“Trump Won” and They Know It: The truth revealed in the little town of Carrizozo, New Mexico

Nobody else could produce a song that would release to iTunes and beat out the contemporary artists in popularity. And that’s what happened with Donald Trump’s “Justice for All,” which has been number one in the country on the Apple platform, which is the new ranking list for modern music. iTunes, being the liberals that they are, found a way to sabotage the song by not offering it for a short period of time during the week of its number one run, and guess what, another song about Trump from Natashia Owens took its place and then became the new number one, it’s called “Trump Won.” And just like that, we are seeing something that I confirmed right after the last election, a new campaign strategy that sort of manifested all by itself, out of necessity, and truly represents the people of America. It doesn’t surprise me at all that anything with Trump’s name in the title will be very popular. My wife and I saw this for ourselves right after the 2020 election when we spent much of 2021 on the road in our RV, checking out most of the states in America, especially out in the desert. I needed to get away for a while and cool off, and what I learned is what we are seeing with these new smash hits on iTunes. People love the idea of Trump. After several years of not having him, they are poised to send a message to the political establishment and the Desecrators of Davos who control the music industry and entertainment in general. Something that no other Republican challenger could hope to do, and that is connect with the voters in such an intimate way. It’s a way that only Trump could produce, and it’s why he’s the leader of the Republican Party and will remain so no matter what. 

Elon Musk understands what all these further attacks against Trump will mean; the actions of the DA in New York attempting to put the former president in chains for the cameras to capture will set off a wave of anger that this country has never seen before. And for every musical artist looking to make a splash, putting Trump in the content is their ticket to success, which “Justice for All” and “Trump Won” clearly show. Trump doesn’t need to go out and raise money; he doesn’t need the mainstream news, the Fox News people, or MSNBC. He has plenty of supporters who are angry at the direction of their country, and the Deep Staters have crossed the line and do not have a plan for what they are witnessing. I didn’t talk about it much then, but this all became very clear to me while visiting the little town of Carrizozo, New Mexico. It’s a terribly poor town in the middle of nowhere, right where I wanted to be at the time. It was far from politics, and the town had tumbleweeds blowing across the road during a gentle afternoon that felt like nothing in the universe cared if the town had ever existed. It was my wife’s birthday, and we were looking for a hamburger to eat. The town was shut down due to Covid and the out-of-control liberal governor they had there at the time. But we found a speakeasy kind of restaurant that looked closed from the outside. As I peeked through a crack in the door, a little girl let me in, and I found a whole restaurant hiding in there, defying the mandatory shutdown. And they let us in to have a nice dinner. Most of the occupants had on Trump hats, and none of them were American. They were all Mexican, including the owners, and they were very MAGA supporters, so we started a conversation quickly and found we liked each other quite a lot. At that moment, I understood how deep the Trump MAGA movement had seeped into American culture. Over ten thousand miles on that particular trip, I had seen the same thing repeatedly, from Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, all over the south, up to Idaho, everywhere it was the same. Trump was their secret hope that the government could be brought under control and nobody else would do. 

This is why the January 6th prisoners are being so revered. It was after that January 6th event that I had made my decision to journey across the country in our RV. I felt like they did who raided the Capitol. I said at the time I didn’t see anything wrong with what had happened that day. It’s our government, not those of a bunch of loser globalists. People watched their government being stolen from them; their vote was ignored, the political process was rigged, and the judges didn’t have the guts to uphold the Constitution. People were mad. I was mad. I thought better of attacking anything and wanted to turn my attention to a real solution. I wanted to know if just a few radical Trump supporters saw what was happening as I did.  While on the road for that trip I wrote my latest book The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business as a kind of strategy guide to deal with politics and business in this particular time.

Regarding the abusive relationship the government has had with the January 6th prisoners, there are so many Constitutional violations to them, most notably the 6th Amendment. We don’t have a country that exists for government; we are supposed to have a government that serves the people, which was not what we saw after 2020. So people reacted in frustration to varying degrees, but I have always supported the protests at the Capitol. I think the FBI, the CIA, members of Congress, and the Senate are lucky people were so civil. Now years later, we have seen what a set-up job much of J6 was, and a lot of people are still in prison for no good reason other than to hopefully deter further protests. When government no longer listens to people, what are people supposed to do, just conform? I don’t think so. 

I saw the heart of America in that little speakeasy restaurant in Carrizozo, New Mexico. It’s the same kind of people who are happy to get Trump singles on iTunes and why this election season is going to be unlike anything we’ve ever seen before in the history of the world. In that little hamburger joint, I saw a resiliency that would not be put back in the bottle. They do not like what has been happening in the American government and are willing to give the election system another chance. But they are angry. Very angry. When the Sheriff walked in to get a pickup order that day, we made eye contact and talked about the nature of life in America without saying a word. It was an open rebellion, and even the law was in on it. The Sheriff had a MAGA hat attached to his belt next to his gun as if to reassure himself that everything would be OK. He wasn’t going to shut down that restaurant; he was trying to help keep it open out of defiance of a corrupt government. This is why I didn’t talk about it after because I didn’t want to draw attention to it. But I was happy to be there, and I met people on that trip who clearly indicated the future of politics. And it’s not Ron DeSantis, or Nikki Haley, or Mike Pompeo. They are creations of MAGA. But there is only one person that those people will support: President Trump because Trump Won and We Know It. And so do they, which is why they are panicking now. They know what they did, and it’s time for the payback.

If Trump Were President, Banks Would Not Be Failing: The purposeful attack on America’s dollar and independent finance system

We’ve talked about it for months, this indictment of Trump, the possibility of it, the desire for it, and the only strategy Democrats have going into 2024. We’re not even looking at this being a political situation. The opposition party, which is global in nature, started way back, leading up to the Jekyll Island meetings, which created a progressive tax system and the Federal Reserve, will literally do anything to destroy any threat to their long-term plans. As I explained to some people yesterday regarding Ron DeSantis and his offering himself, along with Fox News, the Never Trumpers, and the Paul Ryan losers of the world as MAGA without the drama, you have to understand, there would be no DeSantis, without Trump to clear the field and draw fire from all these hidden antagonizers. This indictment aims to get Trump out of the presidential race by the people who think they run our government. These globalists from the Tragedy and Hope book have always been the threat in the background, who have purposely planned the demise of America through the attack vector of finance. And when people voted for Trump in 2016, despite the election fraud that tried to prevent it, all the maniacal characters hiding in the background were exposed, leading to an acceleration of their century-long plans for globalism at the expense of American sovereignty. And here we are. The talk of arresting Trump by a George Soros-backed DA from Manhattan is enough to launch a Civil War. I would recommend that everyone take it to the ballot box, prevent the bad guys from cheating, and stick it to them in devastating ways within the Constitutional parameters. If they weren’t so afraid of the Constitution, they wouldn’t try to subvert it at every opportunity. It truly is the Holy Water that will push out the demons of our country; just use it.

And the timing of all this aggression is obviously to protect that long-planned plot, the financial destruction of America that the Fed has purposely advanced through reckless spending. Suppose Trump was still in office, which is precisely why there was election fraud to remove him. This is why Covid was created and dispatched worldwide to get Trump out of the White House and destroy his red-hot economy. The attack against America was always to destroy the dollar as the standard of use around the world, and once that happened, American wealth would be destroyed, and we honestly would become the next backwater country with our currency eliminated and our buying power lost. Of course, they want to arrest Trump and keep him from running for President. Of course, they want to single out Ron DeSantis, the choice of the Deep State, because it splits MAGA and makes them easier to destroy. MAGA is literally all that stands in the way of the complete destruction of America. It is the militia that was talked about in the Bill of Rights. Only the weapons of war are not guns but money. With all the confusing messages that there are out there, one that is clear is that we would not have all these bank failures if Trump were still in office. Biden was put in place to make them happen. To crush the over-leveraged banks and their ESG score management system, to force Fed bailouts, and open the door for the nationalization of the banks by a government that is just printing valueless money so that they can acquire all the assets, just as BlackRock has been doing since the last planned failure, the housing crash of 2008.

What we are dealing with here is much worse than in 2008. Everyone knew the ESG scam was a valueless endeavor that had no monetary horsepower. It was a tactical diversion as the thieves of the world robbed the train. These global scumbags are just thieves robbing our banks, our trains, and our assets under the mask of goodness, ESG policies, encouraging risky loans because the ultimate goal was to collapse and rescue by a Federal Reserve applying quantitative easing at a maddening pace. I’ve been pointing this out for several decades now, the danger of this fiscal policy in America and the blind trust that most people have had in the Fed. I was never an anti-Fed buy, as Ron Paul used to suggest auditing the Fed. The Fed has been the greatest threat to the world since it started, but I always felt that there needs to be proper management of the dollar by the government somehow. We had never worked out that policy in America since the creation of the country, and when a bunch of private banks created the Fed, we wanted to believe we could trust them. But what happened was it was just a backdoor for globalism. We allowed foreign interest to manage our country through the policies of the Fed, which are fully committed to the objectives of the World Economic Forum, the Desecrators of Davos. And they are confident that they are going to win the fight against America because they control the money we all use to function. To them, they have already won, and there is nothing we can do about it. 

If Trump were still in office, there would be no bank failures like we are seeing now. We saw that America could quickly turn around an economy with capitalist endeavors that were classically defined. If you manage the Fed and let loose the potential of the American workforce instead of the deliberate sabotage of it that politicians and their financiers have been working to achieve, then America could prosper intensely. We saw it during Reagan’s presidency and again in just the four years that Trump was in the White House. But the United Nations and its alliances with all the socialist and communist countries of the world are wrapped up in this international banking, and the antics of the Fed have been to collapse the American system while distributing our sovereignty to build up the wealth of other nations. People keep saying that these are the objectives of Barack Obama working through the Biden administration. Obama isn’t that smart. This is why Obama’s political career started in the living room of a known domestic terrorist. Obama was put in place to make these fiscal acts of terrorism possible. Biden was established to facilitate the globalist plans for the end of America. And the plan to arrest Trump over some stupid Stormy Daniels nonsense is an attempt to use the law as a weapon against the righteous. But just remember, the Constitution is your best friend. It is the greatest weapon against the Fed, against the globalists, and against the attackers from every direction who are currently in our government. It was designed to limit their power, and by using it and forcing the political class to live up to it, much of their power will be destroyed, including their ability to destroy our independent banking system, which was always the primary goal. And to destroy the American dollar with it. It’s not an accident. It’s a military act, and their plans are now on full display, much more than they would like. And they think they’ll get away with it if they just get rid of Trump. For which I would say they have another thing coming.

Anybody Against the Bible is Up to No Good: The way to defeat the strategy of evil

I’ve never been what anybody would call a “Bible Thumper.” Although I have read the Bible since I was very young, I generally respect other people’s religions to the point where I keep my opinions to myself. But I have studied comparative religion since my twenties, to the level where I could do a professional service out of it, so I am quite well aware of what other people believe and why. That includes the Koran, the Book of Mormon, the Mahabharata, and many others. I don’t see religion, as many do, as the study of a way to arrive at the afterlife. Instead, I see all of them as an attempt to grapple with the here and now and the designation of good and evil. The Koran especially has many of the same characteristics as the Bible does, and the focus is on living a good life, and who could argue with that? Well, knowing a lot about these religions and what they intend to do for the person reading from their texts, then it’s quite obvious to understand what is happening when you see coaches and others getting in trouble in public settings for quoting the Bible. There have been several cases these past several weeks where high school coaches, or even NCAA coaches, have been punished for giving their players inspiration from the Bible, which reveals the real game that is in front of us, and why I have decided to talk more about the Bible and other religions as a direct result of this very social assault. We have a very real enemy in front of us presently who is clearly trying to destroy us, and they seek to replace the values people have with a new religion of government serving as the new God and to do so, they are using the excuse of separation of Church and State as the means to remove people from any sort of social values so that they can replace them with a reverence for big government.

Now, I have no intention of making peace with evil. I have always been interested in fighting evil wherever evil decides to show itself, which is why I enjoy religion so much. Not just Christianity but all of them. If I see people learning values in the fight between good and evil, I’m on board with whatever religion gets them there. I haven’t read a religious book yet that I can’t find some good with. It’s when government gets involved to attempt to pit them against each other for social controls they’d otherwise never get that you start to see the work of evil. For me, it’s not a matter of the truth of a religious text but whether it works for the mind. And I think there are a lot of Bible passages that are fantastic for people seeking intellect, such as Isaiah 57:3-5 “But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore. (4), Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against who make ye a wide mouth and draw out the tongue? Are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,  (5) Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts and the rocks?” I think that is absolutely wonderful, a beautifully written passage. Who in their right mind would have a problem with that? How could a coach, a teacher, or a business professional get in trouble for reciting something like that? 

It’s quite clear to me, and this is why I am talking about the Bible and religion more than usual because it’s my conclusion that these villains in our society now are easy to beat. They have more than shown themselves of late. In these post-Trump presidential years, the many interactions on social media, even the social media debate with the First Amendment at the heart of it, a battle strategy has been made clear to me. The Bible is the heart of it. I have never seen the Bible as a book of peace, which is one of the reasons I like it so much. It’s very judgmental about the nature of good and evil, which I greatly enjoy. I like the concept of making a footstool out of my enemies, as it is often referred to biblically. And I have seen it work on several cases over many years, most notably recently, in many local issues. It’s no longer just different opinions we are dealing with here, it’s a fight against the evil that is in front of us in our time, and it’s up to us to win that fight. And evil knows that if a society is a point of reference in judging what it wants to do, then they are particularly vulnerable. Evil only thrives if it can reside in the shadows and convince people that value judgments are wrong. That is why there is a push in the media, in Hollywood, and in all governments to remove biblical references such as these cases with high school coaches so that people will be left vulnerable intellectually without any foundation of goodness to stand on. Making people easy to destroy from the inside out is clearly evil’s objective. The same people who are telling us that transvestites are normal and perfectly OK, which is the position of the Biden administration, are the same losers telling us that quotes from the Bible are dangerous and must be separated as a matter of church and state. 

I see this all as an easy battle to win; mankind has won these battles before in different ways. But this current rise of evil in the world is, for the first time, a global push using mass media as the means of destruction. The good news is that their position is weak if people have a point of reference for goodness, such as that Isaiah 57:3 passage. The Bible isn’t for getting to heaven, just as none of the religious texts are necessary for such an objective. They are to live a good life as a good person and clearly define what good is. Most interpreters of religious text miss the point; they were taught wrong from the beginning, and that failure cascades into philosophy, generally. I find value in all religions, particularly when it is considered that government wants to become the new religion because there is power in controlling what people believe is the work of evil in the background. So I’m going to talk about these things more because they, for one, interest me. But for another, I see that evil is particularly vulnerable and can easily be defeated if the light of judgment is cast upon them. Religious texts could be works of fiction and still be the word of God. It’s the exploration of thought that matters. It’s not whether Joseph Smith found gold plates with the Mormon religion written upon them and was the direct word of God, that matters. What matters is exploring an idea that distinguishes good and evil in a social context and can free people from the bondage of authoritarian rule. This is why China does not like religion, and for those who want to copy the China model of using government to replace religion for a one-world government where the deity in charge of civilization is a worshiper of mother earth, then the best way to defeat that attempt is by having a relationship with religious work. The Bible is particularly good, as are other intentions from many religions. But once good and evil are distinguished, the work of evil is much easier to defeat. And as bad as things have been with evil showing itself with increasing audacity, it only succeeds when people lose their way, and by reading from books like the Bible, they can find their way to goodness rather quickly, which is the best way to defeat the intentions of evil, which is the most important task of our time.

Eating Ice Cream and Defending Lawsuits: Lakota should have never tried to use the China model of social communism to drive a narrative

I was vacationing on Mackinac Island in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, having a nice ice cream with my grandchildren as a horse and buggy strolled by, the scene looking like a Norman Rockwell painting from a century ago when my peeps from my home district of Lakota were ringing up my phone with new information on the superintendent problems we were having there. The report was that I was going to be sued by that very progressive public employee and that I had big legal trouble on my hands. A group stoking the flames was “Rinos for Lakota,” who were throwing my name around as a blowhard who had it all coming. They hoped the superintendent would sue me into oblivion, destroying me once and for all. The people telling me all this were obviously people who cared for me and wanted to give me a heads-up. At the same time, my granddaughter wanted to show me a cool picture of a horse she had just drawn on the ice cream store napkin. I noted the information and quickly resumed enjoying my family and the island itself. It was a world away, and I was enjoying it. I pushed down my anger for that moment and would deal with the trouble when I returned home. And as is always my practice, I never forgive a transgression. Even if it takes decades, when someone shows ill will toward me, I make it my mission in life to make a footstool off their metaphorical carcass. But I also never let those ill intentions ruin my life. At this point, I’ve heard all this before; I am very used to ill intentions. But like most things in life, intentions and execution are different things, and a lesson that should be learned by now, especially at Lakota, is that ill intent pushed in my direction doesn’t go well for them. And that would undoubtedly be the case with this very political situation in 2022.

When I returned, I had good memories of that ice cream with my grandchildren and was in a good mood. Then, of course, history tells the rest of the story and for all those people who wished bad intentions on me, to see me destroyed in court and have my life turned upside down because they decided to move into my neighborhood, then bring with them all these dumb, liberal ideas from all the garbage dumps they moved from, and expected to change me. Well, life has dealt them some much-deserved blows. I don’t get upset about those kinds of legal threats or the postings of a bunch of RINOs because we have this little thing called the Constitution that I know holds up very well in court. And so long as you follow the Constitution, you will win your court cases. People who don’t understand the Constitution, the Bill of Rights specifically, make dumb statements like those in the Rinos (Conservatives) for Lakota had been making regarding the devastating situation that Matt Miller had put himself in as a public figure, paid for with taxpayer money to perform a very public role. We have a First Amendment to provide a check on power and the abuses that often happen. It’s critical to the maintenance of good government, and clearly, Lakota had bet everything on a public relations-controlled show that was not rooted in sound legal merits, which is why they get sued a lot themselves, and they lose or settle those cases. They assume that the rest of the world is as legally ignorant as they are, so they think that threats like what was made to me might have some impact. For me, I didn’t even pause in eating my ice cream. The news was as worthless as the ice cream I was eating, as it would soon be melted and at the bottom of my stomach. The only good thing to come from the ice cream was in the joy of me eating it. And as it would turn out, because of their ill intentions toward me, all the bad news that has happened to Lakota and continues to happen is a joy for me, just as consuming that ice cream was.  

My kids are grown, and my grandkids are being homeschooled. The only reason I care about Lakota is because they are an institution of liberalism that is paid for with my property taxes. It disgusts me that I have to give one dollar to them. I would just as soon give that dollar to a homeless person shooting up drugs on a street corner. I don’t see anything good coming out of public schools, especially Lakota. I warned them years ago about the Chinese exchange program they had by sending teachers and administrators to China to “learn” from a communist country. They didn’t listen, of course, because they thought they knew better. And here we are in 2023 with the entire government school and all their ignorant supporters assuming that the media can be controlled just as they do in China. And they hate that a pesky blogger is reporting on the bad things they do, and that I likely know more about the law than most of the lawyers they could hire. But all of them have forgotten that “they” are not in charge. They never were in charge. And they owe the public openness so we can see what they are wasting our hard-earned money on. And what exactly they are teaching these kids in our community, and why. What they are learning now, too late, is that the courts support such positions. Just because the government schools and their loser supporters assume a reality to be something, it doesn’t mean that it is. 

This is not China, America will never be China, free speech will continue to be protected, and all the methods that the government school of Lakota has used to attempt to intimidate people into submission were illegal, just as they are going to learn in the coming months as they try to use public forum debates as a way to limit opposition opinion and shape for public relations a fake community dialogue. When they hire bad employees who bring bad values to our community and intend to teach bad things to our young people, that’s on them. Then to hope that some kind of social peer pressure by very stupid people will alter the course of public life in the district is an assumption built on ignorance. It might work in communist China but not in freedom-loving Liberty Township.   And I was in Liberty Township before anybody was in this debate. And I think knowing all that is more attractive to new residents than a deterrent. The Rinos of Lakota can all pack up and leave and take all their Latte Sipping Prostitutes with Asses the Size of Car Tires and Diamond Rings to Match with them, and Liberty Township will still sell its half-a-million-dollar homes to people fleeing broken, liberal areas seeking refuge. The truth of the matter, a lesson they are learning now, is that they are a small minority. This upcoming election will show them the truth, just as it did when Darby Boddy was voted in. They may have won over Isaac, which made them think everyone lacked resolve equally. But all it’s done is strengthen the opposition’s determination, which wasn’t a very smart idea on their behalf.  They brought all this on themselves.

What the 1.1 Million Award to Kimberly Edelstein Means: A first-of-its-kind case in Butler County that celebrates individual Constitutional protections

I think we’ll find, as our society matures and grows into an understanding of its place in the universe as an up-and-coming power that is recognized as such, that the American Constitution is one of the greatest works of philosophy ever produced on earth or any place else. That is why I tend to love judges and the idea of law enforcement. Not necessarily law enforcement itself, especially once human frailties are introduced that are tied to social predilections rooted in collectivist causes, but the essential beauty of the Bill of Rights and what the concept protects in the realm of human imagination and its potential as a fully developed individual. That’s why this case where the former Butler County magistrate Kimberly Edelstein is painful because everything is wrong with the struggles of life everywhere. Judges in our culture are the ultimate philosophers in that they adhere circumstances to the application of Constitutional principles, which isn’t easy when the demands of collectivism are applied, ancient beliefs in protection within the herd (civic memberships, fellowship on a bowling team, back-slapping at the company picnic) and the conflict with the development of individual integrity. And no matter how the judgment that a jury found against Judge Greg Stephens is viewed, the failure has not been captured by any post-court analysis, which is a shame. Representing herself, Kimberly Edelstein made a successful argument to a jury over a two-week trial starting in January of 2023 and ending early in February, where they awarded her 1.1 million dollars for religious discrimination where Stephens behaved in a retaliatory manner when Edelstein requested eight days off for Jewish holidays. And from there, their relationship deteriorated, the application of law and order in Butler County, Ohio, was compromised, and over what, religious differences? 

By the time the dust settles on this case, it will likely cost the taxpayers over 3 million dollars. And when you look at the law firms who have been involved, it’s clear that they are the only ones benefiting. The way the legal community operates in the background of all this money reminds me of a case I was involved in years ago with Todd Portune, who would eventually become one of the county commissioners of Hamilton County. But in a serious legal matter that I was involved in, he was an attorney who was also on the Cincinnati City Council, and he was representing both the aggressive party and the victim simultaneously. When I confronted him about this, he simply explained to me that was how it was. Those were the rules of the game. And that is the case in this Butler County legal case; when it wondered why the media puts a spin on the story that doesn’t capture the real essence of it, that’s because they all have the same legal firms working in the background. The interpretation of the law, as I stated, is so beautifully captured in our American Constitution, specifically in our Bill of Rights is not the same as the feeble interpretation that comes to the minds of the compromised people who have not evolved well as individuals and find corruption at the heart of their decision making. And that’s what’s unfortunate with this case between Judge Stephens and Kimberly Edelstein. Instead of them using their religious faiths as a background of individual development to uphold the excellent standards of Constitutional preservation, it has turned into a religious dispute that a couple of kids in the first grade might have over baseball cards. Stephens, a former pastor and apparently a very devout Christian, found the Jewish holidays not conducive to the kind of bench he wanted to run, and peer pressure with those involved added their opinions to the matter into what became a “disruptive” work environment. And after Edelstein requested her Jewish holidays off for observance, she was terminated just a few days thereafter, leading to this court case six years later. 

When I hear numbers like 1.1 million dollars, it sounds like a lot of money. And there are disputes within Butler County, especially the prosecutor’s office, that want a redo. They want to rob the jury opinion away from the award because it’s an embarrassing loss for them. Kimberly already successfully argued the case; Stephens was found guilty in the matter, and it’s unusual in the audacity of it because usually, people don’t defend themselves the way the former magistrate did in this case, but the legal parameters are quite clear. A jury of her peers found that Kimberly Edelstein was improperly terminated, her own Constitutional protections were violated, which any judge in the world should have known better, and it harmed her for further employment. When you study as a magistrate, your employment options are sort of limited to civil service. It’s not like the next job is right around the corner. It tends to be a very specific field with limited employment opportunities. So taking a stand based on Constitutional foundations is risky. But I would say that our society is better for it. The case law in this situation should serve as a warning on how to behave in the office. If people need to take time off for religious observance, that’s one of their rights. Manage your subordinates appropriately and be as fair as possible in the process. That’s basic management 101. But don’t use power and position, then peer pressure from the local lodge to attempt to undo an award from a jury. When a mistake is made, admit to it and move on. 

Kimberly Edelstein has lost a significant portion of her life and income to this Constitutional stand, so if you divide up the money awarded to her by the amount, it’s not very much money for the six years she has been fighting it. I will never understand religious disputes. I have read most of the major religious positions worldwide, and there isn’t much to indicate that religions should be at war in their texts. In all their cases, the religious texts attempt to elevate the mind by reading them to more significant concepts of existence. They should never decline in value to an argument over work holidays. An individual obtaining spiritual development, no matter how they get there, makes for a better employee in the workplace. Not one that has to pick between spiritual enlightenment and an oppressive boss that has the ability to control your paycheck. And among judges in the legal community, this basic level of sophistication should be part of the formula before they ever put on a robe for court. Such silly disputes should never occur, and if they did, everyone should be learning a hard lesson here. The real cost to taxpayers is in the mismanagement of the employees and the burden that parasitic lawyers apply in the background. That is the essence of this case. Mistakes by public employees, such as judges, and disputes over the merits of religion, especially one with common root sources, only feed the lawyers who influence everything in the background. And it took guts for Kimberly Edelstein to represent herself, to not further feed the legal system that is rigged against the taxpayers and the Constitution, and to win. All judges and prosecutors should be celebrating such an action because it brings the purity of law and order to Butler County for the good of everyone. But the anger that has formed in the wake comes over the ability of social groups, peer pressure application of collectivism against individuals such as Kimberly Edelstein, to apply free will to a living life. And behind that assumption is a very sinister position that is as anti-Constitution as an example could be found anywhere. This is the real cost of a case like this and a warning to all applications of a society that seeks law, order, and fairness for individuals, not a legal community that is blowing millions and millions of taxpayer dollars to preserve a system of corruption that is just behind the curtain of civic duty.

The Great Leadership of Todd Minniear on 55 KRC: Standing up for good Republican government voters can be proud of

You might have heard the fantastic Liberty Township Trustee Todd Minniear on 55 KRC with Brian Thomas talking about the overwhelming vote from the Butler County Central Committee to censor 22 Republican representatives for working with Democrats to elect a much more moderate Speaker of the House, which in many ways was political sabotage. As it turned out, the BCCC voted to censor those Republicans by a tremendous margin, which joins many other central committees across the state and will help start the path of removing those representatives from office. The next time they want to run, this censorship will make it more difficult for them to seek office. And this is how it has to be in these RINO hunting days where Democrats simply put an “R” next to their name and misrepresent themselves to the public who thinks they are voting for Republicans. I’ll put that radio interview here for everyone to listen to again because it’s an important political step and shows outstanding leadership on behalf of Todd.

Additionally, I am including the letter I read in my own video podcast on the matter, which Todd Minniear sent to the Butler County Central Committee ahead of their meeting to vote on behalf of censor, laying out the arguments. It was a windy day and a tough thing to read, so I also include it here as an example of how good government looks and taking a bold stand in favor of a position and sticking with it. It is wonderful to see area Republicans standing on integrity, but even better, it’s great to see a Butler County politician, especially in Liberty Township, Ohio, showing such leadership when it would be easier just to keep his head down and hope to get an invite to the latest wine tasting ceremony and be a popular guy with the locals. It’s much better to express courage, judgment, and integrity, which benefits our community more than just another baby-kisser in ways that are measured best when leadership is sought and appreciated. 

To: Butler County Central Committee Representatives

From: Todd Minniear – Liberty Township Trustee and Liberty 21 Central Committeeman 

I am writing to encourage you to vote yes this Thursday to censure 22 Republican representatives who voted in favor of Speaker Jason Stephens, and to commend Representatives Creech, Gross, and Hall for voting to support the Republican caucus nominee Derek Merrin.   

I am a novice in politics.  Embarrassingly, I didn’t get serious about protecting our conservative values until Governor DeWine violated my constitutional property rights by shutting down my business during Covid.  In response, I sued the Governor and the Ohio Department of Health/Amy Acton.  My suit was successful in enabling my business to open fully and saved many businesses across OH. 

The Covid attack strategy also highlighted the fact that the number 1 job of ALL levels of government is to protect our freedom.  This greater awareness inspired me to run for Liberty Township Trustee in November of 2021.  Thanks to hard-working conservative campaign supporters (several of them on BC Central Committee) I was elected.    

I share that background as context for why I am motivated to send you this note today.  As you know, we need our Republican representatives to protect our lives and life by moving conservative values forward and fighting against Democrats who continue to move further Left. 

The 22 out of 67 House Republicans who partnered with all 32 House Democrats to elect the speaker preferred by Democrats betrayed the conservative Republicans of Ohio, severed the Republican supermajority, and most certainly made deals with the Democrats that will greatly limit the fantastic opportunity we had to move conservative legislation forward. 

Thanks to the Butler County Republican Women’s Club, I had a chance to sit in on their last meeting where House Representatives Carruthers, Creech, Gross, and Hall answered questions on this topic.    

Here are the headlines driving my support to censure.

·       The Republicans went into caucus and agreed to vote to select a new speaker.  There were several House Representatives in the mix and Derek Merrin won.  Merrin should have received all Republican votes and been the new speaker.  However, in a shocking move, 22 Republicans partnered with all Democrats to elect Stephens.  When two of our Butler County representatives were asked at the Women’s Club meeting if this was “dishonest on the part of the 22” they said “yes” – the agreement was to unite to elect Merrin, but they reneged.  You can see how this has divided our party.

·       It is clear, and our Butler County representatives confirmed, Merrin is significantly more conservative than Stephens who was elected by the Democrats and the 22.  Having a less conservative speaker, one the Democrats supported, means certain conservative agendas will not move forward. 

·       Stephens understands he will need these Democrat votes again to be reelected two years from now.  He must stifle the conservative agenda to earn the Democrat votes.    

·       Why do you think all 32 Democrats voted for Stephens?  The specific deals made with the Democrats will become known.  Three of our four Butler County Representatives said, “deals are always made.”

·       The State Central Committee properly censured the 22 and the last list I saw showed ~20 other counties in Ohio censured, I believe Warren County’s Central Committee had a unanimous 100% vote to censure.  Butler County should be known as one of these leading conservative counties.

·       The vote for speaker is not a piece of legislation where reasonable minds can vote differently.  It was mission-critical for our party to be united and put a conservative speaker in place.  The 22 wanted a more moderate speaker and they sacrificed the strength of our supermajority, literally handing power to the Democrats to get their moderate speaker. 

·       Most importantly we must send a formal message to 1) the 22, that they made a tremendous error, 2) the 45 Republicans who stood for the party, including Rodney Creech, Jennifer Gross, and Thomas Hall that we commend them, and 3) any future representative, that they must stay true to the conservative principles of the party and don’t ever make this same mistake.

I have great respect for the Butler County Central Committee.  We are one of the few political bodies that consistently stand and vote based on conservative principles – principles over all else.   

Todd Minniear – Liberty Township Trustee

Many people don’t know that Todd was one of the most courageous people when it counted most who sued the State of Ohio and the DeWine administration for the Covid lockdowns. He was successful and was able to reopen his business in the heat of Amy Acton, the Health Director at the time, trying to shut down all businesses on the latest CDC policy of mass social distancing as a means of treating Covid 19 which was being spread from China to mass populations to harm them, likely purposefully, during an election year to implement the World Economic Forum Great Reset. I’ve read enough about the situation to see that the evidence for such statements is more than abundant. But at the time, it wasn’t so clear, and it took a lot of guts for Minniear to climb out on a limb like that, challenge the DeWine administration in court, and win. But that should be a lesson to all others. If you stand by the Constitution, you will find that our entire court system is built around it, and you will win most of your court challenges. That is the case with Lakota schools. That is the case with Covid restrictions. That is the case overall of Free Speech cases such as the one recently where a magistrate won a judgment against a Butler County Judge, which will be a topic for another article all its own. The Constitution works, and it is great to see people in politics who understand that basic premise. But it takes leadership and courage to stand behind law and order sometimes, and under tremendous pressure, Todd Minniear has done so and continues to. His leadership was evident in the Central Committee vote and continues to express itself in ways that greatly benefit the residents of Butler County’s Liberty Township residents. I wish there were more like Todd Minniear out there. But I’m happy to see that there is just one.

Fighting the Jab in Batavia, Ohio: Becoming part of the solution as Beverly Welbourne is leading the way

This is how it’s going to be for a long time. I had an excellent talk with Beverly Welbourne, a Ph.D. level expert on oriental alternative medicine, on the topic of shedding as a direct result of the Covid vaccines. It was more than obvious what the world of tomorrow would look like. Failing everywhere are the relics of the professional class, the network of liberalism that was shaped long ago to make up the components of the Liberal World Order, as Joe Biden referred to its potential collapse early in his administration. Their fear is real because, as a direct reaction to the imposition of that Liberal World Order, many people like Beverly have formed to fill in the gaps of failure and have exercised their freedom to apply self-reliance to their lives to avoid the shortcomings of institutionalism. And we see that effect on several fronts, especially in government medicine and public schools. Even as public education options continue to increase, with parents looking for alternatives to government schools and their many failures, government medicine has been an even worse disaster, which was most noticeable during Covid and the strategy of applying “the jab” as a reaction to the manufactured virus outbreak where the government essentially has become the drug pusher for Big Pharma. And those unfortunate enough to have been lured into taking “the jab” continue to see negative aftereffects. Statistically, premature deaths are up across the world; people are dying much younger than we would typically associate such a negative ailment, and the aftereffects of shedding are permeating even two years after the covid jabs were applied to people. 

Beverly explained to me that there is an upcoming meeting in Batavia on March 16th, 2023, at 7:15 PM at the County Engineer’s Office where her group is forming to meet with local politicians, mayors, commissioners, and health policy administrators to encourage them to do what is happening all over the nation. As we were talking, there was a report out of Florida in Collier County to ban the jab, and they have aligned with Lee County to the same effect. All over the United States, there is this push to eliminate the government policy of applying pressure to anybody in pushing for “the jab” as a strategy for dealing with Covid. Nobody knows much about this virus and the medicine the government has applied to deal with it. On all fronts, it has been a failure that the Liberal World Order has been very slow to admit to. It’s embarrassing for them, and they are dragging their feet in recognizing their role in the liability. So there are pockets of activism like what Beverly is involved in that are providing open resistance to these imposing government policies, and led mainly by local branches of the Republican Party, they are showing success at getting a political alliance to join in solutions, which start with eliminating “the jab” as a strategy to deal with the manufactured virus that was released from the Wuhan lab in China. In Batavia, they have a health administrator that is about to get a renewal on her position, and she has been “pro jab” from the beginning. They are pushing for replacing that position which will be addressed at this meeting. Apparently, to participate, you don’t have to be a local resident, but you could come from all over the country to express your feelings on this important matter. And the results are starting to show up in pockets like the Collier County example in Florida. 

Beverly Welbourne is also collecting stories on people’s miseries regarding Covid, the vaccines, and the resulting shedding cases that are a big problem for way too many people. So she encourages anybody with such stories to provide them to her so she can adequately chronicle those ailments in a way that the medical community would like to avoid. As with everything built by that Liberal World Order, the Administrative State that I mention all the time, which is essentially the weapon of the Deep State, people are establishing themselves as decentralized critics of those control mechanisms and exercising options in their lives to offset the sinister effects of that social failure. Government medicine is just as much of a disaster as government schools, the alignment of the Fed with our country’s financial building blocks, and the primary application of order in a society corrupted with social constructs that show massive outbreaks of violence in society as a result of the government trying to replace good parents as the primary instructional tool for social development. We don’t have to put up with these failures and accept their results. And it takes a lot of Beverly Welbourn’s out there to shake loose that evolving structure and to tell those stories that the Administrative State would otherwise avoid. There is nothing that they fear more than to have a bunch of people in these local communities, such as this upcoming Batavia event and these examples in Florida than to have people show up and let it be told their stories of devastation as a result of this government-mandated disaster that has become Covid. The first step in taking back your life from such impositions is to let someone like Beverly tell your story and get you pointed in the right direction as an alternative to the government mandates and peer pressure that has been applied to innocent people as a result of bad Covid policy.

Everyone initially knew that there were significant problems with the Covid vaccinations. There were going to be side effects that would be harmful to people. Yet the government pushed the medicine on the public anyway. There are major liability issues with this “jab” policy that many politicians just don’t have the heart to admit to until they are forced to. Events like this upcoming meeting in Batavia get things moving on that front but don’t expect massive news coverage. It will take a rebel media like this site to get the word out. Because all the affiliates of that Liberal World Order are in on the guilt of that liability, and by covering the stories, they will reveal themselves guilty of serious crimes and dangers that people have experienced even years after the shots were first applied. And the last thing they want is for people to get together with Beverly as a resistance to the “jab” policies and the government’s role in pushing it on the public. No government action will come to the rescue to save people from the dangers of Covid.

We will have to do it ourselves, just like most everything else, from publishing to medicine, education, and even economics. Government, by its nature, is prone to failure, and we have a lot of work to do on many fronts to correct that tendency. Working with the government to manage the government is the best option, and that is what this meeting in Batavia intends. But blind trust in that government to do the right thing is a fantasy at best. Left to their own devices, they will sell out to Big Pharma and become the mask of compliance to policies set by Pharma to use the government as their drug dealers. And that’s when innocent people get hurt in devastating ways. This is why Beverly is looking for help in fighting this issue in Batavia, Ohio, in a movement that is growing across the nation and is the best hope for corrective action moving into the future regarding the many government blunders of Covid and its relationship with Big Pharma, and all known consequences, from the beginning.  

Here are the directions and time for the meeting:

The Clermont County General Health District Advisory Council will hold its annual meeting on Thursday, March 16, 2023, in the conference room of the Engineer’s Office, 

2381 Clermont Center Drive, Batavia, Ohio 45103.   This is a public meeting and is scheduled for 7:15 PM.

Beverly Welbourne email: bjwelbourne@hotmail.com

Phone number: 513 489 9777

People can contact Beverly if they have questions about the meeting or a vaccine or shedding story that they are willing to share (whether or not at this meeting)

The Best Thing to Happen to Lakota: What success sounds like

I would have never been involved in the last election for school board members if Lynda O’Conner hadn’t asked me to. My kids are grown, my grandkids are being homeschooled, and I think public education is a trash heap anyway. You should join my Thanksgiving Dinners sometime and listen to us talk about politics. My kids likely will homeschool their kids all the way through graduation, we all despise it so much, and we hate the people even more.   Bible verses come to my mind a lot these days, given the amount of evil that is showing itself in the world, and this one from  Isaiah 49:26  states my feelings about the matter pretty well “And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I am the LORD.” Public schools are oppressive places filled with vile, evil people, and spending one cent of my tax money on them angers me greatly. It took Lynda over seven years to earn my trust enough to have something beyond a polite conversation, and in that process, I came to think that she might be able to help the public school system in some small way, which is always worth doing. I watched some of the school board meetings where other board members would gang up on her because she was the only conservative, and I wanted to help her. So I worked with her during the 2021 election, and Isaac Adi and Darbi Boddy were found and elected to the board, and Lynda then had a conservative majority, and I hoped that Lakota would improve into something functional. 

Make sure to tune into the 2-hour and 18-minute mark.

So it was a painful experience to watch Lynda immediately turn on Darbi Boddy in the way that she did and turn into everything I don’t like about public schools. It was ironic to watch the Lakota school board work so hard to get rid of Darbi because they simply didn’t like her by trying to force her to resign over an accidental porn link while communicating legitimate information to the public. Then to have Lynda end up with the same problem within a year, and to have those same school board members who were working against Lynda while Brad Lovell was the board president, into defending her as a sister. We were told that when it came to Darbi, porn links on websites were bad. But when it came to Lynda, it was an accident that wasn’t a big deal. And that is the kind of thing that I don’t like about public schools, where adults who have lived bad lives try to live through their children and play a make-believe game that if only the community would spend just a few more dollars on educating children, that everything in the world would be better. And up until this year, I thought that if good people were involved in school boards, maybe things could work in public education. But I have arrived at similar conclusions as one public speaker at the most recent March 6th meeting, Jamie Minniear, did at a school board meeting. Jamie took the emotion of the year and expressed it, I think, in a way worth noting, which I found reflected my thoughts as well. It’s hard to care about people in politics, but it happens, and that pain can’t be easily contained, which is evident in Jamie’s public statements:

“Lynda-I wasn’t sure how to best communicate my thoughts to you at this point. The lack of response to my many questions over the months, combined with your greeting me at Republican meetings in recent weeks as if all is well, is what prompted me to come here tonight. So much that has happened over the last couple of years with you, in particular, has been difficult to swallow. To say you have been dishonest is an understatement-in fact, I can’t think of anything you have been transparent and honest about. This started with you not supporting parent authority during COVID, then the Matt Miller disaster where you withheld public record requests, violated the 1st amendment by disallowing public comments about Mr. Miller, and in a shocking close to the string of dishonesty, in the face of you reading the superintendents admission to 1) having a sexual fantasy conversation about 3 Lakota students, and 2) his admission to publically advertising his wife to other men for sex on Craigslist-with that alarming information in hand, you said calmly at the November 21st board meeting – “… the board of education’s highest priority is the safety of its students, these claims against Mr. Miller were found to be false by multiple agencies,” Mrs. O’Connor, I ask you, how are the claims false when they are confessed to by Mr. Miller? Then, during that same statement, you went on with a celebration of Mr. Miller by saying, “the board would like to express its full support for Mr. Miller – Mr. Miller is an is an excellent leader in our district, and he is a shining light in Ohio.” How do you, with any sense of morality and respect for Lakota and the community, lift Mr. Miller up and celebrate him like a hero with Mr. Miller’s vulgar confession in one hand and the microphone in your other? You never discussed Mr. Miller’s confession. You first tried to hide it, then ignored it. But here’s the problem. When someone withholds and ignores information, it is a suppression of truth – this is lying. You withheld and ignored Matt Miller’s gross confessions. You lied to the community. In regards to the email you sent me yesterday trying to convince me not to come tonight. You are right about scripture saying go to a brother if you have a grievance with him. But there’s a second part to the scripture. Matthew 18:15-17 If a fellow believer hurts you, go and tell him—work it out between the two of you. If he won’t listen, take others along so that the presence of witnesses will keep things honest, and try again. I and many others have come to you individually, as scripture says, but you’ve done and said nothing. Tonight, is the second part of scripture which is bringing it out in front of others to have an account of the issue and keep things honest. Finally, with no attempt on your part to bring clarity or honesty to what happened, I’m asking you to discontinue greeting or engaging with me in public. I’m not interested in pretending all is well.”

I did this a few years ago, and it’s still very relevant, especially on this matter. Cliffhanger is my fast-draw shooting name at competitions.

Matt Miller was probably the best thing to happen to Lakota; I agree with many apologists on the matter. We are a better community because of Matt Miller. But not because of his work at the school but because of the network of sexual swingers, radical liberals, tax increase supporters, and outright villainy that was uncovered; as a result, going from our sheriff’s department to our school board and all the lawyers in between. As a community, we learned a lot, but more than anything, we have been confronted with a kind of evil that has always worked in the background, and we wonder why our kids grow up destroyed and unable to function in the real world. Look at their parents. And in many ways, the Matt Miller controversies brought all this to the surface and showed people to be what they always were, which leads to always tax increases to fill the financial voids of their empty lives. This is something that went far beyond simple political matters and moved into the struggle of life and death itself and the role of goodness or evil on earth in conflict over a simple curriculum. And when we are told that there is no CRT or that highly liberal and political teachers aren’t sexually grooming kids, it’s coming from the same people who told us that Darbi was bad for accidentally linking porn on her website but that Lynda was good because she had porn on her website for two months because the domain expired and nobody noticed. Both were accidents, but one was deemed bad by the established system, by the same people, yet everything was fine when it came to Lynda. Just as they told us, there was nothing to the Matt Miller story, even as we read it with our own eyes in the police report. 

Rather than get emotionally discharged over all these slaps in the face, I have been reminding people that this is an election year, and Lynda is up for consideration. Obviously, it will take more than just putting conservatives on the school board to fix anything and to make what our tax money is spent on just a little better. It’s going to take actually good people, and in my view of the world, Darbi Boddy does that. I would love to have four more on the school board like her. But this election will be different; it won’t just be about names on a Republican slate card or even a party endorsement. This is literally a fight between good and evil. People who would lie to our faces, manipulate our trust, and then carry that sentiment over into the education of children as if they were too innocent to see how the adults are really behaving. If we want to have even a bit of hope for the future of children, then the adults have to start behaving much better. And what we have seen coming from the Lakota school board over this last year has been bad, and kids are smart enough to understand why. It wasn’t Darbi Boddy who lied to the public and misrepresented herself. She is only guilty of not playing the game because she ran on a platform of not playing games. Because games are expensive and they don’t help educate children. But the hurt regarding Lynda is that many people wanted to help her do good things at Lakota, and in the end, she pushed away her supporters and was supported most by those who worked against her. And that level of betrayal is a timely enterprise because it happened when it counted most, during an election year, so people can now at least make a clear choice without a lot of friendly emotions getting in the way. We have seen the truth, and now we have an obligation to act on it. Which we will. 

It is always an honor to be hated by these kinds of people. If they like you, then you should worry.
Watch Isaac Pander to the Mob. Always judge people by what they do, not what they say

Regarding the 2-hour and 18-minute mark of the March 6 Lakota school board meeting video, it is easy to see what we are dealing with.  When my name was brought up, several people asked me how it felt to have people laughing at me during this meeting.  I replied in every instance that I was very honored to have those people feel so strongly.  Those types of personalities, such as the person pictured with the “removedarbiboddy.com” shirt, are what have infested these public schools with so much terrible behavior.  I thought Isaac’s reaction was interesting, especially after all the times he thanked me for all the nice words I sent in his direction.  But watching him in that format and actually leading the crowd says everything anybody needs to know.   There are the things that people say to get elected.  Then there is what they do to stay in favor of the mob.  And make no mistake about it; the mob is in charge at Lakota schools and all public schools.  Wanting to be liked by the mob is how we lose people like Isaac and Lynda to them.  So it is great to see someone, Darbi Boddy, sit in the middle of that mob and show such resilience.   And by doing what she has, we see more people following in that lead and ultimately changing the culture at Lakota into something that those laughing will be forced to take a lot more seriously.

A Government that Cheated on Us: The Covid lab leak and crimes against humanity

Remember what I said about Covid from the very first day until now. I have always talked about Covid as a bioweapon that came out of China and was intended as a way to wreck the American economy during an election year to get rid of Trump. In the first days of the lockdown announcements, I referred to it as a Pearl Harbor attack from climate activism, and my position is on record for all to see. Nobody else at the time anywhere, not Tucker Carlson, not Rush Limbaugh, nobody was willing to go there, but I did, which is essential as a validation to everything else I say. When I write something down, it’s a pretty good bet that it’s information you can trust, even when it sounds outlandishly crazy as the lab leak theory was when Covid first came to America. When Trump called it initially the “China Virus,” there were attempts to make it a racist statement to hurt the president, but he stuck with it because all the evidence at that time pointed in the direction of China as the destination where Covid came from. And now, three years later, we are talking seriously about the leak scenario, and even the Biden administration is now reluctantly admitting to the minimal scenario that they cannot confirm or deny that the virus was a lab leak from Wuhan, China. But everyone else, including the media, is fully embracing the idea, which is the next possible first step in correcting the behavior. Why, all of a sudden, after all this time? Well, likely because there is much worse information that is coming out, which everyone wants to take the edge off of, and they think that admitting to the leak story that it will consume people’s thoughts and hide the worse story, that Covid was actually a bioweapon made by the government for the purposes of fulfilling the World Economic Forum’s “Great Reset.” 

I thought it was astonishing that Woody Harrelson talked about Covid in such a derogatory manner on Saturday Night Live the way that he did. They would have had to know what he was going to say; there is nothing unpredictable about Saturday Night Live, which has been an overtly political show. They have been attempting to destroy President Trump in their own way with the now disgraced actor, Alec Baldwin. As NBC, Comcast, and a major progressive show based in New York City, they were always pro-Covid, pro-big government solutions, pro mask; they took the international WHO position from the beginning that Covid was something to be yielded to, meant to unite the governments of the world into fighting an out of control virus. And the purpose for them as they brought wine glasses together in their after-parties was for the greater good. Under danger, Americans might be willing to give up their Constitutional rights in favor of a centralized government controlled by the CDC and Dr. Fauci if they were terrified of death. So for NBC and the Saturday Night Live producers to put Woody Harrelson on live and talk about Covid as a crazy script that nobody would have ever believed is a significant position worth noticing. That is the mainstream entertainment industry distancing itself from what Covid was and what it did to our nation and the world. And it was a purposeful admission, not some unscripted accident.

When Saturday Night Live put Woody Harrelson on as the host, they knew what they were getting. It was the fifth time they had him host the show, so there is a relationship there where everyone knows everyone else. Even if it were claimed that Harrelson went off script with one of his drug-induced rants, which was part of the set-up for what Woody would eventually say about Covid so that if it went wrong, everyone could backtrack their statements. The point in putting Woody Harrelson on as the host that night was to give Saturday Night Live credibility on the matter of the Covid lab leak and to play their part in shaping the story as it is now being admitted to. But why now? Is it because the Biden administration is trying to deter China from getting too cozy with Russia in the conflict involving Ukraine and leverage over aggressions in Taiwan? These are bold positions considering that Biden was put into the White House by essentially China and the Deep State voter tampering that has gone on in the last elections, all easily proven and will be the centerpiece of Trump’s re-election campaign for the next two years. To put China at the center of the story and essentially throw them under the bus indicates that there is more hidden that the perpetrators hope will take the edge off the rest of the story. Actors like Harrelson don’t get where they are in life by not following instructions. The purpose for him to give his statement was to walk back the Hollywood position that has nearly destroyed their industry. They played along because the World Economic Forum insisted that it was good for saving the planet. Being dumb Hollywood types, they bought the Covid narrative without question because, as actors, they get paid to say what other people tell them to. And it’s the finance industry that tells them what to say, and they get their finance through the woke ESG-driven World Economic Forum. 

The gamble from the beginning was always the destruction of the populist movement, wherever it evolved in the world. Covid was meant to scare everyone into submission to an out-of-control virus, and this was a plan that was well rehearsed in advance before Covid was introduced to the world. Anybody paying attention to the Netflix releases on pandemics and the role-playing scenarios from the Bill Gates types at the time could see the writing on the wall. But the desired outcome did not come as they had hoped. Now there are all these books and congressional testimonies that are being done to understand what happened. I see it as an admission by our government that they have cheated on us, but their admission is one they think we will accept instead of the cold hard truth that if we do find out, we will be much angrier about. It’s like the husband who has been cheating on his wife, and he says to her that he had only done it that one time to that one woman. While a wife might not be happy about that, if it’s just one time with one specific person, then maybe she might understand with some context. But in truth, the husband has not just been cheating with that one woman but has been sneaking out for years to visit gay nightclubs, all the while that they were raising kids, and the behavior has been systemic; well, that’s a whole new level of betrayal that the wife can’t deal with. And that’s what it looks like Covid is. A deep, carefully planned attack that the Liberal World Order bet everything on, and they came up short, and now they have to reveal what they knew and who knew it. China then makes itself an easy target to throw under the bus. Because the problem is much bigger than just China, if the public looks in their direction, then perhaps the more serious stuff is that Covid was a bioweapon and not just some accident that leaked out of Wuhan, might be avoided. Because the truth is far worse, and now people are dealing with that very real prospect, and for many, that realization will be very painful.

Vivek Ramaswamy Enters the Presidential Race: It makes MAGA better and impossible for Democrats to compete

My general rule for weather is that I don’t care “whether” or not it exists; I do what I’m going to do regardless. I had time to shoot the video above about Vivek Ramaswamy entering the presidential race for 2024, so I did my usual thing and started talking. It happened to be that there were tornados in the area at the time, and the weather was actually quite bad. But as it has been in my life for all of it, I don’t bend the knee to nature. Rather, I find a way to do what I’m going to do regardless of the environmental conditions. I rode a motorcycle on the harshest winter days with many inches of snow on the ground for many years. I rode bicycles when my wife and I could only afford one car to work every day, while I worked two full-time jobs during the day, and we had a paper route on the weekends, and I never called off work due to weather. I have the same rule for sicknesses, which is why I found the government policies on Covid so revolting. Science is meant to be conquered. You don’t yield to the weather. You make it bow to you. So if I have something to do, like film a video on Vivek Ramaswamy’s presidential announcement, I’m going to do it and see how the equipment held up. In this case, it was mostly good, so I kept it because it was enjoyable to do, and I think it said some unique things about the situation. But there were a couple of times when all the rain that was falling filled up the microphone holes on the camera and made it hard to hear, making this one a unique presentation. 

But it’s a topic I must discuss because I like Vivek Ramaswamy; I know him a bit and enjoy his books. I think what he is doing with Strive Asset Management is one of the most critical strategic commitments in the world at the current moment because the follies of our day from the political villains is tied directly to the woke efforts of BlackRock and other money managers who have found the ultimate way to attack our country, through our 401K plans, with us financing our own destruction. Vivek is providing through Strive an alternative to that massive strategic imposition which, in the end, I think will literally change the world. BlackRock, who is essentially transferring wealth from America and building up China, as we speak, is being forced to rebrand itself primarily because of Vivek Ramaswamy’s efforts over the last few years, and that is something that doesn’t get talked about much on the various news pieces that Vivek does where he does a great job going onto all the big television shows and explaining all this to a public that typically glazes over when talk of finance is involved. That’s how woke companies with political activism in mind have gotten away with this massive imposition, is that people assume that it’s all too complicated for them, so they don’t pay attention to how the enemy has been attacking our American infrastructure through finance replacing ground troops. So I’m quite a fan of Vivek Ramaswamy; once history remembers these days, he will be one of the people credited with saving the United States and its financial system. So it was a proper metaphor that there was rough weather during my recording because that’s how it is presently. It’s rough out there, but the show must always go on. 

I personally think it’s good for people like Vivek Ramaswamy to be in the presidential race. I’ve been listening to all of Trump’s speeches and what sounded good in 2016 when he won the White House for the first time; it’s starting to sound old now. I don’t think anything hurts Trump for 2024, his voters have revenge on their minds, and they will vote for him out of sheer spite for what our government has done over the last five years, starting during 2020 while Trump was still in office with the impeachments, the investigations, Covid, election tampering through Facebook, the FBI, and crazy Covid rules that were not bound by Constitutional principles. Trump’s message of small government fighting against big government is a tired game, and he has allowed himself to be pulled into a victim state, and he needs to turn toward more positive messaging to gain those voters over the 30% threshold. No matter who is running against Trump, the president will keep his base support. Whether it’s Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, Mike Pompeo, or Mike Pence, anybody who enters the presidential race will run behind President Trump, and Trump will be the Republican nominee. But I think Vivek Ramaswamy, because of his fabulous media presence, will help change the dialogue. I think the same about Ron DeSantis; he has succeeded in Florida. And there is a lot of positive governing to talk about. Like it always is, competition makes people better. I think these challengers for the presidential nomination will help shape the national dialogue away from so many negative things, which is perfectly justifiable, and put them on an elevated platform for an American vision. I see only good things happening because Vivek Ramaswamy is in the race. I also read Ron DeSantis’s book on Tuesday when it came out, and it’s quite good. It’s good to talk about all his successes in Florida as compared to the Biden administration. It’s a great continuation of the MAGA movement even as Trump has been exiled from Washington D.C. politics. But in the end, it won’t matter; Trump will be the nominee. But the competition will change politics on the national stage as we know it, all in good ways.  The best thing that will happen is that the political left will not be able to compete with the Republican messaging. These are not the same Republicans we had in 2016, where Trump outlasted many challengers. Largely these new Republicans are stars from the MAGA movement, and they have success stories to tell that were not present in 2016. It’s a very different political world now than what it was. If Vivek talks daily about money management and the dangers of BlackRock using 401K plans to destroy America with wokeness, or Ron DeSantis can show how liberal states have failed yet Florida has prevailed, the political left has no answer to any of these things, and they will be wiped out in 2024. They have no bench depth, only really old hippies from the 60s who are watching their drug-induced dreams fall apart in front of their faces. The media hasn’t caught on to it yet, but the cracks are more than evident. The Democrats will have a hard time dealing with these MAGA Republicans running for office, forcing Trump to redefine his message of the Power of Positive Thinking and restore to America what great possibilities are available under good leadership. And I can’t think of a better representation of that positive message than Vivek Ramaswamy. I think, in the end, Trump will be better off. Before it’s all said and done, I would personally like to see Vivek Ramaswamy in a position to restore greatness to our economy in some challenging days that will come because he is undoubtedly the best man for the
