Mt. Rushmore is Much More American than Washington D.C.: Yes, Progressives are trying to erase your country away completely

I hear a lot of people saying things like, “is all this on purpose?” People who don’t usually think too deeply about politics and just want to live their lives are starting to ask questions about what they see going on in politics. Most people trust that the government is doing their business with good intentions, so with the gas prices being so high, the continued worry that some pandemic virus will be unleashed by Bill Gates and the people at the World Economic Forum and that inflation will make buying an apple a situation of bankruptcy, people are starting to wonder if all these bad things are on purpose. That is when I reminded them that the Biden administration canceled in May of 2021 Trump’s executive order to construct The National Garden of American Heroes, which would be a fine addition to patriotic sites like Mt. Rushmore. Why would Biden and his team cancel such a patriotic project even as they sent billions of dollars to Ukraine and their war with Russia, which has stalled out and become a real line in the sand in the global war between a One World Order and sentiments of nationalism?   Biden and Democrats, in general, are progressives, which means they wish to “progress” beyond the idea of America. The downfall of America is actually one of the eight goals of the Desecrators of Davos in the World Economic Forum, so when Biden canceled that Trump project of patriotism, he was saying a lot, especially since it was done so soon in his acquired presidency. Progressives didn’t want Americans to think about their country in favorable ways. They don’t like the 4th of July and places like Mt. Rushmore. They want America to get rid of its constitution and to become a member of a global society where everyone is equal; even all the crappy little countries run by socialist tyrants. 

I spent the most recent weekend at a Fast Draw shoot where one of my friends had just returned from a big Fast Draw shoot that occurred in Sturgis, South Dakota, and it brought to my mind good memories of my time there a year ago when I had my entire family at Mt. Rushmore. It was a day I still think of at least once a day and was a very special occasion. Mt. Rushmore is one of those extraordinary places many intend to visit, but some never find the time. But I would say that if you can at all, or are planning a vacation to go somewhere anyway, to forget about the condo in Florida or some other trip. In these times, go to Mt. Rushmore and let it do what it was designed to do, reminding the people of America why America is worth fighting for. It’s one of those places that once you park in the garage and step up onto the terrace that aligns with the carvings of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln on the big rock wall high above, that the anger of the world toward America comes into sharp focus. Trump, during his administration, wanted to expand on the Mt. Rushmore experience to solidify more the patriotism Americans feel at places like Mt. Rushmore. I bought several books there that have turned out to be real treasures that I have read throughout the year, and it has given me a fresh perspective into all the bad things that we see happening on the nightly news. Enough of a perspective that I say to all those people asking if all this is on purpose with an affirmative, yes. Yes, they intend to destroy America. That’s what progressives want. That’s what the Democrat Party wants, as does the Desecrators of Davos. They want an end to America and its constitution, which is why Biden canceled Trump’s National Garden of American Heroes. They didn’t just steal an election when they took it from Trump; they intend to steal America as a whole and all of us with it. 

I’ve been to Washington D.C. and never find it very American. Sure, it’s the capital of our country, named after the first president. But it feels like a mess of memory and silly reverence to Masonic symbolism. It’s a city built out of superstition with all the streets and monuments tying America to some Egyptian sentiment with alignments to Jupiter, Saturn, Venus, and many others, complete with zodiacs all over the place that reflect a reverence of a new country without much history of its own trying to tie itself to the depth and lore of the ancients. That lack of character is why many who work in the D.C. swamp don’t fight for America but for the European ideas that founded the Masonic order and the kind of fraternities that spawn from their organizations. It’s also why so many political people and financial supporters turn toward pagan memories for supernatural aid for guidance in how to run a country, which obviously they all miss the mark. I say to anybody who wants to know, if you want to understand America, don’t go to Washington D.C.  America is not there. That is not the best of what America offers. But Mt. Rushmore is a monument to America that has captured the essence of what America is, majestic yet remote. Hospitable yet accessible and grand, all in the same sweep of sentiment. Mt. Rushmore is a much better representation of America than its own capital city of Washington D.C. The city’s main feature is a giant Egyptian obelisk, the tallest testament in that part of the world, and it has nothing to do with American pride and spirit. It’s a reverence to Egyptian beliefs as the Masons who built the city and started the country thought of them in star alignments and the power of ancient pagan gods. It’s not there to revere the work of Jesus Christ or the 5000 Year Leap of Christian faith that essentially made America unique. 

On the way to Mt. Rushmore is a little watering hole of a place just on the edge of the Badlands called Wall Drug. It’s a fantastic tourist trap that embodies all the great things about America in one specific place, and it’s one of those places that remind you of the tenacious spirit of the American mind. Built to satisfy the tourist traffic of people who make the pilgrimage to Mt. Rushmore, about an hour to the west, you get the feeling when you go there that no matter what happens in the outside world, America will always remain so long as you are at Wall Drug and the nearby Blackhills of South Dakota where Mt. Rushmore was carved. It’s a culture all of its own. It is one of the primary reasons that the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is such a popular yearly journey that is made so that the participants can touch the ideas of America far removed from the noise of the big cities and Masonic-created capitals. New York doesn’t get it, and Washington D.C. certainly doesn’t. Miami, Florida, doesn’t get it at all. But Wall Drug in South Dakota does, Mt. Rushmore, Sturgis, Deadwood, Keystone, Rapid City, they all get it, and if there were one place on earth where people could go to charge their batteries in these challenging times with the American spirit they crave, then I would recommend a trip to Mt. Rushmore and the surrounding areas for a week or so. I’ve done it recently, and it carried me well through the last year. And when my friend just returned from a shoot out there, it reminded me that my experience was not specific to me but is common to all people who travel there. So if you are looking for your country and don’t see it on the nightly news, even with gas prices being as high as they are, I recommend a trip to Mt. Rushmore. You certainly won’t regret it.

The Revenge of the Nerds: Google A.I. and the need to prosecute the tech tyrants for murder

I’m much less concerned about Google’s revealed artificial intelligence creation than I am in the tyranny itself of the tech tyrants. It was revealed recently by a Google engineer that the company had developed artificial intelligence with the mind of a seven-year-old and that it was conscious of God and its own life.   In my book The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, I speak about artificial intelligence and how to deal with it in the future and in business in general because it’s a certainty. We have to acknowledge it, but I don’t think it’s something we should fear. I don’t see artificial intelligence surpassing human intelligence because software engineers who write the code and create the platform are missing lots of elements of existence that go well beyond the 1s and 0s that computer programmers work with. Computation power and actual intelligence are very different things. I see A.I. as a manageable condition, not what many science fiction offerings have proposed: humans will at some point be subservient to our own lives to the machines we have created. But what we should be very wary of are the companies who have built A.I. like Google who has participated in mass exterminations of entire populations, such as what we saw with Covid, and allowing them to have too much power to use their technology to destroy the world in ways that A.I. will never be able to achieve on its own. The human hosts are still and will remain much more dangerous.

It’s clear that Google participated in suppressing information that could have saved lives during the Covid pandemic, which was created by governments for the purpose of governments, to gain more control over people’s lives and centralize all authority so that machines could eventually manage it. The end game of Covid, besides committing massive voter fraud in the 2020 election to get rid of President Trump because he was a threat to the New World Order of globalism, was to implement vaccine passports which would have given companies like Google a window into every human being on earth to “Google Map” us all with centralized controls. It was clear just a few months into the pandemic that there were medicines that could fight the effects of Covid, such as Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine, that Bill Gates paid a lot of money to suppress with phony articles in prestigious medical journals discouraging their use because the intention from the beginning was to stop society from functioning as capitalists and to resurrect the entire world into socialism, and to use mandated vaccines as the vehicle to deliver a mass monitoring system. Google and other tech tyrants participated openly, knowing the details from the outset, and worked to use their power to suppress valuable information that could have saved lives, and they must be prosecuted. For every YouTube video that was suppressed during the Covid pandemic based on corrupted science driving the world to a preset result, decided by Bill Gates and others like him who see the human race as a threat to planet earth and wish to stop that threat from the perspective of a radicalized religious fanatic. Google continued to use its power in the world to steer a political narrative regarding Covid that destroyed lives, actually killed people, and cost the globe trillions of dollars in lost economic value. And that isn’t forgivable. 

Google wasn’t alone in this Covid behavior. Facebook and Twitter also contributed to the misinformation, then captured the term for their own use to call anything that was not part of the Bill Gates paid for narrative a threat to the order of the world. That is what we must worry about because it’s these people who are also writing artificial intelligence. So if they are writing the programs we call A.I., there is a real threat to the world, and it’s not coming from Russia, Iran, North Korea, or China.   It’s coming from Google, Facebook, Twitter, and anybody running around bragging about the Metaverse. That was clear in this year’s World Economic Forum by the Desecrators of Davos. Clearly, by their plans, they visioned the new world economy as one where everyone stayed home like in the Steven Spielberg movie, Ready Player One. While that was an interesting movie, and while virtual reality is kind of a cool technology when it comes to video game playing, this notion that human beings are going to give up all interaction with the real world in trade for a virtual one is centrally controlled by the class of people I call, The Revenge of the Nerds types is unfathomably stupid and incomprehensibly naive. According to them at the World Economic Forum, these are the smartest people in the world. No, people will not give up wanting to see a real elephant in trade for a virtual one. People will still want to visit Rome; they won’t be satisfied with a virtual reality program where you can’t smell, touch, or buy a souvenir. The truth of the matter is that even the smartest people at Google aren’t that smart to encompass all the aspects of human need, or the necessities of life in general. But, they intended to inflict their small-minded assumptions onto the rest of us with force and even murder, and for that, we must teach them a lesson they will never forget. 

These tech tyrants, like in the old 80s movie, presented themselves in a way we felt sorry for them, and so long as they created companies that made our lives easier, like Google Maps does, or the products of Microsoft have over time, we put up with these Nerds. But deep down inside, there is a Revenge of the Nerds aspect to their characters; they were picked on in school, they didn’t get the hot dates, and they grew to resent society at large and, due to their massive insecurities, sought to remake the world into computer code they could deal with. So behind all the World Economic Forum strategies are essentially a bunch of socially awkward nerds who wanted to reel in the entire human race into something they felt comfortable with. They want revenge against the world because they never felt comfortable in it. As newly rich people, they found that their money could buy them all the respect they never had as kids, so their minds have left them and presented us with menaces to the world who will kill and ruin lives to bend the world to their comfort level. And that isn’t acceptable. And to develop artificial intelligence with these kinds of ideas in mind, to impose on the world central authority through vaccine passports, to put chips in all people so that every person can be regulated in some way or another, is essentially the Revenge of the Nerds plan to make the world into something they can deal with. And their intention to use artificial intelligence to do just that very thing is a threat to humanity. It’s something we cannot take lightly. It’s not the A.I. itself that is the threat. It’s the people writing the code and why. We have seen their intentions; they showed us how they are playing the game during Covid. And knowing that, we must punish them now instead of letting them get out of control again before they do have weapons like artificial intelligence to use against us and to subsidize their personal security problems with the assistance of computers to give them the power they’d otherwise never obtain. If there is a lesson we should have all learned from Covid, it’s to what extent these people mean to destroy the world and everyone in it.

The Best Thing that Could Happen with the J6 Committee Would be to Indict President Trump: Accelerating the end of the Democrat Party

We all know by now what the UnSelect Committee, who has been putting on a show trial over what they say is the darkest day in American history, January 6th, 2021, is up to. They are seeking to hide the election fraud they participated in, and they hope they can use the proceedings to indict President Trump and tie him up in court to disqualify him from running in 2024, which they are terrified of. And to all that, I think there would be nothing better for our country than to have Trump indicted because, in the process, there would be legal discovery and all kinds of a mess that would be blasted into the mainstream news cycle that has so far been contained from the public. The result of that would be a complete destruction of the Democrat Party. Which I think is destroying itself quite nicely. But an indictment of Trump would be the end of them and the established order of the Beltway, which would turn out to be far greater than just having Trump run for President again, only to go through the same kind of resistance we saw before. The pressure of Trump is far greater than actually being in the White House. There are a lot of people who could run for President in 2024 who could represent the MAGA movement.  Ron DeSantis comes to mind.  What is being built presently is a new kind of political movement that will far outlast many of the people currently holding office. The net result of all these efforts will save our nation from the looters and scumbags who have given us the mess we see now. But an indictment of Trump would accelerate the process in ways that nobody has been thinking about and would be very beneficial to the ultimate destruction of the Democrat Party due to the kind of case that would be put on full display for all to see. 

What we see happening with the J6 Hearing spectacle is the undoing of the George Bush era New World Order that Klaus Schwab and the other Desecrators of Davos are fully committed to today, with billions of dollars in personal assets fully dedicated to the change state of America from a capitalist country and into a socialist one. They stand to lose a lot of money and power if Trump returns to the White House, which is why they rigged the 2020 election. They couldn’t afford for people to run their own elections; it put at risk all the money and power they had built up over many years. It’s a globalist view of the world that started to be dismantled by the election of Trump in 2016. Back then, the system chiefs thought it was all a joke. They had rigged elections for years and knew how to keep things close to make Americans think they actually picked their own representatives. But most people didn’t believe in the system at all and just didn’t participate, making it easy for the “uniparty” to run all things any way they wanted to. They gave us fake wars and fake economic cycles. They manipulated everything to the gradual sell-off of our country to globalist investors while hiding their vile actions behind red, white, and blue patriotism and selling themselves as patriots as well. But truly, what they were preserving was a kind of Beltway aristocracy that many in the political class craved more than a thirsty person desires water in a hot desert. They wanted power over others more than anything else in the world, so they built a corrupt system to give themselves that power. They had to share it with other Beltway types, but so long as they were members of an elite aristocracy, they were happy to at least do that. 

Then along came Trump running as a person who didn’t need the donor class. He understood the media better than the media understood itself. And he knew how to make real business deals because he had built his brand doing so very publicly. So people showed up and voted for him in more numbers than the election cheats could deal with, and he snuck under the algorithm door in 2016, much to the surprise of everyone. Then, the Beltway, including Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, John McCain, Mitt Romney, and many others, worked for the next four years to undo the person that the people picked because the hidden little secret all along was that the Beltway ultimately picked the people it put in office. Voters were supposed just to play along, vote to make everything look like a choice, then go quietly back to sleep while the Washington Beltway types sold America away to everyone willing to pay a little cash for the opportunity. And in the process, they have committed so many vast crimes of excessive evil that the parameters were unfathomable to ordinary people. And while Trump was in office, so many crimes were committed to get rid of him, of the people’s pick, that many more crimes were committed by the FBI and the Department of Defense—especially regarding Covid. Many of the things that Wikileaks was publishing which could be traced back to many of the congresspeople and senators we see on television every night, were caught up to some extent or another in sedition, treason, and worse. Actions against America and its constitution left them no choice but to support complete insurrection to foreign interests to hide the crimes they had committed over many years. 

Ultimately, the desire to get rid of Trump and to prevent him from returning to the White House is the desire to cover up all these crimes with a phony trial by the UnSelect Committee over January 6th. The abuse of authority already displayed over Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, General Flynn, Rudy Guiliani, Steve Bannon, and Peter Navarro crossed the line long ago. But to put Trump at the front of the room with all the evidence he has collected along the way and the mouthpiece to sell it to the public, there would be no way for the Beltway types to survive that. We are dealing with new territory politically that we have never experienced before. An indictment would only accelerate a process of destruction that the Beltway has brought on itself. They are the ones with everything to hide, and their attempt to hide so much scandal behind the legitimacy of law and order would only work if people weren’t paying attention. But now, they are paying attention, and the bad guys no longer have control over the media. Social media is more than just Facebook, Google, and Twitter. Fox News does not represent conservatives like it once did; there are many other options now than there were even a few years ago. They don’t have control over what people say to each other. They do not have control of publishing, of anything really. The word of their crimes has gotten out, and now too many people know. It’s over for them already. By indicting Trump, they would only accelerate that process by years and compress them into months. So nothing would be better than to indict Trump. The government cannot live up to the measure they are enforcing on Trump, which is to say that he had an obligation to stop people from behaving the way they did on January 6th, to be angry at election fraud as they knew it at the time and felt that the government had not respected their vote.

The great fear behind the charade of the J6 spectacle is that the political class is not in charge of the millions of people they had taken for granted for decades. And the potential for all-out violence was a genuine fear for them. But in context, they would have nothing to fear if they had not acted so poorly and tried to hide so many crimes behind a façade of political theater. The tricks of old will not work any longer. People are awake to it, and they aren’t going back to sleep. And indicting Trump would only accelerate their own inevitable destruction, which couldn’t come sooner. So yes, indict President Trump, and let’s get the complete destruction of the Democrat Party out of the way once and for all.

‘The Bodies of Others’: What did you do during this historic time, did you just put on the mask and shut up, or did you fight back?

Before getting into the details of Naomi Wolf’s new book, The Bodies of Others, I would refer the reader to my articles of January and February of 2020 when I said from day one that Covid was a Pearl Harbor type of attack on our way of life from the climate change religious radicals like Bill Gates who would do anything at the time to get rid of President Trump during an election year.  Now, several years later, we know a lot more than we did then.  But just remember, what I said then, and have continued to say about Covid, which has turned out to be 100% correct.  So use that knowledge to consider the merit when I say that many books have now been written talking about the intent and aftermath of Covid-19 and the government’s needs for it, and what they were willing to do to implement global control over every single human being.  What lives they were willing to dispose of, and how many people they would sacrifice to do it.  We know with certainty now that Covid was made in a Chinese lab.  Dr. Fauci knew about it.  China knew about it.  Bill Gates funded the public relations campaign to support it, so he was well aware of what he was doing, and they purposely killed people to make their point as Covid was unleashed from China to bring the world to its knees with a military attack.  This time it wasn’t a nation-state like Russia, China, or Iran.  This time it was the administrative state of white lab coat bureaucrats, a kind of Revenge of the Nerds campaign to change the way the entire world did business by destroying capitalism and ushering in an age of global communism led by the World Health Organization and ultimately The United Nations. 

Since I made my initial statements on Covid and warned what the truly bad people of the world were up to, many books have been written that provide evidence to my warnings.   I knew what was going on because of my experience dealing with these types of people for years and understanding that they would commit such a level of vast evil.  Most people had a hard time accepting that premise or even seeing it.  When you spend your entire life trusting people in white lab coats and authority figures in general, they become a kind of parental figure in our lives that make it hard for us to question.  And that is what makes Naomi Wolf’s book different than all the other ones that have been written in the aftermath of Covid protocols and the vaccine mandates that have come after.  Naomi Wolf used to be one of the left-leaning Davos elites.  She was invited to the same parties and was part of the media culture perpetuating this attack.  So she was in a unique position to explore the hows and whys Covid happened and what the intention was all along.  And how so many millions of people could perpetrate it knowingly, but like the Milgram Experiment from the 60s, would put obedience to authority over the logic of individual thought in most cases, which spread that Covid evil in vast ways many are just now getting their minds around.  We are talking about an evil here that is so bad and horrible that it meant to hide itself in our society by being too audacious to consider, and that is how it moved throughout society.  In the process of all that, Naomi Wolf altered her political outlook and went through a bit of a revelation that many could understand.  That is why her book, The Bodies of Others, is the number one book being sold presently.  And also why Amazon is sabotaging it in every way they can as a bookseller.  It doesn’t matter; people are buying it anyway, by the bucket loads. 

What makes a person evil is the book’s central premise, that nice person you are having lunch with or conversing with at a dinner party, they seem so nice, how could they be evil?  Everyone seems helpful, interested, and worldly at those kinds of things.  So how do we go from that person, or those people, and suddenly they are killing hundreds of thousands of people and manipulating data so they can stir public opinion to change political philosophy out of sheer fear?  Because that was the essence of what Covid was, it was a manufactured bioweapon that was used to terrify the innate instincts of the entire human race and grossly abuse the authority relationships of all governments around the world to political upheaval.  A destruction of capitalism and to initiate the Great Reset that the Desecrators of Davos clearly had planned for many years.  That is what Naomi Wolf explores in her book as it chronicles her journey from one of those types into a thoughtful dissident who asks the question at the end of the book, “what did you do during the pandemic.” Did you just obediently put on the mask and yield to the authority figures, or did you fight back?  Most people just put on the mask, socially distanced themselves from others, got the mandatory vaccine shot, and hoped they wouldn’t be attacked for resistance.  And they have to live with that guilt now, and it’s painful for people.  That guilt will rot in them for the rest of their lives.  Some like her went along with it at first but, over time, realized what a mess it was and started to fight back.  Now she is an advocate for supporting constitutional freedoms and creating a defense from medical tyranny, which is a very real thing.  We have been taught to trust doctors from some of our youngest memories.  And that is how they attacked us.  Most everything we were told and that was done to us at the level of global politics was a lie by the authority figures in our lives, and it has left us in need of action, which we are just now starting to define. 

Reading books like The Bodies of Others helps provide context.  It’s about how authority figures, thinking from their perspective that adherence to authority was morality, no matter the cost, used other people’s bodies to advocate for their inbred tyranny.  The kind of utopian destruction that is talked about at those fancy dinner parties where everything seems so worldly after a bottle of wine and all the well-dressed participants start to look more wrinkled as the night wears on and clothes aren’t so neatly placed as they were at the beginning of the evening.  The essence of all such people is that they bring with them all the psychological problems of their youth; if they never overcame their own authority figures to embrace their own individual lives and the boldness it takes to live them, they seek to hide those insecurities behind process and rigid social systems governed by authority.  And to get rid of President Trump, the world was willing to go full authoritarian, to murder people for the sake of gaining power over the bodies of others.  They destroyed economies and people’s lives in many ways, but worst of all, they were willing to kill to perform their task, leaving us with an uncomfortable aftermath as to what to do now.  There isn’t much that culture provides that gives context to the problem.  But there are books that are written, books like The Bodies of Others, that open that door in a healthy way, a way our culture needs.  And they provide context so that we can understand what happened to us and what we have to do about it in the future.  Yet, regardless of the level of experience that there is on this matter, we are compelled to do something about what evil did to visit us during this dark time in history, and it requires us to be bold in what we do next.  Because of the many lives lost in the process and many lives ruined along the way, history will remember most of what the human race did to subdue this vast evil spread through authority figures for the worst reasons that intellect can conceive.  And before that can happen, we must understand it ourselves, and books like The Bodies of Others are the first step in doing that.

The Zimmer Power Plant Closed: You bet we are at war, and part of the strategy is to trick us into not seeing it

I spoke with many money people this past week, and one thing they all have in common is the difficulty in explaining what they are seeing in the finance world, specifically, the finance of energy. The Zimmer Power Plant just south of Cincinnati in Moscow, Ohio, just closed, and the rest of its employees will be gone by the end of June. It’s the only real industry in Moscow, and it’s going way. The trouble is that nobody understands why until I tell them. Then, of course, the reaction is, “nobody is that evil.” Which is part of the exploitation of the enemy, our belief that people are better than they really are, and that regulators who have put Zimmer out of business with green energy regulations have our best interests as a human civilization in mind. But it’s evident that what we are seeing coming through the green energy movement is a military attack that foreign attackers would have never attempted otherwise. No military in the world is going to dare take on the United States with military strength. Instead, they have attacked us in a way we have no means to see and deal with, through rules and regulations driven by ESG scores. If you wanted to attack America, then the power grid would be the way to do it, to rob our flourishing economy of its power so it can’t expand, while our enemy China is building power plants by the bucketloads to fuel their economic growth. As all these coal plants like Zimmer shut down, the uneasy question that comes up is, well, what will replace it? The answer, of course, is nothing. Solar isn’t going to get us there. Neither will wind. So what is the purpose of shutting down all these plants without a real, sustainable plan to deal with the loss of power? That’s where the eyes start looking scared among the finance people because they have no other way to explain what they are seeing.

If a foreign country, like Japan from World War II, attacked a power plant in Los Angeles to knock out power in our country, we would have called it an act of war. We would rally the troops, get them in planes; then, we would attack Tokyo and write many stories about the heroics for history to remember. We have all been trained to view war as tanks, planes, and troops on the ground through movies and television over our entire lifetimes.   We don’t think of federal regulators as the enemy. We don’t think of scientists as malicious. The government, our government anyway, is here to help, or so we thought. The possibility of our government selling us out to the World Economic Forum’s radical climate change plans through people like John Kerry and Joe Biden never crosses our minds because we see them as fundamentally American, despite party politics. And when they say they have our best interests in mind, we tend to believe them. That’s precisely what got us into so much trouble with Covid, a manufactured virus built in a lab in China and managed by Dr. Fauci, funded by Bill Gates, to bring the world to its knees and to put in power the new class of tech bureaucracy ran by the World Health Organization to force all nations to give up their sovereignty to fight this new virus.   The evil in all of that is just too much for most people to get their minds around. But that’s where the facts take us. It’s actually much worse than all that, but for most, it was easier just to wear the mask and take the vaccine shot rather than shatter their trust in the world’s bureaucracies and comprehend their malicious intentions. 

The Zimmer plant in Moscow started as a nuclear power facility but never passed its final inspections. In the aftermath of Three Mile Island, which was essentially a media-driven crisis rather than a real one, Zimmer was converted into a coal plant. Liberals have been attacking nuclear energy since its inception for the same reasons that they finally managed to shut down all the coal plants through Larry Fink’s ESG scores, to put limits on America’s growth and its industry, and to cripple capitalism like liberals seek to abort babies, to kill them before they are even born. Do you see the pattern in behavior, whether it’s the murder of babies with abortion or by killing American industry through power supply? The goal is to destroy growth so that the country is easier to defeat by global aggressors. I’ve been to Zimmer many times, and even as a young plant, it always felt like it was old and ready to be killed off because liberal politics have been attacking it since it was built to accommodate the growing power needs of the Cincinnati Tri-State area. And now, after a long fight, the owners of Zimmer have decided that it’s not worth it. The writing is on the wall. Biden is in the White House, the administration is connected intimately to the Desecrators of Davos, and they have a war against fossil fuels. There’s no money in hanging on to a coal plant that the Biden administration, like the Obama administration before it intended, would destroy all fossil fuel methods and replace them with undeveloped green energy. Zimmer was projected to stay open for another five years, but it was recently announced that they’d close five years earlier. 

I see it as an act of war by an inserted Biden administration. The election fraud occurred so that this war against American capitalism could continue. Even surrounded by proof of election fraud, the malicious nature of the medical community using Covid as an authoritarian power grab, and now these radical intentions against America’s power grid, most people can’t get their minds around the idea. It’s too much, too fast, and conducted by all the people we have been taught our entire lives in public education to trust, the media, the government, white-coated doctors, and federal regulators. There isn’t any plan to cover the gaps left in the wake of Zimmer and the many other coal plants that are being forced to shut down by the new boards of directors installed from BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street with progressive radicals who put climate change as a religion to the most important consideration. They aim to shut down all our power options as a nation and destroy our ability to produce anything. If you were competing with America as a foreign country, what better way to destroy them than by disabling their power grid and blaming it on some made-up nonsense like “climate change.” And what’s worse is that these ESG scores are only being implemented in competing markets to help China. So let’s see, the Covid virus which shut down our economy came from China. The ESG policies come from the World Economic Forum, which has put China-style authority as its goal for the future state of global politics. Even as America shuts down power plants like Zimmer, China builds dozens of them, and all that pollution blows over the Pacific Ocean through the jet stream and ends up in America anyway. So what’s the only purpose behind it all? Well, it’s war. It’s a war against all of us in America, and it’s being waged on us by the kinds of people we were taught to trust so that this very kind of thing could happen. We’ve all been played as suckers, and while we are spinning around in circles trying to figure it all out, the evil intentions are coming at us at full speed. And they don’t care if we have our lives destroyed in the process. After all, that’s the purpose of war. And you better believe it, we are at war.

Joe Biden, the Sucker: Being mounted on the trophy wall while he’s still alive

Don’t get me wrong; I have no love for Joe Biden. He’s a scum bag of a person who spent his life being a sleazy loser. He’s a bad dad; just look at his kids, a lousy husband, his goofy wife, a bad person, at his life; he’s a failure at everything he has ever done. Any high office he has ever held, he was put in place by people who were really in power because they knew they could control the compromised old fool, including putting him in the White House the first time to babysit Barack Obama as a radical Democrat born in the living room of the domestic terrorist, Bill Ayers. But I couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for Joe Biden as he spoke on Jimmy Kimmel’s show about winning 81 million votes during the last election. It sounded like he really believed it because people around him told him that, and he wanted to believe it. This after he had just fallen on the stairs again on Air Force One on his way to that show. People might say, “but Joe Biden’s in the White House; he’s very successful.” And the rumors of Joe Biden’s frustration over that very issue are leaking; he’s not happy with what he’s seeing. Nobody listens to him; his handlers constantly correct him in the media. He’s starting to realize what the scam has been all along. It was him, radical progressives with global intentions are setting him up, and they picked Joe because he’s old. After all, he’s compromised, and they knew he would do anything for the title of president, including selling whatever was left of his soul. All he had to do was do what they said, stand where he was instructed, and he’d die being president of the United States and could at least have that to show for his long life as a sell-out. But the trade is now becoming apparent, and he’s starting to worry about it.

It was clear there was something wrong when suddenly, Joe Biden had been polling in the middle of the pack for the Democrat Party just ahead of the South Carolina primary, and Bernie Sanders, the socialist, was still out in front. The Party knew it had to do something; it couldn’t let Bernie Sanders win the nomination. They wanted the platform without the baggage, and there was Joe Biden, a continuation of the Obama White House and a guy with a reputation as a moderate sitting there for the taking. So other Democrats dropped out, deals were made, and the media propped up Joe Biden so that he could suddenly win that South Carolina primary and the rest was history. Biden was told to shut up, sit down, stay in the basement, and the Party would take care of the rest. And by the “party,” we are talking about the “uniparty,” the establishment types connected to the door of the World Economic Forum, the legacy of the Bush family New World Order and the miles of track laid by people like Henry Kissinger for many years to establish the next phase of Beltway, “Georgetown” politics, the long craved reconnection to European aristocracy by an administrative class ran by the United Nations. The big story for “the party” was to get rid of Trump. Biden would just be going along for the ride. But the window was closing quickly; the natives were getting restless in America, especially with all the Covid lockdowns that were going on and continuing through to the election of 2020. They had to move fast! Biden had one job, shut up, sit down, and the “party” would take care of everything. Just stay alive long enough to get rid of Trump and grab the White House for the Democrat Party. Could Joe do that much? Joe was ready to play ball.

Maybe Joe lived longer than they thought he would. But now he’s seeing the writing on the wall. The Biden policies, not written by the Biden White House but by the controllers who control the strings that make the inserted President move, were destroying America right on schedule. The goal was to do it before the next election cycle and to transfer power over to the new governing body, the United Nations, which served as a representative state to the World Economic Forum collection of corporations ready for this new global economy. Joe Biden, as the compromised loser they knew he was, would do anything for the title, including letting them completely sabotage the American way of life with high gas prices, big international wars, food shortages fueled on by destroyed factories, supply chain problems created by policy, and hundreds of other acts of deliberate misconduct meant to destroy America from the inside out. By the time Americans would figure it all out, Joe Biden would be gone due to age, and he would be the fall guy that the history books remembered. He’d be the last American president, so from that perspective, Joe Biden was the obvious pick to win that South Carolina primary and do what Democrats have wanted for a century. But they needed someone they could control more than Bernie Sanders to pull it all off. And they needed someone to take the fall when it was all over, and due to his advanced age, Biden would not be around much longer. The history books are already written to explain it all away. Biden’s policies killed America, and it had to look for survival under the new controls of the United Nations. China held all the debt, so it became the new ruling class of the United Nations model. And that would be it.

Now when Joe Biden looks in the mirror, he sees the sucker the rest of us see. He’s not the same guy talking about kids rubbing his hairy legs or challenging people to pushups. He has been set up to take the fall, and he lived too long to see it explode before he was out of the way. The timing was everything, so his handlers had to destroy the country. At the same time, Biden still sat in the Oval Office, so the blame is happening on his watch as opposed to some aftermath from the funeral of an American President, where sentiment might take away the sting from a sentimental public. No, America hates Joe Biden for all the reasons he was put in place, to draw attention away from the insurgents, the same people who started the Obama White House in the living room of known terrorists. All the Saul Alinsky followers who had been plotting America’s end for many decades. And in live time, on television daily was the compromised carcass of a president being mounted on a trophy wall before he was actually dead. And the end of America was being blamed on him openly. That’s not quite what he signed up for, it’s like becoming a doctor as a heart surgeon, but upon completing medical school, he was told that you have to go clean the toilets. Joe’s value to the ruling class of aristocrats and globalist lovers was that he was so hapless. They would have never put a competent person in office because that would make it harder for them to control. Instead, they needed a hapless fool they could easily manipulate who was too old to live very long, so they could put the blame on his carcass once the deed was done. And when Joe Biden looks in the mirror these days, that’s what he sees, which he doesn’t like.  But, it’s what he signed up for.

Liberty Township Trustees Pass Resolution NO 2022-062: Taking leadership to preserve constitutional guidance based on what we learned from Covid

It’s good to talk about positive stories and the excellent work by the Liberty Township Trustees, Tom Ferrell, Steve Schramm, and Todd Minniear, to pass Resolution NO. 2022-062 (the Reaffirming Our Commitment to Constitutional Principles) on June 7th, 2022. It was something unique and memorable. It was good to see government on the local level taking proactive action that was meaningful. And as I pointed out in speaking in favor of it, after Covid and the many government failures in reaction to it, the investment world needed something to reassure everyone that should something as disastrous as Covid ever happen again, there was a plan to deal with it. We, at this point, have to plan for some form of that eventuality in the political world we live in, that at the very least, local government will work on behalf of the people of their community to at least ask constitutionally based questions on the merits and legality. It was a horrible circumstance that all our laws and regulations were turned away from our systems of elections and were turned entirely over to health officials in Ohio and Butler County, which were unconstitutional in many tragic ways. So it took a considerable amount of leadership from the Liberty Township Trustees to take a proactive measure to reassure the public that local government was still in charge and would be in the future.

At first, when this idea of talking about making Liberty Township something of a Constitutional Zone it sounded to me like a redundant message. After all, all public officials take an oath to the Constitution, both federal and state, so by saying that they were a Constitutional Township was like saying the sun was out on a sunny day at the beach. That is until I went to Liberty Center to have lunch and noticed that the playground there was still shut down after two years of Covid protocols. Many of those protocols look ridiculous in hindsight. Still, when the playground was shut down, there had been movies about pandemics and various zombie apocalypses that had satisfactorily terrified the public, which health officials exploited for global gains of political power, which is a subject that we could write books on. Those books are emerging to tell those stories of deceit and corruption. But as to kids and the playground at Liberty Center, it’s a nice place in what I consider one of the best shopping destinations in America. Parents have enjoyed taking their kids there to let them play indoors and in air conditioning. The food court is right there, so it is a nice place for the community to come and interact with each other. But after two years of Covid, it was still shut down, even as most of the rest of society had gone back to normal. As I ate my food, the lights were mostly out, many of the upstairs portions of the mall were vacant of store activity, and it looked like a pretty sad situation. 

So I called up Todd Minniear, who is one of the newest Liberty Township Trustees, and asked him what was going on with the mall. Were Covid protocols still keeping these guys from opening up their play area? As it turned out, mall management wasn’t sure how to proceed. They were waiting on someone from the government to come and tell them that it was alright to reopen. But of course, nobody was ever going to come from the government to do so, so the poor playground was left in limbo, leaving that whole upstairs portion of the mall to have very little social activity.   I couldn’t help but add up in my head how many potential investors who might want to open a store in the mall saw this sad sight and moved on. If they had seen kids playing and parents enjoying talking and eating from the food court, they might have made a few million dollars of investment into a new store at Liberty Center, which it needs. Brick and mortar stores are a challenge under great economic conditions. So under a Biden economy, that only gets trickier. After some telephone tag that went on for a few weeks, Liberty Center found it was able to reopen its play area to the public, so it’s open now. Shortly before attending the Constitutional Resolution for the next Liberty Township meeting, I had lunch there again. This time it looked like I remembered it: kids playing, parents enjoying watching them, and having a nice place to sit and have some food. The lights were on, and things looked alive again. There was some exciting new construction on the second floor, somebody had made some investments, so it was a good story. One that should have never been bad in the first place, but it would be good to see something good happening that people could now enjoy. 

For many, it is a terrifying prospect to have to go through something like Covid again. I have several copies of the state and federal constitutions that I refer to often, and by reading them, there is no reason to be concerned. I felt that way during the entire Covid shutdowns in Ohio and across the nation; every case that was put before the courts challenging the health directives was losing. We should never have done half the things that were done in reaction to Covid. The real science shows that there were medicines available at the time that could have easily contained it as a public menace. The problem was in the new way that we allowed health experts to gain control through an emergency, the management of our country. We had never seen something like that happen before, and it certainly wasn’t the fault of Liberty Center in following the orders that flowed down to them from the state.   But in the aftermath, no leadership from those same experts came out in public and said, “it’s safe again.” Or, “sorry, there was never really a danger; we overreacted. Sorry if we destroyed lives and cost everyone billions of dollars, trillions of dollars nationally. We’re sorry.” No, they just stayed in their offices and left everything to the rest of the world to figure out. So Liberty Center was in limbo until Todd Minniear started making phone calls and asking questions. From the mall management side of things, they would expect someone from leadership in the community to ask those questions and get the answers, which is how the playground reopened. And the story ended up being a good one. 

Resolution No. 2022-062 passed with a surprisingly large crowd clapping, and all the Trustees seemed to enjoy a positive thing for a change. After the meeting, I was able to talk to Steve Schramm and Tom Farrell, who were eager to tell me about all the things that go on behind the scenes where they fight for the Constitution and the protection of Liberty Township all the time. The trouble is that the public doesn’t see all those phone calls and questions. All they know is that Covid shut down the world once, and they needed to know that someone who represented them would be able to ask questions and challenge health directives in the future should something like that happen again. Because without that guidance, those investment dollars might just stay someplace safe and not flow into some new project. As we saw with Covid, the uncertainty of medical tyranny might just return. Only this time, the Trustees had proclaimed that they were there to help and would ensure that the rules of the Constitution would prevail in Liberty Township. Which, for many people, was a reassurance they desperately sought from somebody offering leadership after two years of scary indecision and protocols that were abruptly un-American.

Covid Deaths Were Part of the Strategy: An evil so vast that many can’t comprehend it

The difficult thing is to consider the vast level of evil we are dealing with here, to admit to ourselves that the Administrative State, for lack of a better collective term for the mass behavior, is vastly evil in incomprehensive ways and that they purposely have used that audacity to murder people on a global scale. Listening to Dr. Harvey Risch on the Warroom with Steve Bannon, it was the first time a person from the academic side of the discussion admitted in the open something I have been talking about since the beginning. But coming from him, it was shocking.   We weren’t talking about radical conspiracy theorists here; this was one of their own, from the academic viewpoint regarding the actions of the Administrative State and its preservation as an evil entity using Covid-19 as a murder weapon, what many had been thinking about, but had yet consciously admitted it in a news flash kind of way.   This topic was hot recently because of Neomi Wolf’s book, The Bodies of Others which digs into many of the terrible deeds and motives that occurred behind the Health Department’s push to gain administrative control over virtually every person’s life in the world and to ruin those lives as they saw fit. Other books had been out, such as Dr. Peter Breggin’s book, Covid 19 – We are the Prey that had been calling attention to this detrimental problem, but there was some great levity to this interview with Dr. Risch that was the culmination of all this investigation that pointed to just one all-inclusive word, evil. 

This isn’t the kind of information that you’ll find on Fox News or NBC, for that matter. Pharmaceutical companies and their advertising dollars completely control those outlets for the news. So they haven’t covered the biggest story in the history of mankind because they can’t. They are bought and paid for by the vast amounts of money that are behind this evil push to actually kill people to fulfill some global plot of population control. The crazy lunatics of the fringe climate change movement, such as Bill Gates, obviously have no problem with the mass murder of millions of people, and they have hidden that desire behind the invented Covid-19 virus that was created through gain of function by Dr. Fauci’s people in a Chinese lab in Wuhan. The virus was released during a hot election year where the perpetual plot to overthrow President Trump was a key need of the Chinese to avoid the trade war that they were about to undergo, and they didn’t like it. That history we have talked about abundantly, and as bad as it all is, that’s not the worst of it.

According to Dr. Risch, there were discussions of preventing the public from getting access to ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine as a corrective action to the impending Covid-19 as early as 2019. That means that they knew what they were planning to do, much earlier than even the Event 201 in New York that year, where they actually role-played the viral outbreak, which was followed completely just a few months later in February and March of 2020. The medical community was knowingly planning the murder of many thousands of people by denying them the medicine needed to fight Covid once it was released from China because they wanted the shock and awe of the death count to get the attention of the public and change their behavior toward a more favorable climate change public position. Without the deaths, there would be no public outcry for change, so the plan to kill people as part of the decision-making process was a substantial part of their strategy. And the governments of the world played right into their hands. It’s the worst death cult that has ever been unleashed on earth, and it’s every bit as bad as the imagination can support. This explains why all the media outlets were ready to project their death meters on their broadcasts and why so many governors and health departments were all ready to go early in 2020 with the lockdown procedures and the media narrative. While most people were shocked at what was happening, many from the administrative state side of things were ready to kill people to advance their social cause as viewed from the liberal mindset.

We often point to Hitler’s behavior in Germany toward the Jews as an ultimate act of mass murder and evil. But what happened with Covid-19 was far, far worse. Every advertiser in pharma, every government who thought that by killing off people that the earth might be saved from climate change, every scientist looking for funding from Dr. Fauci who knew the plan but kept their mouths shut so not to jeopardize their funding they, all knowingly committed mass murder by giving an innocent population a virus that was made through gain of function, by our own Department of Defense and released by a communist government that wanted desperately to torpedo the Trump presidency and to drive the point home, they needed deaths to get everyone’s attention, so to serve the needs of climate change, a religion for the political left that they are as fanatic over as suicide bombers who kill people in hopes of being greeted by an orgy of virgins in the afterlife. What we just experienced on a global scale is mass insanity from the mind of murderers, and the crime is so big that no government in the world can get its mind around how to deal with the situation. And until recently, nobody could even discuss that evil without sounding like a radical conspiracy theorist. But this is no conspiracy; it’s true and getting worse by the day as we learn more and more about what really happened. As I said initially, the information is getting out, the books are being written, and the guilty parties are being exposed. So far, I think the Robert Kennedy Jr. book The Real Anthony Fauci is the most damning of all the books. But the other books mentioned here tell the story we all need to hear. But there isn’t anything more powerful than hearing from people who were in the know, like that Dr. Risch interview on the Warroom. It’s a stunning revelation that the murder of people due to Covid was pre-planned and considered acceptable. And knowing that, we have to deal with these characters with a new assumption, not that other people always intend good, even if they make vile mistakes, which had been the assumption regarding Covid-19. In a dire situation, people meant well, and mistakes cost lives. No, we are dealing with people more evil than Hitler or any other mass murderer from history. Covid was meant to kill people, and the means to save themselves were denied from a planned beginning by people who clearly had evil intent from the outset. And until we deal with that, the world will continue to be vulnerable to more vile acts even more vicious. This is evil so bad that our minds cannot grasp it, and that evil counts on our lack of ability to conceal itself in our living world, through our news media, through our politics, through our rules and regulations to prey on the innocent and consume our very souls for the maniacal and twisted plans of infamy in some Hellish plot meant to end all mankind, and nothing less.

A Review of ‘Top Gun: Maverick,’ picking America over the illusions of globalism

For me, movies at the theater have always been measurements of social and political life. What films are made and what people vote on at the box office to see are often accurate predictors of what life will be three or four years away. For instance, I pointed out many of the woke problems that Hollywood would have in the pre-pandemic period where they got caught playing along with liberal politics only to nearly destroy their entire industry. As leftists, they were suckered and played to the future aims of Larry Fink and the Desecrators of Davos goals of global domination through the back door of finance. It was so bad that it has damaged the Disney Company in profound ways that will likely never recover. So it’s not enough for me to just say that the new Top Gun: Maverick movie is good, which it is. I’ve listened to all the reviews at this point, and I haven’t heard one yet that didn’t think the movie wasn’t spectacular. It was great, spectacular, wonderful, fun, and energetic; it was all kinds of great things. But there’s a bigger story here that everyone seems to miss, which is really the most critical factor. Top Gun in 2022 was noticeably, almost unapologetically, not “woke,” and that declaration was rewarded in huge ways at the box office. The film made $160 million domestically over Memorial Day weekend. It brought in an additional $139 million globally in all the other markets, giving it a roughly $300 million total in its first weekend. What does that mean? Well, people who don’t usually go to movies went to see this film, and it reveals the nature of an untapped market that Hollywood has ignored as they attempted to trade dollars for ESG scores. But this movie was tossing that measure out the window and going back to what worked, which is a significant decision.

Hey, I come from the 80s, where Hollywood used to make movies like Top Gun every week, and there was a new top 40s song released every Friday, or so it seemed. It was a rich culture where Ronald Reagan was president, and everything we saw and heard wasn’t tied to some political or social message like things are now. I had been looking forward to this new Top Gun movie since 2019 when it was supposed to come out in the summer of 2020. But that was interrupted obviously by the “pandemic,” which shut down movie theaters all across the country, and it looked for a while as if movie theaters would not survive to ever allow Top Gun the sequel to release.   Once they missed their 2020 release window, they might not have ever recovered it, so the movie has been held up for release for over two years, and a lot has changed over that period. Hollywood obviously was targeted by radical leftist globalists early in the process, going back to the 1960s. However, film executives still measured their success in dollars and cents, so that impact didn’t really hit the industry hard until Larry Fink and the gang started putting ESG scores to the film industry to secure financing for projects that would be the early formula for all corporate America after the 2008 housing bubble collapse and the start of the Obama presidency. After that, movies made a transition to hide the fact that they were pushing away domestic audiences and hiding the new numbers in global markets that were hoping to trade China for America, the way most corporations have been assuming would be the reality in every industry, from steel production to microchip manufacturing. 

Many have come to understand what I have been saying about the pandemic from the beginning, that it was always a fake crisis created by world governments in service to the Desecrators of Davos at the World Economic Forum, who wanted to push an economic change state that would give them control over the money flow of the world. Movies like Top Gun, which Paramount Pictures had already produced, were already done, and they were trying to adjust to this new market economy. They weren’t sure where their future audience would be and what kind of movies they would want to see. To appeal to the China movie market, the filmmakers had even taken off Maverick’s flight jacket the Taiwanese flag so as not to make the Chinese upset with the recognition. But fans of the movie noticed this in the previews and lashed out. So by the time the film was released, Paramount had put the flag of Taiwan back on Maverick’s jacket and pretty much threw caution to the wind. And what ended up on screen by release day in 2022 was an unapologetically American film, and it paid off big time for Paramount Studios. A bluff had been called in the world, and ironically, Paramount Studios was rejecting the premise of the World Economic Forum. They will go down in history as one of the first American companies to do so. The money for most economic activity is in the United States. Here was a studio essentially rejecting globalism and all its illusions for the gold of a domestic audience, and that is the biggest story of Top Gun: Maverick. And because of it, many other American companies are going to follow.

I call it the American Sniper market, which Clint Eastwood obviously revealed in the popular movie, the hidden Trump voters, the MAGA movement that people see on television waiting for President Trump to show up in Nebraska for a speech six hours ahead of time. Paramount Studios had obviously learned something from their popular streaming show, Yellowstone, that the actual money to be made in movies was from traditional American audiences. And they allowed Tom Cruise and Jerry Bruckheimer to make the movie that was pro-America the way they wanted. So what Top Gun: Maverick became was not just a throwback to the 1980s but an American flag-wrapped sentimental journey into the glories of American life that communicated to the world all the elements of American exceptionalism that the Desecrators of Davos wanted to destroy. And it put it on full display, which was remarkable. The last 15 minutes of the movie were quite audacious, especially to the way the world’s sensibilities are, especially in markets like London, Paris, and the Middle East. It was the kind of exceptionalism that only Americans would understand, and they certainly supported it by flocking to the movies in mass numbers to see it. And boy, was it worth it. I have not seen a better ending in film since the 1980s. Those last 15 minutes were the best since then and were quite remarkable. And it wasn’t by accident. Tom Cruise and the filmmakers knew what they were doing, and they put it all on film. Top Gun: Maverick was a special movie, not just in what ended up on the screen, but in what it says about the strength of American culture after one of the darkest periods the human race has ever experienced, a global takeover by the technocrats for world domination, starting with arts and entertainment. And Hollywood oddly chose the American people, the Trump-voting public, which was a bit of a surprise. Shockingly at the start of the movie, before the story even happened, Tom Cruise thanked the audience for coming back to the movie theater and the proclamation that they made this movie for them. And that he hoped they’d enjoy it. In other words, it was Tom Cruise asking for forgiveness on behalf of Hollywood. Which, based on the box office numbers, they were willing to do. And in that effort, we have just had a glimpse of the future, and it says many great things that are about to unfold.

Elon Musk Voting for Republicans: There is no way an intelligent person can support Democrats for anything

The sudden shock of Elon Musk saying that he is now a Republican or that he’ll vote Republican in the upcoming midterms is not a surprise. Actually, as a guy now in his 50s, he’s right on course for where many people arrive during their lives if they have reasonable intelligence. You really can’t be an intelligent person and be a Democrat. It’s impossible to reconcile intelligence with liberalism. Liberalism is a feeling not founded in logic, so anybody who has some level of intelligence will eventually figure out that liberal ideas are ridiculously stupid. Elon Musk has tried to make liberal ideas work. He was successful young and enjoyed the company of idealistic young people. He even smoked pot on the Joe Rogan podcast. But he has never been good with the Biden administration. Biden wants electric cars with massive government infrastructure. Musk has built several companies that are very independent of government influence, even if he did take government subsidies to start those companies. Ultimately, Musk has learned a hard lesson in life that the government wants to run private industry and their means to do that is always through labor unions under the protection of the Department of Labor. So the Biden administration has targeted Tesla with its wrath to protect their own investment into Ford and General Motors, hoping to use high gas prices to drive consumers to buy those dumb electric cars, the fancy golf carts. Tesla was the first, but the government wants them and Elon Musk out of the way because Musk won’t allow unions to run his shops, and a hard lesson has been learned that has caused the billionaire to look to Republicans for sanity.

This path that Musk is on, a gradual conversion over to Republican thought, isn’t new. Ronald Reagan went on a similar track. So did Donald Trump. There are lots of people who used to be Democrats who get to their 40s and 50s and life and realize that Democrats are takers, looters, and every kind of parasite that you can imagine. And they grow up and away from liberalism and become more conservative as they get older. Musk has been saying that he has stayed the same but that the political spectrum has moved radically to the left, which is true to a certain extent. The political left we see today is what I have been saying for decades was always beneath the surface.

But additionally, there comes a time when you realize that doing business with Democrats is impossible unless you give over everything you own to their view of collectivism. With Musk doing so well with Tesla and SpaceX, it’s clear that he will not be able to control those companies and still continue to vote as a Democrat. The illusion that Democrats are anything but professional looters in the world comes to anybody who lives long enough to reconcile reality. You hear a lot of Democrats who become Republicans. But you don’t see a lot of Republicans turning into Democrats. When you look at an electoral map of America, there aren’t many Democrat blue areas. There are massive groups of dependents made that way due to Democrat socialism, but people generally don’t choose to penalize themselves with liberal ideas. That is another reason why Democrats are always looking for young people and illegal immigrants to keep their political base intact. Democrats need people without much life experience or understanding of the American way of life to buy into their collectivist political philosophies because they lose many of their members to Republicans, especially later in life. For Democrats, the political game is just smoke and mirrors. 

Musk’s journey was inevitable. Traditional conservatives may not want to let Musk have a seat at the table due to his beliefs in transhumanism and non-Biblical thoughts. But in the world of ideas, all conservatives have some basic concepts in common, the understanding that government doesn’t make jobs. It simply loots off what others do create. For Musk, there is no way to go to Mars and have a human race that moves into space to live. No socialist community on Mars will be successful, so when you look at things like that, the only way to fulfill Elon Musk’s dreams of going to space and living on Mars is to embrace capitalism aggressively because there is no other way to start a prosperous society or to maintain it without capitalism. All the variations of Karl Marx’s philosophy were always rooted in failure, which is to say all of the modern Democrat party and anybody in the world who calls themselves a progressive. Many people go to college and learn a liberal education. They do all the dumb liberal stuff like party too much and listen to all the wrong kinds of music. They try to dedicate their lives to altruism. But once those people start having families and those families grow up, it becomes quite apparent to most intelligent people that Democrats are the wrong way to go, and they gradually turn into Republicans. I would go so far as to say that you cannot call yourself smart and not be a Republican. It’s not a matter of team politics; it’s simple logic. A person’s journey along a political spectrum is driven by what works in the world and what doesn’t. 

The contrasts between a Trump presidency and now the Biden mess will produce many more Elon Musk types who used to walk the fence between liberals and conservatives. I never liked the murky middle because it allows the looters of the world to hide among the good and hard working. Liberals are like the water boy on a football team that wins the Super Bowl. They get to be part of a winning team without doing much work at actually producing a win. Liberals suck the life out of everything they do, and when you build great companies like Elon Musk has, who are doing great things in the world, the problem moves from cosmetic lip service to liberalism to downright hatred.   Especially when you are the first to actually make electric cars to make all the environmental climate change fanatics happy, only to be shoved out of the market because the local labor union isn’t running the management of your company, once you realize how the game is played and what Democrats actually stand for, there is no way a reasonable person could call themselves one. I watched Donald Trump go through the same basic trajectory in his life. When he was doing The Apprentice for NBC, he was much like Musk, playing on the liberal side of things. But Trump married a conservative woman who pulled him in the right direction, and over time, during his marriage, he had no choice but to move toward the Republican Party. Many people were like Trump and Musk; they might be fiscally conservative but socially liberal. However, life has a way of demanding that fiscal and social policy must be aligned; there is no way to cheat the system. You can’t behave like a liberal at a dinner party and still run great companies, or a great country, or even raise a good family. You have to be conservative to do things well in life, which means that those who want to do well must become Republicans. Elon Musk is a smart guy and, late in life, has figured out the obvious. So it’s no miracle that he’s planning to vote Republican. And behind him are a whole lot of other people too, who have come to the same conclusions. They always do.
