Too big not to Fail

 

Lack of oversight facilitates fraud.

Total federal spending in 2000 was $1.789 Trillion. Fast forward 25 years and federal spending has ballooned to $7.010 Trillion, almost quadrupling. The size and scope of the federal government has exceeded its ability to monitor and manage its vast tentacles as it attempts to impact every aspect of our lives. And some are just fine with that. There is no government spending program that democrats do not believe is absolutely essential, or that is too frivolous, in their efforts to spend our tax dollars. Case in point; USAID. Billions of tax dollars wasted on programs, with little or no oversight, that did nothing to actually fulfill the role in which it was created. Yet, democrats fought tooth and nail for each and every wasteful spending adventure in transgender education for Sudan and the like.

Oversight for this spending lies with Congress. 535 members cannot conduct the appropriate oversight with the scope of a government that surpasses understanding. The nearest star to the earth, Proxima Centauri, is 4.24 light years away, or approximately 25 trillion miles. Federal spending this year, if dollars were substituted with miles, would get us almost 1/3 of the way to Proxima Centauri. The Federal debt is over $37Trillion, or 12 trillion miles beyond our nearest star. Wrapping one’s head around the vastness of those numbers is almost beyond the capacity of human ability. Factor in the deep state’s desire to protect themselves from oversight and with programs that basically write blank checks, and you get a recipe for disaster with an avenue for rampant fraud.

Washington is the epitome of “pay for play.” You scratch my back by facilitating a contract with my firm and you get rewarded with a $6-7 figure job in the private sector when you retire. Many of our elected “representatives” have accrued wealth far beyond their salary accumulation, precisely because they know how to use their status for gain. This DC two-step is not solely a one-party problem, it is widespread throughout local, State, and Federal government, with elected officials and bureaucrats benefiting alike. There is no rational explanation for career politicians amassing such wealth, other than they are receiving illicit payments. And why would so many of our elected representatives resist passing legislation that prohibits “insider” stock trading by Congress?

For Marxism to take root and spread, capitalism must be dismantled. One strategy is to spend the government into oblivion. In 1966, leftist sociologists Richard Cloward and Francis Fox-Piven developed a plan to generate societal chaos by overwhelming the welfare system. This Cloward-Piven Strategy opens the door to the creation of a federal program of income redistribution. It then becomes necessary to subsidize even more of the poor once the welfare system collapses. The term “stimulus” is simply a pretense for income redistribution. The government takes from producers and gives to nonproducers, increasing dependency on federal government support. A representative government is replaced with an elite ruling class, a tyrannical autocracy that makes the rules and has the sole power to enforce them. Sound familiar? It is part and parcel of the Democrat Socialists of America (DSA) policy platform.

This is the AOC/Bernie Sanders wing of the democrat party, one that “mainstream” democrats have little issue with as they fail to distance themselves from its radical policies. Any port in the storm when your primary goal is to seek, gain and maintain power and authority. If it increases odds of a democrat takeover, to them, that is a path well taken, no matter the consequences to this nation. The current democrat party is wholly unrecognizable from the party of JFK. Today’s Republican party is more representative of the “blue dog democrats” that placed country over party, than today’s democrats that will abandon their responsibility to constituents just to undermine President Trump.

Placing some of our representatives in charge of managing oversight for $Trillions in Federal spending, is like making a fox responsible for guarding the henhouse. Tax dollars go out the door to pet programs and money returns to the democrat national committee (DNC) via non-profits and NGO’s that were tasked to manage and distribute the funds to the “worthy” causes. Smurfs were utilized by the democrat fundraising site Act Blue to launder $Millions to democrat causes and candidates. Investigations continue that may lead to the discovery of tax dollars earmarked for USAID programs and money sent to Ukraine to aid in their war effort against Russia, that was redirected to the DNC in millions of donations small enough to evade detection by the Federal Election Commission.

This fraud is happening in plain sight, discovered by independent journalists, like Nick Shirley and James OKeefe, that are not in the pocket of the democrat party as is most of the legacy media. But there is a solution available to every US citizen. The opportunity to win this fight against dishonest politicians occurs every other year. We the people hold the key to hold the wicked accountable. Your informed vote can put good people into office, just as it can remove those who betray the public trust. Democrats, as constituted, have betrayed their duty to represent the public and must be voted out of office. We the people have the duty to elect those who understand their obligation as public servants. We also have the duty to remove those who do not. Make your vote count this November.

 

 

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?

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.
