In Politics Friends Come and Go: But why do political parties exist in the first place

When it comes to politics or anything in life, get a dog if you want a friend. Dogs are programmed to serve our human needs for friendship. But don’t expect friendships in politics ever to sustain some deep seeded need. There is only one purpose for politics, and that is the management of community resources. Finding meaning in it of some social value is a path in life that will obviously have many challenges, most of which will be unfulfilling. Even on the best day of political exchanges, there will be disappointments because it never works out how you might want it to. Yet one of the many traps that emerge in politics is when a person involved finds that they get to sit at the table with all the cool kids, which is how the lobby system works at the federal and state level. That appeal to be accepted by your peers can be very alluring. And all too often, it causes good people to go bad relative to what people think they voted for. This is how we end up with RINOs in the Republican Party. They may not start out that way, but they certainly turn out to be far off their original position over a number of years, and it’s at that point they have to figure out if they can still be useful to a voting public. But we are dealing with people here, and I can think of a few politicians that I have known for a long time and may personally like. But, due to life circumstances, they are not as conservative today as they were ten years ago or even five years ago. And when that happens, they have to figure out if they are in politics to serve some deep seeded need they have or if they are only doing it to gain some joy in social acceptance, presenting themselves one way, when ideologically, they have drifted into a more liberal view of the world. 

In politics, I still stand by former Speaker of the House Larry Householder, who was just sentenced to 20 years in prison over the FirstEnergy scandal. I found that case much like Sheriff Jones and Attorney General David Yost went after Roger Reynolds, the former Butler County Auditor. I feel sorry for the FirstEnergy people; they provide energy through a couple of nuclear power plants, and the political left is looking to destroy those companies and replace them with solar farms and wind power. I don’t think there was any justice in putting Householder in jail, I think its 100% politics, using rules to destroy your political rivals, and in that case, the FBI was weaponized just like it has been against Trump and the road to the start of the corruption leads to Mike DeWine’s door, the governor of Ohio who likely didn’t want a rival power in Columbus at the Speaker position. Look at the drama with the coup they had just this last year with the Speaker, so politics is a dirty game. People on the out go to jail, and millions of dollars get wasted in the name of acquiring power. I can say that as I just recently saw DeWine and his wife at a social event, and he’s turning back to his liberal ways again now that he’s in his last term and Trump hasn’t been in power for a while. And mentioning Sheriff Jones, you might remember all the drama between him and Representative Thomas Hall. They had been bitter enemies, but now they are getting along quite well. People move on positions all the time; the question always remains, can they actually do the public who votes for them any good, or is everything they show the public fake while what they do behind closed doors a different representation along the political spectrum? 

And that’s certainly the case of a few names within the Butler County Republican Party presently. Life happens, and people find that their political views of the world change, sometimes quite a lot. But when you hold leadership positions and hang on to those positions, why would they do it if they aren’t that conservative anymore? Politics is one thing, and it’s easy to have political opinions in a vacuum of reality, in an untested environment. But when you love your kids and the kids move in a direction that challenges those conservative beliefs, do you try to take the party to a hard left position, or do you give up the leadership roles to take care of your family? Loyalty isn’t the question, but it’s what is expected in public office that does matter. Because votes expect the brand of conservative opinion that reflects them, this is how the RINO problem began initially. I’ve been involved in many meetings where powerful politicians became upset with being called RINOs. Because they didn’t see that they had become more “liberal” in their political discourse. John Boehner, who lives in my neighborhood and is good friends with several people I know very well, comes to mind. He used to be Speaker of the House, but he had to resign due to heavy calls from people in the Tea Party who thought he was a RINO. It hurt him. I hurt for him, so I never really jumped all over him too much. The world wanted a more conservative representative, and he wasn’t it. So, he needed to step away. And that is certainly the case for other area Republicans who find themselves in a similar situation.

Doing the right thing is hard. But ultimately, politics isn’t for the representatives; it’s for the brand of the party, and the party exists for the people who vote. This fantasy that people have that Ron DeSantis might fill the void of Trump is ridiculous because the move toward Trump is because people have become frustrated with RINOs, and they are looking to purge them from their party. And the same thing will happen in the Butler County Republican Party if RINOs emerge and take leadership positions; the voters out there will work to get rid of them, just as they did John Boehner. There may be perfectly valid reasons that people become RINOs. John Boehner cries a lot, and once people learned that about him, it changed how they saw him. Voters want tough people, not compromised people who have lost their confidence socially, who have made mistakes that are embarrassing, and who seek to hide those things socially through party leadership. It ends up not helping anybody but worst of all; it weakens the voter impression of their Republican Party representation. The most important thing is to protect the brand, and forcing voters to accept more liberal leadership isn’t going to help engage voters in the polls. Telling Darbi Boddy to calm down and play nice with RINOs won’t help the party brand. It hurts it. Because people want more Darbi’s and fewer John Boehners. I’ve heard the complaints, and it’s a topic in need of perspective. Essentially, I do have friendships with people who have moved to the hard left. And I will still like them even if I disagree with them politically. But protecting the Republican brand should be something everyone can agree with. Sure, there will be political squabbles. But they come and go. In the end, what ultimately matters is whether voters have a party that represents them. And if they don’t, why does it exist in the first place?

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

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

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

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

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

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

The 4th of July is all About Defiance: It lets the world know that the government works for us, not the other way around

Without question, the 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays throughout the year. I always talk about my love of The Federalist and Anti-Federalist Papers; why wouldn’t I love the celebration of starting a new country built on that philosophy? Yet this year was different. In years past, there is a lot we didn’t know, perhaps suspected, about the motives of government and some of the diabolical characters that make themselves known through traces of corruption. It’s always been a problem, but now, more than ever, the hostile forces against America have been caught doing their ill will. China, specifically, and their parents in the World Economic Forum have been caught buying off politicians, attempting to change rules, such as in California, where celebrating American patriotism is under experimental regulation. We have just survived the attempts of a global takeover of the entire economy where many millions of people died from a bioweapon built by governments for the purpose of centralized control through communism in Covid-19. The compliance threat has been baked into our culture through government-run healthcare and governors who grade well under China’s spy network that ranks them according to their compliance with global communist standards. We are seeing attacks on our culture and country, unlike any other time in history, whether it’s the Revolution itself, the Civil War, the War of 1812, or the Spanish American War; this modern warning of passive-aggressive communism introduced to us through those we’ve hired to protect us, our politicians, our corporations, our media consumption is a real threat. We have just witnessed the coup by our intelligence organizations of an American president who lacked the blood of the Kennedy Assassination but was more arrogant and culturally destructive in many ways. So many were correct to wonder what we were actually celebrating on the 4th of July. But I wasn’t one of them because it’s all obvious to me.

The 4th of July is all about defiance, which ultimately, all these attempts against our culture will fail because the Chinese, the World Economic Forum terrorists, and the finance activists for progressive Luciferians of their sacred Morning Star do not understand the nature of the 4th of July, as Gavin Newsom learned by trying to regulate 4th of July celebrations in California only to see from a flyover anywhere in the state a lot of people from all political persuasions defying the mandate with personal firework shows in their back yards. Fireworks displays are not about community-organized events where everyone comes out and wastes a whole evening sitting on a blanket to watch other people blow things up. The 4th of July is about defiance. About buying illegal fireworks and lighting them off and letting the police and all authorities know that there isn’t anything they can do about it. The message is that we are a nation of laws, but only to a point. And in 2023, we are at that point. The attackers of American culture are expected to capture our nation like in a game of chess. They would capture our country and win the game if they captured our king. But in America, we have a representative government. If our king gets captured, we just find another one. We don’t work for the government. The government works for us, which is different from other places worldwide. And on the 4th of July, people buy fireworks happily to send this message to the government, which is probably one of the only things people generally agree on. That defiance is the key to American culture, and it is something we celebrate with great enthusiasm.

These global attackers, after all, had just tried to suppress Americans under stupid Covid rules, with mask mandates, with social distancing, with government-driven vaccine mandates of dangerous medicine, which has caused people great harm and has the government in trouble due to liability for its terrible decisions in breaking constitutional law for a grab for power, we would be a very different world right now if not for the American trend toward defiance. Of course, we gave the government a chance by listening to them up to a point. But once we realized how dumb everything they were doing was, people rebelled and stopped following the law with the mask mandates; they found ways to push back against the vaccine mandates and conspired to undercut the government that works for them as a natural reaction. And during that critical year of 2021 going into 2022, Americans had been tested, and they held up and destroyed the plans of Bill Gates and his World Economic Forum terrorists. And we discovered that China had been behind the release of the virus from the beginning and did so knowingly. The attack on America had been an expectation of human behavior and that if our “leaders” were captured, then Americans would fall into a line of compliance and do what they were told. But what actually happened was entirely on the opposite side of the expectation scale. Americans expect to be free, and anything that takes that option away from them, they work to undermine in their lives. There is no way to capture American culture with communist tyranny in the same way it has been done in China and elsewhere in the world, and discovering that these modern attackers have forced the globalists to hit the pause button on their diabolical plans.

I have my favorite fireworks store that my wife and I like to go to; it’s the one on the border of Indiana and Ohio in Richmond, Indiana. I enjoy the drive, we usually stop somewhere in Eaton, Ohio, for a bite to eat, and we make a nice day of our journey every year to that fireworks store where I don’t mind paying hundreds if not thousands of dollars just to blow stuff up in our driveway. I enjoy the experience of buying them, they are so happy at that fireworks store, and we usually go a few days before the 4th of July when the parking lot is full. What’s interesting about that particular Shelton’s fireworks store is that the parking lot is actually in Ohio, but the store where you actually buy the products is in Indiana. They have a line about 15 feet from the door across the whole length of the parking lot that makes it clear that after you buy the fireworks, that you are breaking the law in transporting them across state lines. Breaking the law is part of the fun and a gentle reminder to the government that they are not in charge. Ultimately the people are. They govern by our consent. But the 4th of July reminds them that they are ultimately not in charge and will never be. I never get tired of seeing all the different people there spending small fortunes just to prove that rather large point. The buying, transporting, and discharging of fireworks is not just a useless enterprise from a rich society that can afford to spend expendable income on such a destructive pastime. It’s a message of defiance that laws are followed up to the point that the people decide they are either too stupid or too corrupt to follow. And that the ultimate check on power out of control is defiance, a culture that rejects the power of their politicians even as they have now been brought under the control of foreign interests. And that makes blowing up fireworks, and buying them, one of the great treasures of any culture that I never get tired of.

There Will Be No Gun Control in America: Biden’s speech proves that His White House is smoking crack

I’ve been on vacation and catching up on various news stories; I had heard the summary of Biden’s anti-gun speech, the one where he said at the end, “God save the queen, man.” But I hadn’t seen the original speech until recently as I’ve been catching up on the various news stories. And this anti-gun speech is worth some discussion because it brings up an assumption that the Biden administration has about its role in the world that is rather humorous. In that speech, Biden said that the government would ban assault weapons as if that were an achievable goal and that they had a right to do it. Now, of course, Biden is the representative in the White House of globalism, and naturally, for globalism and its communist platform to work, people wouldn’t be able to have guns. That is why the Democrats and some Republicans who have fallen for the temptations of globalism are so eager for gun control. Because they can’t get their centralized authority until they have control of the guns until people must turn to government for their fundamental security in life, so long as Americans are independent and armed, communism can’t work in America. They are desperately trying to apply it, but there is no enforceability if people are privately armed. So, in that regard, Biden is simply saying what the communist goals are under the influence of his Chinese owner’s demand. Before there can be a one-world communist government, guns must be removed from American society, which is no easy task. Because guns are at the core of American culture, and people have an increasing understanding of that, which is setting up for quite a standoff soon as the government tries to implement its communist agenda fully.  

It should be noted that not that long ago, as Mike Pompeo was Trump’s Secretary of State, he reported to all 50 of the governors in America that China had a scorecard for each one of them. China is watching all aspects of American life, trying to figure out how to bring us down from the inside out, and they are grading our state governors as favorable or unfavorable to their communist platform, just as they would do in their own country. And, of course, one of the key issues that China finds favorable or unfavorable is the position on gun control. We are not dealing with threats to our country in the traditional way; the Chinese do not fight war the way we have been trained to expect it. They work behind the scenes to undermine their targets, and they have been doing that to us for a long time, and we have let them do it largely because we expected our paid-off politicians to defend us. Instead, they were enjoying the honey pots and the filled bank accounts that come from creative financing at the World Economic Forum, which is the real villain working behind the scenes, propping China up to be the baddie while they implement their mechanisms of control behind the scenes. There is quite a lot of deception going on, but everyone needs to understand that the ultimate goal is a trick to convince Americans to give up their guns so that the thieves of the world can feast on our gullibility. Americans have been gullible, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing; it’s been a luxury on our part because we are a gun culture. We can afford to be nice to other countries and make hostile efforts to overthrow our country because we ultimately hold the supreme power, personal defense, and the ability to fight back against a tyrannical government.

What’s humorous about Biden’s anti-gun comments is that he assumes and believes in the power of government, the same military that has cross-dressing drag queens running it, he thinks are going to be able to go door to door to arrest and confiscate firearms under force. You can’t have it both ways, old man; you can’t defile America’s military on the world stage with a bunch of transvestites and simultaneously evoke fear of such awesome power that they wield. Showing weakness in the American military with woke policies might have made your Chinese bosses happy, but it certainly hasn’t instilled fear into Americans who might see their military turned against them by the power of government to impose martial law. That’s not going to work out too well. Biden constantly references airstrikes against political opponents who might be resolute on the Second Amendment with the same audacity that he has used his own Department of Justice to go after political rivals; meanwhile, Hunter Biden is recording himself breaking the speed limit and doing crack to show how above the law he is. And the White House has a cocaine problem; a bunch of dumb druggies run it, and we are supposed to be OK with that as a culture? No, that’s not how it works. Americans have had the comfort level to look beyond these issues because they have private ownership of guns. Without that security, it would be many times worse in the city streets than we currently see in Paris. Once Americans realize the kind of control that these communist global governments want for them, that happy talk will go away rather fast. 

There won’t be any gun control in America. The 90s assault weapons ban that Biden talks about will never happen again because we are essentially a different country now. We witnessed what this government did with vaccine mandates, Covid in general, election fraud, and how they treated a popularly elected president in Trump. Any notion that the government is the key to a safe society is gone, and gun control, or convincing people that gun control is an option at all, would require complete trust in government. And the more that government has tried to use force to impose itself on people, the worse they have made that argument for trust. It would take many decades for people to trust the government again after all we’ve seen over these last several years. And Biden’s goals for gun control are simply him reading off the playbook of the globalists who know they need it to further their plans. But Americans know that that number is growing in intensity, that guns are the backdrop to their freedoms, freedoms they have taken for granted. Freedoms they took for granted because they had guns. Florida recently became the 26th state to implement Constitutional Carry, something I thought would be a fantasy just five years ago. But people see what’s happening, and now nearly half the country knows that the key to surviving all these globalist impositions is to widen gun coverage to individual people. The power of government isn’t big enough or organized enough to do what the globalist forces want them to do in America. Because on the ground level, America is still run by Americans. Not by the central banks. Certainly not by the politicians. Not by the media.   But by, gun-wearing Americans who outnumber all the guns of the world and stand in the way of what globalism wants to achieve because of their gun ownership. And because of that ownership, we will remain free in America. Which more and more people are figuring out based on the actions of this corrupt government whenever it opens its mouth.

Communism in our Culture: What we learned from the Darbi Boddy interview

The failure on all fronts is the breakdown of the logic of communist philosophy as it has been accepted and taught to us through our public education system. This question has been asked of me many times since I did the video interview with Darbi Boddy, the Lakota school board member that the institution itself wanted to eliminate before she ever had a chance to do anything in the job. This idea that the system is in charge and not the voters is obviously a problem that was witnessed with President Trump, as the Deep State worked aggressively to get rid of Trump before he even had a chance to get into the White House. On a more local level, the same approach came at Darbi Boddy; it’s baked into the assumptions we have as a culture, one that slowly, over many years, accepted a communist view of the world as opposed to the efforts of a meritocracy—talking to her and hearing her point of view it’s easy to hear where the problem is. When she was first a school board member in those opening days, the institution aggressively sought to romance her into friendship, and the goal was then to use that friendship toward the aims of group consensus. Actually, the entire education system, as Dewey designed it, is designed to break students down into their forever social compliance roles; whether they would be the popular kids, the scrappy worker bees, or the garbage heap bottom-of-the-barrel types, public education was meant to break kids down into their social roles, and the same application would, of course, be applied to the leadership to get the same results. We weren’t teaching kids or their teacher’s exceptionalism; we were teaching sameness and class structure. The goal was class and to put people in those classes so they’d be easy to control.

After that interview with Darbi, I had a number of people call me and warn me of the terrible thing that I had done; I had given her a platform to speak from. I had allowed her to function outside of the class structure they felt was necessary for the maintenance of a public school, and it was determined that she was going to be smoked out because she had resisted the compliance culture of sameness that was expected in public education, especially on the school board level. Of course, I answered that was precisely why I ran an alternative news and opinion site because I hated communism and wanted more people like Darbi to be able to get their word out and let people see who they were, not what some communist caricature of her interpreted for the audience. It was a good interview with her, and you can know how much by how many people were upset by it. It wasn’t anything she had said, but that she had the means to say it that they were so angry with. And within that sentiment was the solution and fix to the entire problem. The weakness of communism, of course, is a society that functions on merit. When people earn their reputations and aren’t controlled by the consensus builders based on behavior, that’s when the system breaks down quickly because communists never figured it out. They simply implemented it as Karl Marx designed it, then put it out for society to follow in every way that institutions had formed in relation to the communist position. But that’s what we are dealing with. That is the goal behind globalism in general and why they expect to run the world with China-style communism as the tool.

I’ve studied this topic for a long time, including tracing the footsteps of Karl Marx and his studies in the British Museum. I had to see it for myself where the most destructive philosophy ever introduced to the human race was created. It has only been recently that communism has lost some of the stigmas that it naturally had against it in American culture because now the cat is out of the bag, and the China model is not a well-kept secret anymore. I pointed this out to everyone when Lakota schools started an exchange program to send teachers to China to learn how the communist China model would work. I was against it, and many bellyached about my comments. After all, China was our friend. I’ve openly talked about communism in our culture for my entire adult life, and the mechanism it uses is this consensus-building method that you see on every school board, every board room meeting, and every approach that involves groups of people working out common problems. You especially see it in politics, where sameness is expected. The message is that people come and go. What we need is institutional stability by taking away the peaks and valleys of performance. It was the institution that mattered more than individual input. That was the communist message to America, and by now, almost everyone involved in group activity utilizes those methods to maintain control of the institutions they serve. 

Of course, people like Darbi were elected by people who expect a more free market approach to the social management problem, which is the same for Trump as well. The public has not accepted that communism maintained through social interactions (friendships) is as big of a problem as it really is. Because they believe in America as a merit-based society, they still believe that individuals can move mountains if allowed to utilize the best and brightest ideas among them. At the same time, communism seeks to protect the institution from those pesky fluctuations of individualized input. This is why the McCarthy hearings in the 1950s were so critical and criticized by those trying to bring communism to America. The reason communism is dangerous is that we have fought several wars trying to protect ourselves from removing social interactions with individual input into a compliance structure where inputs are interchangeable and worthless. Darbi was elected to bring her individual character to the school board to represent the voters who put her there. But the school board itself, from the OSBA and down to the president, which is a person I know personally, was to get control of her. And once they realized they would never have control of Darbi, the resolve was to use the institutional protections of communism to get rid of her, with group pressure. And so many people who call themselves conservatives fell in line with the communist way of thinking. They were so far gone they could no longer see the situation objectively. And that made them hate Darbi even more because she made them realize how anti-capitalist they were in their lives. The way that communism expects to command the world through centralized authority is by controlling the expectations of what institutionalism actually does. When individuals spend their time on institutional compliance rather than the contributions of individual merit to a group debate, the power structure has shifted to centralized authority rather than merit-based input, which is the root cause of many of the world’s problems presently. It’s easy enough to fix once people realize that’s what’s going on. And in my own school district, the reaction to the Darbi Boddy interview told the story clearly for all to see, which is why she has been so good as a school board member.   We are working to get communism out of our public life, and schools are the first place to start. And to do that, we need good school boards and many more people like Darbi to bring value to managing these public assets.

Why Should We Vote for Trump if He Got Suckered During His First Term: Fighting the organized crime of captured governments worldwide

I have many books that cover conspiracy theories that, before 2019, nobody would have believed. After all, who in their right mind would have believed that the government, “our government,” was involved in the creation of a bioweapon that ended up killing many millions of people worldwide and that it was unleashed in 2020 from China as a way to destroy the American presidency and red-hot economy? And that Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates knew what the plan was, and they purposely suppressed medicine to fight the bioweapon virus, such as hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, so that more people would die, and that the goals of a Great Reset, as imagined by Klaus Schwab and Yuval Harari from the World Economic Forum, a group of terrorists posing as a kind of charity organization who are seeking world domination without having a country to represent, but rather all countries united under globalism for their maniacal plans of mayhem and destruction of capitalism by communist insurgents. Yet that is precisely what happened, and what was worse was the timing, during the 2020 election season so that the emergency mode that swept over America could be used to suspend Constitutional norms and push states into changing the law for how elections were conducted so that American intelligence agencies could orchestrate a coup against a sitting president, a person hated by all the forces of globalism, both foreign and domestic, yet loved popularly by most of America who wants the sovereignty of their country back, so they trusted their election process as opposed to hitting the streets with violence to preserve their nation. Covid kept everyone hiding in their homes from the government-engineered virus, terrified that they might be the next victim of death. It was a very elaborate scheme involving many thousands of horrible people in governments worldwide. But who would have believed it before that time? 

Well, I did; I screamed it from the mountaintops. I find it amazing, for instance, after seeing the new Indiana Jones movie many times at the theater now that most people are having a problem with learning that the United States hired Nazis for the American space program. Really! That is supposed to be a well-known fact. The American space program that started NASA was full of old Nazis from Germany who worked directly for Hitler. And in addition, they were radical occultists way over the deep end, connected to Alister Crowley and the New Dawn cult that involved sacrificing all kinds of living things to ancient gods for supernatural aid. Everyone should know that because it’s been talked about in conspiracy circles for years but talking to people coming out of the Indiana Jones movie seems to be the most shocking thing to them. They didn’t know. It’s not what you talk about at Starbucks, especially before 2019, before Covid was unleashed on the world. Yet it was true, all of it was, and much more. I would not say I was ever a fan of conspiracy theories; I have always wanted a straight-up society of good people running our government and that our society was something we could all believe in and be proud of. I wanted to be proud of NASA. I wanted to be proud of the CIA. I used to have a nice hat I wore everywhere, showing my support for the CIA. But the more I read about these groups, the more you learn about these conspiracy theories and how true they really are. 

And like the talk about Nazis who founded NASA, many of those same people are now saying that we shouldn’t vote for President Trump because he was suckered so much by those around him. Obviously, Trump did get suckered by Bill Gates and Dr. Fauci. Trump trusted people, and they knowingly took advantage of his lack of knowledge regarding Covid, tricking Trump into destroying his own economy for the benefit of the aggressive Chinese. I called it a Pearl Harbor attack at the time. But I was the only one. Everyone else was grabbing a mask and hiding in their homes because the dumb government told them to, the same people who caused the problem in the first place. Then Trump thinking he was team building put a lot of Rinos on his staff to appease the various factions that were against the Make America Great Again movement. And those people sought to appease Trump’s ego to his face while working behind the scenes to undermine his presidency. So why on earth would we want to return Trump to the White House if he was so easily suckered? What would prevent him from being suckered again? Why should we give him another chance, or even worse yet, shouldn’t we appease the gods of globalism so that they stop unleashing bioweapons on us and trying to destroy our economy by picking some lightweight like Ron DeSantis or Nikki Haley, as endorsed by Fox News and the gang in New York are simply the controlled opposition for global politics with Chinese style communism in mind. There are serious problems that may require appeasement as opposed to transformative leadership in the Executive Branch. 

Long before Obama was in the White House, there were massive conspiracies engineered by lots of hostile forces to destroy America from the inside out, to destroy our laws, put international criminals in charge of our money, and to rob the value of our country and redistribute it around the world. But when Trump was elected in 2016, and the forces of globalism panicked because that was never supposed to happen, they showed their cards to the rest of the world that by the time 2020 rolled around, they were no longer concerned about concealing these vast conspiracy theories. And now that we can see them openly, we can now talk about defeating those forces. And no other presidential candidate is more motivated to fight these aggressors than Trump. He wants revenge for what they did to him personally. And many of us want a peaceful revolution against these hostile forces for the threat we have always known them to be. But because of Trump, more people now know them. Trump knows who the players are because they personally burned him, he understands how the corruption machine works, and if he had just four years to deal with it, he could do great things that have needed to happen for decades. But only now are people ready to see what those things are and comprehend just how hostile those forces against America, both foreign and domestic, were all along. “Yes, Nazis built our moon rockets,” I said to a very nice man after seeing the latest Indiana Jones movie. “Without Hitler’s Nazis, an American space program would never have existed. What they showed in that movie was actually true.” He was stunned. I could have continued, “and Covid was created to destroy America and capitalism in general from the inside out.” Maybe someday someone will make a movie about these things, and I’ll have a similar conversation with people like that 50 years from now. But until then, Trump is the best way to change the course of history back to an American nation that is the light for the world. And only he could have a chance to perform the task because he learned the players from actual, real-world experience that forced these conspiracies to the surface for all to see.

‘Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’ is Fantastic: The way they used to make movies, family-friendly, happy endings, and a real love for the audiance

The really good news is that Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a wonderful movie. I have said it for years, and it’s certainly true here, one of the extraordinary measures of a society’s health is its box office because it tells the world what people are buying at the movie theater as an entertainment option. It accurately describes what kinds of things people really like in the world and provides a measure beyond political beliefs to the truth of public sentiment. It’s much more difficult to understand when you get into television ratings and streaming services. And I think what happened with Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is something that we talked about last year with the release of Top Gun: Maverick, another movie that, like Indiana Jones, was delayed for many years in production before being released to the public. I’m sure that Steven Spielberg will deny it, along with the diversity crew at Disney, but clearly, what happened with Indiana Jones and the newly directed James Mangold Dial of Destiny is that they learned some important lessons with Top Gun, one of the first big hits coming out of Covid. And as a result, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is a fantastic film that seeks to be more like Raiders of the Lost Ark than the more slapstick Last Crusade. If you understand Indiana Jones like I do, and many people who have been with this character for over four decades now, and have watched all the television shows, read all the books, read the comics, played the video games, this Indiana Jones movie does a great job of showing a very complete character in a way that Hollywood has never had to deal with. And the movie pulls it off spectacularly and very respectfully. As only Harrison Ford could play, this is a very complex character, more so than most reviewers could wrap their minds around, and the result is something extraordinary with a very happy, family-friendly ending. I don’t think there was a single curse word in the entire film, and it didn’t have anything woke in it. It was an offering from Disney that was begging for forgiveness from the movie-going public.

What was clear to me was that this new director, James Mangold, loves Indiana Jones as many of us do, and he understands the character and his significance to actual history. I’ve also said many times that Indiana Jones has done more for science than almost any other resource in the history of the world. The publishing industry has really flourished because of Indiana Jones, not by direct correlation, but the hunger for the kind of content that is often discussed in Indiana Jones films and in Dial of Destiny; a lot is going on, things that work at many different levels that were built around a movie with a true love for the world of Indiana Jones and the way that fiction carries over into fact. I would go so far as to call Dial of Destiny as brilliant and ambitious while being very safe in the continuation of the character. As many have discussed, Indiana Jones is an old man in this movie. Harrison Ford is 80 years old, so we aren’t talking about a swashbuckling Errol Flynn type mixed with Humphrey Bogart as Raiders of the Lost Ark was often characterized back when it was first released. This is something unique and entirely of its own making that now has its own history that everything is measured from. And some of the real Indiana Jones types that are out there in the world doing great work, clearly inspired by these movies over the years, like Graham Hancock, the Joe Rogan Show, and even the religious writer Jonathan Cahn have shown that most of the thrill of Indiana Jones isn’t a youthful man fighting bad guys and escaping under speeding trucks. Over the years, the greatest thrills in Indiana Jones movies are more intellectual than physical, and that’s why Dial of Destiny works so well with an old Indiana Jones doing what only he could.

Instead, I would have Disney not made this Indiana Jones movie before I saw it. I raised my children on these movies; now, my grandchildren are tremendous fans. I enjoyed Kingdom of the Crystal Skull as an ambitious film that many didn’t like because it stepped out of the formula established in the first three films that were all released during Reagan-era politics in the 1980s. As much as people didn’t like the movie, and that Steven Spielberg didn’t seem to want to make it, there were a lot of positive things that came from that fourth film, such as the History Channel’s show Ancient Aliens, which culminated in the lives of great writers like Zecharia Sitchin and Erich von Daniken. These Indiana Jones movies open the broader market for these kinds of unique adventures into history, such as The Gold of the Gods so wonderfully portrays. Indiana Jones may have started as an adventurous playboy grave robber in Raiders of the Lost Ark. But he evolved quickly into the pent-up frustrations of George Lucas himself, a very smart person who wanted to live the lifetimes of dozens of the most brilliant people in all of human history, that over the years was attempted to flush out in all forms of media available to tell these stories. This movie, Dial of Destiny, does all that while still managing to keep Indiana Jones the person we have always known. He shoots guns in this movie, which I thought Disney would avoid altogether. There are fistfights that are not unbelievable for an 80-year-old man. And the development of Helena Shaw was respectful, fun, and dashing. I would easily see a movie that featured her as a main character. Played by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, she was a fun character, and I could see a sequel to Dial of Destiny where she is the feature, and Indiana Jones makes a guest appearance to help the movie along. This might be the last Indiana Jones movie, but I don’t think it will be the last Indiana Jones appearance by Harrison Ford, based on how this movie ended. 

It will be interesting to see how much business this movie does for Disney. Disney has severe brand damage now with their commitment to woke politics. But this movie is a clear peace offering to the ticket-buying public to help repair that brand. To invite people to come back to the theme parks. This is Bob Iger attempting to get Disney back in the public’s good graces. At least this film deserves to be in the billion-dollar club. But the Disney brand has made some people very, very angry. Yet this movie is as good as movies can be made and does not destroy a character the world has fallen in love with. And it leaves the door open to a happy ending for him, given that Indiana Jones is old. And that John Williams, who does a fantastic job with the musical score, as usual, is now in his 90s. This happy movie gives fans what they are looking for, and I couldn’t recommend it more. This is the kind of film that movie theaters were made for, that we used to get all the time in the 80s and 90s, but are now very rare. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is something special, and it was wonderful to see that movies like this can still be made.

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

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

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

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

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

Hidden River Cave: One of the Great Treasures in the World

Looking up and out of Hidden River Cave

We happened to be in the Mammoth Cave area to show my grandchildren what caves were all about. I’ve always loved the Cave City exit off I-65 and have been to Mammoth Cave many times over the years. But I had not been back there in around ten years, certainly before Covid, so my wife and I were very surprised to find their new reservation system clunky. Granted, Mammoth Cave is the longest cave system in the world and is quite a treasure in the United States. It’s a top-class national park, and if there is something I love, it’s National Parks. So the Mammoth Cave National Park is a busy one. But unlike in the past, where you could show up the same day you wanted to tour the cave, now you have to schedule your tour weeks and months in advance. And ahead of our trip with the grandkids and all their parents, we found out a week ahead of our visit that all the tours were booked up. However, during June and July, Mammoth Cave does offer self-guided tours, which is all I was interested in anyway. My kids were not interested in listening to someone talk for two hours. They wanted to go and explore things at their own pace. So we did that tour and gave the kids exposure to one of the greatest cave systems in the world, so they could say that they had been there and done it, essentially.

Sometimes the cave floods, but not in a dangerous way

Yet, many caves in the area extend outside the National Park borders. So I planned to take the kids to some of the privately owned caves, which I hoped would be much more customer friendly. And that’s precisely what happened. In addition to exploring Mammoth Cave, we went to Onyx Cave, which is right off the exit in Cave City. It was very nice, and the kids could get much more adventurous with the cave system itself. The tour guides were much looser than the stiff-necked Mammoth Cave guides, who have too many rules to have fun and are way too wrapped up in hippie conservation talk. Every time you breathe in a National Park cave, some government employee is crying about humans’ impact on the earth that might affect cave growth. But not at Onyx Cave. It was a very enjoyable experience, and the grandkids could learn a lot about caves and get adventurous without stepping into the actual category of “spelunking.” They were too little for rough cave exploring yet, complete with lights on helmets and crawling through passages on your belly. The trail at Onyx Cave was great; it had a lot of steps, and we could see many stalagmites and stalactites up close. And the tour was just long enough to be interesting without getting boring. After those two experiences, I wasn’t satisfied that the kids had explored caves sufficiently enough to be educational, not in the ways they needed to. So the whole trip required a climax, and I found it just a few miles up the road from our campsite in Cave City at Horse Cave. Horse Cave is the actual name of a town, and it’s two miles off I-65 and features a cave system that runs under the town called Hidden River Cave. I wasn’t sure what we were getting into, but it sounded promising. So on the last day of our visit, we arrived there in the pouring rain and had a fantastic little adventure.

My granddaughter enjoying an adventure

Hidden River Cave was everything I had been looking for regarding a cave experience. It was privately owned, but the investment was better than what we had just seen at Mammoth Cave. They had almost a whole city block of cave tourism that was very well organized, complete with a fantastic museum. And it was all right in the middle of town. It is so well hidden that most people coming to the Mammoth Cave site have no idea it’s even there. But after visiting, I would say anybody going to Mammoth Cave should make Hidden River Cave part of their journey. It’s so good that really I would say it’s better than going to Mammoth Cave. It’s much easier to deal with as a visitor, and the cave interaction is much more adventurous. The cave tour itself takes visitors back into the system as it runs directly under the town of Horse Cave, around ¾ of a mile. It’s not a long tour, but just long enough to be interesting. My kids weren’t bored at all; the cave isn’t as well lit up as Mammoth Cave which is a big plus because it allows you to get your own flashlights out and use them to see. But the path you walk on is fantastic, exceptionally well built and features the longest underground suspension bridge in the world that spans across a deep underground gorge where the Hidden River rages by underneath. Because it’s a river, it floods often and did flood over after all the heavy rain just a few days after we left the area. That is why the trail is so good because it’s built to withstand flooding. So, there was nothing rickety and unsafe about it. But it didn’t feel too touristy either; it was an adventurous experience without being uncomfortable or hazardous for little ones.

It’s a deep cave that runs right under the town. A literal secret passage way into the underworld

Three hundred million years ago, the Mammoth Cave region was the coastline of an inland ocean. The equator was in a different place, to the north, so the sea did its work to carve out all these cave features by working through the sandstone layers and getting down into some of the intense limestone, which is why there are over 400 miles to the Mammoth Cave system, and all these exciting pockets of private cave tours like Hidden River Cave that are so conveniently off the highway. Visitors can get up close and personal with adventurous tours without getting dirty and spending an entire day going spelunking, which are options offered at Hidden River Cave. They had a whole adventure course with zip lines and canopy ropework behind the tourist entrance. This cave experience was created by adventurers for the purpose of exploration, and it had the right vibe I was hoping for. But what was missing was that stiffness you get at the National Parks. We have been to many of them, including Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons, and the Badlands, and while those places are very nice, they have a kind of government bureaucracy to them that was completely gone at Hidden River Cave. In the context of some of the best places in the world to go, Hidden River Cave is one of the best, and it’s so easy to get to. I would highly recommend it. It’s worth a trip by itself. As I said, the cave does flood, so it’s very adventury down in it. But when it rains heavily, it fills up after a few days. It’s not like people would be caught down there in a flash flood. It takes a few days to fill and a few days longer for all the water to run out. But the result of the cave itself is that it’s just wild enough to experience caves in an adventurous way, without the dangers of exploring caves that this level of interaction actually entails. The Hidden River Cave experience is a wonderful option showing how private ownership often gets the best results, which is undoubtedly the case here.

There is nothing better than teaching young people the path to a good life

A UFO Over Middletown, Ohio: Right where I said one should appear

It’s always news when a UFO appears in the sky in your community, especially a well-defined one as occurred on June 21st, 2023, in precisely the location that I had dared one to appear just a few days earlier. One of my locations for recording VLOGs for my website is the LeSourdsville Lake Park near the campus of Butler Tech. I had been covering the increase in the news of UFO sightings, precisely the one in Las Vegas recently where reportedly a UFO crashed in the backyard of some witnesses, and 10-foot-tall aliens were running around trying to conceal the crash by driving around construction equipment. All this was reported to the police, captured on video, and had multiple witnesses. As I report these things, I say that UFO encounters are much more common among many more people who typically don’t get recognition for them, so it was odd that there are many more reporting than usual and that they are occurring with more frequency with multiple witnesses. My purpose for talking about it wasn’t the phenomenon itself but that the government was admitting to it. And my offering was that the government was in trouble with all these other scandals, horrible inflation, globalism gone bad, a Covid story that wouldn’t go away, election fraud, and abuse of the Department of Justice; there is a lot that the American government would like to get out of people’s minds, and usually when you see a rash of UFO stories, that is the card that governments hide under their sleeve for just such emergencies. 

So to take the edge off the story, I pointed to a spot on the ground and dared a UFO to appear, and a few days later, just a few hundred feet away, a really good UFO appeared in the sky to multiple witnesses who were able to record it on their cell phones. The UFO hovered in the sky near the Speedway, which is nearby with very defined lights turning in a counterclockwise direction before jutting off to the northeast at impossible speeds for conventional physics. Early offerings on the matter were that it could have been a drone or a series of drones. But whatever it was, it was certainly something, and many people saw it. Of course, my first reaction was that someone had seen my video and had the idea to create the situation to answer my challenge. Because there were too many coincidences to consider, out of all the latitude and longitude coordinates in the world, this UFO appearance was just too perfect considering my challenge. And out of all the times in the year, this one appeared just a few days after I had asked it to. That left the question of who and why because the UFO that appeared in the sky was undoubtedly a what and a where. I have recorded UFOs in this general area before, but this one was very well-defined and had all the cinematic elements that are typically associated with UFO technology, spinning, colorful lights, impossibly high speeds, and the ability to hover in place. It was a classic UFO sighting that was entirely too perfect to be real, yet there it was. 

I wondered about it being a drone, about it being an experimental craft from nearby Wright Patterson Airforce Base. One of the reasons that there may be many UFO sightings in the Southern Ohio area is the many Indian mounds. This precise area has many markers in the shape of mounds, as I have talked about them being references to points in time that were created to help a navigator understand due to star alignments with them “when” in time a space traveler might want to know. Specifically, in this case, the nearby Fort Hill alignments that are over 5000 years old align to the constellation Aries and involve the Pleiades star system at a time when people shouldn’t have had such ideas about astrology. And just a few miles to the north of that UFO sighting is the Middletown Mound which is related to the massive Miamisburg mound just upriver a few miles. So, these UFOs aren’t as uncommon as people might think, nor are their reasons for appearing in the Southern Ohio skies. No matter how advanced onboard equipment might be, even for a society that is millions of years further along technologically than we are present, there is nothing like a good signpost in the ground to tell you when you are somewhere because space travel can get funky, as time does not move the same way for everyone, everywhere. It helps to know “when” you are, not just “where.” Most of the UFOs I have seen are very high up. One of my daughters is very tuned in to these kinds of things and always finds them. Most recently, there was one she recorded and sent to me right over my house, but very high up. I remind people that there is a lot of advanced technology that people have, governments, crime syndicates, pedophile rings within the World Economic Forum, crazy lunatics obsessed with bizarre sex practices where they drink adrenochrome, which could simulate a UFO occurrence with holographic projections, which is what I think this UFO reported on August 21st actually was. We are dealing with very hostile people who have gained the advantage in recent years of a technology-based world that is easy to manipulate through images. And those who control what you see are prone to abuse that power.

Understanding all that, my statement on UFOs and all other potential hostilities, no matter where they come from, is that the American Constitution is a philosophy that is the law of the land and that we do not suspend it just because aliens from other planets happen to show up. It’s the same kind of debate that we had when the government purposely mismanaged Covid by denying victims of proper medicine such as hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin as treatments, allowing people to purposely be killed by the virus released by the lab in Wuhan through government cooperation globally. In America, they tried to suspend our Constitutional rights over Covid and implied the same regarding UFO encounters. If we come face to face with an alien species, then we are expected to cleave to the government to save us, and under such conditions, our Constitution would be suspended. My argument is that “no,” we never suspend our Constitution and turn our lives over to the government, which is what I had been saying was the root cause of these increases in UFO appearances. The fact that they were happening, and more frequently, was the government’s way to corral people behind their cause, to get them to seek the safety of the government’s skirt like a frightened child. I would further offer that our American Constitution would be valuable to teach aliens from space.

Just because they are technologically further along than us doesn’t mean they are smarter. They could learn a thing or two from the American Constitution. But we don’t suspend it just because of some emergency or visits from an alien species. And ultimately, that’s why I think the UFO sightings are happening. To remind people that government is there to protect them from unknown forces and that those forces are just hovering around anywhere, anytime. What defense do we have if not for the government? Well, my statement is that the government does lie and that they are far more dangerous than the aliens. If the aliens want to come, go ahead and land, and let’s have a chat. But suspending the Constitution, or our investigative First Amendment that looks at all the bad dealings of this corrupt government isn’t going to happen. Based on what we know now, the government isn’t something we should be running to for protection. They are what we should be running from, aliens and all.
