Hitting the Lottery: My feelings about family are closer to the Amish

This is going to sound bad, but I don’t care.  I’m not humble, and I have no plans to be.  When I say that my fourth grandchild was lucky to be born into the family she was, I mean it for how it sounds.  I always like to see little kids born into the world. And as far as I’m concerned, nothing in the world is more important than family.  Our job as human beings is to emerge from the void and to fill it with consciousness.  And long after the shell of a living body dies away, the spirit that emerges lives eternally for all kinds of purposes.  And even though that spirit has its characteristics and is immortal in its conduct, the experience of a physical existence profoundly shapes the content of that eternal character. As I visited one of my daughters in the hospital giving birth to my fourth grandchild, that was what I was thinking as I visited the hospital wing full of optimism, as other families were giving birth also.  And it was a generally happy floor full of hope for the future, and I enjoy places like that.  But as I was holding this new baby, I couldn’t help but think that she had hit the lottery relative to the other families on the floor.  Out of all the random chances of landing in a body that gave birth in such a family as she had, she was one of the luckiest creatures in the universe.  And it made me sad for the other little kids who will never get such an opportunity.  I wish I could be a parent or grandpa to more kids.  Because most of them have terrible families that cripple them usually before life ever starts to get going and its just not fair to them.

I say that because I don’t spend much time slowing down.  I live a fast-paced life full of high stress and chaos.  So a moment alone with family to talk to each other doesn’t come often.  But for us, a couple of holidays are the best; the Fourth of July and Thanksgiving give us great moments that carry us through the rest of the year.  There are many more throughout the year, but those two are benchmarks that we value more than others.  And they are usually very positive experiences.  But when a new child is born, of course, that is an even rarer occurrence, and we take those kinds of things very seriously in my family.  Because we like life and all the opportunities that come with it.  I want kids more than the average person, and I like them a lot until they start showing signs of becoming adults, and if they start taking on the signs of becoming just another loser in the world, then I lose my enthusiasm for them.  I can’t say I like people, so when kids trade away their childhoods for adult behavior, I think they give away a fortune, and the rest of their lives are wasted.   But with kids, those dumb decisions haven’t been made yet, so knowing them is usually full of optimism.  And for my daughter and her new little daughter, there are many very supportive people in their family, and no matter how bad life gets, there is always room to grow and recover in our family activities.  But compared to the rest of the world and their approach, it almost feels like we are an Amish family.   I can relate to them much more than a normal family these days, because we have similar beliefs about the value of family. 

As I was pushing my granddaughter around the hospital floor to keep her entertained while her mother recovered a bit from birth, I had a good look at the other families also having babies.  Especially the dads.  And by their look, they weren’t ready to have a baby.  You could see the fear in their eyes as they held their newborn children at the tremendous responsibility they suddenly found themselves in.  Most of the dads having new babies were going to let down their families in some way, and they would never get the chance to understand what I’m talking about.  Most people probably won’t.  But to see that fear in the faces of people during such an optimistic time in their lives is sad to see, and I instantly feel sorry for the kids born into such a weak family with bad dads who aren’t up to the rigors of the task.  Most moms at least get a connection to a child who grows with them during the pregnancy.  But the men don’t get to have a baby or bond with it during the pregnancy.  So they aren’t so flat-footed when the baby is born; they have made at least some psychological transition that has prepared them for having a baby.  But the men must go deeper to get there, and most never do.  And the kids end up without a positive primary influence.  I am pretty standoffish with most people because I find them insulting that they don’t take the parenting process more serious, and I know that if they screw that up, then most things they do in their lives will also be screwed up and the kids will grow up to be bad people.  And most of those kids being born with my granddaughter don’t have a chance at a happy life, just by looking at their parents’ faces. 

I wouldn’t say it’s challenging to be a good parent or a grandparent, but unfortunately, most people fall short.  I was thinking about this recently during my birthday in April, when we were all at Hocking Hills doing a ghost hunt at Old Man’s Cave with the grandkids.  It was a lot of fun, and as we were doing it, it was nice to see the lights of discovery light up on the little kids’ faces, and many of those memories with family will shape them for a lifetime in everything they do.  And I enjoy my role in that process, and I always give as much as possible so they get the best opportunities out of it.  But most kids are born randomly into life, and they get the parents they get, which is usually not very good.  And most of the time, they are doomed before they ever get started, and that was certainly the case with all the kids born with my granddaughter.  There are always exceptions, of course.  But for the most part, most kids born that day were born into families where the adults raising them would disappoint them greatly.  And I feel sorry for the lack of chances they will have in life because of it.  I don’t think there is a better or more important job than being an adult mentor for a little, emerging child.  But what’s sad is that so few adults feel that way.  And when I have to see and talk to them, it just reminds me how few there are, and I feel sorry for the kids.  I want to help them all, but unfortunately, I can’t because of how families work.  But for my new grandchild, she hit the lottery.

Jim Comey Needs to be in Jail: Trying to intimidate the Supreme Court, and others to outlast Trump’s administration

Jim Comey knew what he was doing when playing with seashells on a beach and took a picture of an arrangement he made for his Instagram account.  That he denied he didn’t know what “8647” meant shows now, in hindsight, what a pervasive liar he has been on everything.  This is something that Democrats have been doing for a while to send a signal out to their deranged base of lunatics to do something stupid with a dog whistle meant for them.  Jim Comey was calling for the removal, by the understood means of assassination, by using the number “86” and putting it on his social media to connect with people who would do just that.  And by itself, it’s a serious matter.  But Jim Comey is on the outside now because he actively tried to remove Trump himself with all kinds of illegal activity, making up dossiers and passing them off as fact, faking FISA warrants, lying to congress, lying to the President and voters, Jim Comey, as I told CNN long ago, was a no good loser who was corrupt and took the FBI down a dark path for which it will never recover.  And given his history, and the known assassinations that were already attempted against Trump, the context of this recent case of Comey getting caught doing it is unforgivable, and he should be in jail for his misdeed.  It doesn’t matter that the FBI interviewed him and his intentions. Comey is a known, professional liar, and he knowingly put up a mark on his social media account as the former Director of the FBI, and the consequences for that action should be jail time at a minimum.  His intent is well chronicled and can be supported in a court of law beyond a reasonable doubt. 

But there is a bigger problem looming in the background, and this is about the Supreme Court ruling against Trump’s Article II powers to deport criminal thugs and cartel members operating in the United States.  On the same day we learned about Comey’s activism, we also learned that the Supreme Court, including all of Trump’s picks, went against him on deporting the illegal alien gang members, that have been hotly debated.  Seeing the Supreme Court punt with a 7-2 decision surprised everyone.  Well, I’m not surprised.  I was just at the Supreme Court recently, and know the vibe there firsthand.  There is a lot of pressure on them to distance themselves from the Trump administration because, after all, the polite society types know that Trump is temporary, and judges tend to wait for a lifetime appointment.  They will be around long after Trump is gone, so the assumption goes, and what the Supreme Court doesn’t want are people like James Comey, who are all over the intelligence community, putting out “86” hits on them to be performed by some crazy hitman lunatic driving by on a scooter outside their home and erasing them from existence while they are getting their mail.  Because that’s what’s bad about this hit request from Comey, is that he knows as an insider, that baked into his actions is an unprovably assumption about an underbelly of criminal conduct that works continuously in the background and turns the timid types, like judges on the Supreme Court into cowards worried about their future as the system itself will dispose of them at their first chance.  In this way, Comey commanded from his former title, showing that he’s like a mob boss still calling the shots from jail.  Members of the Supreme Court are afraid of these people for good reasons. 

Obama was the autopen

Trump’s picks are going out of their way to show they are independent of the President because the pressure on them is intense.  And when Comey put that message on his Instagram account, he didn’t mean it for Trump.  He meant it for the people who work for Trump and around him, as a rallying cry to resist him.  He will be gone and won’t be able to protect them at some point.  So they better get with the program.  We’ve seen Chuck Schumer beg a mob of malcontents to attack members of the Supreme Court for their previous rulings, and we’ve seen other assassination attempts against Trump where the FBI practically left the door open for the killers to kill.  This isn’t an accident; it’s a method of behavior that Democrats are counting on.  And they are bold about it.  And based on Comey’s past behavior, we were aware that he openly worked against the taxpayer selection of a representative in the White House; there is no way to deny what Comey was up to.  He and “they,” the Democrat mob who have found themselves out of power, are showing emotional leverage of the Supreme Court through well-planted acts of potential violence to steer them away from hard rulings and to punt this deportation case back down to the 5th circuit to stall Trump’s efforts, which won’t work in the end.  There are other ways to skin this cat.  However, the Supreme Court invalidated itself in the process because of the apparent threats from the hard left, of which Comey is a part.  There are a lot of his type in the law and order community at all levels, and they are arrogant because they think the rest of everybody is too stupid to know what they are up to.  Well, people see it, and they know what was going on in this case, and nobody believes what he’s saying.  It was this same Comey FBI that hid the Anthony Weiner laptop, whose wife is the new woman for little Alex Soros, and the Hunter Biden laptop, which showed all kinds of legal infractions.  And did not move to put Hillary Clinton in jail for her email scandal, but instead ran cover for her, because they were trying to keep Trump out of office. 

When you have people like Comey in the intelligence agencies, even when Trump has picked better people to run the Department of Justice now than we had, you still have these people on the payroll, and they are just holding their nose and waiting for Trump to be out of office once more.  And messages like Comey’s seashells are obvious intimidation tactics to show the masses that the mob is really in charge, and even members of the former administrations are always just a call away.  That insurrection through mob rule still dominates this material world.  Isn’t that the message of Hiram Abiff?  What say you, Master Masons?  The mob kills, and we must surrender this world and keep our eyes on the next.  So that cowards can justify turning their cheek away from evil and not face it, even when it presents itself on a beach by the former Director of the FBI.  And when caught, he lied and said it didn’t mean what we all know it meant.  Jim Comey is a dirty cop who wants crime to exist so that Democrats can stay in power.  And they want to tie up the Supreme Court so that violence can overthrow the order of a Trump administration before it can do all the great things promised during the 2024 campaign.  These are not lovers of America; they want to overthrow it, and their best weapon of choice is to inspire derelicts to action, which was what Jim Comey intended.  He needs to be put in jail and made an example of.

Getting Woke Politics out of the NFL: Jon Gruden introduces the Buccaneers schedule

There is a good reason for me to talk about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as several interesting things have happened regarding them.  I haven’t changed my mind about the NFL product being prone to rigging games to cover betting odds.  The referees have problems, and it’s pretty evident that they give the Kansas City Chiefs a lot of help in winning the games they do.  So wherever there is money, there are temptations for corruption.  But I enjoy the NFL product, and out of all the teams, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are my favorite.  And Raymond James Stadium is my favorite place to watch NFL football games.  The Cincinnati Bengals are my local team, but I am not crazy about the Brown Family ownership.  I like the Glazer Family and how they try hard every year to create a winning product.  It might not always work out, but they do try.  And I was very impressed with the coaching staff’s picks in the NFL draft this year.  There were several positions that Tampa Bay went out to get unique players for, most notably and most exciting for me, was Desmon Watson, the biggest NFL player ever drafted at 6’6” and 464 pounds.  I like what the Bucs are doing and looking at their schedule, where they have to play teams with running quarterbacks, like Josh Allen, who are big, and teams that like to go for a fourth down if they are under two yards, Tampa Bay invested in being disruptive of this emerging trend.  Almost every game is a playoff game this year because Tampa has won its division for five straight years.  And it could be expected that they would move to the bottom of the pile, the way the NFL leverages things.  But getting Desmon Watson to play next to Vita Vea at the DT position is a run-stopping combination that could be the most exciting and effective in the NFL.

With teams like the Detroit Lions, the Eagles, San Francisco, Buffalo, and many other teams known for their aggressive ground game, having Vita Vea on the Bucs team has been very effective.  To put the largest person ever to be in the NFL right next to him is an excellent strategy by the Bucs coaching staff, and it certainly shows me a commitment to win.  And I like that.  But I’m not just interested in football or this year’s draft class, but something that shocked me this past week, as the Bucs released their 2025 schedule.  Remember a few years ago when I made comments about the Buccaneer organization removing their old coach Jon Gruden off the Ring of Honor that was in the stadium at Raymond James because the woke NFL did not like that the Raiders coach got caught by email sending pictures of cheerleaders to his brother who was coach of the Washington Football Team.  This was the ridiculous woke nonsense that China was trying to implement in our society, and Gruden was treated terribly for essentially making comments about NFL cheerleaders that were very natural.  As punishment, Gruden was removed from the NFL in a lot of the same ways that Pete Rose was removed from baseball, and it was all over woke garbage.  I was unhappy that the Glazer Family played into the Biden administration’s woke censorship of people and removed Gruden from his history with the Buccaneers.  Gruden was a Super Bowl-winning coach, and pulling his statue from the lobby of One Buc Place was horrible in many ways and very hard on the fans.  But if you’ll remember, I said this whole thing would blow up and that the Gruden decision was a mistake. 

Given where he was then and where he is now, it was remarkable that the Buccaneers had Jon Gruden release their 2025 schedule on the official website.  So this was Gruden talking about the Bucs, not as a fan of the NFL product, but as an official spokesman for the Buccaneers organization.  After Trump won the presidency, it didn’t take long for everyone to realize that the woke stuff was garbage and the American people weren’t going to buy into it.  That was a communist China strategy, and people weren’t adopting it in America.  So, within a very short time of being essentially banned from NFL football, Jon Gruden was invited to talk about the Bucs’ schedule as the Glazer Family wanted to heal the damage done and restore their relationship with their old coach.  And it was good to see that Gruden was willing to do so.  That makes the video he did talking about the Buccaneers’ schedule remarkable. Even if people aren’t fans of the Buccaneers, it indicates a trend we see worldwide—the Trump effect of breaking old strategies for a much more optimistic future.  And when the Glazer Family, who were Biden supporters, are moving in the healthy direction of restoring their relationship with Jon Gruden, you know the same thing is happening in every industry in every country worldwide.  This gives a lot more perspective, for instance, on Trump’s recent visit to Saudi Arabia and his very popular reception there.  People in the world like winners, not woke politics.  And Trump is a winner.  And so is Jon Gruden. 

So much more than about NFL football, there is a lot of news coming out of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that is highly significant.  Most importantly, they recognized that their support of woke policies was driving a wedge in their fan base, and they backed off their wrong position, even to the point of putting their arm around Gruden again, and he gracefully accepted their outreach.  And as a result, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers product is much better and a lot more fun.  And this is a trend we will see everywhere now with Trump in office.  It’s a good measure of the pressure to step away from woke corporate policy and to make decisions based on market viability.   This makes this year’s draft picks even more critical because the Glazer Family is aware that they want to win at all phases of public relations, including winning another championship to make their city of Tampa proud.  The woke values of progressivism are the kind of things people who go to NFL games are trying to get away from.  And the NFL itself has been slow to realize that.  However, the Bucs organization quickly corrected its mistakes, a sign of many things to come under the new Trump White House.  It didn’t take long for the Bucs to go from a complete ban of Jon Gruden and their past with him, to a full-throated supporter, which I thought may never happen, as bad as it was.  But it was good to see, and fun.  Woke politics has no place in our entertainment culture; it’s a communist strategy that should have never been introduced to anything in America.  From CEOs to NFL head coaches, woke politics has been horrible.  And I am thrilled to see my favorite NFL team step away from it noticeably and to repair their relationship with Jon Gruden, one of the best coaches ever to be in the game.  And like most men, if he wants to talk about the boobies of NFL cheerleaders, that’s perfectly OK with me.  That’s why the NFL has cheerleaders.  People like to look at them, which certainly makes the game a little more fun.

A Warning for Trump: Be careful of the bootlickers and losers

This is the hard part, with the honeymoon essentially over, the Trump administration has to watch that it doesn’t lose its edge.  I’m not particularly worried about it, but it’s something Trump will have to be careful about because when it comes to deal-making, he loves doing it certainly more than the political process.  And we’re talking about falling in love with the people you negotiate with, like China, like Russia, Syria, Saudi Arabia, where people pander to him, massage his ego, and then slip the Shakespearian knife in Trump’s back when they think he’s not looking.  The bad guys in the world have no choice but to appease Trump. That is the case usually with my “gunfighter at the bar with his back-to-the-room” metaphor that I always talk about.  The enemy does not seek to kill valuable people if they think they can use them first, which is perfectly true with Trump and his natural ability to get leverage in just about any situation.  But it is because of this tendency that Bill Gates and Dr. Fauci lied straight to Trump’s face about COVID during the last administration, the Fed practiced Modern Monetary Theory with Larry Fink as their distribution center right under the nose of Trump.  This is the point in the story where the appeasers appease, and the suckers bite on the sweet candy and sicken themselves forever.  And Trump, if he wants to do well in this term and achieve all the things that are possible, has to be cautious about his nature.  “If you can’t beat them, join them,” is what the enemy is saying.  And adding, “then beat them when you have their trust by a last-minute betrayal.”  Trump has to resist falling in love with the bad guys under the pretense of compassion because the villainy they are capable of is far worse than his nature understands.  At heart, he has developed into a great negotiator by understanding how to read a room and its people.  And he generally does like people.  And the only defense that bad people have against such a person is to appeal to his good nature to keep him from destroying them.  And many of them need to be destroyed.

The caution comes from Pam Bondi at the DOJ, the handling of the Epstein files, and the public expectation that people will go to jail.  And James O’Keefe and Laura Loomer have been reporting that there are not so forthcoming reports on other elements, such as video of sexual exploitation of children involved in the Epstein Island personalities.  And when you play in the sandbox that Trump plays in, and Pam Bondi, it is likely that people you know are on that Epstein list, and the pain and betrayal of that can be pretty harsh.  This is the difference between campaigning and doing.  It is easy to talk about something, but not so easy to do it.  Ultimately, I think Trump will follow through on the challenges before him.  However, in trying to deal with people and salvage relationships, especially in the Middle East, sometimes his love of making friends is more than destroying an enemy, and it will be used against him.  We’re dealing with some evil people who must be dealt with harshly.  It’s what people expect and don’t necessarily want to make a deal with bad people, even if it doesn’t strengthen the American position in the world.  And Trump is going to have to fight through that carefully.  The best way to preserve Trump’s legacy is with America First and easy wins on the scoreboard.  We have the midterms coming up soon, and if Trump wants more than just a couple of years of cosmetic cooperation, he needs to put some bad guys in jail.

The judicial problem I thought was very well explained recently by Matt Gaetz on the WarRoom.  To become a judge in America, you have to jump through many hoops, belong to many clubs, and prove yourself to be a good caretaker of the BAR Association, which has shown to be very progressive and radical.  I have often pointed out, especially among older judges, their relationship to Freemasonry as a problem because of their commitment to altruism, which, for fans of Ayn Rand, is a deadly word in a productive society.  We elect Presidents, congresspeople, senators, all kinds of positions, but the hold outs to the MAGA agenda are these legal people who are connected to deep and malicious finance, and they do think they can appease the beast in Trump just long enough to crush him when his back is turned and that’s where we are.  People who survive the barriers to the judicial profession only do so by jumping through hoops of social formation that is truly devastating to the perpetuation of a productive, sovereign country, and that is what Trump is up against.  Appeasing them with kindness and good deals won’t stop the villainy of their nocturnal deeds, and their oaths to the corruptive nature of mass collectivism, through the sacrifice of self, for the benefit of others.  Many judicial types see their role in life as stopping materialists like Trump with everything they have in their very souls.  And there is no way to make friends and bring them to your side.  They have to be destroyed, and if they are on video doing nasty things with little kids on Epstein Island, they need to be torn to shreds in front of the public spectacularly because it’s what people want in our Representative Republic.

Glenn Beck ran the numbers recently through AI on the possible ways the American economy survives.  And let me say that I think most of them are wrong.   I am very optimistic about the future of America and our economy.  But we must listen to caution and do good things with the information.  However, those AI programs don’t have many scenarios where the American dollar will survive an economic collapse in the world by 2030.  And I know that’s where Trump’s heart is.  There is a good chance that the AI programs can’t see yet, because it’s more intuitive than practical, that America will lead the world in a capitalist revolution that will improve things for everyone.  But many bad people will gladly throw themselves in front of that train, and we have to have the guts to run them over.  Because those people have the wrong ideas about existence, there is no way to reform them.  And it’s through that kind of ruthlessness that America survives and thrives. But there will be a lot of casualties, and some of them will be friends.  And it will be painful.  And there is no way to negotiate away the pain.  And not fall in love with the office of the Presidency because the ceremonial routine is filled with appeasers trying to massage Trump’s ego, just long enough to outlast him.  Don’t ever lose your edge because the edge that matters is in the knife they are trying to stick in Trump’s back when they think he’ll turn his back just long enough because it’s the only move they have.  Be recklessly cautious.

The Fate of Atlantis: Letting the CIA shape a narrative through federal money on college campuses–controlling what people know and believe

I have a mission in life that involves the mounds of Ohio, which was why I was reading the older book now by David Price, Weaponizing Anthropology. Price is a professor of anthropology at Sait Martin’s University in Lacy, Washington, and is well known to poke a stick at things.  Even though he is noticeably interested in the fictional concept of social justice and radical progressive causes, he is also a free speech advocate who was pen pals with Julian Assange during the heyday of WikiLeaks.  I was also interested in what he had to say about CIA penetration into the field of anthropology, which we are all very familiar with now as a problem in all sciences.  So I slugged through the anti-Bush diatribes, because he was also pretty hard on President Obama, as the book was published around 2011.  So it’s not exactly up-to-date current events, but it does show to what extent the danger of providing federal money to science has been, which can then be applied to just about anything.  Thinking about the pre-COVID world, the ability to purchase scientific opinion was a real problem that is essentially the caution of a book like this, so it was a bit odd to read about it now, knowing what we do about things.  But for me, I don’t like being lied to, and the mound culture analysts that have come from the fields of archaeology and anthropology are ripe for exposure, and I was interested to see just what extent my thoughts on the matter were relevant as it turns out, its far worse than I thought.  The problem is how a government can control the flow of information and how much it costs to purchase the truth.  The CIA has been very interested in doing just that, and when you get this kind of evidence, the magnitude of the problems comes into focus fast.

For instance, if you look at the coastline of Florida, well into the Gulf of America, now would have been a vast span of land that took up most of it, all the way over to where the Mississippi River is now, which would have all been above water 15,000 years ago.  And the real definition of Native American indigenous people is not what we found when Columbus came to America, but was the remains of a previous culture that was advanced and very organized, and had been around longer than the established Clovis assumptions of post-Ice Age habitation.  Ocean levels were more than 400 feet lower because ice displacement from the glaciers locked up massive amounts of moisture at the poles.  That means that North America had a very different coastline, and the evidence of people living in America is well preserved miles offshore of our current coast.  Divers have found all kinds of good things to research, so it’s not controversial to observe and prove.  As I said to an investigator the other day who explores these kinds of things, as a science, we have been looking for the car keys under a parking lot light at night, because that’s where we can see.  But we lost the keys in the bar, which is now closed.  So we look where we can, and conclude things based on that minimal vantage point.  This is the case for all the mound builders; thousands of sites exist in the United States.  In Ohio, you can’t go even today more than 10 to 14 miles in any direction and not find evidence of this previous culture.  To get to the point, I think that the last culture was ancient Atlantis, as reported by Plato in his famous writings on the matter, which were historical, not elements of fantastic fiction.  The proof is everywhere, but we don’t look at it.

But why?  That’s where the CIA and other government forces come into the picture.  Why would the CIA want to create an official narrative within the field of social sciences to shape a domestic opinion?  Well, there is a political narrative of anti-American sentiment attached to the exploitation of indigenous people that shapes our political order, and any talk about Atlantis being destroyed, 50,000 years ago or even 10,000 years ago violates the narrative that the CIA has been able to inject into the official narrative to explain that Clovis people came into North America during the Ice Age and migrated as hunters and gathers as happy nature worshippers until the mean Europeans arrived and took their blissful life away from them with the exploits of capitalism. Instead, the Atlantis discussion shows the catastrophe of a failed government with advanced abilities that crumbled into nothingness for many detrimental reasons.  And we should understand, as a modern culture, what those reasons were, so we don’t make the same mistakes ourselves.   So, rather than deal with the facts, the CIA was able to capture the reporting of the facts through funding and penetration into campus scientists and force them to support a CIA-directed narrative, by controlling the nature of federal funding.  When the government can make loans for expensive educations available cheaply, they can control the terms of the education and, by clause of contract, force borrowers to say and do anything they want.  And it has been a massive problem that has massively compromised the field of anthropology.  We saw all the sciences exposed in raw form during COVID, where so many scientists said what the world governments wanted them to say.  In this way, David Price has been an insider whistleblower. 

The evidence of science should take us where the evidence goes.  And whatever it is, it is what it is.  I don’t talk about the Atlantis theory as a hope or wishful, and fanciful thinking, I say it because the evidence takes us there.  But hidden in front of that evidence is this government control of an official narrative installed by elements like the CIA, who have a massive desire to control the populations of the world, which is why they have been interested in anthropologists being on their payroll.  Through black budgets unregulated by Congress, these people have been able to shape the truth they want society to establish so they can control how people feel about it.  And there is an obvious political motivation behind the victimization narrative.  The CIA signed up for the globalist agenda at least since Kissinger was working to bring China into the fold.  A lot of history is hidden in plain sight all through China and Russia, and down into that vast territory in the Near East, to the familiar sites of Iraq and Iran.  And in all those areas, the same earth structures are seen in North America from a mound-building culture that came from somewhere and was everywhere, much deeper into history than we have been previously told.  And the motivation for these deceptions was control over the current population and what they know about history.  The Native American narrative is a Democrat plot against the creation of America to begin with.  And the forces of the world that currently want to be in power, as they showed during the self-made Covid crisis, are to erase the truth.  That, well before the Archaic period, there was a global civilization that suffered a catastrophe and fled to all corners of the world, resulting in the mound-building cultures that had with them a technology that was more occult than physical science.  And that society had failed long before Columbus discovered that ancient land.  Which, of course, would violate the narrative the modern CIA wanted to project.  And their ability to capture a version of the truth that the mass population would accept is the real result of government control over finance and the ability to know what the truth is and whether or not anybody can be trusted who accepts federal money, for anything.

A Teacher of the Year Getting 30 Years in Jail: Another cover-up case at Lakota Schools

It should be shocking, but it isn’t, as news of the San Diego Teacher of the Year Jacqueline Ma pleading guilty to sexually grooming two of her students, one 11 and the other 12 for an extended period, that Lakota schools had another incident, which was quietly wiped away from the news cycle.  Where is Karin Johnson from Channel 5?  And with that, San Diego teacher, what gave her away as a young 36-year-old prototype that was given their highest honor?  She was the kind of teacher they wanted to say to the world that she was the best, and that parents could feel safe sending their kids to her with all their trust.  Was it the nose rings?  At Lakota, about a month before Jacqueline Ma cried like a baby in front of the judge, throwing all her guilt on the table, Lakota schools had plain clothed police officers escorting out a male teacher from the East Freshman building because the mother of a young girl caught the guy watching porn with her daughter.  And previously, that same teacher had a series of complaints trying to get into the girls’ locker room, to the point that they had to move him somewhere else once people knew what he was up to.  But to keep the story out of the news and to protect the school’s image, especially with this recent lawsuit in Columbus, where Lakota, along with 300 other plaintiffs who have joined the EdChoice lawsuit, want to pretend that they are something they aren’t.  So they can keep the trust of tax-paying parents, instead of admitting what they really are, a breeding ground for Democrat politics with serious sexual deviancy issues.  The media never reports on the issue until there is a confession, which is rare.  And before action is ever taken, as in the case of the Lakota case and the San Diego case, it takes a nosy parent to ask questions and insist on an investigation, which then turns up diabolical behavior discovered too late.

It should be evident by now what is going on; these public schools only care about their reputations so they can continue to steal money from taxpayers to fund their monstrous meat factories of sexual molestation and disastrous grooming of innocent kids.  These cases are so common that, statistically speaking, if you look at those who aren’t getting caught, it’s an astonishingly high number, so much so that all students would be able to report some creepy teacher they have to interact with who has boundary problems.  The schools cannot detect it through their teacher union contracts because they don’t ask for or tell about concealment policies.  Jacqueline Ma was given everything and had an incredibly bright future if only she could keep her shirt on.  Yet she had such bad judgment that she was taking her clothes off in class to show the young boys her boobies and was sending them text messages with all kinds of incriminating content because when people, any people, get into authority positions, it is very difficult not to abuse that relationship.  Obviously, for teachers of the year like Jacqueline Ma, it was tough to keep her clothes on, and her mind out of the gutter when she had a class full of students under her power, not to abuse it.  And back to the EdChoice case in Ohio, or Trump’s position to strengthen School Choice and eliminate centralized education methods, favoring more competitive approaches, it’s because of these stories that no public schools in the country can say that they are efficiently teaching children. Instead, they are abusing them sexually and ruining them for the rest of their lives, in many cases. 

I pick on Karin Johnson because I have a history with her.  She’s always there too late and supports the public school experience with blinders on.  I know her from my WLW days, when she was friends with Scott Sloan, the radio host.  I talked a lot about public school problems on his show until Scott got in trouble with his wife, a real estate agent, and those segments on a big radio station were what she thought was damaging to the real estate value of the school districts where she was selling.  So things went south, and Karin Johnson showed herself as a former cheerleader using the news as a pro-school advocate.  Only when a story completely collapses does she do a story on these dangerous public schools.  Instead of digging up the problems, they turn their attention to the people trying to bring all this to the surface, to protect the public schools for many of the reasons that were behind WLW radio getting out of that business.  The advertisers want to think well of these schools, whether they are good or not.  And now people hear too many of these stories that they want to pull their kids out of the schools and send them somewhere private.  And they want choices in education because the public option is far from reform-worthy.  Many people who have pushed these terrible stories under the radar want the public option to work for one reason or another, psychological or financial, and it’s hard for them to face the facts.  However, parents are sick of having to do all the work, and if it were not for them, the school would never admit to these transgressions.  And everything would continue to be swept under the rug.

It’s a problem in every workplace: the abuse of power by those who have authority over others, whether students or employees.  You cannot have a system of efficient teaching when a school system in San Diego gives a teacher like Jacqueline Ma a Teacher of the Year award, because they are measuring all the wrong values.  I would have told them that the nose ring should have been a disqualifying attribute.  You can’t be Teacher of the Year with a nose ring.  And if you take your clothes off in front of your students and send them pictures of you in sexual conditions, you can’t work as an authority figure in the school.  Or like in Lakota, where these cases are pretty much daily, if you watch porn with your students, grooming them, you are fired.  And if this young girl’s mom didn’t stick her nose into the situation, that teacher would still be employed, even though the other teachers know all about the problems.  They don’t say anything because they care more about the school’s reputation.  Not in actually being good and performing well.  The public school experience is inefficient, expensive, and corrosive because it has bad teachers instructing students in vulnerable positions, doing all the wrong things.  And it’s out of control because the checks on that power are more interested in keeping the stories from the public to hide it, because of some financial or emotional interest, that they have made the problem far worse.  It’s so bad that whistleblowers, like that girl’s mom at Lakota, are viewed as troublemakers, instead of the teachers caught doing the dirty deeds.  The assumption from the public school supporters is that we should all keep in mind the greater good of public education, even if that good is only in bad teachers continuing to get a paycheck stolen from property owners for a service that is horrible in general to an entire generation of kids.  And when it comes down to it, nobody but a few parents who care are looking out for the kids.  Not the news, not our politicians, not our business world, nobody.  Not even our churches.  Nobody cares because the evil under the rug is so vast and horrible that people would rather not find out about it until some tenacious parent catches someone guilty, and they cry like a baby, hoping to get a plea deal to cut 30 years of jail down to a lesser sentence.  By that time, their lives are already ruined.

Public Schools Are Going To Lose on EdChoice: Free legal advice on how to beat this case in court

In early May of 2025, oral arguments for the joint lawsuit by over 300 affiliates attached to public education funding made their pitch for why school vouchers harmed them and needed to be made unconstitutional.  Lakota schools in my district have recently joined this lawsuit with some horrendous legal advice from their counsel, but here’s the deal, and it’s quite clear after listening to the plaintive side of the case.  I had friends who went to provide testimony for the defense, for the position of the state to continue with the expansion of the school voucher program, in this case specifically, EdChoice.  I don’t think there was any question going into it how it was going to evolve.  But the position of the presenters, the public school argument, was incredibly weak.  Pathetically weak, and I guess you would expect them to be better prepared.  Here’s the deal: Public schools have left people wanting something better because they have performed terribly over a long period.  And parents want choices for their kids.  We’re not talking about not having education here.  We are talking about better education made that way through competition.  These pathetic public schools run by these ridiculously lazy teacher unions have destroyed the public education prospect as it was initially conceived.  Because most parents need the free babysitting service, they hold their noses and just put up with it.  But increasingly, parents don’t want to send their kids to public schools, and they want access to private schools, so they look for options like EdChoice to do so.  For many parents who currently send their kids to private schools, the system is really unfair to them.  They already pay property taxes to a local school attached to their zip code, and the full tuition for the private alternative.  Now, more people want the same option; they only wish that the tax money they pour into the system would be used to help give them an option instead of wasting it on a poorly managed local school they have no choice in.  Other than picking up and moving somewhere else.  It’s an evil system that is in deep need of reform. 

This is a common occurrence in public education institutions, and is why in Ohio, they can’t meet the ‘efficiency’ standard. This is a recent case out of state, but shows the system itself is broken and Ohio has plenty of their own cases.

I’m happy to do it. I usually do it twenty times a week for somebody somewhere, and I’ll give everyone some free legal work in this case.  This is an easy case without much drama because of the wording in the Ohio Constitution, which I think is a remarkable document.  I love the Ohio Constitution.  For fun, I read it at least once a week.  But for the plaintiffs in this EdChoice case, they are way off the rails on their argument.  And for the defense, here is how you win this case with an end zone dance.  The Ohio Constitution from 1851 says, “the General Assembly shall make such provisions, by taxation, or otherwise, as with the income arising from the school trust fund, will secure a thorough and efficient system of common schools throughout the state; but no religious or other sect, or sects, shall ever have any exclusive right to, or control of, any part of the school funds of this state.”  The problem with the teacher union-run public schools with an operating management system straight off the pages of the Democrat Party is that they have let their costs get away from them, and that nobody manages the efficiency of the product they produce, no matter how you manage “efficiency.”  We could measure efficiency by the output, student quality, and ability to navigate adult lives.  Or get jobs that they are well prepared for.  Or we can measure efficiency by the cost per pupil, how much money it takes to produce a good student, “efficiently.”  In all the cases, the public school presentation of their point of view falls short because of the wording, “efficiency.”  They want and expect an exclusive monopoly of state funds, which has caused them to be wildly inefficient.  And it is in this failure that there is a court case at all.  Public schools, six at this Columbus hearing, but a lot more in the background, are trying to stave off what they caused for themselves. 

People want choice from the public school system because it has proven itself to be incredibly inefficient in allocating funds to the proper education of Ohio students.  So the burden of proof in this case is on the plaintiffs to show how they have presented an efficient product worthy of state money, rather than their assumption that they are promised state money just for existing.  They have not met the minimum Constitutional threshold for their base argument.  That’s why the Supreme Court has found the Ohio school funding model unconstitutional up to this point and why it has lingered in indecision.  That word “efficiency” is a real problem for how public education evolved, and the writers were wise to put it there.  You could also say the same about the word “thorough.”  How can public schools say they provide a “thorough” education when the evidence shows that they do only what they have to do to get state money and use it to pay overpriced labor markets ridiculous amounts of money for perpetually poor performance?  The plaintiffs really sounded foolish in this constitutional regard at the Columbus oral arguments.  Even I was embarrassed for them.

I know it, the public school types claim that they are held to different standards than the private schools are not held to, and there is money in that compliance.  But that is again part of the problem of inefficiency, even if government standards have made the public school experience less efficient.  It contributes through their argument of the facts that the public school experience is unreasonably inefficient because of the standards the state has put on them to make the use of the money they get less effective.  Which only makes it worse for them.  This kind of back and forth is why more and more parents want an off-ramp to the public school experience.  Parents wish to choose whether it’s in a private school or to homeschool their kids so they don’t have to send their kids to a factory of Democrat politics, which is what modern education has evolved into.  Public schools are not teaching kids to grow up and become Republicans, which would make sense if it were fair both ways.  But they are actively trying to teach kids to grow up and become Democrats.  And what parent wants to pay for that if they don’t want to lose their kids to radical politics?  Which happens a lot in the public school experience.  And when you go to school board meetings to complain, and the school board cuts off the mic to shut everyone up, what do they expect to happen?  People will want to pull their kids out of those schools and will not want to waste their money on an inefficient school just because it happens to be in their zip code.  The public schools have shown that they waste the money and continue asking for more.  Because they are a bad product made that way through a monopoly status.  And the best thing for them, to make them Constitutionally viable, is to force them to be more efficient in a competitive marketplace, which is why EdChoice and many other voucher programs will increase in number in the years to come.  The teachers’ unions will not win this case, because they can’t show that they contribute an efficient and thorough product.  And with that, the case is over.

Buying the Truth: Peer reviewers have made over a billion dollars from the top four medical outlets

I read a fascinating book this week that I thought was very revealing about the field of anthropology by a professor of that field called Weaponizing Anthropology, which is about how the CIA has infiltrated that science and the colleges that teach it to shape narratives to build a social narrative.  The book by David Price, I think, explains a lot about just how wrong it is that we establish what we think of as a fact.  And it reminded me of the problems revealed during Covid from the Lancet in England, a very respected medical publication, where Bill Gates and Dr. Fauci found ways to manipulate the important news of hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin to prevent and treat Covid-19.  And to take away that hope from millions of people suffering from the artificial virus, let loose from a lab in China to spread around the world, from gain-of-function research.  Regarding the field of anthropology and the related sciences, I have complained a lot about some of the ridiculous assumptions made about the mound building culture in the Ohio Valley for instance that steers concern more toward a hunter and gatherer mindset of gradual evolution when in fact we are looking at a Vico Cycle of continued decline and rebirth from cultures extending deep into the past, well beyond the Archaic Period.  And recently, we learned that peer reviewers for four of the top medical journals have received payments from drug and medical device manufacturers totaling around 1 billion dollars from 2020 to 2022.  This has opened the door to what big business it is to be in the peer review business.  People tend to trust information that is associated with an expert opinion.  But the deceit is that when that expert is paid to have an argument that the people writing the checks want them to have, the information is meaningless.  And in the context of the value of helpful information, we are finding that what we assume to be a reality is, in truth, only shaped by those paying for the definition of that reality, which endorses a need they have for mass public opinion to shade in their direction. 

This morning, I had 337,000 unread emails, and about a quarter of those are from people who offer peer review services and want me to pay them for their expert opinion to lend to the credibility of my material.  Or, they want me to review their material and are willing to pay for it.  It is an enormous business, and many people make a lot of money offering nothing more than an opinion, and the fee for being an expert in a field is very valuable.  But I don’t get into that money game for many reasons.  For a long time, I have not trusted peer-reviewed opinions for many reasons.  This recent information from the Weaponizing Anthropology book and this report on the peer review contributions to the top four medical journals has only solidified my opinion.  Which is sad because I would like to see the system work.  I read a lot of information, and I have my trusted sources.  I think the information is more credible when I see their name next to an article or a book.  But that’s how this whole racket got started in the first place.  Trust was for sale, and there were a lot of evil characters in the world willing to exploit it for all kinds of nefarious reasons.  That was indeed happening in the medical field.  And it was happening in large doses in anthropology and archaeology.  Those who pay for an opinion get to shape what that opinion is. 

I think we were a lot better off in the sciences when adventurers through discovery would publish wild finds in a search for fortune and glory.  The idea of profiting off finding a new treasure in the world and becoming rich in the process was more honest than what we have now, where experts are paid to shape an opinion and steer people as sponsored spokespeople toward some treatment that might not be good for them.  A good example is in the diagnosis of diabetes, for instance, where pancreatic health can be self-generated.  However, the medical approach shaped by paid experts wants to steer patients toward pharmaceutical treatments because that’s where the profit is.  The goal is not in saving lives with real and permanent treatment, it’s in keeping people sick so that pharma companies can profit off the demise of those patients.  The ability to purchase a peer-reviewed opinion then shapes reality, not toward the truth but toward the desire of profit seekers at the expense of honesty.  How often have I heard that the Clovis people migrated into North America across the frozen land bridge from Russia to Alaska 20,000 years ago?  When none of the expert opinions can begin to explain why there were such large skeletons found in Indian mounds all over North America from a people with very precise understandings of mathematics, and were certainly not hunters and gatherers, but sophisticated city dwellers, such as at the Cahokia site just outside of St. Louis that had cities larger than what was found in Europe at the time.  Most of that information has been suppressed by the peer review process, and only old-fashioned passion projects from seekers of fortune and glory have been able to shake that information loose from the world.

It has been a house of cards that was always going to fail, and that one billion dollars reported just for those four publications is just the tip of the iceberg.  This same practice is occurring in all our professional fields that produce experts.  Being an expert pays a lot of money once you establish yourself.  And as I said, I get a lot of offers, which I turn down because I don’t like the process, and would never take money for it.  Because I see it all as a huge problem.  These latest reports only confirm what I always suspected.  When you can pay cash to create a truth, can you say that a truth is real?  When opinion is for sale, I don’t see that it has any value.  An expert might work hard to build up credibility to put their name next to something, but the minute people discover that the opinion was purchased, all merit for the contents flies out the window.  That is what the CIA has been doing in the field of anthropology to shape social discourse by controlling the narrative with people on their staff, or with money paid to experts through black budgets not regulated by members of an elected body of government in Congress.  And since many people got caught over the Lancet issue regarding COVID, I don’t think the expert class will ever gain credibility back.  It will take more than time to get people to trust in the system again.  And the peer review process is now broken forever.  And that might lead to wild theories and speculations from a hungry public.  But honestly, that information is more valid than the opinions of people paid to shape a truth that might have no basis in reality.  But it might serve the plots of more scandalous people who do not have our best interests in mind.

‘Revenge of the Sith’ Made 25 Million Dollars: Its all about the artist, not the product

My son-in-law said it best when we were on a family vacation in Florida and attending the Disney Parks, as we were at the Star Wars Land they have at Hollywood Studios, that Disney didn’t buy an entertainment franchise, they purchased a religion.  And they never understood it.  And you can see that with the new films compared to the ones that George Lucas directed himself, who created the franchise and sold it in 2012, with good intentions.  But honestly, and I hate to say it, Star Wars would have been better off if Lucas had never sold it to Disney.  I get why he did; he had many employees, wanted them to have something to do, and wanted to retire.  But Disney screwed up a lot with their woke politics and they significantly reduced the brand of Star Wars with their ownership.  And it has been a disaster.  Some good things happened, like their theme park presence.  But Bob Iger never understood what Star Wars was, the writers of the new movies had no idea what they were doing, and the films themselves were filled with woke ideas that modern audiences have soundly rejected.  And I have to say all that because we just recently had the now-famous holiday of May 4th, and I noticed a few things that were certainly interesting.  Primarily, the old movie Revenge of the Sith was re-released in theaters for a limited run to celebrate its 29th anniversary, and it made a really good 25 million dollars over the last weekend of April 2025.  It’s a movie that is free on television just about anytime that anybody wants to watch it, yet people were so hungry for Star Wars that they returned to the theater to see the movie one more time in actual movie theaters that says a whole lot about where people are and how valuable Star Wars is to our modern culture.

I wanted Disney’s ownership to succeed and Star Wars to be available to a new generation.  But Disney certainly screwed that up, what they have contributed to Star Wars was woke garbage that was astonishingly bad compared to what George Lucas directed.  And other people obviously feel the same way.  They aren’t rushing out to see the new Star Wars stuff that Disney produces. They rushed out to see the old movie and were quite celebratory over it.  I understand that there is real value in the old Star Wars movies. It is truly fascinating to see how corporate institutionalism, with all the money to work with, could not come close to duplicating that original magic.  But people didn’t let that stop them from celebrating the new Holiday, Star Wars Day, on May 4th, as in “May the 4th be with you.”  It was everywhere on May 4th 2025, from all kinds of surprising parts of society, especially at baseball games that now openly support the Star Wars Holiday, and people seem to really like it.  Even sports jocks like to brag about their Star Wars knowledge and are not afraid to geek out on May 4th dressing up as their favorite character.  And regarding Revenge of the Sith, it is stunning to hear how people today love that movie so much.  I remember when it came out and how people talked about it then, as well as the prequels of George Lucas in general, and I never would have thought that that movie would hold such a dear place in people’s hearts. 

But that is a testament to just how bad things are these days.  I knew it was bad when Disney got rid of the canon that George Lucas had built, leading up to the Disney merger by rewriting the history in novels, comic books, and then in the movies.  That was the biggest mistake that Disney could have made.  I said it at the time because my wife and I had personally read hundreds of Star Wars books, all of them ever produced at that time.  We tried to read some new ones under Disney ownership and couldn’t do it.  Disney was too woke to tell the story of Star Wars, a struggle for freedom from tyranny in deep space, a long time ago, and very far away.   Disney was incapable of getting it, and the story group at Lucasfilm was way too San Francisco progressive and anti-Trump to continue what George Lucas started.  That was obvious this year when Trump was back in the White House and stated how he wanted to make Hollywood great again.  Well, it starts by understanding what made it great to begin with, and clearly, people like what George Lucas did with Star Wars much more than what Disney was able to do with it.  And a sad wedge has now been introduced to the fanbase.  But this year, as opposed to the past, people are openly embracing the old Star Wars much more than just holding their nose to support the new stuff. And those very successful box office numbers for Revenge of the Sith are exciting.  People are hungry for good traditional values in the Star Wars movies.  But Disney never could get their arms around it. 

It hasn’t all been bad; a few Star Wars shows like Andor have been good.  Ahsoka is a pretty good show.  There have been a few movies there and there, like Solo and Rogue One, that were good.  But most of it has been garbage, including the most recent sequel movies.  You wonder how a bunch of people could sit in a room and, by committee, produce such garbage.  But George Lucas used to write stories in a notebook and with a pencil, a very anti-technology thing to do for one of the most technology-driven enterprises ever attempted.  It has been a lesson in arrogance, where institutionalism thinks it is superior to individual achievement.  However, with all that Disney had as resources, they could not do better than George Lucas did, all by himself.  Of course, thousands of employees made Star Wars great, but the vision started and ended with one guy.  And that’s what people wanted to see: the interpretation of an artist and their work.  Not some corporate collection of nonsense.  It’s like seeing a Picasso painting and thinking about the guy who made the art, as opposed to the same image produced by a museum committee trying to duplicate the genius of a Picasso painting.  People have voted; they love the old George Lucas stuff, but they don’t like the new stuff.  You don’t see people going crazy over the newly made Disney material.  But people will go to the movies dressed up to watch a free film that has been out for 20 years, because George Lucas, the artist, made it.  And they will spend time and money on that while rejecting the much more expensive new stuff.  And there is a lesson for the entire industry on May 4th, Star Wars Day.  Corporate collectivism does not beat individual merit, in any case.  Time in mass culture has proven that, overwhelmingly.  The artist is what people invest in, not the product or art itself.  And there can’t be any good Star Wars without the artist who created it, being the center of the conversation.  It was an experiment in entertainment that has shown a true trend that everyone should learn some hard lessons from.

He Who Owns the Gold Rules: Why the Pentegon won’t be able to get rid of Pete Hegseth

I was thrilled that Pete Hegseth got rid of Susan Rice at her Pentagon job.  I disagree with Bill O’Reilly when he says that the military brass in the Pentagon will run Pete off from his new Secretary of Defense role, as Trump appointed him to reform the military.  I don’t think they will be able to, and here’s why, and why everything that Trump is doing is going to work—he who owns the gold rules.  The administrators are not in charge.  And they are being exposed, and they have lost their leverage.  Susan Rice represents that era of administrators who purposely sought to give away America’s gold so it couldn’t rule the world.  I heard a very funny interview recently from a British reporter trying to challenge Natalie Winters from the WarRoom about America and its place in the world, and let me just say, there are a lot of people who are in for some hard lessons.  Never forget that the real issue is socialism against capitalism, and to make socialism and communism work, there have been many globalist types who have purposely given away America’s gold so that it wouldn’t be able to rule.  And when this globalist reporter couldn’t talk down to Natalie as a young woman, he was exasperated by her arrogance.  But she knows, and everyone else is learning, that the key to stopping globalism is to stop giving away American values to countries that don’t deserve it.  Susan Rice’s firing by Pete Hegseth is part of a larger pattern emerging from the Trump administration, and it is precisely why we voted for him.  People like Susan Rice, a former U.S. National Security Advisor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations under President Obama, are not going to be allowed to run the Pentagon in favor of policies that weaken America and strengthen the rest of the world that has adopted socialism and communism.  And she won’t be the last to go.

The national security issue is a simple one; I talk about it all the time with my gunfighter at the bar metaphor.  The gunfighter can have his back to the room and not worry about everyone trying to kill him, because everyone wants to find some way to get what he has, because he has value.  As I say, “he who owns the gold, rules.”  Other people may try to steal that gold, but they dare not when you have a superior military or a reputation for being the fastest with a gun, because it’s too risky to confront.  They would rather wait until you sleep and try to steal it that way.  And in the case of our Pentagon, people like Susan Rice have been undermining American independence for decades.  And if we had put some regular general in the system of Pete Hegseth’s current role, we’d get another nobody giving away American wealth to achieve peace.  As a communications expert, Pete Hegseth knows how to sell America to a new recruiting class, and his value has already seen a sharp increase in recruitment.  But for the pretentious people who work at the Pentagon and love to spend a lot of time in Georgetown eating and shopping with inflated wages and lifelong appointments that they don’t fear losing, the old days are over, and they are never coming back.  Globalism has been a bad deal, and one of the most significant bleeding wounds America has had has come out of the Pentagon from people like Susan Rice.

Negotiations with other countries are simple.  Do they have gold?  No.  They have crappy economic systems because they adopted Marxist ideas, which is the case in most of the world, including that English reporter who was interviewing Natalie Winters.  The truth is, America has the most excellent economy, even with far fewer people than China, and that is because of our capitalist markets.  And the bureaucratic administrators of the Washington D.C. culture have been working to undo that, and they will not be allowed to.  They don’t have the power anymore and won’t have the power to eliminate Pete Hegseth from his position.  They have been trying to create a scandal to pressure Pete and leak information to the media to accelerate that pressure.  But this is where things get fun, that’s why Trump put a media star in that position so that he could undo the rumors and pressure, because he knew from the beginning where the threats were.  And those people won’t be able to get rid of Pete Hegseth.  But Pete can undo them, which he started with when he fired Susan Rice.  Who cares what other countries think, or how fair it is for them?  They don’t get a seat at the big boys’ table if they don’t have gold.  Those are the rules of the world, and the only way to get gold in a capitalist economy is to become competitive and have things that the world wants.  Not to wait for globalists like Susan Rice and the Pentagon losers from the administrative state to steal gold from America and give it to the worthless and corrupt so that they can feel like they have a seat at the table.  No, they need to grovel like all the other Marxists. 

This is The Art of the Deal, as Trump has known and written about it for many years.  You have to know your leverage point and not allow others to think they are equal.  If you have something the world wants, you have some leverage to negotiate with.  We don’t need a governing Pentagon and a United Nations stealing American wealth, then lecturing us about sidewalks and roundabouts.  The administrative state has no value in such a world, and to destroy it, Trump is exposing that in favor of those with real value, and Susan Rice and the gang can’t compete on that level.  The English reporter talking to Natalie can’t either.  And they find such a concept of competition reprehensible, because they have been trained as Marxists.  But that house of cards is coming down and being exposed for what it always was.  Remember what I said many years ago about Trump’s second term?  If people wanted to understand it, just read The Art of the Comeback, where he was underwater by billions of dollars, and a homeless person sleeping on the street was much richer than he was.  And how he climbed out of that dire situation, and pretty quickly.  A few years later, he was the star of the hit television show The Apprentice, now on Amazon Prime.  Everyone should watch it and learn, because that is happening at the Pentagon.  And the world with the Trump administration knowing economics better than most practitioners anywhere.  If you want to be valuable in the world and have a seat at the table, find something you do well and use it as leverage to make a good deal.  Don’t grovel like a bunch of Marxist losers.  That trend is over, for America.  And we are never going to return to that policy.  And those guilty of it, like Susan Rice, will be fired for poor performance.
