When the Plastic Largess Dries Up, The “American Insurrection” Begins

Just a thought here…

Plastic will buy you anything these days. Even a hot war, right here at home.

Every time I hear about the cash cards and goodies being handed out to our invaders, I get angry. Especially, now at tax time, I keep asking myself and anyone else who will listen, WTF?, or my generic version thereof. Money is getting tighter for us all, and those who are being brought here to take us down – societally or militarily – are getting up to $10k/month?? I thought we were told that THEY were paying to come HERE.

The latest stories of this abomination come from (where else?) NYC. Mayor Eric Adams is announcing that every illegal in the city will be given $1000 a month. I know that doesn’t go far in NY, especially with a lot of truckers refusing loads that will make food prices rise. (And. good for them!!)

It seemed, though, that one minute Adams was whining how NYC could not afford the overload of human souls. The next minute, he was giving them money. OK, I know he’s a lefty and they cannot add 1+1, but he is now seemingly ok with it all. The money is coming from somewhere. No more carping.

Remember, too, that TX Governor, Abbott, sent busload after busload to NYC. At first, I thought, “in your face, Lefties”. But then I read something that made me pause. Was he helping to gather the troops? We know Abbott is not exactly “one of us.”

This may all be on purpose. The deactivation of these cash cards will happen when the Marxist madmen in DC want to ignite the violence. Invaders will be left to rampage and plunder. Americans will be forced to fight back, to protect their homes, families and food supplies. THAT will be how they start the “American Insurrection that Obama trained thousands of foreign troops to take down. We Americans and thousands of expendable foreigners will be the victims of this diabolical plot.

I’d thought that, if we just kept our cool, and didn’t let the madmen get to us, we could still keep the peace and those troops, inactive. I get it now. Using cash cards to start a war is a real possibility.

The Burning Platform today, shows us a Tweet from a Matt Bracken, that says the same.

The invaders are being kept happy for a while, or at least fed. Are they here to vote for Biden? Some think so, but In this scenario, it won’t matter who is in 1600. Thirty million people, approximately 10% of our population have been led to the public trough, which will go empty when the cash cards dry up. I think the idea of starving out the invaders, so they will come after us, may be exactly the plan. The Luciferian, hideous Marxist plan.

The cut off of the cash card will start the insurrection regardless of who is in Washington. The difference would be how Trump would deal with it.

Our keeping our powder dry, so to speak, will not prevent us from being attacked. Remember hearing about the underground bunkers being built for our government? Remember about the special emergency phones they’ve been issued? Remember how they cleared out Maui?

Yeah, so do I, and it doesn’t even feel like tin foil on my head anymore. This possibility explains a lot of otherwise random weirdness, including the Democrat Party’s apparent nonchalance about running a pair of idiots who are well underwater in the polls, for a second term

Cloward and Piven, now has a new twist. Cash cards were not a part of their world, so they could never have dreamed of the efficacy of this kind of plan. Some group of Globalist elite thought this one up some time ago. They stole the 2020 election, then President Numbnuts opened the borders wide and messed with our food and fuel supplies. Cash cards were issued, and the plan was in place.

As you prepare – and PLEASE DO – be thinking of all of those “Republicans” you trusted. All of them – Haley, Romney, DeSantis, McConnell and so many more – are part of this plan. We are at the stage where, “if you’re not with us, you’re against us”, and RINO Republicans are certainly NOT with us.

Do whatever you can to stop their legislative attempts to control you, your health, your children, your possessions, your relationship with your God. Guess this is another of my “off the couch and out the door” pleas, with a different more urgent slant. Fend them off, and keep your powder dry. For now.

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” ~ Edmund Burke​

“Some people say that there’s a woman to blame, but I know, it’s my own damn fault.”  —Jimmy Buffet.  “Margaritaville”

It is always some one else’s fault.  Have you noticed that, here in America?

It’s the refs.  It’s the government.  It’s the schools.  It’s the church.  It’s my pastor.  It’s President Biden.  It’s Donald Trump.  It’s the media. It’s the Left.  It’s the Right.  It’s racism.  It’s the courts.  It’s my spouse.  The Devil made me do it.

It’s the mirror.  That is one place no one wants to look.  What was it Michael Jackson sang…?

I’m starting with the man in the mirror. I’m asking him to change his ways. And no message could have been any clearer. If you wanna make the world a better place. Take a look at yourself and then make a change.

Personal responsibility is a tough pill to swallow.  It is so much more comforting to blame someone else for the mess that we have made of this nation. The church sucks.  The family sucks.  The government sucks.  The schools suck.

Life is about choices.  Some good.  Some bad.  But at the end of the day, WE are all responsible for the choices we make.  Until you accept the fact that it is your own damn fault nothing will ever change. Sorry Flip Wilson, the Devil didn’t make you do it.

No one made you over eat.

No one made you get married.

No one made you send your kids to government schools.

No one made you take the jab.

No one made you buy what you could not afford.

No one made you wear a mask.

No one made you follow the Dr’s orders.

No one made you sit down and shut up.

No one made you believe things that are not true.

No one made you blindly obey the experts.

No one made you lose your courage.

No one made you let the children run the house.

No one made you take drugs.

No one made you start drinking.

No one made you watch porn.

No one made you let your children be educated by non-believing teachers.

No one made you lie.

No one made you believe Dr. Fauci…or Mitch McConnell…or Pelosi.

No one made you identify Bruce Jenner as a woman.

No one made you call abortion “choice.”

No one made you believe that America was a racist nation.

No one made you stop judging right from wrong.

No one made you act politically correct.

No one made you believe illegal immigrants were not criminals.

No one made you believe J6 was an armed insurrection.

No one made you believe Christianity was non-violent.

No one made you take-out those student loans.

No one made you believe 2 planes brought down 3 towers.

No one made you believe that The Patriot Act would make you safer.

No one made you believe that not getting involved was a good idea.

Sorry.  Soooo much of what you have been led to believe simply is not true.

“There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.”― Soren Kierkegaard

Open your eyes.  Look in the mirror.  Stop blaming others for your own gullibility.  America is a mess.

It’s our own damn fault.

“Immigration is a form of war in which the violence is delayed.” —Martin Van Crevald, There Will Be War X

History and human nature display the certain doom for any semblance of an American Representative Republic from ever returning. Rome’s Fall would be a better fate for us than what is now coming. If you look around you, Laken Riley, Mollie Tibbets, Kate Steinle, all killed by illegal aliens invited into America by President Joe Biden, could be your daughters. There are hundreds of thousands more killed by illegals in drug overdoses, in rapes, in murders, in car accidents, and in gun fights. But no one is speaking to what’s coming.

But our borders are wide open to anyone who wants to destroy America!

Joe Biden is killing America and is an accomplice to our destruction as a free, sovereign and functioning society. What does he do? He eats ice cream and visits comedy shows on late night. He’s worse than Nero. He’s worse than any other president in American history.

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” —George Satayana

“When the situation was manageable it was neglected, and now that it is thoroughly out of hand, we apply too late the remedies which then might have effected a cure. There is nothing new in the story. It is as old as the sibylline books. It falls into that long, dismal catalogue of the fruitlessness of experience and the confirmed unteachability of mankind. Want of foresight, unwillingness to act when action would be simple and effective, lack of clear thinking, confusion of counsel until the emergency comes, until self-preservation strikes its jarring gong–these are the features which constitute the endless repetition of history.” —Winston Churchill, House of Commons, 2 May 1935

What is it going to take to impeach Joe Biden? He’s an accomplice to murder of our own citizens. He’s treating foreigners better than our own homeless. He’s inviting drug cartels to distribute to kill our young. He’s inviting Islamic terrorists to set up camp and blow up our country. He’s destroying our “rule of law.” He’s a criminal himself with his foreign “pandering for money” as Vice President. He’s totally in the grips of Alzheimer’s, but no one will say it in the mainstream media. What are they waiting for? Why are they pretending that Joe Biden commands his own faculties when it’s clear that he suffers from dementia? What is his wife getting out of it?

Why is POWER so important to her to allow him to run for another four years when he’s already a “walking cadaver” of a shell of a man? Why is his inner circle so ethically bankrupt that they would rather see our country decline into the pit of hell…than report that Joe Biden is not fit, is not capable, is not mentally or physically able to fulfill the office of the President of the United States?

Somebody better start screaming at the top of their lungs. Several have said exactly that Joe Biden is incompetent to serve. We need more and more Americans to yell, scream, write, phone and communicate with their senators, House members, governors and newspapers to tell the truth.

How many more millions of illegals can we absorb before we suffer another 9/11 or hundreds of smaller 9/11’s? How many of us want to give up our children to terrorists now within our country?

Is POWER in the hands of Biden’s handlers that important to destroy our country? Who among his inner circle think it’s THAT important to kill off America? Who at “60 Minutes…NPR…PBS…Face the Nation…Meet the Press” refuses to report on Joe Biden’s inability to pass a 30-question cognitive test? I would bet my life that he couldn’t score 5 points on that test.

Congress needs to wake up. They need to institute the 25th Amendment. We cannot keep fooling ourselves with a senile, decrepit, old man who no longer knows what’s going on in the world. Joe Biden is the “Nero” of the 21st century, and we’re the ones who are watching our own country being burned to the ground.

The 2024 will prove the nastiest, gnarliest, most divisive and dangerous year in American history because of Joe Biden.

The Solution’s Foundation Must be Laid Before We Address the Problems

I was a pretty damaged person in my early adulthood, (from some painful childhood experiences).  As I became an adult, the damage I carried prevented me from wholeness and health.  I knew it; I could feel it, but I couldn’t seem to get out of it.  I didn’t know how.  Damaged people damage people, and I knew that my reactions were damaging to those around me.  I needed free, and it would take me many, many years to get there.

Along the course of seeking healing and wholeness, I had to learn (and unlearn) a lot of things.  Primarily I sought God, because He was truly the only one I trusted, and I was certain He held every solution to every problem I had.  I just rarely had the understanding I needed.  So I took it one slow step at a time because it’s all I could handle at that point.

Once I had a direction to go, the Spirit led me to a book by Derek Prince called The Atonement, and God very plainly told me to start with that.  (I had several other options at that time and God made plain I was not to move in any other direction until I had read it, contrary to what I actually wanted to do at that point.)  Later I read the much more detailed book The Blood of Christ by Andrew Murray.

In a place of chaos, the way out is difficult to find.  There are too many (chaotic) things flying around that make it difficult to discern up from down, left from right, in from out.  You must have something solid to ground you, to give you a footing and help you gain a vision for how to move strategically forward out of the chaos.

This is why God started my healing and deliverance process with the foundation of the atonement of Christ.  As I began to move through the chaotic traumas in my heart and mind, I could plant my feet on the foundation of the atonement to navigate the flying memories, emotions, and baggage that constantly accosted me, threw me off balance, and threatened to drag me into dangerously swirling emotions and pain.  I began to learn to take everything back to the foundation of Christ, who He is, what He had accomplished, to gain my bearings on how to move in the midst of all that pain and chaos.  Eventually I was able to make my way through it all and end the presence of chaos in my life.

This is how I know to help Christians find their way in today’s chaos.  We’re inundated with evil all around us and a host of threats of which even just one could destroy us, not to mention the hundreds coming at us.  Our food, water and air are polluted and poisonous.  Our media and public mouthpieces are lying to us, manipulating us.  Our government has betrayed us. There are physical threats, mental threats, and emotional threats on about a thousand fronts right now.  Many of us have some sort of real trauma operating in our lives presently.  All of this and much more swirls around us constantly.

If we try to move forward as victims, we will be defeated.  If we try to find our way out by raging at the darkness, it will consume us.  If we ignore it, we will become prey to it.  There is but one way to navigate the chaos of the world in 2024 and come through victorious.  There is only one way.

The Supremacy of Christ.

The Great Reversal

The sons of God “…did not keep their own domain, but abandoned their proper abode”.  Jude 6 calls them angels.  The Hebrew refers to them as sons of God, but the Greek as angels from the Greek word aggelos meaning “a messenger”, taken from the Greek ago which is a verb that means “to lead”.

If we discount that these created beings of the heavenly realm were referenced as “sons of God”, we’re going to miss some important details.  Enoch tells us a more detailed history of Genesis 6, and Enoch 6:1 says it like this:

“And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days were born unto them beautiful and comely daughters.  And the angels, the children of heaven, saw and lusted after them…”

Genesis 6:1 says it like this:

“Now it came about, when men began to multiply on the face of the land, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves, whomever they chose.”

Those read startlingly similar.  Enoch calls them “children of heaven” and Genesis calls them “sons of God”.

If I could summarize… created beings of heaven called “sons of God” and “children of heaven”, left their appropriate domain and abandoned their proper abode [in heaven] to interfere with the created realm of earth.  Not only did they procreate (heavenly beings with earthly beings), but they began to teach these earthly beings all kinds of wickedness.  In fact, Enoch tells that one of the watchers named Azazel was ascribed all the sin of the earth for the wickedness he taught.  (10:8)

There’s a lot I’m not getting into (which is why I encourage reading Enoch), but the essence of these sons of God leading man into wickedness and then turning on man and destroying them (Enoch 7), and that these sons of God produced offspring with the daughters of men is what I want to focus on.

These sons of God who corrupted themselves and humanity, and produced offspring to further the corruption, continued to lead humanity astray by establishing religions to their names.  They are the Babylonian gods of old, who were renamed by region to be Egyptian gods, Mesopotamian gods, Roman gods, Greek gods, and the list goes on and on and on.

Matthew meticulously records the fourteen generations from Abraham to David, the fourteen generations from David to the Babylonian deportation (diaspora), and the fourteen from the Babylonian deportation to Christ.  Then Matthew tells us that at this last fourteenth generation, the Messiah would be born of a woman and the Spirit of God and we know He would be known as the SON OF GOD.

Only unlike these other sons of God who cohabited with women and brought wickedness to the earth, this Son of God through the union of flesh and spirit would bring righteousness.

Unlike the sons of God who brought death and destruction to the earth, this Son of God would bring life and abundance.

Unlike the sons of God who taught violence, revenge, and selfish ambition, this Son of God would teach love and peace, forgiveness and reconciliation, and personal sacrifice for the good of others.

Unlike the sons of God who demanded blood sacrifices from humans to appease their wicked appetites, this Son of God would become the blood sacrifice to atone for the wickedness of humans.

Unlike the sons of God who had priests of sexual depravity and altars of death and destruction, this Son of God would be the final sacrifice, eliminating the lust for flesh-filled altars, and become the High Priest to God, doing away with earthly priests.

Unlike the sons of God who alienated us from God, the Son of God reconciled humanity back to God.

Unlike the sons of God who made humanity slaves to sin, the Son of God delivered us from the curse of sin.

Then the Son of God gave those who would believe on Him the power to become sons of God.

The sons of God left their heavenly abode for an earthly existence and have been condemned to judgment.  How ironic that through the Son of God we who are earthly can attain a heavenly existence.

Everything about Jesus addresses everything that has stymied and sabotaged man.  It’s important we understand this before we move forward to some very real, very complex, and very dangerous threats to humanity.  There is no problem facing humanity today that is not resolved in the person of Christ.  Absolutely all and every one of our needs are met in Him.

We are in a place of chaos (by design).  The ancient gods have regrouped and found a lethargic, compromised society that is easily ensnared.  The weaknesses of humanity have taken care of the rest.  If we’re going to be victorious in this fight, we have to be solidly planted on a foundation that won’t shift as the chaos blows around us.  In some ways we’ll learn as we go, but in all ways we have to be planted firmly on the Rock.

The gods the powers-that-be are worshiping today demand the same things they did then:  homage, adulation, loyalty, obedience, and yes, blood sacrifice.  In exchange, they gift their adherents with resources, power, and things that stoke the flesh, like fame and notoriety, and substances that feed lusts (sex, drugs, indulgences, etc).

I’m learning to look behind the circumstance before me to see what’s operating.  It’s the most liberating thing in the world to declare, “That’s not my god.”  Half-time show of rituals and feeding the flesh?  That’s not my god.  (I won’t participate.)  Latest promoted fear (whether it be war, disease, economic, etc.)?  That’s not my god.  (I won’t participate.)  Awards ceremonies for entertainers?  That’s not my god.  (I won’t participate.)  Technology must-haves?  That’s not my god.  (I won’t participate.)

When you know who your God is, the counterfeit is easier to spot.  You reject the counterfeit.  You don’t use it.  You don’t participate in its actions and schemes.  There’s a place where Christ shows us to be shrewd with the things of this world in order to advance the Kingdom of God, and we have to learn how to do that without compromising our faith and convictions and without sullying the Name of Christ.  The parable of the shrewd manager is an excellent example of this.

We are now the authentic sons and daughters of God.  We have the authority given us by Christ.  The unrighteous sons of God have been defeated.  The only power they have now is the power someone gives them.  Don’t give it to them.

A few articles back I encouraged you to listen to a Jamie Winship presentation at a conference.  There were two prominent takeaways:  hearing the voice of God and walking in your identity.  Both of those things are key for how we move in the chaos around us.  Jamie was in war zones for decades, but was himself at peace.  He raised a family in hostile environments, and his family was safe.  When you know your identity, the circumstances around you are not your prison.  When you can hear the voice of God, you can navigate around the obstacles and landmines of the battle scene you’re in.

If you didn’t get a chance to listen, here it is.  If you glean value in it, it has three more parts.

We must set our foundation solidly on Christ in order to be victorious in the chaotic days ahead.  Knowing who He is, and how He has defeated the enemies of God and man is critical for laying that foundation.  It gives us the position we both stand and rest in.

“Damn the torpedoes—full speed ahead!”  —Adm. Farragut

I don’t know what Admiral Farragut would have thought of Artificial Intelligence (AI), but he would’ve known “Full speed ahead!” when he saw it. And that’s precisely what we’re doing with Artificial Intelligence: full speed ahead, what could possibly go wrong?

Just last week Google had to “pause” its AI Image Generation program—“pause” means “take it off-line”—while they tried to correct a wee “mistake” in the program. What mistake was that? Oh, nothing major. All they did was erase white people from history and make ‘em all black. Presidents (even George Washington!), popes, scientists, everyone who ever made a name in history—all black. This, they admitted, was “an inaccuracy.” Ya think?

But they’re not done yet, no, precious—plenty of capers left in that box.

This week’s plunge into AI featured a plan to “digitally” re-create your loved ones when they pass on. Well, hey, as long as it’s “digital”…! All they’ve got to do is create talking images that parrot the loved one’s collected tweets, emails, blog posts, etc. You are what you tweet.

Critics have warned that interfering with the grieving process—maybe even skipping it altogether—is something less than a ticket to robust mental health. They have even suggested that it might give rise to a new religion. We could call it “Full Speed Ahead-ism.” We could call the tweet-spouting images “ghosts.” O brave new world, that hath such people in it! (Shakespeare had a line for everything.)

Messing around with artificial “ghosts” is probably not such a hot idea, either. But we are galloping, stampeding, racing full-tilt into an AI universe—and torpedoes be damned.

What would a new religion, centered on AI, teach us? Besides how to be as crazy as a bedbug. Would it merge with Transgender Mania, or compete with it for what’s left of our souls? What are we to make of a “religion” that appoints each and every one of us his or her own creator, inhabiting his or her own made-up-as-you-go-along reality? Inquiring black female popes want to know! After all, they might wind up in charge of it.

I remember a few years ago when they tried to do this with holograms. That scheme fell through—too far ahead of its time, I suppose.

But hey now! Grandma isn’t really dead! Just park the monitor on the table, turn it on, and there she is for Thanksgiving dinner: artificial resurrection (AR)! So much handier than whatever you might find in the Bible. And no asking tricky questions, like “What does she do with herself when the monitor’s not on? Is Grandpa there, too? He never made any tweets or sent any emails while he was alive—but can he do it now, in cyberspace?”

That’ll be the next step, won’t it? Messages from anyone who ever lived—or didn’t live. You want to talk with the Cat in the Hat? AI will make it happen. Just ignore the torpedoes and enjoy the ride.

I have discussed these and other topics throughout the week on my blog, http://www.leeduigon.com/ . Click the link and maybe this time stumble into a totally new reality. My articles can also be found at www.chalcedon.edu/ .

• Are mask mandates constitutional?
• Do you have a right to refuse to wear a mask?
• Can you build a compelling argument for why you refuse?

I’ve spoken repeatedly about the unconstitutionality of most mask mandates. Recently, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals was asked to review two cases where people were punished for attending school board meetings while refusing to wear masks. Sadly, the cases, as described in the Circuit Court opinion, seem poorly founded, thus leading to decisions against the plaintiffs. I think a closer look will not only show the flaws in the case, but help others build better ones in the future.

Before we start, I want to state that the COVID-19 mask mandates were not only unconstitutional, but illegal as well, as I will show later in this review. However, we need to start where the Circuit Court started: With their own assumptions.

Background

The court stated their opinion with some background on the two cases they were reviewing.

On March 9, 2020, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy declared a state of emergency in response to the quickly spreading coronavirus known as COVID-19. … As we now know, it primarily spreads through airborne particles that accumulate in enclosed spaces, respiratory droplets produced when a person coughs, sneezes, or talks, and occasionally through contact with objects contaminated with the virus. How COVID-19 Spreads, CDC (Aug. 11, 2022), https://perma.cc/EPP9-AUWT.

Falcone v. Dickstein et. al. (22-2701) Opinion & Gwyneth K. Murray-Nolan et. al. (22-2702) Circuit Court Opinion

In order to perform a fair review, we must take into consideration what was known back in 2020 even though much of it has since been proven false. We must also consider what is fact and what is opinion. For example, the court points to a statement from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) about how COVID-19 spreads. However, nothing in the document referenced even suggests that there are studies showing that this is how COVID spreads. This “common knowledge” may be based in some reason and logic, but that does not make it true. While later studies such as one known as the Chocrane Report found that, in general, masking made little if any difference in the transmission of SARS-COV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

Individuals infected with COVID-19 can spread the disease while asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic, making the virus difficult to control.

Falcone v. Dickstein et. al. (22-2701) Opinion & Gwyneth K. Murray-Nolan et. al. (22-2702) Circuit Court Opinion

Once again, we see decisions being driven by assumptions that later turn out to be untrue. For example, Asymptomatic transmission of covid-19 was published in December of 2020, and stated.

Earlier estimates that 80% of infections are asymptomatic were too high and have since been revised down to between 17% and 20% of people with infections.

Asymptomatic transmission of covid-19

How are people supposed to make informed decisions with so many opinions being treated as scientific facts? In part because of these assumptions, Governor Murphy took several steps.

Over the course of the ensuing months, Governor Murphy issued a series of Executive Orders to monitor and curb its spread. One of them mandated that New Jersey schools “maintain a policy regarding mandatory use of face masks by staff, students, and visitors in the indoor portion of the school district premises,” except, for example, when an individual qualifies for and obtains a medical exemption. …

In preparation for the 2021-2022 school year, New Jersey School Districts—including the Freehold Township and Cranford Township School Districts—implemented mandatory indoor masking policies consistent with the Executive Order.

Falcone v. Dickstein et. al. (22-2701) Opinion & Gwyneth K. Murray-Nolan et. al. (22-2702) Circuit Court Opinion

Both Mr. Falcone and Ms. Murray-Nolan objected to the New Jersey mask mandate in schools. Both attended school board meetings unmasked, were confronted by members of the school board, and threatened by the board with contacting law enforcement. Both stated that attending the board meeting maskless was constitutionally protected political speech, and that the boards had retaliated against them for it, Mr. Falcone by the board canceling subsequent meetings and Ms. Murray-Nolan by her being arrested. Both eventually sued their respective school boards and law enforcement under 42 USC § 1983, Civil action for deprivation of rights and New Jersey Statutes Title 10. Civil Rights 10 § 6-2.

In Mr. Falcone’s case:

The District Court dismissed the amended complaint on the ground that Falcone had no standing to sue. It found his alleged injuries—the receipt of a summons and the Board’s meeting cancellation—were not “traceable” to the BOE or Police Defendants but instead to Governor Murphy’s Executive Order that the Board had to obey. … It followed, in the District Court’s view, that Falcone’s alleged injuries also were not “redressable” by injunctive relief because “an injunction directed at Defendants would not enjoin the Governor from implementing or enforcing a mask mandate.”

Falcone v. Dickstein et. al. (22-2701) Opinion & Gwyneth K. Murray-Nolan et. al. (22-2702) Circuit Court Opinion

The Circuit Court reversed that decision on standing, and remanded the case back to the District Court.

In Ms. Murray-Nolan’s case:

The District Court rejected the Cranford Defendants’ standing arguments but agreed Murray-Nolan failed to state a claim for First Amendment retaliation. … Her alleged “right to appear at [the Board meetings] without a mask” was not “inherently expressive” conduct, it reasoned, but rather was expressive only “because she told Defendants that it was, and sued to prove it.”

Falcone v. Dickstein et. al. (22-2701) Opinion & Gwyneth K. Murray-Nolan et. al. (22-2702) Circuit Court Opinion

The Circuit Court found:

Amid valid government-mandated health and safety measures, refusing to wear a face mask is not expressive conduct protected by the First Amendment. Murray-Nolan’s retaliation claim also fails because the police had probable cause to arrest her, and she does not link her constitutionally protected speech activities (e.g., her social media posts) to any of the Cranford Defendants’ allegedly retaliatory actions. We thus affirm the District Court’s dismissal of her amended complaint.

Falcone v. Dickstein et. al. (22-2701) Opinion & Gwyneth K. Murray-Nolan et. al. (22-2702) Circuit Court Opinion

Analyzing the Cases

In both cases, the plaintiffs sued under both state and federal laws, claiming a deprivation of rights under the First Amendment. While the court focused on issues of standing, I see a much more fundamental issue with both cases: The claim of a First Amendment violation. That amendment reads:

Congress shall make no law … abridging the freedom of speech,

U.S. Constitution, Amendment I

Many people claim that the Fourteenth Amendment somehow makes the First Amendment apply to the states, but the language of the Fourteenth Amendment does nothing to change the language of the First.

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States;

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV

In my opinion, that makes the foundation of both of these cases very weak. They may have sued alleging violation of Article I, Section 6 of the New Jersey Constitution.

Every person may freely speak, write and publish his sentiments on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that right. No law shall be passed to restrain or abridge the liberty of speech or of the press.

New Jersey Constitution, Article I, Clause 6

That is still a weak argument, since in neither case the plaintiff was prevented from speaking. Rather, what we have here is a deprivation of both liberty and property without due process of law.

nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV

While this argument can be laid at the feet of the School Boards, it would more properly be extended to Gov. Murphy.

Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress

42 U.S.C. §1983

Rights Violated

Let’s look at the details of my argument for the rights of Mr. Falcone and Ms. Murray-Nolan being violated. Let’s start where this legal issue began, with Gov. Murphy’s executive order.

The Governor shall take care that the laws be faithfully executed.

New Jersey Constitution, Article V, Section 1 Clause 11

The Governor of New Jersey has the power to make sure the laws be faithfully executed. Therefore, for Gov. Murphy’s executive order to be valid, it must be allowed under New Jersey law. I am not an expert on New Jersey law, so let’s assume that the law allows the Governor to issue such an executive order. There’s still one very serious problem with that mandate: It deprives people of both their liberty and the property they have in their own body without due process of law.

An established course for judicial proceedings or other governmental activities designed to safeguard the legal rights of the individual.

Due Process – The Free Legal Dictionary

Blanket mandates, such as those used by the State of New Jersey, violate due process because they do not safeguard the rights of the individual. There is no requirement someone be shown to have COVID-19 nor that they are contagious, before their liberty is infringed. As shown earlier in this article, the assumptions that supported the mask mandates were not based in rigorous scientific studies, but unsubstantiated statements from government agencies that do not legally exist. (The Constitution does not delegate to the United States the power to regulate public health, food, or drugs.)

Furthermore, in the United States, the government is supposed to have the burden of proof before they infringe on your rights. Since no probable cause was established that Mr. Falcone or Ms. Murray-Nolan were contagious, and therefore a danger to others, requiring them to wear masks violated their liberty. Also since wearing a mask can and does have an impact on the wearer, these mandates deprived them both of control of their property, namely their bodies. Even if we accept that at the time of these incidents, the medical establishment believed in the efficacy of wearing masks, the logic of mandates contradicts that assumption. After all, if masks were really that effective, why do they only work if everyone is wearing one? Since there was no due process either in the executive order creating the mask mandate or in its implementation, then the government-mandated health and safety measure was not, as the Circuit Court claimed, valid, and the school districts were not required to enforce them.

Since 42 USC §1983 states that “Every person who”, under color of law, deprives someone of a right protected by the Constitution or laws is liable, that would include not just the Governor, as the court stated, but both the board members and law enforcement as well.

Conclusion

I’m not saying this argument would have ultimately brought about a different outcome for Mr. Falcone or Ms. Murray-Nolan. However, imagine the scene where they entered the board meeting without masks. What if, rather than a general claim of speaking maskless being a constitutionally protected right, they could have provided both the board and law enforcement with a simple 1-2 page document pointing out that the governor’s executive order was unconstitutional and therefore void.

An unconstitutional act is not a law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; it affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation as inoperative as though it had never been passed.

Norton v. Shelby County :: 118 U.S. 425 (1886)

What if they could have stood in front of their boards and not only articulated their points in detail, but provided evidence both constitutional and judicial of the rightness of their point? What if, should law enforcement still have been engaged, they could show not only the unconstitutionality of the acts of the governor and the board, but their criminality as well?

An unconstitutional law is void, and is as no law. An offence created by it is not a crime. A conviction under it is not merely erroneous, but is illegal and void, and cannot be a legal cause of imprisonment.

Ex parte Siebold :: 100 U.S. 371 (1879)

Would the outcome of their situations have been different? We will never know. However, I for one have found that a well reasoned and supported case, especially with documentation, can have a profound impact on those we are trying to persuade.

“All liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone.” -Revelation 21:8

Somehow or another, the American people have mistakenly made entertainers and professional athletes as people of importance so much so that they have put their idols, the players and teams, in the place of Christ (Exodus 20:13; Acts 4:12).

With all of the information coming out concerning the NFL and how it is rigged (scripted) from start to finish (Ephesians 4:14), one has to ask themselves why they are still watching it.

Yet, the point that I want to make here is the blatant hypocrisies of those who play the Christian in the midst of acting out the deceptions.

“He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.” -1 John 2:4

Recently, a meme came out with Patrick Mahomes, quarterback (notice on the videos above that the quarterbacks are sought out in order to rig the games) for the Kansas City Chiefs, kneeling down and the meme read that he goes out onto the field and prays for 2 hours before every game that he plays.  He says, “My Christian faith plays a role in everything I do.”

This contradicts the Word of God in every way.

The Lord condemns the idolatry of sports (Jeremiah 11:13).  Those who are born of the Spirit of God do the things that the Spirit leads them to do (Romans 8:14).  I don’t find the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, teachers on a football field.

Christians do not lie or deceive others.

Apparently, Patrick Mahomes and his worshippers did not know that Scripture is clear in this matter when it tells us:

“A false witness will not go unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.” -Proverbs 19:9

Furthermore, the reason that his worshippers posted this meme was an attempt to justify themselves with the deceptive and unjustifiable acts of one that they worship.

In conclusion: Do not deceive yourselves into believing the Mahomes does not know what he is doing.  He just signed a 450 million dollar deal with the NFL.  This is where his heart is and it is who he serves (Matthew 6:21), so much so that he is willing to deceive others into believing what he clearly is not.

There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love. —Washington Irving

Friendship improves happiness and abates misery, by the doubling of our joy and the dividing of our grief. —Marcus Tullius Cicero

Tears are the silent language of grief.  —Voltaire

The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.  —Psalm 34:18-19

Many of us are feeling weighed down with overwhelming grief at what is transpiring, not only in our country, but worldwide, and especially with the evil of Hamas, the Houthis and Hezbollah attacking God’s people, Israel.

The loss of so many blessings and freedoms awaken us each day with a morbid fear of what will come next.  Not only is our country failing, but as we age, personal losses take a toll.

Friends my age say we lived through the best of times, and if I look back, I can say yes, many years were wonderful.  But now I find myself crying out to the Lord and weeping more often than not.

The outlook seems so dreary.  Yet I know that the Lord has His plans and no matter what, we win with Him.  Yet I feel as though I’m drowning in the loss of freedoms, of friends, of trust and in hope for the future.

Thankfully, my husband always makes me laugh or I’d be sobbing all day long because of the evil that has become so staggering.  What do people do without the Lord?  I can’t imagine.

This article shares my heart wrenching feelings for two families. I felt that if I expressed my deep sadness on paper, perhaps the Lord would lift my grief.

Sadness and Loss

When I was in my late 30s or early 40s, my sweet maternal gramma was opening a note from her cousin who was an artist.  He had sent a small colored pencil drawing and it was a lovely scene.  My gram said to me, “The worst thing about growing old is losing family and friends.”

Gramma was so right.  So many of our friends are gone, and so many have lost their spouses.  The grief is overwhelming for those left alone, and try as we might to help, no one but the Lord can ease the sorrow of losing a life partner.  I watched it with my mom and I watched it with my grandparents and many dear friends.  Call those friends for lunch, go shopping with them, send them cards or occasional flowers. Love and caring are so needed through the lonely days of heartbreaking loss.

My husband and I live in a very small community.  Down the street from us were two elderly people, Henry and Carol, who are dear friends.  Both had lost their first spouses and knew each other from church.  Maybe 10 or more years ago, they married and Carol sold her home and moved into Henry’s home.  During the Covid years, Carol came down with the virus and recovered in a week, even though in her 80s.  Her husband refused to sleep in another bedroom in case Carol needed him, and he never contracted Covid.  Our Lord is good!

When the Covid “vaccines” came out, Henry had them both get them.  A year later Carol, who had never been on a medication in her life, had a stroke while driving to pick up Henry from dialysis.  She ended up in hospital and then in rehab, and then home again.  They had to rely on church friends to be drivers for Henry as Carol was no longer allowed to drive.

Another year passed and Carol was diagnosed with congestive heart failure.  She’s now on added medications.

Recently, Henry’s two remaining children urged them to go into assisted living.  Carol did not want to do that, and didn’t want to leave their home, but ultimately this is what happened.  Henry lost his one daughter several years back and he said many times that she was the only daughter who had grown into a wonderful woman; he didn’t have much use for his son and the other daughter.  Those two seem driven by greed and both of them speak ill of their father and his second wife.

The son and daughter cleaned Henry and Carol’s house out and had an estate sale.  One of Carol’s friends would drive her to the house to see if there was anything else she wanted before it was gone, but Henry’s two children became angry with her and disallowed her to enter her own home.  The house will be sold to pay for the cost of assisted living.

Henry and Carol are not happy where they are, but the dye has been cast and now there is no turning back.  These two people are locked away and will perish in this place they detest because of their age and Henry’s children.  Neither of Henry’s children work and both could have helped with their father and his wife to allow them to remain in their home.  Carol’s sons have had to go along with this as only one son lives close and he is still employed.

How sad this makes me for them both.  We will miss them both, but especially Carol, and I know how desperate she feels.  She is no longer independent and cannot have any time for herself away from people or even Henry.  My heart breaks for them.

Cancer Diagnosis and Fenbendazole

Our neighbor next door is in his early 50s, and his wife is in her late 40s.  Both are still working and they have no children.  Joe is a smoker and every night he imbibes red wine.  Nothing wrong with that except now he has lung cancer.  His wife has always worked in medical offices, and she noticed that Joe was coughing more than normal.  She sent him for tests.

At first, he was diagnosed with pneumonia and was given medications and inhalers.  The inhalers gave him kidney infections (a side effect of the brand).  When he recovered, he was sent for further testing and over a period of six to eight months he finally received the diagnosis of lung cancer in one lung in an area that is inoperable.  Oncologists have him on 27 weeks of chemo with a port going into the lung.  He was told to stop smoking, but we still see him with cigarettes.  Radiation follows the chemo and then removal of the one lung.  His wife, Bonnie, is pleased that cancer is only in one lung.  Joe doesn’t have any extra meat on his bones, so these treatments will really be difficult.

There are some amazing results with Fenbendazole in treating cancers; it’s another anti-parasitic like Ivermectin.  In fact, ABC interviewed a man who was told that his cancer had spread.  Watch the video with Joe Tippens talking about being diagnosed with lung cancer, given three months to live, and then being cured with Fenbendazole and vitamins.  Six years later he is still alive.

In Dr. David Williams’ important eight-page article, A Cure for Cancer, Hidden in Plain Sight he writes about Fenbendazole.  If you have cancer, or you know anyone who has cancer, give them this article.

Dr. Williams explains what happened to Joe Tippens.

“Two days later, Joe contacted his friend, a large animal veterinarian, who had posted a story online about a scientist working for Merck pharmaceuticals in the veterinary division. The scientist happened to be testing the effects of their existing products on mice that had various cancers. That’s when she discovered that one of their dog products (a dewormer) was 100 percent effective. This same scientist had stage 4 brain cancer and, like Joe, was also given three months to live. She started taking the dog dewormer and six weeks later, she was clear of the cancer.”

In 2002, while working at MD Anderson, Dr. Tapas Mukhopadhyay and his colleagues reported that mebendazole elicited a potent antitumor effect on human cancer cell lines both in vitro and in vivo.  It is a sister product to Fenbendazole and is typically found in deworming products for humans.

He went further in 2012 and published another study showing that fenbendazole was a potent compound for inhibiting the growth of cancer cells without doing any harm to or affecting the growth of normal cells.

Again in 2018, Dr. Mukhopadhyay published yet another study highlighting fenbendazole as a safe and inexpensive anthelmintic drug possessing “efficient antiproliferative activity” in human cancer cells. (This basically means it inhibits the growth of cancer cells.)

In that same report the doctor stated that FDA and others had published pre-clinical data on toxicology studies showing that dosages several times the approved dosages had no adverse side effects in animals.

MD Anderson isn’t the only facility that has knowledge of fenbendazole.

Dr. Williams writes, “In 2009, researchers at Johns Hopkins evaluated various drugs for treatment of glioblastoma—the most common brain cancer in adults. It is very aggressive, with the average survival 11 to 15 months, and it is considered incurable. They implanted the cancer cells into the brains of mice, which is the normal procedure in these types of studies. Before implanting the cells, however, these particular mice were treated for pinworms with fenbendazole. The brain cancer did not develop. It never grew.”

Stanford Medical Center reports that Fenbendazole is a completely safe and effective antineoplastic agent that can be repurposed for human use in treating genitourinary malignancies.

On page six, Dr. Williams gives Joe Tippens’ protocol with 222 mg. Fenbendazole daily and three other vitamin supplements.

In a recent Canada Free Press article, it included a video of a Marine who had chemo, radiation and surgery but it had not stopped his stage 4 colon cancer. He was told by his oncologist to call Hospice.  Kevin Hennings’ sister called him and told him to try Fenbendazole.  He tells the story, how he took both Fenbendazole and Ivermectin and is now cancer free.

Joe and Bonnie were given all of this information.  I don’t believe they watched any of the videos or read Dr. Williams’ article.  They said they’d stick with chemo, radiation and the removal of one lung.

I’ve laid in bed at night thinking that if only he’d start on the Fenbendazole protocol now, he may save his lung from being removed and cure himself of the cancer.  Instead, he’ll feed the cancer with the sugar in his evening wine, when he most likely could cure the disease and save his lung.

Joe Tippens is a foody and he never stopped eating whatever he wanted, yet the cancer was still destroyed.

My heart breaks because there is a possible cure for Joe, but they still trust the Medical Industrial Complex and the standard poison, burn and cut treatments for cancers.

Conclusion, Our Lord’s Love

In David’s imprecatory Psalm 56:8-9, he is crying out to the Lord.  He says, “Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?  When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.”

David begins this sad psalm with the words “Be gracious to me, O God, for man tramples on me; all day long an attacker oppresses me.” The Philistines had captured David in Gath, and David was, at the time he wrote this psalm, a prisoner of war, and he had reason to cry and be sorrowful. David says that his struggles are recorded in God’s book (verse 8), and he asks God to put his tears in His bottle.

The idea behind the keeping of “tears in a bottle” is remembrance. David is expressing a deep trust in God, that God will remember his sorrow and tears and will not forget about him. He says, in the midst of this troubling time, “When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: This I know; for God is for me.” (Psalm 56:9) and in verse 11, he states, “In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.”

The Lord remembers all the things that happen in our lives, including the suffering endured for His sake. In fact, there are many instances in Scripture of God’s recognition of man’s suffering. God is a tender-hearted Father to us, a God who feels with us and weeps with us, “And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows.”  (Exodus 3:7)

If we believe the promises of God, we must wait upon Him, long for Him daily, listen to Him in our quiet times, look to Him for our every need, and truly live for Him throughout our lives no matter what trials come.

He hears every cry of those who belong to Him.

“I argue very well. Ask any of my remaining friends. I can win an argument on any topic against any opponent. People know this, and steer clear of me at parties. Often, as a sign of their great respect … they don’t even invite me.”  —Dave Barry

A couple of weeks ago I watched a mentoring-type video (no longer available, as its creator only keeps these up for 72 hours, for reasons of his own) on the theme of how to win any argument. As a one-time logic instructor (ghost out of my past) and a narrative warrior (sort of, kind of, my glorious present), I was fascinated!

Intellect versus Basic Beliefs and Mental Prisms

The presenter focused on the difference between intellect and basic beliefs. Intellect is how smart you are, sometimes reflected in strings of university-gained credentials. In my experience, people who are unquestionably smart — some of them light years ahead of me in their specialties — can still believe some incredibly stupid things outside those specialties. Or so they seem!

Basic beliefs are often a product of unconscious conditioning. The process gets started in childhood, long before the child develops a capacity to rationally evaluate an idea or belief system. A few develop this capacity as they reach adulthood, and the results overturn a lot of what they grew up believing.

This happened in my case, and in other folks I’ve numbered among friends and acquaintances over the accumulated years.

Most others sleepwalk into adulthood still seeing everything through the mental prism supplied by the belief system they were immersed in as children and never learned to question.

What they see, they see only in ways that reinforce their belief system. Logicians call this confirmation bias. What doesn’t reinforce their basic beliefs, they often won’t see at all.

That calls forth the perennial question: what happens when people with different belief systems meet, start interacting, and discover how different they are from one another? They have different narratives. Each will have all sorts of questions for the other, but few for themselves.

All too many such interactions descend into sarcasm and ridicule. Examples permeate daily newspapers, letters to the editor, comments sections, blogs, and mostly unmoderated online forums. Very productive stuff!

The unpleasant truth: where basic beliefs are concerned, persuading people to change their minds using intellectual arguments is extremely difficult, and if others aren’t open to being persuaded, it isn’t doable at all. Those across the aisle won’t hear, because they can’t hear. That mental prism I mentioned is screening out everything you’re saying. If you double down, you’re only going to drive them away. This is why most arguments over politics and religion (and sex) are lose-lose propositions.

This applies directly to the narrative wars we’re in.

The Narrative Wars

I don’t doubt that a lot of urbanized, left-leaning foot soldiers in corporate media, the legal system, the entertainment industry, and of course academia, are scratching their heads at Donald Trump’s continued popularity despite those 91 felony charges and civil suits that so far have cost him (on paper, anyway) around half a billion dollars. Trump remains the Republican base’s favorite. That same base is dismissing Nikki Haley as George W. Bush in a dress.

The present-day GOP base’s firm belief is that the allegations against Trump are political, and hence invalid.

What’s the basic belief system here? For many, it’s that they’ve been thrown to the wolves by an Establishment (large corporations including former employers as well as the federal government) that couldn’t care less about them and proves this with its insults about, e.g, “deplorables.”

And since most are white, they see Establishment policies like Diversity-Equity-Inclusion which includes everyone except them, as disadvantaging them educationally, careerwise, religiously, culturally.

A recent group of academics — political scientists, I hear, led by a guy with the unlikely name of Brandon Rottinghaus — has ranked the presidents. They put Abraham Lincoln at the top of their list as the greatest U.S. president. Guess who they relegated to the bottom. I probably don’t have to tell you.

The GOP base is going to respond to what they regard as yet another provocation that this is the best reason they’ve seen this week why no one should pay attention to woke academics.

I honestly believe the academics, and many of their counterparts in media and elsewhere, see themselves as trying to secure “our endangered democracy,” i.e., the “democratic institutions” that constitute “our” Establishment.

If the divisions are this intractable, how does one win any argument? How do you cross the conceptual gulf created by the narrative wars?

You Can’t Win, So You Shouldn’t Try

The unfortunate answer: you don’t.

Your best bet — unless you’re in the business of writing about this sort of thing, like I am — is not to begin arguing.

Remember the old rhyme: a man convinced against his will, is of the same opinion still.

Most people are going to believe what they want to believe. They are just following their childhood imprinting.

This will tell them that most of the time they can trust the authorities, at least on “important stuff” including governance. They are going to reinterpret whatever evidence you present in terms of what that mental prism allows them to see.

And speaking of evidence (since every day I see phrases like so-and-so claimed without evidence that…), those locked into agendas or serving such will demand evidence, or imply lack of such, when confronted with something they don’t want to believe. If you point to evidence, they’ll move the goalposts. They’ll either dismiss your claim, denying that it exists or reinterpreting it to fit their prism. They’ll then tell you, “there’s no evidence.”

Continuing the argument is a loser’s game.

If it’s something they believe, or want to believe, they couldn’t care less about evidence.

Example: corporate media and the entire deep state behind it want to believe Vladimir Putin is responsible for Russian political prisoner Alexei Navalny’s death last week. No one appears to have noticed that nothing, no direct chain of causality, connects Putin to Navalny’s death.

Meanwhile, speaking of political prisoners, no one in “legacy” media even mentions the ongoing effort to extradite Julian Assange to the U.S. to face trial for the “crime” of exposing deep state war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan spread across two administrations, one of an Establishment Republican, the other an Establishment Democrat.

Their mental prisms simply won’t let them see it!

See how this works?

Flat-Earthism and Other Christian Mental Prisms

Among my Christian friends are a few folks who now think the Earth is flat.

They think Biblical references to a “firmament in the heavens” (Genesis) and God’s “laying the foundations of the world” (Job) are literal and not figurative, and require a flat Earth.

It’s clear: I’m not going to argue them out of this belief, and I’ve learned not to try.

One of my beliefs is that God created a world that ultimately makes sense, at least some of its truths discoverable by physical science, because He created us with intellects capable of such an endeavor. I don’t see how the technological civilization we’ve built over the past few centuries would have been possible, were this false. But that’s just me.

I’m prepared to respond to claims about the Earth being flat with something like, “That’s what you think? How interesting!” And then dropping it.

Incidentally, I also don’t think there’s going to be a “rapture.” This, it seems to me, is based on an elementary misreading of II Thess 4:16 – 5:2, combined with Matthew 24. My reference here is typically to Gary DeMar’s Myths, Lies & Half-Truths: How Misreading Their Bibles Neutralizes Christians (2000).

I think that when whatever happens, happens, Christians are going to be clobbered right along with everyone else — in the short term, anyway.

Guess what? I’ve never convinced anyone of this, either. I don’t try. (Maybe DeMar, unlike myself a real theologian, had better results disputing dispensationalism.)

Wisdom: A Theory

Wisdom — that which a trained philosopher such as myself is supposed to “love” — surely includes the insight (among others) that humans are more emotional than rational. It has been understood at least since the Scottish philosopher David Hume wrote of it in his Treatise of Human Nature (1730s) that emotions are more powerful motives to action than reason. Most if not all worldview beliefs are held for emotional and not rational reasons. In most cases, it does not occur to the believer that his worldview could be false.

This is not to say that reasons are irrelevant, or that persuasion is utterly impossible. But most of the time, what I said above applies: there will be goalpost-moving and reasons either won’t be seen or won’t be seen as decisive.

You have to decide if making an effort is worth your time and energy. That is going to depend on your situation: who are you trying to persuade, and why?

Atheists are convinced that a complete world-explanation is possible without a God. Okay….

In my 60-something years of experience, the atheists I’ve known have usually been more obsessed with God, Christ, religion, etc., than I ever thought of being. I’ve come to find this phenomenon — well — interesting.

I noticed this back in the ‘00s’ when I was dating a woman who confided to me that she didn’t believe in God. At some point I must have said I was a believer. Both of us were supporting Dr. Ron Paul for the 2008 GOP nomination. It’s how we met. But somehow, despite the many practical problems involved in trying to sell reluctant Republicans on Dr. Paul’s messages about the Federal Reserve, the debt bubble that even then was starting to blow up in our faces (think: 2008), the American war machine, etc., every conversation we had somehow went back to religion. I wasn’t the one bringing it up.

The relationship ended after she accused me of “talking down” to her. I was surprised it lasted as long as it did (over a year).

Wisdom also includes knowing the difference between a person’s deeply held beliefs which have become part of their identity versus workaday problems that come our way, about which we can agree are problems (the Paul campaign gave us plenty of those!).

At that point in my own development I’d not yet realized the harsh truth: Dr. Paul was far too intellectual for the emotion-driven American public.

Trump succeeded where Dr. Paul failed because he connected with people on an emotional level. Did he not seem to understand their problems and confidently tell them, beginning back in 2015, “I can fix this!”

Problem-Solving: The Biggest Problem We Face

We humans are, in a very general sense of the term, problem-solvers. The world presents us with an abundance of problems to solve. Some of us get very good at problem-solving in our respective niches. One way of getting rich — or so I am told — is to solve a problem and be able to sell your solution to a lot of people, or to a corporation.

Among our biggest present-day problems are the narrative wars. My counsel, increasingly, is: instead of arguing, walk away. Become independent in as many areas of your life as you can: financial, in terms of food production, in terms of health and safety. Bring family on board to the greatest extent you can (hopefully you’re not “yoked” to a spouse who doesn’t “get it”). Identify like-minded others you can work with locally.

Forget about those obviously aligned with the Establishment. If you can’t get local representatives on board, forget about them.

Ignore leftist pronouncements. Ignore what “LGBTQIAZYXWV+” types are doing if it’s not affecting you or your family. You don’t have a moral obligation to save the world.

If you direct your limited energies into activities you can control, you might soon be in a position to help others.

I don’t know that this it solves the biggest problem, which gives me the most sleepless nights.

And this is?

Science fiction writer Robert A. Heinlein’s character Lazarus Long put it this way:

Political tags — such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth — are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire.

Behind the narrative wars and specifics such as Trump versus Biden is this much deeper clash: between that minority that feels compelled to control whole populations, versus those who want to be left alone.

Whatever actions the latter take have to include defense of their turf. They can’t assume that if they’re nice to the wolves, the wolves will stop being wolves and be nice right back. That’s not how the world works.

Worse still: today’s majority doesn’t much care if they’re controlled, so long as they have sports, Netflix, TikTok, and beer.

Which means: those standing on their demand to be left alone constitute another minority. The “silent majority” some appeal to simply doesn’t exist.

A Remnant

It might be helpful, or at least calming, to realize that both this clash and the dilemmas posed by mass indifference are as old as the human race itself. The prophet Isaiah faced them, when God commanded him to go to a corrupted and decadent Ninevah and preach what the corporatists of his day, were there any, would doubtless have called a message of doom-and-gloom.

God implied that he’d not be listened to and would be lucky if he got out with his hide intact. “Why bother?” he might have asked. The answer:

Unless the Lord of hosts had left to us a very small remnant, we would have become like Sodom, we would have been made like Gomorrah (Isaiah 1:9).

See Albert Jay Nock’s amazing essay “Isaiah’s Job.”

There’s a Remnant out there, a third minority within the majority. Nock wrote of the Remnant:

They are obscure, unorganized, inarticulate, each one rubbing along as best he can. They need to be encouraged and braced up because when everything has gone completely to the dogs, they are the ones who will come back and build up a new society; and meanwhile, your preaching will reassure them and keep them hanging on. Your job is to take care of the Remnant, so be off now and set about it.

Today’s Remnant has the Internet. They need not be unorganized and inarticulate. Many are probably awake (not “woke”!) and aware. That’s who we are writing for, on Substack, independent sites like NewsWithViews.com, and others.

It’s helpful to realize that history moves in cycles. Civilizations rise. They forget the attitudes, aptitudes, and values that made their rise possible. The majority of their people grow soft, complacent, and entitled. Those motivated by power then move. Initially they meet with little resistance. Civilizations become divided and decadent. The power-hungry encourage both, because divided and decadent populations are easier to control. But they can’t control the Remnant. The Remnant are neither powerful nor power-hungry, though. They can’t prevent a civilizational downturn, or decline.

We’re definitely in a downturn, as consolidations of wealth and power grow and freedom shrinks. Today’s Remnant is still our best hope for Renewal and Rebuilding. Its members don’t think in terms of civil war. They aren’t violent. I’ve inveighed against thinking in such terms. Civil war, if it happened on U.S. soil under today’s circumstances (“blue” versus “red”; urban versus rural; ethnicity against ethnicity) would be nasty and brutal.

The powerful would be the only victors.

Wisdom thus lies in realizing that in the end, no civilization based on accumulated monies and power has ever endured. It invariably falls from within. A “new world order” based on a Great Reset (or a Great Taking) would be no exception. Let’s see to it that the Remnant is ready. This means forgetting about convincing those on the other side, or any majority, with intellectual arguments, and instead reaching out to those who are willing and able to build a future based on responsible freedom.

February 26, 2024

Right before the 2022 election selection, the career criminal in the WH decided for votes to “forgive” college student loans.  Well, since Biden has advanced from dementia (which the corrupt DNC KNEW when they ran him in 2020) to Stage 1 Altzheimer’s, anyone with an open mind can see that befuddled old man is not in charge.  Old Joe could care less about the hardship of student loans.

No question for those who fully understand the game being played, dirty Marxist traitor and yet another constitutionally ineligible individual to hold the office of president, can see Hussein Obama and his underlings are running the show.  Of course, Obama takes his marching orders from the shadow government kingpins.

There are some historical and legal facts Americans must understand.  First, no where in Art. II, Section 2 does it give any president under our Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land, any authority to sign unconstitutional bills into law, independently create an agency or cabinet.  That includes the Federal Department of Education.  Way back in 1867, President Andrew Johnson signed the Department of Education Act in 1867.  Johnson was told the act was ‘harmless’.

Of course, it rumbled and tumbled around from agency to agency gradually becoming worthless.  Its role back then was described as a tool to collect data and information from schools and teaching methods that allegedly would create great school systems.

Give tyrants an inch and they take a mile; that first Dept. of Ed morphed into the Office of Education via the unconstitutional Dept. of Health, Education and Welfare which then split off the education branch.  Then in 1979, peanut pusher, do-gooder, Jimmy Caaarter [D] signed the unconstitutional Department of Education Organization Act into “law”.

Second, no where in Article 1, Sec. 8 of the U.S. Constitutional (Legislative Authority) does it give a scintilla of authority for Congress or any agency they create to hand out loans.  Not to banks, school students, Macy’s, GM/Chrysler, Ducks Unlimited or small businesses to name a few.  Go read it.  Example:  “To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries;”  Promote does not mean fund.

Ah, I know what you’re thinking but Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are congressional charters.  Again, nowhere in Article 1, Sec. 8 of the U.S. Constitution, Legislative Powers of Congress, can one find the authority to set up congressional charters.  Forget the free-for-all  “general welfare” clause.  The best analysis is on this page with several sections:  General Welfare Clause – Tenth Amendment Center

The whole purpose in drafting what became the U.S. Constitution was to ensure a LIMITED FORM OF REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT.  No, not the Republican Party and not a democracy which is mob rule.  The ‘Founding Fathers’ were firm in their commitment to a limited government. For decades we’ve had – thanks to both parties – a bloated monster destroying our once great republic and about half the adult population now dependent and subservient for mother government’s financial largess.

Ronnie Reagan campaigned on the promise of abolishing the unconstitutional Federal Dept of Education.  Once elected, those promises blew away in the wind of politics and voters who care nothing about the Constitution.

“11.  Because we trust our fellow Americans, rather than centralized government, we believe the people, acting through their State and local elected officials, should have control over programs like education and welfare – thereby pushing power away from official Washington and returning it to the people in their communities and states.”  1996 Republican Party Platform which has been shredded by RINO’s and cowards in Congress and our Texas state legislature.

When presidential candidate Bob Dole [R] ran, he clearly and publicly stated it was time to get rid of the Federal Dept of Ed.  Of course, by that time the PRIVATE teacher’s unions pretty much controlled that cabinet and they vote.  They are a major factor in destroying public education in this country. 

In 2010, 111 incumbent House Republicans (and 12 senators) supported getting rid of the Federal Dept of Education.  Most are gone now.  Constitutionally grounded Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) brought forth a bill to get rid of that unconstitutional cabinet many years ago and has reintroduced it session after session after session including this one:  H.R. 899[1].

“Unelected bureaucrats in Washington, D.C., should not be in charge of our children’s intellectual and moral development,” Massie said two years ago. “States and local communities are best positioned to shape curricula that meet the needs of their students. Schools should be accountable. Parents have the right to choose the most appropriate educational opportunity for their children, including home school, public school or private school.”

When Republicans held the majority in both the House and Senate under Trump less than two dozen Republicans supported getting rid of that unconstitutional cash cow propaganda operation funded by BORROWED money from Congress’ candy store, the FED.  States are under NO obligation to have any ties with that cabinet and should cut them off.

Massie’s bill will die again this December.  Another unconstitutional cabinet with a 2024 budget of $90 BILLION BORROWED DOLLARS WITH INTEREST.  We pay federal “income” taxes for education.  We pay either personal state or sales tax (here in Texas we have no personal state income tax) for education.  But, since the people’s purse is over $34 TRILLION in debt there’s no money.  Dial up the FED.

Contractual legal responsibility

When someone signs a contract to repay a loan they are expected to do so.  Automobile, motorcycle, home, piece of land, personal loan through a bank.  When the Federal Dept of Ed started making unconstitutional loans to students, they then became loaded with debt before they even graduate – if they ever do.  It sickens me so many parents push their child(ren) into a community college, university, state college who really don’t want to go.  Oh, but the parents!  Our son/daughter is the first in our family to go to college!  But, we can’t afford it, so let them take on massive debt in the form of loans and the Dept of Ed is very so happy to make those illegal loans while so many students drop out and still owe the money they signed a contract to repay.

What percentage of college students drop out after the first year? How many students drop out of college after a few years?  Fairly consistent since 2021 is every year it’s about a 40% college dropout rate.  As of September 2023, outstanding student loan debt was $1.74 TRILLION dollars.  Think about that and why so many either can’t or won’t repay what they owe when they signed for the loan.  Why pay back a $20,000 student loan when you dropped out during the second year?

In June 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court said Biden had no legal authority to cancel or reduce student debt loans.  Joe’s response?  I don’t give a damn what the Supreme Court says and continues to screw YOU the taxpayer:  Page 3, “(a) The text of the HEROES Act does not authorize the Secretary’s loan forgiveness program.”  Yet, it’s still going on.

Only Congress has the power to screw taxpayers for student loan “forgiveness”.  Attending college or a university in this country is ELECTIVE.  There is no law requiring any American to attend a college or university and besides the loans being unconstitutional since they are handed out by an unconstitutional cabinet, it is FLAT OUT MORALLY WRONG to let the borrower off the hook.

Do I want kids who truly want to attend an institution that used to be of “higher learning”?  Has student loan debt caused terrible financial problems for the student who can’t pay?  Yes, very much so and something he/she should have considered very carefully before signing a legal loan obligation.  How many hundreds of thousands since those loans started being handed out like candy on Halloween end up with useless degrees and can’t find jobs?  They end up flipping burgers or delivering pizzas.  Nothing wrong with working for an honest day’s pay, but when you’ve got $75,000 or more in college debt loans, well, you get the picture.

Those with student loan debt working for minimum wage can’t make the payments or refuse to even try because their degree in some idiotic field that was the fad and oh, so woke now can’t get them a cup of coffee.  It’s called buyer’s remorse.  But, that does not erase their legal obligation.  I truly do feel sorry for young adults who made such a bad decision but it’s not my responsibility to loan you money to attend college any more than it’s moral to force you through taxation to make my home mortgage payment.  No one forced me to buy my house and when I signed the loan documents, it legally obligates me to pay back the principle plus whatever interest is attached to the loan.

How would you like it if career criminal Biden declares a mortgage forgiveness for homeowners struggling to make payments?  You will end up paying for that debt in more taxes (even though you rent because you can’t afford a house) just like the student loans being forgiven.  Right now, numbers of bankruptcies are climbing and banks once again just like 2008 onward are starting to build inventories of repossessed homes.

There’s something many don’t know:  How Student Loan Default Affects Your Social Security Benefits – “When you default on federal student loans, you should know the government will find a way to get their money back and make your finances much more difficult to manage until they do. For example, you can get sued and have your wages garnished at work—but that’s far from the extent of it.

“According to the U.S. Department of Education, defaulting on student loans can also lead you to have your tax refunds and federal benefits payments (like Social Security payments) withheld and applied to your defaulted loans through a process called Treasury Offset.5”

Biden did it for votes but the U.S. Supreme Court said no.  No problem, Biden’s lackeys are still doing it and the hell with the court’s decision.  Why? Because no one is trying to stop it. (Empasis mine.)

The Supreme Court rejects Biden’s plan to wipe away $400 billion in student loan debt, June 30, 2023 – “The court held that the administration needed Congress’ endorsement before undertaking so costly a program. The majority rejected arguments that a bipartisan 2003 law dealing with national emergencies, known as the HEROES Act, gave Biden the power he claimed.”

Biden cancels $1.2 billion in student debt six months ahead of schedule – President Biden has now bailed out more than 3.9 million student loan borrowers without an act of Congress, Feb. 21, 2024

So where is Congress?  Shush.  It’s an election year.

My question: Can Congress sue?  I’m not a lawyer and have no legal training but I can read, research and more importantly, understand what I’m reading.  (Emphasis mine below.)

Student Loans, Congress, and Standing: How the House Can Sue the Biden Administration, Sept 1, 2022, The Congressional Institute

“Summary: President Joe Biden’s plan to forgive student loans exceeds his authority under the Constitution and Federal law—an encroachment on Congress’s authority. To reaffirm congressional authority, the House should employ the Boehner Doctrine and vote to sue the Biden Administration. Though most House Democrats may support the President, moderate Democrats may join the minority Republicans by voting for a resolution to authorize a lawsuit.

“It is fairly easy to come up with policy reasons why President Biden’s plan to forgive $400 billion worth of college debt is bad.  The dollar amount of this loan forgiveness will likely exceed the entire amount of the much-ballyhooed, if wrongly named, Inflation Reduction Act. A loan is a legal contract that people willingly enter. What other loans are people just allowed to walk away from without declaring bankruptcy?

“It is deeply wrong to make people who could not go to college pay for people who do. From an equity perspective, it is helping the well-to-do at the expense of hard-working men and women. It is another $400 billion infusion into the economy that will just make inflation worse – and it will also make it last longer. But perhaps most importantly, forgiving this debt requires a law passed by Congress, not an unconstitutional presidential executive action.

Standing and the Student Loans

“The problem with challenging the Biden Administration in this is, how to stop it?  Plaintiffs in a lawsuit must demonstrate that they have standing to sue, which means that the defendant’s actions must have injured them, and the courts can right the alleged wrong.

“Who then, according to the courts, has the legal standing to file suit against the Biden Administration?

“Normally, a private citizen or organization would sue the government, asking Judicial Branch to halt some action on the part of the Executive Branch. Could a private citizen who is not eligible for the loan repayment argue that they were injured on the grounds that the plan transfers a massive debt from one group of citizens to the population as a whole?

Rest at link.

Please note here in Texas we have what’s known as taxpayer’s standing which is what allowed me to sue the Secretary of State to keep any candidates for U.S. Senator off the ballot because I had iron clad proof the Seventeenth Amendment was not ratified by enough states.  Two states short and the corrupt have gotten away with it thanks to cowardly judges here in Texas.

In summary, you’re struggling to put healthy food on the table while inflation is eating US alive.  Struggling to pay your health care premiums, auto insurance or rent while Americans with student loan debt are now having their debt forgiven paid for by you.

I’m sorry for Americans at any age who took on unconstitutional student loans but it was your decision and it’s your responsibility to honor the debt, not mine or my sister or my neighbor who didn’t go to college but rather works in construction or went to cosmetology school.  I know this will anger those who are counting on getting their student debt wiped out, but put the shoe on the other foot and then hate me for writing this column.

Where is the U.S. House of Representatives?  Holding a razor thin margin, I believe they can file a lawsuit now and get it on the docket.

I MUST add this because several primaries are coming up and then Super Tuesday, March 5^th with 16 states primaries; see schedule here.  There is, IMHO, only ONE choice for Doanld Trump to make regarding a VP pick.  It’s is NOT Vivek! Rama-smarmy in bed with the commies (his pharma businesses) who looks down his nose at you.  Do not be fooled by him.  A very polished hustler.  Rama-smarmy has attached himself to Trump like glue.  It’s all about money – for himself.

Tulsi Gabbard no one wants.  Yes, she served our country and is against wars for profit but she is NOT a natural born citizen and therefore ineligible to be president.  While in Congress did nothing other than go along to get along.

Sen. Tim Scott seems like a genuinely nice man.  He believes the states should NOT address the killing of the unborn.  How unfortunate.  Supports “free” trade which has killed our ag, industrial and manufacturing sectors which made us the wealthiest debt free nation in all of history.  Supports one of Trump’s biggest mistakes:  USMCA.  Once again, those advising him suckered Trump on the USMCA.  Scott signed the term limit pledge:  12 years US. Senator and you’re gone.  Scott became a U.S. Senator in 2013.  That means he’s promised to leave by 2025.

Do NOT be fooled by S. Dakota guv, Miss Fashion Plate herself who never met a mirror she didn’t love.  Gov. Kristi Noem is NOT as popular as people think.  Good PR machine but I know people who live in S. Dakota and they do not support her for VP as well as many constitutional organizations.  When employers in Noem’s state demanded people take those deadly EXPERIMENTAL GENE THERAPY injections (passed off as COVID vaccines), Noem publicly stated if people didn’t like the mandates go find another job. Disgusting.

I caught a recent interview with her on either Clay & Buck or Hannity where she bragged about this program:  Noem’s Numbers Don’t Prove Real Change in Job Growth from Bad-Plumber Ads, Jan. 10, 2024.  She also vetoed a hemp legalization bill, a bill many lawmakers in her own party supported.  Very stupid.  HEMP: The Revolution America Needs to Prosper, Mine, U.S Observer Newspaper

Reality:  I am voting for Trump again but by the time he’s sworn in (unless the Democrat/Communist Party USA is able to pull of another steal), President-Elect Trump will be 78 years old.  (Born June 14, 1946).  Hopefully, he will live a longer life; he’s in good physical shape and mentally sharp as a tack as they say.  However, we are on God’s schedule not ours.

A VP is one heart beat from the Oval Office.  My personal and ONLY pick is Sen. J.D. Vance from Ohio.  Vance seriously opposed Trump in 2016 but like so many others, he watched Trump and everything he was trying to get done while fighting off his own party and corrupt judges (think the wall) and eventually has become a staunch supporter. Vance also firmly believes the 2020 election was stolen from Trump.  The bottom line for me is Vance is very intelligent; I watch C-SPAN hearings, I do research, serious research.  I follow voting records.

Not only is Vance very intelligent, but should it happen, Vance IMHO is the only individual who could step right into the presidency fully prepared.  I also believe Vance would work very well with Trump as they’re “on the same page”.  Very important when you consider what happened with Benedict Arnold, Mike Pence.  J.D. Vance is a rarity in DC.  He’s a fighter and not afraid of the shadow government (some call deep state).  Vance is a man of courage and integrity.  You may feel differently but I’m simply stating why I believe he should be Trump’s pick.

In politics, optics are a big deal.  J.D. Vance appeals to both men and women.  If you feel he would make the best choice for Trump, put it up on Trump’s social media platform NOW and maybe, just maybe, Trump will see how many Americans want Vance as his VP.  I do think there’s a good chance Trump will make a VP announcement after Super Tuesday and I pray it’s not Noem, Rama-smarmy, Scott, Gabbard or Byron Donalds.  DeSantis being thrown out there is just more noise.

Save your energy sending me nasty email.  I was a substitute school teacher for three years until the mask mandate and I said good-bye.  Even if I were a full-time teacher, I would never join a teacher’s union.  I’ve read a whole lot of books and articles on this from those deeply entrenched in trying to save America’s children from being dumbed down in public schools.

America is learning the devastating power of teacher unions – “Teacher unions are different from unions in the private sector. When they negotiate, they often sit across from bosses they helped elect through millions of dollars in campaign contributions, with parents and kids excluded from the process.”

For the past three years and two months, senile, decrepit and incompetent Joe Biden has invited 11 million illegal aliens to jump our borders—among them—Islamic terrorists, criminals, sex traffickers, drug cartel distributors, millions of fentanyl pills, perverts, mentally ill people, rapists and murderers from all over the world. Biden has transported them to cities across America to make our country the drug/criminal/terrorist destination-nation du jour.

Laken Riley, a 22 year old University of Georgia student, suffered a beating death by one of Joe Biden’s illegal alien criminals named Jose Ibarra from Venezuela. Police caught and arrested him for a major crime in “Sanctuary City” New York City a year ago, but let him go where he committed another crime, let him go, and then, off to Georgia where he killed Laken Riley.

Who killed Laken Riley? Answer: Joe Biden, New York Governor Kathy Hochul and NYC Mayor Eric Adams. All of them complicit in inviting and allowing criminal illegal aliens to travel with immunity throughout America. Not only that, those officials pay for all those criminals’ transport, housing, food and more. Excuse me: YOUR tax dollars pay!

We’re not talking about a “first time” event with the killing of Ms. Riley. Illegal aliens are now killing and raping women as they see our laws are not being enforced. Another killing occurred in Iowa.

Murder of Mollie Tibbets: “University of Iowa student Mollie Cecilia Tibbetts disappeared while jogging near her home in Brooklyn, Iowa. A month later, police identified 24-year-old Cristhian Bahena Rivera as a suspect in connection with the disappearance; surveillance footage showed Rivera’s car following Tibbetts on her jog. Rivera led police to the body of Tibbetts in a Poweshiek County cornfield on August 21. He was charged with first-degree murder. He is an illegal alien.”

Both those women lost their lives because of incompetent, corrupt and unethical mayors, governors, et al. Do they care? Answer: not a twit. Will they ever face charges for those American deaths they made happen?

It’s all on Joe Biden.

What about the incredibly incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan? What about Joe Biden’s incompetence killing 13 of our military personnel? Who was responsible for the sheer stupidity and incompetence of that event? Answer: Joe Biden and General Milley. Were either of them charged or held responsible? Answer: nope!

What happens, and it WILL HAPPEN, when the Islamic terrorists create another 9/11 in America? It could be dozens of minor 9/11’s where terrorist cut Americans’ heads off like they did in the streets of London. Or, it could be major act of taking out a power substation that feeds electricity into a big city. Without power, a big city would be thrown into chaos, death and mayhem. Or, any smart terrorist could poison the water supplies of a city.

That would all be on Joe Biden. He is the source, the reason and the power behind this invasion of our country. If anyone should be impeached immediately, it’s him. Most of our U.S. Congress should be impeached with him. Our country faces a cataclysmic future because of this invasion.

America Devolving Before Our Eyes

What about 100,000 kids from 14 to 25 dying from fentanyl and other drug overdoses, annually, for the past three years of Biden’s invasion of America by drug cartels? Who’s going to pay for those deaths?

Answer: not Biden.

Ironically, 38 percent of brainless Democrats want him to add another four years onto his presidency—-when he can’t put four coherent sentences together without a teleprompter. That same 38 percent want Biden’s handlers to continue directing America over a cliff. How stupid is it to give Ukraine over $100,000,000,000.00 worth of military equipment, but let our borders be overrun? Yet, those mindless democrats want Biden in for another four years—-so he can really finish America off!

How smart is it that $163,000,000,000.00 of our tax dollars, annually, are paying for those criminal border jumpers?

So, what happens when, not if, one of your family dies at the hands of terrorists or random illegals killing your daughter or son like Kate Steinle, Riley or Tibbets? What if your family is celebrating at Christmas when some Islamic couple kills your whole group like in San Bernardino, California? How do you replace your loved ones? How do you cry enough tears? How do you recover from the insanity, stupidity and senility of Joe Biden’s actions that got your loved ones killed?

Why are there “Sanctuary Cities” and “Sanctuary States”? Why are there THAT many stupid leaders? Why are we making America the “sacrificial lamb” of the 21st century trying to save the refugees of the world? Have you not seen Europe? It’s a friggin’ nightmare over there. They’ve got immigrants/terrorists/freeloaders/Islamic zealots destroying everything built up by Europeans over the centuries.

What happens when America features “No Go Zones” like Europe? What happens when the next 9/11 hits? Where will we escape? How will you mourn your dead family members?

“The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, we must think and act anew.” ~Abraham Lincoln

America, the land of liberty, has long been a beacon of hope and opportunity for people worldwide. Its founding principles – liberty, freedom, and justice – have shaped its identity. This foundation, laid by the framers, has come to be known as American Exceptionalism.

However, in the face of evolving challenges, it is imperative that we not only understand the concept but actively work to preserve and strengthen it for future generations.

When asked what kind of government the delegates had created, Benjamin Franklin famously replied, “A republic if you can keep it.” These words hold even greater significance as we confront a crucial juncture in our country’s history.

The slogan “Make America Great Again” is not merely a catchphrase; it embodies a call to action, a commitment to uphold the values that have made America exceptional. In recent years, however, these values have come under attack. The Obama/Biden administration failed to deliver its promises, leaving many Americans disillusioned and disheartened. To the leftists, failure is not only acceptable but expected.

Since Donald Trump announced his candidacy, the Democrats have launched one failed hoax after another in an attempt to derail his presidency. Their efforts, driven by fraudulent claims and partisan agendas, have only sought to erode the genuine efforts of a president with good intentions.

But now is not the time for despair. Our highest priority must be the preservation of our nation’s freedom. We have faced challenges before and emerged more robust, and we must do so again.

The threats we face today are manifold: encroaching Islamism, socialism, Marxism. These ideologies seek to undermine the very foundations of our society, threatening our individual liberty and prosperity. But we cannot afford to succumb to fear or complacency.

To combat these threats, it is crucial to articulate clear policy proposals that uphold American values. This includes:

♦ It is strengthening educational programs that promote an understanding of American history, values, and the principles of democracy.
♦ We are advocating for policies that support the free market and individual freedoms, thereby countering the collectivist ideologies that seek to undermine these principles.
♦ Promoting international cooperation and alliances that support the spread of democracy and the rule of law, thereby countering the global reach of authoritarian ideologies.

Freedom, in all its forms, is our greatest legacy. Throughout history, brave men and women have fought and died to protect it. From the battlefields of Europe to the jungles of the Far East, Americans have made countless sacrifices to safeguard our way of life.

In the not-too-distant past, we confronted and defeated the forces of Nazism, Fascism, and Communism. We stood firm against tyranny and oppression, refusing to waver in adversity. And now, we must once again rise to meet the challenges of our time.

The insidious threat of leftism, socialism, Islamism, and Marxism looms large, but we cannot afford to shrink from the fight. We must meet these challenges head-on, with courage and determination.

Now is the time to stand up and be counted. We cannot give up or give in. We must be willing to do whatever it takes to preserve our nation’s freedom and ensure a bright future for generations to come.

This will require unity, resolve, and a steadfast commitment to our core principles. We must be willing to defend our freedoms against all who seek to undermine them, whether foreign or domestic.

But we cannot do it alone. We need the support of every patriotic American who believes in the principles that make this country great. Together, we can overcome any challenge and emerge stronger than ever before.

For those who are concerned about the direction of the country, there are practical actions that can be taken to support the preservation of American values:

♦ Vote in elections, and this is a must.
♦ Participate in local community activities and public discourse to influence policy and public opinion.
♦ Educate yourself and others about the principles of American exceptionalism and the importance of defending these values.

Defending America against all enemies is not just a slogan but a solemn duty that falls on everyone. We must be willing to stand up for what is right, defend our freedoms, and ensure that America remains a shining beacon of liberty for the world to see.

Now is the time to rise to the occasion, embrace the challenges before us, and reaffirm our commitment to the principles that have made America the greatest nation on earth. United, we will prevail.

These profound words from John F. Kennedy still resonate deeply: “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.”

The United States of America has become the laughingstock of the world, with Joe Biden playing the role of our “president” in this macabre stage production put on by the Luciferian Globalists.  Indeed, one foreign news agency recently ran a headline referring to Biden as “President Mumblebub.”

He’s taken a lot of criticism for his actions — and inactions — as the so-called “leader” of the free world.  Since he took office, we’ve seen record-breaking deficit spending, a collapse of our nation’s infrastructure, the destruction of our major cities, record homelessness and drug use, the abandonment of our national borders — not to mention the highly-orchestrated and brilliantly-executed invasion of our nation by foreign enemies.  Over the past three years, we’ve also endured the “transgendering’ of our military, the weaponization of our so-called “justice system,” the persecution of political opponents, and unbridled government tyranny.

Some say Biden is incompetent, and I would have to agree.  The fact that Biden is suffering from dementia is obvious, as he garbles his words when speaking, cannot remember how or when his son, Beau, died, cannot remember the names of countries or world leaders, and shakes hands with the air as he wanders around the stage after speaking, until one of his handlers gathers him up and leads him away.

Recently, Special Counsel Robert Hur declined to prosecute Biden for his mishandling of classified documents stating that Biden “is an elderly man with a poor memory, who would be sympathetic to a jury.”  But Hur also added that Biden’s practices “present serious risks to national security.”  You think?!  So Biden, though clearly guilty, will not face prosecution.  But Trump will, even though the UNclassified documents found at Trump’s Mara-Lago estate were kept securely under lock and key, while the classified documents Biden held were found in deteriorating cardboard boxes in his Delaware garage and elsewhere.

In 2016,  FBI director James Comey also refused to prosecute Hillary Clinton, even though  he stated she had given false statements (in other words, she lied) during his investigation, and was likely guilty of at least 23 felonies, high crimes and misdemeanors.  It’s understandable that Comey refused to prosecute because he didn’t want to “commit suicide,” but this is just another example of our two-tiered “justice system.”  But I digress.

Anyone who thinks Biden’s in control of anything is sadly ignorant and deluded.  Biden has never had any authority of any kind in his 50+ years of being a professional politician.  He’s merely a cardboard cut-out and he’s only in the White House now because he’s the most easily manipulated “candidate” the DNC could come up with.

Anyone who truly thinks he won the 2020 election honestly and fairly is under the greatest of delusions.  Prior to that election, Biden himself openly stated, “We have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”  And he didn’t even campaign. His “rallies” consisted of a dozen people, sitting alone in chairs placed in circles, six feet apart.  Meanwhile, his opponent had tens of thousands of people, all eager to see and hear Trump speak, wherever he went.  No — regardless of what the “fact checkers” will tell you, and regardless of our lawless “justice system,” the 2020 election was absolutely and clearly rigged.  A stolen election.

And do you remember the recounts?  Republican election observers were banned from those — sheets of cardboard covering the windows while the so-called “recounts” took place.   It was all a tragic joke, yet allowed to happen…and now we have countless patriots in prison or dead because they simply took part in a “redress of grievances” on January 6…held for months and years without charges; forced into fake plea deals; driven to suicide by the unrelenting persecution of the Feds — just for being patriots who believe in the rule of law.

This is the nation we live in today.  One must go back to the 2008 presidential election to understand how we got here.  I clearly remember watching the news broadcasts that November night, seeing millions gathered to hear the newly-elected Obama speak.  Newscasters even called him the “New Messiah,” such was the blind adoration so many had for this man — a junior senator from Illinois.  I got chills as I watched so many “worshiping” this man, and I knew something truly demonic was happening.  He vowed to “fundamentally transform America” — and America hasn’t been the same since.

And there were so many unanswered questions.  Was he even an American?  Many investigated his birth certificate and found it to be fraudulent, though “fact-checkers” and the news media worked hard to debunk such claims as “conspiracy theories.”  He apparently graduated from Columbia University in 1983, but no one remembers seeing him there or recalls attending any classes with him.  At one point, a postal worker recalls an encounter he had with a young, arrogant (and creepy) Obama declaring he KNEW he was going to be “president of the United States” one day.

This was while Obama was living with Mary and Thomas Ayers, in a Chicago suburb.  Their son was Bill Ayers, the far-left militant organizer of the Weather Underground, a revolutionary group that sought to overthrow what they viewed as “American imperialism.”  Many came forward to say they remembered the young Obama frequenting homosexual bath houses in Chicago, having homosexual relations with countless partners, using pot and cocaine and never attending any college classes.  But then, he could do as he pleased. It was taken care of. He already knew he was being groomed to be “president” one day, and the Globalists — even back then — would see to it that it happened.

I could go into more detail; there’s much more that could be said.  But basically, Obama’s handlers faked his name, his religion, his “wife,” his kids, his birthplace, his nationality, his education and his career… and then he sealed his records in his very first executive order to stop Americans from finding out.

During the Obama years, we saw daily violent and deadly attacks by Muslims around the world and here in the US.  Early on, we saw him bow down to the king of Saudi Arabia, and he continued to kowtow to the Muslims throughout his time in the White House.  The complicit news media steadily drilled the phrase “a religion of peace,” into our collective heads on a daily basis, even as Islamic terrorists beheaded Christians, put them in cages and drowned them, put them in cages and burned them alive — every day, on live TV, in “living color.”

We also saw the Supreme Court decision to “legalize” homosexual so-called “marriage,” the destruction of private health insurance under “Obamacare,” the beginning of the “transgender” movement, and the furtherance of the Globalist “climate change” agenda.  I could go on, but the list is too extensive.

And it’s ongoing.  And that’s the point of this message.  This is Obama’s third term.  While we don’t know all the players that put Obama in power and who controls HIM, we do know that Obama is controlling Biden, as he has since at least 2008.  Do you doubt me?  Let’s look at who’s in the Biden administration…

Jake Sullivan is Biden’s National Security Advisor.  He was also Obama’s Deputy Assistant and director of Policy.  Antony Blinken is Secretary of State.  He was also Obama’s Deputy National Security Advisor and Deputy Secretary of State.  Alejandro Mayorkas, Biden’s Secretary of Homeland Security, was also Obama’s Director of US Citizenship and Immigration Services.  He also managed staffing the DOJ Criminal Division.

Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, was Obama’s Deputy Director of the CIA and later his Deputy National Security Advisor.  Biden’s Secretary of the Treasury, Janet Yellen, was Obama’s Chairman of the Federal Reserve.  Our Deputy Secretary of the Treasury is Adewale Adeyemo — a Nigerian, and Obama’s Deputy National Security Advisor for International Economics and later, head of the Obama Foundation.

Merrick Garland, the Attorney General, was an Obama nominee for Justice of the Supreme Court.  Tom Vilsack has been the Secretary of Agriculture under Biden and Obama.  Then we have Susan Rice, our current Director for Domestic Policy — Obama’s National Security Advisor and UN Ambassador.  Biden’s Special Envoy for Climate is John Kerry, Obama’s Secretary of State.

And bear in mind, folks, that Obama himself lives only two miles away from the White House.  If you want to know who’s pulling Biden’s strings, I hope this helps.  But Biden’s time is quickly coming to a close.  You see, the disastrous effects of the demonic Obama regime — the “fundamental transformation of America” — are wearing thin for most Americans.  Now the Communists are looking for ways to eliminate Biden, because it’s highly unlikely that the country will quietly accept another stolen election by a senile, incontinent old man with dementia that’s growing worse daily.  He’s become a liability.

The recent declaration by Robert Hur that Biden is “an elderly man with a poor memory and would be sympathetic to a jury” and also that he “presents serious risks to national security” was a very intentional statement.  Essentially, it officially disqualifies Sleepy Joe as a candidate.  All part of the plan…and all carefully scripted.

This is going to be a year like no other.  Very few expect Biden to be the nominee.  As hard as it may be to believe, Kamala Harris is even less popular than Joe Biden.  Some have speculated Gavin Newsom may be chosen.  But given his record as an ultra-liberal dictator in California, I’m afraid the cat’s out of the bag on him.  So, let’s see…who could they come up with that could possibly be convincing as a “winning” candidate.  Hmmm….  Michelle Obama!  Of course!  Big Mike!

Then the “fundamental transformation” can continue unabated. Yes, Michelle Obama.  Not only black, but also a woman, they say. (Not that gender is supposed to really exist anymore).   I’m only speculating, of course. But watch for something to happen by springtime or summer.  One thing’s for certain: they won’t be able to pull off another stolen election for Biden, not even with “the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”  Not even with the steady flow of millions of new voters coming illegally across our borders and becoming — not citizens — but registered Democrats, because of all the “free” stuff.

Now, I’ve said a lot here about Biden, Obama and even Hillary.  But, with the exception of two or three individuals, the Republicans are no better.  Our public servants all become multi-millionaires shortly after taking office.  How is this possible?  Ask yourself:  why is no one in Congress calling for a cease-fire or peace talks in Ukraine?  Why do we keep sending trillions of dollars there, even as we’re spending trillions just to cover the interest on our own national debt?  Why are our public servants so concerned about the security of the borders of other nations, while ours are left completely open?  It’s all about money, folks. The invasion, Ukraine, climate change, mandated jabs — all these things are lining the pockets of those who rule over us.  Once you understand that, everything else makes perfect sense.

I no longer refer to “Democrats” and “Republicans.”  Now, it’s “Communists” and “Politicians.” And 99% of them deserve the punishment given to those convicted of treason.

Before I close, a few words about Trump. He’s not our savior. Understand that. He didn’t and won’t solve America’s real problems. Remember, it was Trump that put the “Red Flag” gun laws into effect; it was Trump that “stood down” while our nation’s cities burned at the hands of BLM and ANTIFA. He did NOT drain the swamp. He was very pro-homosexual.  And he presided over the “Warp Speed” clot shot, mask mandates, shutdowns and lockdowns. I love the idea of national sovereignty, “America first,” and a return to morality and justice.  I’m sure you do too.  Trump is a figurehead representing those things, thus his popularity.  But we must realize that no man — not even Trump — can save us from the disaster we’ve allowed in our land. Our Savior is Jesus Christ, and our only hope is a return to God, in humility and repentance.  Without real, true national repentance, God’s hand of judgment on America will not relent.  This I know for sure.

February 25, 2024

But take heed; behold, I have told you everything in advance. —Mark 13:23

A new word has recently entered our vocabulary. That new word is Controligarch. Let’s define what that means. Many people are familiar with the word Oligarch. That word emerged in mainstream conversation from the ashes of the former Soviet Union. Russian Oligarchs were thought of as successful entrepreneurs that were able to navigate the difficult times the implosion of the Soviet Union resulted in. An oligarch is someone who has extreme wealth, usually billions of dollars. With this wealth comes influence. In addition to massive wealth and influence, comes power to change the minds of people who fashion regulations, codes, statutes, and laws. Many times, this influence and power is implemented clandestinely through lobbyists. Most Oligarchs do not like press coverage or fame. They are content to remain somewhat obscure to the public.

With that definition in mind, let’s discuss what Controligarch means. Individuals who fall under this definition are not dissimilar to Oligarchs with one exception. Controligarchs do not mind being in the public eye. They do not attempt to hide from public view and in fact, consider themselves as a type of champion of humanity and the earth’s environment we share. Many of the names are now familiar to most Americans – Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, George Soros, and Klaus Schwab to name just a few. Why would these men be considered Controligarchs? They are defined as such because they are using their extreme wealth to change our world. Gates for example, is buying up thousands of acres of farmland. Why would Gates do that? Is there any relationship between his drive to become the largest farmland owner in America, and his nearly $12 billion investment into “alternative” food sources including lab grown meat? Would a significant decrease in crops such as corn, a staple food source for cattle and hogs, result in a parallel drop in available beef and pork? Would this be enough to motivate people to try Gates’ artificial “meat”?

It is an established fact that George Soros donated at least $40 million dollars to assist in the recent elections of multiple prosecutors across America who agreed to not pursue prosecution of certain offenses including hit-and-run, eluding police, reckless driving, trespassing, public drunkenness, and failure to appear. In Loudon County Virginia, Soros enabled Prosecutor Buta Biberaj dismissed 491 cases brought to her office, bringing only 8% to trial.[1] What is Soros’s stated goal in doing this? Is it to signal to a select demographic that they may create havoc with impunity? Consider these well-known examples:

So egregious are the actions of the Soros-backed progressives that for the first time in history, these prosecutors have become household names — whether it be St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner, who made headlines for persecuting the McCloskey’s for defending their home against rioters, Chicago’s Kim Foxx, known for her role in attempting a cover-up after actor Jussie Smollett’s hate crime against Jussie Smollett, and the now-recalled Chesa Boudin of San Francisco, the son of 1960s radicals who was raised by terrorist Bill Ayers and effectively legalized shoplifting in the city.[2]

Why should Christians care about these things? Aren’t we pilgrims just passing through? Where do I begin to enumerate the reasons? In the least we can agree that America is a nation founded on the rule of law. Our law was founded upon belief in the God of the Scriptures. Our political theory of governance was not fashioned from secularism, progressivism, or humanism, but from the pages of the Bible.[3] God established governments as we read in Romans 13, for the benefit of the godly and to punish wickedness.

³ For rulers are not a cause of fear for good behavior, but for evil. Do you want to have no fear of authority? Do what is good and you will have praise from the same; ⁴ for it is a minister of God to you for good. But if you do what is evil, be afraid; for it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath on the one who practices evil.

This being the case, why are not more Christians speaking up to remind our elected officials of these truths? Some will respond that we are not meant to be involved in politics as a principle and furthermore, the IRS forbids it under several 501 codes. Both of those reasons are fraught with misunderstanding and have been used to silence the church for far too long. If Romans 13 means anything at all, it means we must encourage and applaud our representatives in government when they are faithfully fulfilling their responsibilities according to God’s mandate, or, rebuke and correct them when they aren’t.

But I want to make what I believe to be a greater point within the context of the silence of the church. If we really believe that the return of Jesus is near, shouldn’t we be speaking up and against the wickedness we see in our land? I’m not talking about railing against the lost unbelievers in our communities. We are commissioned to go to the lost, the defenseless, the ones who absent our intervention in a meaningful way, will become more victim to this current system than they already are. I am speaking about the great need of our day to boldly speak the truth that Jesus is coming again soon and when He does, He is coming as a judge.

Christians of all people should not be dismayed or fearful in speaking about these things that have become commonplace in this present age. It’s one thing to understand the times in which we live, it is entirely another to take responsibility for changing the circumstances where God has given us opportunity and favor.

We must also resist the devil’s temptation to think that Jesus has not, is not, and will never be the solution to the dark times man faces. The Controligarchs believe that wealth and power win every day over faith. Christians know the allurements of this world will fade away one day soon. Until that day arrives, we are to occupy this land for our King.

I direct your attention to Matthew 24 where nearly all Bible scholars agree that Jesus provided insight into the climate of the days immediately preceding His return. We read in verses 36-39 Jesus saying:

³⁶ “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. ³⁷ For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. ³⁸ For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, ³⁹ and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be.

The key verse in this passage is verse 37. Within that verse the key phrase is in my opinion “just like the days of Noah.” What does that mean? It cannot mean that Noah’s times were sinful. Every age since Noah has seen increasing evil. Many Biblical scholars and historians point to Genesis 6 to say that during Noah’s day there were giants in the land. Genesis 6:4 names those giants as Nephilim. Now don’t panic and stop reading. It doesn’t matter what you believe about this subject. What matters for our purposes here is to see a connection by type. The Genesis 6 account is telling us that human DNA was corrupted and polluted in some way which resulted in Genesis 6:5, “The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great upon the earth, and that very intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.”

Do you see the connection? What are the Controligarchs attempting today in this same regard? If you said, “AI enhanced transhumanism” you are correct. What will that entail? Today’s most wealthy people are fixated on transforming mankind into an image they imagine. The recent World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, hosted the world’s wealthiest individuals, and top government officials from across the world. One plenary session was held to discuss the subject of AI. Artificial Intelligence is embedded in everything the Controligarchs have stated is essential for the survival of the world. If the participants in the Davos meeting were constricted by a “truth” requirement, they would have said that AI is essential for their vision of a new world without many of the useless eaters presently consuming scarce resources. The top of their list of useless eaters are born-again, blood-bought, spirit-filled Christians. World Economic Forum philosopher Noah Yuval Harari has stated repeatedly that a new religion is rising upon the earth. It is a religion of technology. Harari believes that this new techno religion will replace Christianity primarily. He believes that technology will save humanity. This new religion is a modern manifestation of the old Gnostic heresy of salvation through secret, esoteric knowledge.[4]

Several major points emerged from the conversation about AI at the recent Davos meeting. I’ll share a couple of them. First, the Davos crowd believes that too much of the world is still analogue and disconnected from the “information superhighway.” The solution according to the Controligarchs, is to get everyone on the planet electronically connected as quickly as possible. Second, they believe that AI will enable them to perfect quantum computing which will in turn unlock innumerable things that remain unknown. This is the entire purpose for CERN by the way. Scientists there state that they are attempting to receive information inaccessible to them presently. Third, AI is believed to be the key to assisting today’s world leaders in prioritizing humanity. Again, if they would speak truthfully, they would say that AI is going to determine for world leaders where to invest resources and where to withhold resources. This has chilling implications when you consider what we already have witnessed in the Twenty-first century concerning the devaluing of human life.

The most concerning thing that we must know about our modern Controligarchs is that they are determined to rewrite human DNA. Shadows of this intent emerged in the recent Covid-19 discoveries by independent researchers. Genome editing and CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) technology are the new frontiers and Controligarchs are heavily invested in research in these fields. Bill Gates trumpets gene editing technology as a solution to every health crisis the world faces.[5] Elon Musk famously tweeted in 2020 that “Genetic engineering is too slow unless you use a synthetic virus.”[6] Talk about a “letting the cat out of the bag” statement. Musk has also invested billions in his new company Neuralink, to research and create a viable link from human brains to computers through implants.[7]

Here is why all of this information about the current state of technology, especially as it relates to gene editing, genome research, CRISPR, and Artificial Intelligence, is important. We find ourselves living in another day like Noah just before the flood. Technology has enabled us to expand our understanding of the human body. Indeed, the technologies mentioned above provide opportunities for scientists to create, change, and add to human DNA. We can already see that this technology can be used for evil purposes. I will also say that this technology is being used to create designer viruses.[8] Is this technology being used for the common good of all mankind? Yes, in many cases it is. However, we must ask the question, “Is modern technology being used to create dangerous things detrimental to mankind’s survival?” The clear answer is yes, it is. The dangerous use of current technology far exceeds any proposed benefit, given the stated goals of the people involved.

In my youth the government of the US was focused on the nuclear threat to America from the Russians. At the height of the Cold War in the 1960’s I recall participating in school drills meant to prepare us to act in the event of a nuclear attack. Something far worse has gripped the world today. Jesus warned us that His second coming would be during a time just like the days of Noah. The days of Noah were evil because human DNA had been corrupted. We are at that place again. We will begin to hear of amazing creations coming from the world’s scientists. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has been working on what they term “super-soldiers” for decades. An article in The Atlantic describes how far technology has come and what we can expect to be revealed very soon.

For decades after its inception in 1958, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency—DARPA, the central research and development organization of the Department of Defense—focused on developing vast weapons systems. Starting in 1990…a new focus was put on soldiers, airmen, and sailors—on transforming humans for war. The progress of those efforts, to the extent it can be assessed through public information, hints at war’s future, and raises questions about whether military technology can be stopped, or should.

Gorman sketched out an early version of the thinking in a paper he wrote for DARPA after his retirement from the Army in 1985, in which he described an “integrated-powered exoskeleton” that could transform the weakling of the battlefield into a veritable super-soldier. The “SuperTroop” exoskeleton he proposed offered protection against chemical, biological, electromagnetic, and ballistic threats, including direct fire from a .50-caliber bullet. It “incorporated audio, visual, and haptic [touch] sensors,” Gorman explained, including thermal imaging for the eyes, sound suppression for the ears, and fiber optics from the head to the fingertips. Its interior would be climate-controlled, and each soldier would have his own physiological specifications embedded on a chip within his dog tags. “When a soldier donned his ST [SuperTroop] battledress,” Gorman wrote, “he would insert one dog-tag into a slot under the chest armor, thereby loading his personal program into the battle suit’s computer,” giving the 21st-century soldier an extraordinary ability to hear, see, move, shoot, and communicate.[9]

Astute readers will be reminded of the Tony Stark character in the Marvel Iron Man movie franchise. I noticed this same tacit acknowledgement in the recent Tom Cruise Top Gun Maverick movie when actor Ed Harris playing Rear Admiral Chester Cain, arrived at the test site of an experimental next generation stealth fighter to shut the program down. His reasoning was that manned aircraft was a thing of the past. Admiral Cain believed future jet fighters would be flown by AI “pilots” who never tire, who don’t need to eat, or drink, and who obey orders. Sounds exactly like what the Controligarchs are attempting to implement.

Our world is on a collision course with biblical prophecy. While Controligarchs deceive people into believing that the future is theirs to create and rule, Jesus waits in the wings. While scientists tamper with DNA, the Bible reminds us that God has created the human body, and it is fearfully and wonderfully made. Will God allow some of His creation, who are in open rebellion, to destroy His imagers and create their own race of super soldiers to do the bidding of the Controligarchs? The Bible gives a resounding “NO” to this strong delusion.

The birth pangs of biblical prophecy are already upon the earth.[10] Those who have ears to hear and eyes to see are not fooled. To those Christians who have been gifted with God’s perspective, His divine insight, and have learned to follow the direction of the Holy Spirit, the battlefield is clear. We are armored up and prepared to press the war wherever King Jesus leads us. Will Jesus tarry much longer?

[10] Mark 13; Matthew 24-25.

By Reverend Glynn Adams

February 25, 2024

“But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons.” (1 Timothy 4:1)

“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.” (Matthew 6:24) “

“Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide, and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and many are those enter by it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life and few are those who find it.” (Matthew 7:13)

Since the early 1900s to today, America has been falling away from the faith of Jesus Christ. Today you are going to learn in plain English just how destructive, foolish, and dangerous that is to you, your family, and our nation. In America, we have no idea how serious and deadly it is to form denominations and religious systems that divide the Body of Christ. We will see how unfruitful and deadly it is to play church and religious games with the people of a nation.

Following Jesus Christ is not only a covenant and personal relationship with Him but following Jesus is also a partnership. God has a family in heaven called the Divine Council. When God formed mankind, He had in mind to have a family on this earth. This born-again family is to share the gospel, make disciples, and teach them to observe whatsoever He commanded.

When we get instruction from God, whether from the Word, the Holy Spirit, or an angel, we are bound by covenant law and our partnership to do our part in obedience and faithfulness. God Law is to love God first, with all our heart, body, and soul and to love your neighbor as you love yourself. The Apostle John is clear in his writings, “If you love Jesus, you will obey Him.”

The way this partnership works is God has a part that only God can do and He has given us a part for His Body that only we can do on this earth. He has given us dominion, His Name, His authority, His power in the Holy Spirit, His Word, and His mighty weapons in Ephesians 6. Jesus is the Head and His faithful followers are the Body of Jesus operating on this earth. We are the hands and feet of Jesus on this earth and we are the direct representative of Jesus Christ on this earth. We have a Kingdom mandate to do the will of God on earth as it is done to heaven. We are to bring heaven and the ways of heaven down to earth. NOW GET THIS: Jesus will never do our part. He always works through His Body on earth.

For some time now, the Body of Christ in America, in general, has developed a theology that most of our Christian responsibility is going to a church building on Sunday to worship. It’s entertainment and less focus on Christ and walking in His image. Today our churches focus on happy church to attract more people rather than focusing on doing our part in obedience to Jesus Christ. The church goers just don’t see a need to confront evil in our nation, no spiritual responsibility for what is happening in our culture, for what our children are taught in our public schools and in culture, and no spiritual responsibility to our government other than vote.

Nor have we furnished a moral compass for our nation. We have remained silent while Satan and his powers of darkness (under the lie of Klaus Schwab and the New World Order demonic elites) have systemically moved into our nation to destroy the followers of Jesus Christ in our nation; our God dethroned, our Bible, prayer, and the Law of God removed, our family system destroyed, Judeo-Christian morality attacked and removed, our Constitution and inalienable rights attacked and removed, marriage assaulted and redefined, our culture assaulted and flooded with immorality, and filth, our nation invaded by aliens, and divided by multiculturalism, race, gender, rights, homosexuality, and ideology. Christians have remained silent while we have drifted into religion and most of our nation has forgotten or does not know God.

When one looks at our nation today, based on the Word of God, if Christians had done their part, then God would have done His part, and we would not be in this spiritual mess today. The Body of Christ in America in recent years has developed another theology that somehow at some time or the other, God will come down to earth and fix our spiritual mess in America or He will rapture us out of here when it gets so bad. Jesus is coming back but not to fix our spiritual mess. The point of my message is Jesus is here on this earth, in each of His followers. He gave us dominion and all we need to fix America. If we will do our part, God will do His supernatural part.

That partnership is exhibited throughout the Bible. God told Moses, why are you crying out to Me? Tell the people to go forward, you Moses lift up your staff, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it and the sons of Israel shall go through the midst of the sea on dry land. Moses and the people obeyed God and did their part and God did His part.

Joshua was told by God for the people to march around Jericho seven times, shout, and the walls would come down. They obeyed and did their part and God did His part and the wall fell. If someone is sick, call the elders, anoint with oil, lay hands on the sick, and pray for healing. That is our part in healing, the supernatural part whether that person gets healed is God’s part; not ours. The same goes for casting out demons; we speak and command the demons to leave and God does the rest!!!

Listen Body of Christ in America: If Moses, Joshua and the people of God would have ignored what God said, do you think that sea would have parted and those walls would have come down? God honors obedience and but disobedience has dangerous and extremely grave consequences. Look at the defeat of Israel at AI, when they disobeyed God. A sure victory turned into defeat and death because of disobedience.

God has been warning the Body of Christ in America for years now, in the Word of God and by His watchman, to resist the evil in this nation and we have blatantly refused and disobeyed our LORD. If His Body in America would have done our part and would go to our battlefield and resist the evil in this nation, then God would do His part and supernaturally deliver us from evil just like He delivered Moses and Joshua.

Pastors and the followers of Christ in America have failed to do their part because we have believed the lie of separation of church and state and we are not to get involved in politics. Because our pastors and the followers of Christ are disobedient and refuse to do their part, we have caused a spiritual vacuum in this nation and Satan and his New World Order demonic occult friends have all moved to America and have filled this vacuum. They have captured our nation, Satan rules America and not God, and we have become a habitation of demons and demonic strongholds.

For years, there has been a spiritual war raging in this nation but the pastors and followers of Christ have refused to get involved in this spiritual war. Because we have ignored Satan and his demonic hordes, we are close to losing our freedoms and our nation!!! Does anyone in this nation realize just how close to destruction we are? Who do we think we are in America, refusing to obey our Sovereign God? Can’t we see the benefits of doing our part so God can do His? Can’t we see America is one election away from destruction?

Can’t we get it in our mindset that God is not coming down to America to deliver us unless we do our part? He will not do for us that which He has commanded us to do. His Body will have to show up at the battlefield to deliver our nation from evil or it will not get delivered. Can’t we see America is rebellious and lawless because the Body of Christ in America is rebellious and lawless?

So now our part and only option is to repent, humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, ask for His forgiveness, covenant with Him to obey Him, and resist the evil overtaking our nation, then and only then will God will do His part and deliver us from evil. What we don’t understand about our deception and disobedience is Satan has now moved most of his demonic world into America to finish us off.

Those who have eyes to see and ears to hear can see the evidence that the Chaldean, Baal, and many, many other demonic spirits, along with their demonic strongholds, high places, and principalities, are now openly operating in this nation. Many in America do not realize the seriousness of that statement. Lies and deception are now in abundance and common practice in our nation. Body of Christ in America, be careful and see to it that you are not deceived or tricked into following some demonic spirit.

Now I am going to explain to you exactly why we have all these demonic spirits and strongholds in our nation and who is clearly to blame. Those who do not repent and change their wicked ways will suffer the most extreme judgment. Jesus explains it in a parable and most of us miss the true meaning of this parable!!! But once it is explained to you, if you have eyes to see, you will know exactly what we must do to drive out the enemies that have gathered to bring down our nation. We owe a great deal of thanks to Jonathan Cahn, a Messianic Jew who lives here in America and his newest book, “The Return of the gods” gives us much insight to what has happened in America and why!!!

Let me give some biblical background before I show you this parable of Jesus. For those who claim to be followers of Jesus Christ who are ignorant and demonically deceived because you believe there is no need to read and study the Old Testament because you deem it not relevant for today since we have the New Testament.

Have you ever wondered why so much warfare was presented in the Old Testament? God was teaching His followers to show them just how deceitful Satan is and the need to rid the nations of the demonic powers. You cannot have a functioning culture and peace when the wicked are always trying to destroy you and your way of life.

This is the parable Jesus gave to His disciples as recorded in the New Testament which is a revelation of profound, massive, and prophetic ramifications for the modern world and our own day. “When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through waterless places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says ‘I will return to my house from which I came’; and when it comes, it finds it unoccupied, swept, and put in order. Then it goes and takes along with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself and they go in and live there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. This is the way it will also be with this evil generation.” (Matthew 12:43-45)

What does this parable mean and what does it mean for our modern times. At first glance it would seem that the parable is talking about a possessed and delivered man who then becomes repossessed. It certainly could be applied to a possessed individual. But the parable is actually not about the man at all. It is only an illustration, an example, an analogy used to reveal a spiritual principle and give a prophetic warning. The parable is not about individual possession but collective or mass possession, the possession of a generation, a culture or a civilization.

Here is the application to our western civilization. Should a culture, a society, a nation, or a civilization be cleansed – that is delivered or exorcised of the gods and spirits and it is delivered from the gods and spirits, then how could the spirits and gods return to that Western civilization? Only one way – if that civilization should ever turn away from God, His Word, from the gospel and from Jesus. If it should do so, then that which drove out the spirits will no longer be present to protect it against its return. And the civilization that had been delivered of the spirits will become repossessed by them. The gods will return and the state of that civilization will end up far worse and darker than at the beginning.

Now the application to America. The gods could only return to a nation or civilization if there had been a falling away from the living God. In America, there have been milestones, turning points and moments of critical mass. In the mid to late twentieth century, America’s departure from God became discernable and continued through the end of the twentieth century and into the twenty-first, unabated, deepening, widening increasing in magnitude and momentum. Our falling away would go hand in hand with the capture of our nation, Satan would rule America and not God, and the return of the ancient gods and spirits.

Now you can see why our Founding Fathers warned us that if we ever lost our morality and virtue, we could not maintain our self-government and our liberty and freedoms. Now you see why it is so hard to regain freedom and liberty once lost. America is there. We have only a short window of opportunity to return to God and His protections.

If we will do our part to rid our nation of these demonic entities, God will do His supernatural part. God is a God of restoration and for us to get involved in the restoration of our nation is a war worth fighting. So much is at stake here and make no mistake about this battle as it will be dangerous. As God told Joshua, “Only be strong and courageous” – for this is the sure will of God and He will give us the victory. God bless, I remain His warrior and watchman, Glynn Adams

What kind of gods are they?

In my zeal to present the gods gone astray that Psalm 82 calls the Divine Council or the congregation of the mighty, I mis-characterized them by saying they co-reigned with God, Supreme God. Let me correct my mistake and clarify: these gods of Psalm 82, these sons of God of Genesis 6 and Job, are created beings, unlike the Supreme God, who is uncreated, who has always been.

Whether these other beings should be called gods or something else is debatable. The scripture calls them gods — Elhohyim — so it’s not errant, but our connotations inferred may be. They are spiritual beings of a higher order, possibly (probably) the highest order under God Himself. I think the four archangels listed in Enoch are probably a step above them…. Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, and Uriel….

They did not/do not co-reign with God in that they share God’s power. They are created beings given much power to serve God, like the seraphim, cherubim, angels, and whatever other heavenly created beings God has created. Just like satan, they were created for a function and they abused their powers and subverted their original purpose for selfish ambitions. Their task, it appears, was some sort of service to God in the affairs of the created world on earth.

I am genuinely sorry if I confused or misrepresented anything by poor word choice or description. I never intend or want to misrepresent anything of God (or anything at all).

Some may prefer to call them angels, and that may be a better descriptor for connotation. But the actual words Scripture uses is “sons of God” and “gods” (Hebrew eloyhim), which is why I use that term, but I know it causes a bit of confusion when we’ve been taught there are no other gods but God. That is in fact true when you’re talking about the uncreated Being who is omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent. There is only One. But the Bible and other works do call these lesser (yet quite powerful) other beings gods as well.

Both Daniel and Enoch call these beings “Watchers”, which is ’iyr in the Aramaic that literally means watcher, but the translators have implied as angels or guardians. It comes from the root word ‘uwr meaning “through the idea of opening the eyes”, from the root “to be bare”. Best hypothesis is these are created beings with the task of watching creation. They’re listed three times in Daniel in chapter four and each time they are coupled with the “holy ones” (which is also an Aramaic word) which loosely translates one made sacred. Each time in Daniel they’re used is to issue a decree.

According to Enoch (and corroborated in Genesis 6), it would seem that there were two hundred of these beings who left their abode in heaven, perhaps they were just doing their task they were created for (watching, reporting?), but at the leadership of Semjaza rebelled against their heavenly assignments and copulated with human women. Enoch 6:6 tells us, “And they were in all two hundred who descended in the days of Jared on the summit of Mount Hermon, and they called it Mount Hermon because they had sworn and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it.” Interestingly, “Hermon” comes from an ancient Hebrew word “charam” which means “to seclude, specifically by a ban, to devote to religious uses especially destruction”. Like Heiser said, Mount Hermon is ground zero for the rebellious gods/watchers/angels.

I realize I’ve ruffled some feathers addressing and expounding on other “gods”, but I’m going to repeat something I explained in an earlier article. In the Ten Commandments, the first one is “you shall have no other gods before me.” There’s no reason for God to command this if it’s not an issue. The very next commandment is not to make idols. If idols (graven images) were the sole concern, is the first commandment necessary? And why wouldn’t God have said, “you shall have no idols before me”? He didn’t. He said gods.

There were lesser gods being worshiped and God was setting aside a nation as an example to the world of a people who worshiped only the supreme God. He goes on into verse five to say He is a “jealous” God. It literally means jealous and roots back to the primitive root qana’ meaning “to be zealous, (that is in a bad sense) jealous or envious”.

I don’t have time to keep breaking this down for people who think it’s heresy. It’s solid exegesis. A serious Biblical word study of the times eloyhim is used and its context, a serious word study of the “sons of God” and its context, should help people (who aren’t insistent that the western church’s teaching is without error) understand better. I’m really just laying this out for those with ears to hear and a heart to seek God for understanding. I realize it will sound like heresy to those entrenched in western church christianity.

If it is or if it isn’t gods, there’s still this other thing….

There is a group of people that think they are gods and they serve them. So our belief, understanding, traditions don’t matter in the context of what this other people group is doing. THEY worship other “gods”, whether you think they exist or not. They have ordered their lives around serving these other “gods”. (Just like Abraham’s dad and uncle did, just like the Israelites did when they forsook God for the gods of other nations.)

Jonathan Cahn (in his book Return of the Gods) laid it out like this… Before Christ the majority of the world was serving and worshiping other gods. They made temples to them, they made sacrifices to them, they held festivals and parades to them, their calendars were set by them. You couldn’t walk through the major cities of the world without running into homage of some sort to the gods of that region. You might have heard of them as Zeus, Osiris, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Athena, Baal, and the list goes on and on by different regions and different languages.

After Christ, the disciples and the ever increasing Christians evangelized the “modern” world and were severely persecuted and even killed for their message of the one true God and His son. Yet little by little, the worship of the other gods gave way to Christianity and the foreign gods’ temples now lie in ruins all over the world, most are famous tourist spots.

As Cahn says, if you sweep the temple clean of unclean spirits but don’t fill it with the Holy Spirit, the unclean spirit eventually comes back and brings seven more with it and the state of the temple is worse than it was before it was swept clean. A world that converted (in large portion) to Christianity eventually apostatized and the (allegorical) temple was emptied. So the other gods have moved back in all over the world in places we’d now call post-Christian. Read Cahn’s book. It will help you understand so much.

The old gods are now modern and trendy

What used to be underground and backroom worships and rituals to other gods has now gone mainstream. What they used to do in the dark they now do in broad daylight. Sometimes they’re bold enough to put their god’s name or one of the many images of their gods right out there. Just a brief sampling:

• Starbucks uses the Ishtar image on their cups… they say it’s a siren
• Venus razors by Gilette…. goddess of love
• Maseratti uses the Poseidon (Neptune) trident … god of the sea
• NBC uses the peacock … Hera goddess of women, symbol of pride
• CBS uses the all-seeing eye … Horus or Ra
• Nike is named after the Greek goddess of victory
• the iconic Statue of Liberty is actually a replica of the Babylonian goddess of fertility, Ishtar
• Paramount’s logo is a towering mountain with 22 stars encircling its top which is strangely parallel to Mount Hermon, (the mount the ancient gods left their abode in Heaven to fornicate on earth). The 22 stars are strangely parallel to the 22 named gods or beings that led the 200 in the rebellion of their original corruption of earth.
• And of course Apple, with a bite out of it, lauds the forbidden fruit as the key to knowledge. [Their first computer debuted for sale at $666.66.]

I’m not arguing that each of these (and the multitude that I didn’t list) are idol worshipers. Obviously some companies use mythology figures for market purposes. But it is telling that the market is saturated with emulations of foreign gods and idols. In fact, there’s not an industry in the public sphere that isn’t represented in some way, shape or form by foreign gods and idols.

The entertainment industry is ripe with god worship. In fact, watching a music video these days is like having a front seat to an occult ritual. Pretty much anything by Beyonce, Lady Gaga, JayZ, Marilyn Manson, Katy Perry, Madonna, Taylor Swift, and the list goes on and on….is witnessing some form of homage to their god(s) and/or some ritual.

Speaking of the entertainment industry, the NFL is classified as “sports entertainment”, (which releases them from liability for fixing games, among other things). For years now they have employed some of the biggest names in idol worship (idols to us, gods to them) for the half-time shows. Has anyone forgotten the half-time show where Madonna came in as Ishtar to perform her ritual under the watchful eye of Ra (Horus)? It has been a steady stream of idol rituals thanks to the prolific platform the NFL has.

NASA (the Hebrew word for “to deceive”) uses a forked tongue emblem, and names their rockets after a slew of gods, just look. (Atlas, Jupiter, Thor, Titan, Athena, Minotaur, Apollo, Nike, etc.) I wonder what NASA could be being used to deceive humanity about?

The days of the week, the months of the year – almost all are named after gods. Many holidays are rooted in ancient god worship celebrations.

Here’s an interesting one, “X” is supposedly symbolic for “Osiris risen”. Celebrities crossing their arms in an X is supposedly giving homage to the resurrection of Osiris, the Egyptian god of death and resurrection. There have been a rash of other X logos lately, notably: Elon Musk renamed Twitter “X”; Madonna has an alter ego named “Madame X”; the spacecraft manufacture in CA is called “SpaceX”; the Marvel comic superheroes are “X-Men”, etc.

Altiyan Childs, 2010 X-factor winner from Australia, had a near death experience where he attributes his life being saved by God. He did an about face after that and reevaluated his life, becoming very dedicated to God. In 2021 he released a five hour video where he went into great detail on the various forms of idolatry and cult worship in the entertainment industry. His video gives great detail to the symbols they use and their meanings. Video here.

Depending on the source, the ancient Roman God Saturn (where we get Saturday, aka Saturn’s Day) is either the god of time (Kronos or Father Time), Lord of the Rings, the originator of the cult of EL…. Or is symbolic of satan himself. Interestingly you’ll find the Saturn logo on a number of corporate logos of a circle with a ring, or the rings of Saturn, such as these….

Epstein Island has a temple modeled after the Mamluk Bathhouse in Aleppo, Syria. The name Mamluk means “slave soldiers”, and they were known for kidnapping young boys to force them to become warriors, and kidnapping young girls to force them into sex slavery. The blue and white stripes are said to be a nod to ancient Greece, where sex between adults and minors was commonplace. Interestingly, the set for Ellen Degeneres’s talk show had a similar background.

The point is….

I could go on and on about the various god/idol symbolism imagery that permeates our culture. I have files and files of images and history. But the point is, the people entrenched in service and worship of their gods (little g) pay homage to their gods in their various venues. Just like a Christian displays a fish, a cross, three crosses, various aspects of God in their lives both personal and public (think personalized license plates, bumper stickers, t-shirts, business logos, sports teams, scripture references, names of the real God, etc.), so do the adherents to foreign gods display their loyalty and adoration for their gods.

There was a time, perhaps, that brazen demonstrations of idolatry would be frowned upon in American society. But as American culture has become more and more debased, rejecting adherence to Christian morals and trading them for hedonistic displays and lifestyles, those who participate and have allegiance to the lesser gods have become emboldened to no longer hide their affections and loyalties. The scales have tipped and the idolatrous feel the weight of their power and are moving forward with their objectives.

It’s a brave new world where conservative morals are ridiculed and being outlawed while outright depravity, perversions and licentiousness are lauded and on open display. It’s a demonstration of allegiance to the gods one serves, or the God one serves.

If there was a time such loyalties hid in the shadows, that time is either over or quickly fading. The battle of the gods has commenced and loyalties will be the dividing lines in the coming days. If ever a true believer in the true God needed to evaluate their loyalties and the things they give affection to, I would think that time would be upon us. As the battle heightens, compromising affections with lesser gods will prove devastating to Christians.

Our nation and indeed our world are being led by Godless adherents to foreign gods intent on doing the bidding of their gods, which is a dark and destructive place. We are and will further be deemed the enemy because our allegiance is to the true and supreme God. God is able to protect us, but we cannot afford to be found with one foot in allegiance to God and the other in the cesspools of idolatry.

As I alluded to earlier, the end outcome is guaranteed victory for the supreme God and His children, but the battle leading up to that end will be treacherous for us all. The gods do not fight fair and human suffering is nothing to such gods. In fact, they prefer humans to suffer. Fortunately, we have a God who does care and protects those found abiding in Him and has provided the way for us through Christ.

The book, “Time on the Cross: The Economics of American Negro Slavery” by Nobel Prize winner Robert Fogel, written in 1974, still startles court historians as it courts the radical conclusion that black slaves were commonly better off than free Northern laborers during antebellum times. Beyond being beyond the grasp of African witch doctors, headhunters or slavers (most of whom were themselves black!), American Negro slaves had a surprising amount of freedom and were well taken care of by law. Black enslaved women were allowed maternity leave and received attentive medical care during their pregnancies. They had a one-year maternity leave after the birth of a child. Slaves were not permitted to work by law while they were ill.

In Virginia, an older free black could ask a white to take him or her on as a slave; this was an antebellum version of “Social Security” for elderly blacks who had no other means of subsistence. Of course, the white owner was usually a professional – a doctor, merchant, teacher, lawyer or well off widow/spinster rather than a planter, so the newly enslaved individual did not have to perform any heavy manual labor. As well, slaves were legally allowed to conduct their own business, selling their wares and crafts as well as such personal talents as smithing and carpentry in the marketplace. Their masters were not entitled to their financial gains though the master had to give permission for the slave to take time out of the duties he owed to his master. Remember, slaves did not work as did the factory, mine and mill worker.

They had duties but once those had been fulfilled, they had the leisure to do other things. Indeed, the system worked so well for many blacks that the man who owned the most slaves at the time of Fort Sumter was a black man who had sold a patent for an improvement on the cotton gin. The money he gained, he used to purchase his and his wife’s freedom and a plantation along with more slaves than were owned by any other planter in South Carolina at that time.

Slaves were also given cash bonuses for extraordinary production. There was also an established retirement age after which slaves were well taken care of by their owners. One Florida plantation had a book on their “enslaved people” that indicated the birthday of one woman who was over 100 years old! Obviously, slavery was no automatic death sentence or a consignment to a (short) life of endless suffering! Indeed, many slaves lived better lives than do their present “freed” ghetto descendants who frequently don’t make it through childhood! This is not to say that slavery was a “good” thing, but it was not the horror – at least in the New World – as it has been portrayed! And furthermore, at the beginning of the colonization of America, the vast majority of slaves were white and we’re not speaking here of indentured servants but of chattel slaves!

Under slavery, black slaves lived in close-knit slave “communities” where they often ran their own affairs though doubtless under the supervision of their owner. Families were rarely split apart, contrary to the usual narrative and where this did happen, it happened as much in the North as the South. They had garden plots to raise food for their families and, where possible, they fished and hunted to support their tables. They had guaranteed housing, food, clothing, medical care, business opportunities and support after retirement. They were also protected from the criminal activities of the surrounding community and were made more secure than many of today’s American senior citizens – white and black.

Post Scriptum: a fairly recently published book, Dying For Freedom by Jim Downs addressed the fate of former slaves both during and after the Civil War. The book pointed to the failure of the “Union” States to care for newly freed slaves especially in an impoverished post-war South, causing more death and suffering than had happened when those same people were in fact enslaved. According to the book, “As former slaves left their places of servitude behind, they entered a world of freedom, but also a war zone devastated by disease, poverty and death. More soldiers died of disease than from battle. Slaves became exposed to the same outbreaks of dysentery, smallpox and fever that decimated Union and Confederate ranks, and they died by the thousands: an estimated 60,000 former slaves died from a smallpox epidemic from 1863 to 1865. There were no protections, no refugee programs or public health services in place to help freed slaves ward off the disease that plagued the Confederate South.

As one 19th-century reformer observed, ‘You may see a child well and hearty this morning, and in the evening you will hear of its death.’” Furthermore, blacks were not permitted to “migrate” north to escape the suffering of the South under “reconstruction” until the need for manpower during WWI required their bodies to fill the places once held by those now fighting in Europe! So, the idea that the so-called “Civil War” was fought to end the suffering of black slaves is sheer nonsense.

February 23, 2024

Our political elites mis-use economics. They use economic projections as sales, marketing and sloganeering tools. Their central planning and control efforts form an endless barrage of claims hoping for votes, then power, money and control. Think about clean energy, immigration, Measure 110, micro-electronic circuit or housing development and employment.

Are these examples sincere problem solving efforts or merely attempts to overtake the economy and grab money, power and control?

As always, when there is one political claim there is always another. But, what is the truth of the matter? Can any of these claims about solving problems and improving the lives of Oregonians be true?

Regardless, the state’s collectivist marketeers get right to work.

The French economist Frédéric Bastiat described our problem in his 1850 essay, “That Which Is Seen, and That Which Is Not Seen.” He wrote, “The bad economist pursues a small present good, which will be followed by a great evil to come, while the true economist pursues a great good to come, — at the risk of a small present evil.”

The adjectives he uses are – bad verses true, instead of bad verses good. We have become accustomed to think in terms of moral categories like bad verses good. The lesson for us is, we should strive for truth, then our moral compass will be set straight.

I suggest, our state’s political quagmire would clear immediately, if we asked, “Is that true?”

For example, the open border policies have grown to allowing more than 300,000 migrants to cross illegally into the US monthly. Obviously, this is deliberate, but are we solving anything problems or are we just moving the problems around on a map and making them worse? The recently failed $118 billion border security bill only had $20 billion for US border security.

Does that sound like a solution, a marketing ploy, or magic?

When our political elites use falsehood to advance an idea, it’s more than bad policy, it’s bad economics. The border example, works well to illustrate this point. Has the influx of multiple millions of illegal immigrants provided any economic, practical, moral, life and livelihood benefits to the US or to the various countries of origin that lost these people? The claim is that we are saving lives but the administration is not advancing freedom, shutting-down socialist dogma or pressuring our other countries to adopt free-market economies.

How can we best help, by proving handouts or opportunities? Here or there? What’s marketing and what is truth?

And, for all of our global concerns, why isn’t anyone asking the truth questions about Cxvoid “science”?

Was social distancing was effective? Is there scientific evidence that face masks can stop a respiratory virus? Were Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) performed to confirm asymptomatic transmission claims? Did plexiglass barriers, the constant washing of grocery counters, or disinfecting shopping carts handles provide any documentable benefits?

The scientific totalitarians will have trouble with each of these questions, as well as, accessing risks associated with the mRNA injections which are skirted or ignored daily.

Why is Oregon’s political class unwilling to seek truth.

Remember, forty million Americans lost their jobs, and nearly 10 million of those are still unemployed. Income in America fell to such low levels that federal tax revenues decreased by more than 50 percent year over year by mid-year 2020.

Yet, the federal government cranked up the printing presses and distributed $350 billion to states and local governments as part of the 2022 pandemic aid bill. Those monies have to be spent by this year’s end or the feds will send their agents to take it back.

Why was this mandatory time frame part of the legislative package? It clearly wasn’t designed for the slow, deliberative, and prudent considerations that would normally accompany prudent decision-making. Rather, the mandatory time-constraint was designed to generate a momentary statistical blip for propaganda purposes.

The story always reads better if the pols can claim, “all is well in our local economies.” Complete tommyrot.

As in the earlier quote, “The bad economist pursues a small present good, which will be followed by a great evil to come…,” and no one knows the long-term impacts on our horizon.

Remember, untold numbers of small businesses remain closed. Thousands of individuals, moms, dads, and family members lost their jobs, and these job losses will get muddled with the statistical averages from foreign nationals, undocumented immigrants or illegal aliens who are also looking for employment.

On a legislative note here in Oregon, let me touch on, SB 1508. This bill recently passed the Senate Floor, and will move to the House. It is a prime example of government intervention with unintended consequences.

This bill started as my attempt to curb run-away Insulin prices. However, I voted “NO” because the bill had grown less attractive after each edit.

For background, I am alive today because of multiple daily injections of insulin. I have been injecting insulin for more than 50-years, so, I fully understand the life and death nature of insulin. Especially, in terms of medical need, cost and availability.

Yet this bill illustrates government taking the easy-way out. Essentially, this is a legislative mandate limiting charges for insulin to just $35 a vial, from insurance providers operating within the state.

Insulin prices are not driven by extravagant insurance co-pay fees. Insulin prices actually get generated at the manufacturing level, by supply and demand for source materials, research, development, technology, manufacturing and regulatory requirements. Unlike ice cream which experiences greater demand during the summer, insulin has a fairly constant demand curve.

Yet, a major price factor is law-fare – practices that protect big manufacturing dominance through endless trade secret and patent protections. Patent protection are are limited and expire for various insulin formulations but manufacturing techniques are typically protected by trade secret law without limit.

Demanding insurance providers squeeze other plan participants meet the difference directly helps patients but doesn’t solve the problem. In other words, we only moved the problem from one spot on the map to another, as manufacturers enjoy continued market protection.

No doubt people appreciate the lower cost and affordability of this life-saving medication, but what is government accomplishing? The “unseen” never gets mentioned. How many unintended consequences cascade down the line when government steps in to solve any particular problem?

system by twisting some segment of our economy. Like minimum-wage laws, paid-leave laws, laws restricting housing, land-use or drug-use there is always a problem that government created which will fester until really hurts. Meanwhile, the politicians, bureaucrats, political donors and cronies get to skate happily along and everything looks good until the next catastrophe.

We can only succeed by empowering individuals. We slow down and curb the state’s bureaucratic enterprise at every turn. We must hold politicians accountable for their false projections and the deleterious impacts of their socialist policies. Truth must be our standard.

Only through free-markets, with clear determinations of truth and fallacy, can we will rebuild the American dream. Yes, even here in Oregon.

If we don’t stand for rural Oregon values, no one will…

Thanks to decades of anti-American false propaganda flooding the airwaves from pretty much every form of mass media in the country, today’s leftist echo chamber has taught millions of American voters a laundry list of gaslighting lies that simply are not true, including their misguided misperception of Trump voters.

The truth is entirely contrary to their misguided and carefully manipulated view of all Trump voters, and they need a strong dose of reality before it’s too late for America.

First, six years before Trump came down the escalator to announce his bid for the Oval Office, millions of Americans had had enough of the ongoing utter destruction of all things American in 2009. They were gathering together in Tea Party and Liberty groups all across the country and rising up against anti-American policies coming from the halls of their own federal government.

When Trump came down the escalator in 2015, these highly patriotic Americans chose Trump to represent them in Washington DC, a city gripped by anti-American socialist policies designed to eventually erode all Natural Rights of the People and meld the USA into some insane global Marxist commune, now openly under the leadership of Klaus Schwab and his thousands of WEF Young Global Leaders carefully planted in positions of power around the world.

Contrary to the false assumptions by Trump-haters, his supporters are not “following Trump,” Trump decided to represent American patriots in place six years before he announced, via his candidacy in 2015.

Fundamentally, the Trump voters believe in the following principles and values, in this order…

1. God, morality, ethics, decency
2. Strong upward mobile families
3. Our Country, national sovereignty, and security
4. All Natural Rights, individual Freedom, and Liberty
5. Limited government authority
6. Real equal justice under constitutional laws
7. An informed ethical society capable of self-governance
8. Opposition to all destructive policies aimed at destroying the USA
9. Free market economics, fiscal health, necessary to any successful nation
10. Free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections worthy of the People’s faith

The Trump voter isn’t interested in government control over any citizens. They are not at all interested in what government can do for them…but are instead, deeply concerned about what government has been doing to all Americans for decades.

Trump voters know that to be free and prosperous themselves, they must protect the freedom and liberty of all others, no matter political leanings.

Unfortunately, the Marxist policies of today’s democrat party and their vast echo chamber in mass media, k-12 public education and college lecture halls, many church pulpits, censored social media and even search engine manipulations, not to mention their latest “cancel culture” machine, have held millions of young, indoctrinated voters hostage. At least two young generations are currently entirely incapable of accepting truths, no matter how obvious or undeniable. They involuntarily react to truthful information as if someone threw poison on them.

As is demonstrated on social media platforms every day, whole generations are incapable of explaining their beliefs, presenting any truth to support those beliefs, or holding an open honest discussion on any important issue.

Instead, they regurgitate talking points they learned in the 24/7 echo chamber, as if they’ve never had an original thought in their whole life. When confronted with any truth, they resort to the “cancel culture” tactics they were trained in the echo chamber, unable to challenge the truth with any real facts.

While they complain and whine about what they were told is “mistreatment of citizens” around the world, like Terror groups Hamas, Islamic jihad and Hezbollah, or the recent death of a Putin opponent in Russia…they champion the mistreatment of US citizens, over a thousand of whom sit in prison for being political opponents to Biden on January 6^th.

They attack Putin for allegedly killing his political opponents, but celebrate how the global Marxist democrats persecute, jail and yes, sometimes murder their political opponents right here in the USA.

The fact is… Trump voters are trying to save these brainwashed people from themselves. But the deep state indoctrination is now so deeply embedded in the psyche of so many young voters, that saving freedom and liberty for all may no longer be possible.

Meanwhile, when Trump voters…

• Fight for free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections, they do so not for Trump, but for all American citizens.
• Demand accountability from any politician or governmental body, they do so not for Trump, but for all American citizens.
• They expose many fatal truths about CV19 protocols and the bioweapons vax program, they do so for all Americans.
• They seek real national sovereignty and security for the USA, they do so for all Americans.
• They support a Right to Life, they do so for all Americans, born and unborn.
• They seek to enforce the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights, they do so not for Trump, but for all American citizens.
• Expose truth about criminal activities within the halls of our government, they do so for all Americans, present and future.
• Expose ineligible candidates seeking high office, they do so not for Trump, but for all Americans.
• Defend Trump, it’s intended to defend YOU, your kids, grandkids, and great grandkids!

I could keep going, but if you don’t get the point by now, it’s because you are trapped inside the Marxist echo chamber of anti-American propaganda and even though your belief structure is false, and doesn’t even make any common sense, you will remain trapped.

But everything I told you here is 100% true… maybe not for every Trump supporter, but for more than 98% of them. Some of you can still learn from new information made available. Others will insist upon learning truth the hard way.

It’s your choice, to remain in the echo chamber, or you can pay attention to truth and begin to think for yourself. It’s all up to you!

The rest of us will do what’s best for every American, whether or not you like it. Everyone who isn’t part of the solution is by default a part of the problem.

“Let’s be clear about Vladimir Putin,” says conservative columnist Kurt Schlichter. “He’s a murderous scumbag ex-KGB colonel. He’s not a good guy. He’s not a hero. He’s a Russian nationalist and a massive thief.”  But then, this columnist for the website Townhall says that poor Tucker Carlson was “set up” by Putin when the Russian dictator gave him an interview. His claim is that “Vladimir Putin set up Tucker Carlson by murdering Alexis Navalny just days after Tucker‘s controversial visit to Moscow and interview.”

Tucker wasn’t set up. He played into Putin’s hands, demonstrating to the world how a “top” American journalist can lose perspective and grovel before a mass murderer. Hopefully, this embarrassing performance disqualifies the former Fox News host from serving as Trump’s vice-presidential nominee.

Putin gave Tucker an interview, posing as a great statesman and historian, and then he arranged the death in prison of one of his domestic political opponents. He followed that by arresting an American ballerina in Moscow, charging her with treason.

If Tucker is a dupe, Biden is a bigger dupe, pretending to fight for freedom in Ukraine while failing to provide the former Soviet republic the means to fight and win.

Biden’s fate is unknown, in terms of the election, but Tucker has already taken his place along others in the profession who appeared on bended knee before other communist dictators and communist terrorists. They include Walter Duranty, a Stalin apologist, and Herbert Mathews, a mouthpiece for Castro.

Using the term “set up” takes Tucker off the hook for doing the dictator’s bidding. Tucker knew that he was dealing with a former KGB operative who has specialized in killing his enemies.  The murder of Navalny, coming so soon after the Tucker interview, was another example of Putin’s power politics. As the Chinese communist Mao said, “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”

All communists understand this principle, except the Russian communists perfected the use of the nerve agent Novichok to kill.

Tucker wasn’t set up. Tucker set Putin up on a platform where he could pontificate without serious interruption. He dominated Tucker. Then Putin issued a statement with more powerful connotations when Navalny was declared dead from “sudden death syndrome.”

Putin sent another message with his gift of a Russian-made limousine to North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un. The state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported “the gift serves as a clear demonstration of the special personal relations between the top leaders of the (North Korea) and Russia.”

Perhaps Putin is not so much an “ex-communist” but an active communist to the present day. But to admit this fact undermines the story line peddled by some “conservatives” that Putin is somehow a Christian patriot who opposes the “New World Order.”

Will the murder of Navalny somehow change their opinion of Putin?

Probably not.

Look at the disgraced Alex Jones suggesting that the Western intelligence agencies somehow murdered Navalny in a Russian prison. Alex Jones is a long-time stooge of the Russian propaganda apparatus who is now on the verge of financial bankruptcy because of court judgements finding him guilty of spreading lies about the deaths of kids at Sandy Hook.

He asks, “Why would Putin kill somebody who’s unpopular, who’s in prison, and then give the Western establishment a big win?”

No matter how “unpopular” Navalny was, he was considered a threat to Putin. Even though he was in prison, he was a symbol of opposition. He had to go. Putin is paranoid.

But understanding Putin’s anti-Americanism does not mean that the Congress should vote for $60 billion for Ukraine to send a message to the Russian dictator. Of the $60.7 billion for Ukraine, Associated Press says $38.8 billion would go to U.S. factories that make missiles, munitions and other gear.

This is their latch-ditch appeal – money for Ukraine is a U.S. jobs program.

However, I must conclude, after two years of this war, that the people around Biden do not want Ukraine to win the war. If we had a president like Reagan in the oval office, I would think differently.

To understand how Democrats in office start wars and then lose them is not isolationism.

Speaking to the Munich Security Conference, Republican Senator J.D. Vance noted that  “…we don’t make enough munitions to support a war in Eastern Europe, a war in the Middle East, and potentially a contingency in East Asia. So the United States is fundamentally limited.”

We are “limited” because of the push for a “green economy” dependent on China and which forces our allies to buy Russian and Iranian oil.

Vance cited the following example: “The PAC-3, which is a Patriot interceptor, Ukraine uses in a month what the United States makes in a year. The Patriot missile system is on a five year back order, 155 millimeter artillery shells on more than a five year back order. We’re talking in the United States about ramping up our production of artillery to 100,000 a month by the end of 2025. The Russians make close to 500,000 a month right now at this very minute.”

Summing up, he says, “So the problem here vis-à-vis Ukraine is America doesn’t make enough weapons, Europe doesn’t make enough weapons, and that reality is far more important than American political will or how much money we print and then send to Europe.”

The answer, quite clearly, is for Europe, led by Germany, to rearm.

At the same time, Vance observed, “We have to remember that despite a lot of the hand-wringing, and I’ve heard a lot of it in private meetings and public meetings, Donald Trump was maybe the best president at deterring Russia in a generation. In fact, the only time that Russia has not invaded a foreign country over the last 20 years was the four years that Donald Trump was President.”

Regarding Putin’s latest assassination, Vance called Navalny “a brave person,” adding, “His death is a tragedy. I don’t think that he should have been in prison. I don’t think that he should have been killed in prison. And I condemn Putin for doing it. But here’s the problem: it doesn’t teach us anything new about Putin.”

We’ve known for a very long time that Putin is a dictator who kills his enemies. My book, Back from the Dead: The Return of the Evil Empire, is ten years old but tells the story of how Putin is assembling a global coalition of communist regimes and anti-American movements.

After Russia invaded Ukraine (again) under Biden, I wrote a column, ‘Saving America by Saving Ukraine,”  but I now believe we must save America first. And that means understanding the dangers of Putin and his regime but also understanding the domestic situation under Biden and the Democrats. These people do not want the United States to win. They don’t want Ukraine to win and they don’t want Israel to win.

“You win wars with weapons, and the West doesn’t make enough weapons,” Vance explained.

As America tries to build more, at a very slow rate, the people of Ukraine suffer and wait. It’s clear Biden doesn’t care about their fate. If he did, he would have acted before now and he would not have encouraged an “incursion” from Russia in the first place.

What Vance says is not isolationism. It is realism. And that realism means that so-called “conservatives” and “Christians” rooting for Putin must wake up before they lose their own country to an enemy on the march here and abroad.

February 22, 2024

Note:  This commentary was first posted on Feb.26, 2009.  Too poignant to not share again.

“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.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.” — Cicero (106-43 BC)

A coup has taken place in America. Our nation is no longer controlled by “the people.” Our domestic enemies are now officially in power. We are no longer free; we just think we are — and it has happened on our watch.

What we have failed to realize is that the Spiritual War and the Cultural War were one and the same. Because of our ignorance, the Church has engaged in the former but has ignored the latter. We did not understand that the “war in the heavenlies” manifests in the world. Our failure to fight for Truth has given us a nation ruled by liars.

We are a sin-laden nation because we have codified evil into the law. Content to focus on the “saving of souls” we have neglected Jesus’ admonition to occupy until He comes. As evil flourished, the Church retreated. We have failed to recognize that the battle in the heavenlies was for control of the earth. Jesus prayed that His Kingdom would come ON EARTH. We have yielded the earth and submitted to evil.

Cicero was right. Evil did not come dressed up in a red suit and carrying a pitchfork. It has come clothed in a three-piece suit and brandishing an Ivy League degree. While we looked for an army riding tanks and planes, we have been overrun by a force promoting education and arts. Using guns and bullets would have been too obvious. This war has been fought and won with words. Language was their weapon of mass destruction.

Paul warned us of this in Colossians 2:8 “Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.”

They called it multi-culturalism and it was promoted in our schools, but the formal name is Cultural Marxism. It gave birth to “political correctness” where thoughts became crimes. But it did not happen by accident. The only thing standing between Communism and world dominance was Western Civilization and its underpinnings of the Christian value system. The only way Communism could advance would be if Christianity could be rendered powerless; or, as Jesus said, if the salt was to lose his savor.

Do you remember the cries of the hippies? “Hey Hey, Ho Ho, Western Civ has got to go.” It was the fight song of Communism. The only thing preventing government from being god was the fact that the throne was already occupied. Twentieth century American’s believed that Jesus was God. The followers of Marx and his acolytes knew that to ascend to the throne they would have to overthrow God. They would advance gradually. “Make haste slowly” was their mantra and they would be patient.

They seized our public schools and infiltrated the universities. They captured the media, Hollywood, music, art, literature, science, history, civic organizations, and the seminaries. They changed the world by changing the way we thought about words; tolerance, social justice, economic justice, peace, reproductive rights, sex education and safe sex, safe schools, inclusion, diversity, and sensitivity were their linguistic weapons. (Is it just me or are those words permeating all of society today?) Do you think this happened by accident?

They would use our children to impeach God. Applying Critical Theory they would attack all things Christian. The Boy Scouts were bigots, the Ten Commandments were judgmental, Christmas was exclusive, and traditional marriage was discriminatory. They brainwashed us to think that real Christians were inclusive and tolerant, that truth was relative, that all cultures were the same and that homosexuality was not a sin.

They didn’t have to kill Jesus, only His influence. To be considered a good citizen in this new America, one only had to be tolerant of everything and believe in nothing. In fact, to be sure that you kept your thoughts to yourself they began to call certain thoughts “crimes.” They attacked you and even destroyed you if you dared to speak against them. Slowly, the voice of Jesus was muted.

Into the void the god-haters slinked. A different Christianity and a different America emerged. The God of judgment and wrath was dead and a resurrected “non-judgmental” Jesus became the new god that the new America embraced.

“Democracy is the road to socialism.” said Karl Marx. “Democracy is indispensable to socialism,” said his buddy Vladimir Lenin. “Give us the child for eight years and it will be a Bolshevik forever. Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted. A lie told often enough becomes the truth,” Lenin went on to say.

Elected officials call America a democracy. Our school books teach the same. Yet we are not a democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic, a nation of limited government chained down by a Constitution. Kill the Constitution and the Marxists can create or ignore the law. Change the words, change the world.

Communism can only thrive in the absence of the Gospel. Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is Liberty. Lady Liberty has been nearly decapitated.

But the battle is far from over. Each one of us is going to have to decide on just how valuable we think liberty is. Are you willing to sit silently as the chains of slavery are forged for your children? Ben Franklin warned us, “Anyone who trades liberty for security deserves neither liberty nor security.” We should heed his words.

Washington DC is rapidly becoming the enemy. It is the terrorists with Ivy League degrees that should scare us. The ideological wars are really a religious war. Intellectual terrorism has reaped more havoc on this land than Al Qaeda ever will. Will the God of the Bible and the Principles that He declares rule on earth? Or will we give in to the “tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world.” Our generation will make the decision.

Marxists are in control of America. They are not liberals, they are not progressives, they are Communists. Their godless system has failed every place it has been tried. America is their beachhead. Will she be overthrown? Will Jesus lose this Spiritual battle? Will He yield the world once again to the Devil? I think not. “For the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof.” We are His ambassadors on the earth. It is time to do our duty.

So here is a good place to start. Let us take back our language. Stop allowing the cultural Marxists to create new labels. We must call things what they are.

• “Progressives” and “liberals” are Marxists
• “Conservativism” is counterfeit salt.
• “Pro-choice” means pro-baby murder.
• A “fetus” is an unborn child.
• “Tolerance” means acceptance of sin.
• “Gays” are sodomites.
• “Affirmative Action” is white male discrimination.
• An “undocumented worker” is an illegal alien.
• The “mainstream media” are Marxists.
• The “religious left” are humanistic socialists.
• “Social justice” means advancement of homosexuality.
• “Reproductive rights” is a buzz word for abortion.
• “Sex education” is destruction of natural childhood modesty.
• “Economic justice” is welfare.
• “Government investment” means taxation.
• “Sensitivity” means keep your mouth shut.
• “Diversity” validates deviant ways to engage in sex.
• A “Republican” is a socialist and a “Democrat” is a communist.
• An “expert” is an academician with no practical experience.
• “Public education” is atheistic, humanistic indoctrination.
• “Separation of church and state” legalizes Christian discrimination.
• Supreme Court “decisions” are opinions and are not laws.
• “Christianity” is not a religion; it is a kingdom.
• “Change” means Communism.

America can be saved if Americans will wake up. Stop using their words. Words have power. Let us call a Marxist a Marxist.  Stand up and speak up. Our kids are depending on us.

“Useful men, who do useful things, don’t mind being treated as useless. But the useless always judge themselves as being important and hide all their incompetence behind authority.” —Paulo Coelho

With an invasion of over 11 million illegal aliens now penetrating every corner of America, it’s safe to say that Joe Biden will go down in history as the most useless, incompetent and inept president ever to be elected to the presidency.  He did it at blinding speed in 37 months. He did it without any understanding of the long-term consequences.  He accomplished his intention to fundamentally change America from its successful foundation to a crumbling nightmare of accelerating conflict.

“The problem with incompetence is its inability to recognize itself,” said Orrin Woodward

Whether it’s Barack Obama, who vowed to fundamentally change America, or his followers who are entrenched in the Biden White House situation room—there is no question that America is being changed by one man or his handlers.

As the radio host Charlamagne said, “Biden has no main character energy.”

In other words, he’s boring because he is 81 years old with severe dementia and cognitive problems.  He’s not in charge. He’s not  making rational  decisions. He’s not capable of handling the  rigors of being president of the United States.  Ironic that he has never worked a real job in his life in that he has been on the public dole in Washington DC  for over 50 years.  He never introduced one piece of legislation that improved America.  He’s on par with Maxine Waters, Ilhan Omar or Rashida Talaib who are just as useless.  He was an avowed racist through the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s, but somehow transformed into Black America’s hero in the last 20 years.

The New York Times wrote this week, “Biden is not up for another term.”

Henry Hazlitt said, “The whole gospel of Karl Marx can be summed up in a single sentence: Hate the man who is better off than you are. Never under any circumstances admit that his success may be due to his own efforts, to the productive contribution he has made to the whole community. Always attribute his success to the exploitation, the cheating, the more or less open robbery of others. Never under any circumstances admit that your own failure may be owing to your own weakness, or that the failure of anyone else may be due to his own defects – his laziness, incompetence, improvidence, or stupidity.”

The incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan that got 13 military personnel killed proved sheer incompetence by Biden and his General Milley.  The incredible incompetence and outright corruption of inviting over 11 million illegal aliens into our country tops the list for sheer insanity of non-leadership. The stunning deaths of 300,000 of our young people in the last three years from Biden’s open borders for drug cartels should have him impeached for his incompetence.  The fact that he can’t put two sentences together in one speech or enforce our nation’s laws should make him eligible for the 25^th Amendment.

“In a hierarchy, every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence.” Lawrence Peter, The Peter Principle

Mr. Peter wrote that book in the 1960’s. It states that in a system like ours, every person is promoted to his or her highest level of incompetence. Once at that level, that person wreaks havoc on everyone below their “rank” or “level” of authority.

As to all the “Sanctuary Cities”, all hell is breaking loose. It’s costing billions to house, feed and care for 11 million plus people who broke into our country without permission.  One African-American yelled at the Chicago City Council, “Biden’s junkin’ up our city with these illegals.”  Another Black said, “What about our people being served instead of all those illegals?”

New York Sanctuary City Mayor Adams said, “This invasion is destroying New York City.”  Well, if you call illegal aliens beating up cops and shooting people, you would be correct. But then,  Adams supports the 172,000 law breakers who have invaded his city.  The costs are now into the hundreds of millions of dollars.

Whether you’re one of the 38 percent of Americans who approve of Joe Biden, which means you must be suffering from Alzheimer’s, too…because no one in his or her right mind would support such incompetence.  Or, you’re part of the rest of the majority of the country that wants him to drop out…he’s already done the damage that won’t be solved unless every one of those people faces deportation.

No matter how you look at “incompetence”, Joe Biden has set the benchmark for the worst president in American history.

Where are we headed, as a country? Two of this week’s nooze stories suggest the ship is headed for the rocks.

I’m sure that when we created the Dept. of Homeland Security (looking more and more like one of the all-time bad ideas), we never thought it would wind up slithering its tentacles into our neighborhood schools. Oh, but they are!

As if it weren’t more than bad enough to have the FBI “investigating” parents who complain about their local school board’s Far Left sex-grooming policies, now the DHS is getting involved. Simply put, they are training teachers and students to spy on one another and rat each other out for “disinformation” and “violent extremism.” They are setting up a “K-12 surveillance program” (“K!” As in kindergarten? Really?) with a 12-week training course. Kids will spy on teachers, and each other, and teachers will spy on kids… and each other. Presumably DHS will do the rest. (“Ve haff vays of making you talk, comrade!”)

Of course we have no idea what the kooks in the Biden administration define as “disinformation” or “extremism.” These are apt to be exceeding broad definitions. Climate Change Denial! Election Results Denial! Gender Fluidity Denial! Anything that bucks The Narrative. Somewhere out there must be a first-grader who can’t name all the genders. Get him!

(Sorry for all the capital letters. I had to find some way to stress the sheer hypocrisy of the entire public education enterprise. Especially now that it’s so solidly welded to the Democrat Party.)

And what are many of the rest of us keeping busy with, as Rome burns? Another news item suggests: not much.

A Washington, D.C., man is suing Powerball for leading him to believe, all too briefly, that he had won $450 million in the lottery… When in fact he hadn’t.

They made a “mistake,” you see, when they posted the winning numbers on line one night in 2023—and kept them up there for six hours—while the real winning numbers, totally different, were announced on the live broadcast. So for a little while, this poor guy was deliriously happy, convinced he had just acquired fabulous wealth without having had to do a lick of work for it—not that you’d ever get $450 million just by working for it. All he had to do was buy a lottery ticket: didn’t have to earn it.

Whoops. Sorry about that, dude. You had the wrong numbers.

So he’s suing them. Honk if you think he has any better chance of winning the lawsuit than he had of winning the Powerball.

We all really do have to work harder if we don’t want our country going belly-up. All we have to do to save it is overcome the Democrat Party, the deep state, teachers’ unions, Hollywood, The Global Elite, a zillion illegal aliens, a running-dog nooze media that never tells the truth, and the kind of mind-set that gets seduced by Powerball. Smack them down and we’re home-free.

Pray harder.

I have discussed these and other topics throughout the week on my blog, http://www.leeduigon.com/ . Click the link and visit; it’s cheaper than a ticket for the Powerball. My articles can also be found at www.chalcedon.edu/ .

February 22, 2024

February 22, 2022, is the 290th anniversary of the birth in 1732 of General and President George Washington, the “Father Of Our Country.” He was the most universally respected and admired American in the age of the Founding Fathers, and in the history of America.

For generations, George Washington’s Birthday was a National Holiday celebrated on the actual anniversary of his birth, February 22. On Washington’s Birthday. Americans paused to remember and honor him. Parents and schools taught American children about his life on his birthday; urged the children to learn about the Father Of His [Their] Country; and to follow his example of patriotic love of country, selfless service and sacrifice for freedom, personal honor, dedication to duty, fidelity to principle.

By observing Washington’s Birthday as a National Holiday on his actual birth date, Feb. 22, the focus of the nation was on Washington. However, all that changed in 1971. Congress — pressured by federal government bureaucrats and other employees and their unions  desiring another paid three-day holiday — abolished “Washington’s Birthday” as a National Holiday. It was replaced with “Presidents’ Day,” to be observed on the “third Monday of February,” as a result of the “Uniform Monday Holiday Act,” which gave government employees their sought after three-day weekend.

As a result, Americans in general, and in particular American children in government schools, learn little or nothing about the greatest man in the history of America, George Washington, without whose extraordinary virtues and sacrifices they would not be free.

Further, and ignominiously, Washington’s Birthday was it was replaced by “President’s Day.” Got it? Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln—who were giants in history, were lumped in with the likes of politicians who held the office of President, but did little or nothing to ennoble it, and much to ignoble it by incompetence or moral failure.

No other president has been so universally admired in America — or in the world — as was General George Washington. Washington was by far the most admired man of the Founding Father’s generation. He was called the “Father Of His Country.” He was America’s first President, and the only President unanimously elected, and unanimously re-elected. He was, as Revolutionary War hero General “Light Horse” Harry Lee memorably said: “First in war. First in peace. First in the hearts of his countrymen.”

Can that be said today, when Washington’s Birthday  is no longer a National Holiday, and the nation’s children learn more in progressive liberal, politically correct, cultural-relativist government schools about  “the life of Mohammad” than the life of George Washington?

When schools, politicians, and media celebrate such farcical concocted “holidays” as “Kwanzaa” (never a holiday or observed  in Africa) or  “Cinco de Mayo” (never a holiday or observed in Mexico), while George Washington’s Birthday Holiday is no more?

George Washington, first, last, and always a soldier serving God and Country, was heralded in his time as the “Apostle of Liberty,” the “Indispensable Man,” having with his ragtag band of American citizen-soldiers of the Revolutionary Army defeated the English Empire, then the most powerful military force in the world, in eight years of war to establish our American independence, our freedom.

Washington did not seek the Presidency–it sought him. He was elected unanimously –twice. He was offered the Presidency for life.  But he stunned the world when he refused a third term  and even monarchial rule, and, instead walked away from power to return to his home as citizen. He was, is, our American “Cincinatus.” Washington, like that Fifth Century (BC), Roman general, fought the battles of the nation; held unequaled power; but did not covet it, and instead returned to his farm. So was Washington satisfied to be a citizen of a free America, rather than its ruler.

When Washington did that, walked away from ultimate power, even England’s King George III, whom Washington had defeated in our War of Independence, hailed Washington “as the greatest man of his era.”

John Adams, his successor as President, said of him: “If we look over the catalogue of the first magistrates of nations, whether they have been denominated Presidents or Consuls, Kings or Princes, where shall we find one whose commanding talents and virtues, whose overruling good fortune, have so completely united all hearts and voices in his favor?…His example is complete; and it will teach wisdom and virtue  to Magistrates, Citizens, and Men, not only in the present age, but in future generations.”

Thomas Jefferson, father of the Declaration of Independence and our third president, said of Washington that he was: ”The only man in the United States who possessed the confidence of all. There was no other one who was considered as anything more than a party leader….And it may be truly said that never did nature and fortune combine more perfectly to make a man great, and to place him in the same constellation with whatever worthies have merited from man an everlasting remembrance.”

Even the Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, who admitted his love of power and yielded to no man a claim of greater glory than he himself possessed, spoke of his admiration of Washington: “This great man fought against tyranny: he established the liberty of his country. His memory will always be dear to the French people, as it will be to all freemen.”

Are those words  still true to this generation of Americans? Those words of Adams, Jefferson, Gen. Harry Lee, the English King George III and the French Emperor Napoleon, all speaking with awe at the example of Washington’s life as one which would be taught “not only in the present age, but in future generations,” as John Adams said, and his memory “held dear..to all free men” as Napoleon said?

Is Washington still  “First in war. First in peace. First in the hearts of his countrymen,” as Gen. “Light Horse” Harry Lee said of him? If not, why not?

Are we Americans better for it, as a people, as a nation, when we honor no longer the one American who was so universally acknowledged in his time —  and up to this generation of transformed Americans —  as the Greatest American, the Father Of Our Country? He who defeated tyranny, held ultimate power by acclamation and then walked away from it to preserve the freedom he had created as a soldier? He who lived his life for God and Country?

Are the children of a nation, like the children of a family, really better off, better people, by forgetting their father, being without their father, forgetting the virtues their father taught, being orphaned?

We Americans today, whatever our ages, whatever our ancestry, ethnicity, or race, as Americans, are the children of the American  Founding Fathers, including in the particular George Washington, whom the Founding Fathers proclaimed the greatest among them, the Father Of Our Country.

May both the God that George Washington so faithfully served bless and keep him; may the Country he so loyally served always remember and honor him;  and may the lessons of his life be learned in this and every generation so that the freedom he fought for and created may not wither and weaken, to be destroyed by enemies foreign, or domestic.

Tell Congress to repeal the “Uniform Monday Holiday Act,” no matter the tears and anguish of taxpayer-paid government employees who will be deprived of another  three-day holiday — and no matter the loss to the politicians of those government employees’ campaign contributions by which they purchased their uniform three-day weekend holidays from the politicians by elimination of George Washington’s Birthday for the uninspiring “Presidents Day.”

Congress should re-establish George Washington’s Birthday as a National Holiday — and celebrate it on his actual birth day, February 22. The Father Of Our Country deserves no less. The people of our nation, especially the children, deserve no less.

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

• When does the No Fly List become a tool of tyranny?
• Can government actors avoid the consequences of their actions by simply calling them moot?
• Could you be on the No Fly List and not even know it.

While looking through recent oral arguments at the Supreme Court, I stumbled across the case FBI v. Fikre. At first, I thought it was another simple procedural case, but something about it caught my attention. The oral arguments held before the Supreme Court were about whether Mr. Fikre’s rights were violated when he was placed on the No Fly List, and was not moot because he ad been removed from the list. As I started looking deeper into the case though, I found intrigue worthy of a Grisham novel.

The No Fly List

Most Americans have heard of the “No Fly List”. Created after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the “watch list” is actually two lists.

The Terrorist Screening Center, a division within the FBI’s National Security Branch, maintains a terrorism watchlist. Two components of that watchlist are the No Fly List, which contains the names of individuals who are prohibited from flying within, to, from, and over the United States, and the Selectee List, which contains the names of individuals who must undergo enhanced security screening before being permitted to board a flight.

FBI v Fikre – Petition for Certiorari

According to Laura K. Donohue in her book The Cost of Counterterrorism: Power, Politics, and Liberty, when the watch list was created, the No Fly and Selectee lists contained less than 1,000 names. By April, 2005, those lists contained over 70,000 names. Updated numbers are hard to obtain since the FBI keeps membership in the list secret, even from those on the list.

Individuals can appeal travel-related issues through DHS’s Traveler Redress Inquiry Program (TRIP). See 49 C.F.R. 1560.205. Before 2015, individuals who requested redress using DHS TRIP were not told whether they were on the No Fly List and were not given any reasons or evidence supporting their possible inclusion on that list. …

In 2015, the government revised DHS TRIP to include additional procedural safeguards. See ibid. United States citizens and lawful permanent residents seeking redress now are told whether they are on the No Fly List and, to the extent possible consistent with national-security and law-enforcement interests, the reasons for their status.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Fikre v. FBI

Which brings us to Mr. Yonas Fikre and his encounter with the No Fly List and the FBI.

Fikre is an American citizen who, until 2009, lived in Portland, Oregon and worked for a cellular telephone company. In late 2009, Fikre traveled to Sudan to establish a consumer electronics business in East Africa. In April 2010, while still in Sudan, Fikre was approached by two FBI agents who questioned him about his association with the as-Saber Mosque in Portland and his commercial finances. The agents told Fikre that he had been placed on the No Fly List, which identifies individuals who are prohibited from flying into, out of, or over the United States and Canadian airspace by commercial airlines.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

A United States citizen travels to Sudan for work, where he is approached and questioned by two FBI agents. While I did not find the details in the Ninth Circuit opinion, it appears that the primary, if not only reason, the FBI questions Mr. Fikre was his association with a mosque and his business. Somehow, this was enough to place Mr. Fikre on the infamous No Fly List. Or was it?

The FBI agents offered to remove Fikre from the list if he became a government informant. Fikre refused.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Here’s where red flags flew up for me. Is Mr. Fikre a danger to air travel, or merely a potential informant for the FBI? Either way, Mr. Fikre was unable to return to the country of his citizenship because he had been put on a list. But his tribulations were not over.

Fikre’s business took him to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in September 2010. As recounted by Fikre, Emirati secret police seized him from the place where he was staying in June 2011 and transported him to an unknown location where he was imprisoned and tortured for 106 days. During this time, Fikre was interrogated about his connection to the as-Saber Mosque and the nature of his financial dealings.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Why was the UAE interested in a mosque in Portland, OR?

One of the interrogators told Fikre that the FBI had requested his detention.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Mr. Fikre was released by UAE officials in September 2011. Since he was unable to return home because of being on the No Fly List, he sought refuge in Sweden.

Getting Off the No Fly List

While the process for being placed on the No Fly List is shrouded in secrecy, the government was nice enough to provide a way to challenge your placement.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS)’s Traveler Redress Inquiry Program (TRIP) allows individuals the opportunity to have the Transportation Security Administration review and, if appropriate, correct their files if it determines that a person has been erroneously placed on a watchlist.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

It appears, when it comes to the No Fly List, you’re considered guilty until proven innocent. That is, if you could actually find out you were on the No Fly List.

As initially implemented in 2007, the government responded to TRIP inquiries without confirming a traveler’s inclusion on the No Fly List. Fikre attempted in November 2013 to rectify his situation through TRIP, but the DHS neither confirmed nor denied his placement on the No Fly List in response to this first inquiry; it stated only that “no changes or corrections [we]re warranted at th[at] time.”

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Basically, the United States government would neither confirm, nor deny, that Mr. Fikre was on the No Fly List, even though he was not allowed to board an airplane to the United States because he was on the list. Standard bureaucratic double-speak.

In 2015, the DHS modified TRIP to comply with the judgment in Latif v. Holder, 28 F. Supp. 3d 1134 (D. Or. 2014). The revised TRIP protocol includes additional procedural safeguards that were unavailable at the time Fikre filed his action. Requesters are now apprised of their presence or absence on the No Fly List and the unclassified reasons for their status. Applying the revised procedures, in February 2015 the DHS informed Fikre that he was and would remain on the No Fly List because he had been “identified as an individual who may be a threat to civil aviation or national security.” No other reasons were provided for the decision to maintain Fikre on the No Fly List.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Eight years after its implementation, the Traveler Redress Inquiry Program now actually admits if someone is on the No Fly List. Now this program admits Mr. Fikre is, in fact, on the No Fly List. The only reason given is that someone thinks he is a threat to civil aviation or national security. Apparently, the concept of Due Process is as foreign to the FBI as the idea of liberty and justice for all.

Fighting Back

What did Mr. Fikre do in response to this revelation from the FBI? He filed a lawsuit.

Fikre avers that these events damaged his reputation by stigmatizing him as a suspected terrorist and so strained his marriage that his wife divorced him while he was stranded outside of the country.

Fikre brought the instant suit against the government raising a variety of common law, statutory, and constitutional claims. As relevant here, Fikre alleged that the FBI violated his right to substantive due process by depriving him of his liberty interest in his reputation and international travel, and by conditioning his removal from the No Fly List upon his agreement to become a government informant. Fikre’s complaint also maintained that the FBI denied him procedural due process by placing and keeping him on the No Fly List without adequate notice and an opportunity to be heard. Fikre prayed for injunctive and declaratory relief for both due process claims and asked, among other things, for a declaration by the government that he should not have been added to the No Fly List.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

The court noted that Mr. Fikre’s original complaint contained 16 causes of action, but the appeal only dealt with his due process and Fourth Amendment claims.

This is when the next twist in our saga appeared.

The Defendants moved to dismiss the operative complaint and, shortly thereafter, notified Fikre that he had been removed from the No Fly List. In a joint status report filed at the district court’s direction, Fikre agreed that, to the extent he sought an injunction requiring the Defendants to remove him from the list, that claim was moot. Fikre contended, however, that he remained entitled to other injunctive and declaratory relief.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Now that they’re being sued, the FBI removes Fikre from the No Fly List, then claims he no longer has a cause of action because he’s not on the list anymore. The Ninth Circuit Court noted:

The district court subsequently dismissed Fikre’s remaining procedural and substantive due process claims in a detailed decision. The court reasoned that the government’s removal of Fikre from the No Fly List was “a sufficiently definite action” to render his claims moot. In reaching this conclusion, the district court observed that the Defendants had publicly stated that Fikre was no longer on the No Fly List, that more than six months had elapsed since this change in status, and that the record did not indicate a lack of good faith on the government’s part. The district court also “emphasize[d]” that “the courthouse doors will be open to [Fikre]” were he to be reinstated to the No Fly List in the future.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Not only did the District Court ignore the consequences of the FBI placing Mr. Fikre on the No Fly List, it actually claimed there was no lack of good faith on the government’s part. To my knowledge, the FBI has yet to produce any evidence of probable cause that Mr. Fikre was ever a threat to air travel or national security. Furthermore, the FBI tried to extort Mr. Fikre to become an informant in exchange for not only being removed from the list, but being allowed to go home. There is also testimony that the FBI engaged a foreign entity, the United Arab Emeries, to detain and torture Mr. Fikre in what appears to be an attempt to circumvent U.S. law and the Constitution. How much bad faith does the District Court need?

We reverse the district court’s dismissal of Fikre’s due process claims and remand for further proceedings.

Fikre v. FBI (16-36072) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

In 2018, eleven years after his saga began, the Ninth Circuit reversed the District Court’s decision of mootness. This means the case went back to the District Court to be heard. One might hope that Mr. Fikre’s ordeal was over, but no. The District Court again found Mr. Fikre’s case moot, although with a few modifications. Once again, Mr. Fikre appealed to the Ninth Circuit.

The panel reversed the district court’s dismissal on mootness grounds of Yonas Fikre’s substantive due process and non-stigma-related procedural due process No Fly List claims; vacated the district court’s dismissal of Fikre’s stigma-plus procedural due process claim; and remanded to the district court to consider, in the first instance, whether Fikre stated a viable stigma-plus procedural due process claim considering both his past placement on the No Fly List and his alleged inclusion in the Terrorist Screening Database.

Fikre v. FBI (20-35904) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

Meanwhile the District Court separated the stigma-related and non-stigma-related claims, the Circuit Court pointed out.

The panel held that because the government failed to follow the instructions given by this Court the last time Fikre’s case was before the court, see Fikre v. FBI (Fikre I), 904 F.3d 1033 (9th Cir. 2018), the district court erred by dismissing as moot Fikre’s No Fly List claims.

Fikre v. FBI (20-35904) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

What did the government fail to do?

In Fikre I, the Court held that an exception to mootness – the voluntary cessation doctrine – applied to Fikre’s No Fly List claim. On remand, FBI Supervisory Special Agent Christopher Courtright filed a declaration in support of the government’s motion to dismiss. The panel held that the Courtright Declaration did not provide the assurances specified by Fikre I as adequate to overcome the voluntary cessation to mootness. The government has assured Fikre only that he does not currently meet the criteria for inclusion on the No Fly List. It has not repudiated the decision to place Fikre on the list, nor has it identified any criteria for inclusion on the list that may have changed. Because Fikre I governs, the district court should not have dismissed the No Fly List due process claims as moot.

Fikre v. FBI (20-35904) – Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals – Opinion

So the FBI basically said “Oops”, and thought that would get them off the hook. Well, the Ninth Circuit didn’t buy that. And since the FBI did not buy the Ninth Circuit’s opinion, they appealed to the Supreme Court.

Supreme Court

The court of appeals erred in holding that respondent’s claims challenging his placement on the No Fly List are not moot even though he was removed from that list seven years ago and the government has submitted a sworn declaration stating that he “will not be placed on the No Fly List in the future based on the currently available information.”

FBI v Fikre – Petition for Certiorari

Not surprising, the FBI seems to be ignoring those inconvenient facts found in the Ninth Circuit case. The reasoning behind their appeal? It’s that other circuits have found differently.

The court’s holding directly conflicts with decisions of the Fourth and Sixth Circuits that have found similar No Fly List claims moot upon the execution of declarations materially identical to the one in this case.

FBI v Fikre – Petition for Certiorari

Yet Sopan Joshi, attorney representing the FBI, stated in his opening remarks during oral arguments at the Supreme Court claimed:

Respondent’s No Fly List claims are moot. He’s not on the list. He hasn’t been on the list in eight years. And he won’t be put back on the list in the future based on the currently available information. That makes it absolutely clear that his return to the list for the same reasons he was put on it initially can’t reasonably be expected to recur.

FBI v. Fikre – Oral Arguments before the Supreme Court

How is it absolutely clear that Mr. Fikre will not be returned to the No Fly List for the same reason he was initially put on it, if the FBI refuses to identify the reason he was put on the list in the first place? And how can Mr. Fikre avoid being placed on the list if the FBI won’t identify what changed to have him removed from the list?

Conclusion

What at first seemed to be little more than a procedural case has really captured my attention. Intrigue, spy craft, and black lists reminds me of the Tom Clancy novels I used to enjoy. Imagine being stranded overseas, unable to return home, and not knowing the reason why? He was interrogated first by the FBI, and next by a foreign power’s secret police. Then, when you finally get your day in court, the government simply changes its mind and expects to get away scot-free.

This should be an interesting opinion to read. I wonder how many U.S. citizens have been captured by the No Fly List without any probable cause or due process? This is also not the first time a government has attempted to get away with illegal acts by changing things after the fact and calling the claims against them moot. All in all, it could be a very interesting opinion indeed.

by Idaho State Senator Phil Hart

February 20, 2024

In our 2024 legislative session at the Statehouse in Boise, the bill that I have worked on the hardest is not a bill that I am promoting, it’s a bill that I am trying to amend.  Without at least three amendments, this bill is a train wreck.  I am talking about House Bill 406 (HB406), legislation that will create mandatory minimum prison sentences for trafficking in fentanyl.  One of the main concerns is that language of the bill is written so broadly that this bill will likely increase Idaho’s prison population so much that we will need to build a new prison.  The financial impact of HB406 is in the multiple of hundreds of millions of dollars.

My first objection to the bill is that it defines trafficking in such a way that moderate users of fentanyl are going to be classified as traffickers just because they had a three day to a five day supply of their drugs on hand.  These people will be sent to prison for three to ten years just for using the drug while having done nothing to traffic any drugs; although the charge will be “trafficking”.   Without HB406’s mandatory minimum sentences, a first offender would most likely go to drug court for a cost to the tax payers of $13,000 a year.  Instead, with the passage of HB406, Idaho tax payers will be paying $90,000 to $300,000 to warehouse these people.

The flood of fentanyl coming across our southern border is being done on an industrial scale, and it is going to take a military operation to end it.  This bill is being promoted as a way to go after the Mexico drug cartels, but HB406 won’t even create a speed bump for the real drug kingpins.

(Pictured here is Cochise County Arizona Sheriff Mark Dannels, center, with Senator Phil Hart, right, and Johnothan Alexander on the left of Live Border News, November 27, 2023, Sierra Vista Arizona.  Cochise County and Santa Cruz County to its west see 25% of the fentanyl coming across it’s border with Mexico.)

A mandatory minimum statute ties the judge’s hands and forces him to sentence a defendant to a term in prison that the legislature determined the length of.  Never mind that the judge is close to the case and can make a determination as to what is best for the defendant and best for public’s safety.  Mandatory minimums were first used in New York beginning in 1973.  Michigan implemented them in 1976 and Florida in 1979.  These three states, having seen their prison populations explode upward and their costs go through the roof, have abandoned their earlier policies of mandatory minimums for a mix of rehabilitation programs for some, and prison sentences for others.  They also learned that the “traffickers” they imprisoned were generally the low-level mules who transported drugs to get a cut of them for free to support their drug habit.  The kingpin traffickers would not get caught.  These three states came to the conclusion that warehousing non-violent offenders for years was a poor use of tax payer’s money.  Reforms followed.

“In New York, the “buyer’s remorse” was almost immediate.  One of Governor Rockfeller’s closest aids, Joe Persico, helped push the bill through the legislature.  Looking back, Persico said, “I concluded very early that this was a failure.  It’s filling up the prisons with first time offenders.  This was obviously unjust – and not just unjust, it was unwise; it was ineffective.”[1]

Another aspect of HB406 that qualifies it as a train wreck is the language that provides that any mixture of any materials will be deemed to be pure fentanyl if it contains just a trace of the illegal drug.  For example, today getting caught with one fentanyl pill will send you to drug court for 6 months, but drop that pill into a quart of water and now you have a combined substance of one gram of fentanyl plus 899 grams of water.  However, the statute will say it is 900 grams of fentanyl and you are going to prison for 10 years as a trafficker.

Sen. Hart in Douglas Arizona (Cochise County) at the Mexico border November 26, 2023

Two weekends ago, I met with 22 recovering drug and alcohol users.  One of them told of how he was prosecuted by the federal government for fentanyl possession.  The Fed’s sent his fentanyl pills to a lab where they determined that 10% of his pills were fentanyl, and the other 90% was filler.  He got prosecuted for possessing a quantity of fentanyl that represented 10% of the weight of his pills.  If the federal government can determine an exact amount of the drug, why can’t the state of Idaho?  It is not because dummies live in Idaho.  Idaho leads the nation in the number of patents issued per capita.[2]  In Idaho, we can do better.

Lastly, section 3 of the bill creates a new crime called “Drug Induced Homicide”.  The crime occurs when someone dies of an overdose and another person was sharing that drug with them.  The surviving party will be charged with this low-level form of murder.  There doesn’t even need to be any intent to kill.  If you were there, and you both partook of the same drug, you can be found guilty of this statutorily defined murder.  I am told that the lack of “intent to kill” is a constitutional defect in the bill.  The experts that I am listening to believe this will be challenged in court.  Most likely the challenger will be someone who is charged with this “drug induced homicide” and will use a public defender as their lawyer.  On the other side of the case will be the state of Idaho defending its statutes.  For this case, tax payers will be paying for both sides of the case.  Oh, what a poor use of tax payers’ money!  It would be better to amend the bill and use language that is not guaranteed to end up in court.

I believe this new law, with its expanded definition of what constitutes trafficking, will add hundreds of additional inmates to Idaho’s prisons.  Because our prisons are already full and we are storing prisoners in other states, it will also add to the cost of transporting our inmates around the country.  House Bill 406 will add $100,000,000’s to Idaho’s budget, and we will have to build at least one new prison paid for with higher taxes.

February 20, 2024

My dear fellow Americans, recently APC published my article concerning the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) on a local level. Thank you for all the feedback I’ve received. This article will give you a first person account of what happened as a result of practicing citizen activism. Read, share and let’s band together!

LMT

A Local’s Experience:

As many of you may know, I make it a point to speak up in my local government as much as I can. Currently, the town of Mooresville, NC is conducting a series of town meetings to invite citizens to weigh in on the latest comprehensive planning efforts. Now, if you’ve followed my blog for a while, you know that I’ve reported Mooresville is in the thick of becoming a UN (United Nations) hub. You also know that I’ve shared how the town has been a pilot for the massive amounts of student data harvesting/tracking; inclusive housing (meaning to create housing for workforce), and other items which fit right into the CCSS Machine. However, Mooresville is hardly alone in its efforts to become a cookie cutter hotbed of conformity.

When I attended the first citizen meeting, it was held at a citizen center. The meeting room was laid out in almost a maze-like pattern of stations.

Upon walking in the door, there was a place to make a name tag for yourself as well as fill out a short survey which included your address, email, income level and if you owned or rented a home. You were given a one page flier at this table which laid out the context: hands-on, interactive conversations where I could share my desires for making my town a place to live/work/learn/play.

As soon as you left that table you were guided to the first of 10 stations. At the first station you were given 3 poker chips and a choice of 6 flower pots.

Each pot was described by the leader of the entire city project: a non-resident who was hired by the Town to head up the “Mooresville Tomorrow” project*. The department which hired Mack (not his real name) is the Planning and Community Development Dept. As Mack introduced us to the concept for our time together, he shared that the focus was to help the Town shape its goals and strategies for the future. He also shared that Mooresville HAD to do this. I asked why and was told that no matter what town or city Mack goes to, he helps guide plans to fit zoning and rezoning efforts. Again, I asked why is this necessary. The answer I received is a big clue for you to look in your town/city or area (in the US and across the world): state laws (federal and regional, too) REQUIRE every local municipality to have zones. IF those zoning laws are not met, funding gets cut and citizens could suffer. So when Mack told me almost comically in response to my questions “It’s the law.” I knew it was trouble. Any hope of weighing in on what I wanted my tax dollars to support and not being pre-selected for me, went out the door.

(*Note: The Mooresville Tomorrow project appears to be an extension of the already approved and in the works “Mooresville One” Plan which is a comprehensive combination of turning a historic town into a modern 15 minute mess. Some of the same images and plots are showing up in both.)

Which leads me back to the 6 flower pots. NONE of the options were what I would even consider worth investing in.

Pot #1: access to the local lake (the description stated that as a group, town residents highly value the lake and its environmental/recreational benefits. Planning ahead means as more rack and stack apartments are built near the lake, public access is a must. I must point out that this lake is the chief water source for the entire area, especially inside the town limits. (This pot’s purpose totally glosses over the fact that the lake being built around has been suspected and investigated for a tremendously high rate of all types of cancer in the area, as well as, many citizens do not use the lake or care to access it because the have their own environment and recreational needs met at their choosing.)

Pot #2: fostering development of walkable multi-use centers. (described as a way to meet the changing needs of workers and households so that a balance between urban and traditional spaces can mesh. The example given was to re-create Charlotte NC’s City Center in Mooresville. The future holds that new development will be built this way while older neighborhoods are redeveloped.)

Pot #3: focusing on regional and internal mobility connections (in other words, how can traffic become less about your car and how you travel using more public or becoming more pedestrian)

Pot #4: providing opportunities for developing new housing choices (first off, housing is a defined market including mobile homes, single family homes, apartments and condominiums. So this begs the question, what other type of housing is there? The description for this pot stated that after several attempts to have affordable housing for the workforce, this is a must to cut down on the 70 percent who commute to work. I can attest that of the new rack/stack apartments, rent starts out at well over $1,000 a month; well above what many limited income residents can afford. This counts those gainfully employed as well as those who are being forced out of their single family homes and into rental properties.) So, is this really about housing ‘choices’ or reducing your travel?

Pot #5: leveraging utility and transportation investments to support economic and housing development (described as the city government has been ‘fortunate to have more than $1.1 billion in public transportation funds.) Between local bonds (bonds are deferred taxation schemes), state and federal funds’. So the future means we must address new infrastructure.

Note: any city, town, state or federal entity which puts economics first, over people is fascist. Go back and read the pot’s point: ‘economic and housing’, not housing and economic. Also note that if you meet anyone who drives in this part of NC, the road planning which exists has been in need of addressing WELL before anything in the future!

Pot #6: expanding quality of life through green spaces (the description revealed that town residents have identified parks and trails as important. More greenways, civic spaces are important. Again, Charlotte is the example.)

Note: The problems with using Charlotte as an example are a) major population difference, b) major city vs town, c) Charlotte is among the Climate Mayors (Extra Note: over 500 US cities (Mooresville is also listed as a member) are represented and since the group’s beginning, regardless of local elections, the cities remain on the list, so any previous mayor to those in the future, if your town/city are on the list: watch out.) IF you live outside the US, the Global Covenant of Mayors, which represent close to 13, 000 cities (at least 185 of these are American), is also worth looking into.

The Other Stations:

Anti Fed Ed Warriors, you’re probably wondering when the education part of all this will show up, since that’s my blog’s purpose. Trust me, we will get there and it will be something you may not expect, as far as the SDGs.

However, let me tell you a bit more about the stations.

For 2 of the remaining 9, we were given red and green dot stickers and coached into using them to show our preference for the types of neighborhoods we would prefer. There were duplexes (we currently have plenty), row houses (aka: tiny homes), mixed used neighborhoods (being overrun with these), rack and stack apartments (are seeing massive amounts of trees and land destroyed for these), and single family homes with postage stamp size yards (1/4 acre or smaller, no garage and no front yard). There was also an option to choose a single family home with a ‘large yard’ (meaning a garage, front and back yard not to exceed 1/2 acre. (*Note: so, for all the town’s original city plots which are well over 1/2 acre; what is to become of them? What about the homes which occupy these large lots?) In all the options we were given to choose from, anywhere from one to three stories for mixed use and homes. Apartments would be even taller. Existing building codes prohibit really tall buildings, yet we’re already seeing projects being considered of 6 or more stories!

Some of the other stations had you choose between where you’d spend your money locally, under this new footprint; have you pick out what type of greenspace is best; what changes you’d make to the town based on all the travels and places you’ve lived, as well as share your personal thoughts as to why all this change is or isn’t a good thing. The biggest elephant in the room, however, was Station 5. A roundtable with a picture of home in the middle, 6 destinations surrounding it and piles of purple (public transportation), red (bike), blue (walk) and yellow (car) yarns. The instructions told you to use the color yarn to denote which would be your choice for traveling FOR A PURPOSE. Note, not pleasure, just tasks.

If you ever needed an illustration of being hemmed in, this table certainly showed it.

Where the SDGs Come Out to “Play”:

After I got home, I knew I had to find out what company the town had hired to orchestrate this symphony of agenda. Turns out it’s the APA (American Planning Association). Mack is one of their certified AICPs (American Institute of Certified Planners). These AICPs are progressive in their tactics. They also go to towns and cities all around the country. APA’s tagline is “Creating Great Communities for All”. Their 2024 top priority is ‘zone reform’* to address the ‘housing crisis’.

Meanwhile the AICPs are actively seeking to align themselves to the cities, counties and regions using ‘sustainable development’. When you consider that the APA is in full support (and creating) ‘green communities’, the writing’s on the wall.

(*Note: among the reforms being considered in zoning is the use of AI, artificial intelligence. On the Kuby Team blog you can read about the dangers this brings every family. Where you live is controlled by a computer, not your personal choice.)

Here’s the ‘smoking gun’ about the American Planning Association: they are a key contributor to the UN Economic and Social Council’s High Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development! (*Note: if you are reading this outside the US, you not only have seen meetings like I described, but you can now see where your zoning and governments are intersecting the SDGs under your nose.)

When you access the ‘key contributor’ link, scroll down and you’ll see that the SDG #4 (education is the FIRST listed in regards to the APA’s support and devotion to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Be sure to note the others ones connected to education). APA also has articles you can read on their blog about zoning, 15 minute cities, 20 minute suburbs and more.

Bonus Resources for Your Research/Activism in Fighting the SDGs:

1) Here’s a link to the ICC, International Code Council (where it’s revealed that education is impacted not only by the buildings, but what’s taught inside those buildings when it concerns teaching future planners). While the ICC’s ‘international’ aspect doesn’t cover every single country outside the US, it also uses these same codes for every state of the US. ICC also holds the IZC (International Zoning Codes). This is only available in a purchased book form, however, I did find a link which describes the IZC as arranging compatible buildings and land uses; establishing provisions for use in the interest of social and economic welfare of the community. The ICC/IZC promote UNIFORMITY IN WHERE YOU LIVE and HOW YOU LIVE.

2) The UN’s SEZs (Special Economic Zones) from the World Investment Forum’s website (you’ll see lots of regionalism in adherence to the SDGs)

3) From the SDC (Sustainable Development Code): ‘Green Zones’ which are used by local governments to adhere to the SDGs.

4) “Upzoning” (the ability for local government to change existing codes for taller buildings/more buildings than historically allowed) in order to adhere your town to the SDGs.

5) From World Green Building Council, their promotion of dense cities with ‘green buildings’ for health. Almost every SDG is involved in either your inside living or what happens immediately outside the building or further out in the community. If you visit their website, be sure to read how Harvard University joins them in believing it is buildings which help shape our health.

February 19, 2024

Texas is known as the “Don’t Mess with Me” state.  Should be don’t mess with Texas’s big money political donors who make sure their lapdogs do what they’re told during our legislative sessions.

I was born and raised in California.  A state now completely destroyed by the communists in their state legislature, a lunatic governor (Newsom) and forcing tens of millions of Californians who can’t afford to send their precious child(ren) to a private school to subject their children to dirt and filth in indoctrination centers they call public schools.

My late husband was a retired U.S. Army Colonel.  Off I went from California to the once independent state of Colorado.  Like California and its magnificent coastal waters and mountain forests, Colorado has some of the most spectacular scenery one can imagine.  Sadly, that state (mostly the huge Denver metro area with its massive population) has also gone into the toilet run by liberals and progressives communists.  Also embracing all the poison of the ‘woke’ lunatics, you won’t find me traveling through that state again; no gas, hotel or food expenditures.

Our legislature only meets every other odd year for 140 days.  2023 was a disaster with three special sessions and they still didn’t get the job done.  An absurd 9,111 bills introduced in the last session.  The failed multi-million-dollar political hit job – impeaching our fearless state Attorney General Ken Paxton – hobbled together by a drunk, our Speaker of the House Dade Phelan – to not passing important legislation and completely ignoring important issues.  Behind the scenes, the rot and corruption here is just as bad as California, NY or Illinois.  We’ve got RINO’s growing like weeds in our legislature.

Fortunately, we have really great grassroots organizations all over the state who keep track of bills and votes.  Because the problem is still the same as 2006:  Uninformed, Disinterested, Brainwashed & Special Interest Voters, May 29, 2006 (Mine)

Let me quote the prolific writer of The Great Communitarian Hoax, The Voices of America’s Destruction, Masters of Seduction and Time Bomb, Jeri Lynn Ball:

“Americans are being trained by slow degrees to give up their individuality, independence and autonomy (their unique personal traits, their desires and personal ambitions, their intellectual capacity to direct their own lives). Since individuality is the basic, indispensable property of every living human being, the degree to which he strives to wipe out his own individuality (become selfless) is the degree to which he experiences feelings of helplessness and instability. Individuals who unwittingly embrace the Soviet slave philosophy, i.e. community values (or the Communist morality), including altruism (selflessness) and collectivism (loss of the individual in the collective mass), proceed to disintegrate both mentally and physically.

“They may manifest an array of symptoms ranging from anxiety and chronic depression to despair and suicidal feelings to alcoholism and drug abuse. A growing number of Americans now suffer from eating disorders, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorders and schizophrenia.

“Soviet and American leaders have been achieving the ideological and psychological convergence of the United States and Communist Russia. America is becoming a replica of Russia: sick, brutal, deviant, vulgar and violent, yet slavish and submissive toward governmental authority. Virtually every major problem facing America today is the result of the Communists’ war against the mind and their attack on this country’s founding principles.

“Using the mixture of political indoctrination and the specter of ruthless mass terror, communitarian and mind-subverters have been overwhelmingly successful in their attempt to make selflessness a mass phenomenon and to produce profound feelings of instability, helplessness and worthlessness in many Americans.”

“The communitarian doctrine is a major component in destroying the minds of the American people. This evil concept is being pushed on major college campuses throughout this country. Is it any wonder that America’s young adults in the age range of 20-40 are promoting communism (liberalism, democracy) while they have no understanding of this beast?”

Special interest voters gave us this:  Pelosi & Her Brassiere Brigade, Jan. 8, 2007 (Mine) – “The swearing in of Nancy Pelosi was covered ad nauseum on all networks January 4, 2007. Her coronation as Speaker of the House was hailed as historic! A step for equality! The term equality meaning female instead of one’s complete knowledge of the history of this republic and founding documents. Her Highness has made the promise of bi-partisanship; hold on to your wallet and don’t enlist in any branch of the military any time soon.

“Make no mistake about it: Pelosi’s crowning will be one of the darkest days for freedom and liberty in this country and another gigantic step towards communism, fascism and further weaning the American people into total dependency on mother government.

“This last pretend election cycle, voters heard the same old recycled mantra from female incumbents and candidates. The Sisterhood of Sycophants relentless carping on “women’s issues” in furtherance of “empowering women,” “for the children,” and “building the community” (pure communism). What absolute bilge.

“The feminization of Congress has been destroying constitutional government for decades, running America into oceans of unpayable debt and breeding generations of helpless women, whining for mother government to take care of them and their every need.”  It’s now called the “women’s vote”.

Our legislature has really good reps and senators but we also have way too many RINO’s.  My state rep, Do Nothing Drew Darby has been warming a seat in Austin since 2007.  He only continues to win because of the voting bloc in San Angelo, TX and has the right friends with money.  Of course, Darby voted to impeach Ken Paxton.  I pray voters in his district vote his arse out in our March 5^th primary.  His opponent, Stormy Bradley, is a great challenger and she gets my vote. 

Our U.S. House rep, Jodie Arrington also must go; House District 19.  Jodie who just loves seniors but has consistently refused to co-sponsor or support Thomas Massie’s bill to stop double taxing social security.  (Massie is a Republican from KY.)  Arrington supports screwing seniors (whatever political party) by double taxing their social security.  That bill has been reintroduced by Massie every two years, session after session and still Congress refuses to get it passed.  Arrington serves the big money interests in our district.  Our city, Big Spring, doesn’t even exist in his world.  He brags constantly about how much he does for our farmers and ranchers which is more BS.  Yeah, the big ones with lots of moola.

No one around here paying attention wants Arrington back in Congress.  Democrats aren’t even running a challenger for that race but there is one (out of three) GOP challenger we are praying beats Arrington March 5^th:  Vance W. Boyd who gets my vote.  I spoke with him at length at our last GOP meeting.  And, yes, one of his commercials focuses on the fact Arrington wants seniors to keep getting screwed by double taxing their social security benefits.

Ted Cruz is running for his third term even though he’s a liar and a cheat.  No question Cruz is intelligent but that does not excuse what he did in 2013.  Big hay was made in 2013 when Ted Cruz announced he was giving up his dual citizenship with Canada so he could run for the U.S. Senate.  Ted Cruz was born in Dec. 1970 in Canada.  Only problem was, Canada did NOT recognize dual citizenship until years later:  Citizenship Act [February 15, 1977] “The Citizenship Act, effective February 15, 1977, replaced the 1947 Act with a more equitable statute. For example, British subjects no longer received special treatment and dual citizenship became recognized.”  At the time their chief immigration and citizenship director publicly stated Cruz is a Canadian citizen, period.  Ignored by the GOP here in Texas.

A full and detailed analysis can be found here and here.  Since Cruz gave up his Canadian (not American) citizenship, he is a citizen of what country?  And just as the GOP did to cover constitutionally ineligible Hussein Obama for fear of being called a racist, they also covered for Cruz.

The same rotten incumbents with big money supporting them continue to win primaries and then on to the election in Nov.  Hold your nose and vote or a Democrat will win!  That’s exactly how the game within a game is played and the people getting played are you and me.  Of course, we must also take into account who counts the votes and how they’re counted because that’s how Trump was cheated out of a second term.  Despite all the bellowing from the MSM (Main Scream Media) conspiracy theorists, Trump legally won the 2020 election.

A few states are done with their primary and caucus but South Carolina is coming up and then “super Tuesday”.  How many voters have actually looked at their incumbents voting record?  I know, all of this takes time but Americans continue to vote back in the same crooks, liars and thieves destroying their lives because they don’t do any research. They watch a boob tube commercial about how great the incumbent is and hit the button.  Texas has 38 U.S. House incumbents all up for reelection.  I only recognize three names but it’s all I can do to keep up with what my state rep and senator (Kevin Sparks who should be reelected) and what the Outlaw Congress is up to.

Three judges on the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals (all Republicans) need to be defeated and I mean soundly defeated but most voters know nothing about them and will just hit the button for incumbent.  Texans:  Primary out Michelle Slaughter, Sharon Keller and Barbara Hervey.

Our March 5^th primary also has propositions on it that are very important.  How about your state ballot?  We’re fortunate to have an excellent resource:  Texas Scorecard.  Very important propositions for us in this primary.

Border Security
“Texas should create a Border Protection Unit, and deploy additional state law enforcement and military forces, to seal the border, to use physical force to prevent illegal entry and trafficking, and to deport illegal aliens to Mexico or to their nations of origin.”

Our governor, Greg Abbott, should have used the power and authority given to him by statute here in Texas to call up the State Militia (which is NOT the National Guard) to “repel an invasion” the day impostor president Biden was sworn into office.  No, instead he seems to want to keep relying other states to send their National Guard.  I’m done writing him on that issue.

Gold and Silver
“The Texas Legislature should establish authority within the Texas State Comptroller’s office to administer access to gold and silver through the Texas Bullion Depository for use as legal tender.”  Definitely a yes on that one.  Here’s the whole list, some of which I’ve covered column by column in the past which our legislature has done nothing but kick the can down the road.

Our county library puts out a ballot newspaper by the League of Women Voters who promote democracy which our Founding Fathers hated as a form of government.  This is an excellent analysis of the difference between a democracy and a republic which is our legal form of government:  Democracy or Republic,  Which is It?

Grassroots America We the People is an outstanding organization here in Texas.

Right now they’re warning Texans:  WARNING! “There is an active effort among ANTI-CONSERVATIVE groups (from the Left and the Right) to mobilize Democrats to vote in the Republican Primary!  Their only mission is to defeat conservative candidates.  For the March 5 Primary, we MUST turn out record numbers of Republicans who normally wait to vote in November against Democrats. 

“Your job is to call every person you know who is fixated on turning out in November “to keep Texas Red” and tell them that if we are to save Texas, we need the MOST conservative candidate winning on March 5th!   Tell them the Democrats are going to pollute the Republican Primary and we need Republicans to step up and vote!

“We need more conservatives voting in the March 2024 Primary if we are going to have the strongest closed border, limited gov’t, pro-family, pro-decency, anti-DC, anti-WOKE CONSERVATIVES on the ballot in November.”

Want to know more about the incumbent Texas House Republicans these candidates are challenging?  Click here.  When you do, you’ll go to their site and see all the hard work they’ve done, i.e.:

“There, you’ll see the Quick Summary, which tells you how they voted on impeachment of our Republican Attorney General. It shows you how much money they took from their top five donors in 2022. And it shows you more…

“For the 2022 election cycle, the average total amount given by the top five donors to a Texas House Republican was $267,625. But for Texas House Democrats, it was only $65,343 – which is four times less. Shouldn’t it be harder and more expensive in a red state like Texas to get Democrats elected than Republicans?

“We also show you how often they side with lobbying groups. Not all bills are bad; some agreement is understandable. But when a legislator says that they “stand up” to lobbyists yet agrees with those lobbyists 75% of the time or more, they’re not really standing up at all. When we look at over 80 lobbying groups, Republicans range from 39% agreement (Steve Toth) to nearly 86% agreement (Steve Allison). How does your legislator do?”

Good question.  Vet the incumbents and candidates in your primary and spread the word to family and friends.  If you have a CEO destroying your company/corporation (think Disney), do you keep hiring him/her or fire them?  If a football coach has a season record two years in a row of say 11-1 or 12-2 losses, do you keep the guy on as head coach?  So why continue hiring the same incumbents who have sold out YOU, your family, our state or if they’re in Congress?

I have been registered no party since 1996, but I belong to our county GOP Club.  I pay my $15.00 a year dues.  I keep everyone up to date on legislative issues, court cases.  We have invited guest speakers.  Grassroots are critical – just ask Democrats.  Besides serious business, you meet new people, maybe make new friends and maybe become a state delegate to your GOP convention.  Even if someone has mobility problems, there’s always a member who can drop by, pick up that person for the meeting and then take them home.  Never leave a patriot behind.

Of the People, by the People, for the People and we must never forget that.  Our destiny lies in our hands.  Our children, grandchildren and future generations depend on US.  Our fight is noble and we are going to win back our republic but it’s going to take informed voters showing up to vote and if there’s a problem with the count, the candidate files the paperwork to stop certification of the vote until a forensic analysis can be done.  There is a massive effort to return to paper ballots hand counted in front of the public but we’re not there yet.

Fl. Gov. Ron DeSantis doesn’t want clean elections in Florida and despite all the drooling Sean Hannity does about how great Florida handles their elections, he either is ignorant of the massive problem there or keeps his mouth shut on purpose.  From the great Kat Stansell who lives there and has been in the trenches a long time:

Florida, You Have A Big Problem, Feb. 17, 2024 – “We aleady know that massive irregularities in voter rolls have been proven and, thanks to ordinary citizens, are being rectified. A number of the Supervisors of Elections were not happy about this.

“Since seeking the truth is only against the law in totalitarian societies, Floridians have a problem. It seems like the bright red veneer of that once “good red state” is peeling away, and what’s underneath is looking less like America and more like a totalitarian society.”

Why Tolerate Probable Election Fraud? – VERY important read by Kat.  Do read it.

On May 15, 2008, I stood at the homestead of Nathan Hale outside of Mansfield, Connecticut.  It was an emotional visit.  Young Master Hale said as the British were about to hang him:  “I only regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.”  He was 21 years old.  The men who fought on the battlefield in the Revolutionary War – dead of winter, snow on the ground, some had shoes, some wore rags because they had no shoes.  Food was what they could kill along the way or eggs given by patriots in the cover of night so they wouldn’t be hanged by the British.

They sure as hell weren’t making excuses not to fight for our new country nor were they “too busy”.  The freedoms and liberties you and I and our children and grandchildren enjoy cost rivers of blood running on the battlefield.  Young kids like Nathan Nale.  Are we any less in courage?  Freedom comes at a high price and requires eternal vigilance and attention.

As I’ve written before, there are really hard-working grassroots organizations in every state of the Union.  It’s not difficult to find them.  Either search on line or contact your local GOP County chairman/woman.  Please do get out and vote in the primaries and throw out the rotten and corrupt or vote in Nov. holding your nose and a R.I.P. sign for America.

February 19, 2024

Probably not, but the narrative wars have likely engendered a period of unrest and decline no matter what happens. There remains hope.

[Author’s note: a somewhat different version of this article is available on my Substack, Navigating the New Normal. The updates are due to this being a developing story.]

Last Thursday (Feb. 8), the U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments on whether or not Donald Trump should remain on GOP ballots. The allegation, as everybody knows, is that on January 6, 2021, speaking to a throng of supporters from the Ellipse, he fomented an insurrection in the disqualifying sense of the 14^th Amendment, Section 3, of the Constitution.

The Court may have decided this case before this has time to go up. I’ve gone ahead with it anyway, because even if (as most of us expect) the Court reverses the Colorado and Maine decisions, we’re nowhere near out of the woods.

While the Supremes seemed more interested in such technical-legalistic matters as whether officer of the United States applies to the presidency, the real question going forward (see here and here) is whether what happened on January 6, 2021 constitutes an insurrection, since Trump told people to march to the Capitol “peacefully and patriotically….” He never suggested anyone go inside the Capitol (it was Ray Epps, possibly among others, who did that!).

This case is unprecedented. We’ve never seen a clash of narratives like this. Those on opposite sides literally do not see the world the same way. They aren’t making the same assumptions about what kind of political system we’re living under. Small wonder some are ready to divide the country — peacefully, if possible; forcibly if necessary. This is where the narrative wars have brought us.

We don’t agree on what really happened that day, six days into 2021. An insurrection, as I explained citing references, is an organized effort to violently overthrow a government. Few who came onto Capitol grounds that day were violent, although there were hotheads on the front lines who broke through barricades, pushed Capitol police to the ground, and broke windows. This was a very small minority of the allegedly 2,000 or so people who entered the Capitol peacefully, some doing no more than walking around for a few minutes and then leaving.

There was no organized effort to overthrow the U.S. government.

So what were they doing? Well over 10,000 people were protesting in Washington, D.C. that day. They had doubts that Joe Biden was elected legitimately. Every effort to pursue the matter through the courts had been rebuffed. Judges did not look at any evidence (e.g., affidavits alleging wrongdoing in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia). They said either, “there’s no evidence” or they used a legal ploy of “no standing to sue.” The Supreme Court refused to hear appeals.

It became as if the use of phrases like conspiracy theorist and election denialism were sufficient to quell the sense of something amiss.

To this day, tens of millions of Americans think Election 2020 was stolen, even if they don’t agree on the circumstances or how the steal was accomplished.

Their reasoning: a man, arguably showing signs of dementia and staying mostly out of public view, trouncing a man able to fill arenas during a pandemic by 7 million popular votes, makes no sense whatsoever.

They now fear that something similar could happen again, in 2024, and in broad daylight!

The Jan-6ers believed they were trying to save democracy. Today we should fear destruction of real democracy, which reflects the will of the people (even those you disagree with), by those gaslighting us with phrases like saving our democracy!

What will happen this November? I honestly don’t know. But there is no reason to think it’s going to be pretty, with an outcome accepted automatically by both sides.

What then?

Civil War? Or massive civil unrest?

I do not think anything that happens will rise to the level of civil war.

Civil wars happen when discourse over fundamental disputes between two factions, both having sufficient resources to exact their wills on the body politic, breaks down. Laws and policy decisions are then disregarded as both sides battle openly and violently for control over dominant institutions, especially mass media.

Is this what we’re looking at? Not quite.

One problem is with both sides having the resources to exact their wills. I do not think Trump’s side has those resources, no matter how much of his own money Trump still has to spend. With efforts underway to cripple him financially, it’s unclear how much he will have when the dirt settles.

The point of the 91 felony lawfare allegations as well as the civil suits has been to render him impotent, and imprisoned, if that’s what it takes to stop him.

To the extent that groups and organizations backing Trump’s side in the narrative wars have some resources and would be able to mount significant national-scale protests if Trump were refused a spot on national ballots, I am unsure how many have the will.

Look at what’s been done to over a thousand Jan-6ers. Most of these people will never get their lives back. Businesses have been destroyed; homes are gone. Some will be unable to find decent work. They have been demonized in corporate media as “Capitol rioters” and “insurrectionists.” This label may well follow them the rest of their lives.

Is this or is this not a major disincentive to mount mass protests, no matter the provocation?

Moreover, in large crowds many of whose members don’t know all others personally and with no way to vet them, infiltration by the FBI or leftist agent provocateurs is a separate risk. Fear of this happening was probably a factor in undermining the Take Our Border Back Convoy which convened at Eagle Pass, Texas, on Feb. 3: instead of 700,000 attendees, around 7,000 showed up, disappointing those who see securing the border with Mexico as a major issue this year.

A recent discussion with a number of legal scholars, political analysts, and national security experts did not feature a single person who predicts a civil war. Some do, however, predict the sort of scattered disruptions that signify civil unrest. I think we will see unrest whatever the Supreme Court decides, in this or in upcoming cases involving Trump.

What I can’t predict is how much, how long it will last, or what the long term repercussions will be.

Most observers think the Court will set Colorado and Maine aside, ensuring that their ruling applies to all 50 states. According to the 14^th Amendment only Congress can invoke the insurrection clause by passing a law, and this isn’t going to happen. This might invite protests from the other side, possibly worse than overturning of Roe v Wade did, because of how the Establishment has presented this situation to the public. Again: “democracy is on the ballot,” Biden has put it. “Democracy itself” is at stake, wax the hysterics (as if the U.S. is really a democracy, which it hasn’t been for a very long time — but never mind that now).

This is how narrative war works.

Assuming Trump is still on ballots as you read this, the globalist-leftist alliance will already be maneuvering full throttle to block a Trump 2.0 administration.

We might see cyberattacks or other false flags to be blamed on Trump supporters. We might even see The Great Taking (see below). Something as sudden as it would be drastic could happen any time between now and November.

I’m not making a prediction here. That would be hazardous. But the fear of Trump 2.0 is palpable.

Bottom line, though: no civil war.

Especially with an Establishment able to command technologies (use of smartphone records, facial recognition, generative AI, etc.) that would make previous tyrants gasp. Plus, I doubt that Homeland Security’s hollow-point bullets have gone anywhere. I’ve seen nothing to suggest that the militarized power centers in the Asylum on the Potomac, if militarized, couldn’t put down any direct domestic challenge to their power with relative ease.

This Is What Civilizational Decline Looks Like.

If we look at the larger sweep of human history, one thing becomes clear: even relatively free societies are very rare. Empires, tyrannies, dictatorships of various sorts, are the norm. In most places and at most times, those in power have done pretty much as they pleased. So is tribalism a norm, almost one of our default settings: “us” versus “them.”

Briefly, Periclean Athens moved towards freedom, but compromised it with slavery, allowed what freedom they had to weaken them in other ways (as Plato observed), the result being the loss of the war with authoritarian Sparta and long-term decline.

The Christian worldview began to create a societal ambience in which there were moral checks on human authority. The powerful couldn’t do as they pleased because they answered to God for their actions. Eventually this ended the idea of “the divine right of kings.” The Christian conviction was that this was a world of physical and moral order. On this foundation rose Western civilization, surely the greatest civilization in human history, via science, technique, property rights, markets, and limits on state power.

By the mid twentieth century we were starting to dismantle the tribal distinctions of the past, via Martin Luther King Jr.’s promotion of judging people “not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

Those obsessed with the need to control others, and as much of the world as possible, rebelled against the Christian worldview. They’d removed God from the world picture and had learned to use societal and technological systems others had created against them. The scientific-industrial-educational mainstream became de facto materialist. I say de facto because it is not as if many of their managerial disciples reflected on what they were doing. A few did.

The result has been a slow and painful slide backwards towards what the West had partly escaped: tribalism, naked grabs for power, re-enslavement by economic and technical means, and the obliteration of truth in favor of propaganda, gaslighting, and open and unabashed lying.

The Christian conviction of checks on secular power is gone. The sciences, which honestly sought order and explanation, are now The Science, a form of intellectual authoritarianism funded by corporations and government. Technique no longer solves problems for the whole of the body politic but designs algorithms to bring the masses into passivity and control, incentivizing the masses to ensnare themselves (think: nearly all social media).

Property rights no longer exist as such; all are subject to taxation, and even the conditional ownership implied by deeds-plus-property-taxes is being replaced by rent of various sorts, as home ownership becomes harder and harder to afford.

Markets are not free but controlled, because corporations employ hidden incentives or “nudges” of various sorts; the above-mentioned algorithms Big Tech has perfected “know” more about you than you know about yourself and have honed the science of getting you to consume.

Finally, to speak of morality in the halls of Congress is more likely to prompt gales of laughter than serious reflection on where the country is going.

Legal eagles invoke the Constitution which it serves their agendas, as with those using the 14^th Amendment to try to get Trump off ballots. Otherwise, it’s dead.

Is sending money to foreign government fighting wars halfway around the world authorized anywhere in the Constitution? Especially when our own southern border is so porous that thousands of people including possibly dangerous individuals can cross it illegally every month?

Language itself has been perverted. Democracy clearly no longer means government by and for We the People. It is code for one species of elite domination, in which the locus of power isn’t a single figure, such as a Xi or a Putin, but systemic and driven by money. Trump was only able to mount a serious candidacy back in 2015-16 because he could finance his own campaign. Had he lacked those resources, he wouldn’t have registered. Money isn’t everything, of course. It is necessary but not sufficient. If you could literally buy your way into the presidency, Ross Perot and Steve Forbes would have had viable shots back in their day.

Trump had (still has) a great deal of personal charisma, a solid ability to command mass media even if its owners hate his guts, and things to say that resonate with an increasingly disillusioned Republican audience.

He was an existential threat to those who think in terms of global power (globalists) and cultural dismemberment (the brand of hard-leftist that’s obsessed with transgenderism). This is the case even if he has no systematic philosophy of his own. He’s a disruptor by nature. Disruption works, especially when institutions are losing their sense of legitimacy. This loss of legitimacy is characteristic of long-term decline. Many of those behind Trump have no trouble dynamiting (figuratively speaking, of course) something that ceased to work for them long ago.

Trump 2.0 would be an even bigger existential threat to global power and leftist dismemberment because there’s no doubt he’s far more knowledgeable about how to work governing systems now than he was in 2017.

Hence the constant barrage of fear porn from every corporate media outlet, every major magazine, all the dominant political voices in unison.

I’ve no idea how likely a Trump 2.0 administration is. As I’ve said, globalist-leftist power and propaganda will do everything they can to keep it from happening.

What we can be sure of is that should Trump be reelected, it wouldn’t guarantee anything. Anyone who thinks this will quell globalist-financed leftist street protests, probably violent, even if Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, is kidding himself.

The next year, 2025, could turn out to be more volatile and violent than anything 2024 served up.

The next administration will face combined challenges: rising homelessness, the debt explosion, the southern border, fentanyl, continued demands by foreign leaders with an entitlement mindset like Zelenskyy, continuing unrest in the Middle East, the possibility of China encircling Taiwan, and more.

I have no trouble envisioning complete paralysis.

The U.S. rose empowered by the magnificent thoughts of the James Madisons and George Washingtons and Thomas Jeffersons of the day. There are no thinkers of that caliber anywhere to be found in our present-day political or moneyed classes. Nor is the view that directed hard work is what builds and sustains civilizations the prevailing one, and even if it were, today’s institutions are designed to reward political connections and politically correct ideology far more than hard work. The latter is a threat to those who have learned how to exploit and profit from the present system.

This is what civilizational decline looks like.

What Happens Next?

I don’t like making predictions. So, I just draw scenarios, and I’ve never had so many in all my pockets at one time. I’ve even heard serious suggestions that there might not even be an election this November.

What do we see? Two mighty forces on collision course!

Those tendencies conveniently labeled “populism”: ordinary people rising up against powerful elites everywhere: in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., France, The Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, Israel, and elsewhere. In a few countries (India, Hungary, Italy), counter-elites have won public office. Counter-elite Jair Bolsonaro was in control in Brazil but tossed by corrupt leftists who are trying to imprison him. A counter-elite named José Antonio Kast, a conservative, could become president of Chile if he decides to run in Chile’s next election (2026). Chile’s presently-dominant leftists are also struggling with inflation and dysfunction.

You know the counter-elites and their supporters because globalist-controlled corporate media demonizes them as extremists, conspiracists, white supremacists, protofascists, spreaders of misinformation, etc., etc.

Globalists (WEF/Davos, the UN/WHO axis, big foundations / funding networks such as Soros’s and Gates’s, others) doubtless fear the unraveling of everything they’ve spent lifetimes working towards. If they lose, they could end up hanging from lampposts! They damned well know it!

It is important not to underestimate what these psychopaths might be capable of! Some do that. (Example here.)

I’m thinking again of The Great Taking. Download the book for free here; David Rogers Webb discusses the book at length here; read my commentary here; lengthy interview with Webb here; another very worthwhile discussion here. We’re hearing warnings of possible cyberattacks, conceivably at the hands of some of those who entered the U.S. illegally which include Chinese nationals as well as Hezbollah sleeper cells awaiting activization on command from the disrupted Middle East.

A single, well-planned and well-placed cyberattack could cripple American infrastructure, take down part or all of the Internet for a time, and bring the global financial system to its knees.

Forget bitcoins and other crypto. Your wallets will be useless pieces of paper.

CBDCs would be introduced as the “fix.” If covid-19 was the biggest power grab we’d ever seen, CBDCs would quickly surpass that.

You’d be allowed back on a vastly more controlled Internet with government-issued ID (e.g., a passport). No more anonymity.

CBDCs (Central Bank Digital Currencies) would then be downloadable via an app in your phone and could be programmed to work only during a specific time duration (to ensure that you consume), to purchase certain goods or services but not others (to ensure that you consume what those in power want you to consume), and to function only within a given radius (in case the programmers have been told by their masters to restrict peasant movement, as in the “sustainable cities” WEF globalists envision).

Cash would, of course, disappear as a casualty of the financial calamity. Cash can’t be tracked or traced or monitored.

Few would be in a position to resist — presumably mass starvation is not an option! Those stuck in big cities would find themselves in a dystopia that would make present-day China look like a paradise by comparison.

Dissent? Your CBDC would be turned off, so that you can’t buy food.

Hope.

There remains hope, of course, and it is important not to lose sight of this.

We also learn from history that events move in long cycles. Civilizations rise, then they decline and fall. Most fall from within. Discussions of how cycles work are readily available (start here). There are conditions on a society’s existence, and if those conditions cease, it finds itself living on borrowed time.

Economies based exclusively on debt eventually collapse. The track record is 100 percent.

“Prophets” try to point this out and draw attention to the problems. Initially they are dismissed as “doomers-gloomers” and denounced in controlled media. The masses are either too insouciant to listen or just too busy trying to survive.

But “prophets” always find a following that has figured out the truth. Some refer to this following as a remnant (Isaiah 1:9). This remnant will build up a new society, restoring values and practices that work.

We are clearly in a decline phase. Our “prophets” are increasingly listened to. There are remnant communities already out there, organizing a “parallel economy” mostly outside the grid. Others are in the planning stages.

Such groups, like the Amish, would be far less affected by a Great Taking.

The future, I submit, lies with those who can take charge of their own educations and lives, learn to sustain themselves growing their own food so that they don’t need CBDCs or even cash for purchases, developing barter systems where necessary.

They will be closer to the natural order and therefore closer to God, the Creator and Author of nature and therefore of real sustainability before globalists hijacked that term and used it for their own insidious purposes.

One thing is for sure: building communities outside the power systems and sustaining them while riding out whatever occurs will take resilience. How many of us are working on that?

February 18, 2024

Each generation is labeled according to what they allowed to happen in their culture and how they dealt with that culture.  Each generation has to make a choice.  They must realize that freedom can be lost and history shows it is very difficult to get back!!! The nation of Germany is remembered in history for causing two world wars.  France is remembered for the bloodiest revolution in history.  In America, the civil war is remembered as a bloody war with Americans fighting against Americans.  The generations in America that are remembered for their sacrifice and bravery are those during World War I and II.

What will history record about our generation as we have sat by and allowed evil to capture our nation.  Will we be remembered for our sexual revolution, that government is our provider and not God, that a man can have a baby, that some boys are girls and some girls are boys, that marriage is not only between a man and a woman but could be between two men and two women, or perhaps this generation will be remembered as allowing the Communists/Marxists/Socialists/Globalists to take away our freedoms and banish Christianity from the public square in America?  Surely the question will be asked of this generation in America, “Where were the Pastors and Christians in all this?”

America is not the first nation to have lost their bearings and forsaken God.   We are not the first generation that has practiced religion and a form of godliness, failed to resist the evil before us, and failed to provide a moral compass to men and women in the sexual revolution, transgender revolution, marriage revolution, destruction of the family structure revolution and homosexual revolution.

It should be noted that our generation has had more light, more revelations from God, and more churches that any generation in history.  Pastors and Christians in America will have a lot to answer for when we stand before the LORD Jesus Christ to give an answer to what we did with what we were given!!!

But praise God, our God is a God of restoration.  We can repent, change our wicked ways and return to Him and God will restore us.  We can recover from our blatant disobedience of the Word of God but only if we commit from the heart to follow Him and His Ways.  Our walk and our fruit will tell if we changed our ways in our heart!!!  Our actions will determine what God will do.

In Romans 1:18-23, Paul is not writing to the pagans in Rome but Christians who are in Rome and neither is he specifically addressing homosexuality.  “For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God, or give thanks; but they became futile in their speculations and their foolish heart was darkened.  Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man.”  Will that verse in Romans be this generation of Christian’s epitaph in history?

The Christians in America have allowed so much to be taken away from us by Satan.  We have refused to resist the evil overtaking our nation and we have provided no moral compass for the many confused people in our nation.  We have not extended the Kingdom of God and made disciples in America or the nations.  There is always hope with God but that hope is being lost because Christians in this nation will not commit to the LORDSHIP of the LORD Jesus Christ.

Christians in this nation have been lied to for years by pastors that attending church confirms our faithfulness and obedience to God.  We can neglect the Word of God, make no commitment, be disobedient, have no change in our lives with no fruit but bless God if we attend church, we are told by our pastors we will go to heaven.  That is the lie of the ages; that is not what the Bible says, and American denominations and our mega-churches have bought into it, hook, line and sinker.

Following Christ is all about obedience, submission, commitment, faithfulness, and allegiance and Jesus spoke this to us throughout His Word.   Matthew 7:24-27 is just one example.  He said if you hear the Word and act upon it, you build your house on the rock and when the storms of life come, your house will stand.  But if you hear the Word and do not act upon it, you build your house on the sand and when the storms come, your house will fall.  HATH GOD REALLY SAID?!!!

If history were written of this generation of Christians in America today, history would not be kind to us but rather cruel.  We must repent of our wicked ways and change our religious ways to His Way.  Our attitude about obedience to the Word and the LORD Jesus is serious business and our obedience is appalling!!  American Christians think they have the option they can obey God when they feel like it.  That is a path straight to hell!!!  Democrats have lies but so does the American Church Religious System!!!

One day Jesus pronounced a railing judgment against Capernaum!!  Jesus did many miracles in Capernaum and it was in Capernaum where He gave much of His revelation to the people.  But they would only recognize Jesus as the Son of Man, as Mary’s boy and a carpenter rather than acknowledging Him as the Son of God.  So, Jesus pronounced a railing judgment on the people of Capernaum and told them Sodom would fare better at the judgment than they.

If we in America don’t repent of our wicked ways, forsake our sectarian divisions, come together under the banner of Jesus Christ, organize, and get our spiritual act together to obey God by resisting this evil and demonic strongholds overtaking our nation then based on the criteria Jesus used against Capernaum, Sodom will fare better at the judgment than once righteous America!!!

In America, we have received everything God has to offer – more freedom, the land of plenty, more revelation, more blessings, more wealth and we show no respect or gratitude to the LORD Jesus Christ.  Obedience to our LORD and King proves our respect and gratitude for our LORD of Lord and KING of Kings and the American Christian has been found wanting.  Jesus said of the generation He was born into was wicked and proof abounds that because of our disobedience, our lack of respect, and our ingratitude to the wonderful things God has given to us, this generation of Christians in America is wicked also.

At this hour God is calling all Christians to repent, return to Him and to stand in all areas of life for the principles of Christianity in our nation and if we refuse, Biblical history shows that nations that disobey God, disrespect God, and are ungrateful for their blessings of God will have a rude awakening coming.  To him who has been given much, much the more is required.

We show no respect for the freedoms given to us by God because at this very hour, Christians have allowed man to take our freedoms away, the Word of God has been banished from our culture, we present no moral compass to our nation, and we refuse to resist evil, while evil has invaded our land.   We stand by and do nothing while evil men have demonized Christians as extremists, racists, and bigots for holding on to beliefs Americans have held for generations.  How much longer will we disrespect what God has given us?

And we do nothing but take it and tolerate it day after day and year after year and we refuse to stand against this evil as the Word of God commands.  We ignore and disobey the instructions given to us in the Word of God in 2 Corinthians 10:3-:5, “For though we walk in the flesh we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses.   We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.”

We have no fear of God in America among those who name the Name of Christ.  We ignore and pay no attention to what the LORD Jesus said to us in the Scriptures:   In Luke 10, Jesus is sending out seventy of His disciples.  He gave them power over Satan and demons.  They came back rejoicing over “the demons are subject to us.”   Can we just receive that we as disciples in America have that same power over Satan and his demons?  God will not hold us guiltless if we fail to resist the evil overtaking our nation.

I ask you Christian America – how much longer do you think God will allow us to thumb our noses at Him?  How much longer will He let us refuse to blush at the most violent sins this nation has ever seen?  How much longer will He put up with all the wickedness in America before He says, “Enough!”

 Right now our nation is like the nation of Israel as described by Jeremiah: “….their houses (are) full of deceit; therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.  They are waxen fat, they shine…Shall I not visit for these things? Saith the Lord; shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?” (Jeremiah 5:27-29)   God Himself is saying, “How can I not bring judgment upon such flaunted sin and compromise?”

You might be tempted to say, “It’s plain to see why God sent His judgment on Israel but America is different!”   You may think, “God has to spare us.  After all, He’s called us to evangelize the world.”  But   most of our American church’s mission programs are dying.    God told us in His Word to bring heaven to earth by “doing the will of God on earth as it is done in heaven.”    He said for us to have dominion, and to make disciples.  He gave us the power to do all this but since the 80’s, the Marxists have changed our nation from a Christian World View to a Marxists Socialist World View.

They did this by making more disciples of Marxism than we have of Jesus Christ.  We allowed them to change our thinking in this nation to accept the gross sins of this world system.  We are a captured nation, we are ruled by Satan and not by God, and we have become a dwelling place for demons and the gods of Babylon and Egypt are now bringing their high places into America and shoving gross sin in our face from every place in America.

We better get some fear of God in us and in a hurry and get our spiritual act together and quickly praying that God does not come to America on some terrible night as a Thief in the Night!!!!!  Look at what this generation of Christians in America has done with what God has given us?   We in America have no choices left for we know what God’s pattern of judgment is on blatant disobedience!!!  We either repent, forsake our religious ways, and turn to the Ways of Jesus Christ very quickly now or we will face more of the terrible judgments of God!!!  I give you this warning because I love you and I want to see this nation have victory over Satan and save this nation and the other nations from the tyranny, bondage, and destruction in order that our LORD will be glorified!!!  God bless, I remain His warrior and watchman, Glynn Adams

[DISCLAIMER: The opinion in this article is the sole opinion of the author and is not necessarily the opinion of NewsWithViews.com, it’s employees, representatives, or other contributing writers.]

Professor Renato Cristin (University of Trieste, Italy) and I are among the signatories of the Appeal for Nuremberg Trials for Communism. We agree that Vladimir Putin should be put on trial for communist crimes against humanity. We also agree, as he puts it, that “The Carlson-Putin skit is a political and cultural indecency, which should be classified as vaudeville.”

With his softball interview of the Russian dictator, Tucker Carlson has made himself into a laughing stock, a pathetic figure that seems to be angling for status in the Walter Duranty school of journalism.

It is significant that Tucker also showed up at a Russian grocery store, holding a loaf of bread, since Duranty is the New York Times journalist who claimed that the Stalin-induced Great Famine in Ukraine which killed seven to ten million never occurred.

We can laugh at Tucker’s antics but he continues to be a favorite of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), which is meeting at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Maryland, outside of D.C., from February 21st – February 24^th. I attended and spoke at the CPAC conferences, especially when Ronald Reagan was president and was featured.

These days, I cover the CPAC conferences in order to understand where “conservatism” has gone wrong.

To understand this dangerous trend, I return to Professor Cristin’s critique of Tucker’s Putin interview. The Carlson-Putin show, he argues, was “a perfect psyop, a disinformation and psychological distortion operation, in the style of the old KGB and international communism.”

In 2014, we detected the start of the Russian infiltration of the conservative movement, as various conservative and “pro-family” leaders joined a Russian operative at a National Press Club conference in Washington, D.C. to proclaim Vladimir Putin the Christian savior of the world. Eventually, we published a major report on “Russian Influence in the Conservative Movement.”

Putin so liked the Tucker interview that he posted it in English on his own web site, but he later complained about the lack of tough questions, saying Tucker “chose a different tactic.”

That “tactic” was playing the role of a modern-day Walter Duranty, who started his career, according to S.J. Taylor’s book, Stalin’s Apologist, by participating with Satanist Aleister Crowley in drug-taking homosexual Satanic orgies.

As Tucker looks like a complete fool, by playing into Putin’s hands, we must wonder how this one-time “conservative” journalist turned out this way. He is a symbol of a much bigger problem.

Before he was fired by Fox, he had entered the Twilight Zone of New Age theories and beliefs, even doing shows about “cattle mutilations” and cows being sucked into flying saucers.

Whatever the explanation for his bizarre turn, his coverage of Russia has failed to convey to his audience that Putin is a former Soviet KGB colonel and that his regime is based on the remnants of the old Soviet Union, including its military and intelligence establishment.

At one time, I thought Tucker was the new voice of the forgotten American, noting that he was urging Republicans to return to the themes that got Trump elected. His 2018 book, Ship of Fools, was about how the failures of the political establishment led to the election of Trump.

But when he was on Fox, he became a mouthpiece for Glenn Greenwald, a former gay porn lawyer and libertarian who had attended various socialist conferences and then became a mouthpiece for former NSA/CIA operative Edward Snowden.

Snowden defected through Chinese Hong Kong before escaping to Russia, where he became a Russian citizen.

Perhaps Snowden has room at home for Tucker.

It was almost a year ago that I wrote about Tucker’s pro-Russian tendencies, noting he went over the edge with his promotion of a communist rally against Ukraine in Washington, D.C. that featured another person. Tara Reade, who has since fled to Russia. At the time, he had openly complained about alleged NSA surveillance of his personal communications. We now know he was using Russian contacts to arrange his recent Putin interview.

Tucker has become an unofficial foreign agent for Russia and is not ashamed of doing Putin’s bidding, even while the Russian dictator was apparently planning the murder of one of his chief critics, Alexei Navalny.

But Biden’s anti-Putin posturing is just as offensive.

On Friday, Biden exploited the murder of Navalny to attack President Trump and Republicans in Congress for the failure of his own “strategy.” He said Trump had encouraged a Russian invasion of NATO when the Russian invasions of Ukraine occurred first under President Barack Hussein Obama and then under President Biden.

Going further back in time, it was President Bill Clinton who arranged the Budapest Memorandum with Russia, disarming Ukraine of its nuclear weapons and leaving it open to the subsequent Russian invasions. Trump bears no blame for any of this.

Putin prefers Biden as president over Trump and it’s easy to see why.

February 18, 2024

Harriet Elisabeth Beecher (June 14, 1811 – July 1, 1896) was born in Litchfield, Connecticut, the sixth of 11 children of a Presbyterian minister and a mother whose grandfather was General Andrew Ward, who served under General George Washington in the Revolutionary War. Unusual for women at the time, she received a traditional academic education from the Hartford Female Seminary, focusing on classical antiquity studies, languages, and mathematics.

In 1832, Beecher moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, to join her father, who had become the president of Lane Theological Seminary. It was here that she met Calvin Ellis Stowe, who was a professor of Biblical Literature at the seminary. The two married on January 6, 1836.

Living near the Ohio River across from Kentucky, a state where slavery was legal, Beecher, now Stowe, was exposed to the nature of slavery and its negative ramifications on Black Americans and the rest of society.

Stowe’s faith in Jesus Christ, her increasing understanding of the evils of slavery from the testimony of escaped slaves, and the compelling arguments of abolitionist apologists strongly influenced her to become a passionate abolitionist and supporter of the Underground Railroad, which helped many fugitives from slavery escape to freedom in Canada.

She was the author of more than 30 books covering a wide range of interests, including textbooks for children, books providing advice for homemaking, raising children, biographies, and religious studies. Though capable of writing scholarly works, Stowe chose to write in an informal way to reach common, everyday people and encourage them to address controversial moral issues of the day. Her mathematical training helped her see things in a logical fashion and describe them as they are in truth. Stowe believed God’s purpose for her life was to write and that her words and the actions coming from them could make a positive difference in the world and be an extension of God’s grace.

Harriet Beecher Stowe

Her best-known work was Uncle Tom’s Cabin (1852), a novel depicting the horrible realities of slavery through the central character Uncle Tom, a Black slave who endured great suffering ending in a terrible death but refused to abandon his faith in Christ, do violence to other slaves, or betray those who escaped. Uncle Tom showed that Christian love, forgiveness, and redemption could overcome slavery.

Uncle Tom’s Cabin portrayed the ugly truth of slavery instead of softening or hiding it behind euphemisms such as “southern paternalism” or “peculiar institution.” It became a bestseller and helped to change attitudes, especially in the northern states, toward Black Americans and slavery. While some historians believe that this book helped pave the way for the Civil War, it certainly strengthened the abolitionist cause, which assisted in ending chattel slavery in America.

Not mincing words when addressing moral issues of the day helped to end a great sin in the society in which Stowe lived. This kind of forthrightness is being used by some in efforts to end another great evil in society today.

Terrisa Bukovinac is the founder and former executive director of Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU), an organization involved with peacefully protesting abortion facilities, compassionately reaching out to the women going to them, educating the public about the exploitative influence of the abortion industry, and connecting abortion-vulnerable women with life-saving resources.

In a 2022 interview with Fox News Digital, Bukovinac said, “Abortion is murder, and we need to act like it.” Recalling a protest at an abortion facility in Alexandria, Virginia, she stated that the focus of her work was to see abortion come to an end nationwide. Though she and some of her colleagues were arrested, their efforts led to five women not going through with an abortion, thus saving the lives of five babies.

Knowing that federal political campaign advertisements could not be censored, Bukovinac decided to run for president as a Democrat in 2024 to expose the reality of abortion, show its victims, and give them a voice. Her commercials showed graphic images of aborted babies with the purpose of moving the American people to end this evil practice.

Though a self-professed atheist holding to a Marxist political philosophy, Bukovinac at least recognized the humanity of children in the womb and wanted to do everything she could to be an advocate for those unable to speak for themselves, going beyond what many pro-life conservative organizations and politicians have done. She rejected euphemisms such as “pro-choice,” “health care,” or “reproductive rights” to show the horrible reality of abortion, the gruesome ending of a human life at its weakest and most vulnerable stage.

“Pikuach Nefesh” is Hebrew for “save a life.” It is also the name of one of the ministries of Congregation Shema Yisrael, a Messianic Jewish congregation in southeast Michigan. Its purpose is to deter abortion and proclaim the goodness of life and the evil of abortion. Because of their faith in Jesus Christ and the truth that human beings are made in the image of God and therefore precious, participants in this ministry show up on the sidewalk at a local abortion facility every month to share the gospel message and pray for the mothers, fathers, babies, and workers in the facility.

Like Stowe and Bukovinac, Pikuach Nefesh does not proclaim its message with euphemisms but with unvarnished truth. They display messages exhorting mothers to let their precious babies live and saying that there are free life-saving resources available to them. They also show graphic images of the aftermath of babies killed through abortion to show the horrific reality and give mothers going inside the facility pause to consider what they are about to do to their child. On one occasion, their efforts led to six women choosing life for their babies.

Reforming societal wrongs requires calling things as they are rather than sugarcoating the painful truth. This is especially true when it comes to recognizing the reality of one’s position before God, whom even self-professed atheists know exists (Romans 1:18-32).

While working to set captives free, saving the lives of children in the womb, and doing other good works are commendable, they are not good enough because all of us have sinned and fallen short of God’s perfect righteous standards (Romans 3:19-26; James 2:10).

But God has provided salvation from the eternal consequences of our sins through His Son Jesus Christ, who lived the perfect life we could not, died the death we deserved, was buried, and rose again from the dead on the third day.

Repent and put your full faith in Jesus Christ alone, for He is your only hope of being in good standing before God, whom we all will meet someday (Hebrews 9:27-28).

February 17, 2024

One is easily overwhelmed by the fatuity and even imbecility of the politically motivated drivel which has inundated, and continues to flood, the Internet concerning Mr. Trump’s supposed disqualification for the office of President of the United States under the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States because of his alleged participation in the so-called “January Sixth Insurrection”. One wonders whether any of the self-satisfied gurus, talking-heads, and other pundits breathlessly pontificating on this subject have ever actually read, let alone carefully studied, the entire Constitution of the United States, or pondered how it must be construed and applied according to the tenets of constitutional interpretation with respect to this matter in particular. For, when all of that effort is expended, it becomes beyond dispute that, even if the “January Sixth Insurrection” were an “insurrection” (an extremely doubtful assumption at best), at this point in time Mr. Trump could not possibly, let alone even arguably, be disqualified for the office of President. And, one may confidently predict, the Supreme Court will soon so hold. Actually, the explanation for that expectation is easy to understand.

In pertinent part, the relevant portions of the Fourteenth Amendment read as follows:

“Section 3. No person shall * * * hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, * * * who, having previously taken an oath * * * as an officer of the United States * * * to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection * * * against the same * * * . But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”

“Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.”

I. First, in fairness to Mr. Trump’s opponents, it would be well to dispose of some really ridiculous contentions which a few of his more deluded supporters have advanced: namely, (i) that a President is not “an officer of the United States”; and (ii) that as President Mr. Trump never took “an oath as an officer” — so that even if he had actually “engaged in insurrection” during his first term in the Presidency he could not be disqualified from seeking election to, and serving in, a second term.

1. The Constitution — each of the provisions of which must be construed consistently in light of and in consonance with all of the others — itself eliminates any possible doubt that the Presidency is an “office” and the President is “an officer of the United States”:

a. Compare Article I, Section 7, Clause 3 (“Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States”) with Article II, Section 4 (“The President * * * of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment”).

b. Consider Article II, Section 1, Clause 1 (“The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years”).

c. Consider Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 (“No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years”).

d. Consider Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 (“In Case of the Removal of the President from Office, or Inability to discharge the Powers and Duties of said Office, the Same shall devolve in the Vice President”). And

e. Consider Article II, Section 1, Clause 7 (“Before he enter into the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation: — ‘I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States”).

When the Constitution, including all of the foregoing provisions, was ratified in 1788, “office” meant “a public employment”, and “officer” meant “a man in office”. Noah Webster, A Compendious Dictionary of the English Language (1806), at 207. So “office” and “officer” were inextricably linked. No basis exists for any contention that the Fourteenth Amendment in 1868 radically transmogrified the English language so as to preclude (or even raise any doubt as to) the conclusion drawn from the original Constitution that an individual who holds an “Office” is an “Officer”, by definition. Moreover, Section 1 of Amendment XXV, ratified in 1967, also refers to the Presidency as an “office” (“In the case of the removal of the President from office”), proving that between 1788 and 1967 (at least) no one ever imagined that the Presidency might be something other than an “office”, and therefore the President someone other than the unique “officer” in that “office”.

2. It has also been contended that, the niceties of the English language aside, several provisions of the original Constitution do, in fact, indicate that the President, although incumbent in an “Office”, is nonetheless not an “Officer”. Namely,

a. Under Article II, Section 2, Clause 2, “by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, [the President] shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law”. Apparently, the argument here is that, if the President “shall appoint * * * all other Officers”, he himself cannot be an “Officer” or he would have the self-contradictory power to appoint himself. This is an especially stupendous piece of self-evident stupidity, because the President need not and cannot appoint himself pursuant to the authority granted in Section 2 of Article II, in as much as his “Appointment[ ] * * * herein” (that is, within the Constitution) has “otherwise [been] provided for, and * * * established by Law” in Section 1 of that Article (which, of course, precedes Section 2).

b. Under Article II, Section 3, the President “shall Commission all the Officers of the United States”. Here, too, the contention is that, were the President an “Officer[ ]”, he would be authorized to “Commission” himself. The obvious rejoinder is that this Section, in the exercise of common sense, must be read as “all the Officers of the United States [other than himself]”, or it would directly conflict with Section 1 of that Article, which (as with any other purported conflicts among constitutional provisions) is a legal impossibility. And

c. Under Article II, Section 4, “The President * * * and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment”. This supposedly creates a dichotomy between the President and “all civil Officers”, excluding him from that class of persons. Besides not taking into account that precisely because the President “shall be removed from Office” he must be the “civil Officer[ ]” in that “Office” to begin with (as explained above), this contention requires one to disregard the obvious reading of the phrase “all civil Officers of the United States” to import “all [other] civil Officers of the United States” — that is, other than the President, he having already been explicitly singled out in that very sentence.

3. Finally, it has even been argued that Article VI, Clause 3 of the Constitution proves that the President is not an “Officer”, because that Clause mandates that “all executive * * * Officers * * * of the United States * * * shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution”, whereas the “Oath or Affirmation” of the President in Article II, Section 1, Clause 7 goes far beyond the simple words “support this Constitution” — and Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment refers simply to persons “who, having previously taken an oath * * * as an officer of the United States * * * to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection”. But why the expansive words of the President’s special “Oath or Affirmation”, being explicitly mandated by the Constitution, do not in substance constitute an “Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution” no one has ever explained. Surely to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” (the “Oath or Affirmation” in Article II, Section 1, Clause 7) amounts to, and indeed greatly exceeds, “support[ing] this Constitution” (the “Oath or Affirmation” in Article VI, Clause 3). And surely someone who, as President, has taken the more extensive “Oath or Affirmation”, and then “engaged in insurrection”, is arguably even more blameworthy and subject to disqualification from office than someone who has taken only the simple “Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution”.

II. Second, having disposed of the absurdity that the President is not “an officer of the United States”, analysis can turn to the question of how, if at all at the present time, Mr. Trump could be disqualified for the office of President under Sections 3 and 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment. The answer to that question is that his disqualification is constitutionally impossible.

1. The key operative terms in Section 3 are “engaged in insurrection * * * against the [United States]”. Because the Fourteenth Amendment is a provision of the Constitution of the United States, not of the laws of any of the several States, the definitions of these terms must be uniquely constitutional –that is, to use the adjective common in legal parlance, uniquely “federal” in nature. Unless the Constitution is misconstrued as a formula for legal and political chaos, there cannot be up to fifty different definitions each of “insurrection” and “engaged in”, depending on the particular State in which the issue might arise, with any or all of such definitions being in one way or another inconsistent with “federal” definitions. For, under Article VI, Clause 2, “[t]his Constitution * * * shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution and Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding”. The several States’ constitutions, laws, and judicial decisions — let alone determinations by their administrative agencies — can have nothing whatsoever to do with it.

Plainly, too, these uniquely “federal” definitions must be derived from common legal usage as of July 9, 1868, when the Fourteenth Amendment was ratified. And as to “insurrection” specifically, the definition must be consistent with the meaning of that term as of June 21, 1788, when the Constitution was ratified, containing the delegation to Congress of the power “[t]o provide for calling forth the Militia to * * * suppress Insurrections”, in Article I, Section 8, Clause 15. For there is no reason to believe that the Fourteenth Amendment adopted some new, idiosyncratic definition of “insurrection” at odds with the purport of that noun in the original Constitution. This, of course, excludes all of the politically motivated pseudo-definitions being proposed today to twist the Constitution out of shape in order to inculpate Mr. Trump.

Moreover, these uniquely “federal” definitions must be circumscribed by the Bill of Rights, which the Fourteenth Amendment was never intended to disregard or limit (but rather, as the Supreme Court has long maintained, to “incorporate”). In particular here, these definitions must take into account the strictures of the First Amendment, which guarantees in principle and protects in practice the freedoms of speech, petition, assembly, and association, even with respect to advocacy and activities verging on a true “insurrection”. See, e.g., Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 U.S. 444 (1969) (individual who advocates the violent overthrow of the government); and contrast Scales v. United States, 367 U.S. 203 (1961), with Noto v. United States, 367 U.S. 290 (1961) (differently situated members of an organization which advocates the violent overthrow of the government).

2. The uniquely “federal” definitions of “insurrection” and “engaged in” must be applied by “federal” officials through some uniquely “federal” process, not potentially fifty or more different legislative, judicial, or even administrative processes conducted by various officials of the States (unless, perhaps, Congress were to provide otherwise through the exercise of its unique power under Section 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment, which it has not done).

a. “Insurrection” has always been deemed an “infamous crime” — that is, a “felonious offense”. For that reason, under “federal” law an alleged “insurrection” must always be the subject of a criminal prosecution, not mere civil litigation, let alone some administrative procedure.

b. Because “insurrection” is an “infamous crime”, under the Fifth Amendment an alleged perpetrator “shall [not] be held to answer * * * unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger”.

c. As to a “criminal prosecution[ ]” for alleged “insurrection”, under Article III, Section 2, Clause 3 of the Constitution “[t]he Trial of all Crimes, except in Cases of Impeachment, shall be by Jury; and such Trial shall be held in the State where the said Crimes shall have been committed; but when not committed in any State, the Trial shall be at such Place or Places as the Congress may by Law have directed”. Moreover, under the Sixth Amendment “the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district where the crime shall have been committed, * * * and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining Witnesses to his favor; and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense”. As the supposed “January Sixth Insurrection” occurred in the District of Columbia, obviously a trial cannot be held in any State (unless Congress were to so provide, which it has yet to do).

d. In any “federal” criminal trial involving “insurrection”, “federal” evidentiary substantive standards and procedural rules must apply as to: (i) which facts are relevant, (ii) discovery as to such facts, as for example under the rule of Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83 (1963), (iii) how such facts may be proved to the jury or the court, (iv) the degree of certainty to which proof must rise (“beyond a reasonable doubt”), and so on.

e. All of this will require various “federal” statutes making “insurrection” a “federal” crime, to be enforced according to appropriate “federal” rules of Grand Jury practice, of criminal procedure at trial, of appellate review, and so on. These particulars must be provided by Congress, which under Section 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment exercises the exclusive “power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of [Section 3]”. In principle, Congress could enact a statute which permitted the States’ courts to enforce the “federal” statute making “insurrection” a “federal” crime. In practice, however, Congress has done the very opposite. Specific “federal” statutes make “insurrection” a crime, and define it as a “felony”. Title 18, United States Code, Sections 2383 and 3559(a)(3). But these statutes cannot be enforced in the States’ courts. Title 18, United States Code, Section 3231.

3. In sum, as a matter of “federal” law applicable to Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, Mr. Trump: (i) has not been arrested for the “federal” crime of “insurrection”, (ii) has not been formally charged with and arraigned for “insurrection”, (iii) has not been indicted by a “federal” Grand Jury for “insurrection”, (iv) has not been convicted of “insurrection” in a criminal prosecution in a “federal” court, and (v) has not unsuccessfully exhausted all possible appeals or other post-trial remedies which might result in reversal or negation of a conviction. Therefore, Mr. Trump is not, and cannot be, the subject of a disability which might derive from Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment that could prevent him from once again holding the office of President of the United States.

Tallahassee Eyes Arresting Citizens for “Harassing” Election Officials

Although there has never been a reported case of anyone harassing an election official in Florida, somehow, after the problems with the current administrators, Secretary of State, Cord Byrd, and Administrator of Elections, Maria Matthews were made public, the legislators felt the need for such a bill. Funny that.

The proposed legislation enables an election worker to decide what might constitute “harassment”. The proposed penalties for violation of HB721, include imprisonment. This bill has now been fast-tracked to the state Senate for approval.

REALLY?

Florida, like most states, already has a law against harassment on the books, and it is the responsibility of law enforcement to attend to such complaints when they arise. There is NO need for another harassment law, except for one — to scare citizens away from looking into Florida’s elections.

The threat of jail time; being attacked in your own home and dragged away, in front of family and neighbors; your legal firearms confiscated and DeSantis’s Red Flag Law being invoked against you; finding, hiring and affording legal counsel to defend you against the state; and the complete life-changing misery that would be felt by a good person placed in this situation. . .. THIS is what Tallahassee is counting on, to keep election fraud under wraps.

We aready know that massive irregularities in voter rolls have been proven and, thanks to ordinary citizens, are being rectified. A number of the Supervisors of Elections were not happy about this.

Since seeking the truth is only against the law in totalitarian societies, Floridians have a problem. It seems like the bright red veneer of that once “good red state” is peeling away, and what’s underneath is looking less like America and more like a totalitarian society.

Cord Byrd and Maria Matthews are in obvious violation of the ordinances concerning electioins which govern their jobs . Their responsibilities include registering only citzens to vote, and ensuring safe and secure election equipment through annual checks according to national standards. Those machine security checks have been called “horribly substandard” by the nation’s leading expert in the field.

As to the proof of citizenship to register to vote? Maria Matthews removed the checkbox for declaration of citizenship, in 2019, and has required every employee at every motor vehicle licensing center to provide a voter registration form to any and all comers. That was the first year of DeSantis’s first term.

Thus, Byrd and Matthews were asked by the Florida Republican Assembly to resign. That is what started this firestorm of proposed legislation against “harassment”.

Speaking of DeSantis, where IS he on all this? He is supposedly re-inivolved in matters of Florida, yet he has said nothing about this clearly unconstitutional bill which takes the definition of a “crime” away from existing law and creates a protected class of election officials who can decide on what constitutes a violation. It can only be assumed that he agrees with it. After all, he never found a problem with the J6 Purge…

God bless you, Florida. You got your awol governor back, and now, this. You have a VERY serious issue here. When combined with the infighting among conservatives, your wonderful state is moving along the road to destruction, and becoming another California……(ugh…sorry, I know, but I’m trying to light some fires here…:)

Light up every phone line and twitter (aka, “X”) acount and tell those ELECTED TO REPRESENT YOU that this does NOT> Get out there and make some noise! Tell everyone in every state what is happening to you.

While you’re at it, remind them to be VERY grateful that DeGov is probably never going to be their POTUS!

Joshua, an old testament type for Jesus, finished the work of Moses and brought the children of Israel into the Promised Land.  His book details the overview of their deliverance, and at the end of his book, it records his final instructions to God’s people.  Joshua reminded the people that their ancestors had lived beyond the Euphrates and he calls Abraham’s family out by name:  Terah, his dad, and Nahor, his uncle and said, “They served other gods.”  A bit later in his discourse he says this well known piece:

“Put away the gods that your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the    gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell….”[1]

Most every Christian can quote the next part:  “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

The “gods” their fathers served were the sons of God (and later their offspring) of Genesis 6 who intermarried with human women to create Nephilim who corrupted the earth.  They were spiritual beings of a higher order than man.  They took a physical form, just like God did when He walked in the Garden.

It’s a really, really old story that only changes in nuances as the centuries turn into millennia.  The Supreme God created other gods to co-reign with Him, and then He created man.  His co-reigning entities rebelled and altered the created order.  I know it’s popular to blame the perpetual failures of humanity on Adam and Eve, but they had help.

It’s really a fascinating story that would leave any movie or novel in the dust.  But we’ve sanitized it over the centuries, and taken turns both marginalizing and fantasizing it, and turned it into myths and legends, and done all but really learn from it.

Basically the fallen Watchers taught humans knowledge that corrupted humanity and were then imprisoned until the final judgment (Enoch 10:11-12, also Jude and Peter make reference to such).  Before they were imprisoned in the dark underworld, they intermarried with human women and produced offspring called the Nephilim.  (Don’t scorn me please, it’s in Genesis 6.)

The Nephilim

The Nephilim were giants.  When the Nephilim were finally killed off (the Flood finished the last of them), they were cursed in that their bodies died but their spirits were left on earth.  Enoch says plainly (En. 5:28) they are the source of demons on the earth, they roam around for things to inhabit because they can’t have their original bodies.  (Usually they inhabit people, but they can inhabit animals and objects as well.)

The late Dr. Michael Heiser brought the hardcore Scriptural breakdown of the story to the forefront.  I studied under his teaching for awhile before I said anything to anyone.  I wanted to be able to follow up on the extensive bibliography and resources he provides.  But I’ll never forget when I met my young adult son for lunch one day.  We finished our burgers and caught up on details of life, and he said casually, “What’s new with you?  What are you working on?”

I paused.  Oh well, I thought, let’s see where this goes.  I said, “Look up Psalm 82 and read the first verse to me.  Tell me what you think.”  He pulled out his phone and pulled up the Bible app.  He began reading the first verse and just looked quizzical at me.  “It’s the wrong version,”  I said.  “Look at it in the English Standard.”

He began reading aloud, “God has taken his place in the divine council; in the midst of the gods he holds judgment.”  He stopped.  I’ll never forget his face or what he said next, “Mom!  This changes everything!  This makes everything make sense.”

Yes.  Yes it does.

Before I could get home (an hour and a half drive), he had called me to tell me of additional passages he had found that helped him.  I hadn’t seen my son excited about things of God and faith in a long time.  He was disillusioned with a lot of religious aspects of western Christianity.  But this resonated with him, with his observations of the world, with his own experiences….

What are the rules for the gods?

I don’t know what the rules were for the sons of God.  There had to be some that we’re not necessarily privy to.  I was always stumped by the covenant God made with Abraham when He tells Abraham about his progeny being enslaved for four hundred years, but the fourth generation they will be released.  Then He says this curious thing, “…for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet complete.”

We can know the Amorites were giants because Amos 2:9 tells us God said, “Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars and who was as strong as the oaks.”  The Amorites lived in the known region of the giants in the region west of Sumer and ancient Babylon, and in fact were giants. (Remember, when you see “giants” think Nephilim, offspring of the fallen watchers and women.)  Nephilim existed post-Flood too.

So basically God called Abraham and set him aside to establish a people group that would be faithful to Him in the face of a world of people groups serving other gods.  But He did so with a future date in mind: four hundred years!  Why not just wait four hundred years to do it?  Why speak it four hundred years in advance?  There must be some rules or protocols if He was unwilling to move Abraham and his seed into an established territory because the occupants’ iniquity was not “yet complete”.

We know the nations were divided according to the sons of God (Deut. 32:8-9), and God later judged them (in Psalm 82) as not ruling mankind justly.  Hesier says it like this, “Recall that in Deuteronomy 32:8-9, the ‘Most High’ had disinherited the nations of the world, assigned them to the dominion of supernatural sons of God, and then created Israel from nothing.  Those sons of God rebelled and became corrupt (Psalm 32:1-4), throwing God’s order into chaos (Psalm 82:1-5).” [2]

So there must be some sort of rules in the council of the gods for being able to upend boundaries and people groups, otherwise wouldn’t God just be able to move them when and as He pleased?  I’m just thinking we don’t know all the rules the gods are playing by.  What’s the measurement for a collective iniquity to be complete?  We’re talking about the Amorites — godless, ruthless giants. Why was there a waiting time before they could be removed?  What constitutes completing the iniquity??  God was clearly keeping some standard or some set of rules there.

What was in the mind of God that He made a plan to interfere in the affairs of man and overthrow another god’s territory to establish one for Himself?  He had already reset the world twice:  at the flood and at the tower of Babel.  Were there other purposes involved?

The Timing of God

Now think of this:  if Christ was the solution to the sin problem that separates humanity from God set in motion by the first man and woman, why did God wait four thousand years to bring the solution?  Why wasn’t it at some other point?  Why then??  He reset the world twice in two thousand years (that we know of).  What was going on, what had been put in motion or already established, that caused the remedy in Noah’s day to be a flood, and in Nimrod’s day to be confounding people languages, but wait another two thousand years to bring the perpetual, perfect and permanent solution?

Why does Paul write (in Galatians 4:5) that God sent Christ “when the fullness of time had come”?  And in 1 Timothy 2:6 he said that Christ’s ransom for man was given “at the proper time”….  It’s almost as if there’s a timetable God is working on… a time for the nation of Israel to be formed… a time for the Nephilim to be eradicated… a time for the redemption of humanity to be unveiled…

Mesopotamian History is Important

Mesopotamia is the region the giants inhabited and that this drama is set against.  Mesopotamia has numerous ancient documents and histories and legends passed down in written script.  Dr. Heiser wisely argues that such script gives context to those blocks of history, and ignoring them makes one blind to seeing the bigger picture.  The western institutional church strongly discourages (and worse in some cases) studying and reading such for a multitude of reasons.  History is still history, and leaving context out hinders understanding.  (to put it mildly)  “My people perish for lack of knowledge” is certainly applicable here.  Moreover, convincing argument and evidence is provided that indicate the disciples and children of God in Christ’s day and the early church history would have this same knowledge and understanding of ancient Mesopotamia.

Heiser explains that Mesopotamian history teaches that there were divine beings pre-flood called the “apkallu” who functioned as a go-between between heaven and earth, teaching humans things like “wisdom [including omens, magic, etc.], social forms and craftsmanship”.  There were seven of these apkallu that were considered some form of “culture heroes who brought the arts of civilization to the land.  During the time that follows this period, nothing new is invented, the original revelation is only transmitted and unfolded.”[4]

In fact, Heiser underscores the relevance of this with Genesis.  He said, “It is difficult to do justice to the importance of the idea that the knowledge that made Mesopotamian civilization great – particularly in the case of Babylon – came from a divine source.  It is a subject with immediate ties to Genesis.”[5]

Whether these are benign or malevolent beings is open to debate.  The inhabitants of Mesopotamia thought they were good, and they developed their culture and society with instruction and learning from these.  The ancient scripts depict a scenario of people gaining instruction and knowledge from divine beings, and establishing their civilizations according to such instruction.

Remember, this is pre-flood.  The Bible says very little about pre-flood (comparatively to post).  As followers of the Supreme God, we can assume the knowledge and instruction being given was NOT good because it led to the destruction of life on earth.  This would also be in that time Enoch speaks quite thoroughly of regarding its wickedness and the pronouncement of God’s judgment on the (original 200) Watchers.  God said, “You were in heaven, and no mystery was revealed to you; but a stolen mystery you learned; and this you made known to the women in your hardness of heart, and through this mystery the women and men are multiplying evils upon the earth.”  (En. 16:3)

Seriously, read the book of Enoch.  The foundation for the courses of history on earth are better understood when you evaluate as much of the history available that you can.

Understanding the premise of the early history on earth and the players involved will help understand current events and the players involved.  Historical documents indicate the seven apkallu pre-flood were divine (not human), but the four apkallu recorded post-flood were “of human descent”, with the fourth (Gilgamesh) described as two-thirds apkallu.  This presents a hybrid of people on the earth even post-flood, a mixture of divine with flesh.

These hybrid post-flood apkallu were known as giants.  Those giants were later exterminated from the land God promised Abraham’s seed.  God knew when He called Abraham to that land that the giants, (hybrids of the apkallu), lived on the land.  For some reason, there was a timeline for when the land could be conquered for God’s people and it would have to wait for four hundred years.

The rest of the Bible gives plenty of opportunities to examine the continued presence of giants (Nephilim).

What happened to the sons of god with dominion over the other nations?

What I’m more interested in is the gods that created these giants and what happened to them.  Pre-Christ we know they were given dominion over the nations and the nations served these other gods.  Then Israel got ensnared with them, from Baal to Ashteroth, to Chemosh, Molech, etc.  These gods existed and humanity was paying homage to them.  Israel and Judah were both divorced from God for their unfaithfulness to Him in serving other gods.

These gods are consistent through all historical and archaeological records.  Their names change with their locations but their functions and titles remain much the same.

When Christ came as the “son of God” – a title that competes with the rebellious fallen gods – He basically waged a war on not only the consequences of sin, but also the staked claim of the fallen gods.  Christ was transfigured on Mount Hermon, the entry point for the Watchers when they descended from Heaven to earth.  Mount Hermon is considered the mountain of the gods (not God).  Christ was revealed for who He is on Mount Hermon, on enemy territory, in fact the enemy’s base camp!

Heiser reveals a subtle difference in Jesus’s encounter with the demon-possessed between Mark 1:24 and Mark 5:7.  In Mark 1:24, they were in Capernaum (Jewish territory) when the demons (remember demons are fallen Nephilim spirits inhabiting humans) addressed Him as “Jesus of Nazareth”.  But in the region of Bashan, when Jesus came into Gerasenes, the demons addressed Him as “son of the Most High God”.  (Territorial spirits are also known as principalities.)  These spirits in Gerasenes rightly identified Christ’s dominion even in their territory.  The game was changing.

As Heiser said, “Bashan and Hermon were ground zero for spiritual evil, and in particular, the Watchers of 1 Enoch.  The spiritual corruption of humanity would be healed by the atonement of the cross.  His resurrection meant that no member of the kingdom of God would share living space with the Watchers in the underworld Abyss, the realm of the dead.  Even an army of Watchers was overmatched by the Son of the Most High.  They would be lords of nothing.”²

So the gods of old were defeated at Calvary and His resurrection from the grave.  Jonathan Cahn in Return of the Gods does an excellent and careful exposition of this very topic.  He lays out how the ancient gods of Rome and Greece and Babylon, etc. (they’re all the same gods with different names according to the language spoken) waged war against the early Christians as they turned the world upside down, liberating people from empty and vile worship of malevolent beings and showing them the benevolence of the true God in His son Christ, and the freedom Christ gives.

The ancient gods were silenced and eventually all but forgotten, relegated to underground sects and cults.  Their temples and altars are now ancient ruins in what used to be hotbeds of parades and sacrifices and orgies to the gods.  But these gods emerged in America in the last fifty-plus years, specifically Baal, Ishtar and Molech.  In fact, they’ve resurfaced in many places in the last century or so.  Cahn and Heiser have their own theories on the how and why, and while I see and understand and agree with them both (different angles), I have my own theories with another slant.  But I’m out of space for today.

With a narrow majority, House Republicans voted to expel one of their own members and then lost a special election for that vacant seat in New York on Tuesday to a Biden-supporting Democrat. But it turns out the “Republican opponent” was also a Democrat.

This is another example of how the “Stupid Party” loses winnable elections.

This is also what happens when the Republican party subcontracts its candidate selection process to the New York Post and Fox News. It’s another indication that the Republican Party is headed for obliteration if it runs away from its reliable base of Trump supporters and runs fake Republicans or RINOs for office.

Conservatives are not fooled. They do not depend on the establishment “conservative” media for news and information anymore.

The New York Post and Fox News candidate, “Republican” Mazi Pilip, was a liberal black women and registered Democrat who attacked Trump and ran on a pro-abortion platform, mimicking her opponent, Democrat Tom Suozzi. Pilip lost by over seven points.

Public records uncovered by Politico showed Pilip has been enrolled as a Democrat since 2012, the publication said.

“Both Pilip and Joe Cairo, the [Nassau] county’s GOP chair, did not respond to numerous requests for comment, including through allies.” But the Nassau County Board of Elections’ spokesperson called on Pilip’s behalf and “confirmed she is an enrolled Democrat,” the publication reported.

So if she had won, would she have been expelled as well for falsely claiming to be a Republican?

President Trump is correct that MAGA voters stayed home in this race.

“Republicans just don’t learn,” said Trump, “but maybe she was still a Democrat?” He called Pilip a “very foolish woman” who tried to “straddle the fence” on many issues, including whether she would support Trump. He added, “MAGA, WHICH IS MOST OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, STAYED HOME…”

Establishment Republicans supported her because they were trying to act and look like Democrats, emphasizing ethnicity and background rather than conservative policy positions.

When she announced for the seat, she declared, “I’m a black, Jewish woman & I’m not afraid to tell you that I am 100% Pro-Law Enforcement, Pro-Border security, and Pro-Family. Democrats & the liberal media have spent years saying the GOP will never support someone of my ethnicity & my creed.”

So the Republican Party and the New York Post opted for a candidate who embodied DEI and lost the seat.

The New York Post “heartily” endorsed Pilip, warning, “A Dem win here would narrow the GOP’s already razor-thin House majority, empowering a party committed to bad and dangerous ideas.”

The paper is clearly a bad judge of character and elections in its own backyard, in this case the February 13th special election for Congress in Nassau County, New York. It should concentrate on its coverage of Taylor Swift.

With this loss, Republicans gave the seat of Republican George Santos to the Democrats and jeopardized their ability to get anything done.

In an unprecedented move, Santos had been expelled for lying about his background.

House Republicans just impeached Homeland Secretary Mayorkas for lying to Congress about a ‘secure” border. The Senate will not convict him. So he will stay in his job.

Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar, who says her top priority is to put Somalia first, remains in Congress

By any objective calculation, Democrats are winning again.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, who is a good conservative, was bamboozled into endorsing Pilip and even raising money for her. He said, “…she doesn’t have is a rolodex filled with Hollywood billionaires and Wall Street bigwigs cutting big checks like her left-wing opponent does.”

He called her “pro-family” and she claimed to be “pro-life.” But she said she would oppose an “abortion ban” to protect unborn babies and would instead protect “women’s rights” to abort their children.

In other words, she ran as a Democrat (which she was anyway) on this issue which is so important to pro-life Americans.  She even said she would oppose “funding cuts” for “reproductive care.” That meant taxpayer dollars for killing unborn babies.

The left-wing “opponent” won anyway because pro-lifers didn’t believe they had a real choice. As Trump said, they stayed home.

Despite Mazi’s status as a former soldier in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), she did not fight for conservative values. She wasn’t a Republican to begin with, although she took some “conservative” positions, such as border security. It wasn’t good enough.

There is a lesson here for conservatives who think the Republican Party is a reliable vehicle for conservative values: don’t trust the party establishment. And don’t trust the candidates themselves when they suddenly emerge as “Republicans” when they run for office.

Tucker Carlson interviews President Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin, February 8. 2024

Though summarily booted off Fox News only ten months ago, Tucker Carlson has singlehandedly pulled off the journalistic coup of the century. He’s now the envy of the myriad sycophants in mainstream media newsrooms, who do nothing more than read the scripts given them by their handlers, all of whom are in the pay of their globalist masters. Predictably, they’re attacking Carlson on cue, meaning he’s over the target.

Way to go, Tucker!

He just enabled us to witness a two-hour candid encounter with one of the world’s most important leaders.

Those of us who’ve listened to Putin’s speeches in the past—especially his remarkable speech from February 24^th, 2022, when he announced his reasons for beginning a military operation in Ukraine—were not surprised to find him a highly intelligent, knowledgeable leader with an unflappable demeanor.  But as Tucker’s interview with him proceeded, we also got a glimpse of his candor and wry sense of humor.

Predictably, the Putin demonizers—i.e. the mainstream media, Dems, RINOs, the globalist Left, etc.—are clearly scrambling to enact damage control now that millions of Americans have seen for themselves, by virtue of Tucker’s two-hour interview with the Russian President, that Putin is no bogeyman after all. And that means we’ve been lied to for years.

THE TUCKER BASHERS

Those of us who watched all two hours of Tucker Carlson’s interview of Putin were treated to an historic conversation in which we witnessed a true statesman steeped in the history of his country and that of Europe, giving insightful, measured, candid yet diplomatic answers to Tucker’s questions.

Yet the Leftist media found nothing of value in the entire interview, and everything to disparage.

Two memes appeared almost immediately in the MSM’s attempt to discredit Tucker: the claim Tucker is “not a journalist”, but rather a “useful idiot.” Just in case we miss the point, the press lackeys go on to discredit Putin as well.

Case in point: A recent MSNCB article by Frank Figliuzzi

contends that Tucker is “not a journalist” but a “former Fox News entertainer”, and that Putin is a “master at manipulating” a ”despot” and a “stone-cold killer” who “used” Carlson and “played him for a fool.”

Here are some woke attempts at zingers from Tucker’s former colleague, Chris Wallace, who says Tucker was “basically broadcasting fascist propaganda to credulous people in the West who are eager to buy into the mythology of Putin…as an enemy of wokeness.” Wallace elaborated with the memes du jour, saying the interview was: “one of the most disgraceful — to call it a journalistic performance is wrong because he’s not a journalist. …It was just simply being a scribe to one of the most vicious dictators of our time.” (Emphasis mine)

Nice try, guys. But you’ve got it exactly backwards. Having been shills so long probably makes it hard for you to recognize a real journalist when you see one. The biggest tip-off is that Hillary herself called Tucker “a useful idiot.” That’s a badge of honor coming from the Hildebeast who refers to American patriots as the Deplorables.

In fact, with his rational discourse and impressive knowledge of history and changing global power alignments, Putin puts our own President, Vice President, and most members of Congress to shame, though they were in no need of outside help on that score.

Putin comes across as sincere, principled and even, dare I say, compassionate. What a shock! Of course his perspective clashes with that of O’Biden’s destructive policies, as could be expected. And another shocker for many in Tucker’s audience may be the provable fact that the West, and particularly America, repeatedly betrayed Russia after the fall of the USSR. So instead of Putin appearing as the villain in this piece, we are confronted with our own guilty role in the war in Ukraine which we are stubbornly prolonging, among other things.

A FEW BIG TAKEAWAYS

During the interview, Putin put to rest a few of the West’s main charges against him. It’s your decision, of course, whether to believe him or not, but many facts bear him out.

We learned that Putin favored a diplomatic negotiated plan regarding Ukraine, and that such a plan had been in the works, but got torpedoed by the UK’s Boris Johnson, presumably at the behest of the U.S. Here’s some outside verification.

Arguably the biggest lie of the Leftist press has been that Putin plans to take over Europe. Here’s Politico quoting Strobe Talbott in February 2022: “Putin certainly has an endgame in mind: It’s recreating the Russian Empire with himself as tsar.” And here’s the title of an article from the UK’s Independent from March 2022: “Putin the imperialist: Why Ukraine is part of his dream of a Greater Russia.”

So Tucker asked Putin: “Well, the argument… is that, well, he invaded Ukraine. He has territorial aims across the continent. Latvia. Expansionist behavior. Can you imagine a scenario where you send Russian troops to Poland?”

And now we have Putin on record: “…they’re trying to intimidate their own population with an imaginary Russian threat… we have no interest in Poland, Latvia or anywhere else. Why would we do that? We simply don’t have any interest. It’s just threat-mongering…. It is absolutely out of the question.”

MY QUIBBLES

And though most of Tucker’s questions were apt, I, for one, winced when he asked Putin: How could he be a Christian and yet go to war, when Jesus said one shouldn’t kill, but just turn the other cheek?

Of course, if Christian pacifism under all circumstances was a necessity,

Britain should never have gone to war against Hitler, since England is a Christian country. In fact, so is nearly all of Europe, though the Nazis cultivated paganism. Or did Tucker mean to imply that this supposed Christian standard—refusing to kill no matter what—pertains only to Russia?

One more gripe. Here’s a paraphrase of another of his questions: “Why are you concerned with de-Nazification? After all, Hitler died 80 years ago…”. Did Tucker not notice the worldwide recent rise of antisemitism? Had he not heard of the Azov Battalion with its Nazi heritage and a swastika on its flag? Does he not know that copies of Mein Kampf were found among Hamas terrorists’ belongings?

Of course we owe Tucker our gratitude for pursuing this historic interview, and for asking Putin a number of vitally important questions, especially those about the war in Ukraine, and for allowing Putin to speak at length with few interruptions. And though I have quibbles over a couple of his formulations, it is possible, even likely, that his questions had to be submitted in advance for approval, as one might expect.

MY WISH-LIST OF QUESTIONS FOR PUTIN

Nevertheless, regarding questions, this was not vintage Tucker at his brilliant best. Here are some questions I wish he’d asked the Russian leader:

• You must know that a number of American politicians not only support Ukraine, but have called for regime change in Russia, i.e. they want to see you ousted from power. Why do you think that is?
• Why do you think the American elites, media, entrenched political establishment, and even many of our courts fought so hard against Trump while he was in office, and are trying to keep him from running now?
• Trump has declared he could end the war in a week if elected. Here’s a quote from the BBC from last May: “’If Mr. Trump cuts off the supply of weapons, the war will end on Russian terms, which is the West’s worst nightmare,’ says the former head of Britain’s secret service, Sir Alex Younger.” What do you anticipate would happen regarding the war in Ukraine if Trump is reelected in November, and how might that affect Russia’s relationship with the US?
• What can you tell us about corruption and malfeasance in Ukraine, including Hunter Biden’s role, his father’s role, the reported biosecurity labs, etc.?
• You say that the West is focused on practicality and technological gains, while Russia remains patriotic, religious, and nationalistic, in an almost mythic-poetic way. Yet you observe that the world power structure is changing and that one should adapt to it, and so Russia is increasingly allying with China, at least economically. Isn’t that being practical? And mightn’t there be a downside to allying with a powerful Communist country?

THE IMPORTANCE OF HISTORY

Though Putin spoke about Russian history at some length, I don’t recall him referencing the Warsaw Pact by name, and the fact that while the Pact was disbanded in 1991, its counterpart, NATO, remained—even after the collapse of the USSR. This shifted the balance of power against Russia, and of course the threat of bringing Ukraine into the NATO fold on Russia’s doorstep was a bridge too far.

Putin likely felt it necessary to review Russian history since the Western media misrepresents it, pretending Ukraine was historically an independent nation, though long referred to as the “bread basket of Russia.” Similarly, the same Leftist press misrepresents “Palestine” as the former country of Arab Muslims, though it never existed as more than a region, and where Jews were inhabitants long before Arabs.

Interestingly, there are some additional parallels between Russia and Israel. Both nations face what they perceive to be an existential threat, and have responded militarily to that threat, yet both are being accused of war crimes as they defend themselves. Furthermore, Western and especially U.S. indignation against them has resulted in the O’Biden administration and their pals in Congress clamoring for “regime change” in both Russia and Israel. We’re told Putin plans to invade more countries for Greater Russia, and that Netanyahu seeks to create Greater Israel, so both should be stopped. More Leftist lies and scare tactics, used to confuse the actual issues.

Let’s be honest: under O’Biden, for all the administration’s verbiage to the contrary, America is essentially on the wrong side in both wars. We’re fighting a proxy war against Russia in Ukraine—the seat of money-laundering and major payoffs for the Big Guy and pals; and though Biden/Blinken claim to be supporting Israel, they’re actually funding the terrorism by funding Iran, resupplying Hamas, and attempting to tie Israel’s hands to prevent the defeat of Hamas.

In fact, a case can be made that neither the war in Ukraine nor Hamas’ October 7^th attack on Israel would have occurred without American aid to the miscreants.

SOME INCONVENIENT TRUTHS

I suspect President Trump would have had an excellent relationship with Putin if the Deep State hadn’t tied his hands, and excoriated him with their “Russia Russia Russia” faux accusations, which made it awkward for him to court a new friendship with Russia. The two men likely recognized they were both nationalists fiercely opposed to globalism, giving them common ground.

Is it coincidental that the Dems/Marxist Left engineered the theft of the 2020 election, and are doing their damnedest to keep Trump from even running this year? Is it merely a coincidence that Progressive Leftists at home and abroad seek to remove Putin and Netanyahu? Or could it perhaps be because, whatever their individual flaws and shortcomings, all three leaders are dedicated nationalists who love their countries and stand firm in opposition to the global predators seeking their dystopian New World Order/Great Reset/Agenda 2030—the abolition of national sovereignty and personal liberty?

In fact, I’d argue that one of the many reasons the Dems/Deep State/Leftists concocted the Russia hoax and made up the nonsensical charge of MAGA Trump being a Russian spy, was to keep him from forging an historic relationship with our former Cold War enemy. And that may also be one of many reasons they want to keep Trump out of the White House once more, as well as a reason for their push to topple Putin. For if Trump could engineer an alliance with Putin, if nationalist America and nationalist Russia started working together, that would be mighty inconvenient for the Global Elites as they pursue their One World Totalitarian Government “Utopia.”

THE EVENTUAL HOPEFUL ENDING

I was surprised when Tucker threw Putin a curve ball in the last ten minutes of the interview, accusing him of wrongly imprisoning America journalist Evan Gershkovich and asking him publicly, on air, to release him then and there.

Though Putin gave a diplomatic response, last-minute focusing on the Gershkovich issue would have ended the two-hour interview on a sour note, so I was relieved that Tucker asked one final question. In response, Putin told a remarkable true story, invoking the presence of the Russian soul that he believes resides in the Ukrainians as well as the Russians.

It made a beautiful last word for the interview, and Tucker graciously let Putin be the one to say: “Shall we end it here?” So the master statesman, who began the program with half an hour’s history lesson that most of us could benefit from hearing, ended it on a hopeful note that healing will follow after the war, as he alluded to the profound, soulful connection to Mother Russia that, through it all, will persist for those on both sides, once peace is achieved.

In the meantime, we’ve also learned that this is a new Tucker, freed from the shackles of Fox News, courageously pursuing truth and making journalistic history. And that he’s unstoppable.

At a time when our beloved country is being systematically flooded with foreign invaders from all over the globe, South America, China, the Middle East, most of them military age males unaccompanied by women and children, it seems more important than ever to establish a means to prevent “illegal aliens” from voting in our elections, foreign interference in our elections, and most certainly, prevent any foreign occupation of The People’s White House.

Most American voters do not know that only one tiny little three-word clause in Article II of the US Constitution, exists to prevent foreign occupation of the White House. Nowhere else in codified US Law is there anything else to prevent foreign occupation of the most powerful political office in the USA.

That three-word clause in Article II of the US Constitution pertaining to the offices of President and Vice President, is often referred to as the natural-born Citizen clause. In addition to an age and residency requirement, the natural-born Citizen clause is the only other constitutional requirement for the Oval Office, and it’s the only one of the three designed to prevent foreign occupation of the office.

WHAT COULD BE MORE IMPORTANT?

Yet, most voters and politicians seem entirely unconcerned with the reality that “ineligible candidates” appear on our ballots all of the time, especially since 2008, now 16-years ago.

Yes, secure borders, free, fair, transparent, and lawful elections, the economy, national security, many things are now high on everyone’s priority list after COVID and three years of a totally destructive O’Biden administration. But if we can’t even protect the Oval Office from foreign occupation, when there’s a simple clause in the Constitution for just that purpose, then what else do you think you can fix?

Two brave honorable State Legislators in Tennessee recently sponsored a bill to prevent “constitutionally ineligible candidates” from gaining ballot access in the State, Representative Hulsey and Senator Nicely. WHY? Because voters assume all candidates are eligible for the offices they seek, simply because their name appears on the ballots. That’s why…

Ineligible candidates have appeared on ballots in the USA in every election cycle since 2008. According to officials, the political parties are responsible for vetting their candidates before seeking to place them on the ballot. But neither political party is doing it as of today.

However, the bill was almost immediately targeted, as were the bill sponsors, by rabid misinformed alleged “Trumpers” who lit up the State House with emails and phone calls from across the country, all based upon a blatantly false attack by social media activist Laura Loomer. Then, someone named Eric at Conservative Tree House followed Loomer’s lead, also without reading the bill and his followers jumped into the chaos.

Within 24 hours, social media followers had knee-jerk doomed the bill, without ever reading the bill. The following morning, Tennessee Conservative News actually read the bill and got the story right, but it was too late. Still, even some of those readers couldn’t seem to grasp the reality that there’s nothing in the bill that isn’t in the Constitution, other than State enforcement of those requirements. I truly fear the lack of intelligence in our country today. It may be the biggest problem of all.

Now, to be at least somewhat fair to these online activists, the dozens of false accusations, and attacks on Trump ever since 2015, have turned many good people into real trigger-happy “conspiracy theorists” as they have grown to distrust pretty much everyone, except Trump…including many at Trump’s side.

But this event demonstrates just how dangerous and self-destructive, even nationally self-defeating it can be to blindly follow anyone, without doing your own homework to verify the story, especially related to social media posts.

No matter Loomer’s intentions, that of Eric at Conservative Tree House, or even the many blind followers who lit up the Tennessee State House in hours, the outcome is terrible, and entirely counter-productive to their stated “conservative” goals. They killed a bill that should be passed in every State…if we ever want only “constitutionally eligible candidates” to appear on our ballots at election time.

The simple truth is, neither party and no state currently vets candidates for constitutional eligibility or prevents them from appearing along side eligible candidates on our ballots. Case in point… Nikki Haley is a “naturalized” citizen only by “Immigration and Naturalization” codes and the 14^th Naturalization Amendment, a condition often referred to accurately, if not kindly, as an “anchor baby” citizen. Both of her parents were legal citizens of India, not the United States at the time of her birth. Her only access to legal citizenship as a result, was 14^th Amendment “born on soil” naturalization, after which, her parents could apply for legal citizenship via their “anchor” baby.

The bill just torpedoed by alleged Trump supporters, would deny Haley ballot access, as well as numerous others ineligible for the office. Vivek Ramaswamy was also “born on soil” to parents who were not citizens of the United States at the time of his birth, and not constitutionally eligible.

In my previous piece, The Nikki Haley Plot Against the USA, I explained just why this issue is of critical nature at this moment in US history. Sadly, due to the ill-informed actions of online activists who claim to be Trump supporters, it looks like this matter will not be corrected in Tennessee this year.

“When once a Republic is corrupted, there is no possibility of remedying any of the growing evils but by removing the corruption and restoring its lost principles; every other correction is either useless or a new evil.” ~ Thomas Jefferson

At this time in history, the American people are being led by the most corrupt president ever to live in the White House. While he dodders through the day both physically, mentally and emotionally—-we, the American people, are left to pick-up the nightmare that he has created on our Southern Border.  We are left to pick up the pieces of Ukraine and Israel.  We are left with the understanding that our basic citizenship has been erased.  We are left with accelerating crime, accelerating violence, and accelerating denouncement of our country  from within our country.  We are left with terrorists within our midst. We’re left with drug pushers in every city in America.

John Wayne said it succinctly:  “Life is tough; It’s even tougher if you’re stupid.”

What about an entire country devolving into sheer stupidity, ignorance, and loss of common sense?  What do you do when our own leaders won’t or can’t lead? What do you do when our own governors and mayors of our states and cities break our most basic laws?  What do you do when our national leaders refuse to enforce the U.S. Constitution?

The mainstream media ignores reality of the short and long-term consequences of Biden’s dementia.

“We can evade reality, but we cannot evade the consequences of evading reality” ~ Ayn Rand

Well, the morons running New York City, Detroit, Michigan, Minneapolis, Minnesota, Denver, Colorado, Miami, Florida, Los Angeles, California and San Francisco—-are discovering you cannot evade the consequences of reality.  They invited “reality” into their cities, and now, that reality is destroying the existence of their own citizens.  We’re talking the reality of our destroyed educational systems. We’re talking about the fear of walking down a city street. We’re talking about 100,000 drug-overdose deaths annually. We’re talking about $100 billion in shoplifting, annually in the USA.

Writer Steve Rossiter said, “For at least the last 50 years, Americans have evaded the reality that all levels of American government are fraught with criminally corrupt individual officials both elected and Deep State employed “corruptocrats.” This insidious corruption involves all three branches of government from the top of the federal government down to local political party central committees.”

Can you name the most corrupt of those people in Washington DC?  I can: Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Charles Schumer, Ms. Jackson Lee, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Hillary Clinton,  and list grows.  Who are the most stupid?  Maxine Waters leads the pack, but Georgia’s Hank Johnson thinks too much weight on one side of the Island of Guam would tip it over.

As a 27 year old staff attorney for the House Judiciary Committee, Ms. Hillary Clinton suffered firing by her supervisor, lifelong democrat Jerry Zeifman who said, “She is a liar. She was unethical and dishonest. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

If you remember the murders at the U.S. embassy in Benghazi that suffered a terrorist attack that killed four people, her reply, “What difference – at this point, what difference does it make?”

Barack Obama continued the cover-up of his incompetence in not fortifying the embassy and ignoring all calls for help. Good men died because of malfeasance and ineptitude.

In my own state of Colorado, House Member Lauren Boebert must prove herself an infantile, non-descript, and totally inept politician.

Following her are my two U.S. Senators: John Hickenlooper and  Michael Bennet. Both veteran politicians who have done more to harm  Colorado and America with their open borders lawlessness.  But then, look at your own two senators and House member—-the majority of them refuse to enforce our laws.

Rossiter continued, “No matter what it is called, it’s bribery none the less. The quickest way to assess the degree of bribery an elected official has accepted is to compare his or her net worth prior to entering office and current net worth. No matter whether the elected official is in the administrative branch of government, the legislative branch of government, or elected to the judicial branch of government, if the individual’s net worth increases more than a reasonable person would expect it to do on their government salary, corruption is likely in play. When corruption is in play, that bribe money becomes more important than the job they were hired to do by the voters.”

“Show me a man that gets rich by being a politician, and I’ll show you a crook.” ~ Harry S. Truman

Notice that Nancy Pelosi has LIVED in Congress for three decades, uses military private jets to go home on weekends, and is worth over $100  million from insider trading on defense contracts.  Ever wonder why she voted to keep Afghanistan and Iraq Wars going for 20 years?

Lord Acton said, “Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

Our country stands eyeball-deep in debt, violence, lawlessness, 40 million plus illegal aliens, corruption, drugs and worse—-yet we keep voting those corrupt people back into office year after year, decade after decade.

“Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.” ~ Thomas Jefferson

How  much longer will this country last?

February 15, 2024

I’m trying to decide which is the most inane nooze story I’ve covered this week. I’ve got it down to just two leading candidates. Pick one!

First we have a member of the Boston City Council suggesting that suburban residents “open their homes” to illegal aliens, now called “Migrants”. It seems the sanctuary city is running out of sanctuary; so you folks out there—“the wealthy,” as she calls you—ought to find it in your hearts to provide it.

These people, who waltz across our border, thousands per day, illegally, need a place to stay. The government doesn’t even try to vet them. Gang members, terrorists, drug pushers, sex offenders, people with highly contagious diseases… the government doesn’t care, just let ‘em in. Someday we can turn them into Democrat voters! Just bring ‘em into your home with your twelve-year-old daughter; she’ll think their tattoos are really cool. What could possibly go wrong?

Now it practically goes without saying that this council member is not going to open her home. No-no-no! She wants to share your home with them. And, she says, you’ll be “setting them up for success.” Surely that’s worth a little tiny itsy-bitsy risk!

Our second news item takes us to the United Kingdom, where they’re fixing to arrest people for wearing masks, especially to, um, “political protests”. Wait a minute, though. Two years ago they ended their “mask mandate,” which required people to wear masks. Almost 4,000 people were arrested and fined for not wearing masks. Would you believe it? Holy cow, masks can be used to conceal your identity! Like, when you commit a crime.

Confusing, isn’t it? First it’s against the law not to wear a mask. Now it’ll be against the law to wear one. If they keep the old law, they’ll have you coming and going.

Dishonorable Mention: Faced with seven out of their last eight movies bombing at the box office, Disney Corp hired a “crisis management expert” to advise them, promptly decided to ignore the advice because it wasn’t what they wanted to hear, and announced plans to take one of their most successful film series, “Pirates of the Caribbean,” and replace the star, Johnny Depp, with some black woman to play a gorgeous sexy pirate captain. Now is that Woke or what?

Well, heck, they’ve got to check off all those boxes, don’t they? Actually, the gorgeous sexy female pirate captain has for decades been a standard cliché of unbearably schlocky romance writing. It’s not a new idea at all. Yeahbut, yeahbut! You’re gonna say “No!” to a gorgeous sexy female pirate captain who’s black? Tell us another one! Not in Disneyland you’re not. Could they also work it out so she’s a “Migrant”? That’d give them more Woke points.Yeah, they’ll be lined up around the block to see that one.

Everything is getting so flaming stupid! Is Disney trying to go bankrupt? Does anybody want MS13 gangsters holed up in their living rooms? And how do you decide, anymore, whether to wear a mask or not? Maybe only on even-numbered days? What the devil is happening to our civilization?

Maybe it’s the devil himself that’s happening. That would explain it.

I have discussed these and other topics throughout the week on my blog, http://www.leeduigon.com/ . Click the link and come sigh with us. My articles can also be found at www.chalcedon.edu/ .

Note:  This was first published Oct 11, 2012.  Some things never change.

Babylon–any society or group in a society considered as corrupt or as a place of exile by another society or group.

America has become a modern-day Babylon. What was once “the land of the free and the home of the brave” has fallen into captivity. We have been conquered, not by a foreign army, but by a foreign ideology.

“Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.” Isaiah 1.

America is no longer a Christian nation. The sooner we admit this obvious truth, the more clearly we will be able to see the way out. Although many of us fight to restore the Christian values upon which this nation was founded, our headaches would diminish if we would come to the realization that America is under judgment.

That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t continue to fight, but we must face the fact that America is becoming an ever-pagan nation ruled by ever-more pagan leaders. Other than a sprinkling of salt here and there can you name even one strong Christian in a position of power in the United States government? I fear you can’t.

Our nation has been “overthrown by strangers.” How else can you explain the choice for the leader of this once Christian nation being a battle between a Mormon and a pseudo Muslim-liberal Christian-humanistic-communist-witch’s brew of an American/Indonesian dual citizen?

Yes, my friends. Christians have been led captive into Babylon and because of the judgment that is upon us the only choices we have are evil. Evil is evil. There is no “lesser” evil. Evil men will do evil things.

But how did we get in Babylon?

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, unto all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem unto Babylon.” Jeremiah 29:4. The Lord is the one who put us here. It is another sign of judgment on America. A Babylonian nation will select Babylonian leaders.

As much as my heart breaks to say it, America today cannot be ruled by Christian leaders. The pagans have us outnumbered. America is awash in sin.

Sin has flooded the nation because it has flooded the church. Even though nearly 80% of Americans identify as “Christians” we know that they really aren’t Christians. It is merely their religion of preference when filling out the census report. Calling oneself a Christian today is meaningless.

And that includes those sitting in the pews. If they were really Christians they would hate sin, flee idolatry, immorality, and hate that which is evil and cling to that which is good.

Pastors are money driven, and they won’t speak against sin.  Folks love to rail about how un-Christian our Presidential candidates are, while looking the other way at the hireling in the pulpit selling out the sheep for a few silver coins.

“For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.” Jude (I suggest you read all of Jude. It will explain the condition of the church.)

I am always amazed that every four years, and especially so this time, Christian’s get all in a huff over evil. We use our vote for President of the United States as if we were selecting a Theologian-in-Chief. Suddenly our choices become sacred, and a “matter of conscience”. While all we ignore the real problem in America.

The problems in America can be pin-pointed at the pulpit. Why is it that we demand “Godly leaders” for America, while ignoring the un-Godly leadership in the pulpit?

We get ticked when candidates support gay marriage while thousands of pastors, and their flocks, openly embrace what God calls an abomination.

Whole denominations of Christianity have turned to pagan beliefs, rituals, and apostasy, while we “good Christians” scream about the spiritual condition of the men vying for Commander-in-Chief. We expect from our politicians what we do not expect from our Christian leaders.

In Jeremiah 29:10-14 the Lord tells us that it will be a long captivity…70 years…but that He will not forget His people who remain faithful during the captivity. We need to be in this for the long haul…for the sake of our children and the sake of the Gospel.

Are you preparing yourself and your family? Are you training them in the ways of the Lord? Will your family be among those who “endure to the end?” The White House reflects the school house, the church house, and your house.

Judgment begins first in the house of God.

Our political candidates have made known their positions on the moral issues of the day. Sadly, many standing in the pulpit have not.

I wonder how most pastors would square if they had to publicly state and defend their positions in front of a congregation they were endeavoring to be elected to lead.

Heck, many pastors are leading congregations and are afraid to clearly state their positions on issues for fear of dividing the flock. That isn’t leadership. That is pandering in much the same way candidates for office do.

We want a “Christian President” to rule over a nation where the majority of the citizens are only Christians according to the census form.

America is modern day Babylon. True-Believers are in captivity in this pagan land.

Can we be honest here? We are selecting pagan leaders to rule over a pagan nation. We murder unborn children, we dishonor the marriage bed, we covet, we lie, we steal, and vote for candidates who do the same. Pagan nations have pagan leadership. America’s answers are not political… “strangers devour it in your presence.”

Before we demand theological purity from our Presidential candidates perhaps it might be appropriate to look at our own dirty laundry. Let’s start with the man in the mirror.

Are our government leaders forcing you to put your children in the pagan schools? Do you know anything about the spiritual beliefs of the teachers who indoctrinate your children every day? Do you demand that your children’s’ teachers share the same values that are taught in your home? Do you apply the same standards to your child’s teacher as you do the Presidential candidates? A child becomes like his teacher. Which will be most destructive to your child…the man in the school house or the man in the White House?

Do you sit silently in your church while apostasy runs rampant merely because your family has been members there for generations? Do you sit in an apostate denomination because you were baptized there? Do you attend a church, despite the doctrine, because you enjoy the “worship,” or they have a “great youth group,” or “so many of your friends” attend as well? Do you sit silently in the pew as the leadership takes the congregation farther and farther from the truth because you don’t want to make waves? Are you more Biblically literate today than you were five years ago? Which will have a greater impact on America’s spiritual life…the man in the church house or the man in the White House?

Do you lead family devotions with your children? Do you regularly pray and read the Bible with your spouse? Have you discussed spiritual issues with your children or do you leave that to the “youth leader?” Have you removed the influence of TV from your impressionable children? Have you checked their i-pods to see what they are listening to? Have you checked out their Facebook page? What do you know about their friends? What do you know about their teachers? Have you checked out the textbooks that are framing their worldview? Which will have a greater impact on your children’s spiritual life…the man in your house or the man in the White House?

Perhaps we are worried about cleaning up the wrong house.

February 15, 2024

February 15, 2024 is the Fifty First Anniversary of a shining moment in American history: It was on that day in 1973 that American prisoners of war began the repatriation process that would finally bring them home from Vietnam with their honor intact.

They had suffered unspeakably harsh treatment and depravation, many for over five, six, or seven years—and two for nearly nine years. The abuses and torture of American POWs were applied by the North Vietnamese communists, and their leader, Communist Ho Chi Minh.

It was a day of great importance in 1973, in an America divided by the war in Vietnam. And, it is a day to remember all these years later in an even more divided America. It is important for what it teaches about duty, honor, sacrifice and country. It is about who we are and what we can be.

The Vietnam War had severely divided Americans. It was and remains the first time in American history that veterans came home from war not to be honored for their service and sacrifice, but to be vilified, defamed as “war criminals,” told by their military commanders not to wear their uniforms in traveling home, many even spat upon as they arrived home at airports, train or bus stations.

Our younger generations need to realize how our valiant POW’s were vilified by Progressive Liberal Democrats and celebrities like actress Jane Fonda; her Leftist husband Tom Hayden—a founder of Students For A Democratic Society (“SDS”); the “Prairie Fire” communist domestic terrorist bombers like Bill Ayers (a multi-millionaire’s son) and his wife, Bernadine Dorn (a wealthy lawyer’s daughter) ; and self-promoting Democrat political opportunists like John Kerry, who publicly accused American troops of war crimes in Congressional testimony without ever being able to offer any proof. Kerry, once Democrat Party nominee for the Presidency, was thoroughly exposed as an utter and contemptible self-promoting liar by the book “Unfit For Command,” but he remains to this day a leader in the Democrat Party, most recently as its Climate Czar

These Leftist, Progressive Liberal Democrats, Socialists, Communists, Anarchists, and Communists supporting Marxist Democrats, publicly, viciously, and blatantly falsely denounced the POWs as “liars” in claiming “torture.” They insisted that Ho Chi Minh was but a benevolent nationalist Vietnamese patriot who would not engage in torture.

Only after the war was the overwhelming evidence acknowledged that Ho Chi Minh was in fact a dedicated Communist dictator who was in fact responsible for, and had personally ordered, the torture of POWs. Violating basic tenets of international rules for treatment of POWs, Ho refused to follow the Geneva Accords. Today, those facts are indisputable.

Most of the American prisoners of war were American pilots. The very first pilot captured was Lt(jg) [later Commander 0-5] Everett Alvarez, Jr., of Salinas, CA. He was shot down on August 5, 1964, and was held captive of the Communists for over eight years, until February 12, 1973, when Operation Homecoming began.

The only American to serve longer than Everett Alvarez as a POW was Army Green Beret, Colonel Floyd James (“Jim”), Thompson. He was an enlisted man who became a Special Forces officer. He was captured on March 26, 1964. He remained a captive until March, 1973, only ten days short of nine years as a POW — years in which he suffered almost unbelievable torture.

There were 776 Americans taken prisoner of war; 114 of them died in Communist captivity. The Communists under Ho Chi Minh refused to recognize them as Prisoners of War. Instead, the Communists declared them to be “war criminals” and blatantly violated the Geneva Convention. In what became known by the POWs as the “Hanoi Hilton,” and like prisons, the POWs were kept in filthy, windowless, vermin-infested, airless cells, and suffered excruciating torture.

Those seen as “ringleaders” of the resistance, like ranking officers of the resisters in what became known as the “Alcatraz Eleven,” James Stockdale, who would later receive the Medal of Honor, and his second in command, Jeremiah Denton, who received the Navy Cross, would be locked in solitary confinement for over four long years, in which horrific torture was inflicted on them, and the other resisters.

The fact of torture was not confirmed until 1966. Then, the Communists attempted to force Jeremiah Denton to participate in a propaganda broadcast to be filmed by a Japanese crew for international distribution.

Instead, Denton not only did not say what the Communists wanted him to say, but he blinked his eyes as if he had an eye problem. He was in fact blinking in Morse Code: “T-O-R-T-U-R-E.” Naval intelligence immediately understood what Denton was communicating. When the Communists later realized what Denton had done, they tortured him nearly to death, as he recounts in his now classic book on what POWs endured: “When Hell Was In Session.” (WND Books)

Overwhelming post-war proof of torture beyond any reasonable doubt has given the lie to torture-deniers Fonda, Hayden, Kerry, et al. Accounts of torture are related in the many books by or about the POWs. These include,

“POW,” by John Hubbell, the first extensive history of the POWs in Vietnam; “Honor Bound,” the seminal tome of facts by Stuart Rochester and Frederick Kiley; the late Admiral Jeremiah Denton’s classic “When Hell Was In Session;” “Surviving Hell,” by the late Col. Leo Thorsness (USAF, ret.; Medal of Honor); “The Passing Of The Night,” by the late Colonel Robinson Risner (USAF); “American Patriot,” the biography of the late and legendary POW and Air Force combat pilot Colonel Bud Day, a hero in three wars (WWII, Korea, Vietnam), and Medal of Honor recipient who was the most decorated veteran of his era; “Chained Eagle,” by Everett Alvarez, Jr., who, as stated above, was the first pilot shot down, a POW for almost nine years;

And, among other books, “Faith of my Fathers,” by the late Sen. John McCain— who refused an offer of early release by the Communists because his father was the Commanding Admiral, and suffered horrendous torture for his refusal. Whatever thoughts may be today regarding McCain’s actions as a U.S. Senator, McCain was a true hero as a POW; was recognized as such by his fellow POWs; and was left permanently crippled in his arms by torture.

More recently, author Alvin Townley has written a book magnificently telling the true story of the torture POW’s endured in Vietnam, and what their families endured at home: “DEFIANT: The POWs Who Endured Vietnam’s Most Infamous Prison; The Women Who Fought For Them, And The One Who Never Returned.”

It was not until February, 1973, that the breakthrough in Paris peace talks came and Operation Homecoming began. The first flight of emancipated POWs out of Vietnam to Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines was on Feb. 12, 1973. At Clark, the elected spokesman for the POWs, then-Captain Jeremiah Denton, in military uniform, stepped to the microphone, and spoke in short stroke words which began the stirring of the heart of a divided nation:

“We are honored to have had the opportunity to serve our country under difficult circumstances. We are profoundly grateful to our Commander-in-Chief and to our nation for this day. God Bless America.”

Then came that shining moment three days later on February 15, 1973, when Denton, Jim Mulligan, and the others of the first group of POWs landed at the Portsmouth Naval base in Virginia, back on American soil. Their wives and children rushed to embrace them, as, to the POWs surprise, a huge crowd of Americans roared with cheers for them, waving flags, laughing, some weeping with joyful emotion, Americans at last embracing the Americans they sent to war, welcoming them home — as all Vietnam veterans should have been welcomed.

Many of the Vietnam POWs are no longer with us, including Vice Admiral James Stockdale, Rear Admiral Jeremiah Denton, Col. Bud Day, and many others. But their example is with us challenging us to great accomplishments.

One of those exemplars, though he humbly eschews special recognition, is Lt. Col. Orson Swindle, a much decorated retired Marine combat pilot who flew over 200 combat missions. He was shot down on November 11, 1966, on his 205th and last scheduled mission. He endured six years and four months of torture at the hands of the North Vietnamese Communists who targeted him as one of the worst of the “resisters.” At home, he continued to serve in the Marine Corps until retirement. As a civilian, he held several high positions in the Reagan administration. Lt.Col. Swindle expressed to me in an interview for NewsWithViews.com, why he believes it is important now to remember what the POW’s did then. Lt. Col. Swindle said:

“I think it is very important to remember and honor the service and sacrifice of the Vietnam War POWs because our democracy depends on our people doing the right thing. The Vietnam POWs did that, in the face of great adversity. We held on for five, six, seven, and even eight years of torture. We did the right thing. We just said ‘No!’

“We knew our country isn’t perfect. But, even knowing the warts and all, our country has offered all people more freedom, and more opportunity than any country ever, and is still, the greatest nation on earth. Deserving of our support, our sacrifice, even our love. That is why we did what we did.

“In the interrogations, in which we were often beaten, abused, or tortured, it would have been so easy to escape punishment by saying what the Communists wanted to hear. But, we said ‘No.’ We often got beaten up, but we said ‘No.’

“I was, I believe, POW Number 144. Ultimately, there would be over 700. I learned so much from those who came before me. They were remarkable leaders who set the example. Men like [Admiral] James Stockdale [Medal of Honor recipient] and [Rear Admiral] Jeremiah Denton [Navy Cross recipient], and Bud Day [as stated above, legendary Air Force combat pilot, Medal of Honor recipient, hero in three wars —WWII, Korea, and Vietnam—and considered the most decorated veteran of his era]. They and the other POWs who followed them ought to be remembered, honored, and followed.

“Following their example, we suffered, but we wouldn’t surrender, through years of abuse, beatings, and torture. We would just say—‘No!’ And we did that time after time.

“I confess that I am greatly concerned about what is happening in our country today. No one seems to be held accountable. We had a debacle in Afghanistan in which Americans were left behind. We have an invasion at our southern border. We have rising inflation. We have crime escalating all across the country. We have had unprecedented mandates telling us we can’t leave our homes, or enter restaurants without masks, or go to church during the Covid pandemic. We have had hundreds if not thousands of our military members purged for raising religious objections to vaccination of experimental drugs. We have had hundreds of violent riots, looting, burning, police being injured. There is one crisis after another. We are being lied to repeatedly. But, no one is being held accountable. I am afraid if we don’t wake up and stand up against this, and against so-called “Woke” culture, we are not going to have a country.

“So, I believe,” Lt. Col. Swindle concluded, “citizens need to do today what the POWs did even in the face of terrible torture—do the right thing, and just say ‘No’!”

Amen. May the God the POWs served bless and keep them; may the country for which the POWs served and sacrificed so courageously and honorably always remember and honor them—and their families, who also suffered.

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

February 14, 2024

• We are in the middle of another primary season. But have you considered what the purpose behind these primaries?
• Why do we have an election season before the election?
• Why does the American taxpayer fund elections for private organizations?

I propose that all elections for the board members of non-profit corporations should be run by the state at taxpayer expense. After all, we already have taxpayer funded elections for private organizations. We call them “Primaries”.

While this year’s presidential primaries are pretty much a fait accompli, there are still hundreds, if not thousands, of primary elections that will be held over the next few months. In some cases the race is so partisan that the primary effectively decides the race and the general election is moot. What’s the purpose of these taxpayer funded private elections? Why to limit your choices on election day, of course. So why do we keep paying for someone else to take away our choices?

Before Primaries

It may surprise many of you, but the word “primary” did not exist in the Constitution until 1964, with the ratification of the Twenty-Fourth Amendment.

The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice President, for electors for President or Vice President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress, shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reason of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax.

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XXIV

The reason is quite simple. Though there were a few primaries in the United States as early as the 1840s, it wasn’t until the early 20th century that they became widespread. In fact, the modern primary is merely the latest attempt by political parties to control elections. Starting in the colonial period, and continuing into the 19th century, political parties widely used caucuses to choose their candidates for state and local offices. Although the use of caucuses declined in the 20th century, several states still use them to choose their state’s political parties’ candidates for President. Concerns about abuses of the caucus system led state political parties to adopt conventions as the method of choosing their candidates. However, abuses of this system has led to their general demise, with the exception of the national parties choices of their presidential candidate. For the most part, conventions have been replaced by primaries elections in the 20th century. The process of political parties choosing their candidates became more and more influential as we changed how we voted.

How We Vote

For the first 50 years of our history, people did not vote by secret ballot. Rather, people voted “viva voce”, or by voice. This helps explain why Article II of the Constitution requires Presidential Electors to vote by ballot.

The Electors shall meet in their respective States, and vote by Ballot for two Persons, of whom one at least shall not be an Inhabitant of the same State with themselves.

U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 1, Clause 3

Imagine walking into a courthouse, swearing on a Bible that you were who you claimed to be, and had not already voted, then announcing in front of the entire room your name and who you were voting for? That’s how it was done until the early 19th century. While this may sound crazy to modern ears, the party atmosphere that surrounded voting probably explains why turnouts routinely reached as high as 85%.

In the early 19th century, states started adopting the paper ballot, but not like the ones we see today. The original paper ballot was nothing but a blank scrap of paper, which you would write in your candidate’s name and drop it in a box. In an attempt to be helpful, Newspapers began printing blank ballots, listing only the offices which were up for election. Voters could clip these ballots out of the paper, write in their candidates name, and drop them in the ballot box. How long do you think it was before political parties figured out a way to influence the vote? If your answer is “Not long”, you’d be correct.

By the mid-19th century, state Democrat and Republican parties were printing flyers with not only the offices, but the parties candidate already filled in. It was legal for people to simply drop these pre-printed “tickets” in the ballot box, which certainly made voting down the party line easier. This, of course, led to claims of fraud, which led the states of New York and Massachusetts in 1888 to require voters to only use ballots printed by the state. These ballots resemble what we see today, listing not only the offices, but all the candidates who were running for those offices. By using state laws to hamper a candidate’s ability to be on said ballot, the political parties have been able to regulate who you get to vote for in the actual elections.

States do allow write-in voting, but the laws often make it extremely difficult to win a race that way. For example, most states have a requirement that the candidate’s name be legible, written a certain way, and that it be spelled properly. Joe Biden ran a write-in campaign for the Democratic primary in New Hampshire. I wonder if the rules required people to write in “Joe Biden”, “Joseph Biden”, “Joseph R. Biden”, or “Joseph Robinette Biden”? Not only does a write-in candidate have to convince people to vote for them, they also have to train them to spell their name correctly. That is probably why, since the general adoption of state printed ballots, only two congressional races have been won by a write-in candidates, Strom Thurmond in 1954 and Charlie Wilson in 2006.

Controlling the Vote

Now the states are not only in control of who is on the ballot, but allow the state political parties to make that decision for them. This creates a very incestuous relationship, where those in office make the laws that make sure the political parties have an advantage. Which leaves us with the situation where the political parties tell us which of their members the people will be “allowed” to vote for. Of course we’re told that it’s the people in the parties who are choosing their candidates, but the last two presidential elections exposed that to be a lie. In both 2016 and 2020, Bernie Sanders was leading the race for the Democratic nomination for President, only to have his chance taken away by party machinations. While that might be the most blatant example, it certainly isn’t the only time political parties have influenced the nomination process. Through money, power, and influence, the American people are told who would be the “most electable” candidate or who would best represents “the party”, all to get us to choose the candidate the party wants. The higher the office, the more time, money, and influence the parties expend to tell you how to vote. By the time we get to Election Day, most of the decisions have already been made, because most people vote for their party’s candidate. And as a last insult to our injury, the states have their own taxpayers paying to help take away your choice. We’ve even created a phrase I hear almost every election: We’re told we have to choose the lesser of two evils. Of course it’s never mentioned that the two evils were chosen by the political parties.

Publicly Funded

Since these primaries are run by the state, the taxpayer gets to pay the bill. Not just the printing of the ballot, but insuring they are distributed to each and every county. Then, of course, the county has to pay to make sure the ballots are available at each polling station. Then there’s the manpower needed at those polling stations, a cost that is ever increasing as election day has been expanded to election week, and even election month. Then there are the ballot collection, counting, and reporting. And let’s not forget what happens if there’s a run-off or a problem? Paid for by the good ole’ We the People, run by the state, and controlled by the political parties. All so that on the actual Election Day you are psychologically directed to choose only from those candidates the political parties have approved.

What most people don’t seem to realize is that your state’s political parties are non-profit corporations. Which means that primaries are actually elections for private organizations, the political parties. So not only are you the taxpayer paying for elections for private organizations, your own state laws are used to allow those private organizations to limit who you see on the ballot. How corrupt does that sound to you?

Is There a Solution?

I’ve seen several people make suggestions to solve this problem, and a few states have tried. Some states have an “Open Primary”, where an individual can vote in a primary without being affiliated with that party. Some states have started using “Ranked Choice Voting”, where people choose up to three candidates, followed by a rather complicated process that is used to weed the selection down to one. Others use a “Jungle Primary”, also known as a “Cajun Primary” or “Louisiana Majority Vote” system, where all candidates are on the ballot. If an individual gets a majority of the vote for an office, they win. If not, then there is a run-off election between the top two vote getters. This has the advantage of getting rid of the primary, but often requires a later run-off vote.

Personally, I like the idea of just having all of the candidates eligible and running for an office on the ballot, like we see in both Ranked Choice Voting and Jungle Primaries. Of the two, I much prefer the latter. Although it does frequently delay the decision, it doesn’t have the complicated “whittle down” process of Ranked Choice, and I think the cost in both time and money for a Louisiana Majority Vote are offset by the improved ability to accurately represent the will of the voters. Maybe there’s another idea or an even better system. If there is, I’m not aware of it, but would be interested. So if you have what you think is a better idea, please let me know.

Conclusion

It seems this idea of the political primary or its variants, have become so much a part of our election process, most people don’t even realize it’s a relatively new thing. While I have no problem with political parties choosing their preferred candidate, I am opposed to them doing all they can to limit my choices to those candidates.

Imagine walking into a voting booth, and the ballot listing all the names of the people who have qualified to run for office? There still needs to be some vetting process for candidates, some paperwork to request access to the ballot, and probably some process to insure there is enough support to warrant being included. Beyond that, let all comers be on the ballot and let the people decide. I know what I’m saying sounds radical, but really it’s just a return to how things used to be. I’m not saying we should go back to voice voting, but shouldn’t We the People be the deciders of who we can vote for, rather than the political parties? Don’t we denigrate countries like Iran and Venezuela where political actors limit the choices on the ballot? I’m not naive enough to think such a change could happen in the current spirit of revenge between our two largest political parties. For everyone who wished for a chance to vote for a third-party candidate though, shouldn’t we be working to make it more possible, rather than following those fighting tribes further down the road to the ruin of our public liberty?

“For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense unto Baal.” —Jeremiah 11:13

Somehow or another, the children of the apostate have mistakenly made entertainers and professional athletes people of importance so much so that they have put their idols, players, and teams in the place of Christ (Exodus 20:13; Acts 4:12).

Idol: An image, form or representation, usually of a man or other animal, consecrated as an object of worship; a pagan deity.

In every city in America, we discover idol worship.

The children of the apostate have their own sports icons and mascots with their favorite teams and players.  They have football teams, baseball teams, basketball teams, hockey teams, you name it, they have it covered.

They have red & blue devil mascots, demons pigs, chickens, wolves, gophers, badgers, buffaloes, tigers, goats, rams, hawks, bears, eagles, lions, cougars, elephants, ducks, alligators, bulls, long horns, hound dogs, Constellation (stars) mascots, people mascots, kings, sailors, minute men, knights, cowboys, Indians, warriors, mountaineers, colonels, gladiators, miners, Vikings, workmen, Zorro mascots, fruit mascots, keg mascots, car mascots, etc. Also, consider the fact that this just scratches the surface when it comes to the people’s mascots – idols.

All of this idol worship is in the face of Exodus 20:4-5 where it tells us:

“Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image (a god to suit your sins), or any likeness of anything that is in Heaven above (constellations), or that is in the earth beneath (man, animals) or that is in the water under the earth.

Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me.”

Look at what Paul said to the people in Acts 17:22-27 while confronting them at Mars Hill:

“Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, Him declare I unto you. God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that He is Lord of Heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; Neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though He needed any thing, seeing He giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after Him, and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us.”

In verses 29-31, he adds:

“Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man’s device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men everywhere to repent:

Because He hath appointed a day, in the which He will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom He hath ordained; whereof He hath given assurance unto all men, in that He hath raised Him from the dead.”

Again, sports are just another form of idolatry within the ranks of the apostates.  Oh, how they love their sports, and it shows you just where their hearts are at (Matthew 6:21).  Scripture tells us in 2 Kings 17:33:

“They feared the LORD, and served their own gods.”

In other words, they said they loved the Lord in being His pretended children, but when it came to the truth of the matter, they served other gods, whom they loved more.

Jesus said in Matthew 15:8, “This people draweth nigh unto Me with their mouth, and honoureth Me with their lips; but their heart is far from Me.”

The country is being led literally into Hell, and they give their time, money, and efforts over to idol worship.

“The wicked (them that know to do the right, but chose to do the wrong) shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” -Psalm 9:16-17

Let me give you an example of this in more detail.  Let’s take football worship:  This is where we see full grown men with tights on, getting paid millions of dollars by demoralizing sponsorships, fighting over a pig ball.  This somehow takes precedent over them standing up and defending their own children.  Instead, what do they do through their inactions?  They sacrifice them to Molech by whoring themselves out to their favorite idols (Leviticus 20:5).

Think of this, 70 million babies to date have been murdered by their own government, that is with the permission of these apostates that do nothing but stand by and let their said representatives illegally legislate, as they call it, the murder of children (Exodus 20:13; Matthew 24:12). Also, read the 5th Amendment of the Bill of Rights.

On the other hand, if you ever want to see what motivates these hypocrites and what it is that will cause them to stand up and be counted, look at how they react when their favorite team scores a touchdown.  You can literally hear their praise and worship of their deities a mile away!

Incense in the Bible is representative to the people’s prayers going up to God.  These apostates that occupy these stadiums every Sunday (Exodus 20:8-11), are giving up their counterfeit incense, praise and worship to their idols (players – teams) on the field (altars of Baal, false gods and deities), which the Lord condemns.

“…ye set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense unto Baal.”

Another motivator for these apostates is how they respond when an official on the football field makes a bad call.  Or how about when their favor coach is removed from their favorite team for reasons which they disagree.  This seems to be what it takes; only then will they see where their anger and indignation lies.  Yes, then, and only then, will you see a quick call to action.

In the state of Minnesota, we find that these are also the same idolaters that are too timid to preach Jesus Christ and Him crucified (1 Corinthians 1:23), but they have no problem with taking off their shirts, painting half their bodies purple, and the other half yellow, all the while, shouting as loud as they can with horns on their heads.

Furthermore, Christians are to put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and this unabashedly (Romans 1:16).  In contrast, these apostates will spend $129.00 – 384.00 for a jersey with their favorite players name on it while gloating about.  They do this on top of the fact that the average ticket price that it costs them to get into these games is $329.00.

Bold and proud they are with an awkward smirk about their faces, and with much to talk about before and after the game.

At a popular church outside of Minneapolis (Luke 16:15), every football season, they set up the stage behind the pulpit area as a football field with goal posts, and with cheerleaders to boot.  They promise the apostates sitting in the pews that they’ll cut the service short lest they break into their idol worship.

In other areas of idol worship, these hypocrites have become so dumbed down that they’ll even go so far as to entertain themselves by watching cars go in a circle 500 times.  Really?

How about this one?  Golf.  This is where a little white ball gets knocked around a grass mowed field, and the spectators and television watchers are anticipating how many swings it will take to get that little ball into a little, tiny hole.

Look at what the apostates have become.  Are they ashamed?  Not at all (Jeremiah 6:15).

How could it get any worse?  Well, it does.

Men are now beating each other up to a literal death in the UFC cage matches.  This is just one step away from the colosseums, in which the gladiatorial games (fighting unto death) were played, and where men, women and children were martyred for their faith in Christ.

That is far-fetched, you might say.  Do you say this as if to suggest that history does not repeat itself to those who do not learn from history?  If this is what your thought was, you are sadly mistaken; We, as a nation, are now on this precipice that is in plain view.

A major beer company back in the 1980s in the United States had created an advertisement that stated, “So many Christians, so few lions.”

Open your eyes (Jeremiah 5:21).

By rejecting the One, true and living God and embracing their idols instead, these apostates, in the natural (1 Corinthians 2:14), are willfully being entertained out of their God-given freedoms (rights), and possibly even their own lives (Deuteronomy 28:66).  In the Spirit, they are continuing to gamble with their own souls (spiritual).

Can you imagine these apostates emptying out these stadiums across America (80,000 – 107,000 person capacity), in obedience to the God, that they say they love and serve (Matthew 23:23)?  In just one weekend, they could (Zechariah 4:6) change the course of this nation (Matthew 22:37).  How many evils could be undone if only they were genuine in their professions (Psalm 94:16).

I ask, should not a disobedient nation be judged for this?  Yes, and it is being judged (Deuteronomy 28:63; Jeremiah 5:29).

Even the enemies within are talking.  It has been said by those who mean to conquer this nation, “Now is the time to attack, for Americans have made sports their gods,” and so it is (Deuteronomy 28:50).

How does the Lord respond to such idolaters in the time of their need?

“But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.” –Jeremiah 2:28

When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it. —Frédéric Bastiat 

It is the duty of every patriot to protect his country from its government. —Thomas Paine 

If ever a time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess highest seats in government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.  —Samuel Adams 

Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the Government’s purposes are beneficent. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in the insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding.  —Louis D. Brandeis

Matthew Louis Gaetz II is an attorney and since 2017, the Congressional Republican Representative of Florida’s first congressional district.  Prior to his House seat, he was a member of the Florida House of Representatives from 2010 to 2016.

Don Gaetz, Matt’s father, served in the Florida State Senate from 2006 to 2016 and was the President of the Florida Senate from 2012 to 2014.  Late in 2023, Don Gaetz decided he would again run for Florida Senate, and has expressed an eagerness for a “spirited campaign.”  In 2004, Don sold Vitas Hospice Services, later accused of Medicaid fraud by the DOJ, for close to half a billion.

In 2023, Matt was well known for being the holdout with Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) in the 15^th vote for Speaker Kevin McCarthy.  However, he and Boebert did not cast a vote for anyone else which actually lowered the vote McCarthy needed by two and gave him the win.

Gaetz filed the motion to oust Kevin McCarthy for not keeping his promises.

The Congressman has now endorsed Kevin McCarthy as a replacement for Rona McDaniel as Chair of the RNC.  McCarthy only voted with the Constitution 50% of the time.

While addressing rumors about his son potentially running for governor in 2026, Don clarified, “Matt’s not pursuing any run for governor. He’s pushing forward tackling budget and spending problems in Washington and fighting for term limits.”

Really?  Term Limits?  That’s a lie.

Matt Gaetz is promoting a Constitutional Convention via Mark Meckler’s Convention of States (CoS), which is heavily funded by the Koch organizations.  He claims the only way to get congressional term limits and a balanced budget amendment, is with another Article V convention.

Term limits and a balanced budget are the catch-all lies for the uninformed electorate.

Both would have dangerous unintended consequences.

Meckler’s Article V convention will not be limited as he claims.  Globalist Council on Foreign Relations member, Robert George sits on the board of CoS.  He has already rewritten the Second Amendment in our unalienable Bill of Rights.

Personal Life

From Business Insider comes a tell-all story about Matt from a former high school classmate, Erin Scot, when both attended a wedding rehearsal dinner of one of their friends. Scot tells of Matt showing an inappropriate cell photo of a woman he was bedding at the time.  In 2021, the House Committee on Ethics investigated numerous accusations against Gaetz, including allegations of sexual misconduct, drug use, and involving the congressman showing colleagues “inappropriate” images on the House floor.

In August of 2021, 39 year old Matt Gaetz married Ginger Luckey, eloping with her to southern California for a private ceremony on Catalina Island.  He married while being investigated by the Justice Department as part of a probe into an alleged sex trafficking ring and in an ongoing probe into an alleged sexual relationship with a 17-year-old minor, which he denied.

Gaetz appeared to have found an ally in Florida’s Seminole County tax collector, Joel Greenberg, donating $1,000 to one of his campaigns, and promoting him for higher office in an interview.  “If Joel were to run from Seminole Co, I think he’d become the next congressman from the 7th district,” Gaetz told a Florida radio station in 2017.

But the Congressman  had come under the microscope after his close friend Joel Greenberg was arrested twice in early 2021.  Gaetz was investigated for three distinct crimes: sex trafficking the 17-year-old; violating the Mann Act, which prohibits taking women across state lines for prostitution; and obstructing justice.

According to various news reports, Greenberg told investigators that he saw Gaetz and others have sex with the same 17-year-old he pleaded guilty to sex trafficking.

This news was aired weeks after Gaetz’s former close friend, Joel Greenberg, who sources said agreed to cooperate in the federal probe into Gaetz, was sentenced to 11 years in prison after pleading guilty to crimes including sex trafficking of a minor and introducing her to other “adult men” who also had sex with her when she was underage. Greenberg agreed to provide “substantial assistance” to prosecutors as part of their ongoing investigation.

No charges were filed against Gaetz since proving he had sex with and knew the minor was underage could not easily be proven.  Gaetz’ attorneys confirmed the DOJ decision.

In a statement to ABC News, Greenberg’s attorney called the decision not to charge Gaetz “troubling.”

Tucker Carlson interviewed Gaetz after Fox News found out Congressman Gaetz was under federal investigation for playing some role in sex trafficking.  After the interview, Carlson spoke to the audience and said, “That was one of the weirdest interviews I’ve ever conducted.”

Matt’s wife, Ginger Luckey, works as a food industry Analyst and Sales Operations & Enablement for Apeel, which is a company funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.  James Rogers, CEO and Founder of Apeel Sciences is a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader 2020. The company is approaching the global food waste crisis by utilizing a plant-derived solution to prevent waste — a “sustainable” approach to the world’s growing food demands.

Apeel Sciences develops products for USDA Organic Certified and conventional produce categories.  Their mission is to “build a barrier that could be applied to fruits and vegetables using edible materials that could slow down the rate of spoilage.”  The ingredients in Apeel have not been publicly shared and the Apeel label is not on all fruits and vegetables with the coating.

Having purchased California avocadoes with this coating, once they felt soft enough to be ripe, when you cut into them, the center is still hard, but the fruit inside the peel is mushy and often rotten.

Gaetz’ Mugshot

Back in 2008, Matt Gaetz was arrested for a DUI when being stopped for doing 48 in a 35-mph zone.  He was 26 years old at the time, and the charges were dropped. Some say Gaetz has had up to seven DUIs, but the record only shows one. Gaetz didn’t like the fact that he had a mugshot from the first go around.  He promoted efforts to remove mugshots from private websites, and Congressman Greg Steube saw to it in 2018 that mugshots will no longer be available for private websites or pasted across billboards.

Far too many lawmakers rack up speeding tickets.  Matthew Gaetz, R-Fort Walton Beach, 32, has been cited for 16 tickets from 1999, to 2014, including one for driving 60 mph in a 35-mph zone on Christmas 2011 in Jackson County.

Gaetz and LGBTQ

Congressman Gaetz will tell you he’s anti-LGBTQ because he claims he’s against “drag queen library hour” with children.  However, while in the Florida legislature, Matt succeeded in promoting and passing adoption for LGBTQ individuals.

The Republican Party of Florida is allegedly against any grooming of children in their schools.  Yet in 2018, Congressman Gaetz was telling Florida’s Okaloosa Stemm Academy Speech and Debate Class (sixth through eighth graders) why we have to be tolerant of people who don’t fit into societal norms.

Here is the full Facebook video.  I’ve transcribed the first minute of Gaetz’ talk:

“Two men and a woman, maybe it’s two women and a man.  I don’t believe you deconstruct that fundamental institution, but I also think, that in society, we have to be tolerant of people who don’t fit societal norms.  So, I broke with many in my own party, and I authored legislation, to strike from state statues, the ban from gay adoption.

“It is my view that if two loving people were going to create a home that would be safe for someone and would take them out of foster care or would take them out of an environment where they were less safe, then I didn’t think government should stand between a child and a forever home, even if that forever home was with a gay couple.  So again, I think this is a generational issue.  I think younger people are less judgmental on those questions and so I’m proud to advance rights in an area that’s very pragmatic putting people in a forever home.  But I have not signed up for the deconstruction of the family, the traditional family as an institution in America.”

Last August, 2023, Gaetz promoted his National Prayer in School Act saying that the bill will protect the right to pray in schools and stop “degenerate LGBT” propaganda.

Yet, Gaetz is responsible for the bill to allow LGBTQ+ to adopt in Florida.

Betraying Homeschoolers

The following four-minute video exposes how Matt Gaetz betrayed homeschoolers.

In 2015, Florida legislator, Matt Gaetz abandoned orphans, betrayed homeschoolers and threw religious freedom under the bus.

A lower court had stricken the ban on gay adoptions.  The amendment to the legislators was simply, “Do you believe it’s right for homosexuals to be able to adopt children? Yes or No?”

Rep. Gaetz added an amendment to the vote, “Do you believe homeschoolers have the right to adopt children? Yes or No.” 

Legislators didn’t want to be thrown under the bus for voting against homeschoolers and the bill passed. Homeschoolers were never limited from adoption.

Gaetz used homeschoolers as bait and switch to promote the LGBT agenda. He chose to add the amendment to the homosexual amendment so that it would get passed, and it would deny the rights of the State of Florida to challenge the lower court ruling of whether or not homosexuals have the right to adopt children at the State Supreme Court level.

Legalizing Cannabis

Gaetz’s interest in medical marijuana dates back nearly a decade, when he was a member of the Florida House of Representatives. Well before he would gain national attention for his support of Donald Trump, Gaetz carved out an unusual reputation as a Republican who wanted to liberalize marijuana laws.

In 2018, Gaetz, Dr. Jason Pirozzolo and Halsey Beshears were united in their love of politics, travel and beautiful women.  Their other mutual interest was Florida’s $1.2 billion medical marijuana industry.

In 2014, Gaetz co-sponsored the first state effort to legalize medical marijuana.  Don Gaetz, who was then serving as president of the Florida Senate said he was “being pummeled” by his son about supporting it.  However, other reports have suggested it was Don Gaetz who wanted cannabis legalized.

The day Gaetz’s measure was up for a final debate and vote in Florida’s House of Representatives, both Pirozzolo and Beshears were on the floor.  Beshears was a fellow member of the legislature who joined in the support and Pirozzolo, an Orlando hand doctor and pilot was there serving as the “physician of the day for lawmakers.”

In 2016, Gaetz sponsored another measure in the Florida Legislature to expand on it, allowing near-death patients to use non-smokable marijuana of all strengths and doses.

By the time Gaetz was in Congress in 2018, he introduced legislation that would increase the number of entities who could do research on cannabis.  The legislation matched what Pirozzolo’s group was promoting to expand research.

Five months later, these men met in the Bahamas.

In 2022, Gaetz filed an amendment that would promote research into the therapeutic potential of psilocybin mushrooms and MDMA as alternatives to opioids for military service members through an annual defense bill.  He was seeking to attach the amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). It would build upon another cannabis-focused amendment that was already approved by the House Armed Services Committee.

Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) called for a DoD-led study into the efficacy of cannabis as an opioid alternative. Matt wanted to broaden that language to cover psilocybin and MDMA.  (See Marijuana Moments)

Forbes reported how legalization of cannabis was moving through the states, but only two of the five states with legalization bills, passed the initiatives.

In January of 2018, I wrote an article about the health consequences of pot smokers in response to the Colorado legalization of marijuana.  The effects are overwhelmingly dangerous. Today’s pot is far stronger than it was 20 years ago.  The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration over 20 years found that the level of THC or tetrahydrocannabinol, marijuana’s main psychoactive ingredient in the marijuana samples they seized, rose from about 4 percent in 1995 to about 12 percent in 2014.

The legalization of pot will lead to young people freely using it.

The downside is that society ends up paying for the results.

Climate Change

When Matt Gaetz was first elected to Congress, he turned heads in early 2017 by promoting the abolition of the Environmental Protection Agency.  He now sits on the Climate Solutions Caucus.  He actually drafted a resolution which he hopes will be the Republican answer to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal.”

Gaetz tells his constituents and fellow Republicans that “earth is warming, and we should be focused on solutions.”

“I don’t think there’s a scientific debate left to be had on if it is happening,” Gaetz said.

“I also think history is going to judge very harshly climate change deniers, and I don’t want to be one of them.”

Interestingly enough, when Republicans sought to expel Gaetz late last year, AOC came to his defense.

Pensacola News Journal reported, “Gaetz said federal government must fund more university research into global warming while also boosting the budgets of NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to study the issue. He added federal facilities should adopt solar energy.

“Other ideas Gaetz will put forward in his “Green Real Deal” include eliminating regulations that he said block more hydroelectric dams from being built, calling for carbon sequestration by pumping carbon dioxide underground into dried up oil wells and protecting U.S. innovation in green technology from intellectual property theft by other countries like China.”

Co2 is a plant food.  We need it to live! Co2 is not causing climate change.

Conclusion

Conservative? Or Denizen of the Deep State?

I wasn’t sure if Taylor Swift would power the Chiefs to victory in the Super Bowl, but I am completely certain that that Barack Hussein Obama is the key to understanding the fate of Joe Biden. In our new report, The Super Bowl of Elections, I look at both candidates in this presidential election year. It’s Trump Vs. Obama.

Biden has never been a player. He has been a front man all along.

America’s Survival, Inc. had published documentary evidence of Barack Hussein Obama’s communist connections back in 2008. Arizona Senator John McCain, who win the GOP nomination, wasn’t interested in bringing any of that to the public’s attention. He lost an easily winnable race against Obama. In 2012, when Senator Mitt Romney won the nomination and ran against Obama, Joel Gilbert released a popular documentary “Dreams from My Real Father,” drawing on our material and going into substantial detail about Obama’s Marxist roots.

We argued that the right strategy to defeat Obama was to expose his Marxist views, including the role of communist Frank Marshall Davis in molding Obama’s political philosophy. But top Republicans disagreed. GOP “strategist” Karl Rove told Republican donors, “If you say he’s a socialist, they’ll go to defend him. If you call him a ‘far out left-winger,’ they’ll say, ‘no, no, he’s not.’” Rove said that Republicans had to “adopt a respectful tone” in criticizing Obama.

Hence, we got Obama for two terms and then, after a conspiracy was launched to destroy President Trump, the election was rigged to impose Obama’s vice-president, Joe Biden, on the nation.

Trump’s possible return to power threatens to further expose what national security expert J. Michael Waller, in his new book, Big Intel, calls the infiltration of the FBI and the CIA by communist agents.  In this extraordinary book, Waller describes his own interactions with a Soviet/Russian spy within the FBI by the name of Robert Hanssen and the failure by the FBI to follow-up on the damage that was done – and which continues.

Waller even had a laptop of messages from Hanssen and received “material of an extremely sensitive nature” from the spy. “Separately, two teams of FBI special agents came to visit me,” He said, “but they didn’t seek the laptop.”

At the time, Waller, the former Annenberg Professor of International Communication at the Institute of World Politics, was trying to educate national security professionals on the techniques of communist infiltration in the U.S. Government.

“What the FBI didn’t want to know” about Hanssen is one of the headlines from this new book. But the CIA didn’t want to know, either.

Even if Biden loses in 2024, the communists never give up. They had several tricks up their sleeves when Trump won in 2016 and they can pull any number of ploys should he win again. We should know that by now.

It was Obama, at the end of his first term, who assured Vladimir Putin of Russia in a “candid” private conversation with his puppet Dmitry Medvedev that he would have more “flexibility” to accommodate Russia during his second term. Then, in 2014, Russia staged its first invasion of Ukraine.

Obama, at the end of his second term,  launched Russia-gate against the incoming president, Trump, and visited Chinese President Xi in what the communist media described as “veteran cadres” discussing the future of communism.

Then, as Trump was preparing to run for his second term, China unleashed COVID, enabling swing states dominated by Democrats to rig the presidential election against Trump through mail-in voting.

It was all coordinated in the capitals of Russia and China and arranged through the Obama presidency and subsequent Obama apparatus, now in control of the Biden presidency.

So whether Biden stays or goes, it’s Obama in control.

Despite all the conspiracy theories by the MSM and their anchors, all of whom have mental constipation and continue to barf Biden won, the 2020 election counting process was the dirtiest, most massive fraud I’ve ever seen since I started learning about election fraud back in 1993.  Fair and equal elections have been stolen from us since the 1960’s.

I’ve written so many columns on this over the decades but the Big Steal in 2020 finally got the attention of tens and tens of millions of voters.  If one thinks the 2022 election (selection) process was fair, they would be badly mistaken.

BREAKING: Abe Hamadeh Files Reply in Motion for New Trial In Arizona Attorney General Election Lawsuit – FILING INCLUDED, Feb. 26, 2023.  280 vote “win” for another lying, cheating Democrat.  If you do read that article, I hope it makes you very angry.  Hamadeh filed an appeal in Sept. 2023:  “Although the trial court believed the Arizona Attorney General’s race is “one of the closest elections in Arizona history and perhaps the history of the United States” and that there was critical, potentially outcome determinative evidence withheld by then Secretary of State Katie Hobbs and Maricopa County that could prove Abe Hamadeh received more votes for attorney general than Kris Mayes, it nonetheless denied Hamadeh’s Motion for a New Trial on the specious grounds that election contest statutes are exempt from due process, and that the government can withhold evidence.”

In AZ, their Court of Appeals says it’s perfectly fine Arizona’s government can withhold evidence.  Absolutely beyond sickening.

MORE FROM KARI LAKE’S LAWSUIT: 25,000 Ballots Added To Maricopa County’s Vote Totals AFTER Election Day, Dec. 11, 2022 (Lake is running for the Senate and if the same fraud is pulled on voters in 2020 & 2022, she will lose.)

Do ignore the “overturn the election” propaganda.  You can’t over turn an election that was “won” based on fraud.  Hamadeh was cheated the same as I was in ’94 & ’96 in California when I ran for Congress.  Even though people said I should run again I said I will NOT as long as electronic machines and scanners are used to count the vote.

Court refuses to take up Hamadeh’s bid to overturn AG’s race results, Aug. 23, 2023 – The AZ “Supreme Court” sided with fraud.

Election investigator wins lawsuit over 120,000 missing voters – Far fewer people registered to vote in one state than there were ballots counted, Dec. 26, 2022 – “American voters soon may be getting an answer to what happened to the 120,000 people in Pennsylvania who allegedly voted in the 2020 election, but now cannot be found.

“Her “documented evidence showing that Pennsylvania’s 2020 general election results show that there were 120,000 less voters registered to vote in Pennsylvania than there were ballots counted,” the legal team explained.  “That’s 120,000 votes that cannot be legally attached to an actual voter,” said Thomas More Society special counsel Tom Breth.”

In a recent column, I was ecstatic to see the RNC had filed a very serious lawsuit in Mississippi:  Finally: RNC Files Bombshell Election Lawsuit, Jan. 29, 2024.  Federal Elections END at midnight on ELECTION DAY.  Those ‘swing’ states (such baloney labels) all violated federal law and a U.S. Supreme Court decision that stands today.  The election is consummated ON a single election DAY.

Which brings me around to this – YES!:  TGP EXCLUSIVE: ELECTION INTEGRITY CHAMPION and AG Candidate Julianne Murray on How She Won Lawsuit Banning Mail-In Voting in Delaware  — VIDEO – “The Delaware Supreme Court ruled on Friday that mail-in voting is unconstitutional in the state.  It was a unanimous decision!”  READ.

As I pointed out in a recent column, we fought like hell to stop the Motor Voter Law in 1993.  State legislatures for years have been violating federal immigration law by allowing ILLEGAL aliens obtain driver’s licenses along with the bonus of signing up to vote with zero verification of anything about the person registering.

ILLEGAL aliens are NOT U.S. citizens.  They have NO right to be on U.S. soil much less vote for elected officials at all levels in OUR country.  But it’s been going on for decades.  Along with this (which I’ve cited so many times): Illegal aliens: declaring war on the enablers (Mine) April 30, 2010:

“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.

“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.”

My fellow Americans – THIS is a direct result of allowing ILLEGAL aliens to fill out census forms.  Make damn sure they get a cut of YOUR paycheck while your family goes without.  GOP gas bags in the Outlaw Congress should have put a stop to this decades ago when they held the majority in both chambers of Congress and the White House.

The Impact of Legal and Illegal Immigration on the Apportionment of Seats in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2020, Dec. 19, 2019 – VERY important read (Emphasis mine).  “Under current policy all persons — not just citizens — are included in the population count when apportioning seats to states in the U.S. House of Representatives and for votes in the Electoral College, which is based on House seats.”

Republicans held the majority in both the House and Senate for 18 months under Trump and NOTHING was done to keep the cancer from spreading.

2010: Republicans take House control.  Republicans: 242; Democrats: 193.  The lying, cheating constitutionally ineligible Marxist, Hussein Obama played president.  But, on a straight party vote, Republicans could have over ridden his vetoes.  Oh, can’t do that.  It might be racist.

1994: Republicans take House control.  Republicans: 230; Democrats: 204.  Another Marxist[1] narcissist, liar, cheat and life long adulterer, Billy Clinton was president.  With a majority, the GOP could have cleaned up a lot of fraud magnets in our voting process.  They did NOTHING.  But, then again, the shadow government wouldn’t be able to shoe-in their selections.  (Majority in Congress from 1899 – 2021.)

The all- important Electoral College.  Now, we have approximately 7 MILLION+ illegal aliens cross the border since fake president Biden was unlawfully sworn into office.  That’s not counting the ‘get aways’.  Of course, a couple million are probably minors, but you can bet your last dime the filthy, dirty bastards in the Democrat/Communist Party USA are going all out to get illegals registered to vote in every precinct possible in this country.

All those illegals voting for free everything, bankrupting hospitals, crushing our health care system, cheating American children out of a real education by overloading ILLEGAL minors from more than 100 countries, free food, housing – you name it.  Who do you think they’re going to vote for? Not to mention the new crime wave from rapists, murderers, thieves and terrorists who’ve crossed our border and unleashed into cities and towns all over this country.

(What I warned about in my Jan.8, 2024 column):  MUST WATCH: Ohio Sheriff Richard Jones Issues Stark Warning After Meeting with FBI Dir. Chris Wray on Illegal Immigration — More Terror Threats Now Than Before 9/11: “It’s Not a Matter of If, It’s a Matter of When”

Texas Democrats ask noncitizens to register to vote, Oct.18, 2018: “The Texas Democratic Party asked non-citizens to register to vote, sending out applications to immigrants with the box citizenship already checked “Yes,” according to new complaints filed Thursday asking prosecutors to see what laws may have been broken.

“The Public Interest Legal Foundation alerted district attorneys and the federal Justice Department to the pre-checked applications, and also included a signed affidavit from a man who said some of his relatives, who aren’t citizens, received the mailing.

“This is how the Texas Democratic Party is inviting foreign influence in an election in a federal election cycle,” said Logan Churchwell, spokesman for the PILF, a group that’s made its mark policing states’ voter registration practices.”

Mexican national pleads guilty to illegal voting in Harris County (TX), Sept. 13, 2018 – “Laura Janeth Garza, a 38-year-old Mexican national, was handed a 10-year jail sentence, a $10,000 fine and will be deported after serving her jail time.”

Think this isn’t in the big states like TX, CA, NY, FL and others?  It sure as hell is and our AG Ken Paxton has been a super charged leader in going after illegals voting.  In Democrat/Communist Party USA states like MN, MI and others, they want illegals voting to keep them in power.

7 Facts About Noncitizens Illegally Voting in Texas – What Texans need to know about the tens of thousands of non-U.S. citizens found on Texas voter rolls.  Jan. 28, 2019

“Texas’ top election official revealed Friday that 95,000 individuals identified in the Texas Department of Public Safety database as non-U.S. citizens have registered to vote in Texas, and 58,000 of those have voted in one or more Texas elections. Here’s what Texans need to know about the Secretary of State’s findings:

#1: No one verifies citizenship of people registering to vote.

“Under current state law, it’s easy for noncitizens to improperly register to vote. The process relies on an honor system — applicants simply check a box on the registration form stating they’re a U.S. citizen. Once submitted, no one verifies citizenship status.

#2: State officials have failed to keep noncitizens off Texas voter rolls.

“Election integrity advocates have long called for adding citizenship safeguards to the registration system. Yet state officials failed to act until testimony before a state Senate panel in February 2018 publicly revealed noncitizen voting as a “significant problem” in Texas.”

State Official: 58,000 Non-US Citizens Voted in Texas Elections, Jan. 25, 2019 – “In an alarming statement, Texas Secretary of State David Whitley revealed:

“For the past year, the Texas Secretary of State’s office has worked closely with the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) to evaluate information regarding persons identified to not be citizens of the United States. This voter registration list maintenance activity is being conducted in accordance with federal and state law to ensure that only qualified voters – who must first and foremost be U.S. citizens – are registered to vote in Texas elections.

“Through this evaluation, the Texas Secretary of State’s office discovered that a total of approximately 95,000 individuals identified by DPS as non-U.S. citizens have a matching voter registration record in Texas, approximately 58,000 of whom have voted in one or more Texas elections.”

“The voting records evaluated go back to 1996, a year after the National Voter Registration Act (also known as the “Motor Voter” law) went into effect requiring states to offer voter registration by mail-in application and as part of driver’s license applications.” Rest at link.

Trump’s people got blown to smithereens between electronic voting/counting machines and human precinct workers who had no problem cheating in 2020.  They’re no better than thieves who rob a bank.

In 1996, B-1 Bob Dornan, a popular GOP U.S. House rep allegedly lost his race to an illegal alien, Loretta Sanchez (who visited the tittie farm known as Hugh Hefner’s palace looking for money for her charities).  Of course, Dornan challenged the vote but somewhere along the way, a forensic analysis wasn’t done and Sanchez served in OUR Congress until 2016.

In 1997/1998 (I forget which year but I still have all the documents) when my late husband and I lived in Sacramento, CA., I went downtown (10 minutes away) to the Birth Records Division, paid the $18.00 to get a copy of Sanchez’s birth certificate.  No record in any form of her being born in Lynwood, CA., a suburb of LA.  I asked the clerk to please do another search.  Nope.

So, off I went down south to the hospital where she was allegedly born and to their city records office.  No birth certificate on file either in Lynwood or LA county.  Oh, yes, I had her parents name as well as her six siblings.

Then off to two big libraries.  Combed through microfilm from the year she was allegedly born in Lynwood, Calif.  and for two years prior and two years after her alleged birth date.  Not a single newspaper had an announcement of birth.  Back to Sacramento to the Birth Records Division and a chat with one of the public servants there.  Left me alone for a few minutes and came back with – Drum Roll! – a nice shiny birth certificate no one could locate only the week before.  Well, imagine that.  Something I did tripped an alarm.

United States Attorney General from 2005 to 2007, Alberto Gonzales, admitted his grandparents could have been illegals.  Could have been?  Well, Alberto, as the U.S. Attorney General it wouldn’t have taken much for you to verify their legal status because if they were, your parents were also here illegally and so you would also be an illegal alien not the fiction called an anchor baby.  Fine vetting job by the U.S. Senate at the time.

Oops:  Report: Ex-AG Gonzales Mishandled Classified Info, Sept. 7, 2008 – “The Justice Department’s inspector general has found that Alberto Gonzales mishandled top secret documents. The 29-page report released today says that the former attorney general risked exposing some of the nation’s top secrets…

“At home, Gonzales acknowledged, he did not put the material into his own safe because he had forgotten the combination, nor does he remember whether he locked his briefcase. In the years that followed, Gonzales stored this information and 17 other documents that the inspector general discovered in a safe outside his Justice Department office that also was not designated as protected for such top-secret material.

“The report includes that the safe was accessible to more than a half dozen Gonzales staff members who did not have clearance to see such material.

“California Congresswoman Jane Harman, who served as ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, recalls that none of the members of Congress who were briefed about the surveillance program – none of them was allowed to take notes or to tell anyone else about what they had learned…

“Gonzales is hardly the only person to get in deep trouble over mishandling top-secret information. Career Justice Department lawyers who have made such careless mistakes have sometimes seen their careers ruined. And former CIA Director John Deutch, who wrote intelligence reports on his home computer, avoided criminal charges for mishandling information when he was pardoned by President Clinton.”  (Gonzales resigned.)

He couldn’t remember?  Must be a kissin-cousin of old Joe Biden.  Could Biden Face Charges? The Alberto Gonzales Precedent Says Not, Jan. 19, 2023.  Gonzales was not indicted, prosecuted or slapped on the wrist.  But, President-Elect Donald Trump had his home raided for political reasons, indicted and now awaiting that trial down in Florida.

From the article above: “There is no evidence to date that Biden had any knowledge that government documents were taken from the White House or any intent to take any government documents from the White House, let alone classified government documents.”  Well, the world has seen all the photos of boxes of scattered top secret classified documents in the basement and the same for classified documents for the withdrawal from Afghanistan in your garage, Joe, right behind your Corvette.  How could he not know they were there?

State GOP presidents should put out a ‘how to’ NOW to every GOP County Chapter in their state to stop illegals from voting.  This week I intend to talk with our Commissioners Court Judge (I voted for him and have spoken with him on a few occasions) for our county.  This is a “red” county but I want to know how up to date the voting rolls are regarding who’s registered in this county.

Found during the Dornan weak investigation on voter registration cards:  A. Martinez, B. Martinez, C. Martinez, D. Martinez, L. Lopez, M. Lopez, N. Lopez – lots of them.  All bogus addresses; empty lots or businesses.  If you’re a precinct captain get some volunteers down to your county clerk’s office and start asking questions.

Judicial Watch has successfully sued many states that have NOT cleaned up their voting rolls:  Judicial Watch Sues Colorado to Force Clean Up of Voter Rolls, Oct. 5, 2020: “In its lawsuit against Colorado Judicial Watch argues:  A 2019 study showed that 40 of Colorado’s 64 counties had voter registration rates exceeding 100% of the eligible citizen voting-age population. The share of Colorado counties with registration rates exceeding 100% was the highest in the nation.”  DC Removing 103,000 Ineligible Names from the Voter Rolls in Response to Judicial Watch, Dec. 8, 2023.  (Americans need to raise hell with their county clerk and county commissioners for failing to make sure elections are fair.  Vote them out of office for being incompetent.)

Judicial Watch Study: 1.8 Million Extra Registered Voters, Oct. 16, 2020 – right before the Big Steal.  That’s another question for your county clerk on Election Day:  How many registered voters in this county?  Number of Republicans, number of Democrats.  I can tell you over the past 30 years, the number of voters and the number of votes cast don’t match up over and over and over around the country.

Good news, good news, great news, Feb. 10, 2024 – Commit today to work in your local elections in 2024. We’re all in this together. “And Great News. Fair Fight appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit, asking the court to overturn True the Vote’s recent victory against them in the Federal District Court. You can read more about the case here.

“Why is this great news? Though we don’t relish the thought of going back to court, the upside is worth it because at the Appeals Court, we can establish case law that will impact the nation.”  See the X quick clip embedded.

Fair and impartial elections is a fairy tale.  Satan’s Pimps are out for Trump’s blood and will do anything to keep him from winning in November as well as highly qualified candidates for the House and Senate.  Only WE can prevent another obscene steal during the upcoming primaries and general election AND stop MILLIONS of ILLEGAL ALIENS from voting in OUR elections.

Candidates and all your supporters, volunteers and donors:  Don’t let the evil doers get away with stealing the primaries and general election again in November.  ILLEGAL aliens must be purged from voting rolls.  Boots on the ground.

Trump’s election team darn well better be prepared this time or it’s game over for our republic.  Yeah, I know you’re tired and busy and so am I, but the global masters are ruthless and evil.  They’re in a real bind right now regarding keeping corrupt Joe Biden as the Democrat/Communist Party USA nominee.  Even their big money donors don’t want that nitwit, Kamala Harris in the Offal Office.  (Harris, like Obama, is constitutionally ineligible.)

After the disastrous Friday DOJ report on Joe Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, he stood in front of the nation in a press conference to tell us that he talked to one world leader in Egypt thinking that leader was from Mexico. Biden made nonsensical gaffes, memory lapses, dropped sentences, misstatements and outright lies.

The DOJ found him to be an “elderly man with a fading memory” who would not be prosecuted for his crimes. In the national interview, Biden said, “My memory is fine.” One major newspaper reported, “Biden’s memory is hazy, fuzzy and dull.”

Immediately, ABC reported the latest poll on Biden’s popularity: 86 percent of Americans do not want Biden for a second term as president of the United States.” He’s too old, too feeble, too cognitively vacant, too unfit, and incapable of handling the rigors of a United States president.

This journalist would add that Joe Biden’s lifetime of lies, plagiarism, racism, sniffing little girls’ hair, and shaking hands with the air has finally caught up to him.

But what blows my mind stems from the fact that no one will pin the “reality tail” on the donkey of Joe Biden’s condition: he’s suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease. If he took a cognitive test today, he wouldn’t score five out of 25 on that test.

How do I know? Answer: my best friend suffers from Alzheimer’s Disease. My best friend has been reduced to the intellect of a six year old. My best friend cannot tell time, does not understand money, doesn’t know what year it is, and cannot remember any friends’ names.

My best friend cannot finish sentences, and many times, starts sentence, but forgets the point, and waits for a minute that you could drive an 18-wheeler through before my friend finishes that sentence.

In other words, my best friend duplicates exactly what Joe Biden shows every time he gets up in front of public without his teleprompter. His press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, lies for him, covers for him, and pretends that he’s got his wits about him. He does not. She will prove the most deceitful and incompetent presidential press secretary in history.

But let’s dig further in Joe Biden’s mental incapacitation. Like I know about my best friend’s Alzheimer’s Disease and ALL of its manifestations, Jill Biden knew three years ago that Joe Biden suffered from Alzheimer’s. He was not fit for the presidency in 2020. That’s now proven to be the case horrifically as to our borders being invaded, our laughingstock standing in the world, our loss of the rule of law, our national opioid crisis killing 100,000 annually because drug cartels enjoy our open borders and free drug distribution into every city in America, our citizens shooting up schools, $100 billion in shoplifting annually, Ukraine and Israel fighting for their lives, national debt accelerating, climate change accelerating, et al.

And now that his disease takes him down a dark road that darkens more and more each day, Jill can’t hide it. But what has she done? Answer: she leads him off the stage when he can’t tell which way to go. She refuses to tell the American public that her husband cannot speak two sentences together than make any sense. She’s the ultimate “power broker” who clings to power over the good of America. In Latin, it’s called “hubris.” In hers and her husband’s situation, it’s called, “Super-Hubris.”

What Biden has done to our country in three short years should be brought up as “Treason.” He’s broken our laws. He’s used the DOJ like a Banana Republic to imprison any opponents. He’s tripped going up steps on Air Force One, he’s fallen of his bicycle, he’s mangled the English language, he’s worse than Pinocchio, and he’s become a doddering, walking cadaver of an old man on the doorstep of death from a stroke, heart attack, cancer or just falling over dead at any moment.

And yet, the mainstream media, and the liberal talking heads make excuses for him. They defend him. They spew so much B.S. as to his “vitality” that it’s no wonder most Americans don’t believe any of them…i.e., NPR, PBS, Scarborough, Reid, Tapper, Meet the Press, Face the Nation, Maddox and a dozen more liberal pundits. They are so full of it, that their eyes are brown!

Right now, in Sanctuary City New York, it costs taxpayers in one hotel with 1,300 rooms, a whopping $500.00 per room, per night for illegal aliens to sleep. Then, we taxpayers must shell out three meals a day for at least $50.00 a day in food. For the rooms, that $650,000.00 of your taxpayer dollars per night for those rooms. Then, the food at $50.00 times two people per room, at 1300 rooms, equals $130,000.00 every friggin’ day those illegal aliens stay in that New York City hotel. Multiply that times 11 million of them across our country!

Right now, we have seen 11,000,000 illegal alien refugees enter our country during Biden’s first 37 months. He invited them. Last month, another 300,000 of those refugees arrived at our southern border to become wards of your tax dollars. How long do you think we’re going to survive this invasion brought to us by Joe Biden who will not be around to see the chaos, the mayhem, the lawlessness, and the outright displacement of the American people from that endless line of criminals, illiterates, and hopeless refugees who arrived from their own countries that they didn’t try to change toward positive situations?

How much longer can Jill Biden pretend? How much longer can Joe Scarborough fake it with sincerity? How much longer can Joe Biden pretend that he’s president of our country? How much longer can his handlers cling to power? How much longer can the American people be fooled into giving their country away?

Oh, and whomever won the Super Bowl…remember that it was only entertainment! It’s more important to win our country back!

Before the discoveries of Columbus, America was considered a new and unsettled land. No one, even the Indians themselves considered it their exclusive domain. It was first come, first served, or “finders keepers” as far as who got to utilize or get to claim a particular plot of land. Indeed, the Indians themselves did not believe in the concept of private property in which land could be claimed as belonging to someone in perpetuity and this is revealed by the constant wars that saw different tribes moving into and out of areas when they were stronger than the indigenous people (into) or found themselves weaker than larger, more warlike tribes (out of).

The Indians treated both life and land as being on loan from “The Great Spirit” to be used for the purpose of living. This is why tribal life changed so little over the centuries. Of course, Indian power struggles went on long before and after the advent of the “white man” though they did recognize certain areas as not being within their sway. One large plot of land in what became Pennsylvania was asked by whites of those Indians whom the whites believed “owned” that land, were told that the land did not belong to that tribe but rather to an ancient warlike people who were giants with red hair! To the Indians, even though these rather ferocious folk were no more, they refused to stake any claim to territory! With most land issues involving the Indians, no one had special right to the utilization of a particular territory unless the tribe occupied it for a continuous period of at least one year.

The term “Native American” is recently created leftist lingo to “prove” that the Indians are now first in line to receive GovMint bennies and deference because they were supposedly the first here. No one really knows who was the first anywhere because of humanity’s mostly nomadic ways over a long periods of time. “Hunter gatherers” – as were most humans before the advent of efficient agriculture – had to move according to the disbursement and/or migration of game and the availability of such food as grew naturally such as nuts and berries. It is just coming to light, and still largely unknown, that ancient advanced white civilizations existed in prehistoric periods and early records reveal that these peoples arrived in the Americas about the same time the “Native Americans!” One such group might well have been the giant redhaired folks in Pennsylvania, but whatever the case, this reveals that the “Indians” have no special place as first in line for the dole or undue deference. Furthermore, it doesn’t matter who was first anyway, as that is of no consequence when it comes to today’s realities except as it can be used to repudiate and disfranchise whites!

In a sort of oblique attempt to dislodge and disinherit “Anglo-America” (as American whites are sometimes called) from ownership of the great majority of the land that is called America, we experience leftist jabs and jabber claiming that we illegally or unfairly took over what rightfully belonged to the Indians – which cannot be the case based on the Indians’ own laws (as we have seen), natural concepts of territorial expansion and biological defense as we see in the animal world. In fact, the White World’s concept of real estate and the ability of individuals to own property is a better guarantee of actual ownership to every individual whatever his or her race or background. Using property laws, people can claim and utilize their property without someone taking from them simply because they are more powerful. Of course, even this “constitutional guarantee” is under attack as our present government moves to remove all such “rights” from white and Indian alike.

On the other hand, the Indians believed that might equals right, and that the most powerful of two tribes, peoples, or alliances of peoples had the right to conquer and subdue the weaker sometimes even to the point of extinction. Thus, in colonial and early American days, any objection to white settlement and expansion had more to do with the immediate influence on the particular tribe than any overarching concept of “ownership.” Indeed, the Indians often sought what they believed to be the strongest white group to help them not only against other whites but against their own Indian enemies. A study of the so-called French and Indian war gives a very clear view of the entire white-Indian situation extant on the continent prior to the American revolution. Eventually, the only real objection was that whites broke their treaties with the Indians providing that the latter were entitled to keep certain lands as their own. This was sometimes true but it often, at least in colonial times, involved a change not in the Indian vs. white situation as the white vs. white situation (see the above French and Indian War!). Eventually, however, it was the tremendous increase of immigration from Europe that occurred after the American Revolution that upset the balance between whites and the so-called “native Americans.” Once America as a government and a people had adopted the concept of “Manifest Destiny*,” the fate of the Indian as far as holding any large tracts of land was sealed. (*see below)

In the beginning of white settlement and expansion, the whites largely respected the right of the Indians to occupy and utilize the lands on which they had settled although in truth, only the French of European settlers seemed to be willing to permit the Indian as an inhabitant of the land with an equal right to maintain his place and way of life. The English and the Spanish saw their own way of life as superior to that of any non-European and as a result, frequently became involved in nasty local wars between both groups. But what has been obscured from this debate today is that the lands under discussion constituted only 3% of the overall land mass of the continent, with the remainder open to “first come, first served” settlement with little objection or pushback as initial occupation occurred. Even much of the aforesaid 3% were areas that the Indians temporarily occupied in their mainly nomadic way of life and to which they never laid any permanent claim. They did not understand the need to claim what, to them, had always been and would always be open to their use and passage. When the Indians did “settle” and were not simply nomadic, they also believed that any land not settled for at least a year (12 moons) was free for anyone else to claim in the “might equals right” understanding of the situation.

Most so-called Indian wars were initially precipitated when the Indians attempted to destroy already well anchored or established white communities without warning or justification. This occurred regularly in New England and northern areas so the colonists felt justified in pushing the Indians out of the way as their settlements expanded. In the Virginia colony, which initially encompassed most of the Middle-Atlantic area westward to Kentucky, there was no proclivity to displace the Indians just because it could be done, and the colonists initially took a defensive posture. It was only when the Jamestown colony was attacked nearly right from the start in 1607, and more massively in 1622 and later in 1644, that the whites lost their patience, and started proactively pushing the Indians back in self-defense and self-preservation. These attacks had nearly decimated the newly created white settlements. But we must also remember that whites themselves were largely to blame for Indian attacks in the so-called Ohio Territory west of the Appalachia Mountains when both the French and the British used Indians as allies in their war! And this also resulted in Indian tribes making war on each other depending upon which side a tribe supported but often that support was given based upon those tribes already considered enemies! This was not an Indian vs. white war, but a war with both Indians and whites fighting each other!

The modern libber narrative that the Indians were a peaceful people who only hunted, lived off the land, and made colorful jewelry, clothes and pottery until the whites came along and massacred them is a total fabrication! The white race has both moral and legal rights to the Western Hemisphere (including America) according to international law (genocide prevention), Indian custom, and the law of nature (basic survival, the requirement to obtain adequate living space for survival, and survival of the strongest and/or fittest), or a combination of these laws or factors. Mankind has, from the beginning, waged war for a place to live. The truly amazing thing is that as the population of people rises, there is less and less of such wars as people learn to live in (reasonable) peace and to find better things to do with our time than kill for a plot of land – at least for now. But whites must stop feeling guilty about the expansion of Western civilization, a matter that has made the life of all mankind infinitely better through knowledge and moral decency.

American Progress (1872) by John Gast is an allegorical representation of the modernization of the new west. Columbia, a personification of the United States, is shown leading civilization westward with the American settlers. She is shown bringing light from east to west, stringing telegraph wire, holding a book representing learning and knowledge, and highlighting different stages of economic activity and evolving forms of transportation. On the left, Indigenous Americans are displaced from their ancestral homeland.

Manifest destiny was a phrase in the 19th-century United States that represented the belief that American settlers were destined to expand westward across North America, and that this belief was both obvious (“manifest”) and certain (“destiny”). The belief was rooted in American exceptionalism and Romantic nationalism, implying the inevitable spread of the Republican form of governance. It was this “spirit” that grew in the early Republic that led to much of the grief that followed.

February 11, 2024

Recently, I wrote a message titled “Babylon the Great Is Fallen.”  In that message, I erroneously stated that “Mystery Babylon” was mentioned in Revelation 18.  Since that time, I’ve done a much deeper study on the subject and there are some things I’d like to clarify here.

First of all, “Mystery Babylon” is not mentioned in Revelation 18, but specifically in Revelation 17.  “Mystery Babylon” describes the “great whore,” upon whose forehead was written “Mystery, Babylon the Great, The Mother of Harlots and Abominations of the Earth.”

 As I have learned, this “Mystery Babylon” is the coming one-world religion… a false religion, worshiping false gods. A great abomination.  As we read in Revelation 17, this “woman” that John saw in his vision was “drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus.”  So, Revelation 17 describes “Mystery Babylon” as spiritual Babylon — a coming together of false religions from all over the world; as I said, a coming “one-world religion.”

This spiritual “Mystery Babylon” is already coming together; indeed, already in place.  You would do well to study on the topics of the “Parliament of World Religions,” or the “World Council of Churches.”  Here in Wisconsin, we have the “Wisconsin Council of Churches,” a branch of the “World Council of Churches.”  But these are not Christian churches; they’re apostate in every respect.  They advocate for everything God considers an abomination, under the guise of “Christianity.”  Be not deceived by them.

Last year, the Parliament of World Religions held their annual meeting in Chicago.  The event opened with a thing called “Sacred Fire: Greeting the Day Prayer and Fire Offering.”  Other sessions during this conference focused on “Bhawana Yog – Guided Meditation.”  Many sessions were held addressing the topic of combating “Climate Change,” there was a session called “Seed The Earth Altar in the Women’s Village,” a session was held titled “Going Beyond Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.”  And not to mention the one titled “The Spear Within – The Staff is Passed to the Feminine.”  And these are just a few of the sessions on the first day of the five-day event.

The entire convention was replete with sessions on feminism, climate change, pagan rituals, globalism, earth worship — honoring “Mother Earth,” esteeming science over sound theology, “interspecies justice,” which dealt with the worship of animals, transgenderism, homosexuality, and I could go on. Over 8,000 people attended, from more than 95 countries, representing more than 210 different religions.

Please understand, that the entire premise behind “Babylon” has always been a one-world order, a one-world government and one-world religion.  In other words, as we know it today, “Globalism.”  But God Almighty does not embrace “globalism.”  He destroyed the tower of Babel and the city of Babylon because it was wicked, and sought to deceive people, drive them away from the one true Creator of the universe, and ultimately Jesus Christ, our Savior.  But that spirit of Babylon is rising again in today’s world — at an alarming pace.

Today, spiritual Babylon of Revelation 17 is being established through things like the “Parliament of World Religions” and the “World Council of Churches.”  Not to mention, the Roman Catholic pope, standing hand-in-hand with Islam, even as he endorses homosexuality and transgenderism.  We also have the modern American churches, most of which have become apostate as well, with a “form of godliness but denying the power thereof.”  “Making the Word of God of none effect,” through traditions, trends and tactics designed to simply fill the seats by pastors using “soft words,” that tickle itching ears.

No doubt, a one-world religion is coming.  The leadership of the World Economic Forum has even suggested that a new “proper” Bible may soon be written by Artificial Intelligence.  No doubt, this “new Bible” will be all-inclusive, mixing the pagan with the holy, or removing the holy altogether as it will likely teach we must worship and serve created things, rather than the Creator.

But we should also be mindful of Revelation 18, which describes “Babylon the Great.”  This is no mystery.  This is economic Babylon — yet still described and named “Babylon,” and still representing Globalism, a “new-world order,” a “one-world system.”  After the one-world religion is destroyed by God, the economic system of “Babylon the Great” is next.

We read, “Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit…for all nations have drunk the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.”

Here, Babylon the Great is about to be destroyed by God.  But John hears another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins and that ye receive not of her plagues.”  These exact same words were used in Jeremiah 51, when God warned His people to leave the city of Babylon before He destroyed it. God always warns His people of coming judgment.  Through Noah, He warned the people of the world that some might be saved, yet only eight people were.  He also warned the Israelites prior to sending the death angel to Egypt.  He warned Lot and his family before the destruction of Sodom.  He is warning us today.

I don’t know for sure if Babylon the Great is a city, as Scripture tells us, or if it represents a nation.  If it is a city, it will likely be the headquarters of the New World Order, now being assembled by the Globalists.  But whether a city or a nation, it’s a place of great arrogance toward God, with no reverence for God and in fact, a disdain for God.  It’s a place — or a system — where the people rely on their riches, their luxuries and their comfort, and rather than honoring and serving the one true God, they think themselves to be gods.  It’s right out of Satan’s playbook — using the same tactics he used against Eve in the garden — “you shall be like gods.”

Today, so many are just as arrogant, if not more so.  And we’re seeing the characteristics of this “Babylon the Great” of Revelation 18 in the institutions now wielding power over all the world: the World Economic Forum, the World Health Organization, the United Nations — all seeking the dissolution of national sovereignty, the destruction of national borders, the centralization of power and control, and “building back better” after they destroy it all.

But this new world order, this “Babylon the Great,” that the Globalists are building will come to an end in one day.  Indeed, in one hour.  “And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

 “Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, ‘Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city!  For in one hour is thy judgment come.  And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more.”

Let’s read on:  “The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, (can you say “Bill Gates” — or “Pfizer?”) shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, and saying, ‘Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!”

Revelation 18 goes on to describe Babylon the Great’s complete and utter destruction.  I believe we’re reading about the destruction of the Globalist New World Order system.  A system of tyranny, deception and absolute domination and control by the Globalist so-called “elites.”  We also read, “…thy merchants were the great men of the earth; and by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.”

It’s important to note here that the word “sorceries” is correctly translated “Pharmakea” — drugs, chemicals, mRNA “vaccines,” jabs.  All nations have already been greatly deceived by the COVID planned-demic.  Now, they’re planning for “Disease X,” which they tell us they don’t know what it will be, yet they’re already developing a new “jab” to treat it.  How convenient.  No “warp speed” needed this time.  Now, they’re developing the next “jab” to treat an illness that doesn’t yet exist.  And people are buying into this — because they are deceived.

Regarding the destruction of Babylon the Great, verse 20 tells us, “Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.”  And then verse 24, “An in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints and of all that were slain upon the earth.”

Friends, the United States may or may not be “Babylon the Great.”  As I study these Scriptures more and speak with learned Bible scholars, I’m convinced it will be the headquarters of the New World Order.  Still, the United States, I believe, will receive a similar judgment of God.  We’ve committed all the crimes of Babylon the Great, whether you realize it or not.

I believe there are 197 countries in the world today.  The United States sends foreign aid to 180 of them.  Are you aware, that in order to receive this foreign aid, all of these countries must accept, push and promote two things?  Those two things are: homosexuality and abortion.  All nations that accept our foreign aid (via our tax dollars) are required to promote homosexuality and abortion — with the exception of Muslim nations.  They receive our money with no strings attached.

This country used to be a lighthouse on a hill, sending missionaries to the uttermost parts of the earth to share the Gospel to all nations.  We used to defend the oppressed and help the poor.  Now, many of the missionaries we send are spreading the same false gospel they preach in our modern American churches.  A friend of mine once met with a missionary from Africa, who came here to visit, and this man begged us to stop sending missionaries because the missionaries were apostates — preaching a “different gospel” than that of the Holy Scriptures.

We’re no longer defending the oppressed or helping the poor.  Now, we’re sending them drugs, pornography, homosexuality, transgenderism and war instead.  We have become the oppressors, for the benefit of the money our politicians can make from them.

And now, we’re reaping the whirlwind we’ve sown, as we live under a tyrannical regime that imprisons its political opponents, that has destroyed our national security and defense and has instigated an invasion by foreign enemies.  We export sodomy, homosexuality and transgenderism, we kill, rape and abuse our own children sexually, physically and mentally.  We give lip service to advocating for the dignity of women, but then declare that males can be females, if they choose to be.  We declare that 50-year-old men can masquerade as 15-year-old girls and join their swim team; and change clothes and shower with them too.  Because now, 50-year-old men can “identify” as 15-year-old girls and if you think or say otherwise, that’s “disinformation.”

Surely God has sent us strong delusion.  Surely this nation is guilty of sinful pride and arrogance.  America has blood on its hands from the sacrifice of our own children to Molech under the guise of “women’s rights” through abortion; through instigating the devastation of war around the world, and the lies of the “official COVID hospital protocols” that would have made Hitler and Josef Mengele proud.

So many in our land have fallen for great deception.  But as I stated, God always warns His people.  He always makes a way of escape before He pronounces judgment and destruction.  I pray that many will open their eyes today, awake from their stupor and turn back to God.  Open that dusty Bible, get on your knees and pray and seek His face and turn from your wicked ways.  You know what your own personal transgressions are.  Face them, repent from them, and turn back to God.  The Globalist Babylon is coming; we can’t escape it.  But we can be rescued from it and rejoice when God Himself squashes all the plans and schemes of the wicked kings of the earth in just one hour’s time.  Understand the times we’re living in, warn others, stand strong and don’t back down.

Valentine’s Day, also called Saint Valentine’s Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is celebrated every February 14 in North America and various parts of South America, Europe, and Asia. Though it is a day celebrating romance and love, often with candy, flowers, and other gifts of affection, it originated as a Christian feast day honoring a martyr named Valentine.

According to church historical tradition, Valentinus (the Latin version of Valentine) was a pastor who ministered in Umbria, central Italy, during the Roman persecution against Christians in the 3rd century. As he preached the gospel, he secretly protected believers from the government by hiding them.

Valentinus was eventually placed under house arrest for his evangelistic efforts and helping Christians, which was a serious crime. He was also condemned for disobeying the order against marrying Christian couples, allowing the husbands to escape conscription into the Roman army. Roman soldiers were in short supply at this time, and it was the view of the Roman government that married men would be ineffective fighters and therefore a hindrance to the security of the empire. This account also mentions that in order to remind husbands of their vows and God’s love, Valentinus would cut hearts from parchment and give them to these persecuted Christians.

During this time of imprisonment, Valentinus had the opportunity to discuss his faith in Jesus with Asterius, the judge overseeing his case. The judge put Valentinus to the test and brought to him his adopted daughter, who suffered from blindness. Asterius challenged Valentinus, saying that if he succeeded in restoring the girl’s sight, he would grant whatever request he made. Valentinus, praying to God, laid his hands on her eyes, and the child’s vision was restored.

Astonished and overwhelmed with joy, the judge asked Valentinus what he wanted. Valentinus called on Asterius to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, asked that all of the idols around his house be removed and destroyed, that he fast for three days, and that he be baptized. The judge did as Valentinus asked, and as a result, his household of more than 40 family members and servants also believed and were baptized. Asterius also freed all of the Christian prisoners under his jurisdiction.

Valentinus continued to preach the gospel and minister to the faithful, but was arrested again. This time he was taken to Rome to be judged by Emperor Claudius II Gothicus (268-270 AD) himself. Claudius took a liking to Valentinus and may have been lenient with him until he sought to convince him to receive Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Becoming enraged, Claudius refused and commanded him to renounce his faith, or else he would be condemned to death by being beaten with clubs and beheaded.

During his last days, Valentinus often thought of his family and friends (including the daughter of Asterius). Since they were forbidden to visit, they developed a unique way of sending messages to each other. He would squeeze his arm through the bars in his window to reach the violets that grew outside. Each day, after picking a heart-shaped leaf, he would carefully pierce it with a message like “From your Valentinus.” He would then send it to his loved ones by way of homing pigeons supplied by his family. Toward the end of his life, the message changed to a simple, “I love you.”

Even after enduring tortuous punishments and offers of wealth and position along with his freedom, Valentinus refused to renounce his Christian faith and turn away from the Lord he had grown to love. He was executed outside the Flaminian Gate on February 14, 269 AD.

For Valentinus, love was more than the mushy, gushy stuff many think of today. It was above sentimental feelings or infatuation. It was deeper than sexual attraction or physical desire. It was a love strong enough to face the rugged times of life, suffering, severe persecution, and death. It was the kind of love that moved him to risk the danger of preaching the gospel, even to those seeking his hurt, and giving refuge to Christians in the face of the wrath of the Roman government out to destroy them.

This love came from the forgiveness, joy, and peace Valentinus received from God through faith in Jesus Christ, the greatest act of love for humanity lost in sin and separated from God and true life, just as the apostle Paul wrote more than two hundred years before:

“Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult in hope of the glory of God. And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.” (Romans 5:1-10)

Just as the blood that makes the heart red gives life to the body (Leviticus 17:11), so the blood of Jesus Christ shed on the cross for sinners grants forgiveness of sin, the gift of reconciliation with God, and eternal life to all who trust in Him.

For those who celebrate Valentine’s Day or not, remember the faithfulness of Valentinus through his acts of love and refusal to renounce Christ unto death, and that true love is more than a feeling that comes and goes. It is not based on transitory things like circumstances, the weather, or personal possessions.

True love is what comes from God through His Son Jesus Christ, who redeems with His precious blood all who trust in Him (1 Peter 1:17-19). And those who have received this love of God should share it through proclaiming the gospel and acts of love for others throughout the year, even if it means putting the other person’s needs, desires, and wishes first or going out of your way to accept, respect, and forgive (Ephesians 4:32).

I’ve asked NWV’s to run this old column because inflation is absolutely killing all but the very wealthy.  It is critically important we educate our fellow Americans about this issue, so please do share with your email lists and all social media.  Manipulation of the currency and the “Federal” Reserve – something the majority of our adult aged population knows absolutely nothing about.

The fools in state legislatures continue to raise the minimum age.  Like throwing gasoline on a fire.  McDonald’s CEO says fast food chain will focus on affordability amid outrage over menu hikes, Feb. 5, 2023 – Customers have blasted the fast-food giant in recent months amid a spike in menu prices, including a nearly $18 Big Mac combo.  Carl’s Jr:  Cheeseburger deluxe + medium French fries:  $11.24 in Midland, TX.  Yes, for one person; I checked menus.

It’s not just the “fast food” industry but all sectors.  We the People are being taxed into poverty by our city, county, state and federal elected “servants”.  People need higher and higher wages just to break even while the solution – not another Band Aid – is there but Congress does NOT want their candy store to disappear.

Raise the Minimum Wage to $100.00 An Hour

By: Devvy
November 17, 2013

“When all government, domestic and foreign, in little as in great things, shall be drawn to Washington as the center of all power, it will render powerless the checks provided of one government on another and will become as venal and oppressive as the government from which we separated.” —Thomas Jefferson to Charles Hammond, 1821. ME 15:332

Every few years, the same bleeding-heart members of the Democratic/Communist Party USA start beating the drum to raise the minimum wage. Factually challenged bureau-rats in some state legislatures also want to continue punishing the employer by passing higher minimum wages in the private sector. Those mental midgets claim this will benefit the worker. Nothing like twisting logic upside down to get more votes and it’s not just confined to Marxists. This is what a Republican had to say a few years ago when raising the minimum wage was the rage in the Outlaw Congress:

“Whether people like it or not, we need to go ahead with it,” said Rep. Mike Castle, R-Del., who supports the idea. “There’s a general agreement among Republicans (opposing the raise) that “maybe we don’t like it much, but we need to move forward with it just for political reasons.” So, you see, this isn’t caring about the little guy, it’s about politics and votes.

Where does the U.S. Constitution, Art. 1, Section 8, give Congress the authority to dictate to any private employer what they can and can’t pay an employee? America is a free enterprise system. A system driven by competition and hard work. Do most Americans understand what Fascism is? Fascism is defined as a system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls; oppressive, dictatorial control. For the federal government to centralize the labors of the common man under laws that dictate socioeconomic controls is to strangle free enterprise and competition.

Poltroons in Congress can wrangle about tax cuts for the rich and raising the minimum wage, but it will NEVER cure the cancer, only prolong it. Those sandbaggers in Congress are the ultimate liars who have led us down the path of slavery and unless the people stop rewarding such deceit with reelection, the game will go on with the losers being we the people. I can tell you real men who birthed this republic would never have allowed any Congress to get away with this type of oppression and the deliberate destruction of a free enterprise system.

As for “tax cuts for the rich”, thieves like Nancy Pelosi, who has a net worth of $58 million bux, might not be financially bothered by paying more in taxes, but the common man is being destroyed by them. Former Congressman Ron Paul introduced several bills in the past that would boost the economy and create jobs through spending. All ignored by those caring Republicans and Democrats in Congress – including Nancy Pelosi and Dirty Harry Reid [D-NV].

It should be noted when Ron Paul introduced the TIPS act to help the very people who make minimum wage and see their tips taxed, there were more than 300,000 service workers in Dirty Harry’s own state of Nevada. Did he support the bill? Not a chance. The bill died in committee – not a single Republican or Democratic/Communist Party USA rat in the Outlaw Congress supported it.

Dec. 12, 2000 – Paul Calls for an End to Withholding Taxes -Congressman calls current revenue system ‘inherently deceptive’

April 4, 2001: Congressman Paul Introduces Legislation to Abolish Withholding Taxes

January 29, 2009: Ron Paul Introduces Tax Free Tips Act – Waiters, waitresses and other employees who receive tips would not pay federal income tax on them.

Why the silence from the thugs who run the SEIU (Service Employees International Union birthed by the Communist Party International) who don’t give a tinker’s dam about their members when those bills were introduced and died? If they cared so much about their workers, they would have fought to get Ron Paul’s bill passed through Congress because those bills – especially the TIPS Act – would have greatly benefited their membership.

As the gluttony of the bloated federal and state governments continues to grow unchecked, the burden of taxation is killing off the middle class; for those with a combined household income of less than $35,000 a year, it literally is living one can of beans to the next. Those ever so benevolent politicians with a Gestapo agency like the IRS to carry out their dirty work, continue to upchuck the only way to help those hard-working folks who really do need a break is to continue raising taxes for more useless federal, state and county jobs that produce nothing and raise the minimum wage level of pay.

Such stupidity actually hurts minimum wage workers. A sure recipe for failure, but then again, most politician’s thought process is driven by campaign contributions and reelection. Politicians tend to be weepy, cowardly, emotion driven creatures who can’t seem to help themselves.

While those same career politicians sell financial poison, the reality of raising the minimum wage tells a different story: Minimum Wages and Unemployment: Case Closed – “In short, the preponderance of the evidence over the last 75 years is that low-skilled jobs (mostly held by the less-educated and less-skilled young and minorities) are extinguished by government wage fixing.”

I have every respect for any individual who gives an honest day’s work for a day’s wage. Traditionally in this country, workers are compensated for their labor according to their skill, education and experience. Minimum wage jobs were never meant to be a ‘living wage’ because those are jobs that generally require little to no experience, i.e. high school drop-outs, unskilled workers, or by college students because of flexible schedules and retired folks looking to supplement their retirement income and stay active. Paying an entry level clerk, a hotel maid or burger flipper $100.00 an hour isn’t going to solve the problem.

Besides the endless confiscation of someone’s hard earned labor via more and more heavy, progressive taxation, the single biggest reason why making the minimum wage $100.00 an hour isn’t the solution, it only feeds the “Federal” Reserve. It’s the devaluation of our currency and the purchasing power of the “dollar” that is the problem. An issue completely ignored by most adult aged Americans in this country.

Sadly, the owned by Wall Street Outlaw Congress did not abolish the unconstitutional “Federal” Reserve six years ago when Ron Paul introduced a bill. Hell, most of them had to be dragged kicking and screaming to even sign on to a bill to audit the “Fed”. As Dr. Edwin Vieira wrote in one of his articles: The Road Not Taken (Nov. 2011):

“Today, America finds herself once again lost in “the yellow wood” of monetary chaos, at a point where “two roads diverge”—

“One road leads to “more of the same”—“monkey business as usual”, as it were, both politically and economically—aimed at propping up domestic as well as foreign zombie banks; subordinating the United States Treasury to the cabals of private financial power-brokers in New York and London; and, one may be assured, expanding the fraud of irredeemable legal-tender paper currency to the supra-national level, with a new “global currency” which will surely strip America of her economic sovereignty, and likely will attenuate if not eliminate her political sovereignty, too.

“We must not be enticed down that wrong road by the illusion that we can convince Congress to reinstitute some kind of traditional “gold standard” that pulls the Federal Reserve System from the pit of its own incompetence, profligacy, and criminality, by somehow returning Federal Reserve Notes to redeemability in gold

“My “Cross of Gold” address to this audience in October of 2010 said all that needs to be said against the substance of proposals of that kind. Of course, I shall be the first to commend the proponents of such plans for their patriotism, imagination, courage, and optimism. But, as General Sosobowski reputedly said when General Browning reviewed the plan for the ultimately disastrous Operation Market Garden: “I am thrilled that your great Field Marshall Montgomery has devised such a plan. I promise you that I shall be properly ecstatic if it works.”

We are too far down the road to ruin brought to all of us by the same incumbents Americans keep reelecting over and over and over. I urge you to take the time to read all of Edwin’s column because he provides the only solution left to us for our very survival.

Unless and until Americans fully understand the disabilities of our monetary system, they will continue to take the road to financial destruction by demanding more Band Aids to “fix” the problem. Of course, this requires an investment in time and the ability to understand the subject matter. While no one likes to say it, tragically, we have tens and tens of millions of adult aged Americans who are so under educated, it’s heart breaking. Graduating high school seniors who read at seventh grade level. We’ve all seen clerks at a grocery or convenience store who can’t make change unless the computer tells them the amount. So sad, but those who have done their homework know it has all been by design.

I knew nothing about the “Fed” and our debauched currency until I was 40 years old when I was handed a book that had a lot of information about it; that’s where my journey began 23 years ago. I read the chapters on the “Fed” and said, what a minute, that can’t be right. The “Federal” Reserve is part of our government. After all, it’s called the Federal Reserve! How wrong I was. Dozens of books later, thousands of hours of reading them, Dr. Vieira’s two volume tome, Pieces of Eight, as well as so many of his speeches, I learned the truth about the central bank. It IS the head of the beast dragging us over the abyss. A ravenous beast devouring everything in its path, sucking the life blood of this country for 100 years come Dec. 23, 2013.

Pieces of Eight: The Monetary Powers and Disabilities of the United States Constitution – should have won a Pulitzer Prize in economics. That two volume set is available at Amazon; every State Law Library received one. Most major law-school libraries received one as well as a few big-city libraries. The cost of that book is about average for law books of the same caliber. If you live near a State Law Library or law school, call and see if you can check out a copy if they have it. The three pieces below are certainly required reading:

• The Federal Reserve System as a Parasite by Dr. Edwin Vieira
  • A Caveat Against Injustice or, An Inquiry into the Evils of a Fluctuating Medium of Exchange By Roger Sherman, 1752
  • Congressman Louis McFadden spoke before Congress in 1933 about the evils of the Federal Reserve System; a very famous speech printed in the Congressional Record. A real eye opener.

If at all possible, get the single best DVD set I’ve ever seen for the cure: The Purse & The Sword. This is an eight hour presentation by Dr. Edwin Vieira. Here are some of the reviews:

“EVERY ONE needs to see this video!”

“A fantastic tool for tea party, constitutional, and home school groups.”

“I don’t know how to give a higher rating to this video. Dr. Vieira explains how the government and the people are to lawfully deal with economic and homeland security issues. He has created a sort of “visual constitution” through which it becomes easy to see how we should be operating as a nation – and where we are failing. Not only is this the best explanation of these processes I have ever seen or read, but he does it with such a common sensical approach that it is easy for anyone to understand it. This video should be shown in every high school and college. It should be played on every public access station in the nation. It should be shown on PBS every week. EVERY ONE needs to see this video!”

A constitutional presentation like nothing you’ve ever seen before with the only solutions if this country is going to survive. If money is tight, pool your resources, get a copy and share. Get your group together and watch it in two hour increments and then go after your state legislatures. You’ll understand why I say that after watching the full presentation.

Power Point Presentation on Lawful Money. This slide presentation was put together by a dear friend of mine. It is an exceptional way to explain our debauched currency to people – especially minimum wage workers. Once they understand the problem, people will realize they’ve not been given the solution (raising the minimum wage), but rather more of the same down the path of ruin. Please do share this with your mailing lists, family, friends and activists. That site is a treasure trove of knowledge: “The documents, presentations, videos and audio recordings on this site are evidence of the unconstitutional and illegal activities engaged in by those holding fiscal responsibilities positions within the General Government of the United States and the Federal Reserve System Board of Governors and management.”

Additionally, this (The US Inflation Calculator measures the buying power of the dollar over time) will help folks understand the value of a dollar. In 1913 (the year the unconstitutional “Federal” Reserve Act was passed) you could purchase an item for $20.00. Today, that same item will cost you $473.03; an inflation rate of 2,215.1%.

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

Freedom is our noble cause. Stay the course.

Stay focused on finding when the problem started so we can all pursue the only solution at this point in time (The Road Not Taken). Folks are going to have some spare time with the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. A perfect time to share this information with family, friends and members of our state legislatures. Forget the thieves, liars and crooks in Congress. It’s too late. We crossed the Rubicon years ago. ALL of them have thrown away our freedom and financial future by not addressing the “Fed” beast and their lust for taxing us into poverty. Now, it’s up to us.

February 10, 2024

When you’re raised on the controllers of the narrative’s history, you view things like war kind of black and white.  There are bad guys and there are good guys, and they fight each other with guns and tanks, submarines and planes.  People die from direct and indirect fire.  Espionage and spying happens in backrooms and shadowy streets, and the side with the best strategy, best fighters, and scariest weapons usually wins.  There’s a mental imagery for this, and the media blasts it in movies and books and magazines.  We envision things like mushroom clouds, mangled bloody bodies, low flying airplanes, dirty orphaned toddlers, etc.

So it’s hard to tell people WWIII is not in the future, it is now.  Modern warfare has less to do with battle lines and territorial conflicts and more to do with controlling the flow of money and redrawing the power lines of people control.  Modern warfare is less about moving boundaries between nations and more about making nations boundary-less. They don’t care about things like “borders” anymore.  World dominion is the goal, not national upheaval.  They’re not declaring war to achieve this, they’re actually committing acts of war to do it.

Modern warfare isn’t rolling tanks down the streets; it uses technology to roll ideology into the masses.  They aren’t bombing the cities and military posts as much as they are controlling the information and infiltrating the mind.  They don’t use war rations, they use things like “inflation” and “shortages”.  There hasn’t been an official declaration of war, and yet today’s weapons of war are prolific and have been actively engaged for years now.

WWIII isn’t coming, it is here.  And until people begin to see that, they will continue to be casualties of this war without a seeming shot being fired.

Humanity’s numbers are being decimated by this ignorance.  They’ve gas lit humanity to think the enemy is a race or a gender or a socio-economic status or a political faction.  How tragic.  The enemy is none of those things, yet it commandeers all of those things to subvert the truth.

At the risk of oversimplifying it, the enemies of God are the enemies of humanity.  The battle is cosmic, but the battleground is earth.  The ignorant are the greatest losers in the current battle because they’re the pawns being used to advance the agenda.

Let’s look at two things today:  the battle on the earth, and the battle in the other dimensions.

The Battle on the Earth

[I’m just going to broad stroke this for brevity.  I encourage you to dig into areas of interest for further understanding.]

Currently in America and the world at large, the attacks can be categorized easily into four areas:

The Mind

Obviously the mind is the seat of thought; thought leads to belief; belief leads to action.  If you control the mind, you control the action.  They attack this on many fronts, the most obvious being indoctrination (via education and employment) and propaganda (via media and all forms of entertainment).  I could write a series of articles on just those two and the various implementations they use.

There are a myriad of subsections to each of those that incorporate things like redefining words, attaching shame and ridicule to belief structures, scorning alternative ideas, and assigning social pressure to anything contrary to the accepted narrative.  Those are actually the more benign methods.

More troublesome than that is their use of chemicals and toxins to suppress the mind, whether it be in the form of legal, prescribed, and/or illicit drugs or through fluoride in the water (a known developmental neurotoxin), or through genetically modified foods, or environmental toxins, etc.  The alarming statistics of autism, childhood mental disorders, and geriatric diseases like dementia, Alzheimer’s, etc. have startling connections to environmental toxins and heavy metals, and yes, vaccines.  These aren’t accidental occurrences.  One or two may be coincidental, but the epidemic-like increasing numbers cannot be.  (What are they spraying in our skies 24/7??)

And even more nefarious than those are the technology advances they boast about through phones, frequencies, and other scientific and medical procedures.  I’ll spend more time on this one in the near future.  The obvious conclusion is if you cripple the mind or in some way interfere with its ability to function properly, you have a mentally handicapped population unable to assess the threats against it and/or form a resistance and response to it.

The Body

They need the body weak for three primary reasons:

1. A weak body makes one unable or less willing to engage in the battle. How many adult Americans (percentage wise) can actually run a block without being winded, or can even run a block at all?  How many can walk several miles, carry a load, move heavy objects, breathe without difficulty?  It’s hard to have a militia to stave off enemy combatants with weak-bodied people.  Have you looked at America’s health statistics vs. other countries?  Maybe compare today’s American’s health statistics with the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s….

2. A weak body consumes mental energy and distracts so that one’s attention is constantly engaged in fixing the ailments of the body. A weak body leads to a compromised mind.  If one’s body is weak or compromised, it’s hard to learn a trade or skill that is beneficial because one is consumed with trying to fix the body.  When one needs healing, mental energy goes to doing just the basic tasks at hand that are necessary.  There is no energy or fortitude to look at problems outside of the immediate need(s).  Current events, community threats, and national needs have to wait because there is not enough energy to dedicate oneself to educating and responding.

3. A weak body is a tool for a medical industry that makes the body dependent on a system governed by those who want total control, and robs the person(s) of valuable financial resources for other things. When one is consumed with “fixing” ailments, diseases, disorders, one’s finances are used to support the system in control.  When that system is beholden to the slave masters wanting world dominion, the system produces exactly what the slave master tells it to.  Healing cancer, disease, disorders, etc. will not fill their coffers, so they produce poisons to alleviate one symptom while creating ten more.  The system has no interest in root cause or true healing.  This cycle intensifies until the person is totally incapacitated or dead.  A transference of wealth has happened because the persons’ money fed the system and left them penniless and broken.  The system grows while the people languish and die, robbing their progeny of an inheritance and worse, it encumbers or steals resources that could otherwise be used for the betterment of humanity and/or to fight the true enemy.

Unity

If we can’t get along with one another, we can’t fight a common enemy.  It’s that simple.  Apparently their tactics are that simple as well:  continually pit people groups against one another.  If it’s not race it’s gender.  If it’s not gender it’s income.  If it’s not income it’s religion.  If it’s not religion it’s education.  If it’s not education it’s employment.  The list goes on and on.

Humans have a lot of weaknesses, because humans (as a general rule) tend to glide through life without much intentional understanding.  People like the path of least resistance.  But people are woefully emotional.  Emotions are most people’s Achilles heel.  So they stoke emotional outbursts by thinly veiled public drama that if reason prevailed would show it for the inciting charade it is.  Then they control the public narrative so reason cannot prevail.  Emotions do the rest, from mobs and riots, to slander, and almost eventually always into violence (especially when it’s funded by the puppet masters).

It’s embarrassing how easily humanity allows this manipulation.  The end result is we refuse to work together for the good of humanity, because we’ve foolishly agreed upon an emotional delineation of pitting people into modern caste systems.  It’s selfish and foolish and plays right into the scheme of those in control.

The solution is quite simple, but emotions don’t want solutions, they want revenge.  Selfishness doesn’t want solutions, it wants accommodation and preference.

Freedom

Freedom is the antithesis of control.  People cannot be free for this battle for world dominion to be successful.  So laws must be made, and freedoms must be destroyed, and people must be forced (through fear and coercion and deceit and bribery and a whole host of other things) to choose to give up personal freedom and to force others to do the same.

They’ll have a hard time with this one in a direct attack.  So they attack it on smaller fronts with clever cliches like “we’re all in this together” and “do it for your neighbor” and “it takes all of us” and “end racism” and “words hurt”, etc.  The emotional ones will fall lockstep into this and agree that we must force some rules that restrict freedom for some exaggerated harm coming down the pike.  That’s how we get things like the misnomer Patriot Act, the TSA, amnesty, vaccine mandates, etc.  It is almost always based on fear.

There are solutions to each of these categories that I’ll address in coming articles.

The Battle in Other Dimensions

Because the average American (or person in general) is fighting battles in any or all of the four categories above, they are unable to see the battle actually has very little to do with them personally and is actually an epic battle of entities of far more power than flesh and blood.

It’ll take me a few articles to lay this battle out.  Remember how I explained the Supreme God created a group of gods before He created humans?  Psalm 82 calls them the “Divine Council” and Scripture refers to them as the “sons of god”.  These sons of god, (lesser gods), rebelled against God by interfering in the affairs of men.  This interference wrought the landscape on earth that is laid out by ancient texts, specifically Mesopotamian texts and in books not canonized in the Bible, as well as the Bible itself.

For most of human history, there was no one Bible, there were ancient scripts passed down from the scribes.  We know them as books, but to those before us they were a collection of the history of man on the earth.  That history included the interactions of men and women with the gods.

[I realize even addressing this is going to get me the coveted label of “heretic” (humor there), but I’m a seeker of truth AND a lover of God, and I have followed the truths to this point, which will offend mainstream Christianity that has neatly packaged a religion that creates more questions than it answers. If you’ll humor me and just look at the evidence of these things, you may not draw the same conclusions as I have, but you may be able to see, perceive and understand some things that actually help you navigate some otherwise difficult waters.  Just at least look at some of the evidence? 🙂 ]

Without getting into the history (right here and now), the basic point is these “sons of god” were rejected by God.  (Read Psalm 82)  They appealed to Enoch to intercede for forgiveness for their transgressions, and after petitioning God, Enoch had to report back to them that there would be no forgiveness for them (Enoch 11-12).  Their sins were not forgiven by God, and they would be punished.  From there the battle escalated, with humanity the continual casualty of this war.

Many books and historical documents lay out that these gods are all the gods that the Bible lays out.  Moloch, Baal, Ashtoreth, Chemosh, etc. are just renames of older gods.  The famous ten plagues of Exodus were specific plagues to reveal to the world (Egypt was the world power at the time) the inability of the pantheon of gods to thwart the Supreme God.  God took on the gods of the most powerful nation at the time, and removed His people from their midst by defeating the Egyptian gods.

These gods trace back to Nimrod and the famous Babylon of old.  Do you find it interesting at all that the gods on the landscape of Genesis are the same ones alluded to in Revelation?  How can you explain the mighty angel’s words at the close of Revelation 18 that in Babylon was found the blood of “prophets and saints and all who have been slain on the earth”?  Were all the prophets and all the saints of God murdered in Babylon?  Is EVERYONE who has been slain on the earth from Babylon?  Or is it describing the seat of the religion that slaughtered the men and women of God, and is responsible for the slaughter of countless men and women?

Ancient Babylon was the seat of the ancient gods who set up government, religion and culture in opposition to the Supreme God.  The religion they set up was the worship and adherence to the sons of god, rather than the Supreme God.  Their names change with the region and languages they’re in and from.  Look at the days of the week and the names of the months.  Each was named after a Roman god or its equivalent.  Each Roman god is another name for an Egyptian god, for a Greek god, for a Norse god, for a Phoenician god, for a Babylonian god…

Enter Christ.  The true Son of God.  He took His disciples to what He called “the gates of hell” in the region of Caesarea Philippi, the northern part of Bashan at the foot of Mount Hermon.  Mount Hermon is the place the Watchers (sons of god) descended to earth to commit their first crimes.  Bashan was considered the gateway to the underworld.  Dr. Heiser calls Bashan “ground zero for Old Testament geography”.  He devotes a whole chapter (33) to Bashan and its history Biblically in his book The Unseen Realm.

In Jonathan Cahn’s book The Return of the Gods, he carefully lays out the origin of words in Scripture that depicts these gods.  He addressed the clash of the gods against the Son of God and the resulting war against the message His followers brought.  Their gods were being challenged and they responded with violence, killing the Christians in an attempt to negate the message that there was a God higher than the ones they worshiped.  He told a fascinating story of the Roman pagan emperor Julian the Apostate who attempted to restore the Oracle of Delphi’s temple in 362 A.D.  He sent for their version of a prophet to get guidance for the restoration.  The recorded answer was deafening:

“Tell the emperor that my hall has fallen to the ground.  Phoebus [the god Apollo] no longer has his house, nor his mantic bay nor his prophetic spring; the water has dried up.”

Christ had defeated the gods on their own turf, and the fallout was tremendous.  We find ourselves in 2024 where the ancient gods who went underground have resurfaced with a vengeance.  The scene on the earth has changed since they were dethroned, and their tactics have changed.  This is what we’ll get into in the coming weeks.

In my next article I’ll expound on this and attempt to link current events to this battle, as well as speculate on why it has crescendoed so incredibly in the last couple decades.

February 9, 2024

A group of anti-communists led by Trevor Loudon has announced a “Conservatives 4 Ukraine Speakers and Media Bureau” to counter pro-Russian propaganda from the likes of Tucker Carlson. I support them wholeheartedly. My fear is that “Team Joe” is doing far more damage to Ukraine than Tucker could ever do.

“Team Joe” is the name of the Joe Biden for president campaign. He makes anti-Russian sounds and goes through the motions of appearing to support Ukraine over Russia. But he fails to ask Congress to support a victory by Ukraine over Russia. Instead, he is bleeding Ukraine, as it struggles to survive almost daily bombardments from Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

On another level, we must consider the fact that the modern Democratic Party is a vehicle for the same “values” that Russia has tried to foist on the rest of the world, ever since the Russian revolution of 1917. (The “ex-communist” Russian President Vladimir Putin, however, now postures as a Russian nationalist and religious conservative).

Looking back at the history of socialists in the West, Putin himself declared that “…the[U.S.] Democratic Party is traditionally closer to the so-called liberal values, closer to Social Democratic ideas, if compared to Europe. And it was from the Social Democratic environment that the Communist Party evolved.”

Viewed in this light, the war over Ukraine is less over freedom versus socialism than what form of socialism Ukraine will be saddled with. Will Ukraine be ruled by Ukraine or by Russia, its previous master? Ukraine wants to join the EU, the European Union, a socialist monstrosity.

I always favor national sovereignty in a case like this, and Ukraine deserves our support. But under “Team Joe” Ukraine stands no chance of winning. That should be clear by now.

Almost two years ago Speaker Mike Johnson voted against a Ukraine aid bill, saying, “We should not be sending another $40 billion abroad when our own border is in chaos, American mothers are struggling to find baby formula, gas prices are at record highs, and American families are struggling to make ends meet, without sufficient oversight over where the money will go.”

Such an argument is striking a chord with conservatives, whatever you may think of Tucker’s pro-Putin propaganda show.

Johnson received an F on the Republicans for Ukraine congressional report card.

But such a grade is unfair. Johnson favors a victory by Ukraine over Russia but is also concerned that “Team Joe” does not favor victory. He says, “We want accountability, and we want objectives that are clear from the White House.”

There is a very real problem of Russian influence in the conservative movement, and Tucker is the personification of that problem.

In our report, The Big Lie Driving Russian Influence in the Conservative Movement and the Destruction of Ukraine, we examine the operations of the Russian intelligence service going back decades, fomenting anti-Semitism and the present war in the Middle East. We examine how American TV personalities such as Tucker Carlson and Stephen K. Bannon echo Russian propaganda about Ukraine.

They are playing into Putin’s hands, in much the same way that Biden did, when he indicated that a minor Russian “incursion” into Ukraine wouldn’t matter much. That is what has led to Ukraine’s predicament.

The additional problem for conservatives favoring aid to Ukraine is that we now have evidence of how the Biden Administration is trying to thwart an Israeli military victory over Hamas. In this case, however, Israeli Prime Minter Benjamin Netanyahu is standing up to Biden.

If Biden doesn’t favor a victory by Ukraine or Israel, and that’s where the evidence leads us, and if the United States is going broke in the process, what good does additional aid do?  That is the problem House Speaker Mike Johnson is contemplating.

And since we all know that Tucker has taken the side of Russia in this war, what good does it do to bash him when Ukraine should have won this war with the right weapons months ago? Those were the weapons Biden denied Ukraine.

The Trump position, “We want people to stop dying,” makes more sense as the war continues. Under Biden, negotiations make sense until a new president of the United States can take office and review U.S. policy toward Russia.

Trevor Loudon says, “Allowing Russian forces to defeat Ukraine will almost certainly lead to World War III. Putin’s victory would empower China, Iran and North Korea, who are all targeting the US and its allies.” This is true. The fallacy in this argument is that Ukraine won’t be allowed to win under “Team Joe,” our enemies continued to gather strength under Biden, and Trump’s position of immediate negotiations and even a cease fire is the only way to buy time and save the lives of brave Ukrainians.

In the good ole days when the average American was smarter than the average politician, citizens would defeat Nikki Haley in the GOP Presidential race just because they know that millions in her campaign funds come from far-left democrat donors and over 70% of her primary voters are also democrats. Republican voters have had it with democrats voting in republican primaries, for just this reason.

But these days, after decades of massive false political propaganda and Marxist Educational indoctrination at all ages, not to mention the government controlled and censored news media and social media platforms, the average American voter is far less certain about anything they believe.

Haley lost Iowa and then New Hampshire, both by wide margins, where she told her fans she was sure to defeat Trump. That was bad enough, but this week, she accomplished something never accomplished before in political history – she lost the Nevada primary where she was the only active candidate allowed to appear on the ballot.

CNN reported the night of the Nevada GOP Primary, that Haley only received 30.5% of the vote in a primary where she was the only active candidate on the ballot. The other 69.5% of GOP voters voted against her, 63.2% of them for “None of these candidates.” In other words, she ran unchallenged and still lost by almost 26,000 votes, having received only 21,199 votes herself.

As of this writing, Trump leads Haley in all national polling by an average of 74.3% to 18.1%. At this moment, Trump leads Haley in her home state of South Carolina by 60% to 29.3%. The official Nevada GOP primary holding all the delegates for the state is a caucus event, where Trump will appear essentially unopposed.

But even though Nikki Haley is losing every single GOP primary in grand fashion, do not expect her to drop out of the so-called “race” anytime soon. The plot to make her the 2024 GOP Presidential nominee never included her winning any of the primaries.

Instead, the plot is very similar to Biden 2020, when Biden remained in the race in 3^rd place behind Warren and Sanders until the party met behind closed doors to bribe Warren and Sanders into dropping out to make room for bumbling Biden who was polling at 30% at the time, just like Haley now.

The difference in the Haley Plot case is, they can’t talk, bribe, or threaten Trump into leaving the race. Instead, the Haley camp is working around the clock with democrat operatives and financiers to force Trump out of the race, most likely by getting a fraudulent conviction for an “insurrection” that never happened.

As I write, the US Supreme Court is hearing oral arguments over whether or not to allow six Colorado voters to deny all Colorado voters the right to vote for the candidate of their choice, in this case, a former President and the landslide-leading candidate for the 2024 GOP nomination. In other words, leftist Trump-haters are trying to toss democracy off the cliff just because they know they can’t defeat Trump by any legitimate process.

The Haley Plot is to remain in 2^nd place until Trump is eliminated from the race by way of a fraudulent conviction in some corrupt court, or a bullet if necessary. Then, like Biden 2020, with Trump out of the way, Nikki could become the presumptive GOP nominee as the only candidate still standing.

The longer Haley stays in the race, loss after loss after loss, the more it confirms that she intends to become the nominee without winning a single primary anywhere.

As for the Supreme Court today, members of the court have only two choices, and only one of those choices is constitutional, or even safe.

The high court must affirm democratic processes by refusing to allow a handful of Trump-haters to keep him off the ballot for an alleged “crime” that never happened. The only other option is to burn the Constitution once and for all and at that point, we will have an entirely new ballgame here.

Texas has already put the court on official notice that when they act in an unconstitutional manner, the states and the people have no obligation to follow any direction from the court. In just a couple weeks, Texas closed its border after the O’Biden administration had done all it could do keep the borders open for the past three years.

While moronic democrats continue to falsely claim “it’s republicans” who don’t want the border closed, it’s republicans in Texas who closed them, and democrats in DC who sued them for it. The same Supreme Court hearing the Trump ballot case today, issued a 5-4 ruling allowing O’Biden to tear down the Texas border fences. But so far, the O’Biden regime appears afraid to do so, showing at least some signs of intelligence.

As of today, our country is dangerously hanging by a fingernail on the verge of a total constitutional collapse, as the court will decide whether or not to uphold the Constitution today or burn it once and for all.

These are indeed interesting times.

Don’t fall victim to the Haley Plot though. She’s a fraud, a 14th “anchor baby” citizen not even eligible for the office, and a proud graduate of nazi Klaus Schwab’s Young Global Leaders program at his maniacal WEF, just like Trudeau in Canada.

Democrat voters are easily fooled, but Republican voters, not so much! Nikki is losing everywhere because most republicans care about the facts.

• Does the federal government have the legal authority to regulate anything it wants?
• The Department of Energy has decided they can regulate your dishwasher and washing machines.
• In the case of Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy, it appears the DOE may have bitten off more than it can chew.

Have you noticed how often the government of the United States decides how you should live your life? It seems everything from food and drugs to the lightbulbs in your home are regulated by Uncle Sam. And whenever some bureaucrat deems it necessary, they simply roll out another “rule” or “regulation” to clamp down on the American people. It seems though, that one of those agencies may have bitten off more than they could chew, at least according to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. In the case Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy the court decided that one of the DOE’s rules was illegal, but was it unconstitutional?

Regulatory State

When Congress decides it wants to exercise a power not delegated to it by the Constitution, it usually reaches for the General Welfare Clause:

The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States;

U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 1

They seem to forget the fact that this clause empowers Congress to collect taxes, not to regulate. They also seem to ignore that it only allows Congress to collect taxes for the general welfare of the United States, the very same proper noun used in the Tenth Amendment.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

U.S. Constitution, Amendment X

Does this clause of the Constitution allow Congress to do whatever it thinks would be good for America? Not according to James Madison.

If Congress can apply money indefinitely to the general welfare, and are the sole and supreme judges of the general welfare, they may take the care of religion into their own hands; they may establish teachers in every state, county, and parish, and pay them out of the public treasury; they may take into their own hands the education of children, establishing in like manner schools throughout the union; they may assume the provision for the poor; they may undertake the regulation of all roads other than post roads; in short, every thing, from the highest object of state legislation, down to the most minute object of police, would be thrown under the power of Congress; for every object I have mentioned would admit the application of money, and might be called, if Congress pleased, provisions for the general welfare.

Bounty Payments for Cod Fisheries, [6 February] 1792

Looks like Mr. Madison was correct. Once Congress believed they could apply money indefinitely to the general welfare, they took over everything, including regulating dishwashers and washing machines.

They’re Coming for Your Dishwashers

In 2022, the Department of Energy tightened the regulatory regime surrounding America’s dishwashers and laundry machines. Petitioners sued. The Department’s actions were arbitrary and capricious. So we grant the petition and remand to the Department.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

What led up to the 2022 decision by the Department of Energy to tighten regulations for dishwashers and laundry machines? Why did several states including Louisiana, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Montana, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Utah file suit?

In 2018, the Competitive Enterprise Institute (“CEI”) submitted a petition for rule making to the Department of Energy (“DOE” or the “Department”). … According to CEI, the Department’s burdensome energy regulations made dishwashers incapable of, well, washing dishes. CEI asked the Department to define a new class of dishwashers under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975, Pub. L. No. 94-163, 89 Stat. 871, codified (as amended) at 42 U.S.C. §§ 6201 et seq. (“EPCA”). CEI proposed that the new class should be comprised of dishwashers with a normal cycle duration of under one hour. … CEI anticipated that the new class might offer better performance than currently available machines in part because it would not need to comply with the energy and water restrictions otherwise applicable to consumer dishwashers today.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

Apparently the Competitive Enterprise Institute thought of a way to get around the DOEs restrictions on energy and water usage. The petitioned the DOE to make a rule that would create a new class of dishwasher that would not need to comply with DOE’s energy and water restrictions.

DOE responded favorably to CEI’s petition. It published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“NPRM”) under the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA”). … The NPRM proposed the new dishwasher class that CEI had requested. … In October 2020, the DOE adopted a final rule defining the class as “standard residential dishwashers with a cycle time for the normal cycle of one hour or less from washing through drying.” … (the “2020 Dishwasher Rule”).

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

The DOE adopted the rule proposed by CEI. Apparently, DOE liked the rule so much, they created another rule for laundry machines, or what most of us call washing machines.

On its own initiative, the Department then decided to take analogous action on laundry machines. (“2020 Laundry NPRM”). … DOE explained that both of its 2020 rules “re-affirmed the Department’s recognition of cycle time as a valuable consumer utility.”

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

Does the DOE thinks it’s valuable to consumers to minimize cycle time in such appliances? Apparently the DOE is more interested in how long an appliance runs than how well. So far so good, until the Biden Administration takes office.

On the day of his inauguration, President Biden issued an Executive Order directing DOE and other agencies to reconsider certain rules, including the 2020 Dishwasher Rule and the 2020 Laundry Rule. … A new final rule, which we call the Repeal Rule, was issued in January 2022. It revoked both the 2020 Dishwasher and the 2020 Laundry Rules.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

In come the politicians, apparently overriding the rules of the bureaucrats, this time to the detriment of the people who actually purchase and use dishwashers and washing machines. Then a group of states decide to stand up and, if not come to the rescue, at least push back on the repeal of these new rules.

A group of States, led by Louisiana, petitioned our court for review of the Repeal Rule

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

What was the basis of the state’s lawsuit? What was the Fifth Circuit asked to decide?

Now the merits. While the States make various contentions, we need only consider one: that the Repeal Rule is arbitrary and capricious.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

Arbitrary and Capricious

Part of the law Congress passed to regulate how agencies create rules and regulations is known as the Administrative Procedures Act or APA.

Section 706 of the APA requires courts to “hold unlawful and set aside agency action, findings, and conclusions found to be . . . arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law.” 5 U.S.C. § 706(2).

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

If a court finds that an agency acts in an arbitrary or capricious way, or beyond their legal authority, it must hold those actions as unlawful, therefore deciding for the plaintiff who sued.

The Repeal Rule falls short of these standards. We (1) discuss the Department’s inadequate consideration of important aspects of the energy conservation program. Then we (2) discuss the Repeal Rule’s reliance on purported legal error.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

Things aren’t looking so good for the Department of Energy at this point.

The 2022 DOE was required to reasonably consider the relevant issues and reasonably explain its decisions in the Repeal Rule. … It failed to do so. Specifically, it (a) is unclear that DOE has statutory authority to regulate water use in dishwashers and clothes washers. But even if DOE has water-usage authority over the relevant appliances, the Department (b) failed to adequately consider the negative consequences of the Repeal Rule, including the substitution effects of energy-and-water-wasting rewashing, prewashing, and handwashing. And in all events, the 2022 DOE (c) failed to adequately consider the impact of the energy conservation program on “performance characteristics.”

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

Basically, the court found that the DOE tripped over itself in two primary areas; their legal powers and the impact of the Repeal Rule. Let’s look at these individually.

Statutory Authority

In promulgating the Repeal Rule, DOE stated that its energy conservation program must promote “water conservation” and regulate “water use.” See 87 Fed. Reg. at 2684–85. But it is unclear how or why DOE thinks it has any statutory authority to regulate “water use” in dishwashers and washing machines.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

First, there is the question of whether or not the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 delegates to the Department of Energy the authority to regulate water use.

The EPCA allows DOE to regulate energy use by some products and water use by others. …

The EPCA does not appear to contemplate overlap between the products subject to “energy” regulation and those subject to “water” regulation. Energy first. The EPCA defines “energy use” as “the quantity of energy directly consumed by a consumer product at point of use.” … And it defines “energy” as “electricity[] or fossil fuels” or “other fuels.” … Dishwashers and laundry appliances obviously use “energy” as the EPCA defines that term. So it makes sense that DOE can regulate the amount of energy used by those appliances.

But the statute defines “water use” as “the quantity of water flowing through a shower head, faucet, water closet, or urinal at point of use.” … And the four explicitly enumerated water products do not use “energy” as that term is defined in the EPCA. That explains why Congress said “energy use, or, . . . water use.”

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

So first, the court found that the Department of Energy did not have the statutory authority to regulate water use in these appliances under the EPCA. (See the Constitutionality of the DOE for more on this.) What about the second problem the court found?

Impact

Even if DOE could consider dishwashers’ and clothes washers’ “efficiency” in both “energy use” and “water use,” the 2020 Rules likely promoted greater efficiency in both categories than the Repeal Rule. Assuming both energy conservation metrics are on the table, the States argue, and DOE does not appear to dispute, that one important aspect of that problem is whether appliance regulations actually reduce energy and water consumption. Yet the administrative record contains ample evidence that DOE’s efficiency standards likely do the opposite: They make Americans use more energy and more water for the simple reason that purportedly “energy efficient” appliances do not work. … So Americans who want clean dishes or clothes may use more energy and more water to preclean, reclean, or handwash their stuff before, after, or in lieu of using DOE-regulated appliances.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

Strike two for the Department of Energy. It appears that not only has the DOE gone beyond its statutory powers, but in the name of being energy efficient, their latest rules actually promote the use of more energy and water to do the same job.

Court Decision

According to the court, since the Repeal Rule was outside of the DOE’s statutory authority and did not fulfill the requirements of the policy, that policy is arbitrary and capricious, and therefore did not comply with the Administrative Procedures Act.

In sum, it is unclear that DOE has any statutory authority to regulate water use in dishwashers and clothes washers. But even assuming the Department has that authority, the Repeal Rule is arbitrary and capricious for two principal reasons. (1) It failed to adequately consider appliance performance, substitution effects, and the ample record evidence that DOE’s conservation standards are causing Americans to use more energy and water rather than less. (2) It rested instead on DOE’s view that the 2020 Rules were legally “invalid”—but even if true, that does not excuse DOE from considering other remedies short of repealing the 2020 Rules in toto.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

While the striking down of the Repeal Rule is a good thing, there’s one very important point the court missed.

Constitutionality of the DOE

While the court looked at the statutory power of the Department of Energy, they never looked at its constitutionality. Congress stated the purpose of the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 within the legislation

The purposes of this chapter are-

(1) to grant specific authority to the President to fulfill obligations of the United States under the international energy program;
(2) to provide for the creation of a Strategic Petroleum Reserve capable of reducing the impact of severe energy supply interruptions;
(3) Repealed. Pub. L. 106–469, title I, §102(2), Nov. 9, 2000, 114 Stat. 2029 ;
(4) to conserve energy supplies through energy conservation programs, and, where necessary, the regulation of certain energy uses;
(5) to provide for improved energy efficiency of motor vehicles, major appliances, and certain other consumer products;
(6) Repealed. Pub. L. 106–469, title I, §102(2), Nov. 9, 2000, 114 Stat. 2029 ;
(7) to provide a means for verification of energy data to assure the reliability of energy data; and
(8) to conserve water by improving the water efficiency of certain plumbing products and appliances.

42 USC §6201

Look all you want, but you will not find the power to conserve energy supplies, improve energy efficiency, or conserve water as a power delegated to the United States. You may be thinking, but what about the international energy program, that was probably done via treaty, which makes it the supreme law of the land, right?

No. The Supremacy Clause states:

This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land;

U.S. Constitution, Article VI, Clause 2

Only treaties made under the Authority of the United States are the supreme law of the land. The United States does not have the authority regulate energy or water supplies. Therefore, any treaty that may have been signed is not within the authority of the United States, not the supreme law of the land, and as an unconstitutional act, void.

In fact, since regulating energy is not a power delegated to the United States, the legislation that created the Department of Energy is an unconstitutional act, and therefore also void.

Conclusion

So while the court came to mostly the right conclusion, their failure to consider the constitutionality of the Department of Energy leave the American people with the false belief that the Department of Energy is legitimate and that their regulations have the force of law. This in spite of previous court decisions to the contrary.

An unconstitutional act is not a law; it confers no rights; it imposes no duties; it affords no protection; it creates no office; it is in legal contemplation as inoperative as though it had never been passed.

Norton v. Shelby County :: 118 U.S. 425 (1886)

Rather than dealing with the unconstitutionality of the Repeal Rule, they merely turned it back over to the illegal agency that created it in the first place.

For the foregoing reasons, the petition for review is GRANTED. And the matter is REMANDED to DOE for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

Louisiana, et. al. v. U.S. Department of Energy

This is why it’s so important for you to read and understand the Constitution for yourself. Not only so you can recognize these unconstitutional acts, but so you can prepare yourself to defend and assert your rights, including the right to have the supreme law of the land faithfully enforced.

“What is the Old World Order and why do we want to replace it with a new one?”

What you are about to read will make perfect sense to some of you.  Others, not so much.

A worldview is…well…the way an individual views the world.  WHAT you believe shapes the way that you process information.  It is the filter through which you run every thought and every issue.

New Ager Oprah Winfrey calls it YOUR Truth…as if two opposing viewpoints could both be true at the same time.  Up cannot be down.  Left cannot be right.  Inside can never be outside.  Once you walk IN you are no longer OUT.  Once you are UP you are no longer DOWN.

It is basic science and logic.  Provable.  Testable. Verifiable.  Your PERSPECTIVE, (viewpoint), can change, but UP can never be down and down can never be up.

A man can never be a woman and a woman can never be a man.  No matter how much one BELIEVES it to be true.  Bruce Jenner can NEVER be a woman…no matter how much HE or YOU believe he is.  Simply believing something does not make it so.

There are many different worldviews.  We call them things like science, religion, philosophy, but ultimately EVERYTHING is subject to TRUTH.  Here is a simple question we must all ask ourselves…is it possible to BELIEVE something that IS NOT TRUE?  If so, how does one determine what is true?  Science alone?  Can Science be biased?  Can Science be bought?  Did the masks REALLY work?  How do you know whom to believe?

This treatise is written with what is often called a BIBLICAL worldview.  I believe the Bible is TRUE and that it is the foundation of all human knowledge.  That is why it is called a BIBLICAL worldview.  It is the way I VIEW the way the world functions.  At the heart of a Biblical worldview is a CREATOR.  An all powerful, omnipotent, everlasting, Alpha and Omega, beginning and end, King of Kings, and Lord of Lords.  That belief system shapes EVERYTHING I do.

Americans used to believe that.  We taught it to our children in school…every school…public schools…government funded schools.  From the founding of this nation.  Thomas Jefferson who penned the Declaration of Independence also wrote,

“God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the Gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever…”

Could it be that the belief and worship of Jesus Christ was at the heart of the OLD WORLD ORDER and that it is the focus and goal of the Luciferians to insert LUCIFER as the head of this NEW WORLD ORDER?  A government where Jehovah no longer rules in the halls of Congress, but children of the Devil usurp power and authority granted specifically to CHRISTIAN men?  Read Mathew 5.

What was it John Lennon sang…imagine there’s no heaven…isn’t that at the heart of the NEW WORLD ORDER?

Imagine there’s no heaven. It’s easy if you try. No hell below us. Above us only sky. Imagine all the people living for today.

Imagine there’s no countries. It isn’t hard to do. Nothing to kill or die for.  And no religion too Imagine all the people living life in peace.

You may say I’m a dreamer.  But I’m not the only one. I hope some day you’ll join us. And the world will be as one.

Imagine no possessions. I wonder if you can.  No need for greed or hunger. A brotherhood of man.  Imagine all the people sharing all the world.

Klaus Schwab couldn’t have said it any better.  The Synagogue of Satan now rules America.

The New World Order isn’t new at all.  It is nothing more than a continuation of the battle spoken of in Psalm 2.

“Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing.  The Kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take council together against the Lord and His anointed.”

From the beginning of time Satan has tried to steal what didn’t belong to him.  A Kingdom.  He is still wrestling for it today.

Christianity, and it’s influence, is almost non-existent in our government today.  In fact, all the power of God’s people has been surrendered to the Luciferians.  The American government is tyrannical.  It operates at the behest of Satan and his minions.    A coup has been underway since 1947 when the SCOTUS ruled Jesus un-Constitutional.

There are only two teams on the field.  Team Jesus and team Lucifer.  Team Lucifer is now winning because Team Jesus has refused to engage in the battle.  As Bob Dylan warned us in the 60’s…you gotta serve somebody.  Who is the American government serving?

Most Americans don’t believe in the Devil…not really…not in an-advancement-of-evil kind of way. The Luciferians have programmed us to focus on politics, as if it were the OTHER political party that was evil.

But they BOTH are evil.  BOTH serve Satan.  Jesus told us that “you are either for me or against me.”  BOTH parties serve GOVERNMENT.  Both parties have agreed to govern apart from the Kingship of Christ.

Luciferian government supports baby murder, homosexuality, transgenderism, government theft through taxation, an unjust justice system, invasive wars, government sanctioned murders, pornography as free speech…just to name a few.

America was once the “shinning city set on a hill” that gave light to the whole world.  But we have allowed them to put a bushel basket over the light.  If America goes down, we will descend into unimaginable darkness.

Lies, deception, and fear are the instruments of Lucifer.  Are their three more appropriate descriptions of the weapons the American Government is displaying today?

Charles Finney Warned us nearly two centuries ago:

If there is a decay of conscience, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the public press lacks moral discernment, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the church is degenerate and worldly, the pulpit is responsible for it. If the world loses its interest in Christianity, the pulpit is responsible for it. If Satan rules in our halls of legislation, the pulpit is responsible for it. If our politics become so corrupt that the very foundations of our government are ready to fall away, the pulpit is responsible for it.

Jesus is the Light of the World.  We must turn the light back on in America.

In the last two weeks, three young Army soldiers suffered instant death while sleeping in their barracks in Jordan.  Bomb blasts injured 40 more soldiers.

“The three citizen-soldiers from different corners of Georgia all died in  weekend drone strikes on a U.S. base in Jordan near the Syrian border that also wounded more than 40 others. Families of the slain reservists said they were shocked when uniformed military officers came to their doors to deliver the news Sunday,” reported Army Times.

“I just hope and pray no other family has to go through this,” Francine Moffett, the young soldier’s mother, said Monday through tears at the dining table of her Savannah home. “It takes your heart and your soul.”

Reason reporter Mathew Petti reported, “The Killing of three American Troops Was an Avoidable Tragedy.  The U.S. base on the Jordanian-Syrian border has long been “strategic baggage.”

“American blood has been drawn in a Middle Eastern war for the first time in a while. President Joe Biden has promised to “all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner of our choosing.” Members of Congress have called for a harsh response, with some demanding a full-on war against Iran.”

Here is the BIG question never asked by the mainstream media: why do we have some 20 military bases standing on Syrian and Iraqi soil?  Why are our troops put in harm’s way? What’s the point?  Who benefits? How does any of it protect America?  Answer: in reality, all those Middle Eastern countries hate us staking out our bases on their land.  It’s their turf, it’s their Muslim heritage, we’re the Great Satan, they don’t want us there.

Would you want Jihadist Islamic bases planted all over American soil?  Do you really like that we’ve now imported 4,000,000 America-hating Muslims into America?  Have you visited Islamic Detroit, Michigan?  It’s  no longer an American city. Muslim prayer calls five times a day!  Women in hajibs and burqas.  Arabic spoken only. Arabic worm writing everywhere.  Mosques like fortresses everywhere.  No American  flags flown anywhere in Islamic Detroit.  It’s a “multicultural” wonderland, but if you’re not Muslim, you’re not welcome.  Same in Minneapolis, Minnesota in their “Somaliland.”

So why are you, the American taxpayer, shelling out trillions of dollars over the years for 750 military bases in 80 countries around the world?  Who are those bases protecting? What possible advantage does it bring our country when our southern border has become a gateway for every terrorist in the world that hates America?

In 2024, we’re facing massive terrorist threats, and yet, Joe Biden invites every terrorist in the world to walk across our borders—-while, at the same time, he and/or his handlers did NOTHING to protect those three American soldiers living on a base in a foreign country that doesn’t want us there.

Who thinks we need 750 bases in 80 countries?  Can you give one single, rational reason for such impositions and incursions on those  80  countries?  While we’re $35 trillion in national debt, why are we wasting more money and 450,000 military personnel on those bases?  What’s the point?  What’s the end game?  Who benefits?

Answer: the corporate heads at the Military Industrial Complex.  They  feed on war.

Those M.I.C. guys made millions on Korea.  They made billions on Vietnam.  They made billions on Desert Storm. They made trillions on Afghanistan and Iraq in 20 years of those bogus wars.  You can bet they are licking their fingers for a full-out war on Iran.

Right now, Vladimir Putin has killed over 200,000 young kids on Russia’s  side and Ukraine’s side of that insane war.  Journalist Tucker Carlson sat down to have an interview with Putin.  That would be like sitting down with Adolph Hitler.  Did anyone ever interview Hitler on why he slaughtered millions of people?  Does Putin possess some kind of Evil-Power to kill that many young men and women?  My view?  Putin should be brought to trial for war crimes and hung by his toes until he  dies.  Putin equals Hitler.  All of them were sick minds:  Mao, Stalin, Mussolini.

In many ways, The United States of America faces some nasty realities. President Lyndon B. Johnson killed 2.3 million innocent Vietnamese in his 10 year war. Johnson killed 58,479 of our finest men and women in Vietnam.  All of it based on the lie of the “Gulf of Tonkin Incident.”   George W. Bush pushed the lie of “weapons of mass destruction.”  Bush, Obama and Trump got 7,500 of our troops killed in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Not to mention P.T.S.D. and suicides into the tens of thousands. Think of all those mothers, and their kids losing their fathers. Think of the fathers who returned with their brains and emotions in meatgrinders.

What possesses such men to kill so many young kids in bogus wars?  Where is there an ounce of morality in those corporate heads at the Military Industrial Complex?  Why do generals allow the insanity to  continue?  Why does our U.S. Congress go along with any of it?

Worse than that, we are being led by Alzheimer’s patient Joe Biden who doesn’t know up from down, or what day it is.  So,  when his handlers tell him to go to war with Iran, we’re going to see more deaths of our finest in uniform.

With 750 bases in 80  countries…what a bunch of war provocation!

Who’s the biggest villain in the history of Western drama? So very many candidates—but certainly one of the all-time bad guys has to be King Richard III… as depicted by William Shakespeare. The monster who murdered the little princes in the Tower of London. Or so they say.

The Globe Theater has announced plans to stage a production of Richard III—with a woman in the title role. The production has already been hit with a wave of protest by an assortment of “disabled activists” who say you have to “live the experience” before you can play the part: only disabled actors need apply.

King Richard’s problem is that the history of his reign was written by his bitterest enemies. Shakespeare was a man of his time: the Tudor dynasty had cast Richard as a villain, and Shakespeare was not about to risk getting beheaded for bucking that narrative. So he wrote up Richard as a scheming, murder-happy hunchback who got what was coming to him.

Some 2,000 years earlier, the Greek historian Thucydides confessed that it was almost impossible for any historian to get down to the absolute truth. He could only do the best he could—because not only are people addicted to self-serving lies, but honestly believe “facts” that aren’t true.

So history is full of fairy tales. Richard did not murder the little princes. He did not betray his brother, King Edward IV. His remains—recovered from burial under what is now a parking lot—show that he did suffer from curvature of the spine. But he was not, in fact, disabled. He lived a rigorous life, taking part in hand-to-hand battles and riding on horseback up and down England in all kinds of weather. And he died fighting.

Yeahbut, yeahbut! He was Richard Crookback, traitor and murderer! Shakespeare said so! Shakespeare’s Tudor propaganda came down to us as “history.” But such evidence as we have strongly indicates the story was not true.

They’re still fighting over it today.

Imagine, if you can, trying to write an accurate history of the time we’re living in today, here and now. Sorting out the truth from all the lies. How do you think Donald Trump would fare, at the hands of Democrat historians? Richard was presented as a deformed monster. Trump would be lucky if that were all they did to him.

But does it matter if “history” simply isn’t true? If it’s nothing but rehashed politics? Some of us still think so! Our beloved leaders argue, “We have to do this now because that happened then!” And then they do exactly as they please and insist they’re on the right side of history.

Another ancient Greek historian, Herodotus, said the Persians became a great nation, builders of an empire, because they taught their children only two things: to shoot straight, and to tell the truth. Some call him “the Father of History.” Others, “the Father of Lies.” Both he and Thucydides would feel at home in today’s melee over “mis-“ and “dis-.”

History can guide us, but only if we let it—and only if it’s true. It can tell us what kinds of policy succeed and what kinds of policy fail. And why, and how. The career of Kaiser Wilhelm II, for instance, can tell us exactly how NOT to stumble into a world war. But it’s up to us to learn the lesson, isn’t it?

Poor Richard. His reputation is almost surely not deserved. We know more about this now than Shakespeare ever did… but you can’t fight The Bard.

Even so, I agree with the ancient Persians: the truth is always better than a lie.

Lies about the economy are coming from three main sources: the government, the media, and the labor unions. The purpose is to save the Biden presidency.

Socialist scholar Paul LeBlanc’s article, “Socialist Convergence and the Green New Deal,” is relevant here, for it outlined how “green” economic policies would provide the transition from capitalism “to a socialist democracy.”

The Biden Administration has tried to accomplish this, but working men and women are not buying it. They have experienced the reality of an economy which has seen prices increase 17.6 percent since Biden took office.

Nevertheless, inside-the-beltway publications are cheerleading for Bidenomics, with Politico declaring that “The blowout job growth in January adds fuel to President Joe Biden’s pitch to voters that the economy is solidly recovering under his watch.”

Similarly, a February 2 CNN report blared “Another shockingly good jobs report shows America’s economy is booming.”

The reality is something else. Two of my good friends, specialists in computer technology and high tech, described to me in stark terms how bad the economy really is. The husband is facing a lay-off at a research firm and a very difficult time finding a good-paying job.

To understand this fact, consider a report from Challenger, Gray & Christmas, a firm that helps employees find new jobs or careers. It begins, “U.S.-based employers announced 82,307 cuts in January, a 136 % increase from the 34,817 cuts announced one month prior.”

The second paragraph declares, “With the exception of last January’s total, this is the highest number of job cuts announced in January since January 2009, when 241,749 cuts were announced in the first month of that year.”

If you haven’t heard about this report, consider yourself a victim of government lies in the form of statistics.

When job figures were revised downward, meaning America added 306,000 fewer jobs, CNN still proclaimed “the labor market is still hot.”

The lies are not convincing the American people. “Biden trails GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump on major policy and personal comparisons, including by more than 20 points on which candidate would better handle the economy,” reports NBC News, citing new poll numbers.

Every week good paying jobs are being destroyed under Bidenomics. UPS, for example, said it will lay off 12,000 employees, after a “difficult and disappointing year.”

Interestingly, the media are suffering from Bidenomics. The publication Inside Radio reports that the year-to-date (2023) total cuts in the news media included layoffs at liberal organs such as NPR, The Washington Post, BuzzFeed News, Vox, and the Texas Tribune.

The Washington Post initiated its “headcount reduction goal” of 240 job cuts through voluntary buyouts. Anther outlet, The Messenger, a “source for trusted and unbiased news and information,” went completely bankrupt.

Overall, the firm Resume Builder conducted a survey of businesses and found that

• 38% of companies say they are likely to have layoffs in 2024
• 52% are likely to implement a hiring freeze in 2024.

Despite this, big labor unions are backing Biden because the over-paid leaders are allied with the socialist-communist movement in America.

United Auto Workers (UAW) president Shawn Fain Fain, who wears the T-shirt proclaiming “Eat the Rich,” makes over $200,000 a year and endorses Biden while acknowledging “A great majority of our members will not vote for President Biden.”

Trump called Fain a “dope,” adding that he is “selling the Automobile Industry right into the big, powerful, hands of China,” but in fact Fain knows what he is doing.

Jeff Mordock, the White House reporter for The Washington Times, writes that “The UAW’s leadership and ties to socialism date back to the late 1930s when Homer Martin, an avowed socialist, ran the union. Although labor experts say Mr. Fain’s rhetoric doesn’t rise to the level of socialism, it marks the first time a UAW president has depicted union efforts as a battle of the classes since socialists were running it.”

These “labor experts” have missed the fact that Fain’s election was “heavily supported by the Democratic Socialists of America,” reports Trevor Loudon

The Communist People’s World highlights  National Education Association (NEA) President Becky Pringle, who made $495,787, as another leading “progressive.” Under the leadership of this self-described “fierce social justice warrior,” the 3-million member NEA has endorsed Biden for re-election, insisting he is “lowering costs for working families” and “rebuilding the middle class.”

The NEA is participating in the “Black Lives Matter at School nationwide week of action” during February 5–9, 2024. The dedication of BLM to the destruction of the nuclear family is well-known but the militant lesbian orientation of two of the founders, now called “queerness,” is usually not highlighted.

On February 5, the NEA’s “partners” at the Zinn Education Project kicked off the week of action by hosting an online discussion, “Everyday Solidarity: Interracial Organizing Stories from The Sum of Us” with author Heather McGhee.

McGhee served as president of the group Demos, a “progressive” outlet supporting the national Democratic Party, from 2014 through June, 2018. Its funders include George Soros.

Zinn is Howard Zinn, a secret Communist Party member. America’s Survival, Inc. obtained Zinn’s FBI file and posted its contents.

Not all “progressives,” however, are backing Biden. The “Roots Action” group thinks he is a loser in November because he has not been “progressive” enough.

Since the lies about economic “progress” under Bidenomics are falling flat and since the claims that Trump was a Russian agent also fell flat, having been exposed as lies disseminated by the FBI, the new charge is that Trump is a fascist.

Smearing enemies such as Trump as a fascist or Nazi is a favorite communist trick and has been used extensively by the Revolutionary Communist Party. It seems to be the only trick the Biden supporters — at least those still supporting him — have left.

The feminists running the “Women’s March” movement are holding a February 5  training session “on how to talk to your loved ones, neighbors, and networks about freedom over fascism.” It features Anat Shenker-Osorio, a communications specialist who has been involved in “progressive electoral and policy victories across the globe” and has “delivered her findings packed” in venues such as the Congressional Progressive Caucus and the Soros-funded Open Society Foundations.

You can expect Biden to drop his attacks on “MAGA Republicans” and pick up the charge that he is standing in the way of fascism.

“The president and I have a special relationship. I call him uncle and he calls me his girl. Welcome to your home. Our home is your home. Welcome to Minneapolis.” -Ilhan Omar

Somalian Ilhan Omar serving the interest of a foreign state all the while posing as a state representative just ask her, video

Yesterday, we highlighted Ilhan Omar spewing out the truth in her confusion.  This she did while serving a foreign state posing as a state representative (2 Corinthians 11:14-15).

If only the people in this country would awake to the history of these destroyers that now confront us in the present (Hosea 4:6).

On Tuesday, a video from December 15, 2022 resurfaced, sparking renewed calls for the expulsion of Omar from Congress and the revocation of her naturalized American citizenship.

These demands came in response to a speech she delivered on Saturday to Somali-Americans in Minneapolis.

Two versions of a segment from Omar’s 2022 speech were shared on Monday. In the clips, Omar can be seen heaping praise on Somalia’s President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, who also spoke at the event.

Omar said, according to translations, “I am very honored to have the chance that our president, president of Somalia, President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, let us give him a warm welcome, Minnesota! (her comments about the cold December weather in Minnesota were edited out in one version.)

The president and I have a special relationship. I call him uncle and he calls me his girl. Welcome to your home. Our home is your home. Welcome to Minneapolis.

We are very happy that Hassan is our president. Somalia is our home. It is home to all the people gathered here. We do not feel that it is far from us. Somalia is our heart. It is in our hearts. We always think about Somalia.”

End Wokeness recently shared an edited version omitting Omar’s remarks about the cold December climate in Minnesota. Instead, they suggested that Mohamud should plan his next visit during the summer season.

Read Deuteronomy 28:43.

Iran has been under the rule of Islam since 1979. The Iranian people have attempted on several occasions to end the practice of these barbarians. Still, each time, they were faced with the ruthless Islamic regime, and many of them were massacred while the world watched and did nothing.

This non-Iranian regime, via its mismanagement and incompetence, has turned Iran into a warehouse. In four decades of its existence, the Islamic Republic has managed, notably, to produce more hunger, more anger, more frustration, prostitution at a record pace, drug addiction beyond control, child execution without any regard for international human rights, and much more. There are many reports regarding cases of child sexual abuse and molestation reaching epidemic proportions. Prosecution and imprisonment of the innocent and the systematic and illegal abuse of detainees, and hundreds of gruesome acts of torture and rape in the prisons skyrocketed. Meanwhile, the United Nations stands by and does not blink.

Along with many acts of terror, this genocidal regime has been on a mission to wipe out the Baha’is in Iran completely. Since its arrival, the Islamic government has condoned and promoted every measure of oppression against a minority religious group called the Baha’is. The Islamic regime doesn’t even spare the dead. They bulldoze and even uproot the trees in Baha’is cemeteries.

Harassment of other religious minorities is also prevalent. They routinely hang dissidents and amputate their limbs for petty theft. They are responsible for the unmitigated poverty in an oil-rich country, sex slaves in the Persian Gulf region, and the rape of children as young as two years of age.

The US and its allies are aware that the Islamic Republic years ago started a nuclear program, not for peaceful purposes, as they claim, but only to strengthen its position in the region and prolong its existence long enough to get its hands on the bloody bomb so that they can feel invincible.

What is the likelihood that the ruling Mullahs will use their new toy? If they remain in power long enough to have it, they are very likely to use it in one form or another. At the very least, they will use the bomb for blackmail and intimidation in the region. Not even an all-out nuclear exchange can be ruled out. Islam is a religion centered on death, with faithful eyes fixed on the afterlife and its promised eternal pleasures. If the faithful kills, he goes to Allah’s paradise; if he gets killed, he goes to Allah’s paradise. An urgent warning to the people of the world: stop the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program now, or face eradication from the face of the earth, and this is not a joke.

When the regime is cornered, they will immediately use their propaganda machine to cover up their crimes against humanity. They create chaos and crisis. In other words, they create smoke and mirrors and then push the dust under the rug again, as they did when the Islamists took the American diplomats as hostages for 444 days. During the Iran and Iraq war, the IRI used their proxies, Hezbollah and Hamas, to attack Israelis to escape retaliation. They are masters in the business of distracting the world from their nuclear intentions, as they did during the Gaza crisis. They took the attention away from their nuclear program.

Since 1979, the regime has stigmatized, victimized, and murdered people without any due process of law. After 40 years in power, this regime still fears its own shadow. On the slightest suspicion, they will arrest, convict, and execute innocent people.

The Mullahs presently ruling Iran are faced with monumental threats. Internally, the great majority of the populace is against their misrule. Every segment of the Iranian population, including student groups, religious and ethnic minorities, journalists, and many others, has suffered and continues to suffer inordinate hardship under the heavy-handed Mullahs and their leads. After 44 years, they are using the slogans “Death to America” and Death to Israel” for interior consumption. It must be noted that not a single Persian has ever used the Islamic phrase of “Death to America.”

Externally, they are still engaged in brinksmanship with the United States and Israel as they try to wrestle the mantle of Islamic leadership from the Sunni Saudis and their Wahhabi cabal.

Many non-turbaned creatures are working as the mullahs’ agent frontmen and pawns all over the world — including their powerful lobbyists in Washington, DC.

They have hired non-Iranians, including disenfranchised Afghanis, Houthies, Iraqis, and Palestinians, as their proxies.

Going back to GWB’s era. For eight years, President Bush promised the Iranian people that America would support them in their struggle for freedom, but did he? The Iranian people stood up firmly only to be hanged by the Islamic Republic executioners, and President Trump only cheered and supported the Iranian people without any meaningful help. But everyone in the US administration rushed to help the Ukerainas—while Iran has been occupied for more than 44 years–a double standard.

Iranians also ask the community of nations to act, teach, and show some muscle in solidarity with them and to implement maximum pressure against this illegitimate government in occupied Iran.

There must not be, however, any compromise, any negotiation, or any deals with the Islamists in Iran before making sure that the Iranian people are part of the equation. The era of mass politics, propaganda, nebulous sloganeering, and magical solutions is over. It’s a do-or-die scenario for the Iranian people and perhaps for the people of the world.

The people of Iran wish nothing less than a complete regime change through the democratic process of a free referendum. They believe it is the surest, safest, and fastest way to achieve a democratic Iran and end the world’s nightmare of nuclear holocaust that is currently facing us all.

Iranians are no longer hopeful that America will help them; on the contrary, they believe America is in bed with the regime and has extended its life by supporting the Mullahs. After all, it was Jimmy Carter who installed Ayatollah Khomeini.

• With all of the talk about Donald Trump and the Fourteenth Amendment, I’ve seen few actually dive deep into the constitutionality of the suits.
• Most of the statements come from a fundamental misunderstanding of the Fourteenth Amendment.
• So who really committed insurrection?

Although I’ve talked about the recent attempts to keep Donald Trump off the 2024 ballot on the radio program, I realized I haven’t taken the time to do an in-depth article here. I apologize for taking so long to broach this extremely important topic in this venue.

Unless you’ve been hiding from everything politics in the United States, you are aware that there are actors in several states that have sued in their state courts to disqualify Donald Trump from being on their states primary election ballot for President of the United States. As of this writing, in only two states, Colorado and Maine, have those actors found some measure of success. While this case will undoubtably find its way to the Supreme Court, this truly is a state issue, even though it has national importance.

We begin with the basis of the multiple claims that Donald Trump is ineligible to hold federal office under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Most of these suits have been filed by a single person, John Anthony Castro, a candidate for the republican nomination for President with an extremely small chance of success. To date, Mr. Castro has filed suites in Arizona, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, North, Carolina, South Carolina, Utah, and West Virginia. Interestingly enough, it does not appear that Mr. Castro has filed a suit in his home state of Texas. In addition, the group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington has filed suit in Colorado, and Robert Davis has filed suit in Michigan.

Meanwhile, the Secretary of State of the State of Maine has determined, under state law, that Donald Trump is ineligible to be on the ballot because of his participation in events at the capitol on January 6th.

While there are subtle differences between these suits, they are all based in a claim that Donald Trump is ineligible to hold federal office for participating in an insurrection on January 6th, 2021.

The Fourteenth Amendment

When most people think of the Fourteenth Amendment, they generally focus on the first section. That covers things like citizenship, due process, and equal protection of the law, while the argument being made in the states comes out of Section 3:

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV, Section 3

While the most basic question that should be asked is did Donald Trump incite, assist, or engage in a rising or rebellion against the government of the United States, there are other things that need to be considered as well.

Standing

I’m sure some of you are wondering, does Mr. Castro, a resident of Texas, have standing to bring suit in these other states. The short answer is yes. As a candidate for the republican nomination for the Presidential election, it’s expected that Mr. Castro would logically compete for the votes in all 50 states. Therefore, if Mr. Trump is ineligible for office in any, it would increase what little chance Mr. Castro has of winning delegates in that state.

Civil Office

One of the arguments being made is that Donald Trump is not subject to Section 3 because the office of President is not listed.

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President,

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV, Section 3

The Fourteenth Amendment lists the three offices elected by the people of the United States, Senator, Representative, and elector for President and Vice-President. Since neither the President nor the Vice-President are elected by the people, they are not included in this part of the list. However, that’s not the entire list.

No person … hold any office, civil or military, under the United States

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV, Section 3

This is where things get a little tricky. Some people claim that the President is not a civil officer,

By this term are included all officers of the United States who hold their appointments under the national government, whether their duties are executive or judicial, in the highest or the lowest departments; of the government, with the exception of officers of the army and navy.

Civil Officer – The Free Legal Dictionary

Therefore the President is not subject to Section 3. But that’s not what the Constitution says.

No person … hold any office, civil or military, under the United States

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV, Section 3

It seems difficult to say that the office of the President is not an office under the United States.

An office is a right to exercise a public function or employment, and to take the fees and emoluments belonging to it,.

Office – The Free Legal Dictionary

Previously Taken an Oath

There is one other area where I see a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that is the need to have perviously taken an oath.

who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States,

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV, Section 3

Just because someone has participated in an insurrection or rebellion does not disqualify them from holding office under the Fourteenth Amendment. They must have previously taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States as a member of Congress, an officer of the United States, or as a member of the legislature or officer of any state. I don’t know of anyone claiming the Donald Trump did not take an oath to support the Constitution of the United States when he assumed the office of President, but it does shoot holes in the claim that the Presidency is not an office of the United States.

Insurrection

Which leads us to the crux of the matter. Did Mr. Trump engage in insurrection or rebellion?

shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.  

U.S. Constitution, Amendment XIV, Section 3

This entire argument rests on the claim that the events of January 6th, 2021 was an insurrection. That Donald Trump helped to organize the event, and that when he said,

I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.

Donald Trump Speech “Save America” Rally Transcript January 6

he really meant for people to overturn the government of the United States. After all, that is what an insurrection is.

A rising or rebellion of citizens against their government, usually manifested by acts of violence.

Under federal law, it is a crime to incite, assist, or engage in such conduct against the United States.

Insurrection – The Free Legal Dictionary

Since Donald Trump spoke to the group that would walk from the Ellipse to the Capitol, it would be difficult to say that he did not engage in the demonstration. And though he did acknowledge that people would be walking to the Capitol, he neither encouraged them to do so, nor to act in an illegal fashion. Acknowledging that people would be peacefully and patriotically assembling to petition their representatives for a redress of the grievances they perceived, was in no way an attempt to rebel against their government. Since at least five (5) states violated the Constitution by appointing electors for President in a manner other than the one determined by their state’s legislature, they were asking their members of Congress to enforce the Constitution which created the government of the United States, even though the governments of those states refused to do so.

Fundamental Misunderstanding

The cases against Donald Trump are fundamentally based on a misunderstanding. Granted, that misunderstanding has been promulgated and promoted by supporters of a political agenda, it’s a misunderstanding nonetheless: That the government of the United States is sovereign and therefore above the law.

The government of the United States did not create the United States. Both the United States and its government are a creation of a compact between the states: The Constitution. No action by the United States is the supreme law of the land unless it is founded on the Constitution of the United States.

This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land;

U.S. Constitution, Article VI, Clause 2

To claim that the demonstration on January 6th, 2021 was an insurrection requires the assumption that political parties are the authority in the United States. At least according to Noah Webster.

A rising against civil or political authority; the open and active opposition of a number of persons to the execution of a law in a city or state.

Insurrection – Webster’s 1828 Dictionary

For a rising in the United States to be insurrection, it must be against a legitimate civil or political power. As I’ve already shown, at least five states were exercising an illegitimate power to appoint electors for President, since the manner of choosing them was established by the judicial or executive branch of the state government, not its legislature. Furthermore, the vast majority of the crowd was not looking to overturn the Congress or even the Presidency, but what was evidently the flawed and corrupt elections in several of the states. Even those who were convinced that Donald Trump had won and wanted him installed as President were not committing insurrection, since they were not trying to remove someone from office, but questioning the process by which he would be placed in it. How can the United States call itself a republic if the people in whom that sovereign power comes are not allowed to question the elections of their representatives? How can a calling for following the supreme law of the land be an insurrection against that law and the government it created?

Add to all this the obvious political biases in everything from the reporting on the event to the claims made by the political actors. After all, when thousands shutdown highways, burned effigies, and stated that “Donald Trump is not my President”, no one claimed they were committing insurrection. When violent demonstrations rampaged through Washington, D.C. in 2020, including the setting of fires across the street from the White House, those who call for such demonstrations were not accused of insurrection.

Who Has Incited Insurrection?

While the Fourteenth Amendment does not require someone to be convicted of insurrection, it does claim someone must have engaged in such a thing. In the United States we are supposed to have due process. That includes the assumption of innocence and the government bearing the burden of proof. Yet to date the only “proof” provided in support of this claim of insurrection have been misquotes, misrepresentation, and outright lies about the action of the majority of the demonstrators. Yes, some did force their way thought a barrier, but that is trespassing not insurrection. There is video evidence that the majority of those who entered the capitol did so peacefully and with the consent of the Capitol Police officers there at the time. Congress was not forcibly removed, but evacuated due to an abundance of caution. In fact, Congress returned later that day to observe the rest of the counting of the votes by the electors for president.

So who has engaged in insurrection? While those who have harassed the people for the sin of being in Washington, D.C. on January 5th through 7th have committed crimes, insurrection is not one of them. Those agents of the federal government who have used abusive force, including heavily armed teams with overwhelming firepower to take someone into custody for non-violent and misdemeanor allegations, have committed crimes but not insurrection. Even those who are in the media, or who is or is not in the office of President doesn’t make the government. While some of the actors in this drama we’ve been reviewing may come close, insurrection must be a rejection of the government, not of those in office. Otherwise the United States is just another banana republic, run by emotions rather than the rule of law. George Washington warned us what would happen if we allow our political partisanship to rule our emotions:

The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

If we continue down this road, then insurrection will no longer be political hyperbole used to promote an agenda. It will lead to something much, much worse.

It serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection.

Washington’s Farewell Address 1796

Is that the future you want for your children?

February 6, 2024

My name is Lynne M Taylor, however, I’m also known as Common Core Diva. My combined expertise as a former educator has led me to become a trusted resource for many in the US, as well as across the world. My purpose today is to bring light to the trail of ‘meducating’ (combined overreaches of medicating and educating our students of all ages, in our schools AND in our communities) that is seeing a marked increase, in not only HOW our students are being over medicated and underserved, but to shed light on HOW we CAN and MUST fight back.

This article has been a result of my intensive research, as well as meeting and conferring with the original whistleblowers on ‘meducation’. Please feel free to use this resource in your local, state or federal activism. What we’re seeing in the US, isn’t exclusive to us. It’s a world-wide push for controlling minds, hearts and families. I’m available to speak to any group willing to learn, listen, and act on the information shared.

In my research, which began before ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act), it already proved that the collusion of Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Insurance and Big Government was a huge citizen issue.

However, it wasn’t until uncovering several mandates in ESSA, that the purposed and evil shift of INCREASING exponentially, the ‘de facto rules’ embedded in ESSA, that healthcare would be the ‘driver’ of the top-down agenda to SHIFT not only our students thinking, but how their bodies would be assaulted by over prescribed drugs (medicines) and over prescribed behavior ‘interventions’.

*Did you know that when ESSA became ‘national law’, the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services was given THE single biggest power increase to date? It also saw a recalculation of Title One funding (thanks to Congress, especially NC’s Thom Tillis). The recalculation changed the amount of Medicaid funds to EVERY school (or school related health care entity). Before ESSA, Title One impacted those students who needed assistance. After the recalculation, it became a smothering blanket for EVERY student. Regardless of a true need or not.

To clearly understand where we are in 2024, I think it’s imperative to take a look backwards, first.

You may already know that near the turn of the 20th Century, John D. Rockefeller devoted his money to petroleum and all the things which could be created from this resource–including synthetic vitamins. Due to the laws of the early 1900s, it was easy for big corporations (and/or deep pockets) to influence DC. However, when you take in the fact that Rockefeller JOINED Andrew Carnegie to fund America’s medical schools, a toxic monopoly was born. This monopoly has grown through so many smaller companies, laws, as well as become accepted as ‘standard practice’. This toxic monopoly also didn’t stop at the borders of the United States, it spread to other nations and has become a trillion dollar profit making cycle of deception. It’s a global sledge hammer willing, ready and able to control our culture/communities/schools. The toxic monopoly of Rockefeller and Carnegie connected them to not only DC, but the United Nations, as well. Fast forward to 2024, and it’s easy to see that the ‘meducation’ aspect thrives in the Sustainable Development Goals, especially within SDGs #3 and #4 (health care and education, respectively).

We cannot leave the blame simply at the financial altar of Rockefeller and Carnegie, we also need to acknowledge a WV Senator: Robert C Byrd. It was under his ‘direction’ of Congress (aka: coercion) that Medicaid became a part of our schools. His target population was the low income and underserved families. What did this mean? It meant ANY child the government deemed to be within those 2 target groups was ‘snapped up’.

Thanks to Byrd’s pattern, by 2014, “Free Care Reversal” allowed schools to receive EVEN MORE Medicaid funding. It was the first time in education history (that I could locate) where States were allowed to ‘double dip’ into federal funds (ie: taxpayer dollars).

Let’s consider, if private citizens ‘double dip’ or abuse federal funds, it’s a felony. States are ‘encouraged’ to conduct ‘meducation’ in this unconstitutional and criminal manner. Because of Byrd’s insertion of Medicaid in schools, across the nation, CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program), a massive expansion of health and behavioral assessments was created. COVID has expanded this EVEN FURTHER. The BiPartisan Safer Schools Act has beefed up behavioral, mental health, physical health ‘meducation’ to levels that are acts of daily crimes against our children. Elsewhere around the world, many variations of these schemes are visited upon families.

When ESSA was signed into ‘de facto rule’ (aka: federal law) in 2015 under the Obama Administration, Education and health care created/expanded:

Reformulated Medicaid funding for whole schools and communities.
Embedded CHIP into community funding.
Expanded mental and behavioral health ‘interventions’, often without proper parental consent (Since COVID, both the Trump and Biden Administrations, implemented even more overreaches in these areas, especially in the in-home visits of families).

In 2018, under the Trump Administration, Medicaid Block Grants were created. These Grants are still in use and cover:

K-12 health ‘benchmarks’ that are also used on any adult participating in a whole school health care program or service.
In-home, government mandated health benchmarks. These benchmarks, if not met by the families, are being micromanaged at a local/state/federal level.
Created new mandates for 20-64 year old citizens. (birth to 18 is covered by taxpayer funded Medicaid, as is 65 and older)

* Did you know that ‘mandates’ from a government view are parameters based on RoI (Return on Investment) NOT your individual needs? These parameters force observation on your weight, your choice of contraception, as well as dictate how chronic conditions and illnesses are treated, as well as control any and ALL behavioral conditions. The mandates of ESSA, COVID relief money and Medicaid Block Grants expects and DEMANDS that ALL States COMPLY or lose state and local funding. These mandates also align Medicaid funds with commercial providers (Hence, public-private partnerships. P3s are fascist, not Constitutional.)

All these activities have turned our day cares and colleges into federally recognized (and ‘rewarded’ as such) qualified medical centers! Justifications by educrats (those who control education with little to no clue OR are in step with the agenda at hand) include: “Better access”, ‘More equity’; “Better outcomes” and even ‘DEI justice’. (*DEI is short for diversity, equity and inclusion)

What this system is actually accomplishing is a ‘cradle to grave’ wheel that encircles EVERY age person. It attacks our VABs (Values, Attitudes and Beliefs). It seeks to correct our God-given rights into government assigned rights. It violates, several times a day, our civil rights as well.

It’s turning our children, at any age, as well as ourselves into government commodities to be controlled and traded.

Solutions:

Look at your State’s Departments of Education and Health/Human Services. Do you see any of the phrases I’ve shared above? ANYTHING surrounding ‘student safety or their well being and overall health NEEDS to be NOTED. Look at both Departments Code of Ethics, if you see something like “Abide by the Department’s policies” TAKE NOTE.

Take your notes and compare them with notes from those in your circles of influence. Get together with your like minded parents or taxpayers. Discuss what you have found. There IS a law which exists and can be used to STOP the “MEDUCATION”!

42 US Code, Section 1983 is also known as the “Civil Rights Act of 1981” The section, most helpful to WE the People, is of course, Section 1983. It’s the Section which lays out recourse for ANY and ALL US Citizens whose rights have been deprived.

*Did you know that the Section 1983 of the 1981 Civil Rights Acts expressly reserves CIVIL ACTIONS private citizens can make against ANY government representative (elected or appointed)?! This gold mine of a law has NO statute of limitations, applies to any US citizen, regardless of age and addresses ANY misuse of a public authority in office. This means any of the school boards participating in the ‘meducation’ of your child are liable. ANY of the government employees with Medicaid, Dept of Education or Health/Human Services are liable. ANY of the law enforcement used to carry out your compliance (or enforce your lack of) is liable! According to Cornell Law School, the success of using this Section against tyranny is that the harm being caused OR PLANNED TO BE ENACTED is personal. Thus, your civil action in addressing these people in power MUST become personal as well!

Think about it, if you seek civil action against an entire school board or government office, big money and power are brought against you. However, when you seek civil action against EVERY single person participating in the ‘meducation’ process, you level the power to be in your favor.

This Civil Action section can also be used in excessive police force cases, ‘land grab’ cases, etc.! YOUR civil liberty is guaranteed (as well as your child’s) by the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments of the US Constitution. Education and health care, as we know, violate our 9th and 10th Amendments.

If you’d like more information on how to use the Section 1983 of the Civil Rights Act of 1981, let me know. The process is not complicated, but it is effective. I’m not a lawyer, but I do know that to beat the corruption we are experiencing, we MUST use the LAW against tyranny or we won’t win.

Lastly, know that the 2024 elections will see BOTH mainstream political parties attaching their platforms to many of these issues, if not all of them. Citizens, while the parties will appear to differ in their embracing of ‘meducation’, they are united in funding and in legislation. We cannot allow any government official to carry this collusion forward.

“Blind loyalty is a very dangerous path to follow. I have never once said I don’t support our troops. What I have said is that what Bush is doing is an unconstitutional use of our military. His phony ‘nation building’ will never bring “democracy to Iraq,” even if that were a desirable form of government, which it is not.

“Nation building is and always has been a loser. Over the past decade, Clinton and Bush have unconstitutionally deployed our military and unconstitutionally spent hundreds of billions of borrowed dollars for “nation building.” Every single one of these forays, driven by lust for power and to cement a one world order, has met with dismal failure. There’s been no stable self-sustaining nations come out of Bosnia, Somalia, Kosovo, Haiti, Afghanistan or Iraq and there never will be. Right now, over in Iraq, the cry is the same old one, “Yankee go home.”

That is an excerpt from my Nov. 15, 2004 column.  The blood of 4, 492 U.S. service members killed in Iraq.  32, 292 wounded.  TRILLIONS of borrowed dollars wasted when the U.S. invaded Iraq and Afghanistan.  There were no weapons of mass destruction.  Like The Bay of Tonkin[1], it was a heinous lie.  By March 2023, We the People had been raped for obscene amounts of BORROWED money (Emphasis mine):

$1.79 trillion – The total spent by the US on the wars in Iraq and Syria, according to estimates published by the Costs of War project. This figure includes Pentagon and State Department spending, veterans’ care and the interest on debt financing the conflicts.

$2.89 trillion – Total US spending when including projected veterans’ care through to 2050.

125 – The number of days the US campaign plan had envisaged it would take to destroy Iraqi forces and topple Saddam Hussein’s regime.  8 – The number of years the war lasted.

Article 1, Section. 8, Clause 11 of the U.S. Constitution.  Congress’ authority:  To declare war.  Not a president, Art. 2, Section 2, U.S. Constitution:  The President shall be commander in chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the militia of the several states, when called into the actual service of the United States;

Joint Address to Congress Leading to a Declaration of War Against Japan (1941)

“On December 8, 1941, the day after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, President Franklin Roosevelt delivered this “Day of Infamy Speech.” Immediately afterward, Congress declared war, and the United States entered World War II.”

“At the time of Bush’s invasion of Iraq, CFR point dog in the House, Rep. Henry Hyde, [R-Il] stated that “declaring war is anachronistic, it isn’t done anymore…” During the same time period, darling of the deaf, dumb and blind “liberals,” Ranking Minority Member Tom Lantos, [D-Ca] called the declaration of war “frivolous and mischievous.” On January 7, 1999, former Clinton Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich said, “…when the president decides to go to war, he no longer needs a declaration of war from Congress.”  That’s not what the Constitution quite clearly states.

20 years in Afghanistan with no formal declaration of war by Congress.  Thousands more of our military dead, thousands injured; too many who will never recover mentally.  And, still the U.S. continues to shove our military on Middle Eastern countries who do not want us there.  Their religious groups have been fighting each other for a thousand years.

Oh, and by the way, more BORROWED money (OUR purse is now overdrawn $34.2 TRILLION dollars):  Biden Regime and International Donors Send $80 Million Every 2 Weeks to Taliban-Controlled Afghanistan Amidst Reports of Funds Being Misappropriated, Says Government Watchdog, Nov. 1, 2023.  ALL spending must originate in the U.S. House.  Thank you, Republicans and Democrats.

Jan. 28, 2024, 3 American service members were killed (RIP), more than 40 seriously wounded from a drone strike at what’s called Tower 22 located in Jordan, northeast right near the Syrian border.  Sitting ducks in an extremely remote area.  Of course, Iran’s UN spokes mouth said Iran “had no connection and had nothing to do with the attack on the U.S. base.”

The US has been attacked repeatedly over there by Iranian proxies.  Houthis terrorists in poor Yemen (those people have suffered so horribly for geo-political games and big money) are also funded by Iran.

Despite all the conspiracy theories career criminal, Joe Biden, won the 2020 election, that imposter carrying out the agenda of his masters was lackadaisical about our military killed. The powerful cabal of war mongers whose names are kept out of the media hate Donald Trump but love the bomb-bomb-bomb Iran crowd.  Nikki Haley calls for strikes on Iran’s resources and when asked if it would risk escalating a war, she responds: “It’s not starting war, it’s actually preventing war”, Jan. 29, 2024; “We’ve Got to Do This Immediately!” – Warhawk Nikki Haley Says US Should Strike and Kill Iranian Leaders Inside Their Country (VIDEO), Jan. 30, 2024.  That from a wannabe president who couldn’t even register for Nevada’s caucus properly coming up so all the delegates (26) go to Trump.

Nothing like telling your enemy how and when you’re going to strike.  And those Mullahs who control Iran will be sure to make themselves available to get blown up.  And while attacks continue, Biden goes off on another vacation or election events to sniff little girl’s hair.  Meanwhile, the ‘Perfumed Princes of the Pentagon’ as the late, great Colonel David Hackworth used to call the JCS (Joint Chiefs of Staff) team is busy trying to find their butts with two hands worrying about climate change.  Did Iranian Agent Serving As Pentagon Chief Of Staff Cause Death Of 3 Soldiers?, Feb. 3, 2024

Not to worry, mentally gone Biden’s minions decided to let the enemy know what’s coming so they could get out of the way:

High-Ranking Iranian Intelligence and Military Officials Involved in Deadly Attack on US Troops Flee Region After Biden Telegraphs Friday’s US Strikes in Middle East, Feb. 3, 2024:  “Biden gave key Iranian military officials a warning before the US conducted airstrikes in Iraq and Syria so they were able to safely flee the region just in time.”  //  Defense Experts: Did Biden give Iranian proxies too much time to prepare for retaliatory strikes?, Feb. 3, 2024:  “Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for the Middle East Simone Ledeen told the Daily Caller News Foundation she believes the delayed response was intentional because the Biden administration doesn’t want to strike Iran and its allies too harshly. The Biden administration has been vocal that it wants to avoid a war with Iran or broader conflict in the Middle East.”

Well, there you go.  Don’t be harsh with the enemy.  Biden won’t hit Iran for killing three Americans — he helped the mullahs do it (Worth the time to read)

Here’s a hint, not for old Joe since he’s not there mentally:  Cut off the head.  Parasites feed off the host.  Let me go back in time:

From my July 27, 2004 column:  “On the morning of April 20, 1986, Americans woke up to the news that Air Force F-111’s and other support aircraft had carried out a full scale raid on Moamaar Khadafy in Libya. Why did Ronald Reagan order this precision bombing of Tripoli? A series of telex messages had been intercepted from Libya’s East Berlin embassy right before and after a disco was bombed in West Berlin on April 5, 1986. Based on hard intelligence, Reagan cited “irrefutable” evidence that Libyan leader Moammar Khadafy was the brains behind the bombing and the decision was made to strike back.

“This act of cowardice by terrorists killed two people, including an American GI; hundreds were wounded, including 50 to 60 Americans. Once Reagan was absolutely certain beyond a shadow of a doubt that Libya was responsible for this unprovoked act which led to the murder and injury of Americans, he acted without hesitation, saying, “I warned that there should be no place on earth where terrorists can rest and train and practice their deadly skills. I meant it. I said that we would act with others, if possible, and alone if necessary to ensure that terrorists have no sanctuary anywhere. Tonight, we have.” We did act alone; France wouldn’t even allow our aircraft to fly over their air space.

“The guidelines for this mission were crystal clear: There should be minimal risk to pilots to reduce any chance of our own becoming POWs. The targets would be military, civilians would be spared as much as possible, but there was no mistake: Go for the kill and send a very clear and unequivocal message to anyone who dare harm our own. There was no warning to we the people or Khadafy and that’s the way it should be. If the proof is there, our military go, get the job done and come home.  We have an indisputable right to strike quickly and decisively against anyone who hurts US.

“We did not invade that country and begin the process of destroying the culture of the indigenous population by forcing “democracy” on them. Following our right to retaliate against any nation that kills or harms our own, Reagan did not engage in an endless and deceitful mission to “rebuild” Libya. Americans were not fleeced to the tune of tens and tens of billions of dollars to provide “humanitarian aid,” build new schools or become friends with an enemy nation – a certain recipe for failure. It is not our responsibility or duty to “win the hearts and minds” of any foreign country or their people to fight some endless “war on terrorism.”  7-minute video – President Reagan’s Address to the Nation on the bombing of Libya, April 14, 1986

While Moammar Khadafy wasn’t killed, he got the message.  But, the US couldn’t keep it’s nose out of more conflict and secret goings-on:  Hillary Clinton’s Benghazi Debacle: Arming Jihadists in Libya . . . and Syria, August 2, 2012:  “As U.S. armed forces attack ISIS in Libya, WikiLeaks is poised to remind us that ISIS is in Libya — indeed, that ISIS is ISIS — thanks to disastrous policies championed by Hillary Clinton as President Obama’s secretary of state. Also raised, yet again, is the specter of Mrs. Clinton’s lying to Congress and the American people — this time regarding a matter some of us have been trying for years to get answers about: What mission was so important the United States kept personnel in the jihadist hellhole of Benghazi in 2012?

“Specifically, did that mission involve arming the Syrian “rebels” — including al-Qaeda and forces that became ISIS — just as, at Mrs. Clinton’s urging, our government had armed Libyan “rebels” (again, jihadists) to catastrophic effect?

“It has been less than two weeks since WikiLeaks rocked the Clinton campaign on the eve of the Democratic convention by leaking hacked e-mails illuminating DNC efforts to rig the nomination chase in Clinton’s favor. Now the organization’s founder, Julian Assange, has announced that WikiLeaks is soon to publish highly sensitive government e-mails that demonstrate Hillary Clinton’s key participation in efforts to arm jihadists in Syria. Just as in Libya, where Mrs. Clinton championed the strategy of arming Islamist “rebels,” the Syrian “rebels” who ultimately received weapons included the Muslim Brotherhood, al-Qaeda, and ISIS.”

That career criminal *itch should have gone to a federal cage a long time ago.  If you have not seen the movie, 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers Of Benghazi, it is a must watch.  Truth matters.  You can watch that superb (but sickening) movie free on Pluto TV here.  The last time I went to a movie theater was in 2012 to watch ARGO which won an Academy Award for Best Picture of the Year.  A true story that shocked me.  A true story kept from the public for more than 20 years.  I can’t recommend highly enough it is a must watch, factual account of the Iranian hostage crisis.  Our embassy people held hostage for 444 days while Jimmy Carter floundered around.  An amazing chain of events and we owed a huge thank you to the Canadian government at the time.

Oh, but Syria is such an important ‘national security’ country, we’re over there bombing away and the Brits have joined in.  NO QUESTION Iran has been funding vicious murderers like Hezbolla, ISIS, Hamas, the Taliban for decades.  And, once again, we have three dead service members – FOR WHAT? Iran is the bank for funding terrorism all over the Middle East.  So the US should make sure Iran has plenty of money:

While I despise rent-boy, Sen. Lindsay Graham, he is right on this:  Biden’s $90 Billion Bailout to Tehran, April 28, 2021, United States Senate Committee on the Budget.  But, no deal, Lindsay.

There is a long and sordid history regarding the US and Iran.  Tehran university students in 1971.

The Tehran Twist: The Tehran jet-set entertaining themselves with rock and roll music in the early 1960s.

Then came the Mullahs with their barbaric, putrid Sharia Law.  Women forced to dress like mummies and treated like chattel.

The good news is there’s a growing opposition by women over there deliberately shedding those tents and demanding equal treatment.  The younger generations are in a cold-revolution over there right now.  Just like most people on this planet, they’re sick and tired of constant war and conflicts.  Iran’s Disenchanted Youth: Mullah Election Tactics, Jan. 21, 2004, “In an era where the Iranian regime‘s legitimacy dwindles, a crucial transformation is underway, led by the nation’s youth. The criminal mullahs, once revered as the guardians of faith, are now perceived as mere embodiments of corruption and deceit. This shift in perception among Iran’s youth is not just a passing phase; it’s a profound and irreversible societal change.”

The key is getting rid of the Mullahs:  Iran: The End for Mullahs in Sight.  However, it won’t come without spilling of blood in Iran, quoting from the piece above, “The price tag to put an end to this “game,” however, was the lives of more than 1,500 protesters murdered by the regime’s forces in a matter of 48 hours during the 2019 uprising.

“In January 2020, a wide protest movement erupted in opposition to the IRGC shooting down Flight 752. However, as the people were readying to increase the tempo and intensity of the uprisings, the COVID pandemic began. [Note:  How convenient.] This provided the regime with breathing room for a period of time. Khamenei banned the import of effective vaccines for COVID, hoping that the massive mortality would immobilize the freedom-seeking society. However, despite the heavy death toll- now exceeding 425,000, the protest movement had already begun.”

The destiny of the Iranian people is in their hands the same as it was for a new nation called America and our Revolutionary War.  As for the US and the killing of our service members (and all the injured, many of them severely):  Cut off the head and that includes another butcher, Ebrahim Raisi, who was “selected as the eighth President of the Iranian regime”. It can be done militarily if the ‘Perfumed Princes of the Pentagon” knew what they were doing, which they don’t IMHO or they’re believers of Hussein Obama’s creed:  Thou shall not harm any Muslim.

Without the billions that’s been poured out of Iran for all the terrorist groups previously named, they would have to find new sources of funding for their constant, barbaric attacks.  They might look to China but that murderous communist hell-hole is in serious financial trouble.

Footnote:

[1]  How The Gulf Of Tonkin Incident Sparked The Vietnam War, Oct. 24, 2022:  On August 2, it was attacked by North Vietnamese torpedo boats. And then, two days later, on August 4, the Johnson administration claimed that it had been attacked again. After the second attack, the U.S. Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution almost unanimously, allowing the federal government to “take all necessary measures” to protect U.S. forces in Vietnam.  It was tantamount to a declaration of war, but it was based on a lie.

“After decades of public skepticism and government secrecy, the truth finally came out: In the early 2000s, nearly 200 documents were declassified and released by the National Security Agency (NSA).

“They showed that there was no attack on August 4. U.S. officials had distorted the truth about the Gulf of Tonkin incident for their own gains — and perhaps for Johnson’s own political prospects.  This lie jumpstarted a war that would claim 58,220 Americans and more than 3 million Vietnamese lives. This is the true story of the Gulf of Tonkin incident.”

FDR and the Pearl Harbor attack (Mine), May 20, 2005:  “When Franklin Roosevelt died during the closing days of World War II, it fell to Truman to end the war and formulate policies for a new world order.”  –The Smithsonian Treasury: The Presidents, 1991

“One shouldn’t believe everything they read in a book, but in the case of “Day of Deceit: The Truth about FDR and Pearl Harbor” by Robert B. Stinnett, there can be no denying the awful truth that FDR not only knew the Japanese were going to attack, but official documents prove FDR wanted them to strike America first.

“Stinnett spent 16 years doing his research and fighting in the courts to obtain a plethora of shocking documents under the Freedom of Information Act – their authenticity cannot be denied. This link to a .pdf file provides a few of the official documents, i.e., “It (official document) directs the Hawaiian U.S. Army commander, Lt. Gen. Walter Short, to follow an official U.S. government desire: ‘The United States desires that Japan commit the first overt act.'”  Pearl Harbor was no surprise. “Day of infamy,” indeed.”

2,403 Americans were acceptable casualties.

Conservative Republicans have known this for decades and worked to free the captured minds of democrat voters, without much success, until Biden. The massive total disaster of the warmongering, and treason-at-the-border Biden regime, and border states sharing their crisis with the country by shipping millions of illegal invaders to democrat-controlled cities responsible for it, has provided a much-needed wake-up call to all citizens.

As democrat voters appear entirely confident in their self-proclaimed brilliance, while totally incapable of an open discussion on any real facts, their party leaders see them quite differently than they see themselves.

Since the late 80s and the Clinton years in the 90s, a very small group of highly paid Democrat Party strategists took control over all DNC political campaigns. They established a small, targeted list of voter issues aimed at manipulating a certain type of voter, such as “abortion” to attract the female voter, “racism” to attract minority voters, “economic envy” to attract voters who were Pavlov trained to believe they are entitled to the earnings of others, especially young voters.

Extreme Marxist billionaires around the globe were thrilled to finance the mission to train certain American voter demographics to vote themselves and all others into certain unsustainable ruin. A large portion of DNC fundraising comes from foreign donors and international corporations. While nations ruined by socialism around the globe elect people to lead them out of the disaster, an increasing number of Americans are voting for the same failed policies.

But before I go any further, and you decide that I’m just some Republican Party operative, take a moment to read the statements from the top Democrat Party strategist since 1990, from an interview he gave during the 2012 re-election campaign of Barack Hussein Obama… multi-millionaire democrat operative James Carville.

“Ideologies aren’t all that important. What’s important is psychology.

The Democratic constituency is just like a herd of cows. All you have to do is lay out enough silage [feed], and they come running. That’s why I became an operative working with Democrats. With Democrats, all you have to do is make a lot of noise, lay out the hay, and be ready to use the ole cattle prod in case a few want to bolt the herd.

Eighty percent of the people who call themselves Democrats don’t have a clue as to political reality.

What amazes me is that you could take a group of people who are hard workers and convince them that they should support social programs that are the exact opposite of their own personal convictions. Put a little fear here and there, and you can get people to vote any way you want.

The voter is basically dumb and lazy. The reason I became a Democratic operative instead of a Republican was because there were more Democrats that didn’t have a clue than there were Republicans.

Truth is relative. Truth is what you can make the voter believe is the truth. If you’re smart enough, the truth is what you make the voter think it is. That’s why I’m a Democrat. I can make the Democratic voters think whatever I want them to.”

Democrat Party strategist James Carville (2012)

In a very typical Carville fashion, James says it like it is, unfettered and right to the point.

In other words, top democrat party operatives see their voters as mere lumps of clay to be molded into whatever they want you to be, for their benefit, not yours. They perfected the art of controlling their voters by simply controlling their every thought and emotion. They use bold-faced campaign lies, usually focused on attacking their political challengers, rather than promoting their own track record of success, or lack thereof.

Beyond learning how to win elections, democrats have destroyed literally everything they touch after the election ends. Every democrat-controlled city or state is by far, the worst in the country. The party itself has become the most undemocratic organization in USA history, using these tactics not only to defeat their republican opponents in general elections, but to defeat other democrats in DNC primaries.

More than 80% of American voters, all demographics, can see that the Biden family has been career international criminals guilty of open treason against the USA for decades, and that Joe himself lacks the mental ability to complete a coherent sentence, which is why they don’t allow him to actually campaign or answer media questions.

But the party has trained their cattle to ignore everything they see with their own eyes, hear with their own ears, and witness in their own lives, as if reality does not even exist. And as Carville said so well, if you stray from the herd for a moment, the party will cattle prod you back into compliance.

Did you actually think it was your idea to vote on the basis of “women’s rights,” defined by the party as nothing more than some evil right to kill your own children in the womb? Did you think it was your idea to accept the notion that humans are born in more than two genders, male and female? Did you think it was your idea to promote every form of sexual perversion as merely a “natural alternative lifestyle?”

Was it your idea to blame republicans for “racism” in America, knowing full well that it was democrats who formed the KKK and fought against all “equal rights acts” designed to affirm that “all men are created equal?”

None of these things were your idea. These are all carefully crafted voter manipulation issues designed to convince fools into foolish behaviors that make no sense at all. Was it your idea to hate everyone who wants America to be great again? Was it your idea to spread lies about democrat opponents all over social media, even though the lies have been proven lies over and over again?

None of these things were your idea…

But as Carville stated perfectly in his opening sentence above, “Ideologies aren’t all that important. What’s important is psychology.”

While you think you are voting on the basis of your “ideologies,” in reality, you’re only doing what you are told to do, on the basis of party leaders understanding and manipulating you via “psychology.”

“What amazes me is that you could take a group of people who are hard workers and convince them that they should support social programs that are the exact opposite of their own personal convictions. Put a little fear here and there, and you can get people to vote any way you want.” – Carville

What do you think their COVID19 plandemic was all about? Why do you think they have spent decades convincing you that if you don’t vote for them, the world will soon end due to “climate change” when there is no evidence at all that the globe is experiencing anything more than normal changes in climate from season to season?

It reminds me of the old “hurt and rescue” extortion scheme made famous by New York and Chicago mobs and labor union bosses in the early 1900s. In order to get you to do what they want you to do, they have to hurt you first, in order to manipulate you into buying their rescue plan. They had to convince you that you would soon die of a common cold…before you would line up to take mRNA fake vaccines intended to do more harm than any virus.

It’s happening right now… The WEF Great Covid 19 Reset is underway globally, and they have told you that when they achieve their goals, “you will own nothing and be happy.” Still, you vote for their USA partners, the democrats. (and a few fake republicans)

In order to get you to vote America into a 3^rd world global commune under the government of Nazi Klaus Schwab, his global partners, and his young global leaders, they have to first destroy everything else, crash the economy, start wars everywhere, pit citizen against citizen, and make life so uncomfortable in freedom that you will choose global tyranny to escape the pain they put you in…

Even so, will these voters change course once they know exactly how their political leaders have manipulated them for decades? Most will not, they are so deeply indoctrinated now that most will recoil in an involuntary reaction to truth. This is part of their Pavlov training too… Truth hits these folks like Holy Water hits Satan… causing an involuntary recoil.

Democrats need to grasp exactly how their party leaders truly feel about them. It’s not how conservatives feel about them that’s at issue, but rather how their own party leaders feel about them.

But the rest of us have a duty to take action to overrule these voters in every election, every district, before they vote all of us into bondage.

At the end of the day, the USA is whatever WE make it, or allow it to become.

2024 will be the last chance WE have to stop the final destruction of the American Dream and American way of life. If WE fail in this duty this time, well, throughout history, freedom once lost, has never been regained!

Our children and grandchildren will remember us as only those who stood up in the face of evil tyranny, and those who didn’t. No one will be remembered any other way…

Worry. Anxiety. Depression.  These disorders have reached pandemic proportions, afflicting people from all walks of life, worldwide. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, here in America, more than one in four adults (26%) suffer from depression or some form of major anxiety disorder, and 52% all adults take some type of anti-anxiety or anti-depression drug daily, and as more and more continue to face unprecedented challenges, the numbers are rising.

This past year saw a marked increase in suicides — here in our country and around the world.  And for those afflicted, there is no shortage of fuel for our worry and anxiety. Today we face increasing costs of all goods and services, the ongoing Globalist agenda, threats to our Constitutional Republic, a deluge of foreign invaders on our borders, a tyrannical government machine, racial, political, and moral division, and so much more. Men, and heads of households especially, worry about paying the bills and keeping food on the table, and few are in a position to survive past their next paycheck. What will happen in the event of an emergency? Where will the money and resources come from to meet our needs and the needs of those who depend on us?

Faced with such threats to the way of life we know and love, many are ready to give up their freedoms in exchange for Big Brother’s promise to make it all better. Yet we know that the planned takeover by socialists and communists will only make matters worse — and so we worry more.

The truth is, the world has always been in turmoil — ever since the fall of Adam and Eve in the garden. I wonder what people worried about a thousand years ago — or two thousand years ago — or five thousand years ago. Surely, they all had worries of their own. Our parents had worries. Our grandparents had worries. And today, we carry on the tradition, but we’ve cranked it up a few notches. Today, we really worry!

I don’t mean to make light of the situation. Quite the opposite. Anxiety disorders are real. Many who suffer these maladies can’t help themselves. Sufferers often know their emotions are out of control, their feelings are unreasonable, their worries are largely unfounded. Yet they can’t seem to pull out of it. It becomes a downward spiral, often into deep depression, or to the point where they can no longer function normally.

And Christians are not immune. In fact, I’d venture to guess that many of us deal with anxiety more than non-believers, because I believe this is a spiritual matter, and as God’s children, we’re directly targeted by the enemy in these spiritual attacks of anxiety.  But most of the things the enemy causes us to fear or worry about never happen anyway.

God’s Word tells us 365 times (once for each day of the year) to “Fear Not.” Fear not. Jesus Himself spent a lot of time teaching on this subject. In Luke 12, He said, “…Don’t worry about your life, what you will eat; or about the body, what you will wear. For life is more than food and the body more than clothing. Consider the ravens: they don’t sow or reap; they don’t have a storeroom or a barn; yet God feeds them. Aren’t you worth much more than the birds?” (Luke 12:22-24).

He went on to ask the question, “Can any of you add a single cubit to his height (or one moment to his life span) by worrying? If then, you’re not able to do even a little thing, why worry about the rest?” (Luke 12: 25-26).

Then He said, “Don’t keep striving for what you should eat and what you should drink, and don’t be anxious. For the idolaters eagerly seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first the kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you.” (Luke 12: 27-31).

Then, as a loving Father would gently remind his children He said, “Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.  Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.  For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” (Luke 12: 32-34).

Jesus points to the ravens, the birds of the air. He points to the wildflowers, to the grass of the field. In short, He points to CREATION. In Genesis 1:1 we read, “In the beginning, God Created…” Yes! God created the heavens and the earth. He made it all. When you make a deeper study of the topic of creation, you realize that God made everything well — intricately designed with a purpose and a plan. God did not create anything that was not well equipped to survive and thrive in this world, according to His purpose.

God provides for everything He’s made. He sustains this old world. And He cares deeply about each of His children. The Bible says He even numbers the very hairs of our heads! God feeds the birds of the air personally. Isn’t that amazing?! The Scriptures tell us that not even a single sparrow falls to the ground without Him knowing. How He cares for, and provides for His creation and He especially delights in providing for all of our needs. Even more so when we look to Him and trust Him for His provision and acknowledge His hand of care upon our lives, with hearts of gratitude and thanksgiving.

Consider a tree. From its roots to its trunk, to its branches and beyond, it draws water and nutrients up to the tips of the upper-most leaves. Man, in all his wisdom, cannot build a pump efficient enough to do a task like this. Yet God has equipped the trees to survive and thrive — automatically!  And look at the intricacies of a leaf and consider how the tree cleans our air and provides oxygen for all the earth’s creatures!

Consider your own body. The Bible says that God “knit” each of us together in our mother’s wombs. Scientists are now coming to understand that this word “knit” is more appropriate than anyone realized previously. Our muscles and sinews and internal organs and bones are literally “knit” together, and — the process begins at the moment of conception. We are fearfully and wonderfully made. Consider your eyes, your hands, your senses. Consider how our bodies heal themselves and fight infection and disease.

Consider the delicate balance of nature, how the Earth is the perfect distance from the Sun to provide us with the ideal climate. Consider how the Moon not only lights our night sky, but also controls our ocean tides, so the water of our planet is not dead and stagnant, but moves, cleans itself and sustains life.

Truly, when Jesus was teaching this lesson on worry, He meant for us to look to God’s creation and understand that what He creates, He sustains and provides for — and more than that — cares for on a personal level. Awhile back, when I was particularly troubled by a particular situation, I was in prayer when the Lord spoke to my heart and asked directly, “Rob, how old are you? Haven’t I always taken care of you, all of these years? Look at all you’ve been through in your life. Wasn’t I always there for you? Why, then, do you doubt Me now?!”

Prior to writing this article, I sent an email out to a great many Christian leaders. I was seeking help in research, and asked the question: “Can you cite any examples of when God did not provide for His people?” I received quite a few responses, but no one was able to give a single example of God not caring for His children. One man said, “Wow. Good luck with that one! I’ve only been a Christian 21 years, but I can’t think of a single instance of God not providing for a Christian. It will be interesting to see the responses.”

Several people cited those who suffered and died for their faith (including Christ’s disciples), but that wasn’t what I was asking. Scripture tells us we will suffer persecution for our faith in Christ. It’s to be expected. And we should count it all “joy.” Countless thousands have given their lives for their faith and studies show that persecution of Christians is greater now than any other time in history. Others brought up famines (past, present and future); one person mentioned the Great Depression here in America; several mentioned the tribulation of the “end times.”

No doubt we live in a fallen world. It’s no longer God’s ideal “habitat for humanity.” Sin has ruined it. But He still watches over and protects those who are His. He still hears and answers the prayers of the righteous. So then, just as the Bible tells us, our anxieties and worries are the products of our own faithlessness. Much like the Israelites when God brought them out of Egypt.

One friend observed: “time and time again God provided and did wonderful and miraculous things for the people of Israel, yet each time when they were faced with a crisis, they cried out in disbelief that God would actually come through. In Exodus 16, the Israelites said, ‘if only we had died by the Lord’s hand in Egypt! There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assembly to death.’ Verse 4 goes on to tell us how God provided manna from heaven with very strict instructions on how it was to be dealt with. God even tells them that He will test them to see whether they will follow His instructions. Of course this wasn’t good enough. They wanted meat. (So He even provided meat for them in the desert).

“The people of Israel are continuously faced with a crisis that they cannot meet by their own means. Each time they are faced with an impossible obstacle, God provides for them with His incredible power. Do they remember the last time that God delivered them? NO. Each time when a crisis comes up, starting at the banks of the Red Sea, all they can think is, ‘I want to go back to slavery.’ As God moves them forth through the waters of the Red Sea, provides fresh drinking water where there should be none, provides food where there should be none, these people cannot remember how God protected and provided. You would think that after they saw God spread the waters of the Red Sea they would believe all things are possible, but sadly, that was not the case.

“We know that the people of Israel had to wander through the desert for forty years. Forty years is a long time to walk considering the journey only would have needed 17 days to complete. Why did God make them walk and wander for forty years? The answer is because it took forty years for them to trust God. I believe we would all like to think that we would not have had to wander forty years in the desert to learn these lessons if we had been there. Unfortunately, speaking for myself, I know that’s not the case. It took me forty years to see the blessings that God had given me in my life, to recognize that this was His doing. It took me forty years to learn to believe that the Bible is truly God’s Word. It took me forty years to understand the importance of prayer each day. It took me forty years to know that God works all things for good. It took me forty years to realize truly who Jesus is and what He did for me with an understanding that comes from the heart and not the mind. It took me forty years to realize that God is sovereign…”

Another Christian leader noted, “God never abandons us. Jesus says in Matthew 28:20, ‘…I am with you always…’ God does, however, turn aside from evil — for a Holy God cannot dwell with ungodliness….but while God may turn away for a season, we are never abandoned forever. God constantly seeks us, finds us where we are and calls us home to Him. We become lost when we turn our back on Him, deny Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Yes, that’s it. We become lost. That is what our adversary, Satan, wants — for us to be lost. But that is not God’s will for us. We’re not meant to live in fear and anxiety. 2 Timothy 1:7 tells us, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

I’ve come to understand that anxiety and worry is the by-product of a spirit of pride and self-sufficiency. The truth is, we can’t help or save ourselves. Apart from God, we can do nothing. (John 15:4-5). When we become hard hearted and believe we can control and do things in our own power, it’s no wonder we worry and become anxious. Especially as Christians. Because as Christians we KNOW we’re really powerless without Him. As lost sheep who have gone astray, we must return to the fold, to the loving arms of our Provider.

And that’s the cure for this “pandemic” that continues to plague our world — faith and trust in our Lord. Take Him at His word. Believe His word. We say we do, so why, then, don’t we?  In Jesus’ name, cast out the enemy’s evil spirits of unbelief, anxiety, pride, fear, faithlessness and self-sufficiency, and then turn to the Savior, who will rescue you. Isaiah 26:3 says of the Lord, “You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You.” Perfect peace — the perfect antidote to the pandemic of anxiety! And what does the Scripture say we must do to obtain this peace?  Keep our minds steadfast on the Lord, and simply believe and trust Him.  Praise the Lord for His protection and blessings.

[Author’s note: the material below represent the conclusions of this author and should not be attributed necessarily to NewsWithViews.com or its editors.]

“It would be my greatest sadness to see Zionists (Jews) do to Palestinian Arabs much of what Nazis did to Jews.”   —Albert Einstein

Diversity-Inclusion-Equity (DIE) ideology is riddled with inconsistencies and outright hypocrisies. Consider:

Are Palestinians an “Oppressed Group”?  

Students educated in the Ivy League DIE environment thought so. This turned out not to be the case, and if one thinks the matter through, it’s not hard to see why not.

The most powerful lobby in the U.S. is AIPAC (acronym for America-Israel Political Action Committee). Many neocons have dual American-Israeli citizenship. For a time they were the Republican Establishment, promoting war in the Middle East on false pretexts (e.g., Iraq, over WMDs that did not exist), and then came to wonder why they aren’t trusted. One of the most powerful watchdog groups is the Anti-Defamation League, founded the same year as the Federal Reserve — 1913 — and ready to accuse any criticism of Israel as a sign of the critic’s “antisemitism.”

Whether anyone is comfortable with the admission or not (and I admit, I am not), Jews are easily the wealthiest and most powerful identifiable group across corporate media, politics, the entertainment industry, and higher education. Less than two percent of the U.S. population controls over 90 percent of these. Even Donald Trump bows before this less-than-two-percent.

One of the unwritten rules of academia, therefore, goes something like: hands off Israel! Never mind the attempts at boycotting the Jewish state, or movements favoring “divestment.”

Ask Steven Salaita, who is part-Palestinian, a scholar with a number of left-leaning works to his credit. He learned this the hard way. Salaita had accepted a teaching position in Native American Studies at the University of Illinois Champagne-Urbana — presumably a left-leaning institution in a left-leaning state. Following severe criticisms of Israel on Twitter in the wake of Israel’s bombardments of Gaza in 2014, he found his signed contract abruptly withdrawn. He’d already resigned from a previous position and arranged to move to Champagne-Urbana, Ill. with his family.

Salaita filed suit against the university. What came out during the discovery process was that wealthy Jewish donors had threatened to withdraw their donations if Salaita stayed. Money talked.

Salaita found himself jobless. The university settled the lawsuit for $875,000. This did not save his academic career, and he retrained as a bus driver.

Eventually he found a teaching position: overseas, at the American University in Cairo.

Palestinians generally do not appear to count as an “oppressed group” in the American DIE world despite having been kicked violently off their land in the Middle East when (primarily Jewish) global elites created Israel almost three quarters of a century ago and ruthlessly suppressed ever since. Gaza, where over two million Palestinians ended up settling and surviving as best they could, was one of the worst places in the world to live before the recent hostilities began.

Is Israel an “apartheid state”?

Not to Christian Zionists — those who believe present-day Israel is a fulfillment of God’s Old Testament promises, so that present-day Israel has something to do with the Israel of the Old Testament besides geographical location.

A writer whose judgment I’d trusted accused me of falling for “Marxist propaganda” when I invited a number of Christians in my general orbit to consider seriously the apartheid state allegation, in the context of questioning this relationship. But surely the Palestinians have “a few” legitimate gripes — far more, in fact, than American blacks have against American whites, or women against men. There are writers of an intelligent left who have defended the Palestinian cause, but they are few and far between in comparison to those who defend every black cause, every feminist cause, every gay cause, and now every “trans” cause.

The Diversity Most Worth Having …

… is a diversity of ideas, a diversity in thought, not a mere diversity of faces and lifestyles.

However uncomfortable this is. Truth doesn’t have to respect our comfort zones.

We need a diversity of worldviews, as well as political and socioeconomic philosophies, in an environment in which those with differing opinions are encouraged to communicate with one another in a spirit of mutual interest and cooperation, not conflict and hostility.

Critical reflection on our own ideas, and their mutual examination in light of the ideas of other, makes them better. Or shows what is wrong with them and why they ought to be scrapped. Either way, we get better.

This militates in favor of pluralism.

It supports the idea of institutions welcoming both Christianity and alternatives to it, and rejecting the unbridled hostility to everything Christian we see in contemporary academia and culture.

It supports conservatism as well as liberalism and even leftism. It rejects the subtext accompanying every job description such as the one above: no conservatives need apply!

Believe it or not, there are folks out there who self-identify as leftist whom I don’t consider crazy. This is because they get some things right. They have their eyes on power systems, destructive processes, and dysfunctional arrangements. Their criticisms are pragmatic rather than moral. They understand, e.g., that massive and worsening economic inequality is destabilizing if those at the bottom can claim credibly that those at the top “cheated” to get there.

If you need an example of such a thinker, consider Greek author and economist Yanis Varoufakis, best known for his brief stint as Finance Minister with the Syriza Party in 2014. He tried to stand up to the powerful European Central Bank, renegotiate his country’s debt, and work to end the austerity that had impoverished Greece. He’s now an economics professor at the University of Athens and helps head up a pro-democracy organization in Europe (DiEM-25); and yes, he is a vocal supporter of the Palestinian cause.

How did I learn of him? Back in 2015 I penned an essay entitled “Technofeudalism Rising.” This essay is no longer available (for whatever reason). A year or so ago, I learned that Varoufakis was working on a book entitled Techno-Feudalism: What Killed Capitalism, published late last year. Naturally I was more than merely intrigued. But that’s a longer story than I can get into here.

Varoufakis is no Christian. He thinks the EU can be reformed. He has other ideas I can’t countenance. I read him anyway, because (1) he’s a colorful writer who integrates family history and personal experience into his narrative, as I sometimes do, and as opposed to abstract argumentation, and (2) he’s doubtless right that the Anglo-European oligarchic structures of economic power are sweeping us all into a feudal-type order based on what he calls “cloud capital.” In this order “you’ll have no privacy, own nothing, but be happy.”

A close examination of Varoufakis’s narrative and conclusions alongside those of — shall we say — more mainstream economists, would illustrate the kind of diversity I want: a diversity of ideas, of thought, of worldviews.

But where, and how?

We Need New Institutions.

I don’t think American academia is reformable from the inside. Well-publicized horror stories have multiplied over recent years. Nothing here is new. Claudine Gay is just the latest embarrassment, and she continues to have a parade of defenders decrying the “racism” of the “conservative movement” that let to her ouster. You’d almost think conservatives had social power beyond a few think tanks!

Job descriptions such as the one above continue. They are crystal clear about the kind of person they want. No conservatives need apply! I chose that one because in writing DIE directly into the institution’s job requirements, it was unusually explicit.

Trying to reform institutions through what amount to hostile takeovers is not worth it, and not likely to succeed in any event. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis tried to do this with New College, located near Sarasota, Fla. Instead of reforms, the institution faced faculty resignations and turned into a war zone. Is this really the sort of environment where quality education in the above sense can ensue? DeSantis, as do so many (and as I did!), underestimated the power of the cultural left, in both woke corporations such as Disney and in academia.

We need new institutions — parallel institutions, as one element of a parallel economy, based on assumptions of the desirability of human freedom (especially freedom of speech and inquiry), free markets instead of corporatism and technocracy, and, I’d argue, a study of those things we did right back in the 1940s and 1950s that made the U.S. economy the strongest in human history — without today’s computing power, mind you! — and set us on track towards even better things. If there’s a role for government in this, then let’s review those areas where government is credited as having helped out in some way and find out, again, what went right and why. Can we do things better the next go round?

Can we circumvent what then threw us off track: e.g., elitist maneuvers that were already paving the way for a more controlled society working especially through public schools (the “progressive education” movement), creeping collectivism more broadly, encroaching secular materialism and the Jacobinism and death culture that invariably comes with that.

To date, we have one institution that fits the bill as the kind of parallel institution I have in mind. It’s called the University of Austin (UATX), based in Austin, Texas, had held a few well-received programs, and plans to admit its first regular class of students fall semester of this year. UATX has received thousands of inquiries from faculty elsewhere. This is a sure indication of the level of discontent that exists within mainstream academia and a sign that one such institution is not enough.

As the slow and painful collapse of DIE-driven institutions continues in the wake of the Claudine Gay debacle, new ones must arise to pick up the ball. Other things being equal, they will cease to be parallel institutions and become a new educational mainstream.

You will know, finally, that if — say — a black woman sits in the president’s chair at one of these institutions, she will be there because of hard, honest work, and not because she checked a box.

*My inversion of DEI to get DIE is deliberate, of course.

The creepy transgender movement has crept into all areas of modern Western life. All sorts of assorted genders and gender-fluid categories are constantly being created for public consideration, consumption and (required) adoption. These include binary, non-binary, queer, bisexual, homosexual, intersexual, pansexual, asexual, along with trans this and that, that is, people in the process of transforming into this and that reality at the time. As usual, big pharma, the culture-mulcher Marxists, the Freudian-style mind benders, along with avaricious surgeons, are the main players and, as a result, the beneficiaries in this production of the frightful, the tragic and the absurd.

Pubic-oriented  “government” schools promote genital surgeries, prostitution, sex novelties, and violent sex. It is pushed on children from kindergarten through college, avoiding parental knowledge – much less consent! – where possible. Schools set up “queer” contact points which have become today’s equivalent of guidance counselors, a sort of a secular priesthood in which the callow and deceived can come and confess their newfound abnormal proclivities and receive affirmation therefor. Hormone treatments, genital surgeries, and mastectomies are promoted and even often provided. Schools have “lie”braries giving pupils access to books loaded with pornographic images of all sorts of sordid sex practices, associated violence, and prostitution. Associations and groups across the homosexual and transsexual lobbying spectrum provide windfall grants to fund abnormality and depravity while the FedGov provides funds and guidance on promoting alternative sexual scenarios. School parties, school trips, and even parents evenings are organized to foster the transgender bender culture/cult to indoctrinate the “influencers.” In just the last 16 years, the number of sex reassignment operations has increased more than 20-fold in Germany, and it can’t be much different or better in the globohomo center, the USA.

Depending on the complexity of the makeover, as much as 10 surgeries have to be carried out to achieve the intended sex change objective – or at least its outward manifestation since no true “sex change” can take place. This “health  program” will result in consequences that range from infertility, deep scars (both physically and mentally) and inflammation to mental derangements that often result in suicidal thoughts and actions. One “trans man” shot up her previous grammar school killing both children and adults while her “manifesto” regarding her actions was concealed from the public. Meanwhile, videos of trans people enthusiastically showing off their new bodies make the rounds of social media, that new source of solace for the lonely, and a major source of human conversion and perversion. By this means, entire groups can simultaneously come to the conclusion that they are transsexual if for no other reason than to give their previously hollow lives some sort of meaning. But, in reality, the actually sexually weird comprise only a fraction of 1% of the overall population. This means that the number of what might be seen as medically justified sexual interventions is infinitesimally small. “Social contagion” is actually the most common of modern maladies, and movements can be created in a New York Minute as electronic messages vice germs can spread instantly taking advantage of people who have little or no self worth.

One of the primary reasons that the transsexual movement has been able to establish itself so widely in society is that gender reassignment modalities are a huge market for the pharmaceutical industry, that is expected to grow at rates of up to 25% per year over the next several years. The super-rich such as the Soros clan and Warren Buffet, finance the transgender lobby and organizations. Pharmaceutical companies donate millions to the LGBTQ* movement. They even “buy” universities, hospitals, and medical facilities with millions in donations. They set up “chairs” for transgender studies in prestigious universities. The notorious billionaire drug manufacturing Pritzger family is one of the main investors in LGBTQ* clinics. The transgender lobby is seeking to define “trans rights” as human rights in order to palm off the costs of gender surgery to the general public while preventing any anti-trans opinions from being considered “acceptable” in the public forum.

Bringing the transsexual movement into the consciousness of children is done by all means possible such as in filthy, flimsy, films; TV; and books. Disney, for example, wants to make sure that every future movie will have “trans” people as a staple requirement and, possibly eventually, make that way of life “normal” and “ordinary.” Powerful black “trans women” seem to be the ideal role models, combining as they do, many abnormal characteristics as possible in one person, thus creating an ideal heroine. Children’s books that propagate gender reassignment surgery are emerging. Drag queens are reading stories in which lonely people feel loved and understood as soon as they declare they are transsexual. In a complete inversion of values, guidelines for parents that explain the dangers of trans activism and its cult-like characteristics are classified as “harmful to minors.” One such guidebook is called “Desist, Detrans, Detox: Getting Your Child out of the Gender Cult” by Maria Keffler. The thrust of all of this is to make any child with an “issue” (as most children do have!) believe that it can be overcome if only they are admitted into the “trans” community.

Gender ideology is being pushed onto society by perverts and profiteers through their money and influence and with the help of the same virtue-signaling Karens and Kevins who supported the COVID lockdowns. Yet, the entire ideology contradicts all common sense, disregards all decency and all propriety and barring the victory of evil as the result of our apathy, it will ultimately fail! But until then, the relentless drive and uniformity with which trans-activism is approaching children throughout the culture, will mentally and physically distort millions and drag down decent society. It is high time to defend and protect our children, and to publicly expose and define the devastating effects that these evil masterminds are foisting upon us all.

APC’s good friend, Lynne Taylor, the Common Core Diva, has written another new article and I’m pleased to share it with you.  —Tom DeWeese, President

Greetings, my freedom loving Americans!

Welcome to 2024?! While you think I might be wrong about celebrating a new year, I’m very concerned by the ‘opportunities’ the US government, our States, and our local areas will use in 2024 to advance the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) from the UN (United Nations).

While we know that the push in our culture has been advancing us ever closer to these Goals, 2024 is going to bring about some REALLY big movements. As far as education goes, every single one of the plans being made will CENTER energy on educating, not only our PreK-college students, but every single citizen in our nation. This will DIRECTLY go in concert with the other countries (member states of the UN, just like America). So, no matter where you live, where you are reading this from:

PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR SURROUNDINGS

My goal, in this article, is to give you ideas for places to identify just how ‘far out there’ your town or school will be going in 2024 and beyond. I recognize that most of you who read my blog are very aware of what’s going on. However, every one of us knows several people who are clueless, but content to just follow the leader in what’s going on. It’s my hope that by your conversations with these people, that the light bulb goes off for them. If that’s not possible, well, then you have extra information to help you prepare.

While we’ll identify places you wouldn’t think are being used for advancing the SDGs, we’ll also find solutions to fight back against this most unholy tidal wave heading for us all.

Transportation:

Americans, we all know that the global mantra is that gas cars are bad, right? Well, think about the public transportation we also use. School buses are gas powered, most city buses, taxis, etc. However, according to the SDGs it’s the single family household that’s the biggest worry. We go to too many places. Back in Sept. 2023, a joint effort between South Carolina and North Carolina’s Depts. of Transportation sent out a glossy giant postcard mailer for my opportunity to participate in a Household Travel Survey. The guise was to answer a few questions about your travel routes and you’ve been rewarded with a gift card with a nominal amount. Sounds great, right?

The sales pitch was simple: Improving community travel options, NOT improving the roads! Oh, and as a bonus more incentives to go along with the agenda can also be yours in a later stage!! This particular survey isn’t easily accessible (you have to log in to answer), however, it also wants to dive into racial matters as well as your income level. As far as that gift card? All taxes and fees associated are on YOU.

>From the US Dept of Transportation, the national Blueprint to ‘decarbonize’ our roads. If you visit the link, be sure to download the fact sheet. There you’ll be able to see why an innocent survey is key to the Blueprint (it’s about unity aka collectivism). You should also notice that not a single category is provided for personal cars. Not only is the US DoT heading this up, but it’s been joined by the US Dept of Housing and Urban Development and the Environmental Protection Agency. (All of these are unconstitutional and every one of these agencies is in the UN’s back pocket).

QUESTION: How does this impact education at all levels? What about in the culture?

Answer: Curriculum and tests geared for climate actions/Look for programs, events and propaganda promoting climate justice

In 2021, the US Dept of Education, enacted Climate Change programs still in use. Also, many US Federal Agencies and their NGOs (Non Governmental Offices) have ‘free’ educational resources for any school type to use.

IF you live outside the US, look at your different local, ‘state’ or federal levels for education resources on climate change.

QUESTION: Where can I look in my community to identify this type of surveying? Especially if I’m not in the USA?

Answer: Search your town’s website and budget for any funding or programming supporting ‘greening up the roads’ or ‘removing cars’. Sometimes the funding from state or federal levels will have a catchy sort of name, so that it sounds great, but isn’t. Increasing toll road fees, or personal property or road use taxes are all ‘innocent’ ways of discouraging you from driving. (Example: My local town recently approved a 10 year plan for more bike routes, using funds from higher government. It’s called PEDAL.)

Action Item: The next SDG Transportation global meeting is set for April 2024. Read the UN letter for “Transportation Week” and plan awareness events or even respectful and peaceful protests.

Action Item: Read the Transportation SDG Knowledge Hub information, found here (https://sdg.iisd.org/issues/transport/). In short, transportation will impact SDGs #1 (poverty), #3 (education safe routes), #7 (energy), #9 (infrastructure), #11 (urban access), #12 (fossil fuel use), and #13 (greenhouse gas).

Art Around Town:

Americans, we all like pretty things. They help us brighten up a dull day. Sometimes we are the ones creating those pretty things, but what happens when the art you see isn’t for creative expression, but driving home the ‘responsibility’ of your part in embracing the SDGs? Think it can’t happen? It already has!

For example, in Texas, at the University of Texas-Dallas, a joint combination of SDG #3 and #4 (Good Health for All and Quality Education for All) which used art murals to remind students that the SDGs must be followed.

Another example is a public library art statue in Durham, NC titled “Purple STEAM”. It’s goal? To uplift and celebrate the United Nations insertion of STEM in education AND our communities. As you’ve learned here on my blog, STEM, STEAM, and STREAM are all extensions of the UN into our communities as tools to advance the SDGs. From the SDG Toolkit’s pages, written years ago at the Univ. of TN, the goal then, is still being used today: cause UN activity for support of the SDGs from within our local areas. Local areas engaging is far less intrusive than an all out UN forced acceptance, right? My 2021 article I’ve included here (https://www.commoncorediva.com/2021/06/17/educratic-summations/), goes into more detail, as well as link you to the Tool Kit article.

Throughout places like Durham and Dallas, we are seeing less of a presence of the one true God and more of the accepted goddesses and social justice icons. Community wide health clinics are now more visible than a sanctuary of worship. Public private partnerships (P3s) are largely responsible, but check your city’s budget for their collusion into art installations and where they are.

Action item: Review the color psychology of the SDGs, I’ve written and exposed them many times over.

Action item: Read from the UN’s website, how art is being used to advance climate change and SO much more!

Government, Locally, Right?

Back in 2020, on my blog, I wrote about supranationalism from the perspective of the UN’s usurpation of our local governments, as well as at the state and federal levels.

Since then, the usurpation isn’t hiding whatsoever. It’s ‘loud and proud’. Being boldly displayed. Why? Because, to shift culture you must shift perspective. Perspective that includes freedom is bad and collectivism is ideal. Perspective that creation is an almighty god, not the Creator. Perspective that tells us the SDGs are for our good, not our detriment.

But what if I’m not in the USA, is my government also being turned against me? Certainly! The UN’s SDGs depend and demand complete compliance with ZERO exceptions. That’s why education was chosen by the UN to be the ‘chief change agent’. Because it can reach the most number of people all at the same time. Every form of government is being sacrificed to become managed by the UN. It’s called “Supranationalism”. It’s also a way to become a ‘global citizen’.

Speaking of the government, what about housing and zoning districts for businesses? What about private home ownership? All around us we’re seeing towns, cities, rural areas transformed into types of UN hubs. Deceptive uses of culture are in play here. “Economy zones”, ‘opportunity zones’, ‘prosperity zones’ and even ‘inclusion zones’ and being created via local legislation, state funded projects and yes, P3s from the federal government on down the line. Workforce housing is also becoming more visible. These are being completed as a RoI for those P3s (Return on Investment) and all in the name of community health, well being and development. Government agencies which traditionally had zero impact on the family are now in full use to micro-manage families. Along with all this ‘government help’ comes mind manipulation, especially due to the accepted belief that COVID somehow rendered us all in need of mental health!

Action item: Read the UN’s 10 Point Agenda List on housing. Then look up the International Habitat for Humanity website. They have an instant downloadable 21 page report on the SDGs and housing for all. SDGs directly impacted by housing are 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16 and 17. Indirectly related SDGs are 2 & 4.

You Are The Solution!

Warriors, all around us we see not only what I’ve listed above, but the SDGs inserted into healthcare, technology and even more. Change agents are also being inserted into our towns and governments. Schools see the biggest presence of these intruders of our lives. Why? Because as we creep ever closer to 2030, the UN will increase its evil into our worlds UNLESS we stop it! Think of it this way, the wave of change agents is an updated version of the village raising your child. As stated above, the school is the easiest target for the change agents. Schools from daycare to college are involved. Schools paid for by your tax dollars as well as the ones out of your own pocket. CULTURE shifts don’t stop at the public school gate. The shift is prevalent in every part of your community.

So what CAN you do? Inform others! Know the UN’s calendar (for example, Sept 2024 will bring about new meetings and new SDG action items)!

Review where your taxes are going! Get involved in standing up for your family, in your community! Band together with others who are just as aware as you are!!

Suzanne Harp, a formidable Texas’ 3rd Congressional District candidate, has been making waves with her dynamic and multi-faceted campaign strategy. From community engagement to fundraising events, Harp is leaving no stone unturned in her pursuit to represent the interests of her constituents.

In the face of an increasingly spendthrift Congress and concerns about corrupt leaders, Harp is prepared to use her experience to fight for the country. Her dedication to reclaiming the Republican Party is palpable, promising a fresh voice that blends business acumen with a commitment to constitutional principles.

Suzanne Harp opposes several government mandates, particularly those related to personal freedoms and public education:

Mask and Vaccine Mandates: Harp strongly opposes government mandates regarding using masks or proof of vaccination. She believes the government should refrain from requiring individuals to adhere to these regulations. She also criticizes using private entities to enforce these policies, such as the OSHA regulation proposed by Joe Biden in late 2021.

Parental Choice in Education: Harp supports a policy of “Parental Choice in Education with Funding Following the Student,” allowing parents to choose their child’s educational path, including public, private, or charter schools. This policy would allocate education funding based on the student, allowing parents to direct resources to their chosen educational institution.

Vocational Skills Training: Harp supports expanding vocational skills training in schools to prepare students for the rapidly evolving job market demands. She believes that this initiative not only addresses the skills gap but also enhances workforce readiness.

Woke Indoctrination: Harp supports common sense policies that counteract the influence of the “woke” movement within schools and defunds ‘Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion’ (DEI) initiatives. She believes that the survival of the democratic republic hinges upon vigilance against the “woke” agenda.

Abortion Laws: Harp supports states having the right to enact laws reflecting the value of life, including laws on late-term abortions. She opposes the House of Representatives passing of H.R. 3755, which abolishes state laws on late-term abortions.

Harp’s candidacy comes at a critical time, addressing several pressing issues. Her constituents appreciate her principled conservatism, recognizing that this very foundation has made the United States a standard-bearer for democracy and freedom.

Suzanne Harp’s involvement in the political landscape of Collin County has been evident in her recent campaign events. One noteworthy event was her attendance at the Collin County GOP Executive Committee Meeting on January 16, 2024. The open session allowed the public to hear brief speeches from elected officials and candidates, providing a platform for Harp to share her vision for the district.

Suzanne Harp recognized that fundraising plays a crucial role in any political campaign. Some events serve as a linchpin for campaign activities, enabling candidates to garner financial support for their initiatives and reach a broader audience. Collin County residents must do their civic duty by helping Suzanne financially to run her campaign.

In addition to the formal gatherings, Harp took a personal approach to connect with her supporters. Organizing a “Meet and Greet” event with her family allowed constituents to interact with her on a personal level, fostering a stronger bond between the candidate and the community.

The initiation of early voting on February 20th marked a pivotal phase in Harp’s campaign. It allowed her to engage with voters directly, discussing the pressing issues that matter to the people of Texas’ 3rd Congressional District.

Suzanne Harp’s campaign message revolves around defending Texas from what she perceives as threats from the Radical Left and RINO Republicans. Her advocacy includes fighting for religious liberties, ensuring election integrity, strengthening border security, combating human trafficking, addressing runaway spending, and opposing unconstitutional mandates.

A significant milestone in Harp’s campaign was the release of a political advertisement funded by the Suzanne Victory Fund. This joint fundraising committee, which includes Suzanne for Congress and Harp PAC, spotlighted her campaign and the key issues she champions.

Harp’s campaign strategy is well-coordinated, incorporating various elements to connect with voters and promote her political agenda.

Suzanne Harp prioritizes personal connections with voters through frequent campaign events and meet-and-greets. This approach allows her to understand constituents’ concerns, building trust and rapport within the community.

Harp uses her platform to articulate her political views and campaign promises. Defending 2nd Amendment rights, protecting American children, securing the border, promoting election integrity, and addressing various issues are integral to her political agenda.

Recognizing the power of social media, Harp actively utilizes these platforms to reach a broader audience. In addition, her encouragement of volunteers to contribute to social media efforts demonstrates a commitment to modern campaign techniques.

A dedicated team of volunteers supports Harp in various campaign activities, from distributing yard signs to door-knocking and making calls. This collaborative effort amplifies her campaign’s reach and impact.

Harp distinguishes herself as a Washington outsider, emphasizing a fresh perspective and a unique approach to addressing the country’s challenges. This positioning aligns with a growing sentiment among voters for change and a break from traditional political norms.

Political advertisements funded by the Suzanne Victory Fund visually represent Harp’s campaign and the issues she stands for. These advertisements play a crucial role in reaching voters across various platforms.

A comprehensive and dynamic strategy characterizes Suzanne Harp’s campaign for Texas’ 3rd Congressional District. Her engagement with the community, emphasis on fundraising, promotion of critical issues, use of social media, reliance on volunteers, and positioning as a Washington outsider collectively contribute to a campaign that resonates with voters.

While specific challenges Harp faced during her campaign are not explicitly outlined, the absence of such information does not diminish the significance of her efforts—the success of any campaign hinges on effective communication, community engagement, and a well-executed strategy. Suzanne Harp appears to be actively pursuing these goals, presenting herself as a formidable candidate in the upcoming elections.

Suzanne Harp stands out as a beacon of moral conservatism. It is time for wise and patriotic voters to rise and stand behind her, for Suzanne Harp is the congresswoman Texas needs—a true embodiment of the principles that have made this nation great.

Voting for Suzanne is voting for America to survive.

To fully grasp the reality of the current assault on national sovereignty and security, in the USA and all sovereign countries around the world, you must study Chairman Mao’s Cultural Revolution. What the global cabal is doing to every sovereign country today is taken directly from Mao’s Cultural Revolution playbook.

The cultural revolution in the USA has been underway for decades now, in our public education system, the fake news media, social media, the entertainment industry, churches, and especially in the college lecture halls. Success of the global Marxist revolution underway is entirely dependent upon two factors…

• Mass indoctrination via tightly censored public information access
• Cultural divisions by every means available, political partisanship, race, creed, religion, ethnicity, economic envy, personality politics, cancel culture, gender identity wars, on and on and on…

Of course, in both cases, these two critical tools of the coup d’état trade are dependent upon an ignorant electorate, dumbed-down and drugged-up voting blocs, Pavlov trained to vote their self-interests at every opportunity. In order to utterly destroy a free people from within, you must pit citizen against citizen, divide the population, cause endless chaos, create perceptions of grave threats, and scare citizens into silence, which is then interpreted as your consent.

In 2008, a nobody from nowhere with a totally blank history and resume’ seized control of the Democrat Party and the Oval Office, with an open promise to “fundamentally transform America” into something it was never intended to be, Barack Hussein Obama. It’s the only true words he ever spoke…

The next eight years, 2008-2016, had proven to be the most destructive years in American history, until 2021. Voters had already been dumbed-down enough to vote for a person with no authenticated past, and no past executive experience, who didn’t even show up for his brief time in the Senate, on the basis of “electing the first black President” despite knowing that he isn’t black.

The utter disaster and chaos we see everywhere today is a direct result of the 2008 election cycle, when a global Marxist con man seized the Oval Office and set out to “fundamentally transform America.” Obama also promised to create his own “civilian army,” known today as Black Lives Matter and ANTIFA, street mercenaries called to action via free Obama phones. How did you think Hamas supporters were able to hit the streets with pre-printed pro-Hamas shirts, posters, and flags in less than 24-hours after the 10/7/23 Hamas attacks on Israel? It’s all at the direction of the master community organizer!

On November 3, 2020, Barack Hussein Obama was essentially elected (via massive illegal election procedures) to a 3^rd term, under the guise of a Biden-Harris administration. Only a fool believes that Biden or Harris has the mental ability to run a summer lemonade stand. Obama runs the Biden Administration and every awake thinking person in the world knows it. Only the totally mindless blind loyal Marxists still supporting O’Biden, fail to grasp this reality.

Despite knowing that the 2020 elections were rotten with illegal “Covid” election procedures in every state, State officials and members of Congress on both sides of the aisle confirmed the unlawful election of Joe Biden as President on January 6, 2021, and Obama returned to the White House on January 20, 2021. The entire Biden staff are all former Obama staffers.

Since then, the nation has been systematically divided more than ever before in history as Obama’s Biden Administration completed the process of weaponizing all federal branches and agencies against the American people.

Face it, they have succeeded in taking your country and freedom from you in broad daylight. They divided you and conquered you already, and that’s why millions of Americans have lost hope for their future and why young people look ahead and see no future for themselves. It’s why the final death blow to the USA will be the flooding of millions of foreign military age males spread all across the country, to replace you.

They have no intention of ever closing our borders. You’re watching them totally erase all national borders, as they work around the clock to meld the USA into the global commune where “you will own nothing and be happy.” O’Biden’s so-called “immigration reform” is nothing more than an attempt to legalize all illegal entry to our country and grant every illegal invader citizenship and voting rights. They have pre-labeled everyone opposed, a “racist” and “bigot.”

While Americans are busy fighting each other over nonsense, the people in power who caused the divisions with great purpose, have already seized your country. That’s why we see the Supreme Court rule that Texas has no Right to protect its territory or citizens from foreign invasion, death, and destruction.

You allowed them to divide you, and the minute you did that, you lost!

Of course, every problem on earth has a solution. The solution for division is unity, and that’s why they have taken unprecedented measures to destroy the most unifying political figure in recent history, Trump. As you watch Trump continue to sweep the GOP nomination by wide margins in state after state, you must realize that like him or not, he continues to unify freedom-loving Americans from all voter demographics. This is why globalists are determined to destroy Trump!

Because “a house divided against itself cannot stand,” we cannot afford to remain a house divided.

No one can take America away from the American people. The people must surrender it.

2024 is the final hour…Americans will either rise united against all enemies, foreign and domestic, or they will lose their country forever, divided and conquered.

The time for choosing has arrived…

When the “conservative” media are not debating the antics of Taylor Swift, Bill Maher and Saturday Night Live, they are demanding that Joe Biden further deepen U.S. military involvement in the Middle East. “Biden Faces pressure to Respond Forcibly to Iran” is a constant headline on Fox.

As if the drumbeat for an escalation of Biden’s war with Iran is not enough to completely depress the American people, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell is negotiating a Biden “border deal” that can easily be accomplished by Biden alone, by returning to Trump policies. McConnell would rather give Biden a political victory with a bogus bill than demand that Biden fulfill his legal and constitutional responsibility to protect American sovereignty.

At the same time, McConnell is demanding more war in the Middle East, declaring that the United States must impose “serious, crippling costs – not only on front-line terrorist proxies, but on their Iranian sponsors who wear American blood as a badge of honor.”

McConnell knows that Congress has failed to pass a Declaration of War to justify any such action. Senator Tom Cotton knows this as well. Yet he goes on Fox to demand that Biden launch military attacks on Iran without congressional approval.

This unfolding disaster is another example of how the United States tries to manipulate various Muslim terrorist groups and regimes fighting one another, with the result being more dead American soldiers and wounded warriors. Israel is the only Middle East country than has a democracy, and we had better understand that basic fact.

Five Americans have already died during Biden’s war with Iran and dozens have been wounded. More carnage is on the way and nothing will be accomplished as a result of further American intervention under this president.

The typical U.S. response is to play into Russia’s hands by supporting one Marxist terrorist group over another.  Hence, Biden wants Israel to accept a Palestinian state that can openly import weapons from Russia, China, and Iran.  Both Hamas and Fatah (the Palestinian Authority) depend on Moscow for support. Such a policy is suicide for the state of Israel.

Biden’s approach is a continuation of Barack Hussein Obama’s disastrous policies. Obama supported Al Qaeda in Libya, leading to the Benghazi massacre, and then armed the Marxist terrorist PKK/YPG Kurdish forces in Syria fighting Islamic Turkey, a NATO member.

Consider the current crisis being manufactured by the Biden Administration so that Biden can look like a tough war-time president, rally the American people, and save his presidency while U.S. soldiers become cannon fodder in that effort.

The Reuters news agency has run a story, “What Is Tower 22, Site of the Attack on US Troops in Jordan?” We learn that it was a support base for the Al Tanf garrison, which is located across the border in Syria, and which houses a small number of U.S. troops. “Tanf had been key in the fight against Islamic State [ISIS],” the story explains.

We learn from other sources, such as the Wall Street Journal and CNN, that the Biden Administration “secretly warned Iran that ISIS was planning a potential terror attack inside Iran’s borders” before the group carried out its attack near the burial site of slain military commander Qasem Soleimani on January 3.

But Esmail Qaani, the head of IRGC Qods Force, blamed “bloodthirsty criminals” encouraged by “the US and Zionists.”

If the U.S. secretly warned Iran about the attack in advance, you cannot expect the State Department to admit it, since an Iranian-backed group has responded with an attack on a U.S. base supposedly monitoring and battling ISIS.

Based on the leaks to the Wall Street Journal and CNN, the U.S. base has been used to collect intelligence to protect Iran. That means his illegal war constitutes a treasonous and an impeachable offense.

In effect, if the stories are true, the U.S. is defending Iran while Iran kills our troops.

On January 25, the Biden State Department was asked about this:

QUESTION: According to the report by Wall Street Journal, the U.S. warned about the recent attack in Iran and shared information with Iranian Government. Does this imply intelligence cooperation between the U.S. and IRGC?

1. VEDENT PATEL: I don’t have any comment or any public assessment to offer on that time. Again, we – based on all the information that was available, we do believe that that terrorist attack in Kerman was a terrorist attack. It had all the hallmarks of a ISIS attack, and we reiterate our sympathy for the victims and their loved ones.

Yet, the victims of of this approach are American troops and their loved ones.

There is another analysis of what happened, which also helps explain why the Iranian regime blames Israel and America.

The website known as Iran International Newsroom reports, “Thousands of Iranians on social media have claimed the attack was organized by the Islamic Republic itself in an attempt to further its domestic and foreign policies.” These Iranians cite the absence of Soleimani’s family members and high-ranking political and military officials at Qasem Soleimani’s tomb during the terrorist attack.

This makes sense. Russia’s Putin used the same strategy when the KGB in 1999 staged a series of bombings of Russian apartment buildings, killing ordinary Russians and blaming it on Muslims, as the KGB solidified its control of the regime and rallied the Russian people behind it.

The only sensible U.S. policy in the Middle East is to support Israel, in the same way Nixon supplied Israel the weapons it needed to survive and win the 1973 war with the Arab states. The Soviet Union supported the anti-Israel side.

Red Jihad: Moscow’s Final Solution for America and Israel is the book from America’s Survival, Inc. that examines Soviet/Russian strategy. Nothing in the Middle East makes sense unless you analyze how many of the Arab/Muslim states and the Muslim terrorist groups are Marxist in orientation and based on the concept of “liberation” from the West.

Consider that President Jimmy Carter abandoned the Shah of Iran, leading to the takeover by the Russian-supported terrorists now running the country and on the verge of acquiring a nuclear weapon. The only “alternative” to the regime is the MEK, or Mujahideen-e Khalq of Iran, a Marxist-oriented Islamic opposition group run by a Muslim feminist. Some Republicans support this communist outfit.

To understand how the Russians benefit from U.S. involvement in the Middle East, remember that Obama’s CIA had set up the YPG, a front of the Communist terrorist PPK, and then integrated that outfit into another front, the so-called Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). This was supposedly an alternative to the pro-Russian Assad regime.

In the end, Obama’s legacy was up to 500,000 dead in Syria, Libya became a disaster, and Germany under Angela Merkel welcomed a Muslim invasion of Europe.

The PBS Newshour ran an interview with Obama’s CIA Director, John Brennan, in which he called the outcome “regrettable.” It only benefitted Russia.

On what legal and constitutional basis did Obama take America to war in Syria anyway?

When Trump shut down Obama’s illegal and costly secret war in Syria, it was big news, as the New York Times acknowledged in an August 2017 story, “Behind the Sudden Death of a $1 Billion Secret C.I.A. War in Syria.” The paper said Trump ended the $1 billion program, after reports surfaced that some of the CIA-supplied weapons had somehow “ended up in the hands” of Al Qaeda.

The Obama-Biden policies do not benefit the United States and Trump wisely reversed them. If they are not reversed again, we can anticipate more disabled American veterans, if they are able to avoid losing their lives during Biden’s re-election campaign.

• When Congress is ambiguous, who decides what they mean?
• Who decided that when Congress is silent, the executive agency decides for them?
• Is this Chevron Deference constitutional?

For decades, Congress has been turning over more and more lawmaking power to the Executive Branch. Frequently this is done by legislation giving the head of some agency or department the power to establish rules which have the force of law. What happens when the legislation doesn’t explicitly say that such-and-such department has the power to make a certain rule? To deal with this, courts have come up with something called “Chevron Deference”. While the case Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce deals with who pays the salaries of federal observers on fishing boards, a more fundamental questioning of the court’s deference to government agencies’ interpretation of law is the cornerstone of the petitioner’s arguments.

Let’s start off with a discussion of what is commonly called “Chevron”. This precedent comes from the 1984 case Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v NRDC.

Chevron Deference

The primary holding of the Chevron case is:

A government agency must conform to any clear legislative statements when interpreting and applying a law, but courts will give the agency deference in ambiguous situations as long as its interpretation is reasonable.

Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. NRDC, 467 U.S. 837 (1984)

The idea seems simple enough. Government agencies must follow any clear legislative statements when they apply a law, However, if there is an ambiguous situation, the courts will defer to the interpretation of the agency as long as it’s reasonable. After all, you cannot expect any man-made organization to be able to predict every possible permutation of every situation. So it makes sense, if something in a law is ambiguous (capable of being understood in two or more possible senses or ways), somebody has to decide. And technically, there are three possibilities as to who that might be. The courts, the agency, or Congress. Since 1984 the courts have deferred to the agency to make such decisions. As is often the case though, give an agency an inch and they’ll take a mile. Such is true in Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce.

The Petitioner

The petitioners, Loper Bright Enterprises, et. al., were represented at the Supreme Court by Paul D. Clement. He starts his argument with the specifics of the case.

Commercial fishing is hard. Space onboard vehicle — vessels is tight, and margins are tighter still. Therefore, for the — for the — for my clients, having to carry federal observers on board is a burden, but having to pay their salaries is a crippling blow.

Congress recognized as much by strictly limiting the circumstances in which domestic fishing vessels could be saddled with monitoring costs and capping them at 2 to 3 percent of the value of the catch. But the agency here showed no such restraint, requiring monitoring on 50 percent of the trips at a cost of up to 20 percent of their annual returns. Nonetheless, the court below deferred to the agency because it viewed the statute as silent on the “who pays” question.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

Congress established by law that domestic fishing vessels had to be monitored to insure they follow the law, but they didn’t specifically say who was to pay for the monitoring. The Department of Commerce decided that since Congress didn’t say they couldn’t make the fishing vessels pay the monitor’s salaries, they had the statutory authority to do so. As you would expect, the petitioners disagreed.

There is no justification for giving the tie to the government or conjuring agency authority from silence. Both the APA and constitutional avoidance principles call for de novo review, asking only what’s the best reading of the statute. Asking, instead, is the statute ambiguous is fundamentally misguided. The whole point of statutory construction is to bring clarity, not to identify ambiguity.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

Both the Administrative Procedures Act (APA) and the concept of constitutional avoidance (federal courts should avoid a constitution based decision when a statutory or regulatory one is available) state that the court review the case de novo, or anew, to determine the best understanding of the law. Though that is exactly what Chevron Deference by-passes.

The government defends this practice not as the best reading of the APA but by invoking stare decisis. That is doubly problematic. First, at issue here is only Chevron’s methodology, which is entitled to reduced stare decisis effect. We have no beef with Chevron’s Clean Air Act holding, and we could not take issue with its APA holding because it failed to mention that statute. But, second, all the traditional stare decisis factors point in favor of overruling Chevron’s methodology. The doctrine is unworkable as its critical threshold question of ambiguity is hopelessly ambiguous. It is also a — a reliance-destroying doctrine because it facilitates agency flip-flopping. So the reality here is the Chevron two-step has to go and should be replaced with only one question: What is the best reading of the statute?

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

The Defense

Representing the government is Solicitor General Elizabeth B. Prelogar. She opened her defense with.

Throughout this litigation and at times this morning, Petitioners have sought to characterize this case as presenting a fundamental question of the separation of powers and a test of Article III: Will courts continue to say what the law is?

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

While that belief is commonly held, the purpose of Article III courts is not to arbitrarily say what the law is, but to decide controversies based on those laws. Since the specifics of those laws need to be considered when applied to the specifics of any case, there is obviously some interpretation that goes along with the role of a judge. Gen. Prelogar then sets up a straw-man for the court.

Imagine, for example, if the statute said, in Chevron, “stationary source” as defined by the Administrator. I take both Petitioners to give that up and recognize that is a delegation and courts should respect that.

The role of the court in that circumstance is to make sure that the agency has followed the proper procedures and stayed what — within whatever outer bounds Congress itself has set. And all of that complies with the Constitution, of course, because Congress has Article I authority to delegate gap-filling authority to agencies, and the executive has core Article II authority to fill in those gaps.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

First Gen. Prelogar attempts to redirect the question at hand. Petitioners are questioning the deference to the agency when Congress is silent, not when they have explicitly delegated authority to an agency. This is based on two fundamental errors by Gen. Prelogar. First, nothing in the Constitution delegates to Congress the authority to delegate to another the power to “fill in the gaps” in their legislation. Second, neither does the Constitution delegate to the executive branch the authority to fill in those gaps.

Still, there is a more fundamental constitutional flaw in Gen. Prelogar’s argument.

If Congress can expressly vest an agency with authority to interpret the law through an express delegation, then it can do the same thing implicitly, especially in a world where Congress has to provide the agency with the express authority to carry the statute into operation with the force and effect of law.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

Gen. Prelogar’s straw-man doesn’t show Congress vesting authority to interpret the law, but to apply the law. In her argument, Congress gives the “Administrator” authority to define the term “stationary source”, not to interpret the law whichever way they want. To make matters worse, Gen. Prelogar claims that when Congress does not tell an agency they can do something, that means they have the power to do it. This not only violates the plain language of the Constitution, but places the executive agencies above the very Congress that created it. After all, if any agency can interpret for itself what the law means, their word becomes law. Only after those harmed by such totalitarian rule have spent years and untold dollars pursuing a court case, can they expect any sort of redress of grievance for those agencies’ actions, and then only if the court finds the agencies’ interpretation “unreasonable”. A very fickle standard indeed. Should Congress draft new legislation to restore its intent to the law, we once again would have a long and fraught process, one that does not guarantee that the original intent of the law is applied.

Questions From the Justices

After each attorney presented their case, the justices had a chance to ask them questions.

JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR: …

It seems like most people agree, if the court — if the statute uses “reasonable,” that Congress is delegating the definition of “reasonable” to the agency, and the agency is deciding what is reasonable within some outer limit either set within the statute or — or within the law.

But the point is that I don’t — it’s great rhetoric, Mr. Clement, but we do delegate, we have recognized delegations to agencies from the beginning of the founding of interpretation. And so I — I — I — I’m at a loss to understand where the argument comes from.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

Here we see Justice Sotomayor using the same sleight of hand that Gen. Prelogar did. Petitioners are not questioning the agencies definition of “reasonableness”, but their actions without ANY statutory language. Remember, the law did not give discretion to the Dept. of Commerce when it comes to who pays the salary for monitors, it was silent on the subject.

JUSTICE KAGAN: Well, because you have no other option. I mean, what — what Chevron is is it’s a recognition that in certain cases you apply all those tools and the conclusion you come up with is Congress hasn’t spoken to this issue. And if you had no other option, you’re a court, there’s a case before you, you try as hard as you can, even though you know you’re basically on your own.

But, with — when Chevron comes in, when there is an agency, what Chevron says is now there are two possible decision-makers, there’s the agency and there’s the court, and what we think is that Congress would have preferred the agency to resolve this question when congressional direction has — cannot be found because of the agency’s expertise, because of the agency’s experience, because the agency understands how this question fits within the statutory scheme. So it’s not a question of the court couldn’t do it. It’s a question of, once congressional direction can’t be found, who does Congress want to do it.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

It’s not the role of the agencies or the courts to speak for Congress. If Congress did not speak, it did not speak. It’s then up to Congress to decide if it wishes to speak on the matter. What Justice Kagan wants is to subvert the separation of powers and to assume the role of medium in order to divine what Congress wants. Even Congress doesn’t think that’s a good idea.

1. CLEMENT: So, Justice Kagan, if we’re going to talk about what Congress wants, we probably should at least avert to the fact that we do have an amicus brief in this case from the House in its institutional capacity, and it doesn’t want Chevron. It’s on our side of the case, …

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

When the actor you’re claiming to fill in the gaps for, or at least part of that actor, is telling you that you’re wrong, that should pretty much seal the deal. Not for Justice Kagan.

JUSTICE KAGAN: If it doesn’t want Chevron, it has total control over Chevron. It can reverse Chevron tomorrow with respect to any particular statute and with respect to statutes generally, and it hasn’t. For 40 years, it has acceded to Chevron. Except in super-rare cases, it has basically said this is the background rule, it gives us a stable default rule from which to write statutes, and we’ve accepted that.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

Oh contraire, Ms. Kagan. Chevron is not the creation of Congress, but of the very court you currently sit on. Yes, Congress could have passed a law that more tightly defines who decides ambiguities, and probably should have, but that would certainly take longer than tomorrow. And just what would keep the courts from simply reinterpreting Congress’ intent in the future?

1. CLEMENT:…

[F]undamentally even more problematic, is if you get back to that fundamental premise of Chevron that when there’s silence or ambiguity, we know the agency wanted to delegate to the agency.

That is just fictional, and it’s fictional in a particular way, which is it assumes that ambiguity is always a delegation. But ambiguity is not always a delegation. And more often, what ambiguity is, I don’t have enough votes in Congress to make it clear, so I’m going to leave it ambiguous, that’s how we’re going to get over the bicameralism and presentment hurdle, and then we’ll give it to my friends in the agency and they’ll take it from here.

And that ends up with a phenomenon where we have major problems in society that aren’t being solved because, instead of actually doing the hard work of legislation where you have to compromise with the other side at the risk of maybe drawing a primary challenger, you rely on an executive branch friend to do what you want. And it’s not hypothetical.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

Again, Mr. Clement brings us back to the point. Because of Congressional laziness, even dereliction of duty, they have given up the work of actually writing complete laws, leaving the executive agencies to “fill in the gaps” in their legislation. While that may be the fundamental intent in some cases, it is a violation of the Constitution of the United States. By deferring all decisions to the agencies, the courts too have violated their oaths to support the Constitution.

JUSTICE THOMAS: How do you — how do we discern statutory — delegation from statutory silence?

GENERAL PRELOGAR: So, Justice Thomas, I think that it would be wrong to suggest that you can neatly categorize cases as those involving silence and those involving ambiguity. And — and the reason for that — I recognize that — that Chevron itself used both of those terms, but I think that the Court was just trying to be comprehensive about those kinds of circumstance where Congress hasn’t itself directly resolved an issue.

Loper Bright Enterprises, v Gina Raimondo, Secretary Of Commerce – Oral Arguments

Did you catch that switch-a-roo? Justice Thomas ask Gen. Prelogar how to tell the difference between delegation and silence, and she switched it to silence and ambiguity.

Justice Thomas’ question has a very simple answer. Delegation is a positive statement “as defined by the Administrator”. Silence is the absence of a statement.

Conclusion

The entire issue of both this case and Chevron comes down to a single question: Is governmental power positively or negatively defined? Does a government actor have to have a positive statement that they can do something, or are they free to act unless there is a specific prohibition? When it comes to the federal government the answer should be clear:

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

U.S. Constitution, Amendment X

The United States only has the powers delegated to it by the Constitution. Since, as Article I, Section 1 of the Constitution states:

All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.

U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 1

All power for making law (legislative powers) is vested in Congress. They do not have the power to delegate lawmaking power to executive agencies. And since Article III only delegates to the courts judicial power and the power to decide controversies, they do not have the power to “fill gaps” as Gen. Prelogar claims.

Chevron appears to have been an attempt to “keep things going” when Congress was silent or ambiguous on a specific issue. If Congress leaves gaps in their legislation, it’s up to Congress, the representatives of the people and the states, to fill them in. It’s most certainly not within the powers delegated to the executive or judicial branches. We’ll have to wait and see if a majority of the justices on the court recognize the usurpation of powers Chevron Deference has become.

I happened to be reading an Amazon customer review of one of my Bell Mountain books. The reader gave it five stars, so I knew what came next was only an accident. To wit:

“This story is about the battle of Goof vs. Evil.”

“Goof”? But wait—was there wisdom hidden in this typo? What does the Bible say about it?

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God… For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe… Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men… But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things that are mighty” (I Corinthians 1:18-27).

When St. Paul wrote this, what could have seemed more foolish, more ridiculous, to the intellectuals of those days than a little fringe group of Jewish fools worshiping a crucified nobody whom they claimed to by the Son of God—and claiming that He had risen from the dead as the Savior of the entire human race? Where were their armed legions? Where was their war chest? These people were crazy!

Can “goof” defeat evil?

Are you kidding? Times without number, Goof has indeed defeated Evil. How many would-be rulers of the world were destroyed by their own foolishness—which at the time was hailed as wisdom? Surely the Third Reich was as rich and powerful, in our time, as the Roman Empire was in Paul’s. And what ever did Hitler more damage than his own folly in invading Russia?

The acclaimed wisdom of this world devours itself. Don’t tell me you expect anything good and lasting to come out of our 21^st Century bogus wisdom.

Really, now—where is transgender mania going to take us? Anywhere good? An even bigger howler, if such a thing were possible, is the pipe-dream of global government, administered by sinners, megalomaniacs, and fools. Yeah, sure—surgery that makes us sterile, the World Economic Forum calling the shots, erasing national borders, gain of function research to create new and deadlier diseases—what could go wrong? This is the wisdom of this fallen world.

“Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?” (v. 20)

Someday the whole Far Left globalist enterprise is going to come crashing down, after putting the whole world through the wringer.

Will we have learned our lesson then? Or will notions equally stupid arise to replace our current follies?

January 31, 2024

On October 6^th, 1973, as large numbers of American Jews attended temple services for Yom Kippur—the holiest day in the Jewish calendar—the shocking news broke that Israel had just been attacked by Arab forces from Egypt and Syria.

Amazingly, tiny Israel, even though blindsided by its hostile Arab neighbors, won this war in a mere three weeks. But this would not have happened without substantial aid from America, boldly authorized by President Nixon who refused to stand by and witness another Holocaust against the Jews.

This surprise attack, the Yom Kippur War, coming on a day when so many Israelis were in their synagogues fasting and praying, elicited world condemnation.

THE NARRATIVE CHANGES 180 DEGREES

Hamas invading Israel on October 7th, 2023

Now, almost 50 years later to the day, on the holy day of Simchat Torah, Hamas invaded the country and proceeded to perpetrate the most savage, horrific massacre of Israeli civilians imaginable.

However this time around, Israel was afforded only a few days of commiseration before much of world opinion shifted to castigating Israel for its vitally necessary retaliation, and sympathizing with…wait for it… the Palestinians, i.e. the perpetrators!

This is largely the result of the worldwide “Left Turn” in the ensuing decades, as major news agencies, universities, politicians, and others who quickly turned the reality upside down, are mostly Leftists. Let’s not forget that the Soviet Communists themselves created a false narrative of the so-called “oppressed Palestinians” who were actually mostly disgruntled Egyptians and Jordanians who’d been mislead by their own leaders, and blamed Israel instead, as I’ve written about here.

However, there is also the fear factor, as cowardly and hypocritical Progressives know it is dangerous to criticize Muslims who are fond of beheading infidels, while criticizing Jews is not only fair game, but one finds a lot of support from troves of anti-Semites who like nothing better than to find new excuses to “blame the Jews.”

And there’s the added advantage of virtue-signaling by mindlessly calling for the “liberation” of the Palestinians, “from the river to the sea”—meaning the complete annihilation of Israel—a notion we’ve recently learned is very popular at Harvard and MIT, among other overpriced Leftist indoctrination centers, aka universities.

WHAT ABOUT GENOCIDE?

Several popular alternative media sites along with the notorious Squad in Congress, students in colleges across the nation, protest rallies here at home as well as in Europe and the UK, claim Israel is committing “genocide” against the Palestinians.

And now South Africa—famous for decades of Apartheid, as well as one of the highest rates of gun violence in the world—took the infamously hypocritical step of hurling genocide charges against Israel at the World Court.

But to give them their due, the South Africans do know something about genocide—as their government has long turned a blind eye on the ongoing horrific genocide against white Afrikaner farmers committed by South African blacks.

Ilana Mercer, who wrote about this at length in her book Into the Cannibal’s Pot, had this to say in 2010:

Afrikaner farmers are being exterminated at the genocidal annual rate of 313 per 100,000 inhabitants. Or, in the estimation of Dr. Gregory H. Stanton who heads “Genocide Watch,” “four times as high as is for the rest of the population,” making farming in South Africa the most dangerous occupation in the world.

She goes on to describe the savage butchery of these murders, and to quote a blogger who called on: “fellow black people” to “take [their] land,” and “rape every trespasser, namely white whores … till the last breath is out. … White kids will be burned, especially those in Pretoria and Vrystaat.”

Sounds eerily familiar—all the more so when you hear their clarion call: “Kill the Boer.” Just substitute Jews for Afrikaners, and “Kill the Jews!” for “Kill the Boer!” and it’s déjà vu.

As South Africa points the finger at Israel, it is once again intentionally blind to the real genocide—whether that of Hamas, or that of its own people.

As described in a review of Into the Cannibal’s Pot, Mercer also documents the rise of antisemitism and Islamic radicalism in the New South Africa, which set the stage for what Bret Stephens rightly calls “the moral obscenity” of South Africa charging Israel with genocide, and what I call a satanic inversion of reality.

But this is nothing new for the Left, which has long since learned to accuse others of things it does itself with impunity.

WAR CRIMES

While the globalist Left and friends keep slandering Israel with “war crimes” charges, though we’ve never seen a nation at war take such precautions to spare civilian lives, there have indeed been obvious war crimes committed.

Funny thing though, the Leftist press hasn’t mentioned these crimes. Might that be because they were committed by one of the Left’s protected “oppressed” peoples? Or perhaps it was an oversight and the mainstream media will correct it shortly.

In the meantime, consider this list:

• Rape: It is considered a war crime to use rape as weapon, which Hamas used with great abandon on October 7^th, even filming their atrocities. Almost all the women and even children were raped before being murdered or kidnapped–many were gang-raped. And some men were sodomized.
• Chemical weapons: We now know Hamas used a toxic chemical gas to kill the IDF female observers and female IDF officers at the Nahal Oz outpost, where a “toxic flammable substance was hurled into the entrance of a building housing the surveillance commander center at the base.”
• Targeting of civilians: The purpose of the entire raid was the targeting of civilians! It was the butchery of innocent civilians at the hands of the terrorists, whether at the Nova festival, or in their homes, in their beds, or in their “safe rooms”. How do you explain their purposeful murder of babies? Hamas, along with many Palestinians who accompanied them to loot the homes of murdered Jews and cheer on the murderers, even targeted the homes of Jews they knew personally from having worked for them, since Israel allowed Gazans to be day-workers using a permit system.
• Torture: The October 7^th attack served no military purpose. It was a day of bloodletting and grisly butchering as Palestinians gave vent to the Jew hatred at the center of their lives. “During the October 7th attack on Israel, Hamas terrorists raped, gang-raped, beheaded, burned, mutilated, disfigured, and tortured men, women, children, the elderly and the disabled. Hamas terrorists chopped off fingers, arms and feet, gouged out eyes, obliterated faces and tied up dozens of people—including children—before burning them alive. They cut an unborn baby out of a pregnant woman, stabbed the baby with a knife and shot the mother in the head.” They also cut the breasts off of some of the women and played catch with them, while others did the raping.
• Taking of hostages: If we take the UN’s Article 8 on War Crimes as our guide, we also find that taking hostages is a war crime, along with “willfully causing great suffering, or serious injury to body or health”—which the Palestinians did to both the Israelis they murdered in Israel, and to the hostages they brought back to Gaza.
• Genocide: Why did the Gazan terrorists kill Israelis? Because they’re Jews. They knew their raid would not lead to a military victory over Israel. They also knew Israel would retaliate. So why do it? For the glory of killing Jews in the name of Allah—aka genocide. By the way, Hamas’ charter clearly advocates genocide of the Jews.

There is simply no comparison between the abject evil that those Gazans inflicted on 1,200 innocent Israeli civilians, and Israel’s clearly justified military retaliation. Any attempt to downplay the heinous, psychopathic rampage of the Hamas butchers is to support that evil.

One more thing: You’d think that Hamas, since they took hostages in part as bargaining chips to entice Israel to release scores of terrorists in exchange for them, would have treated them with kid gloves.

Well, you’d be wrong.

Hamas starved them, beat them, and sexually molested them. Perhaps they would have taken better care of them if they hadn’t been promised a $10,000 reward from Hamas leadership for taking those hostages. Perhaps that reward meant more to them than the planned hostage swap.

HISTORY RIGHT SIDE UP

One can scarcely imagine a more savage, grizzly and malevolent spree of gang-raping, dismembering and brutal murder than what Palestinian terrorists inflicted on Israeli civilians on October 7^th—not only not sparing women and children, but ostensibly seeking them out. And from eyewitness accounts, the barbarous Muslim assailants were laughing and jeering as they raped, slaughtered and immolated their Jewish neighbors.

That diabolical orgy of sex-and-bloodlust cannot be forgotten when one considers the current Israel-Hamas war. As the world now knows, Hamas poses an existential threat to Israel. Therefore those who support Hamas are supporting the eradication of Israel, i.e. genocide against the Jews. And in its genocidal resolve, Hamas is joined by likeminded Arab Islamists who continually plot, plan and attack Israel, directly or through proxies, e.g. Iran.

Ironically, both sides agree on one thing: this battle is ultimately that of good against evil.

They merely disagree on which side is which.

“Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of speech.” -Benjamin Franklin

In case you haven’t noticed, your federal government is on a course that is doing its very best, with the help of the state governments, to undo what it is that our Forefathers have painstakingly and sacrificially established (John 15:13).

If it is not life itself that they are criminally attacking (Proverbs 6:17)…

…Then it is the Second Amendment to the Bill of our God-given Rights to protect our lives they are attacking (1 Samuel 13:22).

To add to this, Americans should have taken heed to the warnings as to how the government would silence the voice of opposition, which President Harry Truman warned of over 70 years ago.  He stated:

“Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear.”

Is this happening, today?  You know that it is.

As a matter of fact, President George Washington warned, “If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.”

Recently, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey obtained a court order blocking the Biden administration from violating the First Amendment.

With that said, it is well worth your time to read through the egregious violations to understand the full extent of the crimes that have been committed against the American people by their own government (Psalm 94:20).

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced today that the United States District Court for the Western District of Louisiana granted his motion to block top officials in the federal government from continuing to violate the First Amendment rights of millions of Americans. The judge’s ruling is 155 pages long and includes 721 footnotes.

The judge had harsh words for the federal officials. He noted that this is “the most massive attack against free speech in United States’ history,” that the Biden administration has “blatantly ignored the First Amendment’s right to free speech,” and that the Biden administration “almost exclusively targeted conservative speech.”

Attorney General Bailey’s motion for preliminary injunction, which he filed with Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, highlighted over 1,400 facts from more than 20,000 pages of evidence exposing the vast censorship enterprise coordinated across multiples agencies within the federal government. The Court’s order comes a mere two weeks after Attorney General Bailey testified before Congress on the dangers this enterprise poses to Americans’ right to free speech.

“We filed this landmark lawsuit against dozens of officials in the federal government to stop the biggest violation of the First Amendment in our nation’s history, and today’s court order is a huge win for the right to freely speak without government censorship,” said Attorney General Bailey. “We must build a wall of separation between tech and state to preserve our First Amendment right to free, fair, and open debate. Missouri will continue to lead the way in the fight to defend our most fundamental freedoms.”

In the order, the Court recognized the States’ evidence of unconscionable federal censorship activities. The judge specifically found:

• “[V]irtually all of the free speech suppressed was conservative free speech.”
• At least 22 times, the White House engaged in “unrelenting pressure” against tech companies. “White House Defendants engaged in coercion to induce social-media companies to suppress free speech.” “The White House Defendants made it very clear to social-media companies what they wanted suppressed and what they wanted amplified. Faced with unrelenting pressure from the most powerful office in the world, the social-media companies apparently complied.”
• “[T]he Hunter Biden laptop story was real, and not mere Russian disinformation,” and the “FBI’s failure to alert social-media companies” to this fact “is particularly troubling” after the FBI had falsely suggested to social-media companies that the Hunter Biden laptop story was fake. “After the Hunter Biden laptop story broke on October 14, 2020, [FBI agent Laura] Dehmlow refused to comment on the status of the Hunter Biden laptop in response to a direct inquiry from Facebook, although the FBI had the laptop in its possession since December 2019.”
• Facebook suppressed information at the demand of the White House, the FBI, and other federal agents even though the information “did not violate Facebook’s policies” and thus ordinarily would not have been suppressed. “Facebook noted that in response to White House demands, it was censoring, removing, and reducing the virality of content discouraging vaccines ‘that does not contain actionable misinformation.’”
• Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki issued a “threat of ‘legal consequences’” to social media companies “if they do not censor misinformation more aggressively.”
• After President Biden accused social media companies of “killing people,” Facebook emailed the Surgeon General to say “it’s not great to be accused of killing people” and to say Facebook was “keen to find a way to deescalate.” Social media platforms then met with the Surgeon General. “After the meetings with social-media platforms, the platforms seemingly fell in line with the Office of Surgeon General’s and White House’s requests.”
• The “motivation” of Dr. Anthony Fauci and other defendants was specifically “a ‘take down’ of protected free speech.”
• The Department of Homeland Security “met with social-media companies to both inform and pressure them to censor content protected by the First Amendment.” It then “expanded the word ‘infrastructure’ in its terminology to include ‘cognitive’ infrastructure, so as to create authority to monitor and suppress protected free speech posted on social media.”
• DHS “Defendants believe they had a mandate to control the process of acquiring knowledge.”
• DHS helped create a pseudo-private organization “to get around unclear legal authorities, including very real First Amendment questions.”
• Federal defendants did not just censor speech directly; they also caused social media companies to change their policies. They “used meetings, emails, phone calls, follow-up meetings, and the power of the government to pressure social-media platforms to change their policies and to suppress free speech.”
• Although much of the past suppression involved COVID and elections, federal officials “have also shown a willingness to do it with regard to other issues, such as gas prices, parody speech, calling the President a liar, climate change, gender, and abortion” as well as political criticism about “the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, and the return of U.S. Support of Ukraine.”

The judge ordered the Biden administration to stop this “almost dystopian scenario” of “us[ing] its power to silence the opposition.”

Missouri v. Biden was filed by the attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana on May 5, 2022. The Court granted their motion for discovery on July 12, 2022, clearing the way for Missouri and Louisiana to gather documents and depose witnesses from the Biden Administration.

Missouri and Louisiana deposed top-ranking officials in the federal government under oath, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, FBI Special Agent Elvis Chan, Eric Waldo of the Surgeon General’s Office, Carol Crawford of the CDC, Brian Scully of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and Daniel Kimmage of the State Department.

General Bailey and General Landry filed their motion for preliminary injunction on March 6, 2023, citing more than 1,400 facts showing that top officials in the federal government coerced and colluded with big tech social media companies to violate Americans’ right to free speech.

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.  —Isaiah 41:10

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. —Deuteronomy 31:6

Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you. —Isaiah 35:4

And the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods. But you shall fear the Lord your God, and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies. —II Kings 17:38-39

Anti-Semitism in 1930s Europe propelled us into a world war.  Hatred of the Jewish people means death for the entire world.  For Hamas, and the rest of their terrorist cabal, the destruction of the Jewish people and Israel is just the beginning.

“First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people.”

Their goal is genocide.

The Hamas liars and prevaricators and their followers are gaslighting the Jews and have been from the beginning of time.  Overwhelming lies and propaganda regarding Israel’s war against Hamas poisons the wellsprings of truth.

Yarden Mariuma, sociologist at Columbia University, writes, “Taqiyya is an Islamic juridical term whose shifting meaning relates to when a Muslim is not only allowed, but commanded under Sharia law, to lie.”

Hamas even films their lies. It’s called Pallywood.  The dead get up and walk once the cameras are turned off.  They release the videos to worldwide media claiming they’ve lost so many thousands of innocent civilian lives at the hands of Israel’s IDF.

The reality is, Israel’s IDF is the most moral army in the world.  How do I know?  Because the Lord told them “Choose Life!”  They have.  Chai stands as one of the most widely recognized symbols of Judaism. It is Hebrew for “life.” The term “chai,” emphasizes the significance of life in Judaism.  Israel’s medical teams have saved many Palestinians, including youngsters, but the world fails to see the truth.

Here is just one example.

Meet Mazen, an 11-year-old Palestinian boy from Gaza who underwent life-saving heart surgery in Israel by Israeli doctors. He is the 6,000th child to have been saved by Israeli NGO Save a Child’s Heart.

Mazen is just one of the thousands of Palestinians who have received life-saving medical treatment in Israeli hospitals.

Eileen Toplansky’s article, Enabling Hatred for the Jewish People, speaks truth to the lies, when she writes, “Jewish people believed that they owed G-d a debt for the miracles He had performed for the early Israelites. Consequently, they became a people devoted to morality and justice as taught by the Torah.  In essence, Torah-loving people seek to do tzedakah u-mishpat -– righteousness and justice.”

In Gil Troy’s fabulous must-read expose, The nine Big Lies against Israel and what they really mean, he writes, Palestinian terrorists and their enablers have taken lying to a whole other level. Yet, despite building so much of their case on a foundation of falsehoods, they keep conning the world. Everyone “knows” that Israel occupies Gaza—despite Israel disengaging from it in 2005; that “From the River to the Sea” envisions a democratic Palestine—when it envisions an exterminated Israel; and, most outrageously, that hundreds of innocent Israelis, young and old alike, deserved to be massacred, maimed, raped and terrorized—while others deny all the evidence that the atrocities happened.

Over 80% of the Gazan population agree with Hamas.

Since 2001, Hamas has sent rockets into Israel.  The following timeline shows the number of rocket and mortar attacks against Israel by year.

See also: Hamas Rocket Range from Gaza

2001–2002–2003–2004–2005–2006–2007–2008–2009–2010
2011–2012–2013–2014–2015–2016–2018–2019–2020–2021–2022 –2023 –2024

The world’s media sides with terrorists rather than those who were the victims of genocide; a savage and barbaric attack so evil and horrific that it is reminiscent of the Auschwitz horrors.

Hamas Protestors

Do these brainwashed protestors even have a clue of what they’re screaming when they repeat the mantra, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free?”

It is genocide against the Jewish people!

It is calling for the establishment of a state of Palestine from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, erasing the State of Israel and her people.

It is a rallying cry for terrorist groups and their sympathizers, from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) to Hamas.

The PFLP called for Israel’s destruction in its original governing charter in 1988 and was responsible for the October 7, 2023 terror attack on innocent Israeli civilians, murdering over 1200 people in the single deadliest day against Jews since the Holocaust. It is also a common call-to-arms for pro-Palestinian activists, especially student activists on college campuses worldwide.

These fools don’t even know what they’re protesting!  They can’t even name the river or the sea they’re screaming about.  They haven’t a clue about the murders, rapes, beheadings, and burned babies.  They don’t even know how many hostages were taken.

Don’t believe me?  Here is Noa Tishby’s two-minute interview with several protestors.

She was also interviewed on Fox.

The Palestinian Authority, Fatah, celebrated the 7^th of October massacres.  If there was an election tomorrow in Samaria Judea, Hamas would win.  But there will be no election.

There is NO two-state solution because there is NOT a viable negotiating partner.

Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, the first Palestinian in America’s House of Representatives, asks why people believe the cries of Palestinians sound different to the rest of us.  Take a look at the “cries” of Palestinian youngsters and their loathing of Israel and her people. They are taught from the minute they suckle at their mother’s breasts to detest, defy and destroy the Jewish people.

In Shoshana Bryen’s article, The Real Genocides the World Ignores, she speaks to the baseless accusations against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ). Instead of standing up to genuine crimes against humanity, the international community hurls blood libels at Israel.

Ms. Bryen writes, “Nonetheless, the ICJ blood libel is an object lesson in how the international anti-Israel mob works. Slandering Israel and Jews is a time-honored method of diverting attention from the depredations of others. It also erases the victims of these crimes without so much as a crocodile tear.”

She then lists numerous perfect examples.

UNRWA’S TERRORISTS

On Oct. 7, 3,000 highly trained and well-disciplined Palestinian Arab “United Nations” UNRWA terrorists traversed the porous Gaza fence and went on a killing spree, attacking anyone in their path—men, women, children and babies. Many of the UNRWA terrorists knew their victims by name.

UNRWA’s textbooks glorify the murder of Jews.  Every UNRWA school in Gaza had Hamas weapons in it or under it.

The Rotten Edifice of ‘Humanitarianism’ by Melanie Phillips is not to be missed.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) was established as a subsidiary organ of the United Nations General Assembly on 8 December 1949 and became operational on 1 May 1950. It is one of the largest United Nations programs.

The U.S. Department of State is now “troubled” by allegations that 12 UNRWA employees may have been involved in the October 7^th Hamas attack on Israel.  The Department of State has temporarily paused additional funding for UNRWA while they review these allegations and the steps the United Nations is taking to address them.

All funding of this United Nation’s group should have been permanently eliminated long ago.  It was, under the Trump administration.  When Biden took office, he immediately funneled more than $730 million to the organization for refugee assistance in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

US tax dollars are aiding in the Hamas genocidal attacks against our only ally in the region, Israel.  Time to End UNRWA’s Jihad Against Israel.

INTERNATIONAL COURT OF INJUSTICE

The Biden administration criticized South Africa for filing a genocide case against Israel at the ICJ.  U.S. National Security Council Spokesperson John Kirby said, “We find this submission meritless, counterproductive, completely without any basis in fact whatsoever.”  For once, this administration has spoken the truth.

South Africa’s violent crime and murder of white farmers and foreigners has soared to a 20 year high, but they are not charged at the ICJ.

All charges against Israel are fraudulent.  They should have been brought against Hamas, whose genocidal slaughter included rape, dismemberment, beheadings, burning families and babies alive and violent torture and rape of hostages.

At the Hague, a tape recording of a phone call was played.  A young Palestinian man was rejoicing in telling his mother he killed 10 Jews with his own hands.  The phone he used was taken from one of the Jewish people he slaughtered.

Yet, they found Israel guilty of false charges, and told them they must prevent genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.  That is exactly what they have been doing and it has cost the lives of many IDF soldiers.

“The State of Israel does not need to be lectured on morality in order to distinguish between terrorists and the civilian population in Gaza,” Israeli Defense Minister, Yoav Gallant said. “Those who seek justice, will not find it on the leather chairs of the court chambers in The Hague. They will find it in the Hamas tunnels in Gaza, where 136 hostages are held, and where those who murdered our children are hiding.”

“That the wide majority of justices on the court would sit calmly at the reading of its rulings on the eve of Jan. 27, set aside by the international community as International Holocaust Remembrance Day, only deepens our disappointment at the world’s betrayal of the Jewish state and people,” the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem stated. “This decision inverts justice and is built on decades of the United Nations and all its forums becoming the world’s most cunning purveyors of antisemitism.”

The Court stopped short of a ceasefire order.  The ICJ, the main judicial arm of the United Nations, rejected a request on Friday from South Africa to order a halt to Israel’s defensive war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

Israel’s defense against the bloodbath butchery of October 7^th is righteous.

Howard Rotberg puts it perfectly in his article, Shylock at the Hague, “Anti-Israelism has passed into the realm of anti-Semitism through its holding of Israel to different standards than any other country, and its focus on the retributive aspects of Israeli reactions, rather than the actions of murderers attacking Israel.”

America’s Betrayal

“No one with two functioning brain cells looks at Hamas’ massacre and rape and kidnapping and says, ‘Let’s give these people a state.’”  Erielle Davidson, author at the Federalist and Senior Policy Analyst at the Jewish Institute for National Security of America.

The US aims to reward terrorism with a two-state solution.

The top EU diplomate, Josep Borrell, says the international community will have to “impose” it.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israel cannot defeat Hamas — that there is no “military solution,” and that Israel will have to accept a Palestinian Two State Solution. Netanyahu emphatically rejected the idea in order to ensure Israel’s survival.

Joe Biden and Antony Blinken believe there should be de-escalation of the war effort by Israel, despite the savage slaughter of over 1200 Jewish innocents.  The US is still promoting a two-state solution.  Let me be plain.  What the hell did this administration think existed for the last 18-plus years?

Living with people who want you dead will never work.

Blinken is demanding aid for Palestinians, saying their babies are dying too.  Sorry Blinken, but any aid to Gazans goes directly into the pockets of Hamas for their ongoing war against Israel.  The Secretary of State also told Netanyahu to use smaller bombs so as not to kill innocent Palestinian civilians.  Israel has told Palestinian civilians where to move to be safe, but Hamas threatens their lives if they leave.  Yet Israel is expected to protect Palestinians when we know those citizens, including youngsters, were gleefully dismembering, spitting on and dragging the bodies of murdered Israelis through the streets of Gaza.

The Biden administration is loaded with Islamists and Hamas supporters.  Adeel Mangi is the latest nominee to the Third Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals, a lifetime appointment to a court only one rung below the Supreme Court.

Mangi was a former member of the advisory board of Rutgers University’s Center for Race, Security and Rights.  Jonathan Tobin’s article, “What they really mean when they cry ‘Islamophobia’,” states,  “The center is a cesspool of anti-Israel propaganda helmed by a radical Rutgers Law School professor Sahar Aziz, an avowed opponent of Israel’s existence. It has a record of programs aimed at delegitimizing the Jewish state and the rights of the Jewish people, as well as promoting Islamist radicals.”

Worldwide funding endeavors to encourage prosperity for Gazan citizens were spent by Hamas on war efforts to destroy Israel.  Israelis left a flourishing Jewish community when they were forced out in September of 2005.

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon authorized the disengagement from the Gaza strip and North Samaria in believing the plan would improve Israel’s security and international status in the absence of peace negotiations with the Palestinians.

Israel cannot survive living with barbaric savages who want them dead.

Speaking Truth

Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom.  Thomas Jefferson

Douglas Murray speaks truth to the British people.

“I came back to London and I hear the residue of the people outside the Israeli embassy.  These people were not protesting against Israeli countermeasures.  They hadn’t even had any countermeasures.  They were protesting because Jews by the hundreds had been slaughtered in Israel and they wanted to wound us more.  I’ve written in The Spectator tomorrow, “Demand of the Prime Minister and Home Secretary that supporters of Hamas in the UK must be treated exactly the same way as supporters of Isis were.  If you stand in Britain with a Hamas flag, you should not be allowed to be free in Britain.  You should be arrested, have your citizenship withdrawn, your passport withdrawn.  You should be deported.  You should be sent to Gaza and try your luck there.  But you should not be given the right to insult and to taunt Jews after the death of Jews.’”

Caroline Glick Speaks Truth to the EU

Journalist and author, Caroline Glick was also a JAG officer in the IDF and an advisor to Benjamin Netanyahu. In this Jerusalem Post Diplomatic conference, sparks begin to fly in the three-minute video when the Danish Ambassador makes statements that are an affront to Israel.

Conclusion

There is so much more to be written, but what the Lord has to say is the final truth.

Deuteronomy 7:7-9

⁷ The Lord did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people:

⁸ But because the Lord loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

⁹ Know therefore that the Lord thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations.

House Republicans released their articles of impeachment against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Sunday, the same day Biden’s war with Iran escalated.

It appears the Republicans should be targeting the “Commander-in-Chief” in name only for the immediate impeachment. Tell Mayorkas to wait his turn.

My updated column, Another Impeachable Offense from Biden, looks at his war with Iran, already resulting in hundreds of casualties and the deaths of two Navy SEALs, before the latest attack from Iran.

“Have no doubt — we will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing,” the bumbling fool of a President named Biden said Sunday. He doesn’t inspire confidence.

The American people are waiting for the time when they choose, assuming the November presidential election is not rigged this time around.

Biden’s sickly Defense Secretary issued a statement, saying, “The President and I will not tolerate attacks on American forces, and we will take all necessary actions to defend the United States, our troops, and our interests.”

Politically, Biden is trying to look presidential, a “War President,” as Americans naturally rally behind their nation and its soldiers.

Biden is not a coward. He will use military force in a reckless manner. Republicans are cowards for encouraging the fool Biden to get the United States into another war.

Senator Lindsey Graham says, “I am calling on the Biden Administration to strike targets of significance inside Iran, not only as reprisal for the killing of our forces, but as deterrence against future aggression.” But his statement fails to demand a congressional Declaration of War before this occurs.

If they want a war with Iran, let the Congress declare it. We all know that Biden appeased Iran before and that, suddenly, he has decided to retaliate for its aggression. No wonder he doesn’t inspire confidence and soldiers are dying.

We are waiting for another generation of wounded warriors.

“This brazen attack on the United States is yet another horrific and tragic consequence of Joe Biden’s weakness and surrender,” Trump said about the attack that killed 3 soldiers and wounded dozens more. “This terrible day is yet more proof that we need an immediate return to PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH, so that there will be no more chaos, no more destruction, and no more loss of precious American lives. Our Country cannot survive with Joe Biden as Commander in Chief.”

He’s right. So why are some Republicans calling on Biden to wage war on Iran without a congressional declaration of war?

Remember this is the same Joe Biden who is constitutionally mandated to execute faithfully the laws and yet has ignored the law and allowed an invasion of the border over the last three years.

The facts are clear. Iran is waging war on the United States, just as it is doing so with Israel. But war with Iran doesn’t solve the problem.

The invasion of Ukraine was made in Moscow, and the invasion of Israel was also planned there. Anybody who disputes this fact doesn’t understand the reality of Soviet/Russian communism and the work of the KGB.

And the war with Iran was made in Moscow, too.

To understand what has been planned, I suggest the report, Communists and Muslims: The Hidden Hand of the KGB, by Konstantin Preobrazhensky, a former KGB officer.

The next ominous steps in the Middle East were outlined in our book Red Jihad, as Russia and its client state Iran work to force the Jewish state to abandon its last line of defense, its own nuclear arsenal, in return for “peace” in the Middle East.

But as we warned in our book, if pushed to disarm or turn over its nuclear arsenal to the United Nations, or an international body or coalition, the ultimate “Final Solution” may come to Israel.

In the immediate term, Biden wants Israel to accept another Muslim state on its borders, able to import weapons from Iran and Russia and China.

Now, if Biden strikes Iran directly without Congressional approval, dragging the United States further into a war, he should be impeached. The Mayorkas impeachment should be put on the back burner for now.

“The real rulers in Washington are invisible and exercise power from behind the scenes.”  —Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, 1952

Like tens of millions of Americans, watching the 2020 presidential race stolen from Donald Trump, I was sickened.  As someone whose been writing about election fraud since 1993, I knew the lying, cheating Democrat/Communist Party USA would use every dirty trick in the book.  Only this time around, the Big Steal was made possible not just by rigged machines and cheating human vote counters but by ignorant or partisan judges.

The circus that followed never had to happen.  Certainly, it was profitable for all of Trump’s attorneys but they should have known about the Foster v Love case.  I didn’t but I’m also not a lawyer or paralegal who does research for cases being put together.

In all the decades since I began voting at age 18, never have I seen such open, blatant cheating and it didn’t just cheat We the People and President-Elect Donald Trump (Trump did win despite all the conspiracy theories by CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, the DNC, MSNBC, NY Times and other rags Trump lost), but also federal offices – U.S. House and Senate races.

While all the unnecessary lawsuits were being filed in those key ‘swing’ states like GA, AZ, PA, MI, MN, NV, I read a legal analysis that was the game changer and for those who missed this in one of my columns:

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

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

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

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

“It’s rare SCOTUS has a 9-0 decision and this one surprised me considering the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg was on the bench back then (as well as Antonin Scalia).  You can read the transcript of the oral arguments in Foster v Love here.  Facts of the Case here.   A couple of quotes:

Richard I. Ieyoub

“That is the election primary date, Your Honor, and if a person receives a majority of the vote, and only in that instance, they are declared elected, and there would be no determinative election on Federal Election Day.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

“Yes, but my question to you is, why don’t we just call it what it is, that is, an election, since everybody votes, and everybody who wants to be in the running is there?

“Why isn’t… why is it labeled primary?

“It is an election, and it seems to me, being an election it conflicts with the Federal single Election Day.” It’s tragic this was not the key argument in Trump’s lawsuits.  I think really only one lawsuit would have been needed, not state by state.

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

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

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

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

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

I sent that column and the links to the Supreme Court’s oral arguments and decision to Trump overnight mail twice right after I cross checked every statute and statement in Jander’s legal analysis.  Since I’m a nobody, I doubt he ever received it.  I also sent a copy to his then head Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller, no response.  A copy to one of his attorneys, Jesse Binnall, who skillfully argued the NV steal.  No response.

Well, imagine my surprise two days ago when I read this on foxnews.com that magically disappeared from their front page an hour later:  RNC files an election integrity lawsuit in Mississippi challenging ballot counting deadlines, Jan. 6, 2024.  “The Republican National Committee filed a lawsuit Friday to stop Mississippi ballots received days after Election Day from being counted, arguing a current statute violates federal law. The state’s current deadline allows ballots postmarked on or before Election Day to be counted if received within five business days of the election.

“The RNC, along with the Mississippi Republican Party and the Hinds County Republican Party, are claiming the practice violates the federal Election Day statute, which states that “the Tuesday next after the 1st Monday in November, in every even numbered year, is established as the day for the election.”

FINALLY, a lawsuit backed up by a U.S. Supreme Court ruling.  The U.S. Supreme Court rarely overturns a previous SCOTUS decision.  Roe v Wade:  49 years and after murdering 62+ MILLION unborn babies with a beating heart, that horrible, immoral decision was correctly overturned.

Where have you been all these years Ronna McDaniel?  The 2022 federal elections selections.  The ‘big red wave” that supposedly died.  She is the RNC Chair and miscreant RINO, Mitt Romney’s niece.  North Carolina GOP District Calls for Vote of No Confidence for Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel ahead of RNC Winter Meeting, Jan. 28, 2024 //  Ronna McDaniel’s Cash-Strapped RNC May Open a Line of Credit to Help Pay Bills This Election Year, Jan. 27, 2024

It took some combing through the RNC’s web site, but I found the lawsuit, see here.  Going through it, page by page and referencing Jander’s column above on Foster v Love, the same statutes are being used in the RNC’s lawsuit.  Blimey!  The Foster v Love lawsuit grew from litigation in Louisiana, the RNC’s is Mississippi.

In their filing, page 3, number 13: “The RNC also has an interest in preventing Mississippi’s constitutionally problematic mail-in ballot deadlines.”  The same monstrous problem that happened in PA, GA, MI, AZ and MN.  (And likely most of the states in the Union who either stopped counting votes, went home and came back the next day to continue counting or ignorant or partisan judges who simply ignored Foster v Love and allowed the fraud to stand.  Likely some ignored that case because Trump’s attorneys never used it as the sledgehammer in their filings to stop the madness.

Now from page 5:

ALLEGATIONS

1. There is only one federal Election Day.
2. The U.S. Constitution’s Elections Clause vests state legislatures with power to set the time, place, and manner of congressional elections. U.S. Const., art. I, §4, cl. 1.
3. But the Elections Clause also reserves to “Congress” the power to “at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.” Id.
4. A law governs “‘the election’ of a Senator or Representative” when it “plainly refer[s] to the combined actions of voters and officials meant to make a final selection of an officeholder.” Foster v. Love, 522 U.S. 67, 71 (1997).”

The filing is only 14 pages so I do encourage you to not only read it, but make sure you (or your group or organization gets this to your Secretary of State, county clerk and county commissioners.  BTW, constitutionally ineligible Nikki Haley flub:  Why Nikki Haley won’t be on the ballot in the GOP’s upcoming caucus in Nevada, Jan. 24, 2024: “For somewhat unclear reasons, Haley signed up to be included on the state ballot in October, despite there being no way for her to amass any delegates. Trump will be the sole name on the caucus ballot on February 8, which means his campaign will win all of the state’s 26 delegates.”  I wonder if Nikki let her big moola donors know?  If not, they will soon find out.  And she wants to run this country?

This case filed by the RNC is in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Mississippi, Southern District Gulfport.

Judges for the Southern District, Gulfport.  Ug.  I had to look up each one.  Chief District Judge Daniel P. Jordan III, nominated by George W. Bush.  District Judge Carlton W. Reeves, nominated by impostor president, Hussein Obama.  District Judge Kristi H. Johnson, nominated by Trump.  District Judge Taylor B. McNeel, nominated by Trump.

Louis Guirola Jr., nominated by George W. Bush, advanced to Senior Judge.  Senior Judge Keith Starrett nominated by George W. Bush.  Senior Judge David Bramlette III nominated by George H.W. Bush.  Senior Judge Tom S. Lee nominated by Ronald Reagan.

As I penned this column on Jan. 28^th, the lawsuit was filed on the previous Friday (always the trick so the prostitute media give little or no coverage) so I’m not sure who is the judge.  But, one of my dearest friends whose been a lawyer for more than three decades, instructed me to look at the case number:  1:24cv25 LG-RPM.  LG, Louis Guirola, could be the judge.

There are several Magistrates but only one with RPM:  Robert P. Meyers.  According to Ballotpedia, “The chief judge of each district appoints one or more magistrate judges, who discharge many of the ancillary duties of district judges so judges can handle more trials.”

This case deals with mail-in ballots.  All registered voters in the commie state of Oregon are automatically mailed a ballot.  We KNOW illegal aliens who have NO right to be on U.S. soil much less vote in our elections at ANY level are getting registered and voting.  One of the biggest reasons we fought so hard back in 1993 to defeat the Motor Voter Law.  Illegals are getting driver’s licenses and at the same time register to vote.  Guess which party?

The Motor Voter Law was a blatant invitation by the Democrat/Communist Party USA to open the flood gates for election fraud.  Back in Dec. 2020, a group of Republicans tried to get that law abolished.  One of the great good guys, Rep. Andy Biggs [R-AZ] pointed out the big problem in his state where AZ law does require a person to provide proof of citizenship.  That federal law says, who cares.  Biggs laid out his case: “This lax procedure, to register individuals to vote in states that have strict citizenship requirements for voter registration, is a threat to the integrity of our elections.

“Americans of all political leanings deserve to know that our elections were carried out with the utmost integrity. “That’s why I hope my colleagues will join me in support of this legislation to ensure that states, and not the D.C. swamp, uphold election integrity and restore trust at the ballot box for each of its residents.”

This is Biggs’ press release in Dec. 2020 after the Big Steal.  Congressman Biggs Introduces Legislation to Repeal the Outdated National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (“Motor Voter”)  Too bad it wasn’t introduced after Trump was elected in 2016 because Republicans held the majority in both chambers of Congress for 18 months.  Here’s the simple bill filed which died with only 10 cosponsors.  Thank you, Republican incumbents for allowing the fraud to continue – besides the machines and scanners. (As usual, my U.S. Rep. Jodie Arrington did not support the bill.)

Mail in ballots have been a magnet for vote fraud for decades and how convenient Democrats screamed we all must have mail in ballots because of COVID.  Timing is everything.

If you haven’t read Ren Jander’s November 18, 2020, piece Elections Undecided by Midnight are Void & Preempted by Federal Law – Foster v Love (1997; 9-0 Decision) I cited above, please do.  Oral arguments (including lefty icon, Ruther Bader Ginsberg here as well as the case.

This is a VERY important case just filed.  I’ve brought this up in so many columns since Dec. 2020 and implored readers:  You must bring this to the attention of your county clerk (I did last year) and county commissioners who oversee elections in the 3,142 counties in the U.S.  No ballots counted after midnight and I (or your group, GOP county club) will be there on election night to make sure voting for federal offices stops at midnight.  It’s up to us.

THE COVERUP, GA Secretary of State Rat Raffensperger KNEW there were 67,000 illegal votes cast in the 2020 election before Trump’s phone call, Jan. 26, 2024, Video  (The big lie barfed up by the prostitute media:  Biden beat Trump by 11,779 votes in GA.)

November 6, 2020 – 3 days after the end of Election Day:  “There are still about 40,000 ballots that need to be counted in Philadelphia County, a heavily Democratic area that helped power Biden into a lead over Trump. But Philadelphia City Commissioner Lisa Deeley told CNN it “could take several days to complete the reporting” of those votes.”

I’ve provided probably a hundred examples of the fraud that went on during that election.  Here’s just one more:

New Evidence Reveals GA Audit Fraud and Massive Errors, July 13, 2021, “But it is not simply a case of errors. The VoterGA team found 7 falsified audit tally sheets containing fabricated vote totals for their respective batches. For example, a batch containing 59 actual ballot images for Joe Biden, 42 for Donald Trump and 0 for Jo Jorgenson was reported as 100 for Biden and 0 for Trump.

“The seven batches of ballot images with 554 votes for Joe Biden, 140 votes for Donald Trump and 11 votes for Jo Jorgenson had tally sheets in the audit falsified to show 850 votes for Biden, 0 votes for Trump and 0 votes for Jorgenson.

“Fulton Co. failed to include over 100,000 tally sheets, including more than 50,000 from mail-in ballots, when the results were originally published for the full hand count audit conducted by the office of the Secretary of State for the November 3rd 2020 election. Those tally sheets remained missing until late February when the county supplemented their original audit results.”

Look at that link ‘falsified audit tally’ sheets.  The BRAIN DEAD hens on The View, a diarrhea filled TV show and all the other conspiracy theorists out there can continue to say Biden won in 2020 but it’s the biggest steal in the history of voting in America.  Ohio comes in second,  back in 2004 as their final election results were fraud.

A Citizens’ Audit of an American Election, July 10, 2008 (Mine): “Richard Hayes Phillips, a former college professor, has written a new book titled, Witness to a Crime: A Citizens’ Audit of an American Election. This monstrous undertaking covers the 2004 election results in the State of Ohio. Remember, the chief executive for the biggest vote fraud machine operation in this country said he would deliver Ohio to Bush.

“What makes Phillips investigation so compelling is the book is filled with concrete proof that the voters of Ohio were robbed of their right to fair and impartial elections. The amount of work that went into this investigation is staggering: 300,000 images of forensic evidence, then personally examining 126,000 ballots, 127 poll books and 141 voter signature books from 18 counties in Ohio. This is the definitive and documented evidence of crimes that cannot, must not be ignored.”

Because of the cheating, Bush got the Electoral College votes that should have gone to Kerry who would have fairly won that election which would have been a DISASTER for this country.  But, either we believe in fair and impartial elections or we believe cheating is necessary to keep one or the other of the two political parties, R or D from winning a fair race.

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES

No. 19A1016

REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE, ET AL . v. DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE, ET AL .  ON APPLICATION FOR STAY [April 6, 20200]

By Lex Greene

January 29, 2024

From day one, July 4, 1776, when a handful of real American patriots declared our independence from England and British rule, they also established our independence from any form of government tyranny, foreign or domestic.

The basis of the American Dream is self-determination and self-governance. The ability to dream your own dream, set your own course, establish your own goals, and strive to accomplish your own destiny, as only you can do. These ideas culminate in the term “freedom.”

Among many other freedoms too numerous to list, the American Dream includes…

• The Right to choose your own Faith, or none at all.
• The Right to choose your own profession.
• The Right to choose your own financial condition.
• The Right to choose your own friends.
• The Right to raise your own family, or not have one.
• The Right to own private property.
• The Right to privacy, and not to be spied on by anyone.
• The Right to be secure in your belongings.
• The Right to enjoy the fruits of your own labor.
• The Right to vote for the public servants of your choice.
• The Right to make your own health choices.
• A Right to Life, Liberty, and your Pursuit of Happiness.
• A Right to equal justice under the Law, not Marxist “equity.”
• A Right to Free Speech, redress of grievances, and to keep and bear arms.

In a free nation, your Natural Rights are far too numerous to number. For most of our 247-year history, Americans were born into these basic concepts, and millions came from around the world, leaving behind the destruction of tyrannical socialist and communist governments, in pursuit of the same freedoms every American was once born into.

To love and support, protect, and preserve these ideas for all American citizens and all posterity, is to be a true patriot of the United States created of, by and for the People of these United States. To do any less, is to be a traitor to these ideas, and an open threat to all Americans who still believe in and revere these foundations for Freedom.

It’s not “In Government We Trust,” but rather “IN GOD WE TRUST,” the creator of all things, from whom our freedom is “endowed.”

Our freedom does not come from any man… and it is “inalienable” by any form of government. ALL government power is derived from the consent of the governed, We the People. That makes We the People the final arbiters of truth and justice.

Today, 80% of what the Federal Government does, or does not do, is in direct violation of the compact by the people, and between the States, that created the Federal Government. Under US Law, when a member of the contract stands in breech of that contract, the contract is null and void. No party to the contract is obligated to the terms and conditions of that contract once the agreement has been broken. Either the Constitution stands as the Supreme Law of this Land, or the government it creates and authorizes, has no Right to exist at all. Taxation without representation is unlawful and unconstitutional.

Our Founders spoke of this in the Declaration of Independence, the original Founding document upon which all else is built.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their Safety and Happiness.”

Unfortunately, our Constitution and Republican form of self-government has been undermined since the early 1800s, starting with the judicial branch seizing powers granted only to Congress alone, the unconstitutional power to make laws via court opinions.

“You seem . . . to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. Our judges are as honest as other men, and not more so . . . and their power [is] the more dangerous, as they are in office for life and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots.”  —(Jefferson letter to William Jarvis, Sept. 28, 1820)

In 1913 with the adoption of the 16^th Amendment allowing government to tax “wages” (not income) creating a modern slave state of sorts, and the 17^th Amendment eliminating State’s Representation in Washington DC via the US Senate, our Republic is a mere skeleton of its former glory.

Today, we have whole generations, largely since the Che Guevara styled Marxist Revolution starting in the 1960s, brought to the USA by the Weather Underground, who no longer know anything at all about our foundations of freedom. At least three US generations have been Pavlov raised on Marxist principles and they no longer believe in American freedom, liberty, or justice for all.

For the record, equality and equity are not the same things. In fact, they are polar opposites. Equality means everyone is treated the same, no matter race, creed, or color. Equity is a Marxist term, meaning a superior power (.gov) will decide your station in life, for benefit of another. It’s overt Marxism…

Making matters much worse, as America now exists in a greatly weakened state, ripe for the plucking, Global Nazi Groups like the World Economic Forum, World Health Organization, and International Monetary Fund have set their sites upon the final destruction of the USA and all independent sovereign nations. They launched the global movement to destroy freedom via their maniacal COVID 19 Great Reset.

Even worse is the fact that almost every major American corporation is a global partner in the plot to destroy freedom everywhere on earth. Their motto for YOUR future… is “YOU WILL OWN NOTHING AND BE HAPPY…” which means, they will own everything, and they will define happy for you.

In 2024, every American will face the same decision… AMERICA FIRST (or) AMERICA GONE!

Personality politics are no longer relevant. All that matters now is the future of freedom, here in the USA and anywhere else on earth. The global Marxists will either succeed in ending the USA and freedom everywhere, under their One World Order at the command and control of global Nazi Klaus Schwab and his minions – or… the American people will finally cast off all past political propaganda aimed at dividing in order to conquer, and vote AMERICA FIRST!

Freedom is either in it’s final hour, or at the beginning of its rebirth. The American people, not the politicians, not the judges, and not the global Marxists, will decide this…

“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”  —Thomas Jefferson

Gosh darn! After three years of Biden’s open borders and 9.6 million illegal aliens now living off our tax dollars, as well as destroying our laws, the House GOP wants to bring impeachment proceedings against the director of the Department of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas.  Note that Mayorkas has broken every law on the books. He’s aided and abetted all those 9.6 million illegal aliens.  He’s as guilty as the worst criminals in government in U.S. history.  He’s aided drug traffickers who have killed over 200,000 Americans as to drug overdoses.  He’s aided sex traffickers to bring girls and other children into our big cities.  He’s aided and abetted Islamic terrorist to set up terrorist camps in America.  He’s caused our cities and schools to go bankrupt.  But note that he’s doing everything his boss, Joe Biden, wants him to do.

Speaker Johnson KNOWS the impeachment against Mayorkas is dead on arrival in the U.S. Senate because the democrat majority WANTS as much illegal alien migration as possible.  Those people are out to destroy our country…and they are doing a bang-up job of it.

I’ll bet you can’t wait to be the first victim of a Muslim terrorist attack. You know it’s coming, and you know some of us are going to die.  Or, you’ll be the victim of an illegal alien drunk driver. Or, your daughter will be raped by one of them. Or, you’ll lose your job to one of them. Or, they will be perched outside your home ready to rob you when you go on vacation.  Or, your schools will be trashed with their kids. Or, your school lunch programs will be overwhelmed by their numbers. Either way or whatever way, we, the American public faces an endless crisis because of Biden’s invasion.

Have you ever seen a more useless body of men and women as those 535 scoundrels pretending to serve the American people?  Have you ever seen such waste, stupidity and outright incompetence as those elected officials in Washington DC?  Give billions to Ukraine’s to preserve their borders, but allow our borders to be overrun!

But then, you must look at the governors of those 25 democrat controlled states.  They are as useless as the senators from those states.  Then, you have to look at the mayors of the big “Sanctuary Cities” that welcome the nightmare of illegal aliens.  But once the numbers overwhelm them, they want your tax dollars to pay for all of it.  They are fools, idiots and just plain morons to welcome 9.6 million illegal aliens.

The fact is, this illegal immigration nightmare warrants a whole new turn-over of lawmakers. We need Senators and House Members who will actually abide by their oaths of office—to uphold the U.S. Constitution.

Who are the 33 percent of Americans who think that senile, frail and totally incompetent Joe Biden is doing a GREAT job as president?  Where and how did they get THAT stupid to think he’s just a wonderful president?

Last night on the news, California Governor Gavin Newsome praised Biden’s work.  At the same time, his state runs a $60 billion debt. He’s got 4 to 5 million illegals in his states. He’s got the world’s largest illegal underground economy. His prisons are loaded with illegals.  His schools are awash in languages, illegal aliens, free lunches and lowered academics to the point that no one graduates with any knowledge or skills that would make them productive members of our society.

This “thing” won’t end well for any of us.  Biden and the democrats are creating an intractable welfare state of foreigners who live off our tax dollars.  At some point, we won’t be able to pay the interest on the $35 trillion national debt.  At some point, we won’t be able to hire enough cops to fight the incredible lawlessness going on in our cities. At some point, we won’t be able to deal with the millions of illiterate inner city youth that don’t know an “A” from the letter “M.”

As I’ve said before, we need an educated, moral and ethical citizenry in order for the U.S. Constitution to function.  Do you think we’re going to keep it at this rate?  Do you think we’ll get hold of the $100 billion in shoplifting now going on annually across this country?  How are we going to maintain our culture when Biden is importing every kind of culture that has failed its citizens from around the globe?

We need to vote out 90 percent of Congress if we hope to survive even to 2030.  We’re in serious DEEP you know what!

“Racism is not dead, but it is on life support — kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as ‘racists’”  —Thomas Sowell

“The next time some academics tell you how important diversity is, ask how many Republicans there are in their sociology department.”  —Thomas Sowell

The recent exposés on Claudine Gay, Harvard’s former president and current embarrassment, illustrate what we critics were saying about affirmative action decades ago: it promotes unqualified people into positions of responsibility, hurting their institutions.

Claudine Gay is such an obvious case of a Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity (DIE) appointment that I’d think even leftists would be appalled.

J.D. Vance’s tweet wasn’t atypical of conservatives noting the obvious: “She got her job not through merit, but because she checked a box.”

That would have been something she couldn’t plagiarize, one of the cardinal sins of academia at which she’d been caught red-handed.

Ms. Gay will be returning to her tenured faculty position.

What I am reasonably sure of: had I been caught copying from the writings of others in my doctoral dissertation, or articles for academic journals, without giving proper credit, it would have meant the end of my career aspirations as a professor which turned out to be unexciting in any event. I’m just another white guy, after all.

What led to this was Ms. Gay’s awkward response to allegations of antisemitism at Harvard in the wake of Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza. Pro-Palestinian student protests had erupted on a lot of campuses including Harvard where a well-publicized letter by “33 student groups” (names withheld) blamed October 7 on Israel, noting the longstanding humanitarian crisis in Gaza and holding Israel “entirely responsible for all unfolding violence” and that “the apartheid regime is the only one to blame. Israeli violence has structured every aspect of Palestinian existence for 75 years.”

The letter, which appears to have been scrubbed from the Internet, was read as implying that Israeli victims of Hamas “deserved it.”

To say this prompted an explosive reaction in the Harvard community doesn’t begin to cover it. Students associated with the letter found themselves doxxed. Donor money was withdrawn. Job offers were rescinded. Etc.

Jewish students claimed they felt threatened.

On December 5 (useful timeline here), Ms. Gay and two other university presidents on campuses that had experienced pro-Palestinian disruptions, Liz Magill at the University of Pennsylvania and Sally Kornbluth at MIT, were grilled by Elise Stefanik (R-NY) who asked point blank, “Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard’s rules on bullying and harassment?”

Ms. Gay’s reply: “The rules around bullying and harassment are quite specific and if the context in which that language is used amounts to bullying and harassment, then we take, we take action against it.”

She’d evaded instead of answering the question.

Ms. Magill and Ms. Kornbluth supplied similarly evasive responses. Rep. Stefanik called for their resignations.

The next day Ms. Gay tried to clarify: “There are some who have confused a right to free expression with the idea that Harvard will condone calls for violence against Jewish students. Calls for violence or genocide against the Jewish community, or any religious or ethnic group are vile, they have no place at Harvard. Those who threaten our Jewish students will be held to account.”

On December 9, Ms. Magill resigned her position under similar circumstances.

She, too, will return to a tenured faculty position.

Harvard continued to back Ms. Gay as allegations of plagiarism unrelated to the above kerfuffle began to surface, including in her dissertation. Now on national radar, she scrambled to get corrected a number of past publications, trying to minimize the worsening damage to her reputation and that of Harvard.

More allegations came. On January 2, she resigned and issued this embarrassing statement:

“This is not a decision I came to easily. Indeed, it has been difficult beyond words because I have looked forward to working with so many of you to advance the commitment to academic excellence that has propelled this great university across centuries.”

Academic excellence? What does that phrase even mean these days?

Affirmative Action.

I’ve been writing on affirmative action for over three decades now, including what was, unfortunately, my first book. I say unfortunately because the book nearly ended my academic career. I was naïve, with no idea of either the power of the academic/cultural left, or the degree to which more responsible academic liberals hesitating over rising pseudo-subjects like “feminist ways of knowing.” Such claims as that race was a “lens” through which populations see the world were rising in prominence in academia, so that the ”dominant” group (white males) sees the world one way and that “oppressed” groups (everyone else) sees it another. One of my favorite queries in response to such projects was whether airplanes would fly, or bridges stand, for feminist and “Afro-centrist” scientists and engineers.

“Movement” conservatives, too, were terrified of being called racists. This has been their Achilles heel from the start. I’d hoped for backing from outfits like the Heritage Foundation, but found none.

Go back to 1971. That year, the Supreme Court handed down a landmark decision, Griggs v. Duke Power. This decision ended the right of a company to administer competency tests which plaintiffs contended were discriminatory. This effectively changed the meaning of discrimination from an action taken by an individual or organization to a statistical imbalance.

This bureaucratic way of looking at discrimination led to pseudo-concepts such as underrepresentation, or underrepresented groups, and from there to equity, which is not the same as equality. Equity presupposes policies that correct the imbalance even if these policies mean differential treatment of individual group members. The bureaucratic requirement: representation in organizations and on governing boards reflective of percentages in the general population.

Something that has never existed in any multi-ethnic society anywhere in the world.

This, and many other inconvenient truths are ignored, as prolific author Thomas Sowell who researched the matter thoroughly during the 1980s and 1990s informed us in numerous books. Sowell penned articles like “Affirmative Action: A Worldwide Disaster” where he argued persuasively that the range of policies going by that name, no matter how well-intended, (1) invariably provided favors to some groups at the expense of others; (2) encouraged resentment by those others that might have been mitigated by education for actual nondiscrimination; and so (3) make racial hostility worse, not better, not merely reinforcing undesirable racism but creating conditions for eventual violence between favored and nonfavored groups.

I argued in Civil Wrongs that this is what we’d seen: not an alleviation of distrust and conflict between groups but more of it. With more groups aboard the affirmative action bandwagon (invoking yet another academic pseudo-concept, intersectionality), the kind of tribalism we’d once hoped to transcend had roared back in the guise of identity politics. By the 1990s this included radical feminists and “gendered” this, “gendered” that; homosexuality and the rise of fake phobias (homophobia); and by the 2010s, transgenders and the notion that men can become women and women can become men — and boys, girls; and girls, boys! — through “gender affirming care.”

Pointing out that this is biologically nonsensical can be career-ending in the present environment! Those arguing against allowing biological men to compete in women’s sports are pilloried with accusations of transphobia: the fake phobia that emerged during the 2010s. Former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines is the best known example of someone who faced physical attack by militant transsexuals when she criticized their participation in women’s sports at San Francisco State University.

This began in the policy world with preferences for some at the expense of others. The intellectual world had given us the cultural Marxist notion of straight white Christian “cisgendered” (yet another ridiculous pseudo-concept) males as the “historical oppressors” of all these other groups.

Truth: there are many workplaces and other environments where whites and blacks, men and women, work together and get along just fine because they are at work on common problems.

Activists and professional publicity hounds, however, fan the flames of mutual distrust at every opportunity, often with brazen dishonesty. Corporate media feeds on this because it gets clicks. Just look at how the George Floyd conflagration was handled. It’s clear that Derek Chauvin had no chance whatsoever of getting a fair trial. He is, for all practical purposes, a political prisoner of the DIE mentality.

DIE Begins to Collapse. How Much of Academia Will Go Down With It?

American academia is losing credibility.

The reasons for this go beyond dogmatic commitment to DIE — which, so far, has continued even though a more conservative Supreme Court has struck down affirmative action as unconstitutional (it always was, as it violates the constitutional concept of equal protection under the law).

One can look at how academic institutions handled the covid fiasco, for example, how they hopped uncritically on board with masking, lockdowns, and then the mRNA shots.

Or one can just note the ridiculous expense of getting a degree now. When I was an undergraduate (1970s), you could attend a public university for around $500 per semester and a good private one for perhaps three times that. Compare that to today’s fees of sometimes $10,000s per year, and many wonder if listening to leftist professors for four or more years is worth being saddled as much as six figures of student loan debt (the debt is paid to the federal government but was originally backed by banking leviathans such as JP Morgan Chase which aren’t about to allow it to be written off!).

I digress slightly. The population of men on campuses has been dropping for well over two decades now. At some campuses, women now exceed 60 percent of the student body. The anti-male sentiment of academic feminism, now prevalent in the humanities and social sciences, is the elephant in the front room.

Men are being polite. They aren’t going where they aren’t wanted. How comfortable can they be in an environment where one of the official dogmas is that they are latent rapists: where they hear that one out of every four women will be sexually assaulted during their college years?

Whites are also the one group whose status or standing in society is dropping. For over two decades now we’ve been hearing more and more about “deaths of despair”: premature deaths from treatable conditions, opioid and fentanyl use including overdoses, and suicides.

Working class whites now subsist in a culture that blames them as a group for history’s mistakes, like slavery. It claims they still benefit, in ways they find utterly invisible, from “systemic” or “structural” racism: the first premise of the critical race theory that began to come of age during the politically correct 1990s. Public school administrators deny belligerently that their schools teach this to white children although they’ve been caught numerous times, especially during the covid lockdowns when education went online and parents could see for the first time what had been going on in a lot of classrooms.

One of the ploys has been to eject parents from public school board meetings and threaten to accuse them of “domestic terrorism.”

In what ways, though, are white people they responsible for the black crime rate in Southside Chicago: for the fact — for fact it is — that black lives often don’t seem to matter to other blacks.

I have the strong impression that they mattered far more in Dr. King’s day, and that this exemplifies the utter failure of DIE ideology — assuming its goal ever was to benefit the black community and not simply provide a road to influence for a few unscrupulous opportunists (white as well as black).

What is clear is that most of higher education is determined to hang onto DIE no matter what. Give a close reading to this job listing which came my way just the other day (though I’ve not applied for an advertised academic job in over ten years now I never unsubscribed from this list).

At [redacted] Community College we value the ability to serve students from a broad range of cultural heritages, socioeconomic backgrounds, genders [sic.], abilities and orientations. We prioritize applicants who demonstrate they understand the benefits a diverse student population brings to a community college. The successful candidate will be an equity-minded [sic.] leader committed to student success achieved through collaboration with faculty, classified staff, administration, students and community partners who are also dedicated to closing equity [sic.] gaps.

An equity-minded individual is a person who:

1. Understands the importance of holding ourselves accountable as educators for closing equity gaps and engaging in equitable practices;
2. Reframes inequities as a problem of practice and views the elimination of inequities as an individual and collective responsibility;
3. Encourages positive race-consciousness [sic.] and embraces human difference;
4. Supports institutional practices that both develop and sustain culturally responsive teaching and learning environments; and
5. Strategically builds support for and participation in equity-related initiatives across both our internal and external communities.

Just like a single Supreme Court decision reversing Roe v. Wade didn’t circumvent the pro-abort death culture that doubtless cost Republicans in the 2022 midterms, a decision striking down affirmative action requirements on constitutional grounds isn’t going to thwart the antiwhite racists (“antiracists”) who have risen to prominence over the past decade or so, especially when the above-mentioned opportunists can parlay DIE programs and consultations in corporate America into six-figure incomes.

Meanwhile, DIE itself is riddled with inconsistencies and other outright hypocrisies.

*My inversion of DEI to get DIE is deliberate, of course.

I have good news, and bad news.  First the good news, from Psalm 33: “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD.”  Now the bad news: God is not pleased with the United States of America.  Almighty God is no longer Lord of our nation.  In Moses’ last days, as his death was near, he instructed the Israelites specifically and emphatically as to how they should conduct themselves, how they should raise and train their children and he warned what would happen if they ever forsook the Lord their God, who gave them the Promised Land as their inheritance.

The same blessings and cursings that God declared through Moses in the book of Deuteronomy for the nation of Israel apply to us, and all nations of the world.  When a nation honors God and follows His commandments, when the people are thankful to Him for all His provision and protection, and live as His true, genuine children, they are blessed beyond measure.  But when they turn away from Him, worship and serve other gods, and fill their lives with sin, hedonism, depravity and lasciviousness, they are cursed beyond measure.  Any nation that turns back to God, repents and honors Him as Lord once again will be restored, but I don’t see that happening in the USA.

It’s been said that if God does not pronounce harsh judgement upon America, He should apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.  Indeed, I can’t imagine we deserve any less than those cities received, and very likely, this once-greatly-blessed nation will soon experience the same destruction.  Right now, I believe we’re living out the words of the prophet Amos, when he wrote, “‘The days are coming,’ declares the Sovereign LORD, ‘when I will send a famine through the land — not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the LORD.’”

This began in the 1960s when our government removed prayer and Bible reading from our public schools, and we’ve been in decline as a nation ever since.  No student of American history can deny that.  And God is the one Who sets up rulers and kings.  We have the government we deserve, with our public servants now our masters.  As we turned our collective backs on God, God turned us over to the demonically controlled Obama and it appears that all the demons that inhabit this man have been turned loose to wreak as much havoc as possible.  We’ve never recovered from his “fundamental transformation of America,” and in fact, it continues to this day.  Just look at who is running things today in the Biden regime; the vast majority are Obama minions, and this is, indeed, Obama’s third term.

While there is still a remnant of true Christ-followers here in the United States, the remnant is small.  I trust the Lord will preserve and protect those who are truly His. But for the most part, we’re living in a nation now where most people don’t know God and don’t want to know God, or hear anything about Him.  They can’t be bothered, as they revel in their lavish, self-centered lifestyles, their minds now so warped they don’t realize they’re poor, blind, and naked.  It’ll take a wake-up call of Biblical proportions to wake these sleeping fools up, if that’s even possible at this point.

Now, we’re experiencing what Moses warned about in Deuteronomy 28: “The foreign resident among you will rise higher and higher above you, while you sink lower and lower. He will lend to you, but you won’t lend to him. He will be the head, and you will be the tail.

 “All these curses will come, pursue, and overtake you until you are destroyed, since you did not obey the Lord your God and keep the commands and statutes He gave you.  These curses will be a sign and a wonder against you and your descendants forever. Because you didn’t serve the Lord your God with joy and a cheerful heart, even though you had an abundance of everything.  You will serve your enemies the Lord will send against you, in famine, thirst, nakedness, and a lack of everything. He will place an iron yoke on your neck until He has destroyed you. 

 “The Lord will bring a nation from far away, from the ends of the earth, to swoop down on you like an eagle, a nation whose language you don’t understand, a ruthless nation, showing no respect for the old and not sparing the young…They will besiege you within all your gates until your high and fortified walls, that you trust in, come down throughout your land. They will besiege you within all your gates throughout the land the Lord your God has given you.”

Friends, in case you’re not aware, our nation’s gates have already fallen.  Our enemies are already here, and they’re ravaging our land like locusts.  It didn’t have to be this way, but we got the so-called “leadership” we deserved, after denying God decade after decade as we became ever more callous and rebellious toward our God, our Savior.  Now the wicked, who rule over us, have opened the flood gates and welcomed our enemies.  Ignorant of history and Biblically-illiterate, the American populace has chosen to believe the lies; indeed, God Himself has sent them strong delusion.  Thinking themselves wise, they’ve become fools, given over to depraved minds.

With the censorship of truth in America today, and given that we have a mainstream media that no longer does “journalism,” but rather is the propaganda arm of the communist regime in power, it’s impossible to get real numbers, but according to the government’s own reports, at least 10,000 so-called “migrants” have been entering the United States through our open borders EVERY DAY for the past three years. That’s 3 million, six hundred and fifty thousand illegals every year.  And be aware, these are just the numbers the government tells us about.  And be aware, they only tell us what they want us to know.  The real numbers are most certainly much higher.

Put in perspective, in the past three years, the total number of illegal migrants flooding through our borders — south AND north — is more than the combined total population of 15 American states.

I have nothing against immigration, as long as it’s legal.  My own grandparents were immigrants.  When my grandfather left Ireland, he came here as an indentured servant, and he came here legally, swore an oath to our nation and became an American.  His travel here wasn’t paid for by global communist organizations.  He didn’t receive anything free.  He certainly wasn’t handed a wad of cash, monthly food stamps, hotel rooms or homes to live in, nor did he ever receive free medical care.

He came here to work, build a company and raise an American family.  That’s not what’s happening with our open borders today.  The so-called “migrants” are coming from all over the world, from third-world communist nations, and they’re intent on bringing the communism they claim to be “escaping” from to all of us here.  They’re not just coming from Mexico.  In fact, in speaking with a Mexican citizen, I was told the Mexican people are furious with the United States government for opening our borders, because as the migrants flow northward, they’re destroying everything in their path — which is the country of Mexico.

Mexican authorities have reported a four-fold increase in the number of invaders coming from Islamic countries in Africa and the middle east, as well as from China and other parts of Asia.  They’re also coming from Venezuela, where the government has released its violent criminals from jail, along with their insane from insane asylums.  They’re also coming from Brazil, Ecuador, Nicaragua, and Cuba, to name just a few.

As has been widely reported, a startling number of these “migrants” are single, military-age men.  They’re not bringing their families, because they’re on a military mission.  The open border situation has also caused a crisis of human trafficking, especially of women and children.  Unaccompanied minors who show up at the border are often paired with other migrants, who are then paid to travel with them and “deliver” them to cities far into the interior of the US, and they’re never heard from again.  We have blood on our hands as a nation, because we have allowed this to happen on our watch.

According to a report by the Heritage Foundation, in 2018, half of all the criminals prosecuted in federal courts were illegal aliens, charged with crimes ranging from drug trafficking to murder to kidnapping.  And that was when our border was supposedly “closed.”  Imagine what’s happening now.

But of course, the rule of law has been suspended for certain people now, even as the rules have been re-written for others.  Patriots and those who believe in national sovereignty are the “new criminals,” the so-called “domestic terrorists.”  Innocent men and women rot in prison cells as political prisoners, while violent thugs are given free reign.  Free everything, really.

Under the current regime in power, the invasion process has been streamlined.  “Welcome Centers” are set up on the opposite side of the border; then the invaders are transported to “Welcome Centers” on this side of the border.  From there, they’re either released to go where they please, or given a choice of destinations deep within our country.

Some thought it ironic and fitting when border-state governors began flying and busing the invaders to the “blue” “sanctuary cities.”  Many Americans thought, “good for them… those cities will get what they asked for.  Let them deal with it.”  But this is not a good plan, for anyone.  On the contrary, these “red state” governors are actually aiding and abetting the process — dispersing vast, vast numbers of illegals deep into all parts of our country.

Again, many of these are single, military-age men, here for a purpose, and equipped with free cell phones.  I expect they’ll be getting “the call” to officially begin the revolution, attacking all at once, all across the nation sometime soon.  Because the regime is threatened by a political candidate who espouses nationalism and “America first.”  A free and fair election simply cannot be allowed, because as Godless as our country’s become, Americans are still fed up with the lawlessness, the two-faced so-called “justice system,” and the deliberate destruction of the country.

And even as our cities, states and nation sink deeper and deeper into bankruptcy, struggling under the burden of supporting millions of “takers” who give nothing back in return, the federal government is spending untold billions on free stuff for the invaders.  Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) are receiving handsome paychecks for helping to facilitate the invasion.  Many of these NGOs are supposedly “Christian-based.”  Who would have ever thought this could happen in the United States of America?

Last summer, thousands of migrants were sleeping in O’Hare Airport in Chicago.  In New York City, public schools were recently closed to house migrants instead.  In cities all across this country, hotels are filled with migrants, who can’t speak English, and are unaware of our culture and customs — many don’t even know how to use toilets, and so they don’t.  In Texas, an extremely vast area north of Houston is being developed as housing for the invaders.  And a good friend in Florida has told me about how huge subdivisions are being built near his home — these are gated communities, filled with non-English speaking people who never leave to go to work, and these brand new homes have quickly become slums, as the residents there trash them.

As I read Revelation 18, I cannot help but see “Mystery Babylon” as our beloved United States.  I encourage you to read that chapter.  The similarities will give you chills.  As we go about our everyday lives here in America today, our country is beginning to implode.  Things have progressed so quickly now that I don’t see a way to save this sinking ship, without a miracle of God and a great deal of incredibly undeserved mercy on His part.  And by the way, if someone calls you a “Christian Nationalist,” wear that label as a badge of honor.  Nationalism is not evil.  God created the nations.  He destroyed Babylon, and we certainly need many more true Christians equipped for the work of the ministry to boldly preach the gospel to those who may still listen.  But without massive individual and national repentance and the Holy Spirit being poured out mercifully on us all, we’re finished. “Babylon the Great” is fallen.

President Biden’s war with Iran is illegal and unconstitutional, under the terms set by Biden for President Trump. “Let’s be clear,” said Biden in 2020. “Donald Trump does not have the authority to take us into war with Iran without Congressional approval. A president should never take this nation to war without the informed consent of the American people.” But on January 22, two Navy SEALs were killed in a secret mission authorized by Biden and his AWOL Defense Secretary to seize Iranian weapons.

Unfortunately, conservatives have failed to demand accountability from Biden over the standards he set for Trump. It appears that most Republicans have gone AWOL on the important issue of war and peace.

Of the 24 members of Congress objecting to Biden’s illegal war in a letter, only eight are Republicans. They were Reps. Andy Biggs (R-AZ); Greg Casar (R-TX); Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA); Harriet Hageman (R-WY); Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL); Nancy Mace (R-SC); and Thomas Massie (R-KY).

Yet, this is a winning issue for former President Trump, who is quick to point out that Ukraine and Israel were not invaded when he was president and the shipping channels in the Red Sea were not under constant military attack by Iran and its proxies.

“As representatives of the American people,” members of Congress declare in the letter, “Congress must engage in robust debate before American servicemembers are put in harm’s way and before more U.S. taxpayer dollars are spent on yet another war in the Middle East. No President, regardless of political party, has the constitutional authority to bypass Congress on matters of war.”

It’s a simple question: why don’t Republicans apply the same standards to Biden that he applied to Trump?

The failure to do this helps explain why the Democrats think they can sink Trump’s campaign through legal terrorism of the kind practiced by Jack Smith and Fani Willis. The Republicans play a namby-pamby version of politics. Democrats play for political power and get away with murder.

The Navy SEALs who gave their lives were Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Christopher J. Chambers, 37, and Special Warfare Operator 2nd Class Nathan Gage Ingram, 27.

An August, 2023, Fox News poll found that only 2 percent regarded foreign policy as the most important issue of the campaign. In the wake of the Navy SEAL deaths, that number should rise dramatically – if the Republicans decide to make war and peace an issue in the campaign. They would be on solid legal and constitutional grounds if they decide to do so.

Instead, Republican foreign policy “experts” are saying that Biden should hit Iran without any approval from Congress.

The “Battle for the Red Sea” is underway and the American people have not been informed or given their consent to this war.

When was a war with Iran over commercial shipping ever declared by the U.S. Congress?

Why are Navy SEALs dying to protect commercial cargo that makes money for multi-national conglomerates?

With foreign wars accelerating, including Iran and Pakistan exchanging military strikes, the world is going through more conflict and chaos.

Yet Nikki Haley claims Trump produces “chaos” in world affairs.

In addition to the deaths of the Navy SEALs, Biden launched what the Pentagon called “joint strikes” in response to “a series of attacks launched by the Iran-backed group [the Houthis] against commercial ships operating in the Red Sea.” Our so-called ally in this endeavor was the United Kingdom “with support from Australia, Bahrain, Canada and the Netherlands.”

That is the modern-day “Coalition of the Willing,” amounting to not very much.

I say: let loose the left-wingers on their president Joe Biden.

Consider the views of Marjorie Cohn, professor emerita at Thomas Jefferson School of Law and a former president of the National Lawyers Guild, who argues that Biden’s war on Iran and Iran-backed groups is illegal by violating the U.S. War Powers Resolution.

“Although the U.S. began bombing Yemen in October, Biden did not formally advise Congress until January 12,” notes Cohn.  A letter is not sufficient when American lives are at stake.

I usually don’t cite the views of left-wing lawyers, but I think she makes a convincing rationale for Biden’s impeachment over the illegal and unconstitutional war.

She points out that Biden invoked Security Council Resolution 2722 to justify his attacks, but the resolution does not authorize the U.S. airstrikes on Yemen.

I also think Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) makes a valid point when she says, “If there’s time to build an international coalition, there should have been time to come to Congress.”

But Biden prefers going through the United Nations, not the Congress.

We understand that some of the opposition to Biden’s war on Iran is based on sympathy for Iran or hatred for Israel. But those of us who believe in the rule of law and the Constitution can oppose Biden’s war for other reasons having to do with the law and the Constitution.

But why is that case not being made by so-called conservatives?

The simple fact is that, on top of the wars involving aggression against Ukraine and Israel, Biden is getting the United States involved in another “forever war” with a significant part of the Muslim world.

Haven’t we learned our lesson from the many “wounded warrior” commercials we see about the veterans who made it back with missing limbs and mental problems?

A very interesting 2019 story from NBC News, usually a mouthpiece for the Biden regime, says the following: “Waging a presidential campaign amid rising tensions with Iran 12 years ago [2007], Joe Biden, then a senator from Delaware, had a warning for President George W. Bush should he decide to take military action without congressional authorization.”

Biden declared, “I want it on the record, and I want to make it clear. If he does, I will move to impeach him.”

A Biden spokesperson said in a statement to NBC News that, “An illegal war that puts at risk thousands of American lives and would bog down the U.S. military in conflict in the Middle East for years would certainly qualify as an impeachable offense.”

Biden should have been impeached over what critics called his “unlawful nuclear deal between the United States and Iran.” He built up the military power of Iran before it boomeranged on him. So he exploits his own mistakes, in a classic case of bumbling and stumbling the United States into war. This fool for a president now wants Israel to agree to another Arab/Muslim state on its border, with the ability to import arms from Iran and Russia.

This insanity could further spark a World War III.  It appears we are already in one.

A Harvard CAPS-Harris poll shows most Americans, 80 percent, support Israel over Hamas. That is well and good. But Biden is now dragging the United States into a war with Iran because his own appeasement of Iran failed. This is how wars begin. This is how, with Ukraine and Israel under attack, wars expand into a third World War.

To make matters worse, Iran and its sponsor Russia probably know what the Biden Administration is doing, and are likely encouraging a new war in the Middle East. CNN acknowledged that U.S. intelligence memos and briefing materials covering topics including Ukraine, Iran and the United Kingdom were discovered in a private Biden office in 2022 from his time as vice-president. He had no legal right to these documents.

Yet, Biden gets away with these crimes while “Special Counsel” Jack Smith prosecutes former president Trump for having documents he is entitled to have under the Presidential Records Act.

For his part, as the campaign continues in 2024, the “War President” Joe Biden will try to look presidential. The media will do their best to prop him up.

When will the Republican establishment say enough is enough? Reclaiming national sovereignty means not only protecting the border but the House of Representatives returning to its constitutional duty and exercising its powers of war and peace.

Speaker Johnson should immediately initiate hearings into the impeachment of Joe Biden over his illegal war before more American lives are lost.  No issue is more important.

Today we’ll touch on the cosmic battle, the six moves before checkmate, and personal application.  I’ll introduce a couple concepts here and start to fill them in with more detail in the coming weeks.  As is always the case, don’t believe me carte blanche.  Use my thoughts as a springboard for your own study.  There’s a good chance I’m missing some details and maybe some of you can share more insight so we can all get a fuller picture.

The Cosmic Battle

A great place to start to wrap your head around this is to read The Unseen Realm by Dr. Michael Heiser.  You can read his book, listen to his lectures on YouTube, and/or his podcasts on The Naked Bible.  I’m going to summarize the teaching, but to understand the proof of the essence, you’ll want to study Heiser’s work.  He has the receipts of proof.

The essence of Dr. Heiser’s teaching is the (mostly) untaught concept that God created gods in what Psalm 82 calls the Divine Council.  The Divine Council is commonly referred to as the “sons of God” in Scripture.  There are two references in Genesis 6 (vs. 2 and 4) and three in Job (1:6, 2:1, 38:7).   If you want an overview before you get the book (or in lieu of the book), Dr. Heiser has a 23-page overview here.

Some of those sons of God rebelled against God by interfering in human affairs after Creation.  That rebellion is casually referenced in Genesis 6, probably because it’s assumed the original readers/listeners of the Genesis account would also be readers and students of Enoch, [who covers that rebellion in great detail].  That rebellion is what led to the great Flood (or Deluge) of Noah’s day.

These “sons of God” are divine beings, not human, and endeavor to corrupt humanity for their own purposes of control that cause the premise of the cosmic battle.  Understanding this foundation is absolutely critical to grasping the (diabolical but failing) globalist agenda of today.

Whether or not you agree with this is mostly irrelevant.  The globalist elite are absolutely dedicated to this.  So whether it’s true or false or partly true/partly false is again almost irrelevant.  Those intent on global dominion are 100% sold out to this and have no intention of acquiescing to what they would refer to as stupid minions, or workers, basically the majority of people who they deem worthless and in the way.

I realize some of these concepts are going to be met with a lot of resistance, especially in mainstream Christianity.  I’m not here to sell you anything.  I’m presenting what I’ve been learning, and you can evaluate its merit and make your own decisions.  I have nothing to gain from presenting my understanding, (and actually I have much to lose).  But if you’re unwilling to look at the evidence of the claims, don’t bother to write me and tell me how wrong I am.  It takes study and an open mind to understand these concepts.  I’ll be giving you in short bursts what I’ve been studying for years.

Dr. Heiser teaches that Deuteronomy 32:8-9 reads in the original Dead Sea Scrolls:

“When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance (נחל, nchl), when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God (האלהיםֹבני, bny h’lhym) But the LORD’s portion is his people, Jacob his allotted heritage”.  (emphasis mine)

[Modern translations have “according to the number of the sons of Israel”, which is a mis-translation that he proves in chapter fourteen of his book.  He also has a 27-page paper breaking it down here.]

This indicates that God gave the nations (that were divided after the tower of Babel) over to the authority of the (lesser) gods of the Divine Council, but set aside Israel as His own.  He then set Himself to separate a people who would hopefully be a light to the world, distinguishing between those who walk with God and those who do not.  If you evaluate the Mosaic law and instructions to the Israelites after the Exodus in the light of this foundation, I think you’ll see most of the laws were almost specific to contradict the corrupt teachings learned by the people from the gods.

You have to read Enoch to understand the level of corruption the gods had brought to humanity.  In the Book of Enoch (Enoch I) and the book of Daniel, those gods of the Divine Council are also called the Watchers.  For example, Enoch is instructed (Chapter 16) to tell the Watchers who rebelled and caused rebellion on earth, “You have been in heaven, but all the mysteries had not yet been revealed to you, and you knew worthless ones, and these in the hardness of your hearts you have made known to the women, and through these mysteries women and men work much evil on earth.”

This degeneration on the earth (see Enoch 7 and 8) was a thorough corruption.  Perhaps those who have studied the secret organizations of the wicked on the earth will understand that those who have set themselves in the highest organizations of power and influence on the earth today are just as Enoch described in 65:6:  “…because they have learned all the secrets of the angels and all the violence of the devils, and all their powers – the most secret ones – and all the power of those who practice sorcery, and the power of witchcraft, and the power of those who make molten images for the whole earth…”

Chapter 69 goes through the list of the Watchers’ crimes against God and His order, and how they taught this wickedness to the men and women on earth.  It’s a sobering list; it’s a list that plainly demonstrates the same wickedness is on the earth today, passed down from those in rebellion to God, whether in flesh or in spirit.

When you understand that this is a cosmic battle of gods in rebellion to the Supreme God…. When you study the origins of the original crimes against humanity… It becomes plain that today is just an extension of an ancient war, and it’s crescendoing to its climax.  The same crimes the ancient gods inflicted upon humanity through cunning and deceit and promise of wealth and power, are the same crimes running the world today.

When you realize earth is the battlefield….  The days of Noah and the days of Lot seem even more relevant than ever.  Current events corroborate this battle engages the whole of humanity on this plane called Earth.

Remember, this is what THEY believe.  Remember that Hillary’s emails include an email with a reference to “sacrifice a chicken to Moloch”?  Of course that’s been soundly deciphered as code words for pedophilia and child sacrifice.  But the word choice of “Moloch” isn’t random.  Moloch is one of those gods they worship.  Moloch and Baal and the list goes on.  [Look up Bohemian Grove and the reports from infiltrators.] They have pledged their allegiance to these gods, and for the most part, these gods have given them their worldly success and riches and power.  They are indebted to these gods.

These gods require sacrifice, the blood of innocent.  Survivors and victims of the horrific child trafficking rings tell similar stories of rituals they were made to watch or participate in with blood sacrifices, including human, usually children.  They are always in a type of ceremony, almost always with black cloaked people around an altar of sorts.

They worship and have pledged their allegiance to these gods who rebelled against God.  They prefer these gods over Creator God.  They think they can overthrow God.  They are also running on a timeline, and to them, they have to create a set amount of chaos in order to have a chance to throw the timeline back to their agenda.  They are panicked and they are desperate because it’s not going as well as they thought.  They thought they’d have this in the bag by now.  There was an eight year plan that was supposed to be the coup de grâce  — unfurled in 2016.  They spent decades building up the under girding for the final unfurl. Their plans were thwarted when Trump was elected (in spite of their best efforts to insulate against that).  It set their timeline back considerably, and time is not a luxury they have anymore.  They’re working against a ticking clock and they know it.

So it doesn’t matter a great deal whether we believe in these gods they believe in (though there are plenty of Scriptural clues they exist), because the globalist tools DO, and they are acting accordingly.

The frenzy before the climax

If the Project Looking Glass information be correct and ultimately the plans of the globalists will fail and an awakening of sorts will instead happen, then Bill Wood’s analogy of the seven moves until checkmate bears weight for the here and now.  For it means the people intent on their seizure of earth and its inhabitants for their own purposes are more desperate than ever to achieve their objective as they feel it slipping through their fingers.  They are willing to roll out every action in their playbook in desperation to swing the momentum to their side.

Even now the WHO is projecting a new deadly pandemic (DiseaseX).  Experts are predicting a Black Swan economic event.  Our border has been purposefully and methodically infiltrated with enemies of the state.  We’re allegedly tottering on the brink of any number of wars that could lead to world war.  Our skies have never been more polluted, and Americans’ health has never been so poor.  There are no shortages of weaknesses; there is no stretch to see the demise of America from enemies without and within, from recklessness and immorality and a host of things that put us on a curse rather than blessing list in God’s Book.

If we would be mindful of the lessons we learned in Covid-19, perhaps we will not allow the same and even more damage than the first round.  Their modus operandi is always control through fear.  It’s a basic playbook, and should be quite familiar to Christians, as we’re called to faith over fear.  We’re supposed to agree with God, not fear.  We’re supposed to walk out the Kingdom of God principles, not fall into the traps of man.  But for the most part, Christianity in Kingdom power in America is a bit rusty, a little dusty, and a lot asleep.

I don’t know all the evil the world players are going to roll out in the coming passage of time.  I know they will, though.  And to the extent of agreement we give them is the extent of control they will gain.

“The words of the wise heard in quietness are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.  Wisdom is better than weapons of war…..”  (Eccl. 9:17)  Do you see that?  Wisdom.  Oh we need wisdom.  Wisdom is heard in quietness.  Find the quiet place and seek His face.

Let’s learn from the mistakes of those who have gone before.  “In repentance and rest you will be saved.  In quietness and trust is your strength.”  (Is. 30:15)

In repentance, (shuwbah), returning to God…in rest (Arabic Nachath) descent, moving from a higher level to a lower level…. you will be saved (yasha) safe, free.

Return to God.  Move from a place of pride, of self-sufficiency to a place of returning to God, depending upon Him.  This will save you and avenge you, it will make you free.

In quietness (shaquat) to repose, rest, lie, a state of calm, freedom from worry…. In trust (bitchah) as in confidence, sureness… is your strength (gebuwrah) force, victory.

Recall the rest of that passage!  The people rejected this counsel and fled (in fear) and put their faith in a foreign government (Egypt – symbolic of the way of the world) to save or protect them.  Yet God said if they would return to God, come down from the place of self-sufficiency and pride, His people would have been saved, avenged, made free.  If God’s people will rest, lie in a state of calm, refuse to worry and instead put their confidence in God, they would be strengthened and find victory.

I am quite aware of the armies entering our nation and assembling in designated areas to await their orders.  I realize our government has sold us to our enemies.  I realize there are biolabs here and abroad concocting a number of deadly toxins.  I realize we are being crippled and diseased by malicious “food” practices, compromised “medical” facilities, and continual poisons in our air, food, water, bodies and minds.

At the end of the last article I exhorted you to listen to a message from Jamie Winship.  In that message he illustrated the necessity of understanding your God-given identity, why you were created, what your purpose is, and how to hear God’s voice.  It had so many practical instructions and illustrations for how we will proceed in the frenzied days ahead.  Every answer we need for every problem and threat I’ve listed (and those I haven’t) is found in God and the solutions will be acted upon by His children who know their God and know their identity.  The warriors will fight.  The educators will teach.  The healers will heal.  The encouragers will give hope.  The intercessors will petition the Throne for strategies.  And the list goes on and on.

My Takeaway

So now is the time to return to God, to descend to a place of rest and trust in Him instead of a puffed up place of self-sufficiency, or a panicked state of distrust and fear.  As I sought God at the end of 2023 for wisdom for the coming year, He was faithful to give it.  He showed me there will be trials and turbulence and even disaster ahead.  He plainly showed there will be judgments that will bring punishment and correction.  He also plainly showed me I could not go through it without loss, and that instead I was to pull aside to a quiet place.  The storms will rage around me outside, but from my place with Him and in Him, I will be safe and saved.  He is no respecter of persons.  What He will do for me He will do for you, if we just meet the requirements.  Remember:  repentance, rest, quietness and trust!

Here are a few things to get up in arms about or some ammunition to use when discussing these issues:

America has lost its oldest factory — a gun manufacturing facility. Two-hundred year old Remington Arms, one of America’s major arms producers, has shuttered its doors at its iconic and venerable main manufacturing plant  in the tiny town of Ilion, New York where 230 workers were employed. As recently as 2013, about 1,400 workers were producing 4,900 guns per day at this site. Over the last 10 years, most of the  production has been farmed out to other manufacturing sites around the country. These operations will now be consolidated at a new facility in  LaGrange, Georgia, which will serve as global headquarters for the company, and where research and development activities will be conducted. New York State’s anti-business and anti-Second Amendment fervor were the final straws causing the closing. If only Remington would convert the New York facility into a museum displaying the history of American arms and perhaps American innovation in general! That would provide employment to the former workers and give an economic boost to the local area which doesn’t have any sizeable employers. Of course, it is probable given the mind-set of New York (if you can suggest that the State has a mind!) that this particular history would be as welcome as the history of New York’s involvement in the slave trade!

Meanwhile, the FedGov and the leftists are suppressing the use of noise suppressors that reduce the noise guns make. Yet our leftist “comrades” usually make a lot of noise themselves over noisy equipment such as leaf blowers and gas lawn mowers. However, in the case of the aforementioned gun noise “suppressors,” obviously leftists don’t mind the noise firearms make – and one supposes that’s because they believe that other lefties will get “up in arms” over the issue and increase their demand for gun control. At its root, the left’s hostility towards these particular noise suppressors is actually animosity aimed at gun ownership itself. It takes almost two-thirds of a year for the FedGov’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (the ATF) approve the use of a suppressor; an expensive, intrusive, and time-consuming process involving providing fingerprints and photos of the person seeking approval, as well as undergoing a background check, paying a fee of $200 per firearm, and getting one’s name placed on a registry of ATF regulated items. This process applies to personal purchases whereas commercial purchases can receive approval within 72 hours. The above process applies each time one procures or transfers a suppressor for each individual gun! A suppressor only reduces, but does not completely silence the noise of a firearm, but the reduction becomes significant when  it comes to one’s hearing when a firearm is frequently used.

In another firearms issue there is a most interesting question. That is, In the state of California, what happens to you if you successfully defend your home from a home invasion using your legally owned and carried firearm? Answer: You get your Second Amendment rights “suspended” until such time as you are able to convince the GovMint that you deserve to get them back. In other words, it is a complete reversal of our judicial system’s original intent, innocent until proven guilty. In the Land of Fruits and Nuts, a law abiding gun owner who is forced to use his weapon in self-defense is considered guilty until proven innocent. This isn’t a joke! It recently happened to a Californian named Vince Ricci.  If California were a “constitutional-carry” state, this could not have happened. “Constitutional-carry” means you don’t need a permit to either own or carry a gun. There are 27 such constitutional-carry states in the US. If the GovMint has no powers of revocation, it will not be able to meddle in a citizen’s inalienable individual rights.. The blue states used the mandated “Covidiocy” to refuse or delay issuing concealed-carry permits. Of course, one must wonder what the one had to do with the other, but then . . New York State officials have been trying to make the process of issuing concealed-carry permits contingent upon a review of the content of the petitioner’s speech, something that is absolutely unconstitutional or, more to the point, so much for our First Amendment guarantee of free speech.

For millennia, Western nations have hewed to a principle first laid out by Roman Emperor Justinian in Corpus Juris Civilis: “That which a man does for the safety of his body, let it be regarded as having been done legally.”  The idea was that to deny a man whatever was required to protect himself from attack must be considered as having been legally done otherwise, the man would be open to murderous assault without any means of defending himself. The restrictions placed by governments on gun ownership invert the proper relationship between the citizen and the state, thus transmuting the rights of the citizen into mere privileges that might be removed by the state at any time. Such an interpretation of law should – and must – not be tolerated in a free nation.

Gun rights and gun ownership are an essential part of mainstream American culture. From November 10^th through 13^th, 2023, a poll sponsored by NBC News found that 52% of registered voters affirmed that they or someone in their household owns a firearm. This figure is the highest yet in this annual poll. Over the past 10 years, the number of gun owners has increased 10%, or an average of one percent per year. These figures are probably greatly underreported since many gun owners feel that gun ownership is under attack by the government and that the use of polls is just another way to obtain information about gun owners. Over 90% of respondents cited “protection” as a reason to own a firearm, which far outpaced other options such as hunting, sport shooting, and collecting. Of course, no one doubts that the hunter, sport shooter and collector are also able to utilize their weapons for protection as well as the rest. Below one may read the opinion of the Founders of this nation regarding the rights of its citizens to “keep and bear arms.”

George Washington:

“A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent on others for essential, particularly for military, supplies.” —George Washington, First Annual Address, to both House of Congress, January 8, 1790

“And that the said Constitution be never construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press, or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens, from keeping their own arms; or to raise standing armies, unless necessary for the defense of the United States, or of some one or more of them; or to prevent the people from petitioning, in a peaceable and orderly manner, the federal legislature, for a redress of grievances; or to subject the people to unreasonable searches and seizures of their persons, papers or possessions.” —George Washington, Debates of the Massachusetts Convention of February 6, 1788

“That no man should scruple, or hesitate a moment, to use arms in defence of so valuable a blessing, on which all the good and evil of life depends, is clearly my opinion.” —George Washington, letter to George Mason April 5th 1769

“It may be laid down, as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every citizen who enjoys the protection of a free government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even of his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency.” —George Washington, letter to Alexander Hamilton May 2, 1783

Thomas Jefferson:

“No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.” —Thomas Jefferson, Virginia Constitution, Draft 1, 1776

“I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.” —Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, January 30, 1787

“What country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance. Let them take arms.” —Thomas Jefferson, letter to James Madison, December 20, 1787

“The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are laws of such a nature. They disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes…. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” —Thomas Jefferson, Commonplace Book (quoting 18th century criminologist Cesare Beccaria), 1774-1776

“A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.” —Thomas Jefferson, letter to Peter Carr, August 19, 1785

“The Constitution of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.” —Thomas Jefferson, letter to John Cartwright, 5 June 1824

“On every occasion [of Constitutional interpretation] let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying [to force] what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, [instead let us] conform to the probable one in which it was passed.” —Thomas Jefferson, letter to William Johnson, 12 June 1823

“I enclose you a list of the killed, wounded, and captives of the enemy from the commencement of hostilities at Lexington in April, 1775, until November, 1777, since which there has been no event of any consequence … I think that upon the whole it has been about one half the number lost by them, in some instances more, but in others less. This difference is ascribed to our superiority in taking aim when we fire; every soldier in our army having been intimate with his gun from his infancy.” —Thomas Jefferson, letter to Giovanni Fabbroni, June 8, 1778

Benjamin Franklin:

“They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” —Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759

“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote!” —Benjamin Franklin

George Mason:

“To disarm the people…[i]s the most effectual way to enslave them.” —George Mason, referencing advice given to the British Parliament by Pennsylvania governor Sir William Keith, The Debates in the Several State Conventions on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution, June 14, 1788

“I ask who are the militia? They consist now of the whole people, except a few public officers.” —George Mason, Address to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 4, 1788

“That a well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the proper, natural and safe defense of a free state; that standing armies, in time of peace, should be avoided as dangerous to liberty; and that, in all cases, the military should be under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power.” —George Mason, Virginia Declaration of Rights, June 12 1776

Noah Webster:

“Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed, as they are in almost every country in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops.” —Noah Webster, An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution, October 10, 1787

James Madison:

“Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of.” —James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788

“The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country.” —James Madison, I Annals of Congress 434, June 8, 1789

“…the ultimate authority, wherever the derivative may be found, resides in the people alone…” —James Madison, Federalist No. 46, January 29, 1788

William Pitt:

“Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.” —William Pitt (the Younger), Speech in the House of Commons, November 18, 1783

Richard Henry Lee:

“A militia when properly formed are in fact the people themselves…and include, according to the past and general usage of the states, all men capable of bearing arms…  “To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them.” —Richard Henry Lee, Federal Farmer No. 18, January 25, 1788

“No free government was ever founded, or ever preserved its liberty, without uniting the characters of the citizen and soldier in those destined for the defense of the state…such area well-regulated militia, composed of the freeholders, citizen and husbandman, who take up arms to preserve their property, as individuals, and their rights as freemen.” —Richard Henry Lee, Gazette (Charleston), September 8 1788

Patrick Henry:

“Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined…. The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able might have a gun.” —Patrick Henry, Speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 5, 1778

“Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?” —Patrick Henry, Debates in the Several State Conventions on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution

St. George Tucker:

“This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty…. The right of self-defense is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any color or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction.” —St. George Tucker, Blackstone’s Commentaries on the Laws of England, 1803

Thomas Paine:

“The supposed quietude of a good man allures the ruffian; while on the other hand, arms, like law, discourage and keep the invader and the plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. The balance of power is the scale of peace. The same balance would be preserved were all the world destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside. And while a single nation refuses to lay them down, it is proper that all should keep them up. Horrid mischief would ensue were one-half the world deprived of the use of them; for while avarice and ambition have a place in the heart of man, the weak will become a prey to the strong. The history of every age and nation establishes these truths, and facts need but little arguments when they prove themselves.” —Thomas Paine, “Thoughts on Defensive War” in Pennsylvania Magazine, July 1775

Samuel Adams:

“And that the said Constitution be never construed to authorize Congress to infringe the just liberty of the press, or the rights of conscience; or to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens, from keeping their own arms; or to raise standing armies, unless necessary for the defense of the United States, or of some one or more of them; or to prevent the people from petitioning, in a peaceable and orderly manner, the federal legislature, for a redress of grievances; or to subject the people to unreasonable searches and seizures of their persons, papers or possessions.” —Samuel Adams, Massachusetts Ratifying Convention, 1788

Joseph Story:

“The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them.” —Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States, 1833

Elbridge Gerry:

“What, Sir, is the use of a militia? It is to prevent the establishment of a standing army, the bane of liberty …. Whenever Governments mean to invade the rights and liberties of the people, they always attempt to destroy the militia, in order to raise an army upon their ruins.” —Rep. Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts, I Annals of Congress 750, August 17, 1789

Alexander Hamilton:

“For it is a truth, which the experience of ages has attested, that the people are always most in danger when the means of injuring their rights are in the possession of those of whom they entertain the least suspicion.” —Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 25, December 21, 1787

“If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government, and which against the usurpations of the national rulers, may be exerted with infinitely better prospect of success than against those of the rulers of an individual state. In a single state, if the persons intrusted with supreme power become usurpers, the different parcels, subdivisions, or districts of which it consists, having no distinct government in each, can take no regular measures for defense. The citizens must rush tumultuously to arms, without concert, without system, without resource; except in their courage and despair.” —Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 28

“[I]f circumstances should at any time oblige the government to form an army of any magnitude that army can never be formidable to the liberties of the people while there is a large body of citizens, little, if at all, inferior to them in discipline and the use of arms, who stand ready to defend their own rights and those of their fellow-citizens. This appears to me the only substitute that can be devised for a standing army, and the best possible security against it, if it should exist.” —Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 28, January 10, 1788

“Little more can reasonably be aimed at, with respect to the people at large, than to have them properly armed and equipped; and in order to see that this be not neglected, it will be necessary to assemble them once or twice in the course of a year.” —Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 29 January 9, 1788

Tenche Coxe:

“As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people before them, may attempt to tyrannize, and as the military forces which must be occasionally raised to defend our country, might pervert their power to the injury of their fellow citizens, the people are confirmed by the article in their right to keep and bear their private arms.” —Tenche Coxe, Philadelphia Federal Gazette, June 18, 1789

“The militia of these free commonwealths, entitled and accustomed to their arms, when compared with any possible army, must be tremendous and irresistible. Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American … the unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people.” —Tenche Coxe, The Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788

John Dickinson:

“With hearts fortified with these animating reflections, we most solemnly, before God and the world, declare, that, exerting the utmost energy of those powers, which our beneficent Creator hath graciously bestowed upon us, the arms we have compelled by our enemies to assume, we will, in defiance of every hazard, with unabating firmness and perseverance employ for the preservation of our liberties; being with one mind resolved to die freemen rather than to live as slaves.” —John Dickinson, July 6, 1775

Roger Sherman:

“(C)onceived it to be the privilege of every citizen, and one of his most essential rights, to bear arms, and to resist every attack upon his liberty or property, by whomsoever made. The particular States, like private citizens, have a right to be armed, and to defend by force of arms, their rights, when invaded.”
—Roger Sherman, Debates on 1790 Militia Act

Zachariah Johnson:

“The people are not to be disarmed of their weapons. They are left in full possession of them.” —Zachariah Johnson, Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 25, 1788

January 26, 2024

How is it possible that someone is talented and involved enough to run for political office and win the election – but once in office, has no clue of the origins or purpose behind the very policies they are forced to consider? Specifically, policies dealing with comprehensive planning, such as Smart Growth, 30×30 land issues, energy, and transportation, all of which affect day-to- day life in the community. These are the issues that every city council and county commission in the nation is now faced with imposing on the community.

Yet when citizens attend council meetings and seek to speak out in opposition, discussing how such policies are negatively affecting their property rights, small businesses, and their neighborhoods, they are often met by their elected council members staring at them, with arms folded, scowls on their faces, and gavels in hand, ready to stop their testimony. Even worse, if opponents try to explain that such policies are rooted in the global Agenda 2030, the Green New Deal or the Great Reset, now the officials really become agitated. You will get several different responses. A council member will say, “I have never heard of this before.” Another will chime in and say, “These policies are all local.” And then comes the final comment on the issue, “This is just how it’s done; everyone is doing it.”

A growing tactic by local and county governments is to hide behind the edicts of government-appointed boards. As I’ve worked across the country to stop the assault on private property and the farm industry, many elected officials have responded saying they oppose such plans, but there is nothing they can do because appointed utility boards oversee the issue. This was the case in Iowa and South Dakota as local residents fought to stop the enforcement of the Carbon Capture Pipelines in which private corporations were using appointed public utility boards to gain the power of eminent domain to just take the land they wanted for this private corporate project.

The fact is appointed boards are created by elected officials, usually to be the workforce to carry out programs that they approved. These appointed boards represent no one. They do not have the right or the power to make policy. They certainly do not have the power to prevent elected officials from representing and protecting the wishes of their constituents. The elected officials are the Boss of appointed boards! Any politician who uses the lame excuse that they have no authority to stop the actions of the appointed board has a different agenda. They want to avoid dealing with the very people who put them in office specifically to protect their rights. In short, they are cowards working against the people!

Where is the Republican Party? As insanity spews out of the Democrat Party, the long-time overseer of limited government, free enterprise and individual liberty has no response, no unified plan to counter the Democrats, and, indeed, seems confused rather than offended by the Socialist antics.

For the election of 2023, the Virginia Republican Party’s official plan to win the statewide election to control the Legislature was to encourage Republican voters to sign up for mail-in ballots or to be sure to vote early rather than to wait and vote on election day. For the past three election cycles the Democrats have proven this ballot strategy to be the kingpin of ballot insecurity. Democrats have the people in place to watch all of the early ballots as they arrive. This allows them to gain an early knowledge of how the vote is going and where they need to push for more ballots for their own candidates. The result of the Virginia election was no surprise to anyone knowledgeable in how the Democrats operate – the Republicans lost everything!

How could the leadership of the party not understand that they were falling right into the Democrat trap? Why won’t the Republican Party, nationwide, take up the fight to demand election day voting with paper ballots, as the means to assure election integrity? A great example of how effective this works is the recent Iowa Republican Caucus, where votes were all cast at the same time on paper ballots and the results were known almost instantly. For over two hundred years this is how the United States conducted elections in a fair and honest process. Yet the Republican Party remains silent and complicit in assisting its own demise.

At the congressional level it gets even worse. A few years ago, as Republicans were faced with the most open and blatantly radical agenda yet proposed by the Democrats, they missed their greatest opportunity to go on the attack and expose the insanity of the real goals of the Global Left. The Green New Deal represents the largest step ever taken by the Socialists/ Sustainablists forces that have been pushing Agenda 21 for over 30 years.

Introduced by one of the most radical members of Congress, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortrez, Republicans like Senate leader Mitch McConnell simply laughed, saying it was just too radical to be taken seriously. Then the laughing really started when the Republican-controlled Senate brought the Green New Deal up for a vote and the tally was 57-0. The Dems didn’t even vote for it themselves, went the joke. Such a silly, stupid little girl, they said with great hilarity!

Leaders of many establishment conservative organizations in Washington, DC laughed too.

Well, the fools are the Republicans, and some of those establishment Conservatives, as they failed to understand the determination of these forces behind that “silly little girl.” The Democrats set a trap and the Republicans marched right into it.

What really occurred is that the Socialist Democrats made a classic negotiating tactic. They came to the table and delivered the most radical, complete, all-inclusive agenda for the total take-down of the American Republic, our free enterprise system, our property rights, and our way of life.

The Republicans were completely unprepared for it. Since they have ignored the warnings of those of us who have led the fight against Agenda 21 for 30 years the Green New Deal sounded too nuts. Too far out. No one would fall for it. They laughed and dismissed it without a thought. The Senate vote showed them!

But, true to form for these elected officials who refuse to take the time to research and understand the true goal of such policy, the Republicans fell into the trap! For example, Florida Republican Representative Matt Gaetz announced that he was working on the Green REAL Deal! Said Gaetz, his bill would be more reasonable. The classic response. In the Senate, Tennessee Senator Lamar Alexander countered with his “Manhattan Project for Clean Energy.” The difference from the Green New Deal? Almost nothing! Senator Lindsey Graham said “We owe it to the country to have an alternative to the Green New Deal.” He said he was frustrated because large parts of the Republican Party still resist the idea of climate change legislation.

Did any of these “leaders” ever take the time to study the roots of such legislation and read what the forces behind it say it’s all about? Sen. Graham and other faltering Republicans seem to not understand that any attempt to provide “an alternative to the Green New Deal” actually serves to legitimize the dangerous, wrong-headed leftist environmental movement.

This is exactly what the Democrats were counting on. They made an outrageously radical proposal that moves the agenda miles down the road and then – to be more “reasonable” the stupid Republicans join right in with just a little smaller proposal. That’s how we lose our nation – by being “reasonable” to tyrants.

This is the tragedy that is taking place across the nation, at every level of government. Those elected to represent the people don’t take the time to research and understand the true origins and purposes of the issues. They are surrounded by Non-governmental Organizations (NGOs) that serve as the ground troops for the global forces. The NGOs bring them the legislation, the talking points, and the grant money – all in a neat little package. And they apply pressure to ensure the officials support their agenda. Incredibly, the officials call the NGO’s stakeholders – like they are their constituents who elected them. Meanwhile, except for a few, we aren’t there. They feel no pressure from us, no threat to their future. Is it any wonder why local citizens who do try to speak out, get the evil eye when they come to oppose those policies?

To change this situation before the nation is completely lost, Americans who oppose such policies must learn a very important lesson. The other side has a clear agenda, and they will not back away from it. They will not accept defeat. BUT – supporters of the American tradition of Freedom do not have such an agenda. We have simply been reduced to defending freedom. It’s not working as we have lacked the ability to express what we mean by freedom.

We must find a way to define our own agenda and get on the offensive, demanding freedom in every government action at every level of government. We must learn to paint a clear picture as to what life in America will be like under our vision of freedom. Make your opponents responsible for their own policies. Put their names to them. Make them defend their plans.

In the founding documents of this nation, we were assured that the government didn’t grant us our rights -we are born with them. Our rights are not “Constitutional” rights. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights grant us nothing. You have those rights despite those documents. We are “endowed by our Creator,” Government’s job, according to our founders, is to protect what we have naturally.

In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson said that our liberty is “self-evident.” In today’s language that would mean “obvious.” Unfortunately, there is nothing obvious. As sad as it is, Liberty should be obvious. It is to some, but we make the mistake of thinking it is obvious to our fellow Americans.

Today, we do not have a government that respects those rights. Just as our founders experienced with the King, we now have a long train of abuses from the government. We now stand in the same place as our founders stood in 1776 when they took action to end the tyranny of a king who refused to address their grievances.

We the People created Congress and all other levels of government. Unlike a kingship, they work for us! They’re out of control because earlier generations allowed them to do so. For too long, we haven’t been there to ensure they are listening to the people. But the forces who seek total control are there, and so elected representatives think they are representing them, not you and me.

Today’s freedom activists must organize effectively. That specifically requires action at the local level. The further government gets from the people, the more corrupt it becomes. Let’s organize to change that. Now is the time to prepare for this year’s vital election. Do not accept ‘the defeatist attitude’ that we can’t win. Get involved. Don’t let your local Board of Elections cop out by saying the State legislature makes the rules, so there is nothing they can do. Organize to keep the pressure on them to make sure all is run fairly and legally. Volunteer to be election observers and ensure votes are counted legally and accurately, and don’t allow anyone to push you out. Forces which may want to do harm are less likely to do it if they know they are being watched.

Tyranny ends when free people stand strong. That is our duty for this new year.

Did you listen to the MTG Hearing on injuries caused by the Covid 19 vaccine the CCP bioweapon? If not listen. It was refreshing to hear the truth.

Over and over it was discussed that the vaccine was designed to intentionally hurt people. How many people do we hear about who “Died Suddenly”? Over and over Representatives asked WHY? To understand WHY you must understand the enemy. Refusing to learn and name the enemy guarantees you lose.

The enemies of humanity are the Globalists. Davos was the gathering place of those who think that just because they have duped us for years, stolen our riches and future, they can continue without pushback. According to the Globalists, we should roll over and comply. In order to make this happen the Davos theme this year was the horrifying spread of mis or dis-information. Of course they are the ones spreading those lies. They think we are dumbed down enough to listen and follow their commands. At their Davos meetings, Globalists spent their time with drugs, hookers, lavish parties while determining how they would like us to live under their extreme surveillance and constant monitoring. We better pay attention. As I said, their theme this year is mis or dis-information that we are spreading. What does that mean? It means they are looking for ways to censor us. They have weaponized every government agency in almost every country. Nothing is more clear in America as Jim Jordan discovered that the FBI has a terror watch list of people who bought a MAGA hat, gun, Bible. If you did your credit card company will turn you in to the FBI and you will go on the terror watch list. That is called Fascism. Fascism is when the government dictates rules to businesses who must follow or lose.

“The goal now is a socialist, redistributionist society, which is nature’s proper steward and society’s only hope.” – David Brower, founder of Friends of the Earth

The Globalists ultimate goal is Depopulation. They say it all the time we just don’t listen. They try to eliminate humans with experimental programs or drugs make money. They believe there are too many of us to control. They want wars, abortion, famine, drugs, suicide, euthanasia, mutilation because every policy of theirs ends the same- Death for the humans. Please read their words. It will make everything they do clear. Humans are their experiment to sacrifice because they crave eternal life. Organ harvesting is extremely important for their longevity.

“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

Controlling and ruling America is their prize. America is one of the richest countries in the world. Filled with natural resources America is really self sufficient. But the big problem is America is owned by We the People, Not They the Government. America is a Constitutional Republic NOT a Democracy. Unfortunately due to lack of a civics education Americans don’t understand what that means. Basically we answer to G-d, not Government. In America we are all equal. We vote for Representatives to carry our wishes to better our lives. We are all to follow the same laws in the Constitution regardless of ethnicity or race. The federal government does not own much land or natural resources and has no rights to sell anything.

“The only hope for the world is to make sure there is not another United States. We can’t let other countries have the same number of cars, the amount of industrialization, we have in the US. We have to stop these Third World countries right where they are.” – Michael Oppenheimer, Environmental Defense Fund

Sadly we gave those representatives our power. We made money more important than G-d. We neglected our job of oversight and now we suffer the results. We can start oversight by naming those who voted to bring on more debt, more illegals, destroy the dollar and lock us into a life of slavery by their lies. We must start naming them as they are in both parties. A great start is the 107 Republicans who voted for a CR giving America to Biden to destroy. They are not interested in the invasion on the border. They must destroy nation states because they seek a One World Government housed in the UN and Davos.

Globalists don’t want countries which is why they don’t want borders. Globalists want regions with unelected bureaucrats running the show out of the UN or Davos. They want to own and control every aspect of human activity. When they say you will own nothing they mean it. They must redistribute our wealth. They must replace our Constitution (say NO CON-CON) They must inflict the poverty of socialism/fascism. Until we name and identify the enemy and their motive, we will lose as we fight each other instead of the Globalists. The enemy is in Davos, the UN, the banking cartel, the NGOs and they are in both parties. You can find the Globalists in the GOP by seeing the House members who voted for the CR to extend the Globalist government and keep the borders open. Let your legislator how you feel about their vote.

“Regionalism must precede globalism. We foresee a seamless system of governance from local communities, individual states, regional unions and up through to the United Nations itself.” – UN Commission on Global Governance

Globalists will correlate every policy to climate change. By lowering the bar, using Affirmative Action and DIE (Diversity, Inclusion, Equity. Stop letting them control the language. DIE is what they mean.) they have used the fear of climate to regulate business as well as our lives. Dumb Down people don’t ask questions they accept. The result is our once exceptional business model of demanding quality has become business striving for mediocrity at best. America is being run by Affirmative Action graduates modeled after Kamala. Accepting lies without question has become the norm. Parents how do you teach your child not to lie when they watch their leaders lie all the time. Worse than that is we accept the lies.

“No matter if the science of global warming is all phony climate change provides the greatest opportunity to bring about justice and equality in the world.” – Christine Stewart, former Canadian Minister of the Environment

Globalists know full well their plans do nothing for the climate or for society as a whole. That is OK since the purpose is to redistribute the wealth of the middle class. They must destroy the middle class because the middle class are the innovators, creators activists and dissenters, the truth tellers. Globalists will not tolerate competition or opposition. They lie constantly to achieve power.

“Isn’t the only hope for the planet that the industrialized civilizations collapse? Isn’t it our responsibility to bring that about?” – Maurice Strong, founder of the UN Environment Programme

Globalists tell us how much they hate us it all the time. We just don’t listen. They experiment on humans to make money and eliminate humans. There are too many of us to control. They want wars, abortion, pandemic, famine, drugs, suicide, euthanasia, mutilation. Every policy of theirs ends the same- transfer of wealth for them and death for us. Read their words. It will make everything they do clear. Humans are their experiment to sacrifice because they crave eternal life. Organ harvesting is extremely important for their longevity.

“The big threat to the planet is people: there are too many, doing too well economically and burning too much oil.” – Sir James Lovelock, BBC Interview

All is not grim if we act. Globalists can not handle the truth. The world is waking up and all over populists are winning elections. Will it be easy? NO. It took them a long time to get this much control. They will not go away without a fight. But the end the truth will win.

Heritage President tells WEF the truth.

Good News
Did you know we nixed the NAC, Natural Asset Company? It was wonderful to hear about all of the calls the SEC and legislators got. Getting involved works. But beware. It will come back under a different name. Globalists NEVER stop trying to gain power.

Remember as primaries are upon us to vet your candidates. How do you spot a Globalist? They are in both parties. Its very easy. Just ask your candidate what MAGA means. Most don’t know. Ask why do they not want America to be first? Ask them what kind of government does America have? If they say a democracy, say next. If they say a Republic ask them what is the difference between a democracy and a republic. Then ask hem what a Fascist is.

Is America worth saving? There is only one way to save America that is – with hard work. Are you up to it? Can you share this article with 5 people and ask them to share with 5 and so on? Sharing the truth and applying knowledge is power. This is the only way to save America. You can do it. I know you can.

With over 9.6 million new illegal aliens now camped out in our country, historians will show that America suffered the greatest invasion of its borders, ever, in the entire history of the world. If you add the other 40 million illegals already here, there will come a point that we will not remain the United States of America. American citizenship will mean nothing!

Those historians will expose Joe Biden as the instigator, promoter and supporter of this invasion. Those historians will show that our U.S. Congress did NOTHING to stop it in the first three years, and most likely, will not stop it in the final 12 months of Biden’s reckless, stupid and dementia-plagued administration. Those historians will write that Biden and/or his handlers were the dumbest, most incompetent and most anti-American group in the history of our country.

Those men and women counseling Biden do not/did not know the kind of breakdown, chaos and total loss of America’s sovereignty that they caused.

Last night, Colorado Public Radio reported that my City of Denver now houses 37,500 illegal aliens. They interviewed women of “do-gooder” groups who were trying to find food, shelter and care for people who knowingly broke into our country against our laws. Much like most of National Public Radio, they interviewed completely out-of-touch groups that did not/do not understand that another 50,000 or 100,000 of those illegal aliens will turn “Sanctuary City” Denver into a third world city. And yet, CPR host Ryan Warner will not interview yours truly as to what we’re facing. Colorado Public Radio is a one-sided, liberal radio rag that doesn’t want the public to know what’s really happening.

First of all, they didn’t mention that we already suffer 10,000 homeless Americans and Veterans in Denver who deserve food, housing and care, FIRST, not last. But those American homeless stand at the back of the line because the illegal alien homeless somehow deserve more attention than our own citizens.

Second, those illegal aliens have brought crime, drugs, diseases and shoplifting to our city. They steal anything and everything they can get their hands on! Our car owners must put steel locking sticks to the steering wheels to stop thieves from stealing their cars in broad daylight.

Third, those illegal aliens bring NO value to Denver or Colorado. They only force taxpayers to pay for their families, their care, their schooling, their food, their medical and their housing.

Fourth, this invasion brings us diseases that we do not deserve to contract. This invasion brings drugs that are killing our kids by the tens of thousands. This invasion costs our schools in food and ESL courses. It costs our own students who must be forced to be dumbed down to match the illegal alien children.

I am SO damned angry at Joe Biden for being a totally incompetent, along with being a senile old man who has done more damage to America in the past 37 months than in any president in the past 245 years. I am just as angry at all 100 U.S. Senators and 435 House Members who are totally, completely and absurdly useless, incompetent and bungling politicians. Why haven’t they served their oath of office to the U.S. Constitution? Why haven’t they served Article IV, Section 4 of our mandates to protect our country? What don’t they understand what the end result of these millions of third world immigrants are going to do to our way of life and our standard of living?

I am angry as hell because I’ve witnessed what third world countries look like, how they operate and how their citizens live in mindless poverty, endless illiteracy and total misery. That’s what we are importing into our country. Once those 9.6 million become 20 million and 30 million and on to 50 million, we will LOSE our country to a mob of humanity that cannot function in a first world country. That’s what’s coming our way.

I am angry at my two U.S. Senators Hickenlooper and Bennet for being about as stupid and dumbed-down to this invasion as a high school dropout. They support this invasion. They garner all that power…and they use it to destroy our country. They are as stupid and insipid as those do-gooder women trying to save all those 37,500 illegal aliens in Denver. But they don’t have a clue as to what they or we are going to do with another 50,000 or 100,000 illegals in Denver or all of Colorado. Senator Michael Bennet earned a Ph.D., but possesses the common sense and ability to work simple math as a five year old.

Back in 2013, I visited Bennet’s office. I gave my presentation that I give to colleges on America adding another 100,000,000 people. I showed his staff that it wasn’t sustainable. I advised him to cut legal immigration down to 100,000 a year from 1,000,000 a year. What did that intellectual idiot do? He raised legal immigration to 2,000,000 a year in Senate Bill 744. An idiot, moron and imbecile could think better than Bennet.

And, guess what? As we destroy our own country, we won’t have solved anything because the refugee line of misery grows by 83,000,000 more new babies, net gain, annually added to the world.

What does that mean? Answer: our kids are screwed. We’re going to force them into living in a “beehive society” where you can’t solve anything. Would you want to be here in 2050 when the numbers manifest? How would you like to see us jump from 340 million to 440 million? What happens when the water, energy and resources are exhausted? How would you like to live in any of the top 35 cities in America with their populations doubled? What happens when “catastrophic climate destabilization” rams its way into every corner of your life? Are you ready for that?

Those “woke” kids, and generation Z kids face one hell of a nasty ride. I mean, it’s going to get ugly beyond their P-brain comprehensions or their cell-phoned addicted minds.

I can state this fact unequivocally: Historians will record that Joe Biden was/is THE worse president in the history of the United States…and he’s not done yet.

The first American casualties in the third World War have occurred without a Congressional declaration of war. Two Navy SEALs died trying to intercept Iranian weapons.

Biden’s record as a “War President” could be a wake-up call to voters concerned about their children being called into military service during Biden’s proposed second term.

Young men must legally sign up for military conscription at their local post office.

But don’t worry: the fake news Associated Press assures us that the U.S. military isn’t “laying the groundwork” for a return to a military draft.

This is the military establishment whose Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin was recently caught covering-up his own serious illness and secret hospitalization.

What other secrets are they hiding from the American people?

In the latest example of deepening involvement in another war, U.S. Central Command announced that the two “missing” U.S. Navy SEALs died “during the boarding of an illicit dhow [a small sailing vessel] carrying Iranian advanced conventional weapons…” but there was no explanation or constitutional justification for this military operation.

When Biden ordered military strikes on weapons depots of Iranian-backed terrorist groups in Iraq and Syria, he sent a letter to Congress explaining, “I directed the strikes in order to protect and defend our personnel, to degrade and disrupt the ongoing series of attacks against the United States and our partners, and to deter Iran and Iran-backed militia groups from conducting or supporting further attacks on United States personnel and facilities.”

The U.S. intelligence community believes that Iran is not currently seeking a “direct war” with the United States, reports NBC News, an outlet for the Biden Administration. It is very “direct” for the U.S. military personnel under attack and dying.

We are told that the United States is protecting freedom of navigation. But when that policy leads to active military efforts to board Iranian ships carrying weapons, that means war.

Before the deaths of the two Navy SEALs, it was estimated that Iran-backed terrorists had launched nearly 140 attacks on American troops in Iraq and Syria, with 57 attacks in Iraq and 83 in Syria. It is reported that at least 66 American service members in Iraq and Syria have been injured.

Cries for retaliation are being heard. Former Trump national security adviser John Bolton said on Newsmax that the time to hit Iran is now. Alan M. Dershowitz argues that the United States is even “entitled to destroy Iran’s potential nuclear arsenal in response to the attacks directed at American troops by Iran’s proxies.”

But any such move requires a Congressional a declaration of war. What is more, the source of Iran’s nuclear program is Russia, the same country waging war on Ukraine.

Dan Cox, a Republican Candidate for Congress in Maryland’s 6^th district, warns of Joe Biden dragging the United Sates into another war, saying, “I won’t stand by while our inept ‘leaders’ bumble us into World War III and cost the lives of our children and grandchildren.”

This requires that Congress debate war with Iran before Biden gets us into another war he won’t win.

Anyone with two eyes can see the “Commander-in-Chief” is a bumbling fool. House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mike Rogers, R-Ala., has accused Secretary Austin of being dishonest about his health problems on top of Biden’s unfolding foreign policy disasters.

Not surprisingly, Biden expresses confidence in Austin.

Speaking of war, don’t forget the invasion of our southern border and the poisoning of our people from the Red Chinese working hand-in-glove with the Mexican drug cartels. The pathetic fool Biden claims to have had a Damascus Road conversion on the issue, declaring “Give me the money” to fix the problem he created.

Yet, Biden can fix the problem by return to the Trump policies he abandoned.

Ukraine and Israel were not invaded under President Trump.

Meanwhile, in a campaign to get votes, the national Democratic Party is trying to expand the sales of marijuana to young people by rescheduling the substance as a soft drug, at a time when the Wall Street Journal reports that more teens using marijuana are suffering from psychosis. Meanwhile, the Communist Party USA hails the news that the Democrats have launched a national “My body my choice” abortion rights campaign.

Conn Carroll, the commentary editor for the Washington Examiner, calls the Democratic Party “the party of abortion, marijuana, and pornography,” the latter a reference to one Democratic Party candidate in Virginia who was an amateur porn star.

He forgot one thing – war.

It was in 1976 that Republican Senator Bob Dole had referred to “Democrat wars,” started by or under Democratic Party presidents. Dole had been seriously injured fighting in World War II.

Hitler’s invasion of Europe was encouraged in the same way that Biden dismissed the prospect of a Russian invasion of Ukraine as a “minor” occurrence. Biden also bears some responsibility for the invasion of Israel, since his policies clearly benefited Iran and its military power and influence.

“War President” Joe Biden has presided over wars in Europe and the Middle East and another one is unfolding before our eyes.

But wait: wasn’t it Biden who proudly ended the “forever war” in Afghanistan. “As President,” Biden said as a candidate, “I will use military power responsibly and as a last resort. We will not go back to forever wars in the Middle East.”

What does a third major war in the world mean for Americans fearful of another 12 months remaining in “War President” Joe Biden’s term – and another four years? The issues of war and peace and the return of military conscription must be top priority issues.

Facing the legal terrorism of the Democrats and their corrupt prosecutors, Trump can and should run as a peace president who will end Biden’s forever wars. No issue is more important.

Meanwhile, “My body my choice” should now be applied to those young men facing the prospect of being drafted into Biden’s forever wars. Get ready for another generation of wounded and dead warriors.

to·tal·i·tar·i·an·ism, /tōˌtaləˈterēəˌniz(ə)m/, noun, 1.a system of government that is centralized and dictatorial and requires complete subservience to the state.

Three years later, the facts are known concerning the plandemic and the over 17 million deaths following the experimental jabs (Leviticus 17:11; John 10:10).

We know this has been going on while simultaneously free speech was, and has been, illegally suppressed and censored by Big Tech at the direction of the federal government (Proverbs 17:15).

Right on que, Donald Trump, I’m the father of the vaccine, said he is being promoted (by the conservatives-yesterday’s liberals; Matthew 5:13) again to return into the position of president to finish what it is that he started (John 10:10).

Liberty Counsel just announced that The Next Booster May Be Mandatory…

Jan 12, 2024

“Before COVID ever happened,” says liberal evolutionary biologist Bret Weinstein to Tucker Carlson, Big Pharma figured out “how to portray a disease as more widespread and more serious than it was. It was excellent at portraying a compound as more efficacious than it is, safer than it is.”

That profit-building marketing scheme led to the distribution of a new and dangerous shot that led to hundreds of millions of injuries. Four years into the COVID “crisis,” people are now aware of the danger and are refusing to take the mRNA “booster” shots. So Big Pharma has found another way to increase profits — by getting the World Health Organization (WHO) to compel people to take the shots.

Joe Biden is about to sign American freedom away to an unelected, unaccountable globalist agency primarily funded by a billionaire who just happens to be heavily invested in pharma’s poison. Liberty Counsel is working with legislators to stop him.— Mat

What we can learn from the German farmers, including what we aren’t supposed to infer about what is possible.

For much of this first month of the new year, protesting farmers have practically shut down Germany. They’ve used trucks and tractors to block major highways in and out of Berlin and several other major German cities. They’ve received massive popular support and been joined by others in “low tech” professions (electricians, rail workers, etc.). Additional support has come from their counterparts in The Netherlands who have been fighting this same battle for over a year now, and from Poland and the Czech Republic.

American media only began noticing the protests after they had been going on a couple of weeks. You’d think the world’s largest protest movement shutting down Europe’s largest economy would be an international story on every home page. You’d have been wrong. I think American media began covering what’s been happening in Germany because they had to know alternative media was on it, and that the truth was going to get out one way or the other. If anything, American corporate media outlets (CNN, MSNBC, the rest) ignoring something like this hurts their credibility even more than it’s been hurt already.

What we’re seeing amounts to a mass revolt against planned budget cuts aimed directly at farmers announced near the end of December by the (pro-globalist) Olaf Scholz government that took the reins in Germany last year. The cuts were to include subsidies for diesel fuel and tax exemptions for tractors and other farm equipment.

These cuts — equivalent to massive tax hikes — would cost farmers thousands more euros per year to operate. Their contention is that this would cost them their livelihoods.

The mass protest has all but shut down Berlin and other major cities. In what coverage we have, one sees signs, mostly in German but a few in English reading, “No farming, no food!” and “No farmers, no future!”

Another reads, “When farmers are ruined, food has to be imported.”

In a few cases the revolt has led to calls for new elections, deeming the coalition Scholz leads “incompetent.”

It might be worth noting that these people have been outdoors, sometimes for days at a time, enduring brutally cold weather with subfreezing temperatures. It’s clear: they mean business. We’re seeing people who don’t think they have anything to lose, revolting against “their” government.

The backdrop here is that Germany’s economy is in catastrophically bad shape. Official numbers show that it contracted last year. German citizens have seen huge spikes in energy costs, higher taxes, and massive inflation. A lot of this is due to what happened to Nordstrom last year. Germany’s budget for 2024 made these cuts to absorb tens of billions of suddenly-unavailable euros after the German constitutional court ruled against a proposal reallocating unused emergency covid-19 funds to agricultural and related sectors. That was in November.

In the wake of the present outrage the Scholz administration has backed down a little, retaining tax exemptions for farming vehicles and announcing that subsidies for diesel fuel would be curtailed little by little instead of eliminated all at once as was the original plan.

To the farmers, this was not good enough. They’ve continued the protest.

Joachim Rukwied, president of the German farmers union, stated:

Agricultural policy is being made from an unworldly, urban bubble and against farming families and rural areas. We demand the complete withdrawal of these tax increases without ifs and buts.

The Urban-Rural Divide.

Among the elements in play here is a divide paralleling the one in the U.S: urban versus rural. The former look down their noses at the latter. The latter see the former as clueless about where their food comes from and what it producing it involves.

The latter’s fear is palpable: “right wing” parties such as the Alternative for Germany (AfD), already gaining in popularity, will capitalize on this.

It is important to note that the farmers themselves deny being right wing. “We are not right-wing extremists!” said one. They are just trying to survive in an environment that is increasingly hostile to their interests.

Nevertheless, we’ve seen a reaction not unlike the borderline-violence of the Justin Trudeau regime in Canada against the Canadian Trucker Convoy back in 2022. Those truckers were protesting an unprecedented covid-19 vaccine mandate. Most were, as is usually the case with patriotic groups, peaceful. A few got out of hand. Someone vandalized a memorial statue. The Canadian government and media treated these outliers as the norm. This is typical of corporate media generally.

Remember (Young Global Leader) Justin Trudeau’s words, having slandered the Trucker Convoy in his country as full of “far right white supremacists”:

“Freedom of expression, assembly and association are cornerstones of democracy, but Nazi symbolism, racist imagery and desecration of war memorials are not.”

He then invoked Canada’s rarely used Emergency Powers Act in order to quash the protest by brute force. Banks proceeded with a chilling move: freezing the accounts of those associated with the protest, indicating the degree of private sector cooperation with government (a hallmark of corporatism, the polite term for the merging of governmental and corporate power global elites have furthered).

Returning to the situation in Germany: like other Western governments, the German government has sent money to Ukraine, and like other Western governments, Germany’s Establishment has funneled resources into so-called green initiatives for what some call a “green transition” to fight “man-made climate change.” Such official narratives are taken for granted in corporate media. The first continues to demonize Russia without recognizing that sanctions against Russia have backfired and hurt millions of common people, especially farmers for whom the cost of fertilizer (which comes from Russia) has skyrocketed to near-unaffordability.

The latter continues to smack of invocations of The Science that were seen during plan-demic years to justify authoritarianism. I’ll return to this point.

If Rural Populations Are Moving “Rightward,” Is It Hard to See Why?

Suppose we grant, for the sake of argument, that rural populations worldwide are indeed moving “rightward.”

Why would they do so?

Because “the left,” which long ago defended the interests of working people against those in power, no longer does. It has instead allied itself with globalism and become part of the urban money-and-power structure. Leftists do not seem bright enough to realize that those at the very top of this structure couldn’t care less about the fetishes that drive much of “the left” today (e.g., gender-bending).

In other words, working peoples the world over are turning, at least somewhat, to “right wing populism” because self-identified leftists dropped the ball. They joined the enemy. In most cases, they became the enemy. Parties like the AfD in Germany, Marine Le Pen’s National Front in France, Geert Wilders’ Party for Freedom in The Netherlands; and obviously the Trump-led Republican Party on our side of the Atlantic (also figures like Jair Bolsonaro who is now persona non grata in Brazil courtesy of that nation’s leftist Establishment) have picked it up.

The mass protest in Germany suggests just how despised the urban elites are, even by those who don’t know the behind-the-scenes players. German farmers aren’t further a political agenda of their own. They’re too busy trying to survive. All they want is to be able to sustain their businesses, feed their families, and pass their legacy on to their children.

Or as I’ve said in articles past; what they want is to do their work, deal with those in their orbit peacefully, and otherwise be left alone. They’re up against people and forces that don’t gain power and profit from leaving them alone. Subsidies? It’s hardly their fault that structural factors have made such practices necessary in the West’s increasingly neofeudal brand of elite-controlled hyper-capitalism.

There is good reason to believe that globalists want to do a slow controlled demolition of farming as an industry.

Why on Earth would they want to do that?

Because farming — family farming, not factory farming — enables independence, for the farmers themselves, their families, and local and national economies. It enables health; it enables freedom. Globalists don’t want either one. They don’t want independent commoners, or thriving local or national economies. They want a single, globally seamless, mass consumption “marketplace” (including processed foods and other things they’ve specified) under the control of their corporate leviathans. They are wealthy enough to also control governments who decide such things as subsidies, and also set immigration policies able to dilute the voices of native populations.

The long and the short of it: they want serfs, of whatever nationality and ethnicity, who will depend on them for the necessities of life, including food, which means believing what they are told to believe and doing what they are told to do, and it all be legal.

Very likely, they want fewer of these serfs. Enter the covid-19 shots on top of decades of unhealthy food, diminished economic standing of entire populations, readily available illegal drugs, all leading to hopelessness and a rising suicide rate on top of whatever damage the others are doing. You have a recipe for eventual depopulation.

Liberals and lefties who don’t know any better — they aren’t the brightest lights in the harbor! — are either in denial or are going along with this scheme.

But What About the Climate?

But what about the climate? will scream some of these latter. Burning diesel fuel harms the planet!

I’m not an authority on so-called climate science, which is why I’ve not written about it very much. But Malaysian astrophysicist and engineer turned climate skeptic Dr. Wei-Hock “Willie” Soon is, and maybe we should listen to him when he denies that anyone has established a solid causal connection between the use of so-called fossil fuels generating carbon dioxide, and rising average global temperatures.

It is past time to ensure that alternative points of view have a place at the table versus what has become another dominant narrative, another domain of The Science, which is that human activity, including farming activity, is killing the planet — so we either rein it in or else.

Unfortunately, climate change has become another of those issues, like race and sexuality, about which open and rational international dialogue and debate have become all but impossible because one side insists it has Absolute Truth (“Settled Science”) on its side, and cites another mantra, false equivalence, to shout down critics.

Call me an amateur climate skeptic if you want, but it’s clear to anyone who looks into the history: efforts by globalists to use environmental concerns as a path to power go back at least to the early 1970s. Remember the Club of Rome’s The Limits to Growth? Or the predictions of biologist Paul Ehrlich in works such as The Population Bomb? These efforts made numerous predictions which have proven groundless.

Lessons for Americans the Globalist Elites Don’t Want You to Learn.

There are important lessons here for Americans, depending on what transpires this year and could interfere with Election 2024 being free and open. Within these lessons are the reasons American corporate media don’t want you paying the plight of German farmers any attention.

The lessons are about how to have an effective and mostly spontaneous mass protest that is peaceful. It is peaceful because its leaders and participants don’t want to hurt anybody. Again: they just want to conduct their business and otherwise be left alone. A peaceful mass protest will be effective if it shuts down society to the point where those in power have no choice except to listen.

Our situation doesn’t directly involve agriculture — yet!*

It involves ensuring free and fair elections. It involves we the people, not courts or elites, deciding who will be on ballots in November, and whether we’ll even have an election if it looks as though Trump might win or if the global elites will orchestrate another emergency, fake or real.

I don’t think it likely that the Supreme Court will kick Donald Trump off primary ballots nationally or allow any individual states to do so — especially with the clear support he has (he won resoundingly in Iowa).

Having said that, I don’t think the odds of a ruling favorable to Trump rise to one hundred percent.

The GOP base has to be prepared to take to the highways of America in a fashion identical to that of German farmers, shutting down major thoroughfares wherever possible (leaving lanes open for deliveries and emergency vehicles as the Germans did), should Trump be removed from ballots against people’s will. Such a movement has to be prepared to weather media hostility and possible violence from leftists as well as from authorities themselves.

As I’ve stated multiple times: those who got their power back on January 21, 2021, are likely to do anything to keep Trump 2.0 from happening. They have plenty of cards left to play. Some we’ve probably not seen yet.

Germany’s farmers have shown Americans what to do, and how to do it peacefully.

This includes policing themselves with a few simple rules: no violent rhetoric! No calls for violence against any federal or state officials, or against police! Trump’s legal team has warned of “chaos and bedlam” if we see election interference coming from Democrats or the Democrat-controlled legal system or others with real power. Corporate media have interpreted this as calls for violence. Naturally.

What this means the necessity of keeping the hotheads on their leashes. A handful got out of control and broke windows or fought with police on January 6, 2021. Now, over a thousand Jan-6ers are in prison, their lives ruined. More to follow.

Those professing conservatism should police themselves above all else. If there is violence, let leftists start it. Today’s smartphone technology is able to record and upload confrontations to the Internet instantly. This promises transparency which corporate media only discredits itself further by disputing, or by describing as “baseless conspiracy theories” or “white supremacy” when it is nothing of the sort.

The harsh reality remains: none of us will have corporate media on our side or backing moneyed interests (e.g., Big Tech) on our side — any more than the German farmers do. But like the farmers, we have truth on our side. In the long run, the one that counts truth always has a way of coming out.

*This said, it does seem reasonably to wonder what Bill Gates wants with all that farm land he’s bought up.

January 23, 2024

It must be the new math taught to kids in the government-controlled education (read: indoctrination) system these days, but something doesn’t look quite right about USA elections during this time frame.

Note this….

• Obama wins the 2008 Presidential race after losing 72% of the counties across the country…
• Obama wins re-election in 2012 after losing 78% of the counties across the country…
• Trump wins the 2016 Presidential race by winning 82% of the counties across the country…
• Trump loses re-election after winning 79% of the counties across the country…
• And Biden wins the 2020 Presidential race after losing a record 85% of the counties across the country…

In other words, more than 70% of the country voted against both Obama and Biden, but they still allegedly won. In contrast, with 79% to 82% of the country voting for Trump, somehow, miraculously, almost as impressive as Jesus walking on water, Biden defeats Trump in 2020 having won only 15% of the counties across the country.

Anyone see a problem here?

Of course, democrats have an answer for this obvious anomaly. Democrats control the majority of the voting population in about twenty or so major urban areas. In other words, about 20-democrat illegal sanctuary toilets are controlling the entire country, despite 80% of the country or more, standing opposed.

This is in fact how extreme LEFT democrats stole control of the entire country, despite 80% of the country voting against them in every election cycle. In fact, there isn’t a single “blue state” anywhere in the country. There are only a handful of blue cities, all of them democrat destroyed bastions of crime, corruption, homelessness, drug and sex addiction, murder, and mayhem.

This is why Trump is often referred to as a “populous President,” one highly popular all across the country, all voting demographics, about 80% of the 3143 counties in the USA. The country is not controlled by the people in 80% of the country, but rather the populations in a handful of extreme LEFT urban areas rotten with crime and corruption.

To put a fine point on the matter, democrats and their voters currently control the entire nation from just 477 of 3143 counties won by Biden in 2020. The rest of the country be damned!

This is possible due to USA election systems, which do indeed include many methods of cheating on the part of democrats, especially in 2020 under COVID19 “emergency voting methods.”

As a result, democrat voters feel empowered by their ability to run roughshod over the nation at election time, all from just a handful of urban areas controlled by the DNC, Soros and the WEF. But they didn’t think this all the way through…as they become increasingly tyrannical and heavy handed in their open distain for all freedom and liberty loving Americans in the other 2666 counties….

Fatal Flaws in the LEFTIST End Game

Through their corruption, and many methods of election interference and cheating, they have been able to steal elections and treat the other 80% of the country like a bunch of dumb hicks with no political power at all.

Of course, sooner or later, those kind, generous and patient folks in the other 2666 counties will give up on saving their country in the election booth. They will tire of being run over by a bunch of sniveling bedwetters still living in their mommy’s basement and voting for the worst leaders alive in the USA today and solve the problem another way.

While a handful of urban illegal sanctuaries may have figured out how to outvote 80% of the country, when they force the game to change, the odds will change too.

Most of us on the political RIGHT, for lack of a better term, have been very peaceful and even more patient with the anti-American LEFT, willing to exhaust all peaceful means of saving our Republic from democrats clearly out to destroy it, before moving to the same last resort our Founders were forced to use in 1776.

If democrats continue to force 80% of the country to that breaking point, well, then in an instant, the odds shift hard in favor of all true Americans, those who know we are a Constitutional Republic and not a Marxist democracy.

While 477 counties might be able to outvote the other 2666 counties across the country, they will have no chance at all against 80% of the country in the streets.

Personally, I hope calmer heads and peaceful processes can still prevent that moment in history. But that’s actually up to the democrats.

The Republic will be defended, along with freedom and liberty, and it will be saved. It’s totally in the hands of democrats, whether that will happen peacefully, or violently. They will either stop using tyrannical tactics to force Americans into a corner, or they will find out the hard way what it’s like for about twenty democrat cities to go to war with more than 2666 counties from sea to sea.

Even the vast majority of California is RED, as is Colorado, Michigan, Illinois, and several other democrat-run states.

When the game changes, so do the odds… If democrats have even two brain cells to rub together, they need to stop forcing Americans into this corner, while they still can.

I don’t want this to be settled in the streets…but it sure is easy to predict it.

In 2024, we will either have free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections, or we will be off to the races. 2024 is the breaking point. Trust me on this… I follow growing public sentiments very closely.

WAKE UP DEMOCRATS…WHILE YOU STILL CAN!

Illegal Alien Threatens Independent Journalist After He Was Asked Where He Was From: “You Find Out Who I Am Very Soon”, Jan. 21, 2024

The border INVASION has back fired for the evil doers.  Oh, it’s worked as far as allowing more than 8 MILLION unvetted illegal aliens to be distributed around the country, but now even The UnReachables are starting to realize the “compassionate” theme has brought crime, chaos and in some way is now touching their lives.

We the People have begged “our” government to shut down and secure the border for decades.  BOTH parties have diddled while globalists like Klaus Swab, Bill Gates, Koch, Zuckerberg and other world government advocates have continued moving forward.  And what have the American people done for decades?  They scream about the illegals invasion and turn right around and vote for their incumbent in the primary who then goes on to “win” in the general election.  Re-hire the same incompetent agenda driven miscreants who have allowed this national disaster to grow like weeds.  And, they expected something to change?

Since 2014, (A Bill: Stop all Public Welfare in Any Form for Illegal Aliens) I have written countless letters to Trump after his 2016 election, cc’d to his chief honcho, Stephen Miller and dozens of former and current U.S. House Reps and Senators to get dirty (now deceased) senator Harry Reid’s [D-NV] 1993 immigration bill passed and signed into law.  It IS the strongest anti-illegals bill ever written (Reagan’s was a welcome sign):  Cut off ALL welfare in every form, state and federal.  That bill also blows the BS known as ‘anchor babies’ right out of the water.  It would cause tens of MILIONS of illegal aliens to self-deport.

From big-mouth Rep. Chip Roy to Ted Cruz not a single response nor is this even a consideration by Congress after Congress for decades while Americans are killed/murdered, robbed, raped EVERYDAY in this country by human garbage who have NO right to be on U.S. soil.

Bond set for illegal immigrant deported four times who allegedly killed mom, son in drunken driving crash, Jose Guadalupe Menjivar-Alas is being held in Colorado’s Broomfield County Jail, Jan. 19, 2024 (El Salvador).  Bond?  So he can go out and kill more innocents Americans?  //  Illegal Alien (Honduras) , Charged with Raping Teen Girl, Released into U.S. by Biden’s DHS, May 19, 2023.  “This rape never should have happened,” Autauga County District Attorney CJ Robinson told local media of the incident, noting that Zavala was an illegal alien who first arrived at the southern border in November 2021 using a fake name.

“Despite having a criminal record in Honduras, Zavala was apprehended, processed, and quickly released into the U.S. interior by Biden’s DHS — ending up in Prattville, Alabama, to work in the local construction industry, illegally.”  Another child’s life ruined by a POS.

Our WEF governor (Texas) Greg Abbott finally found his backbone and has implemented some effective actions but as long as illegals continue to rape this country for free everything, they will keep coming.  93% of asylum applications are bogus and dismissed and now millions since fake president, career criminal Joe Biden, was unlawfully sworn into office, those asylum seekers are being given court dates as far off as 2030 or longer.  Think they’ll show up?

Never let a good crisis go to waste.  This is the same CRAP Ronald Reagan signed off on and it must be crushed.  What a load of propaganda.  They aren’t undocumented immigrants.  They’re illegal aliens who have no right to be on U.S. soil regardless of country of origin.

Congresswoman Salazar Introduces Dignity Act – “The Utah Compact on Immigration, first adopted by Utah’s government and business leaders in 2010, established 5 pillars of focus for immigration policy: Federal Solutions, Law Enforcement, Families, Economy, and a Free Society. While I have been in Congress, I have used the Utah Compact to guide me in developing and voting on immigration policy. In line with these values, I am proud to support the DIGNITY Act, which addresses all 5 of these pillars,” said Congressman John Curtis (UT-03).

“Like the Compact, the DIGNITY Act balances the need for a secure and working border with compassionate policies that keep families together, ensures employers have access to a reliable foreign workers, and welcomes people into our society and communities. Fair immigration policy is the Utah way and I am proud to be an original cosponsor and supporter of this important bill to provide certainty to Dreamers, reform asylum laws and procedures, provide a path to redemption for those who have contributed to our society for decades, and overhaul our broken immigration system consistent with Utah’s values.”

“One only has to look at our southern border right now to know that illegal immigration has reached a crisis point in this country. Since coming to Congress, reforming our broken system has been one of my top priorities—particularly by ensuring we have a workable guestworker program for our agriculture industry,” said Congressman Dan Newhouse (WA-04).

“This legislation builds off of those efforts, recognizes the contributions of immigrants, strengthens our national security, and bolsters our local economies and small businesses. I am proud to join Rep. Salazar in introducing the Dignity Act, a comprehensive proposal to finally fix our broken immigration system.”  It’s also pushing multiculturalism which DOES NOT WORK IN A WESTERN CULTURE LIKE THE U.S.  That’s not racist, it’s proven over time to be absolutely true.  Look at the cultural destruction in Europe for which leaders were forewarned and didn’t listen.  Now they regret their stupid, foolish decisions regarding multiculturalism.

That bill was introduced back in Feb. 2022.  Dignity my arse and will NOT stop the hordes from flooding across our border.  It REWARDS those who violated OUR immigration laws to steal jobs and drain our country of resources – just like Reagan’s “the mother of all immigration reform bills”.  The massive invasion really ramped up as soon as China’s _itch, Joe Biden, was unlawfully sworn into office.  This isn’t about dignity it’s about the security of OUR country, our values, our traditions and OUR existing immigration laws.

DemonRat Salazar along with RINO’s reintroduced her bill in May 2023 and is pushing hard for it now.  Let me remind Salazar what one of the dirtiest, corrupt former U.S. senators said about her BS:  A BILL: STOP ALL PUBLIC WELFARE IN ANY FORM FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS, Aug. 24, 2014, my column.  One of the top Democrats in the Senate now deceased:

“Our Federal Wallet Stretched To Limit By Illegal Aliens Getting Welfare’ “Even worse, Americans have seen heinous crimes committed by individuals who are here illegally.” – Senator Dirty Harry Reid, Democratic/Communist Party USA. He also said that the U.S. open door policy is being abused at the expense of honest, working citizens. August 5, 1993, Dirty Harry’s office issued the following:

“In response to increased terrorism and abuse of social programs by aliens, Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) Today introduced the first and only comprehensive immigration reform bill in Congress. Currently, an alien living illegally in the United States often pays no taxes but receives unemployment, welfare, free medical care and other federal benefits. Recent terrorist acts, including the World Trade Center bombing, have underscored the need to keep violent criminals out of the country.

“Our borders have overflowed with illegal immigrants placing tremendous burdens on our criminal justice system, schools and social programs. The Immigration and Naturalization Service needs the ability to step up enforcement. Our federal wallet is stretched to the limit by illegal aliens getting welfare, food stamps, medical care, and other benefits often without paying any taxes.”

“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.”

“Reid’s 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. One section I want to highlight: 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.”

Dirty Harry was speaking about the legal fiction called ‘anchor babies’ something I have been very vocal about: States Must Fight Legal Fiction Called Anchor Babies. Judge Jeanine ‘Illegally Entering U.S. Is Not a Right to Citizenship‘ – She is on point and says it like it is: “I draw but one conclusion: Barack Obama is intentionally using the immigration crisis as an excuse to change the demographics and ultimately the electorate of this nation.” Illegals tell filmmakers: we were told to vote democrat, or be deported: “Livingston wrote that, prior to the 2012 presidential election, “the illegals were handed voter registrations and told they would be sent to states with NO ID check for voting.”

“Of course, that puffed up peacock has changed his tune: Harry Reid: The Border is Secure, Now We Need Illegal Alien Amnesty – July 15, 2014: “Ladies and gentlemen, an idiot.”

Back in 2006 & 2007 I attended huge rallies by ILLEGAL aliens at the state capitol in Sacramento, CA and LA.  At that time and for years the prostitute MSM barfed up 11 MILLION illegals currently in the US. It was 3 MILLION in 1986 when Reagan signed his open the border “reform bill”.

Hogwash.  By the time Trump was elected the first time, it was a conservative estimate of 30 MILLION illegals.  Now nearly 8 years later and roughly 6.8 MILLION more since Biden soiled OUR White House, the numbers are astronomical.  They come to steal from you, me, our children and grandchildren.

Not enough housing everyone is complaining.  How many houses and apartments are being rented by millions of illegal aliens in this country?

Americans are NOT aware of how serious a problem we have with water supply – especially in drought states like California – big ag belt.  How much water do you think 35-40 MILLION illegals use everyday for showers, baths, laundry, cooking, watering a yard?

Schools being invaded with millions of children who have no right to be on U.S. soil vacuuming up district school resources.  School districts screaming they don’t have enough money so our property taxes keep going up.  Illegals are a HUGE reason.

Drugs by the tons killing children and teens.  Border Patrol Union: ‘Here’s a Shocking Bit of News for the Uninformed’, Jan. 10, 2024  – “The entire picture would scare the hell out of you America.”  Here’s how we’re getting SCREWED in Texas.  Just wait until it hits your city AND IT WILL – Denver Hospital In Financial Crisis: Surge of Illegals Contributes to $130M in “Uncompensated Care”, Jan. 18, 2024

The Price of Open Borders, Sept. 28, 2023 – “In the 2021 Texas State budget, nearly $3 billion was allocated for a variety of border security-specific purposes. Now, the new budget passed earlier this year allocates more than $5.1 billion for border security efforts. All because Joe Biden refuses to protect America’s border here at home.

“There are other costs and illegal immigrant magnets as well:  The cost of medical expenses for illegal immigrants and their children was roughly $1.2 billion in Texas last year.  “Crime committed by illegal immigrants cost Texas taxpayers more than $1.7 billion in 2022, according to research by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

“The burden put on Texas taxpayers for public education of illegals in the 2022-2023 school year exceeded $6.6 billion.  “Welfare services obtained by illegals reach over $172 million.

“Plus, despite two decades of republican control of the State Legislature, Texas still provides in-state tuition for illegals at our institutions of higher education such as at Texas A&M University and the University of Texas in Austin.  (TX AG Ken Paxton: PLYLER v. DOE, 457 U.S. 202 Must be Overturned, Oct. 2, 2023, mine)

“More recently, even Governor Abbott’s busing program, where tax dollars are used to transport, via bus, thousands of illegals deeper into the country, is adding to the costs. While this program might help to temporarily relieve some of the pressure on Texas’ border towns, it provides a strong incentive for illegals, knowing there is a good chance they can receive free, easy transportation farther north.”

“For Texas, because of the simple nature of the issue, it is difficult to gauge precise, total costs to taxpayers. According to an analysis by the Huffines Liberty Foundation, the total cost to support illegal aliens to Texas taxpayers is more than $10 billion. Add in the roughly $2.5 billion that the State spends on border security efforts each fiscal year, the total cost quickly approaches $13 billion per year.”

I voted for Huffines against Abbott in the last gubernational primary race.  Of course, he lost because of misplaced blind and undeserving loyalty to Abbott.  So, of course, come Nov., I had to vote for Abbott to keep another Marxist Democrat loon from winning.

MILLIONS of new illegals (who knows how many were/are ‘get aways’) are KILLING our health care system.  Coming here diseased with TB and a long list of medical problems getting “free” health care while you struggle to pay your health care premiums which keep going up.  Can’t get an appointment for weeks when you need one now because illegal aliens are clogging up our health care system (and courts) while stealing the fruits of your labor to reward them.

Cheap labor at the cost of a paycheck for a natural born or naturalized citizen – supported by a hell of a lot of Republicans with a financial stake.  They Died for “Cheap” Labor, mine, April 3, 2006 (Some of the links are now dead) “It’s just a matter of time and if you think I’m full of it, watch this flash presentation from the web site Wehategringos.com. You can also find the list of traitorous counterfeit U.S. Senators who have sold us out here.

“You watch these racist Mexicans with their faces and heads covered and you’re looking at the same pictures we see in the Middle East of terrorists. Look at these Mexicans grabbing their crotches, flipping us the bird, shouting “death to the rednecks, ” “up your f**ing ass, kill the gringos” and wishing “Bin Laden had dropped a hydrogen bomb on the “Jewish sh**hole called Manhattan.” This WILL come to your city, town and neighborhood and if this doesn’t prompt you to demand the state militias get organized and ready, you live in dangerous denial.

“I had a number of e-mails from individuals trying to justify hiring illegals. This past weekend, that buffoon, Michael Bloomberg, Mayor of NYC, was quoted by UPI: “New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg says golf fairways would suffer if illegal immigrants were returned to their native country. “You and I are beneficiaries of these jobs,” Bloomberg told his WABC-AM radio co-host, John Gambling. “You and I both play golf; who takes care of the greens and the fairways in your golf course? Nobody wants to deport them, in the end, because people need them to take these jobs and do the things that nobody else is doing,” said Bloomberg.” How shameful.

Another big fat lie I’ve covered as have so many fair, sensible immigration web sites.  Americans did and do jobs but illegals are cheaper.  Cash under the table, no workman’s comp or payroll tax burdens for the employer.

If you possess a rational mind, you cannot justify what’s going on in America in 2024.  Up is down; down is up.  Crime is celebrated; law- abiding citizens are fools.  Shoplifting is cool; paying for your groceries is for suckers.  When a male pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.

Somehow, it’s un-American for the census to count how many citizens  are in America.  Joe Biden holds that 40 to 50 million illegal border jumpers possess the same rights as taxpaying citizens.  Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegal aliens voting in our elections are good.  It’s not okay to buy farmland in China, but China is buying up hundreds of thousands of acres in America.

It was cool for then Vice President Joe Biden to blackmail the president of Ukraine out of $1 billion, but it was an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquired about it in a phone call.

People who have never owned slaves should pay reparations to people who have never been slaves.  People who have never been to college should pay off the loans for people who borrowed money to go to college.  Illegal aliens with polio, leprosy and TB are welcome, but you better prove that your dog has been vaccinated for rabies.

Doctors and engineers from Europe who want to immigrate to the United States must go through a thorough vetting process for years, but any illiterate gangbangers, rapists, drug dealers and terrorists who jump our southern border are welcome.

Spending $5 billion for border security walls is too expensive, but spending $1.5 trillion for health care, food, schooling and housing for illegal aliens is warranted.  If you cheat to get into college, you can go to prison, but if cheat to get into our country, you get to go to college on taxpayers’ money.

Ironically, people who think there is no such thing as gender are demanding that we elect a female president.

When you look out across the world, you see socialist countries collapsing, but it seems like a great plan for America by the liberal left. Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, but other people are not held responsible for what they are doing now…i.e., $2 billion in damages in 2020 for riots and arson nationwide, $100,000,000,000.00 in shoplifting annually, 100,000 drug overdose deaths annually in the USA, but no plans to secure the borders where the drugs flow into the United States.

Criminals are caught and released to hurt more people but stopping them is bad because it’s a violation of their civil rights.  Jussie Smollet tried to create a race war in Chicago by hiring two black immigrants to beat him up and tie a noose around his neck, but is still out on bail because it’s racism that caused him to do it.

MSNBC host Joy Reid makes every white American a racist, but doesn’t mind cashing her annual $1.4 million salary paycheck.  Whoopi Goldberg, at $67 million in her bank account from her acting career, doesn’t mind trashing most of America for being racist, but doesn’t mind living in her multi-million dollar home.  It’s okay to teach Critical Race Theory that blames white people for every ill in America, but not okay for white people to have a White Caucus in Washington DC while the African-Americans enjoy their Black Caucus.   It’s not okay to have a Miss America pageant without Black contestants, but it’s okay to have a Miss Black America pageant with no White contestants allowed.  We can have an “All Black” television channel, but it would be racist to have and “All White” television channel.  We must accept BET…Black Entertainment Television, but it’s against the law to have WET…White  Entertainment Television.

It’s just fine to have drag queens entertaining grade schoolers in libraries, but unacceptable to have Christian groups espousing morals, standards and ethics.

It’s fine to allow 9.6 million border jumpers to invade our country in the past 37 months, but it’s not “fine” to deal with or solve our 500,000 American homeless citizens and veterans.

It’s not okay to call Covid 19 the “Chinese Virus” because it’s “racist” even though it was created in a Wuhan Virology Lab in China.

It’s okay to have DNA males penetrate women’s sports where they can beat the crap out of women in tennis, wrestling, boxing, swimming, volleyball, crew, track and other sporting events.  But it’s not fair for anyone to complain about it like ten time national swimming champ  Riley Gaines.  It’s okay for the leaders of the NCAA to allow this insanity, but it’s not okay for anyone with an ounce of common sense to question it.

Hamas killed 1,400 Jews on October 7, 2023.  They took 240 hostages!  When Israel retaliated, we’ve got tens of thousands of Muslims in America chanting for the eradication of Israel and extermination of all Jews.  Those Muslims fly Palestinian flags in our country. Whose idea was it to flood America with jihadist Muslims, the most violent religion on this planet?

We’ve had a black, gay Harvard President who plagiarized her doctoral thesis. She was elevated to the top of the Harvard leadership role, but was incompetent to serve based on fraud.  She then cried, “Racial bias.”  Go figure!

We are living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right.  Where moral is immoral, where immoral is moral, and good is evil and evil is good. It’s bad to execute murderers but it’s okay to kill unborn babies.

What America Needs To Be Doing With Common Sense!

1. With millions of illegals crossing our borders, we need to revoke the Asylum Bill.  They need to improve their own countries by their own actions.
2. We need to stop all illegal immigration by using our armed forces at the border to turn them back.  Arrest and deport all illegal aliens.
3. Severe prosecution and prison for shoplifters, drug dealers, arsonists, murders, M-13 gangbangers, car thieves and rapists. Just uphold the laws of our country. Put criminals in jail to return our country to law and order.
4. Stop all “DNA transgender men” from competing in women’s sports, PERIOD!
5. Promote Americans on the basis of their academics, achievements, abilities and talents rather than skin color or gender.  Diversity, Equity and Inclusion don’t work, won’t work, and never have worked.  You need to earn your job based on your skills and abilities.
6. Put Alzheimer’s patient and frail Joe Biden out to pasture with the 25^th Amendment.  He is feeble, frail, cognitively unfit and totally incapable of fulfilling the office of President of the United States. The mainstream media needs to quit hiding that fact.
7. Deport all Muslims who march for the eradication of Jews and Israel.
8. No health care, free food, housing or schooling for illegal aliens.
9. If you were never a slave in America, then stay in school, earn your academic credentials, and apply for thousands of jobs available to American citizens who read, write, and perform simple mathematics, and who are qualified.
10. If you are an illegal alien, you cannot vote or register for a driver’s license in America.  You are a criminal who should be deported 24/7.
11. Have internal border patrol, ICE officers sweep every company  in the USA looking for illegal aliens illegally working in America…and deport them.  Start in Maine and Washington State, and then, keep moving inward.  Fine the employers of illegal aliens at $2,000.00 per illegal and up to five years in prison. (U.S. Code 8, Section 1324. It’s the law.)
12. If you borrowed money for college, pay back your loan on your own dime, not the taxpayers’ dollar.

Does that make sense or does that make sense?!!!!!!

Your emotional angry responses nurture suffering in the world. However, if you stand firm and do not respond with emotion, you evince love, which removes the catalyst for further mischief.

If you have ever resented someone who turned out to be kind after all, you will understand this principle.

When confronted with real virtue, people feel uneasy. Your patient presence reminds them of the conscience they wish to forget. People may bend backwards to please, in order to confuse you as to their secret motive—try to outclass you with “goodness” to make you feel guilty.

They constantly test you, probing for the guilt of pride and judgment and the need to be glorified. This is a subtle game of manipulation. Careful! If you are truly saved by grace, you will not be toppled by praise or fall to rage.

When you react with anger, fear, guilt and pride, you provide those to whom you are reacting with a justification for what they are, and empower them to continue in their ways. If you applaud their “kindness,” you license them for more mischief.

You may do so to relieve the guilt you feel for having judged them, or because you have begun to enjoy their kingly treatment of you, never realizing that by your servitude they have conned you into the position of freeing them from the stigma of their guilt.

People will not repent of their cunning ways as long as you provide them with justification, either through being more wrong than they are, or through letting them manipulate you into approving what they are.

“Learn to stand up under cruelty without resentment… others will be glad you remained calm.”

Learn to stand up under cruelty without resentment. If you accomplish this, after the real stress has passed, your entire nature is strengthened by your experience and others will be glad that you remained calm.

But if you meet life with anger, jealousy, hate, hostility and hurt feelings, your guilt will grow through the years. Worsening, you become angry with yourself and your sickness.

Struggling to will yourself well adds error to error and inflames your suffering.

So dependent are you on outside stimulation that very often you can’t move a muscle until someone burns the toast. Resentment provides the drive in the form of a sense of rightness and a wicked strength.

The ego never wants to lose its reason for hostility for fear of losing a sense of worth and “success drive.” Unconsciously, you often seek a spouse to take the position formerly occupied by a parent.

You need someone to resent to get the energy to function and to feel right about what you became by resenting. It is a way of life that leads to illness and death.

The origin story of Star Wars characters Han Solo and Chewbacca is the focus of the 2018 science fiction film Solo: A Star Wars Story. Taking place about ten years before the events of the original Star Wars film of 1977, it describes how Han encounters Chewbacca in an Imperial jail, and they work together to escape. They are rescued by a gang of thieves working for a criminal organization called Crimson Dawn, who tasks them with smuggling a shipment of coaxium — fuel needed by starships to travel faster than light — from mines on Kessel, a planet near a cluster of black holes called the Maw.

Borrowing the starship Millennium Falcon from another smuggler named Lando Calrissian, Han, Chewbacca, and the rest of the team were able to acquire the coaxium and escape the planet, but at the cost of Lando’s valuable droid L3 (which contained precise and specific data for the ship to navigate the Maw), which was fatally damaged as they boarded the ship. An Imperial Star Destroyer, made aware of the theft, exited hyperspace, and dispatched several TIE fighters to pursue, disable, and recover the stolen coaxium.

In one of the most memorable scenes in the movie, Han sought to elude the Imperial ships by escaping through uncharted space away from Kessel through the Maw. To get through this dangerous region of space, the necessary navigation data was hastily salvaged from L3’s circuits before the machine finally “died” and was uploaded into the Millennium Falcon’s guidance system.

This data helped Han and Chewbacca pilot the ship to escape the TIE fighters, avoid crashing into large chunks of swirling debris, and guide their flight through the deep, disorienting darkness between the cluster of black holes and their strong gravitational forces threatening to tear the ship apart. Barely making it through the Maw to a stable area of space, the Millennium Falcon’s hyperdrive engines were ignited, and Han and the rest of the crew were able to safely continue on their way to deliver their cargo of coaxium.

Though David was not a smuggler on a hazardous mission, he did travel through some dark and dangerous times in his life. Unjustly forced to flee his home by King Saul, who was jealous of his success and popularity, David continually hid in the wilderness and moved about in various places as he was hunted as an outlaw by the king’s army.

Through it all, David sought God and trusted in Him to guide his steps and protect him from capture and death (Psalm 142). The Lord provided the necessary data he needed, even through the words of a prophet (1 Samuel 22:5), to help him know where to go and when, and even in the most dire of circumstances, He delivered him from those who sought his life (1 Samuel 23:19-26).

In gratitude and praise to God, David composed a song thanking the Lord for delivering him from the hands of all his enemies, even Saul who sought his destruction. The song included these words:

“For You light my lamp; the LORD my God illumines my darkness.” (Psalm 18:28)

While I have never been on the run for my life like David, I can relate to being in circumstances where guidance outside myself was needed to get me through a dark and potentially deadly place.

One year, my wife and I went on a road trip to visit family in Florida. We took Interstate 75 from Michigan through Ohio and Kentucky. By the time we reached Tennessee, the sun had already set. In the wee hours of the morning, we entered a stretch of highway in the mountains between Knoxville and Chattanooga, where the darkness was so great that it felt palpable. The illumination of the car lights seemed to go only a yard or two ahead on the steep, curving, and twisting road. I was very aware that one wrong move or turn could send us off the edge of the highway and end our story on earth.

There was nowhere to stop, and we knew we needed help navigating this dangerous path. I recalled how David remembered God’s power to see all, even in the darkest places, and trusted in Him for help:

“If I say, ‘Surely the darkness will overwhelm me, and the light around me will be night,’ even the darkness is not dark to You, and the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike to You.” (Psalm 139:11-12)

We prayed to the Lord to guide us safely through the disorienting darkness. God responded by granting us with His calm and peace. He provided me with the data I needed to know the right places and times to turn and brake the car to get us safely through the dark to a better-lit section of the Interstate. The Lord held the car — and us — together, and from there we safely continued our journey to Florida.

As we are drawn further into a period of time filled with increasing economic hardship, sharp divisions in society building to possible civil chaos and conflict, and overseas conflicts that could easily escalate into world war, it is not hard to feel that what is ahead is an unfamiliar, dark, and ominous path.

Those who trust in Jesus Christ not only receive forgiveness of all their sins and reconciliation with God, but they are also transferred from a dark domain into His kingdom of light (Colossians 1:9-14). No matter what challenging uncertainties or situations we may face, the Lord’s faithfulness never changes, and He promises never to leave us lost in the dark (Hebrews 13:5-8). Jesus, the Word of God, provides the data necessary for all who believe in Him to safely navigate the darkest places and make it home.

“I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness.” (John 12:46)

I believe “collective consciousness” was coined by psychologist Carl Jung.  It’s the concept that there’s a community consciousness of sorts.  (I’ve never really delved into it and don’t have an opinion one way or another.  The few things I’ve run across in the years seemed a bit out there to me, so I left them alone.)  Then there came the “100^th Monkey” from the 1950s…

The premise of the 100^th Monkey (in a nutshell) is a group of scientists in Japan were researching Macaque monkeys on various Japanese islands.  They would drop sweet potatoes on the beach for the monkeys.  On the island of Koshima they observed one monkey take a sweet potato to a fresh water lake and wash it.  One by one the other monkeys began doing the same.  The researchers noticed that after the hundredth monkey did it, that monkeys on other islands began doing it too, despite being detached and unable to observe or learn from the ones on Koshima.

It became known as the 100^th Monkey, and suggested that there was a collective consciousness.  It suggested that when so many of the monkeys had the same thoughts, that it created a type of community of thought, if you will, where the community no longer had to learn the behavior or thought pattern, that it was picked up even subconsciously.

I probably would have rejected this concept in the past, except that I learned about the 100^th monkey after some quantum physics studies.  I wrote a four part series on some of my (quantum) learning here.  (If there’s interest I can republish them here on NewsWithViews.  But they are kind of detailed with a lot of science and I didn’t know if there would be interest….  It’s probably my favorite series I’ve ever written.)

The gist of the notion is the human brain is a type of electric field (electromagnetic); it sends out a frequency (or frequencies).  The human body is a magnetic field of its own. (I wrote about that in the spring of 2020, because the implications of that alone bear a lot of weight on things like “viruses” and “pandemics”.)  The human body’s electro-magnetic field is a torus.  For brevity I can’t get into that right now.

I bring it up because the seat of consciousness is in the brain, which is an electromagnetic field.  The actual science exists that the frequencies emitted from a brain can be picked up by another brain – even subconsciously.  There’s a lot of places we could go with this, but it’s not the purpose of this article.

The suggestion of the 100^th Monkey is that there is a tipping point – a point that when so many have the same thought (that leads to behavior or action), it tips into those outside of the original bubble of influence, it spills over and others pick up the frequencies that have spilled over.

Of course it’s “just a theory” with some remarkable circumstantial evidence.  It could explain a “mob mentality” – where people engage in actions they would otherwise not do if alone but do when in a crowd engaged in such activity.

Now if we revisit the premise of Project Looking Glass (which I wrote about here) indicating there’s a point the world heads down a specific road and there’s nothing to change that outcome, (but it’s not the outcome the globalists want), it creates some questions with current events.  According to the whistleblower on Project Looking Glass, after inserting numerous scenarios to try to change the outcome, they learned the outcome was inevitable.  They learned the world was moving to a type of awakening rather than a dystopic globalist regime.

As a Christian, I don’t find that surprising.

I realize using math and science to substantiate faith is out of the comfort zone of a few Christians.  Yet the universe was created by a Divine Creator who used principles and laws for His Creation.  Those principles and laws can be found in math and science, if you stick with pure math and science and not the pseudo-science and math promoted in academia and globalist agendas.  (Research the origins of the American educational system to understand how far away from true education it is.  Here’s a good place to start.)

I know it’s trendy in Christendom Churchanity to predict and project an “Antichrist”, a great tribulation, a magical “rapture” and other Armageddon type scenarios.  (I used to do it myself.)  I know I’m going to anger a certain percentage of Christians just by saying that, and I’m sorry for that because I don’t want you to be so angry you can’t hear and research what I’m saying.  So if you could withhold your indignation long enough to entertain another possibility, I have some things to say.

The power tools of the adversary of God are deception and fear, and they often work tandem.

What we do in the construct of organized church Christianity, is teach principles and precepts of the religion as has been passed down to us.  If my own experiences are any indicator, questioning the established rhetoric is frowned upon and not at all encouraged.  You can’t even have an innocent, just trying to understand, question in some churches.  And if those principles and precepts are incomplete, or even worse, wrong, well you are generally put in a position of either dismissing your doubts and questions to stay in the good graces of the institution, or leaving and trying to find such truths apart from it.  Such is the same system in the world.

For example, the “Antichrist” figure is for the most part taught as some evil person coming from somewhere like Russia, or Iran, or somewhere in the Middle East, and sometimes it’s even a person coming from America.  And yet “antichrist” cannot be found anywhere in the book of Revelation.  When I point that out, people usually point me to Revelation 13.  There are two beasts in Revelation, and beasts are prophetic imagery for kingdoms or countries.  That’s not a person.

It matters not to most institutionalized Christians.  They don’t miss a beat as they continue to guess and project what new world leader is the “Antichrist”.  If I press them, they’ll pull from some pastor or teacher or apologist to justify why they must see the “Antichrist” as the beast in Revelation 13, coming to kill all the Christians – (as if error cannot be passed down).

Let’s change gears for a minute.

Do you remember the “Leave the World Behind” Netflix movie I referenced in my last article?  Did you know that people who work in video editing discovered there are four audio tracks in the video?  There are usually one.  In fact, there are never multiple audio tracks in a video – says people who have worked in the field for a number of years.  They found one of the tracks is specifically infrasonic frequencies (ELF).

The infrasonic track peaked at just a few places in the movie, places of extreme stress.  (I believe it was maximized at the scenes when the ship ran aground on the beach, and both times the piercing pitch was sent out for a full minute.)  Infrasonic frequency is known to disrupt sleep and to cause feelings of fear, dread and/or depression.

There are other theories as to why infrasonic frequencies were inserted into the movie, but I can’t cover those with brevity in this article.  For now let’s just evaluate why an Armageddon type movie could be inserting indiscernible frequencies in its movie at stress points when infrasonic frequencies are known to incite fear or dread (or worse).

Obviously there’s a desire to incite feelings of fear or dread.  It is, after all, a movie about cataclysmic events in America.  We could attempt to give some benefit of doubt by saying it was just theatrical effect (albeit it hasn’t been done like that before to current knowledge) to enhance the intended impact.

But….

What about predictive programming?  Predictive programming is the concept that they use media outlets (movies, music, literature, etc.) to predict what they want to do in the future.  They paint the outline, so to speak, and it fills in at a future time.  Examples would be Contagion for Covid-19, White Noise for the Palestine, OH chemical spill (ironically both produced by Netflix), “The Eyes of Darkness” by Dean Koontz for Covid-19, and any number of Simpsons or South Park episodes, etc.

The theory is they plant the idea in the head so that when the future produces the scenario the mind accepts its reality because it’s familiar.  Whether that’s true or not is subjective, but there are a lot of uncanny “coincidences” between media products and subsequent real events.

Let’s say the Leave the World Behind was an attempt at predictive programming.  It would mean, then, that there is a plan or objective to propel America into some sort of “attack”, whether it be foreign attack, cyber attack, economic attack, or a combination of things.  They elude to a breakdown of communication and a turning of neighbor against neighbor, almost a civil war type of thing at the onset of perceived external attack.  One is left, at the end of the movie, with the distinct impression everyone is for himself, and must wait “it” out.  Any semblance of victory, of unity, of push back against the unidentified attacker is absent.  Hmmm….

The Obamas producing the movie is enough to give a discerning mind pause.  The Obamas are the Manchurian candidates for deceiving Americans into accepting a veneer of political correctness sitting under a base of diabolical tyranny.  So if the puppets of deceit are producing a movie of the demise of America, what’s the motive?  I can assure you it is not pure entertainment.

I’m going to argue here that Klaus Schwab and Yuval Noah Harari and ilk don’t have their world globalist agenda buttoned up like they hoped they would.  Things aren’t going as swimmingly as they hoped, and the minions of the world are pushing back on their agendas.  German farmers, Dutch farmers, Canadian activists, even America seems done with Hollywood’s voices.  (If only we could show the sports ball enthusiasts they’re watching the same script Hollywood produces, just in different clothes.)

Bill Wood, whistle blower for Project Looking Glass, said it kind of like this:  Let’s say you’re watching a chess match between two Chess Masters, the two best.  And the one looks down at the board and realizes he’s in check mate in seven moves.  The only way he gets out of this is if his opponent makes a mistake.  He looks across at his opponent and realizes his opponent knows full well he has him in check mate in seven moves.  What can he do?  He can play out the next six moves any way he wants, the end will remain the same.  He can stall and try to delay the end.  He will make every attempt to take out his opponents moves, but it will all still be in vain.

I don’t know how to make you see this in 2500 words or less, so I’m going to spend a few future articles trying to break pieces down to help you see.  It’s not that there aren’t hard things ahead for us.  I’ve spent some time praying about 2024 and I know the Lord showed me there are some hard things in front of us.  BUT….  It’s the frantic six moves before checkmate.  They are desperate to try to swing the momentum back to get their globalist tyrannical utopia.  They will pull out all the stops to try to change the outcome, even though the outcome is already decided and they lose.

How long will those six moves take?  I don’t know.  A year?  Five years?  Ten?  Only God knows.

But I think the action of the key players is telling.  I think they’re panicked.  I think the movie was an attempt to paint a picture of defeat, and embed (with maybe some infrasonic frequency help) fear in the minds of the minions.  They need a collective consciousness of fear (and they will use deceit to create it).  They’re hoping they can create enough circumstances to produce enough fear for that tipping point to spill over into a collective consciousness that submits to their agenda through default of fear.

They are few and we are many.  They need the many in fear of the few.  They’ve deceived themselves (and others) that they will obtain their victory.  But it’s really not up to them.  They’re the pawns of God’s adversary, and while they think they’re calling the shots, they really aren’t.  I want to expound on the cosmic battle in the coming weeks, but it will take me some time to lay it all out.

Yes, the enemy has plans to bring destruction, and some of those moves he’s going to make will be painful.  We can navigate the battlefield with little loss if we know how to position ourselves.  I only have some of the pieces and understanding, but I will present all that I have.  In the meantime, have a listen to this.

Our country, our lives, and even our civilization are on the brink of destruction. And what are we doing about it?

Which problem is so dire?

What is the greatest threat to America?

Could it be:

• our Marxist-driven education system?
• our federal government handing out billions and trillions of $ to a U.S. puppet president (put into office by a coup staged by the Deep State) of a country, to fight a proxy war for the Deep State and Global Elite?
• the World Health Organization (WHO), an organ of the United Nations (UN), is being used to take control over all people in all countries in the world (not all have signed on, but the few that haven’t are small and considered insignificant in the whole scheme of things)?
• the drive to “Sustainable Development”, another scheme to wrest both our individual and national sovereignty?
• Bill Gates, Black Rock, China, and others are buying up our farm and ranch lands, our single-family homes, and businesses – which take us closer to owning nothing but our thoughts, in other words, making us slaves,
• Our federal, democratic republic government has been torn apart and reassembled to be a uni-party, top-down, supposedly democratic socialist tyranny?

No! The greatest threat is unbridled illegal immigration.

I’m not addressing any of those or the innumerable other attacks on our liberty. I’m talking about one of the weapons that has been used for decades to literally destroy Western Civilization – unbridled, illegal immigration – being used in the asymmetrical warfare that is overwhelming the Western governments of the world today.

What is happening today is not new. It has been going on in many places in the world for decades. When I was in Cologne, Germany, in the early ‘70s, I had a conversation with a local couple who were very unhappy with the Turks that had been brought in for much-needed labor. The gist was that the Turks did not have the same values as the natives and were not impelled to comply with German laws and mores, but weren‘t about to leave when their work was finished. And, in France in the ‘80s and ‘90s, there were areas in Paris where non-Muslim people could go at their own risk. It has not stopped, but it has gotten worse. In fact, many Parisians live in those areas – and watch as their homes and vehicles are burned. And they, themselves, are threatened or attacked for entering their own neighborhoods.

And, remember this? The left-wing French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo’s editor Stephane Charbonnier known as Charb, and another four cartoonists were called out by name and murdered, along with three other editorial staff and a guest attending the meeting. Before the killers left, twelve people were murdered.

“Witnesses said they had heard the gunmen shouting, “We have avenged the Prophet Muhammad” and “God is Great” in Arabic while calling out the names of the journalists.”[1]

There were other connected attacks (that ended with a huge police operation and two sieges in and around Paris over the next three days. The Charlie attackers were Islamist brothers Said and Cherif Kouachi. “Cherif, who also went by the name Abu Issen, had been part of the “Buttes-Chaumont network” that helped send would-be jihadists to fight for al-Qaeda in Iraq after the US-UK invasion in 2003.”[2]

As it began, If we thought about it at all, most of us thought that it was just an unintended outcome of bringing in laborers from other cultures. Back in the ‘60s, ’70s, ’80s, it would have taken a brilliant visionary to see that these actions were the product of the conniving minds of the globalists – from Cecil Rhodes to Rockefeller, Carnegie, the British Royal Family to Kissinger, Maurice Strong, Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, Noah Harari, the pope, and too many others – all scheming to grab control of the world. It doesn’t help to realize that if they succeed, they will then go after each other next.

Here in the U.S., it isn’t laborers being brought in; it is illegal men of soldier age and physique. Brought in by the hundreds and thousands at a time.

What matters is if we allow them to succeed.

This is our country, a country built upon Western culture which was shaped by Judeo-Christian concepts, including individual rights, personal sovereignty, equal treatment, and the Rule of Law. The United States of America was the only country set up to fully protect those rights. Our country was founded on Judeo-Christian beliefs – moral absolutes. These values were what allowed those who came here for a fresh start to build their futures upon freedom and justice, government by the consent of the people, equal treatment, and personal autonomy – i.e., self-governed.

The founders understood that we needed to have these values, attitudes, and beliefs to remain a cohesive, thriving, country. But it didn’t take long for those who would foment disorder in order to wrest control, to begin debasing those vital attributes that built this country. All the points I questioned above are just a small portion of the asymmetrical warfare being used against us. All lead to one end: the end of the United States and the end of Western Culture.

As we are trying to take our country back, many yet have no idea we are under attack. Most who understand the broader picture have no idea where to begin. People are only recently realizing that the ultimate goal is to rid the world of those of us believing in moral absolutes; that right and wrong exist. Many have been too badgered to accept moral relativism, where there is no good or bad, no right or wrong. And they don’t realize that this is the key to everything we are dealing with today. It is between having a civilized world or a world run by ten rulers, and the rest of us are useless eaters, cannon fodder, or slaves.

A book written in 1973 by Frenchman Jean Raspail addresses the ultimate battleground in this war against civilization. Camp of the Saints, reviled by many,[3] hits full on the pivotal issue – how do we protect Western Culture after we open the door to those whose sole purpose in life is to destroy it. In his foreword, Raspail sums up his book:

In the night, on our country’s Mediterranean coast, a hundred dilapidated ships run aground, loaded with a million emigrants. Poor folds stalked by misery, whole families with wives and children, swarms coming from the south of our world, drawn by the Promised Land. They yearn. They have the strength of numbers. They’re the subject of our self-reproach and of the mushy angelism of our consciences. They are the Other, that is to say the Multitude, the Multitude’s vanguard. And now that they’re here, are we going to take them into our home, into France, ‘land of asylum and welcome,’ at the risk of encouraging the launching other fleets of unfortunates who are getting ready, out there? It’s the West, in its entirety, that finds itself threatened. Threatened with submersion. But, what to do? Send them back home, but how? Pen them up in camps, behind barbed wire? Not very pretty, and then what? Use strength against weakness? Send our sailors and soldiers at them? Fire? Fire into the crowd? Who would follow orders like that? At all levels – universal conscience, governments, comity of civilizations, and above all each in himself – we ask ourselves these questions but too late….”

Saints is a book that could have been written about today. It describes the culture that almost perfectly depicts the West today: “Day by day, month by month, doubt by doubt, law and order became fascism; education constraint; work, alienation; revolution, mere sport; leisure, a privilege of class; marijuana, a harmless weed; family, a stifling hothouse; affluence, oppression; success, a social disease; sex, an innocent pastime; youth, a permanent tribunal; maturity, the new senility; discipline, an attack on personality.”[4]

Julien Rose, writer at Global Research, asks a key question, “What holds mankind back from confronting the forces determined to destroy it?”[5] That is a key question for America today. And that is what The Camp of the Saints addresses. But in Saints, the enemy is not out to destroy the civilization of France, the people just need a safe place to land. They are being persecuted in their own country, India, and the European country, Belgium, that had been welcoming some in now said they were full up. Here in America, the reason behind the calamitous illegal immigration is to destroy our culture – which would take down the rest of Western Civilization.

Camp of the Saints is a hard book to read, but Raspail has spelled out the dangers of a culture that does not fit with the one our forefathers spent a great portion of their time trying to give us something that would work and last. We didn’t preserve it, so we are now faced with people who are out to rid the world of the best government the world has ever seen. Many tried to expose what was coming at us, but they were silenced by those power elite who already had gained much control over the key governments in the world, while most citizens were blind to any of the deceit, corruption, and even murder that was furthering us down the road to Marxist technocracy.

Early U.S. history shows that immigrants were welcomed to help settle the open lands to the west. In the early 1900s, the “Great Wave” brought in 24 million immigrants, but WWI reduced immigration to almost nothing. After that, the federal government set up quotas favoring immigrants from Northwestern Europe – those with values like those that built the United States.

Immigration policies didn’t change much until the 1940s when laborers from Mexico were allowed to come for temporary farm work under the Bracero Program.[6] In the ‘60s, in order to draw skilled workers, visas were opened to Latin America and Asia – the first move away from nationalities who were raised under Judeo/Christian values and beliefs. Also by the 1970s, over a million immigrants were coming in each year, tripling the previous years.

In the late ‘70s Senator S.I. Hayakawa could read the writing on the wall and tried to put a sabot into the gears. On August 13, 1982, Sen. S.I. Hayakawa of California introduced an amendment to immigration legislation (S. 2222) in support of English as the official language of the United States.[7]

Hayakawa’s amendment stated:
It is the sense of the Congress that-
(1) the English language is the official language of the United States, and
(2) no language other than the English language is recognized as the official language of the United States.

He noted, “Language is a unifying instrument which binds people together. When people speak one language they become as one, they become a society.

“But there are more recent political lessons to be drawn on the subject of language when you think that right here in this U.S. Senate and the Congress, we have descendants of speakers of at least 250 to 350 languages. If you go back to the grandparents of just the Members of Congress, you have speakers of, I would say, at least 350 languages. But we meet here as speakers of one language. We may disagree when we argue, but at least we understand each other when we argue. Because we can argue with each other, we can also come to agreements, and we can create societies. That is how societies work.

“Take in contrast to this the situation in, for example, Belgium, where a small country is sharply divided because half of the population speaks French and the other half Flemish. Those who speak Flemish do not like the people who speak French and those who speak French do not want to speak Flemish.

… “Think of the recent history of India. Between 1957 and 1968, something like 1 million were killed in what were essentially language riots. They were riots about other things as well, about cultural difference, but essentially those cultural difference could not be resolved because there were a hundred languages dividing those people. So they could not understand each other and they could not come to the resolutions we arrive at daily in a Chamber like this or in the House of Representatives.

“So, Mr. President, the fact that we have a common language, one language, is one of the most important things we have tying us together. Now we live in a time of unprecedented immigration. Not only speakers of Spanish, but speakers of Cantonese, speakers of Thai, speakers of Vietnamese, speakers of a variety of European languages, speakers of Mandarin – they are coming from all over the world and joining us in our society.

“From the Philippines, we have speakers of Tagalog and other Filipino languages. Somehow or other, within a generation or two, we have to get them all together, talking to each other, electing each other to city councils, doing business with each other, buying and selling from each other, creating governments, creating societies. We can only have this unified society if we ultimately agree on a common language (emphasis mine)….

“If you think of the culture that we have, you think, as I said a little earlier, of the melding of cultures right here in Congress. You look at the lineup of any American professional baseball team or football team. You see all foreign names there, all English-speaking, all managing to get along, and you see what a miracle this is. The wonderful thing about the United States is that kind of cultural intermixing, that cultural melding, is possible.

“When you go to other parts of the world, you find to your amazement that China is full of Chinese; that Russia is full of Russians and practically nobody else. Italy is full of Italians and Korea is full of Koreans, and so on around the world. But we are full of people from all parts of the world having learned one language and ultimately having learned to get along with each other to create institutions of a multiracial, multicultural democratic society.”

Other people also were reading the writing on the wall, some even before Hayakawa: Senators Joseph McCarthy, Representatives B. Carroll Reese, and Edward Cox, Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, even Ayn Rand.

As noted above, our immigration policy was developed to bring in those who would work, readily assimilate into our society – those who wanted to be Americans. They had no desire to change America to reflect the values from which they had fled. Had we continued that policy, I wouldn’t be writing this now; people wouldn’t be burning buildings down and murdering people and be considered heroes for doing it. Underneath all that, as noted by the Center for Immigration Studies, “…little consideration seems to have been given to what this level of immigration means for taxpayers, schools, hospitals, American workers, national security, to say nothing of the rule of law or our ability to assimilate so many newcomers”.[8]

It took well over 100 years for the machinations of the global elite to bring us to this state of affairs. In that time, just about everything our Forefathers labored over to give us the best government in history was corrupted beyond recognition by truly evil people who set up the United Nations to be the control center until they achieved control of the world – and put us into technocratic slavery.

America is one of the most culturally diverse nations in the world; we have taken immigrants from every corner of the earth. As we welcomed them in, and as they came to take advantage of the freest country, both welcomers and the welcomed understood that what made America so great and free is our values, attitudes, and beliefs. To keep America great, we must keep those same values. People coming in can worship as they choose, associate with whomever they want, and live their lives, but they are expected to accept our values – that is what drew them here in the first place.

But those coming across our borders today are being indoctrinated into woke speak: The Biden administration’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is instructing Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents to ask immigrants they encounter for their “preferred pronouns” and to use gender-neutral language while on the job.

The agency goes on to demand that Customs and Border Patrol agents do not use “‘he, him,’ ‘she her’ pronouns until you have more information about, or provided by, the individual.” CBP agents are also instructed to not use words like “Mr,” “Mrs,” “sir” or “ma’am.”[9]

A far more nefarious activity is going on at our borders; illegal aliens, male, of military age, and strong are coming across by the hundreds and even thousands. The “silent invasion,” is being committed primarily by single, military age men between the ages of 17 and 45 who are illegally entering the U.S. They’re wearing camouflage and carrying backpacks, according to video captured by cameras placed throughout the county viewed by The Center Square. Many are armed and dangerous, committing robberies and engaging in shootouts with law enforcement.”[10]

“Since Biden took office in early 2021, the Customs and Border Protection Agency (CBP) has ‘encountered’ almost 8 million border crossers, the majority young military age males. In August alone, that number was 232,972, an annualized rate of 3 million migrants a year.”[11]

Now, if you add the tens of thousands of guns that are being supplied to the IRS, one could wonder if those guns might(?) end up in the hands of those able-bodied illegals coming in. We do know that it is our Deep State and others in the government who are aiding and abetting the overwhelming masses coming through our borders.

Not only are they going after our culture, but the idea is to help reduce the population at the same time.

The people are waking up, but when you go visit your representatives in government, their response is most often something like, “Uh, that’s the first I’ve ever heard of this. Let me look into it.” As if they aren’t in it either by choice, bribery, blackmail, or threats.

It is time to take our governments back, starting at the local level and working up. We can do it; we come from great stock.

You have probably heard about the scandal involving anti-Trump prosecutor Fani Willis and her well-paid lawyer lover/boyfriend. Their bizarre romantic and financial relationship may sink her case against Trump. If so, she will be replaced, and the case will go on.

But having a lover on the payroll is not the real problem that taints the prosecutions against Trump, and it’s not the most important case.

Consider anti-Trump Special Counsel Jack Smith and his wife, Katy Chevigny. She is a financial backer of Biden who also did a sympathetic “documentary” on Michelle Obama. This conflict of interest hasn’t stopped Smith and sympathetic judges appointed by President Barack Hussein Obama from trying to tie Trump up in court over issues like possession of presidential documents and questioning the efforts by Democratic Party politicians to rig the results of the 2020 presidential election through illegal mail-in voting schemes.

But the real story is not Katy Chevigny but her parents, and that is what my new special report is all about.

I am pleased to present this new 12-page special report, “The Communists, Globalists, Terrorists and Fellow Travelers Trying to Jail President Trump.” Click here to read this new report.

Chevigny’s parents were well-connected to the communist and terrorist movements that backed Barack Hussein Obama and are now trying to destroy Trump.

Her father Paul was a leftist lawyer associated with the communist-front National Lawyers Guild who tried to put the New York Police Department’s “Red Squad” out of business.  Her mother Bell was a mentor to convicted and incarcerated terrorists.

Trump was a successful businessman before he became president but he was not a Ronald Reagan, who fought the communists in Hollywood and understood their tactics and strategies when he entered the Oval Office. As a businessman in New York, Trump had to deal with corrupt politicians and the mob. A novice in Washington, he didn’t understand how the forces of international communism, led by China and Russia, would work to replace him with Democrat Joe Biden. These enemies used members of the U.S. “intelligence community” to accomplish this objective, giving rise to the term “Deep State.”

To understand what they are trying to do to Trump, consider the fate of the man who put the mob out of business, former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a Trump confidant. He is now being put out of business by the same forces trying to destroy Trump. These include corrupt politicians and the communists.

They have forced Giuliani into bankruptcy. They are trying to do the same to Trump. Trump can survive financially. But for Trump and the United States, the stakes are higher than that.

Whether you like Trump or not, what is being done to him through the “American” justice system is un-American. That is why, in my opinion, Americans of all political persuasions must understand the stakes and rally to his side.

To understand Trump’s threat to a United Nations-dominated “New World Order,” consider how the correlation of forces have changed since the days when Reagan was president. Reagan had himself commented on how the international communist movement had killed Democratic President John F. Kennedy. That marked a key turning point in the direction of the national Democratic Party, which then abandoned anti-communism and became a “progressive” movement.  The direction of the Democratic Party as an adjunct of the international communist movement was solidified under President Barack Hussein Obama, an agent of influence for Russia and China.

The mob operated like the communists, except the communists have international backing and have not been put out of business. They are flourishing in cities such as New York City and Washington, D.C.  Why and how did this happen?

I don’t claim in my new special report that Jack Smith’s wife Katy Chevigny is a red diaper baby. But you can come to your own conclusions about the influence her parents had, and what this “power couple” represents on the domestic and world stage.

I always suspected something sinister behind Jack Smith. We exposed the fact that Smith signed a “solemn declaration” to a United Nations-backed global tribunal and that he learned his legal tactics at the U.N.’s International Criminal Court.  Then we began examining his wife and her family.

As you know, before we were defunded and censored, we held National Press Club conferences and had 500 videos on YouTube. Yet, I still have the best resources in the country on the communist movement. I have been to “Revolution Books” and numerous communist conferences in New York City and Washington, D.C. over the years. I have recently covered the communist and “Free Gaza” protests in D.C. I know these people.

We have been busy trying to keep America’s Survival, Inc. going, as we enter the new year. Remember we do not get the grants from the “conservative” foundations. We must rely on people like you.

The early 2024 GOP primaries demonstrate the problem perfectly. I can sum up the problem in just three words, a “BIG TENT THEORY.” Years ago, the RNC (Republican National Committee) decided to change America’s pro-Constitution conservative party into a BIG TENT party allowing anti-Republican voters to participate in Republican Party primaries.

In the 2024 Iowa Caucuses a couple days ago, the stark example of the problem was in full view. Former President Donald Trump won the State Presidential Nomination by winning 98 of 99 counties with solid support from over 51% of the caucus votes across the state. Distant 3^rd place finisher, Nimrata Nikki Randhawa of India, won just one county by just one vote. The devil is in the details…

While Trump won across all demographics in 98 of 99 counties, Nimrata Nikki Randhawa won one county by one vote, where 50% of caucus voters in the county were democrats who changed party registration for caucus day, before changing registration back to democrat after the caucus. In other words, Nikki won that one county by one vote, thanks to democrat voters, not republican voters. Of course, her biggest campaign donors are all democrats, too.

The #1 Cause

Some State Parties allow anyone to vote in GOP primaries, anyone. Other States require Republican Party registration…but allow non-republican voters to leap back and forth between parties to select Republican candidates in the GOP primary, whom they will vote against in the general elections.

How can true Republicans get true Republican candidates while letting their political opposition to select GOP candidates in republican primaries, whom they will later vote against in the general elections? It’s impossible…maybe by intent.

NEW HAMPSHIRE POLLS

“The new poll shows Trump with a massive 61%-34% lead over Haley among registered Republicans, with Haley topping Trump 44%-38% among independents.”

By independents, they mean democrats. A majority of registered independent voters are former registered democrats and the past voting trends of the group confirm it. According to recent polling data from December 2023, 40% of US voters are now registered independent, while 29% are still registered democrat, 28% republican.

As demonstrated in Iowa and now the current New Hampshire polls, if only republicans voted in republican primaries, solid conservatives would be nominated by wide margins in every primary contest. But when everyone is allowed to vote in republican primaries, the outcome is quite different.

Registered independents are now the largest voting bloc of the three. However, even though they register as independent, their voting trends are not independent at all. The vast majority still vote either republican or democrat in every election, especially in elections concerning federal public offices.

“While the former president holds a commanding 6%-18% lead over his former U.N. ambassador among self-described conservatives, Haley leads 56%-27% among those who consider themselves moderate or liberal.” SOURCE

The #2 Cause

If you got mad and left your home because you don’t like how the maid and gardener had taken care of your property, your property would soon belong to your maid and gardener. The same is true of political parties.

When Cause #1 allowed democrats and independents to pick republican candidates, real conservatives got mad that the conservative principles and values of their party were being undermined from within their own party, their political home. So, they left that home in the hands of the people who were undermining those principles and values, taking independent status.

When conservatives got mad and left their party, they didn’t stop voting republican in general elections. They just took themselves out of any leadership in the party, and stopped funding the party, in both cases, leaving the party headed for the ash heap of history. Meanwhile, the democrat party becomes ever more powerful and tyrannical via global Marxist influence and funding from Nazi groups like Klaus Schwab’s WEF and the more than 200 Soros NGO’s.

Between these two primary causes, it’s the people themselves who have turned the once conservative republican party into today’s feckless RINO party or allowed it to happen.

The only way to reverse the fatal trend is to reverse these practices. There is no other way.

To turn the Republican Party back into a conservative party, leave independent status and rejoin the party. Not to go-along to get-along, but to flood the party with real conservative republican voters and take back control.

Fail to do so at your own demise…and everyone else’s.

Hand Counting Ballots in 2024 Will be Ours!

Everybody knows that the 2020 election was an even bigger win for America, than was 2016. Of course, 2020 wasn’t allowed to happen. Since then, the speed of our country’s destruction has been turned up, by those who had to cheat to get power. We know that, as well. We are NOT frogs who will be boiled alive, however, because the water started out uncomfortably hot. Look at what happened in Trump’s first term. Turning up the heat has only energized us, and broadened our base.

What I want to share today, is just how that is all coming down. – the obvious and the not so. AND, what we can do about it. It’s not just the disintegration of our Constitution, the Executive Orders and votes coming out of the swamp. Or that lawfare has replaced law enforcement. It is the “representatives” that we have placed in office that are at the bottom of it all. Not a shocking statement. But, stay tuned…

There are three levels of governance in America. Federal, state, and local. You know that, and you know where you have power. Do not be distracted by the bright shiny object of a national presidential election. There is much more going on, a lot closer to home and our control. Keeping an eye on DC is necessary, of course.. There are several good sites for doing so and for checking on who is voting with whom, on a continuum from Constitutional to Communist. Might be that this is unnecessary for you, but, give me a moment to share…

The bi-weekly magazine, The New American, published by the John Birch Society (JBS), can help you with that. It has just released its latest Freedom Index, which scores our US Congressional “representatives” by how they vote in Congress, basically pro-or con- our Constitutional law. The Freedom Index is a valuable tool.

Image by Ronnie Macdonald

Many of you already have a favorite scoring site, like Conservative Review’s Liberty Score, with which to keep an eye on who is voting for what. Personally, I prefer JBS’s ratings, as they seem to be more current and strict. And, I’m BIG on our Constitution. Without it, we are a third-world banana republic.

Check in to either one, but do remember these DC creatures are farthest from our grasp. The ones we can affect, are closer to home.

The Marxist disintegration of America is everywhere today. You don’t need me or the JBS or anyone else to tell you that. Families, churches, schools and whole cities are becoming unrecognizable. You know what you see. You can feel it all around you. You can literally smell America rotting.

Here’s what we must do to work effectively against that. Get familiar with every local official you have. Judges, school board members, even people on the water authority board and the dog-catcher (excuse me, “animal control”). While you’re watching the votes of our national “representatives”, get to know the authorities in your town, because there is real damage being done in LOCAL elections, and that is harder to spot. The enemy is among us. I am NOT exaggerating.

Look what Hillary did to most of the country since 2017…and you thought she LOST the election. Right?

Did you know that 629 young socialists/communists are holding office today, in 47 of our 50 states? This has happened since 2019. Give that time to sink in.

On the very day of Trump’s inauguration in 2017 Hillary’s started up an organization called “Run for Something” It’s mission was to solicit, train and fund young socialists to run for LOCAL offices in every state. The bitter loser wasted no time in self-pity, although I’m sure her cocktail hours were sometimes days long , and by 2019, they had candidates on ballots. By 2022, they had 629 of them elected to local office. The little commies were even targeted to beat old incumbent Democrats, who weren’t far enough to the left. This was their revenge for our having elected Trump.

Here are the states, with the most little Karls and Karlettas (Marx family progeny) holding office: PA(50); CA (48); NY (44); TX (38); MA (30); CO (27); MI (24); NH (24); IL (23); OH (23); MN (23); VA (22); FL (21); IN (21); NC (19); GA (17); KS (16); AZ(16); MO (15); WI (13); NV (9); RI (9); TN (8); WA (8); DE (7); CT (6); IA (6); ME (6); NB (6); OK (6); KY (5); SC (5); AR (4); MD (4); MT (4); NM (4); HI (3); OR (3); MS (2); VT (2); WV (2); AK (1); AL (1); LA (1); ND (1); UT (1); WY (1)

Did you even know who they were when you saw them on the balot?

There are the states targeted for leftist takeover. If you live in one of the states with 1, 2, or 3 little Marxists in power, you are either part of a very astute electorate, or your state is just not on the menu for now.

These kids hold office from dogcatcher to State legislator, and everything in between. Judgships are very popular. Daddy George Soros. taught them well. The damage is being felt, especially where they are judges.

Getting hand-counting of ballots approved across the country is our revenge, for 2020. That is our goal, and we MUST reach it.

Hillary’s RFS, shows how setting a goal and sticking to it can have pretty amazing results: 629 new young Commies in governance in 47 states. They were focused on the prize. Their “prize” is darkness. Ours would be freedom.

What if we got 47 states to count the 2024 ballots by hand?? Wow.

Let me repeat. As of the latest figures, updated (2022) in RFS online, there have been over 629 young commies elected to office in key states. Think this has something to do with the change we’re feeling? I don’t know if these kids were voted in, fair and square, but that’s not the point. They were placed on the ballot and advertised heavily by a group with a very anti-American mission, and hardly anyone noticed.

Think the country wouldn’t feel the fresh air of integrity if we got hand counts to happen all over the country? We can fix a LOT with just that one simple thing.

Run For Something is only one organization – yes, funded in part by our old nemesis, Soros – but it is very organized, and VERY intent on its mission. Think of how much just these few hundred Marxist-trained kids from RFS have marked their states since being in office – and “marking” is an act of possession…just ask a Kat. . .or, just ask a Texan, about one RFS graduate, Judge Lina Hidalgo.

The Left never stops; that is why they so dangerous. They are committed to radical social change, and they give it their all. One volunteer in the Obama ground game for 2012 reelection, said something I will never forget. “We didn’t just show up, we interrupted our lives.” Boom! THAT is the secret to their growth. That is what WE must do as well. WE are committed to freedom. Aren’t we?? What a much better goal than tyranny. We can never stop. We MUST interrupt our lives.

‘NO AD’ subscription for CDM! Sign up here and support real investigative journalism and help save the republic!‘

You and yours CAN make a difference. Interrupt your lives. At the moment, you can’t do anything about the commies already holding office, but you CAN help us to have the hand-count revenge for the steal of 2020. Please spend as much of every single day as you possibly can, before the next general election, working toward getting your state to approve the hand counting of ballots, even in parallel to machines. Make phone calls, meet with legislators, grow a large group that will convince them. Then do it again. Make the group larger. Push. Demand direct answers, and if they fall short, put that out for all to see.

We will be lucky to be able to HAVE an election in 2024. You can help to increase the chances by organizing and spotlighting our strength and focus. Interrupt your lives.

Come on…get off the couch and out the door. We have a country to save, and if we lose our free and fair elections, we lose it all. After 2024, it won’t matter… If you choose to give up, you will have the opportunity to explain to your grandchildren that you didn’t secure their futures, and why. So, really there IS no choice.

WE MUST INTERRUPT OUR LIVES. I want this phrase ringing in your ears the way it has mine, since I read that. “We didn’t just show up, we interrupted out lives .”

If we cannot be as effective as they can be, we will not have lives worth living. Ask any Venezuelan…

I have faith in Americans, though. More and more are watching the skies darken, and feeling the power of the oncoming storm. It is never too late to wake up. Until it is.

How do you think our country’s rank and file workers will survive those 9,000,000 (million) illegal aliens who will scramble for jobs once they receive amnesty from Joe Biden?

It’s called, “Screwing the American Worker with Foreign Labor.”

Writer Neil Munro said, “Since at least 1990, the federal government has relied on Extraction Migration to grow the economy after allowing investors to move the high-wage manufacturing sector to lower-wage countries.

“The migration policy extracts vast amounts of human resources from needy countries. The additional workers, consumers, and renters push up stock values by shrinking Americans’ wages, subsidizing low-productivity companies, boosting rents, and spiking real estate prices.

“The economic policy has pushed many native-born Americans out of careers in a wide variety of business sectors, reduced native-born Americans’ productivity and political clout, reduced high-tech innovation, and allowed government officials to ignore the rising death rate of poor Americans.

“The policy also sucks jobs and wealth from heartland states by subsidizing coastal investors and government agencies with a flood of low-wage workers, high-occupancy renters, and government-aided consumers.”

Our own companies across America would rather cut our throats than hire American workers for a fair and living wage.  For certain, minorities with low educational skills face planned poverty by the big wigs in those Washington DC offices.  In many ways, capitalism must be the cruelest of systems when it comes to cut-throat competition.  The men in those big office windows overlooking Manhattan don’t really care about the misery in Chicago, Detroit, Denver or any other city with millions of homeless.  That’s right! We now have another 8,000,000 homeless aliens in our midst.

As long as those big wigs have bodies to do the work, the big guns don’t care where the labor originates.

But they face some really steep problems because even in my City of Denver, Colorado, we now have 37,500 illegals who can’t write, read, spell, or comprehend English.  They are useless to themselves, to our city, and totally useless to America.  The big guns didn’t figure on that one. Those illegal aliens pile up on the sidewalks, in busses, on city trains and in schools. So much for our Governor Polis, Mayor Johnston, and both U.S. Senators for being open borders and sanctuary city advocates! They are completely and totally incompetent!

So, what is Biden’s endgame? Who is paying him off? How did his handlers come to the point where they figured America no longer needed borders?

Did you see the news where tuberculosis cases have entered America  and dozens  of cases are manifesting in cities from Chicago to New York?  Do you know that TB causes 2,000,000 deaths annually around the world?  How many of us will die from TB brought across our borders?    Will those numbers rank up there with the 100,000 drug overdose deaths annually from Biden’s inviting drug cartels to distribute all those drugs to our youth?

Do you understand and appreciate that NONE of the illegals are checked for diseases?  Whose bright idea was that?  We know it wasn’t Biden because he can’t put two sentences together without a teleprompter.  He cannot think beyond the moment because he’s clearly suffering from Stage 1 or Stage 2 of Alzheimer’s Disease.

Isn’t it astounding that his wife knows his condition, but won’t say anything?  Isn’t it further amazing that his inner circle knows he is beyond cognitive incapacity?  Isn’t it stunning that the mainstream media refuse to call for a cognitive test in order to discover whether he is fit to lead this country?

At what point will this “extraction migration” syndrome begin to wear down, tear down and burn down our entire economic system?  At what point will these millions of illegals tear apart our entire fabric of American society?

This year, 2024, may prove to be the most ridiculous, the most stupid, the most insane, the most violent and the most dangerous moment in U.S. history.  Why?  Because a whole lot of liberals have taken leave of their minds to support a man in the White House who is clearly not all there in his own mind.

January 18, 2024

Many of you may not be aware, but I run a ministry.  I started Pass The Salt in 2002 after being sued by the ACLU for praying with our High school Football teams.  I left my teaching job to start a ministry that confronted the culture.  We have been pounding knots on the Devil’s head ever since.

The decade of the 2020’s has been nothing like the American people have ever experienced.  In fact, it has overwhelmed the sleepy church as the assault upon Christianity in American has reached a fever pitch.  2024 is going to be a season where more evil is going to be exposed.  That is what we have been doing on the front lines in America since the birthing of PASS THE SALT.  The Satanists have launched an all-out assault against the advancement of the Gospel of the Kingdom.  We are in a Spiritual war that is manifesting in the natural realm.  Things are about to get real.

If you have followed the J6 event you certainly understand that CHRISTIAN men are under assault by our Government.  Hundreds of them are in the DC Gulag WITHOUT A TRIAL OR THE OPPORTUNITY TO POST BAIL!  Let me put a face on some of the persecuted.

Isaac Yoder

We have known Isaac for over 20 years, thanks to our Operation Save America days and Isaac was recently booked in to Federal Prison for simply standing up for what is right on Jan.6, 2021 in Washington DC. Our ministry had over 100 people in attendance that day and experienced one of the greatest false flags in World History where the infiltration of dark forces into a peaceful gathering into a false “insurrection” orchestrated by our own government.  Isaac was sentenced to 1 YEAR in Federal Prison for doing nothing more than dressing as a patriot and fighting for our nation.  We actively pray for and financially support his wife and 3 children during this wicked incarceration.

Pastor Bill Dunfee

Our dear friend and Patriot Pastor Bill Dunfee from Warsaw, Ohio will be on trial in DC the week of Jan 22 for doing nothing more than standing in front of the US Capitol on Jan 6 and preaching the Gospel to those in attendance.  The Constitution guarantees the right to “peaceably assemble to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” Pastor Bill did not go in the Capitol nor did he encourage anyone else to do so but rather addressed our need to “reclaim our government of, by, and for the people.”  There were millions of people in DC that day to simply PETITION the government and for that Pastor Bill is facing 20 years in prison for leading an “insurrection.”  The weapons we all wielded that day were SPIRITUAL and not ONE PERSON HAS BEEN CHARGED WITH CARRYING A WEAPON.  Bill’s weapons were the Bible, and a bullhorn!  Please pray him and his family.

Stand With the 10

On Jan 16, eleven brave Christians will stand trial in Nashville for their heroic efforts at the Abortion Mill in an attempt to rescue women and children from the curse and scourge of abortion.  They were charged with a FEDERAL FACE indictment and will stand trial, facing decades in prison for laying down their lives for the innocent ones.  Chet Gallagher, Cal Zastrow, Coleman Boyd, Caroline Davis, Paul Vaughn, Dennis Green, Eva Edl, Eva Zastrow, James Zastrow, and Paul Place have been ordered to appear before the federal Court.  These are all friends of ours and of the ministry and they covet your support!!  Even though abortion has been ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL by SCOTUS the Biden’ administration’s hatred of Christian activists continues unabated.  These are indeed perilous times. PLEASE JOIN US AS WE APPEAL TO HEAVEN FOR JUSTICE.

Christians Have Become the Enemy

My wife Michele and I can honestly say that “there, but for the Grace of God, go I” as we watch our friends and faithful soldiers of the cross be persecuted for their faith.  IT HAS BECOME DANGEROUS TO BE AN ACTIVE CHRISTIAN in this once great Christian nation.  The very future of our children and grandchildren hangs in the balance.  We appreciate your continued support as we endeavor to leave an inheritance to our Children’s Children.  Now, more than ever, is the time to STAND and FIGHT.  The battle is raging and the war is real!!

May God Be Glorified through our lives.  LET’S MAKE CHRISTIANITY GREAT AGAIN!!

Please subscribe to our email list for the latest updates on the Boots on the Ground initiatives that we have launched.  NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO RETREAT!!

Just before bed-time the other night, around 11 p.m., all our lights went out—zap, just like that. Power outage. If it hadn’t been snowing, it would’ve been too dark to find my flashlight.

“Beep! Beep! Carbon monoxide alert! Beep!” That was the alarm in our foyer. I didn’t know how to make it stop. Eventually it stopped of its own accord.

By and by I called the police, hoping for some information. The dispatcher didn’t want to hear it. “That’s Public Service Electric & Gas, their problem—nothing to do with us.” So much for the police knowing what’s going on within a few blocks of their station.

Midnight. Call PSE&G. I’m holding the flashlight in one hand, a note with the telephone number on it in the other, and trying to dial the number: a juggling act, very difficult. I dialed, and got this:

“Hello! Welcome to The Hot Line, where hot and sexy women are waiting to talk to you!” I cried out: “What???” My wife thought it quite funny. Ha, ha. I dialed again and this time I got the PSE&G robot. They’re working on it. Do I want a something-or-other ticket? “No, no! I don’t know what that is. I just want the flamin’ lights back on!” They’re working on it.

At 1 a.m. I put on my coat and went outside to see if any progress was being made, anywhere. Toward the south, two blocks from where I stood, downtown Metuchen was lit up like the Fourth of July. You could read legal notices by it. Who the devil was shopping at one in the morning?

So I went north, into the darkness, homing in on some distant lights flashing on and off. A few blocks down, through the slush, I found four or five PSE&G trucks parked along the street, including two with cherry-pickers. But! No one was in the trucks. Where were the repair crew? I finally found a van with a driver in it, napping. He told me they’re working on it. That was all he knew.

I hiked back home. We lit candles. My wife has an oxygen generator; it doesn’t work without electricity: something to worry about. She fell asleep on the couch. I thought I’d better stay up, but by 3 a.m. I was nodding over the candles and it struck me as a dangerous position. I had to go to bed. I blew out the candles, left the flashlight for my wife in case she woke up, and plodded up to bed, assisted only by a very small penlight. Couldn’t stay awake, had to go to bed. By and by I could hear men and machines working in the street.

Our power came back on around five in the morning. By then the bedroom was uncomfortably cold, but I got out of bed to make sure my wife had her oxygen. Once that was taken care of, I went back to bed and somehow wangled a few hours’ sleep.

The point of all this is, things don’t seem to be working as they should. It doesn’t take much to screw up modern life.

We need to do better than this.

Anti-Semitism is a noxious weed that should be cut out. It has no place in America. —William Howard Taft

The Palestinian Authority is ruled by Hamas, an organization committed to vehement anti-Semitism, the glorification of terror, and the total destruction of Israel. —Ehud Olmert

We want to live. Our neighbors want us dead. It leaves not much room for compromise.  —Prime Minister Golda Meir

I recently met with a gentleman who wanted to speak about Israel and the Jews.  He made some statements to me that immediately stirred my ire.  I told him I wasn’t interested in discussing what he had to say.  A few days later, I received an email from him with links he told me I must read.  What he sent, I’ve seen countless times before and it is the same filth perpetrated by those who hate Israel and her people.

It was disappointing that a man of his prestige would fall prey to believing the lies and libel against the Jewish people.  The articles he sent me are filled with the same filth I’ve heard time and again from those who blame the Jews for every world catastrophe.

Here is what I wrote back to him…

The Unz website is run by anti-Semites and Max Egan is just another one of them.  I would discard anything Egan says regarding the Jewish people or Israel. Their hatred is satanically inspired.

The USS Liberty

The USS Liberty is a good way to use the Jews as the enemy, isn’t it!?  One should look closer at who our president was and what he was actually up to with his desire for a regime change in Egypt.  There is a far deeper story than what the antisemites spew, but their goal is hatred for the Jews and their God-given state, so they use at their convenience.  Look at LBJ.  A long time ago, one of the ship’s officers told my grandfather the truth.  My grandfather died in 1985; he was Army Cavalry in both WWI and WWII, and in charge of the MPs at Nuremburg.

The USS Liberty is another Jewish libel just as is 9/11, just like the libel that the Jews killed Jesus. (John 10:18) “No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.”

911 and the Twin Towers

There is far more involved in 9/11 and it has nothing to do with the Jewish State of Israel, but dig deep enough and you would see who was behind it.  USA’s intel should look in the mirror.  Shortly after September 11, 2001, false rumors began to circulate claiming that 4,000 Jews, or 4,000 Israelis, had failed to report for work at the World Trade Center on 9/11, supposedly because they had been warned to stay away by Israeli secret services, Shin Bet, Mossad, etc., which were allegedly responsible for the attack. The claim is totally false.

Jews inside the towers died with others.  This was an urban legend that swept the Arab world. Not a single fact in it has ever been substantiated. It appears to be based on concern expressed by the Israeli government for the fate of 4,000 Israeli residents in New York, a small number of whom worked at the World Trade Centre.  There were Jewish people in the towers and they perished along with others.  The false story was promoted by the mainstream Arab press as well as on neo-Nazi and white supremacist websites based in America.  Link

Like the JFK assassination, there are speculations and theories, and the government has never given us the details and probably never will.  Did Oswald kill Kennedy?  In most people’s minds, it is doubtful. Probably a patsy, but then there’s Ruby and he conveniently died of cancer.  Read Dr. Mary’s Monkey by Ed Haslam. In a lab at Tulane University, scientists and physicians were allegedly working on developing an instant cancer killer to rid Cuba of Castro.  (Dr. Mary was working in that lab to find a vaccine that would eliminate Simian Virus 40 (SV40) from the human body.  SV40 was in the polio vaccines and sugar cubes and causes soft tissue cancers that is genetically passed to offspring. Link  Dr. Mary’s murder was never solved.)

The same goes for 9/11; we all know something was rotten.  Building 7 alone gives us that, and what was in Bldg. 7?  And do we really know all the perps?  We might think we do, but what was everything revealed?  The same goes for the perpetrators of the Murrah Bldg. and countless other government coverups.  We know Mohammed Atta and his fellow terrorists were fully involved, but where was American intel, and why didn’t they notice what was transpiring long before 9/11?

The Ashkenazi Jews

As to the issue of the conspiracy of the Ashkenazi Jews, it is another antisemitic libel that is widely believed, even by some Jewish people. However, if proper research is judiciously executed, the proof is obvious.  It is another blasphemous attack against the Jewish people.

Academics and even some Israelis believe that Ashkenazi Jews are descendants of Khazars. It has been totally disproven.

The two largest denominations within Judaism are Sephardim and Ashkenazim.  The latter arrived in the Danube Valley and Rhineland area after the Roman exile about 321 AD.

Some call these historical events into question.

A hypothesis dating back to the late 1800s, states that Ashkenazi Jews are all descendants of the Khazars.  In 600 AD, in southeast Russia, a multi-ethnic conglomerate of Turkic people founded a powerful state made up of people from many different ethnicities.  It was the kingdom of Khazaria.  The theory goes that in the 8^th century the Khazar ruling class converted en masse to Judaism on the instruction of their ruler.  So, according to this line of reasoning, these Jews didn’t migrate from Jerusalem and Babylonia into France and Germany, but migrated from modern Russia and Ukraine.

The lack of proof for this theory hasn’t prevented it from catching on with a number of geneticists, historians, linguists and lay people.  It even has support from academics in universities in Tel Aviv and Sheffield, England.

The problem is that the kingdom of Khazaria was destroyed sometime in the late first millennium and the next time we have records of Jews in that area, today’s western Ukraine and Belarus, is over 400 years later.  Additionally, DNA tests have shown a close relationship between Ashkenazi and Sephardic Jews as well as the connection to other Middle Eastern people, but no connection between the Ashkenazi Jews and Khazars.

The Khazar theory is also dead on-arrival from a linguistic perspective.  The main language of the Ashkenazi Jews, Yiddish, shows no trace of Turkic origin.  Yiddish is considered a Germanic language with Hebrew and Aramaic words thrown in.  As the English linguist and author, Alexander Beider put it, “The personal names and surnames born by Jews in Eastern Europe during the last six centuries, as well as the Yiddish language as a whole, does not contain any link to Khazaria.”

So…who is promoting this theory?

Certain academics for one.  Their hypothesis got a big bump in 1976 when a writer and amateur anthropologist named Arthur Koestler, published the now debunked book, “The Thirteenth Tribe”.  Koestler thought that by proving Ashkenazi Jews were actually more European than Semitic, he would upend the foundations of European anti-Semitism.  Ironically, Koestler’s claims only served to feed anti-Semitism by accidentally resurrecting a theory that would only go on to serve the interests of bigots and the uninformed.

After its publication, supporters expounded upon his claims even further, while detractors called it anti-Semitic.  But why would the hypothesis be anti-Semitic instead of just another scholarly theory?  It makes more sense when you look at some of the recent supporters of the theory, especially those outside of academia.  These include online commentators who use it to delegitimize the Jewish people by classifying them as a “fake nation,” and even political leaders like the Palestinian Authority leader, Mahmoud Abbas.  It is just another lie in their quiver of arrows stoking the hatred for Israel and her people.

In a 2018 speech delivered to the Palestinian Liberation Organization’s legislative body, Abbas quoted Koestler and his theory that Ashkenazi Jews are descended from the Khazars, not the Biblical Israelites.  The allure of the hypothesis to someone like Abbas is clear.  It delegitimizes Jewish claims on the Land of Israel.

If Ashkenazim came from what is now Russia, then their assertions of an ancestral nationhood in the ancient land of Israel are easily dismissed.  Too bad for Abbas that the science is not on his side and that the genetic findings of Ashkenazi Jews point to people of Middle Eastern origin, not Turkic or Russian.  It is also worth stating that the theory, and the subsequent “not your land” accusations thrown at Jews, completely discounts Sephardi and other Jewish communities, and makes it seem as if Ashkenazim, and Ashkenazim alone, are the only Jews, which is of course, preposterous.

It is not a stretch to say that throughout the centuries, anti-Semitic, xenophobic, and racist tropes have followed a similar path, unfounded ideas that gain a foothold because they serve the interests of anti-religious bigotry, claims of genetic superiority, and political ostracism.

Ashkenazi Jews are definitely Jews, despite any debunked hypothesis that claim otherwise.

Evil Exists

And yes, like every other ethnic background, there are evil Jewish people, just as there are evil Asians, Italians, Irish, Germans, Swedes, Greeks, Brits, Africans, etc. ad nauseam.  And no, I’m not fond of Schumer, Nadler, Schiff and the rest of the Stalinist Democrats, but there are plenty of gentile Republicans who are equally as deceptive and evil. Soros takes a leap ahead as he cast himself as a gentile in Nazi Hungary and led the SS to his fellow Jews in hiding.

Evil exists in Israel’s own government, just as it does in the government of America.  The Deep State seeks to destroy the freedom inherent in both countries and they’re doing a good job of it.

The article by Guy Milliere, Who Wants to Destroy Israel? You Might Be Surprised, and the video by Caroline Glick, explain the treachery and deception within the Israeli intelligence community resulting in what occurred on October 7^th.  Despite the female IDF soldiers who monitor the computers for intel, every warning was ignored by IDF hierarchy resulting in the savage and barbaric October 7^th attack by Hamas. Caroline’s video is essential in understanding the Israeli Deep State.  We have seen the same thing in America time and again.

But…

How is it that Israel has survived throughout history when so many other peoples have perished, despite having larger populations than those of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob?  Because the Lord certainly has His hand on them.  The story of Hosea is the story of Israel, God’s wife.  Hosea 2:7 tells us, “And she shall follow after her lovers, but she shall not overtake them; and she shall seek them, but shall not find them: then shall she say, I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.”

There are 8 covenants in the Bible, five of which are to Israel.  The Abrahamic Covenant is unconditional and is not yet completed.  It doesn’t matter what happens between now and the millennial kingdom, the Abrahamic Covenant is forever.  It starts in Genesis 12:1-3 “Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee: and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

Throughout history this has been true.  Nations who have gone against Israel or her people have been cursed by God.  Look at Spain and Germany today.  And, we know that all the families of the earth are blessed, not only because of the brilliant inventions they’ve given us, but because our Jewish Messiah is from the Tribe of Judah.

God’s Word states that two-thirds of Israel will perish in the tribulation, but there will be one-third left.  Israel will call for Messiah to save them the last three days of the tribulation.  (Zechariah 12 and 13) As a nation, they will plead for Him to come.  The Jewish Messiah slaughters the armies of the antichrist and saves His people, Israel.

Satan knows the Bible better than most Christians and from the beginning of his fall, he knew that if he could kill the Jews, he could live and rule and reign on earth forever, but we know he will not succeed.  From the beginning, he has tried to kill them, and he loves it when people believe the anti-Semitic tripe because they play into his plans.

We are to love our Jewish brethren.  The New Testament book of Romans tells us three times in the first two chapters, “To the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”  In Romans 9:13 it says, “As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.”

In Isaiah 49:16 the Lord states, “Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.”

If the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob has Israel carved into the palms of His Hands, those who stand against His people will never receive the blessings promised in Genesis 12:1-3.

“For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.” -Mathew 7:29

Isn’t it something how the American church has portrayed Christ to the world?

We see pictures of Christ, statues of Christ, stained-glass windows of Christ as an effeminate, bloodless weakling hanging on a cross that they have named Jesus.

The pulpits in America have portrayed Jesus as somehow or another walking around with pink booties on spanking sheep on the back side, all the while telling the world that everything is alright.

Nothing could be further from scriptural truth.  It’s offensive to say the least.  This is a created image of the modern-day heretical church.

In Matthew 16:14-16 Jesus asked His disciples,

“Who do men say that I am?”

In response they said, “Some say that thou
art John the Baptist: some, Elias;
and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.”

Have the children of the apostates taken the time to read this portion of the Word of God?  Apparently not.

They said that Jesus was like that of John the Baptist.  John not only forecasted the coming of the Lamb of God, the Savior of men (John 1:29), but was also responsible for confronting the corrupt king for all of his evils (Luke 3:19).

They said that Jesus was like that of Elijah.

Elias or Elijah was the prophet that confronted the wicked King Ahab, Jezebel and the false prophets on top of Mount Carmel.

When speaking to the people, he told them, “How long will you falter between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him” (1 King 18:21).

After Elijah mocked the false prophets (1 Kings 18: 25-27), the fire fell (vs 38) and they were all killed (1 Kings 18:40).

They said that Jesus was like that of Jeremiah.

The Lord said of Jeremiah, “See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant” (Jeremiah 1:10).

Jeremiah was sent to the gate of the children of Israel, as well as that of the king in order to testify against them because of their offenses before the Lord (Jeremiah 17:19).

As The Devil Mocks!

Scripture admonishes us to “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion…” (1 Peter 5:8).

Notice that this Scripture above tells us that the devil is “as a roaring lion.”  The children of apostates have taken on an insulting correlation, a disparaging simile, as counterfeiting and impersonating the Christ in misrepresenting Him, in putting the devil in the place of Christ as the Lion.  No wonder why we have so many women in the church today that do nothing but talk about, and chase devils, preaching his doom. How do they do this?  By focusing more on the devil and magnifying him more than Christ Himself.

Now, we can all see as to whom the children of the apostates have given ear to, and it is not the scriptural Jesus.  No, they are representing another Jesus, not the Jesus of the Bible, a Jesus that looks and reflects the one that they serve.  No wonder why the enemies of Christ are so encouraged.

In scripturally representing the Jesus of the Bible, I am here to tell you that Jesus is THE LION!

“…the Lion of the tribe of Judah…” –Revelation 5:5

This is the same Jesus who casts out devils with His Word (Matthew 8:16), the same Jesus that gives His friends power over all the power of the devil (Luke 10:19).

It’s the same Jesus who said of Himself in John 11:25 that He is the “resurrection and the life.”

He is the same Jesus who blew Lazarus out of the grave after 4 days being dead (John 11:38-44).

This is also that same Jesus who showed His zeal for His Father’s house…

“And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers’ money, and overthrew the tables;” (John 2:15)

This is that same Jesus, my King, who said of Himself:

“Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.” –Matthew 10:34

This Is He Who Spoke Boldly

“For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.” -Matthew 7:29

Firsthand eye and ear witnesses said of Jesus:

“And they were astonished at his doctrine: for His word was with power.” -Acts 4:32

No, the children of the apostates have not properly represented Him who the winds and the sea obey.

“But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!” -Matthew 8:27

What do we find here?  The Jesus found in the Bible is an offense to the one that the American church has created.

Ironically, Hamas’s gruesome attack on Israeli civilians on October 7^th, instead of unleashing a flood of criticism of jihadist Muslims, has turned up the fire under the apparently ever-simmering cauldron of anti-Semitism.

Everyone seems focused on the Jews—even obsessed with them. But the loudest voices are those raised in condemnation of the Israelis, their supporters, and worldwide Jewry.

There are a number of tropes that Jew haters dredge up on such occasions: the debunked but widely disseminated Russian psy-op pamphlet The Protocols of the Elders of Zion; the Jews as Christ-killers; the popular trope that the Jews “own the banks;” claims they’re out to control the world as “Greater Israel;” claims they’re Satanists; and the old blood libel, that they make Passover matzahs from the blood of gentile children.

THE KHAZARIAN MAFIA HOAX

But I’d be remiss if I left out one of the more recent libels: that of the Khazarian Mafia—which turns out to be a clever remix of “the Jews own the banks,” “the Jews are out to control the world” and “the Jews are evil Satanists,” rolled into one.

This bizarre theory claims that 90% of the world’s Jewry, the Ashkenazi Jews, are not really Jews at all, but “Khazars” from some ancient kingdom whose people were supposedly forced to convert to Judaism—although throughout history it was the Jews who were forced to convert to other religions.

The evil genius of the Khazar myth is that its proponents get to have their cake and eat it too: They can claim they aren’t anti-Semites, as they don’t hate Jews, only the “fake Jews,” i.e. the Khazars—which frees them to dredge up all the old libels against the Jews and simply attribute them to the “Khazars”.

A couple of problems with that, other than the obvious chicanery: DNA studies have shown there’s generally at least an 80% match between Sephardic and Ashkenazi Jews; there’s no cultural or linguist trace of Khazardom among European Jewry; and no sign of Turkic language, songs, or traditions.

A study by Dr. Harry Ostrer and co-author Martin Richards from 2013

came to this conclusion after examining mitochondrial DNA of Ashkenazi Jews:

Virtually none came from the North Caucasus, located along the border between Europe and Asia between the Black and Caspian seas.

The finding should thoroughly debunk one of the most questionable, but still tenacious, hypotheses: that most Ashkenazi Jews can trace their roots to the mysterious Khazar Kingdom that flourished during the ninth century in the region between the Byzantine Empire and the Persian Empire.

An Amazon reviewer of John Entine’s book Abraham’s Children: Race, Identity, and the DNA of the Chosen People, writes, “DNA analysis has served to put to rest the crackpot theory that Ashkenazic Jews were all descended from Khazarian converts, an idea especially popular with leftists according to the author.”

Surprisingly, even Wikipedia gets this one mostly right:

The Y chromosome of most Ashkenazi and Sephardi Jews contains mutations that are common among Middle Eastern peoples, but uncommon in the general European population, according to a study of haplotypes of the Y chromosome by Michael Hammer, Harry Ostrer and others, published in 2000.[29] According to Hammer et al. this suggests that the paternal lineages of Ashkenazi Jews could be traced mostly to the Middle East.

Hammer et al. add that “Diaspora Jews from Europe, Northwest Africa, and the Near East resemble each other more closely than they resemble their non-Jewish neighbors.”

And here’s the skivvy from Stanford Medicine’s Scope Magazine, excerpted from Bruce Goldman’s 2013 article: New genetic study: More evidence for modern Ashkenazi Jews’ ancient Hebrew patrimony:

Plausible at the time, the Khazar-origin premise has crumbled under the onslaught of modern molecular genetics. The latest volley: a study published this week in Nature Communications. The study’s senior author, Stanford geneticist Peter Underhill, PhD, works in the lab of  Carlos Bustamante, PhD, whose high-resolution techniques have highlighted the historical hopscotch of other migratory peoples.

Underhill, Bustamante and their co-authors analyzed the Y chromosome – a piece of the human genome invariably handed down father-to-son – of a set of Ashkenazi men claiming descent from Levi,  the founder of one of the Twelve Tribes of Israel. (Names such as Levy, Levine and Levitt, for example, bespeak a Levite heritage.)

If Ashkenazis were the spawn of Khazar royals, their DNA would show it. But those Y chromosomes were as Levantine as a levant sandwich. The same genetic “signature” popped up on every Levite sampled (as well as a significant number of non-Levite Ashkenazis), strongly implying descent from a single common ancestor who lived in the Fertile Crescent between 1,500 and 2,500 years ago. That signature is absent in the Y chromosomes of modern European non-Jewish men, and in male inhabitants of what was once Khazaria.

It’s also telling that the only video I’d found online exposing the conspiratorial “Khazarian Mafia” psy-op has been censored, whereas there are numerous posts with titles like these: The Hidden History of the Incredibly Evil Khazarian Mafia, Khazarian Mafia’s Globalist NWO Agenda to Destroy Every Nation’s Sovereignty, A Brief History of the Rothschild Khazarian Mafia, etc.

As a side note: According to the Khazarian hoax, Hitler made a big mistake. Someone should have told him that the 6 million Jews he exterminated were…wait for it…not really Jews!

THE ACTUAL ROLE OF THE JEWS IN HISTORY

I’ll return to the “Christ-killer” charge shortly, but first let’s consider a few things one can reasonably blame the Jews for: one being Monotheism, another being the Bible—both the Old Testament and the New. Another being the moral code established in the Ten Commandments that has served as the cornerstone of Western Civilization.

Said another way, without those selfsame Jews so roundly denounced, hated, and not infrequently massacred throughout history, there would be no Bible, no Judaism, no Jesus, no Christianity, and no Western Civilization.

There’s a reason we have the phrase “the Judeo-Christian tradition.”  It’s the foundation of the West and all the first-world nations, including the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States.  Especially in America, we have the Jews and the Bible to thank for our experimental government based on what Thomas Jefferson inscribed in the Declaration of Independence as our God-given rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  And these rights are “endowed by their Creator”—i.e. God, as revealed in the Bible—not Gaia, not Buddha, and most emphatically, not Allah.

Moses with the Tablets of the Law, oil on canvas, by Rembrandt Van Rijn

THE CHARGE AGAINST THE JEWS AS “CHRIST-KILLERS”

Returning to the “Christ-killers” accusation: In fact, it was the Romans—with their barbarously excruciating and deadly punishment of crucifixion—who killed Jesus.  But yes, the Sanhedrin, the Jewish leadership at that time, did seek it.  So let’s parse that.

First and foremost, the Sanhedrin didn’t speak for all the Jews.  We know this for a fact from the New Testament and other historical records of the time.  Christ’s Disciples were…wait for it…Jews!  And they clearly disagreed with the Sanhedrin’s charges against Christ.

So when anyone accuses “the Jews” of being “Christ killers”, he means the Jewish government/leadership of the day.

Let me ask you a question: How many of us in America today agree with all of our government’s decisions?  How many oppose much of what our government decrees?  So why isn’t the charge against the Jews in the First Century made factually: “The Jewish leadership condemned Jesus by charging him with blasphemy, and of claiming to be King of the Jews,” rather than “the Jews killed Christ”?

One of the charges the Sanhedrin brought against Jesus was that of working on Shabbat, after Jesus famously healed people on the Sabbath.  Instead of saying “My bad! You’re right! I won’t do it again,” Jesus pointed out that healing is a loving and compassionate act and not the sort of “work” that should be subjected to that law.  This made the leadership see red.  They themselves were caught up in the lawyerly minutiae of do’s and don’ts Rabbis had enumerated in regards to this law, which Jesus openly challenged.  Furthermore, they’d likely not dare to disobey the law, and certainly, had they done so, would never argue that they answered to a higher power than the written law, i.e. the Torah.

So one can understand their reluctance to believe that this young Rabbi was actually acting on a higher moral authority than theirs, and than that of the Torah itself.  He would have seemed quite an upstart to them, so one can comprehend their fears as they saw that he was attracting a following.

We can debate the Jewish leaders’ motive for wanting Jesus’ death—they may well have believed he was an impostor who was committing blasphemy; they may have worried that he’d overturn the Torah—the Jewish law recorded in the first five books of the Bible—the law they were responsible for upholding. They may have feared losing their own power and position. Their decision may have had elements of all the above, though it’s doubtful they truly believed Jesus was the Messiah, because we can assume they’d know better than to mess with God’s will.

But did they mess with it—or did they help to fulfill it, regardless of their own intentions?  Recall Joseph’s message to his brothers who’d sold him into slavery, “But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good…”.

THE CHRISTIAN PARADOX

Speaking of God’s will, consider this: for the gift of salvation through belief in Christ to be offered, Jesus would have to first die as the ultimate Passover Lamb of God, taking on the sins of mankind while suffering on the Cross. Only then could he rise in a miraculous resurrection, defeating death itself in a prefiguring of salvation, and finally taking his place at the right hand of God in heaven.

What does this mean? It means that those who call the Jews “Christ-killers” are in effect blaming them for Jesus’ substitutionary death for sinners—i.e. human beings—as well as for his resurrection and offer of salvation to those who follow Him.

Put more simply: Christians and Jewish followers of Christ have the Jews to “blame” for their salvation!

Suppose the Sanhedrin leadership had said, “Free Jesus, and crucify the thief Barabbas instead!” What would have been the result? No sacrificial death of Jesus on the Cross means everyone carries his own sins on his back—the wages of sin being death. It means no salvation by grace through faith. It means no eternal life in heaven. Not to put too fine a point upon it, according to the New Testament, it means damnation.

In other words, from the Christian point of view, it was God’s plan all along that Jesus, the most famous Jewish Rabbi in history, suffer death on the Cross on Passover, as the Lamb of God who died for the sins of everyone else.

So before you “blame the Jews” for ancient and modern tropes that demonize the Lord’s chosen people, remember you’re simultaneously scourging them for their divinely appointed role of introducing God and the Bible to the world, fulfilling prophecy, and, as Christians and Messianic Jews believe, providing the world with the Messiah, whose birth we once again celebrated a mere three weeks ago.

By Paul Engel

January 16, 2024

• What happens when people use the judicial system not to redress a grievance, but to attack others?
• Does a person have standing to sue, even thou they suffered no harmed?
• What are the costs to others when people engage in such “law fare”?

One of the most common ways for an American to seek a redress for some grievance is to file a law suit. This has made the United States a very litigious society. I was not able to determine the number of lawsuits filed, but in 2023 there were more attorneys in the United States (1.33 million) than doctors (1.08 million). As you might imagine, it’s unlikely that all of these lawsuits are legitimate.

Take for examples the case of Acheson Hotels, LLC v. Laufer. In this case, Acheson Hotels claims that Deborah Laufer filed a lawsuit against them not because she was harmed by their hotel, but because she is an activist using the Americans with Disability Act to harass companies who do not advertise whether or not they have handicapped accessible rooms. While the Supreme Court found that the case was moot, both the facts of the case and the courts decision points to what appears to be a case of Ms. Laufer using lawsuits for both revenge and profit.

The fundamental question the Supreme Court was asked to decide in Acheson Hotels, LLC v. Laufer was standing. Did Ms. Laufer have standing to sue Acheson Hotels? The Free Legal Dictionary defines standing as:

Standing, sometimes referred to as standing to sue, is the name of the federal law doctrine that focuses on whether a prospective plaintiff can show that some personal legal interest has been invaded by the defendant. It is not enough that a person is merely interested as a member of the general public in the resolution of the dispute. The person must have a personal stake in the outcome of the controversy.

A person cannot sue simply because they see something wrong; they have to have a personal stake in the issue at hand. Which brings us to the opinion in this case.

Deborah Laufer has sued hundreds of hotels whose websites failed to state whether they have rooms accessible to the disabled. As the sheer number of lawsuits suggests, she does not focus her efforts on hotels where she has any thought of staying, much less booking a room. Instead, Laufer systematically searches the web to find hotels that fail to provide accessibility information and sues to force compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), 104 Stat. 327, 42 U. S. C. §12101. Ordinarily, the hotels settle her claims and pay her attorney’s fees, but some have resisted, arguing that Laufer is not injured by the absence of information about rooms she has no plans to reserve. Only plaintiffs who allege a concrete injury have standing to sue in federal court. Laufer, these hotels have argued, is suing to enforce the law rather than to remedy her own harms.

It appears rather obvious that Ms. Laufer had no intention to book rooms at most of these hotels, or any at all. As Justice Barrett, who wrote the opinion, noted, it seems Ms. Laufer was looking to force hotels to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. In other words, Ms. Laufer was acting as a federal vigilante, and quite a prolific one at that.

Laufer has singlehandedly generated a circuit split. The Second, Fifth, and Tenth Circuits have held that she lacks standing; the First, Fourth, and Eleventh Circuits have held that she has it. We took this case from the First Circuit to resolve the split.

In fact, Ms. Laufer has brought so many suits, in so many jurisdictions, that she has created her own circuit split regarding her standing. The Supreme Court took the case in order to resolve said split.

After we granted review, the case took an unusual turn. In July, the United States District Court for the District of Maryland suspended Laufer’s lawyer, Tristan Gillespie, from the practice of law for defrauding hotels by lying in fee petitions and during settlement negotiations. … It based the suspension on a report finding that Gillespie demanded $10,000 in attorney’s fees per case even though he used “boilerplate complaints.”…

Following these revelations, Laufer voluntarily dismissed her pending suits with prejudice, including her complaint against Acheson in the District of Maine. … She then filed a suggestion of mootness in this Court. At this point, Acheson had already filed its principal brief on the standing issue, and we deferred a decision on mootness until after oral argument.

It seems that Ms. Laufer’s original attorney, Tristan Gillespie, was “cooking the books” and defrauding the companies that agreed to settle rather than go through the time and expense of a trial. After Mr. Gillespie was suspended, Ms. Laufer dismissed her pending suits, including the one against Acheson, with prejudice, meaning she could not refile the case. She then suggested that, since she had no case pending against Acheson Hotels, the case they filed against her was moot, i.e., no longer meaningful. Since the plaintiffs had already filed their briefs, the court decided to hold their decision on mootness until they heard oral arguments.

Ms. Laufer did not say the court must dismiss for mootness, but that it could, if it wished, decide the jurisdictional issue at hand. Acheson Hotels on the other hand, stated it was quite important for the court to deal with the matter, since mooting the case would leave untold hotels exposed to potential malicious prosecution from Ms. Laufer and others. Justice Barrett stated that the court was sensitive to Acheson’s concerns, but had no proof that Laufer dropped her case to avoid their review. For that reason, the court decided:

The judgment is vacated, and the case is remanded to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit with instructions to dismiss the case as moot.

In addition to the opinion of the court, Justices Thomas and Jackson offered concurring opinions.

Deborah Laufer has filed hundreds of lawsuits against hotels she has no intention of visiting, claiming that their websites lack accessibility information mandated by a federal regulation. At both parties’ request, this Court agreed to answer a question that has divided the Courts of Appeals: whether plaintiffs like Laufer have standing to bring these claims. The Court decides not to decide that question because, after briefing began, Laufer voluntarily dismissed her claim in the District Court. I would answer this important and recurring question, which, as all agree, we have the authority to do. And, I conclude that Laufer lacks standing.

Justice Thomas noted that the court agreed it has the authority to decide if Ms. Laufer, along with plaintiffs like her, have standing to sue. The court decided to punt on that question, simply because Ms. Laufer voluntarily dismissed her claim against Acheson Hotels. In Justice Thomas’ opinion, Ms. Laufer lacks the standing necessary to pursue such litigation.

The District Court concluded that Laufer lacked standing and dismissed her complaint. The First Circuit reversed, relying primarily on this Court’s holding in Havens Realty Corp. v. Coleman, 455 U. S. 363 (1982), that a tester had standing to sue under the Fair Housing Act. …

Laufer lacks standing because her claim does not assert a violation of a right under the ADA, much less a violation of her rights. Her claim alleges that Acheson Hotels violated the ADA by failing to include on its website the accessibility information that the Reservation Rule requires. Yet, the ADA provides that “[n]o individual shall be discriminated against on the basis of disability in the full and equal enjoyment of the . . . services . . . of any place of public accommodation.” 42 U. S. C. §12182(a). In other words, the ADA prohibits only discrimination based on disability—it does not create a right to information.

While agreeing that the case was moot, Justice Jackson disagreed with the other part of the opinion of the court.

I agree with the Court that this case is moot and that it should be resolved on that basis. But the Court goes further, ordering vacatur of the judgment of the Court of Appeals under United States v. Munsingwear, Inc., 340 U. S. 36 (1950). … In my view, when mootness ends an appeal, the question of what to do with the lower court’s judgment, if anything, raises a separate issue that must be addressed separately.

In Justice Jackson’s view the question of vacating the opinion of the First Circuit Court of Appeals was not decided as a separate fact.

So what are we to make of all of this? Let me start with a question the court did not even consider: That the Americans with Disabilities Act is unconstitutional. The ADA states…

It is the purpose of this chapter-

• to provide a clear and comprehensive national mandate for the elimination of discrimination against individuals with disabilities;

(2) to provide clear, strong, consistent, enforceable standards addressing discrimination against individuals with disabilities;

(3) to ensure that the Federal Government plays a central role in enforcing the standards established in this chapter on behalf of individuals with disabilities; and

(4) to invoke the sweep of congressional authority, including the power to enforce the fourteenth amendment and to regulate commerce, in order to address the major areas of discrimination faced day-to-day by people with disabilities.

Stopping discrimination against individuals with disabilities is not a power delegated to the United States by the Constitution, which is required for Congress to act under the Tenth Amendment.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

While the constitutionality of the ADA was not a question before the court, the question of a Ms. Laufer’s right to sue under that law was. Since the stated purpose of the act was not to implement a power delegated to the United States, but instead “to invoke the sweep of congressional authority”, not only was it unnecessary and improper for Congress to pass it, but a violation of George H. W. Bush’s duty when he signed it, and a violation of the justices’ oaths of office to uphold it.

Don’t get me wrong, I do not believe people with disabilities should not be discriminated against. My wife and I regularly have to deal with disabled access to buildings both private and public, due to her disability. That does not mean the United States has the authority “to ensure that the Federal Government plays a central role in enforcing the standards established in this chapter on behalf of individuals with disabilities.” Perhaps I’ll write an article one day on the problems with the ADA, but that is not the focus of this article.

Another item not considered, except possibly by Justice Thomas, is that Ms. Laufer’s attacks not only harmed the companies she has sued, but by taking up time in the judicial system, may have prevented legitimate suits from being heard in a timely manner, if at all. Not only are the owners of these hotels having to bear the cost of litigation, but the shear number of suits, combined with the obvious purpose of using them to enforce the law, may have enriched Ms. Laufer and her attorneys, but at the cost of justice to others.

By both mooting the case and vacating the First Circuit’s decision that Ms. Laufer had standing, the court does restore some sense of justice by restricting the use of malicious prosecution. However, by not deciding the question of Ms. Laufer’s standing, the court also allows her, and others like her, to act as federal vigilantes. I hope you’ll think of this case the next time you hear of some outrageous lawsuit being filed to promote an agenda.

“To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead.”  —Thomas Paine

That would be The Unreachables in this country, who no matter how much actual evidence to the contrary, simply continue to hate Donald Trump.  They celebrate each time one of the corrupt, partisan judges presiding over one of the bogus indictments against Trump ignore the law.

Last week new blasting headlines featuring low intelligence diva, Big Fani Willis, Fulton County, GA DA persecuting Trump burned up the Internet.  A grand jury returned a RICO indictment against Trump and 18 others in her county.  That grand jury either has zero ability to process and fully understand the charges or they were all Democrat Unreachables.  Big Fani celebrated.

Meanwhile back at the ranch, Big Fani apparently has been doing some pillow talk as well as coordinated planning with liar, cheat, China’s water boy, fake president, Joe Biden and his handlers in the Red White House to “get Trump”.

BREAKING: Filing Accuses Fulton County DA Fani Willis of Having ‘Improper’ Romantic Relationship with Top Trump Prosecutor – Seeks to Disqualify Fani Willis From RICO Case, Jan. 8, 2024: “The filing claims Nathan Wade, the special prosecutor hired to go after Trump, paid for luxury vacations he took with Fani Willis to Napa Valley and a cruise in the Caribbean – and used money from Fulton County to pay for their out-of-town escapades.

“County records show that Wade, who has played a prominent role in the election interference case, has been paid nearly $654,000 in legal fees since January 2022. The DA authorizes his compensation.” the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

“The motion claims “sources close to both the special prosecutor and the district attorney have confirmed they had an ongoing, personal relationship.”

But popular Georgia Governor, Brian Kemp, who hates Donald Trump with a passion determined several months ago there was no reason to open an investigation into Big Fani’s dirty crusade to destroy Donald Trump.  Kemp has nothing to be proud of as his state violated federal election law on Nov. 3, 2020, allowing Biden to steal the election.  Fani Willis Prosecutors Gunning For Trump Secretly Met with January 6 Committee Investigators, Jan. 11, 2024

Kemp is a Republican.  Their SOS (Secty of State), Brad Raffensperger, is another corrupt Republican also dirty as a baby’s diaper.  No question Trump won Georgia but those two poltroons with their conspiracy theories Trump lost to Biden in that stolen election also affected the outcome of U.S. Senate and U.S. House federal candidates.  Georgia Senate Proposes Bill To Remove Raffensperger From State Board Of Elections And Confirms Boards Authority To Investigate The Secretary Of State, Jan. 13, 2024

So, what say you now, governor?  Big Fani has stepped in her own huge pile of steaming feces and it’s going to land in your lap.  Courageous state senator, Colton Moore [R] went after Big Fani and HIS own party members (alleged Republicans) went after Senator Moore:  Georgia Republicans Suspend State Senator Who Wanted to Impeach Fani Willis, Sept. 29, 2023.  If I lived in a district of one of those RINO’s, I’d do everything to throw his/her arse out during their upcoming primary.  

My Dec. 26, 2023 column, Will Trump’s Attorney’s Stop the Second Steal in Nov. 2024?  is a must read as it begins some of the backstory with more of the truth emerging.

One of the links I provided is “Explosive Revelation: Fani Willis Linked To Massive Election Fraud And Money Laundering RICO Enterprise!” dated August 31, 2023.  The very next day, Sept. 1, 2023, Gov. Kemp announced no investigation into Big Fani and her criminal activities.  Chris Gleason is the author of the above article which isn’t filled with his opinion but proof: “In a shocking turn of events, a bombshell investigation has uncovered jaw-dropping connections between Fani Willis and a sprawling web of election fraud and money laundering activities…

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

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

“Working with the Epoch Times investigative journalist Steven Kovac, we made a stunning find. Many of the top ActBlue “Contributors” never made the individual contributions. Many of these “Not Employed Individual Contributors” were the victims of a highly sophisticated money laundering scheme.  The scheme was further exposed when I provided the data to James O’Keefe and his people at O’Keefe Media Group who captured many unwitting “Money Laundering Smurfs” in Maryland.

“This massive ongoing money laundering operation involves wire fraud, evasion of campaign finance limits, structuring of financial transactions, tax fraud, non profit fraud, identity theft, and elder abuse.  The RICO operation is still in operation today. Using the identities of unwitting elderly, and other democrat voters, this massive RICO money laundering enterprise is the fuel for the entire election fraud RICO operation.

BUYING A DISTRICT ATTORNEY

“The criminal money laundering enterprise operates at the Federal, state and local levels. The first local elected official identified as part of this ongoing money laundering operation was Alvin Bragg.”

Alvin Bragg, another ass-kissing junkyard dog for the Democrat/Communist Party USA, is the Manhattan District Attorney who spearheaded the bogus indictment against Trump in March 2023.

What Gleason, working with Steven Kovac, an investigative journalist for the Epoch Times, uncovered – and I have no doubt there’s more coming, could land Big Fani in prison.  Here’s more from the Gleason article above:

“Should the people of Wisconsin be concerned about the purchase of a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat via a massive nationwide money laundering scheme using the stolen identities of the elderly?  How many other judges and courts have been compromised nationwide at the Federal, State and local levels?

“THEY SAY “FOLLOW THE MONEY” SO WE DID…The information on Fani Willis campaign contributions was obtained directly from the State of Georgia campaign finance database “HERE“.

Big Fani’s allegations of election interference by Trump and the other 18 defendants is prosecutorial misconduct.  It’s the State of Georgia that violated federal election law regarding federal candidates and counting of ballots.  I don’t live in GA but the Atlanta Journal Constipation (aka Atlanta Journal-Constitution or AJC) is another “news” paper that constantly peddles conspiracy theories, i.e., Trump tried to overturn the election.  Wrong.  You can’t overturn an election based on fraud and violating federal election law.  An election is simply void.

Searching for this column, I find the AJC has been concentrating on Big Fani and her sexual relationship with Nathan Wade whom she hired to oversee the persecution of Trump and was paid huge sums of moola.  Zip, zero, zilch regarding bringing a RICO indictment against Big Fani based on the evidence already obtained and made public August 31, 2023.  But, unfortunately for Big Fani, this isn’t going away.

Maria Elvira Salazar (FL-R) and Mikie Sherrill (NJ-D); and J.B. Pritzker, governor of Illinois.”

What can the people of Georgia do?

I am quite familiar with Ty Clevenger and his efforts on several issues.  Attorney Clevenger: Concerned Citizens Need Not Wait for Politicians to Prosecute Fani Willis and Her Lover Nathan Wade – There May Be Other Options, Jan. 11, 2024

“According to Attorney Ty Clevenger, if elected prosecutors in Georgia are too squeamish or biased to go after Fulton County, Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis or her lover Nathan Wade, there are other options.

“A private citizen can ask a superior court judge to sign an arrest warrant or he/she could take the case directly before a grand jury.  Clevenger explained the scenario in a trio of tweets.”  Rest at link.  Might I suggest a dozen or so GOP County Chapters get all their members to pursue the path Clevenger outlines?  Network with each other and bury (metaphorically speaking) a selected superior court judge with signatures.

Georgia’s Attorney General Christopher Carr is also a Republican.  If your WEF governor, Brian Kemp continues to be squishy (weighing voter reaction for his next election run), this might be a possibility.  I’m not a lawyer and have no legal training, but I can read.

The mission of the GA AG is to serve the people of the State of Georgia and “in the interests of the state”.  By law and as is in most states, they cannot represent private individuals.  HOWEVER:  The Fulton County DA’s office receives grants from the state and unconstitutional federal grants.  It’s done through Big Fani’s Grants & Governmental Affairs division.  Politely (by the thousands) tell AG Christopher Carr to open a criminal investigation into big Fani’s involvement in money laundering (“Explosive Revelation: Fani Willis Linked To Massive Election Fraud And Money Laundering RICO Enterprise!”).  Tell him to get those investigative journalists/reporters in a meeting with him so they can lay out actual evidence.

I do believe that might be what Jordan is going after Breaking: House Judiciary Committee Launches Investigation into Fani Willis’s Love Interest and Legal Associate Nathan Wade — On His Politically Motivated Prosecution of Donald Trump, Jan. 12, 2024.  This involves potential misuse of federal funds.  The U.S. Dept. of Justice is corrupt and weaponized against Trump and patriotic Americans.  The most we can expect from yet another committee hearing is blasting Big Fani’s corruption across this country.  That her ONLY mission is to “get Trump” while ruining so many lives.

Part 3: The mounting consequences of importing millions of people into the USA

If we fail to stop Joe Biden’s invited refugee invasion of America, most Americans are not prepared for what’s coming.  In 2024, most Americans take for granted MOST of their freedoms.  They enjoy education from kindergarten through 12th grades.  At least 20 percent enjoy college educations.  Millions more enjoy vocational training schools.  Most gain employment with choices of work into thousands of jobs. Most enjoy living in a three bedroom home or nice apartment.

They enjoy unlimited access to their National Parks.  They enjoy limitless deer, duck and other game hunting. They enjoy lakes and streams for fishing or boating.  Americans enjoy wide-open Interstate Highways.  They enjoy endless fresh water.  Most Americans enjoy breathing clean air, except if they live in large cities where they inhale toxic air 24/7, i.e., Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Houston, Dallas, NYC and Denver’s toxic Brown Cloud.

But that’s all going to change within the next 25 to 30 years as Joe Biden and Congress invite a massive wave of refugees from around the world to the tune of 100 million more people, added, net gain to the United States.  As stated by government demographers, the USA remains on course to jump from 340 million in 2024 to 440 million people by 2050, give or take a few years.   That’s correct, we add 4.0 million, net gain annually, virtually all by legal and illegal immigration.  If you want to see it on a 10 minute video, it will sober you as to what you or your kids face within 25 years.

“Immigration by the numbers—off the chart” by Roy Beck

What you just witnessed WILL be your life and/or your children’s lives in 2050 if we don’t stop Biden’s invasion of America.

What Other Negative Aspects Will You Experience in 2050?

With this invasion’s onslaught of America, your “quality of life” will spiral into the toilet faster than a bullet train.  That 100 million added people equates to doubling the populations of our 35 most populated cities.  New York City will jump from 8.4 million to 16.8 million. That 11 million in Los Angeles area will jump to 22 million.  Every city will  become an air polluted, water-scarce, toxic waste-land with people jammed into every nook and cranny.

Question: how are you going feed THAT many people?  How will you water them?  How will you educate them?  How will you provide jobs? How will you keep them warm in winter?  How are your tax dollars going to pay for all their welfare food, clothing, housing, medical, educational and transportation need?  Answer: those refugees will break our entire welfare system, our housing systems, our educational systems. One look at the Sanctuary Cities screaming to stop those illegal aliens will give you a taste of their stupidities.

Have you considered what’s going to happen to our 63 National Parks?  Have you considered another 100 million people trying to visit them?  Are you prepared for the fact that they are already overrun, overwhelmed, trashed and overcrowded by TOO many people in 2024? Do you realize that there’s a very good chance that you won’t get to visit them because even a lottery system could lock you out?  That’s what Biden and Congress are doing to you and your family.

What about the roadkill rates?  Do you know that American cars, boats,  trains and planes kill 1,000,000 vertebrate animals every day of the year?  That’s 365 million fellow creatures trying to live their lives when they get chopped up, run over and ripped apart by our machines on the lakes, roads and airways of America.  With another 100 million people in our country,  the roadkill rate may/will jump to over 200 million daily. That’s deer, elk, rabbits, bears, lions, hawks, owls, antelope, beavers, rodents, and thousands of other animals snuffed out by our human overpopulated numbers.

As it is, our wind turbines that create electricity chop up as high as 679,000 birds annually.  Another 988,000,000 birds are killed by flying into our windows where they break their necks, annually. Common house cats kill 1.4 to 4.0 billion birds annually in the USA.  Those cats also kill up to 6 billion small mammals, annually.  Our country, at 340,000,000 people, plus another 48 million illegal aliens, abets the 80 to 100 species suffering extinction every day of the year.  It’s called “The Six Extinction Session.”  It’s deadly and it is final for those species that cannot cope with our poisons, habitat destruction and outright murder by our machines.

Can you imagine what those numbers are going to be in 2050 with another 100 million people in America?

“Already the once sweet-watered streams, most of which bore Indian names, were clouded with silt and the wastes of man; the very earth was being ravaged and squandered.  To the Indians it seemed that these Europeans hated everything in nature…the living forests and their birds and beasts, the grassy glades, the water, the soil, and the air itself.” ~ Dee Brown, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee

Have you thought about “catastrophic climate destabilization”?  If it’s true, and if it’s descending upon our civilization like a deadly, invisible curtain, and if it’s caused by fossil fuel exhaust—-how do you think it will be solved by adding another 100 million people?  They will need to burn energy for transport, eating, housing, schooling and products.

What about those 100 million people arriving from incompatible cultures and religions?  What about the Islamic terrorists?  What about their world-views that are diametrically opposite to the American Way of Life?  What happens when the Islamic Sunni’s, Shiites and Kurds arrive and are placed in close proximity to one another?  Do you want to be in their Jihad against each other or us?  How do you think our national cohesion will survive?  Answer: it won’t. We will  be a nation of conflicted strangers.

What happens when our water, oil energy and resources suffer exhaustion?  If you read Blink: Humanity’s 300 Year Self-Terminating Experiment with Industrialism by Christopher O. Clugston,  you will learn that our water supplies, oil energy and resources that allow our civilization to operate—-will become exhausted.  In other words, we  won’t have the minerals, metals, water, and/or energy to keep this overloaded civilization operating.

Do you or your kids want to be around for that?

Have you heard about scientists placing an overload of mice in a box with plenty of food? Very quickly, they argue, fight and kill one another.  Do you notice the 100,000 drug overdose deaths annually in the USA?  They occur in cities where everyone lives on top of one another. Can you imagine those mental illness and drug overdoses with another 100  million people?  What about the American homeless situation?  Will another 100 million refugees solve that?

Please understand that I have covered a few items of what we face with an added 100 million more people. It’s going to get much worse than  anyone in America can comprehend. Once the numbers manifest, every single American faces massive social, economic, political, emotional, financial, mental and physical consequences.

If I could take every American on a two week tour of China or India, countries with 1.4 and 1.43 billion people respectively, there would be a national outcry to stop all immigration into America. Those two countries cannot solve any of their problems because of their enormous populations.  We can here and now.  We do not need NOR will we survive the current numbers being imported into America.

Please send this Part 3 of this series to all your networks.  We must inform all Americans as to what future generations face if this invasion continues.  Do it for your kids!

At what point in American history did free, fair, transparent, and lawful elections become a partisan issue? Are we really now a society of overly partisan cheating voters no better than the corrupt politicians we vote for, or against?

The USA is very unique in the world in that all political authority exists at the pleasure of the governed, the People. Our government has a right to exist only so long as the People say so, and only so long as governments perform within the limited powers they are granted. Taxation without representation is prohibited in the USA, no matter which party you’re loyal to, or how you might feel about it.

A free self-governed society requires first and foremost, free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections, allowing the People to self-govern via their legitimate votes. Without this cornerstone of self-governance, no member of society is free, and no government can be trusted at all.

This makes the pursuit of free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections the most critically important issue for any free self-governing society. No matter your personal political beliefs, conservative, liberal, capitalist, socialist, communist, anarchists, etc., if we have no legitimate elections, your opinions are irrelevant.

So, how did this matter become a partisan issue?

There has been more than adequate evidence presented to prove that the elections of 2020 and 2022 (and others dating back decades) were “unlawful,” meaning, held in direct violation of State and Federal Election Laws in all fifty states. Like it or not, it’s legally impossible to get a “lawful” outcome from any “unlawful” process.

Many have claimed that these election cycles included numerous methods of outright election fraud, a crime. But criminal claims must be reported to proper law enforcement agencies for investigation, handed over to a proper prosecutor and grand jury for criminal indictment, a trial and conclusion in the criminal courts following rules of criminal procedure. It’s a very long difficult road that can take years and cost millions of dollars.

But there’s no getting around a cut-n-dry case in civil courts to determine whether or not the election procedures used within a state followed, or were in violation of, State Election Laws in place at the time of the elections. The law says we must do this, but instead, people did that.

This is a YES or NO question for State Supreme Courts. Did the election procedures in 2020 and 2022 comply with, or violate State Election Laws? Simple… cut-n-dry and impossible for any legitimate court to get wrong.

If a State Supreme Court rules that election procedures failed to comply with State Election Laws, then the election was “unlawful.” You can’t get a “lawful” outcome to an “unlawful” election process. End of story…

After getting answers to this very basic question, the next question can be asked…was it done by intent, and did those who did it, commit crimes in the process of doing it?

2020 and 2022

If State Supreme Courts declare “unlawful” election procedures happened in these election cycles, then everyone who benefited by these elections, no matter person, party, or office, cannot hold their office “lawfully.”

Claims of fraud are a separate matter. Codes governing criminal procedures will direct how any formal criminal complaints are handled.

But the People do not have to prove fraud, they only have to prove “unlawful.” Election laws vary from state to state. Therefore, this is a State issue for the State Supreme Courts to decide. Only if the State Court gets the matter wrong, does it become a Federal case to force the State into Constitutional compliance via federal courts.

All Americans

All Americans must support and insist upon free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections, without any regard for partisan views. Because if they don’t, all Americans have lost all control over their own government and country.

No issue should be more non-partisan than this one. While there will always be a laundry list of things Americans might disagree on, if we can’t all agree on this one, none of the secondary issues will matter at all.

Candidates who are legally eligible for office must be allowed ballot access. It’s not just the candidate who is harmed by efforts to block access to ballots just because political opponents fear running against them. Voters are disenfranchised, denied their right to vote for leaders of their choice, by simply blocking ballot access for their candidate of choice. It’s the kind of tactics usually only seen in 3^rd world dictatorships.

To be American is to demand free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections. Anything less is un-American!

When the snooze media promotes blatant lies, playing politics instead of real journalism, it amounts to overt election interference. When “fake news” exists at the demand of advertisers, it’s a dangerous form of corruption designed to control the outcome of elections. When social media platforms only allow “approved narratives” and rely upon highly partisan “fact-checkers” to censor posts on their public forums, this too is a powerful means of election interference.

We either have free, fair, lawful, and transparent elections, or we no longer have a free, fair, lawful, and transparent country!

Today, we live in a world of confusion and delusion, like I never could have dreamed we’d see in my lifetime.  Or ever, for that matter.  The “goats” on the Left have done their job well, putting forth lies and deception, so much so, that if it were possible, even the “elect” would be deceived.

The father of lies has infiltrated every area of our society, especially going after the young children and young people now coming of age, through demonic indoctrination that permeates our atmosphere.  Lies abound in public schools, from pre-school through college. If that were not enough, the devil’s also captured “pop culture,” through Hollywood movies, filled with Leftist propaganda, through what now passes for “music,” and unlike previous generations, through social media, online chat rooms and video games.

Even the majority of our churches are now apostate, with pastors refusing to preach the whole counsel of God for fear of offending wicked men and women, convicting them in their unrepentant sin.  The sheep no longer have Godly shepherds who will speak the truth to them, but instead desire to be well-liked and popular among the people. Surely the Spirit of the Lord has departed from these places, which is very sad because many of these churches were once filled with courageous leaders and faithful servants of God.  Once upon a time, they made a life-changing eternal difference for countless lost souls.  But all have turned aside and gone their own way — the way of the world; the broad road that leads to destruction.

Chaos and confusion, lies, deception and delusion have been the result.  The wicked ideology of Communism has overtaken the once-Christian America and through their orchestrated plans of brainwashing and indoctrination, the people of our nation are now wandering — they’re lost and they’re perishing because they no longer have a clue what God’s Word says or even Who God is anymore.  Nor do they care.

There have been many delusions that have overtaken us as a people the last couple of decades. But perhaps the most vile is that of homosexuality and now “transgenderism.”  Yes, there have always been those who’ve engaged in these deviant behaviors.  But God Almighty rightly called these behaviors “abominations.”  Today, they’re not only accepted, but celebrated pridefully 365 days a year.  Even the Pope is now leading countless millions astray as he gives his “infallible” approval of what God has so strongly condemned.

Across America and around the world, perversion has overtaken us.  Not all engage in these abominations, but there are few, indeed, who will ever speak against them or tell the truth about them, even those still in their “right minds.”  Those who do, are quickly labeled as “haters” and not just harshly condemned by society, but in many cases, persecuted and prosecuted for speaking God’s truth, and plain common sense.  Perversion, not unlike that of the hedonism of the Israelites worshiping a golden calf; or the wickedness of Sodom, is mainstream now, world-wide.

The solution to this delusion, of course, is a return to God, in humble repentance and faith.  As wicked and evil as this world is now, any nation that repents, humbles themselves and seeks God again, will see blessings beyond measure.  Any nation that wakes up to the evil that is actively destroying them and their children, and whose people turn their eyes upon Jesus, will become the strongest, safest, most prosperous, and bountiful nation in the world, even in the midst of utter destruction elsewhere. I believe there will be a nation that repents in this way — and the people there will repent individually, as families and as a whole. But sadly, I don’t believe it will be the United States.  We’re a hard-hearted people, a lazy and ungrateful people. We have forgotten God and our history.

Today in America, men are sharply condemned for their masculinity, and it begins when they’re just young boys.  Authority figures twist their little minds and cause them to question their natural-born gender. They’re told that “manly” traits are “bad,” and “toxic.”  Much better to behave like girls.

Meanwhile, women who embrace their natural femininity are likewise condemned and told they’re victims of the “patriarchy,” which of course, they’re also told is their true mission in life to dismantle.

This is all by the meticulous design of the Communists, the Globalists, and the Leftists who seek to destroy all that God made and called “good,” and replace it with what these arrogant pea-brains believe will be “better.”  “Better” for them, perhaps, as it fulfills the purposes of their father, the devil, but not better for anyone, or anything else.

In Genesis 1:27, we read about God’s perfect design: “God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.”  Both were created in God’s own image, and they were created male and female, as were all living things, designed to unite together as “one flesh,” and thereby be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth. God puts great value on all life, especially His image-bearers.  In God’s perfect plan, neither is superior or inferior to the other. Both are equally valued and equally needful of one another.

God gave the man specific duties.  One of the first was to work, as He placed Adam in the garden to work it and care for it.  And He knew this world would be difficult after sin entered in, so He commanded men to be strong and courageous, not frightened or dismayed, as He assured men that “the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

He made men to be protectors of women and children.  In 1 Corinthians 16:13, we read, “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.”  He instructed men to be loving — to God, their wives, their children, and those they interact with as they sojourn on this earth.  We’re also to provide for our families and others — and lovingly instruct, train and discipline our children, raising them to know and love their God.  And God created men to be loving servants, not arrogant tyrants.  Jesus showed us how.

The Bible also has a lot to say about women.  Proverbs 31 tells us how a Godly woman is more precious than jewels, and we read there, “Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.”  Ladies are also to be modest in their dress, diligent as they work at home, raise their children, and manage their household with wisdom.  And again, love is the key component, as they support, help, and encourage their husbands as the two bear the burdens of life together, as one flesh.  And God didn’t create women to be less intelligent, rather as we read again in Proverbs 31, “She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.”

God created both genders to need one another. Not only is procreation impossible without male and female, but when women desire to be men and men desire to be women, the result is not harmonious utopia — it’s chaos, confusion, despair, and madness.  Both men and women are to be servants to one another.  Both are equally created and loved by God and it’s only through mutual humble servanthood to one another can the home and family be truly God-honoring and blessed.

I believe men should greatly honor, protect, serve, and adore their wives.  And I believe wives should greatly honor and be righteously “proud” of the husbands God’s given them.  Of course, this is impossible when we don’t know God’s Word, study it, meditate upon it, live by it and teach it to our children.  Today, the world has forgotten God, except for those who claim to be “atheists,” and then they hate the God they claim to believe doesn’t exist.  If any nation wants to see restoration and blessing, it must first begin with a return to God and His divine plan for mankind.  And in today’s world, I can think of no better practical place to start than showing the world we’re not ashamed of the love we have for our spouses and honoring them publicly, while at the same time letting the world know that we’re doing things God’s way.

That’s why I’ve decided to make a way for husbands and wives to honor one another publicly.  I’m inviting all who will, to write a short article (800 words or so) that honors their husband or wife.  These articles, will, Lord willing, be published in upcoming editions of Wisconsin Christian News.  We request that you also send a photo of the two of you to accompany the articles.

All who send in an article and photo will receive, as a “thank you” gift, a T shirt that you can wear proudly, as you publicly honor and encourage your spouse.  For the men, the shirt will say “I Love My Wife,” and below that is the Scripture: “Far more precious than jewels…A woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” (Proverbs 31).  The ladies will receive a shirt that says, “I Love My Husband,” and below that is the Scripture: “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” (I Corinthians 16:13-14).  What a testimony of a Godly marriage and family this will be to all who see it!

I’ll get things started, with my own abbreviated story, to give you an example of what I’m looking for.  I’m short on space so can’t give you my whole story, but I hope yours is more detailed!

“It was truly a miracle of God when He brought my wife, Lisa, into my life.  I was a young man, having just started my own business and had nearly given up on finding a ‘help mate’ suitable for me.  None of the girls I had courted previously were truly serious about their commitment to God.  But then, when I least expected it (to put it mildly), He introduced me to Lisa.

“I know Jesus said, ‘there is none good, but one, that is God.’  And also, the Bible says, ‘there is none that doeth good, no not one.’  But Lisa truly is a good person; the best person I’ve ever known.  You might say we had an ‘arranged marriage,’ because the Holy Spirit was there when we met, and guided us every step of the way prior to our wedding day and every day since.  God Himself arranged our marriage!

“Our engagement was short, because I didn’t want to let her ‘get away!’ We met on Valentine’s Day, 1990, and were married just five months later, July 14, 1990.  Two years later, our first child was born, a son, followed by two more daughters.  As I worked extremely hard at my business, Lisa stayed home, raised our children, and managed the household.  I could not have been blessed with a better wife or a better mom for our children.

“We both raised our kids together, to know and love God, and be thankful to Him for all He provided us.  I tucked the kids in with bedtime prayers every night, and Lisa exemplified a ‘Proverbs 31 woman’ in every respect, always by my side, always helping me through the trials and tribulations of life, always supportive of my work and always diligent with family finances and household duties.  And more than once, her wisdom saved me from my own crazy ideas!

“We worked together in our church, raised our children in the church, and then when I began to work in full time ministry and we had literally nothing — so many times, when the burdens of ministry and family finances were so heavy on my shoulders that I really did believe we were eating our last meal, because there was no money for the next one — she always encouraged me, always pointed me back to God as our Provider, and never once doubted my abilities as a good husband and father, worthy of her and our children.

“So many times, she was content to ‘go without’ the things I thought she should have, preferring instead to make sure the children had all they needed, and she always found a way to make a penny into a dollar or one dollar into ten.  As I write this, we’ve now been together nearly 34 years, and we’re grandparents to three wonderful grandchildren. I can’t imagine life without my dear wife, Lisa.  I feel like the most blessed man on earth, for God truly has given me the greatest desires of my heart.  I love my wife!”

Now, I hope you’ll send us your story.  Let us help you honor your wife or husband.  Sit down and share your heart.  Write your own love story of the blessing you’ve received from God, and we’ll share it, to encourage the world to do life God’s way, as you bless and honor the Godly mate He’s given you.  Let’s really DO this!  Now, start writing your story, because the world needs to hear it.  And feel free to call or email me for details and questions.
