“War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.” Major-General Smedley Butler (USMC), 1933

“I wouldn’t go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights.” Major-General Smedley Butler (USMC), 1933

If it was not such a serious and traitorous statement, it would be the most hilarious joke that any of us have heard in decades.

Yesterday nearly 500 “inactive” – which means they are collecting extravagant pensions, and getting payoffs from the corporation-funded dole – damned President Trump, using absurd and sophomoric claims that deliberately ignore the fact that their wars nearly ruined the republic, and that they are now publicly testifying to being members of a treasonous coup against the president. Needless to say, the greatest shame to the once-loyal-to-America U.S. Marine Corps, the anti-Smedley-Butler general “Mad-Traitor” Mattis, signed the letter. Per the Washington Post, which confusingly mixes the text of the new letter with that of an earlier letter from a smaller group of 50 traitors:

Nearly 500 retired senior military officers, as well as former Cabinet secretaries, service chiefs and other officials, have signed an open letter in support of former vice president Joe Biden, the Democratic presidential nominee, saying that he has “the character, principles, wisdom and leadership necessary to address a world on fire. … We are former public servants who have devoted our careers, and in many cases risked our lives, for the United States. … “We are generals, admirals, senior noncommissioned officers, ambassadors and senior civilian national security leaders. We are Republicans and Democrats, and Independents. We love our country… Unfortunately, we also fear for it.”

In other words, Trump bad, vote for the unique and very best ticket the Democrats can offer in 2020, one which can be summarized in bumper-sticker lingo as either “Vote for the Criminal Corpse and the Senator Sleep-Your-Way-to-The-Top” or “Put addled Joe’s brain in charge of nuclear weapons”

These nearly 500 shitbirds also dragged out a former Vietnam prisoner to take up the treasonous crusade that his now thankfully deceased and rotting-in-hell fellow prisoner, John McCain, pursued against a legitimately elected president. In a weepy statement that is disgraceful for any adult, let alone a general officer, this fellow writes:

“I spent 36 years in the United States Air Force, almost seven of those as a prisoner of war in Vietnam…. Since my return, I’ve been a Republican, but quietly. I fervently believe that military officers should not be involved in presidential politics, even when retired. … But this year is different. Donald Trump’s assault on the rule of law that makes a democracy possible has been so egregious I’ve decided to speak out. . . . We need to vote for Joe Biden this year. I’m going to vote for him. I hope you do, too.”

In other words, this aged fool is saying: “No U.S. military intervention in politics unless it is needed to protect war-making and the full access of retired U.S. flag officers to the financial bonanza always found on the boardroom table.”

The Post also sews into its article bits from an earlier letter written by another group of traitors: “Trump has demonstrated he is not equal to the enormous responsibilities of his office; he cannot rise to meet challenges large or small. Thanks to his disdainful attitude and his failures, our allies no longer trust or respect us, and our enemies no longer fear us.”

The current letter concludes that only Biden “has the character, principles, wisdom, and leadership necessary to address a world on fire.” This piece of half-assed, grade-school thinking really says that the criminal-corpse Biden, who supported all of the unnecessary wars started by Clinton, Bush the Younger, and Obama, and is on-the-take, through his son, from Russian and Ukrainian oligarchs, and the Chinese government, is the man they – the retired generals and federal officials – can rely on to restart the wars Trump is extinguishing, as well as to start new ones.

American parents, and all Americans really, should recognize that the election of Biden means only one thing; namely, that they ought to invest in companies that make prosthetic devices. Those stocks will quickly boom if corpse-Biden and his easy-virtue partner are elected, because they certainly will start multiple interventionist and losing wars. Americans also should stop, think, and conclude that the proper response to the 550 gold-digging, pro-Biden generals and diplomats (some “friends” of his ticket partner?) who, in two letters, question Trump’s competence, must go along the following lines:

–Generals and Diplomat traitors say to Americans: Trump is incompetent and non-presidential; Biden is god-like and Harris is easy.

–Everyday Americans answer: Look, we know that you think we are stupid and deplorable. But you are wrong. We have watched closely and have seen Trump start to put out the “world on fire” deliberately ignited over Biden’s political career — and with his full support — to destroy the republic, enrich the governing elite and its generals and diplomats, and enslave the citizenry

Listen, you pea-brains: Trump achieved what looks like the start Middle East peace; ended or is ending multiple unnecessary wars; put the brakes on war with North Korea and visited Chairman Kim; made the Europeans pay for much more of their own defense; rebuilt a military worn out by the Bush-and-Obama wars that neither they or their generals intended to win; all but stopped the steady flow of dead, maimed, or mentally damaged military personnel from hellhole overseas wars; built the key piece of national security, the border wall; freed the republic from the thrall of Gulf tyrants by securing energy independence; ferociously attacked the quack media, MS-13, child traffickers, and the Chinese Virus; confronted Biden’s paymasters in Communist China on economic issues and their biological attack on the republic; and told those always eager engines of war – the Democratic Party, Rino Republicans, the UN, the Neoconservatives, and the Council on Foreign Relations—that they can stick their war plans and globalist dreams up their asses.

Nope, you scum-dog generals and diplomats, we will vote for Trump, the chance for peace, and a constitutionally re-secured republic. Our advice for all of you, simply and clearly, is to go fuck yourselves until it is time for your hanging.

I have written here before, I think, that I was stunned by President Trump’s success in bringing the U.S. economy from a stale, lukewarm status to a simmer in 90 days and to a pretty full boil in less than a year. After 16 years of the stagnant economies of the Younger Bush and Obama, Trump’s success was, of course, welcome but, even more, the speed of the economic growth strongly suggested – to me it mightily screamed – that Bush and Obama had kept their foot on the economy-brake, while piling on federal regulations, to maintain barely more than mediocre economic growth and job-creation for nearly two decades.

How long was this kind of thing going on? Were Bush, Obama, and their advisers just stupid in the economic sense? Or were they what they appeared to be; namely walking, war-loving malignancies who hated working-class Americans – in Obama’s case, especially white working-class folks and their God and guns – and sought broad national government-control over the citizenry, giving not a damn about their prosperity. In other words, were Bush and Obama economic simpletons or were they sadists who took joy in slowly destroying middle-class Americans, their families, and their livelihoods, especially by exporting their manufacturing jobs? My hunch was that they were the latter. I needed another example of sudden Trump-made change to know if my hunch was right.

And now we have that proof. After a half-century of failed U.S. diplomacy, Israeli and Arab intransigence, and unnecessary and always lost U.S. interventionist wars, Trump and his lieutenants negotiated the conclusion of two Middle East peace agreements between Israel and the UAE, and Israel and Bahrain, a deal between Christian Serbia and Muslim Kosovo that brought another recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, and, this week, an Israel-Morocco agreement on air travel. A long period of non-leaking talks was followed by the announcement of four completed deals in rapid succession; really, in little more than a month.

This hardly means lasting Israel-Muslim peace and brotherhood; indeed, the media say Israel may have bombed a target in Jordan in the last weekend. It does, however, seem to show that some movement toward stabilization in the Middle East is possible without U.S. military interventionism. Even better, this movement seems to have been achieved in a way that leaves the two deal-making nations – and not the United States, its taxpayers, and its troops — holding the bag if one or the other backs out of the deal. The republic’s part was helping to negotiate the deals’ details, thereafter it is up to the agreeing parties to make the deals work, apparently without any guarantee that the U.S. military will ride to the rescue if discord occurs. (NB: Being determined, like grim death, to avoid sophomoric optimism, I know that there have been times when some of an agreement’s clauses are kept secret because they detail political/military commitments, but I have no way of knowing if any exist in these cases. Frankly, I would prefer not be be involved at all with Arabs and Israelis, except for trade, but its hard to argue against success — unless there are unseen stings attached for the United States.)

Anyway, Trump in the above-noted economic and foreign-policy aspects of his America-first policy has wrecked a longstanding, now demonstrably false,  popular belief that American presidents always do their best for the republic’s citizens and their families. Bush and Cheney, and Obama and Biden for 16 years had mediocre economies, not because they could not be spurred to grow, but because the two administrations settled for – or perhaps wanted? – minimal growth. Trump turned that situation around in six months, and is now doing the same thing after the unnecessary lock-downs, facial masks, and over-hyped Chinese Virus.

Just as important, the Bush and Obama administrations produced much talk about working for Israel-Muslim agreements, but produced nothing. Instead, both increased the U.S. arming of Israel and started multiple interventionist wars – none of which they and their generals intended to win — that made such deals impossible. Trump and his administration have started zero interventionist wars in the Middle East (or anywhere else), but they have, at least temporarily, lessened regional tensions and appear to have put the onus for keeping and expanding the start of peace on the two local partners in each agreement.

Trump and his administration clearly deserve full marks for the economic and diplomatic accomplishments above, and even more for overcoming business community and bipartisan political opposition to end an enormous portion of the half-century old illegal immigration disaster. The speed with which these accomplishments were achieved strongly suggests that between Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump, no president has had the slightest interest in resolving the problems they routinely misidentify to the electorate as “intractable”, including, to name a few, the social-security trust-fund, politicized/on-the-take U.S. general officers, senior civil servants who terrorize the citizenry in the name of law enforcement or tax collection, campaign-season race baiting, and a federal judiciary that is systematically killing the rule of law and equality before that law.

I suppose it is wise to recall that Joe Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and many dozens of other congressional Democrats and Rino Republicans have assisted both Bushes, Clinton, and Obama to keep America’s most dire problems  festering. If these — to quote Pelosi — “enemies of the state” cannot be summarily hung, they must not be voted for.

It also worth thinking about the astonishing accomplishments of the current president — add to the above, going to North Korea, cutting taxes, confronting and imposing tariffs on China, cutting drug prices, and attacking child-trafficking networks — and wondering if our sainted governing elite has mistaken “appearing and sounding presidential” with actually being presidential in a way connects with and serves the needs of everyday Americans and makes peace for the republic more likely than not.

What’s that old saw about not being able to tell a book by its cover?

Let the danger never be so great, there is a possibility of safety whilst men have life, hands, arms, and courage to use them; but the people must surely perish, who tamely suffer themselves to be oppress’d, either by the injustice, cruelty, and malice of an ill magistrate, or by those who prevail upon the vices and infirmities of a weak prince. Algernon Sidney, 1683

Speaker Pelosi: The words of your recent scurrilous and deceitful attack on your hairdresser for doing as you asked, I suppose, are just another of the ways of acting and speaking you learned from your parents in their “good Catholic home”, along with such lessons as murdering the unborn, evading/ignoring the law, lying, theft, killing, stealing from your neighbors, and worshiping multiple false gods. I can only thank the one true God that your parents are no longer around to infect others with the same “faith” you repeatedly have told us that they taught you.

In its own right, your personal beauty-salon disgrace is small potatoes. But it is emblematic of the Democratic Party’s deep and longstanding hatred for working and middlle-class Americans of all races and faiths. We felt the heat of that hatred long before 2016, but since that date it has been directed by your party at a full blast against working people and the president they elected to rid the republic from the likes of you, Schumer, as well the Clinton and Obama crime families and their federal civil service and U.S. miltary abettors

No matter how this November’s election turns out, Madam Speaker, you, your party, and its rank-and-file will be the losers. At that date, those of us you and they hate will remember that:

–Your governors deliberately murdered tens of thousands of the elderly in nursing homes during the China Virus.

–Your lackeys in the national government heath bureaucracy killed many tens of thousands more Americans by blocking the use of hydroxychloroquine.

–Your same lackeys padded Chinese Virus death tolls to hide the fact that only 6-percent of the total deaths were caused by Wuhan flu.

–Your mayors, governors, donors, and caucus have not only allowed, but assisted and funded the Soros/Democrat-terrorist groups BLM and ANTIFA to burn U.S. cities, destroy small businesses, and kill Americans.

–Your party used Fauci’s fantasy/1984-science and the Democratic media to keep attacking the economy, to destroy small businesses, and to ruthlessly terrorize and mentally harm young children with 24/7 virus-hype and by denying them a decent, in-person education.

–You, Biden, Cuomo, the New York Times, and many other of your party’s sub-human leaders – including the consummate dope, Joe Biden — have threatened President Trump and to burn down America if Trump is re-elected. These threatening words could only come people who have no idea how much loyal Americans ferociously hate being threatened, particularly by transparently corrupt Democratic politicians and their media goons.

–Your presidential candidate has said he will lock down the county whenever Fauci-science and that berserker Bill Gates say to do so; promised to terminate U.S. energy independence and re-subjugate us to the Gulf Arabs; promised to reinvigorate the wars Trump is winding down; and blithely promised to impoverish all working Americans by enormous increases in taxation and renewed regulatory insanity.

–Your party and its addled, buffoonish presidential candidate have promised to end equality before the law for whites by legislating legal superiority for deranged members of minorities, Marxists, sexual deviants, felons, and illegal aliens.

–Your party, for nearly a century, has been the lethal enemy of Americans; their Constitution and Bill of Rights; their ability to be free and self-reliant; their children, in all aspects of their lives; and their Union, their history and its symbols, their patriotism, and their Christian faith.

The 2016 election, Madam Speaker, signed your party’s death warrant. Win or lose in 2016, the time has come for your party – and its Republican allies – to pay the piper for their crimes. If Trump wins, your end will we come via conviction under longstanding and easily understood constitutional and legal processes, and then execution.

If, Madam Speaker, you and your party make good on your pledge and plot to steal the election, your demise also will come to you constitutionally through the application of the 2^nd Amendment. In the latter event, justice can be delivered swiftly without a great deal of time-consuming judicial folderol.

Let me close, Madam Speaker, with a bit of instruction authored by a genuine and patriotic Christian, one whom you and your sainted family surely have never heard of, and would never understand in any event. Writing in 1750, the great Massachusetts Protestant divine, Reverend Jonathan Mayhew, explained in a sermon to his congregation – one that was taken by the Founders to heart and mind – the religious duty of all people to resist and destroy an authoritarian leader and his/her regime. “If we calmly consider the nature of the thing,” Mayhew explained in his sermon,

nothing can well be imagined more directly contrary to common sense, than to suppose millions of people should be subjected to the arbitrary, precarious pleasure of one man; (who has naturally no superiority over them in point of authority) so that their estates and everything that is valuable to them in life, and even their lives also, shall absolutely be at his disposal if he happens to be wanton and capricious enough to want them. What unprejudiced man can think that god made ALL subservient to the lawless pleasure and phrenzy of ONE, so that it will always be a sin to resist him! Nothing but the most plain and express revelation from heaven could make a sober impartial man believe such a monstrous, unaccountable doctrine, and indeed, the thing itself, appears so shocking – so out of all proportion, that it may be questioned, whether all the miracles ever wrought, could make it credible, that this doctrine really came from god. At present, there is not the least syllable in scripture that gives any countenance to it. [2]

The much-merited retribution you and your party will receive if you steal the election, Madam Speaker, will be delivered with the quiet determination that typifies the people of this patient, Christian republic, people who know their duty, as described by Rev. Mayhew, it is to annihilate your authoritarianism; these are the patient people of all colors who you and your party have ridiculed, abused, impoverished, and enslaved since the 1930s.

As a personal aside, if the Democrat-promised red mirage mandates the response of a red bloodbath, I pray that I can play at least a small role in the latter’s delivery of justice. In particular, I hope I can help to give justice to politicians in both parties, certain employees of the CIA, NSA, FBI, NSC, and the U.S. military flag officers, whom, I know firsthand, cynically ensured that Osama bin Laden remained alive to stage the 9/11 attack the Democrats and Republicans needed to justify the invasion and occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq, invasions that yielded their control and sale of the narcotics grown and/or trafficked in each, as well as the control of the human-trafficking conducted in and through each.

As the (cleaned-up-a-bit) saying goes, Speaker Pelosi, you and your army of Democrat and Republican authoritarians and Red Miragers will find payback is a catastrophically lethal experience.

Okay, okay, let me, for only a moment, suspend my abiding distrust of Israel, its disloyal Jewish-American servants, and the Congress both corrupted, and ask that you seek just one small return on the American taxpayers’ enormous investment in a country that, as noted below, appears to hate the United States.

First, let us recap. The American republic has been Israel’s defender for multiple decades; the abettor of its deliberate polices intended to create Muslim hatred for the United States; and America’s citizenry has given that country – openly and secretly through the U.S. military and State Department – untold billions of tax dollars, which is plenty of money to have built the border wall, fed all malnourished U.S. kids, and put a dent in the republic’s infrastructure requirements. In addition, your administration has moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem; recognized Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights; pretended Netanyahu is a great and honest leader, not a swindler; and extorted the UAE’s recognition of Israel.

I accept that my personal anger colored the foregoing harsh but accurate depiction of the truth. Sorry. But what has the United States ever gotten from our “most important ally”, our so-called “partner in democracy”. Well, I recall several things. Israel’s air force and navy deliberately attacked and nearly sank the U.S.S. Liberty, killing or wounding more than 200 American sailors. The only other thing Americans have been given by Israel was the efforts of its government, intelligence services, and Jewish-American leaders – along with the regimes and media of Britain, Italy, Australia, and German regimes – to derail your presidential candidacy and then overthrow your administration. Let it be known that I will never claim that Israel refused to give America anything in return for its unending aid.

Notwithstanding these gifts from Israel, the republic and your administration need to call in a small chit from those you describe as our friends and allies. The name on that chit is “George Soros”.

George Soros has said the ambition of his life is to destroy the United States. Have you heard that fact, Sir? He is funding, apparently through his NGO organizations, the election in America of district attorneys who destroy law-and-order, as well the murderous actions of BLM and ANTIFA terrorists in most of our now burning and riot-torn cities. It also was reported this morning, that he, through his network of organizations, is spending billions of dollars to promote mail-in-voting for the 2020 election, and that his companies also build much of the voting machinery used in the polling stations for U.S. elections. Have you been briefed on these realities, Mr. Trump.

Also, Mr. President, did you know that Soros is a self-confessed Nazi Jew-killer, who described his willing wartime cooperation with Nazi operations as the “best time” of his life? And, Sir, did you know that Americans like the Clintons, the Obamas, and many U.S. senators and congressmen are friends of Soros and take money from him that seems to be laundered through his networks of companies and NGOs.

Also, Sir, have you noticed that such big-time Israel-Firsters as Schumer, Krystal, Bloomberg, Durbin, Finestein, Nadler, Schiff, Blumenthal, Cohen, and their disloyal congressional kindred have never once called for Soros to be tried for participating in the Nazis’ wartime Jew-killing. I guess “never again” and “never forget” become inconvenient/unimportant shibboleths that fly out the window when money from Soros pours through the door.

It may just be my suspicious nature, Mr. President, but I would bet there are a gaggle of Democrat politicians who like to watch Soros’s voting machines be manipulated in their party’s favor, and love the fact that that they can count on transfers of unmarked bills from his vast pool of money for campaign contributions and political payoffs. Finally, Sir, one more question. Is it legal for U.S. citizens to hobnob and take financial support from a proud and unrepentant Nazi? Just asking, Mr. President, just asking.

Now, Sir, may I ask if you or you advisers know of another well-known, World War Two Jew-killer that our Israeli “ally” has failed to find and kill, or at least bring to Israel for trial? Can you or anyone on your team name even one (except for Soros)? The Israelis, in recent years, have dragged – with help from the U.S. Justice Department – several doddering, very elderly, once-Nazi, U.S. citizens out of the United States for trial in Israel. Why, Mr. President, has Israel allowed George Soros to escape, for many decades, the well-earned trial and punishment due for his willing aid to the Nazis?

The only evidence-backed, commonsense answer is that Israel and its leaders – and their disloyal Jewish-American operatives – support Soros’s intention to destroy the United States. There seems to be no other reasonable explanation for Israel’s deliberate failure to lethally cancel Soros and his anti-U.S. goals, which, at the moment, seem to be progressing.

What to do? Well, after all of the guns, money, and blood Americans have provided for Israel’s defense and survival, Mr. President, it is far past time for you to call in a favor from our “most loyal ally”. With respect, Sir, you must demand that Netanyahu eliminate the Soros problem once for all, either by capture, trial, and conviction – Soros already has pled guilty, Sir – or by assassination.

If, Mr. President, your request to Netanyahu proves a feckless exercise – which I suspect it will – you can turn to a source you can always rely on. The U.S. Marines, Sir, are known to have an ample supply of grand marksmen. When the Marines finish the job, the sturdy fellows living along the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway can dispose of the putrid refuse.

For any American hardwired to see the world and act in it with commonsense, it should be clear that there are no good reasons to use the word “protestors” to refer to those who are rioting, burning, killing, and terrorizing U.S. cities and their inhabitants.

American citizens equipped with commonsense likewise know that the criminal mob they face is not a mix of peaceful protestors and BLM/ANTIFA gangsters. Rather, it is a murderous mob composed of those who are committing the violence and those who are abetting and cheering-on the violent actors. All in the mob are the same; all are unhinged sub-humans from all races. They do not merit the empathy or patience of any decent American, and neither do the politicians, clergymen, journalists, do-gooders, and racists who excuse or support them.

Rioting in honor of felonious scum like Floyd and Blake makes as much sense as rioting in honor of the memory of pedophile Jeffrey Epstein or that of war-monger John McCain. Each ought to be, at best, damned, then god-damned, and then forgotten fast, never honored.

What all of these rioting semi-humans most need is to be on the receiving end of thoroughly applied, immediate, and comprehensive suppression. Those officers assigned with the task should first start with weapons loaded with ammunition containing the same tranquilizing drugs that are used againts violent or mad animals. Oddly, many of those animals are more intelligent and much less threatening than the rioters.

If the tranquilizer rounds fail to stop the Soros/Democrat-paid rioters, arsonists, and murderers, those officers must be authorized to use live military ammunition to end the criminal campaign by ending the lives of as many of its BLM/ANTIFA perpetrators as possible. Live military rounds, after all, are less expensive and more final than tranquilizer rounds, and the cheaper the final remedy for these rioters, the better.

In Kenosha, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, St. Louis, New York, Washington, DC, and several other Democrat-run U.S. cities that are being burned, and where citizens are being beaten and killed by the local members of the Democratic Party-owned BLM/ANTIFA, the local miscreants – and this is key – have been reinforced by BLM and ANTIFA terrorists, looters, rapists, released felons, pedophiles, and killers shipped in by the Democratic Party from other locations around the country. This latter piece of information changes everything. It shows what is tantamount to a kind of a foreign invasion, or at least an invasion by individuals who have not a single characteristic of a loyal American citizen.

Enter Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year old man who came to Kenosha from his home with a rifle and a medical bag and tried to defend and help nearby neighbors who were being beaten and killed, and whose businesses were being looted and burned. The semi-human Democratic criminal operatives attacked Rittenhouse, and the latter behaved as a good American citizen, one who is knowledgeable of and ready to use his second Amendment rights and responsibilities with exact precision.

Rittenhouse killed his first attacker. He then ran and fell, and while on the ground was slammed with a skateboard to the head. Rittenhouse looked up and killed that bastard. Then a third Democrat terrorist fired his pistol at Rittenhouse, and, splendidly, caught a disabling a bullet in his arm for his trouble. The only sad part of the episode was that Rittenhouse did not score a hat-trick of three dead against his Democrat-terrorist attackers.

Rittenhouse is a young hero, who merely did his duty to his community. He risked his life to help neighbors fend off attackers, and used the 2^nd Amendment’s provisions to preserve his own life and the lives and properties of others.

A second gift from Rittenhouse to his community, as important as neutralizing three crazed, Biden-supported tormentors, is the impetus he provided to his fellow citizens – especially young U.S. military veterans – to recognize that no U.S. citizen is obligated to stand by and watch his home, car, or business being burned by Democratic swine, or to fail to inflict fatal consequences on the same scum when they seek to harm or kill him, his family or his neighbors. Protecting local communities is the first and perhaps most essential role of a militia, and, if America is lucky, Rittenhouse’s necessary, patriotic, and constitutional actions will power the formation of militias across the United States.

For a proper idea of a militia’s role in protecting families, neighbors, and communities, see John Ford’s marvelous movie, Drums Along the Mohawk (1939). When the Continental Army was too busy fighting the British army to send much help, the militia did the necessary. Today, American forces, police and military, seem too busy elsewhere — doing what? — to protect the citizenry. Militias are the best and, perhaps, the only answer

The meaning of the words “America First” are foreign to so many Americans because most have received an education deliberately deformed beyond recognition — especially in the field of history – by generations of teachers, Democratic politicians, and Department of Education bureaucrats, and the opposition of each to liberty, free speech, critical-thinking, and patriotism.

Since 1945, students have been taught that the concept of doing what was best for the republic and its citizens is selfish, dangerously nationalistic, racist, isolationist, and unrealistic – as if anyone in the nation’s scamming education industry has even a single contact point with reality.

Because of this situation, the United States has been used by its bipartisan governing elite – and its on-the-ground agents known as teachers – as a source of funding for every crackpot abstract idea, government, and tyrant in the world. A goodly part of that funding has been pocketed by the elite in the form of kickbacks, and these have enabled tens of thousands of politicians who won election as check-to-check employees to launch into retirement as, at least, multi-millionaires. The motto of these wastes-of-skin have been either “Anyone and Anything but America First” or “NATO, Israel, and Arab Tyrants and Dictators First”.

The elites also have used the U.S. military to wage unnecessary wars that further enriched them, protected tyrannical regimes, and killed and maimed tens of thousands of the nation’s soldier-children. The elected officials of the national government – Republicans and Democrats — have either lost or refused to win every useless war they have entered or started since 1945.

The only important takeaways from these wars are that (a) from private to Lieutenant-Colonel our fighting men and women have performed well and courageously; (b) from Colonel to top general or admiral they have been led by officers who sucked up to the political warmongers and obeyed presidents who did not intend to win the wars they started, all without having a second thought about the lives of their troops; and (c) from 1945 to this day, not one Marine, soldier, sailor, airman, or coast guardsmen who has died or been crippled in battle can be said to have found his or her fate in a battle to protect U.S. freedom and liberty. They have died for corrupt, tyrannical, avaricious, and elitist bastards who used their blood, bodies, and limbs to enrich themselves and play the blood-dripping role of “Leader of the Free World.”

During these decades, military men and women were used by both political parties and their senior generals as pawns not to protect the republic, but to drain it of both its best young people and its riches, the latter in the name of feathering their own nests. They also used America’s fighting forces in myriad unnecessary wars to justify the gradual – and now galloping – elimination of civil liberties at home, especially the permanent rights of Americans found in the 1st, 2nd, and 4th Amendments to the Constitution.

In the post-war era, the bipartisan governing elite and its generals waged wars-of-choice not to defeat foreign enemies that threatened the republic’s survival. Rather, they fought and used them as the justification for constricting and eventually ending – in the name of internal security — the rights of a restless, at times rowdy, ambitious, religious, patriotic, argumentative, and hardworking population, most of which wanted nothing from the national government but lower taxes and to left alone. These wars were meant to facilitate the enslavement of the citizenry, never to defeat an enemy.

Then, almost miraculously, along comes Trump and the return of America First. Since 20 January, 2017, the United States has started no new wars; has brought the North Korea problem down from a war-boil to a slower simmer; has killed al-Baghdadi and his lieutenants; ended, for now, the Islamic State’s physical caliphate; killed Iran’s butcher Soleimani with magnificent skill; brought troops home from Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Europe; began the long overdue dismantling of NATO, and the proper abandonment of 27 faux allies who want Americans to pay for their defense and fight their wars. Trump’s administration also has rebuilt the U.S. military – after Bush and Obama had run it into the ground – and Trump has made clear that he does not intend to use it unless America is attacked or is imminently and genuinely threatened.

Trump also has made it clear to all citizens that the U.S. military belongs to them not to the politicians, and that it will be used only to defend them, their republic, their Union, and their Constitution. He has promised that it will not be used to wage interventionist wars abroad that kill their soldier-children in the name of imposing on unwilling foreigners such abstract, war-causing ideas as spreading democracy, gender equality, human rights, elections, diversity, multiculturalism, women’s rights, etc.

In other words, the U.S. military will henceforth be used as the Founders intended; that is, to defend America, never to interfere in the manner in which one set or another of foreigners are governed; or simply to wage war because a president dislikes a particular foreign leader, and so wages a war against “a bad man”, such as Gadhafi, Saddam, Mullah Omar, Slobodan Milosevic, etc.

How has Trump done? Well has made a very good start in beginning to move the republic into what the Virginian John Randolph called the “snug safe haven” of neutrality and non-intervention. But the proof of the pudding is in the words of hisdomestic foes, women and men from both parties who are now pouring scorn on Trump and America First.

Their words irrefutably prove that Trump is on the right foreign-policy track for the republic and its citizens. He is tearing down America’s post-1945, all-war-all-the-time foreign policy, and so the corrupt, power hungry, war-mongers are wailing crocodile tears, while promoting their stale and already-failed “expertise”.

First, listen to Obama-automaton and ultimate sophmoric loser, Susan Rice:

“Our allies don’t know what to make of us. The president of the United States is a liar and the whole world knows it. I’m deeply, deeply concerned that if we had four more years of this, we would not be an America that anybody can recognize. The situation would be unsalvageable, our national security and standing in the world irreparably damaged.” (18 August 2020) [2]

–Next, listen to 73 self-identified GOP “foreign policy experts”, men and women who gave us wars in Vietnam, for Israel, Somalia, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Iraq (twice), Yemen, etc. These are men and women who never gave a damn about either the military personnel they got killed or maimed, the parents/families of those casualties, or the trillions of taxpayer dollars they wasted or, more likely, pocketed. (NB: These 73 warmongers hate Trump because he hates unnecessary wars and useless alliances, which makes Trump all aces with most non-elite Americans. This list noted above, incidentally, includes the name of man named Philip Zelikow. He is the man who ensured Americans never got the full scoop on 9/11, and probably lives in trembling terror that Trump will declassify the 9/11 Commission’s archives when reelected.)

“A Statement by Former Republican National Security Officials: We are former national security officials who served during the administrations of Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush, and/or Donald Trump, or as Republican Members of Congress. We are profoundly concerned about the course of our nation under the leadership of Donald Trump. Through his actions and his rhetoric, Trump has demonstrated that he lacks the character and competence to lead this nation and has engaged in corrupt behavior that renders him unfit to serve as President.” [3]

Finally, listen to Richard Haass, the President of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). The CFR, of course, is an elitist, war-mongering, and globalist organization that, since its inception, has championed interventionism, global government, more and more power for the Western World’s elites, and the repression of unruly populations, especially Americans and their passionate republicanism.

“And if Trump is reelected? Buoyed by an electoral victory that he would interpret as a mandate, he would likely double down on the central elements of the foreign policy that has defined his first term. At some point, disruption becomes so far-reaching that there is no turning back. Present at the Disruption could become Present at the Destruction. …

A great deal hinges on which course the United States follows. Even a partial restoration would make Trump’s foreign policy something of an aberration, in which case its impact would prove limited. But if his brand of foreign policy persists for another four years, Trump will be seen as a truly consequential president. In this scenario, the model embraced by the United States from World War II until 2016 will prove to be the aberration—a relatively brief exception in a longer tradition of isolationism, protectionism, and nationalist unilateralism. History makes it impossible to view this latter prospect with anything but alarm.’ [4]

Note especially Haass’s intense fear of America’s return to its “longer tradition of isolationism, protectionism, and nationalist unilateralism”; that is, of returning to peace and domestic prosperity. Here Haass is speaking for Rice, the 73 failed GOP foreign policy experts, and really all of the American elite who have enriched themselves, and their egos, at the citizenry’s expense, through endless war, dead and maimed military personnel, wasted or stolen taxpayer trillions, the liberties of Americans, and the drastic reduction of the republic’s sovereignty and independence of action.

Haass and his Legion-of-the-Corrupt-Elite fear Trump not only because of  his America First policy, but because, through Trump, Americans in all walks of life are getting an opportunity to relearn the legacy of the Founders, especially  the strong desire of those fine and talented men for a republic that would always operate in the world on the peace-protecting principles of non-intervention – “isolationism” is slur thrown by failed globalists – and, again, “the snug safe haven of neutrality.” [5]

Thank you, Mr. President. Press on boldly, Sir, press on.

I have only written about Qanon one previous time in this space. A bit of ridicule came may way for doing so, but such things are all in a day’s work. The following is from President Trump’s news conference on 19 August 2020.

One of beginnings of wisdom in life is to never say never.

The italicized and bolded words below are my doing.

Speaker 1: (12:28)
During the pandemic, the QAnon movement appears to be gaining a lot of followers. Can you talk about what you think about that and what you have to say to people who are following this movement right now?

Donald Trump: (12:40)
Well, I don’t know much about the movement other than I understand they like me very much, which I appreciate. But I don’t know much about the movement. I have heard that it is gaining in popularity. And from what I’ve hear is these are people that when they watch the streets of Portland, when they watch what happened in New York city in just the last six or seven months, but this was starting even four years ago when I came here. Almost four years, can you believe it? These are people that don’t like seeing what’s going on in places like Portland and places like Chicago and New York and other cities and states.

Donald Trump: (13:21)
And I’ve heard these are people that love our country and they just don’t like seeing it. So I don’t know really anything about it other than they do supposedly like me. And they also would like to see problems in these areas, especially the areas that we’re talking about, go away. Because there’s no reason the Democrats can’t run a city. And if they can’t, we will send in all of the federal, whether it’s troops or law enforcement, whatever, they’d like. We’ll send them in. We’ll straighten out their problem in 24 hours or less.

Speaker 1: (13:57)
The cause of the theory is this belief that you are secretly saving the world from this satanic cult of pedophiles and cannibals. Does that sound like something you are behind or-

Donald Trump: (14:12)
Well, I haven’t heard that. But is that supposed to be a bad thing or a good thing? I mean, if I can help save the world from problems, I’m willing to do it. I’m willing to put myself out there. And we are actually. We’re saving the world from a radical left philosophy that will destroy this country. And when this country is gone, the rest of the world would follow. The rest of the world would follow. That’s the importance of this country. And when you look at some of the things that these people are saying with defund the police and no borders, open borders, everybody just pour right into our country, no testing, no nothing. You talk about testing, no testing. Mexico as you know has a very high rate of infection. The wall is now going to be, next week, 300 miles long. [1]

For as long as I remember, an endless number of prominent people have been saying that it is important that all Americans vote. I was, initially, ambivalent about that message, but now I am its ferocious opponent. It does not matter a lick whether 50-percent of legal voters come out, of if 98-percent of them appear at the polls.

Voting is a supremely personal choice. If an American knows the history of his republic, appreciates the sacrifices of his parents and other forebearers, knows its current problems, seeks to improve his family’s economic lot, and believes in equality before the law, he will break his back be informed about what is at stake, get to a poll, and vote according to his family’ interests, thereby helping to protect his nation’s legacy and future.

Why in the world would anyone want to have people who do not care anything about the foregoing considerations to be constantly pushed — by media personalities, politicians, celebrities, pundits, clergy, do-gooders, etc. — to go and vote? Those who choose not to vote can only be pushed to do so if they if there is some material payoff or legal preference in that action for them or their group. Nancy Pelosi’s insane claim in 2018 that the Congress would be better than ever because the largest number of women ever were elected to it was dead wrong. It is the worst and most corrupt Congress in modern memory, and the female Democratic members have shown they are only rude, abusive, weak-minded, and hectoring school-marms. Simply put, more voters ensures only that there are more voters. As the freshman, female Democratic congresswomen of 2018 have proven, “more” has everything to do with numbers and less than zero to do with quality.

Indeed, it is politicians, media, and clergymen pushing, threatening, or bribing people to vote that yields the election of such barely human refuse as Pelosi, Schumer, Durbin, Cuomo, Biden, Murphy, Wolf, Hoyer, Whitmer, Cortez, Sanders, Harris, Newsom, Warren, and, really, the entirety of the Democratic Party, especially its terrorist, subhuman species known as the mostly White, Black Lives Matter. If the nation’s politically ignorant, anarchist, criminal, drug-addled, and anti-American stay home, the republic loses nothing. Rather, it gains enormously by having an election decided by informed patriots.

Elections decided by legal voters who take the trouble to physically get to a poll, care about their country, their family, and their historical legacy, after all, is the basis for having elections in the first place. No matter for whom these people vote, they are those the Founders and the Constitution most aspired to have as voters among the great mass of citizens the latter enfranchised. Of course, the Founders were dealing with a better educated, more widely literate, and more critical-thinking population than that which exists today. Indeed, the Founders’ generation believed the new republic needed such a citizenry to survive. In October, 1787, for example, the Federalist Noah Webster argued that although property

“is considered as the basis of freedom of the American yeomanry, there are other auxiliary supports [for freedom], among which is the information of the people. In no country is education so general – in no country, have the body of the people such knowledge of the rights of men and the principles of governments. This knowledge, joined with a sense of liberty and watchful jealousy [That is, constant suspicion of the national government’s intent], will guard our constitutions, and awaken the people to an instantaneous resistance of encroachments. [1]

Mail-in voting is the ultimate proof that the well-informed citizenry on which the Founders grounded the republic’s survival is long gone, thanks to the Democrats, the media, and the teacher unions. The mail-in ploy has nothing to do with the Chinese Virus, and even less with the cynical sappiness of claims that it would protect the health of Americans.  It is a simply another Democrat ploy to find a way to make sure ignorant, lazy, illegally here, and easily corrupted people cast ballots.

In short, mail-ins would allow many more slugs to vote, and permit the Democrats to cull greater vote-harvests from the plantation they created by bringing in immigrants from countries where authoritarianism, bribery, and endemic corruption are deeply entrenched, and have been a way of life for centuries. Mexico, Pakistan, India, China, and Saudi Arabia, are just a few of many dozens of nation-states – most, maddeningly, the smug recipients of U.S. foreign aid — in which corruption long has been a key component of economic-and-political culture, a trait of national character, if you will, from time out of mind. This trait never disappears simply because a person crosses a border.

Legal or illegal immigrants from such countries do not magically understand their privileges and responsibilities under the U.S. Constitution’s design for ordered liberty. They bring their heritage with them; some learn to be good and responsible citizens over time, many more remain the corrupt products of their former countries’ endlessly corrupt political/economic heritage. The latter will vote as they are told or paid to, or they will allow their mail-in vote form to be filled out by their Democrat masters.

The proof of the foregoing is found in the ludicrous ignorance of so many Americans under forty who have no conception of the foregoing, nor know anything about their own country’s political system or the responsibilities of citizenship. These stupid people may be legal voters, but they are nothing more than semi-educated sheep indoctrinated by teachers and professors who are Democratic Party operatives and, perhaps, traitors, given the almost weekly arrest of university professors now in the pay of Beijing. The Democrats then herd these mindless sheep to the polls – physically or by mail, dead or alive – to vote as they are told.

It is a madness to think that it is smart or patriotic to keep urging such voters to vote.

On a tangent from the foregoing:

–a.) Can it really be a coincidence that after the New York attorney general launched a legally absurd attempt to “dissolve” the National Rifle Association (NRA), that there were large shootings in Washington, D.C. (1 killed, 20 wounded), Denver, Colorado (9 wounded), and, last Friday, a shooter was shot while on his way to kill at the White House?

–b.) Can it really be a coincidence that although the national government’s medical establishment – Fauci, Birks, Redfield, et. al – repeatedly said the Chinese Virus had little or no impact on youngsters, that the China Virus-testers found – straight out of the blue — 97,000 children who tested positive? [2] This happened, oddly enough, just after some of the country’s large school districts decided to open their schools for the fall semester?

–-c.) Can it possibly be a coincidence that the cities being looted and burned by the Democrats’ Black Lives Matter-scum are also longstanding sanctuary cities?

A man named Steven Malanga — Senior Editor at the City Journal — yesterday (31 July 2020) published an article in that journal called “More Panicked Than Presidential”.[1] This weepy piece about the evil of Trump’s suggestion that the November election might be delayed is built only on his own tears, partisanship, and dearth of perceptiveness.

Malanga creates an indelible portrait of the non-existent, politically perfect, and even saintly Abraham Lincoln. In truth, Lincoln may well have been the best, smartest, most patient, shrewdest, and toughest politician ever to win the republic’s presidency. Such a piece as Malanga’s could have been written only by a mindlessly partisan, half-baked historian. Malanga entirely misses Lincoln’s non-altruistic character, as well as the fact that Trump’s statement neatly annihilated a fallback position the Democrats had coveted if they fail to get universal mail-in-voting.

Let’s put the author’s pure-hero portrait of Lincoln to rest. I’ll first say that I consider Lincoln one of the greatest Americans, and that I have no gripe about the way he handled the 1864 election. General George McClellan, Lincoln’s opponent in 1864, was a genuine traitor — just like Obama, Biden, Hillary Clinton, Holder, Carey, etc. He refused to press the war on the Confederacy; indeed, he nearly lost at Antietam even though he had a copy of Lee’s battle plan for the Army of Northern Virginia. He did his best to poison the army and the population against Lincoln, and created a senior-command clique in the army that supported him in these subversive actions. For those reasons alone he had to be defeated in 1864, and he was.

But Lincoln had to pull out the stops to make sure this occurred. In particular, Lincoln and his senior commanders furloughed numerous Union regiments that came from states where the presidential-election race was thought to be close. The soldiers marched home, most voted for their commander in chief, helped to defeat McClellan, reelected Lincoln, and, in the end, saved the Union. Preserving the Union — not ending slavery — was the North’s aim in the war and it was achieved. All praise to Abraham Lincoln, who knew that he could not have fielded a strong army in 1861 — or any other time during the war — if he had claimed the war was being fought to end slavery, not to save the Union. Slavery ended, thank God, because the North won the war and maintained the Union. Slavery’s end was a splendid by-product of the war.

Next, it is clear that Trump’s statement on the election this week was meant to stir the pot, and it clearly succeeded. Loyal Americans will re-elect Trump in November, 2020, unless the Democrats use Chief Justice Roberts and their other slave-judges in the federal judiciary to install universal mail-in voting. Indeed, Trump used his statement to cut off a route of retreat for the Democrats. Without his statement, you can bet that the Democrats — if they failed to secure universal mail-in voting — would have made a Malanga-like, weepy, late-October plea to delay the presidential election to protect the health of the American people. That fallback position was killed by the Democrats’ fierce, even maniacal reaction to Trump’s comment about a delayed election.

Finally, in regard to Malanga’s claim that “the president does not have the power to delay the election,” it can only be said that he is dead wrong. Clearly, the president, in normal times, cannot, by whim, delay a presidential election. But the United States currently is facing an “armed insurrection” that has been building in violence, terror, and economic damage since Inauguration Day in 2017.

Today, Trump has a much stronger case for declaring a state of insurrection than did Lincoln in April, 1861. The Confederates caused an infinitesimally smaller amount of death, maiming, and property destruction, between secession and Fort Sumter, than Democrats’ armed forces have in the past month alone. That is why there is no possible chance of any reconciliation between Loyal Americans and the Democrats and their completely racist, though multi-racial, paramilitary forces. The Democrats and their operatives are not honorable Confederates, they are simply amoral, authoritarian, and snarling. In short, all Democrats are death-loving animals.

Overall, those who self-identify as Democrats — from teachers to terrorists, from politicians to freed-criminals, from judges to abortionists — are well-advised to hope they lose to Trump in November. If they win a rigged election, it will be their too-long-delayed turn to find a glorious river of their blood flowing through streets across the country, which, as Jefferson said, is periodically needed to refresh the tree of liberty.[2]
