Democrats Tend to Be Bad With Money: The attempt to hide a lack of value behind chaos and emotion

One of the big takeaways when you meet people who have all kinds of psychological problems and tend to lean toward Democrat politics is that they are bad with money.  They don’t understand money, don’t like to talk about money, and tend to have a natural hatred toward people who do have money because of what money represents in the world.  Money is a measure of value; it’s what something means to someone else in an agreed-upon value of exchange.  Then naturally, those who don’t produce much value in the world or are insecure about that value and what people think of it resent money because it exposes them to all their insecurities.  That is why I say that the participants have problems in Democrat politics, which is why they are attracted to forms of collectivism to hide their lack of value from the world behind disguised altruism.  They are broken people who are otherwise detrimental to all existence.  And I don’t say all this to disparage people needlessly, but we have to understand why and how these people have moved into government employment and regulation.  As we move into talks about reducing government employment and the many millions on a government payroll who do too little and get paid way too much, at the heart of the problem is this problem of Democrat politics, the hatred of money, and the desperate effort to use collective services to hide their otherwise worthless, social traits.  Government expansion for the sake of social goalposts rather than the value of a job well done and work performed that people value and want.  The great fear many have about the efforts of D.O.G.E demanding, for instance, that people return to work after years of staying home and getting paid for it has at the heart of it this sense of entitlement that is expensive.  A person exists, and someone needs to pay them for that existence rather than earn their way through life for the value performed that people want.  This makes any government oversight a rejection of people who have decided to be worthless to the world because of their lack of productivity.

You see this kind of thing all the time in business these days, with woke politics and its attempts to embed itself into an American capitalist culture.  Hidden behind the complaints is a genuine desire to conceal their worthless nature.  Companies use money to measure value. In that case, it is that premise that liberalism has used through Democrat politics to hide useless behavior and attempt to disguise it as a value.  For the same reason that Joe Biden is working to sign protection for federal workers before he leaves office, allowing them to stay home under continued employment, by law, the same methodology has been applied to the world of business and attempting to attack profit and loss statements and replace those values with woke compliance.  Once that is the assumed value, all actions that relate to the measurement of money become irrelevant, and it’s not soon after that a company goes bankrupt.  Or at least performing poorly financially.  It has been stunning over these last few years because many of the money haters out there thought things were shifting in their direction to see how many open Marxists have emerged and how much they profess for more government regulation to impose their version of fairness upon the world, that ultimately means, to protect them from value judgments that are traditionally measured in money.  They want more government pay for less work done, and the gig only works if everything takes away the value of money to measure success and replaces those needs with woke politics. 

Karl Marx was always a money-hating despot who wrote his philosophy with an eye toward total social disruption.  And for people who question their value, Marxism gave them a home to hide in from the world in hopes that nobody would notice how lazy and stupid they were.  Karl Marx himself died a very broke person. The only reason his philosophy of communism and, overall, Marxism spread the way it did was that it was a weaponized idea that served the concept of centralized governments.  Over time, these ideas migrated into the human resource departments of most of our companies and their measurement policies of money.  As many scratched their heads about this activity, the attempt was to replace monetary value as a measurement of social compliance scores and to make dog-eat-dog capitalism subservient to fairness measurements imposed by the government for more government expansion.  And under that premise, of course, the government grew in uncomfortable ways and cost too much money to maintain because too many worthless participants were leeching off the system.  That has been my argument about public schools for years. Finally, more people are catching up to it, and we are now having honest conversations about it.  But it wasn’t always that way.  We were told to spend infinite amounts of money on public schools no matter the results because the measurement wasn’t in cash but in creating fairness in the world.  And from there, budgets ran out of control.  Most of the time, when you see a runaway budget, Democrat politics is looming in the background and is seeking to be subsidized by emotional measures to avoid monetary value.

Money has to be the measure to have a healthy relationship with the world.  And everyone should love money for the truth it reveals about people.  And we must have a government that honors and respects money as a measure of value. For instance, the Biden administration is purposely selling off portions of the border wall with Mexico out of spite because Trump is returning to the White House, and they want to make it hard for him to return to building the wall.  The wall itself is a statement of value that people crossing that border are moving from a Marxist government in Mexico to a capitalist government in America, and one is better than the other.  But Marxists want to hide that value measurement from the world with borderless sentiments so that people hopefully won’t notice.  That kind of policy ends up on P&L statements worldwide, slowly destroying everything in the background.  But at the heart of it is a hatred of money because it exposes bankrupt personalities from judgments cast upon them for their worthlessness.  Such people could be given millions of dollars, but they still waste it faster than they get it because they are bottomless pits of destructive personality traits that they attempt to hide from the world through government power and a change in how value is perceived.  In truth, there is only one way to measure value, and money is the agreement among the human race on how to express it across culture and social alliance.  Having a love of money because it measures shared value accurately is healthy and good.  And we must return to it for the good of a productive future.  And not fuel jealousy from those who don’t work hard to be good people and reside behind social policies that point to money as the villain when it’s the other way around.

The Truth About Drones Over New Jersey and the World: Forces losing control are trying to scare us back into submission

So, what’s going on with the drones all over New Jersey and many other places around the world?  I think many people are partially correct about what they think they are.  Alex Jones is not wrong; I do not doubt that the evil forces in the world are trying to provoke a nuclear war with a false flag event.  That is how they have gained and stayed in power after all these years, through fear, so ahead of Trump’s return to the White House, there are no doubt plans for mass chaos in any way possible.  I also know a lot of people who think that the actual government of the world, behind the World Economic Forum activity, are aliens running everything from behind the military-industrial complex, and they are all stirred up that they feel they are losing control with the incoming anti-globalist position of President Trump.  As Trump said, and I agree with him, if aliens are flying around harassing our people over our sovereign country, then shoot them down.  Don’t assume that just because they have UFOs or whatever they want to call them these days, they are superior to any of us.  We have sovereign rights over our domestic country and do not yield them to anything or anybody.  That has to be the American policy.  We do not yield to anything “greater” than us.  Never forget, H.G. Wells, who wrote War of the Worlds, was a major socialist, so this idea of fear of something that pushes everyone to support global communist governments out of fear of some superior otherworldly force is a rather stupid one, yet many are hoping that such a fear might prevent what is going to come from the new Trump administration.  There is plenty to be concerned about, but if I bump into any of these characters, the same rules of personal protection apply, no matter who they are.  I’m with Trump; shoot them down.

I’ve done a lot of research on this topic; I went to Roswell, New Mexico, to study this topic.  I’ve seen plenty of UFOs.  And while I do have lots of very complicated thoughts about how the world was seeded with life and that I think humanity is much older than what we find on Earth through linear history, most of the UFO sightings that we experience are primarily politically motivated by those who are seeking to control us through the fear of what might be.  By constantly reminding us of something superior that is out there beyond our world, their hope is to shepherd us into following global leadership toward a one-world international government for personal protection.  It’s no different than when a rancher cracks a whip to drive cattle or some other herd of animals in the direction they want them to go.  Not long ago, I did a whole report about the CIA and UFOs at the old LeSourdsville Lake Park in Monroe, Ohio, and just a few days later, one appeared right over the Speedway there.  It hovered in the sky just a few miles from my house, clearly in front of the cars stuck at the traffic light for all to see.  Then it flew off to the north at such a pace that the centrifugal force would have killed everyone inside it, as it went from zero to thousands of miles an hour in less than a fraction of a second.  I think there were a lot of things going on with that UFO sighting, but I don’t think it was aliens visiting us.

There are a lot of AI programs watching everything being said, and with drone technology being what it is today, they are very advanced and can run entirely off computer programs to create brilliant illusions. If you’ve ever seen some of these modern drone shows, they are very sophisticated.  There are also skycars, the size of buses that fly around all the time and can fly very well.  Additionally, projection technology, which I think was the case with the UFO in Monroe, directly addressed my comments and explained how it moved so fast in the sky.  It is possible to project a 3D image in an almost holographic imprint against the molecular structure of air, especially on high-humidity nights or similar cloudy conditions.  So I think we are seeing a lot of attempts here to scare the human race back into submission as the world is seeing all these trends toward populism that are getting well out of control.  After all, we have people like Giorgia Meloni of Italy and Javier Milei of Argentina, who are the rising stars of leadership in the world, and that is a very new thing, which is joining Trump as an anti-globalist force in control now.  And globalism has been attached to UFO phenomena from the beginning of the United Nations.  That’s why there is so much on Netflix: to train the human race in such speculations so that the government can provide parental roles for protection.  However, the trend is to reject that projection and control the fate of each country individually.  And ahead of Trump returning to the White House, the globalist forces are in a panic, which they are showing through control over this particular kind of technology that is more visual than actually dangerous. 

So what I think, whatever forces they are, the powers that have been in control are losing control and are throwing a fit ahead of Trump’s inauguration.  And they are trying every trick in the book to hold power from a world that is quickly rejecting globalism massively.  When I witnessed the UFO event in Monroe, it was just a letdown to be so obvious.  I did a video and written article about all this and here was an answer just a few days later in an attempt to re-establish an alien attack narrative that organizations like the CIA count on to keep mass society under control.  But my research in Roswell had already convinced me that much of the UFO talk out there was more commercial than realistic.  Oh, I do believe in life on other planets.  I think there is a lot of it out there, and as we move into space, we will learn a lot about ourselves.  But most of the Roswell incident was out of commercial needs to boost their economy more than alien visits.  And that is most of the time the case.  Democrats, like Hillary Clinton and John Podesta, have been very excited about a Full Disclosure event that will reveal all that we know about aliens interacting with our government, and that same type of mentality is behind this current drone invasion that is happening all over the world.  But none of that will change the political trajectory we are all on.  If something flies over our countries, we need to shoot them down.  We do not want more government to protect us from aliens, which has always been the push.  If the aliens want to talk, we can talk.  But we are moving on as a human race to a government representing the work people need to have done.  Not one that people worship like a god out of fear of some force that’s out there and has more technology than we do.  Those days are over, and they are never coming back.

The Biden Crime Family: Rudy Guiliani wrote the book, now we must have the courage to prosecute

I’ve always been a big fan of Rudy Guiliani, and I took what was done to him after the Trump coup in 2020 with massive, government-sponsored election fraud and sought to personally destroy him in every way, shape, and form as a very personal attack.  Rudy is one of the best law enforcement officers we have seen in this country, America.  He is much bigger of a figure than Elliot Ness, who took on Al Capone and the Chicago mob.  In New York, Rudy Guiliani took on all the big crime syndicates in the 80s when it was tough to do so.  They were bleeding the city dry, and Rudy came along and cleaned it up, especially going after the Gambino crime family.  Rudy knew what organized crime was and knew it early on with Joe Biden, which all turned out to be true.  Rudy was the first one to get his hands on the Biden Laptop from Hell, and he was all over the election fraud from 2020, at a time when no lawyers in the country dared to come to Trump’s defense.  Rudy was there, and his fight for justice has cost him dearly, as the BAR has taken away his law license for defending Trump, bankrupted him in court for questioning election fraud, and destroyed a reputation it took a lifetime of good work to build.  Over the last four years, they have left Rudy Guiliani, the great crime-fighting mayor, destroyed in every way except the one that counts most.  They have not destroyed his spirit.  Instead, Rudy, under a vicious attack from government mobsters, sat down and wrote a book about why the Biden crime family should be prosecuted, and he played it all out for any court of law to get their minds around.  And the book came out just before the 2024 election, at the end of October.

The book was published by WarRoom Books, which is Steve Bannon’s group that runs the very famous podcast, and I would recommend it to anyone.  It’s called The Biden Crime Family: A Blueprint for Their Prosecution, and it’s a good read that is important for our times.  My first statement about the book and why I got it was to put some money back in Rudy’s pocket.  He more than deserves it.  He was nearly destroyed trying to do the right thing.  I’ve spent many hours explaining to people why and how the mob elements of our society moved into government, and this case against Rudy is more than just political activism.  It’s revenge because Rudy was successful in putting away crime families.  The Biden’s know the type of people they have feared most, so using government power stolen through massive election fraud, they went after one of their enemies that was most threatening to them, and they sought to utterly destroy him and Trump.  And anybody connected to Trump directly or indirectly.  And just to rewind the tape, that was the case up to the assassination attempt of Trump in Pennsylvania during the summer of 2024.  When the bullet missed Trump, the country rallied behind him, and the tables suddenly turned in a different direction.  By then, this book was written.  Trump won the election.  Many people are inclined to let Biden go off into a corner and hide from the world for the rest of his life, which is about five more minutes based on how he looks and acts.  Most people have a sentiment to move on from the nightmare that was the Biden administration and the Democrats who ran him in the background, like Barack Obama.  Americans tend to live and let live.  But I would caution against that action because the Biden crime family committed significant crimes, and they have to be punished. 

The crimes were influence peddling, and many people in government still do it.  Biden started selling off influence using his family as a broker when he was a senator.  He was the check valve for the Obama radical that Democrats used to keep the system intact at the time.  But most of those in government at that time and some in the present have been selling influence to those willing to buy it essentially since the start of our republic.  And the Biden crime family has been one of the worst, operating essentially the same way crime syndicates did.  And the evidence is all over the Biden laptop, which the FBI purposefully kept from the public, just as they did Anthony Wiener’s laptop and all the deleted emails of Hillary Clinton.  When organized crime moves into your government positions, you have a big problem, and we certainly did.  Joe Biden, with his son Hunter, sold direct influence to foreign actors while he was Vice President.  That went on while he was president, and the family used Joe as their primary revenue stream.  People worldwide would essentially pay for access to the White House, which went on for more than 12 years.  But that’s not all.  In Rudy’s book, he chronicles what the Biden family knows about Joe Biden’s diagnosed dementia, which is a significant security risk.  But through their fear of losing their money racket of influence peddling, they have tried to keep that from the public, which is a serious case of elder abuse.  The knowing mistreatment of an old man and concealing the condition from the public to avoid questions of security compromises is highly illegal and very serious stuff.

And we can’t forget what was done; we certainly can’t forgive.  We might want to move on, but this criminal government tried hard to destroy anybody who stood in their way, especially Rudy Guiliani.  And they can’t be allowed to get away with it.  Rudy deserves to have his reputation completely restored; he needs to be able to practice law unrestricted, and the Biden crime family needs to be punished as an example for others doing the same thing.  The lack of desire to avenge the Biden family is because most other politicians around Joe Biden are doing the same thing.  How else could they have become wealthy while their primary income was in public office?  It has been a dirty game.  We are cleaning it up with a freshly elected Trump administration that has earned the right to reform this criminal-oriented government completely.  But we can’t go soft on the old man because he was just the figurehead.  There are a lot of characters in the background who used Joe Biden to do their dirty work, and they need to pay for their crimes.  To live in a law and order society, you must punish criminal activity aggressively.  And there is no bigger target presently than the Biden crime family.  Many evil people are watching and seeing what we do about it now that we know.  Rudy wrote out the case with great clarity in his book for more reasons than well-deserved revenge for all that has been done to him.  It’s out of a sense of justice that he wrote that book.  And one that people should read and act on so that it never happens again.

Why Trump Won: Brand building is the key to establishing and maintaining relationships

So many important lessons can be learned from the Trump election of 2024.  But, the reason Trump won has yet to be talked about much.  The assumption is that Elon Musk came in at the last minute, after the assassination attempt in July, and put many millions of dollars into Trump’s campaign as the world’s richest man.  But to assume that, you would have to believe that money wins elections and that those who raise the most money and spend it will win the election.  Of course, the media, which sells ads and makes its money off politics during elections, wants everyone to think that.  But it wasn’t true.  Kamala Harris spent on her 2024 campaign 1.5 billion dollars and ended up, at the end of it, millions of dollars in debt.  She spent more than she had, which was a lot.  Who in their right mind gave her money who had that kind of money?  I could have told them they were wasting their time.  Wait, come to think of it, I did tell them.  But they didn’t listen.  Reports say that Trump spent much less than that, hovering around the 1 billion dollar mark, which is what many think it takes to run for president these days, but I’m not even sure that is the case.  But the bottom line is that Kamala spent a lot of money and didn’t move the needle in any kind of positive direction.  So why?  That’s the most critical question.  If Trump and Kamala spent even more money, why did the money spent work more for one, not the other?  So you can’t say that Elon Musk bought Trump the election, that would not be accurate. Instead, something much more important happened, and Trump did a masterful job at it, as we would all expect. 

A person’s brand is one of the most essential attributes of their personality; it’s how people come to know you and what they think of you when you aren’t around them anymore.  In everything you do in life, you must build your brand and use it to gain cooperation from your peers.  I have a very strong brand presence on many fronts.  For instance, I was having a fancy dinner with many people with strong opinions about my brand.  We were all ordering dessert, and the people with us at this dinner were from all over the world.  So I ordered a cake with many special effects to demonstrate how extraordinary the desserts were at this dinner and encourage our guests to be a little daring.  After all, I figured my brand was so good that I could handle a little wildness.  So I ordered a special cake, which came out with dry ice spewing everywhere. A tree made of cotton candy came out on top of it.  Those combinations of things made my dinner guests laugh because of the contrasts.  They were not very “manly” things to do and seemed like something they would never expect coming from me.  But that’s also why the Trump Dance works for Trump at rallies; it contrasts his tough guy image.  That image is his brand, and it’s how people learn the nature of the values of the advocate.  Without a brand image to maintain, my ordering the cake and the reaction to it would have just been about food.  But I made it into something else to advance why we were having the dinner together in the first place, as a team-building event that people would not soon forget. 

Trump has been one of the best in the world at building and applying brands.  His family name, Trump, is recognized worldwide and establishes quality and luxury for those who see it.  Trump built the brand over a long period and, about ten years ago, decided to use it to put America on its back and to Make America Great Again.  When people saw the Trump Brand anywhere in the 80s and 90s, they think of wealth and luxury, which is a way for Trump to take The Power of Positive Thinking and apply it to wealth generation.  So when Trump decided to run for office in 2015, he just brought his brand with him and beat Hillary Clinton based on the strength of his brand, as he spent a fraction of the money most campaigns would to win such a high office.  When he disrupted the system and everyone in the world came after him, Trump used his brand to rise above the critics in a way only his extensive, positive brand would have allowed.  Like my story about the cake, if you have a strong brand, you can provoke much action that either supports or contrasts it.  For my dinner guests, expecting an uncompromising gunslinger to shoot anybody who does injustice is a sharp contrast to sitting there eating a chocolate cake with pink cotton candy all over the top.  Showing such a moment of comparison within my brand earns trust because it contrasts my customary behavior.  But without the brand, there wouldn’t be any opinions or jokes to evolve a dialogue of trust that was needed for such a moment.  On a much larger scale, Trump used his brand to carry the lofty goal of Making America Great Again into a value system people felt they could invest in.  And they did.

One of my favorite campaign items from the 2024 election is a Trump 2024 switchblade.  I obtained it under unusual conditions, and it was undoubtedly one of the best souvenirs of Trump I had ever seen during the election.  Trump’s name was on everything, from knives to hats to shirts, flags, glasses, anything and everything.  And that was because Trump had built a brand that gave value to obtaining those items.  That Trump knife would be just another knife if it didn’t have Trump 2024 written on it.  On the other hand, Kamala spent a lot more money trying to create an impression, but her brand didn’t have roots in which people could invest.  So, as she tried to make an impression on voters, she did not have a brand that people could understand and invest in.  Nobody was rushing out to buy a Harris hat or shirt.  But people were flocking to buy a Trump hat.  They couldn’t make enough of them.  And in the end, that is what ended up mattering most.  Even though Elon Musk spent hundreds of millions of dollars on the MAGA movement and Trump himself, it was Trump who built a brand worth investing in.  Without the brand, the money was tossed to the wind like drunk gamblers in a casino late at night. The brand allows people to invest in the person who built it, for better or worse.  But once you have the brand, you can use it to sell ideas to people who have enough rooting to grab on and take action.  And the Democrats, they didn’t do any of that.  They tried to create impressions but had no substance behind their brand to sell an idea.  That caused them to toss much money at the effort only to have it wasted because there was no brand worth investing in.  So the ideas that Democrats had couldn’t be sold to a public so empty that they’d buy any impression.  When it came to Trump, people bought into a brand he had built for over 4 decades, and he put it all at risk to become president.  And as a result, the brand outlasted the attempts to destroy it.  Now, with that brand value, America can do as Trump’s brand indicates: to Make America Great Again.  When people see that term, they think of quality, wealth, and tenacity.  And the nation can rally to the cause because a brand can sell the idea and sustain the results.  Rather than just creating more false impressions that people have become long weary of.  And this will be the case for politics over the coming century.  It’s not enough to spend money. Instead, the money has to have a brand that people want to invest in and make it their own.

We Need More Kids: Birthrates need to increase dramatically

I haven’t let myself get too encouraged by Elon Musk’s “Occupy Mars” campaign.  He’s been excited about it for more than three decades now, and he has made himself a multi-billionaire, with the projection to become the first trillionaire not for the love of money and fame that comes with such enterprises but simply because he wants to bring science fiction, that he loved as a kid, to reality through engineering excellence.  I didn’t think he had much chance until this last election, and I’m glad he did what he had to do to see his vision through.  It wasn’t enough to be one of the world’s greatest inventors.  I remember the stories of Edison, who was incredibly late in life trying to solve the riddle of manufacturing rubber for the upcoming car industry, which was a real problem.  What Edison never solved was the politics of the matter.  And, of course, Edison’s employee, Tesla, had all kinds of great ideas about energy and how it could be distributed.  Edison’s method won out because it required infrastructure, the government could manage it, and unionized employees could stick themselves right in the middle of the whole thing and give us the uninventive mess we have today.  Seldom do good ideas break through to the kinds of frontiers that Elom Musk is about to enjoy because he moved his politics toward the winning Trump administration, which is about to unload on the world all the best that science fiction could give us.  A significant boom to the aerospace markets for which SpaceX will be able to do all it ever thought about and more.  Suddenly, going to Mars and colonizing it is very viable, with real economic value coming directly from it, and it will all be very exciting.  I’m officially a major supporter of the Occupy Mars movement.  It is the most exciting thing we can do as human beings.

But a math problem has been at the heart of all our politics for centuries now.  The responsibility for adventure or the sacrifice to higher powers is at the heart of earth worship.  So, our next technical objective to overcome is not the engineering feats of getting to Mars, colonizing it, and terraforming the planet to restore it to a vibrant place that was likely full of life.  The problem now is with human beings being able to wrap their minds around the whole effort, and for that, I have found myself obsessed with reexamining King Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem and studying all the vast tunnels under the city and understanding the importance of the most contested piece of real estate on planet earth.  Because I’m one of those people who think the evidence all adds up to Jerusalem being necessary to the seeding of Earth from a distant point in history, more than 10,000 years ago, and the cave under the Holy of Holies which is now concealed by the Dome of the Rock under Islam control was there long before Abraham went to that spot to kill his son Isaac in a sacrifice to God.  I think we are about to make a series of earth-shattering discoveries that date many of these things to much longer than we typically measure them, and the ramifications will indeed be jarring to all involved.  That’s all part of the adventure.  Because what’s important here is at the heart of most of the world’s problems, do you advance life through sacrifice, as they did at that Temple?  Or do you advance life through science and thought?  The new incoming Trump administration will rule through thought.  He, Trump, has been given a divine mandate to fight back against the forces of evil that have held back the human race for many thousands of years.  And it’s going to get untangled over this next Trump term. 

That leaves us to talk about birthrates.  We have needed them to increase for several years.  We have a culture that has openly sought to cheapen life, to kill their babies much the way the ancient Canaanites did to their Mesopotamian Gods, especially Baal, who is the real villain of the Bible.  Baal, the dominating god of nature, is in constant combat with Yahweh, the God of the Hebrew people and author of the Ten Commandments.  One group wanted to kill their kids to prop up the sentiment to their deity of choice, the nature-worshipping cultures of Baal or the self-fulfilling, creative cultures of Yahweh.  We need many more children on Earth to migrate human beings into space, and that is considering the massive amount of AI that will be required.  We are talking about the plot of the movie Blade Runner here, the morality of the nature of life itself, and whether or not robots will have human rights as a form of intelligence.  These are significant issues, but the bottom line is that if we want to put 1 million people on Mars by the very near date of 2050, which we do, just 25 years from now, then we have to change a lot of our life policies from what they have been to what they need to be.  We need many more families having many more kids than they have been, and they need to have fun doing it. 

We need to get back to the birthrates of the past, where families often had five or more kids all the time.  My grandparents lived during such a time.  My grandmother was a twin, and her mom had so many kids that they traded them like baseball cards.  “Hey, I have an extra one of these. Do you want one.”  A family member took her brother because my grandmother’s family had way more kids than they could afford to take care of themselves.  Some of these families had more than ten kids each.  This kind of Western expansion mentality is essential to human growth stages, and we need to exceed even that in the next few years to expand human life into space the way we need to.  Depressing that ambition is simply a held sentiment to the old Baal worship of the Canaanites and other sacrificial cultures around the world.  Our low birthrates of today are caused by social sentiment toward earth worship, to keep humans attached to their mother, and not to grow up healthy and independent as a culture of adventurers.  But to cleave close to mother in an unhealthy way that stifles us permanently, and ultimately destroys our species for the good of the planet, and views humans as a virus upon that mother which needs to be destroyed.  Ultimately, human growth into space is to settle that long-residing dispute in Jerusalem. Do we kill our kids to sever the jealous whims of a broken-minded deity, or do we have lots of kids and treasure them all as representatives of human consciousness and the perpetuation of the creative spirit of humanity into everlasting life born from the earth, but to settle the cosmos on a series of many adventures that was the point all along.  And to that, I say, “Occupy Mars!”

Jill Biden Has Eyes For Trump: What could have been if only she had the courage

For good reason, there has been a lot of talk about that picture with Jill Biden and Trump at Notre Dame.  With her daughter, Ashley Biden, sitting next to her, the camera caught a moment that Jill revealed a lot in just a look.  And wonderfully, Trump turned it into a new body fragrance ad.  But there is a lot to talk about that is essential here.  Here was Jill Biden, an older woman now, with a daughter who had been sexually abused by her father, gazing at a man who was authentic and unlike anything they had ever met; even though, as First Lady, she had met some of the world’s most brilliant and influential people.  There was nobody in her life like Trump—a conqueror who had defeated her husband in the last election.  Being close to the same age, Biden seemed so much older, whereas Trump was almost childlike, and ambitious.  That look by Jill to Trump, who was sitting next to her at the re-opening of the Notre Dame cathedral, has the kind of flirty look that a 4th-grade girl might have before her first kiss.  Many wonder why that was and what she would see in Trump to provoke such a gaze.  And is it that rare in the world for political enemies to put aside their differences for just a minute and enjoy each other?  The answer is obviously “yes,” but it brings up something that is a long and desperate yearning in the human race, and that is the female quest for the best that they can get as a sexual partner based on the fantasies of attraction, which everyone is hard-wired for.  Yet life and its quality come down to a person’s choices, and women often find themselves victims of bad decisions.  And even after a lifetime of them, that innocent girlish smile of first experiences never gets old.

Like many women, Jill Biden had men come and go in her life.  It is entirely possible that she had never met a person like Trump.  There are other men like Trump in the world, very confident, self-assured people who are conquerors in their own right over their destinies, and women tend to love such men for all that they can be and to fulfill the fantasy of using sexual power to have a relationship with one.  But often, it takes personal courage to even entertain such an antisocial relationship, because the rules of society are meant to favor the losers of the world.  And for men, many of our social rules have come about with the expectation that it would allow them to be louses and perform poorly in the world.  So, when a woman meets a man who does not function from such rules, she is going to feel the joy of such elation even if she has been associating with the world’s top people from a social perspective and has acquired the highest social status that a human being could ever hope for.  And it’s highly likely, because of her terrible choices throughout her life, that she had never met a man like Trump.  Because it takes courage to do so, and most women turn away from those opportunities early in their life, yielding to the pressures of social acceptance.  As sad as it is, loser husbands like Joe Biden, who took inappropriate showers with his daughter, and permanently damaged her psychologically, are expected in this world.  Probably because of the kind of social circles that Jill Biden functioned in her entire life, she only met men who would do such a thing and think it okay.

Trump, on the other hand, has had to learn how to beat down all the female advances that come his way.  And it took most of his life to learn to do so.  But yes, when you are an unconquered spirit, you are the fantasy of almost every woman, and that is a power that must be managed carefully.  It can be very tempting to yield to every whim for the affections of a woman who wants to make a lasting impression for a night, a day, a week, or years.  It’s a primal passion that comes from more than just smelling good.  But Trump understands the power of a picture like that and has smartly had fun with it to take the edge off reality, “Buy my new cologne, Fight, Fight, and it will win over your enemies.”  But the truth is that Jill was thinking about all the losers in her life and was wondering if she could even taste such a man for a fleeting second with her husband gone in an exciting city at a place of history, even at her age.  Turn off the cameras.  Get a room someplace.  Could she have such a moment with an unconquered man?  A man who had the entire world try to destroy him, and he bravely brushed away all the danger to sit there next to her, a hero, the most admired man in the world.  And the most hated.  Yet he didn’t feel the pressure to yield to the hate.  Oh, what a look Jill Biden let loose in front of her sexually abused daughter, an abused country, and a world under the thumb of tyranny to think of stealing away a kiss while his wife was not with him. 

It’s not like this would be the first time with Jill.  She left her first husband after he wrote Joe Biden one of his first campaign checks for elected office.  Like most women who find they can use sex to gain power, she jumped from one man to another because Joe looked like he was going to be a winner.  He drove sports cars and was rising in politics, so she left her husband and ran off with Joe.  And likely, she has thought of doing the same thing with many other men over the years.  As a result, she has only known evil men her entire life and never met someone like Trump until that moment in Notre Dame.  And like the long-repressed school girl wondering if the guy she liked might kiss her and that her entire life might be changed at that moment, she joined the millions of other women who have made the same dumb mistakes, and that was to join with just another, average, loser man.  Joe Biden was President of the United States.  He was head of a crime family that sold influence with elected office, going back to selling his office as a senator and Vice President.  But to Jill, he was just another used-up, broken man falling asleep on the beach, waiting to die.  And there was Trump, full of life.  He had beautiful things around him and had the world dancing to his every move. Yeah, she wanted to kiss him. To run away with him.  To undo all her life’s missteps and throw them away for just a moment of impropriety with Trump.  And she couldn’t hide the thought from her face.   Many women secretly go through the same process.  They look on the couch and see their beat-up, lazy husbands hiding behind the feminist movement because they are too lazy to be good.  They become victims to the times and then declare that the day’s fashion is to yield to their women and do whatever they say.  But Trump is his own man, and a few others out there think the same way.  And most women, in some way, wish they could access one.  But most, especially Jill Biden, never had the courage to go on such an adventure in her youth.  And now, as an older woman with all the best things in her life behind her, she could only wonder what could have been.

The Lion King Goes to Notre Dame: Deposing the global villians and restoring a king

I was very excited to see President Trump represent America at the re-opening of the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris.  I have a personal relationship with that cathedral, and I wasn’t sure if I’d ever get to see it again.  When it was burnt down by what we now know were radical Islamic terrorists, not an electrical short as we had been told, I was furious because I had just gone on a trip there with my family to visit the historical site, and we witnessed up close and personal just how radicalized Paris had become as we walked the distance from the train station speed train from London through all the neighborhoods to the historic site.  We saw the radicalism up close, so it was no surprise that a year after we visited, Notre Dame, like several other catholic churches, was burnt to the ground over a holy war provoked by some of the world’s worst characters barely concealed behind polite society.  I had been following the restoration of the cathedral closely, and when Trump won the election and it was reported that he would be attending the re-opening, it was more than satisfying considering all that had happened.  But as I watched him arrive and take his seat, with all eyes upon him, spying a gaze upon the world’s most powerful person, I couldn’t help but think of a couple of popular Disney movies for the context of what we were seeing.  Usually, when he is thought about, Trump is considered a lion more than an elephant of the Republican party.  So Simba from The Lion King came to mind as the only proper reference.  Then, of course, there are the various Hunchback of Notre Dame movies that are so much a part of our entertainment culture.  But the way the world looked at Trump at that event was like a king returned very much following the plot of The Lion King, and suddenly Trump was there, as was a restored representation of Western civilization.  And it was very satisfying.

I had been very vocal when the cathedral was burnt down. I made my opinion public with written articles and told anybody who wanted to listen or interview me, what I thought.  My family visited in 2017, and we bonded with the place historically. I felt the attack was a personal affront to me and Western civilization as a whole.  And I got into a lot of trouble professionally over the Notre Dame incident.  Several people went for my jugular because they thought the world was going to become a progressive monstrosity and that they were going to cancel culture me out of existence for insisting that radical Islamic terrorists were responsible for the violence in Paris.  After all, we had seen it firsthand.  As a family, we walked over 15 miles all over Paris, so we weren’t reporting helicopter opinions about the place.  But those were the early stages of woke cancel culture, and it was stunning that I was made a target over saying the obvious, and that didn’t go over well.  My anger was further entrenched.  Of course, I survived it all, and the people who did all they did to me are no longer around, and I can only say they did it to themselves.  I tried to warn them, but they didn’t listen.  When you play hardball, the ball hurts when you get hit with it, and I threw it back with some juice.  However, like the Lion King movie and famous stage play, which I have seen many times, Trump was a character very similar to Simba and would soon be cast out as an exile.

Before we visited Notre Dame, back in London, there were protests against Trump outside of Parliament by Big Ben, and the world was seeking to overthrow President Trump’s American influence over globalism.  We would, of course, watch over the next few years as the American-lettered agencies working with scandalous characters on the world stage plotted the demise of President Trump and threw him out of office with the same kind of flair that Scar killed the father Mufasa in The Lion King to the now famous soundtrack of Hans Zimmer, to theatrical effect.  With one of the great symbols of Western civilization destroyed and an American president overthrown through massive election fraud, things were not looking good in the world.  And we all know the story of The Lion King, as Scar took over the tribe, represented here by Joe Biden and his band of globalist insurgents and Chinese connections, things went downhill quickly.  The world started drowning in inflation and terrifying woke policies.  And all look hopeless for a long time.  But like The Lion King, the castaway exile, Simba learned to be a king, and eventually, he would return and depose Scar and get revenge for what had happened to his tribe. And the return would be triumphant and celebrated, just as it was when Trump returned to the fully restored Notre Dame cathedral.  The cathedral and the American presidency had been targeted for attack and destruction as the enemies of the world plotting the doom of Western civilization itself with diabolical plots of evil and mayhem.  And like Scar, they thought they had won the throne forever.  But those dreams shattered once the king returned.

There were periods over the last few years when I thought we’d never see anything good again.  After the burning down of Notre Dame and the way many progressive elements, already significantly entrenched in the United States, were behaving towards a progressive plot over the demise of all Western civilization, I figured it was all coming to an end.  I remember thinking at a checkpoint during Covid, where I was fully ready for a shootout with authorities over an unconstitutional search and seizure event, that this was how it all ended.  Luckily, when I told the authorities that they were smoking crack if they thought what they were doing was legal, they didn’t push it because they knew they were in the wrong during the Covid lockdowns.  And nobody had to draw guns and fire at each other.  But it got close.  I was the only one on the roads for about three weeks in March of 2021, and I had decided I wouldn’t put up with Scar running the world I was living in.  Like Rafiki in The Lion King, I cheered on the king’s return as the best solution, and that is precisely what happened.  And Trump made a triumphant return to Notre Dame as the world who plotted the demise of him and all of us looked on with sudden admiration.  Trump was the celebrity the world wanted, even the bad guys, and it took all this for them to realize it.  And suddenly, the King returned from exile, and the great cathedral was restored. Then, the world looked a whole lot better.  Happy endings are real, and that Notre Dame event was proof of it. As scary as it was, we’ve seen it before in our fantasies, like the story of The Lion King.  We have all lived through it, being taken over by our version of Scar, the villain.  And the world suffered terribly while Simba was in exile.  But after a triumphant return, the world watched with happiness and gazed upon the king as he returned to lead Western civilization forward in ways nobody previously thought possible.  And the world was suddenly a much better place.

Kash Patel is the Only Way to Save the FBI: Power hungry, corrupt, and pretentious, government employees need checks on their authority

The FBI was a wasted effort for me a long time ago.  When it was announced that Kash Patel would be Trump’s nominee to direct it, I thought only he could do anything to save the institution from destruction.  After what they did to Trump and many of us over the last decade, there is no forgiving them for their government activism, and really, a terrible job done.  And it’s a problem that goes far beyond the FBI.  I know people who have been in the FBI, and their mentality is very similar to the kind of nonsense we saw with Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe when he was grilled in front of Congress recently over the terrible coverage of Trump during an assassination attempt.  To avoid criticism, he went on the attack and cited his coverage of 9/11 and tried to play the “Hammer Time” card, “can’t touch this” because I’m a patriot angle.  It was embarrassing, but it revealed the same kind of arrogance we saw from former FBI directors, such as James Comey.  When Trump fired Comey for many good reasons, I was part of a panel that CNN called to talk about it, and I remember the attitude of the time.  Here was Jim Comey, who had just let Hillary Clinton off criminal conviction for her abuse of a public office with her email scandal and destruction of evidence, who was spying on Trump’s campaign and going on a personal crusade to destroy General Flynn, because Trump’s people were new and didn’t know all the rules of conduct.  Comey inspired the FBI to go on a witch hunt against Trump that would go on for eight more years and personally attempt to destroy Trump in every way possible.  Comey led a coup against an American-picked president by a civilian government, and his attitude was just like Ronald Rowe’s.  I’m important.  I work for the government.  Don’t ever question me, or I will yell at you. 

Trump fired Comey for his actions against him and Flynn, and he put in a swamp creature to appease his critics, Christopher Wray, and the FBI only got worse.  Trump tried to play the game fairly, and the FBI, from top to bottom, had no intention of being fair back.  They had government power, and they were hell-bent to use it.  And if you questioned them, you might be next for harassment.  And that’s what the CNN producers told me after we shot a spot for Anderson Cooper in the parking lot after I said what I said on the air about Comey after the first year of Trump’s first term.  It was apparent to me what was going on.  This was an out-of-control FBI, and Trump had just fired Comey, and the question at the time was whether Trump could have, or should have done so, based on the evidence at that time.  I used my usual velvet hammer response to talk about essentially a problematic subject matter when they asked me on the air if Comey had lied about his activism against Trump.  I also said that Comey was more like the fiction writer Ian Flemming, the creator of James Bond.  There was more about Comey that was fiction than was factual.  And for that, the CNN people told me the FBI would target me for talking against them on national television.  Of course, I told them I didn’t care; there wasn’t much they could do to me that they hadn’t tried to do up to that point.  I didn’t arrive at my conclusions about Trump recently, but I had a lot of experience with the FBI leading up to that point, and I thought I was being very nice about it.  All things considered.

But since then, the FBI has led the efforts to destroy Trump and his members of the former White House, especially Rudy Giuliani, Steve Bannon, and Peter Navarro.  All of them were good men, and as I told everyone several years ago, Trump would put them back into his second term in the White House.  Fewer good people pursue justice than Rudy Giuliani, who was personally ruined by the Joe Biden White House.  Rudy had the now-famous laptop from Hell that had all the dirt on the Biden crime family, and the FBI tried to cover up that evidence with personal destruction against the guy who had the evidence.  I have watched the FBI many times over the years destroy evidence to drive a political narrative, and I have next to no trust in any of them at this point.  I always think of the Christmas shooting in San Bernadino by a radical Islamic couple as one of the worst examples in American history of an FBI coverup.  Right after the killings, and the couple who performed the acts of terrorism had just been killed, the FBI let the media into the couple’s apartment under cover of “full disclosure” and protecting the 1st Amendment.  But in reality, it was the purposeful destruction of a crime scene by letting the press ultimately contaminate the scene so nobody would learn anything about the terrorists.  I would say most of what the FBI does wrong is purposeful, such as not asking the following next layer questions when the terrorists of 9/11 wanted to learn how to fly planes from a Florida instructor, not to land them.  When you try to pin them down with criticism, they get all emotional and try to play a patriot card, just like that loser Ronald Rowe did.  They try to intimidate away criticism so nobody dares to question their lofty power in Washington, D.C. 

Kash Patel, who had the highest security clearance in government and was a great guy under Trump’s first administration, wrote the excellent book Government Gangsters and was all over the movie Police State.  I think the FBI, in its current form, is more dangerous than open terrorist organizations.  We would be better off without the CIA and FBI most of the time because they have become so corrupt and power-hungry.  Just reviewing the FISA warrant process that they abused against Trump shows the playbook they’d use against any of us to harass us over political disagreements.  Then, when they raided Mar-a-Lago in an attempt to knock off President Trump before he ever had a chance to return to the White House under a legitimate election, give me a break.  The FBI should be dismantled.   The only way to save it, and I mean the only way, is to put someone like Kash Patel in charge of it.  And the people who caused all this trouble don’t get a vote.  We aren’t going to be pushed around by losers like the Secret Service Director or James Comey, who was far more interested in wine tasting than rule of law ethics.  Comey showed himself to be a protector of Democrat Beltway politics at the expense of justice.  And those who came before and after him were no better.  So there isn’t anything to preserve.  Anybody who wants to try to make the FBI work properly would do well to get behind Kash Patel and support him without radicalism.  And be happy that he’s not as evil as most government employees are, self-centered, and corrupt beyond recognition.  I was always right about them, even when CNN pressed me in front of many people.  And I said it as politely as possible, but it doesn’t change the fact that we have never been able to trust the FBI with the kind of power they have had.  And it’s time for them to pay for the abuse of that power so the country can survive.

Why DEI Was Always a Dumb Idea: What we learned from the Swordsman Scene in ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’

I really loved the book about Howard Kazanjian called A Producer’s Life.  I’ve referenced it many times over the last several weeks because it was an enjoyable book.  It’s the most fun I’ve had reading a book in a while, and it is one that I promised myself I’d read if Trump was re-elected into the White House.  I wouldn’t let myself think about these kinds of things as what is in Howard’s book prior, even if I do love the topic.  For a large part of my life, I wanted to be a filmmaker, and Hollywood producers like Howard Kazanjian were the kind of people who inspired me.  He produced most of my favorite movies from a key period, when he was on top of the Hollywood pile with Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and many others, with films from 1975 until 1982.   Howard was always good, but if you are trending good movies and who made them over the entire history of Hollywood, this specific period set the stage for what the industry would become, and mean to the world as a whole regarding entertainment.  So, I find it very interesting to study what went right and wrong during this period.  Ironically, learning these things is precisely why understanding DEI policies and why they failed is important.  Because currently, after the Trump election and his spectacular victory, the world is giving up on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs, and rightfully so.  We’re not talking about a Republican versus Democrat position here; Howard Kazanjian, I would say, probably leans toward Hollywood liberalism and likely wanted Kamala Harris to win the election.  But with Trump back in office, the world is a lot better, and I have more tolerance for people who are not so bright on political matters.  Which is why I couldn’t let myself read a book like this before the election. 

In that book, I read a good illustrative example of why DEI failed and why companies needed to get rid of it for the sake of everyone.  Picking employees based on their skin color or assuming they are equal to other people and that they should be included in something just because they exist was always ridiculous.  Some people are better than others, and if you want something to be good, you have to find the best people and put them in place; that’s good management.  And in the movie business, good people are few and far between.  But Howard Kazanjian, during that period I mentioned, found a way to be around the best people in the business, and specifically, a conversation I had never heard about regarding the famous swordsman scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark, being filmed in 1980 for a 1981 release.  Everyone, no matter who they are, knows the scene.  Indiana Jones is looking for his lost girlfriend, Marian, who the Nazis have captured on the streets of Cairo.  And he has to stop them with a glorious shootout with lots of explosions and good stuff.  Along the way, Indiana Jones is stopped by an Arab swordsman who wants to fight.  But the hero doesn’t have time for it.  What does he do?   People remember with great recollection that Indy pulls out his gun, shoots the villain on the spot with no fanfare, and gets back to looking for his girlfriend.  In all the documentaries of how that movie was made, we learned that Harrison Ford was sick that day and just did the scene as a joke because there was supposed to be a fight with bullwhips that was very elaborate, and the whole crew was sick of filming take after take.  When Spielberg saw what Harrison Ford did, he wanted to keep it as a new version and print it for the film.  But there was more to the story I heard in this book on Howard Kazanjian for the first time.

George Lucas still wanted his bullwhip fight scene.  One of the reasons he was making Raiders of the Lost Ark as the executive producer was to create a modern version of the kind of movies he liked as a kid, and he wanted a classic bullwhip fight like might have been in Don Q Son of Zorro, or Zorro’s Fighting Legion.  And he wasn’t convinced that just having Indiana Jones shoot the bad guy and get on with his business was the right thing to do.  So, here were the most talented filmmakers in movie-making history who disagreed with this famous scene.  So what were they going to do?  George Lucas decided to run two film versions by a test audience, one Spielberg’s way, the other with the bullwhip fight.  They were going to let market desire determine the film’s final version.  So they played George’s version first to a test audience.  People came out of the movie liking it, and Paramount Pictures felt they had a hit.  It was a good movie.  But when Spielberg’s version was seen, people applauded when Indiana Jones shot the swordsman.  And it became everyone’s favorite moment in the movie, even after all these years.  They made 5 Indiana Jones films over the next 40 years, but none would ever have a better moment than that one to mass audiences. 

Ultimately, even with all the talent of all these people involved, it was the marketplace that picked the scene. The filmmakers came up with ideas, but to determine the success of the enterprise, they tested the waters with market analysis. The audience clearly picked one version over the other, and the rest is filmmaking history.  Presently, they are test-screening the new Captain America movie for Disney, and it is going through all kinds of trouble because nothing is working.  The film is filled with a bunch of woke politics, and people don’t like it.  It’s going to bomb when it hits theaters in February.  Ultimately, that is why DEI programs destroyed market share and value for all companies, from cookie makers to high-tech offerings.  DEI was an imposed value put on the marketplace that would have been similar to George Lucas keeping his whip fight in the movie because he wanted it, to force the audience to like it because he did.  Instead of listening to them, which is what happened.  When companies try to impose themselves on the public and force values on them that they don’t have, failure is almost assured.  However, when products appeal to the audience’s sentiment, great success is possible.  It is rare because good ideas are complex, and companies often hang on to them even if the market pressure rejects them.  Only to plot an enterprise to its doom.  But when we say that getting rid of DEI suits all businesses everywhere, this is what we mean and why.  In capitalism, value serves the marketplace.  In authoritarian governments, values are imposed, and a monopoly status is sought that limits the viability of options.  And the world is far worse off because of it.  The best example of why some ideas work over other ideas can sometimes come from interesting places, which is undoubtedly the case with a movie most people agree has some value to them over time, and that is how Indiana Jones was created in that old classic movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark

The Rejection of Freakshow Politics: Democrats had Joe Rogan, and they lost him because they had terrible messaging

There is a lot of talk by Democrats about what could have been in their messaging that could have caused them to win during this last election cycle.  And with Hunter Biden getting his pardon, one that everyone saw coming, there is a belief that he, or some other Democrat, could run a podcast to compete with Joe Rogan and that if only they had someone as popular on the left, they could sell their message.  Well, here’s the deal: Democrats lost because they made themselves the “Freakshow Party,” the political party of broken toys from Misfit Island, and their messaging was terrible.  When Biden was given power by a rigged election provoked by a manufactured Covid virus released from a lab in China to cause a coup in the United States, the first thing he did was put a gay guy like Major Pete on his cabinet and Ralph Levine for Assistant Secretary for Health and Head of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corps as well as Health and Human Services, as a crossdresser right out of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.  Biden’s people were caught having gay sex and filming it in public buildings, and they fully expected to shut down anybody’s negative opinions on the matter, forcing many to count down the days until these losers were voted out of office.  And a lot of people couldn’t wait to vote against the Biden administration because of the Freakshow they put on and expected everyone to accept.  No amount of any podcast could justify the audaciousness of how Democrats positioned themselves for the 2024 election.  They can’t sell something to people that they don’t want to buy, and that is apparently new news to them.  But they should have listened because I have been telling them that for a long time. 

As to Joe Rogan, they had him.  I’ve said about Joe Rogan that he was too liberal for me.  He voted for Biden and Obama and has only now been a Trump supporter.  The same with Elon Musk and many other Democrats who converted to the Republican Party in the wake of the assassination attempt against Trump in July of 2024.  I didn’t listen to the Joe Rogan podcast because he was a devoted Democrat, and I don’t have time in my life for people like that.  I only paid attention to him because he was moving toward Trump in the closing days of the 2024 election. After all, the Democrats were so embarrassing.  So, if the Republican Party was going to go into a big tent party, I was happy to hold open the flap to that tent to fill it with as many people as possible.  But this notion that if only Democrats had their version of Joe Rogan is ridiculous.  Because they had him.  As well as owning most of the media culture that there is.  People turned away from Democrats because they became the party of the Freakshow; they abused their relationship with everyday people to such an extent that they pushed people away.  And that is something they didn’t think would happen.  When people like AOC in Congress seem normal and rational, the Democrats have a big problem, and people are going to turn away from them just by association.  Democrats thought they could abuse their relationship with people, just as most corporations these days also believe because they feel like communists who can live in a bubble without competitive ideas to challenge them and come to the conclusions within their little world that they are all there is. 

They should have seen the writing on the wall when they mistreated their people, like Musk and Joe Rogan, for being critical of the Democrat party when they should have been listening.   With Rogan, the political left tried to cancel culture him for doing a podcast where anti-vaxers were on to talk about COVID-19, and the left tried to damage Rogan’s deal with Spotify.  I can tell everyone here that I went through all kinds of problems, especially with Spotify and YouTube, so I can understand Rogan’s situation because he had real money at stake in the protests.  But it was essentially an anti-free speech message that Democrats had, their modern version of the Berlin Wall.  Communists cannot afford competition with capitalist markets, and ultimately, when you have the wealthiest guy in the world on your side, but you are attacking the kind of world that made him rich in the first place, you are setting yourself up for a significant loss.  Elon Musk pays more taxes than any person on planet Earth, and Democrats just kept asking for more.  It’s like a husband who continues to keep cheating on his wife, and she stays with him for as long as she can take it, then decides one day, no more.  And she finally leaves.  And she should go if he’s not respecting her.  That’s what the Democrats did to their people, like Joe Rogan, Elon Musk, Robert Kennedy, Tulsi Gabbard, and many others.  There were a lot of Democrats, especially union members, who voted for Trump in this last election because the message was better from Republicans.  Democrats took it for granted that their platform was so powerful that they could shame people into voting for a Freakshow, a bunch of sexual deviants, and crack addicts with an addiction to all kinds of problems.  And presenting those kinds of people to the world was a winning strategy.

Ultimately, this problem is one I have been pointing out for a long time.  I write on this site because I know who reads it and why.  I do not write here for the ordinary, everyday person but for the influencers on the frontier of independent journalism, which is where all the action will be in the future.  Traditional media is dying.  Modern media platforms like Truth Social, Gettr, and Elon Musk’s “X” are the future, and the kind of competitive content out there will destroy a weak message.  So, I see my efforts as being very important to that process and an investment on my part to a better world.  For all those who aren’t sure what they can or can’t talk about, I provide a new way of thinking about it in a media culture increasingly driven by artificial intelligence.  And the Democrats showed a complete lack of respect for other people’s opinions over these last eight years, essentially since Trump entered office the first time.  In their desperation, they ran wildly in the other direction toward “freakshow” politics, such as the bearded lady at a carnival or the man with two heads.  And they scared off any fringy supporters they did have who were straddling the fine line between left-of-center politics and the right.  So they lost support because of their strategy, and giving Hunter Biden his own podcast would only accelerate their problems.  And that’s the thing: it is a free world; Hunter Biden could start his podcast tomorrow, just as anybody could.  But would anybody listen or pay attention?  I do it because people do pay attention and listen.  And I see the impact.  But who wants to listen to Hunter Biden?  Who cares about one thing that he says or does?  And how could a person like that move a political party toward success?  The answer is that they can’t, and that’s why Democrats lost.  They embraced the wrong strategy, which probably cost them their party.  As I always say, Democrats can’t win if they don’t cheat.  And that was certainly the case in 2024.  Where it was too big to rig, Democrats couldn’t win because they couldn’t cheat.  And they had no other strategy for winning because their messaging never respected voter opinions.  Only the guilt they could generate from their freakshow politics, which would always fail.
