Liars and criminals in charge – when will it end?

Bluntly? It will end when we decide it must – and do something about it.

Let me explain.

Some of the latest news in the Pandemic Panic and Lockdown:

Happy Hanukkah – may liberty in God be found again!

Today (it is after sunset) was the last day of the Festival of Lights, better known as Hanukkah.

Mostly celebrated only by those of the Hebrew faith (Jews), it is a holiday for all lovers of liberty. It is a celebration of liberty and how the Father, YHWH, blessed the ancient people of Judea. Today, we need that blessing, and we need the will to fight for liberty in the same way that ancient Jews did.

How bad it is getting… tyranny in the States

American rulers (there is no other word for them), regardless of which old party letter they put after their name, have gotten so dictatorial, so authoritarian, so elitist, that their leftist, populist comrades in other nations have taken to criticizing them for their decrees and demands in the midst of the Pandemic Panic.

The latest? As reported in Life News, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO), said that leaders who impose lockdown measures on their population to combat COVID-19 are like dictators who let their “authoritarian instincts show.”

Speaking on 2 December, I am certain his eyes were fixed on two of the United Mexican States’ neighbors: California, under the less-than-steady but always authoritarian rule of El Jefe Gavin Newsom. And his thuggish and always-greedy General Assembly. And of course, the once-lovely land of New Mexico, under the iron rule of Caudillo and Empress Michelle Lujan Grisham. (Or is it La Caudilla? I think it is La Emperatriz.)

Indeed, both of them, but especially Lujan-Grisham, have demonstrated their complete distain for, and hatred, of traditional American freedoms, values, and liberties. Not just as the autocratic rulers of their respective states, but their entire political careers. Frankly, in 2020, New Mexico and California resemble other Latin American banana republics more than the tarnished and trashed ideals of American liberty.

And that is how they like it. Many New Mexicans heaved huge sighs of disappointment a couple of weeks ago when their Empress decided NOT to accept Creepy Uncle Joe’s nomination as Health and Human Services secretary. While no doubt she would have led his fight to force a Lockdown for all Fifty States and mandatory mask mandates even your own bedroom (alone or not), she apparently would prefer being La Caudilla de Nuevo Mexico where she knows her subjects well, than just another cog, however important, in Harris’ American-communist regime. (Oops, did I spill some beans there?) Much to the disappointment of many New Mexicans: Anglo, Hispanic, and AmerInd. Who remember what it was like to be free, once upon a time. And have an economy in which people could earn a living. Even evil nasty business-owners.

Not that California is much better. And again, there are many Californians (those who haven’t and maybe cannot escape the People’s Dictatorship) who are remembering old times and trying to get rid of Nuisance… excuse me, Newsom. Although California HAS voted a governor or two out of office in the past, and even overthrown a governor (as I recall), few people have much hope of that happening this time. Of course the more people his lovely enforcers arrest for such crimes as surfing by themselves, or singing in church, or sitting on the beach a hundred feet from anyone but not wearing a mask? They might get enough votes to can him. (His enforcers? The once-respected CHiPs, of course: the California Highway Patrol. Who can’t be bothered to break up demonstrations that are looting and burning businesses, but CAN break up peaceful assemblies of protestors who aren’t wearing masks.)

Of course, with the stated agenda and objectives of the incoming Creepy Uncle Joe and fans, both states will be able to do an even BETTER job of imitating the likes of Maduro’s Venezuela, Peron’s Argentina, and Pinochet’s Chile. Just another pair of Latino dictatorships. Especially once they can ignore silly things like freedom of speech, the right to bear arms, and more. After all, they’ve already eliminated the freedom of assembly with nary a whimper from their own Supreme Courts or the Nine Nazgul in DC.

Ain’t it great to see what wonderful tiding we have for Christmas, 2020?

People of New Mexico, People of California. We do NOT want you as refugees here in South Dakota, or Wyoming – or even Colorado, bad as it is. We don’t want the attitudes that elected your dictators and your legislatures and your spineless judges to contaminate us. Stay home and go fight for your own liberty, to regain it. Maybe with enough toil and sweat and blood, you won’t sell it for a bowl of rotten porridge the next time.

Is it time yet? Freedom = I won’t

As the “reality” of yet another corrupt, fraudulent, “social-justice warrior” federal administration (feral regime) grows closer and closer, it is once again time to ask a couple of critical questions:

  1. How can we, to quote Harry Browne, live free in an unfree world?
  2. Is it, to restate Claire Wolfe’s question, time to shoot them?

More about propaganda and making poor choices

As discussed in a recent commentary, when the truth is not told, or is buried and hard to find, people make bad decisions because they are not fully informed of the actual situation. This is true for individuals and families and businesses, and MORE so especially for governments. (Who have lots of other reasons to make bad decisions.)

Which is why, practically, propaganda is a really, really bad idea. We talked about the myths concerning federal student loans last time.

Now lets talk about the Pandemic Panic… some more.

A little example of brainwashing in 2020 – who pays for stupid ideas?

A frequent campaign promise and issue, forgiving student debt seems to be fairly high up the agenda of the potentially-incoming Biden-Harris regime. We are talking big bucks, and that naturally has a lot of us riled.

The response to the issue illustrated how many people (virtually everyone?) in the Fifty States has been brainwashed by the mainstream media’s and politicians’ propaganda. Propaganda disseminated constantly for decades in multiple ways, starting with the schools. Propaganda so pervasive and successful it can be rightly called a form of brainwashing.

Brainwashing makes someone believe something (usually radically different ideas) by using systematic pressure. Sometimes with force: forcefeeding “facts” by various means. Those ideas can be true, but usually are not.

Lessons learned: the 2020 election fiasco

“The people who cast votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything,” said Joseph Stalin.

Never was the truth of that statement proved more than in the Fifty States in 2020. We are constantly told by the media, the politicians, and the bureaucrats that there is “no evidence of significant voter fraud.” That is, of course, because the fraud we are seeing is NOT “voter” fraud. It is “vote-counter” fraud.

Is he right? Staging and knowing corruption and fraud in elections

Rob Morse published this screed on his blog SlowFacts this weekend.

Is he right? (I am not necessarily endorsing anything that Mr. Morse is stating, of course, so don’t get your intestines in a knot – just throwing it out to make some points.)

Will it make a difference? Texas et al election lawsuit

Ever been to one of the meteor craters in West Texas or Arizona. Impressive, eh?

Texas has filed a lawsuit against four other States over the 2020 elections. It has just been joined by Louisiana and Missouri; added to Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and South Dakota: that is eleven States. Many say more States will join as well.

See the source image

Townhall seems to have a good news report – and a little bit of analysis – of this action. To this engineer, non-attorney, it seems to make sense. In fact, several of us discussed whether or not some state would try just this, several weeks ago.

Here comes the occupation!

The BBC reports that Trump has ordered virtually all US troops out of Somalia, to be done by 15 January 2021. That gives them just enough time to deplane and dig in around the White House, before the supposed day of transfer of power from The Donald to Uncle Joe. Trump’s objective, clearly, is to seize permanent power in America, even at the cost of giving up some of America’s overseas empire.
