Is it even possible for us as a nation to recognize the fact that we have lost our way,

misplaced our compasses, have gotten “sucked into” a dark hole, that seems to have

no way out?  We seem to be blinded by domestic propaganda, fake, misleading news,

and all too visible people with self-serving agendas sponsored by oligarchs with too

much money and evil intents.  We are being inundated with negativity.

How do “common sense” people who are trying to raise their families, teach their

children, and work to provide, cope with the above negativity?  It is not possible to

ignore the sleazy situations and people who promote them and still exist.  We must

participate even when it is repugnant. We also must realize that there is power in

numbers.  We hold the ultimate “purse strings” of “our” government.  We are not

a socialized people yet.  We the people, the normal, average people are in charge.

Our government serves us.  And it (they) have forgotten that fact.

This is not a fuzzy, feel- good time in our history.  This is a time for push back!

Historically in politics, the weak become serfs, pawns, and subjects, not citizens.

When there is a takeover by those activists whose only attribute is a big, loud mouth,

it is time for plain speaking, intelligent persons with the good of the entire country

in mind to offer their services.  We do not need a government composed of political

freeloaders who have made a career out of getting rich from lobbyists. Our very

future is at stake.

What needs to be fixed?

EXECUTIVE BRANCH – no decrees, no legislating. President is not a king.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE – non-political, fair, just, color blind.

MEDICINE – non-political, non-business, R&D for benefit of all citizens.

EDUCATION – eliminate the NEA and their destructive policies. Promote truth in learning.

LOBBYING – reconstruct the whole system. Not a “get rich” for politicians.

ELECTIONS – voter ID, limited mail-in, no harvesting, transparent, expedited, legal and fair.

MEDIA – unbiased reporting, no political propaganda. Opposing views welcome, equal time.

CAMPAIGNING – Limited funding, qualifications met, must debate, level playing field.

SECURITY – closed borders, fair and well-funded and trained: military, police, FBI,

FINANCE – intent to balance budget, IRS fidelity, fair tax system, no illegal printed money.

RELIGION – no restrictions to legitimate worship. No political hounding.

All of the above depend on the right person in charge to carry them out.  We must vote

for qualifications, intelligence, know-how, ability and not beholden to outside finance.

Our very future is at stake.

Read: “The Coddling of the American Mind” by Lukianoff and Haidt

Not speaking of geography, but society.  The America we once knew is now under attack.There are many facets to this barrage, but the real “leadership” of all of them is hidden from us. We know that there is an evil entity funding the disease being inflicted upon us and on our whole country, but we don’t know who to root out. Money man or fascist.

To begin with, this is no longer an issue between white and black, a racial divide.  There is division being fomented between every conceivable facet of our once free country.  This may have started with race, but now has escalated to education at all levels, law enforcement at all levels, women’s so-called rights, gender, reproduction, pronouns, censorship, immigration by force, religion, double standards, fake news, frivolous lawsuits, murder of the innocent of any age, political corruption at every level, and vicious personal attacks of all kinds. Division.

No matter how stable our society has been, the above will cause instability, and an attitude which vacillates between anger and a searching for reasons and solutions. All of us want to know who is behind all of this madness, so we can deal with the perpetrator(s).  All of the attacks and riots are represented by a lack of intelligence combined with stupidity so blatant as to be laughable in a serious situation.  If only our present situation were laughable instead of serious, life would be easier to live and also more predictable. Since we are unfortunately living in the “Mad Hatter’s Tea Party,” for the moment we just have to deal with the daily nonsense.

But to return to my premise, our primary task is to find the evil perpetrator(s) of this madness.The preservation of our country and the lives of our children and grandchildren depend on this.We know that the evil aim of the dividers is Socialism morphing into Communism. We also know that neither has worked historically, ever, anywhere.  They always end with one sleazy dictator having all of the marbles. (Who usually loses his/her marbles). And we know in addition that the secondary aim is world domination, in which everyone is in the same kettle of rotten soup.  Leaders are politically corrupt, citizens are economically poor and downtrodden, only able to dream of lost freedom.  This is the inevitable result of what we are being pushed, squeezed into, and the pawns who are being used to implement the ubiquitous evils will unknowingly be in the same soup no matter what was promised to them earlier.

Additional divides that we are experiencing?  Racially: white against black, or just different shades against each other.  Women against men.  Women against themselves – to reproduce or not.  Giving birth or offspring murder.  Democrat (no longer for labor, only leftist);  Republican – (no longer just upper-crust or wealthy), but conservative.  Guns or not – affects everyone with a need for defense.  Women becoming men (sort of), men becoming women (sort of). Teacher’s teaching the forbidden (porn), without parental knowledge; advising kids about medical procedures secretly.  Parents barred from meetings or even jailed when they request pertinent information about their children.  Open borders mandated by a clueless executive branch of our government, causing chaos that will only become evident within the next generation or two.  Corrupt attorneys, judges, DOJ, FBI, DHS, etc. acronyms ad nauseum.  And the list goes on, also ad nauseum.  Our feet are stuck in a kind of flypaper, so we move slowly and carefully, lest we offend some unknown rule that just appeared.   And then we can be penalized by censuring, losing a job, or being tossed into a corrupt justice system without proper recourse (kangaroo court).

Wake up! We are already in Socialism, just waiting for the next stage (enslavement).  Those BLMs and ANTIFAs, etc., who are being self-serving and violent and destructive also had better wake up. You leftists are in the same boat with the conservatives. The unlimited funding of evil is also for your own ultimate enslavement.  You are also in the Great Divide with the rest of us, you are just helping things to slide down faster by furthering/hastening  impending evil.

Our last resort is prayer to a supreme being, our Creator, our God, our Savior.  Those who have turned away are part of the most important divide from the reality of life, and death. Life is short!  What’s next? Fouling your own nest in this life will certainly not help you in the next!  There are rules that show us how to live together in peace in a free and benevolent society:  the Bible, our Constitution, and our Bill of Rights.  If you read them you can realize that our aim in life is kindness, lawfulness, peace and love.  The Satan that you presently follow is for the opposite, representing the worst divide in our lives.  Your choice could eliminate any divide anywhere.  Let us all choose wisely…!

Having just spent time at the Reagan Library viewing the Auschwitz Exhibit, I can see an initial comparison to what began innocuously in Germany in the 1930s.  Hitler was a product of his times.  He made promises based on the wants and needs of the people. Even before he centered on the Jews as the source of all of their problems, he began to control the thinking of all of the German people.  He assumed control of the military and law enforcement, got rid of guns and weapons from all but his enforcement troops.  Next came total control of the means of communication, schools and the young.  Religion was forbidden and private organizations of any kind were eliminated.  He became the supreme dictator and had life and death control over everyone. Then he guided the German people into ultimate destruction.  If this process seems simple and easy, though corrupt, it is.  Far too easy.

The above actually happened.  We have a blueprint and a timeline. Unfortunately, we traditionally do not learn from history.  This is why the “left” wants to eliminate the past and rewrite it for younger generations. Evil usually happens slowly so it is unnoticed. Support comes from those liberals that base their thinking (or lack of) on idealism and wishful thinking. Present “hooks” like wind farms, electric cars, trucks and planes, climate change, everything “green,” eating bugs, etc., are distractions and smoke screens to prevent conservatives and thinkers from being heard. And when the ubiquitous media, news, and social media only present the flawed thinking of the left, we have the beginnings of Socialism morphing into Communism morphing into totalitarianism and the dictatorship that certainly follows. And then what?

The one-party system of evil, (unity), the One World of everyone marching in lockstep to the same propaganda looms ahead. If you actually wonder how the left will begin, look at the political career of President Trump. He has been blocked in every possible way, both legally and illegally with almost no opposition from his own party in his conservative policies, of which millions of Americans approve.  Like him or not, what is being done to him as an ex-president is shoddy, below the belt political evil (funded by a madman), masquerading as a justice system. As is the harassment of our Supreme Court justices. Now compare this scenario to Germany in the 1930s.  If you see any similarities, then wake up! Satan is here!   Let us eliminate our divisions.  Think of the coming elections…!  Future generations!  Choose wisely…!

Please read: “The Courage to be Free.”  (Florida’s blueprint for America’s revival) by Ron DeSantis, 2023.

The phrase “it never rains in California” is being disproved this year.  We have had more than enough rain to ward off drought seasons for years to come.  Our plants should be very happy for their extended growing season.  Until, in their unusual abundance, they dry out and become a fire hazard in the fall.  Of course this is predictable and cyclical, like climate change.

The down side with the abundance of rain is that most of it drains into the ocean from whence it came.  Why?  Because our reservoirs are now inadequate for the needs of the present population.  Why? Because the governing bodies don’t look far enough ahead when they plan. Why? Because building new reservoirs is too complicated and expensive.  And so on… Consequently, we cyclically must deal with a very dangerous and very expensive fire season.

Why can’t we adequately prepare for the coming fire season?  How?  Residential areas can clear out their surrounding tinder dry brush so the fire has no fuel.  The same goes for mountain residential areas.  The problem stems from the vast areas of mountainous or unreachable areas.  How do we neutralize them?  We have had many decades to figure this out without success.  Due to the enormous expense and the potential loss of property and even lives, it should be a priority of some sort.  But we still slog along year after year.  The “go to” is dumping large quantities of ocean “salt” water onto the out-of-control fires by helicopter. Although this makes for great television theater, it is not very efficient. There actually have been viable solutions presented in the past e.g. chemical sprays, ways of removing oxygen as fuel from the fire itself, miscellaneous fire retardants, but none has surfaced as “the one.”We can only hope that someone comes forth this year with an idea that really works.

While I am thinking of hope, it occurs to me that it has been in short supply for too many years. Politics has been hopeless for a decade.  Law enforcement from the top down has been without hope for our protection and security for at least as long. Wacko woke has weft us without ways to wive our wives in peace wifout woefully wistening to the wonky wisdom of wicked media worms.  What do we believe? How do we form an intelligent opinion? If the electoral process is as corrupt as it seems to be, what is the next step?

Our only hope and escape from cruel reality (besides reading a good book) used to be comedy. Censorship, practically everywhere, has virtually eliminated comedy. Is anything funny anymore?  The elements that used to be the basis for comedy are now forbidden… (by whom)? Even Will Smith “bitch slapping” Chris Rock last year at the Oscars wasn’t funny, though it will be in the upcoming Chris Rock comedy special.  Comedy’s demise is really unfortunate due to the abundance of outrageous people and situations in our society at this point in time.

Men can become women, women can become men (due to desire mixed with drugs and surgery). And wearing the appropriate clothing.  Communists in our government at all levels can now come out of the closet and even shout their hate for our flag, our democratic republic, and our society, especially conservative anything.  This used to be dark humor. The hysterically funny part of this is the amount of people who believe this and take it seriously.  Can they listen to themselves?  Totally unglued teachers trying to teach kids in elementary schools about sex that most adults haven’t experienced or care about or even want to know about.

And the worst of all of this is that our Marx brothers government and “Night Court” justice system and “Keystone Cops” DOJ, FBI, etc., not to mention our bumbling Congress have only one agenda:  Get Trump!  This is, and has been, the cry of the left, liberal, Democrat “brood of vipers” instead of taking care of the business of the citizens of our country.  “Citizens” of our country!  We are very close to being invaded now by near seven million illegals.  A staggering amount of undocumented, unvaccinated, uninvited, people of all natures and ambitions, even evil intents. And they are where?  Anywhere and everywhere.  No one really knows. When the head is corrupt, the body will die.  Unless someone stops the bleeding.

Even the movie “Idiocracy” had some measure of hope at the end.  The intent of censorship is to kill hope. The intent of totalitarian control is to kill hope and opposition.  So I ask once again,Are you awake?  Do you care?  Does your butt have to actually be on fire for you to get up from it and voice your opinion?  Our options as citizens are becoming severely limited.  We are in an “Age of Stupidity.” Can we rise above it?  All of us as individuals must at some time answer these questions.  Our motivation and support:  the Constitution and the Bill of Rights; our Flag and our National Anthem. May we stop the agenda of separatism, and may “God bless America.”

We are all being infected with a “dumb-down” woke virus which has appeared in every grade in our school system, especially in colleges and universities. The hallmark is unity, which means that this is the only way to think. No other thoughts are allowed. Censorship must be total and socialistic. This anti-Americanism is supposed to begin a take-over of our whole society. Based on ignorance, atheism, serfdom, slavery, total control and lawlessness, all of this is supposedly justified by the racism of “white supremacy.”

Every normal, thinking person in the USA knows that this agenda is a self-serving weed that is an ill-thought-out, overly funded, evil screed that only exists because of the funding that makes possible intimidation and blackmail as its “modus operandi.”

Common sense should be able to trump stupidity.  Fair and legal elections should be able to give every normal, thinking American and every organization and autonomous company a way to re-set our laws and Constitution to be right side up again.

What stands in the way of this happening? The Democrat party and its evil practices which have existed for far too long. It has a dysfunctional hold on all of the media and all of Big Tech. It fosters and supports the censorship and stupidity of the woke movement, which is the only reason that we have a virtual  one-party government for the moment.

The present Democrat party is in fact socialistic, wanting complete control over all citizens and also our energy and infrastructure, the education of our young, our food supply, and what we see and think. Everything has been done to weaken our laws and law enforcement, the security at all of our borders, the protection of our families by parents, the autonomy of each state of our union, and our military. Additionally, everything is being set up and motivated to cause World War III which would be catastrophic to our whole way of life.

Here is a question that plagues me constantly:  Why does anyone, liberal, far-left, Progressive, etc., buy into the Woke, Marxist, Socialist, Communist agenda? This agenda ultimately harms everyone. Are these people so controlled by propaganda that they can no longer think clearly?  Are they so drugged out by the constant spewing of lies and hate and racism by CNN, MSNBC, etc., and Big Tech, NYT, WP, and local TV bytes of fake news, that they can no longer form their own opinions because they might differ from the newest party line?  Is it the water or the food supply?  I am at a loss to figure why seemingly intelligent friends, neighbors or even relatives can be so far off in their thinking that they can no longer discuss an alternative opinion.  Let’s look at a few bones of contention:

CORRUPTION IN GOVERNMENT

Biden’s career has been suspect for many years. It is no different now that he is president. That something is now very wrong with him is obvious to everyone but his press secretary. He should not be making far-reaching decisions, let alone fomenting an all-out war with Russia by assisting Ukraine. Russia has 4000 plus nukes. Quite enough to turn us into rubble.

SECURITY

Any thinking person and any parent knows that we need police that are free to do their jobs while still being safe themselves. Let’s quit hobbling them.  Same with our military.  We need to put real leaders in charge. They need to be able to have vital input about what they need for our domestic protection and what is actually necessary in our foreign interests.  The FBI, CIA, NSA, DOJ, etc.  All of these acronyms need to be fair and just, and we need them to have the oversight of Congress.  We have had enough of their domestic Gestapo tactics. And our Southern border must be completely secure.  No more massive influx of questionable people.   IRS, toast!

VOTING

Needs to be fair and legal.  We must have voter I.D.  We have IDs on our driver’s licenses, credit cards, banking, etc.  Let us be honest in our voting.  And let’s remove all of the opportunities for the Democrat party to cheat.  No mail-in ballots unless absolutely necessary and with proper I.D. Absolutely no ballot harvesting. And ballot counting must have oversight and accountability. The results must be verifiable.

ENVIRONMENT

Everyone is for a clean and safe environment.  This is common sense.  Climate “alarmism” is not common sense.  This is extremism at its worst.  We have had climate change for roughly five million years.  With any luck we will have it for five million more. We are not yet able to control our climate (our biosphere).  We may never be able to.  But we must learn to live with it sensibly.  Don’t build structures on fault lines or on crumbly cliffs or halfway up the side of a volcano.

CENSORSHIP

No.  Not ever.  Free speech is our right and shall not be infringed.  Period…!

EDUCATION

Eliminate the NEA teacher’s union.  It is unnecessary, dictatorial and not a team player. Parents should be involved in the instruction of their children, not shut out.  College professors who are teaching the evils of Marxism, Socialism (Wokeism), Communism and the latest racist agenda as vital facts should be summarily dismissed regardless of tenure. And the same for K through 12 teachers.  Indoctrination of evil propaganda is not acceptable.

SOLUTIONS

Find the truth.  Read books by intelligent and respectable authors.  Watch podcasts and TV from reputable journalists and reporters.  Form opinions based on information from many sources.  Do your homework.  Do not participate in programs containing fabrications and lies. Fight fascism fiercely and fairly, but also firmly. Be smart enough to uncover the fake wherever it occurs.  Let us reset ourselves and our country.  For ourselves, our children and our God.

Happy New Year to all book readers, blog readers, thinkers, writers and doers of whatever…! 2023 is the year of the pre-pre-election preparation for the looming (even now) election of 2024.  This year is the preparation for the big propaganda machinery to start grinding out propaganda in advertising and mendacity in the media. This begins the push, the long slow crescendo toward November of 2024. Information spinning and spewing will begin to change to  mis-information and then to serious propaganda, then to attack ads, and then to the nastiness of lies, smears and the unimaginable boredom of the debate cycles. Somewhere buried in all of this the average voter will strain to find a modicum of truth on which to be able to intelligently cast votes.  A dauntless task.  So…

What now…?

We have a broken, liberal government so wrapped up in unrealistic policies that it is chasing its own tail.  So blinded by the enormous stupidity of far left policies that it has lost all pretense of reason. But it proceeds regardless with a broken compass to blackmail and intimidate not only our own country, but the rest of the world. This is not leadership. When we are being forced into Socialism (pre-Communism) by a liberal, left-wing government and controlled by “one-size-fits-all” policies, what alternatives do we have? Let us check out a few areas that are vital to our everyday existence.

MEDICINE

When all of the highest medical research facilities, e.g. CDC, WHO, etc. are under the control of one person, we have socialized medicine.  We have the decisions of one person controlling the welfare of most of the people in the world.  Obviously, this is not an ideal situation.  If this person is unscrupulous, the organizations will ultimately fail due to narrow-minded thinking. And when the virtual dictator makes it impossible for other experts in the field to offer vital input without being discredited and/or having their careers ruined, the dictator is medically useless.  This is what happens when there is no oversight or checks and balances in any organization.  In this case, many people die. Out of control also in this regard with inadequate oversight are: DOJ, FBI, CIA, IRS, Dept. of Education, Pentagon, and State and Local governments.

CONTENTIOUS ISSUES

More issues that affect us daily that are being forced upon us without adequate research, just left-wing emotional intimidation are:  Climate change, electric everything, solar & wind power, no energy independence, open borders, etc, etc. The impact of more than 5 million people of unknown circumstance having crossed our borders since 2021 will take many years to be revealed.  Due to lack of medical care, lack of jobs & income, homes, and citizenship there are many problems to solve that our legal process for admitting foreigners takes care of – legally, including citizenship.  Most of the above are ill-thought-out, inadequately researched, and many years from being practically introduced into our daily lives. Some are very dangerous.

FENCES

Why do we have fences?  Everyone in the world with property has fences.  We protect our property from encroachment, damage and thievery by people who prey on others for their own existence. Our own defined property is subject to taxes by our governing bodies. We either pay these or lose our property.  Robbers and thieves don’t pay taxes. When our property is damaged or seized we call law enforcement for support.  That is, unless these police are told by a liberal government to “stand down.”  In which case we have incipient anarchy or chaos. This is exactly what happened in cities like Portland, Seattle and Chicago.  Would you feel as liberal if any of the above was your property?  Does insurance really help you to rebuild the work of a lifetime?

WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?

All of the above issues and many more are based upon our election process (which has been corrupted for a long time by unscrupulous politicians and those who control those politicians). Our newest issue in this regard is choosing people for positions or jobs or anything just by their color or gender or lack of gender or anything but their meeting the qualifications for that position or job.  This, like many of the above issues is insane.  It is the movie “Idiocracy” becoming part of the way our country is managed.  This should and can be fixed.

And all of this, as bad as it is, is made even worse by the media; everything we hear and view. All of our announcers, journalists, advertisers, sports and entertainment personalities are censored.  All are controlled to become purveyors of the propaganda that we, the citizens daily inhale and absorb.  And for our children, indoctrination occurs in movies, television, social media, amusement parks, and most importantly, in our schools. Don’t dare to protest or criticize.

Even considering this giant handicap in communication, we still have only one ultimate choice:  Clean up and legitimize our election process from the local and state to the national level and institute transparent oversight at every stage of the process.  This is the only hope we have to save our country.  If you believe that the prevalent corruption of the far left is the work of the devil, then prayer is the only answer.  There is work to do in this Happy New Year to wake up friends and neighbors to investigate intellectually the above issues realistically and practically and to vote accordingly.

Regardless, we still sing: “God Bless America.”

If you haven’t already read the following books, please read and learn about present corruption in government.  Fascinating and informative.

“Justice Corrupted” How the left weaponized our legal system. By Ted Cruz,  Regnery, 2022.

“The Real Anthony Fauci” Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health.  By Robert F. Kennedy Jr., CHD Books, 2021.

Is it even possible to anticipate a measure of kindness during this Christmas season?  After roughly fourteen years of Democrat nastiness and Liberal violence, it is “looked-down-upon ”to pray, but maybe we can just hope for a change of heart in the left-leaning, Social-Democrat, Marxist, One-World (Communist-espousing) über-censor class of society-destroyers.  At least may we enjoy one season of anticipated joy and love.

 I am beginning to believe that we have been “hacked” by the devil, whose tentacles are the embodiments of evil.  Think: woke, porn, climate change, BLM, Antifa, diseased government offices, corrupt justice system, teacher’s unions, etc.

College campuses seem to be the worst breeding grounds for propaganda, spreading lies and Socialist filth to the fertile minds held captive in and out of the classroom.  Those who are studying  to be teachers are now being filled with the misinformation of woke and critical race theory which only compound the present problems by spreading them as truth to the young and impressionable. These are in addition being reinforced and even mandated by the NEA, which has turned into a corrupt teacher’s union.  The campuses are so close-minded that they can hear of no other thinking than the current party line of Socialist, Marxist, Woke, and CRT. And, anyone who is invited to present an alternative opinion is harassed and shouted down even before they can speak.  Censorship rules…!   Obviously this is no longer education. It is indoctrination of party propaganda.  So, this is why I am beginning to believe that we have been hacked by the devil.  Everything “on line” is tolerated by the left, except the truth or conservative thinking. The devil wants no accountability.

With the above being stated, is it reasonable to expect any kindness from the leftist, Socialist,Democrat media, including radio, TV, sports, news, woke schools, or any leftist populace? I think not.  But…!

Even with all of the above said, I truly believe that most people are good-hearted to begin with. Most of us celebrate Christmas with the joy and love that is inherent in the season.  Most of us are not infected with the evil that is being spread daily.  I also believe that goodness and love will finally triumph over the present trend of evil. This is why we still go to a church or synagogue or mosque and pray to our God to help us to combat evil.  We believe!

Remembering the birth of Jesus, the Son of God, has lasted for thousands of years against unimaginable evil and the celebration is still with us, even though it is under attack. So, our remembrance is actually two-fold:  we celebrate the occasion and we keep the remembrance of the occasion alive.  This is the way in which we make possible the change of hearts that we hope and pray for every year.  The message we need to send and sing to everyone during this season is: “Put a little love in your heart.”  And, put it also in your “ring tones” and doorbells as a reminder to celebrate love every day of the year.

“MERRY CHRISTMAS” for the year of our love, 2022…!
