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.

Rule of Law

 

 

 

Leftist judges pervert justice.

Partisanship or political bias cannot affect any decisions from the judicial branch of government. The Constitution and enacted laws that are deemed constitutional are the only considerations when rendering an opinion. There are three co-equal branches of government, legislative, executive, and judicial. Each is granted limited authority with oversight among them. Since the dawn of Trump, co-equal no longer pertains. Democrats have filed lawsuit after lawsuit, challenging executive actions by President Trump. District court judges are granting themselves broad powers, taking jurisdiction where they have none, and injecting themselves into the political sphere. We first saw this when Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg indicted and convicted Trump on 34 separate felonies related to federal campaign finance laws, in which his office did not have jurisdiction. Perversion of the law continues, unabated.

Without mutual respect and “staying in your lane,” the legislative, executive, and judicial branches cannot co-exist in a manner that the framers intended and will ultimately create a dysfunctional government. The Constitution must be adhered to. Laws must be respected and upheld. Each branch must allow the other to perform their constitutionally authorized duties, without obstruction from the other. This Constitutional Republic will fall if usurpation of authority becomes the norm. Joe Biden usurped the legislative branch’s authority when he forgave $Billions of student loans, even while acknowledging he had no authority to do so. He continued granting loan forgiveness even after the Supreme Court ruled his actions unconstitutional. This cannot become a precedent lest our nation be plunged into an executive branch anarchy, establishing an unrestrained and authoritarian Presidential office.

Radical left-wing judges continue to “order” presidential actions to cease and desist the enforcement of lawful executive orders. This radicalization of judicial actions is not limited to federal judges. In Wisconsin, a circuit judge in a liberal county, overturned Act 10, a law upheld by the Wisconsin Supreme Court a decade ago. Not only did this judge lack jurisdiction, the “new” liberal majority of the Wisconsin Supreme Court accepted the case and will re-rule on the constitutionality of the law. On April 1st Wisconsin will elect a new Supreme Court Justice and either the liberals will maintain their 4-3 majority or conservatives will regain the majority after the ballots are tabulated. Even if the conservative prevails, the liberal majority will move to strike down Act 10, which turned a $3.5 Billion deficit into a $4 Billion surplus, before a new conservative justice is seated. Partisanship run amok!

The last Wisconsin Supreme Court race saw tens of millions of democrat dollars poured into the coffers of the democrat’s chosen candidate, uber-lefty Janet Protasiewicz. She prevailed in the election, even after declaring Act 10 unconstitutional, Wisconsin’s district maps unfair, criticized voter ID, and stated that she would overturn Wisconsin’s abortion law. Yet, she is now seated on the state’s highest court! If the democrat’s chosen candidate, Susan Crawford, an uber-lefty judge from Dane County, is elected as Supreme Court Justice, insanity from the bench will overcome Wisconsin. Brad Schimel, the conservative in the race, will restore some semblance of rationality to the court. Although Crawford’s ads accuse Schimel of failing to address the backlog of sexual assault kits, Schimel, as Wisconsin Attorney General, instituted a policy that identified and completed the vast majority of all untested rape kits he inherited after he was elected. Democrat carpetbagger AG Josh Kaul ignores his duties to defend Wisconsinites while he chases down lawsuits, many of no benefit to Wisconsin, some where he lacks jurisdiction or standing, with the intent to derail President Trump’s agenda.

Partisanship from the bench, overwhelmingly initiated by radical leftists appointed by democrats, needs to end yesterday. Our nation cannot withstand the judicial assault on our Constitution. We are spiraling down a rabbit hole that leads to the destruction of the rule of law, the very thing that holds the fabric of society together.

You must not pervert justice; you must not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the rich; you are to judge your neighbor fairly. Leviticus 19:15

Voice of Reason

 

On the road back to sanity.

The first month of the second Trump Presidency has been a whirlwind return to common sense and the restoration of traditional values. For four long years the Biden administration intentionally incorporated woke insanity into the fabric of society. Now it is finally being unraveled. Love him or hate him, Donald Trump is leading the charge to re-normalize accepted “pronouns” instead of overemphasizing they/them. He is delivering on his promises, with a mandate from the majority that voiced their displeasure with the Biden/Harris administration on November 6th. Our forebears entered into a covenant with God to instill Judeo/Christian values into this newly formed nation. Rejecting the evil that is paramount to the woke culture and reinstituting that which God approves, is long overdue.

The rollback of woke ideology is occurring at break-neck speed, and the people approve. Unfortunately, the woke leftists that apparently dominate the democrat party are doubling down on the absurdity of it all. Maine Governor Janet Mills preens to her woke audience, defies President Trump at a White House meeting of Governors, while threatening to see the President in court over her stated disregard of his executive order upholding Title IX and protecting women’s rights. Polls indicate that this is an 80/20 issue with a vast majority of people agreeing that biological boys should not compete against girls and that biological boys should be barred from using women’s locker rooms and bathrooms. Yet, the democrats persist in supporting the insanity that is the transgender agenda.

President Clinton and Obama, both democrats, tried to rein in the outlandish spending of our federal government by streamlining the bureaucracy. Clinton eliminated over 300,000 Federal workers and balanced the budget. Obama eliminated over 39,000. There was no hair on fire, assertions of threats to democracy, claims of benefits being denied, or accusations of violations of the rights of Federal workers. There really is no bias in the media, is there? By their actions, democrats support government waste, fraud, and abuse while they decry the Trump administration’s attempt to create a more efficient government that uses your tax dollars appropriately. Not what I would call a winning issue if they ever hope to regain power.

It has become all too apparent that democrats prefer to defend federal employees that deliberately undermine the current administration, and by doing so, oppose the will of the electorate they are charged to serve. Fraud, waste, and abuse of taxpayer’s money is a personal affront to all citizens of this great nation. Those enriching themselves, their families, and friends should be prosecuted to the greatest extent of the law. The love of money is the root of all evil and those that fall prey to that proclivity will be identified, investigated, indicted, thrown out of office, and learn what life behind bars is all about.

Interest payments on our national debt exceed the annual budget of our national defense. Trillions of dollars are spent without justification or records to where the monies went. Taxes continue to pay for a bloated bureaucracy that continues to grow and siphon the nation’s money that would be spent to positively grow the economy, create wealth, and jobs. This must end. Government must only provide the necessities, efficiently and cost effectively. That is not the case as our government has run amok, ruling rather than serving the people. Those who steal from the people are simply criminals, enriching themselves at other’s expense.

Ronald Reagan famously said, “In this present situation, government is not the solution; government is the problem.” In the forty years since he said this, government is not only the problem, but it also hinders the very structure of this nation. It has metastasized like a cancer leaving surgery as the only option. Government must be cut down to size and begin to function as the founders intended. If the democrats refuse to conform and serve the people, they will be left behind as an insignificant minority that they truly have become. Get on the train or it will pass you by. The people are watching and waiting for a return to sanity from the “loyal opposition.” Unfortunately, I only see democrats doubling down on insane leftist ideology, making them prime candidates for the next species facing extinction, and rightfully so!

Civic Duty

 

With citizenship, comes responsibility.

For civil society to prosper, an informed and engaged citizenry is necessary. “Whenever the people are well-informed, they can be trusted with their own government.” Thomas Jefferson. When one refuses or neglects that obligation, societal fabric begins to erode. An uninformed electorate concedes their inalienable rights to representatives that fail to protect the citizen’s interests. Without proper oversight, elected legislators are easily persuaded to place other’s interests and their own at the forefront of their decision making. Freedom comes at a cost. Those who fail to engage or vote based upon faulty reasoning will get what they deserve. Unfortunately, far too many abandon their civic responsibility, and we suffer as a nation because of it.

President John F. Kennedy famously said, “Do not ask what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” Is it too little to ask that the citizens of this nation be better informed? Is it too much to ask that citizens see and understand what is occurring in plain sight? Is it too much to ask that citizens question the narrative that seems all too contrived? With vast amounts of information available at their fingertips, too many take the easy way out and depend upon social media “influencers” on Tik Tok, Instagram, X or the like. When you cast a vote or choose not to, you are ceding constitutional power to an elected official that may have no business in that position of authority. (see AOC, Rashida Talib, Ilhan Omar, etc.)

For those of you celebrating the lawfare used by the democrat party to persecute their political opponents, your lack of understanding the long-range consequences of these actions is alarming. For those of you that allow a venomous hatred by the leftist media to influence your decision making and allow that hate to fester and grow into your being, I truly am disappointed in your lack of judgement. For those of you placing your trust in a government that lies, cheats, and steals your resources to enact policies that a vast majority rejects, your failure to comprehend that you are being betrayed is appalling. “It is the first responsibility of every citizen to question authority.” Benjamin Franklin

Blindly following a party of failed policies, that foments hatred toward their political opponents and disdains those they are charged to represent, is beyond idiocy. Supporting democrats in their unfettered attack on the very tenets of this Constitutional Republic, encouraging their goal of eliminating your ability to choose your elected representatives, and abolishing your very civil rights is beyond the pale. We are truly on the pathway to an idiocrasy, where an uninformed populace is ruled by an elite that fashions themselves as the intelligencia that controls all aspects of life. “You’ll own nothing and be happy.” Summarized from a essay by Ida Auken at the 2016 WEF forum.

The “conviction” of former President Donald Trump is a travesty to our nation and the rule of law. Leftists, supported by democrats, are making a mockery of the law in democrat run cities by willfully refusing to enforce criminal law, often releasing criminals, without bail, back into the community to reoffend, again and again. Attorney General Merrick Garland approves the use of deadly force and the pre-dawn raid of Trump’s Mar a Lago with law enforcement brandishing long guns and non-uniforms. He has the temerity to tell Congress that the same policy was used in the search of President Biden’s residence, but there was no raid, no long guns and was done during daylight hours. Just like Sesame Street, some of these things just don’t belong with the others.

As long as democrats retain their offices and the authority it gives them, lawlessness will continue to run amok. The only solution is to vote democrats out of office so that they will learn from their errors and moderate their policies. As democrats vote by party fealty, not by what is best for their constituency, making them a voting block that is a clear minority will prevent them from maintaining their political power, creating an avenue to return to the values that have made this nation great. It is time to wake up and throw these leftists out of office. Any politician with a (D) next to their name should never again receive any votes until they abandon their headlong rush into leftism. It is time to return this country back to a government by, for and of the people. “Nations do not die from invasion; they die from internal rottenness.” Abraham Lincoln

Insanity

 

By any means necessary.

Like the radical Islamists, leftists are in it for the long haul. Both advocate and are determined to destroy America as founded, replacing it with their vision of Utopia. Leftists have, in a few short decades, managed to infiltrate positions in society that wield considerable power. Leftists now thrive in academia, journalism, government bureaucracy, the judicial system, and elected offices. The democrat party has fully embraced the ideals and doctrine of the radical left, as they believe that leftist tactics will allow them to gain and maintain power. Party to this crime that is destroying the very fabric of this nation, is the “Deep State,” that also includes Republicans on the take. Policy is driven by entrenched bureaucrats and funded by unscrupulous lobbyists that use money and the promise of future lucrative positions to influence legislators. (see Mike Gallagher R-WI) And far too many of your elected “representatives” are in politics to enrich themselves and their families. Those who truly are public servants, working dutifully for their constituents, are ostracized by their colleagues and the media. (Last I checked, those in government are supposed to be working for “We the people,” but I digress.)

There is good reason that Donald Trump is Public (Deep State) enemy #1. The charades transpiring in the courts of democrat run cities, by democrat District Attorneys, urged on by democrat operatives, promoted by democrat elected officials and trumpeted by democrat aligned media is almost comical, but for the clear and present danger that it poses to this Constitutional Republic. Yet, this vitriolic vigor is mimicked by those too ignorant to see through the thinly veiled call to “save our democracy” from the “Bad Orange Man.” Me thinks thou dost protest too much! The distain for the common man displayed by our “public servants” would lead one to believe that the populace would be infuriated. Unfortunately, half of the nation is asleep at the wheel, tacitly ignoring the danger occurring in plain sight, while the other half blindly follows the urgings of the leftist media, irrationally supporting those who would abolish their liberties, like so many lemmings jumping off a cliff.

An outsider with no ties to the “Deep State” Trump is reviled by those he seeks to expose. Joe Biden has been a politician for more than 50 years, making $Millions during his tenure. Notwithstanding the alleged “pay for play” scheme headed by his son Hunter and brother James, the Great Unifier has lined his and his family’s pockets with ill-begotten wealth. Yet, democrats will blindly follow this man as he lies, cheats, and steals your tax dollars and uses his position to enrich himself. Barnum was right. A fool is born every minute. The laughable drone of democrats and their enabling media should be enough to make most people question the goings on in this once great nation, but still half of the nation drinks this Kool-Aid willingly. How can anyone with half a brain support a man that has trashed the economy, stood by idly as wars erupt, appeases and supports our enemies, and vilifies half of America, while they harbor an undue hatred of a man that presided over an economy that overwhelmingly benefited everyone, started no new wars, and stood up for America, at home and abroad. What the hell is going on?

If Trump is re-elected, he should not eliminate the 80,000 new IRS agents. He should assign them to audit every elected official, regardless of party, and the leadership of each Federal department. All those on the take should be indicted and upon conviction receive the harshest sentence allowed by law. He should absolutely target those who unlawfully targeted him and after conviction, push for their maximum sentencing. Our government is rotting from the inside and it needs to be returned to “We the people.” The only way for that to happen in to take down the “Deep State,” replace the rot with patriotic public servants, and set the example as he did with his previous administration.

Continue to vote “D” if you are fine with the protests and indoctrination at our college campuses and public schools. Continue to vote “D” if you agree that children should be allowed to choose their gender and undergo life altering procedures against their parent’s will. Continue to vote “D” if you believe that unborn children can be killed up to the time of birth. Continue to vote “D” if you believe that skin color should be the determining factor to allow discrimination. Continue to vote “D” if you agree that your government should rule and not represent you. Continue to vote “D” if you want rampant spending to continue, that unending wars are the new normal, and agree that this nation is inherently evil and irredeemable. Continue to vote “D” if you want open borders, with unvetted disease carriers, criminals, and ungrateful miscreants overrunning your neighborhood.

If you are tired of playing second fiddle to a bunch of entitled elites, it is time to reconsider your choice when you enter that voting booth. If you want to end this nightmare brought to you by failed democrat policies, if you hanker for a return to law and order, if you believe that we should protect the most vulnerable, not kill them with impunity, and would love to restore responsibility in government, it is time to vote for candidates that uphold traditional values. It is time to throw out those who have misused the trust loaned to them as representatives for the people. It is time for normalcy to rule once again. Democrats are the true danger to our nation. It is time to make them the minority that they are. It is time for God to be acknowledged as our Creator and Christ as Savior. It is time that “We the people” rise up, take back this nation and make it great again!

The Little People

 

You do not matter to the elite!

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Sir Isaac Newton. Most that are in tune with and report that global events are following a pre-determined path, are decried as “conspiracy theorists” or worse. Yet, train derailments have become much too commonplace in the US. Food processing plants go up in flames. Essential infrastructure that is responsible for filling the shelves at supermarkets are spinning their wheels, unable to provide the essentials to the nation. Ocean going shipping grinds to a halt as ships remain at sea, unable to be unloaded in ports. Coincidental? I think not.

“We don’t need the vast majority of the population. Human beings should be replaced by machines whenever possible. People are just no longer useful to the global elite and their agenda.” Yuval Noah Harari. Self-appointed ruling elites fly their private jets to Davos, Switzerland to attend the World Economic Forum, then virtue-signal with their “carbon off-set” purchases that assuage their guilt for burning tons of fossil fuels. Yet, those elites consider most of the population as expendable, uneducated rubes that waste the world’s resources. They “believe” that they are righteously fighting “man-made” climate change. Sustainability is being used to de-populate the planet. Reduce food sources, reduce the yields of our farms, reduce the population. Outgoing climate czar John Kerry called on climate activists to be more militant, and they have obeyed. They are using young people to debase our nation to ensure that the little people will not partake in their new world order. This is their religion and you and I are in their way of their vision of Utopia.

“Science can flourish only in an atmosphere of free speech.” Albert Einstein Free speech has been reconceived as what is acceptable to the ruling party. Particularly in the scientific field, there is to be no more dissent on the chosen narrative. Any deviation from “settled” science is not just discouraged, but subject to penalties. Look no further than the COVID narrative. Fail to comply with the military mandate to be injected with an experimental drug, face dishonorable discharge. Airline pilots, medical personnel, first responders, and so many others that were denied a religious exemption that lost their livelihoods. Vaccine skeptics were attacked, ridiculed, and accused of murdering grandma. Government misinformation and disinformation determined predominantly by unelected bureaucrats, big tech, and enforced by the FBI that manipulated social media companies to violate the 1st Amendment rights of those who failed to tow the government’s narrative.

A nation that is afraid to let its’ people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its’ people.” John F. Kennedy. The Biden administration admonishes its’ political opponents, effectively villainizing half of the nation that they have pledged to serve. As the left has continually and falsely proclaimed of the danger to democracy that conservatives present, policies that open our sovereign borders, abdicate our role as leaders in the world, spend us into oblivion, and relinquish our nation’s ability to be energy independent, is the real threat to our Constitutional Republic. A government that supports the murder of unborn children, mandates diversity, equity, and inclusion that accelerates a headlong rush to indoctrinate our children with a perverted interpretation of human sexuality, and advocates against law enforcement, while weaponizing the Department of Justice against its’ political opponents, is no government at all.

“True revolutionaries do not flaunt their radicalism, they cut their hair, put on suits, and infiltrate the system from within.” Saul Alinsky. Bill Ayers and Bernadette Dohrn, members of the Weather Underground in the 1960’s are now spewing their hatred of our nation in academia. Barack Obama, a former community organizer in Chicago, kicked off his foray into politics in Ayers and Dohrn’s living room. Former San Francisco District Attorney, Chesa Boudin, was raised by Ayers and Dohrn after his radical parents were convicted of armed robbery and murder during a Weather Underground attempted heist of an armored car. George Soros, a currency manipulator who has destabilized countries worldwide, uses his wealth to support and elect leftist soft-on-crime DA’s in liberal cities in an effort to create chaos in those communities. He has been very successful in his endeavor. And, the democrat party embraces this turmoil. Who is the real danger to democracy?

If democrats retain the White House and the Senate, our headlong rush toward socialism will continue unabated. We will find ourselves under the globalist’s thumb and our freedoms will continue to erode. Without pushback, the Deep State will inevitably control every aspect of our lives. We the people will lose our representative government and be lorded over by those who could care less about you. It may seem to be hyperbole, but 2024 could very well be the end of our nation as it was founded.

God was very intentional when He created you. Your talents, your abilities, and your intellect are the tools that enable us to ascertain the difference between right and wrong. The Bible contains the truths necessary to ascertain His will. We are His hands and feet here on earth. We can make a difference in the world, by planting those seeds that the Holy Spirit can nurture and grow. Or, we can stand by idly an let the evil one win. It is your decision. Simply said, the democrat party is advocating for the fall of this nation with policies that are inherently evil. The democrat party, as comprised today, must be voted out of power, and be marginalized. Allowing them to maintain power will lead to the end of this once great nation. Will you stand idly by while evil overtakes our society or will you decide to do something about it by standing strong for your faith?

“When evil men plot, good men must plan. When evil men burn and bomb, good men must build and bind. When evil men shout ugly words of hatred, good men must commit themselves to the glories of love.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Wait for it….

.

It’s God’s timing, not yours

A shout out to my Pastor, Jason Esposito for the inspiration for this post.

Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6 This is the charge to parents as they raise their children and help them formulate their faith, values, and morals. As leftist ideology replaces traditional learning in public education, our nation is running the risk of creating a generation of indoctrinated youth. Diversity, inclusion, and equity (DEI) curricula place more emphasis on social engineering than mathematics, science and reading. The precipitous decline of United States standardized testing is clear evidence that it has adversely affected the competency of our students. If instilled early enough, the tenets of Critical Race Theory, (CRT) transgenderism, social and climate justice will be ingrained into our youth’s belief systems. Children are particularly vulnerable to suggestion and are innate learners, trusting implicitly those charged to teach and train them. Just as computers utilize only information that is inputted, children are an open book waiting for the proper instruction to formulate how they will approach their futures.

And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These words I am commanding you today are to be upon your hearts.  And you shall teach them diligently to your children and speak of them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up. Tie them as reminders on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Deuteronomy 6:5-8 This is critical guidance for parents. Parents have a duty to make certain that their children follow the narrow path and are not led astray. If parents allow the State to usurp their authority and instill values contrary to their own, they have failed in their responsibility to, not only their children but to God.

The intrusion of government into the affairs of the populace has been deliberately amplified for decades. When Barack Obama ascended to the Presidency, it was intensified ten-fold. His strategy of promoting race and class division in our society is textbook leftist ideology. While we had a brief respite from the headlong rush to redefine our nation when Donald Trump was elected, it has gone into hyperdrive after the election of Joe Biden. One of Biden’s first executive orders was to integrate DEI into all government agencies and have it trickle down to businesses and education. It has been extraordinarily effective. As we go about our busy lives, blissfully unaware of this destructive mandate, we allow our children to be manipulated by this malicious scheme. DEI promotes gender, race, and inclusion, discounting merit and ability, and advancing individuals less qualified for those positions. This will eventually lead to less qualified doctors, military, airline pilots, plumbers, electricians, and on and on, diminishing society.  

How long, Lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry out to you, “Violence!” but you do not save? Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do you tolerate wrongdoing? Destruction and violence are before me; there is strife, and conflict abounds. Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails. The wicked hem in the righteous, so that justice is perverted. Habakkuk 1:2-4 Have you ever just cried out to God? Know this, He hears all our laments. He hears our pleas for justice. He hears our cries of pain and despair. Prayer takes many forms and God listens and answers them all. Our time and expectations are not God’s though. Even in the Old Testament times, God answered His people in His own time. Prayer, when sincere and God-centered, will be answered. Some prayers are answered before we even realize that we have the need or before we ask.

Our time, our talents, and our resources are given to us to use to give God the glory. We are often given the tools to right those wrongs or heal those infirmities before we even recognize the deficiency in our lives. For healing, God provides the medical community. For the fight against evil, God provides our church community and His Word. The spiritual armor that God provides gives us the wherewithal to stand up to the evil that seems to have overtaken this world. Often, we can become the answer to prayer if we relinquish control and allow Him to rule our lives.

In our faith community, we have the spiritual resources to help guide our lives. As parents, we can surrender to God and gain the strength to stand up to the forces that seek to destroy faith and family. With God’s help, we can take back our nation and be instrumental in returning this nation back to Him. With faith in God, anything can be accomplished. Throughout time, God has used His people as instruments to accomplish His will. Divine intervention can be God tapping you on the shoulder to act on His behalf. It is not too late if we choose to act now. Stand strong in the Lord and refuse to acquiesce to the evil that has become so pervasive in our world. Evil may seem to have won today’s battle, but we know who ultimately wins this war.

Rules of Engagement

Man on the street interviews highlight just how out of touch many in our nation have become. Questions that once were common knowledge are often fumbled by our next generation of leaders. But they can recite verbatim from social media influencer’s videos. Decisions driven by some “Tic Tok’ video publisher’s unhinged rantings without possessing the ability to properly filter out the noise, is a recipe for disaster. This is what you get when teaching life skills become secondary to preaching CRT and striving for equity of outcome. In just a few short years, woke education policies have created a generation that has no clue.

Political ideology drives individuals to vilify those in which they disagree. Far too many on all sides of the political spectrum fall prey to this insidious behavior, especially on social media. Civil dialogue has become a lost art. In a head long rush to embrace “wokeness,” society has elevated selfishness to the preeminent position in society. We are cautioned to live in this world without becoming overcome by it but the world is clearly winning. Compassion has been twisted into a means of assuaging those who willfully choose to reject common decency and morality.  Tolerance is manipulated to reject common sense and allow abhorrent behavior to be normalized. Acceptance has been corrupted to foster disregard of accepted societal norms. Equity of outcome replaces equality of opportunity and the whole of society suffers in this misguided attempt to elevate those perceived to be marginalized by society.

One should always question “new things” and transformational changes within society. Failure to do so will facilitate the default to our innate human selfishness. Awareness of our ill-advised proclivities will help to strive toward selflessness and service to our neighbors. In order to help make this world a better place, we often must deny our needs in order to serve others. This world was never intended to revolve around any single human being in order to fulfill their wants and desires. Affirmation of those trapped within their selfishness only rewards ill-advised conduct. There is a reason that laws and rules exist. Without them, humanity regresses into human animals, only concerned with their own needs and desires. When identity or ideology supersedes empathy and concern for fellow human beings, we become ego-driven, self-centered malevolent beings that are antithetical to the ideal human condition.

Those that believe that it is paramount to properly love their neighbor by affirming behavior that is contrary to science and accepted societal norms, harms not only society but harms the mental health and well-being of the subject of that misguided love. When principles of conduct become vague and undefined, such as acquiescing to the theory that whatever is your reality is truth, the more unorthodox the standard of conduct becomes. Our society is in a free fall away from reality. Leftists seek to destroy the fabric of this nation and remake it into a socialist, authoritarian state and many are fooled into supporting this disturbing conspiracy.

The fears of a nation were manipulated and used to control this nation as it faced the uncertainty of a novel coronavirus pandemic that was far less lethal than our government and public health officials asserted. Fear is used to stoke hatred and to destroy those who would challenge this dangerous “woke” ideology that has replaced common sense. Fear enables individuals to do whatever it takes to protect their position and power. But fear is a liar. Reason and truth must be restored to overcome fear, and that truth is that we are all brothers and sisters with God as our Father. Fear divides us against one another. The common enemy is clear for those who choose to see. Government has been weaponized against “we the people,” and too many cheer it on.

Biden promised a return to normalcy and to unite the nation. His rhetoric has further divided this nation. His policies are destroying our economy, ended our energy independence, acquiesced to Russia's aggression, relinquished our role in the world to China and is destroying the dollar as the primary currency of trade. It is time to deny ourselves and identities as Democrat or Republican. It is time that we elect those who choose to serve us, rather than rule us. It is time to roll back the insanity that has overcome our nation. We are one nation under God and its high time we act that way.

Ship of Fools

Reason has left the building 

You can fool some of the people some of the time but you can fool many of the people far too often. Not exactly what P.T. Barnum said but ever so pertinent today. Thomas Jefferson said, “A democratic society depends upon an informed and educated citizenry.” Today many Americans are less informed than their counterparts of only a decade ago. It is staggering that so few people are aware of what once was common knowledge in an age where information is so readily available. Who is your Senator? Representative? Local officials? But ask about Tic Toc influencers or pop culture and they are all on it.

This nation is coerced by politicians that use hateful rhetoric, demonizing their political opponents to further their own selfish ambitions. The leftist media promotes contempt of accepted societal norms and refuses to report news that harms their chosen agenda. People preen their virtuosity as they advocate for the absurd, and these useful idiots continue to vote for politicians that promote an agenda that advocates against their own self-interests.

Woke teachers sexualize our children and cheer on drag queen story time, and far too many parents acquiesce to this insanity. Children, unable to understand the concept of gender fluidity and sexuality are encouraged to explore transgenderism and homosexuality, often without the knowledge or consent of their parents. States, like California, codify these insane ideologies into law. Tolerance and acceptance replace reason and common sense.

The leader of the free world is suffering from dementia and is barely self-aware, but at least the Bad Orange man is gone. Dr. Oz is declared a poor candidate, but democrats in Pennsylvania elect a Senator so cognitively challenged, that he can barely speak and a dead man, simply because there is a “D” after their names on the ballot. We are electing incompetent, anti-American, and corrupt leftists throughout our government and that government is appointing leftist and woke judges and bureaucrats. Biden was correct; Our Democracy is at risk, not by electing Republicans, but by acquiescing to this lunacy that is the left.

A standing army is necessary to maintain the sovereignty of the nations’ borders, to repel all enemies from said borders, and to protect the citizens of the United States from invasion. The military is to be trained to achieve these ends. This administration’s military leaders are more concerned with the woke politics of Critical Race Theory, affirming one’s chosen gender, mandating a “vaccine” that is neither safe, nor effective, and preferred pronouns. They search for a conspiracy of white supremacy in their ranks without any justification or evidence that it exists. Recruitment is falling short of the necessary numbers to properly populate our military, primarily because of these insane policies. Our military has become a laughingstock to our geopolitical enemies. Enemies that do not respect our military are more likely to become aggressive to us and around the world. That is the primary reason that Russia invaded Ukraine.

Best qualified for the job? Better be able to check the correct gender, race or preferred pronoun box or you will be passed over. Why are we standing by, doing nothing? What was once a nation of laws, built upon Judeo-Christian values is eroding away right before our eyes, with many Americans cheering it on. Love your neighbor as yourself has morphed into a burning hatred of opponents to leftist ideology, Christianity, and all things conservative. The tenets of Christianity, that charges all believers to love and support your fellow man, is derided by the left as hateful, homophobic, and exclusivity, when it is openly inclusive and welcoming to everyone. For certain, not all practicing Christians are good examples in living the way that Christ calls us to live, but the teachings of Christ are all about love, acceptance, and servitude to the world. Jesus said, “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” “For if you forgive others who have sinned against you, your Father in heaven will also forgive you.” “Do not judge others and you will not be judged.”  “Beware of false prophets…you can identify them through their actions.” The false prophets in the media have brainwashed the masses so thoroughly that they have been overcome by evil. How else would one be offended by Jesus’ words?

An accounting of the direction that our country is heading is in order. We have become a ship without a rudder and no one cares. We must confront the evil that is blossoming in our nation or we will be overcome by it. Common sense Judeo-Christian values produced the greatest nation on earth to date. If we fail to re-embrace those values, stand by and do nothing, we may as well give the keys to our enemies. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. Without Him, we are doomed to fail. We are a Christian nation. It’s time that our actions embrace His truth. It’s time that we look to that cross. It’s time that our nation rejects the evil that abounds and support good, Christian leaders that will fight to return this land to its’ rightful place as One Nation Under God.

Truth, or Dare?

 

Time to get real

What once was a kid’s game has evolved into something it was never intended to be. No longer is this a game played among giggling young people, it has become a twisted reality as the Biden administration continues to blur the boundaries of governing and rank partisanship. This great nation, built upon the rule of law and the trustworthiness of a fair and impartial government, is failing its’ citizenry by abandoning the independence necessary to maintain a Constitutional Republic. Democrats that seized the majority in the House, Senate and the Presidency have determined that half of the country is a threat to their idea of democracy. With that determination, the full power and authority of federal law enforcement has been unleashed against those in which they disagree. What once was a government of, by and for the people, has turned the rule of law upside down, using it as a cudgel to strike at their political opponents. A willing and compliant media parrots Democrat talking points in unison, failing to uphold its’ responsibility to hold the powerful accountable, unless the powerful just happen to be Republican.

Our divider in chief, President Joseph R. Biden rails against half of the US population and declares them semi-fascists. Those that respect the law, support accepted societal norms, challenge the insane “wokeism” that is infiltrating education, the military and society in general stand accused by our President and Democrat leaders as malevolent and immoral, while they offer tacit support for violent Marxists like Antifa and Black Lives Matter. Riots, looting and burning throughout the summer of 2020 were viewed as mostly peaceful, seldom prosecuted and our current Vice-President Kamala Harris championed funding to bail out jailed rioters. While many of the January 6th protesters should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, many have been languishing in prison for over a year, with their due process rights violated. No matter the crime, everyone must be afforded the Constitutional right to a speedy trial, access to appropriate legal representation and incarceration that is reasonable and humane.

Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, was reckless with real-time, classified and top-secret information, kept on an unsecure, non-government server. Congressional subpoenaed documents were deleted and destroyed. She was never prosecuted nor served with a search warrant. The Director of the FBI, James Comey, closed the investigation when he declared that no reasonable prosecutor would issue charges. Presidential records, kept under lock and key, guarded by Secret Service agents, necessitated the execution of an unprecedented search warrant at the home of former President Trump to retrieve documents held there since January 2021.

Hunter Biden left his lap-top computer at a Delaware computer repair shop. It contained evidence of potential criminal activity by the Biden family. The FBI seized the lap-top in 2019, but did no further investigation. The FBI not only ignored evidence; it sent agents to warn social media companies of a potential dump of Russian mis-information. When the New York Post obtained a copy of the hard-drive and reported on the troubling information, they were de-platformed from social media. Mainstream media refuted the validity of the report and 51 former national security officials denounced it as Russian propaganda. This quickly became the narrative of the mainstream media. 18 months later, the lap-top is verified as Hunter Biden’s, but again the media quickly buries the story.

There is building evidence of a troubling pattern of behavior by our government. Our nation’s judicial system cannot properly serve the citizens if it is biased. The rule of law guides the actions, determines whether a crime has been committed and adjudicates the process fairly and without prejudice. The government is again, picking winners and losers, but this time based solely upon political affiliation. Ignore a Democrat’s transgressions, throw the hammer at any Republican that offends their sensibilities. And, at all costs, keep Donald Trump from ever holding office again.

Truth is that the Democrat leaders are driving this nation off a cliff, not only economically, but by tearing apart the social fabric of our society. They will dismantle this nation in order to achieve their goal of a new liberal world order. Democrats are daring the public to stop this insanity. They believe that you cannot. You do have the power to begin to take back this nation when you cast your vote this November. Or will you stand by and allow the Democrats to fundamentally transform this nation?
