Genocide

Here are two examples from the 20th century of how governments have demonized part of their populations to turn ordinary people into heartless uncaring tools of murder. We see this type of demonization from true hate groups, terrorist, and members of the ruling elite around the world. In the US today anyone who does not support the left is called "far-right", MAGAtes, etc.

In the 1930 the National Socialist Party of Germany (NAZI) began a campaign to unite the people of Germany in an effort to use unite the nation under the the banner of Nazi rule and the will of Adolph Hitler. Today referred to as the Holocaust.

"One of history’s darkest chapters, the Holocaust was the systematic killing of six million Jewish men, women, and children and millions of others by Nazi Germany and its collaborators during World War II (1939–45). Slavs, Roma, gay people, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and others also were singled out for obliteration, but the Nazis’ various policies for exterminating the Jews were the most deliberate and calculated." https://www.britannica.com/topic/The-Holocaust-Facts-and-Figures

In 100 days from April to July 1994 there was a planned campaign of mass murder in the country of Rwanda.

"The genocide was conceived by extremist elements of Rwanda’s majority Hutu population who planned to kill the minority Tutsi population and anyone who opposed those genocidal intentions. It is estimated that some 200,000 Hutu, spurred on by propaganda from various media outlets, participated in the genocide. More than 800,000 civilians—primarily Tutsi, but also moderate Hutu—were killed during the campaign." https://www.britannica.com/event/Rwanda-genocide-of-1994

 We are constantly told that the greatest danger to the nation is "straight white men" and "extreme MAGA" Republicans or maggots. Much in the same manner as the NAZIs defined their chosen internal enemies as rats, lice, cockroaches, foxes, vultures and other vermin the one of the chosen slur in Maggots. Throughout history this has been a tactic to divide groups of people to be conquered. "Anyone who opposes this division is call divisive, or Fascist, or NAZIs.

Once you convince a segment of people that the chosen segment of the population is not human or evil it is easier to exterminate those people and create a true totalitarian state.

With the murder/assassination of Charlie Kirk, the full extent of the brainwashing of a large segment of the US population has been exposed to the general population. When you have such a massive celebration of the death of a fellow citizen, it shows that these people no longer believe that those who disagree with them are human and do not deserve to live in "their world". This is what causes genocides. It give normal people the rational to commit mass murder.

This is the "virus" that has now been identified in our universities and political parties. It must end now. I beg all rational liberty loving Americans to join together to fight this malignant cancer that is eating away at our civility and civilization. The world once again faces a group that seems to be preparing their foot solders for a genocide. We must unite or be subjugated to a people who have no respect for human life and the ideas that founded the US.

The Ultimate Betrayal

It is an key event in American History, told many times, and needs repeating. On September 11, 2001, the United States of America suffered an attack that changed the nation. Accusations began to fly at the government of being incompetent and not connecting the dots that could have stopped the attacks. The Congress pushed through the Patriot Act. However, one entity created well before this law was The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978. This created the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. The government gave itself power through these two laws to gather information it deemed necessary to protect the nation from future foreign attacks.

The original purpose, of course, was to monitor foreign nationals and corporations that might engage in illegal activities. Nevertheless, modifications made after the 9/11 attacks the system opened the system to charges of domestic spying. In addition, it opened the door for even greater abuse in these secret courts.

Tweet

Fear of the possible abuse of this powerful court were not widely known or understood. However, people aware of them feared that overreach and abuse would tempt people to use this added power against those who they disagreed. It seems obvious to many that those fears were well founded. People who understand the possibility for abuse knew that anytime someone in power with little or no concern for individual rights would gladly turn this secret court into a weapon.

This is the type of abuse demonstrated within the Obama Administration in a vain attempt by the IRS to silence the Tea Party movement. Starting in 2008, the Obama Administration showed, beyond denial, that it was willing to use the executive branch as a weapon. This administration viewed the Bill of Rights as too limiting and Obama actually called it a list of negative right, which did not say what the government had to do. This twisting of The Constitution showed a total disrespect for the true owners of the country, the citizens. This was a total betrayal of his oath of office.

Since 2016, the Democrat Party put the nation through three years of attacks against a President in what many are calling a silent coup attempt. This started on the day of his election. Starting with the previous administration, it is accused and there is public evidence that government agencies worked against his election attempt and interfered with his Constitutional mandated authority once he entered office. Once the Democrats took control of the House of Representatives, they immediately began both overt and covert impeachment inquiries. They also rushed article to the Senate that contained no crimes as defined by The Constitution and as is well known The Senate then acquitted.

This impeachment was like no other. The last one was the Nixon impeachment, which had a non-patrician consensus of the House and Senate. The underlying crime was that some campaign worker gained entry into a DNC office to plant listening devices and the cover up that followed. Whereas the Democrats grasped at straws to try to find anything that would/could be considered a crime to hang on President Trump. One thing that I am sure that they were hoping for was a cover up charge similar to those used in the Nixon Impeachment. However, they were outmaneuvered. Even though they were able to gather information well beyond what the House was able to obtain during the Nixon investigation. Information on the Trump Administration accessed through illegally obtained FISA surveillance warrants provided no usable evidence.

Of course, their first attempt to impeach, fueled by the Russian collation acquisitions failed. Unverified acquisitions financed by the Clinton Campaign showed the weakness in this system. Exposing and endangers the nation, by painting every agent and agency as dishonest. This episode opened a major breach in the trust that is required for the courts and law enforcement agencies to protect and defend the nation. By lying to the courts and obtaining warrants to spy on the Trump campaign using faked documents they have brought into question the existence of the FISA court, and in some cases the intelligence community, as a whole.

Surveillance warrants to spy on Carter Page violate everything Americans expect from those in power. To head of future abuses and stop violations of the basic trust, valid questions require answers. In addition, safety guards and fixes put into place to head off possible future abuses. Nevertheless, people run these courts and people are not perfect, which could necessitate elimination of a system designed to protect us from foreign spying.

In the ultimate betrayal of the American people, those in government have put the nation at risk of attack in a desperate attempt to hold their failing grasp of power. Their selfish desire to defeat a President lawfully elected they are willing to damage the nation beyond repair. To regain any semblance of justice those involved should not walk away unpunished. Examples of what happens when you put personal power ahead of the life and liberty of our nation are not subject to reward.

Raucus Caucus Faucus

Could any political party have a more desperately disaster of a week? In a blog post from July of 2018, “The Straw That Broke The Donkey’s Back,” I wondered about the lack of leadership of the Democrat Party. In that case it was the outlawing of straws that seemed to be not well thought out. It appears that they are no long playing the long game.

Tweet

The current leadership has shown none of the of gamesmanship of the former Democrat Party Leaders. Today the current leaders appear to be so closely tied into what the appearance of political corruption that they are running scare. To be fair the leadership has never faced the one of a kind President Donald J. Trump. I respected Ronald Reagan. However I feel he was too trusting of his political opposition. He expected them to follow through on their commitments. But anyone who lived through those year know that they did not honor their word. From their constant attacks upon him and such betrayals as the 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act after which the Congress failed to fund enforcement of the border control provisions.

Nevertheless, George H. W. Bush, in an effort to be “liked”, undid most of the tax and spending reforms championed by his predicator. Which made him a one term president. That has been the problem with the GOP presidents with their relations with the media and the Democrat Party. The Democrats can say whatever they wish, no matter how inflammatory about any Republican, and the Maxis Media (MXM) reinforces the narrative. However, whenever a Republican defends themselves the MXM dutifully attacks them as if they have no right to self-defense. That has changed and the many on the media and the Progressives are lost on how to take back the narrative.

With the change in the political climate the Progressives have opened themselves up to the radical Socialist and Communist. People like AOC are power hungry and don’t seem to care how they obtain it. Even the longtime fan of Communism and Independent, Bernie Sanders has gained a strong foothold amongst their ranks.

I have no doubt that the Democrats will do everything that they can to keep a person who refuses to join the party to run under their banner. However they were shamed into modifying their (very un-democratic) super delegate process after the 2016 nomination fiasco. Contrary to what they claim the actual process puts control of the nomination into the hands of a group of party leaders that can by fiat select the party’s candidate. This is how they excluded the non-party member from running as a Democrat in 2016.

This is where I think things get interesting. A party that claims to hate the Electoral College uses a process that, to some extent, resembles it. By not making the process directly tied to the popular vote they betray the basic rules of democracy. In this case, it is more about control by a select group as compared to allowing more equity based upon the will of the states as a whole. They like the control that the super delegate process because it gives the leaders of the party a veto. I am very sure that they would love the Electoral College if they could control it. This is the very definition of tyrannical rule. Rule by the few over the will of the governed.

Well this week the Democrats had their first caucus of the 2020 Presidential Election Year and there are a lot of question about why it is taking so long to determine the results. There is a lot of speculation that the results have been held up due to Mr. Sanders was winning. That is almost certainly true due to some interesting results that were release, which showed Mayor Pete winning the most delegates, while Sanders received the most votes. As I write this writing, the head of the party is calling for an immediate “recanvass” of the botched Iowa caucus. To me this raises the specter of more funny business. Even the MXM cannot fully cover up this disaster.

One of my best guesses, and there is other speculating on this, is that the Democrats want to abandon Iowa and most of the rest of the nation in the heartland of the country, that they are unable to control. The leaders of the party seem to be more in favor of letting New York, Illinois, California, and the large Metropolitan areas select their candidate and the winner of the election. They are working hard to do anything to enforce their rule upon the nation and defy the will of the people across the nation. I would also speculate that the totalitarian Communists and Socialist in the party that are pushing this so that they can obtain that power they crave.

Therefore, after this week, the GOP is in a very strong position. The Impeachment fiasco and the implosion of the Democrat’s Caucus in Iowa left the Progressives wounded. However, this is not the time to drop our guard. The Democrats have shown me that they are the sworn enemies of our freedoms and the Constitution as a whole. As they continue to embrace totalitarian Communism I will continue to dedicate myself to defeating them. Until a party emerges that will work to protect our freedoms and the health of the nation as a whole I will do what I can to defeat them. The Democrats are selling snake oil and only helping those who help them.

Today is the day for all freedom loving Americans to fight against those who will overthrow our government and hand our lives to the Globalist who dream of a perfect world. There idea of a perfect world is them in complete control. They claimed that they were protecting the Constitution while ripping it up even more than what the Speaker of the House did to the State of the Union speech.

Checkout Breakdown

This week in a blatant display of racism, a state representative reported being accosted by an obvious right-winger. The evil white man attacked her and demanded that; “she should go back to where she came from.” This brave woman instantly went to Facebook to tell the world of this travesty, which sparked an outrage. The poor woman, who said she was 9 months pregnant, took the express lane in the local grocery store, although she was over the posted limit. Her delicate condition did not keep her from holding an impromptu press conference later in the day. You know politics… uh looking out for the public good.

Tweet

During her time in the limelight, the person that confronted her crashed the party and for some reason felt that he needed to tell his side of the story. It seems that he is a self-appointed Express Lane Enforcement Officer. He said that she was in violation of the Progressive Criminal Code (PCC) 479.23.79.1. This requires anyone who exceeds the suggested number of items when using the Express Lane Checkout to be harassed. (This is the similar to the portion of the PCC requiring the harassment of smokers in parks, in their home, or on public sidewalks.) Even though he reported that there were at least 2 other registers with no one in line, use of the Express Lane is only for those deemed worth. After all “rules are rules”.

He seemed to let her off with only a warning. However since she was also a Progressive and her status as a State Representative means that she is better than “normal plebes”. Her status allows her to blow a simple confrontation into a racist incident. This was supposed to be her proof of how evil Trump supporter were running around and attacking poor women of color for no reason. The major problem with her impromptu plan was that her “attacker” was a lifelong “Blue Dog Progressive Democrat”. He is also of Cuban decent.

Two Progressives caused this whole comedy of errors; one looking for a victim to use as a vehicle to attack President Trump supports if not the President himself. The other person was a busy body who decided to impose his self-important opinion into a situation in which he had no reason to intercede. Both were wrong, however only one of them was able to garner a response from the press. This story goes further and I will not repeat them here. It is just funny to watch the Progressives eat one another.
The moral of this story is live and let live.

The Straw That Broke The Donkey’s Back

Today’s Democrat Party has abandoned the playbook of the party that most Americans learned  and understood for years. I just don’t understand how they could have thrown out tried and tested strategic planning schema and replaced it with shortsighted solutions. The Democrat party of the past would have played it up with as much fanfare as possible. They would have never just banned plastic straws. They would have come up with a much more involved plan to steer people into what helped the party the most.

Tweet

The party of the past would have either suggested putting a $1 for tax or deposit on each straw. The tax would be the best solution for the party. They could sell it as a way to implement a straw recycling program. This tax would raise the price of a case of 5000 from about $80 to at least $5080. The Democrats would just consider that the higher cost is just a part of doing business and not something that could affect profits, since profits are evil.

Since straws will require special handling that would require a San Francisco Department of Straw Recycling or SFDOSR, which would require its own bureaucracy. Of course, this would require special routes with custom truck to handle the collected straws for recycling. In addition, unionized workers, with guaranteed permanent employment, would have to collect the straws and additional personnel to run the specially constructed recycling plant built by unionized construction companies. Most of these workers will then be permanent Democrat voters.

Just like with the cigarette tax the higher cost of the straws will force restaurants to quit using straws. The lack of tax income will then cause a crisis for the recycling program, which will require an increase in other taxes, or the more creative solution already built into the plan.

At this point, the tourist bureau and local restaurant association would be demanding relief. The final solution would be to cut the tax by 75% with a mandate that all businesses must provide a straw to all customers with a $.35 deposit and mandatory recycling program. This would have left the workers mostly idle and well paid. While funneling millions of dollars into the coffers of the local elected officials and the Democrat Party. A win-win for the party.

After all the back and forth the average person will have forgotten why the tax was implemented and most of the straws targeted for recycling will be put in the land fill or dumped 200 miles off shore.

Now that is a long-term Democrat Party plan that I recognize.

Ink by the Barrel

A famous quote credited to both Mark Twain and publicist William I. Greener, Jr. is often repeated to silence people who are attacked by the press: ‘Never argue with a man who buys ink by the barrel’. For years, this has been the basic means of the press steamrolling over anyone who opposed their agenda. This ability was somewhat contained when the press was decentralized nature of ownership. This allowed for a more balanced delivery of the news.

Tweet

Over the years, the delivery of the news has changed and the newspaper industry went through a consolidation of ownership as radio and television news took its toll on readership. Then with the growth of the Internet put pressure on both. However, even before the Internet, pressure from 24-hour cable news channels changed the dynamics of reporting news and greater competition to be first to the air. In addition, the major networks started the consolidation of their news into the entertainment divisions. This made them more profit conscious with less concern about integrity of the content as long as they produced viewers for it. Closely following this change in attitude concerning content was even more consolidation of ownership into fewer hands.

With the advent of the Internet and most of the major news providers still unable to find ways to make a profit from this technology, has weakened much of the old guard in the news business. This has emboldened more people to challenge this, once considered, invulnerable powerhouse news organizations. Do not get me wrong. The major broadcast news organizations still have many views. However, their numbers come from the older generations, which is not a growing market. So this does not bode well for their future.

This week’s announcement oflayoffs at The New York Daily News only highlights the dire straits in which the print media finds itself. No longer does the old guard possess the power it once wielded with reckless abandonment. The once mighty daily newspapers that now look more like information pamphlets and are a pale shadow of themselves.

From this weakness and lack of integrity emerged Donald Trump. He has shown that the press no longer has those once feared barrels of ink. Polls show that over the years, trust in the media continues to fall among the American people. This is even highlighted more from the constant attacks coming from a news media that seems much more aligned with the government bureaucracies than the health and stability of the United States as a whole.

For far too long, many politicians who opposed the media's agenda, feared the press and their long arms. They feared that if they did not accept whatever the media said and did, that they face exclusion from the conversation or attacked to the point of destruction. Daily the president face these tactics. However, he has turned the tables constantly. He fearlessly not only fights back against their attacks, he turns the tables by excluding them and withholds their access to information by using Twitter to bypass their ability to control the narrative.

He has demonstrated that he is a master of media and a genius at communicating with his supporters and the American people. Now starved from direct access, the once proud masters of information delivery find themselves shrinking from the lack of the valuable info that feeds their Progressive machines. His overt media coup has help to expand the new American Political Information Age. This has tamped down the gradual century old Progressive/Socialist march to overturn much of the Constitution and the freedoms enjoyed by Americans. He has been so successful that the Democrat Socialist has had to unmask themselves in an attempt to rally their forces, as the media is no longer dependable to control the narrative.

Roseanne Roseanne Roseanne

With all the reports of ABC and the rush to cancel the new Roseanne Show, I have to say that I believe that in the end this will be good for Trump supporters and America as a whole. Now before you hit the back button or close the tab let me explain. I believe, that like many actors, she is a self-promoting, self-serving, actor. She only cares about what whatever she believes will keep her in the spotlight. I fear that she, and her show, would have been only a fair weather friend.

Tweet

To begin with, I must be honest and say that I never watched the Roseanne Show. I refuse to watch ABC, NBC or CBS network television. It is just has a lot to do with the political slant of their so-called news programs and how it creeps into of their programming. However, beyond that I can say that I never watched her show in its last iteration. The broadcast occurred after I began to look for other entertainment options. Therefore, I am not a critic of her acting or of the content of these productions.

I can only base my comments on what I have read or what others have said about its contents. I am not interested in her earliest show. I did find it very interesting that so many people became so enamored with the Roseanne Show when it returned. I just find the contents of her new show to be quite interesting.

Looking at the actual character of the lead actor who is the namesake of the program, my interest was piqued further. It should goes without saying that Roseanne Barr has always been a controversial person. She started her career as a stand-up comedian, billing herself as a domestic goddess. This persona brought her media attention, late night show airtime, and then her first prime time show. Her folksy comedy hit a nerve with many Americans and feed her popularity.

Roseanne is a wild card. Some of her past publicity stunts has been hard for me to explain, other than they were just that: publicity stunts. Her “2012 Presidential run” with Cindy Sheehan may have been just a way to sell a movie idea. However it the stance she pushed were socialist solutions. Her beliefs would seem to be far from the policies implemented so far by the Trump Administration.

Although her character declares her support for President Trump from the beginning of the reboot of her show, the writers for the show are liberals. My belief is that the end game could have been to use any reason to turn the narrative to the negative. I truly don’t believe that the people working on her show would have not tried to use her popularity to undercut the president. The progressives are pulling out all stops to turn back the hands of time and restore the damage done by Obama. It seems thou that Roseanne herself may have killed this plan by accident. Her tweet that caused the firestorm may have been her attempt to convince more of the show fans that she was on their side and it backfired. But the Progressive movement has been shattered so badly that they are feeding on each other. President Trump has outsmarted them at almost every turn.

This episode is not over. I just hope that if I am correct in my hypothesis, that it is just another sign that we are closer to draining the Washington swamp to the point where it can never regain this type of power again.

Thoughts from Thursday 01/26/17

With less than a week in the record books for the new President of the United States in the record books it might be a good time for me to jump back into politics. Since the election, the major population centers of the nation have gone completely loopy. The Progressive Socialist could smell victory. With the passing of the 100 year goal of transferring control of the medical industry into government control it was just a matter of time that they could take total control of the US population. Their control of all the major “news” outlets has been such a huge benefit that how could they lose? So what else for them to do but march, loot, riot, cry, and demand an end to the US electoral system as we know it, of course.

Million Whiner’s March

I was about to name this segment “Whine Lady Whine” however I really didn’t see many “ladies” at the Million Women’s March. Nevertheless, listening to some of the spoiled brat participates; it only demonstrated that they have not lost their ability to whine over not getting what they wanted. From the demonstrations, it appears to me that most of these women have some major daddy issues. Apparently their fathers gave them everything that they wanted and they expect the “big daddy” in Washington to do the same. Of course, what they want to for Hillary Clinton appointed president. Never mind the law or the Constitution.

Tweet

You still have to admit that many of these poor deluded people really think that they were within the creation of paradise on Earth. You know, just like the Socialist paradise in Cuba or Venezuela. After all President Obama, the news media, and Hollywood have been telling us that we should be aspiring to be more like these nations in the future. Forgetting the fact that such demonstration are forbidden in by dictatorial governments across the world. They think that the freedoms guaranteed by the US Constitution are universal.

Oh let us not forget about the featured speakers paraded before the nation. While Michael Moore, Madonna and Ashley Judd hate filled speeches garnered much of the attention, some of the other speakers need more attention. As reported by allenwest.com, the pro-Sharia law activist Linda Sarsour and Donna Hylton involvement raises some serious question about the true goals of the march. Beyond the fact that a major sponsor was Planned Parenthood and their pro-abortion agenda, the mixed message of equal rights just seems disingenuous. What about the rights of the unborn girls, considered an inconvenience or just a choice to be disposed of like so much garbage.

The inclusion of the felon, Donna Hylton should be so much more than troubling to most Americans. However, someone within the group who organized this event has displayed their willingness to support a person who kidnapped, torched, and killed a gay man. These are the people who continually call anyone that oppose their agenda as homophobic, racist, and haters. So the Million Women’s march was nothing more than a day long of rude, crude, and angry women giving the nation a demonstration of how much they hate anyone that disagrees with their desires.

Draining the Swamp

Well it looks as if we now have an administration that is willing to eliminate government waste and bloat. Considering how Washington has become more and more isolated from the reality of the nation governed. It is good to see that it may finally be what many in the Tea Party were demanding since 2008. That finally there may not only be an actual desire, to not only rein in the growth of the Federal Government but to shrink its size. However, we must continue to push for a balanced budget amendment and a plan to pay off the soaring $20 trillion debt. There are those who say that the debt isn’t a problem or that it can never be paid off. Nevertheless, we never know until we try. The policy makers in the past have been wrong too many times and proven to be untrustworthy. It is time for new ideas from outside the government who has repeatedly ignored its Constitutional bounds.

The Media is Dead, Long Live the Media

It is said that in the days of old when a king passed away the people would say; The king is dead! Long live the king! It was a sign of respect for the old king and a way to pledge support for the new king. Since kings are determined by their linage the new king is based upon their right to inherit the kingdom. So that only due to their birthright they were destined to rule. The USA fought a war of revolution to free the nation of such notions. But over time this type of linage thinking has persisted as a matter of course. That is clearly seen in the way that the Left Stream Media seems to see that their organizations have a inherited right to rule through their control of the information presented to the nation. They see themselves as the king makers and destroyers.

The growth of new media has weakened the hold of the media's dominance the news cycle. During the conversion to the 24 news cycle the media has overplayed their hand. Thus shaking the public confidence. Then the emergence of the Internet presented new narratives which they once again overreacted which has further eroded away the trust that gave them so much power in the past. Without the trust of the nation those talking head are just that, talking heads. Very little power but some entertainment value.

After the defeat of the Clintons in November, it is clear that the Left Stream Media wounding is serious. They have been publicly shamed and humiliated. CNN has been a fake news network since almost their creation. It is good to see that not only has new media been proven to have more power than ever expected, it has given us a new channel to bypass the filter put in place by those who have controlled the public discourse for far too long. The so-called news media thinks that they have unlimited power. It is time to end the deceit and deception spread by a government created entertainment monopoly. The protections of free speech in the First Amendment of the Constitution are now perverted into a total control the narrative by a very few members of the Democrat Party. It is clear looking at those who provide the network news are controlled by people only interested in their own power.

Even though there are new means of spreading information, there are those who wish to destroy those means. Much of the fake news put out has come from sources are from agent provocateurs to sow distrust. The news media and the political parties see the threatened of losing their ability to control the narrative. If they are unable to manipulate the message, the people win more freedom. It is easier to control people’s thoughts and actions if they are uninformed, divided, and/or scared. The government-controlled media has had that power for too long. To see our freedoms return we must be able to maintain our ability to communicate without Progressive government or media interference and control. Although the old media is not truly dead it would appear that it is on life support, So I have to say;  Long live the new media!

A New Day in America

Beyond all else, I woke up in an America where a major part of our First Amendment right to free speech has been restored. Today, as proven by the demonstration in Washington on Saturday, Americans can once again disagree with the President of the United States without being called a racist. However, in a strange twist, it seems that if you do not disagree or criticize President Trump, then now you are a racist. It really makes me wonder who the real racist is in this argument. I think I know the answer.

Tweet

According to those, who have controlled the narrative for far too many years, if you defend yourself, your beliefs, or have any American values you are an evil person. We are not evil people for defending ourselves. We are not evil people for defending our way of life. We are not evil people for loving life and wanting to improve that life. We are not evil for wanting our children and those who come after us to have the same and even more freedoms and, this is the most important part, the responsibilities of a free people.

We have an insurgency in the major population centers of this nation who no longer support the founding principles and traditions of our nation. They no longer care to work toward the common good of the nation as a whole. They want to get “their way.” They only want to impose their will upon the rest of the nation. They have lived under government control for most or all of their lives. They depend on government for so much in their lives; they have lost the basic meaning of what is freedom.

When you live in a cage, you become happy with your captivity. They demand more from government because they fear losing the safety of the cage. Too many trust a faceless, uncaring government bureaucracy more than they do the human beings around them. They have enslaved themselves to the ideas of that perfect socialist society, without understanding the full cost. They just need their streets cleaned and trash removed. What they eat and drink is ultimately determined completely out of their control. The local governments in most cities are determined to forbid their citizens from defending their lives or property. They have been told that guns are the problem not those how use the guns. Hollywood paints a picture of violence that reinforces the notion.

The majority in the urban areas believe that by their sheer numbers alone that they not only absolutely correct in their belief, that they can decide the fate and direction of the nation. That if you live in a rural area, you do not count. A majority of the states not a majority of the population determined the last election. That is the way the founders designed it and I fully support it, since that was the idea behind a republic. The majority that lost are currently throwing something that can only be described as a “tantrum.” Along with this immature display, the anarchist and socialist can use this disorder to create even more disunity in the nation.

I do not know if President Trump can be trusted no more than anyone can fully trust anyone else in public life. I just feel better that maybe, just maybe there will be some real common sense brought back into the government. I can only hope that our government will begin to start protecting the citizens of this nation from enemies from without and within. I hope that we will discontinue the move to globalism, where the government set policies that send American jobs overseas.

For far too many years, governments raised corporate taxes and set overbearing regulations to the point where companies found it easier and more profitable outside of the country. When the Federal Government alone is taking 35% of a company’s profits and told that, they are not paying their “fair share” with no one defends them, why would they not want to leave for another more friendly nation? When they left, they took the jobs with them. The jobs that many Americans need to support their families. The only jobs left paid far less than the jobs that the governmental globalist policy ran away.

I also hope that our government can once again become a Constitutional Government. The 20th century saw the Federal Government overreach their constitutional limits. The growth of that government has caused it to become so removed from the people that I feel that they are no longer a representative government. Far too many of the agencies and government employees are not justified within the confines of our founding document. However, too many people really believe that those agencies are actually involved in what their name implies. Therefore, that makes it harder for a reformer to make the changes that must occur to reestablish our republic. In addition, the large number of government workers makes them a huge voice to push back against any reforms. Not to mention the unions that should have never been allowed to organize government workers.

I pray for our country. I pray for our President. I pray for those who do not agree with me. I pray that we can become that shining city on the hill that everyone want to emulate not invade. We must stop trying to impose “democracy” on the world and show them the way that they can build their own republic. By trying to impose ourselves on the world or trying to buy their friendship, we do nothing that moves the world to a place where humans can live in truly peaceful and prosperous would. However, the promise is there with new leadership in Washington to move us in a new direction.
