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.

 

 

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

Fraudsters

 

There’s good reason that democrats are all about spending taxpayer money.

When organized criminal organizations acquire their ill begotten income, they need a method to circumvent the IRS. Many of these criminal enterprises use shadow companies to “launder” or hide their money from the authorities. Some criminals use real companies, but most are simply storefront businesses that create spreadsheets only. Noted 1930’s mobster Al Capone was incarcerated and died in Federal prison after being convicted of income tax evasion. One thing criminals always do is keep a record of their finances. That is how most criminals are eventually caught and prosecuted.

The efficiency of the democrat machine puts most criminal organizations to shame. The tangled web of fraud is deep and pervasive. The Substack site Dollar vs Peso has a great article documenting the fraud perpetrated by the democrat machine. Here. The United States government spent almost $7Trillion in 2024. That’s a 7 with 12 zeros after it. Hard to even imagine that much money. Harder still to have the proper oversight and management of those funds. But, if you’re in government long enough, one can find a way to redirect that funding to your benefit.

The now defunct USAID had a budget of $21.7Billion in 2024. Much of that funding went to non-governmental agencies (NGO) to administer. Once allocated for any matter of programs worldwide, government oversight ended. If you believe that the $50Million for condoms in Gaza were spent appropriately, I’ve got a bridge for sale that may interest you. $Millions were skimmed from these programs and redirected to the DNC from numerous USAID “programs” through various NGOs. Funding was provided to various entities that, in turn, redistributed a percentage of the funding to democrats and democrat causes. This scheme has been perfected by decades of corrupt politicians and bureaucrats that keep the gravy train rolling.

Catholic Relief Services (CRS) was the largest recipient of USAID funding, receiving $4.6Billion in 2024. They received an additional $2.9Billion in immigration related funding during the Biden administration. Over 90% of the political donations from employes of CRS went to democrat candidates and causes. Chemonics International was next with over $4.5Billion. 100% of political donations made by their employees went to democrat candidates. FHI 360 is next on the list with $3.8Billion in funding. Over 90% of their employees donated to democrat candidates. Planned Parenthood (PP) received $700Million in federal funding in 2024. PP donated over $5Million to democrat candidates and causes in 2024. George Soros’ Open Society received over $270Million from USAID since 2010. Your tax dollars go to fund soft on crime District Attorneys, is suspected of funding groups such as Antifa and Black Lives Matter, and other organizations that promote anarchy and disruption in democracies.

In a nutshell, democrats are dirty. Sure, some Republicans are too. Especially those who have been in office forever, but democrats are evil to the core. You can find blue dog, Kennedy democrats, but they are few and far between. In the hierarchy of democrat ambitions, serving the people is far down the list. Smurfs, straw democrat donors, used to give tens of $Millions to the DNC using their names and addresses, without their permission. Democrat funded and supplied protestors travel throughout the US to disrupt any policies deemed unsatisfactory by the democrat party. Lawsuit after lawsuit is filed by democrat operatives targeting everything from elections to congressional and executive actions to boards of education fighting wokeness. The democrats, their allies in the media, and activist judges will obstruct anything that impedes their agenda, and their agenda is counter to what we, the people want.

I was a loyal democrat until the mid-1990’s, union member, and chief steward. I voted for Jimmy Carter, twice. Yep, Bill Clinton, both times. Supported him during the Lewinsky impeachment hearings. Started listening to Rush Limbaugh on a bet for one week to prove to my conservative co-worker that I was right and he was wrong. I lost! That’s when I found out that I had closed my mind to anything that did not comport with my worldview. I had discovered the enemy, and it was me. I realized just how obtuse I had become. It was like my eyes had been opened for the first time. I began reading from conservative news and comparing it to liberal news. I became a recovering liberal who discovered just how bad democrat policies were to we, the people.

If more people took the time to really listen to all sides of an argument, I believe most would reject the policies of identity politics, wokeness, and divisiveness that embodies the democrat party. Democrats do not offer anything of value to we, the people. Democrats want to rule and not serve. Democrats are all about enriching themselves and maintaining power, that allows them to continue enriching themselves. Democrats must not remain in power in any government office or bureaucracy. We must clean house in Congress and remove partisan bureaucrats. If your representative is not aligned with your values, vote for someone who does. Let’s put God fearing, moral, and ethical servant leaders in Congress that serve we, the people, not themselves.

 

Exposed

 

How government waste and fraud enrich the democrat party.

Elon Musk and DOGE exposed massive waste and fraud in USAID. Ever wonder why the democrats screamed so loudly opposing DOGE and in turn, villainized Musk and by proxy, the most successful American electric car company, Tesla? The democrat machine has made fraud and corruption the hallmark of their success. Politicians have enriched themselves, financially and gained power and status through their positions in government. Each and every time a politician promises to make your life better, they devise ways to benefit themselves, their family, and their friends. You are merely pawns whose vote allows them to continue cheating the very people they are to represent. Politicians lie, repeatedly, but the democrats have perfected the art.

·         Taxpayer dollars funding programs from the now defunct USAID were transferred to non-governmental agencies (NGO’s) with little to no oversight once those funds were distributed. In turn, those NGO’s donated money to the democrat National Committee (DNC) and democrat candidates, with which they can enrich themselves and their families on your dime. Without their favorite money laundering entity, USAID, it is much more difficult for the democrat party to raise funds. The European Union (EU) has increased their funding to many of the corrupt NGO’s, but there certainly is a shortfall for the democrats. They will continue to maintain a flow of cash from other government assistance programs, through welfare fraud, fictitious social security recipients, and fraudulent SNAP beneficiaries.

·         Which brings us to the next democrat scam. Many of those non-existent government assistance collectors are also likely on the voter rolls of democrat run states. Do you really think there are that many democrat voters that are in-line with leftism? Hard to maintain your power if, suddenly, tens of thousands of democrat votes are eliminated. Why are ALL of the democrat run states refusing to turn over SNAP data to the federal government that would assist in rooting out fraud? The fraud in “repurposed” taxpayer funds is bad enough without democrat candidates being elected to office by non-existent voters, allowing them to keep the gravy train rolling.

·         And so how else do democrats game the system to their benefit? $Billions are allocated to one of the most corrupt countries in the world, Ukraine, to fight a proxy war against Russia. Yes, Russia invaded Ukraine, but that has not slowed the democrat machine in taking advantage of your hard-earned money. Once the funds are allocated, oversight ends. You heard that right. We have no idea where the money went once it entered Ukraine’s accounts. Ukraine, (perhaps at the behest of democrat leadership?) “invests” funds into FTX, a crypto-currency fund run by Sam Bankman-Fried, currently in federal prison on a fraud conviction. In the scheme, FTX “donates” $Millions to the DNC, democrat causes, and candidates. Congress continues to allocate funds to Ukraine. Quite the vicious circle. Now do you understand why the democrats continue to call to continue funding this never-ending foreign war?

Corruption is ingrained into the system that is the swamp of Washington DC. Career politicians, on both sides of the aisle, have concocted a fine-tuned operation, where elected officials thrive. Follow the money trail. Elected “representatives” have increased their net worth, often by $Millions, or in the case of investment “savant” Nancy Pelosi, by hundreds of $Millions. These corrupt politicians do not warrant the trust we imbue our representatives. It is our responsibility as citizens to be an informed electorate. If your representative is acquiring wealth when he/she should be sacrificing for this nation, it is time that they no longer “serve.” If your representative does not reflect your, or your community’s values, it is time for them to return to the private sector. If your representative believes that they rule, rather than serve, it is time to vote them out of office.

“We will vote for the country we want; we will vote for the future we want; we will vote for the politics we want; and we will vote to put this corrupt government cartel out of business and out of business immediately.”  Donald Trump

Do you understand now why “Trump Derangement Syndrome” infects every waking hour of the democrat party hivemind?

Mimic

 

Hear evil, repeat that evil, then act out with evil intent.

If you tell a lie often enough, some people will believe it, particularly weak-minded individuals. Leaders have a responsibility to be judicious with their words. Words spoken by leaders can carry great weight, as people trust that their leaders work for the betterment of all. Leaders must be first to condemn violence and to be the “cooler heads that prevail” in lowering the temperature. Leaders cannot be the inciters of violence by rhetoric that vilifies those of differing opinions. Yet, that is the modus operandi of the democrat party. The uptick in violence by the left is a direct result of unhinged democrat’s rants that are unduly influencing those who would commit acts of violence to “save democracy from tyrants.” Words may not be violence, but rhetoric that incites violence can be just as dangerous as wielding a firearm.

Satan has manifested himself in leftism and in the leadership of the democrat party. The willing pawns that conduct the actual violence are simply following the marching orders of their democrat leaders. Funding that enables these anarchists are funneled through a never-ending list of NGOs and non-profit organizations, using funding obtained through government grants and leftist philanthropists. Yes, US tax dollars are diverted from funding intended to be allocated to domestic and foreign programs. We are funding the very people intent on destroying this nation, when all the while democrat leaders act as their cheerleaders.

The father of lies shapes the very platform of the democrat party as they advocate the murder of the unborn, promote the mutilation of gender confused children, support lawless District Attorneys, encourage violence against law enforcement, deny God, and oppose the nuclear family.  

“You are guilty of lying, violence, and murder. You go to court, but you do not have justice on your side. You depend on lies to win your case. You carry out your plans to hurt others. You are always planning something evil, and you can hardly wait to do it. You never hesitate to murder innocent people. You leave ruin and destruction wherever you go, and no one is safe when you are around. Everything you do is unjust. You follow a crooked path, and no one who walks that path will ever be safe.” Isaiah 59:3-4, 7-8

There are many verses in the Bible warning us of the very behaviors that the left engages in and the democrat party tacitly supports, yet there are those who believe and teach that the Bible is outdated and not pertinent today. When the democrat party chose to fall in league with Satan, they sold their collective souls for power, wealth, and position. Those who choose to vote for democrats are simply useful idiots that are being used against their own self-interests.

Leftists and those who gravitate to and align themselves with leftist ideology have one thing in common; Rage and hatred toward those perceived to be oppressors, which include pretty much every normal person in this nation. When one displays negative emotions, it opens an avenue for Satan to unduly influence that person. The father of lies loves division. He absolutely loves it when we hate, rather than love our neighbor. Once embedded into the psyche of a person influenced by negative emotions, Satan will build upon that negativity, leading that person further apart from God. The distinction between right and wrong, good and evil, will be blurred, amplifying that negativity within that person.

Evil must be resisted. Evil must be exposed for what it is. Evil must be overcome with the love of Christ. Evil is driving the left. The left must be rejected. The democrat party has adopted the tenets of the left and uses those tactics to gain and maintain their positions of authority. If the democrat party triumphs, we all lose. Democrats must never again hold power. Democrats must be voted out of office, wholesale or they will never return to God. We must shake the dirt off our sandals and expose them for what they are. Their deeds need to come into the light for all to see.

Satan has unduly influenced a generation, leading them far away from God. The hatred manifesting itself within the left has been allowed to fester and grow due to the inaction of God’s people. We have stood idly by as Satan has placed a stranglehold on our neighbors and even some of our brothers and sisters in Christ. We cannot be silent any longer! Satan depends upon good Christian’s silence to succeed in his wicked schemes. This nation was founded upon a covenant with God. The founding fathers, through prayer and righteous debate, established this Constitutional Republic as one nation, under God. There is still time to save this nation. There is still time to plant the seeds that can take root in our neighbors that have become manipulated by the evil one. There is still time to reach out in Christian love that can lead the lost back to Christ.

Jesus told His disciples in the Great Commission, “Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20. He was also speaking to all future generations. Will you listen and act?

 

 

 

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?

Planned Obsolescence

 

Malicious malfeasance dominates NGO’s.

Those of you in my age bracket can remember the days of planned obsolescence. From the auto industry to appliances, each product seemed to be designed as a ticking time-bomb, ready to cease productive function that would perpetually necessitate the product to be replaced. This allowed their business model to keep the product line moving, building more and more replacements, and delivering their companies ever increasing sales income. We spent our hard-earned money on our brand new 1975 Chevrolet Impala that likely would not surpass 60,000 miles before the engine puked or body rusted off, necessitating a trade in for a new model every year or so.

Before the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) identified wasteful government spending, $Billions of our hard-earned tax dollars were diverted to United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for projects that “bettered” the lives of those in need. Those projects and that generosity would portray the United States as a compassionate benefactor to the world. Through USAID, Non-Governmental Agencies were allocated $Billions to support and improve the lives of Americans and the world in need. Unfortunately, just as our money was wasted on products designed to fail, this money was spread around to the benefit of leftist causes that most Americans did not support.

The four top recipients include Catholic Relief Services, which uses federal funding to enable illegal immigrants to avoid ICE prosecution, Chemonics International, which reroutes federal funding to Planned Parenthood organizations and promotes climate “solutions,” FHI 360, that funnels funding toward family planning, reproductive health, and human rights, worldwide. DAI Global, where $100 of millions were diverted away from projects in Nigeria into an account in Bethesda, MD. Just as auto manufacturers took advantage of their customers hard earned dollars, the unfettered and unaccountable allocation of federal tax dollars to these organizations have betrayed the US taxpayer.

Since funding for USAID has been interrupted, so has the fund-raising machine of the democrat party. Coincidence? Federal funds allocated by USAID to these left-wing organizations were returned to the DNC via contributions by those organizations. Understand now why the democrats are fighting so stringently to maintain federal funding to USAID? Without USAID contributing your tax dollars to NGO’s and non-profits and those tax dollars remitted back to their benefactors, the democrat party will be hard pressed to accumulate enough funding for their paid protesters, ballot harvesters, and false campaign advertising.

Tax dollars sent to Ukraine to fund the resistance to Vladamir Putin’s Russia aggression, ends up in oligarch’s pockets while other dollars were sent to Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX cryptocurrency company where they were rerouted to Act Blue, a fundraising arm of the DNC. Act Blue then uses “smurfs”, from lists of persons who made previous donations to the DNC, and makes numerous small donations in those names, that add up to $Millions, that are then funneled back to the DNC without the donor’s knowledge or permission. Quite the operation, isn’t it? Organized crime is small time compared to the money laundering engaged in by the democrat party. Yet, there are those that blindly support democrats that, in reality, turn against their constituency’s self-interests. “The career politicians in Washington have transformed a government “for and by the people” into a government for themselves and for special interests.” Tom Coburn. What a tangled web they weave!

“Extortion turns wise people into fools, and bribes corrupt the heart.” Ecclesiastes 7:7. For decades career politicians and the deep state has corrupted our government and have enriched themselves with our money. Democrats have perfected the scheme and many of our elected officials have become millionaires trading on their position while on the public dime. “Furthermore, select capable men from among the people—God-fearing, trustworthy men who are averse to dishonest gain. Appoint them over the people as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties, and of tens.” Exodus 18:21.

God’s Word is wise and enduring, especially today. We must select leaders that follow the Lord and keep His statutes. We need leaders who accept and practice the morals and ethics that mirror Scripture. We need leaders that are selfless and humble, averse to dishonest gain. We need leaders that work for the betterment of their constituency. We need leaders that are true public servants, not self-serving! It is up to us to get involved, get informed, and go out and vote for leaders that are pleasing to God.

“A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.” John C. Maxwell

 

 

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.

 

 

Lawless

 

Says democrats and the Deep State!

What happens when the rule of law is nothing but a cudgel to be used by the Biden administration and its’ minions to attack political enemies? The total disregard of the rule of law is the very tip of the iceberg for the “win at all cost” democrat party. Lawfare is just another tool for the left to target their political enemies. Yet, many have no issue with this strategy and support these devious efforts to destroy conservatism. Divide and conquer. Prosecute the law-abiding, ignore the anarchists. Foment as much division amongst the populace as necessary to reach their goals. Easy enough to accomplish with the assistance of a complicit media and the deep state bureaucracy. There is one thing, and one thing only that they fear, the re-election of Donald Trump and his stated goal to dismantle the deep state.

Make no mistake, the democrat party despises the general populace. They are at a point where they no longer need your vote. The democrat machine’s ballot harvesting scheme allows them to collect ballots, without it being necessary for the voter to complete it. Their data base contains the names of those who have previously donated or voted democrat. An effective money laundering scheme has directed “Smurf” donations in the 100’s of millions to the democrat party. Democrat voters not casting ballots prior to the election or even after, will have ballots completed and mailed in their names. Not to worry if signatures do not match or are absent, corrupt clerks in blue cities will accept any ballot for a democrat. Think that the flood of illegals does not matter if they are not in your back yard? Think again. Millions of illegals have been registered to vote by NGOs in democrat run cities in all the battleground states. They are using the homeless loophole that does not require ID and are using the NGOs address, so that ballots are mailed to the NGOs directly.

All the measures are in place for another election “rigged” in the democrat’s favor. Democrats have abandoned the rule of law causing the citizenry to distrust Federal law enforcement, the Federal judiciary, and our local, State, and Federal elections. Our currency is imprinted with the words “In God We Trust.” The democrat party has destroyed that trust in their unhinged quest for power, that includes eliminating God and His followers. It is time for the silent majority to speak up. It is time for Christians to awaken from our collective slumber. It is time that the democrat party face the consequences for misusing the trust that the electorate has loaned to them. It is time to vote democrats out of office.

Do not be comfortable if polls show Trump leading Harris. The democrat party is fully able to overcome narrow margins with their election fraud machine. In 2020, 62% of registered voters voted in the Presidential election, over a 7% increase from 2016. 38% of registered voters could have their ballots returned without their knowledge. Returning less than 5% of those votes fraudulently can turn an election without causing any undue suspicion. It is incumbent upon all of us to cast our vote and additionally, make certain that you inform and encourage like-minded people to vote.

On the Border

 

Kama-czarina?

The “On the Border” Restaurant chain offers many convenient locations to enjoy their Mexican cuisine and even has a loyalty rewards program. Presumptive democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris, who President Biden absolutely did not tab as border czar, (wink-wink) had nothing to do with the disaster on our southern border. But she is a co-defendant in the deliberate strategy to ignore immigration law. The Biden/Harris administration has provided many convenient locations for illegal border crossers, correction “asylum seekers.” They even provided a loyalty rewards program replete with free transportation, $5000 debit cards, free housing, food, medical care, and a sophisticated scheme to register them as homeless voters in blue cities in battleground states. How opportune for this lawless administration that prosecutes its political rivals and accuses them as a threat to democracy. As always, any accusations made by democrats mirror their own assault on the very foundations of this great nation.

The great and powerful orator Kamala has opined about her preferred policy on illegal immigration. Before her grand speech when she boldly pronounced, “Do not come,” before she became VP, I had the opportunity to observe Senator Harris’ office at the Capitol. It was arrayed with prominent signs, proudly announcing that undocumented immigrants were welcome here. Apparently, this doctrine continues to be employed by our Vice-President. Who needs borders when you can use NGOs (non-government organizations) to register illegals as homeless, without the requirement to provide identification and to use the NGOs as a mailing address. Then ship them off to blue states where they can be counted in the next census. Constitution be damned, if it benefits their side of the political aisle, they will do it! After all, the media will run cover for them.

A lawsuit challenging the Biden administration’s voting access executive order 14019, a federally funded, likely unconstitutional scheme that targets key democrat voting blocs, is currently heading to the Supreme Court. The lawlessness of the democrats is beyond the pale. In order to save democracy, democracy must be destroyed and replaced with socialism. This is the insanity that defines the ever-leftward leaning democrat party. And yet there are those that support this lunatic fringe that is the democrat party.

Unfettered immigration is the key for the democrats to remain in power. Their policies have been utter failures and benefit no one but themselves and their benefactors. Registering illegals to vote in the battleground states allows their NGO partners to collect, fill out, and return ballots. New voter registrations have increased dramatically in the battleground states of Nevada, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, and Georgia. How many registered Republicans do you think are included in those totals? There is nothing democratic about the democrat party. Like the bitter, childless cat lady, democrats selfishly serve party before country. Kamala Harris is the epitome of a self-centered, entitled politician, saying whatever she believes is necessary to assuage those who are listening.

Throughout history many nations fade away after 250 years. They often fall prey to the very tenets instituted to guide and benefit society. The failure of the United States of America is transpiring from within. The politicians that are elected to represent the citizens are eroding away the very rights and privileges they are tasked to serve and protect. Freedom of the press has enabled willing leftists to obliterate the truth and replace it with propaganda that makes the Soviet Union pale in comparison. When a political party can no longer convince the electorate to accept their policies and decides to use the full force of the government to attack their political opponents, they are no longer worthy to serve in elected office.

Kamala Harris supports unlimited, taxpayer funded abortion, term limits on the judiciary, but not on elected representatives, open borders with a path to citizenship for illegal border crossers, endless taxpayer funded wars, sexual mutilation of children, the green new deal, universal basic income, government funded health care for all, an end to the meritocracy to be replaced with race and gender as determining factors, and governmental control of the lives of the citizenry. Kamala Harris is grossly unqualified to lead this nation. Elect her and this nation will fall into the abyss and may never recover. And we will have no one to blame but ourselves.
