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.

 

Crazy Train

A nation divided cannot stand.

Never thought that of all people, Ozzie Osborne, could be a prophet, but after President Biden’s Labor Day speech, perhaps he is. From the song, Crazy Train – “Crazy, but that’s how it goes. Millions of people, living as foes. Maybe it’s not too late to learn how to love and forget how to hate. I’ve listened to preachers, I’ve listened to foes. I’ve watched all the dropouts that live by their own rules. One person conditioned to rule and control. The media sells it and you live the role. Heirs of a cold war, that’s what we’ve become. I’m going off the rails on a crazy train.” Christian, conservative, married, heterosexual, retired police officer, former County Board Chairman and Trump voter, I am exactly what the Left and their leader, Joe Biden, fear and despise. Respect for the rule of law becomes a threat to democracy. Support America first is tantamount to semi-fascism. Opposing open borders, indoctrination of our children and military, recognizing that all people matter and acknowledging the reality that there are only two genders is radical and divisive. We are going off the rails on a crazy train!

Mandela Barnes is the anointed Democrat candidate for the United States Senate, with all challengers dropping out of the race and endorsing him.  Barnes, whose given name is Jesse, uses his middle name to his advantage. He is nothing like Nelson Mandela. Barnes life’s legacy has been supporting progressive, left-wing organizations. He supports ending cash bail, defunding the police, the Green New Deal, unlimited abortion, Medicare for all and legalizing marijuana. He chaired the Governor’s task force on climate change, yet could not cite a single policy he helped implement when asked about it at a climate change event at UW-River Falls in March of 2022. Perhaps, he could not recall because he was overcome by carbon monoxide fumes from the Wisconsin State Patrol vehicle, used as his personal escort service, that he ordered to run continuously when at the Capitol, so that the interior climate was appropriately comfortable for him. This “service” cost taxpayers over $600,000 during his 4-year term as Lieutenant Governor. Also known as ManDead-Beat Barnes for being delinquent on his property taxes and failing to pay parking tickets, leading to his Wisconsin Driver’s license being suspended. He also falsely claimed to be a college graduate for years. Barnes is a founding member of the Working Families Party of Wisconsin, an offshoot of ACORN, that supports defunding the police. Minnesota became a laughingstock by electing a professional wrestler as Governor and a Saturday Night Live comedian as their US Senator. Barnes, who thinks he is running against Scott Walker, (just a slip of the tongue according to his spokesperson) to represent Wisconsin in the Senate. We are going off the rails on a crazy train!

The incumbent Senator, Ron Johnson has been a proven leader, unafraid to challenge the status quo. The Joseph Project works with faith-based organizations to help inner city residents become gainfully employed. The Right to Try Act allows those suffering from incurable illness access to drugs not yet approved by the FDA. He will continue to fight against the reckless spending and exposing the use of the federal justice system to target political enemies. Being transparent and honest makes him a target for the left and the entrenched Deep State. We need more elected representatives that do the right thing, not some lifelong bureaucrat to perpetuate the disfunction in Washington DC.

Governor Tony Evers is the quintessential bureaucrat that lacks any experience outside of the government. Like far too many politicians, his life experience ill prepared him for a role as Governor. His crowning achievements consist of vetoing more bills and pardoning more criminals that any other Governor in our history. Plagiarism is one of his more popular methods for taking credit for other’s accomplishments. He even took credit for the Republican crafted budget that reduced taxes $2 Billion when the budget presented by Evers raised taxes by $1 Billion. He did sign it though. Evers’ legacy will be that of Illegal lockdowns, closed schools, mask mandates, anti-police rhetoric, the failure to lead during the Kenosha riots and walking lock-step with the failed policies of the Biden administration.

Tim Michels, Evers’ opponent, is a businessman that created thousands of jobs and runs a successful company. Michels, like all successful entrepreneurs, has a detailed plan to solve what ails us. He has a blueprint with solutions to our bloated and ineffective government on his website. Fancy that, an actual plan, on paper for all to read, rather than slogans and platitudes. The contrast could not be clearer. Democrats are running this nation off the rails on a crazy train of wokeness, lawlessness and anti-Constitutionalism. We need leaders that want to solve problems, not perpetuate them while creating more problems that will require more of the taxpayer’s money thrown at them. It’s your choice.

Reckless

 

Is this the beginning of OUR end?

Mainstream media leaves no doubt that they have become the mouthpiece of the democrat party and the Left. Chaos is their best friend. When Kyle Rittenhouse shot and killed two assailants and wounded another during the August 2020 riots in Kenosha, the lawless mainstream media could not contain themselves. In the United States, one is presumed innocent until proven guilty. The media inflamed the mob after the Jacob Blake shooting by the police in Kenosha, WI in August of 2020. Anti-police rhetoric, false narratives of police brutality and the incessant downplaying of “mostly peaceful protests”, emboldened the mob to engage in rioting, looting and arson. Governor Evers refused to deploy the National Guard and police were ordered to stand down. Lacking an appropriate police presence, left the rioters without tangible consequences and mayhem ensued. Mainstream media continues to encourage anarchy and destruction with their unabashed Leftist rhetoric. There is blood on their hands.

President Biden and a litany of democrats poured additional gasoline (more likely a non-oil-based accelerant) on the fire by declaring their anger at the verdict. Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers had the unmitigated gall to make a statement, “No ruling today changes our reality in Wisconsin that we have to work to do toward equity, accountability, and justice that communities across our state are demanding and deserve.” Needless to say, Evers did send troops to Kenosha after the verdict was announced. Wisconsin Lieutenant Governor and US Senate candidate Mandela Barnes went further. “We have seen so many black and brown youth killed, only to be put on trial posthumously, while the innocence of Kyle Rittenhouse was virtually demanded by the judge.” This unabated anger mongering by elected officials is only meant to encourage further division and hatred. The rioting in 2020 has led to 25 deaths, over 2,000 police officers injured and $billions in property destruction. Our former divider in chief, Barack Obama issued numerous statements decrying police brutality and unfair targeting of persons of color by “white” society. This helped facilitate the rise of the Occupy movement, Antifa, Black lives matter and increased violence against police. As police are ordered to stand down and progressive District Attorneys refuse to criminally charge the rioters, the mob is further emboldened.

Kyle Rittenhouse, came to Kenosha Wisconsin to help protect property after a call to action was posted on social media, joining other citizens to augment the lack of police intervention. He armed himself with an AR-14, equipped himself with medical supplies to tend to any injured and was cleaning up graffiti. Should he have been there? Did he exhibit poor judgement by placing himself at risk? Did he really consider the consequences of his actions? Probably not. The question is, does his presence with a weapon make him guilty of a crime? If you watch any of the mainstream media, you would be led to believe that it did. This is patently false, a lie that has been proclaimed over and over. Joe Scarborough of MSNBC led the charge by accusing Rittenhouse of vigilantism, intending to target persons of color and indiscriminately firing 60 rounds, when he actually fired only 4 times, directly at what he believed were threats to his life.

Rittenhouse has been vilified by both the media and democrats without valid reason. If anyone can look at the video of the incidents and not understand that they are almost picture-perfect examples of self-defense, that person is either a liar or an idiot. Speaking of idiots, who in their right mind would attack a person armed with a long rifle shouting out that he is a friendly? Hate to say it, but sometimes culling the herd is not always a bad thing. Nick Sandman, the high schooler who was confronted by a drum beating Native American activist in Washington, DC, was also vilified by the media. He sued for defamation and the media paid out over $100 million to settle the cases. Here’s hoping that Rittenhouse follows Sandman’s lead. Let’s hope that the reckless disregard of the truth is finally put to bed or that enough people maligned and lied about, sue them into non-existence. If we fail to understand that the Left is engaged in the pursuit of destroying our Constitutional Republic and that the mainstream media and democrat party are becoming increasingly aligned with the Left, our nation will fall. Just like Tass and Pravda spread communist propaganda in the Soviet Union, our mainstream media mirrors the same tactics.

On Saturday, November 20th, 2021, Darrell Brooks, a black man, drove his vehicle through a Christmas Parade in Waukesha, WI and mowed over 50 people, including children, killing 6. Vaun Mayes, a “Black Lives Matter” activist declared the following Monday, "But it sounds possible that the revolution has started in Wisconsin. It started with this Christmas parade." This is what our nation is becoming. This is what those who want to be “woke” are supporting. This is the enemy that will destroy us from within. To my democrat friends, is this what you signed up for and support? Is this what is best for our nation? Are you paying attention to what the leadership of your party is espousing? It is long past time to wake up and smell the roses. To the “woke” left and the useful idiots that support their inane ideology, you will be remembered in history as was the Emperor Nero, who fiddled as Rome burned except that you are actually stoking the fire.

Integrity

 

Do you want your vote to matter?

Integrity, noun; firm adherence to a code of especially moral or artistic values-Incorruptibility, an unimpaired condition-Soundness, the quality or state of being complete or undivided-Completeness.

Election integrity legislation, particularly those laws proposed in red states, are under fire. To the left, these proposed laws are decried as “voter suppression” that harken back to the Jim Crow laws of the south. What do these voter integrity laws hope to accomplish and are they really discriminatory. For the sake of brevity, let’s consider the Wisconsin legislation recently vetoed by Governor Tony Evers, what was proposed in the bills and what issues were intended to be remedied by those bills.

Registered voters must submit an absentee ballot sealed in a separate envelope, signed with valid addresses by both the voter and a witness. Additionally, the application requires the voter to certify eligibility to vote in said election. Why? The Wisconsin Elections Commission issued unlawful guidelines to County Clerks, advising them to “cure” absentee ballots that were not submitted with the required signatures or addresses rather than following the law and contacting the individual voter to correct the ballot.

Indefinitely confined voters, overseas voters, and all other voters, other than military voters, will no longer automatically receive an absentee ballot. Those voters will be sent absentee ballot applications and will need to reapply for each election. Active-duty service members are exempted. Why? County Clerks in Dane and Milwaukee Counties advised voters to register as indefinitely confined, due to the covid pandemic, to circumvent the requirement to provide identification. An additional 200,000 ballots were requested by “indefinitely confined” voters, including able bodied elected State legislators, for the November 3^rd, 2020 election. Under current law, all those voters would automatically receive an absentee ballot for all future elections.

Municipal or county clerks are prohibited from sending or transmitting an absentee ballot application or an absentee ballot to a voter for purposes of voting in an election unless the voter applies for the application or ballot as provided by law. Why? Mailing absentee ballot applications and absentee ballots without a voter request, substantially increases the chances that a ballot is not sent to the appropriate voter, due to address changes.

Once the canvassing of absentee ballots begins, the municipal clerk must hourly post, at his or her office and on the Internet, a statement showing the number of absentee ballots that the clerk has mailed or transmitted to voters, the number of absentee ballots that have been returned to the clerk, the number of absentee ballots counted, and the number of absentee ballots remaining to be counted. Why? Any charges of “ballot dumping” will be eliminated as the number of outstanding absentee ballots will be known and published.

Election observers should have equal access to all parts of the election process and forbids observers from interfering with electors or election officials. Appropriate areas would be designated for election observers, no more than 3 feet away where ballots are being examined or processed. Why? Because of the ongoing Covid pandemic, rules were ignored and poll watchers were denied access by election officials in some districts.

Local governments would be prohibited from accepting funding from and/or abdicating their Statutory required election administration responsibilities by contracting with outside groups to administer their elections. Why? This would prevent municipalities from accepting funding from organizations as an incentive to run their elections according to the grantors, or to surrender the election administration, such as what occurred in Green Bay. Those funds would still be allowable, but any elections grant must go through the Wisconsin Elections Commission before being distributed per-capita to all municipalities statewide.

Employees of long-term care facilities would be prohibited from coercing a resident right to vote, and would have required them to admit Special Voting Deputies to assist in the election process, unless there is a declared federal or state health emergency. The bill would have required long-term care facilities to have employees trained like Special Voting Deputies in case the Deputies are not allowed to visit for public health reasons. Why? Public testimony at State hearings revealed that this abuse did occur.

Only family members, legal guardians, or designated people would be allowed to return a person’s absentee ballot. The bill would have prohibited anyone from being paid to return absentee ballots. Any event where a voter may return their absentee ballot in-person must comply with existing early voting requirements. Why? Chain of custody is necessary in order to assure that only legally cast ballots are counted.

When one reads the bills and understands their intent, the accusation of voter suppression rings hollow and Evers’ vetoes wholly partisan. These bills would have corrected a number of issues that plagued the 2020 Presidential election and would increase voter confidence in a fair and impartial election process.
