When George Lang Stood Between a Radical Protestor and Trump: The Left is out of gas

I know it’s scary, and many people are very worried about what they’ll learn after the 2024 election, which is essentially, do we have a government accountable to the people?  Or is it an out-of-control oppressive monstrosity that we’ll have to fight a revolution to bring back to our control?  People have seen too much of the communist machine that has been working in the background for a long time, and they doubt that an election will be enough to take back our country.  And I can understand why they think that way.  But consider a few things about this Democrat machine that is on a trend nobody can ignore.  And it’s growing against them year by year, even to the point where now there are Democrats who are jumping off the ship and voting for MAGA, like Elon Musk.  I’ve enjoyed that guy’s life for a long time, but could only go so far because he was such a left-leaning progressive.  Nowadays, he sees the light and sounds even more conservative than me.  But that comes from reality; when trying to build businesses, that nasty word reality tends to make itself known.  It has also been a challenge with Elon Musk and his attempts to run some of the most successful businesses in the world without partnerships with governments.  For a while, he played along to get along with the World Economic Forum, China, and the Obama and Biden administrations, all oppressive, centralized authority regimes.  But it became apparent in the 2020s that without an open government run by actual people and not Marxist philosophies that didn’t embraced capitalism, the possibility of going to space was just impossible.  Space travel requires massive amounts of capitalism.  Colonies on the moon and Mars would stall away under bureaucratic nonsense, and Musk has been living his own kind of Atlas Shrugged novel. his conversion has been an exciting reality I have covered extensively, more so than anybody else.  So, it hasn’t surprised me, it’s all part of a more significant trend. 

Seems like a long time ago.

I do not doubt that overt election fraud is planned for the 2024 election.  The political left cannot lose; they hold much of the government under their power and are the ones who ultimately count the votes and certify them.  But they played that game in 2020, too, and people are very well aware of it this time, and Democrats are being caught all over the place.  The discussion about Harris being on Saturday Night Live breaking FCC rules to try to slide her under the door with an extensive public relations skit at the last minute without giving Trump equal time caused a major uproar.  People are talking about the poor pet squirrel and raccoon that were confiscated during a home invasion in New York and euthanized for no real reason, and they are outraged.  People are seeing things that have always been there, but they are now allowing themselves to see the gross reality of it.  It’s not just Alex Jones and Hard Right conspiracy theorists anymore.  Since COVID-19 and the four terrible years of Biden, people have been waking up, and believe it or not, the Democrat/Marxist machine has been running out of gas and showing signs of weakness.  For the first time they actually fear being toppled from power.  There isn’t any amount of money in the world that can prop up something that just isn’t working anymore. One obvious thing with the Harris campaign was that their machine was broken and couldn’t win people over to give them a cover story of representative government.  If they do manage to capture the public, it won’t be under the illusion of self-rule.  It will be against the people like every other communist armpit of a country in the world.

So what’s different now compared to four years ago or even eight?  Well, remember all the Trump rallies in 2016 when there were paid provocateurs who would show up and try to make it look like people were against Trump when, in reality, it was quite the opposite.  I know this subject well because I watched it from a front-row seat.  I was part of a Trump rally in 2016 where I was in the VIP section with Senator Lang, and we were talking about what to do if someone broke loose from the audience to try to storm the stage with Trump on it, as had been happening often during that time.  I had a pretty good friend who was caught on film punching some radicals at a Trump rally that same year, and open fights and the harassment of Trump supporters with violence were commonplace.  There was no peace and lots of radicalism during Trump’s first term, where the mechanisms of the left were on full display.  The Rules for Radicals playbook was incredibly audacious and on full utilization.  And while George Lang and I stood there just a few feet from Trump, a provocateur rushed the stage right next to us, and security quickly put him down.  I thought of my friend who had punched some of those same types of leftists in the face, and he was in big legal trouble, so I did not touch the guy.  But let me tell you, George Lang did.  He blocked access to the stage with his body until security grabbed the guy and hauled his worthless body off.  And Trump looked at us for a second but didn’t even break his conversation but to tell the loser to go back to mommy.  I could tell lots of stories like that for people who don’t get to see that side of George, who represents Ohio much better than most people will ever know.

But here’s the thing: the left has been running out of gas now for over 8 years.  And you could see that this year when the fever started to finally break with that ridiculous lawfare case against Trump in Georgia just for questioning the election results that resulted in that now famous mug shot.  Then, a few attempted assassination attempts.  Trump never stopped, or even slowed down, and he has had more public rallies since then and notice what’s missing.  Yeah, it’s the provocateurs.  It’s the harassment of Trump supporters coming and going from rallies that used to be expected.  Now, none at all. The communists are running scared, and they have been exposed, and they don’t know what to do.  They can only rule through fear and control over the election process.  But the decentralized media in America, with forums like this one on one end and the Joe Rogan Experience on the other, and all kinds of stuff in between, they even put Steve Bannon in jail to keep the Warroom off the air during this period, and nothing has worked.  Nothing they have tried has succeeded, and in the process, they have lost support in significant ways, which Elon Musk is a fine example of.  If they lost him, they have also lost millions of others who aren’t so well seen.  So, as I know, everyone is worried about this 2024 election.  Remember, the power is clearly in your hands.  All you have to do is show up and vote to make this election too big to rig.  You don’t yet have to grab firearms to take back your country.  At this point, you can break the machine by overloading the support for Trump beyond their ability to cheat.  And if everyone does that, we can end this nightmare peacefully.  But the yearning of the people won’t be suppressed any longer.  People want what they do, and they are going to have it.  And this Marxist government of the Barack Obama types is a thing of the past, and they know it because they are out of gas.  Their tricks have not worked, and everything they have done has only caused them to lose more power, precisely where they are on election day.

Its That Time: Here is the Strategy

Don’t kid yourself; it is entirely possible that the reason that the political left wanted Kamala Harris was to suppress the voting results so that many Republicans would fall asleep thinking Trump was going to win.  Only to give themselves a better chance at picking up some of the close-down ballots, using Harris as a throwaway for the White House.  Any admissions at this point by radical Marxists who are concerned that Kamala is losing everywhere could, in truth, just be a calculated ruse meant to suppress the actual vote count to hide the massive fraud in 2020 by comparison so that Republican voters stay home and give easier congressional races over to Democrats so that they can win control of the House.  Kamala Harris, especially down the stretch, has been horrible.  She is essentially polling exactly where Biden was after the June debate, and there is no potential at this point of doing any better.  And I think she was a calculated disaster for all kinds of reasons.  But the thing to watch out for is that as Republicans and converted Democrats who are voting for Trump and MAGA, perhaps for the first time, not to be suckered by the fly-paper trap and assume Trump was going to win and to stay home on election day and leave any votes on the table.  Even if Trump blows away Kamala Harris, that’s not enough.  She has only one path to the White House if many crazy things fall her way, which isn’t likely.  But I think that is part of the game they are playing, and they’ve known it since before they pulled Biden off the ticket.  The key to this election cycle is gaining Republicans in the House and extending the current majority.  Democrats, however, are hoping to gain a small majority, which has been their game all along.

https://twitter.com/realalexjones/status/1852998346140426453?s=46

There are around 22 seats up for a flip in the House this year.  Of those, Republicans should gain a 6 to 7-member majority.  If things go well, it could be as high as 10.  If Republicans get cocky as everyone did in 2022 and assume there will be a big red wave that turns out to be just a little splash of water, then in that case, Democrats hope to gain control of Congress, ultimately putting them in charge of Washington, D.C., as a surprise for the election cycle because nobody has been talking about it.  In that case, they don’t care if Trump is president or not because Jamie Raskin has already said what they are all thinking: they have impeachment papers already prepared for Trump to throw him out of office.  And that is if they certify the election at all.  Republicans, we learned with Mike Pence and Mitch McConnell, did not have the guts not to approve the 2020 election as they should not have because of all the problems that were obvious at the time.  But Democrats have no such qualms.  They don’t care, and they play for blood.  So if they have a majority, they will resist with everything they have to certify Trump’s win.  That’s why you can’t assume that Kamala’s baffling stupidity isn’t part of the Democrat’s strategy into other offices.  Nobody puts someone as dumb as her on the front line unless she is a distraction meant for voter suppression.  Democrats might have hoped that her being a woman and a person of color might have been like a Hail Mary pass at the end of a desperate football game.  But experience says that what they are really after is voter suppression by making Republicans think they didn’t have to vote because Trump was easily going to win. 

The Senate also looks to be well in hand for Republicans.  As he said he would do all along, Bernie Moreno, down the stretch in Ohio, looks poised to beat the long-time Sherrod Brown, which is alarming for Democrats.  There are similar races, such as Keri Lake in Arizona, that are trending in the same direction, and all Democrats can hope to do is to get a few thousand Republicans to stay home and not vote so that the Democrats’ election fraud machine can keep tight races within the margin of cheating, and perhaps keep some of those Republican seats in the senate from holding a majority.  It’s the only play that Democrats have at this point.  They have been routinely rejected in just about every category over the last 8 years, and there are so many peelaways from Democrats who are now voting Republican that there is no other move for them but sheer desperation.  I would advise that nobody take anything for granted and that you vote like there is no tomorrow for Republicans, no matter how comfortable you think your person is leading.  As I say all the time, and now is one of those times, if Democrats can’t cheat, they can’t win.  It is my offering that Kamala Harris was constantly pushed out there to look stupid so that Republicans would get cocky and assume Trump would win easily, allowing Democrats to keep it close in the down-ballot races.  Nobody is put in a position as Kamala Harris has been, to be that stupid without it being on purpose. 

I hope this article reaches the eyes and ears of those who can still get on the horn and ensure voter engagement stays high.  I have some particular people in mind as I write this who do reach many people, and they read every day.  This is what we have all been working for over a long period.  This is the day.  Don’t let off the thrusters one bit.  I don’t have any compassion for Democrats.  Vote Republican.  Don’t worry about that local RINO you hate so much.  We’ll sort that out later through the marketplace of ideas.  They won’t last long in the world that is coming.  But for now, we need every last seat in every previous state that will support the MAGA agenda for Trump.  To do what we need to do as a country, we need as many MAGA supporters in as many positions as possible, from judges to mayors.  Keep voter engagement high, and don’t be suckered by Kamala’s horrendous campaign and sheer stupidity.  Nobody is that stupid; it is my offering that all of it was on purpose to instill voter suppression against Republicans by inspiring them to resist same-day voting trends that would allow Democrats to squeak by in a few places with low voter engagement.  I don’t think that will happen. Instead, I think it will be the other way around; voter engagement will be very high for Trump and all the down ballots, whereas Democrats will be very light because they won’t be able to cheat as they did in 2020.  But assume nothing until after the election.  Make it too big to rig so they can’t drag out the election for days after and allow chaos to change the results.  Make it evident that everything is known by 8 PM on election night.  And you can do that by voting so overwhelmingly that there won’t be any doubt in the coming days and months.  Don’t just talk about victory; make it happen by voting and doing so in a massive way, knowing what we’ve been through and understanding that we never want to see it again.   Take back your country one vote at a time.

The Brand Damage of the CIA: They will never recover from all their mistakes

The brand damage that the CIA has is their fault.  Based on their performance, we would all be better off without them.  They are supposed to keep America safe, but as it has turned out, they are the advocates for globalism and the destruction of American sovereignty.  And their dysfunction is because they don’t have proper civilian oversight.  Since they don’t get a lot of their funding through Congress, but rather through black budget enterprises like the drug trade, they don’t have any accountability.  And when we have tried to pin them down, they point to aliens or some other enterprise and declare that their secrecy is for our own national security.  But as Trump is promising to release the Kennedy assassination report, which Mike Pompeo encouraged him not to do during his first term, after the assassination attempt against Trump over the summer of 2024, the public needs to know.  I understand why Mike Pompeo didn’t want more bad press for the CIA, which he was in charge of at the time under Trump.  He did a good job and didn’t like the additional bad press.  But truthfully, nothing good can come out of the CIA at this point.  Their reputation is terrible, and there isn’t any evidence that they are acting in a way that is best for our country.  So, they have strayed way off the mark.  And I get Mike Pompeo as well, I have been able to ask him directly about what he thought of the 51 intelligence agents who declared that the Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.  He didn’t want some citizen journalist disparaging the department he was in charge of, so he just smiled politely and hoped that I would go away.  But it was an honest question with no good answer, and we both knew it.  There is no saving the CIA.

This all came to my mind because I was playing the new Call of Duty Black Ops Six video game, and this CIA plot is central to the game.  For context, Call of Duty is one of the most significant cultural entertainments that we have in the world these days.  Millions and millions of people play the game and they do so all hours of the day and night.  It’s a viral mainstream activity.  People over 50 may not understand that, but Call of Duty is one of those shared experiences for most adult households.  But in the campaign mode for this particular one is a rogue CIA agent who has gone off the grid to expose a big globalist scandal that involves the mainstream CIA as a contributor to plots against domestic sovereignty, which is pretty serious stuff.  In recent years, we have seen several movies go in the same direction, such as the Mission Impossible movies and even James Bond.  People have developed a genuine distrust of all these intelligence agencies over time to the point where they are no longer helpful.  Trump understands the game better than anybody in politics and how best to make America safe.  It’s not with a bunch of secretive agents of doom advocating a destructive political platform when, in reality, the best weapon in the world is economic.  If you control the money supply of any country or any people, then you control them much better than with direct CIA involvement toward border destruction.  What you end up with instead are radicals advocating for a borderless world and globalist intentions because they don’t have to report anything to Congress or answer to anybody for that matter. 

And they have been working against all the ways that the fictional game of Call of Duty portrays, not because conspiracy theorists have won the day with speculative talk, but because art has become a free expression of socially deep concerns.  It also shows up in mainstream entertainment, such as Call of Duty.  As I was playing this most recent one and thinking about Jack Posobiec’s new book Bulletproof, there is no statistical way that the killer, Thomas Crooks, acted alone.  No mathematical analysis could be done over that event where his acting alone could be the case.  Likely, as the evidence points out very well in that book that is very well researched, the FBI and CIA were behind the assassination attempt, just as they were with Kennedy and the coup against Nixon.  If you do a little digging, it’s easy to see that the CIA was created in 1947, right after World War II.  And since then, they have not made America a better place, but far worse.  There may have been well-intentioned people in it, like Mike Pompeo.  Trump may have wanted it to work.  But in truth, the CIA can’t be trusted, and at this point, they never will be.  They have such a horrible reputation that they will never be able to repair it.  Their very creation works against the concept of an American Constitution and needs to be reconsidered.  Adults over 50 who do not play Call of Duty may still want to think the CIA is salvageable, but when pop culture reveals how they feel about it, there is no going back.  Millions and millions of people have grown up not trusting the CIA because the government entity hasn’t done a very good job of justifying what they do and why.  And that is their fault.  People’s opinions of the CIA come from their experiences. 

When you read the Constitution and all the talk about standing armies and civilian oversight, you quickly realize that the CIA was created for all the wrong reasons and that its purpose in the world works against American sovereignty.   So, of course, when Trump came along to make America Great Again, the CIA has been working against him, even getting caught up in the many scandals of performing the same kind of coup on Trump that they do with other leaders around the world over time.  And we know that because of the 51 agents and the Russian dossier.  And the Kennedy assassination report.  From Watergate.  But what’s worse is the many times we suspect what they do is wrong but have not been able to prove it essentially because they lack proper civilian oversight and control of the evidence that might be used against them.  So, with a lack of evidence, they can make up any narrative they want, which they have done.  But it doesn’t change how people think about them, which comes out in art and entertainment, such as in this new Call of Duty game.  The CIA only had relevance to those around for its creation and had some sentimental hope that they were good people who wanted to do what was right.  But in reality, the CIA has proven to be a bunch of anti-American terrorists who work against the Constitution, seeking to subvert it at every opportunity, and they have been controlling our elections for many years, as they have been caught doing with Trump on several occasions.  And it’s not unfair for people to have an unfavorable opinion about them.  However, for accountability and making America great again, the CIA is one of those departments that should be on the chopping block during the next Trump term and reconfigured into something else.  The CIA was rotten from the beginning, and it has never been good.  If they are not accountable to voters, they shouldn’t exist.  And that’s all there is to it, especially now that their reputation has proven irretrievable.

Dealing with the Bullies of the Political Left: What happens after the election

Probably the biggest thing that everyone is concerned with after this November 5th election of President Trump is what will happen after.  Let’s face it: Democrats are the party of bullies and criminals, and to hide their intentions from the public, they resort most of the time to violence. And that is what people ultimately are afraid of.  So, they elected President Trump to return to the White House.  What happens then?  How do we deal with the radical left and the violence that is part of their interaction with the world?  Well, that just so happens to be my specialty.  As an adult now, I have the unique position of being in a lot of violent fights and coming out well in all of them.  That includes my childhood, which was unusually violent even though I grew up locally in Butler County, Ohio, and went to a good school.  I have always been uncompromising toward evil, so conflict was bound to happen.  For instance, when I was in the first grade, there was a really nasty bully that everyone was afraid of.  And he wanted to fight me right in the middle of class in front of everyone.  He was a big, scary kid who beat up everybody.  And I wasn’t very big at all at the time.  So I knew a fight with him would be tough.  So, as we started the fight, I poked him in the eye with my scissors, and it was a mess.  I got into a lot of trouble, of course.  But it was worth it because I gained something far more valuable: a reputation.  And that reputation would last the rest of my days in school, even up to the present.  When I fought with someone, the people involved often got badly hurt. 

When I was in the 6th grade, there were many fights between these, however, some of these show a pattern of behavior throughout my life; I got into a big fight with a kid much bigger than me right in the hallway in front of the principal’s office.  Most of the school was watching the fight because it was near the locker area right in front of the school in the morning while everyone was arriving.  So they formed a big circle and were watching, so I knew I had to make it good.   It wasn’t going well for the kid, so I needed to do something really dramatic to make sure I made a point. I pushed the kid through the principal’s office doors so hard that he fell into the doorway, and a few teacher assistants were residing there and being knocked away like bowling pins.  I followed it up by rushing him as he was getting up, colliding with him, which forced him backward even further and into the principal’s office where the guy was sitting at his desk.  I figured I was already in trouble, so I made it count.  I got into a lot of trouble, but again, my reputation bloomed as almost everyone in the school had witnessed or heard about it immediately.  It was worth the trouble I got into as a result.  Let me say that.  One thing you learn in these kinds of fights is that fewer people build up the courage to fight you because they know they are going to get hurt.  I was never a bully, but I had a policy not to take any crap from anybody over anything.  And that provoked people who like to give out crap, to try and make a trophy out of me, leaving many of them hurt in destructive ways and certainly damaged for life.  It’s gone forever once you lose a reputation, as with most things.

When I was a junior in high school, there was a group of bullies and a series of conflicts ensued through the winter that year with three of them, and it started over a girl.  I was always a sucker for helping girls when bullies pushed them around.  A trend that is as current as yesterday.  I still do this kind of thing a lot.  But then it was a matter of cafeteria warfare, and it got so bad that during one of these engagements, I punched a hard plastic plate that immediately cut my hand open in several places and exposed my bone and ligaments in front of the entire lunchroom.  Knowing I was severely hurt, I made the most of it and stayed calm even though my bones were sticking out of my hand.  I made a point to continue eating my food even with blood pouring out, taking my time to get to the nurse.  I had to be rushed to the hospital to have emergency plastic surgery because my hand was cut up badly.  It took a few months to heal, but the moment I could close my fist, I agreed to meet three of these guys at the Screaming Bridge, a local haunted spot in Liberty Township back then, for a fight.  And it was going to be a big one.  My friends were going to go and watch me fight these three guys who showed up to the fight location early to set booby traps they intended to push me into.  This was confirmed later in court when all this blew up into a significant headline, as the evidence of their intentions was nothing short of murderous. 

Fortunately for me, and this is why I can confirm Providence as a hidden hand that often shows up when you least expect it; I was with the police when one of those kids was shot and killed by a friend of mine after a car chase.   My reputation being what it was, I was not at the fight when it was supposed to start, and these kids I was supposed to meet told my friends that they had already thrown me down the hill into a series of booby traps they had set there, which frightened my friends because they couldn’t believe it.  So they gunned those kids down and chased them down the road, and a bullet hit one of the provocateurs, killing him.  Of course, the whole school knew I was supposed to fight those kids that night, and the story was all over the news.  So, I was the prime suspect.  But as it occurred, the police had apprehended me for another event that happened the weekend before, so they were questioning me at the exact moment on a Saturday night in late February 1985.  The point of all this is that, yes, I have a lot of experience dealing with bullies and violence.  And I enjoy these engagements.  I have had more guns pointed at me directly over the years than most police officers experience over their entire careers.  Most of the people I knew from back then didn’t make it very far into adulthood, and some had very violent deaths.  But I can say that I’ve seen enough of that behavior to know what will happen after this election. The Democrat bullies are out of gas and are beaten.  Do not be afraid of them.  They are defeated people, and their past has caught up with them.  And you don’t have to take any crap from them.  They are not scary or more powerful and can easily be beaten.  So don’t worry about what they will do after Trump wins the election.  They have only one play in the playbook and that is to bully people into submission.  But if you don’t submit, they don’t know what to do, and based on my experience, they don’t have what it takes to push people around, especially when they are losing as they are now politically.  There is only one path for them, and victory is not it.  And having the ability to bully people around, they have lost forever.  All you have to do is stand up to them.  God will take care of the rest. I’ve seen it all my life, and it happens like clockwork.  So don’t yield to the bullies from the radical left.  Stand up to them and expose them in ways they are unprepared to fight because they can’t.  Be like Joshua when he led the Israelites into Canaan.  God will take care of you if you fight in his name and do what’s right even when it seems scary and unwinnable.

‘The Price of Power’: Mitch McConnell was always a loser and thankfully he is leaving the Senate, finally

Mitch McConnell has announced that he will leave the Senate in November 2024.  He has worked against President Trump all this time and, as revealed in his new book The Price of Power, what he thought of the MAGA movement in general.  As I read all this news, I saw a campaign ad for a local issue that Republican Sherrif Jones is involved in with Democrat Kathy Wyenandt over Issue 12 because they think it looks cute to show bipartisan support for an issue for the greater good, and this is the kind of politics ultimately that Mitch McConnell was involved in during his long term in the Senate.  There is a fine line between cooperative partnerships with people who are not politically like you and being a grotesque sell-out.  When McConnell said in his new book that MAGA was entirely wrong for the Republican party, he has a different view of what that party is, and he is leaving before he has to deal with Trump as president once again.  Mitch McConnell, like many politicians who get into that business for a long time, is not driven by ideological purity but rather as part of their business.  And when money gets involved, intellectual parameters fly out the window.  In the case of McConnell, a large part of his income has been wrapped around the family shipping business with China, so globalism is a very attractive business climate.  He might speak Kentucky and talk to voters on meat and potato issues.  But politics is their career, so they don’t have levity for big and personal ideas.  So they become just another corrupt politician nobody trusts and turn the office they hold into part of the problem.   Not a solution. 

Many people have wanted a change from this system where they truly get a representative government.  I am certainly one of those people and have a long history of voting for people who are more ideological than practical.  And often, it takes money to have independence, such as Ross Perot always was, and President Trump is now.  When you don’t have to make a living off politics, you can afford to be more of a representative than someone who has to cultivate a culture toward voters that benefits your income.  Again, locally, there are hoards of scandalous characters who work in the legal profession and are only into politics to get legal work done for politicians who need such alliances.  So it’s understandable that a long-term senator like Mitch McConnell would be jealous of someone like President Trump who is in politics for completely different reasons.  Trump wants to make things better, whereas McConnell wants to align politics with his need to be in business, the Chinese shipping business that his father-in-law is involved in.  When you look around at the kind of senators and even house members who make a large part of their income from government, it’s no wonder we have such a mess.  The amount of insider trading that enriches these people is bewildering.  But that has changed because people are sick of it, and Mitch McConnell has long worn out his welcome.  For the last decade, more and more politicians have been getting into the business for the right reasons rather than just being another leech of government enterprise.  The Senate will be unrecognizable to Mitch McConnell after this next election.  With new senators like Kerri Lake and Bernie Moreno, the old guard is finding an unwelcome home there, and it’s just a matter of time before they are all pushed out. 

Of course, in his new book, McConnell called Trump a sleazeball and said he was stupid and that he’s a narcissist.  People who don’t like other people always say things like that.  Enemies called me all those things before most people had breakfast today.  But why do people hate others, and how much is it our task to be liked?  From the local issue I discussed between Sherrif Jones and Kathy Wyenandt, I can say they measure political capital based on how many people like them.  And people often only like other people if there is something that one can do for the other, such as making them rich.  And so it is all too tempting to use the power of government to make people like you so that you can use that same power to make other people rich.  So this game of who likes who and for what reasons becomes the gateway to corruption.  But Mitch has often thought of himself as a master of that game and that he defined the rules of how the game was played.  Then, along comes Trump, who has a whole different perspective.  He doesn’t care if people like him, and he’s already wealthy, so he doesn’t need government power to make him that way.  So, what can you do to control such a person?  Control is why people like Mitch McConnell are in politics; if you can control the world’s economic conditions through the power of government, then you can make people like you and want to do what you say for your approval because there is ultimately money in it for them.

Mitch McConnell can never be forgiven for endorsing election fraud in 2020 when he had the power to stop it.  But he didn’t because he wanted Trump to fail, so they all conspired to make Trump look bad because they wanted him out of office.  It happens all the time.  Again, speaking personally, it happens to me way too often, usually before anybody has breakfast in the morning.  You can never let other people define who or what you are.  People’s opinions are a cutthroat endeavor, and when they are involved, people like Mitch McConnell will seek to take advantage of things for their benefit.  But they do hate people like Trump, who are independent and able to function from ideology.  And that lack of control over people like Trump is what people like Mitch McConnell hate most.  So when McConnell says that the MAGA movement is wrong for the Republican party, what he means, its bad in the way that people like him measures value.  Not as a representative of the people but a mechanism for gaining wealth from the marketplace with government power.  When a crime was committed with massive election fraud in 2020, Mitch was happy to turn his head away and allow it to continue.  Because he personally hated Trump.  He did not love the Republic for which our government stands.  He worked against it, to subvert it from threats that people like President Trump represent by their very nature.  And now, with MAGA, there have been people like J.D. Vance and Bernie Moreno, along with others who are changing what success means in the Senate.  People like Sherrod Brown are being removed from office, and new MAGA patriots are moving in.  So Mitch McConnell wrote a tell-all book that was timed to be one last hit as a Never Trumper against Trump before he left office and is disappearing without a whimper.  Nobody cares because nobody ever really liked Mitch McConnell.  They only wanted what he could do for them, using the power of government to sell to those throwing money around.  He also made a disgrace of the Senate, which voters have been changing over the last several decades.  And now that Trump is back, Mitch is leaving because the game is up.  And the only path of survival for him is to jump off the boat before it sinks forever.

‘Bulletproof’: Yes, we have a government that is willing to kill and do whatever it takes to stay in power

Jack Posobiec and his writing partner Joshua Lisec had already written one excellent book this year in Unhumans, and they were actively promoting it when the tragedy of July 13th occurred, and an assassin, a young kid, tried to kill President Trump at the now famous Butler Pennsylvania Rally.  There was a lot that instantly didn’t add up, so Jack and Joshua went instantly to write another book, Bullet Proof: The Truth About the Assassination Attempts on Donald Trump, and they rushed it to market so that voters would have an opportunity to read it before the 2024 election.  And I think everyone should read it, because what we see in Bullet Proof is the revelation of a massive crime, and a government that is criminally out of control.  There is next to no chance that the shooter, Thomas Crooks, quietly left his retirement home job and just decided one day to kill an American president with almost no social media footprint, had appeared in a BlackRock commercial, and had electronic devices that were communicating with characters all over the world.  And the chances that the Secret Service, the local police, and Homeland Security, in general, would make such a string of baffling Three Stooges-level errors that allowed the kid to climb onto a nearby roof and take shots at Trump during a rally that, thankfully missed.  But did hit members of the audience seriously, injuring them and killing one.  Crooks had help, as the book Bulletproof demonstrates.  The book is a remarkable benchmark in history that gets to the point quickly, which was why these guys rushed it to market.  A crime had been committed, a purposeful murder, and the attitude behind it was revealed in Joe Biden just days before the election when he called over 74 million Trump supporters “garbage” in frustration over how poorly Democrats were doing up and down the ticket.  And to get rid of Trump and that garbage, they used the power of government to kill and destroy whoever kept them from returning to power, which is a genuine concern we all must have once it becomes apparent just how terrible some of these people in government are.

Bulletproof is one of those books that tells a story very few want to admit to. Still, because of the not-so-recent Kennedy assassination, we knew which questions to ask immediately after the attempted Trump assassinations. There is a pattern of influence that quickly emerges, which is why President Trump is now planning to release the report on the Kennedy assassination.  Yes, the CIA was involved, and people need to know how their government behaves.  And the people who have done wrong need to be punished, especially in this recent case from Butler, Pennsylvania.  There will be a lot of crying and whining about fairness and unfairness in the coming months.  But when we hear it, understand that the noise is coming from the kind of people who openly tried to kill Trump supporters during the 2024 election and threw in jail those who stood against them.  So now we have irrefutable evidence of just how bad they are.  Bulletproof, the book proves beyond a reasonable doubt that the attempted Trump assassinations were inside jobs, and we have seen this same kind of approach done in many cases, especially school shootings.   But the Las Vegas shooter comes to mind, as well as the San Bernadino terrorist attack on that Christmas party a few years back.  Returning to Kennedy and knowing what we do now about Nixon, you quickly realize that there is a long history of this government, with many different characters who have purposely plotted the destruction of our republic’s form of government.  And until we stop them, they’ll keep doing it. 

What’s unusual here is that it is just as likely that providence played a direct role in the Trump assassination attempt in preventing it.  Several extraordinary miracles occurred to have that .223 bullet barely graze the top of Trump’s ear at just such a moment that Trump moved his head in just such a way that allowed a miss to happen.  Otherwise, Crooks had a side of the head direct shot that would have essentially decapitated President Trump a few months ahead of the election.  The kind of public assassination we had just seen with Japan’s Shinzo Abe, who was killed ironically just two years before on July 8th of 2022.  And we saw in Brazil the president there, Jair Bolsonaro, stabbed in public in an attempt to kill him.  He survived, but then we went on to watch a criminal released from jail literally to become the new president in Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva for the communists of South America put in place through massive election fraud there, as we have seen in many places in the world.  The pattern comes in the form of the dog whistle that speaks to lonely, and manipulative kids like Thomas Crooks to doing the work of the ruling thugs who hold government power, and that organizations like the CIA can manipulate these people into performing public assassinations.  It’s all part of a game of public manipulation where there is always a population sampling of radicals like the man who tried to kill Trump at his golf course in Florida, Ryan Wesley Routh, who are willing to throw their life away to perform some terrible task.  We have government people who want to hold aristocratic power all over the world and who have flourished as globalists, and they hide behind these acts of violence as isolated incidents when, in reality, they are far from isolated.  And because Trump is the kind of person he is, his force of personality exposed these people through their desperation to act.  They tried too hard and, in the process, revealed themselves, which Jack and Joshua captured nicely in their book.

This leaves us with only one choice; we have to put an end to these globalist governments and their rule over innocent, sovereign people, no matter where in the world they might reside.  Remember, many books provide irrefutable facts that Covid was a created bioweapon that was unleashed in Wuhan, China, for horrible intentions during an election year when the world was mad at Trump over his trade tariffs.  We are dealing with people in government at all levels and everywhere around the world who are perfectly fine with killing people who are in their way.  And we have to admit to ourselves before dealing with them correctly that those killers have no redeemable features.  And we must punish them and remove them from further danger.  We cannot kid ourselves and think that if we are nice to them and leave them alone, they won’t try to kill us and our elected representatives to get what they want.  Bulletproof the book is fantastic in that it reveals a significant crime quickly because there is such a history in the world that during this assassination attempt against Trump, it happened in front of too many people who witnessed it and knew to ask the right kind of questions before all the evidence went cold.  And wisely, Jack and Joshua gathered that evidence and put it in this fantastic book after a short sprint of challenging work that told the story before a primary election.  And nobody can read this book and walk away without a clear understanding of the forces we are dealing with.  It is an out-of-control, murderous government that uses human incompetence as a cover story for its truly destructive plans of global domination and easy money with mob-like control over capital markets.  And they want no challenge to their authority, no matter who it is.  And they do kill to stay in power.

Steve Bannon is Out of Jail: What happens next is the fault of those who put him there, they can only blame themselves

I’m just going to say it bluntly, I will never forgive the people who put Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro in jail during the year of 2024.  The congress that threw them in jail with a corrupt Biden DOJ were obviously crooked, but what was done, purely for political reasons was the loss of freedom for people of a respectable Trump White House.  When Bannon and Navarro were thrown in jail after spending many tens of thousands of dollars defending themselves from a prosecution that was completely politically motivated, only to end up in the disgraceful loss of personal freedom that they had to endure for more than four months in jail.  Nobody had ever gone that far before and had always respected Executive immunity when it comes to administration business.  What Eric Holder and Lois Lerner had done previously, even Barack Obama, was far worse than what Steve Bannon did, or Peter Navarro.  But the Democrats went there, and so did many Republicans who showed to the world that they might not agree with it, but did little to nothing to stop it.  These members of Trump’s Executive White House team were good people and they were thrown in jail like dogs to have to lose personal privacy completely.  Going to jail is no small matter, going to the bathroom in front of people all the time without a door to close would be terrible, and to have to do it day after day after day.  There was no reason for it and the people who did it to them can never be forgiven.  And I personally never will.  I personally like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro, and I think the only way to make things right in the world is to prosecute their prosecutors because they started it and abused the government for their own political purposes, and they have to be paid back.

I know the Trump campaign doesn’t need nor want to get pulled into a lot of controversy, they have an election to win.  But logic says that Trump is going to be back in the White House and when he is, a lot of bad people have to be punished for what they did.  If people didn’t want a revenge tour, they never should have started it.  As I keep saying to everyone who is asking me, if they want someone to blame for what is going to happen to them, they only need to look in the mirror.  Steve Bannan as of today is now out of jail, October 29th 2024, and I’m very glad to see it.  Nobody has suffered really more than the people at the Warroom, people like Grace Chong, Mareen Bannon, and Natalie Winters who have done what they good to keep the popular podcast going while Steve, the primary host, was doing time in jail.  They have put on a brave front, but it hurt them what happened to their friends, just because they happened to run the most popular political podcast in the United States.  Looking back over the last four years, what happened to people like Sidney Powell, General Flynn, Roger Stone and Rudy Giuliani has been disgraceful, and it was all done for purely political reasons, to use the power of government to destroy people who didn’t agree with the party in power.  Never forget the mug shots of the people in Georgia for which Trump was one, who were being prosecuted for questioning the results of the election there.  And nothing more.  Remember Jenna Ellis crying like a baby in front of a judge and turning on Trump to appease those powers that were in office when we talk about revenge in the coming months and years.   It’s not just that they started it and now we have to finish it, but if we want to have a great country we must have justice and people must be punished for the bad things they did.  They don’t get to point at Trump and declare that he’s going to put his critics in jail and prosecute his political enemies when it was they who started it.  They have to be punched in the face, at the very least.

I had quite a few friends who attended the RNC Convention this year in Wisconsin and they wanted to know who I wanted them to get pictures with, and my only real response was that I thought Peter Navarro getting out of jail and going straight to speak at the RNC was one of the most important themes of this election cycle.  There are a lot of things that need to be fixed, but this weaponization of government is the key to so many horrible things that we must rectify.  When we talk about the basic Bill of Rights, they were written because humans have a tendency to do these kinds of things to each other when they gain power, and at the core of all arguments about leadership and the role government plays in society is mitigating the failure of human beings who fall off the rocker.  We cannot have a big government with too much power that can use that power against us for their own profit.  And that is what happened at the very least to Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro.  They were being forced to acknowledge a criminal government or be thrown in jail.  And to show that power over them and the general Warroom audience, they lost their freedom and were insulted with a lack of privacy.  It’s as bad as it gets aside from actually killing people.  And because the bad guys had to respect the law to some extent, they only managed to put Bannan and Navarro in jail for four months.  In other countries, they could have easily been killed.  This is exactly why we have a Second Amendment and free speech at the heart of all our law and order.  Because without those checks on government power, the government would be killing off their political rivals without fear of ever having the tables turn on them. 

It is too much to expect government to be honest.  And when people popularly elect an administration as they did with Trump and his team in the White House as Bannan and Navarro were and will be again, a government that attacks that pick of the people broke and  the law in the most fundamental way, they sought to override a government by the people for the people, and to change it into something else.  Something ominous and oppressive.  And I don’t want to hear the crying for all the paybacks that have to occur.  All those bad guys out there should thank God that so many people have been willing to turn to an election for their redemption and not grab guns and take to violence against their political enemies.  Of course, that threat is always looming in the background and it’s the only thing that keeps bad people honest.  People cannot be trusted to act on their own to do what’s right.  They must have the fear of personal destruction to keep them in check.  And in the case of what was done to the Trump team over the last four years, since the bad guys did go too far, is the tables have to be turned, otherwise there is no hope at justice for the years to come.  We cannot have a good country unless those who truly did wrong are punished.  And now that Steve Bannon is out, and the election is happening, what happens next must happen.  The bad guys are bad people for a reason.  And they cannot molest our society without consequences, and the fault for that is entirely on their shoulders.  They did it to themselves.

The Epic Joe Rogan Interview with President Trump: Dreaming big again

I am very proud of President Trump.  Many people around him, including Elon Musk and Melania, for her fantastic entry into Madison Square Garden on the 27th of October, showed their best selves as a result of a fantastic campaign by Trump at the close of the 2024 election season.  That’s how you win, and it starts with effort.  And nobody in the history of the world, looking back, or forward will ever perform what President Trump has over these last four years.  Talk about resiliency.  He has made me very proud and has set a standard that will never be forgotten.  And even though the campaign still has a week or so, what the Trump campaign did at Madison Square Garden was epic and unforgettable.  It was astonishingly good.  However, that wasn’t the most significant thing that Trump could have done to secure his domination in this election cycle.  It was the Joe Rogan Podcast from that previous Friday, October 25th, 2024 where Trump sat down with the hottest podcast in the nation and just talked for three hours straight with no interruptions, no breaks, no notes.  Trump just sat down and spoke to Joe Rogan unscripted for three hours, something very few people could have done.  And Trump was fantastic.  When you add it all up, the week leading up to that podcast, then what was done at Madison Square Garden in New York City, of all places, for a Republican to campaign in what is considered forbidden territory, the sum of it was just jaw-dropping.   Talk about a guy who likes to win and has done everything to do so.  And even those hardened to him couldn’t help but admire the effort.  I think we aren’t just talking about a win with this effort against Kamala Harris, but Trump is playing to have the biggest win in the history of elections, including the dominating win Reagan had over Mondale in 1984. 

Leading up to the Madison Square Garden rally, I was at Kings Island with my family, and specifically, as I reviewed the clips from the Joe Rogan Podcast, I had a fascinating conversation with one of my grandchildren, who is 12.  I was about his age in 1984 when Reagan won in a landslide, and it had a feeling about it, like what we see today with Trump.  Only Reagan didn’t go through nearly what Trump has.  I am excited for my grandchildren, and I was able to explain to him that if everything goes well with this election on November 5th, and we have every reason in the world to believe it will, there is an opportunity for magnificent growth in America that is more than just a little bit, well deserved.  A few short months ago, I didn’t think there was a chance Elon Musk and President Trump would ever do anything together, so having the world’s richest man directly connected to Trump is a massive boost because, as fair or unfair as it is, Musk has brought an enthusiasm that people like George Soros and Jeff Bezos have applied negatively.  Elon Musk has become very effective, and Trump has earned that respect by surviving that assassin’s bullet.  A few months later, I watched this Joe Rogan Podcast as it occurred and listened in wonderment.  There were so many sound clips from that show that made excellent soundbites that even in the hours after, the political left had no countermeasure for.  There was so much said in those three hours that Trump had slammed shut an election victory for him at that moment.  And he wasn’t even done at that time.  Trump and Rogan even talked about aliens in that podcast.  It was quite extraordinary. 

But the promise of prosperity for a young 12-year-old is on the table here.  After all that we have been through as a country, we deserve something good, and as I reviewed the Joe Rogan clips and showed them to my grandson while we were in line for several rides, the enthusiasm was unmistakable.  We were on the cusp of something monstrously big, and Joe Rogan had managed to capture it with an excellent interview.  Trump was his best self during it, leaving in the wake plenty that anybody voting could like and get behind. Trump was swinging for the fences after ten years of some of the worst political treatment anybody has ever had, and it was coming fast not with just one homerun but several that were flying out of the park in a highlight reel nobody would ever forget.  I kept telling my grandson how culture changed a lot in the 80s, economically and socially, once Reagan won that second term; there was prosperity in America from about 1981 to 1989 that came from Reagan’s open embrace of capitalism and the defeat of the Soviet Union through policy that unleashed optimism everyone benefited from.  It was encouraging to see my grandchildren coming to age in this remarkable Trump election that was shaking off so many oppressive elements.  Like Rocky from the movies, Trump could be crawling across the finish line, all beat up and barely standing.  But here was a guy that had gone through all he had and was dressed in his business suit, looking better than ever, and showing himself to be at the height of his power.  At this moment, in line with my grandson, and just ahead of Trump’s appearance at Madison Square Garden, the recent betting odds for Trump to win came out at 94.5%, for the first time. 

Kamala Harris couldn’t have done even a tiny portion of what Trump did, especially the Joe Rogan Podcast.  She’s very unexceptional and has little to say about anything.  And in many ways, that is what Trump managed to crack through all the trouble and present to the world.   As I watched the Joe Rogan clips at Kings Island, I also got a live stream from London where they were having a rally for Trump across from Parliament.  I remember standing in that exact spot in 2017 when Trump had just been elected and watching the world react to it in a very negative way, especially in London.  But now the world was watching this American election and praying for Trump’s return, so this isn’t just America that’s excited.  The world is on edge, hoping for an excellent performance, which Trump has shown them; he has done everything he could to win and win big.  There is a chance for Trump not just to win, but for a period of enthusiasm to come from under the barriers of oppression that has stifled creative growth for over a century, even more.  And Trump had united everyone to his cause, even those like Musk who had been left of center most of his life.  Suddenly, Musk at Madison Square Garden talked about taxation in ways that were even more conservative than the Tea Party’s position.  All of this came because of Trump’s excellent campaign.  We were seeing something epic happening in politics and culture.  And the potential for what comes next for the children coming to age in this period is epic.  In many ways, all this campaign activity from Trump gave the feeling of a great nation overcoming an incredible sickness that had suddenly broken, and everyone felt much better.  And much of that was evident on the Joe Rogan Podcast, which would have been enough; it would have been the highlight of most political campaigns.  But for Trump, it was just another day at the office.  The bar of expectations has been shattered, and everyone has grown positively.  And it was wonderful to see.

Yes, the Media is Filled with Stupid People: If you want the job done right, sometimes you just have to do it yourself

It seems like I am answering many questions lately from people who have long wanted to ask.  Such as, why have I put so much effort into writing a 1200-word article every day on this blog site, much of the time, accompanied with video for over 15 years.  The answer is that I can do a better job than anybody else in the media, and I say that because over the last 20 years, I have known the kind of people who end up in media, and if we want to tell the story by reporting media, then you can limit the news to the type of people who are typically picked to be in it.  And I say that because I would know.  There was a large part of my life where all I wanted to do was to be a film director and movie producer.  If you go through my writing over the last 15 years, you’ll see a very distinct break by me from all media outlets around the first election for Trump.  Once I came out in favor of Trump, everybody turned on me.  But before that, people in the business tolerated me.  They even invited me to movie sets with A-lits actors and charming dinners in Glendale and Santa Monica, California, to discuss brewing projects.  But there came a time around 2009 when Barack Obama was president when we all had to decide.  The Tea Party movement needed the modern version of Thomas Paine, Ben Franklin, and even John Paul Jones, who could work a revolution from the background.  I also got to know good people who broke away in the media, and I was one of them.  Of all my contacts, I knew quite a few people at Clear Channel Radio, which I utilized to advance Tea Party causes, who would eventually move over to Glenn Beck’s Blaze.  So yes, I have had a lot of opportunities in media. Still, I found through personal experience that people who make a living in media are a particular kind of person. If the truth were going to be told about things, then I would have to take away those elements myself, which is what I have been doing now for quite a long time.

So, doing the blog for me is similar as to why Trump wants to run for president.  It costs him money to run for a political office, and everyone knows what he has been through to do it.  We need the same kind of commitment from people who can afford to, at all levels of society, if we want to make America Great Again.  I gave up on the idea of being one of them in media by identifying myself with the Tea Party movement, and I found over the next five or six years that I could do a lot better on my own.  I know the kind of people who read my blog and do it because they get better news than they do from newspapers and broadcasts, and they get it every day in a way that tells a whole story on a topic instead of some little fragment.   And I don’t do it for fame or opportunity, but because it’s a job that needs to be done. It could only happen if you didn’t care what people thought and didn’t need anybody to pay you to do the job.  So, from top to bottom, I know media personalities at all levels and understand the personality types who survive in the business, and I determined that I would do the job myself if I wanted it done right. 

I would say most media types are whores.  I found it reprehensible what Clear Channel did to Doc Thompson, a pretty good friend who worked directly for Glenn Beck after quite a lot going on behind the scenes.  For a long time, I was careful not to call people out too much because chances were, they would call me to be on a show.  I’d write a book, and my publishers didn’t want me to rock the boat personally with things, so I tried to keep personalities out of my comments.  But during Trump’s last term, when I saw how everyone treated him, especially in the media, I just tossed all that out the window and stopped answering the calls or appearing anywhere.  Of course, I alienated people at a significant personal cost to me.  But that’s OK.  I have done what I think is a good job on a desperately needed topic.  Because most people who are in the media, and survive there, aren’t very good people for many reasons.  In Cincinnati, there was a time about a decade ago when I knew most every media personality on a first-name basis, and I had their phone numbers and would send them text messages often throughout the day.  Even in 2019, when I was on vacation with my wife at the Epcot Center in Florida, I had the media people at Channel 12 wanting to know the latest on the Trump front in Butler County, and I reluctantly took the call because I liked the guy.  But it was a nowhere story to feed a narrative they didn’t really want to get.  All the media personalities were cheerleading for the removal of Trump, and I lost any desire to correspond with them. 

So because the media is such a mess, and when Trump calls them “fake news,” I know all too well what he means.  He understands it because he was a media darling for a long time, and they invited him into their world.  Trump used that knowledge to be president and started to untie all the shoes of the rat-infested substructure of all media during that first term.  There were a lot of people who had to make hard decisions, and I was certainly one of them.  And I’m glad I did.  I think if I hadn’t poured millions and millions of words that people needed to hear into this AI-infested media climate, there are a lot of influential people who would only have had Fox News and some conservatives from New York writing books to help shape their courage where it matters in day to day matters.  I have always been good at media, like many people.  But what was different about me was that I could do other things, too.  I didn’t have to eat out of the hand of some money investor who wanted to drive a media narrative, especially once Trump became involved in the story.  I was free to talk about Trump any way I wanted.  Many might remember the radio broadcasts I did out of Ann Arbor, Michigan, from 2016 to 2018.  It was a privately owned radio station where I frequently hosted Saturday shows.  I would talk about the benefits of the Trump presidency, and even they were reserved because it was the culture of media that was a problem, and they needed advertising dollars to stay open, and they were always worried about being shut down by the FCC and their advertisers.  So, I have been writing this blog for a long time now.  I am happy with the work that has been a slow trickle working in the background for a long time.  And I have done it because I wanted to, because I wanted people to hear at least a critical opinion that was not at all whored out to any money tied interest.  I’m glad all that occurred.  But yes, from my knowledge, I can say it: the media is filled with people who are not very smart and incapable of seeing the big picture.  And the big picture is where the story always was.  Telling that story takes a perspective of freedom that cannot come from an insider.  Of course, the cost to all that is lost opportunity, financially.  But the value exceeds money by a lot because, in truth, there is an expansion of the human race for which we presently sit on the precipice in ways that seemed impossible just a few years ago.  Yet, here we are.  And yes, it was all worth it.  Things don’t always work out the way you think they will.  But often, because you do things for the right reasons, things work out for the better.

If You Vote for Kamala Harris You Are Stupid: Only dumb people could vote for such a loser

It’s been a while since I was last in the northern part of Ohio, right before an election.  I remember traveling through Akron in 2016, a few weeks before the election, where I was visiting a tool manufacturer, and you could tell who was voting for who.  No matter how conservative the southern part of the state was, Cleveland, for example, and the areas directly to the south, like Akron, were overwhelmingly Democrat party voting areas.  This is the land of Sherrod Brown, the multi-decade senator from Ohio who has been hard to beat over the years.  This was labor union country, they tend to endorse Democrats very vocally.  But even back then, I could tell that Trump would do well in 2016 as Ohio was considered the must-win state, almost to the point where Florida was the other.  They were considered toss-ups during that first election of Trump and, as history would show, would become strongholds for Republicans over the next decade.  And by the time we arrived in 2024, Ohio was a solid state for Trump.  No matter where you went in the state, it was mostly all Trump yard signs.  So, I was curious how Cleveland would be.  I attended a gun competition in the region just a few weeks before the election.  And I saw some Harris signs along with Sherrod Brown signs.  But it is not like I have seen them in the past.  There were a lot of Trump signs, more than in 2016, or 2020 and more people supporting Bernie Moreno than Sherrod Brown.  Even in Cleveland, people were turning away from the Democrat party.  However, there were more visible signs of Democrats in this region, a wealthy suburb of Cleveland, than in other places I have been.  And I couldn’t help but think one thing as I drove by those houses. 

Political expression is not something that should be stigmatized.  People should be able to express themselves and a political party of their choosing without ridicule and harassment.  However, Democrats are well known for harassing those who don’t believe the same things they do—so based on their behavior, when you see other people supporting Democrats vocally, with yard signs and bumper stickers all over their cars, it paints a universally obvious picture.  As I drove by all those homes outside of Cleveland and saw all the Harris signs, I couldn’t help but think one thing based on my experience with those people: they must be stupid.  Anybody consciously voting for Kamala Harris had to be stupid. There isn’t any other explanation for it.  Oddly enough, many of the homes I saw with Harris signs in them, or Sherrod Brown were large homes with a lot of property, so how could such stupid people afford such large houses?  The answer is that most of those people work or somehow benefit from significant government growth, and I don’t tend to view those kinds of jobs as legitimate.  They may be in well-paid occupations, but the type of people in those jobs are often parasites and not the most industrious.  So, of course, they supported a big looting government filled with stupid people who collectively gathered together as an oppressive force to confiscate the wealth of the hard-working and buy themselves big houses that they would put Biden/Harris signs in as registered Democrats.  But knowing what everyone now did about Kamala Harris, nobody with any brains could openly support someone like her, even under the persuasion of personal gain.  To support Kamala Harris for anything, the person must be stupid.

And as I drove by those homes, that’s all I could think of.  These weren’t the homes of people with any foundations in intelligence.  These were stupid people who needed big government to give their worthless lives meaning through force and power.  They were willing to overlook all the problems we have seen with Biden, for which Kamala Harris, an open Marxist, was the vice president.  It takes a conscious decision to put a yard sign out for display in favor of a political candidate.  And I’ve seen them in great abundance over the years on all sides.  So, we’re not talking about accepting the free expression of rival political parties here. Instead, we are just talking about dumb people who need the power of government to compensate for their sheer stupidity.  Anybody voting for Kamala Harris had to be stupid.  That was my only thought as I drove in and around Cleveland.  It wasn’t just an expression of personal gain.  It was an expression of stupidity.  Kamala Harris supporters had to be stupid.  There was no other explanation for it.  To support any Democrats is a stupid idea.  But Kamala Harris is now well known for her stupidity, and with those facts in mind, people still willingly put out yard signs in her favor in Ohio.  So it wasn’t a matter of respecting their opinion for a political belief.  But it was instead an expression of stupidity that they wished to declare to the world.  For whatever reason, they felt a need to declare to the world that stupidity for all to see.  And to do it boldly as their conduct would be forgiven for using government as a leverage against sanity. 

Of course, there were plenty of Trump signs, too.  And I was surprised to see a lot of signs in this region for Bernie Moreno.  It was encouraging to see just how many, and compared to past years, there was a lot more Trump support than I’ve seen in the past.  Knowing the kind of people who are so stupid to vote for Kamala Harris, likely the homes with signs in them are government employees such as school teachers and worthless bureaucrats in government industry.  It used to be that being a school teacher was a respected occupation, but these days, it paints a picture of an overpaid, overweight slob teaching Marxism to the next generation and demanding a fortune for the effort.  They aren’t intelligence representatives just because they are in the teaching profession.  And they reiterate that fact with their voting record.  The people with a Harris sign in their yard are government looters, not hard-working capitalists.  They are benefactors of Karl Marx’ class-based society and they vote for government power because their worthless lives would have nothing if not for such a monstrosity of imposition against personal conduct as they utilize for their benefit.  It’s not like those people with such large homes gained them through genius in business.  They obtained them through the force of government to steal through others with taxes and to benefit the lazy and stupid with large incomes they don’t deserve.  And because they are stupid, they were audacious in displaying their support for a candidate as flawed as Kamala.  Because only someone stupid could vote for a person who is so dumb, it’s not a matter of respecting different opinions.  It’s simply overlooking sheer stupidity in the face of reality and witnessing an arrogance that is out of step with the future the way that only dumb people would find appropriate.  And as hard to believe as it is, there are supporters for Kamala Harris.  And those that are can only be explained to be that way because they are stupid.
