself. Different players, the same game. World domination.

Kissinger’s “China Card” for the New World Order

By Cliff Kincaid

December 10, 2023

The scary story about a Chinese Pearl Harbor-style attack on America’s allies and assets in Asia caught my attention. The 23 million people on the island of Free China on Taiwan are in immediate danger. But the article by Nixon scholar Harry J. Kazianis missed the main point of interest to Americans in the homeland. Would China launch such an attack on America itself and wipe out their most important colony?

The sad conclusion, that the United States has become over time a colony of Communist China, is based in the observation that America was suckered into this predicament with China in a decades-long process begun by President Nixon’s Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

It’s not just a matter of Christmas toys and trinkets imported from China. The Chinese have already stolen us blind in the matter of national security. They stole our advanced nuclear weapons designs, as documented by the 1999 Cox Commission report. What is more, they have been continuing this infiltration of our nuclear labs, in the same way the Soviets did during World War II.

As China Joe’s involvement in Hunter Biden’s schemes come in for additional scrutiny, we must, in fairness, revisit the legacy of Henry Kissinger, who was the subject of published reports in the 1970s that he had a pro-communist record at Harvard and that he had served as a member of a communist intelligence cell in World War II.

My new report, “Before China Joe, There Was Kissinger,” examines this dangerous situation facing America and its allies in the context of Kissinger’s influence peddling. He was much better at it than China Joe and Hunter and was never held accountable.

Kissinger’s Influence Peddling

Kissinger did business through his own firm for secret corporate clients seeking deals in China, Russia, and other countries. Isaac Stone Fish, founder and CEO of consulting firm Strategy Risks, wrote the book, America Second: How America’s Elites Are Making China Stronger. He concluded that Kissinger was “an agent of Chinese influence, and, for the last forty years of his life, a businessman masquerading as a diplomat.”

After his passing, Kissinger has been praised by Republicans and Democrats as a great strategist and statesman but he, like Hunter Biden, engaged in influence peddling. To be sure, Hunter’s case is different. Hunter was a drug addict and sex pervert who didn’t pay his taxes on the business deals, according to the new indictment on tax evasion charges.   He also violated gun laws, according to the other indictment of the president’s son.

He funneled some of the proceeds to the “Big Guy,” his father and current President China Joe, and that makes it extremely relevant to the forthcoming impeachment inquiry to be launched by House Speaker Mike Johnson.

The House has an obligation to make the case that China Joe has been functioning as an agent of influence for China, Russia, and other nations funneling cash to Hunter.

Yet the Republican-controlled House is threatening to impeach China Joe while many top GOP officials are still praising Kissinger and his legacy.  My report raises the question: How can Republicans impeach “China Joe” Biden for taking money from China, Russia, and other countries when “Republican” Henry Kissinger got the money flowing in the first place?

The ”Opening” to China

The roots of the China problem lie with Kissinger’s “opening” to the genocidal Chinese communist dictatorship, in the same way Neville Chamberlain’s “Peace in our time” overturn to Hitlers’ Germany paved the way for World War II.

Assuming that a Chinese-style Pearl Harbor attack is now possible, all we can do as a nation is maintain a nuclear weapons deterrent to protect the homeland.

Based on his record, we know that former President Donald J. Trump is willing to protect America but China Joe and his Attorney General Merrick Garland are doing everything within their power to destroy his candidacy. Their main weapon is “Special Counsel” Jack Smith, trained by the United Nations to prepare bogus charges before a kangaroo court.

Destroying Trump is China’s agenda. Indeed, one can argue that it is one reason they launched COVID, costing the lives of one million Americans. Trump launched trade tariffs on Chinese goods and began the process of decoupling the American economy from the communists.

But there is more on the table ready to be stolen or compromised because of influence peddling by American officials.

The Trump White House document, “Trump on China: Putting America First,” says the Chinese Communist Party “has set its sights on controlling 90 percent of the world’s most advanced industries, including robotics, biotechnology, and artificial intelligence. To win the commanding heights of the 21st century economy, Beijing has directed its bureaucrats and businesses to obtain American intellectual property — the foundation of our economic leadership — by any means necessary.”

Kazianis, the Nixon scholar, recognizes this, saying, “Now is the time for the Biden administration to take the China military threat seriously and come up with a plan to mitigate it beyond phony rhetoric and buzzwords.”

But he’s whistling Dixie.

Kissinger’s Betrayal of Free China

As House Republicans prepare to impeach China Joe, it’s important that Kazianis and other Nixon supporters and Republicans take Kissinger’s betrayal of Free China on Taiwan more seriously. That occurred when Kissinger began the process of normalizing relations with the Communist dictatorship on the mainland.

As a result of this betrayal, 23 million people with a Democratic form of government face a communist invasion, on top of the wars in Europe and the Middle East. I visited the island in 1984.  They want to keep their nation free. But American presidents such as Carter, Clinton, and Bush continued to conduct foreign policy based on Kissinger’s “One China” policy and sold them out, in much the same way that Kissinger’s Vietnam “peace accords” turned Vietnam over to the communists.

In a separate article, Kazianis offers a justification for Kissinger’s betrayal, saying, “Instead of seeking confrontation with China, Nixon and Kissinger sought to play the ‘China Card’ by deploying it against the Soviet Union.”

My new report, “Before China Joe, There Was Kissinger,” explains how the Sino-Soviet split was communist disinformation. Today, as we can easily ascertain, we have ended up with are two enemies, China and Russia, which now openly coordinate their militaries in a “no limits” arrangement. We must uncover the foreign agents of influence within the national security establishment.

How Kissinger Betrayed Nixon

So why did Nixon, an anti-communist who helped expose State Department official and United Nations founder Alger Hiss as a Soviet agent, hire Kissinger in the first place? It was a political move, necessary at the time. Nixon, in retrospect, seemed completely unaware that this Harvard professor had a secret agenda. All that he knew was that Kissinger had worked for Nelson Rockefeller, Nixon’ s adversary in the Republican Party, and Nixon thought hiring Kissinger would bring the party together in the 1968 campaign.  It worked, as Nixon won the general election in 1968 and was re-elected in 1972.

But when Nixon resigned the presidency, Kissinger survived, continuing as Secretary of State for Nixon successor Gerald Ford.

During the chaos and turmoil of the Watergate scandal, in which the CIA’s secret war on Nixon played a role, Kissinger’s other foreign policy “achievement,” the Vietnam peace accords, fell apart and Vietnam went communist. This produced the Vietnamese boat people, re-education camps, and 2 million dead in the Cambodian genocide.

The failed U.S. military effort to keep South Vietnam free from international communism backed by Red China and the Soviet Union resulted in 58,000 Americans sacrificing and dying in vain, although President Reagan hailed their “noble cause.”  The Congress, which was under the control of Democrats after Watergate, also bears responsibility for this disaster. They cut off aid to South Vietnam.

Kissinger’s anti-communist successes, saving Israel in the 1973 war with the Soviet-backed Arab/Muslim states, and the military coup that saved Chile from a communist takeover, can be attributed to the anti-communist Nixon, who took charge of American foreign policy in those specific cases.

The Untold Story

Those who doubt that Kissinger may have been a communist agent all along should look at what conservative journalists such as Gary Allen and Frank Capell wrote about Kissinger in their books and articles in the 1970s. CIA files include a Capell article. They warned us. For his part, Kissinger laughed off the charges at the time they were raised by a communist defector.

If you think such a penetration is impossible, look at what the China Joe Administration is now admitting in the case of former U.S. Ambassador Manuel Rocha, a former National Security Council official. “This action exposes one of the highest-reaching and longest-lasting infiltrations of the United States government by a foreign agent,” said Attorney General Garland, explaining Rocha’s indictment as a foreign agent for Cuba. He passed various background checks by the FBI and the State Department and spied for Cuba for 40 years. He even advised the U.S. military.

Garland doesn’t mention that the president who nominated him to the Supreme Court, Barack Hussein Obama, was under this foreign influence when he normalized relations with Communist Cuba and visited dictator Raul Castro, in much the same way Kissinger exchanged pleasantries with the greatest mass murderer in history, Mao.

Trump reversed that Cuba policy, too.

Among other questionable observations in his work on the topic of China, Nixon scholar Kazianis says that “…Beijing and Washington agreed to cooperate because they both viewed the rise of Soviet power as a bigger threat to their shared mutual interests.”

Marxist Dialectics

This was the Kissinger view. But our 2015 bookThe Sword of Revolution and the Communist Apocalypse,  features an interview with a former U.S. intelligence agency official who explained how the Sino-Soviet split deceived U.S. policymakers and weakened the Free World through what is called Marxist dialectics. His perspective was a dissenting view in the CIA and intelligence community bureaucracy.

Kissinger’s influence was negated by President Ronald Reagan, who broke with his predecessors and authored the “Reagan Doctrine” of overthrowing communist regimes. He said, “They [China and Russia] were allies and the only argument that caused their split was an argument over how best to destroy us.”

Reagan saw through the so-called Sino-Soviet split while Kissinger’s “China Card” gambit fooled many Republicans. His real agenda, which he talked about after Obama was elected as president, was a “New World Order.”

It was Henry Kissinger’s pro-China policy that made possible the scandals involving Hunter and China Joe. Republicans should not forget that fact.

The Light of Life Gives Hope in a Dark World

by Rolaant McKenzie

December 10, 2023

The Christmas season is one of the most enjoyable times of the year. There is generally a lighter mood in the air, and people tend to be a little nicer and more charitable to each other. It is a time for family and friends to take time off from the routine hustle and bustle of life to come together in love, joy, fellowship, gift-giving, and great food. Most importantly, it is a season to remember the birth of Jesus, God’s greatest gift to save fallen humanity and reconcile us to Himself.

One of my family’s favorite traditions to kick off this season is setting up our Christmas tree in the great room, the most open and inviting space of the house. We enjoy listening to and sometimes singing Christmas carols and hymns as we decorate the tree with colorful ornaments, tinsel, and bright lights. At the base of the tree, we gently place an old wooden Nativity scene given to us as a gift from friends long ago, made by the Fontanini family of Bagni di Lucca, Italy. We have always appreciated its marvelously sculptured figurines of Mary, Joseph, and a few barn animals looking adoringly at the baby Jesus sleeping in a manger.

The finale of this joyful joint effort is the placing of the star at the top of the tree, a bulb on which is an image of the baby Jesus resting on a cloud with emanating rays of light. The top of the bulb gets thinner, looking like a long teardrop, and stretches upward into a star, the beams of light forming a cross.

On shorter winter days, it is quite dark outside and in the house when I get up in the morning. As sleep starts to leave my eyes, it warms my heart to see the Christmas tree lights spilling into the hallway, for it reminds me of Jesus Christ, the Light of the World, overcoming the darkness. This reminder engenders feelings of hope for whatever I may face in the day ahead.

In the 2013 Canadian post-apocalyptic science fiction film The Colony, climate modification towers built to cool the climate by dimming the sun have malfunctioned, causing a deep freeze worldwide with perpetual cloud cover and snow blizzards. Survivors formed small colonies in underground bunkers to escape the extreme cold, with much of their time spent trying to produce enough food and control disease. Never seeing the sun caused a palpable dreariness in the hearts of colony residents, with a growing sense of futility and hopelessness.

But one of these colonies received a message bouncing off a functioning satellite, where the leader of a distant colony showed a blue sky behind him with the sun shining. He said that at their location, the snow had thawed, and they were able to grow food outdoors. He offered refuge to anyone and asked them to bring seeds to plant.

Once the location of this colony was determined, the residents, filled with hope of seeing the sun again, feeling its warmth, and living above ground with enough food, packed up what they could carry for the long, dangerous journey in the snow, the chief of which was a container of seeds.

The Magi were wise men, most likely from Persia, who were familiar with the writings of the prophet Daniel (chief of the court wise men of Persia about 500 years earlier) that included a timeline for the birth of the Messiah. They also may have known of the prophecy of Balaam of Pethor (a town on the Euphrates River near Persia), made nearly 900 years before Daniel, that said, “A star shall appear from Jacob; a scepter shall rise from Israel” (Numbers 24:17).

Seeing the light of the star from Jacob, the Magi believed the word of God and recognized the fulfillment of this prophecy. They realized this newly born King from Israel was no ordinary king and perceived His divinity. With gladness and hope, the Magi embarked on the nearly thousand-mile journey, following “His star” to Bethlehem (Matthew 2:1-12), to the house where the Christ Child was with Joseph and Mary. When they found Jesus, they worshipped Him and gave the precious gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

Even during what should be a festive season, depending on location and circumstances, the world can be a very dark place for many of us. Economic hardship, illness, the grief of missing loved ones who are estranged or have died, the tragic consequences of being in a war zone, political or religious persecution, and loneliness may feel like a continual cloud cover that brings dreariness, despair, and hopelessness.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882), on Christmas Day, 1863, wrote the poem I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day, which later became a well-known Christmas carol. The hatred, violence, and great suffering of the Civil War seemed to destroy the prospect of peace on earth and good will to men, but the sound of the church bells comforted him and reminded him that:

“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The Wrong shall fail,
The Right prevail,
With peace on earth, good-will to men.”

Seeing signs of light, even at a distance, gives hope that the darkness will give way and be overwhelmed by joy. This can cause people, like in The Colony, to take a long journey through harsh terrain and weather to fulfill the culmination of their hope of living in abundance under the sun. Or, like the Magi, travel from a faraway country to pay homage to the Word come in the flesh, the Savior of mankind (John 1:1-14).

The darkness that inundates the world and causes all kinds of suffering comes from our own failures, mistakes, and sins against God, others, and ourselves. The world needs a Savior to rescue us from the darkness of our hearts and the eternal separation from God that it brings.

Whenever I see the evergreen branches of our Christmas tree, I am reminded of the everlasting life with God that comes through the Savior, Jesus Christ. The ornaments of many varieties and colors represent all those of every tribe, tongue, and people who trust in Him and are united together, reflecting His unquenchable light and love, bringing to mind the words of Jesus:

“I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” (John 8:12)

Believe in the Lord Jesus. He is the Light of life that gives hope in the darkness, assuring its end and entrance into His eternal kingdom of light.

Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar Refuses to Pay Attorney General Ken Paxton His Back Pay

By: Amil Imani

December 9, 2023

We are talking about fairness and consistency in the treatment of elected officials. The question we should be asking is – Should an elected official face additional barriers in claiming rightful compensation, and is there room for a more compassionate approach in the face of legal intricacies?

“After being acquitted on impeachment charges, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton now says he wants back pay for the suspended period while awaiting trial. Paxton’s office claims Comptroller Glenn Hegar infringed state law and the Texas Constitution by unlawfully withholding Paxton’s income.”

In this labyrinth, a troubling narrative unfolds – one that questions fairness and consistency. The crux revolves around whether an elected official should face additional barriers in claiming rightful compensation and if a more compassionate approach is warranted in the face of legal complexities. Yet, it appears that Comptroller Glenn Hegar, Texas, remains unyielding in his stance. And pray, what is his premise?

The question is, why is he playing hardball? Many speculations are flying around as to why Hagar is denying Paxton’s salary. In a letter obtained by The Texas Tribune, Paxton’s office charges that the comptroller violated state law and the Texas Constitution “by refusing to issue salary payments to a duly elected statewide officeholder.”

Some have suggested Hegar illegally took it away to help the House. He is aware that Paxton will sue him in Austin. Austin courts are all Democrats who would not side with Paxton. Glenn Hegar knows that and wants Paxton to sue him. Paxton most likely has to spend thousands of dollars on attorney’s fees, perhaps more than the money they owe him. It appears Hegar conspired with the House and has an ulterior motive.

Hegar’s actions might also be politically motivated, possibly in collaboration with the Texas House. Indeed, this is a significant angle – Hegar’s own political aspirations may play a role in this unfolding drama. His actions could be part of a broader political strategy. We are left speculating on what political dynamics or alliances could influence Hegar’s decision.

The crux of Hegar’s argument lies in two state laws supposedly guiding his decision. These laws, modified by the Legislature, allow certain state employees to enjoy paid leave under specific circumstances. However, Hegar explicitly states that these laws do not apply to state officeholders, which is false. In this case, the selective application of laws raises eyebrows, prompting us to ponder whether justice is truly blind to elected officials or whether Hager has personal issues with Paxton.

Moreover, the comptroller’s office contends that back pay for a suspended state employee hinges on a pre-existing agreement – a notion that, without prior clarity, retroactive payment might be construed as an employment benefit. This begs the question: Should an elected official be subject to a different set of rules regarding compensation, and is a nuanced approach being overlooked?

Paxton’s office contends it violates the Texas Constitution. Drawing on the precedent of allowing agency heads to grant leave without pay deduction, Paxton’s team asserts that this principle should be extended to Paxton during his suspension, which seems reasonable.

However, Glenn Hegar, curiously enough, stands by the decision to halt Paxton’s $153,750 annual salary. Hegar’s legal counsel recommends seeking a “definitive ruling” from the Texas Supreme Court, implying that the law is so clear-cut that only the highest legal authority can provide unequivocal guidance – raising the question, is the law truly that unambiguous?

The case of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton stands out as a mystery – an innocent public servant wrongly suspended from duty and denied his financial salary. On the other hand, Hegar attempts to paint a picture of fidelity to an unambiguous law bolstered by a call for a “definitive ruling” from the highest legal authority.

One cannot help but wonder: Is there room for a nuanced perspective that upholds the principles of justice without compromising the integrity of the law? Does justice honestly wear a blindfold, or do the subtle nuances of legal interpretation sway it?

As the Texas Supreme Court looms on the horizon, the potential for a definitive ruling beckons. Will it unravel the complexities or further entangle us in the intricate legal intricacies? Only time will reveal the twists and turns in this unfolding saga, leaving us to ponder the elusive nature of justice in legal complexities.

Will America be Destroyed From the Inside?

By Paul Engel

December 9, 2023

  • Should the American way of life come to an end, would it be from a foreign foe or a domestic one?
  • Can an 18th century lawyer and a 20th century defector warn us about our future?
  • The Soviet Union may have died in the 20th century, but do its seeds still flourish in American soil?

In 1837, Daniel Webster wrote:

“I apprehend no danger to our country from a foreign foe… Our destruction, should it come at all, will be from another quarter. From the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence, I must confess that I do apprehend some danger.”

Daniel Webster [June 1, 1837]

I’ve been thinking about that statement lately. I also came across a video that I had forgotten about that’s part of an interview with Soviet defector Yuri Bezmanov. Mr Bezmanov was a former KGB agent who defected to Canada in 1970. In 1984 he gave an interview to G Edward Griffin, where he exposed a long-term Soviet plan to defeat America not by force of arms, but through psychological warfare.

You may be asking, what does a late 20th century defector have to do with a 19th century lawyer and statesman, and how could it possibly be relevant to our situation in the 2020s? I came to find out both of these men were quite prescient in their warnings to the American people.

Daniel Webster

As Daniel Webster warned, America is not being destroyed from without, but from within. Our apathy about what the federal government does, our carelessness in dealing with the bad actors that inevitably enter government services, and our negligent attitude when the Constitution is violated, has certainly led the United States to the brink of collapse. Mr. Webster went on to warn:

I fear that they may place too implicit a confidence in their public servants, and fail properly to scrutinize their conduct; that in this way they may be made the dupes of designing men, and become the instruments of their own undoing.

Daniel Webster [June 1, 1837]

Just think of the things the American people have placed blind confidence in those in government for: Retirement, health care, food and drug safety, education, and energy, just to name a few. Yet no matter how often government fails, the answer always seems to be a call to give them more. The collapse of our republic should be laid not at the feet of some nameless, faceless government actor, but on the American people who have been duped by their false promises.

However, there is one area where Mr. Webster appears to have gotten things wrong, because there was a danger from a foreign foe. They used our carelessness and neglect to not only accelerate our destruction, but also to supplant the American way with a collectivist and communist agenda.

Yuri Bezmanov

As a former KBG officer, Mr. Bezmanov was aware of many of the methods used by that organization to subvert the United States. In his 1984 interview with Mr. Griffin, he detailed some of these techniques, starting with “ideological subversion”. (Please excuse the flaws in the original transcript.)

Ideological subversion is is the process which is legitimate overt and open you you can see it with your own eyes all all you have to do all American mass media has to do is to unplug their bananas from their ears open up their eyes and they can see it … But in reality the main emphasis of the KGB is not in the area of intelligence at all according to my opinion and opinion of many defectors of my caliber only about 15% of time, money, and Manpower is spent on espionage as such the other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion or active measures активные меры in the language of of the KGB or psychological warfare what it basically means is to change the perception of reality of every American to such an extent that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves their families their community and their country. It’s a great brainwashing uh process which goes very slow and it’s divided in in four basic stages.

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

Mr. Bezmenov then goes into describe ideological subversion in some detail.

The first one being demoralization it takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years because this is the minimum number of years which requires to educate one generation of students in the country of of of your enemy exposed to the ideology of the enemy. In other words Marxism, Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of of at least three generations of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of americanism American patriotism. The result the result you can see. Most of the people who graduated in 60s, dropouts or half baked intellectuals are now occupying the positions of power in the government, civil service, business, mass media, educational system. You are stuck with them you cannot get rid of them they are contaminated they are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern. You cannot change their mind even if you if you expose them to authentic information even if you prove that white is white and black is black you still cannot change the basic perception and the logic of behavior. In other words these people uh uh the process of demoralization is complete and irreversible.

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

In 1960, then First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Nikita Khrushchev spoke at the United Nations, stating that Communism would outlast the United States. While the 1990s made it look like Mr. Khrushchev was wrong, it seems the KGB’s plans may have won in the long run.

Today we have people who refuse to believe video evidence of the atrocities committed by Hamas against civilians in Israel. Others continue to line up to get vaccinated in the face of evidence that these “vaccines” are neither effective or very safe. As Mr. Bezmenov describes, there is more to come.

Unlike in present United States there will be no place for descent in in future Marxist Leninist America uh here you can you can get uh popular like Daniel Ellsberg and filthy rich like Jane Fonda for being dissident for criticizing your pentagon. In future these people will be simply squashed like cockroaches nobody’s going to pay them nothing for their beautiful noble ideas of equality this they don’t understand and uh it will be greatest shock for them of course

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

Today, we have not only governments, but private actors censoring information they don’t like. Cancel culture attempts to punish individual and businesses for expressing ideas contrary to the agenda of the appartchik. In short, as Mr. Bezmanov describes, this phase of the demoralization of America was completed even before his 1984 interview, and we have taken in far, far beyond what the KGB had hoped.

The demoralization process in the United States is basically completed already uh for the last 35 years actually it’s over fulfilled because demoralization now reaches such areas where previously not even Comrade Andropov and and all his experts would would even dream of such a tremendous success most of it is done by Americans to Americans thanks to lack of moral standards as I mentioned before uh exposure to true information does not matter anymore a person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information the facts tell nothing to him uh even if I shower him with information with with authentic proof with documents with pictures even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him concentration camp he will refuse to believe it until he he’s going to receive a kick in the in his fat bottom when a military boot crashes his then he will understand but not before that that’s the tragic of the situation of demoralization so basically America is stuck with with demoralization and unless even if if you start right now here this minute you start educating new generation of American it will still take you 15 to 20 years to turn the tide of uh of ideological perception of reality uh back to normal normally and and patriotism.

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

Ladies and gentlemen, this was 39 years ago! We could have turned the demoralization around twice, yet the American people were unwilling to do so. Rather, we have let the American education system poison the minds of several generations with little if any challenge. We stood by while the federal government illegally meddled in our educational system, making things worse.

The KGB may have started this process, but ultimately, we have done it to ourselves.

The next stage is destabilization this time subverter does not care about your ideas and the patterns of your consumption whether you eat junk food and get fat and flab it doesn’t matter anymore this time and it takes only from two to five years to destabilize a nation uh it’s what what matters is essentials economy foreign relations defense systems uh and you can see it quite clearly that in some areas uh in such sensitive areas as as uh defense and economy the influence of Marxist Leninist ideas in the United States is absolutely fantastic I I could never believe it 14 years ago when I landed uh in this part of the world that the process will go that fast.

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

Have you seen how the collectivist ideas have taken over our businesses, foreign relations, and defense? Businesses are being forced to hire people based on the color of their skin rather than their skills. Under Obama we turned our back on two of our staunches allies, the United Kingdom and Israel, to support China and Iran. The Defense Department not only has placed the “climate change” agenda above national defense, but the transgender, racial, and sexualization agendas as well.

The next stage of course is crisis it it it may take only up to six weeks to to bring a country to the verge of crisis you can see it in in Central America now and after crisis with a violent change of of power structure and economy you have so-called the period of normalization it may last indefinitely normalization is a cynical expression borrowed from Soviet propaganda when the Soviet tanks moved into Czechoslovakia in ‘ 68 com BR said now the situation in brotherly Czechoslovakia is normalized this is what will happen in United States if you allow all the Schmucks to bring the country to crisis to promise people all kind of goodies and the paradise on Earth uh to to destabilize your economy to eliminate the principle of free market competition and to put a big brother government in Washington DC.

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

How many crises have we had since 1984? The first and second Gulf Wars, 9/11, the Afghanistan War, the dot-com bust, the housing crisis, and I’m sure there are more. Then we have the self-inflicted crises: The Patriot Act, the surveillance state, COVID, the 2020 election, and the January 6th incarcerations. Now we’re told that these are normal.

Time Bomb is ticking with every second the disaster is coming closer and closer unlike myself you will have nowhere to defect to unless you want to live in Antarctica with penguins this is it this is the last country of freedom and and possibility

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

This time bomb Mr. Bezmanov has been talking about has been ticking for almost four decades. That is four decades of propaganda being pumped into the minds of the rising generations. Four decades of people being told the lie is the truth. Four decades of opportunities to restore not only the Constitution, but the American way of life, lost. Where does that leave us? What can we do?

people well uh the the um the immediate thing that comes to my mind is of course there must be a very strong National effort to educate people in in in the spirit of real patriotism number one number two to to explain them the real danger of Socialist Communist whatever welfare state Big Brother government if people will fail to grasp the impending danger of that development nothing ever can help United States you make his goodbye to your freedom including freedoms to to homosexuals to prison inmate all this Freedom will vanish evaporating in 5 seconds including your precious lives.

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

Step one must be an effort to educate the people. As John Jay put it, to teach the rising generation to be free. We need to teach the spirit of real patriotism and the dangers of all collectivist systems, including communism. If we fail at this, then we can wave goodbye to our freedoms. There’s a problem though; in most aspects, it’s the government actors who have been leading this country to destruction.

The second thing I the moment at least part of United States population is convinced that the danger is real they have to force their government and I’m not talking about sending letters signing petitions and all this beautiful noble activity I’m talking about forcing United States government to stop aiding communism because there is no no other problem more burning and and urgent than to stop the Soviet military industrial complex from destroying what is whatever is left of the free world. …

USSR the Soviet people 270 millions of of Soviets will be eternally thankful to you if you stop aiding a bunch of murderers who sit now in Kremlin and whom president Reagan respectfully calls government Today, it is not the Soviet military industrial complex, but the academic system that is destroying the free world. Our job, our duty, if we are to remain free is to FORCE government to stop aiding communism.

Yuri Bezmanov – G. Edward Griffin Interview Transcript [1984]

If We the People wish to remain free, it’s up to us to FORCE the government to stop aiding the collectivists. I don’t mean denying their rights, but stop aiding and abetting those who are trying to destroy this country. Stop federal funding of education. Stop subsidizing the collectivist agenda. Not by writing letters or signing petitions, but by making the politicians more afraid of disappointing the American people than their donors and political parties.

Conclusion

Daniel Webster was correct when he wrote:

Make them intelligent, and they will be vigilant; give them the means of detecting the wrong, and they will apply the remedy.

Daniel Webster [June 1, 1837]

While Mr. Bezmanov is right about many things, the one thing I think he missed is the how. How do we force governments to stop supporting collectivism and start honoring their oath of office to support the Constitution? How do we educate the people in the spirit of real patriotism? We can’t expect the same government that is promoting collectivism to teach our children the spirit of liberty. That job falls to us. Actually, that job was always ours; we’ve just been convinced to turn it over to government. Now it’s time to take it back.

Will we learn the lesson Yuri Bezmanov tried to teach us back in 1984? Do we still have time to save the republic? Whether we’ve past the point of no return or not, what is our alternative? Do we simply give up and drown in the tyranny of others, or fight for every breath of freedom we can?

Should Traitors in Congress Be Charged With Treason and All Manner of Crimes?

By Andrew Wallace

December 9, 2023

Individually, a majority of both parties in Congress are guilty of all manner of crimes, including Treason.

This paper will call them out and charge them for just a few of their countless crimes.

It is the responsibility and duty of all Citizens to demand a return to Constitutional Government in the loudest and most effective manner possible.  Those who don’t are effectively perceived as the enemy.

I have written articles almost weekly in NewsWithViews on various aspects of this subject in depth. My article last week covers this problem in more depth from a different viewpoint.

CONGRESS IS CHARGED WITH TREASON

A majority of Congress is charged with Treason for giving aid and comfort to enemy invaders by allowing open borders, failing to deport them, and paying to support invaders at the expense of Americans. All of which is unconstitutional.

Article III, Section 3, Clause 1: Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.

In addition to the charge of Treason, federal funds may not lawfully be used for anything except to carry out their limited and delegated Enumerated Powers.

Invaders are being cared for at a higher level than many of our own needy citizens. In addition to favorable treatment, the invaders are depriving Citizens of food, housing, and police protection.

In New York City alone, $100 million was deducted from the police budget to support invaders, leaving the poor at the mercy of criminals. Open hostility between the invaders and the poor is building, due to this conflict over government benefits.

This reminds me of French Queen Marie Antoinette, who purportedly said of the poor, “Let them eat cake”, which brought on the French Reign of Terror. We are rapidly approaching similar initiating circumstances in the United States.

LIMITED TO ENUMERATED POWERS

The federal government’s powers are limited to the Enumerated Powers listed in the Constitution. All other powers are reserved to the states or the people. The federal government can ONLY enact laws and spend money on subjects relating to the Enumerated Powers.

Some of the Enumerated Powers are taxation, borrowing money, paying debts, regulating commerce, coining money, post offices, patents and copyrights, lower courts, immigration, declaring war and maintaining a military. You can find others in the Constitution.

As with their Oaths to the Constitution, a majority in Congress ignore the Enumerated Powers and use “The People’s” money as their personal piggy bank. This results in multiple crimes against The People.

WE THE PEOPLE CHARGE CONGRESS WITH ALL MANNER OF CRIMES.

A majority of our legislators are minions of the largest Criminal Enterprise in the world, the Parasitic Super-Rich Ruling Class (PSRRC). These criminals don’t honor their Oath of Allegiance to the Constitution and are guilty of all manner of crimes against “The People”, including the murder of millions and the destruction of entire countries in Wars for Profit (transferring “the People’s” money to the PSRRC). Congress is awash in the blood of innocents.

Following are listed only a very few of the major crimes committed by a majority of Congress (these are mostly violations of the  Constitution, the Supreme Law of The land). These points are an outline for legal charges and complaints to Congress. I did my job, now you must do yours!

Every American who participates in unconstitutional federal programs is ignoring the existing constitutional limits on federal power. (per Joanna Martin, JD)

  1. Unconstitutional formation and funding of the Departments of Labor, Agriculture, Health and Human Services, Education, Energy, Transportation, and Housing and Urban Development, et al.
  2. Failure to use tariffs to protect workers, industries, and fund government. Thousands of industries have been off-shored and millions have lost their jobs. I can’t say per se that this is a criminal act, but it is total indifference to the welfare of The People.
  3. Funding Wars for Profit that did not have any relationship to national security without a Declaration of War. I can’t say per se that this is a criminal act, but it is total indifference to the welfare of the people
  4. Allowed the unconstitutional privately-owned Federal Reserve Bank to continue to impoverish “The People” and enrich the wealthy. I can’t say per se that this is a criminal act, but it is total indifference to welfare of the people.
  5. Allowed unconstitutional fiat dollars to remain, rather than using gold and silver as required by the Constitution, which would reduce inflation and make Wars for Profit very difficult. I can’t say per se that this is a criminal act, but it total indifference to the welfare of the people.
  6. Unconstitutional funding of federal welfare programs (a state responsibility), foreign aid, and funding for illegal invaders.
  7. Continuing to fund the FBI, the most corrupt police organization in the world. The Constitution stipulates that the Militia of the Several States will enforce laws of the union (Officers would be appointed by the states, which makes law enforcement more difficult to corrupt.) I can’t say per se that this is a criminal act, but it is total indifference to the welfare of the people.
  8. Allowing un-elected bureaucrats (the Administrative State) to make laws in violation of Constitution. I can’t say per se that this is a criminal act, but it is total indifference to the welfare of the people.
  9. Allowing deprivation of Citizen’s rights to Due Process of the Law (two-tier justice system).
  10. Allowing Tax-Free Foundations to continue protecting the money and power of the wealthy forever. I can’t say per se that this is a criminal act, but it is total indifference to the welfare of the people.
  11. Allowing ESG and DOE ‘woke’ programs to continue to violate The People’s Rights and degrade their standard of living.
  12. Allowing courts or government to refuse to hear a case or petition for “Lack of Standing”, which undermines a Citizen’s Constitutional rights. This is not per se a criminal act, but it is total indifference to the welfare of the people.
  13. Continuing to enact unconstitutional laws and failing its oversight responsibilities of the Executive Branch..
  14. Allowing replacement of fiat dollars with unconstitutional fiat digital currency (CBDC). Government would know and control all expenditures and income. There would be no money in your pocket, and when electricity is out, you can’t buy anything. This is slavery.

You will note from these factual charges that Congress ignores the Constitution and does whatever the big donors, PSRRC, bribes them to do.

Note also that when Congress fails to comply with the Constitution, it is violating The Supreme Law of The Land and therefore has no legal basis for their actions or existence.

It is a Citizen’s responsibility and duty as specified in the Founding Documents to do everything possible and lawful to return to a Constitutional Republic. I will admit that I don’t know how to effectively bring charges or petition the government when the FBI is corrupt and the courts are complicit. I pray that someone out there has the smarts, courage, and resources to do it.

Some think, with good cause,  that President Trump (warts and all) could return us to prosperity and a Constitutional Republic. If elections can change things, he is the only man who could do it. All others would owe their elections and loyalty to the big donor’s money. But remember what they did to President Kennedy when he got in their way.

However, if enough citizens read this paper and demanded action by Congress, we could prevail anyway. The big donors (criminal enterprise, PSRRC, swamp, establishment, etc.), through their bribed legislators and owned media, will fight any change until it destroys us.

This is not a call to arms, far from it. That would be like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Just remember that everything being done by the criminal enterprise and their minions in Congress is designed to destroy us to make way for their New World Order. Some believe that blood must be spilled to return to a Constitutional Republic, but I don’t ascribe to that theory.

I believe that the rulers want a revolt (real or promoted by government, like January 6). Rep. Clay Higgins reported on Newsmax that Jan 6 was a government operation (false flag) with 200 embedded FBI agitators. Government believes they can crush any revolt. I would like to remind the ‘rulers’ that a revolt would mean Guerrilla Warfare, and no determined Guerrilla force has ever been defeated in the field, and certainly not now with our flag officers and demoralized military. They lost the last 30 conflicts.

In closing, the following quote from Joanna Martin JD is more than appropriate:  “Americans need to understand that the federal government would never have become so huge and intrusive without the participation of State & local governments and the American People in unconstitutional federal programs.  They willingly sold their retained Rights and Powers to the federal government—like Esau, they sold their Heritage for handouts.”

God Bless You and The Republic

Top Montana Republican Leaders Support Democrats’ Climate Fraud

By Edwin Berry

December 8, 2023

Montana’s top Republican leaders support the Democrats’ climate fraud that Klaus Schwab and his World Economic Forum (WEF) are using to take over America.

Here is the most important question about climate politics:

Do you agree or disagree with this climate alarmist statement?

The earth is warming as a direct result of human GHG emissions, primarily from the burning of fossil fuels.

There are only two possible answers: YES or NO.

There is no middle answer.

Most Democrats will answer YES.

The surprise is most Republican leaders also answer YES.

They pretend to be Republicans by promoting carbon capture and green energy, which wastes billions of dollars and won’t reduce the CO2 level.

They prefer to live in delusion rather than learn the truth. Or maybe they are not on our side.

Robert Frost said there are only two roads, and the road we take will make all the difference.

  • The YES-answer will tear down America, dumb down our people, and ultimately, make us slaves.
  • The NO-answer will build up America, raise our intelligence, and save our freedom.

The good news is we (good scientists) have proved climate alarmism is a fraud.

The bad news is no one will tell you.

Our elected officials, except for a small, honest minority, our lying media, our nutcase university professors, and our incompetent “climate” scientists control the news.

They have brainwashed almost all of us to “believe” the climate fraud.

As Joseph Goebbels wrote,

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.

Let’s start with some critical information no one will tell you.

In June 2023, Montana lost the Held v Montana (HvM) climate lawsuit. HvM is the first significant climate lawsuit brought by the public in America.

Montana lost HvM because Montana’s Attorney General Austin Knudsen purposely threw the trial and all America’s conservatives under the bus.

I saw this coming and predicted this loss in June 2022.

Knudsen stipulated at the beginning of the HvM trial that he agrees with the statement above. In fact, that statement is Knudsen’s exact wording.

Montana appealed its loss to the Montana Supreme Court (MSC). The climate outcome will determine whether America sinks or swims because HvM will set a climate law precedent for all states and America.

The problem is they did not appeal their climate stipulation. They appealed only legal technicalities that they will likely lose. Their appeals are to make you think they support climate truth. They don’t.

Our Children’s Trust of Oregon began in Montana because it’s easy for power people to control Montana’s elected officials. For all I know, this Republican betrayal of truth and freedom may go all the way to Bill Gates.

As of now, the set climate precedent is a YES answer to the question.

Unless we can do something, Montana has permanently lost the climate part of the lawsuit for America. We are on the YES-road.

We have only one opportunity to overturn HvM’s climate decision.

I wrote an Amicus Brief for Montana that defends climate truth. It will overturn HvM if MSC accepts our brief. For acceptance, we need “parties” to our brief. Being a party is free because I am paying our attorney.

None of our high-level officials will be parties to our brief. Not our governor, not our US Senator, not our candidates for US Senator, and not our two Congressmen.

They are busy promoting their candidate Tim Sheehy, who has money but no experience in holding a government office. Sheehy and US Senator Daines lied about Judge Seeley’s decision on Held v Montana.

They are testing Joseph Goebbels theory of politics. Sheehy sends me four emails every day, assuming that will buy my vote. Sheehy is aligned with the Democrats’ climate change scam.

Our brief may be the best argument for climate truth ever written for the public reader, and you can read it for free.

Here’s how you can help.

We need elected or previously elected officials in any state or the US government to be parties to our Amicus Brief.

We also need non-profit organizations to be parties to our Amicus Brief.

So far, 22 Montana legislators are parties. These are the true patriot warriors who are defending truth. One is a candidate for governor. We need him to be governor.

I wrote this article to NWV because I have only about one week to get this show together and I don’t have enough time to also find people who can help me find people and organizations.

You can help save America by being a party to our Amicus Brief

To be a party, send an email to me ed@edberry.com and to our attorney qmr@montanalawyer.com asking to be a party.

Arms Rights Roundup

By Sidney Secular

December 8, 2023

A new hornet’s nest has been established in the White House that’s all abuzz with a beehive of activity. It’s the new so-called Office of Gun Violence Prevention, established as part of the Department of Justice in September, 2023. This particular action makes “preventing gun violence” into a “permanent national priority.” The Act wildly and falsely claims that “gun violence” is the leading cause of death in children and is an “epidemic,” making the situation into a disease that one can “catch” unless protected by your “government.”  You could call this action a first, but much of what Biden does is, in fact, a first usually in depredation and tyranny, with one activity succeeding the last one in stupidity, grossness and unconstitutionality.  The titular head of this new office is none other than the ubiquitous and ridiculous Kamala Harris who seems to be everywhere at once while, fortunately for Americans, her activities seemingly go nowhere. She seems to spearhead every new office or venture Biden creates. She is the most irrepressible, irreplaceable, yet irrelevant member of the Biden team, a “stalking horse” whose eternal failures do nothing to help Americans understand the total failure of the present “administration.”

But the real leading force and director of the new office is Stephanie Feldman, a longtime Biden aide and anti-gun zealot who has made it her mission to “defeat gun manufacturers” and thus, meaning to put them out of business. Feldman’s deputy director is Robert Wilcox,  previously a Michael Bloomberg shill representing the “Everytown For Gun Safety” campaign. Feldman is also a promoter of the “Bipartisan Safer Communities Act” designed to whip up hysterical national reactions to the very few mass shootings by demented individuals! Of course, false flag shootings by our own government agencies are never mentioned as problematic – for obvious reasons! Wilcox has pushed for banning semi-automatic rifles, private gun transfers, punishing law abiding gun dealers for the acts of criminals and limiting the capacity of magazines used in self-defense firearms. Their salaries, and those of their staff, previously privately paid, will now be paid from your ever-shrinking inflation deflated net income via your tax dollars. All the while, the red carpet will continue to be rolled out for repeat criminal offenders, drug cartel operatives, child traffickers, spongers, faux refugees, and terrorists who flood across our border, sometimes accompanied by “concierge” assistance. On top of the direct federal funding of the new organization, it appears that Anti-Second Amendment organizations will receive subsidies to supplement their budgets if voluntary contributions begin shrinking.   One way or another, the average American will continue to pay for the agencies that plan and carry out our eventual enslavement.

Of course, the “justification” given for this new agency is that it will end the “scourge” of gun violence in America. The campaign cleverly equates general gun use with gun violence, something that makes no sense whatsoever. On the other hand, the increasing criminality of our culture assures that “gun violence” will also rise that is, if one calls self-defense an act of violence. As for the “use-violence” equation, this claim has been made readily apparent when the Biden Administration attempted to strip elementary and secondary schools of federal funding if they had the audacity to maintain their successful and popular archery and hunting programs. That false-flag initiative was, thankfully, rebuked by Congress but as times continue to favor the left, that also may change.

Biden continues to push for his nonsensical bans on constitutionally protected commonly used rifles falsely and deliberately characterized as assault weapons, and high capacity magazines, something he equates with improper gun use. The 1994 Federal Assault Weapons ban that Biden touts and helped institute was effective through 2004, when its sunshine period expired, and it had little if any, effect on gun related crime rates.  But Biden continues to insist that he is pursuing what the public wants, a claim contradicted by the fact that the number of background checks for purchases of firearms have never been higher, having exceeded one million per month for 50 straight months. Meanwhile, “constitutional carry” has now spread to more than half the states in recent years and it is not unlikely that as crime rates rise in blue cities and states, these liberal bastions may join the trend of an armed citizenry.

The impact of having the new gun control bureaucracy physically ensconced in the White House will be much greater than that which appears on the surface. The general influence of the gun control lobby will be enhanced, the collaborative media will be enlisted to promote and publicize the efforts of the new entity and Government officials outside the gun control coterie per se will have the real authority and resources to enforce their own dictates while being required to take the output from the “ministry of disarmament” seriously, implementing recommended changes to their agendas with ease and swiftness. The Director of the Office will be able to coordinate activities with federal agencies having policies with even minimal connections to “gun violence prevention.” Federal agencies such as the Departments of Health and Human Services, Veterans Affairs, Education, Housing and Urban Development, Homeland Security, Defense, Commerce, Interior, the Consumer Product Safety Commission as well as the United States Sentencing Commission will be immediately available to the anti-gun lobby and when the pot really starts boiling, you can be sure these will be embroiled in a whole host of new initiatives that are outgrowths of the “gun violence prevention” campaign.

Having Harris as the titular head of the gun control effort could prove even more hazardous to our national health than having her as border czar. She is a loose cannon – no pun intended! – that has positioned herself to the left of Biden on the issue and if she had her druthers would issue executive orders without the slightest consideration regarding how she might be violating the Constitution that she has sworn to uphold. Another “poisonality” in the new Office of Gun Violence Prevention is Greg Johnson, a second deputy director. He specializes in the “public health” approach to gun control that treats firearm ownership as a disease in need of a cure. Expect to see a renewal of The Centers for Disease Control Prevention’s involvement in gun control advocacy during the remainder of Biden’s reign of terror, a matter that will only become more problematic if there should be another “lockdown.”

The truth is that rates of gun accidents have been falling dramatically for over a century. Accidental firearm fatalities among children under 15 are outnumbered by drownings by a 12  to 1 ratio and motor vehicle deaths by a 25 to 1 ratio, using the CDC’s own numbers. In a sort of “American tradition,” especially boys receiving their first gun as a gift in their youth represented a rite of passage into adulthood with the implied message that you received the gift because you could now be trusted to behave responsibly. As that was the message, perhaps we should consider disarming our government that has proven it cannot be trusted to behave responsibly!

Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. — George Washington

Rethinking Economic Analysis and Strategy

By: Amil Imani

December

The latest data on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) reveals contrasting trends, raising questions about the effectiveness of recent Federal Reserve actions and the potential impact on everyday Americans. As of October 2023, the annual CPI rose 3.2%, primarily due to the “fortuitous plunge” in energy prices. However, a deeper dive into the numbers exposes an inflation rate curtailed by falling energy costs. The core CPI, which sidesteps the volatility of food and energy, remained resilient, clocking in at 4.0%.

The divergence between headline and core inflation rates underscores the interplay of economic factors.

The Federal Reserve’s aggressive interest rate hikes were expected to quell inflationary pressures. Yet, the core CPI’s stubborn rise suggests a more tempered impact on the segments excluded from the headline index. Why?

Firstly, the interest rate hikes have inadvertently tilted the playing field against renewable energy technologies. As interest rates climbed, the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) for renewables soared, jeopardizing their competitiveness vis-à-vis fossil fuels. It is a cautionary tale, reminding us that monetary policy can have unintended consequences on our pursuit of a greener future.

Higher interest rates shouldn’t impede progress toward sustainable energy – yet here we are, grappling with the repercussions on our journey towards a low-carbon economy.

The elevated interest rates provided legacy oil and gas producers a lifeline. Shielded from the onslaught of low-carbon alternatives, these traditional energy giants could maximize revenues from their aging assets. A dichotomy emerges – the Fed’s pursuit of economic stability inadvertently bolsters sectors that contribute to environmental concerns.

Are we inadvertently sacrificing our environmental goals in the pursuit of economic stability?

Moreover, the core inflation rate is not a monolithic entity; it responds to a myriad of influences. Rising shelter prices, a crucial component, witnessed a slowdown in growth due to falling hotel prices, not reductions in rent or homeowners’ equivalent rent.

It’s not just about energy and food but also the intricacies of housing costs that shape the economic narrative.

As we contemplate the repercussions of interest rate hikes, we must recognize the tangible impacts on individuals and businesses. Homeowners with mortgages face increased monthly repayments, potentially inducing financial stress. Simultaneously, enterprises grappling with higher borrowing costs might curtail investments, a potential drag on economic growth.

How are these interest rate hikes affecting you? Is your monthly budget feeling the strain, or is your business reassessing growth plans?

Furthermore, the indirect effects on the economy are equally profound. Higher interest rates could set off a wage-price spiral – a cycle of rising wages leading to higher prices, fueling further wage increases. This self-fulfilling prophecy can spawn an inflationary loop that is challenging to break.

Are we on the brink of a wage-price spiral? The interconnectivity of wages and prices can have cascading effects on our economy.

Beyond these direct and indirect impacts, such hikes can reshape expectations about future inflation and interest rates. If core inflation remains high despite rate hikes, it could dampen investment sentiments, potentially slowing economic growth.

It’s imperative to question the unintended consequences of policy decisions and their ripple effects on our collective pursuit of a prosperous and sustainable future.

The 3.2% annual increase in the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) has profound implications for the economy and individual households. Let’s dissect the potential fallouts of this uptick:

As a measure of the average price change for a basket of goods and services, the CPI signifies an augmented cost of living. This escalation strains household budgets, particularly those reliant on fixed or low incomes. The 3.2% CPI increase amplifies the financial challenges faced by everyday consumers, raising pertinent questions about the adequacy of income levels in the face of rising prices.

How does the increased cost of living impact your household budget? Are you making ends meet with the recent price surge more challenging?

Historically, the Federal Reserve responds to mounting inflation by raising interest rates. While this strategy proves effective, it concurrently amplifies the cost of borrowing, potentially slowing economic growth. The ripple effect extends to the stock market, where higher interest rates render bonds more attractive than stocks, influencing investment decisions and market dynamics.

How are you adjusting your investment strategy in response to potential shifts in interest rates? Are higher borrowing costs affecting your financial decisions?

If wages fail to keep pace with inflation, workers’ real purchasing power diminishes, culminating in a decline in the standard of living. This scenario poses challenges for individual households and introduces the specter of social unrest and heightened pressure on employers to reassess wage structures.

Have you noticed a stagnation or decline in your real purchasing power? Are calls for wage increases becoming more pronounced in your workplace or community?

The interplay between businesses passing on higher costs to consumers and anticipating prolonged high inflation can set the stage for a self-sustaining cycle known as ‘sticky’ inflation. If left unchecked, this phenomenon poses a formidable challenge for central banks as breaking the cycle becomes increasingly complex.

Do you perceive a sustained trend of rising prices, and how does this impact your expectations for future economic conditions?

The upward push of inflation can translate into elevated costs for servicing government debt, particularly if it leads to higher interest rates. This potential uptick in government expenditure on debt servicing could exert budgetary pressures, prompting government service cutbacks or tax increases.

Are you concerned about the potential repercussions of increased government debt servicing costs on public services and taxes?

While a 3.2% increase in the CPI may not be deemed excessively high by historical standards, its repercussions resonate significantly throughout, and the role of interest rates cannot be underestimated. Their direct and indirect impact is felt across various sectors and individual lives, shaping the contours of our economic reality.

How confident are you in the economic outlook? Are you adjusting your investment strategy based on expectations of future inflation?

So, are we treading the right path, or do we need to recalibrate our economic strategies?

Kingdom Christianity

By Coach Dave Daubenmire

December 7, 2023

Christ isn’t just the soon coming King.  He is King right now!

For the most part, Christians are the most defeatist group of people you will ever hang out with.

Not in their personal lives, but in their view of the world.  From a PERSONAL perspective they are, for the most part, optimistic.  They believe God will bless them in the personal walk…. finances…health…relationships…but in regards to where we are in world affairs, they are mostly pessimistic people.

Their “faith” is more of a life enhancement tool rather than a Kingdom building focus.  It is the rotten fruit of the “name it claim it” prosperity gospel that has permeated American Christianity since the advent of “Christian” television.

Make no mistake about it, much of Christianity has been hi-jacked by slick salesmen who masquerade as “ministers,” selling a product designed to appeal to the masses.  These marketing techniques have worked wonderfully for the few and has given us a new genre’ of Christianity…the millionaire pastor.

Take a look at this list of millionaire pastors!  Read it and weep.  Jesus warned us “it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.”

Today, rich men run the kingdom.  No wonder Christianity is in such trouble.

Kingdom Christianity.  That is an interesting phrase.  You don’t hear much about that from the pulpit these days, even though the Founder of Christianity taught us to pray that His “kingdom would come…on earth, as it is in Heaven.”  Today, many pastors are using HIS Kingdom to expand THEIR kingdom.  Did you know that many of our Christian Celebrity Pastors are now expanding and creating “campus” Christianity with “ministries” in more than one location?

Much of it is fluff…designed to draw in Gen Xers with a much more popular form of gospel…a judgement free one designed to make folks comfortable in their self-centeredness.  Christianity was launched to expand a Kingdom, not to give the subjects six steps to a better life.  Authentic Christianity is about dying to self, fighting evil, speaking the TRUTH, and exposing the unfruitful works of darkness.

But that does not fill the pews.  Kingdom Christianity launches its adherents onto the front lines of a Spiritual War where the souls of men are the prize.  War, especially Spiritual, is dirty business.  Getting drafted onto team Jesus is a military assignment where we are called repeatedly to “lay down” our lives for the advancement of a Kingdom.

CHRIST IS KING and His followers are commanded to “go into all the world” and teach others to observe all He has commanded us.  That is called “the Great Commission.”  Commission is defined as a “charge; order; mandate; authority given.”  It is a military term.  Is that what those millionaire pastors are doing?  Are they engaged on the frontlines of a war or are they running a marketing campaign for their flock’s personal improvement?

Paul warned us of them who “through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you…”  Shysters.  Blindly obeying the edicts of Luciferian controlled “government.”  Shutting down services…promoting vaxes…bowing to Caesar.  Tens of thousands of Churches took government money during the fake pandemic.  Check this out

No man can serve two masters…you cannot take money from Caesar and claim to serve Christ.

But I continue to remain optimistic.  I believe, to plagiarize Winston Churchill, that this will be American Christianity’s finest hour.  We must get our focus off the “end-times” and engage the battle during the present times.  Too many Believers are endeavoring to live out pre-written history.  A new genre’ of Christian leader is rising.

What one believes, matters.  I often used the phrase “if you think you CAN or if you think you CAN’T you’re probably right” as a coaching axiom.  Currently, most of the American Church is waving the white flag, surrendering to the ideology that the Bible teaches that things are only going to get worse.  Ignoring Christ’s clear command to “Occupy till I come.”

Most Christians have been taught to think linearly, in a straight line.  We think in terms of minutes, hours, days, years, decades, and centuries.  But God works in cycles…patterns, Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall.  He moves from dark to light.  “In the beginning the earth was void and without form and darkness was upon the face of the deep.  AND GOD SAID LET THERE BE LIGHT!”  And suddenly light WAS!!

America is nearing the end of a very dark period. In 1947 the SCOTUS criminalized public Christianity.  Our nation slogged through the darkness of Viet Nam, recreational drugs, Timothy Leary, tune in turn on drop out, if it feels good do it, the sexual revolution, the slaughter of the pre-born, make love, not war, who are you to judge…the complete overthrow of Christian morality.

But the sun is starting to come up.  A new day is dawning.  God fearing Americans are awakening from their punch-drunk state and are finally starting to get their sea legs under them. The momentum is swinging as Moms and Pops are realizing that their families are under assault.  Disney is dying.  Bud Light is dead.  The NASCAR crowd is beginning to push back.  The light is starting to creep over the horizon.

Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

Christianity is a story of victory.  The triumph of light over dark, good over evil, right over wrong.  What if most of Christianity has gotten it all wrong?  What if the greatest revival the world has ever seen is just over the horizon?  What if Satan and his minions are about to go down for the count?  What if a new day is dawning in the world?  It is always darkest before the dawn.

Stand up! stand up for Jesus! Ye soldiers of the cross; Lift high His royal banner, It must not suffer loss:  From vict’ry unto vict’ry His army shall He lead, Till every foe is vanquished and Christ is Lord indeed!

Christ is KING not just Lord!!

The Valley of the Dry Bones

by Lee Duigon

December 7, 2023

As a wave of virulent antisemitism sweeps the Western world, my Bible-reading has brought me back to Ezekiel 37—the prophet’s vision of the valley of dry bones.

The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones, and caused me to pass by them round about: and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry. And He said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? (Ezekiel 37: 1-3)

What could be more desolate then a valley full of dry, dead bones? Yet as Ezekiel watched, God clothed the bones with flesh and sinew, put skin on them, brought up a wind to breathe life into them, and stood them on their feet, fully restored.

There followed the prophecy: Thus saith the LORD God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel. And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves, and shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live… (verses 12-14).

I’m not a theologian, but I think we err if we try to interpret this vision literally: it’s bigger than that. Much bigger.

A valley full of dry bones seems like a vivid metaphor for spiritual death, spiritual desolation. There are more than a few such valleys in our world today. Our public schools and colleges, our corrupt politics, what we laughingly call our “entertainment” media, and on and on. Can these bones live again? Ezekiel said, “O Lord God, thou knowest” (v. 3).

How many times has this fallen world tried to wipe out God’s people Israel? The Assyrians, Babylonians, and Romans uprooted them from their homeland and scattered them over the world: the image of sowing seeds comes immediately to mind. The Jews returned to their homeland—after yet another attempt to exterminate them, this time by Nazi Germany– and established a new state of Israel in 1947. Today they fight to keep it.

But aside from the enduring importance of Israel—is our reach wide enough and long enough to grasp the full sense of this prophecy?

Something tells me that it isn’t.

The Son of God came in the flesh, did His Father’s works on earth, was crucified, dead, and buried. Dead bones in a stone tomb. And then, as He said He would, He rose.

He is the means by which all the dry bones shall be given life. Even those that don’t realize that they’re dead. God created the world for life, not death. His sovereign power will restore that life—life where human sin and hubris has planted only death.

We have entered our current Christmas season. It’s fitting that we celebrate. We ought to be overcome with joy. “Joy to the world, the Lord has come!” The hymn gets it right.

Those desolate valleys are waiting to be watered, planted, and restored to life.

Pearl Harbor Attack Dec. 7, 1941: Survivor S. J. Hemker Remembered

by Rees Lloyd

December 7, 2023

December 7, 2023 , Pearl Harbor Day, marks the 82nd anniversary of the Japanese air attack on U.S. naval and air installations at Pearl Harbor, HI, at 7:53 a.m., Dec. 7, 1941 — without a declaration of war.

It was then the worst attack on American soil in history: Some 2,403 died, 2008 of them Navy personnel; another 1,178 were wounded

Eighteen Navy ships, including the U.S.S. Arizona, were sunk or damaged. Almost all the planes at the island bases were destroyed or damaged while still on the ground.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt memorably called December 7, 1941, “a day which will live in infamy” in his dramatic speech to Congress, which then declared war on Japan.

Only the sneak attack on America by radical Islamic terrorists on 9-11-2001 in New York resulted in more deaths. But for many Americans of this generation — and millions of immigrants, legal and illegal — the meaning, the significance of Pearl Harbor, is not fully known, or appreciated.

One American for whom the Patriot Harbor attack did “live in infamy” for all of his long, productive, and patriotic  100-year life,  was  Pearl Harbor survivor Shelby John (“S.J.”) Hemker of Banning, California. Although he has now gone to God, his story reveals the nature of those Americans who  served at Pearl Harbor; indeed, his story reveals the nature of America— then.

Shelby John (“SJ”) Hemker, a poor “country boy” whose childhood was the Great Depression, joined the Navy at 17. He was at Pearl Harbor near the end of his first four-year tour of duty when the Japanese attacked. He survived that horror, and went on to be a three-war combat Navy veteran — WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. After retirement from the Navy, he continued to serve America in peacetime as a life member of The American Legion.

Hemker, by his giving, patriotic life of service to God and country  in war and in peace,  was an exemplar of the Greatest Generation of WWII. Beloved by his comrade wartime veterans and his community, S.J. Hemker was honored by both on January 10, 2019, at a celebration of his 100th Birthday.

Representatives of the linked San Gorgonio Pass cities of Banning and Beaumont in Riverside County, CA, presented him with Proclamations honoring him. Commendations were presented by his American Legion San Gorgonio Post 428 and other Posts, and veterans organizations from as far away as Patriot Outreach based in Kansas.

Many  words were spoken there about Pearl Harbor, its horror, and its meaning, then and now. The most poignant of those words were those of S.J. Hemker, himself, in a remembrance of Pearl Habor, and of what it should mean, in an earlier interview with me.  It was my honor to read those words of S.H. Hemker about Pearl Harbor at the celebration of his life, and is an honor to publish his own words here:

“Ordinarily, we would have been at sea, We were at Pearl Harbor because we had to repair an engine that had been sabotaged at the shipyard back in California. I was up on the fantail of our ship, the USS New Orleans, a heavy cruiser, with the Chief Master at Arms. The Quartermaster was there, getting ready to raise the flag,” S.J. Hemker recalled.

“It was 7:53 a.m. when we saw the Japanese planes. They were flying so low I could see the pilots’ faces in the cockpit. They were grinning at us as they went down toward Battle Ship Row. Grinning at me and the Chief. They were so close, you could have thrown something at them and hit them. A potato, maybe. They were that close. Just skimming the top of the water. Torpedo planes. The pilots grinning at us,” Hemker reluctantly, but vividly recalled.

“The loudspeakers blared: ‘Man your battle stations – the Japs are attacking’. All hell broke loose… It was terrible, horrible, …,” he said, pausing in his remembrance.

“I spent the next eight hours down in the magazine loading for our five-inch anti-aircraft guns. We fired everything. If we had been hit, that would have been it for us in the magazine. We would have been blown up. We had a big crane over the top of our ship. I think that’s what saved us,” he stated matter-of-factly as to his own circumstance, then somberly related:

“The Arizona capsized. Thirteen hundred men went down with her. Half the guys I was with in boot camp died on the Arizona. That’s where the Memorial is today. They say that oil still leaks out every day. Those guys…they’re still down there,” Hemker said quietly, his voice trailing off, as if physically turning away from a memory, and reality, which was still too painful to talk about.

Getting Hemker to talk about it at all was no easy task. Like many of his fellow World War II veterans, he didn’t talk about his war experiences, never expected any thanks or gratitude, and never, ever boasted about it, despite the fact that after Pearl Harbor he served America in battles and combat zones for the duration of WWII, in the Korean War, and in Vietnam.

Hempker, a widower, roguishly handsome into his 90’s and possessed of a sly sense of humor, for years charmed the ladies in the American Legion Auxiliary with his country gallantry. He was universally admired by his comrade veterans in the American Legion. “I’m not able to do what I used to do, but I do what I can,” he said.

Hemker’s beloved wife died more than 30 years earlier. For the last thirteen years of her life, Hemker’s wife was bedridden, unable to perform the most basic of everyday tasks of life, totally dependent. It says a great deal about the kind of man S.J. Hemker was, that for all of those thirteen years Hemker cared for her, saw to her every need, lovingly dedicated his life to her care, until her death did them part.

Hemker had four sons. All four,  like their father, are veterans who served in the Vietnam war. Hemker had no biological daughter. But, in his declining years, he had for more than fifteen years lived in his own room in the home of a loving “daughter-in-fact” if not of biology, Sue McConnell, and her husband,

No daughter has rendered more loving care to a father than had Sue McConnell to S.J. Hemker.

“I call him my ‘Dad’ because he is that to me. I couldn’t love him more,”  Sue,told me. She had known Hemker for thirty-seven years, during which she had often risen up in fury when the VA had not done its duty “to this great man, this hero, my Dad.”

Reflecting on Pearl Harbor after surviving it, Hemker, who had lost his eyesight,  but not his vision for America, observed:

“We Americans should never forget. If we forget our past and those who died, we won’t have a future. A free one, anyway. Look at what happened on 9-11. More people were killed on that day than were killed at Pearl Harbor. It can happen again,” he warned.

“I don’t think people remember Pearl Harbor and what it means, the way they used to do,” Hemker concluded. “That’s too bad. A lot of us can’t forget. An awful lot of really good people died to keep America free. They shouldn’t be forgotten.”

These are the last words of S.J. Hemker, veteran and self-described “ordinary American…just a common man,”  about the attack on Pearl Harbor,  that “day of infamy” on Dec. 7, 1941;  about those who died in it;  and about those who survived it and continued to serve until victory in WWII, preserving our American freedom.

Hemker, sad to say, is no longer with us. Although reaching his 100th Birthday on January 10, 2019, Hemker later in the year “transferred to Post Everlasting,” as we, his American Legion comrades, say.

Although S.J. Hemker may no longer be with us physically, he can be and should be with us spiritually—the spirit of patriotic love of  country and service in its defense that he exemplified, as did and do so many others of the WWII Greatest Generation. Neither his life nor his words should be forgotten, if, as he warns, we Americans are to remain free.

May the God that S.J. Hemker served so faithfully bless and keep him. May the country he served so faithfully for all of his 100 years on earth, always honor and remember him.

FOR GOD AND COUNTRY FOREVER; SURRENDER TO TYRANNY—NEVER!

Destroying America’s National Identity: There Will Be No Peaceful Solution

By Frosty Wooldridge

December 7, 2023

As of three years ago when Joe Biden took over as president, your citizenship no longer means zilch.  Biden or his handers have engineered the largest invasion of any country in the history of the world.  As of 35 months ago, Biden invited 8,000,000 illegal aliens from over 100 countries to breach our borders. Islamic terrorists enjoy free access to our country.  Even the FBI Chief Wray said we stand at the highest level of terrorist threats, ever.

At the same time, the majority of our U.S. Congress sits on their hands doing absolutely NOTHING to stop the invasion.  Now, we feature somewhere between 4 and 8 million Muslims whose prime directive from the Qur’an is: “Convert or kill all non-believers.”  They have not and do not intend to EVER become Americans loyal to our U.S. Constitution.  They intend to install Sharia Law bit by bit, city by city, year by year, decade by decade…until America looks like Europe.

America’s National Identity Is Being Destroyed

If you think those 12 million illegals and now another 8 million illegal border jumpers intend to become loyal, flag waving American citizens…you need to see a psychiatrist.   If you think that the 4 to 8 million Muslims imported into the United States intend to serve our Constitution, you would be a fool.  Already in Baghdad/Detroit, Michigan where they’ve created their own caliphate, they promised to not vote for Biden because he supports Israel.  Gees, who would have thought that American Muslims would stand by the Jews of Israel?  The reality is, those American Muslims would like to exterminate all Jews from this planet.

If you looked at Dublin burning in the past week, you watched what’s coming to America.  If you watched tens of thousands of British Muslims marching in favor of Hamas over the past month, you realize that the British can’t do anything to stop them. Why? Because of their numbers, those Muslims would burn London down.  The United Kingdom killed itself by importing that barbaric religion right into its guts.

Reporter Theophilus Chilton wrote an incredibly incisive article on what’s happening to Ireland and all of Europe. They are SO deep into their immigration nightmares, they can’t escape, and thus the only solution is conflict.  (Source: www.Cairco.org , “There is no peaceful Solution”,  Chilton.)

Chilton said, “As most of us are surely aware by now, the fermenting demographic troubles in Ireland finally boiled over last week in a flurry of rioting… The deeper cause, of course, is the systematic set of policies enacted by globalist, transnational, mostly foreign “elites”

who have ruled Ireland for over a decade to the detriment of Ireland’s native population. These policies have methodically disadvantaged actual Irish people — economically, demographically,

and legally – while perpetrating a type of anarcho-tyranny to the advantage of vast numbers of third world “migrants” who have brought in huge amounts of crime and corruption…

“Of course, Ireland (like most other western nations, including our own) is ruled by a transnational body of foreign satraps who don’t give a rip about the native peoples of the countries they occupy. Indeed, violent resistance to illegitimate governments which despise their own people is entirely proper and right.”

There will become a point in American cities where will have to fight for our rights over Sharia Law.  Or, we devolve into Islam’s nightmare for men, women, children and animals.

“The fact of the matter is that we’ve reached the point where there is no peaceful solution to the problems faced in the West by the mass importation of hostile, unassimilable foreigners nor the politicians who hate their own people,” said Chilton.

Ireland Faces Horrific Problems That Do Not Enjoy A Peaceful Solution

Chilton stated, “Ireland once was homogenous, relatively high IQ and high trust, was the Celtic Tiger with lots of prosperity. Then globalists decided that Ireland needed tons of “refugees” just like the rest of Europe and suddenly that prosperity, safety and high trust vanished.”

As millions of illegal aliens pour over the border from God only knows where, and averaging 10,000 daily, can you imagine what our national identity will become?

With this invasion nightmare accelerating, do you see any elected representatives in Congress doing a single stinking thing to stop it.  Yes, a few speak up like Josh Hawley (R-MO), Tom Cotton (R-AR), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), but no one else lifts a finger.

At some point, we will lose our national identity into a black hole of multicultural chaos and conflict.  Why can’t the majority of Americans see it?  Why aren’t our elected officials stopping it?  Why are we supporting national suicide by our silence?

Guess Who’s Still Running the Country

By: Amil Imani

December 6, 2023

The policies of the Obama and Biden administrations have been frequently compared due to their shared history. As Vice President under Obama and now President through a stolen election, Joe Biden’s policies often seem to mirror his predecessor. This article aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of critical comparisons between the two administrations, specifically regarding border control, economic performance, Middle Eastern policy, relations with Russia, the Department of Justice, and American national pride.

Border Control

Under the Obama administration, there was no border control with an “open border” policy, which let in droves of illegal immigrants across the US-Mexico border—Ditto under the Biden administration.

The Biden administration even went several steps ahead with plans to boost refugee admissions, preserve deportation relief for unauthorized immigrants, and not enforce the “public charge” rule that denies green cards to immigrants who might use public benefits like Medicaid.

Economic Performance

Both the Obama and Biden administrations created a stagnant economy. Period.

Middle Eastern Policy with Terrorist Organizations Under both administrations, Iran’s regime was covertly and overtly empowered. The Obama-era policy of engagement with Iran (the Iran Nuclear Deal or the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA) continues under the Biden administration. However, seemingly on paper, Biden recently vowed to “hold Iran accountable” for its alliance with Russia and its support of anti-Israeli militants such as Hamas, creating a mirage of a change in policy direction.

Both administrations failed in their handling of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with groups like Hamas getting well-funded under their watch.

Relations with Russia and Ukraine Under both the Obama and Biden administrations, Russia has taken aggressive actions, including the annexation of Crimea and the invasion of Ukraine. Both administrations failed to deter Russian aggression adequately. Biden, who was in charge of Ukraine policy under Obama, bears a heavy responsibility for Washington’s inaction and its consequences.

Department of Justice

The Obama and Biden administrations weaponized the Department of Justice (DOJ). They were also guilty of various DOJ actions, such as handling the Fast and Furious operation and issues related to whistleblowers. The DOJ remains a critical institution in upholding the rule of law. The Biden administration has faced its share of dubious decisions about investigations and prosecutions.

American Pride

Finally, both administrations have attacked American pride through various factors, including political, economic, and social dynamics.

Therefore, it is evident that Obama is “still running the show” without any doubt.

The scariest thing is that Biden’s story is being blocked on social media and is nowhere in the NY Times, the L.A. Times, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and CBS, and is minimally covered in the WSJ.

Let us keep in mind that there are not many differences between the D.C. Beltway elitist class politicians of either party.

Has the American Spirit and Work Ethic Evaporated?

By Sid Secular

December 6, 2023

No matter how early you get up in the morning, there are mobs of people outside — in the streets, on public transit, in the gyms, and in the shops. You’re constantly amazed at the spirit, the toil, the focus, and the raw skill that is typical of the scene . . . in a modern Asian country, something that was once typical of the hubbub in American “hubs” like New York City. Today, however, in the US, everything seems broken, listless, malfunctioning and the product of decay. The entrepreneurial spirit still resides in the Asians who seem to have taken over that particular ethic. Many Americans though animated by anomie, if you will, are lazy, irrational, socially touchy, and tend to gripe about their lot in life, though sadly not without a lot of justification.

The blue-collar workers and white-collared professionals may have the credentials, but they don’t have the competence, the experience and in many cases, the desire to be what Americans once were in this world – a driving force for personal and national betterment. This is especially true of the younger set many of whom allow themselves to get set in their less than satisfactory beliefs and behaviors. Many don’t have any real purpose save for personal satisfaction in whatever means decided upon. Any one-time religious zeal that these young people may have had, has been purposely attacked and drained from them by a secular and atheistic culture whose main motto is, “if it feels good, do it!” Today, people – even older people! – lack pride in what they do, and suffering from a lack of fulfillment, look for things to complain about, get litigious, constantly try in any of their efforts to cut corners but in the end, they simply can’t seem to cut it.

The Covidiocy killed many small businesses and undercut whatever entrepreneurial spirit remained in the populace. Only about half those sent home had the motivation to return to their offices when the lockdowns ended. Between the lack of workers’ competence and the lack of workers altogether, we see “help wanted” signs omnipresent, signs that, in their increasing need, even present the salaries of the positions to be filled! Anger, resentment, cynicism, and bitterness towards the world seem to be the milieu in which everyone is immersed. Familiar things of the culture feel broken and it has gone on for so long that all is accepted as normal.

Is there a way out of this decline? I would say, no – at least not with the “leaders” we keep voting into office.

World Health Organization (WHO) Declares Truth as “Disinformation”?

By Bradlee Dean

December 6, 2023

“Vaccination is a huge delusion: …it has never saved a single life; but that it has been the cause of so much disease, so many deaths, such a vast amount of utterly needless and altogether undeserved suffering, that it will be classed by the coming generation among the greatest errors of an ignorant and prejudiced age, and its penal enforcement the foulest blot on the generally beneficent course of legislation.”  -Alfred Russel Wallace, O.M., F.R.S. 1898

Regardless of how people want it to be said or how people want it to be heard, the truth of the matter is that the plandemic has been exposed for what it is, a conspiracy (Jeremiah 11:9).  Just ask them.  Start the video below at 1:17.

They are not able, nor will they ever be able to conceal the truth of the matter when it comes to the last 3 years of the crisis that they have created (Luke 12:2).  This we all know.

Now knowing this, the World Health Organization (WHO) wants to force lock up anyone and everyone who is responsible for exposing them for who they are and what it is that they are responsible for doing.

The People’s Voice recently reported, that the criminal organization WHO Declares Global Disinformation Crisis: “We Must Lock Up Conspiracy Theorists”.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has urged governments to declare a “global disinformation emergency” and begin locking up people who spread non-mainstream opinions online.

Over 200 health journals funded by the WHO called on the United Nations’ global health body to declare martial law worldwide due to the ongoing threat of alternative news. They also urged government’s to impose strict new lockdowns due to the ongoing threat of so-called “global boiling.”

“Over 200 health journals call on the United Nations, political leaders, and health professionals to recognise that climate change and biodiversity loss are one indivisible crisis and must be tackled together to preserve health and avoid catastrophe. This overall environmental crisis is now so severe as to be a global health emergency,” declared the BMJ, a UK weekly peer-reviewed medical journal, in a statement on Wednesday.

Infowars.com reports: What the scientists failed to mention is that they’re funded by the very global body they’re calling on to implement the health emergency.

In other words, the WHO is essentially laying the groundwork for it to declare another emergency similar to the one they issued in response to the COVID plandemic in 2020.

This comes as WHO Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus urged other nations to adopt its Pandemic Accords in part to combat “disinformation.”

COVID-19 “eroded trust between people, governments and institutions, fueled by a torrent of mis- and disinformation,” Ghebreyesus claimed on Thursday.

Israel in the Crosshairs: Part 2, More Forgotten History

By Cherie Zaslawsky

December 5, 2023

Israel is the only nation on Earth that inhabits the same land, bears the same name, speaks the same language, and worships the same  God that it did 3,000 years ago. –Charles Krauthammer

Most people either don’t know the history behind the formation of Israel and the Arab states, or have forgotten it. Here’s a brief refresher.

THE BRITISH MUCK THINGS UP

After WWI and the defeat of the Ottoman Empire, the League of Nations gave the British control of what was called Mandatory Palestine. This consisted of quite a large block of land, and the plan, as stated in the 1917 Balfour Declaration, expressed the British commitment to carve out a national homeland in the Holy Land for the Jews—a plan supported by the Allies as well, including President Woodrow Wilson. France was very much on board. Here’s an excerpt from a letter from the French Secretary-General of the Foreign Ministry Jules Cambon:

…it would be a deed of justice and of reparation to assist, by the protection of the Allied Powers, in the renaissance of the Jewish nationality [nationalité juive] in that land from which the people of Israel were exiled so many centuries ago.

Note that Biblical Israel includes land east of the Jordan River.

WINSTON’S HICCUP AND BRITAIN’S SLEIGHT OF HAND

Then came “Winston’s hiccup.”

Churchill was Britain’s Colonial Secretary at the time, and legend has it that due to his drinking more than usual, his pen slipped—hence the odd zigzag of the Transjordanian border.

Colorful legend aside, Britain did some fancy footwork in 1922, perhaps caving to Arab pressure, because suddenly, the large block of Mandatory Palestine that encompassed tracts on both sides of the Jordan river shrunk to only the narrow strip west of the Jordan—about 25% of the original territory. And now that 25% was slated to be split into two countries.

What happened to the other 75% so generously carved out of British Mandatory Palestine?

It went to the Arabs. We know it today as Jordan.

This was all the more surprising since:

The Mandate’s primary purpose was to reconstitute the Jewish National Home in Palestine, and since Israel’s ancient tribes had existed on both sides of the Jordan River, the Zionists anticipated the national home would extend beyond the eastern bank of the river and into Transjordan.

Indeed, when the Mandate was finally approved by the League of Nations in 1922, to the chagrin of the Zionist leader Chaim Weizmann, it contained a revised text enabling Britain to detach Transjordan from the Jewish national home. (Emphasis mine)

In other words, 75% of British Mandatory Palestine was awarded to the Arabs under the pretense that it hadn’t been in the Mandate in the first place! This was an astonishing betrayal of the British promise to create a Jewish homeland in the ancestral land of the Jewish people. Evidently, the Brits had essentially promised much of the same land to both the Jews and the Arabs, and had to weasel out of it.

PEELING THE PIE

So how to divide the remaining slender slice of the pie?  British Lord Peel came up with the Peel Partition that proposed about 85% of the remnant of British Mandatory Palestine to the Arabs, and about 15% to the Jews. This was followed by similar slivers for the Jews and most of the land to the Arabs in the 1938 Woodhead Partition.

By now, the Jews were willing to settle for anything they could get. And the Arabs? Refusal after refusal. Ironically, had they accepted the Peel Partition, most of what is Israel today would have been an Arab state! At least in that instance, Arab recalcitrance actually served to benefit the Jews they sought, and still seek, to destroy.

In 1946, ten years after the Arab Revolt of 1936, and after proposing various ways to divide the remainder of the territory to no one’s satisfaction, the British washed their hands of the whole affair, summarily handing it over to the United Nations.

HOW THE DECK WAS STACKED AGAINST THE JEWS

Two facts muddied the waters in the decade or so prior to the UN taking over British Mandatory Palestine.

Much to the shame of the Brits, they actually caved to Arab pressure and denied entry into the Jewish homeland to Jewish refugees from Europe who were fleeing the Nazis! Not only that, but as Victor Sharpe puts it:

During its administration up until 1947, Britain severely restricted Jewish immigration and purchases of land while turning a blind eye to massive illegal Arab immigration into the territory from neighboring failed and stagnant Arab states. These illegal alien Arabs were the originators of those Arabs today who primarily call themselves Palestinians. (Emphasis mine)

The second mindboggling fact I learned while leafing through Joan Peters’ masterpiece of investigative journalism, From Time Immemorial.

In 1948, the UN changed the definition of…wait for it…”refugee”! Instead of people who were forced to leave a “permanent” home, the UN, in an underhanded Orwellian maneuver, redefined the term solely for Arab refugees, as  “any persons that had been in Palestine for [a minimum of] only two years before Israel’s statehood in 1948.” (Peters, From Time Immemorial, p.4) Hence grandfathering in nearly all the recent illegal Arab immigrants as “refugees”—who would later claim the “right of return.” Not to be outdone, UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, further redefined “refugee” to include the descendants of those Arabs! Talk about fishy…

THE JEWS FINALLY GET THEIR HOMELAND

In November 1947, the U.N. proposed 43% of the remains of British Mandatory Palestine for the Arabs, and 55% for the Jews. The Jews said thank you. The Arabs said nothing doing. Six months later, in May 1948, the state of Israel was born, only to be immediately attacked by Arab armies from Egypt, Transjordan, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. Not a very friendly welcome for the skinny new kid on the block. And that was, of course, only the beginning.

Miraculously, the Israelis won that war, and with it, more territory. After their humiliating defeat, the Arabs plotted their next offensives. Their surefire plan was to join forces once more and push the Jews into the sea in the 1967 Six Day War, but much to their chagrin, Israel not only won, but did so within a week, while regaining the Sinai Peninsula the Gaza Strip, Judea and Samaria, aka the West Bank, eastern Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights. Maybe a lesson there.

However, the Arabs regrouped and attacked again, just six years later, in 1973, on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. This time Israel won territory in the Golan Heights, but withdrew from the land it had won from Syria the following year, as per a “disengagement” treaty. More “land for peace” wishful thinking.

A TRAGEDY OF THEIR OWN MAKING: THE ARABS’ REFUSALS

Even though Palestine was never a nation, so Arabs living in Gaza and the West Bank cannot be bereft of a nation that never existed, they are nevertheless in a predicament, and that is true whether we call them Palestinians or Egyptians, Jordanians, or simply Arabs. So how did that predicament come about, and who bears responsibility for it?

As Victor Sharpe reminds us: “…the Arab League, meeting in Khartoum in August 1967, delivered the infamous three no’s: No peace with Israel, no negotiations with Israel, no recognition of Israel. From 1937, Israeli politicians have five times offered the Arabs a state. Five times the Arabs have rejected the Israeli offers. The reason being the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians want no state next to Israel. They want no Jewish state to exist. Period!” (Emphasis mine)

And from Dr. Sergio Simon’s open letter to Queen Rania of Jordan:

Instead of absorbing them [the Palestinian refugees] into the Jordanian society, they were kept under inhumane conditions in concentration camps to pressure Israel and the United Nations. Nobody wanted the Palestine “problem” solved. … there were also the Jewish refugees from the Arab countries as well!

Hundreds of thousands of Jews had to flee Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Algeria, Tunisia, Yemen and Morocco without anything, leaving behind all their belongings and properties… But Israel did not put them in camps. They were readily absorbed in the Israeli society and today…they are lawyers, doctors, teachers, university professors in Israel. There is no more a “Jewish refugee” problem. This could have happened with the poor Palestinians had King Hussein in Jordan, Gamal Abdel Nasser in Egypt and Shukri al-Kwatli and Hafez al-Assad in Syria done the same. (Emphasis mine)

ARAFAT’S GAME OF CAT AND MOUSE

What is the ultimate goal of the Palestinians? Is it possession of their own state?

If so, why did Yassar Arafat agree to the1993 Oslo Accords and then promptly violate virtually all the agreements? And why did he turn down the Camp David II Accords in 2000 proffered under Ehud Barak working alongside President Clinton? That plan would have given the Palestinians 97% of Gaza and the West Bank and a Palestinian Authority (PA) capitol in East Jerusalem. This was everything they’d asked for with a cherry on top! Only 3% shy of the UN’s original plan for a Palestinian state, yet Arafat responded with the Second Intifada.

More telling yet, when Clinton tried making the plan even more appealing to the Arabs, Arafat reportedly admitted in a phone conversation with Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador to Washington, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, that it was “the best offer imaginable.” (Meir-Levi: History Upside Down p. 98) Yet Arafat rejected it cold and stepped up the violence. Why?

It would seem that the PLO, and its offshoot the PA, have been playing cat and mouse with Israel for decades. And according to high-ranking Communist defector Ion Mihai Pacepa, this is not by accident:

Brezhnev, according to Pacepa, carried it one step farther when Carter came into office. He suggested to Pacepa that Carter might fall for Yassir Arafat PRETENDING to renounce violence and pretending to seek peace negotiations. He persuaded Arafat to do this by telling him that the West would shower him with gold and glory. It did. Billions of dollars and a Nobel prize. Ceausescu warned Arafat he would have to pretend over and over again. Abbas is still pretending. (Emphasis mine)

This kind of pretense is also sanctioned in the Koran, as Taqiya—the act of lying for a supposedly worthy goal. But what is the goal, if not a Palestinian state?

The utter and complete destruction of Israel through genocide against the Jews.

This appeals to those Arabs who dream of annihilating Israel and creating a worldwide Muslim Caliphate. Furthermore, it fits in with the Globalist/Leftist plan for a One World Government, entailing the eradication of Western civilization of which Biblical Israel has served as a cornerstone. And of course Christianity itself rests upon its Jewish roots.

The decades-long unresolved conflict between Israel and the Palestinians could almost be likened to the dysfunctional relationship between a battered wife and her abusive spouse. And this is why Israel ought never to have “disengaged” from the Gaza Strip, or ceded control of the Philadelphi Corridor on the Egyptian border. As Victor Sharpe points out: “It is under this corridor that Hamas [has] dug hundreds of tunnels through which they smuggle their weapons into Gaza.” Nor should Israel have agreed to a cease-fire and hostage/prisoner exchange before its mission to take down Hamas is complete.

Predictably, in the aftermath of October 7th, the Palestinian psy-op came into play: the jihadist terrorists shape-shifted instantly into the poor, stateless Palestinians. That’s been the game for some 50 years, and that’s what just happened, quick as a wink, after Hamas’ horrifically savage attack on innocent Israeli civilians, including women, children and even babies, many of whom were burned to death after being raped, brutalized, and dismembered.

Amazingly, within a day or two or three, the international hue and cry was for protection for the poor, innocent…Palestinians!

There’s always been tremendous pressure put on Israelis to play nice with people who’ve sworn to kill them. Certainly America is guilty of this—O’Biden in spades—but so is Israel’s own Deep State, comprised, like our own, of Leftists with their own “progressive” globalist agenda.

A FEW UNDENIABLE FACTS

Take a look at the map of the Middle East and North Africa as shown above. What jumps out to the naked eye is how huge Saudi Arabia, Iran and Egypt are, with Iraq  and Syria not far behind. Jordan is a little smaller, yet it dwarfs the teeny, tiny sliver on the map that is Israel, in an odd configuration with part of its heart, Judea and Samaria, aka the West Bank, cut out.

There Israel sits, surrounded by a hornets’ nest of hostile Arab Muslim countries, not to mention jihadist Palestinians within its very border. It’s dizzying to count the number of times Arab nations have attacked the Jewish state, or how many times Israel has offered them land in exchange for peace, which they’ve turned down again and again. Why? Because their goal is not peace or land per se: their goal is the annihilation of Israel.

How do we know this?

The Arabs themselves have said so over and over. Take a look at the Muslim Brotherhood charter, not to mention that of the PLO or Hamas—the latter even made it into an Atlantic article entitled “Understanding Hamas’s Genocidal Ideology.” And their actions match their words, as we were reminded on October 7th of this year, the latest in attacks and wars going back to the 1920s when the idea of a Jewish state took shape, and again in 1947, 1948-49, 1956, 1967, 1973, 1982, and 2006, not to mention the frequent bombings, missiles, and sporadic terrorist attacks. Is that enough proof yet to take them at their word?

By looking at the record of unprovoked Arab violence against Israel, how can we blithely accept the narrative that asks us to view Arabs as victims while damning Israel with the slurs of “oppressor” and  “aggressor”?

Whom are we going to believe, the New York Times? CNN? MSNBC? The BBC? The UN? Al Jazeera? Iran? Arafat speaking from the grave through next-generation terrorists? Or our own eyes….

ARABS LIVING IN ISRAEL: APARTHEID? OOPS…NO

The fact that some two million Arabs live in Israel and enjoy full citizenship is proof positive that Jews and Arabs can live together in peace. One can find a number of Israeli Arabs who have only praise for Israel. Here’s one that may surprise you: an Arab Muslim who’s an IDF captain!

However, jihadist Arab Muslims can live in peace with no one—not even their brother Arabs, which is why they were chased out of Jordan and Lebanon, and why to this day, no Arab state wants to open its doors to the terrorist-spawning Palestinians.

PREDICAMENT OF THE PALESTINIANS: WHO’S TO BLAME?

It is perhaps not an exaggeration to say that the Arab leadership manipulated, exploited and abused the Palestinians beginning in 1947, first by enticing them to leave their homes in anticipation of the promised annihilation of Israel—after which they were told they’d reclaim their homes plus inherit the spoils of Jewish property—then by placing them in “refugee camps” and denying them entry into surrounding Arab nations. And that this systematic abuse has created a monster even they cannot control, but continue to exploit in their unending war against Israel.

The Arab refugee issue goes back to 1949 when Israel offered to return the Arab lands it conquered in the war for its survival, in exchange for a peace treaty. As David Meir-Levi puts it: “This would have allowed hundreds of thousands of refugees to return to their homes. The Arabs said no…”. Instead, they were planning their next winner-take-all war against Israel, which they launched in 1956.

Meir-Levi goes on to say:

At the Lausanne conference in August 1949, Israel again offered to repatriate a hundred thousand refugees even without a peace treaty. The Arab states refused again because such a negotiation would have involved a tacit recognition of the State of Israel. Instead, the Arabs insisted on maintaining the refugees in their squalor and suffering…. (Meir-Levi, History Upside Down, p. 74)

Moreover, as some Arabs were candid enough to announce in public, the refugee problem would serve as “a festering sore on the backside of Europe,” easily converted to moral leverage in the effort to win the emotional support of the West against Israel. (Meir-Levi, History Upside Down, p. 75)

Gaza: Screenshots from a short video online  ———>

And in a Wall St. Journal Op-Ed, Fred Baumann describes the situation this way:

Rejected by their fellow Arabs, who largely kept them cooped up in camps and fed a diet of hatred and revenge from birth, Palestinians were meant to be a tool for a war of total destruction against the Jewish state. Eventually, the plan backfired and, after the (barely) failed attempt of radicalized Palestinians to overthrow the Jordanian monarchy, they became too dangerous to absorb. To this day, they suffer from their exclusion by their fellow Arabs, while directing their passionate hatred toward Israel.

Within those squalid camps where they were warehoused by Arab leaders, the Palestinians fed upon anger, hatred, envy and vengeance, while their leaders turned down every opportunity Israel offered to ameliorate their situation, including giving them their own territory.

In this climate, terrorist organizations like the PLO were born, with help from the Soviets, as discussed in Part One of “Israel in the Crosshairs.”

Writes Daniel McCarthy:

To many in the West, it seems puzzling that Palestinians don’t migrate to other Arab countries. But those countries will not take them.

Egypt has as little desire to rule a discontented and dangerous Palestinian population as Israel does.

By way of explanation TheLibertyDaily posted a jaw-dropping 4-minute video entitled Here’s Why No Muslim-Majority Nations Want Palestinians in Their Countries. View it here. In both Jordan and Lebanon, the Palestinians functioned as a “state within a state,” fomenting unrest and attempting to overthrow the legitimate government. Ring any bells?

The intransigence of the Arab leaders created the predicament of the Palestinians. But the abuse of the Palestinians by these leaders should not surprise us—it is the same principle as that of using children as “human shields” –exploitation of the powerless for political purposes.

There was a watershed moment in 2005 when Israel under Prime Minister Sharon unilaterally gave the Gaza strip to the Palestinians, even forcibly removing Jewish settlers who’d lived there for decades and didn’t want to relocate. The Israelis left them a thriving export business deriving from state-of-the-art greenhouses that supplied fruit and flowers to Europe.

Sadly, as Victor Sharpe points out: “Sharon had foolishly believed…the Arab residents would build a civilized and peaceful society, thus proving to both Israel and the world that they could live in peace with the Jewish state. It was a delusion…”

As articles in Newsweek and the NYTimes and various writers have pointed out, Gaza could have become the Singapore of the Middle East.

Instead, the populace, in an uncanny echo of Kristallnacht in Nazi Germany, shattered the glass of the previously Jewish-owned greenhouses, and elected the terrorist group Hamas as their leaders.

When you sow the wind, you reap the whirlwind.

The Media and the Subtle Art of Manipulation

By: Amil Imani

December 5, 2023

“The art of manipulation is only successful when the manipulator remains undetected” ~ Robert Greene

In a world drowning in information, I always find myself at the crossroads of truth and deceit, only hoping to get a front-row seat to a sinister ballet orchestrated by the unseen puppeteers of the deep state. This should not be labeled as the stuff of conspiracy theories. Still, it is a collection of tales spun from the threads of our own experiences, where we understand how deep connections with the media can birth monstrous offspring –fake news, lies, and propaganda.

From the trenches of my insider vantage point, I witness how the web of relationships between the deep state and media personnel paves the way for manufacturing distorted realities. It isn’t just about sowing seeds of disinformation; it is a meticulously crafted symphony conducted by puppet masters interested in manipulating public perception.

Behind the curtains of newsrooms, “deep connections” aren’t mere networking; they are lifelines of influence. Top media personnel become conduits, willingly or unknowingly, for disseminating propaganda. Imagine a world where news isn’t a mirror reflecting reality but a canvas painted with the hues of hidden agendas.

As an unsuspecting and mostly gullible audience, navigating a landscape fraught with half-truths and calculated deception is difficult.

“Repeating a lie a thousand times gives it a veneer of truth” – is a maxim that has become the mantra of every clandestine operation. As the whisper of deception echoes through the corridors of power, it gains strength, morphing into a shrill noise that drowns dissenting voices. How many lies, I wondered, have been thus engraved in the collective consciousness, shielded by the armor of repetition?

The process always begins with creating the lie that suits the narrative of the agenda to be unleashed, which could be a false news story, a misleading statement, or a distorted fact. This lie is then spread through various channels, such as social media, blogs, and traditional media outlets. The more times the lie is repeated, the more likely it is to be believed, especially if it aligns with a person’s pre-existing beliefs or biases.

The lie is often crafted to be as plausible as possible, using techniques such as sensationalism, fear-mongering, and appeals to emotion. It may also be presented as a fact or a widely accepted truth, making it seem more credible. Once the lie has been spread, it is often difficult to disprove, especially if it aligns with a person’s beliefs or biases. This is because people tend to ignore or downplay information that contradicts their beliefs, a phenomenon known as confirmation bias. Ask yourself the question – how did this bias enter into the head in the first place? It is through a long chain of trickery that you become a player.

The news ecosystem, that intricate web connecting publishers, information, and users, becomes the battleground. “Fake news” isn’t just a buzzword but a weapon meticulously wielded to sway public opinion. The manufactured narratives don’t merely stay confined within the traditional news outlets; they permeate every corner of the digital realm, finding refuge in blogs and social media platforms.

But how does this web of deception ensnare the unwitting masses? The answer lies in the interconnectedness of it all. The relationships, the influence, the repetition—it was a carefully orchestrated dance where each step led the audience deeper into the labyrinth of falsehoods. Have you ever questioned the news you consume, wondering if it’s a reflection of reality or a distorted mirage?

The power dynamics at play are both subtle and insidious. The relationships between the deep state and media personnel are the glue that holds this elaborate facade together. But who are these puppet masters, and what is their endgame? The answers may seem elusive, hidden behind secrecy and plausible deniability. But ask yourself, what is it they want? Simply put – they want it all for themselves – a few greedy at the top of the pyramid, with dumbed-down masses at the bottom. You know it all but want to look the other way or are ghastly callous, not thinking of the damage it is already doing to you and future generations.

As I navigate the delicate balance between revealing the truth and protecting my identity, I implore you to question the narratives presented to you. Are you a mere spectator in this dance, or are you an active participant, discerning the moves with a critical eye?

In the end, this isn’t just my story; it’s a cautionary tale for those who dare to peel back the layers of the media landscape. The web of deception is intricately spun, but with awareness and scrutiny, we can unravel its threads and reclaim the narrative that is rightfully ours.

Me and Now

By Dennis L. Cuddy, Ph.D

December 5, 2023

In the 1800s as people moved westward across the U.S., wherever a town was begun, people used to help each other. If a farmer broke his leg, others would get in his crops, do his laundry, etc. This attitude of helping your neighbor continued to be widely practiced through the 1950s. I remember my Aunt Eloise took food to a sick neighbor. But now, things have dramatically changed.

On July 6, I had horrific car crash when a small truck hit my car. There has been a lot of pain and suffering and medical expenses since then, with me going to a wound and pain clinic. As a single person, I often went to a cafeteria for lunch or dinner, with many people knowing me there and what happens to me. However, not one has called me and asked, “Can I help you?” In the past, it was customary for people to ask others if an injured or sick person needed help (e.g., transportation, food, etc.). Of the NewWithViews writers, only “Coach Dave” has helped me.

The new life philosophy is “Me and Now,” because that’s what’s important to most people today. A girl went through a stop sign in front of me because all that was important to her was what she wanted at the time. The 1950s were known as slow-paced President Eisenhower years. But by the 1960s, George Orwell’s prophecy of “a quickened life tempo” had begun. People began to say “I don’t even have time to think” as they rushed from here to there.

By the end of the 1960s, the hippies were on the scene with slogans like “Look for number 1,” “What’s in it for me,” “If it feels good, do it,” and “Free love.” It was the latest version of the Garden of Eden wherein Eve said, “Not God’s will, but Eve’s be done,” as she ate the forbidden fruit! None of this happened by accident. In the 1890s, Friedrich Engels (Marx’s co-author of the Communist Manifesto) had written a published essay calling for women to leave the home and go to work, thus leaving their children to the State to rear and educate. This was made official policy in Arthur Calhoun’s 1919 three-part book series on the American family which became a popular and widely used college textbook on social work. It referred to families as representing the age of savagery while the State represented the age of trained “experts” rearing children!

In 1918 a news story in the Knickerbocker Press quoted War Industries Board chairman Bernard Baruch as saying, “We now live under Socialism where a person’s life is in service to the State.” Women increasingly have put their children in day care, and when the children get older, they put their parents in nursing homes where many cry in their pain and loneliness because their children only really care themselves and now!

Some decades ago, the letters IBM represented “I’ve Been Moved.” Many companies followed IBM’s example, so employees developed no roots in the community. People did not watch out for each other’s children and they were clueless that if they lived in a neighborhood of 13 homes, one of those is owned by the Chinese, probably spies. They were also clueless to the fact that Power Elite member Klaus Schwab’s, mentored by the late Henry Kissinger, prediction that “by the year 2030, you will own nothing but be happy” is a signal that we will return to feudalism (see my July 24, 2006 NewsWithViews article “Our Feudal Future.”). For the hippies, women were just to be used for pleasure (sex) rather than be loved and cared for. The only thing that mattered was “Me and Now” gratifications. Abortions, divorce, and crime increased as a result, and real lasting love decreased.

Are you going to do something about this, or only be concerned about yourself and now? The Holy Bible in Matthew 16:24 says “deny yourself.”

War-Monger Nimarata Nikki Haley: Globalist’s Darling

By: Devvy

December 4, 2023

December 6, 2023, is the fourth and final debate between GOP presidential hopefuls if they meet requirements set by the RNC.  Likely challengers:  Nikki Haley, Vivek! Rama-smarmy, Ron DeSantis. Iffy: Chris Christie, Doug Burgum and Asa Hutchinson.  Trump will not participate.

Back in 2004, Haley ran for Congress as a Republican while voting for many Democrats in previous primaries.  Haley supported flying the Confederate Flag on the statehouse grounds but decided after the Charleston church shooting it was a good thing to erase history just like the mobs who’ve toppled or removed historical statues since Black Lies Matter began their destructive rampages over three years ago:

“These grounds [the State Capital] are a place that everybody should feel a part of. What I realized now more than ever is people were driving by and felt hurt and pain. No one should feel pain.” Haley also said, “There is a place for that flag”, but she added, “It’s not in a place that represents all people in South Carolina.”

“I feel your pain,” Nikki, refused to support a bathroom bill to stop brainwashed individuals in the trans-cult from using women’s bathrooms.  The bill would require individuals who are scientifically male or female to use designated bathrooms.  STOP the NONSENSE of “identifying” as one of 72 “genders” insanity or the “sex assigned at birth” CRAP that’s evolved over the past few years.  Haley said that bill wasn’t necessary.  The hell it isn’t.  This has produced a breeding ground for predators, rape and violence.

Young girl (age 12) is raped in school bathroom by transgender peer (Trial in VA.  A second girl and possibly a third child constitutes a serial rapist to me.  He playing she got probation.)  Another:  Transgender ‘Woman’ Convicted of Raping 10-year-old Girl in Restroom // 5 Times ‘Transgender’ Men Abused Women And Children In Bathrooms // Male, Transgender Youth Arrested for Raping 4-Year-Old Girl, Distributing Videos, Photos of the Act:

“Lawrence, Massachusetts. A youth, who seven months ago urged locals to vote “yes” on a veto referendum enabling those who identify as transgender to access locker rooms and similar facilities designated for the opposite sex, has recently been slapped with Sexual Exploitation Of Child and Distribution Of Child Pornography charges.

“19-year-old Jakob Nieves, a man who identifies as a woman, “did knowingly employ, use, persuade, induce, entice and coerce” a four-year-old girl “to engage in any sexually explicit conduct” with him “for the purpose of producing any visual depiction of such conduct,” court records show.”

Haley served as governor from 2011-2017 vetoing 50 bills; 48% were overturned by their state legislature.  2016 Haley campaigned for constitutionally INELEGIBLE Senator Marco Rubio who dropped out.  She then went on to back Ted Cruz, another liar and cheat.  Ted Cruz is very popular – a constitutional scholar!!!  Well, Ted, as the old saying goes, denying the truth doesn’t change the facts.

In 2014, Cruz “denounced” his dual citizenship with Canada.  Sorry, Ted, but you were born in 1970 in AlbertaCanada did not recognize dual citizenship at that timeCitizenship Act [February 15, 1977]

“The Citizenship Act, effective February 15, 1977, replaced the 1947 Act with a more equitable statute. For example, British subjects no longer received special treatment and dual citizenship became recognized.

Ted Cruz is in the US Senate Illegally?, Dec. 4, 2015.  “Unfortunately, there is no evidence to suggest that the parent or parents of Ted Cruz ever filed a CRBA form with the U.S. Government in or around 1970, which is why Ted Cruz released a copy of his Canadian citizenship records and not any U.S. citizenship records. At present, all FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests filed in search of any U.S. citizenship documents to confirm the true official U.S. citizenship status of Ted Cruz have been denied access. All citizenship records for Ted Cruz are sealed unless and until Ted Cruz agrees to allow any such records to be released by either U.S. or Canadian agencies.

“As a result, there remains no authentic evidence to support the claims that Ted Cruz is either a “natural born” or “naturalized” citizen of the United States.”

Oh, how they lie:  “Senator Cruz became a U.S. citizen at birth, and he never had to go through a naturalization process after birth to become a U.S. citizen,” spokeswoman Catherine Frazier told the Dallas Morning News. “To our knowledge, he never had Canadian citizenship, so there is nothing to renounce.”  Oops:  “He’s a Canadian,” attorney Stephen Green, the former head of the Canadian Bar Association’s Citizenship and Immigration Section, told the Dallas Morning News.”

The Ted Cruz Canadian Citizenship — A New Look, 2016 – “In the final analysis, Ted Cruz is not a natural born citizen.  He is not even a citizen of the United States.  The best category he can fit into is, resident alien.  Ted Cruz had sealed his records; birth records, family records.  The last question is where did Ted Cruz get his passport in 1986?”

Ted Cruz’s Presidential Eligibility – Do those people not know how to do deep research?  Well, the bottom line is Cruz gave up his Canadian citizenship and was not a dual citizen at the time of his birth.  So, he’s a citizen of what country? All covered up by both Republicans and Democrats because Hussein Obama is also NOT a natural born citizen despite the fake birth certificate hailed by the prostitute media and political hacks as authentic.  Americans simply turned a blind eye to legal facts in favor of voting for the first “black” president; they all seemed to forget his mother was Caucasian.  Two very important columns:

Jan. 30, 2023:  Nikki Haley Is Not A Natural Born Citizen of USA To Constitutional Standards – Not Eligible To Be President.

Dec. 1, 2023:  Bing AI Claims “Consensus” on “natural born Citizen” Definition

Nothing to worry about.  Both parties and the prostitute media will make sure the American people never know the truth.  The U.S. Constitution doesn’t matter anymore in favor of political agendas destroying America.  “I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any threat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.” General Douglas MacArthur’s speech to the Texas Legislature in Austin (June 13, 1951).

Political flame throwing.  Haley is another back stabbing opportunist political hack.  “I will not stop until we fight a man that chooses not to disavow the KKK. That is not a part of our party. That’s not who we want as president. We will not allow that in our country.” Haley was of course, referring to the horrible Charleston Church shooting where Trump was, as usual, roasted by the lying prostitute media.  Not so funny are these race baiters who loved Trump and his money before he ran in 2016, but immediately branded him a racist when he announced his candidacy.

Why do younger black voters like Trump more than elders? UCLA study explains, June 12, 2020.  “’Because they’re tired of hearing the same stories about victimhood, racism, and zero answers that the left has been giving for years,’ said black conservative activist Rob Smith.”

1999: Jesse Jackson Praises Trump’s Commitment To Minorities, ‘Under-Served Communities‘ [VIDEO], In both 1998 and 1999, Trump was an honored guest at the annual Wall Street Conference hosted by the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, Jackson’ DC-based “multi-racial, multi-issue, progressive, international membership organization fighting for social change.”

Trump insisted on including Jews, blacks at Palm Beach golf course in 1990s, March 4, 2016.  (Who didn’t want them there?  Why uber rich white Democrat elites in Palm Beach.)

Biden Praising the Exalted Cyclops of the KKK, Robert C. Byrd, C-SPAN; 2:33 video.  Think Biden didn’t know his good buddy’s history?  Byrd recruited 150 of his mates in the 1940’s to start up a new chapter of the KKK in W. Va., known as the ‘Klavern’.

Back to Haley who bitched Trump didn’t want to release his tax returns.  Aww.  She initially took the same stand about her own and then caved.  By Oct. 2016, Haley endorsed Trump as “the best person based on the policies, and dealing with things like Obamacare”.  Sucking up for a possible cabinet appointment.  Haley supports the myth of queer marriage.  “I feel your pain”, Nikki, has teased she’s willing to make big budget cuts which includes SS and Medicare.  Of course, no president has that power.  Those two taxes are set by Congress.

Haley:  Time to show people reasons to support the U.N. (Mar 2017).  Her time as ambassador to the communist controlled UN (1 year) is a joke.  The ONLY thing Americans should support is getting US out of the UN, period.

Like John McCain and rent boy, Sen. Lindsay Graham, Haley is another war monger who believes “we” haven’t done enough for Ukraine.  Give Ukraine and their corrupt former comedian president, Zelensky, a blank check from the sweat off your back.  For what?  Not the worn out “national security” propaganda.

Haley was recently endorsed by the Koch network.  Right there alone should tell you “I fell your pain” little Nikki is the shadow government’s darling.   Billionaire Koch Brothers Launch Super PAC to Support Open Borders Politicians, Sept.10, 2018 – “The pro-mass immigration, GOP megadonor, billionaire Koch brothers are forming a new super PAC ahead of the 2018 midterm elections to back politicians who support their agenda of open borders, amnesty, and endless free trade.

“The Kochs’ network of PACs and organizations will join together to elect candidates that fit their economic libertarian agenda, which stands in stark opposition to President Trump’s protective tariffs, border wall, and agenda to raise U.S. wages by reducing legal immigration levels.”

Of course, they’re for open borders. Cheap labor under cutting American workers.  They don’t give a crap about you or your family.  It’s all about big money.  Koch Bros Running Ads for Democrats: ‘Thank You’ for Pushing Open Borders

Oh, you’re a racist; her parents were born in India, Sikh’s.  Her skin color is brown.  So what? Who cares?  I don’t.  She’s an empowered woman you sexist!  Gag me.  Oh, and let’s not forget:  She is constitutionally ineligible to run.

Nikki Haley slams foreign lobbyists while accepting funds from them, May 31, 2023.  These 16 Billionaires Have Already Donated To Nikki Haley’s PAC Ahead Of A Possible 2024 Run, Oct. 20, 2021

Nikki Haley’s Warmongering Has Made Her Rich, August 31, 2023 – “The more we dug on this story, the worse it sat with us … especially considering the Haleys’ history of such underhanded self-dealing. Last summer, senior editor Mark Maremont of The Wall Street Journal filed a report detailing how Michael Haley was gifted secret ownership shares in a company tied to the Two Kings Casino Resort in Kings Mountain, N.C.

“The stakes held by the politically connected people were masked from public view through several layers of corporations and limited-liability companies,” Maremont noted.  They hid the shares, in other words … which I referred to as definitional “pay-to-play.”

“The real scandal, though, lies in the fact Haley – the most unbridled warmonger in the 2024 presidential field – has been overtly saber-rattling in support of the precise foreign entanglement which would enrich her husband (and her) to the tune of tens of millions of dollars.

“Don’t wait for something to happen in Taiwan,” she told an audience in New Hampshire earlier this summer. “Do it now. Make sure our allies are working with them to make sure they have the equipment now, to make sure they have the ammunition now.”

“The equipment? Like those military vehicles?

“Last week, Haley’s financial ties to the military-industrial complex she breathlessly extols was detailed in another excellent piece of investigative journalism from Lee Fang. Fang’s piece explored “the curious background of Haley, who went from near negligible wealth – with virtually no assets or investments other than a bank account with less than $15,000 in 2017 and up to $1 million in debt – to a sizable fortune.”

“According to Fang, Haley’s warmongering has helped her (and her husband) amass a net worth of more than $12 million.”  Rest at link.

When DeSantis went after the formerly family friendly, Disney, Haley sided with that now super “woke” corporation hell bent on grooming and sexualizing children.

I don’t trust Haley for a split second.  If you want to see our military used as more cannon fodder in foreign countries and their squabbles, vote for Haley as Commander-in Chief.

Vivek! Rama-smarmy is a smooth talker to be sure.  Sounds like Trump’s policies most of the time and he’s intelligent, no question about that.  He’s also IMHO an arrogant hustler who looks down his nose at you and me.  I’ve been on this earth a long time.  Been around thousands of people over the past 31 years.  I’m a people watcher and Rama-smarmy comes off to me as someone looking for their next mark.

Speaking with a dear friend of mine about this, Vivek’s parents coming from India and being raised as a Hindu, my friend said, remember their caste system over there.  Vivek! fits the bill to a T.  His parents, Indian Hindu’s are Tamil-speaking Brahamins. Parents highly educated; father an engineer and patent attorney for GE.  Mother was a geriatric psychiatrist.  In India under their caste system, a Brahmin “is a member of the highest caste or varna and is an incarnation of knowledge.”

Vivek! likes to pitch he can bring in a younger generation.  Good luck on that.  Senior aide to Republican presidential candidate Ramaswamy quits to join Trump, Nov. 29, 2023

Vivek! immediately upon finishing school jumped into the biotech and big pharma cash cow industries.  Vivek! became the man of the hour on Wall Street.  He wasn’t always successful.  One of his companies made him rich while screwing investors.   One of the big losers in that venture was the California State Teacher’s Retirement System Pension Fund:  “But some investors lost real money on Axovant. One large public pension fund, the California State Teachers’ Retirement System, sold its stake months later, when it was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars less than in the days leading up to the disappointing clinical trial news. (The fund declined to comment.)” [Note: I continue to encourage Americans to find out just where their retirement funds – regardless of profession – are being invested.]

Globalist poison.  Thankfully, Trump got us out of the TPP and the scam Paris Climate Agreement.

Vivek! complains about China but his latest pharma venture is in Communist China.  Even a quick search will provide you with Rama-smarmy’s long time business dealings with the commies.  And finally, he’s another constitutionally ineligible candidate.  The American people had better shout down the roof about this or the Constitution means NOTHING.  Republicans and Democrats covered for Hussein Obama in 2008 fearing being called racists and potential riots and look where we are today with once again, more presidential candidates who are NOT eligible to run for president.

Vivek Ramaswamy Admits in NBC News Interview His Parents Were Not U.S. Citizens When He Was Born, Oct. 23, 2023 – “Vivek Ramaswamy admitted during live interview in Sep 2023 on NBC News that neither of his parents when he was born were citizens of the USA. Also, he admitted that although his mother later became a U.S. citizen his father never did.”

Just like Hussein Obama.  His mother was a natural born citizen but his father was a foreign national under the jurisdiction of Great Britain.

The two columns below seal the deal for not voting for Ron DeSantis.  Both are a must read.  I know he has a loyal supporters, especially how he ‘handled’ the COVID plandemic hysteria, but he’s running for president and Commander-in-Chief.  And while DeSantis has an exemplary and honorable record serving in the US Navy, he’s now in bed with those destroying our country.

DeSantis has been deserted, his globalist/RINO mentors don’t want him to run in ’24, April 1, 2023 by Tom DeWeese.  Very comprehensive.

Kat Stansell’s excellent investigation also exposes what most Americans (and probably too many Floridians not paying attention) don’t know is absolutely outrageous:

DeGovernor DeSantis DeCides to Break Another Promise, June 2nd, 2023 – “In recent legislation, just signed by DeGovernor, voting by machine was made mandatory, and hand-counting votes was forbidden. Let that sink in.”  Oh, how the lying, cheating Democrat/Communist Party USA must love DeSantis and their legislature.  Kat has written extensively about DeSantis you never hear about unless you live in Florida.  Taking away the right of any candidate being able to verify an actual vote count to me is grossly un-American and stinks of corruption and fraud.

Sean Hannity wets himself on a regular basis when speaking about DeSantis and the great job he did during manufactured COVID pandemic; Hannity has considerable real estate investments in Florida.  How the whole country could take lessons on fast and accurate vote counting on election day!  You couldn’t be more wrong, Hannity.

The remaining candidates are on the same par as ‘Legs in the air’ Kamala Ho Harris when she was the first DemonRat to drop out of the presidential race Dec. 3, 2019.  Despite being female and non-white, no one wanted that walking air head.  Burgum received a $100,000 gift from Bill Gates in his 2019 run for governor of North Dakota.  Bye, Doug.

All those endorsements mean nothing to me and never have when it comes to a candidate – other than a warning of who they’re taking money from and past decisions while in office (if an elected official).  I do my research and make up my own mind.  I hope you’ll share this with everyone so they get a factual breakdown about those candidates.

Illegal Aliens Invasion Far Exceeding U.S. Birthrates

By Frosty Wooldridge

December 4, 2023

At this juncture in December 2023, the U.S. State Department reports that 50,000,000 (million) foreign born immigrants now inhabit America. That number constitutes the largest percentage of legal immigrants to the general population of citizens in the history of our country.

Not mentioned in the report: none of the 20 to as high as 30 million illegal immigrants and their children were counted.

The report, issued by Chairman Mark Greene (R-TN), shows the number of illegal alien encounters at the southern border under Biden outpace annual U.S births, where close to four million are born every year.

John Binder, reporter for Breitbart News said, “Since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021, there have been about 6.5 million illegal aliens encountered at the United States-Mexico border, according to a report from Republicans on the House Homeland Security Committee.”

“It may be a new fiscal year, but we’re still stuck in the same historic border crisis,” Green said.

Binder continued, “Under Biden and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, 6.5 million illegal aliens have been encountered at the southern border, while nearly two million are considered “known got-aways,” those illegal aliens who are known to have successfully crossed the border undeterred by Border Patrol agents. Several more millions, reported as unknown got-aways, have breached America’s borders.”

What should be frightening to all American citizens stems from the fact that not only are we being invaded by the hands of our own Joe Biden, DHS Chief Mayorkas and the entire U.S. Congress—-but they are doing it on purpose to change the entire demographic of America.

Altogether, about 7.8 million illegal aliens have been encountered at U.S. borders since Biden took office. Millions of those encountered at the nation’s borders have been directly released into American communities by the DHS thanks to the administration’s expansive catch and release network.  In other words, a total negation of our laws on the books: Article IV, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution. Also, U.S. Code 8, Section 1324.  What’s even more disgusting stems from the fact that U.S. corporations hire those illegals to create even more incentive to break our laws.  It’s like those corporations want to destroy America’s foundation of laws.  One look at the nightly news of $100  billion in annual shoplifting from our mercantile stores shows that the criminal world succeeds far beyond what the mainstream media reports.

Binder said, “Estimates from June suggest that nearly 17 million illegal aliens now reside across the U.S., costing American taxpayers $163 billion annually. This amount, though, does not factor in the higher cost of housing, unpaid hospital bills, lower wages, and lost jobs that Americans are on the hook for as a result of illegal immigration.”

Nor does the fact that all legal and illegal immigrants give cash transfers of over $100,000,000,000.00 (billion) to their home countries, annually. In other words, they are not here to be loyal, patriotic American citizens.  They are thieves, liars, cheats and criminals.

And you can bet that among those millions of illegals, we are facing thousands of terrorists that will ultimately destroy our water systems, our electrical systems, our transportation systems and, ultimately, destroy the “rule of law” that has held this country together for 240 plus years.

What happens when foreign birthrates exceed 100,000,000 people not from our country?  What happens when all those cultures, languages and world views clash with our standards, our ethics, our world view?

Do you understand right now that American universities are teaching our kids to hate America, to counter the Capitalistic system, to promote Critical Race Theory, to confront and disobey law enforcement?  Do you understand that critical educational programs promote racial conflict?

For instance, do you see on TV ads where we should stop Asian-hate, Black-hate, Islamic-hate, Jewish-hate, LGBTQ-hate, and Transgender-hate?  Who do you think they are targeting in their ads?  Answer: the majority demographic of America, which is Caucasian people.  In other words, white people are blamed for all the hate in America.  How do you combat such organized racism against the majority of Americans?

How did all those pro-Hamas demonstrators marching all over our country get to dismiss that those Hamas Muslims’ prime directive was/is to exterminate every last Jew on this planet?   Those Hamas terrorists just killed 1,400 Jews in a barbarian slaughter of innocent Jews on October 7, 2023.  And, yet with their Islamic world view driven by the Qur’an, it was justified. Now, they are pissed because Israel is taking the fight back to Gaza’s front door.  How stupid or evil is Hamas?  Answer: pretty damned evil and really stupid.

What does all this international and national violent event show us?  Answer: different incompatible racial, religious, ethnic, linguistic tribes should not intermix.

What are the majority of American citizens facing?  Answer: we’re headed into the same violent quagmire as Israel, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.  Read: War on the West by Douglas Murray.  When we allow barbaric/uneducated people from barbaric cultures infiltrate our country, we will see our country torn apart at the seams.  You can see it coming as surely as the dawn.

The Marshall Plan

By Sid Secular

December 4, 2023

The establishment makes The Marshall Plan appear as proof of America’s magnanimity towards prostrate allies and a defeated enemy. But, in fact, the plan was only meant as a sop to a resource-sapped and “zapped” vassal state as well as America’s much weakened allies. The reason trotted out for aid to America’s former enemy Germany was that it was intended to prevent the Soviets from rolling across a weakened continental Europe. But since the American military was already firmly ensconced in Germany and elsewhere in Europe – and that the Soviets themselves had suffered much damage in the war, that was not a reasonable scenario.

Most of the goods shipped under the Plan were surplus items left over from the War but, of course, this did not lessen their value or, indeed, such good will as the American public showed in their response to the needs of others, even former enemies. Meanwhile, American shipments of coal to Germany became necessary as the French and British had, with our approval, laid claim to almost all the coal being mined in the Ruhr and Saar Valleys. This resulted in coal being shipped abroad while the German population froze, even in the coal mining regions themselves.

Also unknown to the general public, the assistance provided by the Marshall Plan was a loan that was paid back with considerable interest in succeeding years into a fund that still exists today. Sadly, that money provides, among other things, funds to the CIA to furnish modern “junk” art to German museums, further degrading German culture with the same type of sexual and cultural degradation that took place after WWI during the so-called Weimar Republic that led to the rise of Adolf Hitler. Authentic German art is kept well out of sight in storage, while especially Jewish artists and their works are given special exhibitions to continue their influence in German’s culture today. However, we can at least rejoice that unlike great American art especially regarding historical figures, this German art is not a target for destruction – yet!

Interestingly enough, no peace treaty with Germany was ever signed at the end of the war, a fact that legitimizes the occupation and domination of that country by the US.

Setting the Agenda for Freedom’s Comeback

By Tom DeWeese

December 3, 2023

For more than 100 years the free market economy of the United States has been used to prop up the failures of socialism throughout the world. Over-taxed Americans have been forced to pay for it through foreign aid schemes and leftist pretend charity cartels. Armed with plundered American capital, global looters have had free rein to pillage some of the naturally richest nations in the world, now destroyed by socialism. Yet, all the while the socialists were gleefully accepting the cash to finance their failures, Americans were derided for being so rich. Now, many see America as the last source of funds for the plunder. When the lights go out in America’s once shining abundance of freedom and riches, what will these locusts have left but darkness?

Years ago, someone said to me, “One day freedom may rush to our shores from somewhere else.” It’s possible that the first drops of such a flood have begun.

Shockwaves are rushing through the international Deep State. It seems there are cracks opening in their well-planned drive for global control. The cause? Javier Milei, a limited government, free enterprise candidate was just elected president of Argentina and news reports tell us, “The red caste is shaking.”

For decades Argentina has been controlled by the same cabal that has set its sights on global control. Beginning with Juan Peron and his wife Evita, continuing with the regional influence of communist Fidel Castro, and ultimately the strong, destructive influence of Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez, Argentina has suffered all the usual socialist casualties to freedom.

President-elect Milei declared, “We want to be the moral beacon of the continent. We want to be the defenders of freedom…” He has called socialist leaders, “trash” and “human excrement”, and said, “Now, Argentina’s administration will be an ally to the U.S. and Israel administrations, to Europe, and to free countries. We’ll no longer see Argentina’s foreign service siding with dictators.”

Most exciting for freedom lovers around the world, who have hungered for a revolutionary voice of reason, Milei, sounding much like Ronald Reagan, stated, “The state is not the solution, the state is the problem.” Then he announced his proposal to eliminate eleven of the nineteen federal agencies, These include the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development; the Ministry of Women, Gender, and Diversity; and the Ministry of Education, which he called “the Ministry of Indoctrination.”

The people of Argentina, facing over 159% inflation, have spoken as they rallied, demonstrated, and turned out at the polls, shaking the globalist foundations as they delivered 55.7% of the votes to Milei. There is joy amid the rusting structure of a once free society. But caution must be added to firm determination for success.

Now Milei faces his greatest challenge as he takes office on December 10th and challenges the entrenched globalist political establishment. Like Donald Trump in 2016, he’s new to the office and is the direct target of the all-powerful cabal which has no intention of surrendering power. As we have seen with Trump, no stone will be left unturned, no tactic is out of the question in stopping this interloper from succeeding in his promises to the people. Milei appears to be a dedicated freedom fighter, well prepared for the fight. Time will tell if he succeeds.

But freedom advocates in the United States must take heart in what has been achieved in Argentina. For it represents a growing mood as many citizens, internationally and nationally, have finally felt the blunt forces of tyranny and are fed up with the corruption of those in power. Now is not the time for Americans or citizens of other nations to look down in defeat, but to take heart that tyranny, rather than growing, may be starting to crumble. Let me give you some recent examples right here in the U.S.

I’ve already reported on the developments in Iowa and South Dakota where local citizens succeeded in blocking powerful corporations and NGOs from taking their property for the idiotic carbon capture pipeline. Many said it couldn’t be stopped, but the local farmers refused to be intimidated, and forced the state legislatures to take action on their behalf. It’s a great start in the national plight of farmers.

As China plots a determined drive to buy and control vast amounts of American land, unchecked by the U.S. Government, Arkansas became the first nation to pass a law to block it. More states are considering such legislation. Texas Congressman Chip Roy has offered legislation in Congress to ban China’s land drive nationwide. It’s called, “Securing American Land from Foreign Interferences Act” (H.R. 344). Finally, some in Congress are starting to stand for American sovereignty and independence, in defiance of the drive for global governance! Meanwhile, local citizens in the tiny rural community, Pataskala, Ohio, are rising up to stop a Chinese company from building a massive plant to build solar panels. Others are rising up in Michigan and Illinois for the same purpose in their areas. Stopping China is a growing movement.

Tennessee has become the second state, behind Alabama, to pass significant legislation to ban enforcement of Agenda 21 policy in state legislation. More states are looking into similar legislation. This could lead to the ultimate death of the Green New Deal and the Great Reset.

In a direct blow to the climate change agenda, which is determined to replace oil, gas and any reliable energy source with worthless wind and solar, a major campaign is underway to block this threat to society. CFACT, the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow, is leading efforts along the East Coast to stop the construction of offshore wind turbines. And it’s working. CFACT has revealed the hypocrisy of the radical environmental movement that spreads propaganda about saving endangered whales, yet they support the offshore wind turbines that have resulted in a disturbing amount of whales washing up dead on beaches. As a result, CFACT launched the STOP WINDMILLS SAVE WHALES campaign. In recent months more than one third of the offshore wind mill projects supported by the Biden administration have been stopped.

As many believe that the Republican Party is a lost cause, a major victory for the forces of freedom was achieved in the recent election in the state of Louisiana where every single elected statewide office fell to the Republicans. These included Governor, Lt. Governor, Attorney General, Treasurer, Secretary of State, and Commissioner of Agriculture. In addition, Republicans hold a 2/3rds super majority in both the House and Senate.

In addition, in Oklahoma at the national convention of the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW), a few dedicated activists showed what can be done when determination and principle are employed. As the organization prepared resolutions to be considered at the convention, two vital resolutions were blocked for consideration by the NFRW president. One dealt with men’s and women’s sports and the other defined what a woman is. When the president refused to include them, 4 brave, smart women prepared ahead of the convention for a floor fight. They had a platform; they were determined; and they worked together. They won. Their victory has now inspired others to run against their leadership in state conventions, and 99% have been successful.

Meanwhile, common citizens across the nation are making their feelings felt against the WOKE corporations which are working to enforce radical change in our culture. Bud Lite beer, once number one in the nation, has dropped to number 14; the movie Sound of Freedom, exposing the horrible details of child trafficking, has become the most successful film of the year; the country song, “Try This In a Small Town” became number one on the charts; Disney has lost over $900M on their last eight movie releases; and Electric Vehicles, promoted as the replacement of gas-powered vehicles, have crashed and burned in the market.

All of this shows that the time has come for local activists to take action at home. As I have told my audiences across the country, we are not outnumbered – we are out organized. It’s time to fix that. People are ready for our solutions.

I’ve been teaching citizens across the nation to build Freedom Pods in their communities. Too many lack the confidence to get started. Here are a few suggestions to get the ball rolling. Keep it simple. Work against school district tax increases; demand protection of property rights; get your county council to cut county money to outside agencies; get your people to run for several county boards and make sure to sit on special committees when citizen input is required. Above all, get your people on the local Board of Elections! Be heard! Be consistent. And keep it direct and simple.

Juan Milie is now President of Argentina. He intends to lead his people to protect property rights, free markets and smash the Great Reset power cabal in his country. Incredibly, I’ve also just received this news, hard-right firebrand Geert Wilders has just been elected Prime Minister of the Netherlands. He is known as the “Dutch Donald Trump.”

If Donald Trump can find a way to assure honest ballot counting and is elected, more shock waves will rush through the entire world. The Great Reset will be splintered. Break the back of the global power elite and other nations will respond. More freedom leaders will be elected. You can feel it in the air. The whole world is watching and waiting. Now is the time.

Widespread Shoplifting in America

By: Amil Imani

December 3, 2023

I urge the Governor of New York,  Kathy Hochul, to take action to address this issue of rampant shoplifting and organized theft. I have heard the governor vetoed a proposed bill to establish a task force to combat organized theft. This decision has left the Retail Council of New York State, which represents retailers in the state, thoroughly disappointed.

The New York Police Department reported that 327 individuals were responsible for over a third of the retail thefts in 2022. These individuals were arrested a total of 6,000 times! What does this mean? They are arrested after the crime and then let off so they can return to their merry ways again! Isn’t it pedestrian common sense to ensure that repeat criminals are held accountable?

The National Retail Federation also reported national shrinkage losses of $112 billion in 2022, indicating a widespread problem across the retail industry.

Retailers are now taking preventative measures to combat this issue. For example, Dollar Tree has said it plans to remove goods from its stores like men’s underwear, an item most prone to retail theft. Retailers are also ramping up prevention methods, with 34% of respondents increasing internal payroll to support risks related to retail crime and 46% increasing the use of third-party security personnel, among other methods.

Since there is no other go, I suggest that they also take these measures to prevent shoplifting and organized theft:

Surveillance and Security Measures: Increase their surveillance capabilities to monitor their stores and deter shoplifters. This includes installing security cameras throughout the store and parking lot to detect and prevent criminal activity. They should also consider using electronic locks and other technologies to secure their stores.

Inventory Management: Retailers need to optimize their inventory management to identify discrepancies that may indicate high-theft items. This involves completing frequent physical counts to verify the information.

Policy Collaboration: Retailers also need to extensively collaborate with policing and government bodies to tackle the rise in shoplifting. This should include sharing intelligence with policing, understanding the tactics used by organized retail crime gangs, and identifying more offenders.

Customer Engagement: This is a must. Increase the visibility of high-theft items and acknowledge all customers to deter potential theft. It is better to create a single entry point and exit for the self-check area and staff it with a customer service monitor to enhance transaction monitoring.

Technological Solutions: The cost will be ultimately justified, so the retailers need to start using digital signage to display real-time video of customers as they shop, acting as a deterrent. They should also consider using cloud-based digital signage to mount small profile Smart TV screens adjacent to high ticket items and electronics.

Staffing and Training: This is the core of all preventive measures. Staff self-checkout areas with customer service monitors to indicate to potential thieves that they are being watched. Train your employees to handle self-checkout areas and monitor transactions.

One might also consider using low-tech measures, such as public-facing video monitors, giving front-end staff walkie-talkies, and installing a mirror on the kiosk to curb shoplifting at self-checkout lanes. Rather than stand-alone, this would help to complement more expensive high-tech ones to reduce inventory losses. Resource-rich companies like Walmart already use AI-powered cameras to recognize items and human behavior. The system alerts nearby employees of accidentally missed or intentionally skipped merchandise scans.

Given the apathy of our lawmakers, retailers should go for a multi-faceted approach to tackle the rise in shoplifting and organized theft. No single measure can eliminate theft; only a combination of strategies can effectively deter potential thieves.

The overall results might be somewhat mixed, but taking measures to safeguard your business is better than doing nothing and letting your stores get looted in broad daylight.

However, I understand that the effectiveness of these measures can vary depending on the specific context and implementation. Therefore, it should be the number one priority for the voters to urge the governor to take immediate action!

Good Is Worth Fighting For

by Rolaant McKenzie

December 3, 2023

In Peter Jackson’s 2002 cinematic adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee from the far green country of the Shire are nearing the climax of their perilous mission to enter the black land of Mordor to destroy the Ring of Power. As an eye of blazing fire continually looking afar to and fro, the Dark Lord Sauron intently seeks it to dominate all life on Middle-earth. Frodo, weary of the journey and bearing this tool of evil, despaired of accomplishing his task. But Sam encouraged his disheartened friend.

Frodo: I can’t do this, Sam.

Sam: I know. It’s all wrong. By rights we shouldn’t even be here. But we are. It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened?

But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. Because they were holding on to something.

Frodo: What are we holding on to, Sam?

Sam: That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

The satanically-inspired dark lords of our world and their disciples continually work to complete the construction of their own “ring of power” and wield it to control all life on earth. They use their considerable wealth and power to promote infanticide (abortion), euthanasia, sterilization through homosexuality and transgenderism, energy austerity, terraforming, famine, neglect of forest and infrastructure maintenance, and toxic health interventions to reduce the world’s population to a manageable number of serfs corralled into digital biometric IDs, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and 15-minute cities.

This overwhelming evil can be very daunting and discouraging to us. We may ask ourselves, “What can we do to oppose such darkness?” and feel despair about seeing good days ahead for ourselves and our children.

But as we still see some things around us that are good and beautiful, especially our children, family, and close friends, and the land we call home, the love we have for them causes us to keep pressing against the darkness in hope. Not the kind of hope that wishes for a favorable outcome that likely will not happen, but the kind that looks forward with the expectation that Sam expressed to Frodo in the midst of their arduous journey.

The following quote has been attributed to Martin Luther, though it does not appear in any of his writings. Some scholars believe that it originated with the Confessing Church of 1930s Germany, which used it to inspire faithfulness to God, hope, and perseverance during its opposition to Nazi tyranny.

“If I knew the world was to end tomorrow, I would still plant an apple tree today.”

This is one reason that parents homeschool their children: to truly educate and impart wisdom to them so that they may endure, succeed, and be saved from the destruction of Marxism and sexual groomers in the government school industry.

Families start home gardens, expanding them to small independent farms that provide wholesome food for themselves and their neighbors, giving them an alternative to the processed, genetically altered food manufactured by the corporate/government agricultural industry and famine engineered by globalists and their organizations.

Volunteers at Christian crisis pregnancy centers, at risk to themselves in this culture of death, save the lives of babies, help their mothers and fathers, and share the gospel message of forgiveness, hope, and salvation through Jesus Christ.

All these and many more, in various ways, day by day, do good to preserve what is good because they believe the darkness cannot endure and a bright new day will come.

Abraham was called to leave the familiarity and comforts of home to journey to Canaan, where God promised he would become a great nation and a blessing to the whole world (Genesis 12:1-3). He faced many challenges as he wandered from place to place in this new land, and his faith was sorely tested at times. He had many opportunities to turn back and return home, but he did not because he was holding on to something: God’s promise and his home in the heavenly city of God (Hebrews 11:8-16).

The tools the Saurons of our world use to establish their dark empire over humanity include burning our lands with arson and war, creating energy and food scarcity through sabotage and propaganda, and bio-warfare in the form of coerced spiked-protein injections that poison the lifeblood.

But Jesus, the conquering King who defeated the grave, will overturn their empire of destruction. He will douse their fires and give the Living Water (John 4:10, 7:37-39; Revelation 21:5-6) that extinguishes perdition’s flames to all who trust in Him. Jesus will turn their contrived famine into abundance because He is the Bread of Life (John 6:35). His shed blood on the cross for sinners brings healing from their poisons and grants eternal life for all who believe in Him (Colossians 1:13-20).

“Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.” (Galatians 6:9)

Do not give up and turn back. Trust in God through Christ Jesus to discover and continue in the good works He has prepared for you to do (Ephesians 2:8-10).

The darkness will pass, and a new day will come where the Son will shine bright and never fade away (Revelation 21).

Mounting Mischief From Electric Vehicles

By Sid Secular

December 2, 2023

In past newsletters we have already panned electric vehicles (“EVs”) and demonstrated that the devil is in the details of the “side effects” that are shoved aside as side issues like the side shows of old. In their utilization, as in the case of drugs, these affects keep adding up. Include in that, the batteries for these behemoths require scarce metals (rare earths) in their operation that are nearly all available only from China and parts of Africa and those Third World countries already being roped into China’s sphere of influence, and therefore can be cut off at any whim of that Communist regime. Also, environmentally speaking – and isn’t everyone these days! – vast chunks of the earth will be gouged out to attain the materials required to create these monsters leaving much of “Gaia” looking worse than those vast stretches of the Appalachians raped and ruined by coal mining. In other words, the same horrors brought about by efforts to produce our present power sources will be vastly enlarged by any effort to produce the supposedly “green” electrical power that become necessary in any effort to switch to electric vehicles. Consider this: all of the necessary charging stations for these “green” vehicles are powered by fossil fuels.

However, while every effort is being made to prevent more carbon being released, no effort at all is being made to address the above very real problems and, even more interestingly, no mention is made of the tremendous increase in the need for fossil fuels required to make “electric power” work! Many suggest that our “greenies” don’t see the problem at all, but it is far more likely that they are aware but willingly support what they hate in order to gain what they want – a world dependent upon their version of the Great Reset, a matter that requires an end to everything that has made mankind capable of existing without central planning!

Quite apart from the above, the very use of “EVs” is extremely problematic. From “recharging” a vehicle – a matter only practical in developed areas because of the weight of the vehicles (“EVs” are twice as heavy as similar gas-powered machines), the need to connect such stations to power sources capable of producing the necessary voltage – to the time required to recharge an “EV” and get the users back on the road, and finally to the tremendous danger of any accident involving an “EV” – they are simply bombs with steering wheels! – this method of transportation is rather equivalent to using a rocket sled to get to work! And this doesn’t even include the cost of purchasing, maintaining and using a means of transportation that comes in a distant third to a reliable ox cart.

And now comes another problem with “EVs” that our modern day (so-called) “thinkers” have not considered because they cannot actually “think” past the “wine and cheese” cocktail parties and the Third World cuisine they enjoy with their frenetically feasting friends. Of course, our present “gas guzzlers” produce dangerous gasses such as carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxide as well as particulates that cause respiratory problems and contribute to smog and acid rain but 90% of the harmful gasses are converted into less problematic residue through the use of catalytic converters. Synthetic oils also significantly further reduce tailpipe emissions but, unfortunately, today’s “researchers” who have not done their homework – or who prefer bad news to good! – discount this “good news” with respect to fossil fuels.

On the other hand, they have discovered an even worse source of dangerous pollutants arising from our cars, that is, tires and brakes. The wearing down of these two essential parts – and especially tires! – produce fine particulates when “the rubber meets the road.” Upon total failure, tires also leave shredded pieces on the roads as well as particulate matter in the air. Of course, the larger the vehicle, the greater the pollution, so as a result, trucks are the major culprits in this as their much heavier weight leads more often to tire and brake failure. But EVs are, as noted, often twice as heavy as cars and so they will wear out their tires and brakes as rapidly as do gas powered trucks. Synthetic rubber, the main component of tires, produces even finer particulates than does natural rubber and, as a result, these are even more dangerous as it is even more difficult to prevent their passing into the air, the soil and the water and, eventually, those who are exposed. It would seem that it took our “safety experts” a century into the age of the automobile to make these discoveries.

Electric Cars beginning in 1832

In a similar vein, the copper, zinc, iron and other material entering the air as “brake dust” are even more toxic than tailpipe emissions and not as easily removed! But not to worry, in the planned 15 minute cities of the future, motor vehicles will probably be outlawed and replaced by bicycles and kids’ scooters, taking away from us the last vestige of the freedom we have come to expect in America. However, you can also expect our elite rulers to continue using fossil fueled cars and planes in their lives because they will be able to do so and they really don’t care what happens to Mother Earth.

As a final postscript on the subject of electric vehicles, a recent report on one of the many on-line news blogs made mention of an individual who went about studying the charging stations necessary to make these monstrosities work. They don’t just plug into your wall at home you know! In any event, besides the “charging stations” being directly connected to a fossil fuel means of providing them with the electricity that makes your car “go,” the inspector found that a large percentage of the damned things didn’t work at all! So, when you pull your expensive “green” means of transportation up to one of these stations, you might just find that there isn’t anything there that will make your “car” go! Well certainly, that will cut down on a lot of things, including your freedom to go where you wish, when you wish.

There is nothing new under the sun!

No Longer Capable of Freedom?

By Lex Greene

December 2, 2023

Over the past 247-years, Americans have held the absolute power and had every opportunity to protect their own liberty and the future of freedom for all. All political power in the USA is derived from the People. The problem is…the deafening silence is the People’s consent.

The basic fact is, nowhere on earth, throughout human history, has there ever been a government deserving of the People’s trust. All governments, at their very best, remain a necessary evil not to be trusted. As it always has been, so it remains today.

Despite the best efforts of our Founders, they too failed to create a system of government that could never become despotic and tyrannical towards its own people. That’s why they took great care to warn all future generations to “be forever vigilant” in constant protection of individual liberty and the future of freedom for all.

Unfortunately, the American People stopped paying attention (being forever vigilant) more than a hundred years ago and for generations now. Citizens assumed that because everything seemed fine today, it would always be fine. 247-years into the great freedom experiment, that would prove to be a fatal assumption.

Most Americans have never experienced the kinds of evil that have been common throughout the rest of the world, since the beginning of time. Most who are aware are only aware due to their own research and learning. But still, they have never experienced it personally, so even they struggle to believe it exists, much less, could visit them here in the land of milk and honey.

The modern American holds little trust in government or mainstream information systems, such as our government, network news, cable entertainment networks often believed to be news, internet search results and social media posts, none of which are real “news” outlets today. What we have in this country is for-profit commercial information systems with heavy government censorship. The golden rule applies, wherein those with the gold…make all the rules.

News in the USA is based upon advertising revenue. The huge international corporations and governmental organizations that spend billions per year in advertising certain ideas, products, services, concepts, and agendas, are in total control of the information available to the citizenry.

Yet most Americans believe that they are “well-informed” and in control of their own lives.

In discussions or speaking events, I often use this example to illustrate the point… If I randomly ask 100 Americans what kind of ketchup they like, over 70% will say Heinz. If I ask which other brands they have tried, the answer will most often be none.

So, the decision to put Heinz ketchup on your shelf was not your original idea. It’s on your shelf simply because someone, in this case Heinz, told you to put it in your grocery basket because Heinz is the best ketchup. Is it the best ketchup? Nobody really knows because they have seldom tried any different brand. To them, the idea that Heinz is the best is true, because it’s the best they have ever had.

The same goes for where you live, the kind of car you drive, your favorite restaurants, the clothes you wear, the cleaning products you use, even the people you vote for or are told to hate. All of these are decisions you think you made on your own, but in every case, you simply did what you were told to do. None of it was your idea…

So, it should come as no surprise that when the people you have been following all your life told you to lock down, social distance, wear a mask and accept mRNA bioweapon “vaccines,” about 70% lined up to follow orders as they had been all their lives.

Three years later, evidence is everywhere around the globe that the entire CV19 event was a lie from the start and the “medical protocols” put in place were more dangerous than any version of the common cold, otherwise known as a “corona virus.”

Most people don’t believe what is true. In fact, most don’t even know what’s true and not true today. That information has been kept from the general population. As a result, they only believe what someone told them to believe, most often, what they want to believe, whether true or not.

Only two types of people “hate Trump” as yet another example. The first is everyone in political power who feels threatened by Trump, who and what he represents, and that he can foil their global agenda. The second is those who will only listen to the people in group one. 99% of the time when interviewed, Trump haters struggle to come up with a single cognitive reason for their hate. They just hate…because they were told to.

This is not a society well-suited for freedom anymore. Freedom requires truthful leaders, not blind followers. Freedom requires a society more focused on preserving freedom for all, than cancelling everyone and everything they disagree with. It requires action, not mere chatter…and it requires courage, not people waiting for someone else to do something.

At least two American generations no longer even desire freedom…Pavlov trained via government-controlled education to believe that some form of socialism or communism will serve them better in life…even though these ideas have only been used to enslave people or kill them all over the world, and have as a result, failed everywhere on earth they have ever been instituted.

The younger generations simply have not lived long enough, experienced enough, to know what they don’t know. Those who hold the gold, told them not to even listen to common sense, truth, or advice from those with decades more knowledge and experience. “Those people are the past…you are the future…”

But if those who will shape our future have been denied the benefit of learning from the past, the future they will shape is one they won’t even be able to survive.

And so it is, once again, history must repeat itself, for all who have failed to learn from the past.

Every child would burn their hand on the stove, if not for the parent there to teach them from past experience, also known as wisdom. And if memory was only 24-hours long, they would burn their hand every day for the rest of their lives.

No, a vast majority of Americans are no longer capable of freedom, therefore, the hour glass on freedom will soon expire. It’s one problem to be ill-informed. It’s a whole different problem to be unteachable or unreachable.

As I told my kids while they were growing up… smart people learn from their mistakes. But brilliant people learn the easy way, from the mistakes, successes and failures of others.

Can We Return to “The American Dream” and a Constitutional Republic Without a Revolution?

By Andrew Wallace

December 2, 2023

This paper is premised upon our determination and ability to separate Congress and the Judiciary from Big Donor Money and Control. If this is impossible, a revolution is guaranteed.

For the purposes of this paper, let’s assume that we can separate Congress and the Judiciary from the Big Donors, aka The Parasitic Super-Rich Ruling Class (PSRRC) and their minions in ‘woke’ corporations, government, academia, military flag officers, et al.

My associates will think I am insane to even consider that it is remotely possible to separate Congress and the Judiciary from Big Donor Money.

Most think it would take a bloody revolution similar to the French Reign of Terror. But I like to think positive, even though it is improbable that we could educate the brainwashed, ignorant, and apathetic, which would be required  in order to prevent a civil war.

A depression or other major event like the war now brewing could cause an internal civil war. Anarchy, at the very least, is guaranteed if government can no longer pay its obligations that support half of the people.

Most legitimate Economists forecast a major economic collapse if government does not change its ways very soon.

The Enumerated Powers in the Constitution LIMITS the Federal Government’s powers to the following:

Taxation, borrowing money, paying debts, regulating commerce, coining money, post offices, patents and copyrights, lower courts, immigration, declaring war and maintaining a military.

The federal government has no power to legislate or spend money on anything not included in the Enumerated powers!, period

If the Federal Government was operating under its founding documents, and restricting its legislation and expenditures to its Enumerated Powers, we would be living in the Land of Milk and Honey in a Constitutional Republic, with a viable and attainable American dream.

The simple absolute truth is that if government was to comply with the Enumerated Powers as dictated by our Constitution, everything would be great again as follows:

  1. There would be no Income taxes, as it was until 1913 (The Year of Infamy).
  2. Tariffs would finance government and return middle-class jobs (as it was prior to 1913).
  3. Wars for Profit would not be possible without income tax to finance them..
  4. Terminate the unconstitutional Privately-Owned Federal Reserve Bank.
  5. Replace the Fiat Dollar and CBDC digital currency with Gold and Silver to control inflation.
  6. Terminate all Federal Welfare payments, as they are unconstitutional. Welfare is responsibility of the states.
  7. Terminate all Foreign Aid payments, which are also unconstitutional.
  8. Return all of our military from foreign countries (estimated at more than 150 countries!).
  9. Military may only be used overseas for disaster relief and under a declaration of war as required to protect our national security. This would have prevented the thirty conflicts that cost us 108,866 military lives since WW2. We lost every conflict, killed millions, and destroyed entire countries. This is why we are hated around the world.
  10. Terminate all support of illegal Invaders, which is both unconstitutional and Constitutional Treason.
  11. Terminate the unconstitutional legislation and funding for the Departments of Labor, Agriculture, Health and Human Services, Education, Energy, Transportation, and Housing and Urban Development
  12. With no foreign Wars for Profit, there is no need to “Project Military Force”, which will reduce military spending by about 50%.
  13. Presently, federal income is reported to be $5 Trillion, Expenditures are $6.5 Trillion, Deficit is $1.5 Trillion. Debt is $ 33 Trillion and interest on the debt is $1 Trillion and rising, which equals projected military spending of $1 Trillion.
  14. Lawfully complying with Enumerated Powers should cut federal spending by 50% and increase revenue, allowing for a reduction in debt and interest expense. All of this is possible when you are not transferring the People’s wealth to the PSRRC through Wars for Profit and Federal Reserve Bank actions.
  15. The FBI is the most corrupt police organization in the world. It must be terminated and replaced with the Militia of the Several States, as specified in our Constitution.
  16. Many federal judges can be eliminated because there will be fewer federal laws to litigate.
  17. A majority of federal laws will be retracted by Congress because they are created without Constitutional Authority.
  18. Constitution only gives Congress the power to make laws. The bureaucrats (Administrative State) can no longer write laws. Presidential Executive orders have no authority over the states, and no authority over any people who are not their employees, none.
  19. Powerful people of both parties who commit crimes will get lawful due process and prison.
  20. Tax-free Foundations allow the wealthy to protect and use their wealth and power through eternity, and must be eliminated.
  21. The destructive, racist, and uneconomic concepts of ESG and DOE are forbidden.

The preceding is by no way a comprehensive list of all the benefits generated by the government begrudgingly adhering to its Limited Enumerated Powers. It probably won’t happen until the Citizens demand these changes and nullify all the unconstitutional actions. Remember, NULLIFICATION is the original right of self- defense, and is a natural right.

Our only impediments to unlimited prosperity and justice in America are the ignorant, apathetic and indolent who believe in a free lunch without work, and a government usurped by the corrupt, murderous and incompetent for money and power. Costs of corruption, mass murder and Marxist indolence are exorbitant. Returning to the Constitutional Republic will restore our rights and more than double our prosperity.

God Bless You and The Republic.

Javier Milei: Making Argentina Great Again?

By Steven Yates

December 1, 2023

Javier Milei wins Argentina’s presidency: history’s first anarcho-capitalist president!

Last Sunday, November 19, 2023, Javier Milei made history. He decisively defeated his rival, Sergio Massa, Argentina’s Peronist Economy Minister, by a comfortable margin of 55.89% to 44.10%.

Milei has a reputation for eccentricity. Massa doubtless thought this would hurt him with voters. He was wrong. Argentinians clearly had had enough of a regime that had run the country of 46.6 million into the ground, with rising unemployment, 40% of the population now beneath the poverty line, and the inflation rate a whopping 140%!

Milei’s an outsider, a counter-elite, like Trump was — though unlike Trump he’d previously held an office. It’s no surprise that Trump told him (via Truth Social), “I am proud of you.” A colorful character with trademark bushy hair, once a member of a rock band that performed Rolling Stones covers, he became an economist and a television personality with a penchant for cultivated outrageousness. He is skilled at using media (including outlets that hate his guts) — just as Trump is. Small wonder pundits are alarmedly comparing the two.

He’s also the first self-described anarcho-capitalist to win a national election. What is anarcho-capitalism?

The term was coined by flamboyant libertarian economist and prolific writer Murray N. Rothbard. As a moral as well as economic philosophy it advocates for a society based on voluntary transactions and contracts — unfettered free markets — neither interfered with nor subsidized by the state. Its core moral value is the non-aggression principle (NAP): no one may initiate force or violence against another individual or group, nor enlist others to do so on one’s behalf. Physical force or violence is morally justified in retaliation against its initiation by another.

Property rights are then economic claims, limited only by the NAP (you can’t murder or enslave someone on your property).

As some libertarians put all this: everyone is the sole owner of his/her life and the fruits of his/her mind and labors. No one has a moral claim on the lives or the fruits of the labors of others.

To libertarians, this sounds idyllic. They imagine a world of unfettered freedoms in which all may flourish in their own way, living life according to their own choices and not the choices of someone else, absent coercion and violence. Various forms of libertarian thought, an extension of classical liberal thought, date at least to German economic thinkers such as Carl Menger and Ludwig von Mises of the Austrian School; and a few Americans ranging from Murray N. Rothbard, originally an acolyte of Mises, to philosophers such as John Hospers and the novelist / philosopher Ayn Rand.

I don’t know how many people who voted for Milei actually subscribe to this philosophy. Probably they just want a change in direction from the Peronists. Can anyone blame them for that? No one in his right mind, after all, who knows anything of the current situation in Argentina, thinks the country could keep going in the direction its Sergio Massas have been taking it.

Some history.

Once, long ago, Argentina was the most prosperous place in South America. Like other Latin American countries, it was settled throughout the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries, primarily from Spain. Under the Spanish Empire the country became the Viceroyalty of the Rio de la Plata. The country fought a six-year war for independence beginning in 1810. Decades of civil strife followed, however.

But by the end of the 1800s, economic growth based on an essentially classical liberal economic model led to rising prosperity. Noted for its natural resources which include oil, coal, natural gas as well as minerals such as silver, gold, copper, and lead, by 1880 Argentina had the seventh highest average per capita income in the world. The country’s name derives from argentum, Latin for silver.

The prosperity didn’t last — possibly because while the country had adopted a kind of classical liberalism, its political structure retained civil or Roman law (like Chile and other Latin American countries) instead of English-originated common law. Civil law both presupposes, and fosters, an environment of distrust that undermines the efficiency of markets and grows government via bureaucracy.

Argentina suffered during the Great Depression, just as North Americans did. North Americans bounced back. The U.S., following its victory over Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan in the Second World War, built the strongest economy the world had ever seen.

Despite having the second largest economy in South America, Argentina struggled. Two figures emerged at its helm in the 1940s: Colonel Juan Peron and his wife Eva “Evita” Peron. Thus began the first “Peronist” period, which ended in 1955 when Juan Peron was driven from power and fled into exile. Another period of instability ensued, ending with Peron returning in 1973: interestingly, the same year El Golpe in Chile toppled Salvador Allende and instilled the military rule of Augusto Pinochet, who ruled that country for the next 17 years but oversaw the rebuilding of its economy along a Friedmanite model.

Peron had no such luck. He died the following year. His wife tried to take his place. She couldn’t hold things together, and more instability resulted, characterized by left-versus-right armed conflicts. A military junta seized power in 1976 and began the so-called “Dirty War” which tried (unsuccessfully) to purge the country of leftists. This junta had to step down in 1983 following the Falklands fiasco the year before. When the dirt settled, its leaders were in prison.

Argentina became a democracy — or, at least, that was the intent. In 1989, the next Peronist, Carlos Menem, was elected president. Three years later, the Argentinian peso became the country’s official fiat currency, pegged to the dollar. A centrist government rose in the 1990s. This didn’t last, either. Amidst a massive recession and rising public debt, the Peronists returned in 2001 amidst the general strike of that year which brought the country to a standstill. Initially, for the Peronists, things did not look good at all! In December of that year, the banks shut down amidst a near-collapse of the currency and the withdrawal of $1.3 billion in aid from the IMF.

Riots ensued. Then things got worse. The following year, the country defaulted on an $800 million debt repayment to the World Bank.

A more “modest” Peronist, Nestor Kirchner, became president in 2003. Negotiations begin with the IMF resulting in an agreement to repay just the interest on its loan. This boosted the economy, and a couple of years later, Argentina repaid its debt.

Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, Nestor Kirchner’s wife, succeeded him as president in 2007. By this time the country was again enjoying relative prosperity — relative to its recent past, anyway; for as with the U.S., it was debt-based and not sustainable. The financial crisis of 2008-09 sent everyone, everywhere, into a tailspin. The Argentinian government improvised, and things seemed to be turning around. But in 2013, the IMF censured the country for reporting false information on inflation and economic growth.

The following year, an Argentinian, Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Buenos Aires, became Pope Francis, putting the country in the limelight despite that fact that both its economic and cultural problems were again worsening. Pope Francis became the first Latin American to rise to this stature.

The Argentinian peso continued its slow, agonizing tumble towards oblivion. Cristina Kirchner remained a key figure on the political scene, though she’d become a lightning rod: she had both fervent defenders and equally fervent detractors.

In 2019, Peronist candidate Alberto Fernández became president, ousting his predecessor the conservative Mauricio Macri who was unable to put the brakes on general deterioration. We’re almost to the present — to a weary Argentina clearly in decline (laws legalizing abortion, etc.), a government having fallen into complete dysfunction, with poverty soaring and inflation leading to the point of civil unrest. Voting is obligatory in Argentina — and voters were looking outside the standard political categories.

What the Peronists seemed to believe was a confusing and confused mixture of Argentinian nationalism and governmental interventionism, hailed by its leftist defenders for its social programs and by its openness to feminism, abortion, and “gay rights.”

Arguably Peronism has been a decades-long disaster for the country that has run its course.

Can Javier Milei fix things? That’s the question Argentinian voters overwhelmingly gambled on last Sunday. Who is he?

Who is Javier Milei?

He’s been described as a “populist,” typically by his detractors. The Peronists were also described as “populists,” suggesting the meaninglessness of that term.

Born in 1970, Milei studied economics at institutions like Universidad de Belgrano, Universidad Torcuato Di Tella and CEDES/IDES. He became a head economist for Corporación America, one of the country’s largest business conglomerates which runs its major airports among other large endeavors. He has authored around 50 scholarly papers and several books defending libertarian economics (his political party is known as La Libertad Avanza). Possibly being in the rock-and-roll band prior to becoming an economist and a television personality schooled him for life in front of an audience. He has been both hailed and decried for his outbursts against government spending.

As with Trump, his detractors in mass media could not argue with a salient fact: he boosted ratings. In this New Normal, outrage tends to do that. During his recent campaign he would wield a chainsaw at rallies, symbolic of his plan to axe government programs, close the central bank, and scrap the peso, replacing it with the dollar (!). He’s unmarried, and the owner of five mastiffs named after the economists he most admires.

To the best of my knowledge, none of his writings have been translated into English. Hence besides what everyone now knows, I don’t know his full worldview — whether it is Christian-leaning or premised on materialism. Having sided with cultural conservatives, he has vowed to put Argentina’s recent legalization of abortion to the test of a national referendum. He’s described man-made climate change as a “socialist lie” and denounced Pope Francis as a “filthy leftist” and “the representative of malignance on Earth.”

Here is what he says about leftists generally (I have this translation from a current Tom Woods letter):

“If you think differently from them they will kill you!… You can’t give sh** leftists an inch. If you give them an inch they will use it to destroy you…. You don’t negotiate with trash because they will end you!… We’re not only superior economically, we are morally superior, we are aesthetically superior, we are better than they are at everything. And that triggers them. And since they can’t beat us with real arguments, they just use the repressive apparatus of the state, with loads of taxpayer money, to destroy us. And yet they’re still losing!… Leftists are losing the cultural battle. For the first time ever, they are cornered.”

As the saying goes, holy horseshoes, Batman!

I think he exaggerates with that last — the battle against cultural leftism is far from over as he might find out if he puts abortion to the test and loses. What we can say for sure: he’s definitely not part of the leftist-globalist alliance of convenience!

Which is why I think of him as a counter-elite, using Peter Turchin’s vocabulary, just as Trump is a counter-elite. He wants to purge Argentina’s “political caste,” akin to Trump’s call to “drain the swamp.” He is planning “economic shock therapy.”

His argument against the central bank is that it prints money, money printing being the root cause of inflation. This seems to me correct. Money printing is inflation. What is inflated is the amount in circulation, which debauches a currency’s value. The reasoning is straightforward: the more you have of any desired good, the less value individual units of that good can command.

Prospects for a better Argentina?

My sense: Milei’s proposals for what Trump has called “making Argentina great again” provide a necessary condition for such, but probably not a sufficient condition.

They may be essential steps to a better Argentina, but what’s needed is more: a worldview transformation — which Latin America generally needs (also North America and Europe): explicit rejection of materialism as a worldview and a re-embrace of the kind of Christendom which proclaims individual persons not simply as “owners of their own lives” but as having intrinsic value as creations in God’s image — deriving their moral value from this and not mere economic value from what’s in their pocket or wallet or bank account or portfolio, or derived from class or group identity, or from any other contingent source.

Maybe Milei’s instincts lead toward something like this. Maybe not. He doubtless knows he won’t be able to make sudden, axe-wielding moves overnight, because doing so will lead to still more dislocations. Economics is downstream from culture, and cultural change cannot be made overnight. None of the countries of the West got into their present messes overnight, and none will get out of them overnight.

I don’t know what Milei’s policies will reflect over the long run, or if he’ll even be allowed by the remaining elites still in power in Argentina to enact them. But without both ingredients — political decentralization reducing the size and capacity of governmental and corporate elites to reign supreme, combined with a worldview appropriate to who and what human beings are — his term will only take his country part of the way.

At best, after an initial rough ride and reemergence of prosperity, it won’t be enough. What Turchin calls “wealth pumps” will emerge and redistribute wealth upwards into the hands of a tiny corporate elite, and the result will be another eventual burst of the kind of unrest Chile experienced starting in late 2019.

But one must begin somewhere. The fact that Milei is being demonized across globalist and left-leaning corporate media I see as a good sign! In any event, he takes office on December 10 (the 40th anniversary of the end of Argentina’s military dictatorship). Thus will begin the biggest test we’ve yet seen on the world stage for the kind of anarcho-capitalist economics Milei represents. He’ll need more than charisma and chainsaws to lead his country out of its present cul-de-sac. That is going to take some doing!

Truth Under Attack

By Paul Engel

December 1, 2023

  • Do you believe that the truth shall set you free?
  • How do we know what the truth is?
  • How can the American people believe in self-evident truths if they don’t believe there is such a thing as truth?

There have always been attacks on what is true. From the serpent in the Garden of Eden asking, “Did God really say…” to today’s attempts to quash “disinformation”, truth has been under attack. While many of these attacks have been about what the truth is, over the past couple of generations the idea of truth itself has been under attack. Why is that? In the Gospel of John, Jesus said:

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” —John 8:32 (NKJV)

Could the answer be that simple? Could the attacks on the very idea of truth simply be attacks on our freedom? If that is true, then what can we do to defend not only our freedom, but the very idea of freedom itself?

Self-Evident Truths

Let’s face it, without the idea of truth, we never would have become independent from Great Britain.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, …

U.S. Declaration of Independence

There are things that are not only true, but so obviously true we should not need to write them down; everyone used to agree they were true. While we all rarely agree on what the truth is, we still generally agreed there was a truth we could find. Knowing there is a truth is one thing; finding out what that truth is might be something else. So, if we want to be free, finding out what that truth is should be our first step.

Knowing the Truth

I recently received a question based on an article entitled “Feds Have Tied The Hands Of TN Law Enforcement On Illegal Immigration, Tennessee Leadership Refuses To Push Back“. It would appear, according to the author of this article, that not only is Tennessee law enforcement being restrained, but our legislature and people are as well. This position of federal supremacy comes from a statement I found in the article.

According to the Department of Homeland Security, under the Supremacy Clause in The Constitution, the assignment of immigration law and enforcement of those laws is given to the federal government, and in order to comply with a “cooperation only” approach, states are relegated to a prone position, at least, under The Biden Administration.

Feds Have Tied The Hands Of TN Law Enforcement On Illegal Immigration, Tennessee Leadership Refuses To Push Back

It would seem that the hands of all Tennesseans are well and truly bound by the whims of the Biden Administration. That is, except for one small thing: The truth.

According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution gives the creation and enforcement of immigration laws to the federal government. However, the Supremacy Clause, found in Article VI, Clause 2, says no such thing.

This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land;

U.S. Constitution, Article VI, Clause 2

In order for any law to be considered the supreme law of the land, it must be made in pursuance, or following, the Constitution, which specifically states in the Tenth Amendment:

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

U.S. Constitution, Amendment X

So for a law of the United States to be the supreme law of the land, it must put into effect a power delegated to the United States by the Constitution. A quick look at Article I, Section 8, Clause 4 shows that Congress has the power:

To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;

U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 4

Congress has the power to create rules for naturalization, which is:

The act of investing an alien with the rights and privileges of a native subject or citizen.

Naturalization, Webster’s 1828 Dictionary

It does not grant to Congress the power to regulate immigration, which is:

The passing or removing into a country for the purpose of permanent residence.

Immigration, Webster’s 1828 Dictionary

In fact, the term “immigration” does not appear in the Constitution of the United States. This means that Congress does not have the legitimate power to regulate immigration. Therefore, federal immigration laws are not the supreme law of the land, and in fact are void and meaningless.

An unconstitutional act is not a law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; it affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation as inoperative as though it had never been passed.

Norton v. Shelby County :: 118 U.S. 425 (1886)

So it seems that the federal government has not tied the hands of Tennessee law enforcement, or the law enforcement of any other state. Rather, these states have not only tied their own hands, but enslaved themselves to a lie. If only there was a way to set them free.

One Small Step for Truth…

As I have frequently said, I am not a lawyer, but I not only was I able to immediately spot the lie from the Department of Homeland Security, I was able to defend my position with proof that what I am saying is true. (By the way, there is a lot more to this argument. I’ve written an article about a similar situation with the Department of Education for members of the Patriots Program.) How was I able to do that so quickly? By following the advice of the first Chief Justice of the United States, John Jay.

Every member of the State ought diligently to read and to study the constitution of his country, and teach the rising generation to be free. By knowing their rights, they will sooner perceive when they are violated, and be the better prepared to defend and assert them.

John Jay, First Chief Justice of the United States

By reading and studying the Constitution, I’ve become so familiar with it that the lie from DHS was as obvious as a three dollar bill. Furthermore, that familiarity with the Constitution meant I knew exactly where to go to find the truth of the matter.

You may be asking yourself, “How could I gain such skills with the truth?” I followed John Jay’s advice and studied the Constitution. I did not go to law school, where, rather than studying the language of the supreme law of the land, students study the opinions of judges. It may seem daunting, but the language of the Constitution is generally very easy to read. After all, it was written so an 18th century farmer could understand it. I’ve even written a book called The Constitution Study where I take you through my study of the Constitution in plain, conversational English. Yet studying is just the first step.

In John chapter 8, Jesus told those who follow Him:

“If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

John 8:31-32 (NKJV)

In a way, John Jay was saying the same thing. If you abide in the Constitution, if you read and study it as a disciple, then you will know the truth about this country and be freed from the tyranny of those who lie about it. In both cases though, the impetus is on us. Just as Jesus’ followers had to abide in His Word to be His disciples, we must spend time in the Constitution, becoming students of the document. If we wish to know the truth, we cannot depend solely on the words of others, but must find it for ourselves. We must always be in search of the truth, not merely content with the words we agree with. For the truth to set us free, it must be actually true. That is why the foundational principles of The Constitution Study are:

  • It’s only an opinion unless there is proof.
  • An expert opinion is only an opinion unless there is proof.
  • Original documents are our best sources.
  • Check your sources.

In 1983, U.S. Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan was quoted in the Washington Post as saying:

Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.

1983 January 18, The Washington Post, More Than Social Security Was at Stake by Daniel P. Moynihan, Quote Page A17, Column 5, Washington, D.C. (ProQuest)

While not the first to express that sentiment, Mr. Moynihan is probably one of the best known. We all have opinions, but that does not make them all true. While we often look to experts, we have to remember that they can be wrong as well. Millions of Americans have been enslaved to ideas based on opinion rather than facts. The consequences of those opinions have ranged from the benign to the truly horrific. Our entire legal profession is based on the opinion of judges, often completely devoid of facts, if not actually antithetical to them. If we wish to be free, we must start by making sure what we know is actually true.

… One Giant Leap for Freedom

John Jay said that reading and studying the Constitution would not only help you recognize when your freedoms were being violated, but be better prepared to defend and assert them. Imagine walking down the street not only knowing what your rights are, but how you can defend them. I’ve told stories before about standing up to illegal mask mandates, overly curious FBI agents, and questionable U.S. Attorney’s offices. That freedom was made possible by knowing my rights and being prepared to defend and assert them. That knowledge came from an honest and forthright study of what the Constitution actually says. Not what I had been taught in school or what “experts” like those at DHS said, but reading the actual documents. Because of that, I live free. That’s not to say there aren’t those who would attempt to take away my freedom because of lies that have been told. Rather than being defenseless, I have the truth on my side. I’m hoping to have a few million Americans on my side as well.

Most people are familiar with the Hans Christian Andersen story The Emperor’s New Clothes. Having been conned into believing he was wearing a fine set of clothes, the emperor walked through the village not knowing he was undressed. None of the townsfolk admitted they could not see the emperor’s cloths until a small boy pointed out the truth: The emperor was naked. Once the “spell” was broken, the entire town took up the cry.

Today, many in the federal government walk around believing they are wrapped in robes of power, some because of their own arrogance and others because “experts” have told them so. Most of the American people seem to go along with the lie, not because they can see the power robes, but because of the lies they have been told. I hope today, as I’ve pointed out in some small way how naked federal actors are, the “spell” will be broken and you will join me in pointing that out as well. While being a single voice showing the naked power grab of Washington, D.C. may allow me to live free, it will take the courage of millions of Americans to help break the “spell” nationwide. It will not be easy, and there are risks involved. If we wish to live up to the words of the national anthem and be the land of the free, we must once again become the home of the brave. That means being brave enough to not only seek for the truth yourself, but stand up and point out when the federal “emperor” is as naked as the day he was born.

Will Someone Investigate the NSA?

By Cliff Kincaid

December 1, 2023

The movie Oppenheimer is now for sale via various streaming channels at a cost of $19.99 on Prime Video, a complete waste of money. I am offering for free my 24-page analysis of how this film whitewashes a prominent member of a communist spy ring that stole our atom bomb secrets. My report, which also addresses the NSA’s role in whitewashing J. Robert Oppenheimer, raises a serious matter: who oversees our national security establishment?

My letter to NSA Director General Paul M. Nakasone said the following:

Our new 24-page heavily footnoted report (enclosed) documents how Chinese communists are continuing to infiltrate our nuclear labs, transferring knowledge of weapons of mass destruction to those who want to kill tens of millions of Americans!

Equally outrageous, I recently discovered that the NSA’ s National Cryptologic Museum has whitewashed the infiltration of our nuclear labs during World War II by the Russian communists. The exhibit wants us to believe that Soviet spy Robert Oppenheimer of the Manhattan Project was just a patriotic American!

I visited the NSA’s National Cryptologic Museum on August 9, 2023, confirming that the Venona exhibit [about Soviet spying] had been “rotated out” of the museum and replaced with a “Protecting America’s Secrets” display paying homage to Oppenheimer.

The letter was dated August 24 but I never received a response.

On the anniversary of 9/11, we were forced to consider the sad state of our so-called “intelligence” agencies, unable or unwilling to protect America. Israel is now going through a similar exercise regarding the terrorist attack on October 7.

Much of the conservative commentary emphasizes the political nature of the FBI and the CIA and their determination to keep Donald J. Trump out of the White House and maintain the Obama/Biden Administration in power. But the National Security Agency also bears watching.

The NSA is counting on Congress to reauthorize Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), ostensibly to collect information about foreign threats.

Matthew G. Olsen, Assistant Attorney General, wrote an op-ed that originally appeared in The Hill on August 16, 2023, arguing for congressional reauthorization of Section 702.

But how is this possible when the NSA refuses to acknowledge the truth about Oppenheimer?

The NSA is following the lead of the Biden Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm. It was Granholm who had announced the Department of Energy had vacated the Atomic Energy Commission’s 1954 decision to withdraw Oppenheimer’s security clearance.

Equally significant, the Daily Wire revealed the NSA has created a glossary of terms that push Critical Race Theory and radical gender ideology.

Rep. Matt Gaetz warned about these Marxist ideologies being “latched to the most exquisite spying and surveillance tools that have ever existed on the planet.”

It appears that the Marxism has been embraced by NSA leadership, which makes the American people who “cling” to anti-communism into the targets.

In addition to the communist lies embraced about the Oppenheimer matter, the FBI itself announced on October 23 that NSA employee Jareh Sebastian Dalke pleaded guilty to six counts of attempting to transmit classified National Defense Information (NDI) to an agent of the Russian Federation (Russia).

The Department of Justice says Dalke faces a maximum penalty of up to life in prison and sentencing is scheduled for April 26, 2024.

While this development is a sign of progress, depending on what happens to the perpetrator, much more needs to be done, including at the FBI, which used Russian disinformation to go after Trump.

Former FBI agent Max Noel says the Bureau used to investigate candidates for federal employment by analyzing Character, Associates, Reputation, and Loyalty to the United States. The first letters in those words make up the acronym CARL.

Noel told me that Barack Hussein Obama could not have been elected president if he had been subjected to the CARL test. He had too many communist connections.

Meanwhile, published reports suggest that Obama’s vice president, Joe Biden, who is now president, is not going to be charged for mishandling classified documents.

Rep. Mike Turner, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, commented that “Biden has been found to be a serial classified document hoarder” and that “Over a 10-year period, he’s been taking classified documents, some of the most sensitive that threaten our national security home, without any protection, and certainly, you know, able to- for others to be able to access them. There needs to be consequences.”

He also noted that Hillary Clinton had “over 100 classified documents at home when she was Secretary of State and Vice President Biden both under Obama at the same time, [they] were taking classified documents home, and certainly had them be vulnerable, with no consequences — shows the Department of Justice is not pursuing Democrats.”

At the same time, Turner defended Section 702, saying it “allows the collection of [information from] foreigners outside the United States who pose a national security threat to the United States” and that “We have to continue to collect that data and information, it’s from which we are able to keep our country secure.”

Turner contradicted himself, saying Section 702 somehow keeps us secure even while top officials under Obama, one of whom is now president, jeopardize our security by hoarding classified documents in unsecure locations.

Before Congress even considers reauthorizing Section 702, hearings should be held into the Oppenheimer matter and subsequent reports that the Communist Chinese have also been infiltrating the labs.  All of this is covered in my report, “Hollywood’s Whitewash of a Communist Spy and the Infiltration of America’s Nuclear Labs.”

Reps. Mike Waltz (R-FL) and Jim Banks (R-IN) say in a letter to Nakasone that they also want an explanation for the NSA glossary of Marxist terms and its implications for the intelligence agency’s hiring procedures.

At the same time, in response to Rep. Turner’s comments about the obvious double-standard, the House under new Speaker Mike Johnson should immediately defund the activities of anti-Trump U.N. lawyer Jack Smith, who has indicted former President Trump on bogus charges of mishandling classified documents.

Perhaps defunding the NSA should be the next step.
