Packing it in

 

Virginia democrats to “save” democracy.

When court rulings upset democrats, they will fight to the end in order to get their way. There will no longer be a need to “pack the court” when conservatives rule constitutionally and common-sense reigns. Democrat-controlled States can just change the rules by passing unreasonable mandatory retirement ages. This is actually true. The Virginia Supreme Court ruled that the State’s “gerrymandering” referendum that recently passed 51-48%, overruling a previous independent redistricting, voter approved map, was unconstitutional. The democrat’s next effort to “save democracy” is to replace that entire current Supreme Court by legislating a mandatory retirement age of 54. Coincidently, the youngest justice is 54, creating an opportunity for democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger to simply appoint an entire slate of new justices that would rule favorably in any other democrat scheme to usurp the authority of the electorate.

This unabashedly malicious and unethical plot to overthrow the will of the people is simply more evidence that democrats care only about gaining and maintaining power. You see, democrats are not unlike petulant children that throw tantrums when they cannot get their way. Voters are merely pawns, to be literally used as tools to keep them in office. Democrats depend upon the drumbeat of the legacy media to amplify their lies and ignore their missteps. Subterfuge is the guiding principle of the democrat party. Keeping the uninformed believing the propaganda that they continually spew is all important. What democrats fear most is an informed electorate, that can see right through their lies.

In the marketplace of ideas, democrats fail. They support policies (transgenderism, abortion, governmental censorship, open borders, antisemitism, anti-incarceration, and on and on) that are opposed by and are detrimental to Americans. Why is it that the policies democrats support are upheld through friendly court decisions? Why is it that democrat operatives sue to prevent policies and legislation favorable to Americans but are opposed by the left? There are consequences to elections, particularly when leftist judges are appointed to the bench. It is no coincidence that those very same judges serve in venues that democrat operatives file their frivolous lawsuits. Never mind that higher courts overturn their rulings, these are roadblocks designed to delay good policies and legislation from taking effect.

Former democrats are leaving the party in droves as their eyes are finally opened to the contradiction that the democrat party has become. Their quest to “save” democracy, by supporting the no king’s movement, Black Lives Matter, condemning the “oligarchy,” and continually villainizing Trump, has shown those with eyes to see, ears to hear, and minds to comprehend, that they no longer are the party of the people. That ship began to sail with the advent of Barack Obama and his strategy to widen the racial and class divide rather than working to bring all Americans together. He championed diversity, equity, and inclusion that has simply divided the population by race, creed, and color. If Americans are at each other’s throats, democrats can commit atrocities against those too busy calling out one another for perceived “injustices.” If Americans saw one another as Americans with common goals, democrats would be lost. Without a bogeyman, there is no one to blame for democrat failures.

As more of the corruption democrats have engaged in is exposed, their claim to any legitimacy is destroyed. As democrat policies are exposed to the light of day, more and more Americans reject them. The result of the mid-term elections in November will indicate whether Americans are finally paying attention. If they are, democrats will lose seat upon seat in Congress, Governorships, and State legislatures. If not, the United States may just be heading to the same conclusion as other nations that fell under their own weight. Every American that wants this great nation to continue to provide rest for the weary, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness must not only make certain to cast their own ballot but should make certain to encourage any conservative they know to cast their ballots. Failure to right the ship may just doom this nation to become another in a long line of failed nations.

“Great nations which fail to meet their responsibilities to God are consigned to the dust bin of history. We grew from that small, weak republic which had as its assets spirit, optimism, faith in God and an unshakeable belief that free men and women could govern themselves wisely. We became the leader of the free world, an example for all those who cherish freedom. If we are to continue to be that example-if we are to preserve our own freedom-we must understand those who would dominate us and deal with them with determination.” — Ronald Reagan

Democrats govern foolishly and selfishly. Democrats reject the authority of God. Democrats reject common sense. Continue to elect them as leaders and they will put an end to our cherished freedoms. We must understand that they intend to dominate us from within and vote accordingly.

 

Suicidal Empathy

 

Flushing the future.

Perhaps Trump Derangement Syndrome is the determining factor in the election of some of the leftist idiots to Congress. Perhaps it is the legacy media at fault for shaping the opinion of the people foolish enough to depend on them for the truth. Perhaps people are so compartmentalized that they would vote for anyone with a (D) after their name. Perhaps hatred has run amok on the left. Unfortunately, the low information voter has way too much influence on the body politic. Leading the way for the less intelligent are our college campuses. Should be an oxymoron, but drop the “oxy” and that moniker would be a much better fit.

Leftist college administrators and Marxist professors are sucking the intelligence out of our best and brightest, substituting real learning with simplistic catch phrases to be parroted repeatedly. Telling is that most cannot or do not understand what the chant “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” even means. Troubling is that a majority of people in the 18-25 age bracket have a favorable opinion of socialism. Even more troubling is that they have cultivated a generation who hate their country and their “whiteness” without valid reason. And when they vote, they choose those who would do the most damage to their future.

Wisconsin’s previous two elections placed Jill Karofsky, a crazy leftist, and Janet Protasiewicz, an even crazier leftist on the Wisconsin Supreme court. On Tuesday, April 7^th, Wisconsin elected Chris Taylor, the craziest leftist, to a ten-year term on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Why does a 50-50 state like Wisconsin opt to put into power leftist judges that actually declare their intent to legislate from the bench? The constant drumbeat against Republicans and conservativism by the legacy media is beginning to reap dividends. When lies are repeated often enough, the weak-minded will eventually begin to believe them as truth. Hate and anger are some of our strongest emotions and the left has been ingraining their hatred into the nation’s conscience.

What are democrats for and what policies do they support? We certainly know what they are against, all things that President Trump proposes to enhance the lives and security of this nation. Seems to be working for them lately. At least in Wisconsin it is. We will have to wait and see what bat-shit-crazy-leftist-in-the-pocket of the democrats will fill the next seat on Wisconsin’s highest court. Act 10 will be going down, and as a direct result, property taxes will skyrocket. Voter ID is over, sanctuary state here we come, CRT and DEI will replace STEM in our schools, and abortion will be available up to birth on the taxpayer dime. Who says elections don’t have consequences? Oh, and the LGBTQI+ community will finally have their day, I mean month, complete with a permanent flag flying at the Capitol.

Give them what they want, and they will get what they deserve. Except that normal taxpaying citizens will be lost in the shuffle and be left to endure the woke and tax hell that will suck the life right out of us. Democrats are hell-bent at burning this nation to ashes and utterly destroying the very fabric of a civil society. When normal people finally realize where the left wants us to go, it will likely be too late to turn the ship around. It matters not that democrats will end up on the wrong side of history, it only matters that they are the ones in power to write the narrative. As with the former Soviet Union, the United States will crumble just like the Berlin wall.

Blue states refuse to cooperate with the Federal authority of the DOJ, blocking orders to turn over voter data necessary to purge the rolls of ineligible voters. Why? Because there are hundreds of thousands, potentially millions of voters either dead, no longer living at those addresses or in those states, are illegal aliens, or simply do not nor have ever existed. The democrat ballot harvesting effort is more than just effective, collecting ballots from those who would not likely vote and those who do not exist, but are still on the voter rolls. Working with NGO’s, democrats enroll all manner of illegal voters, all with the return address of those same NGO’s. Tens of thousands of ballots from swing states only voted for President, and no other candidates in the 2020 election, evidence that those particular ballots were completed hastily, likely by the same person(s).

Just like Satan, democrats trade in lies and half-truths to convince the gullible to keep them in power. They support what 70-80% of the mainstream reject. Democrats intend to expand government, by raising taxes, imposing greater regulations on businesses, and enforcing unreasonable laws upon the populace. Unless we can convince our next generation of the dangers the leftist ideology embraced by democrats pose, we will continue to sink further into the abyss. Until young Americans understand what freedom is and to hold to the truths that are self-evident, our nation is at risk. If we remain silent, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness may only be words, printed on an outdated manuscript. There is good reason that our nation was founded upon the values enumerated in the Constitution and we must hold fast to those values. Failure to do so will lead to the failure of our society.

“Our government leaders … have made many mistakes in the past when they have lost sight of the sacred American values rooted in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. We are at the brink of even graver mistakes and assaults on these values.” –Samuel Dash

Dazed and Confused

 

Innocents are being led astray.

“Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to the one through whom they come! It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.” Luke 17:1-2.

Our adversaries stand to gain financially and in world status by destabilizing the fabric of society in the western world, particularly in the United States. Transgenderism, particularly when children are involved, is one of the most contentious subjects facing society. This nation has been divided along lines of political ideology as the left engages in a shadow civil war. March 4, 2024 Breitbart posted an article titled Blood Money.  Blood Money: Why the powerful turn a blind eye while China kills Americans, a book by Peter Schweizer, identifies two Communist China linked billionaires funding groups that are causing unrest in our streets and the effort to normalize the radical sexualization of children. American born Neville Roy Singham, an avowed Marxist and Joseph Tsai, the co-founder of Alibaba are using their $Billions to destabilize America.

Singham alone has funneled over $100Million to Marxist organizations like The People’s Forum, that has links to the Party of Socialism and Liberation. (PSL) The PSL declares on their website, “For the planet to live, capitalism must die” and the PSL leader encouraged its members to conduct a “militant defense of Communist China.” Interesting that Singham earned his wealth by using the capitalist system. Rather than being thankful for the inalienable rights that led to an opulent lifestyle and the freedoms guaranteed in his successful pursuit of happiness, he seeks to destroy the economic system he used to enrich himself from his home in Shanghai, China. Singham also seeks to promote the LGTBQ+ agenda, through events such as, Revolution 8-13, “Becoming Numerous: Legacies of queer and trans rebellion.”

Paraphrased from the book, “These pro-Beijing groups see the trans movement as a powerful force to advance their pro-Beijing agenda and push to further radicalize the movement. The unity of our movements terrifies them. Linking black radical movements, the anti-police movement, and socialism together is extremely, extremely dangerous to the capitalist order.”

In 2021, the Joe and Clara Tsai Foundation committed $220Million to their Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance, formed to support initiatives that include transgender female athletes as well as those assigned female at birth. It also funds Boston’s Children’s Hospital, that is at the forefront of gender reassigning surgeries for minors. The Communist China government has declared that the LGTBQ+ community is “an evil foreign influence that prevents young people from marrying and having children” and bans “effeminate men” on television, among other depictions that could be seen as pro-gay.” The Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance does not advocate for trans or LGTBQ+ rights in China.

“When free discussion is denied, hardening of the arteries of democracy has set in, free institutions are but a lifeless form, and the death of the republic is at hand.” William Randolph Hearst.

The true adversaries of the United States do not seek to destroy us by the sword; they infiltrate to weaken and tear down our institutions and society by creating dissention and division. Using the very freedoms granted to our citizens by our Constitution, foreign actors use their wealth, usually gained through the free enterprise system, fund groups seeking to create chaos. Yet the legacy media, the Fourth Estate, academia, the democrat party, and Hollywood celebrities champion the “cause” of these anarchist groups. Most of us stand idly by, not paying any attention to the enemies within our gates that are working to undermine our Republic in plain sight.

These leftist organizations promote policies that harm the most vulnerable. They advocate for the murder of the unborn. Children are the victims of sexual mutilation and confusion from radical trans and LGBTQ+ ideology encouraged by leftist public school teachers and administrations. We are called to protect the most vulnerable of us, not stand idly by while their lives are ruined. Hate, anger, and division are the breeding grounds for the evil one. Evil must be called out and stood against. Leftist ideology sows the seeds of evil while blinding those who support and advocate for it. The strategy of infiltrating our nation will only succeed if we allow it. God’s people must wake up and make a stand. If we fail to acknowledge and resist the evil that is running rampant in our world, the evil one will succeed in turning good people to evil.

“It is true that I am an ordinary, weak human being, but I don’t use human plans and methods to win my battle. ⁴ I use God’s mighty weapons, not those made by men, to knock down the devil’s strongholds. ⁵ These weapons can break down every proud argument against God and every wall that can be built to keep men from finding him. With these weapons I can capture rebels and bring them back to God and change them into men whose hearts’ desire is obedience to Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10:3-5

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 1^st 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!

 

 

 

Spoiled Rotten

 

Entitled petulance reigns supreme.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 

 

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 1^st 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

 

In a Perfect World.....

In a perfect world there would be no disease, no hunger, no homelessness, no death, no left or right, no wars or conflicts of any kind, we would love and care for each other, but we do not live in a perfect world. Humanity is always looking for the next cure all for society’s ills. As much as we desire that this world would hold no malice toward any of God’s children, we are a broken humanity unable to use our vast knowledge and resources to perfect our earthly home. Although we think that we are at the peak of enlightenment, that humanity has this firm grasp on what ails us, we are not even close to being able to solve some of the simplest problems that we face. Of our own volition, we sputter about pointing blaming fingers at one another when we fail to resolve the myriad of issues that continue to plague us.

While COVID-19 may be the crisis of opportunity for some of us, our efforts to confront this invisible foe have failed miserably. The more data we gather about this novel coronavirus, the more we fail to adapt in the war against this hidden enemy. Granted, the initial response to an unknown disease, with lockdown orders made sense at the time, continued isolation has actually exacerbated the problem. Governor Cuomo of New York stated that more than 66% of the COVID-19 cases were people staying sheltered at home. He further stated that this made no sense to him and he could not understand how this could be. Renowned health expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci in a March interview, very cavalierly stated that wearing a face mask would not protect anyone from this disease. He has since done a 180 and face masks are now recommended and even being required at a growing number of businesses. Other studies show that wearing a face mask may actually increase your risk of infection by recirculating your breath and causing you to rebreathe contaminants.

Democrat leadership is exploiting our irrational fear, stoked by the mainstream media that delightfully provides the running death count, inserting leftist agenda policies into legislation intended to offer assistance to those harmed by the pandemic that may just be the first steps to fundamentally transform this great nation into a socialist state. Initially, the goal of these lockdowns was to “flatten the curve” so that there would not be a large spike in cases that could very well overwhelm our health care system. This plan was accepted by the vast majority of our population, even giving up their treasured Constitutional rights, if it meant giving our nation the ability to cope with this pandemic. What has become lost in the translation is that this strategy was never to eliminate the total infections or deaths, just to spread them out over a longer period and make the treatment and care of the infected manageable. Yes, this approach did not seek to reduce infection or death caused by COVID-19, just give us more time, but this plan has been altered to remain “safe at home” until a vaccine could be produced. SARS and MERS are coronavirus’ without a vaccine. The common cold is a coronavirus without a vaccine. Dr. Fauci has been working on a vaccine for HIV for 40 years without success. There may never be a vaccine developed and even if one is developed, it will not be 100% effective, vaccines never are. The seasonal flu shot is typically 40-60% effective.

We are faced with choices daily that place us in harm’s way. Deaths due to accidents approach 170,000 annually, with over 40,000 of those perishing in auto accidents. Drug overdoses kill over 70,000 people annually in the US. Almost 50,000 people took their own lives last year. In a perfect world, none of these things would happen. In a perfect world we would be safe, secure and happy in all we do. This world will never be perfect. No matter how hard we try, we can never make that a reality. But, there is one perfect place. There is one place where we never grow tired, old or die. There is one place where everyone delights in perfect love and we all can agree, even in our politics. That one place is not on this earth. That one place is prepared for all of God’s children, regardless of our differences. Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” All of our questions are forever answered when we believe in God’s one true Son. All of our trials and troubles end with Him. All of our needs, wants and desires are forever granted if only we believe. There is nothing you can do to earn God’s love. There is nothing you can do to make God love you any less. We can’t perfect our world, but God offers perfection. Open your heart to the love that is eternal, unconditional and freely given. Open your heart to the one who died so that you can live, forever with our Father in heaven. Open your heart and be welcomed to the perfect, eternal life that your heart so aches to achieve.
