The Bike Paths of Agenda 21: They cost a lot of money and very few people use them, especially in conservative West Chester

I’m probably the last person not to like bike paths.  I use the newly created bike paths and trails in the West Chester and Liberty Township areas extensively for the videos I make with these articles I write.  I have spent thousands of hours on them filming these videos, so I would say it’s safe to say I am an extensive user and have walked every mile of all of them many times over.  However, I understand why West Chester Trustee Mark Welch is not a fan of the proposed connecting bike path that has been discussed for running through West Chester, from the Mason area, aiming to link the Little Miami River to the Great Miami.  There is a long-planned fantasy to connect those rivers through this part of southern Ohio, and logic is not at the center of any considerations.  This issue recently arose when I was writing an article about vertiports in West Chester, and Mark and I discussed the bike paths and parks that are part of the United Nations’ Agenda 21 and 2030 sustainability plans, which end up in local planning offices across the United States.  The blind commitment to bike paths from foreign planning commissions that cost a lot of money is going to be a centerpiece to the re-election of Mark Welch and whether we embrace a future off the lessons of the past, or we follow the mindless dictates of foreign influence and their radical ideas about climate science that are at the heart of building more green space to inspire humans not to use their cars so much, and to get healthier lifestyles that don’t put too much burden on the top heavy cost health care industry that is corrupted by labor unions and pharmaceutical company monopoly status. 

The current dream is to connect bike path infrastructure along Tylersville Road, West Chester and to meet up with the existing bike path built near the Trinity Pub in Port Union.  Before I outline my next comments, I see numerous positive uses for these bike paths. I have a grandson who is riding them all over the state.  He and his dad are planning a trip to Cleveland from their home along the Loveland Bike Trail, which is used pretty extensively. However, proportionally speaking, we are still talking about under 2% of the population that uses them at any particular time.  They are not being used in the way that Agenda 21 sustainability planners envisioned in their communist fantasies.  Nothing ever works out as planned.  However, I think they are pretty neat in a luxury-oriented culture.  It’s nice to have them, but they are not used by most taxpayers, not even occasionally.  So Mark’s position in West Chester is to put the issue to a vote, and if people vote in favor of spending money on the bike paths, then he’d be all for it.  However, paying good money from the current tax base is not a good idea, as it is using government power in the wrong way.  Bike paths are not a core competency of government, and for the trustees of West Chester, it’s too much to ask them to take on.  But for the bottom feeders who are trying to knock Mark out of this race and to take his seat, completing these bike paths with taxpayer money will be one of the foundations of their campaigns as a feel-good sentiment that does not have broad appeal, but might sound like a good idea without context. 

The bike path that starts at Port Union, near the Trinity Pub, cost approximately $13.8 million to construct.  It was relatively easy because it runs along the property that used to be part of the Erie Canal, which ran from Hamilton down into downtown Cincinnati through the Mill Creek Valley.  Before there was even a railroad, or I-75, there was the Erie Canal.  That’s why Port Union is named that way, because that was a port of entry for getting on the canal.  So, what was left of it was open, unused land that was perfect for building a bike path to preserve parts of it for historical perspective.  The land was relatively easy to acquire, and to the north of it was raw farmland with minimal residential properties to contend with.  And that is the constant theme of most of the bike paths that have sprung up all over Ohio, including the one my nine-year-old grandson plans to use to ride to Cleveland and back.  I think it’s a pretty bold and cool idea for him and his dad to do, as I show them here using the bike paths for training for that adventure together.  But most of those bike paths are built along rivers and railroads, and don’t involve much eminent domain.  However, to cut through West Chester, it will be costly to create the bike path because there is a lot of private property to acquire, and numerous eminent domain cases will be a significant issue.  So it’s nowhere near as easy as building the bike path at Port Union.  Bike paths, under the best conditions, cost approximately $ 250,000 to $ 500,000 per mile.  The cost increases significantly when private property is involved, as it would be in West Chester, Ohio.  A concept that the Agenda 21 planners never anticipated, given that their monetary policy was based on Modern Monetary Theory, where they planned for governments to print fake money. In Europe, the concept of private property often takes a back seat to state needs and desires.  The people who want bike paths in West Chester are those kinds of Democrat thinkers. 

So, I spend a lot of time at the one by Trinity Pub, and I hardly ever see anybody there.  When the Trinity Pub was built, it was intended to be a hub for the bike path, and it would be a great idea if people used the trail.  But that little restaurant has barely hung on and is under its latest set of owners, who are trying to get things going there, but without much success.  I’d like to see them make it, but the bike path hasn’t helped them at all because nobody uses it.  So with all this expense involved, why do them?  Although I like and use them, the cost does not make sense.  Especially when private property acquisition is involved, these bike paths form an extensive network, and I was surprised to see how nice they are, even in remote areas between Middletown, Ohio, and Franklin, along the Great Miami River.  They are nice to have, but they are part of a luxury culture that can afford them.  They will never be used in the way the Agenda 21 planners envisioned, as a means to replace cars, save the planet from human beings, and keep people from traveling on vacation because they had plenty of parks in their neighborhoods to visit.  All the central planners involved in America got suckered by this European fantasy, and Mark Welch has declared himself not to be one of those suckers.  If voters want to raise their taxes to pay for something that they will never use, then fine.  But in the back of all logic, it says that people don’t care.  Especially if they have to pay for it out of their own pockets, and when it comes to the West Chester Bike Path to connect the Little Miami River to the Great Miami River, they just won’t.

In Florida, You Can Run Protestors Over: Fighting communists rioting against ICE deportations

You did notice that there are no mass protests in Florida, where communists trained in our colleges take to the streets in one of these anti-ICE deportation mobs to block traffic with their bodies.  In Florida, if people throw their bodies in front of your car to stop you, you are allowed to run them over.  There are some technical and legal gymnastics involved, but in essence, protesters are not allowed to block traffic in Florida.  Because drivers won’t be prosecuted for driving over their scummy, dirty, communist bodies, and that’s how it should be in every American state.  It’s nice to have Free Speech, but that speech cannot impose itself on other people and cause them discomfort or even harm.  And blocked traffic is reprehensibly disruptive.  But there’s more to it than that, even.  We are not obligated in America to tolerate enemies of our nation.  And to hide hostile, treasonous intent behind any form of Free Speech.  And this is what the social Marxists, communists, and open socialists want to do by working against the values of America while using the values of Free Speech to attempt to undercut the foundations of society itself.  We must recognize what is truly happening with these individuals. Suppose they show up to a rally outside of Sheriff Jones’ jail in Butler County, for instance, as they have been doing, wearing a t-shirt indicating membership in a socialist organization. In that case, they are openly declaring war against the United States and the self-governed people of that nation.  And actions worse than legal prosecutions are more than justified.  Those people are declaring war on our way of life, and we need to treat them that way.  We have no obligation to be accommodating to people who are trying to overthrow our country, and these protestors against the ICE deportations are with their stated intent.

There is a lot to unpack behind the supporters of these protestors who have blocked traffic in Los Angeles and made themselves into a menace to society.  Having different opinions on a matter and expressing them openly in the marketplace of ideas is one thing.  Impeding people’s lives with those opinions, with the explicit intention of using force and inconvenience to convey their point, is not acceptable.  And for the people who are financing these protests, there is a lot of action that we must take against them.  Everyone needs to stop thinking of the government as something separate from themselves, done by some mysterious people in power.  Self-government means we elect people into positions that need to be filled, and they work on our behalf to accomplish the tasks assigned to them.  So we must protect that government from attack when it does happen.  In this case, Trump was elected to do our work.  And we must preserve his ability to do that work on our behalf.  That work cannot be stopped by a bunch of lifetime appointed judges with both feet into Marxist causes as they have been lured into that political philosophy during their Friday night wine tasting social gatherings, and they have learned to drink the brew with their pinky out to disguise from their spouses detrimental elements of porn addiction and diabolical life choices they want to hide behind collectivist living.  The people who are attacking our country are attacking us, and they use these mindless, dumb kids right out of college, and the old hippies of the Flower Child generation who are still alive to provoke them into antagonisms against all things American.  Even in some of these protests, the American flag was burned while the Mexican flag was hoisted with reverence as if domination over occupation were a forgone conclusion. 

Most of the wars that Americans have fought over the last century were against socialist, Marxist, and communist forces and their attempts to overthrow our capitalist system of economics.  We have gone to war, for instance, to prevent Korea from being overrun by communism.  We did the same in Vietnam.  What’s left of the Soviet Union, which Vladimir Putin is trying to unite Ukraine back under the home country from its fall from communist power, is at the heart of the modern conflict.  China is a communist nation that is exporting communism all around the world, including providing financial backing for many of the ICE protests.  The conflicts in Central America have been over the spread of communism.  Communism took over and ruined Cuba, creating a lot of trouble for the United States.  And the military action of choice by these communist groups has been to change their tactics from open aggression to legal challenges.  For instance, rather than go to war again with the United States in Korea recently, the communists just penetrated society to the point where they rigged elections so they could steal the government as they just did in South Korea, and took over the country without firing a shot.  They have tried to do the same thing in America.  The Joe Biden presidency was a good example of that very intention.  A presidency was stolen and given to a communist supporter, which Joe Biden was.  They did the same thing in Brazil with Bolsonaro.  They used election fraud to remove him from office, then lawfare to strangle him in court.  This is how the communists, who are the enemies of humanity, work in the world.  They have changed their approach, and in America, they attempt to conceal themselves behind free speech, expecting not to be identified as hostile agents of the American way of life.  And when they show up to a protest wearing socialist membership t-shirts, they are making it easy to identify who they are and what needs to be done to them.

There has been considerable debate about the role of communism in a free society.  For a long time, people on the left assumed they had an equal right to express their opinions in that free society.  But Democrats, socialists, and communists of Marxist thought are a political party that is hostile to American values.  When we discuss the political right and the political left, we are referring to support for Adam Smith’s economics on the right and Karl Marx’s on the left.  One is hostile to the other, and they can’t all coexist in the world, which is the moral of the story behind all the conflicts we have had up to this point and the blood that has been spilled, defining those parameters.  And that is what they are protesting with the immigration issues, open supporters of overthrowing America are trying to import communist ideas into the nation to change the voting standards of a free country, so that they can topple the nation with the pressure of the policies.  So, illegal immigration is an invasion of our country by hostile agents trying to hide their radicalism behind loopholes in the law, which think only countries can declare war on our nation, and that we can’t fight them if a nation hasn’t openly declared war.  But Mexico has come pretty close to it by supporting illegal immigration into America and all the violence and chaos it brings.  But to the protestors themselves, who were taught in our public education system and colleges to become agents of Marxism, we have been too friendly and accommodating to them.  We should be openly hostile and even violent when they show up in our communities with t-shirts showing an affiliation with socialism, communism, and Marxism.  And if they block our road with their communist bodies uttering Marxist values and expect to stop our progress from point A to point B, we should run them over and not look back for a second at their broken bodies and hippie rantings.  It is more valuable to acquire our gallon of milk from the store than to consider for a moment the fractured lives of those hostile protestors and their ill intent toward our great nation.  Their destruction would be an improvement to the quality of our country, and we should defend it accordingly.  We aren’t required to put up with communists in our society under the guise of free speech.  When we see them and they identify themselves as such, we should always be at war with the basic premise of their diabolical existence.

There Won’t Be A War with Iran: They can’t afford it

There is all this talk about war with Iran, and America getting sucked into a prolonged war that will further entangle us into a mess of foreign commitment.  And there are all these war hawks like Lindsey Graham who want to go to war and bomb Iran into destruction.  And then there are people like Tucker Carlson who want complete involvement in Israel’s business, at all.  But everyone is missing the point, and Trump gets it.  You have to know your leverage points, and just to burst everyone’s bubble, Iran has already lost any potential war.  Iran is another hostile country, much like Antifa or Black Lives Matter in America, that is propped up with foreign money to create a grand distraction in the world.  Iran is the number 1 sponsor of terrorism in the world.  They don’t call it terrorism; however, they instead call it “revolutionary activities,” using almost the same kind of logic as we saw from the No Kings riots in America.  Iran exists to fight capitalism behind the façade of radical Islamic Fundamentalism.  And they can’t be reasoned with.  There is nothing about them that exists to protect the indigenous rights of the Palestinian people, and their continued protest to fight and destroy the creation of Israel as a country in the post-World War II environment.  Remember when the Obama administration left behind 1.7 billion dollars on an airport runway to Iran?  Or when Joe Biden lifted sanctions against Iran that were there from Trump’s first term?  Iran is not a country; it’s an Occupy Wall Street endeavor by radical leftist lunatics to destabilize the world.  Here are the facts: Iran can’t win a war with the United States.  I can’t win a war against a turtle.  And the threat of calling their bluff will shatter them completely. 

$1.7 billion might sound like a lot of money, but ground troops cost significantly more than that for just a few weeks of war.  And with all those missiles that they have launched against Israel, those are very expensive.  Additionally, Iran has its entire power grid concentrated in a small area, which would be very easy to target and disrupt.  Iran has an essentially oil-based economy, but not much else.  You don’t see people rushing out to buy the latest Iranian television or a new pair of jeans.  Iran could be brought to its knees without America firing a single shot, by just forcing the price of oil too low to compete with by exporting American oil.  And that is the way Trump is going to destroy hostile markets like Venezuela and Iran, through economics.  There is no reason to engage in a military conflict.  Iran doesn’t have the money to fight a war, and their entire infrastructure could be destroyed easily.  And with all the missiles they have launched recently toward Israel, they are going to run out of rockets fast.  And where are they going to get more of them?  Who is going to supply Iran with more weapons while the world’s eyes are on them?  Typically, Iran manufactures missiles on assembly lines, but it has to import the technology that powers them, which comes from North Korea and China.  Who thinks that either country is going to supply Iran with anything while Trump is in office?  They want to appease Trump, rather than risk being on the wrong side of the negotiating table with him.  Iran is currently on its own, and it can’t last long.  The Revolutionaries who run the country are not very deep in number, and the people in general in Iran do not support the current regime, so they only hold onto power with the threat of violence.  And they’ll lose that with any fight against Israel.

The Army Parade came at the perfect time, because it showed the world what the riches of capitalism can produce in such a display in the very nice city of Washington, D.C.  It took off the table any thought of engagement in a ground war with America, and the rest of the world doesn’t have the money to keep up.  The wars we have been dealing with were largely creations by centralized banking, not countries fighting over borders and ideology.  Trump knows he can crush Iran economically.  They are already reeling from the short conflict with Israel.  And when Iran falls, that will put pressure on Russia to settle things with Ukraine, which is also propped up entirely by globalist money.  And China is in a delicate situation with its economy.  They are propped up by globalism, and now that people are onto the scam, they are in a preventive defense mode.  They can’t afford any sustained competition along economic lines.  They’d love to attack Taiwan and take all its resources.  They’d love to do the same in Japan.  However, they dare not do it, because they would be economically destroyed.  So they have to play nice.  There won’t be any war.  And while many of these countries have their militaries, they can also hold parades.  They have to work a lot harder to have those militaries than America does.  In any engagement, they will run out of gas and come up short on missiles really fast.  But America can produce weapons like candy.  And when it was put on display, as it was at the Army Parade, it was disheartening to those in the world who want to intimidate by puffing up their feathers, only for everyone to learn that it was just a skinny, weak bird in the middle.

Iran is going to fall, and they should.  They are evil.  And once they do, there won’t be any place left in the world for all these terrorist organizations to hide behind.  If you take out the number one sponsor of terrorism, a world with a lot less terrorism would be a good one.  And when you look around at the hostile places of the world, who are just as close to falling as Iran currently is, they can’t hang onto power unless people are scared of them.  China is at risk of losing Hong Kong, for instance.  If Iran falls apart, the rest of them will likely follow suit.  And Trump, or America, doesn’t have to do much of anything for it to happen.  We certainly don’t need to send troops into Israel.  I love Israel, and I think they deserve revenge for what happened at that music festival.  A lot of people were killed and tortured who didn’t deserve it, and what was done to them, with Iran backing the activity in the background, was terrible.  But forget about this idea of ground engagement.  Those are not the fights we are fighting anymore.  When Iran falls, the Ukraine War will likely end shortly thereafter, due to the resulting pressure.  And China will struggle to maintain its current economic strength because it needs American markets to sell its products to.  They are dependent on America for their power, which can be turned off quickly.  And ruthlessly.  Which is what Trump will do to Iran, and once that vulnerability is exposed, all the other dominoes in the world fall too.  Therefore, there will be no military engagement.  Iran has already lost, and I believe they are aware of it.  It’s just taking the media a while to figure it out, because they need the subject matter.  However, the war with Iran never even began.  And Israel will easily triumph over their enemies with the power of economics.  Not missiles.

Todd Minniear and the Liberty Township Trustees: Protecting a great area from bottom feeders and other social parasites

It was always a disaster in the planning to guide development to include apartment and attached single-family homes.  That was a ridiculous Agenda 21 sustainable living idea that does not stem from American needs, but rather from the United Nations, and it’s good to see that Todd Minniear, the great trustee of Liberty Township, is fighting back against this ridiculous trend.  Because it’s all about value and the quality of living, and even if it comes out sounding mean and not very equitable, those are not values that can build a good society.  You can’t put too many apartments into a community full of people who don’t own property and expect everything to go well.  The population density is one thing.  However, the kind of people who live in apartments is quite another matter.  When a township like Liberty puts together a comprehensive plan, as I have explained over the years, the kind of people who are hired to make those plans are trained in universities to make Agenda 21 and 2030 from the United Nations a priority, and within those constructs is the notion that the most sustainable living is to stack humans on top of each other and prevent them as much as possible from getting in their car and driving somewhere.  Because the goal is to lower the carbon footprint of people with all kinds of hippie thoughts about protecting the planet and taking away individual development in favor of collective surrender to the common good as defined by the parameters of communism, exported from Europe.  And it ends up in communities like Liberty through the comprehensive plans that their building planners implement.  It’s one of those things that often slips under the radar when elected trustees review their comprehensive development plans for approval, and the context of what’s in them isn’t well understood.  We tend to think that people who write comprehensive plans are smart, but what often happens is that they learn too late that they were trained to be radicalized liberals taught on a destructive, anti-American agenda.

Everyone wants to live in Liberty Township, and when the area Journal News newspaper reported what Todd Minniear and the other trustees had done, they picked up on the sentiment correctly by stating, “Liberty Twp. Is closing its borders to future developments that include apartments or attached single-family homes, as trustees approved changes in its 2020 comprehensive plan and future land use map – which guides development.”  Most of the time, trustees in their positions across the country think they are hiring good people with excellent college credentials when they bring in individuals to write their land-use plans.  And their lives have not prepared them for the shell game that comes with such land use planners.  But it’s an industry full of parasitic communists trained in their colleges to implement extreme liberal politics into everything their careers touch.  Remember, it’s not where people went to school, but the kind of garbage they learned there that’s so dangerous.  And in Liberty Twp’s case, the value comes from the type of property people can buy, and how it restricts many people without shared values, bringing them together unnaturally, which eventually lowers the area’s value.  The kind of people who end up living in apartments and attached single-family homes tend to be people who didn’t make very good decisions in life, and when you start stacking those kinds of people into dense property use, they vote that way at the ballot box and pretty soon you have all their bad decisions changing the politics of your community into something else, often destructive.  And not protecting property values because parasitic tendencies were allowed to permeate. 

Of course, the implication made by the Journal News is that Liberty Twp is moving toward exclusivity by closing its borders to outsiders, when the socialist trend is to make everything more equitable.  With Liberty Township being such a nice place to live, the goal of the trustees, as defined by radical leftist community planners who teach the values of Marxism in colleges, is to make valuable places to live more accessible to everyone.  Because everyone deserves to live somewhere nice.  And if you’ve looked around Liberty Township, you now see apartments going up everywhere.  And what goes into them are apartment-dwelling people who vote, and they vote with the kind of values that come with people who don’t have profound roots in property ownership.  I like the proposed type of living at the Liberty Center development, which combines mixed-use shopping and living, creating a big city environment that gives kids growing up in the area a reason not to move to New York City or Los Angeles to experience that kind of life in their post-college years.  However, the downside is that more apartments mean more voters, as opposed to the wealthy homeowner of a property worth more than $400,000 who wants to keep it that way.  All over the country, when you study why communities fail, it’s because they didn’t protect what made them valuable in the first place.  And once you start letting bottom feeders move into your area, you’ll run into them at gas stations and the grocery store, and they bring down a positive living experience everywhere they go.  And while that doesn’t sound fair or equitable, it’s the truth.  Values decline, whether they are property or social, when we fail to protect them. 

Making it too easy for people who are not very good or wise to live in your area will only bring trouble.  People who make poor decisions in their lives are likely to reflect that in their voting behavior when we invite them to join our communities and live in an apartment, just to be fair to them.  They bring with them trashy kids, destructive lifestyles, and disastrous extensions of their families who visit them in a condition of dereliction.  And attacking that premise of value is baked into the background of all Agenda 21 and 2030 land use plans.  When you speak to these kinds of people, DEI policies, specifically equity and inclusion, are their primary concerns.  And builders end up following those ridiculous concepts in their architectural plans, and before you know it, you have a mother of five with three different fathers of those kids, all of whom visit her, coming and going, living next to a property worth more than a million dollars.  And they are all shopping at Kroger together and regretting it.  And when it comes time to vote, they disregard the million-dollar property owner vote because there are more of them, and because of the terrible decisions they have made in life, they are now voting for more government services, as they are never going to own a million-dollar property of their own.  And soon thereafter, you have a community in decline as people with value pick up and move away, where they don’t have to be around losers in life in their leisure time.  Thankfully, there are people like Todd Minniear who are finally standing up to this kind of nonsense.  Yes, suppose Liberty Township wants to maintain its value. In that case, just as the United States is learning to do, we must hold people accountable for earning their place in the community by working hard and making good decisions that live up to the high standards of value that make communities great.  However, when you make good things available to everyone, whether through comprehensive land use plans that stack property density on top of each other mindlessly, or through more government services that cost taxpayers a lot of money, social decline is not far behind.  When that value isn’t protected, of course, a community will move into decline.  And once that happens, nobody is happy.  This is a good position for the Liberty Township Trustees, as they are protecting a great community from the erosion of outside influences, which are certainly not in the best interest of the future.

The Magnificant Army Parade: Smoking out the domestic enemies

I’m happy that my wife and I recently visited Washington, D.C., and saw all the key places along Constitution Avenue in front of the White House, where the great Army Parade took place on June 14th, 2025.  We had spent a lot of time in the precise location where the stage was set up for President Trump and others to view the celebration, so it was extra special for me, given the context of that visit.  It was a very patriotic event that we much needed, and it’s so good to see President Trump back in the White House.  This is the kind of thing many were unsure would ever happen again in America, especially after the 2020 election theft and the COVID-19 lockdowns.  It seemed at the time as if we would never see such celebrations in America again.  However, this one was the first of its kind, where Army sentiment was on full display with tanks and troops marching in full patriotic fanfare, which occurred very early in President Trump’s second term, and the world was watching.  And it couldn’t have come at a better time; the country certainly needed it.  With the world plunging toward war, with lots of hostile characters trying to create chaos in the background, whether it was the fights in Iran, the war in Ukraine, or China posturing to attack Taiwan, the many Marxist groups were gathering for No Kings marches all over the United States at the same time.  And without this epic Army parade, things would have looked pretty bleak.  However, it was so successful that it made it very clear who the world’s villains were, and they seemed rather foolish by comparison.  Something that would not have been so obvious if Trump had not thought of celebrating the 250th birthday of the creation of the Army before America was even born. 

For anybody to protest that parade was pretty foolish.  Trump has never sold himself as a king of any kind, so the desperate attempts to paint him as a tyrannical dictator only indicate just how much of a threat law and order are to the chaos of destruction that the political left intends for us all, which has been hidden carefully behind polite society.  However, when a majority of society views something like an Army parade and enjoys it under the common appreciation of our nation’s flag, radicals against it appear much worse than they typically do.  It’s hard to preach against something so positive, yet that was the position of the anti-American protestors who have been attacking ICE deportations, American support of Israel over the PLO, and now a resurrection of appreciation for military recruitment and career advancement.  The combined efforts of many hostile characters working in the background were aimed at eroding the idea of America and turning our country into a collective entity of the United Nations, thereby losing all sovereign control to foreign, centralized banking.  It was never more apparent just how bad the messaging is of these radical groups than by June of 2025, when they still haven’t figured out why Americans voted for President Trump again in the recent election.  The bottom line is that they don’t understand what makes people work, and believe that they are so stupid that they would just mindlessly follow the Marxists trying to stop America from existing.  Trump was never trying to position himself as a king; he was popularly elected to do a job.  And he is doing it very well. 

But imagine what the rest of the world must have thought.  Again, I frequently get the chance to travel and talk to people from all over the world, so I have a perspective that isn’t confined to what people are doing in my own backyard.  And the world isn’t a very good or safe place.  Most governments are lacking because they are centralized and driven by administrative controls.  So people have come to accept deficiencies in expectation due to this collectivist nature.  Most places in the world have some degree of socialism, communism, or overall Marxism at the core of their society.  That has been tried in America and can easily be found on most school boards, corporate boardrooms, finance institutions, the medical industry, and all labor unions.  However, people themselves have rejected those traits and have been hungry for an alternative, which the free market in America has been able to nurture, and to significant effect.  And the reminder of why that is was on full display with the Army Parade.  Tyrannical ideas can’t take hold in America because of the Second Amendment, and because we have an all volunteer military that keeps bad guys out, leaving some of the most hostile forces in the world to fund radical demonstrations like what was seen by the No Kings protests, primarily financed by Marxist groups and figureheads like the billionaire Neville Singham.  We usually talk about people like Alex and George Soros for that kind of thing, but in truth, there are many handfuls of these Marxist types who use their money to pay for their own sort of army, the disenchanted youth, to be their ground troops of destruction.  And the poor kids are too stupid to understand how they are being used as a disguised military overthrow of our government by Marxist protestors.  And in the background, constantly, they have hidden themselves, because there weren’t better things happening in the world that exposed them.  This Army Parade was so positive and impressive that it made what they had been doing look insignificant by comparison, and the contrast is stark.

As a result, people are finding that they like the world President Trump is presenting, much better than the stringy-haired hippies of public education advocating for Marxism.  People like those in the military wanted to celebrate it with the President in such positive fanfare.  It was such a nice event.  As I mentioned, I thoroughly enjoyed my recent trip to Washington, D.C., with my wife.  It was great to have Trump back in the White House.  But it was even better to take that area between the Washington Monument and the White House and have a military parade to show the world the miracles of capitalism, and a solid, well-funded Army with a deep, sustainable history, controlled by popular elections under self-rule.  Quite the opposite message from what the protests were trying to sell, that came out flat and jaded.  Unlike in the past, when people would give their opinions the time of day.  There is now a lot of history that people are ashamed of, so the communist playbook of protest and discontent isn’t registering.  However, a military parade in front of the White House was something the world could rally behind, demonstrating that Trump understands all too well how to project America’s values to the world in ways that no modern-day consultants could comprehend.  That display was pure Trump, and understanding the market value of freedom, and how it helps keep the world in check.  And it dwarfed all the rallies cheered on by the Marxist and socialist groups in cities all over America.  The Army parade dominated the news cycle and deflated the Marxist balloon, just in time, too.  And I think it started a new tradition, which is about time.  The first months of Trump’s second term have been great.  But I think we are just seeing the beginning of many great things to follow.

Putting Out the Fires of War: No, there won’t be a World War III

You have to see the big picture here and understand the motivations that are being exposed, as we speak.  I was surprised that Benjamin Netanyahu was so bullish on attacking Iran’s nuclear capability and taking out the heads of the Iranian revolutionary forces.  In the chess game of war, it’s a pretty bold one, and when you add to that the antics of Ukraine and Russia, and China moving in on Taiwan, there is a lot of talk about World War III.  And about the United States getting dragged into it.  But lurking in the background of all this chaos are the forces of globalism, who are starting these fires to cover up their many crimes.  And they are looking for a diversion.  All these characters didn’t just get these warlike ideas on their own as single-minded personalities.  Numerous factors are at play in the background, and many global crimes are being brought to light for consideration.  So the hope here is that wars, even if it means World War III and mass casualties everywhere, can’t be avoided. Suppose the bad guys out there can start a war and destroy the world to cover their many, vast crimes.  You can bet that they will do it in a New York minute.  We are dealing with a vast evil that is as malicious as the human imagination could consider.  And it has always hidden itself through death and violence.  So, while there is a lot of concern about America getting pulled into a war, remember, this is just another Covid story, an attempt to derail the news cycle and hide the perpetrators of evil who move the mouths of the characters involved.  And hope that nobody notices.  But of course we do see, and are onto the truth of the matter.

In Israel’s case, I don’t feel that enough revenge has been put in place for the malicious attack that occurred against Israel at that music festival.  The way they were attacked was reprehensible, and to say that America can’t get dragged into a Holy War is ridiculously insufficient.  Globalism is a layered topic in this case because Israel was a creation of globalism, of the forces being realigned after World War II.  There are forces of the western world who want to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem and the ancient fight with the residents of the Land of Canaan, and of the Mesopotamian Valley feel they are fulfilling a prophesy the same as Jesus riding a donkey into the ancient city as the Son of God to be the King of Kings to a chosen people.   There is no peace in this process because there are more than terrestrial forces at play, blowing on the winds of war that have been present for many tens of thousands of years, if not millions.  Not to become distracted here, but you have to understand the level of evil in the Middle East that we are discussing, which has been chronicled in literature as long as humans have been able to record their observations and thoughts.  So with all that in mind, I love Israel, I love the Jewish people, and I think that it’s essential to understand why that part of the world was chosen to be a Promised Land.  There is no way to appease the Iranians and their history against the Jewish people, going back to the beginning.  To have peace with them, they will have to be destroyed.  And they showed those fangs when they attacked all those kids at that music festival, and raped all those poor girls, and tortured those family members.  We can’t tolerate that kind of evil in a world of mass communication, where people have a responsibility to be aware of these things.  We can’t turn away from evil, and I tend to think that the Jewish people should rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem for the third time. 

However, we are also discussing the majority of the known world being in a perilous circumstance, from Russia to China, which threatens to disrupt chip manufacturing and, in turn, impact the American economy.  Trump has done a great job getting on the phone with Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, and maintaining a relationship with them that would make waging war difficult in their minds with free justification.  The winds of war were being blown on by globalist forces trying to hide their crimes as Trump took away the embers with diffusing telephone calls that only a top executive would understand how to do.  Thank goodness Trump is in the White House because I don’t see World War III happening in the way that most people fear it will, with a ground war and mass casualties all over the earth.  As I look at it, the world can’t afford to be at war.  The world is broke, and they can’t maintain war as it is traditionally viewed.  All they can afford to do is sponsor various elements of terrorism.  Russia is broke.  China is only propped up with globalist money, trying to hide itself behind a wall of communism.  And in Iran, they hide Marxism behind Islamic Fundamentalism, but the truth is that they are the top sponsor in the world of terrorism.  Or as they define it, “revolutionary support.”  When they talk about revolution, they are talking about the fight of indigenous people to push out the Western world from their ancient practices that go back to the time of the Tower of Babel.  And they will never stop.  But they have also been propped up by globalism, remember all the cases of money that Obama left on runways during his administration to sponsor the terrorism of that region against the Western World.  Against the Christianized West. 

However, none of those countries can afford to go to war; what we are seeing on the news are the attempted fires of those forces hiding within the policy of those places, trying to throw everyone off the scent.  But without globalist money, Iran can’t maintain its regime.  The Ukraine War falls apart.  And China can’t do anything as they are completely attached to the greedy hands of the World Economic Forum as their government of choice for corporate manipulation.  And America doesn’t need to get pulled into any war.  It’s perfectly fine to shoot down the missiles going into Israel and to run Iran dry.  And let the people rise and overthrow the Revolutionary forces there in Iran, and install a new government.  America doesn’t need to lift a finger, only to support the fight against evil wherever it shows itself.  However, a ground war is not in the cards, as it’s not necessary.  Trump has already discharged the steam, leaving the globalist forces exposed and desperate.  And we have to realize that’s what is going on.  The world that doesn’t want peace is losing its hiding places, and they know that America is going to outpace globalism and make them irrelevant.  All the talk show pundits are getting the war talk wrong because they don’t want to admit the economics of the situation.  There isn’t money for the kind of war they fear, due to the way globalism has entangled so many forces.  They can’t afford such a fight. Instead, the bad guys have been stripped naked, and their marionettes have found themselves talking peacefully to Trump, putting out the fires faster than they can be started.  Leaving them all exposed without any hiding places, in full view of a public waking up massively, perhaps for the first time, in the history of this world.

Being Replaced by AI: If you have time to play on the internet all day, you are in a job that can easily be replaced by new technology

Let’s take the concerns about AI replacing jobs seriously for a minute.  Here’s a good measure that I use to determine the value of a job.  If you have time to play on the internet and are ordering your lunch at 9 AM, you are probably working a job that AI could replace. We don’t create jobs just for people to have.  You need to be doing something with that job.  So, if you have a lot of time to do other things while you’re at your job.  Or you are doing a job that people think can be done from home while you are in your pajamas, your job can be done by AI. I have explained that I don’t worry about AI taking away jobs from people. Instead, I think AI will expand our economy where it’s applied and make humans more efficient.  Our economy will grow proportionally.  And when we are talking about GDP growth of more than 3%, human jobs just aren’t going to get you there.  There are not enough people, and there are not enough births.  There aren’t enough people in the world to fill all the jobs that we currently have.  Measuring a country’s success in job creation is a thing of the past and has been for quite some time.  I understand the anxiety, but really, and you know who you are, if you aren’t very busy at your job, then you are doing a job that AI can replace, one that doesn’t show up late or call off.  Or bring in a doctor’s note looking for an excused absence.  AI works all night and doesn’t require overtime.  It doesn’t get out of focus on the topics being worked on.  It simply does work, and that is essentially what economic value is measured by: the amount of work required to drive economic activity. 

It is baffling to hear what people who are supposed to be smart think would happen with the new administrative state’s view of the world.  Even this past week, I have heard some ridiculous comments from people who are supposed to be experts on labor practices.  The notion that the world should stop because so-and-so has called off is a preposterous idea.  And the general idea is that work is something that should be regarded as valuable.  I continue to hear what I’ve listened to all my life about Mondays, when people say stupid things like, “can’t wait to Friday.”  Or, “TGIF,” associating sadness with Monday mornings, where people have to return from time off and report to jobs that they hate.  And they rebel against those jobs with frequent call-offs and expect their job to be there for them once they’ve done all their leisure activities, as if we are supposed to build our lives around being off work.  Hey, AI never complains.  It does work, and a lot of it, and is, in general, far better than humans doing those same jobs.  It is much more reliable.  So, are we supposed to avoid using AI and insist on using a human being who is much less efficient at a task, to preserve the feelings of some lazy slug who is on their third marriage and has kids by all different spouses, who call off work every time the sun is out?  Because that’s the reality of the labor market.  However, it’s not just the typical slugs we’re talking about.  It’s just as common for white-collar jobs.  And you can see it while visiting any city.

It is astonishing to visit places like Washington, D.C., where traffic is heavy from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m.  Everyone is going to work, and the parking garages fill up fast.  But by noon, those parking garages start to open up because people are not working full 8-hour days.  They are going home after just a few hours in the office, and in many cases, they are not working even five days a week.  We saw this mentality clearly during COVID, where medical professionals insisting on government-imposed lockdowns had no connection to the amount of work that needed to be done globally.  Labor being a measure of productivity, most of the COVID planners thought that the world could all stay home and only communicate with each other via Teams meetings.  And we’re talking about people we think of as brilliant.  They believed that the way to get to a zero-emission world was for all humans to stay home and not drive anywhere.  If you have ever attended one of these climate conferences, such as those held in Rio or Davos, you will hear these same types of people microplanning mass society with the belief that humans could all stay home and visit parks built in their backyards, rather than traveling across the nation to visit a place like Yellowstone.  The same people who are now complaining that AI is going to take away human jobs are the same people who have tried to keep human beings from leaving their houses. I say that, knowing a great deal about the Agenda 21 goals of sustainability and how those misguided ideas infiltrated community planning. 

I have a lot of political friends who have to deal with Agenda 21 fantasies straight from the messed-up minds of the United Nations.  These kids learn a variety of skills in school, then they get hired into a township planning office, where they bring with them designs to build parks, roundabouts, and bike paths.  I live in an area where all these things have happened in abundance, and I look at them in wonder.  Why should people have so much free time to spend in all these parks and have the time to ride a bike on a bike path?  Where do the people who frequently visit there work?  Even with online gaming, many kids are playing those games 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, when they should be learning skills at the local McDonald’s drive-thru.  However, we have many people who have been running our society, teaching it all the wrong things about work.  So if you have time to walk on a bike path all the time, or sit around in a park looking at nature.  Or, you order lunch three hours early, and you have time to play on the internet all day at a white-collar job. You are working in a job that could and should be replaced by AI, which can do it better because it has no time for leisure.  When traveling through Europe, it’s always a source of amusement to observe their work ethic, which is characterized by very few hours per week, excessively long vacations, and an abundance of them.  When dealing with a large company these days, they often adopt a European view of work, which can be devastating to productivity.  I’d rather not waste my time trying to get someone to come to work and convince them to be productive while they’re there.  I’d rather replace their job with AI so that the things that need to be done can get done.  We don’t create jobs for people’s convenience.  We do it because we need work done, and people should work hard to do it, rather than complaining about it.  And we must admit to ourselves that most of the opinions people have had about work were incorrect.  And they led our society down the wrong path, introducing all the bad ideas about it.  To correct that behavior while expanding the economy, AI is a valuable asset, and I find it very useful because it is always available and never complains.  There are many things that I do that AI could never replace.  So I don’t look over my back at it, worried it will replace my value. Instead, I see it as helpful because it allows me to do the kinds of things that I’m good at, and to do more of them.  Rather than waste time on stupid stuff.  But if you are looking over your shoulder at AI replacing you.  Then that’s probably because you aren’t doing anything important enough to be replaced so easily.  And that is your problem.

Why The World Needs Tesla Semis: There is just too much regulation in the trucking industry

It was unfortunate that Elon Musk went sideways with President Trump, because there are enough problems in the world without something like a minor scuffle to derail what are otherwise fantastic opportunities.  Inflation is down, as predicted, and the economy is expected to boom.  And a lot of the debt we are currently incurring will easily be paid off with growth, if you can keep foreign and domestic terrorists from shutting the world down again with another COVID-type bioweapon.  The relationship Elon Musk has had with the White House has been positive so far in 2025, and there are many people who would like to see that optimism end.  And because of Elon Musk’s embrace of the MAGA movement and the great work he did with DOGE, I have been planning to get a Cybertruck.  I think it’s the best vehicle in the world being made right now.  I don’t mind that it’s electric.  I like traditional fossil fuel vehicles, but the power that these electric engines produce is an excellent example of fantastic engineering, so I am very interested in all Tesla products.  And I want them to continue to grow in market share.  But when Elon Musk got upset and supported an impeachment of President Trump, I dropped those plans for a Cybertruck faster than a New York second.  If Musk isn’t supporting MAGA, I’m not supporting Musk.  I might like him.  I might cheer him on as an innovator.  But I’m also not going to go out of my way to buy a Tesla if I can’t believe in the creator himself.  I only looked at Tesla vehicles because of Musk’s embrace of President Trump.  So we’ll see if any reconciliation lasts, or if it’s just a matter of personal survival.  Always judge people not by what they say, but by what they do.

But speaking of Elon Musk, self-driving vehicles, especially the Tesla semi trucks, and MAGA, there is a lot of fear that the self-driving aspect of these modern vehicles is just another way to steal jobs away from Americans.  But I don’t see it that way at all.  I’ve pointed out before that electric semi-trucks don’t have the range to replace full-time, diesel over-the-road trucks.  The concern is that self-driving trucks will replace the jobs of professional truck drivers.  However, I believe it will only benefit them, as the transportation industry is overly regulated. Therefore, when asked, “Why the Tesla semi?” the answer is a solution to overregulation that makes being a truck driver a challenging occupation. And that if you could change the nature of the over-road part of it, then we might find more drivers who would want to enter that field.  The problem with shipping products from the West Coast to the East, for instance, is that drivers are forced to be on the road too long.   They have to stop every 11 hours within a 14-hour on-duty window after 10 consecutive hours off, and all of this has to be recorded in a logbook. It’s just a pain in the neck for the driver.  It forces them to be on the road longer and away from their families needlessly.  The regulators will say that it prevents accidents from driver fatigue.  I know a lot of truck drivers, I’ve dealt with thousands of them over the years and for them there is nothing worse than driving all across the country with all the regulations involved only to get to their destination and have to sit in the parking lot waiting for a manufacturing plant to open, to unload them, further wasting their time.  Transportation times across the country are ridiculously long due to excessive regulations and a lackadaisical approach to labor hours in manufacturing these days. 

Where the Tesla semi trucks come in is that they can drive automatically across the boring states, such as Arizona, New Mexico, Nebraska, Iowa, Indiana, and drop their loads off at designated drop lots outside major cities.  And from there, a live driver can get up and work an 8-hour day picking up that trailer and taking it the rest of the way to the destination.  I think it would create more truck driving jobs to use the self-driving trucks to haul loads over the vast distances where there isn’t much traffic.  Self-driving trucks could operate outside of that 11-hour window, significantly reducing delivery times and making the live driver’s time much more productive.  However, to impose all those restrictions on a live driver and force them to stay on the road for over a week due to regulatory burdens is unreasonable.  It is no wonder, then, that there is a shortage of drivers.  It’s fun to be on the road for short spurts, but day after day, year after year, it wears out families and makes life challenging.  We should be making the profession easier, not harder.  The Tesla semi would work well with a drop lot system, which would make more commerce available by removing the capacity ceiling.  With capacity being determined by the regulatory burdens.  The safest thing to do to a truck driver is to keep them from driving.  However, we want drivers to drive more and haul more product from one place to another, and that limit should not be confined to human driving hours. 

One of the most attractive aspects of Tesla vehicles to me is that they are self-driving.  I enjoy driving cars probably more than most people.  But I can think of a million things to do with my time than driving when I am just trying to get from one place to another.  And I could use that extra half hour in those drives around town to do other things if the car is driving itself.  I could improve my efficiency significantly if the car drove itself.  And I see that being the significant benefit to the Tesla line of products.  They enhance time management, which will undoubtedly benefit the trucking industry.  I always feel sorry for truck drivers at rest stops, forced to wait out their 11-hour driving window when they are still 2,000 miles from home, heading in the opposite direction.  If I were them, I’d want to drive for 16 hours straight and cut down my time on the road, so I could either spend more time with my family or have the opportunity to make more money with additional routes. However, as things stand, a significant amount of trucking capacity remains underutilized due to drivers being constrained by excessive regulation.  The Tesla Semi would help make those long routes much more manageable, making it more achievable to give drivers a regular 8-hour workday and the ability to get home to their families each night.  And to let the Tesla Semi handle the long over-the-road hauls, driving way past the 11-hour maximum.  I see an expansion of the trucking industry, making it more attractive for human drivers to become truck drivers, as the automated Tesla semis could handle the heavy lifting that is currently discouraging market entry.  And that part of making America Great Again is in making truck driving great, maybe for the first time.  Tesla’s innovation in self-driving vehicles can give human beings a great gift, greatly expanding economic opportunities in the future.  And that has more value than money, most of the time.

Rich Hoffman Derangement Syndrome: Solving problems people don’t want solved

This has arisen recently due to the fallout between Elon Musk and President Trump, during which he discussed Trump Derangement Syndrome.  However, I understand why people dislike President Trump.  And here’s the deal: it’s not his job to change the opinion of those who hate him.  I know that hate all too well because it’s a personality thing.  There are a lot of people who hate me; they have Rich Hoffman Derangement Syndrome for sure.  And I know why people have it.  So I get Trump, and I understand why Elon Musk self-sabotaged his relationship with the President.  I see it all the time, every single day.  And there isn’t anything anybody can do to change that status.  People are going to feel what they are going to feel, and that’s just the way it works.  In Trump’s case, there are many people, including Elon Musk, who fall out of favor with the President due to the factors that contribute to the development of Trump Derangement Syndrome.  And the burden for change is on the people who hate, knowing that people like Trump set a bar too high for weak people to live up to, and they hate the person who sets that high bar because they are too lazy to live up to it.  That is the start of the hatred, but of course, it runs deeper than that.  But for some dumb reason, people have been taught that society owes them some unearned merit, to make them feel less bad about themselves, and when people don’t give them that, they grow to hate the targets of their anxiety.  And that relationship often descends into hatred.  One of the reasons President Trump has been as successful as he has in life is that he developed the ability to not care about changing his status against him, but to embrace it and live with it.  And once that happens, a certain freedom is experienced which allows for exemplary leadership and personal virtue. 

The Rich Hoffman Derangement Syndrome, which is a very real thing, is completely unprovoked by me.  I am about as friendly to people as anybody could be.  Yet I have a list of people who hate me for a reason.  And I understand it all too well, and I can therefore see it in other people with the same ease, such as in President Trump.  I don’t go out of my way to harm people at all, yet there is no shortage of people every day, at a different level than President Trump, of course, who lose their minds just by hearing my name.  And to maintain your level of happiness, you have to develop the ability not to care what people think of you.  President Trump has certainly created that over the years, which is why he can be such a good President.  But the same could be said of the head of any company or a family.  If someone had to pinpoint the most essential ingredient in any successful enterprise, I would say that it resides in Trump Derangement Syndrome, and how he deals with that derangement as a person.  Most human beings have an innate desire to be liked.  So they find themselves going out of their way to appease those around them, which gives people who don’t deserve it unearned merit, more power than they deserve to have, because they get to decide whether or not they like you.  And if you want to be liked, then you give people who don’t deserve that power, power over you, because you want something from them. 

It’s a psychological problem from people who have significant, destructive personality traits that they desire to hide from the world through this little game of popularity.  One thing that people, for the most part, do is introduce problems into the world so they can hide their insecurities behind them.  It’s a deep psychological problem that most people have in their lives to some extent.  So, when you bring someone into their life who likes to solve problems, and they solve those problems easily, of course, for those with the problems, that’s the worst thing in the world.  Because they want to hide behind problems with no prospect of ever being solved, those types of people dislike individuals who solve problems, as they want the problems to persist so they can conceal deeper issues within themselves that they seek to hide from the world.  That is why there is, and always will be, Rich Hoffman Derangement Syndrome.  Solving problems comes very naturally to me, and I do it everywhere I go.  I see through people to who they are, and when I see problems, I solve them.  And people hate me for it.  And since I don’t give them unearned merit just for breathing, as they have been taught, society should not be structured that way. As a result, they have no barrier to reality to insulate themselves from the truth. So they hate me.  And they hate anybody who shows an inclination to solve their problem because they want the problems to exist so they can hide behind them.  We’re talking about the kind of people who create problems in the world so they can hide their insecurities behind them, protecting themselves from needed reforms, and putting pressure on them to be good people.  To avoid that fate, they create problems as a barrier to the pressures of judgment.

So if you are a problem solver who sees easily through these smokescreens of issues, you will be hated.  Just as a child wants to hide under the covers to avoid the monsters that they think are in their closet, they will hate the person who rips away the covers and forces them to see what is hidden in their room.  And when you show them that there is no monster, they will not be happy, but sad, because they liked to hide under the covers, as it simulated a primal desire they have to be back in the womb of their mother, all cozy and warm, and cared for.  Because life is tough, and they aren’t adamant, or smart, and they fear most of all the world knowing that about them.  And with me, I see everything, I know everything, I can read a person just walking down the sidewalk and tell you just about everything you need to know about them.  Solving problems comes naturally to me.  And when I do, some people want the issues to remain, for their own needs of concealment.  And over time, if you want to be successful with such a talent, you learn not to care what other people think.  Because you don’t give those people the unearned merit to leverage friendship for compliance, people who don’t deserve it don’t get to use their control over relationships to keep problems intact as an extortion strategy.  And when that doesn’t work, as seen with Elon Musk maintaining a relationship with President Trump to gain leverage over a NASA administrator, or some EV mandate in the new Big Beautiful Bill, you find out real fast who your real friends are and what they want out of a relationship with you.  And when you couldn’t care less what they think, of course, they will develop a hatred for you and will suffer from a Derangement Syndrome.  And there is nothing you can do to help them.  I have certainly learned not to get pulled into other people’s problems.  But to solve them, regardless of their feelings about it.  And when they learn they can’t use friendship to retain their problems.  Of course, they will hate you for it, so if you want to be a successful person, you need to solve problems.  You have to learn not to care when people develop a hatred for you. Instead, you learn to accept and even embrace that hatred.  There is nothing I can do about Rich Hoffman Derangement Syndrome.  Except learn not to solve the problems people want to hide behind.  And we all know that’s not going to happen.

Treason and Sedition Carry With Them the Death Penalty: And that is clearly what is happening in the riots against ICE Agents

This isn’t hard, guys.  Anybody who funds the purposeful destruction of our country is committing treason, and advocating for the destruction of our country is sedition.  People can and should be executed for such an offense.  We’re not talking about a free speech argument in relation to what is happening in Los Angeles and other cities around America.  For legal definitions, treason is the crime of betraying one’s country, typically involving acts such as waging war against it or aiding its enemies.  In the U.S., it’s defined in Article III, Section 3 of the Constitution as levying war against the U.S., adhering to its enemies, or giving them aid and comfort, requiring two witnesses to the same overt act or a confession in open court for conviction.  For anybody hiring protestors to block traffic and fight against the police, National Guard, or ICE Agents, all employees of the federal government who report to our elected representation in the White House, which defines the American government, are committing acts of treason.  Sedition is conduct or speech inciting rebellion or resistance against a government’s authority, often just short of treason.  It typically involves actions or words that promote disorder or overthrow lawful authority, such as organizing or encouraging riots against the state, as seen in Los Angeles.  Whoever writes a check advocating for the riots of Los Angeles could be prosecuted, and even executed with the death penalty, for their contributions.  And it would be perfectly fine to apply that standard to hundreds, if not thousands, of people who have worked to organize these riots.  The only thing that is a little ambiguous in these cases is how an enemy is defined.  We traditionally look at enemies as foreign governments.  However, to avoid the wrath of the United States and its superior firepower, enemies have disguised their true intentions behind political movements, such as socialism, communism, and Marxism, to conceal their true nature, hoping to shield their actions under the First Amendment’s Free Speech clause.  

Treason, as defined under 18 U.S.C. § 2381, carries the punishment of death, or imprisonment for not less than five years, and a fine of not less than $10,000.  And a convicted person is incapable of holding any office under the United States.  Sedition is addressed under 18 U.S.C. § 2384.  If convicted, a person faces up to 20 years in prison, a fine, or both.  More than enough reports are tying the treasonous and seditions acts of the mob planners to communist China, a known and declared enemy to the United States of America, so that pretty much sums it up.  The riots against ICE agents are not free speech protests, and all the politicians who have been cheering them on, like Maxine Waters, could easily be charged and removed from office for their actions.  This is not ambiguous; it’s clearly stated and aligns with border policy.  There is no room for alternative opinions on the matter.  Any contrary belief system is part of this open border movement that hides their criminal acts behind what is generally believed to be a right to protest and petition a government.  The only reason they think this behavior can be hidden is due to the lack of intelligence or conviction that people now possess, as our education systems have helped facilitate such watered-down opinions.  And this is the same mode of operation that we have seen recently in Paris.  Foreign immigrants and their supporters carrying signs of Marxism, swinging around foreign flags, and burning the flag of their domestic country in protest are purposely seeking to end any border distinction around the world.  And that strategy is treasonous.  And suppose the influence comes from outside the country of origin. In that case, they and their partners are behaving in a seditious manner and can be prosecuted as perpetrators of war against the host country. 

When someone says that there is no evidence, or that there is no proof that so and so has ever been charged with a crime of treason or sedition, what they are saying is that the people who collect evidence didn’t collect it.  And that the proof is everywhere, but law enforcement was afraid to apply it.  Or that a person hasn’t been charged, because the law enforcement was too lazy to file a charge for the crime.  And they would do that for many reasons.  We have learned that through the Bar Associations, sentiments in favor of social justice are often influenced by Marxist ideas, and that we have placed too much trust in lawyers who share these views.  It’s fair to say that all collectivist-based associations, even homeowner associations these days, are filled with Marxist propaganda so that the value judgment against overthrowing a country has been watered down to the point where they are paralyzed in social judgments, which is in and of itself seditious behavior against a host country.  The assumption is that we are all now global citizens and that the borders of a nation are no longer relevant.  Therefore, attempting to have the courts punish treason and sedition is pointless, so anyone trying to protect their career would be reluctant to present such evidence, fearing they would lose in court and fall out of favor in the promotion loops controlled by those same individuals.  Evidence is never brought forward, charges are never filed, because prosecutors do not think that judges will rule in their favor.  And we have seen why they fear this, because many judges are openly trying to use the law to stop the Trump administration, as they see it, from being the established representative of the American people. 

So, a lack of will, or to accept that many of our institutions have been poisoned with Marxism and elements hostile to the American way of life, does not change the definition of treason and sedition.  What has been happening in the L.A. riots is both.  Any person who raises a fist to sworn officers of our government is openly declaring war against the state and can, and should be, charged as such.  Call it fascism.  Call it tyranny.  Call it whatever you want.  But what it is is treason and sedition.  We elect our representatives through honest elections, who then make up the state.  So we are the “state.”  And the best protest against a government is to work to elect new people into office.  However, overthrowing the system itself is a death penalty kind of crime.  This is not the same as the January 6th prisoners when Biden was inserted into the government.  Because that government was put into power through election fraud, and in that case, the established government was overthrown by the same methods as the riots in L.A. have been advanced.  And the money trail connects the guilty parties to the crimes.  These are not rights protected by the First Amendment.  These are hostile perpetrators of violence and anti-American activities.  And that if Trump’s administration puts to death all the organizers, as under the law they have a right and obligation to do, the American people will stand behind their elected representatives.  And they would even reward that political party with a greater majority in the upcoming midterms.  People do not want to see Marxist rioters in their streets causing harm, social disruption, and inconvenience.  They do not want to see their police harassed or ICE agents being prevented from carrying out their duties.  It’s time to get tough, real tough.  And stop playing games with people who want to destroy our country.  Especially those funding these riots.  Put them down, arrest them, charge them, and push for convictions for the death penalty.  And stop playing games.  The law is quite clear on this, and it’s time to enforce it the way it deserves.
