A Review of ‘Government Gangsters’ by Kash Patel: The proof everyone has been looking for

I see it all as turning a corner. The story laid out in Kash Patel’s new book Government Gangsters is irreversibly potent. You can’t unsee it once you have seen it. I have watched America wake up for years to the kind of government that it has, and it’s clear where it’s all going. It’s most evident with the Speaker of the House situation in Congress. The peer pressure pushes for order and compromise, where the voters have had enough. They just want to save the idea of their country, and now they know how bad some of these Government Gangster types are. Just a few years ago, people like me would talk about how bad the government is, and people would squawk about wanting to talk about something else. Now, when it’s evident that the uniparty is willing to pull off their Republican masks to keep Jim Jordan, whom President Trump endorsed, from becoming Speaker and to get Congress going again, we can see who the activists are in our government who don’t want the will of the American people represented in congress but are tethered to lobbyists and international tyrants willingly. They’ve been hiding behind the Republican brand while doing whatever it took to profit themselves no matter how much they sold out our country, and now people can see. They can see how some low-life judge in New York has tried to show power over a former president, Trump, who just so happens to be leading over all rivals, including the current president, in polling one year away from the election, by being ahead in 6 of 7 battleground states and is tied in Michigan. The scam was always in the order of things, and disorder is emerging to expose who these Government Gangsters have always been. And it has been not fun to see.

Kash Patel is no slack-jawed loser; he served high up in President Trump’s administration in several capacities, including Senior Director of Counter Terrorism and Chief of Staff to the Department of Defense. So he was there for most everything directly over many years of the Trump presidency, which most of the Swamp would love to pretend never happened, just as they are currently in denial of the direction of Congress. People don’t want more sell-outs in Congress. They want people like Jim Jordan and a minority of participants in the House on both sides; Republicans and Democrats are hoping that if they drag their feet longer, everything will snap back into the scam that got us all into trouble in the first place. But that’s not happening; people are now awake, although slow to respond. Ultimately, it’s economy that people judge their government by, and this economy isn’t good. There has been a lot of hope that if Robert Kennedy jumped into the race to make it a three-way entanglement, it would help the Democrats. But early polling shows that Trump, one way or the other, no matter what is going on with court cases during the upcoming primary season, will have 39% of the vote. And he will get a share of independents who are sick of the price of milk and eggs being too expensive under Joe Biden. And Trump will win easily. That reality has not sunk in yet, but it will. Rather quickly. Now that these Government Gangsters have shown who they were, there is no way to put all that back in a bottle and move on. Which I think is a great thing, as ugly as it has been.

Early after the election, after I started my Rumble channel, which now has over a thousand videos that get respectable viewership, considering they are primarily about politics, I explained to everyone something I had known for a long time. The mob got tired of running from the law and instead moved into government, so we now call them “Government Gangsters.” It has not been a government for the people by the people but has essentially become a fourth branch of unaccountable government called the Deep State that has captured law enforcement and the military to perform the kind of mob hits that Al Capone was famous for in Chicago. People at the time thought I was overly dramatic, but in 2023, after three years of hindsight, people saw that what I said was true. That it is all too true. We don’t have a government serving the people in America; that was all an illusion, performed through rigged elections, a Marxist-oriented media, and a K-Street lobby that gave easy money to anyone who defected from Constitutional concepts. And once Trump was elected, impossibly because the system was so rigged against something like that, they hit the panic button and started to show who they were all these years. Government Gangsters brings the evidence of just how bad it is, and it is. The FBI has become essentially a hit squad for the Deep State, which has its roots in international finance and a legal system deeply committed to concepts of globalism and the abolition of the American Constitution. Most of the time, all books like this are missing other points of view, but in this case, there is only one view. That our government is out of control and is hostile to the people it’s supposed to serve, and they have now all been caught, and it’s up to voters to sort it all out, which will happen now that it’s all so obvious.

I was in a public place where people watched the Ohio State football game over the weekend with Penn State.  And games like that used to occupy all of America’s leisure energy, but not now.  People remember the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State.  People know how much less money they have to spend on fun stuff during football games like that.  People aren’t nearly as distracted as they used to be, which allowed these Government Gangsters to thrive, hidden in the background.  At a game like that, usually, people wouldn’t talk to me with my guns and cowboy hat looming around in the background.  They would try to ignore me the best they could.  But not anymore.  Instead, they ask me, “When is Trump coming back?  Is he going to beat all these federal charges?  Will Trump be able to get our economy moving again?”  People know I’ve been involved in this stuff for over 30 years.  My answer to them is, and has been, that there will be a lot of turbulence.  Fasten your seat belt; it will be a bumpy landing.  But yes, Trump will be back, beat all the charges, and be able to get the economy moving again the most powerful in the world.  It’s simple: just get rid of the government gangsters, push out the organized crime element of our current government, and things will suddenly get a lot better.  But first, you must admit that there is a problem, which is where many people are right now.  People are hoping and praying for a return of Trump and the destruction of the Government Gangsters, which are now clearly evident for all to see.  But the gangsters are hoping to wait out the storm and are planning on everyone going back to sleep so they can resume their crimes against humanity.  However, America is waking up for good this time, and the results will be inevitable.

The Spoiled Brat Government Gangsters: RINOs and Democrats love corruption and are fighting to keep it

I don’t have a problem with the Speaker drama in Congress.  I could care less about the structured order of things because whenever the game is known and predictable, there will always be scandalous characters willing to exploit it for their personal gain.  And that is certainly the case when it comes to Washington D.C. politics.  With all the attempts to get Jim Jordan over the finish line to be the new Speaker of the House, the truth is that the process has exposed the real problems we have in government, that there are more than 20 Republicans in Congress who are not what people voted for.  They are Democrats more than they are Republicans, and rather than give up the excellent gig they have, where money is attached to the power they have acquired, they are perfectly willing to side with the Democrats to preserve a system many of us want to destroy.  If the government isn’t representing the people who vote but is instead representing lobbyists and other special interests, then who cares if we have a Speaker of the House?  Everything they do is simply ceremonial and worthless anyway.  So, I see a great benefit in a locked-up government that isn’t doing anything.  I’m certainly not in a rush to have Congress get together to show unity for Israel.  I can get a dog to do something like that.  The only good Congress can do is make sure that the fiscal strings of the nation are healthy and they haven’t been doing that for a long time, so to me, they are next to worthless, with worthless being an actual positive value relative to their true condition.  The panic from the media and others to get back to the established optics of the government scam is to get the machine going for all those who are sucking off the system to enrich themselves with worthless antics and the real value is watching them squirm.

I’ll review Kash Patel’s new book Government Gangsters soon, which is quite good.  But that title is the key to understanding what has been going on with our government, which we are working out now.  When the election was stolen in 2020, I started explaining to people the truth of the matter, because people were scared and unsure that what they saw was real.  I explained that one of the reasons you don’t hear much about the mob anymore is that the mob moved into government jobs and away from the private sector.  The kind of people who were in the mob found it much better to be in charge of the law instead of running from it, so yes, the government is filled with a gangster mentality, and they dare anybody to come after them.  Because these days, they are the law.  It’s not like the FBI and other law enforcement officials work for the people, as they used to.  And would crack down on illegal mob mentality.  Now, they are the Government Gangsters.  And the Kash Patel book lays it all out in ways that most readers don’t even come close to touching.  Of course, I would know because I’ve done work for mobster personalities in my youth and I see them for what they are.  They aren’t typically the scary Al Capone types who beat in the head of someone who betrayed them with a baseball bat at a dinner table as they show in mob movies like The Untouchables.  Rather, they are much more passive-aggressive than that.  They are every bit as brutal, but when they want to bash in someone’s head, they hide behind lawyers and process controls rather than actually doing the work of swinging a bat themselves and getting all dirty.  In many ways, these Government Gangsters are like spoiled brat teenage kids protecting their right to be douchebags, and they feel they are entitled to lash out when things don’t go their way.

You can tell kids growing up in a single-parent home where a mom is trying to appease their teenage sons and no stable man is around.  The same loser government gangsters who have been telling us for years that women can get divorced and that they could turn their kids over to the government to raise have been suckered.  And the product that has come out of those arrangements is a lot of loser kids who grow up to be loser adults.  Most of the fools you meet on K-Street who work for some money padding operation could be said to come from such family environments where they have mothers who overly cuddled them, and they are simply unable to deal with the reality of adult life.  So they seek government jobs to hide in the role of a Government Gangster, who essentially becomes a grown-up spoiled brat teenager who is untested in life and needs a good ass kicking.  It’s bad enough when you get one or two of these types of people involved in anything.  But when you build your entire government off those types of personalities, there is no hope of anything good happening.  And that’s what has become obvious in the post-Trump years.  Before Trump was president, we suspected these things about our government.  But in the wake of it, we have had everything confirmed. 

And that’s what we are getting from the news culture, the Beltway thieves, and the established Republican and Democrat circles.  They are government gangsters of essentially spoiled brat teenage kids raised by weak mothers void of fatherly power and wisdom, and it has left them vacant of morality and ethics.  And to cover up their flawed personalities, they have thrown money at the problem which is represented in our national debt.  And all of Washington D.C. has been built around this government gangster mentality.  So it doesn’t matter who the Speaker of the House is.  It’s a collection of thieving losers intent to rob and steal from the American people, and they want their scam back.  This journey to find a Speaker of the House has simply revealed the true nature of who these government gangsters are and what they have been doing all along.  I see the same struggles in local politics as well.  Actual voters expect a government that represents them when it has been formed to enrich with easy money spoiled brat adults lacking a moral compass for many immature reasons.  And they don’t want anybody to disrupt their easy money gig of acquiring office and then selling it to those willing to pay the most.  Then, if anybody challenges them, they destroy them in court with laws they control to preserve their scam.  This mess wasn’t created overnight and won’t be fixed quickly.  But at least we are discussing it in ways we haven’t before.  And the illusion of a Speaker of the House hasn’t been able to hide all this detrimental behavior behind a veil of polite society.  These were always losers, spoiled brat grown-ups using the government to conceal their worthless natures.  But now people see the truth, which is why a paralyzed government is the best.  America will function just fine without many spoiled teenage kids running the show for their self-enrichment, which is true of most world governments in general, which is now becoming more evident to people who previously thought otherwise.

The Best Way to Fight Terrorism is to Buy a Gun: Israel should have had private gun ownership

I think my wife’s reaction to the attack on Israel is similar to most people.  She is such a sweet, loving person, and not some radical ideologue, that her opinion represents the majority.   And as we watched the footage of all the poor young women being beaten and raped by the thugs of Palestine, she turned to me and said, “I want to buy more guns.”  I asked her how many guns she wanted because we weren’t lacking in that department.  For my concealed carry, I always have my .50 caliber Desert Eagle.  When people ask me about my leather vests, I always wear them because it’s the only thing I can wear that conceals that gun in public.  Additionally, I carry with me at all times a Smith & Wesson .500 Magnum with an extra long barrel to keep the recoil down when firing.  Some people think that is too much heat in a civilized country like America, but I have much experience that says otherwise.  The default mode for all humans is just above that of a wild animal.  The only thing that brings about civility is good laws through a decent religion.  Governments have never been able to install a philosophy that protects people from a centralized state.  So, the key to a civilized society that ensures destruction from a villainous perpetrator is gun rights.  And instinctively, my wife understood that as she watched the carnage from the news coverage and heartbreaking reports.  So I told her we could go up to the gun store at the end of our street and buy as many guns as she wanted.  I’m always good for a few more guns.  They are the best votes you can make in a society that you want to be civil and law-driven. 

Israel’s most significant problem that facilitated all this carnage is that they don’t have gun rights for individuals, which opened them up to this attack.  They have a good military and generally a decent government, which is a deterrent in most cases.  But their lack of personal gun ownership allowed the house-to-house raids in Israel and the Hamas checkpoints, which stopped and slaughtered entire families.  I would further add that if not for individual gun rights, there would have already been terrorist raids like we saw in Israel in the United States.  I do not doubt that there will be attempts by some radical terrorist cells to bring similar horrors to our communities.  That is the intention of the open border policy people.  Hamas is just another terrorist weapon that agents of evil in the world can tap into at will to inspire fear and death for political advantage, and this attack in Israel was far from a spontaneous event.  It was the result of a culture that built into it the vulnerabilities of a liberal world order on purpose so that mass control of the population through fear would be easy to achieve.  I get the ability to travel extensively, and I can report that countries that do not have personal firearm protections and functional religions are ingredients for outright destruction.  Without personal protections and military-grade defense of private property, society cascades into chaos quickly.  The people of that society are either too compliant to be inventive and economically potent or too dangerous to coexist with other people.  Only through the maintenance of private property and a standard of value everyone can share does success in a social regard begin to function correctly. 

I could tell many personal stories I have had from my past where carrying such large caliber weapons makes perfect sense, even if it’s not the shared experience of the everyday business person or soccer mom hauling their kids around to sporting events.  On more than one occasion, I have learned how dangerous people can be just one carload away at a traffic light, so I keep myself prepared for the worst they can offer.  Government rules do not deter villainy; instead, they attract malicious characters like flies on a hot summer in July.  The more guns a culture has, the safer that society is.  And that would be my recommendation based on a lot of personal experience as a lesson from this attack on Israel.  Any government that says it wants to control the private ownership of guns is setting up that culture for personal violence, especially in the United States, where the open border policy in the south has purposefully allowed so many characters with a bad reputation into our country.  The same people telling us they want to take our guns are also creating a policy where Hamas-level terrorists are moving into our cities and communities with just as much hostile intention as they attacked Israel during Yom Kippur.  Only fools would follow such ridiculous instructions.  If they could, they would have attacked already and are always looking for a vulnerability to exploit.  Should society always be that close to complete mayhem?  Well, that’s up to the people’s values, and religion is a means to regulate society into some mutually agreed sentiment of value.  But in an open society with free expression, where governments tend to be corrupt on a good day, people must be able to protect themselves.  Because the government won’t, can’t, and is inspired to evil on its own.

So, if you are considering getting a gun, I would say to do so.  I would also say to carry one with you all the time.  Everywhere.  Do not trust the government to protect you.  It’s great if they do.  But don’t be a sucker and expect it by default.  I told my wife she can buy as many guns as she wants.  I recommend purchasing a new weapon every month and supporting our gun manufacturers.  With more than 300 million guns in America, I want to see more than a billion in private ownership.  And the bigger, the better.  Criminals break the rules, and there is something to steal wherever there is value.  Something to bring harm to.  Israel is a country of value in a pit of vipers who live a substandard, collective existence.  To adequately protect their people, they should have had private gun ownership for those days when Hamas would attack them and perform such acts of terror as we have just witnessed.  It can happen in America, too, and while you can’t remove such intentions from the mind of the malicious, you can stop them once they start shooting and minimize the carnage.  To have a free society that protects private property from even the government gangsters, which, even under the best circumstances, they are, you must always carry firearms with you.  You must have your house filled with them.  And if you want to vote for true prosperity, you can buy lots and lots of guns to let the world know you are more than prepared for anything that might come your way from dangerous personalities.  Buying guns is an act of civility and law and order.  Without the maintenance of every individual in a culture toward that objective, there is no hope to wrestle away from the villains of a stable society of mutual respect.  Only with superior firepower can a society hope to thrive from those despotes of civilization that always want to crawl back into the cave and retreat and stop human progress to fear every approaching thunderstorm that streaks across the sky, unleashed by the gods because somebody forgot to sacrifice a goat.

The Covid Attack to Impose Marxism: Pull and Push systems imposed through health policy instead of politics

I’ve argued against it for over 30 years, this whole dumb idea of push/pull systems.  People in the world need to be pushed.  When you go to Europe and ask the waiter to hurry up, and they say, “Why, don’t be in such a hurry, take your time.  Make love not war, enjoy the smell of the roses, and drink some fine wine,” you are listening to the effects of a socialist from a country infused with Marxism.  Not someone trying to be their most productive self, and that is the heart of the argument between push systems of manufacturing and pull.  Pushing is where product flow goes downstream and puts pressure on the weakest links to pick up the pace.  Pull is where the lowest links send the demand signal upstream, and everything gets built around the identity of the constraints.  Push systems force your most honest understanding of what a true constraint is.  Pull systems yield to the weakest interpretation and build around that false assumption.  Pull systems work pretty well in places like Japan because they have a society that genuinely tries to do an excellent job at all levels.  But in Western cultures, for many reasons, people need to be motivated to do good things, and they certainly need to be pushed.  Because their default personality is to be lazy and do as little as possible, any culture that does not enjoy hard work is prone to this condition, so trusting them to define their constraints is a fool’s game.  It’s also why we know that Covid was a fake plot created by radical elements of the world’s economic manipulations to convert the world to Marxism hidden behind a health crisis manufactured in a Wuhan lab in China during a critical election year.  How do we know, well, by economic measures. 

I’ve been talking about a recent trip I took my family on to Disney World, which was a long time in the planning phase.  In 2019, my wife and I took a scouting trip there to plan for the larger group: our kids, grandkids, husbands, dogs, lodging, and various factors.   Of course, as soon as we returned, COVID-19 hit, and it has been nearly four years to get everything back on schedule.  Due to Covid rules at Disney, such as social distancing and mask mandates, they were very slow to return to normal, and we weren’t going to go until that happened.  Some of my kids are so anti-mask and anti-vaccine that anything close to those regulations at Disney World was a hard pass, no.  So we had to wait a while for Disney to get its act together, and this year of 2023 was the first year of that normalcy.  Disney is an excellent example because it’s a uniquely American economic experience, so it’s a good barometer for general economic behavior, and measuring from 2019 to 2023 was an excellent way to compare before-COVID and after-COVID realities.  And what I was able to see easily was obvious in supply chains across the world.  Hidden in the health policies of COVID was outright Marxism that is still permeating the employee marketplace.  What we ended up with in 2023 was a lot of the Democrat policies that were only talked about in 2019, such as wage rates.  After COVID-19, employers had to throw money at employees to get them to come to work because COVID-19 had destroyed the value system entirely for all employees.  Why go to work when the government would pay you to stay home?  And why work harder if the wage rates were artificially propped up for everyone?  Even now, too many employees still want to work from home because they fear they have Covid, leaving employers stuck trying to fill production gaps with new weak links in the supply chain, not knowing if people are going to show up for work, and what they could do about it.

It was clear Disney was suffering from this very problem: their lines were less productive, their employees were much less engaged, and many things were broken that wouldn’t have been damaged or long in 2019.  I went to several restaurants selling souvenir glasses, expecting to buy them, only to be told they were out of stock and they had no idea when they would be.  In 2019, that wouldn’t have been the answer.  Even for Disney they were having difficulty getting parts of their supply chain to perform reliably.  And, of course, they were dealing with the same staffing shortages the rest of the world was: people who didn’t show up for work, believing that COVID recommendations would still get them out of work as good as a doctor’s note.  And there was nothing they could say about it.  The new message from Disney, which wasn’t the case in 2019, was that it would be expensive to vacation there.  And we will do our best.  Instead of expecting the best, they’d at least try.  It was that old Marxism acceptance of yielding to constraints instead of pushing them through competition to solve those problems.  And Covid was the means of forcing mass society to accept those constraints.  Previously, the supply chain would be pushed to ensure the market’s satisfaction.  Now, the market would have to wait and be happy with it.

People have been slow to admit to themselves that COVID was a weapon of global Marxism to do what they couldn’t do politically through health policy.  Yet the proof is everywhere, and behind some blatant lies of Bidenomics trying to hide horrendous economic news is the imposed Marxism that has slid under the door to just about every part of the global economy.  I see it everywhere. I just traveled through the Toronto International Airport, where they were trying to rid themselves of any memory of Covid policy, yet their employees were still functioning from the call-off effects, the unstable management of their workforce, and knowing who was going to be at work, how long they’d be there, and whether or not they could even hire enough people to staff their positions.  The holes were evident, and everyone was supposed to look the other way and pretend everything was fine, just like at Disney, and not even ask the question.  The world had imposed on it during COVID this Marxist pull system where the constraints were artificially created to serve that radical economic theory.  It wasn’t voted for; it was built into the COVID policy from the beginning and was undoubtedly one of its goals, which nobody saw coming.  But because of that aspect alone, there should be massive prosecutions of everyone who played their part in this global insurrection.  The evidence has been left behind and is evident to those with the eyes to see it.  And it was never about health.  Marxism was always the motivation for COVID-19, and it still lingers economically until people wise up to it and scrap the entire footprint it has left behind.  That’s a hard admission for many, but the reality is that for a proper economy to work genuinely, Marxism must be pushed out of it.  And until that happens, we will be left with a less-than-optimal economy and a general state of unhappiness always associated with Marxism.

Turning off Lynda O’Conner’s Mic: When the excuses are removed, you see what people really are

Well, of course, the criticism of Lakota School Board President Lynda O’Conner is perfectly warranted, and a couple of political PACs have formed to speak out against her.  A campaign to “turn off her mic” is perfectly justified, which is a reaction to her behavior over the last year, where she has sought to completely control public speech and criticism of her performance as a management body at Lakota.  Too often, people involved in politics forget that after all the election stuff, political people are supposed actually to do a good job.  If it’s a first-time office holder, there is usually some forgiveness for not knowing what they are doing.  But for someone who has been around for 16 years or more, such as Lynda O’Conner has, good performance is expected.  This is a political problem; getting elected is a kind of popularity contest with the ultimate social euphoria, like being elected homecoming king or queen.  The public affirmation is addicting, and it’s nice to be picked by the public to do something.  But then there is the actual problem of doing the job.  This is what is going on with Congress these days, where people are tired of lip service from the Speaker of the House role.  People are tired of broken promises and lackluster performance in their representative government. Over the years, the trend has been pointing toward increased scrutiny as more people are paying more attention to political topics than they used to, especially in public education.  There used to be an assumption that public schools were okay, that kids were getting good, respectable instructions.  Not the actual reality that they are learning centers for Hamas and abortion activism.  Now that people have had to reluctantly admit, in the post-Covid years, public schools have not been tolerant of conservative values when school board members get caught in that crossfire by default, they don’t want to get seen carrying water for liberal causes, which is precisely what Lynda O’Conner was found doing.

One of those political PACs that has come forth against her during this election of 2023, where Lynda is on the party ticket for re-election after doing the job for a very long time, has produced a video showing the primary problem. In the footage, Lynda had the mic turned off of a local advocate giving public statements. Lynda was functioning from bad legal advice from the same kind of people who caused the problem, to begin with, school administrative officers who had behaved detrimentally in public and caused great harm to the school’s reputation. To cover up that damage, Lynda became the most prominent advocate for getting rid of free speech, which is critical to the maintenance of public schools, where the taxpayers fund the entire process. A community representative, which all school board members are, does not get to limit the public’s opinions and openly keeps those beliefs quiet to preserve an idea of Lakota schools, which it did not earn. There exhibited many problems regarding abuse of power that Lynda O’Conner showed during 2022 and 2023 when much of this public drama unfolded, but the biggest problem is found in that video: how she managed public crises that Lakota administrative employees caused. That was enough to cause a lot of people who formally supported her to withdraw that support. And if Lynda wanted to do what was right for the local Republican Party, she never would have put them in this awkward position by running in the next election after all the controversy.

Of course, the problems extend well beyond the cosmetic trouble of abusing power by attempting to cut off public criticism of school board management. And this is more where I am on this topic. Lynda was given a three-vote majority and completely screwed it up with uncovered activism. Before that last election, which saw the successful campaigns of Darbi Boddy and Isaac Adi elected as endorsed Republican representatives, Lynda was given by “us” members of the community who wanted to help her what she said she wanted, which was a majority vote on the board so she wasn’t always the lone victimized voice. For context, many people would tell me about my relationship with Lynda, that she was a RINO and was a liberal. Of course, I would reply, “I will stand by Lynda until she proves otherwise.” Lynda would complain that she was the only one willing to vote for conservative ideas on the Lakota school board in a conservative district. So, some of us got together and gave her the requested help. But rather than rejoice over the matter, Lynda had been exposed as the liberal everyone warned me she was. Because now that she had the votes, she would be uncovered. She was pleased to double-talk with Julie Shaffer and Kelly Casper while having public spats with Brad Lovell to sell her conservative brand to the community. But it was all show business. When Lynda was handed the President role with a majority vote, she had no further excuses for performance, so she immediately picked a fight with Darbi Boddy over nonsense political issues and moved to separate Isaac Adi from Darbi, which has resulted in a lot of chaos meant to disguise her liberal inclinations.

Darbi Boddy became the scapegoat for Lynda’s sins as a liberal posing as a conservative to win public support between election cycles. As long as Lynda was a victim, she could always say, “Look, I’m being outvoted. I can do nothing to stop the out-of-control spending, the genderless bathrooms, and social degradation from the teacher’s union.” But once those excuses were taken away, suddenly the new reason was, “Darbi isn’t professional and is bringing harm to our efforts through negative news stories,” which, of course, Lynda and Julie leaked to their contacts to drive the narrative, all while turning off the microphone to the public so they could attempt to contain public opinion. Truthfully, the Republican Party endorsed her out of friendships, the kind of sympathy formed by the challenges of the popularity contest of elected office. And compassion that politics is changing and the public expects a decent performance from their representatives. So Lynda put them all in the wrong place, and being so politically astute, she should have known better. I don’t see any political difference between Julie Shaffer and Doug Horten, who is also running. The only school board candidate I can support in this election is Russ Loges, who seems sincere and willing to work hard. But we know what we are getting with Lynda. And I didn’t suddenly become a Julie Shaffer fan. Everyone is asking me why I haven’t put up the video on so many phones of bad behavior showing Julie in compromising positions. You can’t pay me enough to look at that trainwreck in such compromised states. I’d instead rather not think about it personally, everyone by now knows the stories. These people are disasters, and we could do a lot better as a community, and we did have options. And instead of those options working for the Republican Party healthily and productively, they are now on the outside working to expose bad behavior, which is expected from politics once the elections are over. We hope people actually to be conservative and stand for constitutional values. And Lynda hasn’t done any of those things.

Senator George Lang and SB 132: Ohio is open for business, and the marketplace will reflect value

I have been getting a lot of questions about Senator George Lang’s support of a bill moving around in Columbus, SB 132, which involves all the gender neutrality talk that is so prevalent in politics these days, and why I still support him because of it. While I have strong ideas about social responsibility and behavior, I have known George Lang for a long time and know his mind and family. And I know his politics. I reached out to talk to George about this controversial bill and understand where he’s at on it, which I can sympathize with. Because when you deal with a lot of people and are functioning from a broad base, you go into it knowing that there are lots of people from lots of different backgrounds and beliefs that you are going to work with, and you must be secure enough in your integrity not to become corrupted by the exchange. And to understand George Lang, and this is kind of a running joke in Columbus in a good way, George is all about business first. His second concern is business first. His third concern is business first, etc. I certainly understand that George Lang is primarily concerned about bringing more business opportunities to Ohio. Having an excellent economy allows us to have deeper conversations about political discourse. And to attract businesses, you must address all their concerns, which presently are formulated by BlackRock and many other progressive influences. And when you are dealing with businesspeople, you are dealing with Chamber of Commerce types.

Chamber of Commerce people are different than other people, and when you are working to bring business into Ohio, you will deal with them.  Most members of the Chamber are not the kind of people writing philosophy books; they have room in their lives for how they make a living and maybe two other things: raising their families and a hobby, like golf.  They do not have the time, mental capacity, or even a remote desire to deal with political philosophy.  They want employees, they want to be in legal compliance, and they are interested in checking all their BlackRock boxes.  That is George Lang’s interest in SB 132, to stay consistent with his Business First Caucus and address the concerns of the Chamber types.  The SB 132 Ohio Fairness Act aims to add sexual orientation and gender identity to the list of protected classes under Ohio’s anti-discrimination laws, which employers are concerned about.  If Ohio has restrictions along these lines, investing the money it takes to bring business into Ohio is not attractive since people who run companies come from all kinds of political backgrounds. 

This move has been met with mixed reactions from both sides of the political spectrum. Supporters argue that this is a necessary step towards equality and fairness for all Ohioans, while opponents claim that it infringes religious freedom and could lead to legal battles.  The Ohio Fairness Act would provide legal protections for these individuals in areas such as employment, housing, and public accommodations.

The bill has also been endorsed by several prominent organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and the Human Rights Campaign. These organizations argue that protecting LGBTQ+ individuals from discrimination is a matter of fundamental human rights and dignity.

On the other hand, opponents of the bill have raised concerns about the potential impact on religious organizations and small businesses. They argue that these groups could be forced to violate their beliefs or face legal action.

However, the Ohio Fairness Act includes provisions that protect religious organizations and small businesses from being forced to violate their beliefs. The bill also has exemptions for religious schools and organizations, allowing them to continue operating according to their ideas.

I think the marketplace will determine the value of a product or service, such as Chick-fil-A, which maintains Christian values in its business model, such as not being open on Sunday.  People value those types of positions, and they tend to support businesses that reflect their values.  But it is up to the company to figure out its way; it is the government’s job, in this case, to remove the barriers so that the discussion can occur.  I’m certainly the type who would want the government to regulate sexually oriented businesses and businesses that embrace drug abuse.  I’d even support bans on alcohol because I see very little good that comes from a culture that seeks intoxication.  But some people like that, so I respect what people want to do within reason, so long as they don’t drag me into it.  Which is the balancing act on SB 132.  George is certainly a conservative, but as a legislator, he tells the world that Ohio is open for business.  And we may not like the kind of businesses wanting to come to Ohio.  Yet, we are opening the door to investment and the variety of projects people want to invest in while trusting that the marketplace will sort out the good from the bad.  I don’t want government to get into the business of deciding morality.  I like the government to remove barriers, even if walls might be desirable to my philosophy. 

Which is essentially what SB 132 does.  It will be the marketplace that determines the kind of culture we have.  If a potential business has employees or plans to hire employees from all sorts of diverse backgrounds, then that concern must be addressed at the point of investment, which is George’s interest in this bill.  Suppose a company is concerned about its ESG score, which those of us who are politically astute find objectionable and know that those ESG scores will not be in the future of American politics. In that case, most Chamber of Commerce people have already accepted that they will be a forever concern.  And if Ohio is not accommodating, they won’t get the opportunity to give a business ground to sink roots into.  And that’s the trick: how much compromise is appropriate in politics, a little, a lot?  And how do you not get lost in settlement to where you are just another political hack?  The George Lang I know stays out of those debates, even though people are concerned that he is losing his way, by staying focused on business first in Ohio and letting the morality of the marketplace determine success and failure, which I agree with.  We are free to debate the matter which will ultimately influence market share.  And to my eyes, and knowing enough about George to know his conservative feelings on these things in ways many people haven’t had the opportunity to, I can say that he hasn’t lost his way.  I would have much harder lines, but I also have the freedom to express my opinion more than he does, who needs to reach a broad base as a representative.  President Trump would have similar thoughts as George’s as a businessman.  You never want to create artificial limits for productive endeavors.  The philosophy and ethics will be worked out every time by the morality of the marketplace, which is where this discussion resides.

‘Irresistible Revolution’ by Matthew Lohmeier: Marxism is everywhere and people are just now willing to admit to it

I was having a perfect top-grade Kobe steak in Japan with a friend of mine, a retired colonel in the military when the next layer of discussions started to happen. Usually, in polite conversation, you talk about all the surface stuff from the time you order until the food arrives, between 15 to 20 minutes. And in those conversations, you talk about family, hobbies, and general interests that are usually neutrally driven, and non-political. I typically have many of those where the actual talk of anything never has time to hatch. Yet these days, more often, that polite conversation is not happening and people are discussing with me the heart of most matters, the actual survival of the human race in what appears to be the apocalypse as described by John in the Book of Revelation. Usually, among military people, people who work all their lives with ranks and procedures have typically kept their opinions to themselves. But growing among this group is a concern that they have had for a long time, accelerated by their observations of woke policies advancing into the military, they are not happy about it, and they want to do whatever they can to save it. My advice to them is to vote for Trump in the next election. But our dinner conversation went further than that, and a book recommendation came my way which I then read quickly once I returned to my room, and finished while on the plane back to the States. I was surprised by it because I usually get recommended these types of books, and I don’t learn much new. But the book Irresistible Revolution by Matthew Lohmeier was excellent and current. It’s only a few years old, but as I read it, I was surprised by the content because it went down the rabbit hole on Marxism in America in ways I had not seen before from what I would consider a mainstream, military personality.

Honestly, this is the talk of the world; people aren’t happy, normal, regular, everyday people. They ask me about the crazy politics in the United States and their first concern is “When will Trump be back,” because the world wants a strong dollar, and they want a political defender of it because most of the world sees what’s been happening now that the trouble has arrived at their front door by way of altered supply chains, the hidden tax of inflation, and the moral depravity of the current generation. And especially military people, once they achieve a high enough rank to express their opinions, they are concerned by what they see, which is the case of this author has a very respectable military career that migrated into the recent Space Force and has several advanced degrees. He’s not Alex Jones or Glenn Beck, who is known for conspiracy theories; he is a regular guy who has been among the best that the military produced, and I was surprised to hear other knowledgeable people beginning to talk about the cost of woke policy to American policy generally, and how destructive it has been. It was something that they wouldn’t have been caught doing before 2019, which was the last excellent year for America in most categories before Covid came along, and the unmasking of Marxism overtly showed itself to an unsuspecting public. What was unique about this particular book, Irresistible Revolution was that it was saying about Marxism much of what I have, but it was coming from another reliable source with a cutting critic that was very refreshing, and helpful to many people who are now clamoring for some sense of sanity, wondering what is wrong with the world.

It’s true, even though the Illuminati only lasted for just over a decade as a secret society political movement, before it was eradicated, dissolved under its own pressure, or went underground and stayed underground behind the Masonic activity disguised as something else, what political people would in the future call globalism, Marxism was a creation by them to perform precisely what we are seeing today, the overthrow of all the world’s governments so that a one world government ran by these secret society orders could then run everyone from the background. The culmination of all these plans over the last several centuries was in Covid, used as a bioweapon of terrorism to stun the world into global compliance. But the goal was always the spread of Marxism to every corner of the world to gain control of powerful countries’ governments in an international chess game meant to confiscate the world’s wealth into a centrally controlled power. Don’t forget Karl Marx and his friends at the time were Masons, and it was through that order that Marxism spread behind the many social masks they wore in public to advance the old aims of the Illuminati, which created the policies of Marxism and then spread them. How does anybody think that Vladimir Lenin was in exile and suddenly, by train, was sent to St Petersburg to overthrow Russia, and it did it on its own? That sounds pretty wild to regular people who don’t read many books and get their news from CNN or Fox News. But that is part of the mask that has hidden Marxism from everyone’s views because it was too wild of an idea even to be accurate. Yet, now we know it was all too real all along.

I have known these things about Marxism in our culture for the last three decades.  It has only been recently, though, that all the dots connected into how Marxism became the weapon of choice by the global insurgents and how they were able to spread their message, which was particularly appealing to low-level masonic initiates who thought they were studying the workings of Christ and not the ancient wisdom of Thoth and the seeding of the earth by an experiment of the gods contained in hidden history that isn’t so hidden these days.  The government of the world by these people using selected biblical passages to soft sell it to an unsuspecting public was Marxism, and we have it dripping wet all over American culture because nobody knew what they were dealing with.  The names were changed, and the motivations sold as wholesome and fair, until those masks have come off over the last few years to show what they were all along.  And in that crisis, we have very good people like the colonel I was talking about and military people like Matthew Lohmeier, who are heroically ringing the bell to alarm others to their discoveries.  I read Irresistible Revolution and thought it was about time for this level of conversation.  People just weren’t ready to admit to it before Trump came along and exposed this maniacal scheme.  But the truth is what it is, and Matthew Lohmeier hit the nail on the head.  And I can’t recommend enough to people his excellent book on Marxism.  But I would add, that it’s not just in the military, but in all levels of society, especially in corporate culture.  And Marxism will have to be destroyed everywhere in the world.  It’s the current world war.  It’s wrapped up in finance, entertainment, and politics; Secret societies spread it, not so secretly, and now the damage is apparent.  And before us for time to judge our reaction to it.  And with all that said, that Kobe steak was delicious, as was the conversation afterward.

Yes, Alex Soros is a Degenerate: How new media is changing the impact the donor class has traditionally had

It’s a point of frustration that I have even noticed locally among the donor types, a shaken belief that always lingering in the background, they were in charge and had more control over our republic form of government than other people who just showed up and voted in elections.  Because they give political candidates thousands of dollars in local races or millions in national ones, there is an assumption that they are really in charge and that candidates win, lose, and do as they are told based on who gives them money.  In the past, this has hidden itself behind some other behavior, and so long as it wasn’t too noticeable, nobody asked too many questions.  That was the world that George Soros manipulated with his billions of dollars, and those like him, and essentially what has caused so much trouble in politics.  Again, I have watched this at the local level closely, and I know all the people involved, many of whom I like personally.  It’s a path paved to Hell with good intentions but always ends in disaster.  The media will lock itself to whoever has the money, and the political tide always flows to where the money is coming from, primarily left-wing causes.  The willingness to say to the world, I give more money to politics, so I’m much more in charge than everyone else, tends to fuel left-wing causes by default, even if the donors consider themselves Republicans.  Because such ways of thinking are authority-based, they align with Marxist sentiments, so all the money-class influencers tend to think the same way, that they are in charge, and everyone else needs to fall in line somewhere downstream.  That is the meaning behind the threat of Alex Soros, the young kid not yet 40 who inherited all his dad’s money for political activism to destroy the world according to what their money can buy with influence.  But times are different now, and Trump, the leading candidate for the next presidential election, called the kid a degenerate, and that is something new.  Something all those donor class types are going to have to get used to, especially young Alex.

The trend in the future of politics will not be toward more money invested; it will be in the creative use of marketing.  Of course, the machine wants to be oiled, and the entire political machine these days, as America formed, wants everyone to keep pouring money into it, including the whole Fox News business model.  The assumption is that influencers like Fox News or the New York Times could heavily influence the kind of politics that people voted for so that the more money spent, the better the results.  Of course, the people wanting that money to flow in their direction wish to maintain such a belief system.  But what is new is a collision of two things: the realization that playing such a game did not give us the results we wanted as a society.  And that with the decentralization of information, political candidates no longer needed the media to get their message out.  Trump is very much a creation of this new way of doing things, and the donor class moved to support DeSantis because they believed they had more control over the political process than they had, and they have been shocked by what they have witnessed in 2023.  No matter how much money or negative news coverage they created, it has not moved the needle away from Trump.  If anything, it has only solidified the base of those candidates more.  So what’s all that about?

Ironically, I had great clarity on this issue while traveling a lot lately, not just seeing different cultures around the world and how they do things but hanging out with my grandchildren while visiting Disney World.  Here, they had access to the best things that the media could buy with 100 years of being at the top of the pyramid, which is what Disney essentially is: a media empire that believes it is the ultimate donor-class investor.  And with people from roughly 30 to 70, Disney is all they know and the traditional news powerhouse for information.  But my grandkids could have cared less about any of those sentiments.  Disney hasn’t made any new great musicals for their generation, and they don’t care.  Instead, while we were in line for some magnificent rides, my grandkids were excited about the latest YouTube drop of Skibidi Toilet, a whole topic.  I was in line with them watching the video drop that jumped to 1 million views within 15 minutes of airing.  Disney can’t do that, as most media companies can’t even comprehend that level of engagement.  The future of politics will be who can best utilize new media, not throw money at the traditional form, which has been easy and gotten us all into so much trouble.  The Trump presidency is a new media endeavor that will change politics forever.  As they have classically thought of themselves, the donors are learning how little control they have over anything anymore.  And it’s painful for them.  But the world will not be the same for young Alex, the Marxist makeover of his dad George and their many billions invested to essentially buy whores in the media who will do anything and say anything for a little bit of easy money. 

With Trump calling Alex Soros a degenerate, he is essentially establishing his independence from the money machine which has traditionally ruined politics.  Alex thinks he inherited the ability to body-slam any political rival with sheer money from his dad.  But in this world of tomorrow, a person like Alex could spend billions of dollars in traditional media, and achieve nothing, not a move of the needle in the least.  And that isn’t just because it’s George Soros and his kid, but that’s the rule for everyone.  When people talk about how they want to drain the swamp, they also mean the money that flows into it, making the water as deep as it is.  People weren’t kidding; they are tired of not having representative government, and we are witnessing a reasonably peaceful rebellion against the donor class who have screwed up so much over a long period.  Alex Soros cannot do as his dad has because the media has lost its trust and power. Therefore, no amount of money can give them back their reputation.  There is no sucking up to Disney with millions of dollars in ad revenue because the next generation isn’t watching Disney; they are watching Skibidi Toilet episodes, which have replaced the Disney Channel and Nickelodeon programming.  And, for the first time in American history, political candidates are now free of the donor class, which is what Trump’s political investment has displayed with great fanfare.  He’s right to call Alex Soros a degenerate.  But so are a lot of them, and what they are learning entirely too late is that people are upset with how the donor class has tampered with their lives by simply outspending normal people to have more of a voice in politics than they should.  And it has been shocking, but is the state of the world of tomorrow and the politics that manage it.

The Marxism in Our Finance Industry: Teaching people to smell their own bad breath

The answer to where all the dumb ideas come from is now quite obvious, the finance industry is dripping wet with Marxism and has now for many years.  It gets hidden behind polite conversation and golf games, but fundamentally, the entire industry is functioning from Marxist inspiration, from the works of Karl Marx and not the great work of Adam Smith from The Wealth of Nations.  So when you have the question, where do all these dumb ideas come from? Well, it’s relatively easy; it comes from what people are willing to do to get money from those who have it.  Personal politics are not so important to people until their financial needs are met.  Until then, they will sell just about anything to make a living, and the Marxist insurgents have figured this out over a long period.  Now, I know quite a few financial types: bankers, investors, and money movers.  As I’ve said many times, most people I know are very wealthy.  They don’t see themselves as Marxists and likely have never picked up a book on Karl Marx.  The grim reality for most is that people only have room for a few things: how they make money and what they spend it on.  Anything outside those parameters is considered useless, so we ended up with the philosophy of Marxism in our finance industry.  When most of the common talk is about golf scores and interest rates, there isn’t much room for a deeper discussion on the things that truly impact our culture, especially financially.  Most people who work in finance are like those who can’t smell their own bad breath; they don’t know they are Marxists.  They know the rules of the games they are playing.  They have no room for the question as to who made those rules up.  But the answer is global Marxists who purposely infiltrated the world’s money supply and have been the advocates for radical progressive politics across the globe, pushing people into outright communism as a result. 

They know that much; it’s easy enough to turn the ship back toward prosperity, just by understanding that more free-market ideas will inspire dramatic spikes in GDP.  However, removing the Marxists from finance is a bit trickier, and it will take several administrations of pro-capitalist growth to implement, well over a decade of work because the Marxism sickness that we see now is so embedded in our everyday lives that people can’t smell their own bad breath in regard to it.  They understand capitalist ideas when it comes to sports, talk about football games, and especially how to get a lower golf score.  But in the world of finance, they are lost to themselves to apply the same logic.  So until we have the same kind of discussions about Marxism and capitalism, people won’t see the problems they are creating in the flow of the money supply.  Most of our conversations have been about whether or not Marxism exists, while all these terrible things have been hidden in plain sight.  But the source of abuse of much power is in applying Marxism to what people will do to get access to money, instead of making it so that people will work harder and with more innovation in order to expand some market-driven necessity.   The tampering with that process by the financial industry has caused most of the damage we see today.

I was fortunate to have just about every kind of catastrophe in my life regarding finance, and at a tricky part of my life, a wealthy and influential figure in the Cincinnati economy gave me some great advice even though he was gloating at the time about his massive power and ability to crush anybody who stood against him.  He told me, “he who owns the gold rules,” as he was about to essentially destroy my life as much as he could because I was doing something that would cost his partners many millions of dollars at the time and put the politics of Cincinnati on its head.  But the lesson was worth more than any money I could have made at the time because I could put into practice ideas of capitalism and free myself of Marxism, which became quite clear to me in this experience.  He finished his advice to me by saying, “And you have no gold.  So you don’t rule.”  And that statement sent me on a path in life that has been very beneficial.  I have a bit of a temper, likely the worst anybody has ever encountered, but I have always learned not to show anybody the cards I’m playing with over time.  So to say the least, I took that conversation to heart and have spent the next thirty years fighting the things that made that guy have so much gold to rule over others because he was clearly a bad guy in the world.  But to hate money because of him was not the answer.  It was the way he thought and how the system was rigged to put money in his pocket to rule over others and not in the bank of people who otherwise deserved it, people of merit who had worked hard, done everything right, and made the world a much better place through capitalism.

We tend to incorrectly identify all wealthy people as greedy capitalists, which is part of the scam.  Most people who are very rich arrived with that wealth through Marxism and controlling markets for that philosophy, not through the free market associations of capitalism.  So, we never see the truth because we start with all the wrong definitions for what we are dealing with.  And without understanding what things are, people are easily seduced into some faulty philosophy that is essential Marxism hidden behind a veil of free market capitalism.  But in actuality, the truth of our economy is very far from what we thought it was.  And these radical leftists who have become very wealthy with this scam of brokering power to government in ways they could never otherwise dream of have put them into a position to force all of society to dance to their whims, to get their fingers on enough money to live on.  Few people are willing to stand for moral righteousness without cash in a bank account.  They tend to be bolder when they have full bank accounts, but often won’t do much publicly that might jeopardize that status, so the Marxists who now control most of finance have no incentive to change their ways because this system has worked for them.  Of course, in my personal story, I was able to get that guy back, and I profited quite a lot from that revenge.  But that’s another story all its own.  The purpose of this discussion is that I found it easy to destroy Marxists once you call them what they are by name and don’t allow them to hide in the background any longer.  President Trump has also figured that out over the years and is setting up a second term to do just that.  And in so doing, it will have quite an impact, for the better, on the finance industry.  So, there is plenty to be hopeful about.  It’s certainly not a done deal that global communism will ruin the world through finance, as it appears now.  There are a lot of changes coming.  But that is how we arrived here, and the lessons learned for America are pretty explicit.  And we can Make America Great Again. But first, we must remove Marxism from our finance industry as a top priority, which starts by admitting that the problem is far worse than we thought.

Communists and Democrats are the Same Thing: Yes, there will be punishments, what did they think was going happen?

To answer a question honestly that came up recently between Sebastian Gorka and Hugh Hewitt regarding a likely second Trump term, the answer is yes to the punishment of communists.  It became obvious to Hugh while talking on a podcast that the inevitability of punishment for all that has been done is going to happen and is that how we really want to see ourselves, as the punishers of injustice instead of forgiving our enemies and moving on.  I would argue to Christian-minded people that God needs warriors who will fight for what’s right, against the impediments of the Divine Council as stated clearly in Psalm 82 and many other places in the Bible.  This idea of turning the other cheek and being weak and meek socially is an interpretation of history as given to the human race by those who wish to conquer it.  And now that evil has had its way against us all for far too long, it is time for a payback, so yes, this is going to be something that conservatives are going to have to deal with, and as it is measured what the moral position is, punishment of evil as it has worked its way into our world through the vile tentacles of communism has to be engaged and defeated.  And that starts by calling it what it is, and not just letting outright Marxism hide behind the name change of the Democrat Party in America.  We have fought many wars over communism, specifically in America, yet we have allowed it into our culture directly behind the Democrat Party, which does a disservice to all who have lost their lives in that fight.  It’s time to stop playing around and to call the communists what they indeed are in America.  They are Democrats.

As people like Hugh figure it out, it’s OK to punish the bad guys, all those who call themselves “anti-capitalists” We have to correct something that has been broken for a long time, which goes back to the McCarthy Hearings from several decades ago when the communist scare coming straight out of the FDR administration of the 1930s had found its way into the blacklists of Hollywood, and people were being accused of such scandalous, and subversive behavior.  Democrats cried about the name-calling and coaxed society, a very conservative society, to stop calling everyone communists and to adhere to some made-up rules of controlled speech that allowed this hidden menace to percolate behind the polite orthodox of mainstream society.  But the failure of that approach is all too obvious now, many decades later in our current woke culture.  Why is the World Economic Forum and its quest for global, corporate communism using woke rules to use in their battle cry?  Because it has worked.  They watched it happen in the McCarthy Hearings in America and have taken that message to a much larger, global scale.  So, to answer the question that a lot are asking because President Trump is using the term communism to describe his political opponents, and the political left is apocalyptic about it, and so are the RINOs.  They thought they knew the rules of “free speech,” and they were not able to deal with this sudden, “correct terminology.”  So, for clarity, anybody who follows the philosophy of Karl Marx, which is what Democrats do, they are rejecting Adam Smith and embracing Marx, then you are some form of communist. 

Communism is a political philosophy that spawns from under the umbrella of Marxism, which comes from the works of Karl Marx, books like Das Kapital, and The Communist Manifesto. There has been a long push by liberals and all left-leaning advocates worldwide for socialism and communism as defined by Karl Marx.  So, anybody supporting those positions is a functioning communist, and that is essentially a state-owned means of production and a rejection of free market ideas, which is precisely what Democrats advocate for.  To hide their intrusion, they use terms like “equity inclusion” to essentially take away value and merit from society so that the state would then be forced to be the arbiter of justice, “social justice,” and take over all means of production.  And they have been heading in that direction since before the McCarthy Hearings.  And people are tired of watching their country fall to these Marxist insurgents, hiding behind controlled speech guided by Marxist-leaning institutions and turning to populism for satisfaction.  This is how we ended up with Trump in the White House and this push for another term to drain the swamp.  The hair we find in the drain of that drained swamp is the swamp creatures of various breeds of Marxism that have been residing under the surface just beyond our site.  You might see their ripples on the water’s surface, but their contents have remained hidden by a veil of polite society controlled by a lack of free speech.  But when you see political affiliates concerned about the terminology of discourse, such as racism, sexism, or even anti-semitism, you know a monster under the water of the swamp born of communism is lurking.  And in a very modern context, the politics of 2023, Democrats and Communists are precisely the same thing.  When people say, “You don’t even know what communists are?”  Just have them read the works of Karl Marx, and you will discover the truth for yourself. 

So, of course, there will be punishment, and it will be harsh.  These insurgents have misrepresented themselves in our culture and overtly lied to us.  And now, we must pick up the pieces and deal with the reality of that vast destruction.  For all that has been thrown at Trump and his supporters and the many lies over the years about the Democrat Party’s commitment to outright communism, of course, there will be hell to pay, and the best advice I can give everyone is to pay it and stop trying to conceal it.  Deal with it, take the lick, and see if you have a place in society in the aftermath. What these people have done to our country is far worse than any effects of a war in some far-off land.  This was in our backyard, restaurants, zoning, and jobs.  Communists have embedded themselves into every aspect of our American culture, and it’s time to end it.  More and more people are recognizing that the only way to do that is to elect Trump as a true representative in the White House and rip globalism from its influence over our country.  It’s interesting; I do get to travel around the world and see other cultures, and when you consider how tiny Japan is, it’s the number two economy in the world behind only the United States, what does that tell you about how Marxism has limited the rest of the world’s GDP?  (China is not a real economy; globalists prop it up through financial institutions committed to a change in the communist economy.  And you can’t believe anything they report in the media.)  This has been a real fight, and it’s time to stop playing games with the terms and call Democrats what they are: communists.  And to defeat them with all the vigor we have fought them in many wars.  Yes, it will be painful for them, but they should have thought about that before doing all they have done.   They have it coming and deserve all they get and if they have any honor in them, they won’t cry about it.  They’ll pay and be thankful for at least that opportunity.
