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

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

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

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

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

It’s Great That Trump Surrounds Himself with Rich People: The scoreboard matters

There continues to be a lot of discussion about all the wealthy people who are around Trump in the White House, and to express that condition as if it were a bad thing.  Those criticisms are mainly coming from communist Democrats like Bernie Sanders, who have openly embraced the philosophies of Karl Marx and are inherently un-American.  I love that so many wealthy people associate with President Trump because it shows that successful people are around him.  How do you know they are successful, because they are wealthy?  Wealth is a measure of success.   It’s the scoreboard of life.  When people say you can’t take your wealth with you, why try? You are hearing a loser’s point of view, where someone wants to erase the scoreboard and use other value judgments that don’t make them look so lazy and dumb.  Wealth is a measure of success.  It’s not the only measure, but if a person has built independent wealth, the chances are that they have been very successful in life.  So when wealthy people surround Trump, it shows that he is surrounded by people who know what they are doing, and that’s a good thing.  I like and trust wealthy people because the scoreboard shows they know what they are doing, which is why a society of wealthy people is good.  Critics of this system tend to be losers trying to justify bad decisions they have made in life with some social condition that hides their incompetence.  So they hate the wealthy and disparage the wealthy as some immoral embodiment of social erosion, instead of representatives of the best that a person can be by being a winner at life.  Wealth lets people know of those victories with measures that truly matter. 

That’s not to say that all wealthy people are good, but it does give a measure to put next to the value of a person.  Someone like Nancy Pelosi, who has gained a lot of wealth off government information with insider knowledge of the markets, is not the same.  Some people cheat in life to get wealth.  But even in that condition, you learn much about the people involved based on how they play the game.  Because the scoreboard matters.  The pressure to put points on the board makes people do all kinds of things to show a winning score.  However, the pressure to play the game was what Karl Marx was trying to build a society to avoid.  Even in a biblical context, when wealth is discussed, the writers who have spent their lives writing and thinking philosophically about things tended not to have very much money, so there is always a little jealousy when they look at the scoreboard and see that they haven’t put up many points of their own.  To get through life and say it’s not whether you win or lose at life, but how you play the game, is to try to substitute the game with another value system that embraces other ways of showing success at life.  I see great morality in wealth earned because it forces people to compete and win at life, which shows that they did something of great value somewhere along the line.  And if you want to hire the best person for the job, how else do you determine their value?  If you are building a new driveway and you quote the job to two different contractors and one shows up in a barely running pickup truck looking like they just rolled out of bed, and the other shows up in a brand new dual wheeled truck with a nice paint job and advertising painted on the door, who do you think will do a better job?

While it’s true that the contractor with the beat-up truck might be a diamond in the rough, generally speaking, if people have been successful in life, they tend to show it in their social interactions.  If you go to a fancy restaurant on a Friday night and a man smelling like expensive cologne gets out of a bright red supercar, with a date that looks like she just climbed off the cover of a fashion magazine, what do you think about him?  He’s successful at something because he has acquired assets that society would consider the best of what can be gained in life from the perspective of living.  Can you take all that with you into the afterlife?  No, just like people forget the score of a football game they watched on Sunday, by Monday.  But that doesn’t mean that the players shouldn’t try hard to play and win the game.  To say the game isn’t worth playing because the score doesn’t matter is a loser position in life, and lazy.  And to be envious of the person who has a lot of wealth because they won at life a lot is petty, and a bad foundation for measuring the value of life.  Wealth is a good thing, and it’s better in life to win and to have a scoreboard that shows it than a value system that avoids the competition altogether.  Those like Bernie Sanders, and other socialists, communists, and Marxists from the Democrat party want to get rid of the scoreboards in life so that there is no measure of how much of a loser they are.  They aren’t looking to help people experiencing poverty, but to exploit them so that they don’t look so bad themselves. 

The reason Trump is getting respect around the world, especially during this Saudi Arabian visit, is that the world likes scoreboards, and America has been for them that guy getting out of the fancy car at valet parking with the hot chick on his arm smelling good for a night on the town.  And everyone else has fallen into a measurement system of a loser mentality.  They disparage wealth because they are too lazy to play the game to win themselves.  Most of us root for our favorite sports teams when they play, and when they win, we feel good.  When they lose, we get upset about it.  And the difference between those two things is the scoreboard.  We might like the players, but if they can’t win the game as measured by the scoreboard, they can’t be considered outstanding players in that sport.  The scoreboard matters, it matters in life, and in death.  The wins and losses a person has tell others they should listen to you.  How else would one generation know to listen to a previous one?  It all comes down to the scoreboard and what people do to win or lose.  Even if they cheat to win, it shows the world what they are, which is much better than saying that the scoreboard doesn’t even matter, which is the Marxist proposal.  When it comes to the Trump White House, which I just recently visited, it is good to see the displays of wealth around President Trump.  And it shows in the wins we are now getting out of the Executive Branch.  And losers like those in the Democrat Party don’t get to hide their detrimental status from the world with social criticism of a system, so they don’t look like the fools they are.  We must see it for ourselves and measure its value to the world. 

With all that said I know a lot of people who have made a lot of money by being boot lickers, con artists, and general social lowlifes who have traded their very souls to have a full wallet.  Just as in sports, our favorite teams don’t always win.  Sometimes the refs rig the game, people cheat, or luck doesn’t point in the direction of success.  Even among the very rich, most of them have not been entirely ethical along the way.  But the game itself evolves the value, and that value has great worth in its own context, one win at a time.  And it is in the pursuit of victory that life improves for everyone, and the drama of competition brings out the truth in people that would otherwise not be seen.  And behind all the merits of wealth building, there is a desire for quality, whether it’s fake or genuine, that forces a value judgement where values are very much in need of definition.  And the world is a lot better off with those judgments.

The United Nations is Going Bankrupt: They never should have been created

I’m thrilled to hear it.  I used to go to meetings with my congressional representative, John Boehner, where he would do meet-and-greets, before he was Speaker of the House in 2010, and ask him to get the United States out of the United Nations.  Most of the time, he wasn’t there, but had assistants who would take notes for him, but they’d giggle about the crazy right-wing lunatic who they were embarrassed to have as a neighbor.  But I was serious.  I didn’t see anything good coming out of the United Nations.  Americans never wanted to be in the United Nations, even though President Woodrow Wilson wanted America to lead the League of Nations.  Americans finally caved after World War II because nobody wanted to see another Hitler in the world, so we ended up with the ridiculous United Nations, and things have gone downhill for America since then.  Americans want to be left alone and free from world problems.  But we have all these nosey politicians who like to drink tea with their pinky out, and sip wine of specific vintages, and they want to be respected by Europeans, so they have been trying to drag America into a marriage with the rest of the world for generations.  I would even argue that if not for sinister forces working in the background, we would never have had any World Wars, so it can be argued that the wars themselves were constructs meant to create a global government.  Not to prevent hostile characters that might plunge the world into war.  Hitler was a creation of a lot of bad people.  And the United Nations was never the solution. Instead, the solution to many of the world’s evils was more Bible reading and independence from the world’s villains. 

But finally, we have a President who gets it, and a political class that can at least understand what that President is up to and why.  People aren’t laughing when they say they want to be separated from the United Nations like it used to be.  Living in Liberty Township, Ohio, specifically Butler County, I think about the United Nations whenever I see a roundabout.  Most people don’t know it, but many of the sustainable living implements introduced socially have come from the United Nations Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030 flowdown plans, and our colleges accepted these communist traps hook, line, and sinker for years.  When our township politicians hired people out of these colleges as community developers they brought Agenda 21 sustainable living priorities with them and we ended up with a bunch of sidewalks and roundabouts to adopt more European ideas of community building and environmental impact with the ultimate goal of keeping people in their homes more and driving cars less.  And the whole thing has made me sick every time I go through a roundabout, which are almost as common in Butler County, Ohio, these days as they are in socialist run Europe.  People argue about their worth; they say they are better at keeping cars moving, and they prevent accidents, which make insurance companies happy, who lobby politicians for ways to make society safer so that people will buy insurance but not have accidents to force payouts.  So for all the tyrannical micromanagers out there, Agenda 21 would make them a lot of money, but the goal was to limit freedoms so that stuffy bureaucrats could have an easy time at managing society with a growing centralized government and encourage through policy fewer people to leave their homes, but rather to take a sidewalk everywhere, and to ride bicycles instead of cars.  The roundabouts keep you moving, but also slow you down to go around those stupid circles.  I like long straightaways that we used to have in America, where you could go fast, and even quicker if you could beat the yellow light at an intersection.  Sure, there were more accidents, but life in general was better. 

And never forget that COVID was the ultimate creation of the United Nations to implement their Agenda 21 projects and to set the world on the same page with 2030 priorities.  And yes, COVID was a created virus meant to kill people to force acceptance of these ridiculous stay-at-home policies and conformity to centralized government rules.  If people didn’t die, nobody would listen to an overstuffed government, so through the World Health Organization, a division of the United Nations, a virus was created that would set the world on a Great Reset, much of which still hasn’t recovered.  COVID was planned and implemented using the Chinese system.  The virus was leaked out of a lab in China under very nefarious circumstances.  And immediately, the United Nations had the world on lockdown, micromanaging the economy globally, including America, and they thought that people would fall in line better than they did.  Instead, we had significant pushback and a world angry at the policies of the United Nations, and now we have a President willing to push back against them.  And to cut the money confiscated from Americans and redistribute it to the United Nations, to work against the nature of Americans themselves. Finally, we have politicians willing to stand up to that global tyranny and not play the game, which is great. 

What’s better is the recent report that the United Nations is running out of money because, without the United States, that motley band of socialists, communists, and Marxists has no money.  They can only loot cash from the only capitalist country in the world, America, to sustain themselves.  And now, because we elected Trump, they have essentially been cut off.  And it couldn’t have happened to a nicer group of people.  So I’m pretty happy about their trajectory toward financial ruin.  I have never liked the United Nations.  I have never liked politicians who support them and wanted to join them.  And I would say that without their desire to be created in the first place, we never would have had a World War.  Those wars were created as a reaction to the globalist push that followed the Jekyll Island meetings that started the Federal Reserve, and if you trace all the money and influence to their sources, you will find that it all goes to centralized monetary policy, especially the banks of Europe.  So, there was never anything good about any of this, and what upset them the most was that even after all this time, they never found a way to get Americans to comply with the United Nations willingly.  Sure, we built some roundabouts and sidewalks.  However, people have never embraced the United Nations’ globalist priorities.  Instead, we elected people like President Trump to say no to the United Nations.  And now they struggle to survive because they have nothing without American money.  Because they are rotten, stinking, Marxist countries with bad leadership and horrible economic policies.  And micromanagers without a clue.  But they can name a wine from France in a dinner conversation.  And they will drink it with their pinky out.  I would say that the United Nations types and their supporters are worthless people in life, and I am glad to see them finally rejected for the losers they have always been.  And the more miserable they are, the happier I am.

The Future CEO: They won’t come from the Linkedln losers

When I was in college, I majored in economics and philosophy, and it was apparent even then that a significant shortage was headed our way: a CEO shortage of strong, viable leadership.  And that the attack on our culture that was creating that shortage was purposeful and malicious.  And now we see it everywhere, from failed companies ranging from everything, whether we are talking about the collapse of the Frisch’s restaurant chain, Tupperware, or the Hollywood movie industry.  In every form of business, we see a class of CEOs who were taught weak politics, put in place over those reasons alone, and have choked off and killed huge portions of business sector economies.  I used to warn everyone back then, and people would laugh and giggle and call me a conspiracy theorist for what I was saying.  But as it turned out, everything was true.  We are not making Jack Welch-type CEOs anymore; clearly, people are yearning for it, which is one of the reasons why President Trump was elected back into the White House.  People don’t like the lack of leadership in the world, or what has happened to their businesses.  But if you talk to company heads from top to bottom worldwide, especially in the United States, you find these trained monkeys who don’t know what they are doing and couldn’t lead an ant colony to a breadbasket at a picnic.  Reflecting on my college days, they were only teaching Marxism as an economic viability which I thought was ridiculous and it didn’t take much to figure out that an entire generation learning that kind of garbage was of course going to be crippled in their adult lives, which is precisely the case we are seeing now.  The biggest challenge in the modern age is not returning our economy to our hands, which is occurring rapidly under Trump’s policies.  The shortage of leadership is coming out of the CEO class now, who aren’t prepared to lead companies into healthy sustainability.

Another thing that I am very critical of, just as I was of the college teaching methods, is the new trend of LinkedIn, the professional networking site.  There is a lot wrong with it, which was designed to pull leadership-oriented professionals toward a social score of acceptance that is very China-like.  It’s more about uniformity than exceptionalism, and the deficiency is certainly showing up in our culture today.  We can bring back our jobs from the impact of globalism, but can we put CEOs in place to run those companies in time to run them?  I have a lot of faith in the adaptability of human beings, especially when they are under pressure.  And I would say that we can.  However, the current recruitment method and implementation of a leadership culture, as seen on LinkedIn, is not where the future is.  Consensus building with other losers hiding behind professional titles will be smoked out quickly under the scrutiny of marketplace competition.  And companies that have gone down that road are finding themselves lacking, which is evident in the failures of so many companies these days, who followed the rules of the Obama administration and found themselves closed and bankrupt, which was always part of the plan.  Who needs an army to attack an enemy country when you can train a generation of leadership to lead their economy down the drain?  It could be argued that many of the failures we are seeing from older companies are because they are at the end of their business cycle, and new opportunities are squeezing out the old-fashioned companies with tired brand recognition.  But I would say it’s more than that.

I used to get a lot of flak for my interest in philosophy, even when majoring in it, from the same type of losers today who think LinkedIn is their key to networking salvation.  But I will say now what I said then: what you think matters, and why you think it.  Not following the orders of what some professor committed to Keynesian economics and Marxist social diatribes tells you will be important when it wasn’t going to be.  Probably the best thing I have ever done was spend those college years reading so much philosophy independently, without being told to do so by anybody.   And if more people had prepared themselves independently of the established institutionalism, they’d be better prepared for this significant change in leadership necessity, now.  And I am enjoying a certain satisfaction now because of all the criticism I endured.  The world will find a way for sure.  But it won’t come from those most trained to do it.  The market rejects bad CEOs in favor of innovation, hard work, and merit. It is not the LinkedIn values of a fancy profile picture and a padded resume that looks and sounds impressive, but it is essentially representative of a trained failure made that way by institutionalism to hit the market as a failure and bring down our entire society.  When what you learn philosophically leads to ruin, don’t be surprised when bad leaders ruin companies.  As I say that, I’m thinking of Bob Iger at Disney, who has pretty much ruined that company with bad social philosophy and a reckless assumption that the power of the company would always remain, and would never feel the effects of competition.

The world’s future leaders will not come from institutionalism; they will come from the pressure cooker of life.  Those who have survived the pitfalls of globalism with their take will be the most viable to adapt to these rapidly changing economic standards.  The marketplace will find leaders to run all these new companies.  But it won’t be by the old networking ways, but in the philosophy of success that is at the foundation of all endeavors.  Process fulfillment can’t allow group consensus to hide Marxism in the shadows, which is what has been happening.  It can’t allow the losers of LinkedIn to pad a resume and say some fancy things here and there without actually leading people to victory.  No, in a competitive environment, good leadership will be driven by a proper philosophy of success that wins the day.  Not the CEO who wanted to check all the DEI boxes and led their companies to ruin following it, as Bob Iger did at Disney, and many other huge companies suddenly struggling to maintain their markets.  The brownnoser, the boot licker, the social appeaser will not find a world conducive to their back-footed strategy.  Only the strong and wise will adapt to this rapidly changing market.  There will be a lot of failures, but those who do succeed are those who weren’t taught by institutionalism to fail, purposely.  But those who didn’t listen.  And as I look around, I am happy that I never did.  It’s easy to criticize now with hindsight being what it is.  I feel a little sorry for those who thought they had a handle on all this, because the suffering is hard on them.  But that’s how the ball bounces in a wild and woolly world.  Competition will root out the bad.  Marxism can’t hide them from the world as they have been doing.  But we will be far better off for it.

The Attack on Ohio’s Energy Grid: The Lawfare that put Householder in jail was an assult, not justice

To remind everyone, Larry Householder, the former Speaker of the Ohio House of Representatives, is serving a jail term of 20 years.  And knowing now what I said then, the case was purely about politics and nothing about justice.  The same courts that have been trying to put Trump in jail are what’s at work here.  When you are in the Speaker position and you have to raise money for your party, what are you supposed to do when a company that supplies power to the energy grid in the form of two nuclear power plants in northern Ohio are being pushed out of business by that same government, the case from top to bottom was as dirty as it gets.  And it wasn’t Householder who was the dirty dealer.  The entire FirstEnergy case is about Democrats who were jealous of the power Republicans have in Columbus, and they used lawfare to attempt to break up that control and wrestle power back in their favor.  And they targeted Householder because he was trying to save an energy company that was targeted by the Obama administration for destruction as a progressive war against energy, which we saw during the Biden administration was purposeful and malicious.  Democrats and progressives wanted to reduce the power grid away from its known levels and shove everyone into solar and wind without having any real means to supply the demand that consumers needed.  Instead, the plan was to reduce the supply and force people to cut back on their needs.  The federal government targeted FirstEnergy to go out of business so that the Ohio power grid could not sustain the needs of consumers, and that was always the real story.  I wouldn’t call what Householder was doing to try to save the company bribery, a kind of pay-to-play scheme, politics.  The real problem was the attack on Ohio’s energy grid, which was the real menace in the story.

That’s not to say that Larry Householder and others in the Republican Party were squeaky clean.  There is a way to handle a situation like that correctly, and they did not handle the pressure or the temptations well.  Calling Householder a mob boss as if he were Al Capone or some other mobster is disingenuous, and only reflects that Democrats don’t have similar personality types in their party that can take control in Columbus.  However, when it comes to Republicans, taking Householder off the map only allowed other characters to fill the void, and that’s not a bad thing.  When we elect these people, we expect to get things done, and we expect the party we elect into power to keep that power, and sometimes the game can get messy.  But we want our people to win the game by whatever means necessary.  Where the line gets crossed is when you start accepting gifts and vacations, even if well-intentioned.  For people like Householder, the power can go to their heads, and they can get lost in the process.  But the forced lapse in judgment wasn’t caused by some power-hungry maniac as much as it came from a desperate power company under attack by the government itself, seeking help from the Republican Party to stay viable.  It wasn’t mismanagement that was causing FirstEnergy to go out of business and need a bailout, it was the purposeful government rules and regulations that were intent to destroy them so that all people would be forced to turn away from their power needs and manage a shortfall, just like what California has seen with its brownouts and the push to force them to run their air conditioners less in the summer, and make concessions to their power consumption.  The attack on the American energy grid is the real story and is what is hiding behind the optics of throwing the Speaker in Ohio in jail over pure politics.

This is a war by radical communists disguising themselves as “progressives” attempting to torpedo the American economy with regulatory policy meant to destroy our energy infrastructure, and it’s no different than if planes from China had attacked our homes with a bombing campaign.  If you trace the money in the way that the federal case against Householder was conducted, you would see George Soros’s money funneling into the Ohio Democrat Party by all kinds of back-door means, and many hostile agents against America like him.  Many of the Democrats who were crying foul in the Householder case, hoping to gain political power in the vacuum of leadership during the trial, are doing the business of countries hostile to America and seeking its destruction.  When you are against the American power grid and trying to make the intent to destroy it with a feel-good environmental concern, you are doing far worse than what the Speaker was accused of.  But the complicit media played along, hung a politician they didn’t like who was a leader in a party they wanted out of power, and they used the levers of corruption of our court system to perform the task of putting someone in jail to hide their complicity in destroying the power grid of Ohio.  I hear it every time I go to Columbus, where attorneys and lawyers brag about their role in implementing solar farms, such as the one outside Chillicothe, Ohio.  And strong-arming companies into EPA compliance that could come straight out of the Karl Marx playbook. No, the real bad guys didn’t go to jail.  They jailed the people standing in their way. 

While all this was going on with Householder, the same federal court system was trying to put Trump in jail. It was destroying Rudy Giuliani’s law practice for defending Trump.  And the now-famous mug shot of Trump was broadcast around the world as the real threats to America were showing their control over our court system.  So, Householder going to jail is nothing short of an exhibition of that abuse of power.  It is tough to stay completely clean in anything when so much money is involved, and you have to give Trump credit for running about as clean a ship as anybody in his position could, because nothing stuck to him.  But if he had not won the presidency again in 2024, he would have had similar charges thrown at him as Householder saw.  And Trump would have been sentenced to not just 20 years, but over 100.   And Big Tish James would be free of any scandals of her own, which she is now wonderfully drowning in.  It’s not enough to say that they are all dirty and that corruption should be cleaned up.  The real game is that the federal government thinks it can pick winners and losers, and it picked FirstEnergy to be a loser because they were trying to supply power to a state in need.  And the government run by Obama, then by Biden, wanted to destroy that power supply to force people closer to a zero-emission world with untested clean energy they knew wasn’t ready to replace the state’s energy needs.  And they used political power through the courts they control to remove their political opponents from the battlefield, and to put them in jail to warn others away from standing in front of them.  That’s the truth about Larry Householder’s case.  And not enough people defended him when they should have, because the next victim could be anybody.

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

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

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

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

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

The Jesse Watters DOGE Interview: A change that will last

It was an excellent interview with Jesse Watters, DOGE, and Elon Musk.  I think we are seeing something here that will stick around, and I couldn’t be happier, reflecting over the years to the early part of the Tea Party movement, when fiscal responsibility was our main concern.  It seemed inconceivable at the time that something like a DOGE would ever happen.  But here we are in 2025 having serious discussions about the massive government waste that taxpayers are funding, and it’s not just a campaign issue that comes up every four years.  As Elon Musk has set it up, DOGE has emerged as something that can stick around long after he’s gone, which is what good CEOs do for their companies: you set the table and make it so that you build a culture that can run on its own.  And I’m sure Elon Musk will stick around and be a figurehead of DOGE for a long time.  But what he has created and what the members are doing will last and become a part of government oversight that will last even as the political tides might change.  The Jesse Watters interview captured well what DOGE really is, which I’m sure they had no idea it would be.  One thing that was certainly obvious was that the people doing DOGE are brilliant and well-intentioned, and what Elon Musk has done as the head of the effort is set a standard that can now cascade into a culture of scrutiny that should have been present from the beginning.  Whenever you have money involved, there will be people looking to exploit the system so they can steal some of it.  And when you have a government this big and powerful, that can confiscate so much wealth from people, abuse was a certainty.  But to what extent can people only imagine, until now?

I don’t think Elon Musk needs to be there every day to run DOGE.  It’s nice that he is still doing it even as the government’s activism against him has sought to ruin his car company, Tesla.  Elon Musk might be the wealthiest person in the world, but this commitment to DOGE has cost him dearly.  And I think from here on out, all that needs to be done is to empower people like the current DOGE members into doing the work and to let it take on a life of its own.  What they ended up with differs from what they set out to do in saving trillions of dollars off the top of the budget.  Most of the savings they have extracted aren’t the obvious things like entitlement payments and program-driven budgets, but the day-to-day abuses that get hidden behind all the chaos.  Most of the savings coming from DOGE are in saved opportunity cost, which is usually very hard to measure.  Elon Musk’s way of thinking when running his other companies was just what was needed.  The government has required this oversight since it started collecting taxes, and what Elon Musk has done in this very short time deserves great recognition and gratitude because he could have done what most everyone does, and just ignored the problem.  When you are as wealthy as he is, he could have easily turned his back on the issue and moved offshore to live a fun life.  But to sink his teeth into this project took guts, and because of it, we’ll be talking about DOGE, I think, permanently. 

People can’t be trusted to do the right things on their own, and one thing that came out of the DOGE interview on Fox News was how many people have been abusing the system dramatically.  I saw much of this firsthand when my wife and I traveled to Washington, D.C. for an extended period and lived in Fairfax County to see how most of those communities entirely existed off the waste scraped off the top of government.  Many of the programs that have so much waste in them were created with the best of intentions, but when you involve people who are always looking for the easiest way to do things, a scandal is bound to happen, and many people are professional con artists, even to themselves.  They can look in the mirror and even lie to what looks back and feel okay with it.  Those are the kind of people drawn to government work, and the many spoils come from a largely unregulated system.  The stories of abuse that DOGE is telling are just the tip of the iceberg.  And, astonishingly, we are talking about it now.  I thought from the Tea Party perspective that we’d have to have another Revolutionary War-type engagement to get control of government spending and waste.  I never thought that President Trump, one of the wealthiest men in the world, would be in the White House, which meant he was personally free of the typical social constraints that even keep the questions from being asked.  Or that the wealthiest and most innovative CEO in the world would personally create a department to oversee waste management and root out the perpetrators like a gunslinging sheriff in a wild and hostile old west town full of criminals. 

I think Elon Musk has done enough, and if he did nothing else with DOGE, he has given us something that will last well into the future.  I do not think that Democrats will be back in the White House anytime soon, if ever.  I do not see them retaking power in the House and Senate and gaining the ability to stop DOGE politically.  No, I think DOGE is here to stay and will run fine because it has good people in it, and it started because of Elon Musk.  But it has emerged into its own thing, and now there is a level of expectation for it to continue.  The public will never not want a DOGE to look out for waste on their behalf.  Going back to the system where looters were free to steal all they could from the government system will never be what it was.  In a lot of ways, creating DOGE is what people looked through all the smoke to elect Trump in the first place was all about.  This is precisely why we wanted Trump.  Elon Musk wouldn’t be able to participate in our government if not for how Trump runs things.  This kind of CEO management style has taken this government waste problem and brought it out of the box for us to fix, instead of the continued policies of hiding the issue from the world and hoping that nobody notices.  DOGE has been so successful that the expectation will be that it will always be a part of government and that its role will expand with time to unleash enterprising people to protect government systems from the parasitic nature of most human beings.  Only the threat of getting caught will keep people in line.  And without DOGE, there was nothing to give criminals pause.  But now there is, and we are far better off for it.

The Value of Frisch’s in Cincinnati: Anti family efforts by lots of bad people show just what they want to do to America

The trouble started for Frisch’s restaurants in the Cincinnati area when they allowed a private equity acquisition from NRD Capital to bring in a bunch of woke ideas that started a chain reaction beginning in 2015 that essentially killed the business during the self-made government Covid crises that sealed the deal.  Sadly, Frisch’s has always been a big part of my family’s life; but these days, they are empty everywhere.  I saw the writing on the wall the day I tried to order a Coke, and they told me they had switched to Pepsi products.  That was in 2015, ahead of President Trump’s first term, and I shook my head at my wife at the impending doom that was to come.  Pepsi tends to support a client base that is more liberal than Coke, which has, over the years, marketed toward more traditional audiences.  And Frisch’s was always about respect for tradition, family strength, and the morning breakfast bar.  It has been very sad to see so many of Frisch’s restaurants closing, especially the one in Fairfield off Seward Road, and the one right in the heart of Sharonville.  A few are still fluttering along, but when I drive by them at 6:30 AM, they are as closed as a barn door to a stable full of wild horses.  A self-imposed exile caused by parasitic lending practices and people in finance who thought they could loot benefit from a solid Cincinnati tradition, when they set up a lease agreement that just financially crushed the restaurant chain that relied on family tradition and a community experience to survive.  Other similar restaurants, such as Denny’s, Applebee’s, and Red Lobster, have all been going through the same kind of challenges.  But adding to the problem were the Covid shutdowns, for which Frische’s never recovered, and changes in social discourse that has an anti-family slant to it, and what we are seeing now with the closure of over 40 locations, 20 of them just in 2024 alone, is the foolish and parasitic imposition of government and short sighted financial institutions destroying American business.

No people at the breakfast bar at 7 AM

I have unique knowledge about this decline as I used to work at Frisch’s as a waiter during the 90s, a period that had crushing difficulty for me.  I was going through a lot of what Frisch’s is now at that time in my life, with serious lawsuits and government trouble that were crushing.  A lot of people would not have blamed me for committing suicide, given the level of pain and suffering I was enduring at this time.  It was so severe and complex that Job from the Bible was fortunate.  People had no idea how I would survive or if I would.  Without being too ostentatious, I can say that it was horrible, and at the time, I saw no way out.  I was acting as my own lawyer in several lawsuits, which did not have a very good track record of success.  Looking back on it, believe what you want about God, but he was testing me, and I passed the test primarily by dusting myself off and becoming a waiter at Frisch’s while I spent the next five years digging out of that bottomless hole with extraordinarily high tips from a public who had come to like me quite a bit.  I was their area philosopher, and people would come to eat at the Frisch’s restaurant that I worked at on Fields Ertle Road to hear me talk and give them advice.  And I learned a lot about people during this critical time that I use daily.  And the wisdom I gained from all that crushing pain was better than all the gold available to the masses of humanity.  And thinking back on it, I couldn’t have had it any other way. 

I picked that particular restaurant to work at because it was where my wife and I went all the time as a young couple, and on the first day that my first daughter was born, coming home from the hospital, we ate there with her all cuddled up in a blanket on the table.  So I picked that moment to make a massive life recovery, and hustled back to health.  I put on a smile and a whole lot of hustle, worked all I could and I won my cases, fought off a lot of very evil people and I made a small fortune in unnaturally high tips because of my personality and the families who came to eat at the restaurant that I was working at to have me work their table.  They would ask for me at the front specifically.  I understood why Frisch’s was such a great place as a host to the family experience, and I wanted to help with that effort any way I could, literally being at the bottom of the barrel myself.  I learned that a healthy dose of optimism can carry you through anything, for a large part, that was the marketing plan for Frisch’s to provide a platform for the public to engage in positive community interaction.  It’s where people went to see their friends and neighbors and to have good food, which started with the Car Hop days, where personal automobiles fused with American lifestyles centered around freedom and independence. 

You can’t live in the past, and things do change.  But what happened to Frisch’s is a massive social breakdown where people don’t go out into the community for a shared experience anymore, and that is a government policy problem attached to the United Nations.  The breakdown of the family structure is very much a globalist trend that interferes with places of business like Frisch’s.  I was also so pro-family that my customers would give me their checks worth of tips to show their appreciation, tipping at a rate of 80% or more, with 100% not uncommon.  Rob Dibble, the former Reds pitcher from the Nasty Boy days used to stop by and eat at my station quite often and would leave me $100 tips for a ten-dollar check, to hear me talk.  People went to Frisch’s for the company and the food.  The globalism that attacked American ideas was against both things that migrated into our local community through hostile lending practices, leaving behind a lot of history and tradition. And Frisch’s and its excellent breakfast bars are now a thing of the past.  And the writing was on the wall when they switched from Coke to Pepsi in 2015.  It was too late when they tried to correct that mistake just a few years ago and return to Coke.  They had blown their market viability and been destroyed by forces that took it for granted that Frisch’s would always have its lights on.  And now people don’t do things as a family like they used to, leaving Frisch’s out of the consideration by a public that used to value those experiences and has not yet replaced the sentiment with other options in the marketplace.  This wasn’t a natural market-driven killing. It was the purposeful destruction of many hidden elements that are parasitic in nature and anti-American at heart.  And Frisch’s was, and whatever survives from all this, a very pro-American family gathering place that shows what the efforts of globalism always intended for them and us as a whole.  Without Trump, America would be just as Frisch’s is now, only a memory with empty storefronts and massive debts as a distant memory of what it once was.

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

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

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

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

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

Republicans Can Win A Super Majority: Democrats only won anything with election fraud

I keep hearing that Democrats are holding their noses trying to get to the midterms, where traditionally, voters pick the other party once the party in power has had a chance to do their damage.  Democrats think that automatically, they’re going to win back at least the House, that they will be able to stop the Trump agenda, and that everything will snap back to normal.  But I don’t think so.  Democrats, more than ever, have a terrible platform that Americans are rejecting.  And of course, you know what I always say, that Democrats can’t win anything if they don’t cheat.  In the last election, many of the close calls we saw in the House and Senate races came in areas where election fraud occurred.  So if Republicans had watched the election results better, there would be more Republicans in the House than there are, and the majority could be much larger.  I think Republicans, if they prevent Democrats from committing election fraud, can gain a super majority and take their current results to even better standings.  And I think that is because of the current temperament of the country.  I do not see Democrats picking up any seats, even in local elections.  Based on their performance, they have destroyed their brand and are struggling to find any message that resonates with voters, and they don’t have it.  This is a different time than anything we had seen, so historical precedent is entirely out the window.  I do not see a scenario where Republicans lose anything so long as they keep the elections honest, because it is that bad for Democrats.  And even among themselves, they have a lot of people who have crossed over and joined Republicans because the Democrat brand is so bad. 

Oh, you might say we can’t prove election fraud, that there is no evidence.  Here’s the thing: just because people refuse to look at the evidence doesn’t mean that it’s not there.  Our court system let us down with election fraud cases because lawfare is dangerous to our society.  In most of the places where Republicans lost seats to Democrats, they were in areas where voter ID laws allowed undocumented immigrants to vote.  In places where voter ID made it hard to cheat, Republicans generally won.  What does that tell you?  Are the places where there are measures against election fraud Republican areas?  That controlling election fraud is a Republican concern?  Or that by default, anywhere that Democrats can cheat, they have the opportunity where there are loose laws allowing them to do so.  Whichever it is, that is not good math for Democrats.  They don’t hold an equal presence at the ballot box, which is now more apparent than ever.  So there isn’t any hint that Democrats will pick up anything in the upcoming midterms.  The horse race the media likes to go through during each election cycle isn’t there.  The Democrats don’t have anybody who can win a national election because their platform has been rejected as a failure.  That’s why Trump has won three elections in a row, and what started a decade ago was the hint of things to come, that people were done with the kind of politics that gave us the socialist disaster of Barack Obama.  Building a platform off guilt just wasn’t a smart move, and now that people have seen an option, they will never go back.  And Democrats just aren’t prepared for it.

Did you see the sit-in that Democrats did on the steps of the Capitol?   My wife and I were just in Washington, D.C., and saw some of the typical protestor types there and down on the Mall, and they came out flat.  Nothing is resonating with Democrats, none of their usual talking points.  And I think it is mainly because President Trump is a kind of traditional Democrat who pulled away so many other Democrats from the party, like RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, and Elon Musk.  As a Republican, I’m not exactly happy about any of that.  I don’t like Democrats; I see them generally as broken people with broken ideas.  However, regarding party politics, I understand the need for a big tent party with many people who think different things.  That’s how you win elections, when many people want to head in the same direction.  So, an America First policy has allowed Democrats to join Republicans and for the GOP to expand its tent to accommodate all newcomers.  But you don’t see the same thing ever happening with Republicans joining Democrats.  We have been purging the RINOs from the party for several years now.  You don’t hear about the Mitch McConnell types or the Mitt Romneys.  Many party bosses who held the order of political theater together are gone, leaving Trump to control most political perceptions.  And as we visited Washington, D.C. this time with Trump in office, it was apparent everywhere.  The entire place felt different, even out by the airport.  No, this was a different kind of Republican Party than what we have had in the past, and suddenly nothing is appealing about any Democrat, leaving those most hopeful to leave the party in favor of the public sentiment. 

So, election fraud is the key.  We still haven’t properly prosecuted the election fraud that we know about.  The system hopes everyone will go back to sleep, but I don’t see that happening.  If Republicans make it hard for Democrats to cheat, especially on the voter ID issue, I’m saying that Democrats can’t win those elections, and Republicans will pick up many seats, even to the point of a super majority.  And a super majority is determined here by control of at least 60% of a body.  Looking at the math, Republicans could have come close in the last 2024 election to getting such a majority, but they went to sleep.  Everyone was watching Trump, and the momentum shifted so dramatically in his direction that even the fraudsters didn’t have the heart to fight anymore.  But a lot of those regional races where Democrats just barely beat the Republicans to keep it close in the House and Senate, most of those races were won by Democrats through fraud.  And if the mechanism were in place to prevent that fraud, the Republicans would have won.  This is why Democrats are so adamant about the illegal aliens.  They need them for voters, and they can’t afford for over 10 million illegals to be deported, because that is most of their voting base.  And even with them, people from other countries are voting for the America First position.  They aren’t voting for Democrats.  So don’t assume that Democrats will win back the House, or anything in the upcoming midterms.  I think Republicans can completely control their destiny if they take away the potential of election fraud.  And that if they do, Democrats may never win another election on any level, because their brand is so bad.  But now is not the time to play nice.  Reform elections so that voter ID is a requirement everywhere, and Democrats will not be able to win.  Republicans can win a super majority if only they support elections that prevent fraud with voter ID.
