The video is of Paul Harvey from the 1960s and his warning to the U.S. about the growth of government and its power. Rings very true today.

Election Cheating: It’s what Demoncrats do
Kamala’s Economic Agenda: Communism
In an opinion piece in the Washinton Post, the author notes the following: “In a news release Wednesday, her campaign (Kamala’s) said the first 100 days of her presidency would include the āfirst-ever federal ban on price gouging on food and groceries ā setting clear rules of the road to make clear that big corporations canāt unfairly exploit consumers to run up excessive corporate profits on food and groceries.āccording to a release from her campaign, the biggest issue.”
Haven’t we (the U.S.) seen price controls before, and how did that work out?
The author also provides a little advice to Kamala’s campaign: when your opponent calls you a communist, perhaps you shouldn’t respond with a communist plan.
Government Economic Data
Yeah, it is about as reliable as the MSM.
Supreme Court hammers the Administrative State
As you may have heard, the Supreme Court issued an opinion overturning what is known as the Chevron deference. The MSM and Democrats are going crazy as a result of the 6-3 decision. In the dissent, Justice Kagan went after the majority saying this was a power grab by the judicial branch.
Is it?
My perspective is that the decision does nothing but force congress to do its job. If a law is not clear, those who made the law should clarify it, not some government agency. Do you really think that we the people get the benefit of the doubt in that situation? Not a chance.
Realistically, the Court has been ignoring Chevron for the last few years. This decision merely returns to congress what it needs to be doing: making clear and concise law.
House Passes 2-year Warrantless Search
As reported at Instapundit, the incompetent and impotent House Republicans passed a 2-year FISA extension allowing the government to spy on you without a warrant. āSpeaker Mike Johnson scaled back the measure to two years from five after Donald J. Trump had urged Republicans to ākillā it. An effort to require warrants to search for Americansā messages failed on a tie.” I guess that is a sign that the intelligence agencies are so incompetent overseas that they will just focus on those who oppose the regime here in the U.S.
Oh wait. Maybe this is why they are letting terrorists and undocumented people into the country illegally. Get all of them here, and spy on them while they are here given they suck in international intelligence gathering. Yeah, that must be it because those in our government are so smart and want to do what is best for the average citizen.
Remember, our taxes pay for this incompetence.
Michelle Obama, the Savior?
Warner Todd Huston has a piece over at The Lid suggesting that Michelle O is angling for the Democratic nomination. I couldn’t agree with him more. Why not make history a second time with the same family, i.e. first woman president to go along with fthe first black president. In his piece, Warner points out the fact the DNC national nominating convention is in Chicago, it makes it a perfect backdrop of the O’s to ride in to make history and save the nation from Trump.
If she does run, I would expect her to win. Why? Well, most all women will vote for her which will give her a majority right there. Add to that, their men and you have a lot of people, and perhaps too big of a majority to overcome.
This is probably the one thing Dan Bongino and I disagree about. He believes she is a much too private person to run. I don’t know. I think she can be bought (e.g. her “no show” job at the hospital in Chicago as Rush used to say), so a nice fat donation to their foundation should do the trick. That money makes its way into the Obama family fortune after her term.
January 6th: The Day Government Came After Its Citizens
Many of us thought the way the government/media complex was covering the situation was extremely odd. Our suspicions have only increased over the last three years as bits and pieces of what happened have come out. Now, we know there is a lot more to this story that has been hidden from us by the Uniparty and the media. However, there are a few true media outlets that have continued pursuing the truth about J6.
One of the people who have been on this since the beginning is Darren Beattie of Revolver News (http://revolvernews.com). He has continued pressing on this, and a couple of days ago, put to bed something the media has steered clear from: the “pipe bombs” found at both the RNC and DNC on January 6th. In his article Secret Service Foreknowledge or Criminal Negligence? Damning New Evidence Surfaces In FBIās January 6 āPipe Bombā Story, Darren uses video from the Capitol Hill policy to destroy the narratives put forward by the uniparty and the media complex about the pipe bombs at the RNC and DNC.
Everything points to a government that was intent on beating back questions about a stolen election. We have a state sponsored murder of a former military person by a DC policeman who actually received a promotion as a result. We are at the edge of the abyss. Where do we go from here?
We have Idiots and Losers for Leaders!
Random thoughts on the passing scene that is the U.S.A today:
- Our “leaders” are leading us down a path of doom and destruction. Over the last 150 years, these losers have infected every institution. They now control local, state and federal governments. They control the public school system in the majority of the states. They have imported over 20 million non-citizens in what I refer to as the Invasion solely to squelch the impact at the voting booth of US citizens who disagree with our “Leaders.”
- You got a small glimpes of what our country’s future looks like after the Invastion. In Chicago, there were videos on X (formerly Twitter) showing legal US citizens being pushed behind illegal citizens for food and other benefits. This will only get worse since th government blew its wad on COVID. Now, all the incremental purchasing of votes done by politicians will negatively impact their ability to do so in the future leading to another war between ourselves. Just as the communists, dictators, and collectivists have sought to do over the last 100 years.
- COVID really opened the eyes of many parents who saw first hand what garbage the curriculum of most public schools really entailed. Sowing division between the student and their parents; indoctrinating them into the collectivist mindset; teaching them about sex at an age where their minds aren’t capable of understanding;
- This is what communists, collectivists, facists, whatever you want to call them do. First, they need the young, so they take control of the educational system. Secondly, they need insulation from criticism and the “silent majority”, so they change the laws in a way to immunize themselves from criticism and firing. Third, they change the curriculum in the schools and change the language so that words, not actions, mean more. Fourth, they weaponize the language and use the courts to take out (i.e. cancel) people who disagree with them. Finally, with the country’s culture destroyed in the minds of the youth after teaching them that their country is horrible, they use the young to bring about a revolution that cements them in power and allows them to distribute resources in a way to maximize their power and wealth.
We have been led down a path of destruction. The country was founded upon the premise that humans are imperfect and more often than not use government as a mechanism to enslave the population to benefit the few. Our founders forwarned us about this centralization of power, but we refused to heed those warnings.
Jewish man, 69, dies after clash during dueling protests over Israel-Palestinian conflict in LA area
Why isn’t this being discussed? I thought the left was peaceful. CBS‘s LA affiliate has an article.
