The Ides of January

Jarrod was nice enough to come down Friday evening to plow out the front lawn so we can still drive right to the front door! Likely saved us 2+ Hours of additional snow blowing.

More snow Sunday evening another 8 inches or so, lots of trees bent some snapped mostly pines from the heavy burden of snow. All of the birches bent completely to the ground, the snow is supposed to continue until Monday evening, they'll be cleanup in the spring for sure.

Roof Raked the house removing probably 20 tons of snow, we snow blow'd twice today, we got another 12" on top of the 7-8" we got Friday... sheesh...  this is enough to make ya want go to Florida.   Pepperell MA. only got 2" of fluffy white crap. 

The snow continued to build, the carport in the field has collapsed onto the boat, I'll have to go out with the roof rake and take some of the load off...

The collapsed carport...

Nice snow hat on the birdhouses
 

Called our plow guy they said this storm was definitely an over achiever!

Rose and I went up on the workshop roof on Saturday, the sliding snow ripped out some of the fasteners holding the tin roof down, we screwed all the loose edges down it should hold us until warmer weather. Those March winds howl around here in the spring...

 

LOL The good news...

It took ‘em long enough.

Yesterday, Senator Josh Hawley introduced a long-overdue bill that would ban members of Congress from trading and owning stocks. To this we say: It’s about time. But if the best part of the bill is what it does, the second-best part is surely its name: the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act.

Yes, it’s called the PELOSI Act.

“Members of Congress and their spouses,” Hawley trumpeted “shouldn’t be using their position to get rich on the stock market — today l’m introducing legislation to BAN stock trading and ownership by members of Congress. I call it the PELOSI Act.”

 

 

ECONOMIC MADNESS

Today, close to half of all Americans are living on the edge financially. For many, it is out of necessity, but for others it is a conscious choice. Way too many people out there see no need to build up a substantial financial cushion because they have a tremendous amount of faith in the economic system. They don’t think that things will ever get too bad in this country, and so there is no urgency to put funds away for a rainy day. But even if authorities could somehow prevent an economic collapse from ever happening again, individual emergencies are taking place all around us on a constant basis. Cars break down, people get sick, and accidents happen.

Unfortunately, most Americans are completely unprepared for some sort of an emergency to strike. In fact, a brand new survey has discovered that just 41 percent of Americans could cover a $1,000 emergency expense using their current savings…

Unfortunately, an increasing number of experts are warning that our luck is about to run out. In fact, the head of the IMF recently warned that we could potentially be facing another economic collapse and “Great Depression”.

But despite all of the evidence to the contrary, the irrational optimists would still have us believe that America has entered a new era of tremendous economic prosperity. I actually wish that was true.

“Under no circumstances should Republicans vote to cut a single penny from Government-run Medicare or Social Security to help pay for Brain-Dead Biden’s reckless spending spree, which is more reckless than anybody’s ever done or had in the history of our country,” Trump said Friday in a video posted to TRUTH Social. “We absolutely need to stop Biden’s out-of-control spending. The pain should be borne by Washington bureaucrats, not by hard-working American families and American seniors.”

 “Cut the hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars going to corrupt foreign countries. Cut the mass releases of illegal aliens that are depleting our social safety net and destroying our country. Cut the left-wing gender programs from our military. Cut the billions being spent on climate extremism. Cut waste, fraud and abuse everywhere we can find it. And there’s plenty of it. But do not cut the benefits our seniors worked for and paid for their entire lives. Save Social Security, don’t destroy it,”

On every level of society, debt levels are absolutely skyrocketing.

We are literally committing national financial suicide, but many people don’t seem to care.

Living standards have declined dramatically in recent years thanks to inflation and the continued control over people. The media and rulers continue to put the blame everywhere except where it should be. On them.

A simple lie is the only thing left that’s allowing the masters/ruling class to continue to control the slave class. And they are watching our standard of living decrease and laughing from their ivory towers as their enforcers and tax agents continue to steal from their fellow human beings.

 

Border Disaster 

CBP sources confirmed to Fox News on Sunday that they are at least 1.2 million known gotaways since Biden took office – illegal aliens who have been observed coming across the border, but who managed to escape authorities and have disappeared into the country, their identities and whereabouts now unknown. 

 

 

GOVT MADNESS

On Tuesday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken issued an order banning the use of Times New Roman font in all Inept State Department communications.

Why is Times New Roman, which was created in 1932, suddenly so problematic? If you guessed it was because the Biden administration determined the font was racist, I wouldn’t blame you for thinking so. Given recent developments, it seemed inevitable that someone would declare that all serif fonts are tools of white supremacy. But, believe it or not, for once, the decision actually had to do with something entirely different.

The Inept State Department is ditching Times New Roman out of a desire to be more “inclusive” to “employees who are visually impaired or have other difficulties reading,” according to the Washington Post.

They have lies that make no sense like modeling the entire political spectrum as “Liberal-Conservative”; claims that fascism belongs on the “far right” or that anarchism belongs on the “far left.” Repeating the same lies until they can bluff their way into pretending it’s the truth.

During her 18-minute speech, Kamala Harris decried Florida’s ban on abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy, saying the proponents of this lifesaving legislation were “extremists.” It was an odd choice of words to say the least, given that her Democrat Party ardently believes in a woman’s right to an abortion at any stage of pregnancy, right up until the moment of delivery. And she’s calling our side the extremists?  She also tried to appropriate the Declaration of Independence for her pro-abortion argument, but in order to do so, consider the violence she had to do to that document’s most memorable passage: “We are each endowed,” she said, “with the right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

Huh? Who, exactly, did our Founders believe endowed those rights? And what happened to the first and foremost of those rights — the right without which the others are meaningless? What happened to the right to life?

This butchery of our nation’s founding document is, sadly, not a new occurrence. The Democrats have been writing its precise language out of their prepared remarks for years — and willfully so, not just due to the demented ramblings of their party’s standard-bearer.

FBI searched Biden home, found even more items marked classified

Of course just about every large tech company is laying off workers these days.

• Microsoft is laying off workers.
• Amazon is laying off workers.
• Facebook is laying off workers.
• Twitter is laying off workers.

We haven’t seen anything like this since 2008, and that is because we haven’t had an economic crisis like this since 2008.

So many people are going to lose their jobs in the months ahead.

And the economic pain that we will experience in 2023 will be just the beginning, because the entire system is starting to come down all around us.

Did you actually think that we could go on the greatest debt binge in all of human history and that everything would work out just fine somehow?

That is not how the real world works.

The federal government, working hand-in-hand with universities, private companies and Big Tech, is funneling millions of dollars in taxpayer money to fund an AI censorship program to be used on American citizens. 

COVID Madness

US drugmaker Pfizer attempted to “bully the Indian government” into granting it indemnity from legal action over its Covid-19 vaccine, Electronics and Technology Minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar has claimed. The vaccine shot was ultimately never approved in India.

“Just to remind all Indians, that Pfizer tried to bully the government of India into accepting conditions of indemnity,” Chandrasekhar tweeted on Friday. The minister then accused three prominent opposition leaders of “pushing foreign vaccines during Covid.”

 

It's a clean up weekend 

We're cleaning up on projects we didn't complete during the week.

Pellet stove clean out, vacuuming out the interior and the heat exchange panels inside, a necessary evil when you are burning it to keep the heat output of the pellet stove high.

We're still amazed a the sheer number of trees down on the property, wet weather, straight line winds and wet low lying areas probably all contributed to the downed trees.   We'll be spending some quality time with the chainsaw and contributing a lot to the burn pile for sure later this year.

Up to Henniker Feed for course cracked corn for the deer, and Tractor supply for Dog food on Sunday,  they are out of the pouches we've been supplementing the dogs food with.  They did have cheaper suet cakes at TS so we got a case of those.

While we didn't win the 1.35 Billion dollar top prize in MegaMillions, we won $2.00 so there's that...  We won $4.00 on Power ball on Saturday, it's up to 416 million, now so we'll get a couple of tickets just in case.

 

Food for thought...

In November of 2020, a freak wave came out of the blue, lifting a lonesome buoy off the coast of British Columbia 58 feet high. The four-story wall of water was finally confirmed in February 2022 as the most extreme rogue wave ever recorded.

Question: Who pays for welfare when everyone is on welfare?

The SWAMP

A ploy? It’s not a ploy when the Department of Justice treats parents as terrorists, moms and dads who are simply showing up at a school board meeting to advocate for their son or daughter.

A ploy? It’s not a ploy when the FBI pays Twitter $3 million, not one, not two, but $3 million to censor American citizens.

It’s not a ploy when the Department of Homeland Security tries to set up a disinformation governance board because we all know that the Department of Homeland Security can tell what’s good speech and what is bad speech.

According to Forbes, Congress has raised, extended or revised the definition of the debt limit 78 times since 1960 in order to allow the government to essentially fund its existence with a credit card.

"President Biden does not have a plan."  Actually, he does.  It is called let millions of illegals in, make them citizens, and get re-elected in 2024.

HEATING AND FUEL

Bill To Bar U.S. From Selling Oil Reserves to China Passes House With Bipartisan Support

Vote comes after Free Beacon report showed Biden sold one million reserve barrels to Chinese oil giant

 

INFLATION

Inflation is over, next comes recession and possibly deflation.

Food prices climbed 0.3%, the smallest gain in nearly two years, after rising 0.5% in the prior month. The cost of food consumed at home increased 0.2%, also the least since March 2021. Fruit and vegetable prices fell as did those for dairy products, but meat, poultry and fish cost more. Egg prices surged 11.1% because of avian flu.

According to this farmer … the producers can’t cover their costs, so there are now millions of fewer hens, and many millions of fewer eggs produced PER DAY.

We Won’t Be Fooled Again – Inflation Is Most Definitely Not “Under Control”

We have entered a significant economic downturn, so it was inevitable that the annual rate of inflation would start to moderate.  But as I will explain below, that doesn’t mean that inflation is now “under control”.  The real rate of inflation is much higher than we are being told, and people all over the country are being absolutely crushed by the rising cost of living.

Still, inflation remains about three times higher than the pre-pandemic average, underscoring the persistent financial burden placed on millions of U.S. households by high prices.

 

Experts at the conservative think tank analyzed consumer prices and interest rates and found in their latest report released Thursday that the average American household has lost the equivalent of $7,400 in annual income since Biden’s inauguration Jan. 20, 2021. The income loss represents an increase of $200 from September, when the think tank’s research found a $7,200 decline in annual income for the average American household dating back to the start of Biden’s term.

 

This month, Social Security recipients started receiving bigger checks from Uncle Sam, all to help alleviate 40-year-high inflation brought to you by Joe Biden and Co.

When are people going to finally understand that we have a major league crisis on our hands?

When Goldman Sachs lays off large numbers of workers, that is a red flag.

When Morgan Stanley lays off large numbers of workers, that is a red flag.

When Amazon lays off large numbers of workers, that is a red flag.

Facebook, Twitter, McDonald’s, and Walmart are also laying off workers.

As they used to say in the 1980s, it is time to wake up and smell the coffee.

At this point, things are so grim that the World Bank is warning that the entire global economy could plunge into a recession this year…

The global economy is just one more knock away from a second recession in the same decade, something that hasn’t happened in more than 80 years.

That’s the latest warning from the World Bank, which on Tuesday sharply lowered its forecast for global economic growth.

As economic conditions deteriorate, people are going to become increasingly desperate.

And desperate people do desperate things.

So if you think that organized retail theft is bad now, just wait until you see what is ahead.

The social deterioration that we have been witnessing over the past several years will soon accelerate significantly, and that is really bad news for all of us.

Many retail stores on both coasts have already closed due to the epidemic of theft that we are experiencing, and a whole lot more will soon be permanently shut down.

We really are in the process of becoming a “Mad Max society”

 

Talk about Gloom and Doom!!!

COVID-19

Vaccine Update: Yet more disturbing evidence of the perpetrated lies and cover-up regarding the C-19 “vaccine” and booster rollout. How can ANYONE call it “safe, effective, and necessary?”

Masks Are Back: WHO Urges Travelers To Wear Face Masks

American Airlines has announced the closure of multiple flight routes across America due to a massive shortage of pilots, many of whom have died since getting the Covid vaccine. American Airlines has dropped 19 cities from its routes since the beginning of the pandemic. Other airlines have seen similar... The news comes as multiple reports have shown that pilots are suffering fatal heart attacks, sometimes mid-flight, due to complications from the mandatory Covid vaccine they had to take. 

U.S. Approaches Record Number of Avian Influenza Outbreaks in Wild Birds and Poultry - According to the USDA, 47 states are impacted and farmers have been hit hard by the bird flu driving up the cost of eggs and causing egg shortages.

Seventy-five years. That’s how long Pfizer and the FDA tried to hide the Pfizer documents from public view — long after just about everyone affected is dead. It wasn’t until renowned attorney Aaron Siri led a FOIA case against the FDA that a federal judge ordered the documents to be released in 108 days, the same amount of time it took the FDA to approve the Covid-19 injections.

So what exactly is within those documents? What is there to uncover that Pfizer and the FDA didn’t want available for public view?

The war on Ivermectin is proving to be costly for the Vaccine Extremists. While Vaxx side effects continue to harm or kill Americans, another study on Ivermectin demonstrates what we’ve all been saying all along. Unlike The Jabs™, remdesivir, or Paxlovid, Ivermectin gets results.

They seem smitten with medical socialism and the control it offers.

The facts speak for themselves, and you can find them in the barrage of scientific studies that come out every month. There’s no doubt among actual experts. Continuing to catch and spread Covid will drive our mortality rates higher and higher, while driving life expectancy lower.

 

GREEN AGENDA

The Lefts Green Agenda: Even the EPA says gas stoves “burn very cleanly, emitting very little pollution.” Furthermore, according to the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood, a far more comprehensive study than the one the CPSC is using, there is “no evidence of an association between the use of gas as a cooking fuel and either asthma symptoms or asthma diagnosis.”

For the Biden administration, however, The Science™ is always a moving target.

“What historians will definitely wonder about in future centuries is how deeply flawed logic, obscured by shrewd and unrelenting propaganda, actually enabled a coalition of powerful special interests to convince nearly everyone in the world that CO₂ from human industry was a dangerous planet-destroying toxin. It will be remembered as the greatest mass delusion in the history of the world – that CO₂, the life of plants, was considered for a time to be a deadly poison.”

IMMIGRATION

‘They’ve Learned Nothing’: Experts Say Biden’s Latest Immigration Proposal Will Do Little To Alleviate Border Crisis

KILLIN' those babies

Indeed it is, and though some Democrats tried to couch their “no” vote in feigned concern over transporting a “struggling baby” to a hospital that may be hours away, nearly every Democrat took the side of death without dignity, the side of infanticide. That includes the “good Catholic” Nancy Pelosi, who condemned Republicans’ “extreme anti-choice agenda,” which she claimed threatens “the freedom to access reproductive health services — without fear of violence, intimidation or harassment.”

BIDEN's CLASSIFIED DOCS

The rule of law is the cornerstone of an ordered society. But when ‘progressive’ officials — from the president down to local district attorneys — refuse to enforce the law, chaos ensues. It’s time to end the chaos, enforce the law, and hold Biden and all federal and state executive branch officials accountable for failing to do their jobs.”

The ultimate right to declassify documents belongs to the president, not the vice president, Trump has the right to declassify virtually any documents he pleased while he was in office whereas Biden, as a mere vice president, had no authority to declassify them.  

Third, since all presidents are protected by the Secret Service for the remainder of their lives after they leave office, and since the documents in Trump’s possession were at his Mar-a-Lago compound, Trump’s walled compound with locked gates and rooms in the presence of the Secret Service, those documents were extremely well protected. 

By contrast, since Biden’s classified and top-secret documents were kept at think tank at the University of Pennsylvania funded by $22 million from anonymous sources in China, there is plenty of reason to worry that the Biden document’s may have been accessed by China, the greatest threat to the U.S., according to FBI Director Christopher Wray. And they just found more documents in Joe's garage...  lol

When Biden was addressing the matter on Wednesday, he stumbled, and nobody caught it. He admitted that documents were discovered in his New Jersey office, making it the third location. Where does it end? One question I cannot believe has gone unasked is if Biden does not know how the documents got into his home office, garage, and Penn-Biden office, then who put them there. We need names and answers, and they are not being asked or answered.

He rightly pointed to the irony that a guy “on ’60 Minutes’ that was so concerned about President Trump’s documents” now has been revealed to have kept secret documents “for years out in the open in different locations,” none of them secure.

Now to the double standard: “Did he utilize the Justice Department to raid President Trump?” And: “You watched them leak photos of files of President Trump; where’s the photos of President Biden’s documents?”

That is: “Why would they go after a political opponent that way, why would they leak photos and say all this, why would they go through the former first lady’s clothing, why would they go through his son’s clothing, why would they raid as they did?”

Biden was only ex-vice president when he carried off his secrets — meaning he had zero right to do so. Yet he asked on “60 Minutes” of Trump’s docu-mess, “How could anyone be that irresponsible?”

 

 That's all folks...

The other January 6th

It's January 11th already!

Rose and I are up and about now, only the lung congestion and cough remain at this point a month and a half later.  We're doing stuff around the farm that needs doing.

On Wednesday Rose and I moved a 1/2 ton of pellets to the doghouse. It's closer to the back door where we bring them into the house.  Whew...

Well we didn't win the 1.1 Billion dollar MegaMillions lottery on Tuesday, so I guess I can't retire yet.   1.3 Billion is slated for Friday January 13th!

Rose saw a Goldfinch in the apple tree yesterday, he looked out of place.

Birds are flocking to the suet we put out at the deer yard, no bears in sight.

                                Our Christmas Cactus is happy!

Whole Chickens are now $12 a bird at MB, that's for MB chickens, not even the Perdue birds yikes...  

Rose made up 11 quart bags of Chicken soup to replenish our freezer stocks, we used 3 rotisserie chickens at $4.96 a bird, much cheaper than the uncooked chickens we saw. On to Turkey soup next...

Rose made up a batch of turkey soup last month that rivaled Nana's! (we'd picked up an extra turkey for leftovers then we got sick) It was so good... no, it was awesome!

February is fast approaching, that means Chili season, I for one am ready!

I'm going to start some Sauerkraut this month, the articles I've been reading all say that fresh Kraut is far superior to the canned store kraut! Wish me luck I can't wait to try this.

On New Year Resolutions:  Waiting until the dawn of spring, specifically around the time of the spring equinox, to make more concrete resolutions. After the spring equinox — which is March 20th this year — days will begin to be longer than nights. Light will outpace darkness. Photosynthesis will return. Water will start to thaw and flow. Buds will reappear. The world, including yourself, will reawaken, and it’s at this time that you may feel greater direction, clarity, and energy as to where you’d like to go and what you’d like to do in the coming year. 

We went out to get/replace the Nyquil we used last month, Rite Aid COLD/FLU isle was decimated, nothing at all on the entire aisle shelves.  We were able to pickup the last 2 pak of bottles on the shelf from Wally world... whew!

I spoke to one of my guys in Canada, he mentioned that a 16 lb. turkey in Canada is $100 a bird now $6.25/lb...  And it costs $48 for a family of three to go to McDonald's!  WOW! I thought our prices were bad!

 

COVID-19,  XBB 1.5, The Kraken Variant

More Evidence Arises That Ivermectin Is Safe And Effective At Treating Covid-19... Doctors That Advocate For It’s Use Are Still Ridiculed And Persecuted.

Bill Gates Vows To Pump mRna Into Food Supply To ‘Force-Jab’ the Unvaccinated What could possibly go wrong...

The omicron strain has continued to mutate; there are now more than 650 subvariants, and that doesn’t include the previous Greek-letter versions like Alpha, Gamma, Delta, and their subtypes.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes that the very contagious XBB1.5 made up 27 percent of US cases for the week ending on January 7^th, a major increase from the month before. More than 70 percent of cases in the Northeast are now believed to be the Kraken variant.

The CoVID Injection Toll: December 30, 2022 (substack.com)

How much will it take to change people’s minds? I addressed this in a comment on Substack a few weeks ago. The answer is: no amount of deaths will be enough to change some people’s minds. There are people who wake up, go to sleep, and spend every minute of the day in between nursing a screaming hatred of Trump and his voters. They have concluded somehow that getting additional injections will be the perfect revenge against those subhuman MAGAts (as they like to say).

Moderna CEO: 400% price hike on COVID vaccine “consistent with the value” Moderna is considering raising the price of its COVID-19 vaccine by over 400 percent—from $26 per dose to between $110 and $130 per dose—according to a report by The Wall Street Journal. The revelation that Moderna may match Pfizer's price increase comes just a day after Moderna announced that its COVID-19 vaccine sales in 2022 totaled approximately $18.4 billion.

Now, the media is admitting that yes, perhaps the globalists do have more than just a little influence over governments, social policies, and economic outcomes. But, what the mainstream doesn’t like is the assertion that globalists have nefarious or authoritarian intentions. That’s just crazy tinfoil hat talk, right?

The reason for the narrative shift is obvious. Far too many people witnessed the true globalist agenda in action during the pandemic lockdowns and now they see the conspiracy for what it is.

 

 

OUR POLITICAL THEATER

Let’s take them chronologically. The so-called visit to the Border was a choreographed three hours to appease the demands of the Republicans while keeping the mainstream media away from the actual crisis. Joe traveled to El Paso, where the city officials swept the homeless from the streets to allow Biden to walk through downtown without tripping over the usual homeless illegals that generally live on the sidewalks. He then ventured to the bridge which connects Mexico with El Paso. This location is an actual port of entry, so of course, Joe saw no migrants crossing the Rio Grande. He could have gone a half mile either east or west of El Paso and seen what we see every day; hundreds of illegals from 160 different countries entering and dispersing throughout America.

Ironically, his team chose the backdrop of the Trump Wall in El Paso for a Biden video walking with Border Agents. This is the same wall that Biden and his supporters want to be taken down. One last thing about Biden’s visit. Governor Abbott arrived at the airport last minute to meet the President, but Biden did not invite the Senators or any of the Congressmen from the area to join him. Biden and his team wanted as sterile an environment as they could show to the American people. This three hour pass through was purely a photo op for 2024.

Crisis, what crisis? El Paso clears migrant camps ahead of Biden's first trip to border on Sunday as frustrated agents say numbers always fall in January and he might as well have gone to Des Moines.

I wonder if the FBI will conduct raids on FJB’s home? And rifle through DrShrill’s underwear?

Biden's New Plan would set 30,000 Illegal Aliens Free Per Month

Brandon Adminstration Admits Keystone Cancellation Cost Tens of Thousands of Jobs. 

The premier of Alberta, Canada’s biggest oil producing province, said that Biden’s decision to cancel the pipeline would kill thousands of union labor jobs in both Canada and the United States, while making America more dependent on foreign “dictatorships” for its energy needs. 

The Pentagon even with having "misplaced" 61% of its assets, the Comptroller couldn't bring himself to admit that they failed.

“I would not say that we flunked. The process is important for us to do, and it is making us get better. It is not making us get better as fast as we want,” [McCord] said.

The Defense Department has failed its fifth-ever audit, unable to account for more than half of its assets, but the effort is being viewed as a “teachable moment,” according to its chief financial officer. 

After 1,600 auditors combed through DOD’s $3.5 trillion in assets and $3.7 trillion in liabilities, officials found that the department couldn’t account for about 61 percent of its assets, Pentagon Comptroller Mike McCord told reporters on Tuesday.

Biden and his Demos based their midterm strategy on “protecting democracy” against Trump and his MAGA extremists. In other words, the masters of hate and fear ran on their “hate and fear Trump” model, and they succeeded in holding back a red wave in a year that all indications supported it — except for the Trump factor. Turns out it was a brilliant strategy.

MAGA - The election of Trump itself did not create the hate – the epidemic of cognitive dissonance on the Left we branded as Trump Derangement Syndrome – his election revealed that hate and fear.

Trump triggered primarily suburban “white privilege” Democrats, among them wealthy elitists who already harbor a fear of grassroots American Patriots, those Hillary Clinton described as “deplorables.”

But the divisive manifestation of Trump’s unmitigated egomaniacal narcissism certainly exacerbated the hate and fear.

This is precisely why Biden delivered two very high-profile speeches before the election about “protecting democracy” from the MAGA threat. “Protecting democracy” has become code for hate and fear Trump, as has the “MAGA Republican threat.”

Neither of those speeches mentioned a single word about inflation, crime, immigration, or any other voter concerns. Democrat pollsters knew exactly what “fear and hate Trump” buttons to push to keep their voters on the plantation months ahead of the first ballots being mailed. And that is precisely why Biden’s handlers sent him out with the “democracy” message. As for Republicans, apparently running against Biden’s record was not a winning strategy. Biden’s ineptitude was already deeply discounted by Demo voters, baked into the electoral cake. (Clearly, Biden so lowered the mental acuity bar for Democrats that even an imbecilic, tatted-up thug like John Fetterman prevailed in Pennsylvania.)

Like it or not, Trump is the lightning rod for all the deeply seated fear and hatred on the Left, and it is undeniably an earned and enduring legacy that he will not shake off.

Demos will run and win on the same hate-Trump strategy in 2024, when they will have substantially more Senate seats at risk. Of the 33 Class 1 Senate seats on the ballot, there will be 21 Democrats and two independents who caucus with Senate Democrats. If Trump is in, Demos will win.

Our name gives you a clue as to what a Republic is. We are the United States of America. We are a collection of fifty individual states, each having its own government, and combined, all fifty participate in an election every four years to elect a President. Based on the two Senators combined with the number of Representatives a state has, it gives them the number of votes they cast in the Electoral College that decides our President. My small state of New Hampshire has two Representatives and, therefore, four Electoral College votes. California, on the other end of the spectrum, has fifty-five votes. More people equates to more votes. But the Electoral College makes my vote as important as someone voting in San Francisco. There are a total of 538 electoral votes. Majority needed to elect the President and vice president: 270.

If the country did away with the Electoral College and went with a popular vote count, the high-population areas like California and New York would dictate to the country who should sit in the White House. Since these areas are typically Liberal and vote as such, it would benefit Democrats to change the system. We on the Right can never let that happen.

Distinguishing legitimate government from tyranny.

1. Rule of Law vs. Rule of Man: Legitimate government involves “making laws” and “the execution of such laws.” Tyranny is “When the governor, however intitled, makes not the law, but his will, the rule…” In modern terminology, this is the distinction between “the rule of law” and “the rule of man.”
2. Public Good vs. Private Advantage: Legitimate government is “only for the public good.” Tyranny is the use of power “not for the good of those who are under it, but for his own private separate advantage.”
3. Rights Protection vs. Rights Non-Protection: And the whole purpose of government, according to Locke, is the protection of “rights”/“property,” by which he means rightful ownership of possessions as well as one’s own body. Thus, tyranny is when a ruler’s “commands and actions are not directed to the preservation of the properties of his people, but the satisfaction of his own ambition, revenge, covetousness, or any other irregular passion.”

US Congress, the Peoples House Proves It’s a Rigged, Uniparty, Dictatorship

President Biden has finally found a solution to address the surge in illegal crossings at the southern border: tell the tens of thousands of aliens unlawfully entering the United States from Mexico that they can come to America “legally” if they instead fly to a port-of-entry in the interior of the country.

Seriously, for all the Biden administration’s spin, that’s his plan — and it is illegal.

Biden Admin Considering Ban on Gas Stoves: Feds say Gas Stoves Racist & Hurt Minorities! Last year, democrats started pushing the theory that gas stoves can somehow make COVID even worse. Seriously, again this isn’t a parody! The media actually started running articles with titles like “If This Is in Your Kitchen, Your COVID Death Risk May Be Even Higher”

If you were wondering why Joe Biden chose this moment to go after your gas stove, yesterday’s report from The Wall Street Journal provides a clue: “U.S. production of natural gas … has hit record levels.” President Green Energy and his ecofascist allies can’t have that.

The Biden administration’s Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has teased that it could soon decide to ban gas stoves. “This is a hidden hazard,” explained CPSC Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. “Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned.”

 

Of those polled, 22 percent say Democrats are our greatest threat. That would include people like myself, who believe the Dems have become the American communists -- determined to destroy everything that makes us exceptional -- as a necessary measure to marshal in a socialist utopia.

Another 17 percent say that Republicans are the greatest threat. Those would be our fellow citizens who have bought Biden’s semi-fascist baloney and Merrick Garland’s “white supremacist” propaganda. So much for returning comity and normalcy to the American conversation.

The Right Sees a Border Crisis; The Left Sees a Border Opportunity  Incredibly, the left complained that Biden wasn’t doing enough for immigrants, while the right questioned what was being done to help the American people and restore rule of law.

Biden has committed more crimes against the American people than any other President, observes David Horowitz. In 2022 alone the open border alone has resulted in 110,000 deaths from fentanyl and 33,000 murders by illegal aliens.

BIDEN-APPROVED INFRASTRUCTURE BILL: MANDATED KILL SWITCHES COMING TO CARS BY 2026

When Joe Biden killed the Keystone XL Pipeline as one of his first acts upon taking office, Republicans loudly objected that doing so would damage the American economy and cost thousands of jobs, even as the U.S. was struggling to overcome a global pandemic. Biden, bowing to the radical environmentalist Left, eliminated the pipeline with the stroke of a pen, while ridiculously asserting that any jobs lost would only be temporary and that the green energy sector would quickly make up the difference. Now, two years later, Biden’s Department of Energy is admitting that those jobs lost ended up being more significant and the economic cost higher than Biden had so rosily asserted at the time. The DOE found that killing Keystone XL resulted in 59,000 lost jobs and cost the U.S. economy $9.6 billion in growth. “To make matters worse,” observed Senator Jim Risch (R-ID), “his decision moved the U.S. further away from energy independence and lower gas prices at a time when inflation and gas prices are drastically impacting Americans’ pocketbooks.” Americans are still experiencing the negative consequences of Biden’s killing of Keystone, which made Russia’s invasion of Ukraine that much more costly for the U.S. With Donald Trump, the country finally enjoyed energy independence, but Biden foolishly decided to reverse course on that stunning success. 

Keeping planes in the air has taken a back seat at the Federal Aviation Administration as the agency pivots its focus to diversity, equity, and inclusion under the leadership of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
