Community

 

Hatred thrives in on-line solitude.

Human beings need community. Civilization developed to nurture that personal connection. Prolonged solitude turns the soul inward, toward selfishness. Without discussion and debate, we villainize those with values different than our own. Our faith is what drives our very being. Our God created us with an emptiness that can only be filled with an intimate relationship with Him. Corporate worship and Bible study offers us the opportunity to grow together in the Spirit. Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.  For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” Matthew 18:19-20

The lack of face-to-face interactions, instead relying upon the anonymity of device-to-device communication, has afforded users to avoid social interaction. Hiding behind a screen allows one to denounce and attack opposing viewpoints, without actual consequence, and enables animosity to fester. News feeds, X posts, and other social media are tailored by algorithms to each user’s preferences, presenting information that supports the user’s opinions, further isolating them from differing opinions. It has become effortless to foster hate by hiding facts that prevent one from learning both sides of issues. In fact, by filtering out competing news, the full truth is silenced while one side of the argument is amplified.

Incessant rhetoric from the left has increasingly raised the temperature in our political discourse. Democrat party leaders pour gasoline on the fire of division with comments likening their political rivals to Hitler, tyrants, and accuse them of opposition to any other “oppressed” class. Political leaders that stoke division and promote hate must be rejected at the ballot box if they fail to return to God. The constant drumbeat that villainizes those with Christian and conservative values has created tribal warfare as an acceptable response to settle disagreements. There are those who have become so radicalized by hateful leftist ideology that contemplating and/or committing violence has become a viable option.

Charlie Kirk literally accepted Jesus’ call to the Great Commission, to make disciples of the world. He engaged in debate with those who hated him because of his faith and political opinion. Through his platform, Turning Point USA, he literally entered the lion’s den of leftism to respectfully preach the Gospel and truly listen to those who disagreed, while doing his best to reach out with a sincere love of his neighbor.  Charlie was able to plant seeds of faith throughout the universities in which he preached. As democrat leaders mischaracterized, no, willfully lied about Charlie and his views and speech, people believed those lies. And those lies inspired a weak-minded individual to end Charlie’s debate forever with a bullet. We cannot let an assassin’s bullet silence and end the work that Charlie engaged in as he obediently preached the Gospel with the love of Jesus in his heart.

If we fail to engage those who have been unduly influenced by the evil advocated by leftist ideology, they will be lost forever. As Christians it is our duty spread the love of Jesus by preaching the Gospel, unashamedly. “And a servant of the Lord must not be quarrelsome, but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, and forbearing.  He must gently reprove those who oppose him, in the hope that God may grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth.  Then they will come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, who has taken them captive to his will. 2 Timothy 2:24-26.

We have God’s handbook to assist us in performing His will. The Bible contains all the ammunition necessary to speak His Truth. Read it daily. Learn it. Pray on it. Study it with other believers. We can no longer be meek and quiet. We can no longer stand by and let evil overtake our brothers and sisters. No matter how lost our brothers and sisters may become, God loves them unconditionally, just as he loves each of us. There is nothing we can do to make God love us any more. There is nothing that we can do to make God love us any less. We have a duty to proclaim God’s love to the world so that none are lost to the evil one. Plant the seeds that just may encourage them to return to community of faith. Be bold and courageous, armed with the Holy Spirit that dwells within all of us.

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. Pray in the Spirit at all times, with every kind of prayer and petition. To this end, stay alert with all perseverance in your prayers for all the saints.” Ephesians 6:11-12, 18

Funding Evil

 

Your tax dollars at work.

While serving as a police officer in a Milwaukee suburb for almost 30 years, one truth was self-evident; for criminals, it is all about the money. When conducting investigations, following the money most often led right to the criminal(s) that committed the crime. When noted Chicago crime boss Al Capone was finally brought to justice, the most important witness against him was his accountant. Unlawful activities always leave a money trail, no matter how hard the criminals try to obfuscate their culpability. The tangled web that the democrat party has woven is finally unraveling as they fall from power. As their partisan co-conspirators in the deep state are weeded out, the democrat machine is powerless to continue to hide their criminal conspiracies.

As Non-Governmental Agencies (NGOs) and numerous non-profits are audited by DOGE, the money trail that leads to the democrat party and their allies on the left becomes apparent. The malfeasance of the now defunct USAID has been exposed, and numerous grants have been shut down, causing the democrat party to lose a significant portion of their revenue. Your tax dollars are funneled into various “grants” to numerous agencies, who in turn, funnel some of that money into other “affiliated” organizations to complete their purposes. Once “granted” there is little to no oversight or accounting of how or even where that money is spent. In the 1980’s the Defense Department purchased thousands of $5,000.00 hammers, then diverted the “overcharge” to fund covert operations, the $Millions granted to promote child transgenderism and LGTBQ+ programs in Mozambique never were intended to serve that purpose.

USAID was simply a clearinghouse, or more accurately, a deep state money laundering scheme meant to enrich the democrat party. When people reject the policies advocated by the left, the people will no longer support and donate their hard-earned money to them. It then becomes necessary to find alternate ways to bilk the people and how simple it is to reroute funding, that has no oversight, right back into their pockets. Why else would the democrat party fight tooth and nail to maintain USAID and all its funding of such “Important” programs. Desperate times call for desperate measures and the democrat party has never been more desperate. Without access to taxpayer money never intended for them, democrats will lack the funds for their paid protesters, paid ballot harvesters, ActBlue, and all their other paid operatives.

Taxpayer funds are also rerouted to organizations that seek to disrupt and dissolve our Constitutional Republic in order to create a socialist state. Some examples: George Soros’ Open Society uses taxpayer funds funneled to it to elect “progressive” soft on crime District Attorneys that refuse to enforce the law, creating chaos and lawlessness. Additionally, Open Society has given terrorist related groups over $80Million since 2016. Yes, United States taxes have indirectly funded terrorists that seek to destroy us. Planned Parenthood received government funding and donated over $5Million to the Democrat National Committee and $40Million to democrat candidates that support abortion rights in 2024. These are but a few of the stratagems employed by the democrat party to enrich themselves financially, undermine our nation, create turmoil, and foster disunity.

Investigative reporter Ryan Mauro of the Capital Research Center has the receipts in the following articles;  Top Financiers of Intifada   Soros

The left is operating against this nation under the cover of our laws and freedoms. They are using false flag operations to launder US tax dollars to undermine our Republic. Democrats are embracing leftist ideology, aiding and abetting the very forces resolved to destroy us. Accusing the democrat party of treason is a charge that does not encompass the utter depravity of their designs. If democrats ever again seize power, they will drive this nation to ruin. We have a chance to prevent that from happening. A single bullet has birthed a revival. We must stand up for our faith. We must no longer be silent. We must turn out in overwhelming numbers to defeat leftism and turn away the democrat party. Our time has come to take back our nation and turn it back to God. If we fall back into our live and let live torpor, the left will metastasize like the cancer that it is. Will you wake up, serve the Lord, and fulfill your civic duty?

Bad Influence

 

The left’s rhetoric will evoke even more violence.

Democrats are consistent in one part of their messaging, the call to stop President Trump and his supporters by any means necessary. They have gone far beyond simply being obstructionists, they have succeeded in demonizing and dehumanizing their political opponents. Amplified by mainstream media and propagandized through academia, the left’s vile and hateful rhetoric will continue to inspire weak-minded individuals to act out in violence. Even before Charlie Kirk is laid to rest, democrats are doubling down. Social media is ablaze with young aspiring leftists that are celebrating the assassination of a man whose only sin was engaging in respectful dialogue with all sides of the political spectrum.

But democrats were afraid of someone on the right that could convince some of their minions that there were alternatives to their hateful message. Democrats need to silence their critics lest people’s eyes be opened. So, a man who spread the love of Jesus, respected and loved his neighbor, and loved this nation, had to be proclaimed public enemy #1, along with anyone that supports President Trump. Democrats placed a bullseye on Charlie Kirk, whether they will admit it or not. If democrats truly believe that this is a winning strategy, they are truly mistaken. Chuck Schumer, you have indeed released the whirlwind, and you won’t know what hit you after democrat after democrat loses election after election, as you fall further into the minority.

The democrat party has aligned itself with those who despise our nation and the values instilled in it.

“Your rulers are rebels, friends of thieves. They all love bribes and chasing after rewards. They do not defend the fatherless, and the plea of the widow never comes before them.” Isaiah 1:23

The democrat party protects criminals and creates unsafe communities.

“So justice is turned away, and righteousness stands at a distance. For truth has stumbled in the public square, and honesty cannot enter.” Isaiah 59:14

The democrat party has decided to disregard the will of the electorate and promotes issues that the public rejects.

“Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.” Thomas Jefferson

The democrat party is the party that supports murdering unborn children, mutilating confused children with anti-puberty drugs and surgeries.

Jesus said, But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Matthew 18:6

The democrat party celebrates sexual deviancy.

“The first characteristic of sexual sin is deceit. It never delivers what it promises. It offers great satisfaction but gives great disappointment. It claims to be real living but is really the way to death.” John MacArthur

The democrat party is not for the common citizen; they advocate for open borders and benefits for illegal aliens.

“A nation that cannot control its borders is not a nation.” Ronald Reagan

The democrat party are simply liars and purveyors of evil as evidenced by their own words. By any means necessary. That is the democrat mantra. Their goal is to gain and maintain power, no matter what it takes. If it means burning down the country, so be it. They only want to rule to reap the rewards and privilege it extends. Love of money is the root of all evil and many democrats certainly love the wealth that “serving” in public office affords them.

The left despises this nation and all who live by its’ ideals. The democrat party is all in on leftist ideology. It is time that the voters of this nation reward them for their contempt of those they swore to serve. Every democrat that accepts the democrat’s positions on issues that adversely affect this nation should be roundly voted out of office. That is the only way that they will ever consider returning to normalcy.

“He who walks righteously and speaks with sincerity, who refuses gain from extortion, whose hand never takes a bribe, who stops his ears against murderous plots and shuts his eyes tightly against evil—he will dwell on the heights; the mountain fortress will be his refuge; his food will be provided and his water assured.” Isaiah 33:15-16

Make certain your vote is cast appropriately in the ’26 elections. We must call out and make our stand against the evil that is overcoming our nation and world. You, your loved ones, and your nation’s future is at stake.

Justification

 

Justification is the act of providing a good reason or explanation for something, often used in legal contexts to mean a valid defense for an action. It can also refer to the process of being declared righteous or acquitted, especially in religious terms. Google Assistant AI answer.

From the BBC Ethics Guide regarding war;

What is a Just War?

Six conditions must be satisfied for a war to be considered just:

  • The war must be for a just cause.
  • The war must be lawfully declared by a lawful authority.
  • The intention behind the war must be good.
  • All other ways of resolving the problem should have been tried first.
  • There must be a reasonable chance of success.
  • The means used must be in proportion to the end that the war seeks to achieve.

How should a Just War be fought?

A war that starts as a Just War may stop being a Just War if the means used to wage it are inappropriate.

  • Innocent people and non-combatants should not be harmed.
  • Only appropriate force should be used.

·         This applies to both the sort of force, and how much force is used.

  • Internationally agreed conventions regulating war must be obeyed.”

On October 7th, 2023 Hamas attacked Israel, deliberately targeting innocent civilians, ruthlessly killing 1189 and taking 251 hostages back to Gaza. The atrocities committed by Hamas on that day were obscene. Killing babies, raping women, and killing entire families while laughing maniacally during their escapade. It was literally an embodiment of pure evil. There is absolutely no justification for the actions of Hamas on that day.

From the charter of Hamas.

“There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through Jihad. Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are all a waste of time and vain endeavors. The Palestinian people know better than to consent to having their future, rights and fate toyed with.”

“The day that enemies usurp part of Muslim land, Jihad becomes the individual duty of every Muslim. In face of the Jews' usurpation of Palestine, it is compulsory that the banner of Jihad be raised. To do this requires the diffusion of Islamic consciousness among the masses, both on the regional, Arab and Islamic levels. It is necessary to instill the spirit of Jihad in the heart of the nation so that they would confront the enemies and join the ranks of the fighters.”

So much for any chance of reaching a two-state solution.  For Hamas it is their stated goal to pursue only the “from the river to the sea” solution, built upon the dead bodies of every Israeli. To radical Islamists, the only good Jew is a dead Jew. The land of Israel is the ancestral home of the Israelites, given to them by God as the promised land. The Lord said to Moses, “I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites. And I have promised to bring you up out of your affliction in Egypt, into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites—a land flowing with milk and honey.” Exodus 3:8, 17.

Islam accepts that God’s revelation was revealed to the prophets of the Old Testament, Abraham, Moses, Noah, and others, but further believes some of the original text was corrupted (only those that Islam rejects based on a long-standing hostility against Jews) from the revelation, compilation, and canonization of the Old Testament Bible. Conversely, Islam accepts that the Quran was revealed to Mohammed, compiled into written form, much of it after his death. Numerous translations of the Quran were in circulation. Around 650AD one version was canonized, and all others were burned to prevent confusion. Yet, Islam professes the Quran as wholly the word of God, uncorrupted.

Radical Islam and the civilized world cannot coexist. Radical Islamists have used passages of the Quran to justify murdering innocents. Radical Islam cannot and will not legitimately seek peace with Israel and the west. Hamas is populated with Islam-fascists that gleefully wage war against Israel, even as they radicalize and exploit the Palestinian population. This war was begun and escalated by Hamas, and they must be rooted out and eliminated. Yes, this is a just war, and Radical Islam should be rejected wholeheartedly by every Muslim. Until such a time as that occurs, this war must continue until Hamas and their evil ideology is defeated.

"This is what the LORD says: “As for all My evil neighbors who attack the inheritance that I bequeathed to My people Israel, I am about to uproot them from their land, and I will uproot the house of Judah from among them. But after I have uprooted them, I will once again have compassion on them and return each one to his inheritance and to his land.

And if they will diligently learn the ways of My people and swear by My name, saying, ‘As surely as the LORD lives’—just as they once taught My people to swear by Baal—then they will be established among My people. But if they will not obey, then I will uproot that nation; I will uproot it and destroy it, declares the LORD.” Jeremiah 12:14-17

Evil is Real

Satan thrives within the invective spewed by the left.

In 1965, radio host Paul Harvey prophesized what the left and now the democrat party espouses today. If you are unsure that the democrat party has left the farm and, in truth, hates the very nation that they took an oath to represent, read the following transcript.

 “If I were the devil … If I were the Prince of Darkness, I’d want to engulf the whole world in darkness. And I’d have a third of its real estate, and four-fifths of its population, but I wouldn’t be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — Thee. So I’d set about however necessary to take over the United States. I’d subvert the churches first — I’d begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: ‘Do as you please.

To the young, I would whisper that ‘The Bible is a myth.’ I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what’s bad is good, and what’s good is ‘square.’ And the old, I would teach to pray, after me, ‘Our Father, which art in Washington…

And then I’d get organized. I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting, so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting. I’d threaten TV with dirtier movies and vice versa. I’d pedal narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. I’d tranquilize the rest with pills.

If I were the devil, I’d soon have families at war with themselves, churches at war with themselves, and nations at war with themselves; until each in its turn was consumed. And with promises of higher ratings I’d have mesmerizing media fanning the flames. If I were the devil, I would encourage schools to refine young intellects, but neglect to discipline emotions — just let those run wild, until before you knew it, you’d have to have drug sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door.

Within a decade I’d have prisons overflowing, I’d have judges promoting pornography — soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the schoolhouse, and then from the houses of Congress. And in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion and deify science. I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls, and church money. If I were the devil, I’d make the symbols of Easter an egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle.

If I were the devil I’d take from those who have and give to those who want until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious.

And what do you bet I could get whole states to promote gambling as the way to get rich? I would caution against extremes and hard work in Patriotism, in moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old-fashioned, that swinging is more fun, that what you see on the TV is the way to be. And thus, I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure. In other words, if I were the devil I’d just keep right on doing what he’s doing.”

Paul Harvey, good day.

If democrats continue to hold elected office, dominate journalism and academia, evil will spread and thrive. No longer can good people remain silent. Evil hates the light and if exposed, the people will reject it. We cannot be afraid to call out the evil in this world. We must proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We must reach out to our neighbor with love so that those lost in the clutches of the evil one can awake and return to God. If we do nothing evil wins, and silence enables evil.

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

Toxic

 

Hatred spewed by the left claims another victim.

There truly is evil in this world and it is personified by those on the left. To remain relevant, the democrat party is embracing the ideals of leftist ideology. From Brittanica; left, in politics, the portion of the political spectrum associated in general with egalitarianism and popular or state control of the major institutions of political and economic life. The term dates from the 1790s, when in the French revolutionary parliament the socialist representatives sat to the presiding officer’s left. Leftists tend to be hostile to the interests of traditional elites, including the wealthy and members of the aristocracy, and to favour the interests of the working class (see proletariat). They tend to regard social welfare as the most important goal of government. Socialism is the standard leftist ideology in most countries of the world; communism is a more radical leftist ideology.”

Leftists see Obama consider government as the vehicle to maintain control over the masses. Rhetoric can influence those who are weak minded and easy to convince. Democrat leaders, shut out of leadership in elected government, constantly and consistently rail against conservatism and capitalism. Democrat rhetoric has incited their radical base to engage in a fight against an existential threat, as they put it, to the very way of life this nation facilitates. Democrats have used their bully pulpit to ramp up our political divide, using their most rabid supporters to commit acts of violence.

Charlie Kirk was not a purveyor of hatred. He promoted engaging in productive dialogue on college campuses throughout the country. He emphasized his love of Jesus Christ and encouraged others to seek Him. Charlie Kirk did nothing to deserve the wrath of those on the left and his assassination was senseless. We need to be able to debate our differences. We need to be tolerant of all opinions. We need to be able to love and respect our neighbors of different faiths and political beliefs.

Charlie Kirk was a shining example of all that is good in this world. Anyone celebrating his death should take a good long look in the mirror. The left seeks to eliminate God and family. As Christians it is our duty to get involved and make certain our nation does not plummet into the abyss it is seemingly destined to fall. If this is not a call to wake up, I don’t know what is? Are we as Christians and conservatives intent to hide our beliefs under a basket or called to place them on the highest rooftop for all to see? Satan may have won this skirmish, but we know who wins in the end.

“Have I not commanded you to be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

Illegitimate

 Lower Court Judges need to stay in their lane. 

There once was a day where the judiciary was fair, unbiased and adhered to the rule of law. No more. Partisanship reigns, particularly among liberal judges. When the left accuses President Trump of being a "King," the actual kings are judges ruling, not on the merits of the case, but basing their decisions on how they "feel" about the law, respondent, or defendant. In the article below, Justice Gorsuch states it plainly.

Planned Obsolescence

 

Malicious malfeasance dominates NGO’s.

Those of you in my age bracket can remember the days of planned obsolescence. From the auto industry to appliances, each product seemed to be designed as a ticking time-bomb, ready to cease productive function that would perpetually necessitate the product to be replaced. This allowed their business model to keep the product line moving, building more and more replacements, and delivering their companies ever increasing sales income. We spent our hard-earned money on our brand new 1975 Chevrolet Impala that likely would not surpass 60,000 miles before the engine puked or body rusted off, necessitating a trade in for a new model every year or so.

Before the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) identified wasteful government spending, $Billions of our hard-earned tax dollars were diverted to United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for projects that “bettered” the lives of those in need. Those projects and that generosity would portray the United States as a compassionate benefactor to the world. Through USAID, Non-Governmental Agencies were allocated $Billions to support and improve the lives of Americans and the world in need. Unfortunately, just as our money was wasted on products designed to fail, this money was spread around to the benefit of leftist causes that most Americans did not support.

The four top recipients include Catholic Relief Services, which uses federal funding to enable illegal immigrants to avoid ICE prosecution, Chemonics International, which reroutes federal funding to Planned Parenthood organizations and promotes climate “solutions,” FHI 360, that funnels funding toward family planning, reproductive health, and human rights, worldwide. DAI Global, where $100 of millions were diverted away from projects in Nigeria into an account in Bethesda, MD. Just as auto manufacturers took advantage of their customers hard earned dollars, the unfettered and unaccountable allocation of federal tax dollars to these organizations have betrayed the US taxpayer.

Since funding for USAID has been interrupted, so has the fund-raising machine of the democrat party. Coincidence? Federal funds allocated by USAID to these left-wing organizations were returned to the DNC via contributions by those organizations. Understand now why the democrats are fighting so stringently to maintain federal funding to USAID? Without USAID contributing your tax dollars to NGO’s and non-profits and those tax dollars remitted back to their benefactors, the democrat party will be hard pressed to accumulate enough funding for their paid protesters, ballot harvesters, and false campaign advertising.

Tax dollars sent to Ukraine to fund the resistance to Vladamir Putin’s Russia aggression, ends up in oligarch’s pockets while other dollars were sent to Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX cryptocurrency company where they were rerouted to Act Blue, a fundraising arm of the DNC. Act Blue then uses “smurfs”, from lists of persons who made previous donations to the DNC, and makes numerous small donations in those names, that add up to $Millions, that are then funneled back to the DNC without the donor’s knowledge or permission. Quite the operation, isn’t it? Organized crime is small time compared to the money laundering engaged in by the democrat party. Yet, there are those that blindly support democrats that, in reality, turn against their constituency’s self-interests. “The career politicians in Washington have transformed a government “for and by the people” into a government for themselves and for special interests.” Tom Coburn. What a tangled web they weave!

“Extortion turns wise people into fools, and bribes corrupt the heart.” Ecclesiastes 7:7. For decades career politicians and the deep state has corrupted our government and have enriched themselves with our money. Democrats have perfected the scheme and many of our elected officials have become millionaires trading on their position while on the public dime. “Furthermore, select capable men from among the people—God-fearing, trustworthy men who are averse to dishonest gain. Appoint them over the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.” Exodus 18:21.

God’s Word is wise and enduring, especially today. We must select leaders that follow the Lord and keep His statutes. We need leaders who accept and practice the morals and ethics that mirror Scripture. We need leaders that are selfless and humble, averse to dishonest gain. We need leaders that work for the betterment of their constituency. We need leaders that are true public servants, not self-serving! It is up to us to get involved, get informed, and go out and vote for leaders that are pleasing to God.

“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” John C. Maxwell

Democrat leaders embolden lawlessness.

What we experience today often mirrors a world that has been imagined in works of fiction. Authors invent circumstances that would appear to be far from reality, but in today’s upside-down world fiction replaces reality as the left embraces the absurd. Democrats focus much of their energy emulating dogma taken from a number of well-known novels that envision dystopian societies.

George Orwell’s novel 1984 portends of a totalitarian society ruled by Big Brother that seeks to control all aspects of the people’s lives. “Who controls the past controls the future.” “Ignorance is strength.” Fact becomes fiction as the unhinged left works feverishly to destroy democracy, replace it with socialism, and with that, create a dystopian society where the Constitution is torn up and freedoms curtailed. Leftists are more than content to rule over the ashes.

In George Orwell’s Animal Farm, some of the animals were deemed, “more equal” than others. “If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” DEI, ESG, and other “woke” ideology seeks to elevate individuals solely based upon the color of one’s skin, not the content of one’s character or merit. So much for working towards a color-blind society.

In Ray Bradbury’s novel Fahrenheit 451, books were banned and if any were discovered, firemen were tasked to burn them. “A book is a loaded gun in the house next door…Who knows who might be the target of the well-read man?” During Joe Biden’s administration, his Department of Justice colluded with social media companies to control their chosen narrative and censor speech in which they disagreed. Dissenters were cancelled and shadow banned, including the nation’s longest operating newspaper, the New York Post.

Sean Connery’s role as James Bond 007 came with the caveat, “license to kill.” Democrats unhinged, capricious, and incessant ranting against our President and Republicans have incited weak-minded individuals to commit numerous acts of violence. In some cases, democrats have attempted to justify that violence. Well, Senator Schumer, you certainly have unleashed a whirlwind of mayhem and lawlessness.

An encounter with a transvestite is the subject of the 1970 Kinks song, Lola, “Boys will be girls and girls will be boys, it’s a mixed up muddled up shook up world.” Today the democrat party, leftist ideologues, and useful idiot liberals promote transgender medical intervention for children too young to understand the concept of gender and sexuality. In a society that prohibits minors from obtaining a tattoo, requires attaining the age of 21 in order to legally drink alcoholic beverages, and demands parental approval for school field trip attendance, attempting to encourage gender dysphoria in children certainly fits the bill as a mixed up, muddled, and shook-up world!

Mainstream or moderate democrats have become a scarce commodity as leftist ideology has been mainstreamed into the ethos of this misguided political party. Democrats take the low road as their rhetoric devolves from constructive dialogue into name calling and foul language. Democrats utter lack of respect for any opinions that differ from their chosen narrative cause them to revile and reject those in which they disagree. There is no compromise. There is no common ground. Democrats decide to die on the hill advocating for ideology that only a tiny minority truly support. Evil has come out into the light and the democrats are exposed for what they really are.

All bets are off while absurdity reigns. Hate your neighbors if they are conservative. Unfriend anyone who had the audacity to vote for Trump. Shun your family at Christmas and Thanksgiving dinners if they are conservative. Justify violence in the name of saving democracy from the false narrative of an “existential” threat. Fight Trump and Republicans by all means necessary, even if it is at a great cost to this nation.

Democrats have been overwhelmed by the mass hysteria that is Trump Derangement Syndrome. Many others are also inflicted with this disease, as they blindly follow in lockstep with the narrative parroted by a left leaning media. “Whoever is filled with hate disguises it with his speech, but inside he holds on to deceit. When he talks charmingly, do not trust him because of the seven disgusting things in his heart. His hatred is deceitfully hidden, but his wickedness will be revealed to the community.” Proverbs 26:24-26. Adam Schiff, Leticia James, Nancy Pelosi, and of all those that use their political office to enrich themselves, democrats dominate the list. Democrats’ wickedness and deceit is being revealed daily. This verse seems to fit today’s democrat party to a tee.

“Regarding the transgression of the wicked man: There is no fear of God before his eyes. For his eyes are too full of conceit to detect or hate his own sin. The words of his mouth are wicked and deceitful; he has ceased to be wise and well-doing. Even on his bed he plots wickedness; he sets himself on a path that is not good; he fails to reject evil.” Psalm 36:1-4

The evil that has overwhelmed the democrat party must be rejected. If democrats refuse to moderate and return to some semblance of normalcy, they must be soundly rejected at the ballot box.

Tribalism,

 

Or how to destroy a nation in five six easy steps.

Humans introduced the first machinations of society when they gathered into tribal groups, leaning on each other to provide security, share resources, and form into a community. The strongest among them arose to be their leaders. As more tribes emerged, they began to engage in conflicts with each other, primarily over limited resources, and land. Society continued to evolve, eventually forming nations held together by common beliefs and protections those nations provided. Unfortunately, the tribal mentality persisted, conflicts grew, leading to wars that went beyond resources and land. Wars have since evolved to include conflicts over differing political ideologies and religions.

It is commonly thought that the US Civil War was fought over the issue of slavery. Actually, it was not simply about slavery. The southern states chose to ignore federal laws, asserting States' rights over federal authority, and refused to end slavery because they believed it was essential to sustain their agricultural economy. The conflict began when the southern States voted to secede from the union, forming the Confederate States of America. Unfortunately, history has a way of repeating itself as one political party has established their own tribe and has declared war on the current administration, the rule of law, and the citizens of the United States.

We are on the cusp of another civil war, not fought with weapons of war, but against ideology that is just as perilous.

·         Engage in lawfare - Dangerous and radical warfare divides this nation, with leftists attempting to overturn traditional America. Executive actions by the Trump administration, meant to create a path back to normalcy, are derailed by hundreds of lawsuits filed in sympathetic venues. Radical, leftist judges, that lack the Constitutional authority to do so, constrain the executive branch with nationwide injunctions. Democrat run cities and states refuse to cooperate with federal law enforcement, creating “sanctuaries” for lawbreakers. When states ignore federal statutes and judges disregard the law when they happen to disagree politically, that is what creates a real constitutional crisis.

·         Victimize Americans - Democrats have deliberately perverted the rule of law by lifting the “rights” of criminals, in particular illegal alien criminals, over the rights of the victims of crime. Criminals in democrat run cities run amok as democrats support and elect District Attorneys that “decriminalize” the law, refuse to hold law breakers accountable, and release violent offenders back into the community, failing in their responsibility to maintain public safety. Democrats push for “responsible gun reform” so that crime victims will no longer be able to defend themselves.

·         Fight to restrict the 1st Amendment - Vilifying any viewpoints not in line with the left’s chosen narrative has effectively corrupted free speech. The left’s attempt to control misinformation and disinformation demeans the public’s ability to apply common sense and reason. The leftist strategy of refusing to engage in debate, while overemphasizing the hatred of their political opponents, is embraced by democrats as they foolishly believe it to be an effective avenue to regain political power.

·         Double down on transgenderism and sexual deviancy – Democrats continue to promote the anti-science belief that, somehow, gender is fluid, and up to the interpretation of the individual. They advocate for children to choose their gender behind their parent’s backs when minors cannot lawfully choose to attend a school field trip without parental consent. The left cannot define what a woman is yet believe that men can become women and women can become men. Advances made to equalize women within society have been quashed by this misguided effort to affirm those afflicted by the mental illness of gender dysphoria. Preferred pronouns? Normalizing drag queens and those who identify as animals is ludicrous. Debauchery and deviant sexual behavior contributed to the fall of Rome, and it risks destroying the fabric of society and this nation.

·         Support and encourage Anti-Christianity and antisemitism -  “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!” This has become the rallying cry for the democrat party. They accuse Israel of occupying their own country and accuse them of committing genocide while ignoring the heinous Hamas attack on October 7th. Christianity is debased and Christians are attacked as racist, homophobic, and exclusionary. The nuclear family has been decimated, particularly in the African American community as government entitlements replace the father. Welfare provides just enough benefits to discourage the work ethic of those receiving it.

·         Encourage racial animosity – Democrats use the term racism as a cudgel, employing it as a wedge to divide the nation. Using Critical Race Theory and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion ideology, persons of color are taught to hate white people and white people learn to hate themselves. Forcing children to see skin color as a defining quality of a person is tantamount to promoting racism as an acceptable behavior.

This is what democrats believe will win back the hearts and minds of America. Democrats are engaging in a concerted effort to destroy the very fabric of society. Their foray into this realm of fantasy must end and they must return to normalcy. There is nothing positive in their strategy of dividing and conquering. The democrat party has no answers. The democrat party has no plan for this nation. They only trade in hatred and division. Democrats must be rejected and shunned until such a time as they decide to moderate their positions and work for the betterment of the people they swore an oath to serve.

Democrats and their co-conspirators in the legacy media have placed all of their eggs in a basket that seeks to derail Trump’s agenda, cheerleading for his policies to fail and along with it, this nation. Sowing dissention and creating chaos should never take precedence over bipartisanship while conducting the people’s business. It is time that they are recognized for what they are, obfuscators, impediments against what is right, and purveyors of evil.

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who turn darkness to light and light to darkness, who replace bitter with sweet and sweet with bitter.” Isaiah 5:20

Mass Hysteria

Overdosing on leftist propaganda Kool-Aid.

It appears that we are living in an episode of the Babylon Bee or that the news is simply an “Onion” parody, but the collective psychosis all around us is very real. The siren call of the left is to resist, conflating it as a call to a higher purpose, but they are not engaging in a fight to save democracy. They are obstructing a government that is endeavoring to return to its intended purpose, to be by, of, and for the people. These “useful idiots,” many paid to protest without the faintest idea of why they have gathered, vandalize the “oppressors,” and shout down all who dare to deliver truth. If only they would devote themselves to actions that benefit society, rather than continually sowing the seeds of discontent…

How is it appropriate for employees of the federal government to actively undermine a duly elected President’s administration by ignoring lawful directives should they disagree politically? Those federal employees serve the public, who elected the President with a majority and a clear mandate, are rejecting the will of the very people whose tax dollars provide their salaries. Why was there not a concerted effort by the bureaucratic state to obstruct the policies of the Biden administration? No matter who leads the nation from the oval office, policy directives, if lawful, must be implemented no matter what your personal beliefs may be.

How are we as a nation justifying deliberate defiance to the rule of law? Is law-breaking defensible if one’s political ideology is not aligned with the duly elected President? Hennepin County, Minnesota; Dylan Bryan Adams, a staffer with Governor Tim Walz’ administration is arrested after vandalizing several Teslas, causing over $20,000.00 damage. The George Soros backed democrat District Attorney refuses to prosecute. Days later, a first-time offender, keyed a fellow employee’s car, causing $7500.00 worth of damage and is charged with a felony by that same D. A.

Milwaukee County Wisconsin; Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan willfully obstructs ICE agents with a valid detainer, by shielding an illegal alien and his attorney, allowing access through a non-public area for them to escape the courthouse out of sight of ICE agents. Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers issues a directive to all State employees to not cooperate with immigration officials, along with guidance to obstruct, blatantly defying Federal immigration authority. What is the common denominator in each of these incidents, the elected officials are all democrats. Yes, those same democrats that rail about the rule of law and that President Trump is an existential threat to democracy pick and choose what laws they will obey.

Democrat Wisconsin Assemblyman Ryan Clancy said in an interview on CNN, “Judge Dugan is doing what all of us will be called to do in the days and weeks and months to come, and it’s standing up for people in our community that are being targeted by the Trump regime.” If that seems like a call to action against a duly elected President by an elected representative that is tantamount to treason, it is! This is today’s democrat party, the true threat to the rule of law and our Constitutional Republic. Millionaires Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’ anti oligarchy tour would be comical except that many truly believe their drivel. This is just more democrat lies that stoke the anger of those who would engage in violence against their perceived enemies.

It is time for our nation to wake up and reject the dangerous lies that the democrat party is spreading. It is time to realize that we have differing opinions and to respect those persons without vilifying them. It is time that the democrat party fulfill their oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

Democrats have chosen to disregard their oath of office by deliberately revolting against a President, elected by a majority of the people, by any means necessary. If they succeed, our nation will be lost. This is not a call to arms. This is a wakeup call to all citizens that love this nation and the freedoms it affords us. The evil that the democrats are abetting must be resisted. Any democrat politician that supports the treasonous actions of their party must be removed from positions of authority and this must occur at the ballot box. If the democrat party refuses to return to bipartisanship and work with Republican lawmakers, it is time for the democrat party to fade into the sunset. If their only option is to work against the people who elected them, then our only option is to help make them an insignificant minority.

Counterfeit Grievance

 The left tries to normalize violence.

Just as aberrant sexual behavior has been normalized with the assistance of the left, they attempt to validate the use of “righteous” violence to advance perceived grievances.

Why do You make me see iniquity? Why do You tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before me. Strife is ongoing, and conflict abounds. Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never goes forth. For the wicked hem in the righteous, so that justice is perverted. Habakkuk 1:3-4

It never ceases to amaze me that Scripture, even the Old Testament, is so very pertinent to today. What is happening today has happened before. The evil one and his minions continue to use the same tired playbook. Perhaps, now the people will not continue to fall for those same tricks. Democrats are the perverters of justice. Their playbook fosters division, embraces lies, and denies common sense. Their accusations, although amplified by a compliant media, are a steady stream of falsehoods and delusions.

The organized attacks on Tesla dealerships, charging stations, and owner is not just mind numbingly wrong-headed, it is terribly misguided. Leftist true believers and paid thugs carry out the marching orders of the democrat elite. “Let the pawns expose themselves to danger,” while the leftist democrat leaders use their minions to preplan and carry out their misdeeds that endanger our nation’s rule of law. For democrats, the rule of law is to be bent, folded, and mutilated to their advantage. You see, the ends justify the means.

During the riots of the summer of 2020, our Department of Justice simply engaged in catch and release. During and after the events of January 6th, 2021, the Department of Justice left no stone unturned to bring anyone at the Capital to “justice.”

“What my enemies say can never be trusted; they only want to destroy. Their words are flattering and smooth, but full of deadly deceit.” Psalms 5:9

Under the guise of protecting democracy, $Billions of property damage, numerous lives lost, and hundreds injured, leftist rioters were granted leniency in 2020, while even peaceful trespassers on January 6th were prosecuted well beyond the scope of their transgressions. Yes, democrats lied to the American people about the “insurrection” on January 6th while they minimized the “mostly peaceful” riots after George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis Police. Antifa and Black Lives Matter thugs we let off with municipal citations, when they committed felonies, while grandmothers strolling through open doors at the Capital were given four-year sentences.

“So justice is turned away, and righteousness stands at a distance. For truth has stumbled in the public square, and honesty cannot enter. Truth is missing, and whoever turns from evil becomes prey. The LORD looked and was displeased that there was no justice.” Isaiah 59:14-15

Ken Martin, the Democrat National Committee Chair is instituting a “people’s cabinet” to actively undermine a duly elected President and his administration. Tim Walz, the 2024 democrat Vice-Presidential candidate had earlier called for a “shadow government” to derail and counter any policy initiatives proposed by President Trump. In this case the democrats are not propagating lies, they do admit to conspiring to commit treason against the sitting President, elected by a majority of Americans. The utter contempt that democrats have for the people is staggering. They utterly fail to govern by refusing to even try.

Yet, the democrat party’s biggest failure is their inability to discern right from wrong. To them, violence is a way to regain power. To them, continuing to support waste, fraud, and inefficiency in government maintains the money flow to their party. To them, their party is everything. To them, the people are merely pawns to help them get what they want.

“Truth is relative. Truth is what you can make the voter believe is the truth. If you're smart enough, truth is what you make the voter think it is. That's why I'm a Democrat. I can make the Democratic voters think whatever I want them to.” James Carville, democrat strategist.

Democrats think Americans are stupid. Democrats only obey the law when it serves their self-interests. Democrats have chosen their side, and it is not on the side of freedom. Democrats, simply put, are in league with Satan because they believe that better serves their purpose than moderating their positions in order to serve God.

“Those who corrupt the public mind are just as evil as those who steal from the public purse.” Adlai E. Stevenson.

The democrat party commits both offenses with their rhetoric and their malfeasance. They must be exposed for what they truly are and face the appropriate consequences. With DOGE following the money, hopefully that will happen sooner than later.

Loyal Opposition

 

The key to a functional democracy.

Per the Mirriam-Webster dictionary; a minority party especially in a legislative body whose opposition to the party in power is constructive, responsible, and bounded by loyalty to fundamental interests and principles. A well-fortified minority will tend to improve legislative debate and can become a genuine loyal opposition.

·         Minority Party

Even though they seem to have failed to grasp this fact, democrats are the minority party and as such, they need work with the majority in order to legitimately govern in the United States Congress. The minority cannot pass any legislative bills without votes from the majority party. They do not hold leadership positions in either the House or Senate. They do not chair any committees. Any legislation desired by democrats must first be approved and moved to the floor for debate by the majority leader. Although the legacy media amplifies democrat denunciations, they do so with the realization that democrats are powerless to impose their will due to their minority standing. This is how a Constitutional Republic is supposed to function. As Barack Obama famously declared, “Elections have consequences.”

·         Opposition Party

Democrats certainly do check the opposition box, as they obstruct the majority party, and vehemently oppose any policy actions brought forward by the administration. With lawsuits filed before hand-picked radical leftist judges they attempt to derail the administration’s agenda. Under the umbrella of the democrat party, their allies organize protests, disrupt Congressional member’s town halls, and foment violence against their “enemies.” Democrat leaders, not only fail to denounce the violence, but they also attempt to justify these unlawful actions. Democrats have become the bitter clingers as Obama accused conservatives. They cling to their strawman arguments, condemning the 1%, accusing others of being existential threats to democracy that they themselves have become, and worshiping at the altar of government largesse.

·         Constructive

They refuse to engage in any meaningful, bipartisan, or constructive debate to conduct the people’s business, instead, consistently with explicit rancor, condemn their counterparts, accusing them of the very behavior they themselves engage in. Democrats erect a virtual wall between themselves and any semblance of bipartisanship, chastising their own if they dare to challenge their chosen narrative. Denouncing policies that a vast majority of the populace supports leaves the democrats on an island. They continue to support leftist ideology that is soundly rejected by their constituency. Democrats criticize DOGE and Elon Musk when waste, fraud, and inefficiencies are exposed, choosing to protect their public sector union benefactors rather than the taxpayers they are charged to represent. As always, the people are on the short end of this bargain.

·         Responsible

Democrats have exchanged responsible actions with reprehensible behavior. They shout blatant lies from the mountaintops, from declaring MAGA an existential threat to democracy to Elon Musk is stealing Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid from you. Pushing a false narrative has never hampered democrats if those lies further their quest for money and power. We have witnessed the weak-minded individuals that have lashed out in violence in response to democrat lies.

·         Loyal

Democrat loyalty remains with the leftist ideology that they still believe is the best option to remain in and regain power. They willfully ignore the Constitution by manipulating voting rules, immigration laws, and continue to engage in lawfare, using rogue, leftist judges to hamstring the duly elected President’s, and by virtue of his election, the people’s agenda.

·         Well-fortified minority

Democrats are fortified by money from left wing organizations and the usual suspects, George Soros, Reid Hoffman, and their ilk. ActBlue, NGO’s, and non-profits launder money and provide cover for democrat illegal campaign fund raising, while furthering illegal immigration schemes, voter fraud, and other leftist goals.

·         Fundamental interests and principals

Democrats are fundamentally opposed to whatever gets in the way of their own self-interests, including their constituency. Their principals have devolved into unconditional support for transgenderism, illegal immigration, and stopping Trump by any means necessary. Opposition to school choice, when public schools are failing miserably, is evidence that their teacher’s union benefactors are paramount in their decision making.

·         Improve legislative debate

Debate in Congress has devolved into shouting matches, derogatory accusations, and downright disruptive behavior by democrats.

Democrats have proven that they have totally disregarded their duty as the loyal opposition and have become merely a conduit for leftist ideology. Democrats will burn the country down if it means they can regain power and rule over the ashes. The democrat party has lost support, exponentially as they are viewed as an obstructive body. In a recent poll, less than 50% of democrats support their own party. Democrats need to be marginalized until such a time as they choose to moderate their extreme positions. If they fail to do so, they need to be voted out of office, wholesale.

Simon Says..

 

Legacy media pushes the narrative.

Today, with simply a touch on a plethora of devices, one can access so much media content that no one can complain that they are out of touch. “X,” Truth Social, Rumble, podcasts, Instagram, TikTok, and the list goes on and on, affording the consumer various points of view, from conspiracy theory to local issues. One thing that is obvious is that the legacy media has become an echo chamber for the democrat party and leftist ideology. Coverage from one network to the next are nearly identical, utilizing the same talking points. Yet, the legacy media continues to entrap the gullible into blindly accepting their chosen narrative. Perhaps we need to look to history and realize when we are being fed propaganda.

Trump Derangement Syndrome has morphed into an overriding paranoia for far too many. Those who suffer from this all-consuming hatred jeopardize their own sanity. Much like the “useful idiots” in the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany, they will shun their family if they support MAGA and will “dox” friends and family that are Republican. Anything the Trump administration proposes are fought to the bitter end, even if American society benefits from the programs. This is absolute lunacy and any community leader with the unbridled audacity to support this type of hatred should be called out.

College students that follow their professor’s insane leftist-anti American screeds to support Hamas, Hezbollah, and their ilk, particularly the LGTBQI+ for Palestine are the poster children for all that is wrong with higher education. Students that rail against free speech, meritocracy, and capitalism, simply parrot talking points without any real understanding of their alleged “grievances.” Foreign guests, taking advantage of our educational system, rail against the very nation that affords them the opportunity.

For those that can rationally think, Donald Trump is President for every citizen of the United States, whether you support him or not. Rational thinkers accepted Joe Biden as the President and supported policies that benefited the people of this great nation. TDS sufferers cannot support anything that the Trump administration is doing, even if it benefits the nation. TDS sufferers are unhinged and lost in a fog of irrational hate. TDS sufferers need to take a step back, reassess their priorities, and get a grasp on reality.

Organized protests and criminal vandals are targeting Tesla owners, Tesla Dealerships, and Tesla charging stations, aimed at harming Elon Musk and deterring his efforts with DOGE. And the silence from democrat leaders whose rhetoric fomented this violence is deafening. The legacy media fail to condemn these criminal acts, instead equating this deranged violence with the January 6th rioting.  What sense does that make? Both should be roundly condemned. These “virtue preening” idiots are disturbed individuals that accept a false narrative.

Legacy media condemns Musk for financially supporting Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice candidate Brad Schimel while they ignore the fact that George Soros and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker have donated to the campaign of his opponent, Susan Crawford. And there are those who blindly accept this reporting as truth, condemning Musk for trying to buy a Supreme Court seat. Cherry picked news reports of a Danish man refusing to purchase American made products, “economists” claiming that tariffs will drive inflation, and emphasizing any other information that discredits Trump. What they fail to understand is that they are not only driving public opinion in the US, but they are also casting aspersions upon this nation, worldwide. When this nation thrives, so do its’ citizens. When this nation thrives, the economy roars. When this nation thrives, everyone is lifted upon the waves of prosperity. Democrat leadership and the legacy media’s constant denigrations of the Trump administration are detrimental to our nation. We are all damaged when world opinion turns against us.

Journalism requires that reporting be factual and unbiased. Legacy media does neither. Our God gave us minds to reason and the ability to ascertain right from wrong. It is time that we use our minds to determine what is truth and follow it. It is time to determine what is lies and reject it. It is time to call out those who use their positions of authority to feed us lie upon lie. It is time for our nation to engage in rational thought rather than falling prey to irrational emotional responses. It is time for our nation to understand how destructive unrestrained hatred can be to mental well-being. It is time we relearned as a nation to love our neighbor as ourselves.

“Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.” Romans 13:10

Spoiled Rotten

 

Entitled petulance reigns supreme.

Government largesse has risen well beyond anything that could possibly have haunted the founders in their worst nightmares. Government no longer provides just services that are mandated, taxpayer dollars are spent as if there is an infinite supply of funds for all manner of, not only unnecessary services, but those that government has no business providing. When this great nation was founded, power to the federal government was intentionally limited. The majority of the power was delegated to the States. The US Constitution tasked the federal government to provide for a national defense, finance the government, transact with foreign nations, regulate commerce, and any matters that impacts all states.

Today, the federal government employs over 2 million people, operates 15 departments and over 400 agencies. Since Congress has been unable to pass a budget, Congress has used a continuing resolution to fund the government. The federal government spent in excess of $6.8 Trillion in 2024 and has spent over $3 Trillion so far in fiscal year 2025. The national debt is approaching $36 Trillion. Interest payments on the debt are approaching $1 Trillion annually. Currently, the federal government spends more than $1 Trillion over their receipt of taxes and fees collected. Every year overspending leads to increasing the national debt. The federal government borrows over $1.5 Trillion per year. This is absolutely not sustainable.

Without reduced spending, the US will become a debtor’s nation, beholding to those who hold our debt. Or worse yet, our currency will no longer be amenable as an investment, and we will no longer be able to secure those loans. If the US dollar loses value on the world stage, other countries will no longer trade in the dollar, setting the stage for hyper-inflation. Without reduced spending, Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid will become insolvent. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was instituted to root out fraud, waste, and create efficiencies in the federal government. It has paid dividends in identifying wasteful programs to the tune of over $100 Billion in its’ first month of existence. Yet, democrats cry bloody murder over the possibility of downsizing and creating a more efficient government. Democrats sue and radical judges enjoin the executive branch. George Soros funds leftist protests that vilify the process of identifying fraud and those exposing a government run amok. How could forcing government to be accountable to the people be problematic?

President Trump has already declared Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid as off limits to any cuts in benefits. Any cuts made will to be to end the fraud and waste that is discovered, and it is estimated that Medicare fraud is in excess of $100 Billion annually, Social Security over $700 Billion, and Medicaid over $100 Billion. There is almost $1 Trillion that is depleting those entitlements every year, bringing those programs ever closer to bankruptcy. Yet, democrats cry in unison that Trump is going to eliminate those benefits and the legacy media amplifies their false complaints. Democrats are bitter clingers to their bloated, wasteful government and the benefits they derive from fraudulent spending. Do the math. How can so many of our elected representatives, from both parties, inflate their net worth by 10’s of Millions while earning an annual salary of under $200,000? The question is, where is that money coming from? Is it just from “shrewd” stock trading, or something more nefarious?

“A merchant loves to defraud with dishonest scales in his hands. And Ephraim boasts: “How rich I have become! I have found wealth for myself. In all my labors, they can find in me no iniquity that is sinful.” Hosea 12:7-8

Legacy programs that many depend upon for retirement and medical benefits is in danger of failing. Waste and fraud are sucking the very lifeblood from those programs. Without eliminating the bloat, inefficiency, waste, and fraud, what will those who depend upon those programs do when the benefits end? Democrats should be cheering Elon and DOGE so that their constituents can enjoy their retirement without fear of losing their homes, feeding themselves, and having the wherewithal to receive necessary medical treatment. Before Trump was President, many of the democrat leaders bemoaned the waste and fraud and called for reform. The reason for the change of heart is apparent. Obstructing Trump is more important than saving Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. They are hellbent to destroy Trump even if it means destroying this nation.

“Then you will discern righteousness and justice and equity—every good path. For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will delight your soul. Discretion will watch over you, and understanding will guard you, to deliver you from the way of evil, from the man who speaks perversity, from those who leave the straight paths to walk in the ways of darkness, from those who enjoy doing evil and rejoice in the twistedness of evil, whose paths are crooked and whose ways are devious.” Proverbs 2:9-15

Yet there are those that say Scripture does not pertain to current times.

If at First You don’t Succeed

 

Lie, lie again!

As the democrat party fades into irrelevancy, they have launched a strategy to use outright lies to undermine the Trump administration. There is no nuance to their actions since they have nothing valid to offer this nation, other than bitter hatred of Trump. The democrat party was rejected in the 2024 election, yet they continue to embrace insane leftist ideology. Democrats have lost their way. They stubbornly cling to all things woke, even though this often places them at odds with 70-80% of the population. Not only is the democrat party failing to adjust their strategy to align with common sense societal values, they refuse to acknowledge the error of their ways.

Democrats on transgenderism – They remain steadfast in their belief that little Johnny can become little Janet and that if the child chooses to alter their gender, parents need not be consulted. It is ideology over reality. They approve of chosen gender pronouns, gender reassignment surgeries, and life altering puberty blocking drugs for minors. Anyone else that is gender confused can obtain medical treatments at government expense, including those imprisoned. Male inmates can elect to be housed with females if they claim that they are women. There are no unforeseen consequences to those actions that could occur?

Democrats on LGTBQI+ - Woke school boards allow pornographic homosexual novels to be placed in elementary school libraries. The very same books, when read aloud by parents at a school board meeting are shut down due to their graphic nature. Pride flags flown proudly at democrat state capitols take the place of state and POW flags. Pride parades that are no more than an excuse for homosexual exhibitionism are celebrated. Pride month? Where do their priorities lie?

Democrats on fraud, waste, and bloated bureaucracy – It would seem that making government more efficient and accountable would be an issue that transcends politics, but democrats are fighting DOGE tooth and nail. They are beholden to the public sector unions that funnel $Millions to the DNC. Unfortunately, some elected officials may find themselves in hot water once Elon and his compatriots follow the money trail from these bloated agencies. Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are facing insolvency in the next decade. If we cannot trim down the federal budget, those entitlements could be severely reduced. Interest payments on the national debt is approaching $1Trillon annually. Democrats continue to accuse Trump of trying to gut those programs, when their obstructionism will adversely affect the solvency of those programs.

Democrats on “saving our democracy” – over 100 lawsuits have been filed to obstruct legitimate executive actions by cherry picking radical leftist judges, most that have no jurisdiction on the matter, then have the audacity to issue orders to the President. Imagine that, a US District Court Judge issuing rulings that restrict the executive branch from carrying out Constitutionally protected duties and executive orders. Next federal laws, upheld as constitutional will be struck down by any radical leftist judge and the democrats will approve.

Democrats as the “loyal opposition” party – Resist, obstruct, derail, lie, and whatever else is necessary to destroy not only the Trump administration, but the majority of this nation that elected him. Not only has their rhetoric influenced radicals within the US, it has emboldened other nations to act brazenly against the US. Our nation’s world standing has suffered as democrats continually rebuke every White House statement or action.

Democrats on tariffs – Other nations have accumulated massive trade surpluses with the US due to their imposing tariffs on US goods. Canada has amassed over $60 Billion, Mexico over $150 Billion annually. Democrats lambast President Trump’s reciprocal tariffs as “inflationary” when the reciprocity will simply level the playing field and likely lower other countries tariffs on the US. Democrats are wrong again and their resistance will ultimately harm the US consumer.

The list could go on, but democrats have made the choice to be on the wrong side of history, yet they resist changing direction. Unless they return to a semblance of normalcy and begin to prioritize serving the people again, rather than being the obstructionists that they now are, they will fade into oblivion. And it will be well deserved.

A worthless person, a wicked man, walks with a perverse mouth, winking his eyes, speaking with his feet, and pointing with his fingers. With deceit in his heart he devises evil; he continually sows discord. Therefore calamity will come upon him suddenly; in an instant he will be shattered beyond recovery. Proverbs 6:12-15.

Sound a bit like today’s democrat party? Well, if the shoe fits, wear it!
