Good to See the People of Fairfield Schools Aren’t Stupid: In Lakota, corruption put Christina French in a seat to protect the radical teacher’s union

I was happy to see that the people in the Fairfield school district, who just voted down their ridiculous school levy, were not stupid.  As I have always said and will continue to say, you are stupid if you vote for a school levy.  These public schools are cesspools of Democrat politics, and they rot the children from the inside out, purposely.  So, feeding those ridiculous Democrats incubation factories is stupid.  The schools are controlled by radicalized laborers who want to be paid too much to do too little and offer a community very little in return for the massive investment.  So, in the Fairfield schools just north of Cincinnati outside the I-275 loop, a community that is only a fraction of what it once was, they said no to their tax levy, which is a good sign of things to come.  People have learned a lot over the last few years, especially since all the Covid lockdowns exposed this clown game for what it truly is, and more people than ever are ready to admit that public schools are only a free babysitting service for parents too busy, to take their kids anywhere else because they are too poor to take their kids to a private school or find some other alternative.  Public schools are like public toilets; nobody cares about what happens inside until you have to use them.  And when you use them, they are always in a state of degradation.  I love education, but we don’t do nearly enough of it.  But public schools are not my idea of education.  They are more like prisons of social conditioning to feel all the wrong things and express all the wrong values.  I don’t believe public schools got it right, especially over the last few decades.  They have become propaganda factories for Democrat politics, and any good that was intended with them has long gone from social analysis.  Nothing says “I don’t love you, kid” more than sending them to the rat race public school attached to your zip code. 

With all that said, I have had many, many, many people ask me to run for school board in my community of Lakota.   And we’re not talking about slack-jawed losers but brilliant and influential people.  The game has always been evident to me, but for the sake of those people, I have tried to do whatever I can to make public education better for the scope of a community.  And in management, saying no is a significant first step to whatever Democrats think they need.  Even if they ask for an extra gallon of milk, inflated, wasteful people who look to the government to fill their bottomless pit needs must be told no.  That is certainly true regarding wage levels, which are directly associated with the inflated budgets that public schools utilize.  And to have someone say no often is why people have wanted me to be on the school board.  But I would never waste my time on such a fruitless enterprise, especially since the name of the game is to have closet Democrats running the school board to pave the way for the teacher unions to have easy contract negotiations.  And the whole game is set up like a parasite to a community’s property values, like a gun to the head of a robbery victim.  It’s just not a positive experience in any way, significantly once kids grow up beyond the fifth grade and stop having parent presentations to see the art their kids did in school pasted all over the wall as if to justify everything.  Once the kids get into middle and high school, where puberty is running away with logic, everything gets a lot less cute and useless for the dollar value.

However, I’ve tried to help put conservative school board members on the board in my school district of Lakota several times over the years.  But a pattern emerges that is quite obvious.  Rival school board members who don’t like the conservatives use woke laws to protect them from voter intentions, which is the case with Darbi Boddy in Lakota.  She was a Tea Party type conservative on the school board, and that group worked hard, just as they did Todd Parnell before her, to use woke rules to remove members they didn’t like, then the board would override the pick of the public and appoint their liberal members.  In this case, because of a legal technicality driven by a bunch of people who might otherwise call themselves conservatives, a court order kept Darbi from attending school board meetings, which, after 90 days, allowed the Lakota school board to vote her off the board and appoint a new member, without going to the taxpayers.  In this case, it ended up being Christina French after a long list of excessively liberal names offered themselves as options.  French is not a conservative, let’s just put it nicely.  But she represents the kind of people that the teacher union wants on the school board, and as the out-of-control costs stack up into chaos at Lakota, they try to do what Fairfield just tried to do, with tax increases in more overt liberalism as policy, don’t say I didn’t try to warn you.

The community Republicans should have stood behind Darbi better than they did.  Isaac Adi, who ran as a conservative for the board, voted to put French in Darbi’s seat, and he’s the one who caused all the trouble in the first place.  Darbi shouldn’t have let her temper get the better of her, just as Todd Parnell shouldn’t have, but these people can infuriate you.  And they can support child molesters and break all kinds of laws and get away with it because they are Democrats.  The rules are only there to control Republicans because we have allowed that system to manifest that way and make conservative politics, which is, in the majority, a passive role in the education business.  This is why public education is failing everywhere and why it costs so much to get so little.  Because there are so many RINOs, which was undoubtedly the case with Darbi, they didn’t back her, so they get to deal with Christina French, Julie Shaffer, and those other radical Democrats.  Many of them probably call themselves Republicans at wine tastings, but their behavior is overtly liberal, and it shows in their spending habits.  No matter who we put on the Lakota school board, this will always be the result.  Republicans have to walk around on egg shells while the Democrats are dancing on the tables naked and laying face down in the bathroom by the toilet at education conferences, and they get away with everything, because the teacher’s unions wants such fools in charge of their budget.  See why?  Which is why I say, and will continue to say, if you vote for a school levy you are stupid.  I can at least add to that that I’ve tried to help make school boards better, but the future of public education is to put the funding to the child, not the zip code, and make the schools earn their money, drive down their costs, and attract children to their enterprise through competition.  Of course, the public schools won’t be able to afford government union wage rates, but that’s the point.  That doesn’t benefit anybody but the parasites who have access to the next generation of children.  And if you want to fix education and help kids access learning, that’s the only next thing to do.  Everything else is nonsense.  More money doesn’t help the kids at all. It only increases corruption, as we have seen in Lakota over many years.  The more money, the more corruption, and the process that got rid of Darbi Boddy and put Christina French in her place is corrupt beyond repair.

The CIA Behind the Terrorist Attack in Moscow: ISIS was a creation of Barack Obama and his globalist friends

You know you have lost the public when the first thing everyone thought after ISIS claimed responsibility for the terrorist attack at a Russian entertainment venue in Moscow was that the CIA was behind it.  That’s not just conspiracy theories anymore, but ordinary people, and if you didn’t notice, the story died within a few days, leaving all these globalists reeling as a reaction.  The old games aren’t working anymore, and the CIA’s involvement in those games is resented by the taxpayers who fund them.  The CIA has not been working on behalf of The United States of America, but the Corporation of America, the globalists who have been trying to subdue the Constitution for well over a hundred years now.  The CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) brings very little to our nation, especially for what they cost.  After what they did to perform a coup against a popularly picked President Trump in 2020, along with activism from the FBI, people have been more open about their feelings about this secretive group.  Based on the evidence, if the CIA were disbanded today and every one of their employees picked up a job at the local McDonald’s, security of America’s borders would increase dramatically, and our local drive-thrus would get faster because the employees would be better served.  Because that’s about all they are suitable for.  The CIA causes trouble; they don’t solve problems.  And if there is danger in the world, it’s usually them causing it to drive social narratives in the direction of globalism everywhere.  The creation of the CIA occurred in post-war 1947, along with several other dumb, globalist ideas, and America has not been better off for it.  And the Moscow terrorist attack is just such an example.  It’s not that a terrorist attack occurred in Russia by Ukrainians trying to put an end to the war.   But it is really about if the CIA did not exist, would there be a war with Ukraine, let alone a terrorist attack?

That ISIS claimed responsibility seems a little thin, considering that Russian authorities caught many of the terrorists trying to flee back over the border to Ukraine, where they wanted to be at least seen.  These were not your typical ISIS terrorist groups of Islamic radicalism functioning in the Near East.  My skepticism has its roots in my love of biblical archaeology, where political forces who want to use religion to control modern power distribution are preventing the excavation of essential landmarks from India to Egypt through terrorist discourse from creating just enough chaos that knowledge can’t take root in known history.  The same logic could be applied to this Ukraine situation where NATO provoked Russia into a baited attack to justify massive wealth redistribution in the region, and behind the scenes of this enormous taxpayer-funded scam is the CIA working their mechanisms of deceit behind every media propaganda distribution channel.  Much of the war with Ukraine could be blamed on CIA tampering in the region to lure Putin into attacking their former territory, as Biden had been briefed beforehand.  The days when Americans would accept the reports given by the CIA are long over, and for good reason.  They lost trust in them based on their behavior, and Americans did not want to be involved in another CIA-manipulated war.  After World War II, the CIA attempted to drag America into every national conflict as an excuse to advance globalism, as the United Nations views it, which was created in 1945.  Many things happened a few years after that War to End All Wars.  Israel, for instance, was created as a nation in 1948.  The Roswell event occurred in 1947 as well; see a pattern?  The late 1940s, going into the 1950s and the counter-culture 60s, were filled with political manipulations designed to destroy American sovereignty and a belief in ingenuity and compliance to forces more significant than even God. 

It’s been the CIA that is most thought of when we talk about UFOs, whether they exist or not, and what they intend to do.  UFO events didn’t just start in 1947 with Roswell; those events certainly shaped our reaction to them.  And behind it, all was the CIA trying to establish a perpetual nanny state of taxpayer government expansion because Americans would see the need for protection from all these mysterious forces.  And who wanted to fight in another war like World War II?  So, people hoped that the CIA might keep another Hitler from being cultivated by the secret societies of Europe for another international conflict.  Instead, we ended up fighting Korea and Vietnam to stop communism even as the KGB, in an apparent alliance with the CIA, let communism grow in our college campuses, and our music through groups like the Beatles, let drugs poison our youth and bring shame and scandal come to our nation so that people might give up their love of national borders, and become global citizens in service to the United Nations.  For many decades now, people have had to slug through the secretive effects of the CIA and their NATO creations to move the minds of the masses like cattle to a slaughterhouse.  And people have become numb to the tactics to the point where nothing the CIA says anymore is trusted. 

When Trump says that Obama created ISIS, that is based on historical knowledge.  That the CIA got caught yet again trying to tamper with global politics, prop up a threat of an Islamic caliphate that was ultimately the creation of the forces who propped up Barack Obama into the White House from the living room of Bill Ayers, the Weather Underground Terrorist.  ISIS was designed to make Americans feel less safe and to throw infinite resources toward the efforts of globalism for protection.  But without the CIA or Barack Obama, would there have been an ISIS to begin with?  Likely not.  And now that Biden is in office, we are supposed to believe they mysteriously rose to power again as a bunch of out-of-work assassins willing to do anything for a cup of coffee, which is what was revealed when the Russians captured these most recent terrorists in Moscow.  This was an apparent attempt to get Americans to send more money to Ukraine and to sympathize with an end to the war because appeasement and peer pressure work so well in the world.  Russia might be compelled through international pressure to end its border dispute with Ukraine because ISIS was mad at them.  So goes the logic of the fools at the CIA and their bureaucrats desperate for American money in NATO.  And the moment that Trump would be in office again, ISIS would disappear overnight because the CIA would lose presidential support, which is why they conspired to get rid of Trump during the first term.  Trump was never supposed to make friends with North Korea.  We were supposed to be infinitely afraid of the North Korean kid with the bowl haircut.  Instead, we learned that he’s just a kid who loves basketball and has been given a tyrannical rule over a group of people for diverting maniacal social policy from its neighbor, China.  Another propped-up creation of globalists looking for a communist New World Order with the CIA as their enforcement wing of chaos and destruction.  Whenever people caught onto the story, another UFO conspiracy would be floated into the news cycle to give cover for all the maniacal lunatics involved in truly menacing behavior, politically.  This is why nobody believes the CIA anymore, and they are worthless to even a dime of taxpayer funding.  They cause so much trouble because people would get along much better if they didn’t exist.  And they don’t want people getting along.  And with the Russia story cooling off in the world, they needed to remind people that there was still turmoil there, for the news to take notice of.  Even at the expense of innocent lives lost.

Trump Was Always Protected Under the 8th Amendment: Playing chicken with the federal government, and winning

All you need to know about America’s domestic enemies and that they are a Marxist insurrection is in the case against Trump in New York, where the attorney general, Letitia James, pushed for an obviously unconstitutional bail amount in an effort to enforce a default and confiscate the President’s property.  This is a funny story, even as sinister as it is, because it’s the guide for how all these cases will go against Trump, but it holds for any of us.  Luckily, Trump, with the amount of wealth he has amassed over the years, is willing to play chicken with these guys and expose them from the platform of the American Presidency.   His willingness to do so has brought to the surface this obvious communist strategy so audaciously, that everyone can understand it.  However, this notion that Letitia James was going to be able to take Trump’s property and bankrupt him was never going to work.  As the radical left made up the scam, they assumed that people would abandon the American Constitution well before now, but that hasn’t happened.  By the time everyone entered the last week of March 2024, and the media speculated on the awesome power of the federal government, with all its infinite resources and ability to destroy people’s lives, the truth ended up as a lesson in civics.  Trump was, and has always been, just as we all are, protected from the government under the 8th Amendment.  This indicates that any excessive punishment imposed by the government, along with outrageous bail, was prohibited.  And given that Letitia James and Judge Engoron set the bail for Trump’s real estate case at 454 million dollars, essentially half a billion dollars, it showed that they weren’t serious about the law but were trying to do something they were legally prevented from doing.  There has never been such a bail cast against an individual before, so the definition of “excessive” was easy to establish. 

It’s pretty clear

Of course, the appeals process reduced the bail amount to something more manageable, although still excessive, but it was easier for Trump to get his hands on raw cash.  And once that occurred, the New York case fell apart, and the theatrics were concluded.  It is actually funny that Biden began to call Trump “broke” on the campaign trail because his handlers wrote it that way, according to the Marxist script they had all been following.   Trump’s attornies pleaded during the ruling because they had to, that Trump didn’t have $454 million lying around and that it was an unusual hardship.  The appeals court lowered the amount to $175 million just as Letitia James moved in to put a padlock on Trump Tower in New York to accommodate the ridiculous bail amount.  The abuse couldn’t be more apparent to the world and it ended up being a great example of the Marxist invasion of our country that a lot of people were not willing to acknowledge.  However, during this process, Trump received considerable money from his social media platform, Truth Social, so he quickly had the cash to pay the lowered bail amount and move on.  Even though even that amount will be considered “excessive” and unconstitutional in the end.  For now, Trump just pulled out a wad of cash and paid off the communists and, in the process, doubled his wealth.  Any hopes that the radical left had about Trump going broke and being forced to sell off his assets along the New York skyline were averted, and Trump entered a new era in the world of politics that nobody had ever seen before.  He had won the standoff with the federal government, which nobody had expected. 

Except I had been saying for a few years now that the 8th Amendment prevented the government from doing precisely what they were doing to Trump.  I knew what the Trump legal team was doing when they declared hardship on the excessive fine imposed by Engoron because they had to get it on the record for the appeals process.  Trump could have paid the fines and fees, but should he?  That was the real question.  But the political left gave away their fantasy of a communist world with an out-of-control government running loose and, taking people’s property and throwing them in jail without due process.  This happens everywhere, especially with the Peter Navarro case and what happened to Alex Jones, Rudy Guiliani, and Sidney Powell.  All the J6th protestors.  I find it astonishing that more lawyers didn’t catch on to the unconstitutionality of these impositions quickly.  However, before the March 2024 property confiscations, the Trump legal team finally got specific about the 8th Amendment.  And once they did, the appeals court had no option but to reduce the bail and favor in the direction of Trump.  I think this whole argument could have been destroyed in the New York case months ago by citing the 8th Amendment protections, but Trump likely wanted to bait them along like the excellent negotiator that he is, for as long as he could get away with it, pushing them to overplay their hand.  Which they did, only to drop the bomb with them at the end of the case to make a point.  And in that process, the political left salivated at the destruction of Trump and showed the world who they were. 

I would have advised Trump to destroy his enemies in the very beginning and to never let them up for air.  All these cases against Trump have the same primary objective and fall under the same constitutional protections.  But Trump is playing this as a sportsman who might fish for those big guys in the water deep under a rockface.  The point of the Constitution that is important is that it limits government and takes away the kind of power the left is addicted to, which is Chinese-style communism centrally controlled.  The entire American legal system, including all Supreme Court cases, uses the Constitution to prevent the government from doing things it might want to do against people, with property rights and wealth creation being the center of proper social norms that sustain a functioning economy.  Without that stability, you end up with an out-of-control government, which Trump wanted to show with all these theatrics.  The Trump legal team let the dumb Letitia James make a fool out of herself with excessive abuse to show the world what she was really up to.  Then, when things got serious, the Trump team played the 8th Amendment card, and that essentially destroyed the case.  But Trump was never in trouble.  Trump played the situation wonderfully and took the criticism in the media to full effect, letting everyone speculate on his destruction, even as Letitia James coordinated all this government abuse with the Biden White House.  Because they were communists, they assumed that society would “progress” beyond the Constitutional limits of the American rule of law in favor of some ridiculous United Nations model of law and judgment.  But that’s not how it is in America, and now Trump has established a new value on that law that will solidify these court battles for many years to come.  For this reason, we are all much better off.

The New York Times Admits to a Deep State: People have learned that it’s not a conspiracy theory but very real, and deadly

I never used to talk about the Deep State, especially before what they showed us of themselves before President Trump was president.  People were skeptical about the CIA and FBI; there were always people who wondered whether Barack Obama was a foreign domestic terrorist and there were people who wondered who was responsible for 9/11.  Even though I have always been a very conservative Republican, I did work to get Ross Perot elected because I thought George Bush was a globalist.  There has always been a healthy suspicion of the government, but some of us knew it was more sinister than polite society was willing to admit to, while others wanted to remain blissfully unaware.  But people did not talk about a Deep State, an unelected group of government radicals who run everything.  Julian Assange and Snowden were warning us about the NSA’s nanny state and how much power they sought to acquire, and the big social media companies were assets for that data collection.  But people were not looking for that overt government control to rule their lives with every breath.  That is, until we saw what they were willing to do to keep Trump out of office, and after all those methods failed, we ended up with Covid, essentially to steal the 2020 election.  Then we watched that Deep State reveal itself and show what big teeth they had and how vicious they were willing to be.  And now, going into 2024, much of that Deep State is like the dog you tried to pet but bit off your arm.  People do not trust them or even the concept.  And now it’s not just conspiracy theory types who dare to question the trustworthiness of their government, but this extended out into the realm of ordinary people just minding their own business, filling out their March Madness brackets, and trying to use a sale at the grocery to buy one of something and get another free. 

But the New York Times, the paper of record for many, is trying to do damage control in the New York market over this very issue in attempting to put a lovely face on what the Deep State is, which they offer is just your average, every day, government worker: your postal worker, local regulator, school teacher, and inspection engineer.  The suggestion is that we are all Deep Staters, and our neighbors, our friends, are those people we should be concerned about.  I hate government employees because they are often driven without market value in mind, and they are created for the needs of the government, not an economy that represents society in general.  They generally make 30% more than market value demands and tend to be lazy because there are no suitable measures to extract performance from their positions.  The Deep State is not those people. Instead, and this is why the proposition is so insidious, we call it a Deep State because it runs under the layers of conventional government to pose a phantom menace to the rest of society.  Essentially, the Deep State is when the government seeks the power of the government to gain power for itself.  And in this case, it’s a collection of intelligence agencies in our taxpayer-funded government that uses a made-up 4th branch of government to suppress the public in a direction that the public doesn’t want to go.  Most obviously, with President Trump, people picked him in 2016 to run their government for them because they read his books and watched his television shows. They wanted him to bring those management skills to the office of the President and see how things went. 

And in truth, things went well.  President Trump did much better at running the government than the average government worker, and in protest, we saw just how radical many of those government workers were and what they were willing to do to hold power.  And now, going into 2024, as we have seen the full weaponization of government to throw people in jail, knock out political rivals, and abuse the public to hold power that nobody even knew the Deep State had, we have seen a very vicious dog biting everyone to protect a perceived power they should never have had in the first place.  When we talk about the Constitution being the law of the land, we learned that the Deep State was a collection of government workers networked all over the world steering us all into some one world government control through the United Nations, and they plan to ignore the Constitution completely, any notion of rule of law, or reference to America as a sovereign nation.  And it has scared people.  This isn’t Alex Jones or Glenn Beck going on and on about the latest conspiracy theory.  This was our nightly news, and the Deep State, in their hunger for power, couldn’t any longer conceal themselves behind polite society.  So, they have been exposed, and people want nothing to do with them.  Why do you think, dear reader, that Barack Obama was in England meeting with globalists recently?  He’s not the president of the United States.  But he’s acting like it and being treated that way around the world.  Why would that be?  Because to their eyes, the Executive Branch is just a cosmetic caricature, just like the Constitution and the concept of an American flag.  They allow those things to exist to appease the masses, while in reality, they function as a globalist community of earthly citizens bending the knee to the latest communist insurrectionists, whether they be in the United Nations or China. 

The New York Times has been advancing this globalist vision for decades now and is at the heart of all progressive concepts, where progressives want America to “progress” beyond their idea of nationalities and traditional desires for nation-building.  But they see the writing on the wall, which is why they are trying to put a spin on this Deep State thing that is now out of control.  The Deep State assumes that the public will be willing to submit to being ruled by “experts” created in college institutions and trained in Marxist philosophy.  But after COVID-19, that fantasy flew out the window forever.  Out of desperation to get rid of Trump in the world, the “expert” class moved too aggressively and spooked the horses.  And they have all run out of the barn and aren’t returning.  The New York Times, in their experience, is seeing what’s going on in 2024, and they are trying to put a friendly face on what the Deep State is because it is something.  It’s not a conspiracy theory to witness that the government wants perpetually more power, and without a Constitution designed to limit those powers, then a nation, any nation, will drown in its corruption brought on by the needs of government to create a Deep State to protect itself from the judgment of a public that might reject them wholesale, which is what is happening politically in 2024.  As long as the government looked like it was doing some decent things in the world, people were willing to give it a free pass.  But once they learned how dangerous and presumptuous they were with election fraud, a coup against a famous American president, and the willingness to kill people with COVID to stay in power with growing centralized powers given over through an emergency caused by the Deep State, then their branding has been lost to judgment.  And that trust is gone for good.  And the New York Times and many others from that side of politics know it.

The Great Replacement Theory is Very Real: To understand it, just watch the classic film, ‘Scarface’

The Great Replacement Theory is not some politically driven rant; it’s a real political strategy that has been around for a long time, and it’s a heavily used communist tactic.  Even Elon Musk has come to see what the strategy is of Democrats in America, the purpose of the open border policy, which is well underway, and sending over 10 million undocumented migrants into the United States to essentially saturate their voting base.  For them to deny that is what they are doing is to deny history, and one of the best examples of this kind of thing in history was captured in the great Brian DePalma movie Scarface with Al Pacino.  The plot of that movie, which had a historical backdrop supporting a fictional storyline but one based on reality, was that Fidel Castro had let all the criminals out of their prisons to flood the border in Florida in order to saturate a red state with illegal immigrants and convert them to Democrat voters.  It was a Jimmy Carter policy to take them all in, just as Biden is now doing on a much more massive scale.  But the point of the communist regime and the Democrats in America was to take in all the criminals from those prisons and have them infiltrate America, mix in with a lot of other people, and overrun Miami and other Florida cities with massive crime and drugs.  It was a military maneuver, and the movie Scarface did a nice job of showing all the different layers of politics involved and how those decisions impacted people at all levels of society.  The root cause of the problem was the strategy of Castro to offload the criminals of his country to bring down his rival in the United States with poison.  This tactic is clearly behind the modern open-border movement.

People who don’t believe this is happening aren’t very good at geography and politics and don’t understand the characters at play.  Of all the countries that people are fleeing from, such as Venezuela, Mexico, Central America, and even Canada, they are all run by socialists.  Even in Brazil, you might recall they let a communist out of prison to overthrow their own populist leader there.  Everywhere you look behind this open border policy are advocates who want a strong centralized government in the style of Chinese communism, and their method of delivery is to overwhelm countries with immigration to change them into socialist and communist countries by migration.  In the process, they destabilize the economies of their targets with chaos and crime.  We don’t have to speculate about whether such things are happening because we can see them with our own eyes.  But we also now have historical context.  We saw what happened in Cuba when Scarface hit the movie theaters.  The whole point of the movie was to show how criminals were let out of jails only to become members of crime syndicates to push drugs into Miami, Florida, and other places in the United States.  The antics of Tony Montana became legendary in movie history as it was one of the first movies to almost be rated X because of hard language and violence.  But that was back in the early 80s and history remembers what happened.  People were so outraged by the communist insurgency at the time that they elected Ronald Reagan, and America survived even if the character of illegal immigration purposely changed the kind of people associated with Florida demographics.  There is no doubt that the same kind of strategy is being employed now, and behind all the impoverished areas are communist and socialist-led countries that people are fleeing from. They purposely antagonized innocent people to make them want to leave and overwhelm the border of the communist target, America. 

But when Cuba had their mass immigration into Florida, the Democrats didn’t get exactly what they expected.  That is because the way to beat communist countries in policy is to destroy them with capital and wealth generation.  And the capitalist government of America gave all those communist despots somewhere to work and a way to secure a decent life for their families.  And what we have seen over the last twenty to thirty years is a failure of the Democrat playbook to win the immigrants over as Democrats.  The Democrat party is so anti-family that they are unattractive to migrants who are very much pro-family and enjoy their family lineage.  2024 polling is showing that illegal immigrants and their immigrant families already in the United States are leaning toward Trump and the Make America Great platform.  After all, that’s why they migrated to the United States.  They didn’t want to be a part of the communist hellholes they ran from.  And the terrible ordeals they had to endure along the way, the disgraceful conduct, especially among their women.  Behind the manipulators of policy, the consultants, the financiers, and the despots of doom who purposely cause trouble among innocent people to inspire them into mass migrations to overthrow countries, many of their plans have backfired.  But that doesn’t mean their intent shouldn’t be punished.  What they planned to do and what they did do ended up harming many millions of innocent people on all sides, and all that tampering is catching up to them.  What might have been overlooked in the 80s because reporting was slower, and we hadn’t seen what was happening before is no longer hidden.   People understand this game now better than at any other point in history.

You might have heard what Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said recently, the president of Mexico about his role in protecting the American border from the drug cartels who essentially run his country.  He claimed it wasn’t his responsibility, that Americans want drugs, and they make the market for his drug cartels to do their business.  And that was very much the policy when the movie Scarface took place.  How do you attack a free market by injecting poison into that market and letting people die in it?  In that way, the resistance to the communist invasion destroys themselves with gratuitous sex and drug abuse, founded in a lack of morality by the destruction of the modern family unit that would otherwise disgrace such detrimental behavior.  The open border policies in America sponsored by Democrats and their RINO Republican conspirators are an attack against American sovereignty meant to destroy the country in ways that no military on earth could otherwise.  And we know that because it is straight out of the communist playbook that Castro in Cuba historically has shown the world, and the after-effects are still evident during any trip to Florida.  Even if the results failed to make Florida a blue state, as it’s a red state that still votes Republican, the intent can’t be ignored.  And it must be understood that what we are seeing now, with all the open borders with socialist countries, like Canada and especially Mexico is open warfare where people are used as weapons of war to convert capitalism to communism.  It’s certainly not a conspiracy theory.  It’s a malicious attack on our country and all of us, and it’s the only way to understand what is happening today.  It’s not like this is the first time we’ve seen it.

Banning TikTok from China: Morality is the best policy for protecting society from its enemies

I’m generally not for the government getting into the banning business, such as all this talk about banning TikTok from American consumption.  It might make everyone feel good, but at this point, it’s not nearly enough.  I think what they do in Florida with age restrictions is the right way for all social media.  The introduction of the internet to kids in puberty has been horrendous, culturally, so they are headed down the right road in Florida by identifying that fundamental use problem.  Strengthen the family; you solve a lot of these problems.  The government is a poor substitute for parental guidance.  But that doesn’t change what TikTok is and China’s intentions with it.  Yes, they are all about propaganda, and TikTok was invented as a social media platform to empower stupidity to destroy our culture by making it more mainstream.  When President Trump wanted to ban TikTok during his first presidency, he had the right idea in identifying a threat to our American youth.  China wants to make them dumb and to pursue the destruction of the next generation.  I was just in Japan studying how Kobe Beef is produced by tampering with cattle growth in ways that make the meat taste better.  TikTok was invented and utilized to be different from other forms of social media, more appealing to youth, and more addictive than YouTube or Facebook.  As a result, it is the critical platform millions of Americans use to share videos and opinions about a whole array of matters.  But residing behind that effort is a menace to destroy the mind of the consumer with addiction and short thinking, sexual obsession, and low intellect manipulations.  That could be said of most social media, but when it comes to TikTok, owned by the Chinese, the level of deceit is in a category of its own. 

The more general threat behind TikTok is the ability of foreign governments, hostile to the United States to own American assets.  Not just social media companies, but movie companies, land acquisition, and all other forms of investment.  America advertises itself as an open society; we allow foreign investment into our culture under the banner of “free trade,” only to see those hostile cultures use that weakness as leverage for our destruction.  Who needs a military when you can destroy the culture that produces the military?  By now, even the most dense person should understand that’s what we are dealing with.  When you look at all fronts, the poisoning of our youth with drugs, the teaching of communism in public schools, the destruction of the American family with feminism, and other methods, it should be obvious to everyone what’s going on.  Globalism wasn’t about bringing different countries into a capitalist society.  Globalism was about destroying the only real capitalist culture left on earth and eroding it from within, much the way TikTok was used as a kind of Trojan Horse.  But the troops don’t sneak in under the cover of night to slit everyone’s throats while they sleep.  They do it in the day, while everyone is awake.  But they get the people to slit their own throats and giggle about it like it’s a rebellion against convention.  The openness of American culture has been used against the kindness it was intended to project to the world’s less fortunate.  Rather than be thankful, those countries have plotted our destruction and then boasted about how weak we are for allowing them to do it.  So the TikTok problem won’t just disappear because politicians create a new ban on a social media platform.  The effort will just pack up and move to the next technological thing. 

My solution is to keep the government out of it and raise the expectations of social behavior through free market enterprise.  I agree with Trump, who has changed his mind on TikTok over time and with some perspective.  As long as we are allowing criminal syndicates, like China, and hostile billionaires like Bill Gates, to buy up massive amounts of American property and to use it in a hostile way against us, whether it be farmland or social media platforms, we open ourselves to the hostilities of those antagonizers, and there a lot of them.  Of course, those types of people want open borders; they want to suck off the merit of a capitalist country with lots of people to exploit in the process.  The government was supposed to protect us, but many of them are just as bad as the criminals, not being able to resist the many temptations in Washington D.C., from the easy money, the gratuitous sex, and the compromised lifestyles.  The way to beat all these characters is not with more government rules enforced by corrupt government officials but by increasing society’s morality in general.  We don’t have to put up with such low standards as the Chinese have offered us to make us fat, dumb, and easily manipulated toward their military objectives.  We are expected to express our feelings about things and to maintain standards that are difficult for lowlifes to live up to.  And in that way, who needs a ban on TikTok when a social stigma behind the platform permeates through market conditions?  The best way to deal with these hostilities from foreign governments is not to allow foreign investment to be so easy and to use a good moral code to regulate the amount of stupidity a culture is willing to put up with. 

There has been a lot of consternation locally where a new representative for the 47th District in Ohio beat out an entrenched Republican who is well known to be a RINO because she happens to be a pastor for a large church.  RINOs are dangerous because they believe in compromise and are willing to work with evil to make things happen, which is how we end up with things like TikTok in our culture.  The consternation comes from the endorsement of Diane Mullins from churches to become a political representative because the argument is that it’s supposed to be illegal, separation of church and state kind of issue. The left commits a lot of unlawful acts, such as cheating in elections and conducting open borders.  I don’t think a church endorsing a pastor for a political position is a problem at all.  And those who want to think so obviously have the destruction of America in mind because the entire debate about the separation of church and state was to make sure morality wasn’t provided to sustain a healthy culture with biblical guideposts.  The goal of removing such considerations was to make it easier to destroy the youth of America, which was a military strategy disguised as social policy.  But it is in affirming those moral values, a society protects itself best from intrusions like TikTok and other intentions from hostile foreign governments.  And we’d do much more good by not apologizing for upholding moral virtue than in a newly created government ban.  I would rather have a government ban than have a rudderless society, such as bans on drugs, abortion, and general bad conduct.  However, the best way to enforce moral policy is to have a society that isn’t afraid to make judgments against bad behavior.  And that is what most of these characters fear: people and politicians are not afraid to judge; which was the most effective means of social control ever invented by human beings?

Sara Carruthers Loses to Diane Mullins in the 47th District: Don’t work against the Central Committees and new media

It was wonderful to see Diane Mullins win the Representative seat for the 47th District, beating out Sara Carruthers in the primary who had held that seat.  I think Diane will do a great job, bring some fresh perspective to that seat, and represent the people of Hamilton and the surrounding area very well.  But this is a cautionary tale that deserves some thought because it was Sara Carruthers who had come out after the election of November 2023 and referred to Tea Party types in the Republican Party as radicals, as she was alluding to the assumption that party politics existed in some moderate relationship with communism and that she knew better than everyone else how to navigate those choppy waters.  Her crime was one of the Blue 22 coalition to put the moderate Speaker Stephens into power and undercut the much more Republican presence that had been planned.  So she was a declared RINO and made herself known to everyone as such, leaving the Central Committee to pull her endorsement and support Diane Mullins as a replacement, a much more conservative Republican.  And I said so much then and put my support behind the Republican slate card.  In that same exchange, Sheriff Jones became frustrated and went out on his own not seeking a party endorsement.  Things are getting hot in politics, and for good reason.  Who needs Democrats when our representatives are like Sara Carruthers?  Or Cindy Carpenter, for that matter.  And like Sara, many in Ohio went on to support Matt Dolan over the party pick of Bernie Moreno for the senate seat.  Even after the Central Committee of Ohio had put their support behind Bernie, there were many establishment Republican types who refused to deal with reality and instead supported Matt Dolan. 

More views on this site than most any other media platform. The power of new media. This stat from 3/25/24. That is much more than most best selling novels and cable news programs.

The approach was arrogant, and the money people continued to support Sara Carruthers even after she was rejected by the Central Committee, which carried over into several state races, most notably with Moreno.  Arrogance comes from an assumption that they have more of a right to pick people who are good for them than the average voter because they put more money into politics and deserve it.  Sara Carruthers had much more money to win in the 47th District than Diane Mullins.  I also heard a lot from people during this campaign that George Lang was just like Sara Carruthers and had donated money to each other’s campaign.  They were both RINOs, so how could I support George, not Sara?  Once a RINO, always a RINO, according to these opinions.  However, my distinction falls under the actual representation of voters and how a candidate views that role.  Obviously, with Carruthers, she was not happy with the political tide from the MAGA movement, and she was not pleased to see Lynda O’Conner lose her seat on the Lakota school board in November of 2023.  Many manipulations went on with the Central Committee in that case where Lynda received a party endorsement by tampering with the vote.  There were some games going on between West Chester and Liberty Township that forced Lynda through her endorsement process, and people responded by not voting for her, defeating her soundly at that next election.  So perhaps Sara Carruthers thought that money would win out in her election and that the party endorsement wouldn’t matter much.  And Sheriff Jones went through a similar process.  He was vulnerable if someone wanted to run against him.  However, the respect between the Central Committee and Party Establishment types had been tested, and there was apparent ambiguity on the matter, which was quite simple. 

I think it’s great that Pastor Diane has been so widely endorsed. As to the church and state separations, that has been a terrible experiment. It’s against the law to conduct election fraud, have open borders. And to traffic drugs. If the churches support Diane, the world is a better place for it.

Money does not buy what people think it does.  Traditional media is not the way to win campaigns, and disrespecting Central Committees is a bad trait in state politics, especially in Ohio.  More donors providing a larger war chest does not work like it used to, with new media being the primary way people get their news.  Some of my articles for endorsed candidates saw individually more than 35,000 hits in the week leading up to the primary election in March, which is typical for me.  The newspapers never say much about political candidates, so as voters are curious about the names they see on yard signs, they look them up and usually find my articles because they are longer and are more opinionated than what they get from traditional media.  As a result, my endorsements usually impact my pick because it is one of the best information platforms for people who don’t already have a firm pick in mind during elections.  And I knew when I did my piece against Sara Carruthers that it would offset the money she had in her war chest because radio ads, television, and yard signs didn’t work.  That’s not where voters are getting their information anymore.  It might be a launching point, but it isn’t the destination.  Voters want opinions about their candidates, and vlogs, blogs, and podcasts are the best ways to inform voters who they are voting for.  And those are much less expensive ways to communicate, but they also demand more personal authenticity than just a static one-page ad in the newspaper used to provide.  This has made it harder for RINOs to hide their liberalism, which ultimately was the downfall of Sara Carruthers.

At the heart of the matter was respect.  Chairman Todd Hall addressed that issue to the Butler County Republican Party with an obvious tone that supported Trump’s nomination for 2024 to run for president.  Any fantasies that RINOs would have had in dumping party endorsements in favor of donor sentiment or shoving through endorsements that the Central Committee did not adequately pick had diminished, as they should.  Plotting and scheming against the voters is not a good way for a political party to validate themselves because if that’s how it is, then they aren’t worth the trouble.  Over these past few elections, new media and the power of the Central Committee had been tested, but the results were noticeable.  The political parties were not in charge.  Donors couldn’t buy support with unfair leverage as they had in the past.  And Republicans who acted like Democrats were going to be punished and cast aside.  No matter how long they had been in office or how well-liked they were by the establishment.  All the schemes to eliminate Trump are based on the same logic.  And back to George Lang, he never betrayed Trump.  He might associate with people like Matt Dolan and others who are obvious RINOs.  But he never stepped away from MAGA’s ideas of making America First.  But Sara Carruthers did, and her sin was in being one of the Blue 22, which set Republicans back severely in Ohio from the Speaker seat.  And she had to pay.  Just as others who join her in deceit and betrayal, thinking they know better than the average voter what needs to happen in politics and to mask it, can spend money on more yard signs to stay in power.  That’s not what happened with Sara; her story should be a lesson to all.  Don’t betray the Central Committee by playing games.  Representing their wishes will make things a lot better for everyone involved.  And that’s how the ball bounces in politics from now on.

Lessons From George Lang’s Primary Win in Butler County: Political terrorism isn’t the way to win people over

It was not surprising to me that George Lang won in the primary for the 4th District Senate seat.  He was the best person for the job and is an integral part of the MAGA movement in Ohio politics.  And I like the guy quite a lot.  However, some things happened in this primary that need to be discussed, particularly concerning Candice Keller, who ran against him.  I thought it was a huge mistake when I first heard that she would.  I personally like Candice, her husband, and her supporters.  However, my relationship with George was founded on years of built-up trust, so everyone should know where my support would go.  But I did get some nasty campaign utterances against George, which I could care less about.  But I heard from people who questioned me because they wanted to say that George Lang was a RINO just because they lacked the extra gear he has in politics.  I think there are all kinds of people needed in political efforts; there are people who throw rocks.  And some people make deals, and all sorts of people in between.  Just because a politician like George has skills that other people don’t have, it doesn’t make him a RINO.  As I said on election day, George Lang never ran away from Trump, where many people in Ohio did; he even put a picture of himself next to Trump on the slate card in Butler County.  I have known George for a long time, and his support of Trump goes back as long as mine does, well before many of the modern tag-alongs saw the light.  I’ve been involved in many scenarios with George Lang where I know better than most what kind of person he is, so my endorsement of him came with that knowledge, which should have been the end of the story.

Always stand by your people, and never let the mob impact your opinions

Yet, right before the election, another friend of mine, Jennifer Gross, a representative from the 45th District, had called George to let him know that she couldn’t publicly endorse him because all the Candice Keller people were giving her a rough time.  In general, some kid running against her got ahold of the recording and published it to embarrass her.  Jennifer is of the rock thrower variety in Columbus and tends to have much of the same support as Candice Keller.  By talking in a friendly way to George and not being antagonistic toward him, she somehow betrayed Candice.  By default, if you wanted to prove you weren’t a RINO, you had to support Candice Keller.  Jennifer should have been able to help George Lang with an endorsement and to do so without fear.  But that she did fear the Candice Keller people says a lot about what’s wrong in politics.  If one politician has a better platform than another, then that is a free market appeal toward politics.  But forcing people to vote for someone else is the same kind of garbage that the radical left communists do.  That came from the Candice Keller people, mainly as it was applied to Jennifer Gross.  This is precisely why Candice Keller lost her previous seat where she was in the State House.  It takes guts to get into the arena but more skills than that to stay in it.  She got into trouble and didn’t work to build the right alliances, and she soon found herself on the out.  Which is her fault, and hers alone. 

George Lang never turned away from Trump, while many others have

I like the kind of trouble Candice Keller gets herself into as a rock thrower.  She was the one who caught Cindy Carpenter campaigning for Democrats in Middletown, so her brand of politics has its place, which keeps everyone healthy.  Regarding George Lang, she doesn’t know him like I do.  And it was her choice to run against him, and if she wanted to be in the arena of politics, there were other positions she could have picked.  Instead, she tends to want to run against George Lang and see how much power she has within the evangelical community to pull votes away from one of the top Republicans in Southern Ohio.  That’s a choice she made that isn’t rooted in good tactics.  It might be interesting.  But the effort isn’t serious beyond rock throwing, with all things considered.  If we didn’t have George Lang to pick from, I would happily vote for Candice.  But when there is a George Lang in a race, George is better in many categories and would get the vote and public support.  Jennifer Gross should have felt she could publicly support anyone without harassment.  But she was harassed, which led to that phone call to George, and was recorded by political rivals trying to make a name for themselves.  When it comes to party politics, everyone either wants to win, or they want to make noise.  In this case, support for President Trump should be the establishing criteria.  Everyone should be able to agree on that as a baseline in politics and work from there. 

Just because someone is successful or has more skills in a field than other people doesn’t mean they are wrong.  George Lang, in my experience with him, is far from a RINO.  He might be able to work with RINOs and Chamber people.  But he’s always the same guy at the end of the day, and I know his politics.  Making deals and getting along with people is only bad if you compromise who you are, and George doesn’t.  There is a lot of evil in the world, and just taking a hard line about a progressive topic such as transgenderism might make sense from a biblical perspective, but in general politics, not everyone is driven by such motivations.  And at that point, politics is not an evangelical enterprise.  If the goal is to use politics to enforce scripture, then you will lose support from the public, not gain it.  Whereas, if you are accommodating people’s viewpoints, even if they are evil, you might end up with a few more people in the pews on Sunday looking for leadership in their otherwise rudderless lives.  Trying to intimidate people into submission isn’t going to do the work for God.  God sells himself.  Doing an excellent job for people who need it, politically, is the way to go, and we should always pick the best people to perform those tasks.  And not try to intimidate people into support through fear of peer pressure.  There were a lot of primary positions that didn’t have challenges, such as Sheriff Jones’ seat, which I think he’s very vulnerable.  It was a choice to go after George Lang, so there will always be costs in the aftermath.  However, people should be able to express their opinions for or against candidates in a free market way.  Otherwise, the tactics are the same as the terrorists from the Karl Marx left.  And we should all be able to agree on how we feel about them.  Yet the harassment of Jennifer Gross shows a deeper problem that, until fixed, will continue to keep us from winning the way we need to, where the evil truly resides, in collectivism that both sides utilize to cover a lack of political skill whenever they are at wit’s end.

How Bernie Moreno Wins Ohio as the Next Senator: The three key factors

The results of the Republican primary for the Ohio Senate, where Bernie Moreno won over Frank LaRose and Matt Dolan, will be similar to how Moreno will beat the entrenched Sherrod Brown.  It wasn’t that long ago when Jim Renacci ran against Brown, and I thought Jim had a great chance to win.  I knew Jim a bit and understood his personality.  And I’ve had a chance to get to know Bernie, and I think the lessons learned will undoubtedly fall in Bernie’s favor.  With Moreno getting just over 50% of the vote in that primary election against two other good Republican candidates, it is very telling how this will play out, which is something that many outlets have been considering now that the strength of the Trump pick had performed.  Can Bernie Moreno beat the dreaded Sherrod Brown?  The answer is yes.  Matt Dolan was a good sample of the anti-Trump vote, whether they be RINOs or Democrats, and statistically spreading them out from what we saw in the primary over into a general election should be pretty similar.  Looking at the voting results precinct by precinct, Bernie Moreno performed very well in the north, better than might usually be thought.  And, of course, in the south, Bernie Moreno dominated, which is somewhat expected.  Anything south of Columbus in a matchup with Sherrod Brown could be considered Bernie territory, while in the north, he is vulnerable because he’s not the Trump-endorsed candidate.  The Rust Belt unions want Bernie and Trump.  They will vote for the person Trump wants, which makes Trump the kingmaker in the Senate race if the anti-Trump forces couldn’t generate more than they did against Bernie Moreno, especially with all the negative ads that tell you everything you need to know about the matchup between Brown and Moreno. 

Additionally, this is something I discussed with the Moreno team during a private sit-down a few months ago.  Sherrod Brown may have been in the Ohio Senate for many decades and is a bastion for progressive politics on the radical left side, but he is vulnerable in ways that Jim Renacci didn’t exploit.  Jim got caught up in the classic high-ground strategy of not exploiting the problems with Sherrod Brown’s domestic violence issue.  The previous election results showed that Brown was vulnerable, but Renacci didn’t go there. In several debates, Brown turned the whole issue on its head and told Renacci he should be ashamed of himself for even bringing it up.  Since that election, Sherrod Brown has been much less ostentatious publicly, showing cryptic vulnerability.  Instead, being a crafty politician, he has pivoted towards Trump support as he was the president then and hasn’t run away from him.  Brown acts like Trump is his best friend to confuse voters into voting for a union ticket for further support.  However, a swing of 7-8 points could be eroded from Brown on the morality and ethics front, which could quickly put Moreno over the top in November.  So I don’t think it is as close of a race as the national pundits think using conventional wisdom.  I believe convention will be thrown out in 2024 because a new set of rules that nobody has ever seen before will be applied.  And Sherrod Brown doesn’t match up against that wisdom at all.  He is built for classic unionized politics where Democrats controlled the narrative.  But they have lost that narrative, which can’t be ignored when looking at any election results from around the country.

Then there is the Trump factor, which Sherrod Brown has not seen much of.  The first time around, Jim Renacci was the Trump pick.  I met them at the airport in Lunken, just outside Cincinnati, and Jim was very excited.  At that time, Trump was a popular president doing well, but the political left was in the middle of their Russia, Russia, Russia nonsense, looking for a hook to attempt to derail Trump.  Covid hadn’t hit yet, so nobody knew what to do about Trump’s popularity.  But Jim Renacci, as nice as he was perhaps, was too well-mannered for Sherrod Brown.  So even though Trump endorsed Renacci, the power of that endorsement was not fully realized, not in the way that Bernie Moreno will experience.  After seeing Bernie with Don Jr., J.D. Vance, and Vivek Ramaswamy over the last several months, I realized there is a much different atmosphere to this 2024 election that the Trump endorsement machine understands.  And Bernie has a personality that won’t waste it, whereas Jim just didn’t put the teeth into the effort to knock off Brown.  So Brown was more than a little lucky in that last election, that he didn’t have to face the Trump endorsement now that it has matured into a well-oiled machine.  And that endorsement means voter engagement, actual votes in a booth on election day and before.  I would say that the personality difference between Moreno and Renacci is worth about 8 points in a race like this.  Both were successful business people who were in the car dealership business.  But Moreno is much more like Don Jr regarding a likeability factor than Jim.  Nothing against Renacci, but personality means a lot and Bernie has a lot of it.  If people get to interact with him, they will learn it quickly.

So, three things identify Bernie Moreno as the best option for the Sherrod Brown senate seat: to join J.D. Vance as a Republican and MAGA member of the Senate.  First, Bernie is very likeable and people will want to vote for him, especially where Trump is also on the ticket.  Getting the Trump vote by itself will likely be enough to win this race.  Then there is the juice of the race, the ability to attack Brown and exploit his natural weaknesses due to poor family maintenance.  The media downplayed the domestic abuse conditions of Brown’s ex-wife, and even she gave him a pass publicly.  But there was plenty there to exploit and Moreno will be able to bring those weaknesses to the surface in much the way he stepped up and over Frank LaRose and Matt Dolan in this primary.  Then there is the geography of the situation.  Bernie needs to perform well in the north, north of Columbus.  He doesn’t even have to beat Sherrod Brown in the Cleveland area.  He needs to just do well.  Because in the South, it’s Trump country, and Bernie is the man.  It’s an easy math problem, one that Renacci wasn’t able to tap into.  There is just more pop for Bernie, and he has more endorsements from people who will hit the ground running for him.  Right before the primary election, Trump flew in, and Kristi Noem was in Dayton.  Then, the next day in Milford, Ohio, Kari Lake campaigned for Bernie with J.D. Vance.  Just a few weeks prior, Don Jr., Vivek Ramaswamy, Kimberly Guilfoyle, and others hit the trail, especially in the south, and put their arms around Bernie to secure a victory.  And when that is done for the general election, the results will be very healthy for Republicans up and down the ticket.  So I don’t think it will be close.  Bernie cracks over 50% while Sherrod Brown will be lucky to get into the 40s.  And there is undoubtedly a clear path for Bernie Moreno to become the next senator in Ohio.

Trump is Protected by the 8th Amendment: Letitia James, the communist, won’t get what she wants

I haven’t said much about the Letitia James case in New York against Trump because, in many ways, it’s such a joke.  Under no circumstances will Trump have to suffer under this ridiculous prosecution, and I think the Trump team has known this all along, as now they are talking about it a bit more since the talk of confiscating the President’s assets is now something this prominent communist Attorney General in New York is pushing for.  This is the communist playbook, the confiscation of private property, and is a direct result of the Marxist movement infiltrating minority communities, which was what Black Lives Matter was all about.  This goofy behavior by James is to see if she’ll get away with it because she is clearly in violation of the 8th Amendment; Trump is Constitutionally protected from excessive bail nor, excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.  The reason the Trump team declared that such a 454 million dollar bond was unreasonable wasn’t because Trump doesn’t have the money.  Trump can easily cover these costs with just the revenue from Truth Social.  However, to emphasize the protection of the 8th Amendment, the definition needs to be established that this is an excessive bond and is cruel and unusual punishment by an out-of-control government way out of its lane.  What Letitia James is doing with the loser Judge Engoron is illegal, and they represent the government trying to do what the government is not allowed to do, and that is confiscate property and take out political rivals with the legal system.  Something not new in history, but it’s certainly an expectation that people in America have, is the protection of their lives and property under the Constitution.  But all that outright Marxism is testing our courts now, an infiltration that many weren’t ready to admit to. 

It has been sad to see, even though I have warned about it for decades, the obvious problem of just how many people, especially in the media but Democrats in general, are salivating over this tragedy. This is the kind of government they want on the Jimmy Fallon show, on The View, and on just about every network television outlet, and it’s so far out of line from what ordinary people want in the country that it can be shocking.  Obviously, many of these people have never read a book, and if they had, they would understand some basic civics lessons.  But they are too happy that some crooked political judge in New York could come up with an excessive fine and impose an unreasonably high bond.  How do we know it’s unreasonable?  Why did the Trump legal team have to define it that way in court?  Because it’s the largest in history and proportional to case law, it is cruel and unusual punishment.  It’s not that Trump didn’t have the money or resources to pay the fine to keep his assets from being seized.   It was that he shouldn’t have to, and the power of the government had to be regulated by invoking the definition of the 8th Amendment.  The confiscation of wealth by the government is a big no, no.  It’s just something we cannot allow in our society, and its attempt is yet more proof that Marxism is the thrust behind the Democrat Party unleashed by the political rival in the White House, put there through massive election fraud.  We are seeing up close just how deeply this Marxist philosophy has infiltrated American society.  People didn’t see it because they assumed that the Constitution was the law of the land, which it was supposed to be.  But Marxists like Letitia James have been trying to overthrow the law of the land by getting elected into Attorney General positions and attempting to challenge the rule of law to erode constitutional limits and destroy our culture as a capitalist nation. 

These are the same people who ran the NRA out of New York, and those legal cases are still pending, but it’s the game plan of the radical left who have as their foundation of government China-style communism.  And there are a lot of people who have been purposely dumbed down in our education system to believe that all this was possible in American law, which we have not previously challenged because of skin color concerns.  Communism has been hiding in the background of racist talk purposely to set up this particular kind of intrusion on personal rights and protections of private property.  To the dumb and unknowing, it can be scary or thrilling to see the government abuse its power, such as Letitia James has.  But under our Constitution, which is the law of the land, this behavior is prohibited.  Without it, Letitia James has no control.  Power doesn’t just flow one way.  Suppose you abandon the Constitution under some conditions but not all others. In that case, the total of it no longer has any meaning, and any Constitutional oath of office that James might have would be cast away to the mob. There would be no stopping the violence that would follow if everyone abandoned the law, as she is suggesting.  The power of government is meaningless without the Constitution’s constraints, such as the protections under the 8th Amendment.  The purpose of the 8th Amendment is to keep the government from doing what it’s trying to do to a political rival in President Trump. 

There will be no confiscation of Trump’s assets by a communist judge in New York and a radical Marxist Attorney General.  All of Trump’s political enemies can laugh and giggle at the prospect of power exhibited by James and the hostile New York culture in general, but it will be short-lived.  This is the same kind of terrorism that was shown toward America in the World Trade Center attack, an attempt to stick a dagger into the eye of capitalism and cut it out of our culture by attacking symbols of it.  Trump is a symbol of that capitalist culture that they have targeted for destruction, just as terrorists always do.  But the perpetrators of this communist advocacy should have read a few books before they made a move because they aren’t going to get what they want.  It’s ridiculous.  The Trump legal team has smartly played these aggressors to reveal their hands, which showed who and what they always were, so as to establish to the Supreme Court an unchallenging perspective of a violation of the 8th Amendment.  They let the communists go too far to set a standard that history could then judge by.  By revealing the actions of the communist hostilities, the public at large can see what’s really going on and make decisions for themselves accordingly.  This isn’t just a legal case in New York; it’s an invasion of Marxists into our Constitutional Republic.  And by attacking symbols of capitalism, their radicalism is being unleashed for all to see.  This is why there was an 8th Amendment in the first place: to prevent this abuse from being passed by the courts.  We have seen under great desecration these past few years many cases like this one in New York where radical communists have infiltrated the legal system.  But that doesn’t change the Constitutional limits to their powers of government that keep them from harassing innocent people.  This is a hard lesson that Letitia James and the gang in New York will learn quite spectacularly.
