Major Battle Won – The War is Not Over – Not By a Long Shot

Current events aside, please don’t read anything into the subject line. As I write this, Biden seems to be promulgating WWIII by authorizing attacking Russian territory with long range missiles and Putin’s obvious response. This is not that but by all means keep an eye on this powderkeg.

Nor is this post specifically geared toward spiritual warfare per se. Yes I am working on a new book concerning spiritual warfare. Yes, both the book and spiritual warfare does pertain to all of this – big time, but this is not that either. As my new book will reveal – spiritual warfare – spiritual battles rage all around all of us all of the time so we cannot really avoid any of that. We don’t even “need” to be aware of any of it. Really. We don’t. Unfortunately our ignorance does not insulate us from the effects of these spiritual battles, as the state of our nation, particularly during the past four years, has demonstrated. We’ve been under constant attack and such attacks will not cease. It will take the return of the Lord Jesus Christ before the final, decisive victory can be declared. Until then, battles will rage.

So if this post is not about all that, what is it about? I thought you’d never ask. While I cannot ignore the spiritual aspects, the war I speak of is the political war for our nation. Yeah. Ugh. Politics. The very thought makes me want to hurl. The good news is we’ve made some major inroads. We are in a good, if precarious, place right now but we cannot let up. We need to push forward and push hard.

Matt Gaetz stepping down from consideration as the United States Attorney General should be a red flag to all of us. His and all of Trump’s nominations should breeze through our “republican” Senate. Why? Because we did it. We spoke.

We re-elected Donald J. Trump, by the massive margin we needed to make our choice as a nation clear. We have the globalists no wiggle room. It was and is a mandate. We bolstered that mandate by electing a majority in both the House of Representatives and the Senate – the trifecta. It is all good – as far as it goes. Anyone reading my blog, or the musings of like-minded patriots should understand the depth of the problem we face. In a phrase it is termed the “Deep State” or “The Swamp”. Let us not be hampered by semantics – our governments – Federal, State, and local are rife with self-serving “public” servants. Taken together they gorge themselves on huge bites of taxpayer dollars while producing little or nothing. Much of what they do accomplish is transferring our wealth to others. By far the worst (or most adept) is embedded in the halls of Federal Government.

WE the People now have a shot – and it may be our only shot – at making this right. This shot was made possible by demolishing the first target – the 2024 election. That cleared the way for our next target – the Senate of the United States of America.

As things stand now the “republican” Senate majority is tentative at best. Oh we have the numbers, the problem is those “numbers” are so much smoke and mirrors because of the RINO contingent. These comprise the bulkhead WE the People must eradicate – or at least conquer. They are dug in. They have strong fortified positions. Part of these are built-in – the six year term. As one pundit pointed out these lengthy terms tend to insulate them from pressure to act upon the “whims” of the electorate. The result is they’ve come to depend on the tendency of the people to have short memories. Once again, “politics” rears its ugly head. Whatever happened to serving those whom they were elected to represent? We need to overcome this. How?

Over this next two years, “we” have to keep the pressure on. In 2026 – 33 US Senate seats will be up for election. This means 33 of the 50 states can directly influence the Senate over the next two years by demanding these Senators get with Trump’s program. Realistically speaking, I expect our “demands” may or may not have any effect. Here in Virginia, we are looking at Mark Warner – a democrat. Our commonwealth just re-elected one of the worst Senators ever to sully the halls of the Senate. I am somewhat surprised and dismayed Senator Tim “Odie” Kaine isn’t required to have someone follow after him with a pooper scooper and disinfectant. Thus I expect it will take a concerted effort to even get Mark Warner’s attention. To his credit he at least appears to want to consider stepping off the democrat party line, unlike his colleague. Time will tell.

Other states may face similar issues. RINO Mitch McConnell is a democrat stalwart despite the (R) after his name. I do think he is convinced the “R” means RINO. His actions certainly don’t contradict my contention. Furthermore I’m thinking there is a good chance he will not seek re-election, thus becoming a lame duck who cares even less about serving his constituents – if that is even possible.

The good news is two-fold. First, we only need a handful of Senators to see the light – or more accurately – the benefit of serving our nation rather than themselves. Additionally, the 2026 election carries a bit of a stick as well – these Senators can be replaced. Again, here in Virginia, I will continue to implore fellow citizens to converge in an effort to wrest the commonwealth from the globalist faction. Already the VCDL – Virginia Citizens Defense League – has recognized 2025 as the year we can finally reclaim our state. We will elect a new Governor as Virginia imposes a one term limit on this office and a swath of State Senators.

Back to the US Senate – should WE the People be less than effective in convincing current Senators to vote for Trump’s agenda – they can be replaced. We did as much in 2024. Looking ahead in 2026 we can strengthen our position by chasing out some of the Swamp Rats holed up in DC. Don’t count Virginia out yet. If we can win the VA legislature, we can then set our sights on Mark Warner’s seat. His only salvation may be to jump ship and join the republican party.

Once again, I’ll remind you that in my own mind, these steps are intermediate. If I had my wish, our public servants would live up to the name – they would serve the public. To me this means they would have no “party” to answer to, just their constituents. As a republic, we are a far cry from this – so far, I do not expect to see it happen in my lifetime.

My encouragement to you, dear Patriot, is to put the pressure on. Make your wishes known to your representatives no matter where you live or how blue they are. Please do keep things simple – most politicians are far from “rocket scientist intelligence”. I suggest we advocate they consistently side with liberty – fewer laws, fewer regulations, less government. Let us push principles over politics.

National Constitutional Carry Legislation Unconstitutional?

Wait! What?

This is my gut reaction to this Ammoland article:

https://www.ammoland.com/2024/11/usa-on-the-cusp-of-national-constitutional-carry/?utm_source=Ammoland+Subscribers&utm_campaign=9d35eee6ef-RSS_EMAIL_CAMPAIGN&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_6f6fac3eaa-9d35eee6ef-21017405

Anyone who thinks they know me might wonder about the subject line of today’s post. After all, I’ve been consistently against gun control laws, so what’s with my opposition to this “non-gun control law”?

The term “consistent” is the key here. Coupled with the fact that the proposed legislation is essentially a thinly veiled gun control law and you may immediately see my point. If must needs, do take a hard look at the wording of the legislation itself. For the record, I have NOT done so myself. I don’t really need to at this juncture. I’m standing on principle – that principle being the wording of the Second Amendment itself.

“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

This is plain enough and as such the 2A defines constitutional carry all by itself. ANY detraction from this is, in a word, infringement. What really bothers me about this proposal is it opens a door for further acceptance of Federal regulation of firearms – in this case the carry of firearms. More succinctly, it’s a back door to federal infringement of the right to keep and bear arms.

For those reasons I’m 100% against it. Better to focus on the real issue – repealing all Federal gun control laws.

 

More on the “Declaration of War on Americans” by Harris/Biden

In reference to my previous posts:

Has Biden/Harris Declared War on America? Literally?

Update on Harris/Biden’s Declaration of War on Americans

The video below suggests I was to cautious in my assessment.

The current administration has authorized the use of lethal force by the United States military on American citizens on  American soil.

While I’ve not heard of this fellow before, this video is straightforward.

Most of the time, I chalk stuff like this up to fearmongering and I won’t have it. In this case, if anyone is mongering fear  – it is the “Biden” Administration.

Kamala – The 1 $Billion Dollar Woman

Last Night (Saturday for those of you inside the Beltway) Mark Levin had Ted Cruz on as a guest. Now I only watched a few minutes of that segment, but what I heard sickened me. The Senator from Texas is once again in the race of his life. His campaign is out of money. His opponent is outspending him by leaps and bounds. He’s already purported to have spent $100 million and is expected to drop another $50 million in the next three weeks. Ted is pleading – begging for money.

Meanwhile Levin points out Kamala Harris has raised a ONE BILLION DOLLAR warchest. Wait! What? Get real! My response to this is – no, she has not.

Let’s face it, Kamala Harris is not that popular. She never will be. The best strategy to win against her in any political contest is simple – just let her speak. Remember that old saying? “It is better to say nothing and have people think you are a fool than to open your mouth and confirm their suspicions.”? Well, there you go. Trust me on this, Kamala is NOT the one keeping her mouth shut.

Back to Ted Cruz – Chuckie Schumer is determined to unseat him. He’s throwing tons of cash to help defeat Cruz. Levin said AOC (NY Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez) has said if the Democrats can win Texas, the state will be forever blue. I doubt if anyone who has heard that woman speak would accuse her of being politically adept so I have to wonder who put that bug in her ear. The scary thing is, she might be right, er, correct.

Meanwhile, that aged swamp creature and perpetual RINO Mitch McConnell, you know, the SENATE MINORITY LEADER, refuses to help Ted Cruz. Why? Petty freaking politics is the stated reason. I have a different angle – McConnell simply wants the Democrats to remain in power. That way he can continue to build his personal bank accounts behind the scenes without all that messy business of having to actually lead the Senate. As a bonus, he can remain in the shadows so nobody can see his true colors.

Now lets talk about that BILLION DOLLAR BABY – Kamala Harris. How on earth did she manage to raise that kind of money? The answer is staring us all in the face. Worse, it is the same answer as to how she was installed as the Democratic hopeful for the most power political seat in the world – it is all smoke and mirrors. We’re talking Wizard of Oz here. Like I said, Kamala Harris did NOT raise $1 billion – all that money came from the sneaky bastards pulling the strings behind the scenes.

If you’ve been paying attention, you’ve seen the same accounts I’ve seen. Most of Kamala Harris’ “donations” is the result of a massive money laundering operation. You see, men like George Soros cannot just hand buckets of cash to people like Kamala – that is against Federal Election Law and could actually come back to bite them. So what do they do? They steal donors. Laugh if you will, I know it has happened because I’ve talked to people – people I know and trust – who have had this happen to. Their names are listed as “donors”, yet they have not, would not, and in fact, would rather be shot by a firing squad, rather than give her a plug nickel. Her warchest is a scam.

Once it hits you that the bulk of these “donations” come from Big Money, the next question should that naturally comes to mind is WHY? (okay I’m using quotes to indicate they are actually such – before some detractor gets his panties in a knot – this money is technically donated – the trouble is they would be better termed “illicit donations”, okay?)

I’ll tell you why – the reality is they aren’t “donations” at all, this money would be better termed as investments – a down payment on the purchase of the politician. Ask Mitch McConnell. I’m sure if you lubricated his tongue enough he could tell you all sorts of stories about such things from personal experience. Actually you could ask just about any politician who has been in the game for a while, I’m sure. Maybe instead of elections, we should institute a system where we could buy and sell our politicians on an open market rather than having to sneak around in dark alleys and smoky back rooms.

The real question we should be asking, rhetorical as it may be, is why is the highest office in our land worth $1 billion dollars and why one seat in the U. S. Senate worth $150 million dollars? We know why. Like I said, the question is rhetorical. So what can we do?

Well, first of all, repeal the 17th amendment. The Senate was never intended to be elected by popular vote and now we know why. The Senate was meant to represent the states, with each sovereign state having an equal say. The terms are six years apart, in part I’d say, to avoid being dominated by any one group (read party).

Second, we should take a hard look at how Presidential campaigns are funded. How is this money being spent? That is my first question. Is it all on media buys? Would capping the amount of time and space a campaign can purchase be contrary to the First Amendment? I’m not so sure it would. How about capping the amount of money campaigns can raise? I’m open to suggestions but I am adamant about the idea that we need to do something to stop the madness.

All this speculation may be for naught. If Kamala wins the White House and/or Cruz loses his Senate seat, we may not have to worry about elections any more. We’ll all have bigger problems to deal with. If you live in Texas, please, Please, PLEASE do whatever you can to keep Ted Cruz in office. Of course, vote for him, vote early if you can so his people can focus on getting more out to vote. Talk to other Texans, help get out the vote, donate, whatever you can do – just do it! Even if it is only posting on social media – every little bit helps. Seriously. I’ll tell you a little secret.

From time to time I make light of my own posts here, referring to both my readers and such. While I cannot tell you how many patriots read my posts or who they might be what I can tell you is from time to time I see ideas expressed here repeated an much larger formats. Now I cannot take credit for all or even any of those things. It might just be that God Almighty is moving others to say or write much the same things as I am moved to. To be fair, that idea seems far more likely to me. However there is always a chance, just a sliver, that something I write here could have far more impact than I could ever hope for. Either way, I write what I write here because I feel I must. In the long run it doesn’t matter to me who, if anybody, ever reads it. I just gotta say it. What about you? When push comes to shove will you feel better if you say what you think you should or if you just clam up? I’ve done the latter and it is those times that haunt me the most. Just sayin’.

Update on the Virginia Republican Party BS – No News is No News

After some tweaking and discussion with some  local guys, I sent the

“Open Letter to the Virginia Republican Party Leadership“

to  the Virginia powers that be on  Friday the 4th of October. Crickets. There was supposed to be a meeting on Saturday to decide whether to bounce the “offending members” from the party. I have heard nothing about this.

On Monday, Oct 7, I did get one reply from a “Dennis Free” He replied

“The ask is within the party plan and motivated by the participation of those party officials in a Republican Primary. Party officials are prohibited from such action. This resolution was approved by the state central committee.

Dennis free (sic)”

That is all the response I got. I replied to Mr. “Free” asking for specific details on exactly what the alleged violation was. I have heard nothing back to date.

As I stated in my open letter, it appears as if the “state central committee” (Yes, I am talking about the Virginia Republican Party, NOT the Soviet Politburo) made up whatever rules as they went along, or rather, twisted existing rules to allow them to appear as if they were acting within said rules. Again, if I am wrong, so be it. I will apologize. Then I will advocate for a rule change. Why? As I said before, I see no reason why any member, party official or not, should not be allowed to express an opinion or  advocate for another member.

Now there has been some discussion about certain tangential issues per party leadership and advocacy. Within our small group, leadership has refrained from seeming to endorse one prospective candidate or another. Whether this is per party rules or personal preference, I don’t know. The reasoning is they don’t want to exert undue influence one way or another. To this I say BUNK!

Dudes. We are all adults here and we are not stupid. Certainly we are each capable of making up our own minds. In fact the idea that just because a majority in any one group voted to put you in a position of leadership that you now have some sort of mystical power to control our wills is ludicrous. We need to move away from these ideas.

The end result of all this seems to do the exact opposite of stated intentions. We now seem to have a “central committee” the rules with an iron fist. They do whatever the hell they want and screw the rank and file if they don’t go along. I say nay. I’m not doing that.

In this respect my “card-carrying membership” in Virginia’s Republican Party may well be short lived. That’s okay. I really don’t give a rat’s ass. As I’ve stated before here and elsewhere, I’d just as soon be rid of all political parties as they are an invasive cancer poised to kill our nation. If you don’t believe me, my next post should make at least one aspect of this very, VERY clear.

An Open Letter to the Virginia Republican Party Leadership

October 3, 2024

An Open Letter to the Virginia Republican Party Leadership

It has come to my attention certain officials in Virginia’s Republican Party have demanded an “Oath of Loyalty” from certain other members. As I understand it, these demands are in response to a letter forwarded to Donald J. Trump requesting he void his endorsement of John McGuire for Virginia’s 5th Congressional District seat and endorse sitting Congressman Bob Good instead.

Now a meeting is being held to decide the fate of those Republican Party members who have declined to sign this oath. My understanding is they have been presented an ultimatum: sign the oath or be banned from the party.

Please excuse my own ignorance as I am a newly minted member of this party, as I am not naturally a “joiner”. I have always registered as a Republican. I wholeheartedly agree with every word in Virginia’s Republican Creed. However I am not well-versed in the rules and bylaws of the party.

That said, the actions of certain individuals in this party appalls me. As far as I can ascertain, the individuals signing this letter did so entirely within those rules and bylaws. The only section one could remotely apply concerns supporting a non-party hopeful. Such is not the case here. Both individuals are Republicans. Not only that but they were seeking support for a duly elected Congressman, Bob Good. All this was prior to the primary challenging Mr. Good.

As a member of this party, I assert my right and the right of every member to write, speak, and vote in favor of any other member of the party who seeks an office until said member is officially endorsed by the party or such endorsement is declined. The very basis of our right to free speech is the ability to share and hold forth our ideas and preferences.

What I find most disturbing is the gall of those supposed “leaders” in the party to subvert the rules agreed to, either by vote or by implied consent, in order to forward some agenda of their own. This is how it appears. Whether or not this is true, said appearance lays directly at the feet of leadership who have utterly failed to communicate to those they serve. In case you need to be reminded – leadership serves the rank and file, not vice-versa.

I’ll remind you here, I am not at all addressing Mr. McGuire’s challenge of Mr. Good. What I am bringing to question is the actions of those who seem to seek to punish members for voicing a dissenting opinion. Nothing more.

If this demand of signing an “Oath of Loyalty” is indeed a result of the letter sent to President Trump, then you, the leadership, have blatantly usurped authority you have not been granted. To that end I make a demand of my own: resign immediately. You have no business representing the membership of this party in any capacity. Your actions demonstrate your total lack of respect for the rules of this party and for us as members. If this was the only issue that has come to my attention, then I might hesitate to make such a demand, but it is not.

Let’s talk about this years 5th District of Virginia’s Congressional Primary itself. Of course I am referring to events in Lynchburg. Imagine my surprise to learn of certain irregularities in the voting process and this from fellow Republicans. As an election official, I was outraged. I expressed my concerns to certain officials. I was not alone. Other citizens also found these charges disturbing. What have I heard from Virginia’s Republican Party officials? Crickets. This should not be.

What is the status of those members involved in this incident? Has every one implicated been cleared of any wrongdoing? If not, then have they been dealt with according to the rules of this organization? If not, why not? Why have party members of this 5th District not been kept apprised of this situation? This is OUR District. This is central to OUR representation in the United States Congress.

Why have you, as so-called leaders of our party, not so much as expressed concern?

On the one hand you want to hang members who do not agree with your political agenda, whatever that may be. On the other hand, you seem to gloss over serious charges of election shenanigans, if not outright fraud.

One belief, one standard that seems to be lacking in politics today is integrity. So many tout the “rule of law” as a banner while merely paying lip service to it. No wonder our nation is crumbling before our eyes. I, for one, cannot tolerate this. Neither should anyone in this party, especially those of you entrusted with the responsibility of serving us rank and file members in a leadership position.

In short: repent or resign. Admit your mistake in seeking signed “Loyalty Oaths” from members simply because they sought a change of heart from another Republican. Apologize to them openly and publicly. Or resign. If the facts of this incident indicate you have indeed exceeded your authority and you refuse to own up to it, then I will advocate your removal from office and the Republican Party.

Your only other recourse at this point is to demonstrate where you have indeed acted in accordance with the established rules and bylaws of the Republican Party of Virginia. Should this be the case, it is I who will offer an apology.

Do the right thing. Stand as an example of how a true Republican should act.

The Elitists Hold on Low-Income Voters

This morning I read a story in The Gateway Pundit about how the democrats plan to cheat. One of their “go to” resources is low income voters.

Thinking back to last night I happened to catch Jesse Watters’ “Johnny On the Street” as he talked to some Kamala delegates at the DNC. I cannot find a clip on that segment so I’ll have to go by rote. God help us all.

Johnny talked to three women, all black, and of course, all democrats. They were at the convention after all. One actually said she loved her laugh. I cringed.

Asked what they liked about her “platform” they said, “reproductive rights”, “green energy”, and “climate”. Um, okay…

A moment here, the subject line points to “low income voters”. I doubt very much if these three women qualify. Convention delegates pay their own way. Some pay “delegate dues” and there may be other costs. (maybe all, having never been either a democrat nor a delegate in any state, I don’t know. I’m drawing this from the California guidelines I drew up. I also know here in Virginia, republican delegates also pay their own way. I don’t know of any delegate dues required for the ‘privilege’.)

Could it be these delegates are subsidized by one group or another? Yeah, it’s possible, but I very much doubt if these ladies spend their days just scraping by. No evidence either way, just a feeling.

So who are these low income voters? Why do they vote democrat? What’s the real deal here?

One of the first thoughts that come to mind is the democrats simply buy these votes. Most likely they are purchased at bargain-basement prices. This is an age-old custom. I remember of stories of party operatives rounding up drunks, homeless, whoever and driving them to the polls on election day, then stuffing their pockets with a few dollars.

In one of the books in in his “Prey” series, author John Sandford sets the scene during a political season in Minnesota. If you are familiar with this series, the protagonist Lucas Davenport is Minneapolis cop in the early books who later moves up and out of the city and the state, profession-wise. John Sanford is a pen name for a journalist turned author. While I’ve never been able to pin down exactly how he stands politically (the mark of a true journalist) he tends to be fairly objective concerning both sides. In the book neither party exactly shines. In this respect I’d say his portrayal is reasonable accurate.

Back to the low income, other than outright buying votes, the democrats especially love to prance around as the “working man’s party”. Plus they love to show how generous they can be with taxpayer money. Of course they never call it “taxpayer money”. Instead they tout “free health care”, “free day care”, “free money”. They never once tell anyone the truth: the true cost of “free” is your soul.

The real wisdom these delegates offered is the message Harris & Co. that is hitting home both with themselves and those low income voters.

Reproductive rights

Green energy

Climate change

All of these catch phrases elicit emotional responses to deep-seated beliefs. Let’s consider each one.

Reproductive rights – like every other elitist catch phrase, “reproductive rights” is an empty shell with a colorful candy coating. This candy coating is flavored with uninhibited sexual freedom with zero consequences. Think about it. What do they really mean by “reproductive rights”? They certainly aren’t talking about reproduction. What they are talking about is unlimited abortions, paid for by somebody else. Why do they need unlimited abortions? They need them to rid themselves of unwanted pregnancies. Nobody is stopping them from having as many abortions as they want in most states. In fact, most states will even pay for them. Alternatively, birth control is affordable and can even be had at no cost in most states. It is a non-issue.

Green energy is a boondoggle. There is nothing at all wrong with the concept, however the idea has yet to come of age. Yes, progress has been made. And yes, it is possible for some to live “off the grid”. I’m all for it. What I am not “all for” is paying for other people to enjoy green energy with our tax dollars. Nobody pays for my home, my food, my clothes, my automobile – why should they? Why should I pay for someone else’s green energy?

Climate change. If green energy is a boondoggle, climate change is outright fraud. Look, historically and by this I mean over the span of the earth’s existence, different regions of our planet have experienced dramatic changes in climate. What are now deserts were once oceans. etc. Considering the age of the earth compared to man’s existence here, it is obvious changes in climate will happen no matter what we humans do or do not do. There is no “cause and effect” here. Or if there is any at all, it is insignificant to the planet. We need to get over ourselves.

Despite the obvious non-starter  status of these so-called “issues”, the democrats have turned them into war cries. Unlike the democrats abuse of the English language, the term “war cry” used here is exceptionally accurate. It refers to something almost as old as mankind. From grunts to trumpets to modern phrases, every culture has used this rallying technique and uses them today – “Remember the Alamo!”, the Rebel Yell, “Never Forget”.  They stir emotions deep within us. This is what the democrats evoke when they use these catch phrases and they do it well.

Every salesman knows emotions trump logic. It is not just salesmen but anyone who endeavors to persuade others understands this principle. The democrats are masters in this respect.

This is how they reach those “low income voters” – at least those they don’t simply buy or bribe.

We know this. We may not admit it. We certainly don’t address it nor counter it but we know this. How many reading this has experienced the frustration of “trying to talk some sense” into a liberal? It rarely produces fruit because we aren’t reaching them on their level.

Most people never move past what they feel. Some try but it is hard to let go. It is hard to admit their basic premises are simply wrong. Add to this the understanding that deep, down, their hearts in their right place. They don’t want to see others suffer any more than we do. So how can we reach them?

How about this? Commiserate with them. Understand their pain. Then gently lead them to a better solution. Nobody wants to see another child shot in Chicago nor anyplace else. It’s heartbreaking, but banning guns doesn’t solve the problem. WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? The liberals point to guns. It’s not the gun, it is the person who pulled the trigger. Why did they shoot? Taking the gun from the shooter’s hand will not remove the problem. The problem is hate and greed. We need to get visceral.

To be blunt, I don’t know the answers – at least not the practical answers. What I do know is one reason the liberals are rabid about banning guns is deep down they want to eradicate problems by remote control. They don’t want to leave their comfortable jobs, their homes, their neighborhoods, to venture where the “gun violence” lives, roll up their sleeves and be part of the solution. I’m not sure I do either.

These dark  streets where violence lives need God most of all. I know this in my bones and yet I’m not anxious to bring the Word of God to them. If God called me to do so, no doubt I would resist that calling. God forgive me.

This is where the liberals shine. They are masters at finding ways to delegate solutions. Their most effective method of delegation? The Program. Any program will do. Just throw money at it and it will go away. We know this is not true. We can prove it, but we don’t need to. They know it it too. They don’t care. Throwing money, somebody else’s money, at problems allows them to dismiss any issue. There. Done. Now let me live my life free of guilt.

I’m “thinking aloud” here but it seems the only way out is to find a way to scratch that itch – solve whatever issue – or divert attention to something larger and more pressing.

The “good” news is, we may not have to. Our nation has turned the corner on spending and debt. All we need do is continue on this present path – continue to do nothing and those issues that concern US will soon dissolve before our eyes. Unfortunately, so won’t our nation. At the very least, our economy will collapse and we will all face much larger, more crucial problems – like survival.

Can this be averted? I believe it can but only if we act and act quickly.

First and foremost we need to go before God and pray for His hand of protection over our nation and His deliverance from the evil forces ruling our nation. We need godly people to rise up to replace the ungodly.

Second, we need to retake our nation by the force of a massive voter turnout. Real voters. If the citizens of our nation continue to allow others to make choices for them, those choices will come back to bite all of us. If you have read this far, you are now faced with a choice. Walk away or take action. Pray. Speak to others. Persuade someone to vote.

Winning the White House alone will not do it. We need to win both houses in Congress. We need to win as many seats in state and local elections as possible. We need to send a message, a strong message, a mandate.

That is our starting place. From there we need to weed out the RINOs, rid ourselves of tyrannical globalists, put liberty-loving patriots in their seats, and hold them all accountable.

Our war cry? LIBERTY!

 

Strange Bedfellows? Trump and RFK Jr.

Note here – I am currently involved in writing an extended piece (a book maybe) on spiritual warfare. Your prayers for me and for this project are appreciated.

Not too long ago, my wife told me RFK Jr’s presidential bid was siphoning off votes from Trump. I scoffed a bit about this. Seriously? I fully expected his run to split the democrat vote. I’m still having a hard time understanding how this could be. Some are taking this very, very seriously.

This morning I saw an article on a propaganda organization formerly known as FOX. I didn’t read it because now, rather than actually publishing the news, they want my email address so they can relentlessly bother me with offers and other schemes to enhance their revenue. The good news is… competition! This time from Zerohedge.

The article? A stunning report revealing RFK Jr’s running mate Nicole Shanahan appeared on a podcast yesterday and stated team RFK was considering dropping their bid and throwing in with Trump!

Wow! Such was my first reaction. My next thought was “game changer”. Look, I’ve seen a couple of Kennedy’s appearances. At first he seemed like a viable choice. He was a hard on the whole COVID scamdemic. He was hard on a lot of liberal issues. In the end, he failed on the subject of liberty. At heart, he’s a globalist.

Could this be a ploy to strong-arm the Harris campaign into playing nice? While this is possible I think that play is long gone. The democrats have repeatedly disrespected and abused Kennedy. I don’t think it helps that the Harris campaign has now been dubbed Kamalot. While when Camelot was linked to the Kennedy’s , the reference always made my stomach turn. We don’t need no stinkin’ royalty in ‘Merica. For RFK Jr.  I’m sure it adds insult to injury.

Bottom line? He’d have a BIG bitter pill to swallow to sidle up the Harris & Co. now. While I don’t much like his politics, I think he is a better man than that.

Should they follow through with this, and with Shanahan’s public pronouncement, it looks like it could well happen. I’d like to see it as it would be the best of all possible worlds for Trump… and for America. Besides, who knows? There might be hope to bring Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to the light yet! Wouldn’t that be something?

Kamala Harris Doubles Down on Evil – Announces Tim Walz as her VP Pick WHY?

Rather than wring my virtual hands over Harris’ choice for VP, I intend to skip over any attempt at analyzing Walz or picking apart either presumed candidates’ qualifications, or lack of thereof. Instead I’d like to dig a bit deeper. Why in the world would Kamala Harris, or rather her handlers, choose Minnesota Governor Tim Walz to run for Vice President of the United States?

Ideologically these two are identical twins or nearly so. Whatever you may dimly you may view her mental wattage, Kamala Harris, shines as the poster child for socialist/communist/globalist propaganda. The Puppet Masters would be hard-pressed to find a politician more radically unAmerican, anti-liberty, and pro-tyranny than her. They did, however, find yet another pea in the same pod – Tim Walz. Taking in this wider perspective, we must first dispense with the idea that this leftist stain was Kamala’s choice. Like her, he will be installed – assuming they actually are the “chosen ones” of the democrat party’s politburo. My quest to uncover the “why” of all this branches into three plausible answers.

The politburo knows a lost cause when they see one so they will salvage what they can by further indoctrinating their audience as much as possible.

The democrat party bosses are convinced enough of the the American People have been softened enough by their propaganda to actually vote for it into being.

The Puppet Masters are confident the fix is in. They cannot lose so they are going for the brass ring. Subsequently they don’t give a hoot who sees their true colors.

If you think about it, none of these assumptions (theirs, not mine) require any change in an overall strategy on their part. They are free to roll out their agenda in full force with no regard to any backlash or opposition. No matter what radio station you tune it to – the song remains the same. Now let’s take a gander at each of these in a little more depth.

The Politburo Knows a Lost Cause When They See One

In a word… no. I can’t buy this one. These guys are simply to arrogant to even consider the idea they could lose. No doubt they believe their own fake polls. Don’t get me wrong, they are stupid. In fact they are quite the opposite and far more realistic than most would give them credit for. How else could they persevere for decades, generation after generation, to reach their prize of a one-world government many would never see? Granted it doesn’t hurt that while they patiently endure our constitutional republic, they live like kings in the lap of luxury as they plunder our wealth. But that brass ring – that jewel – the pearl of great price – complete and utter global power – has escaped them. Only of late has it been within their reach, just beyond their touch.

The Puppet Masters Are Confident The Fix Is In

Realistic as they may be, they revel in the near total success of the current administration. They’ve accomplished so much in their goal to weaken, if not destroy the foundations of our nation. Add to this their unrelenting pursuit of this coming election – cementing as much of the cheats and steals they used to install Joe Biden in the White House while tweaking and adding as many new and improved ways to manufacture and shift votes to their side. I’d say they fully expect to win.

While I suspect they are all in as far as their commitment to winning this election, they know they cannot rest yet. First they are wary. The Trump/Biden debate was either a blunder or a risky gambit. I content the latter is more likely. Why? Behind the scenes it became evident Joe wasn’t going to make it through November. Whether he had some sort of breakdown or something else happened, it was only a matter of time before he could no longer be hidden nor propped up “Weekend At Bernie’s” style. So they agreed to a historically early debate where Biden fell on his face in front of the entire nation.

So play the gambit, toss Joe under the bus, rise up Kamala to save the day. Whip out the fanfare, raise up the cheers, let us all applaud – Kamala has arrived. Play to her strengths – her womanhood, her skin color, her ability to read a teleprompter. Diver attention from the weakness of her record, her incompetence, her total lack of impromptu speaking ability. As for her political record… duck and weave. Avoid punches by shifting the sands. Be the chameleon.

Meanwhile they continue to salt everything with heavy doses of socialist propaganda. Never relent. Never let up. Push the Utopian narrative. Paint that beautiful picture of a land where everyone lives a full life teeming with pure pleasures – sex without children, no responsibilities, free from the shackles of gender, free education, free health care, free everything. In a word – paradise.

Add to all this, millions of illegals ushered over our borders, equipped with everything from housing to unlimited debit cards, and armed with spanking new voter id cards are waiting in the wings to answer the call to pull the blue lever.

In short the politburo is determined to cover all the bases to move their agenda forward. This election could very well put their goal line in sight. A win here is almost certain to make way for that last straw that brings our nation to the knees.

So how does Tim Walz fit into all this?

Softening the American Public For The Coming Globalist Push

First, let me state the obvious – they, the politburo, the Puppet Masters, the party bosses, don’t care what anyone thinks of Tim Walz. They are confident they can control as much of the buzz as they need to. They will spin. They will dodge. They will continue to lie outright. None of this is new. They are experts at the slight of hand.

Second, it seems they want someone who can actually vocalize their agenda. Kamala cannot, not without a script. Tim Walz apparently can. From what I can see he is a true believer in the cause, a true useful idiot if I ever saw one. Tim Kaine was spent on the failed installation of Hillary. It’s Tim Walz’s turn to go full-Odie. His job is to sell the dream.

While I’m loathe to admit it, the globalists have a massive following. While I don’t for a moment a majority of Americans are ready to jump on the globalist bandwagon, we are closer than we’ve ever been. Offered a choice between a pure socialist and a pure conservative, the result would be much closer than many of us would find comfortable. How close? I don’t know. Maybe not 50/50 but would 60/40 make you feel any better.

In other words is 40 out of 100 people would vote for a pure socialist without hesitation, how would that make you feel? What if the outcome was 48/52? Yeah, now you’re getting it, especially when you realize that 50 years ago, 20/80 would have been considered earth shattering. That time frame is within my lifetime.

It is no longer a question as to whether our nation has softened. The only question is how much. The follow up question is how long before the scales are tipped to the advantage of the globalists? Enter Tim Walz, stage left. He need not be the “Billy Graham” of socialist evangelists. In fact, it matters little whether he converts anyone at all. What matters is his relentless spouting of the globalist gospel.

It’s been a long hard road for the globalists. They’ve endured much, albeit in luxury. They’ve been patient. Now there seems to be light at the end of their tunnel. Like any Christian (or Cubs fan), they surely keep telling themselves if they believe hard enough, it will come to pass. They can almost taste the victory. Will this election be the deciding game? Nobody knows. What should be obvious to all is whoever emerges the winner in November, the result will have strong repercussions for our nation.

 

Don’t Feel Neglected – What’s New

Bluntly put it’s hard to believe my last post was on Independence Day. Time flies. What have I been doing? Ask the NSA, they know. Kidding… kinda.

I suppose I should start back to when SCOTUS handed down a couple of rulings, including one that rippled through those keeping an eye on our J6 Political Prisoners. This prompted my July 2 post. That pretty much explains what I’ve been up to. I am continuing to work on one or more events to help these J6ers and their families.

Since then I’ve been in contact with a few individuals on the front lines of this scandalous outrage, including one J6 defendant in particular – Jalise Middleton. If ever someone touched my soul, it is Jalise. Her and her husband Mark are currently remanded to house arrest. They are allowed to go to church and shop for groceries. That is about it. I have no idea how they pay for those groceries.

They also founded and are involved in American Patriot Relief

While this is a non-profit organization founded to help J6 Political Prisoners, Mark and Jalise do not accept any monies from there own organization themselves. This fact alone stuns me.

More than this, my wife and I only spoke to Jalise on the phone for a few minutes when her godly heart floored me. It wasn’t “one thing” it was everything. She’s been put through the ringer, along with her husband. (I’ve never had the privilege to talk to him.) She’s taken everything thrown at her in stride and continues to be meek and thankful. All this while facing up to forty years in prison. Forty years?! What for?

Here are the charges straight from the latest DOJ press release:

A federal jury convicted Mark Middleton, 55, and Jalise Middleton, 54, both of Forestburg, Texas, of two counts of assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers, civil disorder, and obstruction of an official proceeding. All of these are felony offenses.

In addition to the felonies, the Middletons were convicted of misdemeanor offenses of entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds,disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds,engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in the Capitol grounds or building, and act of physical violence in the Capitol grounds or building.

My, it sure sounds like they’re mastermind criminals, now doesn’t it? WTF happened? Here is a 2 minute timeline provided by Jalise.

That’s it. What happened there is the crux of the government’s case against the Middleton’s. They are now felons and as such their rights to vote, keep and bear arms, among others are forfeit. As of today, they await sentencing. According to this press release it was set for June 12,2024.  It was since changed to July 15th and now moved to August 9th.

Above all this Jalise remains steadfast and hopeful. She seems far more concerned about other J6 Political Prisoners. In fact, she demonstrates far more angst when the topic turns to two such Political Prisoners who have recently been released,  who were handed a ticket to take them into DC and told they had to stay in the area until their probation ended. I believe this probation period to be one year but this has not been confirmed.

Thus they have no access to family, no friends, no job, no place to live. Oh, and they are expected to give them an address where they are living within a specified period of time. Is this how all convicts are treated? If it is not then once again, said treatment is unconstitutional.

More is coming concerning the plights of these defendants and others. This is not over – not by a long shot.

Virginia’s Primary 2024 – The Stink of Corruption

Per my last post on this topic, I’d written off this primary, saying the outcome doesn’t matter, or rather what is really important is to hold whoever sits in the 5th Congressional Seat of Virginia accountable, as all citizens should endeavor for all representatives. Now this primary result DOES matter. What changed?

Allegations of Impropriety, i.e. the stink of corruption. THIS cannot stand.

It’s no secret I voted for Bob Good, I posted here the reasons why I intended to do so despite certain reservations. Today’s post should not be considered any sort of “sour grapes” on my part. I’d accepted the situation and moved on. The news of shenanigan both surprised and shocked me. I just  happened upon them doing other things and there it was.

Here is the story as released to the press by Peter Alexander

I don’t know who Peter Alexander or Chris Faraldi are. A quick search suggests both are politician types. both republicans. Alexander seems to be more conservative. The early into in the above letter suggests he and Faraldi do not see eye to eye on many issues. In fact, Alexander has little good to say about Faraldi.

Alexander is calling for a recount. I will go further than this. There needs to be a full investigation into these allegations with full intent to prosecute any alleged illegal actions. Simply saying “oops, my bad” and sliding past a potentially devious attempt to cheat cannot be tolerated.

As an election official I took an oath as did every other citizen participating as such. I swore to “support the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Virginia and support the Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Virginia“. 

What good is an affirmation if there is no consequence for ignoring it?

Today, Monday, June 24, 2024 I’ll be hosing an X space event on this at 9AM. All are invited. You may speak if a slot becomes available.

Bob Good – John McGuire Virginia 5th Congressional District Primary – June 18th 2024: The Decision

 

Recently I posted concerning Donald J. Trump’s endorsement of John McGuire over Bob Good for Virginia’s 5th Congressional District. This is my district. As of now Bob Good is my congressman, so I’m taking this seriously – VERY seriously.

That said, I’m sticking with Bob Good. He has my vote for this primary. I won’t go far as to call this an “endorsement” – not because I hesitate to do so but my opinion is that of another mere citizen. As such it should hold no more weight than this. Besides this, I doubt if any endorsement from me would do Bob Good any, well, good.

As I stated before, I have a couple of issues with Mr. Good. After contacting his office via his website and official “contact” form, I received no response. None. This is bad. Not just for me but for any constituent. Secondly, he needs to get on the ball concerning the J6 political prisoners. All they can do is suffer unimaginable horrors while most us go about our daily lives without giving them a thought.

As for Trump’s issues with Bob Good, well, sure I understand his problem but he’s also forgiven others for much worse than endorsing his rival. I saw the video MTG posted and Bob made sense. At some point I was giving DeSantis some consideration myself. I stopped short of any idea of voting for him but I was warming to the idea of him in the VP slot. Paul Ryan’s endorsement stopped that idea cold.

All in all, Bob Good is a solid conservative as far as I can see but I wanted another opinion. Then I realized I could try to reach out to someone I’ve come to respect. Nick Freitas.

If the name doesn’t ring a bell, he is a member of Virginia’s House of Delegates. In fact he represents the district where I once lived – Culpeper ,VA. I’ve written about him before. He stood tall while speaking against gun control in the House. He stood for citizens during the 2A Sanctuary movement. In fact he is the ONLY Virginia representative who joined citizens as they swarmed county board meetings in support of 2A Sanctuary resolutions in my memory. Beyond that, he famously won a write-in campaign for his Delegate seat when a paperwork snafu bumped him from the official ballot.

So I reached out on a Twitter dm and he replied. Note, I warned him in advance that I might post his response on this blog with his permission. After he responded, I asked for and was granted said permission. Here is what Nick Freitas had to say…

Hello Andrew.

I have endorsed Bob Good. I think Bob is a very genuine conservative and he stands by his word, which goes a long way with me. In Congress I am looking for people who are willing to risk everything to stand up for what they believe in, even if it means standing against your own leadership at times.

I have known John McGuire for some time. John ran against me in a primary once. He accused me of being a “California liberal” and a “swamp creature,” despite the fact that I have always had a better voting record than him. He also likes to claim that he had the convention “stolen” from him despite the fact that I won all 3 rounds. I know that sounds personal, but the bottom line is, I have a problem with a guy who tells you he is going to run a clean race, because we’re friends, and then as soon as it becomes obvious that he is behind in the polls, he starts lying about you because he wants to win.

While it was all good, what really stood out was John McGuire’s accusations. Nick Freitas is anything but a “California liberal” and certainly not a “swamp creature” as far as I can tell. In fact those very accusations mirror exactly the globalist tactic of accusing one’s opponents of those things they are doing themselves. This as much confirmed what I previously learned about McGuire being hand-picked by Keven McCarthy.

By the way, didn’t Trump also endorse and stand firmly behind Kevin McCarthy?

We all know The Donald is not perfect. Who amongst us is? Why, then, do we expect perfection from Bob Good? I don’t. That said, I do support his bid for re-election to the House of Representatives and, should he be successful, I will then earnestly take him to task about those issues I brought up.

However, should you win, Mr. McGuire, take notice, your own words and actions have dropped your trust level a few notches on my scale. Thus you will be subject to even greater scrutiny from me. No matter who wins this nomination, I expect you to fully represent this district – not your political cronies.

What’s In a Name? Citizen Action Memes

This post is more of admin notice than anything else. Since I designed and added the QR Code graphics like the one below last weekend, I’ve been struggling with what to call them. I decided to call them “memes” though they probably are such in the truest sense of the word. Anyway… what sort of meme? Well since it urges others to vote – I thought “Voter Action Meme” but that never sat right because they are designed to encourage citizens to register to vote. Voting comes later.  I like the “action” part because these are all about action –

Scan Register Vote 

Yeah. Then it came to me: “Citizen Action Meme”. Much better. Citizens can take action in two ways here.

First,  those citizens who are not registered can do it and do it now. All they need is their cell phone and whatever documentation their state requires.

Then any citizen can use these to encourage others to register as well.

This is the key. One man one vote and then each one win one.

We need each other because one voice, one vote alone often goes unheard. If we join with like minded citizens then, in concert, we can make some real noise.

This is what we need. Let’s make some noise!

Vote Like A Boss – The Ground Floor of a November Groundswell

As you might have gathered I’m deeply interested in making an effort to get out the vote. I am not alone in thinking this November is crucial to our nation – even to our very existence and sovereignty.
My focus is not so much in a local effort. I’m more interested in making an impact state and nationwide.
To that end, I’ve developed the concept – “Vote Like a Boss”, inspired in part by a lady who has a podcast “Stacey on the Right“.
The concept itself is simple: offer wearable and portable products embedded with QR codes anyone can purchase and take anywhere. Each QR code links to the online voter registration page for the owner’s particular state. The graphic is designed to attract attention and urge immediate action – scan the code, visit the page, register to vote.
The true beauty of this is there is nothing to join, no commitment required. Anyone who decides just do a little bit – like buy a sticker or a coffee mug, doesn’t have to do another damn thing. Go another step and someone might just take up the challenge and register and (hopefully) vote.
Then again if every one who takes the plunge encourages another citizen to vote – we could be looking at a groundswell of new, bona-fide voters come November.
My first effort was a line of T-shirts then Mugs (white and black background), Stickers – various sizes, notebook, Sports bottle, a tote and posters of various sizes. The poster shown is with a white background but I also have one with black as it makes the colors really pop.
Most everything at this moment is focused in Virginia with a few from New York where I grew up and still have people. Leave a comment or end me an email if you want your state moved to the front of the line.
Vote Like a Boss Virginia T-shirt and tote. Note the T-shirt now offered features a QR code on the sleeve as well. Both QR codes link to that state’s online voter registration page.
I’m preparing to sell on Shopify and Etsy as well but I need to add products for each state that offers online voter registration. T-shirts first, then the other sundries.
I’m looking to promote this any way I can. I started by posting a bit on FB and X but those efforts are minimal at this point. I need to finish building out the product lines for the other states before I roll out any major promotional efforts.
My hope of hopes is this will all go viral. It could just as easily crash and burn. Either way, I cannot NOT give this a shot.
