The Greatest Wars are the Ones We Haven’t Fought Yet: Banks in an alliance with the World Economic Forum have declared their intentions

There was a clear arrogance as World Economic Forum leaders found themselves winning elections everywhere in Europe as summer sunk teeth into the Northern Hemisphere, especially in England and France.  Populist uprisings had been held at bay, and WEF candidates were slid under the door in the quiet of night by a global election fraud apparatus that is the greatest threat to our modern age.  They had already performed their coups against leaders in Brazil and America and were looking to infiltrate every significant position globally.  And they were laughing about it after they found a way to join openly with the communists in France to stay in power with Macron.  If you knew anything about history, the world was becoming a major war.  But this time, it wouldn’t be America joining the wars of World War I and World War II or the various fights against communism in Vietnam and Korea.  Or the spread of Marxism in the Near East, such as the conflicts with Iran and Iraq, were all about.  But always lingering in the background of those wars were debt maintenance and the manipulation of banks to keep the bad guys solvent financially to stick around to become a significant problem and ruthless dictators, which was undoubtedly the case with J.P. Morgan and their relationships with the Emperor of Japan, Mussolini, and Hitler.  This new war that is upon us looks to be the biggest one yet, and the opening days of it have already passed us with the evidence of massive election fraud by a band of globalists looking to take over the entire world and dissolve all solvent countries into a state of their control.  And how do they expect to do that?  They plan to do this by leveraging our massive debt, as all wars in the past alluded to, especially in modern times, as mentioned. 

I would say, as I have for a while now, that the most dangerous element in the world is not climate change.  America’s Federal Reserve had propped up BlackRock to distribute printed money made through quantitative easing to heat the stock market to ridiculous levels on fake money and to use that leverage to buy up the boards of most of the world’s major economic contributors.  It has been a sinister plan much worse than anything that led to the creation of two world wars and the United Nations as a means to end all wars.  But when they say war, they don’t mean the classic sense where needless lives were lost defending the honor of a nation.  But the destruction of nations themselves with a fiscal policy that destroys all value at its borders and collapsed the economies without a shot.  No, the best wars are not behind us; they are right in front of us, and it will be very tough for many people in the coming years.  And America is the last stand for global independence and a tyrannically Marxist takeover of international politics on a grand scale, starting at our banks.  When people look around and wonder why things are the way they are and contemplate why our politicians don’t do anything about, say, Covid, which was created as a bioweapon in a lab in Wuhan, then released to the world, murdering millions of innocent people, the answer is a horrendous one.  It is one too terrible to admit to in the light of day, yet there it is in front of all our faces. 

World War II was all about debt and using it to manipulate the world to create a United Nations.  That is a sad consideration when you think of all the lives lost and how most of our memorial holidays pay homage to the great battles won and lost and the memory of fallen soldiers.  It’s terrible to think that all the fighting was essentially over debt.  In those cases, other countries needed money, and only the banks of America could provide it.  These days, however, America is in debt to the world, and that’s why there is arrogance in these global elections.  Even if we wanted to stop the tyranny, we couldn’t because our debts are held over our heads in ways that dissolve our sovereignty as a nation.  That is also why globalist-minded people, including corporations, have absolutely no reverence for the American Constitution because they plan to dissolve it anyway.  They don’t care about Supreme Court rulings or populist movements in general because they hold the debt of every American in their hands and can crush anybody at will.  And they know it.  The only thing keeping them from making a move now is the ownership in America of so many guns.  They have to do their attacks slowly, at the value of the dollar, and kill America at the bank.  Slower than they’d like.  Fiscal policy is our biggest concern in this modern warfare of international banking. Wars are not fought as we have been taught, but in ways we have never understood, at your local bank and all the connections to it. Currently, at 35 trillion in debt, America is over-leveraged, resulting in a loss of freedom. And the enemies of America want that condition. We are paying 12.5 trillion in interest over the next ten years, which is a significant problem. Much of the communist plots against our nation are being funded off these interest payments.  Many people are getting rich off America, and we must stop that if we ever want to make America great again.

Most of what we think of war is an illusion given to us as a way to mask the intentions of modern war to rule as a global state of a Marxist aristocracy, and they are well underway with their plan.  They have been eager to do as BlackRock has done in its partnership with the fed: use cheap and easy printed money to buy up representative government and, with it, our nation’s sovereignty.  How else can you explain how so many people in Congress and the Senate have become rich off salaries that don’t come close to producing the income level they are experiencing?  And to fuel the insurrection, the enemies that wish to topple America, from the perspective of centralized banking, point straight to the World Economic Forum.  And they are hostile in their intentions to use debt as leverage to destroy our nation for the benefit of a bailout by the world when the debts are called in.  With every dollar of debt comes a loss of personal freedoms, and that is why the world is marching the way it is, with America looking like a complicit contributor instead of an arbiter of justice.  We can’t afford to have an opinion on anything, especially to be isolationists as a sovereign nation.  The attacks against our country have been aggressive and consistent.  While we have been shopping at Wal-Mart for new electronic entertainment, our nation has been sold out from under our feet.  And until we can repay our debts to those holding the debt and making a lot of money off interest on that debt, America does not have the freedom to do anything but be a servant to the debt that our politicians have sold us out to, and our attackers in the World Economic Forum are planning to collect on a moments notice once we show ourselves resistant to their manipulations, globally.  So far, as long as we support the United Nations with much of that debt, we are given the illusion of freedom.  But we don’t have it.  And getting back that freedom will lead to the greatest war the world has ever seen.  And we are at the start of it now.

The Attack Vector of Globalism: Immigration and drugs are their strategy to destroy America and make a ‘global citizen’

Of course, we have been at war for a long time, but not in the conventional sense.  Most of the wars, if not all of them, in the last century, even going back to the Civil War, were concoctions of finance, the tampering of globalism to destroy the concept of sovereign nations and create “united nations.”  The delivery method has been propaganda, not overt domination with ground troops the way wars have been traditionally fought and defined.  And when you understand the political leanings of finance, where the wives traditionally leaned far left and dabbled in the occult, the men followed their wives socially and lent themselves to progressive causes.  This is to say, there is some degree of global socialism as designed by Karl Marx baked into high finance societies.  And in high society, they contemplated what they thought people were or weren’t.  And when they turned their gaze to America, to destroy all concepts of nationalism in favor of global identity, they studied what had been done to the American Indian as the method to kill those who became members of the greatest nation on earth.  This is very obvious when the point of reference is westerns, such as Kevin Costner’s newest Western, Horizon, which is very good.  The Indians were hostile savages who were in the way of Manifest Destiny, and the Christian notion of destiny and rule-based fate are ideas that global communists chide against even today, including what they think they learned from Westward Expansion.  It’s important to understand that what these globalists are doing to America is purposeful and an act of war once you place yourself in their shoes and see the world somewhat as they do.  They do not like Americans.  They do like primitive people from all over the world because they make good subjects to rule over, so they tend to embrace societies that are tribal as opposed to inventive. 

They see how Americans flooded the West with immigrants after wave after wave of migrants continued to perpetually come.  No matter how fast the Indians killed off the settlers, they just kept coming until it wasn’t long before the Indians were gone, and the immigrants replaced an entire race of indigenous people.  That’s not how I see it, but it is how global communists (progressives) in high finance see it from their limited understanding of life in general.  The open border policies of globalists are only to be understood one way: as an attack on sovereign nations to change their country from one thing to another.  The open borders in America, for instance, is a military exercise meant to reverse what happened to the Indians by the Americans.  In the circles of high finance and the movement of the many sophists in the wives clubs of the early last century, permeating today into the various feminist movements and communist offshoots, the belief is that the way to beat America for its sins of the past, for its society built on slavery, is to kill them off the way they killed off the Indian, with wave after wave of immigration, until they are all outvoted, or gone by interbreeding.  Of course, there are lots of holes in this understanding of the world, and it’s very limited, but if you sit in most dinner conversations of high society, they think this is the objective view of history and the way to destroy those pesky American capitalists once and for all.  For what they did to the American Indians, they will have then turned back on them, and within a few generations, they will be destroyed from the face of the earth, forgotten by history.

The other thing that occurred during western expansion was that trade with Indians introduced them to alcohol, a poison that utterly ruined them.  Indians couldn’t deal with the requirements of their culture, leading to the very rapid demise of their men and, therefore, the ability to continue reproducing as heads of a family.  So, as Indians were killed off in battles and range wars, they could not replace their populations with a new generation because they were ruined and drunk. After years of casual study by a lot of communist-oriented history professors, they have analyzed the destruction of the American Indian down to these two objectives, and they have rolled those sentiments into this modern strategy of creating a global citizen, using what worked against the American Indian and applying it to the contemporary American and European.  You don’t see mass migration, for instance, going into China or Japan.  It’s only in areas of the world where finance is sponsoring social change for a military incursion, designed by the desire and need to create a United Nations global citizen.  The drugs flooding our border and culture, even down to the persistent trap to make marijuana legalized and normalized, are attempts to poison our youth culture outright and destroy any notion of a work ethic.  The amount and desire to use drugs and intoxicants of all kinds is a military objective that has been cast upon American society not as a pleasure but as a destructive element of chaos meant to destroy all traces of the Anglo-Saxon influence and Bible thumpers of Western civilization.  To see it, you must understand the people behind the bioweapon COVID-19, a proven fact with plenty of evidence.  But the evil intention is well beyond the scope of most trusting people.  The same desire to kill off entire races of people is behind permissive drug use, and they are using the fate of what was witnessed with the American Indian and alcoholism as their model for destruction presently.

The new movie Horizon captures the sentiment perfectly.  I’ve watched every Western movie made many times.  I’ve read books and studied history, and that film reminds me a lot of Teddy Roosevelt’s Winning the West books and Alen Eckert’s Frontiersman novels, which are some of my favorites ever written.  But you can see the impact of high finance in these modern stories, where Indians previously would have been referred to as “savages” because, compared to the immigrants of Western Expansion, they were hostile and vicious.  But in Horizon, they are always, at worst, referred to as “indigenous people.”  Politically, they would dare go no further because the globalist citizen movement behind all financial frontiers would not put up with any reference to “savages” when talking about Indians.  That’s how new wars are fought, and it happens over a long time.  But when you see films like Horizon and what ends up being cut together into a finished form and released to the public by a product of Hollywood like Kevin Costner, you get a good insight into the way that Hollywood lefties think about the matter and what they think ruined the Indians at the cruel hands of incoming immigrants. And you can almost hear the wine glasses banging at a dinner with George Soros and his little boy Alex as they fund the destruction of America with such thoughts about how the Indians were treated and how the white Anglo-Saxon deserves the same fate, and worse.  For anybody to just take it as anything but an act of war is criminal at this point.  The strategy is obvious: globalism is at war with the American citizens, and our government has not done its job in protecting our culture.  They have sponsored illegal immigration, hoping to replace our entire population with immigrants out of revenge for how America was settled to begin with.  Part of that strategy is to poison our culture with drugs and alcohol so that there is nothing left in a few decades to defend America but brain-dead slugs looking for their next hit of drugs to savor intoxication over the benefits of accomplishment.  It all started with an attack, not by tradition but by point of reference from a progressive culture that has as its objective global domination and a one-world rule.  These are the weapons of war from their minds of mayhem, as history has taught them, and they are utilizing them aggressively to this day.

Why the Police Tend to Molest Kids: We can never trust people in authority positions, they need to be watched carefully

I went to get a Chester’s Pizza the other day and went to pick it up, and there were a couple of corrections officers there doing the same.  So obviously, the discussion about the Butler Tech kid who had formed sexual relationships with inmates at the Butler County jail while working as a 17-year-old intern came up.  We were making small talk and discussing pizzas.  They were dressed up in the uniform, and one thing led to another, so I had to ask them, “How could a kid like that get along with the inmates?  How is that possible?”  They answered that there were so many bad things out there that nobody could stop them.  “If people want to do something, they’re going to do it.”  We all grabbed our pizzas, said our “See ya’ laters,” and continued our day.  However, their comment is undoubtedly applicable to many people who look at these public servants; whether it be the police or a superintendent of a government school, we see a massive disconnect between unionized employees of any kind and direct responsibility.  And when pressed, all the adults in the room shrug their shoulders and say, “What do you want us to do?”  This lack of care for the well-being of children bothers many people.  They don’t understand it, especially mothers who instinctively will lay down their very lives for the protection of a child.  And a 17-year-old girl under the adult care of a school of any kind is still a child.  This media story has caused a lot of people to tell stories about their lives and experiences with the police and what their expectations of law enforcement are.  One that struck me over the last several weeks mentioned expertise with law enforcement Explorer posts from many years ago, which gives insight into this massive problem.

When I was a kid, from 13 to around 16, I was in a High Adventure Explorer Post, a coed division of the Boy Scouts of America designed to give the participants lifelong skills in leadership and adventure.  I have made great use of it over the years, and it’s a program that should be available to as many kids as possible.  The whole thing ended for me when, on a warm Friday night in February, I was scheduled to meet a bunch of kids for a fight in the middle of nowhere.  One of them ended up getting killed by gunfire.  And my squeaky clean public persona went under serious scrutiny.  Just that very day, I gave a speech at GE Aviation in Evendale to future Explorers and was elected Vice President of the Dan Beard Council.  After the killing, my time on that board had lasted less than 24 hours, but it was good while it lasted.  I loved the Explorer groups, and every year at Camp Friedlander in August, all the area Explorer Posts would get together to compete in a kind of Olympics, and it was always exciting.  It allowed us to get to know other kids in other explorer posts and learn what they did.  I looked forward to those competitions every year and could tell many stories.  However, one thing that I did know was that the members of the Police and Fire Fighting Explorer Posts always had troubled people in them.  That fine line between being a personality drawn to power and authority and one that will abuse that relationship with other people was common regarding the kids in those groups.

Before we go down that rabbit hole, though, I can also say I was very active in my church.  And I was very close with our local pastor.  So much so that I would sleep in his tent when we went on youth camping trips; now, this guy was average in all aspects of life by outward appearance.  And he was, of course, smart when it came to scripture.  But when I was in a tent with him, he couldn’t stop himself from being nude in front of me—all the time.  If I was just a fraction less cynical than I am naturally, I’m sure there would be stories of molestation.  But my personality repeals those types of things, and it always has.  So there was never any of that.  But that Pastor wanted there to be.  And that went on until my adult life, as he ended up marrying my wife and me.  And his overtly sexual behavior carried on whenever we’d meet.  At the church’s Passion plays, he always wanted us to dress authentically like Jesus and the criminals in just a little towel.  If the towel fell off, we’d be nude to the audience, but he wanted authenticity.  Over the years, I have learned the hard way, between my church and the Explorer Post dealings, that people in power and authority usually have problems with sexual depravity because sex requires a dominator and a domination receiver during the shared experience.  So abuses happen often, and this leads to permissive behavior as if they want to yell at the world, “well, you want cops; this is what cops do.”  They abuse their authority as studs in the barn.  What else would they do? 

Well, while we’re telling old stories, I can say that I have personally employed several personalities who went on to be police officers.  I know the personality type very well.  One couple that I was very good friends with was not shy about being swingers, and they very much wanted to be friends with my wife and me.  So much so that I had parties at my house, and they would attend.  But in their relationship as a married couple, they were in open marriages.  She slept with anybody who wanted to in the Springboro police department.  And he moved on from me to become a cop in Hamilton.  He was a good-looking young man who was very smart.  And brutal.  He was an early version of the cage fighters we see in the MMA today.  But I liked him, even though I knew he and his wife, and most of the cops in Hamilton and Springboro, as well as Mason, were very sexually active.  That guy got himself into a lot of trouble as he and his friends were pulling over carloads of girls and having them perform sexual favors to get out of traffic tickets.  He got fired once the story got out because it was too overt for the union to protect him.  And when he called me for a job referral from Florida, I couldn’t give him one.  My opinion about all this now is that sexual deviancy is so prevalent, especially among authority figures, that people are numb to it.  They accept that it happens, so it continues to happen often.  And we should expect it to be a problem, not something that should surprise us.  This is dangerous because once a society accepts something, it becomes normalized.  And that is what has happened to all our government unions who are in power positions over other people.  The temptation to abuse that authority is just too great, and their collective bargaining units keep them from ever taking responsibility for bad behavior once they get caught.  When the outside world sees this, they get agitated because people generally want justice.  They want to trust these people.  But I have learned enough over the years to say you can’t trust them.  You can expect them to do their job but don’t take your eye off them.  The moment you do, they will be trying to climb into the backseat of a car with a 14-year-old girl with ill intentions on their mind.  We need cops.  We need people in authority positions.  But my advice would be to never turn your back on them.  And never put a 17-year-old girl in jail as a piece of meat dangled before a bunch of lions.  Those correctional officers were well aware of what would happen and created a permissive environment for detriment to occur.  And when they were all caught, they looked at you dumbfounded as if to say, “What do you expect us to do?”  They generally don’t have it in them to do the right thing.  And we should never expect them to do so without careful checks on their power by the media and public, forcing them to live up to a higher standard.  They won’t do it on their own.

The Global Mafia Rule of The Octagon Group: “He who owns the gold, rules”

I think you’ll find that most people associated with group activity are drawn to the safety blanket of such community affiliation out of their insecurities.  For instance, one of the most influential people in the world and a financial powerhouse in America was J.P. Morgan Sr., a womanizer, a believer in astrology, and a passionate collector of art.  He was also very insecure about how big his nose was.  Many early bankers, such as Morgan, were socialists who were much more attracted to limited competition because it made their lives much easier than the chaos of the free market.  Much discussion about his professional and public life has been discussed because of who he is, but what he believes gets much less attention than how we have learned to report details of people’s lives.  Because we don’t want to be exposed ourselves, as reporters, we don’t often ask all the detailed questions.  But it was common among such people, the most powerful and influential in the world, to have deep personal insecurities that they hid behind various group affiliations.  So when you hear that these kinds of people, whether it’s the Morgans, the Rothschilds, or the Vanderbilts, pick your big family of strong influence, you’ll see some common traits that sound more like mafia bosses than normal church-going patrons on a Sunday afternoon. They find themselves in secret societies not because what they do is all that secret but because they wish to conceal a power they get from group affiliation from a general public they wish to rule over, to mask their insecurities.  They want to be elite compared to the ordinary person to provide that illusion to themselves through classic group consensus.  This is why I have said that the organized crime mobs moved from the power that the sudden invention of mass communication and transportation gave them and migrated into government.  Because that’s where the power was.  For instance, in Morgan’s case, or any of them thinking of starting a Federal Reserve in 1910, their primary interest was using the government to cover loans they made to various countries.  How else could they recover funds owed to them but take over the government and use that power to collect when people, or other countries, stiffed them? 

In many ways, we have all assumed that everyone in the world played by and respected our Constitutional rules in America.  However, from the point of view of the globalist power broker who is deeply involved in international business, the rules were for thee, but not for me, as a general social position.  To swallow that pill, they would belong to various groups, such as Masons, and seek protection from the spirit world in secret societies, which is how membership into the largest and most secretive came to be for some and why it’s still a problem today, which hides a lot of organized crime.  And that is essentially how and why there is a group called the Octagon Group, which makes up an ultra-secret globalist network based out of Switzerland and comprises influential Catholic and Jewish families whose lineage traces back to the Egyptian Pharaohs.  It is the wealthiest, most deadly, and most technologically advanced mafia in the world, which umbrellas hundreds of other organizations and has the shape of an 8-sided logo as a symbol.  For instance, one of the most public expressions of their power is the Dome of the Rock at Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem.  The conflict there between Islam, the Christians, and the Jews is an artificial construct meant to control public sentiment and keep political tensions from allowing the public at large to get too close to their actual clandestine actions.  It’s a turf war essentially between the global mafia and ordinary people who will enable themselves to be divided into various religious factions controlled by these personalities.

It’s not like membership in this club has a charter and a chain of command that the public would understand.  Most of the membership happens by default rather than a conscious decision.  But when we talk about the Knights of Malta, the Khazarian Mafia, the Nazis, the World Economic Forum, the Jesuits, the Masons, the Black Nobility, the Vatican, the Rothschilds, the Morgans, the British Empire, the Black Pope, even the Roman Empire as it was created and implemented, then studied over the years, it all traces back to this membership of the Octagon Group. Around the world, the eight sides of their logo represent the eight main cities of their control, such as Rome, Jerusalem, Washington D.C., Munich, London, Zurich, Geneva, and Bern.  Notice the names of cities not on this list, such as Beijing, Delhi, Tokyo, or even Moscow.  When you pull away all the curtains as to how mob mentality has ruled the world, most of it traces back to this international mob of the Octagon Group operating out of these eight primary cities and using the mask of traditional governments as their personal collection agencies to be the heavies of their international funding operations.  To play the game, you have to be a member.   Otherwise, they use the power of governments they control to destroy all challengers.  The members join out of self-interest to rule the world from the shadows.  But they aren’t any better than anybody else.  They are prone to acquire power and money and protect their gains through globalist affiliations under the umbrella of the Octagon Group.  And before you say such a thing is crazy, remember, there is a giant obelisk from ancient Egypt in the middle of America’s capital, hiding in plain sight.  It’s hardly a conspiracy theory; it’s right out in the open. 

People not so obsessed with power and control, which under any other conditions would be considered a mental illness, generally want to live their lives, do what they need to to make a living, and can live and let live when it comes to other people.  But the members of these massive globalist mobs who have grown over time to control the entire finance industry and used the power of government to collect on debts owed to them generally have a few screws loose that don’t get analyzed commonly because the scrutiny would come from the same people seeking jobs and employment.  So, people typically look the other way, hoping that they might profit from the discretion.  That’s how such groups have gained power over society in general, which they don’t deserve to have.  It’s also why they believe they don’t have to obey any laws in America and that they function above and beyond governments. Technically, they view the government as their direct employees, not public representatives.  The public serves them as elite members of society, as do the governments they pick for their representation.  Until recently, these members of the Octagon Group hid their behavior behind the typical ring knockers of the military, who believe in rigid social constructs in society that are not merit-based but built to support social mechanisms rooted in aristocratic rule.  They don’t respect American independence from this structure.  They used American independence to topple kingdoms in Europe for their own needs of control.  But never forget, “he who owns the gold rules.”  And if you don’t control the gold, you don’t rule.  Whoever controls the monetary policy of a society is the ruler of that society, and this collection of various social mobs under the Octagon Group are the characters behind globalism.  They expected the governments to dance at their feet, as was the case, starting with Grover Cleveland in America and migrating through the Roosevelt, Taft, and then Wilson administrations.  After that, they were all too deeply embedded to stop traditionally.  The governments of the world became the captured assets we see today and are being smoked out by populism.  But their expectations to maintain their authority are pretty audacious.  They picked their guy in Biden because he was an excellent stooge for their movement.  But it’s coming unraveled as we speak, and panic is deep in their ranks on a global scale.  And it couldn’t happen to a better group of people and their mafia of discontent.  They have been controlling the money of the world.  But they are losing control now, and justifiably so.  If you want to end their rule, get control of your money management.  Otherwise, these destructive secret societies will continue to rule without any challenges to their authority.

‘Horizon: An American Saga,’ a movie that is magnificent for all who want to Make America Great Again

It’s a great movie that deserves to be seen in a movie theater, but most of what you have heard about the new film Horizon: An American Saga is wrong regarding the negative stuff.  It’s a big, bold movie that tries to put its arms around American westward expansion and can almost touch its fingers on the other side.  But it does do what many Westerns since the early days of cinema have done, and that captures the vast expanses of the West and American opportunity along the way that is simply magnificent.  This was a western on the scope of How the West Was Won, made by a guy in Kevin Costner, who loves westerns and has built the best parts of his career by making them.  It reminded me of an Alan Ekert novel from the Frontiersman series.  Now, this will not win the Academy Awards.  They will hate Costner for making this movie, so don’t expect any respect from the Hollywood machine for this Western series, which is the first of a projected four.  They are filming the third installment as of the summer of 2024.  The second part comes out in the middle of August.  And I hope they complete part four.  This is not a traditional way of making movies; you watch the first part in a movie theater for over three hours.  Then, once all the primary characters are introduced, you have to return a few months later to see what happens next.  At the end of Horizon: An American Saga Part One, we are just getting started on an epic story about the creation of America as a country, which is vastly ambitious.  I would say, from Kevin Costner’s point of view, this is a love letter to all the blood it took to make America and to make a point about why it was worth it. 

As a business decision, this is not built on the model Hollywood is built on today.  Not all standard measures can be applied.  This movie is made, I think, to try to save movie theaters from becoming the modern version of drive-ins.  There are economic forces out there that are very consciously trying to destroy various American industries through woke politics, and Hollywood has fallen for the trap in many ways, willingly.  The communist left has an agenda, and they have been attacking American Westerns for decades now.  This movie, Horizon: An American Saga, is a purposeful rebellion against that trend.  It is exceptionally well made by the same guy who directed Dances with Wolves.  It has all that size and scope and then some.  The problem with a movie like this is that the union labor costs are so outrageous now that it’s nearly impossible to make any large production without exceeding a 100 million dollar budget.   As I watched the credits until the end, this is a big Hollywood movie with all the big labor that comes with such a production, so the financing doesn’t add up in a traditional way, as measured by The Hollywood Reporter.  When John Ford made westerns like this, the budgets with unionized labor weren’t nearly so out of control.  So they could afford to tell stories like this without all the fast-paced action of a summer blockbuster.  This movie was designed to be presented significantly and for people to go to the theater to see it as opposed to streaming it at home.  It’s so long that it keeps people in the movie theater for a long time buying snacks.  And it could and should be seen several times.  And that people will keep coming back for future installments to see the next parts.  It’s an almost unheard-of financial model where Costner uses his personal money to help get the films out. 

It doesn’t surprise me that the film only made 10 million dollars in its opening weekend.  I mean, who is going to see it? It’s long, and they talk a lot.  There aren’t many action scenes.  It is filmed with traditional pacing; it reminded me of Little House on the Prairie or Gunsmoke in most of the movie.  The camera angles are broad but set, and the actors do a lot of work talking.  That’s not to say that everything isn’t interesting, but this isn’t a Marvel movie designed to be a billion-dollar box office generator.  They aren’t trying to thrill you with a spectacular action scene every ten minutes.  This is a plodding and deliberate movie made in the classic way to return to theaters after COVID-19, a Hollywood product that puts people back in their seats, not just for one event, but several times.  It was an extraordinarily bold throwback to when Hollywood told these kinds of stories often, and for people looking for their country back after years of political turmoil, this movie is a stake in the ground to inspire people to deal with the enormity of creating the greatest country on the face of the earth, and not to apologize for it.  Given the political situation we are all experiencing now, this is a movie for Trump supporters who want to Make America Great Again.  While Hollywood does love Kevin Costner, they certainly won’t be happy with him making this movie; The industry has attacked him for it in every negative reporting avenue they could.  But this is a project that Kevin Costner loves, and it shows.  And it is worth sharing, for sure.

A lot has been made about how Indians are portrayed in this movie.  Although they were brutal, I didn’t think they were shown in too harsh of a light.  People thought of them as savages.  It is the communist left who has told us that we were supposed to be in love with them and to think of them as indigenous people who were here first and that we took their land from them.  I have a very different view of Indian life, and I do not see them as a superior culture who had a right to be in North America and that we took something from them.  This movie, Horizon: An American Saga, gives the Indians more credit than I think they deserve.  In history, they were migrants just like everyone else, looking for a life for themselves.  But this living with nature crap is very much a globalist communist sentiment meant to control human behavior, not to do what humans were born to do, and that is to create.  Horizon is a movie about the need for American expansion and the collision of those forces on one of the last free places on Earth.  And as violent and challenging as it was, why did people do it?  It’s a movie that explains to us through all the lenses a movie can provide.  The effect is simply magnificent and different from any other movie experience that I’ve ever seen in my lifetime.  I hope it works.  It’s a massive gamble by Kevin Costner to put his life’s work into a movie like this and a series meant exclusively to be seen in a movie theater.  Movie theaters need movies like this to stay open, and Costner is trying to start a trend.  But the timing of it couldn’t have come at a better time.  This is a movie for all of us, no matter what your political background.  And America deserves this story to be told for its benefit.  Because ultimately, it’s the main character and the point of the entire enterprise.

Steve Bannon is in Jail: Playing by the rules so the rules can be used the other way

It’s a bit of a head-scratcher watching many on the communist left celebrate Steve Bannon reporting to jail on July 1st, 2024.  What do they think is going to happen next? Indeed, even though we know they are, as I ask the question, they can’t be that short-sighted.  The charges they are putting Bannon in jail over, and this is a member of President Trump’s strategic team from the White House, the same contempt of congress charges that Eric Holder had, and now Merrick Garland, both attorney generals who have abused their power of the office, and are now susceptible to the same.  What are they thinking is going to happen to them now that Bannon is going to jail for four months, starting on July 1st and ending on Halloween, just a few days before the election in November?  The communist left thinks that by taking Bannon off the map for the rest of the election, they will hurt Trump in the election, which is the whole point of the effort.  But don’t they know now that they’ve done this to Bannon and many other Trump supporters that they have justified the same terms in their direction?  It was amazing to watch so many members of the media celebrate Bannon going to jail as if there were no tomorrow and that their grip on power had garnered some celebratory effort.  It was just as stupid as other communist movements in the world, such as when East Berlin used to shoot people trying to cross the Berlin Wall over into West Berlin.  Or in Cuba, where political outcasts were shot and killed, and people were jailed and murdered just for trying to get away from the communist government there.  We are discussing that with Bannon and his fellow White House friend, Peter Navarro.  And they are even looking to do the same to Trump.  What do these idiots think is going to happen next?

We’re talking about a group of people who chanted to lock up Hillary Clinton during the 2016 term of Trump in the White House.  The difference is that Trump’s administration did not lock up his political rivals for obvious crimes that they committed, which his supporters were very disappointed in.  But once Biden was in the White House, they didn’t hesitate to pull that trigger and put in jail their political rivals.  And they’ve done it so audaciously.  Don’t they know the only reason that we don’t have an armed civil war where their mangled bodies aren’t dragged through the streets for what they have done to this country is that Bannon is playing by the rules so that the rules can be used against these Biden administration perpetrators?  If it’s good to apply to us, then the same can be applied to them.  And they have done much worse.  These are not the kind of Republicans of the past.  We are replacing RINOs to have more people like Marjorie Taylor Green and less Paul Ryans.  We want to put Democrats in jail over spitting on the sidewalk, and they have done a lot more than that.  We want them punished severely.  By putting Bannon in jail, the very famous podcaster and media personality who did an excellent segment with ABC News before reporting to jail, they have given us every reason in the world to punish them severely.  We’re not talking about a nation that is willing to have its government taken from them and to sit quietly like a bunch of losers and wait for tyranny to happen.  We have proof of it now, and America wants to act in a way that brings justice to these vile criminals. 

There has never been a communist model that has worked.  The one in China is a propped-up culture built by globalism that only sustains itself through deceit. They try to control what gets out in the media, but things still get out.  That is the communist playbook to show that kind of control over the population, and the assumption is that in America, the same sort of thing will work.  I have nothing against the people of Asia, but Americans are wired differently.  They want and expect justice for crimes against their liberty, which is why “Lock Her Up” about Hillary Clinton was such an essential part of the campaign.  People, even back then, wanted revenge for what they knew to be wrong, and those were the good ol’ days when the government tried to provide an illusion of freedom, at least.  Before they went too far with Covid, the vaccine mandates, a stolen election, and now putting their political rivals in jail over made-up charges, the January 6th committee will be found to have been a violation of congressional authority, and history will remember the Bannon case as a clear case of executive immunity, because he worked directly for President Trump.  Legally, all kinds of things are wrong with Bannon’s case; under no circumstances should he spend one day in jail or a small fortune on his legal defense, as he has had to do.  Only to be put in prison like some common criminal and locked up by a system that thinks it’s in control.  No, and I have had many private discussions about what happens next.  And not by some slack-jawed losers, but with respected members of law enforcement.  All the people who listen to my conversations from the intelligence community know the details thoroughly.  There is only one outcome which will not suit the communists. 

Communism is the right word.  Before this ostentatious effort by the forces of global tyranny, which we have witnessed in all its desperation over these last few years, culminating in this jail sentence, is a communist regime disguised as the Democrat Party enforcing its captured power in all the worst ways possible.  And they think we won’t demand justice in worse ways against them.  They believe that an attorney general who righted all these wrongs wouldn’t happen with Trump back in the presidency.  With Trump, there won’t be a Jeff Sessions part two, or another Bill Barr.  Those were attorney generals Trump put in place to show the world that he wouldn’t abuse his power because people were critical of him because of what the MAGA public demanded.  Trump wanted to win another term and to bring the country together.  The communists were terrified that he might be successful, so they did what they did to exert control over the population, the same as they do in communist countries like China.  But in a second Trump term, it will be expected, especially now, to throw the law books at these members of the communist left and to purge them from our society without compassion.  People will not forget the way the Democrats celebrated jailing Steve Bannon and others.  And they will expect revenge, retribution, justice, whatever anybody wants to call it.  And it won’t come from Trump.  It will come from the people who put him back in office.  The people of America are unhappy, and that anger can’t be ignored or beaten down into submission.  And what happens next, which must occur, is unavoidable.  But believe me, it’s far better to beat our enemies with the rules than at gunpoint.  We’ll try that out as an option.  That’s why Steve Bannon went to jail willingly.  So that we can peacefully enact justice for these perpetrators.  But submission to them isn’t in the cards.  And they will be surprised by how much justice we all expect.  It won’t be long, and they won’t laugh as they did today.  Bannon can be nice and call it justice.  MAGA people can call it retribution.  I’ll call it revenge.  And they have it coming in large doses. 

Bannon earned his man card. Did the show right up to the moment he had to go to jail. That’s how you fight!

The Ten Commandments in Every Louisiana Public School is a Great Idea: I would say they should be in every government building

I would say almost everyone gets the Bible wrong.  Religion is often a weapon of the controller over the controlled, no matter where it has been contemplated.  To wash away the positive effects of the Bible but to keep the controlling aspects brought to us by the Roman Empire, the Bible spawned two of the world’s largest religions, Judaism and Christianity, and caused a response with Islam, another religion created to unify vast amounts of people toward a set of ideas that outside forces could easily control.  But the Bible by itself is much more than that, and I have always thought that removing the Ten Commandments from any government building, or society in general, was a terrible, progressive idea.  And all advocates for doing so should be punished for their intentional destruction of society.  The Bible is a fantastic book, and it is scary to think that if not for the Greeks, a very organized society that advanced itself with an empire of its own, without their power and purpose of civilization, the Bible under the Septuagint would have never survived the centuries.  The Bible is one of the rare, lost books to have survived that period, before the burning of the Library at Alexandria, and, astonishingly, we have access to it.  Wherever the values of the Bible have been followed, society has thrived in ways that good thinking tends to produce.  And at the core of that thinking is the Ten Commandments, or what I would call the keys to all foundation laws that can build a prosperous society.  What the Jews started with Moses was the essential ingredient to a positive, self-governed society, which is the root of all the success of America.  And that the enemies of America understand this, which is why they want to destroy the Bible and promote a society of godless heathens who worship at the feet of aristocrats and kings power hungry and corrupt beyond reason, and incredibly short-sighted on global affairs. 

This sets the stage for what we are seeing coming out of Louisiana by Governor Jeff Landry, who has signed a law requiring the display of the Ten Commandments in all classrooms in public schools.  I think that’s a fantastic idea, and I would go much further by requiring the Ten Commandments in every government building.  The Ten Commandments, as passed down to us through the Bible, have proven to give rise to a society that can build on itself and survive from one generation to another.  Before the Bible was widely printed and understood by individuals, society could not have shared values that did not come from a regional king or overlord.  So, the publication and dispersal of the Ten Commandments to mass audiences have been some of the most incredible things ever to happen to the human race, as far as individual empowered common cause is concerned.  It makes sense not to kill people.  It makes sense not to sleep with your neighbor’s wife or any wife but your own.  (and yes, you should have a wife or husband and build families as a personal possession)  You shouldn’t steal.  It would be best if you weren’t jealous of what other people have.  Even though common sense should guide your thoughts away from destructive behavior, the Ten Commandments were written down to share with a mass audience who have taken that common thinking and built several successful societies that last to this day.  And those who want to destroy those societies want to take away their strength, so they work against the Bible in any way they can.  That’s why any culture that works against the Bible and the values in it should be considered terrorist in their intentions and subversive and prosecutable.  This isn’t a debate.  History flushes out the correct thoughts quite righteously. 

I will never forget the reverence for Biblical value when I visited the Westgate Tower in Canterbury, England, and saw the jail cell where Robert Cushman, one of the first investors in the Mayflower voyage, was kept.  The Church of England was an oppressive group, and they were constantly at war with the Pope as Catholicism interpreted religious merit.  Cushman was a Puritan from the new Protestant movement, which the king of England was struggling with to maintain control, so as a street vendor and grocer, Cushman was thrown into the Westgate Tower to punish him for his religious beliefs.  The same kind of persecution we see today for the same reasons, such as Steve Bannon, Peter Navarro, and President Trump.  So, the Pilgrims fled England and Europe to pursue religious freedom and start their own colony, which would become the United States.  Whenever we talk about the separation of Church and State, this is the context everyone should understand.  Religious law is the foundation of our country.  Those who want to remove Biblical references, such as the Ten Commandments, wish to destroy the creation of the most prosperous nation in the world.  So, they are using the reason that America was created as a means of destroying America because people don’t understand the context of American law.  Without the Ten Commandments, there is no foundation for a law and order society governed by individual input.  Visiting that cell of Cushman in the Westgate Tower was one of the most inspirational things I have ever done and was much more significant than just a religious reference.  America started in that cell in the Westgate Tower, and thank goodness some people questioned the tyranny of their time from the churches of Europe like Robert Cushman. 

It doesn’t matter what religion people are in the world; they should thank existence that the Bible survived out of that period to be in our hands today.  And America has every right and obligation to put Biblical law at the center of our society.  The world can cry and whine because they don’t want what’s best for a free society.  Not even religious understandings work authentically on this matter as Cushman and his pilgrims fled the Church as a form of state control and used that same Bible as the foundation of their power and control.  But whenever forces are trying to remove the Bible from public consideration, you are looking at enemies seeking menace at the expense of personal freedoms, and that can’t be tolerated.  So, I’m a massive fan of what they are doing in Louisiana.  I’d like to see the Ten Commandments everywhere and much more often because the separation of church and state issue is a complete fiction by hostile agents of evil around the world.  America was created to separate the right to worship the Ten Commandments away from state control of religion in general, which is what they had in Europe at the time and caused many of the miseries that the world suffers from presently.  Such postures are purposeful in their intentions to destroy the human race if they do not fall under the compliance of the latest tyrant on the world stage.  Affirming the Ten Commandments is smart and is the first step toward a civil society that is productive and beneficial to all the individuals involved.  And the Bible itself is one of the most fabulous creations ever to survive.  And it should be revered much more than we do.  Because if we did, the world’s bad guys would become much clearer as a reference.  This is why they hate the Bible so much and seek its destruction as a public consideration.  They want to remain hidden and the Bible flushes them out, for all to see.

All Mobs and Riots Should Be Prosecuted: They are not expressions of ‘free speech,’ but ‘disturbing the peace’

If there is a lesson we should have learned by now, color revolutions don’t just happen.  They are not First Amendment protests protected by the Constitution; they are occurrences of “disturbing the peace” and should be prosecuted—all of them.  The people who advocate for them should be prosecuted to the furthest extent of the law, and their behavior should not be tolerated in the least, especially if they impact the traffic and enjoyment of the life of other people.  Riots in the streets and all mob activity are provoked into action by the kind of communist radicals who want to use discomfort and terrorism to drive a political narrative that people usually wouldn’t choose for themselves, and if left alone, people don’t think such things.  They don’t think to gather and protest some issues under anger and a show of mass force.  People falsely assume that such things are part of the American life, the life of expressing themselves as a democracy, a people who freely rule themselves.  But all those occurrences are violations of the Republic for which we indeed are, and not some flee-bitten socialist country as they have in Europe where the masses are blown upon by hidden powers from the shadows to express their discontent publically, in the form of flash mobs, burnt buildings, overturned cars, and even worse.  We have a representative republic where we vote for our people to run the government.  If we don’t like their job, we can vote them out.  Color revolutions and violent mobs intend to inflict fear, cause work stoppages, and enforce social change through dissatisfied people who want things to happen faster and more radically than our election process allows.  Ultimately, the participants wish for more from the government’s power than just the routine maintenance of their lives from a distance.  They wanted to force the power of government to do some menace, and there was never any good from the communist activity inspired by Karl Marx’s pages. 

Ultimately, the bill for these social enterprises goes straight to the door of some liberal billionaire and has for years, including the first sign of college riots in the 1940s and 1950s.  Even going back to the labor movement of the 1800s, mobs of collective protest would gather together to show their force of collective action against something they wanted to change, and the threat was by a show of force.  The problem is that people do not do these kinds of things by themselves.  A shadowy few always inspire them.  Where do people know where to gather and protest? Who prints the signs and puts up the social media posts?  It’s not the organizers, that is for sure.  It’s the people who blow into their ears who start all these protests, and those whispers come from the political shadows of hostile agents of the American way of life.  It’s not a right or privilege to shut down a highway.  Or block traffic with hundreds or thousands of losers carrying a sign trying to stir the public toward some social issue.  The purpose of the force is to insight fear with the masses to change a law and order society from the logic of contemplative thought.  The goal is to wear down the boldness and resolution of a society based on laws and to change those assumptions into fearful appeasement of the mobs in question.  And those mobs never just happen.  They are provoked, created, and sponsored by domestic enemies of the peace, and it’s time we admit this to ourselves and prosecute the behavior.  And stop assuming we have some ridiculous commitment to the practice because we never learned the nature of civics.  It’s not a First Amendment expression of a free society.  It’s disturbing the peace. 

All those riots that we saw during the Trump administration were planned hostilities intended to commit harm to our nation and its people with a promise of violence.  They didn’t occur organically.  The protests over police brutality and other issues of race had nothing to do with the victims perpetrated by communist revolutionaries who have taken over poor neighborhoods of color and nationality, who function from tempers and not logic. They are an exploited people meant to do the dirty work of hostile terrorists to America in general, and their purpose during Trump’s term, and what they are planning to do this next time, is to use fear to provoke legislation to preserve their liberal world order, not the logic of a free people working together to run a republic.  Riots and mobs intend to replace logic with fear and anxiety and to topple legislation to appease chaos.  All organized mobs are incidents of disturbing the peace and are attempts to overthrow our elected government, and they must be prosecuted to the greatest severity that the law allows.  The riots we saw with Trump came from the communist left; they didn’t organically form out of self-expression.   They were organized to inflict misery on logic and to scare society into supporting communist left causes through default, and it is time we recognize the practice for what it is, going back to all mass protests in America and all other places in the world.  Riots and mobs are made; they don’t form.  People don’t just sit down and plan them.  They are provoked and built into our culture through the communism of Karl Marx’s work in Europe, which the rest of the world adopted, thinking they were expressions of free speech.  They never work out that way; they are disturbances of sovereign people purposely perpetrated to take away those freedoms through the illusion of mass compliance.

We have to talk about this because we’re going to see a lot of desperate Democrats in the months to come.  Not just from all these Supreme Court cases that have not gone in their direction, they will form up mobs to inspire fear in the courts to rule away from the Constitution and for the communist organizers of flash mobs and violent thugs.  And, of course, once they expire all their legal warfare against Trump and the MAGA march continues and grows, they will turn toward the barely masked occurrences of mobs to promise violence to those who surrender their logic to the power of mass social discourse backed by a promise of social unrest.  And that is against the law and is prosecutable.  Just like a bunch of teenage kids can be arrested for playing music too loud in their cars, mobs of losers can be prosecuted for violating the personal rights of thousands of people who find their peace disturbed by hostile agents of doom.  And whores to a social order where minority communist insurgents working from a billionaire status of resources fund these expressions of chaos from the comfort of their offices and living rooms while dumb fools who don’t know any better hit the streets in a show of force thinking because they aren’t brilliant, that they are participating in Constitutional expressions of the First Amendment when in reality they are criminals harming others and their peaceful existence.  And many people from the first Trump term have yet to be punished.  And they are planning all that and more during a second term.  Isn’t it interesting that most riots have disappeared during Biden’s term?  Why do you think that is?

Supreme Court’s Ruling on Bump Stocks: Without unregulated gun ownership, you can’t have a civil society

Here’s the deal, everyone: gun control is not a thing.  Restricting people’s access to guns by government controls is never going to be a thing in America.  The Bump Stock Ban that was initiated by President Trump during his term, as a bone to the communist left, is an excellent example as the Supreme Court ruled against the banning of the device that simulates automatic fire from semi-automatic weapons, as used in the Las Vegas shooting where innocent concert dwellers were pummeled with gunfire, and many were killed needlessly.  Immediately in reaction to the shooting, the communist left was looking for gun control legislation and a rules-based attack on the Second Amendment, and President Trump caved, thinking that if he threw them a bone, they’d be happy and go away.  That is how we have ended up with a lot of dumb laws and legal interpretations over the years and how the communist left has sought to undermine our entire society.  News flash, we don’t want to be like those crappy European countries, or like Australia, New Zealand, or any country that has lots of gun laws and bans on weapons.  It doesn’t surprise me that the Supreme Court voted 6-3 to leave the ban because the Second Amendment isn’t there as a right granted to the public; it’s there to limit the government’s powers over the people.  And we know now, more than ever, that the government is far more dangerous than guns in society.  Without guns, the government spirals out of control detrimentally, and corruption is soon to follow because they don’t fear the people.  The government needs to fear the people they work for.  Without guns, there is no respect because the government has all the power.  Guns are essential to keep all the human temptations toward sinful behavior regulated not out of respect but out of self-preservation.  And that Supreme Court finally gets it, as they are ruling on more issues that are just as logical.

All mass shootings need to be investigated as actions of government involvement.  Much like they did with the Kennedy assassination, where they pick a loner with all kinds of crazy thoughts and steer them through various means toward an action they want done, is a common problem.  The FBI has a lot to answer to, as does the CIA.  They have a lot to explain about the Las Vegas shooter, which they have never bothered with.  They can’t be trusted to order a pizza, let alone investigate mass shootings, which they often have their hands all over, hoping to create mass carnage in hopes that people will be scared into voting for more gun control.  We have seen ruthlessness of all governments, especially in the United States in recent years, that demonstrates a willingness to kill innocent people to advance political narratives.  And when it comes to all mass shootings, most of the time, they are not so spontaneous.  A tip-off trail is usually there for all to see, such as the trans shooter in Nashville.  But nobody ever stops the event from happening, and immediately after the shooting, we have the communist left demanding more gun control as if we could trust a centralized government that was behind such atrocities, such as COVID-19, for instance, with our very lives.  No thanks; we don’t need the government to act like our long-lost parents.  Just build highways, have a military, issue our driver’s licenses, and shut the hell up and mind your own business.  We don’t want kings and aristocrats ruling over us and deciding what we can and cannot have.  And we need guns to make sure the government doesn’t feel like it can get too pushy.  Because when they think people don’t have guns, they always, 100% of the time, abuse their power.

And this Bump Stock thing was a Trump deal, and people were still against it.  Yes, people still support Trump and will happily vote for him again.  But from the beginning, we knew the Supreme Court would rule this way because it’s the only way to rule.  Only an activist court not following the Constitution would think otherwise.  All these other armpit countries out there in the world would do a lot better if they had a set of laws like we do in the United States, with our Constitution.  However, we have a Constitution in America, and the Second Amendment is one of the critical foundations of law that cannot be tampered with.  Bump Stocks and much more must be available to a population to keep the government from getting too far over their skis in grabs for power.  Just because President Trump supported the ban doesn’t mean people unthinkingly follow some leaders.  Trump got it wrong, as he got a lot of things wrong.  He was suckered by the communist left, in much the way that Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates suckered him over the Covid bioweapon.  It wasn’t just January 6th that was an inside job; most public violence is caused by the government, in service to the government, to trick people into giving the government more power.  And when those same people suckered Trump, most of the public understood what was happening.  That’s why we have a Supreme Court, to provide a backstop to much of this unconstitutional insanity by hostile agents of big government loons seeking problems to advance their social menace. 

Philosophically speaking, I don’t think you can have a civil society without a heavily armed public.  The Second Amendment was never meant for hunting.  It was meant to keep humanity’s greed in check as they moved into government positions and had to stave off the temptations to abuse their power.  There has never been an instance in human history where too much power in the hands of government worked out for the people being governed.  The United States was never created to be like other countries; it was meant to be unique, so we have always been reluctant to get involved in other people’s wars.  We are isolationists because the rest of the world is too stupid to push away their governments and demand their freedom from the tyranny of the corrupt.  We’re talking about the same world that killed Socrates for corrupting the youth.  Who conspired to kill Julius Caesar by insurrectionists in the senate.  And conspirators who killed Jesus Christ just for existing.  It’s not an accident that America has the highest GDP in the world; it’s because the government hasn’t been allowed to stop people’s ambitions in life.  And you can bet, without the Second Amendment, that America would be like they tried to make it with Covid, a power-hungry government that would seek to micromanage the whole world and get in the way of everything, and attempt to rule through fear wherever possible.  An unarmed society would be a victim to government under such conditions, and the only reason we have not yet fallen to such a fate is because we have the Second Amendment.  Because there are more guns than people, and the largest army in the world is the private one shared by property ownership by American citizens.  So it’s great that the Supreme Court saw the obvious.  But that’s just the tip of an iceberg of rulings that must be turned the other way because they were created without the Constitution to limit the government’s powers.  And that’s just how it is and will continue to be.

All Unionized Labor Should Be Illegal if Tax Money is Involved: They want to be highly paid without the results to justify it

There is, of course, more to the story.  I certainly heard the exasperation in the Louder with Crowder team as they investigated the horrendous story of the massive mishandling of a Butler Tech intern at the Butler County jail, which led to sex and the corruption of a minor in really disastrous ways.  As the story unfolded and all the adults involved pointed at each other for the blame, I saw on people’s faces and could hear in their words that they were exasperated by the lack of responsibility provided by the adults.  And here’s the thing: just a few days before this story broke, I had a chance to talk to Sheriff Jones quite a bit, and I am sure he and I agree on much more than we disagree with.  If we watched a bunch of old westerns on a Saturday afternoon, we would likely like the same things about them and share a sense of justice that would be enjoyable.  As people, as it is with most people, we agree on most things.  If we had a Thanksgiving dinner together, along with a bunch of other random people, I know there would be a lot more in common than not.  Differences occur when individual people try to bend themselves toward group-oriented consensus, where they toss their values out the window in trade for the power of group rule.  And that is what is going on with this Butler County case and why all the adults are complicit.  And why is the little girl being prosecuted while all the adults slither into the background to hide behind their labor unions and collective bargaining agreements?  This is why they are in labor unions so that the power of the group can leverage responsibility away from them in case something goes wrong, which it certainly did in this case. 

Probably the most guilty person in all this is the Butler Tech teacher, Aaron Fitzgerald, who ran the criminal justice program and was responsible for putting that 17-year-old girl unsupervised into a jail with a bunch of criminals and murderers, so often that she established sexual relationships with them.  Even more, some of the inmates were claiming her as a wife and were trying to “lock her down,” so we aren’t talking about a casual mistake that happened once or twice.  It happened repeatedly, systemically, and it was how Aaron Fitzgerald ran his program and the dangers he put the kids in with his permissive attitude. I would further blame the board at Butler Tech for their permissive, progressive attitudes about sex and their behavior in public, such as Julie Shaffer from the Lakota school board has shown to all the adults in charge, and the breadcrumbs of the blame certainly fall at their doorstep.  The Louder with Crowder crew went to Aaron’s house to talk to him about this case, and he freaked out.  But what was revealed was that he had a nice home in a very nice neighborhood.  That in itself isn’t uncommon in Butler County, Ohio.  But his sense of entitlement is something we had just witnessed on the whole Lakota schools superintendent issue, where reckless sexual lifestyles destroyed that guy once the public learned just how bad they were.  These are unionized employees with a sense of entitlement that is common in most labor union activity, where they want to be paid top dollar for some of the worst results that come from any labor activity.  They want all the money without any responsibility.  And when they get into trouble, as they certainly have in Butler County, Ohio, they circle the wagons and blame everyone who isn’t in the union.  In this case, the only person without a labor union relationship is the little girl. 

Over the years, I have argued this point extensively, and the impact of the disaster hasn’t changed.  I think it should be illegal for any labor union to be connected in any way to a taxpayer dollar.  We went down that path in 2012 when we thought we had a good governor in Kasich before everyone got a hold of him and destroyed him into just another progressive.  Sheriff Jones and I were on opposite ends of that issue, and they managed to hang on to their government unions for a while longer.  These days, President Trump has the labor union vote, so everyone is in a big Republican tent these days on the issue.  But it doesn’t change what labor unions are.  And what you get with them is too expensive, and the performance is terrible.  In this Butler Tech case, the measure of success is whether they have kids to put in the program.  Not what they learn or what happens to them along the way.  Unionized labor attached to government has been a disaster, and what you get from them is a horrendous performance with a perpetual sense of entitlement, like they are owed their jobs.  And they don’t feel they have to compete with anybody else to have them.  Then, when something goes wrong, they collectively circle the wagons and protect each other from the results.  Their goals are not in performance but in concealment and protection from expectations in results. 

Sheriff Jones, the same guy who talks to me about law and order and not putting up with terrorists coming into our community, took the union position on this Butler County jail case, saying that their prosecution of the girl was based on her admission.  And that all the kids sign a waiver (I don’t think sodomizing kids was on the sheet) and that she was almost 18, so that’s close enough.  She could be hired into the jail in a few months anyway.   And he said these things to reporters, thinking they were perfectly acceptable statements in a sane world.  And I know he doesn’t believe any of those things, yet he was saying them, as all brotherhood members do when one of them gets into trouble.  That’s why those kinds of people seek union membership.  And labor unions aren’t just a disaster in government occupations.  In the private sector, if you call up a supplier looking for your thing, and the person you are talking to can see it on a shipping dock through a window, waiting for someone to put it on a skid to be loaded onto a truck.  But they can’t load it themselves because they need a union guy to do it, so they have to wait for him to come off his 4-hour break, watching Loony Toons on his cell phone to load the truck.  That is how it is with all unionized labor and why they aren’t competitive in the world marketplace.  They cost too much, do too little, and when you need to know who’s responsible, they never admit to anything.  When they get into trouble, they rally behind their brother and sisterhoods to protect each other from judgment.  And that is why everyone involved gets away with horrendous behavior.  The only people who pay are those who are not in the union.  The union members, or those who directly benefit from the unionized labor, get away with everything because it’s part of their collective bargaining strategy.  If you try to pin them down on something then they take the labor away completely, making enforcement of policy nearly impossible.  So everyone just avoids punishment and discipline from bad decisions.  And it’s so disgraceful that it takes logic and good people and turns them into grotesque monsters who perpetuate evil to get easy and unearned paychecks, as is the case with Aaron Fitzgerald and many others.
