Two Shocking Statements

 

I am going to make two statements-- here and now-- that will cause woke Marxists to throw a tantrum and scream into the sky. (If any woke Marxists are reading this, please set down your Palestinian flags and the keys to your Prius hybrids…and move to your nearest safe space. For your own good. I care.)

First, “diversity” in and of itself is not a “value,” nor a good thing. In fact, very often it is destructive. And it is destroying the formerly United States as we speak. 

Second, tolerance is where nations go to die.

Diversity of crime, violence, pain, and injustice is not a good thing. Nor is diversity of ignorance, prevarication, apathy, or evil. Truth be told, today’s “progressives” claim to worship diversity, but only of skin color, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation. And, perhaps, depravity. They themselves have zero tolerance for traditional values, conservative thought and opinion, the freedom for others to disagree with them…and anyone or thing that dares to challenge their power.

We are tolerating our kids being indoctrinated instead of educated in our schools. We are tolerating the mutilation of their genitalia, and the consequent theft of their sexual health in their adult years…often aided and abetted by their “educators.” We tolerated lockdowns and the mandatory introduction of experimental mRNA vaccines into our bodies. And being told we couldn’t attend the weddings or funerals of our loved ones.

And It appears highly likely that we are going to tolerate the ruination of our economy, as we are tolerating the destruction of our urban areas. It seems a near certainty that we will tolerate the demise of the nuclear family, as we are halfway there already. In fact, odds are, we will tolerate the utter dissolution of our society, and the death of America herself, as we have tolerated an open southern border. We may even tolerate being led down the road to hell, a road that is getting shorter every day.

The Climate Change Hoax A Direct Threat To, Well, Everything

 

Climate change? And we're looking back basically 150 years? Out of the 4.54 billion years the earth has been in existence? That is not even a measurable percentage. It is statistically insignificant, in the manner that white supremacists are to America’s population.

This is as if “experts” studied the northern hemisphere, measuring light from late June until mid-December and decided that mankind, in these heavily populated industrial areas of the north, was causing the hemisphere to grow ever darker. “There can be no debate, the science is settled,” they might well claim. “Man-caused darkness is a fact.” But the science wouldn't be settled. They would just be wrong. Like they have been about every single catastrophic prediction and projection pertaining to global warming thus far. Much as they were wrong about the COVID-19 vaccines, the lockdowns, Hunter Biden's laptop, Russian collusion, and far too many other things to list here.

That much is settled.

The following is a brief history of changes on earth: First, there was no earth. Then there was an earth. Then there was ‘primordial soup,’ if you choose to believe the experts. Then, life somehow appeared. All of the planet’s land was together in one giant continent called Pangia. And then that giant landmass started breaking apart, separating into multiple continents that began gaily drifting away from each other. Then there was an Ice Age. Then there was interglacial warming. At some point, dinosaurs became extinct. We still don't know why. Then there was another freaking Ice Age. Then there was another period of rapid warming. Then there was an Ice Age again. Then there was yet another period of rapid warming. Lather, rinse, repeat. Twice. Through all of this, there was nary an automobile, lawnmower, or gas stove… let alone a city, factory, or coal processing plant in existence. In fact, for the vast majority of this time, homo sapiens did not exist. So now tell me again about climate change.

Climate change started out as the ‘global warming’ scare (which came hard on the heels of the ‘global cooling’ scare), but when the climate did not act in ways that the global warming alarmists predicted, they simply changed what they called the ongoing existential threat. “Climate change!” they exclaimed. “The planet’s climate is changing, and we are to blame.” The climate changes? Well, that's a safe bet. Maybe the next time I’m in Las Vegas I will stop in at the local sports book and tell them I want to bet on, say, the Cowboys-Eagles game. “Which side do you like?” they might ask. “Cowboys -3 or Eagles +3?”

“Neither,” I’d reply, “I Just want to bet that the score will change throughout the course of the game!”

Pretty sure I might be ‘escorted’ out.

It is the elites telling us that the Green New Deal must be implemented for our own good who should be escorted out. Those trying to promptly ban fossil fuels, internal combustion engine vehicles, gas stoves, etc., would spend us into oblivion while destroying people’s livelihoods and pursuit of happiness, the economy…and the very environment they claim to want to save.

The world would, in fact, grow darker. But, hey, you might own nothing…and like it. Right?

If we allow this to happen, man-caused chaos, pain, and deprivation would be all too real.

Will we?

Unfortunately, ‘global dumbing’ I can believe in.

'Fly Me To The Moon': A Tale Of JFK, Sinatra, And Trump

 

There is a new movie out called “Fly Me To The Moon.” To which I say, “It’s about time, we haven’t been back there in more than 50 years,” as incredible as that may seem. And it does seem incredible, given the (astronomical?!) advances in computer technology during that time. In 1972, when man last walked on the moon, there were no cell phones and only 3 main television stations in the United States. Richard Nixon was president. And gasoline was 36 cents a gallon.

There was nothing the U.S. couldn’t do or achieve.

So, when Apollo 11 landed on the moon and Buzz Aldrin became the first human to trod upon a celestial sphere, the song emanating from his portable tape recorder was, in fact, Sinatra’s “Fly Me To The Moon.” The great Mark Steyn characterized that moment as “the insouciant swagger of the American century breaking the bounds of the planet.” Indeed.

JFK challenged his nation to land on the moon by the end of the 1960s. He did this only 8 years prior.

JFK. Fighter pilots cum astronauts. Sinatra. This is back when men had balls and women did not.

It occurs to me that there are distinct similarities between JFK, fighter pilots, astronauts, Sinatra…and Trump. Especially between Sinatra and Trump. Both were born in—or near—New York City. One crafted songs, the other buildings…and deals. Both were brash and controversial. Both performed at a high level for many years. Both were tough. But both deeply loved their immediate family and the country at large.

JFK (despite his faults), fighter pilots, astronauts, Sinatra (despite his faults), and Trump (despite his faults) all contributed to making America great…or great again. As opposed to the Biden-Harris administration-- and today’s Democrats-- who disdain the very country they lead—and hope to see to its demise. They are well on the way to succeeding in their attempt to make America fail. And our enemies are taking note.

Donald Trump may be the last man standing. Despite the assassination attempt.

His opponents are coming after him because they are coming after us. And the very idea of America.

We are in desperate need of some ‘insouciant swagger’ right now.

Fraudulent Phrases

 

“Climate change.”

“Black Lives Matter.”

Could there be any more obviously correct but now banal statements or phrases?

How about “clean air,” “fresh water,” or “All Lives Matter?” Oops, maybe not the latter. I mean, we know the unborn don't matter, right? (If you utilize that phrase, you may find yourself being roundly excoriated by a “Karen” or two.) And the non-ebony aren't so hot, either. How? How lame. How exclusionary.

Perhaps “Puppies forever?” “Seasons change?” “Sun hot?” “Ice cold?” “Water wet?” “Female vagina?” Oh, again, maybe not that last one. Sorry.

“Oxygen good?” “AOC dumb?”

“Democrats Evil?”

Newspaper Article Preposterously Equates KKK Members With Christianity, Patriotism

 

No matter how much you disdain and despise the mainstream media…it is not enough. Not nearly enough.

Case in point: the newly rebranded “Minnesota Star Tribune” recently ran an article—on the front page of the ‘A’ section—about the history of the KKK in Minnesota. The headline read “Her mission: Documenting history of KKK in Minnesota.” Clever. The piece never mentioned the Democrat Party, never once noted that the party was the home of the KKK, the pro-slavery party, the Jim Crow party, the anti-integration party, the anti-reconstruction party. Misinformation. Disinformation. Mal-information. Lying by omission. Shameful.

Instead, the article hinted throughout that it was those with the mindset of today’s Trump Republicans that were responsible for the horrors of extreme discrimination. The story, by Trey Mewes, cited the work of recently retired Steele County librarian Nancy Vaillancourt, and noted, “The KKK spread to many corners of the state, from Minneapolis to Virginia, where school board members all claimed they were KKK members and urged that the Bible be taught in public schools.” Gag me. I doubt that every school board member in Virginia—or Minneapolis—in a state that promptly volunteered to fight for the union in the Civil War, upon entering the union, was a proud, card-carrying member of the KKK. But the real point was to smear Christianity, by saying that these wildly racist animals “urged that the Bible be taught in public schools.” The Bible—in part-- was taught in many public schools at the time. And the attempt to associate Christians with the KKK is more than absurd. It is the opposite of reality…and singularly repulsive. Many Christians were abolitionists.

The paper that some in Minnesota call “Fish Wrap West” (as opposed to the Saint Paul Pioneer Press, which is “Fish Wrap East”)-- and others use as a liner for their bird cages-- went on to state that “KKK members at the time denounced what they called outside influence from foreigners, Catholics, Jews, and anyone who didn’t agree with Christian nationalist teachings.” Yeah, sure, those who wanted to keep African-Americans enslaved were devout Christian nationalists who wished to indoctrinate or intimidate anyone who wasn’t. Those responsible for this article might’ve been thinking of a different religion, truth be told.

This attempt at “journalism” was beyond pathetic. It was akin to chronicling and bemoaning the Holocaust without mentioning the Nazi party. It was as if a historian wrote of America’s war with Japan without mentioning the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Texas Voter Roll Clean Up Casts Doubt On The 2020 Election

 

         Texas Governor Greg Abbott recently announced that the Lone Star State’s effort to clean up its voter rolls has resulted in more than 1 million names being removed.

                       Since Senate Bill 1 was signed into law in 2021, individuals who have moved out of the state, are noncitizens, or who have passed away have been taken off voter rolls. Indeed, thousands of noncitizens have been removed from the rolls. This, of course, greatly angers Democrats, who fervently believe that non-residents, non-citizens-- and the dead-- should be able to vote. As often as they like.

                       Abbott released a statement saying, “Election integrity is essential to our democracy. I have signed the strongest election laws in the nation to protect the right to vote and to crackdown on illegal voting. These reforms have led to the removal of over one million ineligible people from our voter rolls in the last three years, including noncitizens, deceased voters, and people who moved to another state.” Fascist! Hater! Far-right racist! How dare he try to prevent the dead from voting! Is he trying to destroy our democracy?!

                       A million names came off of one state’s voter rolls? And the 2020 presidential election was determined by as few as 50,000 total votes in just three states?! And Democrats and pundits still claim the election was the most secure in American history?! (Covers mouth, coughs while saying “bullshit!”)

                       That claim might be slightly more credible if Democrats weren’t “freaking out over Republicans’ efforts to stop illegal aliens from voting,” as The Gateway Pundit recently reported. Or if Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson hadn’t issued a direct threat to any local election officials who might choose not to certify the upcoming 2024 election results in the event of fraud, saying, “We will come for you.” Or if states had honored the request of RFK, Jr. to be removed from their ballots. Or if the California Senate hadn’t passed a law banning voter ID in local elections.

                       Republicans’ pathetically tepid efforts to prevent Democrats from stealing elections in the future apparently haven’t assuaged the fears of Democrats that the Bad Orange Man could somehow win in 2024. Therefore, many are hoping and planning for a quick return of COVID-19…and especially the accompanying draconian lockdowns and mail-in voting that were the hallmarks of the previous pandemic.

British Invasions, Then And Now

 

Remember the “British Invasion?” It occurred in the 1960s (and 1970s) when bands like The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Animals, The Kinks, The Hollies-- and several others—became wildly successful in the United States.

Can you name me a wildly popular British band today? (Okay, other than The Rolling Stones.)

Crickets.

There is a reason for this, albeit a sad one. Britain is spent. Its society is in decay. It has lost its toughness, its confidence, and its creative excellence. A kind of benign snobbery has been replaced by an ennui and world-weariness more suitable to the French.

The notions of free speech and individual rights are in tatters. Britain is the victim of another kind of invasion and is being effectively annexed by mass migration from Muslim lands. The vast majority of these immigrants are unwilling to assimilate to British culture, odd for people fleeing violence and depredation. They are, in fact, demanding that England—and the English—assimilate to them.

Remarkably, many Brits appear willing to do just that.

In which case, music may eventually be banned in (formerly) Jolly Olde England. An England that is undeniably old, but increasingly less jolly.

Tragically, the U.S. (which somehow survived two other British invasions in the distant past), as well as several other Western nations, are following hard on the heels of Britain.

And that should not be music to anyone’s ears.

Democrats: Trashing Our Past, Ruining Our Present, Stealing Our Future

 

It is all working out as planned for the progressives. They divide us, break us up, atomize us, make us hate each other, drive us all crazy. And then the shootings occur. And then they have us scared. And then they can control us, disarm us, and lock us down ”for our own good.” Meaning their ever-growing, eternal power. And some of these elite progressive/Marxist wackos in power actually get aroused with each and every additional shooting… because they know they can use them to Their advantage-- in both the short and the long term. That is the true nature of the evil we are facing. And it is an evil that cannot be defeated unless we are willing to make it so, no matter the cost. The cost of not doing so is unimaginable.

Up until around World War II, kids in certain rural areas were bringing their .22 rifles and their Remington shotguns to school. There was far less gun control. And no one got shot. In England today, masses of people are getting stabbed, yet just a couple of decades ago this was virtually unheard of. In Sweden, scores of women are getting raped, whereas a few scant decades ago violent crime was nearly unheard of in the Nordic nation. So, what has changed?

It is not the guns. It is not the knives. It is the takeover of every major institution by progressives/Socialists/Marxists … and their fanatical efforts to trash our past, ruin our present, and deprive us of life, liberty, and happiness in the future. It is time, instead, for we the people to deprive them of their power. It is time to remove ourselves from the vast government plantation.

The Founders said it best:

WHEN in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation.
          We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness—-That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. 

Just so.

Someone recently asked me if, when I was 14 years old, I ever thought of obtaining a gun and shooting up a school. This is a typically ludicrous, insulting, and utterly off base question… the kind progressives like best. I replied, “No, I wouldn't have contemplated it at 4, 24, or 44-years-of-age, or last week for that matter.” Nor would I have thought of stabbing someone, strangling someone, or accosting them with a bat, weed whacker, or candelabra. In fact, were the government to mandate that I do so, I would not have complied. We owe our allegiance not to a king, but to the King of Kings. More to the point, we only owe allegiance to a government as long as it respects us, serves us, and protects our inherent rights. None of which it is doing today. The same can sadly be said for the governments of Canada, England, France, Germany, Australia, and others, though none of those nations’ citizens were gifted the same freedoms and independence as were Americans because of their country's unique founding, which made these their birthright.

Our current leaders utilize every tragedy and pandemic to take away our rights, not protect them. Whether it be our right to best protect ourselves, to free speech, or to freely gather, they disdain them all. Worse yet, their policies are largely responsible for creating these tragedies and pandemics in the first place.

There are only two possible types of societies. Period. One in which the people fear the government and consequently live under tyranny, and one in which the government fears the people, who consequently may live in freedom. Yet, if I were to say “It Is time to make the government fear the people,” it would be taken out of context, and there is every chance the government would lash out at me, calling me a “terrorist.” Or worse.

Which proves my point.

It is time—indeed past time—to channel our inner Founders. Some truths are self-evident.
