Proof of 2020 Election Fraud: Where are over 12 million voters

No, we’re not just going to move on.  I told everyone what would happen, and it did exactly how I said it would, and now millions of people have a lot of egg on their faces because of it.  But yes, we have to talk about it because as Trump releases the January 6th prisoners, who never should have been put in jail in the first place, everyone needs context to one of the most significant crimes ever to be perpetrated against the human race.  January 6th, 2021, was caused by a hostile government performing a coup against the American people they were supposed to serve, and they certified an election people knew occurred through election fraud.  So as a legal foundation, that has to be understood.  It is not a polite society thing to accept theft and crime.  It is not our task to look the other way when our government commits a crime, such as removing someone from office they don’t like and putting someone we didn’t in office.  I pointed out precisely what would happen in the 2024 election, including the storyline of Biden beating Trump where Kamala couldn’t.  Kamala Harris was put in place to hide election fraud because everyone knew what they did to make Biden win in 2020, and they knew they wouldn’t be able to duplicate the results.  So, as soon as Kamala lost, the media narrative was, “Maybe Biden should have stayed in the race because he had success where Harris didn’t.”  But here’s the deal: Democrats never had 81 million votes because Kamala Harris, as a woman of color, and a woman, wasn’t able to outperform Joe Biden anywhere in the country just four years later.  Why, you ask, because in 2024, it was much harder to cheat than what they did in 2020 when COVID gave them cover to change the rules to allow them to insert Biden in office rather than to be elected by free choice. 

Essentially, Trump gained the same votes in 2024 as in 2020, hovering just over 73 million people.  However, Harris never made it out of the 60 millions, which is about where traditional elections with Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton had been.  Everyone seems shocked that Trump won the popular vote by 4-5 million voters.  But I’m not.  He performed as he had in previous elections.  But Democrats had won those previous elections through election fraud, and we know now, aside from the vast evidence brought forth, that they couldn’t duplicate the results anywhere because the mechanisms for cheating had been largely taken away from them. Now, all these news outlets and pundits are trying to explain it away as if Harris did something disastrously wrong.  See, I told you they were all going to throw her to the wolves to hide the crime they know was committed all along.  Where are the votes? Everyone is asking.  They never existed.  And in an election where poll watchers were everywhere and we knew where to look because of the election fraud investigations that had taken place over the last four years, the Democrats couldn’t come close to duplicating their 2020 numbers, giving Trump a clean sweep on the popular vote.  But he had that same mandate in 2020, and if he had been president, think of all the misery we wouldn’t have had to deal with.  Think of all the illegal signatures on Biden’s documents that he signed, which have no meaning because he was not the rightly elected president.  And this, again, is what the protestors of January 6th were angry about, and here is the proof. 

The proof of a major crime is right here. How clear does it have to be?

The prisoners were kept in jail, and anyone who questioned the results of the 2020 election were prosecuted, harassed, and deplatformed in terrible ways, and the message was that the government had counted the votes and picked your president.  Shut up and go away if you want to live.  And we were stuck with massive inflation, terrible energy policy, and a tyrannical government nanny state of criminal-minded despots who were willing to sell America out to any country paying money, especially communist China.  Keeping the J6 prisoners in jail deliberately violating their Constitutional rights to a speedy and fair trial was intimidation with the intent of submission to a law-breaking culture.  And when that assassin’s bullet did not kill Trump, the bad guys knew Trump was going to win the election not because of the great campaign that he was running but because he was going to still get around 75 million votes in 2024.  But the Democrats, under any candidate, wouldn’t get out of the 60 millions.  I think Kamala had around 69 million once all the smoke cleared, and the illegal immigrants of California were counted because they didn’t have to show voter ID.  But without the drop boxes and the half a billion dollars of Facebook money paying for votes under loose COVID rules, Democrats knew they wouldn’t win that election.  That’s why they had to keep Trump from running again because it would expose the crime they committed to knock him out of the Presidency the first time.  And look at all they did to him to essentially hide their crime of election fraud.  They could not afford a rematch between Trump and Biden because it would always expose them.  And as it turned out, Trump performed precisely as he had.  And Harris fell way short. 

People have to pay for these crimes, so no matter how nice they are now because of the election results, they are still guilty of terrible things in 2020 that must be fixed.  They ruined many lives because of their crime, especially the January 6th prisoners.  And there isn’t any amount of forgiveness that is permissible.  Nobody let us have Trump back for 2024.  He had to work hard, and many people had to have much courage to continue to support him when a very oppressive government was showing that they were willing to use the power of government to commit crimes and rule over people with intimidation.  It was a dark chapter in American life that we will never forget.  But now, because of the election of 2024, they have been caught and must pay for what they did—starting with the election results.  Someone, actually, many people, have a lot of explaining to do.  Where are the lost 12 million votes?  How did a woman of color perform so much worse than an almost 80-year-old man at the time?  If it was a few thousand votes, you might say people liked him more than her.  But you can’t explain millions of votes because the number is so large that it skews all the previous numbers regarding analysis.  For example, there wasn’t a single place where CNN put up an extensive board comparison of where Kamala outperformed Biden in the country.  That’s not because Kamala was bad; it’s because Biden never had those lofty results.  And in that way, every comparison between the two elections will always be tainted with insufficient data.  Because the data was never accurate, and remember, I told everyone so all along.  And I turned out to be entirely correct.  This Biden government lied to us, and they committed many crimes, and they have to be punished for what they did, and then some.  What they did is not forgivable.  And every complicit sucker in the media is just as guilty.

Trump Wins, Rage Against the Machine: Kamala Harris was always meant to hide election fraud

Down the stretch, it was all about covering up the election fraud from 2020.  Kamala Harris was dismal, and they knew that when they put her in to replace Joe Biden.  However, unless Biden performed well in that June debate with Trump, they would make the switch because it was all about math.  They cheated with fake people in 2020 to put Joe Biden over the top under the cover of COVID-19.  And they were never going to be able to duplicate those numbers.  Too many people were watching this time.  They had to put a variable into the mix and blame that for the different results rather than have a direct rematch between Trump and Biden that would have revealed the gloom and crime of a fixed election.  Communists have been rigging elections all over the world for years and it was just unfathomable that it was happening in the United States.  People couldn’t accept it and have been slow to get their minds around the idea.  But it’s been a problem, and this election had to be too big to rig because cheating has been such a persistent problem.  And Kamala, as unpopular as she was, was put out as a last-minute Hail Mary, hoping that race and gender would still carry an election, but she was just horrible, giving people little to vote for.  But it was never about winning for the Democrats, it was about covering up a crime.  The 2020 election was a crime, and that evidence had been deeply suppressed by many thousands of people who acted in a very treasonous way toward our country.  And the 2024 election was poised to reveal all that with a head-to-head matchup where the results could never be duplicated because many of those who voted for Joe Biden never existed.  They weren’t actual voters.

The line for voting at 6 am where I vote

Even the garbage comment by Biden is evidence of the essential problem.  Many have noticed that Joe Biden has been doing lots of little things to sabotage Kamala Harris, and it’s very likely he called Trump supporters garbage, knowing that it would rally them to vote, hoping it would harm Kamala Harris in the process.  He didn’t like the way they removed him from office and put her forth as a replacement.  But then again, they told him he won the first time and didn’t let him know all the work they put into the fraud of the 2020 election, which is a crime that still needs to be prosecuted.  While we’d like to think of the comment as a gaffe made that was a slip revealing what they thought of us, Democrats and the MAGA movement, in this passive-aggressive world, it was far more purposeful and meant to undermine Harris and energize Trump voters to flooding the zone so that she wouldn’t win either.  In politics, there is very little that isn’t known and off the cuff.  Everything is purposeful, even if it’s purposely deceitful.  People can, and often are, very deceitful because they don’t want to suffer the consequences of their actions.  But they also don’t want to get punched in the face for their evil deeds.  So, in most cases, learning to manipulate things in a passive-aggressive way is the choice of politics.  Joe Biden represented a machine that he believed was a free choice and that he had earned the position.  But they took it away from him just as quickly as they gave it.  And all he could do about his feelings on the matter was try to undermine the system behind the scenes, like so many people who find themselves in such a perilous situation.

Watching Trump dancing at the end of his last political rally as a candidate for high office at 2 AM in Grand Rapids, Michigan, was fascinating.  Trump brought so much hope to politics, and the people in the audience watching him couldn’t help but be wrapped up in his energy.  There will never be anybody like Trump.  But what he has been to politics is the exact opposite of what Kamala Harris represented and, ultimately, Joe Biden.  Controlled candidates run by a machine out of reach from ordinary people.  Trump gave people the feeling that the machine was still in their control, and based on the output of voter support, he challenged the machine in a way they weren’t prepared for.  They weren’t prepared for it in 2016 when he snuck in through fixed election rigging that was beyond the scale of their ability to cheat.  And that was the strategy this time, in 2024, to make everything too big to rig.  But never forget, this is a communist machine that was put in place to usher in Barack Obama, and it started even well before him.  This machine has long been at work for many decades, and it’s certainly not unique to the Democrat party, which is poised to do everything it can to rid the world of people like President Trump because he is a threat to that machine.  Because he empowered people.  That machine did everything it could to stop President Trump, and he triumphantly danced the night away in that last rally on the previous day before the election of 2024 in the middle of the night.  It was an incredible exhibit of historical significance.  And the results of it will last for a very long time. 

Never, never, never, forget! They committed crime and treason

But because Trump survived all the perilous traps that the Democrats and the machine, in general, had thrown at him, it forced the ultimate problem to be unveiled, and that is the crime of election fraud from 2020.  Just having Trump back on the ticket to run again threatened the revelation of the crime because so many thousands of people conspired to never allow it to happen.  Yet there he was, and on election day, he was on the ballot, changing the entire narrative the machine wanted to control.  And people learned that they had much more power than they thought.  And even in his own way, Biden raged against the machine by being a passive-aggressive provocateur for Trump by inciting his base against Kamala, his replacement.  Even as an old fool, Biden isn’t that dumb.  He did it purposefully because he believed he won the presidency the first time and could do it again.  But the machine knew otherwise and couldn’t have him messing everything up.  And certainly couldn’t allow Biden to be the breadcrumbs that led directly to prosecuting the many crimes of the 2020 election.  So they removed him and gave the world Kamala Harris, hoping that the differences in voter turnout would be blamed on her horrible campaign for which she would take the blame.  Not the machine.  And when you build a machine on a foundation of so much treachery, we will always get a mess.  Thank goodness we had President Trump come along and show all this horrible behavior.  And to give America a chance to live again with so much energy and sheer tenacity.  The machine is much less relevant now than in 2020, and people now see how deeply it works in our culture.  And on election day, 2024, for the first time in years, they were able to strike back at it with a vengeance.  And Trump WON!

Its That Time: Here is the Strategy

Don’t kid yourself; it is entirely possible that the reason that the political left wanted Kamala Harris was to suppress the voting results so that many Republicans would fall asleep thinking Trump was going to win.  Only to give themselves a better chance at picking up some of the close-down ballots, using Harris as a throwaway for the White House.  Any admissions at this point by radical Marxists who are concerned that Kamala is losing everywhere could, in truth, just be a calculated ruse meant to suppress the actual vote count to hide the massive fraud in 2020 by comparison so that Republican voters stay home and give easier congressional races over to Democrats so that they can win control of the House.  Kamala Harris, especially down the stretch, has been horrible.  She is essentially polling exactly where Biden was after the June debate, and there is no potential at this point of doing any better.  And I think she was a calculated disaster for all kinds of reasons.  But the thing to watch out for is that as Republicans and converted Democrats who are voting for Trump and MAGA, perhaps for the first time, not to be suckered by the fly-paper trap and assume Trump was going to win and to stay home on election day and leave any votes on the table.  Even if Trump blows away Kamala Harris, that’s not enough.  She has only one path to the White House if many crazy things fall her way, which isn’t likely.  But I think that is part of the game they are playing, and they’ve known it since before they pulled Biden off the ticket.  The key to this election cycle is gaining Republicans in the House and extending the current majority.  Democrats, however, are hoping to gain a small majority, which has been their game all along.

https://twitter.com/realalexjones/status/1852998346140426453?s=46

There are around 22 seats up for a flip in the House this year.  Of those, Republicans should gain a 6 to 7-member majority.  If things go well, it could be as high as 10.  If Republicans get cocky as everyone did in 2022 and assume there will be a big red wave that turns out to be just a little splash of water, then in that case, Democrats hope to gain control of Congress, ultimately putting them in charge of Washington, D.C., as a surprise for the election cycle because nobody has been talking about it.  In that case, they don’t care if Trump is president or not because Jamie Raskin has already said what they are all thinking: they have impeachment papers already prepared for Trump to throw him out of office.  And that is if they certify the election at all.  Republicans, we learned with Mike Pence and Mitch McConnell, did not have the guts not to approve the 2020 election as they should not have because of all the problems that were obvious at the time.  But Democrats have no such qualms.  They don’t care, and they play for blood.  So if they have a majority, they will resist with everything they have to certify Trump’s win.  That’s why you can’t assume that Kamala’s baffling stupidity isn’t part of the Democrat’s strategy into other offices.  Nobody puts someone as dumb as her on the front line unless she is a distraction meant for voter suppression.  Democrats might have hoped that her being a woman and a person of color might have been like a Hail Mary pass at the end of a desperate football game.  But experience says that what they are really after is voter suppression by making Republicans think they didn’t have to vote because Trump was easily going to win. 

The Senate also looks to be well in hand for Republicans.  As he said he would do all along, Bernie Moreno, down the stretch in Ohio, looks poised to beat the long-time Sherrod Brown, which is alarming for Democrats.  There are similar races, such as Keri Lake in Arizona, that are trending in the same direction, and all Democrats can hope to do is to get a few thousand Republicans to stay home and not vote so that the Democrats’ election fraud machine can keep tight races within the margin of cheating, and perhaps keep some of those Republican seats in the senate from holding a majority.  It’s the only play that Democrats have at this point.  They have been routinely rejected in just about every category over the last 8 years, and there are so many peelaways from Democrats who are now voting Republican that there is no other move for them but sheer desperation.  I would advise that nobody take anything for granted and that you vote like there is no tomorrow for Republicans, no matter how comfortable you think your person is leading.  As I say all the time, and now is one of those times, if Democrats can’t cheat, they can’t win.  It is my offering that Kamala Harris was constantly pushed out there to look stupid so that Republicans would get cocky and assume Trump would win easily, allowing Democrats to keep it close in the down-ballot races.  Nobody is put in a position as Kamala Harris has been, to be that stupid without it being on purpose. 

I hope this article reaches the eyes and ears of those who can still get on the horn and ensure voter engagement stays high.  I have some particular people in mind as I write this who do reach many people, and they read every day.  This is what we have all been working for over a long period.  This is the day.  Don’t let off the thrusters one bit.  I don’t have any compassion for Democrats.  Vote Republican.  Don’t worry about that local RINO you hate so much.  We’ll sort that out later through the marketplace of ideas.  They won’t last long in the world that is coming.  But for now, we need every last seat in every previous state that will support the MAGA agenda for Trump.  To do what we need to do as a country, we need as many MAGA supporters in as many positions as possible, from judges to mayors.  Keep voter engagement high, and don’t be suckered by Kamala’s horrendous campaign and sheer stupidity.  Nobody is that stupid; it is my offering that all of it was on purpose to instill voter suppression against Republicans by inspiring them to resist same-day voting trends that would allow Democrats to squeak by in a few places with low voter engagement.  I don’t think that will happen. Instead, I think it will be the other way around; voter engagement will be very high for Trump and all the down ballots, whereas Democrats will be very light because they won’t be able to cheat as they did in 2020.  But assume nothing until after the election.  Make it too big to rig so they can’t drag out the election for days after and allow chaos to change the results.  Make it evident that everything is known by 8 PM on election night.  And you can do that by voting so overwhelmingly that there won’t be any doubt in the coming days and months.  Don’t just talk about victory; make it happen by voting and doing so in a massive way, knowing what we’ve been through and understanding that we never want to see it again.   Take back your country one vote at a time.

Dealing with the Bullies of the Political Left: What happens after the election

Probably the biggest thing that everyone is concerned with after this November 5th election of President Trump is what will happen after.  Let’s face it: Democrats are the party of bullies and criminals, and to hide their intentions from the public, they resort most of the time to violence. And that is what people ultimately are afraid of.  So, they elected President Trump to return to the White House.  What happens then?  How do we deal with the radical left and the violence that is part of their interaction with the world?  Well, that just so happens to be my specialty.  As an adult now, I have the unique position of being in a lot of violent fights and coming out well in all of them.  That includes my childhood, which was unusually violent even though I grew up locally in Butler County, Ohio, and went to a good school.  I have always been uncompromising toward evil, so conflict was bound to happen.  For instance, when I was in the first grade, there was a really nasty bully that everyone was afraid of.  And he wanted to fight me right in the middle of class in front of everyone.  He was a big, scary kid who beat up everybody.  And I wasn’t very big at all at the time.  So I knew a fight with him would be tough.  So, as we started the fight, I poked him in the eye with my scissors, and it was a mess.  I got into a lot of trouble, of course.  But it was worth it because I gained something far more valuable: a reputation.  And that reputation would last the rest of my days in school, even up to the present.  When I fought with someone, the people involved often got badly hurt. 

When I was in the 6th grade, there were many fights between these, however, some of these show a pattern of behavior throughout my life; I got into a big fight with a kid much bigger than me right in the hallway in front of the principal’s office.  Most of the school was watching the fight because it was near the locker area right in front of the school in the morning while everyone was arriving.  So they formed a big circle and were watching, so I knew I had to make it good.   It wasn’t going well for the kid, so I needed to do something really dramatic to make sure I made a point. I pushed the kid through the principal’s office doors so hard that he fell into the doorway, and a few teacher assistants were residing there and being knocked away like bowling pins.  I followed it up by rushing him as he was getting up, colliding with him, which forced him backward even further and into the principal’s office where the guy was sitting at his desk.  I figured I was already in trouble, so I made it count.  I got into a lot of trouble, but again, my reputation bloomed as almost everyone in the school had witnessed or heard about it immediately.  It was worth the trouble I got into as a result.  Let me say that.  One thing you learn in these kinds of fights is that fewer people build up the courage to fight you because they know they are going to get hurt.  I was never a bully, but I had a policy not to take any crap from anybody over anything.  And that provoked people who like to give out crap, to try and make a trophy out of me, leaving many of them hurt in destructive ways and certainly damaged for life.  It’s gone forever once you lose a reputation, as with most things.

When I was a junior in high school, there was a group of bullies and a series of conflicts ensued through the winter that year with three of them, and it started over a girl.  I was always a sucker for helping girls when bullies pushed them around.  A trend that is as current as yesterday.  I still do this kind of thing a lot.  But then it was a matter of cafeteria warfare, and it got so bad that during one of these engagements, I punched a hard plastic plate that immediately cut my hand open in several places and exposed my bone and ligaments in front of the entire lunchroom.  Knowing I was severely hurt, I made the most of it and stayed calm even though my bones were sticking out of my hand.  I made a point to continue eating my food even with blood pouring out, taking my time to get to the nurse.  I had to be rushed to the hospital to have emergency plastic surgery because my hand was cut up badly.  It took a few months to heal, but the moment I could close my fist, I agreed to meet three of these guys at the Screaming Bridge, a local haunted spot in Liberty Township back then, for a fight.  And it was going to be a big one.  My friends were going to go and watch me fight these three guys who showed up to the fight location early to set booby traps they intended to push me into.  This was confirmed later in court when all this blew up into a significant headline, as the evidence of their intentions was nothing short of murderous. 

Fortunately for me, and this is why I can confirm Providence as a hidden hand that often shows up when you least expect it; I was with the police when one of those kids was shot and killed by a friend of mine after a car chase.   My reputation being what it was, I was not at the fight when it was supposed to start, and these kids I was supposed to meet told my friends that they had already thrown me down the hill into a series of booby traps they had set there, which frightened my friends because they couldn’t believe it.  So they gunned those kids down and chased them down the road, and a bullet hit one of the provocateurs, killing him.  Of course, the whole school knew I was supposed to fight those kids that night, and the story was all over the news.  So, I was the prime suspect.  But as it occurred, the police had apprehended me for another event that happened the weekend before, so they were questioning me at the exact moment on a Saturday night in late February 1985.  The point of all this is that, yes, I have a lot of experience dealing with bullies and violence.  And I enjoy these engagements.  I have had more guns pointed at me directly over the years than most police officers experience over their entire careers.  Most of the people I knew from back then didn’t make it very far into adulthood, and some had very violent deaths.  But I can say that I’ve seen enough of that behavior to know what will happen after this election. The Democrat bullies are out of gas and are beaten.  Do not be afraid of them.  They are defeated people, and their past has caught up with them.  And you don’t have to take any crap from them.  They are not scary or more powerful and can easily be beaten.  So don’t worry about what they will do after Trump wins the election.  They have only one play in the playbook and that is to bully people into submission.  But if you don’t submit, they don’t know what to do, and based on my experience, they don’t have what it takes to push people around, especially when they are losing as they are now politically.  There is only one path for them, and victory is not it.  And having the ability to bully people around, they have lost forever.  All you have to do is stand up to them.  God will take care of the rest. I’ve seen it all my life, and it happens like clockwork.  So don’t yield to the bullies from the radical left.  Stand up to them and expose them in ways they are unprepared to fight because they can’t.  Be like Joshua when he led the Israelites into Canaan.  God will take care of you if you fight in his name and do what’s right even when it seems scary and unwinnable.

‘Bulletproof’: Yes, we have a government that is willing to kill and do whatever it takes to stay in power

Jack Posobiec and his writing partner Joshua Lisec had already written one excellent book this year in Unhumans, and they were actively promoting it when the tragedy of July 13th occurred, and an assassin, a young kid, tried to kill President Trump at the now famous Butler Pennsylvania Rally.  There was a lot that instantly didn’t add up, so Jack and Joshua went instantly to write another book, Bullet Proof: The Truth About the Assassination Attempts on Donald Trump, and they rushed it to market so that voters would have an opportunity to read it before the 2024 election.  And I think everyone should read it, because what we see in Bullet Proof is the revelation of a massive crime, and a government that is criminally out of control.  There is next to no chance that the shooter, Thomas Crooks, quietly left his retirement home job and just decided one day to kill an American president with almost no social media footprint, had appeared in a BlackRock commercial, and had electronic devices that were communicating with characters all over the world.  And the chances that the Secret Service, the local police, and Homeland Security, in general, would make such a string of baffling Three Stooges-level errors that allowed the kid to climb onto a nearby roof and take shots at Trump during a rally that, thankfully missed.  But did hit members of the audience seriously, injuring them and killing one.  Crooks had help, as the book Bulletproof demonstrates.  The book is a remarkable benchmark in history that gets to the point quickly, which was why these guys rushed it to market.  A crime had been committed, a purposeful murder, and the attitude behind it was revealed in Joe Biden just days before the election when he called over 74 million Trump supporters “garbage” in frustration over how poorly Democrats were doing up and down the ticket.  And to get rid of Trump and that garbage, they used the power of government to kill and destroy whoever kept them from returning to power, which is a genuine concern we all must have once it becomes apparent just how terrible some of these people in government are.

Bulletproof is one of those books that tells a story very few want to admit to. Still, because of the not-so-recent Kennedy assassination, we knew which questions to ask immediately after the attempted Trump assassinations. There is a pattern of influence that quickly emerges, which is why President Trump is now planning to release the report on the Kennedy assassination.  Yes, the CIA was involved, and people need to know how their government behaves.  And the people who have done wrong need to be punished, especially in this recent case from Butler, Pennsylvania.  There will be a lot of crying and whining about fairness and unfairness in the coming months.  But when we hear it, understand that the noise is coming from the kind of people who openly tried to kill Trump supporters during the 2024 election and threw in jail those who stood against them.  So now we have irrefutable evidence of just how bad they are.  Bulletproof, the book proves beyond a reasonable doubt that the attempted Trump assassinations were inside jobs, and we have seen this same kind of approach done in many cases, especially school shootings.   But the Las Vegas shooter comes to mind, as well as the San Bernadino terrorist attack on that Christmas party a few years back.  Returning to Kennedy and knowing what we do now about Nixon, you quickly realize that there is a long history of this government, with many different characters who have purposely plotted the destruction of our republic’s form of government.  And until we stop them, they’ll keep doing it. 

What’s unusual here is that it is just as likely that providence played a direct role in the Trump assassination attempt in preventing it.  Several extraordinary miracles occurred to have that .223 bullet barely graze the top of Trump’s ear at just such a moment that Trump moved his head in just such a way that allowed a miss to happen.  Otherwise, Crooks had a side of the head direct shot that would have essentially decapitated President Trump a few months ahead of the election.  The kind of public assassination we had just seen with Japan’s Shinzo Abe, who was killed ironically just two years before on July 8th of 2022.  And we saw in Brazil the president there, Jair Bolsonaro, stabbed in public in an attempt to kill him.  He survived, but then we went on to watch a criminal released from jail literally to become the new president in Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva for the communists of South America put in place through massive election fraud there, as we have seen in many places in the world.  The pattern comes in the form of the dog whistle that speaks to lonely, and manipulative kids like Thomas Crooks to doing the work of the ruling thugs who hold government power, and that organizations like the CIA can manipulate these people into performing public assassinations.  It’s all part of a game of public manipulation where there is always a population sampling of radicals like the man who tried to kill Trump at his golf course in Florida, Ryan Wesley Routh, who are willing to throw their life away to perform some terrible task.  We have government people who want to hold aristocratic power all over the world and who have flourished as globalists, and they hide behind these acts of violence as isolated incidents when, in reality, they are far from isolated.  And because Trump is the kind of person he is, his force of personality exposed these people through their desperation to act.  They tried too hard and, in the process, revealed themselves, which Jack and Joshua captured nicely in their book.

This leaves us with only one choice; we have to put an end to these globalist governments and their rule over innocent, sovereign people, no matter where in the world they might reside.  Remember, many books provide irrefutable facts that Covid was a created bioweapon that was unleashed in Wuhan, China, for horrible intentions during an election year when the world was mad at Trump over his trade tariffs.  We are dealing with people in government at all levels and everywhere around the world who are perfectly fine with killing people who are in their way.  And we have to admit to ourselves before dealing with them correctly that those killers have no redeemable features.  And we must punish them and remove them from further danger.  We cannot kid ourselves and think that if we are nice to them and leave them alone, they won’t try to kill us and our elected representatives to get what they want.  Bulletproof the book is fantastic in that it reveals a significant crime quickly because there is such a history in the world that during this assassination attempt against Trump, it happened in front of too many people who witnessed it and knew to ask the right kind of questions before all the evidence went cold.  And wisely, Jack and Joshua gathered that evidence and put it in this fantastic book after a short sprint of challenging work that told the story before a primary election.  And nobody can read this book and walk away without a clear understanding of the forces we are dealing with.  It is an out-of-control, murderous government that uses human incompetence as a cover story for its truly destructive plans of global domination and easy money with mob-like control over capital markets.  And they want no challenge to their authority, no matter who it is.  And they do kill to stay in power.

Steve Bannon is Out of Jail: What happens next is the fault of those who put him there, they can only blame themselves

I’m just going to say it bluntly, I will never forgive the people who put Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro in jail during the year of 2024.  The congress that threw them in jail with a corrupt Biden DOJ were obviously crooked, but what was done, purely for political reasons was the loss of freedom for people of a respectable Trump White House.  When Bannon and Navarro were thrown in jail after spending many tens of thousands of dollars defending themselves from a prosecution that was completely politically motivated, only to end up in the disgraceful loss of personal freedom that they had to endure for more than four months in jail.  Nobody had ever gone that far before and had always respected Executive immunity when it comes to administration business.  What Eric Holder and Lois Lerner had done previously, even Barack Obama, was far worse than what Steve Bannon did, or Peter Navarro.  But the Democrats went there, and so did many Republicans who showed to the world that they might not agree with it, but did little to nothing to stop it.  These members of Trump’s Executive White House team were good people and they were thrown in jail like dogs to have to lose personal privacy completely.  Going to jail is no small matter, going to the bathroom in front of people all the time without a door to close would be terrible, and to have to do it day after day after day.  There was no reason for it and the people who did it to them can never be forgiven.  And I personally never will.  I personally like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro, and I think the only way to make things right in the world is to prosecute their prosecutors because they started it and abused the government for their own political purposes, and they have to be paid back.

I know the Trump campaign doesn’t need nor want to get pulled into a lot of controversy, they have an election to win.  But logic says that Trump is going to be back in the White House and when he is, a lot of bad people have to be punished for what they did.  If people didn’t want a revenge tour, they never should have started it.  As I keep saying to everyone who is asking me, if they want someone to blame for what is going to happen to them, they only need to look in the mirror.  Steve Bannan as of today is now out of jail, October 29th 2024, and I’m very glad to see it.  Nobody has suffered really more than the people at the Warroom, people like Grace Chong, Mareen Bannon, and Natalie Winters who have done what they good to keep the popular podcast going while Steve, the primary host, was doing time in jail.  They have put on a brave front, but it hurt them what happened to their friends, just because they happened to run the most popular political podcast in the United States.  Looking back over the last four years, what happened to people like Sidney Powell, General Flynn, Roger Stone and Rudy Giuliani has been disgraceful, and it was all done for purely political reasons, to use the power of government to destroy people who didn’t agree with the party in power.  Never forget the mug shots of the people in Georgia for which Trump was one, who were being prosecuted for questioning the results of the election there.  And nothing more.  Remember Jenna Ellis crying like a baby in front of a judge and turning on Trump to appease those powers that were in office when we talk about revenge in the coming months and years.   It’s not just that they started it and now we have to finish it, but if we want to have a great country we must have justice and people must be punished for the bad things they did.  They don’t get to point at Trump and declare that he’s going to put his critics in jail and prosecute his political enemies when it was they who started it.  They have to be punched in the face, at the very least.

I had quite a few friends who attended the RNC Convention this year in Wisconsin and they wanted to know who I wanted them to get pictures with, and my only real response was that I thought Peter Navarro getting out of jail and going straight to speak at the RNC was one of the most important themes of this election cycle.  There are a lot of things that need to be fixed, but this weaponization of government is the key to so many horrible things that we must rectify.  When we talk about the basic Bill of Rights, they were written because humans have a tendency to do these kinds of things to each other when they gain power, and at the core of all arguments about leadership and the role government plays in society is mitigating the failure of human beings who fall off the rocker.  We cannot have a big government with too much power that can use that power against us for their own profit.  And that is what happened at the very least to Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro.  They were being forced to acknowledge a criminal government or be thrown in jail.  And to show that power over them and the general Warroom audience, they lost their freedom and were insulted with a lack of privacy.  It’s as bad as it gets aside from actually killing people.  And because the bad guys had to respect the law to some extent, they only managed to put Bannan and Navarro in jail for four months.  In other countries, they could have easily been killed.  This is exactly why we have a Second Amendment and free speech at the heart of all our law and order.  Because without those checks on government power, the government would be killing off their political rivals without fear of ever having the tables turn on them. 

It is too much to expect government to be honest.  And when people popularly elect an administration as they did with Trump and his team in the White House as Bannan and Navarro were and will be again, a government that attacks that pick of the people broke and  the law in the most fundamental way, they sought to override a government by the people for the people, and to change it into something else.  Something ominous and oppressive.  And I don’t want to hear the crying for all the paybacks that have to occur.  All those bad guys out there should thank God that so many people have been willing to turn to an election for their redemption and not grab guns and take to violence against their political enemies.  Of course, that threat is always looming in the background and it’s the only thing that keeps bad people honest.  People cannot be trusted to act on their own to do what’s right.  They must have the fear of personal destruction to keep them in check.  And in the case of what was done to the Trump team over the last four years, since the bad guys did go too far, is the tables have to be turned, otherwise there is no hope at justice for the years to come.  We cannot have a good country unless those who truly did wrong are punished.  And now that Steve Bannon is out, and the election is happening, what happens next must happen.  The bad guys are bad people for a reason.  And they cannot molest our society without consequences, and the fault for that is entirely on their shoulders.  They did it to themselves.

The Epic Joe Rogan Interview with President Trump: Dreaming big again

I am very proud of President Trump.  Many people around him, including Elon Musk and Melania, for her fantastic entry into Madison Square Garden on the 27th of October, showed their best selves as a result of a fantastic campaign by Trump at the close of the 2024 election season.  That’s how you win, and it starts with effort.  And nobody in the history of the world, looking back, or forward will ever perform what President Trump has over these last four years.  Talk about resiliency.  He has made me very proud and has set a standard that will never be forgotten.  And even though the campaign still has a week or so, what the Trump campaign did at Madison Square Garden was epic and unforgettable.  It was astonishingly good.  However, that wasn’t the most significant thing that Trump could have done to secure his domination in this election cycle.  It was the Joe Rogan Podcast from that previous Friday, October 25th, 2024 where Trump sat down with the hottest podcast in the nation and just talked for three hours straight with no interruptions, no breaks, no notes.  Trump just sat down and spoke to Joe Rogan unscripted for three hours, something very few people could have done.  And Trump was fantastic.  When you add it all up, the week leading up to that podcast, then what was done at Madison Square Garden in New York City, of all places, for a Republican to campaign in what is considered forbidden territory, the sum of it was just jaw-dropping.   Talk about a guy who likes to win and has done everything to do so.  And even those hardened to him couldn’t help but admire the effort.  I think we aren’t just talking about a win with this effort against Kamala Harris, but Trump is playing to have the biggest win in the history of elections, including the dominating win Reagan had over Mondale in 1984. 

Leading up to the Madison Square Garden rally, I was at Kings Island with my family, and specifically, as I reviewed the clips from the Joe Rogan Podcast, I had a fascinating conversation with one of my grandchildren, who is 12.  I was about his age in 1984 when Reagan won in a landslide, and it had a feeling about it, like what we see today with Trump.  Only Reagan didn’t go through nearly what Trump has.  I am excited for my grandchildren, and I was able to explain to him that if everything goes well with this election on November 5th, and we have every reason in the world to believe it will, there is an opportunity for magnificent growth in America that is more than just a little bit, well deserved.  A few short months ago, I didn’t think there was a chance Elon Musk and President Trump would ever do anything together, so having the world’s richest man directly connected to Trump is a massive boost because, as fair or unfair as it is, Musk has brought an enthusiasm that people like George Soros and Jeff Bezos have applied negatively.  Elon Musk has become very effective, and Trump has earned that respect by surviving that assassin’s bullet.  A few months later, I watched this Joe Rogan Podcast as it occurred and listened in wonderment.  There were so many sound clips from that show that made excellent soundbites that even in the hours after, the political left had no countermeasure for.  There was so much said in those three hours that Trump had slammed shut an election victory for him at that moment.  And he wasn’t even done at that time.  Trump and Rogan even talked about aliens in that podcast.  It was quite extraordinary. 

But the promise of prosperity for a young 12-year-old is on the table here.  After all that we have been through as a country, we deserve something good, and as I reviewed the Joe Rogan clips and showed them to my grandson while we were in line for several rides, the enthusiasm was unmistakable.  We were on the cusp of something monstrously big, and Joe Rogan had managed to capture it with an excellent interview.  Trump was his best self during it, leaving in the wake plenty that anybody voting could like and get behind. Trump was swinging for the fences after ten years of some of the worst political treatment anybody has ever had, and it was coming fast not with just one homerun but several that were flying out of the park in a highlight reel nobody would ever forget.  I kept telling my grandson how culture changed a lot in the 80s, economically and socially, once Reagan won that second term; there was prosperity in America from about 1981 to 1989 that came from Reagan’s open embrace of capitalism and the defeat of the Soviet Union through policy that unleashed optimism everyone benefited from.  It was encouraging to see my grandchildren coming to age in this remarkable Trump election that was shaking off so many oppressive elements.  Like Rocky from the movies, Trump could be crawling across the finish line, all beat up and barely standing.  But here was a guy that had gone through all he had and was dressed in his business suit, looking better than ever, and showing himself to be at the height of his power.  At this moment, in line with my grandson, and just ahead of Trump’s appearance at Madison Square Garden, the recent betting odds for Trump to win came out at 94.5%, for the first time. 

Kamala Harris couldn’t have done even a tiny portion of what Trump did, especially the Joe Rogan Podcast.  She’s very unexceptional and has little to say about anything.  And in many ways, that is what Trump managed to crack through all the trouble and present to the world.   As I watched the Joe Rogan clips at Kings Island, I also got a live stream from London where they were having a rally for Trump across from Parliament.  I remember standing in that exact spot in 2017 when Trump had just been elected and watching the world react to it in a very negative way, especially in London.  But now the world was watching this American election and praying for Trump’s return, so this isn’t just America that’s excited.  The world is on edge, hoping for an excellent performance, which Trump has shown them; he has done everything he could to win and win big.  There is a chance for Trump not just to win, but for a period of enthusiasm to come from under the barriers of oppression that has stifled creative growth for over a century, even more.  And Trump had united everyone to his cause, even those like Musk who had been left of center most of his life.  Suddenly, Musk at Madison Square Garden talked about taxation in ways that were even more conservative than the Tea Party’s position.  All of this came because of Trump’s excellent campaign.  We were seeing something epic happening in politics and culture.  And the potential for what comes next for the children coming to age in this period is epic.  In many ways, all this campaign activity from Trump gave the feeling of a great nation overcoming an incredible sickness that had suddenly broken, and everyone felt much better.  And much of that was evident on the Joe Rogan Podcast, which would have been enough; it would have been the highlight of most political campaigns.  But for Trump, it was just another day at the office.  The bar of expectations has been shattered, and everyone has grown positively.  And it was wonderful to see.

The Rebellion Against the Global Managerial Class: What causes all war

When the British were finally forced to leave New York after the Revolutionary War, as one of the final acts after their defeat at the Battle of Yorktown, they imagined that the Americans would fall apart as soon as they left the city.  But once on their ships, an officer remembered that he had left something behind in a home he had been occupying and returned to get it.  The ship landed, and the officer returned to the house and retrieved what he had left behind, which he had expected to be a dangerous enterprise.  But he was stunned, as was the rest of England, to learn that the Americans were capable of self-government and were better off with them gone.  The world in America was better without the micromanagement of an oppressive centralized force.  And that is still the fight we have to this day; a managerial class of bureaucrats is attached to globalism and wants every corner of the globe to submit to their authority.  People have a raw belief about other people and the role authority plays in their lives.  And the truth is, the kind of freedom demonstrated for the first time in the world, the creation of a new nation and a people who governed themselves was bound to occur at some point in time.  America was able to happen due to a unique period in history where shipping allowed for international trade and communication just enough to make a new country possible.  But it was still too big to have all these jealous managerial people poking their noses in everyone’s business.  For a few hundred years, America was left alone because, for one, it didn’t have much value.  So, most of the other countries in the world didn’t care much about what happened to America.  That is until it became one of the wealthiest countries in the world, and mass communications became possible. At that point, the same jealous people were thrust together into a conflict that is very much the story of our modern day.

When Barack Obama says that he doesn’t understand how we became so divided, as he did at a recent rally for Harris, as the poll numbers show his Marxist revolution in the American government is coming to an end, I don’t think he does understand his role in the mess.  He was brought into that micromanagement culture of government to be a kind of communist parent.  So, like that English officer returning to New York, this concept of self-government just doesn’t make sense to him.  And, of course, there are people within the United States and worldwide who are just as perplexed.  I would call them broken people who crave government to be a parent in their lives.  They are insecure people who do not sustain themselves properly, so they are attracted to group affiliations.  But what caused the Revolutionary War in the first place is the same desire behind the MAGA movement now.  Everyone is shocked by what they are seeing in global populism, much less government, because most people never dealt with the cause of freedom in the first place.  When we talk about a Deep State and an administrative state, we are talking about people who are personally insecure and who want to rule over people in a managerial class kind of way.  You see it at every level of society, where a superior bosses around an inferior for the joy of being in control over someone else.  And this is the essence behind all forms of globalism.  They want to control value so that they can rule over the people who want a piece of that value.  But they do not understand why people would not want to be governed by them.  Or why more value is created in a culture that rebels against a management class of overseers. 

Another common theme that has not been well understood is that the Revolutionary War was about who controlled currency.  One of the plans the English had for the newly found Americans was to crush their economy by flooding the market with counterfeit money, making all the pay and exchanges made to people worthless, and essentially destroying the effort of freedom because nobody could afford the basics in life, particularly on the frontier of private property.  This was a continued problem with George Washington, who had been very successful before he became involved in the war or the presidency.  For his efforts, he was paid with worthless money, just as everyone else was, and that misfortune lasted the rest of his life.  But Americans didn’t turn away from freedom over a lousy economy that perplexed the world and its managerial class overseas.  They never understood it, and that holds to this day.  The same kind of people who lost America to the Revolution are handling our money supply now, and they have been purposely trying to destroy our economy for the purposeful incursion of ruling over America from the newly created United Nations.  To answer Barack Obama’s question, this rebellion would always occur, even if it meant the destruction of our economy.  When that destruction was most utilized in a global policy with the creation of the Covid bioweapon that shut down the world economy, the opposite of what they thought would happen occurred.  Just as that English officer was surprised to see how Americans behaved once the managerial class of the English military packed up and left New York after that war of independence. 

The monetary policy of imposing control over those who were supposed to be happy as subordinates was never understood psychologically, so the world has made the same mistakes repeatedly.  And Americans were taught by all the wrong people about how the world was supposed to be.  What was ignored was how people wished to live, and those forces never reconciled.  And that is the heart of what we see in this current election.  People do not want to be ruled by a managerial class.  It doesn’t matter if it’s other countries, centralized bankers, aliens from space, the World Economic Forum, or China, no matter who it is. People don’t want to be controlled by a managerial class, and America shows the benefits of what freedom produces in people.  Even when attempts to destroy our economy were utilized, people did not rush back to the arms of global overseers; instead, they became more rebellious.  And are electing Trump to get the globalists out of our back pockets.  And the more managerial overseers try to keep their hands in our pockets, the more anxious we have become.  But none of this is new; it’s just that the world is finally catching up to the nature of all human beings.  They don’t want a micromanaging parental figure ruling their lives.  They want freedom from all that, and the next several years are going to be very surprising to those globalist types.  They never reconciled what that English officer learned that day in New York, which is just as accurate now as it was then.  There is nothing that this management class can do to change human nature.  Things will never be for them as they would like them to be because that is not the nature of human beings anywhere.

Democrats Do Not Respect Civilian Oversight: The disaster of Kamala Harris skipping the Al Smith Dinner

As we get down the stretch of the 2024 election, the big takeaway and primary reason that many Democrats have peeled away from the party only to join Republicans is that a ruse has been exposed that was long concealed.  Democrats with a foundation of Marxism never respected voters’ opinions.  They ultimately adopted the globalist policy of rigged elections to gain and hold power.  They never intended to win people over with a compelling argument about their political platform.  Their entire political strategy has been essentially high school politics; you were either a cool kid or weren’t.  And if that were the case, then you would be cast from society, a society they controlled.  No, what they lost most over the last four years has been their brand.  Nobody wants to be one of the cool kids if what you get is a Democrat.  That was particularly revealing when Tulsi Gabbard announced at a recent Trump rally that she was joining the Republican Party.  Trump has been fantastic at opening up the big tent of the Republican Party in ways that no other Republican in history could have, leaving it indeed a party of the Americans.  When you consider that Robert F. Kennedy joined Trump’s campaign with the intention of a critical position in the White House and Elon Musk suddenly became a Tea Party kind of Republican, the Trump campaign has just been fantastic down the stretch.  Trump has done everything that could be done to bring people into support of him, especially with people of color and among the immigrant population.  There have been a lot of great moments, but I think one of the best will be remembered by the Al Smith Dinner of 2024, where Trump was brilliantly funny.  Most of all, he showed up, but Kamala Harris didn’t. 

Democrats are playing a game they thought would work, and it is consistent with their actions over the past three or four decades.  But Trump exposed it with all his persuasive live performances, especially at the Al Smith Dinner.  When Trump went to the one in 2016, Hillary Clinton was there, and she went and spoke.  She didn’t do very well, but she figured it didn’t matter at that time.  The machine would win for her, so she showed up and did her part.  Trump was great that year, too, but this time, he was outstanding.  But Kamala Harris didn’t show up, and instead sent in a video with a kind of Saturday Night Live skit to help carry Kamala over the top.  Democrats are like that kid who didn’t study for the big test and showed up expecting to cheat on someone’s paper.  Democrats weren’t prepared to run a real campaign for power in America.  They counted exclusively on election theft to win, like all the other Marxist countries in the world presently do, and they were so disrespectful about it that they picked a candidate in Kamala Harris who would do whatever they told her to and run her campaign from concealment the entire time.  Because they have such little respect for the democratic process and the self-government concept of Americans in general, they were not able to compete when Trump made the campaign truly about competency and representation.  The strategies of personal destruction suddenly didn’t work at all with Trump because he didn’t need the Democrats to crown him one of the “cool kids.”  He already was one.  Trump has changed the definition of a cool kid over the last eight years.

The Al Smith Dinner was embarrassing for Kamala Harris because it was so out of step with the nature of the 2024 campaign.  There was no compelling argument to make on behalf of Democrats, causing them to leave the party, such as what Tulsi Gabbard and many others have done.  Just think about how many people have done the same thing all across the country, and they know what will happen in this election.  Now that the close of the election is near, even the big media outlets understand what will happen.  They tried to run the same closet campaign for Kamala that they did for Biden the first time, but people aren’t buying into it.  There is no COVID to cover for their massive attempts at election fraud, and most anybody who isn’t a crazy lunatic of anti-American sentiment is voting for Trump.  And as I have said all along, it will all come down to engagement.  Trump has engaged voters who are excited to vote for him.  Kamala Harris has a few fringed cat ladies and a hamster.  But nobody else.  Trump will break into the seventy millions.  Kamala will be lucky to get out of the sixties.  Trump will win the popular vote because there won’t be the same opportunities to cheat that were so common in 2020.  And the Democrats are panicking over it.  Even CNN has figured out that they will have egg on their face if they support Kamala, who had a particularly disastrous performance there, too, with Anderson Cooper.  When the smoke clears from this one, people will wonder how so many people got it all wrong, and they’ll point to that disastrous Al Smith Dinner with the video contribution by a weird Saturday Night Live skit as the root cause. 

I know quite a few Secret Service Agents, and they report that they can’t see the forest for the trees.  Even with all that I have said, they fear that Kamala Harris will win anyway because they genuinely think the “machine” of politics is truly in charge.  And I tell them they are too close to the situation to be objective.  But plenty of people want to argue with me and believe that Kamala Harris will win as a propped-up asset of the machine, and she thinks so, too.  That is until she was heckled at a recent rally where people broke out into a Trump chant, and she became furious about it.  I hear what everyone says about the machine being in charge.  But in America, that is not acceptable, and Trump has done everything that can be done to unite the country behind the Republican Party, which will have a significant impact up and down the ticket in general for all races.  I see significant losses for Democrats that will wipe them out generationally and even perhaps as a viable political party.  After all this, they may join the Whigs in history as they don’t represent the American people but a globalist ideology that most people find repulsive once they find out what it is.  And the Democrats were exposed through competition for really the first time.  Voters have been looking for someone like Trump to expose this shell game for a long time, and essentially, this is the first time that the stress fractures exposed Democrats for what they have always been hiding.  And it was never more evident than when Kamala Harris skipped the Al Smith Dinner in 2024, even with Chuck Schumer sitting right next to the podium where the speeches were given.  In a friendly venue, she couldn’t even perform there.  But Trump did, and did it very well, leaving no doubt who the winner of the presidency would be.  And history will never forget it.

The Secret to Elon Musk’s Success: His high score on the video game Diablo

I could tell Elon Musk was expanding his intellect as much as a few years ago, and I covered it as I witnessed it.  It was in the kind of books that he was reading, and because of that, I’m not surprised by his support of President Trump.  The only way you can remain a Democrat with Marxist foundations is through ignorance.  When you start learning things, you can’t support dumb politics.  While Elon Musk has always been intelligent and very successful, his political positions are more a result of knowledge than of upbringing or regional considerations.  For him, the realities of running his businesses have driven him to learn more to survive and, ultimately, provide him with a political point of view that facilitates productivity.  Having compassion for other people is one thing.  Destroying the world over compassion is quite another, and I could tell that as Elon Musk dealt with the realities of politics through his businesses, especially the Department of Labor trying to push him to unionize his Tesla plants, he was heading toward more small government than an imposing, all-powerful government that could take everything you own, and sit on FAA permits because you weren’t supporting their political party to stay in power.  For that matter, President Trump also went through the same kind of conversion throughout his life.  That doesn’t make all these people suddenly conservative the way I would be.  I grew up in a conservative area around a lot of conservative people, so I started that way.  As I learned more in life, my roots in conservative thought deepened.  But logic dictates that we all get to the same place once we figure out how the world works and the people in it strive to live in it. 

So, with all that said, people wonder why Elon Musk is so successful and why those who work for him are so engaged.  Now, I talk to many people at a consulting level.  If people listen to me, they are successful.  If they don’t, then they fail.  There isn’t any muddy middle.  There is no consensus on where everyone gets a participation trophy; success is a very rigid standard, and I always get asked about it by compelling people worldwide.   My joint statement toward any successful enterprise is that engagement is the most important and challenging thing to manage in a business.  You can see it in sports when two NFL teams play football.  Usually when one team wins over another given that all the players are the same essentially, they all weigh the same, they are all just as tall and have talented players at all the positions.  The element that determines winners from losers is the coaching staff and their ability to get good engagement from their players.  Labor unions tend to be unproductive because people aren’t motivated to engage in the business through collective bargaining.  They are always fighting the company management they work for to do as little as possible and still get paid wages at a highly engaged value.  Getting people engaged in a project or company is elusive, and the easiest thing that most management turns to is wages, hoping that people will be motivated to make more money and that they might work harder as a result of how much they are paid.  But of course, as I always say, money is not a good motivator.  Throwing money at people does not get people to be more engaged; most of the time, it lowers it as more money often destroys the things that make a person good and strive to be better.  Once a person stops striving for goals in their life, they tend to be less engaged in the things they do, from raising children to buying a new car. 

I thought it was interesting that Elon Musk during the middle of October 2024 had launched new Tesla products, the Tesla Bot and the Tesla Taxi, then a few days later launched with SpaceX, the first Super Heavy Booster into space carrying a Starship, then landed it back at Boca Chica right on target to be captured by the giant chopsticks, to be reloaded with fuel and to launch again.  It was a remarkable feat of engineering by thousands of people, and Elon Musk had created the culture that performed it.  But Musk wasn’t done.  The next day, SpaceX used a Falcon Heavy to launch the Europa Clipper, which is going to Jupiter to study a moon there, and it came off without a hitch.  That launch alone a few years ago would have resulted from a decade of work at NASA.  But after all that, do you know what Elon Musk was most proud of?  He leveled up in the Diablo video game, which he does quite a lot playing video games.  With all his success, he lives in a little shack at Boca Chica, runs around in t-shirts, and plays video games with his co-workers.  He’s one of the wealthiest people in the world, if not the richest, and he has no pretense of measuring success the way we traditionally do, with great wealth hanging from him in a social context.  And he cares about his high score in a popular video game. 

What is expected at Elon Musk companies, and I know this personally, is that he recruits and retains highly engaged people. Business schools have yet to unlock this mystery because everyone learns the same wrong things.  Elon Musk does a lot that goes well beyond Lean Manufacturing techniques, and no consulting firms in the world have yet figured it out.  But I’ll tell everyone here for free because I like you.  The secret to Elon Musk’s success is that he does not, as a management culture, rob his employees of their emotional investment in their work.  By providing a job, they have a means to make a living.  But he does not impose himself on their work and instead removes barriers to success.  Not success measured in monetary value.  Once people can pay for their lives, families, homes, and social engagements, they want to do work they feel good about.  Elon Musk gives them jobs in which they can invest to create high-engagement cultures.  Cultures where people want to work and express themselves through good work.  If you watch employees at SpaceX, you see them highly engaged at all hours of the day, 7 days a week.  Because they like their work, and it shows in what they do. Most companies miss these traits altogether because engagement is challenging to measure.  But once it is unlocked, the results are apparent.  Elon Musk showed how he gets high engagement by not being pretentious at so much success, especially after a week where he started it on stage with President Trump at that now famous rally at Butler, Pennsylvania.  Musk was equally impressed with his high score on Diablo; people see that in him and can relate to him.  When an owner or job provider does not rob people of the value of their work through social conditions that impose a static order upon them, people will then invest in themselves into a project because they want to, for all the same reasons that people play video games with no monetary compensation provided, at all.  People do things because they feel good doing them.  The world is far better off for a business or capitalist enterprise when people are engaged in their jobs because the products produced reflect that engagement.  And when people are allowed to invest in themselves and not be robbed by some cultural stigma, success always follows.   And winning becomes expected, not just some fantasy folklore from some island that time forgot.  But it is available to all who dare to tap into its vast secrets and opportunities for the curious and hardworking.
