A Trump/Kennedy Ticket: The Way to Beat the Deep State with an Election

As far as I’m concerned, the primaries have been over for months. Clearly, the Trump-hating Republicans who are in name only will do anything that stops Trump from getting back into the White House, which includes running a third-party candidate to help Joe Biden with all his diabolical problems. I know Kari Lake is working really hard to position herself as Trump’s VP, and she would be great. She’s certainly earned it and will undoubtedly cheerlead the MAGA message. But we are talking about general elections here, not the primary, and we are talking about global forces who have embedded themselves into our election process, where the Deep State is very much seeking to remain in control. And if these arrests of Trump don’t do the trick, don’t expect them just to shrug their shoulders and say, “Golly gee, we tried.” These are killers; they have killed people all over the world and continue to do so to acquire power. Rigging elections is a way of life for them, and there are trillions and trillions of looted money at stake. They will not let Trump get re-elected and walk back into the White House to dismantle them. I would go so far as to say that they will do anything to hold power, and yes, that means anything. The easiest thing for them to do would be to run a third-party candidate to bleed off 15% of the Republican vote, the Never Trumper types to keep them from unifying with Trump by the convention. I would remind people, Trump supporters especially, that we haven’t seen anything yet as far as maliciousness regarding the 2024 election. The very bad in the world literally view this as their version of the Alamo. If they lose control, there is no tomorrow. 

That’s why I like this idea of a Robert Kennedy ticket with Trump. Trump has been saying nice things about Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running for president as a Democrat. And Kennedy has been saying nice things about Trump. I think what most represents America these days, which would genuinely bust up the international cabal that has taken over our government, is a “unity ticket” where there is a Republican and Democrat on it that could pull from both sides to completely overwhelm the rigged election system and the media apparatus that supports it. Kennedy is much more of a union supporter than I am, but that is a fight we can have another day. I like Kennedy in most other populist positions, especially from what I have read from him in his books on Covid. The story is very much populism against globalism, and when it comes to presidential candidates, Trump and Kennedy are the two biggest options on the world stage. And the Democrats aren’t going to let Robert Kennedy have a seat at the table. They want Biden not because he’s smart or is a great leader. The globalists want Biden because he’s compromised, and if you haven’t been paying attention, the cocaine story is great for them. The goal, after all, is to convince America that their means of government are ridiculous. Look at the monkey in the White House. And they hope that we will all turn to communism in the form of the parental China model out of frustration from all the negative news.

Meanwhile, Joe Biden leaves them alone and does what he’s told. The bad guys will not give that up, so if Biden is still alive, they want him. If he’s not, they want the next best stooge who can barely walk that will be utterly obedient to them. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is not that guy. 

So rather than waste Robert F. Kennedy, he would do well to be on the Trump ticket. I’ve said it from the beginning; I would like to live in a world where President Trump is considered a liberal. Because to me, he is. He and Kennedy are both East Coast liberals, from my point of view. I’m well to the right of Ron DeSantis, who is getting a lot of criticism about his position on marijuana. I’m against marijuana even as a medicine, so the debate and pot lobby is not on the table for me personally, so I always have disappointments in all these people. When Trump was pressed hard during his time in office, he did become a big-spending Democrat by default. I will never say that Trump is ultra-conservative in any way. But he did show me that he was willing to govern as promised, as a conservative, which he certainly did, and will do again. For this 2024 election, I don’t get hung up on the Ds and the Rs so much as the fundamental objective is to stop globalism. We are not talking about an issues-based Fox News election on policy. So, we need a Republican ticket that genuinely represents what Americans really are if we want to maintain the hope of recapturing our ability to vote. That means the results have to be much larger than our intelligence agencies can rig elections, and that means drawing from Republicans and Democrats in the general because the third-party option will be put in place in 2024 to erode away independents. To stop that from happening, there needs to be a VP with Trump that represents American populism in a big way and get voter enthusiasm from frustrated Democrats out to vote as if their lives depended on it because, in many ways, it does. 

Supporting such a ticket would not mean a surrender of conservative values. I want a day when I can run against Trump, where Trump is considered the liberal in politics because, functionally, he is. But you must have a country even to have that debate, and we are fighting to stop the corrosive effects of globalism internationally. You can see it all over the world from the World Economic Forum types, this is a rigged game, and they control most of the board. I’ll be the first to say it, the World Economic Forum if it were a country we would be going to war with because of their stated intentions against Americans’ lives. But because they are a government without a country, they have presented themselves as a menace, unlike anything the world has ever seen. That is the corrosive effect of globalism: the threat does not come from one country and its government but the kind of people who run governments through finance behind the scenes. These factions have burned Trump, and he wants revenge for the election they stole from him. Kennedy had his father and his uncle killed by the Deep State, and he has a restoration of his family name in mind. I see only good things happening if they join together. It would split the ticket in ways that globalism is not prepared to deal with and would provide the results that would disrupt the rigged mechanisms that dominate politics at every level. We must remember that the fights between parties is part of the scam; it’s how globalism works everywhere in the world. They create the conflicts, then pick up the mess from all the loose change that falls out of everyone’s pockets during the fight. Then when both parties are exhausted, they come in and eliminate them both and rule from the easy conquest. It’s a bloodthirsty game that is far worse than most people want to admit to. But it’s what we’re up against.

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.

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.

The Miracles of Free Market Capitalism at Put-in-Bay: When the market seeks to satisfy customers, good things happen

My wife and I have a great appreciation for the RV life. With our fast-moving lifestyle, it is the method that works best for us, and it’s uniquely American in that we have as part of our lifestyle an expectation of freedom that is certainly dominant with RV travel. We like taking part of our house with us when traveling, which we do extensively throughout the year. It is great to have your own bathroom, your own refrigerator, tools, and storage. And as far as camping, I prefer it to the static existence of hotel life where you depend on everyone else for everything, from food to rest. My camper has my own pillows and sheets that my wife keeps very clean. It makes travel much less stressful when you have your own stuff while staying in places far away. And that’s how we found ourselves up near Put-in-Bay, Ohio. I was at a competitive fast draw competition near that area, so my wife and I camped in our RV for a few days to participate. Then in our downtime, we went over to South Bass Island, where Put-in-Bay is, to look around. I wanted to go to the Perry Museum because I love the Oliver Hazard Perry story of stopping the English during the War of 1812, so because we were camping, we had the flexibility to do that kind of thing while in the area. Plus, there was a really nice campground over on South Bass Island that we have been thinking about as a family trip, as a way to explore all the area islands in the near future, so we wanted to see how the ferry system worked for taking RVs over to the island. 

Of course, Put-in-Bay is very nice, they call it the Key West of the North, and as everyone knows, I like Key West for the audacious independence that it expects, as related to other island lifestyles elsewhere in the world. What’s astonishing about Put-in-Bay is that it’s so close to the border of another country, yet it’s in Ohio, and it has all the island vibes of Hilton Head Island and Key West all wrapped up into a kind of Charleston presentation. It’s a very unique place, and my wife and I enjoyed our visit after doing well in the competitions. For me, it was a rare down day that I greatly appreciated. But what was most impressive to me was the Miller Ferry system itself. I have had the benefit of traveling worldwide and have seen many ferries, many of them creatively stuffing as many people as possible onto their boats to make as much money as they can. But the Miller Ferry had the added complication of maintaining a high American lifestyle. South Bass Island has cars and, as I said, RVs. There is a really nice campground where you can RV camp, and people take their big rigs over to the island routinely. While going over and coming back, I watched the Miller Ferry crew completely load up one of their craft with many millions of dollars in personal RVs, and I couldn’t help but think of the complexity of insurance risk. Most places in the world, especially communist countries, would discourage such travel, where people expect to haul their own personal property over to a tiny island with such an expectation of freedom. That expectation is a particular trait that you find at RV campsites all over the United States and is very consistent as opposed to the type of people who stay at hotels and are dependent on that type of entertainment structure.

Those elements came together nicely on the Miller’s Ferry, where dozens of RVs, many of them over 53 feet long, loaded onto the ferry quickly and traveled across the lake as casually as people ride an elevator up a skyscraper. It was astonishingly competent to watch the ferry crew, which are all very good, load and unload the many millions of dollars of personal equipment so casually. Most organizations and countries that govern them would be much slower and more regulatory-bound. But within moments of landing, the ramp came down, and giant RVs of great worth were leaving the ferry to resume their journeys wherever they intended to go. I found it an astonishing display of competence driven by high personal expectations of customer service based on a lifestyle of freedom. It was audacious to have the ability to take your house to an island to stay for an extended period. Most places in the world would have a lot of regulatory burdens to overcome, and by the time they did, the option would have just been thrown out the window. Why do all that just so people could take their RVs over to a little bitty island? Why couldn’t people just rent a hotel room or stay in a condo? Why did people have to haul their RVs over to a place for such audacious expectations of freedom that were clearly the core of the lifestyle? The island is so tiny, only a few miles across in any direction, that golf carts are the most dominant form of travel. People do drive their cars around, but golf carts are the way to go. The exhibition displayed the difference between government-run facilities and private ones.

The Miller Ferry organization, a private one that has grown to meet the market demand, had no trouble handling even the most complicated loads they did all day without incident. People loaded onto the ferry without crashing and causing other people any trouble, and they did it day in, day out all day, well into the evening. The crew wasn’t overly regulatory and panicked, as you see in many government facilities when they have to deal with crowd management. With the Miller Ferry and the culture of South Bass Island, the expectation is to take care of the customer experience as well as possible, which certainly is not the case with any government-run endeavor. The market serves the consumer and doesn’t seek to control the consumer. If the consumer wants something, then the market finds a way to satisfy that market need, even if it’s as audacious as taking your own home over to a remote island for a day or two so that the traveler can enjoy the comforts of home in their own private way. The amount of cost and investment needed for that experience to happen is ostentatious. Yet they facilitate that life at South Bass Island with the option of the Miller Ferry. As we were experiencing all this, I had to think of where in the world such a display was shown in this way, the level of competence, the expectation of delivery with such a large payload, and people’s private homes. Europe and Asia do not facilitate lifestyles that even have those options as tangible. Their roads aren’t big enough for our RV lifestyle in America. Let alone have a ferry that can take those big vehicles over to an island for vacation. And if the governments were in charge of the ferry, it would take all day to just run through all their regulatory checklists. But at the Miller Ferry, everyone loads up in minutes. They are off just as fast. Nobody crashes. Nobody fights. Nobody worries. People just do what they do and enjoy doing it, which is a wonderful example of how it should be everywhere in the world if only free market capitalism were as vital as it is at South Bass Island.

10 Foot Aliens Land in Las Vegas: When the government reports on conspiracy stories, it’s clear they are trying to hide the really bad stuff

I’ve talked about aliens quite a lot, and I think there is much merit to the seeding of human civilization by colonists from other planets. I hesitate to call them aliens because, in many ways, they are likely us. So perhaps they aren’t so alien after all. The religions of the world, when studied, point to far more color along these lines than just some lazy assumption from academia that humans went from being cave people to advanced religions in too short of a time, and there is still a lot to uncover regarding our deep and mysterious past. If a UFO landed and many people stepped out of strange spacecraft, I would not be surprised. I would find it shocking that it wasn’t the case, as opposed to such an occurrence being unique. The evidence points to interactions between space colonists and humans being far too frequent, including currently. The esoteric nature of secret society attachment to governments is the first clue. World War II was essentially started along the lines of occult belief, which directly related to UFO study, by the Nazis, and thus, the creation of the United Nations was born from the disturbances of various European occult beliefs colliding with global politics in a world suddenly not so big due to increases in transportation and communication. The aliens have always been with us and likely work in the background with occult contacts as recently as one minute ago, somewhere in the world, and the noise behind most modern politics likely points to these interactions, which are cleverly hidden by various religions of the world. But those are not the real dangers. Aliens are not to be feared. It’s the governments of the world that are the problem as they always have been, and the push for power that often comes in how information is obtained, and from what source, and the desire to monopolize those interactions for silly human vision, not so enlightened by proper philosophy.

And if you study these things long enough, you’ll start to see a pattern emerging, and there is one emerging right now. You know that governments are in trouble, not just the American government for its work in election fraud to put a phony president in office, or the world governments hidden behind the corruption of the World Economic Forum and the world of global finance that has been caught killing millions of people with Covid, starting useless wars for the desire to convert the world from nationalism to a borderless aristocracy, and they are worried that people are going to unite and rally to their destruction. So they are trying to appease the masses with reminders about how government is there to protect us from the scary beings from outer space. When you really peal back the orange at the root cause of much intelligence agency trouble, in their narrative that everything has to be so secret for national security and the safety of the public, what it really means is that they want justification to operate without Constitutional parameters over fears that a superior technology might come along and destroy the entire human race.   I think these interactions won’t ever happen because that relationship has existed since the beginning of time. We are them, so why would we destroy ourselves? But governments that want to grab power and stay in power use the fear of the unknown to bypass our laws, which they have then carried over into other aspects of political life. This results in the mysteries we see regarding UFO reports and the various governments’ conspiracy to conceal them or use them to strike fear in the public and remind them how much people need a government and an all-powerful military to protect them. In truth, it’s just another big government scam to spend money, hide things from the public, and grow government for some elusive goal of national defense.

You can always tell when the government, as an organized unit of malcontents, gets itself in trouble by the way they behave. UFO stories start to leak to the public during this time, and that has been the case recently. The only thing that can save the governments from serious prosecution and even rebellion is to attempt to unite the world behind a common fear of planetary destruction by little green men who may invade us at any time. That was certainly the case when prime-time outlets have been covering stories that the military had been experimenting on crashed UFOs by actual leakers who witnessed the occurrences. But even stranger was the UFO crash that occurred in the late spring of 2023 in Las Vegas, where a few kids witnessed a crash that actually left a dent in a parking lot and found a bunch of 10-foot-tall aliens trying to cover their tracks of their cloaked ship failing to conceal itself while they bumbled around like the three stooges trying to use local construction equipment to clean up the crash. The kid reporting the accident sounded credible enough. And as usual with these kinds of things, the elusive Men in Black came along in the days after to do what they do to contain the public image. It was all standard UFO stuff. Many people think the Men in Black are U.S. government people; others think they are trying to appear that way and are actually not human in origin. There is a lot of talk about them in the great book and movie, The Mothman Prophecies. They were reported at the Las Vegas crash site. But what is really strange is that the mainstream news so joyfully reported the incident. That’s when you know something is really wrong.    

I would say that UFO crashes and interactions with lifeforms from other planets are common. The way that the government manages the stories is that they keep everyone isolated and not talking to each other. That is until the government needs a cover story for its own existence. And when that happens, the reports of these UFOs start getting reported in the mainstream news, with the obvious hope that people might be frightened by them and run for the skirt of mother government and its perpetual desire to be the helicopter parents of all existence. It’s not alien invaders we have to worry about; it’s the corrupt governments of the world and their desires for power that are the real danger. And when they start talking about aliens, you know they are worried about people noticing all the bad things they have been up to, which would inspire people not to trust them. Because aliens, for them, is their cheater card that they keep in their back pocket to bail them out when all else fails. And using the rules I always talk about, judging people based on what they do, not what they say, what the government is doing has been criminal, murderous, and driven by deep corruptions. And people are aware of it, more people than usual, which is scary for them. Because there isn’t enough government to hold back the anger of the world, and based on what we know about things, even the alien stories aren’t going to contain the anger that people justifiably feel.

Defeating Evil Governments: A society with lots of guns and Bibles keeps people free

It’s been a more common occurrence, of course, that I discuss religion. I mean, look at the times we are living in. There is an astonishing level of evil on display here, so it comes my way a lot; what should we do? So, it’s unsurprising that I talk about religion; it has always been a big part of my life. But I have a lot of other things going on in my life that I felt I could talk about everything else without imposing myself on the people around me. I deal with a lot of people with lots of different viewpoints. Everyone knows that I’m morally very rigid, but I am accommodating toward other people, perhaps extraordinarily. But religion isn’t a new thing for me. I never said a curse word in my life until after I was 18 years old. I never drank alcohol until my church pushed it on me to take communion. I despise belching and farting, especially when people can hear it. I’ve never smoked marijuana or done drugs of any kind. I went to church most Sundays of my life until I was about 22. And I stopped because the pastor of my church had his wife leave him, which I never forgave him for. As I said then and still say it today, how do you lead a church if you can’t lead a family? (she got bored with Church life and had a wild streak hit her in her middle years. But I still blame the husband when things like that happen)  Church wasn’t religious enough for me, so I stopped going. I never felt it did a good enough job of fighting evil. I could go on and on, but as a person, I’ve never been a very loosie goosy person to be around. So when all the avenues of evil show themselves for the slaughter, I feel that there is a license to express myself accordingly. 

So yes, it has always come up, I handle religion cordially, but I often don’t impose my views on people because, literally, nobody has the kind of views about a good and moral life that I do, so I’ve learned to keep a lot to myself, just to have speaking relationships with people. But my views are certainly not new. I’m talking about it more now because it literally comes up every day from someone looking for answers. And with all the talk about what’s going on in the world and the level of evil we are dealing with, I have a simple two-part answer strategically on how to defeat our foes that I’m happy to share. It’s why I don’t worry too much about the level of corruption we are dealing with because I have always seen the clear path out of it. Of course, I’m happy to share that self-assurance with anybody who wants to listen. However, for context, even the most devout Baptist minister would find it hard to live with my rigidity religiously. My comment to people who are curious is that evil is struggling to remain hidden, and now they are going all out toward apocalyptic activism. But the trajectory of history is against them, and they are behaving out of desperation because they know it. So, when people ask me about the solutions to our modern problems, I assure them that the bad guys will not win, especially in America, for two very specific reasons, the Bible and gun ownership. As long as those two things exist in America, the government might fall away, but the people will go on as usual. Because we are not ruled, we have representatives. If they go bad, that doesn’t mean all the people follow. Instead, far from it.

I was at one of my favorite bookstores recently in Dayton, Ohio. It has a tremendous second floor, large enough to comfortably throw footballs in, big high ceilings, and lots of open space, and I took a minute to marvel at the religious section. The number of Bibles on display for sale was bewildering, and they are there because Bibles make up a substantial percentage of all books sold. And when people buy Bibles, they read them, so a literate society makes for one that won’t fall for all the ridiculously stupid leftist ideology. The really religious people, the people who read the Bible, tend to make up most of the homeschool movement, which I’ve always been a part of in some way. My children are currently homeschooling my grandchildren, for instance, because the schools are such cesspools of evil, exposing them to it just isn’t in the cards of reality. But I get to speak with a lot of very smart people because they essentially read their Bibles. Reading as an action makes people more intelligent, so Bible reading gives people who do so advantage over those who don’t. And the Bible’s contents took many lives to reach our hands. Every time I see a bunch of bookshelves filled with Bibles knowing that people are buying them up often, I consider how many millions of people died just to get those lines printed on paper for people to read. It’s quite a journey filled with a lot of spilled blood. But printing presses, mass publishing, and a stable economy have made Bibles so common that there is no way to go back in time to where totalitarian governments ruled by ignorance. That is clearly the modern strategy to rule over the world, to keep people ignorant and groundless on morality. But as long as there are Bibles in the world, tyranny will not be able to take over where people read them. That’s why communist countries are so hostile toward the Holy Bible because it’s nearly impossible for them to rule over literate people with beliefs in good and evil. 

But reading the Bible isn’t enough. Throughout most of our history, just reading and sharing certain Bibles, such as the Wyclif Bible in 1384, could put you to death. A lot of people have been burnt at the stake or killed in multiple ways just for reading the Bible or seeking independent spiritual belief, a belief away from the governments trying to impose on people a belief system they otherwise wouldn’t accommodate. That’s why our gun culture is so influential and why they want to get rid of guns so aggressively. Guns keep the government from coming door to door and burning people at the stake because they want to read from the Bible or express their values which go against the lunacy of a tyrannical government. So long as those two things are in a society, the intentions of evil upon a mass culture will fail. In America, currently, the government is failing, but the people are not. This government tries to rule through fear, mechanisms they learned in academia. But the assumption all along was that they could turn America into an atheist nation and a gunless nation. And they haven’t been able to come close on either point. And so long as guns and Bibles are part of American culture, the intentions of the communists, the Democrat losers, the globalists, the gangsters who are now in our government to hide from the prosecutors who used to haunt them, now they are them—all of them will fall short on their objectives because, for the first time in history, people have access to massive self-defense, and the intelligence of the written word, the ability to think for themselves. They don’t need government. But the government needs them. And in times such as these, a way of life that I have been more than prepared for every year that I’ve lived it, the things I have said over all that time are only becoming more obviously true. Keep your guns close and use them to keep reading from the Bible. And if you do those two things and share your enthusiasm openly, the bad guys will lose in this apocalyptic war, which will be fun to watch.

King Solomon’s Temple: The reason the enemy wants us to desecrate our own bodies

I’ll tell you if you promise to keep it a secret. It’s not something I talk about often, but I think now might be a good time. I have a secret love I think about a lot and have had for many years. An obsession, really. I love the Temple of King Solomon in Israel and have since I was very little. Its one of those stakes in the ground of human civilization that I think is a massive statement by any emerging culture and was the window into the world of how the world thought before the great Library of Alexandria was destroyed right around the time of the Roman Empire struggling to maintain its power, starting around 145 BC, then being demolished in 391 AD. And that is what the Holy Bible means to me, validated through archaeology, that enough of the contents are very ancient, going back to 1400 BC to 2000 BC, respectfully, with dates that are reliably coordinated, and I really find that window into the world valuable at that time, especially the specifics of temple life under the rule of Solomon. Why had a group of people gained so much power in a relatively short time after invading the pagans of Canaan and establishing themselves as a force in the world? Because understanding that story helps us understand our own story in America, where a very similar trajectory of action occurred, and the challenges of maintaining that success were very difficult. Solomon’s Temple continues to be one of the hottest pieces of real estate in the world, with the Muslims now occupying what’s left over of the remains, where the popularly known Dome of the Rock now sits over the exact spot where Abraham supposedly went to sacrifice Isaac. The Muslims believe it was the older son, Ishmael. And it’s where Muhammad journeyed into the heavens in what sounds like a UFO encounter to me.

King Solomon’s Temple

Without question, that exact spot is where King David, Solomon’s father, set up a location for building the Temple had an importance that peaks back into prehistory to the beginning of time. Many people literally believe that the stone where all this happened is the precise spot where the European continent, the African, and the Asian land masses join perfectly and is the spot for the beginning of the world, literally. What we do get in the Bible is fragments of fragments of information from those prehistory times, but it’s valuable what it is. Then to understand that all of Western Civilization essentially evolved from the building of the Temple and the loss of it to history is exceptionally significant. For instance, the east/west alignment where the high priests would make their sacrifices then carry the elements to where the Ark of the Covenant sat on the exact spot where the stone on top of Mount Moriah peaked into the floor of the very elegant Temple finished in 960 BC after eight intense years of construction. They would pour the blood of the sacrificed animals over the Ark to atone for the people’s sins to the God Yahweh, traveling east to west to mimic the actions of being thrown out of the Garden of Eden, which occurred from west to east. There is a lot of growing evidence that this casting from the Garden was more than a metaphor. The lost land of Edan looked to be in America, and it was the Middle East where all people had to make their way again, knowing that they had knowledge of Good and Evil, a world of pairs of opposites that would always be tainted by sin and appeased by sacrifice.

So the building of a massive Temple, respectful of all the other attempts in the world on such a grand scale, says something about the culture that created it, a kind of heaven-on-earth mentality. But as humans, it only represents the eventual efforts of every human being. And that is for people to experience the relevance of a temple individually, for their personalized needs. Because, in many ways, humans need to see themselves as their own version of King Solomon’s Temple. No matter where in the world they occurred, Temple construction needs to inspire in people the concept to usher such reverence into their own lives. And that is how I’ve always seen the human body, as a temple built by God for the purpose of living a good life. And that we are supposed to treat our bodies with that level of respect. A human body is not something to despise or cast aside as inferior but is in itself a temple for the human soul, and it should be treated as such. We should not desecrate our own bodies, and for me, that means not coloring our hair, getting tattoos, breast implants, body piercings, or abusing ourselves with alcohol and drugs. Like King Solomon’s Temple, we should care for our bodies like the sacred objects that they are. I’m now at an age where I have advised many young people on these things. The ones who listened have pretty good lives. But many didn’t listen; they have many problems, and it is painful to see. Because they were told, just as I would say to everyone even now, to treat your temples well, give them great respect, and you’ll find a much better life in the aftermath than if you allow your Temple to be desecrated.

Of course, Solomon’s Temple didn’t last long after his sons took over and started fighting among themselves. The surrounding kingdoms, especially in Mesopotamia at the city of Babylon, were very jealous and wanted to take out the people who built such a magnificent place. In 605 BC, Nebuchadnezzar invaded and plundered the Temple stealing the wealth and taking it to the temples of Babylon. By 586 BC, the entire Solomon Temple was destroyed, and there has been much effort in the world, including the current tensions in the Middle East presently that want to rebuild the Temple and restore the world to how it was before that invasion, including many secret societies as their sole purpose for existing and the political movements that spawn from them. And such a downfall started when the Kings of Israel began to allow the desecration of their Temple to false idols and impure beliefs, which culminated with King Manasseh failing massively and his grandson King Josiah attempting to restore the Temple of its lost function. I look at a lot of older people, and I see many who have allowed their temples to be desecrated by many bad decisions in life. Children are new, like the Temple of Solomon at first. But they become disasters as adults when they allow their temples to be desecrated by invading cultures with bad ideas. It’s a lesson in values that I find well described in the effort of civilization to build King Solomon’s Temple in the first place and how other jealous cultures would be inspired to ravage it with great hatred. And to suppress that culture with desecration. This is precisely what we see happening to America now by the jealous cultures of the world. They want to desecrate our country, starting with each and every one of us, through LGBT Pride flags, loose abortion cults, a society of too much drinking, too many drugs, horrendous social customs, and a terrible government-controlled public education system. Our temples are under attack, and we let the enemies desecrate them without a fight. And that is how a lot of evil starts in the world and brings so much misery with it.

The Achilles Heel of The Administrative State: Why to Pick Trump over DeSantis

Political theater aside, there are very declarative reasons to pick President Trump over Ron DeSantis in the upcoming election in 2024. And people are on to it. It’s rooted in the audacious statement by Trump about his former White House Press Secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, when he called her out for not properly representing him on a Fox News segment, declaring her an asset of the globalists. It’s the Achilles Heel of the entire globalist movement and the politics of the Beltway, the thing they don’t want anybody ever to learn because they think we are all too dumb to see it. It’s the concept I talk about in my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, where the gunslinger walks into a saloon in the pouring rain and drinks with his back to a room full of killers. But nobody makes a move because their first priority is to measure if they can use the stranger to their advantage before any other consideration, and the gunfighter uses that knowledge to destroy them all before they even realize what’s happening. Every great executive understands the concept, which, naturally, Trump does with his experience in private enterprise. People like Kayleigh McEnany, or Ron DeSantis, and the Beltway supporters hope to keep it a secret, but they need people like Trump. Trump doesn’t need them. And that is the true terror that is exploiting globalism all over the world presently. And in order to suppress that reality, if they lose control over election fraud and the media, they will find themselves in a world where they are not in charge, which is becoming glaringly obvious. People have always known these things in the back of their minds, but the promise of the Administrative State, the core of our education system from the beginning, was that communism would enter into the decision-making process, and group consensus would rule the day. Leadership by individuals would be replaced by consensus building. Which, of course, has turned out to be a disaster. And Trump knows it and exploits it to his political advantage.

The Fox News support of Ron DeSantis then becomes much more apparent. As a news organization, they cover the horse race of politics and are not interested in the solutions of political debate. They like the problems of politics and never anticipate that answers will ever come. That is how their business model is, to talk about the game, not the actual results of the game played. Fox News is all about providing color commentary in the days and hours leading up to a game, to use a sports metaphor, but once that game is over, they move on to the next big game, the next horse race. For them, it’s all about revenue generation, just like the Beltway culture is. They want people like Ron DeSantis, who need donors’ money and want to control what kind of color commentary Fox News will be discussing. And for them, it’s all security for their origins for making money because it provides a stable environment politically for their business interests, which have thrived under the illusion that consensus building by the Administrative State would be the method of the future, which they invested in. The big difference between Ron DeSantis is that he’s essentially broke. Without money in his pocket, it’s like going to a gunfight without a gun. He’s young and doesn’t have very much money. He has to make money for many years in his life, so that makes him much easier to control than someone like Trump, who makes it clear that if anybody betrays him, he will drop them like a rock into the ocean and never look back. 

Without Trump’s independent wealth, we would not have questions about the actual validity of the Administrative State and its controllers, the Deep State, which are globalists involved in finance. They built a rigged system, and they have a layer of bureaucracy that protects them from the impact of negative results. And that rigged system would have stayed intact if an independent person like Trump had never made themselves known to politics. Trump cannot be controlled because he is independently wealthy. Ron DeSantis might talk like Trump, but he can never act like Trump.   Someone will always control him because he needs someone to give him money in some way or another. Ron DeSantis could never walk into a room with his back to it and have people not trying to take him out because the rules of consensus building were never going to protect people from each other’s ambitions. But the good executive knows the value of leadership and can afford to alienate those who are ineffective, disloyal, or malicious. They know a million Kayleigh McEnanys are out there, people looking for a chance that only Trump could give them. But there’s only one Trump. And that is the source of the panic that is moving through politics with the new global populism that is reshaping the world currently. The political system was built to put money in the pockets of donors, lawyers, and consultants, with the eventual outcome producing something of a horse race for the media like Fox News to talk about but never to resolve. Because if the problems were resolved, then there would be nothing new to talk about in the media. A solution-based society does not help the social parasites fake that their Administrative State is effective. Only that the goal is to raise money to spend on the horse race, and that is the reality of the Deep State as they have been trying to hide it. 

Ron DeSantis ultimately made the same dumb mistake that most people do these days; they felt they were never going to get anywhere in life unless they sucked up into the Administrative State. Even Kayleigh McEnany fell for the bait. And the reason is that they don’t understand how executive leadership works. They understand the sentiments of the press. They know how to say the right things. But they don’t understand how the right things are determined because they are not independently wealthy and free to live on their own terms. But Trump is, which is why he’s such a terrifying prospect to the efforts of an Administrative State to continue selling themselves as useless solutions to a world that expects results. Nobody in the Beltway of politics or the media that reports on it is worried about Ron DeSantis. Without a Trump to hide behind, he’s all talk and can quickly be controlled by the forces who have always controlled politics. And those protections are built into the rules of polite society, that you don’t call people names, that you put up with deception by not discussing the real problems. But the only solution to the real problems is through directness, and that only comes from the independence of social interactions, where you don’t need others to validate your existence. And Trump doesn’t. People want to be near him because they want something from him. As a top executive, he knows that and can use that leverage in all his relationships, which ultimately is the essence of leadership. Aligning people with self-interest is the actual method of success. Consensus building is meant to hide the lack of results behind making everyone else feel important when they clearly aren’t. And that is ultimately what the entire election of 2024 is all about. Which only President Trump is an option for the future.

Our Flag is Still There: Obama isn’t sleeping well these days

Much like during the War of 1812, our flag is still there, despite the domestic terrorist attempts to destroy it. After all, that is what we are dealing with, domestic terrorists who now run our government and have been working to destroy America from the inside out for many decades now. So it’s nice to hear that Barack Obama is not sleeping so well these days. He’s worried about the disjointed media, meaning that the government has been unable to control the media the way the communist movement intended. And Obama wants to see Australia-style gun confiscation in America because the writing is not going well on the wall where the opposite thing seems to be happening. As a community activist and drug user, Obama has been committed to this destruction of America for his entire life. And so far, it hasn’t happened yet, and it appears to become less of a possibility now that people are showing massive mistrust in the government as opposed to how it was when he was president for two terms. The common belief is that this current Biden administration is actually the third term of Obama. That it is Barack Obama who is whispering in the ear of Biden and that he is really in control. But I don’t think so. Obama himself was always a puppet. It’s the people who controlled him who are really controlling Biden now. And because of all their terrorist efforts, they have the world we are living in now, where Trump hasn’t gone away, and people are more dug in than ever against the causes of progressivism. And it has frustrated their movement. 

I never accepted that Barack Obama was President. But you didn’t see me attempting to host an insurrection against his administration. Instead, I worked to help get Romney elected. But he turned out to be a major RINO, and we ended up with another term of Obama, just barely. I never believed that the birth certificate that Obama produced way too late was real. Sheriff Arpaio in Arizona made a good case for the fraudulent nature of the document that was eventually released to the public. The problem was that it had digital elements at a time when birth certificates had no possibility of computer-generated images. So, there were a lot of problems with Obama. As I’ve said many times, and the media underreported the story severely, Obama’s political career was launched in the living room of a known Weather Underground terrorist, Bill Ayers, a precursor to the modern-day Antifa terrorists that are certainly government-sponsored and saw a lot of activity during Trump’s administration. While January 6th, protestors of election fraud sit in jail; all the leaders of Antifa are free and waiting for their next government-sponsored terrorism campaign. So, hindsight makes it more evident that the Barack Obama presidency was a planned terrorist attack against the flag itself. They inserted a foreigner into our White House, hid his communist radicalism behind skin color; remember, we weren’t allowed to have judgments against Obama because we had to all prove we weren’t racists, even though it was Republicans who fought the Civil War to free slaves. Going through those years, people became very frustrated. Looking back on it, it’s all obvious what was happening. And people wanted a change, and that’s how we ended up voting for Trump. 

Barack Obama and his handlers of insurrection created the political climate we see now. You would have thought that they would have learned that communism doesn’t work; they never got control of the media in Cuba, Russia, Germany, or China, all the places where the communist model was being utilized. To think that it would work well in America, the place where all those places were fleeing communism to have an opportunity for freedom, the plan was to take that option away and that people were somehow magically going to accept authoritarian governments. Obama now has that same blank look that Bill Gates had when he realized that Covid wouldn’t work because states had rights the federal government couldn’t impose on. Oppps, just a small oversight in their plan to destroy the world with a One World Government. America has this crazy thing called the Constitution. And apparently, they didn’t study that in their maniacal schemes. These plans always sound great in the halls of academia, where Obama learned his radicalism at the University of Chicago, where Ayers the terrorist recruited him for an inside job that the Democrat party fully supported. Hide the communist radicalism behind a well-spoken person of color. And hope to guilt people into accepting authority rule of centralized government. The intentions of a communist coup are now apparent to everyone with eyes to see. During Obama’s years, people were reluctant to admit it to themselves. They wanted to give Obama a chance, to prove that they weren’t racist. But I knew it all along. One of my most popular articles to this day was one I did about nude pictures of Obama’s mom, who was a sleep around and had relationships with lots of communist men. It’s likely Obama has no idea who his father was because of his mother’s scandalous life. No wonder he was a druggy, a communist, and attracted to domestic terrorists. And for all those reasons, the people who hate America found a way to put him in the White House. And now they are so arrogant about their ability to rig elections and manipulate the media that they can put a brain-dead slug in office, and nobody even challenged them on it. It all started with Obama. 

Now they see that power slipping; they thought they controlled the corporate media. But now, the media has gone underground and is more independent than ever. And people aren’t afraid of the government because there are over 300 million guns in homes all across the country. The government just isn’t big enough to go door to door and impose authoritarian rule on everyone. They couldn’t do it during Covid, which was a test for a Great Reset. And now that people have been burnt trusting the government, it will be harder than ever to impose any government authority on anybody. Especially since the government does not control the media the way they hoped to by now. So yes, Obama isn’t sleeping very well.

The plans he has been involved in all his life are falling apart, and Trump is still the pick of the people. And Obama and his fellow government insurgents don’t understand why. Just as the English thought they were going to destroy the young country of America easily during the War of 1812. They found out that the war took too long, and people were too dug into this idea of being free to scare them over, back under the flag of England. Communism has been resisted in America, and now that people are awake, it’s hard for the progressive communists to do anything. And that’s why Obama isn’t sleeping well. This wasn’t how the plan was supposed to go. People were not supposed to run from Obama and into the arms of the ultimate flag-waving capitalist, Trump. This isn’t how the communist revolutions in other places went, so they had no idea that Trump would even be a possibility or that people would elect someone like him when the going got tough. But they did, and despite all the efforts at terrorism, our flag, and our country, is still around.

The Debt Ceiling Debacle: Government needs to be cut by 75% or more

The values expressed by the June 1st made-up deadline for the debt ceiling talks were that it was a bi-partisan agreement, which prevents a first-ever default, protects Biden’s key priorities and accomplishments, and rejects extreme cuts to programs for veterans, seniors, and what families count on. It protects Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid and keeps President Biden’s student loan relief program for 40 million hardworking borrowers. That is what the White House is saying about it, and it’s the kind of deal you will always get from a corrupt government with a serious spending problem. And the feeling is that Keven McCarthy got suckered even though members of Congress I like from my area; Jim Jordan and Warren Davidson were happy to push back a bit from the Republican perspective; ultimately, these budget fights are going to get messy and would have been better done now than later. Essentially, Republicans bit on the phony deadline for debt payments that Janet Yellen set from the Biden administration, and House Republicans didn’t want to be blamed for a default. We are dealing with radical employees here; it’s precisely the same argument we have been making for years in public schools where the government simply adds too much payroll, then expects taxpayers to pick up their massive expansion of government through job creation, then overpaying those employees. I tend to agree with Davidson and Jordan that McCarthy played a nice game, but in the end, there weren’t wins to justify the effort, and the Biden Democrats get to celebrate a win at taxpayer expense. 

We aren’t all on the same page with this one. The government needs to be radically shrunk, and it will put a lot of people out of work. The entire issue of these budget talks really comes down to whether we are a better nation with all the government workers we have who do so little for the nation in general. Most government workers make 30-40% above market value for jobs that aren’t needed in most cases. And we could likely afford to cut 75% of those and still get an operational government, much like Elon Musk did at Twitter. Real people who run real companies understand that budget impacts on the payroll are the biggest problem of inflated budgets. If employees get increased productivity with their staffing, and that productivity is valuable to the world, then a company could be said to be successful. But we’re not talking about that with this budget problem with our government. Government is a make-work enterprise where they fill positions we don’t need and pay people too much money to perform the job. I would say that the utilization rate of those employees is under 5%, where it should be somewhere between 70% to 90%. That’s the effective time employees are actually doing their jobs while being paid. What we are dealing with when it comes to government workers are lazy radicals who are hidden from job performance by government labor unions who continue to want to throw bodies at positions they create to expand government and take credit for it as politicians. And politicians are never going to give those jobs away without a major fight. And this debt ceiling talk of 2023 would have required people negotiating who actually want to fight. 

And the kryptonite for Republicans is always military spending, but even with that topic, do we really want to waste money on a woke military? In my view of this problem, everything is on the table. What does our military really do for us these days? It seems to only serve for wars that help globalism. It’s not preventing war with China. China has their guy in our White House. They are fighting wars through finance now; nobody is planning to fight a ground war now or in the future. So, Republicans need to be willing to go there. And they must be willing to take away the credit cards from big-spending Democrats and let them have their head-spinning moments. At some point, we are going to have to call the bluff of the big government types and stop wasting money on these massive government programs in every category. Lots of people need to lose their jobs, and a resizing of the real needs of our federal and state government needs to occur because, at the core of it, that is what we are talking about with these talks. Nobody wants to end well-paying jobs for a government that know-nothing politicians created for a job that society generally doesn’t want or need. We are going into debt to do jobs so that foreign interests can make money off the interest rate, and the only entities benefiting are the communist labor unions attached to the government workers. It’s a treadmill that goes nowhere, and we waste all our time and money on essentially nothing. Our nation has not improved because of all the money wasted on these jobs, and the economic value is a negative rather than a positive. We are paying a lot of money to get in the way of productivity, not to enhance it. 

And that’s where the really hard decisions come into play. We all have family members who work in government and did what they needed to to get a job with the government at that overpaid rate, with all the days off and work-from-home policies we have seen over the past several years. Government workers don’t think they owe any productivity to society. They believe that society owes them a job and that they’ll show up for it whenever they get around to it; that is the true cost to the productivity of our culture. We are paying a lot of money for a government that doesn’t do what we need it to. And unless Kevin McCarthy was willing to argue on those merits, the Democrats would own him in the negotiations. McCarthy made a good show of it, working himself over the Memorial Day Holiday, but Democrats knew from the beginning that all the mainstream Republicans could not fight the budget battle where it is really the costliest. Nobody wants to admit that their friends, family, and fellow union members are actually performing worthless tasks for a worthless government. Eventually, we will have to have this discussion because it is what makes deficit spending such a catastrophe. One that few, perhaps only the 20 or so freedom caucus members, are willing even to discuss. Government, in general, with all their labor unions attached at every level, is a bloated machine of communist corruption of no value, and to be a healthy country, those government jobs need to be private sector jobs at a much lower wage rate. And that would essentially destroy the inflated economy of the Beltway culture that entirely exists on debt, not the actual value of the jobs that fuel that economy. Then until we are willing to have that discussion, which is inevitable, we will continue to see debt ceiling discussions like this one with precisely these results. Kevin McCarthy never had a chance because he was making the wrong argument. The government positions that make up the bloated budget we are dealing with need to go away. People will have to be out of work. And the government will have to be significantly minimized, by 75% or more, because anything productive never happens. And we are a long way from that happening with these government politicians. A long way away from reality.
