MAYBE WE SHOULD STOP AND THINK...

     So, this weekend, with Democrat political operatives ending up in jail for filming homo porn in the Senate Building and Republican political operatives running amok and attacking statues; a couple of incidental statements from the Junta went unnoticed. 

    The first of these was discreetly announced late Friday afternoon following Congressional approval of an $886 billion-dollar package to expand the Security State and bail out the Ukrainian Neo-Nazi Regime. Zelensky returned to Kiev with a $120 billion slice of that pie for Christmas: his first order of business was to extend the Regime's persecution of Christians. While that story was also ignored by the Media Jackals, the really significant economic news was that homelessness in America had reached a record high. This matches other recent highs our society has set: highest levels of overdoses and suicides; highest incarceration rates; highest costs-of-living; highest infant mortality rates among developed countries; etc. 

   According to Housing Commissar Marcia Fudge, about 650,000 Americans are unhoused. The number of Americans living on the borderline of being there themselves is unknown, but clearly very high. If one does the calculations here, the wealth-transfer our Congress just approved would, if it were dedicated to housing alone, come out to $1.36 billion per person. That would be more than well enough to solve the problem, including housing, addiction and psychiatric treatment, and (where necessary) incarceration for all of them. Most likely though, that $1.36 billion figure is what all the beneficiaries of the Spending Bill stuffed into their own pockets. 

     If that wasn't troubling enough, some remarks that a Junta Spokesxhe had to say about the situation on the Korean Peninsula ought to give us some pause. The White House flatly stated that "the US would use the full range of US capabilities, including nuclear to defend South Korea."  

   That statement drew a predictable response from North Korea, but what's troubling here is the cavalier attitude that our politicians and pundits have been throwing around the idea of nuclear war. It wasn't that long ago that there was serious discussion about atomic warfare in Ukraine and more recently an official in the Israeli Government suggested deploying nuclear weapons against Hamas. 

   There have been a small minority of us on the Right who have been pointing out the dangers of this increasing rhetoric that only overwhelming force can give us security. This is a direct result of the whole Evo-Psych 'Alpha' philosophy which seems to have captured the imagination of many on the Right over the course of the last decade. It started with 'shock-jock' type Infotainment, increased to vulgar and violent Social media discourse and meme-wars. This decade we've seen Martial Law imposed over an influenza outbreak, race-riots, and Conservatives celebrating violent crime including murder, ethnic cleansing, and genocide. Today, we've reached a point where the ultimate proof of being an 'Alpha' is the willingness to turn entire countries into uninhabitable wastelands. 

   Before the Rent-a-Skeptic crowd starts rolling their eyes, consider that some of the so-called 'Elites' seem to think that such things are worth taking seriously. Has it ever occurred to anyone to ask why so many of these supranational organizations are headquartered in Switzerland? Do we suppose it's for the enchanting Alpine scenery, or maybe because Switzerland is a natural fortress with an extensive Civil Defense infrastructure?

   The Churchian Right---which seems to draw its theology from Hollywood productions like the Left Behind series don't seem too bothered by any of this rhetoric. They seem to be under the illusion that they'll all be 'raptured' up to Heaven, sitting on clouds and singing 'I got mine, sux to be you!' while the rest of us who weren't Alpha enough suffer through the Apocalypse are awaiting the Last Judgement and Eternal Damnation. 

   Now, the actual Bible---which few of them ever bother to read---does speak about a future Apocalypse in language that is cryptic to us but presumably will apparent to those living in times in which they will happen. Some believe that many of them alluded to persecutions of the early Christians, veiled in symbolism addressed to the people living then, and aren't in our futures at all. But interpretations like these don't sell well to a mass-market or fill Megachurches. Americans today seem to thrive on drama---the more extreme, the better. 

   This situation would be troubling enough if we didn't have the manufacturing of fear translating into public and foreign policy. St. John actually tells us that the spirit of fear is demonic, and those who fear are not made perfect in Divine Love. Paranoia, indifference to Humanity, and bloodlust are not Fruits of the Holy Spirit despite what these very based and Red-Pilled Megachurch leaders try and say.

   Maybe we should stop and think. The old saying What Would Jesus do? ought to be reflected upon once in awhile. Would Jesus push the Nuclear Button just to prove that He is an Alpha? Would He approve of lining the pockets of money-changers who arm thugs abroad to massacre innocent people? Would He approve of taking a realistic position on Abortion and Homo 'equality' because His approval ratings are going down? Would Jesus load refugees onto boxcars and drop them on streets in the dead of Winter to own the Libtards? Do we believe that Jesus would shrug His shoulders over people dying of overdoses and record numbers of stillbirths and tell them to lift themselves up by their bootstraps?

   As we're writing this, we are a week away from Christmas Eve and people are talking about dropping atomic bombs in Korea and cheering on the ethnic cleansing of the Holy Land! Stop and think about this. This is the Exceptionalist Evo-Psych nonsense we've been fed for the last 30 years drawing to its logical conclusion. Will we have a great national soul-searching at Christmas 2023? I have a feeling that we probably wont...

    Thus the best option for the rest of us to be aware and be prepared. 

ON BEING A COMMIE PINKO

      So, this week---to the surprise of no one other than to the GOP political establishment---President-in-Exile Trump was indicted for something by one of the various kangaroo courts convened for that purpose. Reaction (if one can call it that) from our side was predictable: "Gee! Our Courts are corrupt and politically motivated! Who knew?" And, "But the Democrats do it too!" Our culture turned into one big LARP during the Scamdemic, and our so-called political system became Reality TV a long time ago: why shouldn't our elections be Courtroom dramas too? Ratings would be probably go up if they started featuring all of the various indictments and impeachments between sensational murder trials. 

     To the shame of MSM pundits on both sides, the Chinese Media again gave us probably the most reasoned analysis of the situation. Chinese analysts noted that "The odd phenomenon also reflected strong public discontent with and distrust in US politics and the legal system in American society. Many people believe injustice and abuse of law are so prevalent that it can happen in presidential elections and the trial of a former president...Such a widespread perception resulted from the US' politicization of laws and instrumentalizing of laws for politics."

    "Li Haidong, a professor at the China Foreign Affairs University, told the Global Times on Friday that the cases will develop in accordance with the US' political agenda. Whether Trump had engaged in misconduct or not is no longer the core of the issue, as Trump has described the legal cases against him as a political witch-hunt to draw stronger support from voters. If he wins the election, that will give him a great advantage in court, and even if he is convicted, that would not affect the election much, according to Li."

    Furthermore:

    "Lü Xiang, a research fellow at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, who described the US' electoral democracy as entering an accelerated track of decadence."

    While Americans like looking down their noses at the Chinese Media (claiming that it's 'controlled', as if ours isn't); the question here is glaring. Exactly what did the editorial state that isn't the truth? Unlike the American Press, the Chinese aren't obligated to portray our Legal Establishment as though it was actually based on traditions of Anglo-Saxon Justice. If our own media was anything other than a commercial enterprise based on selling headlines and spouting propaganda, they'd ask the same questions and make the same observations. 

   Which leads to another point: certain people on various parts of the Internet are offended and outraged that sites like ours actually say positive things about China and North Korea sometimes. Critics on the Whacko Left have long since written us off as Right-Wing extremists, but since 2020 or so, there's been a growing chorus from the Right to the effect that we're promoting Communist interests---which of course, by their definition, is disagreeing with the Republican Establishment on more than one or two issues. 

      Generally we don't spend a lot of time here replying to critics, but being called out as Commie Pinko all the time does get tedious. There is a reason however why we should pay attention to what these various People's Republics are doing---and achieving. 

     At the end of WW2, cordial relationships between the US and USSR came to an end. Josef Stalin---ever the proponent of Realpolitik---came to oppose the US, but he maintained a cautious respect for us. Stalin saw what we were capable of doing in WW2 and how we rallied to fight Communist forces to a stalemate in Korea after what looked like certain defeat. Fighting WW3 with us wasn't even in Stalin's calculations except as a last resort---he prefered Cold War intrigues and schemes to weaken us from within. Khrushchev didn't learn anything from this: first his 'reforms' broke up international Communist solidarity; then he foolish challenged us to a Space Race and an Arms Race: the USSR lost both, space in the 1960s and arms in the 1980s. 

     What the American people have lost since the 1980s though has been the spirit that defeated Communism. We answered every challenge with a commitment to do better. When the USSR improved its post-WW2 infrastructure, we responded with an Interstate Highway System. When their propagandists spoke of inequality, we responded with integration and Civil Rights laws. When they suppressed revolts in East Germany, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia, we strengthened our laws to permit more liberty of speech and reformed allegations of police and prison brutality here. When the Soviets launched Sputnik, we expanded NASA and funded more science in schools. President Kennedy initiated things like Physical Fitness and Civics into the public schools to counter charges of public decadence. We were challenged to do better and we did it. 

    It didn't make people of our parents' and grandparents' a bunch of Commie sympathizers to point out where we were deficient; evidently it does today. But it doesn't change certain facts. If we look at the differences between Communist countries and the United States today, the marco-differences like civil liberties and freedoms are becoming less and less distinguishable. Observe the persecution of Trump and similar ridiculous farces: can we really criticize China and North Korea for their treatment of political dissidents?

   Other differences like quality of life, we're actually falling behind. Face facts. Their schools educate the young; ours don't. Their streets aren't packed with bums and criminals; ours are. Their rulers aren't destroying farmland and forcing synthetic and unsafe foods upon us; ours are doing that. They're building and upgrading infrastructure: ours has had no significant upgrades in 40 years. Currently, our poverty and unemployment, incarceration, and illiteracy rates are higher than most Communist countries. We have far higher rates of overdoses and suicides.

   A recent Pentagon study showed that 80% of 17-24 year-olds in the US are disqualified for military service because of drugs, obesity, criminal history, and mental illness. That's not counting the LGBTQ perverts they already accept but who are actually unfit. We've documented the statistics here many times. That same demographic has considerable issues with infertility and gender dysphoria. Only a little over half have grown up in a traditional family, and 2/3 of men under 30 are not even contemplating marriage. 

   The point is, that if we're going to criticize the Communists, we'd better start proving that we have something better to offer; and right now it's hard to argue that we have. 

 

    

    

PENTAGON AGAIN SUFFERS EMBARRASSING INCIDENT

      So, it appears that one of the Pentagon's brave xhes in uniform---a private named Travis King---has decided to relocate to North Korea. The story came as a real blow to the Military-Industrial Complex, which---desperate to appear relevant after repeated humiliations in Ukraine---stationed a nuclear submarine with our overseas colony strategic partner, South Korea. There have been other ongoing provocative actions in the area staged by the Junta recently too: although the North Koreans don't seem especially afraid, having test-fired a new ICBM just today.  Likewise, the North Koreans probably have seen the reports that the Pentagon really doesn't have enough missiles to wage a full-scale war, and can't get either the critical minerals or the engines necessary to build new ones. 

    As for the defection of Pvt. King, the whole story sounds very fishy. The jackals in the American Media claim that King had a history of violent behavior and was a frequent resident in South Korean jails. Now while it is true that violent criminal behavior is fairly routine among US troops stationed in these colonial outposts, the Media goes on to tell us that King was being deported back to the US for disciplinary action. In spite of this, King somehow escaped from his guards, somehow (in spite of being a Black man in Korea) evaded detection, and somehow managed to run across "the world's most heavily defended border." The Controlled Opposition press is spinning the story as though King is a hostage, in spite of eyewitnesses who claim that King was laughing and making obscene gestures at the guards as he ran across the Border. 

   Even more peculiar is that the North Korean Media---as of this writing---has issued no statement of any kind on the incident. KCNA did find space in their daily news to inform us that NK's Agricultural Minister inspected a radish farm, and that progress is being made on the construction of a new library in the village of Rason; alongside photos of the new ICBM and angry denunciations of American imperialism. For some reason too, their leaders have been sending flower-baskets to each other recently as well (I'm afraid that I don't understand all of their customs); but not a peep about Travis King.  

   To any thinking person outside American Media influence, it should be apparent that there was no collusion between King and the North Koreans. Otherwise, their headlines would be brimming with news---North Korea would never pass up a golden propaganda opportunity like that. More likely, King is playing Twenty Questions with those fun-loving folk in NK's Military Intelligence Department. So, in a sense, King is being detained, but we can hardly criticize the North Koreans. When military personnel from a hostile power runs screaming across one's border alone, it's rather natural to open an investigation. As is also typical of the American Media, King's family claim that he was a gentle giant and such behavior was atypical; apparently thinking nothing of the three weeks King recently spent in a South Korean jail "after he failed to pay a $4,000 fine on charges that included damaging public property. King did not cooperate when apprehended by officers last October after causing hundreds of dollars in damage to a police patrol car while shouting profanities about Koreans and the Korean army," according to a spokesman for the South Korean Government.

   This whole incident really speaks volumes about the quality of American military personnel more than anything else. President Reagan rebuilt the US Military into a premier fighting force only to see it decimated by his successors. Like our educational establishment, the Pentagon is wholly untouchable, utterly corrupt, and probably (again like American Academia) beyond any hope of internal reform. Bush Sr. made the Military the enforcement-arm of the Executive Branch; the Clinton Co-Presidency purged competent leaders in the name of 'diversity'; Bush Jr. lowered recruiting standards and outsourced military functions to corrupt private contractors; Obama accelerated all three bad tendencies; and we saw the treachery of the Pentagon fully displayed under Trump by continual subservience to the Deep State over the Commander-in-Chief. The Pentagon is fully in the hands of these creatures as surely as Big Media and Academia Incorporated are. 

   I don't know what to say. Again, for decades, people have been warning that the Military was heading in a wrong direction. Millions have literally served in the US Military. It didn't just start under Biden. But somehow once again, nobody knew until incidents like this happen. As one South Korean lawmaker put it, "North Korea is likely pleased to have "an opportunity to get the U.S. to lose its face" I'm afraid that self-respect is something that our Military lost a long time ago; and once again, we've done it to ourselves.

   

THE BIRTHRATE BOMB AND BUD LIGHT

    There was an interesting news story today from one of the Beltway's colonial outposts in East Asia. What passes for an actual government in South Korea today took some measures ostensibly to remedy that nation's desperately declining birthrates. South Korea's Ministry of Gender Equality and Family (if one can imagine a government agency with a name like that capable of doing anything positive for society) announced that it would begin providing a subsidy for 'reclusive youths aged 19-24' to reintegrate them into society. 

    The new policy will give people in this age group $500 per month, which supposedly will be spent on socializing. We'll see about that, but personally I'm a little skeptical.

    South Korea's birthrate is currently at 0.75 children per family: which is at the very bottom of the world. At this rate, the population of South Korea will drop 50% by the 22nd Century, while four times as many workers will be needed to support the aging population. 

   Academia Incorporated has come up with several---mostly bogus---explanations for the crisis in which South Korea currently finds itself. The reality is that very few countries have absorbed the degenerate cultural ethos of the Left to the degree with South Korea has. We've given them all of the blessings of American Exceptionalism. Things like:

   1. Widespread corruption throughout the upper levels of government and society which saps initiative and innovation;

  2. Vast wealth inequality that makes raising a family too expensive;

  3. Cutthroat competition and egoism that pushes relationships aside;

  4. Meaningless distraction throughout their media;

  5. Radical Feminism which has depreciated men and raised the average age of marriage to 29 for most women.

  6. Growing acceptance of the homo agenda and legalized abortion. 

  7. Declining fertility rates via regulatory capture of health agencies---

    This list could go on. The effects of our Cultural Imperialism are taking a toll over there. South Korea currently has even higher suicide rates than we have; a drug problem that has escalated in spite of severe laws; and among the highest rates of mental illness in Asia including depression and alcoholism. Obviously, this isn't going to be fixed with a $500 handout. 

   As further proof that the culture is the problem, consider that the (many) South Koreans who expatriate to other countries tend to be among the best of immigrant communities. Statistics among Asian immigrants in the US, for example, show that Koreans have low crime rates, are among the most economically productive, and have strong family structures with lower rates of divorce, abortion, and other problems that characterize the native-born here. Another interesting comparison is against the demographics of North Korea---which the jackals in the US Media portray as one of the grimmest societies on Earth.

  North Korea has a birthrate of 2.0 which, while not outstanding, is still sustainable and about twice what the non-immigrant birthrate in the US is. Divorce and abortion are both legal in North Korea, but apparently quite uncommon. For obvious reasons, getting a reliable assessment of how satisfied the population is with their quality of life there is impossible; but on the surface at least, they seem to be doing a bit better than the South. 

  While there is no actual law against homosexuality in North Korea, the perversion is not encouraged, and certainly not celebrated. The North Koreans, in fact, seem to place a high value on traditional families. Today there was a headline in their official news outlet announcing that this year's first triplets were born to a farm worker (who is apparently now something of a local hero) and his wife.

    Contrast that with the American Media's headlines which currently include:

1. Ganging up on a Liberal Feminist who finds the terms birthing parent and person with a uterus degrading to women. 

2. Chimping out over a Manosphere 'influencer' who defends substituting trans-men for real women.

3. Listening to the Controlled Opposition explain why Bruce Jenner is a genuine social role model while Dylan Mulvaney is not.

4. Listening to the Controlled Opposition trying to pretend that a $5 billion loss for a corporation valued at $300 billion is some great victory in the culture war.

Et cetera, et cetera...

     It's also noteworthy that here in Exceptional America we're holding serious national debates over whether children should be gender-reassigned and whether drag performers should lead children's story-hours. Meanwhile, in the country that Rationalwiki describes as: "the most undemocratic and totalitarian state in existence, even worse than Saudi Arabia and only contested by ISIS at its peak...with possibly the world's worst human rights record," says this about the triplets' birth:

   "Immediately after being confirmed as a pregnant woman with triplets, the mother was admitted to the Pyongyang Maternity Center and received medical assistance from medical staff while receiving various nutritious foods and supplements. Thanks to the efforts of doctors and nurses here, the mother delivered her triplets (all sons) smoothly...The medical group warmly welcomed the triplets and their parents as they left the Pyongyang maternity center in good health, receiving gifts of kindness, including gold rings." 

   Earlier this year, we noted that another of South Korea's neighbors, China, had experienced a population decline. Instead of subsidizing Incels, the Chinese Government started off with an interesting project. 

    "A number of vocational colleges in China are offering students an extended Spring Break while encouraging them to experience nature and pursue love — a move that has been interpreted by some on Chinese social media as a bid to boost the country’s falling birth rate...

  "Nine colleges affiliated with the Fan Mei Education Group announced this year’s extended break from April 1 to 7, with the theme of enjoying flowers and falling in love, in a March 23rd press release."

  Meanwhile, here in the Prozac Nation, our schools and universities employ rigid speech codes and other forms of persecution against anyone showing interest in the opposite sex; while fanatically pushing a pro-homo agenda. Once again, Postmodern Neoliberal democracies are made to look like complete fools and utter failures by Communist regimes. We've come to the point where our own Radical Feminists and foreign Marxists make more sense than contemporary ideology on so-called 'gender identity.' 

  In the typical Manichean black-white either-or way that Americans approach any issue, I certainly don't want to come across as pro-Communist or pro-Feminist; but at certain point one has to admit that they are at least making an effort to deal with problems. When we've reached a point when Anna Kasparian is defending the dignity of women with more determination than all of the milquetoast Right combined; and North Korean and Chinese Commissars are coming up with better social policy than the democratic West---at this point it's time to admit that we have gone radically off-course. 

 There's nothing positive about authoritarian Party rule or gender politics---but that's the whole point. We can't even sink to the level of Marxist Feminists and do it right. Ask yourselves which political faction in the US even addresses---let alone actually having a plan for--- the demographic vise that we've put our young people into. The Whacko Left Wing thinks that lower birth rates, more abortions, fewer traditional families, and more gender dysphoria are good things. The Knee-Jerk Right wants to expel immigrants and have everyone working 80 hours a week for a bare minimum of housing and food---that somehow is supposed to increase the population. 

 All of these attempts from the contemporary Right to paint the Chinese and North Koreans as enemies of America and scapegoating immigrants are just a form of whitewashing the truth. These Communist States aren't getting better, we however, are getting worse; and our problems are entirely of our own making. We surrendered our schools and media to the Radical Left; we surrendered our economic base to globalists, we surrendered our families to 'the village' and now we're reaping what we've sown.

FAITH, PSYCHOSIS, AND ALIENATION

    I apologize for the long hiatus between posts. The incessant shadowbanning hasn't completely eliminated our audience yet, but sometimes it helps to step back from the sheer cesspool of insanity that our postmodern dystopia has sunk into. I used to live in a city that went from an average city teetering on the brink to full-blown progressivism and I can testify from experience that continual contact with human depravity can affect even the strongest minds.

    I recall once during my church-camp days, the aged priest used to give morning lectures before we went out. One day he had four jars: two half-full of crystal clear distilled water and the two other half-full of brackish swamp-water. He explained that jars were like the body and the waters like the soul. He showed that even a small amount of dirty water contaminated the clean, while no amount of the clean could purify the foul waters. He went on to explain that through Grace and Reason, God has given us the will to refuse contamination. "But" he explained, "Our reason is imperfect and our faith often weak. So the contamination occurs anyway. But God has given us means to purify ourselves." He then went on to show us how water can be purified which is, of course, camp-related stuff; but such was education in a day and age when spirituality was still considered important.

   The end of the last century and the beginning of this one has shown the defects of American Liberalism which has finally collapsed into a cross between Jacobin fanaticism and Bolshevist nihilism. But the last decade and a half is opening the defects of American Conservatism: which is rapidly degenerating into a sort of mix between ruthless Social Darwinism and neo-Fascism. Both of these sociopolitical tendencies have their roots in Narcissism and Egoism which, depending on the personal inclinations of their respective partisans, manifest themselves in their politics. 

  We often mistakenly refer to the Left as 'collectivists.' In reality, Western Left-Liberalism is deeply driven by Narcissism. As proof of this, just look at real Collectivist countries like North Korea. One doesn't see flash-mobs looting stores in Pyongyang and getting away with it because some group feels as though they were discriminated against; nor are North Korean men who 'identify' as women able to cancel entire media platforms and impose their lifestyles on the public schools. On the Left likes to imagine that Conservatives are religious bigots whose policies are based on whatever their religious leaders teach. Again, imagine a Neocon in a real Theocracy like Iran. Try explaining to the Ayatollahs how economic might makes right, that compassion is for weaklings, and that it is the Will of Allah that the less fortunate get whatever they deserve---and see how far that argument gets you. 

   Our 'official' attitudes towards two nations we've written of lately---namely Canada and Russia---illustrate this perfectly. The Tech Lords are censoring information from both countries: in Canada's case in submission to its requests and in Russia's case over its opposition. Nobody seems to worried that censorship is actually wrong in either case. In Canada, we've seen a government which not that long ago was supporting book-burnings and locking down churches violently suppress a peaceful protest. The suppression is still ongoing and we still don't know the number of dead. Dissidents have had their assets seized and basically been frozen out of Canadian society and there are very few legal means to help them. Canada has also restricted travel, de facto closed its borders to all but commerce and has muzzled the media. The Trudeau Regime has admitted to building internment camps and maintaining a secret police force which conducts both domestic espionage and carries out psychological warfare on the populace. This week, the Regime extended its gun-control policies to include long guns like rifles and shotguns; and there are also unconfirmed reports that so-called welfare agencies have been removing children from the homes of known dissidents.

   Yet, we don't hear a peep out of 'Compassionate Conservatives' over any of this. Despite the fact that an unstable tyrant has near absolute power over a country right on our very border and is committing wanton human rights violations along with humanitarian disasters is passed over in complete silence. After all, Corporate America has a lot of money tied up in Canada---and Conservatives don't want to rock the boat where profit margins are concerned. Besides, if the Canadian people are suffering, it's their own fault for being Canadian, according to Conservative logic. 

  Their attitude towards Canada may be hypocritical, but their stance against Russia is proof of their insanity---because the American Right is condemning Russia for doing what their own stated Conservative goals are. Conservatives say that we need to project power to fight Islamic Extremism: Russia sends an expeditionary force to Syria and wipes out ISIS and Al-Qaeda. Conservatives say we should oppose Soros-backed Color Revolutions and Russia has frustrated attempts to seize Belarus, Kazakhstan, Georgia, and Crimea. Conservatives say that we should secure our border to prevent proliferation of organized crime and drugs; Russia is doing that right now by suppressing one of the international hotbeds of these activities on its southwestern border. Conservatives say that we should support peoples who desire self-government; Russia has done so by recognizing the independent republics of Donetsk and Lughansk. It's hardly a coincidence either that Corporate America is far more invested in Canada than in Russia when accounting for the differing attitudes towards the two countries. 

  In light of this recent resurgence in Neoconservatism, we shouldn't lose sight of the larger picture, which is the fact that the Elites still fully intend to impose the Great Reset and it is a matter of complete indifference to them which tools they employ to implement it. Democrats and Republicans are equally expendable. Politicians are to these Elites what middle-management is to the Corporate bureaucracies they control. I believe that what we're seeing is the formulation of a 'Plan B.' If the Elites feel that establishing the Biden/Harris Junta in permanent power is too unstable or unsalvageable, they'll simply repeat what they did in 2000. They'll will have the RNC coronate a candidate acceptable to themselves who'll push their agenda forward under a new label---just like 'woke' corporations sell their baloney to the Left. 

    We have to beware right now of falling into this trap yet again. We had 'Red Waves' take over Congress in 1994 and 2010. What we got in return was NAFTA, GATT, the Assault-Weapons Ban, the Telecommunications Reform Act, the Omnibus Crime Bill, the Patriot Act, approving domestic espionage, the repeal of the anti-Propaganda Act; left-wing whackos appointed to the Supreme Court---court decisions which have legalized bribery in campaigns, extended the power of corporations to seize private property, institutionalized State power over healthcare, mandated homo 'equality', and upheld election theft---all punctuated by pointless military interventions on every continent. Just look at the likes of Ted Cruz, Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney, Lindsey Graham, Greg Abbott, Jeb Bush, Glenn Youngkin, Larry Elder, and Bruce Jenner: that is what they tell you is going to save us. Don't believe for one moment that the President-in-Exile is coming back, because it isn't going to happen. 

   We need to do instead is remember the venerable priest's words from my summer camp days. Guard your bodies, strengthen your minds, and grow in faith. The narcissism and egoism of our zeitgeist is completely contrary to the spirit of Americanism. As Harry Truman said of the the Communists who were planning a New World Order in his day, "Their agenda is godless. Faith is the foundation of our democracy: faith in oneself, faith in one's neighbor, faith in God." A foundation not constructed on faith---whatever it calls itself---is not a foundation for a free society. 

   

   

     

AN APPEAL TO HEAVEN

      The courageous Archbishop C.M. Vigano has spoken out again; urging us in America to hold fast to our faith in these dark times and providing an excellent commentary on the true political situation here. Although His Excellency directs this message to Roman Catholics, I would---in a pluralistic society Republic like ours---encourage those of all faiths to read the Archbishop's words and apply it to their own beliefs. As former President Truman once said in a Christmas Speech during the hellish winter of 1950 when the military situation was looking grim for the UN in the Korean War: "I urge all Americans of whatever Faith or Creed to turn to God in prayer that we may be victorious in this global crusade against Communism. Communism is godless. Faith is the Foundation of our Democracy. Faith in one's self, faith in one's neighbor, faith in God."

    I'm going to post the full text of Vigano's letter without commentary because---well----there's little that can be added to it. We'll be back soon with regular commentary.😇

   "Dear Brothers and Sisters,

    "As devout Christians and faithful citizens of the United States of America, you have intense and heartfelt concern for the fate of your beloved country while the final results of the Presidential election are still uncertain.

    "News of electoral fraud is multiplying, despite the shameful attempts of the mainstream media to censor the truth of the facts in order to give their candidate the advantage. There are states in which the number of votes is greater than the number of voters; others in which the mail-in vote seems to be exclusively in favor of Joe Biden; others in which the counting of ballots has been suspended for no reason or where sensational tampering has been discovered: always and only against President Donald J. Trump, always and only in favor of Biden.

   "In truth, for months now we have been witnessing a continuous trickle of staggered news, of manipulated or censored information, of crimes that have been silenced or covered up in the face of striking evidence and irrefutable testimony. We have seen the deep state organize itself, well in advance, to carry out the most colossal electoral fraud in history, in order to ensure the defeat of the man who has strenuously opposed the establishment of the New World Order that is wanted by the children of darkness. In this battle, you have not failed, as is your sacred duty, to make your own contribution by taking the side of the Good. Others, enslaved by vices or blinded by infernal hatred against Our Lord, have taken the side of Evil.

   "Do not think that the children of darkness act with honesty, and do not be scandalized if they operate with deception. Do you perhaps believe that Satan’s followers are honest, sincere, and loyal? The Lord has warned us against the Devil: “He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks in character, because he is a liar and the father of lies” (Jn 8:44).

   "In these hours, while the gates of Hell seem to prevail, allow me to address myself to you with an appeal, which I trust that you will respond to promptly and with generosity. I ask you to make an act of trust in God, an act of humility and filial devotion to The Lord of Armies. I ask that all of you pray the Holy Rosary, if possible in your families or with your dear ones, your friends, your brothers and sisters, your colleagues, your fellow soldiers. Pray with the abandonment of children who know how to have recourse to their Most Holy Mother to ask her to intercede before the throne of the Divine Majesty. Pray with a sincere soul, with a pure heart, in the certainty of being heard and answered. Ask her – she who is the Help of Christians, Auxilium Christianorum – to defeat the forces of the Enemy; ask her – she who is terrible as an army set in battle array (Song 6:10) – to grant the victory to the forces of Good and to inflict a humiliating defeat on the forces of Evil.

   "Have your children pray, using the holy words that you have taught them: those confident prayers will rise to God and will not remain unheard. Have the elderly and sick pray, so that they may offer their sufferings in union with the sufferings that Our Lord suffered on the Cross when he shed His Precious Blood for Our Redemption. Have young ladies and women pray, so that they turn to her who is the model of purity and motherhood. And you, men, must also pray: your courage, your honor and your boldness will be refreshed and strengthened. All of you, take up this spiritual weapon, before which Satan and his minions retreat furiously, because they fear the Most Holy Virgin, she who is Almighty by Grace, even more than Almighty God.*

* (Editor's note included: 'There is some confusion regarding the reference in the text to the devil fearing the Virgin Mary, in a sense, ‘more than Almighty God’. Please note that this refers to the fact that the devil while he must accept his being vanquished by the Almighty would be more terrorized by the prospect, prophesied by God Himself, of the demon’s head being crushed by the heel of Mary – the humblest of creatures.)

   "Do not allow yourselves to be discouraged by the deceptions of the Enemy, even more so in this terrible hour in which the impudence of lying and fraud dares to challenge Heaven. Our adversaries’ hours are numbered if you will pray, if we will all pray with Faith and with the true ardor of Charity. May the Lord grant that one single devout and faithful voice rise from your homes, your churches, and your streets! This voice will not remain unheard, because it will be the voice of a people that cries out, in the moment when the storm rages most fiercely, “Save us, Lord, we are perishing!” (Mt 8:25).

   "The days that await us are a precious occasion for all of you, and for those who unite themselves spiritually to you from every part of the world. You have the honor and privilege of being able to participate in the victory of this spiritual battle, to wield the powerful weapon of the Holy Rosary as our fathers did at Lepanto to repel the enemy armies.

   "Pray with the certainty of Our Lord’s promise: “Ask and it shall be given unto you, seek and you shall find, knock and the door shall be opened unto you” (Lk 11:9). The King of Kings, from whom you ask the salvation of your Nation, will reward your Faith. Your testimony, remember this, will touch the heart of Our Lord, multiplying the heavenly Graces which are, more than ever, indispensable in order to achieve victory.

  "May my appeal, which I address to you and to all people who recognize the Lordship of God, find you to be generous apostles and courageous witnesses of the spiritual rebirth of your beloved country, and with it the entire world. Non praevalebunt.

God bless and protect the United States of America!

One Nation under God!"

TRUMP PROCLAIMS DAY OF PRAYER FOR MEMORIAL DAY

    On Friday, President Trump issued a proclamation, the likes of which haven't been seen in the U.S. now for far too long. Here's the relevant portion of it, although the full text of his remarks are on the White House website. 

    President Trump has brought back a law which became effective during the Truman Administration. As far as I know to the contrary, it hasn't been observed since Truman left office. I can't remember any president during my teen years onward who's ordered a National Day of Prayer on Memorial Day.

     It's truly astounding that since the Trump Administration took office, Americans are learning that it's OK to pray again. One of the monumental achievements of this Administration has been overhauling the DOJ Guidelines so that Christians are no longer persecuted by anti-religious bigots and their pals in Big Government. It's been noticeable that the tear-down-the-crosses gangs have been remarkably silent during the last few Christmas and Easter Seasons. 

     On a related note, the President will be in Japan during Memorial Day on a state visit. I hope that he reminds Akihito and his camarilla of just how many thousands of American men are specifically being honored on Memorial Day for giving their lives in a conflict which the honorable fathers of the Japanese leadership were responsible for starting. It would be nice if the Japs formally apologized for a few war crimes committed against the United States too.

    I have a feeling though that the President is sending a more subtle message to the Imperial Cabinet simply by appearing in Tokyo during the holiday. The old militarism has been making a comeback in Japan and Trump needs to remind them that such things won't be tolerated. His rapprochement with North Korea and the new paradigm in US-South Korean relations dealt a severe blow to Japanese designs on the Peninsula. 

    But it's not only Japan who was thwarted, but the interests of the supposedly 'peace-loving' American Liberals were likewise frustrated. Remember where Obama's 'Pivot to Asia' got us only three years ago.  And it's also not widely known; but had Hillary been elected, the DNC had already decided to arm the B-2 bombers which Obama had recently deployed to Korea with atomic bombs. Although I disagree with much of Trump's policy in the Middle East, he has been far less aggressive than his immediate predecessors. The Trump Administration has been a relatively peaceful one. 

     So overall we're making Memorial Day Weekend great again. If you live on the West Coast or some other enclave infested with uptight Liberals have a good barbecue and a moment of prayer this weekend.  

MEDIA POLECATS CAUGHT IN PRICE-FIXING SCAM

   As we all know, Attorney-General Jeff Sessions recently was obliged to resign from political circumstances. However, the revamped and reformed Justice Department passed into the capable hands of his lieutenant, Matthew Whitaker, who promptly set the Steamroller in motion again. Six MSM conglomerates were the first to get flattened under the new leadership. 

    Sinclair Broadcast Group, Raycom, Tribune Media Corp, Meredith, Griffin Communications, and Dreamcatcher Broadcasting were taken before the Federal Court this week and forced to cough up an undisclosed---but reportedly quite substantial---fine for flagrant violations of Anti-Trust laws. They also agreed to a whopping seven-year probationary period, under which all six companies will be monitored closely by various Federal agencies. These six corporations own a combined total of 257 television stations in 177 federally-recognized market jurisdictions; and have a combined annual revenue of $5,850,000,000. 

    To summarize what these worthies did in layman's terms: they were sharing information regarding each others' available advertising time and the rates with which they charged various advertisers. With this type of insider information, the Media companies could charge advertisers inflated rates---knowing that their competitors couldn't offer lower ones. In other words, they were fixing prices and then price-gouging their commercial customers. Once again, the Media demonstrates what their 'Elite' character really looks like behind the mask. 

    For obvious reasons, the Corporate Media declined to put this story in the headlines. Instead, CNN filed a frivolous lawsuit against the White House after Sarah Sanders took the long-overdue step of suspending CNN's repugnant and ill-behaved correspondent, Jim Acosta. 

   Acosta is best remembered for making a complete fool of himself and, by extension, disgracing all Americans at the US-North Korea Summit. The worst thing he ever did, though, was making a disgraceful scene in front of Kazakhstan's President, Nursultan Nazarbayev. Trump had been relaying United Nations concerns over press transparency in Kazakhstan; but no doubt Acosta's rampage did little to assure Nazarbayev of the benefits of a free press. 

    And actually politicians like Nazarbayev have a point. A free press without any credibility is really no improvement over a state-controlled press. The whole purpose of having a free press is to give the public a trustworthy source of information so that we, as citizens of a republic, can evaluate political decisions and policies and act upon them. A corrupt and irresponsible press in a democracy is not only worthless, but potentially a danger to society. 

     Fortunately, technology like the Internet has come to the aid of the 1st Amendment, We can expose the Corporate Media through other channels. We do need a professional mass media, but ours is going to have to reform itself before what little is left of its credibility slips through their fingers altogether. 

MEDIA SILENT AS TRUMP TRIUMPHS AT UN SUMMITS

     President Trump visited the United Nations today, and had an extremely profitable day for the American people. The first stop was hosting a summit with representatives of 31 nations to work out global strategies for suppressing the international narcotics trade. 

     The Summit was in response to the President's Global Call to Action on the World Drug Problem, issued last month. Although the proposal was then ridiculed by the Corporate Media and Hollywood nitwits, Trump's initiative was well received by the world leaders in attendance. The ultimate goal is to set up a law enforcement infrastructure on an international scale similar to the model that Jeff Sessions has employed so successfully here on a domestic level. 

     "The call is simple," the President said, "Reduce drug demand, cut off the supply of illicit drugs, expand treatment, and strengthen international cooperation. If we work together, we can save the lives of countless people in all corners of the world. And when I say 'countless', I mean millions of people."

    Trump was roundly applauded, and the President of Colombia was among the first to announce his country's participation in the program.

     Trump wasn't finished though. After a working lunch with Mike Pompeo and John Bolton; the President met in a long conference with South Korean President Moon. The result of which was the signing of the US-Korea Free Trade Agreement. The new agreement---really monumental in its implications---was aimed at reducing the US/ROK trade deficit. South Korea agreed to lift trade restrictions on American automobiles, a variety of agricultural products, and medical supplies. Automobile exports to South Korea alone will double next year. "We are now going to be sending products to Korea for a change." Trump quipped. The President also announced that another meeting with North Korea would be announced soon. 

     To all of this positive news, the first question asked by an American reporter at the Joint Press Conference was: "Do you have any response to allegations made against Brett Kavanaugh?" Sigh. What can you say? The American Media is an international embarrassment. 

     Tomorrow, Trump is scheduled to meet with Egyptian President Sisi. Trade and anti-terrorism are preliminary items on the agenda. 

      
      

THE Q-BALL ROLLS ON

    In the recesses of various parts of the Internet, blogs, and talk-radio, a specter is stalking the land. He's only known by his code name 'Q'; much like Secret Agents K-7, G-8, and X-9 in vintage pulp fiction. However, Q claims to be a real person. Here's what Wikipedia says:

   "QAnon, also referred to as Q is the originator of a conspiracy theory popularized by {some} supporters of US President Donald Trump. The theory involves a series of cryptic internet postings by a person claiming to have access to classified information involving the Trump Administration and its opponents in the United States. QAnon's posting campaign is also referred to as 'The Storm' detailing a supposed secret counter-coup by the Trump Administration against the Deep State." 

     Q gets his name from a claim that he made of possessing a top-level 'Q Clearance' given to individuals in the US Department of Energy. 'The Storm' refers to a remark that Trump made during a conference with US military leaders calling it "the calm before the storm." It isn't known what Trump actually meant; but there were tensions between us and both North Korea and Iran about that time. Q's claim is that many grammatical errors and unclear statements made by Trump via Twitter are codes given out to operatives. 

     Q Anon began appearing on that bastion of truth and transparency, 4Chan, last October. Q has given us a simple flowchart to follow how the chain of events will unfold:

      And his messages are very clear as to what will happen next:

       This is an old trick used by con-men all throughout history. Simply say a lot of nonsense that nobody understands and a few will assume that all of that esoteric jargon is a mark of superior intelligence. Let's look at a few facts here:

    1. Trump doesn't need a coup to dismantle the Deep State; he's dismantling it quite well simply by enforcing existing laws.

     2. The military is still full of Obama toadies and would likely not support a Trump-led coup.

      3. If Trump were plotting a coup, he wouldn't broadcast on 4Chan on the assumption that the Deep Statists wouldn't read about it and be prepared.

     4. The US Energy Department is currently headed by a RINO closely affiliated with the Bush Family---a very unlikely ally to purge the Deep State.

      5. Most of all: we have no idea whatsoever who this Q is: man, woman, group of people---and, apparently despite leaking all this Classified Information, the US Government with all its resources isn't bothering to look for him. The same government who caught Anthony Wiener flirting with a paramour on a secure server supposedly can't find a rogue Energy Department employee leaking coded messages.

      Is that enough to write Q Anon off as a hoax? Let's focus on draining the swamp without any of this cloak-and-dagger stuff; but right out in the open like a free people should.
