‘Horizon: An American Saga,’ a movie that is magnificent for all who want to Make America Great Again

It’s a great movie that deserves to be seen in a movie theater, but most of what you have heard about the new film Horizon: An American Saga is wrong regarding the negative stuff.  It’s a big, bold movie that tries to put its arms around American westward expansion and can almost touch its fingers on the other side.  But it does do what many Westerns since the early days of cinema have done, and that captures the vast expanses of the West and American opportunity along the way that is simply magnificent.  This was a western on the scope of How the West Was Won, made by a guy in Kevin Costner, who loves westerns and has built the best parts of his career by making them.  It reminded me of an Alan Ekert novel from the Frontiersman series.  Now, this will not win the Academy Awards.  They will hate Costner for making this movie, so don’t expect any respect from the Hollywood machine for this Western series, which is the first of a projected four.  They are filming the third installment as of the summer of 2024.  The second part comes out in the middle of August.  And I hope they complete part four.  This is not a traditional way of making movies; you watch the first part in a movie theater for over three hours.  Then, once all the primary characters are introduced, you have to return a few months later to see what happens next.  At the end of Horizon: An American Saga Part One, we are just getting started on an epic story about the creation of America as a country, which is vastly ambitious.  I would say, from Kevin Costner’s point of view, this is a love letter to all the blood it took to make America and to make a point about why it was worth it. 

As a business decision, this is not built on the model Hollywood is built on today.  Not all standard measures can be applied.  This movie is made, I think, to try to save movie theaters from becoming the modern version of drive-ins.  There are economic forces out there that are very consciously trying to destroy various American industries through woke politics, and Hollywood has fallen for the trap in many ways, willingly.  The communist left has an agenda, and they have been attacking American Westerns for decades now.  This movie, Horizon: An American Saga, is a purposeful rebellion against that trend.  It is exceptionally well made by the same guy who directed Dances with Wolves.  It has all that size and scope and then some.  The problem with a movie like this is that the union labor costs are so outrageous now that it’s nearly impossible to make any large production without exceeding a 100 million dollar budget.   As I watched the credits until the end, this is a big Hollywood movie with all the big labor that comes with such a production, so the financing doesn’t add up in a traditional way, as measured by The Hollywood Reporter.  When John Ford made westerns like this, the budgets with unionized labor weren’t nearly so out of control.  So they could afford to tell stories like this without all the fast-paced action of a summer blockbuster.  This movie was designed to be presented significantly and for people to go to the theater to see it as opposed to streaming it at home.  It’s so long that it keeps people in the movie theater for a long time buying snacks.  And it could and should be seen several times.  And that people will keep coming back for future installments to see the next parts.  It’s an almost unheard-of financial model where Costner uses his personal money to help get the films out. 

It doesn’t surprise me that the film only made 10 million dollars in its opening weekend.  I mean, who is going to see it? It’s long, and they talk a lot.  There aren’t many action scenes.  It is filmed with traditional pacing; it reminded me of Little House on the Prairie or Gunsmoke in most of the movie.  The camera angles are broad but set, and the actors do a lot of work talking.  That’s not to say that everything isn’t interesting, but this isn’t a Marvel movie designed to be a billion-dollar box office generator.  They aren’t trying to thrill you with a spectacular action scene every ten minutes.  This is a plodding and deliberate movie made in the classic way to return to theaters after COVID-19, a Hollywood product that puts people back in their seats, not just for one event, but several times.  It was an extraordinarily bold throwback to when Hollywood told these kinds of stories often, and for people looking for their country back after years of political turmoil, this movie is a stake in the ground to inspire people to deal with the enormity of creating the greatest country on the face of the earth, and not to apologize for it.  Given the political situation we are all experiencing now, this is a movie for Trump supporters who want to Make America Great Again.  While Hollywood does love Kevin Costner, they certainly won’t be happy with him making this movie; The industry has attacked him for it in every negative reporting avenue they could.  But this is a project that Kevin Costner loves, and it shows.  And it is worth sharing, for sure.

A lot has been made about how Indians are portrayed in this movie.  Although they were brutal, I didn’t think they were shown in too harsh of a light.  People thought of them as savages.  It is the communist left who has told us that we were supposed to be in love with them and to think of them as indigenous people who were here first and that we took their land from them.  I have a very different view of Indian life, and I do not see them as a superior culture who had a right to be in North America and that we took something from them.  This movie, Horizon: An American Saga, gives the Indians more credit than I think they deserve.  In history, they were migrants just like everyone else, looking for a life for themselves.  But this living with nature crap is very much a globalist communist sentiment meant to control human behavior, not to do what humans were born to do, and that is to create.  Horizon is a movie about the need for American expansion and the collision of those forces on one of the last free places on Earth.  And as violent and challenging as it was, why did people do it?  It’s a movie that explains to us through all the lenses a movie can provide.  The effect is simply magnificent and different from any other movie experience that I’ve ever seen in my lifetime.  I hope it works.  It’s a massive gamble by Kevin Costner to put his life’s work into a movie like this and a series meant exclusively to be seen in a movie theater.  Movie theaters need movies like this to stay open, and Costner is trying to start a trend.  But the timing of it couldn’t have come at a better time.  This is a movie for all of us, no matter what your political background.  And America deserves this story to be told for its benefit.  Because ultimately, it’s the main character and the point of the entire enterprise.

The Illusion of Joe Biden: Who really runs the world

Sorry to break it to everyone. People continue to be surprised that Joe Biden is not in charge of our government, and he never was.  I told you guys that he was a puppet president put in place.  He was not elected.  The Administrative State selected him to serve the Deep State of globalists hiding in the World Economic Forum in the mountains of Davos.  And the Joe Biden presidency is them flexing the muscle of their power and control over the rest of us.  Now that time has passed, and the election fraud of 2020 is so apparent, with objective evidence beyond a doubt, the realization is becoming more mainstream.  People have assumed that when they elect a president, they bring in an executive to run the country.  But that is not what the hostile agents of doom worldwide want.  They want an idiot like Joe, who is so compromised as a person that he is easy to control.  They are still so mad that we elected Trump back in 2016 that they no longer care if we see how they control our lives.  The illusion of freedom has now been ripped away, and during that debate with Trump at the end of June 2024, people had that moment where they realized that all the comments about Biden were not some conspiracy theory created by some Alex Jones personality.  This was real.  To many people, that realization was terrifying and something that people were beginning to observe.  If Joe Biden wasn’t running the country, then who was?  The answer is the Administrative State.  The Biden presidency is a creation of bureaucrats to preserve Washington D.C.’s culture of easy money and sinful mayhem.  And they didn’t want a real executive like President Trump traditionally running things.  Instead, they gave us President Biden to flex their muscle and preserve their globalist plans.  And now they aren’t even trying to hide it with that mess of a debate they gave us with tongues deeply in their cheeks.

But how could they do such a thing?  Well, it’s simple, and we see this audaciousness in almost every industry.  Yes, it is raw communism, but it is disguised to us as procedural fulfillment.  Those who write the rules and create the procedures are the absolute rulers of the world.  And that is how they have been running Joe Biden.  He is not concerned about deciding on the health of the nuclear football because these same administrator types control the whole world and know whether there will be a war or not between two parties.  They have complete control over everything, including when wars happen and where, such as in the Russia/Ukraine war presently.  Or the fight between the Palestinians and Israel.  Or whether China will invade Taiwan.  It’s all carefully scripted, with procedural mandates flowing down through the United Nations.  How it works in this Biden White House and since the first George Bush was in office was that administrators following the handbook of global politics set the agenda and policy for the American president, and he is supposed to follow that without deviation.  The president’s job, such as Obama’s job exclusively, was to sell the illusion to the public.  Not to make executive decisions.  We don’t have a system that allows for a president to act as a traditional executive.  They aren’t making decisions decisively in the situation room anymore.  They are given PR memos and told what to say and where to do it.  It’s all written down for them, but who does all the writing?  Well, it’s the same pinheaded young college kids who learn in school how to be friendly, little compliant members of the administrative state.  They also learn to get their information from the United Nations, where all procedures and rules for global conduct are put in place. 

It works that way in business, too.  Many of the world’s best companies are not run by strong personalities as we expect them to be. Instead, most CEOs are focused on compliance with the standards created by the Administrative State.  The values have shifted dramatically in recent years, not to a company’s performance but more to its compliance with rules and standardization, which is meant to bring sameness to the world’s industries and usher in global communism using China as the model.  That is what the United Nations has been doing in the background.  And for proof, look at your local zoning and township maintenance.  Most of what they have to deal with comes straight out of the pages of Agenda 21 and 2030, including the smart meters on all our houses.  I live in an area heavily targeted by Agenda 21’s “sustainable development” and warned everyone 20 years ago what it was and how it would be done.  As a result, we have roundabouts and bicycle trails everywhere for these beta males who like to ride bicycles looking like girls in their tight spandex pants and gay little helmets.  But the shell game works like this: Deep Staters flow down the rules and regulations through the Administrative State, who pick it up and flow it into every company in the world through standardization.  And it ends up in local government school boards and with the trustees as enforceable mandates.  And if the local leadership doesn’t follow the rules, they get sued.  When people are upset over some new zoning change, all trustees can do is follow the zoning recommendations, which are entirely shaped by those same kids right out of college who were trained to be compliant members of the Administrative State bureaucracy.  And if the trustees don’t follow the rules and prove themselves non-compliant, they are harassed legally. 

This has been the phantom impact of global communism as advocated by the United Nations.  This is how they plan to rule the world, as they have been doing. Essentially, all rules and regulations that we endure today, no matter what industry it is, go to the doorstep of the mindless bureaucrats banging wine glasses together in the mountains of Davos hiding behind the World Economic Forum on behalf of the United Nations.  And Joe Biden, for them, was revenge against the rest of us because Trump threatened to dismantle that entire mess.  So Joe Biden, the complete idiot, was to stick it in our eye that they are in control and have been for years.  But we are fighting back, with Trump running for another term.  The Supreme Court just ruled on the Chevron case, which dramatically takes away the power of the Administrative State to grab power for itself and then continue to change rules, solidifying that power to an even greater extent.  As bad as it has been, people are catching on, and if that debate was meant to discourage people from challenging the power of the Administrative State, it turned people in the other direction.  I would say that the power and arrogance of the Deep State and their frustrations at a public that insists on more than an illusion of freedom forced them into a rather large error.  They should not have put Biden on that stage to show the world he was never in charge.  Because it only confirmed the suspicions that the public had been having.  They may have wanted a replacement on the Democrat ticket while there is still time to build up someone else.  But this is the kind of mess you always get when dealing with the Administrative State.  They make a lot of mistakes because competent rulers don’t rule them.  But pinheaded bureaucrats who have been trying to replace real executive leadership for years.  And it’s all been a trick that most people have fallen for, at least until now.

What Happens on the Day After: If we find out we don’t have a country

So……………that debate was so bad between Trump and Joe Biden that it left people wondering, what happens if we get through the election and Trump does not end up in the White House?  At this point, it’s obvious everyone is going to vote for Trump.  The Democrats should have never tried to put Joe Biden on stage for more than a few minutes.   He was a mess, a diabolical disaster, Joe Biden.  Going into the debate, Trump was ahead in the polling.  Coming out of the debate of June 27th, 2024, there will be no question.  Biden is the candidate of globalism, which means he’s a guy that the globalists think they can control, which is why they stuck with him for a puppet presidency.  And it has blown up in their faces, leaving the question, why did they put him up there?  They had this debate early, two months before their Democrat National Convention, so they could adjust and get another candidate while there was still time.  But honestly, there isn’t time.  Democrats are stuck with Joe, and now there is a lot of head-scratching from the come lately crowd.  It was never clearer how things should go in this upcoming election.  So people want to know what happens on the day after the election; what do they do if Trump isn’t elected back into the White House, even after the choice was as clear as this and people picked him overwhelmingly more than Joe Biden?  I would argue that this was indeed the case the first time around in 2020.  Biden did not get 81 million votes.  He was put in office, not elected by the people.  When it comes to globalism, it is not an unusual concept.  Joe Biden is good for globalism because they do not want a strong American leader.  And they think they are in charge of the world, especially the results of elections. 

Well, it’s not time yet to grab the guns and charge down the globalists who are behind this mess.  Don’t panic.  These are horrendously bad people who are power-hungry to extremely detrimental levels. For example, Jill Biden displayed after the debate to a wondering, aloof Joe Biden looking around aimlessly with a weird smile, a panic that startled a lot of people.  I would say this is what losing power looks like, and Democrats are losing it.  They wouldn’t have put him out there a long time ago if they had a better option.  But they didn’t because this is how they thought they could get away with all the globalist agenda criteria.  Most of the world has rigged elections.  The United States is unique in that we have stable law and order that isn’t easily toppled, but the Democrats have been caught trying to, and now ordinary, regular, everyday people see what’s going on, and they are going to vote for their own best interest.  But for the first time, the globalist, Deep State types won’t be able to trick people into providing them a cover of legitimacy behind policy disputes, as they have been doing for decades.  The communist left has a big problem, and yes, they will turn to violence to take power and hold power.  They have been rigging elections all over the world, and in the United States, they have been caught, and we are going to have to do something about it.  I would recommend working this out in Congress through legal means.  But if we find out that we don’t have a functioning government, which is what we are talking about, what will we do? 

I would say that this is precisely why we have the Second Amendment.  The only thing that has prevented an all-out war with firearms against communist insurgents is that they have been functioning from the perspective that they could always trick just enough people into following their radical agenda.   And who they couldn’t convince, they acquired through election fraud against an unsuspecting, well-meaning public.  But that’s gone now; there is no way to recover from that previous position.  The world, especially in America, will never return to what the Democrats had previously enjoyed.  They have lost the trust of the people.  Trump is a much more attractive candidate after that debate than before, and the process of trying to destroy Trump with all the weapons of an Administrative State has only revealed the game to the public that has always been going on.  So when the election is held, and if people don’t get Trump, when the pick will be so clear, then what?  Do we say, “Ah shucks, we gave it a nice try, now let’s return to our everyday lives?”  No, that won’t be the thing to do.  We’re going to have to take back our government from the control of these globalist insurgents by force.  It’s a promise we all make to pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.  And we can’t give control of our government over to these globalist managers.  What they have done is nothing short of an attack on our country and all our lives, as hostile as any military attack in history.  And they have to pay for what they did.  They all have it coming, in as much of a menacing way as possible.  They did it to themselves. 

But what does that mean?  I would put it this way: this is precisely why we had to do what we had to do.  Keep your powder dry and expose all this in the way we have.  It’s much more exciting to go into these kinds of things with guns blazing and a clear winner of good guys and bad guys that can be written about in the context of history.  But we have to play by the rules if we want to win by the rules, and honestly, what we see is never supposed to happen.  By now, the globalists were hoping that there would be a civil war of violence in America so they could tip-toe into the background and hide in the mountains of Davos behind the mask of chaos.  Instead, they have to hide behind this fool Biden and be exposed for their tampering the way they were in this debate.  And if Trump had played anything differently, we wouldn’t know much of what we do know now.  The communist left is in trouble everywhere that globalism has stuck itself into.  They have also been exposed in America through the Biden presidency.  If there was doubt during Obama’s administration, or even the Bush administration, those doubts are now gone.  And the election is clear about how it should go.  And if we find out that we don’t control our elections, and they make a pick for us that we don’t want, we will have to get nasty about it, which we can afford to do because we have played by the rules entirely up to this point.  But the fact does not mean we surrender our country to globalist insurgents.  We have a right and obligation to control our country, and we will do so.  And if it turns to violence, it will be the fault of the communist left.  And I am personally ready for that.  But not before we exert every notion of the rule of law through the election process.  If they take that away from us, as they did in 2020, we must take it back with more than a patty cake sentiment.  But that will be on the day after and not before.

Joe Biden Was A Disaster: If you want to destroy your enemies, make them compete with you

Whatever anybody thought about putting Joe Biden on stage for a June debate, there would never be a good outcome.  With the White House disputing even facts everyone could see and calling them Deep Fakes or “Cheap Fakes,” having that beat-up old compromised man on stage for 90 minutes against one of the best communicators in modern history wasn’t very smart.  It was even arrogant because the belief was that the people who did put him on stage thought they had such control over all things in the Administrative State that they might get away with it.  No, it was a bloodbath, even more so than anybody had hoped.  Even Democrats had to agree, even if their enthusiasm for that disaster was the hope that Gavin Newsom or Gretchen Whitmer might take over at the last minute.  The truth of the matter is that Joe Biden is the best that the Democrats had to put up, and he fits the needs that globalists have for domination over both American political parties, which they have sought to control.  Biden was a puppet president who was inserted.  And whatever they thought about doing the debate, and doing it in June as opposed to the fall season closer to the election so they could make adjustments before the August convention, nothing can salvage that performance.  It was probably the worst debate performance in the history of debates, not because I wanted it to be, but because it was what it was.  Joe Biden looked horrendous.  There were no Deep Fakes or Cheap Fakes in the editing.  He looked terrible, and everyone at the end of the debate knew it.  At least, Biden did one good thing: he brought the country together to agree that he lost that debate and was horrible for the Democrat Party.  And that the Democrats were now stuck with him. 

What was more critical was Jill Biden’s little speech at the end, where she looked even worse.  The screen captures of her crazy face, forever reminding everyone what has been happening.  Jill Biden is a product of the system, a person of social titles, and exactly what America wanted to get away from regarding European aristocracy.  How will she keep her family out of jail if she loses power?  She clasped onto Joe Biden, looking like he was a kid in the Willy Wonka factory, much as she did the trial of Hunter Biden on the gun charge, flying in from France to show her support in the courtroom.  But the minute she wasn’t somebody in public office, she was a nobody with no talent, and that was scary to her.  It showed up in her speech when she realized that Biden had all but lost the election after that debate performance.  Her dreams of keeping her family out of jail for their years of crimes depended on staying in public office.  That was the only way out for them.  While her husband, Joe, might not live very long, the Hunter Biden stories and the Ashley Biden diary revelations will continue to destroy her family for years to come, and she will end up a disgraced wreck.  Her husband might have avoided that embarrassment through death, which looked to be at their door with his performance, but she had more life to live. Without the presidency or a prominent place in the Democrat Party, she would drift into obscurity quickly.  And she realized it with the cameras rolling. 

This is kind of a thing for me; all I can say is that these are the benefits of competition.  Everyone who kept their powder dry could pat themselves on the back.  If you don’t play by the law, you can’t use the law.  And many of these crazy lunatics from the communist left would have hoped by now that the whole country would have been a January 6th.  The Masons had experience with this when they provoked the French Revolution, which got out of hand.  The only way out for many of these Democrats, after what they had done in the decades leading up to this debate, was to create massive unrest.  They wanted more violence than what they ended up with on January 6th.  And I still can’t blame people for getting angry on that day.  It could have been worse.  We witnessed a government stealing our election to stay in power.  And those in power are lucky that all they received was the little protest of January 6th.  It could have been far, far worse.  But I think the best way to beat your opponents is to make them compete and not let them hide behind some administrative veil.  Make them stand on stage and perform.  And because Trump and the rest of us did not riot or give up on the Constitution, the Democrats had to have that debate and show what a fool Biden was to the world.  The pressure of the expectation to perform legally forced them to do what they were not prepared to do.  As I say all the time if elections are protected from cheating, Democrats cannot win an honest election.  And if forced to perform in a competitive endeavor, they can’t, not at any level, win. 

And that is the lesson: if you want to defeat globalism, don’t fall for all their shiny toys.  Don’t let them mesmerize you with illusion.  Make them perform, and watch them fall apart.  You won’t have to fire a shot.  They will destroy themselves, just as Joe Biden did on that debate stage where everything was in his favor, including that CNN was the host.  Trump walked into enemy territory where everything was against him, and he dominated, which was the point.  Everyone was so worried that Trump was going to fall into a trap.  He’s a good executive; if you are good at anything, you should be able to walk into hostile territory and do well.  Trump needed to show the world what losers all these people were.  And just by showing up, it forced Democrats to put their best person on stage, and yes, Joe Biden is their best person.  That’s how bad they are.  Without all the illusion of The Wizard of Oz, with the smoke and fire, there is a weak little man behind the curtain who is powerless.  And they put him there to pull the levers because he was harmless and would let lesser people rule the world.  That is until people realize what an illusion it always was.  And anybody who wanted to believe in that illusion had that ripped away from them with this debate, which will likely be the last one.  Joe Biden could never afford such an exhibition of incompetence ever again.  And nobody is ever going to give him a chance.  If you want to win at life, make your enemies perform before you go crazy, grab guns, and turn to lawlessness.  The way we handled some of the most significant crimes in human history has been good.  It might not have been fun.  But it has been effective, and the proof was in this devastating debate performance.  We are just getting started on the dismantling of the administrative state.  This was just one little brick. 

Defeat communism in your community, in your country, and throughout the world

How Everyone on Earth Could Get Rich: A Space Economy with 16 Psyche’s 700 quadrillion dollars of Value–what a Trump/Ramaswamy Administration Could Start

The other day, I was talking to some very smart, rich, and well-credentialed people, that I thought was the kind of conversation that a lot of other people would benefit from.  The subject was Vivek Ramaswamy, why he should be the V.P. for Trump, and how he has a definite economic plan that will carry over well into 2028.  In the short run, it’s all about BlackRock’s destruction and strengthening the dollar from this global banking cartel of destroying it in favor of globalism, and for America to be great again, we needed to produce around 57 trillion dollars of value to pay off our national debt, and the lingering costs, and then some.  And where on earth were we going to get that kind of wealth?  That’s where things went sideways because I started talking about space.  Now, some of these people are very rich; some were PhDs and had several Master’s Degrees in various fields, from law to engineering, and they didn’t see a way out.  Their wealth had been built off the traditional model of real estate, where three generations watched the value of a property increase proportionally until everything flamed out and people couldn’t afford the new pricing structure.  Then, the economy collapses, and a new country takes over as the key destination.  Globalism has tried to set that scenario up to be China, and corporate communism has bet everything on that eventuality.  But I told them that space was where it was at.  I said we needed a divorce from globalism.  They said we need each other with interdependence; otherwise, everything would fall apart.  I told them that Vivek had an excellent economic plan to undo the work that BlackRock has done to the world and that while that was going on, SpaceX was going to refine its Starship craft so that in a few years, there would be two or three built every week, and they would be launching into space just as fast.  That left them all looking at me and asking why.

A space economy is a new frontier, and people do not yet see the benefits of it.  And I know that SpaceX isn’t just thinking of a space economy that will make America wealthy again.  Under a Trump/Ramaswamy administration, returning to an oil-based economy will solve most of our problems, quickly.  But what about after that?  They didn’t see why we would even go to space because there was nothing there.  Why would Elon Musk want to colonize Mars, the moon, or any place else?  Again, these are all brilliant, rich, and influential people.  And what I was talking about was science fiction to them.  At least until I told them about the asteroid between Mars and Jupiter called 16 Psyche, which has on its 150-mile surface over 700 quadrillion dollars in gold and precious metals.  And that’s just on one asteroid.  The next great gold rush will be in mining companies who can go to these asteroids, which Starship will make the whole experience very easy, and our entire national debt will be gone with a new value economy that the world is not prepared for.  America would be prosperous; and would forever take humanity deep into space with the wealth gained.  Legend has it that the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter used to be the planet Tiamat.  It was abundant in gold, and once it was destroyed, its occupants left and formed colonies on other planets, like Earth.  That is why all Earth cultures worship gold the way they do as a precious metal: because it is the subconscious reaction to the grief we all feel from our lost homeworld.  And that stories of Atlantis, Eden, and the foundations of all Earth cultures spawned from this lost knowledge.  This is about when everyone stopped eating and wondering if what I was saying was the next great thing or the utterances of insanity from someone who has read too many science fiction books. 

But what wasn’t in question was that 16 Psyche was a massive opportunity from a mining perspective.  We need precious metals on Earth for many reasons, not just direct monetary value, and going into space didn’t hurt anybody.  There were no indigenous people to exploit, as is the excuse of the first few gold rushes on Earth, such as the one where Spain raided Central and South America.  Then, in the western expansion, Americans found gold in California and ran through the Indians to get to it.  On 16 Psyche, there are no Indians or Aztecs.  It’s just a destroyed collection of rocks floating around in space.  You must land on them and pick up enough gold and platinum to fuel Earth’s economies for centuries with a few full payloads.  It’s relatively easy, and given the trajectory of SpaceX and their massive Boca Chica plant in Texas, they will have done their part within ten years.  Starship will be like a trucking line, always in space doing something.  To pay for those things, we know right now that there is plenty of gold and other metals of value to cover the costs.  But first, on earth, we have to put down all these Marxist plots meant to rule the world from the perspective of centralized banking and governments of communism to suppress any competition from limited resources.  The plan I was talking about would completely obliterate all those previous assumptions.  So I spoke about a very different future than they had feared, and they were at least listening. 

The key is to have a friendly administration in the White House and that all these fights between political ideologies have it out and destroy those who are holding back the human race.  There are way too many opportunities for the future to get hung up on anything.  And people like Vivek Ramaswamy get it.  He’s the future face of America, and under this next Trump administration, he’ll be able to shape economic policy with the kinds of opportunities in mind that I was talking about, with a space economy.  And many of the miseries we are experiencing today will be long gone tomorrow if we are smart and play our cards right.  The best thing we could all do is use Trump’s celebrity status to put people like Vivek Ramaswamy in a position to free the lost talent deeply suppressed in the global marketplace and expand the human intellect of the planet and into new horizons for good.  And what I was saying was not science fiction, but are the opportunities for tomorrow, today.  The future is not way out there anymore.  We are living it now, and all it will take to uncover it are some bold personality types to unleash the best that human beings can bring to thought.  We see that unleashed at the SpaceX facility in Texas in many ways.  What they are doing and an excellent economic platform for the next Trump administration are opportunities for infinite enthusiasm.  And we will quickly outpace the communist detriments of globalism driven by aristocrats and not dollars and sense.  Their power is wholly based on limited resources to stay in control.  I mentioned to this group that there was so much wealth that every human being on planet Earth could be very wealthy.  And our future would be out there, not right here.  And while that might rattle previous assumptions, it’s right in front of our faces to grab onto.  If only we dare to do so.

All Mobs and Riots Should Be Prosecuted: They are not expressions of ‘free speech,’ but ‘disturbing the peace’

If there is a lesson we should have learned by now, color revolutions don’t just happen.  They are not First Amendment protests protected by the Constitution; they are occurrences of “disturbing the peace” and should be prosecuted—all of them.  The people who advocate for them should be prosecuted to the furthest extent of the law, and their behavior should not be tolerated in the least, especially if they impact the traffic and enjoyment of the life of other people.  Riots in the streets and all mob activity are provoked into action by the kind of communist radicals who want to use discomfort and terrorism to drive a political narrative that people usually wouldn’t choose for themselves, and if left alone, people don’t think such things.  They don’t think to gather and protest some issues under anger and a show of mass force.  People falsely assume that such things are part of the American life, the life of expressing themselves as a democracy, a people who freely rule themselves.  But all those occurrences are violations of the Republic for which we indeed are, and not some flee-bitten socialist country as they have in Europe where the masses are blown upon by hidden powers from the shadows to express their discontent publically, in the form of flash mobs, burnt buildings, overturned cars, and even worse.  We have a representative republic where we vote for our people to run the government.  If we don’t like their job, we can vote them out.  Color revolutions and violent mobs intend to inflict fear, cause work stoppages, and enforce social change through dissatisfied people who want things to happen faster and more radically than our election process allows.  Ultimately, the participants wish for more from the government’s power than just the routine maintenance of their lives from a distance.  They wanted to force the power of government to do some menace, and there was never any good from the communist activity inspired by Karl Marx’s pages. 

Ultimately, the bill for these social enterprises goes straight to the door of some liberal billionaire and has for years, including the first sign of college riots in the 1940s and 1950s.  Even going back to the labor movement of the 1800s, mobs of collective protest would gather together to show their force of collective action against something they wanted to change, and the threat was by a show of force.  The problem is that people do not do these kinds of things by themselves.  A shadowy few always inspire them.  Where do people know where to gather and protest? Who prints the signs and puts up the social media posts?  It’s not the organizers, that is for sure.  It’s the people who blow into their ears who start all these protests, and those whispers come from the political shadows of hostile agents of the American way of life.  It’s not a right or privilege to shut down a highway.  Or block traffic with hundreds or thousands of losers carrying a sign trying to stir the public toward some social issue.  The purpose of the force is to insight fear with the masses to change a law and order society from the logic of contemplative thought.  The goal is to wear down the boldness and resolution of a society based on laws and to change those assumptions into fearful appeasement of the mobs in question.  And those mobs never just happen.  They are provoked, created, and sponsored by domestic enemies of the peace, and it’s time we admit this to ourselves and prosecute the behavior.  And stop assuming we have some ridiculous commitment to the practice because we never learned the nature of civics.  It’s not a First Amendment expression of a free society.  It’s disturbing the peace. 

All those riots that we saw during the Trump administration were planned hostilities intended to commit harm to our nation and its people with a promise of violence.  They didn’t occur organically.  The protests over police brutality and other issues of race had nothing to do with the victims perpetrated by communist revolutionaries who have taken over poor neighborhoods of color and nationality, who function from tempers and not logic. They are an exploited people meant to do the dirty work of hostile terrorists to America in general, and their purpose during Trump’s term, and what they are planning to do this next time, is to use fear to provoke legislation to preserve their liberal world order, not the logic of a free people working together to run a republic.  Riots and mobs intend to replace logic with fear and anxiety and to topple legislation to appease chaos.  All organized mobs are incidents of disturbing the peace and are attempts to overthrow our elected government, and they must be prosecuted to the greatest severity that the law allows.  The riots we saw with Trump came from the communist left; they didn’t organically form out of self-expression.   They were organized to inflict misery on logic and to scare society into supporting communist left causes through default, and it is time we recognize the practice for what it is, going back to all mass protests in America and all other places in the world.  Riots and mobs are made; they don’t form.  People don’t just sit down and plan them.  They are provoked and built into our culture through the communism of Karl Marx’s work in Europe, which the rest of the world adopted, thinking they were expressions of free speech.  They never work out that way; they are disturbances of sovereign people purposely perpetrated to take away those freedoms through the illusion of mass compliance.

We have to talk about this because we’re going to see a lot of desperate Democrats in the months to come.  Not just from all these Supreme Court cases that have not gone in their direction, they will form up mobs to inspire fear in the courts to rule away from the Constitution and for the communist organizers of flash mobs and violent thugs.  And, of course, once they expire all their legal warfare against Trump and the MAGA march continues and grows, they will turn toward the barely masked occurrences of mobs to promise violence to those who surrender their logic to the power of mass social discourse backed by a promise of social unrest.  And that is against the law and is prosecutable.  Just like a bunch of teenage kids can be arrested for playing music too loud in their cars, mobs of losers can be prosecuted for violating the personal rights of thousands of people who find their peace disturbed by hostile agents of doom.  And whores to a social order where minority communist insurgents working from a billionaire status of resources fund these expressions of chaos from the comfort of their offices and living rooms while dumb fools who don’t know any better hit the streets in a show of force thinking because they aren’t brilliant, that they are participating in Constitutional expressions of the First Amendment when in reality they are criminals harming others and their peaceful existence.  And many people from the first Trump term have yet to be punished.  And they are planning all that and more during a second term.  Isn’t it interesting that most riots have disappeared during Biden’s term?  Why do you think that is?

Supreme Court’s Ruling on Bump Stocks: Without unregulated gun ownership, you can’t have a civil society

Here’s the deal, everyone: gun control is not a thing.  Restricting people’s access to guns by government controls is never going to be a thing in America.  The Bump Stock Ban that was initiated by President Trump during his term, as a bone to the communist left, is an excellent example as the Supreme Court ruled against the banning of the device that simulates automatic fire from semi-automatic weapons, as used in the Las Vegas shooting where innocent concert dwellers were pummeled with gunfire, and many were killed needlessly.  Immediately in reaction to the shooting, the communist left was looking for gun control legislation and a rules-based attack on the Second Amendment, and President Trump caved, thinking that if he threw them a bone, they’d be happy and go away.  That is how we have ended up with a lot of dumb laws and legal interpretations over the years and how the communist left has sought to undermine our entire society.  News flash, we don’t want to be like those crappy European countries, or like Australia, New Zealand, or any country that has lots of gun laws and bans on weapons.  It doesn’t surprise me that the Supreme Court voted 6-3 to leave the ban because the Second Amendment isn’t there as a right granted to the public; it’s there to limit the government’s powers over the people.  And we know now, more than ever, that the government is far more dangerous than guns in society.  Without guns, the government spirals out of control detrimentally, and corruption is soon to follow because they don’t fear the people.  The government needs to fear the people they work for.  Without guns, there is no respect because the government has all the power.  Guns are essential to keep all the human temptations toward sinful behavior regulated not out of respect but out of self-preservation.  And that Supreme Court finally gets it, as they are ruling on more issues that are just as logical.

All mass shootings need to be investigated as actions of government involvement.  Much like they did with the Kennedy assassination, where they pick a loner with all kinds of crazy thoughts and steer them through various means toward an action they want done, is a common problem.  The FBI has a lot to answer to, as does the CIA.  They have a lot to explain about the Las Vegas shooter, which they have never bothered with.  They can’t be trusted to order a pizza, let alone investigate mass shootings, which they often have their hands all over, hoping to create mass carnage in hopes that people will be scared into voting for more gun control.  We have seen ruthlessness of all governments, especially in the United States in recent years, that demonstrates a willingness to kill innocent people to advance political narratives.  And when it comes to all mass shootings, most of the time, they are not so spontaneous.  A tip-off trail is usually there for all to see, such as the trans shooter in Nashville.  But nobody ever stops the event from happening, and immediately after the shooting, we have the communist left demanding more gun control as if we could trust a centralized government that was behind such atrocities, such as COVID-19, for instance, with our very lives.  No thanks; we don’t need the government to act like our long-lost parents.  Just build highways, have a military, issue our driver’s licenses, and shut the hell up and mind your own business.  We don’t want kings and aristocrats ruling over us and deciding what we can and cannot have.  And we need guns to make sure the government doesn’t feel like it can get too pushy.  Because when they think people don’t have guns, they always, 100% of the time, abuse their power.

And this Bump Stock thing was a Trump deal, and people were still against it.  Yes, people still support Trump and will happily vote for him again.  But from the beginning, we knew the Supreme Court would rule this way because it’s the only way to rule.  Only an activist court not following the Constitution would think otherwise.  All these other armpit countries out there in the world would do a lot better if they had a set of laws like we do in the United States, with our Constitution.  However, we have a Constitution in America, and the Second Amendment is one of the critical foundations of law that cannot be tampered with.  Bump Stocks and much more must be available to a population to keep the government from getting too far over their skis in grabs for power.  Just because President Trump supported the ban doesn’t mean people unthinkingly follow some leaders.  Trump got it wrong, as he got a lot of things wrong.  He was suckered by the communist left, in much the way that Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates suckered him over the Covid bioweapon.  It wasn’t just January 6th that was an inside job; most public violence is caused by the government, in service to the government, to trick people into giving the government more power.  And when those same people suckered Trump, most of the public understood what was happening.  That’s why we have a Supreme Court, to provide a backstop to much of this unconstitutional insanity by hostile agents of big government loons seeking problems to advance their social menace. 

Philosophically speaking, I don’t think you can have a civil society without a heavily armed public.  The Second Amendment was never meant for hunting.  It was meant to keep humanity’s greed in check as they moved into government positions and had to stave off the temptations to abuse their power.  There has never been an instance in human history where too much power in the hands of government worked out for the people being governed.  The United States was never created to be like other countries; it was meant to be unique, so we have always been reluctant to get involved in other people’s wars.  We are isolationists because the rest of the world is too stupid to push away their governments and demand their freedom from the tyranny of the corrupt.  We’re talking about the same world that killed Socrates for corrupting the youth.  Who conspired to kill Julius Caesar by insurrectionists in the senate.  And conspirators who killed Jesus Christ just for existing.  It’s not an accident that America has the highest GDP in the world; it’s because the government hasn’t been allowed to stop people’s ambitions in life.  And you can bet, without the Second Amendment, that America would be like they tried to make it with Covid, a power-hungry government that would seek to micromanage the whole world and get in the way of everything, and attempt to rule through fear wherever possible.  An unarmed society would be a victim to government under such conditions, and the only reason we have not yet fallen to such a fate is because we have the Second Amendment.  Because there are more guns than people, and the largest army in the world is the private one shared by property ownership by American citizens.  So it’s great that the Supreme Court saw the obvious.  But that’s just the tip of an iceberg of rulings that must be turned the other way because they were created without the Constitution to limit the government’s powers.  And that’s just how it is and will continue to be.

The Communist Left Wants Out: Punishment Old Testament style is coming for them after what they have done to Trump

The communist left has gone too far, and I would look for them to try and find some reason to have a mistrial regarding Trump’s sentencing.  Yes, of course, they want to put him in jail and gain the ability to decide where and when he goes on any campaigning on the final stretch of running for president, which everyone seems so shocked to see; Trump is pulling away from Biden rapidly in current polling, especially in the critical battleground states.  The risk for the communists now is what happens to them when the shoe is on the other foot.  Because they have gone all in and then some to use their power to keep Trump out of the presidency, but if he wins anyway, and authentic “democracy” puts him in office, as they did in 2016, despite all the games and shenanigans, what will happen to them?   I can say that Trump was very nice in not jailing Hillary Clinton.  I said then that Trump should have done it because they would do it to him.  However, Trump wanted to play the high ground and be nice to his political enemies.  But they have not been so kind to him, and have done everything they could to destroy him and his family.  Even members of his administration.  Members of Congress.  The Supreme Court itself.  They have shown every ugly card imaginable, and for what, to arrive at this point in history with the public still picking him when given a choice?  And now they are looking for ways out of the corner they painted themselves into.  Including the judge in the New York case looking for an avenue out indicating a mistrial because once Trump does win in November, and the shoe is on the other foot, the communist left will be vulnerable in ways they never imagined. 

My advice, which many people are asking for these days, big names who do critical jobs and are looking for clarity, is that if you want law and order in society, you must punish those who break the law.  And you have to do it Old Testament style.  None of this Jesus stuff of forgiveness.  We don’t have another three hundred years of Christian persecutions only to finally have the Romans adopt our religion and try to unify the world with the Bible, a selection of stories they picked to build a healthy society from their perspective of social control and domination.  I am a supporter of the books of the Apocrypha to be added to the Septuagint for a complete understanding of God’s story from that period of history.  And Jesus was appealing to those who didn’t want to be fed to the lions themselves.  “Remember, Jesus said to turn the other cheek?  Please don’t hurt us for all we’ve done to you.”  Remember what they did to you and give it back to them and then some.  Punish them viciously and ruthlessly, and don’t be nice about it.  That is my advice to everyone in the wake of what we have caught the communist left doing to our society globally.  And when Trump is in office again, if any form of democratic voting system is allowed to happen, people are going to pick Trump, and then Democrats are going to have to be punished for what they did to not only Trump but America in general.  They have openly plotted the destruction of our country, and they must pay for what they did.  And it doesn’t matter how much pain it causes them.  They should have thought about all that before they did what they did.  And compassion for their pain will only make society worse.  

Merrick Garland has been found in contempt of Congress, the same charge they are putting Steve Bannon in jail for, along with Peter Navarro, who is already there.  These were respected members of the Trump White House.  The communist left may not have liked them, but they were “democratically” picked, so nobody who speaks against that process of society picking their representatives and then working actively to punish their political opponents once they gained office can claim they are working for a “democracy.”  Such hypocrisy only fuels the anger against those advocates for such injustice in the wake of the picks of a free society.  Because, in essence, nothing is free in such a world controlled by totality and ruthless authority.  Essentially erasing the exploits of every war won or fought over time by the depraved menaces of scandal and evil.  For every family who has lost a loved one to war, these antics are spitting on the graves of those lost as a reminder that these forces of destruction are in control of our government and are doing whatever they must to hold that power at every expense.  But in so doing, they have lost any reference to public support, even by people who may have otherwise voted for them by choice.  The disrespect for the very system of government that indicates a government by choice has now had that mask ripped away, and people are poised to vote for Trump to remind Democrats that communism is not the government we are going to put up with.  And our elections still matter.  While the communist left wants to desperately when the sentencing for Trump occurs on July 11th, 2024, throw him in jail and hope revenge never comes to them. 

They started all this, now they are worried about the pay back.

Steve Bannon has to report to jail on the 1st of July, so all these dates match up to a vast conspiracy by a communist government, globalist in its reference but every bit as communist as China currently is.  The judicial goal is to remove the critical pieces of the political chess board during the final stretch of the election and hope the public will let them get away with it with such a show of force.  But unlike China and other places in the world where globalists have put communism into the management of their controlled societies, voting is still somewhat free in America.  They do not have the control they had in 2020 when they stole the election and pushed Trump out of office even though people picked him as their representative.  They still have to pay for that crime.  And COVID still has to be paid for; lots of people in our government killed many people, including many of our loved ones.  There were a lot of terrible things done, and there are lots and lots of people who need to go to jail, and even worse, from what we know, they did.  Let alone what we have yet to discover.  And now that they have gone too far with Navarro, Bannon, and Trump himself, they have only themselves to blame when justice comes looking for them.  Because right now, that’s where people are.  They are going to pick Trump.  And if that doesn’t work, they will resort to more ruthless measures because that is their right, and obligation.  That is why I say, for the sake of all humanity, that Old Testament ruthlessness on the law and order front is the only option.  It is the most humane way to deal with the crimes committed against us all.  Such crimes must be frustrated in the future, and if they aren’t punished, they will be inspired to commit crimes all over again.  And we can’t have that.

Bird Flu is the Next United Nations Bioweapon: We know what they did with Covid, and now the food supply is their next target

We are getting ready to see a level of insanity that has always been a part of the Democrat Party, the communist left, that we’ve never seen before.  They always had the capacity for evil to do what they do, but we will see the worst of them in 2024 as it becomes more evident that they will lose power.  And I say that in the future state because the only way they have gained and held power is through deception in the years leading up to now.  And they can’t maintain that illusion without deception.  So they are losing control and will lose their ability to have power over other people, and the wheels came off during COVID-19.  They went all in with the Chinese bioweapon from Wuhan, sponsored by the United States and a whole list of whores from Bill Gates’ money supply, along with many others, and they killed a lot of people, harmed many others, and ruined all our lives which many are still digging out of.  At this point, more people are willing to admit all that than at any previous point because it’s such an evil concept that most would have never thought it was even possible, even as it was happening.  And that is what the communist left was counting on: people would be slow to recognize the threat, and by the time they did, the world would be functioning from a “New Normal” after the World Economic Forum’s “Great Reset.”  I’ll repeat it now, as I did then, well before the Trump administration figured out what was happening.  Even Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson, and all the other popular talk show hosts hadn’t caught on to it yet early in 2020 when we first heard about the bioweapon virus.  On day one of the COVID-19 virus, I said it was an attack on a scale bigger than Pearl Harbor.  And that was how we should have been looking at it.  So I was always right about Covid, and with that track record, I offer that bit of history so that people won’t be suckered again.

Bird Flu is the next bioweapon that the communist left is planning to use to have a COVID-19 part II.  And, of course, they have no other choice as they watch the world turn away from them by the masses.  I think all this is good because these bad guys needed to be smoked out of society in ways they have always been concealed.  And you can see the trends in the cross tabs of polling that have them in a panic.  More people of color are supporting Trump, for instance, than anybody thought possible.  And it’s not older people; it’s the under-50 crowd, which is a big problem for Democrats.  Also, regarding deportation politics, over 50% of Hispanics support that nationalized measure, which was a surprise to many who thought that once illegal immigrants were here, they would support all their friends and families, too, coming in the same manner.  However, most support enforcing border policy away from the current open border strategy.  The communist left is finding themselves surprised at every turn; things are not turning out as they academically planned, and now their fingers have been caught in all kinds of cookie jars, poisoning the cookies.  They will lose on the world stage, not just in American elections, and things will improve.  But there will be a lot of violence and chaos in the meantime because most of these people are complicit in many crimes and the mass death of millions of people, and they have to be punished.  I think it’s good because, at least finally, people have seen the evil behind the friendly masks, and all this horrible activity has inspired them to act toward justice.

And I would caution you, dear reader, I’ll say the same thing to you now that I told John Boehner when he was Speaker of the House, and he laughed like I was just another local conspiracy theorist, anything from the United Nations and its partners, like the World Economic Forum, and the World Health Organization need to be considered military endeavors.  I was right then, and I’m right now.  It was people like Boehner, my neighbor, who made us vulnerable to these attackers, to begin with.  They represent global communism and are on a military effort to take over the world and destroy the United States with the most powerful weapons the world has ever known: propaganda.  Another act of aggression that people have been slow to act on even when the evidence was abundant.  Everything they propose should be considered hostile to the sovereignty of the United States because they do not intend anything good for our national sovereignty.  And their biggest weapon to date was Covid.  What they did with it was no different than dropping bombs on an enemy city in previous wars to force a country to submit to the new threats of power.  It is what Genghis Khan did as a warlord, what Alexander the Great did to expand the Greek empire, what Nebuchadnezzar did to expand the Persian empire, what England and Hitler did, and what has been behind every attempt at global communism since Karl Marx wrote down his collectivist vision on pages of paper and international unions and secret societies sought to expand those management methods of central force community to community.  COVID was their grand fortissimo of thousands of years of attempting to build an international empire controlled by a few elite dominators.  Only this time, it was disguised by hiding the attackers behind white lab coats and academic institutions.  But the greed and power were no different than what we have seen from the worst tyrants of the entire human race.  And in 2024, it’s the Bird Flu that will be deadlier and more transmissible, and a way to hopefully get away from the punishment for their crimes that is coming their way by killing off those that might have the courage to prosecute them.

The giveaway to the effort is the gain-of-function research that made the Covid virus transmissible to humans when it would typically only be regulated to bats in the Wuhan region.  This is why Dr. Fauci and his subordinates are in so much trouble and deserve to be; they made the virus that was natural–unnaturally transmissible to humans.  And for them, it was an experiment because Covid 19 wasn’t very deadly.  It was a practice run for them and a test to see how the world would react.  They didn’t want to kill everyone, just the elderly and weak, which is precisely what they did.  What they did was another form of mass murder disguised as science and economic tampering.  And they had the governments of the world dancing at their fingertips with billionaire money given loosely to build a compliant team of murderers.  The danger with the Bird Flu is that the attack vector looks to be the food supply of the world, so you can starve the human race and force them to pharmaceutical alternatives.  And by creating such a crisis, they hope to avoid an organized world that will prosecute them for their many past sins.   And you can bet they will try because they have no choice.  They either turn to open mass murder, or they are going to be prosecuted by an angry society for what they have already done.  And before they let go of power, they will do everything they can to use it to save themselves from a world made angry and look for much-justified revenge.

The Failure of Bob Livingston and Newt Gingrich: Once you give up moral authority, you lose it forever

I’ve told the story of meeting Newt Gingrich before and how my wife completely insulted him as he reached out to greet her.  However, the context of current events merits revisitation because clarity has to be made as to why that event occurred in the first place.  We are seeing now why politics has changed, why people feel the way they do about Trump, and how the political left has lost forever a trust they abused recklessly.  And so did Republicans.  It goes back a few years for us, back in the 1990s.  My wife and I were young back then but every bit as involved in politics, and I was deeply involved in the antics of the Clinton administration. When he got in trouble for lying under oath over the Monica Lewinsky affair, we knew we had him dead to rights.  Even carrying around his little Bible wasn’t going to save him.  He was going to be removed from office and even possibly thrown in jail, and at that time, Bill Clinton deserved it.  It would have destroyed the Clinton global initiatives, which opened the door later for Barack Obama’s communism, and would have saved the nation a lot of headaches if only they had destroyed Bill Clinton when they had a chance.  Bob Dole was the head of the Senate, and Newt Gingrich was the Speaker of the House.  Things were poised well for Republicans.  Bill Clinton had done wrong with his affair with legal gymnastics that were not going to save him, and we knew the blood in the water meant the end of the Democrat Party.   But then the mistakes were made, and Slick Willy, as Clinton would be called, and the family name would stay with politics, bringing in an era of mob-style politics in the Democrat Party that has brought our nation to its knees now permeated the next two decades once these mistakes were made.  And those mistakes were and are unforgivable. 

The mistake is old, where outrageous evil thrown in front of Puritans locks them up to action, allowing the evil to grow even more, which is a Saul Alinsky tactic.  The mob and Larry Flynt challenging the Supreme Court on First Amendment rights perpetuated this evil, but it was that kind of time when Bill Clinton was caught in so much scandal for the sexual relationship that he lied about to all of us, under oath, which was the actual crime, had the media come to his defense much the way they had with Larry Flynt on the charges on smut peddling.   The media turned the whole story into a sexual one rather than a legal one, and the entire case moved from a crime to the behavior of two people, in the case of the Clintons, most of Washington D.C., behind closed doors.  That’s when the wheels came off the Republican case, starting with the tough guy Newt Gingrich and his second in command, Bob Livingston.  To defend Clinton, Larry Flynt put up a 1-million-dollar bounty on anybody who had slept with a Republican in Congress and that they would be exploited as hypocrites.  The media story about “it’s just about sex” began to swing the other way unbelievably, and my wife and I watched the Republican Party completely lose on the issue when they had all the moral and legal high ground needed to preserve justice.  It slipped right through their fingers because the head of Congress, Newt Gingrich, had been found out to have had an affair with one of his interns. At the same time, his wife was sick with cancer in the hospital, And his do-gooder second in command, Bob Livingston, had an affair with an intern too, and it was exposed, marking him and other Republicans as forever tarnished. Much of that brand damage still occurs today.  When people wonder why Trump, a guy who has been married three times, is leading the conservative movement, it started with soul searching during these critical years in the 1990s.  

Of course, Bill Clinton got off the hook, and the whole story became about hypocritical Republicans who couldn’t keep their pants on. That’s when the entire RINO movement started, and the party needed to be purged of them.  Newt left office in disgrace.  Bob Livingston had to resign, and he did so to inspire Clinton to do the same.  Of course, Democrats don’t feel guilty about anything.  So the reaction from Clinton was essentially, “I’m good; Hillary likes to watch me have sex.  So go suck on that.”  Hillary enjoyed her husband’s affairs; she controlled him with them the way people who like to have dirt on people love such information.  It was the closest Hillary ever became to being President when she could push her husband around every time he got caught with another woman.  She was herself a sexual deviant.  But she enjoyed the power such knowledge gave her over her husband and president.  So the whole thing came up flat and embarrassing because Republicans couldn’t live up to the lofty image they presented to the public when it counted most.  To this day, it’s much worse, and most people can’t have an opinion on morality because they are out there doing the same embarrassing stuff, and the FBI, CIA, and many members of the media know all about it.  So when it comes time to have an opinion, Republicans can’t express it because many times they are just as dirty as Democrats.

Fast forward about 20 years, and my wife and I talked to Newt Gingrich; I shook his hand and spoke to him a bit.  He’s a brilliant political commentator.  And I can talk to people politely and find something to like about them.  Find some valuable attributes to them that can be used politically.  My wife can’t.  If a person is not authentic, she wants nothing to do with them.  She was still mad at Newt Gingrich and Livingston, who had gone on to become a power lobbyist, indicating that he was a party guy in D.C., not a rock of morality, and my wife couldn’t forgive any of them for compromising the Republican Party.  To her point, we didn’t live that way; why couldn’t Republicans in elected office resist the temptations of the flesh and decadence to keep the party on the moral high ground?  Why give that up for anything?  Yet they did, and she refused to shake Newt’s hand when it was just the three of us at an event, making it very awkward for me.  But I understood my wife’s position, and ultimately she was right.  Many Republicans, even now, cannot speak on moral issues because they are committing violations of the flesh as much as anybody.  And God’s forgiveness isn’t enough to save our country.  That’s a lot of the reason we are in the position we are in now, and so much evil has been allowed to grow.  It’s not enough to have opinions about smaller government and taxes and have a pro-business platform.  You must be a good person to your family, community, and country.  And so many officeholders fall short.  And when they do, my wife and I have never forgiven them.  I have lower expectations of people than she does.  But that doesn’t make her wrong.  If only Livingston and Gingrich could have maintained lofty morality when the temptations of the flesh permeated their conduct, the world would be much better off now.  And we wouldn’t have to fight as hard as we do to undo those sins of the past.  Once you give up your moral authority, you can never get it back, and such authority is needed for running a government, which is missing now.
