The Jesse Watters DOGE Interview: A change that will last

It was an excellent interview with Jesse Watters, DOGE, and Elon Musk.  I think we are seeing something here that will stick around, and I couldn’t be happier, reflecting over the years to the early part of the Tea Party movement, when fiscal responsibility was our main concern.  It seemed inconceivable at the time that something like a DOGE would ever happen.  But here we are in 2025 having serious discussions about the massive government waste that taxpayers are funding, and it’s not just a campaign issue that comes up every four years.  As Elon Musk has set it up, DOGE has emerged as something that can stick around long after he’s gone, which is what good CEOs do for their companies: you set the table and make it so that you build a culture that can run on its own.  And I’m sure Elon Musk will stick around and be a figurehead of DOGE for a long time.  But what he has created and what the members are doing will last and become a part of government oversight that will last even as the political tides might change.  The Jesse Watters interview captured well what DOGE really is, which I’m sure they had no idea it would be.  One thing that was certainly obvious was that the people doing DOGE are brilliant and well-intentioned, and what Elon Musk has done as the head of the effort is set a standard that can now cascade into a culture of scrutiny that should have been present from the beginning.  Whenever you have money involved, there will be people looking to exploit the system so they can steal some of it.  And when you have a government this big and powerful, that can confiscate so much wealth from people, abuse was a certainty.  But to what extent can people only imagine, until now?

I don’t think Elon Musk needs to be there every day to run DOGE.  It’s nice that he is still doing it even as the government’s activism against him has sought to ruin his car company, Tesla.  Elon Musk might be the wealthiest person in the world, but this commitment to DOGE has cost him dearly.  And I think from here on out, all that needs to be done is to empower people like the current DOGE members into doing the work and to let it take on a life of its own.  What they ended up with differs from what they set out to do in saving trillions of dollars off the top of the budget.  Most of the savings they have extracted aren’t the obvious things like entitlement payments and program-driven budgets, but the day-to-day abuses that get hidden behind all the chaos.  Most of the savings coming from DOGE are in saved opportunity cost, which is usually very hard to measure.  Elon Musk’s way of thinking when running his other companies was just what was needed.  The government has required this oversight since it started collecting taxes, and what Elon Musk has done in this very short time deserves great recognition and gratitude because he could have done what most everyone does, and just ignored the problem.  When you are as wealthy as he is, he could have easily turned his back on the issue and moved offshore to live a fun life.  But to sink his teeth into this project took guts, and because of it, we’ll be talking about DOGE, I think, permanently. 

People can’t be trusted to do the right things on their own, and one thing that came out of the DOGE interview on Fox News was how many people have been abusing the system dramatically.  I saw much of this firsthand when my wife and I traveled to Washington, D.C. for an extended period and lived in Fairfax County to see how most of those communities entirely existed off the waste scraped off the top of government.  Many of the programs that have so much waste in them were created with the best of intentions, but when you involve people who are always looking for the easiest way to do things, a scandal is bound to happen, and many people are professional con artists, even to themselves.  They can look in the mirror and even lie to what looks back and feel okay with it.  Those are the kind of people drawn to government work, and the many spoils come from a largely unregulated system.  The stories of abuse that DOGE is telling are just the tip of the iceberg.  And, astonishingly, we are talking about it now.  I thought from the Tea Party perspective that we’d have to have another Revolutionary War-type engagement to get control of government spending and waste.  I never thought that President Trump, one of the wealthiest men in the world, would be in the White House, which meant he was personally free of the typical social constraints that even keep the questions from being asked.  Or that the wealthiest and most innovative CEO in the world would personally create a department to oversee waste management and root out the perpetrators like a gunslinging sheriff in a wild and hostile old west town full of criminals. 

I think Elon Musk has done enough, and if he did nothing else with DOGE, he has given us something that will last well into the future.  I do not think that Democrats will be back in the White House anytime soon, if ever.  I do not see them retaking power in the House and Senate and gaining the ability to stop DOGE politically.  No, I think DOGE is here to stay and will run fine because it has good people in it, and it started because of Elon Musk.  But it has emerged into its own thing, and now there is a level of expectation for it to continue.  The public will never not want a DOGE to look out for waste on their behalf.  Going back to the system where looters were free to steal all they could from the government system will never be what it was.  In a lot of ways, creating DOGE is what people looked through all the smoke to elect Trump in the first place was all about.  This is precisely why we wanted Trump.  Elon Musk wouldn’t be able to participate in our government if not for how Trump runs things.  This kind of CEO management style has taken this government waste problem and brought it out of the box for us to fix, instead of the continued policies of hiding the issue from the world and hoping that nobody notices.  DOGE has been so successful that the expectation will be that it will always be a part of government and that its role will expand with time to unleash enterprising people to protect government systems from the parasitic nature of most human beings.  Only the threat of getting caught will keep people in line.  And without DOGE, there was nothing to give criminals pause.  But now there is, and we are far better off for it.

The Wall Street Casino: Never build an economy off slot machines

I’ve heard a lot of dumb talk about the state of the economy at the end of Trump’s first 100 days in office, but people who have been profiting off the chaos for a long time expect it to continue.  Specifically, the condition of the stock market and GDP growth are at a very slow 1.7%.  I would say to everyone, don’t be a sucker, all the economic reporting over the last several years has been phony bologna built on a house of wet cards.  We’ve been in depression territory most of the Biden years, and it was never reported that way because of the Fed’s Modern Monetary Theory of printing fake money to prop up our entire monetary system artificially.  And because they don’t like Trump, they are turning off the faucet to make him look bad.  But real value, where things matter, is improving dramatically, especially on the energy front.  There is a lot of opportunity for massive economic growth, but the control over the usual measures has been ripped away from the bad guys, who aren’t happy about it.  So don’t be a sucker and listen to their cries for help.  And certainly don’t think the stock market is a good measure of economic growth.  At best, the stock market is a gambling casino.  It is designed so the house always wins; sometimes, they let out enough money to encourage people to play.  But you can’t build a policy based on it.  Just as nobody in their right mind would call spending money and reporting winnings from a casino or horse racing as real value, other than in just getting lucky.  You cannot build a national monetary policy around the casino game of stock market investments.  And if anybody thought that the stock market provided guarantees on investments, then they are the victims of a sucker’s game meant to take advantage of the gullible. 

I have been saying this for a long time, and have cautioned Trump people to attach their name to any stock market increases.  The stock market has exploded since Trump was in office the first time, but that isn’t because of Trump’s economic policies, it as a move by the Fed to wash printed money into Wall Street so that firms like BlackRock could gain purchasing power to leverage debt and produce buyouts of companies so that radical leftist boards full of woke politics could take over and manage American companies and they were controlled by the direct CEO letters that Larry Fink would send out to the market, and people would listen because people’s 401K plans were used to hide the ruse.  People would not question this insurrection of America’s monetary policy if they thought they were making a lot of money on the stock market.  But in truth, it was an artificial bubble created by deceit to gain control of American industry and to implement DEI policies to control their management systems.  I have had a front row seat to all this, and I can say that what I’m saying is that I’m putting it nicely.  Maybe too nicely.  But I am sympathetic to all the suckers out there who have fallen for this trick.  If everyone had just thought of the stock market for what it is, a casino, there would be a lot fewer broken hearts now.  I’m not against casinos or the stock market.  But know the game we are playing.  The system is not designed to make people wealthy,  Only to convince them to play the game so they can wash all that phony money injected into the market with real value from the suckers who play the slot machines in the casino, where the house always wins.  And in this case, the home is the Fed. 

Trump would do better to separate himself from the Stock Exchange and stick to tangible assets, such as drilling for oil and an energy policy that can be exported and has real value.  But the liberal media reporting has cooked the books for a long time and isn’t suddenly going to print the truth.  They didn’t suddenly become honest with Trump’s first 100 days in his second term, after Biden was pushed out of office with a massive election victory.  The financial media need suckers from their gambling tables, and BlackRock and the other money managers need real value to wash the money of the fake stuff the Fed has been printing.  They don’t want the GDP to grow without their fingers on that growth so that they can manipulate the results.  And they certainly don’t want their scam to end.  I would recommend that Trump’s White House separate itself as much as possible from Wall Street because a massive correction is coming, and many people will be very upset.  But a lot of real wealth will also be created.  But not from the casino of Wall Street.  Real value in housing, energy, defense, technology, and health will emerge under the capitalism of the Trump administration, and a hateful media culture will not like it.  And they will try to steer people away from Trump’s policies because they know they will lose control of the process during this next Trump term.  The stock market was always a house of cards that would fall at the slightest gust of wind. 

Andrew Jackson warned of this condition when he was president in the early part of the 19th Century and had his famous war with the banks.  We are in a battle for who controls our finances.  Financial people have been happy to let Tea Party types who have grown into MAGA supporters talk about free speech and fiscal responsibility, so long as they continued to seek value for their money from their casinos.  But there isn’t a single money manager out there who is selling investments that do not attempt to take advantage of the short gains of the casino slot machines that come in the form of quarterly reports in industries propped up with phony Fed money, while in reality, socialist policies have capped off our markets in detrimental, and truly destructive ways.  The flashy lights keep everyone from seeing the drunks playing the game with free alcohol provided by the house to numb our senses, and convince us to be easy suckers with prostitutes on our arms posing to be future wives so long as they continued to hit it big.  And to do that, you had to keep playing the game.  No, that game is for idiots; if you have been one of them, that’s on you.  We are taking control of our monetary system, and the casinos aren’t going to be happy about it, and don’t expect them to be.  But don’t expect the United States to build its economy on a gambling platform only.  You can’t make a society off a policy meant to protect stock market gains that were purely fictitious.  And the Fed has dumped so much phony money into the system, they fear people finding out about it.  So, for Trump’s part, let them learn the hard way and don’t attach any part of the administration to the stock market.  It was always a bad measure that bad people controlled for manipulations that have been bad for America.  And it’s time to stop playing that corrupt game rooted in dishonesty and villainy.

The Collapsing Birth Rates in America: There just aren’t enough good men for women who want kids

Let’s face it: one of the biggest crisis issues today is that there are just not enough good men out there. Our society is not producing them, and much of that is purposeful. But we have to talk about it, and the prospect of collapsing birthrates. If you think we have financial problems now, with Social Security and the legacy costs of government employment, then just add to that the prospect of a generation in 20 years where there are fewer people in your economy to work and pay taxes to keep those benefits going. The problem is even more serious than that, but to put it mildly, we need an expanding birthing population, not a declining one. I would argue that the average birthrate per family should be much higher than that of two children. Elon Musk and President Trump are good examples of a nontraditional family approach where each man has produced many kids with multiple women, which is not what I would recommend. I like the idea of romantic love as the troubadours proposed it. But out of necessity, women who want children turn to nontraditional ways of getting there and redefining what a family is. And to understand that, we have to look for historical examples of how the Bible dealt with these problems in the past. Romantic love was an excessive luxury from a culture that could afford it. Most of the time, and in most regions of the world even to this very day, arranged marriages to secure the production of children in a family unit was the primary concern. The happiness of the participants was a distant priority. So, this notion of picking a soulmate and bonding with that person for life is a very new one. And maintaining a sexual union with that one person is an evolutionary idea, not a foundational concern. And sadly, we are seeing too many people these days having to face the music on what all that means to them.


The story of Jacob, father of the Israeli people, is a good example and the center of a lot of controversy, especially when we talk about Mormons practicing polygamy. To avoid the legal stigma of having more than one wife, people are turning to loose sexual associations within the context of mature relationships to produce children by multiple women, which is what Elon Musk has been doing. And women, if they want children from stable and good men, they have to make severe concessions to their expectations in life. And that’s how it was when Jacob met Rachel by a well and fell in love with her. Real troubadour love. And she was excited and went home to tell her family about it. But her father was having a hard time marrying off his oldest daughter, Leah. So he tricked the young Jacob by telling him to labor for him for 7 years to win Rachel’s hand in marriage. Then on the wedding night, he put a veil on his oldest daughter and sent her to Jacob to consummate the marriage. In the morning, Jacob was upset that he had not slept with Rachel, but her older sister, Leah. So Jacob complained to the father, and they made a deal. Jacob would work for the father for another 7 years to win Rachel’s hand, too. Because he really loved Rachel, he did not love Leah. But he ended up, after fourteen years of labor, having two legal wives and two concubines, one coming with each of the daughters. The women had to make all kinds of concessions to earn their way under Jacob’s roof because the value system of that time was the production of children.


One woman can only produce so many kids in her lifetime, so in families like Jacob’s, which was common in the near east and is even a common practice to this day in that region if a man can afford multiple wives, the institution of marriage is not to preserve the troubadour concept of individual love and its fulfilment to a personal journey, but the production of a large family with lots of children to populate the earth and multiply proportionally. Out of those four women, the 12 tribes of Israel were made, which created all of the Jewish people we think of now. It was complicated; the older sister, Leah, was scorned because she was unloved. She did her duty but wasn’t the sister Jacob wanted, so it was far from a happy home. And out of necessity, because there aren’t many good men today, women are finding themselves in situations similar to Leah’s. They want children, but they may not be able to afford a man of their own in the troubadour sense of romantic love, because our society has pushed that concept aside in favor of a depopulation agenda that has targeted the human race for disposal, and a biological terrorist to the sustenance of nature on earth. And that failure has left a lot of broken hearts and desperate women who have found that a career servicing the state did not fill the hole in their hearts of producing children in the context of a family they could believe in. So we are seeing the remnants of a massive social experiment that has failed grotesquely and left many people wanting, even to the point where President Trump’s three wives and children, who came from all of them, appear normal by today’s standards.


The Bible is about a lot of things, but there is a lot of sex in it. One of the more dramatic ones is the story of Abraham and Sarah, who had the son Isaac late in life. But before that, because Sarah couldn’t produce children, she wanted her husband to sleep with her handmaid Hagar, who made the son Ishmael. Isaac became the father of the Jewish and Christian people. Ishmael, the scorned son cast away once born by the jealous and regretful wife, became the father of Islam. We see how that went; the world is fighting with each other like brothers fight over a father’s love and respect. However, the root cause of the problem was that not enough good men and women were willing to make concessions to have children and build a family. And that is where many women are now, and it’s a shame. But it’s something we have to deal with to solve our birthrate problem. We need to produce more children for all kinds of reasons. And we need to do it in this generation. There was a reason that during western expansion, Americans produced big families with many children, and the Bible was a motivating factor for that belief system. And the production of children was the primary concern. The idea of romantic love and dedication came to those who could afford such an idea. But the first thing we must deal with is that we need more men who are worth building a family with. And that is the significant crisis of our time. There aren’t enough good men for women to produce children with. And that needs to change, dramatically. Oh, there are a lot of men, for the most part, one for every woman. But most of them aren’t worth the trouble, leaving women desperately struggling to make concessions that they shouldn’t have to make.

Yes, We Are Going to Arrest Judges and Put Them in Jail: “Imagine” a world where law breakers actually get punished

Yes, to answer the question, we will put judges in jail.  If they break the law, they will be arrested and thrown in jail with everyone else.  And that is a lesson that Judge Dugan in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, learned in late April of 2025 as she was trying to help an illegal alien escape as agents were in her courtroom to deport the guy.  We have been talking about the radicalism of our judiciary, who have come to believe that they don’t have to live by the same rules that the rest of society does, but that they have gained king like powers to resist temporary challenges to social order by elected representatives, like Trump in the White House.  So their goal is to put on the brakes and use the process to stall out temperaments.  Their commitment to the hostile policies of the Open Border movement, which is globalist in nature, was never more evident than in their resistance to the Trump movement.  During the last term, we saw that resistance to the popularly elected Trump came from the FBI and other forces at the Department of Justice.  Now the shoe is on the other foot, and Trump has control of those arms of government.  Because people gave him that power through an election, and now we see as a last line of defense these radical leftist judges who always think they could make up the law from the bench and build the kind of society that they’d like as liberals.  This has been a tactic that has emerged more from the background, the longer Trump has been in politics, because the radicalism was always hidden behind polite society.  And to expose it, Trump needed to make society less polite.  We were dealing with a “screw you over with a smile on our faces” culture that was very manipulative and malicious. 

But Judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the Pam Bondi Justice Department, with Kash Patel and Dan Bongino working on the FBI side, and we suddenly have many different government agencies we can feel good about.  Before Trump was elected back to office, the FBI was helping judicial radicalism, which is why all these sanctuary cities thought they were going to be able to defy Trump.  But now that cover story has been stripped away, the judges are all alone and exposed.  A former ex-judge in New Mexico was also arrested with his wife for essentially doing the same thing as Judge Dugan. Retired Magistrate Judge Joel Cano and his wife Nancy were arrested at their home by Homeland Security, now ran by the great Kristi Noem, for tampering with evidence by destroying the cell phone of his wife as they were harboring Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, a 23-year old Venezuelan national and suspected member of the Tren de Aragua gang.  When they say, “but there is no evidence,” they say stupid things like that because they know their role in destroying evidence and think we’ll never figure it out.  These old judges who think they are in command of the legal system know that to get convictions, you have to have evidence.  So we have a whole subculture of radical, Marxist liberals who think that if they destroy the evidence, our judicial system will never prosecute and get a conviction.  I have seen this process up close, so it’s a huge problem.  Marxists have been playing on the gullibility of good Christian people for many years, and honestly, we’re tired of it.  That’s why people voted for Trump: to give us these new government agencies that had been corrupted by indecision in the past, but now will enforce the law, even when we know that people like Hillary Clinton are destroying the evidence of her email correspondence.  Or that proof of election fraud was wiped out by the courts, which wanted to certify someone they politically support.  Or in the case of illegal immigration, this judicial couple felt they had the power to change immigration law with a protest by using the system against itself.  And now with Kristi Noem, that shell game is no longer working.

And that is the real fear, the radical left’s observation about arresting judges for getting in the way of Trump’s deportation policies.  Before Trump was elected, he made it clear that he was going to go to war with the drug cartels.  And now we see who has been helping them ruin our country, all these radical leftist judges who are sympathetic to the destruction of our country.   Go through the musical libraries of couples like that one in New Mexico. You’ll find a lot of hippie music and progressive artists like Stevie Ray Vaughan, and they are probably in love with John Lennon’s communist song, “Imagine.”  These are not flag-waving Constitutional patriots.  These are hostile hippies now aged and abusing the power they were given as legal professionals to articulate their politics as senior citizens.  And whatever Judge Dugan thought she was doing by trying to sneak off an illegal immigrant in her courtroom through her private chambers only indicates how deep this problem has been for decades.  These judges have been trying to cripple America with soft on crime policies and to change the nature of the American people with open border policies written while pot smoking losers who now run public policy sit around and listen to that stupid John Lennon song, “Imagine.” 

Well, “Imagine this,” a world where lawbreakers go to jail.  And those in charge of judgeships are arrested for using their bench as a political weapon to undo law and order, rather than preserving it.  Finally, we have a Justice Department, an FBI, and a Homeland Security willing to do the job as needed.  And this is just the beginning.  So yes, we will be throwing more judges in jail and prosecuting the radicals regarding judicial review.  If they want to be relevant in co-equal branches of government, they better be willing to work as hard as Trump does to do a good job.  Up to this point, the people we have had in the White House had too many advisors, and they enjoyed the ceremonial aspects of the job too much, but they weren’t in love with the work.  These judges don’t work very much; they drink too much wine and listen to too much old hippie music, which corrupts their minds about the task.  And they aren’t going to stop Trump with weak political positions and a 9-to-noon daily work schedule.  The world isn’t going to slow down to the political sentiments of the Marxist left.  They will have to compete with capitalism, with value, and with laws that protect those values, rather than being an insurgent trying always to undermine them from their benches.  And regarding evidence, action is some of the best evidence of what people get caught doing.  And Judge Dugan was caught tampering with the arrest and deportation of an illegal immigrant.  But she’s not alone.  We need many of these people to clean up our system.  And it’s good to see that we finally have people willing to do the work.  One arrest at a time.  Put them all in jail.  And if we need bigger jails, let’s build them off the money we save by destroying the drug cartels!

The Roger Reynolds Story: Politcal Revenge is a target rich environment

I supported Roger Reynolds, the old Butler County Auditor, when it wasn’t cool to do so.  And I must remind everyone that the story initially broke when Fox 19 in Cincinnati, Ohio, was looking to do a hit piece against the Republican Party of Butler County that started the whole mess.  So don’t be so surprised that they carried Roger’s story about a bloody dispute with the very popular Sheriff Jones and State Attorney General David Yost.  I get where Roger is; he wants to clear his name of any wrongdoing.  He wants to be back in politics.  I get the hurt feelings.  Many people did terrible things to each other, and the abuse of power that was on display is embarrassing and gives politics a bad name.  When David Yost, with the help of Sheriff Jones, tried to put Roger in jail for an improper interest in a public contract, we all knew that there was a lot more going on, and Roger found himself outside of a political party looking to cut him out of it.  And I was there for Roger in the worst of that.  But he wants revenge; they almost put him in jail and cost him a fortune to defend himself in court.  But changing people for who they are just isn’t going to happen.  If you want to be in politics, then you have to beat your enemies in politics, and don’t turn toward the courts, which those in power control, to do your business.  Get back on the horse, ride it, and play politics the way the game is played. 

But as far as I’m concerned, this story ended when Roger was cleared of wrongdoing in the courts.  No political apparatus should be able to destroy other people with the court system, but we’ve seen several instances of that happening in Butler County over the last couple of years, and it wasn’t good on any measure.  But crying about its unfairness and hoping that public sentiment will restore your good fortune is not the way to solve these problems.  And spitting in the face of people who were most supportive of you along the way is a good way to make political enemies.  And by how things work, Roger Reynolds has made himself a political enemy to my way of thinking because of his actions in the wake of this mess, so he’s not doing himself any favors.  Regarding Butler County politics, from my perspective, if you get sideways with Nancy Nix, the new auditor, then I won’t have a lot of sympathy for you.  Nancy, I think, is what all politicians should aspire to be.  She’s a sincerely good person in a very cutthroat profession, and she manages to still be very good at her job.  And she is doing a great job in Butler County as she moved to fill in that auditor seat that Roger had to vacate due to the criminal prosecutions he had to endure.  Roger went immediately to try to get his old job back, which would have been damaging to Nancy Nix personally and the team she has built at the auditor’s office, to make Roger happy, and that’s not a good way to go about things.  And in the upcoming elections, Roger wants to either run against Nancy for his old job back, which puts him against the person who went to court for him in a supporting role and helped him get back on his feet during all this, and was a very loyal friend until he turned on her after these court proceedings.  Or he wants to run for Butler County Commissioner, which will put him against Michael Ryan, the person I have already endorsed, so that will make it so I have to campaign against Roger, which won’t be a good thing for anybody. 

But don’t think that the media of Fox 19 and Channel 5 with Karen Johnson are suddenly pro Roger Reynolds.  I was surprised they picked up his story where he did his article on what had happened to him.  I had done it before for him over the past couple of years and talked about who did what to whom.  But this was the mainstream media getting Roger’s story out from his own lips, which they caused to happen in the first place.  So they aren’t suddenly anybody’s friends.  They are the same malcontents that they always were.  But they see blood in the water of Butler County politics, and if they can use Roger to harm Sheriff Jones, or David Yost, they will undoubtedly do it, and they did during the first week of April of 2025.  I read Roger’s story about the political hit job against him, where he named names and got specific.  But to what end?  Sheriff Jones is getting up there in age and has been vulnerable, especially in this last election season, where he didn’t get a warm endorsement from the Central Committee, because of stories like this one.  He’s good with the immigration issue now that Trump is back in office, and I agree with him on many things.  But politically, if Roger wanted to be a tough guy, he’d go right for the horse and not turn on his once very good friend, Nancy Nix, for his political comeback. 

Then there is Attorney General David Yost.  He wants to run for Governor against Vivek Ramaswamy, the Trump-endorsed candidate.  Yost is very vulnerable to having his entire political career destroyed, especially after what he did to Roger.  If I wanted revenge by the game of politics, you attack where people most want to be, and that is where he should focus.  They are trying to get Roger back in the ring as opposition who wish to divide up whatever party unity has been built now that Trump has been re-elected.  He is only hurting himself by splitting the party into either supporting him over Nancy Nix, or attacking a good commissioner candidate, which would drain away votes for both of them, opening the door for a third-party Christian conservative to win with their typical 35 to 40%.  Meanwhile, these liberal media hacks, like Karen Johnson and Fox 19 in general, get what they want: a damaged Republican Party.  So that’s why I didn’t pick up the phone immediately when Roger called with his story.  I wasn’t ignoring him.  I like him still.  I’ve even met with him a few times to see if there was a way I could help him out.  But once he got sideways with Nancy Nix, that’s the line for me.  And that’s a shame, because if he wants to get tough in politics, we are dealing with a target-rich environment.  And if you wish to take revenge, there are many political ways to get it.  But we all know how politics works, you have to build teams.  You don’t destroy them.  And the media coverage of his story wasn’t for his benefit.  It was to harm the Republican Party using him as the vehicle to do it.  And if you don’t love the Party for what it can do for people, then why do anything?  And why destroy friendships that were very real?  Nancy Nix could only harm herself by going to court to support Roger during all this.  But she did it because she’s the real deal and didn’t want to see something terrible happen to her friend.  And that friend turned against her because he didn’t want to go after the bigger fish that brought him harm in the first place, which does not come out well in a primary consideration, that could become bloody for no good reason.  In these kinds of things, you have to fight the right fight, not the one that you think is easiest, and turning on friends isn’t very enduring.

People Should Be Working More: At least 70 hours per week

It’s interesting. I put a video I did on YouTube about work ethic, which has received many opinions in the form of comments, which have stirred people.  But as I have always said, what better use of time do people have?  Why do people think it’s OK to rush home from work only to sit in front of a television and rot away?  Most people waste their free time thinking about really dumb things, and I would argue that the world would be a lot better off if people worked more, rather than less.  I think one of the dumbest things we have ever done as a society is to devise a 40-hour work week because it’s an artificial constraint that we have imposed on ourselves, and for what?  People are not better off for it.  Often when they don’t work enough in life, they don’t have the money they need to do everything, and having too much leisure time is the devil’s playground, and they end up doing dumb, unstructured things with their time.  Most people are better off working for a boss that knows how to do productive things in life, and if people would just work more, they would have much better lives.  This notion that people need to be away from work is a destructive one and was brought to us by the communist movement that came to America through labor unions.  So why is saying that people should work more so controversial?  Well, it hits a nerve because it challenges a previous assumption that a lot of people don’t realize they have adopted, that has been bad for them.  Too much free time for people who don’t know how to do good things with it is terrible for people, and making money is a good way to overcome personal problems and work toward goals.  And that most people would be much better off if they only worked a little more, around 70 hours per week.

I never celebrate Labor Day because it’s a union holiday, and they have brought society too many artificial constraints.  People were far better off when they worked more, especially on farms where they worked from sunup to sundown and sat around the kitchen table tired at the end of it.  And talking about their shared experiences together as a family.  I would add that people were even better off after all that when they shared Bible verses and fell asleep next to a roaring fire in the fireplace, never turning on the television, because they were too tired to do so.  What was attacked through the union movement was the American work ethic, which was an import from Europe and all their Marxism, and it never had any place in the American workplace.  The whole notion that the owners and industrialists are evil because they want to make money, and should be stopped by radicalizing the work force, was a weapon against American capitalism, and it was terrible from the start.  It never had a constructive place in our society and was always meant to destroy a foreign rival with an export of ideas that would cripple our industrial capacity, an artificial constraint on our manufacturing ability.  Especially after World War II, how we responded to the global war effort was terrifying to our enemy because of how Americans willingly approached their work.  Back then, America was fresh off the hard work of American expansionism. Many people who worked in the factories then were fresh off being raised on farms by good, structured families.  And the result was terrifying to the lazy of the world who didn’t have a very good work ethic. 

Many people these days rush home from work only to do what?  Sit in front of the television and waste their time.  It’s not like they are sitting at the dinner table with their families talking about their day.  They have adopted ideas that were bad for them by the very lazy Marxists in the labor movement who purposefully wanted to cripple American manufacturing with artificial constraints intent to limit American production capacity. I have never worked a 40-hour work week in my adult life.  I work on various things about 90 hours per week and still spend a lot of time with my family.  But I don’t waste much time doing things that aren’t productive.  And I find that is the way it is with most people who are successful in life.  They work a lot and don’t have much time to waste.  When Elon Musk says similar things, it’s not because he’s a billionaire looking to exploit labor.  He’s a billionaire because he doesn’t personally waste time—the same with Trump.  President Trump has always had a good work ethic.  That’s why he has been a successful person.  One of the keys to success is not to follow the time-wasting imposed on our culture by foreign adversaries, and to work more in life, instead of less.  And people who do are a lot happier.  Not only do they make more money, but they can also use it for private enterprises.  But they have a sense of purpose in life because they are doing good things with their life instead of wasting them.

This is important to think about because if we want to Make America Great Again, it comes from more than just bringing jobs back to America from foreign markets that they fled to in the first place.  We have to admit to ourselves one of the reasons those jobs left, and it was because Americans accepted stupid labor practices given to them by Marxist infiltrators in the labor movement that were destructive to a good, productive society.  And those jobs were left for places where people worked hard and were happy to do it.  Hard work is good for the mind, not bad.  Too much leisure time is destructive if not filled with other productive behaviors, unless you work hard to build family relationships.  Or working hard to build community improvement.  You are wasting your time if you aren’t being productive at something, and when the proposal for the 40-hour work week was presented, it assumed that work was something our society shouldn’t be doing, so they were looking to do the least amount of it possible.  And the results have not been good.  So, for my part, I think people should be thinking about doubling the amount of work they do in a week to keep their minds on positive activities and toward something instead of giving themselves artificial constraints.  If you are broke because you only work 40 hours per week, that’s on you.  You should be working more on other things and filling your life with productivity.  Not working at least 8 hours per day, rushing home to sit in front of the television, and eating things that make you sick anyway.  You should work longer and more days of the week and do positive things toward self-improvement, all hours of the day.  You will find a better family life and be a better person.  People have many problems because they don’t work hard enough at more things in their lives, and things tend to crumble around them.  And that was the intent of the enemy when they infiltrated our labor practices from the start.  And it’s up to us to correct it now.

Why Trump’s Tariffs are Great: China was built completely off stolen money, and that is coming to an end

It is stunning how stupid so many people are, especially regarding Trump’s tariffs.  People need economic lessons.  I majored in economics in college, which I hated.  I thought it was boring, that the professors were stupid, and that the students were even worse.  I probably read too many books before I ever stepped into a college classroom for my good because I couldn’t get into the going through the motions thing to endure so much stupidity.  But I knew, even thirty years ago, that they were teaching Marxism in all the economic schools, which was surprising, given that Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations should have been the entry textbook.  Nobody in America should be studying economics without understanding Adam Smith and putting their arms entirely around capitalism.  We aren’t a communist, socialist, or Marxist nation with a parasitic economic system, and all those traders on Wall Street have fallen into the schools of Marxism as their reference point, and that’s on them.  I’ve known about the influence Marxism has had in our political and economic fields for a long time, but this stupidity even shocks me.  People should know better what Trump is doing.  And thank goodness he is doing it.  Our trade imbalances were put in place for one reason: to redistribute America’s wealth to other nations, to loot the only real capitalist country in the world and feed it to all the crazy lunatic communist and socialist countries of the far east and Europe.  Yes, China, to those who don’t know, which appears to be most people working in the finance industry, is a communist country that has made all of its money off stealing it from the United States.  China did not create wealth and become the powerhouse it is today because it did something better in the world than everyone else.  They did it because they were built off stolen money, and Trump’s trade tariffs are designed to take that money back, as it should have been all along.

Go ahead and mark it on your calendars, these renegotiated trade deals from Trump will immediately infuse the American economy with trillions of dollars of new revenue, which has been part of our exporting portfolio.  The price of oil is coming down.  We will soon be shipping energy all over the world again, which will be worth trillions more.  And on the frontier of DOGE, we are going to address many of the assumptions about the size and cost of government that will pave the way for the future, where running our economy in the black will become the norm.  This is how you get there, and everyone should understand that.  They should have known this all along.  This should be taught in our colleges.  It’s basic economics from the perspective of Adam Smith’s capitalism.  I have several copies of Smith’s Wealth of Nations that I have read through so many times that the pages are nearly falling out of all the copies.  I have one in my office that I recently purchased because it comes up so often that people want to see it, and those older copies weren’t in a condition to be looked through without falling apart in their hands.  So, why isn’t that the case with everyone? Because it should be, otherwise we can’t even have a foundation discussion on economics unless that essential reference point is understood.  All these traders who focused on stock value should have seen the signs; it’s not like we didn’t tell you what was happening.  What they have been dealing with was fake value.  What they will be dealing with is actual value, reset by these tariffs, which puts the power position back into the United States, where it should always have been.

I want to mention a couple of things as a reminder of how we arrived at this point.  They are conspiratorial, but certainly not untrue.  Not convenient for people who would rather not know.  But Covid was a bioweapon created and released in China, which was accelerated to the world stage to knock Trump out of office during an election year.  COVID-19 was released shortly after Trump implemented the tariffs against China in the first months of 2020.  The free money was coming to an end for them, and they conspired with a lot of forces, especially at the World Economic Forum, to release a pandemic in the world to allow for the desired Great Reset of the global economy into a fully micromanaged Marxist perspective where China would rule the world from that position.  If you don’t understand that, go back and review all the evidence, and you will see that it was clearly what happened.  The other thing that happened was the conspiracy of the Federal Reserve to prop up radical leftist losers like Larry Fink at BlackRock to essentially use him to artificially prop up the stock market with a balloon that was always going to burst.  But they thought that by the time it did, the dollar would be gone and we’d be on a digital currency, and they’d never get caught for what they’d done.  The Fed and Wall Street conspired to print phony money with no gold backing, using it to inflate the market with cash that would be laundered through the stock exchanges, thereby creating entirely fictitious value. 

That’s what we do in real estate all the time, where we built a house for $ 50,000 30 years ago.  The house is the best house it was ever going to be when it started.  As it ages, it starts to fall apart and requires frequent renovation.  But our expectation of that value increases.  Today, that house is worth 200K or 300K, that same house, because we expect a Ponzi scheme where the future will pay for the profits of the past, until, of course, you hit the brick wall of diminishing marginal returns, which is where a lot of young people are today.  They can’t afford to pay $300,000 for a house that is still only worth $50,000 in absolute value. That’s what the Fed and BlackRock, State Street, and Vanguard did to the world’s money supply, and they thought they would get away with it because the world would switch to a digital currency before the balloon burst.  However, instead, we elected Trump, and he was intent on correcting this mess because he understood it from the inside out. He promised voters that he would do precisely what he is doing now: bring the value of the world’s economy home, which is what is happening now.  All those jobs shipped all over the globe because of horrendous economic policies will come home for their survival.  Prices in America will decrease due to increased competition.  And our economy will be awash in cash, lots of it.  And quickly.  The only people who will suffer are those who were betting on the demise of America, which includes many traders on Wall Street.  That is on them.  They were warned, and they placed their bets against America anyway; so, no amount of crying about it now will put the genie back in the bottle.  I am very proud of Trump.  But what he’s doing isn’t strange or unusual.  I’m just happy he had the guts to do it, and now everyone will see for themselves what they should have learned in school – how the economy works.  And Karl Marx was a slack-jawed loser that nobody should have listened to, ever.  And for all those colleges who taught all these young kids who are now grown adults Marxism, they should be giving back what those educations cost, because they crippled people, they didn’t help them, and now they are too stupid to function in the world.

What is Required for a New Lakota School Board Member: Its a system that needs to die

Coming up in the Lakota schools soon is an opportunity to elect three more conservative school board members, and to answer the question I have been asked regularly: am I running for one of them?  Because many people want me to.  Not to give a politically worthless answer, but in my opinion, people who genuinely appreciate the system should be the ones to run it.  I do not like the system, and I have no interest in working with people like that.  I view education as a reform effort, and I believe the amount of time required to fulfill a school board role exceeds 70 hours per week.   It’s not a helicopter position as it’s now for many people who are currently in it.  So I would advise people who want to help fix the system and are willing to do that level of work to let us know, and we’ll help you connect the dots.  But as far as one of those people being me, that wouldn’t be a good idea for those wanting to save the system in some regard.  I’m accustomed to being entirely in charge of the things I do; I’m not a very good consensus player.  I don’t even think the design of school boards in public education is correct; it needs a strong CEO-type to oversee these radical superintendents.  I don’t like the lawyers.  I don’t like the teacher’s unions.  I don’t like the way they are funded.  I don’t like what they teach.  I don’t think they work long enough hours, regardless of the level of employees, administrative, or the teachers themselves.  I support scrapping the whole thing and starting over.  However, there are many parents with school-age children who want to make the best of a difficult situation, and these are the types of individuals who should be leading the school. 

As far as holding on to the way things were in the past?  There is no chance of that.  I was watching the protests this weekend at the Statehouse against Trump and Elon Musk over their fears that Social Security will be cut, which isn’t even on the table.  However, the level of stupidity exhibited by some of those participants is genuinely overwhelming.  There is no talking to people like that with reason.  They can’t understand anything that needs to be changed, so, in my opinion, they should all be scrapped.  They are not prepared for what needs to be done.  I would argue that they aren’t even qualified to be parents.  I feel sorry for the children born into families with the kind of parents who go to these anti-Trump protests.  It’s not their fault their parents are idiots.  But I see no hope in any of those people; they are the result of a society that has experimented with Marxism, and they accepted those thoughts as a new reality.  And that is not the future of education.  There is only one way things are going, and no amount of crying like a baby is going to change anything.  The funding of public schools needs to change; it will change.  The government funding of schools, with unmanaged money moving from the federal government back to the local level, is not a future prospect.  It can’t be, and it never should have been.  People have seen what that system gave them, and they aren’t willing to continue with that method.  The per-pupil costs of educating students should be at least half what they currently are.  When I talk to people who are out there carrying signs in favor of preserving that system, they don’t understand it, and they never will.  Education has to be competitive; we need competition with other teachers, with other districts, and with other states.  The teacher’s union model of everyone getting a collective bargaining agreement for subpar work is over.

And as I say that, people will tell me tomorrow, and the day after that, and the week after that—that’s why I should be on the school board.  Consider what you’re saying and think about what you know about me.  Yes, I can speak very politically, and I work very well with people who hate me and plot against me with everything they can come up with.  My life is far more complicated than the most ostentatious Shakespeare play.  There isn’t any way for my life to be reflected in art because nobody would believe it, including the most conspiratorial of Shakespeare’s works.  My idea of the perfect school board member was and is Darbi Boddy.  She genuinely cared about making the school a great one, and she represented a sizeable demographic group within the Lakota school system.  And people from all political sides conspired to get rid of her.  Who in their right mind thinks I would put up with that?  Darby handled things very well and played by the rules, paying her legal fees to defend herself in ridiculous ways.  She never should have had to do that.  And I can say, I wouldn’t.  I would burn the whole system down from the inside out, along with all the people associated with it.  So be careful what you wish for.  I want what’s best for the people of my community.  However, what’s best for me is what people who deal with me receive, and I’m not sure people can see past the results they want, which are undoubtedly attainable.  But what would they do with the wreckage in the aftermath? That’s where the real trick is. 

I think there is a way to do it, but as I mentioned, I believe the job of a school board member at Lakota schools requires at least 70 hours a week.  It takes that long to read everything you need to read and speak with all the people you need to talk to.  The school board meetings need to be more prolonged, more frequent, and include more detailed information.  And the people working together need to build a team, not to resemble a Shakespearean drama.  And when I say that, we need three school board members who will work together, not against each other, and merge into the political faction of the teacher unions.  I have a very dominant personality in personal conduct, and I excel when I can give orders.  But consensus building is not my thing, and it never will be.  I’m the one you call to take the head shot.  Not the one who cleans up the mess.  And Lakota schools are a mess, and there is a lot to clean up.  And the people doing that need to like each other and to represent the community in the best way possible.  But there will be a lot of hard talks and times in the next two to three years.  Really, until Vivek Ramaswamy is governor of Ohio, we won’t be able to truly fix public education for good with competitive models and funding tied to the child, not the uncompetitive local school.  The property tax racket has to come to an end.  It has given us a garbage product taught by garbage people who are worthless in every category, and it’s time to put all that to an end.  As those protesters increasingly do in places like the Ohio Statehouse, they aren’t in the realm of reality, and that isn’t the fault of the rest of the world.  It is their social dysfunction to think that a school system can continue to get unlimited funds to sponsor a poor work ethic and to teach Marxism to the next generation isn’t even a consideration for the future.  I will not say everyone but me should do such a hard job.  But when it comes to delivery, be careful what you wish for.  My bedside manner on this topic does not come with any handholding.  I’ve been ready to pull the plug on the patient for a long time.  It’s a system that needs to die.

Good on the Ohio Senate: Getting DEI out of colleges

Good on Jerry Cirino in the Ohio Senate for introducing the SB1 Bill, which Governor DeWine just signed into law.  And good work to the GOP in both Houses at the Ohio Statehouse.  SB1 is the Enact Advanced Higher Education Act, which targets reform of higher education by banning diversity, equity, and inclusion programs (DEI), prohibiting faculty strikes, and implementing various other reforms at public colleges and universities.  DEI programs have been a disaster for our culture because they do not inspire greatness, but conformity to a standard that does not produce success in society.  This Bill is the first of many to come, which is necessary in public education in general because it has become so severe and out of control that there is no way to work with it any longer.  Equity and inclusion are not communist strategies, as clearly outlined in Marx’s written works, and do not inspire greatness in society.  It is a communist value system that does not belong in a competitive, capitalist culture.  What is disguised as fairness is a radical left-wing weapon designed to undermine our society from the inside out, and rot the minds of our children before they are ever able to fend for themselves as adults.  When this bill was first introduced, it naturally caused a lot of comment and protest. Therefore, it was good that the Senate stuck together and rallied behind Jerry Cirinio.  We need a lot more of these kind of bold bills in the Ohio Statehouse from both sides.  For too long, we let a small minority of communist oriented voices speak and cry for things because they were the only ones who showed up to the hearings, and politicians assumed that meant that they were in the majority.  And that the media would take up the cause and carry communist ideas that they would support by default.  But not this time.

To achieve the kind of competition that Vivek Ramaswamy aims to bring to Ohio through a merit-based pay system, we need significantly more of the 2025 version of SB1.  Most teachers, when you talk to them one on one, without the politics of a teacher’s union lingering in the background, agree with merit-based, competitive pay models.  They probably even vote for Republicans.  And increasingly they support Trump in the White House even if they don’t admit to it in public.  DEI programs have been horrible in the private sector, and they have slowed down the world horribly.  Everywhere we go these days, from drive-thru windows at McDonald’s to advanced manufacturing companies, we have a massive global society that can’t do much of anything right, especially hit a production target.  The quality of products in every industrial sector is declining, mainly because almost every HR department in the country has made DEI a priority, where compassion has become the standard, rather than practicality.  You can feel sorry for someone coming from a rough background, but do you want them making your hamburger at a drive-thru?  A society of broken people has given us production standards not focused on doing a good job, but on hiring people because of their skin color, sexual orientation, and even age status, rather than pushing employees to improve so they can compete for the best job and inspire great production.  Hard work has gone out of fashion mainly because DEI programs disguised as fairness have killed it, and Karl Marx is laughing in his grave at the poison he infected the world with, and many terrible people made into policy because they wanted to rule the means of production from behind a veil of control and influence.  DEI programs have been taught in schools for decades, and they have been horrible for the subsequent generations trying to make it in the adult world, and that compliance standard has been way off the mark. 

At a Lakota School Board meeting recently where they were complaining about just 9 million dollars in lost revenue due to charter schools providing options for kids to attend and to take their money with them, one of the new guys, Doug Horton said to the members of the meeting that he supports Ed Choice programs, but that he essentially didn’t, talking out of both sides of his mouth, because he didn’t think people were leaving the school due to a political exodus.  Parents concerned about Lakota’s support of DEI programs and Critical Race Theory did not believe these factors were the reason students were being pulled from the school to attend other educational options.  And as he said it, he said it with a straight face as if everyone was supposed to believe it.  That is precisely the kind of person that DEI has produced in the world, and why parents are growing increasingly dissatisfied with the public education environment.  I have heard for a long time at Lakota that school board members would deny that Critical Race Theory, which is a spawn of DEI programs, was even happening.  They would tell complaining parents that there was no evidence of Critical Race Theory.  You know why they said that?  Because they refused to look at it, and their public policy, established by many thousands of lawyers across the nation, has a standard policy when it comes to all DEI programs, which is to deny, deny, and deny, until you die.  And even then, continue the practice.  Lie to the parents.  Lie to the people who pay the tuition at these now worthless colleges, and make suckers out of them in public.  And when they talk about these things in public testimony, turn off their mic so there is no record of the exchange. 

School board people like Horton at Lakota know why parents are leaving the district, but what they say in public indicates an intent to mislead.  Just as they say that their purpose is to implement political DEI projects into the schools no matter what parents think about it, because that is their key to federal money, to build a management structure of DEI programs no matter what people really want, because as education institutions, they are all about money.  They don’t try to gain independence from federal mandates and state laws that are attached to funding because their teacher unions are primarily concerned with maintaining the lowest standard they can get away with to maximize their financial gain.  And DEI for them has been a massive cover story of corruption and deceit disguised as helpful fairness. It has been everything but fair, and it has made our students and our productive society much worse by bringing to our competitive workplaces communist ideas that have worked nowhere in the world, in any place.  They don’t work in China either, by the way.  The people there have a strong work ethic due to their culture, and they can afford to throw bodies at problems.  But communism as a DEI model doesn’t work anywhere, and any exchange program that partners with China should have never occurred in an education program.  China is a communist country, and there is nothing we need to learn from them.  The members of the Ohio Senate were wise not to take the bait and learn a valuable lesson from the Trump administration.  Stop listening to these communist fools, such as the dead weight protesting the signing of SBI in Ohio.  We don’t want losers like that setting the standards in Ohio, or anywhere.  Listening to them, as we have in the past, has not improved our world. Instead, they made it all, much, much, worse.

Marc Elias and Mark Pomerantz Committed Sedition Against America: They have to be punished and more for what they did

It can’t be forgiven or forgotten what Marc Elias and Mark Pomerantz did to President Trump to commit election fraud.  It’s not enough to deal with what they actually did, but we have to consider the intent, just as any legal matter would traditionally, and justifiably, be settled.  Because unless we punish them, and punish them hard with years in jail, a loss of their incomes and reputation, and perhaps even worse, these people and many others will do it again.  We’re talking about what Trump said about them when he gave his recent speech to the Department of Justice.  And I’ll go one further: they would have gotten away with it if it wasn’t for January 6th and the anger over election fraud.  These people had to somewhat play by the rules they intended to break because they were scared of people coming uncorked on them because of what they saw once Trump was removed from office.  So they at least tried to give the illusion that they were playing by the rules.  But at a minimum what the Democrat lawyer Marc Elias did to support Joe Biden’s election theft of 2020 can only be viewed legally as sedition and a conspiracy against our nation.  To further cause massive abuse of the power system in place, Mark Pomerantz left his job as a federal prosecutor and joined the Manhattan District Attorney to go after the Trump Organization itself and destroy the past and future president’s access to income.  It should never be forgotten that if Trump had not won the 2024 election, he would have been sentenced to hundreds of years in prison and would have been driven to bankruptcy.  Both of these guys went for Trump’s jugular without even thinking about what might happen if he were to win another election and be restored to the White House.  They intended to destroy Trump and to send a message to the rest of us never to play in their sandbox of Washington, D.C., again.

We all know attorneys like Marc Elias and cutthroat losers like Mark Pomerantz.  They knew Trump won the election, so they openly sought to suppress the evidence and to run out the litigation methods in the courts by using time against the concept of justice, knowing full well what they were doing.  And to keep the cover-up going, they had to destroy Trump so he could never afford to run for President again.  The message was that they had control of the system, not the voters and that they were going to use the legal system to remove a president from power.  There were a lot more people involved than just these two, but they willingly played their part in a coup of a people’s pick in the White House.  And at a minimum, they committed sedition against the United States. Sedition by technical definition, is defined as conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or government.  It typically involves actions or words intended to undermine or overthrow established governance, encouraging resistance, insurrection, or disloyalty among citizens or officials.  Sedition differs from treason in that it doesn’t require an act of war against a state but only a mere advocacy or conspiracy to qualify.  And by that definition, Marc Elias and Mark Pomerantz committed sedition against the sitting government, which was the Republican President Trump.  Our means of resolving political disputes are elections, and they sought to tamper with them, in one way by fighting challenges in court because the process exceeded the timelines, so Elias could run out the clock in court filings because of the need to put Biden in as president was faster than the courts could process the evidence.  Elias also knew that the courts and the political machine itself could not afford to let people know the truth about the election fraud they had used to get rid of Trump.  They didn’t like Trump and they all did what they did to remove him from office.  They didn’t expect people to know what they were doing and stay angry about it for the next four years. https://youtu.be/3TRkuSGkx9c?si=FXzMhXZLkjmsZ8Mp

And Mark Pomerantz was going to validate what Elias was doing by ensuring that there was never another head-to-head matchup that would show what they did to cheat in the election.  In 2020, COVID-19 was used to change election standards, which allowed for massive cheating, which they couldn’t do again in another election.  So, the big fear, once Trump survived everything, was to get rid of his ability to run again with court challenges that would destroy him as a person because they had to maintain the coverup of the 2020 election fraud.  Once Trump was on stage with Biden for that June 2024 CNN debate, everyone knew, especially Marc Elias, that they would not be able to get 81 million votes for Joe Biden again.  They didn’t get it the first time because they had allowed voter irregularities to be counted as actual votes, and those people weren’t real.  And with all the eyes on the situation, they knew they had to try something else, so they put Kamala Harris in the role and pushed out Joe because if they had a head-to-head matchup, it would be obvious what they had all done four years prior, and they couldn’t afford that.

So don’t imagine that everyone has suddenly become cooperative and that Marc Elias and Mark Pomerantz are victims looking over their shoulders at a president who named them precisely at a speech at the DOJ where there is a new, aggressive Attorney General. And that it’s unfair to go after political enemies.  No, these guys are more than political enemies.  They inspired sedition against our country, against our election system, so that they could erode trust in our election system at the most fundamental level.  And they weren’t just trying to destroy Trump and his family.  They were sending a message to everyone who supported him that we didn’t have control of our government.  They were in charge, and if they had been allowed to stand, if they had succeeded in keeping Trump from running again, which they tried everything in their power to do, we would have officially lost our government to this fourth branch Deep State government where lawyers like these two seditious characters ran cover for a corrupt system that steals money from the people and gives it to themselves as the corrupt aristocracy of nonrepresentative government.  And they all got caught, and they are only being friendly and cooperative now because they hope their guilt is never revealed.  But Trump called these two out because they must be an example.  And he will slow cook them, let them sweat it out because they deserve punishment and more.  They are evil people, and any capacity for compassion toward their intentions has long expired.  And they have to be punished for the sedition they utilized against the United States of America.  Not because they went after Trump.  But they tried to steal our government from us and then cover up their crime with further crimes.  And we can’t have that.  So they must be punished in a way that will give pause to the many others lingering in the background, thinking of doing worse if they can get away with it.
