Testimony about UFOs to Congress Under Oath: Governments that lie to people are far more dangerous than aliens

This is the problem with collectivist-based systems; I told you guys what was happening with the UFOs.  Nobody is ever in charge when the Administrative State puts forth an explanation.  This is also why studying ancient cultures and what you can learn from their attempts and mistakes is good.  Collectivism has yet to work where society behaves like some organism of cells in a body without a brain.  In such a society of goo, it’s easy to hide genuinely terrible things, and that is the summary of what kind of UFO testimony has been put forth to members of Congress under sworn disclosure.  To settle the matter, I have been spending a lot more time this year talking about UFOs because I didn’t want people to be shocked when the government started talking in a way that would migrate to full disclosure.  That is our government and people from other planets, and not just one species, but many, over ten have been talking for a long time.  And they have been sharing information all that time and hiding it from the general public for all the same reasons churches didn’t want people reading the Bible for themselves but wanted a priest to interpret everything for them or a regional king so that there would be some insulation between our society and these interplanetary interactions.  In this increasingly open world, it’s getting harder to keep quiet.  It was much easier back when three networks performed broadcast television and a few radio stations.  The government could control, to some extent, the newspapers, and everyone reported the same sort of thing, as strong personalities headed most corporations.  But in these days, where the Administrative State essentially runs like a blob of collectivism, and nobody is really in charge of anything, the reports to Congress that UFOs have been coming and going and that it is more than machinery that we have been gathering and analyzing, but people too has been shocking to some.  It’s information that isn’t new but is bursting forth because of all the other things that are suddenly much worse to realize. 

Because of mass collectivism, nobody is ever responsible for anything, and now that the mistakes of steering society in that direction have been obvious and are falling apart everywhere, that same mass organism of mass blob is trying to conceal itself with UFO talk, just as I have been saying for a few years now was going to happen.  I have known about this for a long time and am not surprised by these recent reports.  It’s only to those who have assumed that the government’s secrecy on the matter had a point of social safety where the disillusionment comes into play.  The evidence shows that visitors from all over the current galaxy and universe, who exist on many dimensional levels, are relatively abundant.  But it doesn’t fit well within the understanding that people are too busy taking their kids to soccer practice to wrap their minds around the concept.  But in most ancient cultures, they interacted with elements of the supernatural, most of which sound like modern-day UFO abductions.  Today’s governments have bypassed that information and contained it within a safety narrative to show society they were in control of the situation and needed tax money to keep mysterious things from coming in the night and abducting them to anal probes.  In the past, as governments rose and fell, these stories fell to religions to explain, which embodies most of what we know about mythology. 

My position on UFOs is not that they are a big deal but that we are essentially them.  We come from all over the place.  And if they were so much brighter than we were, we’d know it by now.  The government has maintained the illusion that they are superior for their own needs to obtain power, driven by mass collectivism.   But now there are so many crimes that have been committed by government, the mass tampering with the global economy, the threat of technology to take over the world essentially, the deaths caused by government bioweapons such as Covid, and the fake wars that are losing their effect on the world stage.  Nobody cares about Ukraine, Russia, or the other propped-up bodies on Earth, such as China.  People are sick of being lied to.  They are sick of stolen elections.  They are sick of the government trying to micromanage their lives with vaccines, fake media, and corrupt politics, all run by the blob of collectivism presented to us as abundant, global communism.  I have said for years that as reckless as government has been, with all its lack of leadership, it exists for the animal impulses of sex, food, and material acquisition which is evident if you ever visit the suburbs of current-day Washington D.C., and nothing else.  For all the power of government that it has acquired through secret knowledge, it has essentially wasted it all on nonsense, which is the net result of the congressional testimony of July 2023, and the media reporting on it as if it’s one of the biggest news stories in the history of the world.  It’s not. 

Studying ancient cultures is fun for me and has been infinitely fascinating because people believed what they did and for how long.  And to what extent they invested themselves into a future and how successful their string of thoughts was.  I concluded that most civilizations received a jump start by interacting with celestial travelers.  Those travelers aren’t much more intelligent or wiser than we are today; they have just developed a few more toys to play with because they come from societies that lasted longer and had the means to build them.  But they have the same problem everyone else does; they don’t have stable communities that last infinitely, and the struggle between individual leadership and classic blob collectivism is a genuine problem not just here on Earth but throughout the galaxy.  And it’s only at the end of such a cycle, as we are in now, that reluctant governments are finally willing to admit to what has been known all along.  The evidence is all around us and is grotesquely evident in places like Peru, where deforestation has revealed many ancient cultures that predate the Incans by many thousands of years.  Probably, tens of thousands of years.  Perhaps hundreds and millions, and there is nothing left of those cultures because of the rate of erosion geologically.  It is only now that this criminal government, with all its tampering with the human race and is now stacked up with mistake upon mistake upon error, that they are willing to give up a little power of knowledge to hopefully suppress their truly criminal complicity in destroying the human race yet again, for the thousandth time.  The UFO talk is to cover up their crimes against humanity.  Sure, the UFOs are real.  The interaction with many species from many other planets all over the galaxy is quite common.  Unfortunately, they have been talking to the wrong people, the governments of the world, who have been approaching them with the false philosophy of kingly control over mass populations.  And as it always has, that is precisely how you destroy a society, and advancement stops every time.  UFOs and their occupants are not a big deal.  But governments that lie to their people are one of the most destructive elements in the universe.  And is the real story we should be concerned with.  The government keeps the information a secret for national security reasons. But they ask for more power based on all the things you don’t know that only they interpret are dangerous. Trust them! But experience says they are far more dangerous than what aliens might bring with them.  They ask for more power over things only they know about for reasons only they understand, which was a con game from the beginning.

The Market Decides Success, Not Governments: Modern Monetary Theory’s attempt to inject Marxism into the world economy

The good news is that there is an obvious path to victory regarding all the scary intentions of the Deep State and their Administrative State terrorists.  It all comes down to the classic failures of Marxism and the incredible intelligence of capitalism, as expressed by Adam Smith and his fantastic book that every leader of every country should read, The Wealth of Nations.  Hidden behind this current corporate partnership with the government, which has become apparent during Covid, the long-established plans were set bare, and now we know what they were up to and for what reasons.  Governments want to avoid violating countries’ Constitutions by backdooring everything with corporate loopholes.  And those who lobby governments and put money in the pockets of politicians, who secretly want to control the world, use governments’ power to extort corporations into playing along for their own good. The fear of regulations by governments forces corporations to play in partnership with the government to give the government power that the Bill of Rights doesn’t allow.  And once these forces control the finance industry, you see the genuinely frightening tyranny we are presently in.  But, the entire concept, which is wrapped up in failed Marxism from the start, is the very foundation of the whole scheme, and yet the attackers do not understand the trajectory of failure, and that includes people like George Soros, Rupert Murdoch, and his family at Fox News, and all the major studio heads.  The plan was to fake the Marxist takeover of the world’s major corporations with this arraignment using phony made-up money using Modern Monetary Theory to buy off the depleted stock values, tricking CEOs into believing that the next excellent value system would be ESG, which is well underway now.  But in the end, the market is in charge, not the government or corporations, and once the smoke clears, all these characters will learn some hard lessons.  

It was embarrassing to see all the top people in the industry miss the market trends in the latest movies hitting during the summer.  For instance, the box office disappointment of the latest Mission Impossible is a good representation.  The belief was that because Top Gun: Maverick by Tom Cruise made over a billion dollars, his next film would do just as well because it’s another action picture.   When Mission Impossible started off slow, the industry panicked because the assumptions were all wrong.  Mission Impossible is a different kind of film than Top Gun, so the trend was concerning. At the same time, The Sound of Freedom was a surprise smash hit and has been very profitable for Angel Studios.  Now this is where it gets tricky because BlackRock, State Street, and Vanguard as money managers are now the top stockholders for all these capitalist endeavors, from movies to fast food restaurants, and they have bought that stock and control with largely phony money, with Larry Fink’s relationship to the fed, Janet Yellen and the gang.  Yes, the same Janet Yellen who loves communists and was seen bowing to the ruler of China, President Xi Jinping.  By printing fake money at the Federal Reserve and dumping it into Wall Street, to Fink and the gang, this partnership has caused even these movie companies to stop making movies for actual stock value, driven by box office results, and instead to appease that new market of partnership with the government because the government can then print unlimited amounts of money.  But people still vote with real value for what they consume in the marketplace.  See where this is headed?

And Rupert Murdoch, in all his foreign arrogance, thought that Fox News had a lot more power than it did.  This is the same kind of stupidity that you will hear at dinner parties among the very wealthy, where they can’t smell their own bad breath, and nobody will tell them so because they like rubbing shoulders with the rich and powerful.  They believe people are too stupid to think for themselves, so they will buy anything corporations put out because that’s what people do.  And I knew many people who believed that Ron DeSantis would be the guy because Fox News picked him to suppress Trump for the next presidential election.  I listened to people try and tell me last year that Trump had no chance because either Fox would sink him or the government would destroy him, so I needed to get over my support of Trump.  It was never going to happen again.  Then I would tell them, “Guys, the government is not in control.  Corporations are not in control.  The marketplace is in charge and will ultimately decide.”  People think Rupert Murdoch must know something special just because he is rich.  Sometimes people get lucky, and many rich people are in that condition.  Or, they are more ruthless than others and don’t have that valve of morality that tells them not to crush everyone around them needlessly.  Whatever it is, they aren’t that smart usually, and they have a false belief generally in the power their money can buy, fake or real.  Ultimately, as Adam Smith figured out in 1776, the invisible hand of markets is driven by desire.  Fulfillment of that desire is profitable.  Controlling that desire with market controls like disguised Marxism through Modern Monetary Theory still leaves people with resentment and anger, which is why things are these days as they are.

The attack of private investors into government, and government into corporations, to bring about economic philosophy that will change the world is just as stupid as the concept that Ron DeSantis would destroy Trump and ultimately put control of the populist movement into their hands.  The Deep State, which controls all these forces through various means, wants to think they can continue to put their people into the American government.  So far, they have been successful because they have stayed in secret. But now that pressure has forced them out in the open, it’s a different story.  They are learning that market value is real, whether it’s movies at the theater or presidential picks for the Executive Branch.  These people were never really in charge.  They only gained a political advantage through deceit.  But once that cover was blown, which it is, all their assumptions about how markets work, and any need, fell apart in front of their faces.  And that’s how all this will end as well.  The control of all the major corporations through stock buys built off Modern Monetary Theory by complete losers like Janet Yellen, Ben Bernanke, and Jerome Powell was always going to fail because it assumed that value could be controlled by printed money, not market need.  And now that they are all caught, and there are many tens of thousands of perpetrators, they should all be going to jail or punished in as severe a way as possible for messing with the money supply with an attempted Marxist takeover that essentially has wrecked the lives of millions of people.  And they have been caught, just as Rupert Murdoch has been seen, believing they had more power than they did and that people would serve the markets rather than the markets serving the people, as it would always be.

Say No to Globalism: Pedophilia is the true objective behind the charities, Marxism, and climate change

When I think of globalism, and I will provide lots of examples in the weeks to come to support this statement, I think of the Rothchilds controlling around 100 trillion dollars of global wealth, worshiping ancient bloodlines they believe are the roots of all the royalty on planet earth from the beginning, telling King Charlie and the royal family what to do, who also controls around 100 trillion dollars of wealth, all who have been exposed by the terrible exploits of the BBC celebrity Jimmy Savile and the pedophilia ring on the island of Jersey, just north of France. I am convinced that most of what is stated at the World Economic Forum, which is a partnership with King Charlie and Klaus Schwab and the old Nazi roots of both men to continue with the occult practices of yesteryear, which is ultimately the consumption of children sexually, and in their life essence which is disguised behind Liberal World Order ideas propped up by charities, Marxism, and climate change, to essentially hide the terrible things they do because they have acquired so much wealth and power that they use it to stay above the law. Those are stories for another day but serve here to explain that there is nothing at all good about Globalism. We are at a point where we’ve seen what they are up to, which is essentially using Modern Monetary Theory to hijack the world’s corporations and to gain Marxist power over the entire world by collapsing their economies and replacing that value with phony money they printed for an all-out assault on our nations. What all globalists are proposing is essentially a military attack against our country, and that is the heart of what the next election is all about. And now, we need to essentially do what President Eisenhower didn’t when he identified this globalism problem in his last speech as president. He saw what was happening and warned President Kennedy about it. Yet within just a few years, Kennedy was assassinated by the CIA in what we now know is no longer a conspiracy theory.

Globalism is a complex concept that refers to the interconnectedness of countries and their economies, as proposed by the United Nations and the ghost group for Marxism, the World Economic Forum. It is the idea that what happens in one part of the world can have an impact on other parts of the world. While they talk about the benefits to globalism, challenges and risks are associated with it. One of the biggest challenges is how to ensure that the benefits of globalism are shared fairly and that the risks are managed effectively. This requires cooperation and coordination among countries and a commitment to transparency and accountability, which clearly isn’t happening.

Here is President Eisenhower’s farewell speech as he gave it.  “My fellow Americans, as I stand before you today, I am filled with a sense of gratitude for the privilege of serving this great nation. For eight years, I have had the honor of holding the highest office in the land, and I have done so with humility and a deep sense of responsibility.

As I prepare to leave office, I want to take this opportunity to share some reflections with you. I want to talk to you about the challenges we have faced together, the progress we have made, and the work that remains to be done.

When I took office in 1953, the world was a very different place. We were in the midst of a Cold War, and the threat of nuclear annihilation hung over us like a dark cloud. Our economy was struggling, and our society was still grappling with issues of inequality and discrimination.

But despite these challenges, we never lost sight of our core values as a nation. We remained committed to freedom, democracy, and human dignity, and we worked tirelessly to advance these ideals both at home and abroad.

Over the past eight years, we have made significant progress on many fronts. We have strengthened our economy, expanded access to education and healthcare, and made great strides in the fight against discrimination and injustice.

But we cannot rest on our laurels. There is still much work to be done, and we must remain vigilant and committed to our goals. We must continue to work for peace and understanding both at home and abroad, and we must never forget the lessons of our past.

As I prepare to leave office, I want to thank each and every one of you for your support and your commitment to our great nation. I have been blessed to serve as your President, and I will always cherish the memories of this remarkable journey.

May God bless you, and may God bless the United States of America.”

And here is Klaus Schwab in 2020, speaking in full-throated support of globalism “As we move forward in these unprecedented times, it is clear that a great reset is necessary. Our systems and structures have been exposed as fragile and unsustainable, and it is time to rebuild them in a way that prioritizes the well-being of all people and our planet. We must seize this moment to create a fairer and more equitable world, where access to healthcare, education, and basic necessities are not determined by one’s wealth or status. Let us come together and work towards a brighter future for all.” Klaus Schwab, for those who do not know, is the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum and has been closely monitoring the global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. He believes this crisis can potentially reshape the world and create a new global cooperation and solidarity era. Schwab has called for a “Great Reset” of the global economy and society, which would involve rethinking our priorities and values in order to build a more sustainable and equitable future. He also stresses the importance of investing in digital technology and innovation to help us navigate the challenges of the post-COVID world.

Then here is a speech by King Charles from the same Davos event in June of 2020 “My fellow countrymen, it is with great concern that I address you today. We are facing a time of unprecedented change and uncertainty as the world grapples with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and its vast economic repercussions. But alongside these immediate challenges, we must also confront the longer-term threats posed by climate change, social inequality, and the rise of authoritarianism. It is in this context that many have proposed a so-called “Great Reset” of our global systems and institutions. And while I am sympathetic to the goals of this movement, we must be careful to proceed with caution and thoughtfulness.

The Great Reset, as I understand it, seeks to fundamentally transform our economic, social, and political structures in order to create a more sustainable and equitable world. This is a noble goal, and one that I believe we must work towards. But we cannot simply tear down the existing systems without considering the potential consequences. We must engage in dialogue and debate, and we must ensure that any changes we make are done in a way that is transparent, inclusive, and equitable.

Furthermore, we must also be mindful of the challenges that lie ahead. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the fragility of our global systems, and we must work together to build resilience and preparedness for future crises. We must also address the urgent need to combat climate change, protect our natural resources, and promote sustainable development. And we must do all of this while upholding the values of democracy, human rights, and the rule of law.

In conclusion, I believe that the Great Reset presents us with both opportunities and challenges. As we move forward, let us do so with a clear sense of purpose and a commitment to working together. Let us engage in open and honest dialogue, and let us ensure that any changes we make are done in a way that is fair, just, and sustainable. Only then can we create a world that is truly fit for all. Thank you.”

Essentially what has been talked about regarding globalism is theft, stolen wealth propped up with phony money to steal real wealth from America to serve their illustrious schemes.  Its essentially a communist trick to attempt to convince countries of great value to share all their hard work and innovation under the threat of new technology that they poise is a big and scary new Big Bad Wolf in the world, and that only together can we defeat it.  But when they say “all countries must participate,” they mean it as a threat.  The purpose of the history lesson here is to show that it started to really get out of control during Eisenhower’s administration, and he knew it at the time.  This globalism thing is not something that just occurred, it has been many years in the making, and it has taken advantage of the niceness of our character.  But always, there has been a hidden menace, and ever so softly we have gradually learned about it over time, and from their own mouths.  They used a crisis they created in Covid to show their cards on globalism, and their intense desire to establish a coup against America’s pick for president, just as Eisenhower began to learn about during his term and Kennedy felt the wrath.  Nixon was done wrong by globalism even though he tried to play along with the creation of China on the world stage.  Henry Kissinger ended up selling him out, as they all do.  Trump is just the latest in a long line of globalists victims who learned all too late that the world has already claimed us as theirs; they don’t respect our rights, liberties, or laws.  And now they are in our faces about it, thinking it’s too late to turn back.  But it’s not.  We can still defeat globalism, and we must.  First, though, we must recognize it for the threat it is and what it’s really about.  Regarding the pedophilia trade by globalists, which by the facts, seem to go together as one and the same, I will provide a much more detailed exposition of that problem in the days to come.  Formally, I heard the stories but didn’t believe it until I saw that network in my own neighborhood up close and personal.  Pedophilia and crimes, in general, are a byproduct of globalism because the chaos of not having established legal parameters to establish moral behavior has unleashed the worst of people’s inner secrets.  And when they think globalism will conceal their vile actions, they indulge more in the worst sins of existence.  We now have a paper trail that establishes this fact beyond speculation or conspiracy.  And it is now upon us to say No to Globalism.  For all kinds of reasons.  But mainly because it’s wrong, parasitic, and an evil unleashed upon the world that must be defeated.  And one that we must recognize as such after many years of playing along to get along.

Picasso and Darbi Boddy in Lakota: The power of Leadership and temptations of blue pill politics

Like all good art, I think it reaches beyond the obvious world and articulates a core problem in the Lakota school district. And it’s pretty good, a work of art that was supposedly done by a student that an angry mom put on Darbi Boddy’s webpage after a school board meeting on Monday, the 17th of July, 2023. Darbi had once again made news, or rather Lakota did. I watched what I could of the meeting in small segments, and one thing that was clear to me was best represented in that Picasso-like painting, a caricature of Darbi Boddy, one of the most controversial school board members in the entire United States, and how kids have come to think of her. Art often says all the things that a complicated subject can’t say in an obvious way, and this artistic rendition of Darbi certainly does, despite its obvious negativity. This time the controversy that made the news was that Darbi mentioned “blood libel,” which is a very real thing. And that caused quite a stir that the media in Cleveland, Ohio, was talking about, and it provoked a reaction out of school board member Kelly Casper that was quite astonishing. The school board had been talking about the recent Supreme Court case where affirmative action was struck down for college entry. And when Darbi mentioned that Lakota should also drop those types of hiring requirements, Kelly Casper said that Lakota never practiced that type of conduct. But immediately, the most recent diversity tzar comes to mind, a person who clearly was assigned the job because of the color of their skin. To me, this is a normal meeting. To the pro-public-school people, this was a devastating conversation because what they want is a blue-pill life where nobody knows anything; they just live their lives oblivious to the outside world. They certainly don’t want to talk about affirmative action as it relates to human resource issues or blood cults that might infiltrate the school’s culture and destroy all the children.

Yet what struck me while watching all this wasn’t just the defensiveness of Kelly Casper, who has a friend in school board president now in Lynda O’Conner, but in the role reversal that Lynda now played against Darbi in public that was quite ostentatious. I’ve known Lynda for a long time and remember when she felt that the other school board members were picking on her continuously just a few years ago. The previous school board president, Brad Lovell, singled Lynda out because she was supposedly the only conservative member on the board, and things were pretty contentious. Now in that exact same role, as Brad used to have, Lynda has essentially become Brad. I know how it made her feel, so I can certainly understand and sympathize with how it made Darbi feel. And this started before Darbi became such a controversial figure. If Lynda had treated Darbi fairly, as she had throughout that last election, Darbi would have been a much different person in office. Instead, when the election was over, Lynda moved to ostracize the newly elected member, who never misrepresented herself as anything but a Tea Party candidate. And once elected, she stayed true to the type of people who had just elected her, which is a significant portion of the very conservative region we all live in within the Lakota school district.

Fantastic Interview that explains the magnitude of the problem

Of course, the students see all this, and they form their opinions and based on the way that Lakota has treated Darbi, led by Lynda O’Conner in this case; it’s no wonder that if a young person reporting what they saw through art would make such a picture of Darbi as was put forth in the summer of 2023.  In the picture, Darbi looks like some patriotic witch with the words “America” cast in a condescending way in the background.  When we wonder why many kids these days become Democrat activists, here is a case where it’s happening right in front of our faces within one of the most prestigious public schools in the country.  If it was happening there, it was happening everywhere.  The leadership at Lakota, which is something that transferred from one person to another in the seat of President, had shown students that conservative opinions were not welcome and that people who expressed them would be punished and made fun of.  Watching that Monday meeting, it’s quite clear that Lynda despises Darbi and doesn’t respect the voters who put her there.  It was Lynda who changed political positions.  Darbi is doing what Darbi was always going to do.  Voters want someone who represents them in public, not people who fall in love with job titles and will do anything to have them.  That is what has caused many of the problems in public education, and it’s not a mystery why students come to believe what they do about politics.  The big question is why did Lynda O’Conner essentially become Brad Lovell when all that changed was the name of the person who was the school board president.  And as to a bigger question, because apparently, Isaac Adi turned hard left after the election too, what makes people who were supposed to be Republican representatives turn into RINOs?  Why is it so important to them to be accepted by their peers?  Why aren’t they more like Darbi Boddy and fighting for the voters who elected them?  Why do they think it’s acceptable to behave one way during elections, but an entirely other way, a much more Democrat way, once they are sitting in the president’s seat on a lowly school board for a public education system that is an obviously dying model socially. 

I love the Jewish people; without them, a Bible wouldn’t exist. Yet like all people, bad things do happen when they lose their way. In the past, they have fallen to Baal worship, and these days, the temptations toward evil are all too easy. And they are just as tempted as anybody.

All that adds up to the painting of Darbi Boddy by a student who had a parent put it on Darbi’s website as if to say it all with a simple visual.  The poor leadership that runs these schools all over the country and are not supposed to be about politics at all are actually all about politics, liberal politics.  Democrat social positions.  And there is only one acceptable viewpoint.  Conservatives are not allowed, not real ones, anyway.  Public schools want to waste tax money on nonsense, and what they want to teach is unamerican and destructive to conservative values.  And the only reason this is a clash is because Darbi is refusing to change her beliefs under the pressure of the group consensus on the board.  At a point where I wanted to help her because I don’t like to see people being picked on, Lynda was Darbi, and Brad Lovell went well out of his way to treat her terribly from the seat of the president.  And it looks like Lynda wanted so much to turn the tables that she worked hard to become the president, only to become Brad?  This conflict is clear in that artistic rendition of Darbi.  It shows how Democrats who run these public schools see opposition to their strategies for children, and it’s quite an honor for them to feel that way.  But the more mysterious quandary is in how Lynda became what she used to hate.  Or did she ever hate that treatment at all?  Whatever the case, the students see what’s going on, their opinions about life are being formed, and the slant of their political beliefs are being shaped.  And what they see is a fault of leadership as it exists and the power it provides to people who are obviously ill-equipped to handle it.

A Review of ‘The Sound of Freedom’: God’s Children are not for sale

Boy, that was a good movie, the Sound of Freedom. I intended to see it on the 4th of July when Angel Studios released it, a bold move considering they were putting a critical box office movie in the middle of summer between the new Indiana Jones film and the latest Mission Impossible project. I like these Angel Studios guys; I’ve worked with independent studios in the past, namely the Atlas group for the Atlas Shrugged films, so I have an appreciation for how difficult it is to make a movie in the first place, especially one with a big message like the Sound of Freedom has. But that’s only half the battle. Getting a movie distributed through the theaters is the biggest hurdle, and it’s been in that way that finance has been able to take over the movie industry. Putting this movie out on the 4th of July was hard because it competed with other big studio films with big marketing budgets. I think we should see this kind of thing more often because people hunger for good movies. And it’s usually not an either-or kind of decision. There’s room for Indiana Jones. And there is room for Sound of Freedom. I honestly didn’t expect much from the Sound of Freedom. I thought the movie would have a good message and was important to support. So when I tried to buy tickets for the film on July 3rd and 4th when my wife and I had some free time to see it, I wasn’t too disappointed that I couldn’t find any theaters that weren’t sold out in my area, or if they did have open seats, that we couldn’t find two together. We weren’t going to go to the movies and not sit together; that was ridiculous. So I waited until the following weekend, and we had the same problem. But we did manage to find two open seats for a Saturday afternoon in the third row, which I usually wouldn’t do because it’s too close to the screen. But we bought the tickets, went to see the movie, and were both blown away by what we saw.

The Sound of Freedom was actually, technically, a great film. It reminded me of Schindler’s List, one of my all-time favorite films. But pacing-wise, it reminded me of the Clint Eastwood-directed American Sniper. The Sound of Freedom was of excellent quality, on the level of those kinds of movies, and at a different time, this would undoubtedly be the Best Picture of the Year for the Academy Awards. The director, Alejandro Monteverde, put a lot of love into this film, and it sure showed. It was more of an action-adventure picture, more like Taken, rather than a documentary on child sex trafficking. To be honest, after seeing lots of clips from Jim Caviezel, I thought this film would be more of an activist movie. It certainly was; this film was made by really good people for good reasons, from top to bottom. But it was a far better movie than what usually comes out of those intentions. The director Alejandro Monteverde made a great movie with Jim Caviezel and the cast based on the real-life exploits of the Homeland Security agent Tim Ballard without knowing how the movie would get to the public. The movie has been done for five years; it was first going to be distributed by Fox, then Disney owned the rights, and they sat on it for a long time. Eventually, this new studio, Angel Studios, came along and picked up the rights. They are the studio behind the very well-done television show, The Chosen. So they picked it up and brought it to movie theaters.

Since most of the film production was Mexican, it brought the life of the cartels into sharp focus in ways that I hadn’t seen before. It was a very gritty movie that put viewers into the world of sex trafficking without being oppressively difficult to deal with. The Sound of Freedom walked that very fine line between being tasteful and hopeful, with Jim Caviezel playing the real-life Tim Ballard with such optimism that it wasn’t hard to fall in love with these people. I say all the time about movies, one of the biggest problems is that the writers of these things often don’t have much life experience. You can see that in big studio pictures where the writers clearly hang out in Santa Monica, and their perspective is from that world. The Sound of Freedom was written and directed by people who know the world’s dark underbelly but have not become hopelessly lost in it. What ended up on the screen is really something stunningly special. A movie everyone can enjoy that is much more optimistic than I thought it would have been. And not to give away spoilers, but I think it’s important to note because I honestly wasn’t fighting too hard to see this movie because they are usually depressing. While you want to know about these problematic subject matters, who wants to experience a depressing story? But I can say this movie has a very happy ending. I will likely see it many more times because it really was inspirational, hopeful, and bold. 

At the end of the movie, Jim Caviezal came on and gave a little speech, which was very appropriate, during the credits. They also put up a QR code which I took a picture of for this blog site. They encouraged people in the audience to buy tickets for people who couldn’t afford to go to the movie with a Pay it Forward campaign, which I thought was pretty clever and smart marketing on behalf of Angel Studios. There is a lot to like about this entire enterprise that will undoubtedly give hope to anybody who goes and sees it. For those who feel pretty hopeless about the world’s condition, I would strongly recommend The Sound of Freedom as soon as you can get to a theater and see it. I would recommend buying tickets and sending them to someone who might be on the fence. Not only for the box office need for a film like this, because this is how these kinds of movies get made. If they do well at the box office, it impacts the rest of the industry, which is precisely what is needed now with the amount of genuinely sinister aspects of culture that are on our nightly news. This movie is a ray of hope and deserves all the credit that can be given to it. I would personally like to see a lot more out of Angel Studios because this project is a real treasure. And the world could use a lot more from them. But it takes money to tell these kinds of stories, and this is a movie that was done on a high level as a kind of leap of faith. And we are lucky to have it. The world is better because of it. And maybe people will become educated enough from this movie to do something about sex trafficking and the amount of it that is destroying the lives of the innocent before they ever have a chance to live life for themselves.

The 4th of July is all About Defiance: It lets the world know that the government works for us, not the other way around

Without question, the 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays throughout the year. I always talk about my love of The Federalist and Anti-Federalist Papers; why wouldn’t I love the celebration of starting a new country built on that philosophy? Yet this year was different. In years past, there is a lot we didn’t know, perhaps suspected, about the motives of government and some of the diabolical characters that make themselves known through traces of corruption. It’s always been a problem, but now, more than ever, the hostile forces against America have been caught doing their ill will. China, specifically, and their parents in the World Economic Forum have been caught buying off politicians, attempting to change rules, such as in California, where celebrating American patriotism is under experimental regulation. We have just survived the attempts of a global takeover of the entire economy where many millions of people died from a bioweapon built by governments for the purpose of centralized control through communism in Covid-19. The compliance threat has been baked into our culture through government-run healthcare and governors who grade well under China’s spy network that ranks them according to their compliance with global communist standards. We are seeing attacks on our culture and country, unlike any other time in history, whether it’s the Revolution itself, the Civil War, the War of 1812, or the Spanish American War; this modern warning of passive-aggressive communism introduced to us through those we’ve hired to protect us, our politicians, our corporations, our media consumption is a real threat. We have just witnessed the coup by our intelligence organizations of an American president who lacked the blood of the Kennedy Assassination but was more arrogant and culturally destructive in many ways. So many were correct to wonder what we were actually celebrating on the 4th of July. But I wasn’t one of them because it’s all obvious to me.

The 4th of July is all about defiance, which ultimately, all these attempts against our culture will fail because the Chinese, the World Economic Forum terrorists, and the finance activists for progressive Luciferians of their sacred Morning Star do not understand the nature of the 4th of July, as Gavin Newsom learned by trying to regulate 4th of July celebrations in California only to see from a flyover anywhere in the state a lot of people from all political persuasions defying the mandate with personal firework shows in their back yards. Fireworks displays are not about community-organized events where everyone comes out and wastes a whole evening sitting on a blanket to watch other people blow things up. The 4th of July is about defiance. About buying illegal fireworks and lighting them off and letting the police and all authorities know that there isn’t anything they can do about it. The message is that we are a nation of laws, but only to a point. And in 2023, we are at that point. The attackers of American culture are expected to capture our nation like in a game of chess. They would capture our country and win the game if they captured our king. But in America, we have a representative government. If our king gets captured, we just find another one. We don’t work for the government. The government works for us, which is different from other places worldwide. And on the 4th of July, people buy fireworks happily to send this message to the government, which is probably one of the only things people generally agree on. That defiance is the key to American culture, and it is something we celebrate with great enthusiasm.

These global attackers, after all, had just tried to suppress Americans under stupid Covid rules, with mask mandates, with social distancing, with government-driven vaccine mandates of dangerous medicine, which has caused people great harm and has the government in trouble due to liability for its terrible decisions in breaking constitutional law for a grab for power, we would be a very different world right now if not for the American trend toward defiance. Of course, we gave the government a chance by listening to them up to a point. But once we realized how dumb everything they were doing was, people rebelled and stopped following the law with the mask mandates; they found ways to push back against the vaccine mandates and conspired to undercut the government that works for them as a natural reaction. And during that critical year of 2021 going into 2022, Americans had been tested, and they held up and destroyed the plans of Bill Gates and his World Economic Forum terrorists. And we discovered that China had been behind the release of the virus from the beginning and did so knowingly. The attack on America had been an expectation of human behavior and that if our “leaders” were captured, then Americans would fall into a line of compliance and do what they were told. But what actually happened was entirely on the opposite side of the expectation scale. Americans expect to be free, and anything that takes that option away from them, they work to undermine in their lives. There is no way to capture American culture with communist tyranny in the same way it has been done in China and elsewhere in the world, and discovering that these modern attackers have forced the globalists to hit the pause button on their diabolical plans.

I have my favorite fireworks store that my wife and I like to go to; it’s the one on the border of Indiana and Ohio in Richmond, Indiana. I enjoy the drive, we usually stop somewhere in Eaton, Ohio, for a bite to eat, and we make a nice day of our journey every year to that fireworks store where I don’t mind paying hundreds if not thousands of dollars just to blow stuff up in our driveway. I enjoy the experience of buying them, they are so happy at that fireworks store, and we usually go a few days before the 4th of July when the parking lot is full. What’s interesting about that particular Shelton’s fireworks store is that the parking lot is actually in Ohio, but the store where you actually buy the products is in Indiana. They have a line about 15 feet from the door across the whole length of the parking lot that makes it clear that after you buy the fireworks, that you are breaking the law in transporting them across state lines. Breaking the law is part of the fun and a gentle reminder to the government that they are not in charge. Ultimately the people are. They govern by our consent. But the 4th of July reminds them that they are ultimately not in charge and will never be. I never get tired of seeing all the different people there spending small fortunes just to prove that rather large point. The buying, transporting, and discharging of fireworks is not just a useless enterprise from a rich society that can afford to spend expendable income on such a destructive pastime. It’s a message of defiance that laws are followed up to the point that the people decide they are either too stupid or too corrupt to follow. And that the ultimate check on power out of control is defiance, a culture that rejects the power of their politicians even as they have now been brought under the control of foreign interests. And that makes blowing up fireworks, and buying them, one of the great treasures of any culture that I never get tired of.

They Aren’t in Charge, We Are: Violence is the only form of communication the political left has to express themselves, because their ideas are horrendous

Here’s all anybody needs to know about the present situation around the world, the desire for radical lefties to have a one-world government and the conflict of that imposition running up against a country with over 300 million guns owned by people with really short fuses.  Unlike in the past, where a benefit of doubt would have been applied to people in government management positions, in this post-Covid world, where this push for a one-world government crossed many lines, the skepticism that traditionally has been applied to government has switched into open hostility.  There is a broken trust now loose in the world that wasn’t there before, an assumption of guilt instead of forgiveness.  We have seen what the radical left wants to do, and now in the aftermath, the Saul Alinsky book doesn’t work quite the same way because that innocence that it required to exploit in people is gone forever.  Instead, in a world where information is open, and it has to be, the truth of what the radical communists of the world always intended is exploited, and now, because we are an information-based world that rejects centralized control of that information flow, the word is out, as it has been moving for many years.  The same trajectory that put President Trump in office in 2016 is the same one that is now much further along around the world in 2023, and now they have history at their backs instead of just suspicions.  And that grim reality for the communists who want the China model in every branch of government worldwide is that the political left always only had one playbook: to use force to impose compliance.  But if that doesn’t work, which it isn’t, then what?  What happens when you have a world where people have information and weapons to defend themselves with?  Well, the Liberal World Order falls apart, which is where we find ourselves presently in history.

I said it to someone yesterday who was asking me about it.  The political left is ruthless and violent.  Their entire political platform is built around fear and compliance.  They aren’t trying to win people over to their way of thinking.  They want to destroy your options, rob you of choice, and impose on you a life they control by removing all other alternatives.  And they expect to keep you in line with sheer fear.  That is why there is only one way to deal with them, with more ruthlessness.  They don’t deserve a fair shake, a turned cheek, and a sentiment toward coexisting.   They deserve what they have been giving to the rest of the world dished back at them and then some.  Don’t feel sorry for them; they will exploit it as a weakness.  Crush them politically, socially, and financially, and smash them into dust because they deserve it.  Their intentions for the world is one that cannot be forgiven now that we know.  These communist plots have been playing in the background since the mid-1850s, not that long ago, and they have spread around the globe as communications increased and made sharing information easier.  But what kept the world safe was distance from each other, so it was a slow burn over the next century.  Yet for all the same reasons, the stupidity of communism has been exploited and shared in real-time, and people have decided they don’t want that One World Government strategy and they are looking for elected representatives who will defend them from it, which is why Trump, even with all the lawfare that has been thrown in his direction, is only getting more popular, not less.

The trick was to create the illusion that a radical few could control the many with sheer intimidation, the way cows or sheep are herded with the sound of the crack of a whip.  The communists of the world thought people were that stupid.  The people that the media calls obligingly “the elite.”  The original aristocracy has been trying to stop a revolution against their existence for thousands of years.  But those revolutions failed because it was too slow to communicate with other countries.  The American Revolution happened because of that sweet spot in the world coming closer together but was yet still too far apart for mass communication.  Now information is instantaneous, and the communists thought that would work to their advantage.  If they controlled the internet to dumb people down with pornography and trivial nonsense, then we would all be easily corralled like simple-minded animals with every bio-lab-created virus they could unleash to shove the world into a Great Reset.  But instead, that compression of information and the rate of sharing it has worked against communism, which they should have seen coming.  Their plans were always going to fail, and the acceleration of that failure becomes very clear when it is realized that they are very few trying to control the many who do have the means to fight back, and the only reason they haven’t yet is because they still assume that they have free elections where they get to pick their representatives.  However, since 2020, when election fraud was blatant, the media’s complicity in election fraud was seen by all, and we were given Joe Biden almost as a slap in the face of our republic form of government to show us that we were not in charge, the assumption was the same as it is in all communist countries where the people have been conquered, such as Brazil, Venezuela, China, Iran, Europe and many other places where the words of Karl Marx have become their social foundation. 

Yet when those same communist ideas have tried to be implemented in America, the big difference has been the expectation of a Bill of Rights, of free speech to criticize the liberal effort, and guns to stop the only method the left has to communicate their message, through force and violence.  It’s one thing to host a demonstration with a bunch of pot-filled youth on a college campus or in a town that looks bigger than it is on television.  But spreading that force out across a vast country of 300 million people is a bit more complicated.  It’s like spreading butter on toast.  You can taste the butter well if you just eat the part where you applied it, but if you spread it across the whole piece of bread, it thins out rapidly.  And this fantasy of taking over the American military and going door to door to impose some leftist orgy of martial law is preposterous.  The truth is that there are a lot more of us than them, and they now know that we know that.  And we now know that their intentions for us have been hostile, and any presumption that we had previously had about playing nice together in the sandbox is gone.  With the tools of modern society, the message of freedom is much easier to sell, especially when the message of communism has failed so spectacularly, and people have realized that it’s relatively easy to stand up to.  The communist movement doesn’t have enough butter to spread across the bread, and they aren’t recruiting more to their cause.  The only grounds they have ever made were through force and manipulating things in the background.  Now that there is no longer a background, they have been exploited and are losing ground, recruits, and their message.  The old games will not work in the future, and those who have been caught deserve the hell they will have to pay because that is the trajectory of political sentiment, which will never go back to the polite society of the past.  They aren’t in charge; we are.

Why Should We Vote for Trump if He Got Suckered During His First Term: Fighting the organized crime of captured governments worldwide

I have many books that cover conspiracy theories that, before 2019, nobody would have believed. After all, who in their right mind would have believed that the government, “our government,” was involved in the creation of a bioweapon that ended up killing many millions of people worldwide and that it was unleashed in 2020 from China as a way to destroy the American presidency and red-hot economy? And that Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates knew what the plan was, and they purposely suppressed medicine to fight the bioweapon virus, such as hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, so that more people would die, and that the goals of a Great Reset, as imagined by Klaus Schwab and Yuval Harari from the World Economic Forum, a group of terrorists posing as a kind of charity organization who are seeking world domination without having a country to represent, but rather all countries united under globalism for their maniacal plans of mayhem and destruction of capitalism by communist insurgents. Yet that is precisely what happened, and what was worse was the timing, during the 2020 election season so that the emergency mode that swept over America could be used to suspend Constitutional norms and push states into changing the law for how elections were conducted so that American intelligence agencies could orchestrate a coup against a sitting president, a person hated by all the forces of globalism, both foreign and domestic, yet loved popularly by most of America who wants the sovereignty of their country back, so they trusted their election process as opposed to hitting the streets with violence to preserve their nation. Covid kept everyone hiding in their homes from the government-engineered virus, terrified that they might be the next victim of death. It was a very elaborate scheme involving many thousands of horrible people in governments worldwide. But who would have believed it before that time? 

Well, I did; I screamed it from the mountaintops. I find it amazing, for instance, after seeing the new Indiana Jones movie many times at the theater now that most people are having a problem with learning that the United States hired Nazis for the American space program. Really! That is supposed to be a well-known fact. The American space program that started NASA was full of old Nazis from Germany who worked directly for Hitler. And in addition, they were radical occultists way over the deep end, connected to Alister Crowley and the New Dawn cult that involved sacrificing all kinds of living things to ancient gods for supernatural aid. Everyone should know that because it’s been talked about in conspiracy circles for years but talking to people coming out of the Indiana Jones movie seems to be the most shocking thing to them. They didn’t know. It’s not what you talk about at Starbucks, especially before 2019, before Covid was unleashed on the world. Yet it was true, all of it was, and much more. I would not say I was ever a fan of conspiracy theories; I have always wanted a straight-up society of good people running our government and that our society was something we could all believe in and be proud of. I wanted to be proud of NASA. I wanted to be proud of the CIA. I used to have a nice hat I wore everywhere, showing my support for the CIA. But the more I read about these groups, the more you learn about these conspiracy theories and how true they really are. 

And like the talk about Nazis who founded NASA, many of those same people are now saying that we shouldn’t vote for President Trump because he was suckered so much by those around him. Obviously, Trump did get suckered by Bill Gates and Dr. Fauci. Trump trusted people, and they knowingly took advantage of his lack of knowledge regarding Covid, tricking Trump into destroying his own economy for the benefit of the aggressive Chinese. I called it a Pearl Harbor attack at the time. But I was the only one. Everyone else was grabbing a mask and hiding in their homes because the dumb government told them to, the same people who caused the problem in the first place. Then Trump thinking he was team building put a lot of Rinos on his staff to appease the various factions that were against the Make America Great Again movement. And those people sought to appease Trump’s ego to his face while working behind the scenes to undermine his presidency. So why on earth would we want to return Trump to the White House if he was so easily suckered? What would prevent him from being suckered again? Why should we give him another chance, or even worse yet, shouldn’t we appease the gods of globalism so that they stop unleashing bioweapons on us and trying to destroy our economy by picking some lightweight like Ron DeSantis or Nikki Haley, as endorsed by Fox News and the gang in New York are simply the controlled opposition for global politics with Chinese style communism in mind. There are serious problems that may require appeasement as opposed to transformative leadership in the Executive Branch. 

Long before Obama was in the White House, there were massive conspiracies engineered by lots of hostile forces to destroy America from the inside out, to destroy our laws, put international criminals in charge of our money, and to rob the value of our country and redistribute it around the world. But when Trump was elected in 2016, and the forces of globalism panicked because that was never supposed to happen, they showed their cards to the rest of the world that by the time 2020 rolled around, they were no longer concerned about concealing these vast conspiracy theories. And now that we can see them openly, we can now talk about defeating those forces. And no other presidential candidate is more motivated to fight these aggressors than Trump. He wants revenge for what they did to him personally. And many of us want a peaceful revolution against these hostile forces for the threat we have always known them to be. But because of Trump, more people now know them. Trump knows who the players are because they personally burned him, he understands how the corruption machine works, and if he had just four years to deal with it, he could do great things that have needed to happen for decades. But only now are people ready to see what those things are and comprehend just how hostile those forces against America, both foreign and domestic, were all along. “Yes, Nazis built our moon rockets,” I said to a very nice man after seeing the latest Indiana Jones movie. “Without Hitler’s Nazis, an American space program would never have existed. What they showed in that movie was actually true.” He was stunned. I could have continued, “and Covid was created to destroy America and capitalism in general from the inside out.” Maybe someday someone will make a movie about these things, and I’ll have a similar conversation with people like that 50 years from now. But until then, Trump is the best way to change the course of history back to an American nation that is the light for the world. And only he could have a chance to perform the task because he learned the players from actual, real-world experience that forced these conspiracies to the surface for all to see.

‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ is Fantastic: The way they used to make movies, family-friendly, happy endings, and a real love for the audiance

The really good news is that Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a wonderful movie. I have said it for years, and it’s certainly true here, one of the extraordinary measures of a society’s health is its box office because it tells the world what people are buying at the movie theater as an entertainment option. It accurately describes what kinds of things people really like in the world and provides a measure beyond political beliefs to the truth of public sentiment. It’s much more difficult to understand when you get into television ratings and streaming services. And I think what happened with Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is something that we talked about last year with the release of Top Gun: Maverick, another movie that, like Indiana Jones, was delayed for many years in production before being released to the public. I’m sure that Steven Spielberg will deny it, along with the diversity crew at Disney, but clearly, what happened with Indiana Jones and the newly directed James Mangold Dial of Destiny is that they learned some important lessons with Top Gun, one of the first big hits coming out of Covid. And as a result, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a fantastic film that seeks to be more like Raiders of the Lost Ark than the more slapstick Last Crusade. If you understand Indiana Jones like I do, and many people who have been with this character for over four decades now, and have watched all the television shows, read all the books, read the comics, played the video games, this Indiana Jones movie does a great job of showing a very complete character in a way that Hollywood has never had to deal with. And the movie pulls it off spectacularly and very respectfully. As only Harrison Ford could play, this is a very complex character, more so than most reviewers could wrap their minds around, and the result is something extraordinary with a very happy, family-friendly ending. I don’t think there was a single curse word in the entire film, and it didn’t have anything woke in it. It was an offering from Disney that was begging for forgiveness from the movie-going public.

What was clear to me was that this new director, James Mangold, loves Indiana Jones as many of us do, and he understands the character and his significance to actual history. I’ve also said many times that Indiana Jones has done more for science than almost any other resource in the history of the world. The publishing industry has really flourished because of Indiana Jones, not by direct correlation, but the hunger for the kind of content that is often discussed in Indiana Jones films and in Dial of Destiny; a lot is going on, things that work at many different levels that were built around a movie with a true love for the world of Indiana Jones and the way that fiction carries over into fact. I would go so far as to call Dial of Destiny as brilliant and ambitious while being very safe in the continuation of the character. As many have discussed, Indiana Jones is an old man in this movie. Harrison Ford is 80 years old, so we aren’t talking about a swashbuckling Errol Flynn type mixed with Humphrey Bogart as Raiders of the Lost Ark was often characterized back when it was first released. This is something unique and entirely of its own making that now has its own history that everything is measured from. And some of the real Indiana Jones types that are out there in the world doing great work, clearly inspired by these movies over the years, like Graham Hancock, the Joe Rogan Show, and even the religious writer Jonathan Cahn have shown that most of the thrill of Indiana Jones isn’t a youthful man fighting bad guys and escaping under speeding trucks. Over the years, the greatest thrills in Indiana Jones movies are more intellectual than physical, and that’s why Dial of Destiny works so well with an old Indiana Jones doing what only he could.

Instead, I would have Disney not made this Indiana Jones movie before I saw it. I raised my children on these movies; now, my grandchildren are tremendous fans. I enjoyed Kingdom of the Crystal Skull as an ambitious film that many didn’t like because it stepped out of the formula established in the first three films that were all released during Reagan-era politics in the 1980s. As much as people didn’t like the movie, and that Steven Spielberg didn’t seem to want to make it, there were a lot of positive things that came from that fourth film, such as the History Channel’s show Ancient Aliens, which culminated in the lives of great writers like Zecharia Sitchin and Erich von Daniken. These Indiana Jones movies open the broader market for these kinds of unique adventures into history, such as The Gold of the Gods so wonderfully portrays. Indiana Jones may have started as an adventurous playboy grave robber in Raiders of the Lost Ark. But he evolved quickly into the pent-up frustrations of George Lucas himself, a very smart person who wanted to live the lifetimes of dozens of the most brilliant people in all of human history, that over the years was attempted to flush out in all forms of media available to tell these stories. This movie, Dial of Destiny, does all that while still managing to keep Indiana Jones the person we have always known. He shoots guns in this movie, which I thought Disney would avoid altogether. There are fistfights that are not unbelievable for an 80-year-old man. And the development of Helena Shaw was respectful, fun, and dashing. I would easily see a movie that featured her as a main character. Played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, she was a fun character, and I could see a sequel to Dial of Destiny where she is the feature, and Indiana Jones makes a guest appearance to help the movie along. This might be the last Indiana Jones movie, but I don’t think it will be the last Indiana Jones appearance by Harrison Ford, based on how this movie ended. 

It will be interesting to see how much business this movie does for Disney. Disney has severe brand damage now with their commitment to woke politics. But this movie is a clear peace offering to the ticket-buying public to help repair that brand. To invite people to come back to the theme parks. This is Bob Iger attempting to get Disney back in the public’s good graces. At least this film deserves to be in the billion-dollar club. But the Disney brand has made some people very, very angry. Yet this movie is as good as movies can be made and does not destroy a character the world has fallen in love with. And it leaves the door open to a happy ending for him, given that Indiana Jones is old. And that John Williams, who does a fantastic job with the musical score, as usual, is now in his 90s. This happy movie gives fans what they are looking for, and I couldn’t recommend it more. This is the kind of film that movie theaters were made for, that we used to get all the time in the 80s and 90s, but are now very rare. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is something special, and it was wonderful to see that movies like this can still be made.

A UFO Over Middletown, Ohio: Right where I said one should appear

It’s always news when a UFO appears in the sky in your community, especially a well-defined one as occurred on June 21st, 2023, in precisely the location that I had dared one to appear just a few days earlier. One of my locations for recording VLOGs for my website is the LeSourdsville Lake Park near the campus of Butler Tech. I had been covering the increase in the news of UFO sightings, precisely the one in Las Vegas recently where reportedly a UFO crashed in the backyard of some witnesses, and 10-foot-tall aliens were running around trying to conceal the crash by driving around construction equipment. All this was reported to the police, captured on video, and had multiple witnesses. As I report these things, I say that UFO encounters are much more common among many more people who typically don’t get recognition for them, so it was odd that there are many more reporting than usual and that they are occurring with more frequency with multiple witnesses. My purpose for talking about it wasn’t the phenomenon itself but that the government was admitting to it. And my offering was that the government was in trouble with all these other scandals, horrible inflation, globalism gone bad, a Covid story that wouldn’t go away, election fraud, and abuse of the Department of Justice; there is a lot that the American government would like to get out of people’s minds, and usually when you see a rash of UFO stories, that is the card that governments hide under their sleeve for just such emergencies. 

So to take the edge off the story, I pointed to a spot on the ground and dared a UFO to appear, and a few days later, just a few hundred feet away, a really good UFO appeared in the sky to multiple witnesses who were able to record it on their cell phones. The UFO hovered in the sky near the Speedway, which is nearby with very defined lights turning in a counterclockwise direction before jutting off to the northeast at impossible speeds for conventional physics. Early offerings on the matter were that it could have been a drone or a series of drones. But whatever it was, it was certainly something, and many people saw it. Of course, my first reaction was that someone had seen my video and had the idea to create the situation to answer my challenge. Because there were too many coincidences to consider, out of all the latitude and longitude coordinates in the world, this UFO appearance was just too perfect considering my challenge. And out of all the times in the year, this one appeared just a few days after I had asked it to. That left the question of who and why because the UFO that appeared in the sky was undoubtedly a what and a where. I have recorded UFOs in this general area before, but this one was very well-defined and had all the cinematic elements that are typically associated with UFO technology, spinning, colorful lights, impossibly high speeds, and the ability to hover in place. It was a classic UFO sighting that was entirely too perfect to be real, yet there it was. 

I wondered about it being a drone, about it being an experimental craft from nearby Wright Patterson Airforce Base. One of the reasons that there may be many UFO sightings in the Southern Ohio area is the many Indian mounds. This precise area has many markers in the shape of mounds, as I have talked about them being references to points in time that were created to help a navigator understand due to star alignments with them “when” in time a space traveler might want to know. Specifically, in this case, the nearby Fort Hill alignments that are over 5000 years old align to the constellation Aries and involve the Pleiades star system at a time when people shouldn’t have had such ideas about astrology. And just a few miles to the north of that UFO sighting is the Middletown Mound which is related to the massive Miamisburg mound just upriver a few miles. So, these UFOs aren’t as uncommon as people might think, nor are their reasons for appearing in the Southern Ohio skies. No matter how advanced onboard equipment might be, even for a society that is millions of years further along technologically than we are present, there is nothing like a good signpost in the ground to tell you when you are somewhere because space travel can get funky, as time does not move the same way for everyone, everywhere. It helps to know “when” you are, not just “where.” Most of the UFOs I have seen are very high up. One of my daughters is very tuned in to these kinds of things and always finds them. Most recently, there was one she recorded and sent to me right over my house, but very high up. I remind people that there is a lot of advanced technology that people have, governments, crime syndicates, pedophile rings within the World Economic Forum, crazy lunatics obsessed with bizarre sex practices where they drink adrenochrome, which could simulate a UFO occurrence with holographic projections, which is what I think this UFO reported on August 21st actually was. We are dealing with very hostile people who have gained the advantage in recent years of a technology-based world that is easy to manipulate through images. And those who control what you see are prone to abuse that power.

Understanding all that, my statement on UFOs and all other potential hostilities, no matter where they come from, is that the American Constitution is a philosophy that is the law of the land and that we do not suspend it just because aliens from other planets happen to show up. It’s the same kind of debate that we had when the government purposely mismanaged Covid by denying victims of proper medicine such as hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin as treatments, allowing people to purposely be killed by the virus released by the lab in Wuhan through government cooperation globally. In America, they tried to suspend our Constitutional rights over Covid and implied the same regarding UFO encounters. If we come face to face with an alien species, then we are expected to cleave to the government to save us, and under such conditions, our Constitution would be suspended. My argument is that “no,” we never suspend our Constitution and turn our lives over to the government, which is what I had been saying was the root cause of these increases in UFO appearances. The fact that they were happening, and more frequently, was the government’s way to corral people behind their cause, to get them to seek the safety of the government’s skirt like a frightened child. I would further offer that our American Constitution would be valuable to teach aliens from space.

Just because they are technologically further along than us doesn’t mean they are smarter. They could learn a thing or two from the American Constitution. But we don’t suspend it just because of some emergency or visits from an alien species. And ultimately, that’s why I think the UFO sightings are happening. To remind people that government is there to protect them from unknown forces and that those forces are just hovering around anywhere, anytime. What defense do we have if not for the government? Well, my statement is that the government does lie and that they are far more dangerous than the aliens. If the aliens want to come, go ahead and land, and let’s have a chat. But suspending the Constitution, or our investigative First Amendment that looks at all the bad dealings of this corrupt government isn’t going to happen. Based on what we know now, the government isn’t something we should be running to for protection. They are what we should be running from, aliens and all.
