God Is Love: Do You Realize How Amazing That Is?

Unbelievers all seem to have their own ideas of who or what God is. For many, they claim He doesn’t exist. For others, He does exist, but He’s not active in creation in any personal way. Then there are some who believe, if He exists, He would have to be some kind of tyrannical, destructive, selfish, mean dictator — otherwise how do you explain pain, disease, natural disasters, starvation, and human suffering?

At least, that’s what I’ve heard on more than one occasion. But I think it goes without saying that no unbeliever can be faulted for their view of God — whatever it may be — because they don’t know Him. And they don’t understand sin.

Romans 1 says all are “without excuse” in terms of the existence of God, but a tree isn’t going to transmit the Gospel of John or the Old Testament into anyone’s soul. Considering the pretenses of the unconverted, it also goes without saying that God is not going to seem loving to them. After all, “A god that allows any kind of evil could not possibly be loving.” Moreover, “A god who sends people to hell could not possibly be loving.”

Unpacking those arguments against God would require their own articles. However, reflecting on how unbelievers define Him made me realize something: How amazing is it that God is not like that? That He is just toward the wicked, and wrathful toward sin, and yet, He is a loving Father. You don’t know this until you know Him by being in a relationship with Him. And even then, I believe we undermine how significant this truly is.

R.C. Sproul, pastor and theologian, once said, “[A]n evangelist can always get a crowd if he continually speaks in meaningless terms about the love of God.” In other words, it’s easy to be flippant because, as he continued to say, “I don’t think there’s any word in the English language that’s been stripped of the depth of meaning such as that word love.” These statements are pulled from his sermon series, “Loved by God,” in which he emphasized the crucial distinction between secular love and biblical love — more specifically, the slippery slope of viewing biblical love through the lens of secular love. It’s a conflation we ought to avoid.

When we view the love of God by any secular standard or definition, we flatten it. We strip it of its magnitude, and we only do ourselves a disservice in the process. Yes, to some extent, our perspectives will always be tainted by our finite understandings, but we (particularly believers) should strive to understand Scripture as it pertains to its holy Author, not by its flawed readers. The reason why Sproul emphasized the common misuse of the word “love” is because, in relation to God, it should cause us to be dumbfounded. Truly analyzing the love of God should leave us breathless and in awe.

God could have been all wrath, all fury, all judgement, and all the things many unbelievers make Him up to be. But instead, even before the foundation of the world, He is (and will always be) love. He didn’t need to create us, because even before us, He, the Son, and the Spirit all had their being within one another — the perfect and holy Trinity. However, He chose to create us. And the Garden of Eden was one of His first depictions of love toward us because it was a depiction of how things were supposed to be. Work was not laborious but enjoyable. Adam and Eve could walk with God, unhindered, in the cool of the day. Sin had not flooded into the earth, which meant there was no separation between the Creator and His created beings.

But God also showed us His love by giving us free will, even though Adam and Eve used that free will to rebel against Him. However, their rebellion is what led to the most perfect display of love we could ever fathom both in the macro and the micro sense of the term.

In love, God made a plan to redeem us. He sent down His Son, who then walked among us, despised and rejected. The Son of Man was mocked, beaten, and scorned by the men of earth. He stripped Himself of His glory, faced the complete wrath of His Father, and died an indescribably painful death. He suffered in more ways than one, but in no way greater than by taking on the sins of all mankind to make us right with God. He rose again on the third day and shortly after ascended to the right hand of the Father.

And still, we were not left alone.

The Spirit of God flooded the earth and now dwells in those who believe. So, even amid the horrors of this life — the pain, suffering, illnesses, disasters, wars, and persecution — we have never been left alone. The unbeliever could never understand how these evils only exist because of sin. Nor could they understand how much they reveal God’s love and goodness.

But you see it, right? Even before the fall, God already had a plan to restore the perfect union represented in the garden to an even greater capacity. He has never stopped pursuing His people. All of time portrays the message of Romans 8:35-39:

“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, ‘For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.’ No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

My God is Love. He sent His own Son to die for me. He is faithful, merciful, and gracious to ensure nothing could separate us from Him. The God I serve is patient when I fall short. He is tender and kind. My God is sovereign and holds me in His righteous right hand. He walks me through the valley of the shadow of death. He keeps me afloat in the bottomless pool and unscathed in the middle of the fire. He disciplines and guides me when I go astray. Even when I ignore or disobey, He remains planted with arms wide open, ready to embrace even the most dreadful of sinners.

All of this is true because my God is love.

Sproul said no word is more stripped of its meaning than the word “love,” because there are no number of words that could do it justice. But this I know: If you really pay attention to the love of God and it doesn’t leave you starstruck, then you’re either reading it with too much of a secular understanding or you’re simply serving the wrong god.

Greg Abbott Signs Bill Allowing Texas Cops To Arrest Illegal Aliens

Republican Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas signed legislation Monday allowing local law enforcement officers to arrest illegal aliens.

Abbott’s signature on the legislation, known as SB4, means it will enter into law in March 2024, CBS News reported. The legislation makes illegal entry into Texas a state misdemeanor, CBS reported, with those convicted under the law facing a fine of up to $2,000 or 180 days in jail.

Repeat offenders could face a felony charge and up to 20 years in jail.

“The goal of Senate Bill 4 is to stop the tidal wave of illegal entry into Texas,” Abbott said as he signed the bill in the border city of Brownsville, according to CBS.

Opponents of the measure claim it is unconstitutional and have criticized the Biden administration for not opposing Texas’ efforts more strongly, according to The Associated Press.

The Border Patrol shut down two bridges on the Texas border to combat the entry of illegal aliens on rail cars hours before Abbott signed the legislation, according to the San Antonio News-Express.

Over 188,000 illegal immigrants have been encountered at the U.S.-Mexico border during fiscal year 2024, according to data released by United States Customs and Border Protection, following 2,045,838 encounters in fiscal year 2023, 2,206,436 in fiscal year 2022 and 1,659,206 in fiscal year 2021. A CBP official told the Washington Examiner that there were at least one million “gotaways,” people who evaded Border Patrol, in fiscal year 2023.

Trump-Appointed Judge Halts Removal Of Confederate Monument At Arlington Cemetery

A Trump-appointed federal judge has temporarily halted removal proceedings for the Confederate memorial at Arlington National Cemetery that began Monday, the Associated Press reported.

Defend Arlington filed a lawsuit in a federal court in Alexandria, Virginia, on Sunday for a temporary restraining order, the AP reported. Work had already begun to remove the bronze elements of the memorial in accordance with recommendations in the Congressionally-mandated Naming Commission’s final report to scrub Department of Defense (DOD) assets of any symbolism that could be seen to honor the Confederacy.

A hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, according to the AP. The memorial has not been dismantled.

“Safety fencing was installed around the Memorial yesterday, Dec. 17 and the deliberate deconstruction process is currently underway,” cemetery spokesperson Rebecca Wardwell told the Daily Caller News Foundation earlier on Monday.

The Army previously said it anticipated the removal process to take place over four days.

Defend Arlington sued the Army and the Department of Defense (DOD) in a district court in February to halt the removal. The district judge dismissed the case on Dec. 12.

The cemetery claims removing the memorial is required by Congress and that doing so will comply with environmental regulations and leave the 400 Confederate graves encircling the monument undisturbed, according to the AP. However, Defend Arlington’s lawsuit argues the Army unlawfully bypassed certain regulations.

“The removal will desecrate, damage, and likely destroy the Memorial longstanding at ANC as a grave marker and impede the Memorial’s eligibility for listing on the National Register of Historic Places,” the lawsuit states, according to the AP.

A Department of Defense spokesperson referred the DCNF to Arlington National Cemetery. The cemetery did not immediately respond to a renewed request for comment.

U.S. District Judge Rossie Alston, who issued the restraining order, said the parties should be prepared to discuss Defend Arlington’s prior, dismissed case at the court date, saying it could affect his decision whether or not to extend the stay beyond Wednesday, the AP reported.

Alston wrote that he “takes very seriously the representations of officers of the Court and should the representations in this case be untrue or exaggerated the Court may take appropriate sanctions,” AP reported.

The new lawsuit differs from the previous one in that the plaintiffs now have concrete evidence the removal efforts are disturbing the graves, David McCallister, a spokesperson for the advocacy group Save Southern Heritage Florida, told the AP.

“The Memorial represents a symbol of reconciliation aimed at healing a country divided during a brutal sectional war and reconstruction,” Defend Arlington wrote in the prior lawsuit.

Congress created the Naming Commission in 2021, which was tasked with identifying and removing names, bases and other DOD assets honoring the Confederate States of America. The final report recommended removing the bronze upper and leaving the granite base intact to avoid disturbing graves.

“The elaborately designed monument offers a nostalgic, mythologized vision of the Confederacy, including highly sanitized depictions of slavery,” Arlington National Cemetery’s web page reads.

The Polls For Joe Biden Might Even Be Worse Than You Think

  • While President Joe Biden continues to lag behind former President Trump in national and battleground state polls, his poll numbers are even worse on several key issues he’ll need to gain ground on to win reelection.
  • Biden is polling behind Trump on key questions on who voters benefited from most while in office, who they trust to handle top issues and who they believe is best fit to serve another term, according to recent polling.
  • “All of these polls point to voters having already decided against Biden on the current merits,” Jon McHenry, a GOP polling analyst and vice president at North Star Opinion Research, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “They just don’t think he’s up to the job, whether we’re asking about traits like stamina and sharpness or about policies like the economy and immigration.”

As President Joe Biden continues to poll behind former President Donald Trump for a potential head-to-head matchup in 2024, recent surveys indicate he is also faring much worse than the Republican on issues that are most important to voters.

Trump has been trending ahead of Biden in national and crucial battleground state polls a year out from a hypothetical rematch, and is currently up by 3.2 points in the RealClearPolitics (RCP) average. Additionally, Biden is down by double digits against Trump on questions of basic presidential competency, including the handling of voters’ top issues and concerns over the Democrat’s age, according to recent polling data.

“He should be worried, and Democrats more generally should be worried,” Dr. Charles Bullock, elections expert and political science professor at the University of Georgia, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “The kinds of issues that Biden is trailing Trump on seem to be the issues that are foremost on most peoples’ minds.”

A Wall Street Journal survey released on Dec. 9 found that only 23% of voters believe Biden’s policies have helped them, compared to nearly 50% who said the same of Trump’s administration.

Ron Faucheux, president of nonpartisan polling firm President of Clarus Research Group, believes this statistic is “the worst omen for Biden,” and told the DCNF “this contrast is deadly” ahead of 2024.

“When Democrats decided to package their economic policies under the single label, ‘Bidenomics,’ it backfired, and gave a name to something voters neither liked nor trusted,” Faucheux said.

Inflation has spiked under the Biden administration, which many critics attribute to the president’s record spending advanced by congressional Democrats. The Inflation Reduction Act, the American Rescue Plan, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and other pieces of Biden’s economic agenda are responsible for green-lighting trillions in spending.

The WSJ poll found that Biden was down by double digits against Trump on who voters trust to handle issues relating to the economy and inflation, as well as immigration, crime and the wars in Ukraine and Israel.

Recent battleground state polling has affirmed the national surveys, finding that Biden is far behind Trump on key issues voters are concerned about going into election year.

A Morning Consult/Bloomberg survey published Thursday shows that across seven swing states — Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Nevada and North Carolina — 51% of voters said the country’s economy was better off under Trump compared to 34% under Biden. The numbers were nearly identical when asked if they’re better off financially now than they were when Trump was president.

Trump also scored double-digits higher than Biden on who the electorate trusts to handle the economy, crime and immigration — which voters said were some of the most pressing issues to them ahead of 2024, according to the Morning Consult/Bloomberg poll.

CNN/SSRS polls in Michigan and Georgia released Monday indicated Trump scored far ahead of Biden for their respective “policy decisions on major issues.”

Another battleground state poll, conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies in Arizona, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Michigan and Pennsylvania, yielded similar results. In all of the states, Trump was ahead of Biden by double digits on issues concerning who “can get the economy going again” and “who will be tough on China.”

“The voters see the same decline for our country where we look weak. Where the economy’s bad, where our enemies are taking advantage of this weakness, and you’ve got a world where you’ve got really bad wars in Ukraine and now in the Middle East, and Biden can’t stop it,” John McLaughlin, CEO and partner of McLaughlin & Associates, which works closely with the Trump campaign, told the DCNF. “The sooner the election happens, the better off the voters will be, and the better off the country will be.”

Biden is also lagging far behind Trump on who voters believe are better fit to serve another term, given the current and former presidents are 81 and 77 years old, respectively.

Trump led Biden 45% to 29% on the question of who “is mentally up for the job” in the WSJ poll, and was ahead by 34 points on “physical stamina.”

An Economist/YouGov survey released Wednesday found that 55% of voters believe Biden’s health and age would “severely limit his ability to do the job,” while only 26% said the same of Trump.

The battleground state polls yielded similar results on the president’s sharpness, stamina and physical and mental health.

Bullock argued that Trump has been successful in messaging on the age issue, noting his “Sleepy Joe” nickname for Biden, posing a sharp contrast between the two men.

“It has taken hold, and it’s been augmented by some things, like when Biden stumbles or falls or that sort of thing,” Bullock told the DCNF. “Well, that kind of underscores, or reinforces, the message that Trump has been putting out.”

Additionally, polling suggests Trump fares better on some personal attributes that are essential to the presidency.

The Economist/YouGov poll found that only 36% of voters believe Biden is a strong leader, compared to nearly 60% who said the same of Trump. Biden was also down by double digits on questions of who the stronger leader is and who knows how to get things done in nearly all of the swing states Redfield & Wilton Strategies surveyed.

“All of these polls point to voters having already decided against Biden on the current merits,” Jon McHenry, a GOP polling analyst and vice president at North Star Opinion Research, told the DCNF. “They just don’t think he’s up to the job, whether we’re asking about traits like stamina and sharpness or about policies like the economy and immigration.”

The last time an incumbent president had nearly as low of an approval rating going into an election year as Biden does, it was Jimmy Carter in November 1979, according to Gallup. Biden’s most recent job performance score was at 37% in November, which is 3 points lower than Carter’s was just a year before he lost to Republican Ronald Reagan by nearly 10 points.

“As we move closer to the start of 2024, this may be the last opportunity for Biden to question his own political assumptions —and to decide not to run,” said Faucheux. “That would be the lighting strike that changes everything.”

The RCP average for a 2024 national Democratic and Republican primary, based on the most recent polling, indicates Biden and Trump are leading their respective fields with 68% and 60% support, respectively.

Neither Biden nor Trump’s campaigns responded to the DCNF’s requests for comment.

BETSY MCCAUGHEY: America’s Border Crisis Will Continue To Fester While Taxpayers Foot The Bill For Social Safety Net

When Emma Lazarus wrote her famous line in 1883, “Give me your tired, your poor,/ Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,” there was no Medicaid, food stamps, housing vouchers and government-run shelters. Those who came knew they were on their own. Now they arrive with their hands out.

A country can have open borders or a generous social safety net, but not both. President Joe Biden is the poster boy for that mistake, and cities across the U.S. are paying the price.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has warned that the cost of sheltering, feeding and providing health care and other services to the deluge of migrants will “destroy” the city. Yet Adams returned empty-handed from a visit with Biden’s staff on Dec. 8 to seek federal help. For the second time, New Yorkers are being told by a U.S. president, in so many words, to “drop dead.”

Biden is also turning his back on Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles and other cities beleaguered by the busloads of destitute migrants from the southern border. Chicago Alderman Raymond Lopez says in the black community there is “no longer feeling the love from Uncle Joe,” as Biden leaves the city to struggle alone with the cost of feeding and sheltering migrants.

Windy City Democrats, outraged by the burden thrust on them, are vowing to disrupt the Democratic National Convention next summer and make their voices heard.

Americans everywhere feel the same. Charity is supposed to begin at home. Chicagoans want to take care of their own first, including the 68,000 locals who are homeless.

Immigration is spiking to all-time highs, exceeding even the wave of newcomers from Europe in the late 19th century, when Lazarus wrote her poem.

About half the spike is due to Biden’s open-border policies. A record 12,000 broke through the southern border last Tuesday, the biggest one-day surge ever.

Immigration per se is not the problem. The U.S. economy needs more workers. With the birthrate declining and baby boomers retiring, the U.S. has a people-shortage problem that can only be solved by immigration.

But Biden is welcoming destitute migrants, instead of newcomers who are educated, have job skills to succeed in today’s economy, speak English and arrive ready to provide for their families.

Biden’s open border means anyone who wades across the Rio Grande gets in. Biden’s legal immigration policy — introduced into the Senate in 2021 — also prioritizes everything but economic self-sufficiency.

Biden’s predecessor, former President Donald Trump, ramped up enforcement of the longstanding “public charge” rule that bars anyone from getting a green card and permanent residence who is likely to depend on Medicaid, food stamps or housing vouchers. Biden reversed this policy.

Countries with smart immigration policies — Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom — have point systems giving preference to educated immigrants with language and job skills.

In contrast, two-thirds of legal immigrants to the U.S. get a green card based solely on having a family member here, whether they can support themselves or not.

It’s no wonder that a staggering 55% of households headed by an immigrant who has not yet attained citizenship use at least one welfare program, according to Census Bureau data.

Biden’s proposed immigration “reform” actually loosens the standards for family-based migration even more, never mind the impact on taxpayers and city social services.

And here’s the wackiest legal immigration program: the diversity lottery. Fifty thousand immigrants from “underrepresented nations” are literally admitted randomly every year. Biden wants to expand that. Canada is recruiting Ph.Ds. Biden is prioritizing diversity.

Sens. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) and John Hickenlooper (D-Colo.) introduced a bill on Nov. 24 to establish a point system or “skills-based approach” here. Americans tired of supporting the strangers coming to their shores, when their own neighbors need help, should support this bill. That includes New York Democrats such as Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries — a New Yorker — charges that Republican reform plans, including deterring illegal migration, are “anchored in xenophobia.” Wrong. They’re anchored in survival.

Unless the U.S. acts to shut down illegal migration and reform legal immigration to favor self-sufficiency, New York and other cities face even tougher days ahead.

SUZANNE DOWNING: Biden FCC’s Treatment Of Elon Musk’s Starlink Is A Slap In The Face To Rural Americans

Look up in the night sky this month: It’s the Geminids meteor shower putting on a show … or it just might be a Starlink satellite orbiting to provide communications connectivity to rural America.

For good or ill, America is increasingly dependent on digital connectivity. But as West and East coasts have locked in high speed broadband, vast portions of rural America were left behind, struggling with unreliable or nonexistent internet access.

Enter Starlink, the game-changing space-based satellite broadband by SpaceX, which is revolutionizing communications across rural America, while improving internet speeds for flyover states that President Joe Biden will never win in 2024.

Yet, in the face of innovation, progress, Elon Musk’s own private capital investment and provable successes of Starlink’s low-orbit satellites, Biden’s Federal Communications Commission(FCC) is telling Musk to take a hike. The FCC wants fiber optic cable at great cost, not Starlink at a lower cost.

It all traces back to President Biden’s vendetta against Musk, which ramped up to warp speed after Musk’s acquisition of Twitter in 2022, when Musk unleashed, almost overnight, the world’s most vibrant free-speech platform.

Musk has used that platform to throw a few deserved digs at the Biden administration for its suppression of free speech under the previous Twitter ownership.

The billionaire entrepreneur, once he looked into the files at Twitter, produced the receipts to show that the federal government had been continuously collaborating with social media giants Twitter and Facebook to suppress the speech of conservatives.

Biden worries about public sentiment turning against him, and he’s trying to cripple Musk by proxy through federal agencies, according to Trump-appointed FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr, who is in the minority on the commission.

Biden’s statements a year ago about how Musk’s cooperation with foreign countries were “worthy of being looked at” in “a lot of way” gave a green light for government agencies to initiate investigations into all-things Musk world.

The Department of Justice, the Federal Aviation Administration, the Federal Trade Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York and even the Department of Interior’s Fish and Wildlife Service, initiated investigations into Musk or his businesses, Commissioner Carr said in his letter of dissent.

This relentless hounding of Musk looks an awful lot like regulatory harassment. The three Democrats who comprise the majority on the five-member FCC, in denying a grant for satellite launches, claim that Starlink simply failed to meet their standards. Carr says those standards couldn’t be met by anyone, ever, and are being applied solely to Starlink.

Consider Starlink’s recent track record. When Russia disabled Ukraine’s internet, Starlink swiftly deployed low-orbit satellites, providing critical connectivity to the embattled nation.

In the Gaza strip, Starlink offered humanitarian aid with the approval of Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last month, after Hamas had started a war with Israel and Netanyahu disabled internet in Gaza so Hamas could not use it for terrorism communications.

The Starlink service also came to the rescue of Tonga after a volcano erupted, severing communication lines in December 2021. Starlink stepped in to restore internet service to Alaska’s Arctic coastline after an undersea fiber optic cable was cut by moving ice in June, leaving isolated communities stranded without internet access for months.

These actions by Starlink were undertaken without government subsidies. But even Musk’s billions can only go so far. Right now, the federal government says it is trying to expand broadband in America, and it looks like it will help anyone, at any cost, so long as the name is not Elon Musk.

Starlink’s satellite mega-constellation is made up of over 5,000 operational satellites, now delivering high-speed internet to millions across the world in 40 countries and counting. This technology represents a giant leap forward in connectivity, especially for disadvantaged areas, like Alaska.

Yet even in Alaska, the feds just awarded one tribal group – Tanana Chiefs Conference — a $35 million grant that costs U.S. taxpayers $365,000 for each household hooked up to fiber in three remote villages, Venetie (pop. 126 with 39 households), Chalkyitsik (pop. 118, with 40 households) and Circle (pop. 42, with 17 households).

Then, the taxpayers will also underwrite the operations of these fiber optic systems to less than 100 households. In Nuiqsut, Alaska, where there are a whopping 125 households, the cost-per-household, born by U.S. taxpayers, is $320,000.

Alaska is a perfect place for space-based satellite internet. The fiber optic plan is nowhere near sufficient for the geography. Other parts of America, even those not at the edge of the world like Alaska is, are also well-suited for this leapfrog technology.

It is time for the FCC to put aside political vendettas and embrace progress.

‘Enormous Amount Of Evidence’: Jonathan Turley Says Joe Biden’s Connection To His Son’s ‘Corruption’ Is ‘Impeachable’

Fox News legal analyst Jonathan Turley stated Sunday that President Joe Biden’s connection to his son, Hunter Biden’s, “corruption” is cause for impeachment given the “enormous amount of evidence.”

Turley appeared on “Fox News Sunday” to discuss the process for the president following the House’s recent resolution to launch an impeachment inquiry. Fox Host Shannon Bream asked the legal analyst about his thoughts on those who claim that there is no “smoking gun” evidence on Biden.

Turley pushed back against the argument stating that not only has there been an “enormous amount” of evidence against the president and his family, but that most people agree it is “influence peddling.” 

“It’s simply not true. I mean, there’s been an enormous amount of evidence put together by the House committees – millions of dollars that have gone through a labyrinth of different accounts and shell companies to Biden family members,” Turley stated.

“There are Biden associates, who said that what the president has said publicly is nonsense, that he did know about this influence peddling. And most people agree that this is influence peddling. This is corruption.”

Turley continued to state that there is no necessity to “really show” that the money had “directly” gone to Biden for him to be impeached, emphasizing the “standard” in federal cases that have involved bribery and other similar crimes.

“But I have to correct one notion that is being bantered about and that is that you have to really show that money went directly to the president. That’s not the standard that in federal cases involving bribery and other crimes, giving money to a principal’s family members is in fact a benefit under federal law. Otherwise, everyone would just give money to family members and say it’s not a bribe, it’s not impeachable,” Turley stated.

“And by the way, it is impeachable. I was lead counsel in the last traditional impeachment trial, my client was impeached because benefits were given to a judge’s family member. So many of these congressmen repeating this argument voted on that impeachment and said, it is impeachable.”

The House passed a resolution Dec. 13 to open an impeachment inquiry into Biden, voting 221-212. Following the vote, House Speaker Mike Johnson released a joint statement with fellow Republicans Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise, Minnesota Rep. Tom Emmer, and New York Rep. Elise Stefanik.

The four Republicans stated that not only did the House take a “critical step” into the investigation regarding Biden’s involvement in his family’s foreign affairs, but that “authorizing the inquiry puts us in the strongest position to enforce these subpoenas in court.”

Florida Is About to Add Another Toll Road To Its Collection

Lake County was the first and I think the only county in Florida to endorse President Trump but now they are going woke with a plan to construct yet another “toll road” that will enter into Orange County.

The difference is this new toll road will apparently charge electric cars as you drive on it. Assuming you own an electric car (EV).

I am surprised that Lake County is jumping on this woke Electric Vehicle (EV) road charging technology but I am not surprised that Orange County is going to add another toll road to its current collection of 16 tax fleecing toll plazas.

Florida actually has the most toll roads of any state in our Republic with a total count of 719 miles plus.

Orange County in central Florida has the most with 153 miles as they fleece the residents and unaware tourists when they try to drive unmolested through this woke county.

The excuse by the folks in charge of all these insane toll roads is that Florida has no income tax and no inheritance tax so we must get the money from somewhere. This of course is total baloney and just another woke excuse.

Nevada and Tennessee have zero state income and inheritance taxes and they also have zero toll roads.

Other states with zero toll roads include Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin and Wyoming. Don’t forget Washington D.C.

Communist China has about 70% of the worlds total length of tolled roads but Florida is catching up with them.

So the residents of Florida who own electric vehicles have been notified by the government of this new toll road that will charge their EVs.

I’m not sure how much money it cost Floridian taxpayers to receive this government mail out but there you go.

I’m also trying to figure out how the government knows who owns these said electric vehicles and how do they know where these people live.

The Central Florida Expressway Authority (CFX) are stating this new road called an expressway development that will allegedly automatically charges EVs when you drive on it will link Highway 27 and State Road 429.

The first phase of this toll road’s construction is estimated to cost $218 million assuming no cost overruns and will be called State Road 516. The total price after completion is calculated at $534 million.

Sean Parks the Lake County Commissioner is saying this new EV expressway could relieve traffic congestion and provide “revolutionary services” to electric vehicle drivers.

Karl Marx, Lenin and Stalin also enjoyed creating revolutionary services for its citizens.

Career politician and Lake County Commissioner Sean Parks who also supported sales tax increases on the citizens also said quote:

“But what’s unique about this is this will be one of the most sustainable, one of the most conservation-minded roads in the world.”

Don’t forget ladies and gentlemen boys and girls it was Karl Marx that created sustainability.

Let’s also remind the woke County Commissioners in Orange and Lake counties the road must still be constructed out of oil based materials but with the exception of the little coils that will be embedded to charge the EVs.

If anyone is interested I have the App on my phone that gives me directions to avoid all these woke communist toll roads.

How the August 8, 2022 FBI Raid on Mir-a-Lago ‘Fundamentally Transformed’ America into a ‘Police State’

“We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” — Barack Hussain Obama on October 30. 2008.


On August 8th of 2022, for the first time in history, the FBI executed a search warrant on a former President President of the United States Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.

August 8, 2022 is a date that will live in infamy as this single event “fundamentally transformed” America into a “police state.”

on August 12th, 2022, investigative reporter Paul Sparry wrote, “Sources say the FBI agents and officials who were involved in the raid on President Trump’s home work in the same CounterIntellegence Division of the FBI that investigated Trump in the Russiagate hoax and are actively under criminal investigation by Special Council John Durham for potentially abusing their power investigating Trump in the Russian fraud and therefore have a potential conflict of interest and should have been RECUSED from participating in this supposed ‘espionage’ investigation at Mar-a-Lago.”

If the federal government can raid the home of a former president of these United States they can do the same to any and all citizens of this nation.

This raid was the first shot in a growing salvo of actions to falsely accuse and imprison one party’s political candidate—Donald J. Trump.

Watch as Don Jr. discusses this “unprecedented raid” with Tucker Carlson.

President Donald J. Trump is the primary target of the police state, and the January 6 protesters—some serving long sentences for peacefully entering the Capitol to make their voices heard—are now the first political prisoners in U.S. peacetime history!

Remember on Mar 6, 2023 when Tucker Carlson, on Fox News, dared to question the idea that J6 was an insurrection?

WATCH: This video tells a different story of Jan 6th

Since then the 40,000 hours of video have been released by Speaker Mike Johnson and they confirm what Tucker Carlson said on Mar 6, 2023.

Watch this U.S. Senate hearing with the FBI.

The Bottom Line

The July/August 2017 issue of The Atlantic had an article titled “What’s Wrong With the Democrats?” by Franklin Foer. Foer wrote:

Leaderless and loud, the Resistance has become the motive power of the Democratic Party. Presidential hopefuls already strive to anticipate its wishes. Elected officials have restructured their political calculus to avoid getting on its wrong side. The feistiness and agitation of the moment are propelling the party to a new place.

But where? The question unnerves Democrats, because the party has no scaffolding. All the dominant leaders of the last two generations—the Clintons, Barack Obama—have receded. Defeat discredited the party’s foundational strategy—or, at the very least, exposed it as a wishful description of a more distant future, rather than a clear plan for victory in the present. Resistance has given the Democrats the illusion of unity, but the reality is deeply conflicted. Two of the party’s largest concerns—race and class—reside in an increasing state of tension, a tension that will grow as the party turns toward the next presidential election.

To produce a governing majority, the party will need to survive an unsettling reckoning with itself. Donald Trump didn’t just prevail over the Democrats; he called into doubt their old truths. [Emphasis added]

The Democratic Party is eating its own. Watch this video about how a Hispanic socialist candidate won the Democrat primary in New York because she targeted her Democratic opponent was white.

As a young man I was a JFK Democrat. He was my American idol. It was the time of Camelot and at the peak of American economic, political and military power. JFK embodied a vision of the future that Americans embraced.

Allow me to point out a few examples of what JFK brought to the Democratic Party:

  • JFK was a Catholic. He held those beliefs and spoke about his beliefs. JFK stated, “For while this year it may be a Catholic against whom the finger of suspicion is pointed, in other years it has been, and may someday be again, a Jew— or a Quaker or a Unitarian or a Baptist. It was Virginia’s harassment of Baptist preachers, for example, that helped lead to Jefferson’s statute of religious freedom. Today I may be the victim, but tomorrow it may be you — until the whole fabric of our harmonious society is ripped at a time of great national peril.
  • JFK was a decorated Navy Combat Veteran. JFK Commanded PT109. He served proudly and loved the military. He created the U.S. Army Special Forces, which led to the creation of special operations forces such as the Navy SEAL program. JFK said, “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty.” JFK supported compulsary military service and noted, “A young man who does not have what it takes to perform military service is not likely to have what it takes to make a living. Today’s military rejects include tomorrow’s hard-core unemployed.”
  • NASA and reaching for the stars. It was JFK who believed in American ingenuity and wanted to put a man on the moon. He and his policies did just that.
  • The National Rifle Association. JFK was a life member of the NRA. On March 20, 1961 JFK became a life member and in a letter to the NRA President Franklin L. Orth stated, “Through competitive matches and sports in coordination with the National Board for Promotion of Rifle Practice, the Association fills an important role in our national defense effort, and fosters in an active and meaningful fashion the spirit of the Minutemen.” BHO hates the NRA and all it stands for. BHO, his administration and Democrats have taken an adversarial position on the Second Amendment and the right to bear arms. JFK supported Second Amendment rights for Americans, saying in an April 1960 statement, “By calling attention to a well-regulated militia, the security of the nation and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our founding forefathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of government tyranny, which gave rise to the Second Amendment, will ever be a major danger to our nation, the Amendment still remains a major declaration of our basic civilian-military relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason, I believe the Second Amendment will always be important.
  • JFK added the M16 (AR15) rifle into the U.S. military inventory. It was JFK who introduced the Armalite M16 (AR-15) rifle into the inventory of the U.S. Military. Under JFK, Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara ordered Secretary of the Army Cyrus Vance to test the M14 , the AR-15 and the AK-47 . The Army’s test report stated only the M14 was suitable for Army use, but Vance wondered about the impartiality of those conducting the tests. He ordered the Army Inspector General to investigate the testing methods used, who reported that the testers showed undue favor to the M14. McNamara ordered a halt to M14 production in January 1964. In November, the Army ordered 85,000 XM16E1s for experimental use, and the Air Force ordered another 19,000. Meanwhile the Army carried out another project, the Small Arms Weapons Systems (SAWS) , on general infantry firearm needs in the immediate future. They highly recommended the immediate adoption of the weapon, so much so that they started referring to it as the M16.
  • Immigration policy was much different under JFK. JFK in his book “A Nation of Immigrants” wrote, “The interaction of disparate cultures, the vehemence of the ideals that led the immigrants here, the opportunity offered by a new life, all gave America a flavor and a character that make it as unmistakable and as remarkable to people today as it was to Alexis de Tocqueville in the early part of the nineteenth century.” In his book JFK Kennedy outlines three main reasons why immigration to the U.S. took place: freedom from religious persecution, political oppression and economic hardship. While JFK believed in a generous, fair and flexible immigration policy he did not believe in open borders and no immigration policy.
  • On Federal taxation and balancing the budget. As JFK wrote on September 18, 1963, “A tax cut means higher family income and higher business profits and a balanced federal budget….As the national income grows, the federal government will ultimately end up with more revenues. Prosperity is the real way to balance our budget. By lowering tax rates, by increasing jobs and income, we can expand tax revenues and finally bring our budget into balance.” BHO has raised taxes, spent like no other president and increased the federal deficit to historic levels.
  • Communism and the Free World. As JFK stated in his 1961 inaugural address, “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty. This much we pledge —- and more. To those old allies whose cultural and spiritual origins we share, we pledge the loyalty of faithful friends. United, there is little we cannot do in a host of cooperative ventures. Divided, there is little we can do—for we dare not meet a powerful challenge at odds and split asunder….We dare not tempt them with weakness. For only when our arms are sufficient beyond doubt can we be certain beyond doubt that they will never be employed.”
  • JFK and McCarthyism. Joseph Kennedy had befriended McCarthy because he found him to be a likable fellow Irish-Catholic who had all the right ideas on the domestic communist menace. These warm feelings were quickly transferred to the entire Kennedy family. JFK liked the fact that McCarthy went after the “elites” in the State Department whom JFK regarded with contempt. Even before McCarthy made accusations against the State Department of subversion, JFK had already aligned himself with the militant anti-communists who blamed the Truman State Department for the “loss” of China. So JFK declared on the House floor in January 1949, “The responsibility for the failure of our foreign policy in the Far East rests squarely with the White House and the Department of State.”

I could go on and discuss how JFK worked with Congress. How JFK embraced the Constitution. At his 1962 State of Union, JFK stated, “The Constitution makes us not rivals for power but partners for progress.”

Just like Foer, I ask, “What has happened to the Democratic Party?

How Soviet Fascism is Devouring Our American Dream

“A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within… The traitor is the carrier of the plague. You have unbarred the gates of Rome to him.” — Cicero


A similar idea was expressed by U.S. President Abraham Lincoln; and human nature has not changed since Cicero. It is true—the traitor is the carrier of the plague.

My beloved America the Beautiful is experiencing that exact plague today that was brought to us by Soviet Fascism.

The ideas are not flying on air by wind—the people are implementing the ideas, and disseminating them. History proves it.  As soon as Adolf Hitler came to power to provide the Third Reich thousand years of life, the Reich was spreading the Fascist ideology across the world. Europe was the first victim. Do you remember ‎Austrian Anschluss in 1938? That was only the beginning and America didn’t escape the policy. German teachers marched to America to share their Fascist ideology. The institution of student’s exchange had been created. Hitler’s right-hand Joseph Goebbels determined the manners and methods of the teaching: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.

Neither President FDR, nor President of Harvard University had opposed it and brainwashing of America has begun: American students in Germany and Americans by German students in America. All of that has ended up in WWII and millions death.

Alas, history loves to repeat itself. Twenty years later, another dictator, Joseph Stalin, a former partner of Adolf Hitler, borrowed Hitler’s policy. The Russian agitators marched to Europe and America carrying Stalin’s ideology of Soviet Socialism, which I called Soviet fascism. Stalin had the same agenda, like Hitler, to spread his ideology around the globe to have One World Socialist Government under Russia’s rule. He understood that to defeat capitalism he needed masses of people and he helped Chinese Communists to create a Chinese Communist State in the 1940th. The entire structure of the Russian Intelligence Apparatus had been repeated in China’s government. Since then, the ideology of Soviet Socialism, which I called Soviet Fascism, has been exercised by both countries, though under different names: Soviet Socialism in Russia and Communism in China. They are intimately connected by the umbilical cord of the Stalinist design.

Seventy years later the COP is puzzled in the vicious circle of ignorance, talking about Marxism, as the American enemy #1for decades. They won’t come out of this vicious circle of incompetence, until understanding that Marxism is dead, it has never been materialized by any government in practice. We are dealing with Stalinist Soviet Socialism, which I called Soviet Fascism, writing and warning America and the world about it. Under the name of Soviet Socialism, Stalin and his devoted disciples have been fooling and deceiving the world and the U.S.A, for the last hundred years. Stalin was preaching Marxism, to defraud people, but implemented his Soviet Socialism in Russia and across the globe. As a matter of fact, the fraudulent ideology of Soviet Socialism can’t exist without the force of punitive agencies to sustain the agenda. That is the reason I was introducing to America the actual force: KGB’s Mafia/Army—the Evil Doer for the last forty-two years.

The vicious circle of ignorance has done even more harm to the American mind, it diverted attention from the actual culprit—the KGB’s Mafia/Army. Look at the current debate within the COP, they are unable to connect simple things in front of them, because they don’t know the KGB’s Mafia/ Army. Sean Hannity repeated a hundred times the foreign countries that had bribed Biden’s White House: Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Russia, China and Romania. He just doesn’t know that all former Soviet satellites and former Soviet Republics are still under the power of the KGB. Stalin had designed it that way—no foreign transaction can escape the KGB’s supervision—the carrier of the plague. Without knowledge of Russia and its counterintelligence Apparatus we will never defeat the Democrats infiltrated by that Apparatus and using the Russian policy of disinformation…

The same supervision of the KGB we have in the sport. Enes Kanter Freedom, from Turkey feels it deeply, standing respectfully and singing the anthem. Like me with Russia, he has a personal experience with Turkey, he ran away from.  Turkey has been playing the double-game since the 20th century, it became obvious under Recep Tayyip Erdoğan-President of Turkey, the friend of Vladimir Putin.  Look for the carrier of the plague around Colin Rand Kaepernick, an American civil rights activist and football quarterback, and you can find a lot of bad actors around him in our midst. There are thousands of them. Sean O’Brien, the President of teamsters. would know who killed Jimmy Hoffer and has known what a candidate the teamsters should support in the 2024 election by reading my columns.

There are not many knowledgeable individuals either in the COP or Dems leadership or American social media, let alone the shameful presentations of three presidents of the IVY Leagues Universities missing the enormous danger of anti-Semitism. As a result, the American people stay ignorant and have no idea of the KGB’s Mafi/Army—an Evil Doer, the carrier of the plague that has been committing War Crimes against Humanity for the last hundred years. I’ve been warning about the terrorist state of Russia spreading its fraudulent ideology across the globe, marrying Islam with Communist ideology and using Jihad to fight Western civilization. Finally, the Russian KGB’s Mafia/Army penetrated the White House and the Putin/Biden collusion continued to fight against the Republican party and the American political system, the game of ploys in America, which was started by the Dems party decades ago. Read my columns about how the KGB has killed a Truman’s Party turning it over to Socialism.

I couldn’t break through the wall of mistrust for years. Perhaps, the word Mafia didn’t click in the American mind as a politically organized crime. In addition to that the FBI has submitted my name to the FISA Court and the Court made me a Foreign Agent in 2002, with consequent sabotaging of my writings. Can you imagine my feeling, when I heard Sammy the Bull, Gravano, former mobster, who analyzed the Bidens family, speaking with Jesse Walters on Fox News, Prime Time, November 30, 2023? Sammy Gravano is an American former mobster who became underboss of the famous Gambino crime family/Mafia. Sammy spoke pretty well in complete agreement with my opinion—Biden’s team is a Mafia. I would add—the Soviet Mafia. Read my latest columns for details.

The weaponized FBI  

The weaponized FBI is playing a special role in the Biden government, it has been weaponized exactly the way Stalin weaponized the KGB in the 1930th. The FBI is not only dysfunctional against the Hunter lab-tab, it is also very well-functioning against the Truth, defending Biden. New details about Derek Chauvin’s attack by Ramond “Mundo” Mendoza author of Mexican Mafia Encyclopedia was speaking with Jesse Walters, Prime Time, 12/4/2023. He insisted that a Mexican Mafia-attacker of Derec Chauvin was the FBI’s mole. I believe him, but the entire predicament is a more complicated case. First, there is no Mexican Mafia and Mexican Cartels, those are Russian Mafia and Russian Cartels. They had been established by Stalin in 1950-60th. Read my columns or books about the era of Stalin’s dictatorship and the use of Spanish children in spreading the ideology of Soviet Socialism, which I called Soviet Fascism in Mexico. Also go to Fact-Check of history

Second, the pundit’s discussion on dictators is laughable. If the people don’t know Stalin’s era of the 20th century and his dictatorship, they have no idea of the real dictators in the 21st century. Their incompetents allow the Russian KGB’s Mafia/Army—the Evil Doer to harm America and the world with impunity in the 21st century. They don’t understand that Biden’s team have implemented Soviet Socialism in America colluding and coordinating with Russia on the Southern border against the American political system. Read my column: The Putin Biden KGB Border PlotOctober 17, 2022. As I have already stated, January 6 is the FBI and the KGB mutual operation. The answer to many of our problems lies in the awareness of the actual enemy, which is not Marxism, but the KGB’s Mafia/Army—the Evil Doer…

Third, don’t be surprised by student’s pro-Hamas protests in American Colleges and Universities. It is a product of long-term Russian policy towards the Middle East, in America, desired to stay in the dark behind the scene, acting through its proxies on the Middle East. Soviet Fascism is quite a manipulating ideology: but the agenda is the old one: to fight American capitalism and drive America from the area. We are not aware of that, because both the FBI and CIA are not able to identify the foreign agents freely acting against America on our soil–both don’t know Russia and its counterintelligence Apparatus—as a result Soros destroys us for thirty years.  Ramond “Mundo” Mendoza, author of Mexican Mafia Encyclopedia insisted that a Mexican Mafia-attacker of Derec Chauvin in prison was the FBI’s mole. I believe it is true, but there is no Mexican Mafia, but the Russian one, which is another connection of Biden’s team with Russia. Moreover, the FBI’s connection with Russia is making our national security doomed…

I’ve introducing Stalinist Socialist modus operandi almost in all my columns so important it is. Stalinist Socialist modus operandi: lies, deceit, fabrication and fraud. Pay attention to the Biden’s team: they all are covering up the truth by lying non-stop, turning America on the brink of destruction. The implementation of Soviet Socialism, which I called Soviet fascism by the Democrat party, had been going on for several decades, changing drastically our political system and culture. Talking about the ideology America’s pundits use the term Marxism, which is critically wrong, as it confuses the audience and diverting attention from the real culprits doing it for decades. As a former Soviet attorney knowing the dirty tricks of the KGB’s Mafia/Army, I started warning the American public by my writings forty-two years ago.

There are many features of Soviet Socialism I have identified in Biden’s America and writing about them. The main actor of the achievements is the Russian KGB’s Mafia/Army. The FBI targeting Catholics as possible terrorists has completed the list of common identities with Soviet Russia. Though all Soviet people had been under government censorship, the minorities were targeted for their religions as well. Stalin had planned to deport all Jews from the European part of the country to Siberia or the Far East. My family had been targeted to remove us from Leningrad. Stalin’s death saved us in 1953. Yes, Jews were the first, but the second target were Catholics. Read my columns on politics and religions in The Soviet Union.

Extremism depends on political ignorance and we have it in our Colleges and Universities: 10% of students fighting for Palestinian cause think that Yasser Arafat was the first Israeli Prime Minister. Fascism is a very manipulating ideology, it’s dangerous for all people and especially for people loving freedom. Fascism in conjunction with Soviet Socialist modus operandi has become a sophisticated form of a veil, allowing Soviet Fascism committing War Crimes and staying incognito. Nobody talks about Soviet Fascism, the Russian terrorist state and War Crimes of a global assault on Western civilization by them for centuries. I hope the war in Israel will bring some light to the truth. Hamas is the Russian proxy, like Iran and other members of the new “Axis of Evil” under the Russian umbrella, I’ve been writing for forty-two years. Let me give you some paragraphs to grasp that.

Failed AMERICAN Intelligence

It is impossible to ignore a colossal failure of Israeli Intel by oversleeping the October 7, 2023 massacre. The fiasco of the Israeli Intel is not unique. The American FBI and CIA are dysfunctional today—they have no clue of the Russian KGB’s Mafia/Army. Winston Churchill once described Russia as “a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma”—words that still ring true. Considering Russia’s current war with Ukraine—and Russia’s role in the shifting balance of power in today’s world—a better understanding of Russia is critical. Jenifer Griffin gave a summary of Hamas on Fox News, 11/3/2023. It was only half of the truth.

As a former Soviet attorney, I know the other half. Do you know that Russia’s Intel recruited Arafat in 1957? The infiltration to the Middle East by Russia’s Intel began then. Do you know that Arafat’s lieutenant Abbas is running a Palestinian State today? Those are the patterns of the Soviet/Russian infiltration to the Middle East to create their proxies in the 1950-1970s. All of that has been managed by the KGB’s Mafia/Army—an Evil Doer. Their espionage is flourishing in Europe and America as well. If Russia was alone spreading Socialism/Communism in the 20th century, we are dealing now with a tandem of Russia and China. It is not Marxism now coming from China, but Stalinist Soviet Fascism…

“Europe now has members of the KGB in some parliaments and there is another facet to the Russian connection. As you know, recruited by the KGB in 1957, Arafat is dead, but we have mini-Arafat–Mahmoud Abbas. The connection with the Kremlin stays the same. He is literally a student of Moscow with Soviet “academic credentials”; his dissertation had denied the Holocaust. Look at Arafat’s corrupt people surrounding Abbas: the same corrupt structure plus Hamas and Hezbollah under Russia’s supervision, ready to wipe Israel off the world map. Don’t expect peace in the Middle East—the KGB is there!” Read The Global Spy Ring, January 1, 2018.

We are at the Putin/Biden global war against Western civilization and American Capitalism. Biden’s don’t, don’t, don’t is not a deterrence to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, but a demonstration of weakness. There was no deterrence and Putin occupied Crimea in 2014. The Israel-Hamas war also will be a test for Biden/Democrats. His team knows that Syria is Russia’s proxy: they won’t show the force. They know that all terrorist’s movements including ISIS, bin-Laden and others was supervised by Russia. Biden’s team is Controlled Opposition and will operate from weakness with no adequate response to attacks on the American personnel of the military bases in Syria and Iraq. Read my columns about the KGB’s Mafia/Army war waged in the Middle East, in 1979 to see a total Russian supervision of the region. Saddam Hussein was Russia’s proxy at the time. Syria is a good example to show that Russian supervision, read: The Failing Intelligence and the Russian Connection, November 12, 2023. Read about Syria to grasp War Crimes committed by Russia.

Yes, Biden’s team has shown its real face by betraying Israel and calling for a cease-fire. Some Republicans are helping Biden’s team to fool you, talking about Marxism as our main enemy. There was a discussion between three respected men: Thomas Sowell, Mark Levin, and Victor Davis Hanson on Fox News, November 25, 2023. They were discussing Biden’s government run by the Radical Left. I was amazed, watching three of the most intelligent men in America, talking about Marxism today. Stunning by listening to them, I was still waiting for the truth. Alas, they didn’t know the truth, they didn’t know Stalinism and his ideology of Soviet Socialism, which I called Soviet fascism. None of them has mentioned Russia and Globalist Putin at all. They diverted people’s attention from the actual culprit—the Russian KGB’s Mafia/Army—the Evil Doer, described by me for the last forty-two years… I have to give France a token for the truth.

France issues arrest warrant for Bashar al-Assad By Rampart Stonebridge

In a groundbreaking legal move, France has issued an international arrest warrant for Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, charging him with complicity in crimes against humanity.

“This action stems from the horrific chemical attacks in Syria in 2013, which claimed the lives of over 1,400 individuals near Damascus. The warrant implicates Assad directly in the 2013 chemical attacks, marking a significant step in international efforts to address war crimes.”

France is talking about the War Crimes of the new “Axis of Evil” under the Russian umbrella. Bashir al-Assad’s Syria is the member of “Axis of Evil” under the Russian umbrella, described by me during the last forty-two years… “The 2013 chemical attacks, a dark chapter in Syria’s history, resulted in international outrage and condemnation. In August of that year, videos surfaced, showing the harrowing effects of the attack on civilians, including numerous fatalities. These videos were pivotal in drawing global attention to the severity of the situation.” Knowing Soviet Fascism, I have no doubts—the chemical for attacking the population in Syria has been provided to Bashir al- Assad by Russia…

My fellow Americans!

NOT SATIRE: LAPD Swears in Police Officers Who are DACA Recipients and Entered the U.S. Illegally

What could possibly go wrong? How long before they are swearing in convicts?

Not satire: LAPD swears in police officers who are DACA recipients and entered US illegally

by: Pat Droney, Law Enforcement TODAY, December 15, 2023;

LOS ANGELES, CA – If you set out to destroy a country, you couldn’t do any worse than what they’ve done in Los Angeles, where the first group of illegal aliens in the country are set to graduate from the Los Angeles Police Academy.

You read that correctly–people who entered the country illegally will be on the streets of LA enforcing the law. No, this is not satire from the Babylon Bee.

Worse yet, the group of DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) LAPD recruits are not, by virtue of their undocumented status, permitted to carry their city-issued firearms when they are off-duty, NBC Los Angeles reports.

Under federal law, DACA aliens are prohibited from possessing either guns or ammunition, but the LAPD has found a workaround for that little problem. They will simply consider off-duty hours part of the definition of “performance of their official duties or other law enforcement purpose,” which will allow these individuals to carry their issued firearms off-duty, a new police policy memo reads.

“We’ve sought information from our federal and state and City attorney to understand what does the policy needs [sic] to discuss to articulate the basis of which a DACA individual, now a police officer, can lawfully carry and possess a firearm and ammunition,” Chief Michel Moore told the outlet, channeling his best Kamala Harris word salad.

U.S. Enters 2024 With its Smallest Military in Over 80 Years, All Branches Except TRUMP’S Space Force MISS Recruiting Goals

What did the Democrats expect when they “woked up” the military while brainwashing our youth to hate America?

U.S. enters 2024 with its smallest military in over 80 years as active-duty troop numbers sink to less than 1.3 million and all branches except Space Force MISS recruiting goals and Pentagon issue ‘national call of service’ to Gen Z

  • Pentagon officials say recruitment is more difficult than it used to be
  • Military says a ‘national call to service’ is needed
  • Active-duty numbers have not been so low since 1941

By Nick Allen For Dailymail.com, 17 December 2023

The United States is set to enter 2024 with its smallest military in more than eight decades and faces one of its ‘greatest challenges’ as it tries to boost recruiting from Gen Z, Pentagon officials said.

Under the $886 billion annual defense bill passed by Congress this week total active-duty troop numbers will fall to 1,284,500 next year.

That is the lowest total since before the U.S. entered the Second World War in 1941 and officials said there should be a ‘national call to service’.

Recent recruitment targets were missed in the Army, Navy and Air Force, although the Marine Corps and the newly established Space Force reached their goals.

This week Ashish Vazirani, the Pentagon’s acting undersecretary for personnel and readiness, told the House Armed Services Committee that the individual services missed their recruitment goals in 2023 by a combined 41,000 personnel.

He said: “That number understates the challenge before us as the services lowered end-strength goals in recent years, in part because of the difficult recruiting environment.”

Vazirani said the ‘all-volunteer force faces one of its greatest challenges since (its) inception’ in the 1970s when the draft ceased.

Military recruiters say Generation Z – those born between 1997 and 2012 generally have a ‘low trust in institutions’ and have ‘decreasingly followed traditional life and career paths.’

They have fewer relatives who served in the military leading to less inclination to serve,.

Two decades ago 25 per cent of young people had never thought about joining the military, but that figure is now more than 50 percent.

“This has led to a disconnect between the military and a large share of society,” Vazirani said.

“Youth of today are not saying no to what the military has to offer, they simply don’t know much about military service.’

Blue States Are Stripping Rural Counties Of Ability To Prevent Green Energy Takeover Of Their Communities

Several blue states have deprived rural counties of the ability to reject the massive green energy projects that corporations want to site in their communities, while green industrial interests and environmentalist groups have poured money into state capitals.

Michigan, California, New York and Illinois have all passed legislation that consolidates authority over land use issues and rules with state-level bureaucrats at the expense of local governments that could have altered their own zoning codes to stem the tide of industrial green projects like solar and wind farms. These policies deprive rural residents in these states of their freedom and local autonomy, while also benefiting the corporate interests that line the pockets of the states’ Democratic governors, state policy experts and lawmakers told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“Much of the renewables business and movement has been co-opted by big corporations,” which “are spending millions” on politics “because this is a matter of billions for them,” Edward Ring, a senior fellow for the California Policy Institute and the organization’s co-founder, told the DCNF. “What we are seeing, for example, with the ‘Inflation Reduction Act,’ is one of the biggest gifts of money to corporations that we have ever seen in this country,” Ring told the DCNF, referring to the IRA’s subsidies facilitating the rise of green energy.

Since 2020, there have been about 350 local restrictions or rejections of solar and wind projects across the country, according to energy expert Robert Bryce’s Renewable Rejection Database.

Michigan

Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer recently enacted her state’s green energy mandate, which sets a target for 100% green energy generation by 2040. The legislation has the state poised to significantly ramp up construction of solar and wind developments, as well as carbon capture pipelines that will be needed for the state’s natural gas plants to continue to operate in the future.

One of the bills Whitmer signed into law as part of the package, H.B. 5120, specifically allows the Michigan Public Services Commission, the state’s utility regulatory body overseen by officials appointed by the governor, to exercise permitting authority for large green energy projects rather than leaving zoning discretion to the municipal governments. Several local opposition campaigns in more rural locales across the state were able to hinder major green energy developments in their communities, but the new law could make similar grassroots success in the future effectively impossible.

Whitmer’s green energy package and the siting bill “very clearly advance the interests of monopoly utilities, big wind and solar developers and extreme environmental groups over the interests of local communities and rural Michiganders,” Jason Hayes, the director of energy and environmental policy for the Mackinac Center, a Michigan-based think tank, told the DCNF. “Put another way, these bills protect the profits of politically favored and heavily subsidized wind and solar developers, while sacrificing the rights and interests of the communities that will have to endure the wind turbines and solar arrays developers want to build… rural Michiganders will have to endure both the rising costs and the intrusions into their lives and environment as massive increases in wind and solar development begin to occur.”

A nonprofit organization linked to DTE Energy, a major utility company that Hayes told the DCNF stands to gain from the state’s green energy mandate, shelled out $2 million to help Michigan Democrats in 2022, according to The Detroit News. DTE Energy also gave $400,185 to organizations that spent, directly or indirectly, on Whitmer’s behalf before and after her victory in the 2018 gubernatorial race, according to the Michigan Capitol Confidential.

While DTE Energy also gives money to Republicans, Democrats received substantially more from the company in 2018 and 2022, according to the Michigan Capitol Confidential and The Detroit News.

Additionally, since 2021, Whitmer-affiliated political funds have raked in more than $100,000 in campaign cash from environmentalist organizations that support the green energy transition, like 314 Action and the Michigan League of Conservation Voters’ political action committee, according to state campaign finance records.

“Gov. Whitmer and Lansing Democrats are ignoring the concerns of Michigan families and forcibly imposing massive wind and solar projects on communities who have clearly stated that they do not want them,” Republican Michigan State Rep. Jaime Green, who represents a rural district and serves in Michigan’s House Energy, Communications and Technology Committee, told the DCNF. “Gov. Whitmer has sent a clear message: If there’s a disagreement between what local people want and what the environmental lobby wants, she’s siding with the lobbyists.”

While not directly related to the state’s consolidation of siting and permitting authority, the reaction of locals in rural Green Charter Township to a China-tied electric vehicle battery component manufacturer’s plans to set up shop in their community shows that local residents and state officials do not always agree on what is best for a given community. Whitmer, fellow Democrats and green energy advocates hailed Gotion’s plans to build subsidized facilities in the area as a major step forward for Michigan’s green economy, but many locals did not approve of the company because of its extensive connections to the Chinese Communist Party via its parent company, Gotion High-Tech.

Voters punished local officials who had supported the company in November at the ballot box, ousting five members of the township’s council, the township’s clerk and the township’s treasurer. Those officials had overseen and facilitated Gotion’s plans to operate in the area before their removal.

California

California, another state dominated by the Democratic Party, passed a law in June 2022 that enables state bureaucrats to bypass local restrictions in order to permit large-scale green energy projects. Similar to Michigan’s newly-enacted statute, the California law is specifically designed to facilitate the state’s pursuit of 100% zero-carbon energy generation by 2045.

“The Democratic lawmakers themselves, along with a lot of Republicans even in red states, are just getting so much money from these companies,” Ring told the DCNF regarding the green energy lobby’s influence in politics. “There is a reason we have eminent domain for some purposes, such as building pipelines and streets. Now, we have an abuse of eminent domain, and also an overriding of zoning—the problem is when you use it for something that relies on hype, without a proven and compelling public interest,” like fast-tracking solar and wind projects that often harm the environment while providing unreliable, intermittent power, Ring added.

Like Whitmer, Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a self-proclaimed environmentalist, has received considerable financial support from interests that ostensibly stand to benefit from a rapid buildout of green energy projects in the state. Between his 2018 and 2022 gubernatorial campaigns, Newsom received more than $340,000 from green energy trade groups, political action committees and executives, according to state campaign finance records reviewed by the DCNF.

“There is nothing wrong with being an environmentalist, per se. The issue is that the environmentalist movement has been hijacked by corporate interests,” Ring told the DCNF.

New York

New York state established the Office for Renewable Energy Siting (ORES) in April 2020, when former Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo was still in office before he resigned amid sexual harassment and COVID-19 scandals. ORES has the ability to not apply “any local law or ordinance” that is “unreasonably burdensome” for a proposed green energy facility in view of the state’s aggressive green energy goals or the perceived environmental benefits associated with a given project, according to the enabling statute’s text.

The bulk of new solar and wind projects are sited in upstate New York, a more rural region of the state that already receives most of its energy from carbon-free generation sources, Ken Girardin, the New York-based Empire Center’s research director, told the DCNF, citing data from the New York Independent System Operator.

“New York’s land-use policies and practices are far from perfect, but these are projects that wouldn’t be coming to areas if it weren’t for considerable public subsidies,” Girardin told the DCNF.

Cuomo and his successor, Democratic New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, each received considerable contributions from interest groups that ostensibly stand to gain from a green energy transition in the state. Green energy companies, trade groups and executives, as well as relevant unions and their political action committees, have contributed about $270,000 combined to the two politicians since 2018, according to state campaign finance records reviewed by the DCNF.

Unions are a major political force in the state, and they ostensibly could benefit from the scale of the many projects that will need to be built in order to meet the state’s longer-term green energy targets, Girardin told the DCNF.

Illinois

In February, Democratic Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker enacted H.B. 4412, which “prevents counties from enacting preemptive local ordinances that outright ban local wind and solar projects, hindering the state’s new climate goals.” Illinois is aiming to reach 100% green energy generation by 2050, and will need to build out a significant network of new solar and wind projects to get there.

“These new energy companies, many of which are owned by large, out-of-state venture capital firms receiving massive tax breaks, are now able to remove local control against the wishes of the community,” Republican Illinois State Sen. Terri Bryant told the DCNF about the policy. “This bill is especially dangerous in heavily agriculture counties that have limited zoning and large spaces of land used for crops… removing local control in favor of new energy companies, many of which are out of state and out of the country, is not just a threat to property rights, but to our national security and food supply chain.”

In his two terms as governor, Pritzker has pursued left-wing policies in numerous policy arenas, including imposing tight gun control measures, a $15 minimum wage and eliminating cash bail requirements for suspected criminals. These policies align with the left-wing agenda promulgated by other members of his family, one of the wealthiest in the country, according to the New York Post.

The offices of Whitmer, Newsom, Hochul and Pritzker did not respond immediately to requests for comment.

THE DUAL THREATS: Environment—Social—Governance (ESG) and Natural Asset Companies (NACs)

Have you heard to the new scheme by the corporate elite to own and control us?

The SEC is going to end the public comment period on January 2, 2024 to allow Natural Asset Companies (NACs) to be on the stock exchange. Read this very important article and join us on Wednesday, December 20, 2023 at 1-347-857-4364 or Blog Talk Radio – American Statesman at 7:00 PM EST, 6:00 PM CST, 5:00 PM MST, 4:00 PM PST. Learn how to stop this treason on America.

Twelve years ago, we started a group called the Amenders — dedicated to educating and ending UN Agenda 21. Their goal has never changed following Marx and Islam they believe PRIVATE PROPERTY OWNERSHIP MUST END. Over the years the same Agenda has been presented under new names. The Agenda is a total lie. The goal is to depopulate the planet and own and control all private property as well as all means of production and distribution of all human activity. Read their own words:

Maurice Strong former UN Secretary General –Oil Billionaire –stated:

Land, because of its unique nature and the crucial role it plays in human settlements, cannot be treated as an ordinary asset, controlled by individuals and subject to the pressures and inefficiencies of the market. Private land ownership is also a principal instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to social injustice; if unchecked, it may become a major obstacle in the planning and implementation of development schemes. Social justice, urban renewal and development, the provision of decent dwellings and healthy conditions for the people can only be achieved if land is used in the interests of society as a whole.”

David Rockefeller, formed Trilateral Commission with one goal the transformation of the world’s economy, culture and governments into a new world order — with the Rockefellers’ and their select cronies at the helm. Much of the new world order’s plans are based on crisis management, and the idea that a great crisis will occur that will lead to the great transition, where globalists will swoop in to save the day, transforming society into the promised paradise — which actually takes away sovereignty and private property.

This unfinished Rockefeller agenda became Agenda 21/2030 calling for A New World Order. First aim was depopulation using Climate Change.

This article is a great explanation of the Agenda and  the treachery and deceit these people have for the population. It is a must read. Agenda 21 Chapter 5 almost lets the cat out of the bag, blaming the growth of world population for “placing increasingly severe stress on our planet.” Chapter 7 calls for an end to private property, claiming that “social justice … can only be achieved if land is used in the interests of society-as-a-whole.”

Maurice Strong who worked with Rockefeller mentored Klaus Schwab, Chairman of the World Economic Forum of “you will own nothing and be happy” fame.   Schwab was a student of Globalists, David Rockefeller, and Henry Kissinger. To speed up depopulation, Kissinger wrote the secret 1974, U.S. National Security Study Memorandum 200, which called for abortion on demand, widespread birth control, and sterilization to stem global fertility rates and “overpopulation.”

They must cripple the west and any freedom the people have. They can not have America as an example for other countries to want. They must get all government agencies using the same lies. Computer models not facts are use to prove their lies. Globalists are always on the attack. They never stop. The attack now is the American economy.  America must be forced into debt, fossil fuel America’s power must be demonized and shut down. Unreliable electricity that can be controlled by your smart meter is their answer.  Corporations now run by nonsense regulations and incompetent Affirmative Action graduates focus on DIE and ESG not on making a quality product. Stakeholder capitalism forces the corporation to consider “public welfare before individual gain.”   Sustainability programs for “climate change” will do nothing except shift wealth to the wealthy putting others out of business as they can not comply. Schwab signed an agreement with the UN in 2019 to expedite the Agenda.

The middle class will be decimated. They will be unable to meet the expensive demands. They will be watched, surveilled, monitored constantly. Wrong words, actions of them and their families will cause fines and lack of mobility or services.  We will be issued social credits in order to make any purchase. We will not be able to leave our 15 minute city without permission. This is not a joke. globalists are serious. Once CBDC and disarmament are in place say goodbye to freedom and liberty.

The true goals of Agenda 21/2030, in 1991, Maurice Strong wrote in a report for the UN’s Conference on Environment and Development: “Current lifestyles and consumption patterns of the affluent middle class — high meat intake, use of fossil fuels, home and workplace air-conditioning and suburban housing — are not sustainable.”  He forgot to say, for you that is, I will still enjoy what I choose. Notice he said Middle Class not Upper Class.  Remember Obama told an African Town Hall that they can’t have Air Conditioning, car or big house, he meant it.

Their newest scheme to destroy America and put Americans in bondage is called Natural Asset Company (NAC).  The Wall Street elite solicited the unelected SEC to form a new corporation that can solicit invertors (worldwide) to buy American land and natural resources. The goal is to leave the land undeveloped so that they can offset carbon credits and save the planet. BS.  Remember, they will have, you won’t.

Karen Bracken’s Truth Bomb has a great description:

THE THREAT OF ESG (Environment-Social-Governance) — this is VERY important information. ESG is bad enough but have you heard of Natural Asset Companies. NACs are a new form of ESGs which to me were just a new form of the old B Corporations? NACs will hold the rights to “ecosystem services,” or the benefits people receive from nature, such as food, pollination, tourism, or clean water; such global benefits are valued at an estimated $125 trillion annually. They all use the climate change hoax but the real reason for these schemes is to make money and steal our freedom and liberty. As soon as people catch on to their devious unconstitutional schemes they change the name. With some states backing away from ESGs in rolls NACs (which have been around for a couple of years now). They are all wrapped together for total fascism in America. Learn about ESG, NAC and Benefit Corporations (B Corp) – It is now very obvious why Gates is buying up farm land….MONEY. The SEC is going to close he comment period  on January 2, 2024 to allow NACs to be on the stock exchange. PLEASE call your US Rep and US Senators and demand they vote NO on allowing NACs to trade on the stock exchange. I created a power point about 10 years ago on Benefit Corporations. But all 3 are doing the same thing but just in different arenas. At the end of the day they will own and control everything.
