I Tried to Tell Everyone: The Democrats are destroyed, and they are never coming back

So how did we get here, with Trump in the White House, to answer the question that Democrats have been asking of themselves lately?  Some are just going crazy because they don’t understand what happened.  But I warned everyone back in the 90s that if they went down this path with leadership, then they would choke on it.  Bill Clinton got caught up in all kinds of things, and this is after we had 8 years of Ronald Reagan, so people had pretty high expectations of what a president should be.  Bill Clinton was a disaster.  His womanizing and references to drugs were embarrassing, and when we showed outrage about the behavior, people like James Carville would come out and say, “It’s the economy stupid,” meaning things were working under Clinton, so don’t worry about the other stuff.  Saul Alinsky purposefully exploited this good nature with Republicans openly in his book Rules for Radicals, where they do something wrong and then blame the people they are working against for actually doing it.  And they got away with it perpetually because Republicans were too friendly to call them out on what they were doing wrong, giving them unearned merit in political existence.  Obama was even worse; once the “Democrats” realized what they could get away with, they overloaded the insults on Republicans and their expectations of morality in political leaders with defacing results, with Obama rumors of being gay, doing drugs, and not being even born in the United States, with him being given unwarranted respect just because of his skin color, with his communist background with a wide range of father figures who were troubled people.   He launched his political career in the living room of Bill Ayers, the convicted domestic terrorist from the Weather Underground.  They insulted us with open support for the Castro communists just off the coast of Cuba, and whenever we pointed things out, we were told to sit down, shut up, and be happy with the job they were doing.  Don’t judge.  (We need to turn Cuba into another American state)

Well, people steamed on this kind of thing for several decades, and I have been waiting for Republicans to crack the code and figure out the game.  Cracking that morality code is why I write these articles every day: to help people, conservatives or people thinking about becoming conservatives, with the confidence they need to fight true evil, and these people are exactly that.  They took over our public offices and desecrated them, then told us not to have an opinion about it.  So, I have been hoping for someone like Trump to come along for a long time.  As a reminder, four years after Reagan, I campaigned hard for Ross Perot.  I told the story this past week of when Perot’s daughters gave me a very nice tie from that campaign in Dallas, Texas, the night before the election in 1992.  I liked Perot over Bush because he knew how to defend America with warranted merit, whereas Bush did not.  And Clinton was just a sleazy con artist.  Many people blamed me for Ross Perot pulling votes away from Bush over the years in political circles.  But Bush was only accelerating the problem of the kind of evil coming out of the Democrat Party, and we were going to go down the tube one way or another.  I wasn’t about to put my name next to failure to keep a party together, hoping that Bush would give us a few pieces of lent from Reagan and that we should be happy about it.  I have been on a moral crusade in politics since then.  Naturally, I was among the first to sign up when the Tea Party movement came around. 

I was doing work in Hollywood when Barack Obama came along after 8 years of whitewashing George Bush’s very unsatisfying behavior.  I hated Obama tremendously, and I saw the way he was seducing all the Hollywood types out in California in 2008.  I could have kept quiet and made a lot of money, like everyone else.  But I stepped away to contribute myself to the rebellion against the demons of the world, and I’m glad I did.  And a few years into that movement, we started taking out all the RINOs in politics who had been helping this vile evil along.  And when Trump began to get serious about running for president, which I knew about because of the Ross Perot Reform Party that formed in the wake of his efforts, Trump was getting serious at the end of the 1990s.  I saw him at a few events and thought he would be great.  The only drawback, I thought, was his womanizing.  He had been married too much and was associated with gambling casinos.  But after a few years of Obama, I started to think that Trump would be the perfect undoing of the massive destruction that the Democrats had done to the world.  By the time 2015 came around, I had been supportive of Trump before he went down the escalator.  I was a fan of the Bill O’Reilly interview where he proposed a “why not” scenario for Trump.  And the rest has been history.  Trump has been for Republicans the exorcism against demons that has been desperately needed for several decades now. 

The Democrat game of “ignoring what we do, but we’ll use everything against you” method, which was exposed fully during that first Trump term, and people could see just how bad everything was, was falling apart.  Then the way that Bret Kavanaugh was put through the wringer and, most recently, Pete Hegseth over silly things like drinking or womanizing, after what the Democrats had given us—homosexuals having sodomized sex in our government buildings on camera for all to see, then being told not to judge, was too much for people to endure anymore.  Trump had morality problems, but after what we had become used to, people were willing to overlook those things and vote for someone who could do the job.  People no longer wanted a moral leader from an elected representative.  They gave up on that a long time ago, thanks to Democrat behavior.  So they moved toward merit; they just wanted someone who could do the job they needed best.   And in that world, Democrats aren’t very good at anything but complaining, so they can’t compete.  And Trump is running them all down, and people are happy about it.  But how did it happen?  Well, Democrats lowered the bar so much that they never seemed to consider that it would lower for Republicans, too.  I don’t think Trump is a low bar by any measure.  It allowed excellence as an executive to move into public office even if it took three marriages and kids by all different women to be overcome so he would get a chance among voters.  People thought, “Why not? After all, the Democrats gave us.”  And now they can’t compete with Trump.  They destroyed themselves with this Saul Alinsky game.  They put themselves out of business, and given that little history I presented, they will never return.  They will never gain any political footing ever again.  And while they were looking around, trying to figure out what happened, I tried to tell everyone, especially them.  But they didn’t listen, and here they are.

A Shadowman, a Knife and a Dead Rabbit: The politics of the spirit world

The thing I spend the most time thinking about is the politics of the spirit world.  The political motivations of demons, kami, and jinn depend on what culture we’re dealing with worldwide, whether in the Orient, the Near East, or the West.  Every culture has a reference to such creatures, and I’d say that science is finally starting to root them out of mythology and to understand them and their residence in quantum physics.  Like all living creatures, they have a political system that is alluded to in the Bible, the Quaran, and almost every religious document ever known.  In Jewish tradition, these are the Elohim, the Divine Council of God, who have always been there.  They work and plot against God, and our lives are often the battlefield of their designs and manipulations.  I think about the role that they play in our lives and what their politics are as much as I do think about Republicans and Democrats in America and sovereign nations around the world fighting it out against communists.  So when Aaron Rogers gives interviews about a shadow man who looms in the distance wherever he goes, holding a knife and a dead rabbit, I don’t think he’s crazy.  This has been a problem for him since he started going to ayahuasca sessions in Peru and started what many people believe has ruined him as a professional football player and put him in an over-the-rainbow status of the loony asylum.  But I don’t think he’s crazy at all.  I’ve seen plenty of shadow people like Aaron Rogers has seen, and I don’t do drugs in the least.  But when Aaron Rogers started taking ayahuasca from the shamans in Peru, seeking meaning in his life like so many do these days, he trained his mind to see things that were always there.  Only now is he seeing it in a way that many did in the Bible and starting a relationship with the political order of scandalous demons who are always lurking just beyond our perceived reality.

When I hear Aaron Rogers tell the story, it’s obvious to me what happened.  You might take the same route to work every day and not see a Cybertruck that parks somewhere along your standard drive.  But one day, you start thinking about buying one because you saw an advertisement or interacted with one in some way that caused you to start thinking about them, and suddenly, on that same route to work, you start seeing that one parked in that parking lot.  It was always there, but your mind switched to seeing more than your eyes were trained to see under normal conditions.  People who take ayahuasca, I think, aren’t hypercharging their brains with psychedelics and inspiring their imaginations to see illusions.  But they see more of what is always there, which looms in quantum physics.  We see lives that are always there but exist outside our dimensional reality. Interestingly, when the world’s noise was less, people had much more open relationships with the spirit world than they do now.  The Bible is filled with such experiences, as are most religious texts.  I have witnessed on a mass scale how the Japanese honor the kami of the spirit world on almost every street corner in even their most cosmopolitan cities.  Everywhere are shrines to the spirit world, hoping to appease their help and avoid harm from their strange political order, which looms through our lives in various ways.

I think one of the most significant pieces of literature that pulls mback the veil to this kind of activity is the excellent book of the Apocrypha, a book I think clearly should have been part of the general body of work that is the Bible, the story, the Testament of Solomon, as in King Solomon, son of David, part of the line of Abraham and a hand-picked king for God to lead his people in the hostile promised land where there was a battle between Baal, Moloch and the Hebrew God Yahweh.  Many times, I’ve told the story about my obsession with King Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem and why they built it there.  There is a lot to think about regarding that Temple and its place in the narrative of the Bible.  The story goes that King Solomon had his temple built by jinn, the demonic spirits that are so openly talked about in the Quran, the same thing we call demons in Western culture, and essentially the same characters that you find in the streets of Japan in the kami.  Solomon is given a ring that controls the demons and makes them do what he needs them to do.  Otherwise, they are always working a kind of mischief quite pronounced in their political order, which seems to always run at the cross purposes of our lives.  They use us for their political games that have an inspiration beyond our standard line of sight.  So Solomon uses this magic ring to force the demons to his will, and they build the Temple of Solomon, today’s most contentious piece of real estate on planet Earth.  Solomon blew it when he wanted to sleep with one of his many thousands of wives, and she demanded that before he touched her, he sacrifice five grasshoppers to her god Moloch.  And for that, God got mad, split up the kingdom between Solomon’s sons, and the destruction of Israel started for this original sin. 

I’ve been to many of the great cathedrals of Europe, especially the one in Canterbury.  I have had an obsession with the Canterbury Tales most of my life and a deep longing to live in the world of James Joyce’s Finnegan’s Wake.  In all these places, I see the deep fear of what happened to the human race, which was what essentially happened to King Solomon.  There is a deep desire to hope that Jesus can save all humanity from this aggressive political order.  The characters are very terrifying and are in every culture of the world, but like the Tower of Babel story, everyone has had their impressions changed enough that nobody cooperates.  But why?  How did we arrive in those conditions?  When you study how Democrats have played the Saul Alinsky game against Republicans for many years, you begin to understand.  They learned their tricks from the demons of the spirit world and used their strategies in our conscious reality.  And like Trump is now doing what King Solomon failed to do to the world, the aggressors are always there.  And they have political motivations that look mysterious to us because we don’t usually pay them much attention.  But in cases like Aaron Rogers, who punched hyper-reality into his brain with ayahuasca on occasions now from the shaman in Peru with that strange brew common there, you sometimes see these characters from Solomon’s stories and his downfall, chasing you around with a knife and a dead rabbit.  They are not there for our benefit but to use us for a massive overthrow of the world as they know it, and we are learning about, in quantum mechanics and a linear timeline that is all at once, ever-present.  I don’t think Aaron Rogers is crazy.  He is waking up to a reality incompatible with the perspective of a human life.  However, a reality that we all know and fear looms outside our observable reality and is vulnerable to motivations only they understand in their politics of the spirit world.  So if you happen to see a shadowy man holding a knife and a dead rabbit chasing you around, don’t be surprised. 

I understand Melania’s hat. She knows………it’s time to turn the tables

Mitch McConnell is Out in the Senate: Making a point, and making a difference

I thought it was a pathetic speech, Mitch McConnell’s last one as a senator in any leadership position.  He gave it right before Christmas in 2024, and it came across as petty but very revealing.  As I say all this, I get high-level politics and understand all too well how tough it can be working with people who disagree with you.  I am used to spending most of my time overcoming the objections of people who disagree with me and working hard to turn them into my way of thinking.  Not through force, but by showing them how much they would benefit from doing so.  Some of my best friends are powerful politicians who have to do that every day.  They work with everybody and anybody.  And for that matter, I understand Trump because he has all these traits naturally.  And since he first ran for office, or talked about it, back in the late 1990s with the Reform Party, I thought Trump would be great in a political role because he knows how to get things done and overcome people’s objections while showing them the benefit of agreeing with him.  That’s more of an Art of the Deal than a political thing.  However, that is what Mitch McConnell talked about in his last speech.  Instead, he referred insultingly to what he thinks people in politics are or should be doing.  And he narrowed it all down to two key ingredients that everyone who gets into political office seeks to do, based on all his vast years of experience in the Senate.  He says there are two kinds of people who go to the Senate: people who want to make a point, and those who want to make a difference. 

Mitch came across as an old man trying to learn to play video games.  What I heard from him was a frustrated person who realized that the game had changed from underneath him, and he had no idea how to adapt to it.  He was at the end of his career and wouldn’t be a part of anything under these new rules, and he was frustrated.  The world was going to move on without him, and he was not being revered as a great Senator who had been a leader for many decades.  He was being viewed as an Anti-Trump loser who sold our country out and was the kind of person who put his name on that CR at the end of 2024 that had been 1500 pages and lost the battle to Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy on the X platform in getting the bill crushed before a vote could be made.  What replaced that bill was a much more narrowly focused CR with many bells and whistles removed, which bothered Mitch McConnell.  And that frustration came out in his speech when he referred to those against his way of doing politics as just getting involved to make a point.  I think what he said revealed why so many members of the Senate and the House have problems because they never did understand what getting into politics was supposed to be.  I find Mitch McConnell revolting, not because he was anti-Trump but because he had so much power, but he never used that power to build a replacement bridge on I-75 going over from Cincinnati into Northern Kentucky.  At one point in 2012, he shared the powers of government with John Boehner, who was Speaker of the House and lived right across the Ohio River and was just as motivated.  But both men dropped the ball and got caught up in the Washington game of Beltway politics where the lobbyists rule the day, and they became part of the problem.  Certainly not a solution. We still don’t have a bridge after decades of trying.  And they had all the levers of power to make it happen.

It’s not like I don’t know the type of people I think should be in the Senate.  I would say I know J.D. Vance pretty well.  He’s from my area, and I’ve met him often.  He’s nothing like Mitch McConnell.  I also know the newly elected Bernie Moreno.  I was one of his very first supporters and was invited to have lunch personally with him in the early stages of his campaign, and I was able to talk to him about why he was running.  He did not run for the Senate to make a difference or a point.  He wanted to be a good manager in the Senate, representing Ohio along the way.  When we voted for him, we were not voting for a MAGA disrupter who just wanted to make a point.  We wanted President Trump’s management support in the Senate so he could be a better president.  I also asked J.D. Vance and Bernie Moreno the same question privately.  I said, “If you get in, are you just going to be another louse hanging out on K-Street making deals with scum bags who want to destroy this country in trade for the benefits of some whore standing on the street corner?”  In both cases, they said to me “no Mr. Hoffman.  Absolutely not.”  J.D. Vance kept his promise so far and was an excellent Senator until Trump picked him to be V.P.  So we know the difference between a J.D. Vance, who was new, and an old corrupt politician like Mitch McConnell. 

And yes, when I spoke to both of those guys and many others in the House and Senate, that was my typical question to break the ice.  I am always interested in how they answer, and I can tell a lot by nonverbal communication, whether they are lying to me or sincere.  That’s my way of doing things, and it’s always why I tend to be in a position to ask those questions in the first place.  People respect my opinion and like it when I’m part of the process, especially on the front end.  In doing this kind of thing for several decades, I have known Mitch McConnell, and many have liked him over the years.  And they take the easy way out and listen to all the lobbyists when they shouldn’t.  And they played their role in jacking up our debt to over 35 trillion dollars and adding another trillion in wasteful spending every 100 days.  And they do all that calling the effort compromise.  When what they are doing is packing vast amounts of evil in these bills, passing them so everyone can get what they want, and selling that corruption as a good government that compromises with the bad guys.  Then, they say to their critics that compromising is more virtuous than standing your ground on anything.  And those who do are the kind of people who want to make a point.  They don’t understand how government works, and they certainly don’t understand the Senate.  But to my eyes, all that McConnell said on his way out the door sounded like a 90-year-old grandpa with one foot in the grave trying to learn to play Fortnite with a 7-year-old, slow, crusty and complaining about how fast the world was moving because he didn’t have the skills to play the game.  And that is why Mitch McConnell is out of the Senate, and we are all happy that he is.

Dealing with the Covid Bioweapon: If we don’t punish the terrorists, they’ll do it again

The truth is a lot of people pay close attention to the things I say and write about here on this site, and there are many things that need to be talked about that nobody in the world is bringing up quite the way I do.  After Trump won, I thought very seriously about taking a rest from doing all these articles.   I have achieved what I wanted in doing all this work.  However, the fact remains that over time, I have earned a lot of respect for many reasons that can remain unsaid.  Many topics, like the one today, need to be talked about by an administration and political structure suddenly in a position to do something about some of these terrible things or dramatic considerations.  That is certainly the case with COVID-19, what I consider the most significant menace ever to be injected into mass society, and the people who did it, by the many thousands, need to be punished.  Of course, chaos is being dispelled to hide what these evil people did, but if you read the Coronavirus Pandemic report from the Select Subcommittee After Action Review on the COVID-19 PANDEMIC: The Lessons Learned and a Path Forward report published in December of 2024 clearly what we experienced was an artificially created bioweapon that was unleashed by globalist forces hostile to the first Trump administration to impose mass casualties on the human race to prevent a massive political change that had been occurring at the time and is now returning out of the sheer will of the people to make it so.  It was an attack on America every bit as vicious as Pearl Harbor was.  It was a military attack that impacted every single person on planet Earth, and people have to be punished for it.  Much of what I said about COVID is not how Congressman Brad Wenstrup, who was chairman for the report, said it.

Brad is a good Ohio congressman and hardly a crazy conspiracy theorist, so the revelations in that report are alarming.  The evidence points to COVID-19 being an artificial virus that leaked out of a lab in Wuhan, China, and the Chinese people knew all about it.  I know where all this is going.  I have read many, many, many books now that there is plenty of after-action reporting, specifically from Robert F. Kennedy, and I know the details, many of which were confirmed by Wenstrup’s report to Congress as politically correct as they could have possibly have made the greatest crime of this century or any for that matter, be.  The only answer for me on all this would have been for Kennedy to be a part of the incoming Trump administration and to be able to do something about all this.  And that is going to happen and I couldn’t be happier about it.  However, the fact remains that Congress and the Senate have to face the facts of what happened and who did what.  We must admit that Covid was not public health crisis management.  It was purposeful terrorism by unhealthy people who can never be allowed to pull on the government’s levers of power again.  And we must caution ourselves always into the future how much faith we put in static-generated experts who appear to be our friends, the way that Dr. Fauci suckered the world at the time, and who are globalist terrorists inflicting as much damage as possible to drive a personal ideology of politics that is a danger to mass society. 

These are people who lied to the President of the United States with such disrespect that they essentially spit in all our faces as Trump was our representative in the White House, and they went into his office and told him to shut down the economy or else.  There would be millions of deaths because of Covid, and they would be all his fault.  That was what Bill Gates and Dr. Fauci told Trump in January of 2020, an election year.  And Trump got suckered into playing the COVID game of global domination.  And the white-coat terrorists worked on a plan that was obvious to them at the beginning.  I know it very personally because in Ohio, we had Amy Acton, the Health Director for the DeWine administration, and I knew the people fighting on that front.  And Amy Acton was a crazy leftist who was out of her mind.  When she was telling Ohio to shut down all our businesses and to yield to the virus and was citing Joseph Campbell’s books as the crisis management tool in dealing with a global pandemic, I knew we were dealing with phony boloney.  There aren’t too many people in the world who have read as much from Joseph Campbell as I have, so I know how Amy Acton was taking that author way out of context to drive a social and political narrative rooted in massive Marxism and was far more an act of war than healthcare policy.  I was one of the few people to question it at the time.  Governor DeWine was surely suckered into COVID-19, but then again, so was Trump, for a few months anyway.  They eventually figured out what was happening and acted to reverse the trend.  This extends into this re-elected administration and puts Kennedy in charge of the fix in the future. 

So before anybody feels sorry for the big pharma companies that will be put through the paces, some probably won’t survive; remember what they did.  Once Trump returns to office and does a lot of what must be done, read the report from Brad and many others and get familiar with the facts of the matter.  I have said the politically incorrect aspects of it to help everyone get where they need to be on this issue.  Let’s just cut to the chase if you don’t want to read all the research for yourself.  However, Kennedy wrote the two best books on the case against the criminals of COVID-19.  Or published by the Children’s Health Defense, specifically the early work by Judy Mikovits, which all turned out to be spot on, even in those first few scary months of 2020 where stupidly, the world shut down based on the advice of terrorists like Dr. Fauci and a complicit media who put him on top of the world to rule from it and impose global socialism as a direct policy correction to the released effects of the Covid bioweapon.  Because that’s what Covid was, a designed bioweapon meant to inflict mass casualties, and it was attached directly to work at the Department of Defense.  And that weapon was used on us not for national defense but to change our style of government.  It was hostile, purposeful, and highly criminal.  And people have to be punished for it.  I would go as far as to say that capital punishment should be the means in most cases.  It was that brutal, and we have to deal with it for what it was, not lie to ourselves, point to the past, and say it belongs back there.  We must deal with it proactively, or the bad guys will try again.  And the next time, we might not survive.  If they are left alone, you can bet they will do it again because the bad guys will not like the changes coming with this new Trump administration.  If we don’t want to see a repeat of Covid over the coming months and years, we need to attack the attackers before they get another chance because they are indeed planning another one as we speak.  Without question!

The Velvet Hammer: Life is more like playing poker than we’d like it to be

A lot of people are upset that Trump had a lunch meeting with Mark Zuckerberg at Mar-a-Lago after all that Zuckerbucks had done to cause trouble in the 2020 election and censor people politically on his Facebook platform.  After all, he was one of the most evil people from the past, and here he was, groveling in front of Trump, looking to be a part of the future.  And everyone’s first instinct is that he should be in jail, perhaps worse.  My first reaction was that I would never sit down with an enemy like that.  I tend to hold grudges forever, and I get all the people who do me wrong back for things they’ve done to me or tried to do to me, even if it takes decades.  I never get over anything.  Most people at least think that way, even if, in reality, they tend to be more forgiving.  But then I was reminded that it was just this past week that I was called a Velvet Hammer by a friend of mine.  I tend to tell people to “go to Hell,” where they thank me for the opportunity by the time I’m done with them.  That is something that I have learned to do over time, and I think it comes with any successful experience when it comes to people. You have to really open up the toolbox of communication to deal with a variety of people who all want different things.  My first reaction to being called a Velvet Hammer was that this person was telling me my way of fighting with people was like a woman, which is one of those woke things that we’re not even supposed to consider these days.  But women often don’t fight directly about anything and seldom ever say what they mean.  They might deal with another woman thinking, “You dumb bitch, you’re trying to steal my husband,” when in reality, they say, “We should get a latte at Starbucks sometime.”  Conversely, men would deal with conflict much differently; one moment, they might want to fight in the parking lot, and the next, they are the best of friends sharing eternal bonding.  Men get over things fast, by biological necessity.  But in the business world, with men and women being thrown together like no other time in history, where those elements have to be dealt with in some way, successful people must expand their communication ability to be effective. 

That’s something I have learned over time, which is to develop many ways to communicate with many tools in the toolbox rather than a hammer and chisel to get an idea across to people resistant to it.  In many cases, there are legal parameters that you always have to be aware of, so you can’t say things to people that they could then legally use against you or that culturally violate basic assumptions about work that have been shaped by radical leftist politics and a media culture that leans dramatically to Marxism.  You might feel very strongly about something, but you can’t express it to people who think very differently about it because they don’t have the right kind of mind even to hear what you are saying.  So I have had to learn to express myself to the limits of the people around me, which is why that Velvet Hammer designation came my way because the situation was very delicate, and I did have to tell people to go to Hell while at the same time having them thank me for the experience. 

And naturally, Trump, being at the top of the business world for many years, has had to learn this Velvet Hammer approach.  It is satisfying to tell people what you think of them, just as it is rewarding to punch someone in the face when they’ve done you wrong.  But the playground politics doesn’t translate well into the business world.  Maybe it should; perhaps the world would be better off if people always said what they meant about everything.  But that’s not how humans are wired; there are always subtleties with people, and often, it’s best to keep your enemies close so you can see how they will play their cards.  Life is much more like poker, where the other players are constantly lying to you, than a religious confessional, and to have a relationship with them, which is often necessary, the best way to navigate is through communication methods that are beyond their innate experiences learned from childhood on conflict resolution.  You can still hit them over the head with a hammer, but a little velvet on it helps delay the realization about what you are doing until they’ve given you what you want, and they don’t realize what you are doing to them until it’s too late.  Trump has mastered this technique without question, and that’s what he has been doing with Mark Zuckerberg.  Can he use the dumb kid to good effect, trading jail for reform on his deep past with working with the three-lettered intelligence agencies to bring America down from within?  While people might instinctively want to see Zuckerberg hang, Trump, the intelligent business guy, wonders if there is some way he can profit from the situation Zuckerberg finds himself in, which is the best way to make a good deal for yourself. 

And when you are a winner in your engagements, you can afford to use a Velvet Hammer rather than desperately fighting for your rights to exist.  Having your enemies come to you and grovel at your feet is the best reward.  Zuckerberg is trying to survive in a world he went all in on destroying, and now he has to wake up each day trying to appeal to the people he most hurt.  And what can be learned from his network if he’s allowed to share a bit in that world?  After all, that’s what Mika and Joe Scarborough did from The Morning Joe Show on MSNBC was the same thing Zuckerberg did, and that was to see Trump and grovel in front of him since he had won the election and the right to shape the world from the Executive Branch.  Defeated foes have been boot-licking and groveling like this for thousands of years.  But as the one having their boots licked, the way to get them working in your direction is with a velvet hammer. Not a sledgehammer that crushes them out of existence.  You want to know what people are up to because they seldom reveal it deliberately.  If you want to work with lots of different people who all have other motives, and you want to win them over to your way of thinking, then you have to find a way to get them under control and pointed in the right direction in ways that make it look profitable for them.  In Zuckerberg’s situation, Trump has a full checkmate on him, and everyone knows it.  There is only one path for Zuckerberg and Trump to control it.  So when a business guy gets that kind of leverage over someone, there is a lot more profit for Trump in utilizing it to proper effect than in having the satisfaction of Zuckerberg being hit over the head and having his soul crushed.  Because, at that point, he’s just another useless carcass.  However, making him an asset is why President Trump is rich. He learned how to use the Velvet Hammer, and he does so often.

Things Will Never Be the Same: Public education taught us all the wrong values

It’s true; the game has changed forever, and I have been pointing out this for a long time.  The trajectory of social change didn’t just happen with one election, and as the political left attempts to cleave for power, and many RINO Republicans, there is a movement toward a universal law that has not been recognized so far in the human race.  It essentially goes back to the crucifixion of Christ and, what it meant to the human race and how many thousands of years leading up to it were inevitable.  It’s how human beings see themselves and have built class structures to protect the most timid among us from the harsh realities of existence.  However, the American experiment was the net result of this trajectory, and it has taken us another few years and some change to even get our minds around that reality.   It’s essentially what happened during the 2024 election and why entire government departments must be peeled away.  We also need to understand why we cannot have a Department of Education teaching global socialism when our entire education approach needs to change, starting with how John Dewey originally saw it.  We have learned all the wrong things socially and built our government systems around entirely the wrong premise.  And now, we have outgrown those assumptions, which will be exploited with this new space economy.  The human race will no longer be judged on the systems that seem essential on earth, the social structure around the campfire, or the city municipal building.  We are about to learn that all those previous assumptions were incorrect from the start and that the creation of the United States was a moral crusade built on many years of human failure.  And that America, as a concept of capitalist markets, was an answer that, perhaps for the first time in all human existence, is trying to do things correctly. 

Most of us had no choice, no matter where we came from, but our education systems were built on the wrong assumptions about what brought value to human endeavor and what that human input meant to the universe as a whole.  We have religions that have attempted to conceive the challenge, but the lessons of Jesus Christ cannot be ignored.  The long line of interpretation throughout the following 2000 years certainly fueled the need for creating an America, and those lessons ended up in our Constitution for lots of reasons that were meant to change the relationship of social order for the furtherance of universal existence and eternal quests for the nature of conscious thought.  We don’t exist to create power structures that are terrestrially based but to unleash the power of human creativity for the needs of multi-dimensional necessity that is directly connected to the intellect of human input across time and space for the ultimate price of Heavenly necessity.  We don’t exist to run for political office and get invited to fancy Christmas parties so other human beings can measure our worth by social popularity.  It’s to do much bigger things, and in many ways, the human need for its destiny culminated in what we saw with the 2024 election.  The results were always going to be the results.  Humanity would overcome its terrestrial limits for social order and escape into a new way of thinking.  We have all learned the same bad ideas from education systems that were unprepared for what we were supposed to be doing.  In our public education, we set the wrong priorities, so of course, it’s no surprise that we have grown up to believe all the wrong things.

As Bill Ayers has always said, our public education system was created to create a class structure that did not steer away from the mistakes we have always made in civilization.  That there would be an aristocratic order.  In high school, the cool kids who play on sports teams set the parameters for social order.  Then there is the middle class. In school, those are all the ordinary people who exist to support the impressions of an aristocracy and their net value.  To be among the popular kids, there must be many people who aren’t favored to give value to the merits of popularity.  Anybody can be famous as one person in a room by themselves.  To have value for popularity and aristocracy, there needs to be a vast middle class to prop up those at the top.  All social orders on planet Earth have followed this line of thought and have all been wrong.  Then of course we have the losers, the derelicts, the criminal scum bags of the lower class.  People who make the aristocracy feel good about their station in life in this kind of yin-yang existence.  To be good, we must have an element of bad to contrast the lives of those in charge.  When we set up public education in America, we did so to squeeze every person into one of these three categories and for them to remain in that situation for the rest of their lives.  The goal was to maintain a social order that everyone seemed to understand, not to challenge the human race’s creative output.  Going back to the killing of Jesus, whatever meaning religions might want to place on the event; the political issue was that the established order could not put up with a challenge to their static order.  The Essenes at the time, with whom Jesus and John the Baptist were associated, had a different way of viewing their relationship with eternity that did not involve the earthly social structure.  That is why John the Baptist was killed in the fierce fashion that he was, to satisfy the whims of the aristocracy that felt these young rebels threatened its power. 

We saw the same attempts to destroy President Trump for all the same reasons.  He threatened the social order and the structure we learned in public schools.   He was preaching a populism that wrecked the power structure of the Middle Class and empowered them to govern themselves as the Constitution promised.  Not to be ruled over by unelected bureaucrats.  This could not be tolerated by those who were protecting a power foundation they never had a right to have in the first place.  We could analyze a long list of persecutions, including the killing of Socrates, and they all have in common what President Trump just survived and was elected into office.  Instead of a crucifixion, which was attempted many times against Trump, which he survived under every condition, we had a man of exile returned to power through an election process and a Constitution that took away government power so as not to suppress human intellect for the first time in all human history.  That’s why Elon Musk, who had been thinking about governments on multiplanet endeavors, quickly supported Trump as president and found a new best friend.  Because he understands what happened, the human race cracked the code and would never be the same again.  Many are confused because they have learned all the wrong things about a life that has meaning in entirely different ways than they previously understood.  But when that assassin’s bullet missed Trump, the entire scope of the world changed for good.  And humanity started a journey to becoming a multiplanet culture.  And everything we have learned and done all this time was now on the chopping block.  And those who bet their entire lives on the value of aristocracy suddenly found themselves challenged to their very foundations.  And we were never going back ever again.

Its That Time: Here is the Strategy

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

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

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

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

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

If You Vote for Kamala Harris You Are Stupid: Only dumb people could vote for such a loser

It’s been a while since I was last in the northern part of Ohio, right before an election.  I remember traveling through Akron in 2016, a few weeks before the election, where I was visiting a tool manufacturer, and you could tell who was voting for who.  No matter how conservative the southern part of the state was, Cleveland, for example, and the areas directly to the south, like Akron, were overwhelmingly Democrat party voting areas.  This is the land of Sherrod Brown, the multi-decade senator from Ohio who has been hard to beat over the years.  This was labor union country, they tend to endorse Democrats very vocally.  But even back then, I could tell that Trump would do well in 2016 as Ohio was considered the must-win state, almost to the point where Florida was the other.  They were considered toss-ups during that first election of Trump and, as history would show, would become strongholds for Republicans over the next decade.  And by the time we arrived in 2024, Ohio was a solid state for Trump.  No matter where you went in the state, it was mostly all Trump yard signs.  So, I was curious how Cleveland would be.  I attended a gun competition in the region just a few weeks before the election.  And I saw some Harris signs along with Sherrod Brown signs.  But it is not like I have seen them in the past.  There were a lot of Trump signs, more than in 2016, or 2020 and more people supporting Bernie Moreno than Sherrod Brown.  Even in Cleveland, people were turning away from the Democrat party.  However, there were more visible signs of Democrats in this region, a wealthy suburb of Cleveland, than in other places I have been.  And I couldn’t help but think one thing as I drove by those houses. 

Political expression is not something that should be stigmatized.  People should be able to express themselves and a political party of their choosing without ridicule and harassment.  However, Democrats are well known for harassing those who don’t believe the same things they do—so based on their behavior, when you see other people supporting Democrats vocally, with yard signs and bumper stickers all over their cars, it paints a universally obvious picture.  As I drove by all those homes outside of Cleveland and saw all the Harris signs, I couldn’t help but think one thing based on my experience with those people: they must be stupid.  Anybody consciously voting for Kamala Harris had to be stupid. There isn’t any other explanation for it.  Oddly enough, many of the homes I saw with Harris signs in them, or Sherrod Brown were large homes with a lot of property, so how could such stupid people afford such large houses?  The answer is that most of those people work or somehow benefit from significant government growth, and I don’t tend to view those kinds of jobs as legitimate.  They may be in well-paid occupations, but the type of people in those jobs are often parasites and not the most industrious.  So, of course, they supported a big looting government filled with stupid people who collectively gathered together as an oppressive force to confiscate the wealth of the hard-working and buy themselves big houses that they would put Biden/Harris signs in as registered Democrats.  But knowing what everyone now did about Kamala Harris, nobody with any brains could openly support someone like her, even under the persuasion of personal gain.  To support Kamala Harris for anything, the person must be stupid.

And as I drove by those homes, that’s all I could think of.  These weren’t the homes of people with any foundations in intelligence.  These were stupid people who needed big government to give their worthless lives meaning through force and power.  They were willing to overlook all the problems we have seen with Biden, for which Kamala Harris, an open Marxist, was the vice president.  It takes a conscious decision to put a yard sign out for display in favor of a political candidate.  And I’ve seen them in great abundance over the years on all sides.  So, we’re not talking about accepting the free expression of rival political parties here. Instead, we are just talking about dumb people who need the power of government to compensate for their sheer stupidity.  Anybody voting for Kamala Harris had to be stupid.  That was my only thought as I drove in and around Cleveland.  It wasn’t just an expression of personal gain.  It was an expression of stupidity.  Kamala Harris supporters had to be stupid.  There was no other explanation for it.  To support any Democrats is a stupid idea.  But Kamala Harris is now well known for her stupidity, and with those facts in mind, people still willingly put out yard signs in her favor in Ohio.  So it wasn’t a matter of respecting their opinion for a political belief.  But it was instead an expression of stupidity that they wished to declare to the world.  For whatever reason, they felt a need to declare to the world that stupidity for all to see.  And to do it boldly as their conduct would be forgiven for using government as a leverage against sanity. 

Of course, there were plenty of Trump signs, too.  And I was surprised to see a lot of signs in this region for Bernie Moreno.  It was encouraging to see just how many, and compared to past years, there was a lot more Trump support than I’ve seen in the past.  Knowing the kind of people who are so stupid to vote for Kamala Harris, likely the homes with signs in them are government employees such as school teachers and worthless bureaucrats in government industry.  It used to be that being a school teacher was a respected occupation, but these days, it paints a picture of an overpaid, overweight slob teaching Marxism to the next generation and demanding a fortune for the effort.  They aren’t intelligence representatives just because they are in the teaching profession.  And they reiterate that fact with their voting record.  The people with a Harris sign in their yard are government looters, not hard-working capitalists.  They are benefactors of Karl Marx’ class-based society and they vote for government power because their worthless lives would have nothing if not for such a monstrosity of imposition against personal conduct as they utilize for their benefit.  It’s not like those people with such large homes gained them through genius in business.  They obtained them through the force of government to steal through others with taxes and to benefit the lazy and stupid with large incomes they don’t deserve.  And because they are stupid, they were audacious in displaying their support for a candidate as flawed as Kamala.  Because only someone stupid could vote for a person who is so dumb, it’s not a matter of respecting different opinions.  It’s simply overlooking sheer stupidity in the face of reality and witnessing an arrogance that is out of step with the future the way that only dumb people would find appropriate.  And as hard to believe as it is, there are supporters for Kamala Harris.  And those that are can only be explained to be that way because they are stupid.

Nobody Wants Beta Men, Not Even Women: The disaster left behind by progressive Democrats and their plots of doom

Trump was hilarious at the Al Smith Dinner in 2024 by calling various men from the Democrat party essentially women, and people laughed because they knew the truth.  Even women.  This whole women’s rights thing has been a disaster.  Not that we should treat women unfairly and not allow them to vote and own property, but in the more subtle strategy of destroying the American family.  There are a lot of things coming undone in 2024, and this issue of wokeness and robbing society of extraordinary women and powerful women is being rejected as we speak, and Trump gets that trend.  He played on it with jokes that were more than true, making them funny and a forbidden subject that has been taboo in our society.  When Trump told Chuck Schumer, with him sitting right next to him during the speech, that Chuck might still get a chance to be the first woman president, the joke became the highlight of the evening and more than a little bit true.  This discussion has mainly emerged during the campaign season of 2024, with Democrats digging in on toxic masculinity by exhibiting Doug Emhoff, Kamala’s husband, as an example of what the 21st-century man should be.  But as the Harris campaign moved in that direction, people started doing some digging and found out that Kamala’s husband had been naughty to women, treating them in very scandalous ways, slapping them, and forcing them to flirt with him at his law practice.  This brings up the secret behind the entire Democrat party: they often present a public profile to hide what they do in public.  And by talking about toxic masculinity, they hope that the low-information voter will overlook all their evil actions.  Just as they have done with Tampon Tim, the proposed vice presidential candidate for Kamala Harris, as he has promoted tampoons in men’s bathrooms but trying to get the public to think of him as a hunter and gun rights advocate.  Democrats are liars who use politics and the power that comes from it to mask their intention to abuse other people and commit crimes. 

The creation of the beta male has been very destructive for the human race.  Men are typically physically more robust, so fighting with each other tends to be more literal.  Men are quick to anger; they might have a vicious fight in a parking lot, but they get over things quickly and can often become fast friends with their enemies.  Women, though, are more psychological.  Since they don’t have physical strength, they have developed mind games, which often mystifies men.  And that has been going on for many thousands of years.  However, once progressive society encouraged women to enter the workplace, to attack the American family, American business, and the essential structure of how humans engage with each other, what has happened has brought everyone a lot of dissatisfaction, which is lingering behind this current political movement.  Women like men for what men do for them, and men like women for what they do for them.  And that was fine somewhat until progressive in the form of the modern Democrat party, coming straight from the manipulators at the World Economic Forum, started telling people that men can be women, and women, men depending on how they felt that day, and they screwed up everything.  That attitude has also shown up in the workplace.  When people have to do business with each other, there is much less directness than there used to be, making doing business much less effective.  Too few people say what they mean, making it hard to get anything done. 

This poison was purposeful, of course.  However, people in their workplaces are tired of the effects, and the change in attitude toward what the Democrat platform has deeply committed itself to results from massive dissatisfaction.  Yet the Democrats behind Kamala Harris are tone-deaf to it.  They are committed to the communist cause and can see no other way.  That plan meant that toxic men who might stand up to the communist push needed to be removed and replaced in business, politics, and life in general with more people like Doug Emhoff and fewer like Donald Trump. It hasn’t worked out the way it was intended, but the Democrats keep giving us more of them, only to have society laugh at the results.  That’s why Trump said what he said at the Al Smith Dinner; he understands what people think.  Just as when he said on Access Hollywood about women, it was the kind of locker room talk people want to engage in.  Because there is truth in it, men talk about women in superficial ways because that is how they are wired biologically to interact with them.  Women want deeper meanings and can often find they can easily manipulate men to their advantage.  Over thousands of years, we have all developed checks and balances on that power, which Trump understands all too well and has exhibited many times over.  And the dumb people thought Trump talking about grade-A female genitalia were assuming that the progressive mind control message would overcome biology, and that turned out to be a complete disaster.  People being polite entertained those woke rules until they saw what they did to the world around them.  And now they are changing their mind.  But rather than adapting to those observations, Democrats have dug in. 

Turning men into betas has been catastrophic because now nobody tells the truth about anything.  Every interaction has turned passive-aggressive because all fighting has become a kind of sissy-slapping contest.  One thing that Democrats have not looked in the mirror yet to admit to themselves is that Trump is the choice of people who want masculinity to be back in society, especially in leadership positions.  I remember seeing Trump at Tea Party events around 2010 when a small crowd of people who loved his Art of the Deal books would show up to hear him speak.  Back then, much of this progressive woke stuff wasn’t known about its impact on everyone’s lives.  Trump didn’t suddenly arrive on the scene with thousands of people waiting all day to see him.  He became that way because he offered himself up as an alternative to the nonsense of the new beta male rules given to us by vile Democrats who want to destroy the world as we know it.  And we like our world; we like women; we like men; we like tough people; and we like leaders.  We don’t want cry babies who cry their eyes out over a caterpillar squashed on the sidewalk.  We don’t like men who take off for maternity leave.  I say to other men daily, “Did you have the baby?  Your wife did.  You need to get back to work and be a man.  Be tough.”  Work when you’re not feeling well.  Lead when you’d rather take a nap because you are too tired.  Be brutal when it’s hard because people count on you to fight when they are too weak to do it themselves.  And as to these beta males, women don’t want them.   Nobody wants them.  And that was never going to be a thing.  Beta men make the world far worse.  The world doesn’t need where everyone fights like a bunch of women.  Because then, nothing will get done.

What We Learned From the ILA Strike: We need more automation and robots to do the work that lazy people won’t do

Most things that are wrong in our modern economy is the fault of communism; it’s the process of thinking that comes from the ridiculously stupid philosophy of Karl Marx.  And that’s precisely what the International Longshoremen’s Association was during a recent strike, raw communism.  When it comes to these unions, notice they always start with “international.”  These are not American efforts rooted in capitalism.  They are globalist enterprises.  A few weeks ago, the dockworkers at ports of entry for shipping all along the east coast down into the Gulf along Texas walked off the job, which essentially crippled American infrastructure and it was all over pay.  This forced the shipping companies to throw a lot of money at those losers to prevent a complete halt of our economy, which amounted to an average of 4 dollars per hour for each six-year contract with an opportunity to raise wages by 62% over the life of the contract, which previously had an upward pay scale of $39 per hour or 81K per year.  And that is on straight time.  In truth, many of these people are making 300K per year once they had the overtime before this strike, so these dock workers are getting rich off an extortion racket that is essential to the American infrastructure and economy.  Their malicious timing was to perform this strike while a weak president, Joe Biden, was sleeping on the beach before Trump’s next term. They took advantage of the situation while they could and put everyone at risk with a hostile attack on our supply chain. It was reprehensible on a good day and detrimental in their intent and malice.  Fortunately, people learned pretty quickly what the leaders of the strike were up to; they were living in mansions and were not hurting for money for a job that wasn’t that skilled.  In the vacuum of a communist bubble, they had thought themselves something better than what they were, and they took advantage of America for their benefit, and it’s disgusting. 

I don’t like union workers of any kind on a good day.  I think they are worthless slugs rooted in Marxist ideology and have no place in American society.  I know these days, many union workers are breaking away from their leadership and voting for Trump for president, which makes us all friendly under a big tent of politics these days.  But it doesn’t change what they are.  Trump has successfully dealt with unions as a builder, and if you have a good personality, you can deal with reasonable people. Most of the time, union workers think they are doing right.  They don’t think of themselves as communists or detriments to society.  However, as a mob of insurgents who threatened to take away the need for labor if they didn’t collectively get what they wanted, everything they were was born on the pages of Karl Marx.  I think it should be illegal and punishable with years in jail to walk off a job that is critical to American economic infrastructure.  If I didn’t know the teaching profession was so worthless, I’d associate that field with the same sentiment.  But teacher unions have made themselves worthless with their brand of Democrat politics baked into everything they do, which is useless to a conservative family with children attending a school.  From top to bottom, there is no place for communism in our labor force, and the ILA didn’t care.  They wanted to take advantage of desperate people to extract even more money from the process while political disorder was a raging fire.  And what they did will cost us a lot more money in terms of shipping costs.

I don’t respect these ILA workers or most union jobs.  I have seen firsthand how unions destroy a company, and I have been in many fist fights in parking lots myself for breaking strikes in what they call a SCAB.  I, for the fun of it, made a living breaking strikes, one at a company in Cincinnati called Cincinnati Milacron, which is no longer there because of radicalized unions, and a company that built conveyor belts in the 90s for Amazon, well before anybody knew what Amazon was.  I was never one to join with group behavior, and when I disagreed with the behavior, the union stewards wanted to fight, which they regretted.  Many people from my past are ashamed of what they did and what I did to them, just to put it nicely.  I could tell stories about some of these antics that sometimes got bloody for quite a long time.  So, my hatred for these labor unions runs very deep.  To say I hate them isn’t a strong enough word.  But I do have much experience as a blue-collar worker, and I’ve watched the crane operations at the shipping docks who just went on strike, and I can say that it’s an easy job.  Certainly not worth 300K per year.  I’ve done lots of comparable work with cranes and jigs with very expensive hardware, and while it takes some skill to operate, it’s not worth the kind of money these unions extract for it.  They are only paid so much because companies fear through radicalism that all the workers will collectively leave their jobs and cause a work stoppage.  Even though Trump has successfully dealt with unions, everyone who has dealt with them can’t hide the fact that collective bargaining agreements harm enterprises by making them too expensive or taking too much time to do the task.  And very little good comes from a unionized workforce. 

One of those stories I could tell involved three union stewards who thought they were tough guys and wanted to fight me in an empty parking lot near our plant at 3 PM when the first shift ended.  I guess they didn’t think I’d show up, and let me say politely, they didn’t win.  The whole plant showed up to watch the fight, which was very embarrassing for the union stewards.  And that particular plant, once management figured out that the union couldn’t be dealt with, shut down within six months.  I knew it then, and I know it especially now: unions had no place in America, and they were dying.  And that is certainly true today.  Already, robots could do a much better job than many of the crane operators working these docks, and they never call off work or get sick.  Labor in an economy is always needed, but that labor doesn’t need to be a human.  It needs to be intelligent, and with A.I. these days, they are far more intelligent than these dock worker slugs.  I’ve known them from personal experience, and believe me, if you pay them more than $10 an hour, you are paying them too much.  Unions have made themselves worthless, which is the case with the ILA strike.  It only lasted a few days, but it shouldn’t have happened at all.  I would encourage all those companies involved in shipping to invest in robots for their future work.  And don’t waste your time on these slugs that affect our economy.  There is no reason these days to overpay for labor and to throw money at these people.  The ILA strike broke once people realized how much money these employees made.  America was not sympathetic.  They just wanted their stuff shipped to them to arrive.  Globalism has given these international unions leverage through a monopoly status.  And it’s time we change that, for good, with automation and robotics.
