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.
