Who do we become as we get older?

Who do “they” want us to become?   

Excuse me for being a little introspective today, but I recently heard this song again by Supertramp, and it made me think.

Here are the words to the song. What do you think?

“When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful

A miracle, oh, it was beautiful, magical

And all the birds in the trees, well they’d be singing so happily

Oh, joyfully, oh, playfully watching me

But then they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible

Logical, oh, responsible, practical

Then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable

Oh, clinical, oh, intellectual, cynical

There are times when all the world’s asleep

The questions run too deep

For such a simple man

Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned?

I know it sounds absurd

Please tell me who I am

I said, now, watch what you say, they’ll be calling you a radical

A liberal, oh, fanatical, criminal

Oh, won’t you sign up your name? We’d like to feel you’re acceptable

Respectable, oh, presentable, a vegetable

But at night, when all the world’s asleep

The questions run so deep

For such a simple man…”

Life is really fairly simple.

But there are those that love to complicate things for their own benefit. “Those” being the government, elected and unelected, and “the haves.” These people are just interested in protecting their positions, power, and wealth.   

Once we get to a certain age, we don’t have the luxury of being so care free anymore. We have responsibilities, and we are just trying to survive, and give ourselves and our families the best lives we can.

Most of us just want to feel safe and comfortable, but it seems that is too much to ask for now. “They” just can’t help themselves from demanding more, and more, until they ruin it for everyone, including themselves.

And, please be aware about the line that says “they’ll be calling you a liberal,” that conservatives are really the new “liberals,” while the democrats are all about being “the man” now.

Has Congress really been thrown into “Chaos” by Republicans?

First, let’s define “chaos.”

According to dictionary.com, “chaos” means: “A state of utter confusion or disorder; a total lack of organization or order.”

Sooo, just because some republicans have differing ideas and beliefs from other republicans, and some republicans have deemed a change in leadership is necessary, and they have pushed for that change, within the parameters of established processes and congressional procedures, the republicans are deemed to have thrown Congress into a state of “chaos?”

You can read about the democrat approved narrative yourself, as propagandized by NPR (National Public Radio), in this instance, by   Claudia Grisales, Deirdre Walsh, and Lexie Schapitl, when they write, “Fate of House GOP leadership throws Congress into chaos.”

Please note that NPR is a federally funded media outlet. That means WE are paying for the pleasure of having the government spread its propaganda back on us.

Ok, let’s continue with NPR’s take on the whole situation.  

“The U.S. House of Representatives remains virtually frozen as Republican tumult fuels scrambled plans over who could take over leadership of the lower chamber.”

Some would say, myself included, that “the U.S. House of Representatives remaining virtually frozen” would be a step in the right direction.

“Republican members huddled in meeting after meeting on Wednesday with potential candidates for speaker talking to the different factions of the party.”

As if this was somehow a negative attribute of the republicans. Democrats have never “huddled” in any backroom meetings before! Especially regarding a change in their leadership! That would be democrat heresy!

Who believes it’s healthy for everyone associated with a given political party to walk and think and vote in lock-step with every other person, in this case every other representative, of a given political party?

I sincerely hope you’re not nodding or have your hand up.

I think many of us can recall groups of political factions who preferred to walk in lock-step (goosestep) with each other 100% of the time.

‘“There’s scenarios where this could be going on for weeks,’ Rep. Garret Graves, R-La., told reporters steps off the House floor amid the competing meetings.”

And if it does, so what?

“There is a tension between some lawmakers who want a quick election for speaker to move on and those who caution the conference needs to coalesce around someone who can bring all the factions together and avoid another embarrassing debacle on the House floor with multiple rounds of balloting.”

“Embarrassing debacle?”

Really?

Following congressional process and procedure to elect a new speaker of the house is an “embarrassing debacle?”

Maybe to the democrat “goose steppers,” but not the rest of us.  

A “tension between some lawmakers” should be viewed as a natural, and a healthy thing, politically speaking. Who says all factions have to be brought together? Engaging in compromise used to be a huge part of getting things done in government. We have now arrived at a point where a simple majority just shoves what they want down everyone else’s throat.

Steve Scalise, a ranking republican representative from Louisiana, and one of the potentially new speakers, said, ‘“Our strength as a Conference comes from our unity, and we have seen when we unite as a Conference, we can deliver wins for the American people. Now we need to take those unified positions and work to extract conservative wins from the Democrat Senate and White House by leveraging upcoming deadlines. While we need to be realistic about what can be achieved, if we stay united, we can preserve leverage for the House to secure tangible wins in our impending policy fights.’”

What he is talking about is that the facts of the matter are, if the republicans want to accomplish anything, they have to vote in lock-step with each other in order to defeat the democrats, who have already mastered the lock-step routine.

It’s a sad state of affairs, but it is reality.

Proud to be an American?

If you live here in America, are you proud to be an American?

Now, granted, our government, and many of its tentacles, have been behaving very poorly, and anti-American, lately, and doing things that we, and they, should not be proud of, but, overall, as a country, we still have a lot to be proud of.     

If you’re not familiar with the song “Proud to be an American” by Lee Greenwood, here are the lyrics:

“If tomorrow all the things were gone

I worked for all my life

And I had to start again

With just my children and my wife

I thank my lucky stars

To be living here today

‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom

And they can’t take that away

And I’m proud to be an American

Where at least I know I’m free

And I won’t forget the men who died

Who gave that right to me

And I’d gladly stand up next to you

And defend Her still today

‘Cause there ain’t no doubt

I love this land

God Bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota

To the hills of Tennessee

Across the plains of Texas

From sea to shining sea

From Detroit down to Houston

And New York to L.A.

Where’s pride in every American heart

And it’s time we stand and say

That I’m proud to be an American

Where at least I know I’m free

And I won’t forget the men who died

Who gave that right to me

And I’d gladly stand up next to you

And defend Her still today

‘Cause there ain’t no doubt

I love this land

God Bless the U.S.A.”

Sometimes Corruption and Evil Comes Disguised as Inept or Stupid.

It’s absolutely true that “Sometimes Corruption and Evil Comes Disguised as Inept or Stupid,” and we are witnesses to it every single day.

Some of the most malintentioned actions and corrupt policies are perpetrated on us by those who we casually dismiss as unintelligent, ignorant, clueless, and foolish, when in fact these actions and polices are quite calculated and premeditated…, but not by them.

These malintentioned actions and corrupt policies may be enacted by the unintelligent, ignorant, clueless, and foolish, but they are formulated and initiated by people that are very intelligent, although anti-American, anti-freedom, and basically evil in nature.

Perfect examples of this would be illegitimate Joe, cackling Kamala, and John “Uncle Festerman” Fetterman.  

These three would be examples of the unintelligent, ignorant, clueless, and foolish, being controlled by others.

They (the corrupt, anti-American, anti-freedom, and basically evil in nature, puppeteers) don’t particularly care who the president is, who the vice-president is, or who the deciding vote in the senate is, as long as they control the political outcomes by virtue of controlling their positions.

Let’s face it, Joe Biden could care less about racism, the climate, immigrants, our border, the homeless problem, crime, inflation, or anything else really. He is just happy to be enjoying the luxuries and the privilege provided him by being president, while dutifully reading what is supplied to him on a teleprompter or his “cheat sheet” note cards.  

And, Kamala Harris and John Fetterman are just clueless warm bodies…, and I wouldn’t even classify Biden as a warm body at this point.

Biden’s administration is littered with inept puppets throughout his cabinet and throughout the leadership of numerous government agencies.

The Godless democrat “swamp” of corrupt and anti-American bureaucracy is much deeper and more expansive than anyone could ever have imagined.  

Our country is in serious trouble, my friends, and the United States of America, as we have come to know it, may not be around that much longer.

What the end game is for all of these people who run interference for all of this anti-Americanism, is beyond me. And by the time they realize they messed up, it will be too late.

If I was a younger man, I think I’d consider learning how to speak Chinese.

“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.

Is a Rise in Vigilantism on Our Horizon?

I would suggest that “YES,” “A Rise in Vigilantism on Our Horizon.”

How long are law abiding people going to put up with this widespread lawlessness we see every day?

How long is it going to be before people start taking “the law” into their own hands?

How long before it starts looking like the Wild West again?

How long before our cities are run by gangs, and Mob bosses again?

I would contend not very much longer. 

It’s not that the government can’t protect its citizens.

It’s that the government is choosing not to protect its citizens.

By defunding the police, and basically neutering the police, criminals know they have gained the advantage.

By allowing repeat, and repeat, and repeat, and repeat offenders out without bail, when they do manage to get caught, our government chooses the rights of the criminal over the rights of citizens, and the rights of victims.

By choosing to not prosecute, and hold many of these criminals responsible for their actions, the government is promoting lawlessness, while throwing law abiding citizens under the bus.

The only people who are protected are the politicians, government officials, and those who can afford to hire their own private security.

How in the hell did we get to this point?

How long is it going to be before we see groups like The Guardian Angels start operating again, just for starters?

But rest assured, the government will be quick to dole out “justice” to any group interested in real public safety or justice.

We do have a right to defend ourselves…, right?

You would think this would go without saying, but that’s not the case.

While Florida had to make it clear that people have a right to “stand their ground,” in places like New York City we see their laws state that people have a “duty to retreat,” and only defend themselves when there is no other option.

Say what?

I say…, say what?   

We pay quite a bit in taxes for government protection and Safety services. Boy, are we getting ripped-off! We’re not only not being protected, but we are paying for not being protected, while also funding their “injustice” campaign. 

Not only is government not effectively protecting its citizens, the same citizens then have to worry about being prosecuted by that same government when we defend ourselves.

We are truly living in a “Bizarro” world.  

We have already seen occurrences of various groups taking the law into their own hands. And who can blame them?

According to Snopes.com (a well-regarded fact-checking website), and David Mikkelson, “Emerson (Steve Emerson, a terrorism expert) began his set of remarks by claiming a number of Muslim no-go zones existed in areas of the U.S., England, France, and other western countries.”

“According to Emerson, ‘Sharia law’ essentially overrode the laws of the countries in which these said zones were located, and local police avoided interceding in the affected areas.”

That’s a nice way of saying the police were ushered out of these areas whenever they got too close to venturing in.

“Well, these ‘no go zones’ exist not only in France, but they exist throughout Europe. They’re sort of amorphous, they’re not contiguous necessarily, but they’re sort of safe havens and they’re places where the governments like France, Britain, Sweden, and Germany don’t exercise any sovereignty. So you basically have zones where Shariah courts were set up, where Muslim density is very intense, where the police don’t go in, and where it’s basically a separate country almost, a country within a country.”

We saw this especially in the U.S. with the democrat supported Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) zone in Seattle, where local government sanctioned police were not permitted. In most cases, however, these self-governing zones are not so official, or set apart by physical lines of demarcation. These areas are particularly evident in areas of Michigan and Minnesota.    

“Emerson continued by insinuating authorities in areas such as France and the UK denied the existence of ‘no-go’ zones in their countries and claimed the entire city of Birmingham, England, was one such example of a no-go zone in which “non-Muslim” residents were not permitted.”

This reminds me of gang related neighborhoods of the past, with the Italian controlled neighborhoods, the Hispanic controlled neighborhoods, the Black controlled neighborhoods, the Irish controlled neighborhoods, the Asian controlled neighborhoods, etc.

People want to live and work in an environment that at least offers some degree of safety and justice, regardless of who is able to supply it.  

Let me say that again. 

People want to live and work in an environment that at least offers some degree of safety and justice, regardless of who is able to supply it.

Just be aware that the lawless chaos we are starting to experience is just what our government wants, until it gets bad enough that they have to ride in on their white horse and save us all by allowing them to operate without question and without any oversight.  

One day their message, the democrats’ message, will flip overnight from “defund the police” to “submit unconditionally to the police, as long as we control the new “Gestapo” police.”

Hopefully we are able to reign-in the new Nazi-Democrat party before it gets to that point.

Hopefully.

The Media: From Watch Dogs to Lap Dogs!

Yes, my friends…, it’s true.

But first, let’s establish what we’re talking about here.  

Harvard’s “Colonel Watchdog” publication says, “Watchdog journalism is a form of investigative journalism where journalists, authors or publishers of a news publication fact-check and interview political and public figures to increase accountability. Watchdog journalism usually takes on a form of beat reporting about specific aspects and issues.”

Author Thomas Hanitzsch, from his book “Deconstructing Journalism Culture: Toward a Universal Theory,” writes, “In the course of their work, watchdog journalists gather information about wrongdoings of people in power and deliver it to the public, so the public can understand what happens in society and stop wrongdoings. Watchdog journalism is different from propagandist journalists, who often report articles from a government’s perspective. Due to watchdog journalism’s unique features, it also often works as the fourth estate (or the fourth branch of government). The general issues, topics, or scandals that watchdog journalists cover are political corruption and any wrongdoings of people in power such as government officials or corporation executives. One of the important things that watchdog journalists have to do is uncover hidden evidence about wrongdoings.”

According to The Lufkin Daily News, “America’s Founders regarded a free press as so vital to the new nation that they took care to include that right in the First Amendment to the Constitution.”

“The Founders spoke glowingly about the press as a pillar of democracy and guarantor of liberty. Thomas Jefferson, for instance, famously wrote in 1787 that ‘were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.’”

“George Washington framed the issue of free expression in almost apocalyptic terms: ‘If freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.’”

“Yet discussing the free press of their day, the Founders also could often sound like those who are decrying ‘fake news’ in 2020.”

“Under a barrage of criticism from newspapers published by his political opponents, Washington painted journalists as ‘infamous scribblers.’ Benjamin Franklin, himself a very successful newspaper publisher, described the press of his time as a resentful, vicious institution comparable to the Spanish Inquisition.”

“Jefferson frequently condemned the press as passionately as he had advanced their right to publish freely. ‘I deplore … the putrid state into which our newspapers have passed and the malignity, the vulgarity, and mendacious spirit of those who write for them,’ he wrote in 1814. ‘Nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper,’ he complained in a letter to another friend.”

“For good measure he wrote to his ally in Congress, the Massachusetts politician Barnabas Bidwell: ‘As for what is not true, you will always find abundance in the newspapers.’”

“On this Independence Day 244 years later, it’s worth reflecting on the lessons the Founders have for us as we assess the role and the practices of the news media today.”

“The first lesson is that while the nation’s leaders and institutions may chafe under the public criticism that accompanies reporting of their shortcomings, the role of the press in holding those leaders and institutions accountable is indispensable to the workings of a democratic society.”

“Most importantly, the press’ proper role must be recognized by the leaders and institutions being held accountable.”

“As abused as he was by the partisan press, Jefferson nevertheless declared, ‘I am … for freedom of the press, and against all violations of the Constitution to silence by force and not by reason the complaints or criticisms, just or unjust, of our citizens against the conduct of their agents.’”

“Among those slinging partisan unjust criticisms was the newspaper co-founded by James Madison, who reasoned that ‘some degree of abuse is inseparable from the proper use of everything, and in no instance is this more true than in that of the press.’”

“Yet, he went on to argue that trying to regulate the ‘abuse’ of the press threatens to strangle its vitality and utility to a free people: ‘To the press alone, checkered as it is with abuses, the world is indebted for all the triumphs which have been gained by reason and humanity over error and oppression.’”

“And therein lies the most fundamental lesson the Founders have for us in 2020: The press and the government may often have an adversarial relationship — but the government must not attempt to delegitimize the press and its work because they are essential to a free society.”

“Would any of us want to live in a country where the news media isn’t freely allowed to report on the actions of its government? Any harm done by an overreaching press would be nothing compared to a government left unchecked. As much as the news media may rub some the wrong way, it is frightening to think of a society with no free press.”

I think we can all agree that none of us would want to, “live in a country where the news media isn’t freely allowed to report on the actions of its government.”

The problem is, there isn’t much of the media remaining which is actually doing this.

In fact, we see the majority of the “news” media choosing to ignore many stories by partaking in propaganda by omission, like Hillary’s emails, Hillary’s promotion of the Russian hoax against President Trump, Hunter Biden’s escapades along with Illegitimate Joe’s involvement, or the manipulation of the 2020 election, for example, or outrightly promoting false democrat narratives, like the media promoting the Russian hoax against President Trump for over three straight years, along with their daily regurgitation of democrat talking points.  

As much as the Founding Fathers questioned the free press back in their day, I think they would be stunned and greatly alarmed at the role the media is playing with our government, and politics in general, today.

Yes, for the most part, the media in 2022 has completed its evolution from government Watch Dogs to liberal government Lap Dogs.

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

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.

Does your U.S. representative represent you?

In a democratic republic, which is the type of government the U.S. has, our elected state senators and district representatives are supposed to represent the citizens in their state and districts.

Rather than the entire country voting on every issue and law, we elect these representatives to do so on our behalf.

The only problem is, we have many elected officials in government who commonly disregard the people they represent, the people they work for, and vote for things because they feel they know better, they want to draw, what they deem to be, favorable political attention to themselves, or because of “pressure” from their respective political parties.  

I’ve selected four representatives to use as examples.

Donald Trump got 68.62% of the vote in West Virginia, yet, their senator, Joe Manchin votes with the democrats on every issue, including impeachment.  

Donald Trump got 58.13% of the vote in Utah, yet, their senator, Mitt Romney, voted to impeach President Trump, and sides with the democrats quite often.  

Donald Trump got 56.92% of the vote in Montana, yet, their senator, Jon Tester votes with the democrats on every issue, including impeachment. 

Donald Trump got 69.94% of the vote in Wyoming, yet, one of their representatives, Liz Cheney, voted to impeach President Trump, and was very outspoken on the issue.  

Again, these are just the four examples I’ve chosen to use here, but there are more.

Then we have senate “majority” leader, Chuck Schumer, who really doesn’t represent a majority at all, and Speaker Nancy Pelosi, whose democrat party holds the slimmest of majorities in the Congress, pushing radical, totalitarian, legislation, while supposedly representing most Americans, which they don’t.

And we can throw Illegitimate Joe Biden in there, as well, with his signing of radical executive orders, while purporting to desire unity among the American people.

He may want unity, but only on his terms, and only unity with people who will blindly follow his anti-American agenda.

Better said, the anti-American agenda that Illegitimate Joe has been told to follow.

Remember, Joe…, Kamala is waiting in the wings to become the Signer in Chief, should you falter or grow a conscience.  

It is now very apparent that Joe Biden and his administration was only a “trojan horse” for ultra-left-wing policies and ideology.

Hopefully America can survive until the 2022 elections, and then until the elections of 2024.

Totalitarianism in America…, today!

Are you totally sure?

Totally.

It could be characterized as a form of neo-leftist fascism, as well.

According to dictionary.com, totalitarianism means, “A system of government that is centralized and dictatorial and requires complete subservience to the state.”

Starting to sound familiar?

Yael Halon of Fox News reports that, “Ex-Clinton adviser [and ex-Al Gore advisor] [and renowned liberal author], Naomi Wolf, warns US becoming ‘totalitarian state before our eyes under Biden.’”

We really have to give Dr. Naomi Wolf some credit here.

Her books and her concerns about this issue were really born at the end of the George W. Bush’s second term in office, back in 2006. Her warnings and concerns then intensified during the Trump years, as she loyally parroted the false, democrat, anti-conservative, and anti-Trump propaganda.

Again, to her credit, she could not intellectually accept the democrat narrative any longer as she witnessed what was occurring, leading up to the 2020 election, and what has taken place since.

Dr. Wolf has now correctly come to realize IT IS THE DEMOCRATS WHO ARE ATTEMPTING TO ESTABLISH A TOTALITARIAN STATE…, not President Trump, and not the conservatives.

“The author tells ‘Tucker Carlson Tonight’ that Americans must wake up before it is ‘too dangerous to fight back.’”

“Naomi Wolf sounds alarm at the growing power of ‘autocratic tyrants.’ America is becoming a ‘totalitarian state before our eyes’ under President Biden’s leadership, feminist author and former Democratic adviser Naomi Wolf told ‘Tucker Carlson Tonight.’”

“Wolf, who served as an adviser on Bill Clinton’s reelection campaign in 1996, told host Tucker Carlson that in her view, the United States is swiftly ‘moving into a coup situation, a police state’ as a result of Biden’s ongoing coronavirus-related economic shutdowns. Wolf added that she believes the orders are being improperly extended under the ‘guise of a real medical pandemic.’”

‘“That is not a partisan thing,’ Wolf told Carlson. ‘That transcends everything that you and I might disagree or agree on. That should bring together left and right to protect our Constitution.’”

“Wolf has ramped up her warnings against extended lockdowns on Twitter in recent months. In November, the author wrote on Twitter that Biden’s openness to reinstating additional shutdowns made her question her decision to vote for him.”

I’m sure we’ll be hearing shortly that her Twitter account has been suspended, or cancelled altogether. 

‘“The state has now crushed businesses, kept us from gathering in free assembly to worship as the First Amendment provides, is invading our bodies … which is a violation of the Fourth Amendment, restricting movement, fining us in New York state … the violations go on and on,’ she said.”

“The outspoken liberal, who previously authored a book outlining the ten steps that ‘would-be tyrants always take when they want to close down a democracy,’ believes the United States is heading toward what she refers to as ‘step 10.’”

‘“Whether they are on the left or the right, they [totalitarians] do these same ten things,’ Wolf explained, ‘and now we’re at something I never thought I would see in my lifetime … it is step 10 and that is the suspension of the rule of law and that is when you start to be a police state, and we’re here. There is no way around it.’”

“Wolf said she has interviewed U.S. citizens of various backgrounds and political affiliations who are in a state of ‘shock and horror’ as ‘autocratic tyrants at the state and now the national level are creating this kind of merger of corporate power and government power, which is really characteristic of the totalitarian fascism in the ‘20’s,’ she told Carlson.”

‘“They are using that to engage in emergency orders that simply strip us of our rights; rights to property, rights to assembly, rights to worship, all the rights the Constitution guarantees.’”

Dr. wolf also noted during the interview, that nowhere in the Constitution does it say that the rights provided there could be suspended for any reason. 

“Wolf called the United States’ overall response to the coronavirus pandemic ‘completely unprecedented,’ arguing that ‘lockdowns have never been done in society and really, we are turning into a of totalitarian state right before everyone’s eyes.’”

‘“I really hope we wake up quickly,’ she said, ‘because history also shows that it’s a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.’”

Wow…, those are strong words, coming from someone who has been a self-proclaimed liberal for the majority of her life.

And I’m sure she still thinks of herself as a liberal, although not a “liberal” with totalitarian ambitions.   

In her book “The End of America: Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot,” published in 2007, Wolf takes a historical look at the rise of fascism, outlining 10 steps necessary for a fascist group (or government) to destroy the democratic character of a nation-state. The book details how this pattern was implemented in Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and elsewhere, and analyzes its emergence and application of all the 10 steps in American political affairs since the September 11 attacks. Alex Beam wrote in The New York Times: “In the book, Wolf insists that she is not equating [George W.] Bush with Hitler, nor the United States with Nazi Germany, then proceeds to do just that.”

Give Me Liberty: A Handbook for American Revolutionaries,” published in 2008, was written as a sequel to “The End of America: Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot.” In the book, Wolf looks at times and places in history where citizens were faced with the closing of an open society and successfully fought back.

Leaders frequently attributed to ruling totalitarian regimes, from left to right and top to bottom in picture, include Joseph Stalin, former General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union; Adolf Hitler, former Führer of Germany; Mao Zedong, former Chairman of the Communist Party of China; Benito Mussolini, former Duce of Italy; and Kim Il-sung, the Eternal President of North Korea.

The NEW totalitarians:

It is my opinion that Joe Biden is just a puppet in this whole grand scheme, and that he is just happy to be in the White House, to read what they put on the teleprompter for him, and to sign what they tell him to.

Kamala Harris, also, really doesn’t factor into much of this either.  She was a human prop who was used to garner minority and female votes, and that’s about it.

The real “New totalitarians” are those shown after those two.

I have heard it said that George Soros could be one of the people who really dictates what they want done. This is the real difference betwen this “new totalitarianism” and totalitarian regimes of the past. In the past, these regimes were all led by tyranical “front men.” Now, the people calling the shots are ghosts behind the scenes, but just as dangerous.

The other cast of characters: AOC, “the squad,” Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, et al, along with mainstream media, and the “useful idiots” of the “deep state,” are really into socialism and not so much the totalitarian aspect of what is happening around them, although they all seem to be willing, if not unknowing, participants at this point.  

Again, like the good doctor said, “I really hope we wake up quickly, because history also shows that it’s a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.”
