The West Chester Tea Party is Not Antisemitic: Trying to control the world through managed free speech established by institutionalism

It’s all About Politics and candidates who are afraid to let people see who they really are in a setting they can’t control

Supposedly, there was a meeting at the West Chester Tea Party at the St. Gertrude the Great Catholic Church on September 5th, where accused vitriolic hatred toward the Jewish people was expressed in antisemitic rhetoric, and it was a news story that gained much attention. And it was members of the “Republican Party” who tipped off the Cincinnati Jewish Community Relations Council, pressing them to denounce the West Chester Tea Party for its actions. Apparently, there was a guest at that September 5th meeting where topics about the Jewish people’s role in the world came up. This Jewish organization wanted to attach that discussion to a form of controlled speech that we see as such a strategy of the political left, where they determine what parameters of debate anybody is allowed to have. Anyone who dares to step outside those boundaries will then be attacked publicly, such as what is being attempted by the West Chester Tea Party. And if that was all it was, we could perhaps overlook it. However, I have a long affiliation with the West Chester Tea Party and Tea Party groups in general, and of course, as Paul Harvey used to say, “there’s the rest of the story.” This isn’t about hate speech being expressed over a controversial speaker. But I would say this is all about the West Chester Tea Party coming out and not endorsing Lynda O’Conner for the Lakota school board and ensuring people knew about it. I wrote an article that has been seen by many thousands of people on August 27th, 2023, establishing that the West Chester Tea Party would not endorse Lynda for her next run for the school board. So just a few days later, at this September 5th meeting, supporters of Lynda were looking for something to attempt to water down that lack of endorsement because Lynda has been affiliated with the West Chester Tea Party for over a decade. And the Tea Party just didn’t become an anti-semantic group a few weeks ago.

How do I know all that? Well, because I know all the people involved and how it works. I know how phone calls are made and the favors from the media are granted. I understand that the West Chester Tea Party is an open, free-speech-oriented group and that the caricature created by an institutionalized religious group does not reflect who they are. Many tempers have flared in the background over their lack of endorsement. I’ve heard many of them myself and I just let it ride out. I can understand Lynda’s feelings being hurt, but she has brand damage that she did to herself. So getting mad at the West Chester Tea Party isn’t a rational expression of justice, but that has been the byproduct of their emphatic refusal to not endorse her. We keep hearing about how small the West Chester Tea Party is, yet so many people are concerned about what they say and when they say it as if they are rationalizing to themselves its importance in the community. But I like the Tea Party people quite a lot and know how they work, and they are as far from a hate group as you can get. But I do know they hate one thing I share with them. If hate is the correct expression, which I think it is, we all hate corruption, and this kind of story is dripping wet with just the sort of corruption that has targeted RINOs in the Republican Party, and that is the real essence of this story.

I write many articles, many of which are about religion.  Some of them, the West Chester Tea Party, has spread around their network, which is undoubtedly part of the criticism toward them by these institutionalized groups.  I’ve even specifically addressed the Jewish issue as conspiracy theorists think of it because it’s a natural part of modern politics.  I love the Jewish people and have said so many times.  Jesus was Jewish.  We wouldn’t have a Bible if not for the Jewish people.  I even recently wrote an article about why we should all participate in Jewish rituals such as eating unleavened bread.  Any criticism that was expressed falls under the general failures of institutionalism, which is a much larger issue.  And, of course, those who seek refuge in institutionalism to hide their levels of corruption are at the heart of the matter here, and the perpetrators of injustice are playing a dangerous game that is falling apart in this second decade of this new century.  The political game of controlled free speech.  To censor people based on what they say and do, as if institutionalism could control people’s thoughts through the act of peer acceptance.  This isn’t a new game; it’s an outdated one.  And the 2010s want their political games back.  Because in the increasing MAGA movement where President Trump continues to be the leader of the Republican Party, these games are exactly why there is a severe hatred of RINOs representing people in politics.  That is precisely why the West Chester Tea Party made sure to distance themselves from their long affiliation with Lynda O’Conner once they found out she was running again, because of the many mistakes she has made that they couldn’t endorse. 

We no longer live in a world where people care what the newspapers say or the television media in a city.  This idea of ruling over others with hurt feelings is what created the mess we are in presently, and what has given politics a bad name.  So, any hope that this story would destroy the West Chester Tea Party, by the established RINOs who want their party back, will only blow up in their faces.  The hope was to force anybody to crush free speech to stay within the parameters of institutionalized controls, which is expected of the West Chester Tea Party, to apologize, and condemn members with opinions.  Then, they minimize their message so that the RINO faction of the Republican Party can gain back some respect that they have lost.  Because of these games, the West Chester Tea Party is still around and a vital force that works in the background, especially for Central Committee members.  Party politics is never going back to what it used to be.  People are not happy with it.  And they certainly don’t appreciate being used by political figures to get elected, then to have those elected representatives turn away from the freedom movement, and align themselves with institutionalized politics.  And that is the merit of this entire West Chester Tea Party issue.  They have nothing to apologize for.  I think they will gain members with this news media coverage.  But more than anything, they will gain respect for their position against Lynda O’Conner and other political figures who have turned away from the Tea Party ways and hope to wipe their guilt away as Judas did after taking money to sell out Jesus.  When the responsibility doesn’t go away from the reflection in the mirror, getting rid of the mirror is all too tempting.  But the reflection comes in many forms, not just the bathroom mirror or a news media that is already a poor reflection of actuality.

The Rigged Game of the Neocon: There is no foreign policy if we don’t deal with the World Economic Forum

There is no foreign policy in America that doesn’t deal with the problem of the World Economic Forum and its terrorism worldwide as a government that doesn’t see itself as a government.  Anything that doesn’t deal with the critical problem isn’t serious about foreign policy. This ridiculous idea that America is the beacon of freedom for countries worldwide is a stupid premise by stupid people to serve their purposes ultimately.  America doesn’t need to be involved in a bunch of foreign wars, when it can’t take care of itself, which is the state of our present condition.  This has been coming up a lot lately, especially since Trump has had an America First foreign policy, which Vivek Ramaswamy has adopted in his campaign.  As opposed to Nikki Haley who wants to be involved everywhere, wherever trouble is started, anywhere in the world.  The classic idea is that America is the parent of the world and has to settle matters wherever there is trouble, and those settlements involve tanks and troops, by whatever means necessary.  We are much brighter now than we were in the past, we have grown a lot as a country after a lot of disappointments.  Globalism has not been a wise strategy, and America has been used like a cheap whore by the world for all kinds of nefarious reasons.  But we are not that pre-World War II America who runs around the world like Captain America solving problems that everyone else started, and that is the general belief of the typical neocon, as the term has incorrectly been used for several decades now.  The conservatives believe that it is the task of Americans to be the world’s police officers, while moderates believe we shouldn’t be.  And that to prove your conservative nature, you must accept this premise of all wars everywhere by anybody. 

It would be hard for anybody to claim to be more conservative than me.  But I do not accept the definition of America’s role in foreign wars.  I see a trick that has occurred where our reports for things were given to us by the enemy, the real enemies out there who hide between sentences in history books and are never really discussed, as they should be.  And that is the type of people calling themselves globalists who set up this mess.  In the modern sense, the World Economic Forum has taken over the front for global communism, the preferred economic standard for all their efforts.  It is through banking and finance in general that the greatest threat to the world resides.  It’s not in some puppet tyrant by a small country somewhere yacking on about nuclear weapons, when the real goal is to attack capitalism by taking away the power that fuels it.  It’s all been a shell game, just as nuclear energy has been criticized because it reminds people of nuclear weapons.  The manipulations in our culture come from the real terrorists who have warped our definitions of things to serve their purposes.  Such as the “neocon” terminology.  You can’t be a “real conservative” if you don’t support every foreign war that the World Economic Forum starts around the world.  It’s no different than some stupid kid in grade school telling someone else that they aren’t cool if they don’t have the latest Nike brand of tennis shoes.  But the term itself is worthless and has nothing to do with conservative values because it requires a massive big government to have a global military and support any war efforts.  We have allowed other people, especially the media culture, to define what we are as Americans, and that has been destructive; it has directed our politics essentially down the road of big government centrally managed by ultimate globalists in the World Economic Forum. 

The real threat to the world, especially America, comes through finance, where Marxist-trained professionals have already corrupted everything beyond reason.  And it is the biggest issue on the ballot of 2024, this concept of whether Americans rule themselves or will be the latest victims of globalism.  It was all established years ago by the book Tragedy and Hope and was most obvious in the Rhodes scholarship programs.  Colleges have been oozing this material for years, and the ultimate result is that most people don’t understand the meaning of anything anymore.  Pick the neocon political route in life, like Nikki Haley and Lindsey Graham, and you must expand government and spend infinite amounts of money to meet every challenge wherever they are.  Avoid that path, and you must pay unlimited cash and expand government reach to build an administrative state to keep the Deep State happy and hidden behind layers and layers of red tape that nobody ever sees.  And how could you?  When you are so busy trying to get a building permit for a garage addition, who has time to see what a menace a deep state truly is that releases bioweapons into the public to control population growth, or that some ridiculous concept of “democracy” has been long destroyed with rigged elections that the public never had control of.  While we debate whether we should send money to Ukraine to serve the interests of globalism, we hide the nasty stuff in our own country with ridiculous discussions about “trans rights” during reading hours in public schools with kids.  And that the political left wants to make murder legal, drug abuse a lifestyle choice, and pedophilia a sexually protected right.

But who blows on all these troubles worldwide and is the root cause of so much misery? Well, the World Economic Forum and their friends in finance are the most modern menaces.  They cause all the trouble that requires a big government to fix it, so no matter what you’ve been calling yourself over the years, a conservative or a liberal, the political definitions were created by the enemies of America to achieve their ultimate goal, which is to spend us into oblivion so that we’d be easy to conquer by putting us in debt to those global forces and putting a lot of foreign money into our efforts to protect our global turf.  In doing all that, they gain control of our country and our present condition.  And no issue is more important in the 2024 election than who controls what.  Do Americans control their destiny, or have we so attached ourselves to globalism and, ultimately, the constructs of the World Economic Forum that we have no national sovereignty?  We are at a point in politics where we must redefine all these previous assumptions and recognize the game for what it has been all along and to do that, we must go back to reconstruction after the Civil War.  Everything that happened after has had this globalist problem attached to it, and therefore, our foreign policy assumptions about what that meant.  But our definitions given to us were not our own; the globalists themselves created them for the goals of globalists, and any policy about foreign affairs that we are to have as a country must be directed at the World Economic Forum and its tampering of trouble around the world that always point directly at their door.  If you want to go to war, go to war with them.  Not their puppets.  And then, and only then, we’ll see who the neocons are, and who the liberals are, because the definitions of both will have to be adjusted to reflect reality truly.

What to Know About the Ken Paxton Impeachment Trial: The old power of party politics wants to be in charge again, but it never will

What anybody needs to know about the Ken Paxton impeachment trial in Texas is that he’s a MAGA supporter who has been very influential.  At the outset of the 2020 election, as the Attorney General of Texas Paxton established one of the best cases for election fraud proof, which upset all those RINOs who wanted a clean break with Trump.  So, the old Bush power in Texas put a target on Paxton’s back right away.  And recently, Paxton was going after Google over privacy issues.  So, this trial in Texas, where the House has already impeached him from his position and now the Senate is going through the process of hearing the evidence cast against him, is an old game by the old forces who are clinging to their power from MAGA challenges to their established order.  It reminds me of a case in my county within the Republican Party, where legal warfare is regularly employed to destroy political rivals.  The core of the dispute is to resist the apparent changes that are part of the MAGA movement and the hope that if those challenges are destroyed, everything will snap back into the controls of the old days.  Where the Bush family was in charge, alliances with big companies like Google could occur under the radar, and election fraud could be conducted in the open, and nobody would question it.  It is interesting to watch, especially as RINO Republicans have attempted to shame Paxton with references to an affair he had that was well settled before any of these current issues emerged, which are being used to attack his character.  People see through it that it’s essentially the same type of case thrown at President Trump, and the results will be the same.

The Ken Paxton trial in Texas is an ongoing legal battle that has captured the attention of many across the United States. The problem centers around allegations of securities fraud against the Texas Attorney General, Ken Paxton. The case has been controversial, with many questioning the motives behind the investigation and subsequent charges. At the heart of the matter is the accusation that Ken Paxton committed securities fraud by encouraging investors to buy stock in a technology company without disclosing that he was receiving compensation for the recommendation. The case has been mired in legal battles and delays, with Paxton’s lawyers arguing that the charges should be dismissed due to a lack of evidence. As it is going, the case against Paxton has been weak at best, with the best parts of it involving going to the FBI with no evidence, just accusations. And if there were any merit to the case, the Biden DOJ would have picked it up because they want to take down Paxton for his election case against the federal handling of the 2020 election. But there was nothing there, leaving the entire issue to the flimsy holdovers of the Bush legacy control over Texas. So everything is coming out petty instead of having any good legal standing. As bad as it all is to attempt to impeach an attorney general by his party, over essentially, nothing but to get rid of a member of MAGA in the power politics of Texas, the attempt says far more than any of the evidence does that has been established against Paxton. We have uncovered a monster that we always knew was there but has emerged in the wake of Trump in the White House and the distinct fear that he will return, with people like Paxton gaining power.

I see these fights all over the country, and they are happening in just about every county.  As I have said about my county of Butler County, this is the number one issue challenging everyone.  Many supported Trump during his first term because he was in power then, but they held their nose and couldn’t wait for him to be removed from office, which they cheered for when they thought nobody was looking.  In the wake of one of the most massive crimes in world history, which was the stolen election of 2020, and the Covid release of a bioweapon against the public to allow for cheating to occur, no matter who was harmed in the process, you could see clearly where people were politically.  Many put on masks and surrendered everything to the health administrators, hoping that a superior power, more significant than Trump, would knock him out of office.  These are the same people who, just months before, would gut their mothers for a chance to get a VIP pass to a Trump event and stand next to him for a picture.  I watched all this action with curiosity.  And over the last three years, it has been obvious what they were up to all along: they wanted to go back to the regional powers, such as what the Bush family has over Texas.  And there is always some family like that all over the nation, and they were pleased to snap back into that control in the wake of Trump.  They wanted their power back, so anybody expressing Trump-like opinions now that Biden was in the White House were a target, and everyone expected Trump to be gone forever, in favor of some controlled asset like Ron DeSantis, they bet everything on that future.  And that isn’t what’s happening.

I tried to explain this to many people at our Lincoln Day dinner in Butler County, Ohio, after Ron DeSantis had just come and spoken to everyone.  Many were hoping that DeSantis was going to be the Trump killer.  I told them that Ron was going nowhere, which is precisely what has happened.  I found it surprising that nobody wanted to talk about Trump.  And those who did, and we saw this same kind of radicalism on the Lakota school board, where the former Trump supporters were quick to adjust to this new Biden world as if the former Republican president had never happened.  It was as if some great eraser would come along and put all the people who wanted power back in charge forever.  It was a bizarre exchange.  On that school board, the Lynda O’Conner’s of the world wanted to destroy the Darbi Boddys over essential political philosophy, establishment against MAGA.  And now there is panic in those groups because they have bet everything on the old forces destroying these new rivals.  All the political hits have not beaten their enemies; it has only made them stronger, just like what is happening with Trump.  And, of course, what is happening to Ken Paxton.  The frustration is that Paxton will emerge from this impeachment process with more political power, which is the case with all these traditional attacks.  The old games no longer work; people don’t like the kind of society that we have had with them in charge, such as the Bush family or the DeWine clan in Ohio.  People want better political parties to represent them, not those who make deals with Google to ruin our country, destroy our Constitution, and tell us that we’ll all be better after the compromises.  That them selling us out to foreign interests was to our advantage somehow.  But many have realized that the political parties, especially RINO Republicans, have not been good for us, and we want real change.  And we’re not going to accept sell-outs.  We’ve given them a chance in the past, and we are now forever against their further attempts.  And that they can get rid of Trump, Ken Paxton, or even regionally, Darbi Boddy or Roger Reynolds, and people will still be upset with the lackluster RINOs.  They will never regain their old power, and in the future, they will only be more and more resented.  That is the future of politics; we want more like Ken Paxton and fewer Jeb Bushes.  We want people who represent us, not some ruling-class aristocracy.  And those needs will only increase in the future; we will never go back to the old days that caused all these problems in the first place.

Let’s Talk About God: Understanding the Politics of Heaven

For further conversations, it’s time to talk seriously about God and the politics of Heaven and, in general, everlasting life.  A lot of people think that death is the end of it all, but I would argue that it’s just the beginning, and part of the point of life is to grow into something that can function well in the existence of a multidimensional political universe, because as it is in Heaven, so it is on Earth.  The original sin was that God created man in his image because he wanted a family who would rule on his behalf over the Earth in ways that always had the eternal perspective in mind, and in that way, humanity was created to be over angels and demons relative to the Divine Council as it is talked about in the Bible many places, especially Psalm 82.  This is important because to understand the fight we have today, politically, we have to get our minds around the concept of God and not think of him as a solitary figure sitting on a thrown in everlasting life waiting for everyone to go to Heaven and sit around in the pearly gates to do “something” for the rest of eternity.  We tend to view Heaven as a destination at the end of the tunnel of life.  But I think that’s just where the battles begin, and what we see on earth are reflections of that eternal life, and God, Yahweh, has always been under pressure to manage the vast populations of eternal existence.  And that is why the Fall in the Garden was such a tragic occasion for him, which he has spent many thousands of years trying to resolve to his satisfaction.  That might seem strange for an entity that created the universe and everything in it.  But there is more to the story regarding the challenge of free will that is ultimately the point. 

We all know the story of the Garden of Eden, where the snake tempted Eve to eat from the Tree of Good and Evil.  This is the fruit of the lesser Gods, those in the pantheon at that time, for which Yahweh managed within this universal spectrum but constantly tried to undermine his authority.  Those Gods would be characters who had been around for many tens of thousands of years before the biblical period we are talking about here, gods like Baal, Moloch, Ishtar, Marduk, and a long list of the same names that would be called other names in other countries such as Greece, Egypt, and the Americas, but would be the same essential characters.  Yahweh was trying to do something different, and the rebellion on the Divine Council was certainly intent to challenge his authority, just as we see in our political order, which we can say reflects the actions of eternal life.  Of course, once God’s creation had eaten from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil and become like “them,” the gods of the Divine Council, they had to be cast away for God to try again and again to make the human experiment work by comprehending the aspects of Eternal Life that God intended for humanity.  Not the kind of stuff they teach you in Sunday school or Church.  But if you dig into scripture and read what it tells us from thousands of years of interpretation and analysis, things start to appear much more as they indeed are. In that case, the world opens up much differently for those with the courage to eat from that Tree of Eternal Life. 

Humans couldn’t handle such a task, so they were thrown out of the Garden guarded now by Cherubim, creatures that have a recurring theme in ancient times.  And eventually, because they fell from grace and were now functioning in the politics of the lesser Gods, such as Baal, God wiped them all away with the flood story, which is very much the same story we find in the Epic of Gilgamesh.  Noah and his family are God’s chosen people, and they try to start the Garden story once more.  Only to fail when people attempted to build the Tower of Babel, again setting their sights on the kind of mistakes the Divine Council had made for thousands of years.  God came along and scrambled their speech so they could no longer build the Tower of Babel to reach Heaven.  And Yahweh sent them to the corners of the earth to separate them politically from one another.  But God doesn’t give up on this experiment with humans. Instead, he turns to Abraham and decides to make a new people from his line, which becomes the generations of Israel, Moses, King David, King Solomon, and the like.  But again, once Solomon died, his children fell to the temptations of Baal and the gang, so God allowed Nebuchadnezzar to raid his people and punish them for their discourse, which was their political alignment and worship of the lesser gods of the Divine Council.  Understanding that Divine Council, it helps to read from the ancient literature that comes out of Syria and modern-day Iraq.  No wonder those areas are war-torn today; the conflict is a mask of the truth.  Governments always want to think they are in charge as they completely are creatures eating from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.  From there, after 70 years, God allows the people of Israel to rebuild and continue again, but of course, they fail, so he sends Jesus, his representation on earth, to be sacrificed like just another lamb out of Nazareth to solve the political problem with that Divine Council once and for all.

God’s problem, which is eternal, is how to get people to do the right thing of their own free will.  God could undoubtedly punish them and impose his desires through force.  But the divine experiment and the intentions of God’s purpose, and therefore, the meaning of life, is to create religious partners who can function for what’s right as interpreted by an eternal perspective.  Not to eat from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, the political world of the Divine Council.  But the infinite aspects of all existence, as the universe knows and understands it.  God was looking for reflections of him and his intent to do on Earth as it is in Heaven and to share rule with such creations.  To say God has struggled with the Divine Council might seem odd, but the problem is free will, whether talking about people or angels, demons, and the pantheon of maniacal characters of eternal existence.  Life and death is not the goal of these considerations, but free will is.  And it is free will that is at the core of the American experiment, and it is the suppression of that free will that the world is attempting to stop presently in our political world.  But the root cause of the problem is an ancient one, considering the fall in the garden and why it was so tragic to God.  Because the politics of the Divine Council sought to corrupt the effort from the beginning, those characters would not allow God to create beings superior to them, such as humans were designed to be.  To hatch from life into death as reflections of God himself and to rule over the Divine Council.  And once that is understood, much of the trouble of our current time can be comprehended more fully.

Why I Won’t Support Lynda O’Conner for the Lakota School Board: There is a storm coming and it won’t be pretty

Of course, we are going to have this fight in Butler County, Ohio. It’s happening globally, nationally, statewide, and regionally. Look what Ken Paxten is going through with the Bush political machine in Texas right now. We find the same kind of problem regarding issues on the Lakota school board: populism as opposed to machine politics. The main reason I can’t support Lynda O’Conner for the school board is due to her performance, which has been rooted in machine politics that has stood against the kind of reforms education needs.  She has her role in the nasty storm that is about to hit, and rather than trying to destroy fellow school board member Darbi Boddy personally, she should have been preparing the community for what’s about to happen.  I know many people are getting caught up in the Rs and the Ds, even though school board people are supposed to be nonpartisan.  We know from experience that such a concept is far from the truth.  And based on partisanship, I don’t see any difference between Lynda O’Conner, Julie Shaffer, or Doug Horton.  They all would fit nicely in Kathy Wyenandt’s living room as like-minded Democrats.  Lynda has called herself a conservative, and she has a network that leans in that direction, but her behavior has been more on the side of Kathy Wyenandt’s pro-government school posse of progressive insurgents and far from small government and fiscally conservative values of the GOP.  All the intimidating phone calls, going through people’s garbage, messing with their utilities, or property ownership with useless bureaucracy attempting to show power over the anti-Lynda forces can’t change what she has done.  She has told me what I wanted to hear in the past, yet she has behaved in the opposite direction, and those are not traits that can be endorsed.  She brought us Darbi Boddy, then immediately, as soon as she was sworn in, turned on Darbi in excessively unhealthy ways, not showing good leadership at all.  And now Lakota has a lot of problems looming on the horizon, and because of the time she has been on the board and what she has chosen to do with her time over the last two years, any rational mind would be crazy to endorse her.  I was hoping she wouldn’t run and that she would point her interests in a different direction, such as a trustee position.  But she has done the worst thing possible: running again when strategically it makes no sense, so now we must have a difficult conversation. 

I’ve heard it all before: We must have Republicans on the school board, and these conversations have occurred in name only.  Like some sports player who wears any team’s jersey, they are told to play against, without true loyalty to any team.  The brand damage associated with Lynda will be very damaging in the months and years to come.  I was at an event recently where some very smart political people were talking, and one of these particular people was right about this “perfect storm” that is about to hit.  But we disagree on what role Lynda should play in it as an endorsed candidate of the Republican Party.  I would advise that the GOP doesn’t touch this one with a 50-foot pole and let the Democrats choke on it because the storm is an act of their creation, and Lakota can do nothing to avoid it.  I’m not against the GOP endorsing candidates.  A GOP endorsement is powerful enough to do as it has in the past, but with two more good Republicans on the school board; otherwise, we’ll end up with union stooges.  But for one of those two endorsements to be Lynda is a problem because the candidate might as well be one of the many liberals of Butler County who know they would never otherwise get elected to anything unless they were affiliated with the Republican Party. 

The time to deal with this story would have been over the last few years when Lynda picked a fight with Darbi over, essentially, political power, and now the kicking the can down the road is leading to catastrophic circumstances.  Obviously, it would have been better for Lynda not to be near a school board when these things hit the fan.  But nobody listened, so the brand damage is going to be devastating.  Nobody will be able to say I didn’t warn them.   The best thing to do would be to throw this election to the Democrats.  That doesn’t change any positive support for Russ Loges, who I think will be a great school board member.  Darbi could use help, and Isaac can decide whatever he wants to do.  But a teacher’s contract is coming, and they will want more money.  There is a facilities plan that looks like it will legitimately cost a billion dollars over the next 20 years.  Of course, that is attractive to people in construction, but it’s a vast, expensive commitment to a school system that is changing rapidly with school choice options that will become more dominant soon.  This isn’t something that just occurred; the school board has been discussing this facility plan since Brad Lovell was president of the school board, and Lynda was looking for help dealing with him.  It’s been a long time; meanwhile, Lakota has burned through its surplus and worked up the community toward a tax increase.  The problem is that property value assessments are increasing significantly due to state auditor complications.  So, the amount of taxation from those increased property value assessments will be significant.  Not the environment that makes for a healthy community passing tax increases to support a government school.  Then, of course, the national political challenges with inflation, supply chain issues at the grocery, and general temperament have brought pain to everyday people.  These next few years are going to be rough. 

I would have advised Lynda to ride off into the sunset after 16 years.  Instead of digging in and picking a fight with Darbi Boddy because she didn’t fall under the control of the school board president like other members did in the past.  And now there is a whole political faction within the Republican Party that is very angry at Lynda.  And with all the intimidation techniques employed, it has only dug them in deeper.  And they will continue to make their voices heard.  Instead of working to solve those genuine problems, we have significant fractures that will be very destructive.  Things would have been different if anybody was willing to play a little chess.  The blame for this would be much better placed where it belongs, around the neck of Julie Shaffer or Doug Horton.  But if Lynda is the endorsed candidate, it will likely end up around her neck, which isn’t good for her.  And everyone supporting her will end up with eggs on their faces during a crisis period that will need a lot of leadership.  This happens when you mix political philosophies in the way things have been done at Lakota.  It is far better to have apparent political disagreements and to let the losing side be obvious than to let a GOP member burn at the stake with everyone else.  And that is what kicking the can down the road financially for over twenty years will cost, which won’t be good for anybody.  Lakota is not a quarter of a billion-dollar business with Lynda running it.  It’s instead a quarter of a billion-dollar lottery ticket for the unions that have the power to distribute that pile of money collected by property tax owners that is spent on liberal political issues.  And as all that hits the fan, it would have been best to have distance politically from the destruction that will follow.  That is why I won’t support Lynda O’Conner for the Lakota school board.  I would have supported her for trustee or some other position.  But not for this mess, which occurred on her watch, actions she did not provide the leadership necessary when it was needed most.

The World Economic Forum Stepped Over the Line: Trust is hard to win and easy to lose, and they have lost it

Something significant is happening that is very obvious, but little has been made of it; people are generally waking up to the malicious intentions of Bill Gates and his friends in the World Economic Forum.  People are now looking for the sideshow games where crimes against humanity have been committed, and Klaus Schwab and the economic Marxist terrorists of the world are not prepared for the wrath that is coming their way, which was most evident in the wake of the Maui wildfires.  Well, at this point, we should call it the Maui arson that destroyed a town that had been discussed as a satellite city for the World Economic Forum’s 15-minute cities.  The best way to build one is to destroy the old one, which looks to be the case here.  A few years ago, nobody would have asked any questions.  Conspiracy theorists would have voiced their opinions, but the mainstream media would have poured cold water on them, and the public would have accepted the controlled narrative.  But not any longer, not since Covid ruined the trust of public officials, and now three years of Biden have shocked people into observing the obvious.  The World Economic Forum has gone too far, and the shock to the world has been a degraded impression.  I noticed something similar when Microsoft, run by Bill Gates, released Windows 95, which was not as well received as Windows 3.1.  And ever since, Microsoft has been further scrutinized to the point it is today.  A necessary evil that people generally don’t trust.  Just as they no longer trust Bill Gates.  That is the case with everyone connected to the World Economic Forum.  People are onto the games and now see them being played everywhere, not conspiratorial, but in the logical way the bad guys have always tried to hide from the public. 

I said that the truth about the Maui fires would emerge in the aftermath as we watched what people did.  As it turns out, the power company had been trying to maintain its infrastructure, but the emphasis was on woke policies for renewables, straight from the World Economic Forum’s radical agenda.  And the power company had turned off the power hours before the fire started, so how could a spark from them set off the blaze?  There are a lot of unanswered questions that only point to terrorist activity, not a natural occurrence or an accident from the power company due to infrastructure failure.  I have seen that same radicalism in my state of Ohio regarding FirstEnergy.  On the one hand, they have adopted all these woke rules to appease the climate terrorists, making them the target of a hostile public upset at the changes.  But then the climate terrorists are trying to set up the power companies for complete failure and are looking to drive them out of business.  It’s the classic gun-to-the-head robber who forces someone they are holding up to do what they are told, only to be shot dead after they’ve handed over all their money.  These climate terrorists doing their deeds for the World Economic Forum behind the efforts of the United Nations are playing for keeps, which looks to be the kind of set-up job in Maui.  But the public is aware of the game, and they instantly rejected the official narratives for the fire and went straight for the developers who have promised to rebuild as a “city of tomorrow” as the instigators of so much death and destruction.  If it can happen in Maui, then it could happen everywhere. 

The bad guys in the world have been doing these things for a long time, destroying the planet and rebuilding it in their version of “Build Back Better.”  That kind of terminology was already being stamped on liberal t-shirts before there was a Joe Biden in the White House, but after Covid was a major overstep by Bill Gates and the gang, they didn’t seem to realize that it was a step too far.  And now people have lost trust in the officials that the World Economic Forum has worked so hard to capture.  But now that they have the power, they have lost the public’s faith and don’t seem to understand why.  Their entire plan, just like every version of Windows ever released that was supposed to be better than the first, has consistently failed in some way because they could never quite get it right.  Power is hard; it’s easy to make a misstep, and that is what we are dealing with now.  Climate terrorists were just caught starting fires in Greece to attempt to evoke an environmental message, and now that fires are breaking out all over the world frequently, it’s not a natural occurrence that people expect.  The first thought is climate terrorism by these radical Marxists inspired by the members of the World Economic Forum who plan to profit off the carnage and then build what they want.  There’s one sure way to overcome the kind of city opposition that building a 15-minute city would typically involve.  Just burn it down and kill all the people who would oppose it.  Then blame the power company you are also trying to put out of business because they use fossil fuels in capitalist markets.  That game has been going on for too long, and many people have suffered.

The public outrage is very energetic on social media.  How much of it gets outside the algorithms tightly controlled by the Deep State is an issue for debate.  Typically, discussions against the administrators of the Deep State and the members of the World Economic Forum who have a lot of money that they think buys their governments don’t get outside of the circular firing squad of specific groups that are easily monitored by the powerful forces who think they are in charge.  But the word is getting out anyway, and ordinary people now see the obvious.  They are asking the right questions that are no longer conspiracies but honest observations that have lingered in the background.  People might have been shy about expressing those opinions, but now they are open.  And regarding the Maui fires, there is actual hostility that is well-founded.  People don’t like to be suckered, and they feel suckered.  Bill Gates has shown the same kind of stupidity with his climate change activism that he did with Windows releases.  Everything worked for him as long as he had a monopoly on opinion.  But once people could think for themselves, which started happening with Windows 95, the value of their Microsoft products began to diminish.  People would put up with it to get along, but they weren’t suddenly yearning for the product.  And that same thing has happened to the losers in the World Economic Forum.  They thought people would want what they were selling: globalism, climate change, a godless, overly sexualized heathen society of sweaty losers looking to them as gods.  But, what they have been caught doing was acting as the latest terrorists, no different from the old hippie Weather Underground radicals.  Instead of operating out of the back of a pot-filled, rusting van playing Beatles eight-track tapes, they are billionaires like Bill Gates who have lost their minds, if they ever really had them.

The Busing Strike at Lakota Schools: Hiding the real problems behind drivers who don’t deserve it

I love the new busing strike at Lakota schools. Nothing infuriates me more than slow-moving vehicles clogging up the roadways, and since school has started back for the fall, all the buses hauling kids around to a communist government school in my district that eats money insatiably has been a sore subject for me. I’ve dealt with this busing issue for years; I remember when Lakota cut busing as an extortion method to push parents to pass a tax increase back when we had to fight those levies every few months. And I certainly remember how it was during Covid. Parents learned not to have busing, and as far as I’m concerned, parents can take their kids to school. They’ve done it before; they can do it again. They already get a free babysitting service in the school paid for by the taxpayers, so the least they can do is drive their kids to school. But my favorite school board member, the only one who has been really good on busing issues to make things better for parents, Darbi Boddy, is supportive of busing services and has wanted to expand coverage. See, we don’t agree on everything, just most things. Darbi ultimately is not a professional politician, but she’s in politics the way it’s supposed to be. She’s a mom, and she thinks like a parent. So, she is undoubtedly sympathetic toward school bus drivers as they voted to strike just before Labor Day 2023. And what’s unusual about this strike isn’t about money or benefits. The busing services are contracted out to a company called Petermann, which handles the needs of the drivers, who are well compensated. Instead, the problem is over surveillance, a similar tech issue as is at the core of the Hollywood strike of actors and writers. Technology has turned into a tyrant, and the drivers aren’t happy about it, so they have walked off the job.

Of course, there is more to the story, which is why this is a compelling analysis. Lakota schools want to micromanage the bus drivers in ways they would never dare do with their employees, and because of Petermann handling the union responsibilities, it has given Lakota schools a chance to try and fix their social perception problem with parents during an election year, without having to take responsibility for anything and making members of their radical leftist union upset. Lakota has been very soft on pedophilia over the last several years, following some genuinely detrimental behavior with several past employees that have damaged the public school brand. Followed by some very disappointing report cards from the state and a financial situation where the lawyers are essentially running the school, the current school board, except for Darbi Boddy, has been a complete disaster. So they need a public relations push, and this school bus driver issue has been, for them, a golden opportunity. Suddenly, they want to use technology to monitor if the bus drivers are putting both hands on the steering wheel while turning and if they are staying within the speed limit. The same policy is not present to ensure that Lakota teachers behave themselves. If a kid shoots a spitball at the back of a bus driver’s head, and the driver yells at the kid. The act will be caught on video. But if it happens in a classroom, nobody will ever know. So based on that premise, Lakota management, starting at the school board, is talking out of both sides of its mouth, which is a standard from them, not an exception.

Without question, there are school bus drivers who are cheating slugs. They don’t fill their logbooks out correctly; monitoring will help correct that problem. But the number is likely under 25%. There is no precise justification for abusing the other 75% with overmanagement while the rest of the school culture gets away with horrendous acts of defilement and social degradation. Sure, bus drivers park in places they shouldn’t be to associate with other drivers who shouldn’t be there between pickup tasks. There are many reasons to justify the increased monitoring of the bus-driving staff. But the question is, “Should they do it?” Given the government school culture, the least of the problems are the bus drivers, yet the school board and superintendent want to be harsh with them in just another phony plea to convince parents that management cares about the kids. Parents interact with school bus drivers as representatives of the school more than they do the school itself, as the bus usually comes to their homes personally, where the school is someplace the kids disappear to. This has allowed the school board to appear tough on discipline over employees they don’t even have responsibility for while Lakota’s teacher’s union members get away with everything. If Lakota wanted to be tough on employees, it would have reacted much differently to the many abuses of kids that get reported but are slowly dealt with at the school board to protect the school’s image rather than to make kids a priority. But if a school bus driver goes over the speed limit by driving 40 MPH on a road that’s only 35, even though the rest of the traffic is going 45 MPH, then the push will be to write that driver up for a safety violation. Technology has allowed for this kind of oppressive micromanagement, which is not good.

It’s hard enough to get drivers for a school bus; it’s a part-time job at best that you have to spend your whole day doing, first early in the morning, to pick the kids up. Then, mid-day pre-rush hour traffic takes them home. It’s an idea I don’t think society should have ever started. It should be the responsibility of the parents to take their kids to get an education, wherever it is. Bussing has made it way too easy for parents. In this case, it has been an all too easy target for a school board that has mismanaged its affairs to appear more diligent than they are because the introduction of expanded technology has allowed tyrants to have power over others they should never have. Mainly when the utilization is not applied evenly to all parties involved. The bus drivers are being punished for disciplines that the school board would never apply to the teachers and administrators under their management. The third-party Petermann drivers are an easy target with expendable employees. And if nobody goes to school, the teachers get a more leisurely day, which we saw they were too willing to exploit during COVID-19. Technology isn’t used to improve everything, only to control it for power over innocent people while the real trouble persists elsewhere. The hope is that parents will think Lakota is doing an excellent job with the safety of their children by monitoring speed limits and hand placement during driving while the teachers are trying to convince boys that they are girls and that everyone can use whatever bathroom they want. Meanwhile, the lawyers are using taxpayer money to settle every legal challenge that comes their way, and they are trying to do to Darbi Boddy what the school board is trying to do to the bus drivers: blame them for all the lousy mismanagement of the district, when the real trouble is in their back yard, which many parents will never otherwise see.

Future Debates are Over: Trump is redefining the expectations of politics for the better

It’s an exciting trend, not a surprising one, but certainly telling, and that is debates no longer matter in presidential politics, and as a byproduct of that, money is much less of a factor.  One thing that was grossly obvious in the last Fox News debate was how much things have changed in just a very short period, and if you watched it, or at least some of it as I did, you can see a desperation from the cable news networks to assert a power that they used to have over the process, which they are desperate to hang on to.  Among those under 10% types, there was a consistency to bend allegiance to the media moguls who wanted to set the presidential agenda around consultants and Beltway priorities to keep a globalist narrative on track.  And Trump wisely stepped beyond those controls, leaving essentially the old-world Republicans to battle it out for the bottom in an utterly meaningless debate.  While the discussion was occurring, Trump, of course, did his now famous Tucker Carlson interview, which very quickly gathered up a quarter of a billion views, so the differences in future state politics and the past that have been primarily controlled by consulting firms and media tycoons couldn’t be more obvious.  It’s all about the horse race and the coverage leading up to it for all the parasites who have injected themselves into the process and, over time, taken complete control of the narrative.  But that’s changing now, as it should have long ago.  All presidential politics should be about managing the republic and nothing else.  However, just like in sports, we have turned a game into it, and many people have figured out how to make a living off the coverage of that game. Some have even toyed with the idea that they can run the country if only they force the candidates to stay within the debate framework established by the media. 

One of the big arguments that were made toward Trump joining the Fox News debate was that if the President started a trend of not participating in discussions, then Joe Biden would likely skip doing any arguments in 2024.  Well, I have news for everyone: Joe Biden will never do any more debates.  His handlers will not put him on a stage to talk outside a controlled format.  It’s just not going to happen.  There will be no presidential debates in 2024, which, of course, all the people who make their living covering the horse race of politics find devastating.  But that’s a good thing because all those tag-alongs were useless anyway.  The debates in elections were meant to show people who the candidates were.  But they have evolved into setting the presidential agenda.  Everyone knows who Trump is; he’s the most famous person on Earth.  Nobody is going to learn anything new about Trump after a debate.  The only people who would benefit would be the people hosting the discussion and trying to sell airtime while covering the horse race of politics.  That is essentially all Fox News is and has been for a long time.  They cover the horse race but don’t care much for what horse wins.  They make their money off the event’s coverage, not the actual results in the aftermath.  This kind of culture has led to all the wrong priorities, leading blank-minded candidates to dance to the strings of media owners who then take the business of the republic and form fit it into their business needs. 

During his last term, Trump showed how easy it is to fix many of these issues that consultants have been getting in the way of for a long time, which has hidden itself behind the debate culture of the past.  That’s another reason the media hates Trump; he has exposed this game.  He doesn’t need the money that donors can give, and he doesn’t need the media to make him into a star.  He’s his own person, which infuriates the consultant class.  They can’t make him who he is; he doesn’t need them, which is one of the scariest realities they could have for a lot of people who are parasites in the world–not to be needed, and Trump doesn’t.  It also points out the political change where money is used to buy influence.  Money doesn’t have so much power these days because the game used to be that the media would make a star out of a candidate, and that star would then use that success to raise money, so the money could then be used to buy airtime on the media that created the star, to begin with.  Trump has stepped over that entire process altogether.  It’s all been a shell game that has benefited the wrong people.  The voters have been used to generate the money, but they never get what they want out of politics, leaving everyone perpetually hungry for the next horse race, which Fox News starts covering three years before an election.  It’s been a big scam that does nothing to help solve problems; it only makes money for those who cause all the trouble in the first place, and people are no longer interested.  That may be terrifying to the people who make money off politics, but it’s a changing business, and they’ll have to adapt. 

The Biden people ripped off the scab when they tried to put him in office with a campaign in his basement during Covid.  Trump and Biden had a debate that year, 2020, but they fell short of completing the traditional three that had preceded their terms.  Biden is a primarily handled media caricature kept in power by stolen elections, just as most communist countries stay in control.  Only in America people know better because we do have a free media culture.  And if traditional media doesn’t serve the people, then they will find alternatives, and they have.  And Trump’s campaign in 2024 will completely embrace that new media.  The old media isn’t doing anything useful anyway, so Trump doesn’t need them.  Biden has shown that he doesn’t need them either.  So, there won’t be any presidential debates in 2024.  Fox News hosting these debates is over; nobody cares.  And there will be no return to that type of shell game, rightfully, because money has essentially been taken out of politics.  Money can’t buy support the way it has been sold in the past.  People form opinions about political candidates much differently now, and consultants are finding themselves out of a job they never should have had in the first place.  The future of Trump is to move much faster than the Beltway consultants ever could, and the news will occur at a speed only fast-moving social media can cover.  Newsrooms with editors picking the top three stories of the day are a thing of the past.  The need to know, and quickly, is the wave of tomorrow, and people will form their opinions on their own, not to be shaped by the glitz of media machines and slick ad campaigns.  No, for a change, candidates will be judged by what they do, not what they say, and the future of politics is all about achievement, not manipulation, which is a needed change that we’ve needed for a long time.

I Don’t Like “Rich Men North of Richmond”: Crying about how unfair the world is won’t fix it

At first, I thought the Oliver Anthony song, “Rich Men North of Richmond,” was interesting.  I watched people rally to him in private concerts with great enthusiasm and was impressed that the song communicated to them in ways that good art does.  Great!  But the looters have climbed on over the last few weeks, especially at Fox News, where they thought they had found that populist connection with their audience again when they played it at their 2nd Place Debate for the under 10% presidential candidates.  And Oliver Anthony was featured on Disney-owned Good Morning America, the Joe Rogan Podcast, and many other outlets.  The world is in shock over this song, which I could call the kind of song that might have been featured on The Dukes of Hazzard years ago.  I liked it, but what was all this shock, and what did I think about it?  I like the young man, Oliver Anthony; it was wise for him to turn down several record labels and do his best to keep his music small and private—authentic.  That is, after all, what people like about it, and the moment he loses that, it’s all over.  Authentic is better than financially successful, I would say in most cases.  But as I heard the song a few times, I felt more like Oliver Anthony was just another slack-jawed hippie singing about how unfair the world is, as is typical in any bar on a Friday night as people ten beers into the evening throw darts and shoot pool drowning in cigarette smoke and cheap cologne laced with sweat, complaining about how corrupt Washington D.C. politicians are.  Complaining about how unfair life is does not solve the problem, and Anthony Oliver has made no claims to being a conservative.  He’s much more of a liberal, so, interestingly, many are accusing him of being an icon of the political right.  I would say, far from it. 

I’m a big tent Republican Party kind of guy, and if people who like Anthony Oliver’s music want to join the fun of a President Trump Republican Party, that’s fine with me.  I might look at their politics while we’re all in that big tent and shake my head.  Very few people are alive on earth as conservative as I am, so I am usually disappointed with people’s politics.  There is nothing new there.  But I am also one of the most tolerant of other people’s opinions.  The key to a future Republican Party is that many people are coming to it.  After the Trump mug shot, many from the “hood” are now converting from Democrats to Republicans, and I’ll happily hold the door open for them as they walk by with marijuana smoke streaming from their mouths, which I find objectionable.  But this is about winning, not so much converting everyone to my version of conservative politics.  There are union members who love Trump, and suddenly, we are all rooting for the same political figure, which is weird.  But it comes with a big tent.  If everyone wants to go camping and talk over the weekend, likely at the end of it, I will convert people over to my way of thinking, so I’m not worried about values.  But first, the right people must be elected to have the debate.  The Republic must survive as something we can all agree on.  So, I welcome all the drunks from the Friday night beer binge as they play Oliver Anthony turned up on their car stereos while driving around with the windows down. 

I’m not with Glenn on this. Don’t be weak in the first place. Life works much better.

The problem with Democrats, or people heading in that direction, is that they are typically victims in life, and victimization is dripping off that “Rich Men North of Richmond” song.  Republicans are can-doers, typically, Democrats are can’t be dones, so they seek the power of government to do what they can’t do for themselves.  So, from the outset, the two sides aren’t even functioning from the same planet, and if we want peace, everyone must at least want to achieve the same things.  And what’s going on with the Oliver Anthony song and the people drawn to it is that it correctly identifies why people feel like victims.  But I would say they don’t need to be victims because they have everything in their power not to be.  The American Constitution limits government power so people don’t have to be victims.  The Rich Men North of Richmond became that way because there were too many people at the bar on Friday drinking too much when they should have been paying attention to what was happening in the world.  The rich, powerful men in Washington became that way, not because they were the best or brightest.  But because, they were the most unethical and willing to take advantage of people who were too lazy to manage their own lives.  So, singing about it or drinking about it doesn’t solve a thing.  And the sad thing about that song is that so many people can identify with it.  They can relate because the music does speak to them.  But in a healthy society, it shouldn’t.  The song’s existence as a work of art is great because it gives us some measure of culture.  But the reality of that culture is pretty pathetic and passive.  It’s not the kind of stuff that inspires greatness. 

I’ve expressed my comments about this song to several people who have instantly taken offense to my opinions, something about me not having compassion for the “down and out,” whatever that means.  For people who have known me for a long time, they know what I’ve been through in life.  It was never an easy road, and I have lost everything many times over.  But there has never been one day where I have not woken up to make that day better than the day before.  I know pain, deep pain.  It’s much worse pain than Oliver Anthony is singing about—life-crushing pain.  But I’ve never felt the way about it as he does, to cry about how unfair it is.  I’ve always been a turn-lemons-to-lemonade person, a positive thinker who can turn even the fires of hell into drinkable ice water.  I’d love more songs like that.  If there were, then we could say those are the ballads of the Republican Party.  But this “Rich Man North of Richmond” is just more people complaining about how unfair the world is without having the courage to do anything about it themselves.  And that’s what makes a great nation.  Not a bunch of crybabies.  But people who can deal with the pain and make something good happen.  I can’t identify with what Oliver Anthony is singing about because I’ve never felt that way.  Not because it’s been an easy life but because I’m not wired that way.  And rather than yield to those emotions, I would say not to cry, don’t drink your problems away on a Friday night listening to that song.  Instead of being sad, read a book, do something constructive, and continually work to improve yourself and the world around you.  And I think the result will be impressive and something you can feel good about.  Complaining does not help.  And Oliver Anthony’s song is all about complaining when everyone should be getting to work to make the world a better place, starting with themselves.

Decoupling from China: Global communism was always only a drug-induced teenage fantasy

It wasn’t that long ago that I told the story about my LinkedIn account, which I no longer have because of an interview about decoupling from China once I released my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business.  LinkedIn is a bunch of communist China-supporting advocates on the wrong side of history, so I don’t miss them at all, and that’s a topic all its own.  However, the fear of China taking over America is on many people’s minds, and I have assured people that such a possibility is unrealistic.  Even as much as the set-up goes back for many decades by domestic enemies in America who propped up China to become that device for a one-world government run by communism.  Now that people realize that was always the strategy, there is a lot of talk about decoupling the American economy from China.  And now that the cat is out of the bag, there are a lot of lost globalists out there who have no idea what to do next because their entire lives have been planned around this China model taking over the world and collapsing the American market.  People like Larry Fink and Ray Dalio have been moving a lot of money in that direction, and Wall Street has been betting on it for decades, significantly impacting people’s private 401K plans.  But I cover in my book how easy it is for America to defeat any enemy, or any individual can defeat global thugs like gunfighters defeated lots of nasty bad guys in a dusty street for personal preservation and the perpetuation of law and order for a thriving civilization to flourish.  As we speak, the China model is dying, propped up by phony economic numbers and corporations terrified the public will figure out what a lousy bet China has been for them.  So far, the media culture has prevented that knowledge from getting out, but reality is spectacularly showing itself. 

It all goes back to that dumb John Lenin song, “Imagine,” and the high school days of many of the characters causing so much communist trouble today.  It’s not hard to reflect on the young antics of Larry Fink way before BlackRock was created for him by the Federal Reserve looking to dump a bunch of phony money in the market to start a chain reaction toward a collapse and to prop up the China model of global communism.  These current billionaires, like Ray Dalio, smoke dope in the backseat of a car and listen to classic rock and roll songs in favor of communism and how dead America was, such as America Pie.  “They drove their Chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry.”  Once they got out of college, many drunken binges later, they were ready to cheerlead America’s destruction while at the same time calling it “smart investments.”  But their minds were never right and always filled with ill intent from their ideological teenage days where their lifelong philosophies of destruction and American hating sentiment solidified as they learned to take off the bra of the next pimple-faced girl in their back seats masked by marijuana smoke.  I could even go back even further as to how those songs, teenage customs of rebellion, and what those young people learned in school were given to them directly by the KGB as their parents watched old westerns on television at home and couldn’t see the bad guys riding into town.  They were looking for people on a black horse in a black hat.  Not a bunch of communists hidden behind popular culture dressed like the Beatles. 

None of this happened quickly, but it is coming apart very fast.  Now that the globalists are in prime time and have been caught on COVID-19 and many other horrendous enterprises, the world economy has been turning away from tyranny for several years, and that decoupling effort is well underway.  And I would offer that trust in China as a global partner is never coming back.  All the corporations that have invested in this merger with globalism are left at the altar as the timid Chinese are losing power by the day.  Their entire strategy depended on secrecy and intimidation, and that has not been the American public’s reaction, suddenly all too aware of the threat.  President Trump certainly wasn’t the cause; he was the effect of this awareness.  And after his previous term, the mask of China has been ripped off, and all those previous business efforts are failing.  Doing business with China has a stigma that was never there previously, and they will never be able to repair that impression now that people have it.  China and the global communists who have infiltrated American politics never had a plan B.  And as scary as it is to hear that China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Brazil are all moving away from a dollar-controlled currency, the sentiment in America, where most of the world’s productivity is centered, is to pull back and internalize, not to partner with hostile communist countries leaving them very vulnerable as a result.  That is why decoupling from China is something most Americans now want to do, meaning all those investments toward China becoming the next dominating centralized government are disintegrating in front of their faces.  So many American billionaires have spent money in that direction, yet the scam is coming apart rapidly.

It won’t happen overnight, but the trend will be anti-China for many future decades until the communist government there, and in other places, is defeated.  Not just cosmetically but economically.  China has difficulty concealing that information from the world, and their state-controlled media has helped them.  But the writing is literally on the wall, so all these corporate alliances where globalism controlled by China was utilized are already considered busted investments.   And if you lose a lot of money because of it, don’t say you weren’t warned.  I warned everyone for several decades now, and just because the Chinese-loving LinkedIn people have essentially employed a strategy of “keep away,” the reality was eventually going to catch up to them.  The teenage fantasies that many of these modern-day losers have been trying to fulfill were never originally ideas built on the hopes and dreams of human ambition but on the backs of the compromised, drunken fools and overly sexed counter-culture druggies who bought the KGB message hook line and sinker only to find themselves dinner of the globalist communist effort.  And they have been slow cooking for several decades now, thinking they were the ones doing the cooking.  But actually, they were the ones being cooked, and now it’s time to eat.  And Americans, those who haven’t become domestic enemies in support of global communism, are the ones at the table with hungry stomachs.   And corporate America, which has fallen for this scam, is on the wrong side of history.  None of what happens next is what anybody thought would happen.  Of course, I’ve been saying it, and those who listened will prosper greatly.  But most didn’t, and the tough times will be their own.  They were warned but didn’t listen because they thought all that rebellious music and drug use they did as teenagers was the wave of the future, instead of the communist propaganda that it was all along.
