Weaponized Ignorance

 

Worshipping worldly aspirations.

Shout out to Senator John Kennedy for coining the term “weaponized ignorance.” Virtue signalers. Transgender activists. Global warming disciples. Defenders of illegal alien criminals. Hamas supporters, antisemites, and Islam lovers. Socialism aficionados. Public education indoctrinators. Avowed leftists. Race baiters. The ever leftward leaning media. Useful idiots all. Ignorance can take many forms and can be weaponized in a variety of behaviors. Intelligence is not a prerequisite for the activist class.

“The vocabulary of the political left is fascinating. For example, it is considered to be 'materialistic' and 'greedy' to want to keep what you have earned. But it is 'idealistic' to want to take away what someone else has earned and spend it for your own political benefit or to feel good about yourself.” Thomas Sowell

Intelligence is definitely not required for public service. Perhaps candidates need to pass a test prior to placement on the ballot. This would absolutely improve the quality of our elected representatives, but a better-informed public would be able to prevent the absurdity that exists today.

“The best defense of democracy is an informed electorate.” Thomas Jefferson

The right to peacefully protest and to petition the government for a remedy for their grievances is enshrined in the 1st Amendment to the US Constitution. Leftist funded anarchists, paid protesters, and self-proclaimed do-gooders attend well organized and often violent demonstrations. Those are not peaceful protests. Those demonstrations are not to petition government for valid grievances. Those are insurrections, carefully planned to create chaos and organize a rebellion.

“Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.” Isaac Asimov

Far too many of our public education institutions allow, or perhaps encourage, indoctrination of students to leftist ideology. Rather than educate those students to be productive members of society, they create automatons incapable of rational thought, spouting slogans spoon fed to them by leftist “educators.” Public schools in the US are failing. Test scores are falling below those of some third world countries. Our future leaders are emerging from the rot ingested from our schools and universities.

“In addition to an education, kids were supposed to graduate with some basic values, self-discipline, and life skills. A little common sense wouldn't hurt either. Our schools don't teach that anymore. Instead, we're more concerned about kids having self-esteem and feeling good about themselves than we are about preparing them for real life. The politically correct crowd has taken over our schools, and as a result we are failing our children.” Donald J. Trump

Rational people operate within the rules of civil society and tend to make logical decisions. Irrational people make poor decisions and defy the rules of order without regard to the consequences of their actions. The left has created a generation of irrational people that are used to further the cause of fundamentally transforming this nation into something it was never intended to be. Irrational hatred drives the speech and actions of these deranged leftists. And that hate has spread to erstwhile “normal” liberals and democrats. Unhinged attacks upon the very freedoms protecting the citizens of this nation push society ever closer to a new civil war.

“Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true.” Martin Luther King Jr.

The democrat party has decided that hatred of all things Trump is a winning strategy. Fact is, that there are no policies from the democrats that are positive for the citizens of the United States. Their platform, especially their obsession with promoting abortion and transgenderism for children, is void of anything positive. They have devolved into incessant ranting about Trump being an existential threat to democracy. It is truly sad that so much hatred is misdirected when democrats should be offering an alternative plan other than simply opposing anything Trump and Republicans propose.

“There will always be dissident voices heard in the land, expressing opposition without alternatives, finding fault but never favor, perceiving gloom on every side and seeking influence without responsibility.” John F. Kennedy.

The legacy media continues to trumpet opinion as if it is reporting the news objectively. When facts are omitted or ignored when they fail to bolster the left’s argument, journalists fail in their duty to report and inform the public. As the Fourth Estate, they are to hold the powerful accountable, for both parties. That is about as far from the truth as more than 90% of legacy news reporting is negative toward President Trump and Republicans. When will people realize that they are being spoon fed a narrative that is detrimental to civil society?

“The press is called the Fourth Estate. It is definitely a power, but to misuse that power is criminal.” Mahatma Gandhi.

Islamophobia is cited almost as often as “white” people are decried as racists. Wake up and smell the roses, Muslims intend to overrun the western world, eliminate our freedoms, and institute sharia law. Sharia law will prohibit homosexuality, freedom of expression, and end all other religions. Yet leftists fail to understand that they have no place in an Islamic society and would likely face a death sentence should Muslims come to power.

”Islam is more than a religion, it's much more than a religion, it's a way of life, it is a one-party political system that has a very elaborate legal system that can put you to death if you leave it.” Reza Aslan.

Secularism is encroaching upon the Judeo-Christian values that this nation was founded upon. This is the very reason behind the chaos that is overwhelming western society. Secularism lacks the moral compass that Christianity provides. Secularism denies our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, ordaining the worship and love of self over the worship and love of God. The one who had no sin that sacrificed Himself, took upon our sin, and rose again so that we may have eternal life is the solution to all that ails our society. All He wants is our heart. Follow Jesus and hatred melts. Follow Jesus and love triumphs. Follow Jesus and reject the ignorance that leads to chaos and death. Love one another as He loves us. This must be proclaimed loudly and proudly from the pulpit. God’s will is recorded in black and white, not in shades of gray. Pastors must call out what is evil. We are sheep in need of spiritual guidance. If the pulpit is silent or lacks the courage to call out what is wrong in God’s eyes, that pastor not only fails in his/her duty to properly serve the Lord, but risks losing their sheep to the evil of the world.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

And this is the verdict: The Light has come into the world, but men loved the darkness rather than the Light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come into the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever practices the truth comes into the Light, so that it may be seen clearly that what he has done has been accomplished in God.” Jesus Christ.

Follow Jesus, the light of the world!

Integration

 

Islam will not relent until all convert.

Funny how life can often be boiled down into Star Trek episode plot lines. Back to the Borg, the all-conquering aliens that will assimilate all cultures into their own. Islam is less a religion than it is a political ideology. Muslims have emigrated throughout the western world like locusts, rejecting each welcoming nation’s culture and refusing to integrate into society. Like the Borg, their end goal is to overcome all who refuse to accept their prophet Mohammed, acknowledge Allah as their god, and replace the current government with Islamic rule.

Sexual assaults in European nations that welcome Muslim immigrants have exploded, with Muslim rape gangs committing multiple offenses. Islam apparently relegates women to less than human status. The Quran (4:34) gives license for men to subjugate women and encourages husbands to use corporal punishment to ensure their obedience. So much for equality.

Islam rejects homosexuality outright and instructs its followers to stone or to kill those transgressors.  Quran 7:80-84 "...For ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.... And we rained down on them a shower (of brimstone)"

 "An account that is borrowed from the Biblical story of Sodom. Muslim scholars through the centuries have interpreted the "rain of stones" on the town as meaning that homosexuals should be stoned, since no other reason is given for the people's destruction." - The religionofpeace.com.

In 2025, followers of Islam, the alleged religion of peace, perpetrated 2010 attacks in 48 countries, killing 14004 and injuring 6653. So much for the religion of peace. Peace to Islam is simply uttering the phrase, “Peace be upon him.” But what of the moderate Muslims? They are few and far between and their failure to condemn violence in the name of Allah is deafening.

In the Middle Ages most Christians could not read. They depended upon Catholic priests to impart Biblical teachings to them. Their spiritual life was dependent upon Catholic church doctrine and traditions. Yet, mass was performed in Latin, a language few understood, until the 20th century. It is not surprising that many wayward traditions, such as indulgences, arose during this time. Many Muslim clerics preach Islamism, a more radical and abhorrent interpretation of the Quran and how Muslims are to interact in society. This is how radicals are created and encouraged.

Islam instructs its followers to reject everything that makes western society and the United States unique. Tolerance is not to be offered, particularly to the non-believer. Muslims are using the freedoms of western society to overthrow the very nations that welcome them. Islam is antithetical to a free and open society.

The Bible encourages hospitality. It also advises to use wisdom to avoid thieves or those who would cause you or your family harm. One must apply discernment when offering charity, serving those who truly are in need.

“Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.” - Galatians 6:10

As we open our nation to refugees, we must make certain to offer our freedoms to those who would accept them gratefully, agree to obey our laws, and integrate into society. Muslims that refuse should have our hospitality revoked and sent back to their country of origin. Muslims stand accused of defrauding US taxpayer of tens of $Billions. Yet their Quran (16:106, 3:54, 3:28) condones and even encourages dishonesty and deceitfulness when dealing with non-believers in order to gain their trust so that they can be defeated. The tenets of Islam do not comport with a civil society. The behaviors that it condones must be rejected. Islam is wedded to 7th Century conduct that is wholly unacceptable today. Islam cannot and will not co-exist with our values.

Allowing Islam to grow and spread within this nation will ultimately concede our way of life to an Islamic theocracy. We need to look no further than the European nations that have opened their borders and have been overwhelmed by the Muslim horde. If Muslim have their way, the United States will be no more. Muslim clerics preach hate and denigrate the very nation offering them hospitality, yet we fail to understand the threat to this nation.

“They will devour your harvest and food; they will consume your sons and daughters; they will eat up your flocks and herds; they will feed on your vines and fig trees. With the sword they will destroy the fortified cities in which you trust.” – Jeremiah 5:17

Let me Entertain you

 

Democrats engage in Kabuki theater.

Just as the entertainers that heap praise upon each other at their “award” shows, democrats in Congress play to their audience. Look at me as I challenge those evil Republicans and stand up to the tyranny of Trump! Aren’t I so very special, brave, and virtuous! Politicians always seem to perform for their constituency in front of the cameras, but democrats have brought it to an entirely new and disgusting level. There is absolutely nothing that would embarrass these erstwhile public servants.

Democrat representative LaMonica McIver, indicted for obstructing federal officers while storming an ICE facility, insinuates that the ICE director is going to hell at a Congressional hearing. Quite rich from the party that offers pre-born child sacrifices to Baal. If anyone has a reservation on the rocket sled to hell it would be those who revel in the murder of defenseless unborn babies.

Democrat representative and erstwhile Texas Senate candidate Jasmine Crockett has yet to discover a camera that triggers her to opine on all things she apparently knows nothing about. Her latest escapade in interview “excellence” involved falsely claiming President Trump is a pedophile and that “We’re gonna be on his ass.” Apparently indicating that democrats expect to win the House and begin impeachment after impeachment. Congressional members that have abused their positions for personal gain are in the crosshairs of the DOJ. As Crockett is one of our “representatives” that has exponentially increased her personal wealth during her term of office, she should not be throwing stones from her glass house.

Democrat representative, Communist China spy aficionado, and declared candidate for California Governor, Eric Swalwell, looks directly into the camera and promises to revoke the driver’s licenses of all ICE agents operating in California if elected. Raging leftists applaud as he takes a bow. Not one of the most intelligent members of Congress and prone to flatulence on camera, Swalwell is adept at exposing his lack of intelligence when attempting “gotcha” questions during hearings and while ignoring the fact that he really did sleep with a Chinese spy while he sat on the House Intelligence Committee.

Democrat Minnesota Attorney General testifies before the Senate and denies inciting violence in his state. "The president is deliberately weaponizing the federal government against the people of Minnesota to inflict pain and instill terror." Keith Ellison. “Ellison has emerged as the voice of resistance as Minnesota has emerged as its face.” “In Ellison’s view, Trump targeted Minnesota for three main reasons: The state voted for his opponent in all three of Trump’s election bids by close margins, state officials refused a request from the White House to provide personal information about registered voters, and they resisted scrutiny of the state’s social services programs.” Keith L. Alexander, Bloomberg Law article, January 29, 2026. During the hearing he denied any responsibility for escalating citizen confrontation of ICE agents in Minneapolis. As Senator Ron Johnson brought the receipts, Ellison sat there with a smirk on his face. Ellison’s rhetoric led to the deaths of two Minneapolis citizens, and he has the audacity to sit there and grin.

Democrat representative Ilhan Omar, most well-known for her antisemitic and anti-American rhetoric, has been implicated in the Somali fraud investigations in Minneapolis. She has also increased her net worth by over $30Million since she was elected to Congress in 2019.

Democrat representative Nancy Pelosi is now worth over $278Million, with her net worth increasing exponentially during her tenure in Congress. In 2024 alone, her portfolio increased over 54%, more than doubling the 25% stock market return, and trouncing hedge fund returns. She denies any insider trading advantage her positions on committees offer her.

Democrat representative Rashida Talib is currently under investigation for ties to numerous terrorist networks.

Democrat Senators Mark Kelly and Elisa Slotnick, democrat representatives Jason Crow, Maggie Goodlander, Chrissy Houlihan, and Chris Deluzio published a video exhorting members of the military to disobey “unlawful” orders. This video was intentionally vague to create conflict when receiving orders from the Commander in Chief, President Trump. Although none were indicted when the DOJ sought to prosecute them, the intent of their message is more than troubling. Their actions to subvert the military chain of command is reprehensible and even without a grand jury indictment, should be condemned. Placing partisan opposition before duty to the Constitution and their oath of office is abhorrent.

Democrats certainly do not hold exclusive authority on fraud, corruption and treachery, but they have certainly perfected their craft. Those who choose to vote for democrats do so at the risk of placing people in authority that have their own self interests ahead of those they seek to represent. Public servants are to be just that. They are to place themselves secondary to those they represent. They are not to rule; they are to represent the interests of their constituency. They are not to be considered better than the “unwashed masses,” they are to consider themselves bound to the service of others. Somehow, this has been lost to many of our representatives. There are those who understand their place and honor their oath to serve, but few of them belong to the democrat party.

The Constitution is the bedrock of all our freedoms; guard and cherish it; keep honor and order in your own house; and the republic will endure.” Gerald Ford

The deep partisan divide is driving this nation apart. When the minority party is more concerned with derailing a sitting president than enacting policies to improve the lives of Americans, something is horribly wrong. Democrats are willing to burn the nation down in order to stop Trump. They bring nothing positive, only divisiveness. Democrats must be defeated at the ballot box. They must become the small minority that they truly are. Democrats must never regain power. If they do, our nation will be fundamentally transformed.

We the People

 

Rioting is organized and targeted….. At you.

There is good reason that the 1st Amendment protects our most important and inalienable rights. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

“Peaceably to assemble and to petition the government.” Therein lies the rub. What we have been witnessing in democrat run cities across the nation is a well-organized, well-funded effort to create chaos. These riots are part of a deliberate, well thought out plan to destabilize our government, the first step in a fundamental transformation of this nation. Sound familiar? This slogan was part and parcel of Barack Obama’s first presidential campaign. Democrat party legislators throw their support behind the protesters, vilify ICE, or stand mute, any of which tacitly support the overthrow of a duly elected President and obstruction of his administration’s policies.

An alternate universe has seemingly replaced reality as the left controls the streets and the legacy media affirms their “just” cause. This entire scenario is orchestrated by “woke” far left mayors and governors in blue cities by their refusal to, not only not cooperate with ICE, but to declare their cities “sanctuaries” for illegal aliens. By not cooperating, their court and jail system refuses to notify ICE when criminal illegal aliens are released. In other words, criminal illegal aliens are released back onto the street to reoffend instead of ICE taking them into custody. This in turn, requires ICE to search the community for the criminal illegals, where they also arrest other illegal aliens as collateral damage. So rather than make their community safer, their policies create havoc and incite agitators, not peaceful protesters.

Notifying ICE when criminal illegal aliens are released makes, not only the community safer, it allows for ICE presence to be minimized and immigration officers to make the arrest in a safe and secure facility. These policies by democrat run cities are doing the exact opposite of what they are intended to do. Or are they? In Minneapolis, Mayor Jacob Frye, Governor Tim Walz, and Attorney General Keith Ellison have all been implicated in a pay for play scheme involving the Somali welfare fraud investigation, turning a blind eye to the fraud in return for campaign contributions. This entire chaotic scene in Minneapolis could very well be intentionally orchestrated to obscure the ongoing investigation into their role in the fraud. Follow the money and you will have your answer.

The ongoing funding and organization of the anti-ICE protests has links to believe it or not, China. The New York Post published an excellent article outlining the funding sources. here. It is somewhat understandable that the true believer anarchists and paid protesters are out in force. What is not however, are the useful idiot teachers, liberal white women, and the other hangers-on that contribute to the chaos. A University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee instructor has required students to engage in 20 hours of protest. Failure to do so will result with a failing grade for that class. Since that liberal arts class does not include “protest” as a requirement in the curriculum, I believe that any student in that class would be justified in challenging their “failing” grade. Public education, particularly in universities, are rife with leftist teachers and professors. They do not instruct students to think critically; they compel students to believe and accept leftist ideology. It was a sound strategy for the leftists of the 60’s and 70’s to infiltrate academia to indoctrinate the next generations.

“The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.” Friedrich Nietzsche

This nation is facing a critical moment in history. The left is engaged and growing its’ base. Christians and conservatives are sitting idly, shaking our heads at the lunacy of it all, while the disease metastasizes without proper treatment. That treatment is clear. We cannot ignore these civil disturbances that are spiraling out of control. We need to stand firm against this evil that will overcome our Republic if we do not. If we fail to wake up, it could be the death knell for this nation. This nation belongs to we the people, not to those who would destroy it. Whatever your position on immigration is, what we are witnessing on the streets is not acceptable in any society. Anarchists and America haters are teaming up to create a path to socialism. Stand aside and they will. One more article from Capital Research Center to make the point.

“What is the most sacred duty and the greatest source of our security in a Republic? An inviolable respect for the Constitution and Laws.” Alexander Hamilton.

Cause and Effect

 

Consequences of poor decisions.

Many of the Star Trek spinoffs contain discrepancies from the original series canon. Those inconsistencies are justified by crafting a multitude of futures based on the effects of decisions that create an entirely unique timeline, arising from those disparate decisions. Each individual choice creates a new chronological set of outcomes. There is no limit to the choices or futures in this sci-fi theory. In the real world, individual choices produce only one set of outcomes. Our choices have consequences. Poor choices end badly. Wise decisions are often rewarded. Confronting law enforcement while armed is a very poor decision. If you comply, you will not die.

The civil unrest in Minneapolis is driven by several factors. Anarchist groups organize with the express goal of destabilizing society. Self-proclaimed social justice warriors see themselves as pursuing a just cause. Misguided individuals that join the mob are nothing more than useful idiots. Minnesota elected officials, suspected to be complicit in the $Billions of Somali fraud, incite violence with their anti-ICE rhetoric, perhaps to deflect further scrutiny into their actions, or lack thereof. So many of these protestors are not protesting an unjust government but simply aiding and abetting corrupt politicians.

“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” Abraham Lincoln.

Foot soldiers like Renee Good and Alex Pretti are used by the anarchists as pawns, with the strategy to sacrifice them to further their goals and drive public opinion against the rule of law. Did they die for a just cause? Absolutely not! The United States has the right to enforce duly enacted immigration laws. State and local governments have a duty to respect and cooperate with Federal immigration officials. By refusing to cooperate and obstruct ICE, State and local officials violate 18 U.S.C. ss 1501, a misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in prison.

“Liberty may be endangered by the abuses of liberty as well as the abuses of power.” James Madison.

The right to peacefully protest is enshrined in the 1st Amendment. To obstruct or violently protest lawful enforcement actions is not. We are all faced with difficult decisions. Those who follow the law and endeavor to discern God’s will for us will prosper. Those who rely upon their own understanding and deny our Lord and Savior will not. The decision to rebel against worldly authority carries negative consequences to those who choose that path. If you comply, you will not die.

“Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which is from God. The authorities that exist have been appointed by God.  Consequently, whoever resists authority is opposing what God has set in place, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you want to be unafraid of the one in authority? Then do what is right, and you will have his approval.” Romans 3:1-3. 

Those virtue signaling liberals, that envision themselves as saving their fellow man, are protecting illegal aliens whose only contributions to society are committing criminal acts and increasing the national debt. We are witnessing the fall of the western world as elitist liberals elect leftist democrats to office so they can stand by and fiddle while Rome burns. Any reasonable person understands that the actions of the left, if allowed to fester, will overwhelm and destroy civil society. Leftists want to destroy this nation and if they ever gain power, they most certainly will. We need look no further than the out-of-control democrat run cities.

Evil is real and is evidenced by the once proud democrat party. It is imperative that good people reject democrats whole heartedly. Democrats that embrace leftist ideology must be voted out of office before they succeed in destroying this nation. Stand idly by, and you just may wake up to a nation you no longer recognize.

“People often say that, in a democracy, decisions are made by a majority of the people. Of course, that is not true. Decisions are made by a majority of those who make themselves heard and who vote - a very different thing.” Walter Judd.
