Beer Drinkers and Wine Tasters: A reality in politics that the Never-Trumpers haven’t figure out yet

A stark contrast was evident to me during a very expensive dinner I was at with many very smart people from all kinds of political backgrounds. The people who were trying to argue for Ron DeSantis being a good alternative to Trump were also the same people claiming to be experts on red wine, white wines, and their various vintages. I’m not a drinker at all, by any means. There is a running joke in my family that I enjoy only three kinds of beverages; the first is water. The second is milk. And the third is Mello Yello, my favorite soft drink. In many ways, I have never grown up to think of adult beverages as something I value. I still drink like a pre-teen, and I have no desire ever to change that. But at social occasions, I will sip on a beer or wine to experience life as its presented. I’ll do that to some extent with alcohol, but when it comes to other things, such as marijuana, in any shape or form, I have a lifelong policy against it, and I will never join in the behavior. I have never done that kind of thing privately or in a group setting, and never will. But I’ll try what they offer with beer and wine and listen to people tell me why one wine is better. Yet I don’t know the difference between vintage wine or new wine from Kroger that was plucked from grapes last week. It all tastes the same to me. And to that point, I’ve never been a small fork, big fork kind of person either. Which fork do you use for your salad, and which for your main meal? My sophistication on these kinds of things is to pull out my pocketknife, which I always have on, even when wearing a $1000 suit, and stick it into my food to eat as if I were at a campfire. 

That’s when a very smart and highly educated guy who was trying to help me told me that I was drinking my red wine in the wrong glass as one of our waitresses wanted to pour me some from the most recently opened bottle. I put a wine glass in front of her to pour; she hesitated as this guy explained to me why. “You are supposed to use the wide-rimmed glass, not the narrow one; the red wine likes to breathe.” I then looked and noticed a difference, so I put the bigger glass in front of her and she poured away, and everyone at the table giggled at my expense, which I played up. I have no desire to know those kinds of things, and I think it’s funny that people think those kinds of things are important, and to them, it is. I prefer to think about really big things, and those kinds of topics seem small to me. But jokes caused by the circumstances are opportunities to find common ground, so we were all having the costly dinner dressed in our best attire, and we had a little fun at my lack of knowledge on these things. In my world, I am happy to offer other people some emotional leverage on me because it makes all the other discussions easier. My thoughts are rigid, so a social perspective concession helps make hard conversations more digestible. But because of the news of the hour, I noticed something about this event, which was paramount to the trouble with politics.

Even after all the trouble Trump is in, the RINOs and Never Trumpers are mystified as to why people still support him. The wine-drinking Democrats who locally can be found in my area at Cooper’s Hawk but generally are found at wine tastings at Martha’s Vineyard, Mackinac Island, and other highbrow places are mystified as to why Trump is leading in the polls and he actually gained in strength after the Alvin Bragg indictment. With the same skill that they put into worrying about what silverware to use during dinner or which glass the wine goes in, they are making decisions about politics that do not represent the beer-drinking public, the general people out there who actually vote. The same people who will drink a warm Bud Light out of the back of a pickup truck on a night at the local demolition derby. People do not want aristocrats who understand the difference in wines when the world is falling apart. People don’t want to be ruled by some dumb rules as to which fork to use during dinner. Most people will never have a chance to attend one $500-a-plate dinner in their lives and think about the difference between white wine and red wine. And they certainly don’t want to be ruled by people who do, and when you peel back the layers of the “hate Trump at all cost” movement, they haven’t yet figured out that people don’t like them because of their aristocratic wealth or access to the finer things in life. People want a government that works for them, which is what Trump has offered. And they’ll crawl through broken glass to get it. 

It’s the beer drinkers who decide elections. And in a world where people work hard to be elite so that they can work their way into social respect because they know what fork to use or what glass the wines go in, they expect some kind of payoff, which has been ingrained in us from thousands of years of evolution. But that’s not what people want out of their elected representatives, and much of our political class has never figured it out, and realizing that destroys assumptions they have had about life their entire lives. It’s not that the finer things in life aren’t fine, or shouldn’t be enjoyed. I enjoy them when I get a chance to experience them, even if my idea of eating a finely cut steak is to punch it with my pocket knife and to stick it in my mouth like a skewer. The key to political victory is in the beer drinkers who are just as happy with a warm beer out of the back of a pickup truck as with a fine bottle of white wine. Or maybe not even drinking at all, and would prefer a glass of water to intoxication of any kind. The masses are not running for a path in life to aristocracy. And they don’t want to worship people who are so pretentious. There will always be people who will want to take those extra steps in life, but that is on them, not on a social respect that they expect will come with their knowledge of fine wines and cheese.    Even though he is very rich and can afford the best things in life, Trump is just as happy with a bucket of chicken as he is with a great steak from an expensive restaurant. And that’s why no matter what the aristocrats of society throw at Trump, people will vote for him anyway because he has shown a disdain for those pretentious types, not a reverence. And that is ultimately why those who have spent much of their life thinking about such things, like James Comey and many others, hate Trump so much. Because Trump represents a rejection of everything they value as a civilization. And Trump is a reminder that that is what voters value as well, and that realization hurts their feelings and dictates their political persuasion as RINOs and Never Trumpers who will never understand until it’s too late for them.

Voter Integrity in Ohio with Frank LaRose: How Republicans win everywhere, and not just with swing voters

It’s not really a big secret, but it’s probably the most important thing in the world regarding elections. Yes, Ron DeSantis did wonderfully in Florida the second time around; the first time, he could barely squeak out a win. But after an excellent first term, DeSantis was awarded with re-election by a very wide margin. Yet as much as he may have deserved it, the massive voter turnout in his favor didn’t just happen. What the real cause of it was that DeSantis worked on the election laws in Florida and made it harder to cheat so that in that next election, some of the old Democrat tricks that are applied all over the country weren’t so easy to perform. And that resulted in more votes for him being counted against an essentially rigged system. Our elections have not been secure for a very long time, and the little talked-about secret is that the powerful know about it and have allowed it to continue because it keeps them in power. Yet, if elections were tightly controlled in America, unbiased, of course, Republicans would win a majority of the time everywhere, in state races, in federal races, both House and Senate, governors, and especially presidents. A lot of professional pundits will say that we are a 47 – 53 country where either Republicans or Democrats will trade those bottom and top numbers every time, that there will never be any more blowout elections because we don’t have that kind of country, we are split down the middle with independents determining election outcomes. That is hogwash; that’s what the cheaters want you to think. The reality is that election fraud makes us look like a 50/50 nation while we are a conservative-leaning nation quite dramatically. The Florida example is just one of them, and DeSantis, not through performance but through election reform, turned it from a purple state to a solid red MAGA state for Republicans. 

Ohio is another state that had been trending purple but has been heading solidly toward a bright red state. And as much as I’d like to say that candidates like President Trump and J.D. Vance were great, it’s not that they won over a bunch of swing voters to win; it’s that Ohio has a fantastic secretary of state in Frank LaRose, who has made it very hard to cheat during elections. I had a chance to listen to him directly talk about election integrity in Ohio, and I put some of the videos on this site to review. I’ve met Frank LaRose many times, but this latest time was interesting because what Ohio has been doing regarding election integrity is quickly becoming the template for the rest of the country going into the 2024 election. Republicans would be wise not to worry about the issues so much on this one because that’s not what is going to win elections. What will win elections, and give the House a supermajority in Congress, and give control back to the Republicans in the Senate and, of course, the White House, is more election security.  Frank LaRose has put his hands around this election integrity problem, and it has been showing. And he’s done it by pushing photo I.Ds on election day. Voting machines that have a paper receipt for cross verification, and by making it illegal to have any machine connected to the internet. And on early voting, which Frank LaRose has testified to in Pennsylvania, where they have had a trainwreck there, Ohio logs the entries as they come in, whereas, in places like Pennsylvania, they don’t touch them until after the election, which is why they are still counting ballots well past election day and can no longer give those results on election day. 

A great example of the difference in election integrity by having a great Secretary of State could be seen in recent supreme court elections. Wisconsin just lost a Republican seat to a Soros-backed radical. The same thing was brewing to happen in Ohio, but because of election integrity in Ohio, Sharon Kennedy was able to win as Chief Justice and avoid progressive interference on the bench the way it has now happened in Wisconsin. Because of loose election laws in Wisconsin, the extreme progressive Janet Protasiewicz was able to win, giving liberals the new majority, which many think could be dangerous in establishing better election laws for better voter integrity. That is the real game that is going on out there, and the best way to deal with it is by investing in good Secretaries of State who can do as Frank LaRose has in Ohio, and that is get control of the voting system and make it as fair as possible, and secure. And by doing that, the truth of American elections will become obvious quickly. Republicans will win almost everywhere and by a wide margin. Where election chaos is allowed, or even promoted, then, and only then, will Democrats be competitive. America is not a 50/50 country determined by swing voters. It’s more of a 60/40 country in favor of Republicans, and that becomes obvious when you force voting machines to be off the internet and have voter photo I.D. Once Frank LaRose became Secretary of State, we saw in Ohio that Ohio was no longer purple. It wasn’t just Trump; the margins were consistent for other races, with very similar results. And in Florida, it used to be that certain counties were always late in reporting, so they could see how much they had to cheat to push the Democrats over the top. But DeSantis made that action much harder; since then, we have seen better election day results. Not just because of the candidate but because it was more reflective of the vote totals of the actual demographics. Everywhere that better election laws are reformed to prevent cheating, it will quickly become evident that Republicans will perform far better everywhere than the previous national trends have indicated. And that’s the lesson for all the swing states, like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.

It should be noted that even with all the debate in Georgia between Brian Kemp and Stacy Abrams after Kemp enacted better election methods making it harder to cheat, his election against Abrams wasn’t even close. The same could be said in Texas with Beto O’Rourke. Many thought that Texas was turning from red to purple, but with some tightening of the election methods to make it more fair for voter representation and security to protect the integrity of the voter, a lot of these liberal radical challengers have fallen away. And that is a little secret that nobody has really been talking about on the nightly news. And the same trends would be seen all over the country, even in places like California and New York. People just aren’t that liberal, and Democrats have only been able to gain power because of election fraud, whether its illegal aliens voting, Democrat cities stuffing ballots without supervision, early voter tampering with Facebook manipulation, bad voter rolls where dead people are still voting, several times,  it has only been through cheating that Democrats have been able to keep election results close in their favor. But if states give themselves a great Secretary of State like we have in Ohio, like Frank LaRose, they will all see a margin swing in the Republican direction of around 12%. And by doing that simple thing, Republicans will win most of their races in head-to-head matchups with any Democrat; it doesn’t matter who it is. Voter integrity is the key, not so much the policy discussion. Before 2024, states need to follow what Frank LaRose has been doing in Ohio, and if they do, Republicans will win big everywhere.

A Good Friday To Remember: Anti-MAGA forces missed it completely

I have loved Good Friday for many years since I had a unique experience in Mexico, right in the middle of the Yucatan Peninsula. I don’t know that it was a life-changing moment so much as it was an affirmation of a lot of work on my part to learn something new. I had spent more than twenty years reading voraciously a number of subjects, and during one particular Good Friday, I happened to be at Chichen Itza in Mexico, a destination I had wanted to see for myself since I was a teenager. Prior to this trip, I never cared for Good Friday, the idea of Christ being killed by institutionalism has always bothered me, and it was not something I wanted to celebrate. I certainly didn’t like the Bible story that I was born a sinner, weak and meek by heritage, not by my own design, and that Christ needed to die for me so that I would not be locked into eternal persecution by a wrathful god, for all of existence. I always felt sorry for Jesus and had an intimate relationship with him after playing many roles in the Passion Play at my Church as a kid.   I felt I had a unique understanding of what Christ went through, and it never seemed fair to me. I always wanted the version of the story where Christ escaped from the cross and killed all his enemies and fed their flesh to the dogs while their harems of lovers cried over their dead carcasses. The idea of sacrifice was never OK with me, not in Christianity, and certainly not in other cultures, which is why my wife and I were in Chichen Itza studying the ruins there of a Mayan culture that had human sacrifice at the center of it, all day, every day. I had many questions, and I needed to visit the site to set things right in my mind about them.

After, my wife and I swam in a local cenote near the Chichen Itza complex, as it was very hot, and the cave water in the cenote felt great. It was crowded, it seemed as if everyone from the local town had the same idea since it was an impoverished region where people lived in literal thatched huts, so nobody had swimming pools. I had put some of the video from that trip into a little promo video I did for Sheriff Jones at the time dealing with illegal immigration for the Liberty Township Tea Party that shows some of the sights from this trip, referred to here. We got to know the Mexican people very well on that trip, well beyond the media cameras, and saw how those people lived, and it was interesting. I couldn’t help but respect how hard they worked and how much they loved their families. Later, after we had cooled off, we stopped by a tiny town for lunch, and we were stunned by a flash parade recreating the Passion Play, where the entire village came out to watch or participate. There were thousands of people involved; it was quite astonishing. Now I respected the Passion Play a lot because I had been in many of them myself, playing all the main characters, from Jesus to Pontius Pilot to Roman soldiers. So, I had seen more than my fair share of Passion Plays, and this one was magnificent. They had great costumes; they had a Mexican Jesus stripped nearly naked with blood covering him, carrying a cross, with very authentic Roman soldiers surrounding him, and mobs of people crying after the suffering of Jesus. The entire town had come to a stop to witness this epic occasion. Because we were in the process of getting food, we happened to be on a street corner with a front-row seat to witness the whole thing. And we really couldn’t move until it was over, so we watched respectfully.    

I never forgot that Passion Play on that particular Good Friday in Mexico, pretty far away from America and the news of the night. A collision had occurred with me regarding personal experience regarding the Church, many millions and millions of words that I had read about these topics, my keen interest in politics, which I was thinking about intensely since the terrorist Barack Obama had just been elected under very suspicious methods, and the Republican Party was trying to figure out how to win over people from Mexico and Central America to vote their way as conservatives rather than liberals. According to the Koch brothers, they had a plan, which we now understand as RINOs, moving more toward liberals than holding tight to conservative values. And I was far enough away from my regular everyday life to think about all these things on that street corner, watching a very real Passion Play in Mexico by people who had given up their previous worship of Mayan and Aztec gods for the gods of the conquering Spanish, Catholicism, and the worship of Jesus Christ which they embraced with great vigor. Until then, I had always thought of foreign immigrants who wanted to come to America as often more American than those born in the world’s greatest country but took it for granted. I found that foreign immigrants shared my Passion for America more than the native people, so I have always had a great relationship with people from all over the world who came to America for the Constitution and the opportunities that come with it. Specifically in Mexico and most places considered “third world” I found the people in those places still had a very close relationship to religion and their families, and I love that about them.

With all that in mind, just the other day, I saw a report indicating that Democrats were perplexed why so many Latinos were supporting President Trump and the MAGA movement and not coming to America and voting for Democrats the way that the political class in Washington, D.C. thought they would. And the answer is easy; Democrats had presented themselves as a bunch of godless heathens, which was not attractive to immigrants from Mexico and Central America. Seeing many of those people as I did on Good Friday should have been evident to everyone. But the professional pundits had got it all wrong, and President Trump showed himself to be respectful of strong families and religion. So, of course, once Mexicans immigrated to America, once they learned the various politics would support the MAGA movement. They didn’t want a free lunch; they wanted the respect of good work and a government that would get out of their way so they could raise their families, which they cared about intensely. It’s for all those reasons that even now, I get along much better with people from foreign countries than I do from my own backyard because the immigrants have a romantic idea of America that I share with them. Whereas the dope-smoking losers from the American education system have created a bunch of lazy, entitled babies that look to the Democrat Party to feed them without having to get up off the couch. And the Democrats seem surprised by all this. But I’m not. If you look at the political scene today, it is not a surprise that Latinos are moving toward Trump; the MAGA Republicans are now filled with people of color, and there are lots of very strong women who are just as tough as Trump. There is a lot of diversity that the RINO Republicans missed the boat on wholly, which is now the core of the party. And those are demos that the Democrats lost because they simply presented themselves as the kind of communists that many of those immigrants were running from. And when Democrats presented themselves as antagonistic toward religion, that was the end of that. That’s why this particular Good Friday in 2023 is special and unique. A long-hatched plan is finally coming together, and where the rubber hits the road in politics, religion is at the core of what the future will bring. And the anti-MAGA forces missed it completely.

The Arrest of President Trump: It’s ‘Atlas Shrugged’ in real life, but with a better ending

It was eerily similar to the end of the great book Atlas Shrugged, where the arrest of John Galt resulted in the torture of the main character in similar ways as Jesus Christ was captured and tortured. The arrest of President Trump by a desperate, thieving government was almost a word-for-word script of the classic novel by Ayn Rand. Even though the book was always considered extremely over-the-top science fiction, we had now seen in 2023 the future so dystopian when that book was released in 1957 to be completely accurate. You could attribute the arrest and prosecution of President Trump to precisely the same reasons as John Galt was arrested. Or even Jesus Christ. It is beyond coincidence that all this is happening during the holy week, with Good Friday coming, where Jesus Christ was killed for his threat to the established order. It also reminded me of the killing of Socrates and many other names throughout history who have threatened the established order, which resulted in their arrest and torture to preserve their corruption from the eyes of the public. I’m sure objectivists will want to argue that President Trump is anything like the pure, Ayn Rand characters of flawless bravery, but it’s the only thing that came to my mind as I watched Trump fly on his big private plane to New York, to stay in his golden tower among the skyline, a lifetime of achievement building up to his remarkable life. And his life of individual achievement threatened this dystopian monstrosity of a corrupt government that wanted more than anything to destroy its rival. In this case, President Trump is the presidential frontrunner. You could almost place the villain of Atlas Shrugged, Mr. Thomson, who is the president of the United States, in that book with Joe Biden. But as bad as Atlas Shrugged is, as a story about how government abuses its power, the real world of this prosecution of President Trump is far worse and more sinister. Even Ayn Rand couldn’t imagine the evil we have witnessed in this obvious attempted destruction of Trump.

President Biden, like his fictional counterpart, Mr. Thompson from the book, knows what they have done. They acquired power through massive election fraud, and that evidence is clear for all. But this arrest of their political rival only confirms to the extreme extent the corruption we have seen on the surface. The fear they have shown toward Trump is something we have only established in the worst of our fictional explorations in movies and novels. A polite society does not even acknowledge this level of corruption, there are few mechanisms of psychology to acknowledge such a thing, yet there it was for us all to see. Trump being arrested by a phony legal premise and having his fingerprints taken and paraded around as a captive of tyrannical authority. It was the evil of a state-controlled government intent to suppress the ambitions of all people everywhere to the same sacrificial government as we have seen from the Aztecs, the practitioners of human sacrifice in the land of Canaan, or the cannibals of the South Pacific. These despots of tyranny only know one thing, which is governed by the dominant, the most power-hungry, and the most corrupt, and they seek to destroy any rivals to that understanding. Ayn Rand’s book about these forces has always been one of the best to put the finger on this very evil power and explain it to an audience as a work of philosophy that no human society had ever managed to capture. This tyranny was explored but not very well understood in the story of Christ. History has watched so many characters who take on an enormous persona for personal freedom emerge through history only to have the established order seek to preserve itself emphatically. But there hasn’t ever been a work of art that so intensely captured the nature of that evil than Atlas Shrugged. 

But where I have always thought that the end of Atlas Shrugged had John Galt compromised from the overall theme of the book, this arrest of President Trump was an awakening that I never thought I would ever see happen in the human race. Literally, the entire world watched; there was never a bigger stage, a more extensive example of abuse, of tyranny where all the stops of corruption were pulled out and laid naked on the stage for all to see. It almost had the theatrical impact of the play Equus, where the characters appear nude for the audience to tie their mind in knots from the morality of it all. Or the immorality of it instead. This arrest of President Trump is how the book Atlas Shrugged should have ended. Trump was bigger than the small-minded people seeking to arrest him. It had more of a Superman feel to it, where finally, a member of the human race had transcended the corruption and tyranny of thousands of years of small-minded abuse.   The same forces that used to burn members of the Protestant reformation at the stake were suddenly eclipsed by this massive figure that President Trump had become. The feeble government of Mr. Thomson only had corruption to blow into its sails as a shocked world saw them naked and afraid by the towering figure of Trump and the MAGA movement outgrowing their feeble attempts at control. This was a government that didn’t know what to do, so it did the unthinkable, and a moment in human history hatched a new kind of individualism. Trump had transcended their menace, the worst they could impose, and through it all, he looked bigger than the system itself.

The end of Atlas Shrugged resulted in the complete collapse of the government and its communist assumptions. The deal John Galt offered to the tyrannical government that imprisoned him was for the losers of existence to get out of the way of the producers who essentially were responsible for making everything. I’ve had a relationship with Atlas Shrugged for many years, and I have witnessed up close and very personally the extreme hatred the political left has for the book. It strips away an assumption made by Karl Marx and other leftist philosophers about how society is constructed. That teamwork is more important than individualism. But the truth is that the political left is slow, cumbersome, and bureaucratic, and they just get in the way of the fast-moving individuals who have all the answers and innovation at their fingertips. And the best thing in any society is to get out of the way of those people. Yet a government like Joe Biden’s can’t accept that reality, that they are just useless in the scheme of things, and that the power President Trump has is something no amount of government force could ever possess. And in their attempts to maintain that power over thousands of years of attempted government, they had never succeeded. Yet President Trump did something that history had never seen before; he transcended the state’s power in new ways. Characters like him in the past would have been burned at the stake, thrown to the lions, and killed a thousand other ways to prevent the reality from settling in that it is not the state that runs the world. It’s individuals. And probably no place else but America could such an ostentatious exhibition have ever been displayed. President Trump could have never even happened if not for our Constitution, free speech, and economic system. And because he did, he grew into something that even the most corrupt government in the world had lost control of. And that is a sequel to Atlas Shrugged that I have always wanted to see. It’s better than the book, and the future is much less bleak because of it.

The Communists Attack: What the actions of Alvin Bragg show about the menace that has been hiding in the background all along

I’ve explained it many times since the news of the Trump indictment was made known at the end of March 2023 that I think it’s probably the best thing that could have happened. It’s wonderful news, certainly not detrimental. I’ve been warning about this kind of thing for a long time, and people would say, “oh, that’s just too inconvenient to know about; I have to take my kid to soccer practice.” Throughout the last decade, many of those articles can be found by going through the search history on this site along the sidebar; I have talked about the communist infiltration of America so people could do something about it. At first, it came from the Soviets, from the deliberate KGB infiltration of our institutions during the late 50s and 60s. But we think incorrectly that communism went away with the Reagan presidency and the fall of the Berlin Wall. But no, it just went underground, and with the attempts of globalism, communism is their pick for the government of that one world order because it’s much easier for them to manage from the United Nations. And China, the propped-up country of globalism from the World Economic Forum, where the country went from a third-world country in the 1960s to the new superpower in the 2020s, it is that form of communism that the globalists and their controlled corporations have picked to rule. And that communism has infiltrated our American society in most of our institutions, as I have explained in detail by going on radio stations and writing many articles about it, most exhibited in the great Cleon Skousen book The Naked Communist. In it, the former FBI agent, back when the FBI was filled with good guys and not a bunch of communist sympathizers, Skousen provides the 45 Goals of Communism, which I read to everyone when I first started my Rumble channel. And now, finally, people can see with this Trump indictment that all that was true and then some. Communists are making their move, and their desperation is showing. 

When it was obvious that the 2020 election was rigged, that is why the first bit of information I offered to explain it to people was from that Skousen classic. It has been inconvenient for people to name the word communist into anything that was American because people just couldn’t bring themselves to admit to what degree it was a problem. Even President Trump has been reluctant to go there in his speeches. We have talked about socialism in an open context, especially regarding the Obama presidency, but as I and many others have done, we have shown that many of these insurgency figures, such as Obama was, had many communists in their background. And that would hold true for modern members of minority neighborhood anti-Capitalist groups such as where this New York DA comes from, Alvin Bragg. This communist movement has been with us, working in the background for longer than most people have been alive. Communism didn’t die with the Soviet Union; it just shifted to the emerging China. There are many more communists and socialists in the world than there are capitalists, who are at war with all competition. The globalists have been using the greed and manipulation of China to spread their European export, the communism of Karl Marx to the world for world domination, and we can see their effect most in our institutional controls, such as education, our judicial system, our entertainment, just as Skousen warned about in 1958. Most of the trouble we are seeing in the world now is coming from the global moves that the communists are making, and to not name them is to declare that nobody actually wants to solve the problem essentially. 

I remember specifically a radio interview I did on The Naked Communist while I was on a professional engagement in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I was in a fancy hotel restaurant having a very nice dinner with some power players saving the world on the economic end. We were all having a very nice time along a river that was pouring into Lake Michigan, from where all the fine wines were being poured into specific glasses designed to let the well-vintaged stuff breathe. I told everyone to excuse me momentarily while I went to the bathroom. I went back to my hotel room and did a 45-minute radio interview with a talk show on Cleon Skousen’s Naked Communist, which blew the doors off the audience. Then I returned to my table almost an hour later. People had been drinking, so they didn’t notice much that I had been gone, and we resumed our business talk very successfully. But when dealing with international commerce, as that talk was all about, the discussion about communism was not something even people drinking a lot of wine had the stomach for. It was OK to talk about kids, the sports they were in, and basic entertainment observations, such as what was happening with the Kardashians lately. But any discussion about communism in these governments we were dealing with was simply off the table. But the radio audience was captivated as if it was the first time they had ever heard such a thing. That just shows how sneaky the communists are, they penetrated our culture in such a way that nobody wanted even to discuss their very existence, and because of that, communism has grown into the monster that it is today. It was strange for me to have that Milwaukee experience because within the span of a few hours, I went from advanced talks about international commerce that were worth millions and millions of dollars to discussing communism, which to me was like having one large conversation about global concerns. But for the various members of the audience, the topics had to be separated to accommodate their sensitive understanding of history and the real threat that was actually in their own backyards.

I see the shock of many over this Trump indictment as a great thing. It forces people to look at this communist problem for what it is, finally. The blind trust that people have in our institutions has been dangerous. But yes, communism is a major problem in America, and it’s a global movement with literally billions of members. And they see America as the last bastion of freedom that stands against their political movement, and they are in full attack mode, just as I warned about now for decades. But people didn’t believe me. They were curious, but it was much easier to just laugh it off as a conspiracy theory. Yet I have gone way out of my way to educate people about these dangers, and now Alvin Bragg has made my job so much easier. People can see it for themselves, and it’s scary. But the monster in the closet was always there, even if people hid under their sheets. What we are seeing coming out of the New York DA office, and not just with Trump, but others, such as Steve Bannon from the Warroom podcast, it has been infiltrated by communists who realizes that the MAGA movement is the best form of populism that could kill their aims at global domination. And to meet that threat to their political order, they are crossing the lines and stepping out of the shadows for all to see. I think this is great because it forces people to wake up to a threat that has always existed. The communists are attacking because they are desperate. Over 100 years of plotting and scheming are being threatened by America’s self-defense, Bill of Rights, and Constitution as applied through MAGA Republicans. And they are being forced from the shadows to fight, and in doing so, are showing themselves for the first time in many cases, which is something I have wanted to see happen my entire adult life. So I’m quite happy about it. Indicting Trump was the best thing that could have happened.

The Communists Are Showing Themselves in our Judicial System: Just remember, Fox News destroyed itself by going against Trump

I know it’s painful to witness, but we now see the monster hatching out of an egg that the political left laid long ago. It’s hatching out of desperation, but it is breaking loose, and the little communist monster that has been growing there is coming out and showing its ugliness. That was obvious from the shock by many conservatives that the New York DA actually moved forward with a Trump indictment. But it’s been most evident in the long hunt of the political left to destroy Fox News, which is most revealed through the political left’s control of the judicial system. The audacious case of Dominion suing Fox News over their election coverage. It’s a battle plan that was hatched long ago and resided in the background of the Bar Association, where lawyers like teachers and almost all government workers have been liberalized through woke means to reshape our country into something resembling China more than America, and it was going to be so subtle that nobody would notice until it was too late. The old frog in the boiling water metaphor that many of us have been talking about for many years. The water has been turned up so gradually that the frog doesn’t think to jump out of a boiling pot until it dies.   The belief that our judicial system, if conquered like some chess piece in a game, could destroy our country was always the goal of the political left, and now they are cashing in their chips because they have to. President Trump’s polling numbers push them into it. They have to abuse their power because that’s the only way they can use power, and in the process, people see just how bad it has always been. Forget the conspiracy theories, we are in it now, and the outcomes won’t be what they think they will be. They are going to get more than they can handle and more. 

The political left believed that if they took out Fox News, they would gain control of political order in American politics by denying any competition. It’s the same dumb idea that all communist countries have attempted by eliminating any contrary opinion so that people with no other choice will have to listen to the regime that’s in power. In global politics, America was always the target of tyranny because that is the cause of most migration in the world, to get away from despot governments like China, Cuba, and all these other openly communist places. It’s no surprise that Chinese migrants are flooding the southern border through Mexico, hoping to get away from China. The chess players of global domination are OK with that action because they feel that illegal immigration will change the nature of America itself into something more receptive to communist rule. So they think it has worked in their favor. But the collision course is what happens when people have nowhere else to run, and all that is left are despot governments of tyranny. Then the fancy talk will no longer work, and violent engagements are all that will be left. The political left has been scheming for their entire existence to arrive today, so nobody should be surprised by what we see now. Many think Fox News represents the conservative parts of America, and for a while, they played that part to a good effect. But Rupert Murdoch is not conservative, and his family are not American patriots. He’s a foreigner looking to make money in America like anybody else. But when it comes to patriotism, that is not what Fox News was ever about. 

It won’t be the Dominion lawsuit that destroys Fox News, just to clarify before the political left claims that to be. Fox News sealed its fate as a destroyed network when Bill O’Reilly was pushed away, and Roger Ailes died. Once Roger was gone, the brain behind Fox News went with it, leaving a bunch of New York RINOs to run things in the wake. And when the election fraud occurred in 2020, they were more than willing to pile on to the removal of President Trump because they had a European mindset that wanted to see more moderate politics, “moderate” is more aligned with the communist takeover of the world as was happening everywhere else. So they didn’t fight very hard when it came time to discuss the election fraud issue, and when Dominion found itself the target of many conspiracies regarding the election that put Joe Biden in place, then we saw some of these mechanisms emerging quickly into our politics. Dominion had no other play, just like this New York DA has with Trump. All they have is intimidation to bully America into accepting hard communism. But they aren’t ready for the show and have had to show too many scary cards too early in the process. They will scare Americans further to the right out of self-preservation. So as bad as things look, what we see is better because, at least now, people can see what the threats have been.   The political left will learn a hard lesson, be careful what you wish for because once you get it, you have to live with the results. 

Fox News, on paper, can win its bluff case with Dominion easily.   The only real problem with the Fox case was that early in the election coverage, they interviewed people who claimed that Dominion could tamper with the election results by being connected to the internet.   And there is a lot of evidence that this is a problem, and Fox News should win its case easily. In such a free speech case, the way to mitigate any bias is to offer views from the other side of an argument, which by the content of the Fox News staff, the network itself already had in place. The only play that Dominion had was to sue, hoping to settle out of court, which the political left was happy about because it hoped it would drain away all their money and destroy their company. But even if Fox News does win its case. They will still be destroyed as a network because they have mismanaged themselves for this new generation, the cord-cutters. The Fox News audience, by this stage, has found other, more conservative networks to get their news from, leaving Fox to be more like CNN was years ago. The more captured assets they have on the network that are liberal, the fewer people will watch them. They are not even a fraction of the network that they were when Bill O’Reilly was there. The conservative audience has fractured now and gone underground mostly. And there, they will now do all the damage that the political left has been doing for years. It’s hard to hold power, and the political left will discover quickly that they do not have what it takes to maintain power, not that they have seized it in the way they have. The indictment of Trump will only make people angry and force them underground where they can now act as the left has for years, swiping away at the power of the communists away from the controls of Fox News. They’ll learn a hard lesson: that they were better when Fox News was more of a central location for conservatives because now, many dozens of competing networks have splintered off to be the new resistance. And the slow-minded communists won’t be able to keep up. But as Fox News struggles to survive by embracing Trump all too late in an attempt to stay viable in the marketplace, the political left can’t claim to have destroyed them. They destroyed themselves through lousy management and embracing the wrong priorities.

Trump is the Alternative to Violence: The government essentially gets one more election before the powder keg blows

No, this isn’t how it works, where Republicans live within the rules and are peaceful while Democrats instigate violence and mobs against those they disagree with. There are two primary reasons for the creation of President Trump, which Fox News is still trying to figure out, and that is the fiscal recklessness of both parties in state and federal governments. But much more than that is the position on violence when threats arrive against ordinary people, and there is no representation to meet those threats. A perfect example of this just occurred, where a report on NPR radio obviously provoked trans people to go out and buy guns, which looks to have influenced the latest school shooting in Nashville. NPR could easily have been blamed for stoking the fires of that killing of six people. But then there was a picture released by the Trump campaign of the President holding a baseball bat with the District Attorney of New York in the other picture looking as if it was a threat against the law. Trump said the picture was taken from a “buy American” campaign and didn’t imply violence. But everyone pretty much took it that way because Alvin Bragg has been trying to get a grand jury to essentially indict a ham sandwich and torpedo the Trump run for President in 2024 by abusing the law and weaponizing the legal system for purely political purposes. Personally, if Trump had intended violence, I thought it was appropriate. But the rest of the world was apocalyptic about the picture, especially Brit Hume on Fox News, who said it was inconceivable that Trump could think he could get away with such a threat and still be President. It was funny to watch the reactions of these so-called political pundits. They are clearly off from the sentiment of the rest of the country, which brings up some very interesting topics that need to be understood by the political mood of our country presently. 

Trump is not the leader as Brit Hume and the Fox News people want to think the world operates. This anti-Rino trajectory has been going on since before Nixon was President. But the public, in general, never really got over the assassination of Kennedy by CIA involvement, then the same level of involvement and the extreme abuse of the judicial system that removed Nixon from office. Other than Ronald Reagan, who was never quite the same after an attempt on his life failed to kill him, all the rest of the years before and since have essentially been CIA assets influenced by foreign instigators who have insinuated violence against people who do not pick their people for leadership. Most people feel, to some degree or another, that our politics are corrupt, and they have been looking for fighters in their representative government to fight back against it. If it hadn’t been Trump, it would have been someone else. That trajectory has been going on for at least five decades, and those planning the destruction of America through all kinds of influences have not accounted for the real anger of the American people. They assumed that, like a flock of sheep, they would all just go to the slaughterhouse, and that’s clearly not what has been happening. People want to fight against corruption, and denying those types of fighters from being on the political stage was never going to work, just like denying free speech on social media platforms was never going to contain what people actually believed. The belief was that people could be controlled in such a way as people were controlled in China and Europe. But psychologically, those nations accept a level of political suppression that those born within America simply don’t have any expectations of maintaining. People have been patient and hopeful that our government can work if they elect the right people. They have not just gone into passive-aggressive mode as seen in other places around the world without an American Constitution, where corruption is assumed. 

Trump is an expert on branding and marketing, which is why he is the current pick of the people. He understands how they feel, which is why he feels it’s appropriate to push back against abusers of authority. That’s also why he was effective on the world stage. The world’s tyrants assume that their opponents will lie down and let them run all over them. There aren’t supposed to be any men left in the world like Trump, so they aren’t prepared to deal with one when they meet one. American voters get what’s going on in the world, even if it’s just superficially. And that is why Trump does what he does and is the leading candidate once again to be President. To answer Brit Hume’s question about how Trump could expect to win over more people to his side by advocating for violence against George Soros-supported district attorneys who have taken over our legal system and weaponized it, it’s very simple. People want to fight, and they expect their representatives to fight back. Obviously, many people like Brit Hume and the Fox News crowd still don’t understand the anger out there. People aren’t going to be destroyed like processed meat at the slaughterhouse. They will do it themselves if they don’t have fighters in their representative government. And Trump understands that market and offers himself as an alternative to violence. Not as a provocateur. 

Essentially this current government gets one more election before a powder keg is about to explode in America. Voters are willing to let politicians do political things so long as they have a job, bank account, and home. If those things are threatened, and the advocates of destruction show their teeth, then the American people are poised to punch them in the face and worse.   They aren’t going to put up with another rigged election that keeps a foreign asset like Joe Biden in the White House to perpetuate the destruction of our country and threatens those essential needs of Americans. If it is then realized that Americans don’t pick their own representatives in government by the masses, then the separation of belief and facts will spill over into a violent reaction. But it should never be expected that Antifa and leftist thugs helped by a government military are going to go door to door and impose their will on the American people for complete compliance. It didn’t work with mask mandates, and it certainly isn’t going to work on other things. And the political class does not rule over people in America. It represents people. And Trump represents people’s anger toward an out-of-control government. The political class should be grateful for the information. But controlling it, as Brit Hume and the Fox News crowd believes is possible, they are way off. The only satisfactory ending would be a positive outcome from this next election that all sides can believe in. Make sure there are reps available to count the votes and confirm the results, whatever they may be. But if people think they had a rigged election, and they end up with four more years of Joe Biden or some other Deep State asset in the White House, then people are going to be mad, and they’ll want to fight back another way. And that wouldn’t be good. The Deep State is not in charge. People want to rule themselves, and if they don’t have representatives who honor that relationship, then they will turn away from politeness, and things will take a turn away from law and order.  But justice will find another way to manifest in a social context.

It’s All About Anger: The Fed messed up America, and people have a right to feel the way they do

Of course, people have a right to be angry; they have a right to be very angry. As it has turned out, many of the crazy conspiracy theories over the past twenty years have turned out to be true. We have learned through Trump’s presidency because they have come out of their concealment to get rid of him and have abused our laws and political system to such an extent that we know there is a Deep State of global members who function outside of the world’s governments to run a money racket that is very mob like. It’s a criminal enterprise at best and has been working in the background taking advantage of the good nature of people for a long time, and now it’s all exposed. It took layers of peeling back all the trouble to see them, and now that is where the world is, protests in England, Paris, Brazil, Hong Kong, everywhere, people are mad, and populism is gaining steam because the Deep State has been caught doing a lot of bad things. And protecting them has been the Administrative Class, the layers of college-trained managers that have created woke culture performance standards and prevented proper legislation to facilitate a functioning government. If all governments were bad, nothing would work, pushing people to accept poor performance everywhere. It’s not just a problem in the United States; this is a global problem and has at its root cause the open border organizations that have dissipated people all over the globe in an attempt to overthrow national governments and push corporations into accepting extremely liberal approaches to business outlined by the communist aims of Karl Marx. Then at the core of all this trouble has been wealth redistribution, in stealing money from the rich country of America and giving it away to these bandits and thieves, and the mechanism for doing that was the Federal Reserve. The Fed was always something Americans should have been suspicious of, and now the truth of the matter has been revealed. Quantitative easing has destroyed the American economy, and the value that was once there has been feeding the power of the Deep State all along. 

When Trump said during a March 25th rally in Waco, Texas, that the Deep State was going to destroy America, or America was going to destroy the Deep State, he was putting his finger on the larger problem of this particular 2024 election. I’ve been talking about it for a while, but now we know we never had control of our government, not for several decades, and the Federal Reserve has been purposely wrecking the fiscal policy of America and distributing that value like mobsters to hostile global powers. And they have been using our own intelligence agencies to do so. Control the money; you can control most people in the world. That has always been the danger of an idea for the Federal Reserve. Once foreign interests were able to control those independent banks that make up the Fed, it was over for a rational outcome to be considered. I would watch the Federal Reserve meetings at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, every year, and the writing was on the wall. Most of the bank reps were well-intentioned, but it was all over once woke rules were poured into their minds, and group consensus drove their independent logic. This was the topic of a very good book called The Lords of Easy Money that came out a while ago and told this story of the broken Federal Reserve well, in ways that normal people can understand. If you have listened to the crazy liberal lunatic Janet Yellen over the last several weeks, the problem becomes obvious. 

Janet Yellen is the current Secretary of the Treasury for the inserted President Biden. She has served as the Chair of the Federal Reserve, just as Jerome Powell does now. Going back to what many considered the good days, those of Alen Greenspan, politics has been the overriding quality of the Fed Chairs. Even with all the efforts toward big things at the annual Jackson Hole meetings, they are just people easily influenced by global politics. In the case of the American Fed, the mob of the Deep State has most controlled their decision-making process. Greenspan was an Ayn Rand fan of the classic Atlas Shrugged, but he found it challenging to part government and business partnerships that were so embedded in politics, so he essentially started the process of quantitative easing to assist investment and pump up the economy during the Reagan years. That was certainly the problem with Ben Bernanke when he attempted to stop the bleeding of the collapsed housing market in 2008 with a policy of endless quantitative easing and to give that money directly to Wall Street; specifically, Larry Fink of BlackRock, who then applied his membership to the World Economic Forum to buy up the world’s boards of directors with fake government printed money to impose on them social governance, which is how we have ended up with all these woke policies we are seeing today. And the Deep State mob is going all in on the ridiculousness now because they know that people know. Their efforts are no longer shielded by the white wine and cheese Republicans who think the Fed chair people are brilliant economists. The beer-drinking chicken-winged public now wants to know why their dollar has lost much of its value. A beer that used to cost one dollar now costs three, and now they are being told that they’ll have to give up their pickup trucks in place of some fancy golf cart so that some polar bear can sleep on a block of ice somewhere. Who made those decisions for them? Our government, the Fed, and their radical liberal views are the essence of Janet Yellen. Larry Fink, the guy who controls over 10 trillion in asset management with BlackRock, when he would have instead have been a political activist coming out of college? They all got caught thinking people were too stupid to see what they were doing, and now their bad policies have robbed people of their wealth and very lives, and people are pretty well upset about it. 

They were smoking crack to all the political analysts out there who thought that Ron DeSantis would be an offering to MAGA so that the Deep State could continue to rule from the shadows. They obviously do not have a hold on reality. This upcoming election is not about policy, whether or not women have voting rights, or which side in the Civil War politicians took regarding racism. Racism has been a weapon of the Deep State to distract the public from the money they were stealing from America to fund countless wars, destroy borders of nations, and implement a communist philosophy in every corporation that sells stock in a public forum. And the ruse continued until President Trump revealed the depth of the Deep State during his presidency. And since then, in attempting to use every tool of corruption at their disposal to keep him from running again.  Ron DeSantis never had a chance.  The Deep State encouraged him to run so that they could get control of the MAGA movement, thinking that people would be attracted to a Donald Trump-lite offering. But this election is about more than that; it’s about destroying our entire civilization, starting with our monetary policy. And now that we all know what has happened and are discovering more bad stuff day by day, people are getting very angry. And that anger is poised to go out and vote for Donald Trump. And this time, the Deep State won’t be able to hide behind a manufactured virus unleashed on the world to manipulate our elections. Now the wrath of the world is headed for the places where the Deep State hides, such as behind the Fed. And there isn’t anything anybody can do to stop that anger from spewing because the bad guys have been caught.

What Happened to Bill Mitchell: Ron DeSantis is the pick of the Deep State

Bill Mitchell is a pretty good political commentator and election statistician who had a large platform on Twitter and was very pro-MAGA before the purge in 2020. Over the years, I have found him to be pretty good at identifying election trends, especially on game day during actual elections. He struggled to find his footing in the years after the Twitter purge on both Gettr and Truth Social, but it was never the same. Yet after Elon Musk purchased Twitter and turned pro-free speech for his own needs, Bill has restored his account and has returned to Twitter much as he did before. Only this time, he is mysteriously anti-Trump, much like Drudge did during the last election. It’s bizarre to watch from these guys; they were for all things Trump, then suddenly they switch to an anti-Trump position. The first conclusion is that they had someone get to them. But I don’t think that goes far enough. It’s like many of the Never Trumpers that are out there; it comes down to what they believe politics to be and that Trump violates that unwritten rule, and once they conclude that in their minds, they switch sentiments. Whatever it is, Bill Mitchell has gone entirely over to Ron DeSantis for all kinds of reasons, none of them good, and has been pouring it on heavily against Trump as if he thinks he is going to move the MAGA needle, which brings up a very interesting consideration. I would consider Bill Mitchell to be one of the best political strategists out there, much better than Karl Rove and even Newt Gingrich. So why, if that is so, then how could he suddenly be so wrong about Trump? Trump hasn’t changed, Bill Mitchell, Mr. MAGA himself, did. So why, and is he right? 

The RINO position for Ron DeSantis is that he’s Trump-lite. You can have the taste of the beer without all the calories. And Bill has suddenly been preaching the RINO mantra that Ron DeSantis is everything that Trump is; he even legislates to the right of Trump on most things. And I think that’s true. I think Ron DeSantis is more of a conservative than President Trump. And yes, Trump got suckered with Covid and Dr. Fauci. At some point, he will have to explain all that away and stop talking about Operation Warp Speed because everything related to Covid was a mistake. But Ron DeSantis was just as suckered. Everyone was suckered (except for me) regarding Covid. I’ve said it many times, if I had been advising Trump then, I would have told him to throw Dr. Fauci and Bill Gates out of his office. But at that time, I was the only one saying such things. It was an election year, and the media was all over the story. And Dr. Fauci was the most famous person in America during the summer of 2020. If Trump had fired him, that would have killed his election chances at that time. Knowing what we do now, I was right, the rest of the world was wrong, and Trump got caught in the crossfire. My view of it was that Trump had managed the country very well until Covid. Covid was a bioweapon meant to steal an election and destroy the American economy that was threatening the world’s Liberal World Order. So the bad guys pulled the grenade, dropped it into the punch bowl, and blew up everyone hoping to create a Great Reset for the World Economic Forum, which had long been planned for. Trump is the best option to returning to our pre-Covid America, and better. With the right Federal Reserve Chairman, more than 4% GDP growth is still possible, so that is the battle plan for 2024. 

But we have in the way a Deep State that thinks it runs the world and that our constitution is useless to their sentiments. They have no reverence for it and intend to destroy America and enslave all of us into a debt-driven world where a few from Davos literally control the world with a collapse of the dollar and a transfer of the power alliance to China, so they can literally rule the planet as a propped up communist power of the Desecrators of Davos. And these guys aren’t playing patty cake. They are playing to kill literally, and they have been showing that power with their control of America’s legal system and the control of politicians who have taken money from them, like Mitch McConnell and Joe Biden. In that world, Ron DeSantis has no chance. Without a Trump around to draw cover fire, there would be no Ron DeSantis. And there is only Rino support for DeSantis now because the Deep State thinks it can do better in controlling him than it could ever hope in controlling Trump. But it’s the control of our elected representatives that they are after. They aren’t looking for a “democracy.” They are after collapsed economies, world domination, and enslavement through their Great Reset. Their support of DeSantis is to give the public all the talk of MAGA without the policy of the movement, to appease the public enough to prevent any real reform from wrecking their plans. Trump is a wrecking ball to all that, so we are voting for him and continuing to support him. We aren’t looking for someone who “gets along” with the Deep State.

If you read his comments on the matter, Bill Mitchell essentially indicates that he is tired of all the drama with Trump and that DeSantis can do the same thing without all the drama. And my position is that, no, he can’t. The drama comes from those who stand in the way of American sovereignty and our Constitutional rights, and they want Trump, MAGA, and everything about populism destroyed viciously. These are essentially communists who intend the China model for America, and without Trump around, Ron DeSantis won’t exist, nor would any other MAGA representative in Congress or the Senate. I would expect Bill Mitchell to know all that, but he’s had some health problems, and maybe it rattled him, and he’s gone soft. But whatever it is, DeSantis doesn’t have a chance. He has destroyed his good brand. He should have aligned with Trump, not worked against him, and now that he has spoken out against Trump in the way he has, he has ruined his ability to win an election where MAGA will determine the outcome. Trump is the only politician in the modern world who could hope to get voter engagement with over 70 million voters. Ron DeSantis won’t get that, which, indeed, the Never-Trumpers understand. But they can’t get out of their own way as the controlled opposition. The only way Democrats hold power is if the Never Trumpers keep Trump from running. And Bill Mitchell and others are smart enough to see that. The question is, are they strong enough to follow through? In the case of Bill Mitchell, maybe he’s just been beaten up enough to say uncle and to look toward DeSantis with all the promises of the Never Trump RINOs of conservative legislation without the drama. But that’s not the fight. We are fighting for the very foundation of our country, the Deep State attack on our very lives. And when that is understood, Trump might not be vicious enough, as we saw with Covid. But if not him, then who? We know he did well before, and he’s out for revenge because of what they have done to him, which is what most of us feel as well, Republicans and Democrats. And that is what the 2024 election really comes down to, revenge and rebuilding. Not another RINO-controlled asset that helps the Deep State, which is all Ron DeSantis would be to the election process.

The Indictment of President Trump: A gift that will change the world–they don’t have the guts!

Actually, the original influence for the religious symbol of the “cross” was in reference to when the planet Marduk collided with the planet Tiamat between Mars and Jupiter, destroying it completely, leaving behind the asteroid belt we see today, and seeding life on Earth in a modern context, within 400,000 years. But most contemporarily, the cross symbolizes the crucifixion of Christ as the classic struggle between institutionalized religion controlled by the state, and the kind of independence that Jesus Christ was teaching, and the punishment for it. The symbol of crucifixion became a whole new religion that changed life on Earth forever, and the death of Christ gave life to a new way of thinking, which would eventually become the country of America, by the evolution of the story of the Bible which ultimately inspired the creation of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. The cross utilization was a reverence that the Romans had in their mass killings as a sacrifice to some of that ancient history mentioned, but the reality became something far from the original intention. If suppression of Christ’s teachings was the goal, then the reality was greatly disappointing to the established order; they started a whole new religion that would permeate most of the world and cause them to lose control entirely of their empire. And in many ways, the mug shot of President Trump will have the same effect. The intentions of corrupt powers often don’t learn from history, and that is essentially what Democrats have done to themselves with the indictment of President Trump and the publication of his mugshot, which was always their intention from the beginning, to show the world that they are in charge and that the world must bend the knee to their government of communism, socialism and tyranny as a global menace. 

It’s not an accident that two of the world’s greatest works of literature, the Bible and Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged, both feature their main characters being crucified at the end by ominous tyrannies represented by out-of-control governments. In Atlas Shrugged, it was John Galt who was tortured at the end and made an example of to serve the state and to show power over all of mankind’s hopes that fantasies of individual Government would be possible. It was, after all, in our own Declaration of Independence written on July 4th, 1776, that we said as newly created Americans, “that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundations on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” It goes on to say explicitly “that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government and provide new Guards for their future security.” And that is what is happening now; our government has grown out of control; it is evil, and to hold power, they are abusing that power, most notably with the indictment of a former and future president. The abuse is widespread; the J6 prisoners had every right to get control of a government they could see was not reporting to them, which caused the government to dig deeper into its own evils, culminating in the violation of many constitutional concepts to preserve an insurgent global force that seeks the destruction of us all. 

My wife actually said it all perfectly what the prosecution by the radicals of New York means regarding Trump; she stated to me simply that we are dealing with two ideologies that just can’t live on planet earth together. Our side, “conservatives,” have more of a live-and-let-live attitude and have accommodated other points of view. But the other side wants our complete destruction, and those ideas are not merged. They simply cannot live together. And she’s right. We’ve been turning the other cheek for too long, trying to make it work. But it’s just not possible. And that last desperation from them, “the globalists” who run our government presently are abusing their power everywhere, hoping to destroy all of us before we figure out what they are trying to do to us, which is destroy all opposition and enslave the rest who bend the knee to them out of self-preservation. There isn’t any middle ground with them; it’s complete destruction of the American concept or nothing else. And when we see such a government at work, as stated in our founding documents, we have every right to throw off that tyrannical Government and to start over. And based on the actions of the government swamp toward a freely elected President in Trump, there is no redeeming value in them to preserve. We are at that point now where we must start over our government for the management of our sovereign country away from the globalism that has been imposed on us with a kind of military force conducted through the destruction of our financial system.

I think it’s great that all this has happened to Trump because of what history tells us it means. The Trump “mug shot” will become a new kind of cross, and all Americans will view it as a sacrifice, which is precisely what it has been. I personally don’t think the government has the guts to go through it, but I’m hoping so. We are lucky Trump has been willing to go through all this, even if he doesn’t like it. The flimsy laws that these prosecutors of Trump are just as ridiculous as those leveled at Jesus Christ, for which he was killed for, and the fictional character of John Galt from Atlas Shrugged, where the ultimate sacrifice for the demand of public consumption was pressed upon him to break him and force all of civilization to follow. We are dealing with that here, and the results are known. Trump’s campaign for 2024 will be elevated to Biblical levels. People needed to see just how corrupt our modern Government is and be reminded that they actually had control all along. And it is in our time that we are called to act on their tyrannies, as our own founding documents demand of us. And like the cross became a symbol of something new, the Trump Mug Shot will become just as powerful, if not more so. Populism worldwide is waiting for a trigger effect, and the actions of this mug shot by the corrupt DA of New York will put it in perspective for people. Which I think is the greatest gift in politics, something I have been hoping for my entire adult life. This government overreach by these desperate Democrats with roots in global commerce has nothing else but fear and intimidation to work with, and it has forced them to make this dreadful error. Much as the Romans did when they killed Jesus Christ. It was Christianity that would eventually destroy their empire under Constantine. And through this crucifixion of President Trump, the Democrats will destroy themselves along with their globalist alliances. But what’s different with Trump is that we have a whole Bill of Rights that will prevent the actual death, and the resurrection of his presidency is contained within our founding documents. We don’t have to put up with tyranny, which this Government clearly intends. We have a right to end that Government, and now they have given us every reason in the world to do so without any second guessing.
