The Hidden Benefit of ‘Godzilla Minus One’: Understanding Budgets and Costs Imposed by organized labor and anti-capitalist Activities

There is another essential attribute of the new Godzilla film, Godzilla Minus One, at the heart of the global populist movement that is important to talk about.  Probably the most important thing in the world that has lingered always in the background and is now apparent for all to see.  In talking about how good Godzilla Minus One is, the obvious question everyone has is how could Japan produce a movie like this when the same kind of blockbuster produced by Disney in America would cost 300 million dollars.  The average moviegoer could watch Godzilla Minus One, Indiana Jones, and the Dial of Destiny and think they are of the same quality in every category: acting, special effects, music, writing, scale of production, everything.  So how was Godzilla Minus One so profitable, whereas all the current Hollywood productions or movies anywhere in the world these days, especially where the financial influence of the World Economic Forum has its hands in the production, are not able to compete?  Well, this is something I have been talking about for many decades and I said this was going to happen to the film industry for many years.  Unionized labor has destroyed the financial models of movie production, shown dramatically when a foreign film like Godzilla Minus One is shown in a movie theater along with the latest blockbusters produced by Hollywood and other markets.  Because of many market conditions unique to recovery from COVID lockdowns, theater owners are desperate to show anything that the public might want to see.  Just two or three years ago, a movie like Godzilla Minus One would not have played in a movie theater in the United States.  People would never see it, but in today’s market, where Hollywood products can’t keep up with demand, a movie like Godzilla Minus One gets a chance to be seen, which has burst down the door to an issue that can only be revealed by direct competition.   

Much of the way we are told about success in the world has been shaped by labor unions attached to the film industry, the mainstream media, and government reporting.  The ultimate solution to broken budgets and general performance everywhere in the world, no matter the product, is to make labor unions illegal, especially in government work and situations that prevent a competitive environment.  America has gone through just this sort of thing when it comes to the car industry, or most sectors of manufacturing that can’t compete with cheap foreign labor.  Well, it is not that the labor is cheap in foreign markets, but instead that the communist labor unions, all of which were formed out of elements of Marxism, have driven up the cost of labor not just in the increases in headcount but in how much each one actually costs.  When the government reports the numbers, as they do in American and European markets, of course, they will give a spin that suits them, not necessarily one that is reflected in reality.  Then, when the trade journals are either in unions themselves or are very sympathetic, the coverage has been how much studios spend on movies to make, not on their quality.  This has certainly been the case with Disney where to satisfy their radical employee base, all connected to labor unions, the approach has been to just outrun the costs, which have crippled them in 2023.  When it costs 500 million dollars to get a blockbuster out the door and into a theater, disaster is not far behind.  For a lot of these Hollywood productions, a movie budget to satisfy all the labor demands that you see at the end credits of every motion picture, 200-300 million on actually making the movie, then another 200 million in marketing to feed the machine, a film has to make a billion dollars at the box office to get into a profit category, and that just isn’t realistic, as Disney has discovered in 2023. 

Then, to make matters worse, these Disney movies have been loaded with content people don’t want to see.  The filmmaking has been lazy, and the product is lackluster when it gets to the screen.  It shows when all the people making the movie are only in it to get paid.  A film like Godzilla Minus One was created by hungry filmmakers full of passion, evident in what ended up on the screen, shocking many people.  But this is the exact reason why government reforms never happen and why budgets get wrecked in all production environments where Marxist labor unions have driven up costs and taken away the ambition of good merit from the products they produce, such as in public education in America that has become useless to most people for all the same reasons.  The labor costs too much and doesn’t do enough of what it’s supposed to.  When labor unions take over the management of an endeavor, they determine the pay rate and how many people need to be involved in the process, which then blows up all the financial attributes.  In a situation like this, where a side-by-side comparison isn’t usually available, the problem becomes apparent in the movie industry.  But this same rot is in just about every endeavor that involves money and financing, even in American intelligence agencies.  I will have some serious horror stories to provide about the CDC and how President Reagan was thinking of cutting the entire department, giving rise to Dr. Fauci’s radicalism.  Most bad things happen when lazy people seek funding not based on performance but emotion, such as fear of a new virus that can be manufactured in a lab and released from Wuhan, China.  That’s a topic all its own. 

The trick in hiding all this from the public has been to control the narrative, and the labor unions have been attached to most of the reporting.  But in 2023, because the declining Hollywood product has most abused theater owners, they have had to turn to direct competition to survive, which has set up this obvious matchup.  The same occurred when the Japanese entered the car market, and the Big Three in America found they could not compete in cost and quality because unionized labor took away competitive factors that could keep the costs down for the consumer.  Most of the problems in the world, including the CRs that Speaker Johnson is trying to work through Congress to keep the government open, are due to the outrageous costs of supporting all those expensive government employees.  Even the funding of Ukraine, which has been a topic, is to spend billions of dollars to pay for the massive administrative state government there to support this globalist employment structure.  All of them are failing under their weight; what they do for the world isn’t worth the money it costs to keep them.  Populism is rising everywhere because people would rather see Godzilla Minus One than the latest holiday offering by Disney and the other major studios.  The labor unions seek to destroy competition to justify their outrageous costs and sluggish performance.  But because of their actions, they have forced competition to overtake them to satisfy the market demands of a hungry public that wants to see a good movie, buy a nice car, or have a government that works for them and doesn’t get in the way of what society needs.  I know we are in a time when union supporters are moving toward Trump, and Trump is pro-union, and it’s not as much of a political issue for Republicans as it has been or should be.  But when you want to know why things are so expensive, why so many useless people perform the work, and how they keep their jobs underperforming constantly, the source is the Marxist labor unions that have embedded themselves in the process.  Where they aren’t, the quality and profit improve dramatically.  And if we are ever going to drain the swamp, the government unions will have to be made illegal.  And any future budget controls taken out of their hands, from the local public school to the control of the FBI and CIA.  Organized labor has destroyed them all.

The Strategy of Making People Look Crazy: Or to drive them crazy in the process

There’s another arraignment at 9 AM on December 18th for Darbi Boddy, just for going to Lakota school board meetings as an elected representative.  You can see how ridiculous the case against her has been by Judge Lyon’s recent filing, trying to drive the point further for his client Isaac Adi from any public criticism, which is utterly ridiculous.  The first arraignment was to have occurred just after Thanksgiving 2023, but the judge, as all judges in Butler County, would have to because of the power of Isaac’s attorney, who is a long-standing common pleas judge, had to be delayed.  The Ohio Supreme Court then had to appoint a neutral judge.  So, of course, we are dealing with legal gymnastics that assumes that an abuse of legal authority comes by hiring a judge to process a case in which we are to believe that Darbi Boddy is such a threat to the Lakota school board that Isaac is terrified and is seeking help from the courts.  As ridiculous as all that is, Darbi is facing a potential of 6 months in jail and in the thousands of dollars in fines, not to mention the extraordinary legal fees.  Darbi’s first attorney has stepped aside and now there is a new one as this case continues to drag on for what would appear to be frivolous reasons on the surface.  But I’ve seen this tactic before, and it has a deeper meaning, as dumb as that reason might be.  It’s a strategy I have seen happen to men and women over many decades, primarily women.  I’m surprised Judge Lyons would participate as he has spent time around me and shown interest in constitutional individualism.  But then again, there are many like him over the years who have simply wanted to fit in, and in the dark places of their minds, resent individualists like Darbi Boddy so much, that they turn to the mechanisms of collectivism to exert a social control that drew them to the acquisition of power in the first place. 

There is nothing about the Darbi Boddy case that is legally correct, it’s a clear abuse of authority that started with attorneys for Lakota schools pulling the strings behind the scenes to get rid of Darbi as a school board member, for lots of reasons.  Most involve having a puppet school board easily controlled for upcoming labor negotiations with the teacher’s union.  Darbi, like President Trump, is a threat to that old order. Her prosecution is a clear message not to mess with these public unions, judges’ networks of brotherhoods, and bar associations.  There is a reason that weak people seek comfort in brotherhoods; it’s for the power they feel they can only get from group assimilation.  So what we have going on all over the country, especially at Lakota schools, is individualism against collectivism and the merits of those philosophies to public government.  But this didn’t all start with Darbi in 2023; this action against her is a common strategy and has occurred frequently over the years. It has occurred in over 20 women I have known.  Many started just like Darbi Boddy, young and in their 40s, raising children, attending church, finding the world’s evils repugnant, and wanting to do something about it.  But in the process of the fight against that system, the common strategy of collectively based villainous characters is to attempt to capture the definition of sanity and use it to make their opponents look insane or to drive them insane with the audacity of evil that is presented to them.  So far, Darbi Boddy has held up well over the last few years.  But adding all this up over a decade or two takes its toll, and the results are usually terrible.

I don’t think she would mind, but I normally keep these things quiet; I would call Judge Edelsten a friend, she is the person who had trouble in the Butler County courts that involved lots of legal issues with many of the same judges that are involved in the Darbi Boddy case, which is why she comes to my mind.  And she won her cases, just as Darbi should win all of hers.  But the cost to her has been enormous, and the system participants have built it that way.  The best way to explain what happens to these women, again men too, such as Roger Reynolds, the former auditor of Butler County, or Thomas Hall, the current Representative in Ohio, is that there is a network that protects itself from vivacious characters that drew them to power in the first place.  But specifically with women, some of them are now in their 70s and have been fighting the same corruption for over thirty years, and it wears them out.  They end up with their kids grown and hateful; their husbands usually end up running off with other women, women who are less politically active and much easier to make happy, and they end up alone, bitter, and angry.  And people like these Butler County judges know that their cases have little legal merit, but their control over the law can drive people crazy.  A good example would be when a man is looking to cheat on his wife with another woman, and he attempts to portray the effort by telling everyone how crazy his wife is so that he can justify the abandonment of his marital vows.  When collectivists attack individuals, they always turn toward manipulating public opinion so they can show themselves as the victim, which is the entire legal strategy behind the Darbi Boddy legal cases.  It’s the system looking to divorce Darbi by making her look like the crazy wife.  And if she’s not crazy today, fighting a corrupt system might make her and her friends turn out that way.

That’s not to say that fighting back against the system is a worthless gesture.  I would point to what’s happening in American politics with Trump against the never-Trumper movement as an example of this behavior over many years catching up to them.  Sure, there have been a lot of casualties. Some of the women I mentioned are now very bitter old ladies who never tasted justice even though technically they won in court.  The sheer evil of the systems they fight rots them from the inside out.  But along the way, the exposure of this vast evil has turned the public against it.  So, no matter how far down the well the Butler County courts attempt to attach themselves to yet another example of judicial activism to take out a political opponent using a corrupt court system to do it, the public is turning away from those kinds of abuses of power, because they are tired of it.  They see what has been going on all along.  I tell those older women that I’m thinking of, as their kids have grown up, to hate them for their crusades of justice, and for what, to eventually win a victory in the court of public opinion several decades later, that it was all worth it.  Their men would have left them for younger women anyway.  And kids often must learn life lessons from the totality of a life, not just the little kid years where a mom was a good mom because they gave them a popsicle from the freezer while watching their favorite show on television.  As Darbi Boddy is experiencing in real-time, most collective-based organizations, whether it’s the Lakota school board, the local attorneys, the judges, the political RINOs, or the Freemasonry network, that all the people join those memberships to gain power over their fear of individual merit.  Which is the root cause of much of what’s wrong in the world.  And in the end, the victory is worth it.  Even if it costs a lot to get there.

2024 is Time for Harvest: Separating Good from Evil

As romantic of a notion as conspiracies might be, and they are, ultimately, many of the dark rituals to come from the following of astrology were related to the acquisition of food, such as knowing when it was time for harvest and preparing for the upcoming winter. And specifically to food supply, the production of wheat, and its use in the human diet. We forget these days just how stressful it was to wake up every day and figure out where your food would come from because food is an assumption for us in these modern times. It’s easy for us and in all varieties. But for thousands of years, right up until around 100 years ago, food was a very stressful problem, even for the rich and famous. So nurturing a good crop of wheat to the harvest was a significant undertaking, and it’s why such societies were able to make judgments of good and bad more directly because, literally, their food supply depended on value judgments just to survive. This is what the Parable of the Weeds is all about in Matthew 13:24-29 when Jesus said, “The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.” Jesus essentially said to let the weeds grow with the wheat and not try to pull them up together; otherwise, you will destroy your crop in the process. Jesus was talking about tares, which are weeds, and specifically darnel, which looks like wheat during the early stages of growth. In this case, the best way to save your crop would be to separate the weeds from the crop at harvest time, not necessarily during the growth of the good wheat. And under such a metaphor, we can look at our times and say, “It’s time for the harvest.”

Can’t let the weeds sink roots

We have allowed a lot of weeds to grow in our culture, largely out of compassion, because we live in a time when perhaps we thought we could let everything grow together. That we could co-exist with evil and that demands on our survival would not be challenged. But that was incorrect. Instead, we have allowed many weeds to take over our gardens of life and now we cannot separate good and evil so easily. Like the darnel, evil looked a lot like good, and now their roots have intertwined together as parasites threatening to kill the host crop if we were to attempt to remove those weeds as they have been growing. And like the darnel, the weeds looked like the wheat we wanted, so we left it alone to grow, unmolested. This is the problem with having a society that does not cast value judgments on the wicked and estranged intellect. Letting a multitude of terrible menaces grow into a healthy society has destroyed our culture and stunted its growth outrageously. Of course, we took it for granted because we have lost touch with the necessity of using value judgments for survival. We have entertained this fantasy that we could all get along if only we respected each other’s place in the garden. Yet in so doing, we have only harmed what’s good and allowed what’s evil to perpetuate and grow in strength, leaving our only means of dealing with such a problem to a hope that everything might survive until a harvest.

We have a lot of darnel in our society

I would point to the year 2024 and the re-election of Trump as the harvest time of our present generation.  Of course, the weeds who have been surviving as parasites of the good will have great anxiety as the intentions of the harvest are revealed, the separation of the wheat from the weeds.  The darnel of our culture, which is vast and in many forms, knows that their time as parasites is ending, and they are naturally terrified.  After all, they are a lifeform too, and they were created to be parasites living off the good, to disguise themselves to even look like the wheat of our desire so that we might not know what they are until it’s too late.  Until they are in our schools teaching children to be transexual maniacs and sexually obsessed losers.  Until our national deficit is over 34 trillion dollars, with 1 trillion added in the last business quarter of 2023.  That drugs would be sought after to numb our minds from the terrors we see, that hidden tyrannies hidden in our technology would give us no peace in seclusion.  The war against good and evil would turn everything we thought we could trust into a pitched-fork devil of ill intent.  Everywhere we look, we see weeds, and it’s so bad that we can no longer tell what is good for us or bad.  We can’t know the wheat for the weeds because, at this point, everything looks the same.  We have not tended to our gardens; we have let the weeds deceive us into thinking they were wheat, and we allow them to grow and wrap their roots around the roots of our good crop, daring us to pull them and, in so doing, to destroy everything we value.

But it’s harvest time, time to pull up everything, wheat and all.  It will be a messy process, but our fields must be cleared in the aftermath.  At that time, the darnel can be removed from the wheat, and we can distinguish value from the parasites.  Because we have yet to separate the weeds from our garden early in the process, the field has become overgrown, and there are more weeds than wheat.  So we have quite a mess to deal with.  But once the job is done, we have a clear field, and we have determined the wheat from the darnel, separating the good from the bad, we’ll have a chance to start over.  We nurture our crops by keeping the weeds out of our garden before they wrap their roots around what we value.  Always after harvest, when we see our clean fields and a healthy food supply, can perspective begin to bring sanity to our concerns.  And when it does, we must protect our wheat from infancy and not let evil wrap around our values to feed off them for its sustenance.  The weeds must be pulled before they can ever take root.  That is why we must tend our gardens and have value judgments on the good and the bad.  We must get rid of the bad before it matures into a parasite that is dangerous to the things we value, such as a food supply.  It is also in understanding such parables that evil wants to eradicate the Bible from a culture so that we can’t tell the difference, allowing evil to grow unmolested.  Such an idea was always a bad one, and during this time of harvest, one that we should never neglect again.  The Bible is full of such wisdom and has contributed to all productive human cultures.  And we’d be wise to listen before it’s too late.

An Amazon.com Pricebreak: A guidebook to capitalism to step out of the darkest period of American history

There is no shame in being good at what you do

I have had many of these over the last five years: super-secret meetings with people in the back of some restaurant or shooting range where people want to talk. Only this one was 30 or so people who were fans of my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business and they wanted a little private class on the subject matter. I get the secrecy; I think of it as enslaved people learning to read during the Underground Railroad Period. People want to learn how to improve themselves in a world that doesn’t want them to accomplish such a task. These people were Chamber of Commerce types and were concerned about other people knowing they were meeting with me because it was a social taboo. But I was happy to attend the event and give a talk, which everyone enjoyed. But during the Q&A section at the end I learned something from the class, that my book was being offered on Amazon.com for $4.59, which is practically giving it away. Normally, most of the sales that I see come from the publisher’s website, is $16.99. When I get the sales report, it usually has a long list with all kinds of prices shown, and some of the lower numbers I had thought were likely Kindle downloads. So, I didn’t pay much attention to them. But at this little seminar, a fan told me about it, and sure enough, the book was listed by Amazon at that very low price, so low that it’s likely cheaper than what it cost to make the book. Yet I wasn’t surprised upon hearing this; it didn’t make me angry. I think it was meant to make me angry, to be very insulting to me. But my reaction is one that I’ll share here: if you can get the book for a cheaper price, then I’m happy to let you know about it.

A pretty good price

I personally like Amazon; I get a lot of books through them. I also am a frequent visitor to bookstores all over southern Ohio, going as far north as Dayton and Columbus regularly to get books that I don’t want to wait for to arrive in the mail. I read three or four per week on average, so it’s a major priority for me to have access to new books. For books that I must have that afternoon, I go and get them at an actual bookstore, the old-fashioned way. And I prefer hard copies of books because I don’t like the bad guys out there to know what I’m reading or looking at on the internet, because I am watched by just about everyone who wastes time watching people. And the algorithms set against me are outrageously difficult, for getting visibility. I frequently get offers from IT people wanting to “fix” my foundation links because my Google score is so low that people searching for me don’t find me on the top picks because of all the blacklisting I am listed under. I typically say no to all those offers because most of them are likely the same people doing the damage, and they’d love for me to make it easier for them to rob the stagecoach. Amazon does not like me politically, and they’d love to make me feel that I’m at the bottom of a well nobody could hear me from. That is a common strategy for them, so I never expected a fair shake from Amazon. They offer the book because they are a prominent bookseller and want to say they offer such books. Even if they hate that people want to read from someone like me. So I put them out of my mind and never really took the time to see what they were selling my book for, or to check reviews because they set algorithms on their server against me that obviously were not encouraging. So, I put my mind elsewhere. The sales listings tell a different story, so much so that I didn’t even notice the Amazon pricing.

There will be a major shift in the economy over the next decade

The book has been out for a few years now, so I don’t read it every day. When I wrote it, I had been thinking about the contents for a while, but after Biden was put in the White House and Trump wasn’t there anymore, admittingly, I needed to take a break from the world for a few weeks. My wife and I took our RV out into the desert of New Mexico to escape Biden and the COVID protocols that were such a dark period in American history. I knew the economy would take a hit and that corporations had been seduced by this World Economic Forum view of the world and would need a guidebook out of their wokeness. So I wrote The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, applying my favorite sport, fast draw, with a genuine love of history. I enjoyed touring all the John Chism and Billy the Kid sites in Lincoln County during the winter of 2021, which had a lot of snow on the ground, even in that part of the world. It was a very revelatory experience for me, and it shows up in the book, which, looking back on it after a few years, is very good. Like I said, I read a lot. I have just finished a few books by Johan Norberg which I think are great, but they aren’t as good in my mind as my own book. Not just because it’s my book but because the contents are revolutionary compared to the large amounts of Marxism that have taken hold in all corporations around the world. I wrote the Gunfighter’s Guide to give people a weapon to fight against that trend, which turned out great.

A large worldview helps see things more clearly

The book as I thought it would be, has been a slow burn. It’s not one of those books that makes a splash and then fizzles out. When I wrote it, I was thinking of a book I love called The Machine That Changed the World, which is about Lean Manufacturing and is filled with many assumptions about a Marxist world without ever naming the beast. I wanted to write an antithesis to that which businesses could use to improve their situations without destroying their essential character. I have read many hundreds of business books, and most of them make it a point to declare their hatred and unfairness of capitalism, which is quite obvious in the Lean Manufacturing movement, which seeks to centralize power to the people and is antagonistic toward management, which is consistent with the labor union view of the world, which is always socialist in origin. In 2020, with Trump out of the office and the world on lockdowns, corporations thought the best strategy was to play along to get along. But after three years of the Biden economy now, people are looking for answers, and many of those answers only come from a source like mine, who has made it a point to declare the answers in spite of the social poison that wants all such voices to hide for their lives under a rock somewhere. My point was never to hide but to engage the enemy as they present themselves, like a gunfighter. Fight the villains in a dusty street and gun them down metaphorically for their intentional destruction of the world. And to be proud of it in the process. As I gave my presentation to that audience, I couldn’t help but reflect on how good the book was. I’m very proud of it; it has helped people who have read it and applied it. I don’t just reflect on the times of the gunfighters during American expansion but also look to the future with AI and improved technology. It’s more of an attitude than a reverence. But the world for the next few decades is going to move much more toward capitalism and away from socialism, and already many corporate leaders see the writing on the wall. And they were looking for a translation, so we were all meeting secretly, not for my sake, but for theirs. But if I learn of a price break everyone can take advantage of to get the book, I’m happy to share it. It doesn’t hurt my feelings in the least. I like seeing people getting it, finding inspiration, and achieving success. That is, after all, the best compliment I can get and why I wrote the book in the first place, for people to enjoy and be helped by. So the more people who have it, the better it is in my mind. And at that price, it makes it very easy for people. I can’t promise that the price will stay that way, but when I hear of a price break, I certainly will pass it along.

Diversity, equity and inclusion was always going to fail in business because it’s not rooted in real social value

The 400 Fools in San Francisco: Capitalism is Destroying Communism, and Xi Jinping knows it

It’s not at all surprising that there were 400 fools who attended the Xi Jinping summit at San Francisco with Joe Biden. Most corporations, as I have been telling everyone for years, have communist leanings, and for the many lazy executives in them, the trend of globalism was in their favor. A stable business climate controlled by the centralized state allowed them to look like smart people, without actually having to be very smart. To win in that game, you had to cozy up to the regime, do what they tell you like trained seals, and you’d be successful, or at least appear that way. That whole competition thing is not for those timid people. Capitalism is scary because so long as the communists were in charge, they could always say, “They told me to do it,” when the shareholders started to complain about lost revenue. So I don’t view the people in San Francisco pandering to Xi to be particularly important. Sure, some of the richest people in the world were there. Elon Musk was there to grovel in front of the communist dictator, but I didn’t see what a lot of people did in the meeting. Rather, I saw the end of a dying regime, in China, playing out the plans of many decades coming to a fizzle that wasn’t very spectacular. All the concepts of globalism were falling apart across the world, and China was trying to appear to their home country as if they had conquered the United States, and the fulfillment of their objectives had come to fruition. That is how the entire visit would play on state-run television in China. A groveling Joe Biden pandering to the power of the communist party. The red flags of communism lined the streets of one of the great American cities. Communism had conquered the West and the people there were subjugating themselves to its incredible power.

The electronic voting machines have lots of problems.

Joe Biden’s behavior wasn’t surprising either. After all, he would not be president if not for Xi Jinping. China currently put Biden in office and the direct payments were part of the discussion. The Biden crime family had become wealthy over the years, selling access to their elected offices, and China knew what they were doing when they put the hapless old man in the White House to get rid of Trump. They didn’t like Trump’s trade deals, so they showed the power of China by inserting a complete buffoon in Trump’s place, displaying control over American elections and the people’s pick. China was almost daring anybody to do anything about what they did in 2020, first by releasing COVID-19 to lock down the world, then at the end of the year, the part they played to rig the election. For those who have not been paying attention, the electronic voting machine case is finally starting to get some traction. As I said in 2020, these cases often take years to put together, and part of the crime was to outpace the slow American legal system. That was part of the election theft, to move faster than the courts could process and China was clearly in on it. They have a lot to explain, about direct tampering with voting machine results and how Covid escaped from a Wuhan lab in the first place. But the voting machines were not the only form of election fraud. Just a big part of it. How does anybody think that people like Xi Jinping stay in power? Not by honest elections, that’s for sure. People don’t want to believe that rigged elections have been part of the American system, but the evidence is obvious that it has. And that China has played a significant role, even to the point of showing off, which Xi was doing in San Francisco.

I think it’s highly possible Trump will win every state.

But it’s not what it appears to be. China’s primary concern was that the world was turning away from them and that a serious decoupling effort was underway to separate the two economies, not to strengthen the relationship. And by inviting those 400 fools, tech leaders we always hear about in the news, CEOs from BlackRock, State Street, Vanguard, and Apple might do something to stop the trend. But they were part of the problem, and they had their issues in a free market society. Most of the damage they had conducted in the social awareness vacuum. And those days are over. People know what Larry Fink has done with his buddies at the World Economic Forum, and the pitchforks are out in America. There is going to be hell to pay in more ways than one in the coming years, and the protection of big-state communism won’t be able to hide them. Supply chains in America are realizing the liability of partnerships with China, with all the games on exports that go on, the trouble in dealing with communist labor unions on the West Coast that strike every five seconds and slow down the loading and unloading of cargo to and from China. Let’s just say that the labor advantages of dealing with China are no longer as enticing. They may have a lot of hard-working people that don’t blow up your budget, but the politics of dealing with China is ridiculously cumbersome, and slow. And people are moving on, finding other ways of dealing with supply chain necessities.

Game over for global communism

Which is what I saw in the body language of Xi.  I saw a worried dictator who knew the game was up.  Trump obviously saw it, too, in comments that followed.  Trump knows he’s going to have to deal with Xi as president soon, so he is already setting up the negotiating table for leverage.  But Xi knows this is the last year of Chinese rule.  The election fraud had given them a lovely puppet, but the American people didn’t follow him, leaving everyone exposed in the process and leaving those 400 fools in attendance with eggs on their faces.  A furious world is headed their way.  Election fraud won’t be so easy this time around.  Of course, they will try because they have no other way of winning.  They had been planning this communist push for years, and this was all they were getting out of it.  Global communism had failed and people were turning away everywhere, especially in the United States, and state visits like this in San Francisco were not going to fix everything, because it was all smoke and mirrors, to begin with.  Sure, they showed the world they could put Joe Biden in office and control the American political system with honey pots and payoffs.  But what did they get for it?  The American people were not bending their knees to the communists, and they had no intention of ever doing it.  And the big American corporations showed they had little power over people’s fundamental beliefs.  It was a disaster, a nightmare for them.  And it was their last gasp before the tables turned, and the world got a lot harder for all of them.  Because communism is dead, free markets would force validity, making all the corporations that had bought into the communist plot vulnerable to destruction.  And so it went; the show in San Francisco fell flat and sputtered to a close with the grim reality of what is to become of all of them.  And they deserve everything they have coming.

‘The Capitalist Manifesto’ by Johan Norberg: Admitting to the only economic system that helps people the most

The change of view of economic fundamentals from the political left

After reading Johan Norberg’s book The Capitalist Manifesto: Why the Global Free Market Will Save the World, I’ll admit to a substantial flood of satisfaction. I mean this wasn’t Ayn Rand, it was a kind of Ikea view of capitalism, but the message was quite clear. I’ve read other books by Johan Norberg and he’s pretty good for what I’d consider a lefty. He’s conservative by European standards, but in America, we have very different ideas of what a liberal is. But to Johan, a liberal means less restriction in market economies in a region that has always been about tyranny, the tyranny of the church, the tyranny of some maniacal king, or secret societies trying to undo everything in the background. The lunatic Karl Marx conceived in Europe the birthplace of socialism and communism. I would never have read the book if I hadn’t seen Elon Musk recommend it. I’m not a fan of Elon Musk. I want him to do well with SpaceX. He makes a good car, but he’s not my idea of a good leader. But he is the richest person in the world, and I have thought it interesting to watch him grow his political perspective to accommodate his needs to move humanity into space and set up a colony on Mars. He has learned quite ostentatiously that a socialist Biden government with Barack Obama still whispering in his ear is never going to get Musk where he wants SpaceX to go. It takes too long to obtain permits, and the Department of Labor constantly harasses him because Musk doesn’t allow unionized labor to manage his manufacturing facilities. So Musk has evolved over time and seems to have fully embraced capitalism now in ways that are pace setting. There are a lot of very interesting observations in The Capitalist Manifesto that are quite delicious and well worth talking about. I think it may be one of the most important books of 2023, and it is undoubtedly impactful to the world’s current circumstances.

A very important book

I’ve been talking about this kind of stuff for many years so the change in tone is not lost on me.  What The Capitalist Manifesto is by Norberg is a confession intended for liberals to read that undoes over a century of lunacy in following Karl Marx.  This is not a book intended for the MAGA crowd in America but the many socialists and communists around the world who still are trying to work The Communist Manifesto into political sustainability.  I remember how vicious that media, in general, was when I worked with the producers of the movie Atlas Shrugged to get the message out about their film version of the Ayn Rand books that were famous around the world but were labeled conspiracy theories of the radical right.  So this Johan Norberg confession is no small matter.  It wasn’t written for me or the fans of Ayn Rand, it was written to the college liberal, the Keynesian economist and the diabolical politician getting rich off the Swamp and all its globalist mechanisms.  Norberg has figured out something that the political left has been very slow to admit to: socialism of any kind doesn’t work.  And it was never going to work, and that capitalism, by free people, the freer, the better, is the key to unlocking the powers of any economy.  This is a CATO Institute view of the world that offers a flood of statistics to show just how much better the world is because of capitalism than it is under any other kind of authoritarian approach.  Norberg presents a dizzying display of real-world examples that everyone needs to come to grips with because we now have enough data to make some sobering judgments.

The Capitalist Manifesto was Norberg trying to explain to global liberals that if they want globalism and if they’re going to fight populism, they had better embrace capitalism and do it quickly.  He’s certainly no fan of President Trump, who he sees as a threat to the global order because he’s a nationalist who wants to close the borders of America to outside influence, to turn in instead of migrating out.  But the impact of financial systems driven by political sentiments couldn’t be more obvious.  This book was a white flag from the radical leftist points of view that capitalism was the only solution to global problems such as poverty.  There is no other economic approach that has improved the lives of so many, and as if to solidify critical opinion about capitalism, Johan Norberg cites many instances where Bernie Sanders and Karl Marx himself admitted that capitalism is the best and only way to approach economic theory.  And to argue against any notion that centralized planning does anything but harm people economically and is a background contributor to many of life’s many miseries.  This was a book attempting to capture the MAGA message of free markets in America and stamp liberalism to it as if it was their idea all along.  Again, Norberg has kind of an Ikea view of the world; I wouldn’t call Sweden a bastion of capitalism.  They only look that way because the rest of Europe has the heavy fog of communism and socialism hanging over it in such a devastating way.  America has an expectation of freedom that Europe does not have.  But to even say the word “capitalism” in Europe is taboo, similar to saying that your father has a mistress or that mom is wearing red panties under her white dress to church.  Nobody has been willing to admit these secrets in public until now. 

As I closed the book, I realized I had just read something that would set the tone for the next several decades.  It was a victory in many ways that the enemies of the world understood that they would never win against capitalism.  And that even liberal-minded people like Musk and Norberg, who are poster children for the World Economic Forum, or at least had been until the realities of populism rising around the world forced them to look in the mirror and give up on Marxism wholesale.  The Capitalist Manifesto is not an American book.  I tried to buy a copy at my local Barnes and Noble, but they didn’t have it.  The book ships out of the United Kingdom, so we’re not discussing an American product trying to explain capitalism’s values to the world.  This is coming from a European perspective, where socialism was born and raised to the detriment of most of the world.  Johan Norberg understands that only capitalism has worked to solve many of the problems that Democrats and their many versions regionally are concerned with.  The only way to help people is to find a way to put more money in their pockets that doesn’t involve the government stealing it from people who have made money and giving it to people who were too lazy to work for it.  I can’t recommend this book enough; it’s an avalanche of admissions that culture must embrace.  And within its pages, we can see the future, where liberals are finally going to get on the side of conservatives because they must.  They may even try to steal capitalism as their own, which would be expected of them.  But whatever the case, the world will change for the better as a result, and things will look a whole lot different economically, in a good way, in the decades to come because of the admissions in this book.

The RINOs Who Helped Pass Issue 1 and Issue 2 in Ohio: Freedom of choice to hide the real evil hiding in the background

After more than 24 hours of review on why Issues 1 and 2 passed in Ohio, the right to kill babies and the pot head legalization measures that were passed by essentially the same margins on Election Night, November 7th, 2023, a clear pattern emerges which is wonderfully represented in the picture below. A guy I call Skippy, who has always loomed in the background of our county politics like a lot of people who think similarly, felt entitled to let me know after the election that he was a “freedom” Republican and that my view of the world was authoritarian. And that he voted for “freedom of choice.” And, of course, my response is that with Republicans like him, who needs Democrats? I live in a very conservative area, but I go to plenty of events, some with that guy, and they drink and smoke openly like a bunch of derelicts and quite honestly, it has always bothered me. I don’t encourage drinking and I certainly don’t smoke, anything. I don’t even take aspirin when I get a cold. I despise drugs and those who use them. So I’m not surprised by those kinds of comments, but it certainly isn’t a rationalization for why Issue 2, the legalization of marijuana in Ohio, passed. There are a lot of weak people in the world, and a lot of people who abuse various drugs, alcohol included who I think make the world a much worse place because of their weak politics. The people who put the abortion issue forward, the attackers of our state of Ohio with a lot of outside money reflecting progressive causes, knew the attack vector, and they know people like Skippy here will vote in their direction because they like their drugs. So they attached it to the baby-killing law and snuck it across the finish line. Sure, the Democrats are vile and evil. But so are many who call themselves Republicans because they have their vices, and the bad guys are always able to exploit them for the perpetuation of evil.

Freedom of choice is actually presented as the right to make bad choices that impact other people with the degradation of the aftermath

I warned everyone prior to the election, quite a few weeks ahead, that Issues 1 and 2 would pass with around 56% to 57% of the vote, which is exactly what happened. It was essentially the same margin as we saw in August when we tried to raise the threshold of the constitution to 60% over what it is now at 50+1 to add amendments to the Ohio Constitution. Outside radicals, after they lost Roe v. Wade, turned their progressive intentions toward the states and saw that Ohio had a weak threshold, so they attacked, and now we know the result. By the time Republicans noticed the vulnerability it was already too late. The bad guys put marijuana on the same ballot as abortion purposely in the same way that candy is placed along the checkout line, encouraging temptations for last-minute purchases. If Republicans weren’t so busy smoking and drinking, they might have noticed a long time ago the threat. But they got suckered and played because there are way too many liberals in the Republican party who are soft on all issues, so they water down the defense of truly ethical problems, keep their minds focused on business only, and maintain a socially soft stance on morality which lets vast amounts of evil flourish in the back door of our society. And they are quite proud of it, even haughty. But when it is wondered why abortion passed in Ohio, and how attackers of our state were able to gain so much support, thank your local RINOs for being lured to the dark side and helping evil seed itself into our great state, which is now an embarrassment.

Generally, my favorite places in the state voted my way; they did not support Issue 1 or 2 in the northwest, Midwest (such as Darke County), and all of southwest Ohio flowing over into the east. But Dayton, Columbus, and all of Cleveland and Akron flowing over to the Pennsylvania border and along the coast of Lake Erie voted to smoke dope and kill babies, and that’s not surprising. There are a lot of RINOs in those areas and certainly plenty of scum-bag Democrats who tend to run those liberal cities. And that’s how the margins became what they were, which voter turnout was higher than usual. If Trump had been on the ticket, the ratio might have been better for real conservatives. But as it was, it didn’t surprise me and was a shame to watch. Anyone pushing drugs in a culture of any kind is causing the degradation of intellect and the destruction of your society from within. It has nothing to do with “freedom” of choice. Such things are hidden behind popular sentiments to hide their intentions, which is essentially a military attack to destroy us from within. History is filled with compliant fools who drank their way toward personal destruction, and now can Cheech and Chong laugh at the social degradation that they have now let into our culture to be, as the Pink Floyd song says, “comfortably numb.” Meanwhile, while everyone is numb, they expect you to walk compliantly into a slaughterhouse with a smile on your face because you have your drugs to numb any thoughts you might have about your actual condition. Drugs are poison that are intended to destroy the enemy with evil; that is why they are encouraged in any society that the bad guys want to kill.

I would remind everyone upset about these baby killers and pot smokers that the best way to defeat them is not to follow the rules they create to frame the argument. I say it to people dozens of times a week, and it certainly applies here: never let your enemies define the rules you live by. Laws, often as they are put forth, are constructed for people with bad intentions to perpetuate some ill will behind government power. The abortion issue isn’t about whether or not a baby is a baby at 12 weeks or nine months. A killing is a killing and evil, the same evil that caused God to give Canaan to Abraham, and abortion is murder, and pot and other drugs are inventions to numb the guilt people feel when they live immoral lives and make bad choices. And that’s what RINO Republicans did when they joined vile Democrats to pass both Issue 1 and Issue 2. They have the right to choose, even if those choices are wrong. They want the right to be diabolical scumbags if they so choose, and they use ballot language to hide their narrative of choice behind the real intention of vice for the sake of sin. That’s always why these same types of people didn’t have moral convictions when it came to the Lakota problems, where administrators were displaying a tendency to have sex with children or teach students alternative sexual lifestyles. It’s all the same moral depravity, and there are plenty of Republicans who live lives filled with bad choices. And when you combine them with diabolical Democrats, you get 57% who will vote to kill babies and do drugs without fear of prosecution. Because they want “freedom of choice,” as some vile libertarian argues it. The choice to be a scumbag, the choice to be child molesters or sexual swingers desecrating their marriage covenant in the eyes of God, or dope addicts stoned to Pink Floyd songs. And if such bad decisions produce a baby with some unwanted sexual union, they want the ability to kill that baby to erase the mistakes they made so they are free to smoke, drink, and be wastes of human flesh in a world in solid need of intellect.

There is no Right-Wing in America: The various levels of accepting Karl Marx that destroys people from the inside out

For a lot of reasons this 2023 election has been contentious, but we must clear something up.  In America, there is no such thing as “the radical right.”  The political spectrum that so many people report, especially in the media, is all based on Karl Marx.  Karl Marx is the center position, and we measure everything off him.  When we talk about a political centralist, we are talking about Marx and people who have accepted various degrees of Marxism over time.  In America, we created our own definitions for things, most of which center around the Constitution, which was most displayed at the beginning of the country, such as Federalists and Anti-Federalists, which I most identify with.  And our American Constitution represented a right and left position to some extent.  But around the rest of the world, and what has been adopted by the global media, it is Marxism that they build their entire presumption around, and it is all wrong.  Their political spectrum is just another scandalous trick meant to lower people’s aversion to Marxism so that various degrees of acceptance could take place in America.  But at the core of most American politics is this mysticism as to why people seem to behave so much differently than the aristocratic ruling class which wants to separate the ordinary people from those who desire to boss other people around.  Marxism was their little curtain like the Wizard in the Wizard of Oz, where they could hide behind something and rule over others from a powerful central government, and a lot of people who came out of their childhoods with such desires accepted Marxism to various degrees to satisfy those inner insecurities.  But America was designed to get away from Marxism, which is a European creation and an export to other cultures, which it has destroyed many in its wake.  But in America, it just isn’t applicable. 

A lot of people during the 2023 elections have said of me and others in the MAGA movement that we are right-wing, which I find perplexing.  I watched old westerns like Gunsmoke, Little House on the Prairie, Davy Crockett from Disney, and Zorro as a kid.  Those are products from an unusually free country that had expectations of personal identity that is unique in the world and there is a reason we don’t see those kinds of stories being produced by modern-day Hollywood.  Because the Marxists, as I have explained and which is quite well chronicled now, intended to take over Hollywood, destroy those types of stories, and present the public with Marxist propaganda.  A really good example of that is in the movie Kong: Skull Island which just had China buy up Legendary Studios who produced the film.  I’ve talked specifically about this movie on several occasions and there are a lot more, this isn’t an isolated incident.  But it is overtly obvious what is going on, and it is an excellent example of how the movie industry gradually accepted various levels of Marxism, socialism, and communism into their lives.  To the point where in 2023 the political scale is so distorted with tainted perspective that nobody even remembers where the baseline was because it has been removed from social discourse.  But people are still people and they believe what they do, the same as they always have.  This attempt to change them has been a failed experiment and it is starting to frustrate the perpetrators.  Out of frustration because they can’t get people to follow them, they refer to those who reject them as “right winged.”  When really, it was people who were never drug to the left to any degree that they are referring to. 

I understand what happens to people throughout their lives; they might experiment with drugs, and they might even delve into a homosexual experience.  At some point in the many temptations of youth, they step away into the darkness of Marxism and start accepting various degrees of leftist ideology, which compromises their integrity, and they end up becoming some degree of a lefty.  Maybe they like the Beatles, who were overt communists in their artistic offerings, or they fear standing alone in the free market and find some powerful government that can distribute fairness attractive, so they start adopting little bits of Marx into their lives to hide from the reality of a competitive existence.  Most of the RINOs I have known over the years fall into one of these categories.  At some point, they did drugs, drank too much, cheated on their spouses, and lost their ability to be “holier than thou,” so they accept little bits of lefty politics to hide their shame.  Over time, their political view moved far to the left, and they wanted to believe that they were centralists, when in fact, they were all the dangers of what the Federalists represented, those who love big government to hide their many mistakes in life and still be celebrated in social circles as respectable.  After all, don’t all people have those problems?  Well, I don’t; I have never liked socialist classic rock songs, done drugs, or enjoyed a promiscuous lifestyle.  I’m essentially someone who could have walked out of any movie from Hollywood’s Golden Age and am proudly untainted by the corrosive effects of Marxism.  And that makes it easy for me to see various levels of Marxism in other people because their behavior is so overtly leftist, as the Europeans classify it. 

I am sympathetic to people who have lost their way, and I’m happy to help them through the dark caves of life with a flashlight that will show them the path to righteousness.  And when you further peel back the intentions of Marxism, which was wonderfully captured in the book We the Living, our society was designed to desecrate individuals so that they would seek to hide their shame behind Marxism for relief.  I have known this for a long time, especially in my own college days.  I would look at women passed out in the halls of dorms and the apartments of strange young men, equally compromised and disgraced with vomit all over their faces after a night of partying, and I would wonder how they would explain all this to their kids someday.  That kind of personal conduct is an element of Marxism and it was introduced into American culture early as the intrusions of Marxism and his soft socialism were being sold to America during the Industrial Revolution.  When we talk about people being “right-wing” we are essentially talking about people who refuse to accept failure in human conduct as a default mode for living life.  Marxism gives weak people the illusion that they can misbehave, drink too much, cheat too often, and hide their aversion to personal risk with the skirt of the mother government to protect them from too much competition in the world, to shelter their fragile egos from the realities of a hostile world.  Marxism let them believe that they could rule without risk, and be aristocrats without having actually to become a capitalist.  They could appease a docile public with charity and sacrifice just like the ancient Palestinians did when God told Abraham to take the nation of Israel and make it the “Promised Land.”  America is a promised land, and it has been invaded by left-leaning European imports, which Marxism defines.  And some people have accepted it, and from my perspective, they are some degree of a Marxist, depending on how much they use powerful centralized governments to shield them from their many mistakes in life.  There is no right-wing party that validates people who are encumbered with a mistake-riddled existence.  There are only failures and Americans.  Our classic Westerns used to distinguish to a hungry public the difference and show why any form of leftist political ideology is not only dangerous but destroyed people from the inside out.  And I consider anything to the political left of me as devastating to the individuals involved.

The Principalities of Doom: Protecting your Soul in the Akashic Records from an evil, universal menace

To really understand the enemy, we must get beyond the surface of things.  It’s not enough to deal with the politics of the obvious, the lives that our senses were meant to deal with.  But to the many other influences that are quite prevalent and looming.  When people ask me who the enemy is in our modern political world, my common response is that they are principalities, hostile members of the Divine Council who were always giving Yahweh a hard time.  I explain to them that there is a very complicated politics attached to this Divine Council that has always been with us, even before we were we.  And an excellent place to start with that understanding is by reading books by Linda Howe such as How to Read the Akashic Records.  I like Linda Howe quite a lot, and she has a lot of books and what they all deal with is unlocking the memory and potential of your human soul and the history it has over a long period of time.  By dealing with the Akashic Records, you can not only deal with the details of your own human soul, the eternal part of yourself that lasts essentially forever, but also communicate with people long gone and, in some cases, people who will become important to you who haven’t even been born yet.  I find Linda’s Akashic Records to be fascinating, and a good step at getting to the real problem of evil in the world and how it spreads.  And is one of the better means of stopping such evil, by going to the lair where many of these principalities reside.  Most cultures have some basic understanding of the human soul and how to at least manage it to the best of their five senses.  Some of the methods used in the Akashic Records can at least help you establish a relationship that stops giving free reign to the many, and infinite malicious characters who reside to attack your essence in the still unlocked mysteries of quantum mechanics where many living things plot, and scheme with the same voracious detail as the most cunning K-Street lobbyists. 

It’s not enough for me to call evil beings and spirits devils or demons.  The truth of the matter requires more definition to begin to understand it.  But when you look around the world at the kinds of problems that start out of nowhere, then consider what the strategic need is, you often need to do more than just pull back the curtain on a Wizard of Oz hiding there.  You must understand why the guy is hiding behind the curtain, who made the curtain, and why.  And to do that, you must deal with malicious principalities who are clearly against God’s plan where we find ourselves as battlefield pawns to a much larger story of interdimensional significance.  For instance, when you look at the motivations of the current terrorist sentiments of Hamas, the Free Palestine movement, it’s not enough to say that the Devil made everyone do it, even if such a statement is headed in the direction of the truth.  The motivations are more complicated than even what the World Economic Forum Marxists could do on their own.  Of course, they are responsible for what they do in life, but why do they believe the things they do, what kind of dreams do they have, and what makes those dreams pop into their heads for which they build political schemes in life to deal with?  The question as to why people believe the things they do is a more critical question than just dealing with the after-effects of their menace. 

One thing that is dealt with in the Akashic Records is the premise of past lives, which then ties some of this to Hindu culture and a way of thinking that steps away from the development of an individual soul, which I would say is the meaning of life.  I’m in a pretty unique thought process on that, and I thought about an excellent way for my verification while I watched people at a Shinto shrine in Japan on a street corner in Kobe.  To my way of thinking, most people get the entire purpose of life wrong, but we have been working these things out for many thousands of years, which is part of a much larger universal process.  Human beings are developing as a species for purposes that are certainly a concern for the principalities of all existence.  And they are highly motivated by how our souls grow.  What’s good for us is likely very bad for them, so much of what our politics consists of on the nightly news has traces of the everlasting politics within it.  But I do not think that memories of past lives, or even famous people from the past, such as having memories of being Joan of Arc or Napolean, is that we were those actual people.  But the DNA in our bodies, just like the water we consume, is billions of years old and likely has some memory, and when we think we are talking to ourselves as a memory, we are talking to these many employees in our bodies who all have unique histories and a vast experience that interacts with us, but may not be “us” as we typically define it. 

The development of our soul through our lives is a purpose that eludes most people, and of course, to fulfill their own political objectives; the principalities of doom are doing what they feel they must do to protect themselves from our soul’s development.  If they can get people to stay focused on conditions that make them easy to control, then the politics of their concern ease them considerably.  But if you are a threat to them, even though you may not intentionally do so, then they will seek politically to eliminate you from their plans, which is the reason that things are so wacky these days.  These forces have always been looming in the background, and living beings developed various religions to deal with them and manage some appeasement relationships.  But when things get out of control for those principalities, of course, they will attack the very soul of those most of a threat to them and attempt to burden them in ways that often aren’t perceptual in the regular ways.  Be very cautious about why you think the things you do, and always question where those sources come from.  They may not be friendly; in fact, I would argue that they are likely very malicious.  The politics of Heaven are much more complicated than our terrestrial lives, and we should expect that.  Just because we haven’t managed to have a relationship with those elements, it doesn’t mean that the human race isn’t on a similar path as our souls, and we are growing an understanding that is very much a threat to the eternal order in a good way.  But to understand this view of existence, the Akashic Records is a great place to start in getting to know the real you, not the creature that is born, and grows up and dies.  But your eternal nature, the real you who, through life, is being developed as you live.  And it is the real you, not the person that looks at you in the mirror, that many of these evil principalities are trying to destroy before you ever figure out what they are really up to.

The New Speaker, Mike Johnson: Taking our government back from the Marxists and lobbyists

I keep telling everyone how good conflict is to any management system, especially in politics.  A great example is in how the Speaker of the House race was determined with Mike Johnson, a relative unknown who is probably more conservative than Jim Jordan.  This dumb idea of consensus building is a Marxist concept where one party’s rule convinces other people to make their own decisions for their own best interests.  It does not find the best people for the job, it eliminates them, and it doesn’t matter what field of professional endeavor it is applied.  It’s always the same.  The panic when one of the establishment Republicans was not elected as Speaker of the House was comical.  As I said, we can live without a Speaker of the House.  But the lobbyist culture can’t, and those were the people most vocal when House members rejected all the previous offerings.  The days where we get stuck with people who will sell us out, like Mitch McConnell, are over, and it’s because of how often they have let us down.  The free ride for manipulators of our Representative Republic is done.  We have seen the kind of world they want to give us, and we don’t like it.  So, this Speaker of the House situation in 2023 is just the beginning of many things to come that we could best describe for the bad guys as the “gnashing of teeth.”  After much discussion about who the Speaker of the House would be after Kevin McCarthy was removed for breaking his promises to the Freedom Caucus just a few months earlier, it took time to find someone everyone could agree on, and a typical lobbyist representative was not going to cut it.  The news media had meltdowns daily as to why Republicans couldn’t agree on the next Speaker, and for weeks, no names were seriously considered.  RINO after RINO was put forth, but there was no interest in voting for another “do nothing” just to be a placeholder for the lobbyists from K-Street.  Finally, a good person was elected, Mike Johnson. 

Most people don’t realize, because their lives are so entangled in it, just how much Marxism is lodged into their lives.  I live my life wonderfully free of its effects, so it is surprising to me how much people have been seduced by Marxism over time, and it’s obvious when fights like this Speaker thing show the beliefs of the mass population.  But what else would people believe? Ever since the invention of mass media, the mind control apparatus of vile characters has been working full-time to sell Marxism to the world through its trusted news sources.  Well, trusted until a lack of performance has let us down to the point of no return, which is where we find ourselves today.  People have been disrespected by those who want to essentially rule the world and apply Marxism as their means to maintain control.  I have been writing about it for decades and talking about it for far longer.  This consensus-building nonsense has always been destructive, and it’s the method of every school board in the country learned by their established practices.  We see it in corporate America, even globally.  But in essence, all it is is a rip-off of gullible people taken advantage of by the wolves of the world dressed up as grandma only to eat Little Red Riding Hood.  We have self-rule in America, and it has produced the most excellent economy in the world, which then provides the best opportunities for most people, which is also why the world as a whole is doing whatever it can to get into America.  But the methods of established practices through the nonsense of consensus building is as anti-American as you can get, and that’s why we have so much corrupt politics in Washington, D.C.  Mike Johnson is a decision to move in a different direction.

It is almost a joke that so many people, especially in the media, are surprised by the selection of Mike Johnson to be the new Speaker.  I talk about it all the time; my experience with Washington, D.C., has never been a good one.  I find it obliviously disgusting that there are so many leeches off the system. You see it best displayed if you spend time on K-Street and compare the daytime with the night.  So many people are there with very low moral codes, running around busily as if the work they are doing has any meaning when all they are doing is paving the way for big donors to buy a policy that benefits them.  Going way back into the 90s, I saw the writing on the wall.  Businesses felt they had to pay lobbyists to do essential representation for them because that was how the rigged system was developing.  We had elections, and people would vote, but the representatives did the deeds of those who padded their pockets financially.  And that’s obvious by the bank accounts of many politicians, pigs at the trough like Joe Biden.  It’s not just him, but the SWAMP makes people like Hunter Biden, crack addict losers who live off the efforts of others, just like Marxism produces everywhere in the world.  This is why corrupt people love Marxism because they can permanently hide in the background and never do anything of real merit but still be treated with importance.  And it has allowed political figures to sell off their offices and get rich while the rest of the world clamors in desperation for actual representation in government. 

And I keep telling people that the support of President Trump is not a fleeting thing.  The nature of politics is changing for good not because of Trump.  But people like Trump will only find that people will support them, which is the issue with selecting Mike Johnson for the Speaker role.  These MAGA supporters are looked at as terrorists by the Marxist insurgents who have placed themselves under the wheels of the will of the people because that’s how our system is thankfully designed.  They have been functioning otherwise, but that’s to their detriment.  In truth, Mike Johnson is just the most recent example.  In a few years, there will be people like him running the Senate, too, and running the FBI and Department of Defense.  People were conned; they weren’t stupid.  They got caught trusting bad people, and over time, the clock has run out on that trust.  So, we see people like Trump and Johnson moving into government positions.  The gravy train is ending, and there is no way to stop it, so the media is panicking over how the Speaker was selected.  There will be a day in the not-so-distant future when Trump won’t be in politics any longer.  But the desire for people like Mike Johnson won’t go away.  It will only increase, and that is because people desire proper representation by competent people.  It’s not the kind of sell-outs that gave politics a bad name in the first place.  Everyone should know better than to think that this scam would go on forever.  But people weren’t going to trust these losers perpetually.  People don’t want Marxism in America, so all the plots that have worked to make Marxism the standard of the world were always going to fall short, and those effects are happening as we speak and in ways that nobody has previously considered, to their detriment.
