Is America going “Bananas?”

I would say there is no doubt that some of our fellow Americans are losing it, but that’s not what we’re talking about here.

In June of 2020, Author Robin Wright asked, for “The New Yorker,” no less, “Is America Becoming a Banana Republic?”

I don’t think she knew at the time how prophetic that question would be.

“In the early nineteen-hundreds, the American writer O. Henry coined the term “banana republic” in a series of short stories…”

“The term, which originally referred to a politically unstable country run by a dictator and his cronies…, took on a life of its own.”

“Over the past century, “banana republic” has evolved to mean any country (with or without bananas) that has a ruthless, corrupt, or just plain ‘loopy’ leader who relies on the military [in our case the state police, the DOJ and the FBI, with the cooperation of some kangaroo courts thrown in there] and destroys state institutions…”

“During the heated Presidential campaign of 2016, the term made its way into mainstream American politics, often glibly. President Trump invoked it in October, 2016. ‘This election will determine whether we remain a free country in the truest sense of the word or we become a corrupt banana republic controlled by large donors and foreign governments,’ he told a cheering crowd in Florida.”

Truer words were never spoken.

“The House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi (at the time), the third most powerful politician in the land, described the experience of her daughter, a filmmaker and journalist, when men in fatigues used chemical agents and body armor to force her fellow peaceful protesters aside so Trump could walk to St. John’s Church, on Monday night, for a fleeting photo op where he waved the Bible. On Wednesday, Pelosi bluntly asked, on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe,’ ‘What is this, a banana republic?’”

Ha! Just wait Nancy! You will show us all what kind of banana republic we have, when you surround the capitol with fencing and armed reservists to supposedly protect yourselves from your own concocted “insurrection!”

“Later that day, James Mattis, the former Defense Secretary, issued a scathing rebuke of President Trump, his former boss.”

Boy, what a disappointment Mattis turned out to be. A real sell-out. And that’s coming from a marine myself.

“Mattis described being ‘angry and appalled’ at the use of the U.S. military against the American people.”

Again, hang onto your hat General Mattis, because you ain’t seen nothing yet!

‘“When I joined the military, some fifty years ago, I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution. Never did I dream that troops taking that same oath would be ordered under any circumstance to violate the Constitutional rights of their fellow citizens, much less to provide a bizarre photo op for the elected commander-in-chief, with military leadership standing alongside,” he said, in a statement to The Atlantic.”

Like I said, you ain’t seen nothing yet, General! Talk about a “bizarre photo op!” The democrat contrived January 6^th “insurrection” was one long running “bizarre photo op!

“Pictures of National Guard troops arrayed in tight rows on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, a site that symbolizes reconciliation and healing after our Civil War, clad in camouflage, flak jackets, and body armor, added to the sense that America is in the midst of a defining national crisis. Mattis raged at the President personally, accusing him of deliberately trying to divide the country.”

Ha! That’s a real hoot!

‘“We know that we are better than the abuse of executive authority that we witnessed in Lafayette Square,’ he said. He went one big step further, demanding that ‘those in office who would make a mockery of our Constitution’ must be held accountable.”

Yes. We’re all waiting for Pelosi and the democrats to be held responsible for the grand January 6^th charade.

“Scholars and current and former policymakers say that Trump’s historical legacy increasingly appears to be the undoing of American democracy. ‘We are far too complacent about the durability of our system,’ Robert Kagan, a historian at the Brookings Institution and the author of ‘The Jungle Grows Back: America and Our Imperiled World,’ told me (Seems like kind of a racist title, if you ask me.). ‘So much of what makes our system work is the general fidelity to a democratic ethos on the part of everybody involved.’”

Bingo!

We are all currently witnessing the democrats making their best efforts to “undo American democracy.”

“Trump has proved that ‘our system has within it the capacity to be subverted,’ Kagan said. The brilliance of America’s Founders was designing a constitution with checks and balances to ensure that the instruments of power served the people and the Constitution, and limited the Presidency. ‘The founders hoped that Congress would be jealous of its prerogatives and the independent judiciary would be jealous of its role, and that each actor would have a certain devotion to the republican spirit, little “R,” and defend it against potential threats from a President more concerned for his own interests than the rights of the general population,’ Kagan said. ‘The amazing thing is that, throughout our history, that really has sort of been the case.’ No longer, he added. At the direction of President Trump, the core institutions that once insured the daily functions of the state and the peaceful transition of leadership have been seriously eroded.”

Wow.

Reading all of this two years later, it’s uncanny how all of these democrat tools and elitists are ending up describing themselves and their anti-American democrat friends!

“At the Department of Justice [inJustice], Attorney General William Barr overrode his own prosecutors in the sentencing of Roger Stone, a Trump ally. He urged that charges against Michael Flynn, Trump’s first short-lived national security adviser, be dropped, even though Flynn twice pleaded guilty to lying to the F.B.I. In the case of Paul Manafort, Trump’s former campaign manager, the President launched a Twitter tirade against Judge Amy Berman Jackson, including the false charge, ‘Is this the Judge that put Paul Manafort in SOLITARY CONFINEMENT, something that not even mobster Al Capone had to endure?’ Corrections officials, not judges, determine how and where prisoners are held. ‘If they can do that to protect the President’s friends, they can also be used against the President’s enemies,’ Kagan said.”

Oh, how we see that now!

You see, you can’t lie to the FBI, unless you’re a democrat. There are definitely two completely separate sets of rules, depending on where your politics lie.

‘“The clock is ticking on the future of America’s democracy,’ David Blight, a civil-war historian at Yale, told me. ‘This unrest, it’s more than unrest, it’s a revolt, is truly astonishing.’ In nine days, protesters have taken to the streets in three hundred and eighty cities over the death of George Floyd. ‘We have to find some way for electoral politics, ending just five months from now, to harness this, or where does it go? What’s left?’ He compared the deep political dysfunction in Washington in 2020 to the eighteen-fifties, when U.S. institutions were torn apart and the country collapsed in disunion. ‘There was no center left by 1860,’ he said. To answer Pelosi’s question, Blight said, ‘We’re not quite there yet. But we may be on the verge of becoming a banana republic. It was correct of her to ask the question.’”

Wow, was it ever. In fact, she was foreshadowing things to come, thanks to her and her democrat co-conspirators.

We have gone from finding the person who committed a crime, to finding a crime based on the person, or political target.

Now, that’s a real indicator of a “banana republic.”

It looks like we’ll have front row seats to the democrats’ legal circus, regarding former President Trump, for quite a while here, all while the “Biden crime family” is given a pass after pass from the Department of inJustice, and its resident treasonist in charge, Merrick Garland.

We’ve got banana republics, monkey business, and kangaroo courts! The democrats have created a real zoo out here!

Stay tuned.

“We (I) Hold These Truths to be Self Evident”

The democrats don’t deal in truths. They deal in a series of power hungry charades.

There is a God.

And if God exists, so does Satan.

We see evidence of God and Satan around us every day.

An abortion takes the life of an innocent human being.

Those who promote abortions are puppets of the Devil.

Women who have had a change of heart about abortion deserve our love and prayers, and the knowledge that God and their unborn child has already forgiven them and loves them.

We are all human. We all have sinned. We all have fallen short of the glory of God.

“If you’re going through hell, just keep moving. You might get out before the Devil even knows you’re there.”

It is true that money (which equates to power) is the root of all evil.

Sex is not far behind money. Sexual deviancy (Pedophilia in particular) needs to be crushed and eradicated like the cultural cancer it is.

Crude oil IS NOT a product of long dead dinosaurs and animals. It is a natural product of the Earth, and we will not run out of it.

Elite Climate alarmists don’t really think they can change our climate, while their foolish followers believe they can.

Today’s democrats would have supported the British in The Revolutionary War.

Today’s democrats have more in common with Hitler and the Nazis than the allied countries that opposed him at the time.

John F. Kennedy’s assassination was orchestrated by elements within our own government, and then covered up by elements within our own government. Specifically the CIA, LBJ, and other cooperative establishment politicians and bureaucrats. And you can probably say that for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. as well.

Donald Trump winning the 2016 presidential election over Hillary Clinton caught the democrats completely off guard. They would not allow this scenario to happen again, by any means.

Joe Biden did not legitimately win the 2020 presidential election.

The COVID-19 virus was developed in a Chinese lab, with the help of American funding, to be released into the world, by global fascist forces, when needed to mitigate a threat to their power and control, namely President Trump.

Dogs are more loyal and loving than most people.

The United States has seen its last free and fair national election, relatively speaking, back in 2016.

Any government entity distinguished by three letters, four in some cases, (eg: DOJ, FBI, CIA, IRS) are corrupt and politically weaponized beyond your wildest imagination.

Jeffrey Epstein DID NOT commit suicide, nor did Vince Foster. I’m sorry if some of you may need to look Vince Foster up.

Our government is currently run by unelected bureaucrats (The Swamp), not our elected representatives.

Any topic the corrupt DOJ or FBI does not want to talk about is described as “an ongoing investigation.”

It is unethical and immoral for our government to borrow money in order to give it away, especially to foreign countries, leaving the American taxpayers with the burden of paying this money back.

People coming into our country illegally should not get preferential treatment over our military veterans and current citizens.

Our founding fathers meant the “free press” to watchdogs over our politicians and our government, not propagandist lapdogs.

Think about how ignorant and ill-informed the average American is, then understand that half of all Americans are more ignorant and ill-informed than that.

We should all support our police, but we all have also seen how quickly the police can flip from crime fighters and protectors to political mandate enforcers and adversaries of our Constitutional freedoms.

Humans, generally, don’t handle freedom well. That’s why, sadly, America was doomed from the start.

We should all learn how to speak Chinese.

Thank you, MrEricksonRules.

The Traitorous “Gang of 18” Republican Senators!

Yes, traitorous!

Traitorous in the sense that we were implored to support republicans in the 2022 elections to prevent exactly what they ended up voting for.

I guess the results of the 2022 midterms reflected the support the republican senate candidates deserved.

At least with the democrats, we know where they stand.

The “Gang of 18” republican senators can all be rightfully described as “snakes in the grass” sell-outs!

All republican politicians will end up paying the price for The Gang of 18. Mark my words. The republicans’ contribution revenue stream has now officially dried up.

According to Anna Skinner, reporting for Newsweek, “The Senate voted to pass a $1.66 trillion omnibus spending bill Thursday afternoon with only a day remaining before a deadline that could partially shut down the government.”

The shutting down of our government, even a partial shutdown, would be the best thing that could happen for our country.

“Eighteen Republicans joined all 48 Democrats and two independents [“Independents in name only!] in passing the bill, which must still pass through the House before it arrives on President Joe Biden’s desk to be signed into law. The final vote was 68-29.”

“If approved [by The House of Representatives], [and it was] the bill will extend government funding through September 30, 2023. It had been delayed for weeks as lawmakers argued over its proposals, which included funding around immigration, emergency disaster assistance and military aid to Ukraine.”

Now, even after this bill’s passage, they are still writing-in portions of the bill. It’s the democrats’ version of a late night voting dump.

“Before the Senate voted, former President Donald Trump slammed members of the Republican party for their potential help in passing the bill in a video message posted to Truth Social. Trump specifically targeted Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell [and rightfully so], who voted in favor of the bill.”

“Trump had urged all members of his party to vote against the bill and called the bill a ‘disaster’ for the Republican Party since Republican senators could have stopped it. Trump also criticized Democrats for pushing the bill through Congress before Republicans take control of the House in the New Year.”

“However, McConnell thought the bill was a win for Republicans because it increased the nation’s defense budget by nearly 10 percent, according to an article by The Hill. Nondefense and nonveteran spending received a more than 5 percent bump, totaling $772 billion.”

‘“The world’s greatest military will get the funding increase that it needs, outpacing inflation. Meanwhile, nondefense, nonveterans spending will come in below the rate of inflation, for a real-dollar cut,’ McConnell said on the Senate floor, according to The Hill.”

“If it is signed into law [and it will be], the bill will direct $19.8 billion toward Ukraine and NATO military aid and an additional $12.9 billion to help the Ukrainian economy as it battles through the Russia-Ukraine war, The Hill added.”

“The House is expected to vote on the bill Thursday night or Friday morning. Punchbowl News founder Jake Sherman tweeted that since the Senate added several items to the bill, it could ‘take a while to process and get to the House.’”

They did vote on the bill, and they passed it, and it didn’t take very long at all. It’s called “take the money and run.”

Here is a full list of Republican senators [traitors] who voted in favor of the bill (in alphabetical order):

Roy Blunt (Missouri)

John Boozman (Arkansas)

Shelley Capito (West Virginia)

Susan Collins (Maine)

John Cornyn (Texas)

Tom Cotton (Arkansas)

Lindsey Graham (South Carolina)

Jim Inhofe (Oklahoma)

Mitch McConnell (Kentucky)

Jerry Moran (Kansas)

Lisa Murkowski (Alaska)

Rob Portman (Ohio)

Mitt Romney (Utah)

Mike Rounds (South Dakota)

Richard Shelby (Alabama)

John Thune (South Dakota)

Roger Wicker (Mississippi)

Todd Young (Indiana)

This “Gang of 18” should go down in infamy, regarding their unnecessary capitulation to the democrats, and their disregard of their constituents and conservative Americans everywhere.

From the mouth of liberal propaganda news headquarters itself, CNN, we hear some of the lowlights of the omnibus bill.

Tami Luhby and Katie Lobosco report for CNN, “What’s in the massive government funding bill? Some [most, if not all] Congress members may not even know.”

And that’s another thing. Who actually wrote-up this 4,000 plus page behemoth of a bill?

And shouldn’t the actual author(s) be published on the bill?

Just sayin’.

“The House passed a $1.7 trillion yearlong federal government spending bill on Friday, paving the way for it to be signed into law by President Joe Biden.”

“The legislation includes $772.5 billion for nondefense discretionary programs and $858 billion in defense funding, according to a bill summary from Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy, chair of the Senate Committee on Appropriations. That would represent an increase in spending in both areas for fiscal year 2023.”

A few hundred billion dollars here, and a few hundred billion dollars there, and pretty soon we’re talking about some real money!

“The sweeping package includes roughly $45 billion in emergency assistance to Ukraine and NATO allies, and an overhaul of the electoral vote-counting law…”

“It also would provide a boost in spending for disaster aid [But not for Florida hurricane relief, however. Hmmm, I wonder why?]…, and additional funds for the US Capitol Police, according to Leahy’s summary and one from Sen. Richard ‘Benedict Arnold’ Shelby of Alabama, the top Republican on the Senate Appropriations Committee.”

So, democrat politicians (and The Gang of 18) want the police defunded for us, but additionally funded for them. Isn’t that special?

“And the legislation contains several major Medicaid provisions, particularly one that could disenroll up to 19 million people from the nation’s health insurance program for low-income Americans.”

Well, isn’t that wonderful as well?

“However, the bill, which runs more than 4,000 pages [more than three times the size of The Bible], left out several measures that some lawmakers had fought to include. An expansion of the child tax credit, as well as multiple other corporate and individual tax breaks, did not make it into the final bill.”

That’s odd.

“The spending bill, which would keep the government operating through September, the end of the fiscal year, is the product of lengthy negotiations between top congressional Democrats and Republicans.”

Ahh, yes…, we love those “top congressional democrats and republicans!” Especially our top “bend over” republican snakes in the grass!

“Here’s what’s in the bill [some of the lowlights]:”

“More aid for Ukraine: The spending bill would provide roughly $45 billion to help support Ukraine’s efforts to defend itself against Russia’s attack.”

We surely can’t leave Ukraine off of the gravy train.

“Also, it would provide $13 billion for economic support to the Ukrainian government. Other funds would address humanitarian and infrastructure needs…”

Our own economy and humanitarian, and infrastructure needs are all good here, so…

“Emergency disaster assistance: The bill would appropriate more than $38 billion in emergency funding to help Americans in the west and southeast affected by recent natural disasters, including tornadoes, hurricanes, flooding and wildfires.”

Like I mentioned earlier, Florida hurricane relief is not included here for some reason. I wonder why that would be?

“Overhaul of the electoral vote-counting law: A provision in the legislation aims at making it harder to overturn a certified presidential election, the first legislative response to the US Capitol insurrection and then-President Donald Trump’s campaign to stay in power despite his loss in 2020. The legislation would clarify the vice president’s role while overseeing the certification of the electoral result to be completely ceremonial.”

This is the “how dare you attempt to question our illegitimate election results” portion of the program.

“Funding for January 6 attack prosecutions: The bill would provide $2.6 billion for US Attorneys, which would include funding efforts “to further support prosecutions related to the January 6 attack on the Capitol and domestic terrorism cases,” according to a fact sheet from the House Appropriations Committee.”

“Domestic terrorists” as in concerned parents at school board meetings?

And would that “further support of prosecutions related to January 6” include Nancy Pelosi and all of her FBI co-conspirators?

“The package also gives $11.3 billion to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, including for efforts to investigate extremist violence and domestic terrorism. The funding measures are part of nearly $39 billion that would be for the Justice Department.”

We can’t neglect the support for our politically weaponized versions of our own Gestapo and KGB, can we?

“Changes to Medicaid and other health care programs: The spending bill would phase out the requirement that prevented states from disenrolling Medicaid recipients…”

Hmmm, seems legit.

“Under the spending bill, states would be able to start evaluating Medicaid enrollees’ eligibility and terminating their coverage as of April 1.”

Those damn Medicaid enrollees, wanting to be all heathy and stuff!

“Up to 19 million people could lose their Medicaid benefits, according to estimates, though many would be eligible for other coverage.”

Exactly what “other coverage” would that be?

Maybe we’ll get the special kind of coverage that Congress enjoys instead! Ya, that must be it!

“Plus, the package would provide more money for the National Institutes of Health [NIH] and the Centers for Disease Control…”

Oh, goodie! More money for the political, fake science, “doctors” to promote liberal control policies, propaganda, and out and out lies.

“It would include nearly $53 billion to address higher inflation [by actually increasing inflation] and $2.7 billion, a 25% increase, to support critical services and housing assistance for veterans and their families.”

I would really like to know exactly how this money will “support critical services” and “housing assistance.”

Why do I think we would be way, way better served by just turning this money over directly to an organization like Tunnels to Towers or Wounded Warrior Project?

“The bill would also help families who have had their food stamp benefits stolen since October 1 through what’s known as ‘SNAP skimming. It would provide them with retroactive federal reimbursement of the funds, which criminals steal by attaching devices to point-of-sale machines or PIN pads to get card numbers and other information from electronic benefits transfer cards.”

Say what? Is this really that big of a thing? I’m sure it would be hilarious to see exactly how this would be processed and administered. Why do I think the criminal will find a way to double dip on the skimming and the reimbursement? Just a wild, but educated, guess.

“Help to pay utility bills: The bill would provide $5 billion for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program. Combined with the $1 billion contained in the earlier continuing resolution, this would be the largest regular appropriation for the program, according to the National Energy Assistance Directors Association. Home heating and cooling costs, and the applications for federal aid in paying the bills have soared this year.”

Here’s an idea! Why not just reverse some of the idiotic democrat anti-energy policy, and nip this in the bud, so people won’t need assistance to begin with? Of course, with that scenario, people would be less dependent on government, and we can’t have that!

“Additional funding for the US Capitol Police: The bill would provide an additional $132 million for the Capitol Police for a total of nearly $735 million. It would allow the department to hire up to 137 sworn officers and 123 support and civilian personnel, bringing the force to a projected level of 2,126 sworn officers and 567 civilians.”

As I mentioned earlier, democrat politicians (and The Gang of 18) want the police defunded for us, but additionally funded for them. They require 2,700 people to protect 635 representatives? That’s roughly four people for every representative. Boy, they must really be important! On our end of things, we’re lucky to have one police officer for every 300 of us.

“It would also give $2 million to provide off-campus security for lawmakers in response to evolving and growing threats.”

I’m not even sure what to say about this. If I did, it would be nothing good.

“More resources for children’s mental health and for substance abuse: The bill would provide more funds to increase access to mental health services for children and schools. It also would invest more money to address the opioid epidemic and substance use disorder.”

Again, not a bad thing. But while we are allowing tons of drugs to flow over our border every day, it seems like an attempt to additionally fund our missile defense system with fly swatters.

“Investments in homelessness prevention and affordable housing: The legislation would provide $3.6 billion for homeless assistance grants, a 13% increase. It would serve more than 1 million people experiencing homelessness.”

Oh, yeah! Because these current homelessness prevention programs are working so well!

“The package also would funnel nearly $6.4 billion to the Community Development Block Grant formula program and related local economic and community development projects that benefit low and moderate income areas and people, an increase of almost $1.6 billion.”

Another stupid and wasteful program that will just continue to line the pockets of people who are talking a good game, but actually doing nothing to help these low income areas.

For a good example of these wonderfully wasteful programs, please let me refer you to one of my prior blogs:

“Sleepless in Seattle?” No…, homeless in Seattle.

“More support for the environment: The package would provide an additional $576 million for the Environmental Protection Agency [EPA], bringing its funding up to $10.1 billion.”

More increased funding for a government agency with way too much uncontrolled power as it is.

Let me just add that all of the alphabet of government agencies, with all of their unelected Nazi wannabes, are up to no good, and are all involved in only controlling us more. That would include, for starters, in no particular order, the IRS, NSA, NIH, CDC, DHS, DEA, FBI, CIA, EPA, DOE, FCC, FEC, NRC, and the DOJ. And like I said, this is a list just for starters.

In addition, we see funding for:

A Michelle Obama “trail” for $3.6 million,

An LGBTQ museum in New York City for $3 million,

$410 million to secure foreign borders, with nothing to secure our own borders,

$7.5 million to study the “domestic radicalization phenomenon,” whatever that means. Since they feel it is a “radicalization,” I can only assume it is a study to target and minimalize normal, everyday, patriotic citizens.

And, $200 million for something called the “Gender equity and Equality Action Fund.” Here, again, I’d like to see an actual accounting of where this money is going, and how it is actually being used.

And there is more disgusting wasteful spending we will hear about as people continue to dissect this monstrosity of a bill.

Oh, and I forgot to mention they threw in a 16.5% raise for themselves. How’s that for a cherry on top?!

Thank you “Gang of 18” for your irresponsible and unexplainable support of the democrats and their continued degradation of our great country. You have officially become heroes of “the swamp,” and newly minted members of “the dark side.”

“Weaken America First” is the Democrats’ Goal

According to Newt Gingrich, former Congressman from Georgia, and Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives from 1995-1999, for Fox News, “Biden, Democrats make every decision based on how it impacts America and always chose what hurts the most.”

“When Sean Hannity asked me why President Joe Biden would favor buying oil and gas from Venezuela over producing oil and gas in Texas, Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, Louisiana or North Dakota, something clicked in my thinking.”

Something “clicked” for me as well, although for me it “clicked” a couple of years ago. So, welcome to the party Newt, although you’re quite late.

My prior thinking was that democrats were misguided, foolish, and/or stupid, but then I came to realize the democrats’ (at least the ruling class of democrats) anti-America actions were calculated and evil, while the majority of their followers were misguided, foolish, and/or stupid, although we all know that ignorance is no excuse in the end.

Newt continues, “I was reminded of the amazing speech United Nations Ambassador Jeane Kirkpatrick gave at the 1984 Republican Convention, when she described the ‘blame-America-first Democrats.’”

“I suddenly realized the common thread of Biden administration policies at home and abroad is to weaken America.”

Ya think, Newt?!

Is this why it seems the republicans are always a day late and a dollar short?

“Think about the administration’s range of choices and ask yourself: Which ones would strengthen America, and which ones would weaken it?”

“In Afghanistan, Biden could have followed the advice of [some of] the professional military and withdrawn in a calm and orderly manner. This would have led to no loss of life, no abandonment of equipment, and no sense of humiliating failure. It would have made America stronger.”

“Instead, the Biden administration overruled the military, abandoned billions in equipment, fled Afghanistan in chaos [and humiliation], sacrificed 13 young Americans [soldiers], and abandoned thousands of Americans and tens of thousands of our allies. He chose to weaken America.”

Biden and his administration were then allowed to lie and deny the whole thing, without being held accountable by the fake news media.

“The Biden team could side with the demonstrators in Iran and China who are trying to overthrow dictatorships. Instead, it has made a series of weak, border-line pathetic comments. A strong America would reach out to people striving to be free. A weak America [led by a bought and paid for Joe Biden] kowtows to Xi Jinping and the Chinese communist dictatorship and grovels to the ayatollah and the Iranian tyranny, no matter how much they work against us. Once again, weakening America and strengthening our enemies is the Biden [and the democrats’] model.”

“If the United States had sustained [maintained] [its] energy independence, we would be strengthening our European allies with liquid natural gas. They could ignore Russia’s economic blackmail. A strong America would do just that. Instead, the Biden administration is pleading with the crown prince of Saudi Arabia and exonerating him from the killing of a journalist. All of Biden’s earlier tough language about Saudi Arabia being a ‘pariah state’ has dissolved. All that is left is Biden’s whimpering plea for more Saudi oil to make up for the American oil he has blocked. Again, America is weaker.”

Again, while Biden and his administration were then allowed to lie, deny, spread disinformation about the whole thing, without being held accountable by the fake news media.

“As I mentioned, Kirkpatrick was the first to clearly identify the decay of the Democrats away from strength and realism toward weakness and fantasies. Her 1984 speech captured the trajectory of madness and destruction onto which the Democrats had embarked.”

That’s close to 40 years ago already, and the democrats definitely are living in some sort of sick “fantasy” world.

“She noted that the Democrats at that time had clearly broken from the patriotic traditions of Democrat Presidents Harry Truman, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon Johnson and were on a new, more destructive path. She continued: ‘They said that saving Grenada from terror and totalitarianism was the wrong thing to do, they didn’t blame Cuba or the communists for threatening American students and murdering Grenadians, they blamed the United States instead.’”

“When our Marines, sent to Lebanon on a multinational peacekeeping mission with the consent of the United States Congress, were murdered in their sleep, the ‘blame America first crowd’ didn’t blame the terrorists who murdered the Marines, they blamed the United States.”

“When the Soviet Union walked out of arms control negotiations, and refused even to discuss the issues, the San Francisco Democrats didn’t blame Soviet intransigence. They blamed the United States.”

“When Marxist dictators shoot their way to power in Central America, the San Francisco Democrats don’t blame the guerrillas and their Soviet allies, they blame United States policies…”

“In the last 38 years, ‘blame America first’ has metastasized into ‘weaken America first.’”

“The patriotic courage of Presidents Truman, Kennedy and Johnson has mutated into a steadily weaker and more pathetic foreign and national security policy. It began with President Jimmy Carter and grew steadily worse with Presidents Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Biden.”

Newt’s perspective here is more of an historic one, and one from a world view.

My perspective here is more one of current affairs and current democrat policies, such as:

The promotion of criminal behavior, and the allowance of crime against law-abiding individuals and businesses.

The promotion of and the allowance of illegal immigrants crossing into our country on our southern border.

The promotion of and the allowance of the Mexican drug cartels to carry out their drug trafficking and human trafficking operations.

The creation of record high inflation, and the disinformation and denial of this record inflation.

The systematic destruction of our country’s history.

The promotion of pedophilia as an acceptable life style, and the federal protection of those involved in this lifestyle, regarding Epstein’s client list for example.

The promotion of aborting babies at any time, even after birth!

The weaponization of the DOJ and the FBI against any citizen who dares to disagree with the democrats’ stated goals and narratives.

The attack on fossil fuel production in our country, even though fossil fuels still provide 90-95% of the energy our country requires.

The promotion of Climate Change as a world-ending, human created, problem, and the promotion of Green New Deal policies and laws that would supposedly have some type of positive effect on this supposed problem.

The promotion of pandemic policies, vaccines, and mandates, which had no basis in science, but rather were all politically driven, with no consideration of the well-being of the American people, or the people of the world for that matter.

The coordinated assault on our election systems and procedures.

The degradation of our education system, and the promotion of liberal narrative indoctrination.

Their attacks on our Constitution, particularly the 1^st and 2^nd amendments.

It would seem the democrats certainly have left no stone unturned in their attack on our great country!

I agree with Newt when he says, “Today, the most reliable predictor of Biden administration (or Democrat Party) policy is whether it will strengthen or weaken America. If it will strengthen America, they almost certainly will not do it. If it will weaken America, they almost certainly will.”

There can be no doubt that “Weaken America First” is the Democrats’ Goal.

Thank you, MrEricksonRules.

Conspiracy theorists are having a hard time keeping up!!!

It’s true!!!

Between Tony Bobulisnki revealing the Biden crime family, our government funding the immigrant child trafficking network, Epstein Island, and all of the protected unnamed elite pedophiles who were regular customers, democrat election fraud and improprieties, Covid-19 origin/vaccination/treatment fraud, democrat weaponization of the DOJ and the FBI, and the fraud surrounding “Climate change” and “climate friendly” electric vehicles, it’s a “conspiracy theory” overload!

Oh, wait…, none of these are what you would call “theories” anymore…, they are now well documented and accepted truths!!!

And this list of evilness is only scratching the surface!

Like I said…, it’s getting hard for conspiracy theorists to keep up these days!!!

“Bizarro world” has become the democrats’ real world, and the real world for the rest of us as well for the moment.

“President” Biden and the rest of Satan’s political minions are free to spout any lie they want, and they are left unchallenged by their friends, and co-conspirators, in the democrat propagandist media.

But, thankfully, there is still quite a few of us out here that are still interested in truth, justice, and the American way.

Stay thirsty my friends!

Thank you, MrEricksonRules.

Let’s Go Brandon!!!

Yes, definitely my friends…, let’s go Brandon!

I just filled-up my gas tank at a high of $4.10 a gallon! Well, really $409 and 9/10, but close enough.

But the climbing gas prices are just the tip of the iceberg.

We’ve also seen the abandonment of our energy independence, the perpetuation of COVID anti-science political lies, the Green bad deal, the Afghanistan debacle and embarrassment, the allowance of a crime wave across the nation, the persecution of patriotic parents and Americans in general, and now Ukraine and the possibility of WWIII…, just for starters.

Yes, let’s go Brandon! But, not only “Brandon.”

Let’s go Brandon’s “handlers,” advisors, and policy dictators! Such as Susan Rice, Jake Sullivan, John Kerry, Anthony Fauci, Rochelle Walensky, Kate Bedingfield, and Jen Psaki. You may have to wash your mouth out with soap if actually say their names out loud. Sorry about that.

Let’s go Brandon’s political party, comrades Schumer and Pelosi, all of Brandon’s unelected “swamp monsters” in the DOJ, FBI, DOD, CDC, NIAID, and the NIH, Brandon’s co-conspiracist propaganda media, and all the rest of the anti-American democrat party.

If you were one of the living and valid citizens who actually voted for Sleepy Joe and Cackling Kamala, hopefully you have seen the error in your ways and have fled “the dark side.”

If not, or you choose to perpetuate the anti-American democrat agenda, the let’s go Brandon and you too!

I think that just about covers it.

Stay thirsty for the truth, my friends, and stay strong.

Thank you, MrEricksonRules.

God Bless America!

God bless America, land that I love

Stand beside her and guide her

Through the night with the light from above

From the mountains to the prairies

To the oceans white with foam

God bless America, my home sweet home

Yes, God please continue to bless America…, and we will continue to fight to preserve the greatest, and the freest, country, under God, this world has to offer.

This is just a reminder to those who desire to ruin our great country, that the good people of America are not going to let it happen!

This is a message to Illegitimate Joe Biden, Cackling Kamala Harris, all of the Biden administration liberal hacks, the weaponized Department of (in)Justice, The Federal Bureau of Investigation (the new Gestapo), Dr. Evil…, er, I mean Dr. Fauci and all of his FDA, CDC, and NIAID treasonous accomplices, all of the anti-American democrat (and republican) senators and congress people, all of the swamp monsters who inhabit our federal systems, the complicit and propagandistic fake news media, and all of the liberal democrat puppets out there who either hate America as well, or blindly support all of the above.

Our message is: We know who and what you are. No matter how hard you try to destroy this great nation, the good people of this country will always defy you, and resist you, and stand up for what is right.

No matter how hard you try, we patriots will “stand beside” this “land that we love.” We will not let you succeed.

God bless America.

Thank you, MrEricksonRules.

Whose side are the cops really on?

And, whose side will they be on?

As the United States proceeds down its current path of unprecedented government control, all in the name of virus safety and racial and gender equity…, who is going to enforce (compel compliance of) their fascist agenda?

Who is already enforcing their agenda now?

We here in the US are just beginning to see the cops acting as the long arm of leftist political law.

If you want to see where we are headed, just take a look at Canada and Australia, where their police are arresting pastors for non-compliance to Covid mandates, as well as otherwise law-abiding citizens who have had enough of their government’s overreach.

The only difference between the US and them is our second amendment, and a well-armed citizenry.

Australians have already surrendered their guns, and are now powerless to effectively stand-up to their government…, and Canada is well on its way to following Australia’s example.

The democrats and their relationship with law enforcement is a confused one, a complicated one, and a despicably contrived one.

On one hand the democrats promote the defunding, and even abolishing the police, as we know them. While on the other hand, the DOJ, the FBI, and the Capitol Police have been weaponized to uphold the democrat agenda, and licensed to attack the democrats’ opponents.

And lately, we have seen this utilization of law enforcement on a more local level, when we see local sheriffs in Loudoun County Virginia attacking, wrestling to the ground, and restraining a father, whose middle school daughter was raped in the girl’s restroom, while at school, by a transgender freak who was being protected by the disgustingly liberal school board there…, when, in fact, it is the school board members who should be taken into custody for their complicity in this endangerment of the county’s students.

Let me say that again.

IN FACT, IT IS THE LOUDOUN COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS WHO SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO CUSTODY AND CHARGED FOR THEIR COMPLICITY IN THE ENDANGERMENT OF THE COUNTY’S STUDENTS.

When the hell did this upside down, bizarro world, version of justice become the new norm?!

Our law enforcement is starting to look more and more like the Nazi’s Gestapo.

“Gestapo,” is really the abbreviation of Geheime Staatspolizei (in German: “Secret State Police”), the POLITICAL POLICE of Nazi Germany. The Gestapo ruthlessly eliminated opposition to the Nazis within Germany and its occupied territories and was responsible for the roundup of Jews throughout Europe for deportation to extermination camps.

Please remember that term, POLITICAL POLICE. This is exactly what I am talking about.

Just like the mainstream media has abandoned reporting the truth versus advancing the democrats’ propaganda, our law enforcement will begin to abandon protecting the citizens versus enforcing the democrats’ agenda and ideology.

Aren’t we already seeing concerned parents, who dare question the state’s desire to liberally indoctrinate their children, being characterized as “domestic terrorists?”

And aren’t we already seeing our “president,” “Illegitimate Joe” requesting the DOJ and the FBI be weaponized against these “domestic terrorist” parents who won’t toe the line or drink the liberal Kool-Aide?

Just sayin’.

I have always supported our law enforcement officers, and acknowledge we need them to maintain a civilized society. But on the other hand, we have to be careful to not blindly acquiesce to the democrats’ idea of justice, or their henchmen who enforce it.

Thank you, MrEricksonRules.

Thanks, Joe Biden!

Yes…, thanks, Illegitimate Joe.

Thanks for ruining just about everything we had going in this country, in only your first eight months in office.

That’s pretty impressive…, if your goal is to bring our country to its knees.

It’s actually incredibly disgraceful.

And let’s be absolutely clear…, YOU ARE A DISGRACE.

You are a national embarrassment.

Just to let you know, Joe, the Biden name will now go down in history as being traitorous, treasonous, inept, and just plain evil.

Congratulations.

The Biden name will become synonymous with America’s downfall, or America’s near downfall.

Let’s all hope it’s only the latter.

And to think, all of this damage is being done to our country by virtue of a corrupt and fraudulent election.

What exactly is “all of this damage” you may ask?

I hope you have a little time, because here we go.

Let’s start with energy…, not Sleepy Joe’s lack of it, but energy as in fuel.

In eight short months, “The national average price of regular gas rose to $3.24 a gallon, up from $2.18 a year ago, according to AAA.” And we have gone from energy independence, back to begging OPEC, Iran and Russia for more oil.

The “dumocrats” somehow equate higher gas prices with a step towards addressing climate change, when in all actuality, they’re just taking money out of our pockets at the pump and at the checkout counter, due the increased costs of products getting to the store.

Thanks, “Cognitively challenged” Joe.

Next we have the “immigration” situation at our borders.

The northern border with Canada and the southern border with Mexico are actually closed, to law abiding citizens and law abiding economic activity.

Only illegal immigrants, the drug cartels, and human sex traffickers, are allowed to enter our country unimpeded, at record numbers.

And that’s only the ones we know about.

Rest assured, the numbers of people getting into our country illegally are actually at least twice as high as what is reported.

These hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants will strain our law enforcement, our medical system, our education system, and our economic aid programs, intended for our legal citizens.

Thanks, “Sleepy” Joe.

Then we have the EPIC FAILURE of Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan, which he sees as some sort of success. Let’s recap Biden’s Afghanistan success story.

We ran out of Afghanistan after 20 years there, with our tails between our legs.

We lost the lives of 13 soldiers and hundreds of Afghanis unnecessarily…, then Biden’s boys droned a car full of children in response.

Of all the thousands of people transported out of Afghanistan, only 3% of them were Afghanis who were entitled to leave, based on their service to our troops there.

There are still hundreds of Americans stuck in, the now Taliban controlled, Afghanistan, who Biden left behind, along with the thousands of Afghani people and their families who were told we would take care of them when the time came.

We abandoned $85 billion worth of equipment there, immediately making the Taliban the fifth best equipped army in the world.

That’s a real nice few weeks of work there, “President” Sippy Cup!

Thanks, “Clueless” Joe.

That brings us to the Vaccination mandates of a vaccine that neither actually protects anyone from the virus, nor stops the spreading of the virus.

So, what will these mandates accomplish?

We will have displaced military personnel, displaced health care workers (while in the midst of a so-called pandemic), displaced teachers, and hundreds of professions displacing workers, all while Congress and the CDC, and their staffs get vaccination waivers.

Do you get what’s going on here yet?

Thanks for your inspiring leadership in this area, “Creepy” Joe.

Then we have Joe’s “weaponization” of the DOJ and the FBI against parents who only want to speak out at school board meetings in support of their children!

“President” Biden has asked the DOJ to classify these concerned parents as domestic terrorists, in an attempt to quell their non-compliance.

Have we leap-frogged Russia, in hopes of surpassing China, with this level of government control?

I mean, it is what it is.

Thanks, “Stumbling, fumbling, bumbling” Joe.

Your first eight months in office have been defined by your many anti-American directives, epic failures in foreign policy, along with your constant lying, denying, and your arrogant refusal to face any questioning, even from your own, friendly, fake news, and we only have over three years left to endure.

Again, the Biden name will go down in history as being traitorous, treasonous, painfully inept, and just plain evil.

Congratulations, Illegitimate Joe.

Thank you, MrEricksonRules.

Tyranny Masquerading as a Democracy!

Yes, my friends…, we have reached a point where we have to start calling it like it is, and stop pretending that the democrats have any interest in doing what is best for our country, when in fact they want to destroy our country as it was established under the U.S. Constitution.

Please bear with me as I recap recent events that would support my claim.

First of all, we have lost any semblance of accountability by anyone in government…, at least relating to democrats and the deep state.

We see countless “investigations” but, in the end, no one of any significance ends up being charged or put in jail.

When laws that apply to us do not apply to the ruling class, that is the definition of tyranny.

WHEN YOU CAN CONTROL ELECTIONS YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO OR FEAR THE VOTERS.

As a result, we see no justice. The FBI and the DOJ have become completely politicized. The law is selectively applied based on the party affiliation and ideology of those in question.

Secondly, we are witnessing laws being passed and proposed which are significantly changing the fabric of our country, even though the democrats aren’t anywhere near having a mandate from the voters.

In fact, the Senate is actually tied 50-50, while in Congress, the democrats have a slight advantage of only 220-212.

Again, WHEN YOU CAN CONTROL ELECTIONS YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO OR FEAR THE VOTERS.

Third, we see the Biden administration ignoring laws and imposing orders in order to impose their anti-American agenda. And, of course, the “Justice” system has no problem with this, nor does the mainstream propaganda media.

This is what you get when you cross incompetence, stupidity, ignorance, and evil.

We’ve seen our AWOL Vice President, “cackling” Kamala Harris, who had funded support to bail out Minneapolis rioters, only to see one of her bailed out rioters go on to commit murder. Gee, thanks Kamala. You, of course, carry no responsibility for this. And, of course, you have no comment, and our diligent free press doesn’t care to ask you about it either.

Then we come to the illustrious Army four-star General, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milley. If we can believe the accounts of one of Watergate’s Bob Woodward, the liberals’ supposed journalistic hero, Milley was the one who led a real insurrection against President Trump, by attempting to usurp his authority regarding the handling of the nuclear strike codes, while he conspired with his counterpart in China, telling him he would warn him if President Trump was planning on attacking China, for some reason. Sounds like treason to me. And this guy still has his job? He should be being court martialed as we speak! Although Biden has said he still has complete confidence in him.

We also have the “Justice” department continuing to refuse to name all of the disgusting liberals involved with Jeffrey Epstein on Pedophile Island. How fast would it take them to name conservatives, if they were involved? Just sayin’.

Lastly, we have Dr. Fauci. The guy who repeatedly lied to Congress (which is a crime) and who it has been shown was involved in promoting “gain of function” research, regarding the virus, while managing to use U.S taxpayer money, via a shell game of funding, in Chinese labs.

All of the individuals mentioned here should be in jail, as well as James Comey, Peter Strzok and his girlfriend, Lisa Page, Bill and Hillary Clinton, as well as Hunter Biden, just for starters.
