Vindicated

 

Evil has been repudiated!

Perhaps the people have finally seen through the lies of the evil one. With the election of Donald Trump, begins a rejection of democrat policies that have been leading this nation down the wide path that leads to destruction. The left’s attempt to force feed insane, woke policies failed as they tried to take too big of a bite of the apple, and the people have decided a change in course was necessary. Just as many of our mainline denominations have substituted social justice in place of Jesus, the democrat party has strayed far from God. When the evil one speaks, they listen and incorporate it into their party platform. As evidence of the left’s rejection of God, when someone shouted “Jesus is Lord” at a Harris/Walz campaign event in Wisconsin, Kamala Harris betrayed her true nature when she told him he was at the wrong place. Additionally, she was the first Presidential candidate to skip the Catholic Al Smith dinner in New York in almost 40 years.

We the people have elected a Republican President and majorities in Congress. This new administration brings traditional values that respect the sanctity of life, follow God, value parental rights, uphold the rule of law, and oppose the mutilation of children. With the mandate of the people, they have been given the authority to roll back the immoral policies that have been blindly accepted by far too many. They have the power to end this nation’s wandering in the wilderness, held captive to a leftist ideology that has unduly influenced society. Now comes the hard part; Having the will to heal the divisions and to bring this nation back from the abyss by passing legislation that codifies a return to Judeo/Christian values. Pray for our elected representatives to have the courage to stand strong for the Lord.

Even though those on the left have earned the ire of many Americans and warrant retribution for the evil they have sown, that is not what our Lord and Savior would have us do. Jesus said, “But to those of you who will listen, I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone takes your cloak, do not withhold your tunic as well. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what is yours, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you.” Yeah. Loving that neighbor with the pink hair and nose ring that screams that she hates you and any other hateful, homophobic, transphobic Christian that wants to take away her bodily autonomy. Quite the ask you say?

Without forgiveness, there is no reconciliation. Without grace and mercy, there is no way to bridge that divide. Without extending that hand of friendship, there is no opportunity for healing. If God can forgive someone as wholly imperfect as I, we should be able to be the first to try to mend fences. Try it. Harboring a grudge is giving the evil one a foothold in your soul and elicits nothing but negative emotions. It becomes difficult to spew hate at a person who reaches out in love. Instead of being argumentative, try listening and offering non-judgmental instruction. It is easy to build a wall when you believe that you are in the right and you are certain that the other person is wrong. Jesus called us to make disciples of all nations. Do you want to be an impediment to someone searching for themselves when what they need is a right relationship with our Lord and Savior?

God loves all of His children unconditionally and more than we could ever fully understand. Even that crazed leftist college student that you believe lacks any common sense. There are always opportunities to profess your love of Christ to the lost. Reach out with the love of Christ. That is what this nation needs to heal. Policy decisions are in good hands now. Do not fan the flames of division by gloating. Know that God’s hand was present in our nation to give us a chance to right many wrongs and begin a revival in the United States. Will you be the hands and feet of Christ or will you abandon your responsibility to reach the lost to find Him?

Blind Faith

 

Hearts and minds need to turn to God.

God created everything that is, was, and will come to be, and it was good. Our Father in heaven sent His Son, a perfect sacrifice, to take upon Himself the entirety of humanity’s sin, forfeit His life to grant forgiveness of all who believe in Him. A simple act of faith and God grants us eternal life with Him. God loves you so much that there is nothing you can do to make Him love you anymore and there is nothing you can do to make Him love you any less. All is forgiven through faith in the Risen Son. Yet, unbelief reigns and hatred flourishes. Rather than believing in God who loves them, many bow down at the altar of selfishness, climate science, and racism. Hostility toward those in which we disagree replaces loving our neighbor. Vile language replaces civil discourse. Respect for others becomes a foreign concept. Skin color, sexual orientation, or political affiliation determines how one regards another. The murder of a child waiting to be born in the womb, becomes a woman’s right to choose or a reproductive health decision. We are empowering those who devalue the gift of life. As a nation, we have lost our way.

This United States, far from perfect, was founded upon Judeo-Christian values. Those values support freedom of religion, freedom of speech, and the freedom to pursue your own vision of happiness. How have we become a nation of cowards and appeasers, failing to speak out when others infringe upon our God given rights? Our very lives, the liberty to worship God, and peacefully live are gifts from God. How is it that we ignore or acquiesce to the actions of others who would deny us those rights? This nation is at a crossroad. Our next elected representatives will either be purveyors of anti-Christianity and antisemitism, advocates for the worship of government, disparagers of law enforcement, supporters of  criminality, defenders of abortion, racism, open borders, censorship, and the mutilation of children or those who champion freedom of religion, support police, smaller government, embrace of life, equality, supporters of legal immigration, free speech, and affirm the scientific fact that there are but two genders. The contrast could not be starker.

This election is not about party allegiance. This election is a battle between good and evil. This election will determine whether this nation fails or succeeds. Are we no longer a Christian nation as former President Obama said, or will we rechart our course as the founding fathers intended? They entered into a covenant with our Creator, authoring our founding documents to integrate His chosen morals and laws for us. They agreed that incorporating Biblical values into the Constitution would provide the guidance necessary for a fledgling nation to grow and prosper. Yet those universal truths are in danger of being discarded, to be replaced with deceptive leftist ideology.

Only 62% of registered voters cast ballots in the 2020 Presidential election. That indicates that more than a third of US citizens could care less about the direction of our country. That is absolutely unacceptable! Citizens are granted the authority to choose our elected representatives. Not all countries afford their citizens that privilege, yet not even two thirds of our citizens exercise that right. Granted, many citizens do not care to be properly informed, but there is really no barrier to understand the issues to make an informed decision. As Christians it is our responsibility to support elected representatives that mirror our beliefs.

Your voices need to be heard. If we fail to elect those who will govern according to God’s will and faithfully serving the citizens, we will get what we deserve. If you are happy with the direction this nation is heading, vote accordingly. If you are not, cast your vote for those who would change that direction. The choice is yours. Exercise your Constitutional rights or sit back and allow evil to prosper.

Could one who hates justice govern? He shatters the mighty without inquiry and sets up others in their place. Therefore, He recognizes their deeds; He overthrows them in the night and they are crushed. He strikes them for their wickedness in full view, because they turned aside from Him and had no regard for any of His ways.” Job 34:17, 24-27.

We are the hands and feet of our God here on earth. Use them for His glory!

Not Just a Pretty Face

 

Policy matters!

A popularity contest is appropriate to selecting a high school prom queen and king, not for electing the President of the United States. It should not be decided by blind party fealty. It should not be about voting against any particular candidate. Choosing the leader of the free world requires ignoring the window dressing of personality and focusing on policy. Policy decisions made by and supported by the 47th President of the United States will drive the economy, set foreign policy, dictate how our laws are enforced, who will be appointed to Federal Courts, and influence the social mores for the most powerful nation on the planet. This is not a choice to be made lightly or to be made based upon the propaganda of a biased media. In this election both candidates have a long and clear track record, as both have served one term as President and one term as Vice-President. It will be easy to evaluate and compare the policies they have advocated.

Clear of the misleading political ads, the following will focus on each candidate’s prior stated positions on public policy;

·         On the First Amendment, free speech – The lynchpin upon which all our rights and freedoms depend.

Kamala Harris has voiced support for limiting free speech by censoring what government has deemed as misinformation or disinformation. A Disinformation Governance Board was instituted, but due to public outcry, was paused in May of 2022.

Donald Trump has supported free speech and was himself barred from numerous social platforms.

·         On the Second Amendment, the right to bear arms – Necessary to defend all rights and freedoms.

Harris has consistently advocated for gun control and the abolishment of semi-automatic weapons. She has supported a mandatory government buy-back of AR type rifles and a national registry of all firearms.

Trump has consistently supported the citizen’s right to bear arms and opposes gun control and red-flag laws.

·         On illegal immigration, controlling the border, legal immigration, and a path to citizenship.

Harris supported President Biden’s terminating the previous administration’s executive actions to control illegal border crossings, leading to unprecedented numbers of illegal aliens entering the country, and abandoned continuing to build the border wall. She has consistently advocated for expansion of the Dream Act and a path to citizenship for illegal border crossers.

Trump has consistently supported legal immigration and issued executive orders that reduced illegal border crossings. His administration completed more than 200 miles of border wall.

·         On DEI (Diversity, equity, and inclusion) and ESG (Environmental, social, and governance).

Harris supported Executive Order 13985 requiring all governmental bodies and any entities doing business with the government to accept and implement the administration’s demands. DEI has infiltrated schools, the military, and society. ESG, Executive Order 13807, supports Harris’ stated goal to eliminate all gas-powered vehicles by 2050.

Trump has stated that energy independence is key to maintaining the US position in the world and driving our economy.

·         On transgenderism.

Harris supports minors making their own gender decisions with or without parental consent. Harris supports tax-payer funded transition surgery for inmates and military members.

Trump has stated that he believes there are two genders and that he will not support the mutilation of children.

·         On the economy.

Harris believes that government should use equity to control the equality of outcomes and believes that the expansion of government control is imperative.

Trump believes that government should get out of the way and that government influence and size should be reduced.

·         On foreign policy.

Harris mirrors the failed policies of her administration. Appeasement and deference.

Trump believes that military strength is the greatest deterrence to aggression.

·         On abortion.

Harris advocates a federal law allowing unrestricted abortion until birth.

Trump believes that individual states should determine access to abortion with some limits.

·         Project 2025

Harris continually states that Project 2025 is Trump’s agenda.

Trump has disavowed the Heritage Foundation’s white paper wish list.

Eliminating personality and comparing policy makes it easy to differentiate the candidates. It’s your choice. Elect the person who more closely mirrors your vision of this nation moving forward regardless of the mean tweets or irritating cackle. You decide. The next four years of policy decisions will determine our future.

Thumb on the Scale

 

Truth matters?

In the past a dishonest merchant would “tip the scales” to cheat his clients and gain financial advantage. Utilizing deliberately inaccurate scales, adding additional weight, distracting the purchaser, or anything that would swing the transaction in their favor were some of the tactics employed. These disreputable merchants, once found out, were reviled, and were forced out of the area, if they were not jailed. Once lost, trust is not easily regained. Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. There were no second chances for the corrupt. Liars and cheats have no place in a civil society.

When the 60’s anarchists realized that using violence to overthrow the government was failing, they decided to adopt Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. They hatched a scheme to infiltrate academia, journalism, and government. In doing so, they placed themselves in positions to indoctrinate young minds in the universities, report their chosen narrative on the various media platforms, and expand their influence through the deep state by directing legislation favorable to their objectives and working to elect like-minded or malleable individuals to office. When the ends justify the means, there is nothing too extreme for these radicals. And their strategy has been highly successful.

Marxist professors have done an excellent job imparting their leftist ideology to generations of their students, creating younger versions of themselves. University students have embraced the pro-Palestine movement and parrot the leftist slogans that have led to the resurgence of antisemitism. The absurdity of supporting an avowed enemy of Israel and the United States is staggering. They Ignore the deliberate attack of Israeli civilians on October 7th, 2023 and the videotaped gleeful butchering, raping, and hostage taking, yet they denounce Israel’s legitimate defense, demonstrating an utter lack of understanding moral equivalency. To safeguard Israeli citizens from future attacks, Hamas must be eradicated. These students, useful tools for the left, have been taught to hate their country, hate their “whiteness,” disrespect authority, and support all manner of radical ideology.

The legacy media abandons their responsibility to objectively report the news and instead becomes an echo chamber, amplifying talking points of the democrat party. Even though the bias is readily apparent, those so blinded by political fealty cheer on “fake news” as it favors their personal beliefs. Prejudicial application of the law is acceptable to the left if it is directed at political enemies. The constant drumbeat against Christianity, gender bias, “white privilege,” and conservatism, particularly to Donald Trump, has unduly influenced the weak-minded. When the Biden/Harris administration is exposed for colluding with Big Tech to control the narratives around COVID, election fraud, and to suppress information that disproves otherwise, the media ignores and attempts to debunk the story.

Leftists and their willing accomplices denounce those in which they disagree as enemies This is more than disturbing. Far too many have been unduly influenced to the point that they border on the neurotic. Mainstream media is arguably culpable for the attempted assassination of Donald Trump (Remember that? The media has apparently forgotten.) by continually promoting a false and overtly divisive narrative that accuses Trump as an existential threat to democracy. Democracy is dying before our very eyes in the darkness of an untrustworthy and blatantly biased media.

The Deep State is very real and extremely influential in our government. Its tentacles reach deep within the inner workings of the Federal government. And it protects its status with a vengeance. Outsiders are not welcome and if elected are controlled by obstruction and obfuscation. There is good reason that government continues to expand and take more tax dollars to feed their insatiable spending that has the US more than $34Trillion in debt. Rampant spending allows the Deep State and their democrat allies to continue to add layer upon layer of taxes, fees, and regulations on the taxpayer. Electing Trump in 2016 was just a speed bump for the bureaucracy that was able to stymie much of his agenda, with help from the elected ruling class on both sides of the aisle. Handing over the reins to Kamala will lead us in the wrong direction. The godless, anti-life, pro-Hamas, pro child mutilation, government censorship, and the military industrial complex that is the Deep State will continue to balloon out of control.

The choice for Christians could not be clearer. Democrats embrace radical ideology that does not represent this nation. Donald Trump is not perfect, but only one person in history was. Currently we are at a tipping point. Another four years with a democrat in the White House and control of Congress will likely be the death knell of this nation. We must elect our representatives that uphold the values we hold dear. It is clear that democrats have not earned our trust and there are enough Republicans that are in this for themselves, but a conservative majority is a far better option. Cleaning house will take some time, but with Republican leadership it can begin. We need to roll back the insanity that is the left and return to normalcy. it is up to each of us to ensure that happens.

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Ephesians 6:12

Speechless

 

The assault on free speech is real.

The First Amendment is enumerated in the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution. It is a guarantee for citizens to freely express their opinions and prohibits Congress from constraining or usurping the citizen’s free speech rights or the rights of the press to report to the people. Free speech includes that which the government may disagree. Mis or disinformation is free speech. The government can label it as such, but cannot censor it. The citizen has the absolute right to decide what information they choose to consume and what information that they choose to support and accept. These rights are under attack by the very government that the people have empowered to uphold. There is an organized effort to censor speech opposed by government institutions worldwide. Yet there are those who willingly support this perversion of liberty.

As we near the Presidential election, one must ask, is the freedom of expression necessary to preserve this nation? Is free speech the vehicle that enables the people access to and the ability to hold their government accountable? Is the free flow of competing ideas essential to the machinations of a free and open society? There is one party that champions the restriction of free speech. There is one party that believes that the people do not possess the intelligence necessary to determine what is true and what is not. There is one party that proposed a ministry of truth to effectively censor the free flow of information on the internet, particularly targeting social media. The democrat party believes that institutions, not individuals should determine what speech is not only allowable, but accessible. Yet, there are those that are comfortable ceding their rights to government control.

Technologically, our society has advanced so far in such a short time. Information is at our fingertips and news is accessible in real time. Government collusion with social media is diluting and/or eliminating opinions that are deemed unacceptable to be freely exposed to the masses. This enables government entities to control the narrative, a strategy employed by tyrannical governments worldwide to propagandize, hide the truth, and enable those governments to control their population. This insidious tactic, embraced by the Soviet Union, China, Iran, and North Korea, is being employed throughout the “free” world. In the European Union (EU) the CEO of the Telegram, Pavel Durov, has been arrested by France for enabling “bad actors” to utilize the social media platform to commit crimes. The Telegram employs an intermediary to cooperate with the EU to identify and remove bad actor’s access to the platform. This arrest not only violates Durov’s right to freedom of information, but is likely illegal.

In Brazil, Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, tasked with fighting “fake news” by the leftist regime headed by Luis Inazio Lula da Silva, decided to ban the “X” social media platform from Brazil in an ongoing dispute with Elon Musk. Musk is refusing to comply with a court order that stated that the social media platform was a “threat to democracy.” Sound familiar? Moraes further ordered all assets to Starlink, a Musk owned satellite broadband firm, to be frozen, all internet providers to remove the “X” app, and will levy fines of $9,000 per day of any of the 50 million Brazilian users caught using a VPN to access “X.” Overstepping his authority perhaps?

Governments have a difficult time conducting illicit business if citizens can learn of those actions. If freedom of the press is curtailed or censored, the powerful cannot be held accountable. Information is power and to limit or eliminate dissent allows tyranny to reign without restraint. Knowledge alone does not prevent the repression of the populace. Those who choose to ignore the tyranny and fall prey to the blindness of political animosity are the willing pawns that facilitate out of control government. A polarized population that falls for the unhinged rantings of a political party that seeks unfettered power are the very tools necessary for evil to succeed. Hatred produces blindness that causes one to fail to recognize the true enemy. Hatred of our neighbors simply based upon party affiliation makes no sense. Hatred will cloud the judgement necessary to stand up for justice. Hatred will allow freedom to die.

Do not rejoice when people you disagree with are persecuted or silenced. Freedom dictates that all are treated fairly in accordance with the law. Speech in which you disagree, unless it is to foment violence or chaos, is permitted in a free society. If someone’s opinion offends you, you can ignore it and seek another platform. If you dislike a person, you have the freedom to associate with whoever you choose. There is always information and opinion that can fit your chosen narrative and beliefs. Give grace to those of differing opinions rather than looking to censor them. Once freedom of speech has ended and the government tells you what to believe, your life will be diminished. Be careful what you wish for, because one day the tables will turn, you will become that threat to democracy, and you will be the one silenced and persecuted.

Fiddling While Rome Burns

 

Too busy to care.

It wasn’t curiosity that killed the cat, it was apathy. The Roman Empire did not fall in a day. Years of indifference took a toll. If you do not pay attention, those who fill in the void will prevail. Too preoccupied to pay attention to your civic responsibility? Too busy to properly inform yourself of the issues that matter? Unconcerned with the evil that is overwhelming our culture? Actions, or in this case, the lack thereof, cedes our nation to those who strive to fundamentally transform America, a transformation that will ultimately lead to the demise of this Constitutional Republic. This nation is on a path that will make it unrecognizable less than 250 years after its’ founding. This is happening right in front of our noses, yet too few pay attention. Unfortunately, when they finally realize the clear and present danger presented by the left, it may be too late and America will be lost, perhaps forever. Nice work!

Democrats scream bloody murder, no pun intended, when the Supreme Court strikes down Roe V Wade and sends abortion back to the individual states. Democrat Attorney General Josh Kaul sues the legislature over the “obsolete” 1849 Statute that abolishes abortion when it becomes the law of the land in Wisconsin. Two referenda on the ballot on August 13th sought to return shared authority for the distribution of emergency federal funding to both the legislature and governor. The legislature ceded the sole authority to the Governor in the 1930’s, when it was, due to transportation issues, difficult to get the legislature back to the Capitol in a timely manner to address emergencies. As you may know, transportation today is much more efficient and the legislature can convene in a manner of hours, if necessary, rendering that argument obsolete. Unlike the 1849 abortion law, democrats were fine with an obsolete law that rested the sole authority to manage Billions of federal dollars to the Governor, or at least until a Republican Governor takes office.

I must say that the Democrats and their allies did an excellent job “messaging” flat out lies in ads leading up to the election. They accused “extreme MAGA Republicans” for attempting to wrest power from the people. They argued that it would create an unnecessary burden and delay for those awaiting relief. Really? For those of you who did not see fit to properly inform yourself and were fooled into voting “NO,” you actually voted against your own self-interest. Nice work! These referenda would have given joint authority to the people’s representatives and the Governor to decide where and to who these monies would be allocated, which is exactly how state government is supposed to work. By rejecting these referenda, the citizens have ceded that authority to one person and crowned that person a King. You have, in fact, enabled tyranny and denied authority to the very people you elected to represent your interests at the state level.

Give them what they want, they will get what they deserve. As Rush Limbaugh postulated about the “Low information voter (LIV) theory that too many in the voting population cast their ballots without the requisite information necessary to make an informed decision.” As former President Barack Obama once said, “Elections have consequences.” It would seem that both are correct.

“The cornerstone of democracy rests on the foundation of an educated electorate.” Thomas Jefferson

1984, circa 2024

 

“Wrong-think”

George Orwell simply missed his prediction by 40 years. Many quotes from his acclaimed dystopian novel, “1984,” ring true today. “The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power.”  This ideology is skillfully demonstrated by the democrat party as they will stop at nothing to gain and maintain power. One of the more insidious methods they employ, utilizing their accomplices in mainstream media and big tech, is engaging in all manner of censorship of speech in which they disagree. Control the narrative, control the people. From COVID, election integrity, abortion, or anything else deemed “dis/misinformation,” the marketplace of ideas is being destroyed by the very people who proclaim themselves to be the defenders of democracy.

There is good reason that free speech is enumerated in the 1st Amendment. Without it we devolve into tyranny. When the government colludes with big tech and social media to generate a narrative supported by the current administration, we more closely mirror a communist state that controls the media. Control the narrative, control the people. Freedom of the press is also enumerated in the 1st Amendment. “Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of speech.” Benjamin Franklin. Freedom of speech is at risk in this bastion of freedom. When the political narrative outweighs truth, we begin the slippery slope that leads to tyranny.

“Who controls the past, controls the future. Who controls the future, controls the past.” George Orwell. Cancel culture is engaged in a process to rewrite the past. Past practices that trigger leftists and would not be acceptable today, leads to the erasure of those who engaged in practices acceptable in their time. Books are banned. Statues torn down. Heroes of their time become reviled in ours. This more closely resembles the destruction of ancient sites perpetrated by ISIS during their reign in 2014. “Those who do not learn from the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them.” Our society is devolving before our very eyes and the democrat party is front and center, cheering on a fundamental transformation of America. There is a clear and present danger, occurring in plain sight, but many are just too blind to see it.

“Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing.” George Orwell. Indoctrinated college students spout epithets falsely accusing Israel of genocide and colonization of the ancestral home of the Palestinians. Nothing could be further from the truth. Man on the street interviews indicate just how well the Trump is evil and a threat to democracy narrative has taken hold of those too ignorant to form opinions of their own. A popular meme states, “What did the TV tell me to think today.” Humor becomes reality. Far too many people are influenced by a media complicit in amplifying the democrat party’s message. People falling prey to leftist propaganda are learning to hate themselves based upon gender, race, and sexuality. People are being reprogrammed by those who crave to rule over them.

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” George Orwell. Even if it was not his intention, Orwell was a prophet. These very things are happening at a breakneck pace in our society. The democrat party and their accomplices in the mainstream media and big tech are promoting the means toward the destruction of America. If we allow this conspiracy to come to fruition, it will end the last great bastion of freedom in this world. If we sit back and do nothing there will be no going back. This election is a fight against good and evil. Will you let evil prevail?

“Big Brother is watching you!” George Orwell. Control the narrative, control the people. Step up and take back this nation. Vote the purveyors of evil out of office. Hold the media accountable. Stand up against the forces of darkness. Fight for your freedom or it will be lost forever.

Lawless

 


Says democrats and the Deep State!

What happens when the rule of law is nothing but a cudgel to be used by the Biden administration and its’ minions to attack political enemies? The total disregard of the rule of law is the very tip of the iceberg for the “win at all cost” democrat party. Lawfare is just another tool for the left to target their political enemies. Yet, many have no issue with this strategy and support these devious efforts to destroy conservatism. Divide and conquer. Prosecute the law-abiding, ignore the anarchists. Foment as much division amongst the populace as necessary to reach their goals. Easy enough to accomplish with the assistance of a complicit media and the deep state bureaucracy. There is one thing, and one thing only that they fear, the re-election of Donald Trump and his stated goal to dismantle the deep state.

Make no mistake, the democrat party despises the general populace. They are at a point where they no longer need your vote. The democrat machine’s ballot harvesting scheme allows them to collect ballots, without it being necessary for the voter to complete it. Their data base contains the names of those who have previously donated or voted democrat. An effective money laundering scheme has directed “Smurf” donations in the 100’s of millions to the democrat party. Democrat voters not casting ballots prior to the election or even after, will have ballots completed and mailed in their names. Not to worry if signatures do not match or are absent, corrupt clerks in blue cities will accept any ballot for a democrat. Think that the flood of illegals does not matter if they are not in your back yard? Think again. Millions of illegals have been registered to vote by NGOs in democrat run cities in all the battleground states. They are using the homeless loophole that does not require ID and are using the NGOs address, so that ballots are mailed to the NGOs directly.

All the measures are in place for another election “rigged” in the democrat’s favor. Democrats have abandoned the rule of law causing the citizenry to distrust Federal law enforcement, the Federal judiciary, and our local, State, and Federal elections. Our currency is imprinted with the words “In God We Trust.” The democrat party has destroyed that trust in their unhinged quest for power, that includes eliminating God and His followers. It is time for the silent majority to speak up. It is time for Christians to awaken from our collective slumber. It is time that the democrat party face the consequences for misusing the trust that the electorate has loaned to them. It is time to vote democrats out of office.

Do not be comfortable if polls show Trump leading Harris. The democrat party is fully able to overcome narrow margins with their election fraud machine. In 2020, 62% of registered voters voted in the Presidential election, over a 7% increase from 2016. 38% of registered voters could have their ballots returned without their knowledge. Returning less than 5% of those votes fraudulently can turn an election without causing any undue suspicion. It is incumbent upon all of us to cast our vote and additionally, make certain that you inform and encourage like-minded people to vote.

False Pretenses

 

 Hate and lies cannot continue to reign.

The new reality that DEI has inflicted upon this nation discounts merit and rewards specific attributes of those deemed to matter more than others. The days of working hard and earning a promotion are considered relics of a bygone era. Common sense is excoriated as a symptom of white supremacy, rooted in racism and homophobia. Equality is no longer a goal for all, those who are deemed oppressed due to skin color or gender orientation, require a head start to level the playing field so that everyone has an equal outcome, regardless of effort. Anyone denying their birth gender must be respected, but somehow, are not required to respect any opinion that offends them. Mental illness and sexual deviancy are to be celebrated and revered by society. History is being rewritten by those who once were the dregs of society, now elevated by woke ideology in this new age of enlightenment.

History isn’t the only norm being edited and/or cancelled out of existence. Once accepted truths are substituted with the fabrications of a corrupt, biased media. Edicts from the self-appointed ruling elite countermand the responsibility to serve and represent. As we approach a tipping point in this nations’ evolution, some things are self-evident and no manner of insane wokeness will ever change that. We are all created by a God that loves us, made in His image, for His purpose. That Jesus Christ went to the cross for us, taking all of humankind’s sin, rose and defeated death so that we will have a place with Him for all eternity. We are all created with an emptiness in our hearts that can only be filled with the love of Christ. We were carefully made to love our God and Creator.

Woke culture is inspired by the evil one. Those who are overcome by evil use the appealing words of diversity, equity, and inclusion to deceive those into loving the things of the world. The democrat party, simply put, is in league with the devil and promotes the works of his hand. The democrat party rejects the living God and revels in the lies of the evil one to gain and maintain power. It is time for good Christians to reject the lies and the evil of this world. It is time for good Christians to choose godly men and women to lead this nation. No, there is not a savior that is of this world, but we can use our vote to put in place those that would lead according to God’s will. No party is pure, just as all people are flawed and fall short of the glory of God. God’s word is an instruction manual for His people. If one dwells in His word, it becomes apparent as to what is truly evil in this world and how we can reject it.

We must reject the hatred spewed by the democrat party and their surrogates in the media. We must engage in the tough love of our neighbor and rebuff the dangerous woke ideology so that they can change the error of their ways and embrace our Lord and Savior once again. Keeping them in authority will only validate their march away from Him and embolden them to continue to enact more of their evil policies. If we decide to stand idly by and allow this insanity to overwhelm us, we abandon our responsibilities as followers of Christ and citizens of this nation. Once evil takes firm rooting, it becomes more and more difficult to excise. It is become customary to call each election, “the most important in our lifetime,” but this election will decide the course of this nation going forward. Do we want to be ruled by godless elites that will continue to persecute their stated enemies, Christians, conservatives, and traditional Judeo-Christian value and morals, or do we want to facilitate the return to normalcy?

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesians 6:10-12

On the Border

 

Kama-czarina?

The “On the Border” Restaurant chain offers many convenient locations to enjoy their Mexican cuisine and even has a loyalty rewards program. Presumptive democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris, who President Biden absolutely did not tab as border czar, (wink-wink) had nothing to do with the disaster on our southern border. But she is a co-defendant in the deliberate strategy to ignore immigration law. The Biden/Harris administration has provided many convenient locations for illegal border crossers, correction “asylum seekers.” They even provided a loyalty rewards program replete with free transportation, $5000 debit cards, free housing, food, medical care, and a sophisticated scheme to register them as homeless voters in blue cities in battleground states. How opportune for this lawless administration that prosecutes its political rivals and accuses them as a threat to democracy. As always, any accusations made by democrats mirror their own assault on the very foundations of this great nation.

The great and powerful orator Kamala has opined about her preferred policy on illegal immigration. Before her grand speech when she boldly pronounced, “Do not come,” before she became VP, I had the opportunity to observe Senator Harris’ office at the Capitol. It was arrayed with prominent signs, proudly announcing that undocumented immigrants were welcome here. Apparently, this doctrine continues to be employed by our Vice-President. Who needs borders when you can use NGOs (non-government organizations) to register illegals as homeless, without the requirement to provide identification and to use the NGOs as a mailing address. Then ship them off to blue states where they can be counted in the next census. Constitution be damned, if it benefits their side of the political aisle, they will do it! After all, the media will run cover for them.

A lawsuit challenging the Biden administration’s voting access executive order 14019, a federally funded, likely unconstitutional scheme that targets key democrat voting blocs, is currently heading to the Supreme Court. The lawlessness of the democrats is beyond the pale. In order to save democracy, democracy must be destroyed and replaced with socialism. This is the insanity that defines the ever-leftward leaning democrat party. And yet there are those that support this lunatic fringe that is the democrat party.

Unfettered immigration is the key for the democrats to remain in power. Their policies have been utter failures and benefit no one but themselves and their benefactors. Registering illegals to vote in the battleground states allows their NGO partners to collect, fill out, and return ballots. New voter registrations have increased dramatically in the battleground states of Nevada, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, and Georgia. How many registered Republicans do you think are included in those totals? There is nothing democratic about the democrat party. Like the bitter, childless cat lady, democrats selfishly serve party before country. Kamala Harris is the epitome of a self-centered, entitled politician, saying whatever she believes is necessary to assuage those who are listening.

Throughout history many nations fade away after 250 years. They often fall prey to the very tenets instituted to guide and benefit society. The failure of the United States of America is transpiring from within. The politicians that are elected to represent the citizens are eroding away the very rights and privileges they are tasked to serve and protect. Freedom of the press has enabled willing leftists to obliterate the truth and replace it with propaganda that makes the Soviet Union pale in comparison. When a political party can no longer convince the electorate to accept their policies and decides to use the full force of the government to attack their political opponents, they are no longer worthy to serve in elected office.

Kamala Harris supports unlimited, taxpayer funded abortion, term limits on the judiciary, but not on elected representatives, open borders with a path to citizenship for illegal border crossers, endless taxpayer funded wars, sexual mutilation of children, the green new deal, universal basic income, government funded health care for all, an end to the meritocracy to be replaced with race and gender as determining factors, and governmental control of the lives of the citizenry. Kamala Harris is grossly unqualified to lead this nation. Elect her and this nation will fall into the abyss and may never recover. And we will have no one to blame but ourselves.

Enabled

 

Mainstream media promotes evil.

Most of the national media paints a narrative that favors democrats, liberalism, and some would argue, promotes leftist ideology. They denigrate all things Christian, conservative, and anything else they deem to be detrimental to their agenda. Cheerleading from “news” outlets MSNBC, CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC, New York Times, Washington Post, and others, has enabled evil to permeate our society and begin a path toward the fundamental transformation of this nation. If the mainstream media was fair and balanced, democrat policies would be exposed for the failures they truly are, and always have been. If the mainstream media was fair and balanced, a cognitively challenged Joe Biden would never have been elected President. If the mainstream media was fair and balanced, the vile rhetoric that led to the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, would not have happened.

The 1st Amendment is an instrument that can cut both ways. Those who pervert that privilege and hide behind the veil of free speech, profess that which the evil one favors. Words do have consequences when lies are repeatedly reported as facts. Weak minded individuals can be unduly influenced when they believe the propaganda spewed by media figures and politicians. When leaders, elected to serve the public, denigrate their opponents with disgusting and deceitful accusations to gain political advantage, they fail themselves and the nation. When the media abandons their responsibility to objectively report facts and choose to be cheerleaders for one political party, they fail their oaths as journalists and their obligation to hold the powerful accountable.

Democrat policies support the mutilation of children, vilifies people based upon skin color, purposefully open our borders to register illegals to vote as homeless, tacitly support antisemitism, vigorously defend the murder of unborn children, advocate for males to share public facilities with women, illegally launder money through “smurfing” prior donors to democrats, and, via executive action, force the military and every company doing business with the government to incorporate DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) in their hiring practices, lifting up candidates by race and gender rather than ability to perform the job. If these policies are not inherently evil, nothing is. Yet, mainstream media is in lockstep with the democrat party, foisting this new “reality” on those vulnerable to this insanity. The father of lies is very happy these days.

Christians are called to resist evil and to strive to do good in this world. We are also called in the Great Commission, to make Disciples of all the world. Our God wants all His children to come to Him. The Good Shepherd does not want to lose even one of His sheep. How then do we endeavor to plant the seeds of faith in those who, overcome by Satan’s lies, believe that they are enemies of God and reject the gift of grace? God has made everyone in His image for a specific purpose. No matter how you look, what skills and talents, or lack thereof that you possess are all gifts from God to fulfill His purpose. No matter how confused, angry, or lost, each human being is made to love God and each other. We need to reach out in love to our “enemies” and find a way to open the door and not build a wall as we are wont to do.

Christians are extremely good at pointing fingers at those who are “sinners,” focusing on that speck in their eye as we ignore the plank in ours. While it is difficult to open dialogue with those we vehemently disagree, we are called to love our neighbor as ourselves to open the door for the Holy Spirit to work in them so that they can become our brothers and sisters in Christ. It is all too easy to harbor ill will and ignore our responsibility to “preach the word.” Resisting evil does not mean that we condemn our neighbors. Evil abounds in this world that is the realm of the evil one. Every one of us fall prey to the lies of Satan. There is only one who was without sin and while we are called to be more like Christ, we cannot replace Him and save the lost ourselves. We are the farmers who scatter the seeds of faith, and it is the power of the Holy Spirit that can indwell and convince. Not all seeds will germinate, but we are called to continue to reach out and be the hands and feet of Christ, building His kingdom on earth in preparation for our eventual home with Him.

Identifying the evil that we are called to resist is only the first step in our discipleship. Confronting those unduly influenced by the evil one and his minions is the next step in our servitude of Christ. We must look past the evil in the person, recognize that person is a child of God, even though they may not realize it, and instruct, gently correct, so that they can be saved from the evil that has overwhelmed them. If we can even approach one iota of the love our Father has for us in our interactions, just maybe they can open their hearts, if ever so slightly, to fellowship with the Risen Savior.

Happy Now?

 

The deceitfulness of the democrat party exposed.

The constant vilification of Trump is working, much better than the democrat party could have ever dreamed! Today a lunatic attempted to assassinate President Trump. The only thing surprising is that this has not occurred earlier. Even the great unifier in chief, Joe Biden, said on July 8th, “So we’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye!” Great work Joe, you finally did it. Unfortunately for you, the shooter’s aim was off. The constant drumbeat to vilify your opponent to cover up your failed presidency has convinced some to try to eliminate your stated “threat to democracy.” Well, you can continue having your lackey Attorney General Merrick Garland, trump up some more indictments to keep Trump busy if your acolytes are too incompetent to eliminate him. The old bait and switch. You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you certainly cannot fool all the people all the time.

The unhinged lunacy of the left and their sycophants in the mainstream media is coming home to roost. Democrats have gone “all in” on this “Trump is going to be a dictator, eliminate all of his enemies, and end our democracy if he is elected strategy” in a futile effort to remain in power. This is all about to end. We can see who the man behind the curtain is, and it is not the man who allegedly had over 81 million votes cast for him. Unelected bureaucrats are running the show and Joe Biden is an empty suit that can no longer even read a teleprompter without slurring. Well……uh.…anyway….uh….uh, please welcome the President of Ukraine Vladimir Putin and Vice-President Trump, oh, and we finally beat Medicare! Dementia is no laughing matter. It steals your mind and ultimately ends your life, no longer recognizing yourself or your loved ones. But, when the President of the United States is no longer in control of his mental capacity, something must give.

The democrat party knew full well about Biden’s diminished mental capacity when they tilted the primary race to favor him. They chose to hide his mental decline by keeping him in the basement to campaign. The leftist media were complicit in further hiding his dementia by not challenging his administration’s glaring lack of transparency. Biden’s staff and family hid him away to keep their jobs and the fame and money flowing into family coffers. It is time for the unhinged left and the useful idiots that continue to support Joe out of party fealty to pay for their crimes. There should be, not one democrat up for election to prevail. They should all be voted out of office for their treachery. What will it finally take for those who vote “D” and support the party of lawlessness? It is time for the democrat party to face consequences for their deceit.

All the World’s a Stage

 

And we have been played!

Donald Trump was correct. The Biden regime was a set up from the start. From the campaign from his basement due to the COVID-19 “plandemic,” to the carefully scripted mainstream media supporting what is now painfully obvious, a dementia patient for President. The democrat party’s thinly veiled, yet highly successful efforts to manipulate an election, using lawsuits, leftist judges, democrat Secretaries of State, and democrat operatives in blue cities, worked to perfection. Now the proverbial cat is out of the bag and Dementia Joe is exposed for all the world to see. We have been duped and those responsible need to be held to account. The blame should not fall on his staff or family for hiding his condition. The blame lies with the democrat party that foisted this fraud upon us and their merry band of sycophants in the mainstream media.

Joe Biden is not only not competent enough to run for re-election, he is too incapacitated to remain as President. Having him continue as the leader of the free world is a true threat to democracy and the security of this nation. The democrats must pay for this sham. They knew all about Joe’s dementia before they nominated him for their ticket. Simply acknowledging Joe’s all too apparent failing mental abilities is not nearly enough penance for the democrat leadership. They must pay at the ballot box. This is a violation of the sacred trust we imbue to our elected representatives. For too long, democrats have served themselves and their party while neglecting their responsibility to our nation. It is time to vote those democrats out of office, once and for all.

Democrats will continue to bend, fold, and mutilate existing election law to their benefit. Even if the polling is accurate, democrats will always find enough ballots marked with “D” circles to overturn a close election. We must go out in force to overcome their cheating. It is incumbent upon us to inform our friends and neighbors. It is incumbent upon us to get those who typically do not exercise their right to vote to the polls or to early vote. It is incumbent upon us to make certain that the democrats face the consequences of their actions. Democrats should never be in power again unless they change course and properly represent their constituency. If they continue having the authority to keep our borders open, kill the unborn with impunity, and advocate for their insane woke agenda, they do not deserve to hold office. It is up to us. Are you in?

The Father of Lies

 

  Persuading the masses that good is evil and evil is good.

The difference between reality and fantasy has been skewed.  The left has accelerated the devolution of society, championing the murder of the unborn, recklessly flooding the nation with illegal aliens, encouraging the mutilation of children, promoting racial bias, and endorsing hatred towards those that do not support their unhinged lunacy.  It is becoming progressively difficult to determine what is “normal” and navigating these new things leads one to carefully parse any speech, lest one becomes labeled as phobic and subject to cancel culture. Satan is most certainly winning the battle for the soul of America.

The ever-leaning leftward democrat party hyperventilates that Trump is a threat to democracy, but democrats are destroying this nation that relies upon the rule of law by weaponizing government using censorship and lawfare. The ripple effect of DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) instituted via President Biden’s executive order, has had an adverse effect on society. This insidious order, that sounds so appealing, is nothing of the sort. Just as the evil one uses appealing language to tempt humankind to accept what is sinful as good, this order perverts language to fool the masses and assuage the purveyors of evil in our nation. No longer are the best and brightest promoted, promotions are now based on skin color, sexual orientation, and gender. This will end the meritocracy that has served this nation well and lead to the under-qualified ascending to vital positions.

ESG (environment, social, and governance) is another program designed to bring us closer to socialism. By requiring businesses to adhere to the standards of ESG, profitability suffers and, as with DEI, forces companies doing business with the government or any business connected in any way with the government, to base production methods, hiring, firing, HR and purchasing based upon environmental sustainability, race, and gender identity. This will effectively destroy those companies that cannot remain profitable while following these insane policies. These deceptive policies, that sound so reasonable, are meant to integrate government control into all aspects of life in this nation. In fact, the government is incrementally eroding the rights of the citizens to pursue life, liberty, and happiness. Satan must be so proud of his democrat party underlings that are accomplishing his purposes.

For far too long, mainstream America has sat back and acquiesced to the wokeness infiltrating society, satisfied with being ever tolerant, accepting, and welcoming to this pestilence. When schools began using remote learning during the COVID scare, parents saw first-hand that their children were being indoctrinated by teachers that were antithetical to the morals and values the parents held. The unrest we have witnessed on college campuses is a direct result of the kindergarten to university indoctrination with leftist ideology. The trust we have afforded our educators has been misplaced. Distracted by the busyness of daily life or shirking parental responsibility to be involved in our children’s education, we have given Marxist educators license to mold our children into their image. Finally, there is pushback.

In the Old Testament book of Deuteronomy a charge to parents is given, These words I am commanding you today are to be upon your hearts.  And you shall teach them diligently to your children and speak of them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as reminders on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Write them on the doorposts of your houses and on your gates. The Holy Spirit inspired author of these verses highlights just how important a parent’s role is instilling faith, morals, and values in their children. As lives become more complex, the parental role has been ceded to our educational system. When that system has been perverted, we fail in our responsibility to properly raise our children.

When children are indoctrinated away from the tenets of faith, when values and morals contrary to parental desires are instilled, the evil one wins. Traditional mores have been written on our hearts by our Lord and Creator. The abandonment of our Judeo-Christian value system is a recipe to our own destruction. Leftists want nothing less than to destroy this nation and the democrats are firmly in bed with them. Leftists want to sow the seeds of discontent and move us away from our God. Leftists pursue the goals of the evil one, dividing us by race, creed, and gender. If we fail to wake up and understand what the democrat party is attempting to achieve, we will have no one to blame but ourselves. The party that propped up a cognitively impaired Joe Biden, for democrats and the deep state to control, is evidence enough of their disdain for we the people. Democrats must be swept out of office, up and down the ballot. The leadership of the democrat party are willing tools of the evil one. Keep them in power and we will get what we deserve.

Puppet on a String

 


democrat corruption on full display.

Notwithstanding the uncanny resemblance to Walter, ventriloquist Jeff Dunham’s puppet, President Biden shares much more in common with his doppelganger. Biden is obviously controlled by his bureaucrat handlers, just like Walter is controlled by Dunham. His numerous references to his “getting in trouble” and “I’m supposed to call on this reporter first,” having cue cards and running off the rails without a teleprompter, is evidence that our President is not running the show. He is merely an actor carrying out the directives of the real “leaders.” The Deep State is pervasive and ferociously protects their self-interests. In Biden, they have an easily manipulated, deeply flawed and compromised figurehead that allows them to inflict their will upon this nation.

When Barack Obama left office in 2017, he did not quietly ride off into the sunset. Unlike Presidents before him, he set up an office in DC and continued to have regular meetings with members of the Deep State and fellow democrats. I guess he was not kidding when he said that it would be fun to have someone in office that he could influence from his basement while wearing his sweatpants would be ideal. That way he could still run things without having to deal with all the other accoutrements that accompany the position. Unfortunately, the general populace has no clue of these events, since the leftist mainstream media omits reporting anything harmful to our “duly elected” President and his merry band of democrat operatives in Congress and the Federal government’s bloated bureaucracy.

People, though, are beginning to put two and two together and understand what Biden and the democrat party truly are, the greatest threat to democracy since the Soviet Union. No longer do they need to hide their disdain for the common man, it is out in the open for all to see. Why would the leader of a nation accuse half of the population as extremists and a danger to public order. In a September 2022 address to the nation, Biden said, MAGA forces are determined to take this country backwards, backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love." This type of dialogue is more than just counter-productive, it is absolutely irresponsible, and likely dangerous for maintaining a civil society, when the leader of the free world makes demonstrably false claims like this.

After Biden’s performance on the debate stage, it is more than apparent that there is no way that he is in charge, let alone even capable of performing the duties required of a President. This further shines a light on those who have aided and abetted this travesty. All the leftist pundits that proclaimed the “virtues” of Joe Biden sold us all a false bill of goods. The democrat party that promoted this doddering old fool to the highest office in the nation should be held to account. Securing power for democrats supersedes duty to the nation for both the media and the democrat party. You do not matter to either of them, only your vote for the candidate with a “D” after their name matters. Once they attain office, you are less than an afterthought.  

Sex, drugs, and rolls of cash from lobbyists drives the deep state and keeps our elected “representatives” under control. When the President himself is embroiled in potential fraudulent and perhaps illegal activity, it sets the bar for the whole of government.  There is likely less than 10% of Congress that is not on the take. Those who are truly public servants are ostracized by their peers as someone who just may upset the apple cart of money and lucrative jobs offers after they “retire” from Congress. The first step in returning this nation back to we the people, is to vote as many democrats out of office as we can, returning them to the minority party that they truly are. It is time to make certain that everyone in your sphere of influence casts their vote accordingly. It is time to make your voices heard and to bring an end to the corruption that is the democrat party.

A House Divided

 

A nation overcome by partisanship will destroy itself.

It has come to this. While we should be uniting as a people against a common enemy, we demonize and fight each other, allowing our foe to take advantage. Leftist media spews propaganda and lies, yet people accept these deceptions as truth, supporting narratives counter to their own self-interests. This nation is crumbling from within as we point our accusatory fingers at one another, ignoring the danger that threatens the very existence of this Constitutional Republic. As we quarrel amongst ourselves, evil laughs while it thrives in our midst. Good citizens, it is time to unite and stand up to the evil that has become so pervasive in our society. We have much more in common with each other despite the differences that have been emphasized by the media and the left.

This evil is obscured by the amenable provisos of acceptance and tolerance. Unfortunately, these terms are abused to validate behavior that is not only wrong but legitimizes that which is abhorrent. Failure to comply with this evil and you are called out as “phobic.” Evil is also concealed within DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion), CRT (critical race theory), and ESG (environmental, social, and governance). These federally supported and mandated programs emphasize our differences, rewards are made based on race and, just as the leftist icon Saul Alinsky promoted, foments distrust and anger toward those identified as “oppressors,” or more practically, anyone in opposition to leftist ideology. It is long past due that mainstream America push back against this insanity, brought to you by the anti-American left and their allies in the democrat party. Yet, there are those too obtuse to see through the lies spewed by the leftist mainstream media, overwhelmed by a contrived hatred of traditional America.

Death and taxes are a certainty in this world. You can also take it to the bank that the left will consistently accuse their opposition of the very tactics they themselves employ. The democrat party has incorporated Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals as their tactical playbook. If mainstream democrats were aware that the political party that they support advocated against their constituency, they would not continue to cast their votes for them. Unfortunately, many have been persuaded by the cacophony of lies emanating from the leftist dominated mainstream media. We are engaged in a battle for the soul of America. This nation’s laws and freedoms are being used by the enemy to erode, and ultimately destroy the tenets of a civil society and we are the only ones who have the power to stop it.

The framers of the Constitution concluded that for a Constitutional Republic to endure, it was necessary that the citizens be informed, moral, and faithful. “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” John Adams. Political infighting coupled with the vilification of opposing viewpoints will lead to the destruction of this nation. No foreign army needs to invade if we destroy ourselves. “If our nation is ever taken over, it will be taken over from within.” James Madison.

It is imperative that, we the people, are an informed electorate. It matters who we elect to represent our interests at the local, State and Federal level. Too many of our elected representatives shirk their responsibility as public servants. Too many of our elected representatives harbor an agenda that conflicts with the will of the people. Too many of our elected representatives have enriched themselves and their families at the expense of the taxpayer. “But Jesus called them aside and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them. It shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave— just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:25-28. During His ministry Jesus turned the world upside down with His teaching, healing, forgiveness, and servant leadership. We cannot expect our government to meet the expectations that Jesus delivered, but our elected leaders should strive to serve their constituents, first and foremost.

As we slip into the abyss, we need public servants to lift us up, not kick us down. We need public servants that value the sanctity of life, not diminish it. We need public servants that stand up to protect our children, not advocate to mutilate them. We need public servants that are principled, not morally corrupt. We need public servants that uphold the rule of law, not use it to further their party’s political ambitions. We need public servants that serve God, not the woke mob. Those who fail their constituents should be voted out of office.

As Americans, we are in this together. There is strength in numbers and your vote holds power. Don’t just blindly vote. Inform yourself. Know the issues and where each candidate stands and vote accordingly. This is your country. Don’t stand by idly and allow a few to ruin it.

The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out for himself.

Timing is Everything

The plan is obvious

Often the truth is right there in plain sight. One only needs to open their eyes, filter out the noise and see it for what it really is. The determination of the left in their attempt to “bring Trump to justice,” begs the question as to why it is so all-important to bring this man down? This concerted effort has morphed into an exercise bordering on the ridiculous that becomes even more preposterous as November 5th fast approaches. The democrats have lost their collective minds since that fateful day in 2016 when Hillary Clinton lost the election to Donald Trump. Their brain trust decided to tacitly support Trump because they assumed that there was no way he could ever be elected and if nominated, would be the easiest Republican to defeat. When that strategy went down in flames, democrats mobilized the Deep State to hamstring the Trump administration and to ultimately take Trump down. The following is a timeline of democrat failure after failure, with but a few successes along the way.

Russia, Russia, Russia… The Hillary Clinton campaign commissioned and paid for the Steele dossier, a lame effort to discredit her political opponent, Donald Trump. With an assist from the ever-compliant leftist media, this buffoonish attempt at an October surprise actually got some legs after the election, effectively impeding the new administration and torpedoing much of Trump’s agenda. Never-Trumpers in the Republican party aided and abetted the democrats, particularly the jilted, wannabe Secretary of State, Senator Mitt Romney, and former (Thank God) Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan, who continues to undermine his party’s Presidential nominee.

Hillary’s illegal server and destroying subpoenaed evidence… Clinton kept classified and top-secret government documents on a non-secure server at her home, in violation of Federal law. She also used several personal Blackberry devices to conduct both personal and government business. When those devices were subpoenaed by Congress, she deleted and destroyed those devices. When referred for prosecution, FBI Director James Comey made the decision, that he did not have the authority to make, to not charge her with a crime.

Impeachment 1.0… President Trump called Ukraine President Vlodomyr Zelenskyy and requested that he look into potential corruption by Hunter Biden. After “patriot” (partisan) Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman reported his concerns about the call as a whistleblower, all hell broke loose. The democrat led House investigated and sent articles of impeachment to the Senate for trial. Trump was acquitted.

The laptop from Hell and governmental censorship… The FBI maintained a direct channel to social media giants, Facebook and Twitter during the 2020 campaign, to request (demand) that posts they deemed “misinformation” be removed, effectively your government violating the 1st Amendment right to free speech. When the New York Post published an article divulging the deviant and illegal behavior of Hunter Biden, found on his abandoned laptop computer, the Post was banned from social media. When 51 former intelligence officials, mobilized by none other than current Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, decried the laptop as Russian disinformation, the leftist media ran with it. If that is not election interference, nothing is.

Impeachment 2.0… In another first, Donald Trump was impeached again, this time as a private citizen. And you thought it couldn’t get any wilder? Articles of impeachment were filed by the democrat led House one week after a Trump rally in Washington DC where he implored his supporters to “peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.” Unfortunately, things got out of hand, due to a number of factors. Trump was again acquitted.

The January 6th committee… In July of 2021, after failing to convict Trump, House democrats formed the “select” committee on the January 6th attack. A television producer was hired to choreograph the proceedings that were televised in prime time. Exculpatory witnesses were not called to testify, and the committee withheld much of the video from that day. Additionally, when the committee completed their “findings,” evidence was destroyed in violation of Federal law. Trump was referred to the Department of Justice for charges of obstruction of an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the US, conspiracy to make a false statement, and attempt to incite an insurrection.

All is quiet on the western front… Until Trump makes it official, he is running for President again. This drives the democrats crazy, and they will stop at nothing to disqualify him from running for office. Maine, Colorado and Illinois disqualified Trump from being on the ballot, but the US Supreme Court ruled unanimously that those actions were unconstitutional. Lawfare is ongoing as the DOJ and democrat DA’s twist the law in an attempt to convict and jail Trump.

Democrats rant and rave that Trump is a threat to democracy, but democrat actions prove otherwise. Every unconstitutional action by democrats against President Trump is a direct assault against “We the people.” The democrat party has embraced leftism and denounced our Constitution. The democrat party wants to rule by fiat, as if they were royalty. On November 5th “We the people” have it within our power to rebuke those who would rule over us, rather than represent us. It is time to vote democrats out of office, wholesale. It is time that they finally pay for their recklessness. It is time to take back our nation.

But if the laws are to be so trampled upon with impunity, and a minority is to dictate to the majority, there is an end put at one stroke to republican government, and nothing but anarchy and confusion is to be expected thereafter.” George Washington

Blinded by the Light

 

Irrational hatred overcomes reason.

“There are none so blind as those who will not see. There are none so deaf as those who will not hear.” John Heywood. There are those who choose to remain ignorant even though the truth is evident, also known as, “don’t confuse me with facts, I don’t want to hear it.” Persistent ignorance is a choice and, in some cases, it is not unlike a mental disease or disorder. Deliberately closing your mind, refusing to learn, and falling prey to the indoctrination of the leftist mainstream media, parroting democrat talking points and giving credibility to the rantings of unhinged Hollywood elites is irrational. Why then would so many liberals choose to disregard the truth? This reminds us of the cartoon characters who cover their ears and loudly rant and rave as if to shout out anything that disrupts their chosen narrative. This would be humorous but for the fact that this is actually happening on college campuses as wannabe leftist students disrupt any speech deemed to be offensive by their Marxist professors.

Our society has been deliberately divided by left vs. right, liberal vs. conservative, black vs. white, rich vs. poor and gay vs. straight. Rather than celebrating our differences within the “melting pot” that is America, those differences define allies and enemies. Instead of loving our neighbor, lines are drawn that discourage any avenue toward constructive reasoning and honest discussion. Who benefits from a nation in conflict? The events of today, perpetrated by the government, harkens us back to our own United States Declaration of Independence. Within that document is a list of 27 grievances against the King of England, who ruled the Colonies. Elected officials in our current government are effectively treating citizens in a manner similar to the way the King of England treated the colonists, convicting themselves of some those same injustices. (Abbreviated and modernized for content)

1)      Citizen rights and liberties are trampled and ignored. (See COVID, government censorship.)

2)      Governors are not allowed to pass laws intended to protect their citizens without consent of the government. (See US vs. Texas when Texas passed laws, nearly identical to Federal law and the DOJ sued Texas to cease and desist enforcing the same immigration law that the President and Homeland Security refuse to enforce.)

7)      Immigration laws are left unenforced, allowing unfettered immigration to control the population, land ownership and expansion. (See the democrats fighting tooth and nail to allow the census to count all persons, not just citizens, to increase representation for blue states.)

8)      Obstruction of the rule of law by refusing to accept judicial rulings. (See the overturning of Roe V Wade and continuing to forgive student loans after the Supreme Court ruled it unconstitutional.)

9)      Judges are appointed that are partisan and ignore the rule of law and the Constitution. (See the lawfare cases and the rulings.)

10)   New government positions are created to harass and coerce the people. (See 80,000 new IRS agents, mandated DEI.)

27)   Actively uses position of authority to sow division amongst the populace. (See President Biden’s spoken disdain for half of the population.)

It would seem that, despite our differences, we are more alike as we are being used by the very government that is charged to serve us. By hating one another, we are doing exactly as our “rulers” would have us do. And as we bicker and quarrel, politicians continue to enrich themselves, at our expense, while they laugh all the way to the bank. It is time that “we the people” unite and pursue our common enemy. It is time that we remove the veil of hyper-partisanship and embrace the truth. It is time that children of God remember how to love one another. It is time to trust in God, not a government that despises the people.

Back an animal into a corner and they will fight back. We the people have been backed into a corner, but we fight amongst ourselves. Know your enemy. It is the career politicians that consider themselves elites that rule over the populace, refusing to obey their oath of office to represent you. It is time to vote them out of office and elect public servants again. Collectively, we hold the power to form a government that is of, for and by the people. It is time that we all unite and take back this great nation or it will be forever lost.

When the representative body have lost the confidence of their constituents, when they have notoriously made sale of their most valuable rights, when they have assumed to themselves powers which the people never put into their hands, then indeed their continuing in office becomes dangerous to the state.” Thomas Jefferson
