Short Takes – America’s Brown Shirts?
Opinion July 6, 2018
America’s Brown Shirts?
Does Maxine Waters represent her version of America’s Brown Shirts? The rash of organized deranged fascists screaming in the faces of Trump supporters, Republican officials and anyone with a MAGA hat, is emblematic of Ernst Roehm’s Brown Shirts of a by gone era in a country far, far away. Roehm directed violence against anyone who did not render the salute of the National Socialist Party, who tried a to enter a Jewish owned shop of refused to take a SD handout on the glories of National Socialism. To not learn from history is to repeat it.
What is the difference between Maxine Waters directing her followers to harass Trump conservatives in cafes, restaurants and public places, and Ernst Roehm’s directing his Brown Shirts to destroy Jewish property as was done on “Crystal-night?”
The fact that Maxine Waters, an elderly, ugly black woman is doing her best imitation of Ernst Roehm, a fat ugly white Jew hater, is proof enough that for America’s Progressives any nut job can become a despotic leader of anarchists when he/she is determined to overturn, by threats, violence and intimidation, the will of the people.
This is not good and will not turn out well for them. Even Chuckie Schumer realizes the dangers of an uncivil, dissolving society divided by the policies of Barack Obama, into warring camps of have’s and have not’s, identity groups and base tribalism to enforce their demands.
Why is Maxine Waters screeds at democrat election rallies not considered “Hate Speech?” Why is it not a hate crime for a restaurant owner (Red Hen) to refuse service to customers on her “moral grounds” because they are Republicans not equal to a pastry baker refusing to bake a wedding cake for sodomites on his moral grounds and getting hammered for it?
Democrats, “Hypocrisy is thy name.” How does a failing political party that wants to remain valid in the voters eyes, rid itself of the nut cases that present a clear and present danger to their longevity? Ernst Roehm was never laughed at Indeed, he organized battalions of well controlled street thugs into fascists and, to instill pride, uniformed them in the party’s colors, to show the public who they were, and that they intended to control the streets of German cities.
The legions of anarchists Maxine Waters is encouraging to take to the streets do not goose-step in nifty uniforms singing the Horst Wessel song, they wear “hoodies” and masks to hide their faces from police surveillance filming while they scream and holler trying to drown out the free speech of Conservatives, bash conservative speakers and their followers and destroy private property in their feigned rage and challenge the police sent out to confront them.
They are no longer afraid of the civil authority of municipalities, counties or states. We’ve entered into another era of common place violence, not because it hasn’t happened before, but because there are now so many more of them, and us, that can’t be ignored.
Berkeley, Calif., Portland, Ore., and Baltimore, Md. are three examples of cities under siege by the threats of intimidation by fascist “hoodies,” who magically appear on the streets to ‘protest’ the presence of any conservative speaker, event, parade or rally, that doesn’t comport to their demands for inclusivity, multiculturalism and diversity, all the society divisive tenants of Marxism. America is arming up. If you haven’t you should, and take lessons on how to defend yourselves. You, me, all of us, must be prepared for the coming storm, but in the end, we will win.

Short Takes – A View of Revolutions
Opinion July 11, 2018 A View of Revolutions
The Progressive media propagandists and Democrats, when unable to mount a viable argument supporting their version of why fascistic socialism is good for America, inevitably turn to name calling, their favorite being to call Conservatives Nazi’s. In their beady little minds that word encompasses racism, sexism, islamophobia, white privilege, etc., etc. & etc.
Of course, listening to their screeds, one immediately knows the Leftists don’t know what they’re talking about. They are in fact, describing themselves and apparently don’t know it. It’s because they already have ruined our educational systems where these things should be learned, turning out instead, little socialists who will go where directed, do what they’re told and suffer the consequences, if any, all by themselves.
Because we are entering the beginning phase of a serious social and cultural revolution, I had thought of framing what i see in terms of comparison to the French Revolution that was underway simultaneously with our own American revolution. The outcomes of both were completely different. The French violently overthrew their monarchy to replaced it with a Republic but, first came “The Terror” where anybody, on the simple accusation of an offended neighbor could face the guillotine. This was official anarchy, rule of law as the mob demands, pure democracy by definition. The Terror ended with the rise of a strong Corsican leader who organized the army, stopped the violence and installed a functional Republic free of violence.
When calling conservatives “Nazi’s,” what the Democrats don’t say is that Nazi’s came to power by the vote. Germans were desperate, their economy was in tatters, the world was in a depression and Germany was still paying war reparations while Bolsheviks were trying to organize control of Germany’s desperate population along Marx-Leninist principles. So were the National Socialists and the Weimar Republic. In other words, Hitler was legitimate and, even though he threatened and bullied his way into leadership, he was still elected by popular vote.
The Russian Revolution, like the French, was launched against the Monarchy. Like the French it too was violent but ended with a despot (Stalin) in control who murdered millions. The Chinese followed suit as did the Cambodians, the Vietnamese, the Cubans and now, even Venezuela. It’s precisely that type of government that Democrats want for America and when the flames of our revolution subside, they expect to be there to pick up the pieces. Nobody will complain.
But, things turned out different. Trump is the Napoleon of our Republic and the desperate Democrats are nearly prostrate with grief at the election loss of Dear Hillary. But, having learned under Obama that street violence will work if applied under some “civil rights” meme, they are turning to confrontation as their final battle plan. Obama designed his policies specifically to enrage a social and economic underclass against “the American nobility” whoever they are.
The mounting failures of the Progressive to socialize America is generating not only their own hate speech, but violent hate action as well by direct confrontations of Conservatives on the streets and in places. Let’s not forget the rising assaults of police officers murdered while they sit in their patrol cars or respond to calls. The Progressive Democrats, now turning to physical violence to protest their loss, intend to generate more violence. It will continue, in rising crescendo, until police lose their fear of fighting back or of being hauled into court charged with some nonsense about being too aggressive. We need to reclaim the streets again before the Progressives really get organized with their zombie battalions.

Short Takes – American’s, Starved For Decency
Opinion July 2, 2018 American’s, Starved For Decency
“Live and let live” was once a cherished but un-codified phrase that kept us from punching each other’s headlights out over minor disagreements on any number of subjects. It has been swept away by the political philosophy of socialism that demands complete control over everything, the rule of laws be damned. At the local level it’s best seen in the rising incidents of road rage.
Democrats calling for “resistance” have shed all pretense of civility to “live and let live.” It’s to be their way or no way. A year and a half out, they still haven’t grasped the truth that they are no longer in charge of the federal government. All that’s left for them is to yap and snip at the heels of the real leader we now have in Donald Trump, and his supporters.
The politeness scenario that once guided our debates, has been swept away by hysterical
Democrats desperate to retain any claim on power. Three successive national elections have left Democrats stunned. Searching for other methods of maintaining relevance and with no more arguments left in their playbook except “Stop Trump”, they have turned to their chapter on anarchy and are actively encouraging attacks on conservatives through intimidating, in your face name calling, screaming spittle frothing epitaphs and character defamation screeds. When democrats wielded power they used the Dept. of Justice and the now corrupted FBI, not to mention the IRS, to eliminate their opponents. For Democrats, civility is gone, lies are commonplace and to ignore all ideas other than their Marxist scribblings, is expected.
That simple phrase, “live and let live,” encompassed principles that, along with an understanding of the ten commandments, guided us as citizens to live together in peace and harmony and accept the differences. We went together to the 4th of July parades and picnics, the evening fireworks, Veterans day events and all the pro-American programs that reflected American’s pride, and we did it without fighting one another. Americans are starved for decency.
The Socialist theories of economic control, that has taken over the whole of the Democrat Party, and has infiltrated GOP ranks, might explain why Republicans have long been accused of not fighting back, but going along to get along with the Socialists to the point of even agreeing that what the Democrat-Socialist party wanted was really good for America.
Our streets are on fire and it’s the Democrats doing. Alarmed American’s quickly organized under the Tea Party banner to figure out a way to do what the Republican weren’t doing, fighting back. But, Tea Party members didn’t run around attacking Democrats, destroying property or stealing campaign signs from supporters yards, or defacing bumper stickers.
When Republicans controlled only the House of Representatives, and the Tea Party was clearly considered a dissident group in danger of actually damaging the “Deep State”, liberal politicians, MSM journalists and “Moderate Republicans,” saw no need to be civil toward the Tea Partiers and the stage was set for where we are today, both parties in disarray, as they should be, and little can be done to remedy it. Nothing heals faster than open wounds, properly treated.
“Demands for civility almost always come from people who lost their own right to the respect they expect. The last resort of someone who has run out of good moral arguments is lies, innuendoes, falsehoods and now, resistance. Democrats have lost the stage on which to act out their identity as politicians and have turned into the anarchists they now are.

Short Takes – Independence Day, Can We Keep it?
Opinion July 6, 2018 Independence Day, Can We Keep It?
As Americans, we see that the focus of the rising tempo of incivility in our public discourse has moved from politics to issues of culture and we must ask why? Well, it’s because for America, the political arguments have already been settled although one side won’t admit it. It’s settled because of our Constitution which gives us our inalienable rights. The defense of that document has risen exponentially to the assault on it.
The great struggle now, between constitutionalists and the marxists has morphed into the cultural arena that avoids the distasteful facts of logic, truths and law, those trivial little items that impede their move to socialism. Its tenants, protected by “political correctness,” allows PC proponents to range widely in their destructive process of changing America’s culture, if not its laws, before the people could catch on. It almost worked, then along came Trump!
Political Correctness is the hand-maiden of diversity, multiculturalism, socialism, fascism and communism. It is the vehicle used to change our cultural norms. For example, once, the important emphasis taught in school was on the proper use of the English language. After the Civil Rights law era, It was abandoned as a requirement specifically because of diversity, inclusiveness and multiculturalism. Some couldn’t or wouldn’t understand it. Today, our language is a mishmash of Babel. That’s only one aspect of the Lefts hidden attack on Americas exceptionalism. If they can’t read or write, they’re going nowhere. That applies to all races.
Political correctness requires no authority. it survives on the precept of exclusion and fear. It exists solely on what “group think” determines to be correct and uses the power of the mob, whether its the media or the Hollywood Leftists, or the street thugs like Antifa and BLM, to challenge, almost daily, our Presidents authority. It is this fear that keeps us everyday, working class Americans in check because our side doesn’t do what they do. We are constitutionalists and expect the rule of law to function. We relay on debate and persuasion to make our choices and we are not prepared, yet, to bash heads
For the Left, political correctness denies the “free exercise clause” unless it’s for them alone. That requires disciplined adherence to group think or blind allegiance, and to disagree with them, is to invite the wrath of the Lefts public approbation like the rejection Kayne West is now experiencing for his apostasy.
The theater of the street, now extended into the dining rooms of public restaurants, has become the stage for the Lefts threatening noisy attacks on constitutionality and civility. Screaming over the objections of others and drowning out other opinions is the Lefts only way to stay relevant. They intend to paralyze the process by division and political polarization and until Trump, they were succeeding. That being the case, how does the once successful union of American politics and culture survive in the future? Apparently it won’t. The Left is engaged in an all or nothing battle to kill our independence and move us into the common ranks of a one world government.
To be in politics is because those are paying jobs, even if it costs more to get the job then the job pays. There’s a contradiction there, surely? But, with the job however, comes the reward of legitimate authority, until the next election. Since the authority gifted by elections is essential to the Lefts agenda, they will take all steps necessary to ensure the Left does not lose those elections. So far, it’s not workings quite well as as they had hoped. It’s our Independence day, not theirs. So enjoy it. It’s Independence Day, not July 4th. Let’s try to keep it.

Short Takes – The Derangement of Compassionate Fascists

The Derangement of Compassionate Fascists
As a conservative, I could not be more grateful or pleased for their contributions to Trump’s continued Presidency and the assurance of his re-election in 2020, then that provided by the continuing Mueller circus, the daily visual presence of Hillary Clinton and the deranged mutterings of California’s premier female nut job, after Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, that brilliant light of intellectual acumen, faultless sense of timing and thrilling rhetorical skills. Thank you, thank you, thank you all! Did I fail to mention the unravelling exposure of the DoJ and FBI’s biased leadership as bonafide anti-Trump Progressives who actually (not figuratively) engaged in an insiders coup attempt against the Trump administration? That’s a criminal act.
If one thinks they can succeed in staging a coup against a legally elected administration, then the decision must be made to go all in and make a clean kill or face the hangman. Gibbets have been filled with failed coup attempters. In some places, it’s firing squads. Whatever is the punishment, it must be carried out ruthlessly and quickly or no message of its futility is left to stem those deranged few who would still contemplate their place in history.
The entire Democrat-Socialist party has entered the dark forbidding realm of conscious hysteria as evidenced by the uncivilized reactions of the lefts politicians and voters toward conservatives like Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her Red Hen Restaurant experience. Lest we forget, it started last year with the attempted murders by a deranged democrat at the Republican congressional baseball practice shooting at Congressmen. The Left’s reactions to Trumps wielding the powers of the executive by trying to seal the border and stem the flow on Illegals across our borders is driving them bonkers. So is Trumps tariffs, his North Korean exercise in diplomacy and Trumps growing American economy.
“Obsession over a tree ignores the forest.” Obsessing over a few staged photos of weeping little children allegedly being separated from their gate crashing parents, or coyotes, or sex trade traffickers, or whatever, ignores the real problem, that we’re being invaded. To stop the flow does not require more police or soldiers on the border, simply deny invaders the monetary support they need to survive here. Eliminate the welfare we spend supporting them.
The Left seems convinced that the righteousness of their lunatic cause justifies their attacks as their absolute right to correct a gross error made by America’s “deplorable’s,” we who didn’t see the true value of a Hillary Clinton presidency and who simply don’t recognize the dangers inherent in Constitutional representative government over their version of compassionate fascism.
Their ignorance of is revealed when they characterize Conservatives as Nazi’s when they are are describing themselves. Their lack of education on history is apparent when they don’t know or recognize the difference between fascist National Socialism, which is what Democrats want, and Constitutional Representative government, which is what we now have and will continue to have, unless we can’t beat back the continued assault on our better senses.
Why, for example, does Mueller’s Colonoscopy probe still continue when the unfolding Congressional probe into the FBI has undercut its legitimacy? No prosecutor could possibly take Mueller’s tainted fake evidence to a Grand Jury and expect to gain an indictment. No, no. It simply won’t do! End the charade and stop the Mueller fiasco.

Short Takes – A Contagion of Mental Illness
Opinion July 6, 2018 A Contagion of Mental Illness
Dementia appears to be a growing phenomena in our society, but really, it’s simply because there are more of us. But, for a whole group, a body of singular individuals to display the disease of mass hysteria, now infecting the Democrat party, is alarming.
Well, maybe not, Remember the Jim Jones mass suicide by poison event in Guayana a few years ago? So maybe it’s not so rare. The Jim Jones business was supposedly a Christian sect under siege while the loser Democrats bow the knee of fealty to the church of Progressivism and are distraught that the rest of us don’t. Their brave new world plans are in tatters.
In any event, while medical science strives to understand and control the causes of individual mental illnesses, they have no idea how to control the growing phenomena of mass hysteria that is consuming the Democrat-Socialist Party.
It is easily identifiable as Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) and reveals itself daily in some form of collective outrage. Perhaps we can call the Democrats the “POP” or the Perpetually Outraged Party because that’s what they’re doing.
The November 2016 election triggered the spark that drove the POP’s nuts when their beloved candidate, Hillary Clinton, got ‘snuffed out’ by the populist, Donald Trump, even when they firmly believed the fix was in and she couldn’t lose. The POP’s failure to elevate Hillary Clinton to the Presidency as one who would validate their worldview, was more than their body politic could bear thus, the derangement antics to which we are now witness.
Understandably, the symptoms of derangement are not limited to the Deep State bureaucrats who technically do run the government as we see with the Mueller road show. The sickness has even spread out to little towns, like Lexington, in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, famous only because the Virginia Military Institute (VMI) is there and the Cadets once participated in a battle against the Union Army at New Market, losing five, and now the Red Hen Cafe fiasco.
The POP’s, totally incapable of containing their dissolution, is spinning out of control like a leaderless Antifa mob bent on making their point. Illuminaries like Maxine Waters, determined in her own mind to impeach Trump, rails against all logic, froths at the mouth directing her small cast of followers to confront conservatives when ever they see them, especially Trumps supporters and employees, and ignores pleas from her leadership to tone it down. She hasn’t and she won’t. For the GOP, she’s the gift that keeps on giving Thank you, Maxine!
Poor Nancy Pelosi no longer counts. She just sits there bewildered muttering nonsense that an embarrassed press ignores to save her the shame of acknowledging her approaching dementia.
Today, the POP’s ire is directed to stop the final nail being driven in their Socialist coffin, Trump’s expected choice of another Conservative jurist for the Supreme Court. They are helpless to prevent it. To their twisted logic, it is intolerable that Trump, the Populist, should be able to fill the court with constitutionalists.That wasn’t the way the game was planned to be played. The court was theirs to pack, not Trumps.
Like the Red Tide that occasionally shows up on Florida beaches killing the fish, the Red Tide of Trump’s populism is invading the Blue pool of Democrats Socialism. The outcome is inevitable.

Short Takes – The Agenda, Why They Won’t Stop
Opinion July 6, 2018 “The Agenda” – Why They Will Not Stop
Twenty years ago our government was in the hands of a misogynist, but popular nincompoop, one William Jefferson Clinton. His tawdry life’s experiences, beyond his official duties, is too painful and sordid to repeat here. We all know the tale. What we don’t know was why the idiots in the Democrat Party rallied so hard to keep him in office. Because he led the agenda called “The Third Way” and maintaining ‘the agenda’ was far more important than the man.
A Washington Post article dated 9 Aug.1998, by E.J. Dionne, titled “The Big Idea,” explained why Democrats stuck with Bill Clinton throughout the Lewinsky scandal and his impeachment for lying. The article also introduced us “the Third Way.” Dionne wrote: “most of Clinton’s party will support him as long as they can. They see him…as the only figure who can make the party’s case.”…Until they don’t!
Thomas Friedman wrote in the NY Times: “if there was no hope for the Agenda, what need is there for the man?” Friedman conceded Clinton’s personal failures and opined that perhaps he indeed needed to go,…. to save the agenda.
Bill Clinton went sailing with Walter Cronkite, a confirmed globalist who totally subscribed to a mandatory one world government to prevent a catastrophic third world war. At least that’s what he said in his book, A Reporters Life. Cronkite advised Clinton he should resign so the Agenda could proceed. Cronkite wanted the worlds nations to yield up their “precious sovereignty”…and establish a World Executive and a Parliament of Nations. We see how successful that has been with the European Union and the failing United Nations. It’s not working well, is it?
None the less, for a short while even the media joined in in asking for Clinton’s resignation. This was also the time of the Soviet Unions collapse and the new Russian Premier, Boris Yeltsin, calling for a Third Way, needing American support. Perhaps a savior at last!. Clinton’s White House press secretary, Mike McCurry said “For us, it has always been true, the policy matters more than personality.” In other words, the agenda transcends the man.
Clinton’s decision not to quit stands in sharp contrast to poor ol’ Richard Nixon who statesmanlike, resigned his presidency when he was advised to. Democrats are not statesmen but socialist driven aparatchek’s and their goal is still The Third Way, a one world government.
The real power brokers didn’t want Clinton to quit.because that would have ushered in the climate idiot Al Gore, to “heal the nation.” They knew that Gore lacked the charisma to drive their grandiose scheme but, If Clinton like Nixon, was driven from the field, then who would become Gore’s VP,? It had to be someone with the charisma to advance their agenda. No-one in the Democrat party fit the bill so they looked around and guess who they saw? Why, our own Newt Gingrich already a popular Third Way proponent. This may explain why Republicans don’t fight the Democrats. They’re all cut from the same cloth with the same agenda!
Then came Bush’s Compassionate Conservatism, or socialist lite, who couldn’t get it done; then the great black hope, Barak Obama. How did a nobody, with no history, no records and no achievements, become President so fast? Was a fix really in? But, alas, he couldn’t do it either and tried to pass the ball to Hillary Clinton, who hated him, just to save the Agenda. He hated the Clinton’s too, but “The agenda” mattered most. With Donald Trump, their whole plan is in abeyance. There is a Deep State and It is controlled by the oligarchs of the world banks.

Short Takes – Does Hollywood Matter Any More?
Opinion June 13, 2018 Apparently, the Tony award’s were on last night. I didn’t know. It was in todays news when it was revealed once again, that the IQ level of actor Robert DeNiro, who publicly expressed his deep level of disdain, or rather his hatred for President Donald Trump, hadn’t changed.
When a celebrity uses only base rhetoric to express an opposing political opinion, such as using the one word that best describes one of life’s more pleasurable functions betweens the sex’s, as a statement of fact, then we have achieved the collapse of polite discourse and the sure sign that DeNiro’s “Peter Principal” level has been reached. DeNiro has achieved his highest level of intellectual attainment, a triumph of idiocy over debate. To the cheering Hollywood crowd, his word is final, but nobody really cares anymore, do they? Now, it’s only a news item.
The world is focusing on historic events: the just concluded G-7 Trade summit, the ludicrous after Trump statement by Canadian Premier Trudeau, the land creation going on in Hawaii and the land melting event in Guatemala, not to mention President Trumps mission to Singapore for a singular historic event, the first ever summit meeting between a North Korean despot, Kim Jung Un, and the President of the United States, and we are favored with DeNiro’s opinion.
We are in a whirl of world shaping news events to the point we almost can’t keep up and an aging pretty good movie actor, DeNiro, of no specific intellectual achievement, chooses a medium most Americans have stopped viewing, award shows, to offer up once again his learned opinion on the President of the United States.
What DeNiro reinforced by his tirade was that the Hollywood of today is no longer important except as a money raising machine for Democrats. Hollywood is disappearing, much of it having moved right here to Georgia. Most Americans already know what DeNiro thinks about conservative politics and it’s newest spokesman, Donald Trump, so we can safely ignore it.
What hurts most is the wild cheering by attendees applauding DeNiro’s version of the “truth” as DeNiro so cunningly expressed it. Some call the actor an “outspoken critic” of Trump, and he is but, who cares anymore? DeNiro can never speak his opinion without employing the lowest level of his rhetorical skills, using the “F___” word again and again. Maybe it’s his highest level.
These seemingly constant televised award shows by the entertainment industry patting itself on the back, have morphed into political action exercises by the Left to confirm their anti-American, anti-conservative and pro-Clinton opinions. They do it in the certain belief that simply because they have achieved celebrity or get a nomination to receive a silly trophy that has to be dusted once a week, that their opinion really matters. That is a delusional level above which people with excessively highly developed egos, like movie actors, rarely advance. The odd man out of course, is Donald Trump. His ego is his driving force and achievement, its reward.
Hollywood once expressed America’s culture in great movies; the culture that defeated the Nazi’s, the Japanese and later, economically, the Soviets. That’s the culture that drew thousands of intelligent immigrants to our shores to become Americans, not the culture of Hollywood today, demanding social changes Trump won’t give them. Theirs is the culture of political correctness, profane ideas and nasty words. Theirs is the culture of sexual exclusivity, diversity, inclusion, glorifying sodomites and multiculturalism, the direct antithesis of Americanism. Trump has changed the formula for success and they can’t stand it.

Short Takes – The Illegal Immigration Problem Will Still Persists
Opinion June 8, 2018 The Illegal Immigration Problem Will Still Persist
I was seriously alarmed listening to radio host Hugh Hewitt’s interview with Attorney General, Jeff Sessions on the subject of illegal immigration. In fact I couldn’t believe my ears when Hewitt argued on the basis of unfounded compassion “for the children” who are separated from their parents when apprehended at the border, to which Mr. Jeff Sessions replied, their is no compassion when children are separated from their parents when parents are headed for prison! I made the same observation in a recent essay on the subject.
Mr. Hewitt assumed a “compassionate conservative” attitude about the poor illegal immigrants children being taken (snatched) away from their parents at the borders. During the interview he persisted in tempting AG Sessions to express a level of compassion too .He did not. AG Sessions held his ground on the basis of the law.and rightly pointed out that the majority of those children were teens or young adults anyway.
Hugh Hewitt then asked: “There’s an organization called Kids in Need of Defense, and, they’re liberal activists, but they have a point that these children deserve representation, because many of them are eligible for asylum or refugee status. You’re the chief law enforcement officer. Are you guaranteeing that these 10,000 children have adequate access to legal counsel?” That entire premise is wrong. I contend, these people deserve no representation at our expense because they are stateless people and have no call for our protections. They are entitled to protection in custody, a bed, food and water and that’s it. That satisfies our moral duty.
This whole illegal aliens business, has been turned into a touchy feely, sobbing exercise in unwarranted compassion for the ignorant masses crashing our borders. Permitting it relaxes our defenses and diminishes our security. The porous border with Mexico, due to its ease of passage, is a magnet for the worlds worst now including Chinese tongs, Islamic Jihadists, drug cartels, MS-13 gang members and who knows what other criminal types?
When caught, they’ve been coached to simply claim ‘amnesty’ and demand entry. Except for Cuban’s and maybe Venezuelans now, no other South American country’s citizens should expect “amnesty.” But, that problem can be solved if Congress, gets over it’s hand wringing deliberations on DACA, make claiming amnesty applicable only at US Ports of Entry and nowhere else. Illegal DACA children are still Stateless People. DACA was one of Obama’s “pen and phone’ deals, not supported by law, not ratified by Congress not agreed to by Americans, but, a feel good policy created out of thin air to up the Democrat voter rolls. Dispensing drivers licenses and voter ID cards to illegals, as California does, diminishes the very basis of our representative government, not to mention their drivers licenses in out of state jurisdictions.
Clearly Congress is disconnected from the will of the American\ people unable as they are to make a decision as the law provides, on stopping the invasion of America. Half of California’s Mexicans are against DACA because it steals from their legitimacy. On top of that, California is almost bankrupt yet the Progressive government still piles on more freebies for illegals.
Members of congress, whose only goal is their re-election, must face the demands of their constituents, for and against, amnesty. The majority is “anti” amnesty yet, the loudest screaming voices for amnesty and work authorizations, from the Left, will drive them to legalize millions of illegals who have no desire to become Americans, join our culture, or obey our laws, the will of the people be damned. What an argument for term limits.

Short Takes – Are the Tea Party’s Moribund?
Opinion June 6, 2018 Are the Tea Party’s Moribund?
“Associated Press declares Republican ‘Tea Party’ era has faded away…..” Hummn? Maybe, but I disagree with the premise asserted here by noting that pop-up, grass root political organizations like Tea Party’s, were mostly filled with aroused, angry people born in the 40’s and 50’s, who lived through the WW2 years and beyond, and enjoyed America’s post-war heyday of economic growth, prosperity and good living, only to see their parents achievements being replaced by the corrupting philosophy’s of national socialism, the same socialism their parents had just defeated. It was their parents who were the “Greatest Generation” and today, their children tend to get a bit tired after they’ve accomplished what they set out to do.
Regardless of clearly commercial Internet Tea Party organizations that claim some primary roll over the movement, Tea Party’s were really local attempts to make a difference by people who realized their Representative were not doing what the base wanted but instead were spending without control and raising taxes to pay for it. Taxed Enough Already was the Tea Party’s mantra and still is. What they realized was, is that politics should not be a career choice.
Attending political meetings where you’re told what you already know and nothing really seems to get done, quickly loses its appeal. Most meetings are merely platforms for speech makers to energize the enthusiasm of the base to do one thing and one thing only, effect “term limits” one politician at a time and, that has been done.
Three successive national elections has completely changed the Congress from a majority of Marxist leaning Democrats and go along to get along Republicans happy not to have been kicked out by their constituents, to a majority of Republicans being pushed and cajoled by the few Tea Party members elected to replace dangerous democrats. More Changes are coming!
Time passes and enthusiasm wanes, but not the determination to make America great. The denizens of “fly-over” America have seen the results of their combined efforts to make the changes needed in the body politic. Enthusiasts, no matter how their called, Tea Party or GOP or whatever, have succeeded. The battle is joined.
At this moment, our President is Donald Trump, not a politician but a pragmatists, a doer who is doing what he promised he would and returning to Americans the pride they felt in their country that the previous administration apologized away. Weakness invites contempt. America is no longer weak.
The Tea Party movement encouraged a morose population of patriots to get off their butts and start changing their attitudes from defeatism and disheartening acceptance of the coming Socialism, to realizing the righteousness of America’s constitutional representative government, and connivence others to change their attitudes too. It worked in three successive elections.
Today, we see a rising tide of minority Americans of African descent realizing they have been kept on the lowest level of the economic plantation created by the Democrats, and are starting to rebel, despite what the Black Shirts of the Fascist anarchy movements, AntiFa and BLM, want. America is on the threshold of greatness and we need all our citizens involved in the task. That’s the promise Trump has brought us, and that’s the promise he’s keeping. Conservatives can no longer enjoy the policy of bipartisanship with an enemy that wants to destroy us.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, let’s go get ‘em! (03Jun18)
Short Takes – A Return to the Draft? A Memorial Day Thought
Opinion May 30, 2018 Suggestions are swirling again about a return to the draft. For those born after the 1960’s, the draft was compulsory military service for two or more years. Throughout America’s history from the Civil War to Vietnam, different rules governed who was drafted, how one could get a deferment or a buy out, or get a political commission to work his time on a staff. That was all rife for abuse, and, it was abused.
Deferments were applied to account for medical reasons like, say flat feet and lung diseases, but a medical officer at the induction stations would make that decision. If you got your notice, you had to show up for induction and if you passed, your life changed forever.
Political deferments for celebrities, politicians and sons of politicians, like Ted Kennedy, were created while many others, stood up, begging their way into uniform. John Kennedy and his older brother did so. They weren’t famous then but their father had been US Ambassador to the UK. Hollywood stars flocked to the ranks during WW2 and did their duty as the government needed, including combat.
The draft was a numbers system, most draftees going into the army. With usable skills, one could be enrolled in a technical program for training as a mechanic, medic, or radio operator, otherwise, it was into one of the combat arms, Infantry sucking up the most. Only a few draftees ever went into the US Marine Corps or the Navy, because they filled their needed quota’s with volunteers. Many escaped the draft by school deferments and some when drafted, ran away to hide. During the Vietnam war, it was to Canada.
Many, eager to fight, volunteered to join a combat arm. That’s where the action was. For many, it wasn’t until they were covered with blood, sweat and the brains of their buddies, that they realized the awful truth about combat. It’ was then when a boy became a man and what he experienced would stay with him for the rest of his life. Every Memorial Day reveals more of these stories as the old Vet’s pass away.
Since 9/11, the military has had no problem filling its ranks with volunteers.These patriotic young people, with a few exceptions like Bowie Bergdahl, stay the course and remained loyal active members of their units. Many re-enlist to continue the fight and many comeback without limbs, emotionally traumatized or forever needing care. Some alas, never come back.
America celebrates these fighters twice a year, Memorial day and Veteran’s day when the sacrifices of our military men and women are recognized and honored. How many people do you see today stand to attention when the American flag passes in review? Veterans always do. It’s honor and sacrifice.
The problem with a return of the draft today is that most of our youths are not qualified. They have been subverted by an education system, its teaching ranks filled with the anti-war radicals from the 1960’s, like the Clintons. Our schools have failed to educate our young people about Americas traditional values and why we fight, or have lied about our history making it hateful. That’s a sad but true fact. The one great pool of true Americanism, the Boy Scouts, is being perverted into a potential pool for pedophiles.
Do we need a return to the military draft? I don’t think so! To recreate a program that expects its personal to perform, even to die on a battlefield, but turns many of them into deserters requiring efforts by the military to keep them, was never good for moral. Cowards in the ranks reveal themselves quickly and their whining can bring the moral of a whole unit down to their level of defeatism. Too, a new draft would now necessarily demand the inclusion of our daughters. Those that want to go, can do so now. Those that don’t, should stay home and tend the home fires. Today, on this Memorial Day, just be thankful Hillary Clinton’s not President. That’s worth cheering about.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! Hug a soldier today and have a happy Memorial day event. (26May18)
Short Takes – Where We’re Going
Opinion June 1, 2018 Where We’re Going
It now stands without question, after James Clappers admission under the withering tongue blathering he received from that pillar of elite intellectual liberalism, Joy Behar on the “View,” that he, James Clapper and John Brennen, heads of their respective spy agencies, conspired with the FBI’s Comey, to spy on the Donald Trump campaign (Watergate x ten). The genesis for this seditious activity is simply that the criminal Hillary Clinton, lost the prize to Donald Trump. That loss left the doors open and the chickens are fleeing the roost.
Democrats truly believe that Donald Trump is a clear and present danger to (their) America and “resistance” to him is absolutely necessary. It’s “all hands to the oars,” that sort of thing. It’s amazing to see how fast their cunningly crafted house of cards is collapsing under Trump’s refusal to be bullied like any normal Republican would. They’ve become deranged at Trump’s success, befuddled by their failures to bring him down and distraught they cannot counter his successes. They are bereft of any arguments, plans or policies that would benefit America. That is why they cling to their foolish notions of a Trump-Russian collusion. But, it’s OK they did it!
Now their ‘resistance’ has passed far beyond simple dissent, it’s sedition; It’s not disagreement, it’s total hatred. We can hate the Democrats. We can suspect it’s they who are the worst thing happening to America, but we can’t work with them because they don’t play by the rules. They created their own rules that voters have rejected and, when they consistently reject the results of elections they don’t win, then all that’s left is the potential for anarchy.
Democrats have ruled for so long that they see themselves as the only legitimate power in the country. Whenever Republicans exercise power, as Trump is doing, it’s illegitimate and he faces the consequences of Impeachment. When Obama did the same things, he was praised for his brilliant leadership. The double standards there are choking, but Democrats, supported by their propaganda machine, the mainstream media, are never affected. Forget it, let’s move on.
What prompted this essay is the clumsiness of James Clapper to keep his stories straight, and the near violent reactions of John Brennan to the demands for the release of documents from the FBI and DoJ to the Congress that demands them. Brennan is near apoplectic in his reactions. Clapper and Brennan, as heads of their respective spy agencies, according to Clapper on the “View,” did spy on the Trump campaign. That’s one chicken out of the roost. There is no possible excuse or subterfuge that can obscure their treasonous act(s).
Their problem was, they failed to use the professionals in their agencies to do the dirty work relying instead on a host of foreigners, democrat office workers, in house savants of the FBI and the compliant media to protect their backs, by clouding the issues and promote their lies. Federal bureau heads seem to screw up simple operations, making mistakes the professionals under them would never make. To coin an old phrase, C,C. & B. “let the cat out of the bag.”
Republicans now hold the reins of complete power, and don’t know what to do. But, what do the Democrats do? They set about, right or wrong, obstructing Trumps initiatives trying to save Obama’s agenda through the federal courts and what’s left of their bureaucratic deep state. When a federal judge issues an order telling the President of the United States he cannot perform this or that function, then that’s like the first guns fired at Ft. Sumpter. Has it started? Yes it has, but a long time ago. It could get very messy now. We must be prepared.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (30May18)
Short Takes – Revealing the Coup
Opinion May 25, 2018 A name rarely mentioned in this tawdry ‘coup’ against Trump business, is recently retired Admiral Mike Rogers, head of the NSA with the dual capacity as the Director of the newly forming Cyber Command. If I were asked to select a candidate for a “Profiles in Courage” award, it would surely be Admiral Rogers, followed by Rep. Devin Nunes..
Over a year ago, both of these men took independent action when they recognized that things were not kosher in Obama’s government after Hillary lost her sure bet election. Progressives reaction to their election loss was disastrous and what Mike Rogers did was unprecedented. In his capacity as head of the NSA, it was his responsibility to share NSA collected intelligence of special interest with the heads of the other Intelligence agencies, but particularly the CIA Director, John Brennan and the Director of National Intelligence DNI, James Clapper.
It was reported that Mike Rogers was reading some reports that crossed his desk that alarmed him by what they revealed. He immediately cancelled all appointments for the day, packed up his briefcase and in an unprecedented move, headed to NYC for a secret emergency meeting with President-Elect Donald Trump in Trump Tower on 08/11/16. Adm. Rogers did not share the need for this secret emergency meeting with the CIA or the DNI, because clearly, they would have attempted to stop him.
The information he revealed to the President-elect was that Obama’s Intelligence Community, John Brennen and James Clapper, had launched a covert post election spying operation against Donald Trump, that included intercepting Trump’s communications in Trump Tower.
Readers may recall the very next day following that ‘secret’ meeting, Donald Trump claimed that his building had been ‘wired tapped’ and he immediately, moved the Trump organization out of Trump Tower, lock, stock and barrel, to another location accompanied by the hoots, hollers, ‘harumps’ and derisive laughter of the Leftist media and, more importantly, the deep state.
Of course, hard wire intercepts of telephone communications (wiretaps) as were common in earlier decades, are no longer used as technology has quickly advanced far beyond those now antiquated methods. Today, cyber systems are now in vogue that sweep the ‘ether,’ collecting any and all data government computers deems necessary to save itself.
Among those important intercepts that crossed Adm. Rogers desk was information that clearly showed the newly elected president, Donald Trump, was being illegally surveilled in his Trump Tower Headquarters. When the laughter died down, sober faces suddenly realized the import of the disclosure. Day’s later, The Washington Post reported a recommendation, allegedly made in in “October,” that Mike Rogers should be removed from his NSA position & etc..
Obama’s heads in the Pentagon and the intelligence community, urgently recommended to President Obama that, Adm. Rogers, should be removed (fired) as the NSA. head. The panic was setting in, the consternation was complete, but Admiral Rogers maintained his loyalty, his dignity and his self-respect. Clearly, Mike Rogers didn’t want to be involved with the spying scheme which was Obama’s post presidency plan to save his legacy and prevent Trump from removing Obama’s embedded loyalists. Rogers unknown loyalty was a risk to the Obama objectives. He was not a swamp creature and the rest is history and it’s still in the making.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (22May18)
Short Takes – Is a Cataclysm Coming?
Opinion May 30, 2018 The answer depends on what drives ones personal social, religious or economic opinion. One media source warns of a coming war and asks should we be concerned? We’re already at war.
Other sources warns that the government is poised to seize all our bank savings and we should convert to gold, while yet other sources warn of Biblical prophecy coming together as a precursor to Armageddon and the second coming of Jesus. Oh, my! So much to worry about.
Currently newsworthy is the Democrats hysteria over Trumps cancellation of talks with Kim Jong Un. The media screams Donald Trump “was forced to cancel” talks with Kim Jong Un and by extension, Trump, failing to follow the norms used by previous Presidents when dealing with North Korea (capitulation), then all is lost, Trump is incompetent and war is inevitable.
Well, no, Trump wasn’t ‘forced’ to cancel anything. Initially, Trump seized an opportunity to pin Kim against the wall when he accepted Kim’s suggestion for a”summit.” It will only be a surprise to politicians who have no clue about how a poverty stricken, brutal Stalinist regime that is North Korea, operates when squeezing the “West” for sustenance. They have followed their same format for sixty years and Trump called them on it. Even now, Kim is begging for a resumption of the talks. Kim is caught between a rock and a hard spot.
Unknown to the Democrats is Trump’s mastery of the art of persuasion. Trump is not a politician, he’s a doer and whether one negotiates with despots like Kim or for bank loans, the tactics are still the same and most American politicians simply do not have the skills to face off with the likes of a Kim Jung Un, Mano a Mano. Trump has seen ‘em all and he’s holds a strong hand in a game of which he changed the rules. The Joker card is absent from the deck.
Kim’s ploy was as predictable as the coming of elm blight in January. Arrange the meeting, claim actions by the other side are provocative and threaten to withdraw if they are not stopped, redo the effort and finally, alert the North Korean military on the DMZ to battle stations, fire off a few artillery rounds into the Sea of Japan and wait for the Western politicians to capitulate as they have always done. Trump doesn’t play the game that way as we have seen.
I like Nancy Pelosi. She stands as a stalwart exponent for the advancement of conservatism. With her comments on Trump’s foreign policy skills, vis a vis Kim Jung Un, nobody could be better positioned then Nancy Pelosi to drag the Democrat party further into the dim morass of really stupid ideas then she. I ask, what is “a giggle fit?” Months ago Pelosi said: “we must do everything we can to engage North Korea……” then when Donald Trump made it happen, she turns the Democrat party into obstructionists. Actually obstructionism is a bit harsh, because the Democrats are all but powerless, so they are only left mocking the President’s efforts. Where is that “Blue Wave” and when is it going to get here?
How could cancelling the 12 June media event possibly be a “setback” for US foreign policy when the predicable reaction of Kim Jung Un, comes to fruition? Kim will come back to the table. He has to. He has no other choice. The economic squeeze is on and even his back channel sources will be challenged and stopped. Follow the money. Too, he has to look over his shoulder wondering what China’s demands are if he doesn’t already know. China doesn’t need Kim. It just needs to keep the US Army away from its North Korean border. Talk about the rock and the hard spot.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em! (25May18)
Short Takes – Just Another Shooting?
Opinion February 16, 2018 The multiple murders at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in South Florida was absolutely preventable! Yet, the organizations capable of preventing it, did not, could not, or would not, for whatever reasons, take action against a known potential danger because of the fear of social backlash from one group or another because it would interfere with their agendas.
The shooter, by all appearances a mentally disturbed young man, had a developing history of violence in school. He was even forbidden, individually, from bringing a backpack to school. Were school officials afraid he might put a weapon in his backpack? Probably! And then ultimately, because of his anti-social, erratic behavior and explosive temper, he was kicked out of school to become somebody else’s problem. The school, and the school district had no more interest in what became of this young man.
Red flags were everywhere. He was an orphan. Both his parents had died within the last two years or so and he ended up living with another group of young men his own age, unsupervised and by all accounts, collecting his wrath like a gathering storm until the hate that was festering so deep within his bosom was finally released on his former school mates.
Immediately, Democrats and gun grabbers fashioned this as a “gun violence” issue. Nonsense, It was a violence issue, by a recognized mentally unstable youth, possibly drug induced, with a gun who directed his hatred at the very school that kicked him out. His passion expended, he left in his wake a trail of more mental problems, shock, despair, disbelief, all the traits found in soldiers suffering the effects of PTSD, “shell shock.”
This boy, Nikolas Cruz announced his intentions as far back as September 2017. He went on record as wanting to be a school shooter when he posted a YouTube video to that effect. The video, recorded by a Mississippi man was immediately passed on to the FBI with a screen shot, and it was short and alarming: “I’m going to be a professional school shooter.”
Almost immediately, on 25 Sept. 17, law enforcement agents in Mississippi contacted the viewer to determine if he knew Nikolas Cruz or if the threat came from a Mississippi resident. He didn’t and It didn’t! That represents the first and only positive effort by any agency to have tried to thwart Nikolas Cruz. Where was the ball dropped? Who dropped it and why?
So, what happened? The FBI, apparently alerted agents in Mississippi who responded, but then what? Did the FBI follow up? Was Cruz identified as a Florida resident? Was the Broward Co. Sheriffs Office alerted at any point? If so, did some staff Intelligence collector set the FBI’s report off to the side for later action?
“FBI agents did contact the Mississippi man again, after the shootings, to ask if he knew Cruz. He didn’t. That’s a clue to the failure of bureaucracy and trusting in an over worked government to be able to take quick effective action.
Raw intelligence, like the Mississippi man provided, is fungible. Expressions of violence posted on social media sites require emergency action. Federal agencies, like the FBI, are fixated on Islamic Terrorism, yet there are other sources of raw intelligence immediately available that would also have revealed Nikolas Cruz, his fellow students. Post shooting interviews of some students, who knew him, said they were not at all surprised at what he did.
Generally, children in high schools won’t talk voluntarily to the schools resource officer and report on their school mates, but many may actually post a “Secret Witness Note” in a box provided for that purpose. Even a “Secret Witness” social web site could be created but, whatever, these disturbed young people must be identified early and treated.
Laws must be effected that permits such reports so long as they remain constitutional. But, nothing will assuage the heart-breaking questions the families of those seventeen people killed by Nikolas Cruz can answer. The threat was there, the threat was known if not suspected and the ball was dropped. Whose is going to answer for that?
Finally, a word about the unmentioned contributor to the problem, the mind control drug industry that keeps boisterous youth drugged with prescribed mind altering drugs that forces their quite compliance so school administrators are not bothered by boys being boys.
The perpetrators of every single school shooting from Columbine in Colorado to Florida’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, including the church murders in Charleston, SC, were by young men who had been diagnosed by school authorities with behavioral problems correctable by mind altering drugs.
“According to a study published in the journal PLoS One and based on the FDA’s Adverse Event Reporting System, the following mind-altering drugs are most frequently linked to violence:
Desvenlafaxine (Pristiq) is an antidepressant associated with 7.9 times more violence than many other drugs.
Venlafaxine (Effexor) is related to Pristiq and is an antidepressant also used in treating those with anxiety disorders. Effexor is 8.3 times more associated with violent behavior than other drugs.
Fluvoxamine (Luvox) is an antidepressant that affects serotonin (SSRI), and is 8.4 times more likely to be linked to violence than other medications
Triazolam (Halcion) can be addictive and is a benzodiazepine that supposedly treats insomnia. It’s 8.7 times more likely to be associated with violence than other medications.
Atomoxetine (Strattera) is often prescribed to tread ADHD and is 9 times more likely to be associated with violence.
Mefoquine (Lariam) treats malaria and sometimes products bizarre behavior, and is 9.5 times more likely to be linked to violence.
Amphetamines come in many forms and are often used to treat ADHD (even to children not diagnosed with ADHD). They are 9.6 times more likely to be linked to violence.
Paroxetine (Paxil) is an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor) antidepressant. Many users experience severe withdrawal symptoms and are more likely to produce children with birth defects as well as 10.3 times more likely to be linked to violence than other medications.
Fluoxetine (Prozac) is a household name for a powerful SSRI antidepressant linked with 10.9 times more violence than other drugs.
Varenicline (Chantix) s administered to smokers to supposedly help curb cigarette cravings, but it’s a whopping 18 times more likely to be linked to violent behavior than other drugs.
The website SSRIstories.org has a collection of more than 6,000 stories from various media documenting the link between violent incidents and mind-altering drugs.
This list from is found at SSRIstories.org.” Frightening, isn’t it, what schools are doing to our children.
Remember, freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em?
Short Takes – A Divided America, What’s the Cure?
Opinion February 14, 2018 America has long been divided by two contending political philosophies, one created in the firm belief in the god given rights of man through self determination and possession of private property, among others, the inalienable anchors of representative freedoms. The other, a scheme that clings to the Marxist inspired idea that people would be happier when embraced by the comforting arms of a collectivist, benevolent government, in the guise of the Democrat Party.
Into the midst of this conflict of ideas, stepped the most totally corrupt entity to ever enter American politics, the Clintons, man and wife, neither Marxists or Constitutionalists but criminals singularly dedicated to exploiting political divisions for their own self-aggrandizement. Their vehicle to wealth accumulation, power and corruption was through America’s political process.
America’s ill’s will never ever heal until Americans are assured at last, that the entire apparatus of the Clinton’s odious pay to play, personal wealth grabbing, political corrupting, self aggrandizing, treasonous machine is dismantled and she, her husband and all their acolytes stand in the dock to account for their crimes. Only then, will we know the cure has started.
The political struggle has been going on for decades with Socialist-Marxism in the ascendency, until Donald Trump. Trump hasn’t been scheming for years to be President, but is a total newcomer to the governing process because he had finally arrived at his own breaking point. Trump saw that Americas conversion into Socialism was near total and irrevocable. It was his trigger to believe the instauration of American politics was required and he could do it.
So, what does it mean to be a Republican then? Until Trump, absolutely nothing! Republicans, long wanderers in the political wilderness, bought into the socialists agenda for so long that capitulation was considered the norm. No debate, no arguments, just go the Democrats way. The word “bipartisanship” camouflages the exploitative nature of conflicting powers allegedly governing together. Republicans constantly fumbled aways their voters desires to keep America great. They were enjoying their “bipartisanship” and the rewards that came with it. Their greatest trick, as the cliche goes: was their ability to “snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.“ Until Trump!
Trump’s not a Republican and definitely not a Marxist but he’s a wealth creating businessman, a capitalist who convinced us he had the skills to Make America Great Again. He knows how to negotiate and the problems left us from eight years of Obama’s amateurish leadership, his inherent weaknesses and policies of appeasement, is being challenged face on and renegotiated to the screams and laminations of the spavined Democrat party.
Trump came as a champion. Americans, awakened by the Leftist threat, but lacking leadership and not knowing how to confront it, organized into ’quaint’ political groups, were quickly derided by the media and Deep State practitioners of elitism. The result, victory of conservatism in three successive national elections pushing the Democrat party into near oblivion.
The Republicans are starting to do what we have long wanted and what Trump is pushing them to do: expect political success in the face of tough resistance. Lacking an effective strategy for defeating the Democrats, without being pushed from behind, is slowing the process. Americans are resilient, slow to anger but fierce when pushed. The Democrats plotting against Americans in favor of illegals proves they are morally bankrupt and lack any vision to see America as Americans want it. The changes will be painful but in the end, America will be great again.
Remember, Freedom is thew goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em!
