Racism as a Weapon of Marxism: The violence in Cincinnati was about more than name calling

There is a lot wrong with what the mayor of Cincinnati, Aftab Pureval, did after the fight that broke out in the streets after a music festival that became a grotesque example of violence from minority communities.  And the reason for it was perfectly uttered by city councilwoman Victoria Parks, who said in the aftermath, “They begged for that beat down!  I am grateful for the whole story.”  Regarding some white victims of a horrible beating, where a mob of attackers consolidated on them ruthlessly.  A young woman by the name of Holly ended up sucker punched and knocked cold in the middle of the street, leading to what everyone already assumes: it’s dangerous for white people to walk around downtown.  Otherwise, they might get attacked like these people did after a music festival.  And they might not live through the encounter.  The whole incident has brought up something much worse that needs to be discussed, and that is how Marxism has been taught in these communities of color to destabilize capitalism in America and how they have hidden it behind skin color to always have a destabilizing element present to undercut American society.  It’s not a matter of skin color that is the problem; it’s what people believe and how racism has given them a victimized status that is always ready to advance elements of socialism to a cityscape environment, to destabilize it.  As the city leaders were getting vast amounts of criticism from Senator Bernie Moreno, Vivek Ramaswamy, Jennifer Gross, and many others, they dug in even deeper on the mob rule elements and justification for the beatings that took place on July 26th in the small hours of the morning.  It doesn’t matter what camera angle you look at; there was no justification for the mob that broke out to do what they did, because it wasn’t about words and feelings.  What they did intended permanent harm to the victims and was brutally hostile in its intent. 

There are very few people who get called as many names as I do.  Most of the people I know dislike me for some reason or another.  They might be nice to my face, but behind my back, they hate me very much and call me every name in the book, and even some in books that have never been written.  So I can say authentically that no amount of name-calling justifies the violence that we saw in Cincinnati.  It doesn’t matter what anybody said to anybody; nothing justifies a fight at that level. Remember, sticks and stones?  People would do well to teach that to young kids in school once again.  Instead, political movements like what we have experienced from Democrats have sought to use victimization status to weaponize entire groups of people, preferably by color, into doing their work of radicalism in overthrowing American society.  The things people say to me are that people wouldn’t say such nasty things about me if I fought people more.  But the truth is, I care so little for what people think of me that I don’t waste time on it.  To get violent with someone to convince them to change their mind, you have to care what they think, and I just don’t.  And for the people of color to react to something that a group of white Russians said to them that they believe provoked this level of violence, they would have to care what those white people thought of them to get upset about it.  I never get upset when people call me names because I don’t care what they think. 

And as far as conflicts, and I know Vivek Ramaswamy thinks this way as well, there is no reason to fight people with violence when you can destroy them with debate.  If you have to resort to violence to get your point across, you have already lost.  As I tell people who criticize me for my lack of engagement with my enemies, I say it’s because forcing someone to think something out of fear of a beating is an dishonest exchange.  I would rather want to know what they believe than to beat them into submission to make them think what I want them to.  The best tool for convincing people to accept your way about something isn’t to win them over the head with pain and suffering, but to convince them that what you think is in their self-interest.  So when there is violence like this, there is a lot wrong that indicates a very unhealthy society.  And racism isn’t the problem.  Racisim is the weapon of the Marxist movement in America that has been trying to advance socialism and communism in communities of color to use their lack of judgment to build armies on the street to drive through fear a social discourse, such as, white people aren’t welcome on the streets of Cincinnati, especially after dark unless they appease the tribal chiefs of the community like visitors from a foreign land.  Never forget, it was Republicans who freed the enslaved people, who fought a civil war to free people of color.  Democrats were fighting to keep people slaves, and that is still a problem, because people of color are still serving the political efforts of Democrats.  All the problems of this fight are Democrat problems.  Republicans have been the critics.

We’re talking about purposely not knowing what good conduct is in society and believing, because people on city council like Victoria Parks, or Mayor Pureval let them think it as social victims, that violence is acceptable as a means to restore to them as people of color, a restitution to the notion that all American society was built on the backs of slave labor.  Slave labor that those same Democrats utilized and fought a war to continue, against Republicans.  So racism in this case, and most cases, has been kept alive to drive forward Democrat complaints about the kind of society Republicans want to build, which then becomes a quest to destroy capitalism with Marxism, and that is the case with most race wars all across the world.  And people never get around to talking about it properly because Democrats need a hostile demographic that will fight for change, meaning a shift from capitalism to micromanaged socialism, or even communism.  A quick study around the world among most race troubles will have as its root cause provoked racism to create the ground troops for change, which is what was behind the fight in Cincinnati, Ohio, after that music festival.  White people aren’t allowed to say anything to people of color, otherwise they will get a beating down.  And that is the message of fear that is laying territorial claim to all that the taxpayer streets of Cincinnati belong to the mob, not the people with property value who pay for everything.  It doesn’t matter what anyone said to each other; there was nothing that deserved what happened.  The city was likely not well-prepared for the music festival.  It was Democrat incompetence on all levels.  But it wasn’t all because they were stupid.  Most of it was part of the planned attack against capitalist society by overt Marxists hiding their malice behind skin color to advance their diabolical cause.  And that was why there was violence in Cincinnati.  It’s not about fairness or equality.  It was exclusively about overthrowing our society and strengthening Marxist cells within American culture for power politics from a Democratic viewpoint.  And it is ruthless on all levels and can’t be tolerated.

The Greatness of Truth Social: Controlling market viability

Strategically speaking, as history views it, Trump’s commitment to the social media platform Truth Social will be the defining characteristic that was most important in the political movement that has reshaped the world.   And not enough people are talking about its importance.  But as I have said for a long time, and it’s more obvious now than ever, Trump’s creation of Truth Social, after he was kicked off Twitter following the 2020 election, will always be known as the most important thing he did.  And when it mattered most, just as the many court cases against Trump through lawfare were about to collapse upon him and he was facing hundreds of years in jail and things were looking very bleak, it was his ownership of Truth Social that completely reversed his financial fortunes back into the billions of dollars and took the gas out of the efforts against him, legally.  It’s quite an extraordinary story and is a lesson for all who study these kinds of things.  I love Truth Social; I was one of the very first people to join it as a social media platform, and I see it only getting better with time.  Even though the news that Elon Musk bought Twitter and renamed it X has captured everyone’s attention, Truth Social has quietly gained some market dominance worth discussing.  X has been a significantly improved social media platform under Elon Musk’s ownership, but it has seen a decline in influence.  It has maintained its value to some extent, despite Musk’s claim that X is the number one app in Japan.  There is significant growth on these social media platforms.  However, Truth Social under Trump has emerged as the next great thing, and at a considerable time.

Like many people on Truth Social, I received an offer to participate in their Patriot Package, which provides access to what they call Truth+.  It’s like Disney+ but without all the liberal programming.  So I accepted their offer and have been very impressed with it.   As I started using it, I have been thinking that this is the next best thing in entertainment to come out.  It works a lot like Roku and has its lineup of programming, complete with a TV guide that you can access on your television or computer.  But the programming is better, and this is early in the process.  Already, it has Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin News, as well as many other shows, such as The WarRoom, which is on Real America’s Voice, a news station that emerged to challenge Fox News during the same period of post-2020 censorship.  However, there is also sports coverage on it, as well as other programming that is growing, making it a viable entertainment option.  So Truth Social isn’t just a social media app where you can express opinions and get some basic news.  It’s becoming a complete entertainment package that is a real game changer for the media in general and decentralizes information in dramatic ways.  Even though Elon Musk restored President Trump’s X account once he gained ownership, and it could be said that a lot of what made Trump a great candidate in 2016 was his Twitter account where people could see him unfiltered from the media, Trump has kept his exclusive content confined to Truth Social out of loyalty and the necessity of development.  And it has paid off. 

I wasn’t sure what to think about Truth Social over these last few years.  I thought it was great that Trump could continue to post his opinions directly to the public, and people could pick up his message and carry it everywhere else.  And it has worked; it has dramatically decentralized the way a president of the White House communicates with the public.  For as long as there has been a media culture, they have had control over how and what communication is disseminated to the public.  This is something I learned several years ago: it is far better to provide your content to the public, even if fewer people initially see it, than to be accepted by a mainstream media outlet that has its own political goals.  Which we certainly saw with Fox News against Trump when they sought to make him a non-person.  That has been a widespread tactic and for well over a hundred years, has been a real problem regarding free speech.  Sure, you can say and think what you want, but what if nobody can hear it?  For a long time, newspapers and broadcasting dominated the narrative.  Twitter wasn’t the first social media platform to emerge, but it was among the first to provide alternatives, even if, under different leadership, it had a controlled intelligence narrative to steer society toward mass socialism, until Elon Musk changed that.  However, it remains that Truth Social is the official mouthpiece of President Trump, making it historically significant, and now emerging as something that I think will push the rest of the cord-cutters over the edge.  And Trump will replace people like Ted Turner as the king of entertainment options.  A sitting American president has never had the advantage of a personal media platform, which has been a source of incredible frustration for many American presidents, especially Theodore Roosevelt.  What Trump has been doing with Truth Social has been epic, but its significance is just getting started.

And when you control the message, or can’t, it decides what people want through the freedom of information.  In this way, people can express their political opinions without the filter of tampering to determine market viability.  Since the invention of mass media, essentially the printing press, human beings have never had this option authentically.  And now, through Truth Social, and subsequently Truth+, which you access through your regular social media account, there is a competitive option to Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, and Hulu.  Once you pull up Truth+ on your television, it navigates through the channels just like Roku and Spectrum.  So this is a significant improvement for a social media platform that emerged essentially to give President Trump, sent into exile in the world, a voice to continue stating his opinions, and not to let him fall into the dust of history, as Rupert Murdoch indicated they would make him, which was a non-person.  Trump, out of necessity, has become the next entertainment mogul, and that is what it has taken to preserve the concept of free speech, even as we saw from the world just how dangerous it was to have all entertainment controlled by a radical leftist few.  Truth Social, through market capitalism, has emerged as a surprising frontrunner, and the world is changing dramatically as a result.  The goal isn’t to tell people what to think, but to let market viability determine which ideas emerge, as the speech is truly free for the first time. People tend to gravitate to where they can most express themselves through entertainment consumption, making Truth Social more than just a social media platform that communicates President Trump’s opinions.  But an entertainment platform that can replace what we have known in the past with something much better.  And if you are thinking of joining the Patriot Package for yourself, you can’t go wrong.

The Radicalism of Stephen Colbert: Trying to kill off toxic masculinity as been very expensive and not worth it

There is a much deeper reason that the news about Stephen Colbert being taken off the air is such big news.  Or why ABC is re-thinking some of its daytime programming, such as The View.  There will be numerous television changes because many of these big production companies have been so committed to progressive causes that the financial impact of it is finally starting to catch up to them.  However, in everyday conversation, the real reasons for economic failures have been largely unexplored.  People know they are generally happy to hear that the Trump-hating Colbert is losing his late-night show, and that many of the other late-night hosts are in danger as well, because of the anti-Trump agenda.  Anti-Make America Great Again agenda points are not popular for good business.  And typically, CBS Studios, a division of Paramount Global, the parent company of CBS, would not hesitate to donate $40 million to progressive political causes.  Which is what they are saying the show is losing per year.  It’s not about the money; it’s about the viability of the position.  Losing that much money by putting Stephen Colbert on television every night to attempt to destroy the Trump agenda is more or less a financial contribution to their political platform.  The problem for them is that they spent all that money and committed so many resources to it, yet they were unable to move the political needle at all.  Trump did not end up in jail, or bankrupt as radical liberals had fantasized about.  Instead, six months into his re-elected term, he is doing great, and there are no signs of him slowing down.  And he’s more popular than ever, which is breaking the back of the production companies and their commitment to communism that dates back to the fifties and sixties. 

I know quite a bit about all this as I have been discussing it for years.  For many people, it has been hard to connect the dots.  However, I hosted a major radio show on this topic, specifically centered on the release of the Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens, where Disney killed the very popular character of Han Solo.  A friend of mine and I discussed the poor decision that Disney made in killing off the white hero Han Solo and replacing him with a DEI cast that nobody ever took to.  And now, ten years later, the things we said have turned out to be hauntingly accurate.  After that big, popular show, my friend received an offer to work at Disney for an excellent salary.  I always thought they did it to shut him up and get him off the air.  It is much easier to throw money at controversial voices to contain them somewhat.  My friend loved the Disney Company and hoped to improve it, so more power to him.  I told him there was no saving the company, but he had to try.  But the point of the matter is this: Disney didn’t need to kill off the original heroes of the Star Wars saga.  But they did it anyway, and they did it for purely political reasons.  That’s how radical the hatred in Hollywood is for the Make America Great Again movement, which was emerging openly as Disney was committing to these new Star Wars movies that had a DEI cast, and a killing off of the strongest character of them all, Han Solo, who was made popular by the very popular actor, Harrison Ford.

Now I’ve heard it all before.  People tell me that old Harrison Ford always wanted to kill off the character of Han Solo.  As an actor, he hears all the stories about toxic white masculinity, which he has made a lot of money over the years popularizing.  So, for him, to sacrifice one of his roles to the gods of progressivism is a logical choice.  And he has been saying for forty years that Han Solo should die in the Star Wars series.  However, George Lucas knew better, so they brought him back for The Return of the Jedi, and that character went on to become one of the biggest and most popular in the Star Wars brand.  If Han Solo is on the movie posters, people are excited for Star Wars and the toys that came from that series of movies.  But if the movie posters, as they turned out to be, were just diversity, equity, and inclusion characters, then the public was going to reject the offering.  And in that process, Disney killed the Star Wars brand forever.  I don’t think it will ever come back. The damage was so significant that they begged Harrison Ford to return and make an appearance in the last Star Wars movie, The Rise of Skywalker, but it was too late by then.  And Disney has not been making any more Star Wars movies because their DEI characters were being rejected left and right.  A similar controversy arose on The Mandalorian television show involving Gina Carano.  She turned out not to be a DEI hire, but a conservative fighter, and Disney tried to punish her for it, and it blew up in their faces in terrible ways.  We are seeing entertainment that is not intended to entertain, but rather to convey political messages through popular franchises, and it has turned out to be a disastrous business decision. 

So, the writing was already on the wall when Trump was re-elected, and Disney was already undergoing its assessment process.  They had to learn, as a large entertainment company, that their public would reject them if they did not produce content that they wanted.  Kathy Kennedy should have known better about the Han Solo character.  Her husband, Frank Marshell, should be able to help her understand it.  He produced all the Jurassic Park movies and was the German mechanic in the very popular Raiders of the Lost Ark movie, notably in the fight scene.  He’s not a progressive lunatic.  However, he and Kennedy are fans of Jimmy Buffett and music from that era, so they have a left-leaning side that certainly comes through in their movies.  Kathy, as a woman CEO, went completely DEI and began pushing for female directors and characters.  I mean, they killed off Han Solo, knowing he was the father figure of the series, and they gave his famous spaceship, the Millennium Falcon, to some girl that nobody knew, as if the public would just accept it.  And they never did.  And the franchise took a permanent hit that it will never recover from.  I tried to tell them.  My friend and I laid it all out on that now-famous radio show, so we know the Disney bigwigs heard it and offered us jobs afterwards.  I have had numerous companies offer me money to try to keep me quiet, essentially.  I don’t blame my friend for taking the money.  Many people do, and it can lead to a fulfilling life.  And that is essentially why nobody understands these kinds of things structurally.  But that’s what’s going on with Stephen Colbert, and many others that will follow.  The man-hating Hollywood has not been working, and if they want to survive at all, they will have to make adjustments because the consumer is the boss.  Not the studios, and they have had to learn some tough lessons, too late.  The ramifications of all those bad decisions are only now becoming well-known and prominent.

What Does Jumping the General Lee Say About Americans: Self government is more important than safety

It was exciting to watch the General Lee, the famous car from the television show, The Dukes of Hazzard, jump over and through the fountain in the middle of town in Somerset, Kentucky.  What makes people want to jump a perfectly good car in such an ostentatious way, essentially destroying it in the process?  I enjoyed the event at the end of June, 2025 quite a lot, but as I watched everything unfold, I had to ask, why?  Why any of it?  Why jump in a classic car that is essentially an antique in the middle of town, and why did everyone come out to watch it?  And how did the stuntman Raymond Kohn even manage to organize the event during the Somernites Cruise, where the car would be jumped and land on roads that everyone uses, scratching up the pavement?  There were so many unsafe elements to the jump.  Usually, they do these kinds of things at a racetrack or at fairgrounds.  But this was in the middle of a busy town.  And it’s not lost on us that only a few short years ago, Nikki Haley, as governor of South Carolina, was removing all traces of the Confederate Flag from government property.  General Lee, as a car, has a Confederate Flag painted on it, and many of the vehicles at the car show openly display Confederate Flag license plates and decals. Here was an event that the world was covering.  This was international news.  It was all very haphazard and reckless, but people loved it.  But why?  What is in human nature that makes us love such things, and this extends beyond political sentiment?  Reverence for the Confederate Flag means rebellion for many people.  I appreciate the Union Army’s efforts during the Civil War and have always been an anti-slavery person.   However, I understand the rebellion the Confederate Flag represents, and it serves as a warning to self-governed people not to overreach with too many rules and regulations.  If I had to sum up the effort, that’s what this car jump was all about.

It was pretty interesting leading up to the jump, as the car was parked on the ramp in town, allowing people to walk up and touch it.  They could feel the ramps.  Anybody could have sabotaged the event, but everything was pretty loose, even right up to the jump, where people lined the sides of the street.  A lot of things could have gone wrong, and at the end of the jump, the wrecked General Lee almost hit a cameraman.  However, nobody got too emotional about anything, and the whole town showed up to see the jump, with everyone having a really good time.  The stunt team performing in the show was the Northeast Ohio Dukes, and they put on these shows quite frequently.  However, this was different because it occurred in the middle of a functioning town, which could result in real damage and injury.  However, people felt they needed to do this stunt, disregarding caution, to perform it. Afterwards, the Northeast Ohio Dukes sold off pieces of the wreck to people who wanted a piece of history.  So what would make someone want a piece of the General Lee hanging in the garage?  Well, a lot of people did.  The entire event also had significant sponsorship from notable companies, including Coca-Cola, G&L Refrigeration, Citizens National Bank, and Don Franklin Dealerships.  Thirty-five thousand people showed up to pay $10 a ticket to watch history being made.  What was noticeable to me was that nobody seemed to care about woke politics.

When The Dukes of Hazzard television show aired every Friday night, people loved it.  In every episode, the Duke boys, who were always running away from the law, would jump the General Lee during one of the many car chases that occurred throughout the series.  I loved it; I had the high-flying General Lee on my school notebooks, on t-shirts. I had lots of toy cars that I would jump with myself.  I performed many stunts and would jump my bike over numerous dangerous obstacles.  It was all very exciting, and obviously, I am not the only one.  After all that we’ve been through as a culture, where the administrative state has tried to make us a more safe society, here we were in 2025, during the first year of the Trump presidency in his second term and a General Lee complete with an ostentatious Confederate Flag was jumping through a town fountain just like on the television show.  Hollywood has tried to recapture that magic in other kinds of shows, but people still love a 40-year-old show because of its lack of political correctness.  People do not want to live safe lives under the thumb of too much government regulation, and jumping a perfectly good car, and an expensive one such as the General Lee, destroying them each time they do it, is the sign of a very affluent society that can afford to do such things as an expression of personal sentiment. For many of the same reasons, we celebrate the 4th of July with fireworks.  At the core of our society is a need for rebellion and to throw caution to the wind, and the General Lee car from the television show has become a symbol of that in our culture. 

The jump itself was 150 feet high at a speed of 50 MPH, and with people lined up all along the street, a lot of things could have gone wrong.  However, having the event itself, with all the loose caution, was more important than safety, and that was what was important here.  And since that show was on television, there hasn’t been anything like it.  People still crave that kind of entertainment because there is an extreme need for danger in people’s lives.  They don’t want the safety of the administrative state.  They want to jump cars through fountains in the middle of town, crashing them on the other side, then buying pieces of the car as a trophy for their garage.  You wouldn’t see something like this, General Lee jumping in different places in the world, because it’s uniquely American. This is interesting, considering we are only five years out from when the World Health Organization tried to make a power move with COVID and shut down the entire world.  People played along for a little while, but slowly, a rebellious nature emerged, one that led to not wearing masks or getting vaccinated, undoing all the over-the-top regulations.  And here was a car with a Confederate Flag launching through the middle of town in ways that pushed safety to its limit, and people were pleased about it. What does that say about us?  We are a defiant people who intend to have self-government, and the Dukes of Hazzard television show is all about defying progressive attempts to turn America into something much less desirable.  And after all these years, with all the technological advancements we’ve experienced, the act of jumping a classic car through the middle of town with a dangerous stunt is still something most people enjoy.  And because they do, they won’t sign up for more centralized regulations coming from the United Nations any time soon.  People like danger and a car culture of excess.  So much so that they not only want to own cars like the General Lee, but they want to wreck them in an act of defiance whenever possible.  Because it’s in our nature to do so.

Vivek Ramaswamy’s Ohio Campaign for Governor is all About Family First: Getting rid of red tape in Liberty Township

Vivek Ramaswamy discussing taking the red tape out of a red state!

It was good to see Vivek Ramaswamy again.  Mark and Leslie Williams had a nice, private event for him to talk about the campaign status and the going-forward steps and probably the best thing I have heard in politics so far was what Vivek said about Ohio, that it was a deep red state, but that it would not be the state of red tape.  That his run for governor was committed to restoring Ohio to the nation’s greatest status in wealth generation among all the states.  And given his understanding of things and personality, I think it is very much possible.  The moment I found out that he was running for governor, I was excited about it.  And since he launched his campaign just a few months ago, he has turned his efforts into a nice running machine that will cascade into many exciting opportunities that many have never thought possible.  Vivek Ramaswamy understands, and as I have watched these GOP events develop over the years, there was something very different going on that was exciting —a festivity to it that was not politics as usual.  But before we get into all that, I have to say, Mark and Leslie did a great job with the event, including the fantastic food table set up with finger foods that they had in the middle of the gathering space, established for this meet and greet for Vivek.  I took a picture of what was left of it after a few hours, but it was quite something to see.  All the little things in the event were done with just a little extra flair that makes spending time with people on a Saturday night of political talk more enjoyable.  And once Vivek gave his speech, took pictures with people, and had to get on to the next thing, people stayed around talking and catching up because they didn’t want to leave such a wonderful occasion.

When this started it was quite an exhibition. It was a lot of food!

I was one of them, I was happy to see so many people I like to talk to all in the same place.  I enjoyed seeing most of Nancy Nix’s family there, mom, sister, aunts, grandchildren, her husband Bob, we all like each other naturally, and it was nice to catch up under those conditions.  Everyone knows I love Nancy Nix; she is one of the best for a reason, and a lot of it is that she has a nice and loving family, which is evident to everyone who can see.  I had just spent time with one of my favorite trustees, Todd Minniear, a few nights before.  With his wife Jamie, they are a couple of my absolute favorite people and they were there.  Thomas Hall and his family were there too.  His mom and dad are good, solid people, and if you haven’t noticed, there is a pattern to my accolades.  I often judge the value of people by the kind of families they come from and are creating for themselves, and for me, it was a great evening because I had a break from the broken dysfunction that often comes with associating with a lot of people from diverse backgrounds and social structures.  Here, almost everyone shared the same strong family values that I greatly appreciate, making it a great evening for me.  My wife doesn’t always get to come to all these events.  When we launched the campaign event for Vivek a few months prior, she had to miss it due to other family commitments that we had.  However, this time we were able to coordinate things in a way that allowed her to attend, and she enjoyed herself as well.

As usual, I always enjoy seeing George and Debbie Lang when they are in a place where things go as well as the Williams event allowed.  Where the accommodations are set up thoughtfully, so that people can easily discuss essential political matters.  As a critical Senator in Ohio, everyone wants to talk to George, so my time with him is often spent with me looming in the background to discuss as many important things as possible.  However, in a large group like that, it’s not easy to convey everything in brief statements, as time may not allow.  But when people wonder why I like George and Debbie so much, it’s that core value system again. They are a great family that really loves each other, and I value their sincerity, both with each other and with the world around them.  When people wonder why George Lang is good at his job, a common theme among those who have come out in early support of Vivek Ramaswamy for Governor of Ohio is that they see the state in the same way they see their families, with love and care.  And those are their primary political motivations.  No matter what personal success they have had in life, and I know that is the case with Mark and Leslie Williams too, who hosted the event, they want to put that same effort into making Ohio the top state in the country, and the world, for people to live in and raise good families.  If you are a family-first kind of person, knowing these kinds of people makes sense.  And I enjoyed myself for all those reasons.  One of the primary values that everyone I knew shared at this event was a love of family, and they all did just a little bit more than average to have good families. 

I enjoyed catching up with Darbi Boddy.  People have been wondering about her since her time as a Lakota school board member concluded in legal gymnastics.  People have asked me a lot why I like Darbi so much.  She is a good mom who talks to God frequently.  And since she left the Lakota school board, she has been hanging out with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago.  My wife noticed the pin she was wearing, and it was the same one that she had.  Let me say, Darbi is doing some great things that will manifest into goodness in a few years.  She is more deeply engaged in politics than ever, and I am very happy and proud of her for all that she has accomplished.  A common theme I have been discussing is that many people are unaware of Darby: she loves her family, and her involvement in politics is aimed at helping more families emerge in the world. I have a lot of respect for her hard work in this regard.  I like her kids, and I like her husband.  I want to see people like that succeed in the world.  I also enjoyed catching up with Bob Hutsenpiller.  We have a long history together. Similarly, he and his wife have been together for a long time, and his business has been a family affair throughout his long career.  And he’s just a good person trying to make things just a bit better in the world.  My joke with Bob is that he usually comes to these political events with work shoes because he is always on construction sites and has worked hard all the years I have known him.  And I would say that was the common theme among all the people I mentioned, and many more that there isn’t enough time to discuss.  But Vivek Ramaswamy makes it easy, just as President Trump has; these are all people who value family, and they are treating their state and country with the same love they pour into their families.  And it shows.  I met Vivek’s parents and got to know his wife at the event we had at CTL Aerospace, and I was happy that he recognized me out of all the people he has spoken to over the last several months.  But Vivek loves his kids.  He loves his wife.  He loves his parents.  And anyone who is that caring about the people in their life can show the same love to the state they are running.   And for me, that’s why I care so much about the people who were at that event.  The common theme was family first, even if nobody explicitly stated it.  You won’t catch any of the people I mentioned in some sex scandal where they are cheating on their spouses for power and prestige.  In most cases, everyone at that Vivek event already had power and prestige.  But what they were fighting for was something much more important: the power of family and the values that come from it, and carrying that attention over into political office, where it can genuinely make a significant impact.  And for me, being around such people is the best evening I could hope for.  I’m very much looking forward to Vivek Ramaswamy being the governor of Ohio.  That will be a good day!

There Won’t Be A War with Iran: They can’t afford it

There is all this talk about war with Iran, and America getting sucked into a prolonged war that will further entangle us into a mess of foreign commitment.  And there are all these war hawks like Lindsey Graham who want to go to war and bomb Iran into destruction.  And then there are people like Tucker Carlson who want complete involvement in Israel’s business, at all.  But everyone is missing the point, and Trump gets it.  You have to know your leverage points, and just to burst everyone’s bubble, Iran has already lost any potential war.  Iran is another hostile country, much like Antifa or Black Lives Matter in America, that is propped up with foreign money to create a grand distraction in the world.  Iran is the number 1 sponsor of terrorism in the world.  They don’t call it terrorism; however, they instead call it “revolutionary activities,” using almost the same kind of logic as we saw from the No Kings riots in America.  Iran exists to fight capitalism behind the façade of radical Islamic Fundamentalism.  And they can’t be reasoned with.  There is nothing about them that exists to protect the indigenous rights of the Palestinian people, and their continued protest to fight and destroy the creation of Israel as a country in the post-World War II environment.  Remember when the Obama administration left behind 1.7 billion dollars on an airport runway to Iran?  Or when Joe Biden lifted sanctions against Iran that were there from Trump’s first term?  Iran is not a country; it’s an Occupy Wall Street endeavor by radical leftist lunatics to destabilize the world.  Here are the facts: Iran can’t win a war with the United States.  I can’t win a war against a turtle.  And the threat of calling their bluff will shatter them completely. 

$1.7 billion might sound like a lot of money, but ground troops cost significantly more than that for just a few weeks of war.  And with all those missiles that they have launched against Israel, those are very expensive.  Additionally, Iran has its entire power grid concentrated in a small area, which would be very easy to target and disrupt.  Iran has an essentially oil-based economy, but not much else.  You don’t see people rushing out to buy the latest Iranian television or a new pair of jeans.  Iran could be brought to its knees without America firing a single shot, by just forcing the price of oil too low to compete with by exporting American oil.  And that is the way Trump is going to destroy hostile markets like Venezuela and Iran, through economics.  There is no reason to engage in a military conflict.  Iran doesn’t have the money to fight a war, and their entire infrastructure could be destroyed easily.  And with all the missiles they have launched recently toward Israel, they are going to run out of rockets fast.  And where are they going to get more of them?  Who is going to supply Iran with more weapons while the world’s eyes are on them?  Typically, Iran manufactures missiles on assembly lines, but it has to import the technology that powers them, which comes from North Korea and China.  Who thinks that either country is going to supply Iran with anything while Trump is in office?  They want to appease Trump, rather than risk being on the wrong side of the negotiating table with him.  Iran is currently on its own, and it can’t last long.  The Revolutionaries who run the country are not very deep in number, and the people in general in Iran do not support the current regime, so they only hold onto power with the threat of violence.  And they’ll lose that with any fight against Israel.

The Army Parade came at the perfect time, because it showed the world what the riches of capitalism can produce in such a display in the very nice city of Washington, D.C.  It took off the table any thought of engagement in a ground war with America, and the rest of the world doesn’t have the money to keep up.  The wars we have been dealing with were largely creations by centralized banking, not countries fighting over borders and ideology.  Trump knows he can crush Iran economically.  They are already reeling from the short conflict with Israel.  And when Iran falls, that will put pressure on Russia to settle things with Ukraine, which is also propped up entirely by globalist money.  And China is in a delicate situation with its economy.  They are propped up by globalism, and now that people are onto the scam, they are in a preventive defense mode.  They can’t afford any sustained competition along economic lines.  They’d love to attack Taiwan and take all its resources.  They’d love to do the same in Japan.  However, they dare not do it, because they would be economically destroyed.  So they have to play nice.  There won’t be any war.  And while many of these countries have their militaries, they can also hold parades.  They have to work a lot harder to have those militaries than America does.  In any engagement, they will run out of gas and come up short on missiles really fast.  But America can produce weapons like candy.  And when it was put on display, as it was at the Army Parade, it was disheartening to those in the world who want to intimidate by puffing up their feathers, only for everyone to learn that it was just a skinny, weak bird in the middle.

Iran is going to fall, and they should.  They are evil.  And once they do, there won’t be any place left in the world for all these terrorist organizations to hide behind.  If you take out the number one sponsor of terrorism, a world with a lot less terrorism would be a good one.  And when you look around at the hostile places of the world, who are just as close to falling as Iran currently is, they can’t hang onto power unless people are scared of them.  China is at risk of losing Hong Kong, for instance.  If Iran falls apart, the rest of them will likely follow suit.  And Trump, or America, doesn’t have to do much of anything for it to happen.  We certainly don’t need to send troops into Israel.  I love Israel, and I think they deserve revenge for what happened at that music festival.  A lot of people were killed and tortured who didn’t deserve it, and what was done to them, with Iran backing the activity in the background, was terrible.  But forget about this idea of ground engagement.  Those are not the fights we are fighting anymore.  When Iran falls, the Ukraine War will likely end shortly thereafter, due to the resulting pressure.  And China will struggle to maintain its current economic strength because it needs American markets to sell its products to.  They are dependent on America for their power, which can be turned off quickly.  And ruthlessly.  Which is what Trump will do to Iran, and once that vulnerability is exposed, all the other dominoes in the world fall too.  Therefore, there will be no military engagement.  Iran has already lost, and I believe they are aware of it.  It’s just taking the media a while to figure it out, because they need the subject matter.  However, the war with Iran never even began.  And Israel will easily triumph over their enemies with the power of economics.  Not missiles.

Mexico is a Dump: Where is the arrest of the killer of Valeria Marquez

So, where are the arrests? The killer showed his face on the livestream on TikTok when he killed the 23-year-old Mexican beauty influencer on May 13th, 2025.  The Mexican government promised justice, so where is it?  With all the face recognition software there is in the world, why haven’t they gone to his home and arrested him spectacularly for such a horrendous crime?  Because they can’t, because the drug cartels run Mexico and the token government there, just like globalists were trying to do to the United States, won’t allow it.  In Mexico, it’s a dump, and the government facilitates that kind of violence.  Valeria Marquez was trying to escape her drug cartel boyfriend, be a good girl, and turn her life around as a social media beauty consultant.  And when her old boyfriend saw that men were sending her gifts because she was very popular and had quite a large audience, he decided to send a hit man into the salon, right in front of everyone, and while the livestream was running, assassinate her while she clutched a cute little stuffed animal.  And in those moments where her life was stolen from her, she looked like a little girl who, just ten years prior, would have been a little girl thrilled to get such a stuffed animal from a trusted adult.  But she was brutally murdered because she wanted independence from a personal tyrant, and it has turned out to be a terrible story.  But you know what is most sad about it?  You would have never heard about this story if she weren’t a popular social media star.   Because they happen all the time, and in Mexico, they happen every few minutes.  Mexico is a dump, and the criminal elements who run these governments in the world want to keep it that way, because it gives them power over the degradation.

Violence in Mexico is so bad that the other day I saw a Family Guy episode where Peter Griffin made a joke as his head had been cut off and stuck on a pike, bleeding profusely.  And he said, “I took one step away from the resort,” meaning that’s how it is in Mexico.  The drug cartels leave the resorts alone most of the time to give the illusion that things are safe enough to have a tourist economy.  But if you step out of the lines they give you, it’s anything goes, and tourists end up dead all the time.  But more than that, young women like Valeria Marquez know they have no choice.  Once they hit puberty, if somebody sees them and they look reasonably attractive, the cartels will take them away from their families, and there isn’t much they can do about it.  When people wonder why she was dating a gang banger, she had no choice.  If she wanted to live, she had to play the game; her family could do nothing about it.  If you have a pretty daughter, in places in the world where crime rules, which is most places, the world will take her and use her until they are done with her.  And at that point, they might let her return to an everyday life.  But in the case of Valeria Marquez, she was just too pretty.  At 23 years old, her shelf life for sexual exploitation was expiring.  It’s the young girls that these drug dealers want, and at that point, they are starting to get old.  So she tried to turn her life around with a social media account that took off, and hoped that the high profile would save her.  But her ex-boyfriend figured if he couldn’t have her, nobody else would, so he had her killed.

The problem in Mexico is so bad that not even the latest Rambo movie dared to deal with the situation as we needed to.  In the last Rambo movie with Sylvester Stallone, even the famous movie star bent the knee to the cartels’ power.  Otherwise, Mexico wouldn’t have considered allowing that production company to film there.  The Mexican government pretends that it wants to put an end to cartel violence when, in truth, it wants the world to know just how bad it is so that it will be afraid and be very compliant.  Rambo in the movie I’m talking about, Last Stand, went to Mexico to save a young girl, much like Valeria Marquez, from the cartels, and he ended up getting beaten up pretty bad, which is not the way the Rambo movies were supposed to go.  Rambo, in true American fashion, should have gone to the stronghold of the cartel members and killed every last one with a spectacular gunfight.  But instead, he had to barely escape Mexico with his life to retreat to his home in America, where the cartel came to kill him on his home turf, to show the power and control they have even in America.  And Rambo managed to live as they destroyed his home.  But the whole movie was flat because it failed to solve the problem.  What the movie did show accurately, even if it’s really what the Mexican government wanted out of the deal, was to show how the grooming process works for young women, and what the substructure of the organized crime was really like.  And not even John Rambo was strong enough to confront it.

The power of these drug cartels even extends into our Supreme Court, where they have refused to get behind Trump’s war against the cartels, because there is real fear that some hit man will come to their homes and kill them, just as they did Valeria Marquez.  And that’s the point.  Not everyone has the kind of security that President Trump has, and they don’t want to be killed for fighting back against the drug cartels.  These criminals want to make a product that poisons its targets, and we are supposed to let them do it, which is what the Supreme Court decided in its attempt to stop Trump from deporting criminal thugs.  The people Trump has been deporting were the kind of people who killed Valeria Marquez.  And they terrorize the world, especially in socialist countries like Mexico, where the government exists to facilitate organized crime.  There is no concept of private property, so there is no reason to defend it, even if it’s a daughter.  If you have a pretty daughter, you aren’t allowed to have a gun to protect her from criminal thugs.  Instead, you are supposed to surrender her over to them and let them have their way.  And if you don’t, you will be killed too.  It’s so common that it’s even joked about on the popular show, Family Guy.  It’s not even a secret; everyone is in on it.  And the bad guys in the world, many who find themselves in government and getting kickbacks from allowing the crime to occur, facilitate the violence to keep the easy money coming, because they are too lazy and stupid otherwise to earn an honest living.  That is the truth of Mexico.  They don’t want to catch the killer of Valeria Marquez because they want the fear of such killings to keep people under their power and dependent on the government for their safety, which has only perpetuated the problem into the mess we see now.  There are a lot of young women like Valeria Marquez.  And there aren’t enough good people in the world to save them.  And that is a shame.

Jim Comey Needs to be in Jail: Trying to intimidate the Supreme Court, and others to outlast Trump’s administration

Jim Comey knew what he was doing when playing with seashells on a beach and took a picture of an arrangement he made for his Instagram account.  That he denied he didn’t know what “8647” meant shows now, in hindsight, what a pervasive liar he has been on everything.  This is something that Democrats have been doing for a while to send a signal out to their deranged base of lunatics to do something stupid with a dog whistle meant for them.  Jim Comey was calling for the removal, by the understood means of assassination, by using the number “86” and putting it on his social media to connect with people who would do just that.  And by itself, it’s a serious matter.  But Jim Comey is on the outside now because he actively tried to remove Trump himself with all kinds of illegal activity, making up dossiers and passing them off as fact, faking FISA warrants, lying to congress, lying to the President and voters, Jim Comey, as I told CNN long ago, was a no good loser who was corrupt and took the FBI down a dark path for which it will never recover.  And given his history, and the known assassinations that were already attempted against Trump, the context of this recent case of Comey getting caught doing it is unforgivable, and he should be in jail for his misdeed.  It doesn’t matter that the FBI interviewed him and his intentions. Comey is a known, professional liar, and he knowingly put up a mark on his social media account as the former Director of the FBI, and the consequences for that action should be jail time at a minimum.  His intent is well chronicled and can be supported in a court of law beyond a reasonable doubt. 

But there is a bigger problem looming in the background, and this is about the Supreme Court ruling against Trump’s Article II powers to deport criminal thugs and cartel members operating in the United States.  On the same day we learned about Comey’s activism, we also learned that the Supreme Court, including all of Trump’s picks, went against him on deporting the illegal alien gang members, that have been hotly debated.  Seeing the Supreme Court punt with a 7-2 decision surprised everyone.  Well, I’m not surprised.  I was just at the Supreme Court recently, and know the vibe there firsthand.  There is a lot of pressure on them to distance themselves from the Trump administration because, after all, the polite society types know that Trump is temporary, and judges tend to wait for a lifetime appointment.  They will be around long after Trump is gone, so the assumption goes, and what the Supreme Court doesn’t want are people like James Comey, who are all over the intelligence community, putting out “86” hits on them to be performed by some crazy hitman lunatic driving by on a scooter outside their home and erasing them from existence while they are getting their mail.  Because that’s what’s bad about this hit request from Comey, is that he knows as an insider, that baked into his actions is an unprovably assumption about an underbelly of criminal conduct that works continuously in the background and turns the timid types, like judges on the Supreme Court into cowards worried about their future as the system itself will dispose of them at their first chance.  In this way, Comey commanded from his former title, showing that he’s like a mob boss still calling the shots from jail.  Members of the Supreme Court are afraid of these people for good reasons. 

Obama was the autopen

Trump’s picks are going out of their way to show they are independent of the President because the pressure on them is intense.  And when Comey put that message on his Instagram account, he didn’t mean it for Trump.  He meant it for the people who work for Trump and around him, as a rallying cry to resist him.  He will be gone and won’t be able to protect them at some point.  So they better get with the program.  We’ve seen Chuck Schumer beg a mob of malcontents to attack members of the Supreme Court for their previous rulings, and we’ve seen other assassination attempts against Trump where the FBI practically left the door open for the killers to kill.  This isn’t an accident; it’s a method of behavior that Democrats are counting on.  And they are bold about it.  And based on Comey’s past behavior, we were aware that he openly worked against the taxpayer selection of a representative in the White House; there is no way to deny what Comey was up to.  He and “they,” the Democrat mob who have found themselves out of power, are showing emotional leverage of the Supreme Court through well-planted acts of potential violence to steer them away from hard rulings and to punt this deportation case back down to the 5th circuit to stall Trump’s efforts, which won’t work in the end.  There are other ways to skin this cat.  However, the Supreme Court invalidated itself in the process because of the apparent threats from the hard left, of which Comey is a part.  There are a lot of his type in the law and order community at all levels, and they are arrogant because they think the rest of everybody is too stupid to know what they are up to.  Well, people see it, and they know what was going on in this case, and nobody believes what he’s saying.  It was this same Comey FBI that hid the Anthony Weiner laptop, whose wife is the new woman for little Alex Soros, and the Hunter Biden laptop, which showed all kinds of legal infractions.  And did not move to put Hillary Clinton in jail for her email scandal, but instead ran cover for her, because they were trying to keep Trump out of office. 

When you have people like Comey in the intelligence agencies, even when Trump has picked better people to run the Department of Justice now than we had, you still have these people on the payroll, and they are just holding their nose and waiting for Trump to be out of office once more.  And messages like Comey’s seashells are obvious intimidation tactics to show the masses that the mob is really in charge, and even members of the former administrations are always just a call away.  That insurrection through mob rule still dominates this material world.  Isn’t that the message of Hiram Abiff?  What say you, Master Masons?  The mob kills, and we must surrender this world and keep our eyes on the next.  So that cowards can justify turning their cheek away from evil and not face it, even when it presents itself on a beach by the former Director of the FBI.  And when caught, he lied and said it didn’t mean what we all know it meant.  Jim Comey is a dirty cop who wants crime to exist so that Democrats can stay in power.  And they want to tie up the Supreme Court so that violence can overthrow the order of a Trump administration before it can do all the great things promised during the 2024 campaign.  These are not lovers of America; they want to overthrow it, and their best weapon of choice is to inspire derelicts to action, which was what Jim Comey intended.  He needs to be put in jail and made an example of.

A Wonderful Expereince: Playing the new Indiana Jones game on PS5

I wasn’t going to play the new Indiana Jones game on PlayStation 5, but after much encouragement from my wife, I did, and I’m glad.  Indiana Jones and the Great Circle was an excellent experience with a great story, and was a throwback to the kind of entertainment I think we need a lot more of.  I was skeptical of Lucasfilm doing anything with Indiana Jones these days under the ownership of Disney.  I like the character and the kind of science spawned from those movies over the years.  But I wasn’t sure if they could pull off a good story without George Lucas.  But my wife has been pressing me to play more video games with the grandchildren, because that’s what they like to do.  But my life is so busy, I don’t have time to hang out online like most video games require, with a very social experience.  These days, video games are a way for kids to interact socially.  Games like Fortnite and Call of Duty put you in contact with thousands of people daily.  Kids who play these games for hours will interact with thousands of people in real time, so video game playing these days is a very social experience, and I’m not at all crazy about that.  I talk to way too many people throughout the week to want to spend my downtime talking and playing with more people.  So I haven’t been playing video games very much, and my wife thinks I need to do more for stress management.   So I listened to her, wives can be good for many things, and when the new Indiana Jones game came out in April of 2025 on the PS5 console, I thought I’d try it. 

Because I’m a fan of the character and raised my kids on the optimism of those movies, as a baseline for other things, I bought the Collector’s Edition of the game, which came with all kinds of neat stuff.  But once I started playing the game, I enjoyed the story as it takes you through the character of Indiana Jones to Peru, the Vatican, Giza, the Himalayas, Thailand, Shanghai, and Iraq.  It’s not an online game, so you can play it without interacting with others and have a nice story-driven experience.  And much to my surprise, this game was very much in line with the Indiana Jones movies, and it had a tone similar to the most recent one, the Dial of Destiny.  So it was true to the original character and didn’t have the woke stuff, which is such a problem these days.  There were a few things, but not enough to tarnish the game.  It was a good adventure story that was much longer than a typical movie.  I spent 60 hours playing the game, with about 12 hours of that time just doing the story itself, so it turned out to be a long movie experience that took place for me during April 2025, which was a good break from all the other things I typically do.  And it was good for the grandkids to see me doing something besides reading books, as I’ve said before, I read 4 to 5 books a week.  Some weeks, more than that, so I cover a lot of content that is very personal.  You can’t share the content you read with your family very well because reading is such a private thing.  But ironically, there is a scholarly element to this Indiana Jones game that was very refreshing.  

The game itself is about the “giant” controversy, which I think is the most important in the world right now, the idea that an ancient race of giants who lived before Noah’s flood inhabited the earth and had a very advanced culture.  I read a lot about this evidence, and it was a surprise that the modern debate drove the game’s plot.  We live in a time when people ask tough questions, and authority figures in authority positions have been caught lying to us, right to our faces.  At the center of this Indiana Jones story are many problems that played out during the Second World War.  Playing the Indiana Jones character you get to deal with actual historic characters such as Bonito Mussolini and the obsession with the occult that the Nazis were investing in and when you put the biblical narrative of the Fallen Angels of God, the Nephilim at the heart of a massive modern conspiracy theory, you have all the contents of a fascinating story, and it was.  Because I read so much about many different topics, the story of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle felt like it was produced and made just for me, including all the items that came with the Collector’s Edition.  I spend a lot of time thinking about these things through books and online lectures.  So it was a pleasure to play a video game about that kind of storyline.  And to have the material compelling, educational, and entertaining.  The game makers really loved the story, and it showed.

They first announced this game in 2020 during the COVID-19 crisis.  I wanted to like the news, but I was so down on Disney and Lucasfilm for what they had done to Star Wars that I would have rather they just left Indiana Jones alone.  As a literary character in our culture, Indiana Jones does so many good things that I figured Disney would only damage that character, as they have so many other things they’ve mishandled.  For instance, the pressure seen on a recent Joe Rogan Podcast with the Egyptologist Dr. Zahi Hawass probably wouldn’t have happened without an Indiana Jones character in popular, mainstream literature and filmmaking laying the foundation to apply the pressure.  So many people have been inspired by the character that they have correctly challenged established norms in a very healthy, academic way.  And when a game like this comes out and a mainstream audience plays it in such a mass way, good things tend to happen, and you see that with the questioning of independent investigators, questioning the institutional narrative of things to evoke the truth, which is what we should all be concerned about.  Stories like this light intellectual fires and usually have great significance for those who experience them.  So a game format, as opposed to a movie or a book, was very appropriate.  And I had a lot of fun with the game.  I’m glad I listened to my wife.  I like playing video games, but don’t think I’ll play them often.  But I am so happy to have taken the time to play this one, and it ended up being a positive thing for my entire family.  And I wish it could have gone on forever in many ways.  But playing through the whole story was an enjoyable experience that was a nice break from my day-to-day.  And I look forward to similar experiences to come along that kind of storytelling frontier.

A Teacher of the Year Getting 30 Years in Jail: Another cover-up case at Lakota Schools

It should be shocking, but it isn’t, as news of the San Diego Teacher of the Year Jacqueline Ma pleading guilty to sexually grooming two of her students, one 11 and the other 12 for an extended period, that Lakota schools had another incident, which was quietly wiped away from the news cycle.  Where is Karin Johnson from Channel 5?  And with that, San Diego teacher, what gave her away as a young 36-year-old prototype that was given their highest honor?  She was the kind of teacher they wanted to say to the world that she was the best, and that parents could feel safe sending their kids to her with all their trust.  Was it the nose rings?  At Lakota, about a month before Jacqueline Ma cried like a baby in front of the judge, throwing all her guilt on the table, Lakota schools had plain clothed police officers escorting out a male teacher from the East Freshman building because the mother of a young girl caught the guy watching porn with her daughter.  And previously, that same teacher had a series of complaints trying to get into the girls’ locker room, to the point that they had to move him somewhere else once people knew what he was up to.  But to keep the story out of the news and to protect the school’s image, especially with this recent lawsuit in Columbus, where Lakota, along with 300 other plaintiffs who have joined the EdChoice lawsuit, want to pretend that they are something they aren’t.  So they can keep the trust of tax-paying parents, instead of admitting what they really are, a breeding ground for Democrat politics with serious sexual deviancy issues.  The media never reports on the issue until there is a confession, which is rare.  And before action is ever taken, as in the case of the Lakota case and the San Diego case, it takes a nosy parent to ask questions and insist on an investigation, which then turns up diabolical behavior discovered too late.

It should be evident by now what is going on; these public schools only care about their reputations so they can continue to steal money from taxpayers to fund their monstrous meat factories of sexual molestation and disastrous grooming of innocent kids.  These cases are so common that, statistically speaking, if you look at those who aren’t getting caught, it’s an astonishingly high number, so much so that all students would be able to report some creepy teacher they have to interact with who has boundary problems.  The schools cannot detect it through their teacher union contracts because they don’t ask for or tell about concealment policies.  Jacqueline Ma was given everything and had an incredibly bright future if only she could keep her shirt on.  Yet she had such bad judgment that she was taking her clothes off in class to show the young boys her boobies and was sending them text messages with all kinds of incriminating content because when people, any people, get into authority positions, it is very difficult not to abuse that relationship.  Obviously, for teachers of the year like Jacqueline Ma, it was tough to keep her clothes on, and her mind out of the gutter when she had a class full of students under her power, not to abuse it.  And back to the EdChoice case in Ohio, or Trump’s position to strengthen School Choice and eliminate centralized education methods, favoring more competitive approaches, it’s because of these stories that no public schools in the country can say that they are efficiently teaching children. Instead, they are abusing them sexually and ruining them for the rest of their lives, in many cases. 

I pick on Karin Johnson because I have a history with her.  She’s always there too late and supports the public school experience with blinders on.  I know her from my WLW days, when she was friends with Scott Sloan, the radio host.  I talked a lot about public school problems on his show until Scott got in trouble with his wife, a real estate agent, and those segments on a big radio station were what she thought was damaging to the real estate value of the school districts where she was selling.  So things went south, and Karin Johnson showed herself as a former cheerleader using the news as a pro-school advocate.  Only when a story completely collapses does she do a story on these dangerous public schools.  Instead of digging up the problems, they turn their attention to the people trying to bring all this to the surface, to protect the public schools for many of the reasons that were behind WLW radio getting out of that business.  The advertisers want to think well of these schools, whether they are good or not.  And now people hear too many of these stories that they want to pull their kids out of the schools and send them somewhere private.  And they want choices in education because the public option is far from reform-worthy.  Many people who have pushed these terrible stories under the radar want the public option to work for one reason or another, psychological or financial, and it’s hard for them to face the facts.  However, parents are sick of having to do all the work, and if it were not for them, the school would never admit to these transgressions.  And everything would continue to be swept under the rug.

It’s a problem in every workplace: the abuse of power by those who have authority over others, whether students or employees.  You cannot have a system of efficient teaching when a school system in San Diego gives a teacher like Jacqueline Ma a Teacher of the Year award, because they are measuring all the wrong values.  I would have told them that the nose ring should have been a disqualifying attribute.  You can’t be Teacher of the Year with a nose ring.  And if you take your clothes off in front of your students and send them pictures of you in sexual conditions, you can’t work as an authority figure in the school.  Or like in Lakota, where these cases are pretty much daily, if you watch porn with your students, grooming them, you are fired.  And if this young girl’s mom didn’t stick her nose into the situation, that teacher would still be employed, even though the other teachers know all about the problems.  They don’t say anything because they care more about the school’s reputation.  Not in actually being good and performing well.  The public school experience is inefficient, expensive, and corrosive because it has bad teachers instructing students in vulnerable positions, doing all the wrong things.  And it’s out of control because the checks on that power are more interested in keeping the stories from the public to hide it, because of some financial or emotional interest, that they have made the problem far worse.  It’s so bad that whistleblowers, like that girl’s mom at Lakota, are viewed as troublemakers, instead of the teachers caught doing the dirty deeds.  The assumption from the public school supporters is that we should all keep in mind the greater good of public education, even if that good is only in bad teachers continuing to get a paycheck stolen from property owners for a service that is horrible in general to an entire generation of kids.  And when it comes down to it, nobody but a few parents who care are looking out for the kids.  Not the news, not our politicians, not our business world, nobody.  Not even our churches.  Nobody cares because the evil under the rug is so vast and horrible that people would rather not find out about it until some tenacious parent catches someone guilty, and they cry like a baby, hoping to get a plea deal to cut 30 years of jail down to a lesser sentence.  By that time, their lives are already ruined.
