At the time, he claimed the arrest was to stop him from revealing what he knows about the Biden crime family and FBI corruption. Now, Dr. Luft has disappeared entirely.<span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In the early 2000s, Luft formed a think tank called the Institute for Analysis of Global Security (IAGS) that focused on energy innovations and policy. Accordingly, from 2015 to 2018, Luft organized international energy conferences. He did this in partnership, with the China Energy Fund Committee (CEFC-USA), the non-profit arm of CEFC, China’s huge energy conglomerate that was headed by one Ye Jianming. Ye reportedly has ties to Chinese military intelligence. CEFC-USA, in turn, was headed by Patrick Ho.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In September 2020, the story broke about Hunter Biden’s laptop, which first revealed that <a href="https://www.jns.org/opinion/gal-lufts-distressing-predicament/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">the CEFC began to court the Bidens in 2015</a>:</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;">According to documents in the laptop, the Biden family began their ties with CEFC in 2015. In May 2017 … the Bidens formed Sinohawk Holdings to carry out their partnership with CEFC</span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-weight: 700;">. CEFC agreed to pay Sinohawk $5 million and</span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;"> </span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-weight: 700;"><u>transfer another $5 million to the Biden family as a gift</u></span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;">.

In February 2023, Gal Luft found himself detained in Cyprus on arms trafficking charges as he was about to head for Israel. He claimed that this was politically motivated because had dirt on both the FBI and the Biden family. He’d tried to inform the DOJ in 2019, during Trump’s presidency, but was ignored. Now, though, with things heating up around Biden, says Luft, he’s being silenced.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">He contends that Hunter Biden had an FBI mole named “One-Eye.” That mole told Ye and Ho that the DOJ was investigating them. Further, <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/03/22/hunter-biden-used-fbi-mole-to-tip-him-off-to-china-probes-tipster/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">said Luft</a>,</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Soon after that tipoff, Ye offered Hunter $1 million to be his “private counsel” and flew to China, leaving his wife, daughter, son, mother, and nanny in his $50 million penthouse at 15 Central Park West.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">He was detained in Shanghai three months later and disappeared.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Before he left New York, Ye told Ho that the coast was clear for him to come back to the US.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">On Nov. 18, 2017, Ho flew into JFK Airport, where he was arrested by FBI agents on bribery and money laundering charges.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Ho’s arrest provided another shady business opportunity for Hunter. From the same article:</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">“<span style="font-weight: 700;">Hunter</span> was <span style="font-weight: 700;">paid $1 million</span> by CEFC to represent Ho, which <span style="font-weight: 700;">entailed <u>contacting his FBI sources</u></span> on Ho’s behalf and engaging another attorney to do the legal work, <span style="font-weight: 700;">according to emails on his laptop</span>.” </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Luft claims he contacted the DOJ after Ho was jailed and federal investigators flew to Brussels to interview him in the presence of his attorney Robert Henoch for more than 18 hours on March 28 and 29, 2019. <span font-size:="" font-style:="" new="" times="">(Emphasis added.)</span></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">While the Hunter info is interesting, <a href="https://www.jns.org/opinion/gal-lufts-distressing-predicament/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">what’s really significant</a> is that Luft told the DOJ that an FBI insider was “selling sealed U.S. law enforcement information to Chinese individuals”—and the DOJ didn’t care. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span font-size:="" font-style:="" new="" style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;" times=""></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Now, though, Congressman Comer’s House Oversight Committee has been <a href="https://www.jns.org/opinion/gal-lufts-distressing-predicament/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">investigating Luft’s</a> claims:</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In a March 2 interview with Maria Bartiromo on Fox, Comer referred to Luft as “the straw that broke the camel’s back.” He said that after word got out of Luft’s arrest, “we’ve had three people that were involved in the Hunter Biden shady business schemes that have communicated with my committee staff.”</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span>The reason Luft’s information mattered so much is that </span><a href="https://nypost.com/2023/03/22/hunter-biden-used-fbi-mole-to-tip-him-off-to-china-probes-tipster/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">it helped explain</a><span> the money Hunter Biden was bringing in. As Robert Henoch, Luft’s lawyer said,</span></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;">“</span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-weight: 700;">Congress has the Biden bank records but it doesn’t know the reason for the payments. <u>Now it does</u></span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;">. The information that the whistleblower Dr. Luft gave the DOJ four years ago is the missing link for the reason behind the China-Biden money transfers. Clearly, this is explosive stuff.” (Emphasis added.)</span></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">It was this information, which lay dormant in the DOJ for so many years, that was the predicate to Luft’s arrest on what he claims are trumped-up charges of arms trafficking to China and Libya and violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act. One must ask why, if Luft was such a notorious gun runner, he wasn’t arrested over four years ago in March 2019 when he spent 18 hours telling FBI agents everything he knew about the Bidens and Hunter.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Moreover, while the warrant was issued in November 2022, and it spells out heinous crimes, Luft wasn’t arrested <a href="https://www.jns.org/opinion/gal-lufts-distressing-predicament/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">for another three months</a>:</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;">The government issued its arrest warrant in November. It has a cooperative agreement and relationship with the Israeli Ministry of Justice and state prosecution. And yet, it didn’t communicate the arrest warrant to Israel</span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-weight: 700;">. Israeli officials could have arrested and investigated Luft at any time</span><span style="background-color: whitesmoke;">. (Emphasis added.)</span></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">That long delay, standing alone, is suspicious. Immediately after his arrest, Luft went public about his claims regarding the FBI, the Bidens, and China:</span></p></div><div><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><a href="https://twitter.com/GalLuft?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1627163772228861952%7Ctwgr%5E09c555d6a607109f47a5f81233b721264e5448dd%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.americanthinker.com%2Farticles%2F2023%2F05%2Fwhere_is_the_missing_biden_witness_gal_luft.html" target="_blank">Luft’s arrest prompted concern for his safety</a>.

Things took a sinister turn at the end of March. Luft, who was being held in a Cyprus jail awaiting a hearing to determine if he should be extradited to the United States, was released on bail after finally securing the necessary funds. And then </span><a href="https://jewishbusinessnews.com/2023/04/19/israeli-arms-trafficking-suspect-gal-luft-goes-missing-from-cyprus-amid-claims-against-biden-fbi/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">he disappeared</a><span>:</span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: "times new roman", times, serif; font-size: 18.64px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In March, a Cypriot court deliberating a US extradition request had instructed him to surrender his passport to authorities and post 400,000 euros as bail before being released from custody. He was also required to register at the Paphos police station weekly but failed for the past month and did not appear for three trial dates. Luft’s car was found abandoned on the island a day after his disappearance was reported.</span></div><div><span style="background-color: whitesmoke; font-family: "times new roman", times, serif; font-size: 18.64px;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">It's currently unknown whether he met with foul play or voluntarily dropped out of sight. However, what is well established is that since that fateful interview with the FBI in March 2019, Luft has made powerful enemies in both Chinese and American intelligence and, of course, in the Biden syndicate.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b><u><i><br /></i></u></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b><u><i>Comments:</i></u></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b><u><i><br /></i></u></b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">I feel pretty sure Luft is dead... either at the hands of the CCP or the White House Democrats.

Members of the Metro Nashville Police Department were notified at 10:13, were onsite by 10:23, and dispatched the murderer approximately two minutes after they arrived. This murderous act of a disturbed individual led to the expected calls to further infringe on the people’s right to keep and bear arms. This included a demonstration at the Tennessee State Capitol.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">On March 30, 2023, approximately 1,000 people arrived at the capitol building in Nashville to demonstrate for more restrictive gun laws, many of whom made their way into the capitol itself. At that time, three members of the House interrupted legislative business by going to the podium with a bullhorn to lead protestors in the galleries in shouts for more “gun reform”. The following Monday, resolutions were brought to the floor to expel the three legislators who led the disruption, as allowed by the state constitution:</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Each House may determine the rules of its proceedings, punish its members for disorderly behavior, and, with the concurrence of two-thirds, expel a member, but not a second time for the same offense; and shall have all other powers necessary for a branch of the Legislature of a free state.</span></em></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.capitol.tn.gov/about/docs/TN-Constitution.pdf" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Tennessee Constitution</span></a><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">, Article II, Section 12</span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Two of the three legislators, Justin Jones and Justin Pearson, were expelled, while the resolution against the third, Gloria Johnson, fell one vote short. This led to an immediate reaction from both the political and the talking head classes, claiming the move was everything from unconstitutional to undemocratic. They were invited to the Whitehouse, and Vice-President Harris went to Nashville to visit them (though she didn’t have the time to meet with the families of the victims). Shortly thereafter, first the Metro Nashville Council and then the Shelby County Council, voted for interim representatives to hold their seats until the next general election. Both councils voted unanimously to place the expelled legislators as their own interim replacements. Now the U.S. Dept. of Justice is considering an investigation into their expulsion. However, there’s a problem. The Tennessee Constitution has a clause to deal with vacancies in either house of the legislature.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Vacancies.

It’s actually worse than mob rule since only three legislators not only denied the other 94 members of the Tennessee House the right to speak, but they denied the rights of millions of Tennesseans the right to representation. In effect, Mr. Jones, Mr. Pearson, and Ms. Johnson established taxation without representation for the State of Tennessee. For this, they were legally and constitutionally punished. This theft by these three agitators was rewarded by the fawning national attention they received, but the real slap in the face to all Tennesseans was the Metro Nashville and Shelby County councils choosing to ignore the Tennessee Constitution by not only choosing their successors but to choose the usurpers as their own interim replacements. Add to that the cheers and accolades showered upon them, as they made their triumphant yet illegal return to the capitol. This reward for bad behavior has no good end. I do not think I exaggerate when I say we are witnessing the end of the republic.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Look what has happened in cities like Chicago, Los Angelos, New York, and San Francisco. When the “justice system” stopped punishing bad behavior, that behavior rapidly grew. When it was announced that people would not be prosecuted for “petty crimes”, those crimes grew as well. Let’s not forget the riots in Kenosha, St. Louis, and other cities, which went on for days because the police were prevented from arresting those demonstrators who had become violent. You can see this lack of justice all the way back in the “Occupy Wall Street” and “Capitol Hill Organized Protest” (CHOP). When bad behavior is rewarded, it grows.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Now what have the people of Nashville and Shelby County taught by these legislator agitators? They can stop debate on anything they don’t like and get away with it. Sure, they may be expelled, but their cohorts in city and county government will simply restore them to office, even if it’s illegal. This means the state’s legislative process can be held hostage by any member willing to debase themselves as these three did. How long before others learn of this newfound power to squelch debate? How long before the legislative process comes to a halt because radicals on both sides are unwilling to debate and compromise? How long before the republic stops functioning?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">What would happen if the legislative process were to grind to a halt? Sure, there would be no new laws, but there would also be no funding for programs, for law enforcement, for infrastructure, or even for salaries. How would we pay for our schools, get our driver’s licenses, or repair our roads? How many Tennesseans would call for Governor Lee to do something? I’m reminded of the wise words from George Washington in his farewell address.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of public liberty.</span></em></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><a href="http://avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century/washing.asp" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Washington</span><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">’</span><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">s Farewell Address 1796</span></span></a></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Even worse, what if this cancer were to spread? What if legislators in other states realized they would be lionized for disrupting the legislative process? If you think only Democrats would do such a thing, think again. How many other states would crumble and fall under such an onslaught? What if this cancer were to metastasize all the way to the United States government? We’ve already seen plenty of Presidents willing to rule by fiat. Do you really think they would not do so again in a situation where the legislature was paralyzed? What can we do?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Conclusion</span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">These are perilous times in which we are living. If you also live in the State of Tennessee, I recommend we do a few things.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">I have sent my state representative and senator a proposal for an amendment to the Tennessee Constitution that would prohibit an expelled or disciplined member for being eligible as a successor until a general election for their seat has been held. I recommend you do the same, but that is just the beginning.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The people of Tennessee must stand up and take control of our legislature. First, we must meet with our state legislators and impose upon them the importance of ensuring the legislative process is allowed to proceed without the extortion of disorderly behavior. Let them know that we will support them when they enforce the Tennessee Constitution, including when the expected backlash comes.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Next, we need to tell the Speaker of the House, Cameron Sexton, that he must refuse to seat these two interlopers as they were not legally chosen for their seats. Also, in the future, he must refuse to recognize any member who is expelled and restored as his or her own successor when it comes to debates on the floor or committee assignments. If the people of Nashville and Shelby County wish to punish the state for punishing their bad legislative actors, then we must punish them for denying us representation. This would, of course, create a tremendous backlash among the rabble-rousers, especially those in political office and the media. We must prepare for that. Not only must we convince our representatives to support Speaker Sexton in such a move, but we must also be willing to do so ourselves.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">We also need to encourage Governor Lee to protect this state from illegal federal interference. Unless and until the federal government can show probable cause that a legitimate federal law was violated, any threatened investigation into the expulsion of these two troublemakers will be opposed within the state. Should a federal actor attempt to violate the sovereignty of the State of Tennessee by investigating what is a state matter, they should be arrested for obstruction of justice and interfering with the state’s government. We the People of Tennessee must be willing to support Governor Lee in such an endeavor, and we need to let him know that now.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Think of how much time, effort, and money we Tennesseans devote to things like sports. How many people take the time and spend the money to go to a Titans or Predators game? What about traveling to watch the University of Tennessee, Vanderbilt, or other college teams play? How much time do you devote to NASCAR, hunting, fishing, or other endeavors? The future of the republic lies in your hands. Won’t you devote some time, effort, and money to make sure you can continue to live free?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">This must be a litmus test for all elected officers at all levels. Either they help insure the future order of the legislative process or they lose their next election, with no compromise. This is also a litmus test for every Tennessean. It’s not good enough to wait for someone else to do something. It’s not sufficient to simply write letters or post tirades. Either get up off your butt and do something or suffer the shame and ridicule from others when the republic falls and the empire of mob rule takes over. As Thomas Paine said:</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="background-color: #ffe599; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">THESE are the times that try men</em><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">’</em><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">s souls.

Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value. </em></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><a href="https://americanliterature.com/author/thomas-paine/short-story/the-american-crisis" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">The American Crisis</span></a><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"> – </span><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Thomas Paine</span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="background-color: #ffe599; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>America is in no less a crisis today.

Right now, the WHO (under the auspices of the UN and Global Elite) are writing up the edicts that will, literally, give them power over most of the world’s population.

I guess the truth has become apparent to too many, too fast of late. How can someone help to divide and conquer Conservatives (his main mission) if he is losing followers like a dog sheds his coat in summer?<span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"> People have been watching, learning, and turning against him in droves. The more they hear, the less they like, and, on the heels of the massive Trump rally in Waco, TX, the DeSantis team led by Karl Rove is taking their foot off the gas. For now.</span><p></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Put in normal speak, Ron DeSantis has stepped in it one too many times, and the odor clings. Like so many, I detest a fraud, especially one that lies to take down the country I love while enriching himself. America has had its fill of liars.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Instead of a whole piece analyzing his latest “faux paws”, I’ll give you a laundry list of the last 4+ years of Gov. Ron, and be done, unless and until things change.</span></p><h4 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: var(--h4_typography-letter-spacing); line-height: var(--h4_typography-line-height); margin-bottom: var(--h4_typography-margin-bottom); margin-top: var(--h4_typography-margin-top);"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Election Crimes</span></h4><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Immediately after his inauguration in 2019, DeSantis signed the state up for ERIC, the now-proven warehouse for phantom voters. His predecessor, Rick Scott, refused to join because he saw ERIC to be nothing but a dangerous database containing personal information for everyone in the state. It contained no program for voter roll maintenance, then or now. Scott saw that. Why didn’t DeSantis? Or did he?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">That narrow margin of victory – .4% – may have really scared Mr. D. Did he sign onto ERIC knowing full well what it was and what it did? Or did his Globalist backers suggest it make sure that their boy never just “squeaked by” again? No one will ever be sure.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">I do believe more now than ever, that his “big red wave” in the Midterms was manufactured to catapult him firmly onto the national scene. Many in the position to know, agree. The hundreds of thousands of ballots mailed to and voted from a cache of KNOWN phantom addresses and uncovered before the Midterm, were NOT for his opponent. Conservatives – who had discovered and proven the fraud – had feared they were ready for use by Crist. DeSantis and his Secretary of State, Cord Byrd, told them that Tallahassee“loved” the ERIC system, and said outright that “they used it a little differently”. Hmmm.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Citizens were demanding the state resign from ERIC, but Cord Byrd told them to “back off”, and that Florida “would never leave ERIC”. Just two weeks later, it did! When asked why Florida had resigned, Byrd feigned ignorance of the whole system, pretending that he was unaware of how ERIC worked. Bovine feces, I say. It just plain stinks.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>The widely touted Election Crimes division be damned.</b></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Those who tried to show proof of fraud were labeled as criminals, and called “purveyors of misinformation”. That word makes my blood run cold, and the fact that Tallahassee used it makes it even worse.</span></p><h4 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: var(--h4_typography-font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--h4_typography-letter-spacing); line-height: var(--h4_typography-line-height); margin-bottom: var(--h4_typography-margin-bottom); margin-top: var(--h4_typography-margin-top);"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Covid Sleight of Hand</span></h4><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">While DeSantis opened the state during Covid and received many accolades for doing so, there was another truth, well-hidden.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In 2021, DeSantis signed SB 2006 into law, giving massive authority to state health officials to ORDER people to be examined, quarantined, and injected against their will. This was to be “immediately enforceable” by law enforcement, pitting a police state against citizens. According to the National File, “the law even calls for volunteers to help authorities” in this unconstitutional act, and offered rewards for those who did.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Remember the horror we felt when we heard that the Feds were training people to do this tracking nationwide?

Wonder what he says now that the whole thing has been proven to be a false flag organized by Pelosi? We’ll never know, because he will never say. He surely did nothing when Spring Break rioters destroyed parts of the beaches for entertainment a few weeks ago.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Guessing those laws, like so many of his promises, were never enacted.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In August of 2022, DeSantis utterly ignored the illegal raid on Mar a Lago and came out with a weak “statement” three days after the fact. Donald Trump – who had helped DeSantis to win the Statehouse, with that incredibly narrow margin, in 2018 – has been either ignored or pimped by the Governor, repeatedly.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Ron’s latest statement about the planned indictment and arrest of Trump over the already disproven Stormy Daniels hubbub was adjudged childish by both the Left and the Right. Check out his interview with Piers Morgan if you haven’t seen it.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">He also supports Ukraine in the fabricated war. I have to wonder if that has anything to do with his girl, Pushaw – former press secretary and now head trouble-shooter on his presidential campaign. Where on earth did the poor blue-collar boy from Jacksonville get connected with an unregistered foreign agent?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">When Pushaw finally did register, she was not fined or penalized in any way. Hmmm.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">More to the point of disrespecting POTUS 45, Ron DeSantis has NEVER acknowledged the massive fraud that caused the Coup in 2020; he still pretends there is a legitimate government behind that barbed-wire fencing in DC.</span></p><b><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Hurricane Response</span></b></div><div><br /><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">September 28, 2022, when Ian destroyed parts of his state, volunteers from all over – Samaritan’s Purse, Grunt Style Foundation, and many others – rushed in with food, water, and clothing. They themselves lived in trailers to be near where they were needed. State resources were there, of course, but hardly exemplary.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">On Oct. 2, the Governor showed up on the scene with the fake POTUS, Biden. DeSantis took the podium to reassure the storm victims that Ronnie had come to their rescue. After thanking Biden for federal help and, apparently acknowledging that climate change had caused Ian, DeSantis then spoke of the $35 million coming from the Florida Disaster Fund, “set up by my wife”, which was to “help those in need without the regulations or strings of government policies.” (NB: That same fund gave out $6.5 million in 2017 to victims of Irma, and $16 million to victims of Michael in 2018. Obviously, <a href="https://americanpolicy.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3af5d41d21ad9fce53c86ba9d&id=347f828c9e&e=ab60d3eeb2" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">the Fund</a> was in existence long before Casey became Florida’s, first lady.)</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Miracle of all miracles, the Sanibel Causeway was rebuilt to bear traffic in just 14 days! The state was in action!! The Midterms loomed.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">On Oct. 5, the governor announced his intentions, and on October 19, the causeway was opened. But, think about it. Two weeks would be record time for a small deck to be built on the back of a private home if all the raw materials were available.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Amazing! Promises made, promises kept? Not so fast, I have a few questions, which I have asked of a LOT of Floridians.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">How did DeSantis get the materials and labor hustled together that fast to complete that one huge project – the bridge out to some of the wealthiest (donors?) homes? Half of the state had been impacted by Ian and was desperately trying to clean up and get basic needs, like power and water. There were shortages of all kinds of building materials for months.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Here’s something to think about: Ian WAS proven to be an engineered weather event. The day after Ian hit, and was barely finished destroying parts of Florida, Dane Wigginton, of GeoEngineeringWatch.org, had posted a video of definitive proof that Ian had been strengthened and steered. <a href="https://americanpolicy.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3af5d41d21ad9fce53c86ba9d&id=ff9ef2244a&e=ab60d3eeb2" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">Climate engineering</a> has been a proven fact for decades. Let that sink in.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The knot in my gut comes from the juxtaposition of these facts. Could Ron DeSantis have known ahead of time that manpower and supplies would be necessary? Dear Lord, I hate to suggest it, but there is no other explanation I can find.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Nobody can answer that question, although I’ve asked many who might know. How else does an entire 3-mile long strip of road, balanced on small island outcroppings get rebuilt and opened to heavy traffic in record time, <a href="https://americanpolicy.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3af5d41d21ad9fce53c86ba9d&id=9b4566dc5b&e=ab60d3eeb2" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">while the rest of the state flounders, waiting months for supplies to repair their homes and businesses?</a></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Today, after that epic feat last October, much of the Ft. Myers area is still decimated. Some areas, as reported were still without shelter and water as of early March 2023. <a href="https://americanpolicy.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3af5d41d21ad9fce53c86ba9d&id=772b3ffaaa&e=ab60d3eeb2" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">Articles in the Epoch Times in Feb. 2023</a>, and in the NY Times just this month, March, ’23, show Hulls of boats destroyed by the storm still resting on land, and piles of rubble, still there attracting rats mice, and worse.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Before Ian, Sanibel, and Captiva alone offered approximately 2800 lodging units. That number is, today, 155. Ft. Myers Beach has 2384 hotel rooms pre-Ian; today, only 360, 15% of pre-storm totals – <a href="https://americanpolicy.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=3af5d41d21ad9fce53c86ba9d&id=3bb5738c79&e=ab60d3eeb2" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">nearly SIX MONTHS after Ian’s destruction</a>.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Businesses trying to open back up have been faced with stiff state permitting fees, of $20,000 or more. Tallahassee’s only suggestion to the many business owners who couldn’t afford that was to get a loan from the Small Business Administration, at 2.5% interest. What happened to “helping those in need without the regulations and strings of government policy”? Guess that Disaster Fund was all used up with the big repairs that caught the attention of the press, before the Midterm Election.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>What happened to that Constitutional Oath?</b></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">It is widely known that the Florida governor supports the red flag laws in his state.

DeSantis doesn’t look or smell good anymore. According to an NBC news report, his donors are asking him to sit this election cycle out, because they don’t think he has a chance against Trump. It was said that a number of his donors and supporters are concerned that all of these recent “faux paws” indicate that this dog is NOT ready to hunt. Those who so strongly plotted for him, now admit that DeSantis would have little effect on Trump’s momentum. Ouch.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Stay in Florida, Governor, and see what you can do to heal yourself. Start with being honest with your constituents. They may not buy it, after all this. It is quite possible, from the comments I hear, that their minds may not change back.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather;

Barr made a prediction about Trump’s fate, via Fox News and the Murdochs, who hate the former president with a passion. Or, at least, Fox board member and quisling <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/21/politics/paul-ryan-never-again-trump-2024/index.html" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Paul Ryan, does</a>.

Emboldened Democrats won’t stop at Trump. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Ending this means fighting fire with fire, and with a <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/04/09/texas-ag-ken-paxton-slams-prosecutor-jose-garza-after-jury-convicts-daniel-perry/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">better cause</a>. Red State AGs and DAs must join the war, indicting rogue Democrats for apparent violations of law. Only reprisals with legal justification -- and there is plenty of fertile ground – will stop the madness and prevent the country from pitching into catastrophe. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">And another strike against Biden, his corrupt establishment handlers, and their “Marxist” administration functionaries, whose governance and policies are <a href="https://thefederalist.com/2022/07/15/11-of-the-biden-administrations-greatest-failures-so-far/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">currently separate disasters</a> (older but relevant list hyperlinked) barreling toward crises. A series or convergence of crises are very much on the table. Either way, the hammer blows to the republic could be unrecoverable. A second Biden -- or Newsom -- term would ice the cake. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Unending spin and gaslighting by the dim and untalented press spokes-of color-lesbian, Karine Jean-Pierre, and true reptilians like John Kirby, who knowingly, shamelessly lies and gaslights like old Soviet flak, can’t forestall or divert the hard realities heading our way. Reality is a cruel master and always wins in the end. Amping up the lies will not register with Americans in the throes of surging, acute pain. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Here’s news that Barr and all the inbreds in D.C. can use: Between now and when the 2024 General Election mail-in ballots start dropping -- and Democrats hanker to cheat -- much will transpire across the nation and globally. Some variables can be accounted for, but many cannot. Some might send us reeling if we knew. Good news? Not very likely, but who knows? </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The stock-in-trade for D.C. strategists and talking heads is making prognostications for 2024. Have at it; DCers love money. But they never saw Trump emerging in 2015. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">How about Obama beating the Democrats’ resident witch, Hillary Clinton in 2008? In 2020, Biden looked like a doddering blip until the rest of the Democrat field proved to be Lilliputians (what does that tell you about that scrap, Old Joe?). Kamala Harris was the thing; she had “of color,” female gravitas, only to prove a complete babbling moron, enough to gain a place on Biden’s ticket. DCers <em>may</em> have called that one right. Birds of a feather. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Let’s close by offering guesswork, not predictions. Will Trump secure the GOP nomination, as Barr claims? Likely, but not because Democrat geniuses maneuvered Bragg into indicting him. They aren’t that clever. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">All the Bragg indictment has accomplished is to galvanize Trump’s already passionate base. Democrats and Bragg aren’t chess players thinking three moves ahead; they just want to bag Trump <em>now</em>. Their generation is about instant gratification, not a patient, studied strategy. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Trump’s massive base will turn out in large numbers during the primaries and caucuses because they see an obvious wrong and will rally around their man. Again, much can change. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The establishment GOP has been reduced to a rump, thanks to America First, and are -- <a href="https://www.dailysignal.com/2022/12/22/stunning-act-of-betrayal-at-least-18-senate-republicans-vote-to-pass-1-85-trillion-mcconnell-schumer-omnibus-bill/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">as Mitch McConnell proved</a> -- appendages of the D.C. establishment and the Democrat Party. Bloodless Democrats aren’t going to pull petting zoo Republicans’ nuts out of any fire. </span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">As to fifty general elections, many bets are off. Since 2019, Democrats, the establishment, and the left have worked expertly in skewing election playing fields. They prewired local election offices (they who count the votes) using “<a href="https://thefga.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Pennsylvania-Zuckerbucks-brief-3-16-21.pdf" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Zuckerbucks</a>,” <a href="https://capitalresearch.org/article/states-banning-zuck-bucks/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">in part</a>, and through other massive amounts of dark money; by enacting COVID emergency measures ramming through mail-in balloting with no accountability (like IDs -- and with the full compliance of scared, witless RINOs); and through alleged in-election ballot-stuffing (see Dinesh D’Souza’s <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/dinesh-dsouza-bill-barr-2000-mules-criticism-january-6-house-select-committee-1715356" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">blackballed <em>2000 Mules</em></a>).</span></p><p style="font-weight: 400; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">So, if Trump is nominated -- or DeSantis or any of the current also-rans -- that’s the hostile environment they face. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">God help Trump, DeSantis, or whoever.

America’s demise didn’t begin this week and can be traced to the days of FDR and then the liberal big-government explosion of the 1960s.<br />There were several checks and balances along the way, tapping on the brakes of America hurdling toward the abyss, specifically Presidents Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump. Other Republican presidents merely took the foot off the accelerator, allowing America to coast closer to calamity while Democrat presidents floored the gas pedal, speeding up the decline.<br />The Biden administration, not content with pedal-to-the-metal acceleration, added a supercharger to the engine and filled the tank with high-octane gasoline, turning a fast car into a race car. This past week illustrated the precarious state of America as a beacon of freedom and liberty.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Start with the indictment of former President Donald Trump. A Manhattan district attorney turned a misdemeanor, long past the statute of limitations, into a federal crime which his Manhattan D.A. predecessor, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, the former New York Attorney General, and the Federal Election Commission deemed to not be a crime and declined to prosecute.</span><p></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Principal players including <a href="https://www.factcheck.org/2023/03/stormy-daniels-said-2018-letter-denying-she-had-sex-with-trump-is-a-lie/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Stormy Daniels</a> and <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/03/22/2018-letter-shows-michael-cohen-lying-to-federal-officials/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Michael Cohen</a>, in written statements, made clear that even the misdemeanor didn’t happen. Yet here we are with the Democrat party and its weaponized judicial system choosing to indict their political opponent who will be the likely Republican presidential candidate next year.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">This does not and never has happened in America, the government in power uses such might to destroy their political opponents. Yet here we are.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">This same week, independent journalist Matt Taibbi was visited by the IRS. Taibbi had the gall to publish some of the Twitter Files, documenting collusion between U.S. federal 3-letter agencies including the FBI, CIA, DOJ, DHS, CDC, and FDA, and big tech behemoths in order to control the free flow of news and information, censoring anyone they disagreed with, in flagrant violation of the First Amendment.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The <a href="https://cnsnews.com/article/washington/susan-jones/irs-agent-went-journalist-matt-taibbis-home-same-day-taibbi" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">same day</a> Taibbi was testifying before Congress about his investigations, the IRS came to his New Jersey home, unannounced, to inform him of upcoming investigations into his taxes. Quite the coincidence of timing.</span></p><span style="font-family: Merriweather;"><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">Remember Lois Lerner of the IRS <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/remember-the-irs-targeting-scandal-no-one-ever-got-punished-for-it" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">harassing</a> conservative groups and leaking sensitive information to the media? Despite some limited huffing and puffing from Republicans in Congress, there has been no reckoning or accountability.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">This is but one of many examples of a weaponized executive branch of government targeting political opponents well outside the intentions and words of our Founding Fathers.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">When the IRS got away with targeting political opponents without consequence, the FBI said “hold my beer” and went after candidate and then President Trump, knowingly using Clinton campaign paid-for fabricated opposition research to obtain FISA warrants to spy on Trump and his associates and administration. They parlayed this investigation into a year-long special counsel witch hunt into every aspect of Donald Trump’s life, without justification, hamstringing his presidency.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">Yet after years of a microscopic examination into every aspect of Trump’s life, all they could come up with was some “supposed” hush money paid to a porn actress. Trump has to be the cleanest human being alive.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">The same agencies turned a blind eye to the Biden Crime Family including Hunter’s laptop, applying a very selective form of justice. This led to two nonsensical impeachments, unprecedented, and for which once decent politicians, journalists, and other thought leaders either turned a blind eye or cheered along like a gaggle of clapping seals.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">Then there was COVID, a bad flu virus weaponized by the government health authorities to shut down the economy and entire country, impose draconian mandates and restrictions based not on science but on political expediency, to kneecap the existing president and usher in new election rules making it easier to cheat and subvert the will of the voters.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">Mail-in ballots, lack of chain of custody, ballot harvesting, no signature verification, ballot counting stopped in late evening only to see a dramatic reversal by morning in who was leading, leading to a presidential “selection” rather than an election, again with no reckoning or accountability.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">When “we the people” exercised their First Amendment right to peacefully assemble, they were entrapped and unjustly prosecuted without due process or any sense of fairness, again to cripple the outgoing president and hamper any attempt for him to run for election in 2024.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">When that failed, then came Trump’s indictment, based on fairy dust law that even liberal legal scholars have <a href="https://video.foxbusiness.com/v/6323716328112/#sp=show-clips" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">decried</a>.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">It’s not only Trump facing legal lawfare but also his associates. Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, and Mike Lindell’s cell phones were seized by the DOJ. <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2019/01/25/us-special-counsels-office-trump-ally-roger-stone-arrested-in-florida.html" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Roger Stone</a> and <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/former-trump-adviser-peter-navarro-indicted-contempt-congress-charges-rcna31856" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Peter Navarro</a> were arrested. Trump’s Mar a Lago home was raided by the FBI who rifled through Melania’s underwear. The same FBI apparently has yet to look at Hunter Biden or Anthony Weiner’s laptops.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">The last telling event this week was a transgender terrorist slaughtering 6 individuals, including 3 young children, at a Christian school. Predictably the Biden administration, singing in harmony with the corporate media, is worried about the backlash against the trans community, “<a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/03/31/fact-sheet-white-house-honors-transgender-day-of-visibility/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">celebrating</a> their resilience” while basically ignoring the 6 dead human beings and their devastated families and friends. As always, they blame the gun, not the transgender shooter likely pumped full of hormones and mental health medications, who deliberately pulled the trigger.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #cc0000;">In all of this, where are the Republicans?</span></b> Or even a few principled Democrats if any exist? If a fraction of these travesties were visited on former President Obama, Democrats would be screeching like banshees, holding press conferences, and circling the wagons with sharp fangs defending their party leader. Most Republicans remain silent. Hopefully, Trump is taking names.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">Our ruling class has made a conscious decision to spend money we don’t have, provoking needless wars, opening our borders, condoning and encouraging crime, and destroying the economy along with the hopes and dreams of millions of Americans, all in an attempt to transform America into some multicultural, uber-woke hellhole, reminiscent of the Hunger Games.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">So where does that leave America? In 2023, the formerly Judeo-Christian nation has walked away from her moral roots, acknowledging our God-given rights and privileges in favor of selfish and evil ideologies, destroying children, families, and the will of the American people.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">We have a weaponized government where those in power make the rules to suit their whims and political needs, destroying all who stand in their way. Several hundred years ago our ancestors fought to rid themselves of a king and here we are with a ruling class filled with kings. America has fought wars against the totalitarian regimes of Hitler and Stalin, yet ironically our government is emulating many of their dictatorial attributes.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">I am sad for my children and grandchildren. They will be the first generation that will most likely have fewer opportunities and a less prosperous life than their parents had. They say <a href="https://thenationaldesk.com/news/politics/the-average-empire-survives-for-250-years-is-america-at-deaths-door" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">empires</a> last not more than 250 years and America’s 250-year anniversary is in 3 short years.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;">What will be left in 3 years? Will we be in World War 3 against Russia, China, and Iran, with a ruined economy and hyperinflation, living in a police state, ruled by tyrants willing to use whatever means necessary to stomp out any opposition or resistance? Where are American leaders, men, and women of principle and conscience? Will it be left to mob rule or civil war to change course?</span></p><p style="font-size: x-large; margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><b>Welcome to the Banana Republic of America</b></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span face="-apple-system, "segoe ui", sans-serif" style="background-color: #fafafa; font-weight: 600;"><i><u><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: x-large;">Comments</span></u></i></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span face="-apple-system, "segoe ui", sans-serif" style="background-color: white; font-size: large;">And all of this calamity has descended upon us because the “Fourth Estate” which in the past was the protector of the people from the government has instead morphed into the most dangerous Fifth Column that this country has ever seen.

What is called a "Scandal" requires the public to know of it before it can become a scandal. Obama constantly said that there were no scandals during his administration. There were but none were reported so technically there were none. Under Biden, there are so many scandals going on that it is remarkable that none are being reported. The msm controls scandals. There are none unless they report them. Therefore Biden and his gang can lie every day and get away with it because it is not a reported event. Most Americans are "Head Line" news type of people who only read the bold print for their news. If the msm doesn't report the crimes committed by Biden, they never hear of them. Voter fraud is the number one crime that has been totally ignored by the msm and not only ignored but claimed to be totally false!

Although many people have worked on this problem and suffered major consequences for speaking out, efforts to secure the integrity of our elections have been few and meager.<br /><br />There ARE solutions, but our elected representatives in Washington have not had the courage and strength of character to employ them.<br /><br />The Democrats cannot win elections without extensive ballot fraud, and the Republicans don’t seem to care. Rampant fraud was known and exposed following the 2020 election. Uncorrected, they blatantly repeated their tactics last week.<br /><br />What did the Republicans do about it?<br /><br />The Constitution Party may appear small in numbers, but what we lack in size is made up in constitutional principles.</span></div><div class="entry-content" style="box-sizing: border-box; overflow: hidden; padding: 0px 20px 30px;"><h3 class="yiv8496529084p1" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; box-sizing: border-box; color: #182947; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 28px; letter-spacing: 0.5px; line-height: 34px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; text-transform: capitalize;">For Instance, Under The <strong style="box-sizing: border-box;">“Election Reform”</strong> Plank In The Constitution Party Platform, It Is Stated In Part,</h3><h5 class="yiv8496529084p1" style="background-color: #f9f9f9; box-sizing: border-box; color: #182947; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 20px; letter-spacing: 0.5px; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px 0px 20px; text-transform: capitalize;"><strong style="box-sizing: border-box;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box; color: #860918;">“In Order To Avoid Election Fraud, We Insist Electronic And Mechanical Voting Processes Provide A Clear, Auditable, And Verifiable Paper Trail.

I was five years old. What I learned years later: the use of nuclear weapons was on the table as a live option. We avoided Armageddon because President John F. Kennedy, not perfect by any means but overall a man of lucidity and sanity, was able to negotiate with Nikita Khrushchev. The Soviet leader, also not perfect by a long shot but also lucid and sane, agreed to remove Soviet missiles from our backyard: Cuba. <span><br /></span></span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Those watching also saw the difference between lucidity/sanity and psychopathy. Reportedly, Fidel Castro was livid. He told Khrushchev he would have preferred Armageddon to being excluded from the negotiations. Maybe there was a reason both Kennedy and Khrushchev excluded him? Do you think?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Only a psychopath would choose nuclear Armageddon over negotiation and pragmatic de-escalation, even if the latter leads to disempowerment and multipolarity.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">According to numerous observers, we’re now closer to a nuclear World War III than at any time since 1962. The octogenarian in the White House, moreover, is no John F. Kennedy, despite scripted stunts such as his appearing in Kyiv, Ukraine the other day to the sound of air raid sirens although there were no air raids going on.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Reviewing the relevant history: following the collapse of the Soviet Union, Western powers made agreements with Russia that NATO, a cold war product, would not expand eastward toward Russian territory. These were quickly violated, as Eastern European nations joined, one by one. Russia tolerated this. Until Vladimir Putin came along, the Russians had little choice. Their country was dysfunctional.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Now it isn’t, and its restoration to superpower status drives Russo-phobes nuts. This is the main reason “our” government has military bases in Russia’s backyard.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In Ukraine, in February 2014, the U.S. and NATO backed an engineered coup that ousted the democratically elected but pro-Russian Viktor Yanukovich. After three months of violent instability, a new election was held. Petro Poroshenko won. A businessman, Poroshenko was clearly a U.S./NATO puppet.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">By this time, Crimea had held a referendum in which voters on the Black Sea peninsula overwhelmingly elected to secede from Ukraine and join the Russian Federation. There was substantial support for a similar move in Ukraine’s eastern provinces of Donetsk and Luhansk by the majority populations of ethnic Russians. The Poroshenko regime forcibly quashed the effort. Fighting continued off and on for the rest of the decade. The Kyiv government instituted humiliating discriminatory measures against ethnic Russians. These included an injunction against speaking their native language in public.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Russia left Ukraine alone, but President Putin drew lines in the sand.

In 2021, he talked openly about the prospects of Ukraine applying for NATO membership. Then, in mid-February 2022, he attended the Munich Security Conference and publicly announced a plan to go nuclear.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">That was the last straw. Less than two weeks later — on February 24, one year ago — Putin invaded, intending to liberate the “breakaway” provinces and send a clear warning that a nuclear Ukraine would not be tolerated. According to the official Western corporate media narrative, this was an “unprovoked attack.” The narrative demonized Putin and made the fact-free claim that he planned to reclaim all the countries the Soviet Union had relinquished in his drive to build a new Russian Empire.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">More official narrative: Russia is losing in Ukraine, and losing badly. Simultaneously, however: the Russian army is murderous, wantonly killing civilians, bombing hospitals, and committing other atrocities.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The Bidenistas have already sent hundreds of millions to Ukraine because a Russian victory is “unthinkable.” Supporting Ukraine is clearly politically correct, as the multitudes of Ukrainian flags by virtue signalers all across the West testify.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">What the money going to Ukraine <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">won’t</em> do is help the growing population of homeless people in the U.S. as housing, rental costs, and prices for basic food staples skyrocket. It is not going towards repairing our collapsing infrastructure, or cleaning up the messes this has caused. Ask the people of E. Palestine, Ohio, if they could use some of that money right about now.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">They can’t look to Bidenista Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who owes his job, not to his qualifications — he has none — but to the fact that he’s gay. He is serving in an administration that places Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion above public health and safety concerns. The population of E. Palestine is mostly conservative white people who voted overwhelmingly for Trump. As a result, they’ve been effectively canceled.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Returning to Ukraine, who’s really winning? I’ll briefly hand my digital mike to Jeff Thomas, writing for <a href="https://internationalman.com/articles/they-wouldnt-really-go-nuclear-would-they/" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">Doug Casey’s International Man Communiqué</a>:</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Kiev has been continually desperate for more from NATO in order to survive, and the U.S. and other countries never seem to be offering enough material, advisors, and funding for Ukraine to win. Eventually, rumors began to leak out of Ukraine. Their casualties are eight to Russia’s one. The seasoned Ukrainian troops have been decimated. Kiev is barely surviving with green conscripts, outside contractors, and depleting resources. Meanwhile, Russia has built up a force of over 500,000 fresh troops that are well-trained and well-armed with substantial supply lines. A winter campaign is underway that’s expected to make short work of the collapsing Ukrainian defense.</span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">This comes from on-the-ground sources, not CNN or MSNBC or <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The New York Times,</em> or <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Washington Post</em>.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">I wonder how long it will be before a critical mass of Americans realizes that this war is just the latest thing they’ve been lied to about and with stakes much higher! With diplomatic relations between Russia and the U.S. deteriorating rapidly over the past year, and Putin just having suspended Russia’s participation in the START Treaty signed back in 2010 which caps the number of strategic nuclear warheads the countries can legally deploy, this is now the most dangerous faceoff since 1962.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Behind-the-scenes Bidenista / Deep State conversation seems to suggest that “limited nuclear war” is a live option.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Lunatic arch-neocon globalist Victoria Nuland, Bidenista Undersecretary of State (and a primary architect of the 2014 coup) has <a href="https://www.usnews.com/news/world/articles/2023-02-17/u-s-diplomat-says-ukrainian-strikes-on-military-targets-in-crimea-are-legitimate" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">stated</a> that Russian facilities in Crimea are “legitimate targets” — one of the very things Putin warned against! Small wonder he has accused the U.S. of trying to escalate the war!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">People like that are <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">loons</em> because they seem oblivious to the fact that Russia is <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">ahead</em> of the U.S. in nuclear technology. This should not surprise us. Russian high schools teach four years of math and science. Russian universities graduate engineers, not gender studies majors. I bet that among Russian faculty you’ll not find a single leftist goofball who says math is racist.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Nor is the Russian army headed by a Wokester who wants to understand “white rage.”</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">What are the Russians dead set against? The very thing we were against back in 1962! The establishment of bases capable of firing missiles able to reach Russian cities in a matter of minutes! Who can blame them for that, and for not trusting an international alliance (NATO) that breaks every agreement it makes?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">But would Putin allow the present situation to escalate, especially if Ukraine and countries like Finland (which also borders Russia) are admitted into the alliance?</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Putin is a pragmatist. He surely sees the consequences of pushing that first button. He’s holding a lot of the cards, moreover. The Russian economy is expanding. U.S.-led sanctions backfired, making Russia stronger and more independent. Russia and China are being <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">pushed</em> into an alliance that will control not just far more territory but will have a far larger population than exists in the West. It would constitute the largest economy in the world.

The new agreement between China and Saudi Arabia will effectively end the petrodollar. And the U.S. is not only broke but in debt beyond the ability to even pay the interest.</span></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Do you know who warned you that this could happen? Donald Trump, years ago.

Some official narratives are just <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">stupid</em>!), and given the usual denial, it is <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">possible</em> that the U.S./NATO axis will launch a tactical nuke somewhere inside Ukraine and blame Russia. A hysterical corporate media chorus will then call on all of Europe to stand against the insane Russians!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The problem, however: both the U.S. and Russia have pre-programmed missile systems. Watch the video I linked above. These computerized systems would take over, and in a matter of a few hours, devastate three regions: Europe, major U.S. cities, and Western Russia. Estimates are that 91.5 million would die immediately in the missile strikes, with added deaths from severe burns and radiation sickness, other injuries sustained in collapsed buildings, and eventual starvation following the loss of critical food supply lines. The death toll would quickly rise to well over 100 million.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">It would be the worst catastrophe in human history!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">I do not see how Western civilization could recover, especially if you factor in the psychological toll that would be taken on survivors many of whom would soon find themselves in brutal fights with other survivors over fast-dwindling supplies of food and clean water. <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Mad Max</em> would look like Mother Goose by comparison!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Not to mention the environmental impact. Particulate matter thrown high into the atmosphere could block out sunlight over much of the northern hemisphere for days, with continued disturbances causing a cold wave that could last several years.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Read <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road" target="_blank">Cormac McCarthy’s horrific, post-apocalyptic <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Road</em> (2006)</a>, and you’ll get the idea.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">I do not know what would happen with China, but if the Chinese either backed Russia or invaded Taiwan they would doubtless be pulled into World War III. The death rate would be even higher!</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Incidentally, I doubt anywhere in South America would be targeted. The southern hemisphere generally, with its separate atmospheric systems, would suffer far fewer environmental effects. But since southern hemispheric nations such as Chile, Brazil, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and others, are tied into global commercial networks, and since these would be decimated, all would face sudden economic disruption and probably spiral into a massive depression. No more cheap goods from China. Their people would learn to manufacture previously imported goods or do without.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>“<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">But none of this can happen!</em>” some will frantically respond. “<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Surely no one will be so stupid as to fire off that first nuke!</em>”</b></span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Go back and read my opening lines.

A Soviet KGB defector by the name of Anatoliy Golitsyn wrote two books, <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">New Lies For Old</em>, and <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Perestroika Deception</em>, trying to alert the American intelligence community and the American people to the plot.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">James Jesus Angleton, former head of counterintelligence for the Central Intelligence Agency, had taken Golitsyn’s allegations very seriously and this search eventually led to uncovering such notorious characters as FBI counterintelligence special agent Robert P. Hannsen, a Soviet/Russian mole inside the bureau. His record of treason spanned 22 years, from 1979 to 2001. Robert S. Mueller, the Russia-gate special counsel, became FBI director after Hannsen was caught. But Mueller then failed to reform the bureau to catch future spies.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Golitsyn’s charges had been ridiculed as a fantastic “Monster Plot” by skeptical CIA officials who thought the KGB incapable of planning and carrying out such a plan.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Now we know better.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Still, the disinformation persists, especially among so-called “conservatives” in the orbit of Tucker Carson and Stephen K.

This is not too surprising, since South Africa <a href="http://www.usasurvival.org/uploads/1/2/6/3/126369300/nelson_mandela_specal_report_pdf.pdf" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">went communist</a> under pressure from the West.

China, on the other hand, has managed to fool the West into financing its capitalist stage of development on the road to world communism.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">If DeSantis wants to be taken seriously on global affairs, he has to articulate why China and Russia both pose a threat to America and the world. He could begin by countering the <a href="https://www.liberationnews.org/psl-editorial-u-s-nato-responsible-for-one-year-of-needless-war-in-ukraine/" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">communist propaganda</a> that the expansion of NATO membership to countries on Russia’s border somehow provoked the Russians. In fact, the Budapest Memorandum of 1994, brokered by President Bill Clinton, included Russia’s promise to respect the territorial integrity of Ukraine, in exchange for sending its nuclear arsenal back to Moscow. Russia violated that agreement, leading to invasions of Ukraine in 2014 under Obama and Biden in 2022.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Ukraine is not a member of NATO but has every right to join.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Poland, an anti-communist nation, certainly is a NATO member. By supporting Ukraine, we support Poland and other nations, including the Republic of China on Taiwan, and South Korea, always in danger of communist aggression.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">DeSantis should understand that former President Reagan would never hesitate about addressing the communist threat.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">At the same time, as governor of Florida, a state full of refugees from communism, DeSantis should understand that the crisis stems in part from communist advances in the Western hemisphere.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The background is that, after Obama Secretary of State John Kerry declared in 2013 that the Monroe Doctrine was dead, Vladimir Putin traveled to Brazil, Argentina, Nicaragua, and Cuba. This wasn’t an accident. The Obama administration was inviting aggression against the U.S. and the invasion through the southern border. The Monroe Doctrine was supposed to protect U.S. national security interests in the Western hemisphere by prohibiting foreign meddling in America’s backyard. Since then, the situation has deteriorated.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Considering these facts, how does DeSantis play down the threat posed by Vladimir Putin?

Despite the very legitimate concerns regarding many of Trump’s decisions and actions, Trump retains his popularity with hardcore Republicans. Or so the argument goes.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Herewith are the counterarguments, focusing on the non-standard, that will prevail at the end of the day. In the spirit of the holidays, they are set to music as nine reasons Trump will never be the Republican nominee.</span></span></p><ol><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><em>Grover Cleveland</em>. Americans will tire of hearing that Grover Cleveland foreshadows Trump as the only president to hold office in non-consecutive terms. Trump is no Grover Cleveland, and the political climate of today is not the same as it was in 19th Century America. To boot, Cleveland was a popular Democrat, and at the time, he was only the third candidate to win the popular vote but lose the Electoral College to Republican William Harrison. Harrison won the nomination only as a fill-in after former Secretary of State James Blaine declined, and Harrison sealed the fate of his short-lived tenure by pushing for a high tariff regime, which was viewed as benefiting wealthy industrialists.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><em>Actual Precedent</em>.</span> American history is filled with examples of one-term presidents who subsequently failed to secure a second term. In the 19th century, John Tyler, Andrew Johnson, and Chester Arthur all failed to win re-nomination. In modern times, while no incumbent has been successfully primaried, the effect has been the same. When Estes Kefauver won in New Hampshire, Truman left the race. After Lyndon Johnson beat Eugene McCarthy by a slim 7 points in New Hampshire and Robert Kennedy entered the race, Johnson famously dropped out in a nationwide address. Gerald Ford, by the narrowest of margins, won the nomination over Reagan on the next to last day of the convention. In his comeback, Reagan decisively beat one-termer Jimmy Carter.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><em>The 11th Commandment</em>. President Reagan famously refused to bad-mouth fellow Republicans. Trump has followed the opposite path, attacking Republicans in his way, including Senate candidates who displeased him (“MAGA doesn’t vote for stupid people with big mouths”), and most disturbingly those he appointed: Attorney General Bill Barr (“weak and frightened”), Secretary of State Mike Pompeo (“very disloyal” if he were to run against Trump in 2024), Vice President Mike Pence (“Mike did not have the courage to act” in rejecting Electoral College results). The ad hominem attacks extended to supportive foreign leaders (“f*** him” when Netanyahu congratulated Biden) and even family members. (After Ivanka supported Barr on election testimony, “Ivanka Trump was not involved in looking at or studying, election results. She had long since checked out….”) Ivanka has publicly sworn off all involvement in the 2024 election. Politics requires friends and Trump has few friends.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" value="4"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><em>OODA Loop</em>.</span> Military strategy has developed a powerful, but deceptively simple doctrine known as Observe, Orient, Decide, Act, in a continuous loop, or the OODA loop. In 2016, Trump decisively won the OODA loop campaign, getting in the heads of his 16 rivals for the nomination, with unconventional attacks, jibes, nicknames, humor, 24/7 brashness, and, as it turns out, utter media domination. But a winning formula once has no staying power. The greatest counter to Trump’s tactics is the steely silence from DeSantis. Trump’s novel plan for 2016 is dead on arrival, and he has no replacement strategy. DeSanctimonious will not cut it this time. If anything, everyone is in Trump’s headspace, not least Ron DeSantis, akin to constant bombardment in military terms and the classic sign of a losing OODA loop strategy.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><em>Preference Cascade</em>.</span> A preference cascade is one of the great social observations which shows that at times, a prevailing orthodoxy will suddenly and unexpectedly fail. It happens when individuals discover all at once that their own seemingly unorthodox beliefs are widely shared. <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2016/02/25/donald-trump-supporters-brexit-preference-falsfication-2016-primaries-column/80856410/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Glenn Reynolds</a> of Instapundit was one of the first to recognize in 2016 that Trump was the beneficiary of a preference cascade. In 2024 no such surprise is possible. Trump himself, his ego, and his tactics are too well-known to allow for a shocking coalition. If anything, DeSantis will win the preference cascade this round, as it is more likely than not that Trump will lose decisively in the early primaries and never recover to mount a serious campaign.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><em>The Enemy of My Enemy</em>.</span> The dictum that the enemy of my enemy is my friend is the Democrat's only real strategy for 2024. Trump is the Democrats’ one hope for victory, the enemy of DeSantis they want and need. Hence the puzzle of criminal indictments. Push too hard and it may sink Trump from grabbing the nomination. Let the indictments linger and it angers core Democrats or may allow Trump to win. In Ron DeSantis, Republican voters have the complete solution, a true and simple opponent of the Democrats. They will take it.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><em>Trump as Independent</em>. </span> The Democrat fallback prayer is that Trump retaliates against ungrateful Republicans, definitionally true if they fail to nominate him, by running as an Independent. Republicans should have no fear on this point. It is incredibly difficult to mount an Independent campaign and it will not be supported after a failed primary season. More to the point, it is not in Trump’s DNA to run as a sure-fire loser. The better reason would be that he has genuine first-term accomplishments. Trump, in the end, will treasure his legacy of throwing an election to the Democrats. </span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><em>The Straw and the Camel</em>.</span> Just as one snowflake can ultimately set off an avalanche, it will never be known exactly which Trump mistake fatally harmed his candidacy. Let the historians fight. What is certain is that Trump regularly fuels controversy by attracting attention to himself over party and policy, never more so than the release of the Superhero NFTs. In the end, the decisive factor may simply be that Trump is limited to one term, making him a near lame duck from the outset.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><em>True Victory</em>.</span> Biden is unlikely to be the Democrat nominee in 2024. But nothing will make this as certain as a Trump primary defeat to DeSantis. There is zero chance the Democrats will risk a campaign debacle pitting Biden against DeSantis: a youthful, vigorous, first-rate intellect and highly successful governor. Trump could step aside with the satisfaction that in the end, he defeated Hillary and Biden, passing the torch to the next generation.</span></p></li></ol><p dir="ltr" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Many reputations lie in tatters prematurely burying Donald Trump. Yours truly does not want that shame. If it happens, the best defense is the wisdom that “Prediction is very difficult, especially if it’s about the future.”</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">So Republicans should be in high cheer this season, notwithstanding the poor midterm showing and the recent House Speaker turmoil. Trump will not be the nominee. DeSantis will be a stand-out, two-term president. Attention will turn to assure a meaningful Republican presidency. Winning the House and Senate. True fiscal rectitude. China disengagement. A 30-year nuclear power plan. Drill baby drill to supply Europe’s energy needs. A recentered America.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-4e9a1eff-7fff-4641-a1b5-d09953e8f893"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">‘Tis the season for hope and wishes.</span></span></p><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;

Dan Caldwell, vice president of foreign policy for Stand Together <a href="https://hannity.com/media-room/enough-speaker-seeker-biggs-blasts-blank-check-to-ukraine-enough-with-all-this/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">tweeted</a>, “Zelensky…has been very clear his goal is to get America’s sons and daughters to fight and die in the war in Ukraine.” Likewise, Fox News commentator Tomi Lahren <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/conservatives-slammed-bidens-joint-press-conference-zelenskyy-no-more-money-ukraine" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">tweeted</a>, “We can’t fight this war for you for eternity!!!” I’m not sure which war <em>we </em>are fighting for <em>them </em>and, to my knowledge, Zelensky has not requested anything beyond funding and weapons. “I assure you that Ukrainian soldiers can perfectly operate American tanks and planes themselves,” Zelensky <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/22/world/volodymyr-zelensky-grit-defiance/index.html" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">told</a> American lawmakers.

We’ve given them roughly $100 billion in piecemeal funding with many strings attached and, as Matthew Continetti <a href="https://freebeacon.com/columns/messenger-of-peace/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">pointed</a> out, in the grand scheme of our $31 trillion debt and our now-routine trillion-dollar budgets, this aid amounts to a rounding error. The United States government spent <a href="https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/americas-finance-guide/federal-spending/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">$6.27 trillion</a> in FY 2022, from which our Ukraine aid barely registers. Sure, we could have spent the money domestically…on such urgencies as <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/epa-ap-joe-biden-washington-tammy-duckworth-b2259663.html" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">“environmental justice”</a> programs, <a href="https://townhall.com/tipsheet/rebeccadowns/2022/12/22/another-target-of-rep-chip-roys-well-deserved-wrath-aocs-pet-project-n2617481" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">transgender youth</a> programs, and further <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/20/politics/spending-bill-congress-omnibus/index.html" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; outline: 0px;">FBI investigations</a> into <s>concerned parents</s> domestic terrorism, all of which Mitch McConnell helped pass in the latest leftist smorgasbord omnibus package. Given the choice, that money is better spent kneecapping Russia than it is surgically mutilating children. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><em><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>UKRAINE IS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS</b></span></em></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The mirage that we can isolate ourselves from the happenings of the world is one we’ve entertained before, most consequentially on Dec. 6, 1941, and Sept. 10, 2001. Subsequent events were assumed to have shattered that mirage, but, alas, it appears difficult to eradicate. This is not the bugle call of the neocon fever dream demanding all war all the time everywhere. Rather, we need to pick and choose our battles carefully but assertively and, when possible, fight them through proxies. We did this across the globe for the entirety of the Cold War, as did our enemies. And every country in which we fought a proxy war could justifiably be considered “none of our business.” Yet you’d be hard-pressed to find a Republican, then or now, who criticized Ronald Reagan’s decision to support anticommunist armies in Latin America, or other paramilitary efforts to contain communism in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe. And unlike democratic Ukraine, most of these allied governments were unabashed dictatorships and Islamist theocracies. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Austria in 1938 was “none of our business,” too. Afghanistan in the 1990s was “none of our business.” Except they were. You might not be interested in totalitarianism, but totalitarianism is interested in you. Our experience with domestic leftists should have us beyond convinced of this reality. Freedom and tyranny are not static entities; one grows or shrinks in inverse proportion to the other. We can choose to fight it when it’s weak, or be forced to fight it (or submit to it) when it’s strong. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><em><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>THIS COULD ESCALATE INTO NUCLEAR WAR</b></span></em></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">To news last December that we were sending Patriot missile systems (mind you, purely <em>defensive</em> weapons), Beege Welborn at <em>Hot Air</em> <a href="https://hotair.com/tree-hugging-sister/2022/12/13/say-what-patriot-missiles-to-ukraine-n517593" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">warned</a>, “We’d all pay. Dearly.” ... if said systems were used to down a Russian plane. But many Russian planes have been downed since the war’s inception, without a single Russian nuke obliterating an American city, or any American anywhere, in reciprocity. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">That this war involves Russia itself rather than a proxy doesn’t change the calculus. In Vietnam, the NVA was armed far more lavishly by the Russians and Chinese than in Ukraine is currently armed by us. In Afghanistan, we armed the Mujahideen against the Soviets for nearly a decade. And for the record, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-43500299" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">in 2018</a>, Putin was caught smuggling large caches of weapons to the Taliban for use against us. This happened without us nuking each other.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">For all his saber-rattling, Putin knows that a direct conflict with the United States would quickly end his rule. And he knows that a nuclear conflict with the United States would quickly end his beloved Russia and its supposed cultural superiority. If Putin was going to use nukes, he would have done so by now, and he would have nuked Ukraine rather than the United States. But Putin is not going to nuke anybody, not because of any moral qualms, but because it’s the surest way he’ll lose everything precious to him. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><em><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>IF DEMOCRATS AND NEOCONS SUPPORT IT, WE SHOULD OPPOSE IT</b></span></em></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">I won’t deny there’s an off-putting sleaziness associated with finding common ground with McConnell, Biden, and the rest of the deckhands of the <em>Crimson Permanent Assurance.</em> Disagreeing with the Democrats, without even knowing what the issue is, is a good bet 99.99% of the time. And whatever their motives are regarding Ukraine, surely they are not the defense of freedom in the face of brute tyranny. But we can do the right thing for the right reasons, despite them doing the right thing for the wrong reasons. We fought Naziism alongside the Soviets. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Napoleon is thought to have issued the maxim: '<a href="https://quoteinvestigator.com/2010/07/06/never-interfere/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">never interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake</a>.' For two decades, Putin has been playing five-dimensional chess while our civilian and military leaders still struggle to figure out Candyland. But his Ukraine invasion was a grave miscalculation, uncharacteristic for him, and one from which he cannot extract himself while saving face. He has spent the year digging his hole ever deeper, with no end in sight, all the while exposing the once-feared Russian military for the ineffective husk it really is. Even if the war ended today, his reconstituted Soviet empire remains a chimerical pipe dream. The Russian military has been decimated. It now relies on Iran and North Korea for weaponry. Russia’s best and brightest have either fled the country or decomposed in Ukrainian mud. Putin has lost over 100,000 troops along with 300,000 wounded in less than a single year. Those are world war-level casualties. Why would we interrupt him?</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The Ukraine War isn’t an “endless” war. It’s been a year. In Realpolitik, Ukraine is just the next proxy army fighting the latest Cold War battle so that we don’t have to. And Ukraine has performed beyond anyone’s expectations. Maybe that’s because, as Americans, our expectations are so dismal. We expect our media to openly sympathize with the enemy, and to declare a “quagmire” any war in which American boots have been on the ground in excess of ten minutes. We expect our woke Pentagon clowns to “fight” using obsolete rules of engagement written in 1949 and to win the “hearts and minds” of our enemies rather than kill them. We expect our elected leaders to trade captured enemy generals for American traitors, and to abandon impenetrable air bases deep in enemy territory for no strategic reason whatsoever. So if we can fund a war fought by Ukraine rather than a war fought by America with Gen. Mark Milley and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin at the genderfluid helm, my money is on the former.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">To Ukrainians, the war is about Ukraine. To the rest of the world, the war is about Russia. It’s about Russian intentions, capabilities, expansionism, willpower, and the future. And it’s about Putin’s obsession with, and insistence on, an eternal Manichean struggle against the West. In speech after speech, both before and after his invasion of Ukraine, he rails not against the supposed neo-Nazis lurking in neighboring states but <a href="https://www.aa.com.tr/en/russia-ukraine-war/putin-says-west-tries-to-contain-formation-of-multipolar-world/2662341" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">against</a> Western “hegemony,” <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2022/oct/27/russia-ukraine-war-live-news-kyiv-region-and-zaporizhzhia-hit-by-fresh-strikes-local-officials-say" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">against</a> the U.S. dollar, <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/national-security/3709926-vladimir-putins-jihad-against-the-west/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">against</a> colonialism (at least the non-Russian variety), and the like.

Far from being “cornered,” he has successfully invaded Chechnya (1999) and Georgia (2008), stolen the Crimean peninsula from Ukraine (2014) and installed puppet governments in Belarus and other former Soviet republics. Is there any reason to think that if we let Putin win this war, that he would stop there? Remember what we conservatives <em>used to</em> say about the dangers of appeasement?</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">This is the pro-Ukraine argument in a very small nutshell. There are undoubtedly many rational counterarguments, in which I am sincerely interested and will gladly concede any and all valid points. But shrieking <em><b>NEOCON STOOGE!!!</b></em> not only leaves my argument intact but also exposes the vacuity of the counterargument. Conservatives can passionately debate issues and, if need be, agree to disagree. Conservatism is a big tent, in which there is enough room for both the pro-Ukrainers and anti-Ukrainers. Anyone insistent on administering purity tests is in the wrong tent. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><em><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVYhGFFef9U" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; outline: 0px;"><b><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">ABC News video, via YouTube</span></b></a></em></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><b><u><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">Comments</span></u></b> </p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span face="-apple-system, "segoe ui", sans-serif" style="background-color: white;">If the US government is fighting for freedom in Ukraine why aren't they fighting for it here?

Zelensky has already fired many of his top people due to corruption and stealing not only some of the cash but weapons that are then sold on the world black market. As Biden has shown, he has to be beaten over the head to agree with any new weapons system requested by Zelensky but he usually gives in. This author says there are no US troops there so don't worry. But many of the systems that are requested take months or years to become proficient at and this will eventually require US troops to man. The only way that the UK can win or get a draw is by attrition of Russian forces. Biden just refused a request for cluster bombs which is one of the best attrition weapons available. He will cave in a few weeks.</span></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><b>***</b></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><br /></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><b><span style="font-family: verdana;

Two of America’s most noble presidents, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln, whom Presidents’ Day honors most especially, are routinely scrutinized by the vandals running through our country and institutions. Why?<span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The two most consequential presidents are the ones whom they woke to despise most. Washington is the “Father” of the United States. But what America is he the father of? The America of liberty, the rule of law, and defender of freedom, or the America of racism, white supremacy, and historical injustices? Likewise, Lincoln held the union together, is remembered as the Great Emancipator, and ensured that a united America would stride into the next century in which the United States would be the great bastion of freedom against the totalitarianism of modernity. Or was he guilty of perpetuating the sins of the past as is now becoming trendy to assert?</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The hatred of Washington is very straightforward. Humans live by stories. Because we live by stories, Washington is the central figure in whom two stories of America can be told: the America of liberty, justice, and the rule of law or America of racism and injustice.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">While it is fashionable to deride critics as rewriting history, the truer understanding is that critics want to tell another story because history is alive through the stories we tell. The 1619 Project and other woke ideologues want to tell a story in which the America of liberty, justice, and the rule of law is replaced by the America of slavery, injustice, and racism. Washington stands on this crossroad because he is the first president after the Constitution’s ratification -- Washington must either be understood as a champion of liberty and equality or a complicit (if not explicit) defender of oppression, injustice, and white supremacy. The woke to choose the latter story.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Hating Lincoln has become a newer fad, but for reasons understandable once the woke ideology is understood. At its core, woke ideology hates everything to do with America --a historical America, and the America of today which is the product of that historical legacy. Furthermore, in its hatred of everything to do with America, it celebrates everything not American: the alien, the foreign, the other. Lincoln need not apply.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Lincoln, because he represents the historic America, because he advanced the cause of Manifest Destiny <a href="https://www.wkkf.org/news-and-media/article/2013/02/lincoln-no-hero-to-native-americans" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">at the expense of indigenous tribes</a>, and because he represents the supposed “<a href="https://ncte.org/blog/2020/11/atticus-finch-abraham-lincoln-imagination-white-educators/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">white savior</a>” complex, is also someone who needs to be destroyed. In fact, Democrats in D.C. and in other states <a href="https://www.npr.org/2020/12/29/951206414/statue-of-lincoln-with-freed-slave-at-his-feet-is-removed-in-boston" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">have already removed</a> statues of Lincoln and <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/democrats-demand-removal-lincoln-emancipation-memorial-dc" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">want to remove more statues of Lincoln</a>. Lincoln, therefore, in the story the woke to tell, represents the continuation of the system born from Washington, the Founding Fathers, and America’s colonial heritage which the woke proclaim is bad, bad, bad.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><img alt="" src="https://www.americanthinker.com/images/bucket/2023-02/244207_5_.jpg" style="border: 0px; float: right; height: 331px; margin: 5px; max-width: 100%; width: 450px;" /><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">This story of America as an oppressor writ large is pernicious on many levels. First, it inculcates a spirit of desecration into the hearts and souls of the next generation. Nothing can be built on hatred; hatred only destroys. Second, this story destroys individuality and agency by flattening everyone to historic actions which we are but the outgrowth expression of. It is meant to destroy notions of individual liberty and freedom by saying we are guilty of past actions or victims of past actions. Third, it negates the heroic sacrifices Americans have made, from settlement to today, in the advancement of liberty and justice for all -- both in America and for the world.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Presidents’ Day matters because it is an opportunity for us to honor those presidents who helped create a country where a constitution of liberty and the human spirit of ingenuity and freedom could be harnessed, unleashed, and cultivated. If John Lennon wanted us to imagine a utopian world, let us imagine a world without the United States. Let us imagine a world where the United States didn’t exist or the union wasn’t preserved and the totalitarianism of the twentieth century couldn’t be challenged and defeated with the United States leading the crusade for liberty.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Americans need to reclaim the story of the United States as a country where the advancement of liberty, justice, and equality is part and parcel of our historical experience and mission. The United States has, and is, a country where a more perfect union is constantly becoming a truer reality. The United States has, and is, a country where the heart and soul of human liberty are nurtured and nourished. Washington and Lincoln stand as exemplars of inspiration in this regard, presidents who helped ensure this could become reality. We walk in their footsteps.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">The attack on America’s presidents is an attack on the understanding we have of ourselves and what story guides our hearts and souls. Presidents’ Day is a reminder of what is good in America, the America of liberty that Washington so valiantly fought for, and the America of liberty and equality that Lincoln so nobly stood for. That America would prove indispensable for the conflicts of the twentieth century where the human heart and soul were nearly destroyed by the totalitarian evils that so viciously and violently assailed the world.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">We must ensure that America doesn’t slip into totalitarian temptation. I mentioned that hatred cannot build but only destroy since it lacks the nurturing spirit of love. The totalitarianism that this noble nation helped to defeat in the past century was built on hatred -- hatred of Jews, hatred of capitalists, hatred of Christians, hatred of everyone not Aryan or communist. Washington and Lincoln stand to remind us of the power of patriotic love and duty, and how patriotic love and duty can, and will, lead to a new birth of freedom. In honoring them, we honor how patriotism nurtures the goodness in us that is called upon to make sacrifices for others.</span></p><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><div style="text-align: center;"><div data-mce-style="line-height: normal;" style="line-height: normal;

When the king sat on his throne which was in the Palace, in the third year of his reign, he made a feast. He invited all the nobles and princes of the Provinces. The feast lasted 180 days. He showed all his riches to his servants. When these days had expired he made a feast in the king's garden for all the people that were in the Palace, and it lasted seven days. He gave them drink in vessels of gold and Royal wine in abundance. The drinking was the king's law and none did compel, for the king had appointed that every man should do his pleasure. Also, the queen made a feast for the women in the Royal House of the king. </div><div style="text-align: left;"> When the heart of the king was merry with wine he commanded the seven chamberlains (servants) to bring Vash-ti, the queen, before the king to show the people the queen's beauty. When the queen refused to come the king was very angry and he said to the Wisemen who knew the law: "What shall we do to the queen? She has not obeyed the law and has not performed the commandment of the King!" Then Memucan, one of the servants, answered the king: "The queen has not done wrong only to the king, but also to all the princes. For this deed of the queen shall come abroad to all women so that they shall despise their husbands when this is reported." S0 again, the king demanded Queen Vash-ti to come before him. But she did not come. </div><div style="text-align: left;"> The servant Memucan spoke again: "If it pleases the king, let there go a Royal Commandment from the king and let it be written among the Persians and Medes that Queen Vash-ti will come no more before the king and give her Royal Estate to another that is better than she! When the king's decree shall be published throughout all the empire (127 Provinces from India to Ethiopia) all the wives shall give honor to their husbands." So the Decree pleased the king and the king did according to Memucan's word. Letters were sent into all the Provinces, to every people in their language, that every man should bear rule in his own house and it should be published according to the language of all people.</div></span></h1><div style="text-align: left;"><p style="line-height: 19.5pt; margin-bottom: .25in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0in 0.25in;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Esther's Feast: Chapter 2 of

Benjamite, who had been carried from Jerusalem with the captivity whom
Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon had carried away. He brought Hadassah

go before the king she took nothing but what the king's servants appointed.
Esther obtained favor in the sight of all. The king loved Esther above
all the women and she obtained grace and favor in his sight, more than all the
virgins. So the king set the Royal Crown on Esther's head and made her
queen in the place of Vash-ti. Then the king made a great feast and named
it "Esther's Feast." He made a release to all the Provinces

(servants who kept the door) were wroth and sought to lay hands on the
king. This thing was known to Mordecai, who told it to Esther, the Queen,

Mordecai bowed not to Haman. Then the king's servants that were at the

the king's commandment came there was great mourning among the Jews.
There was fasting and weeping and wailing among many. So Esther's
maids came and told her. Then was Queen Esther exceedingly grieved.
She sent a raiment to clothe Mordecai to take away his sackcloth (mourning
clothes) but Mordecai refused the raiment. Then Esther called
Hatach (one the king appointed to attend the queen). She gave Hatach a
commandment to learn why Mordecai was in mourning clothes. </b></span></p><p style="line-height: 19.5pt; margin-bottom: .25in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in; margin: 0in 0in 0.25in;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b> So Hatach went
to Mordecai unto the streets of the city, which was before the king's Gate.
Mordecai told Hatach of all that had happened and of the sum of money
that Haman had promised to pay to the king's treasure in order to destroy the
Jews. Also, Mordecai gave Hatach a copy of the writing that was given to
destroy the Jews in order to show it to Esther and charge her that she should
go to the king to make supplication unto him and to make a request before him
for her people.

man or woman, shall come unto the king into the inner court who is not called
will be put to death unless the king will hold out his Golden Sceptre that he
may live. I have not been called to come into the king for 30 days."
So it was told to Mordecai of Esther's words. Again, Mordecai
answered Esther: "Think not, Esther, that you shall escape in the
king's house more than all the Jews! For if you hold your peace then
shall deliverance arise from another place? You and your father's house
shall be destroyed! WHO KNOWS WHETHER YOU HAVE COME TO THE KINGDOM FOR

Esther standing in the court that she obtained favor in his sight and he held
out to Esther the Golden Sceptre that was in his hand. So Esther drew
near and touched the top of the scepter. Then the king said:
"What is your request? It shall be given, even to the half of

home he called for his wife Zeresh and his friends and Haman told them of the
glory of his riches and the multitude of his children and how the king had
promoted him and advanced him above the princes and servants of the king.
He told them how Esther, the queen, did let no man but Haman come to the

the king's chamberlains (keepers of the door) sought to lay hands on King

text-align: left;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: x-large;"> I guess you could call this a friendship when people come together on this ocean for the same goal to help one another to survive, unfortunately, those who do not have anything to offer become a burden to the existence of everyone on the life raft of life so we must remove them from our life raft and let them go on their own, unfortunately like any drowning man at sea they will try to drown you and take what you have acquired to survive, and this is where the battle for survival begins and ends.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";

text-align: left;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: x-large;">They wait until they outnumber their victims or they have more arms to overthrow their victims, if they tried to disarm you or tried to convince you to disarm yourself and there is no need for you to have weapons to defend yourself, these are the signs that there are Pirates among you, in our society and in our world today the pirates are the members of the American Bar Association and the religions and the Corporation that they are attached to, these are the ones the individuals who live by the rules of cannibalism, there is no greater threat to the human race to mankind than these cannibals. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";

Cannibalism is their religion and their way of life everyone else is food and a resource for them.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-align: left;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></span><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: x-large;">Our religion is in our Holy Bible it is the moral Compass for us to survive and to be able to identify the Pirates of life, the founding fathers of this nation when writing the documents that created and declared this nation that gave us guidance from Christianity and the Holy Bible it is the one thing that we must not stray from, or these individuals will surely divide us and eat our substance one at a time, that's why the Founding Fathers had a motto one Nation Under God indivisible with Liberty and Justice for all.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-align: left;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: x-large;"> If we are indivisible as a people and if we cannot be divided we will always defeat the Pirates, that's why the founding fathers created another motto WE THE PEOPLE in order to create a more perfect union, and to establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, and provide for the common defense and the general welfare and our prosperity, we the people do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; text-align: left;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></span><span face="Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: x-large;">Our founding fathers created the foundation for our nation in our national religion to ensure that if we should stay on this path our country could never be defeated, and our national religion is based on the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States of America and our Bill of Rights, it is the lamp and the path that all Americans should follow. If you have never read these documents you are working against your own best interest as a people, and you are making our nation and our world vulnerable again to the evil cannibals and pirates of the world.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";

As I pointed out earlier, an act of the legislature repugnant to the <a href="https://priceoflibertyeternaly.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.html#.Y-wvN3bMLIU" target="_blank">Constitution</a> is void. Just think of how many of your tax dollars are used to fund these illegal departments and agencies. Even worse, how much of your liberty is being trampled by the illegal regulations coming out of these illegal departments? This brings up another topic I would like to add to this discussion: Federal regulations.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and a House of Representatives.</span></em></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><a href="https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/constitution-transcript#1-1" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 1</span></span></a></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">All of the United State’s legislative power is vested solely in Congress.

When an executive branch department or agency writes “regulations” with the force of law, those acts are not made pursuant to the Constitution, so they are not the supreme law of the land and are void. Just imagine what life would be like without the millions of pages of federal legislation and thousands of federal employees being used to eating our substance.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">I want to thank my “#1 Fan” for this question. I think it shows that there are still people out there who are concerned about what the Constitution says, and about keeping the government it created within its legal bounds. Once again, I hope we see that the problems in Washington, D.C. are not simply the politicians or the bureaucrats, but the compliance of We the People with the illegal acts coming from that “wretched hive of scum and villainy.”</span></p><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;

They had come from a nation that was tyrannical, restricted how they could worship, and even limited the type of Bible they could read. At that time the only authorized version was the King James version. The pilgrims favored the Geneva Bible because it was written in a more understandable manner. From the days of the Jamestown settlement until the signing of the Declaration of Independence the citizens of America were dedicated to their faith and that included the people that they put into places of authority. They didn’t just put anybody in a position of authority like we do today, Joe Biden and John Fetterman as examples of people who are not cognizant enough to dress themselves let alone be responsible Senators or Presidents. They followed the biblical guidelines God set out in Exodus 18:21 </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966;"> <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens</em></span>.</span><span style="background-color: white;"> Notice that He requires godly men in positions of authority. We are far from that today and because we have some ‘Christians’ that won’t vote for the lesser of two evils don’t vote at all and we usually get the worse of two evils because of that.</span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">One of the Founders made an appeal to his fellow men concerning the need for clergy before the start of the Congressional day: </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">Elias Boudinot, President of Congress; signed the peace treaty to end the American Revolution, was the first attorney admitted to the U. S. Supreme Court Bar; was a framer of the Bill of Rights and Director of the U. S. Mint stated before the First Provincial Congress of New Jersey: “[L]et us enter on this important business under the idea that we are Christians on whom the eyes of the world are now turned… Let us earnestly call and beseech Him, for Christ’s sake, to preside in our councils. . . . We can only depend on the all-powerful influence of the Spirit of God, Whose Divine aid and assistance it becomes us as a Christian people most devoutly to implore. Therefore, I move that some minister of the Gospel be requested to attend this Congress every morning . . . in order to open the meeting with prayer.”</em></span><span style="background-color: white;">[2] They truly believed, rightfully so, that the need to appeal to God for direction was imperative. George Washington relied on God’s assistance all through the Revolutionary War. He stated: </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“When I contemplate the interposition of Providence, as it was visibly manifested, in guiding us through the Revolution, in preparing us for the reception of a general government, and in conciliating the goodwill of the People of America towards one”</em></span><span style="background-color: white;"> And when he finished his service to America he stated: </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“I consider it an indispensable duty to close this last solemn act of my official life by commending the interests of our dearest country to the protection of Almighty God and those who have the superintendence of them into His Holy keeping.”</em></span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">There have only been two presidents in my lifetime that have verbally announced their faith in God.

Clinton quoted a verse now and then and Obama referenced scripture without knowing what he was talking about and Jimmy Carter, who taught Sunday school at the Baptist church he attended, never, to my recollection stated his faith.

The Democrats with the help of some RINOs passed what they call the Respect for Marriage Act which, as is typical of Democrat legislation, does the exact opposite of its title. Same-sex ‘marriage’ is not marriage as God refers to it. The left is always complaining about conservatives wanting to ‘legislate morality’ but the left is consistently legislating immorality. More proof of their double standard.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">The Founders established a nation that required godly men and women to make it successful. John Adams stated: </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”</em></span> </span><span style="background-color: #d0e0e3;">Today’s politicians have very little regard for what our Founders intended.</span><span style="background-color: white;"> <b>Thomas Jefferson stated:</b> </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966;">“The most sacred of the duties of a government [is] to do equal and impartial justice to all citizens.”</span><span style="background-color: white;"> We do not see that today. Democrats do what they want as we saw this summer with the illegal protesting at the homes of conservative Supreme Court justices. Attorney General Merrick Garland refused to arrest any of the protesters but commanded that parents showing up at school board meetings to protest the trash schools are teaching our children were to be treated as domestic terrorists. That’s not equal treatment.</span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #d0e0e3;">Looking back at the actions of Eric Holder he refused to enforce laws <span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">he</em></span> didn’t like, which was illegal, and the fact that he was running guns to the Mexican cartels that were used to kill Americans and refused to supply the documentation to Congress and was held in contempt of Congress but was never prosecuted for it. Steve Bannon was found in contempt of Congress and was prosecuted for it. Double standard? Of course. Democrats seem to be immune from obeying the laws.</span><span style="background-color: white;"> Our Founders would never have allowed this.

The freedoms we once had we no longer have. Think about it. At the turn of the 1900s, we didn’t have to ask the government permission to buy property, fish, hunt, buy a gun, build a home, start a business, and a whole slew of other things that we can’t do now without the government’s approval. Most of these rights were taken from us without our approval, they were just taken. We the people did nothing to stop it either. The government saw a way to slowly gain control and has been doing so for the last hundred-twenty five years.</span></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>Franklin also described what a politician’s job was and his pay for that job:</b> “They are of the people and return again to mix with the people, having no more durable preeminence than the different grains of sand in an hourglass. Such an assembly cannot easily become dangerous to liberty. They are the servants of the people, sent together to do the people’s business, and promote the public welfare; their powers must be sufficient, or their duties cannot be performed. They have no profitable appointments, but a mere payment of daily wages, such as are scarcely equivalent to their expenses; so that, having no chance for great places, and enormous salaries or pensions, as in some countries, there is no intriguing or bribing for elections.” Notice that their only pay is a daily wage. Today’s politicians get elected and then become millionaires. Both parties are guilty. I knew an aide to Senator Everett Dirksen and he told me that he was in politics from 1933 to 1969 and was worth $250,000 when he began his political carrier and was worth $250,000 when he died in 1969. I don’t believe that there is one politician today that can say that. Trump lost a billion dollars while in office and took no pay either. That is a statesman, not a politician.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;">What we have today in DC and even in local positions are people that get rich passing laws that benefit corporations instead of the American people. They get insider information and trade stocks and make millions like what Nancy Pelosi has done. Been in Congress for thirty-five years and is worth around $120 million. </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">The first female Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi has a net worth of $120 million. Pelosi’s drastic growth, from an initial $21.7 million in 2009, is attributed to stock gains and smart investments. Her husband reported raking in $1 million to $5 million in 2010 from a sale of Apple stocks. The couple also has a commercial property in San Francisco and a home in St. Helena, California, each valued between $5 million and $25 million. She also has a stake in some valuable residential real estate in Sacramento</em></span>.</span><span style="background-color: white;">[1] Notice that she’s increased her wealth by $100,000 mostly through stock trades. Her husband also has an exclusive contract to sell any government building that the government wants to be sold. Why is that allowed? Are they the only ones? No. </span><span style="background-color: #ffd966; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">A bipartisan group of legislators violated a federal law aimed at preventing Congressional representatives from using inside information to enrich themselves.</em></span></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Under the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (<a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/112th-congress/senate-bill/2038" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">STOCK) Act</a> of 2012, members of Congress are required to report financial trades worth more than $1,000 that they, their spouses or their dependent children made within 30 to 45 days of the transactions.</span></em></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">However, 71 members of Congress failed to properly report their trades, in violation of the STOCK Act, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/congress-stock-act-violations-senate-house-trading-2021-9" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration-line: none; transition-duration: 0.2s; transition-property: color, background-color, border-color; transition-timing-function: linear;">Business Insider</a> reported on Monday.</span></em></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">“Congress passed the law a decade ago to combat insider trading and conflicts of interest among their own members and force lawmakers to be more transparent about their personal financial dealings,” according to Business Insider.</span></em></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: #ffd966;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“But many members of Congress have not fully complied with the law.

That’s why we are subjected to the so-called vaccines. Deaths worldwide are up over 30% since the introduction of the vaccine.

For example, if John Smith and Joe Brown recklessly damage your car, you expect Smith and Brown (or their insurance companies) to pay for the repairs. Normally, you would not expect the repairs to be financed by the entire town in which you live: That would make no sense.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">What if Joe Brown died shortly after the accident? Would you expect his children or grandchildren to pay you? Probably not.

William T. Sherman signed an order reserving 400,000 acres of Confederate land, to be used for the allotment of 40 acres to each of thousands of former slaves. Unfortunately, after Republican Abraham Lincoln was assassinated, Democrat Andrew Johnson became president, the offer was rescinded, and the land was reclaimed. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">After the promise of 40 acres was withdrawn there was no large-scale and meaningful program of reparations offered until the 1960s. That is when the nation created affirmative action programs, community reinvestment programs, and augmented welfare programs. Many people believe that those programs were a form of national reparations, and one such person is a Black scholar named <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/reparations-for-black-america-already-happened-black-scholar-tells-don-lemon" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">John McWhorter</a>. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><b>In an interview with CNN’s Don Lemon, he said:</b></span></p><blockquote style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; margin: 10px 40px; padding: 10px 10px 10px 20px;"><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><i><span style="background-color: #ffd966; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">“Affirmative action was reparations.

How do we calculate the cost to our society when thousands of students with relatively high college admission test scores are replaced by students with lower scores?</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">We can, however, estimate the cost of welfare programs, and the disparity in the amount of such benefits given to black Americans versus white Americans.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">In the view of John McWhorter, the government’s “War on Poverty” programs have cost <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/reparations-for-black-america-already-happened-black-scholar-tells-don-lemon" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">$23 trillion</a> since 1965, with an estimated $1.3 trillion in 2022 alone. In addition, there are state and local welfare programs that cost hundreds of billions of dollars each year, with an <a href="https://www.urban.org/policy-centers/cross-center-initiatives/state-and-local-finance-initiative/state-and-local-backgrounders/public-welfare-expenditures#Question1Welfare" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">estimated $744 billion</a> spent in 2019.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">By using published welfare tables from Health & Human Services (FYE 2021, <a href="https://www.acf.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/documents/ofa/fy2021_characteristics.pdf" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Table 10</a>, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families) and population estimates from the <a href="https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US/PST045221" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">U.S. Census Bureau</a>, we can roughly estimate that a black family is about 4.7 times more likely to receive federal welfare benefits than a white family. Using those ratios and McWhorter’s $23 trillion estimated cost of the War on Poverty, we can conclude that, since 1965, black families have received more welfare benefits than white families in an amount equal to several trillions of dollars. I believe that it would be appropriate to consider this disparity in welfare benefits to be reparations since those payments were designed to alleviate suffering from prior socioeconomic disadvantage due to racism.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Thus, people who advocate for the payment of reparations should consider the cost of affirmative action programs, and they should carefully calculate the disparate cost of all types of federal and state welfare programs. These programs may fully or partially satisfy any obligation for reparations.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-weight: 700;"><em><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">How much should slavery-era corporations pay?</span></em></span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Some companies, or their predecessors, benefitted from the slave trade.

Are we to believe that, after 1960, Republicans embraced slavery, Jim Crow, and the Klan? In its entire history, the Republican Party has never supported those horrors— not for a single moment. But the Democrat party did— enthusiastically, for nearly 150 years.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">To be fair, modern-day Democrats have no more <em>individual</em> responsibility for things that took place 150 years ago than do Republicans. However, it seems to me that their political party has a great deal of institutional responsibility.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">For that reason, the Democratic Party should develop a plan to identify the specific Black citizens to whom it owes reparations. Presumably, not all Black citizens will qualify. After all, many had no ancestors in America during the slave era, many did not experience significant racism, and thousands of Black Americans are very successful, economically. It might be determined, for example, that Barack and Michelle Obama are not appropriate recipients for reparations.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">For people who qualify for reparations, the Party should consider paying a very modest amount of at least $50 million, starting this year. It won’t provide very much in the way of compensation, but it is a start, and it is a way for the Democrat party to show that it recognizes its responsibility for a sordid past. The Party should continue with annual payments that increase as much as possible until it feels that a proper level of compensation has been reached.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather;

Since the opinions expressed were formed while Democrats were in control of most of the federal government, and the country's major population centers, this reflects particularly poorly on them. <span></span></span></p><a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"> Republicans aren’t blameless, but Democrat leadership is an oxymoron.</span><p></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">At least Republicans have political diversity, as evidenced in the manner of extracting concessions from Speaker Kevin McCarthy, whereas Democrat authoritarians abhor conscientious dissent. Their conformity is ironic, considering that <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2023/01/09/u-s-congress-continues-to-grow-in-racial-ethnic-diversity/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Congress has more racial diversity than ever</a>; in fact, 133 members identify as non-white. Most of them are Democrats, and some of them are in the so-called Squad.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Squad member antics after Ilan Omar was voted off the House Foreign Affairs Committee were unbecoming. Rashida Tlaib and AOC were the antitheses of role models as their hysterical deportment harkened back to old stereotypes. Their petulant behavior suggests that their liberal college professors never challenged them to think critically, but encouraged them to stumble onto the grievance bandwagon.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Leadership in the wider caucus is also on hiatus. Inflation is sticky, but rather than make sound fiscal choices, they spend like drunken Democrats. When not pursuing Modern Monetary Policy, they engender a culture of fear by imposing soul-destroying DEI and ESG imperatives. It’s further evidence, in addition to Biden’s contemptible cabinet, that their definition of diversity is not necessarily a strength. Instead, today’s demented Dems foster resentment and division and are a big reason that poor leadership ranks as <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/alisondurkee/2023/01/30/americans-think-countrys-biggest-problem-is-the-government-itself-poll-finds/?sh=7760798c3ccc" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">the top problem facing the nation</a>.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"><a href="https://hbr.org/2018/01/what-self-awareness-really-is-and-how-to-cultivate-it" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Research shows</a> that grandiose narcissists lack self-awareness, exaggerate their skills and experience, and are not the best leaders. Unfortunately, today’s Democrat leaders are riddled with grandiose narcissism as they determine to save us from ourselves. One example: it’s ludicrous that those so full of hot air would contemplate banning <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/first-biden-came-gas-stove-next-democrats-come-gas-heater" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">our gas stoves</a>, and clean gas in general. They are more bullies wielding a cudgel than leaders with a gavel. Such forceful tactics may work in battle or other emergency situations where there’s no time for debate, but not in a government of checks and balances designed for deliberate debate.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">We expect politicians to be extroverts, but contrasted to old frenemies like Reagan and Tip O’Neil, today’s cohort are often egotistical schemers who are skilled at self-promotion -- including imprinting their name on sponsored infrastructure projects. Unfortunately, being a big mouth is not the same as being a leader. In fact, big-mouth liberals relish the privileges of “leadership,” but shun the responsibilities and accountability. With those pompous pretenders, the buck stops elsewhere.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">One doesn’t naturally associate grandiosity with Biden; indeed, he exhibits traits of a <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-superhuman-mind/202003/6-signs-you-might-be-vulnerable-narcissist" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">vulnerable narcissist</a>. Respect is due to the office of the President, but this incumbent is a really pathetic personage doing his utmost to give seniors a bad name even as <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/01/29/nikki-haley-on-2024-time-for-a-new-generation-to-lead/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">calls crescendo for a new generation of leaders</a>.</span><span style="font-family: "times new roman", times, serif; font-size: 18.64px;"> </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Biden, who plays the blame game to the hilt, is a big reason why poor leadership, at 21%, far outranks the second most important problem of inflation, at 15%, according to Gallup. Unlike previous Presidents, he’s not a vibrant leader, but a puppet of scatterbrained liberals whose values reflect a small minority of legal voters, and a majority of illegal aliens. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Consider Biden’s initial insistence to not negotiate debt limits and spending plans with leaders of a co-equal branch of government with the power of the purse. He’s just a petulant child who’s quick to anger if he doesn’t get his way or is asked a challenging question. That’s a fair critique because <a href="https://www.agingcare.com/articles/dementia-behavior-manipulation-154554.htm" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">childlike behaviors often manifest in those with dementia</a>. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Leader of the Free World? Biden is not even a leader of his own being -- that would be Jill Biden, who substitutes for his free will by ushering him around. Americans see that with 64% in a Fox News poll corroborating the Gallup results -- <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/official-polls/fox-news-poll-state-union-dysfunction-dissatisfaction-disapproval" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Biden is not a strong leader</a>. That’s a very large majority in a polarized populace, but it makes me wonder if the other 36% are on planet TikTok, for apparently, they’re not aware of his <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/biden-busted-claiming-high-inflation-already-took-office-dead-wrong-knows" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">proclivity for shirking responsibility</a>. </span><img border="0" class="im_t" height="0" src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/ssl-intgr-net/tags/7_232_19.gif" style="border: 0px; font-family: Merriweather; font-size: x-large; max-width: 100%;" width="0" /></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Interestingly, over <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022/12/07/new-congress-will-have-a-few-more-veterans-but-their-share-of-lawmakers-is-still-near-a-record-low/" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">three-quarters of the veterans who are members of the 118<span style="line-height: 0; position: relative; top: -0.5em; vertical-align: baseline;">th</span> Congress</a> are Republicans. Unlike the mollycoddled drama queens in the Squad, they are well-versed in the principles of leadership. Retired Navy SEAL Jocko Willink is not one of them (yet), but <a href="https://www.inc.com/peter-economy/the-secret-of-a-living-legend-the-1-thing-this-nav.html" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">he’s a legend</a> who points out that a key element of leadership is to <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/presenting-navy-seal-jocko-willink-leadership-and-discipline-guide" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">admit mistakes</a>. By taking ownership, one can build trust, without which leadership is undermined. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Willink emphasizes humility, but our political “leaders” often have delusions of grandeur. That’s troubling because <a href="https://scottbarrykaufman.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Kaufman-Weiss-Miller-Campbell-2018-Clinical-Correlates-of-Vulnerable-and-Grandiose-Narcissism-A-Personality-Perspective.pdf" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">researchers have discovered</a> a definite link between grandiose narcissism and multiple indicators of inauthenticity -- the exact opposite of Willink’s wisdom. I’ll go with Jocko over just about anyone in Congress any day of the week, especially in a constitutional republic that flourishes with some trust between government branches.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Willink also emphasizes that clear communication is important in leaders, yet Biden added to his vast collection of incomprehensible utterances <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/biden-mocked-bizarre-boast-half-women-team-women-biologist" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">by asserting that</a> “more than half of the women on his team are women.” His point should be obvious, but then again, maybe the other half are not women but ‘birthing people.” Clearly, clear communication is more important than ever for a leader amidst ever-changing woke absurdities.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather; font-size: large;">Democrats have been in charge for a while, but “Democrat leadership” is an oxymoron. No wonder government and poor leadership far outranks even inflation and immigration as our most pressing problem. </span></p><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><div style="text-align: center;"><div data-mce-style="line-height: normal;" style="line-height: normal;

They do not tolerate crime. The death sentence is swiftly and routinely used for terrorists, murderers, and drug traffickers. They do not allow any immigration. When I visited China years ago, they suffered a crime wave. How did they stop it? They executed 50,000 petty criminals for stealing bikes or shoplifting. When Amnesty International protested, the CCP said, “We have 1.4 billion people. We need to make sure they are all honest in order to maintain a viable society. Those 50,000 taught 1.4 billion a lesson.”</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">2. Very low tolerance for religion. No such thing as a God. Almost no religious killings and they are getting rid of the Indigenous Chinese Muslim population as fast as they can.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">As an authoritarian society, they do not tolerate protest or religion of any kind.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">3. They have not been involved in any expensive wars or invaded any country for the last seventy years. They will simply “acquire” Taiwan. We will be powerless to stop them.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">Unlike the USA which has been embroiled in 10 and 20-year wars for most of the last 70 years since WWII, China simply buys up countries with its vast wealth. We spent over $4 trillion in Vietnam for 10 years, $6 trillion for 20 years in Afghanistan and Iraq Wars. We’re $31.5 trillion in debt and pay out over $525 billion annually in interest rates.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">4. Their primary weapon of choice to conquer the world is finance, and countries around the world are falling fast. Not just the USA, but the world is in trouble.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">In the near future, China will employ millions of American workers and dominate thousands of small communities all over the US. Chinese acquisition of U.S. businesses set a new all-time record last year. It is on pace to shatter that record this year.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">One writer who asked to remain anonymous said, “The Smithfield Foods acquisition is a good example. Smithfield Foods is the largest pork producer and processor in the world. It has facilities in 26 US states, and it employs tens of thousands of Americans. It directly owns 460 farms and has contracts with about 2,100 others. But now a Chinese company has bought it for $ 47 billion, and that means that the Chinese will now be the most important employer in dozens of rural communities all over America.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">“Last year a Chinese company spent $2.6 billion to purchase AMC entertainment, one of the largest movie theater chains in the United States. Chinese companies control more movie ticket sales than anyone else in the world.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">“” Economic beachheads” are being established all over America. For example, Golden Dragon Precise Copper Tube Group, Inc. recently broke ground on a $100 million plant in Thomasville, Alabama. Many of the residents of Thomasville, Alabama will be glad to have jobs, but it will also become yet another community that will now be heavily dependent on Communist China.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">“And guess where else Chinese companies are putting down roots? Detroit! Chinese-owned companies are investing in American businesses and new vehicle technology, selling everything from seat belts to shock absorbers in retail stores, and hiring experienced engineers and designers in an effort to soak up the expertise of domestic automakers and their suppliers.”</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">When you total up all imports and exports, China is now the number one trading nation on the entire planet. Overall, the US has run a trade deficit with China over the past decade that comes to trillions of dollars. China has more foreign currency reserves than anyone else on the planet.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">China now produces more than twice as many automobiles as the United States. After being bailed out by US taxpayers, GM is involved in 11 joint ventures with Chinese companies.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><b>China Dominating Every Product in the World</b></p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">♦ The uniforms for the US Olympic team were made in China.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />♦ China now consumes more energy than the United States.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />♦ China is now the leading manufacturer of goods in the world.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />♦ China uses more cement than the rest of the world combined.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />♦ China is now the number one producer of wind and solar power on the entire globe.<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" />♦ China produces 3 times as much coal and 11 times as much steel as the United States does.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">China is now the number one supplier of components that are critical to the operation of our national defense system.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">As you can see, the Chinese people are much smarter and more educated than the American people. They carry a significantly higher IQ collectively than American citizens. Average Chinese IQ: 106. Average American IQ: 97. They are a monoethnic society without racial, class, religious, or ethnic conflict. They are buying up land in Africa and South America in order to feed their enormous and unsustainable population that expects to grow by 100 million, net gain, by 2050. They are single-minded to dominate the world economy, social issues, land, food, water, energy, and countries.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;">We, the American people, are pawns on their chessboard. Our president and Congress are facilitators for the Chinese.</p><p style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: black; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><b style="font-family: "Times New Roman";

The most prominent one is Klaus Schwab with the World Economic Forum. He’s like the fool Carl Marx who never held a job, never ran a company, never signed a paycheck on the front side or the back for that matter but supposedly had all the answers for the woes of the world. For some reason, the Democrat Party and some Republicans have signed on to this fool’s ideology of totally restructuring the world to eliminate capitalism, religion, private property, free speech, and a myriad of other things that are in total violation of our constitutional rights.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; letter-spacing: 1px; margin: 0px 0px 20px;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Merriweather;">His concept is very similar to Bill Gates’ idea and that is to eliminate 90% of the population getting rid of all the “useless eaters’ as Schwab refers to them.</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Open Sans;"> </span><span style="background-color: #ffe599; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Open Sans"; font-weight: 700;"><em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“What we have to confront is a deep systemic and structural restructuring of our world.

He has somehow managed to get banks to do his bidding. He wants all populations unarmed. I can see why. He wants to do things to the population that would make them want to shoot him and his cronies.
