Without Principles We Have Nothing.

Depending on your attitude, it’s either a frightening time to be alive, or it’s an exciting time to be alive. Maybe it’s a little of both. But there’s no doubt history is being written all around us, not only in the United States but all over the world.

Things heated up enormously after the protest and riot in the US Capital on January 6. I wish it hadn’t gotten out of control. I won’t speculate if our side got caught up in the heat of the moment or if they were manipulated by professional agitators, or even if ANTIFA were the real destroyers that day. That will be debated for months to come and I doubt we’ll ever agree on the answer. But there’s no denying the protest happened, things got crazy, and people were hurt.

And now politicians are foaming at the mouth in excitement trying to exploit a national tragedy for personal and political gain, completely oblivious to the fact that their self-serving greed is a large part of why the protest happened to begin with. These people truly think they are more important than the people they’re supposed to serve. Even days later there are very few elected officials promising to listen to us and work on serious reform that can bring us all back together. Instead, all I see is finger pointing, accusations, hateful statements, and a rush to destroy our freedom in the name of national security. But let’s be honest: they’re worried about their own security, not yours and mine. They’ve learned nothing, feeling safe in their delusion that January 6 was nothing but a bunch of deranged Trumpsters tearing up their Congressional offices. Get rid of Trump and silence his base and the problem is solved, or so they think.

Adding gasoline to the fire is corporate America which has jumped on board the crazy train promising to help with the silencing. While pretending to care about national unity, in reality corporations are censoring, condemning, and canceling President Trump and the entire freedom movement so that they gain favorable points with the Left, which they see as the probable winner of this fight. Most corporations have no loyalty to any nation or political cause. It’s just a horse race to them, and they’ll bet on whichever one is in the lead at the moment. They have no principles. And they’re hoping you don’t either.

But without principles, we have nothing. Our power comes from our principles. And this means:

When Netflix airs a movie that is basically kiddie porn, you complain, and if they don’t pull it off the air, you cancel your account. You don’t ignore it because your favorite show comes on later tonight.

If your bank is accused and found guilty of defrauding customers, change your bank. Don’t reward them by keeping your account open because it’s too much trouble to go elsewhere.

If Facebook and Twitter are censoring everything you post and there’s good reason to suspect they’re guilty of election interference, don’t accept it. Cancel your accounts. They think you’re too weak to leave them. Are you?

Google has trained you to think of them and only them when you need to search for something. But they also censor you, track you, and manipulate your thinking by only showing you the results they want you to see. I’ve published a list on my blog of the better search engines you should be using. Check it out.

And when giants like Amazon shut down our voices like when they recently announced they were turning off Parler’s web hosting, we need to complain. And if they don’t listen, we need to stop ordering from them. Cancel Prime. Get it out of your head that the default shopping site is Amazon. You have other choices.

We have to do these things even if it means we adjust our lifestyle a tiny bit.

Nothing will change until we stand firm by our principles and support the people and companies fighting for us instead of the people and companies trying to shut us down.

The power is ours, unless we’re weak and give it away.

Today The Silent Majority Got Loud.

At the time that I’m writing this, there is still a fragment of hope that Congress will not accept the electoral votes for the corrupt Joe Biden and his wretched choice for Vice President, Kamala Harris. But that hopes fades by the minute as one after the other Republican politician caves in to the Left, sending the United States down a solid path to Marxism. One of our last hopes was the runoff election in Georgia, but even that is looking like a another likely win for the Democrats. Not an honest win, of course. Anyone who has been to the fine southern state of Georgia knows Socialist candidates can’t win there, but there was also no way Joe Biden could have beaten Donald Trump in the Presidential election, but here we are. We’re here because the Democratic Party is a gang of traitorous criminals backed by misinformed followers who worship their party with cult-like fanaticism. Democratic voters have proven repeatedly over the past 4 years that facts don’t matter and living in denial of the truth is perfectly acceptable as long as their radical agenda moves forward. In their defense, the public has been fed a non-stop diet of propaganda and outright lies about Trump since even before his inauguration. And the truth about Deep State criminal activity has been kept out of sight. But we live in an information age, so the truth is out there, but intellectual laziness stops many people from finding it.

Millions of patriotic Americans are angry and fed up with the corruption and the lies, and many are now marching in DC in a large protest against the rigged election and the state of our government in general.

Although the Marxist Fascist news media will continue to promote their side as the side of rational thinking and democracy while painting the protesters as unhinged dangerous white nationalists or “Trumpsters” or whatever slur they choose, the truth is that the dangerous people are the Democrats, spineless Republicans, the media that profits from both. Here’s some of the latest from the swamp:

Democratic Representative Johnson said: Trump Should Be ‘Perp-Walked to the Jail’ Like ‘Black Folks’ Have Been.

Democratic Representative Omar says she’s drawing up new articles of impeachment against President Trump.

Republican Senator Burr said: ‘the President bears responsibility’ for the riots at the U.S. Capitol, but Burr is taking no responsibility at all for his failure to serve his constituents in North Carolina which likely led to pent-up frustration among the DC protesters.

Radical Leftist and former star Sean Penn appeared to suggest President Trump take cyanide: “May Well Be a Road Worth Your Exploration”, he reportedly said.

Facebook and Twitter removed a video by President Trump urging protesters to peacefully return home and respect law enforcement. Why? This action probably resulted in even more anger and violence, and shows a lack of corporate responsibility by the social tech companies.

Police shot and killed an unarmed protester who was behind a locked and barricaded door. The mainstream media is quiet about it.

As much as I’d prefer that peaceful solutions can be found, our political system is broken and dominated by greedy politicians who do the bidding of China or whoever else gives them cash. The 2020 elections were an outrageous display of voter fraud nationwide. And whatever happens today and in the coming days, the Marxist Fascist news media – CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, The Washington Post, Fox News, The New York Times, and many others – are significantly responsible and have blood on their hands. And so do countless Senators, Representatives, Governors, Mayors, and an endless list of DC bureaucrats.

But they need to pay attention to today and make no mistake about it: the silent majority is now awake, and we won’t be silent anymore.

The Civil War Has Begun.

There was no official announcement and no shots have been fired, but if you look around you can see the United States is clearly divided into opposing tribes: Leftists including Democrats, Socialists, and Communists on one side.  On the other side are patriots defending the Constitution, freedom, and the rule of law. Most Republicans are on the side of the patriots but many elected officials from the GOP have yet to prove which side they're on. 

We are a damaged and divided nation thanks to years of sabotage by Communists who have hidden their true identities while infiltrating the government, our education system, and our news media. They have systematically steered public sentiment toward the Left using legislation, propaganda, and most recently, by taking advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic to crash our economy and enable them to manipulate us even further using the time-tested tool of fear.

And there are rumors that the Chinese Communist Party sent soldiers to the United States using fake ID's to train ANTIFA thugs and provoke the BLM and Defund Police rioting that we suffered through most of the year. We're also hearing reports that the Chinese may also have been involved in election interference, including printing thousands of fake ballots that were used to throw the election to Joe Biden. And Biden himself is compromised and a national security threat thanks to his many years of  questionable deals and suspicious cooperation with the CCP. Add to this the real possibility that some (perhaps many) in the deep state are sympathetic to China and may have done their own brand of damage to our nation and it adds up to a serious and immediate threat to the ability of the United States to continue forward united in any way. It's also no secret that members of the world's financial and political elite, as represented by the World Economic Forum and the United Nations, are pushing for a one world government and the United States has been the major roadblock to their plans. This is why it looks like the entire world is trying to destroy Donald Trump. He sees what is going on and has been trying to stop it, but the opposition has been overwhelming. It appears that his new strategy is to make the people aware of the plot to make the US subservient to a centralized government, before it's too late to protect what's left of the Republic.

But that will be a Herculean task, since the people on the Left are either sworn to Marxism or else are so solidly programmed by news media propaganda that they refuse to believe anything except the propaganda.  Facts don't matter to them if the facts don't support their worldview. Case in point: Democrats have called Trump a Fascist and claim he's a tyrant, while they completely ignore the fact that Wall Street bankers and powerful tech companies overwhelmingly backed Joe Biden. And the vast majority of unconstitutional pandemic mandates came from Democratic Governors who have let big businesses stay open while forcing small local businesses and places of worship to shut down. That's Fascism and tyranny in full view, but Democratic voters can't see it.

We're at a critical point where the nation is under attack from multiple fronts: the pandemic response, internal disruption by the Left possibly promoted by the Chinese, the global elite who want us to submit to them, a compromised federal government full of traitors and profiteers, and a corrupt news media that supports all of it.

Normally if the public was given good information we could see through the nightmare and come together as Americans, but the sabotage has been going on too long and the damage is too severe. The division of Left and Right is so extreme that communication is breaking down and friendships and even family relationships are falling apart along ideological lines. The Left has begun its attack using censorship and the "cancel culture" to silence us. Soon they'll find a way to further exploit COVID-19 and vaccines to push us further down. Already there is serious talk of requiring a digital proof of vaccination if we want to have a job, collect government benefits, or in some proposals, leave our homes at all. Paper currency is on the way out, soon to be replaced entirely by digital money, and when that happens, tech companies, banks, and the government will have the ability to track our every move and forbid us from buying items they don't want us to own. It will also give them power over businesses by refusing to process transactions if they don't comply with the rules of the elite. Already VISA, MasterCard, and PayPal have shut down the ability of some companies to accept payments. Gab is a good example of company put on a permanent blacklist and their only crime is protecting free speech. What happens if the banks decide they'll no longer do business with gun companies? What happens if the government shuts off Social Security payments to anyone who refuses the vaccine? It's an attack on freedom just as damaging as cannon fire, and much of it is happening right now.

So yes, we're already in a civil war. We haven't divided ourselves geographically but there's no denying that Left and Right are as opposed to each other right now as the north and south were in 1861.

And we know how that ended.

Democrats Incite Violence. And Our Cities Burn.

US Representative Maxine Waters of California has repeatedly urged her followers to get in the faces of Trump cabinet members and Trump supporters. "You tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere," she said during a press conference. But when riots begin and cities burn, Maxine stays quiet, taking no responsibility for anything.

Update Sept 01 2020: Now that polls are indicating that Americans are growing tired of the protests and riots, liberals have changed their talking points. The official narrative now is "blame Donald Trump". We saw that coming, didn't we? Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Nancy Pelosi, Symone Sanders, Jennifer Rubin, and Adam Schiff plus many others are all repeating the same thing: Trump is "fanning the flames of violence" and that's supposedly why cities are on fire. How immoral must a person be to say this? They know they're lying, but they don't care. It's all about power and winning the next election. These characters have been encouraging violence for months and resisting all efforts to stop it. Only now, when polling data shows they made a mistake, are they changing their strategy to avoid any blame. They'll try to rewrite history rather than accept any responsibility for the civil unrest that has divided the United States all year. And their media lapdogs will cooperate in the scam, hoping for some kind of reward later. It's just more liberal bullshit and it's why so many people are running away from the Democratic Party. 

Up Is Down And Fiction Is Truth. Welcome To The Fake Reality Of The Left.

I watch in bewilderment when I see educated people pledge allegiance to the Left and the insanity for which it stands. I see decent, law abiding people putting the Democratic Party ahead of their own country. Reality, which can clearly be seen by any normal person, is seen as something totally different by some. How can that be? How can scientific advice from one set of researchers be considered the truth but scientific advice from another set of equally talented researchers be dismissed as fake? How can someone see a city being burned to the ground and senior citizens brutally attacked and then delude themselves into thinking it's a peaceful protest? How do they justify the cancel culture and then say they support free speech? Or, in the disgusting case of Bette Midler, how can they defend this washed up actress viciously and disgustingly attacking Melania Trump's accent but claim to love immigrants and multiculturalism? 

It's all quite confusing. 

Until you spend some time in the land of the Left, and then it becomes much more clear. Before I go on, let me just explain that I lived in that land for several years. I was never a great Leftist, but I supported many things that liberals and the Left supported in the earlier years, like internet neutrality, the end of endless wars, and equal rights for all. But over time, things changed, and liberal organizations began veering very hard to the Left. Almost overnight, it seemed, tolerance disappeared. Discussing ideas and disagreeing with official positions was something you did at your own risk. I saw firsthand you could be asked to leave someone's home just for having a different opinion than they had. I saw a good friend go into a near rage when he learned I owned a handgun. I still remember the glaring anger in his eyes over such a simple thing. You would think I told him I killed babies for fun. Wait, I probably would have been congratulated for that. We got past that moment, for a while, but I became increasingly frustrated by unknown and unseen forces dictating what I should and should not believe. For example, I'm all for gay and lesbian rights, not super rights, just equal rights. But then it became known that bisexuals had to be included. OK. I can live with that. But soon after, transgender people where thrown into the mix, so GLB became GLBT. A lot of gay people were not okay with that but it's not like there was a vote or anything. It was just a command from beyond that people eventually accepted. And then "Q" was added and that really confused people. Q stands for queer but who are they? How are the Q's different from the GLBT's? Things were getting weird, but again, there was no vote on the matter. Accept it and shut up. Some people did shut up but then bullying began and it became obvious that compliance was going to be enforced. It was sort of an organic compliance. There was no single person or group organizing the bullying. It just seemed to emerge from the liberal collective. From there, on all kinds of issues, compliance became the rule, with bullying and shaming used as weapons. Attacks on people's jobs and families came next. And that morphed into the entire cancel culture which has done immeasurable damage to our society. 

So we're back to my first paragraph, wondering how all this madness took root and why apparently sane people are taken in by it all. Well once you've been in it and escaped, as I have, it becomes very obvious what's going on. It's propaganda, just like the Left has been using since Karl Marx first picked up a pen. It's everywhere, spreading around the globe like a deadly virus but now it's digital, moving at the speed of light. It's on thousands of websites, and they all stick to the same narrative which reinforces their lies so that the lies look like the truth. If all the top liberal websites say the sky is green, and they say it over and over and shame anyone who still sees it as blue, eventually everyone will agree and admire their new green sky. No amount of scientific data will convince them otherwise. The Left has turned lying into an art form. Generally speaking, whatever they say is the opposite of the truth. They claim to support a free democracy, yet their candidates are harsh authoritarians. They compare Trump to Hitler, yet all over the nation, indeed all over the world, elected officials from the Left are the ones taking away freedoms, locking down populations and destroying jobs using a virus as an excuse, and forcing "hate crime" laws upon us to control not only our behavior but also our thoughts. They paint conservatives as Nazi's which is completely contrary to what conservatives actually believe in. But they don't care about the truth. They have an agenda and if they have to lie that's completely acceptable to them. How they get there doesn't matter. They'll slander you, physically attack you, ruin your life, burn down your city, or even kill you. History shows that's true. They don't care about the damage or the harm or the pain they inflict.

These are dangerous people.

I was researching free speech earlier today and one of the search results was for a group called "Free Speech TV" and naturally I wanted to check it out to see if it was a good resource. In reality it's a hard Left propaganda site pretending to support free speech. The entire site is anti-Trump, pro-Socialist garbage. There's not one ounce of criticism toward any candidate from the Democratic Party. It should be named "We Hate America TV" but that would be honest and the Left is never honest. Consider Amy Goodman, the Communist who hosts the radio show "Democracy Now". Her entire show complains about America, promotes Marxism, and defends everything ever done by the Palestinians. Black Lives Matter is another fraudulent organization. Go to their website and see what they really stand for. They don't care about black people. BLM exists to promote Marxism and they use racism as a cover to gain public support. Half the homes in my neighborhood have "Black Lives Matter" signs in their yards and are occupied by white liberals who probably have no idea what they're really supporting. I give BLM credit for their branding, though. You can't criticize them without looking like a racist, even if your intent is to expose them as the racists that they actually are. And if you say black lives matter, in the most generic way possible, you're still promoting a racist Marxist organization. So good job, BLM, on your branding, but you're still a horrible, hate filled organization.

Space permitting, I could list hundreds of authoritarian, socialist, freedom-hating organizations and websites that hide behind wonderful sounding names that could compel you to support them. Often their true goals are far more sinister than their websites suggest.

But I'll give them one break: they have to lie. If they told people the truth, no one would support them. Lying is the only way the Democratic Party can win an election. Brainwashing kids in school is the only way students can be convinced that America is so evil that it's OK to commit domestic terrorism and risk decades in prison. 

The Left lies. It does it all day, every day. It never stops. So when your neighbor or relative puts up a BLM sign in their yard or starts complaining about that fascist in the White House, stand your ground but have a little pity too. The propaganda they're exposed to is relentless and very powerful. It becomes their reality. Up becomes down. Fiction becomes truth. And what they call freedom is actually enslavement.
