“One man with courage makes a majority.” President Andrew Jackson

The “global warming” aka climate change hoax is falling apart. The so-called “environmental crisis” was cooked up by the communists in Moscow in 1928; 20 delegates from the U.S. voted for that diabolical plan to destroy capitalism in America.[1]

Solution to global warming and disappearing polar bears, June 5, 2008 (Mine):

“How about those inconvenient scientists who know Al Gore is a phony?

“World’s Top Scientists ‘Manmade Warming’ Is A Dangerous Lie. December 13, 2007. “In particular, it is not established that it is possible to significantly alter global climate through cuts in human greenhouse gas emissions. On top of which, because attempts to cut emissions will slow development, the current UN approach of CO2 reduction is likely to increase human suffering from future climate change rather than to decrease it.”

“Hundreds of scientists reject global warming. December 21, 2007. “A new U.S. Senate report documents hundreds of prominent scientists – experts in dozens of fields of study worldwide – who say global warming and cooling is a cycle of nature and cannot legitimately be connected to man’s activities.

“”Of course I believe in global warming, and in global cooling – all part of the natural climate changes that the Earth has experienced for billions of years, caused primarily by the cyclical variations in solar output,” said research physicist John W. Brosnahan, who develops remote-sensing instruments for atmospheric science for clients including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and NASA.”

“It matters not to the converted card board puppet, Al Gore, turned king of the environmental guru’s, that a judge over in Great Britain slapped down his cock and bull,[2] he continues to peddle his pernicious lies. The same as these career poltroons in Congress; entrenched bureau-rats who spew lies as their daily dogma. The American people have been pummeled with all the dire predictions and “proof,” enforced by intellectually lazy saps who hold major positions in print and electronic media.

“I encourage you to watch this 2:08 second video of closet communist, Barry Obama, aka Barrack Hussein Obama. “Listen to what he says about using this phony global warming to create jobs. This is the tactic used over and over to enrich the elites and crush the middle “class.

“Barry has simply taken up the plan laid out by Gus Hall, head of the Communist Party USA for decades…” Old Gus’ book book, Ecology, Can we survive under capitalism? published in 1972 was pure Marxist propaganda. On page 88: “The demand must be the nationalization of industry that violate anti-pollution laws.” Why do you think the unconstitutional EPA was created?

Over the years so many of us in the independent media have been educating Americans about the big lie called climate change. Hounded our state legislatures and CON-gress to stop raping us in taxes to pay for our own destruction. The big lie is global as was meant to be and good people who do care about the environment have been brainwashed to believe one lie after another all to ‘save the planet’.

Brainwashed as children. Way back in 2003 (the year Greta Thunberg was born), Holly Swanson’s book, Set Up and Sold Out: Find Out What Green Really Means came out and she nailed it on the head way back then. Get ahold of the kids and start indoctrinating them into believing the bald faced lies about ‘what green really means’. I encountered brainwashed seniors as a substitute teacher in 2018. Young, impressionable and scared because through social media, they just knew teen Greta Thunberg was right: They would be dead in ten years so why do the classwork? By 2018, Thunberg was the climate hero scolding world leaders at the rotten, corrupt UN holding another BS climate change conference.

No More Money for the BIG “Climate Change” Lie, (Mine) Oct. 21, 2024 and Republicans Must Denounce Climate Change Scam, Feb. 13, 2023 (Mine) – Both of these columns have a lot of FACTS all Americans need to know if we’re going to stop the madness and stripping us of our rights, private ownership of land and protect our precious farmers and ranchers from the lunatics in elected office.

READ because it will spread: Eco-Fascism – 2026 Ballot Measure Seeks “End Of Farming” In Colorado, May 22, 2025: “The Trump administration, focused on delivering economic growth and food production in the U.S., is attracting the opposition of zealots and degrowth monied interests alike.

To wit; two radically authoritarian ballot measures – which have the support of initiatives and frameworks of International Governmental Organizations (IGOs) – ask Colorado and Oregon voters to give up the family dog and hand over their private property rights in what some have called “the end of farming and ranching” in the Mile High state…

Oregon

“Leading up to the 2022 election in Oregon, a similarly wonky Initiative Petition 13 was introduced to make raising, riding, eating or owning domestic livestock illegal. Similarly, the state donated resources to the petitioners by sending back a lengthy how-to guide.

“After significant tweaks, that Initiative Petition is back as IP28 and greenlit for signature collection ahead of the 2026 election. In addition to making it illegal to own companion animals such as dogs or cats, the IP would make it illegal to render animals for meat in the State of Oregon.

“While some might be quick to dismiss the actions of a few, seemingly lone environmental zealots, others cite bigger-picture concerns for connections to IGOs and dark money influence…Yet by narrowly redefining “harm” as an illegal taking—such as removing or poaching—the Trump administration is attempting to rectify decades of federal overreach that have resulted in the loss of grazing rights on privately owned lands and the lowest cattle volumes in 70 years.”

This is dead serious because of big money and hypocrites with that money who fly around in $50 million-dollar private jets to go party on a $100 million dollar yacht halfway around the world. Oh, but their “carbon footprint” is okay because they are the privileged. To them, we are nothing but oxen under the yoke to be pushed around, all for conservation and save the planet! Our farmers and ranchers (and sure, there’s always a few bad apples in any category) are the best stewards of our land yet they are under attack constantly either by bureau-rats in some state agency, state legislatures and the destructive EPA. Why the Environmental Protection Agency must be abolished, Mine, Jan. 21, 2005, WND

And, Democrats in Colorado are preparing to permanently end farming in the state: “This would be the end of farming and ranching and private (farm) land ownership in Colorado” “There’s something happening in Colorado which is not so good. The corridor of people that don’t understand the rural lifestyle that live in all the cities in Colorado are controlling that state. This would be the end of farming and ranching and private land ownership in Colorado.

“Because what they propose is that they want to set up a committee that cannot have any farmers and ranchers on the committee to decide what happens to our public lands and private lands in the name of conservation. They want to be able to say that any, put any species on the state endangered species list, which would dictate what you can do on your land if you have that species on there.

“So they could just say, oh, this squirrel is endangered. And now you have 400 restrictions on your property that you can’t use it. You for this. You can’t cut down this tree. You can’t move cattle in this area. This is activist environmental proposal to take over that entire state. Because if they get control of that, they can literally dictate the use of any land, public or private, in the name of conservation.”

Farmers and ranchers in other countries have been destroyed to save the planet! It has been truly tragic to read about. Peter Sweden: IT’S SPREADING – Massive Farmers Protest in Germany (Video), Jan. 1, 2024: “You might have heard about the farmers protest in the Netherlands. Farmers have been protesting against government plans to essentially SEIZE 3000 farms in order to meet 2030 climate goals.

“Earlier this year I traveled to report on the farmers protest in the Netherlands. Some 10,000 people turned out.” Rest at link. All to enforce the big lie and the 2030 date to finally crush all of us.

Mark Steyn

Mark is a remarkable man who filled in here and there for the late Rush Limbaugh; more frequently as Limbaugh battled cancer. Funny and very intelligent. A man of many, many accomplishments. A man who became the target of “climate change” hustlers and lawfare attack. Two heart attacks (one while on the air) and over ten years later, after losing a defamation lawsuit against him, he has been vindicated:

Michael Mann – the Scientist Behind the Debunked Global Warming Hockey Stick Model – Wins $1 Million from Mark Steyn in Defamation Case, February 9, 2024. I knew all about this case from the beginning and it sickened me. But Mark didn’t sit around feeling sorry for himself even though every effort was made to destroy him emotionally and financially. It didn’t work: When the Ice Cracks: Michael Mann’s Legal Defeat and the Climate of Accountability, May 24, 2025 – Important backstory.

Mark Steyn’s Vindication: A Triumph for Free Speech and Personal Fortitude, May 24, 2025: “A Warning Shot Against SLAPP Tactics”

“This case, like Mann’s broader legal campaign, embodied a SLAPP, a Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation. These lawsuits are designed not to win but to exhaust, intimidate, and silence. And in the world of climate science, where the political and the empirical are often inseparable, they have been used to devastating effect.

“The Power of the Individual

“Mark Steyn’s story is not just about one man’s fight against the system. It’s about the system’s fear of one man.” Rest at link.

The fear of one courageous man – THAT is what the “left” and all these lunatics elected by either brain dead or uninformed voters fear the most. But our numbers have grown exponentially over the decades and the truth about the manufactured ‘climate crisis’ has spread around the world. WE THE PEOPLE. OUR AMERICA. It’s up to us to stop the destruction of what made this country great as I wrote in my April 29, 2024 column. Millions of us have stayed on this hoax and going after elected lunatics.

The more sane with common sense are finally getting elected or placed in positions to stop this communist goal: Watch: Morano on Fox explains why Dem Senators attacked Trump’s EPA Chief: ‘Zeldin is the most consequential EPA Chief in the history of the agency’ – ‘He is dismantling their climate agenda, they are running scared’, May 23, 2025

My previous columns covered the Rio confab: Watch: Morano on Varney on Fox on Trump quitting ‘the world’s oldest climate treaty’ – ‘Our long national nightmare will have ended’, May 16, 2025: “Stuart Varney: Marc Morano is the executive at Climate Depot. What happens if they withdraw from this 1992 treaty? Are we out of the climate business?

“Marc Morano: Yes, and in other words, our long national nightmare will have ended.

“This is the most significant thing that the Trump administration could do. Administration could do to end this climate hold that has been on America, these 32 years ago since 1992 when George H.W. Bush, the first Bush, went to the UN’s Rio Earth Summit to appear ‘green’ in the battle against Bill Clinton and Bush lost the election anyway. But he signed onto the Rio treaty, which created all the United Nations climate summits.

“Donald Trump is trying to do now is withdraw from the treaty, and then the next president will have a much harder time — needing two-thirds to get it passed back in. This is something no republican President has ever attempted. This would give permanence to Trump’s agenda.” (Exactly why I’ve pounded on abolishing the Seventeenth Amendment. Treaties have to be approved by the Senate.)

Going back to Mark Steyn. Sean Hannity, Clay and Buck and some others have large audiences (do miss Dan Bongino’s show), but I favor Mark’s radio show; he has a very large listening audience. You can listen here. His interviews on climate change are here and worth listening to. What a gentleman and someone to admire for his intelligence; a dedicated truth seeker with wit and grit.

Putin is Crazy Like a True Communist

By Cliff Kincaid

May 27, 2025

Let us forget about Joe Biden’s failing health for a moment and get back to the subject of America’s failing health. President Trump’s “Big Beautiful” bill promises more debt and financial ruin. Meanwhile, another World War is taking shape.

The courageous Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) is standing against the tax bill and declaring that Trump “can’t pressure” him to vote for the bill. “I ran in 2010 because we were mortgaging our children’s future,” he told Punchbowl news. He knows the bill doesn’t cut enough from federal spending and increases the debt.

On the foreign policy front, President Trump has apparently had a Damascus Road conversion about the nature of Vladimir Putin. “He has gone absolutely CRAZY!” says Trump. With all due respect, Putin has not gone crazy; he remains a communist, and that is the problem.

Trump failed to appreciate the real nature of Putin and his brain, Alexander Dugin. He thought Putin would “make a deal.”

Now, with Trump having a wake-up call regarding Russia, perhaps it’s time for him to purge members of the “Alt-Right Comintern” around him, with the domestic version featuring such personalities as Tucker Carlson and Stephen K. Bannon, who have been trying to convince him that the Russians are just like us, and that a rapprochement with Russia is somehow necessary and proper.

Referring to Putin, Trump said, “He is needlessly killing a lot of people, and I’m not just talking about soldiers. Missiles and drones are being shot into Cities in Ukraine, for no reason whatsoever.”

The reason, Mr. President, is that Putin has been trying to reconstitute the Russian empire, by taking back the former Soviet republics such as Ukraine. The story is told in our book, Back from the Dead: The Return of the Evil Empire, published in 2014.

I don’t agree with many of Robert Zubrin’s points in his article about the “Alt-Right Comintern,” since nationalism and populism in the West are valid political movements and not necessarily in alliance with the Kremlin’s aims. These movements are justifiably upset about the invasions of their respective countries by aliens from other countries. But when they cross the line into making excuses for Putin’s madness you can rest assured they are being infiltrated by Putin’s followers in the orbit around Alexander Dugin.

Dugin’s new book, The Trump Revolution: A New Order of Great Powers, is a vision of what they hoped Trump to become, as he made noises that Russia would come to the table and settle the war in Ukraine on “Day One.” That wasn’t to be, and now Trump has discovered that Putin was and still is a communist, in league with China and North Korea.

In my recent broadcast with geopolitical analyst J.R. “Jeff” Nyquist, we discuss Trump’s blind spots, including his failure to understand the nature of international communism and global Islam. Now that he has recognized the true nature of Putin, he should review the business deals he made with the Arab gulf states, and rethink whether it’s wise to send them advanced microchips for Artificial Intelligence (AI) purposes. They opened doors to Communist China, long before they welcomed America cash from the Big Tech firms based in America.

My belief is that the Arab states funding al-Qaeda and Hamas should not be rewarded with business deals of any kind. And while we are at it, can’t be withdraw our military forces from Qatar? Whatever happened to America First? Wasn’t this Trump’s agenda? Instead, we have been given globalism that provides military support for Arab regimes like Qatar that want to kill us.

The Arabs are committed to Muslim fundamentalism, just like Putin is determined to spread international communism. We should not be getting into bed with either.

Putin is like the communist who killed those two Israeli embassy employees on the streets of Washington, D.C. He wasn’t crazy. He was in the grip of a foreign ideology that justifies murder. He shouted “Free Palestine” as he was taken away. These are the motivations of global Islam and international communism. They will not rest until America is buried.

As we celebrated Memorial Day, our enemies were on the march, as Putin continues his war on Ukraine and the Arab/Muslim states were basking in the glow of business deals arranged by the Trump Administration. The inevitable result will be more wounded warriors in the Middle East, perhaps because of the Sunni Muslims in the Gulf states striking an alliance with the new jihadist president of Syria and then going to war with Shiite Islam in Iran and elsewhere. It is a bloody mess.

Perhaps international communism and global Islam will come to blows, but America is ultimately in the crosshairs.

What I do know is that the war in Ukraine was not settled on Day One and I didn’t expect more involvement in the Middle east under this America First president. Nothing good can come out of it. I do not expect “peace” in Europe or the Middle East.

To his credit, Trump did propose a “Golden Dome” missile defense shield for the United States. That is the immediate priority. National defense is constitutionally mandated. We cannot live without it.

I suggest canceling those high-tech deals with the Arabs, bringing our troops home from Qatar, and ordering our high-tech firms to collaborate on protecting the American people from missile attack. Nothing is more important.

Unseen Money Is the Key To Our Disappearing Freedom

By Kat Stansell

May 26, 2025

Shining The Light On Dark Money

Unless we can fix the dark money that controls all, we have lost our freedom.

Dark Money by the billions flows from big donors to dozens of Political Action Committees to OTHER Political Committees, back and forth, and it spent for things that the Party wants. Forget the people.

Dark Money came to US politics with a SCOTUS decision in 1976, Buckley v. Valeo when the Justices laid out “Eight Magic Words” which defined the difference between electioneering and issue advocacy – exempting the latter from election finance laws.

Dark campaign spending increased from less than $5.2 million nationwide in 2006 to well over $300 million in the 2012 presidential cycle, more than $174 million in the 2014 midterms,[3] $216 million in the 2014 midterm elections,[5] and more than $1 billion in all 2020 federal elections. Many RINOS like Thom Tillis, NC, were the ones to benefit, as they were purchased to join the Globalists.

“Dark Money” refers to funds raised for the purpose of influencing elections, public policy and public discourse, by nonprofits and organizations which are not required to disclose the identities of their donors. The nation is awash in it, with an estimated $3+ billion of it in circulation in the year 2024.

Dark Money controls elections, taxation, insurance and power regulation, the air we breathe and the food we eat. It controls where and how we work, and our children, learn. It controls the cleanliness of our environment, our health and our freedom of choice in every way. Soon, if left unchanged, dark money will be deciding where and how we live; stack and pack small apartment units in UN Agenda communities that allow only bicycles for personal transportation. and availability of food as provided.

Venezuela suffers that today; only three or fewer hours of power every three or four days, little clean water or decent food. Those in Florida, with family in that country, can attest to that and more.

No, I am NOT exaggerating. It’s all in the plan, the UNAgenda plans, which have been slowly wrapping their freedom-destroying tentacles around our lives for decades. Only in the early 1990’s did they get a name.

Florida is signed on to this.

Tallahassee, being of the leftist, or Globalist/totalitarian bent under DeSantis, has long ago forgotten the people, and is living comfortably in the thought that the web they have woven , with the use of of dark-money trading, is sufficient to keep the people on the plantation, and out of the way of the desires of the political class. Tallahassee is fed and watered – and elected – by large corporate interests, and big private monies. Although it all began long before DeGov, we are here with him and his, NOW. We recognize the damage done by previous administrations, both R and D.

Interestingly enough, much of the diatribe I find against “dark money” is from the LEFT, which whined that the US Senate “Republicans” blocked a bill which would have required disclosure, in 2022, during the illegitimate B/O regime. It never once occurred to any of them that, without dark money in the election fraud machinery, Barry and Joe would never have been at 1600 from 2020 – 2024! lol…even though the subject is far from funny…

The left blames the right and vice versa… . Were it not for finger-pointing there would be little activity in Congress most days. In truth, citizens on BOTH SIDES want and need to shine the light on things.

”Left” and “right” refers to the Constitutionalists and the Communists, of course.

Remember that the use of party labels only confuses us today. It is the Communists/Globalists/Marxists who don’t care about the people. The opposition party to the Communists is the Constitutionalists. We DO CARE and are working hard to shine the light where it needs to go. You get it, I know. Just start using and thinking in those terms.

I think, frankly, that breaking up the dark money syndicate will go a long way to showing Americans just how much we have in common. Party labels have been used to divide us for decades.

We The People are a powerful force against darkness. Get thee behind us, Satan.

In this series, I will be looking at Florida’s dark money; its sources and uses, and the players who ply the people with lies upon lies.

With all of Florida’s vaunted sunshine, the state is awash in dark money being used for elections and priorities of the ruling class. More and more unwanted development, “affordable housing”, solar energy (which is very high-cost/low efficiency), less and less agriculture, with higher and higher taxes to bankrupt the homeowner.

Please consult an excellent website, which has been fighting the dark money takeover of the peoples’ rights in Florida. https://comecleanflorida.org/history

I will leave you to think about a few realities in the dark Sunshine State:

Newly elected members of the State Legislature, who have come to Tallahassee with promises to their constituents to fix something or fight against what is going on, are taken aside and told to shut up and sit down. Literally!! Their opinions and those of their constituents are unwelcome and immediately shelved or trashed.

Ah, yes, “the Free State of Florida”.

The preaching and cajoling of the dark legislators is plied among Florida constituents to cajole and confuse them. Tallahassee begins to act as “emotional vampires’, draining away the citizens’ confidence in just what really IS good for them.

Do NOT be misled. Strap on your running shows, and boxing gloves, grab your readers and computer, and join in the fight for Light vs. Dark. Now that you begin to sense the depths of their depravity, go enlist some good pro-American recruits and join us.

We are out to shine real light on the dark spots in Florida, and the bigger and stronger the group, the more Tallahassee will pay heed. Our light will not be hidden under any bushel basket.

Stay tuned. There will be more zoom meetings to join; the next is scheduled for July 26, as it stands. I will give you updates, new things to do, share and think about every few days. Be there, or be content to live in the dark, with no AC, clean water and little food. That’s coming if we don’t. For now, read, learn and ENLIST those who want freedom.

My Father: A United States Marine

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 26, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The United States Must Win the AI Arms Race

By Cliff Kincaid

May 25, 2025

We are in the middle of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) arms race that we must win. So-called “Killer Apps” are being created. “Whoever leads in AI will rule the world,” declared President Vladimir Putin. He understands that his ally, China, is poised to do just that, and now the United States is making it possible.

I am not on the Trump bandwagon for sending powerful Artificial Intelligence microchips and related infrastructure to Arab oil sheiks who have sponsored anti-American terrorism and already have close relationships with Communist China.

I believe global Islam is as dangerous as international communism. We saw an example of that when a communist supporter of the “Free Palestine” movement shot and killed two Israeli embassy staffers, one a Christian and one a Jew, on the streets of Washington, D.C.

In an April 1 letter, I had specifically warned FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino about the Red-Green or Communist-Muslim alliance planning violence in America. On my Rumble program, investigative journalist James Simpson discussed his research into the subject.

Tragically, what President Trump has done, through his Middle East tour, is fall for the same line that convinced the global elites to build up China, insisting that trade and commerce would transform the communist giant into a friend, not a foe. It did not work.

The MAGA movement needs to understand that, before Trump was traveling through the Middle East region making deals with the Arab oil sheiks, China was doing so, and already has a strong presence in the Islamic world. That inevitably means that high-tech being transferred to the Gulf Arab states will make its way to China.

As part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), which was launched in 2013, Beijing launched the Digital Silk Road (DSR) in 2015 that quickly made inroads including projects and “cooperation areas” in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

As far back as 2020, the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission was warned by Steven Feldstein, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, that major Chinese firms such as Huawei, ZTE, Hikvision, Dahua, Meiya Pico, Sensetime, and others, were “building surveillance networks, peddling hi-tech censorship tools, and supplying advanced social media monitoring capabilities” to countries around the world, including the Arab states of the Middle East.

These same capabilities, having been deployed to monitor and control their domestic populations, can now be used, in conjunction with the advanced technologies authorized by Trump, to monitor U.S. military forces in the region, including the Al Udeid Air Base, located in Doha, Qatar, for the benefit of China and its strategic partner Russia.

Under Biden, in January 2024, U.S. officials reached a secret agreement to extend the American military presence at the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar for another 10 years. Trump has not rescinded it.

Now, with Trump’s acquiesce, American-based firms like Cisco and Amazon are investing $5 billion in an “AI zone” in Saudi Arabia while AI chipmakers Nvidia and AMD will provide tens of thousands of semiconductors and advanced AI chips to Saudi Arabia’s AI venture “Humain,” Qatar’s QCAI, and the United Arab Emirates enterprise known as G42.

Under Biden, Microsoft invested $1.5 billion back in 2024 in G42 “to accelerate AI development and global expansion.” Rep. John Moolenaar (R-MI), chairman of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party, warned at the time that the relationship could “open a backdoor for U.S. technology & dollars to flow to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) surveillance state & military research.”

The House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party cited evidence that G42’s CEO Peng Xiao “operates and is affiliated with an expansive network of UAE and People’s Republic of China-based companies that develop dual-use technologies and materially support PRC military-civil fusion and human rights abuses.”

The company posted a photo of H.H. Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Chairman of G42; Brad Smith, Microsoft Vice Chair and President; and Peng Xiao, Group Chief Executive Officer of G42. Peng Xiao is described in one report as a controversial figure who renounced his American citizenship in exchange for UAE citizenship and has done deals with Huawei, China’s huge telecommunications firm described in a 2012 report from the House Intelligence Committee as a threat to U.S. national security interests.

Now, in the wake of Trump’s deals, Rep. Moolenaar warns that the sensitive chip deals with Gulf nations represent “a vulnerability” for the Chinese Communist Party to exploit. He added, “The CCP is actively working to indirectly access our most advanced technology. Without a formal AI diffusion rule, deals like this risk creating backdoor vulnerabilities for export control circumvention.”

The so-called “AI diffusion rule” represents export controls over chips with national security implications. Trump has limited exports of advanced AI chips to China but if they go to China through the Arab states the export controls will obviously fail.

Ironically, we are told the Big Business deals arranged by Trump for the Arab states are designed to freeze Red China out of the market. Trump’s AI czar David Sacks said that there is no risk “with a friend like Saudi Arabia.”

Saudi Arabia is not a friend. The late Middle East expert Dore Gold wrote a book, Hatred’s Kingdom (2003), on how 9-11 was a Saudi operation. Al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden was a Saudi and 15 of the 19 skyjackers were Saudis.

Former Al-Jazeera reporter Yosri Fouda interviewed the al-Qaeda architects of 9/11, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and Ramzi bin al-Shibh, and co-authored a book about it entitled Masterminds of Terror.

Decades later, justice still has not been done.

The case of United States v. Khalid Shaikh Mohammad, the 9/11 mastermind, and other al-Qaeda operatives is scheduled for August 18 – September 5, 2025, at the Expeditionary Legal Complex located in Naval Station Guantanamo Bay (NSGB) Cuba. He is a Pakistani national who was based in Qatar.

Huawei had opened a cloud data center in the Saudi capital Riyadh back in 2023 and staged the “Huawei Cloud Summit” in Saudi Arabia in 2024. This is an outpost for espionage, including the theft of American technology.

NSA/CIA defector Edward Snowden had arrived in Chinese Hong Kong in 2013, before going to Russia, and his disclosures included documents on NSA surveillance of Huawei, one of many sources of hacking attacks on the United States and other countries. Not surprisingly, Chinese hacking attacks have been increasing since the Snowden disclosures because they now understand how the NSA spies on them.

Snowden exposed operations targeting China, “severing an intelligence capability that could have yielded a sustained flow of critical information on Beijing’s highly secretive leadership structure, deliberations, and decisions,” noted analyst Daniel McKivergan. “His actions also spurred China to overhaul its communications network.”

In addition to Huawei, Chinese companies Alibaba, China Telecom, Dahua, SenseTime, Tencent, and ZTE are also heavily invested in the Gulf Arab states. SenseTime is a Chinese state-owned artificial intelligence company headquartered in Chinese Hong Kong.

The Huawei presence in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates, the last stop on Trump’s Middle East tour, was the subject of an investigative report by the Defense One website, which focuses on national security threats to the U.S. “The United States bases many of its regional forces within or near the same urban areas now wired by Chinese gear,” the report says.

Trump appeared before and spoke to U.S. forces at the Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar. It is already the largest U.S. military installation in the Middle East and Trump has announced its expansion, saying Qatar will invest $10 billion in the base.

The report by Tye Graham and Peter W. Singer reveals that “The United States still supplies the bulk of Gulf security, yet its presence now overlaps with Chinese telecom towers and cloud racks, a juxtaposition that complicates intelligence protection and crisis planning.”

The U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission notes that the Middle East is “a region of strategic importance to China” and that it seeks to become the dominant power in the region while appearing content “for the moment to free-ride on the U.S. and allied regional security infrastructure.”

That means, in effect, that the Qatar base as well as U.S. arms shipments to the region will serve to protect Chinese investments in the Gulf Arab states.

Bring our troops home from Qatar

Viewed in this context, Trump’s last-ditch campaign to increase American involvement in the Gulf through Big Money deals with Arab oil sheiks will most certainly backfire by making it easier for China to steal American technology, monitor U.S. military forces in the region, and continue to scheme to dominate the world in collaboration with Russia.

Out Of The Abundance Of The Heart

By Rob Pue

May 25, 2025

We live in an increasingly crass and crude society today. Sexual perversion and sexual innuendos are everywhere we look… from billboards on the roadside to popular music on the radio — (which you can’t avoid, because it’s even played over the speakers at your local convenience store and in public restaurants) — to every television program and movie to the hallways of our public schools, halls of government and the store window displays on the main street of your town. One can no longer even walk through a public shopping mall without seeing what would have once been considered X-rated material, now proudly displayed as advertising and window dressing.

I remember instructing my children when they were teenagers, regarding their friends’ swearing and filthy talk and jokes. At that age, you know, kids want to feel and act like “grown-ups,” so I told them that “GROWN UPS do not swear.” My point was that swearing and filthy talk was immature and shows a person’s ignorance and stupidity. I was quickly corrected by my kids, as all of them, nearly in unison shot back: “OH YES THEY DO!” “Really?” I asked, “Grownups swear? What grownups do you know that swear?” Their response: “TEACHERS.” Yes, their public school teachers would use foul language that would make a drunken sailor blush on a regular basis — and that was many years ago already. Nice role models, huh?

It’s very sad that this seems to be the way most Americans speak these days. I hear it when I’m out in public just about every day now. Young people, especially, cannot seem to complete a sentence without using the “F Word” anymore. But many adults are no better. Have you been in a store shopping and observed a mother with young children who are acting unruly — and she is swearing and cursing at them, thinking nothing of it? I have. And worse yet, have you seen young children — 4, 5 or 6 years old — throwing a temper tantrum and SWEARING at their parents, using some of the filthiest language you’ve ever heard? How incredibly sad. You know, they learned that from SOMEWHERE. “Kids these days?” What about “Parents these days?!”

What’s wrong with us, that so many speak such filth as part of our everyday conversations, and think nothing of it? What ever happened to shame?

I remember when I was in high school — yes public high school — everybody swore. The halls of the school were filled with vulgarity… and that was a very long time ago. The teachers did nothing to stop it or to reprimand students speaking that way… they just accepted it as “the norm.” And I remember sitting with a group of people as we waited for the bus one day after school, and one guy saying, “Rob, what’s wrong with you? You never swear. Everybody swears. But I’ve never heard you swear.” I must have been about 15 or so at the time. I explained that I just don’t do it and told him, “I never learned to swear.” “Never learned to swear!” he exclaimed. He couldn’t believe such a thing. “You don’t have to learn to swear! It’s just natural,” he said. …Not for me, it wasn’t.

And as I stated earlier, now, from what I understand, schoolteachers themselves are using the same sort of language in front of their students, giving tacit agreement that such talk is just a normal way to express one’s thoughts and feelings. Yeah, great role models we have.

I’ve also been in situations where I’m speaking with a friend and one of THEIR friends walks in and starts swearing up a storm. It’s obvious that my friend accepts that sort of talk and probably participates in it as well, but because of who I am and what I DO, he’s embarrassed that his other friend would walk in and start swearing — not out of anger, just as part of normal conversation. My friend then introduces me to the other person as a way to caution the guy to “watch your language”: “This is Rob Pue,” he tells him. “He’s the publisher of Wisconsin CHRISTIAN News.”

Not so long ago, that statement would make the foul-mouthed person feel ashamed of himself, for swearing in front of a Christian. You could see them shrink back and begin apologizing for what they said in front of me. (Not that my delicate ears can’t handle it — as I said, I hear it constantly nowadays). Just that people used to have a measure of conscience. But no more. If anything, learning that I work in full time Christian ministry just emboldens people now, to swear MORE…. as if to say, “who do you think YOU are that I should change my behavior in front of you?” Our society has lost its collective conscience, our sense of shame. We’re proud of what we should be ashamed of and ashamed of what we should be proud of.

It’s sad, because what that guy told me in school when I was 15 seems to be true now: everybody swears. Parents swearing at their children, toddlers swearing at their parents… foul language everywhere we go, as part of normal, everyday conversation. You see it a lot on social media. I find it very sad and especially disgusting when young teen or pre-teen girls curse and swear and use filthy language in their communications on Facebook. Some of these girls list “The Bible” as one of their favorite books. Some post pictures of their adventures at Bible camp or their church youth group — and then a ton of “selfie” pictures, trying their best to look “sexy” and “sexually provocative” along with an abundance of “F bombs” and other nasty language and presenting themselves as anything but “lady-like.” Where are their parents? Obviously, these young women learned this behavior and attitude somewhere. And these, again, are very often professing CHRISTIAN young women. I must wonder what they’re really learning in “church.”

God’s Word has a LOT to say about our speech and how we are to portray ourselves, as Christ-followers, to the culture around us. But now, let’s be clear… now, we are talking about TRUE Christ-followers. We can’t expect the carnal, worldly person to act like Jesus. But if WE are the “real deal,” with the Holy Spirit living inside us, then it should take no effort whatsoever on our part for the world to see God IN us. But if we’re false converts, fooling ourselves… that’s another matter. We may be able to shut down our consciences and fool ourselves. But we’re not fooling anyone else; and we’re certainly not fooling God. As Jesus said in Luke 6, “…out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” So, what is TRULY in our hearts will naturally flow out, whether that be goodness and light, or darkness and filthy sewage.

The Psalmist wrote in Psalm 141:3, “Set a guard, O Lord, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips!”

And Proverbs is filled with admonitions on how we are to speak. Proverbs 10: “The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom, but the perverse tongue will be cut off. The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable, but the mouth of the wicked, what is perverse.”

And Proverbs 15:28b, “…the mouth of the wicked pours out evil things.” And of course, 18:21, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue…”

Jesus taught His disciples about these matters also and He warned in Matthew 12:36, “I tell you, on the day of judgment, people will give account for every idle work they speak.” Also, Matthew 15:11, “It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person.”

Then we have Ephesians 4:29, “Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but only that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.”

Ephesians 5 is especially instructive on this topic: “But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints; Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks. For this you know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. Be not ye therefore partakers with them. For you were once darkness, but now are you light in the Lord: walk as children of light. For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth; Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.”

When we become true Christians, following Jesus with His Holy Spirit living inside us, it’s just not possible for us to continue living our old, carnal lifestyles. In Colossians 3 we are told, “But now ye also put off all these things: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.” I just don’t know how one could be filled with the Spirit and speak like the devil at the same time.

We are not only smarter than that, but we are also better than that… we have, as Christians, the very Spirit of God within us. That Spirit has come in and replaced the spirit of darkness that used to dwell there. And as we learned in Luke 6, “…out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” So how, then, can a person have the heart of Christ and yet speak like the devil’s children? Doing so makes us look stupid. Every swear word a person utters as part of their normal conversation — to me — seems to lower their IQ by ten more points. It also immediately reveals them to be phony “Christians.” Having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof. Quenching the Holy Spirit, if the Spirit was ever there to begin with.

In this day and age, where it seems “everybody swears,” please understand — even if that used to be the way you spoke, it doesn’t have to be anymore, once you are born again with the Spirit of Christ within you. You’ve been given a new heart, your soul has been washed clean, your mind becomes the mind of Christ. God’s will becomes your will. Why, then, would you continue speaking, acting, and portraying yourself as carnal and worldly when you should now be a NEW creation? “Be not conformed to this world, but be transformed, by the renewing of your mind you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” (Romans 12:2).

I pray this message has given you something to think about. You may like to share it with someone who needs to ponder all these things as well. And I pray that as we take the name of Christ, as CHRISTIANS, that we’re not taking our Lord’s name in vain — calling ourselves “Christians” while we really never had any heart-change and have never been born again by the Spirit of God.

As the world sinks deeper into darkness and depravity, chaos and confusion, some of those lost ones will soon be looking to US to find God. I believe the hunger and thirst for righteousness will increase in these last days, at least among SOME, and those of us who name the name of Christ need to be set apart, our lives shining examples of what COULD be for those who are lost and seeking. So let us represent our Savior and our Lord well.

My prayer is the same as that we find in Psalm 19:14, “Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.” Amen.

Heading in the Wrong Direction

By Pastor Glynn Adams

May 25, 2025

It seems to me that most Americans are now realizing that America is heading in the wrong direction. While we may disagree on the reasons why we are heading in the wrong direction, the fact remains we are heading in the wrong direction. In this article today, I want to present four reasons why America is heading in the wrong direction.

One thing that started us in the wrong direction is we are divided as a nation and the church is divided. Jesus said in Mark 3:25, “If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.” A kingdom, a nation, a church, or a marriage divided against itself, cannot stand. America is so divided and so is the Body of Christ in America. Our enemies have worked hard to divide our nation and the church and if we won’t resist this division and work harder to unite us than our enemies did to divide us, we will continue in the wrong direction. No use for the details now; we either make the choice to unite or we will not stand! We must make the choice first: the Divided or the United States of America! When Satan is ignored and allowed to function openly without opposition, there will always be division.

The second reason for the wrong direction is a lack of knowledge. The Bible says in Hosea 4:6, “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.” I want to contrast lack of knowledge with ignorance. Knowledge is truth on a matter and ignorance is not that you are stupid and cannot learn. Ignorance is where you have been taught the wrong thing or you have been lied to and you believe the lie or you have ignored a truth.

Think about this – the area in your life where you don’t know truth or have knowledge, how much of a hindrance is that to you and your loved ones? How bad is the little things you are overlooking hurting you, your family, or nation? Proverbs says we perish for lack of knowledge. Are we going to ignore that? Satan is not yet in hell as many think so he operates in our ignorance. Satan operates in what you don’t know. When you are ignorant of a matter and you come into agreement with Satan, Satan has permission to affect your life with sickness or whatever he desires.

Remember what happened to Adam and Eve when they came into agreement with Satan? And you “will” come into agreement with Satan if you don’t have the knowledge or truth of the Word of God on a matter. Remember the old saying, “What you don’t know can’t hurt you? That is a lie from hell! Terrible things can happen in what you don’t know. This is why the lies and deception of Satan are such powerful tools for him. Only knowledge of the truth can protect you from Satan and his ways.

I have never seen so much spiritual ignorance and lack of Biblical knowledge in our nation and in the church as it is today. We have absolutely no idea of the consequences of our ignorance on our everyday life. We depend too much on someone else for our knowledge. Today it is easy to believe a lie or be deceived. We are to study to show ourselves approved, dividing the Word of God. Most citizens or churchgoers have little to no knowledge of what is going on in this nation and why. Until we mature more and come to the knowledge of the truth, America will continue to go in the wrong direction. Our education systems in America are being used to destroy our seed and until we rid this nation of the Department of Education and give education back to the local communities, we will continue to head as a nation and church in the wrong direction.

The third reason for our wrong direction as a nation is we are ignorant of our Constitution and we are no longer living by it. It takes a moral and righteous people to maintain a Republic!! It is amazing how little we live by our Constitution as a nation and that is why we are heading in the wrong direction. Our Founding Fathers relied heavily on 700 years of blood bought history to form a Republic where WE THE PEOPLE HAD THE LIBERTY, POWER, AND AUTHORITY TO CONTROL THE Federal Government not the Federal Government having the power to control WE THE PEOPLE. They knew the repressive nature of a central government and what happens when that government gets too big and powerful.

When we abandon our founding documents and disregard our moral foundations as we are doing today, liberty is put in peril. One of the greatest deception and attack on our Republic has been the distortion of the very nature and framework of our governmental structure. Namely, the incorrect notion that the Constitution says the Federal Government in Washington, D.C. is the supreme boss over the States. In truth, it was not the Federal Government but the States and WE THE PEOPLE who were intended to retain the most power in our Republic.

The last paragraph of the Declaration of Independence gives us all we need to properly understand the difference between the modern misconception and the framer’s intent in regard to the Federal Government and the States. Our Founders saw our States as sovereign governments or nations just like Great Britain, France, or Spain. No mention yet of a Federal Government. If you read further in the Declaration of Independence, we can see even more evidence of the sovereign nature of these newly independent and sovereign States. It not only equates each new Sate with Great Britain in title but also in power, authority, and responsibility. “As Free and Independent States, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which independent States may of right do.” The States could close our borders if they wanted to!!!

So the nature of the States is that they are sovereign, independent, and free governments that existed prior to the establishment of a Federal or Central Government in Washington, D.C. Hopefully, before it is too late, the citizens of this nation will cast off their ignorance and discover that the solution to controlling the Federal Government lies in the knowledge and application of the sovereignty of the States which they have possessed from the very founding of this nation and before a Federal Government was formed.

So the long-term solution for the preservation of Liberty was to create a Federal or Central Government. It’s purpose would be to do as a single voice what the States would otherwise have to do individually. If foreign nations wanted to trade with our nation, instead of thirteen separate treaties and rules, this confederation of States in the form of a Federal or Central Government would allow for one treaty rather than thirteen. The intent of the Federal Government was to act in the States’ interests to protect and promote Liberty and prosperity within our borders. So the Federal or Central Government is a creation of the States by delegated power from the States.

The Federal Government was intended to be an agent for the States, not rule over the States. The key to understanding that the Federal Government has no sovereignty of its own outside the power “delegated” to it by the States. The State Legislatures will jealously and closely watch the operations of the Federal Government and be able to resist every assumption of power and to be sure guardians of the people’s liberty so said James Madison.

Perhaps you have now seen why we are going in the wrong direction. Since the 1900s, a process carried out by the Bankers Cartel, our Presidents, our Congress, our State Governments, our Judicial and our Universities to deliberately distort and increase our Federal Governmental powers. For years now our trusted politicians and institutions were moving us further and further away from the intent of our Founding Fathers. Until we get back to our Founding Documents, America will continue heading in the wrong direction.(Thanks to KrisAnne Hall for her book, SOVEREIGN DUTY)

The fourth reason we are headed in the wrong direction is we no longer seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.(Matthew 6:33) Notice Jesus did not say to seek Him first, but seek first His Kingdom. He is the Kingdom! Today we seek religion and a form of godliness. That is why we are heading in the wrong direction in this nation. So the best and wisest and most powerful man who ever lived – Jesus Christ made the Kingdom of God His message. He called it the Good News – the Gospel of the Kingdom. The “good news of the rule of God.” It is the only thing He called the gospel. “He went out preaching the gospel of the Kingdom.” (Mathew 4:23) He sent out His disciples to preach the gospel of the Kingdom of God. He used the phrase, “the Kingdom of God” or its equivalent a hundred times in the New Testament.

Jesus summed up His life purpose for coming to earth in these words, “I must give the good news of the Kingdom of God to the other towns also, for that is what I was sent to do.” (Luke 4:43) What did Jesus mean by this? He made it the first petition in the Lord’s Prayer, “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is done in heaven.” The second phrase explains the first, the coming of the Kingdom was the doing of the will of God on earth as it is done in heaven. How is that prayer working out for America with her churches on almost every corner? The rule of God has not come to America, Satan now rules America. Why is that? Because our churches don’t seek first the Kingdom of God; today we seek the church first but the church is not the kingdom. I’m going to make a statement here that every Christian in this nation is going to wish they would have seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and….all these things will be added to you.

What are all these things that will be added to you? The Kingdom has benefits but it also has consequences if you don’t seek it first. Our government at this very time is deliberately setting us up for a food and water shortage in this nation. What are these things that will be added to you! If you will go up to verse 25 in Matthew 6, you will see the context of what things will be added to you. Don’t be anxious for your life as to what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; not for your body, what you will put on. God takes care of the birds, lilies of the field, So, if you seek the Kingdom of God first, all these things, food, where you live, and clothing will be added to you. Do you get it church in America? If you seek first the Kingdom, all these things will be added to you!!! However, if you do not seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, all these things will be subtracted from you. In America today, these things are being subtracted by our government. HATH GOD REALLY SAID TO SEEK FIRST HIS KINGDOM?!! Yes, Yes!

Matthew 24:14, Jesus tells us just how important this Kingdom is to Him. “And this gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in the whole world for a witness to all the nations, and then the end shall come.” What? You show your ignorance when you declare Jesus is coming soon. We haven’t preached the Kingdom of God in this nation much less the whole world! Today pastors and church members seek the kingdom of Baptist, the kingdom of Pentecostals, the kingdom of Kenneth Copeland. Until HIS righteousness becomes OUR righteousness and we FORSAKE our Baptist or Pentecostal righteousness, we will continue in the wrong direction. This is why we are divided, why we are ignorant, why we can’t maintain our Constitution, and why Satan rules over us in America and not God. We are going in the wrong direction but if we will humble ourselves and repent; change our religious ways, God is a God of restoration and He will restore America!! God bless, I remain His warrior and watchman.

Memorial Day 2025: Will Americans Still Die For Freedom?

by Rees Lloyd

May 24, 2025

Memorial Day—which will be officially observed on Monday, May 26, this year — is a day to remember what should be remembered every day: The service and sacrifice of the more than 1.3-million American veterans who have given their lives in war so that we, their posterity, might live as free Americans. (See attached below a chart of casualties in all the wars from the War of Independence to Iraq and Afghanistan.)

Maj. General Patrick H. Brady (USA, ret.), Medal of Honor recipient (Vietnam), is considered to be America’s most decorated living veteran. Along with his daughter, Army veteran Meghan Brady Smith, Gen. Brady is the author of the memoir, “Dead Men Flying: Victory in Viet Nam, The Legend Of ‘Dust-off:’ America’s Battlefield Angels”). Gen. Brady reminds us on Memorial Day:

“We have no ‘titles of nobility’ under our Constitution. America’s ‘nobles’ are our veterans. On Memorial Day, what is most important, indeed, most vital, is that we remember, honor, and are grateful for, the courage, love, service and sacrifice of America’s veterans in defense of our freedom—especially those more than 1.3-million veterans who have given their lives defending our country. They are the soul of freedom, the guardians of our Constitution, and the vault for the values of our nation.”

Similarly, the late-General Norman (“Stormin’ Norman”) Schwarzkopf, Commander of forces in the Persian Gulf War (“Desert Storm”), succinctly stated an enduring truth: “Some things are worth living for. Some things are worth dying for. One of those things is freedom.”

We Americans of this era owe a great debt to those American patriots who came before us, veterans who gave their lives for freedom. We pay that debt to those Americans who came before us by what we are willing to do to preserve freedom for the Americans who will come after us.

Certain truths endure and must be recognized, perhaps especially on Memorial Day, if the American people are going to live in freedom. The first enduring truth is that freedom is not free. It has been purchased by the blood of American patriots, over 1.3-million of whom have given their lives in defense of our freedom.

The second enduring truth is that Americans will not remain free unless this and every generation of Americans is willing to fight and die if necessary in defense of American freedom— as all prior generations have done to preserve freedom. I attach below data on those patriotic veterans who have given their lives for our freedom in all the wars.

We Americans on this Memorial Day must honor those patriot veterans who gave their lives for our freedom, and we must ask ourselves: Are we Americans still a people willing to die to preserve freedom, as did those more than 1.3-million veterans who gave their lives to preserve freedom for us?

I attach also the great war poem In Flanders Fields. Although written in 1915 during the Battle of Ypres in WWI, it is as relevant, compelling, and moving today as it was then. This is most especially true of the final lines, which call on us to take up the “torch” of freedom from the falling hands of those dying, and warns: “If ye break faith with us who die/We shall not sleep, though poppies grow/In Flanders fields.”

If we are to remain free, we Americans must not “break faith” with those 1.3-million American veterans who have given their lives for American freedom.

May God bless and keep each and all of them; and may we Americans always honor and never forget them.

FOR GOD AND COUNTRY FOREVER; SURRENDER TO TYRANNY—NEVER!

FREEDOM IS NOT FREE — REMEMBER THE AMERICANS WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN WAR THAT WE MIGHT BE FREE:

In Flanders Fields

by [Canadian] Major John McCrae, May 1915, WW 1

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be it yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Land of Liars, Land of Slaves

By Karen Schoen

May 24, 2025

Either YOU OWN the property, or YOU ARE the property!

I don’t know how many of you had the opportunity to listen to President Trump’s speech in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia? I think it was one of the best ones he’s ever done, to date. Amazing speech. Here’s the link in case you want to listen.

The whole gist of the speech can be summarized is that America is open for business! America is not looking for War. America is not looking to spread Democracy. America is not looking to get involved with Arab culture. Your culture is your own. America is open for business and is looking for trade. Trade is what will make all of us strong. Once we are involved economically, the chances of War become minimal.

I was also amazed to see the amount of American flags, the pageantry and tribute to America that these new Middle Eastern partners displayed. Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince greeted President Trump personally on a royal purple carpet, flanked by a guard of honor, reserved only for most-favored guests. President Trump was escorted by a 6-fighter F-15 honorary jet escort by the Royal Saudi Air Force. Qatar escorted Air Force One with 8 fighter jets. The UAE awarded Donald Trump its highest civilian award available.

Playing the National Anthem was the icing on the cake. Then I thought, how sad it is that our schools don’t even bother displaying the American flag, let alone play the National Anthem. How Ironic. In our own country, patriotism is frowned on.

America has become the land of give me, give me, give me. And by the way, if you have it and I want it, I will steal and take what I want without any consequences. Bad behavior is rewarded. It seems as though there is never enough money and there is never enough power for the Elite. The only way they can keep it and get more is to lie, cheat, and steal. We have become the Land of Liars.

They lied about Biden’s health, and we knew it. Yet our impotent, incompetent RINO leaders refused to do anything about it. They allowed Leftist insane Marxist ideology of open borders, mega spending, loss of free speech and government controlled healthcare to rule. How can we allow any Biden policy to stand? Easy, do nothing and the RINOs will continue to fund his programs like the Green New Deal to subsidize China.

We will let them use programs like Sustainable Developments … aka 15 Minute Cities and Smart Cities … to herd us into walkable, NOT drivable, low emission neighborhoods … aka Prisons, Ghettos, or concentration camps.

EAT, LIVE AND SHOP WHERE YOU LIVE AND CAN WALK TO. HAIRDRESSER, GROCERY, DOCTOR – NOT WHERE YOU WANT TO GO BUT WHERE YOU MUST GO. With constant surveillance every step you take, every breath you make, every move you make, they will be watching you.

These evil people must strip you of everything you own – especially your home. My favorite movie was “Gone With The Wind.”

My favorite line: “The land is the only thing in the world worth working for, worth fighting for, worth dying for, because it’s the only thing that lasts”…..Gerald O’Hara, Gone With The Wind.”

Land is an asset which can be leveraged to accumulate wealth. We are considered subservient and cannot have wealth.

“We will have nothing and be happy.”

Never forget 2008. Billions of our tax dollars were given to the banks, who along with George W Bush created the mortgage melt down. The RINOS forced us into foreclosure by shipping our jobs overseas. Instead of giving each American the money to pay rent or mortgages, they gave our money to the rich bankers who foreclosed on us. Then they called us deadbeats. Today, they are making the taxes so high, people are being forced off their land. Nothing changes, unless we change it ourselves!

The contrast of the reception in the Middle East versus the Left in America is so staggering! It really shows the disdain and contempt that the Left and RINOS have for the American people.

You need to Sit Up and pay Attention Now! THIS IS DEEP!

“The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself.” – Club of Rome, premier environmental think-tank, consultants to the United Nations.

This is what they think of us, and teach our children!

Their ultimate goal is Depopulation. Still having a hard time wrapping your head around the real issue?

ELITES WANT AMERICA DESTROYED, AND THEY WANT US ALL…DEAD.

If you are not an Elite, you are a Useless Eater. You are using and hogging up resources that Elites feel only they are entitled to. You need to go die.

See this documentary: AGENDA: Grinding America Down

Then, take a look at this map, which we call the Death Map from Dr Michael Coffman. The Wildlands Project and UN Convention on Biological Diversity Plan to Restore Biodiversity in the United States

The United Nations lied to Congress, saying that Agenda 21 didn’t exist. Today, it is called Agenda 2030.

• Everything is connected
• Nothing is random
• Everything happens for a reason
• Everything is a LIE

So what do we do about this mess we are in?

1. Support President Trump
2. VOTE in the PRIMARIES and toss the RINOS out
3. Contact your legislators and tell them WE WANT DOGE CUTS
4. Don’t listen to the Lies!

Amazon/Etsy Sell Assassination Gear

By Kat Stansell

May 23, 2025

Two huge international online retailers, Etsy and Amazon, are allowing their merchants to sell Assassination-promoting gear.

Read that and repeat, if necessary. It’s all true, as reported by several online news sites. There are, at this time, SEVEN PAGES of “8647” gear.

Crime has taken on the status of cult heroics

If you agree, that this is A-OK, please join the American Communist Party.

IF NOT, please contact both, and let them know your displeasure and disgust. I, personally will never buy from either again. Etsy, I gave up long ago, Amazon, I just emptied something form my cart, after I posted about this on X.

Not only is this hideously immoral, but also, is a violation of 18 U.S. Code § 1751. Under this law, it is a crime to even threaten the lives of our public officials.

Here is the contact information for both companies:

Please contact Amazon at:

Ken Paxton’s Thunderous Charge to Oust John Cornyn

By Amil Imani

May 23, 2025

Texas stands at a crossroads, and the 2026 U.S. Senate race is shaping up to be a seismic clash that will shake the Lone Star State to its core. On one side we have Ken Paxton, Texas Attorney General, a relentless champion of conservative values and a loyal ally of President Donald Trump. On the other, John Cornyn, a fossilized relic of the Republican establishment, squatting in the Senate since 2002, delivering nothing but empty promises and betrayals to the people of Texas. This isn’t just a primary — it’s a battle to reclaim Texas’ future, and Paxton is the strike force we need to obliterate Cornyn’s reign of mediocrity.

Cornyn’s 24-year tenure in the Senate stands as a monument to failure. He’s done nothing for Texas—zero, zilch, nada. While Texans demanded bold action on border security, Cornyn turned his back, refusing to champion Trump’s border wall and siding with the D.C. swamp. He voted for a $95 billion foreign aid package, funneling our hard-earned money to overseas conflicts while Texas’s borders remain porous. He supported a bipartisan gun control bill after the Uvalde tragedy, trampling on our Second Amendment-protected rights. Cornyn’s record screams RINO. He’s a spineless opportunist who’s cozy with the Bush-era establishment, not the fierce America-First movement Texans crave. As Paxton declared on Fox News, “It’s hard to think of the things that he’s done good for Texas or the country.” Damn right.

Paxton, on the other hand, is a juggernaut. He’s a proven fighter who’s taken on the Biden administration’s lunacy—suing over immigration policies, abortion bans, and gender-affirming care for minors. He survived a sham impeachment in 2023, orchestrated by the same Republican old guard that Cornyn represents. Paxton’s acquittal by the Texas Senate was a middle finger to the establishment, proving his unshakable support among grassroots conservatives. Polls scream his dominance: a January 2025 University of Houston survey showed 36% of GOP primary voters favoring Paxton over Cornyn’s 32%. A Fabrizio, Lee & Associates poll had Paxton crushing Cornyn 53% to 28%. The latest Senate Leadership Fund poll, reported by Punchbowl News, has Paxton obliterating Cornyn 56% to 40%. The message is clear: Texans are done with Cornyn’s weak-kneed leadership.

Cornyn’s campaign is a desperate, flailing mess. He’s resorted to pathetic stunts, like posting a staged photo on X reading Trump’s book, trying to cozy up to the MAGA base he’s spent years betraying. Social media roasted him for it, with users on X calling out his blatant pandering. Cornyn’s team has the gall to call Paxton a “fraud” and a “conman,” but let’s talk facts. Cornyn’s been in office for over two decades and can’t point to a single transformative achievement for Texas. He’s a career politician who has mastered the art of doing nothing while collecting a paycheck. Paxton, meanwhile, has been a relentless force, taking on Big Tech, fighting voter fraud, and defending Texas’s sovereignty. His legal battles? A badge of honor, proof he’s a threat to the corrupt elite.

The X battlefield is ablaze with this fight. Posts from users of all hues trumpet Paxton’s lead, with the Senate Leadership Fund poll showing him crushing Cornyn by 16 points. Some called it a “landslide,” and they’re not wrong. Cornyn’s whiny response on X, claiming Paxton would lose to a Democrat, is laughable. He’s projecting his own weakness. Paxton’s grassroots support is a tidal wave, fueled by Texans who see him as a warrior for their values. Cornyn’s only defense is to sling mud, like his cowardly “Hard to run from prison, Ken” jab, referencing Paxton’s past legal fights—fights Paxton won, by the way, while Cornyn was busy cozying up to Chuck Schumer.

The stakes couldn’t be higher. Republicans hold a slim 53-47 Senate majority, and Cornyn’s allies are terrified that Paxton’s primary victory could cost them the seat. They’re mistaken. Paxton is the only one who can galvanize the base and maintain Texas’s red status. Cornyn’s baggage—his support for DACA, his vote to certify Biden’s election, his gun control betrayal—makes him a liability. A May 2025 poll from the Houston Chronicle indicated that Democrat Colin Allred could beat Paxton in a general election, but only by a razor-thin margin. Cornyn is no safer; the same poll had him narrowly edging out Allred. The difference? Paxton has the fire to rally conservatives, while Cornyn’s weak leadership would leave voters apathetic.

This race serves as a referendum on the GOP’s soul. Paxton embodies the future: unapologetic, Trump-aligned, and ready to challenge the D.C. establishment. Cornyn represents the past, a tired symbol of the Bush-era GOP that Texans have outgrown. As Texas Scorecard’s “Y’All Answered” poll indicated, 65% of readers support Paxton or other challengers over Cornyn. The Texas Tribune reported that Paxton’s approval rating among Republicans stands at 60%, overshadowing Cornyn’s disappointing 48%. KVUE pointed out that Cornyn is facing his toughest primary yet, and News From The States cautioned that Texas’s rightward shift spells trouble for the senator. Even Cornyn’s own allies, like Senate Majority Leader John Thune, cannot rescue him from the grassroots tsunami.

Stupid is As Stupid Does

By Coach Dave Daubenmire

May 22, 2025

The days of “One nation UNDER GOD, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all” is simply a hollow meme from the past. That nation, to which we pledge fidelity, is none of the things mentioned in the Pledge of Allegiance.

One nation UNDER God

Indivisible

With Liberty and Justice for all.

Words. Those are simply words that they taught us to mouth in elementary school. The American Government represents none of those values. Zero. NADA. A total meaningless fraud.

America is a captured nation. A nation no longer controlled by the Christians who founded it, but, as the Scriptures warn us, Evil men who have crept in unawares and have turned our nation into something that it never was intended to be.

A secular nation is a godless nation. Although, according to recent studies at least 65% of Americans identify with some form of Christianity, (down from 80% a generation ago) our Government is atheistic. That was decided by the SCOTUS in 1947 when they determined in Everson V Board that there was a “separation between the church and the state.”

Almighty God was evicted from his position of King of Kings and relegated to the role of just one of the many “gods” that Americans served. This is the rotten fruit of the atheistic government-run indoctrination system controlling your LOCAL schools.

Jesus Christ, the most essential figure in the history of Western Civilization…the man by whom all time is measured around the world…BC AD…is not even mentioned in your PUBLIC funded educational system.

Jesus is just another guy to hang out with…Buddha…Mohammed…Lucifer…pick your deity in modern American democracy…

If America was really a nation UNDER GOD, would it be important to identify whom that Deity might be? The pledge says GOD…singular…not gods plural. America has become one nation under many gods…or no gods…whatever floats your boat.

What makes a behavior or action “right or wrong”? Who determines that? By what standard do our judges and “lawmakers” base their decisions? The Bible asks us “Can two walk together less they agree?” What is the American standard by which right and wrong are measured? We call that MORALITY. What makes something moral…or immoral? An unelected judge? What is his/her standard?

Look. Individuals are Christian…or not Christian…based on their system of belief. Since the birth of our nation the standard of determining right and wrong has been the Bible. Government morality is not determined by a vote of Congress, or a terrorist in a black robe, but by an eternal standard upon which a national government is formed.

America is a nation of majority Christian citizens now being ruled by an atheistic government. Caesar is now KING over the American people.

There was a day in America when EVERY child in the “public” schools began the day by reciting:

“Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day, our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For THINE is the KINGDOM, and THE POWER, and THE GLORY FOREVER. Amen.

Every child. Every school. Every day. Until the courts said we were violating the law….

I understand multi-culturalism. I understand many different gods. But by what standard is the American Government going to operate? How about we taught every American child these simple rules: Honor Thy Father and Mother, Don’t Murder, Don’t commit adultery, Don’t steal, Don’t Lie, Don’t Covet. Aren’t those values good for atheistic children as well?

What if we demanded our elected officials do the same? Did you know that 88% of Congressional members identify as Christian? HERE. Why don’t we demand that they act like it?

Can someone please explain to my why the Christian values of 88% of Americans are barred from the education of THEIR OWN children? Why does a government of, by, and for, the people teach atheism to their children?

The Founders did get one thing right. There IS a Separation between the church and the State. But we have applied the premise in reverse. The Christian God is OVER the government…not under it.

“The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.” Psalm 12:8

To paraphrase Forrest Gump…Wicked is as wicked does.

Say what you want to about the depth of President Trump’s PERSONAL Christianity…I am not here to debate that…but he has clearly opened the door and welcomed Christianity back into our government. No wonder the phonies in both parties are kicking against the pricks.

Will we accept the invitation? Will a nation of Christians demand the obedience to Christian values from our government? Will we begin again to teach Christian values to our children?

The ball is in our court. Will the CHRISTIAN CHURCH answer the bell? Stupid is as stupid does.

D.E.I. and Affirmative Action Biggest Cons In America

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 22, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

That’s what the American Dream is all about!

Where Is The Church? The Same Place They Have Always Been

By Bradlee Dean

May 21, 2025

“And the dragon was wroth with the woman and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.” – Revelation 12:17

This last week, I was going through a news reel to see what was going on in the streets of America, and no surprise to me whatsoever, I heard a popular (Gatekeeper – keeping the people’s eyes on himself as the standard and not Christ; 1 King 13:33) “people pleasing” preacher (who loves the approbation: approval and praise of men; John 12:43) asking the question to his congregants as to where the church is right now. Instantly, it made me righteously angry, and for good reason. The Church of Jesus Christ is in the same place that it always has been, and that is on the move (James 2:14-26), bearing the reproach of Christ without the camp in seeking and saving that which is lost (Luke 3:19; Hebrews 13:13).

You know the ones I’m talking about; those Christians who are suffering unjust persecutions from the ungodly, enduring scoffing, mocking, trials, tribulations, death threats, and more! These are those who are enduring hardships as good soldiers of the cross of Christ (2 Timothy 2:3).

They are those “Christians” who understand that it is not about hiding behind the four walls of the church in elevating self week after week in the face of biblically ignorant and entertained goats (Matthew 25:31-46), who do not take the time to search the Scriptures to know for themselves. The audacity of him to ask where the Church is!

Again, let me tell you where the Church is: The Church is in the same place they have always been, on the move, bearing their cross!

His lethargic and tolerant example has aided in its ostracization of real Christianity by leading his flock to do nothing more than remain impotent within the four walls, in following his lack of leadership (Psalm 78:9).

These are the same types of professors who did not reach out to add to our Christian endeavors. Instead, they ignored us. In fact, many of them rejected us for reaching out to their kids as they were dropping them off at the school gates to be illegally indoctrinated by their sworn enemies (Matthew 23:3).

Truth be told, they did not want their congregants to see what it was that they failed to do in the face of the Lord they claimed to have been serving (Numbers 13:30). They made sure to safeguard themselves from seeing anyone that was doing just that.

Friends, the best way to raise up disciples for Christ is to emulate Christ (Matthew 28:18-20).

These are the same type of professors who would talk of how radical we were in obedience to Christ (Hebrews 13:7), but now, because their backs are up against the wall, he is left only to acknowledge the obvious, and that Christianity is radical and controversial (Hebrews 1:7). What a reproach.

“For our Gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.” – 1 Thessalonians 1:5

When I first entered the ministry by God’s call, not mine (John 3:6), I thought within myself that the Church, which is the body of professed believers, was going to be there to back us up in every step that we took when reaching out to high schoolers in assemblies across the country. However, it was just the opposite. These are enemies of the cross of Christ. Read Philippians 3:18-19. They do not want to endure what genuine Christians have to go through.

As a side note, the school students in this country, from elementary to middle and high school, are the greatest demographic mission field (Psalm 2:8) in our country. Despite this, trillions of dollars are spent on missionaries from the American church to go overseas to preach a message to foreigners that they fail to preach to their children in their backyards. How hateful!

This is a lack of Christianity on this man’s part, though not just this man because it is prevalent across the country.

He is expecting the Lord that he claims to serve to do for him what it is that he is failing to do. This is why he is asking, “Where is the Church?”

Meet the New Boss, Same as the Old Boss

By Cliff Kincaid

May 21, 2025

President Trump’s new “Post-Neo-Con” foreign policy is taking shape, and it has everybody confused.

The libertarian Senator Rand Paul has done some excellent work regarding the need to imprison Anthony Fauci, but his views on foreign policy are bizarre, especially in the case of Trump. He opposes Trump’s tariffs, which are smart measures short of war designed to punish our adversaries, but the Senator calls Trump the “pro-peace president” as he bombs the Houthi rebels in Yemen and fails to get Vladimir Putin to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine.

In the article by Jack Hunter praising Rand Paul, which was distributed by the Senator himself, he ignores how Trump, without congressional authorization, bombed the Houthis into oblivion for opposing Trump’s new friends, the Saudis, and interfering with shipping in the Red Sea.

You may remember, since it was only a couple weeks ago, that Trump announced the U.S. would halt airstrikes on Yemen’s Houthi rebels, claiming they have surrendered.

Vice President J.D. Vance had pointed out that plans to bomb the Houthis would constitute “bailing Europe out again” because their shipping was more at risk from strikes from the Houthis than we were.

Trump went ahead anyway and bombed the Houthis, doing what the Europeans should have done in the first place. Most European nations refused to join a U.S.-led coalition to stop the Houthis.

The critical fact, however, is that the U.S. Congress has the power to declare war but none was declared in this case. Not even a “war powers resolution” in favor of the bombing was passed.

Article I of the U.S. Constitution and the War Powers Resolution of 1973 requires congressional action. None was given.

Yet Trump is supposed to be the “pro-peace” president and has abandoned the “neo-con” foreign policy.

The air campaign in Yemen began on March 15 without congressional authorization and Trump ended it on May 6.

All of this is fascinating because while Trump will exercise what he perceives to be his presidential powers to bomb other nations, he will not stand up to the U.S. Supreme Court when it infringes on that power. He has constantly deferred to the Court when it stops his lawful deportations of foreign terrorists.

Even more bizarre, W. James Antle, III, of The American Conservative published an article on how Trump has supposedly made a “clean break” with the foreign policy interventionists. He wrote that Trump “has recently announced a halt to the bombing of the Houthis in Yemen, the end of sanctions on Syria, the removal of a national security advisor seen as less than fully on board with his talks with Iran, and is otherwise trying to prevent another regional war in the Middle East.”

Ignored in this article is the fact that Trump started the campaign of bombing the Houthis.

The “end of sanctions on Syria” ignores the fact that the country is now run by a former al-Qaeda terrorist, Muhammad al-Jawlani, who donned a suit and tie and met with President Trump in Saudi Arabia and is personally backed by the well-known murderer, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Trump’s new friend, former al-Nusrah Front leader Muhammad al-Jawlani, was a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist” under Executive Order (E.O.) 13224. That is an executive order issued by President George W. Bush on September 23, 2001, in response to the attacks on September 11, 2001 and designed to identity terrorist threats to America.

Trump modified but never rescinded it.

In the case of Hamas, Trump’s representatives have been negotiating with these terrorists, to obtain release of American hostages held by that terrorist group.

Those who think Trump has somehow discarded the “neo-con” foreign policy point to his words, as cited by Antle: “The gleaming marvels of Riyadh and Abu Dhabi were not created by the so-called ‘nation builders,’ neo-cons, or liberal nonprofits like those who spent trillions and trillions of dollars failing to develop Baghdad, so many other cities,” Trump said.

Trump added, “Peace, prosperity, and progress ultimately came not from a radical rejection of your heritage, but rather from embracing your national traditions and embracing that same heritage that you love so dearly. You achieved a modern miracle the Arabian way.”

The “Arabian way” is the way of 9/11, carried out by the Saudis and inspired by the Saudi version of Islamic religious ideology and extremism.

As noted by Jack Hunter in his article praising Rand Paul, Trump “blasted the neo-cons” but did it “in front of a Saudi audience.” That seems mighty strange to me.

A “regional war” is already underway in the Middle East, involving Israel and Hamas, and Trump is in the middle of it, even advocating taking over Gaza as a U.S. property. And he is selling tens of billions of dollars of weapons to the Saudis, not to mention giving the green light to America high-tech firms to supply advanced microchips for AI to the Gulf Arab states.

His negotiations with Iran seem strangely like those conducted by Barack Hussein Obama.

Regarding another “regional war,” Trump is already in the middle of Russia versus Ukraine, as Vladimir Putin ignores Trump’s pleas to stop the war. Trump will have no alternative but to impose more sanctions on Russia and sell Ukraine more weapons.

If getting deeply involved in at least two regional wars is evidence of an “America First foreign policy,” then the term has completely lost its meaning. And letting oil-rich Iran have a nuclear program, when it has no need for nuclear power, may lead to yet another war.

My fear is that Trump, the businessman and deal maker, does not understand international communism or global Islam. You can’t negotiate with terrorists and you can’t deal with Communists and Muslims who want to kill you.

Meanwhile, with Trump’s approval, the Congress is poised to pass a massive spending bill that will drive America further into debt and ultimate bankruptcy.

More and More States are Being Threatened With Carbon Capture Pipelines

By Kathleen Marquardt

May 20, 2025

Is yours one? If not, don’t wait – don’t allow it

A Pennsylvania reader contacted us; he had heard rumors about a carbon capture pipeline (CCS) project that was supposed to be coming to Pennsylvania, and he wanted to know where it would be. He had asked officials but was told that there aren’t any in the works right now. My digging came up with a report called “Potential Near-Term Candidate CCS Industrial Facilities in Pennsylvania” (with estimated capturable emissions & range of capture costs).

But that information I received was vague – there were companies asking for information but not stating any interest to move forward. The best one gets is the official lines:

“While there are no commercial CCS projects operating or under development in Pennsylvania, there are some laboratory and small pilot projects underway.”

Right now, Pennsylvania should stop and be thankful that they don’t have one and immediately take action to make certain one never even gets put on the table. The Number 1 tool to protect your property rights and keep carbon capture pipelines away is to deny the use of eminent domain. Those putting in the pipelines want your property even more than they want the pipeline – it is just the camel’s nose under the tent.

1- We are just beginning to see the dangers of CCS.

2- While we have been informing people for over thirty years that there is no Manmade Global Warming problem because a) the Earth isn’t warming, and b) the whole myth of global warming/climate change was dreamed up by a faction who want to control all aspects of life on earth.

In the report on “Understanding carbon capture and storage prospects in Pennsylvania”, we are informed that, because the state ranked 4th in carbon emissions due to the Commonwealth’s robust fossil fuel-based energy generation and industrial economy, “Carbon capture and storage is critical to near-term decarbonization … .” “Carbon capture and storage is particularly important for decarbonizing hard-to-abate industries in Pennsylvania, including steel, cement, and petrochemical production. These sectors have few or no alternative decarbonization options due to inherent process emissions that occur during chemical reactions, such as the calcination of limestone to produce calcium oxide for cement or the ‘route for primary steel production.’”

But Pennsylvania has some critical hurdles to face before jumping into latest fad for reaching Net Zero – “a target of completely negating the amount of greenhouse gases produced by human activity, to be achieved by reducing emissions and implementing methods of absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Global net emissions of carbon dioxide will need to fall to net zero by 2050.”

While they potentially have enough capacity to sequester “the equivalent of all PA’s direct CO2 emissions, the study admits: However, these high-level estimates likely far exceed realistic commercial storage potential, as they do not factor in field-measured injectivity, which is the ease with which fluids like carbon dioxide can flow through geologic formations. To better understand and verify storage potential in Pennsylvania, a more detailed geologic assessment is necessary. This is accompanied by a table (Table 2) which provides a summary of “potential theoretical CO storage capacity in Pennsylvania’s saline aquifers. Note the words potential and theoretical. Those, in my opinion, are key words for this; they have mentioned that the area isn’t prime for carbon storage. The table even states: these formations are mostly characterized by very low permeability, which may make CO2 injection at commercially viable rates challenging. Existing data is limited, and additional data will be required to determine the viability of these formations for commercial-scale storage at large facilities”.

The bigger question here is “Why are states, why is anyone, still going to ways to mitigate CO2? The real science has long ago shown us that we cannot live without CO2, but that the plants and animals on this earth need it too. The answer is very simple – $$$$$$, and more importantly control – control of the entire world. AND we’ve know this from the very beginning. But no one wanted to listen – it was far more exciting to think that our world would end if we didn’t do everything we could to STOP GLOBAL WARMING. Even Al Gore knew. But money and power are the ultimate aphrodisiacs.

Numerous renown scientists spoke out against the hoax of manmade global warming. One of the first and foremost was S Fred Singer, who (to keep his resume short) was Professor emeritus of environmental science at the University of Virginia, founder and president of Science & Environmental Policy Project, and had been an early space researcher, first director of the U.S. National Weather Satellite Service. In fact hundreds of scientists spoke out against it – but the Left and its lackies, mainstream media and our federal government agencies held the power.

Another aspect is the history of Global Warming.

Even when the lies died in court, they stayed alive outside it. Remember “Exxon Knew”? It was a hot item. New York City sued Exxon Mobil, BP, and Shell oil companies for “misleading the public about their products, and their commitment to renewable energy and fighting climate change”. Supreme Court Justice Anar Patel found no proof the oil companies and the defendant American Petroleum Institute conducted “greenwashing” campaigns, including statements about clean energy and alternative energy, to boost sales of fossil fuel products in the city”. The NY Post’s article was titled “New York AG’s office totally disgraced itself in the Exxon trial”, but the Left, counting on most people’s ignorance of the outcome, has continued to use “Exxon Knew” to attack fossil fuel companies and those who supported them.

Today we are seeing a large portion of society with Eco-anxiety. Yes, really! It’s because the nonexistent man-made global warming hype has terrorized people for several decades. You don’t believe it’s been a lie? Would you believe a founder of Greenpeace? Dr. Patrick Moore admits it. He states, “One of my missions is to turn on its head that Carbon Dioxide is somehow dangerous, when, in fact, it is the most important nutrient for all life on earth and without this would be a dead planet. So, I say, not only is Carbon Dioxide good, it is essential”.

So, I will ask, WHY WOULD PENNSYLVANIA OR ANY OTHER STATE WANT TO ALLOW CARBON CAPTURE PIPELINES IN THEIR STATE?

The only reason I can dream up is kickbacks. Why would officials allow an extremely dangerous system to capture something that needs to be free-flowing in our atmosphere, put it under the ground (of which much of it was private property taken – with eminent domain if owners not willing to give it away – and where it can be near the home of the “former owner” and possibly explode!

Don’t believe me? Robert Powell sent me this video: WATCH HERE

We are looking at Pennsylvania, but Tom DeWeese pointed out to me that Washington, Pennsylvania is rather close to both Wheeling, West Virginia and Marietta, Ohio. Thus, people in both of those states should be working with their fellow sane citizens in Pennsylvania to see that no Carbon gets captured for any reason near them.

It is time to live with the truth, not lies. The truth isn’t used to steal our property. The truth will save billions of dollars, millions of eagles, whales and other endangered wildlife. And the truth will save human lives! How? By exposing the lies that cow farts and burps destroy Carbon Dioxide. We don’t need to eat bugs. By stopping the geoengineering that is destroying our atmosphere, our food crops, our water, and us. And think of all the money not being spent on poisonous chemicals that can be used to rebuild our treasury. And all the people who won’t have to have medical care for the poisons in their bodies. And all the money NOT spent on asinine Carbon Capture Pipelines, Solar and Wind farms.

Let’s live our lives without lies that tear us apart because one faction believes the lies and wants to trash Teslas and ban meat. I, for one, can’t imagine living without bacon and steak. I can’t afford a Tesla but would love to have my old Sunbeam Tiger to enjoy on the Tail of the Dragon.

If we could succeed in removing this huge lie, everyone’s life would improve, and millions of people could regain their mental health instead of believing the sky will fall if we breath Oxygen.

Comey: A Follow-Up

By Kat Stansell

May 20, 2025

James Comey was in the UAE when he stacked the shells to read “86 47”.

What was he doing there? Vacationing?? Seems like a stretch, but let’s look. There are lots of other beaches around the world…and to be there just when our President is?? Yeah…

We can never forget that James Comey has deep ties to the Clinton Network; therefore, the Obama network. Therefore the Middle East. Is this all a coincidence?

Comey was nominated by Obama in his second term, which was the four years when Obama moved to put much of his anti-Americanism into play. He didn’t care; he didn’t have to make journalists tinkle down their leg at the sight of “America’s first black President”. Obama had our nation where he wanted them; eating out of his Muslim hand. And the country was hardly aware.

There is a sect of the Afghani Taliban, Haqqani, which calls for some thought here.

After Obama began his second term, the WaPost wrote, “Senior officials have repeatedly called the Haqqani network the most significant threat to the U.S. goal of exiting a relatively peaceful Afghanistan by the end of 2014 and have accused Pakistan of direct support for its leadership. The network has conducted a series of lethal, high-profile attacks against U.S. targets.”

Obama reluctantly designated them a terrorist organization in 2012; as I read it, it was mostly to keep critics at bay. Responsible for some of the deadliest attacks in the 20+ year long Afghani War, including suicide bombings an much more. They are part of the anti-India Jaish-i-Mohammed organization.

Never forget, Hillary Clinton was Obama’s Secretary of State. It was up to her to determine whether or not Haqqani met the criteria for a “terrorist organization.’ I can just hear the closed door strategy sessions between Hilly and Barry, as if they were recorded for posterity. . . .

The Haqqani Network has been active, since its beginnings, in the efforts to make Shariah the world’s religion. This is also Obama’s goal. But, the world needed to be “reassured”, I suppose. Hence the designation.

With the recent increase of tensions in the Middle East, including the Indian/Pakistani attacks, and Donald Trump’s incredible abilities to build on commonalities between people, it is entirely possible that the Haqqani is active. They may well be angry at Trump’s success in bringing the world together. To them, – and other supporters of Sharia – it would be an attack on their world-wide goals.

Never forget, James Comey is an Obama sycophant. In 2016, after Trump’s election, Comey said he was almost brought to tears, when Obama said, I want you to know that nothing — nothing — has happened in the last year to change my view,” I.e., the appearance of Trump at 1600 changes nothing. And, for “Obama & Co.” (Clinton, et. al.) nothing has. Four years of Trump 45 were diluted with constant impeachment activity; millions of dollars of our monies were wasted.

Then, old Joe was hoisted up the flag pole to dangle in our faces for a third Obama term.

It is quite feasible that James Comey is still active behind the scenes.

Nothing posted here is absolute proof of Comey’s possibly criminal 86/47 thoughts, but my Kat nose smells something foul. Would that it were just spring allergies, but we need to pursue the line of possibilities. The life of our Commander in Chief is far too important to disregard anything at this point.

You’re known by the friends you keep, mama always said. This is the wisdom of older generations, which the Marxists have been working furiously to remove. The older I get, the smarter my long-deceased parents have become.

Why the Seventeenth Amendment MUST Be Abolished

Authored by Devvy Kidd not AI

May 20, 2025

James Madison, known as the Father of the Constitution wrote: “The Senate will be elected absolutely and exclusively by the State legislatures.” John Jay, co-author of The Federalist Papers is quoted: “Jay then informed Governor Clinton that, unlike the Senate, where the two-thirds rule was in force for treaties and impeachment, the lower house had nothing to do with treaties; it represented the people whereas the senate represented the states – for the Federalists always a significant distinction.”

The U.S. House of Representatives was to be the legislative body for the people. Each district within the states of the Union would elect an individual to Congress (Art. I, Sec. II) who would represent them under Art. 1, Sec. 8 of the U.S. Constitution. The framers were adamant that the states remain sovereign entities and have equal representation in Congress. Thus, the U.S. Senate would be comprised of two senators from each state. (Art. I, Sec. III)

Those senators would be chosen by their state legislature to go to Washington, DC to represent the interests of the state, not the people. If they didn’t, the state could recall them and choose a replacement. The Senate confirms federal judges and supreme court justices. The Senate must advise and consent to ratification of treaties that have been negotiated and agreed to by the President — Art. II, Section II, U.S. Constitution.

The framers of the Constitution wisely understood the absolute necessity of ensuring the people would have the right to vote for our representative in Congress, and at the same time because they all jealously guarded freedom and liberty, the states must also have equal representation. We the people would have the ability to remove – via the ballot box – miscreants and scoundrels while the state legislatures could recall their U.S. Senators who acted against the best interests of their state. The absolute right of the states to equal representation was wiped out when the Seventeenth Amendment was declared ratified on April 8, 1913. It was not.

From my January 16, 2012 column: 36 States Did Not Ratify 17th Amendment – What Will States Do?

“I once read a comment below a news item regarding former senate candidate, Joe Miller, [R-AK] after he came out supporting a repeal of the Seventeenth Amendment. The useful fool who submitted the comment said old Joe wouldn’t have to run for office and worry about getting beat. Miller’s opponent and alleged eventual winner, RINO Lisa Murkowski, opened the pie hole in her face: “…was the first to criticize Miller’s comments, issuing a news release entitled “Joe Miller reaching new extremes every day.”

“We have seen Joe Miller take some extraordinary positions in this campaign, but I never imagined he would support disenfranchising himself and every other Alaskan,” Murkowski said in a statement. “Joe is no longer content with simply taking away federal support for Alaskan families, now he wants to take away their right to select our United States senators.” (End of quote)

“Yeah, those who gave their lives and blood to create this republic reached “new extremes” when they voted to create two separate bodies for the U.S. Congress, one for the people and one for the states.

“Think Murkowski wants to give up her power as a U.S. Senator? When pig’s fly. That foolish hen votes for legislation that affects my life and I can’t vote her out of office. Another dangerous female, Olympia Snowe, RINO from Maine, voted for the unconstitutional Obamacare declaring her constituents wanted it! Well, I’m not her constituent and I sure as hell don’t want it. The vile, Charles Schumer, [D-NY] would like to see the Second Amendment wiped off the books and every time he votes for a bill, I have no way to send his “progressive” backside packing.”

[Note: Snowe did not run for reelection so that RINO was finally gone. Replaced by ‘Independent’ Angus King. Pro-killing the unborn, fund Planned Parenthood, supports the myth called Same Sex Marriage, legalize “recreational pot”, believes America is a democracy, climate change hoax advocate, opposed more border security; long list On the Issues is here.]

RINO Murkowski, has been in office under a law that doesn’t exist for 27+ years. The damage done by U.S. Senators since the non-ratified Seventeenth Amendment is enormous. Angus King votes, allegedly for the people of Maine but bills he votes for affect me and I can’t vote him out.

Soros and McCain: The unholy alliance hidden in plain sight, May 16, 2025: “What started as a quiet alliance between George Soros and John McCain has now become a visible partnership between their heirs, Alex and Cindy.”

Apparently, the very wealthy Cindy McCain hates Donald Trump. Went to work for career criminal and liar, Joe Biden; supported him in the 2020 stolen election. Biden repaid such loyalty as Cindy was confirmed by the U.S. Senate to the rancid, corrupt UN as the Food and Agriculture Ambassador.

I sued the State of Texas in 2014 to keep senate candidates off the ballot. It would take another whole column to give you all what happened in court, obscene, but the bottom line is the judge (brought out of retirement to hear my case and one civil injury quickie appearance) in a huge, empty court room said no one was interested because it happened so long ago; fraud was okay with da judge. I appealed to the appellate court in Austin and those cowards issued their blather and that was that. No sense in appealing to the Texas Supreme Court for obvious reasons. The best we can hope for is, like prohibition, get a constitutional amendment passed to abolish the Seventeenth Amendment.

Oct. 12, 2014 Lawsuit filed: Seventeenth Amendment not ratified

The Constitution of the United States – Article V: “The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.” How about states out of session during that entire coup?

A Con-Con (as in con job) is NOT necessary to get a constitutional amendment passed by the states. An Article V Convention would be the final nail in our coffin. National Archives: Constitutional Amendment Process: “The Constitution provides that an amendment may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds majority vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of the State legislatures. None of the 27 amendments to the Constitution have been proposed by constitutional convention.”

The damage done to our republic after the Seventeenth Amendment was declared ratified could easily be a 500-page book. I did put up a ‘help’ page for state legislators so they could get a fresh perspective regarding that amendment. The Seventeenth Amendment: A Cancer on our Constitutional Republic last updated in 2010 so yes, I’ve been on this for decades. Of course, one of the big problems is the ubiquitous “our democracy” propaganda. [1]

Practically from the first day Trump took office, junkyard dogs behind the scenes were already plotting to get rid of him. Trump started nominating judges at the federal level which have to be confirmed by the Senate as well as the Supreme Court. Then old Joe who was nothing but an empty suit with obvious advanced dementia (I think first ages of Altzheimer’s) in 2020[2] took his turn and here we are today.

Lawsuits against Trump right now are like Niagara Falls – more than 100. And who’s hearing the cases? Federal judges that have shown exactly how partisan they are and disgracing their profession. Just the same as happened during Trump’s first term. One can hardly keep up with all of them – even me; I spend a lot of time reading and researching. A lot.

As what happened with my case in the Texas “legal” system, there will never be an acknowledgement the Seventeenth Amendment was short two states and therefore, was not legally ratified. However, it will be up to We the People AND our state legislatures who need to grow a spine to get a constitutional amendment passed into law. Need only be two sentences. Henceforth, the Seventeenth Amendment is hereby abolished effective Dec. 31 of whatever year. State legislatures can decide if the “incumbent” senator should be chosen to continue in DC.

Think NAFTA would have passed had there been no Seventeenth Amendment? Not a chance and the same goes for GATT. Rotten damn treaties that destroyed our most important job sectors: manufacturing, industrial and agriculture. NAFTA’s replacement is such poison we have to get out of it[3][4]. Whoever was advising Trump on the “USMCA “Trade Agreement” should be shown the door and don’t come back.

The effort to abolish the Seventeenth Amendment is bigger than people know and why don’t they know? The prostitute media (print, Internet, boob tube, cable, radio talk shows) make sure – just like they deliberately lied about Biden’s mental absence – the subject never comes up.

Our Founding Fathers made it difficult to amend the Constitution but it’s been done 27 times. Congress may submit a proposed constitutional amendment to the states, if the proposed amendment language is approved by a two-thirds vote of both houses.

Of course, this presents a problem as a whole lot of current senators fear their state legislature would not choose, he/she, if the Seventeenth Amendment was abolished and the states regained their power and sovereignty. I have NO doubt had the 17^th Amendment not been in effect at the time, we would have seen different judges and Supreme Court Justices over time and we sure as hell would not be seeing this AVALALANCHE OF LAWFARE/LAWSUITS AGAINST TRUMP RIGHT NOW.

I have NO doubt John McCain would have been recalled by the State of AZ and numerous others had the fraudulent Seventeenth Amendment not been on the books.

Could such an amendment to abolish the Seventeenth Amendment ever pass? Perhaps the American people who are sick and tired and fed up with what they’re seeing – again – will DEMAND CON-gress introduce the amendment so Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, can get it distributed to the 50 states.

How about state reps and senators? Think state reps and senators don’t know U.S. reps and senators? Of course they do. The Republican Party holds state conventions and getting the Seventeenth Amendment abolished should be right at the top of the list of priorities: Have the state legislature put together a demand CON-gress introduce an amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Aren’t states tired of being a door mat, basically castrated by the U.S. Senate on so many critical issues?

Sad to say but here in Texas our legislature which only meets every other odd year for 140 days has pretty much been ignoring the top priorities of the GOP state conventions. Primarily due to rotten, corrupt RINO’s as Speaker of the House who put Democrats as head of committees. Ultimately, it’s going to fall to We the People in every state to demand this gets done or we will continue down the road to Hell despite Trump’s best efforts. And BTW: Why aren’t the big names on talk radio (Sean Hannity, Clay & Buck and others) talking about this? Forget filling air time about the 2026 mid-terms all the time or complaining about the judges. There is a solution and that is abolishing the Seventeenth Amendment.

Yes, a state could choose a rotten, corrupt politician but it’s much easier to primary out those in the legislature who sent another Marxist, RINO or member of the Democrat/Communist Party USA to the U.S. Senate. That would send a powerful message to incumbents.

My daily email in-take is overwhelming. Sincere Americans send me links to videos “you must watch” or TikTok clips that are pretty much worthless (altho’ I love the doggie ones.); bear with me on this. Too many videos give no time, date, context, just like this one: Pam Bondi Exposes Judge Boasberg’s Secret Deal—The Room Goes Silent Instantly!

The person reading a script gives no facts, no date and how would he know exactly what went on behind closed doors or even in the court room? Nothing to enable one to confirm the veracity of this tale told. Interesting but in the end, it was a waste of 32 minutes of my time, but thousands of people watched it, believe every word without any identifiers.

Let me give you a quick example as a warning. Devvy – gotta watch this video! Homeless Veteran On Trial Until Judge Heard His Name And Stood Up In Silence. I go to the link, watched about five minutes. Stop; someone reading a script. Read the comment section from caring Americans about this “former Marine, highly decorated” and so forth. Then I read the text below the video, “This is one of those touching stories that remind us of what truly matters…See more. I did and it says: DISCLAIMER: This is a work of fiction created for entertainment purposes only.

So, you see, it’s a fake made up story but to watch even a few minutes it looks and sounds so real. The big print giveth, the small print taketh away. Those who watched it with caring compassion have no idea unless they did what I did and read the See More. They were suckered into watching a fake story and no doubt passed the link along to others.

There are excellent videos and documentaries out there; I don’t have a list of every single one but do the best I can in judging what is more Q nonsense and which are important for Americans to watch. After over three decades, I can usually spot the junk within a few minutes. The two below are absolutely worth your time so I hope you will watch them and share everywhere.

“Read My Lips” How to Snooker Oregonians in Accepting More Taxes

By Diane Linthicum

May 19, 2025

“Our lives consist solely of trade-offs,” is a truism that is not entirely obvious. But most decisions are made from multiple options and choices. Some options will be better than others, some get cataloged as, “no choice at all,” and still others are fairly easy choices.

“It is never a good plan to increase taxes” is a political truism that should be obvious.

This is why the famous phrase, “Read my lips: no new taxes,” is so apropo. George H. W. Bush, rightfully spoke this truth as a pledge to American people that he would not allow them to be taxed any further. At the time this was an important stance for the leading presidential candidate at the 1988 Republican National Convention to make.

Raising taxes is a losing issue. Candidate Bush knew it; his speechwriter knew it; the American people knew it; and, Democrat Presidential nominee Bill Clinton knew it. Thus, Clinton successfully turned this truism into victory in the 1992 Presidential election.

The political elites imagine, “this is what the people wanted!” Yet, there are very few people who are in favor of having their taxes raised. They can only be convinced to vote for tax increasing bonds and ballot measures through incessant ad campaigns and political strategies that push the narrative that “the sky is falling or will fall” if we don’t fund this or that proposal. Think of the mindless global warming scare tactics.

Just look at the taxes being dreamed up by the Democrat party who control both chambers of the Oregon legislature. As representatives, they think of themselves as those who know best. Yet they know nothing about your personal or business finances, let alone anything about your family’s needs.

These politicians are extremely proud that Oregon does not have a sales tax. Unbeknownst to the public, this subtle virtue keeps the taxing authority within the legislature. Meaning, the Oregon’s legislature gets to pick and choose what to tax and at what rates. For example, there are sales taxes on all sorts of things, like, cars (internal-combustion or electric vehicle), tires, bicycles, trees, harvest activities, vape products, tobacco, beer, wine, marijuana along with others.

Being dyed-in-the-wool statists who apparently look forward to the time when state control will destroy our voluntary choices, they are disillusioned with conservative prudence. They also dislike our skepticism of big-government solutions so they continually work to drain economic resources from the private sector while transferring those resources to the public sector through their onerously contrived tax policies.

This overall assault on our private wherewithal is partly why local economies suffer the same fate as our state’s economy. Both state and local governments spend beyond their means so that their respective revenue problems arise from too much government, not too little.

Public sector and public service costs keep rising because of public employee union wage increases and the increasing costs for supplying training, certification, equipment and the financial burdens of the bureaucracy. These costs keep increasing because of raises, COLAs, and PERS benefits along with forced minimum wage increases in the private sector. In turn, this leads to product shortages, cost boondoggles, rent-seekers and everyone trying to pick everyone else’s pocket, via legislative intervention.

This is partly why over 4,000 bills were introduced in this 2025 legislative session. Many of these bills were trying to protect some segment of society from being ravaged by regulatory burdens while others were just rackets or economic carve-outs which are being forced into law by Oregon’s Democrat majority.

This phenomenon is part of George Orwell’s eerie genius in his book, 1984. In this cautionary tale he clearly expresses the uncanny notion that once the passion for power takes hold it will animate the coming bureaucracy.

Orwell recognized that a new aristocracy would be sculpted from the bureaucrats, sociologists, teachers, and regulators in the salaried middle class and the upper grades of the working class. His novel paints a bleak future arising out of the ideology brought together by the barren worlds of centralized government and their regulated industry classes.

The new bureaucrats were supposed to be less avaricious, less tempted by luxury, less hungry for raw power, and, above all, more conscious of what they were doing. Their efforts were supposed to be balanced by their moral superiority and thus they could lawfully become more intent on crushing opposition. Think lawfare.

In Soviet Russia this job was delegated to a bureaucrat who was known as a commissar. The commissar was not only a regulatory official but was also responsible for political education and organizational adherence. This job title recognized that the administration of laws in modern states carries with it enormous political power.

In the US, we have long expected better. We expect bureaucrats to protect us from all of life’s contingencies. Yet, simultaneously, we know this is something they can’t possibly do, but we fall for the false promises. Thus, we leave ourselves defenseless against our so-called “protectors”.

The time has come to, just say, “NO!”

What can you do?

First, don’t tax yourself into poverty because you think it might help. It doesn’t. Frugality is your friend.

Second, don’t approve local tax levies or new taxing districts out of fear that “the sky is falling” or someone might call you a cheapskate.

We exercise frugality in our homes and businesses and we must demand nothing less of our local, state and federal government.

Painting Our American Civilization Into A Corner

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 19, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

LET US CONNECT THE DOTS

What am I getting at?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

THE GREATER OUR NUMBERS; THE GREATER OUR CONSEQUENCES

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

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

Arrest the Judges and Fire the Lawyers

By Cliff Kincaid

May 19, 2025

A far-left New York publication called “The Indypendent” is helping organize resistance to the Trump Administration, which it calls the “Trumptatorship.” Its May issue calls Trump a bully and is headlined, “Fight The Bully.” Yet, this “bully” is being pushed around by the U.S. Supreme Court, and all that this “bully” can do is rant and rave.

After the Supreme Court issued another 7-2 ruling against his deportations, he said, “The Supreme Court has just ruled that the worst murderers, drug dealers, gang members, and even those who are mentally insane, who came into our Country illegally, are not allowed to be forced out without going through a long, protracted, and expensive Legal Process.”

“The result of this decision will let more CRIMINALS pour into our Country, doing great harm to our cherished American public,” Trump continued. “It will also encourage other criminals to illegally enter our Country, wreaking havoc and bedlam wherever they go. The Supreme Court of the United States is not allowing me to do what I was elected to do.”

Once again, the Supreme Court has made a mockery of our constitutional republic. It has intervened in a matter beyond its jurisdiction. But Trump is listening to his lawyers and deferring to the courts.

The only “dictatorship” we should fear is of a judicial variety. Judges are not given the power to conduct foreign policy.

Speaking of foreign terrorists on American soil, consider the news release from the Department of Justice about a “Michigan Man” who was arrested and charged with “attempting to attack” an American military base on American soil on behalf of ISIS.

As Trump was touring the Middle East and making deals with the Arabs, a former member of the Michigan Army National Guard was arrested “after he attempted to carry out a plan to conduct a mass-shooting at a U.S. military base in Warren, Michigan, on behalf of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), a foreign terrorist organization.”

His name is Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said and is a 19-year-old U.S. citizen who made a pledge of loyalty to the new ISIS head, the “Chalifa” of ISIS (Abu Hafs Al-Hashimy Al-Qurayshi).

Trump says he defeated ISIS during his first term. But the terrorists keep popping up, even in America. Perhaps there is something in the Middle East that inspires them.

In fact, ISIS is still active in the Middle East and is a Sunni Muslim group, operating with the same Islamic ideology that motivates the Arab Gulf states as well as al-Qaeda.

On October 27, 2019, Trump had announced the death of ISIS Leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, saying, “He died after running into a dead-end tunnel, whimpering and crying and screaming all the way.” Trump called al-Baghdadi “a sick and depraved man, and now he’s gone. Baghdadi was vicious and violent, and he died in a vicious and violent way, as a coward, running and crying.”

Saudi Arabia claims it has been a leading partner in the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS. But Wahhabism, the strict form of Islam originating in Saudi Araba, inspires ISIS.

As Trump was addressing the Saudi-US Investment Forum at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on May 13, that ISIS terrorist in Michigan was being arrested for planning “a mass-shooting at the U.S. Army’s Tank-Automotive & Armaments Command (TACOM) facility at the Detroit Arsenal in Warren, Michigan.”

How many more like him are in America, either as citizens or illegal aliens?

Meanwhile, back in Saudi Arabia, Trump recognized a new terrorist regime in Syria and met with Syria’s new president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, described as “a former Jihadist” once hunted by the U.S. with a $10 million bounty on his head for his involvement with al-Qaeda.

Look at the wanted poster for this Jihadist and then compare it with his photo during the meeting with Trump. He trimmed his beard and put on a suit and tie.

Then look at the president’s visit to Qatar, and the extravagant state dinner the Arab oil sheiks held for him, attended by “some of his most glamorous aides and a slew of TV stars.” There is glamour in black gold.

The president is getting some very bad advice in foreign policy matters, just as he has been led astray regarding the Supreme Court’s veto power over his deportations.

You know there’s something wrong when the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) journal Foreign Affairs runs an article praising Trump’s dealings with the Arab states.

You also know there’s something wrong when Deep State mouthpiece and CFR member David Ignatius writes in the Washington Post that Trump’s Middle East diplomacy “has yielded some surprising gains.”

Remember it was Ignatius who used top-secret surveillance intercepts of communications to derail the nomination of Michael T. Flynn, a former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), as Trump’s national security advisor in his first term. Flynn had opposed the Obama policy, carried out by John Brennan’s CIA, of supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamic terrorists in the Middle East.

It now looks like the United States is back in the “dirty wars” business in the Middle East. Although the oil dollars and their investment in the U.S. look attractive in the headlines, nothing good can come from deeper U.S. involvement in this dangerous region of the world, where Sunni and Shiite Muslims battle for world domination and plan the destruction of Israel and America.

To make matters worse, Trump thinks he can make a deal with the Ayatollahs of Iran.

Qatar, the second leg of Trump’s trip, has a notorious history, having hosted the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) and other terrorist groups in the region. It even harbored its spiritual leader, Yusuf al-Qaradhawi. Qatar also hosted and financed 9/11 mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, along with other terrorists.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who is currently in U.S. custody in Guantanamo Bay for acts of terrorism, lived and worked in Qatar but was allowed to leave for Pakistan as U.S. authorities were trying to apprehend him, according to the report of the 9/11 commission. He went to Pakistan and cut journalist Daniel Pearl’s head off. Pearl was kidnapped while investigating the al-Qaeda networks in the Middle East.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed proudly confessed to a U.S. military tribunal that he decapitated with “my blessed right hand the head of the American Jew, Daniel Pearl.”

These are dictatorships in the Middle East Trump is dealing with.

American Senators who included Marco Rubio, now Trump’s Secretary of State, had introduced a resolution holding Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), personally responsible for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, a Saudi dissident who was dismembered after he entered the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey.

President Joe Biden had promised to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for Jamal Khashoggi’s murder. Instead, he gave MBS immunity. Now he is Trump’s friend and his country, the source of most of the 9/11 terrorists, has benefitted from a massive sale of modern weapons.

“Underscoring our commitment to strengthening our defense and security partnership, the United States and Saudi Arabia signed the largest defense sales agreement in history — nearly $142 billion, providing Saudi Arabia with state-of-the-art warfighting equipment and services from over a dozen U.S. defense firms,” says the White House.

The White House added, “Our defense relationship with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is stronger than ever under President Trump’s leadership, and the package signed today, the largest defense cooperation deal in U.S. history, is a clear demonstration of our commitment to strengthening our partnership.”

We have a “bully” president who obeys the orders of the Supreme Court and practices “the art of the deal” with those regimes whose ideology motivates the Islamic terrorists.

Meanwhile, his so-called “Big, Beautiful” bill in Congress is facing conservative opposition in the House and Senate because it fails to curb federal spending and reduce the debt. That has already led to a decline in America’s credit rating.

What is more, the highly respected analyst Gordon Chang says Trump’s dramatic reduction of tariffs on China represents a “win” for the communist giant. That win for China was engineered by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, a former financial manager for the George Soros hedge fund.

Trump’s America First agenda is being smothered by Black Robes, Red Ink, and Red China. The “bully” must break out of his shell.

Hope Provided Through Unusual Means

By Rolaant McKenzie

May 18, 2025

Sometimes good news can be presented in an unusual way that reaches the hearts and minds of people, causing them to pause, consider, and receive a hope that transforms their lives and the lives of many others.

Amistad is a 1997 American historical drama film, a true story based on the events that took place in 1839 aboard the Spanish slave ship La Amistad and their aftermath. Mende tribesmen, who were abducted from Sierra Leone and being transported off the coast of Cuba to a port for sale, managed to break free of their shackles and gain control of the ship. The ship was later captured off the coast of Long Island, New York, by a U.S. Revenue-Marine vessel, and the Africans were held in custody for trial. They were charged with mutiny because some of their captors were killed as they took over the ship. It would also be determined in court to whom they would belong as property.

In a poignant scene, as the Africans waited in jail for the resumption of their trial, one of them named Yamba discovered a Bible and started looking through it with a fellow inmate, Cinqué (Sengbe Pieh (c. 1814 – c. 1879)), who led the uprising on the ship. They cannot speak or read English, but the pictures of New Testament events made quite an impression on them.

Yamba shows Cinqué a picture of Jesus in a manger and says that when He was born, everything changed. Cinqué noticed the glow around Jesus’ head as he saw a picture of Him riding into Jerusalem on a donkey. Yamba said that everywhere He goes, He is followed by the sun. He goes on to show pictures of Jesus healing people, protecting a woman from being stoned, being given children to bless, and even walking across the sea.

Then Yamba pointed out a dark turn of events when he showed a picture of Jesus captured, His hands tied, accused of a crime, and standing beside Pontius Pilate before a mob howling for His death. He noted that whatever He did must have been serious enough to kill Him for it. Then Yamba showed Cinqué how they killed Him by hanging Him on a cross.

But Yamba said that this was not the end. He showed Jesus’ body being taken down from the cross, taken into a cave, and wrapped in a cloth as the Mende people do. He told Cinqué that they thought He was dead, but He appeared before His people again and spoke to them. Then Yamba showed a picture of Jesus rising to the sky. The last picture he showed Cinqué was Jesus in the glory of heaven surrounded by the angels, and he said that this is where the soul goes when you die on earth. Clearly moved by the scene and with hope in his eyes, he quietly added that it did not look so bad.

In 1841, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a federal district court ruling that Cinqué, Yamba, and the rest of the captive Africans acted properly as free men to escape their kidnapping and illegal confinement, including the use of force. They were ordered to be set free. Christian abolitionists arranged for temporary housing until funds could be raised to return them home. The following year, along with some Christian missionaries, they set sail for Sierra Leone.

More than 150 years later, Cinqué’s great-great-grandson, Samuel Pieh, was a Mende language coach for the film. He said that Cinqué became a key figure in Sierra Leone who helped spread Christianity in the country.

Just before Jesus ascended to heaven, He told His disciples to wait in Jerusalem for the gift of the Holy Spirit, who would grant them the power to be His witnesses in Jerusalem and to the farthest reaches of the earth (Acts 1:1-8). On the Day of Pentecost, when they were gathered together, the Holy Spirit came upon them in a dramatic way. Through a mighty rushing wind and tongues of fire that rested on each of them, they started speaking in other languages they did not know. Devout Jews from every nation coming to Jerusalem to celebrate this feast of thanksgiving for the firstfruits of the harvest gathered together and heard them in their own language testifying to the mighty works of God.

Peter took this moment to address the crowd, telling them about the Lord Jesus, the Messiah whom many of them previously rejected and condemned to death on a cross. Convicted in their hearts at his message, they asked him what they should do. Peter gave them a message of hope. He urged them to repent and receive the mercy, forgiveness, peace with God, and indwelling Holy Spirit that comes only through faith in Jesus. As a result, three thousand who heard the gospel message in their own tongue believed and were baptized, and the Church of Jesus Christ was born (Acts 2:1-41).

A high court official for the queen of Ethiopia, a convert to Judaism, was returning home on his chariot from worshipping in Jerusalem. He was reading aloud God’s word from a scroll of the prophet Isaiah but was not understanding what it meant (Isaiah 53:7-8). Philip, who had been preaching the gospel in Samaria, was directed by God to go through a desert road to Gaza to meet him and talk to him about Jesus, the fulfillment of what the Ethiopian official was reading. This divine appointment resulted in him believing in Jesus and being baptized and proclaiming His message of hope, forgiveness, and peace with God through Him in Ethiopia (Acts 8:25-40).

God’s word assures us that whoever calls on the name of the Lord Jesus will be saved, and He often uses preachers of the gospel to proclaim this message (Romans 10:12-17). But God also uses unusual means to bring people to faith in Jesus.

God captured the attention of Jews of many nations and languages by arranging for them to hear the gospel in their own native tongue on the Day of Pentecost, causing thousands to believe in Jesus. In a divinely appointed meeting, Philip was used by God to help an Ethiopian government official seeking to understand God’s word come to faith in Jesus. God moved someone to leave a Bible in the jail where Cinqué and Yamba were being held, and though they could not read the words, they learned about Jesus through the illustrations and found hope in Him. In my case, someone I never met shared the gospel message with me over the Internet, and God used that divine encounter to forever transform my life by bringing repentance, forgiveness, hope, and salvation through faith in Jesus Christ alone.

“Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (2 Corinthians 5:18-21)

If you have received this message of hope, the gospel, do not keep it to yourself. Remember the love and grace the Lord bestowed on you when He sent people and circumstances into your life to share it. For example, if you eat at a restaurant or have repairs done in your home, be gracious and give a good tip with a gospel tract to the server or repairman. You may be the unusual means through whom hope and salvation in Jesus Christ comes to that person and beyond.

Nothing In the World Like A Mother’s Love

By Rob Pue

May 18, 2025

On Mother’s Day, I received an email from one of our readers in Kansas. She’s a mother, now in her 80s, and went to church on Mother’s Day hoping for some encouragement. But the pastor at her church never mentioned mothers. Instead, the sermon was all about how women should always remain submissive and obedient to men — and never speak in church.

What a totally inappropriate, rude and even cruel thing to do to the precious Moms who were there on Mother’s Day! I remember, not so long ago, when churches we attended would take this once-a-year opportunity to honor all the mothers. Mothers were encouraged to stand and be recognized and prayed for, and some churches even had a red rose for every Mom in attendance. Mothers were honored and blessed.

Godly Motherhood and Fatherhood are the most important jobs we have in this life, bearing and raising children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. Godly parents — one man and one woman, united in Holy Matrimony for life — are the absolute foundation of the natural family, the way God intended it to be; despite however our modern culture denigrates parenthood.

Have you noticed, as you go about your daily business, how few women you see today that are pregnant? Have you noticed how few Moms there are with babies? Where have all the Mothers gone? And as I follow the local daily news, I see obituaries outpacing the birth notices by a margin of at least ten to one. We’ve become such a self-centered society, that fewer and fewer couples are having children today. It’s so sad that parenthood is no longer valued, and if a woman’s a stay-at-home Mom, she’s looked down upon and shunned, as if her time would be much better spent, and much more productive and fulfilling if she worked at some sort of corporate job, while her children were raised by strangers, paid to do so.

I also find it ridiculous when I see bumper stickers, T Shirts and social media posts glorifying women as “Dog Moms” or “Cat Moms.” Rather than become a real mother to a precious child, made in the image of God, these women prefer to have pets, and consider them their “children.” This is not motherhood.

And because of rampant sexual sin, many babies that “could have been” will never be. According to the Guttmacher Institute, over a million babies were murdered in the womb in this country last year alone — despite the Supreme Court overturning Roe v Wade in June of 2022. And it’s also sad to see that those babies who are allowed to live are now being born to unwed parents. These children will likely never know the love and security of an intact family, having both a Mom and Dad together in the household to raise them.

And have you ever witnessed all the angry women yelling — and even swearing — at their children in public? These are not Mothers. They may have given birth, but their self-centered behavior doesn’t match with how Godly Mothers are to train up their children.

So, I thank God for Godly mothers, and yes, they should be honored, today more than ever. Because today, we have demoniacs working to erase even the word “Mother” from our vocabulary and replace it with “birthing person,” so as not to hurt the feelings of insane men who believe they can be mothers.

In February of 2025, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers introduced a budget bill that calls mothers an “inseminated person,” and switches both “mother” and “father” to “parent who gave birth.”

State Representative Amanda Nedweski commented on this. She said, “As a proud mother of two, it is absolutely insulting that the Governor, in his 2025-27 budget bill, would reduce me and millions of other mothers across Wisconsin to ‘inseminated persons.’ It is not only deeply offensive, but it is an outright attack on the very essence of motherhood,” Nedweski wrote in a press release. “It is unconscionable that the Governor has the audacity to take the most beautiful, life-giving act a woman can perform — bringing children into this world — and turn it into nothing more than gender-neutral, virtue-signaling jargon to appease his far-left base.” Well said, indeed. But this is where our culture is today… we’ve become a nation that is Godless, and therefore, naturally clueless. A nation of imbeciles.

2 Timothy 3: “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce-breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.”

Isn’t that our nation and world today? We boast of our amazing intelligence, diversity, equity and inclusion. We boast of our ability to create our own gods in the form of Artificial Intelligence, but we don’t have the brains God gave a chicken. Ever learning, but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Why? Because we’re a Godless nation, given over to depraved minds.

In the beginning, God created us male and female. Males don’t do very well without the help of a female, and so He created Eve just for him. In Hebrew, her name was Chavvah, which literally means “life giver.” And He commanded them to be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. The Bible talks a lot about parenting, and values motherhood, especially, very highly.

In Matthew 23, Jesus lamented over His chosen people, saying, “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it! How often would I have gathered your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing!” Even mother birds protect, nurture and care for their babies under their wings, such is the innate nature of true motherhood.

Scripture also tells us about Sarah, who gave birth to Isaac, at the age of 90. We read about the mother of Moses, who, at the risk of her own life, hid her son from the Egyptians when Pharaoh ordered that all male Hebrew children were to be killed at birth. And how Mary, the mother of Jesus, must have loved Him so… and how He loved her. Thirty three years later, as He hung on the cross, dying, He was careful to make sure that his mother would be taken care of, putting John in charge of her care.

Yes, God values and honors mothers. In Exodus 20, we’re given the Ten Commandments, and number 5 of those commandments is “Honor your father and your mother…” Here are a few more Scripture verses about mothers:

Isaiah 49:15, “Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb?” Isaiah 66:13, “As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you.” Psalm 113:9, “He gives the barren woman a home, making her the joyous mother of children. Praise the Lord!” Psalm 127:3, “Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward.” Proverbs 1:8, “…forsake not your mother’s teaching.” Proverbs 23:25, “Let your father and mother be glad; let her who bore you rejoice.” Proverbs 29:15, “…a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.” John 16:21, “When a woman is giving birth, she has sorrow because her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world.”

True Godly mothers exemplify the type of woman we read about in Proverbs 31. Here are some of her qualities: “…She is far more precious than jewels. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he will not lack anything good.” “She selects wool and flax and works with willing hands. She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from far away. She rises while it is still night and provides food for her household.” “She extends her hands to the spinning staff, and her hands hold the spindle. Her hands reach out to the poor, and she extends her hands to the needy. She is not afraid for her household when it snows, for all in her household are doubly clothed. She makes her own bed coverings…” “She opens her mouth with wisdom and loving instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the activities of her household and is never idle. Her sons rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her…”

Mother’s Day was established in the United States as the second Sunday of May, starting in 1914. It was the culmination of work done by Godly mothers who served, did charitable deeds and worked to unite a divided nation following the civil war. Anna Jarvis, hoping to honor the memory of her own mother, as well as all mothers, envisioned the day as an intimate occasion for expressing love and gratitude toward all mothers through handwritten letters and personal gestures. Interestingly, Father’s Day did not officially become a national holiday until Richard Nixon signed it into law in April of 1972.

“Honor your father and mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God has given you.” The first commandment with a promise. How sad that Godly mothers are not valued and honored as they should be today. These amazing women, who carry a beautiful child, knit together in their wombs by God Himself, for nine months. Then, there’s the miracle of birth, and God’s even equipped mothers in a special way so those precious little ones can bond with them as they receive the sustenance they need from their mothers’ own bodies.

Mothers pray for their children before they’re ever born and never stop praying for them all their lives. They spend countless sleepless nights comforting their little ones, caring for all their needs. They watch them grow, as they raise them to know the Lord and His infinite goodness. They mend their wounds and have the unique ability to heal scraped knees with just a kiss. They teach them to walk, talk, read and write. They encourage their creativity as they hang crayon-colored masterpieces on the refrigerator and then keep them forever as cherished moments of their childhood.

When their children hurt, they hurt too. When their children rejoice, Godly mothers are there to cheer them on. And then one day, the child leaves the nest, but no matter how old he becomes, “Mom” will always be “Mom,” cherished, loved and honored. One day, Mom’s soul will outgrow her body, and she’ll take up residence with her Savior, Jesus, in heaven… but her wisdom, love and nurturing will live on forever in her children, her children’s children, and their children. What a wonderful plan and design God gave us for the natural family — and especially precious is the love of a Godly mother.

They possess qualities that Dads just don’t have, and that’s how it should be. I’ve learned so much from my own mother, and have dear, fond memories that will last my whole lifetime. The same is true of my wife. Both were selfless, loving, giving, prayerful, nurturing and absolutely precious women of God, true blessings to all their children, and their grandchildren.

If you’re blessed enough today to still have your Mom with you in this world, go give her a hug and let her know how much she means to you. I can no longer do that, but my kids remember their grandma’s sweet, loving embrace — that same love that my wife is now passing on to our children’s children. Pray for your Mom, thank God for her. There truly is nothing in the world like a mother’s love.

The Systematic Killing of America, Part 3

By Glynn Adams

May 18, 2025

The shadow government is alive and well in America and has been since the early 1900s. “The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) established six years after the Federal Reserve was created, worked to promote an internationalist agenda on behalf of the international banking elite. Where the Fed took control of money and debt, the CFR took control of the ideological foundations of such an empire – encompassing the corporate, banking, political, foreign policy, military, media, and academic elite of the nation into generally cohesive overall world view.” Carroll Quigley, “Tragedy and Hope”

As the House of Morgan with its ongoing ties to the House of Rothschild, took the lead in the creation of the Federal Reserve and it also spearheaded the formation of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). In post-World War I America, Morgan and Company wielded almost unlimited power. The wealth of Morgan, Rothschild, Carnegie, Rockefeller, and elites was unmeasurable. Through the years, the CFR remained under the domain of the House of Morgan, Rothschild, and eventually Rockefeller. These banking families controlled and financed it. They selected its staff, set its agenda, and arranged the placement of its members in key government positions.

Its purpose was to align America’s foreign policy with the aim of the international money cartel in the same manner that the Federal Reserve aligned America’s economic policy. Its activities were never benign and removed from their ultimate goal of accumulation of the world’s wealth. The CFR became a place where enterprising bankers and businessmen gather to gain access to America’s elite. In their arrival in their chosen professions, they would receive an invitation to join the CFR. At the CFR, they formed alliances with other members to shape public policy through lobbyist, political action committees (PACS) and political contributions.

The CFR became the first organization to unite private interests under the Houses of Morgan and Rockefeller with the purpose of influencing governmental decisions and directives. The Council on Foreign Relations has been described as a “front organization for the heart of the American Establishment.” One author called the CFR as “a sort of Presidium for that part of the Establishment that guides our destiny as a nation. .Policy and strategy are worked out by the Council and reach the President by way of the State Department, which, of course, is largely staffed and always directed by Council members.

Richard Harwood, managing editor of The Washington Post, wrote, CFR members are the nearest thing we have to a ruling establishment to the United States. The CFR has become in essence an agency of the United Sates Government and its productions are not objective but are directed overwhelmingly at promoting the globalists concept. “An end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal assault.”

Within the hallowed halls of the Pratt House, including its 55,000 volume library, a carefully selected group of candidates are groomed for prominent position of power in the federal government. Proof of this resides in the fact that by 2017, twenty-seven secretaries of state, nineteen secretaries of the treasury, fifteen secretaries of defense and hundreds of other federal department heads have been CFR members, along with twenty-one of the twenty-four CIA directors, and every chairman of the Federal Reserve since 1951. In addition, studies generated by the CFR have resulted in the establishment of such international institutions as the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund. Thanks to former President Dwight David Eisenhower and the Dulles brothers, the U.S. State Department by this time was firmly under the council’s control.

When someone makes the statement that our President and Congress are going to wipe out the Deep State, or the establishment, or the shadow government, I just laugh and then cringe. The Deep State, the establishment or shadow government, or whatever you want to call it, has been controlling America and her politicians from President Woodrow Wilson to these modern times for many, many years, and has more power and money than the United States of America ever dreamed of having. We have been sold out by our Presidents, Senators, and House politicians, and manipulated by evil men for their personal gain of great wealth and power. The powers of darkness have invaded our land and the average citizen and church pastor and its members have no idea of the level of evil in this land.

The God we serve is all powerful but Jesus left His Body on this earth to manage it and Christians in America have not managed our land; instead they have been managed in deception. The fact remains that God many years ago has already spoken of our situation in America and how to solve it. It is found in Numbers 33:55-56, “But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall come about that those whom you let remain of them will become as pricks in your eyes and as thorns in your sides, and they shall trouble you in the land in which you live. And it shall come about that as I plan to do to them, so I will do to you.” “Hath God Really Said?” Yes we just read it. I Corinthians 10:11, and Romans 15:4, states the Old Testament was written for our example and our instruction and that we may have hope.

America had better wake up and resist the enemy in our land. If we don’t, then all these curses, demons, evil spirits, doctrine of demons, demonic strongholds, rulers, high places, witches, and all the powers of darkness from hell will overcome us and rule over us that will make the CFR and establishment look like child’s play. We shall suffer greatly in torment, or rejoice in the glory of victory; the choice is ours to make. If the doctor gives you the wrong diagnosis and you get the wrong treatment, you will die. If Christians in America make the wrong choice or no choice, we die and God will not hold us guiltless!!!!!

It is my hope that Christians in America see the brevity of this evil in our land. Our pastors and politicians have selfish ambition which has brought demons and the world’s ways in our churches and nation. Pastors want bigger churches, more numbers, more money, bigger buildings, bigger budgets, bigger staff, and bigger programs, and politicians want more money and power. What’s the difference between the pastors in America and our politicians? “If you have ………selfish ambition in your heart, do not be arrogant and so lie against the truth. This wisdom is not that which come down from above but is earthly, natural, demonic. For where selfish ambition exists, there is disorder and every evil thing.” (James 3:14:16)

In America, the fleshly and worldly hearts of our pastors and God’s flock are no longer right with God and our ineffective religious ways is an abomination to our Lord Jesus Christ. We are not living and operating by the Spirit of the Living God!! Our Lord deserves better. He deserves a people who are obedient to Him, in total allegiance to Him, and are committed to doing His will on this earth as it is done in heaven by expanding His Kingdom of God on this earth, using the laws of heaven, and being a part of completing His eternal purpose on this earth – intimate relationship with Jesus and making disciples conformed to His image!!!

Jesus is not coming down here to bail us out by doing what He has commissioned His Body to do; He is here in each of us who call ourselves Christians. We must forsake what we are doing and get in on what our Head wants to do through us. Repent, get filled with the Holy Spirit, and use His resources He has provided to us – His power, His authority, His Word, His armor, and His Name. We will always triumph in Jesus’ Name if we will meet Him at the battlefield. I hope this helps your fear of God. “And they overcame him (Satan) because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even to death.” (Revelation 12:11) YOU CAN’T HIDE OR PLAY SAFE FROM GOD!!!!

May God bless us as we get our hearts right with God, I remain His warrior and watchman, Glynn Adams (A big hearty thanks of appreciation to Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne and Paul L. Williams and their wonderful book that is so well documented with the true facts, “The Killing of Uncle Sam” I strongly recommend every Christian read this true history of this great nation presented in this book. My articles only touch a small part of our history – good and bad. Next week: Part IV of The Systematic Killing of America)

Understanding REAL ID

By Paul Engel

May 17, 2025

After 20 years, the REAL ID Act of 2005 is finally being enforced.
Is this a REAL ID or a new National ID?
Does Congress have the authority to tell states how to issue drivers’ licenses?

It took more than 20 years, but the REAL ID Act of 2005 is finally being enforced. While several people have talked about the requirements for a REAL ID, and whether or not they even need one, I haven’t heard anyone ask one very important question: Is it legal?

History

After the attacks on September 11, 2001, politicians were scrambling to find ways to claim they were protecting the American people. The Patriot Act, the Transportation Security Administration, and the explosion of surveillance cameras are just a few examples. In the middle of this maelstrom of security came “The REAL ID Act of 2005.” What was the purpose of this legislation?

To establish and rapidly implement regulations for State driver’s license and identification document security standards, to prevent terrorists from abusing the asylum laws of the United States, to unify terrorism-related grounds for inadmissibility and removal, and to ensure expeditious construction of the San Diego border fence.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

If there’s one thing I’ve learned about reading legislation, it’s don’t believe the title. Yes, this is the REAL ID Act, and yes it does claim to create standards for REAL IDs, but that’s not all it does. As a matter of fact, less than 20% of the words in this legislation have anything to do with REAL IDs. Most of the language deals with terrorists and immigration.

The logic behind the REAL ID portion of this legislation is to insure that those who’ve been issued these “enhanced” identifications really are the people they claim to be. This is supposed to enhance security for air travel and access to federal and military locations.

Title II–Improved Security For Drivers’ Licenses And Personal Identification Cards

The first thing we need to understand about REAL ID is that it is only for federal recognition.

SEC. 202. MINIMUM DOCUMENT REQUIREMENTS AND ISSUANCE STANDARDS FOR FEDERAL RECOGNITION.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

This act places no requirements that a state not only recognize a REAL ID, it simply defines the requirements for a state issued ID to be recognized by the federal government. However, even with this simple goal, things did not work out as planned.

(a) Minimum Standards for Federal Use.–
(1) In general.–Beginning 3 years after the date of the enactment of this Act, a Federal agency may not accept, for any official purpose, a driver’s license or identification card issued by a State to any person unless the State is meeting the requirements of this section.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

Even though the requirement for federal agencies to accept only REAL IDs was three years after the enactment of this legislation, it took 20 years to get everything in place.

(b) Minimum Document Requirements.–To meet the requirements of this section, a State shall include, at a minimum, the following information and features on each driver’s license and identification card issued to a person by the State:

The REAL ID Act of 2005

Part of the reason for the delay were the requirements for a state issued ID to meet these new standards. Most of the standards are pretty simple: Full name, date of birth, address, etc. However, a couple of requirements made things difficult.

(8) Physical security features designed to prevent tampering, counterfeiting, or duplication of the document for fraudulent purposes.
(9) A common machine-readable technology, with defined minimum data elements.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

Remember, there are 50 states plus the District of Columbia, not to mention territories like Puerto Rico and Guam, that had to both agree to and adopt these standards. What security features would the states implement? Could all of the states produce IDs with those features or would they have to buy new equipment? Did all of the states have data systems to collect and process the minimum data elements? And who would decide which security features and data elements would be required?

Federal Overreach

It seems Congress can hardly pass legislation without going beyond the powers vested in them by the Constitution. Take for example this demand of the legislation.

(c) Minimum Issuance Standards.–
(1) In general.–To meet the requirements of this section, a State shall require, at a minimum, presentation and verification of the following information before issuing a driver’s license or identification card to a person:

The REAL ID Act of 2005

Nothing in the Constitution of the United States delegates to its government the power to regulate driver’s licenses or identification. Congress can determine the rules for identifications that federal agencies are allowed to accept, but they cannot dictate to the states what their ID’s must include. While technically the states are only required to meet these standards if they want the federal government to recognize them, like voter registration, it will be difficult for states to create a two-tiered identification system. That is not the only overreach in this section:

(C) Proof of the person’s social security account number or verification that the person is not eligible for a social security account number.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

Tell me, what does participation in the illegal government retirement program have to do with your identification? How does a social security number verify who you are, especially since these documents do not include a photo or other information used for identification purposes? Could this be another attempt to make sure everyone participates in this illegal program?

Then there are the “special requirements,” some of which will make things quite difficult for some people.

(2) Special requirements.–
…
(B) Evidence of lawful status.–A State shall require, before issuing a driver’s license or identification card to a person, valid documentary evidence that the person–
(i) is a citizen of the United States;
(ii) is an alien lawfully admitted for permanent or temporary residence in the United States;

…

The REAL ID Act of 2005

My first thought is this will make things more difficult for “sanctuary” cities and states. After all, they won’t be able to go 100% to REAL IDs since illegal aliens are not eligible for them. Then I thought, what if an illegal alien needs to enter a federal courthouse, possibly to turn themselves in or appear for a hearing? They will be required to have a REAL ID to enter, so they will need some other form of ID, which they may not possess. So how could they comply with a federal order to appear if courthouse security won’t let them in?

On the other hand, this would also stop someone from recreating Biden’s catch and release program, where his administration flew illegal aliens around the country. I guess they would have to make sure that someone has acceptable ID to apply for amnesty.

(3) Verification of documents.–To meet the requirements of this section, a State shall implement the following procedures:
(A) Before issuing a driver’s license or identification card to a person, the State shall verify, with the issuing agency, the issuance, validity, and completeness of each document required to be presented by the person under paragraph (1) or (2).

The REAL ID Act of 2005

And who verifies that the documents were verified? What if those documents were issued by entities that don’t share information? For example, states can accept official foreign passports for identification, but how do states verify those passports?

Expanding the Police State

As if the examples of the federal government becoming a police state aren’t numerous enough, this REAL ID expands them further.

(d) Other Requirements.–To meet the requirements of this section, a State shall adopt the following practices in the issuance of drivers’ licenses and identification cards:

(1) Employ technology to capture digital images of identity source documents so that the images can be retained in electronic storage in a transferable format.
(2) Retain paper copies of source documents for a minimum of 7 years or images of source documents presented for a minimum of 10 years.
(3) Subject each person applying for a driver’s license or identification card to mandatory facial image capture.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

More instances of governments trying to capture images of you to search later. I’ve talked before about Automated License Plate Readers; now the government wants a copy of your driver’s license photo, and they want it in a database. As if that weren’t bad enough, the federal government will bribe the states into sharing this data with others.

SEC. 203. LINKING OF DATABASES.

(a) In General.–To be eligible to receive any grant or other type of financial assistance made available under this title, a State shall participate in the interstate compact regarding sharing of driver license data, known as the `Driver License Agreement,’ in order to provide electronic access by a State to information contained in the motor vehicle databases of all other States.
(b) Requirements for Information.–A State motor vehicle database shall contain, at a minimum, the following information:
(1) All data fields printed on drivers’ licenses and identification cards issued by the State.
(2) Motor vehicle drivers’ histories, including motor vehicle violations, suspensions, and points on licenses.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

How is the federal government going to get the states to join in this database? With bribery, of course, but I’ll talk more about that later. And just what restrictions will be placed on the access of this database? Will law enforcement require a warrant to search it? Because there will be more in this database than just your identification and driving record.

(5) Confirm with the Social Security Administration a social security account number presented by a person using the full social security account number. In the event that a social security account number is already registered to or associated with another person to which any State has issued a driver’s license or identification card, the State shall resolve the discrepancy and take appropriate action.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

That’s right, your social security number is part of the verification of who you are. While your SSN doesn’t have to be printed on your license, and therefore isn’t required to be included in this interstate database, the state is required to retain that data for future use. I wonder what that could be about?

More Federal Bribery

Since this legislation has put requirements on the states that will cost them money if they wish their IDs to be federally recognized, Congress can’t seem to resist waving a bribe before them.

SEC. 205. GRANTS TO STATES.

(a) In General.–The Secretary may make grants to a State to assist the State in conforming to the minimum standards set forth in this title.
(b) Authorization of Appropriations.–There are authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary for each of the fiscal years 2005 through 2009 such sums as may be necessary to carry out this title.

The REAL ID Act of 2005

That’s right, the Secretary of Homeland Security is not only authorized to bribe the states with grants not authorized by the Constitution of the United States. Congress has already appropriated whatever money the Secretary claims in necessary for previous years. Do you really think Congress won’t embezzle more funds for this ID program?

Conclusion

Now, after 20 years of trying, this legislation is finally going into effect. While I recognize the need for identification to be trustworthy, I don’t think Congress should be allowed to violate the Constitution to do so. Yes, what I’ve covered is mostly within the section for federal recognition of IDs, but even there Congress seems to have ignored the supreme law of the land.

One of the obvious purposes of this so-called REAL ID appears to be to make sure everyone has their illegal social security number. I’m still baffled by why the federal government wants to link their illegal retirement system to your photo ID? Could it be this is their attempt to create a national ID system? Congress has tried in the past to create a national ID, and failed. Could linking REAL ID to your social security number be a back-door to do so? By placing any financial assistance to the states to their participation in an interstate compact to share data, Congress has effectively created a national ID database, including not only your name and birthdate, but a facial recognition image. And this data is linked to your state ID, which includes copies of the documents you used to prove your identity. In other words, everything law enforcement needs to find you if they want. This would be scary enough if Congress and the courts required law enforcement to follow the Fourth Amendment, but in general they haven’t.

Does the federal government have the authority to determine the requirements for the identification documents they accept? Yes. Can Congress limit access to federal buildings to those with proper ID? Generally yes, but I do see some problems with the limitations they’ve put place. Does the federal government have the right to limit air travel to those with these documents? I see nothing in the Constitution that would grant to them that power. After all, the act of flying is not commerce. While Congress can regulate both the interstate and foreign commerce parts of commercial flight, where do they get to regulate who can fly? It’s not the Constitution of the United States.

After asking about the Constitutionality of The REAL ID Act, the next most common question is: Do I need one? Ultimately, it’s up to you. When I lived in New York State, I got an enhanced driver’s license to allow me to drive across the Canadian border without other documentation. That was my decision, which I made for my convenience. While many “news” outlets imply that people will need a REAL ID to fly or enter a federal building, that is not true. There are other federally recognized IDs, like a passport, which will work just fine for these purposes. So the answer to the question, “Do you need a REAL ID?” ultimately comes down to your convenience vs your concerns about a federal ID database. If you have no immediate need to fly or enter a federal building, you can put off this decision until you renew your driver’s license.

The major concern I have personally regarding REAL IDs is that national database. Will Congress one day try to force the states to only issue REAL ID driver’s licenses? While unconstitutional, illegal, and void, it would not surprise me one little bit. And if you’re hoping the courts would prevent such unconstitutional legislation, recent history shows that would be unlikely.

Newsom Relinquishing Control of California to China to Meet Energy Needs?

By Ronald Stein, P.E. and Mike Umbro

May 17, 2025

While the economy DEMAND continues to increase for products and fuels, Newsom continues to destroy the SUPPLY of oil and refining to meet those DEMANDS – China coming to the rescue!

California’s Governor Newsom has been on this planet for 57 years and has yet to publicly recognize that modern life requires the use of fossil fuels to function. California is the fourth largest economy in the world. We require the PRODUCTS and TRANSPORTATION FUELS made from fossil fuels to meet the materialistic DEMANDS of humanity and our economy. Our crude oil demand exceeds 1.8 million barrels per day – this demand has proven inelastic over time.

Valero’s Benicia Refinery began operations in 1968, the same year Governor Gavin Newsom was born. More than five decades later, California still consumes over 1.8 million barrels of oil each day to meet its demands for the fuels and products made from oil. Despite advances in technology and efforts to transition toward renewable electricity, the fundamental structure of our economy remains deeply reliant on fossil fuel-derived products and transportation fuels.

From jet fuel and diesel to the thousands of petroleum-based components in electric vehicles (EVs), wind turbines, and solar panels, fossil fuels remain essential to our daily lives. While renewable electricity plays an important role in power generation, it cannot replace the raw materials and complex hydrocarbons refined from crude oil that are vital to every sector—from hospitals and national defense to communications and transportation.

California’s energy policies, particularly the mandate to phase out internal combustion vehicles and transition to EVs, addresses only a portion of our petroleum usage—namely gasoline. However, the electric vehicle itself, and its components, are manufactured using fossil fuel-based materials.

Meanwhile, demand for aviation and diesel fuels remains high:

• California consumes 13 million gallons of jet fuel per day, 16.7% of the national total to support its 145 airports, inclusive of 41 military airports and 9 international airports.
• The state uses 10 million gallons of diesel fuel daily to support its 35 million registered vehicles.
• Arizona and Nevada depend on California for 45% and 88% of their fuel needs, respectively.

Infrastructures that did not exist 200 years ago that DEMAND continuously increasing supplies of the products and fuels made from fossil fuels are:

• Hospitals
• Airports
• Military
• Medical equipment
• Telecommunications
• Communications systems
• Space programs
• Appliances
• Electronics
• Sanitation
• Heating and ventilating

Newsom wishes to “transition away from fossil fuels” but he has offered no backup plan to maintain the supply chain of products and fuels to support all the above-mentioned infrastructures.

While California policies are doing everything possible to eliminate oil production and refining out of the state with over-regulations, taxes, and environmental programs, China is ramping up its oil refinery capabilities.

This is not a partisan issue. A secure, affordable, and environmentally responsible energy future requires a pragmatic, science-based approach. We must:

• Recognize the enduring role of petroleum-based products in society.
• Ensure a stable and resilient domestic energy supply chain.
• Support innovation in both renewable and traditional electricity sectors.
• Plan responsibly for transition timelines that reflect technological and logistical realities.

As California continues to lead in climate ambition, it must also lead in practical, inclusive energy planning. The stakes—for our economy, environment, and national security—demand nothing less.

China openly supports political activism in California and is savoring the future with their many refineries coming online to meet the DEMANDS of the American society.

With the upcoming closures of the Phillips 66 Refinery in Southern California in 2025, and the Valero Refinery in Northern California in 2026, a growing national security concern would result from our growing dependence on China to meet the humongous demands for transportation fuels by California, Arizona and Nevada. The two refinery closures represent almost 17% of the state’s crude oil processing capacity to meet the materialistic demands of the States’ residents, and much of the transportation fuels needs in AZ and NV.

As California intensifies regulatory and tax burdens on in-state oil production and refining, other nations, particularly China, are rapidly expanding their refining capacities. At least eight new refinery projects are planned in China by 2030. These facilities will not only serve their own domestic growth but increasingly export refined products to nations like the U.S., offsetting California’s declining supply.

This shift carries serious implications. Offshore refining to meet U.S. demand contributes to higher global emissions, limited domestic job creation, and increased dependence on foreign supply chains—potentially weakening our national resilience and security.

Compounding the growing need for more importation to meet the materialistic demands of society will be the West Coast port’s ability to receive transportation fuels as marine facilities in California face increased congestion and dramatic vessel limits.

Our modern infrastructure—airports, hospitals, military bases, and even sanitation systems—cannot function without continuous access to petroleum-based fuels and products. Yet, California’s energy strategy focuses overwhelmingly on restricting domestic supply without a clear, scalable alternative to meet persistent demand.

The reality is this: limiting the local supply of the fuels and products made from oil without reducing demand doesn’t solve the climate challenge, it simply shifts environmental and social impacts overseas, often to countries with less stringent environmental protections and labor laws.

Is This What We Voted For?

By Cliff Kincaid

May 16, 2025

As President Trump was in the middle of a Middle East trip, cultivating financial ties and making arms deals with Arab oil sheiks and funders of Islamist terrorism, the Republican-controlled House Ways and Means Committee released a copy of a “Big, Beautiful Bill” that would add at least $3.8 trillion to the deficit and perhaps as much as $5.3 trillion.

The tax reduction bill did NOT include a provision eliminating taxes on Social Security, which Trump campaigned on.

In Saudi Arabia, Trump attacked the neo-cons for trying to transform the Middle East but the idea of leaving the region in the hands of Jihadists of a Sunni or Shiite character will not benefit the United States or the world. Trump’s billionaire globalist friends at the “Saudi-U.S. Investment Forum” will lose their shirts — and Israel may not survive — if the global Islamic terror network based in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and now Syria is not identified and defeated.

The Saudi Royal Family was implicated in the 9/11 terrorist attacks on America and Qatar’s offer of a luxury jet to the president stinks to high heaven, considering the regime’s funding of Hamas and other Islamic terrorist groups.

Under Trump, some “America First” advocates expected he would withdraw our support for the Qatar regime and close the largest U.S. military installation in the Middle East that is maintained there.

The Muslim Brotherhood, which effectively controls Qatar’s Al-Jazeera television network, gave rise to terrorist organizations such as Hamas, the officially designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) that launched the October 7, 2023 attacks on Israel. However, the Muslim Brotherhood is not an officially designated FTO, even under Trump.

Here at home, Trump has deferred to the Supreme Court, an inferior and unelected branch of government with no military or police power, on matters of national security, including deporting Hamas operatives, foreign gang members, and terrorists.

These recent decisions tell you everything you want to know about who is now running the country:

U.S. Supreme Court lets Trump’s transgender military ban take effect (Reuters)
Supreme Court allows Trump to enforce trans military ban (Just the News)
Supreme Court Lets Trump Enforce Transgender Troop Ban as Cases Proceed on (New York Times)
Supreme Court stays lower court ruling, allowing Trump transgender ban to proceed (Fox News)

What is amazing is that, whether the outlet is left or right, they all agree that the Supreme Court somehow has the right to decide military policy. It does not.

It can only enforce its rulings if the other branches accept it. They did so with the unconstitutional Roe v. Wade decision, legalizing abortion on demand, and Obergefell v. Hodges, legalizing “gay marriage” nationally. Only the Roe decision was subsequently overturned by the Court itself. The Roe decision led to 60 million dead babies and there is still no legalized and recognized right to life on the federal level.

We are living under a Supreme Court dictatorship.

Regarding the gay marriage decision, Justice Antonin Scalia’s dissent in the case called the ruling a judicial “Putsch,” an attempt to overthrow a form of government — ours. His dissent, joined by Justice Clarence Thomas, was written “to call attention to this Court’s threat to American democracy.”

The threat continues.

Scalia understood the power and meaning of words and he chose the word “putsch” for a specific purpose. One definition of the term means “a secretly plotted and suddenly executed attempt to overthrow a government…” Another definition is “a plotted revolt or attempt to overthrow a government, especially one that depends upon suddenness and speed.”

As he pleads for more favorable rulings from the Supreme Court, President Trump was in Saudi Arabia and greeted the new president of Syria, a Jihadist by the name of Ahmed Al-Sharaa. He created the al-Nusrah Front, an arm of al-Qaeda.

Under Trump’s first term, the al-Nusrah Front was labeled a Foreign Terrorist Organization.

Understandably, Trump wants to put an end to the disasters in the Middle East initiated by the Obama administration and which led to the Syrian civil war. But his ending of sanctions on the new Sunni Muslim terrorist government of Syria will not accomplish that. What is more, he seems to be negotiating for the survival of the Shiite terrorist regime in Iran in exchange for certain restrictions on its nuclear program.

Trump’s friendly relationships with Qatar‘s ruling monarchy were also disturbing. Qatar is an undemocratic regime that sponsors al-Qaeda and Jihadist terror groups, including Hamas, throughout the Middle East.

Qatar’s Al-Jazeera network, known as Terror Television, is still in operation and inspired foreign Muslim fighters to go to places like Iraq and Afghanistan for the specific purpose of killing U.S. service members.

In 2003 testimony to the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, Mamoun Fandy, an expert on the Arab media, said Al-Jazeera’s reporters and correspondents constitute a “who is who in the rank and file of the [Muslim] brotherhood,” described as “the first Islamic organization with global reach” and has left a “record of destruction” throughout the Middle East.

Regarding Saudi Arabia, the Saudi role in funding the Global Jihad Movement was never officially investigated in detail. The role of many Saudis in the 9/11 terrorist attacks on America should have put Saudi Arabia on the State Department list of state sponsors of terrorism.

9/11 was an attack that was foreseeable and preventable. As journalist Peter Lance has documented in his book Triple Cross, there was a spectacular “failure of accountability” for those who could and should have stopped the 9/11 attacks. Lance’s book traces the history of some of the perpetrators of these terrorist acts going back to 1981. His book goes into substantial detail about the TWA 800 and Oklahoma City bombing cases and how government officials covered up the nature of these crimes, too, and their Middle East connections.

9/11 was used as justification by various U.S. Administrations to go to war in the Middle East. Yet, to this day, details about the Saudi role in 9/11 have been withheld.

Remember that 15 of the 19 terrorist hijackers involved in the 9/11 attacks came from Saudi Arabia. 9/11’s so-called 20th hijacker, Zacarias Moussaoui, speaking from behind federal prison walls, had told attorneys suing Saudi Arabia over its role in 9/11 that major Saudi figures, including members of the Saudi Royal Family, were on a list of donors to al-Qaeda prior to 9/11.

Litigation is still continuing on behalf of the 9/11 families to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for its role in the terrorist attacks.

Yet, President Trump was there in Saudi Arabia, on the first leg of his trip, praising Saudi officials and welcoming their financial investments in the United States. He was accompanied by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, the Chairman and CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, whose bond trading firm and employees in the World Trade Center’s North Tower were victims on 9/11 and whose younger brother, Gary, lost his life in the attack.

Families of 9/11 victims wrote to Lutnick before the trip, asking him to press the Saudi government to extradite a Saudi intelligence officer to the U.S. because of his alleged connected to the 9/11 hijackers.

“86 47” – A James Comey Post

By Kat Stansell

May 16, 2025

According to the Gateway pundit late this afternoon, May 15, 2025,

“James Comey posted a cryptic message to his Instagram account on Thursday spelled out in seashells: “86 47”.

Don’t be silly. Right? Rumors are the stuff of politics. However, the White House has responded, calling it “what can clearly be interpreted as ‘a hit’ on the sitting President of the United States.”

The White House says it will be taken seriously. Proper punishment for this kind of overt threat on someone’s life is atop my daily prayer list. I pray that this IS taken seriously. I have to wonder how involved is this Trump-hater extraordinaire in the other attempts on our President’s life.

By posting this on an Instagram account, this overt threat moves from the realm of “hearsay” or rumor, to an active and intentional thought.

I wonder every day, who will be next, and when another attempt on Donald Trump’s life will be made. I fear it’s not “if”, but “when”.

I cannot imagine what the Trump family must feel every day.

Sane people do not threaten the life of another. You can disagree all you want, even say nasty stuff, but – in my book anyhow – you MAY NOT threaten the lives of others.

Did I despise Joe Biden? Absolutely. He is a career criminal who has stolen billions from the American people, and I wanted him gone. Out of any office where he could harm others ever again. I’d love to see him in jail, not only for breaking many laws, but for the crimes against humanity with which he assisted. I still feel that way, 100%/.

Even more, I despise Barack Obama and the lies he lived. He, too, was the enemy of freedom, and prevaricated, 24/7. Obama had a hauteur about him that turned my stomach. He clearly thought himself the superior to everyone. I almost felt sorry for “Michelle”, but not really. He knew exactly what he was getting into from their days in Chicago..

Even the scum listed above, however, did not overtly talk happily about someone being “no longer available” I agree with the White House assessment. Comey was enjoying the thought of a hit on Donald Trump.

The term, “86” came from the restaurant industry in the 1930’s, and meant that something was no longer available. Off the menu, so to speak. Colloquially, it has come to mean something that is “gone”.

I believe that James Comey needs to be placed in a nice quiet cell, for some time to come, where he will have plenty of time to wallow in his dark ways, without smearing them all over the internet for people to see.

Innocent Christians have been attacked, injured, jailed, even murdered, for praying outside an abortion facility, by Comey’s gang. It is our turn, to jail a criminal for enjoying the thought of “hit” on our President.

Sorry, God. I know we are not to think evil of others. After what this nation has been through, though, I can’t help pray for what my Grandma called, someone getting their “just deserts.” We need a break here.

Honestly Assessing Trump (Day 114)

By Lex Greene

May 15, 2025

Before I begin, let me state for the record that I am a lifelong “constitutional conservative” member of the Republican Party. I voted for Trump in 2016, 2020 and 2024. So, my assessment is as a member of the MAGA movement that started in 2008 after the fraudulent election of Barack Hussein Obama. Honestly, only people who hate America wouldn’t want to make our country great again!

First and foremost, Trump is one of the greatest self-promoters of all time. He built an impressive global empire on his ability to win friends, influence people, make smart deals, and build a family dynasty larger than life. Kudos to him and his very bright family for all of their private sector accomplishments. These are the kind of people we need in government, people with a strong successful resume’.

As President, he continues to be a great self-promoter as he constantly chronicles his “wins” and “promises kept,” as he should. To be very fair, he was handed an intentional disaster upon entering the office both times, with a corrupt system working against him every step of the way, and still, he is indeed moving at a record pace to accomplish what he promised to accomplish. READ HERE

But I am very concerned about the most critical unkept-promise he made in 2016, 2020, and 2024, which appears to not be a front-burner issue still today.

“LOCK HER UP”

In 2016, this promise pertained to career criminal Hillary Clinton for her many treasonous acts not just against Trump, but against the USA and every legal American citizen. In the aftermath of the treasonous “Russian Collusion” scam, criminal lawfare, and fake impeachments, independent investigators delved deep into “deep state” activities and uncovered an entire cabal of treasonous scumbags. EVIDENCE PRESENTED HERE

“What difference does it make?” – Hillary Clinton

But as of today, Day 114 of the second Trump administration, action on the evidence of massive sedition, subversion and treason from leftwing political operatives in politics, the media, and the courts, remains deafeningly silent.

Publicly, there’s been no mention of pursuing the individuals that we all know were involved in historic levels of outright corruption rising to the level of treason against the United States.

Yes, we are talking about some of the most powerful people in the USA. We’re also talking about the type of people who can never be trusted with that power, and who must pay the price of treason, or treason will remain a crime no longer prosecuted in the USA.

Over a thousand American citizens were politically imprisoned for attending a campaign rally on public property in DC on January 6, 2021. But not one single person evidenced in THIS DOCUMENTARY has been formerly investigated, charged, prosecuted or punished for their many seditious crimes against the American citizens.

These are the most dangerous people in America. They are directly responsible for unmatched damage to our country. There is no way to Make America Great Again so long as treason from within remains a crime never punished!

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.” – Cicero

So, I have to ask…

With all the public evidence against these individuals, Trump’s promise to “lock them up,” Kash Patel’s totally disturbing evidence against them as the new Director of the FBI, and Pam Bondi at the helm of the Department of Justice….

WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE TO HOLD THESE ANTI-AMERICAN CRIMINALS FULLY ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS?

In my opinion, Trump can have a thousand other accomplishments, and unless he accomplishes this, he will not be able to Make America Great Again!

I continue to support Trump. But as Trump allows the unconstitutional Judicial Branch to act as if they were elected to run the country, and the most dangerous criminals in the USA go unpunished, I do not expect the USA to ever be great again. Do you?

Trump’s First 100 Days: A Gold Standard for the History Books

By Cherie Zaslawsky

May 15, 2025

We have witnessed the greatest comeback in American political history. Who would have thought, after packing up for Mar-a-lago though he knew the 2020 election had been stolen from him, that Trump would run again? Or that he’d draw huge crowds to his signature rallies once more, even after the Dems did their damnedest to tarnish him as “a convicted felon”?

And when all their malevolent lawfare shenanigans failed, their likely Plan D was nearly accomplished in Butler, Pennsylvania when Trump missed being assassinated by a hair’s breadth. Ironically, it was his courageous defiance and his concern for We the People that emerged in his now iconic gesture to the crowd, “Fight! Fight! Fight!” that arguably sealed his victory, as well as his likely place on Mount Rushmore. And what are we to fight for? America! Our sovereignty! Our traditional Judeo-Christian values! Our birthright liberty!

And now, beyond Trump’s astonishing comeback and his landslide win in 2024, we have witnessed his first 100 days in office. Rather than pointing out the several things we may disagree about, or the staff or Cabinet posts we might think were bad picks, let’s admit that these 100 days were nothing short of breathtaking!

BIG, BEAUTIFUL TARIFFS

Not long ago, I read a stunning article about Trump’s tariffs that challenged the popular consensus of both the nay-sayers and the enthusiasts. Perhaps because I’m fresh from reading Trump’s autobiographical bestseller, “The Art of the Deal”—as engaging and entertaining as it is enlightening about deal-making—that article’s analysis makes perfect sense to me.

One of my favorite passages in Trump’s book is the one in which he stands looking at the old Commodore Hotel, and opines that most people standing there see a dilapidated hotel in a sad-looking neighborhood, but he sees something else. He sees scores of well-dressed men and women hurrying out of Grand Central Station, right across the street from the Commodore. He imagines a renovated and beautiful hotel there that would draw from that well-heeled crowd and light up the neighborhood. In other words, the man’s a visionary! He sees possibilities that others miss.

And that is the point of Jeff Childers’ brilliant analysis of Trump’s tariffs, in which he opines:

Historically, tariffs have always been used as protectionist tools (e.g., Smoot-Hawley) or revenue generators (in the pre-income-tax period). But Trump saw something every other president missed: he’s wielding tariffs as a universal negotiation tool, forcing countries to come to the table, not just to talk about widgets and steel, but to extract much broader concessions on things like military cost-sharing, tech regulation, currency manipulation, and who knows what else.

* * *

It’s totally new and wildly unprecedented. It’s like the Marshall Plan in reverse, except with the whole world, not just Western Europe. Trump is monetizing American hegemony. The globalists built a one-way grocery aisle of dependency — and Trump put a cash register at the end of the aisle. And now the whole world is waiting in line.

* * *

The most underappreciated piece of the puzzle is that only President Trump spotted the possibilities.

By the way, I attended a Townhall Zoom conference not long ago, and listened to a 20-minute presentation on tariffs by an expert economist. His basic conclusion: tariffs are bad. And he’s not alone: Many economists hate tariffs, Democrats hate tariffs, Libertarians hate tariffs, Saturday Night Live comedians hate tariffs—all the more if they’re imposed by the Orange Man.

But the expert economists and talking heads are mostly thinking within the box.

Trump doesn’t merely think outside the box, he doesn’t even notice the box! He looks with fresh eyes at the actual big picture—in this case at world economics—sees how other nations have ripped off America—and figures out how to remedy the situation. He’s bringing other nations to the bargaining table in the realization that the U.S., in spite of four miserable years of Bidenomics, is still the richest and most powerful country in the world—and he’s using that as leverage. He’s hitting other nations where it hurts: in their balance sheets.

But the purpose isn’t to “punish” them—it’s to effect a realignment of world economics that puts America back where we were before decades of incremental Progressive siphoning off of our wealth and productivity—the “giant sucking sound” Ross Perot spoke of when he ran for President in 1992, warning us what would happen if our manufacturing plants moved to Mexico.

It’s Trump’s signature campaign promise: to Make America Great Again! And that means we have to stop being the world’s piggy bank, which is all the more important as average Americans have been struggling after four years with a crooked and obviously senile man in the Oval Office, and with America-hating Obama likely the one calling the shots from behind the curtain.

WINNING WITH DOGE & BEYOND

President Trump’s execution of this overhaul of world economies at the same time he’s exposing and eliminating domestic rip-offs through DOGE, is sheer brilliance. In essence, he’s balancing the books! He’s uncovering the massive theft of American wealth by Leftists inside our own government, as well as the plundering of our nation by the international globalist elites and pals, as well as the “monkey see, monkey do” response of many other countries.

Even before President Trump had been in office for the proverbial 100 days, he’d begun winning so handily for the American people that it had to be seen to be believed.

Among his spectacular early achievements is the creation of DOGE which is uncovering the enormous waste—which looks mostly like fraud—hidden away in the catacombs of the Administrative State. And with his daring choice of Elon Musk to oversee the task, the cleansing of our nation’s Augean Stables is well underway.

STRIKING AT THE ROOT OF CULTURAL & INTELLECTUAL MARXISM

One of my favorite wins is Trump’s pulling the plug on Ivy League anti-intellectual factories of Marxist indoctrination and rampant anti-Semitism, including Obama’s alma mater: Columbia, along with Hahvahd and Yale.

Better yet, he’s challenging their accreditation, which gets them where they live, in their wallets. Cato Institute Research fellow Andrew Gillen puts it this way: ““If you lose Pell grants and lose student loans, for most colleges that means you’re done.”

And President Trump is doing this to combat “Ideological Overreach.”
Delicious!

HALTING THE DAMAGE TO PROPERTY RIGHTS & MORE THROUGH PHONY-BALONEY ENVIRONMENTALISM

Another of my faves is Trump’s defanging of the Endangered Species Act. Apparently he hates the fact that California keeps wasting our water to “save” an inedible bait fish, the Delta smelt, as much as I do:

He has blamed the water woes of California on misguided efforts to “protect an essentially worthless fish.”

Not to mention the fact that, thanks to the chemicals being sprayed in our skies, the fluoride in our drinking water, our GMO foods, and experimental mRNA vaccines, the only endangered species on Earth happens to be homo sapiens—We the People!

Besides, the environmentalist claims are almost uniformly bogus. Neither the Spotted owl, nor the Delta smelt were actually “endangered” as claimed.

In an article for Real Clear Politics, Philip Wegmann notes:

“Environmental is the biggest tool for stopping growth,” Trump said during an interview with Joe Rogan last October, harking back to his New York days as a real estate developer and complaining that rare flora and fauna on a job site could quickly grind even the biggest construction projects to a halt. The candidate called environmental regulations “a weapon,” and later as president-elect, he vowed to expedite the environmental permit and approval process for any company investing at least $1 billion in the United States. Wrote Trump on Truth Social last December, “GET READY TO ROCK!!!”

Wegmann’s own analysis follows:

Sweeping change would follow from redefining a single word: harm. Instead of allowing the ESA’s mission creep to continue, resulting in people losing the use of their land if authorities were to find, for example, a red-toed blind salamander on it, the Trump administration is redefining “harm” as “to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect” the animal itself.

Bravo, Donald!

A BLACK EYE FOR BIG PHARMA

Not only did President Trump place Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in the most powerful health-related position in his Cabinet, but he’s now going after Pharma’s longtime habit of grossly overcharging its American customers. Why charge us triple or quadruple, or even eight times more for drugs than what they charge Canadians or Europeans? Because they could!

However, in the past few days, in addition to brokering peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, and a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, Trump signed an Executive Order pulling the rug out from under Big Pharma’s unconscionable scheme of price-gouging our own people.

Anyone tired of winning yet?

As a friend of mine put it: almost every day we seem to get another gift. Christmas came early this year!

THE EXQUISITE MELTDOWN OF THE LEFT

The Dems can’t seem to stop outing themselves as lunatics, from their great show of concern and compassion for a wife-beating Salvadoran gang member, to the kidnapping and murder of beloved pet squirrel P’nut by the overzealous New York gestapo, they’re on the wrong side of…well…everything.

This reminds me of how Trump changed the political landscape during his first run in 2016 with just two words: “Fake news.” Think of the courage it took to call out the mainstream media that way. And then rejoice in the fact that his pointing out that the Emperor wasn’t wearing any clothes got millions of previously trusting Americans to wake up. Perhaps even some Dems.

I said “perhaps.”

THE TRUTH HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: WE HAVE A LARGER THAN LIFE AMERICAN HERO IN THE WHITE HOUSE

Even Leftist politico Van Jones blurted out some obvious truth in an interview on TikTok:

Donald Trump is not an idiot. Let me just be very clear: Donald Trump is smarter than me, you, and all critics. You know why we know? Because he has the White House, the Senate, the House, the popular vote, he has a massive media ecosystem, bigger than the mainstream, built around him and for him, and a religiously religious fervor in a political movement around him. And his best buddy is the richest person in the history of the world, and the most relevant Kennedy is with him. This dude is a phenomenon! He is the most powerful human on earth and in our lifetime and we’re still saying well how is this guy…we look like idiots.

But I’ll give Steve Bannon the last word:

…he [Trump] understood at the time that if he came back and ran for president again, not just the Republican Establishment but that the Apparatus would try to put him in prison, the Apparatus would try to bankrupt him, the Apparatus would eventually try to assassinate him. He made the most courageous political move in the history of this country…

Most countries don’t have someone like Trump in their entire history. We’ve been very fortunate to have General Washington at the founding of the nation, President Lincoln at the rebirth of the nation and now President Trump at the rejuvenation of this country… a man like that comes along every hundred years. [Emphasis mine]

While we know the Radical Left and “One World Government” globalist elites will never give up and that vigilance must be our watchword, the MAGA Millions have surely earned a victory lap!

If No Longer ‘One Nation Under God’; We Will Become a Nation Gone Under

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 15, 2025

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

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

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

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

Joe Biden deliberately sabotaged Americans, all of us.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Prism of America’s Education: The Carousel of Hell

By Karen Schoen

May 14, 2025

Where have all the statesmen gone?

I have never been so disgusted with a group of people as I am with this Do Nothing Useful congress. President Trump is getting knocked around daily, and congress does absolutely nothing. Do they not realize that 2 years is a very short time till the next election??

President Trump is doing Executive Order (EO) after EO, to get us out of the mess OBiden put us in, and Congress does what? Watches? If Congress doesn’t turn these EO’s into law, the next RINO or Democrat President can cancel them all! Once again, we will end up on the Carousel of Hell, going round and round, feeling like we’re ready to throw up already. We’ve all experienced this as kids. You know, you eat too many sweets and a milkshake or 2, and whoa, that awesome carousel. Yeah, round and round, and there you go!

Does Congress care? I think not. The Debt is meaningless to them. What’s a few more trillion to throw away? Elon Musk dared to take a hard look at the bloated, corrupt government agencies and what did he get for it?? His cars and showrooms were torched. His stock took a serious slide, and Congress did nothing. Actually, they made it worse, by refusing to make the DOGE cuts permanent.

President Trump has over 200 lawsuits filed against the administration. The judges who should be defunded or impeached will always side with the Left. They could care less what happens to America, they only want to “GET TRUMP”. Do you realize that by getting Trump, they are really destroying Americans? They are greedy, and don’t care. Here is an action alert from Dr. Rich Swier:

TAKE ACTION: Tell your members of Congress to DEFUND ACTIVIST FEDERAL COURT JUDGES

PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH FAMILY, FRIENDS AND ON ALL OF YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS

Remember: It takes 67 votes in the US Senate to impeach activist Federal Court Judges. However it takes 50 votes, plus JD Vance, to defund and eliminate all of them! Call your Senators and Representatives today, and tell them to defund them all NOW!!

Newt Gingrich argues for cutting down district courts to curb judicial overreach

Florida has finally recognized the biggest lie of them all, “The Covid Vaccine is safe” Lie. Governor De Santis is being proactive in dealing with both CHEMTRAILS and COVID injections. Where is Congress?? Where is the investigation into Fauci’s activities? Why are we paying that genocidal maniac $445,000 a year for his pension?

These issues and more, could be resolved if Congress was not full of RINOS. What is a RINO you ask? A RINO represents his donors, NOT his constituents. A RINO is a Republican In Name only, votes with the Left, and supports Socialist programs. I hope NC wakes up, Tom Tillis is my RINO of the week. Who is yours? Call Tom and tell him what you think.

Today’s show and podcast are dedicated to RINO REMOVAL!!! My 2 guests are Daniel Jens and Gem Balboa. They are giving us a RINO education, and suggestions on how to purge them from Congress. Daniel wrote the RINO Song:

Self-Deporting Illegals: Solution Has Been Ignored Since 1993

Authored by Devvy Kidd Not AI

May 14, 2025

“THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.” —Thomas Paine

It sickens and disgusts me to see those who claim to be Americans have become crazed supporters and doing everything in their power to protect and keep ILLEGAL aliens from being deported. ILLEGAL means just that and the INVASION which took place, as planned, during the illegitimate Biden administration can only be fixed with a permanent solution by the GOP in Congress who need to find their spine.

Let me go back in time because this on-going nightmare could have been avoided had immigration laws been enforced. But, of course, that was never the goal of the shadow government. Points from my column below:

Illegal aliens: declaring war on the enablers, Mine, April 30, 2010: “It’s going to change our lives,” said Emilio Almodovar, a 13-year-old American citizen from Phoenix. “We can’t walk to school any more. We can’t be in the streets anymore without the pigs thinking we’re illegal immigrants.”

“The pigs? All to protect criminals. When was the last time you saw massive demonstrations and mayors come out in support of bank robbers?

“Thieves steal what doesn’t belong to them. The same applies to the 22 million illegal aliens who have invaded our country openly and in-your-face, stealing jobs, natural resources and bankrupting the states in welfare, food stamps and medical care. Not to mention the massive amount of drugs coming across the border as well as gangs and terrorists. Arizona should just roll over and do nothing while their citizens suffer such madness? There is no difference. A thief is a thief.

“Oh, make no mistake about it, illegals are in an uproar and things are likely to get very ugly. Back on March 27, 2006, I wrote a column titled When Illegals Go Berserk, Will Your State be Prepared? Well, the situation is moving into a dangerous direction. Go watch to this harridan shout, “We will not stop! We will take up our shovels and pickaxes and we…we will use them against you! Believe that!”…

Enablers

Should officials of the FDIC be prosecuted? April 19, 2005

“The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation is encouraging banks to sign up illegal aliens in the banking system, calling the growth of the market “a compelling incentive for U.S. banks to enter this largely untapped market.” And the FDIC program demonstrates that unbanked Latin American immigrants can be brought into the financial mainstream.

“But there are clear laws on the books for the integrity of the immigration system. United States criminal code, “It is a crime punishable by 10 years in jail for aiding and abetting someone in this country illegally for commercial gain.” And the Bank Secrecy Act of 1972 makes it clear banks must know their customer, and any illegal activity must be reported to the government.”

Why haven’t these state legislators been indicted? December 21, 2009

“But, what about state legislators who have voted to give these criminals driver’s licenses so they can work? Remember what the usurper in the White House, Obama/Soetoro said, “When I was a state senator in Illinois, I voted to require that illegal aliens get trained, get a license, get insurance to protect public safety. That was my intention. The problem we have here is not driver’s licenses. Undocumented workers do not come here to drive. They’re here to work.”

“They’re here to work? They have no right to even be in this country, much less help themselves to jobs that belong to Americans; violation of immigration law. Comrade Obama wants to reward them by stealing the fruits of your labor to train them, give them driver’s licenses and steal American jobs. This is the morally bankrupt individual people voted for to bring “change” and “hope.” Marxist Obama brought more of the same and worse. Juan McCain stands right next to him on this issue…

“But, what about state legislators who have voted to give these criminals driver’s licenses so they can work? Remember what the usurper in the White House, Obama/Soetoro said, “When I was a state senator in Illinois, I voted to require that illegal aliens get trained, get a license, get insurance to protect public safety. That was my intention. The problem we have here is not driver’s licenses. Undocumented workers do not come here to drive. They’re here to work.”

“This rot has seeped into the state houses as well. Four states of the Union allow these criminals to have driver’s licenses: Hawaii, New Mexico, Washington and Utah. Those state legislatures are aiding and abetting criminals who have violated federal laws. Those legislators and the governors have signaled loud and clear that it’s a good thing to reward those who break the law and rub it in our faces. What happens when an illegal with a Utah driver’s license hits and kills an American citizen in San Diego and then skips across the border? Are we then supposed to thank Utah’s legislature for the carnage they let loose?”

Why hasn’t the Director of the U.S. Census Bureau been indicted? February 2, 2010

“Keeping with the Obama Administration’s mission to conduct the most diverse outreach campaign in history, the director of the U.S. Census Bureau is touring Mexican border towns with high illegal immigrant populations to personally assure that those who fill out questionnaires this spring will not be deported. (Updated note: That way illegals can continue to steal the sweat of YOUR labor by taxing Americans and naturalized Americans into penury.)

“This is a safe thing for everyone to do regardless of your immigration status,” the president’s handpicked census director (Robert Groves) told residents of a renowned illegal alien “colonia” in south Texas this week. He visited several dilapidated makeshift homes off of a dirt road in a Laredo neighborhood called San Carlos to stress that census data will be kept confidential and not turned over to immigration authorities.”

Nebraska Hustles To Keep Illegal Alien Medical Coverage – April 19, 2010

“On the heels of a federal crackdown, lawmakers in Nebraska are scrambling to pass legislation that will allow pregnant illegal immigrant women to continue receiving free, taxpayer-financed medical care. The state has for decades offered the costly perk to pregnant illegal aliens, whose “anchor babies” are automatically United States citizens. However, the federal government recently notified the state that it was illegally determining eligibility for publicly-funded medical care known as Medicaid.”

“Nebraskans: How does it feel to be raped by the enablers in your state legislature?”

County Gives $100k To Group That Aids Illegal Immigrants April 20, 2010 – End but there is a long list of more of this lawlessness in my column.

WHO let all of them get away with this? Congress and DOJ. And who was in charge of the Dept. of InJustice back then? Eric Holder was the Attorney General. Longtime Federal Attorney: Eric Holder Protects Corrupt Prosecutors – “Not only has Mr. Holder failed to make any of the reforms he promised in the wake of his forced dismissal of the indictment against former Senator Ted Stevens, the changes he has made have been for the worse. Absent a dramatic about-face, Holder will leave the Department of Justice littered with corrupted prosecutions and prosecutors, his own contempt of Congress, numerous Supreme Court reversals, and scathing rebukes from federal judges.” Well worth the time to read.

I voted for Donald Trump three times but that doesn’t mean I worship the ground he walks on but I always give credit where credit is deserved. THIS is a slap in the face to all Americans and those like both sets of my grand parents who came here legally. President Trump has proposed paying ILLEGAL aliens to self-deport: Trump signs EO offering illegal migrants ‘exit bonus’ in first-ever self-deportation program – Homeland Security said earlier this week that migrants would be offered a $1,000 stipend each to leave the US

And a free plane ride: ‘Book your free flight now!’ Trump tells illegals how to self-deport, May 9, 2025.

Yes, it would save We the People a lot of money we’ve been raped for over the decades but rewarding illegal aliens isn’t necessary. Oh, I know, weep, weep: Most don’t have the money to return to whatever country they came from but they sure as hell found the money to get here with their expensive fancy phones. In California they get cash no questions asked and that is a fact I found in my research. Violation of federal immigration law.

JUST IN: Kristi Noem Issues Stern Warning as Trump Admin. Launches Landmark Investigation into California Providing Federal Benefits to Illegal Aliens, May 12, 2025

Call the George Soros Foundation or some of these pro-illegal non-profit organizations and tell them to pay your way home because illegal means just that and if you entered this country illegally, you are subject to being deported.

Of course, many of the scum bags in Congress are screaming their brains out (what little they might have) to protect illegal aliens. That sow in the red outfit needs to be charged: “Definitely on the Table” – DHS Spox Says Members of Congress May Soon Be Arrested For BODYSLAMMING Female ICE Agent (VIDEO), May 10, 2025. The videos are proof and both of those congress rats need to be charged with assault on federal agents. Got that DOJ? Those maggots don’t give a damn about the people. It’s all about future votes for the Democrat/Communist Party USA. There’s More Footage of the Dem Insurrection at a NJ ICE Detention Center. They Assaulted Federal Agents, May 11, 2025

When Eisenhower deported 1.3 MILLION illegals there was none of this photo op crap and elected officials aiding and abetting illegals. When liar and cheat illegitimate president, Hussein Obama, deported 3 million illegals where were all these weeping AOC’s?

If I sound cruel or mean, I’ve watched and written about this issue for more than two decades while Republicans did nothing to stop the invasion which went into full gear the minute illegitimate president and life long career criminal, Joe Biden, was sworn into office. That is a FACT. Oh, a lot of BS during endless hearings but the GOP held the majority in Congress three times with a GOP president and could have permanently fixed the problem just like they can again now.

A Bill: Stop all Public Welfare in Any Form for Illegal Aliens, Mine August 24, 2014. I was referring to a bill introduced by career crook (now deceased) Dirty Harry Reid [D-NV) that would stop all welfare at any level for illegal aliens. Go read his press release at the top of the article where he hammers against illegal aliens:

“Safeguards like welfare and free medical care are in place to boost Americans in need of short-term assistance. These programs were not meant to entice freeloaders and scam artists from around the world. Even worse, Americans have seen heinous crimes committed by individuals who are here illegally.”

“His statements were to announce a bill he introduced back then titled the Immigration Stabilization Act [S.1351]. I’m betting it was not written by Dirty Harry, but by lawyers who know what they’re doing and the sure to come legal challenges. It covers the whole gambit of turning off the trillions spent over the past 28 years since Reagan sold us out. There were 3 cosponsors for the bill. Then Dirty Harry did a 180 and became a champion of illegals.

I sent page one of the bill with a letter to more than a dozen GOP senators and dozens of GOP House reps over the years who claim during boob tube interviews how we have to close the border! The last one was to Rep. Chip Roy [R-TX]. After Trump was elected in 2016, I sent it to him twice and twice to Stephen Miller at the WH. I’ve never received ONE SINGLE RESPONSE FROM ANY OF THEM. Trump I understand as he has staff who open the mail.

And here we are today with partisan hack judges siding with illegals for “rights” they aren’t entitled to because they came to our country illegally. AND YOU AND I HAVE BEEN FOOTING THE BILL FOR THEIR LAWYERS.

Well, what a shock two weeks ago when Michael Berry on his morning show on a Lubbock, TX radio station actually mentioned Harry Reid and his bill to stop all welfare (began with Prop 187, 1994 in California) for illegals because it is the big magnet. Unfortunately, he didn’t devote a decent amount of time explaining the bill because it has a very important section:

TITLE X–CITIZENSHIP

SEC. 1001. BASIS OF CITIZENSHIP CLARIFIED.

“In the exercise of its powers under section 5 of the Fourteenth Article of Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, the Congress has determined and hereby declares that any person born after the date of enactment of this title to a mother who is neither a citizen of the United States nor admitted to the United States as a lawful permanent resident, and which person is a national or citizen of another country of which either of his or her natural parents is a national or citizen, or is entitled upon application to become a national or citizen of such country, shall be considered as born subject to the jurisdiction of that foreign country and not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States within the meaning of section 1 of such Article and shall therefore not be a citizen of the United States or of any State solely by reason of physical presence within the United States at the moment of birth.”

The U.S. Supreme Court is going to hear oral arguments on the scam called anchor babies who are NOT U.S. citizens on May 15, 2025. I hope the Solicitor General hammers on the history of the Fourteenth Amendment – as in read the damn Congressional Record – and the intent of Congress at the time. No doubt the Marxists on the court will vote in favor of the anchor baby scam and it will not surprise me if Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett votes with them. ‘Bombshell’: John Roberts slapped with lawsuit, accused of ‘unconstitutional shadow agency’, May 6, 2025

Protecting the meaning and Value of American Citizenship, Trump Executive Order, Jan. 20, 2025 (Text of Trump’s EO) – It was covered by FOX news stating it “will almost certainly face an immediate legal challenge from civil rights and immigration activist groups…” Of course, and that’s just what happened and what the “Supreme Court” will hear oral arguments on the 15^th.

Supporters of lawlessness and illegals regardless of country of origin don’t give a damn. All Hell Broke Loose When ICE Showed Up in This Town, May 11, 2025. Here comes the mob ready to assault federal agents. The woman is here illegally so her only right is to be taken into custody and shipped out of here. Too bad if she owns a house or a car or has a job. She has ZERO right to remain in our country. DHS says Massachusetts city council member ‘incited chaos’ as ICE arrested ‘violent criminal alien’, May 11, 2025

Minors of illegals: Blame your parents for violating OUR immigration laws. Separation of families: Go with parents because you should be with your mom and dad (if there’s one around), but if you’re here illegally, you are going to get deported.

What needs to happen. Asylum seekers are given 30 days to go back to Mexico to wait for a court date; 93% of those cases are thrown out. Scamming the system. Court Blocks Remain in Mexico Reimplementation, April 17, 2025. But it was fine during Trump’s first term which caused thousands to head to Mexico to wait for court dates. Oh, no, some damn partisan judge now says no. BS. So, once again you, me and our children will pay for asylum seekers life styles while they wait for court dates as far out as five years. We are little better than indentured servants to support illegals by taxing us to death.

Republicans in the House and Senate need to introduce a bill that stops ALL welfare, federal or state in ANY form. Employers will be fined $25,000 for each illegal picked up while working for their company. Get it passed so Trump can sign it. Know what will happen? Not a decade of ICE raids and potential violence such as what happened at the town mentioned above, but we will see MILLIONS of illegals self-deport to Mexico and Canada where they crossed the border. Let those countries deal with the disaster they created by allowing train loads and caravans of illegals to our borders.

Not to mention our dedicated ICE agents fighting against the drug cartels while the ‘new’ female president of Mexico hides her cowardice behind ‘strong words’.

I don’t know about you but I am sick and fed up with sissies and weak-kneed cowards in Congress and state legislatures who allowed the invasion under Biden, not to mention giving out driver’s licenses and hiring illegals. Fed up with partisan judges and cowardly judges with their BS about due process for illegals who are NOT legal citizens of our country. Fed up with the death and destruction and being taxed to death to support the freeloaders, terrorists, vicious gang members, criminals and the world’s trash.

No doubt such a bill if signed into law would immediately be challenged by pro-open border lawyers with more lawsuits, but maybe not. As I said in my column from 2014 about stopping all welfare, I don’t believe for a second it was written by Dirty Harry Reid but attorneys (obviously Democrats) to withstand any court challenges. Got that Republicans in Congress? (In my 2014 column I did recommend a few changes and wrote new sections for Reid’s bill which you can read here.

DEMAND this from Congress and stay on them with phone calls, faxes, emails.

The Culture Is The Church’s Report Card

By Bradlee Dean

May 14, 2025

“Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt has lost its savour, wherewith it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and to be trodden under foot of men.” – Matthew 5:13

Not too long ago, I took the time to get acquainted with the local law enforcement as to what’s been happening locally within the county.

I asked this person what his take was concerning the fruit of the church (Matthew 7:16–20), and in response, he said that they were great. I then asked what was being taught in the public schools locally. To this question, he just looked at me. So, I proceeded to answer my own question.

I told him that they are indoctrinating the children with an abortion agenda (Proverbs 6:17), evolution, and the homosexual agenda, and the history books are being changed every 3 to 5 years. The young people are literally being subjected to everything and protected from nothing. This is how good of a job that churches are doing. Culture is the church’s report card.

As a matter of fact, the young people are asking the question as to where the love is that the church overseers talk so much about.

George Barna, from the Barna research group, found that after surveying the said pastors from across the country as to why they were not preaching against the sins of the nation, what he found was that when he asked the pastors about all the key issues of the day, 90% of them told him that, yes, the Bible speaks to every one of these issues. Then they were asked if they were teaching their people what the Bible says about those issues – And the numbers drop… to less than 10% of pastors who say they will speak to it.

When researchers asked those pastors what else they are willing to do to get their people active in their political process, Barna said, it’s almost nothing.

“So, the thing that struck me has been that when we talk about the separation of church and state (there is no such thing found within any American founding documents), it’s that churches have separated themselves from the activities of the state—and that’s to the detriment of the state and its people,” stated the researcher.

Why the disconnect? According to Barna, the answer is simple. He suggests asking pastors how someone would know if their church is successful—which he did.

“There are five factors that the vast majority of pastors turn to (when asked that question),” he explained.

He found that the number one reason was that they cared more about attendance, and the number two reason was their offerings.

The rest of their top priorities were the number of programs they had in place, staff, and, believe it or not, the square footage of what they call their churches.

“Now all of those things are good measures, except for one tiny fact: Jesus didn’t die for any of them,” Barna continued. “What I am suggesting is (those pastors) won’t probably get involved with politics because it is very controversial. Controversy keeps people from being in the seats, controversy keeps people from giving money, from attending programs. As they look at things, their tendency is to say, well, that’s not my part of my mission; My mission is to bring in more people and to get them to understand certain things that I feel that they should know.”

Barna also thinks it has something to do with the training of pastors.

“When you look at what they get in Bible school or in the seminary, they are not taught to get people engaged in these particular issues,” he shared. “They are taught just to exegete (exposition; explanation; interpretation) scriptures; they are taught something about the history of where those scriptures came from—but they are not prepared.”

The prince of preachers, Charles Spurgeon, said, “A church that does not exist to reclaim heathenism, to fight evil, to destroy air, to put down falsehood, a church that does not exist to take the side of the poor, to denounce injustice, and to hold up righteousness, is a church that has no right to be. Not for yourself, oh church, do you exist any more than Christ existed for Himself?”

So, in conclusion, I ask you, what is your church doing to combat the evils of today? Pastors, are you taking a stand in preaching the uncompromising truth from the word of God (though controversial it may be) that slays sin and upholds righteousness? If not, then you need to repent! You are not called to people-please or to compromise; you are called to be a faithful servant of Jesus Christ.

To Allow Opt Outs or Not to Allow Opt Outs, That is the Question

By Paul Engel

May 13, 2025

Who controls your children’s education?
Can schools hide what they are teaching the children?
Are opt-outs optional or mandatory?

The question of if and when parents should be allowed to opt their children out of certain activities and curriculum in public schools has been raging for quite a while. With our society’s rapidly changing standards, the need for parents to oversee and control the upbringing of their children has become even more important. Yet the Montgomery County School Board decided that in one area of instruction, story time, parents of children as young as three-years old would not be allowed to opt their children out of religiously objectionable material. Did the School Board violate the First Amendment or maybe another one?

Background

The length of oral arguments, at two and a half hours, should give you an idea of the importance both the attorneys and the justices placed on this case. Because of the amount of content covered during these arguments, this will be a long article.

We start with the question brought to the court.

Respondent Montgomery County Board of Education requires elementary school teachers to read their students storybooks celebrating gender transitions, Pride parades, and same-sex playground romance. The storybooks were chosen to disrupt “cisnormativity” and “either/or thinking” among students. The Board’s own principals objected that the curriculum was “not appropriate for the intended age group,” presented gender ideology as “fact,” “sham[ed]” students with contrary opinions, and was “dismissive of religious beliefs.” The Board initially allowed parents to opt their kids out—but then reversed course, saying that no opt-outs would be permitted and that parents would not even be notified when the storybooks were read.

There are two points we need to keep in mind before we proceed. First, it is the right of parents to control the upbringing of their children. That includes both their academic and religious training. Second, while aschools have some limited power In Loco Parentis or “in place of the parents” when the students are in school, that power does not supersede parent’s rights to oversee the training of their children.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Petition For A Writ Of Certiorari

Petitioners filed suit, not challenging the curriculum, but arguing that compelling their elementary-age children to participate in instruction contrary to their parents’ religious convictions violated the Free Exercise Clause.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Petition For A Writ Of Certiorari

Notice, the parents are not trying to change the school curriculum, but only to be allowed to exercise their right to determine what is appropriate for the religious education of their child. Personally, I would have used a different argument, for several reasons, but I will get into that later.

Ultimately, the question before the court is:

Do public schools burden parents’ religious exercise when they compel elementary school children to participate in instruction on gender and sexuality against their parents’ religious convictions and without notice or opportunity to opt out?

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Petition For A Writ Of Certiorari

ORAL ARGUMENT OF ERIC S. BAXTER ON BEHALF OF THE PETITIONERS

As always, arguments start with the attorney for the petitioner.

BAXTER: Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the Court:

Parents everywhere care about how their young children are taught sexuality and gender identity. That’s why nearly every public school in the country that provides sexuality education requires parental consent first. But Montgomery County is an extreme outlier, insisting that every elementary school student must be instructed that, among other controversial matters, doctors guessed at their sex when they were born and that anyone who disagrees is hurtful and unfair.

Forcing Petitioners to submit their children to such instruction violates their religious beliefs and directly interferes with their ability to direct the religious upbringing of their children.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

One of the points that will be brought up is that some parents objected to the curriculum for other than religious reasons. This is one of the reasons I would have argued differently.

The Board claims this straightforward burden analysis will invite chaos. But schools nationwide have long applied expansive opt-out policies without significant difficulty, including the Board itself, which stills allows opt-outs for choir students who object to singing religious songs or students who object to certain storybooks, such as one that portrays an image of the Prophet Muhammad. Exempting students for some religious reasons but not others cannot be squared with the First Amendment.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

This is the common, and I believe flawed, First Amendment jurisprudence currently enforced by our federal courts. This cannot be a First Amendment issue since Congress did not pass this as a law. That does not mean this isn’t a freedom of religion case, just that it does not come from the First Amendment.

The decision of the Montgomery Board of Education to stop allowing opt-outs has had a significant impact on many families.

The Board does not dispute that under its theory, it could compel instruction using pornography and parents would have no rights. The First Amendment demands more. Parents, not school boards, should have the final say on such religious matters.

I welcome the Court’s questions.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Before we get into those questions, I’d like to look at the other arguments.

SARAH M. HARRIS, ESQ. as amicus curiae, supporting the Petitioners

Next up is Sarah Harris, Principal Deputy Solicitor General for the United States, arguing in support of the petitioners.

HARRIS: Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the Court:

When the government forces people to choose between violating sincerely held religious beliefs or foregoing a public benefit, that burdens religious exercise.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

You’ll find that this idea of “burden” is a recurring theme, especially during questions. The First Amendment prohibits Congress from passing a law that prohibits the free exercise of religion, but how far can Congress go before it prohibits? The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary defines burden as to load or oppress. By adding an extra burden to the exercise of religion, the courts have maintained that is sufficient to trigger the First Amendment’s prohibition.

Here, Montgomery County offers a free public education to parents only if their children use books featuring same-sex relationships and transgender issues. That burdens parents of multiple faiths whose religious duty is to shield their young children from such content.

Public schools routinely accommodate those burdens with opt-outs, which respect families of many faiths and backgrounds. Several states allow opt-outs from any learning material on religious grounds. Montgomery County allows many other opt-outs, just not here.

I welcome the Court’s questions.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Montgomery County offers “free” public education. Actually, since these public schools are funded largely by local taxes, Montgomery County offers education paid for primarily by the residents of the county. As such, that makes it a “public benefit.” By denying said benefit to people based on their religious beliefs, the county is burdening these families by requiring either that they compromise their faith or go somewhere else at their own expense. Also, since Montgomery County seems to be the only county in the state, possibly the nation, that refuses to offer opt-outs for this kind of instruction, and since the county allows opt-outs for other religious reasons, this seems to be a targeted attempt at indoctrination.

As you might expect, the Montgomery County Board of Education does not agree.

ORAL ARGUMENT OF ALAN E. SCHOENFELD ON BEHALF OF THE RESPONDENTS

Representing Thomas Taylor, Superintendent of the Montgomery County Board of Education, along with the other respondents, is Alan Schoenfeld.

SCHOENFELD: Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the Court:

Every day in public elementary school classrooms across the country, children are taught ideas that conflict with their family’s religious beliefs. Children encounter real and fictional women who forego motherhood and work outside the home. Children read books valorizing our nation’s veterans who fought in violent wars. And children in Montgomery County read books introducing them to LGBT characters. Each of these things is deeply offensive to some people of faith, but learning about them is not a legally cognizable burden on free exercise.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Funny, I don’t know many religions that prohibit being a mother or working outside the home. I do know people who prefer these things, and of course it is a tenant of Roman Catholic doctrine to encourage natural motherhood, but does that give the state the authority to say children must be taught these things? The question isn’t can the state teach these things, but can the state force these things to be taught and that they are right and good? Is this force a burden on a parent’s free exercise of religion?

Adopting Petitioners’ view of the case would conscript courts into playing the role of school board, a task for which this Court has recognized they are ill suited. And a constitutional requirement to provide opt-outs from anything someone finds religiously offensive would mean public schools must find alternative classrooms, supervision for young students, and substitute lessons each time a potentially offensive topic arises. That is not what the Constitution requires, particularly given the special characteristics of the school environment.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Actually, that is exactly what the Constitution of the United States requires of Congress. Public schools already find alternative classrooms, supervision, and lessons for other religious objects, so why would story time be such a burden to the Montgomery County Schools?

Contrary to what Mr. Schoenfeld has said, the burden would be on the schools not the courts. A simple, you must accommodate the religious beliefs of both students and parents, does not engage the courts unless the schools refuse to do so.

This Court has made clear that exposure to offensive ideas does not burden free exercise, and it has held that the government is not required to do its daily work in ways that make it easier for parents to raise their children in the faith.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

This idea of exposure vs instruction took up a lot of time during questioning. So much so that I have an entire section on it.

The books at issue here, five among hundreds in the curriculum, are meant to foster mutual respect in a pluralistic school community. MCPS makes explicitly clear that students do not need to accept, agree with, or affirm anything they read or anything about their classmates’ beliefs or lives. The lesson is that students should treat their peers with respect.

I welcome the Court’s questions.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Again, it is not the quantity of objectionable material that is the problem, but the forcing of students to consume it.

Exposure vs Instruction

As I mentioned above, the question of exposure vs instruction was a central topic during questioning. Let’s look at some of the highlights.

JUSTICE THOMAS: Could you spend a minute or two to explain how the — why the record shows that the children are more than merely exposed to the — these sorts of things in the storybooks? …

BAXTER: No. We know that the — the teachers are required to use the books. When the books were first introduced in August of 2022, the Board suggested they be used five times before the end of the year. That’s in the — that’s at 273a in the cert appendix. One of the schools, the Sherwood School, in June, for Pride Month, said that they were going to read one book each day to celebrate Pride Month. The Board’s own testimony through Superintendent Hazel said that the books must be used as part of the instruction and that, at 650 — 642 in the appendix, that discussion will ensue.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

It was not as if these books were in the school library or on the classroom bookshelves and available to the students. The Board not only suggested they be used multiple times is one school year, but one school made a point of reading them to celebrate Pride Month. That’s the celebration of deviant sexual behavior, including parades and other events consisting of people in lewd dress often engaging in suggestive if not pornographic activities. Why did the Board want this as mandatory instruction?

That was the entire point of withdrawing the opt-outs and removing even notifying parents. They’re not even allowed to know. The Board said in that statement it was so that every student would be taught from the inclusivity storybooks. And also, the district court transcript at 63 has counsel’s admission that there have — some of the books have to be used and it can be more.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

The obvious point was not merely to expose children as young as 3 to 4 years old to these ideas, but to instruct them to both celebrate and normalize them.

Justice Sotomayor and Mr. Baxter got into quite an exchange about the topic of exposure vs coercion.

JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR: Let’s go back. Is it generally that the mere exposure — haven’t we made very clear that the mere exposure to things that you object to is not coercion?

BAXTER: It would really depend on the individual religious beliefs. Here, for example, our Catholic clients —

JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR: So what you’re saying is that the exposure of children to the fact that two people are getting married is coercion? That two people of the same sex are getting married is coercion?

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Justice Sotomayor sounds more like a prosecuting attorney on cross-examination than a justice of the Supreme Court. Of course, she was not the only one to interrupt Mr. Baxter, but you should get the flavor of this line of questioning. She also seems to ignore the fact that looking at pictures was not all that was included in this curriculum.

JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR: For reality’s sake, you see interfaith couples all the time walking around. You see interracial couples walking — walking around. You see women on this Court in positions of work outside the home.

BAXTER: And no one here is raising a — a burden in that situation. We’re far beyond that where our indoctrination —

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

The point that both Justice Sotomayor and Mr. Baxter seem to miss is that there is a difference between exposure to something as you go about your business, and being compelled by law and policy to expose your children to it. Furthermore, as we’ll see, this was not mere exposure, but indoctrination since the teachers were encouraged to both make these books part of the instruction and to correct those who disagree with their message. Take for example this interchange between Justice Barret and Mr. Schoenfeld for the respondents.

this is an instruction to the teacher, “If a student observes that a girl can only like boys because she’s a girl, the Board suggested that the teacher disrupt the student’s either/or thinking by saying something like: Actually, people of any gender can like whoever they like.”

You know, or, on the transgender issue, “When we’re born, people make a guess about our gender and label us boy or girl based on our body parts. Sometimes they’re right; sometimes they’re wrong. When someone’s transgender, they guess wrong. When someone’s cisgender, they guessed right.”

So, you know, it’s kind of along those things, which seem to be more about influence, right, and shaping of ideas and less about communicating respect because it’s less about communicating respect for those, you know, who are transgender, who are gay, and more about how to think about sexuality.

What is your take on that and how we think about this, whether this really is just about exposure and civility and learning to function in a multicultural and diverse society and how much of it is about influence or, as Petitioners would say, indoctrination?

SCHOENFELD: Certainly. I think what you quoted, Your Honor, are suggested responses or proposed responses for age-appropriate ways to respond to questions that may arise in response to these texts or otherwise.

The same response about disrupt the either/or thinking is given when someone says dresses are for girls, boys can’t paint their nails, those are boy toys. These are simply ways of contextualizing the information that’s being learned and to give students the predicates for being able to respect each other.

The school — the — the express directive from the school is you don’t need to understand your peers, you don’t need to agree with them, you don’t need to affirm with them, but you do need to treat them with respect.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Except the expressed message directive from the school is that one side is right and the other is wrong. The instruction isn’t, “There are people who believe this, and we should treat them the way we want to be treated.” Rather it’s promoting these agendas by claiming they are right and opposition is, by definition, wrong. To a young child, this is the equivalent of telling them their parents are wrong. How can that not be indoctrination?

Then Justice Alito got into the questioning.

JUSTICE ALITO: Yeah, the book has — the book has a clear message, and a lot of people think it’s a good message, and maybe it is a good message, but it’s a message that a lot of people who hold on to traditional religious beliefs don’t agree with.

I don’t think anybody can read that and say, well, this is just telling children that there are occasions when men marry other men, that Uncle Bobby gets married to his boyfriend, Jamie, and everybody’s happy and everything is — you know, it portrays this — everyone accepts this except for the little girl, Chloe, who has reservations about it. But her mother corrects her: No, you shouldn’t have any reservations about this. …

JUSTICE ALITO: It has a clear moral message. And it may be a good message. It’s just a message that a lot of religious people disagree with.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Yes, these books have clear moral messages. And contrary to what is being argued by Mr. Schoenfeld, this is not a case of mere exposure, but coercion and indoctrination into the messages these books promote.

Justice Jackson tried to come up with an analogy that would fit her understanding of the situation.

I’m just trying to find an analogous public — benefit outside of the school context and ask you whether your position is that it substantially burdens the rights of religious parents if there are advertisements on a public bus that say things that they don’t want their children exposed to.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

I think a better analogy to what the schools are doing would be to consider how the parent instructs the child to deal with the advertising. A parent could teach their children to simply turn their gaze away from such advertisements while the school is effectively saying, “No, you must look, because it is right.”

Justice Gorsuch brought up another point.

JUSTICE GORSUCH: Yeah. Okay. And your — you’ve included these in the English language curriculum rather than the human sexuality curriculum to influence students, is that fair? That’s what the district court found. Do you agree with that?

SCHOENFELD: I think, to the extent the district court found that it was to influence, it was to influence them towards civility, the natural consequence of being exposed to —

JUSTICE GORSUCH: Whatever, but to influence them.

SCHOENFELD: In the manner that I just mentioned, yes.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Yes, even the attorney for the Board admits this curriculum is to influence the children. However, as we’ve already seen, it is not toward civility but acceptance.

Are Opt-Outs Unworkable?

The Montgomery County Board of Education claims that they stopped offering opt-outs for this curriculum because they found it administratively unworkable.

JUSTICE THOMAS: Couldn’t you solve those differences simply by restoring the opt-out?

SCHOENFELD: Your Honor, I — I think, in this case, the record makes clear that the school district did try to honor the opt-out, and at some point, it became infeasible. Certainly, there are circumstances where the right decision a school board might make in view of the particular needs of a community is to offer the opt-out. It’s a different question from whether it’s constitutionally required.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

But during Chief Justice Roberts questioning of Mr. Baxter, administration of the opt-outs didn’t seem to be as big a deal as Mr. Schoenfeld would later state.

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: The school board alleges that the opt-out system became unworkable. Is that a — is that a factor we should take into account in deciding whether it could be required?

BAXTER: Certainly, there —

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Does it have to be required?

BAXTER: — there could be situations where it could be unworkable. The Board never raised that until after this litigation commenced. When they announced the withdrawal, they said it was because every student needed to read the inclusivity books. When they produced documents in response to an open records request, there was no mention of it not being workable.

When parents met with the superintendents — this is at the — in the Hisham Garti declaration at JA 44 — the reason given there was inclusivity. There was no mention of administrability until we get to — until the litigation’s been filed, and even then, all the Board was able to come up with was the argument that in — in one instance in one school, there were dozens of students who opted out, where, if the average school size in Montgomery County is 700 students across at least a dozen classrooms, you’re talking maybe one student per classroom. That hardly compares with the one in eight students who are opted out for individual education programs, students — 15 percent of students in Montgomery County who are taking English for speakers of a second language, the Board’s own opt-outs that are required from the same instruction, required by state law to be opted out when the — when the same books are read in health class.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

If the administration of these opt-outs is so onerous, why was it not mentioned when their cancelation was announced, in the documents produced, or even when meeting with the parents? Could it be that there’s more to this administrative problem than meets the eye? Justice Thomas dug into this a little deeper.

JUSTICE THOMAS: You — in — in, I think, chatting with Justice Kavanaugh, you mentioned that the opt-out was unworkable because there were so many students who opted out. What did you mean by that?

SCHOENFELD: So the — the record is limited on this point, but the Hazel declaration talks about the fact that principals reported to the School Board that there was high absenteeism and gave the example of one school where dozens of students were opting out.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Again, the problem the Board saw that led them to cancel these opt-outs is the number of students opting out. Which I think points us to another question. Why are there are so many opt-outs of this curriculum? Could it be that this curriculum was so offensive to so many people that the only way for the Board to teach this nonsense was for them to force it down the student’s throats? That is not teaching respect and kindness for others, but totalitarian conformity to the government’s views.

Age Appropriate

Justice Alito and Mr. Baxter had an interesting discussion about age appropriateness.

What are the ages of the children who are involved here?

BAXTER: These books were approved for pre-K, which in Montgomery County can start as early as 3 if they’re going to turn 4 that fall.

JUSTICE ALITO: And it goes up to what?

BAXTER: The — the books that we’ve all talked about go through grade 6.

JUSTICE ALITO: All right. So you’re talking about children maybe in the age of 5 to 11 or 4 to 11. Now would you agree that at a certain age — at that — at a certain age, students are capable of understanding this point, which probably is not a point that can be understood by a four- or five-year old, and that is that my teacher, who is generally telling me that certain things are right and that certain things are wrong, isn’t necessarily going to be correct on everything? It is possible for me to disagree with him or her on certain subjects? Would you agree that there comes a point when a student is able to make that distinction?

BAXTER: That’s right. And many of our clients’ objections would be diminished as their children got older. But, here, we’re in a situation where Montgomery County’s own principals objected that these books were inappropriate for the age, that they were dismissive of religion and shaming toward children who disagree. The Board itself withdrew two of the books for what it said were content concerns because it finally agreed that what parents and petition — and its own principals were saying was accurate.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Most of us would agree that there are topics that are not appropriate for children as young as three or four years of age. But who determines what those are? More importantly, how granular is that decision? Because while we are dealing with classrooms of children, each and every one of them mature at different rates. If it’s appropriate for 50% of a class is that good enough? Should the teacher be the one determining what is appropriate for a child of a certain age? Should the Board? And what about the 50% of students who are not prepared to deal with a certain subject? Should they be harmed because the Board wants this education promoted?

Speaking of this education, why is the Board of Education working so hard to force children to learn about these subjects?

JUSTICE ALITO: Yeah. And one final factor that may distinguish this particular case from some of the others that you have been asked to express a view about, and you did touch on this, is the fact that it concerns sex and — and gender and that the — the Maryland legislature itself has recognized these subjects raise special concerns and has provided for an opt-out from the health classes where these matters are discussed.

BAXTER: That’s right. And, currently, from — in Montgomery County, you can opt out from the very same instruction during health class, but then you’re required to stay during — during story time.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Isn’t that interesting? You can opt out of instruction during health class, but when the exact same subject comes up in story time the Board says no.

Mr. Baxter pointed out an interesting incongruity in the Board’s argument.

And then also a question about when sex ed starts. The Board’s and the — the state’s mandated regulation is in the record. It’s at pages 62 through 83 of the Joint Appendix. There, you start in pre-K with instruction that parents can — or families can come in all different forms with all different kinds of parents, different kinds of gender identities and expressions. The same things that are being taught through the school — schoolbooks, you can opt out when it comes up during health class but not during story time, which — in which there’s no instruction about how to use these — these books to develop characters, a narrative arc, or anything else that you would expect in an English class.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

The question of the age appropriateness of starting sex ed in pre-K is one thing. Hiding it in so-called English curriculum is something else.

Go Somewhere Else

Justice Jackson made an interesting point, but not the one I think she intended.

In that situation, I guess I’m struggling to see how it burdens a parent’s religious exercise if the school teaches something that the parent disagrees with. You have a choice. You don’t have to send your kid to that school. You can put them in another situation. You can home-school them.

How is it a burden on the parent if they have the option to send their kid elsewhere?

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Talk about living in an ivory tower. Justice Jackson acts as if sending your child to a private school or home-schooling them is a simple matter. Apparently she doesn’t realize what’s involved in either of those choices.

BAXTER: Well, Your Honor, the world we live in in this case is that most parents don’t have that option. They have two working parents. They can’t afford to send to private school.

JUSTICE JACKSON: Yes, as a matter of practicality, absolutely.

BAXTER: And that’s the reality for our parents.

JUSTICE JACKSON: I understand. But, in so many other constitutional doctrines, we don’t focus on whether people actually can afford to protect their rights.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

What’s odd to me is that nowhere else is the right to protect your religious freedom from government infringement based on whether or not you can afford to do so. This court has repeatedly stated that you cannot be deprived of a public benefit because of your religious beliefs. But according to Justice Jackson, public school is different?

And what I guess I’m worried about is a world in which, when there is an option to send your kid somewhere else, it seems to me that these parents would be dictating what this school does in the way that you say our cases say they can’t do, right?

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Tell me, Justice Jackson, will the parents who have left Montgomery County schools because of their opt-out police be reimbursed for the taxes they’ve already paid to support that school? It’s not merely whether they can afford other options; they have been taxed under threat of fines and jail to pay for these schools.

Justice Alito got into a similar discussion with Mr. Schoenfeld.

So you have a case where some of the plaintiffs are devout Muslims. They say: We have a solemn religious obligation to raise our children as Muslims, and that involves certain moral principles that we want to instill in our children, and the school is teaching our children moral principles that are in conflict with ours.

And we pay taxes to support the public schools, but we don’t have enough money to send our children to private schools. And one of us can’t stay home and provide home-schooling. So we just want to be able to take our children out of the part of the instruction that we find objectionable.

And what’s your response to that? Your response to that is just: Well, it’s too bad, all right? This is the public school and the public school can teach what the public school wants. And you don’t like that. Well, you can take your — you can send your — your children to private schools.

SCHOENFELD: There’s no indifference to the religious beliefs of the Petitioners in this case. The school did what it could to accommodate those views. There are simply circumstances in which what the Petitioner or what any plaintiff recognizes that a burden on their religious belief is not a legally cognizable one given legal and practical justifications.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Except the Board never mentioned the administration of the opt-out until the law suit, and the main complaint regarding administering the opt-out is the number of people opting out. Does that sound like respect for the parent’s religious beliefs? Not to Justice Alito.

JUSTICE ALITO: Well, it’s nice that you say that they respect the parents’ religious beliefs, but, basically, your answer is it’s just too bad.

…

JUSTICE ALITO: You’ve got to send your school — your children to school. You can’t afford to send them to any place except a public school, unlike, you know, most of the lawyers who argue cases here, they can send their children to — to private schools, and they think that that’s the way most of the world is. But it’s not. It’s just too bad.

SCHOENFELD: My answer is that public schools are democratically controlled for a reason. The School Board here is democratically elected. The entire process of adopting this curriculum is open and transparent. These books are on review for 30 days before they’re even made part of the curriculum. There is then a multi-level appeal process. There is plenty of opportunity for parental insight.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Except neither the United States, nor the State of Maryland are democracies, they are constitutional republics. And this is a perfect example of why we are not a democracy. Democracies allow the majority to overrule the rights of the minority. Simply because a majority of the people of Montgomery County chose board members who wish to promote a sexual agenda on children as young as three years old does not deprive their parents of the right to public benefits without compromising their religious beliefs.

As Mr. Baxter pointed out in his rebuttal, this was hardly a democratic process.

This was not a democratic process. Withdrawing these overnight, comparing parents to xenophobes and white supremacists, this can’t be part of the — of the democratic process.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Under Maryland law, parents are compelled to send their children to public schools unless they ask for an exemption. And now, when everyone else, religious or otherwise, is allowed to benefit from these schools, Justice Jackson and the Montgomery County Board of Education wants to bar the door just as George Wallace did with the University of Alabama in 1963, simply because their religion does not promote this sexualization of children. How can that not be a burden on the free exercise of religion?

Actions of the Board

Another concern that Mr. Baxter brought up was how the board treated the reactions of the parents.

JUSTICE KAVANAUGH: But then complaints were raised, right?

BAXTER: That’s right. Hundreds of parents complained. These were mostly — according to news articles, mostly families from Muslim faith and Ethiopian Orthodox who were objecting.

When they — when they spoke to the Board, the Board accused them of using their religious beliefs as another reason to hate, accused a young Muslim girl of parroting her parents’ dogma, and then accused the parents of aligning with racist xenophobes and white supremacists.

And so, again, there’s no question in this case that there is a burden, that it was imposed with animosity, and that it’s discriminating against our clients because of their religious beliefs.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Could it be that the board was less concerned about the administration of these opt-outs than the religious nature of them? After all, claiming that a young girl’s parents are racist xenophobes and white supremacists because they object to their daughter being sexualized at a young age seems to be a deflection. The parents weren’t complaining about the race of their characters in the books, but the lessons they were teaching their daughter.

Justice Gorsuch got Mr. Schoenfeld to admit the Board’s bias against religion.

JUSTICE GORSUCH: So you take the view that even if you have a non-neutral policy, and even if it was motivated by hostility toward religion, and even though the parents claim a burden, you still have to somehow meet an additional objective substantial burden test?

SCHOENFELD: Correct.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

Conclusion

As I stated at the outset, I would not have argued this as a First Amendment, or even a freedom of religion case. As Justice Thomas found out during his questioning of Mr. Schoenfeld:

JUSTICE THOMAS: Was that because they found the materials objectionable or — for religious reasons or what?

SCHOENFELD: So there are two different paragraphs of her declaration that speak to this fact.

In that paragraph, it doesn’t specify. Elsewhere in the declaration it makes clear that many of the opt-out requests were not religious in nature and parents objected, for example, to the age-appropriateness of materials, have nothing to do with religious prohibitions.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

There are apparently many parents, and even school principals, who object to this curriculum for non-religious reasons. Should their concerns be ignored?

To me, this is a parents’ rights issue. The Montgomery County Board of Education is depriving these parents of the liberty to raise their children as they see fit, violating the Due Process clauses of both the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. Arguing this as a Due Process case, rather than a Freedom of Religion case, would have eliminated all of the questions of sincerity as well as the concerns about entailing the courts in religious issues.

Yet there’s another issue to consider. It should be obvious that it is illegal for government, in the form of public schools, to force instruction upon students that violates the religious beliefs of their parents. But when a school sees a large number of opt-outs, it should be a sign that there is a problem with that curriculum. Perhaps that signal should be used by the schools to pull the curriculum? As Mr. Baxter said in his rebuttal.

And it somewhat flips the Bill of Rights on its head if we’re worried more about extreme examples that don’t happen to protect the government from the parents as opposed to parent — protecting the parents’ fundamental rights to direct the religious upbringing of their children.

Tamer Mahmoud, et al. v. Thomas W. Taylor, et al., – Oral Arguments

I try not to predict what the court will do. I can only hope they will protect the parent’s fundamental right to direct the upbringing of their children.

Qatari Funding of “Choices Program” in American Schools

By Kelleigh Nelson

May 13, 2025

For far too long, a staggering amount of foreign money has flowed into our colleges and universities with little to no transparency or oversight. —Caitlin Sutherland, executive director of Americans for Public Trust

By pumping cash into campuses across the country, American adversaries are able to “stifle academic freedom,” spread propaganda, and gain access to valuable intellectual property. China pursues this strategy aggressively. —Rep. Michael Baumgartner (R-WA)

The current system has allowed foreign adversaries to infiltrate our colleges and universities. Congress is taking action because it is imperative that we hold these universities — which have turned a blind eye for too long — accountable and bring to light malignant foreign entities lurking in our schools. —Rep. Tim Walberg (R-MI)

Foreign government contributions to universities almost always come with strings attached or, at the very least, ulterior motives. —Ben Freeman, the director of the Democratizing Foreign Policy program at the Quincy Institute.

Hostile powers are buying influence on American campuses at an industrial scale. Foreign countries such as Qatar, whose state religion is Islam, and Communist China have poured $29 billion into campuses over the past few years.

That $29 billion figure is more than double the total for the preceding four years, and accounts for half of the estimated $57.97 billion in foreign funding since 1986, when the federal government began tracking the data.

In the last four years, foreign funding of American universities has ballooned. Qatar is the largest funder with China coming in second.

Harvard has historically received the most funding from foreign donors ($3.2 billion), followed by Cornell and Carnegie Mellon (each received $2.8 billion). “Follow the Money” reports, “Despite receiving large amounts of funding from Qatar over the years, Columbia University has not reported any of this funding to the Department of Education (DOE). As well, there have been no references to connections between Columbia University and Qatar or Qatari entities in its financial statements.”

Trump’s recent Executive Order threatened to scrap federal grants to universities if schools failed to accurately disclose overseas sources of funding. A 2024 study published by the National Association of Scholars found that universities failed to disclose at least $1 billion in foreign funding since Biden took office, the majority of which came from authoritarian countries such as Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey.

(The Defending Education Transparency and Ending Rogue Regimes Engaging in Nefarious Transactions Act passed in the house, and is now in the Senate.)

While Qatar holds the designation of a major non-NATO ally of the United States, the country is also known for harboring the leaders of Hamas and exporting political Islamism, including support of the Muslim Brotherhood, across the Middle East.

The Free Press, reports, “Part of the answer lies in an NCRI study (Network Contagion Research Institute) published last year in Frontiers of Social Psychology that found a strong correlation between universities that receive foreign funding from authoritarian countries and a rise in antisemitic incidents. The study concludes ‘that providing massive financial support to campuses with ascendant illiberalism serves the interests of foreign actors hostile to the U.S. in particular or liberal democracy in general.’”

Rather than sending their children here to be educated, Qatar has been importing America’s universities. “The Qatari capital is home to “Education City,” which hosts an outpost of Northwestern’s journalism school and Georgetown’s foreign policy school, each of which has received hundreds of millions from the wealthy Gulf state. Cornell, which built a medical school campus in Doha, has received $2.1 billion from Qatar.”

The small oil and natural gas rich Islamic country of Qatar has weaseled its way into America’s culture. Trump appointees, Pam Bondi, Susie Wiles, Kash Patel, Lee Zeldin and Steve Witkoff are all connected to Qatar either by lobbying, consulting or monetary bailouts. They make this administration look as though they’re advertising that foreign influence is welcome in the USA.

In Joshua Hoffman’s article, How Muslims Will Take Over America, he writes, “Of all people, Winston Churchill distinctly understood this urgent problem all the way back in 1899, when he said, ‘Individual Muslims may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in this world.’”

Follow the Money

In July 2019, Dr. Charles Asher Small, Director of the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP), participated in the Department of Justice (DOJ) Summit on Combatting Antisemitism in Washington, D.C. Dr. Small presented the findings of an ISGAP research project started in 2012, entitled “Follow the Money.” They included foreign funding of American universities, specifically highlighting the substantial, yet unreported, funding from Qatar. His research revealed potential violations of reporting requirements and raised concerns about the impact of such funding on academic independence and antisemitism on campuses.

Follow the Money states, “ISGAP uncovered and established that the foreign donations from Qatar, have had a substantial impact on fomenting growing levels of antisemitic discourse and campus politics at US universities, as well as growing support for anti-democratic values within these institutions of higher education.

“Dr. Small’s testimony and research focused on the systematic evasion of transparency requirements by universities and the potential for foreign donations to compromise academic integrity. He also highlighted the need for greater transparency and accountability in reporting foreign funding.”

His findings led to a federal government investigation in 2019.

ISGAP’s research uncovered billions of dollars in unreported funds from Qatar and other Middle Eastern countries to US universities. This led to investigations by the Department of Education into universities like Georgetown, Texas A&M, Cornell, Yale, Harvard, and Rutgers, says ISGAP. Dr. Small’s work also included concerns about the impact of foreign funding on promoting anti-democratic values and antisemitism on campuses.

Billions of U.S. dollars are going to universities via Qatari State-owned NGO’s and commercial entities!

ISGAP’s “Follow the Money” project previous reports have laid out the following:

Qatar is the largest foreign donor to U.S. universities
The Muslim Brotherhood’s Islamist ideology is intertwined with the State and furthermore the links that Qatar has with the Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestinian Chapter – Hamas
The fact that money coming from foreign states such as Qatar is having a direct effect on increasing antisemitism and anti-democratic views/activity

This report lays out the way that Qatar is operating a war-chest with between $500 Billion – $1 Trillion USD of assets and growing, to affect soft power in the west – including the U.S.’ prestigious universities.

According to a 2022 study, Qatar contributed $4.7 billion to dozens of academic institutions across the United States between 2001 and 2021. Some of the amounts are classified as “gifts” while others are labeled as “restricted agreements.”

Ariel Admoni, a PhD student at Bar Ilan University in Israel, who specializes in foreign and domestic relations of Qatar and the Arabian Gulf, states that Qatar’s links to American academia date back to the 1970s and 1980s. “The Qatari’s aim to be tone-setters, active participants in the discourse, exerting influence wherever they can impact and where decision-makers gather,” Admoni added. “This involves investing in global sports, culture, politics, and academia to establish ‘soft power’ influence. It’s a form of soft diplomacy, ensuring that they cannot be ignored.”

Qatar’s Choices Program

The lavish K-12 Arabic language and culture program sponsored by the Qatar Foundation to influence curriculum in American public schools is not the first time a Middle Eastern country has attempted to do so. Saudi Arabia had the same idea. Through higher education, the Saudis were able to support programs to train teachers on specific content they wished to sponsor through Title VI of the Higher Education Act.

This act gives a grant to certain universities for regional studies, including Latin Studies, Post-Soviet Studies, Middle Eastern Studies, etc. In order to get the grant, the professors in these departments are required to have teacher-training workshops for teachers of kindergarten through 12^th grade, or for librarians.

Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) sounded off on the “Stop Gaza Genocide Toolkit” being promoted in the NYC Public Schools newsletter. The US Campaign for Palestinian Rights is behind this Toolkit. They are funded by grants from foundations like the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. The eight-minute video is shocking.

The Jewish Onliner reveals that Qatar’s “Choices Program” has now permeated America’s higher education:

“A new report from the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy (ISGAP) reveals that more than one million American students across all 50 states (in over 8,000 schools) are learning from a curriculum, developed at Brown University that is allegedly fueled by undisclosed Qatari funding and designed to delegitimize Israel. The Choices Program, widely used in secondary schools, has been found to systematically distort historical facts, promote anti-Israel narratives, and operate under a legally ambiguous structure that may be skirting federal disclosure laws. In response, ISGAP is calling for an immediate federal investigation, the suspension of the program, and congressional hearings to address foreign influence in U.S. classrooms.

“Qatar Foundation International (QFI), a U.S.-based LLC tied to Qatar’s powerful Qatar Foundation, has been directly involved in shaping the curriculum and teacher training workshops. According to the report, Brown University has not disclosed this funding as required under Section 117 of the Higher Education Act of 1965, potentially placing the university in violation of federal law.”

Initially the Choices Program started out with accurate information on Israel, her capitol as Jerusalem and Israel’s historical and religious significance. But over a decade, this has radically changed, casting the region as essentially Islamic and Jews as outsiders, and calling Israel a settler-state, when the land has been theirs since around 1400 BCE.

IMPACT, a research, policy, and advocacy organization that monitors and analyzes education, published an extensive report on the educational content of school textbooks in the country of Qatar. The report told of pervasive amounts of antisemitism, anti-Western propaganda, Islamic rhetoric and clear sympathy to Islamic causes. There is a heavy Muslim Brotherhood influence and a celebration of jihadism. Like Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthi’s, Qatar is adamant about passing ideological content to their children.

The curriculum guide that Qataris most frequently use is Audrey Shabbas’ “The Arab World Studies Notebook”. It is funded by AWAIR (Arab World Islamic Resources and School Services). AWAIR receives its funding from ARAMCO, Saudi’s largest oil producer, and the Middle East Policy Council, both of which receive their funding directly from the Saudi government. While the Department of Education allows the Bible, both the Hebrew and Christian portions, to be taught only as literature, the Notebook is teaching Quran as empirical knowledge.

They are now passing it on to America’s children and most Americans have no idea what is taught in K-12 or higher education.

ISGAP reports that in 2021, the Choices Program migrated their materials behind a password protected site, preventing educators, school boards, and parents from monitoring changes. There are no alerts to schools when there are any changes.

Investigations by ISGAP expose changes including the removal of key historical documents and the omission of others, the misrepresentation of Israel’s capital in maps, and the exclusion of balanced perspectives on Israeli history and diplomacy. The report also reveals that Qatar Foundation International (QFI) has played an undisclosed role in shaping the Choices Program’s curriculum and teacher training, influencing how American students are taught about the Middle East and Israel.

The Gulf kingdom has lavished billions on US higher education as it seeks soft power; the money may also be fueling anti-Israel and anti-Jewish trends at schools.

Israel isn’t the only topic. The Choices Program softened its descriptions of Iran and Hezbollah, no longer referring to either as terrorist states or organizations. ISGAP called it a sanitization of extremism within the curriculum.

In a 2022, ISGAP study, The Corruption of the American Mind, foreign funding in higher education by widely undisclosed Islamic regimes is not only changing the tenor of democratic norms in our Republic, but it is purposely increasing the antisemitic protests on campuses and making life unbearable on those campuses for Jewish young people.

Kenneth Marcus, who served as assistant secretary for civil rights at the US Department of Education from 2018 to 2020, noted that over the last 20 years, anti-Israel attitudes in academia had expanded, having once been largely isolated to Middle Eastern studies programs but now being present in a wide range of fields of study. “Even mental health programs, psychology programs, and medical schools are now badly infected with anti-Zionism,” he said.

According to Marcus, the draw of Qatari money also means school administrators may be less willing to call out antisemitism on campus. “It’s not at all surprising when US administrators are reluctant to impose the same discipline on foreign students when they’re getting foreign money because there is a range of pressures on them to avoid doing the right thing,” he said.

Congress and the President must enforce transparency requirements, lower reporting thresholds and prohibit gifts from entities in countries of concern. The Trump administration is preparing to accept a super luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from the royal family of Qatar, a gift he may use as Air Force One until his retirement. It will then be transferred to the Trump presidential library foundation.

Attorney General Pam Bondi and Trump’s top White House lawyer David Warrington concluded it would be “legally permissible” for the donation of the aircraft to be conditioned on transferring its ownership to Trump’s presidential library before the end of his term, according to sources familiar with their determination.

Trump’s Trip to Qatar

This is the first time an American president has visited Doha in 20 years. We know Qatar plays all sides. They host the largest US air base in the region while maintaining open relationships with enemies of Israel and the West, the Taliban, Hamas, Houthis and Iran. They are not mediators unless they have direct stakes in the outcomes.

Their strategies are subtle but pervasive and they have spent years cultivating influence across American institutions. Billions upon billions have flowed from Doha to the US, not only our schools and universities, but lobbying firms, think tanks and even real estate, very much like China. As Amine Ayoub writes in Middle East Forum, “Qatar is a global operator with a sophisticated PR engine and an appetite for influence.”

Their money shapes far too much and steers public discourse to protect their interests. It is soft power and soft persuasion, but it will have dire consequences for America and her people.

Any US-Qatar relationship must include a commitment to ending their backroom dealings with terrorist organizations.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, of Electric Vehicles

By Ronald Stein

May 12, 2025

A recently released 90-minute documentary is a MUST viewing by everyone to enhance their Energy Literacy about the shell game wealthy countries are using to exploit developing countries.

Electric vehicles are being mandated in California, but Governor Newsom is oblivious to the fact that it’s just another product that cannot exist without oil, as all the thousands of parts and components of EV’s, from tires, insulation, and computers, are made from the oil derivatives manufactured out of crude oil.

Newsom’s efforts to “transition away from fossil fuels” has yet to comprehend that humanity is not addicted to fossil fuels, but they are addicted to the PRODUCTS and TRANSPORTATION FUELS made from those fossil fuels to meet the materialistic DEMANDS of humanity and the economy. Despite the DEMAND for the products and transportation fuels that so-called renewables CANNOT make, only wealthy economies, like that in California, have “green” movements and are pursuing them with mandates and costly subsidies.

The recently released documentary “Electric Vehicles: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly” isn’t just another documentary that lazily cheerleads the industry, though there is a fair amount of marveling at the technology and underscoring its benefits and potential. It’s an enlightening, educational, and entertaining 90-minute documentary that is a MUST viewing by everyone to enhance their Energy Literacy and help them decide for themselves if EV’s are good, bad, or ugly.

The documentary is available for purchase at $12.99
The documentary is available for a 72-hour lease for $9.99

It’s appalling that the policymakers, JUST in wealthy countries, are setting “green” policies that continue to support humanity atrocities and environmental degradation in poorer developing countries that are mining for the exotic minerals and metals to go “green”.

The documentary demonstrates the environmental degradation, and humanity atrocities to people with yellow, brown, and black skin, in those poorer developing countries, to be unethical and immoral JUST for materials to make EV batteries. The documentary is narrated by Larry Elder, a talk radio host, author, politician, lawyer, and former candidate for Governor of California.

Planet Earth’s resources are limited! Our 4-billion-year-old planet has limited natural resources like oil, gas, coal, lithium, cobalt, manganese, etc. that are being extracted at alarming rates. Even with technological advances in the next few decades by those in wealthier countries, we may find “more”, but at current rates of extraction of those resources, the planet may be sucked dry in 50, 100, 500, or 1,000 years, so the question for our conversation is: Should there be a greater focus on the limitations of earth’s natural resources now being extracted for the enjoyment by wealthier countries on Earth as our 4-billion-year-old planet will continue to be here, with or without humans,?

Planet Earth’s resources are limited! Our planet has limited natural resources, including fossil fuels, but especially critical minerals (employed in many new energy systems), such as lithium, cobalt, manganese, various Rare Earth Elements (REE) and many basic industrial metals currently being extracted at unsustainable rates, and mainly from poorer developing countries, under dire working conditions, without labor or health protections, and causing serious environmental impact, due to the unsophisticated extraction processes employed.

With technological advances by wealthier countries, in the next few decades we may find “more”, but at current rates of extraction, the planet may not be able to provide those resources for very long, and in many cases, not even for a century. Wealthy countries refuse to put a greater focus on the limitations of earth’s natural resources currently being extracted for the enjoyment of wealthier countries, since they do not understand that our 4-billion-year-old planet will continue to be here, with or without humans.

The documentary educates the viewers about the critical minerals and metals needed to support the much touted “energy transition” to EVs, wind turbines, solar panels and batteries, come from unreliable, unstable or poorer developing countries such as China, some African nations, and others. Those countries have minimal labor laws and poor environmental controls, so that their production of the critical minerals and metals needed for going “green” results in serious environmental degradation, dire social consequences, and human rights abuses to their population, predominantly made up of people with yellow, brown, and black skin. All this, just to support “clean” electricity in wealthier countries.

Question: Do you believe it is ethical and moral for wealthy countries to continue subsidies to go “green”, when they encourage China and African countries to CONTINUE exploiting many who work under miserable conditions, and when such subsidies entrench financial incentives for environmental degradation, just to support producing EV batteries, wind turbines and solar panels, mostly for wealthier countries”?

The extraction rates and R/P (reserves to production) ratio for many of the critical minerals and metals needed for going “green” are alarming, and most of these natural resources are NOT being replenished. This suggests a worrisome possibility of an unsustainable approach to the current policies of subsidies for “green” energies. Furthermore, even countries with the largest reserve base face important challenges to increasing production growth to meet projected future demand.

LITHIUM: In 2024, the world mined about 240,000 tons of lithium, almost three times the amount mined in 2020. The International Energy Agency (IEA) projects that demand for lithium will increase to 450,000 tons per year by 2030. Despite a significant world resource base, production of those resources remains a major challenge.
COBALT: In 2024, the world produced an estimated 280,000 metric tons of cobalt, the highest amount ever recorded. The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) was the world’s leading producer, accounting for 74% of the global total, while the country is known for the major problems with child labor and poor working conditions of its mineral sector.

Today, a typical EV battery for a Tesla sedan requires substantial raw material extraction for the battery’s minerals and metals of lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, copper, aluminum, graphite, plus the steel, plastic, and other metals for battery casings.

The documentary raises concern about those “blood minerals”, mostly from developing countries, come from mining at locations in the world that are never inspected or seen by policymakers and EV buyers.

The mining and refining involve large quantities of raw materials. The estimated total mass of raw materials mined and processed for an EV battery, including overburden and waste rock—might range from 50,000 to 100,000 pounds, depending on battery size, chemistry, and mining efficiency.

The current rates of extraction of natural resources, such as coal, gas, lithium, cobalt, etc., to support the generation of electricity, are clearly unsustainable. Humanity is unable to replace those natural resources on Planet Earth, and obviously, the production sources will eventually run out.

At current rates of extraction of natural resources, the technically and economically available world resource base may be sucked dry in a few centuries, but our 4-billion-year-old Planet Earth will continue to exist in the solar system, with or without humans.

The documentary should be viewed by so-called zero-emission policymakers in the few wealthy countries that have disrupted the delivery of electricity with strict regulations, preferential subsidies, and cancellation of proven baseload sources like coal, nuclear and even natural gas. They should have solidified other sources, to ensure that the availability of affordable electricity that is continuous and uninterruptible would not be disrupted for consumers.

Readers are encouraged to view the documentary “Electric Vehicles: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly“ to learn more about the shell game wealthy countries are using to exploit developing countries to support so-called clean and green electric vehicles, and decide for themselves if the world economies and the environment can accommodate EV’s to satisfy the transportation needs for all, not just the few elites on this planet.

Please share this information with teachers, students, and friends to encourage Energy Literacy conversations at the family dinner table.

Follow-up To America’s Decline: Telling It Like It Is

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 12, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Frosty,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Prescription For Chaos

By Roy Masters

May 11, 2025

Early in life we were emotionally shocked and traumatized. And with that first fall away from our original state of being, fault took root and grew into the multi-layered ugliness that we see ourselves composed of, when we first (if ever) begin seeking for what went wrong.

The seeker should bear this basic principle in mind: a human being can be shocked, excited, angered, stimulated, distracted, entertained, emotionalized and so on.

The very moment that happens true values are displaced, and the shock, the excitement, the anger, etc. is substituted for those true values.

In most of us, these displacements have become the “long-forgotten” experiences of childhood (forgotten because associated with those traumatic events is “shame”).

Instead of facing up to the weakness associated with the corrupting event, the ego tries to assert, or maintain, a posture of “original innocence.” All those friends and relatives who aid you in maintaining this charade of “innocence” succeed only in violating you more.

Before true maturity, all friends are really fiends. All excitement, entertainment, drugs, pills, counseling, encounter and group therapy, sensitivity training etc. work toward the same result: they help you feel secure and “right” while actually helping you to grow more wrong.

Once you fall to accept any form of comfort, you associate growth with the feeling of comfort. Without re-experiencing that comfort, you sense that original anxiety, or loss, that has actually grown more severe through your use of those assorted false comforts.

And—lurking behind those comforts—are the frozen smiles of the professional comforters, ready to assure you at every turn that you are perfectly all right the way you are. All you really need is just a little more of their services and help. Payable monthly.

Doctors of Doom

“I smoke two full packs of cigarettes a day,” a man complained. “Don’t be so concerned,” assured the doctor. “I smoke three packs on a bad day!”

A patient-parolee in a therapy group was instructed not to repress anger but to let it out, express it! Now she is back in jail.

A terrible danger attends this kind of “advice.” In spite of their “advanced” medical training, these counselors are unable to use their knowledge for good, achieving nothing more than the ability to use the information about their patients’ problems to justify their own anxiety over their similar weaknesses.

“Subconsciously the leaders of those who desire to remain blind are themselves unwilling to accept the truth”

Comforted, no longer in conflict with his own Conscience, the patient soon falls to temptation again. Then, haunted by increased guilt, he is forced to return either to the confessional, the jail or the operating table.

With the logic of a mad hatter, self-indulgent counselors point out with “scientific” solemnity that the inability to quit smoking is a reliable sign that cigarettes are necessary and proper for the body—as indeed they are in the counselor’s own case!

Thus we are advised to continue smoking to get the essential “ingredients” provided by the tobacco. Unable or unwilling to overcome his own degrading enslavement to nicotine, the counselor scores a double “victory” by earning money from his patients, while making his own vice more bearable.

But even more insidiously, such advice unconsciously blocks us from ever finding the real cure. There are all kinds of gurus of vice, ranging from fat little champions of gourmet to the emaciated wizards of pot and LSD—most doctors are no different. They are all people with wrong motives.

No doctor is likely to grow poor with this kind of treatment, for the patient will always be returning for reassurance as well as for treatment for the other problems that will grow out of the original one.

The same is true of the psychological advice given to the parolee, namely that “anger is natural. You must not suppress it, that’s what makes you sick. You must instead continue to get upset and let it out.” The psychologist who makes this kind of statement also misleads his victims.

His motive is not to help the patient but to help himself—to excuse and be comfortable with his own private tantrums. Have you ever filed a complaint against an impatient corporate employee only to find the management willing to defend his rudeness for their own personal reasons?

Subconsciously the leaders of those who desire to remain blind are themselves unwilling to accept the truth, for that would put them out of business and undermine their authority and power, which stands upon a lie.

For this reason they mostly treat (excuse) the guilt rather than attack the selfish existence that gives rise to it.

The healers in their turn are likewise addicted to doing their thing, that is, comforting wrong people for the ego appreciation and money (symbolic tribute, homage and love for a king) they obtain for their services.

What A Friend We Have In Jesus

By Rob Pue

May 11, 2025

I’ve always had a great interest in music. I enjoy almost all types of music, and music is a wonderful gift from God. The Bible is replete with references to music. In Genesis 4, we read about the first musician, “Jubal,” who was the fourth generation from Adam, in the lineage of Cain. Genesis 4:21 tells us that Jubal was “the father of all those who play the lyre and pipe.” And in Exodus, when God closed the Red Sea after the Israelites passed through it, Moses’ sister, Miriam led the Israelite women “with tambourines and dancing” as she sang.

Also in the Old Testament, we have the Psalms, the Song of Solomon, and Ecclesiastes, all song-related books. In the New Testament, we read of Jesus and His disciples singing in Matthew 26, the apostles singing in Acts 16, the angels of heaven singing when Jesus was born, recorded in Luke 2, and more song lyrics in Revelation 5, 7 and 15.

Perhaps the most famous musician in Scripture is David. And we read in 1 Samuel 16, “when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took a harp, and played with his hand: so, Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.” Yes, music can, indeed soothe the soul, as we praise our Heavenly Father and His Son.

Maybe I’m just too old, but one type of music I really do not like is most of the modern Christian songs, or “Contemporary Christian” music. Today, it’s rare to find a radio station that plays the old hymns. Most carry only “Contemporary Christian” programming.

Most of our churches today have also followed suit, offering “praise choruses” rather than the old hymns that I remember from my youth, growing up in church. And if those old, sacred hymns are played in church today, the “praise and worship teams” seem to find it necessary to “modernize” them, jazz them up, and give them a rock beat.

I wish they’d just leave well enough alone. It’s such a joy to hear them sung just the way they were originally written. I think a lot of people would agree with me on that. I’ve been to churches where they try to please everyone in the crowd — doing some rock & roll style “praise and worship” songs and one or two hymns thrown in to appease the old folks. Here’s what I’ve noticed every single time: when the modern songs are performed, everyone is standing — because they’re supposed to — but almost no one is singing. But when the hymns are played, as originally composed, the entire building seems to come alive with everyone singing in unison. Even the young people. And they don’t need the lyrics projected up on a screen either, because they know them. I wish the church bands would see that and stop with all the showmanship.

One of my favorite old hymns was written in 1855 by Joseph Scriven. I’m sure you know it. It’s called “What a Friend We Have in Jesus.” I’ll take that any day over the drums and guitars of a modern “praise and worship” song. Because the old hymns of our Christian faith weren’t just emulating secular pop culture songs; they weren’t meant to just touch our emotions as we sing soft-rock “love songs” to Jesus. They were written with deep honor and reverence for God, and they’re richly filled with good theology. Each one is a Bible lesson in itself.

There still are some churches where only those hymns are sung, but they’re few and far between now. As one who has a real interest in music, I especially like to know the stories behind the songs…what inspired the writing of the song? What was happening in the songwriter’s life that caused him to compose the lyrics? And where did the melody come from? In the case of those old hymns, they were inspired by God Himself, and they still have deep meaning, soothing the soul with rich spiritual truths. I kind of wish that each time one of those old songs is sung, the song leader would tell the story behind it. That’s something that is rarely, if ever, done. So, I’d like to do that here.

Joseph Scriven had a life of heartbreak. He lived in Dublin, Ireland and at the age of 25, tragedy struck, as his fiance drowned in a lake — just one day before they were to be married. I can’t imagine the heartbreak…well, actually, I do know that heartbreak, and I’ll share that with you later. As for Joseph, while still trying to heal from this deep, emotional wound, he decided to immigrate to Canada….he would never see his mother again.

Ten years later, in 1855, he received word that his mother was facing a crisis, so Joseph wrote the poem that became “What A Friend We Have In Jesus,” — for her. She was so taken by the beautiful words that she gave it to a friend who had it published anonymously. It quickly became a hymn, though no one knew who had written it, until just before Joseph died.

In the New World, Joseph once again fell in love and was engaged to be married to Eliza Catherine Roche, but tragedy struck again, when Eliza contracted tuberculosis and died in 1860, before the wedding could take place.

Joseph is described as “a man of short stature, with iron-gray hair, close-cropped beard, and light blue eyes that sparkled when he talked.” He spent his life in obscurity in Port Hope, Canada, doing ministry work for the Plymouth Brethren and Baptists. He’s remembered for cutting wood for widows and giving away his clothes and money to those in need.

Joseph never did marry, and in October of 1896, he became critically ill. A neighbor tended to him as he lay in bed and it was then that the neighbor asked about the rumor he’d heard that Joseph was the one who had written “What A Friend We Have In Jesus.” His reply was, “The Lord and I did it between us.”

Shortly thereafter, the delirium of his illness caused him to get out of bed one night and wander outside. There, he staggered and fell into a small creek and drowned at the age of 66. History only tells us that “his grave was arranged so that his feet were opposite those of his lost love, Eliza Catherine Roche, so that at the resurrection, they might arise facing one another.”

By all accounts, he was a humble man who endured more heartache and pain than most of us could ever relate to, but rather than become bitter, he poured his life into serving God and serving others. The legacy he leaves behind is this beautiful song that we all know and love today. Next time you hear it, remember the story of its writer, a soft-spoken, humble man called Joseph Scriven.

Let the words he wrote back in 1855 resonate with your heart today. “What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer. Oh, what peace we often forfeit; oh, what needless pain we bear. All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.

“Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged. Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a Friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness. Take it to the Lord in prayer.

“Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge! Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer. In His arms He’ll take and shield thee. Thou wilt find a solace there.”

I wonder how many of us today could maintain such faith and confidence in God, after suffering the loss of a fiance, traveling to a new country, knowing no one, and never having the means to travel back to visit our dear mother. All Joseph Scriven could do was comfort her in her time of need with a simple poem he wrote and mailed to her. But those words have endured so many generations and continue to inspire so many hearts and souls yet today.

You may not know this, but I, too, lost a finance. She was killed in a car wreck — exactly one week before Christmas in 1988. It would be an understatement to say that my soul was in shock and my heart was deeply wounded. I remember going to help her family empty out her apartment, and picking up the Christmas presents she had already wrapped and prepared for me. “Why her, Lord?” The loss was unbearable. I had already written a song for her, several months before that tragic car accident. I’d written several other songs before that too, but never wrote another one. Listening to it after her death, the words I penned for her seem to foretell what eventually happened, but they were still a celebration of her life. In my time of grief, it was music that helped to soothe my soul, and although it wasn’t specifically a Christian song, it was what I wrote for my lost love with words I didn’t fully understand until after she was gone. Certainly, God had a major role in that.

That dark and sad time in my life prepared me for many more losses and many more challenges and hard times that lay ahead in my future….and through that tragedy, God gave me the training to be able to comfort and minister to others who’ve had to endure similar things.

Two years later, God blessed me with the love of my life — my wife and I have been married since 1990, and I love her more today than the day we said, “I Do!” God is good.

I doubt I’ll ever write any kind of song that becomes such a powerful hymn of faith and trust in our Lord, but like Joseph, I’ve devoted my life to serving God and serving others, and this is what we should all be doing, whatever our circumstances may be. We should be using whatever gifts and talents the Lord has blessed us with to bless and serve others. We should live quiet, humble lives, and when our souls outgrow these earthly bodies, I pray each of us is remembered for our steadfast faith in the One Who saved us from our sins and our humble service to others in His name.

“What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer. Oh, what peace we often forfeit; oh what needless pain we bear. All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.”

Americans: Addicted, Addled, and Adrift

By Sidney Secular

May 10, 2025

Big pharma spends $15 billion per year on TV advertising, and they do it because it works. Americans, as if they had nothing better to do, watch more television than any other people in the world, and the lion’s share of the commercials on those TVs are from pharmaceutical companies. Despite the litany of doleful/dreadful “side-effects” cited and sometimes belabored in those ads, we go ahead heedlessly and purchase them since we can’t get over our addictions to the potions, nor do we have any notions to do so, being mesmerized by the medical men and their mouthpieces.

Big pharma is thus swimming in a cascade of cash that can be used to buy politicians, stuff upper management’s pockets, or can be plowed back into research and development to create a panaloply of ever more addictive, potent pharmaceuticals to empty our pockets of whatever pocket change we have left after our budgets have been busted paying for today’s outrageous food and housing costs.

Polling by KFF indicates that 13% of US adults are taking one pharmaceutical drug, another 11% are taking 2 of them, another 10% are taking 3 pharmaceuticals, and a whopping 27% of US adults are taking 4 or more such drugs. Putting those figures together, a solid majority of at least 61% of adults admit they are regularly taking at least one pharmaceutical drug. Elderly Americans are the biggest victims and suckers. One study found that an estimated 89% of older adults took at least one prescription medication in the last 12 months.

Even if you aren’t sick and have no real illnesses, the systematic TV advertising is designed to nudge you to find a reason for you to become a customer of big pharma. As an example, the percentage of Americans diagnosed with depression has more than tripled since 2005, increasing from 5.4% in 2005 to 18% in 2023, an all-time high. Act a bit sad, and they will be glad to get you going on the pills — and this is especially true for women, who use antidepressants at twice the rate of men, at nearly 18% of women aged 18 and older. A listing of the side effects of antidepressants can leave you depressed and includes difficulty urinating, drowsiness, dry mouth, constipation, easy bleeding and bruising, nausea, weight gain, insomnia, and sexual dysfunction.

The US imports 75% of its essential medicines from China and India, including antibiotics and treatments for diabetes and heart conditions, With the Trump tariffs kicking in, drug prices could be kicked up quite a few notches with millions of Americans experiencing a rude awakening. Of course, its not just adults that are being drugged into oblivion. Boy, oh, boy, American boys are being given massive doses of drugs for ADHD, with over 21% of 14-year-old boys now suffering from this supposed condition.

As a result, prescriptions for Ritalin and Adderall have skyrocketed by 60% from 2012 to 2022, with boys aged 10 to 14 being the big demographic for these prescriptions. Most of the boys taking these drugs do not need them, as they are being treated for normal boyish behavior.

Sadly, an increasing percentage of US adults now believe that children are such a “burden” that they don’t want to be parents at all. The percentage of non-parents who don’t want any children increased from 14% in 2002 to 29% in 2023. During the same period, the percentage of non-parents who plan to have children in the future fell from 79% to 59%. With that sort of negativism, we can’t expect to have a positive outlook on the future. Sadly, millions of Americans have lost their optimism and faith in the future because their drugging habits have left them too down, depressed, and devoid of spirit to care.

“We have a Pope,” and He’s Another Open Border Leftist

By Cliff Kincaid

May 10, 2025

Special Report

He won’t be caught singing Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the U.S.A.” This “American” pope is not proud to be an American. This pope has been attacking President Trump and Vice President Vance for weeks on the social media platform X and seems guilt-ridden over America’s success.

He could have used his remarks to launch a much-needed campaign to restore the fundamental values of Judeo-Christian civilization, or at least to say a few nice words about America. He failed at that, in an ominous indication of where the church is headed.

Although he is not a certified boy lover, Bill Donohue of the Catholic League has documented that he is mired in sex scandals that stretch from Chicago where he was born, to Peru, where he spent 20 years.

In a production worthy of Hollywood, he appeared on stage, to the declaration, “Habemus Papam,” we have a pope, when he was the logical pick of a College of Cardinals whose majority was selected by Pope Francis, a major leader of the Global Left.

No Mystery

Americans were led to believe by the media that there was some mystery to the selection, and the betting markets were misled as well, putting money on an Italian to get the job.

What we should have been told, in advance, was that he had to get the approval of the secretive Lavender or Gay Mafia in the Roman Catholic Church. This network dwarfs that of Jeffrey Epstein.

Important Catholic figures have called this evidence of the “powers of darkness” in the Vatican.

Robert Prevost, leader of 1.3 billion Catholics, is supposedly the first American pope but he did not say a word in English when he made his first appearance and accepted the nod. It was a deliberate snub to the home of his birth and — by extension — President Donald J. Trump. Instead, he spoke in Italian, and then Spanish, having served the church in Peru for 20 years, even acquiring Peruvian citizenship in 2015.

One American Catholic told me, “It left me cold,” as he failed to say one word in his papal remarks about the religious liberty and other constitutional freedoms that made missionary activities possible. “If he had spoken only in Italian I would feel differently, but the fact that he broke into Spanish and acknowledged the people of Peru made me anticipate the moment he would do the same for America!” It never came.

“I went from excitement to disappointment,” she said, when the news was announced and he failed to recognize America’s divine origins and mission in the world. “That was a direct slight to our country. None of the commentators are even acknowledging that glaring and obvious omission!”

Media Malpractice

It’s true. Commentators on the right and left went completely limp-wristed at the thought that an “American” would get that position and failed to look at his awful record and how the corruption and communism in the church made it possible.

Pope Francis was considered the leader of the global left, and Leo XIV will certainly follow. That seems to be the plan, leading some to think he may be a “false prophet” of some kind, on the road to world government, and that the Roman Catholic Church has become part of the “New Age” movement in the post-Christian era.

Although he invoked the name of Mary, the Mother of God, he made no mention of Fatima, the place where in 1917 Catholics believe the Virgin Mary appeared to three children in a vision, followed by the Miracle of the Sun, to call for the Vatican to consecrate communist Russia to avoid “errors” that from that country which that would devastate the world. Russia’s wars of aggression, including the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, have accelerated, even as Trump pleads for ceasefires.

As a result, according to what the church itself believes, that war will continue, without end, and Russia and China will continue to wage war on the West.

The Church abandoned anti-communism after the Russians tried to kill Pope John Paul II for working with President Reagan to oppose Soviet Russia. Dr. Paul Kengor’s book, A Pope and a President: John Paul II, Ronald Reagan, and the Extraordinary Untold Story of the 20th Century, documents how, on the anniversary of Fatima, the Soviets carried out the May 13, 1981, attempted assassination of anti-communist Pope John Paul II.

Francis got the message and failed to carry out the consecration of Russia, as requested by the Virgin Mary at Fatima. He also cozied up to Vladimir Putin and his KGB-controlled Russian Orthodox Church and made a secret deal with Communist China to pick church officials there.

Persecuting Traditional Catholics

In practical terms, for Americans, Catholics who believe in the right to life and other traditional teachings are going to be given the boot, such as Texas Bishop Joseph E. Strickland, who was fired from his post by Francis, a major development that says a lot about Prevost’s rapid rise in the hierarchy. Strickland, an advocate of traditional Catholic teachings, was removed from his duties in the diocese of Tyler, Texas, on November 11, 2023.

Under Joe Biden, traditional Catholics were monitored and even investigated and raided by the FBI. It categorized “certain Catholic Americans” as potential domestic terrorists.

As part of the Francis plan for his own replacement, Prevost had received his “red hat” from Pope Francis on September 30, 2023, and moved to Rome, where he became head of the Vatican Dicastery for Bishops and reportedly played a role in sacking Strickland. That means he was a Cardinal for only two years, obviously on the fast track to succeed Francis.

When Strickland was forced out, it is important to note that he was NOT caught in a sex scandal, and his Tyler, Texas, diocese did not have to go bankrupt because of sex scandal payouts to victims. Instead, he was accused of criticizing the pope.

“The only answer I have to that,” referring to his removal, “is because forces in the Church right now don’t want the truth of the Gospel,” Strickland said.

With traditional Catholics leaving, there is more room for those who believe in synthesizing Christianity and Communism into a bizarre philosophy of “Christian communism.” Democrats promoting abortion will still get communion.

The Catholic Church is the largest religious body in America and openly backed President Barack Hussein Obama’s socialist health care scheme known as “Obamacare” that is helping bankrupt the United States and leading to what they already have in Canada — medical assistance in dying (MAID), or euthanasia.

Future Church

Prevost said “we want to be a synodal church,” which implies watering down of Catholic doctrine to accommodate other religions, including those who worship the Earth Goddess Gaia, Islam’s false prophets, and Hinduism’s false gods.

Clearly, the “American-made” pope is American in name only and it took only a few hours to discover his devotion on social media to open borders for America. It is a Democratic Party policy that that has meant a foreign invasion by illegals and criminals from around the world that has inflicted true suffering on American citizens but does not affect Vatican officials living behind Vatican walls.

Target the Supreme Court

The timing of this selection is significant. One wonders if the pick of Prevost is designed to impact the U.S. Supreme Court and force its Catholic members to subvert Trump’s immigration control and deportation strategy. There are six Catholics on the Court (Roberts, Thomas, Alito, Kavanaugh, Barrett, and Sotomayor).

Although Catholics consider the pope to be the direct successor of St. Peter, the church has clearly changed and has become known more for corrupt practices involving the homosexual abuse of boys than preaching the Gospel. A RICO or racketeering lawsuit against the hierarchy over sexual abuse and cover-ups is warranted, according to some critics.

Perhaps Prevost could be arrested on American soil if he arrives to meet President Trump.

Operation Restore Justice, a nationwide initiative by the FBI to identify, track, and arrest child predators, could be directed at the Roman Catholic Church.

Now, with the faux “American Pope,” the deception and dishonesty have reached new heights, as some Catholics even doubt his legitimacy. One critic called Leo “the Spiritual Son of Francis-Bergoglio” and head of the “Synodal” New Church of the New Age. Francis, a Jesuit from Argentina, went by the name of Jorge Bergoglio before being named pope.

The Jesuit journal America published “The Catholic Case for Communism,” written by a so-called Catholic Communist.

It seems he was on a fast-track to succeed Francis, a calculated move designed to con Americans into backing him when his ascension to the position of Pope was suddenly announced in a “surprise.” This was a secret deal, much like the forced resignation of Pope Benedict that put Francis in the seat.

In order to explain his failure to acknowledge his American roots, one harkens back to Fratelli tutti, a Vatican document designed “to deconstruct the concept of private property, weakening it and modifying it in a collectivist and anti-capitalist sense.” Clearly, Leo is on the anti-capitalism religious bandwagon and is full of shame over the country of his birth.

On social media, since the evidence shows he has attacked the America First immigration policies of the Trump Administration, he will be another global impediment to America’s desire to protect its Christian heritage from foreign invaders.

Far-Left Social Agenda

He can be expected to follow the lead of Francis, who endorsed homosexual civil unions in a direct contradiction of what the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith taught in 2003, with the authority of John Paul II. It said 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.”

Similarly, Prevost can be expected to follow the Francis document, Laudate Deum, described by his supporters as “a powerful exhortation to all people to address the climate crisis with faith and courage.” It was a follow-up to his environmental encyclical, Laudato si!, citing the mystical work of Teilhard De Chardin, who was nearly excommunicated for obscuring the nature of the God-man relationship mediated through Christ.

To his credit, Bill Donohue of the Catholic League notes that when Prevost was the bishop of the Peruvian Diocese of Chiclayo, three sisters say that “when they reported being sexually abused by a priest, he failed to investigate it.” Equally alarming, the new pope “allowed a homosexual priest in Chicago who was convicted of sexually abusing boys to stay in a residence near a Catholic elementary school; he never told the school administration about him. Also, the convicted molester, Father James Ray, was allowed to function as a priest, until he was later removed.”

The case of James Ray, a homosexual predator, was included in the Archdiocese of Chicago’s report of “Clergy with Substantiated Allegations of Sexual Misconduct with Minors.”

This case and others were covered in a special edition of Conclave Watch, an initiative by the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP). The group had recently launched a “Conclave Watch” initiative to highlight candidates for the Papacy it says have covered up sexual abuse.

Tragically, the selection of the new Leo is more evidence that the Catholic Church has lost its way and it’s a certainty that the number of traditional Catholics not attending church, now estimated at one-third, will surely rise.

Open letter to VA Secretary Doug Collins

By Andrew Wallace

May 10, 2025

Dear Secretary Collins,

Don’t Throw the Baby Out With the Bath Water

I have read your statements pledging to benefit Veteran’s Care. Much of what you have done is beneficial and I am sure is in good faith. But, you can’t continue the terror felt by most employees forever. It is demoralizing. You must return to normal allowing local officials to correct errors of “Your One Program Fits All “ it doesn’t. You are losing both new and existing employees to higher paid employment elsewhere and the VA suffers. .

Let me make this clear. I voted for Trump and support most of his efforts in my writing. Most Veterans are MAGA supporters but if you harm the greatest health care system in the world they will turn on you with a vengeance.

The James A. Haley hospital here in Tampa gives far better care than any other hospital in the area and I will never go anywhere else. There is one problem, I must schedule my heart attacks during the week because VA Cath Lab is not staffed on the weekend, why.?

Last week I had a serious health issue requiring an ambulance. The crew wanted to take me to a closer hospital because they didn’t think I could make it to the VA, but I insisted. I spent 3 Days in Intense Care with dedicated and really caring nurses. This is just one example of how dedicated I am to the VA and how hard Veterans will fight for the VA which was promised upon enlistment.

No one at the VA asked me to write to you or even knows that I did. This letter is based solely on my observations and dedication to the VA.

I am a 91 year old legally blind disabled veteran on dialysis.

God Bless You and the Republic

Citizens Can Stop the CO2 Pipeline Steamroller

By Tom DeWeese

May 9, 2025

The fight to stop the carbon capture pipeline across five Midwest states is yielding some positive results. But the forces behind it haven’t given up. Now, three more states are targeted. This tyranny over farmers can be stopped — but only if citizens’ freedom-fighting determination and dedication stand strong.

The carbon capture pipeline is one of the worst environmental scams ever. In all my years of fighting the lies and insane policies of the radical Left, this is without doubt their DUMBEST plan – but it’s also one of the MOST DANGEROUS that we have ever faced – especially for farmers.

Thousands and thousands of acres of privately-owned, food-producing Midwest Corn Belt farmland are being targeted for a 1300-mile-long carbon capture pipeline. The targeted states are South Dakota, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Nebraska.

The scam is to capture CO2 carbon dioxide and TRANSPORT IT UNDERGROUND!

The CO2 is to be buried in underground tanks – to stop global warming! The worst part of this idiotic scam is that it ignores biological science. CO2 is NOT a pollutant. It is natural food for trees and plants. None can live without CO2.

Here’s a scientific fact that the radical Greens are ignoring; For life to exist on earth, we need an average of 1,600 parts per million of CO2 in our atmosphere. However, right now, according to a chart provided by the U.S. Navy, we have only 400 parts per millions. That means we are facing CO2 starvation!

And yet, these so-called environmental “experts “are working to bury what we have in the ground – all to save the environment! This project is just as stupid and dangerous as Bill Gates’ plan to put up a sky level shield to block out the sun. And he proposed that with a straight face!

Just as I’ve been warning for over thirty-five years, all of this is part of the plot called for in Agenda 21, Agenda 2030, the Green New Deal and the Great Reset. In their words, “A blueprint for the reorganization of human society.” It has nothing to do with protecting the environment. It’s the scare tactic to get you to surrender your liberty to their global control.

Now, America’s farmers are on the front lines of the ground war to enforce that reorganization. Control the food – control our entire society. They are facing powerful forces — from rich corporations set on grabbing federal tax money to build the pipeline — to non-elected appointed government boards that are providing the power of eminent domain to enable those corporations to take any farmland they desire — to ignorant or corrupt elected representatives who refuse to stand up and protect their landowners.

I’ve run up against them all! It all started a couple of years ago when I was sponsored by the John Birch Society to travel to Iowa to address the carbon capture pipeline issue. I learned that the two main corporations pushing to build the pipeline were Summit Carbon Solutions and Navigator CO2 Ventures.

They sent out letters to farmlands in the proposed path of the pipeline, saying “Our goal is to reach voluntary agreements with all landowners along the Project route…” The goal was to get all landowners to sign an easement to “voluntarily” give up their land in the path of the project.

That path of the pipeline is not along the edges of the property where it wouldn’t interfere with the farmer’s use to grow crops. No, the pipeline will meander across the farm wherever the corporations want it – sometimes even as close as 60 feet from the house. And it’s not just a ditch for the pipes. It also includes buffer zones that could be twenty feet wide or more. The farmer loses control of that entire area.

But it gets worse. The Summit letter went on to explain that, if the farmer refused to voluntarily cooperate- “…if we are unable to do so (voluntarily) we may need to request the right of eminent domain (condemnation) from the (non-elected appointed Iowa Utilities Board. In other words, the corporation would use eminent domain to just take the land. Can you imagine how the farmers felt? Who stood with them to protect their land and their livelihood?

Then I was given a copy of a letter written by some Iowa county supervisors. It said the supervisors didn’t support the pipeline, but “THERE’S NOT MUCH WE CAN DO. IT LOOKS LIKE IT’S JUST GOING TO HAPPEN.”

That’s when I barnstormed the state and as I spoke to local audiences, I challenged all the county supervisors. “How dare you,” I said. “Who do you represent?” “Who will stand for these citizens? You swore an oath to represent THEM.” Further, I charged that the Iowa Utilities Board was not elected by anyone. And it was not the boss of these elected officials. I challenged them – “YOU COWARDS! When are you going to stand up and serve the people who elected you?”

I was surprised to learn that my speech was recorded by a local activist. He used the recording to make 300 DVDs and passed them out across the state, including to many county supervisors. And then he rented a movie theater and showed my recorded speech to a larger public audience.

The result was that several county supervisors did act. A few counties began to pass property rights protection legislation for the citizens in their individual areas. The legislation helped to serve as a roadblock to the pipeline, even as other counties took no action. That was a great start in the effort to stand up to the corporations.

Then the battle shifted to South Dakota where many farmers were publicly opposing the pipeline. Again, as in Iowa, I travelled across the state, speaking to local activists, providing ideas on how to stand up and fight to protect their property and farmers. In fact, I have been given credit by some of the local activists for inspiring positive action in their fight.

The fight in South Dakota became vicious as the corporations took action to silence opposition. One farmer, Jared Bossly, was very open in his opposition to the pipeline. He had signs posted on his property specifically notifying the pipeline corporations to not come on his property without his permission.

Summit Carbon Solutions decided to make an example of him to show other farmers what would happen if they openly opposed the pipeline. One day, without warning, as Bossly was out working in his fields, Summit arrived at his house. They began to walk around his property and even entered his barn where he had his farm office.

His wife, scared by these strangers on their land, called Jared, who was working out in the field. In a quick six second phone conversation with her, he said “we will need to get the sheriff involved.”

Jared did not talk directly to the surveyors. But those surveyors reported that he had threatened their lives. HE DID NO SUCH THING. But a judge put a restraining order on him, as if he was a danger to these corporate trespassers.

Then, less than two weeks later, Summit sent another team to his property, complete with armed guards and huge equipment designed to drill 90-foot-deep holes into his soil. They drove this monster equipment over his soybean and corn crops destroying them. But, by order of the judge, Jared was not allowed to confront or interact with them – on his own property.

It is obvious that Summit’s purpose in this intimidation tactic was to scare other farmers from opposing the pipeline on their own land, and to silence their opposition. That tactic backfired! Instead of silencing them, farmers rose up like never before in opposition. Within days, the farmers held a rally at the South Dakota state capital, demanding that the governor and state legislature take action to protect their property rights.

The battle has taken a positive turn. Suddenly, Navigator cancelled its plans to build its pipeline. In addition, recently, South Dakota Governor Larry Rhoden signed a bill banning the use of eminent domain for carbon capture pipelines.

Of course, that is a huge victory and should end the threat. But the real problem is Summit Carbon Solutions. It’s planning legal action to stop the ban. Also, Summit is looking for a possible new route around South Dakota to continue the pipeline into North Dakota. Most recently, a new carbon capture pipeline project has been announced to cover Ohio, West Virginia, and western Pennsylvania. For those states, the battle begins anew.

The Carbon Capture Pipeline is a scam that has nothing to do with protecting the environment. It is simply a weapon to take valuable farmland as evil forces work to impose their global agenda on us. The key weapon for stopping the threat is to fight for protection of property rights. Local elected officials must make the determination – who do they represent? – private corporations and non-elected Boards, or the people who elected them?

DOGE Is Doing the Clean-Up the Leftists Created and Can’t Stand

By Joan Swirsky

May 9, 2025

Clean Up in Aisle 4!

In this allegorical scenario, Honey and Hank moved into a cozy home in a small community in New England 30 years ago. The next day, their neighbor, Irene, brings over a hot, homemade casserole to welcome them to the neighborhood.

Within minutes, Honey and Irene “connect” in a phenomenon known as human chemistry. They just seem to “get” each other. And as their relationship evolves, they learn that they are on the same page on just about everything: raising kids, favorite foods, must-see TV programs, Mommy-and-Me classes, even the crocheting and knitting that their grandmothers taught them. And each of them has three children, with two of them having the same name!

As luck would have it, their husbands also hit it off and have quite a lot in common, the biggest that both are on-the-road salesmen.

Over the years, the couples become so close that they vacation and celebrate birthdays and holidays together. Honey and Irene even exchange house keys and list each other as emergency contacts on medical forms.

All good…for 30 years!

Uh-Oh…

Then, one day, Honey gets a phone call from her bank manager, Mr. Hervey, requesting that she and Hank come in for a sit-down.

“Of course,” Honey says, speculating with Hank that the investment they made with the bank’s money manager has either yielded a brilliant bonanza or — yikes — has gone bust.

When they sit down the next day with the Mr. Hervey — whom they call Linc, short for Lincoln — they notice a decidedly serious look on his face.

“Look,” he says. “We live in a small town where everyone knows everything about everyone else. I know Irene and her husband Fred very well. And I know how close you’ve been over all these years. I even know that you exchanged house keys in case of an emergency. And Honey, I know that you gave Irene the PIN to your bank account, again in case of an emergency.”

At this point, Honey and Hank are nonplussed, having no idea where Linc Hervey is going with this strange introduction.

“Well, I hate to tell you this,” he says, “but we just discovered that over the years — many, many years — Irene has been withdrawing money from your account — very cleverly, so you would never notice — but now it has added up to a small fortune. A real fortune.”

When Mr. Hervey tells them the amount, they are both dumbstruck, speechless, almost out of breath.

Enter Politics

Both Hank and Fred, as mentioned, were businessmen, capitalists, conservatives. At the same time, both men tolerated that their wives were liberals with do-gooder instincts to save the climate, save the whales, save humanity! Both men had decided that it wasn’t worth arguing, because most other things in their lives were so harmonious.

But sitting in front of the bank manager, who had just informed him that his wife’s best friend was a colossal fraud, a thief, and worthy of a felony conviction, Hank immediately took out his iPhone and looked up the numbers of his lawyer and his local police department, with the intention of having Irene (and possibly her husband Fred, as a co-conspirator) served with papers and then arrested and, he hoped, indicted and imprisoned.

Honey, on the other hand, started screaming at the bank manager. “How dare you accuse Irene of any wrongdoing? You are on a witch hunt. You have no proof!”

“Unfortunately, Honey, we have empirical proof,” Linc said, “all scrupulously documented on our computers, going back years, in fact decades.”

Is this scenario not exactly what Americans — and, for that matter, the entire world — have been witnessing in real time as Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) discover the malfeasance, fraud, and criminality of not the fictional housewife Irene, but the real live people who run our massive government institutions? To name only a few, there are the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the Pentagon, and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). All of these have been fleecing our country — with our tax dollars — not of millions or billions, but of trillions of dollars!

In fact, DOGE has been unearthing the deep corruption involving both Republicans and (mostly) Democrats and proving the maxim that to unearth criminal behavior, always, always, always follow the money!

We have learned that our elected officials have sent vast fortunes to terrorist groups with eye-popping millions upon millions of dollars. And looky here:

Among other egregious examples of the kinds of waste, fraud, and abuse DOGE has been uncovering is that tens of millions of dead people are on our Social Security rolls, many of them children and people over 115 years old! And look what DOGE found — that $4.7 trillion in payments from the Treasury Department were “almost impossible” to track. That is trillion, with a T!

DOGE has also found that California, New York, and Massachusetts, three deep-blue states — surprise, surprise! — were responsible for over half of the fraudulent unemployment claims in the United States since 2020, again involving massive mountains of money.

Enter the Pearl-Clutchers

OMG, bleat the perpetually sky-is-falling, glass-is-half-empty leftists. This is illegitimate! While, according to Victor Davis Hanson, Musk acts completely under executive authority.

Like Honey, they are shooting the messenger. That is understandable. After all, most of the criminality has been committed by the people they trusted, sent money to, voted for, based their entire belief systems on. Talk about an existential threat!

But unlike Honey, if it were their own personal bank accounts that were robbed, you can be sure they would be squarely in Hank’s camp, going after the crooks with the intention of bringing them to justice.

They remind me of a child having a temper tantrum in Aisle 4 of a supermarket — flailing arms, copious tears, kicking and screaming, crashing the cans and breakable jars off the shelf, simply because Mommy didn’t buy those all-important Animal Crackers.

“Clean-up in Aisle 4” is then blared over the loudspeaker.

That is what DOGE is all about: cleaning up the monumental financial mess that our greedy and corrupt elected officials and government agencies have inflicted on all of us.

Here is a way to keep track of the immense savings — and criminality — DOGE is uncovering every day. So far, literally billions — going on trillions — in fraud, waste and abuse.

May this grand effort to Make America Great — and financially solvent — Again continue unimpeded!

It’s Time to Put Earth Day to Bed and Get on Taking Care of God’s Creations

By Kathleen Marquardt

May 9, 2025

Earth Day popped up its dizzy head again this year. I was silly thinking that, because the whole Earth Day/Climate Change/Global Warming fraud had been exposed so well over the past decade or so, that we would celebrate farmers, ranchers, coal workers, homesteaders, and all the rest of those working to keep God’s green earth truly green and thriving.

Then I got this email from Grist Magazine:

Every year, Earth Day reminds us why telling the full climate story matters.

This isn’t just a day to celebrate the beauty of the natural world — it’s a moment to reckon with how much is at stake. This year, we’re facing intensifying wildfires, historic droughts, and worrying rollbacks to key climate protections.

At Grist, we believe that setbacks aren’t the end of the story — they’re a reason to dig deeper.

Our journalists follow the hard truths: Who’s driving these environmental rollbacks? Who’s profiting from climate denial? And just as importantly — who’s creating real, scalable solutions that deserve a spotlight?

We know climate change is one of the defining challenges of our time. But how we tell the story — the voices we center, the nuance we include, the hope we offer — can change everything.

Grist is here to make sure that story is told truthfully and comprehensively.

It seems that some people/organization leaders have either not awakened to the truth or want to try to keep the funds coming in in a fight against the non-extent fear of Global Warming. It would be (it is) easy to dig deep – back to the early days of Earth Day and find out where the upside-down science came from. Why hasn’t Grist and other purveyors of” Man-made global warming is destroying the earth, so we must rid the earth of most humans. Oh, and take control of every aspect of life on earth.

It all began because some people wanted to control the entire world. They found each other and began planning how to achieve world-dominance.

Cecil Rhodes, in his Confession of Faith, is credited with the idea of recapturing the United States for the British Empire. This idea was to lead to the United Nations and all the necessary steps to erase nationalism and establish a one-world order. And many steps there were, as you can imagine – from setting up eleemosynary (in name only) organizations/foundations ¹ that would form the basic tools of public/private/partnerships associated with the United Nations to reinvent governments around the world – especially the constitutional American one.

In order to scare the pants off us – enough to be willing to do almost anything to rid the world of excess CO2 (which actually keeps us alive) – the powers-that-be on both sides of the political aisle – have fed us lies as facts, lies that tell us if we don’t reduce the earth’s population by over 95%, quit eating meat, quit using fossil fuels. There’s a huge list of forbidden activities if we want to save Mother Earth and her non-human inhabitants. ²

CFACT’s climate specialist, Marc Morano, pointed out, “We can’t distinguish between natural variability and human impact”. (note: this short piece spells it out, short but not at all sweet..

Oh, yes, there really are climate scientists who wholeheartedly disagree with the supposed findings that spurred the Global Biodiversity Assessment. The original study of Global Warming didn’t show that we were facing a dire future. A letter signed by over 50 leading members of the American Meteorological Society warned about the policies promoted by environmental pressure groups. “The policy initiatives derive from highly uncertain scientific theories. They are based on the unsupported assumption that catastrophic global warming follows from the burning of fossil fuel and requires immediate action. We do not agree.” ³

From day one, honest scientists have been telling us “Global warming” was a hoax. And ever since, we get intermittent articles reminding us. For example, in 2007, the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works put out a news release stating harsh sound facts:

“Anthropogenic (man-made) global warming bites the dust,” declared astronomer Dr. Ian Wilson after reviewing the new study which has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Geophysical Research. Another scientist said the peer-reviewed study overturned “in one fell swoop” the climate fears promoted by the UN and former Vice President Al Gore. The study entitled “Heat Capacity, Time Constant, and Sensitivity of Earth’s Climate System,” was authored by Brookhaven National Lab scientist Stephen Schwartz.

I think what we are seeing is an intense drive to bring back the lies the globalist elite and their toadies have promulgated for too many decades. We have a window here that we must take advantage of a window that is open to sound science, reason, logic, and rule of law. Almost all of the tenets we believe in, based our values, attitudes, and beliefs on have been under attack by Socialist one-worlders who have been free to brainwash, program, and indoctrinate across the spectrum of venues from the schools to the churches to the mainstream media — even our courts and governments.

Now it truly is time to write and speak the truth of global warming. It is time for reason and logic to prevail.

Kash Patel the Relentless Force Is a Man on a Mission

By Amil Imani

May 8, 2025

FBI Director Kash Patel is a man on a mission, a relentless force cutting through the fog of deception surrounding January 6, 2021. A recent report from the Dunning-Kruger Times claimed Patel seized the phone and bank records of Nancy Pelosi’s entire staff from that fateful day, alleging a conspiracy to frame patriots and smear the MAGA movement. But here’s the rub: the Dunning-Kruger Times is satire, a biting parody that exaggerates for effect. While the story isn’t factual, it channels a more profound truth—Patel’s unyielding crusade against the Deep State’s narratives makes him the kind of leader who would shake the foundations of the corrupt elite. This article sets the record straight while amplifying Patel’s righteous fight with the same thunderous conviction.

The satirical piece painted a vivid picture: Patel’s FBI combing through bank transfers, Venmo payments, and Uber receipts to expose Pelosi’s aides as orchestrators of January 6 chaos. It’s fiction, not reality—no such seizures have been documented. But the story resonates because it captures the spirit of Patel’s war on the establishment. He’s not chasing coffee receipts or coded texts; he’s targeting the lies that have festered since that day. The Deep State wants you to believe January 6 was a simple riot, a spontaneous act by rogue Trump supporters. Patel knows better, and so do we. The Capitol events were exploited to vilify patriots. While the Dunning-Kruger Times took creative liberties, its satire underscores a real suspicion: the official narrative stinks, and Patel’s the man to blow it apart.

Patel isn’t deterred by satire or smears. A former prosecutor, National Security Council warrior, and author of the Nunes Memo, he has built a career dismantling the establishment’s hoaxes. From exposing the Russia collusion farce to defending January 6 defendants through his Kash Foundation, Patel has proven he is a patriot who fights for the forgotten. The Dunning-Kruger Times may have spun a yarn, but it’s not hard to imagine Patel leading a charge to uncover the truth about January 6. He has faced down the DOJ, shrugged off media hit pieces, and stared into the abyss of grand juries without blinking. This man thrives in the crucible, and the idea of him seizing records to expose a Pelosi-led plot fits his relentless character, even if it is fictional.

Let’s talk facts: Patel’s real work is just as explosive. As FBI Director, he’s positioned to delve into the murky details of January 6—not with satirical flourishes but with hard evidence. The House January 6 Committee, packed with Pelosi loyalists, pushed a one-sided narrative, ignoring inconvenient truths such as the FBI’s informants in the crowd and the questionable role of Capitol security. Patel doesn’t need to chase Venmo payments to know something’s rotten; he can demand answers from agencies, subpoena documents, and grill bureaucrats hiding behind “classified” stamps for too long. The Dunning-Kruger Times may have exaggerated, but it’s not wrong about one thing: Patel terrifies the swamp.

The establishment is desperate to downplay the complexities of January 6. They scream “insurrection” to silence dissent, but Patel isn’t buying it. He’s seen how the Deep State operates—staging crises, twisting facts, and weaponizing power to crush opposition. The satirical report called Pelosi the ringleader of a cabal, and while that’s hyperbole, her influence over the January 6 narrative is undeniable. She handpicked the committee, controlled its scope, and ensured it buried anything that didn’t fit the “Trump’s fault” script. Patel’s fundamental mission isn’t about seizing staff records; it’s about dismantling this rigged system, exposing every lie, and giving voice to the millions who feel betrayed by their government.

The left is already howling, dismissing Patel as a Trump loyalist. Let them. Loyalty to truth, the Constitution, and the American people—that’s what drives him. The Dunning-Kruger Times story, though fake, shines a spotlight on why Patel’s enemies fear him: he’s unstoppable. His book Government Gangsters names the corrupt; his actions shame them, and his leadership at the FBI will bury them. The satire got the details wrong, but the vibe was right—Patel’s a warrior, and the Deep State’s on notice. Every dodged question, every shredded document, and every shady deal from January 6 will face his scrutiny. The American people demand answers, and Patel’s delivering them with a sledgehammer.

So let the satirists spin their tales. They’re merely echoing what patriots already feel: the system is broken, and Kash Patel is the man to fix it. The Dunning-Kruger Times may have fired a fictional shot, but Patel’s real battle is a revolution of truth. He’s not hunting Pelosi’s aides with a dragnet; he’s hunting the lies that have poisoned this nation. The swamp is trembling, and they should be. Patel is coming, and he’s bringing hell with him. The truth will out; when it does, the architects of January 6’s narrative will wish they’d never underestimated the man who dared to fight

The Sissification of Christianity

By Coach Dave Daubenmire

May 8, 2025

Let me state right off the bat that I have always been a competitive guy. It is in my DNA. Maybe that is why my parents named me DAVID, knowing that my big brothers were going to pick on “Baby Dave” as my family called me during my pre-pubescent days. Being the runt of the litter came with a competitive nature and a willingness to take on the giants all around me.

Perhaps that is why competitive athletics became such a strong outlet of mine. Strong men LOVE competitors…underdogs…heroes…fearless men. That is why stadiums are filled across this nation during the fall…we call it football season…where people buy expensive tickets to watch men compete. There is no better place to watch bravery played out.

Americans love watching brave men. We live vicariously through them as we witness the controlled violence before us. Our nation dedicates an entire weekend to Super Bowl Sunday. Churches gather men together to watch the gladiators compete. All men and women love bravery. It is the most noble of character traits.

Noah Webster defined bravery as:

Courage; heroism; undaunted spirit; intrepidity; gallantry; fearlessness of danger; often united with generosity or dignity of mind which despises meanness and cruelty, and disdains to take advantage of a vanquished enemy.

Why is there so little of it in the American Church?

The dictionary uses another term called pusillanimous from which we get the modern term “pussy.” When one is called that derogatory term, it has NOTHING to do with a female body part. Pusillanimous means “Destitute of that strength and firmness of mind which constitute courage, bravery and fortitude; being of weak courage…”

Why is Christianity so pussified? (Sorry friends. That is not vulgar) Pussified means cowardly.

Courage is not synonymous with manhood. Women can also be courageous. But it is nearly impossible to be a REAL MAN and lack courage. My Christian friends, you are least like our Savior when you are cowardly. Bravery is not the absence of fear but rather the OVERCOMING of fear. Christian men are least Christ-like when they shrink in the face of opposition.

Does the church you attend encourage bravery? Does the man in the pulpit exhibit it? Does he extoll you to stand up and speak up against the forces of darkness? Does he encourage you to fight for Christian virtue?

I was shocked a few months ago when President Trump signed an executive order declaring that there are only 2 genders. In that one move, he demonstrated more Christian Testosterone than 90% of America’s pulpits. Most American pastors are pusillanimous in the face of a Luciferian-powered culture.

Franklin Graham didn’t declare it. Neither did Joel Osteen, Rick Warren, Bennie Hinn, or TD Jakes. Nope crass, masculine off-putting Donald Trump was the one who stood before the forces of darkness and defended GOD’S STANDARD. Two genders Baby. Like it or lump it.

There was a day in America when Chivalry was taught to American children clearly defining male/female roles. Feminism destroyed chivalry. Feminism destroyed the family. Somewhere along the line Christianity stopped being about advancing a Kingdom and morphed into personal life-enhancement program.

I did an internet search on CHIVALY. Chivalry is nothing more than God’s design for male/female roles. The 7 traits of Chivalry are:

Protect the weak
Loyalty to God
Protect the weak.
Duty
Honesty
Generosity
Courage

Are those traits modeled and promoted in the luke-warm church that you attend? Did YOUR Pastor have the courage to declare that before Trump did? Did he promote blind obedience to Luciferian government? Did he wear a mask? Shut down the church?

I guess my point is this…modern American Christianity will not draw masculine men. The church is designed to please women. Soft men produce a soft Gospel. Soft Gospels promote compromise. Compromise undermines TRUTH. Only Truth sets people free.

The modern American church has created a pusillanimous, passive, who-am-I-to-judge, weak version of masculine Christianity. Romans 8:19 declares that “For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.”

I once had a friend tell me “I would consider going to church but I don’t want to have to give up my balls.” What is it about the church that would draw a brave man through the doors? Churches no longer sing masculine hymns. They sing sissified love songs to our King.

Do ya’ll remember a character called John the Baptist? You know, the guy who didn’t fit in the standard church scene during Jesus’ days. He was so old-school he even had a diet different from everyone else. But Jesus sure knew who he was. When they asked Jesus who was the greatest Christian ever Jesus answered without hesitation…

“Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist…”

Could it be that Mr. Baptist spoke Truth to power…the same reason that his cousin JESUS got in trouble with the Governmental officials of His day?

Jesus and his cousin John were not pusillanimous. Both of them oozed bravery. John the Baptist would have been a J6er. Would he even be welcome in the American church today?

Why Are We Devolving America’s Western Culture? Can We Save Ourselves?

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 8, 2025

“In such a view of society, however greatly you might wish to benefit from an endless supply of cheap labour, a wider range of cuisine or the salving of a generation’s conscience, you still would not have a right to wholly transform your society. Because that which you inherited that is good should also be passed on. Even were you to decide that some of the views or lifestyles of your ancestors could be improved upon, it does not follow that you should hand over to the next generation a society that is chaotic, fractured and unrecognizable.” Douglas Murray, The Strange Death of Europe: Immigration, Identity, Islam

To tell you the truth, I am worried about America’s future. I’ve watched our country enjoy post WWII, but now in my 78 years, I’m watching a slow methodical decline. I’ve watched it from a perspective few can appreciate as I have traveled across six continents, dozens of cultures, and dozens of languages. I’ve heard dozens of world views —-some compatible and many not so compatible with Western culture. I’ve seen racial trauma on every one of those six continents. I’ve witnessed religious conflict. I’ve observed some really nasty human behavior along the way.

The biggest lesson I learned: you can’t mix incompatible cultures because they always end in conflict. You can’t maintain competing languages in the same country. Why do you think Pakistan and India separated? Answer: totally incompatible religions, cultures and languages!

British author Douglas Murray wrote a classic rendition of Europe’s decline into a devolving collection of third world countries. Today, Sweden is rocked by racial violence with its Muslim/African immigrants. From the most peaceful, prosperous and successful society on this planet, middle eastern and Africa immigrants have trashed Sweden’s schools, trashed entire cities, terrified average Swedes, women can no longer walk safely down the streets of Melmo or Stockholm, “no go” zones everywhere, and now, Islamic leaders have told the Swedes that Sweden is no longer their country. The same happens in Norway, Finland, Great Britain, France, Spain, Germany, Denmark, Belgium, et al.

“And so all the time the European brain has held onto two contradictory things. The first is the dominant established narrative of a generation: that anyone in the world can come to Europe and become a European, and that in order to become a European you merely need to be a person in Europe. The other part of the European brain has spent these years watching and waiting. This part could always recognize that the new arrivals were not only coming in unprecedented numbers but were bringing with them customs that, if not all unprecedented, had certainly not existed in Europe for a long time. The first part of the brain insists that the newcomers will assimilate and that, given time, even the most hard-to-swallow aspects of the culture of the new arrivals will become more recognizably European. Optimism favors the first part of the brain. Events favor the second, which increasingly begins to wonder whether anyone has the time for the changes that are meant to happen.” ―Douglas Murray

Immigrants assimilating is not happening as to becoming a “European.” Muslims NEVER assimilate. They intend to dominate. Notice France’s “no go zones” where Europeans dare not enter. Over 200 of them throughout Europe. In Great Britain, Muslims run hundreds of Sharia Courts that do not pay attention to nor abide by British laws. Female genital mutilation is performed on every Muslin female child. Honor killings continue all over Europe. Women remain half the value of a man. Women are forced into becoming non-beings by wearing a Burka to hide their entire bodies. They cannot be educated under Sharia Law. That’s Europe today, in 2025.

It’s as if Europe’s leaders want to kill their Western Cultures. They want to devolve European countries down to the basics of 6th century Islam’s Sharia Law and political governance. In other words, those leaders want to abolish free speech, women’s rights, animal rights, children’s rights and religious choice.

“A continent which imports the world’s peoples will also import the world’s problems.” —Douglas Murray

Have you visited Detroit, Michigan lately. You won’t see America in “The Motor City.” It’s now “Islam City” that chanted “Death to America” since October 7, 2023 when Hamas slaughtered 1,200 Israeli Jews and took 200 plus hostages to torture, most of them dead at this point.

Have you visited Minneapolis’ “Somaliland” of 125,000 immigrated Somalians with an average IQ of 68? When your collective IQ drops to that level, you have no interest in education, ethics, morality or the Social Contract. Case in point, several years ago, they scammed the American taxpayers of $200 million in EBT card money. Virtually 90 percent of them remain on welfare after 10 years in America. If you’re illiterate, there’s not too much you can do in any workplace.

Have you noticed the numbers? In 1990, only 300 mosques in America. Today? A whopping 2,769 plus mosques dominate the American landscape as their own fortresses of conquest. Over 10,989 mosques in Europe! If you even think for yourself in Islam, you could be/will be decapitated.

Have you noticed that China has purchased 350,000 acres of American farmland. China owns American food processing plants. When it comes to trade, our whole country is “Made in China.”

Within the last month, Islam announced it would build a 400 acre “Islamic City” near Dallas, Texas—completely walled off from Americans and America.

Are you watching the blatant anti-semitism at our universities? What about religious freedoms? Have you heard those rioters want to exterminate Jewish people right here in America?

Did you see the Venezuelan teen gangs attack New York Policeman this past week? What happens when our politicians encourage another 12-20 million illegal aliens on top of the 12 million that were already here previous to Joe Biden? Are you aware that we now house in excess of 85 million foreign-born people in America? Have you noticed they fly Palestinian flags and dozens of other countries’ flags more than Old Glory?

Did you notice last week that an immigrant from India, Shri Thanedar (D-MI) now a U.S. House Member, wrote seven articles of impeachment against President Trump? Do you understand that his world view cannot and does not coalesce nor is it compatible with American world view? He’s a political Covid virus!

What were Biden’s handlers and all of our U.S. Congressional representatives thinking when they encouraged, engineered and invited over 12 million illegal aliens from all over the planet to usurp our laws, and invade our borders? It cost us $150 billion annually for four years, and now billions more to deport them. They brought drugs that killed 270,000 of our kids. And, still, much like Europe’s moronic leaders, we have millions of illegal aliens protected in Sanctuary Cities by our leaders who do not respect our laws or their oaths of office.

Last week, I interviewed on “Zeb At The Ranch” with nationally famous Zeb Bell on his radio station where he asked me if America was going to pull out of this multicultural—immigration nosedive?

I replied, “Given 25 more years with the projected 100 million more legal and illegal immigrants and their birth rates, along with their incompatible cultures and religions, added to America—I don’t see how we’ll survive as an intact, cohesive culture and/or a sustainable civilization. As a matter of fact, I know we won’t.”

What do you think? Do you honestly think we will survive? Does anyone think it’s time for a 20 year pause in all immigration?

Are You Religious Enough?

By Paul Engel

May 7, 2025

Do Catholic Charities act primarily for religious purposes?
Did the Wisconsin Supreme Court violate the First Amendment when they said no?
Should a religious charity act like minister to be eligible for a tax exemption?

The State of Wisconsin exempts religious organizations from their unemployment tax system. Even though everyone agrees that Catholic Charities is controlled by a church, the Wisconsin Supreme Court held that Catholic Charities is not “operated primarily for religious purposes,” and therefore does not qualify for the exemption. Catholic Charities appealed to the Supreme Court to ask if that decision violated the First Amendment.

Background

To understand the primary issue in this case, we have to back up a little bit. In 1939, Congress passed the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA), which required employers to pay a tax on employee wages into an unemployment fund. The fact that this law is a blatant violation of the Constitution is not the issue though. Wisconsin, like many states, passed their own unemployment laws, many very similar to the federal law. This law includes an exception for religious entities operated primarily for religious purposes. Why did the state include this exemption? I think it is best described in the argument by Colin T. Roth, attorney for the Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission:

This religious accommodation solves a particular problem posed by the unemployment insurance system. When determining benefit eligibility, the state must often resolve disputes over whether an employee was discharged for misconduct. If so, no benefits. Now consider churches and their affiliates whose employees express an inculcate religious doctrine through worship, proselytization, and religious education. For those employers, misconduct disputes could often force the state to decide whether employees complied with religious doctrine.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

The question before the court is, when the Wisconsin Supreme Court claimed that Catholic Charities did not qualify for the exemption, did they violate the First Amendment?

Eric C. Rassbach on Behalf of the Petitioners

As always, oral arguments start with the attorney representing those who asked the court to review the case, the petitioners.

RASSBACH: Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the Court:

This case is not complicated. The Wisconsin Supreme Court got it wrong when it interpreted a state-law religious exemption to favor what it called “typical” religious activity and when it held that helping the poor can’t be religious, because secular people help the poor too. To resolve this case this Court need do nothing more than say that the Constitution doesn’t allow courts to do that.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

While there is a lot of legalese in this case, I think this paragraph summarizes Catholic Charities’ complaint. The Wisconsin Supreme Court decided that Catholic Charities wasn’t religious enough. From the petition to the Supreme Court I found:

The court concluded that Catholic Charities’ activities were not religious because:

“[Catholic Charities] and the sub-entities, * * * neither attempt to imbue program participants with the Catholic faith nor supply any religious materials to program participants or employees.”
“Both employment with the organizations and services offered by the organizations are open to all participants regardless of religion.”
Catholic Charities and its sub-entities do not engage “in worship services, religious outreach, ceremony, or religious education.”

Indeed, after assessing the “nature” of Catholic Charities’ activities, the Wisconsin Supreme Court concluded they were “primarily charitable and secular, ” even though Catholic Charities views them as religious.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al. – Petition for a Writ of Certiorari

During oral arguments there was some discussion about the fact that Catholic Charities is independently incorporated, but is overseen by a Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese. But the question that kept coming up is how do you define “religious activities”? More on that later.

That conclusion breaks no new doctrinal ground, and most courts have no difficulty applying religious exemptions constitutionally. The problem here is that Wisconsin draws distinctions along theological lines, something that this Court has repeatedly forbidden.

Wisconsin compares its rule to the ministerial exception. But Wisconsin’s rule would be equally unconstitutional in a ministerial exception context. No court would hold that clergy who preach on Saturday are not ministers because preaching on Sunday is more typical. Nor would any court hold that a religious leader who helps the poor isn’t a minister because secular leaders help the poor too. By that measure, Mother Teresa might not qualify.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

The state tried very hard to equate the unemployment tax exemption to what is known as the “ministerial exception.” This legal practice exempts ministers from certain taxes, but only if they perform certain ministerial duties. That also will be discussed later.

In short, there is nothing wrong with the statutory text here or with how most legislatures and courts deal with religious accommodations. The problem is how the Wisconsin Supreme Court applied the religious purposes exemption.

I welcome the Court’s questions.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

One of the frequently referred to hypothetical situations was brought up by Chief Justice Roberts.

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: What if you have a religion that thinks it’s a sin to eat — eat meat, and they — to promote eating of non-meat dinners they open a restaurant, but it’s only vegetables and, you know, non-meat? Could — do they have a claim to be exempt from state taxes, food taxes, everything else, because that’s a —

RASSBACH: Well —

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: So, assuming it’s a sincerely held belief and it’s important to them, and you’re going to be taxing them — you’re going to be taxing the exercise of their beliefs?

RASSBACH: So I think it depends on whether the statute that’s, you know, imposing the tax says, you know, this applies to meat-eating people or not to meat-eating people. That — that’s what we have to —

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: It just applies — applies across the board. And they claim an exemption from it because this is a part of their religious exercise.

RASSBACH: I — I don’t think that’s — I — I don’t think that that would be — they would necessarily have a claim there because it’s not something where the religious organization is being discriminated against along theological lines. That is, there’s a — a rule across the board.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

I found this hypothetical fairly disingenuous. First off, while there are a few, I am not aware of many restaurants that function for charitable purposes, much less religious ones. If we take Justice Robert’s hypothetical at face value, the question becomes what is the religious purpose? Let’s ignore the vegan question and focus on what the law requires: A religious purpose. If a restaurant is opened for the express purpose of a religious duty like feeding the poor, helping the homeless, or spreading a religious message, then I think it should qualify for the exemption. Yes, there are restaurants that the feed the poor or homeless without a religious duty, which gets into another question the court dealt with. In fact Justice Jackson got right to this point.

JUSTICE JACKSON: So can I just be clear on your argument? Because I’m just wanting to understand it.

It sounds like you are saying that to the extent the state has chosen to exempt religious groups, the line that they are drawing divides Catholic Charities, which don’t perform certain, quote/unquote, “typical” religious activities with respect to their charity and other kinds of religions which may evangelize, proselytize, or whatever. Is that — so it’s the discrimination between Catholic Charities and charities run by other kinds of churches that you are focused on?

RASSBACH: That’s right. Because this is just within a religious exemption that already exists. And they are disfavoring Catholic Charities because they serve non-Catholics because they hire non-Catholics and because they have — they don’t proselytize.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

According to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, the only “religious purposes” they recognize for this exemption is promoting your religion. Several of the justices will delve deeper into this when they question Colin T. Roth, attorney for the Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission.

Now, let’s look at the argument from the United States in support of Catholic Charities.

Curtis E. Gannon For The United States, Supporting The Petitioners

Mr. Gannon, Deputy Solicitor General argued as amicus curiae, or “friend of the court”.

GANNON: Mr. Chief Justice and may it please the Court:

Wisconsin has opted into the cooperative framework of the Federal Unemployment Tax Act and has enacted the federal statutes exemption for religious employers, which applies to certain church-controlled organizations that are, quote, “operated primarily for religious purposes.”

Petitioner serves as the social ministry arm of a diocese of the Catholic Church. They correctly told the Wisconsin Supreme Court that they qualify for the exemption under the statute. That court erred in its reading of the statutory text, and because it explains that the Wisconsin statute conforms with the federal one, this Court should correct its mistake. That would avoid serious constitutional questions, just as this Court did when it construed FUTA’s religious employer exception in St. Martin in 1981.

If the Court reaches the constitutional question, it should reject the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s analysis, which second-guesses the religious nature of sincerely held expressions of faith and, worse, risks discrimination among various faiths by singling out certain activities that are deemed inherently secular.

I welcome the Court’s questions.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

In short, the Department of Justice under the current administration thinks the Wisconsin Supreme Court got it wrong. First, because the Wisconsin state matches the federal one, and previous courts have found what Catholic Charities does is primarily for religious purposes. Second, even if the court doesn’t find on the statutory grounds, the Wisconsin Supreme Court erred by second-guessing Catholic Charities religious purpose.

Justice Gorsuch brought up the idea of proselytization back into the discussion.

JUSTICE GORSUCH: — on the — on the discrimination grounds, why would we have to get into any of that? There’s no dispute that Catholic Charities exists primarily for religious purposes. There’s no dispute about the sincerity of their religious belief.

And the only question is whether it’s treating different religions differently because some proselytize when they provide services and others don’t. Wouldn’t — wouldn’t it just be that simple?

GANNON: I agree with all of that. I –I think that the biggest problem with it is that it grants what we think is a wrong reading of the —

JUSTICE GORSUCH: You say we —

GANNON: — verbatim text of a federal statute.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

This idea that Catholic Charities does not proselytize, or attempt to convert someone to their faith, seems to be a big hang-up for the Wisconsin Supreme Court. This discriminates against different organizations based on how they exercise their religious beliefs.

GANNON: That — that is correct, but we also think that there shouldn’t be a dispute that it is operated primarily for religious purposes because what the Court should not be doing is looking at particular activities and defining them as inherently secular or inherently religious.

JUSTICE GORSUCH: The — that’s the discrimination problem.

GANNON: Yes. That is a similar problem even for purposes of — of construing the statute.

JUSTICE GORSUCH: Got you.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

Interesting, that the Wisconsin Supreme Court, in an attempt to avoid entangling itself in religious issues, entangles itself by defining what is and is not a religious purpose. Justice Jackson attempted to define purpose not based on why something is done, but by what is done.

But there’s another idea of purpose that would be: What is this organization’s activities about? What — what is — what are they offering? And I guess my — my concern is that that view of “purpose” seems to make more sense of the exemption in this case.

I mean, if the entities, if the two hospitals, the Catholic hospital and the secular hospital are performing the same services, I don’t understand why one would be exempt just because they have religious motivation versus the other. I don’t know what — what the statute is doing to make that kind of distinction.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

It seems Justice Jackson has an issue with the definition of the word “purpose.” She equates “purpose” with what is being done and what services are being provided, not why they are provided. Merriam-Webster defines purpose as:

something set up as an object or end to be attained

Purpose – Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary

To use Justice Jackson’s example, a hospital could treat patients simply for the financial gain or because their religious doctrine tells them to heal the sick. One is a religious purpose, the other is not. But there appears to be more to Justice Jackson’s confusion.

JUSTICE JACKSON: No, what I’m saying is if you are right that the — the line that’s being drawn here is about motivation, I don’t understand how the exemption works. There must be some rational reason why Congress would want to exempt the exact same kinds of services being provided just because they are being provided by somebody who’s religiously motivated versus, you know, the restaurant that — you know, we have two identical vegan restaurants. One is being run by people who say this is a tenet of our faith and we’re doing it in order to — to be a ministry for our religion. And the other is run by a person who has so no motivation. What would one, rationally, be under the employment exemption and the other one doesn’t?

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

How about the First Amendment’s requirement that Congress not make a law that prohibits the free-exercise of one’s religion?

JUSTICE JACKSON: If you — if you instead think of purpose as not motivation, if you think of it as the actual services that are being provided and the distinction is in that, then Wisconsin says the reason why we’re exempting novitiates is because if we don’t, we’re going to get entangled in religion as we try to adjudicate those kinds of claims.

That — it — it only makes sense if purpose is, like, focused on the activities, rather than the motivation.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

Actually, Justice Jackson’s statement, “it only makes sense of purpose is motivation not as service” doesn’t make sense. Does a doctor perform an appendectomy for the fee he collects, or is he motivated by a religious duty to heal the sick? Does he waive his fee for tax purposes or because his religion tells him to help the poor? No Justice Jackson, the service is not the purpose, the motivation behind the service is.

Colin T. Roth on Behalf of the Respondents

Now that we’ve been through the arguments for Catholic Charities, it’s time for arguments for Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, or more accurately, how the Wisconsin Supreme Court decided this case. Arguments are presented by Colin T. Roth.

ROTH: Mr. Chief Justice, and may it please the Court:

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

As I’ve already pointed out, the reason for the exemption is to disentangle government from questions of religious doctrine.

So Wisconsin gives those kinds of employers a wide berth by prophylactically exempting them. But because exemption means employees lose state unemployment insurance coverage altogether, exemption is limited to the employers most likely to draw the state into doctrinal disputes.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

So the main concern of the State of Wisconsin, the “compelling government interest” in denying the exemption to Catholic Charities, is their employees won’t be eligible for state unemployment insurance.

So Wisconsin’s search for worship, proselytization, and religious education, much like the ministerial exception, thus does not decide what is religious in the abstract, nor does it discriminate among denominations. Instead, these activities are what reasonably limit the exemption to the employers most likely to pose entanglement problems.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

In their attempt to keep the state out of doctrinal disputes, the State of Wisconsin places itself in the middle of a doctrinal dispute. Specifically, is the only religious purposes someone is exempt for limited to worship, proselytization, and religious education? In effect, the State of Wisconsin limits religious purpose to those actives regularly associated with the conduct of a minister.

Petitioners’ motive-only test has no such limits. It would leave potentially over 1 million employees nationwide without unemployment coverage, like nurses and janitors at religiously affiliated hospitals, even though the state can virtually always determine their benefit eligibility without confronting religious doctrine.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

Mr. Roth is incorrect. Petitioner’s test would only leave this theoretical 1 million employees with state provided unemployment coverage. Catholic Charities actually has its own unemployment insurance which covers these employees.

The State of Wisconsin also seems to ignore the fact that employment is a voluntary act. If someone perceives working for a religiously motivated organization above participating in a compulsory unemployment insurance program, isn’t that their choice? Especially when you consider all of the other non-tangible benefits a religious person may gain from working for such an employer.

And Petitioners’ view that the First Amendment requires a motive-only test would radically expand similar exemptions like 501(c)(3), Title VII, Section 702, and property tax exemptions, all of which examine what organizations do, not simply their motives for acting.

Petitioners’ theory ultimately leads to an all-or-nothing rule, exempt all religious groups or none. Such a rule could incentivize legislatures to cut back on religious accommodations altogether.

I welcome your questions.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

“Petitioners’ theory ultimately leads to an all-or-nothing rule, exempt all religious groups or none.” Isn’t that the point? Should the State of Wisconsin discriminate for one religious group and against another? Isn’t that a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment?

No State shall … deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV

While the arguments before the court have focused on the First Amendment (erroneously I believe), the real problem is the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. The State of Wisconsin is applying the phrase “religious purpose” differently based on how an organization exercises their religion.

Chief Justice Roberts asked Mr. Roth question that I think points to the problem.

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: What is the simplest thing that the Catholic Charities would have to do to qualify for the religious exemption in Wisconsin?

ROTH: I think —

CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Would they — should they have one sign in the dining hall saying: This meal provided by Catholic Charities. If you want to find out about the church, here’s a brochure?

ROTH: No, Your Honor. I think what we’re looking for is precisely what this Court looks for in — in adjudicating the ministerial exception. We’re looking for activities that express and inculcate religious doctrine: worship, proselytization, religious education.

And it’s precisely because it’s those activities that create the entangling problem in the state —

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

Except the state’s view of their entangling problem is so narrow and myopic, they cannot see beyond their desire to have as many workers as possible in their unemployment insurance system.

The core of the state supreme court’s decision was a motive alone is not enough to qualify for this exemption.

Catholic Charities here relied entirely on their motive. We think that affirming that core of the decision suffices to deny them the …

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

The question before the court is: Was the state supreme court wrong when they found that Catholic Charities was not religious enough for the exemption on their motive alone? Put another way, does your religious purpose end at worship, conversion, and education?

Justice Kavanaugh asked Mr. Roth why sincerity of one’s belief or why they engage in these activities shouldn’t be considered.

ROTH: Well, sincerity — I — so I took two hypotheticals given to the other side as examples of the edge cases that maybe we don’t want to be exempting here. One was the — the hospital and one was the vegan restaurant.

I think in both those cases, you’re not going to weed those out on sincerity grounds. The — there’s testimony in the record here — this is record 99 of the lower court record. The archbishop of Milwaukee testified that he oversees multiple Catholic hospitals in the Milwaukee area. And so, that’s clearly — they’re clearly operated for a religious motive. We would never dispute the sincerity of that religious motive. They’re going to be out. Seventh-Day Adventists similarly. It — maybe it’s commercial activity they’re engaging in —

JUSTICE KAVANAUGH: And they’re going to be out, why? Just explain that.

ROTH: They’re going to be out because when they run their vegan restaurants, what — again, what a —

JUSTICE KAVANAUGH: Is that a hospital — I think you were on the hospital one.

ROTH: Oh, the hospital?

JUSTICE KAVANAUGH: Yeah.

ROTH: Well, they’re — they’re out because what the hospital is saying if it’s supervised by the bishop, which is all this statute requires, the bishop will say the reason we run these hospitals is to serve — I mean, Christ healed the sick, and we’re doing the same. And so how can you tell us that that’s not a religious purpose?

They’ll be out, even though 99.9 percent of what goes on at that hospital is healthcare.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

I think Mr. Roth blew up his argument right here. He states that, because a Bishop oversees Catholic Hospitals, they must have a religious purpose. What happened to worship, conversion, and education? In other words, because they are overseen by a Bishop, they have religious motives. What about another hospital that has the exact same motives, but their denomination does not have bishops?

Rebuttal Argument Of Eric C. Rassbach on Behalf of the Petitioners

As always, the attorney for the petitioners has the chance to rebut the other’s arguments.

You know, in — in the end, this is a religiously pluralistic society. And that calls for a generous approach to religious exemptions, not a stingy one. And, you know, Catholic Charities is an integral part of the Catholic Church. It’s carrying out the mission of the Catholic Church when it helps all people. And penalizing them for helping all people without proselytization cannot be reconciled with the pluralism of American society or the religion clauses.

We respectfully request that the Court reverse.

Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc., et al., v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, et al.

I think that’s a pretty sufficient summation of Catholic Charities’ position.

Conclusion

It seems quite obvious that the State of Wisconsin’s desire to have as many employees in their unemployment insurance system as possible is driving them to narrow the religious purpose exemption. They are so focused on the ministerial aspects of religious purpose, they ignored all the other possibilities.

Many years ago, it came to my attention that a missionary group our church supported had their website hacked, and was taken down by the group. Since I both had the skill and resources, I offered to build and host a website for them until they could get their system up and running again. Did I do that to proselytize? Was my purpose to educate? No. I simply saw a religious organization that needed help that I was in a position to provide. Was that a religious purpose?

Mr. Roth kept coming back to the idea was to minimize religious entanglement, to keep the state out of doctrinal debates. He seemed to forget that doctrinal debates may include more than simply worship, conversion, or education. What about the doctrinal debates around abortion, end of life care, helping the poor, etc? Is the state allowed to put a fence around certain activities and label them “religious purposes” without considering why the people engage in those activities?

Could it be that a nurse prefers working at a hospital run by Catholic Charities because she knows they will not ask her to perform procedures that would violate her religious beliefs? Can disaster relief, affordable housing, and providing food not be done for religious purposes, simply because secular organizations do so as well? There are atheist churches, that I assume also educate and proselytize. I’m sure it would surprise these anti-religious people that their organization functions for religious purposes.

As I pointed out, while the parties and judges in this case are examining a First Amendment violation, this cannot be one, simply for the reason that the law in question was not made by Congress.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;

U.S. Constitution – Amendment I

This violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and Article I, Section 18 of the Wisconsin Constitution should not be allowed to stand.

or any preference be given by law to any religious establishments or modes of worship;

Wisconsin Constitution – Article I, Section 18

Beyond that, the fact that the Wisconsin Supreme Court ignored the very Constitution that created them should be of great concern to each and every citizen of that state. I hope they work to rectify this situation quickly.

Trump Should Fire His Lawyers

By Cliff Kincaid

May 7, 2025

A blonde air head on the business channel CNBC asked the CEO of the toymaker Mattel “Is Christmas at risk?” because of Trump’s tariffs on China. President Trump must rise above this nonsense and take charge of American foreign policy, defending his tariffs and his massive deportation plans. He is the elected president.

Is a happy Christmas dependent on cheap Chinese toys? Or is Christmas a celebration of the birth of Christ? It is worth wondering as the Vatican contemplates a new pope and Mother’s Day arrives on May 11. The Virgin Mary cradles the dead Christ in her arms in the famous marble sculpture The Pietà by Michelangelo. It is in Saint Peter’s Basilica, Vatican City, and is now surrounded by shatter-proof glass because a lunatic attacked it with a hammer.

The Vatican is itself surrounded by a wall.

Today’s lunatics with the Soros-funded Indivisible group have announced nationwide protests on June 14 “to deny Trump’s fascist birthday wish” and send him one message: “NO KINGS!”

King? President Trump is acting like the courts have defeated him.

I thought the Trump proposal to pay the foreign invaders to leave was a joke. Then I learned it was true. Then I found out that, if they get paid to leave, they have a chance to come back. This is the latest fiasco from the Trump Administration, as the president defers to his lawyers and prays for the Supreme Court to save him. It is no wonder the White House sent an image of Trump dressed up as the pope. This will not impress the courts. The only thing the judges understand is raw power, which Trump refuses to exercise.

The president, apparently aware he looks weak in the face of a foreign invasion, changed the subject, and proposed to reopen Alcatraz. That could take years.

Trump has become a captive of his lawyers. It happened again in his May 4 interview with “Meet the Press.” Here are the relevant and pitiful exchanges:

KRISTEN WELKER:

And this is the point, sir, about due process. The Constitution says every person, citizens, and non-citizens, deserve due process. Why not push to have him come back, present all of that evidence in court, let a judge decide?

PRES. DONALD TRUMP:

Well, I’ll leave that to the lawyers, and I’ll leave that to the attorney general of the United States… I don’t know much about this gentleman [the foreign terrorist gang member] other than I hear he’s an absolute not good person. And I have very capable legal people, John Sauer, as you know, and all top people. And I have to rely on that to interpret whatever is said by the Supreme Court. Now with that being said, I have tremendous respect for the Supreme Court. Look, three of the people are people I appointed…And I have great respect for the Supreme Court. And I would expect that the attorney general will be doing the right thing.

While the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause applies to all “persons” within the United States, foreign nationals on American soil can be treated differently, according to America’s founding fathers.

Trump has invoked the Alien Enemies Act to send them out of the country because of the presidential finding that Biden’s open borders policy led to an invasion by enemy countries. That law, passed during the time of America’s founding as a nation, permits summarily detaining and deporting civilians identified as enemy agents. It is up to the president, not the courts.

The liberal Brennan Center admits, “The last time the Alien Enemies Act was challenged, in Ludecke v. Watkins in 1948, the Supreme Court upheld President Harry S. Truman’s extended reliance on the law three years after the end of World War II.”

Truman was a Democrat.

The Alien Enemies Act allows the president to deport immigrants from enemy countries during a war, an attempted or threatened invasion, or a “predatory incursion” against U.S. territory. All of that is happening now.

But President Trump waits for his lawyers to win a case at the Supreme Court as the threat grows.

Where Are Our Representatives Deriving Their Authority From If Not “We the People?”

By Bradlee Dean

May 7, 2025

“Liberty is the Right to do what the Law permits.” Charles De Montesquieu

First, I would remind every American that our rights come from God (Read the Declaration of Independence and the Minnesota state preamble and look to Moses and the Ten Commandments above the Minnesota Supreme Court chambers) and not from the state’s generosity.

Secondly, those who represent “We the People” “derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.”

In other words, our representative “limited government” can do what is permitted only by the people (under God) through delegated authority, and they are to represent the people according to His Law (Exodus 20).

“The people’s safety is the Law of God.” -James Otis Jr.

This quote is also inscribed upon the walls of the State Capitol in Minnesota.

Remember that they put their hand on the Bible, swearing to uphold the enumerated laws found within, “So help me God.”

So, I ask, where are these that are now occupying the halls of the state capital deriving their delegated authority to attack their constituents and their God-given rights?

Friends, your said representatives are acting antithetical to our rights, for the Lord never gave the right to do what He forbids or condemns!

“No enactment of man can be considered law unless it conforms to the law of God.” – William Blackstone

What’s worse is that the “good guys” have now taken on their duties to merely highlight the crimes of those whom they refuse to impeach and prosecute (Article II, Section 4; Article I, Section 3, Clause 7 US Constitution).

Furthermore, as Daniel O’Connell rightly stated, “Nothing is politically right which is morally wrong.” A lot of this is going on today.

It is now time to lay the burden of proof on the said representatives in asking where they are deriving their authority from because one thing is certain, it is not from “We the People.”

The Creeping Shadow of Islamization is Spreading Across Texas

By Amil Imani

May 6, 2025

The creeping shadow of Islamization is spreading across America’s heartland, and Collin County, Texas, particularly Plano, is ground zero for this insidious takeover. The East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) and its proposed 402-acre “EPIC City” are not just community projects; they’re a blatant power grab, a fortress of Sharia law being erected in the Lone Star State. This isn’t about diversity or inclusion; it’s about domination, plain and simple. Texas, the land of liberty, is under siege, and the numbers don’t lie: Muslims and their mosques are multiplying, carving out enclaves where American values are trampled underfoot.

Plano, once a beacon of suburban prosperity, now harbors over 10,000 Muslims—a number that has ballooned over the past two decades. This isn’t a coincidence; it’s a calculated influx. The Islamic Association of Collin County (IACC), founded in 1981, claims to serve this swelling population, but it is more than a spiritual hub; it’s a command center for cultural erosion. Plano boasts five mosques, up from just one in 2001, each a stronghold for Islamic ideology. The IACC on Independence Parkway, the Islamic Society of North Texas, and the Islamic Association of North Texas on Custer Road are not just places of worship; they are nerve centers for a community increasingly segregating itself from the American way of life. Add to that the Islamic Center of Frisco, just across the county line, and you have a network of mosques tightening their grip on Collin County’s soul.

EPIC City is the crown jewel of this conquest. A 400-acre sprawl near Josephine, it’s designed to house 1,000 homes, a mosque, a K-12 Islamic school, and a community college – all centered around Islamic values. Don’t be fooled by the developers’ claims of “inclusivity.” This is a Muslim-only utopia, a no-go zone where Sharia reigns supreme. Governor Greg Abbott has sounded the alarm, declaring that this “compound” will never see the light of day, and he’s backed by a dozen state agencies and Attorney General Ken Paxton, who’s digging into EPIC’s shady dealings. The Texas Rangers are investigating potential criminal activities, and the Texas Workforce Commission is probing violations of the Fair Housing Act. EPIC’s funeral home, operating without a license, is just the tip of the iceberg. This isn’t a community; it’s a rogue state in the making.

The numbers tell a grim story. Collin County’s Muslim population is part of Texas’s eighth-largest Muslim community, with 420,000 Muslims statewide. Dallas-Fort Worth alone hosts 62 Sunni and five Shia mosques, with Plano’s five mosques forming a critical node in this network. The Islamic Association of Collin County claims to serve over 10,000 Muslims in Plano, but that’s likely a lowball figure. The rapid growth of mosques—four more since 2001—signals aggressive expansion. Each mosque isn’t just a building; it’s a symbol of conquest, a place where sermons promote submission over freedom, where American laws are sidelined for Quranic edicts.

Texans aren’t blind. In 2015, Plano residents stormed city council meetings to crush a proposed Sharia tribunal that threatened American law. In April 2025, Collin County locals flooded a commissioners’ court meeting, roaring defiance against EPIC City. They see through the lies of “diversity” and “harmony.” They see through the IACC’s fake “bridge-building” via open houses and interfaith talks. These are ploys to soften defenses while Islamic schools churn out kids loyal to Sharia over the Constitution. They know Sharia law, with its brutal punishments and suppression of free speech, has no place in Texas. Mayor John Muns’ cozy “Ramadan Day” at EPIC and backdoor deals with school boards to push Islamic values into classrooms are treasonous.

State Representative Jeff Leach and Senator John Cornyn are leading the charge, with Cornyn demanding a Department of Justice investigation into EPIC’s plans. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has already issued EPIC a cease-and-desist order for beginning construction without permits. The message is clear: Texas will not bow.

But the enemy is relentless. EPIC’s leaders, like resident scholar Yasir Qadhi, spin tales of a “well-integrated” community, but their actions betray their words. The mosque’s history of operating an illegal funeral home and its ties to Community Capital Partners, a for-profit entity under investigation for fraud, expose their true intent: to build an Islamic empire on Texas soil. Plano’s Mayor John B. Muns has been caught cozying up to EPIC, declaring “Ramadan Day” at the mosque and offering private access to school board officials to push Islamic values into public schools. This is betrayal, pure and simple.

The stakes couldn’t be higher. Mosques aren’t just houses of prayer but beachheads for a broader agenda. The mosque serves as a house where Muslim devotees gather for salat (prayer) and worship Allah and his messenger, the Prophet Muhammad. Aside from worshiping Allah, a mosque is used for various reasons. These meeting places are perfect warehouses of indoctrination and future terrorists, who are made to read and understand the principles of Jihad, martyrdom, and Dar ul Harb (“land of war”—any place not Islamized). Mosques cost money, and the money for these warehouses of intolerance comes straight from Saudi Arabia, the number one terrorist state in the world.

The Islamic Association of North Texas hosts “Muslim Day” celebrations, attracting outsiders to soften their defenses. Islamic schools in Plano churn out the next generation, indoctrinated to prioritize Sharia over the Constitution. Halal markets and businesses cater exclusively to Muslims, creating parallel economies that exclude the broader community. This isn’t integration – it’s colonization.

It is tragic that while our courageous service members are losing life and limb in far and away places fighting Islamofascism, useful idiots and servile politicians of the highest rank at home bend over backward to accommodate, even promote, Islamism.

Texas must hold the line. The investigations must crush EPIC’s ambitions. Residents must keep the pressure on, flooding public hearings and demanding accountability from leaders like Muns. Use the Second Amendment, and the spirit of the Alamo still burns bright in Texas. If EPIC City rises, it’s a death knell for American sovereignty in Collin County. Plano’s five mosques and 10,000 Muslims are already a warning shot. Let’s not wait for the next one. Fight now, or Texas falls.

Florida Has a Deadly Problem

By Kat Stansell

May 6, 2025

Florida has a deadly problem, and too many are afraid to speak about it.

Radioactivity at dangerous levels has spread through the air, soil and water in significant parts of the state. This comes from phosphate mining, of which uranium and radium are byproducts. The decay of these produces radon. Per the USDA.

The dreaded disease, cancer is a byproduct of these.

The underlying cancer, possibly the most toxic of all, seems to be in the body politic. This, an observation from those who have been in the battle for years. It is this, which causes the problem to be whisked away under the rug of human greed for money and power.

Always those two, money and power. They are at the root of most of what is wrong with our world today. This is why my attitude towards people – especially politicians – is changing.

I am by nature a forgiving and understanding person; my family taught me well. I cannot forgive, however, those who ignore the death of land and the people who live on it. Still think Mom would be proud.

Yesterday, I posted the first in a series of articles on the toxicity of phosphate mining and the apparent lack of concern – even assistance – given the issue by Florida’s politicians. There were several responses which I’d like to highlight before I write more. Just more of what was to be expected I guess, when you try to herd a sacred cow.

One wrote that the toxicity might be an issue, but that I was to be harshly criticized because some of the data I’d quoted was out of date. He had other and better sources he said. He failed to see – or chose not to – that this first article was but a sampling of the problem; that there is as much conflicting information as the scientific community can come up with. Often, as we know, that, too, is false or purposely misleading. Another, just unsubscribed. I guess the truth hit, somewhere, too close for comfort.

I was sorely tempted to ask how long these folks had been with the government. But, I refrained.

Also, even though the issue has been researched and written about in various Florida news outlets and by universities for several decades, some are still afraid to touch it. Proves beyond the proverbial shadow, just how toxic is the subject in the Sunshine State today.

I am not telling you here anything that the victims and crusaders on radiation poisoning don’t already know, thousands of times over. They have suffered massively.

I just wanted you to know that this issue is something about which “they” do not want you to know. THEREFORE, I will help you to know, and share any and all information I can bring forth on the subject. “They” are not our friends.

The series on radiation toxicity will not be sequential; I will write of other things as I gather information.

Soon, I hope to address Florida’s power issues. There is much the same; state structural issues causing citizens to grossly overpay for grossly underperforming energy sources. I hope this will be one, probably longer, article. The energy truths are readily apparent, and again, the people must know to demand change – before their land and their pocketbooks are destroyed.

A new month always brings new promise. Thanks for being an earnest patriot, and continuing to dig for the truth.

Frugal Actions Save Lives

By Diane Linthicum

May 6, 2025

On March 4, 1925, President Calvin Coolidge shared his thoughts with an assembled crowd of on-lookers attending his Inaugural Address. During his address, President Coolidge said,

“I favor the policy of economy (i.e., frugality), not because I wish to save money, but because I wish to save people.”

Before you step away thinking this guy was nothing but a street-corner preacher, let’s look at the economic strategy he was promoting. The president went on to state the obvious, noting,

“The men and women of this country who toil are the ones who bear the cost of the Government.”

Then he explained,

“Every dollar that we carelessly waste means that their life will be so much the more meager. Every dollar that we prudently save means that their life will be so much the more abundant.

“His summary was, “Economy is idealism in its most practical form.”

Now, this may be a stretch, but I’m hopeful that there’s a chance to move readers toward a clearer understanding of the importance of a virtuous stance on waste, abuse and fraud along with the issue of endless taxes.

In particular, Oregon’s single-party, Democrat-led, tax and spend monopoly needs to recognize the beauty of Coolidge’s philosophy.

Economic consistency is far more important than performative grand-standing against President Trump’s Administration.

Just look at the numbers.

While Gov. Kotek may be proud of net in-migration, this is happening at enormous economic harm because it is coming solely at the hands of Oregon’s Sanctuary State status and former President Biden’s broken border policy.

In general people are not staying or voluntarily moving into Oregon. Instead they are fleeing.

They are leaving because of Oregon’s punitive tax policies, increases in crime, the state’s cost of living, and escalating home prices. Meanwhile, employment and private sector opportunities continue to dry-up.

Public perception of Oregon also lies in shambles—scattered like the abandoned sleeping bags, worn tents, needles and fast-food litter that clutter nearly every street-corner in Portland.

The downward spiral of reduced demand and reduced investment leads to lost revenue for municipal, county and state governments. Those service sectors respond by further reducing output which increases frustrations and angst while hinting to families that, “maybe it’s time to look elsewhere.” It is a typical demand-destruction cycle that goes round and round.

Oregon is in a deadly feed-back loop that is very difficult to stop.
Now… just what does Oregon’s Legislature want to do? Well, they want to kill the golden taxpayer who funds the entire game.

This is sheer folly.

Here are a handful of the destructive ideas being considered:

What can you do?

First, don’t tax yourself into poverty because you think it might help. It doesn’t. Frugality is your friend.

Second, don’t approve local tax levies or new taxing districts out of fear that someone might call you a cheapskate. Remember, frugality is true compassion.

Lastly, call your City-council members, Commissioners, Representatives and Senators and share with them how proud you would feel if they were to exercise true, compassionate economy to save people, families and lives.

Trump Must Free the Slaves, Again

By Cliff Kincaid

May 5, 2025

Abraham Lincoln is sitting at his desk, having signed the Emancipation Proclamation, when an Army General tells him it has been overturned by a judge with a court order. That is one of the great cartoons from the pen of Gary Varvel, a genius at conveying essential truths. He captures in a cartoon the crisis our country would have been in if we had federal judges in power then like we have today. That crisis would have been a failure to save the Republic after the Civil War and give the slaves their freedom.

Today, we are the slaves, hoping for freedom from the ruling elite called the Biden Administration that opened our borders to a foreign invasion by an assortment of aliens that not only broke our laws but murdered our people – our families, friends, and neighbors.

We are in a similar situation today as Lincoln was then, as federal judges constitute the new Confederacy, doing everything possible to defeat the central government, this time headed by President Donald J. Trump. We are in the midst of a life-and-death struggle to save the Republic from a foreign invasion engineered by the Biden administration.

The difference is that the court injunction depicted in the cartoon directed at Lincoln was a fiction and the court injunctions directed at Trump are proliferating and real and are having a very negative impact on his promise to reverse our slide into socialism and a foreign takeover.

That is because Trump is mistakenly accepting their jurisdiction over the foreign policy of the United States.

The solution is that Trump must fire his lawyers and act. He was elected as president and he cannot and should not depend on the Supreme Court to save him.

In one of my columns from 2023, “We Need Another Lincoln,” I wrote about the forces that were arrayed against him, after his surprise victory in 2016 and struggle to win again in 2020. I noted that communists had openly organized a rebellion, in the form of the George Floyd riots, in open violation of the Communist Control Act, a law that was still on the books but not enforced. Congress had abolished internal security panels while Big Tech platforms like YouTube were terminating the accounts of conservatives like myself, wiping out my 500 anti-communist videos. Under Biden, the economy was characterized by more federal spending, inflation, and debt, as well as the country being subjected to an invasion by foreigners.

That was because, in the election of 2020, Trump avoided being another Lincoln, leaving the door open for Joe Biden and his Obama-era personnel to take control. Trump, after encouraging a “peaceful” protest of the election results on January 6, 2021, vacated the White House.

But now that Trump is back in the White House, he is making some of the same mistakes.

A newspaper ad published at the time by Tom Zawistowski, President of the TEA Party affiliated We the People Convention, had advocated executive actions by Trump to save his presidency that were like those implemented by President Abraham Lincoln in his efforts to save the Union during the Civil War. “In the months following the start of the Civil War,” said the Tea Party ad, “President Abraham Lincoln struggled to preserve the Union. Many objected to Lincoln’s extraordinary use of presidential authority, in particular his suspension of the right of Habeas Corpus.”

Habeas Corpus is related to due process. Lincoln identified the enemies of the Republic and had them arrested and detained. The difference between then and now is that Lincoln was going after Americans perceived to be sympathetic to the southern secessionists. Trump has promised to go after illegal non-citizens, making his legal case even more valid and legitimate. He is trying to preserve the Union that Lincoln saved.

At the time, in a message about the January 6 defendants, Trump said, “It’s the weaponization of the Department of Justice. Our country is going – not socialist, they’ve skipped over that – they skipped over socialism. Our country is going communist.”

Trump has had some revenge, with his victory in 2024, but the same anti-American forces have simply shifted their ground to the courts. And the same problem facing Lincoln is now facing him – can he save the Union?

Today, Trump has some control over the Department of Justice – but not the federal courts, and not even the “Republican” Supreme Court. The “weaponization” problem has been transferred from one branch to another.

If Trump in office cannot implement his policies, such as mass deportations, who is the president? And what is the purpose of having elections?

Trump, of course, has the same old problem – an obnoxious and far-left media, singing to the tune of the Democratic Party, the same political grouping opposed to Lincoln. Consider their treatment of the illegal alien invasion. They did not insist that the invaders follow the law when they crashed through our border. They were complicit in the invasion and covered for Biden’s dementia, among other cases of media malpractice.

In his interview with Terry Moran of ABC News, we saw this exchange when Moran insisted on “due process” for the illegal alien invaders:

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Did we give them a hearing when they [the illegal alien invaders] came in?

TERRY MORAN: Well, the law requires that every single person who is going to be deported gets a hearing first.

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Well —

TERRY MORAN: Do you acknowledge that?

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: I’ll — I’ll have to ask the lawyers about that. All I can say is this: If you’re gonna have 21 million people, and if we have to get a lot of ’em out because they’re criminals, we’re gonna have to act fast. We can’t — do you think we can give 21 million trials? Let’s say each trial takes two weeks. Is that what you want us to do —

With this exchange, we see Trump’s problem. He is relying on lawyers who do not understand his constitutional ability and obligation to stop a foreign invasion. They need to read the history books, especially about the Lincoln presidency.

Vice-president J.D. Vance had it right, telling Fox News, “The judge doesn’t decide if the Alien Enemies Act applies – the president does. If you tell the president he can’t deport illegal criminals, you’re saying he can’t be president. We reject that, and so will the Supreme Court.”

The first part of his response was correct. The second was wrong. Depending on the Supreme Court is the wrong way to proceed, even though they have ruled in favor of the law in the past.

In his proclamation, Trump said, “As President of the United States and Commander in Chief, it is my solemn duty to protect the American people from the devastating effects of this invasion.” He added that the alien enemies, “wherever found within any territory subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, are subject to summary apprehension” and therefore can be detained and expelled.

A congressional study noted that there was no opposition to the law and that “The absence of objection to the Alien Enemy Act by the same generation that drafted the Constitution has been held by the Supreme Court to provide evidence of both the Act’s constitutionality and the prevailing understanding of the legal principle underlying it — that is, the fundamentally different position held by aliens on the basis of their formal allegiance to a government with which the United States is at war.”

In the modern era, there are no declarations of war, only resolutions by Congress or declarations by the president about foreign threats. Trump has acted in accordance with his lawful emergency powers. He is trying to save Americans who have been targeted by these alien invaders. In effect, we are today’s slaves, living in fear because Biden opened the country to a hostile foreign takeover. We are the real Americans whose cherished system of law and order has been subverted by an enemy invasion. We are literally fighting for our lives and we elected Trump to stop the invasion.

The study reported, “A bill in the 119th Congress would repeal the Alien Enemy Act, H.R. 630/S. 193. This bill, the Neighbors Not Enemies Act, has been introduced in successive Congresses since the 116th Congress but has never been reported out of committee.”

In other words, the Congress has never repealed it. Every day Trump bows to the courts is another day we have lost to the invasion, possibly losing hundreds more of our citizens to mayhem, murder, and drug trafficking by the Mexican cartels working with the Chinese.

Trump and Vance apparently hope the Supreme Court will uphold what Trump is doing. But what if they reverse course? Then it is time for Trump to be Lincoln and challenge his enemies in Congress to impeach him.

Congressman’s Frontal Lobotomy Was Successful

Authored by Devvy Kidd not AI

May 5, 2025

It was just a matter of time after President Trump legitimately won the election last November before some member of the Democrat/Communist Party USA in Congress files Articles of Impeachment. I knew it was coming. Anyone who followed the disgusting political lawfare war against Trump during his first term knew the cockroaches in Congress would try again if Trump was re-elected.

The first term round of lawsuits didn’t work out as planned: Trump wins dismissal of emoluments court case that challenged legality of payments to his hotels by foreigners, July 10, 2019. Into the sh*t can. But, never let it be said members of the Democrat/Communist Party USA ever give up no matter how many lawsuits they have to file; either members of Congress or some other zealots in the private sector who hate Donald Trump. He’s bringing their gravy train to a halt.

Yet another “citizen” group out there working to destroy their own lives and liberty while screeching about hurting or saving “our democracy”. Some citizens group WHO DOESN’T EVEN KNOW OUR LEGAL FORM OF GOVERNMENT [1] barfed up a petition on the day President Trump was legally inaugurated! Public Interest Group Calls for Immediate Impeachment Investigation Against President Trump, Jan. 20, 2025 – “Trump’s return to the White House poses an unprecedented threat to our democracy.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. (January 20, 2025) – Impeach Trump Again, a non-partisan campaign led by Free Speech For People, launched on Inauguration Day with a petition calling on the U.S. Congress to initiate an immediate impeachment investigation into Donald Trump’s violations of the Emoluments Clauses and into his unlawful, corrupt campaign practices.”

The emoluments Clauses? The real violator of that provision in the U.S. Constitution is Hildebeast Clinton. Hillary Rodham Clinton: Liar, Globalist Traitor, Mine, May 26, 2013[2] & Judge Flapdoodle Strikes Again, Mine, April 2018[3]

Which brings me to Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI), born in India became a citizen in 1988 and is the quintessential example expressed by Benjamin Franklin: “We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.”

The Detroit Free Press back in October 2023, exposed Thanedar’s membership in the Democratic Socialists of America. Thanedar apparently has quit his membership over Palestine and Israel. Official photo 2025, Thanedar is 70 years old.

However, in Thanedar’s case, it’s more like he had a successful frontal lobotomy a long time ago. Just like the other maniac Rep. Jamie Raskin [D], Thanedar absolutely believes his hustle to “get Trump” will succeed:

April 28, 2025: Congressman Shri Thanedar Introduces Articles of Impeachment Against President Donald J. Trump for High Crimes and Misdemeanors

Washington, DC – “Today, Congressman Shri Thanedar (MI-13) introduced articles of impeachment against Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, citing a sweeping abuse of power, flagrant violations of the Constitution, and acts of tyranny that undermine American democracy and threaten the rule of law.

“Donald Trump has repeatedly demonstrated that he is unfit to serve as President and represents a clear and present danger to our nation’s constitution and our democracy,” said Rep. Thanedar. “His unlawful actions have subverted the justice system, violated the separation of powers, and placed personal power and self-interest above public service. We cannot wait for more damage to be done. Congress must act.” Rest at link -brain dead Shri lists Trump’s alleged crimes.

To say the very wealthy Thanedar’s articles of impeachment filing has gone over like rancid meat outside in Arizona summer heat is putting it mildly. Memes galore and postings on X; this one is my favorite. Another one of Satan’s pimps and a sociopath: The Dem Who’s Leading the Impeachment Charge Against Trump Is a Trainwreck, April 30, 2025 – embedded: “This guy owned a pharmaceutical testing lab. In 2010 he went bankrupt, locked the doors and left all the puppies and monkeys he was testing inside to die.” Reference made to this: Humane Society Legislative Fund Condemns Candidate Shri Thanedar’s Alleged Neglect of Animals, May 4, 2018: “The animals’ caretakers had reportedly climbed fences to provide food and water until more solid arrangements were made.”—USA Today: Pet Talk: Rescuing 118 test-lab beagles is a labor of dog love.

“About 170 dogs and monkeys were rescued in 2010 from an abandoned pharmaceutical testing lab owned by Shri Thanedar, a Michigan Democratic gubernatorial candidate currently leading in the polls.”—Huffpost: Over 100 Dogs And Monkeys Were Rescued From Michigan Democrat’s Shuttered Company

“A top Democratic contender in the Michigan governor’s race fought to sell off more than 100 animals at a shuttered pharmaceutical testing facility he owned, court records show, contradicting his account of events that culminated in the neglected animals’ rescue.”—Huffpost: Michigan Gov. Candidate Delayed Rescue Of Animals He Claims He Tried To Save”

Who voted for that POS to serve in Congress? Does he really believe filing articles of impeachment against President Trump is going to succeed? I have no doubt and although (thank God) lobotomies are a thing of the past, this Thanedar cretin acts like someone who had a successful frontal lobotomy. One can only hope (altho’ election fraud is a big factor in Michigan as well as MN, CA, AZ, GA, PA) come 2026 his arse is voted out in their primary. I wouldn’t hold my breath because despite his animal cruelty, Thanedar was elected to Congress in 2023 by voters who apparently approved of his sickening cruelty towards helpless animals. Bless those out there who helped save those abused animals.

Just like President Trump’s first term, here come the high paid lawyer’s forum shopping for judges who hate Trump and lawsuits galore over deporting ILLEGAL aliens no matter how many vicious crimes they are guilty of. All the screeching and bellowing about due process even though ICE not only has detainers but deportation orders for the human garbage we’re trying to get rid of and out of OUR country.

Due process? They aren’t citizens and have no right to be on U.S. soil, period. Millions have scammed the asylum privilege; 93% are thrown out.

Did we see this massive push back when liar and illegitimate president Hussein Obama deported 3 MILLION illegals? No and yes he did during his illegal presidency. Where was AOC yelling and screaming over deporting those poor “undocumented” illegals? She could give a damn about how many women are raped, killed or robbed by illegals. This happens EVERY DAY and has been happening everyday in this country for decades when it could have been stopped in 1993. Did we see all this madness when Eisenhower rounded up and deported about 1.3 MILLION ILLEGALS? No. (VIRAL Video Shows Actress Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Auditioned for Congress, March 12, 2019).

Judges Who Break Federal Law Can And Should Be Prosecuted, May 2, 2025

Just a small number of examples of how judges whether they be lower level in a state or a federal judge are supporting lawlessness and protecting those who have invaded – YES INVADED OUR COUNTRY – along with the most vicious gang members from countries like Venezuela and El Salvador. They’re beyond deranged but one thing for sure: Get them off the bench if elected in a state or:

18 states allow recall from governor down to city councils. I did it here in my city six years ago. I filed the paperwork to recall my city council woman and due to the great job by several individuals, enough signatures were turned in as valid and she was voted out of office. Of course, the retaliation against me as the instigator by certain individuals wasn’t pleasant but our district then elected the best city council man you could ask for so it was worth it. It’s We the People who will save this country but only if enough of us fight back and don’t back down.

Here’s the link which lists all the states, who, how, etc. for recalls. Sometimes a recall isn’t successful but it generally ruins the rotten elected public servant’s political future. My fellow Americans: We have that tool, use it. If your state doesn’t have recall, maybe with enough signatures you can get it on the ballot for citizens in your state.

As for these federal judges: They are completely out of control. Call them miscreants, Trump haters, political party hacks, whatever, but the bottom line is it’s a jurisdiction and constitutional issue and We the People need to ACT NOW or this crusade by federal judges to continue protecting ILLEGAL ALIENS who are robbing, raping, killing, committing other crimes, stealing jobs and getting paid cash under the table, collapsing our health care system and cheating American children because schools are drowning in illegal aliens will not stop. Kissed and blessed by trash like AOC and the Democrat Party in Congress.

House passes bill that seeks to rein in ‘rogue’ judges, limit district court authority – The legislation, titled the No Rogue Rulings Act, passed in a 218-214 vote along party lines. One Democrat did not vote. April 9, 2025 – “The House on Wednesday night passed a bill that seeks to rein in “rogue” district court judges, and limit their authority.

“The legislation, titled the No Rogue Rulings Act, passed by a 218-214 vote along party lines. One Democrat did not vote because of a medical issue.

“The No Rogue Rulings Act would prevent a U.S. district court from issuing any “order providing for injunctive relief, except in the case of such an order that is applicable only to limit the actions of a party to the case before such district court with respect to the party seeking injunctive relief from such district court.”

“It comes after Republican lawmakers called for liberal “rogue” justices to stop issuing nationwide injunctions, which has drastically impacted President Donald Trump’s agenda.” Read: House Passes Issa Legislation to Stop Activist Judges and Their Rogue Rulings

The House passed the bill weeks ago so why hasn’t the Senate voted yes so it can get to President Trump to sign into law? WHY?

Congress.gov:

Latest: Senate – 04/10/2025 Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred
Action: to the Committee on the Judiciary. (All Actions)

Yes, the DemonRATS can hold this up because their rules are different from the House but we have beaten down Democrats many times in the Senate when the GOP held a majority. Why? Because enough voters flooded their offices and we need tens of thousands to do the same if it comes down to that in the Senate to get that Act passed.

THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I HAVE BEEN POUNDING ON THE FRAUDULENT RATIFICATION OF THE SEVENTEENTH AMENDMENT for over two decades. It has to be abolished just like prohibition. How’s The Seventeenth Amendment Working Out for You? Mine, April 14, 2013: “James Madison, known as the Father of the Constitution wrote: “The Senate will be elected absolutely and exclusively by the State legislatures.” John Jay, co-author of The Federalist Papers is quoted: “Jay then informed Governor Clinton that, unlike the Senate, where the two-thirds rule was in force for treaties and impeachment, the lower house had nothing to do with treaties; it represented the people whereas the senate represented the states – for the Federalists always a significant distinction.”

“’The U.S. House of Representatives was to be the legislative body for the people. Each district within the states of the Union would elect an individual to Congress (Art. I, Sec. II) who would represent them under Art. 1, Sec. 8 of the U.S. Constitution. The framers were adamant that the states remain sovereign entities and have equal representation in Congress. Thus, the U.S. Senate would be comprised of two senators from each state. (Art. I, Sec. III)

“Those senators would be elected by their state legislature to go to Washington, DC to represent the interests of the state, not the people. If they didn’t, the state could recall them, fire them and hire someone new. The Senate confirms federal judges and supreme court justices. The Senate must advise and consent to ratification of treaties that have been negotiated and agreed to by the President — Art. II, Section II, U.S. Constitution.”

He who yells the loudest gets the most attention so get on the phone or email your senator as many times as possible until they bring No Rogue Rulings Act to a damn vote so Trump can sign it into law. Otherwise, this obscene situation with judges will continue to grow with more of what we’ve seen to stop Trump. And today, tomorrow and the next day and the next day more Americans will be murdered, killed by drunk drivers here illegally; illegals will continue to rape children, young girls, keep building their vicious gangs and laughing in our faces. Is that what YOU want?

How Do You Make Self-Worth & Self-Confidence Your Greatest Possessions?

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 5, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Blood That Redeems

By Rolaant McKenzie

May 4, 2025

Sometimes, in the pursuit of knowledge to achieve a desired outcome, dubious means are used that result in catastrophic consequences, requiring extraordinary effort to bring about recovery. Such was the case in the 2007 American post-apocalyptic movie I Am Legend.

The film starts in 2009 when British scientist Alice Krippin used a genetically manipulated measles virus to create a cancer vaccine. Though the vaccine cured cancer, insufficient long-term research to uncover any possible damaging side effects was done before releasing it to the public. Unfortunately, those injected with the vaccine eventually developed a lethal pathogen that infected and killed more than 90% of the Earth’s population. The infected who did not die were transformed into mutated humans who, among other things, were extremely vulnerable to sunlight, whose ultraviolet radiation was fatal to them after a moment of exposure. They could only move about at night, where they would prey upon the remaining 1% of human survivors who were naturally immune to the virus.

In a deserted New York City gradually being overtaken by nature, U.S. Army virologist Robert Neville has spent the last three years doing research to find a cure for the virus and searching for food and supplies. He is naturally immune from the disease, and he avoids being killed by the infected by coming out during the day and hiding from them in a heavily fortified house at night when they roam the streets.

As he continues his research in the basement laboratory, Neville discovers a cure for the plague from his own blood. He sends out continuous radio broadcasts telling any survivors to meet him at noon at the South Street Seaport, where he checks each day hoping to find that someone has responded. Eventually, a woman named Anna and a young boy named Ethan arrive. They traveled from Maryland when they heard Neville’s broadcast. Anna tells Neville that they are making their way to a survivors’ colony in Bethel, Vermont.

As his guests returned with Neville to his house, a group of infected people managed to track them and discovered their hiding place. They attacked and invaded the house that night. Neville, Anna, and Ethan retreated to the basement laboratory in which they sealed themselves.

Disregarding Neville’s pleas to let him heal and save them, the infected mob broke through the plexiglass door in order to kill him. He gave a vial of blood with the cure to Anna and shut her and Ethan into a coal chute at the back of the laboratory. To buy time for their escape, Neville sacrificed himself by blowing up the laboratory and the attackers with a grenade.

The next day, Anna and Ethan leave New York City and travel to the colony in Bethel, where they are welcomed by military officers and other survivors. She gives the vial of blood to them. As the film fades, she narrates how Neville’s successful efforts to find a cure for the plague and the sacrifice of his life to preserve it led to the redemption of humanity from the brink of extinction. The light he brought out of darkness became legend.

At a press conference on January 21, 2025, President Donald Trump announced the launching of Stargate LLC, a joint venture of OpenAI, SoftBank, Oracle, and the Emirati investment firm MGX. Its purpose is to invest up to $500 billion over four years to build artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure in the United States.

Among those present at the press conference was Larry Ellison, executive chairman and co-founder of Oracle. Similar to the confident enthusiasm Alice Krippin showed for her cancer vaccine in I Am Legend, Ellison excitedly stated that one of the projects of Stargate would be the development of AI-facilitated early cancer detection and the production of specific mRNA cancer vaccines that could be designed in about 48 hours.

In spite of efforts by technocrats such as Ellison to foster the impression that AI is virtually infallible, the truth of the matter is that it is only as good as the fallible and biased human beings who program it. The passage of several years since the introduction of mRNA injections has not shown them to be safe, effective, and a groundbreaking achievement in disease prevention and treatment as advertised. They have been hazardous to many who have received them and been involved in millions of serious injuries and deaths worldwide (e.g., blood clots, strokes, rapid heart disease, turbo cancer, etc.). AI with these genetic code infusions could prove to be a lethal combination.

Some state and regional authorities, concerned about the dangers of mRNA injections, have pushed back against federal recommendations. For example, Kentucky, Montana, and Idaho have led efforts to place moratoriums on the use of them. Idaho’s Southwest District Health Department, covering six counties, has gone as far as prohibiting the use of these injections, recognizing from observational data that they are far more harmful than beneficial. As local and state-level resistance spreads, Stargate may find it difficult at best to sell the idea that it will develop a miracle cure for cancer using questionable AI and dangerous mRNA technology.

In the Garden of Eden, Eve was deceived by the lies of the serpent (the devil) into rebelling against God by eating of the forbidden fruit. She desired to gain hidden knowledge to achieve a certain outcome, namely, to be like God and be able to determine good and evil apart from Him (Genesis 3). Adam was not deceived by the serpent but also decided to rebel against God along with his wife, thus separating humanity from fellowship with God and bringing the virulent plague of sin and death into the world on all people (Romans 5:12-21).

God did not leave Adam and us, his descendants, without hope (Genesis 3:15). He sent His Son Jesus as a man, God in the flesh, immune from sin, to pay in full our sin debt and reconcile sinners back to God (John 1:1-14, 14:30; Galatians 4:4-5). He lived the perfect life we could not live and proclaimed the gospel during His three-year earthly ministry. At the end, He provided the only cure for the virus of sin. Jesus willingly humbled Himself and sacrificed His life by shedding His blood on the cross to pay in full the penalty of sin, bringing healing redemption and reconciliation with God for anyone who trusts in Him (Philippians 2:6-11).

Jesus is the Light of life who redeems us out of our darkness and grants eternal life (John 1:1-5). Rather than being a legend, His real victory over the grave demonstrates that all who believe in Him will also rise from the dead when He returns and experience the perpetual joy of redemption, complete healing, freedom from sin, and unbroken fellowship with God.

“In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace” (Ephesians 1:7).

The Systematic Killing of America, Part 7

By Pastor Glynn Adams

May 4, 2025

Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7,

“For My people are foolish, they know Me not; they are stupid children and have no understanding. They are shrewd to do evil but to do good they do not know.” (Jeremiah 4:22)

The American People are being destroyed because we have forsaken the ways of God, we are being destroyed because we do not know the knowledge of God (Hosea 4:6), and because we have no idea that Jude 4 warns us that certain evil demonic occult New World Order/One World Government men have systematically crept into our nation unnoticed since the late 1800s and have captured and corrupted our nation and we are so blind and apathetic we have not seen or understood it!!

The Body of Christ in this nation is more than sound asleep, we are disengaged, and we don’t care. We do not know our history or the Word of God. We are deceived about the brutality coming to us. We are waiting for the rapture rather than obeying the LORD Jesus Christ!!! As a result, we are under the severe judgment of God and we are in for a rude awakening, much suffering, bondage, and destruction if we don’t repent and turn from our wicked way or we will never have a Great Awakening. Selah!!!

In my last article, I wrote about the deceptive way the demonic occultist passed the Federal Reserve Act into law. Like the citizens and Body of Christ of today, they rolled over and gave evil men the ability to control our economic system and to manipulate it into endless debt, which is, according to God, is a curse – “the borrower is slave to the lender.” By authorizing a central bank to control the country’s money supply and the value of the dollar, our nation will be forced to go off the gold standard to fiat money. Government spending will skyrocket beyond all expectation, no budgets, just print fake money to pay for projects; we pay the Federal Reserve interest for money they create out of thin air and we get the debt.

Politicians could now commit to their pet projects that cost millions/billions/trillions of dollars more than the resources we have to pay for them. The Federal Reserve in turn, would purchase the “excess” debt by printing more paper money, thereby inflating the economy. States will be seduced by the Federal deep pockets but lacking any mechanism to manufacture debt, would become dependent on Washington DC for revenue, thereby reversing the traditional relationship that existed between state and federal government. And the taxpayers would bear the brunt of bloated governments, thanks to the enactment of a graduated income tax.

Prior to 1913, there was no income tax in America except for a period during the Civil War and the early years of Reconstruction. Our government existed on tariffs and excise taxes. Not being able to spend or borrow heavily, the federal government remained limited in its scope of operations. When the Republican politicians tell you they want smaller government – that is a ball-face lie straight from the pits of hell. Under this current system it can’t be made smaller and they know it.

The Supreme Court ruled in 1895 that federal income tax can only be imposed by Constitutional Amendments. The man who proposed this amendment in Congress was the same senator who advanced the plan for the Federal Reserve was none other than who the deep state owned, Senator Nelson Aldrich. The average John Doe who voted for the approval of the Amendment fancied that the progressive tax would “soak the rich.” Being hoodwinked and stupid, the citizens passed the Constitutional Amendment but were unaware that the rich could channel their wealth into their tax-exempt foundations or they could manufacture losses and expenses to lessen their reported earnings. Twenty years after the passage of the Revenue Act of 1933, a congressional panel discovered that J. P. Morgan, Jr., one of the richest men in America, was not paying any income tax at all. The people had been duped. Today Amazon and other corporations make billions and pay no income tax!!!! Upon passage of the Federal Reserve Act, it was Banker Rothchild who said, “Give me control of a nation’s money and I care not who makes the laws.”

About this time in history, the House of Carnegie, the House of Morgan, House of Rothschild, and the House of Rockefeller begin to think that war was the most effective way to alter the life of an entire people. The trustees concluded that only war could serve to set the stage for world government. With Wilson in the White House, the Committee and their demonic occults, had gained control of the Oval Office having arranged for His election.

Sometime in the 1900s, Carnegie and the House of Morgan begin loaning large sums of money to fund the war against Germany. With a lot of money loans at stake, it was essential to tip the scales in favor of the Allies. An incident had to be manufactured that would provoke the American People to abandon their stance of isolationism and to enter the fracas. It came with the sinking of the Lusitania by a German U-Boat on May 7, 1915. One thousand, one hundred, and ninety-eight civilians, including 128 Americans died. This un-seemingly unprovoked act of aggression against a passenger ocean liner served to arouse anti-German sentiments throughout the country.

Few Americans realized that the sinking and delayed rescue had been planned by Winston Churchill, the Wilson Administration, and J. P. Morgan, who had provided massive loans to Great Britain and the Allied forces. The American Public was not informed that the Lusitania was transporting six million rounds of ammunition and other military munitions to Britain. Upon the order of President Wilson, the ship’s original manifest was hidden away in the archives of the Treasure Department. Nor were they made aware that Churchill and other members of the Admiralty had directed the Lusitania to proceed at considerably reduced speed and without escort to the precise location within the Irish Sea where the German U-Boat was lying in wait.

And the public for the most part, remained oblivious that the Germans had placed large ads in the New York newspapers to dissuade Americans from boarding the ocean liner. Most of the news came from Milner’s Round Table and was circulated by J. P. Morgan, who had gained control of America’s newspapers. Congressman Oscar Callaway inserted this statement within the Congressional Record about Morgan’s ability to control and manipulate the national news. With the media in the control of Morgan and in turn, Rothschild, the American people never really knew the reason the doughboys were being dispatched to the trenches of France.

They had been informed by leading journalists that the cause of the war was the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand on Jan 28, 1914. The citizens of America were shielded from the fact – like all wars – had been sparked by economic interests and that the conflict has been in the works for decades. Friends, this has not changed today. These wealthy cabals of bankers and businessmen have used our military to protect their financial interest overseas and have sacrificed our boys in war after war to protect their financial interest in oil, foreign investments, and property to remove any opposition to their financial interest in any area, all for love of money.

Carefully observe what Gary Allen wrote in “The Rockefeller File.” “Having a big state in an international foreign policy, the Rockefellers always made sure that the Secretary of State and the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency are “their boys.” Marshall, Acheson, Dulles, Herter, Rusk, and Kissinger have all labored fighting wars to make the world safe for Standard Oil. The CIA has served as the State Department and Standard Oil’s enforcement arm, destroying genuine anti-communists movements around the world.

The shadow government is alive and well in America and has been since the early 1900s. However, there is a part of this shadow government that is most powerful working in our nation and our government that most citizens have never heard of. “The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR)” established six years after the Federal Reserve was created, worked to promote an internationalist agenda on behalf of the international banking elite. Where the Fed took control of money and debt, the CFR took control of the ideological foundations of this nation – encompassing the corporate, banking, political, foreign policy, military, media, and academic elite of the nation into generally cohesive overall world view.” Carroll Quigley, “Tragedy and Hope”

As the House of Morgan with its ongoing ties to the House of Rothschild, took the lead in the creation of the Federal Reserve and it also spearheaded the formation of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). In post-World War I America, Morgan and Company wielded almost unlimited power. The wealth of Morgan, Rothschild, Carnegie, Rockefeller, and elites were unmeasurable. Through the years, the CFR remained under the domain of the House of Morgan, Rothschild, and eventually Rockefeller. These banking families controlled and financed it.

They selected its staff, set its agenda, and arranged the placement of its members in key government positions. Its purpose was to align America’s foreign policy with the aim of the Globalists international money cartel in the same manner that the Federal Reserve aligned America’s economic policy. Its activities were never benign and removed from their ultimate goal of accumulation of the world’s wealth. The CFR became a place where enterprising bankers and businessmen gather to gain access to America’s elite. In their arrival in their chosen professions, they would receive an invitation to join the CFR as an agent. At the CFR, they formed alliances with other members to shape public policy through lobbyist, political action committees (PACS) and political contributions.

Policy and strategy are worked out by the Council and reach the President by way of the State Department, which, of course, is largely staffed and always directed by Council members. Richard Harwood, managing editor of The Washington Post, wrote, CFR members are the nearest thing we have to a ruling establishment to the United States. The CFR has become in essence an agency of the United Sates Government and its productions are not objective but are directed overwhelmingly at promoting the globalists concept. “An end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal assault.”

Within the hallowed halls of the CFR’s Pratt House in New York, including its 55,000-volume library, a carefully selected group of candidates are groomed for prominent position of power in the federal government. Proof of this resides in the fact that by 2017, twenty-seven Secretaries of State, nineteen Secretaries of the Treasury, fifteen Secretaries of Defense and hundreds of other federal department heads have been CFR members, along with twenty-one of the twenty-four CIA directors, and every chairman of the Federal Reserve since 1951. In addition, studies generated by the CFR have resulted in the establishment of such international institutions as the United Nations, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund. Thanks to President Dwight David Eisenhower and the Dulles brothers, the U.S. State Department by this time was firmly under the council’s control.

The God we serve is all powerful but Jesus left His Body on this earth to manage it and Christians in America have not managed our land; instead, they have been managed in deception. The fact remains that God many years ago has already spoken of our situation in America and how to solve it. It is found in Numbers 33:55-56, “But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall come about that those whom you let remain of them will become as pricks in your eyes and as thorns in your sides, and they shall trouble you in the land in which you live. And it shall come about that as I plan to do to them, so I will do to you.” “Hath God Really Said?” Yes, we just read it. I Corinthians 10:11, and Romans 15:4, states the Old Testament was written for our example and our instruction that we might learn the valuable lessons from God in it!!!

America had better wake up and resist this enemy in our land. Many do not believe that we have much time left. If we don’t act to resist, then all these curses, demons, evil spirits, doctrine of demons, demonic strongholds, rulers, high places, witches, and all the powers of darkness from hell will continue to overcome us and rule over us. We shall suffer greatly in torment, or rejoice in the glory of victory; the choice is ours to make.

Remnant of God, this is our shining hour but we must get off our ass, stop doing these endless seminars after seminars for the entertainment of the Remnant. Those who are leaders must step up and get us organized, formulate a national plan, and start effectively resisting these evil men and politicians embedded in our government and nation!!! God will meet us on the battlefield but we must first show up!!! We know the Committee of 300 and the CFR have a plan and are implementing it every day so we must not ignore any longer what these Globalists and demonic occults are doing in our nation!!!!!

More on the Systematic Killing of America III next week. God bless, I remain His warrior and watchman, Glynn Adams. (Thanks to “The Killing of Uncle Sam” by Pastor Rodney Howard Browne and Paul I.

Try It the God’s Way

By Rob Pue

May 4, 2025

In a recent message, I explained the concept of men being servant leaders in their homes, and to their wives. I explained how most modern marriages are set up for failure right from the start, when both partners expect to give 50% of their effort toward the relationship. A 50-50 situation is most common today, as wives expect their husbands to contribute half of everything and the husband expects the wife to contribute the other half.

By our human reasoning, this sounds like the ideal situation, but as I explained previously, when each partner contributes 50%, that means that each person fails, and I used the analogy of getting a 50% grade on a test in school. If you get 50% on a test, you fail. In marriage, 50% also equals failure, and not just the failure of one, but the failure of both partners, and then the failure of the marriage itself.

I firmly believe that husbands should serve their wives while being the leaders of their homes. I understand this goes contrary to what many Christians have been taught as they cherry-pick Ephesians 5: 22 and 23: “Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the Church.” I know there are many professing Christian men out there who love to quote this verse of Scripture as they assert their domination, seeking to be Master of their domain. And they think it’s biblical.

Somehow, they miss the part that says, “…as also Christ is head of the Church.” Men, are you treating your wife properly or are you one who thinks “Wives submit to your own husbands” means that when you get married, you acquire a slave? Understand, we’re Christians here — not Muslims. In Islam, the wife does, indeed, become her husband’s slave. In Christianity, the husband leads his home by serving his wife; attending to her needs, providing for her, protecting her, cherishing her as “more precious than jewels.” As the head of the Church, Christ literally gave His life for His Bride.

Now, many will say, “absolutely… I would readily give up my life for my wife.” Really? Are you doing that now? Are you putting her needs, desires and interests ahead of your own? Or are you saving 50% of yourself (your time, your attention, your recreation, your free time, your disposable income) — for yourself? So…you’d give up your life for your wife… but will you give up your television time, your fishing and hunting time? Will you give up something you’ve been wanting in favor of blessing your precious wife with something she’s been wanting? Will you give up the rest and relaxation you feel you need and deserve in order to do tasks for your wife that she really hates to do? And one more: are you willing to give up the porn you’ve been viewing? I know, for many of you, that one stung a little bit. But it’s a valid question, and one not talked about in “Christian” circles — probably because just as many professing Christians engage in pornography as do non-Christians; they just do it in secret.

Let’s read on. Ephesians 5:25, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the Church and gave Himself for her.” As Christians, we’re to live our lives here on this earth in continual sanctification, becoming more like Christ as we mature in our faith each day. So, we’re to be the leaders in our homes, and like Christ, we are to love — we’re to be servant leaders…ministers. And if you serve your wife, love her, adore her, cherish her and put her second only to God Himself in your life, giving not 50% but 100% of your time attention and affection to her, I believe you’ll find your wife will not only respect and honor you but willingly submit herself to your needs as well. This is the biblical recipe for a Godly marriage.

Our problem today is that so many are self-centered. We live in a literal toxic environment — from the chemicals and poisons in the air we breathe, to the water we drink and the food we eat. But it’s worse than that. Today we live in a spiritually toxic environment as well, surrounded by the wicked enticements of self-indulgence and self-interest. It’s everywhere we turn, from entertainment and social media to our pop culture at large. We’ve been brainwashed by the enemy to regard our selves as entitled and deserving of everything. The trouble is, when everyone has this mindset, there’s little to no real serving going on, and Christ calls us to be servants of all. He calls us to die to self and instead serve others, especially our dear spouses. Yes, like everything else, Satan has turned God’s perfect design and plan to the complete opposite and our worldly lusts and passions have lured us into his trap.

And like everything else, we must seek the guidance of God’s Word as we navigate this short life we have in this earthly realm. Again, constant sanctification. Constantly seeking to know and do God’s will — and follow His plan. We can’t very well do that if we don’t even know His will or His plan. But if you study and understand God’s Word on a regular, daily basis it becomes very easy and crystal clear how we’re to live and how we’re to treat and interact with each other.

So many today view their marriages as a curse rather than the greatest blessing in their lives. Men refer to their wives as “the old ball and chain.” A burden, ruining all the fun. Wives refer to their husbands as “my old man.” Undesirable, fat, lazy and boring. But once upon a time these two were deeply in love. All they could think about was each other. What in the world happened? “Self” happened, that’s what. The honeymoon quickly ended as each partner sought to fulfill their own desires, rather than serve one another as they did when they were “courting.” When you do that, the attraction, love and desire you have for one another will obviously reverse itself and of course you’ll view your spouse as a burden, baggage, undesirable, fat, lazy and boring. So… how is that “serving yourself” stuff working out now? Don’t you see? The Bible is right again! Husbands, love your wives and give yourself up for her! Wives, submit to your husbands as unto the Lord! It’s all right there!

But what happens when one spouse is following Christ, becoming more spiritually mature and living their lives in faith, relying on God and revering Him, but the other is not? First of all, choose your mate wisely. I understand the infatuation and passion you feel in the beginning. You may be a strong, faithful Christ-follower, but your beloved may only be a “baby Christian” or may even only express a slight interest in the things of God, so that you’ll find them acceptable. You’re so “in love,” you believe this doesn’t really matter that much, because you think once you’re married, you’ll grow together in the Lord.

That doesn’t always happen. In 2nd Corinthians 6, we’re warned to not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. This is especially important when it comes to marriage. When the honeymoon and the infatuation inevitably ends, you may find yourself in a life-long union with a person who thinks you’re crazy because of your deep faith and love for God. You may wait a lifetime for them to come to Christ, even when you’re leading by example and selflessly serving them, modeling a true Christ-following lifestyle for them.

You might have a deep desire to pray together, serve God together, follow His commandments together, but your spouse may have zero interest in any of those things. Scripture tells us, however, that we’re to stay together. The only excuse for divorce anywhere in God’s Word is in the case of adultery, and this is a worst-case scenario and very grievous to God. In 1 Corinthians 7, we have this: “If any brother has an unbelieving wife and she is willing to live with him, he must not leave her. Also, if any woman has an unbelieving husband and he is willing to live with her, she must not leave her husband. For the unbelieving husband is set apart for God by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is set apart for God by the husband.”

1 Peter 3:7 says, “Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.” These verses tell me that even if your spouse is an unbeliever, you should still — steadfastly and consistently — minister to them through servant leadership, because you’re heirs together of the grace of life. You may not be able to pray together, but you must still pray for your unbelieving mate — and do so in faith that their hearts may be opened to the Lord. And men, give honor to your wife under all circumstances. If you don’t, Scripture warns that your prayers may be hindered.

And again, when you pray, do so in faith. You may have been the perfect spouse, patient, kind, loving and serving your mate for decades, praying for them to come to Christ and still you haven’t seen any fruit from your efforts. I understand this can be extremely frustrating. But if you’ve been faithful to plant the seed, if you’ve been faithful to water it and tend to it, then continue to petition God in prayer on your mate’s behalf. “And He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.”

That’s Philippians 1:6, and though it’s actually an encouragement from Paul and Timothy to the new believers in Philippi, I believe it’s also applicable in the case of an unbelieving spouse. Since you and your mate are no longer two but one flesh when you’re married, God’s promises are for both of you. But understand that the work of your spouse’s salvation is not yours to do. You are to plant the seed, water it, tend to it, serve it and pray for it. But it is God who will be doing the miracle — not you.

Be encouraged though. I know of several examples where it literally took a lifetime together before an unbelieving spouse came to Christ in repentance and true faith. Sometimes we get the blessing from God of being allowed to see the fruits of our labors. In other cases, the seeds we plant don’t bloom until after our time on this earth is up. Hang in there. Do your part. Continue on in faith and confidence in God. Don’t let the doubts of the enemy frustrate you, and don’t grow weary in well doing.

In conclusion on this topic, many marriages today are in turmoil. Many couples are incredibly unhappy in their marriages. Some are unequally yoked. If you’re in a situation like this, just know that it doesn’t need to be this way. There is hope. But you must do your part.

Memories are a wonderful gift from God. They teach us to avoid dangers and mistakes we made when we didn’t know any better. But our memories can also be a blessing as we recall the deep love and connection we had with our spouses when we were “courting.” In your mind, go back to those days, and remember that love. Yes, it was a feeling then, an emotion. But as we progress together in life, “love” transforms from a mere superficial feeling to intentional actions. If you want that newlywed “spark” back in a wounded and dying relationship, simply do what you did “way back when.” You pursued, you served, you gave, you overlooked imperfections and focused on the good things. Do this again. If you’re in what you consider a “bad marriage,” this can only help. Do so with good and Godly intentions and combine it with fervent prayer — praying with confidence and faith — and He will bless your efforts.

Our lifetimes here are too short to waste time and expend energy on doing life the wrong way. God Himself has laid out the plan for us in His Holy Word, the Bible. Study it, and you will find every answer you’re seeking. At the same time, realize that the enemy of our souls, Satan, has brainwashed entire societies and cultures around the world with lies that are the exact opposite of God’s perfect plan for us.

It’s a spiritual battle we’re in. Satan attacks children and families relentlessly, but to do that, he first must get a foot in the door by attacking husbands and wives in their marriages. One of his most effective tools is whispering in our ears that we “deserve better,” that we are “entitled” to whatever we want, that we should come first. Jesus said the opposite. He said we must be the servant of all, laying down our lives for our brothers and sisters in Christ, and especially within the covenant we made with our spouses in marriage. So, try it God’s way. Do the opposite of what Satan has made popular through his clever marketing of self-indulgence. Romans 12:2, “And be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Don’t just read that. Do it. You’ve seen where doing things your way has gotten you. Isn’t it time to try it God’s way?

Using Education to Attack Farmlands?

By Lynne M. Taylor

May 3, 2025

If you’ve heard of “STEM” (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) or STEAM (the “A” stands for Arts) or even STREAM (the “R” stands for reading/writing); you may NOT know that there’s a new acronym around called “STEAMA”. Now, depending on where you live in the US (and this can be found repeated internationally), the “A” may stand for agriculture OR athletics. However, what STEAMA stands for, both agriculture and athletics?!

What does this mean? Is there a code to these acronyms? How does this connect to taking farmland away? All these questions, and others will be answered.

STEM’s roots:

These can be traced to the United Nations and their connection to the NSF (National Science Foundation). STEM was the marketing tool to insert into education about the time that Common Core State Standards arrived in our schools. This was a purposed move by the unity between the United States and the United Nations. How did this happen? Simple: a 2004 agreement between UNESCO (the education and culture arm of the UN) and Bill Gates was entered into to create a global curriculum for the entire world. Curriculum means testing, so when Bill Gates stated that school assessments would drive curriculum, he wasn’t lying, he was telling us the plan.

STEM was purposefully attached to Common Core in the hopes the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) would be further embedded in our nations. For the USA, a report given to the former President was from the PCAST group. What’s PCAST? It’s an acronym for President’s Council of Advisors for Science and Technology. Along with the Nation’s Report Card, the PCAST Report was the second document he was handed. If you know the education timeline, like I do, you know that those 2 reports were key to seeing the ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act) become the law of the land. Other nations have inserted STEM and all its other aliases in different ways, but the agenda is the same.

Create a STEM education for a STEM people with STEM jobs in a STEM nation for the greater global good. This agenda was spelled out in that PCAST Report. [1]

By now you may be rolling your eyes. I don’t blame you. I’ve heard the arguments before: “We need science, technology and engineering. We have math. These aren’t BAD!” I agree to a point, yes, we have had science and math for centuries. We’ve also seen engineering for as long as we’ve had science and math. Technology, in its present form, is fairly new. However, where the problem is, is you’ve been sold an acronym that’s full of agenda and contains very LITTLE true science or math. The technology and engineering portions are also not very worthy. It’s because, once again, education has become work/skill based, not academically equipped! If this isn’t enough, consider that STEM is forcing students of all ages to be aligned to Common Core Standards/Career Tech Education! STEM also aligns to regionalism. The UN loves regionalism. Regionalism was also embedded in ESSA for assessing students.[2]

If you missed the former APC articles I wrote exposing our schools/towns and other organizations aligning our cultures to the SDGs, be sure to read how color psychology is used against us.[3] If you missed the grooming our local citizens to accept the SDGs in a Smart City format, be sure to read it![4]

Meet STEAMA for agriculture:

Now that you know a brief bit of the roots of STEM (and let’s not forget that the UN is rooted in secular humanism and satanic leanings), let’s fast forward to the latest version. I’ll start with the agriculture angle. I live in North Carolina. NC has a huge agriculture footprint, but it’s shrinking daily. More and more farms are giving up on agriculture and renting good farmland out to solar panels. I know NC is not exclusive in this. Back in 2024, NC was ranked 2nd in the nation for most farmland threatened by solar panels.[5] Across the world, there’s growing concern for millions of farmland acres lost to solar panels.[6]

You may already know about solar panels, however, STEAMA is being used by one school district in the region of NC where farming is a lifeline. Somehow ‘coding’ (which is writing computer programming and is being taught to create cyber snooping) can better agriculture. Don’t gloss over the fact that this district is beginning the indoctrination by 2nd grade! Don’t miss the superintendent gloating how globally ready the students will become![7]

In PA, STEAMA is being introduced at a very young age. When you read the website, it all sounds so innocent, too. SEL or Social Emotional Learning is a huge part of STEM/STEAM/STREAM/STEAMA. How? It teaches students (all ages) what to think, not how. So when you see ‘critical thinking’ don’t be fooled. Classic critical thinking isn’t applicable to young children, it’s too complicated. That’s why education reserved it for high school.[8] If you’d like more information on how SEL further frustrates students, be sure to read my archived article on the topic.[9]

Meet STEAMA for Athletics:

Interestingly enough, I found this form in FL.[10] It’s from the description of the game portion of STEAMA that mental health is a priority from a comprehensive aspect. My friends, mental health is very important, but when you factor in the over prescribing of psychotropic drugs on young people, the high stakes tests and assessments used to label students with disorders that they may or may not truly have is alarming. Factor in that the schools, due to the funding they receive and the ESSA mandates for healthy students, this means that organizations outside of the school are overreaching into the schools. Especially in a community wide accessible form!

STEM, Tiger Woods Foundation and US Dept. of Defense:

Many famous people, including Mr.Woods, have thrown their support behind the UN & SDGs, even if they don’t realize it. While the Foundation[11] is doing great work to reach many students, it is concerning what is involved. Do we really need more of our society to embrace globalization?! You might be asking yourself how is the US Dept of Defense involved with a sports icon and his foundation. Well, it’s easy, the US Dept of Defense has its own STEM Ambassador Program. [12]

On to Massachusetts!

We all are aware of what a SMART City is supposed to look like, but what about a STEAM City? Americans, we have one! Cambridge, MA has united the entire town to become one. Why Cambridge? Well, according to the website this joint project[13] ¹³ (combines education, healthcare and the public library) to bring about a city-wide mindset based in STEAM. Cambridge bragged on itself about being a ‘cutting edge biotechnology’ city. The mindset involved contains 6 aspects. I’m not going to use the flashy-gives-me-good-vibes labels used on the website. I’m giving you the agenda behind the flashes.

#1: data collection (code for ‘observe’)
#2: use technology for ‘your’ purposes (code for ‘develop craft’)
#3: collectivism (code for ‘reflect’)
#4: collaborate (code for ‘engage’)
#5: be a good follower (code for ‘express’)
#6: test, test and test again (code for ‘explore’)

Land Grab Bag:

Would you be okay with teaching children about land grabbing? Obviously, many don’t see an issue. However, we’ve seen education as a tool to teach that many previously unaccepted agendas are now ‘cool’. Why not get them used to seeing something that’s not theirs being taken away to give to a system which cares more about its alignment and revenues than protecting people? One such game exists[14] (technology with SDG #1 or Zero Poverty) is using the slums of Mumbai as a way to ‘land grab’. This will also loosely tie to SDG #15 (Life on Land). This article discussed ‘global’ land rights.[15]

From the US, an article about the ‘green grab’ of farmland.[16]

The global initiative to “learn STEM” is all encompassing.[17] The acronym spells GIRLS, but it’s not about women it’s about the global reach for a STEM existence.

This STEAMA is directly tied to AI (Artificial Intelligence) and calls it ‘an outcome-based art’.[18]

Using STEM/STEAM/STREAM/STEAMA to attach to gender equality and land values as a way to continue to harp on SDG #5 (Gender Equality).[19]

Regardless of what type of science this is based on, it brings up an excellent question: “Are the SDGs doing more harm to our lands than the Goals promote?”[20]

Make NO Mistake:

My friends, as I write this I’m aware of how STEM and all its other names is tying to CRISPR technology to be a human (literal) game changer for our bodies. We cannot simply read this, sigh, shake our fists in the air and do nothing. We MUST expose this. I’m leaving you with my entire catalog of archived research to help you learn and share the moves being made right under our noses.[21]

Homogenization and the Dissolution of Identity

By Ms. Smallback

May 3, 2025

Homogenization of milk was introduced in America in the 1930s, and even earlier in France in 1899. Milk in its natural form has fat globules that rise to the top of the milk product, known as cream and from where we also get buttermilk and butter itself. The process of homogenization breaks down the fat globules into much smaller particles to prevent them from rising to the top and making cream, in essence making the milk of even and equal particles.

It is increasingly difficult to find information counter-narrative, or counter-government approved, (think Ministry of Truth), so to find how homogenized milk may be less than ideal for the human body is a lesson in patience and diligence. You must search long and hard and sidestep the incessant propaganda of how much better it must be for your body because it breaks down the fat globules which obviously (duh!) make it easier for the body to digest and helps alleviate lactose intolerance. (Even AI will tell you that, and everyone knows AI is the ultimate truth teller -wink, wink.)

Somehow the millennia of humanity before modern times made it through history on non-homogenized milk without notable injury, but modern times necessitate modern behaviors. If you look long and hard at the non-chemical process of homogenization, the unnatural breakdown of fat globules (that millennia had been consuming up until just over a century ago) is a process that makes the fat and protein globules much smaller, improving the texture for commercialization. But it also changes the protein structure of the molecules, bypassing the digestive systems filter process.

One more paragraph on this, but this paper is not about milk…

Breaking down the protein structures of milk through homogenization creates an inability for the body’s normal filtration system for foreign invaders to miss anything that may need filtered out, like hormones, steroids (if the cow had them), and proteins that are damaging to the human system. Before homogenization, the digestive system was able to recognize possible damaging foreign substances as well as undigested proteins, but after homogenization the body allows them through, ultimately leading to possible health difficulties, including lactose intolerance. To date, I have not known a single person who was lactose intolerant who had trouble drinking raw milk, but you won’t find much information on that through normal information channels. [example one, example two]

Basically, the homogenization process changes the identity of milk and the milk markers that make it uniquely milk. The land flowing with “milk and honey” has been redefined, so to speak. (Don’t even start me on pasteurization.) The commercialization of the food industry has created a host of ills against the human body for the benefit of the beast system, and humanity is the worse for it. But hey, milk is smoother this way, right?

My husband and I recently watched A Taste of Ireland, a touring group that shares the history and identity of Ireland to anyone interested through the art of song and dance. We even visited Ireland last year, drove their back roads and talked to some locals. We fell in love with the country. Their songs aren’t like ours; their dances aren’t like ours; and their history is not like ours.

That’s why it’s interesting to us. That’s why we want to go see it and learn about it.

And yet today, in this world, there is an aggressive agenda to homogenize cultures and people and nations. The World Economic Forum and its diabolical mouthpieces have endeavored to flood individual nations with cultures and peoples from other nations, at the costly and eventual deadly consequence of individualism, culture, tradition and identity. It is the ultimate globalist agenda.

It has been deemed racist to have any defense of a homeland population, not just in America, but everywhere. The puppet masters flooded the European nations with migrants in their great experiment, after buying out or threatening their government leaders into acquiescing to the plan. Now the streets of London, Dublin, Paris and Berlin look like a completely different demographic than UK, Ireland, France and Germany. Homogenized.

But the globules being broken down to slip through the filtration system are going to cause some problems to the body overall.

Now Texas has a community of Muslims who don’t want Americans in it, and don’t want to follow American laws (EPIC in Plano) and a community of illegal migrants run by gangs (Colony Ridge outside of Houston). Amarillo has a community of Somalians who do not care to follow American laws or health practices. Dearborn, Michigan is considered an American Mecca. These are just off the top of my head.

What happened to the identity of a nation? Or is it just the white, historically-precedented Christian nations that need homogenized? In the UK (a historically white, Christian nation) they are trying to pass laws to make it illegal to walk your dogs outside because the Muslims find dogs offensive. And yet an identifying marker of the UK and other white (formerly) Christian nations is a love for dogs and pets.

I have a friend in Idaho who has been attacked by Muslims for walking her dogs in a public park.

Truly the world’s handlers do not want individual nations with individual identities. And they most definitely do not want white Christian identities, regardless of the history and precedence of a geography.

The body’s digestive system’s filter is designed to pull out and eliminate from the human body, anything trying to enter that is foreign and will not properly digest for the health of the body. Homogenizing the milk bypasses the filter and allows foreign “threats”, so to speak, to enter the body and potentially cause havoc in other areas. Proteins are not properly broken down, causing allergies and autoimmune difficulties to the body. Steroids slip under the radar and into the bloodstream instead of isolated and evicted from the body. But don’t worry, the texture is more palatable and marketable, so they say.

Democrats and media have made a show of trying to bring back a deported MS-13 criminal from the lawful process of removing threats to the safety of the American community. They have spun the story with dramatic emotional appeals. And it’s getting easier and easier to sell this nonsense to Americans. Why? Because America is losing its sense of identity.

If you don’t know that America was founded by the sacrifices of (mainly white) men and women who believed worshiping the God of the Bible was a fundamental right, and that it is a fundamental right to speak one’s mind and conviction without threat, and that it is a fundamental right to conduct one’s life by the conviction of one’s heart as long as it doesn’t hurt one’s neighbor. If you don’t know the identity, the heritage, the purpose of the nation you live in, then you are easily deceived and blown by every competing ideology presented to you.

We used to tell our kids when they went out and about for functions in society at large, “Represent! Remember you’re a Smallback. Remember you’re a child of God.” If you don’t know your heritage, you don’t know your identity. You’ll make it whatever fancies you at the moment, or whatever tempts you to be like it, or whatever threatens you if you’re not like it. Crests and coat of arms and family monograms were identity markers. It represented identity, and the identity was in large part to the heritage.

We live in a modern society that’s rapidly forgetting its identity. The globules have been homogenized and the cream isn’t rising to the top. It’s all being spread out like it’s the same thing. But it’s not. So now when a foreign substance (person, ideology, belief system, etc.) slips through the filtration system designed to keep the body (nation) healthy, there’s no defense for the body. It weakens it. It compromises it. It changes it.

It’s not that milk is bad for the body. Six millennia will tell us the opposite. It’s that homogenizing it so that it’s not recognizable to the body’s filter system is bad for the body. Steroids slip through. Proteins don’t get broken down correctly. The body starts responding by developing autoimmunities, turning against itself, constantly inflamed.

If you identify as a Muslim and think beating your wife and daughters is acceptable, then go to the nation that believes as you do. We won’t tell you what to do in your country, in your customs. There are perfectly good countries that identify as you do. Go there!

If you’re an African and defecating in public arenas or wielding machetes through fields killing small animals and birds is the culture you identify with, go to the nation that has your cultural identity. There are plenty of them! If you’re a Mexican gang-banger and you identify with kidnapping, rape, torture and extortion, then go the nation that gave you that heritage. It wasn’t America!

This experiment with homogenization is destroying the bodies it’s entering. European girls are being raped, trafficked and murdered by people who don’t identify with the identity of the nation they’ve invaded. These people have no frame of reference for civilization in these nations. They only know their own identity and it is destroying the body they’ve entered.

The same experiment in America is yielding the same results. Your government representatives are more intent on the globalization agenda of homogenization. That agenda will destroy identity and purpose, which is exactly what they want.

You can’t get cream, butter, or even buttermilk from homogenized milk. What a perfect analogy of what we’re seeing in modern America now.

Another Refinery Closure in California Increases States Dependency on China

By Ronald Stein, P.E. and Mike Umbro

May 2, 2025

With an upcoming Valero Refinery closure in California, the 5th largest economy in the world will be more dependent of China for its demands for transportation fuels and oil derivatives to make products.

Over the last several decades, California’s passion to transition away from fossil fuels has overregulated and overly burdened just the SUPPLY of oil production and refining but has not reduced the increasing materialistic DEMANDS of the world for the more than 6,000 products and transportation fuels made from those fossil fuels. Thus, China is savoring the future with their many refineries coming online to meet the DEMANDS of society.

The recent announcement that the Valero Benica Refinery in Northern California will be closing by the end of 2026 was disappointing, but shockingly, a prelude to more closures in the future. The Valero refinery at Benicia represents almost 9% of the state’s crude oil processing capacity to meet the materialistic demands of the States’ residents.

Just last year, in October 2024, Phillips 66 announced that it would close its Wilmington-area refining complex this year, which will further reduce the state’s gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuels production capacity, wiping out more than 8% of the state’s crude oil processing capacity. Losing another 1.3 billion gallons in annual gasoline output will only worsen the state’s supply challenges to meet the demands.

Governor Newsom’s policies, just on the “supply” side of the equation, continue to force California, the 5th largest economy in the world, to be the only state in contiguous America that imports most of its crude oil demands from foreign countries. California crude oil production is in terminal decline, driven by the lack of drilling permits, despite ample reserves. That dependence on foreign imports has increased imported crude oil from foreign countries from 5 percent in 1992 to more than 60 percent today of total consumption.

The West Coast gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuels market is isolated from other supply/demand centers as California is an energy island isolated from all States East of the Sierra Mountains. The Sierra Mountains are a natural barrier that prevents the state from pipeline access to any of that excess oil from fracking East of the Sierra Mountains. As such, the West Coast is susceptible to unexpected outages of West Coast refineries as it is unable to backfill an unexpected loss in supply of crude oil.

Because California is an isolated energy island market with no incoming oil pipeline connections over the Sierra Mountains from other states, in-state refinery closures will increase importation to meet demands for transportation fuels – sourced primarily from foreign countries like China, Saudi Arabia, Ecuador, Iraq, Columbia, and Russia.

California transportation fuel demands have staggering numbers from the in-state refineries:

• With all its 145 airports, inclusive of 9 international airports and 41 military airports, that demand 13 million gallons of aviation fuel daily. In 2019, California consumed 16.7% of the national total of jet fuel, making it the largest consumer of jet fuel in America.
• For its 30 million vehicles, California is the second-largest consumer of motor gasoline among the 50 states consuming 42 million gallons a day of gasoline, just behind Texas.
• Diesel fuel is the second largest transportation fuel used in California, consuming 10 million gallons a day of diesel to support the state’s 35 million registered vehicles.
• California refineries supply 45% of Arizona’s and 88% of Nevada’s transportation fuels, so any disruption in California impacts all three states.
• California’s northern and southern fuel supply systems are not connected, requiring ocean-going vessels to transport fuel between them. The efforts of California toward the oil production and refining “supply” have had minimal impact on the growing materialistic “demands” of what is made from those fossil fuels.
• The mandating for a transition to EV’s has had minimal impact on gasoline consumption as most EV’s are second vehicles for low milage usage. The workhorse vehicles for major milage demands are still reliable and affordable internal combustion engines.
• Hospitals and airports continue expanding to meet the demands of society. Both hospitals and airports did not exist 200 years ago as they only exist today because of the more than 6,000 products and transportation fuels made from fossil fuels.

Today, Asia is the region with the greatest number of future petroleum refineries. As of 2021, there were 88 new refinery facilities in planning or under construction in Asia for manufactured gasoline, diesel, and aviation fuels used by every transportation infrastructure, and the military, as well as the manufactured oil derivatives that are the basis of most every product being used by mankind.

In the more immediate term, China has plans for multiple new refineries, with at least five projects expected to be completed by 2028, and another three new refineries by 2030, contributing to a broader shift towards integrated petrochemical facilities.

• These eight new refineries include the Yulong Petrochemical complex and the Huajin Aramco Petrochemical Company, as well as expansions to existing refineries like the Sinopec Gulei refinery.

The upcoming closure of Phillips 66 Refinery in 2025, and the Valero Refinery in 2026 will not reduce the materialistic demands of society for the products and fuels from those refineries. The state will obviously be importing less crude oil to refine, but instead, will be importing transportation fuels manufactured in China, the same transportation fuels that are no longer manufactured at those two closed California facilities. Yes, the big winner to meet the continuously increasing demands for the products and fuels from refined oil, appears to be China.

On another front, the current “tariff wars with China” received repercussions from China. China controls most of the rare earth’s metals around the world, thus it is a national security risk to America! They are now playing those cards, which will start to impact the supply chain of those materials to meet the demands of USA manufacturers.

• China has halted critical exports as the trade war intensifies. China has suspended exports of a wide range of critical minerals and magnets, threatening to choke off supplies of components central to the demands of automakers, aerospace manufacturers, semiconductor companies and military contractors around the world.

• Shipments of the magnets, essential for assembling everything from cars and drones to robots and missiles, have been halted at many Chinese ports while the Chinese government drafts a new regulatory system. Once in place, the new system could permanently prevent supplies from reaching certain companies, including American military contractors.

With closure of the Phillips 66 Refinery in 2025, and the Valero Refinery in 2026, a similar national security concern would result from our growing dependence on China to meet the humongous demands for transportation fuels by California, Arizona and Nevada.

It’s obvious that the Net-Zero emission policies within California, and their lack of comprehension of “supply AND demand”, and the subsequent over regulations, mandates, and taxes just on the SUPPLY side of the equation, are causing a national security situation for the entire country’s DEMANDs for the products and fuels made from the fossil fuel industry. In the meantime, China is silently supporting the efforts of California and savoring the future with their many refineries coming online to meet the materialistic DEMANDS of society.

Florida Politicians Are Destroying Lives and Freedoms

By Kat Stansell

May 2, 2025

Lining Pockets And Ignoring Facts Is A Deadly Combination

In addition to disenfranchising citizens and taking away their constitutional right to manage their own communities, Tallahassee is making some of its citizens sick, and worse — NOT just with their sleazy politics, but by standing on the side of dangerous and deadly business.

The mining of phosphate is one of Florida’s largest industries. The phosphate in the state is from sediment formed by the remnants of sea creatures, laid down over millions of years forming rock from which the mineral is excavated and brought to the surface. Today, the phosphate is used as fertilizer. Florida supplies 80% of the nation’s phosphate, and 25% of the world’s supply.

Twelve active phosphate mines are currently authorized in Florida, according to the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). Most are controlled by two main companies, Mosaic and Nutrien.

This is the FIRST EDITION of a story about Mosaic, the largest.

Phosphate is BIG, but deadly, business in the Sunshine State; not only the mining but the reclamation processes which attempt to re-use the land after it is stripped of phosphate. The land remains toxic, for generations to come. Tallahassee loves business, and seems not to care about the lives lost to radiation poisoning, which is the residual of phosphate mining.

The mining of phosphate releases high levels of radioactive material, which stays in the soil and water for thousands of years. Ironically, phosphate is used as fertilizer to grow food to feed people, while the production of it sickens them. Some radiation remains, even in the fertilizer produced from this.

By 2011, cancer was the leading cause of death in Florida.

One of Florida’s largest industries is killing people. The mining of phosphate releases deadly levels of radiation into the air, soil and water. Mosaic knows this. I suspect that Tallahassee does as well. How could they not?

Employees of the company are told that their lives will be shortened by exposure to this mining, but that they are “feeding the children of the world”. What psychobabble…who will feed their own children after their lives are “shortened”? This is asking for lives in exchange for paychecks.

This message is juxtaposed with Mosaic advertising propaganda, delivered with silky sweetness, that includes information that the company is teaching the children to have jobs with Mosaic in the future.

Don’t you wonder if Mosaic prepares those students for shortened lives and miserable deaths??

The documentary, PhosFate, tells it all. It is 90 minutes of information that will leave you shaken. I BEG you to watch it. Click the link. Your life and the lives of those you love may depend on what you learn. The documentary was begun in 2019, and published in 2021; PhosFate represents hundreds of hours of work by those suffering from related illness. It contains careful, in-depth research. Of course, Mosaic and Tallahassee hate it.

Of the five citizens listed at the beginning of the documentary as “starring”, two are have succumbed to their cancers.

If you live in or visit Florida, you owe it to yourself and your family’s safety, to watch PhosFate.

This environmental catastrophe has been going on for a long time. The current administration is following the lead of others who populated Tallahassee before it.

In 1975 When Ruben Askew was the Governor of Florida, the federal EPA informed the nation that dangerously elevated levels of radon were found on former phosphate mining land, in structures built on ‘reclaimed’ land. At that time, THE EPA RECOMMENDED THAT BUILDING OF STRUCTURES ON THIS (reclaimed) LAND BE DISCOURAGED. I have no idea how many homes, parks and towns have been built on land like this since then.

This was 1975. Fifty years ago. Tallahassee has a real learning problem. Or, they don’t give a damn. Rick Scott worked closely with phosphate mining companies when he was governor, as does DeSantis’s crew, today. But of course, DeGov would never admit to that.

With the super-majority that the current governor enjoys, his administration could certainly have turned the tide, but has not. An occasional “dog and phoney show” (Mrs. Gov’s 2023 “cancer initiative” to collect data- another “Florida is first” show) on the subject, but nothing of substance. The data is there in abundance, Casey. USE IT.

Also, supportive legislation – to the mining companies – is being put on the books.

Sort of reminds you of election integrity, but we won’t go there for now.

SB 832, and HB 585 passed in the 2025 session., They “gut” protections for the environment and the people. SB 832 makes it difficult/impossible to sue the mining companies; HB 585 provides “conditions” necessary to bring suit against certain former mining sites. Conditions purposely difficult to meet.

In 2023, the same year as the Casey initiative was launched, DeSantis signed a bill authorizing research into using the radioactive rock, a mining byproduct, to pave highways. This rock is already piled at a mining museum encouraging children to play in it. A geiger counter there reads more than 4X the EPA safety limits – Fukishima levels. The same tainted gravel is in campsites and parks. But DeGov somehow needs more “research”. How many deaths will it take to convince him? Or is it part of another phony show of concern?

Cancer has been the leading cause of death in Florida since 2011. Not skin cancers from too much sun, but hybrid cancers, which doctors admit they are not sure how to treat.

Whole communities are stricken, small children to older adults, in clusters. Even pets. This cannot be a coincidence of genetics, that all cancer-prone people are living together in certain communities. These cancers are coming from the environmental factors in the soil, water and air. Phosphate mining is a major contributor to this. This is a proven fact.

One citizens group has crowd-sourced data from families in communities built on reclaimed land and/or nearby the toxic soil and water, finding up to 800 diagnoses in some areas, of the same type of cancer. The Department of Health basically ignored it. Of course Florida DOH in one county occupies a building built for them by Mosaic. Just sayiin’.

Those who ask their state for help with this killer condition, are tracked and accused of lying or working for foreign governments! Dear Lord. Wouldn’t you think that Casey would want them to work together on her initiative??

Whereas you hear mind-numbing repetitions of infomercials about the poison water at Camp LeJeune, you hear nothing about radiation poisoning from the phosphate mining process, even in the state which is being polluted by it.

Florida radiation levels are 3X higher than that at LeJeune. Crickets from officials.

Even Florida’s Fountain of Youth is closed due to the pollution. DeGov hasn’t said a word about it. At least there is a sign to “drink at your own risk”. What a shard of conscience from someone!

Other than that, there are NO WARNING SIGNS, anywhere.

In The Free State Of Florida, road signs abound, telling the observer how wonderful is the state. How “free”! Nowhere will you find signs warning of radioactive pollution in the land, water, food and air.

There are no warning signs on or around the 300,000+ acres (the size of the City of Los Angeles) which is owned by Mosaic Mining, in Manatee, Hillsborough, Polk, Hardee counties. There are no warning signs at the piles of radioactive gravel in which children are encouraged to play. That “Fukishima-level” gravel.

The millions of gallons of water used in the mining process is extracted from the rivers, then returned – RADIOACTIVE RUNOFF – to the waterways to find its way to the Gulf of America. Those waterways are radioactive as well. Of course, no warning signs to spoil the scenery. Millions of sea creatures have been killed in the poisonous waters, while millions of wildlife habitats have been wiped out as forests and open lands are bulldozed and burned to clear for more mining operations.

There has been huge business losses in the tourist communities around the Gulf due to the die-off of seafood, and poisoning of the beaches.

Why is NONE of this of concern to Tallahassee?? They apparently see no problem with any of this, and this is only a small part of the story. There is SO much more.

I decided to put out this introduction to the issue so you could see the documentary, PhosFate, if you haven’t already, and I could finish talking with all of the people who have volunteered to speak to me on the subject. There is medical, scientific, business and political information to come. Brace yourself.

The word, “mosaic” refers to a picture assembled of many small pieces, as is the picture of death and destruction in Florida — its natural resources and its citizens — courtesy of big business and big government.

Join the cause We are still bigger than our enemy and stronger, if we stand up. If we don’t, we sacrifice our seat at the table, and bear the full weight of their game.

I will leave you with the words of Margaret Meade: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful concerned citizens can change the world.” Be the change that is so desperately needed.

A Creeping Insidious Force is Threatening the Lone Star State

By Amil Imani

May 1, 2025

Texas, the unbreakable heart of American freedom, is under attack. A creeping, insidious force is burrowing into the Lone Star State, and it’s not coming with guns or bombs; it’s arriving with land deals, mosques, and a calculated plan to transform Texas into an Islamic stronghold. The evidence is undeniable, the stakes are apocalyptic, and the time for action is now. This is not a drill but a war for the soul of Texas.

The East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) is ground zero. They’re not just building a neighborhood; they’re carving out a 402-acre Islamic fortress called EPIC City, a self-proclaimed “epicenter of Islam in America.” This isn’t about houses or community centers – it’s about planting a flag and claiming Texas for Sharia. Their promotional videos boast of a “meticulously designed community that brings Islam to the forefront.” That’s not integration; that’s domination. They want 1,000 homes, a mosque, Islamic schools, clinics, and a senior living facility, orbiting around their green-domed house of worship with 3,200 worshipers. This is a city within a city, a parallel society that answers to the Quran, not the Constitution.
Story continues below advertisement

Many of our elected officials don’t even dare to challenge Islam and its barbaric rules. They usually avoid any questions about the nature of Islam when speaking with their constituents or deceive them by telling them not to worry about the horrific things that are happening on the other side of the world.

This is alarming. But regrettably, too few Americans are aware of all this, and organizations such as the Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) and other Muslim Brotherhood-linked organizations are taking full advantage of our naïveté. CAIR is only one of many Islamic organizations that provide refuge to stealth jihad.

At least Governor Greg Abbott has sounded the alarm, and he’s not whispering. “Sharia law is not allowed in Texas. Nor are Sharia cities,” he declared, unleashing a dozen State agencies that are investigating EPIC’s activities. The Texas Rangers are probing potential criminal violations, including operating an unlicensed funeral home, misleading investors, and breaching fair housing laws. Attorney General Ken Paxton criticizes EPIC for consumer protection violations, while the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has issued cease-and-desist orders for starting construction without permits. This is Texas fighting back, and it’s a beautiful sight.

But the enemy is cunning. EPIC’s leaders, like resident scholar Yasir Qadhi, claim they’re just building a “diverse community” that follows state and federal laws. Don’t be fooled. Their own words betray them. A viral video tied to the project brags about creating a “self-governed Islamic city.” Self-governed? That’s code for a no-go zone where Texas law is a suggestion, not a mandate. They aren’t here to blend in but to take over. And they’re not alone. Shadowy Islamic groups are acquiring land across Texas—Sachse, Aubrey, Blue Ridge—and even converting megachurches into ideological outposts. This is a coordinated invasion, and Texans are sleeping through it.

The X platform is ablaze with warnings. Patriots like @AmyMek and @CarlosTurcios are exposing the truth: Islamic compounds are sprouting with zero oversight, and symbolic rituals are being performed to claim Texas for Islam. One post revealed a Pakistani ex-president invited by EPIC’s backers, openly preaching that “the resurgence of Islam can take place from the US.” They’re not hiding their goal—a caliphate on American soil. Another user, @JohnnyWhiskyTX, roared that while Texans are distracted by BBQ and football, their state is being transformed into Pakistan. Wake up, Texas. Your heritage is being stolen.

This isn’t new. Texas has been a battleground for years. Two Muslim lawmakers, Salman Bhojani and Suleman Lalani, have already pushed bills like HB 1044, which critics say lays the groundwork for Sharia-compliant family law. They’ve also secured “Muslim Heritage Month” for the next decade, a Trojan horse to entrench Islamic influence in schools and public policy. Halal certification schemes are bleeding Texas businesses, funneling money to fund lobbying and radical agendas. This is economic warfare dressed as cultural accommodation.

The opposition is fierce but not fierce enough. EPIC’s defenders, like Mustafaa Carroll from CAIR’s Texas branch, cry “Islamophobia” and accuse Abbott and Paxton of spreading “hateful misinformation.” They claim the project is inclusive and open to all. However, their actions scream otherwise. Death threats have poured in against the project’s critics, and locals are terrified of a loudspeaker blasting the call to prayer five times a day. This isn’t about coexistence; it’s about submission.

Texas history is forged in defiance—San Jacinto, the Alamo, the Texas Rangers. We don’t bow to foreign creeds or allow our laws to be trampled. However, the enemy is banking on our complacency. They’re counting on Texans to shrug and say, “It’s just a neighborhood.” It’s not. It’s a beachhead. If EPIC City rises, it will serve as a model for additional Islamic enclaves throughout the state, each gradually undermining the Texas way of life until a crescent moon supplants the Lone Star.

The fight is now. Gov. Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton are drawing a line in the sand, but they need every Texan to stand with them. Flood the Collin County Commissioners Court with demands to deny EPIC’s permits. Arm yourself with the truth—follow X accounts like @KamVTV and @EndWokeness for real-time updates. Demand transparency from your lawmakers and reject any compromise that smells of Sharia. Texas is the last bastion of American grit. If we lose here, we lose everything.

This is not a debate. This is not a discussion. This is a call to arms. Texas will not become an Islamic state. Not today, not ever. Rise, Texans, and defend your land. The eyes of history are watching.

Trump, Russia, and the Threat of Total War

By Cliff Kincaid

May 1, 2025

You do not have to be a Catholic to recognize that the Roman Catholic Church traces its roots to the time of Christ and St. Peter and has a special place in the history of Christianity. What is more, Christians of various persuasions understand there is a spiritual conflict between Christ and Satan for control of the world that is under the careful watch of God Himself. What roles do President Trump and the nations of America and Russia, now at war in Europe, play in this unfolding scenario?

Many Americans believe America has a divine mission in the world and President Trump has recognized the hand of God in saving his life from an assassin. But are there nations taken over by the spirit of the anti-Christ? Some would immediately respond that Communist China is such a country. But what about Russia, a nation that many conservatives believe has shaken its communist past?

In my recent Rumble TV interview with Trevor Loudon, the anti-communist analyst, the case was made that Russia remains under the control of a communist regime, led by a former KGB colonel, Vladimir Putin, that is waging war with its former Soviet republics, starting with Ukraine and threatening to expand into Eastern Europe. But several key Trump advisers, such as Tucker Carlson, have supported Russia by featuring interviews with Russian president Vladimir Putin and his “brain,” the “Russian philosopher” Alexander Durgin. They blame Nazis in Ukraine for the war.

Russia’s recent aggressive actions, as Trump tried to negotiate a ceasefire and peace deal, have apparently caught the president by surprise. He called on Putin to “STOP” his military assaults on the people of Ukraine. Meanwhile, Alexander Dugin is defending the use of communist North Korean troops in the war on Ukraine, as well as Russia’s alliance with Communist China, as Trump’s Director of National Intelligence (DNI), Tulsi Gabbard, is telling President Trump that Russia-supported Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons.

Gabbard had declared that “radical Islam” is a threat but seems to accept claims by the Mullahs that America can negotiate with Iran and make it friendly to the United States. Hence, Trump has pursued a “deal” with Iran, a development that threatens the survival of Israel, another country that figures in Bible prophecy. We argued that Gabbard, as we warned at the time, does not have the necessary credentials to ascertain national security threats to America. She defended former NSA/CIA analyst Edward Snowden, who defected to Russia through Chinese Hong Kong.

It appears that President Trump now understands he had a major blind spot regarding Russia, and that the “art of the deal” is not possible with Putin. In this context, the Catholic Church view on the importance of Russia in Bible prophecy deserves some interest and scrutiny from the president and his top aides.

The Catholic view is that the Virgin Mary appeared to the children at Fatima, Portugal, in 1917, the same year as the communist revolution in Russia, and requested a special religious ceremony or consecration of Russia, to prevent its “errors” from devastating the world. The warning was that “Russia will spread its errors throughout the world, raising up wars and persecutions against the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father [the Pope] will have much to suffer, and various nations will be annihilated.”

In 2018, a film called “The Vatican Deception” warned that the consecration had not taken place and that Armageddon was coming unless the nation was converted to Christ in a special consecration ceremony by the Roman Catholic Church. Pope Francis did in fact arrange a consecration ceremony for Russia in March 25, 2022, but that was about a month after Russian began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine under Joe Biden.

The war continues, despite President Trump’s pledge to end it on Day One of his presidency. We are now moving past Day 100 and Trump seems increasingly alienated from Putin because of Putin’s obvious desire for more war and more bloodshed, using communist North Korean troops and Chinese assistance to make this possible. Putin’s conduct should be a wake-up call to those who have believed that Ukraine or NATO started the war and that Russia wanted peace.

In retrospect, it is worth considering that the consecration of Russia did NOT take place as necessary. Perhaps there was something deficient in what Pope Francis did. That is the argument made by Paul Stark, director of “The Vatican Deception,” in a recent interview on my Rumble channel. He notes that Francis replaced Pope Benedict in a strange turn of events, when Benedict retired, and that the Francis papacy may not have been legitimate. As a result, that and other factors undermined the consecration of Russia that was required.

Catholics and non-Catholics alike have a religious obligation to understand these events and their impact on the world. If the Fatima revelations are true, and the Virgin Mary did appear to those three children at Fatima, Portugal, in a warning for the world, it means the Catholic Church can stop what appears to be a rush toward total war involving nuclear exchanges between Russia, America, and perhaps China.

But whether the consecration of Russia occurs will depend on the next Pope and whether he follows the outline of what was presented more than 100 years ago and validated by the “Miracle of the Sun” witnessed by tens of thousands of people and which followed the appearance of — and the promise from — the Virgin Mary.

President Trump would be well-advised to consider the spiritual dimensions of this conflict. This could be the key to world peace and his own successful presidency.

During the more than 100-year period in which Russia was not consecrated, the “errors” of this nation have been displayed for all to see, as the Russian Orthodox Church emerged in a schism (under the control of the KGB) and Soviet Russia launched an international communist movement that has claimed 100 million lives.

Pagans and secular humanists scoff at reports that demons or Satan exist. But even Pope Francis, a Jesuit with a soft spot for Marxist-oriented “liberation theology,” referred to the transgender ideology as demonic. Signs of demonic possession in some individuals can be measured. They include:

a colossal amount of strength that is not natural,
the ability to speak in languages the possessed don’t know, sometimes in the form of ancient languages the possessed couldn’t possibly learn,
and knowledge of unconfessed sins by the possessed person who reveals them to those participating in the exorcism.

An exorcism in Mount Rainier, Maryland, in the Washington, D.C. area, inspired the book by William Peter Blatty and the film, “The Exorcist.” Blatty also wrote Legion, a book about demons based on Satan’s proclamation, “My name is Legion, for we are many,” in answer to Jesus’ question, “What is your name?”

For years the Vatican treated believers in the Fatima prophecies as heretics, a fact attributed by director Paul Stark to the communist infiltration of the Vatican. Now, with the passing of Pope Francis, the Roman Catholic Church has an opportunity to not only eradicate communism and corruption in the ranks but fulfill Bible prophecies recognized by the church itself. That means Russia – especially its regime of former KGB operatives – must be exorcized. We discussed the nature of this regime in our 2014 book, Back from the Dead: The Return of the Evil Empire.

We learned from anti-communist scholar Dr. Paul Kengor that the Soviets were certainly behind the May 13, 1981, attempted assassination of anti-communist Pope John Paul II. His book, A Pope and a President: John Paul II, Ronald Reagan, and the Extraordinary Untold Story of the 20th Century, revealed that Reagan’s CIA director Bill Casey confirmed the Soviet role, in the face of official CIA or Deep State resistance to the finding.

Like Trump, Reagan survived an assassination attempt. Reagan brought down the Soviet empire through a combination of military and monetary pressure, until Vladimir Putin assumed the Russian presidency and tried to bring it back, with his first invasion of Ukraine under President Obama and then a massive invasion under Biden. This is the world that President Trump inherits. With God’s help, he will make the right decisions. It is then up to the next Pope.

Why Do Democrats Want Trump, Thus America to Fail?

By Frosty Wooldridge

May 1, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Beginning of the End for the Johnson Amendment (501-c-3)

By Paul Engel

April 30, 2025

The Johnson Amendment was passed over 70 years ago.
It has been used to silence churches, charities, and other non-profits for decades.
Congress is considering a bill they think will help.

How many of you know about the Johnson Amendment? Because if you’ve ever donated to a church or other charity, you’ve been impacted by it. This limitation on freedom of speech has been in effect for over 70 years. Now the House of Representatives is trying to remedy this infringement.

Johnson Amendment History

To understand what the House of Representatives is trying to do, we have to go back to the beginning, and to one Lyndon B. Johnson. In 1954 incumbent Lyndon Johnson was running for re-election to the United States Senate against Texas State Senator Dudley Dougherty. At the time Johnson seemed to be in a comfortable lead in the polls. Comfortable that is, until a couple of non-profit organizations, backed by extremely powerful leaders, stepped in.

H.L. Hunt had created an organization called Facts Forum in 1951, and Frank Gannett had created the Committee for Constitutional Government back in 1935. Both of these groups were anti-communist and supporting Dougherty in the race for the U.S. Senate seat. Concerned that Johnson was soft on Communism, both of these organization passed out thousands of pieces of literature in opposition to Johnson’s campaign. When these actions started seriously hurting Johnson’s campaign, he sought ways to silence them. Try as he might, Johnson could not find a law that these organizations were breaking.

On July 2, 1954, Johnson presented an amendment to a pending tax overhaul bill. The amendment passed on a unanimous voice vote, the bill was passed, and signed into law by President Eisenhower on August 16, 1954. There were no committee hearings or legislative analysis on the amendment, just a rushed vote. In an interview years later, a staff member stated that Johnson never had churches in mind for the amendment. There was nothing any church had done to warrant this restriction, but they got caught up in this amendment because their tax exempt status is codified in the same section of the law. According to Johnson’s staffer, “This amendment had nothing to do with “separation of church and state.” However, it has been used for decades as a threat to keep churches and ministers from engaging in public debates about so-called “political” issues.

The Johnson Amendment

Let’s start with the law regarding tax exception.

An organization described in subsection (c) or (d) or section 401(a) shall be exempt from taxation under this subtitle unless such exemption is denied under section 502 or 503.

26 USC §501(a)

We start with three sections of the law that will describe tax exempt organizations. That is unless they are denied exception under sections 502 or 503. This includes the most well known section of the tax law, §502(c)(3).

The following organizations are referred to in subsection …

(3) Corporations, and any community chest, fund, or foundation, organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, literary, or educational purposes, or to foster national or international amateur sports competition (but only if no part of its activities involve the provision of athletic facilities or equipment), or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals,

26 USC §501(c)

While there are several types of organizations, and several purposes that would make them tax exempt, the two most commonly used are religious and charitable organizations. I’m sure most people have a basic understanding of what a religious or charitable organization is, but were dealing with the law and details matter. This is where the Johnson Amendment comes into play.

… no substantial part of the activities of which is carrying on propaganda, or otherwise attempting, to influence legislation (except as otherwise provided in subsection (h)), and which does not participate in, or intervene in (including the publishing or distributing of statements), any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office.

26 USC §501(c)

You can be a religious or charitable organization, but if you want your tax exempt status you had better not participate in any political campaign either for or against a candidate. Do you see what Johnson was doing? His campaign was being beat up by charitable organizations, so he used his considerable power as a United States Senator to stop it. Oh, yeah, and you had better not try to influence any legislation or your tax exempt status would be on the chopping block as well.

Notice, this language doesn’t prohibit religious or charitable organization from participating in campaigns, or influencing legislation, it only threatens them with the removal of their tax exempt status. But there’s more. Most organizations I’ve talked to where this topic comes up believe that the mere mention of a candidate or legislation would threaten their status, and the law says they cannot use a “substantial part of the activities” they perform for these purposes. Such is the state of the misunderstanding of the Johnson Amendment.

The Free Speech Fairness Act

Enter the 119th Congress, and The Free Speech Fairness Act. The specified goal of this act is:

SEC. 2. ALLOWING 501(c)(3) ORGANIZATION TO MAKE STATEMENTS RELATING TO POLITICAL CAMPAIGN IN ORDINARY COURSE OF CARRYING OUT ITS TAX EXEMPT PURPOSE.

Free Speech Fairness Act

Isn’t this nice, Congress wants to allow 502(c)(3) organizations to exercise their free speech rights. Maybe that title is just poorly worded. Maybe the language of the legislation will be better.

‘‘(1) IN GENERAL.—For purposes of subsection (c)(3) and sections 170(c)(2), 2055, 2106, 2522, and 4955, an organization shall not fail to be treated as organized and operated exclusively for a purpose described in subsection (c)(3), nor shall it be deemed to have participated in, or intervened in any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public office, solely because of the content of any statement which—

‘‘(A) is made in the ordinary course of the organization’s regular and customary activities in carrying out its exempt purpose, and ‘‘

(B) results in the organization incurring not more than de minimis incremental expenses.’’.

Free Speech Fairness Act

Should this legislation pass both houses of Congress and be signed by the President, we will trade one somewhat vague standard for another. Don’t get me wrong, I love the idea of Congress no longer trying to use the threat of revoking tax exempt status because one Senator was getting beat up by a couple of charitable organizations, but I think this could be better.

For example, the current standard for a religious or charitable organization to express their opinions about legislation or candidates is “no substantial part of the[ir] activities.” Tell me, what constitutes a “substantial part of activities”? Is it the amount of time spent? The amount of money spent? Or just what some bureaucrat thinks is advantageous at the time? This gets replaced with “the ordinary course of the organization’s regular and customary activities.” What are the ordinary course of activities for a religious organization? And who decides what is ordinary and what isn’t? A minister speaking from a pulpit seems like an ordinary activity to me, but what if that same minister speaks at a rally or legislative committee hearing? If a charitable organization serves meals in a building they own or rent, that seems like an ordinary activity, but what if they do so in a public park?

Then there’s the question of “de minimis incremental expenses.” This is a legal term for something so small the law doesn’t care about it. For example, in a million dollar deal, a $10 mistake is considered “de minimis.” So what is a “de minimis incremental expense”? Is it 1% of the organization’s budget or 10%? Is it $100 or $1,000,000?

Once again, it appears Congress wants to pass a vague law and let the executive bureaucracy fill in the blanks. And we’ve seen how that has worked out over the years.

Conclusion

The Johnson Amendment is the very definition of arbitrary and capricious. It was introduced by a United States Senator to protect his own re-election campaign. It was targeted not only at the non-profit organizations, some of whom were impacting Johnson’s campaign, but at religious and other organizations. And the language was so vague as to have allowed decades of churches, charities, libraries, and educational non-profits to work in fear that simply saying the wrong thing could not only deprive them of their tax-exempt status, but the donations that are frequently given because of that status. That alone should be sufficient reason to simply rescind the amendment.

And why should an organization not be allowed to speak their position on a piece of legislation or a candidate as a condition of their tax exempt status? Should a group of people, peaceably assembled for religious or charitable purposes, not be allowed to speak on topics of public interest?

Interestingly enough, to my knowledge, the Johnson Amendment has never been challenged in court. I’ve even heard of organizations that not only encouraged ministers to preach on the subjects of candidates and legislation for the specific purpose of filing a complaint with the IRS. Why would someone do this? Because they believe the Johnson Amendment would not survive a First Amendment challenge in federal court. These organization hope that the IRS would threaten their tax exempt status, which would give them standing to sue. To my knowledge, even though thousands of legitimate complaints have been filed by these organizations, not a single tax exempt status has been threatened or revoked. Could it be that the IRS isn’t as sure about the constitutionality of the Johnson Amendment as many might think?

Rather than getting rid of this bad law, Congress seems to want to tweak around the edges. While not the best solution, I think it would be better than what we have now. This legislation is still in progress. Maybe we can convince our elected representatives to make it better before the final vote.

Criminal and State Scoundrels Must Be Brought To Justice

By Bradlee Dean

April 30, 2025

SCOUN’DREL: A mean, worthless fellow; a rascal; a low petty villain; a man without honor or virtue.

If there is one drum that I have been pounding on since the first day of my ministry, it is justice upon the heads of the guilty (Isaiah 26:9). This article proves exactly just why that is. If there is a scoundrel amongst us in the halls of government, there are few that equal the reprobate wicked, and traitorous state of CIA-planted Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (Luke 22:48).

Don’t play the fool by suggesting the people voted him in. They did not!

Denounced and hated not only by the police commission (and police who he has been attacking) in the State of Minnesota but also by the 5.9 million people that reside within its borders.

Keith is actually from Michigan, along with his partner in crime, treasonous communist and pedophile Governor Tim Walz who is from Nebraska (Isaiah 10:1).

Attorney General Keith Ellison: Accuser Of The Innocent, Defender Of The Guilty – Attempting To Equate Hate To The Law That Exposes Their Crimes

And Then There Is The Traitor & Treasonous Tim Walz To Add To The Short List Of Options…

Both have also been alluring illegals from outside our borders, as well as working overtime for a 200-300 Muslim increase within our borders (Article III, Section 3, US Constitution).

Furthermore, Tim Walz is now being called out for over 600 million dollars in state fraud along with over 60 open investigations around his criminal administration!

Just when you thought that things couldn’t get any worse… Keith Ellison is caught on tape.

American Experiment has exclusively obtained the audio file of a private December 2021 meeting between state Attorney General Keith Ellison and key figures in the Feeding Our Future scandal.

Somehow, these scoundrels think they can do whatever it is that they want without impunity.

That they now have lawful authority to attack the constituents they are to represent?

That they have the right to transgress the Law, but not uphold the law (Psalm 94:20!

Friends, this is all a reflection of the people who tolerate these criminals. The passivity and tolerance of the American people concerning these criminals are what encourage them and others (up and coming) to continue down the road of tyranny.

Edmund Burke stated, <em>“Evil prevails because good men do nothing.” </em> I am here to tell you that nothing could be further from the truth! Why? Because good men do NOT allow evil to prevail (Isaiah 51:4)!

In conclusion: True it is that these scoundrels will always do whatever it is that you let them get away with, and that is why they continue to do it. These two scoundrels are a prime example of just that, and that is why the people, not only in the state of Minnesota but across the country, need to send the message that we will no longer tolerate criminal activity in the halls of our government (Psalm 94:16)!

Is the American Political System Broken Beyond Repair?

By Steven Yates

April 29, 2025

[Author’s disclaimer: the opinions and conclusions expressed in this article are solely mine, and should not be attributed to NewsWithViews.com, its editorial staff, or any other NewsWithViews.com contributing writer.]

It’s all gone sideways….

Remember Signal-gate? It looks as though Pete Hegseth created a second chat, sending sensitive information to a group including his wife, his brother, and his attorney.

The man is incompetent. He’ll soon be unloaded.

That said, there will be more to why he’ll be unloaded than meets the public eye. It won’t be over Signal-gate. Let Chuck Baldwin explain (scroll to the final section).

Baldwin also notes how Trump is on board with the unconstitutional REAL ID program. When I lived in South Carolina, I was part of a group that fought REAL ID tooth and nail. I was standing three feet away from then-governor Mark Sanford when he signed a bill declining to participate in REAL ID. (Here, here.)

South Carolina, like every other state, was eventually strongarmed. REAL ID is a perfect police state instrument. To the best of my knowledge, Trump has said nothing against it.

Trump has a nightmare on his hands with deportations. This isn’t his fault. We’re seeing fallout from 40 years of “free trade” ideology / open borders globalism … having outsourced American’s manufacturing base, de industrialized the country, and destroyed a middle class that took decades to build.

Sleepy Joe let 15 million illegals into the country. Trump inherits this mess. How does he get them out? It’s not like they’re wearing illegal on their sleeves! What’s to be done, then? Trump has pointed out — not unreasonably — that giving every suspect due process would take 200 years!

So how does ICE differentiate illegals from U.S. citizens without using police state tactics?

Even making the tall assumption that federal agents can Constitutionally demand, “Your papers please!” how many Americans could produce proof of U.S. citizenship on cue? A birth certificate, Social Security card, or passport would do it, but I’d wager that because few people need such documents very often, they can’t lay their hands on them on cue. What happens then? Send them to the detainment / deportation facility in Louisiana?

Department of Homeland Security sloppiness has already spilled over onto U.S. citizens. Over the past few weeks, a few immigration lawyers — and some who aren’t involved in immigration at all — have received letters from DHS ordering them to leave the country! Apparently no one checked to see which email address was the lawyer’s and which was the client’s. I don’t know what would explain sending such letters willy nilly to U.S citizens.

This is happening under Kristi Noem’s watch. Trump put her in charge of DHS. Another disastrous appointment! Illustrating her lack of judgment: she shoots an “untrainable” dog, then puts an account of the episode in a book, apparently not giving a thought that many voters are dog lovers!

On Easter she had a $4,000 Gucci bag snatched from under her nose in an Asylum on the Potomac restaurant. She lost her passport, apartment keys, driver’s license, DHS access badge, some medication (!), and $3,000 in cash.

Who in their right mind carries $3,000 in cash around with them in a high-end purse in this day and age? Or leaves them unattended in public?

If I had to guess, I’d surmise that DHS is in chaos courtesy of this airhead. That might not be a bad thing, actually, since the Constitution never authorized its creation in the first place. But we’re stuck with it for now, and its activities include carelessly sending terrifying letters to law-abiding U.S. citizens ordering them to leave the country!

Trump himself has more-than-toyed with the idea of sending U.S. citizens to foreign prisons: only the worst of the worst of our “homegrown,” we are assured.

First, even prisoners have rights under the Constitution, and this would blatantly violate those rights (Eight Amendment provision against “cruel and unusual punishment”).

Second, such policies would easily expand. Always keep in mind: Trump won’t be in office forever (all the talk about his seeking an unconstitutional third term notwithstanding)!

A left wing Democrat could conceivably get in, in 2028!

Whatever Trump institutes will still be around!

Do you, a U.S. citizen, want to be threatened with detainment and deportation for criticizing affirmative action “diversity, equity, inclusion” (DEI) ideology? Or, in our present environment, because you were accused of “antisemitism.”

You could ask me (maybe someone out there was thinking this), Well then, who should Trump have appointed to DHS?

Honest answer: I have no idea!

How does anyone fix this, Trump or anyone else? Isn’t it just conceivable that cultural Marxists, so-called free-traders / open borders globalists, Zionists, and many Republicans have collectively ruined the country, which is now FUBAR (stands for effed up beyond all repair)?

What Trump is trying to do right….

Trump wants to purge higher education and other affected institutions, including corporations, of cultural Marxist, affirmative action ideology, for the past several years known as DEI.

This should have been done three decades ago!

My first book was Civil Wrongs: What Went Wrong With Affirmative Action (1994). I drew connections between affirmative action, increasing criticism of it and successful lawsuits against it, and the rise of political correctness: speech codes, critical race theory, the rise of cancel culture.

That book nearly got me canceled. Perhaps that was to be expected. What I didn’t expect was that well-positioned conservatives in think tanks would ignore it!

They were ignoring the work of others, though, who had far more visibility than I did!

These people were effing scared of their effing shadows, and most of them still are!!

Pardon my language, but my patience has run out!

I predicted in ‘94 that affirmative action ideology would spread from academia and law schools until it dominated every profession in the country: law, news media, corporate America, entertainment, even the military (“women in combat” in the mid-1990s; homosexuals and “trans” people in our century).

Was I right, or was I right?

Again, though, what do we do about it now?

“DEI” is so deeply baked into institutions and into the consciousness of a public that grew up with it that getting rid of it without a federal takeover is going to be massively difficult!

Naturally I’m not advocating that!

It worked for Viktor Orbán in Hungary, someone might reply.

Hungary is a small country. Few could name a single university there. Harvard and other Ivy League institutions are known worldwide and have deep pockets. Trump should have anticipated pushback in the form of lawsuits.

The public “likes DEI,” says far-left USA Today columnist Rex Huppke!

Corporations phasing it out are losing business!

That’s the Brave New Generation(s) that grew up with it, about which I also warned two and a half decades ago!

That’s what we’re up against!

Back then, I had ideas about what would fix this mess! Now I don’t!

What Trump is getting (sometimes disastrously) wrong….

Foreign policy: Initially, back in 2015, I wasn’t going to support Trump. He struck me as a celebrity blowhard whose candidacy would quickly flame out.

But when he described U.S. foreign policy as a “complete and total disaster,” I paid attention. He gained traction in an environment of Establishment narrative collapse. His voice resonated with a growing base of support. This support won him the GOP nomination and then the presidency.

Widely circulated essays like this one helped as well.

Now, the “complete and total disaster” has returned … thanks to Trump’s fealty to a sociopath (Netanyahu) and commitment to Israel, no questions asked.

Latest example: the Houthis in Yemen, who had not threatened us. They had begun retaliating against Israel’s violation of the ceasefire agreement in Gaza.

If Trump were putting America First! he’d be telling Israel, Not Our Problem! You did this to yourself! At least he’d be demanding to know what America gains from being dragged into another war in the Middle East.

Powerful people seem to want to fight Iran. Trump is on board with this if he doesn’t get the nuclear deal he’s working on, although Israel and the West have pushed Iran to want nukes. Should war between Iran and the U.S.-Israel alliance break out, the potential for catastrophe dwarfs what was done to Iraq in 2003. If Iran should mine the Strait of Hormuz, what do you think will happen to every Western economy that depends on the oil that flows through that passage every day?

But everyone in the Asylum on the Potomac is terrified of getting on the Israeli lobby’s s**t list including Trump. In fairness, it is the Asylum’s most powerful lobby.

Isn’t it interesting how many neocons have dual U.S.-Israeli citizenships???

My question: America First? Or Israel First?

Tariffs: what Trump wants to do is clear. He wants to bring back manufacturing. But his institution of tariffs to make this happen has been erratic and unpredictable, driving markets nuts (although market oscillations — investors buying, selling, day-trading, what-have-you, based on the hope of cleverly-gotten freebies — has been entertaining to watch).

The objection I keep seeing in a range of credible sources is that not only will tariffs drive up prices for ordinary Americans and drive more small businesses under when they can’t absorb the costs like the big boys, but that because of changed technology, if manufacturing does return to the U.S. it will all be automated.

In that case, it won’t create a single job of the sort that built the economic powerhouse of the 1950s and 1960s.

No Trumpian golden age, in that case….

I only see further consolidation of wealth and power in the hands of the few, which is what Elon Musk and other Silicon Valley technocrats are counting on, I’m sure, while His Muskiness and Gen Z techies dismantle agencies like the Social Security Administration that provide a lifeline to over 70 million Americans.

The Courts and deportations: Trump is right to stand up to the far-left Obama appointees. But first, not all of those criticizing the legality of his moves are Obama appointees.

Second, even left-wingers get some things right. It appears that the Trump administration violated a 2019 court order not to deport Kilmer Abrego Garcia to El Salvador.

Trump certainly seems to be defying the U.S. Supreme Court (including two of his own appointees) which has ordered the administration to “expedite” returning Abrego Garcia to the U.S.

The Trump administration has admitted that deporting the man was a mistake.

I keep hearing: but Abrego Garcia is a gang member, a member of MS-13, and that he’s abused his wife.

If that’s true, let’s find out by bringing him back and charging him in a court of law. That’s how our system is supposed to work. The claim — made not just by Trump but by Nayib Bukele — that there’s nothing they can do seems disingenuous to me.

The latter is El Salvador’s president, and he’s saying he can’t arrange for one man to be put on a plane in his country and sent to the U.S.?

Are you effing kidding me?! If he can’t, then who can?!

Forgive me again, but this is ridiculous!!

Small wonder a lot of pundits on all sides of the aisle are talking about a Constitutional crisis. The Trump administration (as I argued previously) has already violated the First Amendment rights of every student scooped off the street and thrown in detention because they criticized Israeli mass murder of over 50,000 Gazans, most of them women and children.

I completely reject the retort that such stances are “pro-Hamas.” More weaponized language! Conservatives, can’t you see it?!

Diagnosis: Trump’s anger.

Trump 1.0 said think like (in addition to the above): “Americanism, not globalism!” His instincts were of an economic nationalist and a cultural conservative — despite the less savory elements of his past.

Trump 2.0 probably still has those two instincts, but he’s much angrier. And if anyone has a right to be angry, it’s him.

The 2020 election was stolen.

Yes, it was.

I ran some numbers. Consider: in 2004, 123,069,054 official votes were cast. Bush the Younger won.

In 2008, 129,446,839 official votes were cast. Obama won that one.

In 2012, 126,849,299 official votes were cast. Obama won again.

In 2016, 128.838,342 official votes were cast. Trump won in the Electoral College.

See the range? Between 123 and 130 million votes seems normal for the post-2000 popular vote.

Know how many official votes were tallied in 2020?

Answer: 155,507,476!

Until someone can tell me where over 25 million new voters came from, especially during a year when there was massive mail-in voting because of Captain Covid, I’ll assume a “deep rig” even if I don’t have specifics, and no matter what the judiciary and William Barr said.

Trump’s supporters protested the steal, to the point of taking the ill-advised step of invading the Capitol. The Biden regime and leftist courts (and neocons like Liz Cheney) deemed them “insurrectionists” and imprisoned them.

Trump’s enemies spent the next four years trying to destroy him, using every legal/judicial tool they could command. They tried to keep him off the 2024 ballot as an “insurrectionist.” They accused him of concealing payments to a porn star, cheating by overvaluing his properties, making off with classified documents, and of being a sex abuser and rapist. Did I miss anything?

When none of this worked and it was clear, his supporters weren’t buying it, his enemies tried to assassinate him! Twice!

Not only that, the attempts dropped from the radar within two weeks. Can you imagine what would have happened had someone taken a shot at Obama? We’d still be hearing about it!

Might it not have been for the better, had Trump been allowed to win in 2020?

I don’t think we’d be in this mess!

Water under the bridge. We have Trump 2.0, and he’s operating off an anger-driven desire for revenge.

Anger may be a right, but it’s almost never a good idea.

If we were to do something most people including Trump don’t much do these days, like read a book — we’d learn from Seneca, the Roman Stoic philosopher and author of On Anger, how destructive and ruinous uncontrolled anger is.

And when the president of the United States, arguably still the world’s most powerful country with its strongest military, is an angry, vengeful person, it threatens not just his country but the world. (It may have already made him an eager pawn of the sociopaths who want war with Iran!)

Trump is not a systematic thinker….

Whatever Trump’s instincts are, systematic thought is not one of them. Neither him nor anyone in his orbit sees its importance. I’ve posted missives on the White House website more than once. I’ve yet to get a reply, not even from an underling.

A little reflective, systematic thought about our situation would be a good idea right now!

We had an opportunity, back in 2008 and again in 2012, to elect a systematic thinker. His name was Dr. Ron Paul.

No one was interested.

Dr. Paul, author of numerous books and countless articles outlining his worldview based on Christianity and the Constitution, lacked the charisma of a Donald Trump.

He retired in 2013. (Listen to his retirement address to Congress.)

Dr. Paul was arguably the last statesman the U.S. had, and I see no one else on the horizon. (J.D. Vance was schooled by Peter Thiel, another technocrat.)

The predicament we’re now in:

THERE IS NO ONE ELSE!

I can picture someone asking me sarcastically, would you have preferred a Kamala Harris win after all?

Of course not!

Nothing I’ve said changes the basic lying and deceitful nature of Establishment Democrats. They spent four years trying to hide Joe Biden’s cognitive decline and gaslighting us as “conspiracy theorists” when we stated the obvious. They lied about Russiagate. They lied about Charlottesville. They lied about Jeffrey Epstein’s being murdered in prison. They lied about Hunter Biden’s laptop calling it “Russian disinformation.” They lied about the origins of covid. This is all in addition to their lies about Trump.

The alternatives Democrats offer: people like AOC who’s dumber than Kristi Noem!

Republicans? No one who isn’t either a technocrat, like Ramaswami, or a neocon warmonger or another globalist. (DeSantis seems to have dropped from the national radar.)

That’s where we are, people!

There is no one else!

I’ve the impression Rome had the same problem in its final days.

His Muskiness and other technocrats would privatize the whole mess and institute full technocracy based on the technofeudalism I wrote about last week.

I’m not looking to anyone, since those with the money necessary to exact change are all on the side of decadence and destruction. And because even if there were someone, that person couldn’t fix the problems we face overnight, and we’re running out of time!

I’m done.

This will be my last political commentary. I’ve been doing this for around 35 years, and my work includes three other nonfiction books. There’s little more I can say that hasn’t been said, and if what I’ve said hasn’t accomplished anything at this point, it’s not likely to.

So I’m hanging up my word processor and preparing to do other things: family things. I won’t rule out posting occasional notes on Biblical studies, or possible self-improvement if I’ve happened upon something I’ve found useful. But I’m not prioritizing this.

The U.S. is toast, is it not? It is following the Roman, Arab, Napoleonic, Ottoman, and British empires into the history books. Its cities will doubtless still be around, as are the cities that once dominated those empires. But the country’s influence is already diminishing.

Most people, moreover, don’t want the truth. They say they do and tell themselves they do, but they don’t.

Somehow, though, truth/reality always wins out! The deepest and awfulest truth: all civilizations rise, peak, lose direction, turn into empires, become corrupt and decadent, then decline and are either conquered or fall from within.

The U.K.’s Sir John Bagot Glubb, in his 1978 essay “The Fate of Empires,” identified signs of the Age of Decadence we’re in. I’ve adapted and lengthened his list for our specific situation.

Materialism: the haves worship money like a god; intellectuals tell themselves God does not exist, promote the idea that when all is said and done we’re no more than big-brained animals, then wonder why so many act the part.

Triviality and evasion: intellectuals are primarily academics lost in clouds of micro-specialization who have nothing to say that common people find useful.

Frivolity: many of these last adopt an “eat, drink, and be merry” attitude. Don’t worry; be happy! This is the best time to be alive! (The rest count money, have sex, watch porn, take drugs, or all four.)

Superficiality: national heroes are celebrities, athletes, and entertainers, not statesmen or authors.

Abandonment of founding principles: the Constitution is literally now “just a piece of paper” no matter which party controls the White House or Congress.

Currency debauchment: the dollar has lost around 98 percent of its purchasing power since Nixon killed the gold standard in 1971. The belief that we can print our way to prosperity still holds.

Marginalizing of religion: see under materialism. Realize, too, that Evangelical Christianity is deeply corrupted by Scofieldism (dispensationalism) and Zionism.

Corruption of every dominant institution. I’ve written volumes on the decline of higher education, which I saw first-hand because I was there.

Influxes of foreigners, many illegal, who do not learn English, do not assimilate, were encouraged to enter the country by Democrats who wanted votes, Republicans who wanted cheap labor, and cultural Marxists who wanted to destroy traditional white Christian America.

Irrational, aggressive foreign policy often in the service of foreign powers (e.g., Israel).

Welfare-statism: more and more people seeking to live at the expense of a bloated state bureaucracy, including corporations seeking lucrative federal contracts (corporate welfare by any other name is still corporate welfare).

Women moving into occupations previously dominated by men, who are emasculated until they struggle to reassert a semblance of their masculinity in a “manosphere.”

An obsession with sex / gender fluidity.

Peter Turchin, in End Times: Elites, Counter-Elites, and the Path of Political Disintegration (2023), wrote of:

Massive and worsening economic inequality, in an environment in which the have-nots can justifiably suspect the haves of cheating. This, he argues compellingly from history, is fundamentally destabilizing.

Public immiseration, arrangements that harm ordinary Americans and make their lives miserable: unaffordable housing and healthcare are examples; so is a “gig economy.”

Overproduction of elite aspirants, more educated people trying to rise in a system than there are jobs or other positions for them to occupy, resulting in:

Rising counter-elites who appeal to frustrated elite aspirants and lead the adoption, increasingly, of a burn-it-all-down mindset.

I made my first predictions starting 35 years ago; they were ignored. Most came true. This is ignored.

So be it.

I see no hope that any of the above will be turned around in my lifetime, if ever, because the “influencers” capable of making a difference tend to be superficial, poorly educated, and without motivation to do more than make entertaining videos on TikTok. Most are complete ditzes at anything except getting seen online.

I’m not an “influencer.” Since you have to be one to expect, realistically, to make a difference, I’m going into retirement.

Is Trump the President or Not?

By Cliff Kincaid

April 28, 2025

We applaud the arrest of two Democratic judges in Wisconsin and New Mexico for aiding illegal aliens and interfering with federal immigration enforcement. On the federal level, however, President Trump’s policies are being undermined not only by the courts but his own personnel, in particular former Soros operative Scott Bessent, the Treasury Secretary. As Trump’s second term hangs in the balance, it is time for truth.

“No, the President Has Not Defied a Supreme Court Ruling,” is a headline from one of those “new” conservative outlets, The Free Press. But Trump SHOULD be defying the Court. Responsible conservative media should remind the president that he has the constitutional duty to defy the courts when they infringe on the powers of his office. What is more, it is time to consider the matter of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent undermining Trump’s effort – and campaign promises – to hold Red China accountable for poisoning the American people through COVID and fentanyl.

Look at the headlines on Thursday:

Three judges, including two Trump appointees, rule against the Department of Education’s anti-DEI policy (CNN).
Trump administration asks Supreme Court to let it enforce ban on transgender service members for now (CNN).
Judge blocks Trump effort to expand proof of citizenship requirement for voter registration (CNN).

Why is the Trump Administration pleading with the Court? This is humiliating.

In fact, as highlighted by the outlet known as Axios, federal judges ruled against the White House on four major policy initiatives.

In the previous anti-Trump 7-2 Supreme Court ruling against deportations, Lex Greene remarked, “The only two ‘constitutional justices’ on our Supreme Court dissented, while the other seven justices, including all three appointed to the bench by Trump, acted to subvert the constitutional powers of the Presidency, increasing the continuing violent threat to all legal US citizens in the process.”

What we desperately need is a president who will not only defy the Court but order his Attorney General to seek the removal of those interfering in the president’s attempt to protect America from a foreign invasion. They can be removed for “bad behavior.”

Please read the Constitution, specifically Article III. It says judges, both at the Supreme Court and inferior courts, “shall hold their offices during good behavior.” They are not entitled to life terms.

Again, Lex Greene comments that nothing in Article III suggests that a bad judge can only be removed from office via “impeachment.” He explains that a judge’s attempt to usurp the powers of the Oval Office from the bench is an attempt to undermine the Constitution and subvert the will of millions of American voters. As such, these decisions are a form of usurpation, subversion, sedition, and even “treason” and therefore constitute “bad behavior” at the very least.

I, for one, am getting sick and tired of those weak-kneed “conservatives” who think somehow that the president must take orders from the Court. He takes order from our founding documents, the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. The response, if people disagree with him, is impeachment by the legislative branch.

He most decidedly must not take orders from the Pope, and yet Trump is heading off to Rome to pay respects to the first Pontiff with pro-communist views who made deals with the Chinese Communist Party, allowing the communists to pick Catholic officials, and the Moscow-controlled Russian Orthodox Church.

Meanwhile, Trump’s statement that China tariffs will decrease “substantially” represents a blatant surrender to a regime that poisoned the world with a bioweapon and is continuing to ship chemicals to Mexican cartels making fentanyl to kill Americans.

At Trump’s scheduled 100-day rally in Michigan, he would be well-advised to urge mass resignations from the Court and their replacement by constitutional conservatives. He could also urge the installation of a new global Catholic leader like Pope John Paul II, the anti-communist pope who worked with President Reagan against communism worldwide.

Trump can’t afford to go soft on Red China at this critical juncture.

Trump is not a Catholic, but the church still has a lot of influence. The good news is that many who claim to be Catholics resist donating to a top-heavy bureaucracy implicated in child sex abuse scandals and cover-ups. Trump could order his Attorney General to investigate the church hierarchy under the terms of RICO for a racketeering conspiracy to hide financial assets from families of the victims through phony bankruptcy schemes. Such a move would be greeted by conservative Catholics looking for a revolution against the corrupt hierarchy.

Most importantly, Trump must take on Wall Street and the Big Banks.

To be sure, several important Wall Street operatives have taken Trump’s side, such as Morgan Stanley’s former top officer Michael Grimes, highlighted by the Wall Street Journal as “leading Trump’s Invest-in-America push.” But those on Wall Street fighting Trump’s America-first agenda are clearly on China’s side.

A real Trump revolution would not have allowed a former Soros operative in his cabinet. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is the openly gay former Soros operative and investor in a globalized world who is benefitting from what one outlet calls “a spate of leaks describing him as the economic team’s voice of sanity” in the Trump Administration. That means he is leaking to undermine Trump’s tariffs against Communist China.

How can Trump trust this guy? Bessent claims to have had a Damascus Road conversion to the America First agenda. Count me as a skeptic.

It is telling that Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro, who has been tough on China for decades, has been sidelined. It is a tragedy. Navarro went to prison for Trump.

The liberal “business” channels are ecstatic. Look at the headline about Bessent saying “there is an opportunity for a big deal here” on trade issues between the United States and China.

During the campaign, Trump demanded $50 trillion in reparations over the release of the China virus from the Wuhan lab. His White House has now posted a website over the “lab leak.”

It was not a leak; it was deliberate.

On Maria Bartiromo’s show on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures, Trump said China had to pay. “They have to pay reparations.” In this interview, he proposed $60 trillion in reparations.

Bessent is opposed to Elon Musk, who calls Soros a hater of humanity. It is Musk that the Democrats hate, as evidenced by their terror campaign against his electric cars and assassination attempts against him personally.

Wall Street and the Big Banks love Bessent.

I would add at this point: where is the official push for deporting Soros to his native Hungary to be tried for crimes against humanity?

Attorney General Pam Bondi can and should take action. Perhaps she could call Scott Bessent as a witness in Soros’ deportation trial, if Bessent will blow the whistle on his former boss.

Meanwhile, the president is backpedaling on matters that involve the war in Ukraine, blasting Ukraine one day and Russia the next, and the Iran nuclear weapons program, one day threatening to bomb their nuclear sites and then opening negotiations with the Islamists running the country.

Constitutional conservatives are getting worried as we pass the critical 100-day mark in Trump’s second term.

New Transparent Government? What about KAL Flight 007?

Authored by Devvy Kidd not AI

April 28, 2025

“One who deceives will always find those who allow themselves to be deceived.” —Niccolo Machiavelli

My last two columns dealt with promises by the new Trump administration to give the American people a transparent government instead of more secrecy and lies to protect rotten, crooked politicians, unelected bureau-rats and those – military or civilian – who are still in their jobs and outright hate President Trump.[1]

New Transparent Government? What About Bill Binney?

New Transparent Government? Former Congressman: What About 9/11?

It’s taken 62 years to release the files who really killed President Kennedy? A 62-year cover-up. Yes, promises have been made to release everything that’s been withheld, 63,400 pages which I haven’t read. However, many who are combing through those pages say it’s pretty much nothing we haven’t known for decades. [2] I’ve read several books on the assassination. One in particular is worth the time to read: The Man Who Knew Too Much: Hired to Kill Oswald and Prevent the Assassination of JFK by Dick Russell (Amazon)

If you read my two columns above you know the cover-ups and those responsible are still walking free (just like the OKC bombing) but perhaps we are making headway.

I’m guessing probably 90% of the American people have no idea what happened regarding KAL Flight 007 which happened 42 years ago in 1983.

Incident at SAKHALIN The True Mission of KAL Flight 007, Mine, November 19, 1999:

“For those who might be unfamiliar with this tragedy, on September 1, 1983, KAL Flight 007 was allegedly shot down by the Ruskies with all 269 civilians perishing in this crash, including United States Congressman Larry McDonald. Of all the accounts I have ever read, no luggage and no bodies or remains have ever been found. Incident at Sakhalin is not only compelling, it screams with cover-up, deception and demonstrates how this puppet government has decayed almost beyond redemption.

“Like Waco, OKC, TWA Flight 800 and Vince Foster, just to name a few major “incidents” in America, KAL 007 is another reprehensible and immoral cover-up. When enough Americans find out the truth about these tragedies, they will shed their final innocence and recognize how evil this puppet government has become over the past 90 years.

“I have found this particular incident quite fascinating since 1994 and have done a great deal of reading up on it from various sources, trying to sift through the conspiracy people’s fantasies to on- site investigation of the crash site and surrounding terrain.

“However, nothing prepared me for Incident at Sakhalin – the truth literally jumped from the pages and left me stunned. Sometimes it’s strange how things sometimes happen but I recently did a book review for this site regarding a new 1999 publication titled War Scare. Dr. Pry’s work reinforces what the author of Incident at Sakhalin discovered. These cross-references of some material between these two works lends a great deal of credibility to a massive cover-up.

“I personally wish to say God bless you Mr. Brun for all the sacrifices you had to make to bring the truth to light. The same applies to Mr. & Mrs. John Keppel for their sacrifices in helping bring the light of day on this travesty kept from the American people…

“Contrary to “official” reports from the United States and the International Civil Aviation Organization, KAL 007 was not shot down over Sakhalin but was destroyed off Honshu, the main Japanese island, nearly an hour later than the reports claimed and by means and for reasons still not clear.” (That’s a lie.)

“To say Incident at Sakhalin had me riveted to my reading chair is an understatement; it also raised the specter of absolute fear in my gut. Fear for something so lost in our great Republic, fear of how close America came to nuclear war and fear that the American people have become so apathetic, so dumbed-down and so “I, me, my” that they no longer care who this government kills as long as it doesn’t disturb their self-induced coma that protects their comfort zone. As you read the report below, let me quote from page 4 of Incident at Sakhalin:

“At precisely ten o’clock, the South Korean minister of foreign affairs announced that he had received confirmation from the CIA that “the plane had landed at Sakhalin. The crew and passengers are safe.”

Pg 5: “Let us examine the CIA announcement about which so much has been written: The aircraft did not explode in flight and did not crash, but is known to have landed on Sakhalin. The passengers and crew are safe and the aircraft is undamaged.”

Continuing: “Now, another remarkable thing happened back in 1994 during my first run for Congress: I was sent an eye-opening report by an individual in Israel who I didn’t even know, but the content of this material shocked me. Suddenly KAL 007 loomed in front of me and began my intense interest in this case.

“Additionally, this document led me to contact Senator Jesse Helm’s office, which turned out to be a rather intriguing but frustrating dead end, and one which raised big red flags. What I want to know is why Helms’ shelved the investigation and why those senior staffers who worked on the investigation in his office were replaced with a bunch of yuppies?

“Incident at Sakhalin was published in 1995 and I received this report in January of 1994; the report is dated March 1993. This report, which I discussed with Avraham Shifrin on a long-distance call that cost me plenty, contains some amazing allegations that led me to Jesse Helms’ office. I inquired of Mr. Shifrin how is it he had my name and address? He responded by saying that friends in the U.S. had sent them a list of people they thought would do whatever it takes to get the truth out about this “horrible cover-up.” A sigh from a butterfly would have knocked me over upon hearing that.

“One of the important things to remember as you read this: The United States of America and every other “official” mouthpiece for the Ruskies all maintain that KAL 007 was shot down. The document won’t scan too well, so, as usual, my fingers are going into hyper-drive and the following is a word-for-word presentation of this document (which, I might add, I have sent out probably 150+ copies over the years):” Rest at link and yes, Jesse Helms KNEW the Russians had OUR citizens, a U.S. Congressman and citizens of South Korea.” Full column at link.

KAL 007 (SAKHALIN INCIDENT) – FOLLOW-UP, Mine, December 10, 1999

U.S. Says Soviet Downed Korean Airliner; 269 Lost; Reagan Denounces ‘Wanton’ Act

President Demands Explanation For ‘Horrifying Act of Violence’ – “Santa Barbara, Calif., Sept 1 – President Reagan expressed revulsion today at the reported downing of a Korean Air Lines plane off the Soviet Coast.”

“Let’s read that sentence again: President Reagan expressed revulsion today at the reported downing of a Korean Air Lines plane off the Soviet Coast. Are we to believe that Ronald Reagan expressed revulsion over something that is “reported” to have happened? Are we to believe that with all the sophisticated equipment this nation has funded from planes to encryption devices, and everything in the arsenal of the NSA and DoD, that Reagan reacted with intense outrage over something that has only been “reported?”

“We’re to believe that the President of the United States of America didn’t really know what happened – and, this – two full days later – I’m supposed to believe this malarkey? Either the plane was shot down or it wasn’t and the President would darn well know the truth. Once you read Incident at Sakhalin, you’ll understand why I say this.

“When one considers that this government has repeatedly lied to the American people on one issue after another and that sometimes we don’t find out the truth about certain things until 50 years later, I would say that due to the enormity of the Ruskies holding a U.S. Congressman back in 1983 right at the time of important talks between the U.S. and Russia, that we have been lied to for political expediency. We also have to remember this was 16 years ago, before FOX news, before CNN and the Internet capability we have today. There was ample time and strong-arming to get the cover-up in place, i.e. withdrawing troops from the 32nd Parallel and foreign “aid”.

“Do you really think that the Vice President of Korean Air Lines just hopped a plane to go negotiate for the return of the passengers if there wasn’t something solid to make Mr. Choong-keun get on a flight? Come on. You can bet a number of people were notified that the plane set down either on Sakhalin or right off-shore, the passengers were alive and it was time for tea and talk. Remember Mr. Choong-keun’s statement: “I cannot tell how the plane came to land on Sakhalin….” In his own mind, he was positive the plane had landed and he was on his way to see about the passengers. Do you think Mr. Choong-keun became the vice-president of an airline company because he’s stupid?

“While Mr. Choong-keun was preparing to head for Sakhalin, already there was talk, at least to UPI, that American officials would join in on the negotiations for return of the passengers. Are we to believe that the Korean Broadcasting Service “quoting government officials” that the jumbo jet landed at Sakhalin at 4 a.m. was just a big lie put out? What purpose would that serve? Remember, this is within a few hours after the incident when everything was happening at once – just like OKC, just like TWA flight 800. The Ruskies forced another KAL flight down in 1978 – they didn’t shoot it down – they accompanied it to a forced landing. How come they just decide to blast this one out of the sky? Read Incident at Sakhalin and you’ll see what was really going on over that island.

“Notice the details provided in all coverage on September 1^st, yet the next day, suddenly all that is pushed aside in favor of the Russians blasting the plane out of the sky. Not consistent at all, just like OKC and TWA Flight 800. Suddenly in all these horrible events, those who saw things, actually didn’t’ see them at all. Only “government officials” know or see anything. There were all kinds of speeches and blustering done by America and the Ruskies but in the end, the cover-up was firmly jelled where it has remained for 16 years and 4 months.

“The New York Times piece September 1^st adds that an airline official in Seoul said that afternoon that an explosion might have occurred in midair. Which airline official? Remember, the vice-president of KAL is already on his way to negotiate for the return of the passengers.

“Remember the Rocky Mountain News and New York Times on September 2^nd stating that the United States had sent all this sophisticated AWACS surveillance aircraft and so forth to search for the wreckage? If you read Incident at Sakhalin, you know this was nothing more than pap for the people who had no way to verify anything being said.” Do read the whole column.

Flight KAL 007 – Bring Our People Home Now, Mine, August 29, 2001

“In a dramatic turn of events, evidence has now surfaced (some quite literally from the bottom) proving that KAL 007 had indeed ditched successfully off the shores of tiny Moneron Island, and that the passengers and crew were rescued to be held captive in the former Soviet Union.

“Here in this book, are the unparalleled transcripts and chronicling of the whole Soviet hierarchy from the Commander of the Far East Military District down to Major Osipovich squeezing the trigger.

“Here are the high level, and sometimes vehement, interchanges that resulted in both the shooting down and the ordering of rescue missions involving KGB patrol boats, helicopters, and civilian trawlers around Moneron.

“And, here finally, is the evidence we need to bring our people home. Senator Jesse Helms to Boris Yeltsin – December 10, 1991: “The KAL 007 tragedy was one of the most tense incidents of the entire Cold War…Please provide a detailed list of the camps containing live passengers and crew, together with a map showing their location.”

“The son-in-law of one of the passengers of the ill-fated Korean Air Lines Flight 007, shot down by a Russian air air-missile in 1983, Bert Schlossberg has dedicated the past ten years to researching the question of passenger rescue and survival, as well as Soviet resistance to disclosure connected with this mysterious flight.” -End-

“If you take the time to read my posts from last year, one of the most important pieces of information that proves the big lie promoted by former Secretary of State, George Shultz and Ronald Reagan is found in the book, Incident at Sakhalin…

“Bert Schlossberg, his wife and four children live in Jerusalem. His new book is so sickening, you just want to walk outside and pound the heck out of something. Every time I work one of these stories, it makes me sick. Think this can’t happen to you? I darn straight guarantee you that if you’re on some international flight and something happens like what happened with KAL 007, this government, at the direction of the shadow group who pull the strings of these puppets in Congress and the White House, will write you off as nothing more important than a speck of lint.” Rest at link and do read.

All the survivors have lived their lives in captivity; no doubt many have already died since this happened 42 years ago. Can you imagine the agony of the families both American and South Koreans all these years? And the hostages? Jesse Helms took the truth to his grave but all the official documents will tell the truth.

Unresolved Questions Surround KAL 007, Sept. 1, 2009: “After KAL 007, President Reagan addressed the nation, referring to the incident as a “crime against humanity which must never be forgotten.” However, within a year, Reagan’s administration was working to restore normal relations with the Soviet Union. Among the passengers of KAL 007 was Rep. Larry McDonald (D-GA), who was both a member of the House of Representatives and chairman of the John Birch Society, but the “collateral damage” from the Soviet attack included another member of Congress: Senator Henry “Scoop” Jackson (D-WA), whose last public appearance was at a press conference denouncing the Soviet Union. Sen. Jackson died of an aortic aneurysm on September 1, 1983.

“In a Foreword to Jeffrey St. John’s 1984 book on the KAL 007 attack, Day of the Cobra, Sen. Jesse Helms (R-N.C.) recounted meeting the family of Neil Grenfell from flight 007 while his own plane, KAL 015, was on the ground at the Anchorage airport at the same time as KAL 007, and his immediate emotional connection with the two Grenfell daughters: “In the quiet of the night, I can still hear those precious children laughing. “I can feel their little arms around my neck. I can see them waving good-bye and blowing kisses to me as they departed. I simply cannot accept their deaths. My mind rejects any notion that a civilized country could wantonly, intentionally, premeditatedly shoot down an unarmed plane loaded with innocent men, women, and children.”

“With time, Sen. Helms continued to make inquiry of Soviet, and later Russian, rulers seeking to determine what actually happened to the passengers of KAL 007. As was recounted for The New American last year,” Rest at link.

Are KAL 007 Passengers Held by Russians? Mine, April 3, 2005: “No bodies or luggage was ever found at the alleged crash site and wreckage didn’t amount to anything larger than a Piper single aircraft. All passengers disappeared from this Russian controlled area.

“The families of KAL 007 Rescue have been receiving information of sightings for years that their family members are being held against their will in Russian prisons. Here are the most recent as reported by Mr. Bert Schlossberg, International Director International Committee for the Rescue of KAL 007 Survivors:” Rest at link.

Bert Schlossberg email (bertexie@gmail.com) March 27, 2025: “Dear Families and Friends, (Emphasis mine)

“I am seeking your help now to join with me in various ways concerning the work I have been doing since 1991 – the bringing back home of the survivors of the Sept. 1, 1983 shoot down of KAL 007. There has been an acceleration in public interest in this matter, which I have not seen in all these years. There is the beginning of a network of people that feel that a great injustice has been done, that there really are survivors that have been carted away and hidden away by the Soviet Union, that many may still be alive.

“I have seen this interest grow before my eyes. There is even an opening that has come to petition the government to open up archives and classified material- like as has been now done for the assassination of President Kennedy. There is now more of an opening to knock on doors, literally and figuratively, of government officials, of Committee members, of President Trump himself. I Iike that! There is a song in Hebrew that Shoshana Demari sung lovingly – Im ninalu dalthei nidhavim, l’o ninalu dalthai Marom, ” If the Gates of benefactors are locked, the Gates on High are not locked! Jesus taught that!

“In the light of this I have written up a manual for these people to read. Not a book, an illustrated (Photos, Charts, etc.) Manual that they read, that they can reread, that they can study, and decide to do something about, even be inspired to devote themselves to. This Manual is about finished. I do not know yet what to do with it. You can give me some ideas. (bertexie@gmail.com) I am thinking of having them printed in an inviting way, that people can even take with them where they are going, perhaps call their friends together to discuss it in their homes or forming local study groups. I don’t know.

“You please tell me your thoughts, your ideas, Pray with me. Pray for me. I have never in all these years asked for a dime from anyone for this KAL 007 work, I am asking now. More than a dime! Can you consider giving a gift that will cover a professional printing job, for perhaps hundreds of this Manuals? Yes, I forgot to mention, there are Media people, and investigative journalists I want to send to. And God willing and giving me strength, I may have to travel to various locations. to see people and talk to them. I need others with me. I am asking for this as well.

“Thanks for your help! Bert Schlossberg, Director, the International Committee for Rescue of KAL 007 Survivors www.rescue007.org – “On September 1, 1983, Korean Air Lines flight 007, on its way from Anchorage, Alaska to Seoul, Korea, carrying 269 passengers and crew, strayed off its intended course and entered into Soviet airspace. A Soviet Sukhoi 15 fighter jet, piloted by Major Gennadie Osipovich, was sent up to destroy the intruding Boeing 747.

“This, at the height of the Cold War era, was a major international incident. At the time, it was – and still is – widely believed that the plane “exploded”, “plummeted uncontrollably” into the ocean, and was “destroyed”, killing all aboard, including Lawrence (“Larry”) Patton McDonald, Representative (D), 7th District, Georgia.

“The evidence, however, tells another story. Japanese radar tracking, Soviet ground-to-ground and ground-to-air communications, KAL 007’s flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder, the debris (and lack thereof), eye-witness testimonies… All these and more, when pieced together, tell of a plane which was, indeed, damaged, but which managed to land safely, and of passengers who survived and were rescued by the Russians — only to be imprisoned to this day.” End on the web site. He is absolutely right.

Send this link to X and your social media platforms. True transparency would mean Trump’s State Dept pursuing the truth from the Russians and any and all classified documents released. There were children on that flight who, if survived, are now adults.

The EVIDENCE doesn’t lie. If you read my columns above (and I’ve read the books) this is an on-going immoral, grotesque cover-up. One I believe President Trump would take great interest in if he sat down and spoke with Schlossberg personally. Considering the dangerous environment over in Ukraine, the insanity of the EU and the terrorist threats that are very real, think about all the passengers on KAL 007 who innocently boarded their plane and a few hours later, never to be heard from again – think it can’t happen to YOU or your family if you fly to another country this summer for a vacation?

Earth Day: Let’s Take Stock of How Much Damage We’re Doing To This Planet

By Frosty Wooldridge

April 28, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Answer: we accelerated our abuse beyond imagination.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

What about human starvation rates since Earth Day 1970?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Systematic Killing of America, Part 1

By Pastor Glynn Adams

April 27, 2025

“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. (Hosea 4:6)

I will be 88 in a few more months and the America most of us grew up in is gone. All that is left is the memories of what she used to be like. We had a Christian-world-view, we were united in our culture by family, faith, language, values, history, and a work ethic. Our educational systems and family teachings made us responsible citizens and we grew up loving and appreciating our country.

In her wake, this country has been systemically and deliberately dumbed down and transformed into a place unrecognizable – a place being invaded by New World Marxists Elites that do not love this nation, a place now plagued by drugs, poverty, pornography, sexual immorality, greed, crime, hate, division, and violence. Our American hard-work ethic has been changed to “give me.” There is no faith that unites us and modern Americans remain almost completely oblivious of our history. Most do not know our Constitution or the Word of God and do not understand how our government given to us by our Founding Fathers works.

Today, over seventy percent of our citizens believe that the strength of America lies in its diversity and ninety percent remain ignorant that a quota system ever existed in our immigration system until 1965. Before 1965, Muslims and people from the third world countries had a very, very hard time getting into this nation. But now we have a Biblical curse on our nation because of our disobedience to God and no wall or no one, including our government, can stop this Biblical curse “of aliens invading our land” until Christians repent and begin to defend against the destruction of this nation.

God gave Christians dominion of this earth, and He gave Christians His Name, His power, His authority, His Word, and His mighty weapons to address evil, and Christians in America have a responsibility against evil overtaking our nation which we have not accepted. Now most of these aliens along with many of our citizens depend on the government while American unity and sense of patriotism has given way to division, anarchy, hate, and those pushing their evil ideology. We may feel good about having the President we want, but evil is still at work destroying our nation without hardly any opposition. The President may be busy but Christians certainly are not at the level they should be.

Many citizens just shake their head today in frustration and do not have a clue or any understanding of what has happened to our nation. If you want to know the truth of what has happened to our nation, you must go back to a man whose name is Cecil John Rhodes. To understand history, you must understand people’s motivation, not just their actions. From Cecil Rhodes to many other men, we will have a hard time grasping how hard-hearted people in positions of power and wealth could be. We will have trouble understanding how people could sell out their nation and people for money and power. Truly the love of money is the root of all evil. Pride, greed, and power drive men to do the unthinkable.

Through the years, we have politicians who promise one thing and do another. It seems that many have sold their soul to the highest bidder. It’s ironic – our ignorance of what is going on is beyond belief – today we send our brightest and smartest kids to Oxford University, the hub of Marxism, as Rhodes Scholars to sell their souls not realizing they will become disciples of Communism, Marxism, Socialism, Globalism, World Government, Council on Foreign Relations, multiculturalism, and other evil ideologies. Can I say President Bill Clinton?

This systematic destruction of our nation has been going on full steam for approximately 124 years. From Cecil John Rhodes to the 30s our government foundations were changed greatly by evil men. From the 40s to the 50s, America had a Christian world view and God was at home in our nation so evil and their changes were forced to go underground, but they kept working. But the early 60s to present brought about the greatest changes. In the 70s and 80s, many of us endeavored to expose the problems and to do something about it, but were silenced, mostly by church leadership and media. However, it is time for Christians and citizens alike to stand up and say, “Enough is enough,” and draw a line in the sand.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn, a persecuted Christian from Russia, came to America and warned us of what was going on spiritually and few listened. He said, “To destroy a people, you must first sever their roots.” While they rewrote our history, dethroned our God, took the Word of God, prayer, and Ten Commandments out of our culture and schools, polluted our culture, assaulted our values, and demonized us for holding to beliefs we have held on to for generations, the Body of Christ in America not only remained silent but totally ignored evil in this nation and we are doing the same today. So few Christians are fighting against evil today that when anyone does anything at all it seems like a lot.

Our spiritual neglect has caught up with us. Years ago in Hosea 4:6 NKJV, God said, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me. Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.” Our pastors and church members are not hearing God speak today. For too long now, our American Culture Churches and our cowardly pastors have ignored the spiritual signs of our failing nation. We have ignored that our gospel is ineffective against the spiritual forces of evil and darkness in our nation.

We have ignored that as Christians are no longer functioning as God’s priest. We no longer seek God’s eternal purpose for our lives. We have reduced Christianity to going to a building. We have ignored the fact that God has forgotten our children. Many of our children no longer go to church and we are losing our children to Satan and his world system and its ways. We have made Jesus “in our image” to fit our American culture, and “our gospel” has no power.

How long will we continue to ignore the obvious? How long before we repent and change our ways to His Way? How long before we take a stand, expose, speak out, and move to bring about a reformation? How long before we abandon these false religious systems we have made with our flesh and earthly knowledge and preach what Jesus preached – the Kingdom of God – and embrace that Kingdom of God message of Jesus Christ so God can “ influence and rule” in the hearts of our people in America? How long before we make true disciples of Christ that obey His Word and do His will on earth as it is done in heaven? How long will we continue to allow the evil forces in this nation to make Socialists and Muslim disciples of our people?

Do we feel so strongly about this that if it means death so be it? Are we going to leave our children and grandchildren in bondage or freedom? God’s judgment is all over America and we are unraveling at mock speed. Christians don’t see it because we are too busy being religious and positive!!!!! But our time of grace is running out in America and we are running out of people that make WE THE PEOPLE effective. Every day we have less and less Christians and citizens to keep our nation.

Christians are not making disciples, our people are dying out, and we have very few children in our generation pipeline, while evil is graduating their disciples every year out of our public schools and universities as well as flooding over our borders. Christians see the signs everywhere yet we remain blatantly disobedient to our God and do nothing with the resources God has provided for us. God will meet us at the battlefield and little is a lot when God is in it but the blind and undiscerning Christians in America just can’t seem to grasp that!!!!!

I do not enjoy writing articles like this but my LORD has commissioned me and I shall obey Him. Christians had better awake from their religious coma and hear what God is saying to the church in America. This article was written with the help of a new book, the “Killing of Uncle Sam” by Pastor Rodney Howard- Browne and Paul l. Williams. God bless, I remain His warrior and watchman, Glynn Adams (My next articles will be Part II of the Systematic Killing of America)

Marriage & Family — Doing Life Right

By Rob Pue

April 27, 2025

In my work as a Christian newspaper publisher, radio commentator at TV host, I often have people contact me requesting prayer and counseling. Most all who come for prayer and counsel are Christians. They come in various stages of spiritual maturity. Some are baby Christians, some have been following the Lord for years, and the vast majority of requests I get are for those in troubled marriages and families. So today, I’d like to talk about marriage and family, and I hope and pray you’ll hear and understand what I have to say and put my advice into action.

It’s no secret that the enemy of our souls has been working hard to destroy the natural family — one man, united in the bonds of Holy Matrimony to one woman, both faithful to one another and raising Godly children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. Today, God’s natural design for the family is under intense assault on every level. Satan uses a “divide and conquer” strategy to destroy the family, by getting us to focus on ourselves, rather than on serving those we love.

This is not how God would have us to live. Marriage between one man and one woman is His perfect plan for us, one of the first, most basic and essential things we learn about in the very first chapter of the Bible. In Genesis 1 we read, “God created man in His own image. In the image of God created He him; male and female created He them. And God blessed them and God said unto them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply.’” There we have it: God’s design for marriage and family. Couldn’t be simpler. And God’s plans are always perfect. Yet we think we know better.

By the way, the word “Matrimony” literally means “Motherhood.” Not so long ago, people understood this. It’s God’s perfect design that only in the bonds of Holy Matrimony should a woman become a mother. You see, any male and female can fornicate, and sadly, in today’s permissive, Godless culture, more often than not, precious innocent children created in the image of God, are viewed as “accidents,” “inconveniences,” born as the result of unbridled sexual lust between two unmarried, uncommitted people…or worse yet, murdered in the womb.

Now compare that to the security of an intact, Godly home with a devoted Mother and Father, who have given themselves, one to another, and entered into the sacred bonds of Holy Matrimony, where the “D” word is not even in their vocabulary; where they build their lives together and their homes, and their families on the Word of God. A home where Jesus is not only welcome but earnestly sought after! We have more dysfunctional families today than ever before because we have chosen to turn from God and ignore all the precious wisdom He has imparted to us in His Holy Word, the Bible.

Families are in turmoil today. Innocent children are being lured away from goodness and truth by the lies, deceptions and wickedness they’re surrounded by in public schools, on social media, through TV shows and movies, in the hideous noise that masquerades as popular “music” today — and all of it is filled with sexual perversion, obscenity, horror and filth. An hour a week in church, or two hours a week at an entertainment-based church youth group cannot compete for the hearts, minds and souls of our children, when the children are immersed in vile lies, deception and sexual perversion non-stop, every day, all day.

And so we have a generation of the most confused, depressed and hopeless kids we’ve ever seen in America. Often as the children are lured away into the LGBTQP+ cult, into “transgenderism,” violence, self-abuse and drug use, the parents are at a loss as to what to do. After all, they take them to church every week. They send them to youth group every week. Isn’t that enough? Of course it’s not. Absolutely not. They face enormous peer pressure in our culture daily. They face unimaginable temptations as the enemy lures them away from God with perverted enticements at every turn. They just want to “fit in,” they just want to be accepted — and the one thing that will assure they’re not accepted by their peers is to be a Godly, righteous young person, knowing right from wrong and standing steadfastly on the side of that which is right.

So how do we mend all these dysfunctional families? How do we train up a child in the way he should go, so that when he’s old he won’t depart from it? We must be real Christ-followers and Bible students all our lives ourselves. It begins with us. Parents must model true Christianity in their homes as the children watch and learn what true Christianity is. As Titus 2 tells us, “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present age.”

But sadly, in the vast majority of homes today, there’s little to no regard for the grace of God, or the salvation He brings. There’s no understanding — much less seeking and following the guidance of the Holy Spirit, who teaches us to deny ungodliness and worldy lusts and instead, live soberly, righteously and Godly, in this present age. No, today, even professing Christians go out of their way to engage in ungodliness and worldly lusts and find ways to justify that behavior in their minds.

But, Christianity isn’t just something we “do” once a week. It’s more than a fish symbol on the back of your car. It’s more than a pizza party at a youth group meeting. It’s real and genuine — and kids today are starving for that which is true, real and genuine. Knowing that what you know is real is the solid rock foundation of unshakable security and certainty. Precisely what’s lacking in the lives of our young people now.

Make no mistake, if you live soberly, righteously and Godly, you will be counter cultural. Your family, friends and neighbors will think you’re fanatics. Your children will not be welcomed into the various popular cliques at school, either — but that’s a good thing, because you’ll be preparing them for the spiritual warfare that will assail them all their lives. And as you do battle daily in the spiritual realm, keeping your hearts and minds on Christ Jesus, your children will learn to do the same all of their lives. Yeah, you’ll be a “peculiar people,” alright. But isn’t that what God’s Word tells us to be?

And, if you live this way, goodness and mercy will follow you all the days of your life. Don’t misunderstand here. Scripture doesn’t promise you’ll be healthy or wealthy or that no evil will ever cause you any sorrow or grief. Most assuredly, you will be mocked and ridiculed for His name’s sake. You’ll be targeted by the enemy, tested and sifted. But the Scripture says that “goodness and mercy will follow you.” This means that as you walk through life in this world, you’ll spread goodness and mercy behind you, as you go. It follows you. You must go first, living soberly, righteously and Godly lives. And then, goodness and mercy follow behind you. And then, those who may see you as an oddball at first, will soon come to realize that they desperately need what you have.

So, you live a God-honoring, Christ-centered life, and then look behind you as you go, and you’ll see the goodness and mercy of God that you leave in your wake. Trust me, this will impact more people than you realize, not the least of which are going to be your own children…and their children.

Now, I’ve talked about how to have a Godly family. But your marriage comes first. In order to have a Godly family the way God designed, a man and woman must first become one in marriage. Our Creator is awesome and amazing, the way He knits us together in our mothers’ wombs, the way He knows all about us before we’re ever born. I believe He creates individual men with specific individual women in mind. In other words, He created me just for my wife; He created my wife, just for me. What an amazing gift from our most gracious, loving Father, God.

When we first meet our spouse, we’re enamored with them. We’re infatuated. We’re “in love.” As young men, we pursue our wives to impress them and win their hearts and their favor. We seek their acceptance, their approval and love. Unfortunately, after marriage, so many couples let the cares of this world disrupt and even destroy their marriages. We allow resentment to enter in, rather than God’s Holy Spirit.

I understand that people get tired, and this can lead to fatigue, boredom, laziness and complacency. I suppose it’s much easier to spend time in the evening watching some inane sitcom on TV or playing on your phone or computer. This is how it is for so many today. Then, after wasting the evening in these ways, night after night, you just go to bed, sleeping with your back to your loved ones. The spark that was once there flickers out due to neglect, and the marriage slowly dies. I’ve seen it over and over again.

And as your once-exciting, beautiful marriage becomes “old” and “routine,” many seek to renew that old romantic “spark” — but with a new partner. I’ve seen this over and over again too. Today, many go into marriage believing in the idea of “50/50” … they believe the burdens and chores that are a necessary part of everyday life should be split equally. So each one feels they should put in 50% of the effort, expecting the other half from their spouse.

This does not work. Just try it in school. Do you know what 50% will get you on a test? An “F” — a failing grade. Putting 50% of your effort into your marriage means you have failed. You see, a good and Godly marriage means you always strive for 100%. You both do, as you work to serve one another. And therein lies the key to it all: serve one another.

Speaking as a husband, father and grandfather, I’ve learned that our job as men is to be the leader and the minister in the household. And in case you’re not aware, the definition of “minister” is “servant.” Jesus told us we must be the servant of all. We’re not to be so petty as to keep track of how much our spouse is doing. Instead, we make sure we’re putting in our 100%, and as we do that, we lead — by example. Give your wife 100% of your love, time and attention and you’ll soon find that your wife will be doing the same for you. Your marriage will not just remain strong, but you’ll grow closer together as the two of you become one — not just physically, but spiritually as well. Not to mention the fact that you’ll be modeling Godly marriage for your children to see.

Proverbs 18 tells us that “he who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.” Proverbs 31 reminds us that our wives are more precious than jewels. Guys, don’t take your wife for granted. Instead, go out of your way to intentionally serve her on a regular basis. Be a gentleman. Protect her, provide for her, make her life easier and give her the security of the assurance of your love. Pray with each other and for each other. Instead of wasting time on vain and useless things, invest your time in truly loving the wife God has given you. She’s the greatest blessing you will ever receive in this world. Do the dishes, wash the laundry, take care of the yard. Beyond the manual labor and chores, bless her with a foot massage, rub her tired, sore back. Kiss her and express your love often. Treasure her. Let her know she’s your number one priority.

1 Peter 3 tells us to show honor to our wives and if we don’t, our prayers will be hindered. In other words, if truly loving our precious wives is not a priority for us, God’s not going to be too interested in hearing our prayers. Our duties as men are: God first, our wives second and our families third. Because if God is first in our lives, we’ll naturally be grateful for the wonderful wife He’s given us and treat her accordingly, and together, we’ll raise up Godly children for the glory of God. This is how you do life right. This is God’s way. If you’re unhappy in your marriage and family, it’s time to get your priorities in order. It’s time to deny your self interests and start serving, honoring and adoring your wife.

Islam: America’s Historical Failure

By Amil Imani

April 26, 2025

Honestly, I don’t know what will work! Apathy, political correctness, and massive Islamic lobbying have successfully prevented the public from truly grasping the all-pervasive, invasive Islamic assault.

As usual, the sworn enemies of the United States- leftist politicians, hungry for votes- despise America and harbor hatred for our Constitution. They delightfully embraced and welcomed this ‘Trojan Horse’ army inside our gates. It was a perfect marriage; both sides needed one another to survive.

These desert dwellers and the Quran-trained people, aided by our leftist politicians, exploit the provisions of the most benevolent system known to humanity- our democratic republic – to undermine it from within.

Islamists, by sheer numbers, will eventually be in a position to vote out democracy in many countries. They will elect Muslims to all positions of local influence, who will create and enforce policies according to the Quran. Once they control a town, they will establish informal Sharia, and there’s nothing the government can (or will want to) do about it.

Oddly enough, our elected officials have entirely overlooked the Islamization of European cities. Many European leaders have acted out of intense fear, granting Muslims the right to create their own shadow governments within countries like Sweden, England, the Netherlands, France, and Belgium, where they control their populations through Sharia Law without any accountability.

America, the greatest superpower on the planet, is gradually losing its power to these newcomers, and out of fear of being labeled racist, they, too, look the other way and remain silent.

The United States was in an excellent place to learn from its fellow European allies and stop this mess of Islamic immigration before it was too late. Even the attacks of 9/11 were not convincing enough for many of our fellow American citizens to wake up!!

Rather than seek a drastic solution to halt the progress of Islam, some of our fellow citizens and elected officials have welcomed more Muslims for resettlement and provided additional resources at the taxpayers’ expense to establish more mosques.

By now, we know that the apparatus that moves Islamic ideology is the life manual of Islam: the Quran, the Hadith, and the Sunna. Unfortunately, Muslims themselves are the ones who Islam most victimizes. They have inherited this viral psychological disease of hate and violence that they live by and transfer it to their children, as well as to sympathetic people in their cause.

It is generally assumed that peaceful religions address matters of importance to daily life and those that transcend it. Religion is believed to exercise a civilizing influence by structuring social life, promoting spirituality, and advancing a range of human virtues. Zoroaster, for instance, based his faith on the triad of good thoughts, good speech, and good deeds; Moses framed the fundamentals of his faith in the Ten Commandments; and Jesus placed love at the core of his beliefs.

Many people adhere to religion to find comfort and guidance in life. These perceived benevolent aspects of religion give it a special status. However, concerns about religious overreach have prompted societies to implement safeguards against that possibility.

The bottom line is that Islam remains a paradox for many, including America’s law enforcement agencies. Many so-called experts have struggled to decipher and understand this ideology, except for a few individuals I know.

It is a virtue to take action to oppose the hateful, a vice to ignore it. It is a virtue to hate tyranny, misogyny, discrimination of all sorts, oppression, and all manner of violations of the legitimate rights of individuals and peoples. Islam is a form of religious fascism, a destroyer of liberty and much of what free people cherish. Therefore, it must be confronted and destroyed ideologically.

Fellow Americans, it is time for us to confront the advancement of Islam in America. The destiny and survival of the free world are at stake. Avoiding this responsibility would be an unpardonable act by every enlightened individual and organization that values humanity.

Only Communists and Idiots Prefer Income Tax Rather Than Tariffs

By Andrew Wallace

April 26, 2025.

Communism promotes Income Taxes to impoverish and control the people. Our Constitutional Republic is simply impossible with Income Taxes. We were free and prosperous funding government with Tariffs until Income Taxes replaced tariffs in the Coup of 1913

Tariffs may increase prices on some imported products. But I would welcome an increase in prices to get rid of the Income Tax. An increase in prices due to tariffs is welcome because it means that more Americans are working at higher wages in more factories, the American Dream and middle class has returned. An increase in prices will be normalized and should give people substantially increased purchasing power with a demise of Income Taxes.

It is the opinion of many that the Great Depression of the thirties was engineered by the Federal Reserve Bank and not the Smoot- Hawley Tariffs.

The fact that workers in some foreign countries earn less than Americans and have a lower standard of living is not relevant. Our circumstances and Economy are separate from others; we are in a position to prosper regardless of what other countries can do.

I say again, If the income tax is terminated in favor of Tariffs the savings to consumers would be enormous. It would also result in the revitalization of thousands of towns and cities (The Rust Belt).

The Parasitic Super Rich Ruling Class (PSRRC) , the wealthy families knew what President Trump would do. So for more than 8 years they vilified, smeared, indicted and framed him to the point that some of their followers attempted to assassinate him, twice. The reason is obvious; The PSRRC will lose trillions from the factories they moved overseas. The PSRRC is responsible for the decline in employment in middle class jobs because they shipped them oversea for massive profits. The PSRRC took away the American Dream which will now be possible again. The PSRRC owned media will scream sales tax and inflation to denigrate Tariffs ( we prospered until Coup of 1913 using tariffs) . But just remember that the foreign producer must absorb part or all of the tariffs to do business here. The PSRRC will lose big time on their foreign factories that created the unemployment and Rust Belt that killed the American Dream.

Regardless of how we fund the Federal Establishment (income taxes or tariffs) we will end up in abject poverty and revolution if we don’t return to a Constitutional government. President Trump is smart but not smarter than the founders. To survive he must follow the Constitution exactly, to the letter. Trump is now ignoring major parts of the Constitution which guarantees ultimate failure..

Constitutional government means we must terminate all unconstitutional functions of the federal establishment which I estimate to be more than 50% of expenditures. This defines 50% of establishment to be a Criminal Enterprise. It is impossible for our present unlawful form of Establishment to continue wither funded by income tax or tariffs.

We don’t have forever to correct our unlawful government. Overhanging everything is our dire Economic situation (Debt, currency devaluation and inflation) and a growing discontent of taxpayers who object to funding able bodied Communists on welfare in cities and Communist California. In the past such discontent led to Dystopia (paid Democrat/Communist thugs burning, looting, and killing when the economy tanks)..

I estimate that the Establishment (including Criminal enterprise) spends 40% more than their federal income (about $2 Trillion) The Federal Reserve Bank finances the 40% with fiat dollars printed out of thin air. This money does not equal the value of new goods or services produced and is therefore inflationary ( a tax on the people and reducing value of the dollar). Interest on the existing debt exceeds $1 Trillion almost matching the cost of the military about $1 Trillion. The total of both are equal to about40% of income. I should point out that every dollar given to able bodied communists ( welfare & illegals) or government workers who don’t produce comparable goods or services is inflationary, and reduces the value of the dollar. You can see the rapid decline in value of the dollar by observing the rapid increase in the dollar cost of gold ( in 1934 gold was $35 dollars an oz and the dollar was $.98 cents, now gold is over $3,300 an oz and the dollar is $.02 cents).

Reminder, I refer to the Federal Establishment, not government because it is not a sovereign government like the states, most of it is unconstitutional and therefore a criminal enterprise with no legal support whatsoever.

Again, as is my wont, I have covered only some of the key points, otherwise I would have to write a book for far fewer readers. I have noticed that few federal officials are aware of some of the points covered. My compensation for the time and risk of writing is for readers to voluntarily forward articles to federal officials who would appreciate it as much as the devil appreciates the cross.

May God Bless You and the Republic

What Is Our Future

By Wylee Marshall

April 25, 2025

Can anyone predict the future of our beloved country? What will be the outcome of our Constitutional Republic experiment? It is hard to know unless you examine all the evidence.

This nation began its life as a Constitutional Republic, but has it already shifted to a socialist democracy?

The 17th Amendment, ratified on April 8^th,1913, allowed the direct election of U.S. Senators by the people. Arguments favoring the Amendment declared that it reduced corruption by preventing wealthy individuals from influencing state legislatures to appoint senators favorable to their interests. Citizens gained more direct control over their representation in the Senate by increasing democratic participation. Some states struggled to agree on senators, leaving seats vacant.

What were the arguments against the 17^th Amendment of 1913?

The original system was meant to give states a direct role in federal governance, but it resulted in federal overreach by reducing states’ ability to check the national government. Then, the Supreme Court expanded its role by asserting its power to declare acts of Congress unconstitutional.

Was this the outcome of the 17^th Amendment? As witnessed by the DOGE, the 17th Amendment did not reduce corruption. It concentrated more power in Washington, D.C., away from the people!

Research by Devvy Kidd and Dane vonBreichenruchardt, President of the Bill of Rights Foundation, Washington, DC., found that the Amendment was not ratified appropriately. Constitutional Attorney Larry Becraft researched the ratification of the 16th and 17th Amendments simultaneously and found neither was ratified constitutionally.

1913 was a particularly devastating year and ended our Constitutional Republic. The 16^th Amendment was ratified, or not, on February 3^rd, 1913, allowing the federal government to impose a permanent income tax for the first time. The Federal Reserve Act was signed into law on December 23^rd, establishing the Federal Reserve System, the central banking system of the U.S. today. Woodrow Wilson was the sitting president when these changes took place. If you want to understand why NATO is going after Russia, it is because Russia is the only major country in the world that does not have a Rothschild Central Bank! That is the reason for the war in Ukraine!

There are huge concerns about the 16^th Amendment. There is strong opinion that it was never appropriately ratified.(https:/www.thelawthatneverwas.com/ In William J. Benson’s report, he found that the U.S. Government committed treason in declaring it ratified. The 16th Amendment was proposed on July 2nd, 1909, and illegally ratified three years and seven months later on February 3, 1913, by Secretary of State Philander Knox. The Federal Reserve Act was supposedly signed into law on December 23, 1913, just two days before the holiday, when most opposition had gone home for Christmas. This Act established the Central Banking System of the United States, which is a privately owned Rothschild bank. There are several cases against people who have researched and discovered the truth about the 16^th Amendment and have had charges brought against them for failure to file income taxes. Some have been convicted and some have been acquitted. It all depends on the knowledge of the jurors. The judges and prosecutors allow the fraud to continue. They are part of the evil system.

The 17^th Amendment was proposed on May 13, 1912, and was ratified on April 8^th, 1913, just 12 months after its proposal. There is doubt that the 17^th Amendment was lawfully ratified. How is it that the 17^th Amendment was ratified just twelve months after its proposal, and the 16^th Amendment was ratified on February 3, 1913, 3 years and 7 months after its proposal? How is that possible? Why did it take 3 years and 7 months to ratify the 16^th Amendment? Some states did not even vote on it, and 33 states altered the amendment’s wording, a power that states do not possess. If defects of spelling, capitalization, and punctuation are ignored, only two states successfully ratified. Was it because it was unconstitutional?

Yes, the U.S. Constitution required that direct taxes be apportioned among the states based on population, making it impossible to implement a nationwide income tax. In 1895, the Supreme Court case Pollock v. Farmers’ Loan & Trust Co. struck down a federal income tax law, ruling that it was a direct tax and, therefore, unconstitutional because it was not apportioned among the states. This decision effectively blocked the federal government from taxing individual incomes.

What does “apportioned among the states” mean? The phrase “direct taxes be apportioned among the states” refers to a rule in the U.S. Constitution that requires certain taxes to be distributed among the states based on their population. This means that if the federal government imposes a direct tax, such as a tax on property or a head tax, it must collect a proportional amount from each state relative to its population size.

For example, if a direct tax of $20 million were levied, a state with 10% of the U.S. population would be responsible for paying 10% of that tax. This system was designed to ensure fairness among states,

What did the 16^th Amendment do for our country? First, there is ample evidence that the 16^th Amendment was illegally ratified. In 1913, ratification required 36 of the 48 states to make ratification possible. After all the evidence that was gathered, it was found that only 20 states may have ratified the Amendment legally. Most states ratified the Amendment illegally because they broke the law of their own State Constitutions. But just like Obamacare, Homeland Security, and many other illegal laws that have been passed by Congress, on February 3, 1913, Secretary of State Philander Knox declared it ratified by committing treason. Thus, granting Congress the power to impose a federal income tax, which was unconstitutional, commissioning the Internal Revenue Service to be set up, and significantly altering the U.S. tax system, committing the American citizens to slavery! Until this Amendment was enforced, the United States of America was the world’s most powerful and wealthiest nation, all financed by Tariffs and import taxes, which accounted for approximately 90% of our country’s finances. Excise Taxes were imposed on alcohol, tobacco, refined sugar, and whiskey. Land sales were another form of income for the country. These Tariffs and Excise taxes powered the most powerful nation the world has ever seen.

So, how has the income tax worked out? It was imposed to create slush funds of taxpayers’ money, like USAID, so Congress could enrich themselves and enslave the population of the greatest nation in world history, as we now see with the discoveries of DOGE. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is uncovering tons of corruption in our government, billions and billions of dollars stolen from the American taxpayers, and DOGE will show that the money is going directly into the pockets of members of Congress and unelected bureaucrats who were supposed to protect the rights of the people and uphold the Constitution of the United States of America..

Now the leftovers from the previous administration are screaming foul! John Larson, a Democrat from Connecticut, throws Social Security cuts out there to scare all those who draw on what they paid into Social Security. However, Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency are taking the ALREADY DEAD and all the over-100-year-olds and verifying them before removing them from the Social Security rolls. These non-existent recipients of social security are like a corrupt sponge siphoning billions of dollars into our elected officials’ and unelected bureaucrats’ pockets. DOGE has found 150-year-olds on the Social Security Rolls! What pocket has that money gone into? Here are a few of the headlines.

Opponents of DOGE have used Molotav cocktails to firebomb Tesla facilities in Las Vegas and Colorado!

Demonstrators hold anti-Tesla posters during a protest encouraging people to boycott Tesla in opposition to Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s political involvement in the U.S. government.

Ranking Member Maxine Waters and Congressman Brad Sherman Warn of Dangerous Consequences If Musk’s DOGE Takes Over the SEC.

Ranking Member Maxine Waters, Representatives Sherman, Foster, Casten, and Vargas Demand Answers on Reported SEC Regional Office Shutdowns.

Committee Democrats will use every tool available to combat this hostile takeover.

Sen. Cory Booker, who took hold of the Senate floor Monday night and held onto it Tuesday as he railed against President Donald Trump’s Republican agenda, once found common ground with the president during his first term.

Why is there so much negative discourse right now in our government? They all complain about the same thing. DOGE. What DOGE is uncovering is the corruption that has destroyed the American Dream. Most Americans live from hand to mouth. We are taxed into oblivion! There is a tax on everything we do, buy, and eat, and if they pass a carbon tax, it will essentially be a tax on the air we breathe. If we do not pay the taxes demanded of us, we will lose our homes and the right to drive a vehicle, and that would end the right to work and many more liberties. What has happened to the United States of America? And where is the outcry?

Where is this all heading? Surveys show that 69% of adults identify themselves as Christian, and 29% identify as religiously unaffiliated. In the early 1990s, the percentage of people who claimed to be Christian was 90%! Most Americans still claim to be Christian, but it appears that it will not be that way for long. Just like what has happened in Europe, we are fast being overtaken by the Islamic regime. They have been crossing, one way, over our borders for many years and have taken over entire cities. Think Dearborn, Michigan, Minneapolis, New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, and Detroit, among others. They have even infiltrated our government on every level! And as Trump appoints Cabinet Members who are known by their voting record and association with organizations that we know are of the deep state, who want to destroy our nation. It will be impossible to drain the swamp. So, where are we heading?

What’s happening to this nation is not the work of our government gone rogue. It is the work of our God, whose voice we refused to obey. Our leaders in D.C. no longer have minds with wisdom. The constituents of these clueless leaders blindly follow them. They have no common sense. They stumble in broad daylight like a blind man. Did our God not warn us what would happen to us if we did not keep His commandments?

Some scriptures address this phenomenon. The book of Deuteronomy explains how the stranger dwelling among you shall rise very high above you, and you shall come down very low. (Deuteronomy 28:43) Has that ever happened before in history? Not until today. Does it make sense to flood our nation with people who do not want to assimilate? Our government in D.C. thinks that if they let these people in, they will vote to keep them in office, so they can keep the power and wealth they crave. But these people do not want to keep the idiots in D.C. in office; they want that office! Surprisingly, they are taking those offices.

We do not know the timing of God’s plan for us, but I think we can see the writing on the wall! We are far ahead of the UK in the number of mosques. It is reported that there are over 2100 mosques in Great Britain, including the East London Mosque and the Baitul Futuh Mosque, one of the largest in Western Europe. As of 2025, there are approximately 3,753 mosques in the United States. The number has grown significantly over the years, reflecting the increasing Muslim population in the country. Some states with the highest number of mosques include New York, California, and Texas. These people do not want to assimilate; they want to rise up high above and destroy you! Just two verses after verse 43, it says that all these curses shall come on you, and shall pursue you and overtake you, until you are destroyed because you did not obey the voice of the LORD your God to keep His commandments and His statutes which He commanded you. (Deuteronomy 28:45)

God has extended Grace to us repeatedly, yet we still refuse to obey His voice. God said in Genesis 12:2-3 that He would bless the descendants of Abraham and make them a great nation, bless us, and make our name great. He will bless those who bless us and curse those who curse us, and we of all the families of the earth will be blessed. But what is the key to those blessings? Deuteronomy 28:1 And it shall come to pass, if you shall hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD your God to observe and to do all His commandments which I command you today, the LORD your God will set you on high above all nations of the earth. This promise has never been received because we have never hearkened diligently unto the voice of the LORD our God to observe and do all His commandments which He commanded. We, as a people, have always thrown God’s grace away!

After Deuteronomy 28:45, the curses get worse. You should read the entire chapter of Deuteronomy 28 to see what God said He would do for us if we keep His Law and what would happen if we refused to keep His Law. It’s startling! But how will the people know what will happen to them and that they need to repent of breaking God’s Law if no one is telling them? Today’s churches are entirely useless. None of them has the truth of God. They are smooth talkers, telling people what they want to hear. God warns us that there shall come a time when the people will not tolerate sound doctrine, but according to their own lusts they shall accumulate to themselves a great number of teachers, having ears itching to hear what satisfies their cravings, and they shall turn away their own ears from the truth and they shall be turned aside unto myths. (2 Timothy 4:3-4)

Our nation, the nation that God gave to us as promised to Manasseh, Joseph’s eldest son (Genesis 48), is being destroyed—not by foreign armies but by God because we refused to obey His voice. God gave us the strength to build this nation, so He has every right to take it away. We knew to obey Him, and we refused. Now we have lost the knowledge of the Truth! You need to get your head in the Bible and away from the boob tube and learn about the God of the Universe, the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, who God renamed Israel, and gave to Ephriam and Manasseh, the sons of Joseph, the nations of Great Britain and The United States of America, the greatest and most powerful nations the world has ever witnessed. But we refuse!

So, what does our future hold? All you need to do is read Deuteronomy 28:15-68 to find out. It will not be a pleasant read! It is taking place as you read this article. Bible scholars believe that Deuteronomy 28 describes the House of Israel, who were taken into captivity in 722 B.C., and the House of Judah when they were taken into captivity in 586 B.C.. Deuteronomy 28 is speaking to all Israelites wherever they may be found in the world today! The Israelites were commanded to keep God’s Law at Mt. Sinai. That has never changed, for God said in Deuteronomy 7:9 Therefore, know that the LORD your God, He is God, the faithful God Who keeps covenant and mercy with them that love Him and keep His commandments, to a thousand generations. 1 Chronicles 16:15 says, Be always mindful of His covenant, the word He commanded to a thousand generations. Psalms 105:8 says, He has remembered His covenant forever, the word which He commanded to a thousand generations. Say a generation is from 20 to 30 years. That would mean the Israelites were to keep God’s Law for 20 to 30 thousand years! How many years has it been since Jesus Christ, the LORD God of Israel, came down to Mt. Sinai and gave the children of Israel the Ten Commandments? It has been approximately 3,471 years. God commanded that His Laws be kept always and forever!

The people of the United States of America are the descendants of the children of Israel. The descendants of Manasseh, the son of Joseph, founded this nation. The people of Great Britain are the descendants of Ephriam, the son of Joseph, who founded that nation. Those two nations are easy to identify using Genesis 48. The other tribes of the children of Israel are scattered all over the European continent. They are also commanded to keep God’s Law. It is easy to see that none of the children of Israel are keeping God’s Law today. What is happening in Europe today? The Muslims are overrunning them; the Europeans have lost their nations.

Hebrews 13:8 states, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” This reflects a foundational belief in God’s unchanging nature. His character, promises, and truth remain constant throughout time. Malachi 3:6 states, “For I am the LORD, I do not change.” He tells us in Numbers 23:19, “God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent.” This divine consistency is reassuring. It means God’s covenants, justice, mercy, and love endure forever. It also means that His warnings in Deuteronomy 28 remain relevant, and His plans for the Israelites and the world are still unfolding.

Is Liberalism Dead (In All Forms)? – Part 5

By Steven Yates

April 25, 2025

Has technofeudalism killed liberalism as well as capitalism?

Parts 1, 2, 3, 4.

[Author’s disclaimer: the opinions and conclusions expressed in this article are solely those of its author, and should not be attributed to NewsWithViews.com, its editorial staff, or any other NewsWithViews.com writer.]

“ … [R]eal power today resides not with the owners of traditional capital, such as machinery, buildings, railway and phone networks, industrial robots. They continue to extract profits from workers, from waged labour, but they are not in charge as they once were. As we shall see, they have become vassals in relation to a new class of feudal overlord, the owners of cloud capital. As for the rest of us, we have returned to our former status as serfs, contributing to the wealth and power of the new ruling class with our unpaid labour — in addition to the waged labour we perform, when we get the chance.” —Yanis Varoufakis, Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism (2023).

Technofeudalism Rising….

The term technofeudalism is circulating. What does it refer to, and has Western capitalism evolved into it as Yanis Varoufakis thinks? And does this further the case that liberalism in all forms is dead?

Varoufakis is an economist and was Finance Minister for Greece’s Syriza Party briefly in 2014. During that tenure he confronted the overlords of the EU Central Bank and IMF who had imposed crushing austerity measures on his country.

He’s a man of the left. Why do I cite him? Because (1) he’s put his finger on something of importance in assessing what’s really going on; and (2) it isn’t my fault that conservatives either haven’t noticed it or don’t care.

He calls himself an “erratic Marxist.” His reasoning about Marxism isn’t clear to me. Marx, as we saw earlier, believed socialism was capitalism’s natural successor: iron laws of dialectic assured this. Varoufakis clearly believes no such thing.

What he believes is that capitalism’s actual successor is making capitalism look Utopian by comparison.

What was feudalism?

To understand technofeudalism, we have to look at feudalism. What was it?

It was the kind of economy that prevailed prior to the industrial revolution. If you go back enough centuries, huge tracts of arable land were owned by no one. They were settled and homesteaded. When feudalism came (12^th century or thereabouts), its lords turned land into enclosures. Former homesteaders became serfs if they remained on land now owned by someone much more powerful than them.

As feudalism took hold, one was born landed gentry, i.e., in a landowning family, or a serf who tilled the land. Land was inherited, not earned, bought, or sold. It was not a commodity, with a market-based price. It would never have occurred to a landowner to sell his land for a price. There was no social mobility. A serf had no means of “climbing the ladder” and becoming a landowner.

Serfs paid landed gentry with a portion of their produce in order to work land they didn’t own. In addition came protection from the occasional war that came along. This system was relatively stable, though, for several hundred years.

After feudalism….

According to one interpretation of the industrial revolution, a few wealthy landowners built factories using new technologies. They kicked serfs off land their families had worked for generations, then “invited” them back to work in the factories for a wage. Former serfs, now industrial workers, rented places to live instead of ceding a portion of produce. Former landowners, now factory-owners, began to accumulate capital.

Thus, capitalism happened.

The new system had more social mobility. Anyone with know-how could become a capitalist, i.e. a business owner engaged in producing and then trading goods or services and accumulating capital, growing personal wealth, investing in new technology, or expanding into new territory.

This is a familiar story, so I need not elaborate, except to note that it gave rise to levels of productivity, general prosperity, and societal optimism never before seen. Becoming bourgeois was the goal of many a proletariat, and many did — to the lasting chagrin of those who became cultural Marxists, as we saw.

What we’ve been calling the liberal order — personal liberty, democracy, rule of law, etc. — came out of this milieu. The attention focused on the affairs of this world, not some world to come, created an economic and cultural environment in which secularism was more and more at home. Barely noticed outside the worlds of art and authorship was how secularization was setting us morally adrift. File this under our transition from a Second Stage to a Third Stage of civilization.

What’s happened to capitalism?

After capitalism?

Socialism? Nonsense!

Zbigniew Brzezinski, in Between Two Ages: America’s Role in the Technetronic Era (1970), envisioned his own three “stages”: (1) nationalism, which he believed invariably led to war; (2) Marxism, which undercut nationalism but gave rise to its own brand of totalitarianism; (3) globalism, which transforms the world into a single, borderless marketplace under a single global regulatory authority behind a rules-based order: the culmination of liberalism, permanently ending the danger of high-level war.

This mindset gave rise to the Trilateral Commission and its New International Economic Order.

Soon came the Internet — already being developed in the bowels of DARPA and about to emerge as a kind of digital commons, an Internet 1.0 if you will — like prefeudal era unowned land.

Incipient Big Tech corporations saw the Internet’s moneymaking potential and crafted Internet 2.0, we might call it. Soon, enclosures appeared in digital space.

Enter Varoufakis’s observations. In this space, we operate on platforms we don’t own but have created accounts. Some of us start small businesses (e.g., on eBay, or Amazon), or try to monetize video content (on, e.g., YouTube owned by Google). Baked into our accounts are agreements to pay the platform a percentage of whatever we make: a percentage decided by its owners, not us.

A variant on this theme is the independent contractor, e.g., the Uber or Lyft driver, using one of those platforms, paid by the “gig” while the corporation extracts its percentage.

A third possibility is the subscription model … which Microsoft embraced last decade and is the reason you don’t own your Office software anymore. You don’t buy a package in a computer store as you did back in the ‘90s. You rent it instead, paying Microsoft an annual fee to use their software. Bill Gates doubtless figured out that the corporation made more money from this model than if they sold copies you could install from floppy disks.

Which, you may have noticed, have also disappeared.

Finally, there’s the membership model. LinkedIn would be an example. You can set up a free account, but as I discovered from using the platform a few years back, if you don’t obtain a paid account (back then it was around $50/mo. — which adds up!) you’re limited in what you can do on the site.

This exemplifies the infamous nudge. Platforms can’t force users to do anything. But they can ratchet up inconveniences resulting from not doing what the owners want … under the idea that when pain of noncompliance gets high enough, you’ll comply.

Varoufakis argues that this is not capitalism but technofeudalism.

We’ve seen a gradual structural move back to a fundamentally feudal system in which Big Tech overlords, owners of cloud capital, have replaced landed gentry. And if we till the soil of its platforms for a fee, we’re cloud serfs. The people who work for low pay in, e.g., an Amazon distribution center, monitored every minute? Cloud proles.

Technofeudalism and mind control.

Under capitalism, ideally at least, consumers choose, however much corporations use nudges to incentivize desirable forms of mass consumer behavior. Arguably, technofeudalism reduces choice.

Traditional capital manufactured goods, like the corporation Henry Ford built manufacturing cars. Cloud capital — digital space — does not do anything beyond producing how-to videos and undertaking platform maintenance. Instead, it modifies human behavior in ways that leave previous corporate nudges in the dust.

The key is understanding its algorithms, which are now AI-empowered.

Our choices on a platform such as Amazon “train” the algorithms to show us “what we want.” The platform then tries to sell it to us directly, bypassing traditional markets.

We sustain the platform “voluntarily” with our free labor: content creation (articles, rants, reviews, ratings, videos, photos, etc.).

Varoufakis outlines five steps toward technofeudal mind control by cloud capital:

(1) The system captures our attention. It is sometimes said, we now live in an attention economy. In setting up an account and making choices, we tell cloud capital’s algorithms our preferences.

(2) These manufacture desires … which we’ve “told” the algorithms to show us, which we otherwise wouldn’t have seen, and which will maximize the probability of matches that will generate the highest rent the digital landed gentry can extract through cloud rent: the fee extracted. Cloud capital owns the algorithm, of course. Because of how the algorithm operates on us individually, if you search for, let’s say, binoculars, on Amazon or eBay, you could see something quite different from what I’d see if I did the same search. This is very unlike the two of us walking through a physical store in which obviously we’d see the same things.

(3) The platform then sells to us directly, outside traditional markets, what will satiate the desires it has manufactured in us.

(4) It drives cheap labor in what remains of physical work spaces: cloud proles.

(5) It elicits free labor from us, the “creator class” who provide all the content: cloud serfs.

Varoufakis calls the owners of cloud capital not capitalists but cloudalists who have become billionaires from this system.

Is this a control grid? What do you think?!

Another way of explaining our interactions with algorithms on Big Tech platforms is that they’ve set up a feedback loop. You tell the algorithm what you like and it feeds you content based on what you’ve told it. It then trains you to like what it offers without your being fully aware of it. If you buy, you give it more information and it makes more offers. And so on.

The more you engage with these platforms, the more mind-controlled and behavior-modified you are.

Technofeudalism and social control.

This may all seem super-convenient: but I can make money using cloud capital sitting in my pajamas in my bedroom! you might be thinking.

The marketing scheme: work for yourself! Be your own boss! Set your own hours! Make as much money as you can! Do the work, and the sky’s the limit!

I’ve seen dozens of such hustles, created by hustlers with how-to-do-it courses they are selling or building online communities around (charging monthly fees):

You, too, can make a million dollars a year writing! Learn how I did it! Just $490!

Very little of this sort of thing works. Otherwise there’d be far fewer writers who don’t dare give up their day jobs! There may be good money in designing such courses, though, for those who couldn’t care less about ethics!

There are people earning substantial livings on Big Tech platforms such as YouTube. They pay rent to be there and earn what they can. With millions of people paying cloud rent, the platform owners — the technofeudal landed gentry — get insanely rich!

But there are serious downsides!

Algorithms are utterly impersonal forces designed to benefit the owner, not the user. It’s totally automated and can be programmed to scan for specific words, phrases, what-have-you.

Said something it deems racist? Antisemitic? Otherwise politically incorrect?

Do it once, you might get a digital warning. Do it again? Account suspended! You’re gone!

If there’s an appeal process, it’s Kafkaesque!

Since you’re an independent contractor, not an employee, labor laws are irrelevant; if the algorithm “wants” you gone, you’re gone.

I know of numerous people who have been in “Facebook jail,” they call it, or had accounts deleted from YouTube or elsewhere.

If you’re banned from a platform and it dominates that digital marketing space, your means of earning a living has been destroyed.

I don’t know about you, gentle reader, but I don’t trust a power like that! Not when I don’t have any defenses against it!

The digital world is expanding, moreover, with the Internet-of-things. AI-driven algorithms are everywhere and threatening to invade our use of household appliances which we may also be forced to rent in the dystopia to come when we own nothing, have no privacy, but are happy with all the conveniences — while our “carbon footprint” is being measured and if we overuse anything, eat the wrong things, etc., we may be sent a digital warning if we’re lucky and cut off if we’re not.

Can’t you just refuse to use these platforms?

That’s not realistic. They are as ubiquitous as electricity. How much can you accomplish today without them? The plain truth is, if you’re in business and not online, which means interacting with Google, Microsoft, etc. — Amazon, if you’re a writer — you don’t exist. Or might as well not exist, since you’re invisible.

Don’t like the existing platforms? Set up your own!

That’s just stupid! You don’t have the resources, anything close to what you’d need to compete effectively with Google, or Amazon, or Microsoft, or LinkedIn. You would spend a lifetime accumulating them or take out loans that would indebt you to someone affiliated with the power system and you’d be cut off if you challenged that system.

Efforts to compete with Microsoft have been very limited. Few people know what Linux is or are motivated to obtain it. For while nearly everything is programmed to run on Windows, a lot of things won’t run on Linux.

And to my knowledge the only online bookstore of any size that has survived the Amazon era is Barnes & Noble. (There are a few highly specialized small bookstores with private clienteles, but if you weren’t a known quantity to that clientele, I wouldn’t bank on that.)

So like original feudalism, there’s little mobility under technofeudalism, which also draws from neoliberal self-help pseudo-psychology telling you that your place in the system has resulted entirely from your own choices. To this mindset, structural limitations imposed by a system simply aren’t real.

Technofeudalism is not a “conspiracy” prediction. Technofeudalism is now!

Even most job applications are submitted online after creating an account. No one I know of sends manuscripts through “snail mail” anymore (terms like that one should make us think about how cloud capital has changed our vocabulary).

So what’s the problem?

Again, though, I hear objections. Don’t you have conveniences, especially communications, that once, long ago, weren’t dreamt of outside science fiction? Such as being able to use an app like Zoom to communicate in real time to people on different continents?

Just recently I accessed an airline website to check on flight information and prices. Next thing I knew, “my” browser was showing me ads for flights — to the destination I’d chosen, and with accompanying discounts!

That these platforms “know” what we’re using them to do, and at that level of detail, is disconcerting — or should be. But this is how Big Tech manipulates us. There is no outcry, no Smash Technofeudalism movements on the left like there are Smash Capitalism ones. This suggests that most people don’t mind being manipulated if they’re fed convenience. They don’t mind that the more they use a platform, the more dependent on it they become!

It’s easy to see what an abundance of research now indicates, which is that cyberspace communications which are often anonymous amplify the most extreme voices in any political discussion. We’re siloed into echo chambers. This explains the societal divisions we now see, as well as some of the irrational beliefs floating around out there (there are flat-earther channels on YouTube): believers form online communities of the likeminded whose premises are never challenged, because the algorithm—giving them what they’d told it they like—never sends them anything that challenges their beliefs. If you join such a community hoping to present a “fresh” perspective, you’ll get ridiculed or meet with so hostile a reaction that you leave the group voluntarily or are kicked out if you persist.

Escaping technofeudalism?

Varoufakis’s suggested “solution” for all this is weak. It’s his book’s major drawback.

To go back to owning our choices and our minds individually, he says, we have to own cloud capital collectively. Creating a cloud capital commons akin to what Internet 1.0 was.

A kind of techno-socialism, in other words.

Given the money and power of tech oligarchs like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and all the rest, I wouldn’t hold my breath. These folks haven’t surrounded Trump for no reason at all. Nor did Musk buy Twitter on a whim. As a technocrat he understands the power involved in owning a platform like that and turning it into an online slugfest.

What most Trump-supporting conservatives don’t get is that government is not in the driver seat! If it ever was.

Nor do libertarians and voluntaryists.

Do I need to point out that none of this is liberal in any sense of that term I’ve discussed? Does this show that liberalism really is dead, therefore — in all forms — and that technofeudalism, run by technocrats and overlords of cloud capital (they’re one and the same) have pounded the final nails into its coffin?

Has technofeudalism killed liberalism? A plan.

I have no immediate resolution to this. I have no magic wands, incantations, elixirs. I can only recommend adjustments you can make in your personal life and tell others about. Movements do get started that way.

Freedom didn’t come about overnight, wasn’t diminished and mostly destroyed overnight, and won’t be recovered overnight. If it’s recovered at all.

Here’s a sketch of a plan for dealing with technofeudalism and its algorithmic control grid.

First, recognize the possibility that a lot of your choices made online — where to go, what to buy, what to say — are probably no longer your own. Recognizing that you have been manipulated is the first step towards escaping manipulation.

Second, realize that politics is not a solution, not in our present environment, because cloud capital has the political class bought and paid for: look at the relationship between Trump and Musk. Peter Thiel (another Silicon Valley technocrat) has schooled J.D. Vance.

Third, decide to focus on what you can control, in accordance with the wise counsel of Stoic philosophers such as Epictetus and Marcus Aurelius whom I’ve discussed previously. You may not be able to get off these platforms, but can control what you use them to do. This may mean making some uncomfortable lifestyle changes, perhaps becoming more of a minimalist. Reading a book instead of watching a video (e.g.). The structure of technofeudalism is such that it depends on your participation in it. The less you need its platforms, the less it owns and controls you.

Fourth, recognize the role of the materialist worldview in underwriting the kind of political- economic culture in which technofeudalism is at home: furthering Gekkoism (“greed is good”), and seeing people as objects, useful if their information can be monetized. In contrast:

Fifth, see persons as created in God’s image and therefore having intrinsic value. Treat them as such, even the “lowliest” of us. Even Kant, a secular philosopher, formulated as a moral principle the idea that we should treat all persons as ends in themselves and never exclusively as a means to our own ends.

On a larger scale, sixth — and this brings us full circle — realize that the only viable form of liberalism we’ve seen is on the order of Bastiat’s in The Law. Modified for today to accommodate changes Bastiat couldn’t have foreseen. This outlook, which infuses a Christian worldview into political economy, could underwrite political liberty, economic freedom, the rule of law, limited government, and subsidiarity (this is the idea that social problems should be solved at the most local level possible, moving to the regional and then to the national only if they are intractable at the local level). Incorporate into this the Stoic outlook which reminds us that we control not external events, or what those in power do, but the contents of our minds and the direction of our actions.

I’m not saying we should return to this. In this day and age, we probably need to discover it. These principles we should hold onto, develop further, and communicate to anyone willing to listen.

America at the Tipping Point

By: Amil Imani

April 24, 2025

Yet, too few people are discussing it or talking about it. Why? Many Americans have been conditioned to be tolerant and compassionate, to embrace multiculturalism, and to respect each other’s beliefs, ideals, and values. That’s wonderful in a utopian world, but the fact is, Islam doesn’t embrace any aspect of Western civilization—much less American culture. We said on 9/11 that we’d “never forget,” but guess what? Many of us have. America is slowly and methodically being dismantled as a nation by Islamic subversion, and our cherished freedoms are more fragile than ever. While we know how to fight the enemy abroad with combat troops, intelligence, and drone strikes, we’re doing nothing to combat the very same enemy that resides on our soil in broad daylight.

Let me be clear: if we don’t defeat Islam politically and quickly here, without a doubt, our children and grandchildren will be engaged in a religious and ideological bloody war, the likes of which have never been seen on American soil before. Just the other day, one day after the 9/11 anniversary, another Muslim, Zulfat Suara, “became first elected to Nashville office, winning at-large Metro Council seat,” and we all have already witnessed the two junior Muslim Congresswomen, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib’s public discourse in the US Congress. Wait, there are a lot more Muslims who plan to run in the 2020 elections and beyond.

And because a Muslim must follow Islamic laws and not man-made laws like the US Constitution, a Muslim can never be both a Muslim and an American at the same time. It is impossible. That’s where the clash begins, and no elected official in this country is willing to or wants to take the bull by the horns and discuss it. What a shame!

Do all Muslims adhere to the commands of the Quran? No, thank God. However, as they integrate into their communities and increase in numbers, they tend to become more militant and less tolerant of the laws and regulations of those communities. Any religion whose holy book instructs its followers to commit acts that contradict the rules of this country should not only lose its tax-exempt status but also forfeit its First Amendment protection and be banned from the United States altogether.

In countries such as France, Britain, and several North African countries, where Islamic enclaves and ghettos have emerged, local mullahs enforce Sharia law despite its conflict with national or state laws. What many Americans fail to understand is that Sharia law forms the foundation of Islamic theocracy and totalitarianism. The establishment of global Sharia law serves as their ultimate goal. The Quran is clear in its directive to Muslims to create a global Islamic state (Caliphate), over which the Islamic messiah, or Mahdi, will rule with Sharia as the sole law of the land. There is no mistake: this is the intent of influential Islamic elements in America.

The problem is too few Americans are aware of it, and organizations like the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR are taking full advantage of American’s naiveté. On top of that, a consortium composed of pandering liberal politicians, blinded by short-term self-interest and egotism, attention and fund-seeking self-proclaimed prima donna professors, and bastions of useful idiots, are the witting or unwitting promoters of Islamism.

Understand that Sharia is very complex and derived from multiple Islamic sources. The Quran, considered the “uncreated word of Allah,” is the primary source of Sharia law. The Hadith (sayings and actions of Muhammad) is the second most crucial document in Sharia. Historic rulings by jurists over the years and so-called reasoning by analogy make up the other two less influential sources of Sharia. Together, they constitute Islam’s theological core, and they result in a totalitarian way of life for Muslim followers and non-Muslims.

Honor killings, marital rape, female genital mutilation, severing of hands and feet are but a few of the other components of Sharia law. When Muslim men are directed to beat their wives for rejecting sexual advances, it’s evident that American values are in direct conflict with what Islamic law requires of its followers. So, how do we reconcile this? We can’t!

In short, we need to open our eyes and see how the scheme played out in Europe. Much of Europe is already past the stage of no return. This is not a game. This is real. This ideology will devour your entire family, both Republicans and Democrats, if not now, soon enough. Americans need to wake up now and stop Islam from growing to the point of no return.

Unleash Mass Deportation: Due Process for Citizens, Not Illegal Aliens

By Frosty Wooldridge

April 24, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

Dear President (Your senator and House member),

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Sincerely,

Your Name

Dear fellow American citizen,

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

JFK File Released 62 Years Late – If This Does Not Define Cover-Up, What Does?

By Bradlee Dean

April 23, 2025

“Conspiracy theories? Who told you that? All my conspiracy theories have come true, so please, send me new ones, just like the one I’m about ready to reveal to you.”

Let me ask you a question: Who shot President James Garfield? Most people do not know. Why? Because it was not a cover-up.

On July 2, 1881, James A. Garfield, the 20th president of the United States, was shot at the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Station in Washington, D.C., resulting in his death in Elberon, New Jersey, two and a half months later on September 19, 1881.
Let me ask another question: Who shot President McKinley? Again, most do not know. Why? Because it was not a cover-up.

By the way, I am not saying that these were not conspiracies (Jeremiah 11:9). I am merely pointing out that the people during this time knew who the shooters were because they were eyewitnesses to the assassinations.

Now, getting to the point that I would like to make, who shot John F. Kennedy? The world was, and is, being told it was the lone wolf, Lee Harvey Oswald. Lee was not innocent in this matter to a certain degree, but he was not the shooter.

There was no reason that a conspiratorial group or agency (Warren Commission – The Fox in the chicken coop, Central Intelligence Agency, Federal Bureau of Investigation, etc.) had to scurry like a bunch of insidious murderers behind the use of a patsy (Lee Harvey Oswald). This was all (and still is) being done with the use of the media propaganda machine today in reminding the people of who they have declared the guilty to be. All of this, mind you, is in complete disregard and contradiction of the over 200 eyewitnesses who saw the events unfold.
In other words, all eyes are on the patsy that they had pinned.

Keep in mind that 81% of the American people did not believe the official narrative being sold to them by mainstream media outlets. Also, keep in mind, if you have not seen “The Two Kennedys” documentary, THE STORY TELEVISION WOULD NOT TELL, do yourself a favor and watch it. You will discover that over 400 people (eyewitnesses) died after the assassination.

Madam Duncan Browne, President Johnson’s Mistress, confessed that Johnson knew beforehand that Kennedy was going to be assassinated.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. the CIA killed my father uncle do not trust the medical or the national security establishment

I am not going to labor the point here outside of the obvious concerning this government cover-up because there is plenty of information out there.

Everyone knows, despite all the documentaries that have been produced proving the guilt of those who are still doing their best to cover up the assassination), the guilty are continually driving their propaganda narrative in trying to sell to the people their lies as to what it is the people are not buying (Micah 6:16).

https://sonsoflibertymedia.com/eyewitnesses-accounts-contradict-medias-las-vegas-narrative/

Conclusion: It does not get any plainer than the nose on your face when it comes to the fact that for over 62 years, your government, let me say that again, YOUR GOVERNMENT has been covering for the conspirators, themselves and those whom they have covenanted with, (Isaiah 28:18) who are guilty of murdering their president! Innocent people do not conceal the truth, they reveal it (Luke 12:22).

How and Why “Free Trade” Came to America

By Cliff Kincaid

April 23, 2025

Did you know that Republicans now claiming to back President Trump on tariffs made “free trade” possible? Did you know that “free trade” is a Marxist concept designed to exacerbate class warfare?

It is time to understand how we got into this predicament.

Having been around Washington, D.C. for almost 50 years, I know something about the movement of real conservatives that made President Trump’s “trade wars” possible. William J. Gill, author of the book Trade Wars Against America, ran the organization, the American Coalition for Competitive Trade (ACCT), which filed suit against NAFTA , the North American Free Trade Agreement, and had planned other legal actions against the GATT/World Trade Organization and trade with China.

Then, however, the courts ruled in favor of global free trade.

William J. Gill had it right — the real trade wars were being waged against America. Unfortunately, his legal case, which argued that NAFTA violated the Constitution of the United States, was dismissed. The governments of Canada and Mexico intervened on behalf of President Bill Clinton, who passed NAFTA and its implementation act with the assistance of Republican Newt Gingrich in the House of Representatives.

ACCT argued that NAFTA was unconstitutional because it gave away judicial power to decide disputes over trade policies to international bodies.

Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives from 1995-1999, Gingrich reversed his support for “free trade” and now appears regularly on Fox News to support Trump’s tariffs.

In 1993, as he pressed for passage of NAFTA, Clinton said, “I believe that Newt Gingrich believes in NAFTA just like I do. And I believe he wants it to pass. And do I trust him to do everything he can to deliver every vote he can? You bet I do.”

Back in 1997, ACCT had warned of the big increase in illegal immigration, “now amounting to the greatest invasion any nation has been subjected to in all history,” that followed NAFTA taking effect in January 1994. ACCT warned that the increase in illegal immigration was “inextricably intertwined with the importation of drugs and crime from Mexico under NAFTA.” It cited a “sharp surge in drug abuse among young people being driven by the collapse in Customs enforcement at the Mexican border.”

As I argued in my 1995 book, Global Bondage, a major problem with free trade is that it provides perfect cover for drug trafficking and drug-money laundering. NAFTA, a pact to spur business activity by lowering trade barriers and reduce border inspections between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, facilitated illegal immigration and drug trafficking into the United States from Mexico.

By any objective measure, so-called “free trade” facilitated the destruction of American sovereignty, leading to more Americans dying from dangerous drugs being smuggled into the United States by Mexico and now China. This is a big reason why President Trump has cited a national emergency to justify tariffs on foreign nations like China, Canada, and Mexico.

In a newsletter about the passing away of one of ACCT’s strongest supporters, anti-communist researcher Robert J. Morris, Gill noted that “He understood that Karl Marx backed free trade because it would destroy the sovereignty of nations — the goal of Communism and of the insane elitists who are driving us towards world government.”

Marx supported free trade, calling it “destructive” but positive because it “hastens social revolution” through destroying the proletariat, the workers. He thought this would cause them to embrace communist revolution. He called free trade a “revolutionary” force in human history that would propel capitalist nations into socialism and then communism.

But the workers would not only lose their jobs; they would lose their lives. In the United States, however, they embraced Trump, not communist revolution.

The ACCT advisory board members included several prominent anti-communists, such as Herbert A. Philbrick, a former FBI informant in the Communist Party; and Howard Phillips, chairman of the U.S. Taxpayers Alliance, which became the U.S. Constitution Party.

A member of ACCT’s board was William von Raab, former United States Commissioner of Customs, who spoke about “free trade” facilitating drug shipments from Mexico.

In our book, Permanent Revolution: The Secret Life and Legacy of Barack Hussein Obama, we analyzed the plan of the free trade globalists, led by George Soros, and its ultimate objective. The plan was to flood the United States with illegal drugs and then “solve” the problem by legalizing them, creating another class of citizens dependent on drugs provided by the state. It was a new version of Huxley’s Brave New World.

Important work exposing the plan was done by Joseph Douglass, Jr., whose book, Red Cocaine, documented a major Communist role in international drug trafficking. The purpose of the Communist campaign was not only to demoralize the West but raise hard currency and identify drug users who could be blackmailed for intelligence purposes.

Under a U.N.-sponsored plan to legalize drugs on a worldwide basis, as recommended by the George Soros-funded Global Commission on Drug Policy, drug trafficking countries and narco-states such as Mexico would become “respectable.” Notorious drug traffickers and their bankers would be transformed into legitimate businessmen.

HSBC, a British-based bank, allowed Mexican drug cartels and terrorist groups to launder dirty money through the U.S. financial system but the Obama Administration did not prosecute bank officials on criminal charges. The House Financial Services Committee released a staff report of its investigation into the U.S. Department of Justice’s decision not to prosecute HSBC. One of the findings was that:

“Senior DOJ leadership, including Attorney General [Eric] Holder, overruled an internal recommendation by DOJ’s Asset Forfeiture and Money Laundering Section to prosecute HSBC because of DOJ leadership’s concern that prosecuting the bank would have serious adverse consequences on the financial system.”

In the scheme known as Fast and Furious, the administration authorized a gun-running operation that put deadly weapons in the hands of narcotics traffickers from Mexico. Those weapons were used to kill U.S. border agent Brian Terry.

The Obama Administration was also accused of obstructing justice in probes regarding alleged drug-trafficking and money-laundering schemes tied to the Hezbollah terror group.

In his second term, Trump has put pressure on Canada and Mexico to stop shipments of fentanyl to the United States. In fact, citing the “extraordinary threat posed by illegal aliens and drugs, including deadly fentanyl,” he declared a national emergency under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and imposed tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China.

Now, Sara Carter, an investigative reporter and Fox News contributor, has been nominated by Trump to run the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). With a background of work along the U.S. Mexico border that included many national security-related stories, she now has an opportunity to not only expose the involvement of governments like Mexico in the drug trade but the banks and financial operators based in the United States that are laundering the drug money.

Military Used For 80 Years as CORPORATE MERCINARIES, Never for National Security

By Andrew Wallace

April 22, 2025

This paper is based on the irrefutable fact that the United States because of our oceans cannot be invaded by foreign powers, we can only be defeated by nuclear war or from within (some call this the Fortress America Doctrine).

For at least the last 80 years we have ignored the advice of our founders and involved our military and government in the affairs of other nations that was none of our legitimate concern.

All conflicts were for profits, bribes and kickbacks and never for national security.

For the last 80 years we have been continuously involved in unlawful armed conflicts without a Declaration of War. Blood thirsty and greedy Congress therefore killed 105,000 of our military, millions of innocents and destroyed entire countries for corporate greed, bribes and kickbacks.

Our government and corporate media promoted these conflicts as being required for national defense which was a damn unmitigated lie (propaganda).

Our military was simply used as expendable mercenaries for corporate profits. We the people got dead and broken bodies, hatred of entire world, a reduced standard of living and a mostly criminal enterprise for a government (majority of Establishment has no Constitutional support)

The wars in Ukraine and Israel did not officially use American troops, but we heavily funded both wars. Putin invaded Ukraine BUT WE STARTED. IT. Many believe that our involvement in the Middle East is in support of Israel because it is said that our government and media are controlled by Israeli lobby. If the American people were allowed to know both sides of the story they would bring all of our troops home and forbid use of our military or money (foreign aid) except to combat pirates and protect the homeland with our military on US soil.

I think there is a high probability that military will be required to deport Democrat army of illegal invaders (21 million).

There are various names (Establishment, Deep State etc) for the criminals that control our government and our lives. But I descriptively name them as the Parasitic Super Rich Ruling Class (PSRRC) which consists of the super wealthy who control corporations that in turn direct and bribe Congress.

I refer to the Federal Establishment, not government, because it does not have the legitimate powers of a government. The states are Sovereign governments.

The PSRRC uses every trick in the book such as Tax Free Foundations and Privately Owned Federal Reserve Bank to give them control for eternity. Contrary to the opinion of many they are not all Jews

People in the United States are suffering, infrastructure is crumbling, American Dream is dead, people are living in the streets and illegal invaders (subsidized by governments) in the millions kill and maim our people. WHILE GOVERNMENT SPENDS AN ESTIMATED 15% OF EXPENDITURES ON UNCONSTITUTIONAL FOREIGN AID AND TROOPS ON FOREIN SOIL WITHOUT A DECLARATION OF WAR.

The only reason for this unlawful and treasonous behavior by the PSRRC and a willing congress is for money and power regardless of the resulting death and destruction

OUR MILITARY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED .TO LEAVE THE UNITED STATES WITHOUT A DECLARATION OF WAR AND BECAUSE NO OTHER COUNTRY CAN INVADE US.

The overall solution is simple. All unlawful (unconstitutional) departments and functions of federal establishment must be terminated. Tariffs alone (as in the past) can then fund federal establishment with income tax terminated.

States can then fund their governments without control from DC. Since unlawful activities were never legal President Trump should be able to terminate them with a pen since they don’t exist legally.

I must reiterate that it is impossible to have a Constitutional Republic funded with Income Taxes or with Tariffs if Federal Establishment funds more than allowed by Enumerated Powers as is now the case.

I know not if President Trump sees the light, but I do know that he has the rare opportunity to save us. However, Trump’s actions with Israel are not in our best interest or in accordance with the Constitution. A significant part of the world detests Israel’s conduct and we are being painted with the same brush.

I will continue to write what I determine to be useful and lawful truth. If the FBI remains corrupt and comes after me, so be it. In the meantime please use my articles to inform your members of congress. Most members of congress will appreciate this information as much as the devil appreciates the Cross.

God Bless You and the Republic

Retaining Your Wealth in a Worrisome World

By Sidney Secular

April 22, 2025

When you hear the term, “investment”, you think of obtaining something for its anticipated rise in value in the future. There is another category of investment that may rise in value over time, but the principle purpose in purchasing it is not profit, but in acquiring valuable items that retain their value, so that when other investments fail, the investor will still have at least a portion of his wealth to fall back on.

When the tidings are for bad economic times, as they are now, the retention of wealth assumes far more significance. In almost every country now, personal wealth is threatened with increased taxation, devaluation of currencies, collapses in markets, and even confiscation of bank accounts and introduction of digital currencies, so the time to find the safest havens for your wealth is now.

At some point in the coming debacle, or “Great Unraveling”, we will reach the point when virtually the only “safe” investments will be precious metals and real estate. However, precious metals and real estate ownership will only be safe if they are located outside an endangered jurisdiction. It probably goes against your grain and what’s been ground into you to not own anything outside the US, but the gravest threat to your wealth has come and will continue to come from your own government. It is far more difficult for your “govmint” to destroy your wealth if you have “expropriated” it, since your government does not have free control of the laws and the government where you have deposited or acquired your items of wealth.

It would be hard for our government to grab your repatriated precious metals, but impossible for it to grab your overseas real estate. When you choose a candidate foreign country in which to place your precious metals and/or acquire real estate, you should choose a country that is not likely to be a candidate for a major decline in the coming economic collapse, is not likely to cave into the demands of a country(like the US) that is likely to itself collapse, and has laws that impose restrictions on foreign-owned investments.

The safest countries are those that do not tend to fall prey to dictatorships or dramatic changes in laws, in other words, those least likely to interfere with the ownership of your investment. Many governments around the world are now hopelessly in debt and on the verge of economic collapse. They will resort to desperate measures like grabbing their citizens’ wealth. It doesn’t matter if your wealth. is $5,000 or $500,000. If the former was in gold coins, you could be better off than if the latter was in paper money.

What countries should the investor consider? Several nations like Bahrain, Bermuda, Brunei, the Cayman Islands, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates(UAE) have no income taxes. There are 16 nations with no property tax — they include Bahrain, the Cayman Islands, Croatia, the Cook islands, Dominica, Fiji, Israel, Kuwait, Liechtenstein, Malta, Monaco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turks and Caicos, and the UAE. The investor may also consider which of the above countries may additionally provide his investments with increased value.

You may not savor the perceived unsavory reputation of some of the aforesaid countries, but they could be your savior, providing safe places to park your assets or acquire real estate.

Deport the Judicial Oligarchs

By Cliff Kincaid

April 21, 2025

With the Supreme Court ruling 7-2 against the Trump Administration on deportation of foreign terrorists and gang members on American soil, the so-called “Supreme Court,” with two exceptions, has been exposed as the long arm of the Deep State. Deport the Seven. These are the real oligarchs.

The only two justices ruling for the Constitution, the law, and the president’s power to protect America, were Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.

The decision handed down on Saturday was an order or “memo” to the president to keep those murderers and rapists on American soil. J.B. Williams of the North American Law Center explains the significance of this unconstitutional ruling on my Rumble channel, recorded on Saturday, April 19, the day the “order” from the Court was handed down. The ACLU brought the case quickly acted upon by the Court.

Even Trump’s nominees to the Court voted against him. And Justice Alito was not allowed to post his dissent along with the majority’s order. Instead, the Court said his “statement” would “follow” some time later.

The Court was acting like a judicial dictatorship or oligarchy.

Williams concludes only Thomas and Alito remain as constitutional conservatives on the Court.

Trump Administration lawyers, featured regularly on Fox News, got the president in this trap by insisting that the Supreme Court would rule in their favor.

Trump should now categorically reject the Court’s jurisdiction. He was acting based on the Alien Enemies Act, during a time of national emergency.

“The Government is directed not to remove any member of the putative class of detainees [terrorists and gang members] from the United States until further order of this Court,” said the arrogant seven, representing an inferior branch of government, unelected by the people. By contrast, Trump is the elected president.

Let’s understand how we got into this predicament.

The Biden administration successfully filled 235 federal court vacancies with hard-left ideologues and has three hard-core leftists on the Supreme Court. Some Republican-appointed justices on the high Court seem eager and willing to appease the left.

We expected the Biden and Obama nominees to rule against Trump, first with nationwide injunctions and now accommodating the George Soros-funded ACLU in the Alien Enemies case. We warned in our 2018 report, The Deep State Wears Black Robes, that the Court could not be trusted under “Republican” Chief Justice John Roberts.

In our Rumble broadcast just a month ago, J.B. Williams of the North American Law Center (www.tnalc.org) examined how judges appointed by Obama and Biden, in coordination with John Roberts, were stacking the deck against the Trump Administration in the federal courts and why Attorney General Pam Bondi had made a critical mistake by not officially objecting in advance to their rulings that far exceed their constitutional jurisdiction.

Now, Bondi looks like a fool, and the rest of Trump’s lawyers have egg all over their faces. They failed to recognize the real problem – judicial supremacy.

J.B. Williams says Bondi should still take the lead and reject their atrocious rulings by exposing their “bad behavior” on the bench and calling on the Court to restrain and restrict their unconstitutional actions.

Our “Deep State” report on the courts had focused on the rise to prominence of Judge Brett Kavanaugh, the Washington insider who emerged as one of Trump’s Supreme Court nominees over far more conservative and pro-Constitution candidates. Kavanaugh had worked for President Bush, covered-up for the Clintons, and ruled for Barack Hussein Obama on matters involving Obamacare and the massive surveillance powers of the National Security Agency (NSA).

To understand the history of judicial tyranny, we recommended Phyllis Schlafly’s book, The Supremacists: The Tyranny of Judges and How to Stop It and John Stormer’s Betrayed by the Bench: How Judge-made Law Has Transformed America’s Constitution, Courts and Culture.

Originally published in 2004, the book by Schlafly, who passed away in 2016, offered a series of measures, including impeachment, to stop tyrannical judges.

But our elected representatives have failed to assert their authority. To cite another example, having found a “right” to engage in sodomy in the Constitution, when none exists, the Supreme Court imposed homosexual marriage on all 50 states. The Congress went along. Even Trump did not object.

To this day, the innocent unborn are not given due process, although the Supreme Court did return the matter to the states.

By contrast, foreign terrorists and gang members are given “due process” on American soil, even though they are here illegally.

A lawyer who wrote more than a dozen books, Phyllis Schlafly was a big backer of President Trump. He should read her book.

Stormer, who passed away in 2018, was a great Christian conservative who wrote the 1964 seven-million copy best seller, None Dare Call It Treason, which had a dramatic impact on Ronald Reagan personally and the movement that later elected him as president.

Back in 2017, I quoted J.B. Williams as saying that if Trump and his Cabinet were serious about draining the swamp, the left had to be stopped from using activist judges to thwart Trump’s attempts to secure the USA and enforce our laws. “Or else,” he wrote, “the notion of draining this swamp is a joke!”

The same advice applies to Trump’s second term, as the Supreme Court has intervened in an unconstitutional manner to protect the foreign terrorists and gang members on American soil.

We must recognize the nature of the real oligarchs who sit on the bench.

New Transparent Government? Former Congressman: What About 9/11?

Authored by Devvy Kidd not AI

April 21, 2025

“Is there anything more shameful than the man who lacks the courage to be a coward?” – Peter Blaunder

Last week my column covered our new “transparent government” and a former NSA long time (well over 30 years) employee; Technical Director considered a genius in his field who became a whistleblower: Bill Binney. If you missed it, take the time to at least watch the documentary embedded in my column, A Good American. What you see in that documentary should be a wake-up call as to the lying and spying on domestic Americans and more treachery against We the People.

Former Congressman Curt Weldon is not unknown to old timers like me even though he’s been out of office for 20 years. I know it’s hard to imagine any honest, courageous men and serving in Congress today, but there are some – just as Weldon was while a member of Congress.

Let me take a moment here to send my condolences to one of those honest members of Congress who loves this country: Rep. Andy Biggs and his family. Rep. Andy Biggs’ daughter dies at 37, April 18, 2025. (A mother of 3 who lost her fight against cancer. Parents should never have to bury their child.)

Curt Weldon wasn’t one of those seat warmers who serve in CON-gress to get rich while in office and feed their egos on a daily basis:

Wayne Curtis Weldon (born July 22, 1947) served as a Republican member of the United States House of Representatives from 1987 to 2007, representing the 7th district of Pennsylvania.

“Beginning in 1987, when Mr. Weldon was first elected to the US Congress, he championed maritime and port security. During his tenure he served on the Merchant Marine Committee, the Coast Guard Committee and retired as Vice Chairman of the Armed Services Committee as well as Vice Chairman of the Homeland Security Committee.

“He also organized and Chaired the Congressional Fire/EMS/Disaster Caucus for 20 years serving as America’s Honorary Fire Chief. In this capacity he has been on the scene of every major disaster in the US and worldwide over the last 25 years, including Hurricanes Andrew, Hugo, Katrina, Earthquakes at Loma Prieta/Northridge, L’Aquila, Haiti, Indonesian Tsunami, Beslan School Attack, Exxon Valdez, Mid-West Floods, Western Wildland & Forest Fires, NYC Trade Center ’93 & ’01, among others.”

9/11. 24 years ago. Ten million words probably written in columns and books including those by yours truly; archives here. I debunked some of the false conspiracy theories (click bait) as well as exposing Bush, Jr., a mental midget and liar:

“It has now been four years since America woke up to horror on an unprecedented scale. Despite tens of millions of dollars spent hunting down terrorists, not one single individual has been prosecuted for 9/11.

“Despite over $400 billion dollars and at a cost of one billion dollars per day unconstitutionally spent in Iraq, not one terrorist has been brought to trial.

“On September 13, 2001, Mr. Bush said, “The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him.” (Liar.)

“Hundreds of billions of dollars later and countless lives lost, Bush had a change of heart on March 13, 2002:

“I don’t know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don’t care. It’s not that important. It’s not our priority.” (Another lie.)

“Of course it’s not “our” priority. “Our” being the global banking cartel who call all the shots:

“…You know, by the time you become the leader of a country, someone else makes all the decisions.” August 1998, Bill Clinton speaking in Ireland. Rest at link I wrote in 2005.

The same year – out of my own pocket (I should say my late husband’s as he was our income) I went to Shanksville, PA. $4400 but worth every penny to be on the ground where Flight 93 went into that field – a former strip-mining field and the interviews. Asking Questions at the Flight 93 Crash Site – 4-part series including photos.

The crucial videos of the Pentagon and Flight 77 are still being withheld from We the People. I believe I know where Flight 77 went down; I firmly believe it did not hit the Pentagon. I spent an enormous amount of time researching over the years. If I had President Trump’s money I would have long ago paid for a search. But, now with our new transparent government, all the videos must be released uncut, uncensored and don’t feed us that “national security” blanket BS. I stood in front of the Pentagon a couple months after 9/11 as I was in DC to speak at the National Press Club. The damage you saw on the propaganda box (TV) didn’t even come close to seeing the section hit.

Rep. Curt Weldon: It’s Time to Finally Tell the Truth About 9-11, April 14, 2025. 1,677,064 views on April 19, 2025. Views on April 20, 2025: 1,735,739 – an increase of 68,675 people watching. Americans want the truth as well as the families of individuals from other countries who were murdered that day who were in the Twin Towers either for tourism or business.

This is a 1:27:31 interview with former Congressman Weldon. Tucker Carlson host. “After twenty years in congress, Curt Weldon was about to become chairman of the House Armed Services Committee when he publicly questioned the accuracy of the 9-11 report.

“In retaliation, the Bush administration sent federal agents to his daughter’s house and ended his political career. At 77, Weldon has decided to tell the truth about what actually happened on September 11, 2001.”

If you think Weldon is just some crazy old man, you’re either in denial, don’t care or support what the shadow government and their useful fools have been doing almost as long as I’ve been alive. Or, you simply haven’t accessed credible research about that horrific planned attack. This from my column, The Praetorian Guard, July 31, 2004

“America didn’t always engage in these endless “peacekeeping” missions or invading countries like Kosovo. Over the past six decades, the mind changers have been manipulating the American people through a constant barrage of propaganda and have done a fine job convincing Americans that we should give up our freedoms for the “common good” of the world. This has been done to get the American people to sacrifice their own lives and fortune for the benefit of the world masters orchestrating a one world government. It’s called slave making and the transformation is almost complete.

“In his book, (1999) The Praetorian Guard[1] by John Stockwell, Americans get a stark, raw accounting of exactly what we the people have been forced to fund, not only with money robbed from the people’s treasury, but with the blood of our precious military. Stockwell, Director of the CIA’s Angola Task force in the 1970s, is the highest-ranking officer ever to quit the agency and expose the truth of its operations to Congressional investigators. In his book, he addresses serious questions about a “new world order” that began emerging post-Cold War.

“Stockwell explains how and why he believes that the U.S. policy of supporting “secret wars” in every corner of the globe will continue, even as the alliance between the United States and the Soviet Union, inconceivable not so long ago, continues to merge. Did the tinder-box in the Persian Gulf give the U.S. military-intelligence complex a new lease on life? Is “national security” just a cynical cover for the brutal fact that the United States has become the worlds’ toughest cop, exporting military might to the highest bidder as liberty and prosperity disappear at home?” Read The Praetorian Guard.

This interview with Curt Weldon – like the documentary I cited in my last column (A Good American) is a MUST watch. He’s now 77 years old and fired up, let me tell you. A momma bear protecting her young is small time compared to Weldon’s mission to get to the truth about the 9/11 cover-up. I hope you’ll take the time to watch it, listen and share everywhere.

[1] John Stockwell quotations excerpts from the book The Praetorian Guard by John Stockwell former CIA agent: “…the CIA [has] been running thousands of operations over the years. … there have been about 3,000 major covert operations and over 10,000 minor operations-all illegal, and all designed to disrupt, destabilize, or modify the activities of other countries…

“The major function of secrecy in Washington is to keep the U.S. people and U.S. Congress from knowing what the nation’s leaders are doing. Secrecy is power. Secrecy is license. Secrecy covers up mistakes. Secrecy covers up corruption.”

Why America Can’t Fix Itself Or Correct What’s Happening

By Frosty Wooldridge

April 21, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

An Audience of One

by Rolaant McKenzie

April 20, 2025

In 1991, the German weekly newspaper, Die Zeit (The Time), published a June 13, 1936, photograph showing a large gathering of workers at the Blohm & Voss shipyard in Hamburg at the launching of Horst Wessel, a navy training ship named for a Nazi SA officer who was murdered in 1930. This event included a speech by Deputy Führer Rudolf Hess with Adolf Hitler at his side. In a sea of people enthusiastically raising their arms in the Nazi salute, there was one conspicuous exception, a man toward the back of the crowd resolutely standing with his arms crossed over his chest. This photograph generated great curiosity regarding his identity, and a request was made to the public for information about this brave man.

Four years later, another German newspaper, the Hamburger Abendblatt (Hamburg Evening Newspaper), published the photograph with an article entitled “1936 — Only One Left His Arm Down,” with the subtitle “Writer Looking for Contemporary Witnesses: Who Was the Man?” Shortly after this, the newspaper reported that the daughter of August Landmesser, Irene Eckler, identified the man in the photograph as her father.

August Landmesser (1910-1944) joined the Nazi party in 1931 hoping it would help him gain employment. He later received a job at the Blohm & Voss shipyard. Landmesser was expelled from the party in 1935 when they found out that he was engaged to be married to Irma Eckler, a Jewish woman. Their subsequent marriage registration was rejected because of the Nuremberg Laws recently enacted prohibiting marriages between Germans and Jews. Nonetheless, August and Irma loved each other very much and continued to live as husband and wife, and their first daughter, Ingrid, was born later that year.

Special courts were established by 1934 to penalize anyone who refused to perform the Nazi salute. The penalties varied from fines or intimidation to incarceration in detention camps. Knowing this, Landmesser still refused to do the salute even with the peer pressure of everyone around him doing it and in the presence of Hitler himself.

The repercussions of Landmesser’s courage were severe. He was eventually arrested and sentenced to two and a half years in the Börgermoor concentration camp in 1938. He was released to work as a foreman for the haulage company Püst in 1941. But in February 1944, Landmesser was conscripted into a penal combat unit, killed in action in Croatia six months later, and buried in a mass grave near the village of Hodilje.

Landmesser’s wife Irma, pregnant with their second daughter, was taken by the Gestapo and held at the Fuhlsbüttel prison in 1938, where she gave birth to Irene. She was separated from her children and transferred to several concentration camps, including the one at Ravensbrück. In the end, it is believed that she was taken to the Bernburg Euthanasia Centre, where she was murdered in 1942 along with more than 14,000 others.

Both Irene and her older sister, Ingrid, were separated and survived the war with kind foster parents. In 1951, the local government in Hamburg recognized the marriage of August and Irma. Ingrid took the surname Landmesser, while Irene continued to use her mother’s maiden name, Eckler.

Standing firm on righteous principles, especially against a tyrannical regime, does not always lead to honor and reward in this life. Too many times, it leads to cruel suffering and death, leaving the person to be vindicated in the justice of history. Kim Dae-jung (1924-2009), South Korean prisoner of conscience, statesman, and freedom advocate, alluded to this in his speech when he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize on December 10, 2000, in Oslo, Norway:

“In 1980, I was sentenced to death by the military regime. For six months in prison, I awaited the execution day. Often, I shuddered with fear of death. But I would find calm in the fact of history that justice ultimately prevails. I was then, and am still, an avid reader of history. And I knew that in all ages, in all places, he who lives a righteous life dedicated to his people and humanity may not be victorious, may meet a gruesome end in his lifetime, but will be triumphant and honored in history; he who wins by injustice may dominate the present day, but history will always judge him to be a shameful loser. There can be no exception.”

Micaiah the prophet was confronted with a moment of decision during a state visit of King Jehoshaphat of Judah with King Ahab of Israel (1 Kings 22:1-40). Ahab was soliciting the aid of Jehoshaphat to wage war against the king of Aram to retake the city of Ramoth-gilead. But Jehoshaphat, being a good king who feared the Lord, wanted Ahab to seek His will first before deciding to go to war with Aram. So Ahab gathered about 400 “prophets” who benefited from their alignment with him as the king and would tell him what he wanted to hear, that is, the Lord will deliver the city into his hand.

But Jehoshaphat, apparently unimpressed by these sycophants for Ahab, wanted to hear from an authentic prophet of the Lord. Ahab reluctantly sent a messenger to summon Micaiah from prison, where he had placed him, someone he hated because he would not be swayed by his position of power. The messenger urged Micaiah to align his words with the other “prophets” so that all would go well with him, but he was determined to faithfully present what God wanted him to say.

Micaiah, once brought before the presence of Ahab, could have been intimidated by him and his hundreds of paid supposed men of God prophesying victory. He could have acquiesced to political power and the crowd following it in order to be released from prison. But he recognized that he had only an audience of One, that is, the Lord. It was to Him that Micaiah was most interested in being faithful, and so he told Ahab the truth that if he pursued his course, he would fall at Ramoth-gilead.

Ahab, angered that Micaiah would not echo the positive message of his “prophets,” sent him back to prison with meager rations until he returned from the battle in peace to presumably deal with him later. Of course, the truth of God’s word cannot fail, and Ahab fell in battle just as the prophet Micaiah said he would. But Scripture does not record whether or not Micaiah was ever released from prison when Ahab’s wicked son, Ahaziah, became king of Israel.

Ahab may have had power and prestige as king of Israel in his day, but he will always be remembered as a wicked ruler who led Israel astray and died ignominiously because he refused to obey the word of the Lord. Micaiah, in contrast, will always be remembered as a true prophet of God who stood alone among a sea of opposition and steadfastly told the truth, like those whose trust was in the Lord though they “experienced mockings and scourgings, yes, also chains and imprisonment” (Hebrews 11:35-38). Surely he will receive approval and reward from the Lord Jesus in His kingdom (Matthew 25:21; 1 Corinthians 3:11-15).

Throughout His earthly ministry, Jesus truly had an audience of One, His Father in heaven, whose will He came to accomplish:

“For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who beholds the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.” (John 6:37-40)

On the night that He was betrayed, Jesus’ concern was for us. Though He knew hours later He would be hanging on a cross, Jesus prayed to His Father that His disciples be sanctified in the truth of His word, and not only His disciples, but all who would believe in Him because of their testimony (John 17).

When He was arrested and separated from His disciples, Jesus was taken before Caiaphas, the high priest. There He stood alone and did not shrink from telling the truth of who He was, the Christ, the Son of God, though it would cause His condemnation (Matthew 26:57-68). When He stood alone before Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, He made the truthful testimony of His divine kingship (John 18:28-40).

Pontius Pilate was a powerful Roman governor of a conquered country, but he will ever be remembered in history as one who acquiesced to a bloodthirsty mob and knowingly condemned an innocent man to death. But Jesus will always be the Lamb of God, who out of love for us willingly went to the cross to die a bloody death and fully atone for our sins. His bodily resurrection from the dead on the third day demonstrates that all who trust in Him, He Himself will raise to everlasting life when He returns.

August Landmesser and the prophet Micaiah are examples of doing the right thing by standing firm against evil in the face of overwhelming pressure to do otherwise. While they can be inspirations to us today to do likewise in the challenges we face today, let us never forget what Jesus accomplished on behalf of sinners through His perfect life, death, and resurrection. Let this cause us not only to truly believe in Him but also to be faithful to Him when inevitable trials come our way.

In the end, we have an audience of One, Jesus Christ, and eternal reward comes from Him.

The Day Will Be Both Great and Terrible

By Rob Pue

April 20, 2025

There are many things, in our world today, that point to the imminent return of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Timothy tells us, “…This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce-breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof…”

Sure sounds like our world today, doesn’t it? Every day, we see examples of every single one of those things Timothy lists. The nations of the world are in peril. People are self-centered and self-indulgent and boast of their own accomplishments. Many jealously desire what others have. We’ve even come to a place now where “pride” is celebrated worldwide. And not just any “pride,” but pride in absolute sexual depravity.

Blasphemy is everywhere, as we tear down monuments of the Ten Commandments and in their place, we put statues of the demon Baphomet. Even so-called “Christian” churches now ordain sodomites as “pastors” and celebrate the sin of homosex and the mental illness of “transgenderism” because even those who claim to be “Christian” leaders are now without natural affection. These are “pretend churches,” having a form of Godliness, but denying the power thereof, and even denying the very commandments and covenant of the God they claim to serve.

Children today, raised with an entitlement mentality and immersed in the virtual world of technology and social media now have no relationship with — and no respect for — their own parents. And though we have been immensely blessed by God here in this nation, we remain unthankful, unholy and violent. We love the abundant comfort and ease and seek it fervently, when we should be honoring, reverencing and serving the Lord God.

Despisers of good? Yes, we have that as well. Good is now called “evil” and evil is called “good.” As for truce-breakers, I now know that you really can’t trust anyone or anything anymore. A man’s word is no longer worth a plug nickel. Then there are the traitors, the false accusers and the heady, high-minded — many of which can be found in the highest of political offices, making laws and decrees that we must obey, though they never will.

In Matthew 24, Jesus said this: “And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in diverse places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for My name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.”

Today, our world is replete with wars and rumors of wars. Nations are rising against nations. We have famines. Even here in America, we’ve seen hundreds of food processing plants destroyed by mysterious fires, we’ve had millions of chickens and turkeys destroyed because of a supposedly “deadly bird flu,” we’re told. Strange how we’re not seeing flocks of wild birds dropping dead all around us. This “flu” only seems to affect the birds we depend on for meat and eggs.

We also have many “pestilences” — many of them man-made, cooked up in labs and turned loose on the populace to instill fear and obedience to the almighty world government. Not to mention the deliberate poisoning of our air, water and soil through the use of “geoengineering” or “chemtrails,” and the wicked science experiments where we, the people, are the guinea pigs as mosquitoes are bred to carry the mRNA injections, then set loose to infect us all. If you think I’m a crazy conspiracy theorist, go ahead and think that. But understand, I’ve warned you of many things that were labeled “false news” and “conspiracy theories” at the time, and have since been proven to be true.

We’ve also seen a marked increase in earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, fires and hurricanes in diverse places — places where they should not be happening. The beginning of sorrows. And once again, the words of Christ are absolutely true when we now have true Christ-followers being persecuted, imprisoned, killed and hated of all men. Lukewarm church-goers can rest easy, assured that the enemy will not bother with them, since they’re already unknowingly doing Satan’s work. But if you’re a true Christ-follower, understand that the very fact that you exist will offend many, and you’ll be betrayed by those you thought were your brothers and sisters in Christ. They will hate you.

I’ve experienced this hatred from professing “Christians” personally. So I know a little of what I’m talking about.

It seems like Bible prophecy is playing out right before our very eyes as we read the daily headlines and try to put the puzzle pieces together and make sense of it all. It would seem that the “end times” and the “last days” are here, and our Lord could return at any moment.

But you need to understand, all the things I’ve mentioned here, and quoted from Scripture have been going on since man’s fall in the Garden. Jesus’ own disciples expected Him to return at any moment too, from the time He ascended into heaven. But understand that Jesus also said, “take heed that no man deceive you.” He warned against many false prophets and many false christs, that would lure many away with their lies and deceptions. There have been many false prophets in my own lifetime. Many have set dates, and backed those dates up with Scriptures, twisted to fit their own false prophecies…and many followed those false teachers, some of them to their own deaths.

One could certainly make a case that could deceive even the “elect,” that the Lord’s return is now at hand. But Jesus Himself also warned us, “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.”

I don’t know about you, but I find it sad and disturbing that so many professing Christians today seem so eager for World War 3, the end of the world, Armageddon, the apocalypse. They’re chomping at the bit. They just can’t hardly seem to wait for bloodshed and that “great and terrible Day of the Lord.”

Being in the news media, I have a 24/7 news stream. It never stops. Many of my sources are from Christian organizations. And every day, I see the headlines from these so-called “news” outlets. They seem to be hungering, thirsting and craving for death, destruction and total annihilation. And those who feed off these stories are just as eager for mayhem as those who put the stories out. They crave destruction.

Let me give you a few examples of some of the headlines I’ve seen recently: “Breaking: Worldwide Disclosure Happening Now!” “2025: Proof We’re in the End Times!” “Alert: America Preparing for Major War!” “It Has Begun…They Don’t Want This Seen!” “Apocalyptic Weather Event Across the US.” “Global Economic Collapse Happening Now.” “Mysterious Event Worldwide in 2025.” “The End Times Are Here — Shocking Video.” And one more: “Something Biblical Coming April 2025!”

As if “something Biblical” has not been going on since the creation. I find it ironic and sad that whenever there’s a major disaster or world event, the press calls it “Biblical.” Or, “of Biblical proportions.” Then, God’s Word the Bible somehow suddenly takes on urgency and significance. But the rest of the time, the media mocks and ridicules the things of God, and our public schools relegate the Bible to the category of mythology, superstition and fiction.

Of course, as Christians, we look forward to our Lord’s return, when He will restore righteousness to the earth, judge the wicked and bring justice. But Christians, stop salivating at the thought of that “great and terrible Day of the Lord.” Stop looking forward to it so eagerly. Because it will be both great and terrible. You may feel confident, and perhaps rightly so, that you’ll simply be welcomed into the loving arms of Jesus. If you know Him, confess Him, have been washed, renewed and sanctified by Him in this life, been baptized in His name and, importantly, have invested your life in serving Him and following the Father’s commandments, it truly will be a great day for you.

But Revelation 20:12 tells us this: “And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged from the things which were written in the books, according to their deeds.”

This should give us all a great sense of urgency to get our lives right with God, in alignment with His will. We should search our hearts to see if we’re truly putting Him first; and our lives to see if we’re really, truly occupying until He returns. If we are not about our Father’s business daily, we’re no better than the one who buried his “talents” and was called a “wicked servant.”

We are not saved by our works, but when those “books” are opened, they’ll present all the evidence before the Almighty righteous Judge, of everything we did and every word we spoke in this life. Our lives here in this world are a “proving ground,” and all will see the evidence of our lives on this earth — all the things we did, either good or evil, and then judgment will be pronounced.

In Matthew 7, we read the words of our Lord: “Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not everyone that saith unto Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy name? And in Thy name have cast out devils? And in Thy name done many wonderful works?’ And then will I profess unto them, ‘I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.’”

This is serious stuff, folks. I urge you to examine your lives, and if you are not serving the King of kings, if you’re not occupying ‘til He returns, if you’re simply going to church and then going home again, you better start taking your professed faith more seriously. The Lord is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Following repentance comes a lifetime of sanctification. And understand that you were saved to serve. To minister. To witness. You need to be more eager to lay down your life for the sake of Christ, if that should be required of you, than you are to simply spend your time on earth in comfort, luxury and ease while you await your heavenly “reward.” Because you may not get the “reward” you’re expecting. If you’re ashamed of your Savior in the presence of men, He will be ashamed of you in the presence of His Father.

Revelation 21:8, “But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

Notice something about this verse of Scripture. The cowardly are just as wicked for being cowardly — too fearful and ashamed to openly serve Christ — as are unbelievers, murderers and the sexually immoral. In fact, it’s the cowardly who go first into the lake of fire!

Take heed, and remember John 9:4 when Jesus said, “I must work the works of Him that sent Me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.” And remember this from Ephesians 5, “See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” They always have been. So, stop looking for the rapture under every rock and behind every tree. Dedicate your time in this life to serving and obeying the commands of Christ, unashamedly and courageously. Be about His work, so that when that day comes, you can enter in to the joy of thy Lord.

The Resurrection of Jesus and the Victory of Eternal Love

by Peter Falkenberg Brown

April 20, 2025

~ In celebration of Easter ~

It was not just a stone that was rolled away from the door of Jesus’ tomb. The darkness of the triumph of evil was also rolled away. The resurrection of Jesus created the victory of eternal love over the despair of death.

Jesus entered a world of cruelty with a message that all humans had souls that were directly connected to God, to love, and to a life that was designed to be eternal. We were not just intelligent animals clawing our way over the unimportant bodies of our neighbors. No, all of us, including our enemies, were more.

Although love was present in many human hearts (for love can never be entirely extinguished), life at the time of Jesus was far closer to Hell than to Heaven. Hell, after all, is the realm where love is absent, where individuals are not regarded as sacred and precious incarnations of the God who embraces all of us. Instead, in Hell, feelings and actions are divorced from God, and the human heart is lost—broken and withered by the pain of life, with no awareness of the light flickering in each despairing soul.

Where does the knowledge of love come from? How did we step forward in our ascent from the darkness of caves, from the casual brutality of a world that had no knowledge of the transcendent beauty of a Heavenly world of spirit?

Humans cannot easily perceive realities beyond the boundaries of their current levels of awareness. We can imagine and seek and question, but the illumination of a soul is a blessing that comes from above, a gift that ultimately comes from God.

Jesus was the most extraordinary of gifts to the human race—a man who demonstrated a quality of love and an awareness of the intimacy of God that was so revolutionary that millions of souls have moved beyond the world of separation from God into a realm of sacred and transformative love.

The blessing of the awareness of God’s love for each of us is a gift that is available to all of us at any time. Jesus eliminated the boundaries of class, of race, of wealth, of slavery. All humans, without exception, were—and are—loved equally. Jesus vividly demonstrated that God was eager to embrace and love every single person.

All that was required was the one thing that God could not do alone—open each person’s heart. Still, God designed the human heart and the free will that too often kept it closed with the simplest of methods that can open anyone’s heart to the love of God. In Jesus’ words from the Sermon on the Mount, in Matthew 7:7-8, he gave us the key:

“7 Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For every one who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.”

The divine gift of God’s personal, unchanging, and eternal love is available to all of us. Depending on our circumstance, or our own internal level of maturity or growth, we might have to ask more than once. We might have to study how to ask, with humility, with determination, and a childlike innocence and simplicity. But ask we should, for as many times as it takes, for the doorway will indeed open.

The life and resurrection of Jesus were gifts to the world that revealed how powerful God’s love was for humanity. They were messages to every one of God’s children that even though the world was often hellish and unbearable, we all belonged to God, we all were qualified to receive God’s love, and we all could live with God for eternity. The death of our bodies was shown to be a trivial matter, for our souls continued forever.

Those gifts produced a faith and a love, renewed every Easter for the last two thousand years, that have transformed the world. In spite of the flaws of many individuals who struggled to live up to the transcendent love of God and Jesus, the victory of the eternal love of the resurrection has never been lost.

It can never be lost or forgotten because the presence of God in every human life will never change. As Paul wrote in Romans 11:29:

“For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable.”

Cinco de Mayo – Know Your History

By Dennis Kelly

April 19, 2025

We had dinner last night at a local Mexican Restaurant. Most of the wait staff are of Mexican descent. As our waiter Roberto was taking our order I asked if the restaurant was planning a big celebration for the upcoming Cinco de Mayo. This guy was pretty savvy and sort of rolled his eyes and asked why would we do that? Knowing the truth myself I kidded him and I said, “You Know” for the big Mexican Independence Day celebration. Roberto gave us a quick history lesson about this charade telling us

Mexico celebrates its Independence Day on September 16th where they gained Independence from Spain in 1821. Then what is Cinco de Mayo one might ask? Historically, Mexico claimed victory at the Battle of Puebla over the French on May 5th, 1862 during a complicated struggle called The Reformed War and has nothing to do with Mexico’s Independence Day.

In truth Cinco de Mayo began as a form of resistance by the “Chicano Movement” around the 1970’s pointed exclusively at the United States for the Mexican-American War 1846-1848 where the U.S. annexed Texas and ultimately acquired the New Mexico and California territories.

So how did it become a pseudo–American Holiday? Money of course. By the 1980’s, companies, mainly beer companies began commercializing the May 5th date as Mexican Party Day or perhaps “Corona Day!” Actually, it has morphed into “Hispanic Day” with parades in major cities across the nation.

Now I don’t begrudge those Americans of Mexican descent their pride and nationality, just as I have of my Irish heritage. And like St. Patrick’s Day it appears to me that it has grown into another marketing scheme by a bunch of beer companies turning an obscure Mexican battle into national Corona – XX Dos Equis bash. How long before our congress critters figure out, we need to declare Cinco de Mayo a Federal Holiday to garner the support of our Hispanic brethren, here legally or not? Is that a stretch? I mean let’s take Juneteenth for instance, which after waiting 160 years, became a Federal Holiday in 2021 commemorating the end of slavery on June 19th 1865.

Prior to that or still to this day, I bet not one in one hundred or maybe a thousand, black or white could tell you anything about Juneteenth or what it actually represents. In fact, I remember asking my postal clerk after it became a federal holiday if they knew what Juneteenth represented. They said, I don’t know but I’m glad I have the day off. Do you see how important these holidays are to the general public? Doesn’t it warm your heart?

So don’t be surprised with a nation recently over run with 15 million illegals from south of the border that we see an effort to make May 5th, an ostensibly anti U.S. Chicano Movement, turned from national party time into a federal holiday. Is it still okay to Remember the Alamo? At least we still have Columbus Day.

This is An Easy Way to Do Your Duty to Send Your Orders to Congress

By Andrew Wallace

April 19, 2025

It is usually difficult for the average person to find the time to collect the information required and format it to give his or her orders to their elected representatives. I have attempted to do the work for you in a simple format that allows you to add or subtract items as you desire. See the suggestions below. Then all you do is mail or email to your elected members of Congress. I will attempt to answer any questions you have by email to me at www.natlmktg@gte.net. But for more comprehensive information, refer to my articles at www.newswithviews.com.

Dear (elected representative),

Listed below are my requests for your actions in Congress. If you will not comply, please explain why you refuse. Remember that you work for the people, and if you don’t respond in a proper manner that indicates that you are not representing my interests and values, I will no longer vote for you.

(Signed)

(your e-mail or street address)

———————————————————————-

Examples of my desired actions by Congress are listed below:

1. Terminate the Income tax. It is impossible to have a Constitutional Republic with it. Use tariffs to finance the government after its return to only Constitutional functions (government was financed with tariffs/excise taxes until 1913) and can continue to perform them after trimming unconstitutional departments and functions..

2. Terminate all unconstitutional functions not authorized by Enumerated Powers. (I estimate more than 50% of the government is a criminal enterprise without Constitutional backing).

3. Terminate the unlawful Privately- Owned Federal Reserve Bank.

4. Return to Constitutional money (Gold & Silver) ending wars for profit, inflation and skulduggery.

5. Terminate all unconstitutional Foreign Aid, which is bribery and kickbacks.

6. Terminate unconstitutional FEMA and all federal payments to the states.(Without income tax, states can finance themselves).

7. Terminate Tax-Free Foundations (mostly a scam for eternal control)

8. Terminate all state and federal payments to illegal invaders. (The Constitution says it is treason!) Prosecute employers of illegals. Deport all illegal invaders as fast as possible, regardless of cost, or we will suffer destruction like Europe.

9. Terminate all welfare to the able- bodied. Fathers and mothers should support their children, not citizens.

10. Terminate 50% of Federal Judges and require judicial decisions affecting the country to only be effective with Supreme Court approval.

11. Return all 250,000 of our military from all foreign countries. Leave NATO.

12. Our country can’t be invaded; it can only be defeated in nuclear war or from within. ( Democrats brought in more than 10 million, mostly military- aged illegal invaders as a Communist army and to control elections.)

13. A Declaration of War is required to attack a country, and none has been declared for any wars in the last 80 years . (We lost all of them, and it cost over 105,000 military dead, all for profit and bribes, not for national security!)

14. FBI is responsible for total corruption of the government because they were complicit in crimes and refused to prosecute crooked officials. Terminate the FBI if they don’t prosecute corrupt officials and replace them with the Militia of the Several States as dictated by the Constitution.

15. Take away CIA’s budget and authority to interfere in foreign governments, or disband it. (We don’t need the hatred of America they cause).

16. Return elections to the citizens by outlawing all contributions from Big Money (corporations and wealthy individuals). Donations limited to $1,000, and then only if the donor can vote for the recipient.

17. Refuse to continue voting for unconstitutional laws, which are any “laws” not authorized by the Enumerated Powers in the Constitution.

18. Failure to comply with many of my requests without justification is a violation of my trust and your solemn Oath of Office. Know that your breach of Oath disqualifies you from holding that office.

Automatic License Plate Readers

By Paul Engel

April 18, 2025

Will you give up your privacy for a promise of safety?
Do Automatic License Plate Readers violate the Fourth Amendment?
Should police be allowed to search a license plate database without a warrant?

There will always be tension between our desires for privacy and safety. We’re all for privacy, until we find that an invasion of said privacy could have stopped some terrible event. But are we willing to trade our privacy for safety? As Benjamin Franklin said:

“They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security.” —Benjamin Franklin

In the case of Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police the privacy question revolves around automatic license place readers (ALPRs) and what makes a search reasonable.

Background

While the term “Automatic License Plate Readers” is pretty self-explanatory, how the case came to be is very important.

Six years ago, United States Postal Service worker Tamara Clayton was fatally shot on the I-57 highway. “This unfortunate expressway shooting sparked a movement within the community, Illinois State Police (ISP), Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), local police agencies, and the Governor’s office.” … On January 1, 2020, Illinois enacted the Tamara Clayton Expressway Camera Act to fund the installation of approximately 300 cameras—known as “automated license plate readers” or “ALPRs”—across Cook County expressways. … Two years later, Illinois passed a statute appropriating additional funds and extending the program to twenty other counties. … To date, the Illinois State Police has installed 344 cameras in Cook County, 78 in St. Clair County, and 44 across 17 other counties.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

As with so many cases, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. I feel for Ms. Clayton’s family, and recognize the desire to be safe. But does our desire to be safe trump our rights or the rights of others? On the other hand, does our right to privacy trump the rights of others to be safe? Maybe there’s something in the details that can help us navigate this conundrum.

This surveillance program works in two steps. Installed on the side of a road, ALPRs photograph (or “detect”) the license plates of vehicles driving by. The system then uploads the photo to the Law Enforcement Archival Reporting Network (“LEARN”) database. This national database compiles and stores billions of license plate photos taken by ALPRs in Illinois and elsewhere.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

OK, that sounds terrifying. Billions of license plate photos, stored in a national database, that can be used to track where you go. Unfortunately, it gets worse.

Law enforcement agencies across the country flag “hot plates” of vehicles that are targets of investigation—for instance, if the car is reported stolen, is used as the getaway vehicle in a bank robbery, or has expired registration. License plate photos sit idle in the database until there is a “hit”—when an ALPR “detects” a hot plate. When police receive notification of the hit, they can enter the LEARN database to retrieve the license plate photo and associated metadata of when and where the photo was taken. This information allows police to “see what cars passed by that area at the relevant time and to whom those vehicles are registered.” Last month, ALPRs in Illinois recorded 200,161,762 detections and 5,747,483 hits.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

So all law enforcement needs for the system to start searching this database for plates is to ‘flag’ them? Yes, there are plenty of reasons for law enforcement to legitimately search for a license plate, but there are plenty of legitimate reasons for them to search for anything. However, in this country, those searches must be reasonable. That usually means the government must get a warrant, not for searching the “LEARN” database.

Under the Expressway Camera Act, an Illinois State Police officer may retrieve a license plate photo from the database to investigate “any offenses involving vehicular hijacking, aggravated vehicular hijacking, terrorism, motor vehicle theft, or any forcible felony, including, but not limited to, offenses involving the use of a firearm[.]” … They may also retrieve a photo “to detect expressway hazards and highway conditions; and to facilitate highway safety and incident management.” By statute, “[a]ll images from the cameras shall be deleted” from the LEARN database “within 120 days, unless the images are relevant to an ongoing investigation or pending criminal trial.”

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

Again, if law enforcement has probable cause to search the database, why not get a warrant? Probably because a warrant would limit the scope of law enforcement’s search to the data relevant to the case they were investigating.

Plaintiffs in this case challenge the Expressway Camera Act and Illinois’s warrantless use of ALPRs, claiming they violate the Fourth Amendment’s protections against unreasonable searches and warrant requirements. They asked the court for a preliminary injunction, preventing respondents from accessing ALPR data without a warrant. Defendants moved for dismissal due to a lack of jurisdiction.

Standing

In order for a case to be heard in federal court, the plaintiffs or petitioners have to have “standing.” The court explained this in their decision.

Article III “confines” federal jurisdiction “to ‘Cases’ and ‘Controversies.’” … One aspect of the Case or Controversy requirement is the doctrine known as “standing.” Standing requires a plaintiff to “have a ‘personal stake’ in the case.” … This “irreducible constitutional minimum . . . contains three elements.” … Those elements are an “injury in fact, a causal connection between the injury and the defendant’s conduct, and likely redressability through a favorable decision.” … “The party invoking federal jurisdiction bears the burden of establishing these elements.”

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

While this is the standard the court has established, it’s not established by the Constitution. In fact, the very idea that I must actually suffer harm before I can seek redress of a bad law, violates the First Amendment.

Congress shall make no law … abridging … the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

U.S. Constitution, Amendment I

When a government entity passes a law that violates the rights of the people, is that not a sufficient grievance? Should I not seek to redress before I jeopardize my future with an encounter with law enforcement?

Privacy

The first request made by the plaintiffs is to prevent the use of ALPRs.

First, plaintiffs seek to enjoin the warrantless use of ALPRs to photograph motorists’ license plates. As alleged, plaintiffs “regularly drive[] on the expressways in Cook County and the surrounding area, almost always using the same personal vehicle, including commuting from [their] home[s] in Cook County to work in the Chicago suburbs, as well as regular other trips by car in areas covered by Illinois’ ALPR system.” … With “some 300 ALPR cameras across every expressway in Cook County,” …, one can reasonably infer that those cameras will photograph plaintiffs’ license plates.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

The problem with this argument is that when you are in public you have no reasonable expectation of privacy, but that does not mean that the government has a right to collect data about you.

Indeed, courts routinely hold that the subjects of government surveillance have standing to challenge that surveillance. …. “Whether or not such claims prevail on the merits, [plaintiffs] surely have standing to allege injury from the collection, and maintenance in a government database, of records relating to them.”

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

So, while courts have recognized your right not to be surveilled on your own property, that does not extend to being in public. If that were true, not only would all security cameras, including the one you may have on your doorbell, would be illegal. That would also preclude you from taking a picture or capturing video in public as well, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a problem with ALPRs.

Unreasonable Searches

Yes, you can be recorded in public, with or without your permission. What about searching those records though?

Second, plaintiffs seek to enjoin the warrantless use of the LEARN database.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

After all, the Fourth Amendment is supposed to protect us from unreasonable searches. What is the reasonable justification for an exception to the warrant requirement? Is it just because law enforcement has already collected this data? Once again, the courts place the desires of law enforcement above the rights of the people.

However, the complaint does not allege any facts indicating a “substantial risk” that police will soon retrieve plaintiffs’ license plate information from the database.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

So it’s OK if the police infringe on your rights, as long as there were no facts presented that there was a substantial risk they’d do so beforehand? I don’t know if the judge was simply obtuse or outright biased, but her explanation of his “substantial risk” is laughable.

Indeed, plaintiffs do not allege that they will soon commit (or be victims of) any of the offenses enumerated in the Expressway Camera Act—namely, “vehicular hijacking, aggravated vehicular hijacking, terrorism, motor vehicle theft, or any forcible felony[.]”

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

The purpose of the warrant requirement is NOT to justify a reasonable search, but to prevent an unreasonable one. I’m sure if the plaintiffs were victims of a hijacking or vehicle theft, they would find it reasonable to search the ALPR database for their vehicle. But what about searches for other reasons? Say an abusive husband or boyfriend trying to track down their victim? Or an officer, on a hunch or vendetta, that wants to surveil a suspect, but cannot get a warrant? Couldn’t they use the ALPR database to grab pictures wherever the suspect’s vehicle travels? After all, couldn’t an officer simply list them as a “hot plate” without any probable cause?

The court went on to make a rather interesting argument about searches.

“The Supreme Court has developed two distinct paths to identify a search[.]” United States v. Tuggle, … First, “[u]nder the property-based approach, a search occurs when an officer enters a constitutionally protected area . . . for the purpose of gathering evidence against the property owner.” … “Alternatively, under the privacy-based approach, courts ask whether a person has a legitimate expectation of privacy in a given situation.” … Because plaintiffs do not argue that the ALPR program involves a physical intrusion on their property, the court will examine their Fourth Amendment challenge under the privacy-based approach.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

The court, apparently in an attempt to justify this violation of your rights, points out that since ALPRs do not physically intrude on your vehicle, you have no expectation of privacy, as defined by the courts. They seem to ignore the fact that, when an officer enters a “hot plate” into the database, the government is searching for the effects of a private individual for the sole purpose of determining where this person might logically be.

Mass Surveillance

And what about this mass collection of data?

As alleged, defendants are “holding onto . . . mass surveillance data in case one day some police officer decides to target Plaintiffs for specific investigation.”

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

Should the government be allowed to surveil the public without any reasonable suspicion, then hold onto that data in case they want to use it in the future?

While “one day” need not be today or tomorrow, it must be some ascertainable time. See Lujan, 504 U.S. at 565 (explaining that “‘some day’ intentions—without any description of concrete plans, or indeed even any specification of when the some day will be—do not support a finding of the ‘actual or imminent’ injury that our cases require”). Because their alleged constitutional injuries are not sufficiently imminent, plaintiffs lack standing to enjoin the warrantless use of the LEARN database.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

What about evidence from the past? The entire purpose of ALPRs is to collect data in case the police need it “some day.” To say that the fact you cannot point to a specific instance in the future when this might happen to a specific person when there is clear evidence that it is happening to people everyday, is as childish as blaming the cat for wetting the bed. Evidence in this very case shows that almost 6,000,000 “hits” were recorded in a single month in the State of Illinois. While a specific individual may be searched “some day,” this case shows that on average someone is flagged almost 200,000 times a day.

Sovereign Immunity

In their defense, the defendants claim they have “sovereign immunity.”

Next, defendants move to dismiss plaintiffs’ claims on sovereign immunity grounds. Sovereign immunity “bars actions in federal court against a state, state agencies, or state officials acting in their official capacities” … Suits against state officials in their official capacity amount to suits against the state itself.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

Except the entire idea of “sovereign immunity” is antithetical to a nation of laws, not men. People are fond of the idea that no one is above the law, but that is exactly what sovereign immunity claims.

Sovereign immunity is a judicial doctrine that prevents the government or its political subdivisions, departments, and agencies from being sued without its consent. The doctrine stems from the ancient English principle that the monarch can do no wrong.

Sovereign Immunity – The Free Legal Dictionary

If the sovereign, in this argument the government, can do no wrong, then they are above the law. This not only abrogates the concept of a limited government, but violates the Constitution as well.

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;

Supremacy Clause, U.S. Constitution, Article VI, Clause 2

Since the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, not the government of Illinois, they cannot claim to be the sovereign.

SOVEREIGN. A ruler supreme power; one possessing sovereignty. (q.v.) It is also applied to a king or other magistrate with limited powers.
2. In the United States the sovereignty resides in the body of the people.

Sovereign – The Free Legal Dictionary

Since in this country sovereignty resides in We the People, not the government, neither the state nor any of its agents can claim sovereign immunity.

Conclusion

Sadly, it appears once again the courts have placed the desires of the government above the rights of the people.

Defendants’ motion to dismiss, is granted. Because plaintiffs fail to state a claim, they have not demonstrated that they are likely to succeed on the merits. … Thus, plaintiff’s motion for a preliminary injunction, is denied.

Scholl and Bednarz v. Illinois State Police

The only reason the court believes the plaintiffs won’t win is because they have placed their thumbs on the scales of justice by requiring they prove they have already been harmed by this illegal practice.

I agree with the court that vehicle owners have no reasonable expectation of privacy while on public roads, and therefore the license plate readers themselves do not violate the Fourth Amendment. However, allowing the police to search through the effects, arguably the property of those license plates they have captured without a warrant, makes that an unreasonable search. The fact that the court cannot conceive that the police would conduct illegal searches points to the myopic view so many judges have of their fellow government employees.

Personally, I think judge Pacold should be ashamed of herself. While she may have based her decision on the flawed and unconstitutional decisions of her predecessors, she alone is responsible for this violation of justice and basic human rights. I think it’s about time we hire presidents who appoint judges based on their fidelity to their oath to support the Constitution than their political predilections.

Islam’s Dark Cloud Spreading Over Europe

By Amil Imani

April 17, 2025

As of April 2025, a troubling pattern has emerged across Europe and beyond, casting a shadow over the principles of democratic governance. The suppression of political opposition, exemplified by recent events involving figures like Marine Le Pen in France and the ongoing efforts to ban Germany’s Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party, suggests that democracy—once a cornerstone of European identity—may be in its final throes. Coupled with demographic shifts and the rising influence of Islamic ideology, there is a growing concern that the continent is on the brink of profound transformation.

The silencing of opposition leaders across multiple nations has emerged as a disturbing trend. In France, Marine Le Pen, the leader of the National Rally, has received a prison sentence and has been barred from office, a move widely criticized as politically motivated. Similarly, Germany’s attempts to outlaw the AfD, a right-wing party gaining traction, are ongoing, with the country’s Constitutional Court deliberating the case amid accusations of censorship. These actions resonate with earlier instances, such as the banning of opposition leaders in Romania and Brazil, as well as the suspension of elections in Ukraine, as highlighted in recent social media analyses.

This crackdown extends beyond Europe. In Turkey, the detention of Istanbul’s mayor, a prominent opposition figure, and the house arrest of South Sudan’s vice president highlight a global trend of authoritarian overreach under the guise of protecting democracy. Critics argue that such measures—arrests during protests in Georgia, charges of plotting in Mali, and imprisonments following peaceful demonstrations in Cameroon—expose a coordinated effort to stifle dissent, eroding the very democratic ideals that these governments claim to uphold.
Story continues below advertisement

Despite significant efforts, the failure to ban Donald Trump in the United States is a rare exception, suggesting that democratic resilience may persist in some areas. However, Europe’s trajectory appears markedly different, with institutions increasingly prioritizing control over freedom. One commentator noted, “If this is what democracy looks like, perhaps it’s time to admit it no longer exists. “

Alongside this political erosion, Europe is experiencing a demographic transformation that some analysts attribute to a possible rise in Islamic influence. Migration patterns, particularly since the 2015 refugee crisis, have significantly altered the religious and cultural landscape. According to a report by the Gatestone Institute (2024), the Muslim population in Europe is projected to reach 15-20% by 2030, driven by both immigration and higher birth rates within Muslim communities. This shift is especially evident in countries like France, where suburbs are increasingly influenced by Islamic cultural practices, and Sweden, where debates over Sharia law have intensified.

The integration of these communities has been uneven, with some arguing that parallel societies are emerging, resistant to secular democratic values. A study by the Center for European Policy Analysis highlights the growth of Islamist movements that exploit democratic freedoms to advocate for theocratic governance. In the Netherlands, the rise of the Denk party, rooted in Turkish and Moroccan immigrant communities, has sparked concerns about the erosion of liberal values. Similarly, in Belgium, the influence of Islamic councils in local governance has raised questions about the future of secularism.

The convergence of political suppression and demographic change hints at a calculated strategy by certain European elites to retain power by aligning with or yielding to Islamic influence. The banning of right-wing parties such as AfD, which have openly opposed immigration, may inadvertently surrender ground to Islamist agendas. As highlighted by Middle East Forum analyst Daniel Pipes, “The suppression of nationalist voices creates a vacuum that radical ideologies are eager to fill.” This vacuum is already apparent in cities like Malmö, Sweden, where reports of Sharia patrols and honor-based violence have risen.

Additionally, the European Union’s hesitance to directly tackle these issues, along with its endorsement of progressive policies that favor multiculturalism over assimilation, could hasten this transition. A recent policy brief from the Hudson Institute (2025) cautions that, without robust advocacy for democratic values and cultural unity, Europe may slowly move toward a post-democratic, potentially Islamic-dominated regime within a generation.

The evidence is clear: democracy in Europe is under siege, undermined by the very institutions intended to protect it. The banning, jailing, and silencing of opposition leaders signal a shift toward authoritarianism, while demographic trends suggest a cultural transformation that could lead to Islamic influence reshaping the continent. Whether this shift is inevitable or avoidable remains a topic of intense debate. What is certain, however, is that Europe stands at a crossroads. Restoring democratic integrity will require reevaluating current policies, committing to free speech, and adopting a balanced approach to immigration that preserves cultural identity.

As the continent faces these challenges, the international community must observe closely. The decline of democracy in Europe will not only change the global balance of power but also serve as a cautionary tale for nations worldwide. The time to act is now, before the ideals of liberty and self-governance are lost to history.

How To Destroy America: Long Drawn-Out Decline

By Frosty Wooldridge

April 17, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Net Zero Policymakers Remain Oblivious That Electricity Came AFTER Oil!

By Ronald Stein, P.E.

April 16, 2025

All the parts and components to generate electricity are made from oil derivatives manufactured from oil.

Lifestyles are driven by the materialistic and transportation fuel demands of society, of which so-called wind and solar are incapable of fulfilling.

All the climate change alarmists blame emissions from fossil fuels, but they have yet to identify a back-up plan for “something” that will support the demand for products and fuels of current lifestyles in wealthier countries and that of developing economies.

Today, “Net Zero” policymakers setting “green” policies are oblivious to the reality that so-called “renewables”, ONLY generate electricity but CANNOT make anything. In addition, everything that NEEDS Electricity, like iPhone and computers, are made with petrochemicals manufactured from crude oil, coal, or natural gas.

Electricity came AFTER oil, as ALL electrical generation methods from hydro, coal, natural gas, nuclear, wind, and solar are ALL built with the products, components, and equipment that are made from oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil,
All EV’s, solar panels, and wind turbines are also built with the products, components, and equipment that are made from the oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil.
All transportation fuels for cars, trucks, merchant ships, aircraft, and military are manufactured from raw crude oil.
Getting rid of crude oil would eliminate electricity, and the more than 6,000 products in demand by hospitals, airports, communications, and the 8 billion on this planet, and would paralyze virtually all transportation!

The ruling class in wealthy countries are not cognizant that the planet populated, after oil, from 1 to 8 billion, over the last 200 years.

Lifestyles before the 1800’s were drastically different as the world did NOT have any of the following infrastructures that were all made from the products and components made from the oil derivatives manufactured from raw crude oil.

Transportation
Hospitals
Medical equipment
Appliances
Electronics
Telecommunications
Communications systems
Space programs
Heating and ventilating
Military

In addition, all the above infrastructures need electricity, the same electricity that is based upon wire, insulation, etc., that are made from the same oil derivatives manufactured from raw crude oil.

Today, we have more than 50,000 merchant ships, more than 20,000 commercial aircraft and more than 50,000 military aircraft that use the fuels manufactured from crude oil. The fuels to move the heavy-weight and long-range needs of jets moving people and products, and the merchant ships for global trade flows, and the military and space programs, are also dependent on what can be manufactured from crude oil.

We’ve had more than 200 years to “clone” oil to support the supply chain of products demanded by society and have been unsuccessful.

Most likely the 80% of the 8 billion on this planet living on less than $10/day would like to live the materialistic lifestyles of those in the wealthier developed countries.

Today, wealthier countries HAVE ALL the ABOVE infrastructures and have greater longevity than the other 80% on planet earth.

Yet, Net Zero policymakers around the world remain oblivious that Electricity came AFTER oil. Today, Net Zero and decarbonization pledges are a dime a dozen.

Australian Public Service has targeted Net Zero by 2030.
The German government has a target of net zero emissions by 2045.
California has an aggressive decarbonization scheme. It is committed to a “just and equitable transition to carbon neutrality by 2045.
The UK’s net zero target is 2050.
Canada plans to hit net zero by 2050.
EU, Japan, and South Korea are targeting net zero by 2050.
The Biden administration — remember them? — pledged that the US would achieve net zero “no later than 2050.
India targeting net zero by 2070.
China claiming it will hit net zero “before 2060.”
According to the Clean Energy States Alliance, 24 states, Puerto Rico, and the District of Columbia, have “100% clean energy goals.”

Shockingly, all the above worldwide Net Zero policies to rid the use of fossil fuels would eliminate electricity, and the more than 6,000 products supporting the 8 billion on this planet, and ground all transportation dependent on the fuels made from crude oil!

There’s a huge and growing gap between these worldwide decarbonization pledges and the ever-increasing global demand for the products and fuels from hydrocarbons.

According to the International Energy Agency’s Global Energy Review, hydrocarbon growth exceeded the growth in renewables last year. The report also shows that oil, natural gas, and coal provide more than five times as much primary electricity to the global economy as the political darlings of the moment, those so-called renewables

According to the IEA, oil consumption and natural gas continue to increase. While oil and gas are pivotal fuels, the global climate story continues to be defined by coal. Last year, global coal use increased, as well as power generation from coal plants. The IEA’s reports show that soaring coal use and electricity demand in China (population: 1.4 billion) and India (population: 1.4 billion) is swamping all the climate policies and decarbonization efforts in the US, Canada, Europe, Japan, and South Korea.

Before the decarbonization pledges go into effect and significantly reduces the availability of the products and fuels made from oil that are supporting the humanity on Earth, all the worlds’ Net Zero plans NEED to be amended to identify the “replacement” to fossil fuels that can support the growing materialistic demands and the increasing demand for transportation fuels for the 8 billion on this planet.

Was Your Favorite Preacher Crucified For You? Then Why The Division & Contention?

By Bradlee Dean

April 16, 2025

“Was John Calvin crucified for you? How about John Wesley, John Knox, or Martin Luther? Then why the contentions?”

When you look at Godly men such as John Calvin (Calvinism-Presbyterians), John Wesley (Wesleyans), John Smyth (Baptists), Martin Luther (Lutherans), etc. do you think that within themselves that these men wanted a denomination that would take up their names? Absolutely not!

These men were magnifying the revelations given unto them by the Spirit of God, concerning their calls (Ephesians 4 :11), and as they continued to follow Christ, the One name under Heaven, whereby men might be saved (John 14:6; Acts 4:12!) carnal men failed to understand. They, in their carnalities, began to follow the men rather than the Christ that was crucified on their behalf that these men were preaching. What could be the result, you got it, division and contentions! Read 1 Corinthians 3:1-3.

No wonder we have over 45,000 denominations around the world and why, because man had failed to understand that Christ and Christ alone is He who was crucified for the sins of the world (1 John 2:2), not their favorite preachers.

Scripture tells us,

“Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.

And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.” – 1 Corinthians 1:10-16

In fact, if your favorite preachers truly follow Christ, he is not going to want you following him in the sense of contending over who gets the credit for their salvation. That is, not if they are faithfully preaching Christ crucified and Him alone (1 Corinthians 1:23-30).

Let’s end this short exposition by going over to Ephesians 4:3-7 and see what it says to us.

“Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.”

MoveOn…NO!

By Lex Greene

April 15, 2025

Americans have become accustomed to “going-along to get-along,” but there are some things that we just can’t move-on from without confronting the issue and fixing what was broken. In a nation focused on precedence rather than the rule of law, we cannot allow bad precedence to stand.

Our Founders knew this day would come… “all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed;” – Declaration of Independence, 1776

The MoveOn.org domain name was registered on September 18, 1998, following the September 11, 1998 release of the Independent Counsel Starr Report. The organization founders were computer entrepreneurs Joan Blades and Wes Boyd, the married co-founders of Berkeley Systems, an entertainment software company based in San Francisco.

It was originally created to oppose the impeachment of then President Bill Clinton, who had been caught sexually abusing a young intern in a room off the Oval Office, lying about it to the American people, and under oath. Clinton was indeed impeached by the House and even convicted by the Senate. But he was not removed from office due to a massive grassroots campaign led by the DNC and folks at MoveOn.org.

Today, that operation is a full-blown extreme left community organizing operation under the new domain front.moveon.org. Along with the DNC ACT BLUE international money laundering scheme, BLM, ANTIFA, the WEF, WHO, Davos Group and UN, and hundreds of Soros NGOs and “non-profits” scattered all over the globe, this is the Obama “community organizing” machine responsible for the ongoing efforts to “fundamentally transform America” into a 3^rd world Marxist toilet. It’s also the money machine for every anti-American protest and riot on American soil.

Today, treason from within is as common as the sunrise and despite a lot of political chatter about it, nobody ever seems to face treason charges. It all emanates from these organizations and is deeply embedded throughout the U.S. government, all in the democrat party and some in the republican party, often referred to as “the deep state” or “shadow government” actually running things in America.

Americans need to face the reality that our country is under siege, swamped with immoral and unethical anti-American Marxists and dumbed-down fruitcakes, hanging from the proverbial cliff by our fingernails, and the fight would already be over had we not stopped another stolen election last November.

To be clear, the newly minted Trump administration should have already frozen all related funds pending the outcome of criminal investigations into the anti-American actions of these groups. I don’t know why they haven’t, but it likely has something to do with the following…

At the epicenter of it all in the USA is one Barack Hussein Obama, the American leader of the “cultural revolution” not unlike the revolution that destroyed China many years ago. His entire history is one great big fat fraud.

The utter destruction of the USA since 2009 has been massive. Citizens who remember what America was like before can barely recognize the country today, and they fear for their children and grandchildren’s future.

Obama’s unlawful occupation of our Oval Office isn’t just the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on the American people…it is an overt act of treason.

2381. Treason

“Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere;”

This is not something we can “move-on” from.

Treason from within the highest levels of government cannot be tolerated, because it cannot be survived.

Honestly, every person who sets out to undermine, subvert, or overthrow the U.S. Constitution is guilty of treason. Everyone who attempts to overthrow our republican form of government in concert with anti-American powers here and abroad, is guilty of treason, whether they are smart enough to know it or not.

In my opinion, the entire democrat party is anti-American today. Many in the republican party are too. Politicians get away with it because the people are either just as corrupt, too dumbed-down to know, or too cowardly to hold them fully accountable for their anti-American actions.

No nation can survive treason from within. Until the Obama fraud and treason is dealt with, the nation cannot be saved.

We can’t “MoveOn” until this evil is corrected.

Step One in defeating the enemies within requires cutting off the money supply to the operation. This requires the Department of Justice to freeze and seize all global assets of Act Blue and every Soros related organization, along with that of operations like front.moveon.org and numerous others.

To win this war, we have to either take the fight out of the enemy or take the enemy out of the fight!

Someone has to do something, and that someone is YOU and ME! There isn’t anyone else!

Trump Versus the Big Banksters

By Cliff Kincaid

April 15, 2025

In the “trade wars” underway, President Trump is not only facing off against Red China but the global Big Banks headquartered in New York which underwrote the communist Chinese rise to power economically and militarily. As a result, even Maria Bartiromo of Fox News catered to Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase, asking for comments on her show that forced Trump to “pause” some tariffs. Trump acknowledged he watched Dimon’s comments and reacted accordingly.

How did the CEO of JPMorgan Chase get such power?

Bartiromo understands Dimon’s role. Her broadcast series, “Uncovering Wall Street’s Role in China’s Power Play,” is designed to highlight the role of the Big Banks.

Antony Sutton’s 1974 book, Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution, documents a link between U.S. banking interests and the Bolshevik cause, the subsequent rise of Communist China, and the invasions of South Korea and South Vietnam, resulting in 100 million dead. In addition, tens of thousands of American military personnel died attempting to stop the advance of international communism.

The 23 million people on the island of Free China on Taiwan are now in immediate danger.

In China’s case, it was Henry Kissinger who insisted that China had abandoned communism, and was no longer a threat.

On the business channels, we are being treated to an endless series of doomsday forecasts, such as Ray Dalio, the American billionaire and hedge fund manager who founded Bridgewater Associates, warning of a recession or worse if the tariffs against China remain. He is a figure in the National Committee on United States-China Relations, which “promotes understanding and cooperation between the United States and Greater China in the belief that sound and productive Sino-American relations serve vital American and world interests.”

To understand the current dilemma, consider V.I. Lenin’s Imperialism: The Highest Stage of Capitalism, where he writes about how the export of capital by the banks and corporate monopolies has replaced the “old capitalism” of free competition.

The Soviet revolutionary expanded on the Communist Manifesto to predict the rise of the international banks as the “highest stage of capitalism” emerged. We must understand the Marxist “game plan” for the world.

“Today,” says the JPMorgan Chase website, “we serve Chinese and international corporations, financial institutions and government agencies through our network in Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Guangzhou, Chengdu, Suzhou and Shenzhen.” They are proud of what they have done.

We are in this position because of more than 30 years of what the United Nations called “trade liberalization,” defined in glowing terms as the reduction of trade barriers between nations. Some conservatives fell for the bait because they thought that “free trade” ran counter to the notion of big government.

However, “free trade” as envisioned by the U.N. always involved giving international bureaucracies the power to manage trade relations between states, as Big Banks financed the rise of the rest of the world, including Red China. Hence, free trade was really managed trade under the supervision of the U.N. and came to define globalization financed by capitalists, leading to the rise of Red China.

Back in 1974, Richard Gardner, a deputy assistant secretary of state for International Organization Affairs in the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, wrote a very revealing article entitled “The Hard Road to World Order” in the Council on Foreign Relations journal Foreign Affairs. Gardner predicted that new General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) arrangements and procedures would amount to “an end run around national sovereignty, eroding it piece by piece, [which] will accomplish much more than the old-fashioned frontal assault.”

GATT was replaced by the World Trade Organization (WTO).

The Red Chinese were never punished for using their own tariffs to protect their own industries. Meanwhile, the communists looted the economy of the United States for their own military purposes, shipped chemicals to Mexican cartels to make fentanyl to kill Americans, and then unleashed COVID, a bioweapon, on the world, costing millions of lives and trillions of dollars.

Researchers began using the phrase “Deaths of despair” to refer to what was happening in America under “free trade.” Shannon Monnat, an assistant professor and research associate at Penn State University, published a study, “Deaths of Despair and Support for Trump in the 2016 Presidential Election,” which found a strong vote for Trump in Rust Belt states with higher drug, alcohol, and suicide mortality rates. The Trump support, she notes, was heavy in what her study called America’s new post-industrial “heroin beltway.”

The deteriorating conditions in mostly white communities were described in the book Hillbilly Elegy by J.D. Vance, now the vice-president, who had recognized the Trump appeal that earned him a seat in the U.S. Senate from Ohio before being selected as Trump’s running mate in 2024.

Interestingly, the Washington Post admitted in a major article that the Obama administration recognized the problem but failed to declare a public health emergency, against the pleas of national health experts. The paper described fentanyl as “the deadliest drug to ever hit U.S. streets.”

Trump has recognized the nature of the problem, describing it as an emergency that required using tariffs and other measures in response. But the Big Banks want him to back away, to save their investments in China.

America’s communities are still suffering “deaths of despair,” as local health departments now routinely offer free overdose response training, overdose prevention education, Narcan, fentanyl test strips, and xylazine test strips.

To expose and explain to the America people how this happened, the Republican Congress can subpoena the institutional funders, including corporations and private foundations, as well as leading business and professional firms, behind the National Committee on United States-China Relations.

Their lust for profits and ignorance of true communist aims, as defined in the Communist Manifesto, brought us to this point.

The famous quotation attributed to Lenin, “The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them,” may be true in the sense that the Chinese communists and not the Bolsheviks are buying the rope and the capitalists have financed it.

The Latest SCOTUS Gun Rights Infringement

By Paul Engel

April 14, 2025

When laws need an update, who’s responsible for making the changes?
Can ATF simply rewrite the law because they think it needs an update?
Why would the same Supreme Court that said agencies could not rewrite law last term, tell the ATF they could today?

I don’t know which of the three branches of government does the most to infringe on your rights. Take, for example, the recent Supreme Court decision in the case Bondi v. Vanderstok, where Mr. Vanderstok challenged the recent regulation from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives redefining weapons parts kits as firearms. It seems the Supreme Court has a hard time reading either the law or the Constitution.

Background

While this lawsuit questions the actions of ATF, the events actually starts back in 1968.

The Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA) requires those engaged in importing, manufacturing, or dealing in firearms to obtain federal licenses, keep sales records, conduct background checks, and mark their products with serial numbers.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

While the case was filed in 2023, it really begins with The Gun Control Act of 1968. However, what Justice Gorsuch stated in the opinion about the law, is not exactly correct.

(a) It shall be unlawful—

(1) for any person—

(A) except a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or licensed dealer, to engage in the business of importing, manufacturing, or dealing in firearms, or in the course of such business to ship, transport, or receive any firearm in interstate or foreign commerce; or

(B) except a licensed importer or licensed manufacturer, to engage in the business of importing or manufacturing ammunition, or in the course of such business, to ship, transport, or receive any ammunition in interstate or foreign commerce;

18 USC §922

You see, the Gun Control Act only prohibits a person participating in certain forms of interstate and foreign commerce. As defined in the GCA:

(2) The term “interstate or foreign commerce” includes commerce between any place in a State and any place outside of that State, or within any possession of the United States (not including the Canal Zone) or the District of Columbia, but such term does not include commerce between places within the same State but through any place outside of that State. The term “State” includes the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the possessions of the United States (not including the Canal Zone).

18 USC §921(a)(2)

This is allowed because Congress has the authority:

To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;

U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 3

The act also defines a firearm as:

(3) The term “firearm” means (A) any weapon (including a starter gun) which will or is designed to or may readily be converted to expel a projectile by the action of an explosive; (B) the frame or receiver of any such weapon; (C) any firearm muffler or firearm silencer; or (D) any destructive device. Such term does not include an antique firearm.

18 USC §921(3)

Why did Congress pass this legislation?

Shortly after the assassinations of Senator Robert F. Kennedy and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. stunned the Nation, Congress adopted the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA). … Existing gun control measures, Congress found, allowed criminals to acquire largely untraceable guns too easily.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

Once again, Congress exceeds its Constitutional authority because it saw a “need” and thought it knew better than the Founding Fathers.

In response, Congress adopted a number of new mandates. As a result, many of those now engaged in importing, manufacturing, or dealing in firearms must obtain federal licenses, keep records of their sales, and conduct background checks before transferring firearms to private buyers. 18 U. S. C. §§922(t), 923(a), (g)(1)(A). The Act also requires importers and manufacturers to mark their firearms with serial numbers.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

Again, the Supreme Court reads into the law language that does not exist. Because that language of the law only impacts “any firearm in interstate or foreign commerce”.

These mandates serve at least two ends. The background-check requirement seeks to keep “guns out of the hands of criminals.”

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

The problem is, just because Congress thinks keeping guns out of the hands of criminals is a good thing, which I tend to agree with, that doesn’t mean they can break the law to do so.

The Gun Control Act

In this midst of this, the ATF promulgated a new regulation.

In 2022, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) adopted a rule interpreting the Act to cover weapon parts kits that are “designed to or may readily be converted to expel a projectile,” 27 CFR §478.11, and “partially complete, disassembled, or nonfunctional” frames or receivers, §478.12(c).

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

This is the core of the issue in this case. Do executive agencies have the legal authority to effectively rewrite federal law? As the court points out:

The GCA’s mandates apply to “firearm[s].” … And the law defines that key term broadly. … Thanks to this generous definition, the GCA has long been understood to reach everything from run-of-the-mill rifles to novelty umbrella guns.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

The GCA may have been understood to reach a lot of different weapons, but only when they are in interstate or foreign commerce. The fact that so many people keep forgetting this has led to more and more infringements.

Recent years, however, have witnessed profound changes in how guns are made and sold. When Congress adopted the GCA in 1968, “the milling equipment, materials needed, and designs were far too expensive for individuals to make firearms practically or reliably on their own.” … With the introduction of new technologies like 3D printing and reinforced polymers, that is no longer true. Today, companies are able to make and sell weapon parts kits that individuals can assemble into functional firearms in their own homes.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

Yes, things change over time. But who is responsible for making sure the laws keep up with the times, the agencies or Congress? Because it certainly not the courts. Once again, the Supreme Court wants to justify rewriting the rules.

Some manufacturers and dealers take the position that weapon parts kits do not qualify as “firearms” subject to the GCA. As a result, they say, they are free to sell their products without obtaining a federal license, conducting background checks, maintaining sales records, or marking components with serial numbers.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

To be fair, that is what the law says.

18 USC §921

The law says nothing about firearm components. The law also says that the prohibitions are against firearms in interstate or foreign commerce. This is where the ATF decided to step in and muck things up.

The New ATF Rule

Since Congress was unable to pass legislation to include gun parts kits, it seems the ATF would step in.

In 2022, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives adopted a new rule designed to combat the proliferation of ghost guns. so, the agency invoked authority Congress granted it to prescribe “rules and regulations as are necessary to carry out” the GCA. 18 U. S. C. §926(a).

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

Except that is NOT what 18 U. S. C. §926(a) actually says:

(a) The Attorney General may prescribe only such rules and regulations as are necessary to carry out the provisions of this chapter,

18 USC §926(a)

Not only does §926 not give the ATF the authority to write rules and regulation, it gives the Attorney General that power. Furthermore, the power is to put into effect the provisions of that chapter of the law, not to rewrite that law.

The GCA embraces, and thus permits ATF to regulate, some weapon parts kits and unfinished frames or receivers, including those we have discussed. Because the court of appeals held otherwise, its judgment is reversed, and the case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

Except the GCA says not such thing and the fact that the court thinks it does shows points to how badly the judiciary has been compromised. At least in this case, not all of the justices are blind.

The Dissents

Justice Thomas disagreed with the court. He summarized his dissent in his opening paragraph, and again in his closing paragraph.

The Government asked this Court just last Term to “ ‘rewrite’ ” statutory text so that it could regulate semiautomatic weapons as machineguns. Garland v. Cargill, 602 U. S. 406, 428 (2024). We declined to do so. The Government now asks us to rewrite statutory text so that it can regulate weapon-parts kits. This time, the Court obliges. I would not. The statutory terms “frame” and “receiver” do not cover the unfinished frames and receivers contained in weapon-parts kits, and weapon-parts kits themselves do not meet the statutory definition of “firearm.” That should end the case. The majority instead blesses the Government’s overreach based on a series of errors regarding both the standard of review and the interpretation of the statute. I respectfully dissent.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

Justice Thomas points out that, just last term, the court declined to allow the ATF to rewrite the law, then this term they do. The mere fact that the ATF regulations redefines that word “firearm” should end the case. Instead, the court blesses the ATFs overreach, and I’m not entirely sure why. As Justice Thomas stated in his closing paragraph.

Congress could have authorized ATF to regulate any part of a firearm or any object readily convertible into one. But, it did not. I would adhere to the words Congress enacted. Employing its novel “artifact noun” methodology, the majority charts a different course that invites unforeseeable consequences and offers no limiting principle. I respectfully dissent.

Bondi, Attorney General, et al. v. Vanderstok et al.

As Justice Thomas pointed out, Congress could have authorized the ATF to regulate any part of a firearm, but they didn’t. By ignoring the law, the Supreme Court has opened up a myriad of unintended consequences, most of which we won’t know until it is too late.

Justice Alito also wrote a dissent, but for mostly technical reasons.

Conclusion

Once again, it appears the justices of the Supreme Court has substituted their opinions for the law. As the court said in the case Marbury v. Madison:

It is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is. Those who apply the rule to particular cases, must of necessity expound and interpret that rule.

Marbury v. Madison

Except, in this case, the court didn’t expound on the law, but apparently couldn’t even be bothered to read the law. For example, the law clearly states its prohibited actions regard “any firearm in interstate or foreign commerce,” the law grants the Attorney General, not the ATF, the power to write regulations to fulfill the law, and nowhere that I’m aware of, does the law grant others the right to redefine terms defined in the law.

Then there’s the point made by Justice Thomas. The court that seems so concerned with precedent ignored the precedent it had established in Garland v. Cargill in the previous term, a precedent to follow the law as written by Congress, and now decides it’s perfectly fine for unelected bureaucrats to rewrite federal law. Not only has the court gotten it wrong when it decided this case, it completely inverted the legal structure of the federal government. According to this court, the Congress can overrule the Constitution of the United States, executive regulations supersede U.S. law, and the whims of the court supersede all. Is it any wonder that people don’t trust our so-called justice system? This is why I say we do not have a justice system, but “just a system,” and this court just helped prove me right.

New Transparent Government? What About Bill Binney?

Authored by Devvy Kidd not AI

April 14, 2025

A new dawn seemed to open up for America when Donald Trump was announced reelected by tens and tens of millions of Americans last November. Who knows the exact count because there were voting problems both human and likely machines. Not enough this time around to stop the overwhelming support for Trump. But, hey, let’s try a couple of assassination attempts to get rid of him!

BREAKING: Tulsi Gabbard Drops Bomb on Voting Machines — Says Evidence Shows Voting Machines Can Be Tampered With to Steal Elections, April 10, 2025

Well, imagine that from “former” Democrat, newly minted Director of National Intelligence (who endorsed mentally absent, life-long criminal Joe Biden) as if it’s something new. Tulsi became a Republican in October less than a month before Trump’s reelection. Timing is everything. Gabbard plays “tough girl” when it suits her. Yes, she is a military veteran and thank you for your service.

Gabbard was selected as a WEF Young Leader in 2015.[1] Council on Foreign Relations Briefing Hosted by Rep. Tulsi Gabbard – “Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, which is a nonpartisan membership organization, publisher, and the premiere foreign policy think tank in the country.” [2] Gabbard member of the CFR

However, if you watched her testimony, and I did [3] regarding the alleged “war plans” phone chat that recently dominated the Internet and cable networks, I’m sorry, but all I saw was someone in over her head. Perhaps she was just nervous.

Sorry, getting side tracked here but there’s only a few of Trump’s picks I have faith in getting the job done: Kash Patel, Dan Bongino, Ratcliffe and a few others; very few. It’s unfortunate former Congressman Devin Nunes isn’t part of the intelligence agencies.

I began writing about election fraud – machines and scanners – back in the early 1990’s. In 1998, I wrote my second little booklet (44-pgs) titled Blind Loyalty and sold 700,000 copies at cost. Page after page of provable vote fraud using electronic voting machines; experts warning about how easy it is to program and rig them. Explaining in great detail just how easy it was and why they should not be used in our elections.

Few seemed interested and the prostitute media, of course, labeled anyone questioning the outcome of an election as conspiracy nuts. If it was a Democrat favorite, the election was rigged. If a Republican candidate/incumbent questioned the outcome of an election, the rabid whores on the propaganda box (TV) news channels (and eventually cable networks), repeated ad nauseum candidates were sore losers or “election deniers”. Our elections are safe, honest, blah, blah, blah.

I’ve written so many columns on this over the decades. Many have written detailed books on the issue. We all saw what happened in 2020. So, Tulsi, you’re just now getting around to telling us electronic voting machines can be rigged?

Well, I guess you could call that being “transparent”. Let’s have another committee investigation that will end up collecting dust, OUR dead forgotten – except by their loved ones and friends. Like Extortion 17 and Benghazi. It sickens me right to my soul how both of those “incidents” were covered up and remain so today. Those responsible suffered no accountability, lost their job or held legally responsible.

Many, many Americans are asking the same question:

Gen. Mike Flynn Joins Chorus of Trump Allies Demanding Answers from Pam Bondi and Kash Patel on When Are We Going to See Arrests, April 12, 2025

“’Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, President Trump’s former National Security Advisor and a central figure in the Obama-era Crossfire Hurricane scandal, is once again turning up the heat on key players in the conservative movement, publicly demanding answers from Trump allies Pam Bondi and Kash Patel about long-promised justice.

“In a post on X Thursday, Flynn shared a clip from his must-watch documentary movie FLYNN—Deliver the Truth, Whatever the Cost, calling on the American public to watch the film and understand the depth of corruption he endured at the hands of a “rigged system.”

Oh yes, he did as well as his family. What was done to Gen. Flynn, a truly great American should NEVER have happened in these united States of America. Some of these cabinet members were only confirmed a short time ago. Kash Patel, Feb. 2025. A great addition as Deputy, Dan Bongino, March 17, 2025. The incredible mess and fraud some of these cabinet members inherited have only been on the job a couple of months. It’s almost beyond words and we can thank Musk and DOGE for exposing a ton of it, not to mention trillions in wasted taxpayer’s earnings; the tax man a’coming. Not to mention disloyal federal employees who hate Trump.

I fully understand the frustration as someone whose been writing about cover-ups, lies and fraud for decades with no one ever held accountable. Sub-committee and full committee hearings that are never ending and, in the end, Hillary Clinton, illegitimate president Hussein Obama and so many more are still free and living the high life. Luxury lifestyles while the victims of political coverups – especially whistleblowers – their lives and livelihoods ruined. Reputations destroyed.

Yes, it does take time to put together a criminal indictment case but here we’re talking about cover-ups where more than sufficient evidence already exists to empanel a federal grand jury which I can’t imagine them not coming back with indictments – unless the cases are held in DC. Then trials. Serving all the defendants, response time. High-paid law firms drowning the courts in motions to get cases dismissed. We’ve seen it all with the “lawfare” against President Trump purely for political reasons for nearly a decade.

Personally, I want to see a very long list of players rot at Super Max Federal Penitentiary in Colorado if convicted by a jury. Locked down 23 hours a day until carted out in a pine box. Likely, career criminal Joe Biden will get away with his crimes because I believe he’s in the first stage of Altzheimer’s.

Which brings me to a man named Bill Binney. Not a household name like Einstein who was considered a genius. Nikola Tesla is also better known and without doubt a true genius way ahead of his time. But what was done by the NSA and CIA against Bill Binney, his family and other whistleblower colleagues of his MUST become a major investigation. The guilty and we already know some of their names, need to be indicted.

Bill Binney is a genius. This is from the Government Accountability Project and whistleblowers:

“William Binney and J. Kirk Wiebe are clients of GAP and National Security Agency (NSA) whistleblowers who worked at the agency in excess of 36 years. As Technical Director, Binney developed a revolutionary information processing system called ThinThread that, arguably, could have detected and prevented the 9/11 terrorist attacks, but NSA officials ignored the program in favor of Trailblazer, a program that not only ended in total failure, but cost taxpayers billions of dollars.”

Please do take the time to read the rest. Not long but will give you an accurate over view of just how serious this is and MUST be shut down. We know who the guilty are, now it’s just a matter of the Dept. of Justice to deliver on all the promises about transparency. Don’t let the clock run out on statutes, Ms. Bondi.

Trump has already taken a big first step: President Trump Fires NSA US Cyber Command and NSA Top Boss Timothy Haugh and His Deputy Director, April 4, 2025. (That’s very good, but he really should put Bill Binney in charge, alto’ even if Binney agreed, I doubt he could get confirmed by the Senate. He knows too much.) In the video interview below hosted by Bill Still, Binney briefly covers his current effort to bring all of this to President Trump. We shall see.

Elon Musk: This is where you can also make a huge contribution not only for transparency, but exposing the rot and corruption inside the NSA. You are an American who values free speech and freedom and I guarantee you, the documentary I’m going to mention below will sicken you. 9/11 could very likely been stopped. Think the spying has stopped? Don’t bet the farm.

Elon: Think the NSA isn’t spying on you with their toys? Your phone conversations? Discussions about your future plans, investments and more? If I were you, I would arrange a meeting with Bill Binney. You are considered a genius and all that high tech stuff is a common factor with you and Bill Binney.

Which brings me to one of the most important documentaries Americans must watch and share until millions see it: A Good American. It’s 1hr 40 minutes. Take the time to watch it when it’s quiet so you get the full impact and what it means:

“A Good American” is a gripping docu-thriller about a groundbreaking surveillance program, the brilliant mastermind behind it and how a perfect alternative to mass surveillance was killed by NSA-management for money – three weeks prior to 9/11.

“Bill Binney was a brilliant cryptologist and long-time National Security Agency (NSA) analyst, since 1997 serving as Technical Director. Binney developed a sophisticated program named ThinThread for gathering data capable of providing clues, in real-time, of potential terrorist threats. Built-in safeguards would have prevented the massive surveillance methods later exposed by Edward Snowden. Why was this program killed off? And who was behind that? Friedrich Moser’s eye-opening and deeply disturbing documentary tells the complete story of Bill Binney and those, both inside the NSA and out, who backed ThinThread.”

His house was raided, his son shoved aside by federals with guns, his wife terrorized; Binney was confronted in the shower with guns pointed at him. His colleagues have fared no better regarding their careers. Binney had the brain power to do what he did for the safety of our country. YOUR safety and YOUR family. Is this America or China or No. Korea?

A Good American. Watch it with friends, send the link to X, to your email lists, all social media. It’s that important. We the People have been used, lied to and deceived long enough. The evil must be crushed and the only way that’s going to happen is enough Americans demand justice and the full truth.

If You Could Destroy America: How Would You Do It?

By Frosty Wooldridge

April 14, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Is the World About to Destroy Itself?

By Late Roy Masters

April 13, 2025

The masses become more corrupt, perverse, confused. They are ever more robotized, subject to insidious forces that lead them. They worship shrewd, cunning leaders who parade them straight into the calamity just around the bend.

Basic human anxiety has evolved through different stages: first there is natural self-consciousness, and later comes guilt, fear, confusion, and so on. In this text, we are focusing on two of these symptoms: self-consciousness and guilt.

As shown before, the first stage of anxiety usually revolves around self-consciousness, observed as we mature physically. The second phase is more of the same, embellished by the foolish things we do to escape seeing the first.

Think of this as the one graduating to become the other. As we exert more effort to escape, suppress or otherwise evade the self-consciousness, we then have more to feel self-conscious about.

Unable or unwilling to understand the reason for your first anxiety, you add sin to sin by striving to make your present nature acceptable. The more you accept your present fallen state, the more corrupt you become, as you solicit and get support for it.

“The more you accept your present fallen state, the more corrupt you become”

Self-consciousness, conflict, guilt, fear, anxiety, confusion, insanity and oblivion are the order of decay in the mental march away from the Truth of each present moment.

It’s safe to say that you have spent your whole existence trying to make yourself confident, comfortable and acceptable. You have rationalized, excused, repressed and explained away your embarrassment with a myriad of scientific rationale.

A particularly outstanding example of “scientific” rationale is the attempt to prove we have descended from the same common ancestor as the ape. If we swallow this line, then we don’t have to feel guilt for our dark desires.

When people get the proof they need, they go “ape” and make a religion out of it! Basing their behavior on this philosophy, they revert back to a lower existence instead of moving forward to the higher one, devolving instead of evolving.

So, in actual practice, the theory disproves itself. If you didn’t love yourself so much as you are, you would see, outlined by the light of principle, who it was that gave you that apelike inheritance and who it is that is presently making a jackass of you by accepting you just as you are.

Evil often seems good and beautiful to us because it supports us in the same ways it originally formed us.

God’s Lifeboat Is More Than Half Empty

By Rob Pue

April 13, 2025

This month marks another anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic. For generations, this tragic story has captivated hearts and minds. The loss of the Titanic left a shaken world in disbelief and made people stop and think. I, personally, became deeply intrigued by the Titanic from the moment I learned of the story as a young child.

I believe this is one of those rare, historic events that provides a myriad of timeless lessons. The most obvious is the sinfulness of human pride and arrogance…clearly present in almost every aspect of the story.

Titanic took 12,000 men more than two years to construct. The people of the day wanted luxury, and to say that’s what they found in Titanic would be an understatement. Not only was Titanic the largest man-made moving object ever built, it was also the most luxurious ship the world had ever known. It was a floating palace loaded with fine amenities; a five-star hotel on the sea. Never before had anyone seen anything like it. First class suites even included private promenade decks, sitting rooms and lavatories. It boasted the first on-board swimming pool, and the dining rooms were decked out in fine linen, crystal glassware and fine china.

She was truly impressive, but Titanic’s owners failed to remember Psalm 127:1: “Unless the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it.”

Throughout the Bible are accounts of proud men who refused to humble themselves and acknowledge God, who built monuments to themselves and their achievements, trusting in their own abilities, possessions and self-efforts, rather than acknowledging the Lord. All inevitably came to a tragic end. In 1 Peter 5:5 we read, “…God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble…”

The Titanic was a symbol of everything man could achieve, and she was truly beautiful. But the people forgot God and even taunted God’s awesome power, boasting that: “God Himself could not sink this ship!” With all the latest innovations in ship-building technology, including 15 watertight doors, it was accepted as fact that Titanic really was unsinkable.

As we all know, God Himself could sink the Titanic, but no big storm or major “act of God” was needed. Once again, the arrogance of man was adequate to facilitate his undoing.

Titanic was brand new, shiny and strong, and this was her maiden voyage. Passengers enjoyed a tranquil crossing the first few days on their way to New York and, in fact, crew members remarked they had never seen the Atlantic more calm, the night tragedy struck.

On Sunday, April 14, 1912, Titanic was making excellent speed and most of the passengers spent the day indoors because the weather had turned suddenly cold. Captain Smith held church services that morning, which would have normally been followed by a lifeboat drill for passengers and crew, but on this day, there was no drill…after all, the ship was “unsinkable.”

As for the lifeboats, Titanic’s owners were so certain that the ship would never need them, they only included enough for less than half those on board, to make for a better looking, less crowded boat deck.

Iceberg warnings came in all day and evening but were generally ignored and Titanic pressed forward, speeding even faster toward disaster.

Perhaps what makes the story of the Titanic so sad and heart-rending is that the people involved were really no different than we are today. We can easily identify with them. If we were on a ship that was said to be “unsinkable,” would we feel it necessary to hold a lifeboat drill, or would we call it off if it was too cold outside?

Would we heed iceberg warnings if we “knew” our ship was unsinkable, or continue on with the party we were enjoying? Wealth, comfort and luxury can make people complacent, lulled into a false sense of security. We can become so full of ourselves that we feel we’re invincible. We can think all is well, when disaster is just around the corner. As First Thessalonians tells us, “When they shall say, ‘Peace and safety,’ then sudden destruction cometh upon them…and they shall not escape.”

In much the same way the people of Noah’s day were warned, and just as Sodom and Gomorrah were warned, and just as those on the Titanic were warned about the icebergs, we are warned about the consequences of complacency and indifference to sin — sin in the world and sin in our lives. We’re warned of the cost of living apart from God and without the salvation of Christ. But do we heed the warnings? Or do we continue on in comfort, luxury and ease, doing our own thing, ignoring God?

Disaster struck the Titanic at 11:40 pm, April 14, 1912, as she collided with the iceberg. Two hours later, she slipped beneath the sea, and has rested in a watery grave ever since…slowly disintegrating and disappearing into rust and dust.

When the unthinkable became obvious, Captain Smith ordered the crew to ready the lifeboats. But passengers were reluctant to leave the comfort of the gigantic ship for a 70-foot drop down to the dark ocean in a small, wooden boat. Even though there were only lifeboats enough for less than half those aboard, most left the ship more than half empty.

The rule was “women and children first,” but many of the ladies refused to leave without their husbands, and had to be forcibly picked up and placed in the boats. Families were torn apart, as women and children bid farewell to their husbands and fathers, who were not allowed into the lifeboats. Many of the wealthy on board refused to leave without their valuables and went back to collect their belongings from their staterooms — and in so doing, lost their only chance at survival. They didn’t realize the danger, and preferred to remain with their earthly “treasures.”

By the time the bow of the ship began to disappear beneath the surface of the water, it was too late for most.

Many of the third class passengers remained trapped below decks, separated from the rest of the ship by locked gates. When some of these finally made it to the boat decks, most of the lifeboats were gone — again, most launched more than half-empty — as hundreds remained on the ship with no hope for survival. Captain Smith, who was set to enjoy retirement after this last voyage, went down with the ship.

There are hundreds of inspiring and heartbreaking stories that are told of Titanic’s last moments…the band that kept playing until the end, to help calm the passengers and avoid a panic. The wealthy Mrs. Isador Strauss, who chose to stay and die with her husband, rather than leave without him. The hundreds who were left on board with all the lifeboats gone and no way to be rescued — women, young children and families alike.

1,517 people died that night in the frigid waters of the North Atlantic. Only 706 survived. Survivors in the boats were haunted by the screams of dying people in the water — now beyond salvation — for the rest of their lives. The screams slowly faded away, leaving only the sounds of sobbing widows and crying, now fatherless babies. When the sun rose the next morning, the survivors in the lifeboats had their first look at the harsh reality — hundreds upon hundreds of corpses, still wearing their life jackets, frozen to death or drowned. They were surrounded by icebergs, some more than 200 feet high. And Titanic, that symbol of man’s greatest achievement, was GONE.

A great many awe-inspiring artifacts have been brought up from the site of the wreck…things that help to tell the story, and remind us of what happened that night. We’ve seen pieces of the ship, personal belongings, even letters, menus, deck chairs and tickets. But can we grasp the real story here?

What can we learn from all this? We can learn to not trust in our wealth or the attractive things of this world…they’re only temporary. Trusting in worldly possessions is futile. After all, what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul? The consequences of pride and arrogance are always destruction.

As Christians, charged with the great commission, we are the “Captains” here. For the sake of our “passengers” — those we’re called to witness to, we can’t skip the lifeboat drills. We need to actively teach people there is a lifeboat (Jesus Christ) and lead them to it (by teaching the Gospel, and equipping them, as “crew members” for the work of the ministry). We must also reach out to the lost — those drowning in sin — and pull them into our boat.

And we need to heed the iceberg warnings, and keep our ship on a safe course. We need to be sensitive to the “icebergs” of temptation and unrepentance, because our eternal lives, and those of our passengers are at stake.

Satan would have us believe we’re “unsinkable,” and that there’s no need for a lifeboat. This is one of his greatest lies…not that there is no such thing as a lifeboat (God), but that there’s no rush, no sense of urgency. And that it’s much safer and more comfortable to stay aboard the ship of our own sinful desires, where we’re in “control.” It’s not just inconvenient — it’s scary — to put yourself in someone else’s hands and be lowered into a lifeboat that doesn’t look at all comfortable — or safe. But it really depends on Whose hands you’re talking about, doesn’t it?

Even though we’re hopelessly lost, with no way to save ourselves from eternal death, the Lord provided each and every one of us with a Lifeboat. The ship is going down, no question… “…it is appointed unto man once to die, and after this, the judgment.” (Hebrews 9:27).

But like those on the Titanic, people are still reluctant to get into the lifeboat. They feel much more comfortable where they are. They don’t realize they’re on a sinking ship, and the lifeboat is the only way to be saved…it’s very simple: “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life, and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life…” (John 3:36). There are only two choices: Get in the boat and live, or don’t get in the boat and die. It’s not complicated.

In THIS lifeboat there are enough seats for all of us, yet it remains more than half empty. And the boat is open to all — no third-class passengers trapped below decks…at the cross, Christ unlocked the gates and brought freedom and salvation to all who will seek Him. And this isn’t just for women and children! “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13).

In 1985, explorer Bob Ballard discovered the wreck of the Titanic, more than 12,000 feet beneath the ocean surface. Since then, exhibits of the ship’s remains have been available for the public to view. As a Titanic “fanatic,” I’ve been to many of those exhibits. I was even blessed to be present many years ago, when, at one of those museums, they sounded one of the ship’s sirens, recovered from the wreck — and thousands heard the sound of Titanic for the first time since 1912. In 1912, that very same whistle blew as she left port, in jubilance and celebration. Just a few days later, it blew as a dire warning of impending doom. Few heeded that warning then, and few heed God’s gracious and merciful call to mankind today.

The Lord isn’t willing that any should perish. God’s Lifeboat awaits you, but few there will be that find it. Today is the day of salvation. It’s time you got in the boat!

More of Hell Moving Into America

By Pastor Glynn Adams

April 13, 2025

Over the years, many, many pastors have attempted to wake up the dead religious churches in our nation by constantly reminding the church-goers they are to be obedient to the LORD Jesus Christ. These pretenders in our churches do not have good soil for the Kingdom of God and have no fruit so they have become a breeding place for religion, demons, demonic strongholds, deception, love of the world, and many church-goers show no fruit of being born from above. It is evident the religious in America do not like to talk about demons and the demonic spiritual world overtaking this nation. Religious people turn a blind eye to such Scriptures that command us to resist the evil in this nation. Most church-goers in America have no idea that one-third of the ministry of Jesus Christ on this earth was dealing with demons, demonic sickness, and demonic destruction of the human body. So in Matthew 12:26, Jesus is dealing with the religious leaders of His day after they accuse Him of having a demon so it is no great surprise that out of the mouth of Jesus came these words, “If Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?”

The reason the religious leaders in Jesus’ day did not deal with demons nor cast out demons is because they were a part of the religious kingdom of Satan. The reason most of our churches in America ignore Satan and refuse to deal with demons and cast out demons is because most of America’s churches are part of Satan’s religious kingdom. Jesus told the religious leaders in Matthew 12:28, “But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the Kingdom of God has come upon you. Most churches in America are not part of the Kingdom of God but will work to expand the religious Kingdom of Satan in America.

It is clear that the fruit of the American Church is from the Kingdom of Satan and not the Kingdom of God. Because someone says they are a Christian does not mean they are Christians. “You will know them by their fruit.” The fruit of our religious institutions that man has built in America is hell and the ways of hell. This explains why the religious church in America is so silent. Our American churches do not cast out Satan because Satan does not cast out Satan. America now has more false religious churches, evil spirits, demons, demonic strongholds, rulers, spiritual forces of wickedness, high places, and false prophets than any nation in this world by far. America’s false religion is causing our nation to reap a nightmare harvest of religious hell and Satanic ways.

Most of you say Jesus is your LORD but your actions do not prove that. Your in-action correctly tell of your falling away from the living God and that He is not your Lord! For years now the American Church has been tolerating evil and has remained silent when the demonic systems of this world invaded our nation. The Christian Community was warned in 1963 that Communists/Marxists agents from the Frankfurt School in New York had declared war on Christianity in America, our morality, our family structure, our children, and the American Church totally ignored the warnings. But don’t take my word!!! Look at the church in America today as the enemies of Christ exalt themselves against the Word of God and so-called Christians are silent and remain in their safe zones. When the enemies of God said that God was not Creator and that man evolved, the church in America was silent and did not practice the Lordship of Christ in our nation. When the enemies of God assaulted our Christian values and our moral compass, Christians in America remained silent and did not practice the Lordship of Christ in our nation.

In recent years, when the enemies of Christ begin to change the meaning of our language, the false church in America did not respond with the truth of God’s Word. When the enemies of God began to assault the gender of men and women, and thousands of people, young and old, were mutilated by evil surgeons and the American Church did not proclaim the Word of God that God created male and female. No! Our actions proved that so-called Christians were church-goers and not Christians at all. We fell away from the living God and were silent. We were silent during the homosexual revolution, the sexual revolution, and when the enemies of God took the Bible, His laws, and prayer out of our culture, the demonic church of Satan in America remained silent and would not fight to get them back. Why not? – Satan does not cast out Satan!!! Jesus said, “You will know them by their fruit.”

Even at this hour the American Church is silent when the enemies of God go on the internet, social media, television, movies, and late night talk shows and rail assaults against our Christian morality, the Word of God, and God Himself and the American Church is silent and remain in their safe zones. No, those who claim to be Christians, your actions do not line up with the Word of God. Jesus said those who hear the Word of God but do not act on it, build their houses on the sand and today, the storms of life are destroying home after home in this nation. Jesus said, “You will know them by their fruit.” So-called Christians in America, God has your number. You fool a lot of people but you don’t fool God!!! God knows who your real father is!!!!! If you were of Jesus, you would be doing the deeds of Jesus!!! Jesus said to the religious in Mathew 12:30, “He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.”

There is a reason it is so important that Christians who make Jesus their LORD and resist the evil before them. In the 1600s when the Puritans and Pilgrims were coming to America to escape severe religious persecution in England while at the same time Sir Francis Bacon, a demonic occultist and Satan worshipper was working in secret bringing occultist to America promising them that America would be the New Atlantis, an occult utopia. When the Christians found out about this secret evil plan, they “aggressively resisted the Sir Bacon forces of evil” while influencing the Founding Fathers to give them a Constitution with inalienable rights from God to protect the citizens against ruthless governments. This story has been lost in history until Paul McGuire recently discovered it in his research. What a contrast between the Christians in 1600 and so-called Christians today in America!! Without Christians resisting the evil before them in 1600, America would not have our Constitution and our rights from God. Because so-called Christians are not resisting the evil in this nation today, we are losing our Constitution and rights from God. The moral of this story is simple – those who resist evil are Christians and those who do not are lost.

The time for playing religious games in our churches in America is over. If you say Jesus is your LORD, you must bring forth fruit that shows it. To be a pretender, is mocking God. God is not mocked; whatsoever you sow that shall you reap. We have tried to fool God long enough. Judgment is for those who claim to be a Christian but their life and fruit show something else. Yes, the time of church pretenders are over. “Those who hate the LORD would pretend obedience to Him and their time of punishment would be forever!” (Psalm 81:15)

Every day, every minute, every second, something is telling me to quit, to back off, chill out, ease up – things will get better. Even now God is shaking everything that can be shaken. No things will not get better until Christians change their thinking and get back to obedience to our LORD Jesus Christ. In America, with all our freedoms, Christians do just about anything we please. We wrap it in our religion and the Name of Jesus but it has gotten us into one big spiritual mess. Only Jesus and our obedience to Him will get us out of this spiritual mess. You can believe that and become part of the solution – or we may perish as a nation. God bless I remain His warrior servant and watchman, Glynn Adams

Texas Under Siege: The Stealth Islamic Takeover We Can’t Ignore

By: Amil Imani

April 12, 2025

Texas, the Lone Star State, a bastion of freedom, faith, and rugged individualism, is facing a threat that chills the blood of every patriot who calls this land home. Reports are mounting – whispers turning into roars – that Islamic influence is creeping into our state, not through open conquest, but through an insidious, calculated expansion that threatens the very soul of Texas. The latest flashpoint? The East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) and its sprawling 402-acre “EPIC City” project in Collin County are now under investigation by the Texas State Securities Board for potential fraud and violations of state law. This isn’t just about one development – it’s a wake-up call to a broader, more sinister agenda that demands our attention and fury.

Story continues below advertisement

Governor Greg Abbott didn’t mince words when he declared on February 24, 2025, “Sharia law is not allowed in Texas. Nor are Sharia cities. Nor are ‘no-go zones,’ which this project seems to imply.” Damn right, Governor! The EPIC City plan – a massive compound complete with a mosque, Islamic school, and residential community – has raised red flags across the state. Critics, including the fearless Amy Mek of the RAIR Foundation, have sounded the alarm, calling it a “walled-off Islamic community built around Sharia, not American values.” Now, with the Texas State Securities Board investigating allegations of investor fraud, the stench of deception is impossible to ignore. Are they fleecing Texans to fund this enclave? We demand answers!

But this isn’t an isolated incident; it’s part of a pattern – a slow, deliberate push to plant Islamic roots deep in Texas soil. Look at the facts: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced on March 25, 2025, that his office is probing EPIC for potential violations of consumer protection laws. Just a day later, the Texas Funeral Service Commission slapped EPIC with a cease-and-desist order for running unlicensed funeral operations. Twelve state agencies are now circling this project, sniffing out illegal activity tied to what Abbott calls a “controversial Islamic housing development.” This isn’t a neighborhood; it’s a fortress, a self-contained bubble that critics fear could operate outside Texas law, thumbing its nose at our Constitution.

And it’s not just Plano. In Frisco, the Islamic Center of Quad Cities (ICQC) is flexing its muscle, snapping up 5.7 acres at a prime intersection and raising $2.4 million in mere months to build a mega-mosque. Construction’s already underway, with keynote speakers like Mohamad Baajour from EPIC stoking the flames at fundraisers. RAIR Foundation warns this is part of a nationwide “Hijrah” strategy – migration to establish Islamic dominance in non-Muslim lands. Sound far-fetched? Tell that to the folks in Josephine, Texas, where EPIC’s Yasir Qadhi envisions “EPIC Ranches,” peddling a utopian Muslim community with clinics, stores, and maybe even a university – all financed by “Islamic loans.” Who’s footing the bill for this takeover? Texans deserve to know!

The numbers don’t lie. Texas is home to nearly 500,000 Muslims – 1.7% of our population – and this number is growing rapidly. Dallas has been dubbed the “Medina of America” by some Islamic leaders, a reference to the Prophet Muhammad’s stronghold. Over 60 Sunni and five Shia mosques are spread across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex alone, with organizations like the Islamic Association of North Texas and the Muslim Legal Fund of America establishing their presence in Richardson. Houston boasts over 209 mosques, making it the area with the largest Muslim population in the South. This isn’t assimilation – it’s colonization, plain and simple.

Now, let’s be clear: every Muslim in Texas is under suspicion unless they openly, loudly, and unequivocally denounce these schemes to plant Sharia roots in our state. Silence isn’t enough – loyalty to Texas and its values must be proven, not assumed.

When projects like EPIC City flaunt Sharia vibes and dodge state laws, it is a slap in the face to every Texan who cherishes our way of life. Governor Abbott is right – “All entities in Texas must follow state law, not Sharia law.” Yet the EPIC crowd claims it’s a “diverse community open to all.” Spare us the platitudes! If it’s so innocent, why the secrecy, the fraud probes, the funeral violations? Why the whispers of “no-go zones” where American values might not apply?

This is a fight for Texas’ soul. Our state’s history is forged in blood and defiance – think San Jacinto, think the Texas Rangers. We don’t bow to foreign creeds or let our laws be trampled. The left will cry “Islamophobia,” but this isn’t about hate – it’s about survival. When Islamic centers skirt regulations, hoard land, and push for a parallel society, it’s not bigotry to call it out – it’s patriotism. X posts are buzzing with outrage, with users like KamVTV thanking Paxton for stepping up and warning of “Islamic compounds” led by those who “don’t like the West.” They’re not wrong to worry.

We can’t allow Texas to become a testing ground for Sharia. Our leaders – Abbott, Paxton, and every red-blooded lawmaker – must combat this stealth invasion with every tool available to them. Investigations are a starting point, but we need action: shut down these projects, enforce our laws, and send a message that Texas will never bend the knee. This is our land, our heritage, our fight.

Rise up, Texans – before it’s too late!

Rudyard Kipling and the Power Elite

By Dennis Cuddy, Ph.D.

April 12, 2025

In Volume 1 of my Conspiracy series, Cecil Rhodes is on the cover. He founded the secret Society of the Elect in 1891 to take over the world. The ultimate goal was to have Rhodes Scholar Bill Clinton as president. Did you ever wonder why Southern Baptist Clinton from Arkansas would go to a Jesuit university like Georgetown? It is because Secretary of State John Foster Dulles’ son Avery (a Catholilc Cardinal) was there, and Bill Clinton’s mentor Prof. Carroll Quigley who wrote Tragedy and Hope was also there. The “tragedy” was that average American was in charge of the government. Quigley’s “hope” was that elite would control government as the philosopher kings in Plato’s Republic. Greek philosopher Solon had gone to the priests at the temple of Isis in Sais, Egypt, who told him about Atlantis (see the MacGyver movie The Lost Treasure of Atlantis). Plato mentored Socrates who mentored Aristotle who tutored Alexander the Great.

Alexander went marauding eastward from Macedonia, but he was also looking for the “secret knowledge” of the survivors of Atlantis (as did Heinrich Himmler). When he got to the wall surrounding India he met a superior army which repulsed Alexander, who was wounded and taken back to Macedonia. Rudyard Kipling was a member of the Rhodes Trust and spent a lot of time in India and wrote The Man Who Would Be King. The movie by that title starred Sean Connery and Michael Caine. (Kipling’s book in the 1890s had left angle Hindu swastikas on them). When the head of the monks (who were descended from the the original Aryans who were the only survivors of Atlantis) saw Connery and Caine, he was going to kill them until he saw a medallion around Connery’s neck and said it was just like the medallion Alexander the Great had given them thousands of years earlier.

Hitler reversed the swastika to right angles and there is an ornate rug in a Christian chapel in the U.S. with 44 small swastikas (22 left angle and 22 right angle) on it.

Hitler’s name was Adolph Schicklgruber, and in the 1890s his parents placed him in a Benedictine monastery that had left angle swastikas all over it. There, he met a weird Cistercian monk who introduced him to the Thule (another name for Aryan) Society which taught him to mesmerize large crowds of people saying, “Deutschland Uber Alles” (German over All).

The Power Elite’s plan to take over the world about 200 years ago used a dialectical process. America was a young independent Republic (not a Democracy). The antithesis of America would be Communism, so they created Karl Marx’s Manifesto. The synthesis would be a World Socialist Government, but before that could happen, each nation would first have to become Socialist, and that is what the word Nazi means (National Socialist Worker’s Party). So they created Hitler’s rule. Today we have both the Secret Nazi Plan (taking over the world) and the Secret Communist Plan (taking over the world’s culture) including art, music, dance and sex – that’s why in Aldous Huzley’s 1930’s Brave New World there was a sex pill called “soma,” and why today there’s a lot of explicit and implicit sex in movies and on TV.

South Africa Needs all the Products and Transportation fuels that Renewables CANNOT provide

Co-authored by Ronald Stein, Dr. Robert Jeffrey and Olivia Vaughan

April 11, 2025

Today, policymakers setting “green” policies are oblivious to the reality that so-called “renewables”, ONLY generate electricity but CANNOT make anything.

Oil, coal, and gas are foundation to the global economy, contributing to thousands of products—estimated at over 6,000—that underpin modern living standards. These fossil fuels drive economic activity by providing energy and raw materials for industries, transportation, and manufacturing, while their derivatives permeate everyday life, from plastics to medicines.

• Electricity came AFTER oil, as ALL electrical generation methods from hydro, coal, natural gas, nuclear, wind, and solar are ALL built with the products, components, and equipment that are made from the oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil,
• All EV’s, solar panels, and wind turbines are also built with the products, components, and equipment that are made from the oil derivatives manufactured from crude oil.
• All transportation fuels for cars, trucks, merchant ships, aircraft, and military are made from refined crude oil.
• Getting rid of crude oil would eliminate electricity, and all the products that need electricity to operate, and ground all transportation!

The IEA Oil Market Report – March 2025 forecasts global oil demand reaching 103.9 million barrels per day (mb/d) in 2025, up 1 mb/d from 2024, with non-combusted uses (e.g., plastics, chemicals) growing from 15 mb/d in 2022 to 20 mb/d by 2050 (BP).

US Energy Secretary Chris Wright affirmed that Africa must be free to harness its vast energy resources without interference. NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber says Secretary Wright’s message is a long-overdue recognition that Africa needs investment, not interference. “Africa’s energy future must be decided in Africa, not dictated by foreign governments pushing policies that undermine our economic potential. The AEC welcomes this shift in U.S. policy and calls on African leaders to capitalize on this moment by accelerating oil and gas development, creating jobs and driving industrialization.”

Contributions to Living Standards

These products profoundly enhance living standards by powering modern infrastructure, mobility, and health. Transportation fuels the logistics that deliver EVERYTHING that people need to live productive and prosperous lives. The IEA Oil Market Report – March 2025 notes Asia, led by China, accounts for 60% of 2025 demand growth, driven by petrochemical feedstocks critical for plastics and fertilizers.

Plastics improve food preservation and healthcare affordability (e.g., medical devices 30-50% cheaper than alternatives), while gas-derived fertilizers boost crop yields by 50%, feeding half the world’s population. Coal’s role in steel and cement supports urban housing for 4 billion people, and synthetic fabrics (oil-based) cut clothing costs by 20-30%, benefiting billions. Pharmaceuticals from petrochemicals have historically extended life expectancy, and lubricants enhance industrial efficiency, stabilizing supply chains.

Since 1900, fossil fuel products have doubled living standards by enabling industrialization and access to goods.

South Africa’s Energy Mix

The green factions are becoming louder in South Africa as their funding dries up from sources such as USAID and the JET. China is laughing all the way to the bank, building 95 GW of new coal and manufacturing subsidized renewables using products made from oil and ethically questionable rare earth minerals.

This while President Donald Trump has vowed to reboot the US coal industry to counter the economic advantage China has gained: “After years of being held captive by Environmental Extremists, Lunatics, Radicals, and Thugs, allowing other Countries, in particular China, to gain tremendous Economic advantage over us by opening up hundreds of all Coal Fire Power Plants, I am authorizing my Administration to immediately begin producing Energy with BEAUTIFUL, CLEAN COAL,” President Trump wrote on social media platform Truth Social.

Equally concerning is the refining capability and gas cliff situation in South Africa, as Sasol projects the LNG supply from Mozambique to run dry by 2027. Sasol’s CTL process exemplifies coal’s added value, producing synthetic fuels and chemicals, contributing over $10 billion yearly to South Africa’s economy and supporting 30,000 jobs. Why would the country not exploit the opportunity to make use of its rich coal supplies, and further reduce its reliance on imported refined products.

Local petrol, diesel, jet fuel and gas (LNG) prices are exacerbated by USD/ZAR exchange volatility and drastic price increases in refined fuel products will immediately put inflationary pressure on consumers. South Africa currently only has two operating refineries left, Astron in the Western Cape and Natref in Gauteng (Interior). The rest have been mothballed or shut.

The South African State owned utility, Eskom with its coal fleet, earned the Best Power Company in the world in 2001, but has since been hollowed out by failed policies, corruption and mismanagement. Coal still provides over 80% of South Africa’s energy supply, but it has been under extreme pressure from the EU and other pro-renewables organizations to transition to purely renewables that can only generate electricity but CANNOT make any products or fuels. This is simply not an option for South Africa. It will lead to the continuation of the rolling blackouts that the country has been facing, despite 14 years of an extensive Renewable Independent Power Producer program that has cost billions of dollars.

The so-called “renewables”, ONLY generate electricity but CANNOT make anything. Thus, the country needs all the Products and Transportation fuels that Renewables CANNOT provide, along with Nuclear Power stations. This is the only viable option that will lead to a fair and equitable chance to prosperity for the 62 million in South Africa, and the 1.2 billion people living in Sub-Saharan Africa who rely on essential goods and services.

How a Conservation Easement Ruined the Owner of a 4th-Generation Farm

By Kathleen Marquardt

April 11, 2025

First, the story and then I have added background so you might understand why, what, and whom all this came from. The story, straight from the victim’s mouth will be in italics.

Just because a group calls itself environmental does not mean that it is wise, or even knowledgeable about how to conserve land. This story is about how the environmentalists got it wrong, and, to make things worse, unjustly bankrupted and deliberately punished an honest and dedicated conservationist. It gives new meaning to the term eco-terrorism.

The environmental group Scenic Hudson professes to have a lofty goal – protecting the Hudson River Valley from development. However, the tactics they are using aren’t so lofty. In fact, their approach is that of a bully or predator.

An innocent and well-meaning retired widow in upstate New York may be the latest – but not the only – victim. Her case demonstrates just how litigious, unreasonable, and poorly informed Scenic Hudson bureaucrats are, and it raises questions about Scenic Hudson’s agenda and ultimate goal.

Anne Hohenstein’s family settled on the Hudson River south of Albany, NY, four generations (~100 years) ago. Anne’s grandmother and Anne’s infant daughter are buried in the small family graveyard on the property, near an old farmhouse and barn, where Hohenstein and her family kept horses and goats. A former environmental lawyer, Anne was taught by her grandmother to revere the land and the beautiful Hudson River.

Maintaining the land in its native state is important to Anne as is continuing to farm the fields near the forest. She enjoys country life and finds it peaceful and inspiring.

In 2012 Scenic Hudson purchased an easement – an easement, not the land – to her family property on the Hudson River in New Baltimore, New York, from Anne and her siblings for $258,850. The property is a collection of parcels – pieces of a historic fruit farm – composed of forests and agricultural fields mostly held by family trusts.

The easement protects undeveloped property from future development. It requires the landowner to protect the Hudson River Valley, with its native species, and bans mechanical vehicles except on existing farm roads. Trying to do just that is what got Anne in trouble with the environmentalists.

Scenic Hudson repeatedly urged landowners to work as partners with Scenic Hudson, the easement holder, to protect the open spaces along the Hudson River. Everyone started out as just that, partners, because the landowners wanted the same thing. Soon, however, the landowners became the vassals and Scenic Hudson the despot.

Anne fully embraced her ancestors’ desire to preserve the land. Her grandmother, a biologist who attended Russell Sage, knew decades ago that open space in the Hudson River Valley would soon be at a premium, especially on the west side of the river. She specifically asked her granddaughter to protect her legacy by protecting the land from development and by promoting agriculture and science. Anne made that promise, and the easement requires her to do just that – preserve Hudson Valley land in its natural state.

Anne said, “Scenic Hudson disagrees with our interpretation (of the easement). They are seeking to crush me, punitively, without acknowledging the science of the situation, which is that the forest is healthier now, except for damage by Scenic Hudson after the cut.”

In an effort to comply with this goal in the best way possible, Anne asked the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to develop a forest management plan. A DEC forester visited the property and advised her that the forest of mostly native hardwoods was long overdue for a protective cut.

He said there were dead and dying trees, some invasive species, some trees that were preventing the regrowth of younger, healthier trees, and trees that could pose a danger to people enjoying using the forest (hunters, birdwatchers, hikers, etc.). A protective cut culls dead, dying, and dangerous trees in order to permit regrowth of native trees.

When the landowner approached Scenic Hudson about the issue, an easement manager (not a professional forester) said the cut could not be done because the easement did not permit it. However, the easement document does not specifically prohibit a protective cut. What it does prohibit is new building, new roads, or any kind of development.

The landowner took the issue to the conservation manager’s bosses. One returned her call to say that Scenic Hudson would like to help but acknowledged that the group no longer had a professional forester on staff.

Who to believe – DEC or Scenic Hudson’s conservation manager? The landowner hired a professional forester recommended by the DEC to help her decide. He concurred with the DEC analysis. The landowner then hired a local reputable logger forester. The project took several months in order to do it carefully, without causing collateral damage.

Just as the logger’s work was finishing, a stop work order was posted, and Scenic Hudson sued the family trust and the landowner, both as the trustee and personally, for “damage” to the forest and violation of the easement.

Scenic Hudson is seeking restoration, planting of new trees, legal fees, payment for the value of the trees removed, and other damages. The lawsuit seeks more than half a million dollars in damages. This amount is significantly more than the value of the property.

The retired landowner hired an attorney and a professional forester, and together they provided ample technical evidence that the forest is now much healthier than it was before the cut. Scenic Hudson claims to have done its own post-cut “restoration” work, which was performed poorly and at excessive cost. The retired landowner said that she would undertake the restoration work. Scenic Hudson refused.

Scenic Hudson claims costs well over $650,000 and wants the landowner to pay for it but has provided no backup or evidence to support the purported work. The landowner has already incurred more than $100,000 of her own money in legal fees trying to resolve this dispute, and the bill is growing. On the advice of counsel, Anne was finally forced to file bankruptcy.

A trial on Scenic Hudson’s suit was set to begin July 17, 2023, but was postponed until April 2025. Scenic Hudson and the landowner have had some settlement conferences, but the “offer” was for Anne to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars (which she does not have.) is not a genuine attempt to settle.

Basically, Scenic Hudson forced Anne into bankruptcy and now seeks to gain control of her land – all because Anne was trying to be a caretaker for the land and to follow expert guidance. She wasn’t developing the land; she was preserving it.

Scenic Hudson clearly is a bully, an eco-terrorist, and is trying to force this landowner and her family to give up all of their rights while masquerading behind a façade of do-gooder environmentalism. Anne is not the only landowner to suffer from the group’s aggressive and punitive actions. Her elderly next door neighbor, who, like Anne’s family, has been farming and protecting his family’s land for generations, has also been a target.

He is suffering from a brain tumor, but the same Scenic Hudson conservation easement manager, acting unprofessionally; harassed, disrespected, and ignored him. For minor alleged easement violations, he was pursued by Scenic Hudson. It turned out the landowner was right and Scenic Hudson was wrong, yet Scenic Hudson made him pay its legal fees.

This neighbor may be reluctant to talk to the press because he is afraid of Scenic Hudson and the arbitrary use of its power. These are not wealthy landowners. They are hard-working, ordinary people trying to preserve land from development, not profit from it.
Their land is still farmed, and they work hard to maintain their land.

Is the Scenic Hudson goal to protect the land or to force the landowners to give up their family land? Is this conservation or retaliation? This is conservation gone wrong. This looks like eco-terrorism.

It not only looks like eco-terrorism, it is.

Background (thanks to Robert Powell)

– 1892 – Departments in Univ. of Chicago, Columbia Univ., Univ. of Wisconsin with E.A. Ross who has career full of Socio-communist relations. Ross’s book “Social Control” (1901) is the textbook teaching how a few can gain control over Society. Albin W. Small, first Chair, taught Sociology as History, Economics, and Political Science. This Department and Albin W. Small were funded by Rockefeller Foundation.

– 1908 – Philanthropic Foundations entered, along with the Federal Reserve. Creating false economics and third-party funding of subversive activities, via social cover. Alger Hiss was President of Carnegie Foundation. Rockefeller Foundation funded Sociology Chair Albin W. Small at Univ. of Chicago. The idea is: There is crime in the Slums, therefore slums cause crime-eliminate Slums, eliminate crime. Guilt by Association.

– 1913 – Roscoe Pound, Saint-Simon. Socialized Law substitutes appointed Administrators for judicial Law. This to adjust social interests over the individual rights. Supreme Court Justice Frankfurter spoke about “throughgoing overturning” of society. It must be done from the outside and translated by those in office.

– 1913 – Or, as the old Red dictum goes, “Communism must be built with non-Communist hands.” To engage the non-Communist dupes in these endeavors, though, requires rhetorical camouflage and deception. A prime example of this rhetorical treachery can be found in the judicial revolution launched in 1913 with the Conference on Legal and Social Philosophy organized by Fabian Socialists Harold Laski, John Dewey, Morris Cohen, and Roscoe Pound. Cohen’s son, Felix, later boasted that it is from this conference that “much of the social and philosophical consciousness of modern American jurisprudence derives.” Felix Cohen openly proclaimed; It is impossible to attempt overthrow of Capitalism as an economic system without at the same time attacking the substance of capitalist law. As well, the Federal Reserve pushed it through Congress. In order to carry this out, Taft had to be defeated. Rockefeller & Morgan bought up 159 News Corporations, while J.P. Morgan financed the Roosevelt “Bull Moose” vote splitting campaign.

– 1916 – Dewey & Education 1916 – Socialist Leader John Dewey’s Textbook still used today, Dewey said dependency is a power, individuality an illness. There-upon the sane are insane, the dependent is sane, as he needs the community. The collective is the norm. In 1934 ( L.I.D. ) League for Industrial Democracy had student groups in 150 colleges.

Texas AG Ken Paxton Running For US Senate to Unseat Treasonous Texas RINO

By Amil Imani

April 10, 2025

Hon. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton,

On behalf of the fiercely loyal Texas voters who have elected you three times—drawn to your unblemished record, relentless service, and ironclad conservative principles—I extend my heartfelt congratulations and unwavering support as you launch your campaign for the U.S. Senate. Texas doesn’t just need another senator; we need a warrior, and you, General Paxton, are the most qualified leader to answer that call.

Your career is a testament to honor, courage, and an unshakable commitment to the Lone Star State. It takes guts to confront our enemies—whether they’re radical leftists or spineless so-called “allies” within our own ranks. You’ve repeatedly proven that you’ll fight for what’s right, no matter who comes at you. We’ve seen this alongside Senator Ted Cruz and President Trump, both battered by the Deep State for daring to defy the swamp. You’ve stood tall with them, fearlessly confronting Biden’s tyrannical abuse of power and the illegal imposition of same-sex marriage against the will of Texans.

Politics is a brutal game, and your enemies—emboldened by jealousy and desperation—would love nothing more than to see you torn apart. Yet, your tireless campaign and crystal-clear vision have rallied the electorate around you. Texans know you’re not just the best person for the Attorney General’s office—you’re the only one we can trust to combat Washington’s corruption as our next senator. We will not let you face this defining battle alone.

America is under siege, not just from foreign threats but from a calculated, treasonous takeover within our own borders. The public is being manipulated through market rigging, monopolistic mergers, and the suffocating grip of Big Tech’s information cartels. This isn’t just greed—it’s sedition. You’ve already demonstrated your resolve by wielding antitrust laws to dismantle these schemes and protect our sovereignty. Texas needs that same ferocity in the Senate.

General Paxton, your legacy is forged in the fire of conservative conviction. You’ve addressed voter fraud head-on when others cowered, shielded Texas from the federal government’s suffocating overreach, and defended the bedrock of our Republic against all odds. Meanwhile, John Cornyn—our current senator—has proven himself utterly ineffective. He’s a globalist sellout who’s spent years idly watching, doing nothing for Texas while cozying up to the D.C. elite. Cornyn has failed us miserably, and it’s time to send him packing.

As President Trump has warned, “They’re not after me; they’re after you. I’m just in the way.” The same applies to you, General Paxton. The radical Democrats and their RINO enablers fear you because you stand in their path. Texas demands a senator who will fight, not fold—and John Cornyn has folded every chance he’s had.

I wish you strength and victory on this critical journey to defend America, our Constitution, and the values that make Texas great. You’re not just running to replace Cornyn—you’re running to bury his failed tenure and restore authentic leadership to the Senate. Texans stand with you, ready to unseat that ineffective relic and send our strongest conservative champion to Washington.

Sincerely,

Amil Imani

Infiltration, Not Invasion

By Coach Dave Daubenmire

April 10, 2025

John F. Kennedy tried to warn us. It cost him his life. Watch.

Eisenhower did too…on his way out of the door. Here.

But the Bible was the first one to warn us that “evil men have crept in unawares and changed the Truth of God into a lie.”

America HAS been invaded. Evil men HAVE crept in and now occupy some of the most powerful seats of once-Christian America. A quick review of The Scriptures will find multiple references to the SPIRIT WAR that has now moved into the natural realm.

The Book of Ephesians warns us “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.”

Would it be safe to say that we are seeing the manifestation of evil like no time in recorded history? Are we foolish enough to believe that this is simply a POLITICAL battle? Do we not understand that this is a SPIRITUAL manifestation of the Bible into the natural world? The heart of man is the target, and individual souls are the prize.

When will the American Church wake the hell up?

Psalm 2 tells us: The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

It is the ultimate conspiracy…but far more than a theory…the EARTHY KINGS (leaders) are working together to overthrow the Kingdom of God. It is the job of the CHURCH (Body of Christ) to establish HIS rule HERE on Earth.

Remember the Lord’s prayer you learned as a young child…THY KINGDOM COME…THY WILL BE DONE…ON EARTH! “Occupy til I come…” that is His Command. Why are God’s people so unwilling to “earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered to the Saints” Jude?

The American church has become so Heavenly conscious that we are no earthly good!

In 1947 the SCOTUS issued the first of many wicked decisions in Everson V Board when the terrorists-in-Black-Robes declared that Jesus was no longer King over America. Over 200 years of Christian tradition was jettisoned to the backseat of the American bus as the foundation of ALL American Government was uprooted and replace with the religion of Humanism.

Evil men had crept in…and no one noticed. Today we fight against the un-Godley forces of darkness.

Currently, in the middle of the ever-expanding information age, it is possible for an American child to complete 13 years of public indoctrination and never hear a word about the central figure of Western Civilization…the man by whom ALL time is measured…around the world…every country…every religion…every nation.

Anyyone who signs a paycheck, writes a check, or keeps a journal DAILY, records that this is year 2025. Why 2025? 2025 years from what? AD…anno Domini…Latin for “the year of our Lord.” BC…before Christ. All time measured by the acknowledgement of the arrival of Jesus Christ.

You are more likely to hear the history of Genghis Khan in your public-school history book than you are the life and impact of the King of Kings…the Man by whom all time is measured.

The Kings referenced in Psalm 2 have infiltrated and taken control of the schools…the family…the government…and now the churches….

Today, we stand at the crossroads and history will record what we did in this critical moment in Western Civilization. Did we stand and fight, or did we cower in the corner as the Kings of the Earth herded us into the safety of our churches, wearing a mask of course, where we hid from the enemy…afraid to obey the command of the Bible…

“Have nothing to do with the unfruitful works of darkness but rather expose them…” We are the light of the world. The job of light is to expose what is happening in the darkness. Cowering in the safety of our stained-glassed fortresses is not what our Savior had in mind.

I don’t know where we stand in Bible eschatology. Neither do you. But we do know that Jesus told us to Occupy…not hide…until He comes. We are least like our Savior when we are afraid. The KING doesn’t think highly of the cowardly.

“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

“The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.” Is there really a difference between the two political parties? Where are the men of God?

Infiltration…not invasion. It happened on OUR watch. For God’s sake, Christian. Stand up and speak up.

“For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.” Romans 8.

Will we answer the call? The world is waiting on us.

Raging Against Old Age: Tripping Into the Vicinity of Getting Old

By Frosty Wooldridge

April 10, 2025

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

In my front room, I enjoy a large cabinet with a “Memory Shelf” of 55 years of adventures across six continents. Pictures and little things collected along the way. Water collected from the snows of Antarctica. Indian vases. Chinese dolls. Japanese cup. Argentine bolo balls. Bicycling in the Amazon Rainforest. Pacific-Atlantic water bottles from bike trips across the USA coast to coast. Statue from Greece. Sandi and Frosty sailing. Backpacking the Grand Canyon. Boomerang from Australia. Shell from Galapagos Islands. Needles in a packet from 2,500 year old redwood. Bamboo walking stick from Nepal Trekking. Leaning Tower of Pizza. Bicycling by the Coliseum in Rome. Standing on the Parthenon, Greece.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

And, my own thoughts—Spirit of Adventure

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

Karl Marx Was a Global Free Trader

By Cliff Kincaid

April 9, 2025

In the rhetorical battle between Peter Navarro and Elon Musk, I choose Navarro. The influential Trump adviser produced the great film, Death By China: How America Lost Its Manufacturing Base, back in 2012, when Musk was making cars in China and currying favor with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Musk is a smart man but he is a Johnny-come-lately regarding the communist threat. He came to acknowledge the threat of Cultural Marxism when one of his own children was captured by the trans movement. He came from South Africa but only realized it went communist after he was out of the country and saw it implementing communist policies at home and abroad.

By contrast, Navarro emerged in Trump’s first and second terms as a spokesman for the established fact that Red China was looting our economy to achieve world domination. Navarro, formerly a professor of economics and public policy at the Paul Merage School of Business at the University of California, Irvine, understood the national security implications when Elon Musk was supporting Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012 and Hillary Clinton in 2016.

Like typical communists, the CCP lied, cheated, and stole from our people and their businesses. Just recently, they stole my medical records from the Frederick Health medical group. They also infiltrated our nuclear weapons labs so they can use our technology to build their own weapons pointed at us.

Yet, on the national business channels we see a steady stream of stooges of the financial elite attacking President Trump for fighting back.

I long for the day when the great Lou Dobbs was on Fox Business and writing such books as The Trump Century (2020), a defense of his pro-American economic policies. He passed away last year and is not here to see President Trump, in his second term, taking on the CCP.

I am old enough to remember when CNN was a respectable network and had Lou Dobbs as an anchor, where he tackled such issues as a proposed globalist “North American Union,” integrating Mexico and Canada with the Unted States, with me as a guest. Lou sounded the alarm about bad trade deals such as NAFTA and the prospect of regional and world government. He was a breath of fresh air in a corrupt corporate media culture.

This is a war for our national survival, and Navarro is on the right side of history. Having been proven right and going to prison because of his loyalty to Trump, Navarro has Trump’s ear on trade, resulting in the 104 percent tariffs on the communist giant now going into effect. Trump is making good on his promise to make China pay for stealing our jobs and technology and inflicting the deadly China virus on America and the world.

Musk should stick to DOGE. He has no expertise on the China threat.

Most of the talking heads on the business channels and financial shows never describe China as “communist” in any way and act horrified that America has a president who wants to save America from the CCP. On CNBC, for example, host Scott Wapner calls the tariffs a “self-inflicted crisis” by President Trump, ignoring how so-called “free trade” has been a communist Chinese weapon for decades.

Wapner and his associates seem not to understand that when they advocate “global free trade,” they are taking the side of Karl Marx, the father of communism and a global free trader. This is an untold story.

So-called “free trade” is supposed to be “free,” and freedom is associated with capitalism. What many do not realize is that Marx believed that total communist control at the global level was supposed to be achieved through stages of economic development, with global capitalism and global free trade being necessary for socialism and then communism to emerge as triumphant.

The role of the Marxists is to accelerate this process of development, through the exploitation of class and now sexual and other differences. Such a role helps explain the conflict and turmoil we see across the globe, including in the U.S.

If you are perplexed by big corporations making deals with China, it makes sense to Marxists. These are prime examples of what the Marxists call the highest stage of capitalism. It means old-fashioned capitalism is finished and is being replaced by monopoly capitalism and the power of what is called “finance capital,” the hedge funds and big banks, and the top 10 percent of Americans who own 88 percent of the stock market.

When the global capitalists looked at China, they didn’t see an adversary; they saw a market and cheap labor.

In effect, major engines of corporate capitalism have become prime movers of the historical process of moving a country from capitalism into socialism.

Marx declared his support for free trade while giving a lecture on England’s corn laws, a set of tariffs and restrictions on the import and export of grain in Great Britain. Marx explained that “The system of free trade is destructive. It dissolves the old nationality and drives towards extreme antagonism between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. In a word the system of free trade hastens social revolution.” He called free trade a “revolutionary” force in human history.

In 2022, Trump recognized that communism didn’t end with the fall of the Berlin Wall and said in a speech, “…we will fight the onslaught of radicalism, socialism, and indeed it all leads to communism once and for all.” That is the plan.

As I note in The Sword of Revolution and The Communist Apocalypse, the Marxists see the U.S. as a society based on slavery which has since become the leading capitalist nation and must therefore be “transformed” into socialism on the road to communism. Looking at this through Marxist eyes, the U.S. developed beyond an economic system based on slavery to be in the current stage between capitalism and socialism, what is called the highest stage of capitalism.

What has changed over time, as the World Revolution continues gobbling up country after country, is that China has become the leader of the world communist movement, replacing the Soviet Union/Russia. Eventually, according to the Marxist theory of history, America will become a communist state and then be integrated into the China-dominated New World Order.

Trump and his top aide Peter Navarro are standing in the way of this development. They deserve our thanks and praise.

Saving Democracy?

By Lex Greene

April 9, 2025

Aside from the constitutional fact that the United States isn’t actually a pure “democracy,” but rather a Constitutional Representative Republic, which guarantees every citizen and member state “a republican form of government” in Article IV – Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution, today’s constitutional illiterates claim to be “saving democracy” when in fact, they are the greatest threat to democracy in the USA.

Article IV – Section 4 – “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion;”

To be fair, a “republic” is a specific type of “democracy.”

The power of government is held by the people.
The people give power to leaders they elect to represent them and serve their interests.
The representatives are responsible for helping all the people in the country, not just a few people.

In the case of the USA, the Constitution does not create of government by “mob rule,” wherein any simple majority is free to dictate to the rest of the people without any limitations.

Our government must represent the will of the majority, while not infringing upon the equal rights of any minority. To accomplish this, our republican form of government is very limited in its authority via the terms and conditions in the contract or compact known as the Constitution. Our government is further limited by the Bill of Rights, a document enumerating several specific prohibitions of government authority.

Political activists are characterized by their stated belief structure and political ideals. Today’s “democrats” hold the following beliefs.

No basic Right to Life
No Right to Individual Liberty, but rather “collectivism” via mob rule
No national sovereignty
No national security
No Constitution or Bill of Rights
No economic freedom, for the “greater good” of taxpayer dependents
No of, by, or for the people at large, but rather for special interest groups
No sanity, common decency, or Rule of Law
No “free speech”
No protection of personal or public property
No Right to keep what you earn
No legal citizenship, or even who can and cannot legally seek public office
No Right to real Justice, just a focus on so-called “social justice”
No racial equality, just endless racial divisions

You get the point, right?

We are talking about a group of people who cast aside their duly nominated Presidential candidate and voted for the undemocratically installed candidate last year, Kamala Harris. Is it even possible to be more undemocratic than that?

They want you to believe that they simply “hate Trump” (and Musk too now), when in reality, they hate YOU and ME, and everything about our country. They want you to think they only hate Trump, when in fact, they hate all 77,302,416 Americans who voted for Trump to Make America Great Again.

The “Hands Off” astroturf rallies over the weekend prove that this group of people represent only the most ill-informed segment of our population. Video after video shows how these individuals have been Pavlov trained to do the street bidding of their anti-American politicians and real Nazis like George Soros and the WEF. These folks are not intelligent enough to realize they are mere pawns for their political kings and queens, sent into the streets armed with nothing but real fears based upon a constant diet of outright lies.

Let’s be generous and say that the “hands off” Soros/DNC astroturf operation put a million Americans in the streets last Saturday… that’s a tiny fraction of the 77.3-million that voted for President Trump three times in a row. Why do they think they have a right to dictate policies they don’t even understand, to the whole country?

But let’s get very real for a moment!

What good did you think could ever come from a society wherein a majority of voters believe in an alleged right to murder their own children for mere social convenience?

Did you really think that people who refuse to protect their own children would ever vote to protect you or your children from evil?

Do you really believe that people who voted for undemocratically installed candidates last year, give a damn about “democracy?”

Do you believe for even a second, that people who don’t care about the lives of rights of their own children, give a damn about yours or mine?

If you do, then you’re as foolish as they are!

These people do not just hate Trump and Musk, they hate YOU! They hate everything you stand for. They couldn’t care less that you “democratically elected” Trump, or that the only authentic way to “save democracy” is to root out all crime, corruption, and waste in our government.

They want the only unelected branch of government to rule over the “democratically elected” President, because that is the only place they have power now, while crying “nobody elected Musk.” Well, nobody ever elected a single federal judge either!

Face it, this group is too stupid and evil to properly rule over their own lives, but they demand the power to rule over yours.

They do not care how they get that power. They are every bit as evil and corrupt as their leaders.

This isn’t just about what we do at election time. It’s about what we can accomplish between elections, to secure our own country and root out evil everywhere we find it.

All it takes for evil to prevail, is for good people to do nothing!

Enemy of Freedom are Taking Over Western Governments Globally

By Bradlee Dean

April 9, 2025

“The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Psalm 9:17

What is it that people do not hear, or what is it that the people do not see (Jeremiah 5:21)?

The Lord clearly said, “And it shall come to pass, that as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good, and to multiply you; so the LORD will rejoice over you to destroy you, and to bring you to nought; and ye shall be plucked from off the land whither thou goest to possess it.”

In vs. 43 The Lord warned that “The stranger that is within thee shall get up above thee very high; and thou shalt come down very low…”

In vs. 49-51 He said, “The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand; A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young: And he shall eat the fruit of thy cattle, and the fruit of thy land, until thou be destroyed: which also shall not leave thee either corn, wine, or oil, or the increase of thy kine, or flocks of thy sheep, until he have destroyed thee.”

He also warned that our enemies would “besiege thee in all thy gates, until thy high and fenced walls come down, wherein thou trustedst, throughout all thy land: and he shall besiege thee in all thy gates throughout all thy land, which the LORD thy God hath given thee.”

Therefore, why is this happening? It is not difficult to understand. Go back to Deuteronomy 28:15, the verse that proceeds the outcome of disobedience towards the Lord, “It shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee.”

What is taking place today is clearly happening not just in the West but all over the world simultaneously.

However, what are you being told by the media that 94% of you say that you don’t believe? You are being told that they are contributing to society, that they are the victims of corrupt government regimes, genocides, war, etc. In some cases, this may be true. Yet, let me propose statistically who I am addressing here. Does this sound like those who are victims that are seeking asylum? Are they contributing to society?

Really? Let’s look at Muslims from the east who are plundering countries that they are entering.

♦ Denmark: 450% more crimes committed by Muslims than non-Muslims.

♦ Germany: Muslim migrants committed 142, 500 crimes in 6 months. This is 780 every day.

♦ Sweden: 480,000 sexual assaults in one year. 77% of all rapes by less than 2% Muslim.

♦ England and Wales: Over 56% of Syrian refugees committed severe crimes in less than 1 year etc.

♦ Belgium: 35% of the prison population is Muslim who make up only 6% of the population.

♦ UK: Muslims fill 44% of high-security prisons, out of a 5% population.

♦ USA: 91.4 % of Muslim refugees are on food stamps, and 68.3 % are on cash welfare.

Muslim migration has doubled in the decade since 9/11 and 60% of migrants to America favor Sharia law (Deuteronomy 28:15-68).

All that one must do is look to Germany, Sweden, France, or the U.K. to see what is happening concerning the Muslim invasions and overthrow of these countries. Again, these Muslims are not coming into these countries to assimilate. Rather. they are there to conquer (Just ask them), and it is exactly what they are doing (Matthew 7:16). This is happening incrementally and scripturally; it is called a siege.

Out Of Their Own Mouths: The Muslims Are Telling You Their Plans–Infiltrate American Government (Video)

Imagine DeSantis as POTUS!

By Kat Stansell

April 8, 2025

Chris O’Meara / AP

Recently, there was an article in the Western Journal, covering DeSantis’s feelings about his own party and the bills they are passing. He is upset that both houses are failing to advance a conservative agenda in numerous policy areas.

I don’t know whether to laugh or wretch. Read the article; it’s a hoot.

Where was DeLittle Guy when his legislature – in the face of Trump’s request for states to use paper ballots and no machines – chose to remove all possibility of real audit for voting, and give all to machines?? That was just this month, as they passed SB 1414. Did they dupe poor Ron?

What about disenfranchising duly elected County Commission members? Or bringing legal action against a Republican group because they dared use the magic word, “Republican”??

Those fake voter guides, lying about which candidates were supported by Trump last year, also carried DeGov’s image. Was he part of that, or was that just one more thing he “didn’t know”? Those candidates were, shall we say, amendable to development, and, by Tally reckoning, needed to be in power. The property tax issue is paying off for everyone in Tallahassee, very well, it is believed. Developers are their friends. MAGA conservatives, not so much.

Then, there is the insurance issue, where DeGov backed the insurers against the people; and the contact tracing bill for forceful vax and/or incarceration. The later, passed April , 2021, is still on the books as far as I can learn.

Speaking of vaccines, the “medical freedom’ bill passed by Ron’s gang in Tally promised only ‘freedom’ of medical choices until the end of Covid – which was declared ‘over’ eleven days after the FL bill was passed.

DeSantis’s legislature pushed hard for the passage of Soros-funded David Becker’s “harrassment” bill, SB 7050, wherein anyone questioning anything about the voting process could be jailed without trial. At the last minute, that provision was removed, but still. How could he have been clueless? Unless he wasn’t.

Oh, yeah…and wasn’t he the one who ordered Trump supporters to be removed from public property, at his book-signing in Leesburg? Their crime: wearing Trump gear and carrying Trump signs. Does THAT show “conservative values”?

Maybe these acts are Ron DeSantis’s idea of a “conservative agenda.” They have been going on since he became Governor (with DJT’s help). It surely seems so. Watch his actions, not his ‘dog and phoney shows’ when he is pontificating to the public.

Had he become DePotus, Americans might well have been treated to this notion of DeGov’s “Conservative agenda”. The difference between the Biden regime and DeSantis’s would have been difficult to decipher, except for the short guy with darker hair standing behind the podium waving his arms. Biden couldn’t let go of the lectern for fear of toppling over.

The teleprompter might still have been present.

Frankly, Ron DeSantis doesn’t have the capability to do what Trump is doing. His constituents were well aware, and showed it in that massive primary defeat last year where DeGov came in a distant third to Trump, and Nikki Haley; Trump 81.2%; Haley 13.9% and DeGov, 3.7%.

The general public needs to catch on. There is still a following of the uninformed out there, who think he is the country’s best governor. His constituents know. Vote totals tell the story.

The Totallytarian story. I say he has known all along what has been going down in his state. If he has NOT, he is not fit to clean toilets in DC, let alone become POTUS>

Just my opinion. Call it ‘Kattitude’. Ron DeSantis is a phoney conservative, of the dangerous kind, and his state, for the most part, has caught him in the act.

Whose Safety Matters More?

By Paul Engel

April 8, 2025

Whose safety matters more, law enforcement of civilians?
Does being legally armed automatically make you a danger to society?
Should officer safety override the Constitution of the United States.

Imagine you are stopped by law enforcement. Maybe you were doing something wrong, maybe not. At this point, when you are in the custody of law enforcement, whose safety matters more: Yours or that of the officer? In the 2017 Fourth Circuit case United States v. Robinson, while not specifically put this way, the question still came up. Does officer safety trump your right against unreasonable search and seizure, against even your own safety?

Background

To understand the decision in this case, we have to start at the beginning.

After receiving a tip that a man in a parking lot well known for drug-trafficking activity had just loaded a firearm and then concealed it in his pocket before getting into a car as a passenger, Ranson, West Virginia police stopped the car after observing that its occupants were not wearing seatbelts. Reasonably believing that the car’s passenger, Shaquille Robinson, was armed, the police frisked him and uncovered the firearm, leading to his arrest for the possession of a firearm by a felon.

United States v. Robinson

After receiving a tip, it appears that law enforcement may have been looking for an excuse to search Shaquille Robinson, and they found one when he drove off without his seatbelt on. Using the anonymous tip about Mr. Robinson being armed as a pretext, the police frisked him and uncovered a firearm. Since Mr. Robinson was a felon, they arrested him for exercising his Second Amendment right after he had lost it for his felony conviction.

The Courts

Was the frisk legal? Did the police violate Mr. Robinson’s right to be secure from unreasonable searches? Mr. Robinson through so.

During his prosecution, Robinson filed a motion to suppress the evidence recovered as a result of the frisk, contending that the frisk violated his Fourth Amendment rights. The officers, he argued, had no articulable facts demonstrating that he was dangerous since, as far as the officers knew, the State could have issued him a permit to carry a concealed firearm. After the district court denied the motion to suppress, Robinson pleaded guilty to the illegal possession of a firearm, reserving the right to appeal the denial of his motion to suppress.

United States v. Robinson

Mr. Robinson has a very interesting point. Why should someone being in possession of a firearm lead to an assumption of dangerousness? After all, for all the officer knew, Mr. Robinson could have been a legal concealed carrier; he might even have had a carry permit. How does that establish reasonable suspicion that a crime was being committed? When that didn’t work at the trial, Mr. Robinson tried again on appeal.

On appeal, Robinson contends again that the information that police received from the tip described seemingly innocent conduct and that his conduct at the time of the traffic stop also provided no basis for officers to reach the conclusion that he was dangerous. He argues, “Under the logic of the district court, in any state where carrying a firearm is a perfectly legal activity, every citizen could be dangerous, and subject to a Terry frisk and pat down.”

United States v. Robinson

Mr. Robinson’s argument on appeal gets even better. None of his conduct would lead a reasonable person to believe Mr. Robinson was dangerous unless you assume everyone with a gun is automatically a danger to society. And if everyone who legally carries a firearm is automatically subject to a Terry stop (from the case Terry v. Ohio), then merely exercising your right protected under the Second Amendment could be considered reasonable cause for a “stop and frisk.”

There’s another point that I find important, but didn’t see in the court opinion. The tip was anonymous. Under the Sixth Amendment, you have a right to confront your accuser.

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right … to be confronted with the witnesses against him;

U.S. Constitution, Amendment VI

If the reasonable assumption that the police used to search Mr. Robinson was based on an anonymous tip, how can he confront his accuser? So if Mr. Robinson cannot confront the person who accused him of carrying a loaded weapon in court, how can that be used for reasonable suspicion? After all, isn’t an anonymous tip hearsay? For all the court may know, the accuser has a personal interested in seeing Mr. Robinson harassed, regardless of his guilt.

We reject Robinson’s argument and affirm, concluding that an officer who makes a lawful traffic stop and who has a reasonable suspicion that one of the automobile’s occupants is armed may frisk that individual for the officer’s protection and the safety of everyone on the scene.

United States v. Robinson

If the reasonable suspicion of the possession of a firearm is sufficient for an officer to frisk a suspect, what about the civilian? After all, there is a more than reasonable suspicion that law enforcement is armed. Does that give cause for the civilian to frisk the officer for his or her safety? If only one party is armed, then only one party is a threat to the safety of everyone.

The Fourth Amendment does not “require … police officers [to] take unnecessary risks in the performance of their duties.”

United States v. Robinson

The Fourth Amendment says no such thing. I agree, that police officers should not have to take unnecessary risks in the performance of their duties, but those duties include following the supreme law of the land. That is why their oath of office requires they swear or affirm to support the Constitution of the United States.

… It is also inconsequential that the passenger may have had a permit to carry the concealed firearm. The danger justifying a protective frisk arises from the combination of a forced police encounter and the presence of a weapon, not from any illegality of the weapon’s possession.

United States v. Robinson

Which gets to the root of the problem. If the danger comes from the presence of a weapon during a forced police encounter, regardless of whether or not it is legal, why does it matter which party holds the firearm? If police were as pure as the driven snow, then it would be reasonable for the threat to be one-sided. Then again, that would mitigate the need for police to have internal affairs divisions, and for other law enforcement entities to have inspectors general. While I’m sure the vast majority of law enforcement officers are just trying to do their job, there is plenty of evidence that some of those same officers have abused their position. Not to mention that some of those encounters have led to the assault and battery of the civilian, all while the civilian is defenseless before a government official. Isn’t that why we have a Second Amendment, to make sure We the People aren’t defenseless against a potentially hostile government?

The Traffic Stop

When Mr. Robinson was pulled over, the actions of the officer bring even more questions to this case.

Yes, Mr. Robinson was a felon, but did the officer know that at the time? The “tip” only identified “a black male in a bluish greenish Toyota Camry load a firearm [and] conceal it in his pocket.” Yes, this black male was leaving a high-crime area, which to me may justify the desire to be armed. Yet look how the officer treated what should have been a routine traffic stop.

After calling in the stop, Officer Hudson approached the driver’s side of the vehicle with his weapon drawn but carried below his waist and asked the driver for her license, registration, and proof of insurance. He also asked the male passenger, the defendant Robinson, for his identification but quickly realized that doing so was “probably not a good idea” because “[t]his guy might have a gun[,] [and] I’m asking him to get into his pocket to get his I.D.” Instead, Officer Hudson asked Robinson to step out of the vehicle.

United States v. Robinson

I am not an attorney, and I’m not familiar with West Virginia law, but is a passenger in a vehicle who is not wearing a seatbelt issued a citation, or just the driver? If not, what reasonable suspicion does Officer Hudson have that Mr. Robinson has committed, is committing, or is about to commit a crime? That is the requirement for a Terry stop and search. The only thing the officer knows is that the passenger is likely armed, that is, assuming this is the vehicle reported by the tipster. Based on this, Officer Hudson approaches the vehicle with his weapon drawn, giving those in the vehicle reasonable fear that their life is in imminent danger. I believe that is the trigger in all 50 states for a person to use lethal force to defend themselves. Remember, those in the car have no idea who the officer is or what his intentions are. All they know is that an armed person in uniform is approaching, and possibly that he has drawn his weapon.

Look at Officer Hudson’s reasoning. He asked the passenger for his ID, then realizes that this was “probably not a good idea.” Why? Because “[t]his guy might have a gun.” Now look at this from the other point of view. They know the officer has a gun. They may even be aware that he has drawn his gun. I wonder how Office Hudson would have reacted if Mr. Robinson, knowing he was dealing with an armed law enforcement officer, drew his weapon because he knows the officer is armed?

Who has a more reasonable, articulable, suspicion that their life might be endanger? Is it the officer, who is approaching a vehicle with unknown occupants and the knowledge that traffic stops go bad? Or is it the passengers who have an unknown armed officer approaching and a knowledge that some officers abuse their position, something especially known to happen to black civilians? Either way, we have a potentially tense situation made worse by the presence of firearms on both sides, and the escalation of Officer Hudson drawing his firearm.

Then, Captain Roberts enters the picture.

At this point, Captain Roberts arrived and opened the front passenger door. As Robinson was exiting the vehicle, Captain Roberts asked him if he had any weapons on him. Instead of responding verbally, Robinson “gave [Roberts] a weird look” or, more specifically, an ” ‘oh, crap’ look[ ].” Roberts took the look to mean, “I don’t want to lie to you, but I’m not going to tell you anything [either].”

United States v. Robinson

So Mr. Robinson exercises his right to remain silent, but Captain Roberts sees “a weird look”? Then Captain Roberts begins reading minds. There could be many reasons why Mr. Robinson would have a “weird” or “oh, crap” look. He was in a vehicle stopped by law enforcement, asked for his ID, even though I’m not sure he could be cited for the offense of not wearing a seatbelt, asked to exit the car, then asked about weapons. That could easily bring an “oh crap” look to someone’s face. Remember though, even if Mr. Robinson is armed, the police have yet to establish a reasonable suspicion that Mr. Robinson is committing a crime.

At this point, Captain Roberts directed Robinson to put his hands on top of the car and performed a frisk for weapons, recovering a loaded gun from the front pocket of Robinson’s pants. After conducting the frisk, Roberts recognized Robinson, recalled that he had previously been convicted of a felony, and arrested him.

United States v. Robinson

Only now, after Mr. Robinson has been targeted for an act that was most likely perfectly legal, stopped, asked for ID, asked to exist the vehicle, and frisked, does law enforcement have a reasonable suspicion that Mr. Robinson was committing a crime? Not because he was carrying a firearm, but because Captain Roberts, after conducting the frisk, recognizes Mr. Robinson as a convicted felon. Which means the ID and frisk of Mr. Robinson was conducted before police had reasonable suspicion of a crime. That is unless carrying a firearm is assumed to be a crime until proven otherwise.

Conclusion

I have a lot of concerns regarding this case. Yes, Mr. Robinson was in the act of committing a crime by being a felon in possession of a firearm, but no one other than Mr. Robinson knew that until after he was frisked. Yes, the stop was legal, since the officer observed the occupants driving without their seatbelts on. (The constitutionality of seatbelt laws is a question for another day.) But how does a seatbelt violation become a reasonable suspicion to frisk the passenger? Yes, there was a tip that the passenger was armed. That was an anonymous tip though, meaning there was no way for law enforcement to follow up and validate the tip without violating the rights of Mr. Robinson. And since it is legal in West Virginia to carry a loaded firearm, with certain restrictions, how is the tip reasonable suspicion of a crime? According to court records, Mr. Robinson was only identified as a “black male,” so there was no way for police to search his record and identify him as a felon, which would be necessary to reasonably lead them to believe Mr. Robinson was committing the crime of a felon in possession.

I understand the bias to find against Mr. Robinson; after all he was found to be a felon in possession of a firearm. But do the ends justify the means? What’s to prevent law enforcement from stopping you, or another innocent person, simply because they were observed in the perfectly legal act of loading a firearm and concealing it on their person? There are some places where I am not allowed to carry my firearm, so I lock it in my vehicle. When I exit, I check my firearm, then put it back in its holster. Should someone observe me doing this be sufficient for me to be frisked by law enforcement? Especially in Tennessee, where permit-less carry is legal? Is that not being considered guilty until proven innocent?

The courts might have had an easier time finding the frisk unreasonable if Mr. Robinson hadn’t been a felon. Then again, hindsight is 20-20. At the time of the stop, Officer Hudson and Captain Roberts had no reasonable, articulable suspicion that Mr. Robinson was a felon, or that he did not have a carry permit. So, under the precedent of Terry v. Ohio, the police had no reasonable, articulable suspicion that Mr. Robinson was committing a crime, making the frisk an unreasonable search, violating the Fourth Amendment and Mr. Robinson’s rights. This violation of Mr. Robinson’s rights was compounded by both the District and Circuit courts who heard his case.

I guess, under current federal jurisprudence, the ends to justify the means, and gun owners are considered guilty until proven innocent

Democrats Brace for Martial Law

By Cliff Kincaid

April 8, 2025

I covered one of the local April 5 anti-Trump “Hands Off!” protests and was somewhat taken aback when I heard Democratic Rep. April McClain Delaney plead for peaceful protests. She knows they have unleashed a monster through their communist rhetoric about Nazis and fascists running the U.S. Government and that Martial law is coming. President Trump and Elon Musk are their primary targets but ordinary people with Tesla cars or in the MAGA movement are in danger of escalating violence and terrorism.

Delaney understands that the “resistance” being unleashed on the streets on America is getting more violent by the day. She also fears being associated with it.

Looking into the faces in the audience and the messages on their signs, Delaney fears that the various Democratic Party constituencies are losing their minds and could play into Trump’s hands. I saw evidence of this myself, as the anti-Trump demonstrators were not only rallying for the socialist bureaucracy under assault by DOGE, demanding “Hands Off” to federal spending cuts, but other issues such as a “Free Palestine,” trans rights, abortion, and a return to the days when it was called the “Gulf of Mexico.” Several individuals carried profanity-laced signs, such as one proclaiming “F— the Patriarchy,” while others simply declared “Smash Fascism” and “MAGA = Nazi.”

This protest took place in Frederick, Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C., and home to thousands of federal workers. Many are losing their jobs, as the federal government is restructured to cope with massive federal deficits and debt, and President Trump attempts to rebuild the private sector and produce jobs for American workers.

I was there in the middle of this protest and saw with my own eyes how they worked themselves into a frenzy. You can see the photographs I took in this report on how this communist-inspired “People’s Movement” is “rising” across the country.

On March 8, I had covered another anti-Trump “resistance” rally in the Washington, D.C. area, taking photographs of people threatening violence, including assassinations of President Trump and Elon Musk, and featuring Palestinian flags. My report on this protest demonstrates the violence-prone nature of some of these people. This protest, like the one on April 5, was also co-sponsored by the local Democratic Party.

Alarmed by the direct calls for violence, I had called the local FBI office about these threats and was directed to the Baltimore, Maryland FBI office and no one picked up the phone. I called the local Sheriff’s office and a deputy said they could not act on the threats unless there was evidence of an actual conspiracy to kill Trump or Musk.

The use of the term “fascist” or “Nazi,” as applied to President Trump or Elon Musk, is a communist tactic. Opponents of communism are always fascists or Nazis. It dates to the Soviet days when the Russian communists fought the Nazis but started World War II through an alliance with Hitler’s regime.

I counted a few self-proclaimed socialists in the crowd wearing “Democratic Socialists of America” T-shirts but most of the “Hands Off!” protesters were run of the mill Democrats and the event was co-sponsored by the local Democratic Party. On the milder side, one guy with a big smile held a sign proclaiming, “Obama 2028.” He figured if Trump is going to run for a third term, Obama can, too. Perhaps his desperation reflects the state of the national party and realization that the current crop of Democrat presidential contenders is a disappointment.

As we prepare for the next phase of this campaign, there is significance in the fact that investigation of the Tesla firebombing case in Las Vegas revealed links between the perpetrator, Paul Hyon Kim, and communist groups, including the Communist Party USA, and Palestinian causes.

Short of martial law, there are federal statutes on the national level, such as the Communist Control Act, that can be used against members of these groups and their patrons. At the same time, state Attorneys General can identify and register local and state communist groups as foreign agents linked to Iran, Russia, China, or all three.

Many of the openly communist groups sponsoring the separate April 5 “March for Palestine” in Washington, D.C. are using tax-exempt funds to organize subversion of the United States. The Treasury Department can end this abuse tomorrow.

Over the course of my career, I have covered literally dozens of demonstrations on the left, from anti-nuclear protests featuring Jane Fonda to openly communist conferences sponsored by the Workers World Party (from which I was ejected), and have never witnessed such a hunger for death and destruction.

The new FBI under Director Kash Patel must monitor and even infiltrate these groups, and that includes the Democratic Party and their protests. When you hear the Democrats talk about Martial law, you know the worst is yet to come.
