Public Schools Are Going To Lose on EdChoice: Free legal advice on how to beat this case in court

In early May of 2025, oral arguments for the joint lawsuit by over 300 affiliates attached to public education funding made their pitch for why school vouchers harmed them and needed to be made unconstitutional.  Lakota schools in my district have recently joined this lawsuit with some horrendous legal advice from their counsel, but here’s the deal, and it’s quite clear after listening to the plaintive side of the case.  I had friends who went to provide testimony for the defense, for the position of the state to continue with the expansion of the school voucher program, in this case specifically, EdChoice.  I don’t think there was any question going into it how it was going to evolve.  But the position of the presenters, the public school argument, was incredibly weak.  Pathetically weak, and I guess you would expect them to be better prepared.  Here’s the deal: Public schools have left people wanting something better because they have performed terribly over a long period.  And parents want choices for their kids.  We’re not talking about not having education here.  We are talking about better education made that way through competition.  These pathetic public schools run by these ridiculously lazy teacher unions have destroyed the public education prospect as it was initially conceived.  Because most parents need the free babysitting service, they hold their noses and just put up with it.  But increasingly, parents don’t want to send their kids to public schools, and they want access to private schools, so they look for options like EdChoice to do so.  For many parents who currently send their kids to private schools, the system is really unfair to them.  They already pay property taxes to a local school attached to their zip code, and the full tuition for the private alternative.  Now, more people want the same option; they only wish that the tax money they pour into the system would be used to help give them an option instead of wasting it on a poorly managed local school they have no choice in.  Other than picking up and moving somewhere else.  It’s an evil system that is in deep need of reform. 

This is a common occurrence in public education institutions, and is why in Ohio, they can’t meet the ‘efficiency’ standard. This is a recent case out of state, but shows the system itself is broken and Ohio has plenty of their own cases.

I’m happy to do it. I usually do it twenty times a week for somebody somewhere, and I’ll give everyone some free legal work in this case.  This is an easy case without much drama because of the wording in the Ohio Constitution, which I think is a remarkable document.  I love the Ohio Constitution.  For fun, I read it at least once a week.  But for the plaintiffs in this EdChoice case, they are way off the rails on their argument.  And for the defense, here is how you win this case with an end zone dance.  The Ohio Constitution from 1851 says, “the General Assembly shall make such provisions, by taxation, or otherwise, as with the income arising from the school trust fund, will secure a thorough and efficient system of common schools throughout the state; but no religious or other sect, or sects, shall ever have any exclusive right to, or control of, any part of the school funds of this state.”  The problem with the teacher union-run public schools with an operating management system straight off the pages of the Democrat Party is that they have let their costs get away from them, and that nobody manages the efficiency of the product they produce, no matter how you manage “efficiency.”  We could measure efficiency by the output, student quality, and ability to navigate adult lives.  Or get jobs that they are well prepared for.  Or we can measure efficiency by the cost per pupil, how much money it takes to produce a good student, “efficiently.”  In all the cases, the public school presentation of their point of view falls short because of the wording, “efficiency.”  They want and expect an exclusive monopoly of state funds, which has caused them to be wildly inefficient.  And it is in this failure that there is a court case at all.  Public schools, six at this Columbus hearing, but a lot more in the background, are trying to stave off what they caused for themselves. 

People want choice from the public school system because it has proven itself to be incredibly inefficient in allocating funds to the proper education of Ohio students.  So the burden of proof in this case is on the plaintiffs to show how they have presented an efficient product worthy of state money, rather than their assumption that they are promised state money just for existing.  They have not met the minimum Constitutional threshold for their base argument.  That’s why the Supreme Court has found the Ohio school funding model unconstitutional up to this point and why it has lingered in indecision.  That word “efficiency” is a real problem for how public education evolved, and the writers were wise to put it there.  You could also say the same about the word “thorough.”  How can public schools say they provide a “thorough” education when the evidence shows that they do only what they have to do to get state money and use it to pay overpriced labor markets ridiculous amounts of money for perpetually poor performance?  The plaintiffs really sounded foolish in this constitutional regard at the Columbus oral arguments.  Even I was embarrassed for them.

I know it, the public school types claim that they are held to different standards than the private schools are not held to, and there is money in that compliance.  But that is again part of the problem of inefficiency, even if government standards have made the public school experience less efficient.  It contributes through their argument of the facts that the public school experience is unreasonably inefficient because of the standards the state has put on them to make the use of the money they get less effective.  Which only makes it worse for them.  This kind of back and forth is why more and more parents want an off-ramp to the public school experience.  Parents wish to choose whether it’s in a private school or to homeschool their kids so they don’t have to send their kids to a factory of Democrat politics, which is what modern education has evolved into.  Public schools are not teaching kids to grow up and become Republicans, which would make sense if it were fair both ways.  But they are actively trying to teach kids to grow up and become Democrats.  And what parent wants to pay for that if they don’t want to lose their kids to radical politics?  Which happens a lot in the public school experience.  And when you go to school board meetings to complain, and the school board cuts off the mic to shut everyone up, what do they expect to happen?  People will want to pull their kids out of those schools and will not want to waste their money on an inefficient school just because it happens to be in their zip code.  The public schools have shown that they waste the money and continue asking for more.  Because they are a bad product made that way through a monopoly status.  And the best thing for them, to make them Constitutionally viable, is to force them to be more efficient in a competitive marketplace, which is why EdChoice and many other voucher programs will increase in number in the years to come.  The teachers’ unions will not win this case, because they can’t show that they contribute an efficient and thorough product.  And with that, the case is over.

The United Nations is Going Bankrupt: They never should have been created

I’m thrilled to hear it.  I used to go to meetings with my congressional representative, John Boehner, where he would do meet-and-greets, before he was Speaker of the House in 2010, and ask him to get the United States out of the United Nations.  Most of the time, he wasn’t there, but had assistants who would take notes for him, but they’d giggle about the crazy right-wing lunatic who they were embarrassed to have as a neighbor.  But I was serious.  I didn’t see anything good coming out of the United Nations.  Americans never wanted to be in the United Nations, even though President Woodrow Wilson wanted America to lead the League of Nations.  Americans finally caved after World War II because nobody wanted to see another Hitler in the world, so we ended up with the ridiculous United Nations, and things have gone downhill for America since then.  Americans want to be left alone and free from world problems.  But we have all these nosey politicians who like to drink tea with their pinky out, and sip wine of specific vintages, and they want to be respected by Europeans, so they have been trying to drag America into a marriage with the rest of the world for generations.  I would even argue that if not for sinister forces working in the background, we would never have had any World Wars, so it can be argued that the wars themselves were constructs meant to create a global government.  Not to prevent hostile characters that might plunge the world into war.  Hitler was a creation of a lot of bad people.  And the United Nations was never the solution. Instead, the solution to many of the world’s evils was more Bible reading and independence from the world’s villains. 

But finally, we have a President who gets it, and a political class that can at least understand what that President is up to and why.  People aren’t laughing when they say they want to be separated from the United Nations like it used to be.  Living in Liberty Township, Ohio, specifically Butler County, I think about the United Nations whenever I see a roundabout.  Most people don’t know it, but many of the sustainable living implements introduced socially have come from the United Nations Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030 flowdown plans, and our colleges accepted these communist traps hook, line, and sinker for years.  When our township politicians hired people out of these colleges as community developers they brought Agenda 21 sustainable living priorities with them and we ended up with a bunch of sidewalks and roundabouts to adopt more European ideas of community building and environmental impact with the ultimate goal of keeping people in their homes more and driving cars less.  And the whole thing has made me sick every time I go through a roundabout, which are almost as common in Butler County, Ohio, these days as they are in socialist run Europe.  People argue about their worth; they say they are better at keeping cars moving, and they prevent accidents, which make insurance companies happy, who lobby politicians for ways to make society safer so that people will buy insurance but not have accidents to force payouts.  So for all the tyrannical micromanagers out there, Agenda 21 would make them a lot of money, but the goal was to limit freedoms so that stuffy bureaucrats could have an easy time at managing society with a growing centralized government and encourage through policy fewer people to leave their homes, but rather to take a sidewalk everywhere, and to ride bicycles instead of cars.  The roundabouts keep you moving, but also slow you down to go around those stupid circles.  I like long straightaways that we used to have in America, where you could go fast, and even quicker if you could beat the yellow light at an intersection.  Sure, there were more accidents, but life in general was better. 

And never forget that COVID was the ultimate creation of the United Nations to implement their Agenda 21 projects and to set the world on the same page with 2030 priorities.  And yes, COVID was a created virus meant to kill people to force acceptance of these ridiculous stay-at-home policies and conformity to centralized government rules.  If people didn’t die, nobody would listen to an overstuffed government, so through the World Health Organization, a division of the United Nations, a virus was created that would set the world on a Great Reset, much of which still hasn’t recovered.  COVID was planned and implemented using the Chinese system.  The virus was leaked out of a lab in China under very nefarious circumstances.  And immediately, the United Nations had the world on lockdown, micromanaging the economy globally, including America, and they thought that people would fall in line better than they did.  Instead, we had significant pushback and a world angry at the policies of the United Nations, and now we have a President willing to push back against them.  And to cut the money confiscated from Americans and redistribute it to the United Nations, to work against the nature of Americans themselves. Finally, we have politicians willing to stand up to that global tyranny and not play the game, which is great. 

What’s better is the recent report that the United Nations is running out of money because, without the United States, that motley band of socialists, communists, and Marxists has no money.  They can only loot cash from the only capitalist country in the world, America, to sustain themselves.  And now, because we elected Trump, they have essentially been cut off.  And it couldn’t have happened to a nicer group of people.  So I’m pretty happy about their trajectory toward financial ruin.  I have never liked the United Nations.  I have never liked politicians who support them and wanted to join them.  And I would say that without their desire to be created in the first place, we never would have had a World War.  Those wars were created as a reaction to the globalist push that followed the Jekyll Island meetings that started the Federal Reserve, and if you trace all the money and influence to their sources, you will find that it all goes to centralized monetary policy, especially the banks of Europe.  So, there was never anything good about any of this, and what upset them the most was that even after all this time, they never found a way to get Americans to comply with the United Nations willingly.  Sure, we built some roundabouts and sidewalks.  However, people have never embraced the United Nations’ globalist priorities.  Instead, we elected people like President Trump to say no to the United Nations.  And now they struggle to survive because they have nothing without American money.  Because they are rotten, stinking, Marxist countries with bad leadership and horrible economic policies.  And micromanagers without a clue.  But they can name a wine from France in a dinner conversation.  And they will drink it with their pinky out.  I would say that the United Nations types and their supporters are worthless people in life, and I am glad to see them finally rejected for the losers they have always been.  And the more miserable they are, the happier I am.

The Future CEO: They won’t come from the Linkedln losers

When I was in college, I majored in economics and philosophy, and it was apparent even then that a significant shortage was headed our way: a CEO shortage of strong, viable leadership.  And that the attack on our culture that was creating that shortage was purposeful and malicious.  And now we see it everywhere, from failed companies ranging from everything, whether we are talking about the collapse of the Frisch’s restaurant chain, Tupperware, or the Hollywood movie industry.  In every form of business, we see a class of CEOs who were taught weak politics, put in place over those reasons alone, and have choked off and killed huge portions of business sector economies.  I used to warn everyone back then, and people would laugh and giggle and call me a conspiracy theorist for what I was saying.  But as it turned out, everything was true.  We are not making Jack Welch-type CEOs anymore; clearly, people are yearning for it, which is one of the reasons why President Trump was elected back into the White House.  People don’t like the lack of leadership in the world, or what has happened to their businesses.  But if you talk to company heads from top to bottom worldwide, especially in the United States, you find these trained monkeys who don’t know what they are doing and couldn’t lead an ant colony to a breadbasket at a picnic.  Reflecting on my college days, they were only teaching Marxism as an economic viability which I thought was ridiculous and it didn’t take much to figure out that an entire generation learning that kind of garbage was of course going to be crippled in their adult lives, which is precisely the case we are seeing now.  The biggest challenge in the modern age is not returning our economy to our hands, which is occurring rapidly under Trump’s policies.  The shortage of leadership is coming out of the CEO class now, who aren’t prepared to lead companies into healthy sustainability.

Another thing that I am very critical of, just as I was of the college teaching methods, is the new trend of LinkedIn, the professional networking site.  There is a lot wrong with it, which was designed to pull leadership-oriented professionals toward a social score of acceptance that is very China-like.  It’s more about uniformity than exceptionalism, and the deficiency is certainly showing up in our culture today.  We can bring back our jobs from the impact of globalism, but can we put CEOs in place to run those companies in time to run them?  I have a lot of faith in the adaptability of human beings, especially when they are under pressure.  And I would say that we can.  However, the current recruitment method and implementation of a leadership culture, as seen on LinkedIn, is not where the future is.  Consensus building with other losers hiding behind professional titles will be smoked out quickly under the scrutiny of marketplace competition.  And companies that have gone down that road are finding themselves lacking, which is evident in the failures of so many companies these days, who followed the rules of the Obama administration and found themselves closed and bankrupt, which was always part of the plan.  Who needs an army to attack an enemy country when you can train a generation of leadership to lead their economy down the drain?  It could be argued that many of the failures we are seeing from older companies are because they are at the end of their business cycle, and new opportunities are squeezing out the old-fashioned companies with tired brand recognition.  But I would say it’s more than that.

I used to get a lot of flak for my interest in philosophy, even when majoring in it, from the same type of losers today who think LinkedIn is their key to networking salvation.  But I will say now what I said then: what you think matters, and why you think it.  Not following the orders of what some professor committed to Keynesian economics and Marxist social diatribes tells you will be important when it wasn’t going to be.  Probably the best thing I have ever done was spend those college years reading so much philosophy independently, without being told to do so by anybody.   And if more people had prepared themselves independently of the established institutionalism, they’d be better prepared for this significant change in leadership necessity, now.  And I am enjoying a certain satisfaction now because of all the criticism I endured.  The world will find a way for sure.  But it won’t come from those most trained to do it.  The market rejects bad CEOs in favor of innovation, hard work, and merit. It is not the LinkedIn values of a fancy profile picture and a padded resume that looks and sounds impressive, but it is essentially representative of a trained failure made that way by institutionalism to hit the market as a failure and bring down our entire society.  When what you learn philosophically leads to ruin, don’t be surprised when bad leaders ruin companies.  As I say that, I’m thinking of Bob Iger at Disney, who has pretty much ruined that company with bad social philosophy and a reckless assumption that the power of the company would always remain, and would never feel the effects of competition.

The world’s future leaders will not come from institutionalism; they will come from the pressure cooker of life.  Those who have survived the pitfalls of globalism with their take will be the most viable to adapt to these rapidly changing economic standards.  The marketplace will find leaders to run all these new companies.  But it won’t be by the old networking ways, but in the philosophy of success that is at the foundation of all endeavors.  Process fulfillment can’t allow group consensus to hide Marxism in the shadows, which is what has been happening.  It can’t allow the losers of LinkedIn to pad a resume and say some fancy things here and there without actually leading people to victory.  No, in a competitive environment, good leadership will be driven by a proper philosophy of success that wins the day.  Not the CEO who wanted to check all the DEI boxes and led their companies to ruin following it, as Bob Iger did at Disney, and many other huge companies suddenly struggling to maintain their markets.  The brownnoser, the boot licker, the social appeaser will not find a world conducive to their back-footed strategy.  Only the strong and wise will adapt to this rapidly changing market.  There will be a lot of failures, but those who do succeed are those who weren’t taught by institutionalism to fail, purposely.  But those who didn’t listen.  And as I look around, I am happy that I never did.  It’s easy to criticize now with hindsight being what it is.  I feel a little sorry for those who thought they had a handle on all this, because the suffering is hard on them.  But that’s how the ball bounces in a wild and woolly world.  Competition will root out the bad.  Marxism can’t hide them from the world as they have been doing.  But we will be far better off for it.

The Jesse Watters DOGE Interview: A change that will last

It was an excellent interview with Jesse Watters, DOGE, and Elon Musk.  I think we are seeing something here that will stick around, and I couldn’t be happier, reflecting over the years to the early part of the Tea Party movement, when fiscal responsibility was our main concern.  It seemed inconceivable at the time that something like a DOGE would ever happen.  But here we are in 2025 having serious discussions about the massive government waste that taxpayers are funding, and it’s not just a campaign issue that comes up every four years.  As Elon Musk has set it up, DOGE has emerged as something that can stick around long after he’s gone, which is what good CEOs do for their companies: you set the table and make it so that you build a culture that can run on its own.  And I’m sure Elon Musk will stick around and be a figurehead of DOGE for a long time.  But what he has created and what the members are doing will last and become a part of government oversight that will last even as the political tides might change.  The Jesse Watters interview captured well what DOGE really is, which I’m sure they had no idea it would be.  One thing that was certainly obvious was that the people doing DOGE are brilliant and well-intentioned, and what Elon Musk has done as the head of the effort is set a standard that can now cascade into a culture of scrutiny that should have been present from the beginning.  Whenever you have money involved, there will be people looking to exploit the system so they can steal some of it.  And when you have a government this big and powerful, that can confiscate so much wealth from people, abuse was a certainty.  But to what extent can people only imagine, until now?

I don’t think Elon Musk needs to be there every day to run DOGE.  It’s nice that he is still doing it even as the government’s activism against him has sought to ruin his car company, Tesla.  Elon Musk might be the wealthiest person in the world, but this commitment to DOGE has cost him dearly.  And I think from here on out, all that needs to be done is to empower people like the current DOGE members into doing the work and to let it take on a life of its own.  What they ended up with differs from what they set out to do in saving trillions of dollars off the top of the budget.  Most of the savings they have extracted aren’t the obvious things like entitlement payments and program-driven budgets, but the day-to-day abuses that get hidden behind all the chaos.  Most of the savings coming from DOGE are in saved opportunity cost, which is usually very hard to measure.  Elon Musk’s way of thinking when running his other companies was just what was needed.  The government has required this oversight since it started collecting taxes, and what Elon Musk has done in this very short time deserves great recognition and gratitude because he could have done what most everyone does, and just ignored the problem.  When you are as wealthy as he is, he could have easily turned his back on the issue and moved offshore to live a fun life.  But to sink his teeth into this project took guts, and because of it, we’ll be talking about DOGE, I think, permanently. 

People can’t be trusted to do the right things on their own, and one thing that came out of the DOGE interview on Fox News was how many people have been abusing the system dramatically.  I saw much of this firsthand when my wife and I traveled to Washington, D.C. for an extended period and lived in Fairfax County to see how most of those communities entirely existed off the waste scraped off the top of government.  Many of the programs that have so much waste in them were created with the best of intentions, but when you involve people who are always looking for the easiest way to do things, a scandal is bound to happen, and many people are professional con artists, even to themselves.  They can look in the mirror and even lie to what looks back and feel okay with it.  Those are the kind of people drawn to government work, and the many spoils come from a largely unregulated system.  The stories of abuse that DOGE is telling are just the tip of the iceberg.  And, astonishingly, we are talking about it now.  I thought from the Tea Party perspective that we’d have to have another Revolutionary War-type engagement to get control of government spending and waste.  I never thought that President Trump, one of the wealthiest men in the world, would be in the White House, which meant he was personally free of the typical social constraints that even keep the questions from being asked.  Or that the wealthiest and most innovative CEO in the world would personally create a department to oversee waste management and root out the perpetrators like a gunslinging sheriff in a wild and hostile old west town full of criminals. 

I think Elon Musk has done enough, and if he did nothing else with DOGE, he has given us something that will last well into the future.  I do not think that Democrats will be back in the White House anytime soon, if ever.  I do not see them retaking power in the House and Senate and gaining the ability to stop DOGE politically.  No, I think DOGE is here to stay and will run fine because it has good people in it, and it started because of Elon Musk.  But it has emerged into its own thing, and now there is a level of expectation for it to continue.  The public will never not want a DOGE to look out for waste on their behalf.  Going back to the system where looters were free to steal all they could from the government system will never be what it was.  In a lot of ways, creating DOGE is what people looked through all the smoke to elect Trump in the first place was all about.  This is precisely why we wanted Trump.  Elon Musk wouldn’t be able to participate in our government if not for how Trump runs things.  This kind of CEO management style has taken this government waste problem and brought it out of the box for us to fix, instead of the continued policies of hiding the issue from the world and hoping that nobody notices.  DOGE has been so successful that the expectation will be that it will always be a part of government and that its role will expand with time to unleash enterprising people to protect government systems from the parasitic nature of most human beings.  Only the threat of getting caught will keep people in line.  And without DOGE, there was nothing to give criminals pause.  But now there is, and we are far better off for it.

The Value of Frisch’s in Cincinnati: Anti family efforts by lots of bad people show just what they want to do to America

The trouble started for Frisch’s restaurants in the Cincinnati area when they allowed a private equity acquisition from NRD Capital to bring in a bunch of woke ideas that started a chain reaction beginning in 2015 that essentially killed the business during the self-made government Covid crises that sealed the deal.  Sadly, Frisch’s has always been a big part of my family’s life; but these days, they are empty everywhere.  I saw the writing on the wall the day I tried to order a Coke, and they told me they had switched to Pepsi products.  That was in 2015, ahead of President Trump’s first term, and I shook my head at my wife at the impending doom that was to come.  Pepsi tends to support a client base that is more liberal than Coke, which has, over the years, marketed toward more traditional audiences.  And Frisch’s was always about respect for tradition, family strength, and the morning breakfast bar.  It has been very sad to see so many of Frisch’s restaurants closing, especially the one in Fairfield off Seward Road, and the one right in the heart of Sharonville.  A few are still fluttering along, but when I drive by them at 6:30 AM, they are as closed as a barn door to a stable full of wild horses.  A self-imposed exile caused by parasitic lending practices and people in finance who thought they could loot benefit from a solid Cincinnati tradition, when they set up a lease agreement that just financially crushed the restaurant chain that relied on family tradition and a community experience to survive.  Other similar restaurants, such as Denny’s, Applebee’s, and Red Lobster, have all been going through the same kind of challenges.  But adding to the problem were the Covid shutdowns, for which Frische’s never recovered, and changes in social discourse that has an anti-family slant to it, and what we are seeing now with the closure of over 40 locations, 20 of them just in 2024 alone, is the foolish and parasitic imposition of government and short sighted financial institutions destroying American business.

No people at the breakfast bar at 7 AM

I have unique knowledge about this decline as I used to work at Frisch’s as a waiter during the 90s, a period that had crushing difficulty for me.  I was going through a lot of what Frisch’s is now at that time in my life, with serious lawsuits and government trouble that were crushing.  A lot of people would not have blamed me for committing suicide, given the level of pain and suffering I was enduring at this time.  It was so severe and complex that Job from the Bible was fortunate.  People had no idea how I would survive or if I would.  Without being too ostentatious, I can say that it was horrible, and at the time, I saw no way out.  I was acting as my own lawyer in several lawsuits, which did not have a very good track record of success.  Looking back on it, believe what you want about God, but he was testing me, and I passed the test primarily by dusting myself off and becoming a waiter at Frisch’s while I spent the next five years digging out of that bottomless hole with extraordinarily high tips from a public who had come to like me quite a bit.  I was their area philosopher, and people would come to eat at the Frisch’s restaurant that I worked at on Fields Ertle Road to hear me talk and give them advice.  And I learned a lot about people during this critical time that I use daily.  And the wisdom I gained from all that crushing pain was better than all the gold available to the masses of humanity.  And thinking back on it, I couldn’t have had it any other way. 

I picked that particular restaurant to work at because it was where my wife and I went all the time as a young couple, and on the first day that my first daughter was born, coming home from the hospital, we ate there with her all cuddled up in a blanket on the table.  So I picked that moment to make a massive life recovery, and hustled back to health.  I put on a smile and a whole lot of hustle, worked all I could and I won my cases, fought off a lot of very evil people and I made a small fortune in unnaturally high tips because of my personality and the families who came to eat at the restaurant that I was working at to have me work their table.  They would ask for me at the front specifically.  I understood why Frisch’s was such a great place as a host to the family experience, and I wanted to help with that effort any way I could, literally being at the bottom of the barrel myself.  I learned that a healthy dose of optimism can carry you through anything, for a large part, that was the marketing plan for Frisch’s to provide a platform for the public to engage in positive community interaction.  It’s where people went to see their friends and neighbors and to have good food, which started with the Car Hop days, where personal automobiles fused with American lifestyles centered around freedom and independence. 

You can’t live in the past, and things do change.  But what happened to Frisch’s is a massive social breakdown where people don’t go out into the community for a shared experience anymore, and that is a government policy problem attached to the United Nations.  The breakdown of the family structure is very much a globalist trend that interferes with places of business like Frisch’s.  I was also so pro-family that my customers would give me their checks worth of tips to show their appreciation, tipping at a rate of 80% or more, with 100% not uncommon.  Rob Dibble, the former Reds pitcher from the Nasty Boy days used to stop by and eat at my station quite often and would leave me $100 tips for a ten-dollar check, to hear me talk.  People went to Frisch’s for the company and the food.  The globalism that attacked American ideas was against both things that migrated into our local community through hostile lending practices, leaving behind a lot of history and tradition. And Frisch’s and its excellent breakfast bars are now a thing of the past.  And the writing was on the wall when they switched from Coke to Pepsi in 2015.  It was too late when they tried to correct that mistake just a few years ago and return to Coke.  They had blown their market viability and been destroyed by forces that took it for granted that Frisch’s would always have its lights on.  And now people don’t do things as a family like they used to, leaving Frisch’s out of the consideration by a public that used to value those experiences and has not yet replaced the sentiment with other options in the marketplace.  This wasn’t a natural market-driven killing. It was the purposeful destruction of many hidden elements that are parasitic in nature and anti-American at heart.  And Frisch’s was, and whatever survives from all this, a very pro-American family gathering place that shows what the efforts of globalism always intended for them and us as a whole.  Without Trump, America would be just as Frisch’s is now, only a memory with empty storefronts and massive debts as a distant memory of what it once was.

He Who Owns the Gold Rules: Why the Pentegon won’t be able to get rid of Pete Hegseth

I was thrilled that Pete Hegseth got rid of Susan Rice at her Pentagon job.  I disagree with Bill O’Reilly when he says that the military brass in the Pentagon will run Pete off from his new Secretary of Defense role, as Trump appointed him to reform the military.  I don’t think they will be able to, and here’s why, and why everything that Trump is doing is going to work—he who owns the gold rules.  The administrators are not in charge.  And they are being exposed, and they have lost their leverage.  Susan Rice represents that era of administrators who purposely sought to give away America’s gold so it couldn’t rule the world.  I heard a very funny interview recently from a British reporter trying to challenge Natalie Winters from the WarRoom about America and its place in the world, and let me just say, there are a lot of people who are in for some hard lessons.  Never forget that the real issue is socialism against capitalism, and to make socialism and communism work, there have been many globalist types who have purposely given away America’s gold so that it wouldn’t be able to rule.  And when this globalist reporter couldn’t talk down to Natalie as a young woman, he was exasperated by her arrogance.  But she knows, and everyone else is learning, that the key to stopping globalism is to stop giving away American values to countries that don’t deserve it.  Susan Rice’s firing by Pete Hegseth is part of a larger pattern emerging from the Trump administration, and it is precisely why we voted for him.  People like Susan Rice, a former U.S. National Security Advisor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations under President Obama, are not going to be allowed to run the Pentagon in favor of policies that weaken America and strengthen the rest of the world that has adopted socialism and communism.  And she won’t be the last to go.

The national security issue is a simple one; I talk about it all the time with my gunfighter at the bar metaphor.  The gunfighter can have his back to the room and not worry about everyone trying to kill him, because everyone wants to find some way to get what he has, because he has value.  As I say, “he who owns the gold, rules.”  Other people may try to steal that gold, but they dare not when you have a superior military or a reputation for being the fastest with a gun, because it’s too risky to confront.  They would rather wait until you sleep and try to steal it that way.  And in the case of our Pentagon, people like Susan Rice have been undermining American independence for decades.  And if we had put some regular general in the system of Pete Hegseth’s current role, we’d get another nobody giving away American wealth to achieve peace.  As a communications expert, Pete Hegseth knows how to sell America to a new recruiting class, and his value has already seen a sharp increase in recruitment.  But for the pretentious people who work at the Pentagon and love to spend a lot of time in Georgetown eating and shopping with inflated wages and lifelong appointments that they don’t fear losing, the old days are over, and they are never coming back.  Globalism has been a bad deal, and one of the most significant bleeding wounds America has had has come out of the Pentagon from people like Susan Rice.

Negotiations with other countries are simple.  Do they have gold?  No.  They have crappy economic systems because they adopted Marxist ideas, which is the case in most of the world, including that English reporter who was interviewing Natalie Winters.  The truth is, America has the most excellent economy, even with far fewer people than China, and that is because of our capitalist markets.  And the bureaucratic administrators of the Washington D.C. culture have been working to undo that, and they will not be allowed to.  They don’t have the power anymore and won’t have the power to eliminate Pete Hegseth from his position.  They have been trying to create a scandal to pressure Pete and leak information to the media to accelerate that pressure.  But this is where things get fun, that’s why Trump put a media star in that position so that he could undo the rumors and pressure, because he knew from the beginning where the threats were.  And those people won’t be able to get rid of Pete Hegseth.  But Pete can undo them, which he started with when he fired Susan Rice.  Who cares what other countries think, or how fair it is for them?  They don’t get a seat at the big boys’ table if they don’t have gold.  Those are the rules of the world, and the only way to get gold in a capitalist economy is to become competitive and have things that the world wants.  Not to wait for globalists like Susan Rice and the Pentagon losers from the administrative state to steal gold from America and give it to the worthless and corrupt so that they can feel like they have a seat at the table.  No, they need to grovel like all the other Marxists. 

This is The Art of the Deal, as Trump has known and written about it for many years.  You have to know your leverage point and not allow others to think they are equal.  If you have something the world wants, you have some leverage to negotiate with.  We don’t need a governing Pentagon and a United Nations stealing American wealth, then lecturing us about sidewalks and roundabouts.  The administrative state has no value in such a world, and to destroy it, Trump is exposing that in favor of those with real value, and Susan Rice and the gang can’t compete on that level.  The English reporter talking to Natalie can’t either.  And they find such a concept of competition reprehensible, because they have been trained as Marxists.  But that house of cards is coming down and being exposed for what it always was.  Remember what I said many years ago about Trump’s second term?  If people wanted to understand it, just read The Art of the Comeback, where he was underwater by billions of dollars, and a homeless person sleeping on the street was much richer than he was.  And how he climbed out of that dire situation, and pretty quickly.  A few years later, he was the star of the hit television show The Apprentice, now on Amazon Prime.  Everyone should watch it and learn, because that is happening at the Pentagon.  And the world with the Trump administration knowing economics better than most practitioners anywhere.  If you want to be valuable in the world and have a seat at the table, find something you do well and use it as leverage to make a good deal.  Don’t grovel like a bunch of Marxist losers.  That trend is over, for America.  And we are never going to return to that policy.  And those guilty of it, like Susan Rice, will be fired for poor performance.

The Evil of Parkinson’s Law: At the heart of all inefficiency is the human tendency to procrastinate

If you want to destroy a culture, teach them all the wrong things, such as Parkinson’s Law, that the time to perform a task will fill with the work to be applied.  It’s because of Parkinson’s Law that we have timers in sports; otherwise, the game would be boring because the pressure to perform would be nonexistent.  But the human desire to procrastinate is ever-present, so when you leave it to them to come up with what they think they can do, or what they want to do, they will tend to take up all the time that is available to do it.  So when we talk about the efficiency of something, the biggest villain in the world is probably Parkinson’s Law.  When we talk about government efficiency, we are talking about schedules and fulfilling the needed work to complete them on time, or ahead of schedule.  If left to their own devices, however, people will pad their part of a schedule to the point where, by the time everyone does it that’s involved, suddenly you have grotesquely long lead times and a horrendously inefficient processing.  It has always been bad, and the basic task of any management system is to push people out of their comfort zone and achieve things faster than they would otherwise do.  That’s why there are 2-minute drills in football: to get the most done possible in a short amount of time.  Without that pressure, the game wouldn’t be very exciting.  If we asked players how much time they needed for something to get done, they would ask for weeks to achieve a touchdown.  However, the pressure of time and its management are what make the game exciting.  Without it, things get boring really fast.  And that is the biggest problem we have in the world right now, Parkinson’s Law. 

If you have dealt with the government, no matter what city you’re in, you’ll know that parking garages are very busy from 8 am to 9 am.  It’s hard to park in a parking garage in any downtown area during that busy time of the day.  But by noon, the parking garages are nearly empty, and by 3 pm, most everyone is gone home for the day.  Government workers seldom do much of anything before 8 am; by 3 pm, they are almost non-existent.  This came up recently when some people in government were trying to explain to me the lead time to approve a submission to them, and they indicated that they needed another 27 days to perform the task.  The pressure to perform on time was not even remotely present in their lives, and they resented the question even being asked.  Their attitude is that you’ll get it when you get it and be happy about it.  It’s the kind of thing that I complain about regarding BMV stations all the time.  Government workers have been taught that functioning under timed pressure is something not required of them and that it is actually a work benefit not to feel that pressure.  So, no wonder it takes so long for the government to do anything.  And because we use the government to teach our people, the government has taught our society the same dumb stuff, and now our entire civilization uses Parkinson’s Law to avoid the stress of performance in every industry.  We still enjoy timed performance in our sports.  But for our professional lives, we use it to full effect as a passive aggressive hatred for doing jobs that we’d rather not do, and because we are forced to make a living by performing work, we have used Parkinson’s Law to remove the demands and stress of having to do too much work and buy ourselves more leisure time because bored people in the world are miserable specimens of existence and want to shove that misery onto other people because they resent having jobs in the first place.  And that lack of passion has killed most of our industries, from drive-thrus to hospital visits.  Everyone these days involved in schedule making is using Parkinson’s Law to avoid doing hard work, and it has virtually killed most industries.

Behind Parkinson’s Law is the communist labor movement that is anti-management because they are anti-time.  They have sought to remove management from all processes by selling the idea that the workers own all work and that management and ownership are greedy capitalists and must be removed from the process at every level because management imposes time standards that compress schedules.  In a typically slow place of business, you will find unionized labor at the heart of the problem, you would be hard pressed to find any that perform efficiently.  They encourage companies to hire too many workers to overstaff themselves because the time of opportunity to utilize a workforce entirely is limited by rules like an 8-hour work day, only 5 days a week.  Weekend work is almost unheard of, and the unions want to take credit for being less productive.  Some tricks can be used to shake them off this foundation, such as Lean Manufacturing, which Toyota has used to significant effect.  But most of that is because the Japanese people’s work ethic and management systems do not yield to Parkinson’s Law, and their culture avoids it like the plague.  But generally, Parkinson’s Law is not just a disease of the mind, as most people think.  It’s a disease of society.  You cannot talk about making a process efficient if you do not deal with Parkinson’s Law.

One of the truly great innovations of our modern society has been the Chick-fil-A drive-thru, which is among the best out there, at least in my experience in the Cincinnati area.  During their lunch rush, they quickly produce and deliver an enormous amount of food with a double lane drive-thru.  People go to Chick-fil-A because of the excellent service they get there.  The chicken is good, but it’s the service that rules at that popular fast-food restaurant.  The staff is always happy to serve and doesn’t waste your time.  And people feel they get a better product at Chick-fil-A because their time is respected.  They don’t make you wait; if you do have to wait, they are all over themselves with apologies.  Chick-fil-A’s success in the marketplace is because they have created management systems that remove Parkinson’s Law from their interactions with the public.  And the result has made them the best in the industry at drive-thru service.  All the other fast-food restaurants have allowed themselves to be eroded with increased regulation that imposes Parkinson’s Law into their Labor Department processing, and it shows in the rate at which food hits the window on a drive-thru.  If you’ve ever been to Europe, you will see that this need for speed is something they resent a lot.  And too many Americans have been convinced they should follow the Europeans.  But hidden in the background of that belief is the poison of slowness that comes with raw global Marxism.  And behind those efforts is Parkinson’s Law, which panders to the worst of human behavior, which shows in their work.  Which then deprives the culture of performance and merit.  And it all starts with Parkinson’s Law.  It’s been around for a long time; it’s not a new invention.  But it’s gotten worse over time, not better, and after twenty years of Obama and his types in government getting their point across, Parkinson’s Law has migrated into just about every field of endeavor.  Even amusement parks have bought into this trait by selling fast passes.  They purposely make you wait in long lines to force you to buy their fast passes, for an admission ticket that is already expensive.  They use the burden of time to force people to pay more for an expedited experience.  FedEx and all the carriers do the same thing.  If you want it fast, you’ll pay more.  You’ll hire too many.  The truth is that people should want to do better.  Managers should show them the way and the workers should listen rather than allow procrastination to rule over the work that needs to be performed.

Yes, We Are Going to Arrest Judges and Put Them in Jail: “Imagine” a world where law breakers actually get punished

Yes, to answer the question, we will put judges in jail.  If they break the law, they will be arrested and thrown in jail with everyone else.  And that is a lesson that Judge Dugan in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, learned in late April of 2025 as she was trying to help an illegal alien escape as agents were in her courtroom to deport the guy.  We have been talking about the radicalism of our judiciary, who have come to believe that they don’t have to live by the same rules that the rest of society does, but that they have gained king like powers to resist temporary challenges to social order by elected representatives, like Trump in the White House.  So their goal is to put on the brakes and use the process to stall out temperaments.  Their commitment to the hostile policies of the Open Border movement, which is globalist in nature, was never more evident than in their resistance to the Trump movement.  During the last term, we saw that resistance to the popularly elected Trump came from the FBI and other forces at the Department of Justice.  Now the shoe is on the other foot, and Trump has control of those arms of government.  Because people gave him that power through an election, and now we see as a last line of defense these radical leftist judges who always think they could make up the law from the bench and build the kind of society that they’d like as liberals.  This has been a tactic that has emerged more from the background, the longer Trump has been in politics, because the radicalism was always hidden behind polite society.  And to expose it, Trump needed to make society less polite.  We were dealing with a “screw you over with a smile on our faces” culture that was very manipulative and malicious. 

But Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the Pam Bondi Justice Department, with Kash Patel and Dan Bongino working on the FBI side, and we suddenly have many different government agencies we can feel good about.  Before Trump was elected back to office, the FBI was helping judicial radicalism, which is why all these sanctuary cities thought they were going to be able to defy Trump.  But now that cover story has been stripped away, the judges are all alone and exposed.  A former ex-judge in New Mexico was also arrested with his wife for essentially doing the same thing as Judge Dugan. Retired Magistrate Judge Joel Cano and his wife Nancy were arrested at their home by Homeland Security, now ran by the great Kristi Noem, for tampering with evidence by destroying the cell phone of his wife as they were harboring Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, a 23-year old Venezuelan national and suspected member of the Tren de Aragua gang.  When they say, “but there is no evidence,” they say stupid things like that because they know their role in destroying evidence and think we’ll never figure it out.  These old judges who think they are in command of the legal system know that to get convictions, you have to have evidence.  So we have a whole subculture of radical, Marxist liberals who think that if they destroy the evidence, our judicial system will never prosecute and get a conviction.  I have seen this process up close, so it’s a huge problem.  Marxists have been playing on the gullibility of good Christian people for many years, and honestly, we’re tired of it.  That’s why people voted for Trump: to give us these new government agencies that had been corrupted by indecision in the past, but now will enforce the law, even when we know that people like Hillary Clinton are destroying the evidence of her email correspondence.  Or that proof of election fraud was wiped out by the courts, which wanted to certify someone they politically support.  Or in the case of illegal immigration, this judicial couple felt they had the power to change immigration law with a protest by using the system against itself.  And now with Kristi Noem, that shell game is no longer working.

And that is the real fear, the radical left’s observation about arresting judges for getting in the way of Trump’s deportation policies.  Before Trump was elected, he made it clear that he was going to go to war with the drug cartels.  And now we see who has been helping them ruin our country, all these radical leftist judges who are sympathetic to the destruction of our country.   Go through the musical libraries of couples like that one in New Mexico. You’ll find a lot of hippie music and progressive artists like Stevie Ray Vaughan, and they are probably in love with John Lennon’s communist song, “Imagine.”  These are not flag-waving Constitutional patriots.  These are hostile hippies now aged and abusing the power they were given as legal professionals to articulate their politics as senior citizens.  And whatever Judge Dugan thought she was doing by trying to sneak off an illegal immigrant in her courtroom through her private chambers only indicates how deep this problem has been for decades.  These judges have been trying to cripple America with soft on crime policies and to change the nature of the American people with open border policies written while pot smoking losers who now run public policy sit around and listen to that stupid John Lennon song, “Imagine.” 

Well, “Imagine this,” a world where lawbreakers go to jail.  And those in charge of judgeships are arrested for using their bench as a political weapon to undo law and order, rather than preserving it.  Finally, we have a Justice Department, an FBI, and a Homeland Security willing to do the job as needed.  And this is just the beginning.  So yes, we will be throwing more judges in jail and prosecuting the radicals regarding judicial review.  If they want to be relevant in co-equal branches of government, they better be willing to work as hard as Trump does to do a good job.  Up to this point, the people we have had in the White House had too many advisors, and they enjoyed the ceremonial aspects of the job too much, but they weren’t in love with the work.  These judges don’t work very much; they drink too much wine and listen to too much old hippie music, which corrupts their minds about the task.  And they aren’t going to stop Trump with weak political positions and a 9-to-noon daily work schedule.  The world isn’t going to slow down to the political sentiments of the Marxist left.  They will have to compete with capitalism, with value, and with laws that protect those values, rather than being an insurgent trying always to undermine them from their benches.  And regarding evidence, action is some of the best evidence of what people get caught doing.  And Judge Dugan was caught tampering with the arrest and deportation of an illegal immigrant.  But she’s not alone.  We need many of these people to clean up our system.  And it’s good to see that we finally have people willing to do the work.  One arrest at a time.  Put them all in jail.  And if we need bigger jails, let’s build them off the money we save by destroying the drug cartels!

The Attack of Illegal Immigration: Why Democrats are willing to die on the hill of defending an MS-13 gang member

Now, everyone sees just how important, as a military incursion, the open border policy has been to those who want to destroy America.  When Democrats are willing to die on that hill, to make as their next George Floyd some loser gang member in El Salvador a sympathetic character, hoping that by making him the face of the illegal immigration movement, they might hold off fate from bringing their movement to an end.  You have to remember that it does come down to politics; most of the source countries of illegal immigration are socialist, communist, or some form of Marxist, and the hope has been to overwhelm America with these political ideas so that American capitalism would all come crashing down.  It’s the same intent of the World Trade Center terrorist attack.  They were never intent on saving our country, but to overthrow and destroy it.  And every advocate for our destruction should be managed as the threat they showed themselves to be, with serious charges of treason and sedition.  But to make this MS-13 gang member their hill to die on tells you everything you need to know about the contents of their Democrat minds.  They have no other plan but our destruction, and Trump is stopping their plans, and they are terrified of what happens next.  Kilmar Garcia, the MS-13 gang member with the tattoo of that designation on his fist, is the best the Democrats have in hopes of stopping Trump’s deportation policy, which is quite astonishing, since the 29-year-old is such an obvious case of gang violence that comes from these immigration policies.  The best that the lawyers on behalf of Garcia could claim was that he didn’t have any priors, but of course, the reason for that was that he was undocumented to start with.  And he operated off the grid of conformity, so he wasn’t exactly the kind of guy who was easy to pick up.  He was deported for the crime of being an illegal alien, whereas Democrats don’t view breaking immigration law as a crime at all.

Of course, the tactical goal of this escapade is to keep this gang member front and center and highlighted in the courts so that Trump will be tied up from further border enforcement by deporting another 10 million people that Democrats hope will destabilize America from within and topple the whole system.  For Democrats, illegal immigration is a Trojan Horse, and American destruction is their goal.  And violent criminals are their military hope, the poisoning of our society with drugs that come from the long arms of gang activity.  So Democrats have put all their hopes and dreams on people like Kilmar Garcia.  And Democrats are hoping for more color revolutions like they achieved with the George Floyd case a few years back where the death of that drug abuser would incite a destabilizing riot from the mobs of discontent and burn down entire cities and align corporate America behind Democrat politics like a bully stealing the lunch money of innocent people.  Democrats know, as I have said many times, if Democrats can’t cheat in elections, they can’t win, and they need these 10 million illegal immigrants to give them a cover story in hopes of voters who will keep them in power with free government giveaways.  Democrats know that many of these people come from hostile countries rooted in Marxism, so as long as Democrats remain the Marxist representative of a political party in America, they hope for either votes from these illegals, or the hope to at least have a head on the voter rolls that might lean in that direction.  But the problem with that is that many illegals have been supporting Trump, even against their best hopes of being shielded by Democrat politics, which has been surprising.  One thing that people from other places have as an admirable trait is that they like their families.  And Trump is better for families than the Democrat Party.  Democrats are the anti-family party.

When we talk about the election fraud from 2020 many point out that Trump lost his court cases in court because the processing of those cases took longer than the constitutional parameters for inauguration of a new president, so the game was rigged in a way that favored insurgents, and that’s what George Soros and his little boy Alex have been exploiting all along.  They have invested a lot of money in the downfall of the American judicial system, starting with Attorney Generals all over the United States, and regional District Attorneys, such as Big Tish James in New York, who is a great example, as well as the regional prosecutor Alvin Bragg in New York City.  Where just a few years ago, there was a lot more trust in the courts than what we have now, there is always lingering a sense of violence among judges who do not rule in favor of the mob, so the Soros types have been exploiting that to destructive effect and that is what is behind all these Democrats visiting an MS-13 member in El Salvador.  This playbook of sentiment has worked for them many times.  And it’s all they have, while they have it.  The Supreme Court is worried about being firebombed in their homes and by radical Democrats, so that’s why many of those election fraud court cases did not stick in court.  And that is what is behind this push on illegal immigration.  They couldn’t care less about the gang member Garcia.  They are worried about the flood gates opening for the next 10 million who are awaiting the status of these proceedings. 

The real argument centers around enforcement.  Democrats propose that illegal immigration should not be enforced, so when they talk about the criminal background of Kilmar Garcia, they are not considering his illegal status as a criterion for deportation.  They assume that the same rights given to all American citizens also apply to all the world’s people, which isn’t the case.  And just because there has been a lack of will to prosecute gang members like Garcia, Democrats think he should be considered available to all the protections that American citizens enjoy as a fundamental right.  So, as is typical with most Democrat ideas, law enforcement is reluctant to prosecute gang members connected to illegal immigration because the courts have been reluctant to prosecute, due to the radicalism of the courts.  Police know where the gang members are, but the mountain you must climb to get a prosecutor to present those cases to a grand jury is very steep.  It is much easier to arrest someone for spitting on the sidewalk if they are white and are American citizens because the work will stick.  The undocumented status of the illegal immigrants opens up all kinds of additional problems that prosecutors would rather not deal with.  So many criminals have to do terrible things even to get court consideration.  Because once you arrest them, what do you do with them?  What jail can hold them in an illegal status?  So they fly under the radar, and Democrats indicate that they haven’t been arrested because they played the refs on both sides.  That doesn’t mean that crimes weren’t committed, but like the election fraud cases, Democrats have made it difficult to prosecute them and then claim that the targets weren’t charged.  Just as they do with the Supreme Court when Chuck Schumer suggests that the mob attack members of the Supreme Court at their homes, then claim legal victory when that same court avoids making a hard ruling that might incite a mob.  That is what is going on with this MS-13 case; unlike times in the past, people can see the game better than ever. Essentially, because Trump has been willing to have these public fights, where before, no Republican dared to touch the issue.  When they should have been doing it all along.

Why is the Supreme Court Chicken: Jubela, Jubelo, and Jubelum

To understand why the Supreme Court is so soft on backing Trump’s deportations of illegal immigrant gang members, I think we need to understand the old story of Freemasonry regarding the killing of Hiram Abiff, or Chiram Abiff as the story is told in very esoteric circles.  Hiram was the masonic architect of King Solomon’s temple and was murdered by three ruffians while ascending the temple steps.  The murderers wanted the secrets of a Master Mason, and Hiram refused, so he was assassinated by Jubela, Jubelo, and Jubelum.  These three characters represent the mob, the church and all its superstitions, and the state and its rule over people by fear.  The mob always kills off a dynamic challenge to a static order, for which corruption profits.  The mob is the face of preservation of static human concerns.  Freemasonry aims to shed attachments to the material world by ascending the steps of wisdom.  It is always these three aspects of human existence that sabotage effort.  That was certainly the case with Pythagoras, as he was said to have been killed by the mob.  Socrates was killed by the state to preserve the mob, calling it the corruption of the youth, to teach what he was teaching.  Of course, there is Jesus Christ, who was killed by all three, just as Hiram Abiff was.  Jesus was disruptive to the static order, so he was eliminated.  And we could continue through time to tell of many stories where people were killed for disrupting those social norms, which very evil, materialistic people, sought to preserve with violence.  And this cycle continued until President Trump escaped an assassin’s bullet, which missed him during a big rally in Pennsylvania on national television.  And upon that moment, a significant psychological change occurred, because it was the first time that mass populations saw a miracle like that, where the hand of God preserved with a miracle a chosen disrupter to an evil system ruled by those three killers of Hiram Abiff. 

Never forget who the mob picked in the story of Jesus; they did not choose to save from Pontius Pilate the wonderful son of God, Jesus Christ.  No, they picked Barabbas, the criminal, to save—Barabbas the thug, who was just like the mob.  As history thinks of people, it values the mob, the mob of communism, Marxism, and socialism, who rule through violence and chaos.  And the reason that secret societies formed in the first place was to preserve the mystery schools in pursuit of wisdom and knowledge, and that the only preservation method was to die for a cause at the hands of the mob.  The mob destroyed the famous Library of Alexandria and a connection to ancient wisdom there as well.  The three killers of Hiram Abiff rule the world, not the lofty exploits about self-rule that American society intended to utilize out of a philosophic enterprise of a New Jerusalem, the rebuilding of the temple for a third time in the New-Old world, where the garden of paradise could flourish.  We created a Supreme Court to preserve these lofty assumptions, and when you go there and spend some time, as I have recently, you can feel the intent.  But these are only human people in these positions and when you have senators like Chuck Schumer advocating for the mob to kill members of the Supreme Court, that old instinct for self preservation takes over and the Supreme Court members lose their spine and faulter, which is why the Masons have their initiates go through the story of Hiram Abiff at the 3rd degree. 

However, America is also the land of the Second Amendment for preservation against mobs.  Political figures have always used one of those three murderers to preserve their hold on static society, pushing either mob anger, superstitions from the church, or fear from the power of an all-mighty state over its subjects.  The Second Amendment was meant to break that power over these vast evil forces who whisper in the ears of the powerful for chaos, which always follows their efforts with great malice and evil enterprise.  When people can shoot back at these forces, it takes away their power, so there are always campaigns to eliminate the Second Amendment from its Constitutional stronghold.  And as the story should go with Masons, Hiram Abiff should be more like President Trump, and kill the killers, rather than sacrificing himself in favor of wisdom, but without putting his arms around violence.  The way to beat the bad guys is not to make peace with them.  But to take the fight to their doorsteps, which is what Trump is doing by deporting illegal aliens.  The open border movement has wanted to use the fear created by gang members to undermine American society with a military incursion designed to scare people into submission.  This is also why senators like Schumer and others have gotten away with trying to incite a mob against members of the Supreme Court, so that they don’t lose their control over society by instigating the fear of violence.  If people shoot back, they won’t be afraid, so of course, Democrats wrapped up in such a scheme of evil will not want people to be able to defend themselves from Jubela, Jubelo, and Jubelum.

We give the Supreme Court a lofty office, but they are only human.  They have families and constantly fear one of those forces coming to destroy them.  So, in the case of this deportation issue with Trump, they have to show neutrality for their self-preservation.  Even though they know that Trump has vast Article II powers granted by the Constitution to protect the border, they fear the mob’s reaction and want to create at least an appearance of impartiality, to appease the malcontents trying to stoke violence on their doorsteps unless they rule in favor of evil.  Of course, this is judicial tampering, but what does evil care about preserving the rules?  About living in a civil society when they genuinely want to destroy it.  This is the same strategy as we saw with Roe v. Wade. Have we learned who leaked the pre-released decision to the public?  The Supreme Court is buying time before its ruling, hoping to take the edge off the potential for mob violence.  And it’s a problem as old as time itself.  Trump, for his part, is a new figure in history, who survived the plotting exploits of mob violence, because the assassin’s bullet missed on live television, and Trump’s reaction to it, with blood streaming down his face, changed history.  Because in the world’s ways, a world leader showed no fear of Jubela, Jubelo, and Jubelum, but instead fought back.  And that is why we are deporting illegal immigrants who are designed to overthrow our country with chaos and the violence of gangs of thugs.  Trump promised a war against the cartels, and he is doing it, without fear.  And those who need the gang violence to terrorize people, so that the mob can rule, so that superstition can rule, and so that the state can rule with fear, they aren’t happy with Trump.  And the Supreme Court is scared, like the Israelites were when told to fight the giants in the Promised Land before they were penalized for 40 years in the Wilderness for refusing to put on the armor of God, and to trust that God had their back.  Until Joshua did as God intended and did trust that he would be preserved, no matter how bad the odds became.  Trump is a similar character, and the spell is being broken.  But it takes courage to put on the Armor of God and endure the hostile elements always looming in the background.  The Supreme Court has to find the courage to do what’s right.  And they know it.  It’s easy to talk tough.  It’s not so easy to be tough.
