We don’t need an election. We need a revolution.

Don’t believe me? What will it take, then? We have a Constitution and Bill of Rights; but they are NOT active.

Eighty-six House Republicans vote for warrantless surveillance of Americans. The Speaker of the House — a “conservative” Republican — cast the tie-breaking vote, upholding the repeal of the American Constitution with regard to search and seizure.

In essence, they’ve decided the Bill of Rights does not apply to modern electronic technology. Put another way: They have deleted the parts of the Bill of Rights they do not like.

America fought the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War II and everything else in order to uphold the very thing all Democrats and most Republicans have now torn down. In principle and in practice, it’s going to be a very ugly place for your children and grandchildren.

Hopefully you can rest well, knowing you did everything you could to speak out and prevent it all.

The U.S. regime sends billions and billions to Iran. It treats Iran like an ally.

Iran repeatedly threatens to wipe Israel off the face of the map. We know they mean it, because Iran sponsors most of the world’s terrorism, most of which is waged against Israel.

The U.S. regime says Israel is an ally, and that the U.S. is committed to the safety and preservation of Israel. When Israel is attacked with the worst atrocities against Jews since Hitler’s Nazi Germany, the U.S. tells Israel not to DARE think about fighting back — other than in theory, but never in practice. The vice president of the U.S. regime even hints at American military force against Israel if Israel refuses to stop bombing Palestinian terrorists, the ones committing the atrocities against Jews the U.S. regime claims it’s committed to stopping.

Saying someone’s your friend, refusing to let that friend defend itself, and then arming its enemies. And then asking: “What’s wrong? You’re my friend!” I guess this is what’s meant by “gaslighting.”

“Oh, Israel is our friend. Israel can and must defend itself. We will assist it every step of the way. Only Israel cannot fight back — only when we say so. And we’re going to keep sending billions to Iran. We’ll glibly predict that Iran will attack Israel, and that Israel cannot do much about it. We will do our part by telling Iran, ‘Now, Iran, don’t you attack Israel.’ So what’s the problem? Of course we’re pro-Israel.”

This is YOUR government, America. YOUR government is treating Israel like this. If it treats Israel like this, just think what it will do to its own citizens. Just look at what it’s already doing. The entire Democratic Congress and dozens of Republicans (including the “conservative” House Speaker) just voted to let the government spy on its citizens without a warrant. I guess that’s what they mean by “Uniparty.”

I consider the Biden regime and all in the Uniparty connected to it to be lawless, amoral, unconstitutional and illegitimate. But they’re doing it all in YOUR name, America. By refusing to fight back or even speak out, you’re sanctioning your own destruction, as well as the destruction of your children and grandchildren.

How much are you going to take? How much can Israel be expected to take? Or is there absolutely no limit to the self-sacrificial abuse good people will take at the hands of the real, greatest evil in the world which — today — resides in Washington DC?

O.J. Simpson: He got away with murder. Before it was cool.

The Biden regime official spokesperson offered sympathy for O.J. Simpson and his family, with no mention of his victims. No surprise. Sociopaths and criminals who get away with their crimes stick together.

What else is there to say? The O.J. Simpson trial was the early warning signal of what happens when you put ideological narratives and state religion above truth and facts.

The rest of the culture, including 100 percent of our government, shows us the rest today.

We got what we asked for; or what we’ve chosen to permit. It’s as simple as that.

In AD 2000 Paul Craig Roberts and Lawrence M. Stratton published “The Tyranny of Good Intentions” about How Prosecutors and Law Enforcement Are Trampling the Constitution in the Name of Justice .

“What are we to do if those chasing devils decide to chase after us.” Sir Thomas More

The Tyranny of Good Intentions, Paul Craig Roberts and Lawrence M. Stratton renew their valiant campaign to reclaim that which is rightly ours–liberty protected by the rule of law. They show how crusading legislators and unfair prosecutors are remaking American law into a weapon wielded by the government and how the erosion of the legal principles we hold dear–such as habeas corpus and the prohibition against self-incrimination–is destroying the presumption of innocence. A new introduction and new chapters cover recent marquee cases and make this provocative book essential reading for anyone who cringes at the thought of unbridled state power and sees our civil liberties slowly slipping away in the name of the War on Drugs, the War on Crime, and the War on Terror.

Whoopee, Trump is 1 percent ahead of Biden!! I know a lot of people consider this GOOD news. I find it PITIFUL. I would prefer not to live in a country where even 1 percent would support the tyrannical, demented perverted puppet Biden over ANYONE. I find it all impossible to comprehend. The world has truly gone mad.

People yearn for a big event. For something larger than life. For something that unites them. The solar eclipse provided that for many today. In this case it was benign, and harmless. But in other cases — not so much. COVID provided the same escape hatch for “something larger than myself.” COVID was a calamity. Not the virus itself (mostly just a nasty flu), but the ensuing economic and psychological destruction. It will take years to recover, and most may never fully recover, especially children. We let the media and government blow a hole in young people’s lives, all so mass numbers of neurotic adults could feel a sense of toxic meaning.

Millions signed on for the B.S. because the media told them it was real, important, and just as the media told them it was. It led to disaster. Today’s eclipse mania was not destructive. But it sprang from the same faulty premise as COVID. “I need something to make me feel important, like I belong.” Isn’t your LIFE enough? Isn’t that important enough? If not, you’re vulnerable to manipulation and treachery. Be careful. And don’t you dare impose your lack of fulfillment on others who already know how to enjoy and find meaning in life. Don’t make your existential neuroses a healthy person’s calamity.

Michael J. Hurd.

Neither state governments nor the federal government have “rights.” The sole legitimate purpose of a government is to uphold rights.

Governments exist to serve US. Not by stealing from fellow citizens to give us their wealth or property. Governments serve us by upholding our individual rights to life, property and the pursuit of happiness. That’s it. But that’s everything. If government betrays us, especially on the scale we have witnessed in the last few years alone — well, it’s unforgivable.

At present, the federal government does virtually nothing but violate rights. Its very legitimacy is questioned, if not invalidated, due to the Biden-Obama regime. Most state governments violate rights, but some more than others; some state governments — primarily in red states — uphold some rights, some of the time.

We have to stop looking to the government to fix itself. Once a government crosses over the line and starts violating rights, it’s like a spouse who has repeatedly cheated on you, or a business partner who has swindled you. You can’t come back from it.

These people in government are worse than criminals. Criminals and mobsters face at least the threat of accountability. Career government officials face ZERO accountability. Yet they wield unlimited power over their fellow man in unprecedented ways. Most tyrants of history have never enjoyed the unchallenged power of today’s American tyrants who exercise their tyranny in the name of “freedom” and “democracy.”

The federal government is not going to correct itself; certainly not under the Biden-Obama regime, nor anything equivalent, such as a Gavin Newsom, Michelle Obama or Kamala Harris regime. They tell us as much, often in their words and always in their actions. It’s time to start believing them.

You can hold out hope that Trump will somehow overcome all the “lawfare,” election fraud and whatever else they have in store for us (perhaps the declaration of a “climate emergency” on Nov. 1 which will cancel the election); that Trump will somehow make the federal government into something other than what it has become. To me, that seems highly doubtful, but I get that most otherwise well meaning patriots don’t want to hear it. So we’ll wait out the year and the next couple of years and see who’s right.

It is the height of naiveté to believe that the seditious, anti-American left has any desire for, or intention of, peaceful coexistence with traditional America’s patriotic conservatives or Judeo-Christian culture. They despise those of us who reside in the so-called “flyover” part of the country…the “deplorables,” “Bitter Clingers,” “Deniers,” “American Nationalists,” etc. Despite all their empty rhetoric about tolerance, equality, diversity, and social justice, make no mistake about it: the “radical left’s” ultimate goal is the demise of all and any who oppose their totalitarian worldview.

Understanding your adversaries’ overall intentions, strategy, and desired outcome should determine your resistance level. Ask yourself some simple questions: Where do you fit in their worldview? How would traditional, patriotic, religious Americans fare in a supposed “utopian socialist society?” What part would our children and grandchildren play in an “Orwellian” culture that had absolute control over their lives? Would they be free to express and practice their beliefs? What are the chances that their values and religious convictions would be tolerated? How much latitude would there be for peaceful coexistence? For insight concerning these questions, consider: Historically speaking, how well have Christians and Jews fared in radical Islamic or Communist totalitarian cultures?

Now that the media has become the purveyors of progressive propaganda, powerful leftist politicians are proposing to end the Second Amendment, and our “freedom of speech” legislated “hate speech,” what recourse would be available to us? History is replete with tragic examples.

The idea that you can compromise, negotiate, or coexist with those bent on your destruction is philosophical nonsense, the philosophy of naiveté. Only someone drunk with idealism could suggest such foolishness. Take, for example, the disastrous results of the deluded, liberal Israeli leaders Shimon Peres, Itzhak Rabin, Ariel Sharon, Ehud Barak, and Ehud Olmert, who advocated “land for peace” with their surrounding Palestinian enemies. Shortly after withdrawing from Gaza in 2005, Hamas began showering rockets on Israeli civilians.

On October 7, 2023, the absurdity of “land for peace” culminated in a surprise attack by 3,000 Hamas terrorists against Israel from the Gaza Strip, slaughtering 1200 innocent Israeli men, women, and children.

Respite gained by foolish compromise and passivity in the face of evil is a vain attempt to circumvent reality. Refusal to confront and refute an increasingly demonic, depraved culture comes with a steep price. Silence motivates and encourages evil and ends in subjugation.

There is no such thing as mutual concession between light and darkness. God never has nor will compromise or tolerate evil…nor should we. When we fail to respond to the words and actions of those intent on our destruction, we allow them to define us. Paralyzing fear is the most potent tool of tyrants and devils. Lies and slander must be fearlessly refuted with truth; indifference toward sin and apathy to evil, whether personal or cultural, always culminate in ruin and regret. Ignorance is bliss until reality comes knocking.

“Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity…in the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society.” Antonio Gramsci (20th-century Italian Marxist philosopher)

If freedom-loving patriotic Americans do not soon rise up and confront the radical left’s progressive agenda, the radical left’s progressive agenda will put an end to America as we know it.

It is hard to believe how any clear-thinking person could interpret the current radical leftist policies other than an attempt to subvert and destroy our constitutional republic and replace it with a Marxist system of government. The agenda-driven mainstream media, the unofficial propaganda arm of the Democratic party, is, in my opinion, responsible for the public’s ignorance of the pending peril. You must first control what and how they think to indoctrinate people to believe what you want them to believe. To control how they think, you must secure the means to restrict their access to any information that runs counter to your ideology while simultaneously utilizing a well-coordinated propaganda campaign to stigmatize and silence your critics and demonize and marginalize those who oppose your repressive ideology. The time is late, and the stakes are high.

“Freedom is the sure possession of those alone who have the courage to defend it.”   Pericles

“Those who fail to see their enemies for who they are will soon become extinct.”

“Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them.”
“And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee, saith the LORD, to deliver thee.” (Jer. 1:17 & 19)

Pray the Lord will continue to bless and protect America so we may remain free until His return.

Face facts, sentimentalists. America is about as just, fair and reasonable a place as Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, Communist China or Castro’s Cuba. It’s getting worse by the day. We not only sense it; we literally see it.

Sooner or later, you will have to face the fact that the American republic succumbed. It became all the things its founders hoped it would not. We blew it. A LOT of people blew it, over a period of generations. We are the generation who gets to see it all play out.

What went wrong? America’s founders had the greatest idea yet. Government is never the solution, they knew; it’s always the problem. But, they reasoned, you can’t exist without a government. Otherwise, you’ll be run by competing gangs of mobsters (kind of what we have now). It’s better to have a standing military and local police — held in strict Constitutional check — than no government at all.

So their premise was a good one: Severely limiting the government’s reach and powers. And use a Bill of Rights to restrain it.

For a long time, it worked amazingly well. Nobody else has ever come close. America pulled it off for a very long time.

Until recent years, there were no open or concentrated attacks on the Bill of Rights. Yes, the Bill of Rights were sometimes violated; this was a problem from the beginning. Slavery was a glaring issue from day one. But violations were the exception, not the rule. Slavery was eventually outlawed.

Today, violations of our Constitution and Bill of Rights — on the local level as much as the federal level, in many locations — are daily, even hourly. Vax mandates, government-run medicine, government-run indoctrination of children with obviously psychotic ideas, fossil fuel mandates, skyrocketing property taxes to pay for “schools”, deliberate inflation of the currency to keep the elites in unearned wealth, the poor dependent on the dole and all at the expense of the middle class. Need I go on? It has never been so bad, from a freedom point-of-view; not in the USA. NEVER.

Limited government was the right idea. But it didn’t work out in practice, at least not forever. Think about the kind of people who enter government, in any place or time. For the most part, they are the least morally and mentally qualified of the population. Otherwise, why would they work in government? This was always a problem. When you look at Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Pete Buttigieg, the long-time problem has only become more obvious. These goons are caricatures. But state and local governments are just as full of these types. They ruin lives every time they touch something. They do absolutely no good for anyone, and they end up hampering, distorting and doing a lot of harm, economically and otherwise.

Put simply: You can’t get good people into government because good people want to do other things. And the best, most productive and most worthwhile things are virtually always done OUTSIDE of government. So we leave the government to the corrupt who will not be accountable for their actions, because in government, you largely don’t have to be accountable. (And don’t talk to me about elections — not anymore!)

Ayn Rand picked up on this problem in her famous novel, Atlas Shrugged. Early on in the book, you see her fictional heroes of business — Hank Rearden, Dagny Taggart — minimizing or ignoring the overreaching hand of government. They correctly saw the bureaucrats as a bunch of idiots who couldn’t hold a staff position in a railroad, much less run a railroad; but they missed the toxic hold the government could eventually have on all of society. They learned the hard way, and eventually had to go on strike to fight it all and bring the government down.

That’s exactly what happened in America (well, not the strike — not yet, at least). Our republic was brought down not by an ideological revolution of the sort we saw in China, Russia and Cuba. Those countries were impoverished lands of anti-liberty in the first place; to the lost souls inhabiting those countries, any revolution seemed like a potentially good one.

America had far less excuse. We lost our freedom through negligence and ignorance. And some brainwashing, because our cultural and intellectual elites are — frankly, psychopaths. If you cannot see that now, then I cannot help you.

Too many of us told ourselves, “Politics doesn’t matter to me.” Then, one day — as many of us are increasingly finding — we find politics knocking on our door. I’m not just talking about the FBI going after conservatives and other brazenly anti-Constitutional overreaches, which is really happening. I’m talking about the economy. Under our failure to watch, the economy became political too. Now it’s a plaything for puppets like the Biden crime family — and it doesn’t matter who succeeds them — to play havoc with our rights, our lives, our prosperity and our basic well-being. We used to arrest and imprison people like the Biden crime family. Now, we arrest and imprison Trump — for speaking truth to the lies.

America was the greatest thing to date. But from a liberty point-of-view, it ultimately did not work out. Mankind has to find a better solution. Either we have to find an alternative to limited government; or we have to find a way to staff the limited government with people who will be removed from power and/or imprisoned the moment they go outside the boundaries.

I don’t have an obvious answer. But I know human beings of the future will suffer the same outcome we’re witnessing now, unless they get it right next time.
