China Hawks Slam Biden-Harris Admin For Ignoring Growing Evidence Beijing Is Running Spy Ops Out Of Diplomatic Posts

/in , , , , , , , , /by

The Biden State Department has seemingly ignored mounting evidence of China running influence and intel operations from its diplomatic posts. And national security experts and China hardliners say Americans shouldn’t expect the administration to take action anytime soon.

Linda Sun, a former high-level official under Gov. Kathy Hochul, was arrested on Sep. 3 on allegations of acting on behalf of China’s government at the direction of the New York Chinese consulate, adding to a growing list of allegations of Chinese influence activities. The State Department has several tools to deter Beijing and Chinese consulates from such activities but has not taken any visible measures to do so, experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“There is a range of things the State Department could be doing… The least they could do is to reiterate the warnings of the previous [Trump administration], and where they see need of it, improve upon the warnings of the previous administration,” Steve Yates, a senior fellow at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) and former national security official, told the DCNF. “That hasn’t happened, and I don’t expect it to happen now.”

Yates pointed to an example where the Trump administration shut down a Chinese consulate in Texas in 2020 over concerns that it was a hub for espionage and influence activities. The Biden administration has not closed any of the four remaining Chinese consulates located across the U.S.

Sun was accused of using to position to alter public statements to read as favorable to Beijing, block Taiwanese officials from meeting with New York officials and help smuggle foreign nationals into the U.S. using falsified immigration documents — all in exchange for bribes and gifts from the Chinese consulate, which coordinated with her and provided her guidance in committing the alleged crimes, according to Sun’s indictment.

Sun is not the only alleged Chinese operative in New York’s political orbit who has been arrested for their involvement in espionage or influence activities. The DCNF previously found that Lu Jianwang, an alleged Chinese spy who was arrested in 2023, had a long history of mingling with Democratic New York Rep. Grace Meng, who herself previously praised the Chinese Communist Party’s “leadership,” according to a separate DCNF investigation.

Lu was allegedly helping operate an illegal Chinese police station in New York City — which the FBI raided in 2023 and was eventually shuttered — that spied on and intimated critics of the Chinese government and was linked to a China-based law enforcement unit that specializes in extraditing Chinese citizens. Chinese operative Chen Jinping was arrested alongside Lu in 2023 for his alleged involvement in the police station.

Lu had received an indirect request from New York’s Chinese consulate to help counter a protest of the Chinese government in 2015, according to his federal indictment. He was also present at a protest against Taiwan in 2023 that was partially orchestrated by the consulate, according to National Review.

“China has an extensive spy and infiltration network in the United States,” John Lee, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and former national security adviser in the Australian government, told the DCNF, noting that New York politicians who have potentially interacted malignly with Chinese operatives should face legal consequences. “I would like to see the federal government publicize these infiltrations and condemn them openly and frequently to alert Americans at all levels of government that this is occurring.”

The State Department, tasked with overseeing U.S. relations with other nations, can take a number of steps to deter Beijing, such as by confronting and issuing warnings to China’s U.S.-based consulates or issuing public condemnations, experts told the DCNF.

In certain cases, the State Department could even expel a diplomat from the U.S., a significant move that would likely be met with an equal response from Beijing. But experts told the DCNF they feel there has been an alarming lack of action from the State Department on the matter, even though the department has an annual budget of over $80 billion. and approximately 70,000 employees domestically and abroad.

“The State Department appears to be doing everything it can to downplay this situation and avoid retaliation from Beijing,” Michael Sobolik, senior fellow at the American Foreign Policy Council, told the DCNF. “Deterrence is just as real in diplomacy as it is in the military realm. The State Department is signaling that it is unwilling to make it painful for Beijing to influence U.S. politics for its own gain. That’s a mistake, one that will leave us vulnerable to future predations from the Chinese Communist Party.”

Hochul said last Wednesday that she had asked the State Department to expel Huang Ping, the highest-ranking diplomat at China’s consulate in New York, given that he frequently coordinated with Sun, according to Politico. However, State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told reporters later that day that Huang did not need to be expelled because he had already left the U.S. at the end of August as his term had ended.

But Huang was seen in New York and serving in his post as of last Thursday, according to public records. China’s Embassy in the U.S. confirmed to the DCNF in a statement this week that Huang is “performing his duties as usual.”

The State Department told the DCNF that diplomats usually have 30 days at the end of their term to leave the U.S. or seek to change their diplomatic status.

“It is possible that they just didn’t do the due diligence to see what was going on. They accepted a talking point that wasn’t fact-checked and took it out publicly. That’s malpractice on their part, but you have to judge whether that’s major malpractice or a little screw-up,” Yates told the DCNF. ” I would think that it’s a degree of laziness on the part of the State Department. There’s also a degree of defensiveness on the part of this administration, which doesn’t want to escalate this because it is an embarrassment to them and an embarrassment to the government of New York.”

Broadly, the Biden administration has faced questions for its handling of U.S.-China relations in recent years, with some critics arguing that Beijing has failed to respond to diplomatic pressure and continues to attempt to undermine the U.S. through a variety of methods, including cyberwarfare, election interference, domestic espionage activities and drug trafficking.

Though New York has become a focal point for China’s influence activities, its malign influence extends well beyond the state and into the rest of the country, director of the China Policy Initiative at AFPI Adam Savit, told the DCNF.

“Unfortunately, New York is only one of many hotspots for CCP spying activity in the U.S.,” Savit said. “In many cases, the federal government has acted too late, or not at all.”

‘We Will Be Relentless’: One. Simple. Trick … And Corporations Scramble To Kill ‘Divisive’ Diversity Policies

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Robby Starbuck has been collecting scalps.

First came Tractor Supply Co. Then John Deere. Most recently, Coors scrapped their participation in the Human Rights Campaign’s (HRC) Corporate Equity Index, a social credit score-style running tally of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) marks for publicly traded companies.

The corporations all dropped their participation in HRC’s index after Starbuck simply started highlighting them in public, amplifying complaints from internal whistleblowers to his massive X (formerly Twitter) following.

Harley Davidson, Ford, Lowe’s and the parent company of Jack Daniels have all joined the ranks of companies that ended their participation in the index and committed to backtracking on woke corporate policies like deploying racial quotas, segregating employees into resource groups based on race and sexuality and celebrating pride events.

Each company announced the policy shift after Starbuck merely shined a spotlight on their practices.

“We’ve shown our teeth here. We’ve shown what we’re capable of. We’ve shown that we will be relentless when a company does not do the right thing, and that we will not stop, will not back down,” Starbuck, a conservative activist who focuses mostly on issues of family, told the Daily Caller.

The First Domino To Fall

Tractor Supply Co. was Starbuck’s first target after an internal whistleblower tipped him off to some of their HRC-compliant policies like providing LGBT and intersectionality training and sponsoring a “family friendly” drag show.

“I didn’t believe it until we vetted the information,” Starbuck told the Caller. “I go to Tractor Supply … I took my kids there every week,” Starbuck said.

But upon review, Starbuck found that the Brentwood, Tennessee-based farm supply company was engaged in things like selling the Queer Agenda card game on their website.

Starbuck released a seven-minute video detailing the company’s comprehensive compliance with the HRC’s index and their CEO Hal Lawton’s support for progressive causes in early June.

WATCH: ‘We Will Be Relentless’: Corporations Scramble To Kill ‘Divisive’ Diversity Policies

He included contact information for the company in the video. What happened next, he told the Caller, was the result of a grassroots campaign of thousands of the company’s customers calling and placing pressure on the company to drop their policies.

Three weeks after his video, Tractor Supply Co. released a statement detailing policy changes that included ending their submission of data to the Human Rights Campaign, eliminating DEI roles and DEI goals and a withdrawal of their carbon emission goals.

“This monumental change is thanks to all of you who supported my work exposing this, to the whistleblowers in Tractor Supply and my fellow farm owners who respectfully spoke up,” Starbuck wrote on X.

Others took notice. “Robbie Starbuck is a hero. He’s a one-man band,” Monica Crowley, a former Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs for the U.S. Treasury Department under President Trump, told the Caller.

“It’s perfectly within the American consumers’ right to understand and decide for themselves whether or not they want to support those companies with their hard earned disposable income,” Crowley said.

Starbuck replicated this model for other companies, continuing to use social media — X in particular — to highlight companies with a largely conservative consumer base for their woke policies.

“When I recognized that a company that depended on conservative consumers had fallen for this woke nonsense, I said they’re probably not the only one.”

Social Credit Scores For Business

The companies all announced they would stop sending data to the HRC, which had previously given many of them high scores on its Corporate Equality Index (CEI).

The CEI is a social credit score-like rating system that awards businesses up to 100 points on a scale that includes criteria like “nondiscrimination policies,” “equitable benefits for LGBTQ+ workers” and “supporting an inclusive culture,” according to their website.

The seemingly innocuous language stands in front of policies that, upon closer inspection, represent explicitly discriminatory policies like requiring companies to buy from suppliers with specific same sex preferences.

“82 percent of rated employers in this year’s CEI have supplier mandates with respect to non-discrimination in place, and 98 percent of these mandates (1105 of 1131 companies) explicitly include sexual orientation and gender identity alongside other named categories,” the HRC touts on its website.

The index also encourages businesses to “provide education, training, and accountability measures on diversity and inclusion in the workplace.” The index specifically mentions the formation of LGBT employee resource groups and “diversity councils.”

“When a company offers ’employee resource groups’ to support workers of certain skin colors or ethnicities, it’s also unwittingly supporting a form of segregation by separating employees based on their immutable characteristics,” Monica Harris, the Executive Director at the Foundation Against Intolerance & Racism (FAIR), told the Daily Caller. “When employers separate people who are supposed to work together, it’s not inclusive; it’s divisive,” she said.

Before breaking with the HRC, some of the businesses courted high scores on their index by setting targets for hiring specific percentages of employees of different racial heritage.

John Deere said they aspired to increase black hires by 85 percent, hispanic hires by 61 percent and Asian hires by 10 percent, according to company documents obtained by Starbuck.

John Deere also apparently tied employee bonuses and pay raises specifically to DEI performance, writing in their 2022 Sustainability report that “DEI is the only global behavioral performance metric upon which salaried employees are evaluated,” according to Starbuck.

They also encouraged employees to snitch on each other. In July, their mandatory code of conduct included a pledge to “report any diversity, equity, or inclusion-related concerns to a manager … ” a screenshot Starbuck took of the code of conduct shows.

John Deere dropped their participation in the HRC’s index after their stock price reached a one-year low and announced it would stop its participation in “social or culture awareness parades, festivals, or events,” following Starbuck’s campaign.

HRC has pushed back against the companies’ rejection of their index in a big way, noting that they would still be indexing companies that choose not to send them data. Their website landing page now has a large graphic highlighting Ford and other companies that rejected their index and says “This Isn’t Just Policy. It’s Personal. Millions of hardworking Americans and their families count on these companies.”

They’ve also returned fire on Starbuck, starting their own pressure campaign against him.

“They’re doing a text and email campaign against me right now,” Starbuck told the Caller. “It’s silly, but in a weird way they’re actually helping me, and I don’t think they realize it. They called me a MAGA weirdo. You’re only proving my point to these major companies that you are a partisan actor. You just said MAGA weirdo. So that means anybody who believes in MAGA that shops in one of these stores at these Fortune 500 companies is going to be thinking, ‘Why are they partnered with a group that calls people who think like me a MAGA weirdo?’”

Many of the companies mentioned the HRC by name in their announcement in policy shifts. A Ford spokesman said their CEO Jim Farley did so because it was the group their employees asked about the most often, according to The Wall Street Journal.

HRC’s President Kelley Robinson said in a statement the decision “will hurt the company’s long-term business success, from employee retention to consumer decisions about how they will spend their dollars.”

Starbuck, however, disagrees.

“If DEI and wokeness were making these companies money, and nobody on my end was making them feel pressure, these companies would not change policy,” he told the Caller.

Some experts note that these extremes are not the only way to go about building an inclusive workspace. Before the DEI craze, companies centered their diversity efforts along non-racial lines like differences in class, geography, religion and political perspective, Harris told the Daily Caller.

“My sense is that companies adopting aggressive, discriminatory DEI policies are out of sync with the current racial landscape in our country, but they don’t realize it,” Harris told the Caller.

“They’re being advised to use a sledgehammer to swat a fly. Does racism still exist in America? Unquestionably, yes. But unlike 60 years ago, race no longer defines the experience of black or white Americans. Increasingly, class, not race, is what’s causing system inequities. As a society, we’ve made tremendous progress in race relations that is being minimized and even ignored and, sadly, many DEI programs lean hard into this distortion of our racial reality,” Harris said.

American corporations spend a pretty penny on DEI training, over $8 billion, according to a review by Harvard’s Iris Bohnet. A McKinsey analysis predicts that number to nearly double by 2026.

While companies are incredibly secretive about the specific figures they spend on DEI initiatives (both Starbuck and the Daily Caller have conducted extensive reviews of HRC-indexed company financials and have been unable to find concrete figures), American educational institutions publicly spend millions on their efforts.

A January analysis by University of Michigan professor Dr. Mark J. Perry found the school was spending over $30 million in salary for employees “whose main duties are to provide DEI programming.”

A 2021 report by the Jefferson Council found the University of Virginia was spending almost $7 million yearly for their DEI efforts.

“I Felt Like I Was Sinning”

Rather than driven by financial motives, the DEI initiatives, incubated at the HRC, are pushed upon companies by their human resources and public relations departments, a nerve center Starbuck likens to “tumors.”

“Those two departments worked in tandem to convince executives you needed to do this or you were going to look racist,” Starbuck told the Caller.

An HR initiative at one of the companies Starbuck took down, Harley-Davidson, apparently encouraged employees to read the book “White Fragility” by author Robin DiAngelo, which among other things, claims “a white supremacist worldview” is “the bedrock of society.”

Other companies encouraged employees to sign LBGT ally pledges. Employees felt pressured to sign the pledges, telling Starbuck they felt they might be fired if they didn’t.

“I thought I would be fired if I didn’t do it. I’m a Christian. I felt like I was sinning by doing it,” Starbuck told the Caller, echoing an employee’s sentiments.

Harley-Davidson even sent white male employees to white male only diversity training, according to Starbuck.

The HR and PR departments are the “nerve center” of these movements, with the CEOs of the companies often wholly unaware of the radical takeovers, Starbuck said.

“They said, ‘Honestly, I watched the video you sent us, and I was shocked. I didn’t know this was going on,’” Starbuck said of some executives he’s spoken to. “‘It’s a real wake up call,’ is the term he used. There were things that were being done that he just didn’t know. He had kind of lost control of a certain department of people, and their ability to just do certain things without him ever knowing about it.”

Outside of the CEOs, many of the companies’ corporate leadership and executive class are simply out of touch with their consumer base, Crowley told the Caller.

These executives tend to all come from the same socioeconomic and educational class, Crowley said.

“There’s tremendous peer pressure to toe the social justice line, policy line, because their social group is all doing it, and that if they refuse to do it, that somehow they would be ostracized from their social group, their economic group, their fellow CEOs,” Crowley said.

Wilfred Reilly, a professor of political science at Arkansas State University, concurred with Crowley’s assessment.

“The root issue here is a total disconnect between an Ivy League and Big 10 educated executive class and hard workers at their own companies … regular Americans who buy motorcycles, heavy equipment and Bud Light,” Reilly told the Caller.

The HR and marketing departments, Starbuck told the Caller, are often spearheaded by young, radical leftists who attach to pseudo-Marxist ideology in college and infect the companies with it.

“The belief system coming out of a lot of colleges that folks have … They think it is their job to inject this stuff into the DNA of a company. Those folks, in many ways, use the fear of CEOs after George Floyd against them to create a lot of the space for wokeness in the workplace, and then it takes on a life zone. It becomes a disease that spreads to every part of the company’s body. And I would say what we’re doing is something akin to removing the tumor.”

While Starbuck has been able to declare victory over many of the companies, he’s not stopping. He has thousands of whistleblowers in his inbox ready to expose more of the over 500 companies who the HRC lists in their index.

“If they were able to shift the Overton window that fast, I realized we could do the same thing by waking up companies to where their customers are,” he told the Caller.

The majority of the companies he’s gone after so far have had largely conservative consumer bases, but Starbuck says it doesn’t have to be solely right-leaning companies who feel the heat.

“If conservatives even just make up 20% of your customer base, you really can’t afford to do things that are just openly sort of discriminatory toward them or violating their values in some way,” Starbuck said.

‘Cleaning Up Kamala’ | TRAILER OUT NOW

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

A couple months ago, Kamala Harris was the worst VP in American history. Now, she’s heralded as the Savior of the Republic.

Suffering from whiplash? We are too. That’s why we set out to expose how this inexplicable 180 happened.

The Daily Caller’s new documentary, “Cleaning Up Kamala,” shows that one doesn’t just become a warm, joyful “Momala” overnight. It takes a whole billion-dollar media effort.

“Cleaning Up Kamala” debuts Sept 13. and is available exclusively for Patriots subscribers. Catch a first glimpse below.

First, the Daily Caller uncovered the true cost of the Defund the Police movement in “Lawless.”  Then “Rigged” exposed the issue Democrats fear most: how their political machine managed to secure Joe Biden the presidency in 2020. Now, with “Cleaning Up Kamala,” we take on a corrupt corporate media establishment that built a new presidential candidate, their candidate, out of whole cloth.

Harris was nobody’s first choice. Voters resoundingly rejected her in the 2020 primaries. Joe Biden chose her as VP to check an identity box, but she proved more incompetent than anyone could have imagine. A revolving door of staffers found it unbearable to work with her. She failed miserably as the border czar and her cackle made everyone uncomfortable. Unsurprisingly, her approval rating stood deep underwater — until she was made into the new Queen of the Democratic Party.

With hilarious clips and insightful interviews, “Cleaning Up Kamala” shows how the media turned this trainwreck into a tulip.

The Daily Caller’s documentary productions are made possible by our faithful Patriots members, and we wouldn’t be able to do it without them. To watch “Cleaning Up Kamala” on Sept. 13, and to help support future investigative documentaries, please consider subscribing.

Enemy Propaganda Exposed: Noam Chomsky Details What Must Happen To Dissenting Voices

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Please revisit the post about the John Campbell video we put up 2 days ago. New thoughts and important new information is available that should influence how we may decide to act on that information.

Secondly, yesterday we worked on the site a bit. There was no landing page, so many of you may have felt there was an issue. It was simply some work being done on the site which we felt would take much less time than it did. Sorry for any concern that may have generated. For the moment, we can assure you everything is A -OK thank you all for staying with us.

1. Enemy propaganda org. CTV ‘News’ takes Canadian authoritarianism to near British standards.

WATCH: Canadian MP, ‘Anyone against lockdowns, mass immigration & trans rights is a Russian operative.

Please watch carefully. Anything counter narrative is now “Russian Propaganda” and any thing Russian must be both wrong, and evil. This is startlingly Orwellian. We have to use the same method and quality of thought on this that we would on anything else. We cannot trust the peer-review process to mean a thing is true, or even as presented. We cannot trust that anything from Goldstein Trump Russia is wrong and intends to hurt. Even though a great deal of Russian disinformation is in fact being deployed across the West to disrupt, divide and weaken our civilization. This is a fact and it is developed and sophisticated. But our own governments are also doing the same to us in order to remove our individual rights. The Trudeau gov’r did in fact use the military and other methods to wage propaganda warfare against Canadians to force the vaxx and covid narratives on us and still are, as well as launching new ones all the time.

2. The main line of effort against us all remains the mass immigration. The rest, true or not, pales in comparison to the threat this real and concurrent line of operation against us represents to us all.

WATCH: Woman ‘can’t take it anymore’ as Haitian migrants squat on her lawn, litter in her yard

3. At some point we must do a deeper dive on this, Trudeau is passing bills that move us from a nation state of individual rights to a communist collectivist state with an all powerful government bill by bill faster than we can keep up.

Link to bill:

https://www.parl.ca/legisinfo/en/bill/44-1/c-293

Full text of Tweet:

New Canadian Pandemic Act has the potential to infringe on civil liberties, violate individuals’ health privacy, grant broad powers to the Minister of Health, and much more.

Bill C-293, the Pandemic Prevention and Preparedness Act, which has passed its first reading before the Senate, aims to establish robust measures to mitigate future pandemics. However, a closer look reveals several concerns related to government overreach, health privacy, possible violations of civil liberties, and unclear priorities.

One of the primary issues is the bill’s establishment and interlinking of surveillance systems for infectious diseases, both domestically and internationally. The extensive data collection proposed—especially with international linkages involving organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE)—raises significant privacy concerns. This could lead to widespread monitoring of citizens’ health data, potentially without their explicit consent.

The legislation also mandates collaboration between the federal government, provincial governments, and Indigenous communities to collect and share health data. This requirement may create data privacy, security, and misuse concerns.

Another troubling aspect is the bill’s broad discretion granted to the Minister of Health and other relevant officials. They are empowered to set pandemic preparedness standards and make far-reaching decisions about public health responses, surveillance, and commercial regulations. The absence of thorough oversight or parliamentary approval for such decisions raises concerns about transparency and accountability, potentially allowing political interests to take precedence over public welfare.

Furthermore, the bill compels the Minister of Health and other officials to “leverage international expertise” by adopting internationally developed pandemic prevention metrics. This could result in Canada aligning with global standards that don’t necessarily reflect its domestic needs, limiting the country’s ability to make independent public health decisions.

In terms of economic impact, the bill targets commercial activities that “disproportionately contribute to pandemic risk,” such as industrial animal agriculture. However, the lack of clarity around what constitutes “disproportionate” could lead to arbitrary decisions, harming industries without solid scientific evidence. This vagueness could spark significant economic disruptions and legal disputes over the scope of such regulations.

The bill’s emphasis on the One Health approach—integrating human, animal, plant, and ecosystem health—may also be problematic. While holistic health is important, this broad approach could lead to sweeping environmental regulations under the guise of pandemic prevention, potentially affecting sectors like farming, forestry, and urban development without clear justifications related to pandemics.

Lastly, the bill allocates substantial resources to global health equity initiatives, raising concerns that domestic resources could be diverted to international efforts.

In summary, while Bill C-293 seeks to enhance pandemic preparedness, its broad language, expanded surveillance powers, and potential for economic disruption pose significant risks. The bill’s lack of transparency and vague definitions could lead to actions that undermine civil liberties, disrupt key industries, and prioritize global interests over Canada’s own.

There is another authoritarian bill we haven’t had time to deal with where the Trudopians plan to make ALL off label use of prescription meds, which I am told is the majority of prescriptions, illegal. Searching for it, I am coming up empty at the moment. So Maybe that isn’t a thing. If I find it, I’ll post it.

4. Whatever you think of this guy and what he says, its a zero in terms of awfulness compared to what Islamic preachers say about all of us all day every day. Frankly, this is kinda refreshing at this point.

One way or another this seems to be the rule we all accept, consciously or unconsciously, conditioned into this concept. The words in the meme below are taken from the sermon of a Canadian imam VERBATIM.

5. This one was left in the comments by Watchmen. It felt like a Christmas present come early.

Noam Chomsky, the guy the left likes to claim is the smartest guy in the world or something, the guy who wrote a book that became a documentary allegedly on freedom of speech called, “Manufacturing Consent” but in reality was only critical of speech that seemed right oriented. At the time he wrote that book he was an active Prof at a US university and no where does he mention University speech codes, which, at the time, was the biggest most obvious restrictions on what could and could not be said in the US of A, and he never mentioned them once, even though present at his own university, from my recollection of the film version of his book.

So here he is talking about how skepticism about Global Warming and the mRNA vaxx which “has to be dealt with and overcome, and very decisively and without delay…”

You know, this doesn’t sound a lot like someone who is a big freedom of speech guy. It sounds like an advocate for a communist collectivist government ready to use force to make sure everyone has right think. Or am I misreading him.

The good news is, you get to hear that within the first 3 minutes in case you fear having to endure the whole 15 of this clip.

Thank you all for checking out this site.

Speaking of Chomsky’s real views on freedom of speech, Tony Blair explains how none of us should have any except purveyors of government narratives, or the wizards of “truth”. This interview is from 3 days ago, and is summarized here.

The Unsinkable Ship Titanic America

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

One of my readers sent this to me this morning. I do not know the original source but it speaks for many of us.

I woke up, and as I had my morning coffee, I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same.

I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life–so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone.

You can’t justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind!

  • If a man pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.
  • Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.
  • Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good.
  • It was cool for Joe Biden to “blackmail” the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it.
  • Twenty is too young to drink a beer, but eighteen is old enough to vote.
  • People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.
  • People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees.
  • Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.
  • Irish doctors and German engineers who want to emigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-banger who jumps the southern fence is welcome.
  • $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not.
  • If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.
  • People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.
  • We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan for us.
  • Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.
  • Criminals are caught and released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it’s a violation of THEIR rights.
  • And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us “racists”?!

Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it’s racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China. We are clearly living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right.

Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water, and is sinking fast.

The choice is yours to make. What will it be?

Time is short, make your choice wisely!

Globalism is a replacement ideology that seeks to reorder the world into one singular, planetary Unistate, ruled by the globalist elite. The globalist war on nation-states cannot succeed without collapsing the United States of America. The long-term strategic attack plan moves America incrementally from constitutional republic to socialism to globalism to feudalism. The tactical attack plan uses asymmetric psychological and informational warfare to destabilize Americans and drive society out of objective reality into the madness of subjective reality. America’s children are the primary target of the globalist predators.

It is time to take a look at what the globalists have in mind for little Johnny and Humanity 2.0. We begin with a history lesson provided by Dr. Michael Rectenwald in his April 14, 2023, article, “Hacking Humanity: Transhumanism“:[i]

The term transhumanism was coined by Julian Huxley, the brother of the novelist Aldous Huxley and the first director-general of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). In an essay entitled “Transhumanism,” published in the book New Bottles for New Wine (1957), Huxley defined transhumanism as the self-transcendence of humanity:

The human species can, if it wishes, transcend itself—not just sporadically, an individual here in one way, an individual there in another way, but in its entirety, as humanity. We need a name for this new belief. Perhaps transhumanism will serve: man remaining man, but transcending himself, by realizing new possibilities of and for his human nature.1

One question for transhumanism is indeed whether this transcendence will apply to the whole human species or rather for only a select part of it. But Huxley gave some indication of how this human self-transcendence might occur: humanity would become “managing director of the biggest business of all, the business of evolution….”2 As the first epigraph to this Part makes clear, Julian Huxley was a proponent of eugenics. And he was the President of the British Eugenics Society.3 It was in his introduction of UNESCO, as the director-general that he suggested that eugenics, after the Nazi regime had given it such a bad name, should be rescued from opprobrium, “so that much that now is unthinkable may at least become thinkable.”4 As John Klyczek has noted, “In the wake of vehement public backlash against the atrocities of the Nazi eugenic Holocaust, Huxley’s eugenics proper was forced to go under-ground, repackaging itself in various crypto-eugenic disguises, one of which is ‘transhumanism.'”5

Contemporary transhumanist enthusiasts, such as Simon Young, believe that humanity can take over where evolution has left us to create a new and improved species—either ourselves, or a successor to ourselves:

We stand at a turning point in human evolution. We have cracked the genetic code; translated the Book of Life. We will soon possess the ability to become designers of our own evolution.6

Transhumanism is simply the latest variation of globalist elitism and supremacist ideology, including its eugenics program disguised as “progress” and “evolutionary biology.” Rectenwald continues with references to Yuval Harari, the writer, historian, and children’s book author discussed in Chapter 33:

In a 2018 World Economic Forum statement, Harari spoke as the self-proclaimed prophet of a new transhumanist age, saying:

We are probably among the last generations of Homo sapiens. Within a century or two, Earth will be dominated by entities that are more different from us, than we are different from Neanderthals or from chimpanzees. Because in the coming generations, we will learn how to engineer bodies and brains and minds. These will be the main products of the 21st century economy.19

No longer capable of mounting a challenge to the elite as in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and having no function, the feckless masses will have no recourse or purpose. Exploitation is one thing; irrelevance is quite another, says Harari. And thus, as Harari sees it, the remaining majority will be condemned to spend their time in the Metaverse, or worse. If they are lucky, they will collect universal basic income (UBI) and will best occupy themselves by taking drugs and playing video games. Of course, Harari exempts himself from this fate.

As for the elite, according to Harari, their supposed superiority to the masses will soon become a matter of biotechnological fact, rather than merely an ideological pretension, as in the past. The elite will not only continue to control the lion’s share of the world’s material resources; they will also become godlike and enjoy effective remote control over their subordinates. Further, via biotechnological means, they will acquire eternal life on Earth, while the majority, formerly consoled by the fact that at least everybody dies, will now lose the great equalizer. As the supernatural is outmoded, or sacrificed on the altar of transhumanism, the majority will inevitably forfeit their belief in a spiritual afterlife. The theistic religions that originated in the Middle East will disappear, to be replaced by new cyber-based religions originating in Silicon Valley. Spirituality, that is, will be nothing but the expression of reverence for newly created silicon gods, whether they be game characters, game designers, or the elites themselves.

The stunning hubris of the globalist elite is rivaled only by the danger of its collaboration with government. This collaboration between business and government is the military-industrial complex President Eisenhower warned the nation about in his 1961 Farewell Address:[ii]

A vital element in keeping the peace is our military establishment. Our arms must be mighty, ready for instant action, so that no potential aggressor may be tempted to risk his own destruction.

Our military organization today bears little relation to that known by any of my predecessors in peace time, or indeed by the fighting men of World War II or Korea.

Until the latest of our world conflicts, the United States had no armaments industry. American makers of plowshares could, with time and as required, make swords as well. But now we can no longer risk emergency improvisation of national defense; we have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions…. This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience…. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications…. In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist….

Akin to, and largely responsible for the sweeping changes in our industrial-military posture, has been the technological revolution during recent decades.

In this revolution, research has become central; it also becomes more formalized, complex, and costly. A steadily increasing share is conducted for, by, or at the direction of, the Federal government.

Today, the solitary inventor, tinkering in his shop, has been overshadowed by task forces of scientists in laboratories and testing fields. In the same fashion, the free university, historically the fountainhead of free ideas and scientific discovery, has experienced a revolution in the conduct of research. Partly because of the huge costs involved, a government contract becomes virtually a substitute for intellectual curiosity. For every old blackboard there are now hundreds of new electronic computers.

The prospect of domination of the nation’s scholars by Federal employment, project allocations, and the power of money is ever present and is gravely to be regarded.

Yet, in holding scientific research and discovery in respect, as we should, we must also be alert to the equal and opposite danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite.

President Eisenhower predicted the globalist enemy within. His prescient warning is now 21st-century reality and the existential threat to our constitutional republic. Eisenhower’s reference to research and the domination of the nation’s scholars is today’s politicized education industry that includes politicized law and medicine. From preschool to advanced degrees, ideological experts have indoctrinated Americans against America for seven decades. Indoctrinated graduates entered their chosen fields as “experts” who began indoctrinating the next generation, who then indoctrinated the next.

We are in the throes of an informational and psychological culture war. There are no bullets in this war. I often reflect on the saying “The pen is mightier than the sword.” Its profound meaning lies in the fact that thought precedes behavior. If you can change people’s thinking, you can change their behavior. It is the operating principle foundational to educational indoctrination and thought reform––the primary weapons of the information/psychological globalist War on America.

Weaponized education is bludgeoning society with anti-American collectivist ideology in every sector of life. The Marxification of education (Chapter 29) is enhanced with Artificial Intelligence (AI), the prize of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. AI is the medium and the message.

Educational reformer John Klyczek, referenced above in the Rectenwald article “Hacking Humanity,” is the author of School World Order: The Technocratic Globalization of Corporatized Education.[iii] Klyczek explores the hidden dangers of AI’s robot companions in his June 13, 2023, informational video, “Moxie and the Great Reset: How Moxie the Robot Uses GPT AI to Data-Mine Your Kids’ Socioemotional-Learning Algorithms.“[iv]

Moxie is the latest creation of California artificial intelligence company Embodied, which develops companion robots. Moxie, who looks like Star Wars‘ robotic droid R2-D2 but is able to communicate like the humanoid C-3PO, was originally designed as a robot companion for children with social and emotional deficits. Considered assistive technology, the premise was that the companion robot would help autistic and mentally retarded children with the anxiety they experience in human interactions.

Klyczek explains:

Moxie is marketed as a “Helping Friend” that substitutes human caretakers and replaces them as robo-babysitters that monitor disabled children during parent-therapist conferences…. Of course, over time, just like transhuman ed-tech, robotic AI ed-tech will eventually creep more and more into mainstream classroom integration until it is employed to boost competence outcomes for students classified as healthy and able-bodied.

Klyczek discusses the capability of augmented robot systems (ARS) for children’s storytelling activities. The ARS are able to measure children’s levels of satisfaction, sensory immersion, and media recognition. This is significant because these areas correspond to the CASEL wheel, discussed in Chapter 20, that measures Social and Emotional Learning (SEL). Satisfaction corresponds to interest, sensory immersion to engagement, and media [robot] recognition to empathy.

Klyczek exposes several areas of serious concern to parents:

  • Moxie will be expanded—used in general classroom for SEL goals
  • Data mining of student bio-psychometrics
  • Facial recognition for emotional reactions
  • Replaces human interactions
  • Using children to enhance manufacturer’s own GPT-AI capacity
  • Funded by WEF Partners Amazon, Intel, Sony, Toyota
  • Deeply entrenched in global corporate technocracy network with over 60 overlapping memberships between WEF and Trilateral Commission, Club of Rome, United Nations, World Bank, and Bilderberg
  • Represented at 2023 Bilderberg Meeting by Sam Altman, Microsoft, DeepMind (Google), Google
  • Moxie stores much of its data in Google Cloud
  • Moxie retains text files of whatever the child says before deleting the actual audio file
  • Moxie retains data points of facial expressions before it deletes the actual photo
  • Embodied retains access to all information even though it cannot link it to a specific user

The hidden goals of Moxie, the “Helping Friend,” are data mining your children, enhancing the AI capabilities of companion robots for the manufacturer, and grooming your children for interaction with robots rather than humans, and for life in the 21st-century globalist Unistate. The information collected is a treasure trove of data for social engineering in the classroom, and another surreptitious method of separating children from their parents without parental knowledge.

The political parallels between teaching whole-word reading and using augmented robots for teaching are disturbing. Both began and were marketed as systems to help children with disabilities. Both were (or, in the case of Moxie, will be) subsequently applied to normal children, with catastrophic outcomes, for political gain. As discussed in Chapter 5, the detrimental effects on children’s brains and their ability to actually read the written word in English were known as early as 1955, when Rudolph Flesch exposed the whole-word method as the culprit in his book, Why Johnny Can’t Read: and what you can do about it.

The damage done by the American education industry in its insistence on teaching children to read using whole words is well documented. Yet whole-word methodology continues and has been expanded from whole-word reading to the Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child[v] model (WSCC) by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The CDC website describes WSCC in predictably glowing terms. It is essential for parents to recognize the staggering Marxist dualism in WSCC and its 10 Components. Parents are presented with familiar, constructive terms that do not at all mean what parents understand them to mean. For example, “integration and collaboration between education leaders and health sectors” is actually the collaboration between teachers, counselors, psychologists, sexuality instructors, etc., to indoctrinate American children in radical leftist norms. The “student-centered” approach is actually the total immersion of the students in anti-American, anti-family, anti-Judeo-Christian propaganda without parental knowledge. From CDC’s website:

Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC)

The education, public health, and school health sectors have each called for greater alignment that includes integration and collaboration between education leaders and health sectors to improve each child’s cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development. Public health and education serve the same children, often in the same settings. The Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child (WSCC) model focuses on the child to align the common goals of both sectors to put into action a whole child approach to education.

What is the WSCC model?

The Whole School, Whole Community, Whole Child, or WSCC model, is CDC’s framework for addressing health in schools. The WSCC model is student-centered and emphasizes the role of the community in supporting the school, the connections between health and academic achievement and the importance of evidence-based school policies and practices. The WSCC model has 10 Components:

  1.  Physical education and physical activity.
  2.  Nutrition environment and services.
  3.  Health education.
  4.  Social and emotional climate.
  5.  Physical environment.
  6.  Health services.
  7.  Counseling, psychological and social services.
  8.  Employee wellness.
  9.  Community involvement.
  10.  Family engagement.

The CDC prides itself on the collaboration between government and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to finance its WSCC initiatives:

Funded Non-Governmental Organizations for Healthy Schools

Through the National Collaboration to Promote Health, Wellness, and Academic Success of School-Age Children, CDC Healthy Schools funds five national non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to complement and strengthen the work of State Public Health Actions grantees. These NGOs support the 1305 granteesand their organization’s constituents to promote and implement proven policies, practices, and programs in at least one of the following school health priority areas:

Priority Area 1—Physical Education and Physical Activity in Schools
Priority Area 2—School Nutrition Environment and Services
Priority Area 3—Out of School Time Healthy Eating and Physical Activity
Priority Area 4—School Health Services for Managing Chronic Conditions

The NGOs that support the following priority areas are:

CDC Healthy Schools also funds the National Association of Chronic Disease Directors (NACDD) to provide technical assistance and professional development activities that will build the capacity of state health departments. This will equip school health and education leaders with greater knowledge, skills, and abilities to implement proven strategies that create healthier environments for students. Initiatives such as these are essential to help leaders from across the country access practical tools and resources to promote the health [including mental health] of their student population.

SHAPE America (SHAPE is an acronym for the Society of Health and Physical Educators) is a particularly notable NGO. Its website, shapeamerica.org,[vi] proudly features its alignment with National Sex Education Standards:[vii]

National Sex Education Standards

SHAPE America is proud to have worked with the Future of Sex Education (FoSE) and the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS) as a contributor and reviewer in the development of the National Sex Education Standards: Core Content and Skills, K–12 (Second Edition). SHAPE America is also proud to officially endorse the final document.

These latest standards reflect advancement in research regarding sexual orientation, gender identity, social, racial and reproductive justice, and the long-term consequences of stigma and discrimination. Other additions include: advances in medical technology, the emergence of digital technologies and the growing impact of social and sexually explicit media on relationships.

Readers will remember that SIECUS is an ideological and political instrument for social change. SIECUS proudly describes its goals in the acknowledgements section of the National Sex Education Standards, second edition:

Through policy, advocacy, education, and strategic communications efforts, SIECUS advances sex education as a vehicle for social change—working toward a world where all people can access and enjoy their own sexual and reproductive freedom.

Parents need to understand the deceptive way words are being used. The definition of physical health includes sexual health, and the definition of sexual health is inclusive. “Inclusive” is defined by diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) standards, which means sexual health includes presenting transgenderism and every iteration of non-binary gender identification as normal variations on a theme of non-binary sexuality. Male/female heterosexuality is no longer the accepted norm; every conceivable form of sexual behavior, including pedophilia, is presented as a normal variation of inclusive sexual behavior.

There are no restrictions on sexual behavior or gender identity in a society that has been driven into subjective reality, where feelings rather than facts determine social policy. The entire American education industry is collaborating in the usurpation of parental authority by adopting CDC guidelines that are themselves aligned with the United Nations’ internationalized curricula for education, including sex education.

Child psychiatrist Dr. Miriam Grossman (Chapter 31) is an unapologetic and outspoken advocate for children’s mental health. She has written an essential book to help parents understand the horrific ideological collaboration between our weaponized education and judicial systems, particularly Child Protective Services (CPS). Together, they have redefined “mental health” in political terms, and are participating in a joint effort to replace parental authority with government-approved radical gender ideology.

CPS considers the homes of parents whose conservative views insist on the scientific facts of biology to be abusive and unsafe environments for children. CPS is empowered by the state to remove the children from the home and rehome them. This is an Orwellian reality, and extremely dangerous for the children, for their parents, and for America. Biological sex, gender, and sexual behavior have been weaponized in America by the enemies of freedom. The cultural terrorism that Hungarian Marxist George Lucács unsuccessfully attempted in Bolshevik Hungary in 1918 is effectively collapsing America from within in 2024.

Dr. Grossman’s book, Lost in Trans Nation: A Child Psychiatrist’s Guide Out of the Madness,[viii] is an essential tool for parents whose children remain in American schools, both public and private. The book begins with a Dedication:

This book is dedicated to the parents of kids with Rapid-Onset Gender Dysphoria and to the groups who support them.

I spoke with you from your cars, basements, and bathrooms. You huddled and whispered behind closed doors, as if seeking my help was criminal behavior. You’re not criminals, you are heroes. The criminals are the therapists, teachers, school counselors, and sex educators who indoctrinate your children with falsehoods, and the doctors who then disfigure and sterilize them. They are guilty of crimes. Their day will come. (p. ix)

Before the Introduction, Dr. Grossman includes A Note on Language:

We face a crusade, a juggernaut, that seeks to demolish male and female, and its success hinges on the control of language. Under those circumstances, to call a man “she” is not a kindness, it’s a concession—to a scheme to control our beliefs and advance an agenda, one pronoun at a time.

In this book, I emphasize that male and female, after being established at conception, are permanent. I urge parents to be honest and consistent with their children, and to at all times stay grounded in biological reality. I have always done that in my office, and I’m not going to stop now. (p. xxv)

Dr. Grossman continues:

For me this is a black-and-white issue. Most things in life are nuanced, but this is not one of them. This is—and here’s a word you don’t expect to hear from a doctor—evil. It’s evil to indoctrinate children and young adults with falsehoods and to drive a wedge between them and their loving parents. It’s evil to encourage them on a path that leads to harm. And it’s evil to describe it all as a journey to authenticity, and to entice children with glitter and rainbows….

The trans issue is not a debate with reasonable and moral people on both sides, it’s a war. It’s a destructive, cult-like crusade that targets your children 24/7; there’s hardly a place that’s free from indoctrination, slogans, flags, and emojis. You must gird yourselves with knowledge, confidence, and support and oppose the onslaught as much as possible….

Starting with new names and pronouns and ending too often in the operating rooms, the trans journey is an assembly line. One step leads to another, and it’s difficult to get off, so your goal is to prevent your child from ever climbing on…. (p. xxx)

I regret to inform you that with this matter, the sources you’ve always trusted—your child’s school, pediatrician, and therapist—will likely provide ideologically driven misinformation. They will direct you and your child down a perilous path….

I’ll explain that transgender ideology is a system of beliefs, like a religion. It has a unique language and [10] Articles of Faith. While the language and beliefs are bizarre, they are taught as sacred facts. The core belief––that biology can and should be denied—is a repudiation of reality…. (p. xxxi)

I will explain how the American Psychiatric Association (APA) reclassified gender disorders as normal variations of human expression—another dangerous idea. (p. xxxiii)

Articles of Faith

Behold GENDER IDENTITY; it liberated you from oppression, from the harsh constraints of biology.

GENDER IDENTITY is sacred; thou shalt not question it; thou shalt not turn away from it to hard science, for GENDER IDENTITY is jealous and cannot tolerate the scientific method.

Remember GENDER IDENTITY, to keep it holy. Behold, it is both fixed and fluid; healthy and needing drugs and surgeries; do not admit contradictions.

Thou shalt consider “male” and “female” arbitrary assignments; thou shalt deny their establishment at conception.

Thou shalt affirm all gender identities with all your heart and all your soul, so that you will be an ally and keep your livelihood.

Do not misgender [use a pronoun other than the one chosen by the adherent].

Do not deadname [use the adherent’s birth name].

Thou shalt not explore anxiety, ADHD, trauma, or autism; thou shalt always invoke the minority stress model [the hypothesis that sexual minority health disparities are produced by the social stress faced by sexual minority populations due to their stigmatized status].

Thou shalt honor the self-diagnosis and judgment of minors and young adults. Thou shalt not recognize their emotional and cognitive immaturity.

Gatekeeping is an abomination. Thou shalt therefore scorn psychotherapy, and place your trust in breast binding, penis-and-testicle-tucking, pills, patches, syringes, scalpels, implants, and prosthetics. (p. xxxx)

But of all the lies and dangerous ideas promoted, Dr. Grossman says the most pernicious one is that gender affirmation is the only safe and ethical treatment! If you don’t support your child, he’s at high risk of suicide.

Dr. Grossman explains that gender dysphoria (GD) is a symptom, and symptoms can be caused by a variety of conditions. Further, gender dysphoria is complex and is different at different ages of onset. She distinguishes three types of GD: adult-onset, early-onset in young children, and late- or adolescent-onset in teens and young adults. The resolution of gender dysphoria is called desistance. In 1994, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition, stated that “only a very small number of children with gender identity disorder [as it was called then] will continue to have symptoms…in later adolescence or adulthood.”

In other words, it is a stage of development that usually corrects itself without intervention. Before 2012, the onset of gender identity disorder was practically unheard of. In 2018, Dr. Lisa Littman, a Brown University physician, researcher, and academic, noticed an unusual trend in her small town. “Teens from the same friend group were announcing transgender identities on social media, one after another, on a scale that greatly exceeded expected numbers.” (Lost in Trans Nation, p. 40)

Dr. Littman began investigating and found that adolescents and young adults were suddenly experiencing gender dysphoria for the first time. She coined the term Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria (ROGD) to describe the new phenomenon. Dr. Littman theorized that “these kids may have rapidly adopted a transgender identity as a ‘maladaptive coping mechanism to avoid feeling strong or negative emotions.'” (Lost in Trans Nation, p. 41)

Dr. Littman was worried that the teens were not being screened for pre-existing and current mental health issues. Instead, they were being fast-tracked for gender affirmation and transition. Dr. Littman wrote about “cluster outbreaks” and explained them as “social contagion.” She discussed the limitations of her research, and strongly recommended further study and the careful evaluation of distressed teenagers before the use of treatments that have permanent effects such as cross-sex hormones and surgery.

Dr. Littman went further and confronted the gender establishment narrative, saying that social and medical affirmation may cause “an iatrogenic persistence of gender dysphoria in individuals who would have had their gender dysphoria resolve on its own.” (Lost in Trans Nation, p. 46) Iatrogenic is any harm caused by a medical intervention.

The medical community came out vehemently against Dr. Lisa Littman, in the same way it pilloried British gastroenterologist Dr. Andrew Wakefield when he questioned the safety of the multi-dose measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and its possible connection to autism in children. Instead of appropriately investigating Dr. Littman’s concerns, the medical and gender establishment attacked her and presented gender-affirming care as settled science—a particularly dangerous lie.

Dr. Miriam Grossman courageously exposes the institutional capture of American medicine by radical Marxist gender ideology. She denounces its resultant gender-affirming care as political medicine, which is endangering an entire generation of children with ideological medicine and ideological indoctrination in school.

Lost in Trans Nation: A Child Psychiatrist’s Guide Out of the Madness is an extraordinary examination of the transgender movement, its psychosocial dynamics, and its political purpose. The book concludes with helpful appendices of practical information and important suggestions for parents dealing with schools, CPS, therapists, and the Internet.

Dr. Grossman’s message is heroic and crystal clear: Parents must arm themselves with accurate information in order to protect their precious children from a “perilous social movement that erases ‘male’ and ‘female’ and aims to revolutionize what it means to be human.”

The Global Scam Network: A Deep Dive into International Fraud

/in , , , , , , , , , , , /by

In the age of digital globalization, scams have become a widespread problem, often orchestrated from across the globe. While scam stories are far from new, the evolving nature of fraud, the countries from which they originate, and the staggering financial losses for the United States require fresh analysis.

Key Scam Originating Countries

Several nations have been linked to high levels of fraud targeting American citizens and businesses, ranging from phishing and romance fraud to business email compromise (BEC). Here’s a breakdown of the most prominent ones:

  • Nigeria: Nigeria has long been associated with various forms of fraud, especially email scams, commonly known as “Nigerian Prince” scams. In recent years, sophisticated fraud networks have emerged, often involving cybercrime syndicates. These groups use social engineering tactics, romance scams, and fake business proposals to siphon billions from unsuspecting victims worldwide. The FBI estimates that Nigerian BEC scams alone result in losses of over $1.8 billion annually globally.
  • India: India has seen a rise in fraudulent call centers that target American consumers. These scams often involve tech support fraud, IRS impersonation scams, or fake credit card services. Criminal networks run many operations in cities like Delhi and Mumbai, where scammers impersonate IRS or Microsoft representatives. In 2022, it was estimated that tech support fraud originating from India led to losses exceeding $347 million in the U.S.
  • China: Chinese scammers are often linked to counterfeit goods, intellectual property theft, and fraudulent online marketplaces. China’s rise as a global e-commerce powerhouse has also enabled fraudsters to use platforms to sell fake products, affecting the fashion and pharmaceutical industries. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce reported that Chinese counterfeit scams cost the U.S. economy upwards of $600 billion annually.
  • Russia: Russian cybercriminals have become some of the most notorious worldwide. They are frequently linked to sophisticated hacking schemes and ransomware attacks. Russian crime groups target American corporations, government institutions, and critical infrastructure. The Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack in 2021, for instance, which was attributed to Russian hackers, resulted in a payout of $4.4 million in Bitcoin.
  • The Philippines: Call center scams, especially related to online dating, romance fraud, and fake investments, often originate from the Philippines. Scammers build elaborate counterfeit profiles, usually targeting emotionally vulnerable Americans. In 2023 alone, the FBI reported that romance scams from the Philippines resulted in over $700 million in losses.

The Growing Threat of gift cards scams

A significant and growing portion of the fraud ecosystem revolves around gift card scams. Scammers increasingly prefer gift cards to defraud people, as they are easy to purchase, widely available, and provide minimal protection for the buyer.

According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), one in four people who report losing money to fraud have fallen victim to gift card scams. Typically, these scams begin with a phone call from someone posing as a well-known – demanding the numbers on the back of gift cards to resolve a “security issue” or prevent arrest.

Popular Targets for Gift Card Scams

Target gift cards have become the most frequently reported brand for scams, followed by Google Play, Apple, eBay, and Walmart.

Scammers often instruct victims to purchase cards from retailers like Target, Walmart, Best Buy, CVS, and Walgreens, ensuring anonymity and complicating law enforcement efforts.

Scammers typically coach victims to purchase multiple gift cards across various locations and to remain on the phone with the scammer to prevent interference from store employees.

Between 2018 and 2021, gift card scams increased yearly, with total losses reaching $148 million in just the first nine months of 2021. The median loss for victims of these scams rose from $700 to $1,000 during this period, with Target gift cards accounting for a median loss of $2,500 – 30% of victims reported losing $5,000 or more on a single Target card.

If someone demands payment via gift card, it is unequivocally a scam. Gift cards should be used for gifts, not payments. Victims are encouraged to report fraud to the card issuer and file a complaint with the FTC.

Fresh Insights: Emerging Scam Hubs

While the countries above remain at the forefront, newer countries are joining the ranks of global scam hubs driven by economic inequality, weak regulatory oversight, and internet access.

  • Eastern Europe: Countries like Ukraine, Romania, and Bulgaria are becoming hotbeds for digital fraud and cybercrime. These nations host many fraudulent websites, phishing networks, and money laundering operations. Losses attributed to Eastern European fraud networks are challenging to quantify, but they are believed to contribute significantly to global BEC losses, estimated to cost the U.S. $43 billion since 2016.
  • Ghana: Known as “the new Nigeria” regarding online romance scams, Ghana is becoming a significant player in defrauding American citizens. Many Ghanaian scammers pose as U.S. military personnel stationed abroad, developing relationships with their targets before requesting money. In 2022, U.S. losses from romance scams tied to Ghana reached over $300 million.

Quantifying the Financial Impact

Quantifying the amount of money lost to scams is challenging, as many victims are reluctant to report their losses. However, estimates suggest that the annual cost to the United States alone is staggering. According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC),

The FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) recorded over 800,000 complaints in 2022 alone, with reported losses exceeding $10 billion – a 60% increase from the previous year

Yes, Americans lost billions of dollars to scams in recent years. Here’s a snapshot of the financial toll on the U.S. from scams in just the last few years:

  • Business Email Compromise (BEC): $2.4 billion in 2021 losses
  • Phishing schemes: $1 billion in 2022 losses
  • Romance scams: $1.3 billion in 2022 losses: Victims are lured into romantic relationships with scammers who ultimately exploit them financially.
  • Tech support fraud: $347 million in 2022 losses: Scammers pose as technical support representatives to gain access to victims’ computers and steal personal information.
  • Investment scams: Victims are promised high returns on investments that are ultimately fraudulent.
  • Phishing scams: Scammers send emails or messages to trick victims into revealing sensitive information.
  • Ransomware attacks: Roughly $20 billion in global economic damages in 2022, much of it targeting U.S. institutions

Beyond the Numbers

The financial toll of scams extends far beyond monetary losses. Victims often suffer emotional distress, damaged credit, and a loss of trust in others. In some cases, the psychological impact can be severe, leading to depression and even suicide.

Why America is a Primary Target

  • High Disposable Income: Scammers target the U.S. because of its vast population of individuals with higher disposable incomes. Americans are more likely to have access to credit, savings, and online banking.
  • Advanced Technology Infrastructure: While the U.S. leads in technology adoption, it is more vulnerable to cyber-attacks and online scams, exploiting the systems designed to offer convenience.
  • Weak International Coordination: Despite efforts, international law enforcement needs help to keep up with cybercrime’s ever-evolving nature. The lack of cohesive international regulations and jurisdictional challenges enables scammers in foreign nations to operate with impunity.

Combating the Global Scam Epidemic and the Road Ahead

Addressing the global scam epidemic requires a multifaceted approach. Governments, law enforcement agencies, and technology companies must work together to:

  • Enhance law enforcement cooperation: Strengthen international collaboration to track and prosecute scammers.
  • Improve consumer education: Raise awareness about common scams and provide tips on how to protect oneself.
  • Strengthen cybersecurity measures: Develop and implement robust security protocols to prevent scammers from exploiting vulnerabilities.
  • Support victim recovery: Offer resources and support to victims of scams.

As fraudsters continue to adapt and exploit new vulnerabilities, international coalitions must focus on intelligence sharing, cybersecurity investment, and policy enforcement. Another critical strategy is to empower consumers with better education about emerging scam tactics.

In the age of hypoconnectivity, the battle against scams has indeed become a global one. However, with innovative approaches to cybersecurity and international cooperation, there’s hope that the financial hemorrhaging from the U.S. to global scam hubs can be curtailed.

By understanding the origins of global scams and their devastating impact on individuals and communities, we can take steps to combat this growing threat and protect ourselves from becoming victims.

EXCLUSIVE: Law School Offers Course That Explores Rise Of ‘Authoritarian Christianist Nationalism’ In ‘Age Of Trump’

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

A top public university’s law school is offering a class this fall that aims to explore the U.S.’ political shift towards “authoritarian Christianist nationalism” in the “age of Trump,” according to an email obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The University of Colorado Boulder’s Law School class, titled “Statutory Interpretation,” is offered to second-year law students and will hinge on topics of relevance in the current election season, including former president Donald Trump’s legal battles and the Supreme Court’s supposed “legitimacy crisis,” professor Paul Campos told students in an email obtained by DCNF. Campos noted in the email that the course could be more aptly named “The Crisis of the American Legal System in the Age of Trump.”

“[It] isn’t surprising that [the school would] offer such a course, but it is disappointing,” a law student who alerted the DCNF of the course said, mentioning multiple instances of similar bias experienced at the school. The student requested anonymity in order to “avoid retaliation” from the school.

“When I learned constitutional law, I learned it from a professor that openly called for the rewriting of the constitution. Students in that same class complained about the fact that “non-college educated” voters in rural America could affect elections at all,” the student told the DCNF. Professors at the university, he said, “tout the likes of Ginsburg and Sotomayor, reading their opinions as though it were gospel. I have yet to hear critiques on the liberal justices, but I often hear critiques on the likes of Justice Gorsuch, who once taught at the school.”

Course topics will include abortion and the “current legitimacy crisis” of the Supreme Court and will discuss how they create a “fundamental threat to social and political national stability,” according to the email.

The course will also examine “the extent to which the American legal and political systems are being pushed toward some variety of authoritarian Christianist nationalism, with potentially fascistic overtones” and “the perils of presidentialism.” Some of the required readings for the course include several books on fascism as well as Ta-Nehisi Coates’ 2017 Atlantic article, The First White President, which attributes the election of Trump and other white presidents to the “bloody heirloom” of “whiteness.”

“It is absurd that a public university in this age would push the narrative that there is a secret cabal being pushed by members of a religion to overthrow the government,” the student said. “I’ve heard professors and students alike joke and insult Christianity for being backwards. It’s no wonder that someone is now teaching to fear it as a course.”

Campos, an ardent Trump critic, wrote in 2016 that the former president is a “total moron” who represents “every horrible personality trait and political instinct that fueled the Reagan revolution.” When then-president Trump was hospitalized briefly with COVID-19 in 2020, Campos wrote in a blog post that the president’s death would be a “blessed event,” saying, “I just want him to die,” according to Campus Reform.

The University of Colorado settled a lawsuit in February with Campos in which he received a six-figure payout, according to the Denver Post. Campos sued the university after he received a low annual review score, which he attributed to discrimination.

“The university is creating activists, soon to be sheathed in the power of the law,” the student warned. “Those activists are being taught to despise conservatives and view them as lessers through courses like this one.”

The university and course professor did not respond to the DCNF’s requests for comment.

KAMALA — The Imposter and Worse!

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

There are political campaigns, especially at the national level, that massage the belief you can fool many people some of the time and on many issues. We are witnessing such a tactic with the propaganda platforms (former news media) and the highly scripted behavior of Kamala. Presenting Kamala Harris to the American public is a horrendous uphill battle for the Socialist Democrats.

WATCH: Kamala Harris is an Insecure Imposter

Kamala is truly unpopular by past and present staff and many who have had to deal with her. Her unlikability is matched, if not exceeded, by her glaring lack of insight, critical thinking problem solving, and true qualifications versus the script she was given to follow when she was initially offered public office in exchange for her sexual services to then California Speaker of the House and political matchmaker, Willie Brown. Kamala Harris remains a seriously flawed candidate with a proven record of corruption, dishonesty, and radically socialist Marxist ideology. Compounding this heinous reality is her annoying “Joker-like laugh that could break glass” and possibly your TV, which is why we hit mute every time her contrived commercial comes on the set.

Additionally, Kamala is most adept at “political speech,” the learned ability to flip-flop on positions but continue smiling while dodging questions, real interviews, real exposure of the candidate’s true beliefs. Cheryl Chumley of The Washington Times publication wrote in her latest column, “Kamala Harris flip-flopping on policy is like a dying fish. She’s racing so fast to flee the very positions she’s taken as a senator and as a partner-in-crime to President Biden’s tremendously ineffective and destructive White House policies….”

The Democrat Party has morphed into a political nightmare hurting America most harmfully. Their continuation of socialist platforms and beliefs from Clinton to Obama, Biden to now Kamala has brought our nation to the very brink of collapse, domestically, as well as internationally. Kamala clearly demonstrates a real scorn, disdain, resentment for our Constitution and founding principles, and is scheduled to bring the United States collapse into the One-World Government launched with only Presidents Reagan and Trump getting in the way to delay the fulfillment of that already written script.
While Kamala and company smear anything MAGA or even related, there is growing amounts of evidence to present that Kamala, running mate Waltz (exposed liar and ally to the Chinese Communist Party) the White House, throughout the executive branch of government and even parts of congress endorse the ideology of communism. While the numbers of adherents are still small, they have gained positions of incredible power and influence to effectively change the course of America in a direction our founders would have never guessed possible given what they sacrificed and gave to us as a gift, “if we would keep it.”

Make America Great Again is simply based on the very principles our founders presented, the Rule of Law, not rule of politics, the premise that WE THE PEOPLE have an absolute say in the direction and beliefs of our country, quite opposite of what the Socialist Democrats have conjured up and push, even in our elementary schools. America was never, ever to become a totalitarian tyranny run by avowed communists hell-bent on managing every aspect of our lives, freedoms and fortunes.

When a candidate lacks true values, political speech is substituted for expediency which then is easily manipulated to fit any occasion or audience. Kamala adopting Trump policies and positions to gain ground and off-set her incompetence and strong appearance of being unfit for office is such an example of lacking true American values but substituting those from another regardless of her own measurable history. Please don’t be fooled. The very existence of our nation is at stake, and I am NOT being theatrical!

Thank goodness for the Population Research Institute. Somebody is telling us the truth about the world birth dearth

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Steven Mosher is his own man: an attribute, which, in our corrupt epoch, is a decided disadvantage. Thinking for oneself, no matter the mania, fad or fashion into which the mass of humanity is herded, has cost him dearly. Those of us “bitter clingers” who still value archaic concepts such as integrity understand that elite opprobrium comes with the territory of not selling your soul to get ahead.

Yet get ahead he has. Mr. Mosher is president of the Population Research Institute, thus he knows a thing or two about demography.

[The Institute’s] core values hold that people are the world’s greatest resource. PRI’s goals are to educate on this premise, to expose the myth of overpopulation, and to expose human rights abuses committed in population control programs. Our growing, global network of pro-life groups spans over 80 countries.

They’ve got some heavy lifting to do. So Mr Mosher didn’t mince words in a profound New York Post piece that speaks volumes about the state of our world.

Just the facts

His essay is headlined “The world is running out of children as birthrates are collapsing across the globe.”Clickbait? Drama? I know, NYP does play to the crowd. But his straightforward essay simply lays out the facts:

The collapse in birth rates that began in post-war Europe has, in the decades since, spread to every single corner of the globe.

Many nations are already feeling this death spiral, filling more coffins than cradles each year.

Just this past year, Japan lost nearly a million people, Poland 130,000. [That’s over 100 every hour]

The big story comes from China, home to one-sixth of the world’s population.

The decades-long devastation wrought by the one-child policy has sent that country, for centuries the pacesetter in population, into absolute decline.

China finally admitted that its population was shrinking, but demographers — including myself — believe that the numbers have actually been falling for almost a decade.

The Chinese government’s official population figure of 1.44 billion also greatly exaggerates its overall numbers, some analysts say by as much as 130 million people.

India, the country that has now overtaken China in population, is still growing, but not for long.

The average Indian woman was having only two children over her reproductive lifetime, the Indian government reported in 2021, well below the 2.25 or so needed to sustain the current population.

The same story is being repeated all over the world, as birthrates in Latin America, the Middle East, and even Africa are not just falling — they are collapsing.

Has he left anything out? Not since the bubonic plague has there been a similar culling of the human species like that into which we are headed. Homo sapiens has been around an estimated 60,000 years. Perhaps advanced civilizations are aberrations. We are surely dismantling those temporal achievements by not reproducing ourselves.

Did I mention that Mr Mosher is a veteran China hand? He was recognised as such early on when President Jimmy Carter facilitated his studying in China, this in the days before Westerners could simply come and go to the Middle Kingdom. China has made great strides of late, but the government tightly “manages” information, especially about demography. It is not good to not look good. University of Wisconsin demographer Dr Yi Fuxian has warned us for years about cooked population stats handed down by the Politburo.

But what is new here? Mercator’s stable of writers has already told us as much about the impending – already underway – demographic collapse. It is thanks to the tireless work of Mr Mosher and his ilk that we can do so.

My take: It is time to stop beating around the bush about population collapse. Nothing short of a social revolution is required to turn things around. By that, I mean a reordering of values and priorities towards a family-centric rather than profit-centric world. Mammon worship has clearly failed us.

Disinformation

Candor aside, Mr. Mosher’s message is also valuable as an information strategy. Hear me out. The popular press, such as “tabloid” New York Post, is largely off the radar of chattering elites; appearing in its pages disseminates important information apart from the dysfunctional thinking and censorious filtering of legacy media. Mr Mosher:

Now you may be excused for not knowing about the current birth dearth.

After all, powerful international agencies like the UN Population Fund and the World Bank have done their best to keep it out of the public eye.

Moreover, these agencies, set up during the height of the hysteria over “overpopulation” in the 1960s, like to overestimate births in one country, and pad population numbers in another.

Sounds like a conspiracy theorist – until you understand that yes, Virginia, governments, NGOs, etc. lie all the time about population, fertility, wars, inflation and just about everything else. Regime media is their megaphone.

The New York Post has been down this road before. In October 2016 it ran factual pieces about “secret emails” from the Hunter Biden laptop tying the “big guy” to corruption. The ink was barely dry when 51 veteran intelligence professionals signed a letter telling the American people that the story “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” Not true. As far as I know, none of those folks has paid any price for their chicanery. I digress.

Fibbing for profit

Why fudge population stats? Wouldn’t we all be better off learning the truth about humanity’s prospects? This is so important. Mosher zeroes in on the United Nations, which has projected population peaking decades later than other studies. What gives?

The UN exaggerates human numbers for the same reason that the Biden-Harris administration exaggerates employment numbers: for financial gain and political survival.

There are billions of dollars at stake, funding that is fueled by a dark fear of mushrooming human numbers.

The population control movement does not intend to go quietly to its grave, even as it continues to dig humanity’s own, so it feeds this fear.

There we have it. Once again, it’s all about filthy lucre. That social revolution, if it ever comes, will need to do some serious culling of the budgets of these globalist agents of influence. That’ll be a very tall order, but I can tell you this: big changes are coming on the world scene.

Hang on to your hat.

The Diabolical ‘Save Act’ Puts Americans in Chains

/in , , , , , , , /by

 “People who elect corrupt politicians are not victims but accomplices.” —  George Orwell

“Those who can make you believe absurdities; can make you commit atrocities.” — Aristotle

“The greatest evils in the world will not be carried out by men with guns, but by men in suits sitting behind desks.” — C. S. Lewis

“Defiance, not obedience, is the American’s answer to overbearing authority.” —  Ayn Rand

“It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong.” —  Thomas Sowell

Last week, Monica Crowley was subbing for Bannon’s War Room and she interviewed Rep. Chip Roy who was promoting the SAVE Act, a bill he sponsored to prevent non-citizens from voting in U.S. elections.  Roy stated that the SAVE Act would require documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote.  He claimed it would significantly impact election integrity.

H.R.8281 amends the National Voter Registration Act of 1993  (NVRA) to require proof of United States citizenship to register an individual to vote in elections for Federal office, and for other purposes. This bill passed the House on July 10, 2024 and is in the Senate.

My thought in listening to Rep. Roy was that finally he was doing something right.  I found the summary of the bill and sent it to my group lists thinking for the first time Roy was on the right track.  I was wrong, but let me explain why I have never trusted the man. He is promoting Mark Meckler’s Convention of States which is funded by the Koch organizations, Heritage Foundation, American Legislative Exchange Council and more.  See my recent article.  Roy is a close friend of Byron Donalds, who is also backing a new Article V Constitutional Convention. Last October, when a new House Speaker was being considered, Roy nominated Donalds whose top aide and best friend, Larry Wilcoxson, is a felon with a long list of criminal activities.

After I sent the SAVE Act info to my group lists, I received an email from Joanna Martin telling me that I’d better read the full bill and not just the summary because the full bill is poison.  Joanna knows what she’s talking about. She’s a retired attorney and a retired Army JAG officer.  I just read the full bill and was gob smacked. All bills are written in legalese which makes life difficult for the common man, but when Joanna tells me a bill is rotten, I listen because she’s been proven right time and again.

She clarified this bill for me in easy-to-understand layman’s language.

Section 1 of the 14th Amendment doesn’t grant citizenship status to everybody who is born here.  When Congress passed it, they specifically discussed that it wouldn’t make American Indians US citizens even though they were born here.  That was because Indians weren’t “subject to the jurisdiction of the United States” – they were subject to the jurisdiction of their Tribes. 

When the French ambassador’s lovely wife gives birth to a child here, that child is not “subject to the jurisdiction of the United States” – the child is subject to the jurisdiction of France. 

When illegal aliens breach our Borders and invade our land, and then give birth here, their children are not “subject to the jurisdiction of the United States” because the parents are here illegally.  Their children are subject to the jurisdiction of the Country the invaders left.  That’s why all of them can be (and should be) deported. The children are not US citizens.

When American Missionaries, or Diplomats, or military personnel, etc. have a child born abroad, their child is NOT subject to the jurisdiction of the Country in which the child is born. Their child is born a US Citizen. This is an ancient Principle.     

But the SAVE Act violates Section 1 of the 14th Amendment because it provides that anyone born here is a “US Citizen” and will be eligible to vote in federal elections. So, the children of those 10 to 40 million illegals who have invaded our Country would be eligible to vote in all federal elections. The child of the French ambassador and his Wife would be eligible to vote here – and I expect under French law, the child would be eligible to vote in France as well. 

(Just like Dr. Mehmet Oz is a citizen of Turkey and America and votes in both countries.)

So, the SAVE Act isn’t about prohibiting non-citizens from voting – what it really does is to make US citizens out of everybody who is born in the United States.  All the Islamists and CCP males who breach our borders – their children would be “US Citizens” and eligible to vote. That’s the “hidden” agenda behind the SAVE Act.   

I expect that most people supporting the SAVE Act have no idea what it really does.  But I assure you that whoever drafted this nasty bit of poison knew exactly what it would do.

The SAVE Act actually nullifies what Senator Jacob Howard said when he introduced the 14th Amendment’s citizenship clause, “Its grant of citizenship would not include persons born in the United States who are foreigners or aliens.”

Documentary Proof to Vote

This Act would cause women who have married and changed their surnames to go through the same thing they’re going through to get the Driver’s License ID to fly or enter a federal building.  You can read about the DL insanity I’ve gone through to attain the special ID here and here.  American citizens are being penalized, and there is an ulterior motive in making us believe we must have the Real ID.

Section 2 is the most significant part of the SAVE Act. It would amend the NVRA, which currently prohibits states from requiring documentary proof of citizenship (DPOC) from applicants that register under the NVRA’s registration provisions to mandate states require Americans to provide DPOC to register to vote in federal elections. These provisions will apply to all new registrants across the United States—including already-registered voters who update their registration as the result of a move, a name change, or a party switch.

The difficulty is again for women whose certified birth certificates would not work with the driver’s license for people who have changed their names—including tens of millions of married women and complications if the woman was previously divorced and remarried.  The end result is the nightmare of the Real ID again, only this time to register to vote.

This bill puts a heavy burden on American citizens who were born here.  The democrats have some valid problems with the bill, and I agree with portions of them. I highly doubt it will pass in the Senate.  Nevertheless, the SAVE Act as written, should not have even passed the House!

I phoned my congressman’s office, but no one was available to talk about the bill and no one apparently understands what this bill does to American citizens despite the fact it had already passed the House.

Congressman Tim Burchett sent me a letter which stated the following:

Federal elections must be lawful, without fraud or tampering, and must only be engaged in by American citizens. I believe fair elections are the cornerstone of our republic.

H.R. 8281, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, was introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (TX-21) on May 7, 2024. This bill would require individuals provide proof of U.S. citizenship in order to register to vote in federal elections. You may be interested to know H.R. 8281 passed the U.S. House of Representatives on July 10, 2024, and was referred to the U.S. Senate for further consideration.

Unfortunately, the nightmare so many have had with the Real ID Driver’s License is compounded in this Act and requires the same validations for a voter’s registration card. So, if you choose NOT to get the Real ID Driver’s License, you will still have to jump through the same hoops for a voter’s registration card should the SAVE Act pass in the senate and be signed by the president.

Real ID or National ID Card

Former Congressman Sam Rohrer interviewed Twila Brase, and the subject of the Real ID turning into your “National ID Card” was discussed.

The Real ID Act was passed in 2005 midway through the Bush administration and after 9/11. It remolded the entire US intelligence community and expanded nearly all of them in the areas of surveillance, tracking, monitoring, eroding and violating of US citizens’ rights. All the while, it grants open access to illegal aliens and enemy combatants flooding across our open borders. It’s a one-sided change, not to assure freedom or safety, but to the contrary, spying on and controlling American citizens.

Globalist proponents give money to the states, to the governors, to the legislatures, and they give up their constitutional obligations. Some states then began to implement the provisions of the Real ID Act, whose purpose was to create a national database of drivers and a standardized way to read the licenses. Certain governors began to push back against this thinly veiled effort to force through, what is in essence a forbidden and always a taboo, a National ID Card.

Due to resistance, several deadlines for implementation have come and gone.  Most states have refused to allocate state tax dollars to mandate this dangerous and unnecessary federal ID card that has an estimated implementation cost of $23 billion. There is now a new deadline promoted by the globalists in our federal and state governments, of May 7, 2025.

When Obama came in, they came up with this clever idea that you cannot fly without an ID.  Legislators didn’t stand up for their people.  If you have a “Star Card” type of Real ID Driver’s License, it is a federal identification and tracking card.

The globalists are getting tired of the delays and will shove this through causing a nightmare at airports one day. What people don’t realize is that there are 16 different IDs that can get you on an airplane.  It is on the TSA website.  One of them is a passport, so realistically, American citizens will need a passport to fly anywhere in their own country.  Remember when we thought of this as a “communist plot?”

The Real ID card distinctive is that the photograph that is taken is a facial recognition, digitized photograph taken in a special way that is linked to actual international standards that come out of the United Nations.  Remember too, that United Nations Agenda 21/30 wants to eliminate all travel, including cars.  They want you walking or riding your bicycle for their climate change lie of “saving the planet,” when in reality, it’s all about control.

Their ultimate goal is to put this on your phone, control your life through your phone, digitize the Real ID and have it at a national level. This is very, very dangerous to America.  All of us must refuse the real ID or exchange the one that you have and get the old-style regular DL.

The Real ID would ultimately be for medical care, for purchases, for registering at a hotel, for everything.  And once it’s digitized, like in the CCP, they can shut you out with a flip of the switch.

Conclusion

The goal ultimately is to socialize/communize every facet of societal convenience or interaction, where the government literally owns and controls it all.

Do I want the Real ID? No.  Will I pursue renewing my passport?  Yes.

Remember being taught, “No Taxation Without Representation?” It is why we fought an eight-year War for Independence from Great Britain.

We’re there again.  Tell your Senators, your representatives, your governor and your state legislators, we don’t want another piece of legislation that inhibits individual freedom including the Real ID and the SAVE Act!

In January of 1814, former President Thomas Jefferson said, “Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, to wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence.”

Kamala says quiet part out loud: Government ‘oversight’ needed to police the internet and rein in thought crimes

/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

Watch video of the stunning admission from VP Harris as she goes full communist in broad daylight.

The global crackdown on free speech continues unabated and if you think it’s relegated to countries like China, Cuba and North Korea, think again.

A Brazilian Supreme Court panel on Monday upheld a decision to suspend Elon Musk’s social media platform X in the country.

Last Friday, Justice Alexandre de Moraes ordered the platform blocked.

Since the decision, Musk and his supporters have tried to paint de Moraes as a renegade and an authoritarian censor of political speech. But Brazil is no outlier. The European Union is also cracking down on free speech with its Online Service Act and we have our own free-speech haters here in the United States.

In fact, one of them is a candidate for president.

Kamala Harris came out over the weekend and admitted in the wide open that she wants to see the same type of state-sponsored censorship implemented in the United States as what we see taking shape in Brazil.

The government, Harris believes, should have ultimate control over what you and I are allowed to post on the internet, as well as more control over what we are allowed to see and hear. She doesn’t trust us to decide for ourselves as to the truth or accuracy of what we see or read online.

Take a look at this VIDEO and let the gravity of what Harris is saying sink in.

Kamala will shut down X if she wins

She’s very impressed with the socialist government of Brazil’s legal action to shut down Twitter, now called X.

She’s telling us that social media platforms, which are where most people get their news today, are “directly speaking to millions of people without any level of oversight or regulation, and that has to stop.”

That means, in her view, all voices must be sifted through a filter. The question becomes, who should we allow to be the official filter of news and information? Who should be allowed to be the overseer? I think Kamala is pretty clear on that. It’s the government. And that is as anti-American and unconstitutional as you can get.

But it’s not just Kamala Harris who thinks this way. This is the majority viewpoint among the self-appointed globalist elites worldwide.

Robert Reich, the former secretary of the U.S. Department of Labor under Bill Clinton, said in an August 30th op-ed for The Guardian that Elon Musk should be dealt with harshly for his commitment to free speech on his X platform, which Reich described as “out of control.”

Reich listed six things that can be done to “rein him in,” and one of them was for governments around the world to “threaten Musk with arrest if he doesn’t stop disseminating lies and hate on X.” He cited France’s arrest of Telegram CEO Pavel Durov last week as the model for what should be done to Musk and anyone else who dares to question the official globalist narratives on key issues such as vaccines, LGBTQ issues, certain election results, NATO’s wars of aggression, etc.

Current Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a July 2 statement that his department is working to create a program run by AI that will scan the internet looking for posts that counter the government’s official narratives (he calls it disinformation) and then somehow punish or marginalize the authors of the unauthorized remarks.

Only outright communists and techno-tyrants would admit to supporting such authoritarian ideas and concepts.

Unfortunately, that’s what today’s puppet politicians have become as they continue to shill for the globalists at the World Economic Forum and United Nations. Both the WEF and UN are in the midst of a global campaign to wipe out all voices of dissent and redefine them as criminals. The regimes in China, North Korea, Iran and Cuba have never allowed people to speak critically of government authorities so nothing is changing there. It’s the Western so-called “democracies” that are in the crosshairs of this global campaign.

Will you submit to this beast system? Or will you double down on courage and speak truth to power, submitting only to the higher authority of God and His Son, Jesus Christ?

Kamala Harris Hates You, and Wants You to Shut Up and Do What She Says

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

It has been clear for quite some time that the Biden-Harris regime is no friend of the freedom of speech and dislikes the idea of dissent. It has tried on more than one occasion to curtail Americans’ Constitutional freedoms, all under the guise of protecting us. Making us blind slaves of the authoritarian state will save “our democracy,” you see. And now Kamala Harris, in complaining about free speech on X (formerly Twitter), has made it clear: her administration would be frankly and unapologetically authoritarian. It would, in short, be the end of America as a free society, and Kamala and her minions would say “Good riddance.”

As the far-left Brazilian government shut down X in order to silence dissidents in that country, Harris signaled that she was considering doing the same thing here if she wins in November. In a video that circulated on X Friday, we see Harris telling Jake Tapper: “He has, he has lost his privileges and it should be taken down.” It’s unclear whom she has in mind for this punishment, but the more she talks, the more it seems likely that she was referring to Elon Musk, and to taking down X.

Harris continued: “And the bottom line is that you can’t say that you have one rule for Facebook and you have a different rule for Twitter. The same rule has to apply, which is that there has to be, a, uh, er, uh, a responsibility that is placed on these social media sites to understand their power. They are directly speaking to millions and millions of people without any level of, of, of oversight or regulation. And that has to stop.”

WATCH: Kamala will shut down X if she wins

Ever since Elon Musk took over Twitter/X, it has broken out of the lockstep in which the other social media giants march. They all went along willingly, and even eagerly, with the Biden regime’s determination to silence COVID dissidents, although Mark Zuckerberg has now broken ranks and claimed that he would have stood for the freedom of speech, but ultimately buckled under heavy pressure from the regime. Zuckerberg’s new stance strains credulity, especially in light of the fact that after Musk made Twitter/X into a bastion of the freedom of speech, Zuckerberg went so far as to set up a shadow Twitter called Threads, where users were warned openly that they might be silenced if their speech displeased the political elites.

Now Harris is calling for all the social media giants to march in lockstep again, just as they did in the good old days before Musk muddied the waters by disrupting their unanimity and at least slowing the progression toward total authoritarian control of speech. Harris wants the social media giants to submit to “oversight” and “regulation,” which means they will say what the leftist intelligentsia wants them to say, and only that. Other voices will be deplatformed, marginalized, and silence, just as they were everywhere before Musk and still are on most platforms.

This is just the latest indication of this regime’s authoritarian bent. In addition to its work for censorship on social media, the Biden-Harris regime is the first presidential administration to see its principal opponent indicted, and on charges that many see as flimsy and politically motivated. The Biden-Harris regime also tried and failed to establish a Disinformation Governance Board that would have effectively stamped out opposition to regime policies by labeling such opposition “disinformation” and silencing it accordingly.

Harris would no doubt insist, if she were suddenly overcome by a bout of coherence, that all she wants to do is helping the public by distinguishing truth from “disinformation.” The glaring problem with this claim is that what the regime and its henchmen call “disinformation” has more than once turned out to consist of truths that were inconvenient for the regime’s agenda and policies.  One of the most notorious examples of this came in 2020, when Twitter, in an all-out effort to ensure that Biden would win the presidency, labeled the Hunter Biden laptop story “disinformation” and censored it accordingly. Fifty-one top intelligence professionals, all also avid to elect Biden, agreed that the laptop was “disinformation,” and Russian disinfo to boot, and that was that. Except the laptop was real.

We could soon be seeing many more instances of truths that harm the leftist elites being censored. The New York Post reported as far back as last February that the Biden-Harris regime was “spending millions on artificial intelligence research designed to make anti ‘misinformation’ tools which could then be passed to social media giants.” “Misinformation,” that is, in the eyes of the far-left wonks who are working on this project, and their overseers within the regime.

As always, such initiatives stem from a frank contempt for the American people, as does Harris’ taste for oversight and regulation of the only social media platform that allows for views that dissent from those of the dominant left. Harris and her fellow leftist elitists hold the American people in utter contempt, believing that we’re simply too stupid to be trusted to know right from wrong and choose our leaders properly. So Harris stands ready to silence dissent and make all our decisions for us, in accord with the will of her own handlers. That’s how totalitarian regimes work.

In a World Obsessed with Feelings, Whose Feelings Matter?

/in , , , , , , , , , , , , , /by

Globalism is a replacement ideology that seeks to reorder the world into one singular, planetary Unistate, ruled by the globalist elite. The globalist war on nation-states cannot succeed without collapsing the United States of America. The long-term strategic attack plan moves America incrementally from constitutional republic to socialism to globalism to feudalism. The tactical attack plan uses asymmetric psychological and informational warfare to destabilize Americans and drive society out of objective reality into the madness of subjective reality. America’s children are the primary target of the globalist predators.

Hidden deep within the Gospel of Yuval Harari is the question “Do children belong to their parents or to the state?” Harari’s position clearly favors the state, because the “intelligent design” he describes is an arm of the state body politic. To repeat what he said at the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos on January 24, 2020:

In the coming decades, AI and biotechnology will give us godlike abilities to reengineer life, and even to create completely new life-forms. After four billion years of organic life shaped by natural selection, we are about to enter a new era of inorganic life shaped by intelligent design.

Harari’s “evolutionary” biology sees human beings as hackable animals whose future will be shaped by artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and the reengineering of life into new life-forms. The new life-forms Harari refers to are transhumanist beings totally controlled by the globalist elite—the “intelligent designers.”

To “transcend” means to go beyond the range or limits of something. Transhuman means going beyond the current limits of being human and acquiring the powers and abilities of an enhanced human being in what the World Economic Forum calls “Humanity 2.0″—the stated goal of “intelligent design.” Harari’s narrative is grooming your children for Humanity 2.0.

To understand the insidious plan to move humanity from Humanity 1.0 to Humanity 2.0, it is necessary to examine the tactical shift away from meritocracy—the traditional metric of achievement foundational to American life, progress, and success.

In a society that eliminates meritocracy by shifting its metrics from achievement to feelings, whose feelings actually matter? What is the political purpose of the shift?

Competence is the mother of self-esteem. We know this is true by simply observing the delight of young children as they learn to dress themselves, feed themselves, or sound out their first words and realize they can read! Each achievement increases the child’s competence and enhances his developing sense of self. Achievement makes little Johnny feel proud of himself and good about himself. Let’s consider what incentivizes competence and achievement, and what doesn’t. Let’s also consider the motivations for either incentivizing or discouraging competence.

If you want to know the motive, look at the result. What made America great was having its cultural roots in meritocracy. Our society awarded achievement with upward mobility. It was called the American Dream, and America was the land where American dreams came true. In every sector of society, little Johnny was encouraged to become an independent, autonomous, rational adult, capable of living a life of ordered liberty in our constitutional republic. In other words, little Johnny was encouraged to grow up and perpetuate the American Dream.

Each of little Johnny’s achievements was rewarded with praise. As he grew older, he earned grades in school that marked his achievements. Then he competed in sports with friends, and games with family. His grades were awarded with certificates of achievement or advanced placement. His sports achievements were awarded with trophies, and his wins in family games were rewarded with admiration.

The competitions all served to incentivize achievement. As an adult, Johnny competed for jobs and advancement. Winning and losing were part of everybody’s private and public life. Meritocracy was society’s infrastructure, rooted in achievement. Those who lost were encouraged to try harder, work harder, study more, and try again.

The association between individual achievement and self-esteem was unmistakable. Winning and losing were part of America’s infrastructure that anyone and everyone could identify with. Individual and team play were instrumental in teaching the valuable lessons of cooperation and teamwork. This is no small thing. Whether in a classroom, on a baseball field, or in an orchestra hall, competition encourages both individual and team competence, cooperation, and achievement.

In the 1970s, ABC’s Wide World of Sports announcer Jim McKay immortalized the words “the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.” His words described the drama caught on televised sports, but they also apply to the everyday lives of everyday people, describing how it feels to win and how it feels to lose. In the past, American culture supported a can-do spirit of encouragement, an ethos that insisted the agony of defeat need not triumph: anyone and everyone could experience the thrill of victory through hard work and practice. It was the same ethos that made America the greatest, freest, wealthiest nation on Earth.

But we are a world at war, whether people acknowledge it or not—a war between globalism and the nation-state. The globalist war on the nation-state is a multifaceted culture war, fought without bullets, that targets the world’s children. In an unconscionable humanitarian hoax, the globalist social engineers advanced the deceitful narrative that little Johnny’s feelings must always be protected.

To remind the reader, a humanitarian hoax is the deliberate and deceitful tactic of presenting a destructive policy as altruistic. The humanitarian huckster presents himself as a compassionate advocate when in fact he is the disguised enemy. America’s humanitarian hucksters, under the guidance of the globalist social engineers, simply eliminated competition in order to “protect” little Johnny’s feelings. No winning. No losing. No grades. No competition. No incentive for achievement. No competence. No self-esteem. No thrill of victory. Participation trophies do not incentivize achievement; they just blur the boundary between trying and doing.

Eliminating competition does not protect little Johnny from hurt feelings, or save big Johnny from the agony of defeat. Eliminating competition just disincentivizes his achievements and robs him of self-esteem. It produces a society of incompetent, dependent, childlike, fragile citizens who are very easy to manipulate and control—precisely the goal of a caretaker government.

We are born without the ability to survive on our own, entirely dependent upon our caretakers to teach us the necessary survival skills to live in society. Today, a battle is being fought in America over who are the rightful caretakers of our nation’s children.

Historically, it was the parents who had the responsibility to protect their children and prepare them for life in our constitutional republic. Increasingly, the caretakers in America are no longer the parents, because the traditional family of stay-at-home Mom and working Dad is no longer the norm. Non-traditional families are reliant on daycare, preschools, babysitters, and after-school programs to provide child care and instruction for America’s children.

Since 1979, when Jimmy Carter established the Department of Education, the government began taking an increasingly active role in children’s education. Today, the National Education Association (NEA),[i] the largest professional-employee organization in America, with over 3 million members, is a major political player. Ninety-seven percent of its millions of dollars in donations from membership dues go to Democrat and liberal political candidates. The politicization of American education is funded by labor unions as well as federal and state funding. A stunning March 31, 2023, article by journalist and political analyst Daniel Greenfield, “Whose Children? Our Children,”[ii] asserts:

The shift from the single-income family to the two-income family with preschool encompassing children as young as 18 months and then to an ever more intensive chain of state educational institutions happened gradually enough that most parents thought it was their own idea. But what the Soviet Union and Communist China had failed to accomplish, happened in America.

Children, from even before they could talk, were being raised either directly by the state or by the institutions that it closely regulated. The unintended consequences of that, emotional fragility, a lack of healthy models for interpersonal relationships, and an obsession with ‘snitching’ on others that persists well into adulthood, were only the collateral damage….

Such children raised by the state become adults who want the state to go on raising them. When they’re hungry, the state feeds them, when they’re cold, the state shelters them and when they’re unhappy, the state tells them whom to blame. When their relationships fall apart or when their feelings are hurt, they turn to the state to soothe them with a dose of revenge.

The infantilization of America is a leftist/globalist weapon of mass destruction. The American Dream has been replaced by regressive dreams for eternal childhood. The old Soviet Union and today’s Communist China share the collectivist ideology that prioritizes the state above the individual, so what is good for the state is good for the individual. America has increasingly adopted communism’s collectivist “ethic” and its self-destructive Marxist messaging, most evident in politicized education and medicine.

The battle over who is the rightful caretaker of America’s children is a battle over ideologies. The Biden-Obama-Harris regime has eliminated meritocracy and stopped incentivizing competence, competition, achievement, success, independence, upward mobility, and the thrill of victory to obtain the American Dream. Instead, the regime incentivizes eternal childhood, incompetence, and lifelong dependence upon the government. The objective is to destabilize and destroy America’s infrastructure of family, seen as a competing ideology, and collapse the country internally. Remember, in order to “build back better,” one must first destroy what exists.

Substituting compliance for competence is collapsing America from within. So, in the end, Johnny’s feelings don’t matter at all. Little Johnny is the target of the duplicity, being groomed to become a permanently dependent, unthinking, unproductive drone for the globalist elite—a worker bee. In a world obsessed with feelings, the only people whose feelings actually matter are the globalist elite.
