How Corruption Begins: When the power of government is used for personal gain

Everyone has different ideas about corruption, its appearance, how it was born, and the cost of it to civilization.  But I did get a clear view of it recently while at an event involving Don Jr. at Lori’s Roadhouse for a campaign event with Bernie Moreno, supporting him for senate.  At those kinds of positive events, there are always political people who show up, and as I arrived, I ran into Darbi Boddy, who wanted to attend and show support for the people there.  But, as this is a story that has all kinds of bad elements to it, Isaac Adi, the other school board member that I had been involved with to put conservatives on the board at Lakota schools; there has been a restraining order put in place keeping Darbi from being 500 feet from Isaac, essentially preventing her from attending school board meetings, because a bunch of political people want to get rid of Darbi off the school board and they are using Isaac to challenge her in court over a dispute the two of them have had where he claimed he was concerned for his safety.  This has resulted in Darbi losing her CCW and being unable to attend any event where Isaac was also present.  So when Isaac shows up at some political event that Darbi is at, she has to get up and leave, by the court order.  It’s an entirely ridiculous notion that a woman the size of Darbi was going to be some physical threat to Isaac Adi, who is a reasonably good-sized person, but that is what happens when your courts are corrupt and politics takes over logic.  As it stood, Darbi wanted to see Bernie Moreno, so I met her in the parking lot and scouted out the venue to make sure Isaac wasn’t there, which he wasn’t, so she entered and talked to people as she normally would.

About twenty minutes later, Isaac arrived, and as I watched him enter the building, I saw him walking in a way I had not seen before.  I’ve known him for a while and tried to help Isaac on several occasions, so I came to know him as a compassionate, nice Christian man.  This person he has become during his first two years on the school board was surprising to me.  I was most disappointed in him when he joined the labor union in laughing at my name when it was brought up in a school board meeting, as he joined the crowd in a mob-like free-for-all.  The criticism didn’t bother me; I expected that.  But that he played a part in it bothered me because I thought he was a better person than that and would not participate in those kinds of things.  But it wouldn’t be the first time someone like this let me down.  So I took note of it and moved on.  I have talked to Isaac occasionally, but I gave up on him over a year ago as he was politically useless.  It was an experiment that was tried, but when Lynda O’Connor went off-script, Isaac’s political future was tossed out the window.  So any interaction I had with him was minimal.  I had not seen enough of him to reveal the person he had become since he got caught up in this lawyer scam against Darbi, and the power of the courts had gone to his head in genuinely destructive ways.  He entered the building to sign in like Connor McGregor entering an MMA fight; he was slinging his arms out, counterbalancing his large belly in a very theatrical way, which was interesting.

Upon seeing this, I went to find Darbi to tell her that Isaac had arrived.  She immediately gathered her things to leave.  I offered to give her my hat and jacket so she could sit on the opposite side of the room, far away from Isaac, and attend the political rally anyway.  Nobody would have known the two of them were even close.  She declined the offer and said she had to honor the court order, so she left.  The whole thing was ridiculous; this court order put upon her for purely political reasons was taking away her liberty senselessly, and people weren’t doing anything about it to defend her, and all that power that Isaac suddenly had over her had gone to his head.  And he was enjoying that power way too much.  For something that was legally questionable, to begin with, it now was a power that a person like Isaac had over people in his community, a political rival, that was the most concerning.  And since I had not interacted with him much over the last few years, the corruption was evident.  What he was now was built by the corruption of politics and was a good lesson of everything that can go wrong and often does.  I knew him when the effort at elected office was full of good intentions, and he was promising.  And I can think of hundreds of people I have known, just like Isaac, who all started the same way.  But thousands of compromises later, and their shelf life near expiration, most of them fail and become corrupt to some level or another, and it was shocking to see how far Isaac had fallen in such a short time. 

When people stop doing what they know to be right or even think to be correct and serve institutional concerns, the process of corruption begins.  Then, corruption takes root when people like Isaac learn the kind of power they can have over other people given to them by the power of politics.  Soon after, they become one of the many who learn that institutional power compensates people who lack private power, so they seek the power of government to do what they lack the courage to do themselves.  And that is clearly what happened with Darbi and Isaac on the Lakota school board.  He lacked personal courage and was quickly swept away by the corrosive forces that enjoy making vast amounts of money off an institution that collects taxes from the public and distributes it for power, using children to extort the villainy.  And once he learned that he could have a lot of power from appeasing the institution over his values and peer groups, he knew what that power could give him.  In this case, he was able to meet celebrity political figures, and he could force Darbi to leave and deny her the same enjoyment through the power of the courts, which was given to him for other reasons, all corrupt in their own way.  We say corrupt because the relationship intends to abuse government power for personal gain.  Isaac might be a pawn in that game, but the seduction of the abuse of it was something he was enjoying, which encouraged more of the same behavior.  When the law is used to support personal power and punish other people who challenge that power, it is corrupt.  And when you look at the many millions of other such cases nationwide for many of the same reasons, you can see how our political landscape has become so corrupted.  The temptations to fall to corruption are too much for most people, and that is the case with the Lakota school board and the reason that Darbi Boddy had to leave that event.  Not because it was the right thing to do, but because political power had been abused to give power to private people they otherwise would have never had, if not for the power that government offers people willing to abuse it.

If you Vote for the Fairfield School Levy, You’re Stupid: What really causes communities to fail

I’ve said it for years, and it’s just as relevant today as it ever was, perhaps more so.  If you vote for a school levy, you’re stupid.  That’s what Darryl Parks and I always said on WLW radio when I was a frequent guest.  Many of our old interviews are still on my YouTube site, where we talked about why in a thousand different ways.  When he was the program director for Clear Channel Radio, we spent many hours discussing what had come true in public education today, well before anybody else realized it, and nobody can’t say that they weren’t told.  It was just an inconvenient truth that nobody wanted to admit to.  When they thought of public school, they thought about school jackets, class rings, homecoming dances, and the social aspects of being around other kids.  But public school designed by socialists, Marxists, and outright communists under John Dewey was never intended to teach anybody anything useful.  It was always about social controls that would last the duration of people’s lives with liberalized sentiment and submission to authority, which served the notion of big centralized governments.  And the entire system has collapsed on itself.  Finally, people have admitted that sending their kids to public schools was something they’d instead not do if they could get away with it. Suppose they could afford a private school or some other alternative.  And that is the state now where there are massive waiting lists for alternative schools to the government school option at the center of everyone’s community.  It’s taken many years, and COVID was the final straw, but people have finally admitted that the public school option is one they’d love to get away from for the benefit of their children.  Based on what we know now, if you are choosing to send your kid to public school, it’s more for your convenience than that you love them.  Nobody would choose to send a kid to a public school and, in the same sentence, mean it when you said to them, “I love you.”  Those things do not go together.

And so it goes; knowing all that, my wife and I were shopping at Bridgewater Falls in Fairfield, and we noticed all the yard signs advocating for a new tax levy for Fairfield Schools.  Fairfield is a school district neighboring Lakota, where I live, and they have been flirting with a new levy in Lakota for several years.  Public schools were designed to burden a community, so everyone has to go through a kind of divorce with their government schools where property values are perceived to be directly connected.  For years, it has been thought that people move into or out of a community based on the quality of the schools.  That’s what real estate people will tell you anyway, but that has, too, been a lazy way to manage school districts.  Government schools that are controlled by radical leftist teacher unions with consistently high wage rates in mind have no means to generate more money to pay their staff but ever-increasing burdens on their property taxes.  So the game continued; home values would increase, making more taxable revenue available for the government schools to confiscate.  That money is then used to program the next generation of children into the ways of Democrat politics, anti-God sentiments, transgender bathrooms, and racial politics, making for much of their youth, future Democrat voters.  Public schools are essentially teaching anti-family and a replacement of domestic concerns with obedience to centralized government. 

So the longer a community survives this process, the more burden and expensive those government schools become before there is a collapse, and the following community with the next shiny thing becomes the new destination, leaving the old community behind and used up.  That has been the story of several communities around Butler County, especially Fairfield, where I have much experience.  My wife and I were married and went to church there for many years when it was a destination community for many people all over the country.  I have watched this government school game for a long time, and behind it all is the communist intention to attack private ownership.  We are seeing this trend in Liberty Township, within the Lakota district now, where apartments and lower-cost living seek to attract lower-income people who don’t own so much private property.  It’s not a massive conspiracy; I know all the trustees involved.  They are nice enough guys.  But it’s in the handbook of community development, written by the same dumb people from the United Nations who designed these horrible public schools.  What could go wrong with a community entirely of apartments and people who vote but don’t own property?  Then, people who own property are squeezed out of their homes with high taxes, and before you know it, the tax rates are too high and unmanageable, and people move away once their children grow up and start lives of their own somewhere else.  In the background of all these apartments and condos is the hope that the children will stay in the community when they grow up if only affordable options exist.  But what you end up with is Democrat voters until they grow up and take on more responsibility by starting a family of their own.  So they vote for school levies, but their landlords end up having to pay the taxes, and the schools achieve one of Karl Marx’s goals: the destruction of all private property.  We have seen this cycle everywhere, and Fairfield has suffered from it.  Most of their best companies picked up and left because the taxes were too high, the same story that could be told in every community around Butler County, Ohio, for the last four or five decades.  The Lakota schools are watching if any of these levies pass so they can try independently for their own.  We have managed to keep the taxes low in Lakota because plenty of people have a hostile reaction to the prospect of higher property taxes.  However, the system was built to fail in every way, providing a tempting lure to busy parents, free babysitting while they work, and dual income lives to pay for all this mess. 

However, changes are coming with another Trump administration; serious reforms to public education will happen by eliminating the Department of Education, which should have occurred during the Reagan administration.  But the communists fought to prevent it with the standard fear tactics, which Reagan listened to.  And so we have had this uncompetitive socialist model ever since, and Trump is poised to change it.  And to that point, the most apparent change will be that any federal dollars will follow the child, not the zip code.  That will mean that Fairfield, Lakota, Mason, and several other government schools along the outer loop of I-275 will have to fight to have children in their schools to access the funds that come with them.  And their cost structure will be challenged severely, which would be great.  Many teachers at Lakota schools make over six figures, which is a big part of their quarter of a billion-dollar yearly budget. If you have attended a school event anywhere lately, you will see many of these teachers can afford to miss a sandwich or two.  They are not specimens of excellent health, let’s just put it nicely.  The entire system is poised to fail, whether levies are approved or not.  And knowing all that, if you vote for a school levy, as I have said for several decades, you are stupid.  It’s silly to vote for any public school for more money that they are just going to waste on radical Democrat teachers.  And until we change that, it’s stupid to give them even a penny more.

Vote for Diane Mullins in the 47th District in Ohio: She has the Republican Party endorsement and she’s a very respected church pastor

I am thrilled to see Rev Diane Mullins running against Sara Carruthers for the 47th Representative seat in Ohio.  Sara has shown herself to be the Nikki Haley of the Butler County Republican Party, disparaging MAGA Republicans as if she hoped that party politics would swing back to the globalist brand that has brought so much trouble to the world of politics.  The Central Committee criticized Sara Carruthers because she broke caucus with House Republicans last year and joined Democrats to elect a moderate Speaker.  She revealed herself as one of “the Blue 22” who joined Democrats to prevent the Ohio House from the type of reforms that were needed to align with an America First platform.  And after Lynda O’Connor was voted out of the Lakota School Board, a lot of soul-searching had to be done in Butler County politics.  It can be a tough job trying to meet the needs of donors who want entirely different things from politicians than voters do, but Sara had crossed the line and paid for it when it came time to issue party endorsements.  Sara has a lot of money in her war chest, but the person on the slate card is her challenger in the Ohio primary, Diane Mullins.  And I am rooting for the pastor of Calvery Church in Hamilton to unseat Sara for a more appropriate representative once Trump is back in office, and an America First platform will be needed from top to bottom in Republican positions.  I’d vote for Diane Mullins in a second and would be very happy to do so.  In my district, I will be voting for Thomas Hall.  However, when it comes to the 47th District, after what Sara Carruthers said and did over a very short time, she deserves to be replaced by someone who represents that district more accurately.  After all, that is the name of the game.  Not every district is the same; the goal is to ensure that voters get proper representation.

From my experience in these kinds of political discussions, where Constitutional concepts are at the core of all discourse, I have found that religious people tend to do better when it comes to defending constitutional necessity.  Since our laws are based on Judeo/Christian Biblical tradition, it takes people familiar with religious life to understand and apply law to daily life.  We’ve tried secular politicians, and they are too easily moved off their mark and corrupted at the slightest temptation.  It has always been a challenging game to play where large amounts of money had to be raised to get a politician’s name identity so that they could even get elected.  That would put politicians always at the short string to those donors, which then could pull them off course to constitutional alignment.  But that has changed a lot over the last few years, where traditional media has lost much of its power, and vlogs, podcasts, and blogs like this have turned out to be far more potent than yard signs and television ads.  More people spend their time getting news online than watching it in front of the television.  So that plays into this opportunity to have someone like Diane Mullins in the 47th seat instead of someone who clearly couldn’t handle the pressure in Sara Carruthers.  Wherever possible, I think the Ohio House would do better to have religious people in representative government, lessons learned.  I’ve always thought that way, but for the sake of society in general, they wanted to believe a more secular approach was possible, but it isn’t.  That experiment has failed miserably.

Of course, there’s more to a representative position than just being religious.  However, in Diane Mullins’s case, she has a lot of experience working with large groups of people and leading community improvements.  It’s interesting to hear how print media trained in classic reporting interprets a pastor of a church running for elected office.  Many of those people have very little understanding of what church on Sundays entails or what the context of biblical study plays in our law and order society.  So they repeat the same woke rules that BlackRock has flowed down to them from the World Economic Forum and expect the people of Hamilton, Ohio, to accept those standards.  News flash, ordinary everyday people don’t care one bit what the aristocrats from Davos think about religious opinion.  They have solid and independent views in Butler County, Ohio, and don’t want a United Nations filter on their political discourse, significantly benefiting Diane Mullins.  She’s fresh and passionate and has proven she can walk through the valley of death and resist temptation.  And that is needed in Columbus.  We need a lot more like her to represent our government.  If we had them, we would be a lot better off in the future.  Traditionally, someone like Diane Mullins would not get much traction because the donors would choke off access to the Central Committees because they controlled the media.  However, as everyone has learned over the last ten years, traditional media is a thing of the past.  A war chest can get some yard signs out.  But it can’t buy people’s opinions as it once did, which has been a hard lesson for the Republican Party.  The hard lesson of Trump should have been evident to everyone, but the globalist types thought they had control, but they never did. 

There are a lot of people who only get involved in politics for the money that can be made off the power the government provides, and among donors, if their business survival depends on globalism, then they are going to try to steer their political representatives into that direction, to protect their viability.  That’s how Mitch McConnell has got himself into so much trouble with his shipping business and how John Boehner lost all credibility as a pot lobbyist.  I’ve had some hard talks with people who have to walk that fine line, and it’s not easy.  However, government service becomes much more viable when the Bible guides representatives.  And I think Diane Mullins would bring a lot of fresh air to the 47th District.  Friendships often form in political efforts because almost everyone is likable when the rubber hits the road.  But we must judge what people do, not what they say, and in Sara’s case, she played a role of deceit when she worked to keep a Speaker of the House who was much more America First from taking the gavel, and for that, she needs to pay.  It will be interesting to see how Diane Mullins does with the Butler County Republican Party endorsement as opposed to the amount of donor money Sara Carruthers has.  It will be a real test of where we are these days on what voters get from their representatives and whether they can break free of the kind of controls that have previously held politics down.  Do the donors control the party, or is it the voters?  We’ll find out on March 19th, 2024.  I hope that Diane Mullins will get a chance to make Butler County Great Again, which could lead to a whole new set of opportunities for a good, moral government.

The Wonderful Purity of Leviticus: Dying on a cross doesn’t solve the problem, but taking a shower will

I hear it all the time: Jesus died on the cross, so my sins were forgiven, which erases away the rituals of the Jewish people in serving God.  To which I say, but never forget the Ten Commandments, which were created out of the same culture to create a new society out of the old, this one that worked.  And it has given the Jewish people the longest-lasting civilization on the face of the earth.  And it has given us the foundation laws for a civilized society.  Jesus is all good, but all that dying on the cross and stuff is for the birds.  It was a society of failures conquered by the Romans 1500 years after the Ten Commandments were followed that proposed this compromise, and once they did, the Jewish people never had their former glory and power on earth directly again.  With all that said, I think there is a lot more to the rituals of the Old Testament that are important to God, and I think we see the apparent blasphemy of it in modern times as a direct assault on the concept of goodness and return humanity to the primitive where they are easy to control.  The laws of God, as given to humanity through the biblical texts, were intended to advance civilization, and those who have followed them have enjoyed such an experience.  So to me, as I explain a lot to people, Jesus and the God of the New Testament are not enough for me.  They are not religious enough.  Jesus had a lot of good to say about life and the afterlife.  But there is more to the game of life, and by the time the New Testament came around, the concept of a Christian rose out of a tired society that was exhausted from being conquered.  So they used Jesus to forgive their sins and hoped that would be enough.  But of course it wasn’t.

The wonderful laws of Leviticus

My position has been to just not sin.  Why ask for forgiveness of sins when you could just not conduct the action?  And that has been my policy most of my life.  I see the laws of Leviticus to be particularly interesting, mainly as they deal with the laws of bodily fluid.  I’m a person who never passes gas and despises it because it is an act of bodily function. I would say the purpose of life is to become more than that, not surrender to the animal acts of the body and its consumption of destructive life mechanisms.  Based on understanding something about quantum mechanics, I would further say that the laws of Leviticus, particularly from Leviticus 15, God needed a clean platform to deal directly with his people, and once people showed that they could not live this clean life, God no longer appeared to his chosen people.  It wasn’t possible. The last successful time they were able to do it was in Solomon’s Temple.  But once the Ark was no longer there and the Jewish priests lost their technique for cleanliness, God was not able to appear to subsequent generations of people.  Instead, Jesus had to be born as the son of God directly to carry away all the sins of society in the flesh, which is very interesting.  This leads to only one conclusion about the interaction with characters of the spirit world: they like and respect clean people.  So, people needed to keep themselves clean to stay close to God. In those times, constantly taking showers without running water was difficult. 

If people spit on each other or discharged sexual fluid in a less-than-contained way, the rituals of cleaning themselves up were quite extensive, and we must conclude there was a good reason for it.  For instance, the interaction with God in the Tabernacle had to be behind a veil so that he could manifest in a cloud of smoke upon the mercy seat of the Ark, the rule of law of the Jewish people.  And bodily fluids, a clear product of our dimensional world, held back this relationship with characters beyond the terrestrial world.  God brought people on Earth laws to live by, but people needed to be clean to interact with God.   And those who found themselves clean were successful.  Those who weren’t saw their societies rise and fall accordingly.  So if people found themselves dirty after sex, for instance, there were detailed rituals they needed to perform to clean themselves so that God could interact with them.  They weren’t belching and farting and giggling about it.  They were locking themselves away until they could clean themselves in the presence of God.  As a creature of another dimension, bodily fluids got in the way of this process.  Leviticus, in particular, was not included in one of the oldest surviving texts of humanity because it didn’t have something important to say about human maintenance.  That God would be so picky about how people preserved themselves is quite an astonishing revelation, especially given the context of those times.  That such concepts forced society to adapt to those needs could undoubtedly contribute to advancing all civilization into what we see today.  Clean behavior was central to a proper relationship with God and the universe.

Yet I will also say, look at the enemies of our culture, especially the one in America, which was built from ancient Jewish law, which our Constitution and Bill of Rights indeed were.  The obvious promotion of personal desecration, especially sexually, in the pornographic culture is a deliberate strategy to keep people from God and higher ideas about living and life in general.  Everyone should be concerned about the invention of the internet, not to help humans survive a nuclear holocaust around the world or to have central control over all humanity, but to pipe pornography into every home and every personal computer for the ritual of destroying the people consuming it.  To keep them as far from God as possible in direct rebellion against God’s intention to help his chosen people live fruitful and productive lives.  Even the concept of Jesus dying on the cross for the forgiveness of sins was part of that ruse.  So that people would dirty themselves up and think that all would be forgiven.  So they would allow themselves to be defiled and to live life without the worry of sinning because Jesus had it covered.  When the real scam by evil in the world was to separate people from their God and the concepts of creation that would take all humans back to the Garden of Eden, the perfect union with the universe for which they were created.  The rebels of God’s divine council intending to overthrow God’s work in the world want the desecration of his creation, so they temp humanity with disgusting rituals of filth and call it a reverence for nature, when in fact, the design is to destroy all who listen.  The pornographic life is meant to keep the mind of humanity in primitive animal life and far away from God and the need for righteousness.  And we see the effects now in a dirty world full of disgraceful sexual conduct meant to push God away so that evil can take over and rule from the chaos.  And to think that it all starts with a simple shower and a desire to live a clean life as the first step toward a righteous order of truth, justice, and the American way.

Learning to Waste Time: Why public education doesn’t make smart people

As I always say, I wouldn’t send my kids to a public school for any amount of money.  If you have an option, you should always use it rather than send your child to such a horrible place.  I’m a big fan of homeschooling for many reasons, but one was most obvious due to several recent events involving one of my grandchildren.  My daughter always updates my wife and me on what she is teaching him, and they take frequent trips down to the Cincinnati Museum Center for education trips, so he’s what I would consider way out in front of other kids his age, which is almost 8.  In many ways, he is way ahead of many 25-year-olds.  He is brilliant, and I don’t just say that because he’s my grandchild.  But his interests are well above and beyond other kids his age.  For instance, this incident of notice was that he one day just painted a map of the known solar system, the inner and outer, and he had details in it regarding planet placement and other celestial bodies that people at NASA would struggle with.  It was very advanced and was a clear sign of a vastly deep interest in the subject of astronomy, and other sciences.  I reminded my daughter that Thomas Edison was homeschooled and if his mom had not taught him independently, he likely would have never developed the genius that he was known for.  I also told my daughter that if her son had painted a picture like that in public school, he would have gotten in trouble for it.  They wouldn’t want the other kids to feel bad for not knowing the same things, so they would have penalized my grandson for showing extraordinary ambition above and beyond. 

Public schools are not designed to create the next Albert Einsteins and Thomas Edisons; they are prone to make the next Karen fight with a welfare recipient over a shopping cart in a Walmart parking lot.  Public schools are not designed to produce intellect.  They are designed to make stupid, compliant people, and I see this all the time in dealing with people of all kinds of educational backgrounds.  The number one thing that public schools teach children is to waste time.  They certainly aren’t trying to get kids to become the next Thomas Edison, which is what my grandson reminds me of, and because he is being homeschooled, we can see the development in him without restriction.  I think most kids are intelligent, but we teach them as a civilization to be stupid.  Our government wants them to be stupid so they cannot challenge their power.  The globalists want stupid people because smart people would never put up with their nonsense.  But the most devastating attribute of government-run schools, and education in general, is that we teach people to waste time.  That wasting time is the priority, not learning.  Being compliant and waiting for someone to give you something, rather than waking up every morning, taking life by the horns, and using it to your advantage.  My grandson gets asked a lot when he goes shopping with my daughter, “Why isn’t he in school?”  Of course, the answer from my daughter is that he finished school at 11 AM.  He started around eight and finished around 11.  Now, he has the rest of the day to do other things, like draw pictures of the solar system, including the contents of the Kuiper Belt.  They do more learning in that four-hour span than most kids get all week, or all month in public school.  And that is sad to realize.

The typical kid wakes up and waits for the bus to pick them up or their parents to drop them off at school.  They then wait for the first class to begin.  They wait for the teacher to give instructions.  They wait for the next class.  They wait in line for lunch.  They wait to go to the bathroom and recess; they wait in line for the drinking fountain.  The primary thing that our education system teaches is for people to wait for things.  So, it should be no surprise that they grow into adults waiting for their tax returns and a pizza to be delivered. They were waiting for a text from a correspondence.  Waiting, waiting, waiting.  They were not taught to do things but to wait for things, so it goes for the rest of their adult lives.  And should we be surprised that we have a society of fools who don’t understand that the election in 2020 was stolen and that our current president is completely illegally inserted?  Or that COVID was a bioweapon built in a lab in Wuhan, China, and released to allow the governments of the world to cheat in elections and knock off rival powers like the United States, not with military weapons, which they don’t have but through the Administrative State.  They exploit their natural inclination to do what the teacher tells them to because they were raised to follow orders and wait for someone to tell them what to do next.  What else does anybody think will happen when society is taught to be compliant, not to think?  And that’s why we have a lot of the problems that we do have socially.  Our education systems have massively failed our society, and almost everyone is a victim of it somehow. 

I’m proud that my kids and their kids are learning not to operate on that ridiculous hamster wheel.  I grew up with most of my friends being honor students, so I’ve always known knowledgeable people.  One guy was so intelligent that he sold his honors robes at his graduation for a small fee to someone who wasn’t very smart, but their family expected to take pictures of them in those robes at graduation.  He sold the robes, and you know what we did with the money? We went to Perkins to have a couple of hamburgers and spend the rest of the day to ourselves while everyone else ran the rat race of wasting time created for them by public education.  I feel pretty strongly about this issue, but when I see a mind alive with excitement and genuine passion for learning, it just reminds me how many other young kids are being disabled for life because the dumb adults in their lives are teaching them to be compliant to the many fools who have acquired power, and they are learning the critical lesson of wasting time.  And they will grow into future employees who waste time.  Taxpayers that waste time.  And gullible fools who believe everything a corrupt government tells them because they are too lazy to ask the obvious questions.  And more concerned with wasting time than learning something new and doing something with that knowledge.  If you trace back many of our modern problems, the source goes back to our education system and its many failures.  Homeschooled kids, at least, aren’t typically taught to accept these failures.  So even if their parents aren’t brilliant, the child isn’t learning to accept such restrictions, making them far better off than their peers for critical thinking.  But unfortunately, this is rare in the world.  I’m happy to see explosive intelligence from my grandchildren because my kids teach them not to accept silly social restrictions to advanced intellectual concepts.  What are we trying to do if we aren’t trying to make the next genius in the world?   I don’t think it’s a mass conspiracy to make the world dumb.  But I think it’s what you get when you let dumb people make up the education system.  You don’t get intelligent people.  But you get people used to wasting time and doing whatever authority figures tell them.  Which, in almost every case, cripples them for life.

Bernie Moreno, Don Jr, and Vivek Ramaswamy at Lori’s Roadhouse: Good people doing good things for all the right reasons

Don Jr Endorsing Bernie Moreno at Lori’s Roadhouse

A reporter for the Cleveland Plains Dealer wanted to talk to me after the Bernie Moreno rally at Lori’s Roadhouse in West Chester, Ohio, on February 28th, 2024.  It was an unusual rally in that Vivek Ramaswamy, Donald Trump Jr., and Kimberly Guilfoyle came with Bernie to support a President Trump endorsement ahead of the March primaries; these were all national figures campaigning for the second senate seat and had the full backing of J.D. Vance.  The reporter wanted to know when I knew I wanted to support Bernie Moreno instead of the two other guys, Frank LaRose and Matt Dolan, and I told him it was late August into September.  I said that Frank had screwed up the election in August for Issue 1, and that was going to hang around his neck for a long time because of what it cost us in Ohio, incredibly loose abortion laws from radical progressive outsiders, and the legalization of pot.  And with Matt Dolan, who owns the Cleveland Indians baseball team and allowed himself to be arm-twisted into changing the name to the Guardians, he was simply too soft.  If that’s all he could do to resist the woke mob of lefties who have taken over our government, then he would be no good as a senator.  As Don Jr pointed out during the Moreno rally, a sports team is a little thing that doesn’t matter much to people in the grand scheme.  If Dolan fell short of courage for that little issue, what would he do in the SWAMP, where things mattered quite a lot and the pressure was much more intense?  As I told the reporter, I know both Frank LaRose and Matt Dolan, and they would be nice, typical politicians under normal circumstances.  But they aren’t the kind of fighters needed these days, where we need MAGA Republicans to fit the Trump agenda once President Trump is back in office, and out of them all, only Bernie Moreno fits the need.

I’ve had the opportunity to meet Bernie Moreno several times now, including the private lunch we had back in September, and for me, it’s not even a question.  He is the right guy to go up against Sherrod Brown, which continued my reasoning to the reporter.  It’s not enough to win the Republican primary; once Trump endorses someone in the Republican Party, it seals it for whoever that is.  But to get elected into the Senate will be a brutal campaign against Brown, who is deeply entrenched, and it will take someone as likable as Moreno to pull it off.  Even with the Trump endorsement, it will be a steep haul, and the other guys have too much baggage.  They have brand damage that Brown will easily exploit in a general election, so it comes down to who can beat Sherrod Brown.  And Bernie is that person.  I knew it when I first met him, and now, in West Chester, Ohio, with the coveted Trump endorsement behind him and compelling personalities campaigning with him, it is pretty clear what the path forward is.  Ohio deserves some of the best possible senators we could get, and J.D. Vance has picked his partner in the act. Our task is to give him the tools he needs to succeed.  So, the picture was becoming quite clear at the Lori’s Roadhouse rally.  It was a packed venue for an afternoon event in the middle of the work week.  After the rally, everyone went up to a fundraiser at Wetherington, and the Republican Party was unifying behind a clear strategy, and it was great to see. 

Don Jr knows how to engage with a crowd

Seeing so many culminating aspects come together that I have watched uniquely over the last few years was very satisfying.  I enjoyed watching Vivek speak, Don Jr, Kimberly, and, of course, Bernie.  Don Jr. is such a good guy, especially in person.  I had some people with me, and Don signed the wallet of one of them, to have such a down-to-earth guy, the firstborn son of an ostentatious billionaire, is a real treasure.  Don Jr. balances celebrity with practicality amazingly well, and he’s funny.  I’ve seen him in person many times now, and he is always a fine line between comedy and serious political commentary.  And, of course, with Vivek Ramaswamy, I remember being invited to an event with him in Middletown where he essentially launched his political career.  The fabulous Nancy Nix was in front of me during the rally, proudly watching the events on stage at Lori’s, almost like a proud mother.  Many people don’t know it, but she has her hand in most of these things in Butler County.   She put Vivek and I together in a meeting ahead of the release of his book Woke, Inc., which I think will be the economic platform for American policy over the next ten years.  I felt it when I first read it, and I am very sure of it now, and Nancy knows it, too.  She was also very important to the launching of J.D. Vance, which I wasn’t convinced of initially.  But Nancy understood these personalities very well and worked hard behind the curtain to ensure everything worked and the right people got into the right jobs and met the right people along the way.

Lori Fisher and her husband Greg own Lori’s Roadhouse, and they certainly go above and beyond. A great place to save America!

I only mention Nancy because as I have come to know some of these people, and this is what I was thinking about while talking to the reporter for the Cleveland newspaper, there is some real magic going on with these events that defy conventional political thinking, and my articulation of the point struck the reporter.  These were not typical political considerations but a fight between the life and death of a country and the world’s economy.  And none of these people, including me, needed to do any of this stuff.  All the people traveling with Bernie are rich and powerful.  They don’t need to be in politics.  And I’ve been involved in Butler County politics in Ohio most of my life, and there aren’t that many good people like Nancy Nix who are not in love with name-dropping and power playing, who just do good things because they want to do good things.  There aren’t enough good people in the world doing good things for good reasons.  That includes Greg and Lori, who run Lori’s Roadhouse, they didn’t need to do what they were doing to support these kinds of events.  As I looked around the room at all the people present, Jim and Lee Redkey were standing next to me, T. C Rogers too, and Michael Ryan, along with many others who could have been doing a million other things with their time.  But they were there to support people who were going to great measure to do the right things for our country.  And it was wonderful to witness.  When you start to see the hidden hand of righteousness working over time toward a grand fortissimo of justice and history playing out before our eyes, it’s a magnificent spectacle that doesn’t quite fit the description in a typical newspaper commentary on politics.  It’s simple yet infinitely complex, as so many moving pieces starting many years ago have moved toward this moment as a destiny seeking to be fulfilled.  And so many people played their part, least not the people on the stage supporting Bernie Moreno.  A promise of great things yet to come because people who define greatness purely, not for the recognition they might get or the financial resources that follow, but because it was the right thing to do is a hope for a future that nobody has yet witnessed in the history of the world.  And it was at Lori’s Roadhouse in West Chester, Ohio, on an unusually warm day and a political onslaught yet to come that greatness peaked its head out for all to see.

Yes, the RNC Should Pay Trump’s Legal Bills: Making the Republican Party Great Again

There is a lot of talk about Lara Trump being the co-chair of the RNC and all the checks and balances that go into running the Republican organization, and here’s the deal.  President Trump is the Republican Party.  I’ve been telling everyone that since 2015, and the reason for it is that everyone who came before didn’t do a very good job.  What is needed these days in political parties is solid executive leadership, and the Trump family, as a whole, has offered to fill that role for all the classic reasons of saving the country and all that.  To perform that task has cost President Trump billions of dollars in opportunity cost, so since he is so committed to the task, it should not be a surprise that Lara Trump would step in and help do whatever she can to make the Republican Party great again.  You can’t make America Great Again if you don’t have a political party committed to the task, and when it comes to RINO Republicans and Democrats, the Uni-Party essentially they have been captured by the enemies of America through the front door of finance.  So anyway, improving the situation would require like-minded people, such as Lara Trump, who, like her father-in-law, is living beyond corruption because of their wealth.  Understanding how to deal with millions of dollars is the first step to running a successful party, and there just aren’t that many people out there in that position with the charisma that Lara has.  I’ve met her a few times, along with her husband and the other Trump kids; they are friendly and sincere.  I met a few of them yesterday in fact.  And I have no problem with any involvement they want to contribute to the RNC.  There are short-term goals and then long-term necessities.  And as I have been saying all along, with J.D. Vance and Vivek Ramaswamy, they are the future of the Republican Party.  But we have to get to that future, and there is an all-out war presently to destroy President Trump, and the first task of the RNC is to protect him so he can protect the Party brand.

That raises the obvious question of whether the RNC should pay for President Trump’s legal bills.  Right now, it’s not in very good shape; fundraising has been lacking because the RNC has not been very committed to the Trump future, which should have been obvious.  Too many Never-Trumpers have run them, and it shows on their balance sheets.  And the answer is yes, an emphatic yes.  If Trump is the future, then supporting him should be the top priority, and these legal cases against him are purely political, so it becomes a political matter.  People donating to the RNC will want to know that their candidates will win, and defending Trump is a way to achieve that.  Of course, the Democrats want to bleed Trump of everything he’s worth, like the looting thugs that they are.  So they don’t want to see the RNC help Trump in any way, shape, or form.  But if the RNC could put a billion dollars in its accounts, it should be willing to give it to Trump’s legal expenses and more.  The best way to frustrate the Marxists involved in this hostile attack against Trump is to make all their efforts worthless.  To make all their long-established plans fail in front of their faces.  And nothing would do that better than to charge Trump back up after all these corrosive abuses of the court system to destroy him financially. 

Trump’s brand will help many Republicans down the ballot, so we are looking at a different way of spending money here.  These court cases are far better advertising than the typical television ads and radio bits.  That old media sustainability is a thing of the past.  People don’t elect candidates based on old media methods.  New media is where it’s all at, and Trump is all over the topics of news in that realm.  The court cases are the best advertising because they give new media a lot to discuss, which is where people’s minds are.  The Democrats could spend a billion dollars on traditional media, which still won’t help them because the advertisement market has changed dramatically.  A billion dollars still only gives access to the same five or six people competing for space with aging medication and lawyers preparing wills.  The 50 and Underground are on new media, blogs, vlogs, podcasts, YouTube, and everywhere but where they once were.  And the only thing anybody is talking about in new media is how unfair it has been against Trump this entire process.   Because of President Trump, we have all received tremendously valuable information about how corrupt our government has become.  It certainly hasn’t been accountable to “we the people.”  Hostile agents have hijacked our government, and it has been serving their interests.  So we live in an age with all new rules on supporting political parties and the candidates up and down the ticket.  And there is no better motivator for political action than what has been done to Trump.  So, keeping him healthy should be the top priority.  It is the best way to use any money the RNC acquires for political viability. 

As a good example of how powerful capitalism is, the Trump shoe campaign was enormously successful, where Trump came up with his brand of tennis shoes and launched them at a sporting event.  Trump’s brand could generate billions of dollars of revenue just through the sale of t-shirts, ties, and red MAGA hats.  In the long run, preserving and working with the Trump family will greatly fill up the accounts of the RNC as a money-raising machine.  Nothing brings in donations better than success, so the strategy of trying to keep Trump away from the RNC will only hurt the RNC in the future.  They need to embrace full support of Trump and ride the coattails of Trump into down-ballot Republican pick-ups.  The anger at how the court system is rigged against Trump by itself is enough to carry all Republicans across the finish line, so there is no better way to spend Republican donations.  This was not part of the plan by Democrats and RINO Republicans.  They didn’t think Trump would make it this far, and all this talk of forcing Trump to come up with cash by selling off assets to drain him financially would go away in frustration if there was a cash infusion from donors.  The best way to do that is to combine the Trump brand with the RNC and make them whole so people aren’t confused about who or what they support.  If people know their donations are helping Trump, they’ll send a check for $20 to $50.  People understand that Trump is fighting for them, so they’ll be motivated to contribute.  But if money goes to the Trump Organization and some to the RNC, those efforts will be divided, and both will fall short of the goal.  I think the RNC under Lara Trump will raise over a billion dollars, likely more.  But it takes the right person at the right time, under the right circumstances.  And if everyone worked together and supported Trump, many good things could happen for the Republican Party in the future, which would be great for America.

Ramaswamy, Vance and Musk All in One Place: The future looks bright after Trump finally leaves office

I am glad that a brilliant person invited me to an unusual online town hall on the X platform with Elon Musk, J.D. Vance, and Vivek Ramaswamy, along with others, talking about political events.  It reminded me of just how much power new media has, but more than that, it was a glimpse into the future.  Of life after President Trump.  We spend so much time talking about getting Trump back in office that the more significant issue of what kind of future comes after Trump often gets ignored where it shouldn’t.  We know what Trump will do in office; he has done it before, and history will remember him as one of the greatest presidents in the history of the world.  And because of all Joe Biden’s radical executive orders, many of the terrible things happening to America right now will be able to be undone quickly, and fiscal and social policy that has been detrimental will have quick solutions to them.  And Trump will be able to do great things fast over the next four years.  But then what?  Does the pendulum swing back in the other direction as it is about to do against Democrats, who have grown way too big for their britches and need a righteous ass-kicking?  I have already stated my position, which I think is becoming more apparent to everyone else by the day; my pick for the Vice President of Vivek Ramaswamy is an investment into the future.  I have met him a few times, as well as J.D. Vance, and there is a deep bench of Republicans who are ready to offer themselves in leadership positions.  They are brilliant and personally wealthy, which makes them least tempted toward corruption, and they are willing to follow a blueprint established by Trump that will last for many decades.  So, more and more, the VP picked by Trump for his next term is more important than any other factor.

But there is a wild card in Elon Musk that is new.  Four years ago, even a year ago, Elon Musk was flirting with the idea of a Ron DeSantis candidacy, but he was very reluctant to commit to political discussion as he has been a kind of global citizen as that movement spawned out of the World Economic Forum.  He was their poster boy for the future and, as the world’s richest man, their greatest asset.  So, people were slow to trust anything Elon Musk had to say about anything.  But he did buy Twitter and turned it over to X.  I’m a big fan of SpaceX, and I like Tesla vehicles for what they are: significant innovations in the field of fancy golf carts.  I admire the ambitions of Musk, and I think I understand him pretty well because we are both fans of Douglas Adams, which establishes an intelligence that I can indeed find common ground.  But the person I heard on that podcast with Vivek and Vance at the same time was a person noticeably interested in politics and, I would dare say, supportive of the MAGA agenda.  And I came away from that broadcast very happy that the future was going to be covered and be perhaps even better than with Trump in the White House. Because we saw a blueprint with those personalities that could change the world in a very positive way, all three of them have done great work lately to contribute to a capitalist world and know how to defend it from the global socialists, and that is something new.

While there are people who have been justifiably reluctant to trust Musk on anything, I do have personal experience with some of these people and understand that politically, they are all people who were not necessarily born Republican.  In J.D. Vance’s situation, he was very anti-Trump in 2016 after making a movie about his life with Ron Howard, one of the biggest anti-Trumpers on planet earth.  But as most intelligent people do, they gather information and figure out what’s best, so now, in 2024, even 2022, when he was running for the senate, J.D. Vance has become one of the most excellent MAGA representatives that there is on the world stage, and he has had a significant impact.  He has not let me down, that’s for sure.  I asked him some very specific questions in the backyard of Nancy Nix’s house about this exact time, and he has more than lived up to his answer.  He’s the real deal.  And I’ve told similar stories about Vivek Ramaswamy.  He has grown into his role as Mr. MAGA, but he didn’t start that way.  Like any intelligent person, he has observed the world’s conditions and adjusted his politics to meet them.  Along the way, new friendships have been formed, and I certainly like having these guys on the right side. That’s how you get to be a big tent party, and there is undoubtedly nothing phony about their commitment to a better political world.  With minds like theirs in politics, as they are both still under 40, the future looks very bright after Trump finally leaves office and is out of politics for good.  We may see several decades of prosperity with personalities like this leading the way. 

But I’ve said of Musk before, while others have been very reluctant to support him, that eventually he would figure out that there was no way that Earth could become a space-faring society with the current globalist plans toward communism.  And Musk has undoubtedly become more vocal, which I thought was stunning during that political podcast, to hear all three of those guys and others joining in talking about the future of the world.  Listening in with the rest of the audience, it was clear that Trump was just the point guard in this effort, a way to distribute the ball of capitalism to this next generation, which Musk would play a massive part in.  For the new economy of space to flourish the way Musk wants it to, and so do I, there had to be a regime change across the entire world, and these guys understood it.  I thought it was one of the most remarkable broadcasts I have ever heard and wouldn’t have happened before Elon Musk bought up X as a communication platform.  It’s not so much in the obvious things that the improvements will come.  It’s far more significant than President Trump returning to the White House, tearing up the horrendous Executive Orders from Joe Biden, and making America Great Again.  It’s what comes after that we should all be excited about.  And yes, there is an after.  By electing Trump, we get minds like Vance, Ramaswamy, and Musk on the world stage to build genuinely remarkable economic opportunities that will make it possible to have a whole new market economy on the frontiers of space.  And as bad as things have been, things have real potential to improve.  There is no point in history where such minds have pulled together for the good of the future, but in the wake of President Trump and his bold tenacity poised to save humanity from certain doom with optimism and intelligence unleashed perhaps for the first time in the history of all lifeforms in the universe.  And that makes today a pretty good one.

George Lang’s Business Ratio: The New Bass Pro in West Chester, Ohio

Over the last several weeks, it has been interesting to hear from so many people upset that I support George Lang, the current State Senator in the 4th District in Ohio, and will continue to do so.  They think he is a RINO and that somehow I can’t tell the difference between a rhino and an elephant.  And the concern continues because I know many politicians, and I like many of them, and I’ve been very open about it.  People new to politics or who don’t have an excellent understanding of what the government is supposed to do for all of us get wrapped up in the horse race criteria that the media creates for them, so supporting candidates for various positions becomes a kind of football game where some people in Ohio support the Cincinnati Bengals because they happen to live south of Columbus while people in the north support the Cleveland Browns.  Those in Columbus fight over which is the better, depending on the record.  But in the end, it’s all rigged, and they are all the same guys and corporate products designed to sell advertising to people.  Politics is much the same kind of thing, and what we usually end up with are people who don’t do a very good job once in office.  They talk the talk but never walk the walk.  And the people I tend to support do so on merit-based standards.  I judge them more on what they actually do than what they say, and when it comes to George Lang, who doesn’t say much about himself too often, he does a lot in the background that is very successful.  And one of these, there was undoubtedly a topic of conversation ahead of the March primary; I had the good fortune to attend the opening of Bass Pro for a unique sneak peek ahead of the crowds with George.  And we geeked out by what we saw.  But as we enjoyed a private tour and I did a scouting report on some of my hard-to-find .500 magnum ammunition and acquire much-needed 209 shotgun primers, I was reminded of why I like George so much.  Not that it’s a struggle, but when I say he’s a great politician and has done all of us such a great job, I look at Bass Pro moving to West Chester as part of the great free enterprise initiatives that George Lang has built over the years, things that operate in the background, and the case for George Lang makes itself quite clear. 

I remember when George and I were friends as he was a trustee in West Chester 15 years ago, and he struggled to fight to keep the trend of the area toward small government and generate much economic wealth, as a township instead of a city.  I have a rule I talk about all the time, which I discuss in great detail in my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, which people worldwide have been enjoying because the balance of government is the key to a country’s success.  Just as it was set up to do in America, the government needs to be big enough to support the needs of a country or a community but not too big to become authority figures, which is tricky business among anybody in the human race, anywhere in the world.  But few places have done it better than West Chester, Ohio.  I have been a part of it since the beginning, starting when we used to call it Union Township, and it was mostly farmland and open fields.  It was strange to stand in the new Bass Pro parking lot with my wife a few days later during the grand opening when she remembered me racing cars against other rival people in that area.  Things have changed quite a lot.  However, the form of government formed around the growth of West Chester Township is a success story that traces back to George Lang.  To have such a community run by three trustees is unusual in the world, where so much wealth is generated among so many people, and to have such a high standard of living is almost unheard of.  But George established much of that in those early days, and the trustees there now have continued those policies and resisted the temptation to turn West Chester into a city with a mayor and city councils running everything.  The success in West Chester is that George Lang and future trustees have embraced the capitalist concept of free enterprise and kept government as small as possible to allow businesses to grow, and as a result, West Chester has been, and continues to be, one of the best places in the world, not just the country.  I’ve been all over the world several times.  And I’ve been all over the United States and seen a lot of very nice communities.  There are few places as good as West Chester, Ohio.  I would argue that no place is better.  The reasoning is that the government ratio has been figured out and maintained in West Chester mainly because of George Lang’s precedent.

The Bass Pro story is a good one.  We have been fortunate to have a Bass Pro in Forest Park and a Cabela’s in West Chester by Liberty Center.  Since Bass Pro bought Cabela’s over the last decade, I have mixed feelings about them combining resources to make this new Bass Pro in West Chester, which opened on February 21st, 2024.  I liked both previous stores and hated to see them go.  But the property for the new one was established over a decade ago, and once they were planning to move to the new location, Forest Park made them an excellent deal on their lease, so they stuck around while the market settled down and the agreement with Cabela’s matured.  The giant outdoor store market has found its balancing act, as Field and Stream have discovered.  How big can you be and still be small enough to survive?    I tend to judge all Bass Pro stores based on my favorite, the one in Springfield, Missouri, the headquarters of a vast store, as I have discussed before.  As George and I stepped into the new Bass Pro, it was more Cabela’s in its presentation than Bass Pro, but it’s a fantastic size and filled with everything anybody could ever hope to have regarding outdoor life.  My family spends a lot of time exploring and traveling, so a store like this is a wonderful addition to our life.  The new West Chester store is enormous.  It is noticeably different from the one in Forest Park, but it is right-sized to fill the needs of the current outdoor market.  Having the ground on the Streets of West Chester is far better for them than in any of the other two previous locations. 

And that’s the trick: why did Bass Pro select that location in West Chester instead of other regional places?   The Forest Park site was failing because the community failed, as has Fairfield, Springdale, and Sharonville around the area.  All those places have moved in the city direction and have added government in the form of mayors and city councils that slowed down the growth rate because they started looting off their businesses to support the government.  West Chester is very business-friendly, and the tax structure is not penalizing.  If you keep your government small, they don’t have the ability to loot off the community.  And additionally, we have kept the government school of Lakota under check for well over a decade now, so they haven’t been able to suck the life out of West Chester and Liberty Township the way the schools do in other parts of the world.  The result is that investments like those that take a Bass Pro Shop to build and develop can happen, where different communities would choke off the opportunity at the development phase.  Working in the background as one of Ohio’s most powerful senators, George Lang is bringing those same sensibilities to the entire state of Ohio.  And he’s doing a great job.  Whenever I go to Columbus to talk politics, the word about George is that he stays focused on his Business First Caucus and doesn’t get wrapped up in much else.  He is applying the West Chester model, which he helped to build from the start to Ohio in general.  The Ohio Senate listens to him, as does the House, and he has the ear of the governor in a healthy way.  You don’t see George running for every microphone to broadcast everything he does.  When I took a few pictures of him at the opening of the new Bass Pro, he was a little shy about taking credit.  But I know the details behind the scenes, and he deserves much credit.  And that’s also why I’m so supportive of him over these many years and continue to be.  George understands how to support just enough government to make it functional.  And takes away the flash of temptation for it to grow into a monster.  And everywhere George has been, his fight has been to keep government small and manageable.  Bass Pro is just a recent but obvious example.  And it was great to see it happen.

The Corporation of the United States against The United States of America: We are well into this new Civil War, which is behind the actions of Letitia James

I hate to say it, but there is a reason a lot of this diabolical behavior has been allowed to gestate in our American culture, where radical Marxists like Fani Willis and that goofball loser from New York, Letitia James, are permitted to cover for a maniacal menace to our Constitutional Republic.  We don’t discuss it much, but it’s a genuine problem.  I of course have talked about it for years, but to this detail we haven’t spent much time, because it’s a depressing concept.  And that is the idea that the truth of our nation and the nature of globalism is that corporations run it rather than the people.  And that our governments are set up to give the illusion that people are in charge, just like in the marketplace, but that behind-the-scenes decisions are made for the preservation of the corporation at the expense of everything else.  Of course, there are all kinds of things wrong with this idea, and I refuse the premise.  Not that it exists, but that it is the foundation for our rule of law.  Yet, when it is analyzed why so many people in government hate the idea of President Trump, and that they will do anything to stop him from even running for office, let alone being in charge of the Executive Branch, then we have to talk about this essential problem that we do not have a United States of America ran as republic, but a Corporation of the United States ran by corporate communists.  This traces back to the battlelines that the World Economic Forum has established, and we saw their footprints all over COVID-19 and the Great Reset economy they attempted.  However, the roots of this corporation idea started a long time ago, most notably in the 1950s during Eisenhower’s term in office.  He didn’t want to sell us out to the global corporations, but they pinned him down which led to his famous speech upon exiting office, warning us of this menace.

Not only do I know a lot of lawyers, but I also know many people with very high IQs.  And I know and have known quite a few people with IQs in the 200 range, which is supposed to be impossible.  I can say that I have known more than one to keep some form of anonymity for their own good.  Because they are not necessarily flag-waving patriots the way I am, or you might be, dear reader.  These are people who have been trying to recruit me for the last thirty years into the Sovereign Citizens Movement, and they have been in and out of jail and have all kinds of problems.  Not because they are dumb, of course, but they are too smart to play the game, which the rest of us do.  And that game is that America is a free nation run by free people.  They would argue that it’s a corporation, that our Social Security numbers are our only real names, and that we are all products of the state as the state decides.  And that government is run by corporations, which I think is beyond a doubt.  What we’ve seen over these last few years when we talk about the Deep State is these kinds of characters scrambling around in a panic.  Like the Wizard in The Wizard of Oz, Toto pulled back the curtain to the Wizard’s little booth, where he made all the illusions the world saw.  Trump’s was in that effect, Toto pulling back the curtain to the Deep State, and suddenly everything real started to emerge, shattering the illusion of a free republic.

I have told these people over the years that I do not acknowledge a Corporation of America.  I only recognize the American Constitution, and anybody who does not adhere to the Constitution of the United States of America will have a lot of trouble with me.  And that has certainly been the case over a long period, and there’s not much anybody can do about it in protest.  The courts must support an assumption that they follow the Constitution to maintain the illusion of a republic.  But due to their impatience, they have been pushing to subvert the Constitution for years and replace it with a kind of corporation human resource handbook intending to enable outright communism, which most corporations are attracted to for obvious reasons of centralized planning.  But strategically, I have expressed to all these citizen protestors, again, not stupid people, that I would always stand with the Constitution, and anybody who wanted to fight about it would have to deal with it.  Because I wasn’t giving up on it, and I certainly had no plans to be a fugitive rebel living in the mountains, hoping the FBI, CIA, and IRS never find me.  I’m a kick-the-front-door kind of guy, not a sneak-around subversive type.  So, that has been an impasse I have lived with for a long time, and my position on it is essential because of what we are witnessing now.  There are no longer a few random people talking about these things, but essentially everyone.

The reason of importance now to discuss it, in the wake of all that’s happened to President Trump, and the more success he has, the more panic that there is from these Corporation of America types, which we loosely call RINOs, Deep Staters, Administrators of the Administrative State, people like Mitch McConnell and other members of the House and Senate who have become very rich off politics.  People like Biden and his puppet master Barack Obama.  Who do you think put the terrorists from the Weather Underground in power who then put Obama in the White House?  It was not a random act, and it turned out to be the same people who used the power of government to steal the 2020 election.  It’s the members of the hostile Corporation of America, and they wish to keep their gig going without revolution.  But we are in another Civil War as we speak, and yes, people are being killed.  The battlefield is in our living rooms, school boards, and Chambers of Commerce.  And it’s not so easy to see who the good guys are.  But for me, the good guys stand for the Constitution.  Those against it are the enemy.  We are fighting for a free United States of America from the forces of the Corporation of the United States, which is just one door in the centralized planning scheme of the World Economic Forum.  Unfortunately, these guys have been in power operating outside Constitutional law for a long time.  And now we are ripping away their assumptions about existence, and it will be messy.  And the days of battle that I have told my friends over the years that I would stand on are here.  I stand for the Constitution, and anybody who says otherwise is an enemy of the United States, and that’s how it will be.  And they will suffer accordingly.  This isn’t a new problem.  For most of us, it has been in the background our entire lives.  But it’s not how it’s supposed to be, and they won’t give up their scam easily.  Which ultimately, is on them when they suffer for it.
