The ‘Soylent Green’ Effect: Stepping away from the cannibal medical industry of socialized medicine

Cannibals are common in our past, and present.

My daughter and I were sitting in the backyard of her Liberty Township home and looking at the homes that were all around her property. Most were valued at a million dollars each, and we wondered how all those people could afford those homes.  What jobs could they possibly be doing?  And sadly, the answer is that they mostly all work in the medical industry to some degree.  Many of them are in the sales business, whether selling syringes that cost .35 cents to make to a hospital for $200 or X-ray machines and other medical equipment with massively inflated costs.  The markup in the entire medical profession is extraordinarily high, and nobody cares or does anything about it because the cost of all that waste is covered by health insurance.  So, the two industries feed off each other horrendously inefficiently, making everything cost a fortune.  Most of the Liberty Township, Ohio population currently living in those big homes have incomes that can even think about living in those expensive homes because they work in the medical industry or in insurance, making all that funding possible.  There is no way that kids just getting out of college can afford one of those homes, so what is going to happen next to a country that is already struggling with debt, held down by it in grotesque ways?  Well, that’s when I talked about the miracle of the recent SpaceX flight and the upcoming election win of Trump back into the White House, where many of these medical problems will be the subject of his next administration.  And the Kamala Harris people have been trying to use the health insurance issue as a way to scare people away from Trump because, as they say, the President doesn’t have a plan.  Well, the fix to the medical industry is more capitalism, not this socialized medical model we have today that only exists so that people can profit from the prolonged death of people.  I call it the Soylent Green model if people remember that famous movie with Charlton Heston. 

Soylent Green was a dystopian thriller from 1973 where old people were essentially put in a room upon their death and shown all kinds of heavenly images while they died off to give them comfort.  But the moment they died, their bodies were carted off to be chopped up into pieces and processed into food for society to eat.  That is essentially what our current medical industry is; it’s just an extension of the kind of human sacrifice that is common in all leftist cultures, particularly in the Near East with the ancient Canaanites.  The Aztecs, the Cahokians, and the Maya were killing people everywhere worldwide as part of their cultural belief system.  The consumption of human life is to sustain the up-and-coming lives, whether it be in the belief that gods would make it rain for that society or that the old need to be killed off for the young to eat.  The belief system is as old as time, and we have options as a human race with science as a tool only now.  Lots of options.  Using those same biblical references where God wanted the Israelites to kill off the people of the land of Canaan, it was because they were so wicked that Yahweh was disgusted with them.  And we are faced with the same moral dilemma today.  And many of those biblical characters lived for over 100 years.  In some cases, they lived for nearly a thousand. 

Notice how we haven’t talked about STEM cells in a while.  During the 90s, after Jurassic Park came out, people were always talking about cloning and rebuilding human tissue with stem cells.  The sad truth is that we are dealing with a medical industry that has turned to socialized science to produce a Soylent Green effect, and they don’t want to heal people, they want to feed off them.  They want to prolong their deaths so they can profit off their demise as just a modern form of human sacrifice.  Nobody needs to get sick and die the way we currently do.  But even down to the mortuaries, if we apply the same kind of science to the health of our society, a lot of the people who make fortunes off the death of the elderly will suddenly be out of a job.  We have an economy of death that is built on the notion of human sacrifice, and we don’t have to.  Suppose we applied the exact science that allowed SpaceX to land that excellent Super Heavy Booster on October 13th, 2024. In that case, we can also stop aging and heal people back to their prime selves using technology that allows cells to repair a person instead of gradually depleting them.  And the good news is that with a Trump victory, that is the answer to the health insurance problem.  Why would we continue to throw money at a health insurance industry that charges $200 for a little plastic syringe?  When Kamala Harris says she has a plan to help people pay for their medical costs with socialized Obamacare or Medicaid expansion, what is needed is a medical industry with a lot more capitalism in it and the goal of curing cancer and all aging diseases.  Not to sustain them long enough to live a ten-year life of gradually more medical bills paid for by insurance so that younger people can live in million-dollar homes for a while before they go through the same process.  What our current medical industry is cannibalism and just as stupid as every ancient culture that practiced it, which is the foundation of all liberal thought. 

Here’s the other math problem, and Elon Musk knows this all too well.  At this point, for the big picture, we need as many human beings to live as long of lives as we can get them to, and that is not part of the current health insurance discussion.  There is a belief in that same cannibal liberalism that we need to save the earth from those pesky humans, which is part of a mass killing plan that comes up with Big Pharma and the beliefs of The World Economic Forum.  People need to go away so the earth can live; that’s what people like Bill Gates believe these days.  But what we need is the opposite.  We need more people to live longer to colonize space and survive as a species.  The exact needs were present when the Bible was written by people who needed to survive long enough to carry intelligence to the future.  We are in the same situation now.  We are all there are for now because of low birth rates and the fact that it would take a century to produce the number of people needed for this space fairing enterprise.  And we all need to survive for a lot longer lifespans.  So when Trump is asked what his plan is for health care and he says he will plan to bring more competition to the industry, which a lot of short-term thinkers are terrified of because it will destroy the $200 syringe business, the truth is that we have to entirely scrap the old system and embrace a medical approach that heals people and keeps them working longer, having children longer and living as long as they can to transfer their lifetime achievements to future generations more effectively, directly.  The economy will have to change toward invention and preservation instead of decaying human flesh and profiting off the demise.  But first, we have to have courage, elect Trump, and change our entire society away from the Soylent Green model and toward proper restoration and preservation for thousands of years into the future.

What We Learned From the ILA Strike: We need more automation and robots to do the work that lazy people won’t do

Most things that are wrong in our modern economy is the fault of communism; it’s the process of thinking that comes from the ridiculously stupid philosophy of Karl Marx.  And that’s precisely what the International Longshoremen’s Association was during a recent strike, raw communism.  When it comes to these unions, notice they always start with “international.”  These are not American efforts rooted in capitalism.  They are globalist enterprises.  A few weeks ago, the dockworkers at ports of entry for shipping all along the east coast down into the Gulf along Texas walked off the job, which essentially crippled American infrastructure and it was all over pay.  This forced the shipping companies to throw a lot of money at those losers to prevent a complete halt of our economy, which amounted to an average of 4 dollars per hour for each six-year contract with an opportunity to raise wages by 62% over the life of the contract, which previously had an upward pay scale of $39 per hour or 81K per year.  And that is on straight time.  In truth, many of these people are making 300K per year once they had the overtime before this strike, so these dock workers are getting rich off an extortion racket that is essential to the American infrastructure and economy.  Their malicious timing was to perform this strike while a weak president, Joe Biden, was sleeping on the beach before Trump’s next term. They took advantage of the situation while they could and put everyone at risk with a hostile attack on our supply chain. It was reprehensible on a good day and detrimental in their intent and malice.  Fortunately, people learned pretty quickly what the leaders of the strike were up to; they were living in mansions and were not hurting for money for a job that wasn’t that skilled.  In the vacuum of a communist bubble, they had thought themselves something better than what they were, and they took advantage of America for their benefit, and it’s disgusting. 

I don’t like union workers of any kind on a good day.  I think they are worthless slugs rooted in Marxist ideology and have no place in American society.  I know these days, many union workers are breaking away from their leadership and voting for Trump for president, which makes us all friendly under a big tent of politics these days.  But it doesn’t change what they are.  Trump has successfully dealt with unions as a builder, and if you have a good personality, you can deal with reasonable people. Most of the time, union workers think they are doing right.  They don’t think of themselves as communists or detriments to society.  However, as a mob of insurgents who threatened to take away the need for labor if they didn’t collectively get what they wanted, everything they were was born on the pages of Karl Marx.  I think it should be illegal and punishable with years in jail to walk off a job that is critical to American economic infrastructure.  If I didn’t know the teaching profession was so worthless, I’d associate that field with the same sentiment.  But teacher unions have made themselves worthless with their brand of Democrat politics baked into everything they do, which is useless to a conservative family with children attending a school.  From top to bottom, there is no place for communism in our labor force, and the ILA didn’t care.  They wanted to take advantage of desperate people to extract even more money from the process while political disorder was a raging fire.  And what they did will cost us a lot more money in terms of shipping costs.

I don’t respect these ILA workers or most union jobs.  I have seen firsthand how unions destroy a company, and I have been in many fist fights in parking lots myself for breaking strikes in what they call a SCAB.  I, for the fun of it, made a living breaking strikes, one at a company in Cincinnati called Cincinnati Milacron, which is no longer there because of radicalized unions, and a company that built conveyor belts in the 90s for Amazon, well before anybody knew what Amazon was.  I was never one to join with group behavior, and when I disagreed with the behavior, the union stewards wanted to fight, which they regretted.  Many people from my past are ashamed of what they did and what I did to them, just to put it nicely.  I could tell stories about some of these antics that sometimes got bloody for quite a long time.  So, my hatred for these labor unions runs very deep.  To say I hate them isn’t a strong enough word.  But I do have much experience as a blue-collar worker, and I’ve watched the crane operations at the shipping docks who just went on strike, and I can say that it’s an easy job.  Certainly not worth 300K per year.  I’ve done lots of comparable work with cranes and jigs with very expensive hardware, and while it takes some skill to operate, it’s not worth the kind of money these unions extract for it.  They are only paid so much because companies fear through radicalism that all the workers will collectively leave their jobs and cause a work stoppage.  Even though Trump has successfully dealt with unions, everyone who has dealt with them can’t hide the fact that collective bargaining agreements harm enterprises by making them too expensive or taking too much time to do the task.  And very little good comes from a unionized workforce. 

One of those stories I could tell involved three union stewards who thought they were tough guys and wanted to fight me in an empty parking lot near our plant at 3 PM when the first shift ended.  I guess they didn’t think I’d show up, and let me say politely, they didn’t win.  The whole plant showed up to watch the fight, which was very embarrassing for the union stewards.  And that particular plant, once management figured out that the union couldn’t be dealt with, shut down within six months.  I knew it then, and I know it especially now: unions had no place in America, and they were dying.  And that is certainly true today.  Already, robots could do a much better job than many of the crane operators working these docks, and they never call off work or get sick.  Labor in an economy is always needed, but that labor doesn’t need to be a human.  It needs to be intelligent, and with A.I. these days, they are far more intelligent than these dock worker slugs.  I’ve known them from personal experience, and believe me, if you pay them more than $10 an hour, you are paying them too much.  Unions have made themselves worthless, which is the case with the ILA strike.  It only lasted a few days, but it shouldn’t have happened at all.  I would encourage all those companies involved in shipping to invest in robots for their future work.  And don’t waste your time on these slugs that affect our economy.  There is no reason these days to overpay for labor and to throw money at these people.  The ILA strike broke once people realized how much money these employees made.  America was not sympathetic.  They just wanted their stuff shipped to them to arrive.  Globalism has given these international unions leverage through a monopoly status.  And it’s time we change that, for good, with automation and robotics.

The Biggest Thing to Ever Happen to the Human Race: SpaceX performed perfectly with Starship 5

In many ways, the spectacular Super Heavy Booster catch at the SpaceX facility was more significant than when the Berlin Wall came down.  Much more important, politically, scientifically, and philosophically.   It was an awesome display of what human minds can achieve when unleashed, and to say the least, the door to human colonization of space was just kicked wide open.  On an even larger scale, the pages of Karl Marx might as well have been burnt as the most inefficient system of government management ever created.  Capitalism was and will always be the means of managing people and their finances for the future as this incredible event occurred just a few weeks away from the 2024 election, where essentially those are the two choices: abundant capitalism from a sovereign American market or global communism ran by the United Nations.  Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, gets it.  I was probably the first person in the world, including himself, to see Musk turn hard to Republican elected officials as he had in the past been an enthusiastic supporter of Barack Obama and Biden.  I chronicled his change by the kind of books he was reading and pointed it out well before he seemed to have figured it out.  Communism doesn’t work, and it was overt communism that had been holding back this fantastic event of the launch of Starship 5 from Boca Chica, Texas, and the Starbase there with FAA permits that were holding everything up with massive government bureaucracy.   Once they finally had their permit, under tremendous public pressure, the FAA had no choice really; the SpaceX team launched, for the first time in all history, the largest vehicle ever to go into space and have controlled landings in two different locations precisely over their targets, all automated and coming off without a problem.  The countdown to launch was exact and on point, and we saw what routine spaceflights over the coming years would look like. 

America has a choice to make that is very positive: elect President Trump and get a whole lot more toward a massively expanding economy as what people saw from SpaceX on October 13th, 2024.  As I watched the Super Heavy Booster carry Starship into space to land in the Indian Ocean about an hour later, the giant thing the size of a skyscraper turned around and landed back at the same pad it had just launched from.  It returned to earth to be captured by the Megazilla chopsticks at the launch pad precisely and smoothly.  I first thought that we needed to work out the property rights issue that would arise as we settled into space.  The world is getting ready to go through a gold rush similar to what America experienced during westward expansion, and the governing principle will have to be flamboyant capitalism to pull it all off.  One of the very first things that the new Trump administration will have to do is protect property rights on the Moon and other celestial bodies.  It will have to be American economic standards that the rest of the world will have to live up to because we will be the first to arrive and set up colonies.  Starship will make moving into space a practical reality and an economy that will quickly outperform anything ever done on earth, including coal, oil, railroads, shipping, and telecommunications.  We are talking about trillions and trillions of dollars of economic value.  But it’s not about making money that matters; it’s expanding human intellect, and the only way to do that is to embrace capitalism and human expansion into space.  A lot is about to change for the better because of what SpaceX did.  The personal journey that Elon Musk has made politically, out of necessity, is one that the rest of the world will now have to embrace—especially communist China.

While the FAA and other government regulatory agencies were trying to protect environmental concerns in the cooling system of SpaceX launches, and California announced a ban of any Elon Musk launch into space from their state entirely due to his political beliefs, China is plotting to carry their communist nation into space with very aggressive plans.  So, America must be the first to enter these vast realms and establish the ground rules.  The moon needs to be viewed as another continent in our neighborhood that is about the size of Africa, and humans will inevitably go there and use it as a staging platform for expansion into the solar system.  All the typical political models of the past are suddenly irrelevant, which is evident behind the Trump campaign in America.  So many people have come together under Trump, including Elon Musk, that a new direction for the entire world has just unfolded, and the proof of what is possible was just shown by the Super Heavy rocket that landed precisely at a spaceport like something from a science fiction concept.  Only this wasn’t fiction; it was fact.  Over one hundred years of science fiction and fantasy were being engineered into reality, and an explosion of intellect was thrust onto the world stage.  All past philosophies, except vivacious capitalism, would be inappropriate for embracing these massive changes. 

I’ve been a fan of SpaceX for a long time now, and I cheer them on with each launch. They have achieved some new and fantastic engineering breakthroughs.  But I did not expect that Super Heavy Booster to return to the launch pad to be captured like that.  And to answer everyone catching up, why do they have to capture that rocket with the chopsticks? Well, that’s because the Super Heavy Rocket weighs 250 tons, and it would add too much weight to the craft to have legs on it like they do their Falcon rockets.  (the Falcon rockets are named after the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars, by the way, which demonstrates what impact science fiction can have on making it into science reality)  The chopsticks on Mechazilla (also named after the massive mechanical monster in Godzilla movies) are a means to take that pressure away from the Super Heavy craft and place it back on its launch stand to be refueled and relaunched within hours.  See what’s going on here?  The new Giga factory for Starship there at the Spaceport in Texas is planning to build 1000 Star Ships per year, and launches will go up every day, several times a day, to take massive amounts of payload and people into space to live as a routine part of human existence.  Fueled by science fiction books and movies, the imaginations of many brilliant people have found a home under Elon Musk, and now they need an economic system that can unleash their vast potential.  And communism was never going to be it.  The pressure of performance under the upcoming Trump administration will change the world for the better in ways that most aren’t ready for.  But what SpaceX did on Sunday, the 13th of October, was life-changing.  I would say it was more significant than the moon landing because of what it does to the economy of space.  No longer would countries control the realm of space, but it would be the laws of economic reality, imagination, and ambition.  The human race demands autonomy and freedom to think, contemplate, and invent.  And Starship by SpaceX is the means to achieve the greatness of the human race under the potential of capitalism for thousands of years in the future.  And it all starts with a proven concept, which SpaceX has done.  Now, it needs a political system that can make it happen, and that comes with the election of President Trump.

The Essenes and Ancient Quest for Free Speech: A story as old as time

Another question I get asked all the time is my position on the Jewish people and why I like them so much.  Unfortunately, most people don’t know their history and have their understandings about things defined for them with a modern context, which is usually politically driven and has some bits of globalism in their assumptions.  They have had their understanding of the Jewish people defined by enemies of the Bible and world dictators like what we saw with the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, which tries to lump the Hebrew people into one giant heap of the same-thinking people, and that is wrong.  People say to me, “You love freedom and independence, but then speak out about centralized banking; the Rothschilds are Jewish.  The United Nations created the modern state of Israel; how can you support these tyrannical forces?”  And “that Jews typically vote for Democrats.”  The problem is that even with all the information that is available to people, they just haven’t learned what they need to in life to make proper decisions about things, and for me, it’s all about the Jewish people surviving as the most extended group of people from the past to be able to hold it together long enough to bring us information from the far past.  But even among themselves, fighting and disagreements were prevalent, and if I had been around during the biblical period and happened to be Jewish or been associated with the Jewish people, I would have the most in common with the Essene people of Qumran, the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls.  That band of Jewish rebels flocked into the desert for hundreds of years during the Second Temple Period and isolated themselves from the rest of the world.  They were the Tea Party of that time, where the rest of the Jewish people were more like the RINO Republicans of our present culture.

After Jesus was killed for political reasons, the Jewish people tried to lead a revolt against their Roman controllers, and, around 68 A.D., attacked Jerico to put down the rebellion.  By 70 A.D., Rome attacked Jerusalem to chase down the remaining troublemakers, which is a lot like what we are seeing today with cancel culture trying to put Trump in jail and all the members of his former White House.  But this wasn’t an easy task because, at that time, the Jewish people were divided into three basic categories: the Pharisees, the Sadducees, and, of course, the Essenes.  The Pharisees were, of course, attributed to the plotting to kill Jesus with Jewish manipulation of their Roman overseers, and the situation was getting irritating to the regional governors, which migrated into the rebellion of 70 A.D.  After wiping away the last remnants of Christ and his disciples, the Romans were trying to get control of their empire again which had as its motivations the same priorities as the current Deep State is utilizing against any challengers to their authority.  The only real difference between then and now is that the new empire is globalism because technology has allowed for a power grab that we are currently experiencing.  But in the times of the Roman Empire, everything grew outward from the Mediterranean Sea, which was their prime source of communication.  Modern globalism uses communications systems and modern transportation to spread its intentions beyond regional concerns.  But the effort is essentially the same.  And this is when the Romans destroyed the Second Temple and forced the Jewish rebels to flee for their lives.  That left the Essenes on the outskirts of the desert to flee ahead of the Romans, where they sought refuge at Masada. 

Eventually, the Essenes were pinned down by the Roman army, and before they were massacred atop that mountain fortress, they committed mass suicide, and the rest became history.  The Essenes were a very rebellious group, and they had been fighting with the other Jews for many hundreds of years and thought of them as sell-outs to their Roman overseers.  They refused to be part of the typical Jewish society and spent their time as monks relishing ancient scripture.  And it was they who anticipated that at some point, the world would come for them to implement their destruction, so they wrote the Dead Sea Scrolls and hid them in the caves at Qumran, knowing that was the only way to preserve their culture for the future.  But it’s because of them that we have what we do today.  However, they weren’t willing to associate with the Pharisees and Sadducees as one big happy team.  And thank goodness they preserved their history the way they did because we can learn a lot from their past; it’s all happened before.  And if we don’t want it to happen in the future, we need to do something different.  But just calling the Essenes “Jewish” doesn’t begin to tell the whole story.  They thought of their fellow Jewish brothers and sisters as wrong and evil, and they wrote their work in a style called Apocalyptic, where their fantasies were that God would come along, as stated in the Book of Revelation, and put down all their enemies for their betrayal.  The Essenes hoped to have redemption from their persecutors, so they fled to the desert in the first place.  They weren’t hanging around in the Jewish high society in Jerusalem making goat sacrifices at the Temple.  They were rebels of the rebels waiting in the desert for God to come and crush their enemies.  They left that apocalyptic vision in their various biblical and non-biblical writings for the future to read in the many clay jars that corresponded to the ancient text. 

At that time, the Essenes had no way of knowing that the Greeks would preserve the Old Testament in the form of the Septuagint or that, eventually, the Roman Empire, under the weight of their control, would seek to make Christianity the one religion of the empire.  So, they wrote the Dead Sea Scrolls to preserve their view of the world.  They only validated that the Qumran texts were authentic to what we had come to know as the Bible.  There are historical references and religions from all over the earth, but under no other circumstances do we have such a well-documented period or one that corresponds to what the Dead Sea Scrolls revealed. But at the time, the Essenes were not cooperative Jewish sell-outs.  They were rebels, even considered radicals, along the lines of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ living out in the desert in isolation.  Their commitment to intellect can’t be mistaken.  When the Romans invaded and pushed them to flee to Masada, that was one of the first attempts at mass cancel culture, precisely what we see today.  Except for this time, we aren’t trying to hide on the mountaintops to preserve ourselves or hide our life’s work in the caves of Qumran, so the future remembers us.  We are instead voting for President Trump to put a stop to these evil groups of tyrants who are constantly forming empires and trying to kill people they can’t control.  Only this time, we have our nation to fight back with, which describes the conflict of our times.  I am very thankful to the Jewish people for their history and preservation.  If not for the Essenes, there is a lot we wouldn’t know and learn from.  But because of them, we are fighting for our lives in a way that is the first time in history that the trend favors freedom and not oppression.

‘Melania’: A book review, the power behind the President

I said I couldn’t wait to read Melania Trump’s new book, so when it came out during the first week of October 2024, I read it just for pleasure.  Then, I reread it a few more times for the perspective it was trying to communicate because I think of it as something quite extraordinary.  Not just because it is the hottest-selling book in the world right now but also because it was a well-placed October surprise of its own from the Trump campaign, a brilliant strategy to soften Trump’s image to women and independents.  Without question, the purpose of the book Melania was to be a campaign platform from her perspective to say to the world, “Vote for Donald Trump; if things get a little too crazy, he listens to me.  And you can trust me.”  I believe he does listen to her more than anybody has been led to believe.  I’ve had a chance to meet Melania a few times and have wondered about her marriage to President Trump.  Melania is the same age as my wife, so I understand her background.  My wife was also a model, so I knew what that work was like.  Melania took the business to a new level in high society by modeling in Paris and New York, which put her in contact with one of the world’s most successful people, Donald Trump.  But Trump was the age of my wife’s parents, so it would be weird to have the in-laws over for dinner but to have them be the same age as the husband.  So I, along with everyone else, wondered what there could be for a woman like Melania to have a husband like Trump, given the age difference.  And I’d say that this book, Melania, answered all those questions quite well.  And it said a lot more.  However, she is very optimistic about why she married President Trump when she could have had access to just about any man on earth. What attracted her to Trump is that he is one of the best examples of the power of positive thinking in the world.  And as a couple, that is what brought them together.

When he met Melania, Trump collected beautiful women like baseball cards and lived his best life as a New York high society playboy.  However, at that time, Trump was going through a maturing phase.  That playboy life is good for telling your enemies what a magnificent person you are with beautiful women on your arm to convey the sentiment, but it doesn’t make a very good life partner.  In Melania, Trump saw in her a beautiful woman who was very smart and optimistic and who he could partner with.  She made him better, which is quite evident in the book, as what Melania got out of the relationship is a path to inner peace, as she is very private.  Trump also got someone who was very positive, had never been crushed in life before, and who he could bounce off of in positive ways.  She was not a drag on his active lifestyle but enhanced it.  And that relationship carried over into the White House in very positive ways.  President Trump’s White House was very classy, and because of Melania, she maintained an administration that allowed him to be everywhere all the time and still have a White House that broadcast excellence to all who visited and certainly raised the level of expectation as to what it meant to America. 

Here’s a poll for you. They can’t keep Melania’s book in stock at Target. But they can’t give away Kamala’s or Hillary’s. I took this picture the day of this article and watched this shelf all week. Melania’s has refilled several times. None of the other books moved.

Melania is an immigrant who is very proud to become an American citizen and achieve what she has in life.  What’s unique about a couple like Trump and Melania is that older relationships usually don’t center on the value of being bedmates but on actually helping each other achieve common goals.  Marriage has been so trashed by the vile elements of our present society that very few people in the modern media can relate to what a healthy relationship even looks like.  So they assumed Melania slept her way to the top because she was beautiful.  But that was not the case.  Melania Trump is not just another pretty face.  She’s very classy, sophisticated, independent (fiercely), and she’s brilliant.  And again, knowing she’s the same age as my wife, and I see it in her eyes, Melania is still a rebel fashion model from Slovenia who has always nurtured a spark of defiance that she never put away.  She has raised her son Barron and is now an empty nester with a husband who has been harassed and nearly killed many times now. After the FBI raided her home and invaded her privacy, she decided to be more of an active part of the campaign.  And with a fashion sense for the extraordinary, she waited until now to pitch herself for the White House, to finish what she started in her own right.  The book Melania is a job application, taking readers through her many experiences and asking voters to give her a chance to do much more in a second term, which she wants to do.  Trump isn’t dragging her along.  Melania Trump likes helping people, and now, with a grown son, she is ready to be a mother to America and bring health to a country that could use pure love and care. 

This book was distinctly different as I read Melania, which is put together like many books from former first ladies I have read over the years.  Because Melania is such a unique person, it was interesting to get her report of some of the world’s most extraordinary events, especially in the final year of their first term, from the perspective of the White House, the year of Covid and election fraud where Melania showed that rebel side of herself more than a few times.  By the time you add the assassination attempts against her husband, the lawfare, the impeachments, the January 6th incident, and her first-hand report on most of the influential people around the world, you come away from this book with a real sense of something extraordinary going on in the world.  And Melania Trump, through her good looks and grace, has been able to elevate the human race in ways never before.  It all points back to the power of positive thinking, as represented by Melania Trump’s Be Best initiative.  Melania wants to help the world be better and looks forward to President Trump’s second term in the White House.  She isn’t being drugged into it, but I would say that if not for Melania, President Trump would still be Donald Trump, the entertainment mogul and splashy media personality.  He’d be successful.  But he wouldn’t have ever been president.  Nor would he be trying to do it again.  Melania Trump is the secret sauce in the background with very high standards.  She wants those high standards returned to the United States because she genuinely loves America as an immigrant.  And she wants to bring that love to many people for all the right reasons. Her book, Melania, is an extraordinary collection of thoughts and a strategic necessity for the Trump campaign in the final weeks of a long election journey.  And I can’t recommend it enough.

Its Just Another Communist Trick: Vote No on Issue 1 in Ohio

Probably the most asked question I get is on Issue 1 in Ohio during 2024, the gerrymandering issue proposed by a group called Citizens Not Politicians.  I haven’t heard anybody from any side on that Ohio Constitutional Amendment adequately explain what Issue 1 is.  Maybe they don’t know or are afraid to say it because they might incite inflammatory rhetoric.  I’ve heard countless hours of proposals advocating for Issue 1 and against it, and I suspect that the Citizens Not Politicians group themselves don’t understand what role they are playing in the attempted destruction of America.  People who favor Issue 1 in Ohio during 2024 are the same kind of people who supported the legalization of pot last year and who supported drive-through window abortions after Roe v. Wade went down in flames at the federal level, so that should tell you all you need to know.  However, there is some menacing intent behind Issue 1 that everyone should be talking about, and that is the communist intentions of the proposal, which essentially states that corrupt politicians are gerrymandering electoral constituency to favor one party over the other.  And that this Issue One proposal will make everything more fair in the future.  The accusation is that once they gain power, politicians can keep power by manipulating congressional districts and other boundaries on a map to favor a powerful party. And in Ohio, Republicans have super majorities that don’t look to change anytime soon.  Democrats just aren’t very well-liked in Ohio, and it has nothing to do with gerrymandering, but that they are a terrible party that does not represent what people want.  So the gerrymandering has turned out to be an excuse for the rejection of Democrats in Ohio, and the hope is that if they can redraw some of the districts, more Democrats might have a chance to get into political office. 

So when I say that this whole process is a communist scheme, I mean it in that it’s the philosophy of Karl Marx that has given birth to it, even if the perpetrators have no idea what’s going on. Making things “fairer” sounds nice. After all, we can’t trust those pesky politicians. They are the evil bourgeoise, an aristocratic class of our betters who do everything out of greed and malice.  But in truth, what the Citizens Not Politicians group is proposing is to attack our style of government itself and replace it with another committee of worthless bureaucrats to make decisions about congressional districts under a mask of fairness, but an intention of eroding our representative government in its essential design.  We already have a system that does what they propose to do: elections.  And they are blaming Republicans for the lack of Democrats in elected positions because people don’t want what the Democrats are offering.  But to avoid that issue, the Citizens Not Politicians are offering a 15-member committee of 5 Democrats, 5 Republicans, and 5 Independents to make the decisions our elected representatives should be making.   And, of course, when they try to make it appear fair by including Republicans, they aren’t talking about MAGA Republicans, as the trend is pointing, but Liz Cheney types and soft-shelled tacos like John Kasich.  What is being proposed by Issue 1 is ridiculous and a blatant attempt to change our representative style of government to benefit insurgent personalities who can use just another worthless committee to weaken our constitutions at the state and federal levels. 

I will vote no on Issue 1 in Ohio.  You must always be suspicious of any government activity that proposes more government to solve the problem, and in this case, why would we add 15 more people to perform a task that our elected representatives were elected to perform because we can’t trust them to do the job?  If you don’t like the job your politicians are doing for you, then vote them out of office.  But look here what is really behind this gerrymandering strategy. In that case, the real issue is a political platform that people rejected with their vote, which is how Republicans got so much power in the statehouse to begin with.  That is the nature of politics: to gain and stay in control.  Democrats are looking for a way to erode that power without trying to win over voters to their terrible position.  So that is what is behind Issue 1 and the intentions of Citizens Not Politicians, who publicly state that they are bipartisan.  When, in fact, their intentions are straight from the pages of Karl Marx and would be more suited in communist China than in a freedom-loving America.  When the word “fairness” gets tossed around, it is always the word “communism” because, essentially, it’s the same trick they use in China to sell communism to the public, such as in “The People’s Republic of China” where it is stated that communism is for the people, not those craving centralized government.  In the case of Ohio, the goal is to weaken our representative government and put people in charge under the mask of fairness to erode the power that people have elected into place because of their preferred Republican policies over Democrat monstrosities.  The desire for government to grow is the entire point of Issue 1 in Ohio and to weaken our constitution along the way.

I hate to be that guy who is pointing out communism these days behind every darkened hallway, but that’s what it is.  Chinese communism is the strategy of the globalist world, and it is intended for every corner of the globe.  And because it’s a big no, no word in America, they disguise it with names like Citizens Not Politicians, to make it sound like something else.  But what it is is garbage, maliciousness, and an attack against our constitutional republic and representative government as it was intended.  If people want to win more seats, then win more honest elections and stop trying to rig them in all kinds of ways to put communists in power in ways that the elected government would prevent.  For the bad guys, it’s far easier to control five Republicans on a committee than the randomness of hundreds of politicians who are always coming and going.  The Citizens Not Politicians group wants to put the gerrymandering issue into the same approach we have on our state school boards, and we’ve seen what a failure that has been.  What Issue 1 offers is just as stupid.  But what’s worse is their intent and willingness to lie to themselves and everyone else about what they want.  They are crying for communism and a big nanny state where the government becomes the parental role of society.  The message here is that those mean, greedy politicians are out of control, and the “people” need to take back control over them with another worthless committee.  Ignoring that we elect those politicians in the first place, why do we need another committee?  See the problem?  And the intention.  All communist insurrections start this way by making it sound like “the people” are taking back their government from the greedy politicians of the aristocracy.  And some people are too stupid to know better.  But we set up our government with this whole decentralization of government in mind, where elected representatives “represent” the people.  And that is the trick at play here; the bad guys are pretending to represent the people when the people were always in control.  And they picked Republican supermajorities.  And Democrats have no answer, so they are supporting Issue 1 to erode our constitutional system, which is yet another grab for power and an expansion of government toward perpetual ineffectiveness so that people eventually will give up on it altogether and fall to the whims of communism and the skirts of a jealous, government mother.

Bernie Moreno is Up 2 Points Against the Diabolical Sherrod Brown: The Senate Republicans are poised to win control

The last time I spoke to Bernie Moreno, a few weeks ago, he felt he had his campaign for the Ohio senate seat against long-time Senator Sherrod Brown well under control.  And regarding ad buys, you can’t turn on the TV or the internet without getting bombarded with a positive Bernie Moreno ad.  Bernie and his team are indeed working hard, which is what he told me way back in September of last year, way before this election of 2024.  I had just stepped off a plane from Japan and privately sat with Bernie and his people about this upcoming election.  At the time, I wasn’t convinced that Bernie Moreno would be able to beat Sherrod Brown, let alone win in a three-way race with two other Republicans in an upcoming primary.  At that time, I supported Frank LaRose.  But after many questions and measuring how Bernie Moreno answered those questions, I became a supporter. Now, here we are a year later, and most of the polling shows Bernie overtaking Sherrod Brown by two points, which is quite a feat in and of itself.  Bernie Moreno has essentially done everything he told me he would do at that little dinner, and I’m very happy about it.  I’ve wanted to see someone knock off Sherrod Brown in an election for a long time, and now someone is poised to do it.  Sherrod Brown has held that senate seat for over 30 years, and his voting record is among the worst progressives in government.  However, he was very popular among the labor unions until the past couple of years when Trump broke that wall in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan due to the massive letdowns in the car industry and the Biden EV mandates.  The unions have pulled away from supporting Sherrod Brown, and now there is a real vulnerability to losing his seat from Bernie Moreno, who is looking great for election day.

Again, we don’t want to take anything for granted when we talk about polling.  But it’s much better right now to be Bernie Moreno than Sherrod Brown.  Brown would be in a prevent defense if this were a football game, hoping to hang on to a lead.  Bernie Moreno is the hot-handed quarterback who can’t miss and is driving down the field to score a last-minute field goal with no time on the clock to win the game.  One thing that impressed me at that dinner a year ago was that he told me weeks before it happened that Don Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle would endorse him and that he was friends with them.  That I thought was astonishing because one thing the Trumps are, they don’t have a lot of tolerance for losers.  And to have personal affiliations as dinner friends means they didn’t think of Bernie Moreno as anything but a winner.  So that was impressive.  And Bernie also told me that Charlie Kirk and J.D. Vance would endorse him, which impressed me even more.  And now, over the last year, I have watched J.D. Vance personally put his arm around Bernie to carry him with direct support.  I’ve seen J.D. Vance and Bernie Moreno together many times since, and things have been lining up nicely for a major upset in the Ohio Senate race.  To make matters even better, Trump has not had to come to Ohio to defend himself or Bernie because the internals show that Bernie Moreno is well positioned to win, which Trump personally cares about.  That he hasn’t had to do many Ohio rallies says a lot about how good the Bernie Moreno ground game has been. 

The math works, as I have said about the Trump campaign nationally.  It will all come down to voter engagement and Democrats; all Democrats would have a hard time showing their numbers in 2020 this time around.  There aren’t that many voters out there who can do what they did to beat Trump the last time.  I’ve said since then just about every day that the Democrats cheated with mail-in ballots, and their loose COVID rules at the time allowed for the introduction of mass chaos, which they exploited to win several races across the country and push Trump out of the White House.  But now they have a problem, they have to at least perform at the 2020 levels.  Trump can; his voter engagement is excellent; we know at least 75 million people across the country will show up to vote for Trump.  In Ohio, Trump is somewhere around +8 in head-to-head polling. This means voter engagement for a much more exciting candidate will increase.  In most cases, people who show up to vote for Trump are also going to vote for Bernie Moreno.  Even Democrats who typically would vote for Sherrod Brown will likely cross over and vote for Trump and, subsequently, Bernie Moreno.  There won’t be many who will vote for Trump but then Sherrod Brown.  Because Brown is associated with Kamala Harris and Joe Biden by default, the union vote is peeling away toward all Republicans. 

During that nice dinner with Bernie and my head clear from travel in Japan, where I could step away from the American news cycle enough to see things with the big picture, we talked about this EV mandate issue that Sherrod Brown had been affiliated with.  And a year later, the results are pretty obvious.  The EV mandates were a killer for Brown; he didn’t try to protect Ohio jobs from an overreaching Joe Biden administration.  They thought they would never have to win another election at the time, and Brown got caught up in the hype.  And here was Bernie to break him by winning a race with Trump supporting the heavy lifting.  And the whole way, because of his relationship with Don Jr. and the future Vice President of the United States, J.D. Vance, Bernie has worked his ass off.  He has been great on the campaign trail, so things look great for him to win.  To be two points ahead, but even better, to be on the plus side of the engagement gap, show Bernie is well positioned on election day to beat Sherrod Brown.  People still need to vote in vast quantities, at least as they did in 2020.  But if they do, Republicans, not just in Ohio but all over the country, are going to destroy Democrats.  Because they cheated in 2020 with mail-in ballots, they won’t be able to duplicate that effort again.  Too many people are paying attention this time to get their total vote count much higher than in the 60 million range.  Essentially, at this point, for Democrats, it becomes a math problem, and they don’t have enough heads for the math.  As things look, Republicans can pick up 13 senate seats added to the 38 that are not up for reelection this time, putting them at 51, gaining control.  And Bernie Moreno is poised to be one of them and to bring with him support of the Trump platform in spectacular ways that seemed impossible a year ago, but now, he is poised to do great things just as he told me he would do way back then.  What I have learned about Bernie Moreno is that he keeps his word and does what he promises.  And I can’t wait for him to be Senator Moreno with a solid majority.

The Astonishing Trump Rally at Butler, Pennsylvania: Christopher Macchio gave the MAGA movement a soundtrack

It’s been a few days since the event, but I think it was one of the most pivotal events in all political history, President Trump’s return to Butler, Pennsylvania, where an assassin tried to kill him and almost succeeded.  Shots were projected, and people were hurt in the crowd, and a person died.  It was serious stuff, and in this overly litigious world where the safety nazis are ruining everything with a mind-numbing existence of compliance to the authoritative experts of the world, it just doesn’t happen where tragedy is overcome by dramatic optimism.  But that was the message Trump brought with him for this return to the site on July 13th, 2024.  For Trump to return to the scene of the crime and dominate it with an optimistic speech that was attended by a larger group than before was breathtaking.  This second speech on October 5th, 2024, was something America needed to see, and it was probably expressed best by Elon Musk, who attended and spoke, jumping around on stage like a little boy happy to go to a baseball game with his father.  There was an innocence to the wealthiest man in the world and one of the most successful acting like a young kid happy about the future.  It was a sincere moment that history will never forget and Trump set it all up by returning to a place of doom with an optimism very few people in the world could ever hope to achieve.  Yet that is what Trump has been offering: a way to defeat the machine of communism that is present in our current captured government and to rise above it by pushing fear aside and leading the world back to health.  But in the wake of it all, there are a few things to think about that are unique and life-changing and that everyone should be aware of. 

First of all, the crowd defied modern conventions.  It was like the day of the assassination attempt, with bullets flying around everyone, and nobody knew where the shots were coming from or even how many shooters there were.  Essentially, in the middle of a large crowd, there was a shootout because a well-placed sniper did get the shot off that killed the assassin.  People in the audience were hit and killed, and there was blood everywhere.  It was a significant tragedy.  But the Trump supporters didn’t run from the area like a bunch of cowards.  Instead, they ducked, they looked around, and they remained calm.  This is a reaction that years of Hollywood productions by skinny pants losers from Santa Monica screenwriting don’t understand about real Americans.  Not the latte-sipping sissies of Democrat areas, but the meat and potatoes people from the flyover states who aren’t afraid of their own shadow.  People under fire weren’t cowards and did not leave Trump’s side when, at that time, they had to assume he was killed.  Elon Musk was watching from afar and had the same reaction that everyone else did once Trump stood up and pumped his fist to the sky, saying fight, fight, fight with blood running down his face in defiance of the killer’s intentions.  That is the American spirit, and it was at that moment, Elon Musk decided to endorse President Trump, which was something I didn’t think would ever happen.  Given that Musk is a Democrat and had been trending toward Republicans over the last few years, supporting Ron DeSantis early in the process.  Trump’s courage under fire and real danger inspired Musk and many others to join the effort to reelect the president, which was a story that Musk retold while on stage to a captivated audience. 

But knowing what happened the first time, why would people want to come back and stand in line for more than 24 hours only to hear the same speech repeatedly?  Why would people even want to risk their lives to attend an outside rally where there are people who want to kill Trump, and they might be killed themselves in the process?  This was like having people return to the Kennedy assassination after it had happened and give a motivational speech about America from the spot of the killing.  What would provoke people to want to do such a thing?  Most people, including conservative commentators, had no idea how to answer that question.  Yet the rally had people there, many more than the previous time in July, as far as the eye could see.  People wanted to be there and tried to put danger on notice.  They were not going to be afraid.  They wanted to support Trump, be near him, and be a part of history, which was a magnificent occasion after all that has happened over the last several years.  The event was live-streamed to over 5 million people on social media, but millions would see it and witness a unique historical event in the days that followed.  The plans for America’s demise were failing, and people could feel it in the air. They wanted to play their part in recapturing our country from the clutches of vile globalism.  It was more of a military occasion without the bullets flying toward an enemy, but the impression was the same.  If global communism ruled with fear, these people defied that intention by attending and participating in that rally. 

However, Trump understood that he had brought something new to his typical rally format before the rally started.  He invited the noted tenor Christopher Macchio to perform before and after the speech in a display that I thought was jaw-dropping audacious.  And for Trump to flex that celebrity muscle then was ominously bold.  Macchio has performed for Trump before, most recently at the RNC event in Wisconsin, but again at the White House.  However, for Macchio to perform at the Butler, Pennsylvania Trump rally was a touch of class that could only come from the Trump Organization as a statement.  It was a statement that wasn’t needed, yet Macchio brought opera to a culture that doesn’t usually get exposed to that kind of thing.  And Macchio performed several songs after the rally; once the typical YMCA song ended with Trump dancing on stage, Christopher sang “Nessun Dorma,” “How Great Thou Art,” and “Hallelujah” to a stunned crowd.  I was stunned.  I thought it was incredibly classy and bold.  Obviously, like Musk, this very talented and rare individual and a top New York celebrity was full-throated in support of Trump.  Christopher Macchio was jumping around on stage in his own way with a compelling performance that was cheerleading Americans in the ways of the Power of Positive Thinking to overcome years of massive tragedy and to restore America to health in ways that people are just now coming to understand.  That was essentially what Trump was offering with this rally: not just returning to the spot to overcome the attempted fear but also overcoming it and overwhelming it by laughing at danger, even dancing on top of it.  But boldly, we continue our triumph over evil the way only opera as an art form could even be conceived.  Yet there it was, and now the MAGA movement had a soundtrack to march to, to take back our country from those who have been stealing it away for a long time.  Now, there was music to give life to the movement captured so wonderfully by Christopher Macchio.  And the world will never be the same.

A DARPA Weapon Hitting Trump Zones: Would the government want to kill innocent people–the evidence says yes

I’ve seen what a category 3 or 4 hurricane can do inland, a hundred miles or so from where they hit. One of my many job experiences was working as a clean-up person when Hurricane Fran destroyed Wilmington, North Carolina. I flew into Raleigh, Durham, and the University of North Carolina to clean everything up.  I personally love Tampa Bay.  I love the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the city quite a lot.  My wife and I have great memories there.  And a direct hit by a hurricane like what Hurricane Milton is poising to do is just terrible.  Now, I’m not typically skeptical of hurricanes.  But I am of this one, Milton.  The way it went from an obscure tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico and quickly jumped up to a category 5 in a very short time to travel east from a west position is highly unusual and has prompted a lot of people to wonder if this particular hurricane, as well as the previous one that just hit Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee, is a DARPA weapon, I have to reply that I think there is a lot of evidence to that suspicion.  Our first act is to investigate the DARPA program and see if we don’t have there, as we have discovered at the head of the FBI, a lot of anti-Trump activists who have their hands on such a terrible weapon and would use it to punish people they know will be Trump voters.  There would be no greater election tampering than to frustrate potential voters and completely wipe out their infrastructure and their homes in general.  And that is what looks to be happening in Tampa.  Kamala Harris will not do well along the coast of Florida; those are Trump voters.  And three weeks before the election, they will be wiped out.  I’ve seen too much in life to think that these are all coincidences. 

So, let’s prioritize answering the first question. With cloud seeding technology, could DARPA or some other scandalous government enterprise create hurricanes to level 5? I would say yes.  Hurricanes traditionally come from the coast of Africa and, under certain conditions, form hurricanes just as they have for thousands of years.  But maybe over the last 20 years, especially the last 10, plenty of technology could agitate those hurricane conditions when they are forming under human control of their growth.  It takes a lot of energy to make a hurricane, but if you’ve ever made a whirlpool in an above-ground circular pool, you have seen how manipulating the flow of the water quickly can multiply the force into a massive effort.  By heating elements of the upper atmosphere where hurricane conditions are close, warm water in the gulf and cool nights in the atmosphere, hurricane conditions should be able to be manufactured with a push by human hands.  To me, this one, Milton, looks like the election fraud of 2020.  It was made by desperate people motivated by politics to punish an area that is poised to vote for Trump ahead of an election that is quickly getting away from Kamala Harris.  If you study the weather for an extended period, these two hurricanes that have hit so close to each other in Florida look politically motivated and not a natural disaster.  But how can we say such a thing?  The evidence says we should consider such a terrible thing a reality.  And by the way, the government reacted to Hurricane Helena destroying so much Trump country and wiping out Ashville, North Carolina, with the complete lack of FEMA support, something very fishy has been emerging. 

It sounds like science fiction, but we must be cautious of a government that builds technology under a cloak of secrecy and then uses it to drive political motivations.  And I’m not talking about hurricanes now; I’m referring to COVID-19, created in a lab in Wuhan, China, for a bioweapon made for globalism and unleashed in an election year to impact global politics.  We know that was the case because the evidence has been uncovered, and people are still trying to wrap their minds around such an evil intention.  Could people work in our government, at the DOD precisely, and with Dr. Fauci knowing all about it and Bill Gates being involved who wants a zero energy world, would they kill people with a purposeful bioweapon?  And the answer is yes.  They did.  COVID-19 is a case that still needs to be prosecuted for what many people did to purposefully kill people for political reasons of control over mass populations.  Most of the people involved are radical communists, socialists, and American globalists trying to tip the scales of the economy toward a Great Reset by the World Economic Forum, governed by the United Nations.  And while that might sound like the plot of some menace from Atlas Shrugged or the main villain in the first Star Wars movie, it’s a real thing that was so vastly evil that it has remained hidden from people who can’t imagine anybody being that terrible.  But that is part of the disguise.  The only reason that Covid has not yet been prosecuted is because people just can’t imagine that humans could make such a thing to kill other humans.  And that any part of a government would be that malicious. 

But then you see how the government reacted with FEMA in a known Bible Belt town of west North Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee where the people are Trump-supporting Appolacians.  FEMA didn’t rush to rescue anybody when hit by a devastating hurricane.  And Kamala Harris was slow to make a campaign stop, which was bizarre behavior for a state she supposedly wants to win.  We saw from the Biden administration a strange disconnect on one of the most devastating tragedies in modern times.  And the government was happy to let people rot without services for maximum impact.  And then things start adding up.  And on the heels of all that, another hurricane was brewed up in the Gulf and sent to one of the country’s most populated and economically prosperous areas, Tampa Bay, Disney World in Orlando, and the space coast between Cocoa Beach and Daytona Beach.  So when asked if I think DARPA could be behind these hurricanes, I think it’s very possible.  We certainly know that the intent to harm Trump regions is there and that radicals in government with their hands on such weapons, as with Covid, will use those weapons for political reasons if they kill a lot of people and cause billions of dollars in damages.  They certainly didn’t care. When COVID was unleashed, the global economy was shut down, and millions of people died from the gain of function virus that was made to transmit from animals to humans artificially.  The same could be said of hurricanes; they exist but can be tampered with to be made worse and to act purposefully rather than randomly.  And that these devastating occurrences are more than accidental.  They are purposeful and yet more evidence of a government that has become weaponized and dangerous.  This Hurricane Milton is, for many, a loss much more significant than the damage it will do.  It has irreparably damaged people’s trust in these fields of science, which are only exacerbated by the vast disappointments left in the wake of COVID-19.  But that is what we are dealing with in these people.  These are truly evil people, and they cannot have access to these kinds of weapons.  Because they are in political turmoil, they will use them to attempt to change the world or punish those standing in their way.  And no matter what damage it causes, they don’t care.  And before we do any cleanup in Florida in the wake of these storms, we should investigate DARPA and their affiliates for whatever actions were taken ahead of these storms and deal with the true menace as the root cause.

The FAA Has Held Up SpaceX Too Long: Government is holding the human race back from going to Mars

Just a little memo for everyone out there, especially those who thought compliance with government authority was going to be the future trend, they were wrong.  I’ve listened to complete idiots tell me for more than two decades now that compliance with government authority was only going to increase year by year, and I have argued with them to the contrary.  COVID destroyed people’s tolerance for government pinheads forever.  Government power had been abused, and people were finally pushed too far.  And that’s why Elon Musk was on stage with President Trump in Pennsylvania, cheerleading on a Republican administration that promises to cut down on government red tape dramatically.  Musk is not a Republican or a conservative.  However, the FAA process denying him approved applications for his next space flights for Starship 5 has pushed him into Trump’s corner.  Just as they have with many Democrats who have now crossed over and joined supporting Trump, a common theme has emerged.  The government has become too big and has all the wrong values, and people are tired of interrupting their lives needlessly.  That is certainly the case with Elon Musk, who has to file a lot of permits for the launch of each of his Starships which he is working through his company, SpaceX, to prove the landing of the largest vehicle to ever enter space and return to earth.  What the Starship 5 mission proves to do is re-land the Super Heavy Booster rocket back at Boca Chica with their chopstick system.  From there, refueling and reentry into space will become a common occurrence.  But first, SpaceX has to stick the landing of the Superheavy rocket to prove the whole capture system works.  So, there is a lot of urgency to increase the innovation rate to meet the missions’ needs because Starship is a key to NASA’s programs of returning to the moon, and this application process with the government is holding everything up needlessly. 

To make matters worse, and to my point, you can’t put the heads of lazy people in compliance authority to the genuinely heroic efforts of manufacturing.  It was never a math problem that would work, and Elon Musk has tried to play nice his whole life.  And the Federal Aviation Association did pretty well with SpaceX until the second part of 2024 when Elon Musk formally endorsed Trump for president.  Two iconic photos tell the complete story of the 2024 election cycle and precisely, this problem.  The first is the attempted assassination of President Trump, where he is pumping his fist in the air with blood running down his face after just being shot in the head.  Within moments of that picture hitting the public, Elon Musk formally endorsed President Trump for president, stepping away from years of supporting Democrats such as Joe Biden and Barack Obama.  Elon Musk is hardly a conservative.  But then again, neither is President Trump traditionally.  But what they all have in common is the difficulty in dealing with government bureaucracy where entire groups of worthless people get mall cop authority over the titans of industry with the stroke of a pen.  From there, the FAA stopped approving Musk’s applications for SpaceX flights, as if to punish him for supporting President Trump in any fashion.  It all essentially started with that photo of Trump right after the assassination attempt, which has backfired massively in the intention of getting rid of Trump.  Instead, it solidified him into the world’s consciousness in ways no political campaign could have done otherwise. 

The other photo to come out of all this is when Trump returned to Butler, Pennsylvania, to finish what he started, which was interrupted by that assassination attempt.  This time, Elon Musk came on stage to speak on behalf of President Trump.   And Trump was in the picture standing at the podium calm and resolute, in the same spot where an assassin’s bullet had narrowly missed him just a few months earlier.  And there he was, standing boldly to the possibility of death.  Elon Musk, the wealthiest man in the world and one of the smartest who has declared himself to the task of carrying human civilization to space to colonize other planets, was jumping around on the stage like a little kid, excited about being there.  The picture that was instantly famous is of Musk jumping in the air with joy at the prospect of Trump winning and deregulating his industry to the point where it has crippled his efforts in a way government pinheads only can.  The joy is evident on Elon Musk’s face, the empowerment of taking back the government from the hands of the truly terrible, the people who are worthless in life and have only defined themselves as demanding that good people adhere to some government mob. Otherwise, punishment will follow.  If you look across the world, especially across the regulatory industry, this communist push to make centralized government appeased has gone too far.  And now there was proof that even the friendly and compliant Elon Musk would be punished if he didn’t support the tyrannical mob in government to the point that they would stonewall the permit process for his life’s work.  That is why you can never give the government too much power over you; they always abuse it.

We’re not talking about making the world unsafe.  There will always be a need for the government to provide some regulatory bumpers to hazardous conduct.  However, the lesson everyone has had to learn is that capitalist practices are a far better regulator than government pinheads.  Market conditions are far more potent because failure has a more significant impact than some regulatory committees.  The case of the FAA holding up the next Starship flight has to do with concerns over the water system used for fire suppression having an environmental impact on the local wildlife.  People have had it with this EPA argument.  The earth serves humanity’s needs, not limit them to appeasement like a bunch of primitives sitting around a campfire throwing sticks at every noise in the dark.  And that is what the government has been offering with its ridiculous rules centered around EPA concerns, which has just turned out to be a cover story for outright communism.  And the mob mentality of the government these days who put their political opponents in jail and deny permits as punishment to those who don’t support them politically.  Over the last four years, Biden has pushed too far and tyrannically, and his relationship with a former supporter, Elon Musk, has shattered.  Musk was so happy about the revelation that he was glad to be on stage with Trump and put his entire support behind electing the President back into office so that he could get his company, SpaceX, moving again and not sitting around like a bunch of idiots waiting for the FAA to approve their launch application.  If the permit process for these launches takes more than a few hours, it’s too long.  And that holds in every industry.  More compliance to senseless mobs of government power is not the wave of the future—quite the opposite.  When Trump wins, he will put Musk in charge of improving the government’s work, including the ridiculous permit process holding SpaceX back.  Elon Musk will finally be able to solve that problem directly.  And he is jumping for joy, literally.  And who will there be to blame in the end, the government that pushed too much and too far to advance tyranny and compliance to a bunch of worthless people who should have never been part of the process, to begin with?  They will only be able to blame themselves for what they did.
